My age has always been an issue. Not for me, but for everyone else. I was nine at the time. On my first day of high school, my grandparents, and the press insisted on going along. I made them walk four paces behind me, since I didn't want to stand out.
The next morning I was ashamed to learn that the Associated Press picked up a photo of me on tippy toes trying to reach the top of my locker. The words on the photo read: "High school may not be a big stretch for nine-year-old Millicent, but her locker sure is."
In time things calmed down. I had a difficult start, though. It's embarrassing enough being a foot shorter and five years younger than your classmates, but then to have your grandmother cemented to you makes it even worse.
My grandmother, Maddie, and I made an odd couple, but at least it meant I had somebody to talk to while the other kids make it a point to ignore me. There, she was expected to hand me over directly to Gaspar, my late French instructor. We were well into the first week and waiting outside Gaspar's class when someone, I never did figure out who, made a remark of offence using the words "boring", "brainiac" and "Millicent" in the same run-on sentence (连写句).
Believing I was being laughed at, my grandmother warned my classmates that she knew kungfu and was not afraid to use it. To show how serious she was, Maddie did a series of complicated martial arts (武术) moves.
When she was done and the applause gradually stopped Maddie was still in her leg-split position.
"Get up," I whispered, "Everyone's staring."
"No," she replied, "I appear to be stuck."
By then Gaspar had arrived. He asked several bigger boys to carry my grandmother to the school clinic as she waved goodbye to first-period French.
How old was the author, when he was in high school
A. 18. B. 16. C. 17. D. 9.
25.Millicent felt ashamed of the picture on the newspaper because________.
A.she felt herself criticized by the reporters
B.she was too old to reach the locker
C.she was closely followed by family members
D.she didn't want others to notice her difference
26.What was the grandmother good at in her opinion
A.Martial arts. B.Ballet.
C.Football. D.Guitar.
27.Which words best describe Millicent's grandmother
A.Energetic and protective. B.Patient and greedy.
C.Gentle and impatient. D.Hardworking and shy.
C
After entering high school, you may find there are many clubs at your school. You may think you’re too busy to join one. But as a former high school student,I can tell you joining a school club can greatly benefit you.
Your old friends may have left you after entering high school. And it means you need to meet new people. Joining a club allows you to talk with others and find those who have similar interests as you. Based on my experience, I have met some of my best friends from club activities,which opened up many new doors for me.
Another really nice thing about joining a club is that it looks really good on your applications (申请书). Trying new things is something that looks really good on any application. Outgoing is considered a very good quality which shows that you are determined and willing to put yourself out there and best of all try new things. What’s more, it can help you develop skills that can serve you during future college interviews.
Besides, joining a club can make students use their free time wisely. Most teens go to schools, then go back home and spend the rest of the day in front of a screen. Teens are also very likely to fall into the wrong crowd, which could lead to some bad results. Clubs are good places to spend time with good people to fall back on.
The most important reason why you should join a club is the long term benefits it brings. The classroom isn’t the only learning environment in a school. The skills you learn in clubs are necessary ones that can be used in everyday life, which I think is the final goal of joining a club. Things such as meeting and speaking to new people,making the most of time,and being organized are those you will meet every single day of your life, but you can learn all of them in clubs.
So if you haven’t joined a school club yet,you know what you should do now.
Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “ benefit” in
paragraph 1.
A.be good for B.support C.make use of D.cheer up
29.In the author’s opinion, what’s the greatest benefit of joining a club
A.Developing new hobbies. B.Meeting different people.
C.Gaining useful life skills. D.Making use of your free time.
30.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text
A.To give tips on making new friends.
B.To show ways to set up school clubs.
C.To teach students to enjoy a better school life.
D.To encourage high school students to join a club.
31.In which section of a magazine,may this text appear
A.Health. B.School life. C.Culture. D.Social work.
D
Losing weight comes with a lot of health benefits-including making your brain sharper.
Yes, it turns out that overweight may damage cognitive functions such as memory and attention. There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance. Losing weight, therefore, may help improve these mental functions, according to a new research led by John Gunstad, assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University.
Growing evidence suggests that being fat is linked to cognitive deficits(缺陷). So Gunstad and his team guessed that losing weight might improve mental function. For their study, they measured memory and attention in a group of 150 overweight participants, some of whom had some kind of operation for weight loss and some did not. All of the volunteers completed mental skills tests to assess their abilities of memory and attention at the beginning of the study, and again 12 weeks later. To begin with, about 24% of the patients showed damaged learning and 23%showed signs of poor memory when tested. At the end of the study, those who had lost weight after operation improved their scores into the average or above average range for cognitive functions. Scores for the volunteers who didn't lose weight dropped even further.
The study helped Gunstad to find out whether losing weight had any effect on mental function. Now that he's seen the positive effect that weight loss can have on memory and attention, he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional way-eating healthier and getting more active. He expects that losing weight in this way will have a similarly positive effect on the brain. "If we can improve the condition with operations, then we can probably produce the same change with behavioral weight loss as well," he says.
There is less research on overweight and cognitive functions 认知功能because
researchers ________.
A.believe overweight only affects our body
B.have focused on ways to sharpen people's mind
C.do not consider overweight a main cause for low cognitive ability
D.are clear about the relation between weight and mental functions
33.The result of Gunstad's study shows that __________.
A.losing weight has little effect on people s memory
B.losing weight can improve people's mental functions
C.overweight people are likely to have psychological problems
D.overweight people's abilities of concentration differ greatly
34.What is Gunstad planning to prove next in his study
A.Slim people are smarter than overweight people.
B.Healthy diet is better than exercise in losing weight.
C.Traditional ways of losing weight are better than operations.
D.Overweight people will get smarter by taking more exercise.
35.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Body Weight and Health B.Losing Weight by Operations
C.Ways to Improve Mental Functions D.Losing Weight to Sharpen Your Mind.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I put one last box into the back seat and closed the car door. It felt as if I were closing the door on my whole life. At first, I was excited when Mom told me she’d gotten a fantastic new job at an animal hospital. Then, because she always saves the bad news for last, she told me the really terrible part. The hospital wasn’t in our city; it was miles away in the middle of nowhere. And I’m definitely not a country girl.
I stood beside the car, taking a last look at our building. To most people, it probably just looked like any other old apartment house, but I loved every brick. Just then, I saw my best friends, Hana and Leo, come to see me off. While Hana played a cool riff(重复乐段)on her trumpet(小号), Leo sang, “We will miss you, Celia.” I hugged them tightly and jumped into the car fast so no one could see me tear up. As Mom drove away, I waved goodbye to my friends, my neighborhood, and my life.
We rode a while in silence, and I held my violin case for comfort. Leo, Hana, and I had been writing songs for our band, but that was all over now. “Don’t think of this as an ending,” Mom said, with her knack(技能)for reading my mind. “It’s an exciting beginning. It’s normal to be a bit anxious about unfamiliar things, but you don’t need to be afraid of them.” I kept silent and looked out the window as crowded, exciting city streets turned first into tasteless suburban shopping strips(商业街)and then into endless, boring trees and fields of corn. We finally arrived at our new home, a two-floored wooden farmhouse. Mom said I could go explore. Mom never let me go out alone in the city, so maybe a bit more freedom would be one consolation(慰藉)of living here.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Feeling that country life might turn out okay, I wondered off, taking my violin with me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I couldn’t resist, so I took out my violin and began to play with the boy I came across in the country.

【答案】18. B 19. A 20. C
【原文】
M: When people say “culture”, we think of art and history. But one very famous symbol in American culture is a cartoon. We all know and love the black mouse with two large round ears — Mickey Mouse. He first appeared in the cartoon Steamboat Willie. When this cartoon came out in New York on November 18, 1928, it was the first cartoon with sound and music. The man behind Mickey was Walt Disney. He became very rich and successful. In the 1930s, he made 87 cartoons with Mickey.
Some people might ask how this cartoon animal became so popular. One of the main reasons is that Mickey was like a common man, but he always tried to face any danger. In his early films, Mickey was unlucky and had many problems such as losing his house or girlfriend, Minnie. However, he was always ready to try his best. People went to the cinema to see the “little man” win. Most of them wanted to be like Mickey.
On November 18, 1978, Mickey became the first cartoon character to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Today’s cartoons are usually not so simple as little Mickey Mouse, but everyone still knows and loves him. Who has a pair of ears more famous than Mickey’s

语法填空
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,作者是一个女生,她的梦想是成为一名飞行员,三年级的时候老师这个梦想被认为是神话,高中老师鼓励我努力追求梦想,最终作者取得了成功,成为了机长。
56. driven 【解析】考查非谓语动词。动词drive与主语I构成被动关系,要用过去分词做状语,所以句中要填过去分词形式driven。
57. my
58. which 【解析】考查定语从句。句意:老师说这个梦想是神话故事,这让我崩溃和失望。本题中关系代词which指代前面一句话的内容,引导定语从句并在句中做主语。所以要填which。
59. Finally 【解析】考查副词。在英语里副词通常做状语修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子;而形容词通常做定语表语修饰名词代词。句中应该使用副词修饰整个句子,所以要填副词Finally。
60.the 【解析】考查定冠词。句意:在高中的时候,我的英语老师Ms Dorothy给了我们同样的任务。定冠词the修饰same task,表示强调。所以要填定冠词the。
61.thought 【解析】考查时态。句意:我想起了以前我写过的报告。本句叙述高中所发生的事情,用一般过去时。所以要填thought。
62.If
63. delighted 【解析】考查形容词。句意:我感觉很高兴也有点害怕。系动词feel后面要接形容词构成系表结构,而且所填的形容词要和scared构成并列关系,所以要填形容词delighted。
64.of/about 【解析】考查固定短语。句意:我告诉她我的梦想是成为飞行员。短语the dream of doing sth做某事的梦想。所以要填介词of/about。
65.to achieve 【解析】考查固定句式。句式It takes sb some time to do sth做某事花费某人…时间。其中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式短语to achieve my ambition。所以要填to achieve。
Dear Jack,
I’m sorry to hear that you are lonely in a new school because you find it hard to make friends because of your shyness.
Now I’d like to offer you some advice.First of all, it is normal for you to feel lonely because you are living now in a new environment. Second,you should greet your teachers and classmates when meeting them on campus. Third, it will be a good idea if you often express your ideas in class and take an active part in class activities, which can help them learn more about you.
I believe you are sure to make new friends soon if you show your friendliness to others.I hope everything will be fine with you in the future.
Yours,
Li Hua

【答案】
Feeling that country life might turn out okay. I wandered off, taking my violin with me. Suddenly l heard something I wasn’t expecting-a beautiful, jazzy tune. I pushed through some corn only to come face-to-face with a cow. Then another hot jazz riff floated through the air. I turned around and saw a tall kid playing an old saxophone in a field of corn. His music was fantastic, and he didn’t dress the way I figured a country kid would. This guy was wearing clothes that made him look cool, like a famous performer.
I couldn’t resist, so I took out my violin and began to play with the boy I came across in the country. The boy looked surprised, but he didn’t miss a beat. We played together, and by the end, a cow was tapping her tail to the rhythm. When we finished, we introduced ourselves to each other and became friends. We also decided to write songs together. I looked at my new friend, the cheerful cow and tall corn. I could feel my thoughts about country life already changing, and I had a feeling it would change a lot more.
