Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than college students to pursue her goal of earning a nursing
degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became
the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.
Jennifer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the
farm and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college,
working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After
graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her
career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-
Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-
year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer
received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: her husband worked two jobs to cover
the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed to
achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. “Some nights my
heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers," she says. However, her
children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation
graduate and an inspiration to her family-and that's pretty powerful.
21. What did Jennifer do after high school
A. She helped her dad with his work.
B. She ran the family farm on her own.
C. She supported herself through college.
D. She taught her sisters and brothers at home.
22. What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal
A. Her health. B. Her good name.
C. Her time with family. D. Her chance of promotion (提升).
23. What can we learn from Jennifer's story
A. Time is money. B. Hard work pays off.
C. Education is the key to success. D. Love breaks down misunderstandings.
B
At Jenner Park Primary School in Wales, pupils between the ages of seven and nine are writing letters to
people of a local care home. The initiative(倡议) sees children and their elderly pen pals exchange updates about
their lives, helping to build relationships between generations while also giving the children an understanding of
the value of writing letters by hand—an activity that's becoming less and less common.
Laura Johnson, the teacher who balance the scheme at Jenner Park, says," All of our writing is for a purpose.
That's the key in getting children to value handwriting.”"As soon as you put an audience there, knowing that
someone out there is going to be reading it—whether that's parents or another group of children—there's always
共 8 页，第 3 页
{#{QQABCQqEggCIABBAARhCUwWgCAOQkBCAAAoOAFAMsAAAQRFABCA=}#}
the real sense of pride to go along with it," says Johnson.
The school keeps a focus on handwriting throughout the years, from dedicated handwriting classes in the
pre-school to a calligraphy club offered to the older groups. It has created something called the pen license. It
allows younger children to move from using a pencil to pen once they've reached a certain standard. “There's a
lot of excitement about reaching that pen licence stage,” says Johnson.
Johnson adds that developing students' writing in this way matters for their life after school: “For us, it's
important that we create citizens of the future who have a set of life skills that can make them successful." The
development of technology is a challenge, she admits, but she also believes both tools have their place.
“Obviously we're competing with technology continuously," she says. "And I know there are people there saying
you don't need to bother about handwriting because tech is out there. But we don't see it as competing. We're
trying to get pupils to realize that there's a place for handwriting, and to know when it's important to use each."
24. Why does the school launch the initiative
A. To help children to find the meaning of handwriting.
B. To encourage children to show pity for the aged.
C. To persuade children to choose proper courses.
D. To urge children to know the audience.
25. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the school
A. Its after-class activities. B. Its practice in handwriting.
C. Its academic achievements. D. Its creativity in technology.
26. What can we infer from the last paragraph about handwriting
A. It will co-exist with technology. B. It will give way to technology.
C. It will win against technology. D. It will cause confusion to people.
27. Which can be a suitable title for the passage
A. Handwriting promotes the pen pal scheme
B. Slow communication reduces misunderstanding
C. Creative ideas for dealing with challenges gain popularity
D. Putting pen to paper contributes to a love of the written word
C
Feeling overloaded by your to-do list can certainly make you unhappy, but new research suggests that more
free time might not be the elixir many of us dream it could be.
In a new study released last week, researchers analyzed data from two large surveys about how Americans
spend their time. Together, the surveys included more than 35,000 replies. The researchers found that people with
more free time generally had higher levels of subjective(主观的) well-being-but only up to a point. People who
had around two hours of free time a day generally reported they felt better than those who had less time. But
people who had five or more hours of free time a day generally said they felt worse. So finally the free-time
“sweet spot” might be two to three hours per day, the findings suggest.
Part of finding this seemingly tricky "sweet spot" has to do with how people spend the extra time they have,
the researchers behind the new study argue. They carried out several smaller online experiments. In one they
asked participants to imagine having 3.5 to 7 free hours per day. They were asked to imagine spending that time
doing “productive" things (like exercising) or to imagine doing “unproductive" activities (like watching TV).
Study participants believed their well-being would suffer if they had a lot of free time during the day-but only if

{#{QQABCQqEggCIABBAARhCUwWgCAOQkBCAAAoOAFAMsAAAQRFABCA=}#}
they used it unproductively. Though that experiment was hypothetical (假设的), which is one limitation of the
new research, it's certainly in line with other research showing that being in a state of "flow" can be good for
people's mental health.
Of course, what feels "productive" is up to you. Many traditionally productive or purposeful activities can
be easy and fun. Engaging in a bit of low-key cardio(有氧运动), like walking and jogging, can help burn stress.
Free-time activities like reading or cooking are also known to put people in a state of flow.
28. What does the underlined word "elixir" in Paragraph 1 most probably mean
A. Magic solution. B. Physical power.
C. Psychological test. D. Relaxed atmosphere.
29. How did the researchers carry out the new study
A. By doing large-scale online surveys.
B. By giving interviews and mental tests.
C. By comparing respondents' backgrounds.
D. By conducting experiments and analyzing data.
30. What is a unique finding of the new research
A. Doing unproductive things leads to unhappiness.
B. Being in a state of flow benefits people's mental health.
C. Man's well-being is positively related to the free time they have.
D. How people spend their free time affects their sense of well-being.
31. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. The importance of burning stress.
B. Easy and fun activities to kill time.
C. Further explanation of productive activities.
D. The benefits of engaging in free-time activities.

Research shows that playful teasing (戏弄, 玩笑) between parents and their children can be a way to
strengthen relationships, bring up difficult topics, and just have fun. 32 Carol Bishop says, “You need
to recognize if they are enjoying it.” There are also rules about what is okay and not okay to tease your child
about. 33 Instead, tease kids about safe topics, like a messy room, or things that can be easily
changed.
Teasing should also be a two-way street. 34 If they go too far making fun of you, be sure not to
get angry. Instead, help them to learn limits and what may hurt others.
Teasing about a disappointing grade should only be used as a gentle reminder to study or do homework. It
shouldn't be focused on the ability because that could make the situation worse. It’s not wrong to say to your
child, “I'm disappointed that you got a C.” 35 You need to examine if there is a learning disability or
maybe they are depressed or being bullied.
From monsters (怪物) under the bed to darkness and noises, fears that may seem foolish to an adult may be
very real to a child. 36 In fact, it could make them worse. Teasing a child who is frightened about
something is not a way for them to broaden their horizon—you need to make them feel secure.

A. Kids often feel hurt when teased by others.
B. Topics like appearance and weight are not allowed.
C. Laughing or teasing won't help them overcome their fears.
D. But then you must work with them to figure out the cause.
E. But parents need to recognize when teasing becomes hurtful.
F. You have to be willing to let your child tease you about things.
G. Teasing a child about sports performance can cause a child to quit the sport.

Family meals are important in living with a family. A recent survey 52 (show) that most children
and their family share a meal at least four times a week. 53 my point of view, this is a positive sign,
because dining together is able to benefit family members.
Firstly, 54 (have) a meal together can help a family stick together, which helps strengthen each
family member's sense of belonging and reduce family 55 (tension). Family members can relax together
during this time, and enjoy each other's company. Routine communication also helps family members show each
other's appreciation which can not only 56 (stress) on Thanksgiving Day.
Secondly, family meals also play 57 important part in a child's growth. For example, parents are
able to observe their children's psychology(心理) 58 (base) on their deeds and expressions. And studies
show that children eating with their families are more likely 59 (get ) high grades in the end than those
who do not eat family meals. And such kids are 60 (definite) to be more social and make more friends.
Finally, Through family meals, parents can also ensure that their children are eating different foods to have
strong bodies. It's because children 61 eat together with their families can be taught to be not particular
about meals.

第二节 (满分 25 分)
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。
My dad doesn’t write me letters. And he doesn’t always remember my birthday or wedding anniversary --
or even how old I am sometimes.
But I only need to look around me to be reminded of his love. He restored a 100-year-old rocking chair after
I told him how much I wanted one. When I moved into my first apartment, he spent his weekends in a small
space replacing pipes. And when I lost a blue stone from a favorite necklace, he worked his magic with common
tools.
The four greatest words I know are “Dad will build it”.
I could never forget when I was seven, one day we walked by a toy store window. There in the corner was
the most unusual doll house had ever seen. It was shaped like an upturned log. Little oval(椭圆形) windows were
cut into it decorated with white curtains and framed by tiny balconies(阳台).
“Oh, Daddy,” I said, “isn’t it beautiful Do you think Santa Clause will bring it to me ”
Dad looked at the $100 price tag(标签) -- too high a figure in those days. “I think even Santa couldn't pay
for this house,” he joked, hiking up his belt, as he often does when he’s nervous. “Maybe one day, sweetheart.”
Dad probably hoped I’d forget about the doll house, but I kept talking about it.
On Christmas morning, I awoke early and raced downstairs. In the faint light, I made out some wrapped
boxes under the tree-- but none large enough to contain my doll house.
Paragraph 1:
Dad could see my disappointment. __________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2:
Four months later, a beautiful doll house was in front of me. ______________________________________
