He needed help. So Williams leaned over the table with a fork and a knife and cut up his ham for him. It might have ended there, but a customer named Laura Wolf was struck enough to take a picture and post it online.‎ ‎“I didn't know the photo was taken until a couple of hours later，” Williams told the Houston Chronicle. “When I saw it, it's just something I would do for anybody. I was so busy in here, and I actually took the time to stop and hear what he had to say instead of walking past him.”‎ It apparently meant something to others too. As of Sunday, more than 130,000 people had reacted to the post and nearly 7,000 have shared it.But the story has extended beyond the Internet. Williams, a recent Texas City High School graduate, was honored at a ceremony, Thursday, with a $16,000 scholarship to Texas Southern University. Williams has reportedly been working fulltime at the Waffle House to earn money toward school. Texas Southern University has assigned a counselor to help her begin her degree and she is planning to study business management.‎ Media at the local, national and international level have all picked up on the story. It is a moment among several in recent years, captured in a picture, put online, and capturing the attention of the Internet: like a New York City police officer giving a homeless man a pair of boots, or a restaurant goer whose wife died of cancer anonymously (匿名地) paying for the meal of another cancer patient.‎ ‎21．Why did Laura Wolf take the photo and post it online?‎ A．She was really into recording some small gestures.‎ B．She wanted to draw attention to the restaurant.‎ C．She was touched by the considerate waitress.‎ D．She got paid by the restaurant to do so.‎ ‎22．Why is a New York City police officer mentioned in the last paragraph?‎ A．To prove the power of the media.‎ B．To advocate helping those in need.‎ C．To show more people tend to use the Internet.‎ D．To argue the Internet is the center of attention.‎ ‎23．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?‎ A．Wide web, colorful life B．Small gesture, big effect C．Little effort, big reward D．Young mind, great influence B Life can sometimes go_haywire rather like the feeling you get when you've lost control of your moving car. It's a feeling of complete helplessness and panic that makes us feel overwhelmed (被压垮的)．‎ In most cases, there is a difference between our expectations and reality. The greater the difference, the greater the feeling is of being overwhelmed. This difference is often created when our expectations are too demanding or when reality changes in a way we did not expect. Think of the weather ruining your carefully made travel plans to get across the state. Think of that illness that made you stay in bed. While we may be feeling overwhelmed with everything going on in our lives right now, there are some steps we can take to regain a sense of control of our lives.‎ We all know we should control our emotion properly and we can be affected greatly when we are overwhelmed, but feeling overwhelmed is part of life. When we're feeling overwhelmed, it ‎ only means we are living, breathing human beings. For life is like a roller coaster ride with its ups, downs and turns. It's also like the season with its alternating periods of relative calm and periods of varying degrees of stress and anxiety. Sometimes we forget this.‎ No matter how much we try, we may not be able to control reality. But we can adjust our expectations to match reality. This may mean revising our goals and tasks or quitting projects. It may feel like failure in the moment, like giving up, but this ability is an opportunity to create success in the long term. Working with reality rather than against it can give us hope.‎ When we're feeling overwhelmed, we can easily fall into an allornothing (孤注一掷)．We may overlook the things we manage to accomplish when we feel overwhelmed. But celebrating our small wins creates space for gratitude to take hold in our hearts. Trade our expectations for appreciation and our whole world changes in an instant. Celebrating wins (whatever size！) allows us to clearly see the progress we are making. Acknowledging our small bites and celebrating our wins however small makes us have a more accepting attitude toward the opportunities, the gifts and the joys in our lives.‎ ‎24. The underlined phrase “go haywire” can be replaced by ________.‎ A．be in a mess B．become dull C．bring surprises D．change quickly ‎25. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?‎ A．We fail to control our emotion sometimes.‎ B．We must learn to control our emotion well.‎ C．It is natural for everyone to feel overwhelmed.‎ D．Feeling overwhelmed is a big barrier to our life.‎ ‎26. What should we do when we can't control reality?‎ A．Accept our failure and quit. B．Change our goal based on reality.‎ C．Try our best to change reality. D．Find a better way to realize our goal.‎ ‎27. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A．Small bites are better than big wins. ‎ B．We should show gratitude to others.‎ C．Celebrating small wins helps us make progress.‎ D．We should appreciate even small achievements of ours.‎ C In a foreign country, a man visited a local restaurant. He didn't speak their language. He ordered something indecipherable off the menu. When the waiter brought him a plate of delicious looking fried noodles, he smiled and made an OK sign at the waiter with his thumb and forefinger linked in a circle. Looking angry, the waiter then picked up the dish and thrown it to his lap. What he did wrong, he wondered. Well, nothing is quite as it seems when it comes to using hand gesture in another country.‎ Gestures have been used to replace words in many countries, and they are often specific to a given culture. Gesture may mean something complimentary in one culture, but is highly offensive (冒犯) in another.‎ The gesture “thumbup” is commonly misinterpreted. In English, it is popularly known as “thumbs up”， despite the fact that the action is commonly performed with only one hand. Englishspeaking Caucasians use it to signal “OK”， which is the same meaning as O．K.ring gesture. The two can in fact be used almost interchangeably.‎ Avoid using this gesture in Southern Sardina or Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight. While American, British and Australian would use the thumb up to signal hitchhiking to the drivers, this message will not encourage a Greek driver or motorist to stop to give them a ride.‎ There are no right or wrong signals, only cultural differences. Lack of cultural understanding will lead to disharmony among people from different cultures. When we know what to look for, such encounters with other cultures are actually very interesting, fascinating and fun. It is certainty a great topic to discuss over a cup of coffee and cakes.‎ ‎28．What did the man in the first paragraph do wrong?‎ A．He misunderstood the waiter. B．He didn't realize cultural differences.‎ C．He ordered something off the menu. D．He made the signal in a rude way.‎ ‎29．What does the underlined word in the second paragraph mean?‎ A．Full of admiration. B．Full of aggression.‎ C．Full of complexity. D．Full of certainty.‎ ‎30．What's the purpose of the passage?‎ A．To explain the meaning of different gestures.‎ B．To tell stories about different cultures.‎ C．To advise us to have an understanding of cultural differences.‎ D．To persuade people from different countries live in harmony.‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Things only people who have worked overseas can understand If you have ever worked or lived overseas， I’m pretty sure you can understand the following things!‎ We do not automatically become fluent (流利的) in another language. A lot of people believe that changing your geographic location can improve your language learning skills quickly. 31 Language application takes time and has a number of factors that play into a person’s level of fluency.‎ We feel extremely lonely at times. Yes， living abroad can be wonderful. 32 Sometimes， we think that no one back at home understands our true feelings and life challenges， but a lot of other people travel long term and work abroad. Maybe they are not facing the same problems as you， but they know exactly how you feel.‎ We don’t really like our birthdays. Usually， your special day ends with the last phone call you get from home and then you can look through all your greetings on social media. 33 You may throw a small party with some of your new friends， but it’s going to be nothing compared with the goodold feasts you used to have with your loved ones back at home.‎ ‎34 Too often we simply can’t tell you if we will be coming home for holidays this season. Sometimes ，our working/living permits require us to stay in the country for at least a year. Adding up the flight costs and additional travel expenses， traveling home becomes quite a challenge for us.‎ We will change. 35 You become more mature， independent and openminded . Usually， you return home as a better person than the one you left as.‎ A． The truth is： it isn’t like that.‎ B ．We may not plan to move back home.‎ C． We don’t know when we’ll come home next.‎ D． However， it can get extremely lonely on some days too.‎ E． Living abroad makes us value the little things a lot.‎ F． Living and working abroad shape your personality a lot.‎ G． After that， you just act as if it’s another ordinary day in your life yet.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ On June 23, 1970, I had just left the Army after completing my oneyear duty in Vietnam.

If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.‎ Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.‎ Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. The scientists said that these children were often bullied(欺负)by their older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing ‎ up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.‎ You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame(责备)themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.‎ For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversations. And don't forget—if you are shy, you are not the only one.‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ 听力 01—05 CBBAA；06—10 CBAAB；11—15 BABCA；16—20 CCBAC；‎ 阅读21-23 CAB 24-27ACBD 28-30 BAC 31-35ADGCF 完形填空36-40 CCADB 41-45 ACABB 46-50 DCCAB 51-55 DDBAD 语法填空 ‎56. was born；考查动词的时态和语态的用法，一个人的出生都是在过去的，要用过去时态、被动语态。‎ ‎57. where ；这是一个where引导的定语从句，作前面的名词Oxford shire的定语。‎ ‎58. wounded；从后面的caught by来看，这里是讲“没被受伤、没被抓住”。‎ ‎59. the；“敌人”是特指的 ，所以用定冠词the。‎ ‎60. to go；“too + adj + to + V. ”是固定搭配，意思是“太……而不能”。‎ ‎61. met；由前面的When he was 25 years old特定的过去时间状语判断，要用一般过去时态。‎ ‎62. later；a year later，“一年之后”，固定模式。‎ ‎63. followed；空格后面的by来看，紧随其后，生了我姑姑，followed by 被……紧跟着。‎ ‎64. watching；这是固定搭配spend time (in) doing something，介词in省略了，后面加doing形式。‎ ‎65. with；短语be patient with somebody也是一个固定搭配，意思是“对……人有耐心”。‎ 第一节 应用文写作（满分15分）‎ ‎【范文背诵】‎ Dear Jack,‎ Glad to know that you will come to China for the 2022 Winter Olympic Games.

Nevertheless, they think shyness is a common phenomenon and it can be gotten rid of by attempting something new and starting talking with others.(62 words)‎
