While at first anxiety and depression would come and go, it eventually became constant part of my life. I was so set on finding the solution to overcoming it that I tried everything from which I was in college to graduate school: mood-changing medication, special teas, yoga, think I read about in books, and advice given by doctors. Despite this, I still felt I hadn’t even come close to managing the problem. But one afternoon, I spotted an article in a magazine talking about how dogs were all to help people with anxiety and depression. The next day, I managed to get a dog — corgi (柯基犬). However, once the “puppy excitement” went away, my anxiety and depression came back as usual. One morning, I woke up with those familiar feelings again. I didn’t want to get out of bed. I turned to pull the covers back over my head and give up. That’s when I saw my pet—Buddy. Buddy started jumping all over me, licking (舔) my face, and letting me know that it was time to go outside. It was as if he were saying, “There’s no time to be sad! The world is amazing!” And for the first time in my life, on a day when my anxiety - 4 - and depression were strong, I got out of bed. I put on my winter clothes and went for a walk in the snow with my new friend. I realized at that moment, walking down the street in winter , my life was changing. I really was a new girl. Sure, I still have days when I feel down or anxious. But with Buddy by my side, I’ve finally learned how to manage these feelings and emotions. 16. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A.

C Dear Basketball From the moment I started rolling my dad’s tube socks And shooting imaginary Game-winning shots In the Great Western Forum I knew one thing was real: I fell in love with you. —Kobe Bryant (Dear Basketball) The New Gorgeous Starting Kobe Bryant has a real shot to add Oscar-winner to his extensive resume at 2018 Academy Awards with his short animated film Dear Basketball. The retired Los Angeles Laker talked about the nomination and how his six-minute short film came together. He said that he loves “storytelling every bit as much as I love Basketball”. But as Kobe Bryant has taken on a number of different projects after his retirement from basketball, he explained what being nominated for Hollywood’s top honor feels like: “I’ve always been told that as basketball players the expectation is that you play. This is all you know. This is all you do. Don’t think about handling finances. Don’t think about going into business. Don’t think that you want to be a write- that’s cute. I got that a lot. What do you want to do when you retire? ‘Well, I want to be a storyteller.’ That’s cute. This is... a form of validation for people to look and say. ‘OK, he really can do something other than dribble and shoot.’” What he seems to be saying is that the feeling of winning an Oscar —something so unexpected for an NBA legend—is crazier than what he felt winning rings, something - 7 - he spent years focusing on in a craft (职业) he’d been working hard at. (An extract from Kobe Bryant: Great Man Shall Never Retire) 23. Where would you be most likely to find the text? A. In a poster. B. In a newspaper. C. On a notice board. D. In a finance report. 24.

He has lived up to people’s expectations of basketball players. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选 项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Rumors (摇言) are not always nasty, but they can be especially annoying when the rumormonger spreads something against you.

As we all know, most people have tried writing poetry at some time, for example, at school. For children, it is a good way to explore language and have fun with words as well as to express themselves. What deserves mentioning is that writing poetry can be a form of therapy. Writing poetry can help people deal with changes in their lives, death or feelings of sadness, drug or alcohol problems or serious illness. When you feel down, you can write positive poems to be confident again. When you are ill, you can write funny poems to serve as very good medicine. In a word, writing poems have benefits for people of all different backgrounds and ages! Thank you! 【选答题四】 With smart phones functioning more and more powerfully, they are occupying more and more time in people’s daily life. As can be seen everywhere, “screen slaves” are glued to their smart phones while eating, walking, riding, attending a meeting, and even while crossing roads. What can account for the special phenomenon? First, smart phones can provide enough convenience for us. For example, they can help us communicate more easily and know more about the outside world. Besides, many young people are crazy about playing games on smart phones. Personally, depending on smart phones too much is a kind of illness. We should use smart phones without feeling like a drug addict. We should use more time to enjoy real-life activities. Use your cell phone and don’t let it use you.
