Recess (休息) was in full swing. She remained awkward around her classmates. She seemed unsure of what to do or say, yet I could see her eyes longing for acceptance. Many students had already decided that her friendship would not be worth the energy required to overcome the awkwardness. Others teased her. Most ignored her—except for one.‎ Brianna, the class clown, was making the other students laugh, as usual. “Brianna, do you see Molly down there? Would you mind walking down there and inviting her to come up here with the rest of us?”‎ Brianna sighed. I could tell she didn’t want to sacrifice precious minutes of her own recess to do what I was asking of her, but I also knew her heart. She often thought of others before herself - a rare character for anyone, much less a kid.‎ Knowing this choice was hard for her, I pulled out a D-buck, our class currency. Though bribery (行贿) was not the ideal way to handle this situation, I needed her cooperation.‎ ‎“Here, I’ll pay you for your time.”‎ She offered an insincere smile, grasped the green paper, and headed down the hill.‎ As the rest of the children screamed and laughed, my eyes locked on Brianna as she neared the picnic table. Molly could be difficult, and I wouldn’t have been surprised if she sent Brianna back alone, refusing her invitation. When she encouraged herself to a standing position, I sighed with relief.‎ A minute later, I felt a lap on my shoulder. “Here, Mrs. D.” She handed me the D-buck.‎ ‎“Why?” I asked.‎ ‎“I shouldn’t keep this.” Her eyes fell to her feet, guilt radiating from her quiet voice. “I don’t want Molly to think I only went to get her so I could earn a D-buck. She’s my friend.” [来源:ZxA moment later, they were all laughing again, and who should I see among them, laughing for the first time that week? Molly.‎ ‎4. How was Molly in the author’s eyes?‎ A.

Regretful. C. Grateful. D. Puzzled.‎ ‎27. Which of the following can be the best tittle for the text?‎ A. A D-buck B. A Strange Girl C. Power of a Smile D. How to Be a Great Teacher C Standing on one leg is a simple way to assess someone's risk of suffering a stroke （中风）， suggests a new study． Researchers have found struggling to balance on one leg for 20 seconds or fewer is linked to an increased risk of small blood vessel （血管） damage in the brain and reduced thinking ability in otherwise healthy people with no symptoms． "Our study found the ability to balance on one leg is an important test for brain health． Individuals showing poor balance on one leg should receive increased attention， as this may indicate an increased risk of brain diseases and cognitive （认知的） decline，" said Dr． Tabara， associate professor at Kyoto University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan． ‎ ‎ The study， published in the journal Stroke， consisted of 841 women and 546 men， with an average age of 67． To measure one leg standing time， they stood with their eyes open and raised one leg． The maximum time for keeping the leg raised was 60 seconds． The participants performed the examination twice and the better of the two times was used in the study analysis． The researchers found that the inability to balance on one leg for longer than 20 seconds was associated with brain diseases without symptoms． Overall， those with brain diseases were older and had high blood pressure than those who did not have such diseases． Short one legged standing time was also linked with lower cognitive score． Although previous studies have examined the connection between physical abilities and the risk of stroke， this is among the first studies to closely examine how long a person can stand on one leg as an indication of their overall brain health． Dr.Tabara and his team also found a strong link between struggling to stand on one leg and increased age．‎ 8. Dr． Tabara suggested that one who couldn't stand on one leg for more than 20 seconds ______ ．‎ A. try to improve his physical abilities B. be given special attention to prevent accidents C. receive medical treatment for brain diseases D. be examined for other symptoms of brain diseases 9. Which of the following factors might decrease one leg standing time according to the text？ ______‎ a． Heart diseases． b． Cognitive decline． c． High blood pressure． d． The aging process． e． Brain diseases．‎ A. a， b， d B. a， c， d C. b， d， e D. b， c， e 10. What can we learn about the study from the fourth paragraph？ ______ ‎ A. It was led by Dr.Tabara．‎ ‎ B. It included more than 1，300 people．‎ ‎ C. It examined people of different age groups．‎ ‎ D. It required the participants to close their eyes first．‎ 11. Which of the following might be the best title for the text？ ______ ‎ A. Can't Stand on One Leg？ You May Be at Risk of Stroke B. Brain Diseases Without Symptoms Require Attention C. Overall Brain Health Deserves Close Attention D. Can't Keep Your Balance？ You May Have Brain Damage D We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence. ‎ ‎ What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.‎ ‎ Dismissing（摒弃） small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast. ＂Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,＂ he explains. ＂The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.＂‎ In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. ＂It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,＂ says Dunn. ＂But interactions with peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.＂‎ Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. ＂Small talk is the basis of good manners,＂he says.‎ ‎12. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?‎ A. Addiction to smartphones.‎ B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places.‎ C. Absence of communication between strangers.‎ D. Impatience with slow service.‎ ‎13. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?‎ A. Showing good manners. B. Relating to other people.‎ C. Focusing on a topic. D. Making business deals.‎ ‎14. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?‎ A. It improves family relationships. B. It raises people’s confidence.‎ C. It matters as much as a formal talk. D. It makes people feel good.‎ ‎15. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. Conversation Counts B. Ways of Making Small Talk C. Benefits of Small Talk D. Uncomfortable Silence 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。‎ What Is Fear?‎ Fear is a basic feeling arising when we feel threatened, and can have physical symptoms such as sweaty hands and an increased heart rate. 16 On the upside...‎ Fear means growth.‎ Fear tells us we are moving towards the edge of our comfort zone. We are doing something unfamiliar and learning new skills. This means we are growing, and growth means that once we go beyond the uncomfortable bit, we will be stronger, better and brighter than before! 17 ‎ Things are never as bad as they seem.‎ In most cases, the thing we fear is never as bad as we think it will be. When we are trying to make a decision to do something new, we lack the perspective to sec further than the familiar range. 18 No. If you look back on some of the scary things you’ve had to do in the past, you would now say, “What was so scary about this?!”‎ We are always stronger than we think!‎ Fear can teach us so much about our personal powers. There is no other feeling like the victory you feel that makes you realize you won. 19 Who cares? You made the leap! This will build your confidence! Think of your yoga practice. We CAN stand on our hands, even though we sometimes doubted it. And it will make us realize that we are so strong!‎ Fear is part of life, and doesn’t need to be eliminated.‎ ‎ 20 We can welcome it; we can cope with it and proceed in spite of it. The best decisions in life are rarely the easiest ones. Or rather, they may seem easy, but often come with fear. To quit your job is not easy, but if you know it’s the right thing to do, you know what you need to do. Following your heart will not come without fear, but it will come with big rewards.‎ A. Face the feeling of fear bravely.‎ B. And everything unfamiliar is scary?‎ C. Catch every opportunity to be successful.[]‎ D. We don’t need to remove fear from our lives.‎ E. So when you feel fear approaching, say thank you!‎ F. You succeeded, even though not every try is perfect.‎ G. But it can be a useful feeling when it comes to keeping us safe.‎ 第二部分 语言知识运用（共三节节，满分50分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ My 18-year-old daughter was admitted to hospital after a serious car accident.
