22、 Early when I was having my first go at being a father, our family lived in Philadelphia, and near our house there was a small playground where boys gathered for ball games. My son loved playing sports, but he was unprepared for what developed as his friends grew older.
After years together laughing and playing, several of the boys grew angry and unkind. Finally, they turned on my son, leaving him out of their games.
At first, I tried to encourage him so he would give the playground another go. But one Saturday morning I told him he could not come into the house. “You have to figure this out,” I said. “I’ll stay with you as long as you need, but I cannot let you just give up.” He cried. I kept saying: “You can do it.”
Did I do the right thing? Even now I’m not sure. He did go back to the playground. But while teaching him to stand up for himself, was I also passing along the prejudice that a boy should override his pain and never back down from a fight?
Research has found high school boys are more likely than girls to have been in a fight in the past year and boys are more likely to have been victims of violence.
When I was young, I went to an all-boys high school where the bigger and more violent guys ruled. One spring, after a school dance, a fight broke out. One of them, an older boy others said was “crazy,” was kicking another boy, who was seriously injured that night.
I have never forgotten that. As a psychologist, I have spoken with many young men who have had similarly sad experiences, and I have heard from many parents about the influence on their sons. When having stressful experiences like these, boys often pull away from their families.
The parents, understandably, feel anxious, but what they can do, must do, for their sons is never underestimate the power of listening to them, knowing them, and standing by them.
【1】How did the author’s son feel during his first years on the playground?
A.Proud. B.Happy. C.Unprepared. D.Unwelcome.
【2】What did the author do to encourage his son to return to the playground?
A.He comforted him. B.He went there with him.
C.He pushed him forward. D.He had a talk with the other boys.
【3】Why does the author mention the boy injured in a fight?
A.To show the harm of violence. B.To show violence is inborn in boys.
C.To show fighting is common in boys. D.To show uncontrolled violence at school.
【4】What does the author advise parents to do for their sons?
A.Leave them alone. B.Set a good example for them.
C.Teach them never to give up. D.Understand and support them.
23、Learning a language doesn’t happen in a day. 【1】 To get to the point when you can communicate with native speakers, you should pay attention to the following top tips given by successful language learners.
•Study a little bit every day but efficiently
When you organize to learn a lot of vocabulary or study several grammar patterns that are pretty challenging, your mind can’t take all of them simultaneously (同时地). Therefore, it is better to start with little steps and learn a little bit every day. It is often more efficient to learn 10 new words every day instead of learning 100 new words in a day. 【2】
•Don’t be afraid of making mistakes
No one likes making mistakes. It affects your confidence and you are embarrassed (尴尬的) especially if there are more people around you. But when you learn a foreign language, making mistakes is something quite normal and expected. If you make mistakes, it isn’t the end of the world. Try to learn from your mistakes. 【3】 Look at them as a learning tool that helps you never make those mistakes again.
• Track Your Progress
Checking weekly or monthly progress against your language goals is highly-recommended. You might track the sentence structures learned, the phrases memorized, or the lectures followed. Being aware of your progress can help you see how much your efforts pay off. 【4】 This strategy will keep you motivated (受到激励的) to continue learning.
【5】 You, just like them, one day can be proud of yourself and your achievements in language learning.
A．Make them useful experience.
B．Try hard, and you will finally succeed.
C．It takes a lot of time, organization, and effort.
D．You won’t remember all the 100 words, after all.
E．It is not only challenging, but also full of fun when you enjoy it.
F．You can also treat yourself with a small gift when you reach a new level.
G．The previous tips are from successful language learners who gladly shared them with you.
24、Icelanders have a beautiful tradition of giving books to each other on Christmas Eve and then spending the night reading. This custom is so deeply rooted in the culture that it is the reason for the Jolabokaflod, or “Christmas Book Flood”, when the majority of books in Iceland are sold between September and December in preparation for Christmas giving.
At this time of year, most families receive a yearly free book catalog of new publications called the Bokatidindi. Icelanders read the new catalog carefully and choose which books they want to buy, fueling what Kristjan B. Jonasson, president of the Iceland Publishers Association, describes as “the backbone of the publishing industry”.
The small Nordic island，with a population of only 329,000 people, is extraordinarily literary. They love to read and write. According to Rosie Goldsmith of the BBC, “The country has more writers, more books published and more books read, than most countries in the world.”
In North America, e-books have grown in popularity—it’s not the same in Iceland. One bookstore manager told NPR, “In Iceland, you give paper books instead of e-books as gifts.” The book industry is driven by the majority of people buying several books each year, rather than the North American pattern of a few people buying a lot of books.
When I asked an Icelandic friend what she thought of this tradition，she was surprised. “I hadn’t thought of this as a special Icelandic tradition. It’s true that a book is always considered as a nice gift. We’re very proud of our authors,” said she.
It sounds like a wonderful tradition, perfect for a winter evening. I’ll include it into my own family’s celebration of Christmas. I doubt my loyalty (忠诚) to paper books will ever fade; they are what I can’t resist collecting, in order to read and re-read them, to beautify and personalize my home, to pass them on to friends and family as needed. Combining my love for books with quiet and relaxing Christmas Eves sounds like a perfect match.
【1】Why do many Icelanders buy books between September and December?
A．To honor Kristjan B. Jonasson.
B．To use them as Christmas gifts.
C．To prepare for a reading festival.
D．To support the publishing industry.
【2】What can we know about the book industry in Iceland?
A．E-books have become more popular.
B．Paper books are placed more value on.
C．People’s love for books seems to fade.
D．A few people buy most of the new books.
【3】What does the author’s Icelandic friend think of the Icelandic tradition?
A．It comes as a surprise.
B．It proves less popular.
C．It is rather unique.
D．It is quite ordinary.
【4】What is the last paragraph intended to show?
A．The author’s family tradition on Christmas.
B．The reason for the author’s interest in reading.
C．The influence of the tradition on the author.
D．The wide spread of the wonderful tradition.

Having understood this, I took a deep breath and______back into my seat, pretending I was______on a roller coaster. I smiled for the rest of the flight.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was home with my two young kids, when my mind started to wander. I was reflecting on my past and couldn’t help but think: Whatever happened to Kathy?
Kathy lived in a tiny Canadian town and she became my pen pal when I was 13. As a girl growing up in New Zealand, I was curious to learn more about the world and Kathy’s letters certainly showed me how different life could be in another country.
When I was 18, the letters had petered out (逐渐减少) and we lost contact. I’d gone on to marry my husband, Paul, and start a family, but the more I thought about it, the more I missed news of Kathy’s adventures. I decided to write to Kathy and knowing that her parents lived in such a small town, I addressed the letter to them and hoped for the best.
Three weeks later, my heart leapt when I got an envelope postmarked from Canada. “I recognized your handwriting straightaway,” Kathy wrote to me. It turned out that, like me, she’d also married but due to health problems, she was unable to have children. Her job as a nurse kept her busy and she enjoyed helping others.
Realizing how quickly life could change. I promised to keep writing to her no matter what. Her letters soon became a highlight for me, giving me the same excitement I’d felt as a 13-year-old.
One day, when Paul was using the saw (锯子) to cut some wood, a splinter (尖细条) flew into the center of my right eye and I lost my sight permanently. Paul felt terrible and while it was a huge blow (打击) for me, I tried to carry on as best I could. Soon, I needed an artificial eye (义眼, 假眼) and received financial compensation (赔偿) as a result of the accident in our yard.
One day, Paul advised “Gayel, you should use the money to do something for yourself.” “Maybe I should use it to meet Kathy,” I joked, thinking it would take a very long time and couldn’t really happen. I expected Paul to be against it, but he was all for it. “That’s exactly what you should do,” he insisted, knowing how much this friendship meant to me. I struggled so much inside that I tossed and turned at night. But I finally made up my mind to visit Kathy, a friend I knew well but hadn’t seen in years.
注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
So I left Paul and the kids to travel 30 hours to reach Kathy.
