This time,we stayed together in case anything close unusual happened.Thirty years later,a woman approached me in a public place.“Excuse me,did you ever enter a residence,long ago,thinking it was the McNay Museum?”“Yes.But how do you know?We never told anyone.”“That was my home.I was a teenager sitting in the hall.Before you came over,I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in.I never felt lucky before.You thought it was a museum.My feelings about my home changed after that.I’ve always wanted to thank you.”24.What do we know about Marian McNay?A.She was a painter.B.She was a community leader.C.She was a museum director.D.She was a journalist.25.Why did the author refuse the help from the man in the house?A.She disliked people who were nosy.B.She felt nervous when talking to strangers.C.She knew more about art than the manD.She mistook him for a tour guide.26.Why did the author describe the real McNay museum in Just a few words?A.The real museum lacked enough artwork to interest her.B.She was too upset to spend much time at the real museum.C.The McNay was disappointing compared with the houseD.The event happening in the house was more significant27.What could we learn from the last paragraph?A.People should have good taste to enjoy life.B.People should spend more time with theirfamilyC.People tend to be blind to the beauty around them.D.People tend to educate teenagers at amuseum.CIt’s common knowledge that some countries have higher life expectancies than others,but the city you live in can also affect your health.Some cities are hard on their residents.In places with poor city planning,for example Lagos,which was called out recently by the Economist Intelligence Unit,public spaces are few,making outdoor activities ck of infrastructure（基础建设）blocks the streets with cars and the air with pollutants,and residents work long hours for little money.These are just some of the factors added up by Spotahome,a rental agency.They've analyzed data from a range of sources,including the World Health Organization,TripAdvisor and the CIA World Factbook to score each city on health,gym availability and quality,life expectancy,obesity,green space and other elements to make a list to work out which are the world's healthiest cities.The list is certainly Euro-centric and sunshine is seen as a positive factor.It does go some way towards suggesting which cities are getting it right in providing a good life for their residents.It may not be surprising to learn that most of the healthiest cities are in northern Europe,known for its people-first approach to city planning.The cities of Australia and Canada also do well.However,the first American city is only in34th place.The UK doesn't fare too well either-its only city in the top50list is London,in40th.Whether you're planning a wholesome holiday or simply wondering what your city can do better in its quest for happy citizens,the list of the50healthiest cities will give you pause for thought about the future of city planning.Here are the slender,healthy-eating,clean-aired cities that are getting it right.28.What plays the key role in building a healthy city according to the text?A.Local culture.B.City planning.C.Economic condition.D.Geographicalposition.29.What does paragraph3mainly talk about?A.How the list of healthiest cities came into being.B.What Spotahome discovered in therecent study.C.The reasons why Spotahome carried out the study.D.The places where the data of the studycame from.30.What can we learn from the text?A.Cities in America lack enough sunshine.B.The UK ranked higher than America inthe list.C.Australia and Canada have the best city planning.D.Some people in Lagos may live a poorlife.31.What may be the best title for the text?A.The best places to have a rich lifeB.The happiest lifestyle in the worldC.The city factors affecting your healthD.The nice countries to keep healthyDA large body of research has been developed in recent years to explain many aspects of willpower. Most of the researchers exploring self-control do so with an obvious goal in mind:How can willpower be strengthened?If willpower is truly a limited resource,as the research suggests,what can be done to make it stay strong?Avoiding temptation（诱惑）is an effective method for maintaining self-control which is called the”out of sight,out of mind”principle.One recent study,for instance,found office workers less attracted to candy in the desk drawer than that on top of their desks,in plain sight.The research suggesting that we possess a limited reservoir of self-control raises a troubling question. When we face too many temptations,are we to fail?Not necessarily.Researchers don’t believe that one’s willpower is ever completely exhausted.Rather,people appear to hold some willpower in reserve,saved for future demands.The right motivation allows us to tap into those reserves allowing us to carry on even when our self-control strength has been run down.High motivation might help overcome weakened willpower-at least to a point.Willpower may also be made less vulnerable（脆弱）to being exhausted in the first place.Researchers who study self-control often describe it as being like a muscle that gets tired with heavy use.But there is another aspect to the muscle comparison,they say.While muscles become exhausted by exercise in the short term,they are strengthened by regular exercise in the long term.Similarly,regular practices of self-control may improve willpower strength.The evidence from willpower-exhaustion studies also suggests that making a list of resolutions on New Year's Eve is the worst possible approach.Being exhausted in one area can reduce willpower in other areas,so it makes more sense to focus on a single goal at a time.In other words,don't try to quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and start a new exercise plan at the same time.Taking goals one by one is a better approach.Once a good habit is in place,Baumeister says,you'll no longer need to draw on your willpower to maintain the behavior.Eventually healthy habits will become routine,and won't require making decisions at all.32.From the studies in the passage we learn thatA.people have unlimited self-controlB.high motivation ensures one's successC.willpower is hardly completely exhaustedD.too many temptations often lead tofailure33.The underlined phrase"tap into"in Paragraph3most probably means_________.A.make use ofB.run out ofC.buildD.increase34.The author compares self-control to musclesA.to prove the long-term effect of willpowerB.to show the significance of regularexerciseC.to argue that self-control can he easily used upD.to explain the benefits of practicingself-control35.To develop a good habit,which of the following does the author prefer?A.“I will give up dessert and do exercise.”B.“I will set three goals this newsemester.”C.“I will read an English novel every month.”D.“I will keep myself from anytemptation.”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。
辽宁省抚顺市第十二中学2022-2023学年高二上学期期末测试英语试卷(含答案)
辽宁省抚顺市第十二中学2022-2023学年高二上学期期末测试英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、阅读理解Football: Designing the Beautiful GameWhether you are a crazy fan or sideline supporter, visitors to this exhibition will enjoy discovering the remarkable design stories behind the world’s beautiful game.What to expectThe exhibition explores the story behind football, showing how design has been used to push the game to new limits. Take a journey through over 500 objects, films and interviews in sporting performance, equipment development and stadium design, and involve yourself in the stories of clubs and game legends(传奇人物)including Messi, Pelé, George Best and Diego Maradona.Held by the Design Museum and the National Football Museum in Manchester, the show reveals the master planning of the world’s most significant football stadiums, the design innovation used in today’s equipment, how th e graphic design of team badges(徽章) and posters shapes a club’s identity and how grassroots’ efforts are pushing the sport’s commercialization.Ticket information※Online booking is advised but tickets will also be available in the booking office.

Learn about famous football players.2、How much should a couple with their 11-year-old son pay at least for admission?A. £ 33.B. £ 36.C. £ 44.D. £ 48.3、What will visitors enjoy with the ticket?A. A special discount on goods at a cafe.B. A photo of a significant football stadium.C. A free visit to the National Football Museum.D. An invitation to a club’s sporting performance.I’ve been in an 18-year love-hate relationship with a black walnut tree.It’s a unique tree. In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls(头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties that I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed to flourish.What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs b efore dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.4、Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?A. To protect the injured skull.B. To prevent herself from sunburn.C. To avoid being hit by the nuts.D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.5、What is the tree’s survival strategy?A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.6、Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.7、The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.A. it’s better to give than to takeB. trees and plants have their own ways to flourishC. even a good relationship is not always trouble-freeD. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to beMath anxiety is far from uncommon, but too often, those who fear the subject simply avoid it. Research from The University of Chicago offers evidence for the link between math anxiety and avoidance.Studying nearly 500 adults through a computer program called the Choose—And—Solve Task (CAST) the researchers gave participants a choice between math and word problems labeled “easy” and “hard”. The easy problems were always worth two cents, while the hard problems were worth up to six cents. They also informed participants the computer task would modify the questions in the process of testing based on their abilities, enabling them to handle about 70% of the hard problems.Although participants attempted hard word problems when promised higher monetary prizes, they rarely chose to do the same for math problems. “We found we couldn’t even pay math-anxious individuals to do difficult math problems,” researcher Rozek says.The findings also contradict a widely held belief that feeling anxious about math and avoiding math-related problems is rooted in being bad at math. “If you take two students good at math, the math-anxious one will do worse at math than the one that isn’t anxious.”Such a mentality does more than stopping people from taking calculus courses orpursuing a career in STEM. It can affect everyday interactions with math-like leaving a tip in a restaurant. But all is not lost. Reframing their anxiety from negative to positive could help math-anxious people re-engage. Giving those anxious about siting exams guidance may lead them to perform better. “Telling them if you’re anxious, this is your body getting you ready to perform and focus,” Rozek says. Another path may be to create early positive experi ences around math. For example, telling stories featuring math and tackling problems around the story may be helpful.8、What does the underlined word “modify” mean in paragraph 2?A. Adjust.B. Design.C. Solve.D. Add.9、What does the study find?A. Math anxiety interacts with math avoidance.B. Word problems are often regarded as easier.C. Fear of math can outweigh higher rewards.D. People underrate their mathematical ability.10、What is a common misunderstanding about math anxiety?A. It is the cause of math avoidance.B. It causes people to be bored of math.C. It is a complex phenomenon in life.D. It results from poor math performance.11、What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. Consequences of math avoidance.B. Ways to break the anxiety-avoidance link.C. Explanations for math anxiety.D. Mental barriers to mathematical achievements.Mosquito bites are unavoidable in summer—or is that so? Scientists recently found that mosquitoes are more attracted to some colors than others, which could possibly prove useful to those trying to avoid the annoying bites.The study found that after a common type of mosquitoes smelled CO2 the gas humans breathe out—they decided to land on some colored dots (色点) but ignored others.“Imagine you’re on a sidewalk and you smell toasty,” the lead researcher said in a press release announcing the study’s findings. “That’s probably a sign that there’s a bakery nearby and you might start looking around for it. Here, we started to learn what visual elements that mosquitoes are looking for after smelling their own version of a bakery.”The research team put different colored dots at the bottom of a box and sprayed (喷洒) them with CO2. They found that mosquitoes were drawn most to red, orange and black. They also found that mosquitoes ignored green, blue and white. When a researcher reached his hand into the box wearing a green glove, mosquitoes ignored it, even when it was sprayed with CO2.Unfortunately, avoiding mosquitoes isn’t as easy as choosing the right colo r of clothes. Human skin delivers a vivid red-orange “signal” to mosquitoes, the researchers said, making it hard to hide completely“We previously discovered there are three major hints that attract mosquitoes: your breath, your sweat and the temperature of your skin,” the lead researcher said. “Now we have found a fourth hint: the color red, which can not only be found on your clothes, but is also found in everyone’s skin. The shade of your skin doesn’t matter. We are all giving off a strong red feature.”While the research found that the mosquitoes appeared to prefer certain colors, it did not measure whether wearing colors like green or blue would help keep away from the mosquitoes. The researchers hope that their findings can help find other methods to drive back the biting insects.12、Why did the researchers spray the dots with CO2?A. It drives mosquitoes away.B. It is attractive to mosquitoes.C. It prevents mosquitoes finding targets.D. It’s a practical material to catch mosquitoes.13、Which of the following colors causes the least attention from mosquitoes?A. Red.B. BlackC. Orange.D. Blue.14、What does paragraph 6 focus on?A. The features of human skin.B. Factors that attract mosquitoes.C. What elements mosquitoes ignore.D. How to choose the color of clothes.15、What may be the hopeful result of the study?A. Mosquitoes will disappear someday.B. Most people will wear colorful clothes.C. The survival rate of mosquitoes will be affected.D. More ways will be found to keep mosquitoes off.二、七选五16、When did you last write a letter by hand? In a digital world, where sending a text or email is more convenient than using snail mail, is traditional pen and paper dying out? Some people claim that writing has many benefits. So maybe it’s not time to put away your pen yet.These days, when people request things in writing, a typed, electronic document will be accepted. ①________. But crafting a handwritten document is unique: It requires planning and thought, and it helps you to remember spelling and punctuation.②________. This is particularly relevant for students.

Scribbling notes, shopping lists or messages on the back of an envelope can still be useful, quick and portable. ④________. Pen pal writer Katherine Moller told the BBC: “...it is so personal and so precious to know someone chose to turn off the virtual world to spend some time with you.”⑤________ especially if your smartphone, tablet or laptop runs out of power!A. Some experts believe your brain benefits from using pen and paperB. Doing this on a computer means it could be edited, saved and sentC. However, a hand-written document can reflect your devotion and sincerityD. So, while digital skills remain important, don’t quit your pens and pencils yetE. Handwriting has became a fashion for a small group of people in recent yearsF. Others agree that handwriting may improve fine motor skills in your hands and fingersG.

21．（6分） A study showed that the experiences children have in their first few years are important. These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs.Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion(万亿) connections in the brain of a three-year-old child.Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern "A-B-B". Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the "A-B-B" pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. "Position is key to language," she says. "If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: 'John caught the bear.' is very different from 'The bear caught John.'”Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, or smartphones－no matter how educational－doesn’t appear to be enough for children’s brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group who’d watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies—regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio—learned nothing.1、What makes connections in a baby’s brain?A．Having a higher IQ. B．Experiencing new informationC．The baby’ early age D．The connection with other babies2、What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment?A．Babies identify different sound patterns.B．Word order is relevant to meaning.C．Babies can well understand different words.D．A certain brain region processes language.3、What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?A．Grammar is important in learning languages.B．Different orders have different meanings.C．Different languages have different grammar.D．Words have different sounds.4、What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?A．Babies shouldn’t watch a lot of television.B．Listening to different languages develops babies’ brainC．Foreign languages help babies’ brain developD．Social communication improves babies’ brain development.22．（8分）If you’ve ever noticed uneasiness in your puppy around an unwelco me houseguest，you might be onto something．A new study found that dogs can really sense bad behavior in humans，and are less likely to accept treats from those people．For the study，which was published in the January edition of Neuroscience & biobehavioral Reviews，researchers set up a scene in which a dog watched his owner try to open a container while two actors were on set．In a series of three tries one of the actors would help the owner open the container，respond neutrally(中立地)，or refuse to help open the container．The other actor responded passively in all three tries．At each end of the try，both actors would offer the dog a treat at the same time．In the tries where the working actor had responded either helpfully or neutrally，the dog was equally likely to accept a treat from either of the two actors．In the third try where he had responded rudely，the dog was more likely to choose the passive actor．James Anderson，a psychologist who worked on the study at Kyoto University，told the New Scientist that the dogs most likely have a similar ability to notice bad behavior in humans as human babies do．“If somebody is behaving badly，they probably end up with some sort of emotional reaction to it,”he says．Babies have been shown to begin to make these types of connections around age one．So while you can’t ask your dog’s opinion every time you’re facing a difficult situation，you can consider his judgment of your new friends when thinking about whether they are kind or not．Of course，we’11 suggest doing so according to the situation and your own consideration，but it wouldn’t hurt to take note!1、What does the new study mainly show?A．Dogs can read humans’thoughts．B．Dogs are unwilling to accept treats from peopleC．Dogs can sense unfriendliness of humans．D．Dogs feel uneasy around strange people．2、In the third try，why was the dog more likely to choose the passive actor?A．The dog wanted to please him．B．His treats appeared more attractive．C．His action stayed the same during three tries．D．The dog considered the other actor rude．3、What does the underlined word”they”in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Humans．B．Dogs．C．Babies．D．Psychologies．23．（8分）For the longest time,Amber Austwick was unable to speak.In fact,it took a donkey to inspire her first words. Amber,a 6-year-old girl in Birmingham,England,was born prematurely,along with her twin sister,Hope,in June 2010.Both babies suffered severe bleeding in their lungs,but Hope got stronger while Amber needed a life-saving tracheotomy（气管切开术）that restricted air to vocal cords（声带）.As a result,she was able to breathe,but unable to speak.But that changed three years ago,when Amber's mom,Tracy Austwick,took her to an animal shelter.It was there that Amber met Shocks,a donkey that had been rescued from abuse.“It was quite scary really,”Tracy Austwick said.“Shocks was in the stadium and the riding instructor took little Amber to him and I found it scary for me because Shocks was so much bigger than her.”“But Amber wasn't scared and Shocks was really excited to meet her and they've kept tha t bond ever since.”The bond is so strong that when Amber was ready to say her first words,she said them to Shocks:“I love you.”Amber's mother was shocked that her daughter spoke to Shocks.“It was such an emotional moment.I couldn't believe my daughter had finally found her voice,”she said.“Once she met Shocks he brought her out of her shell, she's a lot more confident with him and with friends at school who she loves to talk to about him and the donkey shelter.”Although Shocks still lives at the shelter,h e's part of the Austwick family.“Amber will always visit Shocks and she still sees him whenever she can,”Tracy said.1、What do the twin sisters have in common?A．They were born deaf and dumb.B．They had vocal cord injured.C．They suffered physical abuse.D．They had severe lung problems.2、The bond with Shocks made Amber______.A．like going to the donkey shelter with her good friendsB．fear animals no longer and dare to get close to themC．become more confident and willing to talk to peopleD．fight against her lung disease bravely3、Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A．Shocks Helps Amber to Recover from Her Lung BleedingB．A New Medical Cure Is Applied to Rescue the PatientsC．Amber Has Developed a Strong Bond with Her FriendsD．Girl Who Couldn't Speak Tells A Donkey “I Love You”24．（8分）The poisonous domoic (藻) acid affected Alfred Hitchcock' s "The Birds" after hundreds of them absorbed the poison in the summer of 1961 and lost their minds.The sick birds likely consumed poisonous acid via small fish. It also tends to collect in shellfish. And, according to a study published Tuesday, it may become more common as oceans warm, threatening birds and humans alike.Researchers have studied the rate of poisonous acid over the past 20 years in the Pacific Northwest, and found it strongly related to water temperatures that are warmer than normal.For now, warmer waters typically comes from events like EL Nino and a decades -long climate cycle called "Pacific decadal oscillation," the study found. It isn't yet clear how climate change, which also warms the oceans, might affect the rate of the poison."When water's unusually warm off our coast, it's because the circulation and patterns in the atmosphere has changed, bringing warm water from elsewhere - and this is happening at the same time that we also see high poisonous acid in shellfish, " Morgaine McKibben, the study ' s lead author said.The poison is produced during warm domoic blooms, and gets passed up the food chain by animals that eat it. Sea lions, dolphins and humans are at risk. While some animals can eventually clean themselves of the poison, the threat can last a long time after the warm water decreases.Animals poisoned by poisonous acid tend to become weak, and experience death. Symptoms in humans include headache, confusion, loss of short - term memory, weakness and unconsciousness.It isn't just a health risk. An Oregon State University statement notes that officials have to shut down shellfish harvests when poisonous acid levels are high, causing economic harm.Since health officials first regarded poison acid as a health threat in 1987, Pacific Northwest shellfish harvests have been stopped in 2005, 2017, and 2018. The West Coast crab（蟹）industry took an estimated$100 million hit in 2017 alone.1、Why did the birds lose their mind in the summer of 1961?A．They maybe had a bad memory.

D．Making humans suffer heart attack.4、What's the best title of this passage?A．High Poisonous Acid Appears in the AnimalsB．The West Coast Crab Industry Suffer Great LossC．Climate Change Warms the Oceans in the WorldD．Warmer Oceans Increase Likelihood of Poisonous Shellfish25．（10分）Most of us don’t reach for that gnarled (多节的) carrots when selecting our produce at the local supermarket. That’s exactly why Americans waste up to 40% of eatable food every year. This unbelievable number has sparked the “ugly food” movement, and inspired many companies to sell misshapen fruit and vegetables to consumers, rather than throw them in the trash.One San Francisco organization is taking a unique approach to this idea. The Salvage Supperclub hosts fancy dinners inside dumper truck (卸车) where they serve dishes entirely prepared with food that would have otherwise gone to waste.Josh Treuhaft, founder of these ugly food dinners, originally came up with the idea 10 bring awareness to America’s food waste problem. “There is undeveloped potential in their food that for some reason, not to their own fault, is going to waste,” he told Seeker’s Laura Ling.Treuhaft isn’t alone in his effort to reduce America’s food waste. A Change, org last year willed for Whole Foods to become part of the ugly food movement. They sold misshapen fruit and vegetables in Northern California stores.Selling imperfect produce is still relatively rare right now, which can be partially due to a supply issue rather than a lack of willing participants. Raley’s, a Sacramento-based grocery chain, started an ugly food pilot program called “Real Good”, but discontinued it after 90 days saying they had “some challenges sourcing the product”. A grower might have large amounts of ugly produce one year due to terrible weather, but much less the next year if the weather has been more ideal. Harvests constantly vary and retailers are more likely to buy ugly produce in large number rather than just a few pounds at a time.This is why organizations like Imperfect Produce and Salvage Supperclub are playing an important role in the prevention of food waste. Salvage Supperclub takes it a step further by not only buying the ugly produce, but turning it into a good dining experience as well.1、What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A．People usually prefer Rood-looking produce.B．Gnarled carrots mostly appear in the supermarket.C．Many companies find new business opportunities.D．Americans eat less fruit and vegetables than expected.2、Why does the Salvage Supperclub have dinners inside the dumper truck?A．To prove his fancy idea.B．To remind people not to waste.C．To show waste can be eaten.D．To advise people lo dine in dumper truck.3、What’s Josh Treuhaft’s advice to reduce America’s food waste?A．People should reduce the ugly food.B．People should make full use of ugly food.C．People should be more aware of food shortage.D．People should develop their potential in producing food.4、Why did Raley’s stop its “Real Good” after 90 days?A．Retailers’ pursuing larger profit.B．Bad harvests due to bad weather.C．Lack of steady sources of produce.D．People’s unwillingness to buy imperfect produ ce.第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（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．26．（30分）“I love myself.” That sounds a bit _____ and I doubt if anyone would ever say it out loud, but finding the confidence to succeed is very _____ if you don’t love yourself.
