For the most part Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardest-working people I have ever met.In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely.The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isn’t large and I live better. Non-imported foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children can’t afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years age. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles have not reached many areas of China, but we also have the same problems.When I am asked which country I consider better. China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better than each other, we are only different.”26. What does the author think of Chinese people?A.

The author thinks __________.A. living in the US is better than in ChinaB. people in different countries enjoy their own livesC. people in China live a happier life than those in the USD. life in the US is the same as that in China(B)Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of concentration (缺乏注意力) is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results. If so, use these tips to help you.★Study TechniquesYou should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (分心) you. Your eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your book at an angle of 30 degrees (30度).Don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes.★Test-taking SkillsAll your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts a few months.Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure (压力). Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided (专一的) attention.31. How many study skills does the writer introduce?A. ThreeB. FourC. FiveD. Six32.

Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few duties to make life hard. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It’s impossible for him to be given so much again in his life without having to do anything in return. Also, life is always giving new things to the child. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside makes him wild. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is always being told not to do this, not to do that, or being punished (惩罚) for what he has done wrong. So his life is not quite happy.When the young man starts to earn his own living. He can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work hard if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society (社会) as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.41. Who can be the happiest person?A.

Childhood is full of happiness without any pain.D. Childhood means children can do anything.43. From how many points does the writer write Paragraph 2?A. OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. Four44. What does a person have to do to have a good life after growing up?A. Live by himself.B. Live with parents.C. Get support from parents.D. Work hard himself.45. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains.B. Young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard.C.

He always told me “You should have goals(目标) like climbing the mountain.”Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience(耐力).Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, In fact, Ihated it at that moment, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there at the top can you see all of the nice things, which is just like your life.”At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence.

Chatting online is now a national pastime(消遣）in China, especially among the post-90s and post-00s. To some people, however, online chats can seem like a kind of polite conversation. But there are some hidden rules and standards, like the following.Get to the PointWhen sending a friend request(好友请求), include your real name and identifying(可识别的) information. Remember, everybody’s time is valuable. If there’s something you want, say it straight. Never send an “Are you there?” without any follow up messages. The quicker that you get to the point, them more likely the other person is to reply.Send the Right ThingsPlease send texts, not voice messages. It might be easier for you to speak than type, but what about the person on the other end? They may be unable to listen to a 59-second message right now. Also, never send personal information by voice message it is hard to write down. Emojis, GIFs and memes can save the day when you find yourself in an embarrassing(尴尬的）conversation, or words fail you.Try to UnderstandYou can always tell a person’s feeling by their text messages. If the person you’re talking to says “Good night” or “I’m going to take a shower.” that’s probably not what they’re actually going to do, it is just an excuse to stop talking to you. If someone waits for longer than three seconds before saying “Yes”, they probably really mean “No”. If you receive these emojis from friends who are older, read them literally(照字面地）(as a smile, a wave or a laugh). For the post-90s and post-00s generation, however, they could be speechlessness.31.According to the passage, what can you do if there’s something you want when you’re chatting online?A.

How to get to the point when you’re chatting online.B. Different good ways of sending the right thing.C. Hidden rules and standards in chatting online.D. How to understand others through the messages.35. What is the writer’s opin ion about chatting online?A.Y our text messages on the phone will show what you’re feeling.B. Using too many emojis while chatting will annoy others.C. V oice messages make it easier for others to understand you.D. The ways you use to chat are the same as your parents.第二节阅读填空 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分)Time to DanceAre you the kind of person who likes to move with music?
