第二部分　閱讀（共兩節，滿分50分）
第一節（共15小題；每小題2.5分，滿分37.5分）
　　閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。
A
Developing Children’s Persistence
　　One of the most important lessons a child can learn is not to give up when faced with a challenging situation， but instead to continue and overcome it.
　　Invention education
　　As the importance of STEM （science， technology， engineering and mathematics） subjects continues to grow due to the world’s increasing complexity （復雜性）， invention education has become a popular way for children to explore these fields in pleasant ways.
　　At Camp Invention， there are no “right” or “wrong” ways to complete each day’s set of challenges and activities.Those who take part in it are able to seek solutions that naturally interest them.For example， campers learn how to change their cars to travel across the land， and create basic theory that could help them move through the air and even underwater by using the same method shared by some of the world’s most well-known inventors！
　　The Innovation Mindset
　　Working with our national innovators whose discoveries continue to improve the lives of people everywhere， we have recognized nine basic skills that can benefit children throughout their lives.We call this the Innovation Mindset， and it influences the development of all our education programmes.
　　Persistence is a very important part of the Innovation Mindset because it teaches children to recover from setbacks and overcome difficulties to reach their goals.Because our programmes develop determination through a “create， test and retest” way of learning， students build the strength and confidence to take on any challenges that stand in their way.
　　Explore more trends in STEM
　　To learn more about the latest trends in STEM education， click here or visit our blog.
21.How does Camp Invention develop persistence？
A.By inviting famous inventors.
B.By providing interesting solutions.
C.By encouraging campers to take STEM subjects.
D.By allowing campers to solve problems in creative ways.
22.What can children learn in the Innovation Mindset？
A.To recognize basic life skills.
B.To face challenges bravely.
C.To build up their body strength.
D.To develop education programmes.
23.Where is the text probably taken from？
A.A website.　　　　　 B.A camp poster.
C.A science report. D.A course introduction.
B
　　One summer during high school， my mom volunteered me to help Grandpa research our family tree.It’s terrible to imagine hours spent dusting boxes and listening to boring stories about people I didn’t know.“You’ll be surprised，” my mom promised.“Family history can be very interesting.”
　　In truth， Grandpa didn’t want to limit my work to just research， hoping to also keep our family memories.He’d discovered a computer program that helped digitally scan old pictures and letters to maintain their contents before they crumble from age.Grandpa wanted me to help him connect the scanner and set up the computer program.He could type documents and send emails， but had never used a scanner.
　　Soon after， I became interested my relatives’ lives.I asked Grandpa to tell the story behind every picture and letter we scanned.The stories， which turned out not to be boring at all， helped me not only understand but also relate to my relatives.I became so eager for more information that Grandpa needed additional props （道具） to keep me satisfied.He showed me a chest filled with random stuff， all covered in dust.
　　Looking through their belongings， I felt I was opening a window to the world of my relatives， a world long since gone.Grandpa showed me letters he had sent to Grandma from the front line of World War Ⅱ and I could almost smell the gunpowder.I turned the pages of my great-grandmother’s recipe book and could picture her cooking in her kitchen.All of the people who had been only names to me now had faces to match.
　　Later， Grandpa admitted，“I probably could have done this project myself.I just wanted someone to share it with.” I can’t thank him enough for sharing the experience and making me appreciate the family members who have made me who I am.
24.Which can best describe the author’s first impression of the research？
A.Delightful. B.Boring.
C.Surprising. D.Interesting.
25.What does the underlined word “crumble” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？
A.Come to life. B.Tear apart.
C.Fall to pieces. D.Break through.
26.Why did Grandpa give the author a chest？
A.To show him old letters.
B.To keep him away from boredom.
C.To give him something to sort out.
D.To satisfy his eagerness to know more.
27.What can we learn about Grandpa from the passage？
A.He possibly served as a soldier in the past.
B.He knew nothing about the computer.
C.He buried the letters under gunpowder.
D.He loved sharing what he had with others.
C
　　A recent study on parents who beat their children indicated that physical punishment still happens far more frequently than previously （先前地） thought but that physical punishment was ineffective.73 per cent of the children who were hit waited less than 10 minutes before acting out again.
　　Many parents deal with their children’s mistakes by taking away toys and separating them from their playmates.But for strong-willed kids like I was， none of these methods were effective.
　　Like many kids， I wasn’t bad； I was bored.Fortunately， my father realized this fairly early and developed a new form of “discipline （原則）” that produced immediate results and long-term positive effects.
　　Looking back as an adult， my father’s method of making me read the encyclopedia （百科全書） whenever I did something wrong was the best thing he could have done.
　　He would tell me a topic and say， “Learn about the aardvark （土豚） and I’m going to test you shortly after.” It was punishment in the sense that I was forced to stop whatever I was doing， but it also had a purpose in that it kept my mind occupied and presented the type of mental challenge I clearly lacked.
　　Although unwillingly， I went to learn absolutely everything there to know about aardvarks because I was going to figure out every question he could throw at me.If it weren’t for my driving need to prove him wrong， it may not have worked as well as it did.
　　So that’s just it： It was effective.It helped me change my behavior in that moment and it conditioned me to seek out books when I was bored.Obviously， that happened frequently and apparently and it worked.I grew up to become a successful lawyer and a famous writer as well.To this day， Dad’s the only one who can beat me.
28.What is the probable main idea of Paragraph 1？
A.It reports the result of a recent study about the encyclopedia.
B.Physical punishment is useless to deal with children.
C.Physical punishment only happened previously.
D.73 per cent of the children love physical punishment.
29.Why do many kids frequently do what they’re not allowed to do according to the author？
A.Because they produce immediate results and long-term positive effects.
B.Because they prefer to break the “discipline” set by their parents.
C.Because they are always regarded as bad kids both at home.
D.Because they often find it’s boring in their everyday life.
30.What was the author’s father’s method of punishing him for his mistakes？
A.His father angrily took away his favorite toys.
B.His father separated him from his playmates.
C.His father forced him to do some reading and tested him later.
D.His father ordered him to learn about the aardvark and quizzed him shortly after.
31.What can be inferred from this passage？
A.Children who are mentally challenged are more likely to be successful.
B.Parents ought to develop a new form of physical punishment to educate their kids.
C.It’s absolutely necessary to punish strong-willed kids physically.
D.The stricter parents are， the fewer mistakes children will make.
D
　　The week my eldest son finished pre-school education， I decided to clear out the playroom filled with his toys.Toys had kept him company whenever his mother and I were busy with other duties， and over the years we had collected a really large number of them.Here are some of what I found： 13 puzzles， 4 games for practising maths， and a speaker box that could play Mozart to develop musical ability.
　　Our masses of playthings may have been extreme， but it was by no means unusual.American families spend， on average， around 600 dollars every year on toys； a 10-year-old child in the UK may have owned 238 toys， totaling about 6，500 pounds.
　　During the past two centuries， educators， toy companies and parents like us have acted as if the purpose of play is to prepare children for adulthood.The more book learning we could pack up as play， and then give to our children， the better.Then， in the second half of the 20th century， toys were increasingly bought for the purpose of building better brains in order to build more competitive and successful grown-ups.By 2020， the different kinds of educational toys had made nearly $65 billion worldwide.Toys that teach — from the Speak & Spell to the See & Say — are now a part of many young lives.
　　“This generation of parents is asking toys to provide an end product， and that end product is success，” Richard Gottlieb， an influential toy industry advisor， commented.“They want toys to get their children into Harvard.”
　　“The model has been， ‘If I get toys that do schoolish things， then that’s good，’” Alison Gopnik， a leading developmental psychologist， said.“But that really goes against what the developmental science is telling us.For a long time， we’ve been getting our children， and their toys， all wrong.”
32.Why does the author mention toys in his house？
A.To present the varieties of toys. B.To advise others to buy fewer toys.
C.To show parents’ craziness for toys. D.To complain of too many toys in his house.
33.How does the author show his point in Paragraph 2？
A.By listing numbers. B.By quoting opinions.
C.By providing examples. D.By drawing comparisons.
34.What is parents’ misunderstanding about toys？
A.They can keep children happy. B.They can make children positive.
C.They can reduce children’s stress. D.They can promote children’s success.
35.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？
A.Do We Need to Buy Toys？ B.Are Toys a Part of Our Lives？
C.Can Toys Bring Us Happiness？ D.Have We Got Toys All Wrong？

My eldest daughter’s 　43　 the other day brought this up.“Let me ask you something， Dad，” she began to control 　44　 patiently that every experienced parent knows.
“I sailed around the Mediterranean when I was seventeen，” she said.“I hiked through the Pyrenees.I’ve done rock climbing and deep-sea diving and slept in rainforests.Right？”
“Right，” I said “So what？”
“So this，” she went on.“When I go to the corner drugstore to pick up some shampoo， why do you always tell me to be 　45　 when I cross the street？”
There is no satisfactory 　46　 a parent can give to this.
All I could say in reply was that when I was 50， my mother would 　47　 me not to drive too fast.If I were 80 and she were still alive， I would be getting the 　48　 warning.No matter what the age， a child is a child.
There is something else， too， that children find it hard to understand.When they are far away， there is nothing we can do about their 　49　.Parents try not to 　50　 about it.
But when the children are close， the old protective urge quickly 　51　， and it doesn’t 　52　 how far they have been or what experiences they have got through.
Most 　53　 happen round the corner， not in the rainforest.The most instinctive （本能的） act of almost every creature is to 　54　 its young， and this reaction stays for a lifetime.

A Bowl of Noodles
　　Jenny was the only child in her home.She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily.She couldn’t help crying sadly when she thought of the scolding from her mother.Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours， she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat， but it was not even possible for her， since she had nothing with her.She stood beside a stand for a while， watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business.However， with no money in hand， she sighed and had to leave.
　　The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked， “Hey， girl， you want to have the noodles？”
　　“Oh， yes ...but I don’t have money on me ...” she replied.
　　“That’s nothing.I’ll treat you today，” said the man. “Come in.”
　　The seller brought her a bowl of noodles， whose smell was so attractive.Jenny thanked the man and started to gobble （狼吞虎咽） up the delicious food ... then cried silently.
　　“What is it？” asked the man kindly.
　　“Nothing， actually I was moved by your kindness！” said Jenny as she wiped her tears.“Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles， while my mother drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me.She is so mean and cruel！”
　　Hearing the words， the seller smiled， “Girl， do you really think so？ I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number the times that she has cooked for you？ Have you expressed your thanks to her？”
　　Jenny sat there， speechless and numb with shock； she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands.“Why did I not think of that？ A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful， but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
　　On the way home， Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

聽力原文：
（Text 1）
M：Sorry， I have forgotten John’s address.
W：You forgot again！ It’s 1343 King Street.
（Text 2）
M：The car is very nice.Did you buy it last month？
W：No， I rented it for a holiday last week. And my own car I bought three years ago is still good.
（Text 3）
M：Your skirt is quite beautiful in color， isn’t it？
W：Yes， I bought it at a sale for half price. It cost me 12.
（Text 4）
M：I hope I can see you at my birthday party.
W：Oh， dear， I’ve almost forgotten. When is it？
M：Well， the day after April Fools’ Day. Easy to remember， isn’t it？
W：Yes， of course.
（Text 5）
M：I hear you are going to drive to New York this weekend.
W：Oh， I’ve changed my mind.
M：What？
W：I think flying will be more comfortable.
（Text 6）
W：Have a look at these brochures. Have you ever thought of visiting South America？
M：Well， I’ve traveled to Brazil on business twice and I’d really like to go there a third time.
W：Great！ There will be a flight on Oct.25th and ...
M：Flight？ Forget that！ I am afraid of flying.
W：Oh， how about traveling by ship？
M：Sorry， my wife is seasick.
W：What about a coach tour？ It includes many interesting places and it’s quite cheap.
M：OK. That’s it.
（Text 7）
W：Did you enjoy yourself in the summer camp？
M：Yes. The food was great. Everything was great， and I made some new friends there.
W：Was there anything impressive？
M：Yeah， the hiking through the Grand Canyon was the most unforgettable. Not only did it test our endurance， but gave us a chance to know more about each other. A boy from Tokyo taught us a few Japanese words and we learned how to dance from the only Indian girl in our group.
W：Do you have any suggestions for us？
M：Well， actually I do hope that the camp can be extended to 10 days instead of just a week so that everybody can have a good rest.
（Text 8）
M：Hello， Carol. You look unhappy. What’s the matter？
W：Hi， David. I’ve just come back from the stadium. You know， there was a wonderful volleyball match this afternoon. But my favorite team was beaten.
M：Sometimes you win while sometimes you lose.
W：Yeah. But it is still hard to believe it. Oh， forget it. What about your performance？
M：It was a success. Joan is such a talented actress that the role Juliet she played attracted all of the audience’s attention and moved them to tears in the last scene.
W：You must be the most handsome Romeo.
M：Thank you.
（Text 9）
W：Are you available tonight？
M：What’s up？
W：Can you do me a favor to fix the lock for me？
M：Of course. I will bring the tool myself.
W：Why bother？ I do have a hammer.
M：OK.
W：Is 7 pm fine with you？
M：Actually， I’ll be at Mike’s to watch the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona then. What about 5 pm？
[WT][WT]
W：Certainly. Thanks！ Hope you won’t miss the match.
M：I won’t. Would you like to join us？
W：Sounds good. How can we get to Mike’s？
M：We can either walk there or take a bus. It is not far away from your apartment.
W：Wait a moment. I’ll call the garage to see whether my car is ready. Maybe we can drive there.
M：Oh， that would be great. I’m leaving for the supermarket. Nothing is better than watching a football match with a bottle of beer.
W：Really？ I’m afraid I don’t need to pick up the car as I can’t drink and drive.
M：OK. We can go there on foot， and come back by taxi.
W：OK， it’s a deal！

Ladies and gentlemen，
Good afternoon！ On behalf of China Southern Airlines， I’d like to welcome you on board Flight CZ300 traveling from Chengdu to Chicago via （經過） Hong Kong. It will be a 15-hour flight over the Pacific Ocean. We expect to arrive at 8：00 am， so in terms of time， the flight will be long. We will be flying at an altitude of 12，000 meters and the average speed is 700km/h. In order to ensure the normal operation of the aircraft， cell phones， laptops and other electronic devices are not allowed to use during the flight. We do have some uncertain conditions on the way owing to the thunderstorm in the nearby area， but there is nothing to worry about. It is currently cloudy with showers in Chicago. Hopefully， it will clear up when we arrive there. We are taking off soon. Please be seated and have your seat belt fastened. Make sure your seat back is straight up， your tray table is closed and your carry-on luggage is securely and properly placed. This is a non-smoking flight， so please do not smoke on board. Wish you an enjoyable trip.
Thank you！

28.B　段落大意題。根據第一段中的physical punishment was ineffective可知，第一段主要講述了用體罰對付孩子是沒有用的。
29.D　細節理解題。根據第三段中的Like many kids， I wasn’t bad； I was bored.可知，根據作者的說法，許多孩子經常做他們不被允許做的事情，是因為他們認為他們的日常生活很無聊。
30.C　細節理解題。根據第四段和第五段內容可知，作者的父親懲罰他的方法是強迫他讀一些書，然后再測試他。
31.A　推理判斷題。文章最后一段講述了父親對作者進行的閱讀的懲罰方法是非常成功的，即在智力上常被挑戰的孩子更有可能成功。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了家長們對玩具的狂熱，說明了家長們買玩具是以為玩具可以幫助孩子們獲得成功，但實際上這是家長們的誤解，與發展科學相違背。
32.C　推理判斷題。根據第一段內容和第二段第一句可知，作者先提到自己家中有很多玩具，然后指出擁有大量玩具的現象很極端，也很尋常。由此推知，他的目的是展示父母對玩具的狂熱。
33.A　推理判斷題。根據第二段內容可知，作者先點明自己的觀點，然后描述美國家庭和英國家庭孩子們擁有玩具的情況。由此可知，作者通過列數字來支撐自己的觀點。
34.D　推理判斷題。根據第三段中的Then， in the second half ... in order to build more competitive and successful grown-ups.和第四段中的This generation of parents is asking toys to provide an end product， and that end product is success可知，家長們購買玩具是為了讓孩子成為成功的成年人，確保他們最終可以成功。由此可知，家長們的誤解是以為玩具可以促進孩子的成功。
35.D　標題歸納題。通讀全文尤其是最后一段內容可知，作者分享了自己收拾家中玩具的經歷，就家長們對玩具的狂熱展開討論，說明了家長們買玩具是以為玩具可以幫助孩子們獲得成功，但實際上這是家長們的誤解，與發展科學相違背。因此，D項（我們對玩具的理解錯了嗎？）適合作為文章標題。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了如何在家庭中創造新傳統。
36.B　上文提到了創造新傳統，下文說明了創造新傳統的方法。B項（以下是如何開始）符合語境。
37.G　上文提到了現在的傳統，下文提到他們可能已忘記某些活動但可能重新記起。G項（問問家里的長輩，他們記得小時候參加過哪些傳統活動）符合語境。
38.A　根據本段內容可知，本段的主旨是收集家人對新傳統的方法。A項中new ideas對應下文the thoughts you and your family may have for brand-new traditions。A項（頭腦風暴新想法）可作本段小標題。
39.F　根據下文可知，本段主要介紹了如何組織家庭聚會。F項（許多家庭的成員都喜歡把大家聚在一起）符合語境。
40.E　下文提到了你可以把它裝到相框里，由此可知本句是在建議拍照留念。E項（你們在一起的時候可以考慮拍照）符合語境。
第三部分
語篇解讀：本文是一篇議論文。父母對孩子的愛是理性的嗎？當然不是。雖然孩子會慢慢長大，但在父母眼中，孩子永遠是孩子，永遠都長不大。
41.C　根據下文的romantic love和parental love可知，此處是指“愛”不是理性的。
42.C　but前后兩個分句之間是轉折關系，所以該空表達的意思要與can understand意義相反，hard to accept符合語境。
43.D　根據下文可知，作者的女兒問了個問題。
44.A　根據下文可知，作者的女兒進行過多次探險，也去過外地旅游，但是作者還是讓她過馬路的時候要小心，她覺得沒有必要，所以有些生氣。
45.A　根據語境可知，作者讓女兒過馬路的時候小心一些。
46.B　上文是作者女兒問的問題，所以此處表示，對于這樣的問題，父母給不出令人滿意的答案。
47.B　根據下文的warning可知，此處指當作者50歲的時候，他的母親還是會提醒他車不要開得太快。select選擇；remind提醒；insist堅持；expect期待；預料。
48.C　根據語境可知，此處指如果作者80歲了而他的母親還活著，他會得到同樣的警告。
49.D　孩子在離家很遠的地方時，父母所擔心的肯定是他們的安全。根據下一段中的the old protective urge也可以推斷出答案。
50.B　根據上文可知，當孩子不在父母身邊時，父母對孩子的安全問題無能為力，就盡力不去想這件事了。
51.A　此處表示但是當孩子離得近的時候，這種原先的保護的沖動很快又出現了。come back重新出現。
52.C　根據語境可知，此處指無論他們走了多遠或經歷過什么都沒關系。matter在此處作動詞，意為“有關系；重要”。
53.A　根據上文作者的女兒去過很多地方探險，但作者還是提醒她過馬路時要小心可知，作者認為大多數事故就發生在身邊，而不是在雨林里。accident事故。
54.B　根據上文中的the old protective urge可知，此處指生物保護幼小的本能。
55.C　在父母的思想里，孩子的年齡會增長，但是孩子并沒有長大。根據第七段最后一句可知，無論孩子多大，在父母眼里都是沒長大的孩子。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。青春期對父母和孩子都是一個挑戰。父母和孩子之間的關系需要重新定義，父母需要適時放手，讓孩子自由成長。
56.challenging　考查詞形轉換。此處應用形容詞作表語，故填challenging。
57.it　考查代詞。此處代指上文提到的Adolescence，應用it作賓語。
58.behavior/behaviour　考查詞形轉換。定冠詞the后應用名詞，故填behavior/behaviour。
59.enjoyed　考查動詞的時態。空處作謂語，此處是描述小時候發生的事，應用一般過去時，故填enjoyed。
60.which/that　考查定語從句。空處引導限制性定語從句，修飾先行詞an emotional hurdle，指物，且關系詞在從句中作主語，故填which/that。
61.totally　考查詞形轉換。此處作狀語，修飾形容詞sure，應用副詞，故填totally。
62.from　考查介詞。from ...point of view從……的角度，故填from。
63.to raise　考查非謂語動詞。此處作目的狀語，應用動詞不定式，故填to raise。
64.that　考查名詞性從句。空處引導賓語從句，從句句意完整不缺少任何成分，應用無任何意義只起連接作用的that引導，此處是第二個賓語從句，that不能省略。
65.held　考查非謂語動詞。feel是感官動詞，此處應用非謂語動詞作表語，主語you和動詞hold是動賓關系，應用過去分詞作表語。hold back意為“抑制”。故填held。

參考范文：
Dear Lisa，
　　I am sorry to hear that you are going through a hard time at the moment.The truth is that a number of students are under stress when entering senior high school， so there is no need for you to feel anxious.Here I’d like to offer you some useful suggestions.
　　First of all， try to put yourself into your parents’ shoes， then you will understand why they expect so much of you — maybe they wish you to have a bright future.Second， you could try communicating your feelings to your parents in a friendly way， which will help you reduce your stress.Last but not least， be confident about yourself， and everything will come out all right in the end.
　　I sincerely hope my suggestions will be of help to you， and you can free yourself from the stress soon.
Yours，
Li Hua
第二節
參考范文：
　　Approaching the doorway， Jenny took a deep breath. When she knocked at the door， she found the door was locked and her mother was not in.Tired and sad， she sat down in front of the house.“Where could my mother be？” she wondered.“Was she still angry with me？” Again， the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind.She remembered her rudeness to her mother.Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her， she felt rather ashamed， and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
　　A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face of her mother.“Here you come！ I’ve been looking for you，” she said， tired and relieved.Jenny couldn’t help throwing herself into her mother’s arms.“Mum， I’m so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me.” She expressed her sincere apology and great gratitude.Hearing this， her mother smiled patting her back gently.

（Text 1）
M：Sorry， I have forgotten John’s address.
W：You forgot again！ It’s 1343 King Street.
（Text 2）
M：The car is very nice.Did you buy it last month？
W：No， I rented it for a holiday last week. And my own car I bought
three years ago is still good.
（Text 3）
M：Your skirt is quite beautiful in color， isn’t it？
W：Yes， I bought it at a sale for half price. It cost me 12.
（Text 4）
M：I hope I can see you at my birthday party.
W：Oh， dear， I’ve almost forgotten. When is it？
M：Well， the day after April Fools’ Day. Easy to remember， isn’t
it？
W：Yes， of course.
（Text 5）
M：I hear you are going to drive to New York this weekend.
W：Oh， I’ve changed my mind.
M：What？
W：I think flying will be more comfortable.
（Text 6）
W：Have a look at these brochures. Have you ever thought of visiting
South America？
M：Well， I’ve traveled to Brazil on business twice and I’d really like
to go there a third time.
W：Great！ There will be a flight on Oct.25th and ...
M：Flight？ Forget that！ I am afraid of flying.
W：Oh， how about traveling by ship？
M：Sorry， my wife is seasick.
W：What about a coach tour？ It includes many interesting places and
it’s quite cheap.
M：OK. That’s it.
（Text 7）
W：Did you enjoy yourself in the summer camp？
M：Yes. The food was great. Everything was great， and I made some
new friends there.
W：Was there anything impressive？
M：Yeah， the hiking through the Grand Canyon was the most
unforgettable. Not only did it test our endurance， but gave us a chance to
know more about each other. A boy from Tokyo taught us a few Japanese
words and we learned how to dance from the only Indian girl in our group.
W：Do you have any suggestions for us？
M：Well， actually I do hope that the camp can be extended to 10 days
instead of just a week so that everybody can have a good rest.
（Text 8）
M：Hello， Carol. You look unhappy. What’s the matter？
W：Hi， David. I’ve just come back from the stadium. You know，
there was a wonderful volleyball match this afternoon. But my favorite
team was beaten.
M：Sometimes you win while sometimes you lose.
W：Yeah. But it is still hard to believe it. Oh， forget it. What about
your performance？
M：It was a success. Joan is such a talented actress that the role Juliet she
played attracted all of the audience’s attention and moved them to tears in
the last scene.
W：You must be the most handsome Romeo.
M：Thank you.
（Text 9）
W：Are you available tonight？
M：What’s up？
W：Can you do me a favor to fix the lock for me？
M：Of course. I will bring the tool myself.
W：Why bother？ I do have a hammer.
M：OK.
W：Is 7 pm fine with you？
M：Actually， I’ll be at Mike’s to watch the match between Real
Madrid and Barcelona then. What about 5 pm？
W：Certainly. Thanks！ Hope you won’t miss the match.
M：I won’t. Would you like to join us？
W：Sounds good. How can we get to Mike’s？
M：We can either walk there or take a bus. It is not far away from your
apartment.
W：Wait a moment. I’ll call the garage to see whether my car is ready.
Maybe we can drive there.
M：Oh， that would be great. I’m leaving for the supermarket. Nothing
is better than watching a football match with a bottle of beer.
W：Really？ I’m afraid I don’t need to pick up the car as I can’t
drink and drive.
M：OK. We can go there on foot， and come back by taxi.
W：OK， it’s a deal！

Ladies and gentlemen，
Good afternoon！ On behalf of China Southern Airlines， I’d like
to welcome you on board Flight CZ300 traveling from Chengdu to
Chicago via （經過） Hong Kong. It will be a 15-hour flight over the
Pacific Ocean. We expect to arrive at 8：00 am， so in terms of time，
the flight will be long. We will be flying at an altitude of 12，000 meters
and the average speed is 700km/h. In order to ensure the normal operation
of the aircraft， cell phones， laptops and other electronic devices are not
allowed to use during the flight.
We do have some uncertain conditions on the way owing to the
thunderstorm in the nearby area， but there is nothing to worry about. It is
currently cloudy with showers in Chicago. Hopefully， it will clear up
when we arrive there. We are taking off soon. Please be seated and have
your seat belt fastened. Make sure your seat back is straight up， your tray table is closed and your carry-on luggage is securely and properly placed.
This is a non-smoking flight， so please do not smoke on board. Wish you
an enjoyable trip.
Thank you！

　　閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳
選項。

Developing Children’s Persistence
　　One of the most important lessons a child can learn is not to give up
when faced with a challenging situation， but instead to continue and
overcome it.
　　Invention education
As the importance of STEM （science， technology， engineering
and mathematics） subjects continues to grow due to the world’s
increasing complexity （復雜性）， invention education has become a
popular way for children to explore these fields in pleasant ways.
　　At Camp Invention， there are no “right” or “wrong” ways to
complete each day’s set of challenges and activities.Those who take part
in it are able to seek solutions that naturally interest them.For example，
campers learn how to change their cars to travel across the land， and
create basic theory that could help them move through the air and even
underwater by using the same method shared by some of the world’s
most well-known inventors！
The Innovation Mindset
Working with our national innovators whose discoveries continue to
improve the lives of people everywhere， we have recognized nine basic
skills that can benefit children throughout their lives.We call this the
Innovation Mindset， and it influences the development of all our
education programmes.
　　Persistence is a very important part of the Innovation Mindset because
it teaches children to recover from setbacks and overcome difficulties to
reach their goals.Because our programmes develop determination through
a “create， test and retest” way of learning， students build the strength
and confidence to take on any challenges that stand in their way.

　　One summer during high school， my mom volunteered me to help
Grandpa research our family tree.It’s terrible to imagine hours spent
dusting boxes and listening to boring stories about people I didn’t
know.“You’ll be surprised，” my mom promised.“Family history
can be very interesting.”
　　In truth， Grandpa didn’t want to limit my work to just research，
hoping to also keep our family memories.He’d discovered a computer
program that helped digitally scan old pictures and letters to maintain their
contents before they crumble from age.Grandpa wanted me to help him
connect the scanner and set up the computer program.He could type
documents and send emails， but had never used a scanner.
　　Soon after， I became interested my relatives’ lives.I asked
Grandpa to tell the story behind every picture and letter we scanned.The
stories， which turned out not to be boring at all， helped me not only
understand but also relate to my relatives.I became so eager for more
information that Grandpa needed additional props （道具） to keep me
satisfied.He showed me a chest filled with random stuff， all covered in
dust.
　　Looking through their belongings， I felt I was opening a window to
the world of my relatives， a world long since gone.Grandpa showed me
letters he had sent to Grandma from the front line of World War Ⅱ and I
could almost smell the gunpowder.I turned the pages of my great-
grandmother’s recipe book and could picture her cooking in her
kitchen.All of the people who had been only names to me now had faces
to match.
　　Later， Grandpa admitted，“I probably could have done this project
myself.I just wanted someone to share it with.” I can’t thank him
enough for sharing the experience and making me appreciate the family
members who have made me who I am.

　　A recent study on parents who beat their children indicated that
physical punishment still happens far more frequently than previously （先
前地） thought but that physical punishment was ineffective.73 per cent
of the children who were hit waited less than 10 minutes before acting out
again.
　　Many parents deal with their children’s mistakes by taking away
toys and separating them from their playmates.But for strong-willed kids
like I was， none of these methods were effective.
　　Like many kids， I wasn’t bad； I was bored.Fortunately， my
father realized this fairly early and developed a new form of “discipline
（原則）” that produced immediate results and long-term positive
effects.
　　Looking back as an adult， my father’s method of making me read
the encyclopedia （百科全書） whenever I did something wrong was the
best thing he could have done.
　　He would tell me a topic and say， “Learn about the aardvark （土
豚） and I’m going to test you shortly after.” It was punishment in the
sense that I was forced to stop whatever I was doing， but it also had a
purpose in that it kept my mind occupied and presented the type of mental
challenge I clearly lacked.
　　Although unwillingly， I went to learn absolutely everything there to
know about aardvarks because I was going to figure out every question he
could throw at me.If it weren’t for my driving need to prove him
wrong， it may not have worked as well as it did.
　　So that’s just it： It was effective.It helped me change my behavior
in that moment and it conditioned me to seek out books when I was
bored.Obviously， that happened frequently and apparently and it
worked.I grew up to become a successful lawyer and a famous writer as
well.To this day， Dad’s the only one who can beat me.

A. It reports the result of a recent study about the encyclopedia.
B. Physical punishment is useless to deal with children.
C. Physical punishment only happened previously.
D. 73 per cent of the children love physical punishment.
解析：　段落大意題。根據第一段中的physical punishment was
ineffective可知，第一段主要講述了用體罰對付孩子是沒有用的。
29. Why do many kids frequently do what they’re not allowed to do
according to the author？
A. Because they produce immediate results and long-term positive
effects.
B. Because they prefer to break the “discipline” set by their parents.

D. Because they often find it’s boring in their everyday life.
解析：　細節理解題。根據第三段中的Like many kids， I
wasn’t bad； I was bored.可知，根據作者的說法，許多孩子
經常做他們不被允許做的事情，是因為他們認為他們的日常生
活很無聊。

mistakes？
A. His father angrily took away his favorite toys.

their kids.

D. The stricter parents are， the fewer mistakes children will make.
解析：　推理判斷題。文章最后一段講述了父親對作者進行的
閱讀的懲罰方法是非常成功的，即在智力上常被挑戰的孩子更有
可能成功。
D
　　The week my eldest son finished pre-school education， I decided to
clear out the playroom filled with his toys.Toys had kept him company
whenever his mother and I were busy with other duties， and over the
years we had collected a really large number of them.Here are some of
what I found： 13 puzzles， 4 games for practising maths， and a speaker
box that could play Mozart to develop musical ability.
　　Our masses of playthings may have been extreme， but it was by no
means unusual.American families spend， on average， around 600
dollars every year on toys； a 10-year-old child in the UK may have
owned 238 toys， totaling about 6，500 pounds.
　　During the past two centuries， educators， toy companies and
parents like us have acted as if the purpose of play is to prepare children
for adulthood.The more book learning we could pack up as play， and
then give to our children， the better.Then， in the second half of the
20th century， toys were increasingly bought for the purpose of building
better brains in order to build more competitive and successful grown-
ups.By 2020， the different kinds of educational toys had made nearly
$65 billion worldwide.Toys that teach — from the Speak & Spell to the
See & Say — are now a part of many young lives.
　　“This generation of parents is asking toys to provide an end
product， and that end product is success，” Richard Gottlieb， an
influential toy industry advisor， commented.“They want toys to get
their children into Harvard.”
　　“The model has been， ‘If I get toys that do schoolish things，
then that’s good，’” Alison Gopnik， a leading developmental
psychologist， said.“But that really goes against what the developmental
science is telling us.For a long time， we’ve been getting our children，
and their toys， all wrong.”

　　Are parents rational （理性的） about their children？ No.Parents
aren’t rational because 　41　 isn’t rational.Young people can
understand this about romantic love， but they find it 　42　 to accept
this part in parental love.
My eldest daughter’s 　43　 the other day brought this up.“Let
me ask you something， Dad，” she began to control 　44　 patiently
that every experienced parent knows.
“I sailed around the Mediterranean when I was seventeen，” she
said.“I hiked through the Pyrenees.I’ve done rock climbing and deep-
sea diving and slept in rainforests.Right？”
“Right，” I said “So what？”
“So this，” she went on.“When I go to the corner drugstore to
pick up some shampoo， why do you always tell me to be 　45　 when I
cross the street？”
There is no satisfactory 　46　 a parent can give to this.
All I could say in reply was that when I was 50， my mother
would 　47　 me not to drive too fast.If I were 80 and she were still
alive， I would be getting the 　48　 warning.No matter what the age，
a child is a child.
There is something else， too， that children find it hard to
understand.When they are far away， there is nothing we can do about
their 　49　.Parents try not to 　50　 about it.
But when the children are close， the old protective urge
quickly 　51　， and it doesn’t 　52　 how far they have been or what
experiences they have got through.
Most 　53　 happen round the corner， not in the rainforest.The
most instinctive （本能的） act of almost every creature is to 　54　 its
young， and this reaction stays for a lifetime.
In the parents’ mind， a child ages but does not 　55　.Rational？
No.But if we were rational， would we want children at all？

　　閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構
成一篇完整的短文。
A Bowl of Noodles
　　Jenny was the only child in her home.She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily.She couldn’t help crying sadly when she thought of the scolding from her mother.Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours， she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat， but it was not even possible for her， since she had nothing with her.She stood beside a stand for a while， watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business.However， with no money in hand， she sighed and had to leave.
　　The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked，
“Hey， girl， you want to have the noodles？”
　　“Oh， yes ...but I don’t have money on me ...” she replied.
　　“That’s nothing.I’ll treat you today，” said the man. “Come
in.”
　　The seller brought her a bowl of noodles， whose smell was so
attractive.Jenny thanked the man and started to gobble （狼吞虎咽） up
the delicious food ... then cried silently.
　　“What is it？” asked the man kindly.
　　“Nothing， actually I was moved by your kindness！” said Jenny
as she wiped her tears.“Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl
of noodles， while my mother drove me out of the house.She showed no
care for me.She is so mean and cruel！”
　　Hearing the words， the seller smiled， “Girl， do you really think
so？ I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is
your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number
the times that she has cooked for you？ Have you expressed your thanks to
her？”
　　Jenny sat there， speechless and numb with shock； she remembered
her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands.“Why did I not think of
that？ A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful， but I
have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
　　On the way home， Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to
her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.
注意：1.續寫詞數應為150左右；
2. 請按如下格式作答。
　　Approaching the doorway， Jenny took a deep breath.

參考范文：
　　Approaching the doorway， Jenny took a deep breath. When she
knocked at the door， she found the door was locked and her mother was
not in.Tired and sad， she sat down in front of the house.“Where could
my mother be？” she wondered.“Was she still angry with me？”
Again， the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind.She remembered
her rudeness to her mother.Realizing that all the scolding from her mother
was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her， she felt
rather ashamed， and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
　　A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head
and saw the familiar face of her mother.“Here you come！ I’ve been
looking for you，” she said， tired and relieved.Jenny couldn’t help
throwing herself into her mother’s arms.“Mum， I’m so sorry and
thank you for all you have done for me.” She expressed her sincere
apology and great gratitude.Hearing this， her mother smiled patting her
back gently.
謝謝觀看！
