it the man decides to help He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly comes out easily Surprisingly enough the butterfly is unable to fly If the butterfly doesn t struggle 挣扎 奋斗 to leave the chrysalis it can t fly The struggle develops the energy in the butterfly which makes it fly Similarly the challenges of life bring out the best in young people and make the fly When people are young meeting and overcoming challenges will make them strong and ready to face life When we look at successful people we see that the most successful of them are people who have had to struggle One famous businessman who now owns many big supermarkets used to carry clothes on his back and sell them from door to door when he was young Another successful man is Dennis His father died when he was only twenty His father s death forced him to mature fast He had to bring up a family of nine people He took up the challenges and overcame them Today his brothers and sisters are leading successful lives 第 7 页 共 16 页 Sometimes challenges do not appear to us because we keep away from them So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges like rock climbing camping volunteer work and so on However just passing exams will not prepare a person for life We must meet and overcome challenges The young people of today will become the leaders of tomorrow For countries to continue to become successful it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overcome them 1 From the story we know that the butterfly can t fly because A it gets out by itself B the man feels sorry for it C it tries to challenge itself D the man helps it come out 2 Dennis s example shows that successful people should A overcome the difficulties B take up business early C become the leaders of tomorrow D sell clothes from door to door 3 The meaning of the underlined word mature in the passage is A wake up B give up C grow up D bring up 4 What is the writer trying to do in this passage A Describe where a butterfly comes from 第 8 页 共 16 页 B Encourage young people to face challenges C Suggest how to become a successful businessman D Explain what will happen if a person fails the exam 5 What is the best title for this passage A Successful People Have a Sense of Achievement B Young People Must Develop Their Energy Actively C Countries Should Continue to Become Successful D Challenges of Life Bring Out the Best in Young People 13 6 分 阅读理解 Many scientists believe our love of sugar may actually be an addiction 上瘾 When we eat or drink sugary foods the sugar enters our blood and influences parts of our brain that make us feel good Then the good feeling goes away leaving us wanting more All tasty foods do this but sugar has a particularly strong effect In this way it is in fact addictive and doctors suggest we all cut down on it It seems like every time I study an illness I find my way back to sugar says scientist Richard Johnson One third of adults worldwide have high blood pressure 血压 and up to 347 million have diabetes 糖尿病 Why Sugar we believe is one of the reasons if not the main reason says Johnson Our bodies are designed to survive on very little sugar Early humans often had very little food so our bodies learned to keep sugar as fat In this way we had energy stored for when there was no food But today most people have more than enough So the very thing that once saved us may now be killing us So what is the solution It s obvious that we need to eat less sugar The trouble is in today s world it s extremely difficult to avoid From breakfast cereals to after dinner desserts our foods are increasingly filled with it Some manufacturers 制造商 even use sugar to replace taste in foods that are advertised as low in fat This may make the food appear as healthier but 第 9 页 共 16 页 large amounts of sugar are often added But there are those who are fighting back against sugar Many schools are offering more fruit instead of deserts Other schools are building facilities for students to do exercise The battle has not yet been lost 1 Why is sugar addictive A It makes us feel good and want more of it B It has a strong effect on our blood C Tasty foods are full of sugar D There is sugar in medicine 2 According to the passage why is it so hard to avoid sugar A We like candy too much B It gives us needed energy C It is in so many foods and drinks D We get used to eating it at school 3 What is the passage mainly about A Ways to avoid sugar B Our addiction to sugar C Illnesses caused by sugar D Good sugar and bad sugar 14 8 分 阅读理解 Having a teenager at home can be a real headache Many teenagers smoke drink and even fight They often do something dangerous Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely 可能 to make irrational decisions 第 10 页 共 16 页 than people from any other age group including children and adults Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong Not really So what s the reason According to Laurence a teacher from a US university the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers 同龄人 view them that is peer influence As children enter their teenage years they spend more time with their friends and classmates and also they care more about what they think of them This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs In a test a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game When they played with their friends watching around them they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning But when they played alone they drove more safely Why do peers have such a big influence on teens behavior As Laurence sees it a teenager s brain is like a car with a good accelerator 油门 but a weak brake 刹车 The accelerator is fully developed by teenage years while the brake is still not fully developed When teenagers are watched by their peers they usually push hard on the accelerator With their weak brake it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident But the good news is that a violent 暴力的 teenager doesn t necessarily become a violent adult About two thirds to three quarters of violent youth grow out of it They get more self controlled 1 What does the underlined word irrational in the 2nd paragraph mean A Quick B Crazy C Careful 2 Why are teenagers likely to make wrong decisions according to the text A They like difficult tasks B They don t care about costs 第 11 页 共 16 页 C They care a lot about what their peers think of them 3 How does Laurence explain the influence of peer pressure on teens behavior A By comparing it with how a car works B By comparing it with an accident C By showing research findings 4 What can we learn from the text A Teenagers are easy to have traffic accidents B Peer influence is bad on teenagers C Most of the teenagers become less violent when they grow up 四
