It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. The philosophy (理念) behind it is: Say “Hello” and stop war.It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simply saying “Hello” wont bring about world peace. Still, on a smaller range, the simple act of saying hello to someone can make a lot of difference.This might not be obvious. After all, its such a casual thing and requires so little effort. You raise your head to someone as you pass by them in the school corridor (走廊), say “Hello then its over.Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Many people are lonely because theyre shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want lo. It leads to them feeling cut off.On this basis, maybe its a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say “Hello” to as many people as we can. The stranger who hears your greeting may secretly smile in their heart. You might even make their day.Greeting other people is the easiest way to be polite. Politeness is the way we individual humans link up with the rest of the human world outside of our circles of family and friends. Politeness is one of the aspects of culture that make us a society rather than just many individuals living in the same space.No one said it better than the French author Joseph Joubert: “Politeness is the flower of humanity. A “Hello” to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.7. What is World Hello Day intended for?A. Philosophy.B. Peace.C. Politeness.D. War.8. What has an effect on people most?A. Raising heads to others.B. Doing something casually.C. Meeting in the school corridor,D. The simple act of saying hello.9. Why does someone feel lonely?A. They are unwilling to communicate with others.B. They are too shy to communicate with others.C. They are very fond of living alone.D. They dont like doing things as others do.10. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. We should neglect a small thing.B. Saying hello lo others is powerful.C. The flowers make the world better.D. No one is better than Joseph Joubert.【答案】7. B 8. D 9. B 10. B【解析】这篇短文主要通过世界问候日这一主题，说明了对别人说“你好”看似是一件小事，但是这一句小小的问候可能会让世界变得更美好。【7题详解】细节理解题。由第一段Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful.可知，世界问候日的目的在于和平，选B。【8题详解】推理判断题。由第五段On this basis, maybe its a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say “Hello” to as many people as we can.

They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to.可知，有些人感到孤独是因为他们太胆怯了，以至于不能和别人交流，故选B。【10题详解】段落大意题。根据最后一段A “Hello” to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.可知，虽然对别人说“你好”看似是一件小事，但是这一句小小的问候可能会让世界变得更美好，故选B。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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Do teenagers know how to sleep? If youre the parent of teens, you might be laughing to yourself. Thats all they know how to do. In truth, teens might not know enough about how to sleep, when to sleep and why._11_ .Just as we focus on our diets and exercise for health, we need to consider sleep necessary to our mental, physical and psychological health. “Good” sleep is sleep that is long enough to allow your brain to remove the side effects of daytime brain activity. Consistent bed times and wakeup times are the key to keeping our sleep cycles._12_.Teens are social creatures, and the most attractive social “gathering” place these days is on their digital devices._13_. Ideally, we should avoid blue light for at least half an hour before bed. But social media and homework that requires screen time mean too many kids are powering up their devices when their bodies should be powering down for the night._14_. Equally contributing to sleep issues are eating too late, taking naps, and failing to get enough exercise. In other words, these people never learned how to sleep.Over time, poor sleep leads to a decline in mood._15_. Significantly, when I speak to my adult patients who are struggling with sleep issues, nearly all of them say their sleep problems started in high school.Therefore, I recommend sleep education. Otherwise, we wont necessarily solve the health, safety and economic issues of sleepy teens.A. When they are disturbed, our sleep is affectedB. Going to bed too late is only one part of sleep problemsC. Being exposed to blue light from our screens delays sleepD. Current school schedules allow for about seven hours of sleep a nightE.

As far as Im concerned, one important element is missing: sleep education【答案】11. G 12. A13. C 14. B15. E【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是青少年的睡眠问题。作者推荐睡眠教育。否则，我们就不一定能解决昏昏欲睡的青少年的健康、安全和经济问题。【11题详解】上文提示“事实上，青少年可能对如何睡眠、何时睡觉以及为什么要睡了解得不够多。”承接上文，G项 As far as Im concerned, one important element is missing: sleep education（就我而言，一个重要的因素是缺失的：睡眠教育）切题。关键词sleep，故选G。【12题详解】上文提示“固定的作息时间和起床时间是保持我们的睡眠周期的关键。”承接上文，A项 When they are disturbed, our sleep is affected（当他们被打扰时，我们的睡眠受到影响）切题。该项中的they指上文的Consistent bed times and wake up times，故选A。【13题详解】下文提示“理想情况下，我们应该在睡前至少半小时内避免蓝光。”承接下文，C项 Being exposed to blue light from our screens delays sleep（在我们的屏幕上暴露在蓝光下会延迟睡眠）切题。关键词blue light，故选C。【14题详解】下文提示“同样导致睡眠问题的是吃得太晚，打盹，没有足够的锻炼。”承接下文，B.
