As I went off the stage with my award, I heard Fatin call my name. Turning around, the girl I admired was waving to me. She approached me and said cheerfully, “Hey, Sneha! You gave us such an amazing speech. Never had I expected you to be so great! Would you like to be friends with me ” “Sure, Fatin.” I happily accepted her friendship invitation without any hesitation.

21．B 22．A 23．C
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。这篇文章介绍了NSE暑期学校的情况。
21．细节理解题。根据Applicant requirements部分中“Students from other countries will generally not require a visa to study at the Summer School(来自其他国家的学生一般不需要签证就可以在暑期学校学习)”可知，来自国外的学生即使没有签证也可以进入美国。故选B。
22．细节理解题。根据Rate部分中“The reduced student rate applies to full-time students registered at a university or college anywhere in the world.(学生折扣适用于在世界任何地方的大学或学院注册的全日制学生。)”可知，学生折扣适用的是大学或学院注册的全日制学生，题干中的高中生不适合该折扣率。同时根据本段中“Standard Rate: One session: $1,400; Both sessions: $2,400 (标准收费：一学期：$1,400；两学期：2400美元)”可知，高中生不符合学生折扣收费标准，适用于标准收费，两学期共计2400美元。故选A。
23．推理判断题。通读全文，这篇文章介绍了美国教育局夏季学校的相关情况，适合已经或即将上大学的人参加。同时文章介绍了该活动所开设的科目类别以及课程时长和收费等；同时根据最后一段“If any questions, please click here to see our Frequently Asked Questions/Contact Us Page.(如果有任何问题，请点击这里查看我们的常见问题/联系我们页面。)”可知，该文章出自于一个学校的网站。故选C。
24．B 25．D 26．C 27．A
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要报道了在2023年世界女子排球联赛上，中国女排夺得银牌。
24．细节理解题。根据第一段的“with the key to the breakthrough being their unity and never-say-die spirit (突破的关键在于他们的团结和永不言败的精神)”和第二段“‘I just feel that our team is more united than ever,’ said Yuan Xinyue, Team China captain. ‘We support and help each other on the court. This is the most important reason behind our success. All of us should shoulder the responsibility of winning.’(‘我只是觉得我们的球队比以往任何时候都更加团结，’中国队队长袁心玥说。‘我们在场上互相支持、互相帮助。这是我们成功背后最重要的原因。我们所有人都应该肩负起获胜的责任。’)”可知，文中的unity, united, support and help each other表明了中国队在联赛中非常团结。故选B。
25．词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“We will summarize events (我们会总结事件)”并结合画线词后的the problems可知，为了更好地提升实力，队员们会总结事件，解决遇到的问题。tackle意为“应付，解决”，与deal with意思接近。故选D。
26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Although the Chinese women’s team wasn’t able to stand on the highest podium (领奖台) at the Volleyball Nations League, they still produced the best possible result by fighting together.(虽然中国女队没能站上世界排球联赛的最高领奖台，但她们通过共同拼搏，还是取得了最好的成绩)”和“Team China was not among the favorites to reach the final of the VNL, but the team still managed to pocket a silver medal, which is huge progress compared to last year’s result.(中国队不是最有希望进入VNL决赛的球队之一，但她们仍然获得了银牌，与去年的成绩相比，这是一个巨大的进步)”可知，与去年相比，中国队今年取得了巨大的进步，获得了银牌，虽然她们不是热门的夺冠选手，但她们取得了自己最好的成绩。由此可推测出，虽然没能获得金牌，但她们依然取得了重大进步。故选C。
27．主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段“Winning the silver medal at the 2023 FIVB Volleyball Nations League in the United States, on Sunday, the Chinese women’s volleyball team enjoyed their best result in the tournament (联赛), with the key to the breakthrough being their unity and never-say-die spirit.(周日，在美国举行的2023年世界女子排球联赛上，中国女排获得银牌，取得了本次联赛的最佳成绩，而取得突破的关键是她们的团结和永不言败的精神)”引出本文主题，即中国女排在2023年世界女子排球联赛上获得银牌，所以A项“中国队获得银牌”符合题意。故选A。
28．D 29．A 30．B 31．C
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了英语中存在大量法语词汇的现象。本文讲述的是“英语中的法语单词”。文中举例说明了它们不同的含义。诺曼人对英国长期的统治，给英语带来了大量的法语词汇，但意思有差别，有的差别非常大。
28．推理判断题。根据第二段中However, although English took many French words, their meanings have not always stayed the same. Sometimes the differences in meanings can be very important, and lead to funny or strange situations if the words are used in the wrong way.可知，作者对英语中的法语单词强调了它们的不同含义。故选D。
29．推理判断题。根据第三段中In English, the word chat is a verb which means “to talk casually”; but in French, the word chat is the word for an animal: a cat.可知，如果一个法国人说他喜欢a chat，他的意思是“他喜欢一种宠物。”，因为在法语里chat是cat的意思，故选A。
30．词义猜测题。根据最后一段中But in French, jolie means someone is good-looking or pleasant to look at. In any case, both are nice things to say to someone.可知，在法语中，jolie的意思是说某人长得好看或看上去是令人愉快的。无论如何，这两件事对某人来说都是件好事。由此可知划线词在法语里是用来“描述人的外表。”故选B。
31．主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句You may be surprised to learn that English gets 30 to 45 percent of its words from French.和Over time, the two languages combined and shared words. Some researchers believe that about 10,000 French words eventually entered the English language.可知，本文讲述的是“英语中的法语单词”。故选C。
【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。本题第4小题，本文第一段是文章的主题段，指出本文主要讲的是“英语中的法语单词”。故选C。
32．B 33．D 34．B 35．A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。只是聪明并不意味着有人会成功。不能因为一个人不够聪明就认为他会失败。作者讨论了智商和毅力对成功的影响。通过对大量研究的综合分析，作者认为聪明并不意味着成功，也并不意味着相对不聪明的人会失败，但成功的关键因素之一是毅力。
32．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Just being smart doesn’t mean someone will be successful, And just because someone is less intelligent doesn’t mean that person will fail.(聪明并不意味着一定会成功，不聪明也不意味着一定会失败。)”和第二段中的“When digging deeper, Duckworth found that the people who performed best shared a quality independent of intelligence. (深入研究后，Duckworth发现，表现最好的人拥有一种与聪明无关的品质。)”可知，聪明并不完全意味着一个人就会成功，不那么聪明的人也并不一定会失败，表现最好的人拥有一种与智商无关的品质，由此可推知，不是所有聪明人都能成功。故选B。
33．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“She also found that grit increases with education. People who finished college scored higher in the grit test than people who quit before graduation. People who went to graduate school after college scored even higher.(她还发现，毅力随着教育程度的提高而增加。在毅力测试中，大学毕业的人比毕业前辍学的人得分更高。大学毕业后去读研的人得分更高。)”可知，Angela Duckworth认为教育程度可以影响一个人的毅力。故选D。
34．词义猜测题。根据上文的“So she compared scores on college-entrance exams, which test IQ, to school grades and scores on the grit scale. Students with higher grades tended to have more grit. (因此，她将测试智商的大学入学考试的分数与学校成绩和某人在毅力测试中的分数进行了比较。成绩越高的学生更有毅力)”可知，Duckworth认为毅力和成功有很大关系。结合划线词所在句子中的but可知，该句陈述的观点与上文相反，即一些人反对毅力意味着成功这个观点。由此猜测划线词意为“反对”，与Disagree(不同意)同义。故选B。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Study habits and skills, test anxiety and class attendance are far more strongly connected to school grades than grit,” Crede says. “We can teach students how to study well. We can help them with their test anxiety,” he adds. “I’m not sure we can do that with grit.”(“学习习惯和技能、考试焦虑和出勤率与学校成绩的关系要比毅力密切得多，”Crede说，“我们可以教学生如何学好。我们可以帮助他们缓解考试焦虑，”他补充道。“我不确定我们是否能在毅力上做到这一点。”)”可推知，Crede认为学习习惯和技能、考试焦虑和出勤率与学校成绩的关系要比毅力密切得多，他不确定能否教会学生有毅力，这说明教会学生有毅力是很难的，由此可推知，毅力几乎不能被教会。故选A。
36．F 37．B 38．E 39．D 40．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了负责任的意义、好处和做法，鼓励读者学会负责任。
36．后文“You could say the bus was late, but being responsible means apologizing and accepting that it was your responsibility to get there on time.(你可以说公交车晚点了，但负责任意味着道歉并接受准时到达是你的责任)”讲述了面对迟到时负责任的做法，所以空处应是举一个迟到的例子，F项“想象一下，同意见一个朋友，然后却迟到了。”符合题意，选项中的late照应后文。故选F。
37．结合上下文可知，空处应是本段的主旨句，且应用问句形式。根据下文中的“According to research, understanding you have control over your own actions makes you feel more positive and hopeful about the future.(根据研究，了解自己可以控制自己的行为会让你对未来感到更加积极和充满希望)”可知，本段应讲述负责任带来的好处，B项“负责任对你有什么好处？”符合题意。故选B。
38．前文“According to research, understanding you have control over your own actions makes you feel more positive and hopeful about the future.(根据研究，了解自己可以控制自己的行为会让你对未来感到更加积极和充满希望)”讲述了负责任可以让你对未来感到积极和充满希望，再结合接下来的例子和后文中的总结“Being responsible helps you to gain people’s trust.(负责任有助于你赢得人们的信任)”可知，空处应讲述的是负责任的另一个好处是可以让人们更加信任你，E项“承担责任也能让别人更加信任你。”符合题意。故选E。
39．后文“One way of doing this is by drawing a circle of control: what is in this circle of control and what is out of this circle.(一种方法是画一个控制圈：这个控制圈里有什么，这个控制圈外有什么)”讲述了通过画控制圈来把自己能控制的东西和无法控制的东西归类，所以空处应是讲了解自己能控制什么和不能控制什么，D项“首先要了解什么是你能控制的，什么是你不能控制的。”符合题意，选项中的 what is in and out of your control与后文中的what is in this circle of control and what is out of this circle相照应。故选D。
40．根据前文“We can’t always control what happens to us.(我们不能总是控制发生在我们身上的事情)”和后文“We can still choose our attitude.(我们仍然可以选择自己的态度)”可知，空处应与前文形成转折，与下文相衔接，C项“但我们可以控制我们如何应对。”符合题意，But表明前后句之间是转折关系。故选C。
41．C 42．B 43．A 44．B 45．D 46．A 47．C 48．D 49．C 50．B 51．A 52．D 53．D 54．B 55．C

67．One possible version:
Alan sat on his bed and cried for a long time. And then he wiped his tears and started to clean his room. It took him two hours to clean up his room. “I did it!” he said proudly. He even found his missing shoe. He ran to the living room. “Grandma, come and see. I cleaned my room and found my shoe.” Grandma looked at Alan's room and smiled. “If you had kept it this way, you wouldn't have lost your shoe and your mom wouldn't have punished you,” she said.
Alan and his grandma were sitting at the table, eating when his mom,dad and Alex came home. “Well, look at Alan's room!

Winning the silver medal at the 2023 FIVB Volleyball Nations League in the United States, on Sunday, the Chinese women’s volleyball team enjoyed their best result in the tournament (联赛), with the key to the breakthrough being their unity and never-say-die spirit.
“I just feel that our team is more united than ever,” said Yuan Xinyue, Team China captain. “We support and help each other on the court. This is the most important reason behind our success. All of us should shoulder the responsibility of winning.”
She continued to say, “ We have firm determination, and we will keep moving forward. We cherish the road that we have walked. We will summarize events, and we will keep tackling the problems. We will also try hard and hold onto our dreams and the belief that the Chinese women’s volleyball team can be the best.”
Team China was one step away from gold, but the Turkish women’s team showed greater momentum (势头) in the final beating China 3-1. As the Chinese team only finished sixth at last year’s VNL, the second-place finish was a surprise to Chinese fans.
Sunday’s final attracted huge media attention and generated a series of trending topics on social media. While many joined in heated discussion about the final, many more expressed congratulations on the fast rise of the young women’s team.
“Although the Chinese women’s team wasn’t able to stand on the highest podium (领奖台) at the Volleyball Nations League, they still produced the best possible result by fighting together. Hand in hand, Team China players march forward together,” reported by China Sports Daily. “Team China was not among the favorites to reach the final of the VNL, but the team still managed to pocket a silver medal, which is huge progress compared to last year’s result. They proved all the doubters wrong, and they showed the world what a united team they are.”
24．How can we best describe Team China’s performance in the tournament
A．Overconfident. B．United. C．Disappointing. D．Careless.
25．Which can replace the underlined word “tackling” in paragraph 3
A．Checking out. B．Bringing about. C．Giving up. D．Dealing with.
26．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.
A．People were concerned about Team China because it lost the game.
B．Team China played very hard in the tournament and won the first prize.
C．Team China has made significant advances though not pocketing the gold medal.
D．Team China didn’t try their best.
27．What can be the best title for the news report
A．Team China shines in silver medal success
B．Team China not among favorites to reach final
C．Chinese women’s volleyball team plays against Turkish team
D．Team China wins the game

You may be surprised to learn that English gets 30 to 45 percent of its words from French. The reason goes back to the year 1066, when Norman forces invaded（入侵）what is now Britain. The Normans were from northern France and spoke French. During the Norman occupation, French became the language of England’s rulers and wealthy class. This lasted for more than 300 years. Other people in England continued to speak English during this period.
Over time, the two languages combined and shared words. Some researchers believe that about 10,000 French words eventually entered the English language. However, although English took many French words, their meanings have not always stayed the same. Sometimes the differences in meanings can be very important, and lead to funny or strange situations if the words are used in the wrong way.
Take, for example, the French word college. In English, college can often be used in place of the word university, or sometimes as a school within a university. However, in French, college actually means “middle school”, or the level of schooling for students in grades five or six through eight.
There are many other similar words in the two languages with completely different meanings. In English, the word chat is a verb which means “to talk casually”; but in French, the word chat is the word for an animal: a cat.
If an English speaker says someone is jolly, that means they are cheerful or friendly. But in French, jolie means someone is good-looking or pleasant to look at. In any case, both are nice things to say to someone.
28．What does the author stress about the French words in English
A．Their spelling forms. B．Their changes in history.
C．Their puzzles for English. D．Their different meanings.
29．What does a Frenchman mean if he says he likes a chat
A．He likes a kind of pet. B．He wants to have a talk.
C．He hates to speak English. D．He prefers to chat in French.
30．What is the French word “jolie” used to do
A．Replace “jolly” in English. B．Describe people's looks.
C．Refer to people’s happiness. D．Prove the change in French.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．Comparison between two languages. B．Difficulty in mastering English.
C．French words in English. D．Development of English.

Just being intelligent (聪明的) doesn’t mean someone will be successful. And just because someone is less intelligent doesn’t mean that person will fail. That’s one take-home message from the work of people like Angela Duckworth, who works at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
Like many other scientists, Duckworth wondered what makes one person more successful than another. When digging deeper, Duckworth found that the people who performed best shared a quality independent of intelligence. They had what she now calls grit (毅力). Duckworth developed a set of questions to test it. She calls it her “grit scale (量表).”
In one study of people 25 and older, she found that as people age, they become more likely to stick with a project. She also found that git increases with education. People who finished college scored higher on the grit scale than people who quit before graduation. People who went to graduate school after college scored even higher.
She then did another study with college students. Duckworth wanted to see how intelligence and grit influenced performance in school. So she compared scores on college-entrance exams, which measure IQ, to school grades and scores on the grit scale. Students with higher grades tended to have more grit. That’s not surprising. Getting good grades takes both smarts and hard work.
But some people counter that this grit means success. Among those people is Marcus Crede, a professor at Iowa State University in Ames. He recently pooled the results of 88 studies on grit. Together, those studies tested nearly 67, 000 people. And grit did not predict success, Crede found.
However, he thinks grit is very similar to someone’s ability to set goals, work toward them and think things through before acting.
“Study habits and skills, test anxiety and class attendance are far more strongly connected to school grades than grit,” Crede says. “We can teach students how to study well. We can help them with their test anxiety,” he adds. “I’m not sure we can do that with grit.”
32．What can we know from the first two paragraphs
A．Intelligence determines success. B．Not all smart people will succeed.
C．Duckworth redesigned a grit scale. D．Grit decides how intelligent one might be.
33．What might influence a person’s grit according to Angela Duckworth’s findings
A．Lifestyle. B．Family. C．Personality D．Education.
34．What does the underlined word “counter” in paragraph 5 mean
A．Comment. B．Disagree. C．Recognize. D．Warn.
35．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．Grit can hardly be taught. B．Grit can be improved easily
C．Grit is strongly related to test anxiety. D．Grit has nothing to do with school grades.

Learn to Be Responsible
How does it feel when you admit that you have done something wrong Taking responsibility for your actions not only feels good, it teaches you to trust yourself and strengthens friendships.
What does being responsible mean
It can be easy to blame(责怪) others or make excuses for mistakes, but being responsible means accepting that you are wrong. 36 You could say the bus was late, but being responsible means apologizing and accepting that it was your responsibility to get there on time. However, being responsible doesn’t mean taking the blame for things you can’t change. You’re only responsible for things that you can control.
37
According to research, understanding you have control over your own actions makes you feel more positive and hopeful about the future. 38 For example, I remember a time I got the sofa dirty. I was going to lie about it because if my mum saw it, she would get angry. But after I told her the truth, I wasn’t in as much trouble as I thought. Instead, mom praised me for my honesty. Being responsible helps you to gain people’s trust.
How can you be responsible
39 One way of doing this is by drawing a circle of control: what is in this circle of control and what is out of this circle. As well as being responsible for what you can change, try accepting the things you can’t. We can’t always control what happens to us. 40 We can still choose our attitude. And most of the time, attitude decides if you are truly a responsible person.
A．What makes you responsible
B．How is being responsible good for you
C．But we can control how we respond to it.
D．Start by understanding what is in and out of your control.
E．Taking responsibility can also make others trust you more.
F．Imagine agreeing to meet a friend and then turning up late.
G．This can increase your happiness and help you achieve more.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
With new faces everywhere, the time in Grade 1 was really tough for me. Since I was an Indian girl, nobody wanted to talk to me. Every spare minute was spent alone, and no classmates would group with me for projects.
Feeling lonely and sad, I was in desperate need of close friends. A girl named Fatin, who was cute, clever and talented, appealed to me deeply. However, she seemed to be avoiding me as well. Being only six years old, I didn’t understand why people treated me like that, I opened up to my mother about all this, almost crying my eyes out.
Mom smiled, comforting me until I calmed down. She looked into my eyes and encouraged me, “Honey, don’t worry. They’re just not familiar with you. Try to bring out the best in you. They’ll befriend (做朋友) you as long as they see your advantages.” At that time, I didn’t believe her, but Mom was right.
One day, my teacher, Miss Barbara, announced that there was to be a speech competition. I really enjoyed joining in speech competitions. Actually, I was quite good at them. The only problem was that the whole school would be watching me and I knew none of my audience.
However, I was determined to do it. I gathered all my courage, went up to the teacher and said, “Miss Barbara, I want to join in the speech competition.” She stared at me, but then I saw a gentle smile on her face. She handed me an application form.
The next day, I arrived at school early to submit (提交)my form to the teacher. Miss Barbara said encouragingly to me, “For a new student, you have lots of courage. Do your best, Diya!” Rarely did Miss Barbara praise anyone. Her words lifted up my spirits that day. Until the competition day, I practised my speech whenever possible. I even designed the necessary hand gestures and did repeated practice in front of a mirror.
