Working with a stressed mind is like swimming with a jacket on, while a mind free from work stress is light like the wind and it can help you accomplish your daily tasks easily. To relieve (缓解）stress and lighten your mind, you must first understand the nature of stress and the reasons why it builds up. Then you can easily beat stress.
Talk it out
Talking to others helps relieve work stress especially when you and the person you talk to are in the same boat and under the same work stress. Your worries will be divided! If you are your own boss, you need some good advisers around you, who know your trouble and talk sense. If there is no such persons at your workplace, let there be one at home, who is a friend, a family member or a guide that you can talk to.
Let music calm your mind
Music has the power to take you into a new world, away from your worries. Taking a break to listen to some favorite music is also a great way to relieve stress.
Take a walk
If there is a park around, go and have a walk there. You can eat some snacks sitting on the grass. Move around, look at the world around you and forget your work for a while. Let your body get some exercise. A walk works as it also clears your thoughts. You can listen to music while going on a walk.
Have a life beyond the workplace
If you keep thinking about nothing other than work all the time, there is bound to be stress. So, throw away your thoughts about work after you leave your office and get a life beyond it. Have a life beyond the workplace, and you can relax after work.

An unpleasant smell floated into my nose as the bowl of fried stinky tofu（臭豆腐） settled onto my grandmother’s dinner table. I immediately sat back. The smell ruined my appetite, and I pushed the dish away.
“It’s supposed to stink. Just give it a try!” my grandmother said.
Holding my breath, I unwillingly took a bite. To my surprise, the tofu beneath the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering. Since then, whenever I visited my grandmother’s house, I would rush to the kitchen for the stinky tofu with excitement. Thus, stinky tofu became more than a household tradition. It became my favorite dish.
Along with the stinky tofu, I would meet my Uncle Chan on every visit. As an immature boy, I never understood my uncle’s condition of Down syndrome（唐氏综合征）.
He was an unfriendly and terrible creature in my eyes. He constantly walked around the house, talking to himself. Whenever he was within view, I would run away in fear.
However, one day, my view of my uncle suddenly changed. I was just getting out of my bed when I heard soft steps approaching. It was my uncle. My muscles froze. He slowly sat next to me and touched my face gently, as a mother would stroke （抚摸）a baby.
A wide smile emerged from his blank expression. How beautiful his smile was! I could not help but smile back. My fear disappeared gradually, and my muscles relaxed. For the first time, I could see softness and warmth in his eyes.
My uncle very much resembles stinky tofu. Stinky tofu smells unpleasant on the outside, yet feels warm and soft in the inside. Like stinky tofu, my uncle’s Down syndrome made me keep my distance at first. Yet, I learned that deep inside, he is harmless and has a loving nature.
Some people tend to look down upon disabled people and regard them as unfit for a regular life. As I was able to see through the outer surface of the tofu, these people are unable to see through the surface of prejudice（偏见）. As a result, they judge the disabled with one glance.
The outside and inside of the stinky tofu exist as two extremely different worlds. Perhaps that is what makes it such a tasty dish. Not only is it delicious, stinky tofu offers a valuable lesson: never judge people at first glance, for true beauty comes from the inside.
41. Why did stinky tofu become the author’s favorite dish
A. It was related to family tradition.
B. It turned out to be quite delicious.
C. Grandma encouraged him to try it.
D. His appetite for food had increased.
42. What did the author think of his uncle at first
A. He was a quiet person.
B. He was an energetic guy.
C. He was an immature man.
D. He was a strange creature.
43. The author’s attitude towards Uncle Chan changed when .
A. Chan’s footsteps woke up the author
B. Chan showed his friendliness to the author
C. Chan displayed his love towards his mother
D. Chan’s blank expression made the author smile
44. The comparison between stinky tofu and the author’s uncle serves to _.
A. highlight the nature of Uncle Chan
B. analyze the family relationship
C. describe a childhood memory
D. introduce a traditional Chinese food
45. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage
A. We shouldn’t judge by appearances.
B. A person’s taste changes over time.
C. Blood is thicker than water.
D. You are what you eat.
C
The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的）skill. However，while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.
Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.
Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.
In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.
Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换）“those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.
“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won't have knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”
46. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past
A. The absence of blackboard in classroom.
B. The use of new technologies in teaching.
C. The lack of practice in handwriting.
D. The popular use of smartphones.
47. Berninger’s study published in 2009 .
A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.
B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.
C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.
D. discussed the importance of writing speed.
48. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling
A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.
B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.
C Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.
D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.
49. What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Window. B. Soul
C. Picture. D. Imagination.
50. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage
A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.
B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.
C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.
D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.

阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Months earlier, my wife Lisa had woken up at 4: 45 am, preparing to do exercise. She heard voices coming from the upstairs game room and decided to investigate. She discovered that our older son, Hunter. had been playing the video game Fortnite since he got home from school the previous day. What she found angered both of us.
We were sick and tired of the amount of time Hunter spent playing video games. He was so addicted to video games. Back in the 1980s, instead of playing video games, we kids were crazy about playing baseball and street football, driving hoops (大环圈) outside the house, etc. But times are different now. It becomes apparent that kids of the new generation are entirely different from kids of my generation. My kid and his peers (同龄人) are crazy about electronic products. I work in a summer camp and am responsible for the field sports programme. I often notice many of the campers playing video games on little portable (便携式的) devices.
I began to refer to kids who spent more time playing video games than playing sports as the Nintendo Generation. In an attempt to ensure that our kid did not become a member of the Nintendo Generation, I came up with a programme to help Hunter deal with his bad habit. It was that video-game time in our house would have to be earned, just like money. I set the exchange rate: Each mile run equals 30 minutes of video-game play.
The first couple of days didn’t go well. Instead of choosing to run to win the time of playing games, he decided to boycott my programme and spend time sleeping. But eventually. Hunter came around, and decided he would give running a shot. Now, Hunter is in good health and can run 18 miles. But nine months earlier, he was not in any condition to run five miles.
I hope that running teaches my son to invest his time in worthwhile efforts, to do something hard, but quite meaningful and beneficial and then to enjoy a reward. I never want him to stop challenging himself.

An unpleasant smell floated into my nose as the bowl of fried stinky tofu（臭豆腐） settled onto my grandmother’s dinner table. I immediately sat back. The smell ruined my appetite, and I pushed the dish away.
“It’s supposed to stink. Just give it a try!” my grandmother said.
Holding my breath, I unwillingly took a bite. To my surprise, the tofu beneath the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering. Since then, whenever I visited my grandmother’s house, I would rush to the kitchen for the stinky tofu with excitement. Thus, stinky tofu became more than a household tradition. It became my favorite dish.
Along with the stinky tofu, I would meet my Uncle Chan on every visit. As an immature boy, I never understood my uncle’s condition of Down syndrome（唐氏综合征）.
He was an unfriendly and terrible creature in my eyes. He constantly walked around the house, talking to himself. Whenever he was within view, I would run away in fear.
However, one day, my view of my uncle suddenly changed. I was just getting out of my bed when I heard soft steps approaching. It was my uncle. My muscles froze. He slowly sat next to me and touched my face gently, as a mother would stroke （抚摸）a baby.
A wide smile emerged from his blank expression. How beautiful his smile was! I could not help but smile back. My fear disappeared gradually, and my muscles relaxed. For the first time, I could see softness and warmth in his eyes.
My uncle very much resembles stinky tofu. Stinky tofu smells unpleasant on the outside, yet feels warm and soft in the inside. Like stinky tofu, my uncle’s Down syndrome made me keep my distance at first. Yet, I learned that deep inside, he is harmless and has a loving nature.
Some people tend to look down upon disabled people and regard them as unfit for a regular life. As I was able to see through the outer surface of the tofu, these people are unable to see through the surface of prejudice（偏见）. As a result, they judge the disabled with one glance.
The outside and inside of the stinky tofu exist as two extremely different worlds. Perhaps that is what makes it such a tasty dish. Not only is it delicious, stinky tofu offers a valuable lesson: never judge people at first glance, for true beauty comes from the inside.
41. Why did stinky tofu become the author’s favorite dish
A. It was related to family tradition.
B. It turned out to be quite delicious.
C. Grandma encouraged him to try it.
D. His appetite for food had increased.
42. What did the author think of his uncle at first
A. He was a quiet person.
B. He was an energetic guy.
C. He was an immature man.
D. He was a strange creature.
43. The author’s attitude towards Uncle Chan changed when .
A. Chan’s footsteps woke up the author
B. Chan showed his friendliness to the author
C. Chan displayed his love towards his mother
D. Chan’s blank expression made the author smile
44. The comparison between stinky tofu and the author’s uncle serves to _.
A. highlight the nature of Uncle Chan
B. analyze the family relationship
C. describe a childhood memory
D. introduce a traditional Chinese food
45. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage
A. We shouldn’t judge by appearances.
B. A person’s taste changes over time.
C. Blood is thicker than water.
D. You are what you eat.
【答案】41. B 42. D 43. B 44. A 45. A
【解析】
【分析】本文为记叙文。作者通过吃臭豆腐及对患有唐氏综合征的叔叔的再认识，得出了“不要以貌取人，心里美才是真的美”的人生哲理。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的To my surprise, the tofu beneath the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering.（令我惊讶的是，油炸后的豆腐又热又软，令人垂涎欲滴）可知，臭豆腐成了作者最喜欢的菜，是因为它很好吃。故B选项正确。
【42题详解】

The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的）skill. However，while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.
Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.
Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.
In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.
Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换）“those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.
“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won't have knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”
46. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past
A. The absence of blackboard in classroom.
B. The use of new technologies in teaching.
C. The lack of practice in handwriting.
D. The popular use of smartphones.
47. Berninger’s study published in 2009 .
A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.
B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.
C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.
D. discussed the importance of writing speed.
48. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling
A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.
B Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.
C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.
D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.
49. What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Window. B. Soul
C. Picture. D. Imagination.
50. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage
A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.
B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.
C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.
D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.
【答案】46. B 47. A 48. B 49. D 50. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。随着现代科技的发展，书写渐渐被人们所忽视。但是Berninger的研究表明，书写在现代教学中应该占有一席之地。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的)skill.（随着像电脑和智能手机的使用，书写已经成为了人们怀旧的东西）。所以教学中使用新技术使得手写成为过去。故选B项。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段首句“Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand.（Berninger和她的同事做了个研究，想看看学生用电脑和用手工完成各种写的任务的情况）可知，伯宁格在2009年发表的研究集中在手写和电脑书写的区别上。故选A项。
48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段首句“In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write.（在更近的一次研究中，Berninge想看看拼写在学生写作技巧中所发挥的什么作用，结果发现字写得好的孩子文章也写得好）。所以拼写能力与写作能力密切相关能说明拼写的作用。故选B项。
【49题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段“Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换）“those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said.”可知，拼写帮助学生把想法转化为他们思想中的文字，再把思想中的文字转换到纸上。所以看到想象中的文字，不仅能帮助孩子们把想法变成文字，而且能发现拼写错误并改正它们。故判断出换线的词语为“想象”。故选D项。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。通断全文可知，首段说明随着新技术的到来，手写已经成为过去，之后文章中部提到手写的好处。根据最后一段进一步阐明书写的重要根据最后一段“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won't have knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”在我们的计算机时代，有些人认为我们不必教拼写，因为我们有拼写检查，”她说。“但是直到孩子的功能拼写能力达到五年级的水平，他们才知道如何在计算机提供的选项中选择正确的拼写。由此判断出“书写在现代教学中应该占有一席之地”。故选C项。

第三节：阅读表达(每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Months earlier, my wife Lisa had woken up at 4: 45 am, preparing to do exercise. She heard voices coming from the upstairs game room and decided to investigate. She discovered that our older son, Hunter. had been playing the video game Fortnite since he got home from school the previous day. What she found angered both of us.
We were sick and tired of the amount of time Hunter spent playing video games. He was so addicted to video games. Back in the 1980s, instead of playing video games, we kids were crazy about playing baseball and street football, driving hoops (大环圈) outside the house, etc. But times are different now. It becomes apparent that kids of the new generation are entirely different from kids of my generation. My kid and his peers (同龄人) are crazy about electronic products. I work in a summer camp and am responsible for the field sports programme. I often notice many of the campers playing video games on little portable (便携式的) devices.
I began to refer to kids who spent more time playing video games than playing sports as the Nintendo Generation. In an attempt to ensure that our kid did not become a member of the Nintendo Generation, I came up with a programme to help Hunter deal with his bad habit. It was that video-game time in our house would have to be earned, just like money. I set the exchange rate: Each mile run equals 30 minutes of video-game play.
The first couple of days didn’t go well. Instead of choosing to run to win the time of playing games, he decided to boycott my programme and spend time sleeping. But eventually. Hunter came around, and decided he would give running a shot. Now, Hunter is in good health and can run 18 miles. But nine months earlier, he was not in any condition to run five miles.
I hope that running teaches my son to invest his time in worthwhile efforts, to do something hard, but quite meaningful and beneficial and then to enjoy a reward. I never want him to stop challenging himself.
71. What made the author and his wife Lisa angry (no more than 10 words)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
72. What did kids in the 1980s like doing according to the author (no more than 5 words)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
73. How did the author help Hunter deal with his bad habit (no more than 12 words)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
74. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean (no more than 5 words)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
75. How do you find Hunter’s change What lesson can you learn from it (no more than 20 words)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】71. That Hunter stayed up (spent) all night playing video games. / Hunter’s staying up (spending) all night playing video games. / Hunter’s too much gaming time.
72. Going outside to do sports. / Playing sports games outside. / Playing outside the house. / Doing sports/ Playing outdoors.
73. By asking Hunter to earn video-game time by running. /They made a programme for Huntter to earn video-game time by running. / By making a program where Hunter had to earn video-game time through running.
74. Resist my programme. / Refuse to follow my programme/ Reject to participate in my program.
75. It’s very positive / inspiring/ encouraging. We should make proper use of electronic devices and improve ourselves by spending more time on meaningful things.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者通过制定运动计划帮助儿子摆脱电子游戏带来的负面影响。
【71题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中“She discovered that our older son, Hunter. had been playing the video game Fortnite since he got home from school the previous day. What she found angered both of us.”（她发现我们的大儿子，亨特。自从前一天从学校回到家，他就一直在玩电子游戏《堡垒之夜》。她的发现激怒了我们俩。）可知，亨特整晚都在玩电子游戏让作者和他的妻子丽莎感到很生气。故答案为That Hunter stayed up (spent) all night playing video games. / Hunter’s staying up (spending) all night playing video games. / Hunter’s too much gaming time.
【72题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段中“Back in the 1980s, instead of playing video games, we kids were crazy about playing baseball and street football, driving hoops (大环圈) outside the house, etc.”（早在20世纪80年代，我们的孩子们不玩电子游戏，而是疯狂地打棒球、街头足球、在屋外开车打篮球等等。）可知，根据作者的说法，80年代的孩子喜欢去外面做运动。故答案为Going outside to do sports. / Playing sports games outside. / Playing outside the house. / Doing sports/ Playing outdoors.
【73题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段中“In an attempt to ensure that our kid did not become a member of the Nintendo Generation, I came up with a programme to help Hunter deal with his bad habit.It was that video-game time in our house would have to be earned, just like money. l set the exchange rate: Each mile run equals 30 minutes of video-game play.”（为了确保我们的孩子不会成为“任天堂一代”的一员，我想出了一个计划来帮助亨特改掉他的坏习惯。那就是在我们家里玩电子游戏的时间必须要挣来，就像钱一样。我设定汇率：每跑一英里等于玩30分钟的电子游戏。）可知，作者想出了一个计划让亨特通过跑步来赢得打游戏的时间，从而帮助亨特改掉他的坏习惯的。故答案为By asking Hunter to earn video-game time by running. /They made a programme for Huntter to earn video-game time by running. / By making a program where Hunter had to earn video-game time through running.
【74题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据第四段中“The first couple of days didn’t go well. Instead of choosing to run to win the time of playing games…”（最初的几天并不顺利。他没有选择跑步来赢得玩游戏的时间……）由此可知，此处为决定抵制我的计划，花时间睡觉。故可猜测划线部分“boycott my programme”为“抵制我的计划”的意思。故答案为Resist my programme. / Refuse to follow my programme/ Reject to participate in my program.
【75题详解】
考查主观评价。根据第四段中“But eventually. Hunter came around, and decided he would give running a shot. Now, Hunter is in good health and can run 18 miles. But nine months earlier, he was not in any condition to run five miles.”（但最终。亨特回过神来，决定试一试跑步。现在，亨特身体很好，可以跑18英里。但9个月前，他的身体状况还不能跑5英里。）以及最后一段“I hope that running teaches my son to invest his time in worthwhile efforts, to do something hard, but quite meaningful and beneficial and then to enjoy a reward. I never want him to stop challenging himself.”（我希望跑步能教会我的儿子把时间投入到有价值的努力上，去做一些艰苦但很有意义和有益的事情，然后享受回报。我希望他永远不要停止挑战自己。）可知，亨特的变化是是非常积极的。我能从中学到：我们应该正确使用电子设备，通过花更多的时间在有意义的事情上来提高自己。故答案为It’s very positive / inspiring/ encouraging. We should make proper use of electronic devices and improve ourselves by spending more time on meaningful things.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Warm regards,
Li Jin
【答案】Dear Paul,
I was delighted to know the UN declared the Chinese Spring Festival as a UN Floating holiday. It’s great to see more cities in the UK celebrating the festival too. Apart from the customs you mentioned, there are other significant traditions and activities. Families exchange red envelopes filled with money to bring good luck. We also have the lion and dragon dances, which are lively performances believed to scare away evil spirits and bring good fortune.
In recent years, celebrations have evolved in China. Besides traditional activities, people now enjoy watching the CCTV New Year’s Gala, a TV show filled with music, dance, and comedy performances. Additionally, many people travel domestically or internationally during the holiday, exploring new destinations and experiencing different cultures. The Chinese New Year’s global spread is due to China’s increasing influence and the world’s fascination with its rich culture. It promotes cultural understanding and exchange, fostering friendships and connections around the globe.
I hope you can come to my hometown one day to experience it and have a deeper understanding of the Chinese New Year. I will be glad to your guide to enjoy it.
Warm regards,
Li Jin
