26、People are taught how to speak, but good sentence structure and a wide range of vocabulary words won’t always lead to being understood or understanding others.【1】

The good news is that it’s never too late to learn how to communicate more effectively. The first step is to realize you’ re having communication issues.【2】The following is a list of the top three signs that you need to learn healthier communication skills.

You have the same fights over and over.

Your fights are about the same topic again and again. If this is happening, it means you don’t yet have the skills to resolve conflicts.【3】The fight may end, but it’s only a matter of time before you argue about the same thing again. When you learn how to resolve conflicts, issues don’t pile up or become baggage that weighs down your relationship.

【4】

You don’t want to fight so you try not to bring up subjects that lead only to pain and disconnection. The problem is that avoiding them leads to pain and disconnection anyway. Unless you learn how to have hard conversations productively, you will get more and more disconnected until your relationship is in danger of ending.

You regularly feel misunderstood or unheard.

No matter how hard you try, you don’t feel understood. Perhaps your partner has expressed the same feeling.Over time the disconnected feeling does damage to your relationship. It’s important to learn how to communicate in a better way, so that both you and the other person feel heard and understood.【5】To be heard, your partner will need to learn how to listen. For you, to be able to hear your partner, you will need to do the same.

A．You avoid discussing certain topics.

B．You argue with your partners about some issues.

C．If you can’t resolve issues, they will continue to show up.

D．This requires more than just speaking to your partner or vice versa.

E．Then, you can learn how to communicate in a more productive way.

F．If you leave conflicts unsettled, you will feel disconnected and lonely.

G．Effective communication requires much more than being able to speak.

27、Signs of an Eating Disorder

About 30 million Americans live with an eating disorder. Some symptoms of an eating disorder may be more visible to the eyes. 【1】 It’s important to know the symptoms in those who might be at risk of an eating disorder.

Firstly, they are constantly talking about dieting. 【2】 Look at any lifestyle magazine or website, and you will likely find dieting tips and advice. However, being trapped in that discussion is a different story. If someone you love is constantly talking about food or their dieting habits, it might be a sign of concerns.

Secondly, their fitness or eating habits are constantly out of the ordinary. Changes in mood or behaviors surrounding food or exercise can be signs of concern. This could mean a switch in activity level like over-exercising, too often counting calories, frequently visiting the bathroom after eating, fasting (禁食) or eating too much. 【3】.

Thirdly, avoiding interactions such as birthday parties or going out to dinner with friends is a significant danger signal. People living with the condition have an intense focus on food or body image. 【4】 They will keep away from situations — likely ones that once brought them joy — where that determination might be tested.

The best way to support someone who may be experiencing an eating disorder is by talking with them, but when and how you do it matters. 【5】 Approach them with love and compassion (同情), and let them know that you care about them and that you notice there is something they may be struggling with.

A．Yet many others are often hidden in plain sight.

B．This also might come with noticeable weight loss or gain.

C．They are constantly turning down food-centric social gathering.

D．Mood changes associated with eating may also be a danger signal.

E．The discussion around changing eating habits is incredibly common.

F．It should be away from the normal routine and outside of a mealtime.

G．Eating disorders are a group of conditions marked by an unhealthy relationship with food.

28、第二部分：阅读理解(共15小题：

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

The ability to do several things at once has become one of the great measures of self-worth for 21-century Americans. It is called multitasking, and it takes many forms. As one example, why go out to lunch when you can eat at your desk, talk to a client on the phone, scroll through your e-mail, and scan a memo simultaneously? And why simply work out on treadmill (单调的工作) when you could be watching television and talking on a portable phone at the same time? What a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment --- three activities for the time commitment of one! Ah, such efficiency. No wonder those who turn “to do” lists into a time-management art form tend to boast (自夸): “Look, me, how many things I can accomplish at once. If I’m this busy, I must be important.”

Yet last week the New York Assembly struck a blow against multitasking, at least behind the wheel, when it approved a bill banning drivers in the state from using handheld cellular phones. Too dangerous, the assembly said, citing research showing that drivers are four times more likely to have a collision when they are talking on a cellphone.

No one can argue against using time effectively. But accompanying the supposed gains are losses. Consider the woman out for an early-morning walk in a suburban neighborhood. She strides briskly, head down, cellphone clamped to her ear, chattering (喋喋不休) away, oblivious of the birds and flowers and glorious sunshine. Did the walk have any value?

More than a decade ago, long before multi-tasking became a word in everyday use, a retired professor of theology(神学) in Indiana with whom I corresponded (通信) made a case for what might be called uni-tasking — the old-fashioned practice of doing one thing at a time.

Offering the simplest example, he said, “When you wash the dishes, wash the dishes.” Good advice, I’ve found, whatever the task.

Perhaps, too, the ban on phoning-on-the-road will even spark a move away from other forms of dual activity. Who can tell? It could mark the first step in a welcome reconsideration of what really constitutes productivity and accomplishment.

【1】The author thinks that multitasking has become one of the great measures of self-worth because ________.

A.it helps people to use time effectively

B.it makes people feel they are important

C.it means the ability to do several things at once

D.people worship speed and desire

【2】The bill approved by the New York Assembly is mentioned in the second paragraph in order to ________.

A.demonstrate the danger of multitasking

B.show the high efficiency of multitasking

C.introduce the legislation system in America

D.argue against using time effectively

【3】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “oblivious” in the third paragraph?

A.serious B.absorbed deeply  

C.not noticing D.forgetting

【4】We learn from the passage that uni-tasking is ________.

A.the new fashion for 21-century Americans

B.accepted by most residents in Indiana

C.created by a retired professor of theology

D.the traditional act of doing one thing at once

【5】In the eyes of the author, multi-tasking ________.

A.could not be avoided in this fast-changing age

B.should be taken the place of by uni-tasking

C.robs people of time to focus and reflect

D.should not become a word in everyday use

29、As we know, many teen celebrities(名人) feel and think that having a slimmer figure can do great good to them. But, does size really matter? Are teenage fans trying hard to become like their celebrity idols(偶像)? Do celebrities really have the power to influence people, especially teenagers?

For the longest time, many parents blame teen idols for influencing the way their kids act. Have you noticed how teens idolize the celebrities these days? Even, their personal affairs are being followed by kids these days. Take for example the case of Lindsay Lohan of Mary Kate Ashley. They are definitely famous teen stars. But, since they are trying to project an image to satisfy a lot of people in show business, their health and body suffer. Many kids are aware of this problem. But they are easily influenced by these celebrities to exercise and eat less.

It is a fact that the media, and especially famous teen celebrities, can influence people powerfully. But teenagers are easily influenced because teenage years are the period when our personality and identity developments take place. Teens watching TV shows and reading magazines are easily pulled into the dieting and harmful eating habits because the media have some ways to pull these acts. They use thin models and celebrities to endorse(做广告宣传) products or to star in an up-and-coming shows or movies. With fierce competition, celebrities are forced to eat less and do extreme exercise routines to get the roles or offers that come their way.

Living in today’s time and generation is a bit disturbing to a lot of parents. Media, especially as well as the celebrities, have a very powerful influence to drive teenagers to good or bad. It’s good that we can control ourselves to avoid bad things from happening. If not, parents should really be aware and guide their teens to determine what’s in and what’s out.

【1】 From the passage we can find Lindsay Lohan .

A. doesn’t get any exercise

B. lives a rich and happy life

C. lives an unhealthy lifestyle

D. sets a good example for teenagers

【2】 According to the writer, why are teenagers easily influenced by some TV shows?

A. They are tired of school.

B. Their celebrity idols appear in many TV shows.

C. They have nothing to do in their spare time.

D. They’re in their development period.

【3】Many celebrities have to be on diet ______.

A. to keep a slim size

B. to survive under pressure

C. to keep healthy to face competition

D. to satisfy their teenage fans

【4】 What’s the title of the passage?

A. Parents’ responsibilities.

B. Bad influences of celebrities.

C. Advice on self-control.

D. Media’s bad influences.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行第二自然段续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

Andy, a 15-year-old boy, and his mother Emily didn’t have much in life, living daily with just enough to eat three meals and pay the bills. Without his mother knowing, Andy had been saving up his pocket money for months to buy her a birthday present. He had collected a total of $25.

As a cleaner at a nearby park, Emily never took a bus, choosing to walk to and from work to save money. One day, Andy noticed that her mother came home wet to the skin. She told him her umbrella broke because of the strong wind and she wanted to get home in time to have dinner with him.

The following day, his mother woke up with a fever. “Mom, I’m sure you have to stay in bed today” Andy told her. “I’ll look after you. Here is your medicine,” he said, handing her a glass of water. Then, Andy left the house and walked towards the nearby supermarket to buy vegetables with which to cook some so up for his mother.

It occurred to him that his mother’s birthday was in a couple of days, so he decided to get his mother an umbrella first and spend the rest of his money on food.

“What is your strongest umbrella here, sir?” he asked the shop assistant. “I am looking for one that won’t break easily.” The man showed Andy a variety of umbrellas. Andy believed the purple one would be the best choice, his mother’s favorite color. It was $22. Andy almost jumped with joy! The boy was happy that he managed to lend his mom a hand by finding her something she really needed. Also, he even had some money to spare!

Stepping out of the shop with the gift and vegetables in his shopping bag, Andy realized it was starting to rain. He was running to a nearby bus stop to seek shelter with other people when he noticed an old lady walking slowly and struggling for a balance. It was pouring down. Without hesitation, he took the umbrella out of his bag and ran over.

Paragraph 1:

The old lady looked up and realized an umbrella was sheltering her from the rain. She cast him an appreciative look with a beam of delight.” Thank you. And by the way, it’s wise to get an umbrella before the rain started pouring,” she said. Andy shook his head, telling her that his mom’s umbrella was broken, and he wanted to get her a new one she could use for years.” I didn’t expect that. But it must be very nice to have a caring boy like you,” she replied, helping Andy to wipe off the raindrops on the umbrella. They exchanged a knowing look and waved goodbye after the rain stopped.
