21、   The story began with a young mother who had three sons. Unfortunately, the youngest son developed slow thinking skills, not having the intelligence of his brothers.

With double duty as the mother of the household, she was exhausted, so that the youngest was often the garget of anger and annoyance. Bad words, such as “you little fool” and the like, served as a daily meal for the youngest.

The words and curses he got from the mother and ridicule from friends convinced him that he was distressing and embarrassing his family. Every morning he woke up with his own face staring from the mirror reflection, he started to say quietly and sadly, “The fool is going to school.”

As adult citizens, there was compulsory military service which should be lived. Thus, the youngest son also signed up and started to follow the various tests: a medical, physical ability test and other tests. On the day of the announcement, he was called into the board of examiners.

In his mind, he convinced himself that he was the fool and couldn’t pass the tests this time as he entered the room with his head down. It was not expected at all. The tests turned out to have the highest praise from the board of examiners.

“Congratulations, young man! Your test results are incredible! You are really a great and talented young man. ”Words from the board of examiners became the discovery of a new side of himself that was not known in advance. Voice kept echoing in his mind, such as “I, the great man, am in the shower”, “the great man washes his face”, “The talented young man again brushes his teeth” and so on. Confidence and improved self-image came beyond usual.

20 years later, the youngest established himself as a successful businessman who was admired and respected, and received many awards.

The mindset and belief are the power behind the success that is within us. Whatever we think and believe in or mind continuously, it will eventually materialize in reality. That’s the universally applicable law.

【1】Why was the youngest often scolded by his mother?

A.He was not as clever as his brother.

B.He considered himself to be a fool.

C.He didn’t behave himself at school.

D.He didn’t cook meals for his mother.

【2】From the story we know that the young mother is ____.

A.selfish and lazy B.gentle and caring

C.ill-tempered and impatient D.kind-hearted and diligent

【3】What happened to the youngest son later on?

A.He received aid from others.

B.He became an admirable psychologist.

C.He became confident and successful.

D.He developed strange mental diseases.

【4】From this passage, the author mainly tells us that____.

A.Military service can change a person completely.

B.Mothers should treat every child equally.

C.Even a fool can become a successful businessman.

D.Think big and you will get big results.

22、Bread making is a survival skill. With very few simple things—such as flour, salt and yeast—you can bake a fresh loaf of bread for your family, neighbors or coworkers. Baking is not just a useful survival skill. 【1】 In fact, baking and cooking have been used to treat people with mental health issues.

Julie Ohana, a social worker, offers what she calls culinary therapy to her patients in New York City to help them overcome many kinds of issues. 【2】

Baking requires mindfulness.

When you’re in the kitchen, it really requires a certain level of mindfulness, of being present in the moment. And baking really requires step-by-step, following a recipe, being more precise. Kneading the dough (揉面团) or rolling something out, you really get the full benefit of being present in the moment and being able to relax and put aside all the other thoughts and just focus on the here-and-now.

Baking is a labor of love.

Baking is a process filled with love. 【3】 When you bake, you go through this whole process and it really is a labor of love and you end up with this finished product that—not only is it tangible—but it’s edible and it’s delicious.

【4】

Often our food experiences are tied to family memories and stories. We remember meals our grandmothers made. We teach our children important recipes for family favorites.

Baking is a win-win.

Giving delicious, baked goods makes the giver feel as good as the receiver. To pass the baked goods on to someone else certainly can make the day for the person receiving it. 【5】

A．Baking is rewarding.

B．Baking is emotional.

C．It not only makes you feel good, it produces something you can touch and eat!

D．But it’s also just as powerful for the person who’s giving them.

E．It can make you feel better at stressful times.

F．She explains that culinary therapy works on many levels.

G．And the receiver can benefit a lot from baking.

23、Optimism is a psychological quality characterized as the general expectation that good things will happen, or the belief that the future will be favorable because one can control important outcomes. “Most research on exceptional longevity investigated biomedical factors associated with survival, but recent work suggests non-biological factors are also important,” said lead author Dr. Lewina Lee, a clinical research psychologist at Boston University School of Medicine. “Thus, we tested whether higher optimism was associated with longer life span and greater likelihood of exceptional longevity.”

In the study, Dr. Lee and co-authors analyzed data from 69,744 women and 1,429 men. The women’s age range was 58-86 years when they completed an optimism assessment in 2004, and their mortality (死亡率) status was tracked through 2014. The men’s age range was 41-90 years when they completed an optimism assessment in 1986, and their mortality status was tracked through 2016.

When individuals were compared based on their initial levels of optimism, the researchers found that the most optimistic men and women demonstrated, on average, an 11% to 15% longer lifespan, and had 50-70% greater chances of reaching 85 years old compared to the least optimistic groups. The results were maintained after accounting for age, educational attainment, chronic diseases, depression and also health behaviors, such as alcohol use, exercise, diet and primary care visits.

It is unclear how exactly optimism helps people attain longer life. Researchers suggest that more optimistic people may be able to control emotions and behavior as well as bounce back from stressors and difficulties more effectively. They also consider that more optimistic people tend to have healthier habits, such as being more likely to engage in more exercise and less likely to smoke, which could extend lifespan.

Research on the reason why optimism matters so much remains to be done, but the link between optimism and health is becoming more evident. “We hope that our findings will inspire further research on involvement to enhance positive health assets that may improve the public’s health with aging,” Dr. Lee said.

【1】Different from most research on longevity, Dr. Lee’s research focuses on people’s ________.

A．health behaviors

B．medical care

C．academic background

D．mental condition

【2】What does the underlined phrase “bounce back from” in paragraph 4 mean?

A．Put up with.

B．Get along with.

C．Recover from.

D．Benefit from.

【3】What can we learn about the study led by Dr. Lee?

A．It exposes the secrets of happiness in old age.

B．It offers the aged beneficial advice for better health.

C．It further clarifies the influence of optimism on health.

D．It clearly explains why optimistic people enjoy longer life.

26、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。

When I was in middle school, I thought there were only two options—I could somehow be cool, or I could somehow be invisible. And I have to say,I was doing pretty well at option two. Until third period on the first day, when a teacher had us fill out a questionnaire with “get to know you” questions. I assumed hat she would be reading them privately, so I felt safe to share from the

perspective of a real me.

The teacher collected the sheets，shuffled(搅乱)them,and redistributed them to the class. We went one by one.We‘d read the student's name and then our three favorite answers.

My sheet end up in the hands of a kid who was one of the coolest and meanest.What is “favorite answer”of mine were the three worst ones to be read out loud .The first question was “What's your favorite movie?"The other kids wrote Scream and Universal Soldier. He read my answer,Beauty and the Beast. A laugh erupted from the room,and my cheeks burning because I knew we were just getting started.

The next question he read was"Where would you like to travel?” The others had said “Australia,”“Japan.”I wrote “Wherever a book takes me.” The laughter this time had an explosive quality to it. The kids were high-fiving.

The final question was “What do you like to do on the weekends?” The other kids wrote“Hang out with friends" and “go to the mall.”I wrote “perform with Clowns." Those who weren't laughing at me were sort of staring at me in disgust. I felt about an inch tall.
