21、From the age of 6, Samirah Horton was bullied (欺凌) by her classmates for the things that made her different — her size and her sharp voice. Rather than giving up, Horton decided to pick up a microphone and make sure other children knew they weren’t alone. “I didn’t want other kids to go through that experience,” says Horton, “especially at a very young age.” Now, alongside attending eighth grade classes, she’s also building an anti-bullying platform to reach students across the country.

For as long as Horton remembers, she's felt a special connection to music. She remembers her mother always having the radio on, and her father teaching her how to deejay (主持) . Music gives her unlimited power to do the duty. “It’s music that fuels my mission, allowing me to spread this important message,”she says. Now as the Kid DJ for her hometown team, you can hear anything from the hip-hop classics to songs of her own, including the anti-bullying song “No You Won’t Bully Me”.

Her message has reached beyond the DJ set. At 8. Horton turned one of her songs into a 26-page picture book, which has reached thousands of people across America. In the book, she references the over 160,000 students who miss school daily for fear of being bullied.

Horton isn’t sure exactly what the future holds, but for now, she’s positive about leading her school’s student government. “I don’t know exactly what I’ll be doing, but I know I’ll be making a positive influence on the world,” she says. She’s already on her way, but her biggest achievement in her own eyes is persuading others not to doubt themselves along the way. “Don’t care what anybody tells you,” she says. “You are never too young to make a change.”

【1】Why was Horton bullied?

A．Because of her age.

B．Because of her weight.

C．Because of her grades.

D．Because of her hobby.

【2】What does the underlined word “mission” in paragraph 2 mean?

C．Skill.

D．Curiosity.

【3】What can we learn from Horton’s story?

A．Fear invites danger.

B．No voice is too small.

C．Success is peace of mind.

D．Imperfections are beauty.

【4】What might be the best title for the passage?

A．A Picture-Book Writer

B．A Hip-Hop Music Lover

C．An Environmental Activist

D．An Anti-Bullying Advocate

22、   Do you ever feel like you read too slowly? Is it hard to finish a book because you can’t focus? 【1】Whatever the case may be, if you want to be a high-efficient reader, you’ll need to learn how to focus and stick with the material. Here is my advice.

【2】 If you have trouble sitting still and concentrating on what you’re reading, make notes or write down a brief outline. Writing things down can be especially helpful if you find yourself reading the same few sentences over and over again without being able to continue. 【3】 You can also move your fingers along with the text to help keep your place in the book and guide you along.

Take short effective breaks. 【4】. Move around, get a snack, watch a little television or whatever helps you mentally pause. Set a time limit in advance and limit the number of rest breaks you take during a given period of time. Doing something physical can re-energize you and make it easier to return to reading.

Practice concentrating on the reading materials. In order to truly focus on concentrating, you need to do it a little every day. Find a time of day that works best for you to read and try to read a little each day at that time. Soon, it will become a habit. After a few days, you should notice some small improvements in your reading. Remember, don’t try to memorize every single detail when you’re reading. 【5】

A．Engage with what you’re reading.

B．Write down any questions you may come across.

C．Adjust your speed based on the information you’re reading.

D．That is too challenging, which will make it difficult to continue.

E．This is your chance to think about something other than what you’re reading.

F．Or maybe you’d like to get the important information faster while also speed reading.

G．Meanwhile, reading aloud or whispering contributes to your greater attention to your book.

24、Imagine you bought a new shirt and did not intend to buy a new jacket,however,you suppose that the new shirt makes the old jacket look worn. You weaken and buy a new jacket, new trousers,even new shoes.Before you realize it,you have a whole new wardrobe.And maybe an empty bank account.

This is called the Diderot Effect. Denis Diderot,a well-known French philosopher,was the co-founder and writer of Encyclopedia. However，he was too badly off to afford a dowry(嫁妆)for his daughter. His only valuable possessions were books. Hearing of Diderot’s financial troubles,Catherine the Great,the Empress of Russia, offered to buy his library at a high price. Shortly after this lucky sale，Diderot acquired a new dressing gown(长袍)which had a huge effect on his life. As he wrote in the article in 1769, the new dressing gown made his other belongings seem old and unattractive. Thus, he began replacing them.

According to many social scientists,it resulted from a psychological need for our possessions to go together and to reflect our self-image. In 1988, anthropologist Grant McCracken coined the term “the Diderot Effect” to describe this need and its influence on consumerism.

Marketers utilize this need by displaying products in what McCracken calls Diderot Unities. An example is the Swedish furniture company IKEA, whose marketing uses two kinds of Diderot Unities in its shops, website and catalogue. One is dividing items like lamps and rugs into various furniture “families”. The other is displaying items in fully furnished rooms. Shops count on all of these to create the Diderot Effect, making the buyer want the entire package.

We may occasionally give in to the Diderot Effect,but knowing it exists can help us resist it so we don’t regret our purchases. Before buying something, ask yourself, is it necessary? Then, buy items that match what you already have. And remind yourself that a new chair won’t transform your bedroom into a showroom!

【1】What can we infer about Denis Diderot from paragraph 2?

A．His belongings were out of style.

B．He showed interest in nothing but books.

C．He kept on buying new items after the lucky sale.

D．His new dressing gown landed him in financial troubles.

【2】Why are people always buying things they don’t actually need?

A．To improve their social status.

B．To show off their beauty and elegance.

C．To make their belongings better matched.

D．To cater for the needs of family members.

【3】What does the underlined word “utilize” mean in paragraph 4?

A．Get rid of.

B．Ignore.

C．Affect.

D．Take advantage of.

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Keep an eye on your bank account

B．Embrace Minimalism: less is more

C．The Diderot Effect: a two-edged sword

D．Have you ever given in to the Diderot Effect?

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。

A long time ago, there was a country where the people would change a king every year. The person who would become the king had to sign a contract that he would be sent to an island after one year.

One king finished his term and it was time for him to go to the island. The people dressed him up in expensive clothes and put him on an elephant and took him around the cities to say goodbye to all the people. This was the moment of sadness for all the kings who ruled for one year. Then the people took the king in a boat to the remote island and left him there.

On their way back, the people discovered a ship that had sunk just recently and a young man who survived by holding on to a floating piece of wood. As they needed a new king, they picked up the young man and took him to their country. They requested him to be a king and told him about all the rules and regulations. At first, he refused but later he agreed to be a king.

After three days of being a king, he asked the ministers if they could show him the island where all the other kings were sent. They agreed and took him to the island. The island was covered with thick jungles and sounds of dangerous animals were heard coming out of them. The king discovered the dead bodies of all the past kings. It was clear that as soon as they were left in the island, the animals came and killed them.

On returning to his country, the young king asked the people to provide him with 100 strong workers. He took them to the island and told them to remove all the deadly animals and to cut down some trees. He often visited the island to see how the work was progressing.

After a month, the whole island was cleaned out. The king then told the workers to plant gardens and raise useful animals like chickens, ducks, birds, goats and cows.

注意：
