26、A few weeks ago, my teenage daughter Lisa failed a test. The grade might stop her from qualifying for the next class she wants to take. There were tears and some complaints for a few minutes. Then I saw something interesting. She made a joke, expressed gratitude that she didn’t have bigger problems, and finally made a plan on how to make improvements.

She was never the same as she was one year ago. That one was unwilling to take responsibility. That one stayed in anger and blamed others. We expect our kids to learn and grow. We hope for it. However, most of us grow through adversity (逆境), even trauma (精神创伤). It happened to Lisa last year repeatedly. She searched for ways to get her bearings and equip herself when everything around her was changing by the day. Psychologists call it post-traumatic growth.

Trauma refers to an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, attack, natural disaster, or other life-changing happenings. The growth after trauma doesn’t mean we get through challenges uninjured. It’s been a scary and painful time, for everyone, in one way or another. We may experience disbelief, depression, and even denial. As time moves on, people who have experienced trauma may have headaches or other physical symptoms, emotional ups and downs, and even relationship problems. Trauma does leave its irremovable marks.

However, in one study, researchers surveyed nearly 385 people who experienced financial difficulty during the pandemic. 88 percent of the people surveyed say they also have experienced some positive outcomes—They now have stronger family relationships and a greater appreciation of life.

【1】What is Lisa like now when she fails?

A．She tries to cover it.

B．She is positive and adult.

C．She acts unconcerned.

D．She wants to make excuses.

【2】What does the author intend to tell us through Lisa’s experience?

A．There is no sweet without sweat.

B．Experience is the father of wisdom.

C．Difficult situations are likely to make one stronger.

D．Responsibility is often more important than ability.

【3】How does the author prove his view?

A．By analyzing existing data.

B．By quoting a psychologist.

C．By contrasting a person’s constant changes.

D．By giving examples together with study results.

【4】Which of the following may the author agree with about post-traumatic growth?

A．It usually comes at a high price.

B．It produces little negative feelings.

C．It is one of the fastest ways to make improvements.

D．It is growth that does both good and harm.

The house was wonderful. Kyle and his friends always talked about going there. Kyle looked at his watch and thought about how much fun he could have with his friends in the country house.

When she saw her big brother rushing to the gate of the school, Rita smiled. She ran to him and gave him a big hug. Kyle realized that he had done the right thing.

31、Directions：Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Like AIDS, flu is caused by a virus, a tiny packet of genes in a protein coat so simple that most biologists don’t 【1】 viruses truly “alive” until they invade（入侵）a host cell. Then they hijack the cell and use its energy to 【2】 out 100,000 to 1 million copies of themselves in just 10 hours. Eventually they become so great in number that they 【3】 the cell from within, flooding out to further infect the body. They are spread from respiratory（呼吸的）passages, through the cough and sneeze droplets on doorknobs, desktops, coat sleeves and food tables.

The cause of flu was unknown for many years—the virus wasn’t isolated until 1933. But now we know what makes flu such an annual irritant, and so 【4】 deadly, is that like HIV that causes AIDS, it is moving 【5】. Made of RNA instead of the more stable DNA, it changes like a movie monster, making vaccinations（疫苗接种）useless in a year or so.

One thing we know about the flu is that we can’t predict it. In part that’s because occasionally the flu will change completely in what is called a “shift” and 【6】 humans by such a surprise that a pandemic（流行疾病）breaks out. An estimated three to six shifts occurred in the 18th century, four in the 19th, and three in the 20th, the 1918 pandemic, the 1957 Asian flu and the 1968 Hong Kong flue. Because it can take six to nine months to make enough of an effective vaccine, a deadly shift that 【7】 around the world is what gives health authorities nightmares.

But there is a global network to try to stop such a pandemic in its tracks. More than 80 countries and 121 U.S. cities belong to a reporting system to 【8】 flu.

And now, doctors know what causes flu. They have decades of experience with vaccines to fight it, and they even have anti-viral drugs, though those are expensive and of limited 【9】.

32、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 Great Monday

Monday started out great. I woke up on time, ate breakfast and did some last minute studying for my math test that day. I was confident that I would get a high mark. I left my house, and minutes later, I was sitting with my friends on the school bus. We were busy talking about how we spent our weekend. At one stop, a boy named Ryan got on hurriedly. He tripped(绊倒) over someone’s foot and THUMP! He fell flat onto the floor.

Every one of us on the bus looked on and laughed crazily. Ryan picked himself up, dusted his jacket and made his way to an empty seat. He tried to laugh with us, but his face was burning with embarrassment. The rest of the morning flew by. I did well in my math test. It wasn’t long before the lunch bell rang. I met my friends from the cheerleading team in the dining hall.

When we finished eating, we headed out to the courtyard to practice a cheer we would do at that night’s football game. After much practice, we finally managed to do the cheer perfectly. We decided to practice it again one last time. Again, just like the rest of my day so far, the cheer was going great. I raised my leg for one last toe touch. RIIPPP! I felt my jeans was torn down in the middle of my backside.

I froze(僵住了). I had no idea what to do but stand still. Then I heard people burst out laughing and I saw them pointing at my broken jeans. Trying to cover myself with my hands, I tried to laugh too, but I felt tears began to well up in my eyes.

注意：1. 续写的词数应为150左右；
