My daughter Julianna told me that she got the job she had applied for. She had just turned 14 and decided to spend this summer vacation on work. The things she wants are both long-term and immediate. She wants to freely buy things from Forever21 and save money for the famous college she’s decided to get into.Several weeks before her birthday, Julianna asked me whether I’d allow her to work. Some of her friends’parents wouldn’t let their kids work, wanting them to focus on their studies and enjoy the last childhood freedom for as long as possible. I understood those parents. But I wanted her to spend less time on her electronic devices in her room and more time in the outside world.The day after her birthday, Julianna immediately applied to an amusement park, which hires teens during busy summer months. I’d never seen Julianna so active. The day before the interview, we went over possible questions, including why she wanted to work at the amusement park, its most famous attraction, and what her previous work and volunteering experiences were. She seldom talked about anything else until the interview was over.I never worked as a young teen. My husband, though, worked as a young teen at an amusement park. He shared some funny stories about his time working there. More importantly, the work contributed to his strong work ethic (道德准则) today. Studies also show that work can contribute to healthy development and that teens who work at times are more likely to attend four-year colleges and get degrees quickly.Julianna used to be so careful about new experiences, but now she is doing something new. I realize it’s time to put aside my doubts and worries and believe she can learn the skills she needs to take care of herself.26. What was the writer’s expectation of her daughter?A. She could do better in her studies.B. She could pay much attention to her health.C. She could actively experience the real world.D She could spend her free time in a relaxing way.27. What can we infer about Julianna from Paragraph 3?A. She took the interview very seriously.B. She wanted to improve the amusement park.C. She wished to work together with her mom.D. She had great confidence in getting the job.28. What does the writer stress by referring to her husband’s experience and the studies?A. The reason for her husband’s success.B.

How my daughter developed a new hobbyB. How I accepted my daughter’s journey of growthC. How I guided my daughter through her life troublesD. How my daughter achieved freedom and independence(B)William Butler Yeats, was an Irish poet and dramatist and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. He was born in Dublin on June 13,1865, His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited excellent taste in art from his family—both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments however were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.Yeats is considered one of the few writers whose greatest works were completed after being awarded the Nobel Prize, which he won in 1923. He continued writing almost to the end of his life, producing his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, as there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between these ages. Such works include The Tower (1928) and The Winding Stair and Other Poems (1929).After suffering from a variety of illnesses for several years Yeats died in Menton, 1939. The last poem he wrote was the The Black Tower. After Yeats’s death, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the falling liners:Earth, receive an honoured guest:William Yeats is laid to rest.Let the Irish vessel (船) lieEmptied of its poetry.30. What can you learn about Yeats’s family according to Paragraph 1?A. It was a happy family.B. It was shocked by Yeats’s choice.C. It was a typically wealthy family.D. It had an artistic atmosphere.31. What does the underlined word “inherited” (in paragraph 1) probably mean?A. failed toB. succeeded toC. gave upD. worried about32. In what order did the following happen in Yeats’s life?a. He won a Nobel Prize of Literature.b He founded an Irish national theatre.c. He was dead in Menton.d. The Winding Stair was published.e. He wrote The Black Tower.A. b→a→e→d→cB. b→a→d→e→cC. a→b→d→c→eD. a→b→c→d→e33. What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Auden’s lines?A. Happiness.B. Sympathy.C. Emptiness.D. Admiration.(C)Some of the benefits of social media are unquestionable, such as the abilities to quickly connect with long-lost friends and keep in touch with family members from afar. However, according to a study conducted by the photo-sharing app Flashgap, millennials (千禧一代) are so addicted to social media that their real-time relationships are affected. The results have been confirmed by later studies.The study found that 87% of millennials are so busy surfing the Internet that they have completely missed out on face-to-face conversations. 54% worry that they will be left out if they don’t check theInternet quite often. And 76% of females check their social media accounts at least 10 times while socializing with their friends.A study conducted this year shows that 42% of those who use social media admit to feeling jealous (妒忌的) when their blog posts don’t receive as many “likes” as their friends’. Posts and reactions to them can also make people feel less confident. Earlier this year, a number of millennials came together and discussed the influence of social media on their lives. Tedi Gilmartin, one of them, reported feeling really sad about her life because she saw her friends travelling and thought she should be doing that too.But for all the negative effects on people’s emotional well-being and relationships, there are some benefits. Gesell, for one, found that visiting social media sites inspired him to lose weight.All in all, different people have different views about social media. Some think they’re able to communicate with more people now than ever. Others think even with emojis, posts cannot convey some subtle (微妙的) ge stural clues that can be found in face-to-face conversations. These misunderstandings can lead to negative reactions and even the end of some relationships. There is obviously a healthy balance, but as social media takes over more and more of our lives, its more negative effects may appear.34. Why does the writer mention Flashgap at the beginning of the passage?A. To sell a kind of social software.B. To prove the popularity of social media.C. To stress the importance of social media.D. To present social media’s negative effects.35. What does the writer want to show by the numbers in Paragraph 2?A. Females like surfing the Internet more than males.B. Social media is making millennials less social.C. Millennials keep track of news updates every day.D. Chatting online is more convenient than chatting face to face.36. What effect of social media is stressed in Paragraph 3?A. Leading to negative emotions and mind.B. Enabling people to forget upsetting things.C. Recording interesting stories during journeys.D. Causing misunderstandings between friends.37. What’s the writer’s attitude towards social media?A. Critical.B. Positive.C. Worried.D. Uncertain.(D)Being stuck at home doesn’t mean that learning stops. In fact, it’s just the opposite.
