2 . How to change the world

There are so many things you can do at home or in your community to make the world a better place. Even the smallest things can lead to bigger changes, so don' t be afraid to get out there and start helping.     1    No matter where you are or whom you meet, give them a warm smile when you’re around them. When you smile, you make the other person feel good and encourage them to smile too.

You’ve probably felt warm when someone says something nice about you, so why not return the favor? Say something that shows your appreciation for how they handle themselves emotionally or treat other people. Make sure you act sincerely when you give your praise so you come across as a truthful person.    2    

It can be really easy to get jealous (妒忌的) of other people when they succeed, but it’s a lot more rewarding to share their excitement. Avoid comparing yourself to other people and thinking of ways you can be better than them.     3    

Even though being kind to someone doesn’t seem like you’re making a big change, your kindness will continue to spread through them. Real kindness involves being friendly and considerate no matter the circumstances.     4    For example, if you see someone struggling to carry groceries , you can offer to help them to their vehicle.

When people litter, the rubbish ends up in the environment and damages the natural wildlife .     5    You may end up picking rubbish up from a beach, cleaning up around highways , or collecting waste from public parks.

A．But do things because you’re actually interested in them.

B．Even a few small kind words can have a huge effect on them.

C．Even flashing a quick smile can brighten someone else’s day.

D．Stay aware of the people around you and look for opportunities to help them.

E．Remember to treat yourself kindly as well so you take good care of your mental health.

F．Instead, really look at what they’ve accomplished and appreciate the work they’ve done.

G．Search online to see if there are clean-up programs in your city and work as a volunteer.

4 . Can People Really Learn to "Speed Read”？

There never seems to be enough time to read these days. With so many books and articles—especially on social media——the ability to read faster could be a life-changer.     1    The problem is that true speed reading without any loss in comprehension isn't supported by the science.

“Speed reading is not actually possible," said Elizabeth Schotter, a scientist at the University of South Florida.    2     You have to first see the word, understand its meaning, relate the word to its context, and then figure out where to point your eyes next.

Some books and classes train people to read whole passages all at once by scanning text in a zigzag（之字形）pattern. These methods suggest that our eyes make wasted movements when looking back and forth over words. But studies find that the limit to reading comprehension is the ability to recognize words.     3    

In recent years, numerous apps have claimed they can boost reading speed. These apps display text just one word at a time, one after another at a certain rate.     4     But again, the eyes sometimes have to go back and reread words to fully grasp text. Research has found that your eyes pick up important information beyond the word in focus, which is simply not possible if you can only read one word at a time.

    5    You probably can't dramatically increase your speed, but research suggests you can get a little faster by improving your vocabulary and simply reading more. Good thing there's plenty to read. Enjoy it.

A．So is there a way to become a faster reader?

B．Is the scientific community doubtful about speed reading?

C．So adjusting eye movements probably won't help you read faster.

D．Most people who claim to be speed-reading are actually skimming.

E．That way, your eyes are forced to focus on the word in front of you.

F．Reading is a complex task that requires cooperation between mental systems.

G．That is why so many classes, books and apps claim they can get you to read faster.

6 . Another year of college entrance examination is coming. You will soon say goodbye to high school to college. Some people say that the university is a melting pot while others say that it is a plastic surgery hospital. It can be seen that the four years have a great impact on a person.     1     Let’s take a look together!

Holding back unpleasant information.

Yesterday you had a bad experience, but you didn’t tell anyone about it. Your WeChat Moments only document the positive parts of your life.    2     You wouldn’t want them to worry about you!

Using social media to its full potential.

You’ve lost something, or need some information, like a teacher’s phone number or a recommendation for a nice restaurant. How better to find what you seek than using social media?     3    

Working together in a group.

    4     But after entering the college, you’ll find group work is much more popular. Cooperation and communication are essential. Never be a black sheep!

    5    

The further you advance through college, the fuller your 10 do list becomes. Studying, internships (实习), preparing for postgraduate entrance exams. It all piles up and you have to learn to deal with it, whether you like it or not! After college, all of you must learn how to integrate into society. Without the shelter of our teachers and parents, you must handle all the challenges by yourselves, which makes college the perfect time to make mistakes and learn good habits.

7 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

A simple badge (徽章) is playing an important role in helping lost seniors return home. By scanning a QR code on a plastic badge, anyone with a smartphone can reach the person’s emergency contact     1     (immediate). “It’s efficient and     2     (save) effort,” said Li Caoliang, head of the Lei Feng police station in Fushun, Liaoning province.

The idea came to Li and his     3     (colleague) four years ago when dealing with more than 200 lost seniors in a year. Some of the old people got lost because they had illnesses such as memory     4     (lose) or Alzheimer’s. They couldn’t tell their identity, address or phone number. Sometimes, the officers had to spend hours     5     (try) to figure out who to call from vague descriptions by the lost seniors. In some cases, the lost seniors had to stay overnight at the station before their families     6     (contact). The number of lost seniors has dropped to around 30 a year since     7     the police developed came into use.

China has 264 million old people, accounting     8     18.7 percent of its population according to its seventh population census     9     (conduct) last year. Wang Jiajuan,     10     has long focused on improving public services for an aging society, says the innovative QR code ID helps guarantee the travel safety of seniors.

8 . 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。

It was a January afternoon. My wife, Savitri and I sat on the Sahyadri Express. As the train pulled out of the station, we could barely hide our excitement. We were finally on the way to a honeymoon to Matheran! This was the first time we had enough savings to go on a trip together.

The train stopped at Neral, where we were forced out of our reverie (白日梦). As we stepped out and started making inquiries, we realized it was unlikely that we would find a train to take us to the misty hill station we had been dreaming of for months. The afternoon gradually settled into a pink dusk as we sat in a corner at the station, waiting for news of the train services as the cold winter breeze rattled (使紧张)our bones. We unwrapped some biscuits when a little girl, no more than five or six, went past us, screaming, “But I want food! I am hungry!”

Savitri's eyes turned to the girl’s family. Smiling, she called out-her name was Mehrunisa，we overheard-and asked her to seek her parent’s permission to accept biscuits from us. Left with no option, her family accepted, And we began chatting.

After several hours, the train finally arrived. We entered alongside. As the short uphill journey progressed, Savitri and I softly discussed our trouble. It seemed unlikely that our reservation at Ragdi Hotel would still be held. As the train arrived and we rose to bid the family goodbye, Mehrunisa’s father, Viraaz, suggested that he would accompany us to make sure that we had a place to spend the night. He had overheard our anxious exchange.

His family headed to their guesthouse and Viraaz came with us to look for a hotel. To no one’s surprise, Ragdi Hotel was packed with people. The manager offered assistance by placing a few beds in the coal storage room but the cold made it uninhabitable. A gradual dread(恐惧)started to appear in my mind.

注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Sensing our helplessness, Viraaz offered to put us up in their accommodation for the night.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Our friendship has since continued for decades.
