1 . As a child grows up, you may wonder how you can teach him to become a respectful adult.

    1     A child who learns to respect not only learns to receive respect from others in kind, but also learns to respect himself.

Show him respect.

This is the best way to teach your child how to respect others. Listen to your child attentively and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication.

    2    

The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.

Agree to disagree.

    3     Explain your decision so that he will understand you and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn’t necessarily mean rudeness.

Control your anger.

When a situation arises, stay calm and keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior.     4    

Praise, praise, praise!

So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that his achievements are not celebrated enough.     5    

A．Teach manners by using polite requests and responses．

B．Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life.

C．Try to remember that a child won’t always agree with you.

D．A child may act as he pleases, and he will live a happy life.

E．Respectful behavior always comes with bad behavior as a child.

F．If he sees your anger beyond control, he is more likely to respond that way in future.

G．Seeing a child exhibit respectful behavior, make sure he knows how proud you are of him.

2 . When Central Bucks South became one of the first Philadelphia-area high schools to close due to fear of novel coronavirus exposure in early March, 16-year-old sophomore Andrew Chen knew that things were not going to return to normal as quickly as some of his peers hoped.

But still, the change from seeing his friends on the swim team during daily practices to learning alone at home was jarring. "I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted," Chen said.

The coronavirus has upended everyone's lives, but for students, the disruption feels particularly acute. Schools closed and graduation ceremonies were canceled. Summer plans, like camps and internships (实习)，are up in the air.

But right now, many students are trying to stay connected, struggling with misinformation, and figuring out the best ways they can help through online method.

For Josh Harycki, 17, a senior student at the Ship-ley School in Philadelphia, the best way to contribute was to create a "social distancing pledge (承诺)" for young people.

"I saw a lot of younger generations not paying attention," he said. "They were still going out, hanging out with people. I thought that there had to be a way to reach younger folks, who were probably not watching the news."

Harycki launched a call to action on social media and then built a website with a map that tracked the locations of people who'd signed the pledge. The site also shares links to accurate sources of information like the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can't connect with their friends in the same way, so he created the social distancing pledge to stress that while everyone might be physically distant, they're still connected.

"Part of what we're highlighting is that you might feel like you're the only one taking this

seriously, but our map shows that you're not alone," he said.

3. Who does Harycki mainly want to reach out to?

A．Friends who are worried and bored.

B．Folks taking the coronavirus seriously.

C．Younger generations trying to contribute.

D．Young people who are not aware of the situation.

4. What's Harycki's purpose in creating the "social distancing pledge"?

A．To convince young people to stay at home.

B．To track those people infected with the coronavirus.

C．To inform young folks of latest news about the coronavirus.

D．To show young people they shouldn't be concerned about the coronavirus.

4 . 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。

Recently I graduated from high school, and as a gift I received a huge hunch of flowers, 40 to be exact! I had so many that I didn't know what to do with them. The next weekend my niece and nephew, Sue and Mike, aged 6 and 7, came and suddenly I had an idea. I might let them give out these flowers to people they met on the street, and in this way they could learn how to be friendly to others. So I told them about my plan and explained that these flowers would make people feel happy and smile. They loved the idea and were eager to have a try. So at once we took every single flower and tied a smile card to it. We then went to the street with the flowers.

The first flower went to a policeman. As soon as she saw the policeman, my niece ran up to him and handed him a flower. His smile was so big, but hers was even bigger!

In no time, we neared the end of our flowers. It was lunch time and we went to Subway for lunch. There the kids gave a flower to the waitress, who was really excited to receive the flower. As we were eating our lunch, the waitress came up to the kids with two big chocolate cookies! She said the chocolate cookies were for them and that she really liked the flower! As they ate the cookies, my niece and nephew looked at me with the biggest smiles I had ever seen.

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。

With just one flower left, I said it should be given to the person who needed it most.

Every morning, I will go to school with lunch bags that contained a sandwich, fruit, and dessert.

Then, one day, much to my surprise, there was no dessert in my lunch! What could have happened to it? Did Mom forget to make or buy it? Oh, well, I thought. It's only one time, so it's no big deal. But, for the next few days, my lunch contained no dessert! So one day, after school, as soon as I got home, I asked," Mom! Why haven't you been putting a dessert in my school lunches?" Mom answered, "Why, Eugene. I have been including a dessert in your lunch. If you're not getting them, then who is?"

So then we thought of my activities, and what I did with my lunch each day. As soon as I arrived at school I always put my lunch in the classroom closet（储物间）along with all of the other lunches. And that brought us to Carl---the bad boy of the third-grade classroom. The teacher didn't like him in class and would send him to the closet, where he would spend most of each day.

Carl lived in a group faster home（集体寄养之家）.He was loud and somewhat of a thief; he would take just about anything that wasn't fastened down, so he wasn't welcome at school. Mom and I concluded that with nothing else to do Carl was probably going through the lunches and eating what he liked.

8 . Simply being quiet is a growing appeal. Lots of business have appeared to meet a rising demand for quiet time, from silent weekend getaways to silent dining, silent reading parties and even silent dating. Silence can mean different things to different people. We are usually silent only with those closest to us. So there is something almost radical(不同凡响的)about the recent trend towards enjoying silence with strangers.

Mariel started a regular silent reading party in Dundee just under a year ago. Readers bring their books and meet in a bar, where they read together in silence for an hour or sometimes two and then put their books away to chat and have a drink. “When the reading party starts, everything goes quiet,” says Mariel, “ It’s a little bit surreal (超现实的), especially in what is usually a noisy bar. However, there is something special about sharing the silence with others. It offers a chance to escape from reality; everyone is so busy with work and with technology being ever present. An event like this gives people the opportunity to escape these things for a while.”

Honi Ryan is an artist based in Berlin who began hosting silent dinner back in 2006. The rules of the dinner are: no talking, no using your voice, no reading or writing, trying to make as little noise as possible, not connecting with technology, and staying for at least two hours. So far she has taken her silent dinner project to Mexico, the US, Australia and China. “It’s evident that the age-old connections we make over food do not depend on the words around it. Silence creates the space for the people and places involved to fill with whatever is needed; it is quite different from our usual social behaviors.”

1. Why have lots of silent businesses appeared?

A．To satisfy people’s demand for silence.

B．To make people get close to each other.

C．To appeal to young people.

D．To change people’s old way of life.

2. What can we learn about Mariel’s silent reading parties?

A．Readers can use their voice while reading.

B．Readers can be busy with their work.

C．Readers can connect with technology.

D．Readers can chat and drink after reading.

3. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to       .

A．noise

B．space

C．silence

D．food

4. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Escape from Reality.	B．Enjoying Being Quiet.
C．Silent Reading Parties.	D．Silent Dining Projects.
