Stop Overthinking by Nick Trenton

2．For most of us teaching seventh-grader English would be similar to teaching flying monkeys to sit.Just thinking about it，we might feel frustrated.But it was not for Miss Smith.For 40 years，she stood in front of her classroom，tapping the blackboard where an inspirational quote was drawn neatly. "Open your notebook and write，" she would instruct.If a student was late，she would simply say， "Write about why you are late today." The content and style didn't matter.It was the connection of thought to paper that was the aim.
If you write long enough，these thoughts will turn into feelings and feelings on paper become visible，clear enough to examine.The anxiety of seventh-graders，the puberty （青春期） crisis and the mixture of emotions need a way out.Miss Smith knew that.She knew her teenage students needed to develop their own guidance systems，or they needed to deal with the forces that surrounded them.
The quotes Miss Smith carefully wrote on the chalkboard were inspirational，and could encourage self-reflection.Most of the notebooks were filled with silly nonsense，like looking forward to pancakes for lunch，or worse，line after line stating that they didn't know what to write then.Regardless of those，Miss Smith read every entry and in neat red handwriting，wrote notes of encouragement and praise.
She would read Shakespeare and ask how Romeo must have felt about being rejected by his friends and family.The characters in the literature gave students permission to get emotional growth in a safe way，and the words inside those notebooks became more and more personal as time went on.Those who used to be problem students and need saving later became journalists and fiction writers.
No one would disagree that she made every student feel they are not only what they are now but they are more.That point drove them to work hard and see what that "more" was going to be.This is the greatest charm of Miss Smith.
（1）What can be learned about Miss Smith？
A．She was easy to get frustrated with her job.
B．She always got students to express feelings by writing.
C．She was assigned to teach the worst class in the school.
D．She had taught the English writing course for forty years.
（2）What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 probably refer to？
A．The advantages of recording life on paper.
B．The importance of puberty for a child's development.
C．The difficulty of understanding and guarding children's rights.
D．The characteristics of teenage children and the coping methods.
（3）What's the feature of the sentences in most students' original notebooks？
A．They're nearly meaningless.
B．They're quotes from famous people.
C．They' re a great encouragement to students.
D．They' re inspirational and set people thinking.
（4）What's the author mainly trying to show in Paragraph 4？
A．Miss Smith treats her students equally.
B．Miss Smith has a wide knowledge of literature.
C．Miss Smith's teaching methods turn out successful.
D．Miss Smith teaches students according to their potential.組卷：4引用：4難度：0.3 -
3．As new year approaches，crowds around the world may be expecting fireworks to light up the sky.But the fireworks could finally lose their appeal with the growing use of drones （無人機） for light shows.One obvious example was drone light show in the opening ceremony of Tokyo Olympics.
Ollie Howitt，a technician at SkyMagic，which used 300 drones to create a display for London's new year celebration，said demand had increased substantially.She added that drones were increasingly able to fly in greater density and for longer.Howitt also said there were benefits of drones， "They give out no pollutants，they're reusable，and there's no fallout or that kind of thing.So in that sense they are a very sensible choice."
Robert Neff，the general manager at Mercia Harbor，also said the decision to use a drone display at the harbor was down to a number of factors，including the impact of fireworks on animals — from wildlife to the pets of boat owners. "They've often commented on how much suffering is caused to their pets by the fireworks，" he said.
But not everyone agrees.Hans Rosling，a spokesperson from the British Fireworks Association said drones could also pose environmental problems. "Suggestions are that drones have less of an impact on the environment，but we have concerns about electrical demand and use of lithium （鋰） batteries which are known not to be all that 'green'，" he said. "The impact of firework use on the environment has been shown to be minor and very short-lived and recent studies have suggested that there is likely to be more pollution from a couple of cars driving to an event than caused by fireworks at an event."
And there are issues with drone light displays，which need to receive specific safety approval from certain authorities.Some suggest the use of drones doesn't mean shutting off fireworks.The bangs of fireworks create a sound feeling that is hard to replace.Meanwhile，others prefer the chance to tell stories in the sky by using a series of image.
（1）Why does the writer talk about the Tokyo Olympics in Para 1？
A．To attract readers' attention to the Olympics.
B．To advocate setting off fireworks in the new year.
C．To introduce the popular use of drones for light shows.
D．To highlight people's celebration of this opening ceremony.
（2）What did Ollie Howitt think of drone displays？
A．They bring environmental problems.
B．They cause little suffering to the pets.
C．They add color to the new year celebration.
D．They are economical and environmentally-friendly.
（3）Which of the following did Hans Rosling agree with？
A．Firework displays last shorter than drone displays.
B．The pollution from fireworks isn't as much as people think.
C．Drones have less impact on the environment than fireworks.
D．People should abandon the drone displays because of lithium batteries.
（4）What are people's attitudes towards drone light displays？
A．Controversial.
B．Favorable.
C．Cautious.
D．Neutral.組卷：19引用：7難度：0.5 -
4．We are often so attracted by the promises of modern digital life that we fail to notice its danger.It's that feeling of losing control that we get a dozen times a day，from when we get distracted（分心）with our phones in a discussion to when we can't appreciate a private moment without sharing it with virtual audience.
In my first attempt to get control over my technology use，I set my phone to vibrate rather than ring.Soon after，another problem appeared.The act of continually checking the phone became a habit.I knew then that using only tips to permanently reform digital life is difficult.We should go past the notification settings（通知模式）on our devices or apps and consider the more essential topic of why we use so many apps in the first place.What all of us who are struggling with these challenges need is a technology usage philosophy，something that explains from the ground up which digital tools we allow into our lives，why，and under what conditions.
Cal Newport，a professor of computer science，defines Digital Minimalism（極簡主義）as a "philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected activities that strongly support the things you value，and then happily miss out on everything else."
To do so，however，we cannot passively allow the tools and apps provided by the internet age to control how we spend our time or how we feel.Instead，we must take steps to draw the positive aspects of these technologies while sidestepping the negative aspects.
（1）What does "its danger" in the first paragraph refer to？
A．Feeling depressed.
B．Getting distracted in a discussion.
C．Giving up private moments.
D．Losing control of your digital life.
（2）Why does the author mention his own experiences？
A．To make a comparison.
B．To explain a phenomenon.
C．To bring in a better solution.
D．To clarify misunderstandings.
（3）Which of the following will digital minimalists agree to？
A．Ignoring the side effect of digital tools.
B．Devoting your screen time to valuable things.
C．Spending more time selecting information.
D．Getting away from entertainment apps.
（4）What's the text mainly about？
A．Reforms in life.
B．Technology challenges.
C．Apps and social media sites.
D．Technology usage philosophy.組卷：21引用：7難度：0.6

5．Reading poetry can be challenging，but learning how to carefully move through a poem is also very rewarding.（1）
But，by following the tips below，anyone can have the deeply rewarding experience of connecting to a great poem.
Sound abounds （有許多）.Poetry is made to be heard.You're probably familiar with rhyming poems：roses are red，violets are blue…but there are many sound elements that poets use not only to make the poem sound beautiful，but to enhance the meaning or intention of a poem.（2）What do you notice about how it sounds？How does the sound enhance an overall theme，mood，or message？
（3）Many poems may use words or reference places or times in history that may be unfamiliar to you.Be curious enough to look up all the words and references that you're unfamiliar with.You should also gather information about the poet，what was happening in their lives，and what was going on in the world around them.All of these can offer essential context to bring the poem to life.
Analyze the figurative （比喻的） language in the poem.Figurative language could be words that are repeated often in the poem or words that rhyme in each stanza （節(jié)）.To get more into the figurative meaning of the poem，you should look at how the poet us literary devices like metaphor，simile，and imagery.（4）
Finally，you don't have to understand it to engage with it and enjoy it.If you like the way a poem sounds when you read it aloud，but don't know what it "means，" that's OK!（5）The great thing about art is that it can have lots of different meanings or seemingly no meaning at all and can still be enjoyed.The same goes for poetry.
A.Curiosity kills the confusion.
B.Look up the words you do not understand.
C.They are often used to add deeper meaning to the poem.
D.Maybe it makes sense in a way that you can't necessarily express.
E.Once you find a poem that interests you，read it out loud several times.
F.You should also pay attention to how the poet opens and closes the poem.
G.Unlike painting and music，poetry requires a little extra effort to harvest its full effects.組卷：13引用：7難度：0.5

28．Ballet was a way of life in Kelly's family.Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a top college.Though Kelly's mom always wanted her to follow in her sister's footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet，her love for ballet had faded years before，and she was eager for a new challenge.
One day at school，as Kelly left the dance studio，she walked past the gym，fascinated by boxers（拳擊手）training inside the boxing ring.She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved.In fact，she'd long been attracted to boxing.
She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack.On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase：BOXING CLUB TRYOUT（選拔）.That was what Kelly really wanted to do.She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet.Tired of trying to keep up with her sister，Kelly was ready to carve her own path.
The next day，she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion.At first，Serena didn't understand and thought she was just joking.But when she saw Kelly was serious，she replied， "You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer，right？Besides，boxing is only for boys，and you're so good at ballet.Lean into your strength，Kelly."
"But this is where I want to put my strength，" Kelly insisted，"and what exactly does 'only for boys' mean，anyway？Boxing is a sport for everyone!"
Gradually，touched by her determination and passion，Serena began to understand and support her.Kelly could feel it.Her sister was going to respect her decision，no matter what.But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout，where she was required to show her footwork and punching（擊打）abilities with other candidates.Boxing didn't come natural to Kelly，but she had made up her mind to stick with her choice.
注意：
（1）續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
（2）請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Then Kelly began her training for the tryout，keeping it a secret from her mom.___________
