Ⅰ　阅读理解
A
A new study of 8,000 young people in the journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love(早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.
The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”， this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won't tell that to their parents.
Dr Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.
Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes—and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就男女生早恋问题进行阐述，指出早恋对青少年的危害并分析了其中的原因，进而为父母提出了一些建议。
1．What's the main idea of the passage?
A．Puppy love may bring young people depression.
B．Parents should forbid their children's love.
C．Romance is a two－edged sword for adults.
D．Romance is good for young people.
答案：A　主旨大意题。文章主要讲早恋可能导致青少年，尤其是女孩得抑郁症，且由第一段第二句 “Puppy love (早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression.” 可知正确答案为A。
2．Which of the following is more likely to have depression?
A．Young people who have a strong sense of self.
B．Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.
C．Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.
D．Careless parents whose children are deep in love.
答案：C　细节理解题。由第一段最后一句和第二段倒数第二句可知，年轻女孩比男孩更容易得抑郁症，又因为年轻女孩往往在恋爱中隐藏自己的情绪和观点。所以隐藏自己情绪和观点的年轻女孩最容易得抑郁症，故正确答案为C。
3．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.
B．Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.
C．Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.
D．The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.
答案：D　推理判断题。由文章倒数第二句 “The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age.” 可知，恋爱和抑郁之间的联系随着年纪的增长而减弱，由此推断年长的女性不容易得抑郁症，故正确答案为D。
4．What's the author's attitude towards puppy love?
A．Confused. B．Disapproving.
C．Disinterested. D．Scared.
答案：B　观点态度题。文章主要讲早恋可能导致女孩得抑郁症，由此可以推断作者对早恋的态度是不赞同的。故正确答案为B。
B

“Joe? Is that you？” The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.“Marci？” I asked.“It is you！” she cried out, smiling broadly. “It's good to see you again！”
It was good to see Marci, too. Off and on during the past few decades, I've wondered about her. I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci. So meeting her at the baseball game was really a surprise.
We spent a few minutes talking about our lives—the good old, bad old days. Then Marci grew quiet for a moment. “You know, Joe，” she said, “I've always wanted to tell you how ... how ... sorry I am for the way I treated you. You must have been hurt both physically and mentally.” I was a little embarrassed. I turned and looked at her. “It's OK，” I said, “No big deal！” “But I was such a jerk，” she continued. Yes you were, I thought. “We were both pretty young，” I smiled. “I know，” she said. “It's just always bothered me, remembering how mean I was to you. And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.” The expression on her face was warm and sincere. And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief. “OK，” I said. “Apology accepted！” Overcome by the sweetness of the moment, I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug. Just then, the crowd erupted with a huge cheer, and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game. By the time I looked over to where she had been, she was gone. But the warm, wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there, and continues to this day whenever I think about it.
It isn't enough to just say “I'm sorry” and “You're forgiven”. But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed, they can open the door to miracles of the heart. Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul—even years after the fact. Even at a baseball game.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。“我”在棒球赛场见到了多年未见的朋友Marci。她见到“我”后为自己以前刻薄的行为向“我”真诚地道歉，“我”立刻原谅了她。之后我们都感觉到温暖和愉快。
5．What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?
A．Happy. B．Busy.
C．Hard. D．Simple.
答案：C　细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci.”可知，在20世纪90年代Marci生活得很艰难，故C项正确。
6．What does the underlined word “jerk” in the third paragraph mean?
A．A humorous person. B．A rude person.
C．A careless person. D．An honest person.
答案：B　词义猜测题。根据画线词下文中的“It's just always bothered me, remembering how mean I was to you.”可知，当时她对“我”很刻薄，这件事一直困扰着她，再结合画线词所在句可知，她认为她是一个刻薄的人；据此可知，画线词与B项含义相近，故B项正确。
7．Why did Marci look in relief after talking with the author?
A．Because her favorite team won the game.
B．Because she learned Joe was living a good life.
C．Because she made an apology to the author.
D．Because she found she was not mean any longer.
答案：C　细节理解题。根据第三段第十三至十五句“‘And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.’ The expression on her face was warm and sincere. And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief.”可知，由于Marci向“我”真诚地道了歉，所以她的眼里露出了轻松，故C项正确。
8．What might be the best title for the passage?
A．Excitement of a Baseball Game
B．Mental Burden of a Woman
C．Miracles of Forgiveness
D．Relief of Finding a Friend
答案：C　标题判断题。通读全文可知，文章最后两句为全文的主题句；结合全文内容可知，本文通过讲述“我”接受朋友Marci的真诚道歉，体会到原谅可以抚慰受伤的心灵的故事，说明了原谅创造的奇迹，故C项最适合作为本文标题。
Ⅱ　读后续写
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
When I was eleven years old, I had a big accident. I get scared even now when I think about that time. I went_skating near my house. There were many people, and I saw some of them falling on the ice.
It was my first time to go ice skating, so I was nervous. I was wondering how to skate.
I went with a friend who was very skillful. He spent some time teaching me how to skate, but I didn't learn much. He left me and skated all around. As soon as he left, I fell_down. I envied the other people because they could skate_well.
I was bored because I kept falling so I took off my skates and just walked around on the ice in my shoes. It was cold and my hands were frozen.
Suddenly, I stepped on something that was not hard. What was it? It was a weak place in the ice. When I stepped there, I sank under the ice. I thought that I was going to die, but I did my best to grab something to get out from under the ice. I tried to grab the edge of the ice, but it was very difficult for an eleven－year－old kid.
It seemed like a very long time, like a year. Then, fortunately,_someone helped me. He grabbed my arms and pulled me up. So, I lived and I'm still alive today.
I thanked him. At that time, my friend came back. I was annoyed at him because he was supposed to take_care_of_me,_but he didn't. He was embarrassed. When I took a taxi home, the taxi driver was surprised and asked what had happened. I didn't want to say anything because I was tired and scared. Whenever_I_think_about_that_time,_I feel uncomfortable. I don't want to go skating again even now.

写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了作者在滑冰时遭遇的一次意外，幸好被陌生人搭救的故事。但滑冰这件事却给作者留下了阴影……　
[精彩范文]
Paragraph 1：
It was long before I went skating once again, accompanied by one of my friends. This time I was careful and cautious, and my friend took special care of me. Fortunately this time I managed not to fall_down. Gradually I learned to skate_well and became skillful. I felt very confident and no longer scared.
Paragraph 2：
However, ever since then I haven't found any time to go skating, not because I do not like skating, but because I am too busy working. Whenever_I_think_about_that_time,_I find that I've learned a lot from these two skating experiences. We all have moments of desperation. But if we can face them bravely, we will find out how strong we really are. Whatever you do, you must have the patience to do it well. Remember: Never get too much pride because of victory or lose heart in case of failure.
