【題目】I was at a loss for how to handle the fights among my kick- Many activities had been tried, but they didn’t work. After reading What I Know for Sure written by Oprah Winfrey, a thought occurred to me one day.

“Starting with Dora, I want everyone to find the chance to say ‘thank you’.” I declared.

“What?” Ashley asked. “What’s going on?’’

“Just do it.”

Naturally, the kid^ all thought I had lost my mind. I wasn’t sure if they were wrong, but I pressed on.

“Now, we’re going to keep going around and everyone tells what they’re thankful for.”

Clearly doubtful and frustrated, the kids launched in, and I kept them going.

“I’m thankful for our house.”

“I’m thankful for my clothes.”

“I’m thankful for my whole life and everyone in the world.”

“What? What am I supposed to say?”

‘‘Keep going.”

“I’m grateful for my underwear!” Instant laughter erupted, music to my ears!

“Great, lei it out!” I encouraged. “What else?”

And that was all we needed. The gratitude--great and small, serious and funny---came rolling out.

“My backpack.”

“My teachers.”

On and on it went until every face was lit with a new kind of joy and laughter. I could sense a new feeling of peace and comfort in the air a reminder of not only our blessings, but the love we really did have for each other.

“I’m grateful for being grateful!” Dora declared.

“Me, too!” was the unanimous response.

I don’t remember the activities that took place the rest of the day. But it was a day when our family was transformed by two simple words: thank you. Since then, it’s become a family motto.

【1】Why did the author ask her kids to find the chance to say “thank you”?

A. To play games among them. B. To kill their free lime.

C. To solve their fights. D. To make them be polite.

【2】How did Ashley react when hearing his mother’s suggestion at first?

A. He was puzzled. B. He felt very glad.

C. He supported it. D. He responded actively.

【3】What does the underlined word “unanimous” probably mean?

A. Funny. B. Unimportant.

C. Unexpected. D. Agreed.

【4】What may be the best title for the text?

A. Mom’s Big Heart B. A Sweet Home

C. Magic of a Family Motto D. A Meaningful Family Meeting

【答案】

【1】C

【2】A

【3】D

【4】C

【解析】這是一篇記敘文。通過對話的形式，講述了一個家庭的故事，告訴讀者一個深刻的道理。在生活中，我們要尋找機(jī)會說一聲“謝謝”，因為這兩個字能改變一個家庭。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“I was at a loss for how to handle the fights among my kick- Many activities had been tried, but they didn’t work”“我不知道如何處理我踢的比賽，試了很多活動，但都沒有奏效”可知，作者是為了解決孩子之間的爭吵才讓孩子說謝謝的。故選 C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段““What?” Ashley asked. “What’s going on”“什么？Ashley問道。怎么回事？”可知，Ashley對作者的做法充滿疑惑。故選A。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二三段“I’m grateful for being grateful!” Dora declared.“Me, too!””“我感謝你的感激， Dora 宣稱。我也是�！笨芍�，這是孩子們一致回答。故選D。

【4】主旨大意題�！癇ut it was a day when our family was transformed by two simple words: thank you. Since then, it’s become a family motto.”“但這一天，我們家被兩個簡單的詞所改變：謝謝。從那時起，它成為家里的座右銘�！惫蔬xC。

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項中，選出最佳選項。
（A）
An Open Letter to an Editor
I had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently — one who works for you. In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.
Your reporter gave me a copy of his résumé (簡歷) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues, approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him.
Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment, and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.
So why is he looking for a way out?
He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.
The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.
He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for our paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?
So your reporter has set me thinking.
Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists — everyone — is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.
（1）What does the writer think of the reporter?
A.Optimistic.
B.Imaginative.
C.Ambitious.
D.Proud.
（2）What does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks?
A.Finding the news value of his stories.
B.Giving him financial support.
C.Helping him to find issues.
D.Improving his good ideas.
（3）Who probably wrote the letter?
A.An editor.
B.An artist.
C.A reporter.
D.A reader.

【題目】閱讀理解
If you have spent any time living in or visiting a big city in China, you have most likely used the service that Didi provides. The convenient ride-sharing company, now known as Didi Chuxing, was praised last month by Fortune magazine. According to the magazine, it is changing the world with its environmentally friendly solution to getting around in major cities. As the magazine reported: “Didi concluded that last year its car-pooling services helped reduce total car trips in the country by 1 million a day, which saved 500 million liters of gas, cutting 13.5 million tons of carbon emissions (排放) per day.” The transport service was the only Chinese company to make the important magazine's list, and its influence can be felt in many parts of Chinese society.
Didi is just one example of what is being called the “sharing economy”. The sharing economy is one in which regular people exchange goods and services, usually using an online marketplace. Other similar companies include companies that allow people to rent out their homes to strangers like Airbnb and Couchsurfing, and similar ride sharing services like Uber and Lyft.
All of these services are possible partly because many people are realizing that they have underused assets in their lives. Millions of people around the world have started renting them out online to earn extra money. They rent their apartments while they are away for the weekend, lend people their cars for money and even sell their spare time.
The sharing economy is the latest example of the Internet's value to customers. This model is now big enough for regulators and companies to have woken up to it. That is a sign of its great potential. It is time to start caring about sharing.
（1）What does the first paragraph imply?
A.Didi Chuxing can bring down the price of gas.
B.Didi Chuxing has solved the traffic jam in China.
C.Didi Chuxing is helpful to environment.
D.Didi Chuxing is the best transport service in China.
（2）What does the underlined word “assets” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Possessions.
B.Services.
C.Houses.
D.Cars.
（3）What is the purpose of the passage?
A.To stress the importance of online services.
B.To introduce the “sharing economy”.
C.To advertise a new means of transport.
D.To explain the benefits of using Didi.

【題目】How to Have a Successful Remote Interview?

If interviews make you nervous, the thought of doing one remotely might be a relief. 【1】 Even if your interviewer may have a hard time seeing you sweat, they will still ask questions. Think of a phone or video interview as an extra opportunity to impress. If you create a genuine connection with someone without being in the same place as them, chances are they’ll trust your ability. 【2】

● Test your equipment.

【3】 For a video interview, it’s important to do a trial run in advance, since they can be especially troublesome. “These are live, so it’s very important to test your connection ahead of time,” says Scott Dobroski, the director of Corporate Communication at Glassdoor.

● 【4】

You don’t want your interviewer to think you’re in an underground place. So skip the dark, dull mood lighting. Pick a spot where the light is facing you and try to set yourself up in a relaxing atmosphere and at a comfortable distance. Ideally, have slightly an inch of space above your head.

● Take your time.

A common mistake people make is cutting someone else off in conversation. This is even easier to do when you can’t see the person you’re talking to. So even if it feels slightly unnatural, wait for a while after your interviewer finishes a sentence. 【5】 He may understand why. But you don’t want to come across as rushing the conversation or being more interested in hearing yourself talk than establishing a connection.

A.Get the atmosphere right.

B.But you should still take them seriously.

C.Here are three tips to make the whole process go smoothly.

D.Buy a phone or video before you have the interview.

E.Gutting him off a time or two might not be a big problem.

F.Make sure that your phone is charged and your Wi-Fi works.

G.Your interviewer will be happy to see you cut him off.
