Next time you hear yourself wishing for something better in your life, remember the word “SMART”. When
you’ve decided to take action, read the following first.
S is for specific: For example, instead of setting a goal of “I want to lose weight”, set yourself a specific goal
like “I want to lose five kilograms”. If you want to climb a high mountain, start your research, set a date and train
for the climbing fitness.
M is for measurable: Don’t try to “become healthy”, instead, set a goal that can be measured while carrying
out an improved eating, exercise or lifestyle plan. For example, try to go to the gym for an hour three times a week,
to visit your grandma once a week for an evening meal, or to eat no more than 200 grams of chocolate a week.A is for achievable: If you’ve never exercised in your life, don’t try to take part in the 2020 Olympics. Rather,
get walking with a specific goal of how many steps to take a day. No need to try for the stars—baby steps are good.
R is for relevant: Many of us choose goals that seem right, but are in fact wrong. They may go on for a few
weeks before they fail. Try to avoid making the same mistake—rather choose goals that really speak to you.
T is for time-conscious: Finally, be very clear in your mind about how much time you are giving yourself to
achieve the goal. That way, you know when you’ve succeeded, failed or whether you need to work harder to finish
it before the last day.

Good manners play an important part in maintaining peace in society. A man with good manners doesn’t hurt
others’ feelings, and therefore he’s on good terms with everyone. In this way he helps to keep the peace in society.
But a man with bad manners has no respect for others. He uses words carelessly and behaves rudely towards
others and causes a lot of unpleasantness. In the end, he himself will suffer the most. Everyone avoids him and he is
forced to live alone.
To live well in society, money alone is not enough. Even the richest man cannot afford to have bad manners.
He may have enough money to buy all things he wants; but if his manners are bad, he will have no friends, and no
one can live happily without friends.
We should have good manners, for it’s human nature to try to get friendship; and friendship has to be earned
through our own attitude towards others. If we are kind to others, they will be kind to us, and kindness is the most
basic quality of good manners. Bad manners drive away friends as well as our own family members.
On the other hand, a man with good manners has many friends. He commands the respect of all those who
come into contact with him. He doesn’t talk ill about others. Even when he’s provoked, he tries his best not to
upset others. He also feels sorry about the weak and the disabled.
There are, however, many people who behave so well outside their homes that they are respected by everyone
outside. But in their own homes they are worse than the devil（魔鬼）. Such people cannot be said to have good
manners. Their behavior will soon be discovered by others.
If one’s manners are good, one behaves well everywhere, even when one is away from the critical（爱挑剔
的）eyes of others. Only such a person can live well in society.
39. People with good manners bring society _____.
A. peace B. enjoyment C. respect D. friendship
40. What does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 4 ?
A. People are born friendly.
B. Bad manners make people lose friends.
C. Money is not the most important.
D. Kind people will be treated kindly.
41. The underlined word“provoked”in the passage may mean _____.
A. tired B. sad C. made angry D. left alone42. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Kindness is important.
B. Friendship is important.
C. Good manners are important.
D. People with bad manners can’t live well.
【答案】39. A 40. D 41. C 42. C

【42题详解】
主旨大意题。文章的中心在首段和尾段，重点表达礼貌的重要性和好处所在。故选C。
Diet drinks may taste good, but they might not bring happiness. A new study finds that people who drink diet
sodas or fruit drinks are more likely to be diagnosed (诊断) with depression.
The study doesn’t show that diet drinks cause depression and the researchers stress their findings don’t provide
an explanation. They looked at more than 263,900 U.S. adults ages 50 to 71 who answered questions about their
beverage （饮料） consumption（摄入量） between the years 1995 and 1996. About 10 years later (from 2004
to 2006), the same people were asked if a doctor had diagnosed them with depression since the year 2000.
People who regularly drank four or more cans of any type of soda a day were 30 percent more likely to have
received a diagnosis of depression than people who did not drink soda, said Dr. Honglei Chen of the National
Institutes of Health, who led the study. The risk of depression was especially high for people who drank diet soda
— a 31 percent increased risk compared to a 22 percent increased risk for those who drank regular soda, the
researchers said.
Those who drank four or more cans of diet fruit drinks were 51 percent more likely to be diagnosed with
depression compared to those who did not drink diet fruit drinks.By contrast, people who drank four or more cups of coffee a day were 10 percent less likely to have been
diagnosed with depression compared to non-coffee drinkers.
The study only found an association, and did not determine （确定） whether diet soda or fruit drinks
caused depression. Although the researchers took into account factors that could affect the results, such as age,
sex, education, smoking status, physical activity, body mass index (BMI) and energy intake, it’s possible other
circumstances, such as a family history of depression or stressful life events, could explain the association.
A family history of depression and stressful life events are some of the biggest predictors of depression, said
Emma Robertson-Blackmore, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center, who
was not involved in the study. In addition, older people are more likely to experience stressful life events, including
the death of a loved one, job changes or illnesses, Robertson-Blackmore said.
However, the findings agree with those of a few previous studies that found a link between frequent
consumption of sweetened beverages and a higher prevalence (流行程度) of depression, the researchers said. (Diet
sodas and fruit drinks are sweetened, but their sweeteners contain no calories.)
“More research is needed to confirm these findings, and people with depression should continue to take
depression medications prescribed by their doctors,” said Chen.
43. People who drink four or more _______ every day are the most likely to feel depressed.
A. cups of coffee B. cans of fruit drinks
C. cans of diet soda D. cans of regular soda
44. The underlined phrase “took into account” means ___________.
A. checked out B. went through
C. drew a conclusion D. paid attention to
45. What can we learn from Dr. Honglei Chen’s study?
A. Diet drinks taste good but they don’t always bring happiness.
B. Drinking a lot of diet drinks regularly will lead to depression.
C. There is a close connection between diet drinks and depression.
D. Stressful life events can explain why people may feel depressed.
46. What is the purpose of the writer writing the article?
A. To find out why diet drinking leads to depression.
B. To present findings on diet drinking and depression.
C. To warn us against drinking diet soda or fruit drinks.
D. To suggest a healthy way of drinking for a better life.
【答案】43. C 44. D 45. C 46. B【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了最新 的研究发现，无糖汽水与抑郁有联系但是不确定无糖

【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“People who regularly drank four or more cans of any type of soda a day were 30
percent more likely to have received a diagnosis of depression than people who did not drink soda”可知每天喝了
四罐或者更多的无糖汽水更有可能抑郁。故选C。
【44题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“factors that could affect the results”引起这些结果的因素，可知took into account表示“考

四、任务型阅读
I’m David and I’ve been living in the United States for over ten years, and I now say thank you about 50 times
a day. Often I do it without thinking. I say thank you to the cashier at the coffee shop. I say thank you to my wife
and my 5-year-old daughter several times a day for different things. When I first moved to the United States, I
didn’t know I was supposed to thank someone who took my money for something I bought at a store. I had no idea
I was supposed to thank people when they asked how I was doing.
I grew up in the northern Indian city of Lucknow, in a culture in which saying thank you is not done lightly. I
learned to say thank you in English when I was in elementary school. And when I thanked anyone, I said it in
English, which was less embarrassing and more casual than doing so in Hindi. I saved my thanks for those who had
done huge favors for me. And I didn’t thank my friends or classmates very often. When I did, they regarded the act
as a playful way to practise English.
Saying dhanyavaad, or thank you in Hindi, to someone without looking at him or her is just as good as not
saying it at all. As a kid, I heard my father say dhanyavaad to people of his age, and he did it as seriously as
possible, with his hands joined in front of his chest. He wasn’t just thanking someone for something, but asking for
an opportunity to return the favor.Now, when I travel to India, I often upset people by saying thank you to them. On a recent trip home, I was
invited to my uncle’s house for dinner. He’s been a father figure to me, teaching me many things at every step of
my life. That day, I made the mistake of telling him, in English, “Thank you for inviting me” before leaving his
house. He didn’t respond, but I saw he was unhappy. I couldn’t even apologize for thanking him. The damage was
done.
Different countries and different people have different manners. We must find out their customs, so that they
will not think us ill-mannered.

五、完成句子
52. 在你们国家，第一次见面该做些什么啊？
In your country, what ________you ________when you meet someone for the first time?
【答案】 ①. are ②. supposed to do
【解析】
【详解】表示“应做某事”用be supposed to do，主语是you，疑问词what后面接be动词are，主语后面接
supposed to do。故填are；supposed to do。
53. 当我见朋友的时候，我努力做到准时。
I ________to be ________time when I meet friends.
【答案】 ①. make an effort ②. on
【解析】
【详解】make an effort努力，固定短语。本句为when引导的时间状语从句，从句为一般现在时，结合语意可知，主句也为一般现在时，主语I为第一人称，故此处应用make的原形。on time准时，固定短语。
故答案为make an effort，on。
54. 我总是早早出门以避免交通拥堵，因为我认为不应该让别人等。
I always leave the house early to ________because I don’t think I should ________.
【答案】 ①. avoid heavy traffic ②. keep others waiting
【解析】
【详解】avoid避免，动词，与空前to连用构成动词不定式表目的，故应用其原形；heavy traffic交通拥堵；
keep sb doing sth让某人一直做某事，其后应接动词的ing形式；wait等待，此处应用其ing形式；others代
词，其他人。故答案为avoid heavy traffic，keep others waiting。
55. 一个旅行者不指望知道所有这些（规则），但是学习尽可能多的风俗习惯是很有帮助的。
A traveler________ to know all of these, but it is helpful to learn ________many of these customs________.
【答案】 ①. is not expected ②. as ③. as possible.
【解析】
【详解】“期望做某事”为expect to do sth.，主语A traveler和动词 expect之间是被动关系，分析句子可
知应用一般现在时的被动语态am/is/are +done，主语为A traveler，系动词用is，expect的过去分词为
expected，根据句意此句为否定句，应在系动词后加not，所以第一空应填is not expected；“尽可能……
的”为as…as possible。故答案为(1) is not expected (2)as (3) as possible。
56. 把筷子插在食物里是不礼貌的，也不应该用筷子指着别人。
It’s ________to ________your chopsticks ________ your food, and you shouldn’t ________ anyone with your
chopsticks, either.
【答案】 ①. impolite ②. stick ③. into ④. point at
【解析】
【详解】It's+形容词+to do sth，it作形式主语，to do不定式作逻辑主语。impolite不礼貌的，形容词；stick
into插入，动词短语，其中动词stick用其原形；point at指向，动词短语，句中情态动词shouldn't后用其原
形。故答案为impolite，stick，into，point at。
57. 我最大的挑战是学习餐桌礼仪。
My ________is learning how to ________at the dinner table.
【答案】 ①. biggest challenge ②. behave
【解析】
【详解】根据题干中汉英对比可知要翻译“最大的挑战”、“表现得体”。最大的挑战biggest challenge，
空前有形容词性物主代词“My”，最高级前不加the，be动词is是第三人称单数，challenge用单数；表现
得体behave，根据题干中“how to ____ at the dinner table”可知此处用“疑问词+不定式”结构，to后接动词原形。故答案为biggest challenge; behave。
58. 我不得不说我发现记住所有东西很困难，但是我慢慢地习惯了。
I ________say that I find ________ to remember everything, but I’m ________ to it.
【答案】 ①. have to ②. it difficult ③. getting used

是I，have用原形；发现做某事…… find it +形容词+to do sth.，困难的difficult；慢慢地习惯get used to，
空前有be动词，此处用getting构成现在进行时，表示逐渐变化。故答案为have to; it difficult; getting
used。
