The Girl No One Talked To
Last year there was a girl at our school. Almost no one ever talked to her. I think it was because she seldom
showered, and she kind of smelled bad. Her name was Cindy. We always got on the school bus at the same bus stop.
Cindy didn’t have many friends. She seemed like a nice girl—who had an odor (气味) problem.
One day, I was walking up to the bus stop and I saw Carl making fun of her. I couldn’t hear what he was saying,
but I saw the way he was laughing and rolling his eyes in his ____13____ poking-fun-at-you way. I also saw how
sad it made Cindy. Holding her notebook tightly to her chest like a shield, she stared (盯着) at the ground and
____14____ as far away from him as possible without leaving the bus stop completely. As soon as I got close
enough, I glared at Carl to make him stop laughing. But he didn’t. So I walked over and stood closer to Cindy so she
wouldn’t feel quite so bad. It was when you just knew someone needed someone to be a friend.
She looked up from the ground and she whispered, “Hi.”
“Hi,” I said. Then as loudly as I could, I said, “Don’t pay any attention to Carl. His parents have been
____15____ in teaching him some manners.”
By now everyone there was talking with a friend. Quietly, and with a(n) ____16____ look on her face, Cindy
said, “I don’t know why everyone hates me.”
I was surprised at her words. “No one hates you,” I told her.
“Then why don’t I have any friends?” she asked.
Her question took me by surprise. I thought for a moment. “Well,” I began, wondering if I could tell her that
maybe it was because she smelled so awful, “I think you’re smart, and you dress okay, and…”
第2页/共12页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司“So then, what is it?”
“Well,” I hedged (躲闪) and then figured it’s now or never. “Maybe it’s because you…” I paused because I
almost said “stink” but instead, “don’t smell so good.”
She looked up, ____17____ my face as if checking to see if I was making fun of her or being mean. I guess
she decided I wasn’t. She nodded, like she believed what I said was true. Since she seemed to take this well, I added, “I
think you’d probably make more friends if you took more baths.” She looked away. Worried that I might have gone
too far, I shrugged and added, “It’s just a(n) ____18____.”
Turning back to face me, Cindy took a deep breath and said, “Thank you.” I was so relieved (放松的), and the
next moment the bus arrived, and all the kids started piling on.
“If I ____19____ a seat for you on the bus tomorrow,” she asked, “Will you sit with me?”
“Sure,” I said.
.
I’m happy to report that Cindy did take more baths from that day on And it wasn’t too long before she
started to make friends at school. I was one of them.
I made the ____20____ for the better in Cindy’s life. And got a new friend, too!
13. A. awful B. favourite C. typical D. private
14. A. looked B. moved C. passed D. pushed
15. A. impatient B. unconfident C. hopeless D. unsuccessful
16. A. serious B. active C. strict D. quiet
17. A. holding B. studying C. picturing D. covering
18. A. thought B. joke C. expression D. habit
19. A. buy B. leave C. set D. save
20. A. choice B. decision C. difference D. plan

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Heather. She loved her home. It was a big, two-floored house. She
had lived there for practically her whole life. “Heather, will you please come downstairs? I need to talk to you
about something important.” Her mother said, from downstairs. It was a chilly winter night. “Yes, mother!” Heather
said, then came downstairs. “What’s up?” She asked her parents, sitting down on the sofa, beside them.
“Dear, I want to talk to you about something important. It’s about this house. You see, month by month, this
place has been hard to repair, because it’s so old. We have decided to move houses.” Her mother said. Heather was
shocked to hear this. “But, mother, it’s fine! I will donate my money to repair this house! Please! Let’s not move!”
第4页/共12页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司she said, desperate to change her mother’s mind.
Before her mother could reply, she stormed upstairs to her room. She sat on her bed and cried. “I don’t want to
shift! This house isn’t all that old!” After some time, she lay down on her bed and slept.
The next day, at the breakfast, her mother sat down across from her. “Heather, I promise, you will like your
new home! You’ll be used to it before you know it!” Her mother said, trying to make Heather feel better. “Ok. I
hope you’re right.” Heather mumbled(咕哝). “We will move into an apartment, just 45 minutes away from this
house. The house may not have as many rooms which we have here, but it has two balconies(阳台), which have
spectacular views!” Her mother said excitedly.
Heather could see that her mother was excited to move. “That sounds promising! Maybe I will like it there!”
she said to her mother, trying to sound cheerful. “I’m sure you will!” Her mother said.
Before Heather knew it, Sunday had come. Her packing was done, and so was her parents’. She looked
around. Her house was empty. It reminded her of the first time she stepped in it when she was about 5 years old.
The house was empty then, too. Nine years later, that moment repeated itself. She didn’t know why, but this
seemingly unimportant moment was very heart-touching for her. She smiled. Heather went to every room, saying
her goodbyes.
“Dear house, I have enjoyed our time here. But, now it’s time for me to leave. Don’t be sad! We might meet
someday, again. Let us both await it. I love you! You have made my life more special, with just your presence in it.
I hope you work that magic of yours on every future resident(住户)to live here. Goodbye!” She said to her
house.

The basic scientific method includes the steps scientists use and follow when trying to solve a problem or prove
or disprove a theory. The methods are used by scientists all over the world.
There are usually four steps which are a part of the scientific method. The steps can appear in any order, but the
first step is usually observation. An observation is the use of one or more of the five senses, which include seeing,
hearing, feeling, smelling, and tasting. The five senses are used to learn about or identify an event or object the
scientist wants to study. For example, while observing a spider, a scientist may observe the pattern or size of the
spider’s web.
The second step of the scientific method is the question being researched, the hypothesis. It is the question that
is turned into a statement about an event or object the scientist would like to research. A good hypothesis includes
three things: The explanation for the observations, it is able to be tested by other scientists, and it will usually predict
new outcomes or conclusions (结论). The scientist observing the spider building the web may have a question about
the strength of the web. An example of the hypothesis might be: The larger the spider, the stronger the web. This
hypothesis includes the explanation for the observation. It can be tested, and new conclusions may be reached.
The third step of the scientific method is the experiment. An experiment is a test which will either challenge
or support the hypothesis. The hypothesis will then be true or false. Using the spider hypothesis, a scientist may
experiment by measuring spider webs in relation to a spider’s size. Often, even when a hypothesis is disproved, much
can still be learned during the experiment. For example, while measuring the strength of spider webs, the scientist
may discover something new about them.
The final step in the scientific method is the conclusion. The conclusion will either clearly support the hypothesis
or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written. If it does not support the hypothesis,
the scientist may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.
In the example, if the scientist proves that larger spiders build stronger webs, then that is the conclusion. If it was not
proven, the scientist may change the hypothesis to: The size of a spider does has no bearing on the strength of its
web.
The scientific method is used for simple experiments. Students may do in the classroom or difficult experiments
being done all over the world. The spider experiment may be done by any scientist in the world.
In summary, the scientific method includes the steps scientists use to solve a problem or to prove or disprove a
theory. There are four basic steps involved with the scientific method. The usual steps include observation,
第6页/共12页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司hypothesis, experiment, and conclusion. The steps may not always be completed in the same order. Following the
four steps, the results of the experiment will either support the hypothesis or will not support the hypothesis. Scientists
are always free to change or write a new hypothesis and start the four steps all over again. The scientific method is
used for simple experiments or for more difficult experiments.
27. Which of the steps in the scientific method would a scientist use for seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling, and
tasting?
A. Conclusion. B. Observation. C. Experiment. D. Hypothesis.
28. According to Paragraph 4, which of the following statements is true?
A. Spiders and their webs are supplies in scientific experiments.
B. Measuring the size of spiders is the first step of the experiment.
C. Scientists are likely to discover something new from disproved hypothesis.
D. Hypothesis plays an important role in performing the experiment.
29. The underlined word “bearing” in Paragraph 5 probably means ________.
A. relation B. direction C. agreement D. condition
30. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Scientific method should be used in fixed order for experiments.
B. Observation can help scientists get ready for new conclusion.
C. Experiments are performed in order to prove the hypothesis is right.
D. Conclusion includes the results of the experiment or new hypothesis.
D
Why the Best Things in Life are All Backwards
There’s a part of Navy SEAL training called “drown-proofing” (抗溺水训练) where they bind your hands behind
your back, tie your feet together, and dump you into a 9-foot-deep pool. Your job is to survive for five minutes.
Most people who try drown-proofing fail. Many of them panic and scream. But some make it. And they do so
because they understand a counterintuitive (违反直觉的) lesson: the more you struggle to keep your head above
water, the more likely you are to sink (下沉).
With your arms and legs bound, it’s impossible to keep yourself at the surface for the full five minutes. Even
worse, your limited efforts to keep your body afloat will only cause you to sink faster. The trick to drown-proofing is
to actually let yourself sink to the bottom of the pool. From there, you lightly push yourself off the pool floor and
carry you back to the surface. Once there, you can have a quick breath of air and start the whole process over again.
Strangely, surviving drown-proofing requires no superhuman strength. It doesn’t even require that you know
how to swim. However, it requires the ability to not swim. This skill—the ability to let go of control when one wants it
第7页/共12页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司most—is one of the most important skills anyone can develop. And not just for SEAL training. For life.
Most people suppose the relationship between effort and reward (回报、奖励) is one-to-one. We think that
working twice as long will produce twice the results.
This is almost never true. Most of the world does not exist on a linear curve. Linear relationships only work for
mindless or repetitive tasks—driving a car, filling out paperwork, cleaning the bathroom, etc. In all of these cases,
doing something for two hours will double the output of doing it for one hour. But that’s simply because they require
no thought or creativity.
Most activities in life do not operate along the linear effort/reward curve because most activities in life are not
basic nor mindless. Most activities are complex (复杂的), mentally or emotionally involved. Therefore, most activities
produce a diminishing returns curve.
Diminishing returns means that the more you experience something, the less rewarding it becomes. The classic
example is money. The difference between earning $20,000 and $40,000 is life-changing. The difference between
$120,000 and $140,000 means your car has nicer seat heaters. The difference between earning $127,020,000 and
$127,040,000 is basically nothing.
Friendship has diminishing returns, as does eating, sleeping, working out at the gym, reading books, studying
for an exam—the examples are endless.
But there’s another curve, the inverted curve, where effort and reward have a negative relation—the more effort
you put into doing something, the more you will fail to do it.
Drown-proofing exists on an inverted curve. The more effort you put into rising to the surface, the more likely
you will be to fail at it.
第8页/共12页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司Few things in life work on an inverted curve. But the few things that do are important. In fact, the most important
experiences and goals in life all exist on an inverted curve.
Going after happiness takes you further away from it. The longing for greater freedom is often what causes us
to feel stuck and trapped. The need to be loved and accepted prevents us from loving and accepting ourselves.
The harder we try to do something, the less we shall succeed. This is “The Backwards Law”: desiring a positive
experience is itself a negative experience; accepting a negative experience is a positive experience. The goal is to
take your mind and teach it to stop chasing its own tail. To stop chasing meaning, freedom and happiness because
those only serve to move it further away from itself. To show it how the only way to reach the surface is by letting
itself sink.
You lean into the fear and uncertainty, and just when you think you’re going to drown, just as you reach the
bottom, it will launch you back to your salvation (拯救).
31. The key to survive drown-proofing is to ________.
A. sink down and lift up B. have enough practice
C. hold your breath for long D. move smartly underwater
32. What can we know about the three curves?
A. Linear curve shows the possibility of success.
B. Diminishing returns tells us the less the better.
C. Inverted curve works when we have spiritual needs.
D. There is no direct link between the action and the result.
33. According to the three curves, which application is probably true?
A. The more friends we have, the happier we will feel.
B. Cleaning works better in the first hour than the second.
C. Confidence increases when we try, and then stops increasing.
D. The more we want respect from others, the less they will respect us.
34. The writer suggests that we should ________.
A. build mind power to live better
B. shape values for positive outcomes

四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共8分,每小题2分)
When kids pretend (扮演) they’re princesses or super heroes, or create their own characters using dolls or Lego
figures, it seems like they’re playing simple games. But what’s going on when kids use their imaginations and pretend
when they play is actually very complex, and very good for kids’ development.
The power of kids’ imaginations is a fantastic thing. All they need is some time, space, and your encouragement,
and they can be anything and go anywhere, just by pretending. They make up stories and adventures and create whole
worlds without even thinking about it—this is creativity in its purest (纯粹的) form.
Pretend play allows kids to think about what they experience in the world around them and re-create social
relationships through play. Kids make sense of the world and copy the social interactions they see around them
through imaginative play with friends, siblings, parents, and even stuffed animals. Kids will share with a teddy bear,
give them a check-up, praise them for sharing, or make them some tea at a tea party. It’s not only adorable, but it’s a
great way for kids to put into practice the interpersonal skills.
It encourages cooperation (合作) and problem solving. If your children and their friends want to be the same
princess when they play, they may decide to take turns. Or your children may learn to play a game their older brother
wants to play in exchange for a promise that they’ll play their game the next time.
When putting the suggestions below into practice, it can help to encourage pretend play.
Let kids play alone. When kids play alone, they can create their own games and let their imaginations lead
them.
Let them lead. When you pretend-play with kids, try not to guide them. If they ask you for help or for ideas, you
can suggest prompts (提示). But as a general rule, let your child take the lead and figure out what and how you’ll
play.
Encourage them when they don’t follow instructions and use toys in new and creative ways. Sure, it’s fun to
build the truck or building according to the instruction manual that comes with the Lego. But it’s great when kids
decide to mix and match parts from different sets to create their own designs. Let your child know you love their
creations and ideas.
