三、阅读理解
I was shopping in Whole Foods Market when my cellphone rang. My daughter Julianna told me that she got the
job she had applied for. She had just turned 14 and decided to spend this summer vacation on work. The things she
wants are both long-term and immediate. She wants to freely buy things from Forever21 and save money for the
famous college she’s decided to get into.
Several weeks before her birthday, Julianna asked me whether I’d allow her to work. Some of her friends’parents
wouldn’t let their kids work, wanting them to focus on their studies and enjoy the last childhood freedom for as long
as possible. I understood those parents. But I wanted her to spend less time on her electronic devices in her room
and more time in the outside world.
The day after her birthday, Julianna immediately applied to an amusement park, which hires teens during busy
summer months. I’d never seen Julianna so active. The day before the interview, we went over possible questions,
including why she wanted to work at the amusement park, its most famous attraction, and what her previous work
and volunteering experiences were. She seldom talked about anything else until the interview was over.
I never worked as a young teen. My husband, though, worked as a young teen at an amusement park. He
shared some funny stories about his time working there. More importantly, the work contributed to his strong work
ethic (道德准则) today. Studies also show that work can contribute to healthy development and that teens who work
at times are more likely to attend four-year colleges and get degrees quickly.
Julianna used to be so careful about new experiences, but now she is doing something new. I realize it’s time
to put aside my doubts and worries and believe she can learn the skills she needs to take care of herself.

A．She could do better in her studies.

William Butler Yeats, was an Irish poet and dramatist and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century
literature. He was born in Dublin on June 13,1865, His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a
happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In
fact, he inherited excellent taste in art from his family—both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally
settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry.
Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish
national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments however were not received favorably at the
beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.
Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes
love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern
sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide
recognition.
Yeats is considered one of the few writers whose greatest works were completed after being awarded the
Nobel Prize, which he won in 1923. He continued writing almost to the end of his life, producing his greatest works
between the ages of 50 and 75. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor
poet, as there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between these ages.
Such works include The Tower (1928) and The Winding Stair and Other Poems (1929).
After suffering from a variety of illnesses for several years, Yeats died in Menton, 1939. The last poem he
wrote was the The Black Tower. After Yeats’s death, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the falling liners:
Earth, receive an honoured guest:
William Yeats is laid to rest.
Let the Irish vessel (船) lie
Emptied of its poetry.

Some of the benefits of social media are unquestionable, such as the abilities to quickly connect with long-
lost friends and keep in touch with family members from afar. However, according to a study conducted by the
photo-sharing app Flashgap, millennials (千禧一代) are so addicted to social media that their real-time relationships
are affected. The results have been confirmed by later studies.
The study found that 87% of millennials are so busy surfing the Internet that they have completely missed
out on face-to-face conversations. 54% worry that they will be left out if they don’t check theInternet quite often.
And 76% of females check their social media accounts at least 10 times while socializing with their friends.
A study conducted this year shows that 42% of those who use social media admit to feeling jealous (妒忌的)
when their blog posts don’t receive as many “likes” as their friends’. Posts and reactions to them can also make
people feel less confident. Earlier this year, a number of millennials came together and discussed the influence of
social media on their lives. Tedi Gilmartin, one of them, reported feeling really sad about her life because she saw
her friends travelling and thought she should be doing that too.
But for all the negative effects on people’s emotional well-being and relationships, there are some benefits.
Gesell, for one, found that visiting social media sites inspired him to lose weight.
初中产品 四季体系：暑假—秋季—寒假—春季 5All in all, different people have different views about social media. Some think they’re able to communicate
with more people now than ever. Others think even with emojis, posts cannot convey some subtle (微妙的) ge stural
clues that can be found in face-to-face conversations. These misunderstandings can lead to negative reactions and
even the end of some relationships. There is obviously a healthy balance, but as social media takes over more and
more of our lives, its more negative effects may appear.

C．Recording interesting stories during journeys.

Do you often drink fruit juice and think it is good for your health? However, a recent study published in a US
medical journal（期刊）shows that drinking too much juice—even 100-percent natural fruit juice—will increase
your risk of early death. 41
According to scientists, drinking too much fruit juice is just like drinking too much soda（汽水）—they both
have a lot of sugar Taking in too much sugar can cause many health problems, such as weight problems, heart
disease（病）and so on. Some people might say there are also vitamins（维生素）in fruit juice. 42
In the study. “sugary drinks” were defined（定义）to include both sugar-sweetened（添加糖的）drinks like
soda and 100-percent natural fruit juice. Scientists found that if people get 10-percent or more of their energy from
sugary drinks every day, they will be 44-percent more likely to die from heart disease. 43
As Jean Welsh, one of the researchers in the study, told CNN, “Sugary drinks, whether soft drinks or fruit
juice, should be limited（限制）.” 44 In this way, fewer people will buy sugary drinks because of their
higher prices.
But how much is acceptable? Here are the suggestions from scientists. 45 Adults and children older
than 6 should not drink more than 230 ml every day.
A．Also, they are 14-percent more likely to die from other diseases.
B．That is why some cities in the US have increased prices of sugary drinks.
C．This is mainly because these drinks have a lot of sugar.
D．Kids between I and 6 years old should drink less than 170 ml of fruit juice every day.
E．But the amount is too small to make up for the harm that these drinks do.
