你说什么。
考查交际用语。How come为什么；Why not为什么不；So what那又怎样；Pardon me请再说一次。根据“I

字未提。因此我们只能靠自己解决这个问题。

三、完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Have you seen people who take pictures of food for more than 10 minutes before eating? How about those who
beautify their selfie (自拍) so much that you can’t even 36 who they are? There must be one or more who
exit in your social media. No matter 37 they choose to share, they share the best but the most unreal.
My friend Chen is such an example. Every time we went to a restaurant, she would not take a 38 until
all the dishes we 39 were on the table. Then, she would spend five minutes in 40 the dishes in a
seemingly random (随意的) but in fact arranged order. Then the most 41 part: taking pictures. After that,
she would choose one of the 42 and click the filter (滤镜) app. The food eventually looked 10 times more
delicious than it really was, but we had no 43 to really enjoy it—it all went cold. Actually, Chen’s real life
is much less wonderful. For example, she hates to wash the dishes, so she 44 them in the sink for days.
Many people care too much about others’ opinions and try too hard to 45 others. They find it hard to
be 46 and to accept themselves, and so they are afraid to show their 47 life on social media.
What they are trying to prove is exactly what they lack in reality. But this will not bring any change to reality, as
they 48 follow the same old pattern of life.
If they really want a wonderful life, they should put more effort into achieving it 49 fabricating (伪
造) it. Being more confident, accepting themselves and trying their best to be better are much more meaningful

(难民) family.” Deka said. “It was as if I was only allowed to explore in this predetermined box.”
After a high school chemistry class inspired her to think about a career in science and gave her confidence in
the field. Deka learned to live outside labels and began making big plans for her future. Now she is about to begin
her freshman year at the University of California, planning to become a professor.
Born and raised in San Diego’s City Heights neighborhood, Deka is the daughter of a Somali refugee couple.
While some might say Deka’s success happened in spite of her background, she would say differently, that her
experiences shaped her and inspired her to be the driven, young scientist that she is today.
When Deka was eight years old, her mother got a job by studying hard back in school in order to support the
公众号：初中英语助手whole family. That made Deka realize that education could make a difference to one’s life. She spent a lot of time
in the library reading books, and didn’t do many of the things her peers did, like partying or having romantic
relationships.
“I always felt like I had to be the perfect girl for my family.” Deka said. “You have to not even do your best but
two times better than everyone else. I felt like the whole world was waiting for me to mess up. ”
Deka’s efforts paid off. The summer before her senior year of high school, she was accepted to the American
Chemical Society Project SEED Programme. “She brought both enthusiasm and focus.” Botham, a researcher at
this research institute, recalled. “She arrived every day ready to work, ready to learn and ready to tackle new
challenges regardless of whether or not she had done anything similar.” When asked what advice she would give to
others like her, Deka warned them not to look down upon themselves. “Don’t tell yourself that the scholarship is
too big or this programme is too competitive or I’ll never get into this school,” she said. “I was not sure whether I
could make it until I started seeing the acceptance letters rolling in.”
