One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him. Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.
By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could - he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.
The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. Having been stuck in the snow for two days, Nicholas was saved.
Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.
【1】What caused Nicholas to get lost at the mountain?
A.Having no guides to help.
B.Forgetting the way back.
C.Terrible weather.
D.Poor eyesight.
【2】How did Nicholas keep himself warm?
A.He built a snow cave.
B.He found a shelter.
C.He kept on skiing.
D.He made a fire.
【3】Why was Gryll’s show mentioned?
A.It was Nicholas’ favorite TV program.
B.It taught Nicholas useful knowledge.
C.Nicholas shared his story on the show.
D.Gryll asked Nicholas to make a TV interview.
【4】Which of the following may best describe Nicholas?
A.Calm and brave. B.Responsible and curious.
C.Lucky and smart. D.Confident and outgoing.

There are many ways to travel within a city. We can walk, cycle, or take a bus. But no matter which way we travel, we have to stick to the route(线路) the city planners laid down for us.
Parkour practitioners (跑酷爱好者), however, see the city in a completely different way. To them, there are no fixed routes. There are no walls and no stairs—since they jump, climb, roll and crawl to move across, through, over and under anything that they find in their path. The city is their playground.
The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) has noticed that this activity is drawing more and more people to it—there are 100,000 people taking part in parkour today in the UK alone, according to the Guardian—and how it is helpful for people to be much stronger: It trains coordination and balance. So the organization is thinking about recognizing parkour as a new sport and adding it to the Olympics by 2024.
But parkour practitioners themselves don’t seem to be happy with the idea. They see parkour as “a lifestyle”, wrote the website NextSportStar. “It’s a competition against the conditions rather than just a sport.”
Indeed, many do parkour just to “escape the daily routine and experience the city in different ways”, wrote reporter Oli Mould on The Conversation. They see parkour as a way to express themselves through relaxing moves and creative routes while freeing themselves from the pressure.
It’s great that the FIG wants to develop new sport and stay close to a new cultural form. But it would be greater if they knew that not everything in life is a competition.
【1】How do the parkour practitioners do parkour?
A.They move on as they wish. B.They plan the way themselves.
C.They run faster than others. D.They stick to certain routes.
【2】Why does the FIG want to add parkour to the Olympics?
A.It’s a special way of life. B.It draws their attention.
C.It’s good for people to keep healthy. D.It needs some rules and instructions.
【3】What is the author’s idea on parkour?
A.It is more formal than other sports. B.It helps people to be creative.
C.It’s worth adding to the sporting event. D.It calls on people to work as a team.
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A.A new sports competition B.Parkour practitioners
C.Training in a different way D.Making the city their own

What is success? I am not going to try to explain success. I think a precise meaning is impossible! Is it winning a Gold Medal at the Olympic Games or winning Wimbledon, or being awarded a Nobel Prize? What else? I believe personal success could be anything at all- it does not have to involve public recognition. Who is more successful? A millionaire who is unhappy, or an unnoticed person, who has led a simple, quiet, sincere and happy life? The simplest definition of success, I think, is “to set out to do something and to succeed in doing it.
The first step on the road to success starts with belief. Believe you can succeed and you will. Achieving success in whatever endeavor(努力)you choose may be the goal of life; because it gives you freedom from worry. Could that be?
Success means different things to every one of us. Some people believe it is measured in financial term; others believe it is helping others rather than helping themselves. However, most people are motivated to a great extend by public recognition. How many people are really happy? How many people are really doing what they want to with their lives? Incidentally, to imagine makes us different from animals.
Most important of all, I believe success is a matter of personal growth. If every day you are developing or growing just a millimeter, I believe one is successful. Just being a slightly better person each day for me is success. I’ve got a very long way to go them!
Finally, always remember success is a process and is not simply a matter of arriving at a destination. It’s the journey that really matters. Success is what you become in the often very difficult and dangerous journey down the river of life.
【1】What is personal success according to the author?
A. Winning public recognition
B. Being an unhappy millionaire
C. Something impossible to define simply
D. Succeeding in doing what you want
【2】Which plays an important role in your success?
A. Intelligence B. Confidence
C. Wealth D. Kindness
【3】According to he text, humans are different from animals in_______.
A. belief B. freedom
C. imagination D. success
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A. What is success B. No true success
C. How to be successful D. Success is reaching a destination

Some people feel they don’t have time to volunteer, seeing it as an activity that only benefits others. 【1】 This is how volunteering can change your own life.
★When you volunteer, you are making a direct influence on the people affected by volunteering, but the impact goes far beyond the fact that you are helping people. When you volunteer, you provide connection for others and yourself. 【2】
★Volunteering helps learn new skills to improve your career outlook. It might be discovering how to use one program well. 【3】 Whatever volunteer experience you gain, there will be many chances to learn new practical, social and communication skills. They will help you grow as a human being.
★【4】 Volunteering provides you with a chance to get to know like-minded people. If you have a volunteer job that you both care deeply about, it’s likely that you meet those who have a lot in common as well. Whatever your passions and interests are, you can likely find a volunteer organization where you’ll be able to find your friends.
With these positive reasons to volunteer, it’s almost a form of self-care. 【5】 Find an organization involved in something you are crazy about and sign up as a volunteer. You never know just how much it will benefit you in the long term.
A. So what are you waiting for?
B. However, it can have a huge influence on yourself as well.
C. When you volunteer, you easily make friends with other volunteers.
D. Good connection with others is the most necessary thing all people need.
E. Studies show lasting happiness and lower sadness rates among volunteers.

G. It can also be a chance to practice your second language skills with native speakers.

The use of chopsticks has been【1】big part of Chinese food culture for centuries.
When cooking food or picking it up, a pair of chopsticks always comes for use.
So how did chopsticks come into being? It’s said that a leader of ancient China, Dayu, 【2】 helped his people fight floods, invented them. In those days, people 【3】(eat) only with their hands. But Dayu was busy 【4】 (prepare) for flood control work and often had his meals in the wild. In the summer【5】 particular, he hurried to deal with unexpected accidents and didn’t want to wait to eat. The meat 【6】(cook) in the pot was too hot to pick up with his hands. So one day Dayu picked up some twigs(细枝)【7】(help) him hold the meat. Then the twigs【8】(final) became the chopsticks we know today.
But of course, this is just a story. The【9】(early) chopsticks archaeologists(考古学家) have found so far are more than 3,000 years old, dating back to the Shang Dynasty. The six bronze chopsticks were found in Yinxu, one of China’s oldest archaeological【10】(place), in Anyang, Henan province.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
My father asked me to chat with him for a while. Actually, I was unwilling to listen to his talking endlessly as he always did. My father was a lawyer, but I never wanted to go to law school or follow his path through life.
As was expected, he cleared his throat and started to say, “Er... What... What do you really want to do in the gorgeous future?”
I was silent for a moment playing with the cell phone. I kept thinking, “Should I tell him my true thoughts? What if he gets angry? What if I let him down?” later I replied, “Well, I want to be a writer.”
I guessed this may be not the answer he would expect. But surprisingly, “Interesting idea!” he answered. I was shocked, speaking in a low voice with hesitation.
“Are you serious, dad?”
“Well, you need confidence and good preparations, and you still have plenty of time. You need to find out what you really enjoy now. Look, it’s late. Let’s take the boat out tomorrow morning, just you and me. Maybe we can catch some crabs (螃蟹) for dinner, and we can talk more.”
Early next morning we packed up the equipment and set off along the coast. We didn’t talk much, but enjoyed the sound of the seabirds and the sight of the coastline.
There were no big waves and blinding sunlight at that time. “Let’s see if we get lucky,” he said, picked up a web basket with a rope tied and threw it into the sea. We waited a while, then my father stood up and said, “Give me a hand with this,” and we pulled up the crab cage onto the deck.
To our joy, the cage was filled with dozens of soft shell crabs. Squatting (蹲) down, we watched them for a moment. At first they fought against each other to climb out hard, trying to escape. Many were pulled back into the cage. Later, some gave up, but there are still some crabs trying to escape again and again.
