【題目】 Anxiety is a feeling of uneasiness and worry. Anxiety can show up in a lot of ways. For example, trouble concentrating(專心), an upset stomach or sleeplessness. And anxiety can be one of the most serious challenges that students face today. Yet, it can also be one of the most hidden and unknown.

Perhaps you've seen the increase in anxiety in your classroom and school, maybe around testing seasons, or even your classmates experiencing hurt. You know anxiety is more than just“worries”. Anxiety can influence classroom performance just as much as any other learning disability.

According to the Child Mind Institute, health-care providers have seen a 17 percent increase of anxiety in children over the past 10 years. But there aren't many more students seeking help and care. In fact, less than one percent of students will seek anxiety treatment.

Students who are worried and anxious aren't doing it on purpose. The nervous system acts automatically(自動地), especially when it comes to worry. That's why phrases like "just relax" or "calm down" aren't helpful. But with practice, students can learn to slow down their anxious brains. Here are two helpful suggestions.

Firstly, practice deep breaths. When people slow down their breathing, they slow down their brain. Slow, deep breaths are the key. It works every time.

Secondly, take a break and go outside. Being out in nature can also calm an anxious brain. Sometimes just a change of scenery is what makes the difference. Breathing the cool air or making time to notice singing birds can also calm an overactive worrier. As students, you can observe the environment carefully. How many different kinds of trees do you see? How many different bird songs do you hear? How many different colors are in the grass? That can help you turn the focus away from your worries.

Don't set anxiety up as something you want to get rid of. It's a part of your life, and it will not go away completely. What you should do is to face it bravely and learn to deal with it.

1According to the writer, __________ can help students turn the focus away from their worries.

A.getting hurtB.going to the park

C.having a testD.having less sleep

A.Half of the students want to have good anxiety treatment.

【題目】 Texting(發(fā)信息) while driving is against the law in 47 states. But what about texting while walking? A 2018 study reported that more than 2, 500 people in the US ended up in hospitals resulting from using a mobile device(設(shè)備) while walking.

Hawaii passed a law making it illegal(違法的) to text or look down at a mobile device while crossing the street, it is the first state with a law like this. Do people think more places should accept such a law? The LA Times did a survey. Here are some replies they received.

Rena Jose, 26, New York

Which is more important, texting or safety? If you are looking at your phone while walking, you might not see a car come or traffic lights turn red. It can be very dangerous. For example, in Japan, one person fell into a lake and another got her leg stuck in a hole, because both had their mind on their phone. We should make texting while crossing the street illegal in more cities.

Andy Selvam, 55, California

People do many things that cause injury to themselves but are not illegal, such as climbing mountains, driving cars, swimming and so on. People might get hurt from texting and walking if they're not paying attention. But I still think they should have a choice.

Bob Madigan, 45, Oregon

As humans, we can make our own decisions. I'm not saying it's safe, but we don't need the government to babysit us. If we want to learn to make smart decisions, the government needs to stop telling us what to do. After all, this is a free country.

Andrew Black, 34, Alaska

This law is a good idea—compare this protection with seat belts. If this law is passed all over the USA, people will be worried. But is there really a way to please everyone? This would not be for fun. It would be safe and good for all Americans.

1The LA Times did the survey most probably to ________.

A.win the hearts of more readers

B.encourage more states to pass the law

C.ask readers if they agree with texting while driving

D.learn about people's opinions on texting while walking

2In Rena's reply, she showed the danger of texting while walking by ________.

A.using numbersB.giving examplesC.asking questionsD.telling stories

3Which of the following is Andrew Black's opinion?

A.Texting is more important than safety.B.The law would help to keep Americans safe.

C.It's easy to please everyone when passing a law.D.Whether to text or not while walking is people's own choice.

【題目】閱讀下面的材料,在空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容(1個單詞)或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。將答案填在答題紙的相應(yīng)位置。

Next time when you're in a public place, take a look around you. And count how many people 1(use) their phones. I can tell you now that it is2probable more than half, whether you're on a bus, in a cafe3simply walking down the street.

I'm not saying that I am not 4 example of this, but it always amazes (使驚訝) me how people can spend so much time on their phones without talking to others. Has it gone too far?

Recently, my smart phone broke and had to be sent off5 repair for a week or so. I had to use a really old basic phone just 6 (keep) me in touch with my family and friends. All I could do on this phone was to send text messages, make calls and play one game. And I loved it. I loved being from the Internet, and I really didn't mind not 7 haveupdates (更新) about what my friends were doing. It allowed 8 (I) to spend more time enjoy my time in London and watching the people around me and really see 9 was going on.

10, I knew that as soon as I got my smart phone back I would be one of those people once again. Perhaps I should just go back to using the basic phone and forget I ever got my smart phone back.

【題目】 A friend advised me not to choose Slovakia though he hadn't been there. Few guidebooks include the country.

However, I decided to take a trip to Eastern Slovakia. I always search for roads that are less traveled.

On the first day, I stayed in a hotel opposite a great church. Around the corner, there was a lively town center. Coffee shops were serving hot chocolate. The dumplings and snacks in restaurants were as delicious as any in Western Europe.

On the second day, I traveled to Spis Castle (城堡). It's about an hour's drive northwest of Kosice. Perhaps you've never heard of the name, but this is one of Central Europe's largest castles. Part of it was built in the 11th century. On the castle, I saw colorful fields, villages with red roofs (屋頂) and green hills. After that, I tried some local food there.

And the best was yet to come. Driving southeast, I arrived in Banska Stiavnica on the last day of my trip. It is a perfectly protected historical town. I went to a concert in a 15th-century church. At the town center, local people were celebrating a traditional festival. There were traditional shows and teaching of making dumplings. It was the most enjoyable moment of my trip.

Old towns, natural beauty, great castles and food—all at affordable prices and with no tourist crowds. Maybe it's time to rewrite the guidebooks.

1From the first paragraph, we may know Slovakia is ________.

A.easy to be found in guidebooksB.not very popular with tourists

C.the favourite place of the writer's friendD.not included in the world map

2On the first two days, the writer ________.

A.tried some local foodB.saw some castles with red roofs

C.stayed in the same hotelD.visited the largest European castle

3The best part of the writer's trip was ________.

A.in KosiceB.on the second dayC.joining in a festivalD.enjoying a concert

4What may the writer say to his friend after his trip to Slovakia?

A."Seeing is believing. You should go there with me."

B."Think twice before acting. You'd better not go there."

C."A man is never too old to learn. You should read more books."

D."Actions speak louder than words. You need write a guidebook yourself."

Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In f1, nearly 50% of pepole are shy, and almost 80% feel shy at some point (在某些時候) in their lives. W2 are people shy?

One reason is that family size might cause people to be shy. C3 with no brothers or sisters may be shy. Growing up alone, they often play by t4. They are not a5 to develop the same social skills as children from big families.

Another reason of shyness could be technology. As more and more people use the Internet, they s6 less time outside, talking to people. as a result, they lose practice at conversation. T7 to new people face to face can make them feel nervous.

For shy people, it can be d8 to make friends, speak in class, and get a good job. But scientists say you can get over (克服) shyness. They s9 trying new things and practicIng conversation.

Anyway, don’t be a10 of shyness—-you are valued for what you are!
