Perhaps its time to consider signing up for an activity. Here are some for young teenagers to participate in after school. MUSIC AND ARTS For your child, growing into a young adult may be all about changes. They may start to feel awkward while expressing new tastes and styles. Luckily, music and arts offer great outlets to help channel their energy and frustrations in a creative method. Not to mention, they both strengthen creative thinking and math skills which can help build on all their subjects. SPORTS Participating in sports is much more than just losing weight. For most teens, there are plenty of sports-based activities for boys and girls after school. With sports programs, there are plenty of chances for teens to work together while building strength and leadership skills in co-operation. If your teenagers school doesnt offer school clubs, you can always try the local parks and recreation department activities. TUTOR OR OTHER AFTER-SCHOOL JOBS Whats better than learning in school? Helping other students learn. If your kid has a good command of certain school subjects, it may be a great choice for them to help tutor younger students in their off time, getting some income. If tutoring is not your childs strong suit, consider helping them apply for an after- school job. These jobs help teens learn real world skills and they look great on college applications. VOLUNTEER WORK Volunteer work is constantly on the rise with plenty of chances for your teen to get involved. Working on volunteer projects will not only give your child a positive sense of accomplishment but also provide beneficial experiences for your kids college application to help the approval process. From packing food at the local food storage to walking animals at a local animal center, there are always chances, no matter what your childs interests are. Check with your local town hall for more chances for your teen to participate in. 1. What is special about “music and arts”? A. They make teens start to feel awkward. B.

But by night, he is a real-life superhero, doing heroic things, like feeding the homeless. Wearing a Spider-Man suit to anonymously deliver sandwiches to those in need, he is well-known as the Birmingham SpiderMan, and hopes that his work will show others that everyone deserves a helping hand-no matter their situation. The young man began doing charitable work years ago, but started his nighttime routine about 3 months ago. At about 9 p. m. every evening, he purchases sandwiches with his own money and then walks-like a comic book hero-to an alley where he can quietly slip into his “uniform.” He then continues to walk 6 streets handing out sandwiches to the hungry and homeless. While wearing a superhero costume might just seem like a “fun” idea, he says that it actually draws attention to the cause. “Before when I was handing out food, no one would take a second look,” he said. “But when they see SpiderMan handing out the food they come over and ask what Im doing and are really interested. Most importantly they become inspired to get involved themselves and start to do the charitable work.” The anonymous mans deeds have already gained support from around the Birmingham community, inspiring some of its members to offer money. But the do-gooder does not accept cash donations-instead he urges them to get out and get involved as well. He is certainly an inspiring example of how one can “Be the Change” they wish to see in the world. 4. Which is true about this young man? A. He is well-known for being a waiter. B. He plays the role of Spider-Man for a show. C. He devotes himself to helping needy people. D. He makes a living by delivering sandwiches. 5. How is paragraph 2 developed? A. By comparison. B. By offering data. C. By giving examples. D. By giving descriptions. 6. Why is this young man dressed as a SpiderMan? A. To look like a real-life superhero. B. To entertain the homeless people. C. To attract peoples attention to charity. D. To get himself involved in charitable work. 7. Which words can best describe this young man? A. Greedy and funny. B. Caring and selfless. C. Devoted and wealthy. D. Positive and objective. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。一位二十岁的年轻人每天晚上都穿着蝙蝠侠的衣服给饥饿和无家可归的人分 发三明治。文章对此进行了报道。 【4 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“But by night, he is a real-life superhero, doing heroic things, like feeding the homeless.”(但到了晚上，他是一个现实生活中的超级英雄，做着英雄般的事情，比 如给无家可归的人食物。)可知，他致力于帮助有需要的人。故选 C。 【5 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句到最后“At about 9 p. m. every evening, he purchases sandwiches with his own money and then walks-like a comic book hero-to an alley where he can quietly slip into his “uniform.” He then continues to walk 6 streets handing out sandwiches to the hungry and homeless.”(每天晚上 9 点左右，他用自己的钱买三明治，然后像一个漫画英雄一样走到一 条小巷，在那里他可以悄悄地穿上自己的“制服” ，然后继续走 6 条街，向饥饿和无家可归的人分发三明 治。)可知，第二段描写了他每天晚上的行为，所以第二段是通过描写来发展的。故选 D。 【6 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“While wearing a superhero costume might just seem like a “fun” idea, he says that it actually draws attention to the cause.”(虽然穿上超级英雄的服 装似乎只是一个“有趣”的想法，但他说，这实际上会引起人们对原因的关注。)和最后一句“Most importantly they become inspired to get involved themselves and start to do the charitable work.”(最重要的是，他们受到鼓舞，开始参与慈善事业。)可知，这个年轻人打扮成蜘蛛侠以吸引人们 对慈善事业的关注。故选 C。 【7 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“During the day, this 20-year-old man from Birmingham, England, who wishes to remain anonymous (匿名的), is a waiter.”(白天，这名来自英国伯明翰的 20 岁男子 希望匿名，他是一名服务员。)可知，做好事不留名，这位年轻人是一个无私的人。根据第一段第二句 “But by night, he is a real-life superhero, doing heroic things, like feeding the homeless.”(但到了晚上，他是一个现实生活中的超级英雄，做着英雄般的事情，比如给无家可归的人提 供食物。)可知，这位年轻人很有爱心。故选 B。 C CHICAGO, Illinois - Students shouted, hugged and cried tears of joy recently as they played with certified therapy dogs (获得认证的治疗犬) at Lane Tech College Prep, an activity designed as a break from the demands of preparing for final exams. This is the second year the dogs and volunteers have been brought into the school from Chicago-based Canine Therapy Corps to provide much-needed relief for stressed or anxious kids. “Its stressful around finals time,” Assistant Principal Sarah Hanly said, adding that this week students are turning in final projects, reviewing and studying for next weeks exams. It seemed to do the trick. Shouts and cheers went up from a group of students as they met Waffles, an 85-pound dog, and rushed to put their hands on his fur. Junior Sophie Cohen sat next to Waffles, petting him and chatting with her friends and Waffles owner. She said she had just been talking to her friend about how stressed out she was over finals. “Just the idea of having a dog in school is good because the school environment is just about stress,” she said. “And then here is this dog. You get a break.” Monica Synecky, Waffles owner and a volunteer with Canine Therapy Corps, said she often takes her dog to visit high school students around finals time. “This age group benefits really well from just the presence of Waffles or other certified therapy dogs,” she said. Therapy dogs must be properly trained and pass a test before they become certified, said Ann Davidson, operations manager at Canine Therapy Corps. “Taking breaks is one of several tools students can use to manage stress or anxiety,” said Jacqueline Rhew, a registered clinical professional consultant. Rhew also said, “Trained dogs help students put academic stress into perspective.” When students dont properly manage stress, it can turn into troubling anxiety. Juniors Jennifer Giraldo and Anastasia Ramirez hugged and laughed as they took turns with their classmates, giving Luna, a Portuguese water dog, commands to sit, lie down and roll over. “I was stressing all third and fourth periods, and then people were talking about the dogs,” said Ramirez, who decided to wait in line with Giraldo to see the dogs herself. “Now I feel better.” 8. How did the students feel when they met the dogs? A. Calm. B. Sad. C. Excited D. Tired 9. What do we know about Monica Synecky? A. She suffered great pressure in school. B. She was glad that Waffles could help. C. She was a registered clinical consultant. D. She founded Canine Therapy Corps. 10. What might Rhew agree on? A. Indoor cats can greatly reduce students stress. B. Students stress is gradually disappearing. C. Students can handle stress with different tools. D. Dogs help students shoulder responsibility. 11. Whats the main idea of the passage? A. Therapy dogs ease students stress before exams. B. Therapy dogs improve students mental health. C. Therapy dogs prepare students for challenges. D. Therapy dogs work as volunteers in school. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11.

Put the phone away for an hour. Or, better yet, make it 24 hours-you might just get $2, 400 out of it. RVW, a company that tests home services and products, is holding a 24-hour digital detox (脱瘾) challenge. Theyll pay their chosen challengers, who are “definitely into tech”, over 2000 to survive a whole day without screens. The challenge is not as easy as it sounds. Those selected for the challenge will not only have to swear off their phones for the day, but television, gaming, computers, smart watches and smart home devices are also off-limits. However, the company clarifies, microwaves are still okay. The challengers will receive safes to store their electronics in for the 24 hours, along with a $200 supermarket gift card to purchase a tech-free “survival kit,” the company wrote. Some survival kit suggestions from the company include a typewriter to replace computers, writing paper to replace texts, and paints and brushes to replace the fine art of the selfie. Challengers will have to review the survival kit and give feedback (反馈) on the experience after completing the challenge. Screen time is a growing health risk. The companys challenge comes at a time when “screen time” has taken on new meaning. Nowadays, many people are forced to work remotely and students to study online, making screens more of a necessity than ever before. According to a 2019 report, US teens were spending an average of more than seven hours per day on screen media for entertainment alone. “We have a feeling someone out there needs a break,” the company wrote. To apply, the company requests a bit of personal information and a 100-word question about why youre right for the challenge. Applications will be open until June 26 and winners will be announced on the companys website on June 29. 12. According to the company, who will be chosen as the ideal challenger? A. Thomas, who is an expert in home services. B. Julie, who is a fan of printed newspaper. C. Jackson, who is heavily in debt. D. Antonia, who is addicted to online games. 13. The underlined words “off-limits” can be replaced by _. A. broken B. forbidden C. limitless D. useless 14. What can be inferred about the survival kit? A. It is one of the companys products. B. It doesnt involve electronics. C. It is specially designed for artists. D. It is used to review the experience. 15. Why did the company hold the challenge? A. To advocate spending less time on screens. B. To pay people to work or study offline forever. C. To make people realize the necessity of screens. D. To draw peoples attention to health risks. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述 RVW，一家测试家庭服务和产品的公司，正在举行一个 24 小时 数字脱瘾挑战，他们选中的“绝对热衷于科技”的挑战者支付超过 2000 美元，以维持一整天没有屏幕的 生存，是为了提倡减少使用屏幕的时间。 【12 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Theyll pay their chosen challengers, who are “definitely into tech”, over 2000 to survive a whole day without screens. ”（ 他们将向他们选中的“绝对热衷 于科技”的挑战者支付超过 2000 美元，以维持一整天没有屏幕的生存。 ）和第三段“Those selected for the challenge will not only have to swear off their phones for the day, but television, gaming, computers, smart watches and smart home devices are also off-limits. ”（ 被选中参加 挑战的人不仅要在当天关掉手机，而且电视、游戏、电脑、智能手表和智能家居设备都不能使用。 ）由此 可知，理想的挑战者不能使用电子产品，故对网络游戏成瘾的挑战者最合适，故选 D。 【13 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“Those selected for the challenge will not only have to swear off their phones for the day, but television, gaming, computers, smart watches and smart home devices are also off-limits.”中的 not onlybut可知是并列句，那么前半句意思是“被选中参加 挑战的人不仅要在当天关掉手机” ，后面可推知而且也不能使用电视、游戏、电脑、智能手表和智能家居 设备，故猜测 off-limits 意为“禁止” ，同“forbidden”同义，故选 B。 【14 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The challengers will receive safes to store their electronics in for the 24 hours, along with a $200 supermarket gift card to purchase a tech-free “survival kit,” the company wrote. Some survival kit suggestions from the company include a typewriter to replace computers, writing paper to replace texts, and paints and brushes to replace the fine art of the selfie. ”（ 该公司写道，挑战者将收到一个保险柜，可以在里面存放 24 小时的电子产品，还有一张价值 200 美元的超市礼品卡，可以购买无科技产品的“生存工具包” 。该公司 提出了一些生存工具的建议，包括用打字机代替电脑，用信纸代替文本，用画笔代替自拍艺术。 ）由此可 推断，生存工具包不会包括电子产品，故选 B。 【15 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Screen time is a growing health risk. The companys challenge comes at a time when “screen time” has taken on new meaning. Nowadays, many people are forced to work remotely and students to study online, making screens more of a necessity than ever before. According to a 2019 report, US teens were spending an average of more than seven hours per day on screen media for entertainment alone. “We have a feeling someone out there needs a break,” the company wrote. ”（屏幕时间是一个日益增长的健康风险。该公司面临挑战之际， “屏幕时间”已被赋予了新的含义。如今，许多人被迫远程工作，学生在网上学习，使屏幕比以往任何时 候都更有必要。根据 2019 年的一份报告，美国青少年平均每天花在屏幕媒体上的娱乐时间超过 7 小时。 “我们觉得有人需要休息一下， ”该公司写道。 ）由此可知，这家公司举办这次挑战是因为意识到了人们使 用屏幕的时间太多，存在健康风险，所以举办这次挑战的目的应该是为了提倡减少使用屏幕的时间。故选 A。 第二节 (共 5 小题；每小题 2. 5 分, 满分 12. 5 分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后选项选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Does the topic of saving money make you feel a little guilty?
