1阅读理解题
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The concept of "growth mindset" has become increasingly popular in education. It refers to the belief that one's abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. In contrast, a "fixed mindset" assumes that our character, intelligence, and creative ability are static givens which we can't change in any meaningful way.
Research by psychologist Carol Dweck and others has shown that students with a growth mindset tend to achieve more than those with a fixed mindset. This is because they worry less about looking smart and put more energy into learning. When they hit a setback, they see it as a chance to improve rather than evidence of unintelligence. Teachers can foster a growth mindset by praising effort and strategy, not just innate talent. For example, saying "You worked really hard on this" is more effective than "You're so smart."
However, simply telling students to "try harder" is not enough. The environment must support this belief. This includes providing challenging tasks that require effort, offering constructive feedback, and modeling a growth mindset themselves. When students see their teachers embracing challenges and learning from mistakes, they are more likely to adopt the same attitude.
The benefits extend beyond academics. A growth mindset can improve resilience in the face of life's challenges. It encourages a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. As Dweck writes, "Becoming is better than being." The fixed mindset does not allow people the luxury of becoming. They have to already be.
21. What is the main idea of the passage?
- A. The definition of growth mindset and its application in education.
- B. The difference between growth mindset and fixed mindset.
- C. The research findings of psychologist Carol Dweck.
- D. The importance of praising students' effort in class.
答案：A
解析：文章开篇定义了成长型思维，并围绕其在教育中的应用（如教师如何培养、环境支持等）展开论述。B、C、D项都只是文章的部分细节，不能概括全文主旨。易错点在于学生可能被细节选项迷惑，未能把握文章的整体结构。

- A. avoid challenges to protect their self-image
- B. see setbacks as opportunities to learn

答案：B
解析：根据第二段 "When they hit a setback, they see it as a chance to improve rather than evidence of unintelligence." 可知，具有成长型思维的学生将挫折视为改进的机会。A、C、D项描述的都是固定型思维的特点。易错点在于混淆两种思维模式的特征。

答案：Dear Chris,
I'm sorry to hear that you've been feeling stressed and anxious about your studies lately. It's completely normal to feel this way, especially when facing important exams. Please don't be too hard on yourself.
Here are a couple of suggestions that might help. First, try to create a balanced study schedule. Break your study time into shorter sessions with regular breaks in between. This can improve focus and reduce fatigue. Second, make sure to include some physical activity in your daily routine, like a short walk or some stretching exercises. Exercise is a great way to relieve stress and clear your mind.
Remember, it's important to take care of your mental health as well as your academic progress. I believe in your ability to overcome this challenge. Keep going, and don't hesitate to talk to your teachers or parents if you need more support.
Wishing you all the best.
Yours,
Li Hua

8读后续写题
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The old bike had been sitting in the garage for years, gathering dust. It was a sturdy, blue bicycle with a basket on the front, a relic from my childhood. One Saturday morning, my dad suggested we fix it up. "It's a shame to let it go to waste," he said, wiping the dust off the seat.
I was hesitant. I hadn't ridden a bike in years, and I was busy with schoolwork and part-time jobs. But Dad's eyes twinkled with enthusiasm. "Come on," he urged. "It'll be fun. Like old times."
Reluctantly, I agreed. We spent the whole morning in the garage. Dad showed me how to oil the chain, check the brakes, and pump the tires. His hands, though aged, moved with practiced ease. As we worked, he shared stories from his own youth—how he once cycled across the county, how he met Mom at a bike rally. I found myself laughing and listening, forgetting about my worries.
By noon, the bike was as good as new. The blue paint gleamed in the sunlight. Dad patted the seat. "Your turn," he said, handing me a helmet.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
I mounted the bike, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness.
Paragraph 2:
As I rode, memories flooded back.
答案：Paragraph 1:
I mounted the bike, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. My hands gripped the handlebars tightly. At first, I wobbled unsteadily, the bike swerving left and right. Dad ran alongside, his hand hovering near the seat for support. "You've got this!" he encouraged. Gradually, my muscles remembered the motion. I pedaled faster, the wind rushing past my face. A sense of freedom and joy I hadn't felt in years washed over me. I turned to see Dad standing by the driveway, a proud smile on his face. I waved, then focused on the road ahead, the familiar neighborhood unfolding before me.
Paragraph 2:
As I rode, memories flooded back. I remembered Dad teaching me to ride on this very bike in the park, his patient voice guiding me. I recalled summer afternoons spent cycling to the ice cream shop, the basket filled with treats. Each turn of the pedals seemed to unlock a forgotten piece of my childhood. The worries about exams and work faded into the background. In that moment, I wasn't just riding a bike; I was reconnecting with a simpler time, and with my dad. When I finally returned home, breathless and smiling, Dad was waiting with two glasses of lemonade. "See?" he said, handing me a glass. "Some things are worth holding onto." I nodded, realizing he wasn't just talking about the bike.
