(2014·山东省济南市高考模拟)
To win an Oscar is an achievement at any age.To do so at 22,like Jennifer Lawrence,is just amazing.Recently,the American star won Best Actress at this year’s Academy Awards for her role in the film Silver Linings Playbook.According to Time magazine’s Richard Corliss,Lawrence is a rare young actress who lends mature intelligence to any role.
Though Lawrence has found great success through her big screen work,she wasn’t sure what she really liked doing before the age of 14.She thought she’d go to college and maybe find a career as a doctor or a travel agent.
Lawrence’s two brothers were star athletes and one of them was a straightA student.Unlike them,she suffered through school,never finding where she belonged.However,during a trip to New York,Lawrence suddenly realized that she wanted to be an actress.When she was enjoying the beautiful city,a model seeker asked if he could take her picture,and the next day he called her in for an audition (试镜).
“I read the script and it was the first time I had that feeling like I understand this,” Lawrence said.“Within 20 minutes in the cab ride from the hotel,I decided I didn’t want
to be a model.In fact,I wanted to be an actress.”Having appreciated this young lady’s performance,the agency was so impresed with her reading that they signed her on the spot.But she insisted on finishing high school so she could pay her full attention to her acting career.
Lawrence burst onto the Hollywood scene last year with The Hunger Games,which established her as the highestgrossing
(票房最高的) female action hero of all time.Rolling Stone called her “the most talented young actress in America”.
1.Which of the following is true of Jennifer Lawrence?
A.She achieved her dream by chance.
B.She used to be a wellknown model.
C.She was awarded by the Academy Awards.
D.She wanted to be an actress at an early age.
2.What can we know about Jennifer Lawrence from Paragraph 3?
A.Her parents were really strict with her.
B.She seemed not to fit in with her school life well.
C.Her school performance made her today’s fame.
D.Her two brothers were doing well in all school subjects.
3.Lawrence made up her mind to be an actress because of________.
A.a model interview
B.her brothers’ examples
C.the taxi ride to her hotel
D.the beautiful scenery of New York
4.From the text we can know that Lawrence is an actress of great________.
A.confidence
B.ambition
C.independence
D.talent
5.What is the best title of the text?
A.Choosing Right
B.Acting Wisely
C.Winning Young
D.Following Dreams

(2014·山东省潍坊市高三联合考试)
Apart from psychological illness,we are all largely responsible for our own emotional health.What we say to ourselves over and
over for
days,weeks,months,and sometimes years,has a great effect on how we see ourselves.This also contributes to many mental health disorders.
Many of us have problems with negative thoughts playing on the channel of our minds,but if you’re buried in them and believe them,they could be wearing your sense of selfesteem (自尊).Here are a few beliefs that indicate you may need to switch the channel:I’m not good enough?/I don’t deserve...?/No one likes me?/I’m a failure?
Negative thoughts remind you of your bad feelings and they bring your focus on your failures,and they get you nowhere.
What can you do?Here are some suggestions:
Switch the channel when negative thoughts appear.Selftalk is not so obvious that we often don’t notice its effect on our mood and belief systems.Key things to notice are “if only” or “what if” statements:the former keeps you stuck in the past with regret,while the latter keeps you fearful of the future.There is nothing you can do about the past,and the future isn’t here yet,so stay in the present moment.
Recognize that actions always follow beliefs.You’ll find yourself behaving in ways that are consistent to your beliefs.So,start believing the best about yourself:act as if you believe that you’re a valuable and worthy person.
Develop positive selftalk rather than negative selftalk.Instead of always looking down upon yourself in your head,think of some things you actually like about yourself.What are your strengths?What are you good at?Instead of saying “I’m a
loser”,try saying,“I am capable./I’m good at.../I accept myself the way I am.”
Thinking poorly about ourselves gets us nowhere and is
extremely selflimiting.Decide today to turn off the negative
selftalk channel in your mind and develop your true potential.
6.From the first two paragraphs we can learn that________.
A.lots of people have no sense of selfesteem
B.focusing on negative thoughts may have bad effect on people
C.negative thoughts will strengthen our sense of selfesteem
D.few people have negative thoughts and mental problems
7.The underlined word “wearing” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to________.
A.strengthening B.protecting
C.weakening D.replacing
8.What do the suggestions in the text tell us?
A.Our beliefs always come after actions.
B.Positive selftalk does good to our mental health.
C.Looking down upon ourselves is a sign of modesty.
D.“What if” keeps you stuck in the past with regret.
9.The text encourages us to________.
A.get rid of negative thoughts
B.get anywhere we like
C.think highly of others
D.turn off the selftalk channel
10.This text is most likely to appear in________.
A.a recreation guide B.a medical journal
C.a science textbook
D.a travel brochure
