　　Selena Gomez and I are scheduled to meet at a low­key coffee shop in Encino. Not wanting to keep the superstar waiting, I arrived at nine, 20 minutes early. As I was catching up on e­mails, Selena quietly scooted into the seat next to me. No bodyguard. Not even a drop of makeup. She was ten minutes early and so inconspicuous that no one else in the restaurant looked up so much. Selena was wearing Bebe shorts. She had a baby face and ordered a hot chocolate.

　　After making small talk about what she wore for the shoot, she dived into the subject of her career. Selena declared 2017 the year of movies. She filmed three: Spring Breakers, a drama; The Getaway, an action flick; and Hotel Transylvania, a comedy. Each is a marked move away from the teen style that made her a household name.

　　Now that her Disney days are behind her, Selena is at that unstable point in a child star's career where she is trying to grow up—both as a person(she turned 20 in July)and as an artist. “Being part of the Disney Channel was such a blessing, and I'm super happy with what my show accomplished, but acting is something I would like to take on more seriously.” She continued, “I don't necessarily feel accomplished. I want to creat a whole different persona when it comes to acting.”

　　Selena has been working fulltime since she was seven years old and scored a role on Barney&Friends. In 2007, when she was offered the lead in Wizards of Waverly Place, Selena, her mother, and her stepfather uprooted from Grand Prairie, Texas, to LA, where they are settling now.

　　(2017四川广元普高第一次高考适应性统考)There is a problem each of us faces in following advice on emotional healing: apologizing is difficult. We are trapped in what we think of ourselves by holding onto our pride. We can be selfish and not willing to admit our most obvious mistakes. Pride eats away at us as we argue or ignore the mistake.

　　It’s happened to me. I have had too much pride and selfishness to apologize to a loved one I hurt. When I did want to apologize, I couldn’t bring myself to face the other person. This is the pride I’m talking about. Maybe apologies come difficult for men because they’re expected to be dominant (占优势的).It’s like the joke that a man never asks for directions when lost. Ladies are more emotionally open than guys and are willing to express it. Still, both genders wonder how to correctly apologize.

　　In shifting (改变)the focus on apologizing away from you, what does not apologizing do to other people? They feel hurt that you are not willing to communicate your mistake. They lose trust in you as you hide behind your mistake avoiding reality. They become angry with you, wondering why you will not tell them the truth. They may begin to counter your lack of apologies by not apologizing themselves and from this the relationship goes downhill as the two of you get caught in a power struggle.

　　You need to communicate your mistakes. A mistake you made is like a scratch and by not apologizing you are making the scratch a deeper wound and rubbing salt into it. You need to stop hurting the other person and yourself by learning to apologize. There is real power in apologizing and emotional healing.

　　1.People find it hard to apologize for their mistakes because of their  

　　A.emotional feeling

　　B.sticking to their pride

　　C.making argument

　　D.being trapped in lies

　　2.Why are men more unwilling to make apologies?()

　　A.They don’t intend to hurt other people.

　　B.They expect others to forgive them.

　　C.They don’t want to be considered weak.

　　D.They aren’t good at expressing themselves.

　　3.What bad effect will there be if you refuse to apologize for your mistakes?()

　　A.Other people won’t pay attention to you.

　　B.You will lose confidence in yourself.

　　C.You won’t be forgiven even if you tell the truth.

　　D.The friendship will get hurt and go worse.

　　4.From the last paragraph, it can be inferred that  

　　A.communication can stop your making mistakes

　　B.mistakes would turn into deeper scratches

　　C.apologizing is good for you and the other person

　　D.apologizing is the most powerful in emotional healing

　　语篇解读:每个人都会犯错,但是很多人犯错后因为内心的骄傲不愿意承认自己的错误,也不愿意向别人道歉,这不但对自己有害,还会伤害别人,进而影响人与人之间的关系。

　　答案及剖析:1.B　细节理解题。由第一段的We are trapped in what we think of ourselves by holding onto our pride可知,人们不愿意道歉是因为内心的骄傲,故选B项。

　　2.C　推理判断题。由第二段的Maybe apologies come difficult for men because they’re expected to be dominant可知,男士通常被认为处于主导地位,所以他们会觉得道歉很没面子,故选C项。

　　3.D　细节理解题。由第三段可知,如果你不为自己的错误道歉的话,就会失去朋友对你的信任,然后对方也不会向你道歉,最终导致友谊的破裂,故D项正确。

　　4.C　推理判断题。由You need to stop hurting the other person and yourself by learning to apologize可知,道歉对犯错的人和受伤害的人都有好处,故选C项。交流错误就是道歉,但是道歉不能防止人犯错,故A项错误;犯错后及时道歉就不会使伤害加深,故B项错误;由文章最后一句话There is real power in apologizing and emotional healing可知D项错误。

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

　　You know how wonderful you are, and you know that others know how wonderful you are, but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy(嫉妒)? For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship. When this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do, but the good news is that there is. Don’t let jealousy spoil your relationships. Handle it head on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.

　　It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is, but if you want to save your friendship you’ll have to do just that. Don’t approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally proud), just take some time alone with them and let them know that you’ve been feeling like there’s been something coming between you. If they refuse to respond, then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling. Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.

　　When you figure out what is annoying your friend, ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better. If, for example, (s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn’t get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team, then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you. Remember, though, that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise(和解). Don’t limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy. Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.

　　Even the best of friendships can be tinged(略带着) with jealousy. This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies. Before taking extreme action, chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise. If you can’t, be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won’t.

　　68. According to the author, the jealousy emotion is________.

　　A. normal

　　B. productive

　　C. destructive

　　D. extreme

　　69. The underlined “it” in the first paragraph refers to________.

　　A. friendship

　　B. relationship

　　C. admiration

　　D. jealousy

　　70. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

　　A. There’s always a solution to solve the problem of jealousy.

　　B. Jealousy can turn best friends into worst enemies.

　　C. You may lose a friend to keep your own gifts, chances or self development.

　　D. You should go a long way with your friend to work out a solution

　　71. The purpose of the passage is________.

　　A. to explain what causes jealousy

　　B. to offer some advice on making friends

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。

　　A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was setting. She was on the beach, looking up at the fiery （火红的） ball. She was amazed by its color, deep red in the middle, softly fading into yellow. She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.

　　The atmosphere relaxed her. After all she had been through, this was what she needed. “It’s getting late,” she thought, “I must go home. My parents will be wondering where I am.”

　　She wondered how her parents would react, when she got home after the three days she was missing. She kept on walking, directing herself where she spent every summer holiday. The road was deserted. She walked slowly and silently. Just in a few hundred meters she would have been safe in her house.

　　It was really getting dark now. The sun had set a few minutes before and it was getting cold, too. She wished she had her favorite sweater on— it kept her really warm. She imagined having it with her. This thought disappeared when she finally saw her front door. It seemed different. Nobody had taken care of the outside garden for a few days. She was shocked: her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and tidy, and now... It all seemed deserted. She couldn’t understand what was going on.

　　She entered the house. First, she went into the kitchen where she saw a note written by her father. It said, “ Ellen, there is some coffee ready. I went looking.” Ellen was her mother but — where was she? On the right side of the hallway was her parents’ room. She went in. Then she saw her. Her mother, lying on the bed, was sleeping. Her face looked so tired, as if she hadn’t slept for days. She was really pale. Jennifer would have wanted to wake her up but she looked too tired. So Jennifer just fell asleep beside her. When Jennifer woke up, something was different... she wasn’t in her mother’s room and she wasn’t wearing the old clothes she ran away in. She was in her snug bed in her pajamas （睡衣）.

　　It felt so good being back home. Suddenly she heard a voice, “Are you feeling better now, ? You know you got us very, very scared.”

　　72. What does “This thought” in the fourth paragraph refer to?

　　b. crazy

　　c. tired

　　d. disappointed

　　e. shocked

　　f. excited

　　A. a, b, c

　　B. a, c, e

　　C. b, c, e

　　D. d, e, f

　　75. What can we conclude from this passage?

　　C. When she found the garden deserted, she realized she got cross.
