16、an be “sharing”, primarily (22) _ (consist) of three parts. Firstly, the festival can start with a 30-minute discussion where groups of students can exchange and share what they (23) _ (expose) to recently, expressing themselves freely. Following this section is the speech. Teacher and student repre
17、sentatives previously selected by us are to share and recommend the book they think really deserving to be read. Its needless to say that the last sharing section which is the most meaningful is donation, during (24) _ time everyone present, teachers or students, is expected to donate one or more bo
18、oks to the library. As for when (25) _ (hold) the activity, the afternoon may be an ideal choice so that it wont interrupt our classes.My advice is justified by the following reasons. First and foremost, it is in the group discussion and exchange that we students can have a thorough idea (26) _ our
19、peers are reading for the moment, serving as a driving force for our own reading journey. So it is (27) _ the books recommended. Named by those “idols” in our mind, they will definitely win our heart. As for the donation, the benefits are exactly self-evident. (28) _ _ can we share beyond our class
20、or even beyond our school, developing a good campus tradition, but (29) _ (importantly), these books which are sure to be dusted on our shelves can now be of more value.Im looking forward to your favorable reply.

22、illing J. signals K. continuously Overcoming Obstacles: How Your Biggest Failure Can Lead to Your SuccessTheres been a lot written on the theme of failure and how essential it is to success. In a world where _31_ is given for peoples accomplishments, failing feels dangerous. The fear of failure can
23、stop people taking risks that might lead to success.Heidi Grant Halvorson, a psychologist, points out much of success is _32_ not on talent but on learning from your mistakes.About half of the people in the world hold that ability in an area - be it creative or social skill - is natural. The other h
24、alf believes, instead, that someone might have a preference or something - say painting or speaking foreign languages - but this ability can be improved through _33_ practice or training.Its almost impossible to think rationally (理性地) while shouting at yourself, “Im a failure”. But when you _34_ you
25、r thinking, you will probably see what you can control - your behavior, your planning, your reactions - and change them.The primary _35_ between successful people and unsuccessful people is that the successful people fail more. If you see failure as a monster approaching you, take another look.Succe
26、ss is as scary as failure. Researchers report that satisfaction grows on challenges. Think about it - a computer game you can always win is boring; one you can win _36_, and with considerable effort, is fun. In pursuit of success, failure exposes areas that you need to _37_. So the failure serves as
27、 a brick wall to test how you apply yourself to _38_ your objectives and how much you want them.There is a way to distinguish whether a failure _39_ you to double down or walk away, says Halvorson. If, when things get rough, you remain fascinated by your goal, you should keep going. If what youre do
28、ing is costing you too much time and energy or its not bringing you joy, you should give a second thought to the _40_ of your goal and even set a new one.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill

The following four aspects may well _45_ the theme of this article.The power of caffeine Caffeine is widely considered a drug that is socially acceptable, universally used, even coo
32、l, but it still causes _46_ symptoms such as headaches, fatigue and a lack of attention when removed from coffee-addicts diets.How much is healthy? Caffeine is by no means a nutrient; you do not need it to be healthy. _47_, it is a substance that can leave you lacking nutrients because it has been s
33、hown to reduce calcium (钙). Caffeine probably causes the body to release water. And the more caffeinated drinks you consume, the less likely you are to drink water. So experts say that adolescents should consume _48_ amounts of caffeine a day (100 mg).Caffeines _49_ According to the Centers for Dise
34、ase Control and Prevention, about 65 percent of middle and higher schoolers are _50_ to insufficient sleep on school nights. Some of their sleep problems can be mainly attributed to (归因于) caffeine, which can remain in the body for seven hours after _51_, thus causing teens worse performance the next
35、 day. It is widely assumed that adequate sleep _52_ proper growth and brain development. During childhood and adolescence, the brain goes through a period called synaptic pruning (突触修剪) when unnecessary connections are promoted.Caffeine labellingCaffeine is not listed on the Nutrition Facts column o
36、n food labels because it is not a _53_. It may be listed as an ingredient, but the amount is not required. Caffeine is now added to foods such as gum, candy and water, along with makeup and beauty products that _54_ to reduce swelling (肿块).Taste preferences and eating habits are often cultivated in
37、childhood and adolescence, so teens, when you consume sweet, caffeinated drinks every time you feel sluggish (无精打采的), you are creating a pattern that may be hard to break as an adult. It is advisable to come up with other _55_ ways to boost energy so that you can master adulting better than many adu

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A)There arent many actors around the world who have enough self
42、 confidence to turn down an offer from Steven Spielberg. Maybe that was why Juliette Binoche gave him a choice. She said shed be happy to be in Jurassic Park as long as she could play a dinosaur. Of course he turned her down and it was probably a good thing. Its difficult to imagine Juliette ripping
43、 people apart with her teeth. However, her decision doesnt seem to have done her career any harm. She has gone on to make a string of hits, including The Unbearable Lightness of Being, The English Patient (for which she won an Oscar) and Chocolat.Success in the United States has not been so easy for
44、 other foreign stars. Gerald Depardieu is a good example. Since his first film in 1967, his filmography (影片集锦) lists 172 acting credits. But he has struggled on the other side of the pond. While some of his films have been popular in the US, they have usually been French films that travelled. One po
45、ssible exception was Green Card, directed by Peter Weir, where he plays a French immigrant who goes through a fake wedding in order to stay and work in the United States. This is a predictable but sweet romantic comedy which typecasts (分配同一类型角色) its lead actors in terms of national stereotypes. While some reviewers were kind, others shredded both the film and Depardieus performance.While Monsieur Depardieu hasnt received the recognition he would have liked in the United States, one Mexi
