　　(2024·江西師大附中三模)

　　An older friend once gave me a piece of advice，“Enjoy the last few weeks of college，” she said，“since college is the best time of your life.”

　　This was not the first time I’d heard such a statement，but with graduation fast coming close，her words especially struck me.It seemed a bit disappointing to reach one’s life peak at only 22 years of age，but in her opinion，college had been one of the best times in my life so far.I made friends，took classes，and learned a great deal about myself.But I was also excited for the time after college—moving to a new city，starting a new job，and becoming a “real” person.I hoped that my great dreams were practical.

　　Then，last week I read a column in Real Simple Magazine called 100 Years of Attitude，in which women 100 years or older shared their life experiences and views.I noticed that none of them considered college as the “best” time of their life.Not all of them went to college，but still in most cases their teens and twenties were not the best times of their life.They said some of their favorite times were raising their children，traveling after retirement，and even enjoying their present time and age.

　　Enjoying one’s present time and age was a clear theme of the interviews.A piece of advice given by the women was about the importance of making the best of all situations.I think it more accurate than that of my friend；I can say with certainty that if I am lucky enough to make it to 100.I refuse to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting (跌落) downhill，or even leveling off.

　　I am sure that our eagerness and devotion will make us college students live a meaningful life.We will not just look backwards or miss our college days.We will look forward in excitement about continued journey uphill.

　　1．Which of the following opinions does the writer agree with?

　　A．College is the best time of one’s life.

　　B．Twenties were the best time of the old people.

　　C．One should make the best of all situations.

　　D．One should not look backwards at their college time.

　　2．In the second paragraph，the writer wants to say________.

　　A．her achievements in college would be the peak of her success

　　B．she is looking forward to living as a “real” person in college

　　C．she becomes more and more uneasy with graduation

　　D．she is satisfied with the college life but is hopeful for the future

　　3．The column the writer read is mainly about those old women’s________.

　　A．best time of life at youth

　　B．life experiences and views

　　C．different opinions about life

　　D．favorite time with best friends

　　4．By saying “I refuse to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting downhill，or even leveling off” (in Paragraph 4)，the writer really means________.

　　A．she will not spend the rest of her time at college

　　B．she will not just obtain a college level certificate

　　C．she will not be satisfied with what she has already accomplished

　　D．she will not be content with the life in the future

　　5．Which of the following words can be used to describe the writer?

　　A．Ambitious.B．Practical.

　　C．Imaginative.

　　D．Proud.

　　B

　　(2024·濰坊5月模擬)

　　Rae and Bruce Hostetler not only work very hard，they also relax just as well.Numerous vacations help

　　the couple to maintain their health and emotional well-being--and it’s no surprise to health care professionals.

　　“Rest，relaxation，and

　　stress

　　reduction are very

　　important for people’s well-being and health.This can be accomplished through daily activities，such as exercise and meditation，but vacation is an important part of this as well，” said primary care physician Natasha Withers from One Medical Group in New York.Withers lists a decreased risk of heart disease and improved reaction time as some of the benefits from taking some time off.“We also know that the mind is very powerful and can help with healing，so a rested，relaxed mind is able to help the body heal better，” said Withers.

　　Psychologists confirm the value of vacations for the mind.“The impact that taking a vacation has on one’s mental health is great，” said Francine Lederer，a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles who specializes in stress and relationship management.“Most people have better life perspective and are more motivated to achieve their goals after a vacation，even if it is a 24-hour time-out.” The trips could be good for their health，good for their family and good for their businesses.

　　The online travel agency Expedia conducted a survey about vacation time in 2010，and according to their data the average American earned 18 vacation days—but only used 14 of them.France topped the list，with the average worker earning 37 vacation days and using all but two of them.Americans’ responses may not be surprising in a culture where long hours on the job often are valued，but that’s not always good for the individual，the family or the employer.

　　Psychologists have also found that people who don’t take enough time to relax may find it harder to relax in the future.“Without time and opportunity to do this，the nerve connections that produce feelings of calm and peacefulness become weaker，making it actually more difficult to shift into less-stressed states，” Mulhern said.

　　6．How did the author introduce the topic of the text?

　　A．By making comparisons.B．By giving an example.

　　C．By raising questions.D．By providing data.

　　7．According to Natasha Withers，vacations can________.

　　A．weaken reaction system

　　B．cure serious diseases

　　C．reduce the level of well-being

　　D．decrease the risk of heart disease

　　8．Expedia’s survey shows that Americans________.

　　A．dislike family gatherings

　　B．have the shortest vacation

　　C．enjoy as many vacations as the French

　　D．think much of spending long hours on the job

　　9．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

　　A．One should never wait to relax.

　　B．Work and rest go against each other.

　　C．Time and opportunity wait for no man.

　　D．A relaxed mind determines everything.

　　10．What is mainly talked about in the text?

　　A．Ways to relax in one’s free time.

　　B．The benefits of taking time off.

　　C．Different opinions on holidays.

　　D．The Hostetlers always on the go.
