2． My mother-in-law asked me to climb a mountain in her rural village.We went through tall and weedy expanse of grass，pulling ourselves up with the help of smooth bamboo trees.Weathered gray rocks dotted tracks only visible to an experienced hiker.The view we were rewarded with halfway up the mountain，fixing our eyes upon the colorful pieces of fields and whitewashed homes set against the deep green hills and a sky so blue that it looked digitally polished，was a side benefit of being there.
Our eyes were mostly on the wild eatable plants that grew on the mountainside.We first came upon the wild mountain bamboo，a plant that was the main part in my mother-in-law's salted bamboo shoots that，once preserved，could be used all year long in cooking.Along the way，we also encountered another precious wild food — fiddlehead ferns （蕨菜）.Those delicate leaves，when stir-fired，were a tasty treat.Once I had purchased fiddleheads at a market in the US.Yet there we were，picking this prized vegetable on our own，with only our labor as the cost.
What we had collected that afternoon looked the same as any other wild mountain bamboo shoots and fiddlehead ferns I had seen before in my mother-in-law's kitchen.And yet，they felt different to me because I had used my own hands to help pick them and carry them back down the mountain.Spending time and energy gathering these wild plants gave me a deeper appreciation for the food that ends up on the dinner table.
"Many generations have kept this natural lifestyle.We depend on the mountains for our life，" my mother-in-law says.Those mountains and rivers supporting her life aren't some abstract concept.They are right there，outside her door and within her rural village.Once I saw them through her angle that afternoon，I realized they are closer to me than I ever imagined.

3． Dr Tamara Scully，a psychologist who works with children，young people and adults，shares how grandparents can help children's well-being.
It is difficult to search for the answer to the main mental health challenges facing children.Over the past two years，there has been an increase in child and adolescent mental health difficulties.In particular，there has been a significant increase in anxiety and eating disorders，both of which are the consequence of the COVID-19.Young people are also reporting a much higher level of solitude （孤獨），which may arise from spending too much time on cellphones，televisions and computers.
All these will deeply affect how they behave in their daily life.And it's absolutely normal for young people to move up and down the mental health curve （曲線）. "We get concerned when we notice big changes in their behavior that don't pass in a few weeks.For example，grandchildren stop meeting friends，stay in their bedroom or lose interest in things they used to enjoy."
So what role can grandparents play in ensuring their grandchildren's well-being？According to Scully，the most important thing grandparents can offer is simply themselves，just being there，listening and accepting.There's a lovely saying that it takes a village to raise a child.Relationships are the biggest predictors of happiness and success throughout the whole life.Strong positive relationships build resilience （抗逆力） in our young people.
Grandparents should also be present and give their time.They can give their time directly to their grandchildren and to their own children.A parent who is allowed time to refuel will show up as a better parent.They can help their grandchildren by being on their team and sitting with them when times are tough.All children benefit from something called relational wealth and this is a grandparent's most important contribution to the growth of their younger generations.
（1）Why do young people suffer from increasing loneliness？
A．They have less non-screen time.
B．They prefer enjoying various take-out.
C．They fail to conquer emotional disorders.
D．They concentrate more on ups than downs.
（2）What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean？
A．Children should form great resilience.
B．Children should learn to predict their success.
C．Children should be brought up by all villagers.
D．Children should grow up in a harmonious relationship.
（3）What is the attitude of Scully toward listening to grandchildren？
A．Disapproved.
B．Favorable.
C．Tolerant.
D．Skeptical.
（4）What is the text mainly about？
A．How to accept the youth of today.
B．How to be a qualified grandparent.
C．How to help grandchildren's welfare.
D．How to tackle the mental health challenges.組卷：12引用：5難度：0.3

9．閱讀下面的材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
"SAI BABA!Sai Baba!Sai Baba!Hahahaha!"
"Today is Shimla's big day!We have a celebrity visiting our city!Hahahaha!" Rani's cheekcs burned with embarrassment and tears stung her eyes as she elbowed her way to the exit through the crowd of teasing boys in the packed school bus.It wasn't the first time she'd been called Sai Baba，after the famous Hindu holy man （印度圣人）she'd seen on TV with his trademark afro（爆炸式卷發(fā)）towering over his head.
But this time had to be the worst.Rani jumped off the school bus，angry thoughts hovering inside Rani's head as she marched home in the drizzling rain.Why did her hair have to curl like a giant cotton candy balloon just when she wanted it to behave？Why，jye.ai.jye.ai，fumed Rani as she turned the back door key.
"Rani，is that you？"Mama called from the family room.Suddenly Rani's cousins，Amit and Sumit，came charging toward her. "How many eggs does Rani have in that nest on her head？" screamed Amit. "Let me get that wig（假發(fā)）off Rani's head！"shouted Sumit.Before she could think，Rani had fled out the door and went back up the road she'd walked down minutes before.Halfway up，she slid unseen behind a green curtain of bamboo.Tearing through the wild growth，she made her way down a narrow mud path into a clearing（空地）.She threw her schoolbag on the ground and breathed hard.
"I hate my hair!" she cried.Collapsing on her schoolbag，she bitterly remembered the time she'd spent trying to smooth her hair in vain.Before long，she fell into a fitful sleep.
"RANI!RAA-AANI!"
Rani woke up to Mama's calls.She sounded anxious. "I'll never go home， "she promised herself darkly.Mama let Amit and Sumit make fun of me.Papa would never have done that.He would listen to me and stand by my side.The minutes wore on.Alone in her secret hideout，Rani watched the shadow of Mamna get longer and begin to disappear as dusk fell.
