How do your school and your parents communicate? In my school, parent-school communication is mostly done through emails. This lets parents know what is happening at their children’s school. To improve parent-teacher communication. Parent Breakfasts are organized at the beginning of each academic year (学年) so that parents can meet the head teacher and subject teachers of their children this year. Parent Evenings also take place each term to let parents know their children’s progress in school. There is not a parent committee (委员会) at my school but parents can be part of the Friends Group. They can help organize school events. —Mary UK At my school, parents communicate with the school through the family-school contact pamphlet (手册). Parents can leave a message on the pamphlet, and then the student gives the pamphlet to the head teacher the next day. The head teacher will read the messages and reply. There is also a family committee in my class. It helps the teachers pass on the messages about school to our parents. —Betty, China At my school, parents and teachers keep in touch in many ways. One of them is the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA). The PTA is a voluntary organization (志愿组织) that brings together parents and teachers to discuss and deal with problems with school education. Another way of communication is through parent-teacher meetings.

These meetings are planned one-on-one for privacy. They serve to avoid making students or parents feel uncomfortable if the school needs to talk about certain problems.

The host Guangxi became the biggest winner in climbing, winning three golds, three silvers and one bronze (铜牌). All the medalists were from Mashan county in Nanning. ②Mashan county was once poor because of its mountainous environment. But it has given the local climbers an advantage. Many students climb mountains and trees from an early age, building strong physical fitness. Among them is 15-year-old Huang Xinyi, who won the women’s speed climbing championship. ③In 2017, the first “rock climbing characteristic town” in China was set up in Mashan county. “To bring the sport closer to more students, 23 primary and middle schools in the county have climbing spaces, and each school has one rock climbing class each week,” Huang Xujin, head of Mashan county’s Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Sports and Tourism, told Teens. “A group of professional climbers, including coaches from the national climbing team and excellent climbing athletes, have been hired to guide athletes in the school,” he added. ④Huang Xinyi used to love climbing trees. When she was in the 5th grade of primary school, she became interested in rock climbing and decided to take part. At school, she usually trains from 6:30 to 9:00 in the evening. ⑤For her, climbing is a window to a wider world. “Because of climbing, I stepped out of the mountains for the first time. Competing with climbers across the country helps me become a better athlete. I hope I can achieve even greater results in more countries,” she told Teens. ⑥Mashan county has also set up a special educational pathway (路径) for children with skills in rock climbing. “Students with good rock climbing skills can directly enter the best middle school in the county,” Huang Xujin said. 19. The following aspects are the reasons why the youth from Mashan County won many medals in the rock climbing competition EXCEPT ________. A. their mountainous environment is a great advantage B. rock climbing class is set up at primary and middle schools C. they are familiar (熟悉) with the competition areas D. many excellent climbers and coaches are hired to guide them 20.

A story about a teenager from Mashan County C. The biggest winner in the rock climbing competition D. An exciting experience in the 1st Student (Youth) Games As climate change brings dangers to people, we are now facing another problem—underground climate change. It is reported from a research team from Northwestern University, US that with the development of cities, the rising underground temperature is causing the ground to heat up and deform (变形). In the last three years, the team had put more than 150 temperature sensors (感应器) under Chicago. The places include subway tunnels, underground parking lots and basements (地下室) of buildings. The temperatures they recorded were surprising. For example, air temperatures in underground structures can be up to 25℃ higher compared to the undisturbed ground temperature. After collecting data in Chicago, the team created computer models to see how temperatures will influence the ground until 2051. When heated, some soft materials may contract (收缩), and other materials, such as stone, may expand (膨胀) in size. The models showed that warmer temperatures can cause the ground to expand upward by as much as 1.2 centimeters, or sink downward by as much as 0.8 centimeters. This may even cause the ground to crack (开裂), leaving people who live and work above in dangerous situations. “The effects can be very bad, but it takes a long time to see them.” Rotta Loria, who led the study, said in a report. As scientists have already known a lot about underground climate change, future plans for cities should take it into consideration. Materials that take in heat can be used to keep the heat from entering the ground. The team also pointed out that the rising temperature could be seen as an opportunity. City planners can try to collect heat underground and send it above for heating. 23. The “undisturbed ground” refers to (指代) places like ________. A. Basements B. tunnels C. public parks D. underground parking lots 24. Because of the rising underground temperature, what may happen? A. Soft materials may expand in size. B. The underground buildings may contract. C. More earthquakes may take place. D. More changes in the ground may happen. 25. To avoid the underground climate change, ________. A. the materials that can take in heat should be used B. the number of people who take the underground should be limited (限制) C. fans should be fixed in the ground D. more sensors can be put in the ground to record the temperature 26. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. The longest journey begins with the first step. B. Rome was not build in a day. C. One should look at the problem in two ways. D. Provide for a rainy day. 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 We’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all.

Covering an area of 20, it allows visitors to take a pleasant walk in the quiet and green forest. People tried not to harm the forest when building the forest library. The library is in the open air and has facilities (设施) such as benches and an information booth (亭). Wooden walkways connect green spaces. “I learned about the forest library from my friends, so I came here,” said a 21-year-old college student. “The green outdoor environment helps reduce eyestrain (视疲劳). I will come back for sure.” Having a library in the woods is an extension (延伸) of reading indoors, according to Xu Qiang (副馆长) head of Shanghai Library. “It offers different reading experiences to readers,” Xu added. Most of the visitors to the forest library are young people and parents with their children. They read carefully or take a walk slowly in the forest. “I like the fresh air and the trees here. I’ve spent the whole morning indoors and wanted to get some fresh air. The library makes it possible to enjoy reading in nature. I feel very relaxed here,” said one reader sitting on a bench. 51.

There is also a family committee in my class. It helps the teachers pass on the messages about school to our parents. —Betty, China At my school, parents and teachers keep in touch in many ways. One of them is the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA). The PTA is a voluntary organization (志愿组织) that brings together parents and teachers to discuss and deal with problems with school education. Another way of communication is through parent-teacher meetings. They let parents and teachers meet face-to-face to discuss a student’s progress and performance. —Tony, China Interviews go both ways here, allowing both the school and parents to discuss concerns (担忧) or ask questions. These meetings are planned one-on-one for privacy. They serve to avoid making students or parents feel uncomfortable if the school needs to talk about certain problems. While meetings can be planned at any time, the most common are the end-of-term reports. Each term has 8-10 weeks for students to attend school. Their teachers use the information collected to provide feedback (反馈) to families in about 10-15 minutes. Students often attend these meetings, too. —Chelsea, Australia 15 How many ways of keeping in touch between parents and schools are mentioned by Mary? A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5. 16.

The host Guangxi became the biggest winner in climbing, winning three golds, three silvers and one bronze (铜牌). All the medalists were from Mashan county in Nanning. ②Mashan county was once poor because of its mountainous environment. But it has given the local climbers an advantage. Many students climb mountains and trees from an early age, building strong physical fitness. Among them is 15-year-old Huang Xinyi, who won the women’s speed climbing championship. ③In 2017, the first “rock climbing characteristic town” in China was set up in Mashan county. “To bring the sport closer to more students, 23 primary and middle schools in the county have climbing spaces, and each school has one rock climbing class each week,” Huang Xujin, head of Mashan county’s Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Sports and Tourism, told Teens. “A group of professional climbers, including coaches from the national climbing team and excellent climbing athletes, have been hired to guide athletes in the school,” he added. ④Huang Xinyi used to love climbing trees. When she was in the 5th grade of primary school, she became interested in rock climbing and decided to take part. At school, she usually trains from 6:30 to 9:00 in the evening. ⑤For her, climbing is a window to a wider world. “Because of climbing, I stepped out of the mountains for the first time. Competing with climbers across the country helps me become a better athlete. I hope I can achieve even greater results in more countries,” she told Teens. ⑥Mashan county has also set up a special educational pathway (路径) for children with skills in rock climbing. “Students with good rock climbing skills can directly enter the best middle school in the county,” Huang Xujin said. 19.

It is reported from a research team from Northwestern University, US that with the development of cities, the rising underground temperature is causing the ground to heat up and deform (变形). In the last three years, the team had put more than 150 temperature sensors (感应器) under Chicago. The places include subway tunnels, underground parking lots and basements (地下室) of buildings. The temperatures they recorded were surprising. For example, air temperatures in underground structures can be up to 25℃ higher compared to the undisturbed ground temperature. After collecting data in Chicago, the team created computer models to see how temperatures will influence the ground until 2051. When heated, some soft materials may contract (收缩), and other materials, such as stone, may expand (膨胀) in size. The models showed that warmer temperatures can cause the ground to expand upward by as much as 1.2 centimeters, or sink downward by as much as 0.8 centimeters. This may even cause the ground to crack (开裂), leaving people who live and work above in dangerous situations. “The effects can be very bad, but it takes a long time to see them.” Rotta Loria, who led the study, said in a report. As scientists have already known a lot about underground climate change, future plans for cities should take it into consideration. Materials that take in heat can be used to keep the heat from entering the ground. The team also pointed out that the rising temperature could be seen as an opportunity. City planners can try to collect heat underground and send it above for heating. 23. The “undisturbed ground” refers to (指代) places like ________. A. Basements B. tunnels C. public parks D. underground parking lots 24. Because of the rising underground temperature, what may happen? A. Soft materials may expand in size. B. The underground buildings may contract. C. More earthquakes may take place. D. More changes in the ground may happen. 25. To avoid the underground climate change, ________. A. the materials that can take in heat should be used B. the number of people who take the underground should be limited (限制) C. fans should be fixed in the ground D. more sensors can be put in the ground to record the temperature 26 What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. The longest journey begins with the first step. B. Rome was not build in a day. C. One should look at the problem in two ways. D. Provide for a rainy day. 【答案】23. C 24. D 25. A 26. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了地下温度不断地上升，给人们带来危险，然而，科学家认为气温上升可能被视为一个机会。城市规划者可以尝试在地下收集热量，并将其输送到上面供暖。 【23题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“The places include subway tunnels, underground parking lots and basements (地下室) of buildings. The temperatures they recorded were surprising. For example, air temperatures in underground structures can be up to 25℃ higher compared to the undisturbed ground temperature”可知这些地方包括地铁隧道、地下停车场和建筑物的地下室，他们记录的温度令人惊讶，例如，与未扰动的地面温度相比，地下结构中的空气温度可能高出25℃，故地铁隧道、地下停车场和建筑物的地下室不属于“未扰动地面”，公园属于地面。故选C。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据“the rising underground temperature is causing the ground to heat up and deform”可知，地下温度上升会导致地面发生变化。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Materials that take in heat can be used to keep the heat from entering the ground.”可知，我们可以用吸热材料来避免地下温度升高。故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The team also pointed out that the rising temperature could be seen as an opportunity”可知，地面温度升高虽然会带来很多消极影响，但是也可以把它看作一个机会，所以我们看待问题应该一分为二来看。故选C。 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 We’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move.
