A reporter interviews some people in the street and here are some of their ideas. I think students should spend their time on their schoolwork. They can start doing chores after going to college. —Nel, 25 I started to teach my two sons to do chores when they were young. Here’s my way: I print off some chore cards and put them into a box. Then, I let them pick their cards based on their age. For example: 3—5 years old (2 cards); 6—8 years old (3 cards); 9—11 years old (4 cards) and 12—15 years old (5 cards). My boys are very independent. —Addy, 41 Although I have a big family with 9 people we also have over 60 animals to care for. My brothers and I used to complain that we had so much work to do and life was unfair. However, I have learned later that doing chores helps me grow into a better person. —Selena, 12 If students do chores too much, they’ll have less time to take up hobbies. It’s not good for them to improve themselves. —Emily, 41 21. Who agrees that students should do chores? A. Nel and Addy. B. Addy and Selena. C. Selena and Emily. D. Emily and Nel. 22.

At that time, nobody wanted to make friends with me. Then I trained harder and harder. I made a lot of effort to catch up with the team. As the old saying goes—no pains, no gains. After a lot of hard work, I finally became a good player. My teammates wanted to make friends with me. If you want to be a good friend, always remember to make yourself stronger and stronger. Now I’m 14. My friends and I have a lot of stress at school. I’m good at math and one of my best friends is good at English. We often help each other. I help him make progress in math. It really does work! Many of my classmates who are bad at math come to ask me for help. They become my friends as well. Be a helpful study fellow（伙伴）if you want to be a good friend, make yourself into a good friend and you’ll never walk alone. 24. What should one person do first to have good friends according to the writer? A. Be a good friend himself or herself. B. Help others to study math or English. C.

Get decorating (装饰) Bring your box to life using pens, decorations and glue, and try to make it really fun and personal to you. You could even make it look like one of your favourite creatures (生物). 3. Throw your worries away When the box is filly decorated, it’s ready to eat up all your worries. Write them on bits of paper and feed them into your box. When the box is full, be sure to recycle the paper so the worries don’t build up.

D Do you often ask questions? Children are known for wanting answers to many questions, because curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. As we all know, curiosity provides many advantages. Many of history’s greatest discoveries were made by curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more quickly. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world and have useful technology to help them. Even if you don’t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the curiosity of learning, classes will become more interesting. You will be good at them because you enjoy the process of learning. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you an able worker. What will you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. Often, the more you learn about a topic, the more interesting it becomes. To improve your curiosity, get information from as many sources (来源) as possible when you learn about a topic. At the same time, read all kinds of books, watch or listen to speeches and ask questions. Don’t always get information in the same way. Instead, learn to understand the facts that different people know. Don’t assume you already know everything. Instead, search for other possibilities and opinions. Remember, everyone knows something that you don’t know. Find out what it is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes me other people happy by letting them show off their knowledge. Let’s try to become people who are full of curiosity. 31. Why do children like to ask questions? A. Because they don’t know about the human nature. B. Because they are born with natural curiosity. C. Because they are known for reading and watching. D. Because they don’t want to find the answers by themselves. 32. What can curiosity help you in the classroom? A. It can make you cleverer than before. B. It can make the classes easier for you. C. It can help you enjoy the process of learning. D. It can help you feel relaxed in the classroom. 33. Which can be helpful to improve your curiosity? A. Getting information from as many sources as you can. B. Reading only one kind of book. C. Getting the information in the same way. D. Showing others your knowledge. 34. What does the underlined word “assume” mean? A. Worry. B. Forget. C. Wonder. D. Think. 35. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Try to Be Curious B. Make Others Happy C. Learn to Ask Questions D. Great Discoveries Made by Curious People IX. 任务型阅读（共5小题, 每小题2分, 计10分）。 阅读短文，并按要求完成各题。 Does blue light actually influence your health? Blue light before bedtime can make it harder to sleep, and the screens on phones, computers and televisions give out a lot of blue light. It is true. But if you think blue light as a main problem influencing your sleep or your eye health, it’s time to think in another way. A researcher says that blue light is part of sunlight, and your eyes are under the sunshine all the time. You’re fine. There are studies of mice that have found blue light can be bad for the eyes, but mice are nocturnal creatures (夜行性动物) whose eyes are different from ours. In a sense, their eyes can protect themselves. However, adding more protection isn’t likely (可能) to help. You can buy glasses to stop the blue light, but the researcher points out that the way will waste your money. You could get the same effect (影响) just by holding your phone far from your face. Try it now and see if you notice a difference. No? Then it shouldn’t surprise you that a recent research result said that blue-blocking (防蓝光的) glasses have no special effect on sleep quality. If you’re worried about your eye health or your ability (能力) to get to sleep on time, you already know what to do: put the screens away at bedtime. Read a book or find something else to do. While you’re using screens, take a 20-second break every 20 minutes. 1、2小题完成句子；3题回答问题；4题找出并写下第三段的主题句；5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。 36. The screens on phones, computers and televisions give out lots of ____________. 37. Studies on mice have found that blue light can _____________ the eyes. 38. What did the recent research result say about the blue-blocking glasses? __________________________________________________________________ 39. _________________________________________________________________ 40. _________________________________________________________________ X. 词语运用（共 10 小题, 每小题 1分, 计 10分） 根据短文内容及所给提示, 在文中的空白处填写一个正确的单词。 It was my ____41____ (twenty) birthday yesterday. I had ____42____ party with my friends. Now let me tell you something interesting that happened at the party. My best friend Li Ming came together with his Indian friend. I said ____43____ (polite), “Welcome to my party, my new friend.” and I asked him ____44____ English, “Can you speak Chinese?” He ____45____ (nod) his head. Then I said, “xi wang in wan de kai xin” .____46____ he didn’t seem to understand me. Just then Li Ming came up and said, “He actually means that he doesn’t understand Chinese. ” I felt really surprised. Does it mean “no” to nod one’s head in India? After that, I began to use English to talk with him. But I had some difficulty in understanding him because there was ____47____ (different) between Indian English and British English. From the talk, I got to know that he once worked in many ____48____ (factory). I knew that too much pollution was ____49____ (cause) by them. He hoped he could do something for that.

After a lot of hard work, I finally became a good player. My teammates wanted to make friends with me. If you want to be a good friend, always remember to make yourself stronger and stronger.

To improve your curiosity, get information from as many sources (来源) as possible when you learn about a topic.

Let’s try to become people who are full of curiosity. 31. Why do children like to ask questions? A. Because they don’t know about the human nature. B. Because they are born with natural curiosity. C.

Blue light before bedtime can make it harder to sleep, and the screens on phones, computers and televisions give out a lot of blue light. It is true. But if you think blue light as a main problem influencing your sleep or your eye health, it’s time to think in another way. A researcher says that blue light is part of sunlight, and your eyes are under the sunshine all the time. You’re fine. There are studies of mice that have found blue light can be bad for the eyes, but mice are nocturnal creatures (夜行性动物) whose eyes are different from ours. In a sense, their eyes can protect themselves. However, adding more protection isn’t likely (可能) to help. You can buy glasses to stop the blue light, but the researcher points out that the way will waste your money. You could get the same effect (影响) just by holding your phone far from your face. Try it now and see if you notice a difference. No? Then it shouldn’t surprise you that a recent research result said that blue-blocking (防蓝光的) glasses have no special effect on sleep quality. If you’re worried about your eye health or your ability (能力) to get to sleep on time, you already know what to do: put the screens away at bedtime. Read a book or find something else to do. While you’re using screens, take a 20-second break every 20 minutes. 1、2小题完成句子；3题回答问题；4题找出并写下第三段的主题句；5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。 36.

Blue-blocking (防蓝光的) glasses have no special effect on sleep quality. 39. However, adding more protection isn’t likely (可能) to help. 40. 当你使用屏幕时，每隔20分钟休息20秒。 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究发现蓝光本身并不影响人们的睡眠质量和视力健康，使用防蓝光的产品对我们的眼睛并不能起到保护作用，保护眼睛健康的最好方法是远离释放蓝光的电子屏幕，同时文章也给出了几点保护眼睛健康和有利于睡眠的建议。 【36题详解】 根据“the screens on phones, computers and televisions give out a lot of blue light.”可知，手机、电脑和电视的屏幕会发出大量的蓝光。故填blue light。 【37题详解】 根据“There are studies of mice that have found blue light can be bad for the eyes, but mice are nocturnal creatures (夜行性动物) whose eyes are different from ours. In a sense, their eyes can protect themselves.”可知，对老鼠的研究发现，蓝光可以保护其眼睛。故填protect。 【38题详解】 根据“Then it shouldn’t surprise you that a recent research result said that blue-blocking (防蓝光的) glasses have no special effect on sleep quality.”可知，最近的研究结果表明防蓝光眼镜对睡眠质量没有特殊影响。故填Blue-blocking (防蓝光的) glasses have no special effect on sleep quality. 【39题详解】 根据“but the researcher points out that the way will waste your money. You could get the same effect (影响) just by holding your phone far from your face.”以及“blue-blocking (防蓝光的) glasses have no special effect on sleep quality.”可知，此处说明了防蓝光眼镜的意义不大，故本段第一句“然而，增加更多的保护措施可能无济于事。”是主题句。故填However, adding more protection isn’t likely (可能) to help. 【40题详解】 While：当……的时候；you’re using：你正在使用；screens：屏幕；take a 20-second break：休息20秒；every 20 minutes：每20分钟。故填：当你使用屏幕时，每隔20分钟休息20秒。 X. 词语运用（共 10 小题, 每小题 1分, 计 10分） 根据短文内容及所给提示, 在文中的空白处填写一个正确的单词。 It was my ____41____ (twenty) birthday yesterday.
