Don’t worry if we haven’t learned well how to save or spend money. The following life lessons about money can help us form good spending habits. Money doesn’t grow on trees. As kids, we don’t often think about where money comes from. We need to know that our parents work hard to make money, and that it may be used up one day. Going to their workplaces to watch how they work is a great way to understand money is not that easy to make. We shouldn’t spend all our money in one go. It’s important for us to have a budget (预算) . In other words, we need to think about how much money we have and what we really want to spend it on. Realizing that our pocket money can’t cover everything we want, we should make smart spending choices. We should set a clear goal and watch our money grow. If we wish to own a new bicycle but can’t afford it, we can save our pocket money. How? Write down how much money we have in a notebook and watch it grow. After we have enough, we can buy that wonderful bicycle we’ve dreamed about! Reaching our goal will greatly satiate us. We can talk with our parents about how money is used and where money goes. Do you know what a bank account (账户) is? If not, communicate with our parents. We can also go to the supermarket with our parents to experience how money is spent in the real world. Without doubt, we should treat money in a right way. Actually, learning about money isn’t a hard job. From these lessons, we can get a sense of money management and right money values step by step! 11．Where does money come from according to the text? A．Parents’ hard work. B．Kids’ life lessons.

Making any kind of progress can make us healthy and happy in life. By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our life. To make more progress in life, start looking at problems in a different way. Whatever happens, if we think positively, it can be useful and helpful. We need to know that problems are part of our life. After we solve problems one after another, we can make more progress and become stronger. Having confidence (信心) is helpful for us to make progress. Confidence comes from different places, such as proper education, training or having good relationships. We should also stay with people who believe in our success and actively support us. These people can help push us towards progress. Slow progress is still progress. Just as the old saying goes, “It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” Progress usually comes a lot more slowly than we expect. Even if progress is slow, try not to be worried. One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals, and another is that we clearly remember what our goals are all the time. The actual speed isn’t important. The road to progress is not always smooth. Most progress often comes with setbacks along the way. Sometimes, maybe it feels like we’re taking one step forward and three steps back, but it won’t always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want. Progress doesn’t always happen in a straight line. As long as we keep working, we will achieve higher levels. 16．What does progress make us do? A．Set lifelong goals. B．Go forward easily. C．Live healthily and happily. D．Think about new things. 17．What does Paragraph 3 tell us? A．We should support different people. B．Some people can push us to failure. C．Confidence helps us make progress.

For example, there should be a leader who helps everyone make decisions. There might be a note-taker who writes down the team’s ideas during meetings, and a time-keeper to control the time. There might also be a fact-checker or a group speaker. Divide the work For large projects, the work can be divided into smaller tasks. Then you can choose tasks that you do well or enjoy. Of course, you shouldn’t always do the same task. It’s good to try new things, even if they’re difficult! Make a plan After you divide the work, write down a plan on paper. You can use a calendar to help you. List all the tasks and think about when each one must be finished. It’s important for everyone to follow the plan.

The weather was cloudy except for one night. Nancy and I sat in the field and we felt relaxed. We talked about the fantastic trip, looking at the stars. “It’s a pity we don’t know which stars we’re looking at, Jenny,” said Nancy. “I know some of them,” I answered. Nancy felt surprised when I finally finished telling her all the names I knew. My interest in stars began when I was eight. My aunt took me to a planetarium（天文馆）. A guide showed us the groups of stars and told us stories about how they got their names. The stories were wonderful. Everyone knows we can see the stars better when it’s not cloudy, but lots of people don’t realize that a bright moon also stops us seeing very much. I always look for the Plough（北斗星）, because once I see that, I can find the North Star and other stars. I wanted to learn more about the stars, so I took a course at the club. There are so many lights in the city that we have to go into the countryside to see any stars. I’m planning to make videos about stars in the countryside. I’ll post them online for everyone to watch.

But why do you have dreams and goals, you still end up with nothing? What separates successful people from the dreamers is their persistent (锲而不舍的) action. When you learn your lessons in school, you must work hard and not give up. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying, and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with. If we have a hard lesson today, let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow. This is the famous formula (公式) for success: Dream > Believe > Achieve Most people have what they want (Dream) and think they can realize their dreams (Believe). And then they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired waiting and lose a lot, they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is. I personally believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life, you have to add one thing to your success formula: Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve For me, act is the most important thing for success and that’s to Take Persistent Action (Act). If you say, “I can’t do it” and give up, you can never do anything valuable. However, “I’ll try” creates wonders. Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them. Success is not something that falls down from the sky. Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent action. Please remember: Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality. 46．What should you do when you find your lessons very hard? A．Ask people for help. B．Try and keep trying. C．Get ready to create wonders. D．Prepare for a harder one. 47．Which does the writer add to the famous formula? A．Act. B．Achieve. C．Connect.

A．To support his idea. B．To ask readers to explain it. C．To show what his goals are. D．To compare it with a bridge. 50．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Doing Something Valuable B．Studying Hard and Making Progress C．Realizing Dreams with Persistent Action D．Separating Successful People from Dreams （2021·河北·中考真题） My learning record Unit 2 Let’s celebrate!

For example, what would we do without a community fire station？ If a home catches on fire,as the Jackson place did last week, it might be burned down and people get hurt…or worse. We're so lucky to have firemen to come to save people and put out the fire, safely. If the fire station hadn't come so fast, the Jacksons might have lost everything. And what about our local police who protect our families, our homes and valuable things?The police have helped so many families this past year, especially saving people and pets and protecting our houses and other things after the heavy rains. Think about all the other service workers we have in this community, We have people who collect waste and rubbish and keep our community sanitary, We have road workers who put up and repair traffic signs and fix holes in the streets to protect not just us, but our cars! And where would this community be without the teachers in our school and the doctors, and nurses in our community hospitals?

With wind it steals in night; Mute, it moistens each thing. Over wild lanes dark cloud spreads; In boat a lantern looms. Dawn sees saturated reds; The towns heavy with blooms. — Translated by Xu Yuanchong When Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712～770) wrote this poem, he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes he went to farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers. The very first word, “good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good indeed, as it knows the right time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to know that it should come in time for the farmer’s busy plowing season. When the rain comes, it appears during the night. Unlike the thunder and lightning of summer storms, the quiet spring rain makes its contributions without being known. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy, showing that there will be enough rain during the night. Then the poet imagines: tomorrow morning, all of the flowers in the city will bloom after the rain. 76．What’s the main idea of the poem according to the text? A．The poet’s love for the wind. B．The poet’s love for spring. C．The poet’s care for the field. D．The poet’s care for farmers. 77．Which word can be used to describe the rain in this poem? A．Busy. B．Quiet. C．Clean. D．Enough. 78．Why does the poet use the word “knows” in the first line of the poem? A．To introduce the poem. B．To show the farmer’s busy work. C．To describe the rain’s smartness. D．To tell the right time of rain coming. （2024·河北邯郸·三模） If you have to describe yourself to someone else, what will you say? It can be difficult to see yourself from the outside, but knowing who you are, namely self-awareness, can help you understand feelings and make friendships closer. Self-awareness means having a good understanding of our own character, that is, having the ability to see ourselves. clearly. If you’re self-aware, you may know that you love playing an instrument because you do well in it, and music makes you happy, or that you prefer watching TV on your own because it helps you relax. Knowing what you like and dislike, what you do well in and what you find difficult allows you to make better decisions about friendships, schoolwork and so on. You learn to trust your own feelings more, which builds confidence. The World Health Organization says self-awareness is one of ten important life skills that help young people live happier, healthier lives. Being self-aware doesn’t mean only thinking of yourself. By understanding your own feelings, you will better understand other people too. How do you lean to be self-aware? It’s a good way to ask questions. But ask yourself questions that start with “What” instead of “Why”. So if you don’t understand why you keep arguing with a friend, ask yourself what you disagree on instead of why you’re arguing. Learning to be more self-aware is a skill, which means you learn it as you grow. So be bold and try out new things, like playing a new sport or listening to different kinds of music. Don’t be afraid to dislike something—discovering what you find difficult is a key part of learning more about yourself. 79．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．What self-awareness is. B．What true happiness is. C．How to find true happiness. D．How to develop self-awareness. 80．Why is knowing yourself important? A．Because it will make you think more of yourself. B．Because it will make you perform better at school. C．Because it will help you learn how to ask proper questions. D．Because it will help you have a better understanding of others. 81．What’s one of the keys to becoming more self-aware? A．Being in high spirits. B．Discovering your weak points. C．Having a taste for pleasant music. D．Learning to get along well with others. 82．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A．It can be hard for you to know yourself well from others. B．It takes a lot of time and energy to develop close friendships. C．It is important and necessary for you to make a right decision. D．It is a must to stick to your opinions when arguing with others. （2024·河北邯郸·三模） “Are you cold?” This is a question I’ve heard many times since I came to China. I often wear a light jacket and T-shirt during winter, when most other people are wearing heavy clothing. I understand that people are sometimes confused (困惑的) or worried when I wear so little clothing during winter. But when my Chinese friends refuse to eat or drink cold things, even during the heat of summer, I become the one who is confused. They believe that cold food and drinks might harm their health. Where does this belief (信仰) come from? My friends said their parents taught them that cold food and drinks are bad for your body. One friend even told me that cold liquids, such as ice water, can cause the fat in your stomach to become solid (固体) . But after doing some research of my own, I wasn’t sure if this was truly the case. According to an article I read on Snopes, a website, the food that you eat will quickly match your own internal temperature. This means that it doesn’t matter if you eat something hot or cold. The temperature of the food or drinks will match your own temperature anyway. But on the other hand, when I get sick, my Chinese friends often tell me “drink some hot water and have a good rest”. And I have to say, following this advice often does make me feel better. 83．What makes the writer become confused? A．Wear heavy clothing in winter. B．Saying no to eat or drink cold things. C．Turn over the table while eating. D．Wearing light clothing in summer. 84．Why do the Chinese say no to cold food and drinks according to the passage? A．They learn it from their friends. B．Parents always order them not to do that. C．Cold food and drinks might be bad for the health. D．Cold food and drinks must cause stomach cancer. 85．Which word is close to the underlined word “internal”? A．inside B．outside C．normal · D．special 86．When the writer gets sick, his Chinese friends often tell him to ________. A．take some Chinese medicine. B．drink some ice water. C．eat food with less fat. D．drink some hot water. 87．What is the best title of the passage? A．Different table manners. B．Great culture. C．Different beliefs. D．Perfect eating habit. （2024·河北石家庄·三模） Are you good at remembering what you’ve learned at school? Is it an easy process for all people? No one’s memory is perfect. Even the smartest people forget things. This does not mean a person has a bad memory. It means he is not using his mind to his advantages. The brain has short-term memory and long-term memory. When we learn something new, it stays in our memory for around 20-30 seconds. This is our short-term memory. It can hold a small amount of information. If we repeat it and use it often, this information can move from short-term memory to long-term memory, which is the place where memories are stored for a long time. The skill for remembering is moving information from short-term to long-term memory. No one knows exactly how this happens. But one thing is for sure—practising, or making repetition of information, is one of the most popular methods of remembering. And scientists say that long-term memory will never fill up completely with memories in one’s lifetime. Then why do we forget things? Forgetting things that are not important helps our brain to remember things that are important. Our brain is always “cleaning out” useless information to make room for something more useful. If you are interested in improving your memory, there are lots of simple things you can do, like eating healthily, sleeping well and exercising daily. Besides, it’s also important to challenge your brain. You can play mind games, learn a musical instrument or study a new language. All you need to do is to keep your brain healthy and active. 88．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing facts. C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples. 89．What is one of the most popular ways to remember information according to the passage? A．Listening or writing. B．Practising or asking. C．Listening or speaking. D．Practising or repeating. 90．The last paragraph mainly talks about ________. A．the ways to eat healthily B．the ways to improve our memory C．the reasons for playing mind games D．the reasons for studying a new language 91．Where does the text most probably come from? A．A guide. B．An ad. C．A story book. D．A magazine. （2024·河北衡水·二模） Many of us like to watch and post short videos. But can we share whatever we like, even with the wrong information? A blogger (博主) said sorry for one video she posted on Feb 16. In the video, she said that she had found a student’s holiday workbook and said the student’s name was Qin Lang. Many Internet users checked the student’s name, grade, and school. They found out the video might not be real. In a new video, the blogger claimed (声称) that she had given the wrong information to protect the student’s privacy (隐私). Some people might think it’s not a big deal if you make a video with the wrong information. They believe that saying sorry will fix everything. But it’s not that simple. According to the Law on Penalties for Administration of Public Security (《治安管理处罚法》), if the videos don’t care about the truth and disturb (扰乱) public order, their makers will get punished (惩罚). It’s important to be creative when people make short videos. However, it is not OK to make up stories and break the law. As early as 2000, the State Council issued the Administrative Measures on Internet Information Services (《互联网信息服务管理办法》). It bans (禁止) spreading rumors and disturbing the social order. If you break the law, you could get in trouble. For example, you might get your social media account (账户) stopped, have to pay fines, get detained (拘留) or even go to jail (监狱). Eleven online celebrities in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture in Sichuan were arrested (逮捕) in 2023 for selling fake products in videos. They got sentences from 8 months to 3 years and 2 months in jail. 92．Why does the writer use the blogger’s event in Paragraph 2? A．Because she was punished by the police. B．Because she shared someone’s information. C．Because she put wrong information in her video. D．Because she protected a student’s privacy. 93．What does the word “rumor” mean? A．Personal information. B．Creative stories. C．Online short videos. D．Stories that may not be real. 94．According to the article, what can happen if someone spreads rumors on the Internet? A．They will be forced to apologize publicly on social media. B．They might face legal actions, such as fines or imprisonment. C．They will be asked to take educational courses on proper Internet use. D．Their video content will be labeled as fake news with a warning. 95．What online activities break the law, according to the story? a. Writing stories. b. Selling fake products. c. Sharing one’s problems. d. Fooling viewers. A．ab B．ac C．bc D．bd 96．What is the main idea of the article? A．Making creative and entertaining short videos should always be encouraged. B．Spreading false information in short videos can lead to serious legal consequences. C．Short video platforms need to implement better security measures. D．Bloggers often post fake stories to gain more attention online. （2024·河北邢台·三模） Charity Walk The Sunshine Youth Fund organized a charity (慈善) walk around Tai Shek Lake on Sunday, 6th September.

Would you make them look modern or restore (修复) them as they were? David I think it’s a good idea to add something modern when restoring broken ancient buildings. In this way, we can help people feel the beauty of ancient buildings. Also, this can make the buildings safe and more comfortable for tourists. In the end, it can help keep culture alive. Liu Xinrui I don’t think we need to repair the broken ancient buildings. Old buildings are always showing the civilization (文明) that built them. These buildings, whether broken by accidents or war, stand for the old civilization. Modern technology can never make that up. Wang Hongjie Old buildings should be restored to how they were before because they show culture and wisdom (智慧) from ancient times. They help pass on the love and pride of a country. If we let old buildings “Die”, then people will know nothing about the past. 101．What is Liu Xinrui’s idea on broken ancient buildings? A．They should be cleared away. B．We don’t need to repair them at all. C．They should be restored to how they were before. D．We should add something modern when restoring them. 102．Why should ancient buildings be restored according to Wang Hongjie? A．They are worth a lot of money. B．They show the beauty of the past. C．They help with the local development. D．They are of special meaning to a country. 103．What is the purpose of the text? A．To share ideas. B．To ask for help. C．To give directions. D．To report something. （2024·河北邯郸·三模） These days, we easily feel stressed as we need to do lots of work every day. It’s important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. We should try organizing our problems from most important to least important as well as most urgent (紧急的) to least urgent. If some problems are both important and urgent, such as studying for a next-day test, do those tasks first. Once those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent, such as preparing for the final exams. From there, we can work on problems that are less important. Organizing our work this way helps a lot in knowing what to do first and not worrying about the rest. Sometimes we feel stressed because we are not able to complete the task by ourselves. It’s better to ask someone for help. If we stick to doing these tasks ourselves, it can make us more stressed and upset. Open your mouth bravely, and someone must give you a hand. Still, sometimes we don’t feel relaxed even after organizing our work well. That’s okay. We can try to plan some exercise in our daily life. It doesn’t even have to be a big trip to the gym, although that surely helps. It could be something as small as walking around the neighborhood for 10 minutes. Also, we can try different activities together with our family members or friends. We can try meditation (冥想). Again, this does not need to be anything special. Just set aside 10to 20 minutes with a timer, sit upright, close your eyes, and focus only on breathing. If other ideas come up, accept that they are there and let them fall away on their own. By trying these steps, we will go a long way toward feeling relaxed and peaceful when finishing all of the work. 104．In which order should we organize our tasks? a. Both important and urgent tasks.          b. Less important tasks. c. Important but not urgent tasks.           d. Neither important nor urgent tasks. A．a→b→c→d B．a→c→b→d C．d→c→b→a D．d→b→c→a 105．What does Paragraph 3 tell us? A．Always complete the tasks by ourselves. B．We can tell the truth to other people. C．Try to give a helping hand to others. D．We should ask for help sometimes. 106．What does the writer advise us to do to relax in Paragraph 4? A．Go on a big trip. B．Take a walk around. C．Spend time organizing our work well. D．Do the same activity every day. 107．What should we do when other ideas come up during meditation? A．Lie down and set a timer. B．Try to breathe gently. C．Just leave them alone. D．Open and then close our eyes. 108．Which can be a proper title for the text?

Hundreds of books, speeches and even the media tell us that happiness is within our reach. All we have to do is to follow some simple steps, like going to deep thoughts, living in the moment and doing yoga (瑜伽). But if you are going through a difficult time, none of these may work. In fact, feeling deeply sad is a normal (正常的) part of getting better. It is said that if you are going through a hard time, it’s important for you to do something that can make you feel better. Here are some skills that have helped me and many people. Perhaps they can work for you too. Looking at water while you are in nature can bring quietness. Being outside is also good. But if you’re not anywhere near an ocean, lake or river, looking at shapes of moving water on TV can be soothing. But if you have lost the ability to find some pleasure in your daily life or from the people around you, think about the time you were at your happiest. Doing this actually sends chemicals to your brain, and it can make you feel better. If it still doesn’t work, something worse may have happened to you. You’d better think about getting yourself checked out by doctors. We can’t allow our feelings of low points to rule our lives, but we can’t think little of them, either. They must be treated carefully so that we can move on. 112．According to the passage, if you are in a difficult time, ________ may be helpful. A．going to deep thoughts B．doing yoga as much as possible C．living in the moment D．doing something that can make you feel better 113．You can feel ________ when you look at water in nature.

A．go to see a doctor B．look at water in nature C．watch TV D．think about the sad time 116．What is the best title for the passage? A．How to Find Happiness B．Our Feelings C．Water Can Make You Quiet D．Happiness Is a Kind of Feeling （2024·河北张家口·三模） Everyone has a better self in their hearts. But for many people, it is hard for them to make a change for that, especially a big one. Once we fail in that, we are less likely to do well in the future. Success leads to success, and failure repeats failure. But by taking small steps, we all can be a better one. Here are three practical examples. Tidying your house. No matter how large or small a house you have, you may often delay the “spring clean” again and again until the summer comes. A big clean is seldom enjoyable, but you can tell yourself, “Today, I will do the bedroom, and nothing more.” Or, “I will do the chairs this morning, and the tables this afternoon.” It will probably take you longer, but it gets done. Sporting achievement. To many people around the world, running a marathon (马拉松) is usually something impossible. But anything is simply one small step after another. Those great runners often repeat, “Just to the top of that hill,” or, “Just one more mile,” over and over—until one mile becomes 26.2 miles. Changing your character (性格). There’s a lot of truth in the power (力量) of habit. When we do a thing over and over, our brains will form a fixed mind-set. It’s impossible to “be kind” overnight. It takes small change step by step. So, try to do one kind thing before lunch. Do another one before you go to bed. Over time, you will easily and habitually do kind things one day. You’ve become kind. Rome was not built in a day and so does making changes. Slowly, slowly and over great time, great things can be done. 117．What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A．Everyone can be a better one. B．Everyone has a big dream. C．Failure is the mother of success. D．There’s no way to success. 118．What does the underlined word “delay” probably mean? A．Hear of. B．Put off. C．Put up. D．Look at. 119．In the writer’s eyes, what makes those great runners? A．Having good luck. B．Being kind to others. C．Getting help from others.

Making any kind of progress can make us healthy and happy in life. By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our life. To make more progress in life, start looking at problems in a different way. Whatever happens, if we think positively, it can be useful and helpful. We need to know that problems are part of our life. After we solve problems one after another, we can make more progress and become stronger. Having confidence (信心) is helpful for us to make progress. Confidence comes from different places, such as proper education, training or having good relationships. We should also stay with people who believe in our success and actively support us. These people can help push us towards progress. Slow progress is still progress. Just as the old saying goes, “It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” Progress usually comes a lot more slowly than we expect. Even if progress is slow, try not to be worried. One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals, and another is that we clearly remember what our goals are all the time. The actual speed isn’t important. The road to progress is not always smooth. Most progress often comes with setbacks along the way. Sometimes, maybe it feels like we’re taking one step forward and three steps back, but it won’t always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want. Progress doesn’t always happen in a straight line.

The weather was cloudy except for one night. Nancy and I sat in the field and we felt relaxed. We talked about the fantastic trip, looking at the stars. “It’s a pity we don’t know which stars we’re looking at, Jenny,” said Nancy. “I know some of them,” I answered. Nancy felt surprised when I finally finished telling her all the names I knew. My interest in stars began when I was eight. My aunt took me to a planetarium（天文馆）. A guide showed us the groups of stars and told us stories about how they got their names. The stories were wonderful.

What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dream and goal. But why do you have dreams and goals, you still end up with nothing? What separates successful people from the dreamers is their persistent (锲而不舍的) action. When you learn your lessons in school, you must work hard and not give up. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying, and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with. If we have a hard lesson today, let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow. This is the famous formula (公式) for success: Dream > Believe > Achieve Most people have what they want (Dream) and think they can realize their dreams (Believe). And then they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired waiting and lose a lot, they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is. I personally believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life, you have to add one thing to your success formula: Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve For me, act is the most important thing for success and that’s to Take Persistent Action (Act). If you say, “I can’t do it” and give up, you can never do anything valuable. However, “I’ll try” creates wonders. Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them. Success is not something that falls down from the sky. Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent action. Please remember: Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality. 46．What should you do when you find your lessons very hard? A．Ask people for help. B．Try and keep trying. C．Get ready to create wonders. D．Prepare for a harder one. 47．Which does the writer add to the famous formula? A．Act. B．Achieve. C．Connect. D．Create. 48．What does the underlined word “obstacles” mean? A．Dangers. B．Imaginations. C．Wonders. D．Difficulties. 49．Why does the writer use the formula “Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve”? A．To support his idea. B．To ask readers to explain it. C．To show what his goals are. D．To compare it with a bridge. 50．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Doing Something Valuable B．Studying Hard and Making Progress C．Realizing Dreams with Persistent Action D．Separating Successful People from Dreams 【答案】 46．B 47．A 48．D 49．A 50．C 【分析】 每个人对未来都有梦想和目标，但是只有梦想和目标是不够的，行动才是连接梦想和目标与现实的桥梁。 46．细节理解题。根据“You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying, and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with.”可知，发现一些功课很难时要继续努力，故选B。 47．细节理解题。比较“Dream > Believe > Achieve”和“Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve”可知，作者添加了“Act”，故选A。 48．词义猜测题。分析“Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them.”可知，在我们的生活中会有障碍，我们要勇敢面对，解决问题。此处obstacles的意思是“问题，障碍”，故选D。 49．推理判断题。分析倒数第二段内容可知，作者用“Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve”公式是为了证明自己的观点，故选A。 50．最佳标题题。本文作者告诉我们只有梦想和目标是不够的，行动才是连接梦想和目标与现实的桥梁。故选C。 （2021·河北·中考真题） My learning record Unit 2 Let’s celebrate!

With wind it steals in night; Mute, it moistens each thing. Over wild lanes dark cloud spreads; In boat a lantern looms. Dawn sees saturated reds; The towns heavy with blooms. — Translated by Xu Yuanchong When Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712～770) wrote this poem, he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes he went to farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers. The very first word, “good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good indeed, as it knows the right time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to know that it should come in time for the farmer’s busy plowing season. When the rain comes, it appears during the night. Unlike the thunder and lightning of summer storms, the quiet spring rain makes its contributions without being known. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy, showing that there will be enough rain during the night. Then the poet imagines: tomorrow morning, all of the flowers in the city will bloom after the rain. 76．What’s the main idea of the poem according to the text? A．The poet’s love for the wind.

It can be difficult to see yourself from the outside, but knowing who you are, namely self-awareness, can help you understand feelings and make friendships closer. Self-awareness means having a good understanding of our own character, that is, having the ability to see ourselves. clearly. If you’re self-aware, you may know that you love playing an instrument because you do well in it, and music makes you happy, or that you prefer watching TV on your own because it helps you relax. Knowing what you like and dislike, what you do well in and what you find difficult allows you to make better decisions about friendships, schoolwork and so on. You learn to trust your own feelings more, which builds confidence. The World Health Organization says self-awareness is one of ten important life skills that help young people live happier, healthier lives. Being self-aware doesn’t mean only thinking of yourself. By understanding your own feelings, you will better understand other people too. How do you lean to be self-aware? It’s a good way to ask questions. But ask yourself questions that start with “What” instead of “Why”. So if you don’t understand why you keep arguing with a friend, ask yourself what you disagree on instead of why you’re arguing. Learning to be more self-aware is a skill, which means you learn it as you grow. So be bold and try out new things, like playing a new sport or listening to different kinds of music. Don’t be afraid to dislike something—discovering what you find difficult is a key part of learning more about yourself. 79．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．What self-awareness is. B．What true happiness is. C．How to find true happiness. D．How to develop self-awareness. 80．Why is knowing yourself important? A．Because it will make you think more of yourself. B．Because it will make you perform better at school. C．Because it will help you learn how to ask proper questions. D．Because it will help you have a better understanding of others. 81．What’s one of the keys to becoming more self-aware? A．Being in high spirits. B．Discovering your weak points. C．Having a taste for pleasant music. D．Learning to get along well with others. 82．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A．It can be hard for you to know yourself well from others. B．It takes a lot of time and energy to develop close friendships. C．It is important and necessary for you to make a right decision. D．It is a must to stick to your opinions when arguing with others. 【答案】 79．A 80．D 81．B 82．A 【导语】 本文介绍了自我意识是什么，它的重要性以及如何学会自我意识。 79．段落大意题。根据“Self-awareness means having a good understanding of our own character”可知，第二段主要介绍了什么是自我意识，故选A。 80．细节理解题。根据“By understanding your own feelings, you will better understand other people too.”可知，因为通过了解自己，也会帮助你更好地理解别人，故选D。 81．细节理解题。根据“Don’t be afraid to dislike something—discovery what you find difficult is a key part of learning more about yourself.”可知，变得更有自我意识的关键是发现自己的弱点，故选B。 82．推理判断题。根据“It can be difficult to see yourself from the outside”可知，你很难从别人那里很好地了解自己，A表述正确，故选A。 （2024·河北邯郸·三模） “Are you cold?” This is a question I’ve heard many times since I came to China. I often wear a light jacket and T-shirt during winter, when most other people are wearing heavy clothing. I understand that people are sometimes confused (困惑的) or worried when I wear so little clothing during winter. But when my Chinese friends refuse to eat or drink cold things, even during the heat of summer, I become the one who is confused. They believe that cold food and drinks might harm their health. Where does this belief (信仰) come from? My friends said their parents taught them that cold food and drinks are bad for your body. One friend even told me that cold liquids, such as ice water, can cause the fat in your stomach to become solid (固体) . But after doing some research of my own, I wasn’t sure if this was truly the case. According to an article I read on Snopes, a website, the food that you eat will quickly match your own internal temperature. This means that it doesn’t matter if you eat something hot or cold. The temperature of the food or drinks will match your own temperature anyway. But on the other hand, when I get sick, my Chinese friends often tell me “drink some hot water and have a good rest”. And I have to say, following this advice often does make me feel better. 83．What makes the writer become confused? A．Wear heavy clothing in winter. B．Saying no to eat or drink cold things.

Is it an easy process for all people? No one’s memory is perfect. Even the smartest people forget things. This does not mean a person has a bad memory. It means he is not using his mind to his advantages. The brain has short-term memory and long-term memory. When we learn something new, it stays in our memory for around 20-30 seconds. This is our short-term memory. It can hold a small amount of information. If we repeat it and use it often, this information can move from short-term memory to long-term memory, which is the place where memories are stored for a long time. The skill for remembering is moving information from short-term to long-term memory. No one knows exactly how this happens. But one thing is for sure—practising, or making repetition of information, is one of the most popular methods of remembering. And scientists say that long-term memory will never fill up completely with memories in one’s lifetime. Then why do we forget things? Forgetting things that are not important helps our brain to remember things that are important. Our brain is always “cleaning out” useless information to make room for something more useful. If you are interested in improving your memory, there are lots of simple things you can do, like eating healthily, sleeping well and exercising daily. Besides, it’s also important to challenge your brain. You can play mind games, learn a musical instrument or study a new language. All you need to do is to keep your brain healthy and active. 88．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing facts. C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples. 89．What is one of the most popular ways to remember information according to the passage? A．Listening or writing. B．Practising or asking. C．Listening or speaking. D．Practising or repeating. 90．The last paragraph mainly talks about ________. A．the ways to eat healthily B．the ways to improve our memory C．the reasons for playing mind games D．the reasons for studying a new language 91．Where does the text most probably come from? A．A guide. B．An ad. C．A story book. D．A magazine. 【答案】 88．C 89．D 90．B 91．D 【导语】 本文主要讲述了人的记忆力，包括短期记忆和长期记忆，以及如何通过练习和重复将信息从短期记忆转移到长期记忆，以及如何通过健康饮食、良好的睡眠和每日锻炼等方式来提高记忆力。 88．细节理解题。根据“Are you good at remembering what you’ve learned at school? Is it an easy process for all people?”可知，作者是通过提问的方式开始文章的，故选C。 89．细节理解题。根据“But one thing is for sure—practising, or making repetition of information, is one of the most popular methods of remembering.”可知，练习或重复信息是记忆信息最流行的方法之一，故选D。 90．段落大意题。根据文章最后一段的内容，主要是讲述了如何提高记忆力，包括健康饮食、良好的睡眠和每日锻炼等方式，以及挑战大脑，如玩脑力游戏、学习乐器或学习新语言等，故选B。 91．推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了关于人们的记忆力的相关知识。属于科普类文章。因此推断文章来源于杂志。故选D。 （2024·河北衡水·二模） Many of us like to watch and post short videos.

How would you repair them? Would you make them look modern or restore (修复) them as they were? David I think it’s a good idea to add something modern when restoring broken ancient buildings. In this way, we can help people feel the beauty of ancient buildings. Also, this can make the buildings safe and more comfortable for tourists. In the end, it can help keep culture alive. Liu Xinrui I don’t think we need to repair the broken ancient buildings. Old buildings are always showing the civilization (文明) that built them. These buildings, whether broken by accidents or war, stand for the old civilization. Modern technology can never make that up. Wang Hongjie Old buildings should be restored to how they were before because they show culture and wisdom (智慧) from ancient times. They help pass on the love and pride of a country.

It’s important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. We should try organizing our problems from most important to least important as well as most urgent (紧急的) to least urgent. If some problems are both important and urgent, such as studying for a next-day test, do those tasks first. Once those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent, such as preparing for the final exams. From there, we can work on problems that are less important. Organizing our work this way helps a lot in knowing what to do first and not worrying about the rest. Sometimes we feel stressed because we are not able to complete the task by ourselves. It’s better to ask someone for help. If we stick to doing these tasks ourselves, it can make us more stressed and upset. Open your mouth bravely, and someone must give you a hand. Still, sometimes we don’t feel relaxed even after organizing our work well. That’s okay. We can try to plan some exercise in our daily life. It doesn’t even have to be a big trip to the gym, although that surely helps. It could be something as small as walking around the neighborhood for 10 minutes. Also, we can try different activities together with our family members or friends. We can try meditation (冥想). Again, this does not need to be anything special. Just set aside 10to 20 minutes with a timer, sit upright, close your eyes, and focus only on breathing. If other ideas come up, accept that they are there and let them fall away on their own. By trying these steps, we will go a long way toward feeling relaxed and peaceful when finishing all of the work. 104．In which order should we organize our tasks? a. Both important and urgent tasks.          b. Less important tasks. c. Important but not urgent tasks.           d. Neither important nor urgent tasks. A．a→b→c→d B．a→c→b→d C．d→c→b→a D．d→b→c→a 105．What does Paragraph 3 tell us? A．Always complete the tasks by ourselves. B．We can tell the truth to other people. C．Try to give a helping hand to others. D．We should ask for help sometimes. 106．What does the writer advise us to do to relax in Paragraph 4? A．Go on a big trip. B．Take a walk around. C．Spend time organizing our work well. D．Do the same activity every day. 107．What should we do when other ideas come up during meditation? A．Lie down and set a timer. B．Try to breathe gently. C．Just leave them alone. D．Open and then close our eyes. 108．Which can be a proper title for the text? A．Ways of Organizing Tasks B．Advice on Dealing with Stress C．Advantages of Taking Exercise D．Keys to Keeping a Peaceful Mind 【答案】 104．B 105．D 106．B 107．C 108．B 【导语】 本文介绍了感到工作的压力时，如何解决问题和找到方法去放松。 104．细节理解题。根据“If some problems are both important and urgent, such as studying for a next-day test, do those tasks first. Once those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent, such as preparing for the final exams.”可知，如果有些问题既重要又紧急，比如准备第二天的考试，那就先做这些任务。一旦这些都完成了，就去做一些重要但不紧急的事情，比如准备期末考试。所以既重要又紧急排在第一，然后是重要但不紧急的事情，前两个是a→c，故选B。 105．段落大意题。根据“Sometimes we feel stressed because we are not able to complete the task by ourselves. It’s better to ask someone for help. If we stick to doing these tasks ourselves, it can make us more stressed and upset. Open your mouth bravely, and someone must give you a hand.”可知，本段建议感到压力且不能自己解决时，可以找人寻求帮助。故选D。 106．细节理解题。根据“We can try to plan some exercise in our daily life.”和“Also, we can try different activities together with our family members or friends.”可知，本段建议在日常生活中计划一些锻炼，可以和家人或朋友一起尝试不同的活动。故选B。 107．细节理解题。根据“If other ideas come up, accept that they are there and let them fall away on their own.”可知，如果有其他想法出现，接受它们的存在，让它们自己消失。故选C。 108．最佳标题题。本文介绍了感到工作的压力时，如何解决问题和找到方法去放松，选项B“应对压力的建议”符合主题，故选B。 （2024·河北承德·二模）(Scott is asking for a job at a trading company.)

Success leads to success, and failure repeats failure. But by taking small steps, we all can be a better one. Here are three practical examples. Tidying your house. No matter how large or small a house you have, you may often delay the “spring clean” again and again until the summer comes. A big clean is seldom enjoyable, but you can tell yourself, “Today, I will do the bedroom, and nothing more.” Or, “I will do the chairs this morning, and the tables this afternoon.” It will probably take you longer, but it gets done. Sporting achievement. To many people around the world, running a marathon (马拉松) is usually something impossible. But anything is simply one small step after another. Those great runners often repeat, “Just to the top of that hill,” or, “Just one more mile,” over and over—until one mile becomes 26.2 miles. Changing your character (性格). There’s a lot of truth in the power (力量) of habit. When we do a thing over and over, our brains will form a fixed mind-set. It’s impossible to “be kind” overnight. It takes small change step by step. So, try to do one kind thing before lunch. Do another one before you go to bed. Over time, you will easily and habitually do kind things one day. You’ve become kind. Rome was not built in a day and so does making changes. Slowly, slowly and over great time, great things can be done. 117．What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A．Everyone can be a better one.
