What do you think are the biggest changes in your life in the first half of 2024? Feel free to comment(评论) below! Grace June 30,2024 I used to feel lonely, especially when I had a serious illness. I missed my friends and my family very much. However, things are different now because I have a newborn sister this year! She is so lovely. I really enjoy helping my mom take care of her.

In a sports magazine. B As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments. Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains(窗帘)seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the dark would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the “enemy(敌人)” would not discover me. Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get on the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight. Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one. One of the processes(过程)of growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life. 5. The writer had _ kind(s) of fears when she was a child. A. one B. two C. three D. four 6. What would scare the writer at night? A. Streetlights and car lights. B. Strange sights and sounds. C. Walking up and down the room. D. Wild animals and enemies. 7. What would the writer do when she went to some other places? A. She would follow others closely. B. She would take a bus by herself. C. She would walk away without others. D. She would make sure that she wouldn't take a wrong bus. 8. Which of the following would be possibly TRUE when the writer was a child? A. She always got poor grades. B. She was always the leader of others. C. She thought being popular among people was important. D. She was hated by others because she always walked ahead of others. C Mrs. Li is over 80 years old. She has lived in Beijing all her life. A reporter interviewed her yesterday. The following are their questions and answers. Q What was your life like in the past? A My family lived in a tiny house. My father was a postman, and he often worked for twelve hours a day outside in the winter cold or in the summer heat. My mom was a farm girl before she met my father. She was a kind and loving mother. She didn't go out to work. There were five children in my family, and looking after us was more than a full time job. The food we ate was simple. We could only eat meat once or twice a year. I wasn't sent to school because my family couldn't afford(负担得起) the tuition(学费). Q How has life changed? A Families have got smaller than they were in the past. The role of women has changed too. My daughter is really lucky. She has a good education. I'm happy that she can go to work even after getting married, but sometimes I feel lonely because she can't come to see me often. Transport and travel are easier today. When I was young, I went everywhere on foot. Now you can take the bus, drive the car or ride the shared bikes. What I don't like is that there's so much more traffic. It's so difficult to cross the road. And, of course, we have televisions today and I really enjoy watching TV. But I hate some of the shows because they are too noisy for me. Generally speaking, I think life is better today. We eat better and we live longer. 9. What do we know about Mrs. Li's parents? A. They often ate delicious food. B. They both worked hard for the family. C. They had no sons. D. They lived on a farm. 10. What does Mrs. Li think of her daughter? A. Happy. B. Lonely. C. Lucky. D. Rich. 11. When Mrs. Li was young, she usually _if she wanted to go somewhere. A. walked B. drove the car C. rode the bike D. took the bus 12. Which one is TRUE according to the passage? A. Mrs. Li's daughter often visits her. B. Mrs. Li prefers the life in the past. C. All the TV shows are enjoyable for Mrs. Li. D. Mrs. Li can't cross the road easily now. D ①Aaron Whiteside, born in the 1980s, believes that life was better in times gone by. He thinks that people were polite and nice in the 1930s but they are greedy (贪婪的) in modern society. But his friend thinks that living conditions have improved a lot and humans are still kind today. So what do you think? ② Just like Aaron Whiteside, nostalgic people think people lived more happily with less in the past. In the old days, people sat around a table together, sharing food and conversations. But now most UK families spend about 20 minutes on supper before hurrying off. Families know less about each other's lives. There is much more pressure on making a living. ③ Besides, people bought fewer things in the past, which was better for the environment and made people more creative. For example, bands from the 1960s, such as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, were much better than today's. Creative expression is now being lost to technology and greed. ④_ _. In their opinion, both men and women are able to live how they like now. However, women's position was quite low in the past because they were expected to stay at home, looking after babies and doing a lot of housework. Most women led a boring life at that time. ⑤ What's more, it is agreed that children get better education today. That's because there are more schools and colleges in modern society. Thanks to technology development, we live in a shared world where we share information, services and culture, and that teaches us new perspectives (视角). 13. Aaron Whiteside and his friend are mentioned as examples to _. A. explain the importance of being polite and nice B. compare people's lives in different places C. give useful suggestions on keeping friendship D. show different opinions on life now and then 14. The underlined word “nostalgic” in Para. 2 probably means “people who _”. A. long for money B. miss the past C. care about health D. refuse to change 15. Which of the following can be put in the_ _ in Para. 4? A. So, many people prefer to live in the past B. Additionally, life in the past was simple C. However, others hold that life now is fairer D. Actually, people now are much more creative 16. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? 第二节 阅读短文,从方框内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。 There was a little boy living in a city with his parents.

It is a large Chinese community (社区) with a lot of Chinese restaurants, Chinese supermarkets and shops. In the 1950s, it was a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time, the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London to look for work. They found jobs in the restaurants in this area. These restaurant workers often worked for 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English. As more Chinese arrived, more shops and businesses grew. Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and joined their fathers. The community grew, and Chinatown was born. In the 1970s and 1980s, British born Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic (经济的) success to the area. Many families moved out of Chinatown, and there was more space for businesses. Chinatown soon became a popular place for tourists. Now everyone knows about London's Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year, the streets are filled with flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets. For most of the year, though, Londoners and tourists go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants. The best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese eat. 41.
