After that, Orion wanted to make an even bigger impact (影响). Working with others, he packed meal bags for people in need with a kind message in each bag. Orion also organized several events in his community. In all, he collected more than 100,000 meals!

The swan is a large, beautiful bird with a long neck, big white wings and wide feet. It is a great flyer because of its strong wings. It is also a good swimmer, swimming quickly and nicely through the water. But on dry land, it’s a different story—the swan’s heavy body and slow walk make it look a bit funny!
Swans live anywhere there is fresh water, like lakes and slow-moving rivers. They eat water plants and small fish. Swans are very territorial (地盘性的), which means that they protect their homes against any strangers. When swans want to look strong, they stand up tall, show their long necks and open their big wings while letting out big noises.
In spring, swans make a nest (巢) of tree leaves near the water. They often use the same nest year after year, repairing it when egg laying time comes round. The mother swan lays between five and eight eggs in the nest, and then sits on them to keep them warm and safe until about a month later, cygnets are born. Sometimes the father swan will take the first-born cygnets out onto the water while the mother stays to look after the other eggs. The cygnets are looked after by both parents, who will fight other animals, people or even boats if they think their cygnets are in danger!
8. To make them look strong, swans _________.
A. swim quickly B. stand on one leg
C. move their necks often D. open their wings
9. About swans’nests, we know that _________.
A. they build their nests after spring
B. they often use the same nest every year
C. they use the nests just for laying eggs
D. they build their nests under the water

A. They may spend some time with the father.
B. They may be forgotten by the mother.
C. They will stay with the mother as others.
D. They will learn to protect themselves from danger.

【8题详解】
细节理解题。第二段最后一句“ When swans want to look strong, they stand up tall, show their long necks and open their big wings while letting out big noises.”可知,当天鹅要展现自己的强壮时,它们会高高站起来;展示它们伸长的脖子以及大声叫的同时展开它们的大双翅。故选D。

Life is like a journey. None of us can predict the destination (终点) of this journey. During this journey, we will enjoy beautiful scenery and encounter (遭遇) bad weather with thunderstorms. People have different experiences, but in this journey, we all have to face all kinds of situations. No matter what we experience, we should have a dream and hold it until the end of our journey.
We can’t set our goals (目标) too high, which will only make us have no time to enjoy ourselves along the way. Every day, we have to move forward in a hurry, just like climbing countless mountains. When we climb a mountain, there are many higher mountains waiting for us to climb. That way, we are likely to give up our dreams, because it seems impossible for us to reach the peak (顶峰). We should start from own reality and enjoy the beauty of life. We should not only live for our goals, but also live for ourselves.
Learn to love. During the journey of life, we are not alone. There are many people with us, family, friends, teachers and so on. They give us love and care and we should love and respect them, including strangers. Be nice to others, and the world will be nice to us.
Treat the journey of life calmly and patiently, wait for the flowers to bloom and fall, and enjoy the clouds. The beauty of peace of mind is even more fascinating. A calm heart is like a clear blue sky without dark clouds, like a pool of clear water without any pollution, and like the light on green leaves, giving us hope and courage.
All in all, we should cherish (珍惜) everyone, everything and every scenery we see. Life is too short. Be kind to yourself, live in the present and let life show its beauty, because we only have one life. Please feel the scenery along the way with your heart!
12. Why can’t we set our goal too high?
A. Because high goals are too easy.
B. Because high goals are so difficult to achieve that we would give them up.
C. Because high goals are hard to set.
D. Because high goals make us climb countless mountains.
13. During our journey of life, whom should we love and respect?
A. Parents. B. Strangers. C. Friends. D. All of the above.
14. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?

【13题详解】

14题详解】
篇章结构题。根据“No matter what we experience, we should have a dream and hold it until the end of our journey.”可知,第一段引出主题:生活中无论我们经历什么,我们都要有梦想并且坚持到最后;第二段到第四段分别论述不要定太高的目标、学会爱和冷静耐心地对待旅程,三段是并列关系;最后一段“All in all, we should cherish everyone, everything and every scenery we see...”总结全文。因此文章正确的结构是总—分—总。故选C。
【15题详解】
最佳标题题。根据最后一段“All in all, we should cherish (珍惜) everyone, everything and every scenery we see...Please feel the scenery along the way with your heart!”可知,我们应该珍视身边的人和物,用心感受沿途的风景。因此,B选项最为贴切。故选B。

He calls his campaign (活动) the Race to Kindness.
When a teacher told him about the competition, Orion had only 24 hours to write, memorize, and record his speech.

After that, Orion wanted to make an even bigger impact (影响). Working with others, he packed meal bags for people in need with a kind message in each bag. Orion also organized several events in his community. In all, he collected more than 100,000 meals!

The swan is a large, beautiful bird with a long neck, big white wings and wide feet. It is a great flyer because of its strong wings. It is also a good swimmer, swimming quickly and nicely through the water. But on dry land, it’s a different story—the swan’s heavy body and slow walk make it look a bit funny!
Swans live anywhere there is fresh water, like lakes and slow-moving rivers. They eat water plants and small fish. Swans are very territorial (地盘性的), which means that they protect their homes against any strangers. When swans want to look strong, they stand up tall, show their long necks and open their big wings while letting out big noises.
In spring, swans make a nest (巢) of tree leaves near the water. They often use the same nest year after year, repairing it when egg laying time comes round. The mother swan lays between five and eight eggs in the nest, and then sits on them to keep them warm and safe until about a month later, cygnets are born. Sometimes the father swan will take the first-born cygnets out onto the water while the mother stays to look after the other eggs. The cygnets are looked after by both parents, who will fight other animals, people or even boats if they think their cygnets are in danger!
8. To make them look strong, swans _________.
A. swim quickly B. stand on one leg
C. move their necks often D. open their wings
9. About swans’nests, we know that _________.
A. they build their nests after spring
B. they often use the same nest every year
C they use the nests just for laying eggs
D. they build their nests under the water

A. the swan nests B. the father swans
C. the baby swans D. the mother swans
11. What will the first-born cygnets usually do once they are born?
A. They may spend some time with the father.
B. They may be forgotten by the mother.
C. They will stay with the mother as others.
D. They will learn to protect themselves from danger.

Life is like a journey. None of us can predict the destination (终点) of this journey. During this journey, we will enjoy beautiful scenery and encounter (遭遇) bad weather with thunderstorms. People have different experiences, but in this journey, we all have to face all kinds of situations. No matter what we experience, we should have a dream and hold it until the end of our journey.
We can’t set our goals (目标) too high, which will only make us have no time to enjoy ourselves along the way. Every day, we have to move forward in a hurry, just like climbing countless mountains. When we climb a mountain, there are many higher mountains waiting for us to climb. That way, we are likely to give up our dreams, because it seems impossible for us to reach the peak (顶峰). We should start from own reality and enjoy the beauty of life. We should not only live for our goals, but also live for ourselves.
Learn to love. During the journey of life, we are not alone. There are many people with us, family, friends, teachers and so on. They give us love and care and we should love and respect them, including strangers. Be nice to others, and the world will be nice to us.
Treat the journey of life calmly and patiently, wait for the flowers to bloom and fall, and enjoy the clouds. The beauty of peace of mind is even more fascinating. A calm heart is like a clear blue sky without dark clouds, like a pool of clear water without any pollution, and like the light on green leaves, giving us hope and courage.
All in all, we should cherish (珍惜) everyone, everything and every scenery we see. Life is too short. Be kind to yourself, live in the present and let life show its beauty, because we only have one life. Please feel the scenery along the way with your heart!
12. Why can’t we set our goal too high?
A. Because high goals are too easy.
B. Because high goals are so difficult to achieve that we would give them up.
C. Because high goals are hard to set.
D. Because high goals make us climb countless mountains.
13. During our journey of life, whom should we love and respect?
A. Parents. B. Strangers. C. Friends. D. All of the above.
14. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Be calm and patient B. Enjoy our journey of life
C. Love everyone around us D. Never give up our dreams

You may know about “junk food” like French fries. But do you know about “junk sleep”?
A British survey shows that there are many electronic (电子) products in teenagers’ bedrooms. They are influencing teenagers’sleep badly.
The survey was done among 1000 British kids from 12 to 16. It is found that 50% of them got just 4 to 7 hours’ sleep every day. But doctors say they need 8 to 9 hours.
Almost 25% of the kids said they often fell asleep while they were watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic products.
“This is very worrying,” said Dr. Chris, a British professor (教授), “We call it ‘junk sleep’. It means you don’t get enough sleep and the quality (质量) of the sleep is low, too.” The survey found that quite a few of the kids felt tired each day because of the junk sleep, especially girls between 13 and 16. Nearly all the teenagers have a phone, music player or TV in their bedrooms. And lots of them even have all the three.
Dr. Chris suggested that parents should help their children keep away from electronic products, and that teenagers should spend less time on the electronic products.
