Linda is looking through the website http://www.keepingfit.com. Here is what she reads.
Researchers have found the health benefits of dancing for people in poor health condition, from improving brain health to creating community.
Becky is teaching a group of 80 adults some dancing skills. Many of her students are seated in the dancing room because they have difficulty in moving. When they are following Becky’s pretty movements, a sense of peace comes over them.
Dance as a medicine
Helen, a researcher, says that dance requires different parts of the brain to work at the same time, that is to say, dance requires more “brain power” than simpler repetitive (重复的)exercises.
She invited two groups of adults to take part in programmes for over six months. One group practised dancing and the other did a traditional exercise like cycling. Both groups improved their level of physical fitness, but the group of dancers improved more cognitive abilities, such as memory, attention and high-level thinking.
Dance described by Helen as “pleasure double-play” can lift the mood and reduce stress.
Dance as body acceptance
Besides the physical and mental benefits, dance can also help people with diseases accept what their bodies can and can’t do.
Jenny is Becky’s student. Her body went numb when she was in her mid-twenties. She had no feelings from the knees down. She suffered from serious muscle tightness and balance problems, making standing and walking difficult for her.
Jenny recently joined an online dance programme. Not only has it improved her coordination (协调性). but it has enabled her to overcome her fear of being judged (评价)for how she moves, both in the dance class and out in the world.
“I see so many people moving like me,” she says “I don’t have to be perfect in my dancing or make sure my leg lifts this way—it makes me comfortable with where I am right now.”
Dance as community
Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of dance is the sense of community it creates. Dancing with others not only makes people feel less different in their moving abilities, but also helps to fight against loneliness and problems in getting along with others.
Becky started teaching more than 22 years ago, and she has helped 300 communities in 28 countries around the world. In some countries, such as India and South Kores, people have put their own cultural dance styles into their classes.
Becky wants to create a sense of family and community for this group of people. Whenever and wherever she teaches, she hopes to make them feel joyful, get much closer to the community, and explore the limitless possibilities for the rest of their lives.
42. In which part of the website may you find this passage?
A. Culture. B. Fashion. C. Health. D. Literature,
43. From “Dance as a medicine” part, we can learn that _____.
A. the act of dancing helps to improve “brain power”
B. the act of traditional exercise requires more attention
C. dance needs more high-level thinking to lift the mood
D. dance needs more repetitive exercises than “brain power”
44. How do you understand the underlined part of this passage?
A. Jenny feels sad because she is weak in dancing.
B. Jenny wants to be perfect after practising dancing.
C. Jenny accepts the disabilities of her body after dancing.
D. Jenny thinks she should treat her leg for better dancing.

The police have many ways of catching criminals. One way of catching them is by fingerprinting. Fingerprinting is the study of the patterns on our fingertips. We have known that no two fingerprints are exactly the same for hundreds of years. However, it wasn’t until 1910 that the first criminal in the USA was convicted(被判有罪)using fingerprint evidence.
Early on the morning of September 19, 1910, Hiller’s wife noticed that the light which they usually left on was off. When Hiller went to find out what was happening, he saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. The stranger had broken in and wanted to steal. Hiller and the stranger started to fight, but the stranger had a gun. He shot Hiller twice and ran away.
Hiller’s wife ran to Hiller when she heard the gunshots but found him dead. So she called the police. Soon after, the police caught Thomas Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house.
The only problem was no one saw the criminal. However, the police had started using fingerprinting at that time. According to Hiller’s wife, only several hours before Hiller’s death, he had painted some wood near the kitchen window. Then the police checked the wood completely and found some fingerprints in the wet paint.
During the trial(审判), the police proved that the fingerprints belonged to Jennings, and he was convicted of Hiller’s murder. Since then, fingerprinting has helped in the conviction of hundreds of thousands of criminals.
32. What helped the police convict the murderer of Hiller?
A. B. C. D.
33. Which paragraph shows how Hiller was killed?
A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4.
34. What is the right order of the case?
①The stranger shot Hiller twice and ran away.
②Jennings was convicted of Hiller’s murder.
③Hiller saw a stranger at the top of the stairs.
④Hiller painted some wood near the kitchen window.
⑤The police found Jennings’ fingerprints in the wet paint.
⑥The police caught Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house.
A ③→④→①→⑤→⑥→② B. ③→④→⑤→①→②→⑥
C. ④→③→①→⑤→②→⑥ D. ④→③→①→⑥→⑤→②
35. How does the writer end the passage?
A. By drawing a conclusion. B. By providing a surprise ending,
C. By leading in a question. D. By showing an endless discussion.

Just one bite of cake with eggs is enough to make John feel very sick. Susan gets a terrible skin(皮肤)problem whenever she seafood, and David nearly died when he first ate a peanut cookie The body’s reaction(反应)to certain foods can be quite serious resulting in breathing problems or even the death. There are many things we eat that may cause our bodies to react badly if we have a food allergy(过敏).
There are three common ways to test food allergies. Probably the simplest way is to give a child a food test. The doctor watches the child eat a little certain food to see if the child has an allergic reaction. This method takes quite a long time so it is used less often than the other two methods—skin tests and blood tests. In a skin test, a doctor puts allergens under the child’s skin and then waits to see if the child’s skin reacts. In a blood test, doctors take some of the child’s blood and add allergens to it and then check the blood.
Dr. Jennifer from Stanford University spent 10 years studying the methods. She found a surprising fact. Skin tests or blood tests given to patients who visited their doctor for treatment of skin problems or stomachaches showed that these patients were allergic to certain foods. However, later tests showed that although they tested positive(阳性), fewer than 50 percent of them actually had food allergies. The problem might be food intolerance(不耐受)instead of a food allergy.
Food allergies have something to do with a person’s immune system, while food intolerance has something to do with a person’s digestive system and the reaction is usually less serious. One of the most common kinds of food intolerance happens to people who have trouble taking in the sugar in food like milk, cheese and ice cream.
Though allergy tests may show false positive results, they are still useful and can save lives. Some children’s food allergies may disappear as they grow older, so even though doctors don’t cure food allergies, sometimes the body itself does.
40. The underlined word “allergens” refers to(指的是)_______.
A. something that hurts people’s skin B. something that protects people’s skin
C. something that prevents an allergic reaction D. something that causes an allergic reaction
41. What can we learn from Dr. Jennifer’s study?
A. Patients who tested positive may have food intolerance.
B. Skin tests are much better than blood tests.
C. Stomachaches are usually caused by food allergies.
D. People with food intolerance should avoid food with sugar.
42. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Food allergy—Can we cure it? B. Food allergy—How to test it.
C. Food allergy tests—Can we trust them? D. Food allergy tests—How to improve them.

After the haircut
It’s getting hot. You go to have your hair cut. The barber Tony cuts off part of your hair and sweeps it away, but your hair’s journey is not over after the haircut.
Have you ever thought of planting your old hair after it’s cut off? Some farmers do! What comes up? Not wigs(假发), but bigger and tastier crops. Hair is full of nitrogen(氮)that helps plants to grow. When cut hair is mixed into soil, the hair breaks down, slowly letting out nitrogen so it can help flowers and vegetables got big a little faster.
If you’ve got a wool sweater on, you’re wearing a sheep’s haircut. Sheep grow fine curly(弯曲的)fur called wool. All those curls make air pockets that trap heat, keeping the sheep warm. Farmers shear the sheep in summer, so the sheep don’t feel too hot. And we use the hair to make warm clothes, socks, and hats. Wool can even take in rain without feeling wet. Wool also doesn’t catch fire easily.
What does your hair say about you? Even many years after it has been cut, hair can tell surprising secrets. Because hair is made from bits of old cells, it has trace(微量)of chemicals(化学物质)that were in the body when the hair grew. When people are kept in the situation of dangerous chemicals, these traces remain in the hair, even long after they have disappeared from the body itself. Testing hair can help doctors know if there are dangerous chemicals in the food and water. Hair can tell another important secret—whose hair is it? This can be used to help solve crimes.
Hair does so many things for us. It keeps us warm and cool, helps farmers, shows mysteries, and provides endless styling fun. One thing is for sure, it’s not just for wigs any more.
36. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage?
A. History. B. Fashion. C. Science. D. Health.
37 How does hair help plants to grow?

My friend Julie and I are keen on creating a beautiful green town.
Gardening Course
Every September, our city has a special festival. Crowds of happy people go to the park, waving ribbons in their hands. That’s because the gardening competition takes place there.
For Julie and me, it was a pity that we couldn’t take part in the competition, for that was also the first day of our high school. We buried ourselves in choosing courses. We wanted to learn all about plants, gardening and farming. Finally, a course called Agriculture and Wildlife came into our sight. We thought it would help us succeed as gardeners.
Project presentation
After a year’s study, Julie advised me to give a presentation. There was a small plastic model of my idea on the table. On the other side of the table, my teachers were waiting to see my project—the green farm.
“Good morning!” I said “During my studies I’ve learned a lot about city farming. Now. I want to do something with what I’ve learned.”
I showed them the model. “This is the high street of our town. This is an old, nine-floor car park. No one has used it for the last two years and it’s now for sale.”
I continued the presentation. They could see my designs on the big screen when I talked.
“I’ve designed a city farm using the car park building. There will be eight floors to farm fruit and vegetables. This design can help us collect rainwater to wet the soil. And we can also use energy from the sun to power the special growing lights. “
“I will hire the space out to local people and they will sell everything good enough for the environment in local shops. Also, the ninth floor will be for those who want to grow their own plants.”
My audience looked interested and my project got the highest marks in my class. But in the real world. it couldn’t happen because the car park was not available.
▲
Later, Julie helped me search the town for the perfect place for gardening, not in front of the Town Hall or the shopping centre. We tried to look for something different. Somewhere that was not the best neighbourhood, but a poor one. One where the road was full of boles and the pavement (人行道)was all broken. At last, we made it.
In the neighbourbood, we posted letters through people’s doors with gardening instructions. More and more people cared about that and began to plant vegetable gardens.
Then in the same neighbourhood, we put grass over those broken old pavements for the kids to play on. Finally, we put up a sign that said, “Have fun here.”
When we finished, we were both covered in soil and completely exhausted. But Julie put an arm around my shoulders and smiled. “Not bad!” she said. “We can do more to make our town greener!”.

In March 2006, burglars broke into a zoo in Queensland, Australia. They planned to steal a koala. Everybody loves koalas, right? With their big round eyes, flat noses, thick fur coat and hairy ears, these cute animals have become a popular symbol of Australia. However, appearances can be tricky. The koala at the zoo was very fierce. Soon the burglars had deep scratches(抓痕)from the koala’s sharp claws(爪), so they decided to steal something easier. They stole a crocodile instead!
Koalas are interesting animals. A koala mother carries her baby, called a joey, in a warm pouch, or pocket, on her stomach. Koalas eat only the oily leaves of eucalyptus trees(桉树). These leaves are harmful to many other animals, but koalas eat about two and a half pounds(just over one kilo)every night. There is enough water in these leaves, so koalas do not drink very much. In fact, in one local Australian language the word koala means “no drink”.

Some people think creativity is making something completely new, so they do not think of themselves as creative ones. However, some other people think creativity can just be expressing themselves through everyday acts and they are born creative because it is not an all-or-nothing quality or skill.
Whether or not we realize it, we all have the ability to express creativity. Sometimes the path to creative productivity is being willing to do something different.
Are you someone who loves to read comics? Perhaps it is time you create one of your own. Don’t worry if you cannot draw very well or feel that you cannot write humorous reports for characters. Nobody says this is an exam! You only have to please yourself, to gain the satisfaction that you try something new, all on your own. If you feel easy, you can of course share it with our loved ones, or post it on social media,
Are you someone who likes to express yourself in writing? Try writing a blog. This is like the new version of a diary. In your blog, you can write about your thoughts, opinions and experiences. You can also write stories or plays, if you feel up to it! The blog provides you with a platform to create something new every day, in written forms.
Are you someone who likes to be alone? Now, think about the things that make you happy. Find a small place in your room, or any place in your home, where you can spend time with yourself. It can be a small corner next to your bed or a wall. It can be a poster of your favourite rock star or photos of your friends. You can also pick a guitar if you like to play instruments, or a few storybooks if you love reading. Some of you may like flowers, candles or pretty things. Decorate your area with your favourite things in any way you like. That is creativity! And if you do feel bored with this, you can change, add or remove something.
By realizing the chances in our daily lives to inspire our creativity, no matter how small, we may become more comfortable with taking bigger creative leaps in other aspects of our lives.

Skipping to victory
Zhou Qi is a 17-year-old student from Hangzhou. Zhejiang. Last September he broke the Guinness(吉尼斯)World Record for the most single skips in one minute, with a result of 374. The record had stood unbroken for ten years. Daisuke Mimura from Japan held it with 348 skips in 2013.
Interestingly, Zhou’s new record is not even his personal best. “My best performance was 396 times in one minute. That was done in the 2nd Primary and Secondary School Students’ Rope Skipping Championship in 2020. My coach said I had already broken the world record. It was at that time that I made up my mind to apply for the Guinness World Record,” Zhou said.
However, the road to success was far from smooth. For years, Zhou practised with a special steel rope designed for competítion. It’s light and strong. But because of the rope he used, his first Guinness application was considered invalid(无效). After online communication with the records management team, Zhou quickly changed to a common rope recognized(认证)by the Guinness World Records. He soon got used to it.
Whatever kind of rope Zhou used, his strict training stood him in good sporting condition. Zhou has been in the school rope skipping team for seven years. He has jumped rope for about four hours each day. He would also run around the playground to improve his physical strength.
Now a high school student, Zhou said he’ll put his studies first. But he won’t stop training and still hopes to beat his own record one day.

She became interested in Wheat Straw Painting when she was 16 years old. In 2015, she set up her own workroom. Now, Zhang Li realizes that Wheat Straw Painting is what she wants to do for the rest of her life.
She collects lots of wheat straw in the countryside. She dries the straw in the sun and then cuts it by hand. Colorful straws, like red, orange and brown can be found in her artworks. “They are all natural.” Zhang Li said. Different colors make her paintings beautiful.
In order to develop Wheat Straw Painting, she came up with the idea of mixing it with other traditional Chinese art. So she spent two years learning Suzhou embroidery(苏绣)from some famous artists.
One of her greatest works is a bird among flowers. It took her the whole year to finish it. The bird’s smooth-shiny and colorful feathers are made of wheat straw, while the flowers are made of silk. “In my works, you will find paintings and embroideries mix well.” said Zhang Li.
Through great effort, Zhang Li successfully brought Wheat Straw Painting to people’s attention. She said, “What I have done is just the very beginning. There is still a long way to go.”

专题03-2 阅读理解之说明文

(2024·江苏南通·中考统考真题D篇)
Linda is looking through the website http://www.keepingfit.com. Here is what she reads.
Researchers have found the health benefits of dancing for people in poor health condition, from improving brain health to creating community.
Becky is teaching a group of 80 adults some dancing skills. Many of her students are seated in the dancing room because they have difficulty in moving. When they are following Becky’s pretty movements, a sense of peace comes over them.
Dance as a medicine
Helen, a researcher, says that dance requires different parts of the brain to work at the same time, that is to say, dance requires more “brain power” than simpler repetitive (重复的)exercises.
She invited two groups of adults to take part in programmes for over six months. One group practised dancing and the other did a traditional exercise like cycling. Both groups improved their level of physical fitness, but the group of dancers improved more cognitive abilities, such as memory, attention and high-level thinking.
Dance described by Helen as “pleasure double-play” can lift the mood and reduce stress.
Dance as body acceptance
Besides the physical and mental benefits, dance can also help people with diseases accept what their bodies can and can’t do.
Jenny is Becky’s student. Her body went numb when she was in her mid-twenties. She had no feelings from the knees down. She suffered from serious muscle tightness and balance problems, making standing and walking difficult for her.
Jenny recently joined an online dance programme. Not only has it improved her coordination (协调性). but it has enabled her to overcome her fear of being judged (评价)for how she moves, both in the dance class and out in the world.
“I see so many people moving like me,” she says “I don’t have to be perfect in my dancing or make sure my leg lifts this way—it makes me comfortable with where I am right now.”
Dance as community
Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of dance is the sense of community it creates. Dancing with others not only makes people feel less different in their moving abilities, but also helps to fight against loneliness and problems in getting along with others.
Becky started teaching more than 22 years ago, and she has helped 300 communities in 28 countries around the world. In some countries, such as India and South Kores, people have put their own cultural dance styles into their classes.
Becky wants to create a sense of family and community for this group of people. Whenever and wherever she teaches, she hopes to make them feel joyful, get much closer to the community, and explore the limitless possibilities for the rest of their lives.
42. In which part of the website may you find this passage?
A. Culture. B. Fashion. C. Health. D. Literature,
43. From “Dance as a medicine” part, we can learn that _____.
A. the act of dancing helps to improve “brain power”
B. the act of traditional exercise requires more attention
C. dance needs more high-level thinking to lift the mood
D. dance needs more repetitive exercises than “brain power”
44. How do you understand the underlined part of this passage?
A. Jenny feels sad because she is weak in dancing.
B. Jenny wants to be perfect after practising dancing.
C. Jenny accepts the disabilities of her body after dancing.
D. Jenny thinks she should treat her leg for better dancing.
45. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Dancing helps to cure illness B. Dancing helps to better yourself
C. Dancing helps to change moods D. Dancing helps to reduce loneliness
【答案】42. C 43. A 44. C 45. B
【语篇导读】本文主要介绍了跳舞对健康状况不佳的人有益。
42.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。本文主要介绍了跳舞对健康状况不佳的人有益,故文章可能出现在网站的“健康”部分,故选C。
43.【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据“dance requires more ‘brain power’ than simpler repetitive (重复的)exercises.”以及“but the group of dancers improved more cognitive abilities”可知舞蹈比简单的重复性运动需要更多的“脑力”,舞者组提高了更多的认知能力,所以跳舞有助于提高“脑力”,故选A。
44.【答案】C
【解析】词义猜测题。根据“but it has enabled her to overcome her fear of being judged (评价)for how she moves, both in the dance class and out in the world.”以及“I don’t have to be perfect in my dancing or make sure my leg lifts this way—it makes me comfortable with where I am right now.”可知她克服了在舞蹈课上和世界上因她的动作而受到评判的恐惧,所以她不必完美地跳舞,也不必确保她的腿以这种方式抬起——这让她对现在的状态感到舒适,所以珍妮接受了跳舞后身体的残疾,故选C。
45.【答案】B
【解析】主旨大意题(最佳标题)。本文主要介绍了跳舞对健康状况不佳的人有益,以选项B“跳舞有助于提升自己”为标题最合适,故选B。

(2024·江苏徐州·中考统考真题C篇)
The police have many ways of catching criminals. One way of catching them is by fingerprinting. Fingerprinting is the study of the patterns on our fingertips. We have known that no two fingerprints are exactly the same for hundreds of years. However, it wasn’t until 1910 that the first criminal in the USA was convicted(被判有罪)using fingerprint evidence.
Early on the morning of September 19, 1910, Hiller’s wife noticed that the light which they usually left on was off. When Hiller went to find out what was happening, he saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. The stranger had broken in and wanted to steal. Hiller and the stranger started to fight, but the stranger had a gun. He shot Hiller twice and ran away.
Hiller’s wife ran to Hiller when she heard the gunshots but found him dead. So she called the police. Soon after, the police caught Thomas Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house.
The only problem was no one saw the criminal. However, the police had started using fingerprinting at that time. According to Hiller’s wife, only several hours before Hiller’s death, he had painted some wood near the kitchen window. Then the police checked the wood completely and found some fingerprints in the wet paint.
During the trial(审判), the police proved that the fingerprints belonged to Jennings, and he was convicted of Hiller’s murder. Since then, fingerprinting has helped in the conviction of hundreds of thousands of criminals.
32. What helped the police convict the murderer of Hiller?
A. B. C. D.
33. Which paragraph shows how Hiller was killed?
A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4.
34. What is the right order of the case?
①The stranger shot Hiller twice and ran away.
②Jennings was convicted of Hiller’s murder.
③Hiller saw a stranger at the top of the stairs.

Just one bite of cake with eggs is enough to make John feel very sick. Susan gets a terrible skin(皮肤)problem whenever she seafood, and David nearly died when he first ate a peanut cookie The body’s reaction(反应)to certain foods can be quite serious resulting in breathing problems or even the death. There are many things we eat that may cause our bodies to react badly if we have a food allergy(过敏).
There are three common ways to test food allergies. Probably the simplest way is to give a child a food test. The doctor watches the child eat a little certain food to see if the child has an allergic reaction. This method takes quite a long time so it is used less often than the other two methods—skin tests and blood tests. In a skin test, a doctor puts allergens under the child’s skin and then waits to see if the child’s skin reacts. In a blood test, doctors take some of the child’s blood and add allergens to it and then check the blood.
Dr. Jennifer from Stanford University spent 10 years studying the methods. She found a surprising fact. Skin tests or blood tests given to patients who visited their doctor for treatment of skin problems or stomachaches showed that these patients were allergic to certain foods. However, later tests showed that although they tested positive(阳性), fewer than 50 percent of them actually had food allergies. The problem might be food intolerance(不耐受)instead of a food allergy.
Food allergies have something to do with a person’s immune system, while food intolerance has something to do with a person’s digestive system and the reaction is usually less serious. One of the most common kinds of food intolerance happens to people who have trouble taking in the sugar in food like milk, cheese and ice cream.
Though allergy tests may show false positive results, they are still useful and can save lives. Some children’s food allergies may disappear as they grow older, so even though doctors don’t cure food allergies, sometimes the body itself does.
40. The underlined word “allergens” refers to(指的是)_______.
A. something that hurts people’s skin B. something that protects people’s skin
C. something that prevents an allergic reaction D. something that causes an allergic reaction
41. What can we learn from Dr. Jennifer’s study?
A. Patients who tested positive may have food intolerance.
B. Skin tests are much better than blood tests.
C. Stomachaches are usually caused by food allergies.
D. People with food intolerance should avoid food with sugar.
42. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Food allergy—Can we cure it? B. Food allergy—How to test it.
C. Food allergy tests—Can we trust them? D. Food allergy tests—How to improve them.
【答案】40. D 41. A 42. C
【解析】
【语篇导读】本篇为说明文。短文主要介绍了三种常见的方法可以检测食物过敏,虽然过敏测试可能会显示假阳性结果,但它们仍然有用,可以挽救生命。
40.【答案】D
【解析】词义猜测题。根据“In a skin test, a doctor puts allergens under the child's skin and then waits to see if the child’s skin reacts”可知在皮肤测试中,医生将过敏原放在孩子的皮肤下,然后等待孩子的皮肤是否有反应,故此处划线部分指代“引起过敏反应的东西”,故选D。
41.【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据“although they tested positive(阳性), fewer than 50 percent of them actually had food allergies. The problem might be food intolerance(不耐受)instead of a food allergy.”可知检测呈阳性的患者可能存在食物不耐受,故选A。
42.【答案】C
【解析】最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了三种常见的方法可以检测食物过敏,虽然过敏测试可能会显示假阳性结果,但它们仍然有用,可以挽救生命,以选项C“食物过敏测试——我们能相信它们吗”为标题最合适,故选C。

After the haircut
It’s getting hot. You go to have your hair cut. The barber Tony cuts off part of your hair and sweeps it away, but your hair’s journey is not over after the haircut.
Have you ever thought of planting your old hair after it’s cut off? Some farmers do! What comes up? Not wigs(假发), but bigger and tastier crops. Hair is full of nitrogen(氮)that helps plants to grow. When cut hair is mixed into soil, the hair breaks down, slowly letting out nitrogen so it can help flowers and vegetables got big a little faster.
If you’ve got a wool sweater on, you’re wearing a sheep’s haircut. Sheep grow fine curly(弯曲的)fur called wool. All those curls make air pockets that trap heat, keeping the sheep warm. Farmers shear the sheep in summer, so the sheep don’t feel too hot. And we use the hair to make warm clothes, socks, and hats. Wool can even take in rain without feeling wet. Wool also doesn’t catch fire easily.
What does your hair say about you? Even many years after it has been cut, hair can tell surprising secrets. Because hair is made from bits of old cells, it has trace(微量)of chemicals(化学物质)that were in the body when the hair grew. When people are kept in the situation of dangerous chemicals, these traces remain in the hair, even long after they have disappeared from the body itself. Testing hair can help doctors know if there are dangerous chemicals in the food and water. Hair can tell another important secret—whose hair is it? This can be used to help solve crimes.
Hair does so many things for us. It keeps us warm and cool, helps farmers, shows mysteries, and provides endless styling fun. One thing is for sure, it’s not just for wigs any more.
36. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage?
A. History. B. Fashion. C. Science. D. Health.
37 How does hair help plants to grow?
A. It provides nitrogen. B. It breaks down soil. C. It takes in rainwater. D. It lets out a smell.
38. What does the underlined part “shear the sheep” mean?
A. Give enough food to the sheep. B. Wash the sheep many times.
C. Find living place for the sheep. D. Cut the wool off the sheep.
39. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Hair helps keep warm. B. Hair testing is important.
C. Hair can tell secrets. D. Hair helps solve crimes.
40. How is the passage organized? (P: Paragraph)

My friend Julie and I are keen on creating a beautiful green town.
Gardening Course
Every September, our city has a special festival. Crowds of happy people go to the park, waving ribbons in their hands. That’s because the gardening competition takes place there.
For Julie and me, it was a pity that we couldn’t take part in the competition, for that was also the first day of our high school. We buried ourselves in choosing courses. We wanted to learn all about plants, gardening and farming. Finally, a course called Agriculture and Wildlife came into our sight. We thought it would help us succeed as gardeners.
Project presentation
After a year’s study, Julie advised me to give a presentation. There was a small plastic model of my idea on the table. On the other side of the table, my teachers were waiting to see my project—the green farm.
“Good morning!” I said “During my studies I’ve learned a lot about city farming. Now. I want to do something with what I’ve learned.”
I showed them the model. “This is the high street of our town. This is an old, nine-floor car park. No one has used it for the last two years and it’s now for sale.”
I continued the presentation. They could see my designs on the big screen when I talked.
“I’ve designed a city farm using the car park building. There will be eight floors to farm fruit and vegetables. This design can help us collect rainwater to wet the soil. And we can also use energy from the sun to power the special growing lights. “
“I will hire the space out to local people and they will sell everything good enough for the environment in local shops. Also, the ninth floor will be for those who want to grow their own plants.”
My audience looked interested and my project got the highest marks in my class. But in the real world. it couldn’t happen because the car park was not available.
▲
Later, Julie helped me search the town for the perfect place for gardening, not in front of the Town Hall or the shopping centre. We tried to look for something different. Somewhere that was not the best neighbourhood, but a poor one. One where the road was full of boles and the pavement (人行道)was all broken. At last, we made it.
In the neighbourbood, we posted letters through people’s doors with gardening instructions. More and more people cared about that and began to plant vegetable gardens.
Then in the same neighbourhood, we put grass over those broken old pavements for the kids to play on. Finally, we put up a sign that said, “Have fun here.”
When we finished, we were both covered in soil and completely exhausted. But Julie put an arm around my shoulders and smiled. “Not bad!” she said. “We can do more to make our town greener!”.
38. The writer mentioned the gardening competition to _______.
A. change her gardening projects B. express her interest in gardening

In March 2006, burglars broke into a zoo in Queensland, Australia. They planned to steal a koala. Everybody loves koalas, right? With their big round eyes, flat noses, thick fur coat and hairy ears, these cute animals have become a popular symbol of Australia. However, appearances can be tricky. The koala at the zoo was very fierce. Soon the burglars had deep scratches(抓痕)from the koala’s sharp claws(爪), so they decided to steal something easier. They stole a crocodile instead!
Koalas are interesting animals. A koala mother carries her baby, called a joey, in a warm pouch, or pocket, on her stomach. Koalas eat only the oily leaves of eucalyptus trees(桉树). These leaves are harmful to many other animals, but koalas eat about two and a half pounds(just over one kilo)every night. There is enough water in these leaves, so koalas do not drink very much.

Some people think creativity is making something completely new, so they do not think of themselves as creative ones. However, some other people think creativity can just be expressing themselves through everyday acts and they are born creative because it is not an all-or-nothing quality or skill.
Whether or not we realize it, we all have the ability to express creativity. Sometimes the path to creative productivity is being willing to do something different.
Are you someone who loves to read comics? Perhaps it is time you create one of your own. Don’t worry if you cannot draw very well or feel that you cannot write humorous reports for characters. Nobody says this is an exam! You only have to please yourself, to gain the satisfaction that you try something new, all on your own. If you feel easy, you can of course share it with our loved ones, or post it on social media,
Are you someone who likes to express yourself in writing? Try writing a blog. This is like the new version of a diary. In your blog, you can write about your thoughts, opinions and experiences. You can also write stories or plays, if you feel up to it! The blog provides you with a platform to create something new every day, in written forms.
Are you someone who likes to be alone? Now, think about the things that make you happy. Find a small place in your room, or any place in your home, where you can spend time with yourself. It can be a small corner next to your bed or a wall. It can be a poster of your favourite rock star or photos of your friends. You can also pick a guitar if you like to play instruments, or a few storybooks if you love reading. Some of you may like flowers, candles or pretty things. Decorate your area with your favourite things in any way you like. That is creativity! And if you do feel bored with this, you can change, add or remove something.
By realizing the chances in our daily lives to inspire our creativity, no matter how small, we may become more comfortable with taking bigger creative leaps in other aspects of our lives.
34. How does the writer begin the article?

Skipping to victory
Zhou Qi is a 17-year-old student from Hangzhou. Zhejiang. Last September he broke the Guinness(吉尼斯)World Record for the most single skips in one minute, with a result of 374. The record had stood unbroken for ten years. Daisuke Mimura from Japan held it with 348 skips in 2013.
Interestingly, Zhou’s new record is not even his personal best. “My best performance was 396 times in one minute. That was done in the 2nd Primary and Secondary School Students’ Rope Skipping Championship in 2020. My coach said I had already broken the world record. It was at that time that I made up my mind to apply for the Guinness World Record,” Zhou said.
However, the road to success was far from smooth. For years, Zhou practised with a special steel rope designed for competítion. It’s light and strong. But because of the rope he used, his first Guinness application was considered invalid(无效). After online communication with the records management team, Zhou quickly changed to a common rope recognized(认证)by the Guinness World Records. He soon got used to it.
Whatever kind of rope Zhou used, his strict training stood him in good sporting condition. Zhou has been in the school rope skipping team for seven years. He has jumped rope for about four hours each day. He would also run around the playground to improve his physical strength.
Now a high school student, Zhou said he’ll put his studies first. But he won’t stop training and still hopes to beat his own record one day.

Do you often smile? Thank you!
【答案】
Hello, everyone! I’m Li Hua from Class 1, Grade 9. Today I’d like to share a story that happened in my class.
One day, our teacher announced that there would be a math test the next day. Everyone was worried, except for Tom. He was always confident and had a smile on his face. When the test started, I found the questions very difficult and I was stuck. I looked around and saw Tom still smiling. His smile was like a ray of sunshine, making me feel less nervous. After the test, I asked him how he could be so calm. He said, “A smile can make everything better. When you smile, you feel more confident and you can think more clearly.” His words made me realize the power of a smile.
Since then, I have tried to smile more often. When I meet difficulties, I smile and tell myself to be brave. When I see my classmates, I smile to show my friendliness. A smile can really make a difference.
Do you often smile? Thank you!
