That is to say, “The best of friends must Part (分离)” This, however, might not always be true. For the six friends in Friends, the “good things”—the friendships (友谊) between them don’t really end. Friends is one of the most popular sitcoms in America. It tells the story of six young people. They come to New York City to find love, success and fun. Each of them is different, but they become friends. Friends was on from 1994 to 2004. After all these years, many people wanted to see the six young people meet on the screen again. And this wish came true in the end. A new special Friends: The Reunion (重聚) came out on May 27, 2021. It has been one of the most anticipated (期待的) TV dramas in 2023. For sure, watching Friends can help you learn English. But you can learn more from it. One thing is how to build true friendships. As Rachel said “Back in the 1990s, there were no smart phones. It was just friends sitting around and talking with each other.” If you want to have lifelong (终身的) friends, don’t just talk with them online.

Be sure to always be there—for your friends.”可知，如果你想拥有终身好友，不要只在网上和他们聊天。一定要确保一直在——为了你的朋友，即：为了建立真正的友谊。故选D。 15．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“But you can learn more from it.

Well, do you know that without two of Bill Gates’ high school teachers, we could live a life like that today. Gates’ math teacher, Fred Wright, asked him to study a little bit harder. And his drama teacher, Anne Stephens helped him become the star of the school play. Gates thanked the two — without them, there would be no Microsoft. Teachers are important. They can make or break a class. A great teacher can make a boring subject interesting while (然而) an exciting subject can be killed by a teacher who isn’t good at teaching. Of all the subjects, math is probably the most difficult. However, a math teacher Matthew Weathers made himself famous on the Internet because he brought excitement into his class successfully. Matthew likes to play pranks on his students. He also likes to make prank videos when he is not busy. Then he puts them on the Internet. Each one is interesting and creative. His most popular video was made on April Fool’s Day. In the video, he pretended (假装) to clean up a stain (污点) on the screen. In fact, to make students laugh, he was interacting (互动) with a video that he recorded earlier. It made him popular in his school.

Gates thanked the two — without them, there would be no Microsoft.”可知，盖茨感谢这两位老师是因为他们帮助盖茨变得更出色。故选C。 17．推理判断题。根据第二段“…Matthew Weathers made himself famous on the Internet because he brought excitement into his class successfully.”可知，马修·韦瑟斯在互联网上出名，因为他成功地给课堂带来了兴奋，因此可以推测出马修的课很精彩。故选B。 18．词句猜测题。根据第三段描述“In the video, he pretended (假装) to clean up a stain (污点) on the screen.”可知，Matthew通过恶作剧来使课堂有趣，所以“play pranks”在文中意为“开玩笑”。故选B。 19．词句猜测题。根据“In fact, to make students laugh, he was interacting (互动) with a video that he recorded earlier.

But AI researchers have been working on computers that can argue and perhaps even win debates (辩论) with humans. IBM scientists recently published a paper in Nature about their new AI system—Project Debater. It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments from its opponent (对手), the system can search around 400 million online articles in less than five minutes. And then it looks for ideas that can support its own argument. Testing on the system began in 2019. When it debated with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for the most debate competition victories. The topic was about subsidizing preschool (资助幼儿园)—and Project Debater argued to support this idea. Although Project Debater lost the debate in the end, the audience said it performed very well. Interestingly, 58 percent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge about the topic—only 20 percent said the same about Natarajan. According to Scientific American, results show that the system is able to form logical statements (有逻辑的陈述). However, ★ . Their goal is to help humans make better decisions, according to Ranit Aharanoy, manager of the Project Debater team. “It can debate both sides, so it can very quickly help you understand both sides of the problem, so you can have a wider view of the problem and make a more thoughtful decision.” Aharanoy said.

When are children old enough to learn about money? You might be surprised by the answer. “Research (研究) shows that children develop (发展) their habits by age seven, ” says Jessica Pelletier, a professor at the research center. “So, we need to start teaching them about healthy money decisions (决定) while they are getting to know about money.” In fact, the research center starts its plan at age six, when most kids are in their first year of primary school. Knowledge about money can’t be learned in a day. It can take a lifetime. “For this reason, we hope that parents can starț talking about money as early as possible.” says Pelletier. By year one, for example, kids should be learning sharing (分享). By year three of primary school, kids should start learning the responsibility (责任) of having pocket money, and by year four, kids should start practising saving money. Usually, children watch how the adults in their lives make money decisions first. Then, parents can begin the conversation with their children about money. The important thing is, if the adults in children’s lives can know more about managing money, they can help their kids understand better. And the best way to keep kids interested in learning about money is through games and fun activities. Here Pelletier shares her experience on teaching these knowledge to kids through play. She takes them on adventures (冒险) such as getting a gift card for their birthday, researching what they want to be when they grow up, and coming along with their big sister as she shops for clothes to watch how and why she makes these decisions. “Playing games about money management is a fun way to learn. Kids can learn while having fun,” she says. 46．When are children old enough to learn about money? A．Only after they are seven. B．When they know how to use money. C．Can be earlier than seven. D．When they go to school. 47．According to the second paragraph, children can ________.

D．Have interesting games and activities. 49．The writer’s writing purpose is to ________. A．ask for teachers’ help B．advertise a research center C．show kids problems of managing money D．help children learn knowledge about money 50．What is the best title of this passage? A．A Fun Way for Learning B．A Terrible Problem of Children C．Impossible for Children to Manage Money D．When Children Learn about Money 【答案】46．C 47．C 48．D 49．D 50．D 【难度】0.4 【知识点】货币及理财、说明文、教育 【导语】本文主要讲述了帮助孩子理解如何管理金钱的重要性。 46．细节理解题。根据Pelletier说的“Research (研究) shows that children develop (发展) their habits by age seven,”和“For this reason, we hope that parents can starț talking about money as early as possible.”可知，孩子们可能早于7岁的时候，就可以学习管理金钱了，故选C。 47．细节理解题。根据“By year one, for example, kids should be learning sharing (分享).”可知，孩子们在很小的时候就可以学会分享，故选C。 48．细节理解题。根据“And the best way to keep kids interested in learning about money is through games and fun activities.

Now, some students in Shenzhen are working to help the birds and learn more about this problem. In March, they made a team to study bird collisions (鸟撞). “Every morning, we walk around buildings with big glass before 9 a. m. That is the high time for bird activity,” Feng Yongyin, 14, said. If they see a bird hit a building, they will take photos of the bird and the place around it. Then, they put the photos onto an app called Biotracks. Scientists can use them to do more study. The students’ careful bird-watching also make the school think about moving the basketball court. That’s because it is a place with many plants and birds. “Once we found a bird’s nest on the floor and put it back. We also set up a camera (摄像头),” says 14-year-old Lan Zijia. Using the camera, they see that many students go into the place to get their balls. “We told the school about this, and the school placed a line to protect the plants and birds.

There is a new idea called Reverse (反向的) Consumption. It means that people no longer blindly buy very expensive things, but pay more attention to the cost performance (性价比). As a result, they are more willing to buy what they really need and compare the prices before buying them. Reverse consumption actually encourages people not to waste. Compared with traditional consumption habits, it refuses to keep buying new goods, and pays more attention to the quality (品质) of them. This idea has already become popular among the young. ★ News such as “young people are not crazy about changing their mobile phones anymore”, “challenging 5-day within 27 yuan” and others have been on the front pages of newspapers. Why are young people changing their ideas and spending less on buying? One of the reasons is that people have a different understanding of quality life. They come to realize that money and goods do not bring true happiness. They start to care more about personal growth, spirit and the building of social relationships. As a result, they begin to focus more on their inner needs, which helps to achieve a more meaningful life. Young people are also caring more about the environment. Blind consumption may cause not only waste but also environmental pollution. So, they begin to play a part in protecting the environment through this new way of consumption. Instead of buying new things from traditional stores, many young people are turning to second-hand markets to find goods that can be reused or recycled. Reverse consumption influences (影响) the market and sellers in turn. The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well. One thing is for sure-goods with higher quality and lower prices win. 61．Which of the following is Reverse Consumption? A．Buying shoes more than you need. B．Buying bags you really need. C．Changing smart phones often. D．Choosing cheap bags only. 62．What leads to Reverse Consumption? A．Being tired of shopping. B．Being afraid to try new things. C．Believing in expensive things. D．Seeing the inner needs. 63．Which of the following can be best put in ★ ? A．And it has made a difference to their buying decisions. B．Because they can’t afford new goods. C．So they are on the way of blind consumption. D．Then they stop to live a hard life. 64．To win young people’s hearts, a company should ________. A．take environmental problems less seriously B．sell environment friendly goods C．offer beautiful goods in poor quality D．put more ads on TV 65．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards Reverse Consumption? A．He can’t understand it. B．He says yes to it. C．He is unsure about it. D．He is against it. 【答案】61．B 62．D 63．A 64．B 65．B 【难度】0.4 【知识点】市场与经济、说明文 【导语】本文主要介绍了年轻人的反向消费观。 61．细节理解题。根据“It means that people no longer blindly buy very expensive things, but pay more attention to the cost performance. As a result, they are more willing to buy what they really need and compare the prices before buying them.”可知，反向消费观意味着人们不再盲目地购买非常昂贵的东西，而是更加注重性价比，因此，他们更愿意买他们真正需要的东西，并在购买之前比较价格。故选B。 62．细节理解题。根据“Why are young people changing their ideas and spending less on buying?...As a result, they begin to focus more on their inner needs, which helps to achieve a more meaningful life.”可知，反向消费观的形成原因是人们开始更多地关注自己的内心需求。故选D。 63．推理判断题。根据“This idea has already become popular among the young.”“young people are not crazy about changing their mobile phones anymore”和“challenging 5-day within 27 yuan”可知，此处说的是反向消费观的具体影响，A项“这对他们的购买决定产生了影响。”符合语境。故选A。 64．推理判断题。根据“Young people are also caring more about the environment.”和“The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well.”可知，现在的年轻人更加注重环保，而企业为了迎合消费者，会售卖环保制品。故选B。 65．观点态度题。根据“Reverse consumption influences the market and sellers in turn. The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well. One thing is for sure-goods with higher quality and lower prices win.”可知，反向消费反过来影响市场和卖家，这些公司必须提高产品质量，提供更好的服务。此处说的是反向消费观的正面影响，因此作者对这种消费观是赞成的。故选B。 Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ (一代) online habits are very different. In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55—64 and 2.9 million over-65s. Sheila, aged 59, says, “I join to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing. I think I’m lucky I get to see so much more of their lives. “ ★ Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site (only 2.2 million users are under 17) but they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. “It’s my alarm clock so I have to, “ she says. “I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon as I wake up.” Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t heard from (得到……的消息) in forty years. “We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she says. “It’s changed my social life completely.” Teenagers spend too much time on their smartphones and social media partly because of their parents. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or laptop all the time. “I was always connected and I felt like I was always working,” he says. “How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?” So, in the evenings and at weekends, he uses an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages instead of smartphones. “That helps me set a better example to my kids and spend more quality time with them.” 66．What is the purpose of paragraph 2? A．To advertise for Facebook. B．To say why she starts to use social media. C．To express her love to her smartphone. D．To show how she contacts friends on social media. 67．Which of the following can be put in “ ★ ”. A．However, Sheila’s grandchildren don’t often use Facebook themselves. B．Sheila’s grandchildren also enjoy the time on social media. C．However, teenagers are still the site’s biggest user group. D．Teenagers spend more and more time on their smartphones. 68．Which of the following is NOT true? A．Teenagers like to keep their phones near them. B．Grandparents use Facebook less than their grandchildren who are under 17. C．Peter found his own smartphone use had a bad influence on his children. D．Teenagers may spend less time with their friends in real life because of their smartphones. 69．The underlined word “That” refers to ________. A．using a smartphone B．being on social media C．joining Facebook D．using an old-style mobile phone 70．The passage mainly talks about ________. A．how social media changes old people’s lives B．why teenagers spend so much time on social media C．different online habits of different generations D．good examples of wise social media users 【答案】66．B 67．A 68．B 69．D 70．C 【难度】0.4 【知识点】微信/微博/短视频、说明文、兴趣社交、家人和亲人 【导语】本文主要讲述了如今的祖父母和孙辈一起使用社交媒体，但不同代人的上网习惯却截然不同，并且举例说明。 66．推理判断题。根据第二段“I join to see what my grandchildren are doing”可知，Sheila使用社交媒体是为了看看孙辈们在做什么。由此推知，第二段的目的是为了解释她为什么开始使用社交媒体。故选B。 67．推理判断题。根据第一段“In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers”和第三段“Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site”可知，在英国，越来越多的55岁以上的人加入了脸书的行列，然而英国17岁以下的儿童正在离开该网站。因此，选项A“然而，Sheila的孙子们自己并不经常使用脸书。”符合语境。故选A。 68．细节理解题。根据第一段“In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55—64 and 2.9 million over-65s.”和第三段“Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site (only 2.2 million users are under 17)”可知，55至64岁的脸书用户有350万，65岁以上的脸书用户有290万，而17岁以下的脸书用户是220万，即祖父母们比他们17岁以下的孙辈们更多地使用脸书。因此，选项B“祖父母们比他们17岁以下的孙辈更少地使用脸书”表述错误。故选B。 69．词义猜测题。根据最后一段“So, in the evenings and at weekends, he uses an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages instead of smartphones. ‘That helps me set a better example to my kids and spend more quality time with them.’”可知，Peter在晚上和周末使用只能打电话和发短信的老式手机，这有助于他为他的孩子树立一个更好的榜样，并与他们共度更多美好时光。由此可知，That指使用老式手机。故选D。 70．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了如今的祖父母和孙辈一起使用社交媒体，但不同代人的上网习惯却截然不同，并且举例说明。故选C。 A new movie named YOLO is becoming a hot topic these days. The main character used to be about one hundred and ten kilos. One day, she decided to try boxing. Within a year, she lost fifty kilos by exercising. She finally became someone she wanted to be. Without doubt, exercise brings people a lot. Exercise helps build muscles (肌肉). Muscle practice like doing push-ups (俯卧撑) is becoming popular in middle schools. It’s a good way to develop muscles and help students grow taller and stronger. For adults, it can make muscles bigger, too. Exercise helps keep the balance of energy in your body. Food gives your body energy in the form of calories (卡路里). Your body needs a certain number of calories every day just to keep you doing the basic things. But if the amount of energy is more than what you need, the result will be unexpected. For example, if you eat more and move less for the whole winter vacation, you will get more calories than your body needs. Calories will turn into fat. Then exercise can help you lose the fat you don’t need. Exercise makes you feel delighted. It feels good to have a strong body that can allow you to do all the activities you enjoy—running, jumping, and playing with your friends. Exercise may also make you feel energetic. That’s why exercise is becoming more and more popular. 71．What was the main character’s weight after exercising for a year in the movie YOLO? A．About 110 kilos. B．About 70 kilos. C．About 60 kilos. D．About 50 kilos. 72．Why is muscle practice becoming popular in middle schools? A．Because it helps students grow up better. B．Because it helps students lose weight quickly. C．Because students like doing push-ups a lot. D．Because it is a good way to make muscles bigger. 73．How does the writer develop Paragraph 3? A．By telling a story. B．By giving an example. C．By listing numbers. D．By asking questions. 74．What does the underlined word “delighted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Weak. B．Wonderful. C．Nervous. D．Terrible. 75．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．A Great Movie Named YOLO B．Ways to Build Muscles C．Exercise—a Good Way to Lose Weight D．Advantages of Exercise 【答案】71．C 72．A 73．B 74．B 75．D 【难度】0.4 【知识点】说明文、健康与运动 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章由影片《热辣滚烫》中的故事引发了锻炼能给人带来哪些好处的思考。锻炼能增长肌肉，保持体内能量平衡，还能让人心情愉悦。 71．推理判断题。根据“The main character used to be about one hundred and ten kilos.”和“Within a year, she lost fifty kilos by exercising.”可知，影片中的主角在一年后体重约为110－50=60千克。故选 C。 72．细节理解题。根据“Muscle practice like doing push-ups is becoming popular in middle schools. It’s a good way to develop muscles and help students grow taller and stronger.”可知，学生在学校做肌肉练习可以帮助他们更好地成长。故选 A。 73．细节理解题。根据“For example, …”可知，作者通过举例的方式来说明锻炼是如何帮助控制人们体内的能量的。故选 B。 74．词义猜测题。根据“feels good”可知，锻炼让人感觉很好、心情愉悦；据此可以推断，划线单词“delighted”意为“愉悦的，高兴的”，与“wonderful”意思相近。故选 B。 75．最佳标题题。综合全文可知，本文主要介绍了锻炼给人带来的好处：锻炼能帮助人们增长肌肉、保持体内能量的平衡以及能让人心情愉悦；选项D“锻炼的好处”适合作为文章的标题。故选D。 Every year almost all of the 330 million tennis balls made worldwide are thrown away. Lots of them end up in landfill, where they can take up to 400 years to decompose (分解). The International Tennis Federation (ITF) is trying to find out if tennis balls can be produced and used in a way that is kinder to the planet. Tennis balls are made from an air- filled rubber core (橡胶芯). They are coated in glue and covered in felt (毛毡) which can’t be recycled. Although rubber can be recycled, the glue that holds the felt covering onto it is so strong that the two can’t be easily separated. The best quality tennis balls are used by the world’s top players. They are usually made from new materials— latex (胶乳). This is a milky sticky material collected from cuts made in rubber trees and mixed with chemicals. Players don’t use tennis balls for very long before they are replaced. In big tennis games, the balls are hit so hard that they are changed after the first seven games, and then every nine games after that. This is to make sure the balls stay smooth and energetic. The ITF has put together a team of scientists to try to find a way to design a fully recyclable tennis ball. They are also testing to see if tennis balls could be used for longer before being replaced. Not all used tennis balls go to waste. The balls used at the Wimbledon championships are sold to the public. Some are given to wildlife charities, which use them as homes for harvest mice. Some are used as dog toys or to make a flooring material for tennis clubs and horse- riding centers. 76．How did the writer lead into his writing? A．By listing facts. B．Through imaging. C．By showing examples. D．Through giving advice. 77．Which of the following material in a tennis ball can be used again? A．Glue. B．Felt. C．Rubber. D．Latex. 78．What does Paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us? A．The tennis balls are used for many times. B．It is a waste if we replaced the tennis balls so often. C．The tennis ball would be changed after the first seven games. D．Players replace the balls to keep them stay in the best condition. 79．What does the ITF do to make the used tennis ball be friendlier to the planet? A．They try to find new materials that could be recycled. B．They make a team of scientists to find ways. C．They test to use the tennis balls more times.

Here I’d like to share something with other parents. I have learned that little kids are dogs, while teenagers are cats. It’s easy to be a dog owner. You feed it and train it, and it will put its head on your knee gently. Whenever you call it, it will run to you with great warmth. Then around age 13, your lovely little puppy turns into a big old cat. When you ask it to come inside, it looks surprised, wondering why you give such an order. It may turn its nose up at the meal you’re offering. When you reach out to touch its head, it will stay away from you, as if trying to hide its own secrets. The kid now is not a dog any more. It thinks something in a totally different way. It seems so strange. Maybe it even doesn’t want to go out with its family members. You may think that you’ve done something wrong, because you are the one who raises (抚养) it and stays with it all the time. Filled with guilt (内疚) and fear, you make an effort (努力) to make your pet under your control (控制), but the result always turns out (结果是) to be disappointing. Instead of being like a dog owner, you should learn to act like a cat owner. Put a dish of food near the door, and let it come to you. But remember that a cat also needs your heal (治愈) and your love. You need to tell it there is a door which is always open for it. One day, your grown-up child will walk into the kitchen, give you a big kiss and say, “Let me get those dishes for you.” 91．From Paragraph 2, we can know that ________.

When you ask it to come inside, it looks surprised, wondering why you give such an order.”以及“When you reach out to touch its head, it will stay away from you, as if trying to hide its own secrets.”可知，这里通过将青少年比作猫，猫对外界事物有一定的警惕性，它们有自我保护的意识，所以在你给它们食物的时候，它们会在吃之前检查，确保安全。故选D。 93．细节理解题。根据“It thinks something in a totally different way. It seems so strange.”和“You may think that you’ve done something wrong, because you are the one who raises (抚养) it and stays with it all the time.”可知，当青少年时期的孩子变得与之前不一样时，父母可能总是认为是他们哪里做得不对。故选A。 94．推理判断题。根据第二段“I have learned that little kids are dogs, while teenagers are cats.”以及“Instead of being like a dog owner, you should learn to act like a cat owner... But remember that a cat also needs your heal (治愈) and your love. You need to tell it there is a door which is always open for it.”可知，作者通过比喻说明孩子从小狗到大猫的成长过程，对于青少年，要像对待猫那样给予更多的独立和空间，而不是像对待狗那样直接控制，父母应该根据孩子的不同年龄阶段采取不同的养育方式。故选B。 95．主旨大意题。文章主要探讨了随着孩子从儿童成长为青少年，父母与孩子之间的关系如何变化，以及父母如何适应这种变化，通过改变养育策略来维持和加强与孩子的关系。故选D。 It is not an easy job to be a good parent.

A study shows that fast walking has become the most popular exercise in China and many people walk more than 5,000 steps a day. The results of the study are from QQ users. About 37% of the people choose fast walking as their favorite exercise; over 23% choose running and more than 14% choose riding bikes. Fast walking and running are easy, cost little and work well, so they are popular. And many people prefer doing exercise in nature (大自然) than going to gyms. It's best to walk fast for at least 10 minutes at one time and walk up to 6,000 steps every day. The study also shows that people in Guiyang, Guizhou love sports most. On average (平均), everyone there walks 5,941 steps every day.

The place for the tennis finals is called the “Small Lotus (莲花)”. On the top of the stadium (体育馆), there are eight “petals” (花瓣). They can open and close freely. This way, we don’t need to worry about different kinds of weather. What if the players get hurt and need first aid (急救)? Drones (无人机) can be used to send things over. They can fly as far as 20 kilometers and travel 16 meters in one second. Every dish at the Asian Games should be safe and healthy. In the kitchen of the players’ village in Hangzhou, there is a special machine that can tell people’s faces. If a “stranger” goes into the kitchen, an alarm will go off to let people know. If you want to walk around at the stadiums without going there, you can try the Hangzhou Asian Games’ metaverse (元宇宙) with an app on Alipay (支付宝). Inside, it’s like an online cartoon world. You can enjoy the beauty of the stadiums! And you don’t need to worry about getting lost. AR (增强现实) is here to help. The mini-program is called the Hangzhou Asian Games AR service.

That is to say, “The best of friends must Part (分离)” This, however, might not always be true. For the six friends in Friends, the “good things”—the friendships (友谊) between them don’t really end. Friends is one of the most popular sitcoms in America. It tells the story of six young people. They come to New York City to find love, success and fun. Each of them is different, but they become friends. Friends was on from 1994 to 2004. After all these years, many people wanted to see the six young people meet on the screen again. And this wish came true in the end. A new special Friends: The Reunion (重聚) came out on May 27, 2021. It has been one of the most anticipated (期待的) TV dramas in 2023. For sure, watching Friends can help you learn English. But you can learn more from it. One thing is how to build true friendships. As Rachel said “Back in the 1990s, there were no smart phones. It was just friends sitting around and talking with each other.” If you want to have lifelong (终身的) friends, don’t just talk with them online. Be sure to always be there—for your friends. 11．What does “All good things must come to an end.” mean in Chinese? A．天下没有不散的筵席 B．否极泰来 C．好事多磨 D．有始有终 12．What is Friends? A．A talk show. B．A sitcom.

C．If you want to have lifelong friends, you only need to talk with them online. D．To build true friendships, you should be sure to always be there—for your friends. 15．What can we learn from Friends? A．How to find success. B．How to talk with friends. C．How to build true friendships. D．How to have fun. What do you think of the life without (没有) the computer? Well, do you know that without two of Bill Gates’ high school teachers, we could live a life like that today. Gates’ math teacher, Fred Wright, asked him to study a little bit harder. And his drama teacher, Anne Stephens helped him become the star of the school play. Gates thanked the two — without them, there would be no Microsoft. Teachers are important. They can make or break a class. A great teacher can make a boring subject interesting while (然而) an exciting subject can be killed by a teacher who isn’t good at teaching. Of all the subjects, math is probably the most difficult. However, a math teacher Matthew Weathers made himself famous on the Internet because he brought excitement into his class successfully. Matthew likes to play pranks on his students. He also likes to make prank videos when he is not busy. Then he puts them on the Internet. Each one is interesting and creative. His most popular video was made on April Fool’s Day. In the video, he pretended (假装) to clean up a stain (污点) on the screen. In fact, to make students laugh, he was interacting (互动) with a video that he recorded earlier. It made him popular in his school.

Over the centuries, Chinese people have developed colorful traditions, including flying kites, eating cold food and going on spring outings (春游). The most important tradition of the festival is sweeping tombs (扫墓). The Qingming Festival usually falls on April 4 or 5. It falls on April 4 this year. On April 3, a middle school in Guyuan, Ningxia held a special activity for students—a 54-kilometer hike (徒步) to Renshanhe Martyr Cemetery (任山河烈士陵园). At 4: 30 in the morning, more than 2,000 teachers and students set off from the starting point. They hiked for 27 kilometers until they reached Renshanhe Martyr Cemetery. When they arrived there, they swept tombs and offered flowers to pay respects to the revolutionary martyrs (革命烈士). Then they returned 27 kilometers to where they started at 7:30 p. m. Starting in 1995, the 54-kilometer hike is a traditional ideological and political class (思政课) of the school. “We hope students can not only learn about the revolutionary martyrs from books, but also experience and touch history on the spot (实地),” the school’s headmaster said. “Although it has been a difficult trip, I would like to say that what I did is very meaningful.” said Zhao Mingyu, a student from Grade 8. “I deeply realized that we can’t live a happy life today without the revolutionary martyrs.” 21．Which of the following is the most important tradition of the Qingming Festival?

When you are ill, you must be unhappy because your body may become hot, and there are pains (痛) all over your body. You don’t want to work or study but only stay in bed, feeling terrible. What makes us sick? Germs (病菌) often do it. Germs are in every place. They are very small  and you can’t see them with your eyes, but you can see them with a microscope (显微镜).  Germs are always found in dirty water. When we watch the water under a microscope, we can see them in it. So our parents ask us not to drink dirty water. We can also find germs in the air and dust. If you cut your hand, and if some of the dust from the floor goes into the cut (伤), some of the germs will go into your finger. Your finger would become big and red, and you would have a pain in it. Sometimes germs go into all parts of your body, and you will have a high temperature. 26．What makes us ill ? A．Water. B．Germs C．Pains D．Work 27．Where are germs ? A．They are in dirty water.

Fire fighting is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save people’s lives. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone else in the family, such as stairways (楼梯) and emergency exits (紧急出口/电梯) from the lower floors of buildings. Escaping (逃) through windows is possible. Learn the best way to get out from a window with the least chance of serious injury (伤害). The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. It’s about 1.8 meters. So it is safer to jump a short way down than to stay in a burning building. Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may go into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have gone into the room. On the second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those which open onto a roof (顶部) might end in injury. Grass on the ground can help you to have a safe landing. 36．Which of the following should NOT be used when trying to escape from a fire? A．Windows. B．Elevators. C．Fire exits.

A．drop directly (直接) onto the ground B．first drop onto a roof then onto the cement C．drop from a roof window then onto the grass D．drop onto the cement rather than grass Have you ever shouted at your computer because it wasn’t working? Of course, your computer can’t “shout” back. But AI researchers have been working on computers that can argue and perhaps even win debates (辩论) with humans. IBM scientists recently published a paper in Nature about their new AI system—Project Debater. It can debate with people in front of a live audience. After listening to arguments from its opponent (对手), the system can search around 400 million online articles in less than five minutes. And then it looks for ideas that can support its own argument. Testing on the system began in 2019. When it debated with Harish Natarajan, a professional debater who holds the world record for the most debate competition victories. The topic was about subsidizing preschool (资助幼儿园)—and Project Debater argued to support this idea. Although Project Debater lost the debate in the end, the audience said it performed very well. Interestingly, 58 percent of the audience said that Project Debater increased their knowledge about the topic—only 20 percent said the same about Natarajan. According to Scientific American, results show that the system is able to form logical statements (有逻辑的陈述). However, ★ . Their goal is to help humans make better decisions, according to Ranit Aharanoy, manager of the Project Debater team. “It can debate both sides, so it can very quickly help you understand both sides of the problem, so you can have a wider view of the problem and make a more thoughtful decision.” Aharanoy said. Let’s wait and see how the Project Debater will develop in the near future. 41．According to paragraph 2, which one below is not the way of Project Debater working? A．It writes ideas that can support its own argument. B．It listens to its opponent’s arguments. C．It searches online articles.

A．forming logical statements is not easy B．some people didn’t believe Project Debater C．they can develop better system D．winning a debate is never the researchers’ goal 44．The underlined word “it” refers to ________. A．Project Debater team B．the logical statement C．the new AI system D．the wider view 45．What is the author’s attitude to the Project Debater? A．Doubtful B．Positive C．We don’t know D．Disappointed It’s important to help children understand how to manage (管理) money. When are children old enough to learn about money? You might be surprised by the answer. “Research (研究) shows that children develop (发展) their habits by age seven, ” says Jessica Pelletier, a professor at the research center. “So, we need to start teaching them about healthy money decisions (决定) while they are getting to know about money.” In fact, the research center starts its plan at age six, when most kids are in their first year of primary school. Knowledge about money can’t be learned in a day. It can take a lifetime. “For this reason, we hope that parents can starț talking about money as early as possible.” says Pelletier. By year one, for example, kids should be learning sharing (分享). By year three of primary school, kids should start learning the responsibility (责任) of having pocket money, and by year four, kids should start practising saving money. Usually, children watch how the adults in their lives make money decisions first. Then, parents can begin the conversation with their children about money. The important thing is, if the adults in children’s lives can know more about managing money, they can help their kids understand better. And the best way to keep kids interested in learning about money is through games and fun activities. Here Pelletier shares her experience on teaching these knowledge to kids through play. She takes them on adventures (冒险) such as getting a gift card for their birthday, researching what they want to be when they grow up, and coming along with their big sister as she shops for clothes to watch how and why she makes these decisions. “Playing games about money management is a fun way to learn. Kids can learn while having fun,” she says. 46．When are children old enough to learn about money? A．Only after they are seven. B．When they know how to use money. C．Can be earlier than seven. D．When they go to school. 47．According to the second paragraph, children can ________. A．be good at managing money very quickly B．learn to use money as early as possible C．learn sharing at a very early age D．take the responsibility of giving pocket money 48．What did Pelletier do to teach children? A．Take them to go on different vacations. B．Make gift cards for herself. C．Tell them why she shops for clothes. D．Have interesting games and activities. 49．The writer’s writing purpose is to ________. A．ask for teachers’ help B．advertise a research center C．show kids problems of managing money D．help children learn knowledge about money 50．What is the best title of this passage? A．A Fun Way for Learning B．A Terrible Problem of Children C．Impossible for Children to Manage Money D．When Children Learn about Money In 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping proposed (提议) the initiatives (倡议) of jointly building a Silk Road Economic Belt and a 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, which became known as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI, “一带一路”倡议). Since then the BRI has gone through a long journey of growth. This year marks its 10th anniversary (周年纪念) of the BRI. As the BRI continues to bring the world together, young people from the Belt and Road countries see how it continues to develop and have a deeper understanding of it. Lashyn Zeiin, a Kazakh (哈萨克的) student at Nazarbayev University, said that in 2013 she visited China. “To me, it was an amazing new world with beautiful landscapes and dynamic (多元的) cultures,” she said. She then decided to continue learning Chinese. Thandi Mtsetwene, 22, from South Africa, said that now South African people are arguing how the country’s future will benefit from economic interdependence (经济上的相互依赖) brought by the BRI. “I am in support of a win-win relationship brought by the BRI, which also widens and deepens the connections all over the world,” she added. In fact, the BRI has brought about great changes to the Belt and Road countries. Temelidi Yulia from Russia said that the BRI has encouraged cultural exchanges between her country and the rest of the world. For example, “China and Russia both invite guests from each other to perform (展示) their own culture. In this way, people in these two countries can understand each other’s culture,” said Yulia. Kairat Bekmurzayev from Kazakhstan grew up in a small town that is 35 km away from the border (边境) with China. When he was little, Bekmurzayev always waited for his father who worked in China to bring candies and new toys. But now, he can enjoy the childhood joy all the time. He said that thanks to the BRI, an international center for cross-border cooperation (合作) was set up. “The center helped many people to improve their way of life. They made new houses, schools and also built roads,” said Bekmurzayev. 51．What made Lashyn Zeiin continue learning Chinese? A．The BRI’s influence on her home country.

C．The article primarily reveals how the BRI promotes cultural exchanges and improves the quality of life. D．The article mainly describes the development of multiculturalism. Do you ever see a bird fly into a building? Now, some students in Shenzhen are working to help the birds and learn more about this problem. In March, they made a team to study bird collisions (鸟撞). “Every morning, we walk around buildings with big glass before 9 a. m. That is the high time for bird activity,” Feng Yongyin, 14, said. If they see a bird hit a building, they will take photos of the bird and the place around it. Then, they put the photos onto an app called Biotracks. Scientists can use them to do more study. The students’ careful bird-watching also make the school think about moving the basketball court. That’s because it is a place with many plants and birds. “Once we found a bird’s nest on the floor and put it back. We also set up a camera (摄像头),” says 14-year-old Lan Zijia. Using the camera, they see that many students go into the place to get their balls. “We told the school about this, and the school placed a line to protect the plants and birds. We might have to do more things in the future.” Lan said. Since March, the team has done 416 bird-watching studies, found five bird collisions and saved one bird. 56．Paragraph 2 mainly talks about ________.

D．Saving Neighborhood. The consumption (消费) idea and lifestyle of the young people are quietly changing. There is a new idea called Reverse (反向的) Consumption. It means that people no longer blindly buy very expensive things, but pay more attention to the cost performance (性价比). As a result, they are more willing to buy what they really need and compare the prices before buying them. Reverse consumption actually encourages people not to waste. Compared with traditional consumption habits, it refuses to keep buying new goods, and pays more attention to the quality (品质) of them. This idea has already become popular among the young. ★ News such as “young people are not crazy about changing their mobile phones anymore”, “challenging 5-day within 27 yuan” and others have been on the front pages of newspapers. Why are young people changing their ideas and spending less on buying? One of the reasons is that people have a different understanding of quality life. They come to realize that money and goods do not bring true happiness. They start to care more about personal growth, spirit and the building of social relationships. As a result, they begin to focus more on their inner needs, which helps to achieve a more meaningful life. Young people are also caring more about the environment. Blind consumption may cause not only waste but also environmental pollution. So, they begin to play a part in protecting the environment through this new way of consumption. Instead of buying new things from traditional stores, many young people are turning to second-hand markets to find goods that can be reused or recycled. Reverse consumption influences (影响) the market and sellers in turn. The companies have to improve the quality of their goods and offer better services as well. One thing is for sure-goods with higher quality and lower prices win. 61．Which of the following is Reverse Consumption? A．Buying shoes more than you need. B．Buying bags you really need. C．Changing smart phones often. D．Choosing cheap bags only. 62．What leads to Reverse Consumption? A．Being tired of shopping. B．Being afraid to try new things. C．Believing in expensive things.

C．So they are on the way of blind consumption. D．Then they stop to live a hard life. 64．To win young people’s hearts, a company should ________. A．take environmental problems less seriously B．sell environment friendly goods C．offer beautiful goods in poor quality D．put more ads on TV 65．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards Reverse Consumption? A．He can’t understand it. B．He says yes to it. C．He is unsure about it. D．He is against it. Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations’ (一代) online habits are very different. In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55—64 and 2.9 million over-65s. Sheila, aged 59, says, “I join to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing. I think I’m lucky I get to see so much more of their lives. “ ★ Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site (only 2.2 million users are under 17) but they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. “It’s my alarm clock so I have to, “ she says. “I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon as I wake up.” Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn’t heard from (得到……的消息) in forty years. “We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,” she says. “It’s changed my social life completely.” Teenagers spend too much time on their smartphones and social media partly because of their parents. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or laptop all the time. “I was always connected and I felt like I was always working,” he says. “How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?” So, in the evenings and at weekends, he uses an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages instead of smartphones. “That helps me set a better example to my kids and spend more quality time with them.” 66．What is the purpose of paragraph 2? A．To advertise for Facebook. B．To say why she starts to use social media. C．To express her love to her smartphone.

A．how social media changes old people’s lives B．why teenagers spend so much time on social media C．different online habits of different generations D．good examples of wise social media users A new movie named YOLO is becoming a hot topic these days. The main character used to be about one hundred and ten kilos. One day, she decided to try boxing. Within a year, she lost fifty kilos by exercising. She finally became someone she wanted to be. Without doubt, exercise brings people a lot. Exercise helps build muscles (肌肉). Muscle practice like doing push-ups (俯卧撑) is becoming popular in middle schools. It’s a good way to develop muscles and help students grow taller and stronger. For adults, it can make muscles bigger, too. Exercise helps keep the balance of energy in your body. Food gives your body energy in the form of calories (卡路里). Your body needs a certain number of calories every day just to keep you doing the basic things. But if the amount of energy is more than what you need, the result will be unexpected. For example, if you eat more and move less for the whole winter vacation, you will get more calories than your body needs. Calories will turn into fat. Then exercise can help you lose the fat you don’t need. Exercise makes you feel delighted. It feels good to have a strong body that can allow you to do all the activities you enjoy—running, jumping, and playing with your friends. Exercise may also make you feel energetic. That’s why exercise is becoming more and more popular. 71．What was the main character’s weight after exercising for a year in the movie YOLO? A．About 110 kilos. B．About 70 kilos. C．About 60 kilos. D．About 50 kilos. 72．Why is muscle practice becoming popular in middle schools? A．Because it helps students grow up better. B．Because it helps students lose weight quickly.

C．By listing numbers. D．By asking questions. 74．What does the underlined word “delighted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Weak. B．Wonderful. C．Nervous. D．Terrible. 75．Which can be the best title for the passage? A．A Great Movie Named YOLO B．Ways to Build Muscles C．Exercise—a Good Way to Lose Weight D．Advantages of Exercise Every year almost all of the 330 million tennis balls made worldwide are thrown away. Lots of them end up in landfill, where they can take up to 400 years to decompose (分解). The International Tennis Federation (ITF) is trying to find out if tennis balls can be produced and used in a way that is kinder to the planet. Tennis balls are made from an air- filled rubber core (橡胶芯). They are coated in glue and covered in felt (毛毡) which can’t be recycled. Although rubber can be recycled, the glue that holds the felt covering onto it is so strong that the two can’t be easily separated. The best quality tennis balls are used by the world’s top players. They are usually made from new materials— latex (胶乳). This is a milky sticky material collected from cuts made in rubber trees and mixed with chemicals. Players don’t use tennis balls for very long before they are replaced. In big tennis games, the balls are hit so hard that they are changed after the first seven games, and then every nine games after that. This is to make sure the balls stay smooth and energetic. The ITF has put together a team of scientists to try to find a way to design a fully recyclable tennis ball. They are also testing to see if tennis balls could be used for longer before being replaced. Not all used tennis balls go to waste. The balls used at the Wimbledon championships are sold to the public. Some are given to wildlife charities, which use them as homes for harvest mice. Some are used as dog toys or to make a flooring material for tennis clubs and horse- riding centers. 76．How did the writer lead into his writing? A．By listing facts. B．Through imaging. C．By showing examples. D．Through giving advice. 77．Which of the following material in a tennis ball can be used again? A．Glue. B．Felt. C．Rubber. D．Latex. 78．What does Paragraph 3 mainly want to tell us? A．The tennis balls are used for many times. B．It is a waste if we replaced the tennis balls so often. C．The tennis ball would be changed after the first seven games. D．Players replace the balls to keep them stay in the best condition. 79．What does the ITF do to make the used tennis ball be friendlier to the planet? A．They try to find new materials that could be recycled. B．They make a team of scientists to find ways. C．They test to use the tennis balls more times. D．They sell the balls to wildlife charities or horse- riding centers. 80．Where is the passage probably taken from? A．A Sports Guide. B．Movie Review. C．A Book Review. D．Green Environment. Recently, the first application (应用) of concrete 3D printing technology in building construction (建筑) in Hubei province, the new countryside housing project in Daye, was officially delivered. Built by the First Company of China Construction Third Engineering Bureau (中建三局一公司) , the Daye countryside housing project is a provincial﹣level pilot project in Huangshi city, covering an area of 20 hectares. The project’s community design combines countryside houses, countryside parks, high﹣standard farmland and landscaping to create a picturesque neighborhood. The project manager, Yuan Hu, explained that 90 percent of each structure is prefabricated, allowing the main structure to be completed in 4 to 5 days. The house walls, inside and outside decorations are made from high﹣performance green and environmentally friendly materials, which provide enough thermal and sound insulation, waterproofing, and a comfortable living environment year﹣round. Thanks to the three﹣step design, loading and 3D printing process, each house can be built in just a week. The advanced design and construction technology stand for an upgrade to countryside housing development and the construction industry in general. Energy﹣saving is included throughout the project. Rooftop panels connect to a heat collection water tank which is placed in the equipment interlayer below the split roof, reducing the need for additional pressure pump sets. The project team is currently developing a countryside park and areas for fishing, woodcutting, farming, reading, landscaping and fruit tree planting. Other tasks include land leveling, farmland slope protection, soil fertility protection and building irrigation (灌溉) and drainage ditches (排水沟) and roads. 81．Where does the first application of 3D printing technology in construction happen?

Coco, Latte and Leo are hanging out at a cafe in Toronto. But they’re not humans—they’re cats. Meow Cat Cafe is a cafe where cat lovers can take pleasure in two of their favorite things: drinking coffee and playing with cats. “Petting the cats is very healing (治愈). It calms people,” said Erica Yun, the owner of the cafe. While Yun and her daughter, Helen, serve up coffee, customers play with the cats. Unlike other cafe, Meow Cat Cafe has a few rules.

I have learned that little kids are dogs, while teenagers are cats. It’s easy to be a dog owner. You feed it and train it, and it will put its head on your knee gently. Whenever you call it, it will run to you with great warmth. Then around age 13, your lovely little puppy turns into a big old cat. When you ask it to come inside, it looks surprised, wondering why you give such an order. It may turn its nose up at the meal you’re offering. When you reach out to touch its head, it will stay away from you, as if trying to hide its own secrets. The kid now is not a dog any more. It thinks something in a totally different way. It seems so strange. Maybe it even doesn’t want to go out with its family members. You may think that you’ve done something wrong, because you are the one who raises (抚养) it and stays with it all the time. Filled with guilt (内疚) and fear, you make an effort (努力) to make your pet under your control (控制), but the result always turns out (结果是) to be disappointing. Instead of being like a dog owner, you should learn to act like a cat owner. Put a dish of food near the door, and let it come to you. But remember that a cat also needs your heal (治愈) and your love. You need to tell it there is a door which is always open for it. One day, your grown-up child will walk into the kitchen, give you a big kiss and say, “Let me get those dishes for you.” 91．From Paragraph 2, we can know that ________. A．kids always like to stay with dogs B．it’s easy to teach and train a child if he is smart C．little kids will show their kindness to us if we care for them D．dogs don’t know who takes good care of them 92．The sentence “It may turn its nose up at the meal you’re offering.” tells us that the cat ________.

I have learned that little kids are like dogs, while teenagers are cats. It’s easy to be a dog owner. You feed it and train it, and it will put its head on your knee gently. Whenever you call it, it will run to you with great warmth. Then around age 13, your lovely little puppy turns into a big old cat. When you ask it to come inside, it looks surprised, wondering why you give such an order. It may turn its nose up at the meal you’ re serving. When you reach out to touch its head, it will stay away from you, as if trying to hide its own secrets. ________. It thinks something in a totally different way. It seems so strange. Maybe it even doesn’t want to go out with its family members. You may think that you have done something wrong, because you are the one who raises it and stays with it all the time. Flooded with guilt (内疚) and fear, you double your efforts (努力) to make your pet under your control, but the result always turns out to be disappointing. Instead of continuing to act like a dog owner, you should learn to behave like a cat owner. Put a dish of food near the door, and let it come to you. But remember that a cat also needs your help and your love. You need to tell it there is a door which is always open for it. One day, your grown-up child will walk into the kitchen, give you a big kiss and say, “Let me get those dishes for you.” 96．What’s the writer’s purpose of the first sentence?
