Rainbows are created by light shining through water or clear objects. In nature, rainbows usually appear where rain and sunlight meet. Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light. Science, though, has unlocked their mysteries.
Where and When Rainbows Appear
Notice the weather the next time you see a rainbow. There will be rain or mist (薄雾) in front of you, and the Sun will be shining from behind you. The rainbow will appear in the rain or mist. Water in the air and direct light are the two things needed to see a rainbow in nature. A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy.
The best time to see a rainbow is usually in the morning or late afternoon. That’s when the Sun is in the best place to create one. If you’re lucky, you might see a double or even a triple rainbow.
You can sometimes see rainbows in the mist of a waterfall, too. A fountain (喷泉) can create a small rainbow, and a sprinkler (洒水器) on a sunny day may put on a colorful show. Rainbows can even form under a bright moon. These special rainbows are called moonbows.
To a viewer, a rainbow looks like a half circle. However, a rainbow actually forms a full circle. From the ground, most times we can only see a rainbow’s top half. Sometimes though, lucky airline pilots may see a rainbow’s complete circle from the sky.
How Rainbows Form
René Descartes was a French scientist. He was born over four hundred years ago. He was attracted by rainbows and wanted to learn more about them. He used sunlight and a big ball filled with water to do experiments. Descartes discovered that to see a rainbow, the viewer must be looking at the light from the right angle(角度). To understand rainbows, it helps to understand how light travels. Light moves at different speeds through different mediums (介质). Think of running on land. Then imagine running in knee-deep water. You move slower through water. In the same way, light moves faster through air than through water. This happens because water is thicker than air. When light enters water, it slows and changes its original path (路线). This process makes objects, such as a pencil sitting in a glass of water seem to bend(弯曲).
We can see rainbows in nature when direct light meets drops of rain. Sunlight refracts (折射) as it enters each drop. The light then reflects, or bounces, off the inside of each drop, like light off a mirror. The light refracts again as it exits the drop. Light refracts and reflects in millions of water droplets in the sky at the same time. This process makes all the colors of a rainbow.
22. Which sentence below can best explain the underlined sentence “Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light” in Paragraph 1?
A. Rainbows are tricks made by many scientists.
B. Someone lied to us about the truth of rainbows.
C. Rainbows are made by some unknown magic tricks
D. The light plays tricks on people’s eyes and makes rainbows.
23. In which of the following situations, a rainbow CAN’T form?
A. Over a sprinkler on a very cloudy day. B. On a misty morning.
C. Over a fountain under a bright moon. D. In the mist of a waterfall.
24. Which could be the best picture for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6?
A. B.
C. D.
25. Which statement below is TRUE according to the article?
A. A rainbow can be a complete circle as well as a half circle.
B. You need to stand at a right angle to see a rainbow.
C. Light can actually make a pencil bend in water.
D. Light moves faster in thicker mediums like water.

Judy was about to turn 7 years old when her mom suggested a new way to celebrate her birthday. “What would you think about donating your gifts to a children’s hospital?” her mom said.
At first, Judy wasn’t sure. Then she gave it some thought. “It can be a good idea.” Judy told TIME for Kids. “I already had everything I needed, and these kids that were going through things at the hospital— they needed it more than I did.”
Now a freshman in high school, Judy continues to bring joy to kids and teens being treated for serious illnesses. In December 2023, it was her 9th year to donate her birthday gifts to the children’s hospital in San Antonio, Fexas.
“Just to see their little faces when she hands them the gifts, that’s always been our favorite part,” says Judy’s mom, Sondra Perez. “Seeing the kids’ reactions just touches our heart.”
Kids, 10 and older are more often hospitalized for mental health problems. Whatever the patient’s age, a hospital stay can be stressful. Judy’s effort is a bright light during a difficult time.
Along with an invitation to Judy’s party, her friends get a list of gift ideas for kids at the hospital. For the littlest patients, gifts might include building blocks or toy trains. “And for the teenagers, my age or older,” Judy says, “it might be nail polish or books.”
After the first round of donations, Judy shares the list with family, coaches, and teammates. The number of donations “grows every year,” she says, but she doesn’t keep an exact count. Instead, she judges by sight. “We measure how much of the carpet it covers in our living room,” Judy says. “Last year, it covered the whole carpet (地毯).”
Then it’s time to share the gifts with kids at the hospital. “Seeing other people’s happiness—— that’s all that matters to me,” Judy says.
Natalie Gutierrez works in the public relations office at the children’s hospital. She has seen firsthand the influence of Judy’s gift-giving. “She puts smiles on the faces of these little patients in our hospital and on our nurses and doctors.” Gutierrez says. “They are all amazed at how generous she was at such a young age.”
Judy’s efforts to help kids in the hospital have encouraged others to follow in her footsteps. Friends have collected and donated gifts for their birthdays too. And Judy says her 11-year-old twin sister helps animals by donating to the Humane Society.
“Giving to others, it’s just a good feeling to have at the end of the day,” Judy says. “I want to keep doing this as long as I can.”
26. How many times has she donated her gifts to the children’s hospital before 2024?
A. 7. B. 8. C. 9. D. 10.
27. Why does the author use “a bright light” to describe Judy’s effort in Paragraph 5?
A. Because she manages to cure these kids’ illness by herself.
B. Because she donates money to them to help them get better treatment.
C. Because she helps the doctors and nurses a lot with their work.
D. Because she brings these kids happiness during their difficult time.
28. What does the underlined “They” include in Paragraph 9?
①Natalie Gutierrez ②doctors ③Judy’s twin sister ④little patients ⑤nurses
A. ①②④ B. ③④⑤ C. ②④⑤ D. ①③⑤
29. What can we know from this passage?
A. Judy was unhappy when her mom suggested her to donate her gifts.
B. Judy donates the same gifts to kids in the hospital every year.
C. Judy’s twin sister also helps children in hospital because of Judy.
D. More and more people choose to donate gifts like Judy.
30. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. Celebrate Often, Think Often B. Need Much, See Much
C. Smile Much, Work Much D. Do good, Feel Good

Chinese educator Zhang Guimei, born in 1957, spent all her life helping girls’ education in China. After graduating from Lijiang Teachers College in 1990, Zhang became a middle-school teacher. Five years later, she went to teach in the mountainous Huaping county, Yunnan, a place that was totally s____46____ to her.
In Huaping, she found that because of little money and old ideas, many parents didn’t support their d____47____ education. Many girls dropped out of school and got m____48____ at a young age.
“An educated mother would never let her children drop out of school,” Zhang said. “As long as I have one more breath, I will keep teaching in the classroom, with all my efforts, giving out e____49____ I have.”
With this belief, Zhang decided to set up a f____50____ high school for girls in 2002, an idea many called crazy. With help from the local government, as well as personal donations, Zhang finally founded Huaping High School for Girls in 2008.

QUESTION
Dear Dale,
I’ve been a crazy soccer fan since I was 9. I love soccer games, but my parents are angry with me about my hobbies, although they like watching soccer games too. Should I give up my hobbies?
Yours,
Mike Wang
ANSWER
Dear Mike,
When we grow up, our parents set examples for us to follow if we want to be good people. However, they’re still allowed to do things that we’re not, even if we don’t agree.
It may seem like that’s unfair (不公平), but as we all know, being a teenager usually isn’t fair. At the moment, you’re a high school student who is already 15, so it’s understandable for your parents to be mad as you pay more attention to your hobbies than school work. Not all of us have time to do whatever we like, whenever we like— even as adults.
Your parents just want you to be the best student you can. However, maybe you could talk and come to an agreement. For example, perhaps you could watch a soccer game with your parents once a week, after all your homework is done. That way, you could enjoy your hobby and be a good student at the same time.
Life is all about compromise (妥协), as you’ll soon learn.
While it’s great to have hobbies and interests, we still have to work hard and be responsible (有责任) before we can enjoy them. Once you’re an adult and get a job, you’ll find out that hobbies are only a small part of life-most of it is about working hard.
At the same time, however, you’ll soon see how watching your favorite team is even more fun after you’ve worked extra hard for it.
Yours,
Dale

句意:说到学校,你们认为在年中转学是个好主意吗?

Rainbows are created by light shining through water or clear objects. In nature, rainbows usually appear where rain and sunlight meet. Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light. Science, though, has unlocked their mysteries.
Where and When Rainbows Appear
Notice the weather the next time you see a rainbow. There will be rain or mist (薄雾) in front of you, and the Sun will be shining from behind you. The rainbow will appear in the rain or mist. Water in the air and direct light are the two things needed to see a rainbow in nature. A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy.
The best time to see a rainbow is usually in the morning or late afternoon. That’s when the Sun is in the best place to create one. If you’re lucky, you might see a double or even a triple rainbow.
You can sometimes see rainbows in the mist of a waterfall, too. A fountain (喷泉) can create a small rainbow, and a sprinkler (洒水器) on a sunny day may put on a colorful show. Rainbows can even form under a bright moon. These special rainbows are called moonbows.
To a viewer, a rainbow looks like a half circle. However, a rainbow actually forms a full circle. From the ground, most times we can only see a rainbow’s top half. Sometimes though, lucky airline pilots may see a rainbow’s complete circle from the sky.
How Rainbows Form
René Descartes was a French scientist. He was born over four hundred years ago. He was attracted by rainbows and wanted to learn more about them. He used sunlight and a big ball filled with water to do experiments. Descartes discovered that to see a rainbow, the viewer must be looking at the light from the right angle(角度). To understand rainbows, it helps to understand how light travels. Light moves at different speeds through different mediums (介质). Think of running on land. Then imagine running in knee-deep water. You move slower through water. In the same way, light moves faster through air than through water. This happens because water is thicker than air. When light enters water, it slows and changes its original path (路线). This process makes objects, such as a pencil sitting in a glass of water seem to bend(弯曲).
We can see rainbows in nature when direct light meets drops of rain. Sunlight refracts (折射) as it enters each drop. The light then reflects, or bounces, off the inside of each drop, like light off a mirror. The light refracts again as it exits the drop. Light refracts and reflects in millions of water droplets in the sky at the same time. This process makes all the colors of a rainbow.
22. Which sentence below can best explain the underlined sentence “Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light” in Paragraph 1?
A. Rainbows are tricks made by many scientists.
B. Someone lied to us about the truth of rainbows.
C. Rainbows are made by some unknown magic tricks
D. The light plays tricks on people’s eyes and makes rainbows.
23. In which of the following situations, a rainbow CAN’T form?
A. Over a sprinkler on a very cloudy day. B. On a misty morning.
C. Over a fountain under a bright moon. D. In the mist of a waterfall.
24. Which could be the best picture for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6?
A. B.
C. D.
25. Which statement below is TRUE according to the article?
A. A rainbow can be a complete circle as well as a half circle.
B. You need to stand at a right angle to see a rainbow.
C. Light can actually make a pencil bend in water.
D. Light moves faster in thicker mediums like water.
【答案】22. D 23. A 24. D 25. B

【导语】本文主要解释了彩虹是如何形成的,以及什么条件下可以看到彩虹。
【22题详解】

【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据“A fountain ( 喷泉) can create a small rainbow, and a sprinkler (洒水器) on a sunny day may put on a colorful show.”及“A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy.”可知,洒水器在晴朗的天气时可以形成彩虹,在多云的天气时不能形成彩虹。故选A。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据“When light enters water, it slows and changes its original path. This process makes objects, such as a pencil sitting in a glass of water seem to bend.”可知,当光进入水中时,它的速度会减慢,并且会改变其原本的传播路径。这一过程使得诸如放在水杯里的铅笔之类的物体看起来好像发生了弯曲。选项D,此图是关于光在空气和水中折射的原理,光从空气进入水中,发生折射。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Descartes discovered that to see a rainbow, the viewer must be looking at the light from the right angle”可知,观看者要在正确的角度看彩虹。选项A“您需要站在正确的角度才能看到彩虹。”表述符合。故选B。

Judy was about to turn 7 years old when her mom suggested a new way to celebrate her birthday. “What would you think about donating your gifts to a children’s hospital?” her mom said.
At first, Judy wasn’t sure. Then she gave it some thought. “It can be a good idea.” Judy told TIME for Kids. “I already had everything I needed, and these kids that were going through things at the hospital— they needed it more than I did.”
Now a freshman in high school, Judy continues to bring joy to kids and teens being treated for serious illnesses. In December 2023, it was her 9th year to donate her birthday gifts to the children’s hospital in San Antonio, Fexas.
“Just to see their little faces when she hands them the gifts, that’s always been our favorite part,” says Judy’s mom, Sondra Perez. “Seeing the kids’ reactions just touches our heart.”
Kids, 10 and older are more often hospitalized for mental health problems. Whatever the patient’s age, a hospital stay can be stressful. Judy’s effort is a bright light during a difficult time.
Along with an invitation to Judy’s party, her friends get a list of gift ideas for kids at the hospital. For the littlest patients, gifts might include building blocks or toy trains. “And for the teenagers, my age or older,” Judy says, “it might be nail polish or books.”
After the first round of donations, Judy shares the list with family, coaches, and teammates. The number of donations “grows every year,” she says, but she doesn’t keep an exact count. Instead, she judges by sight. “We measure how much of the carpet it covers in our living room,” Judy says. “Last year, it covered the whole carpet (地毯).”
Then it’s time to share the gifts with kids at the hospital. “Seeing other people’s happiness—— that’s all that matters to me,” Judy says.
Natalie Gutierrez works in the public relations office at the children’s hospital. She has seen firsthand the influence of Judy’s gift-giving. “She puts smiles on the faces of these little patients in our hospital and on our nurses and doctors.” Gutierrez says. “They are all amazed at how generous she was at such a young age.”
Judy’s efforts to help kids in the hospital have encouraged others to follow in her footsteps. Friends have collected and donated gifts for their birthdays too. And Judy says her 11-year-old twin sister helps animals by donating to the Humane Society.
“Giving to others, it’s just a good feeling to have at the end of the day,” Judy says. “I want to keep doing this as long as I can.”
26. How many times has she donated her gifts to the children’s hospital before 2024?
A. 7. B. 8. C. 9. D. 10.
27. Why does the author use “a bright light” to describe Judy’s effort in Paragraph 5?
A. Because she manages to cure these kids’ illness by herself.
B. Because she donates money to them to help them get better treatment.
C. Because she helps the doctors and nurses a lot with their work.
D. Because she brings these kids happiness during their difficult time.
28. What does the underlined “They” include in Paragraph 9?
①Natalie Gutierrez ②doctors ③Judy’s twin sister ④little patients ⑤nurses
A. ①②④ B. ③④⑤ C. ②④⑤ D. ①③⑤
29. What can we know from this passage?
A. Judy was unhappy when her mom suggested her to donate her gifts.
B. Judy donates the same gifts to kids in the hospital every year.
C. Judy’s twin sister also helps children in hospital because of Judy.
D. More and more people choose to donate gifts like Judy.
30. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. Celebrate Often, Think Often B. Need Much, See Much
C. Smile Much, Work Much D. Do good, Feel Good
【答案】26. C 27. D 28. C 29. D 30. D

词义猜测题。根据“Natalie Gutierrez works in the public relations office at the children’s hospital.

【详解】根据汉语可知,句子时态为一般现在时。I“我”;often“经常”;doubt“怀疑”;whether“是否”;worth“值得”;spend“花费”;so much time“这么多时间”;homework“作业”。I作主语,doubt作谓语,whether引导宾语从句,it is worth doing sth.“做某事是值得的”,固定句型,spend some time on sth.“花费多长时间在某事上”。故填I often doubt whether it is worth spending so much time on homework.
44. 我们一到学校就会交作业。
________________________________
【答案】We will hand in our homework as soon as we get to school.
【解析】

45. 熬夜对健康不好。
________________________________
【答案】Staying up late is bad for health.
【解析】
【详解】“熬夜”译为stay up;“晚”译为late;“对……不利”译为be bad for;“健康”译为health。动词短语作主语,要用动名词形式。动名词作主语时,be动词用第三人称单数形式,此句为一般现在时,用is。故答案为Staying up late is bad for health.

【导语】本文主要讲述了张桂梅助力大山里的女孩圆上大学之梦的故事。
【46题详解】
句意:五年后,她到云南省华坪县的大山里教书,这个地方对她来说是完全陌生的。根据上文“After graduating from Lijiang Teachers College in 1990, Zhang became a middle-school teacher.”可知,她毕业于丽江师范学院,然后当了一名中学老师,可知华坪县对她来说是陌生的,strange“陌生的”,在句中作表语。故填(s)trange。
【47题详解】
句意:在华坪县,她发现,许多家庭因为没钱和旧观念的影响,不能支持他们女儿的教育。根据上文“Chinese educator Zhang Guimei, born in 1957, spent all her life helping girls’ education in China.”可知,张桂梅支持女子的教育,因此此处应用daughter表示“女儿”,根据“their”和“education”可知此处应用其复数形式的名词所有格修饰education。故填daughters’。

【51题详解】
句意:为了阻止任何一个学生辍学,张养成了到每一个学生家里家访的习惯,这意味着她可能必须在深山里行走几个小时。stop sb from doing sth“阻止某人做某事”,前有To,用动词原形。故填(s)top。
【52题详解】
句意:到目前为止,这个学校已经帮助了近2000名女孩从贫穷的山区走进大学,成功地改写了她们的命运。根据“from poor mountains to enter”及首字母u可知此处用enter universities表示“进入大学,考进大学”。故填(u)niversities。

QUESTION
Dear Dale
I’ve been a crazy soccer fan since I was 9. I love soccer games, but my parents are angry with me about my hobbies, although they like watching soccer games too. Should I give up my hobbies?
Yours,
Mike Wang
ANSWER
Dear Mike,
When we grow up, our parents set examples for us to follow if we want to be good people. However, they’re still allowed to do things that we’re not, even if we don’t agree.
It may seem like that’s unfair (不公平), but as we all know, being a teenager usually isn’t fair. At the moment, you’re a high school student who is already 15, so it’s understandable for your parents to be mad as you pay more attention to your hobbies than school work. Not all of us have time to do whatever we like, whenever we like— even as adults.
Your parents just want you to be the best student you can. However, maybe you could talk and come to an agreement. For example, perhaps you could watch a soccer game with your parents once a week, after all your homework is done. That way, you could enjoy your hobby and be a good student at the same time.
Life is all about compromise (妥协), as you’ll soon learn.
While it’s great to have hobbies and interests, we still have to work hard and be responsible (有责任) before we can enjoy them. Once you’re an adult and get a job, you’ll find out that hobbies are only a small part of life-most of it is about working hard.
At the same time, however, you’ll soon see how watching your favorite team is even more fun after you’ve worked extra hard for it.
Yours,
Dale
