【例文】
We grow up in change. Growth makes our life full of meaning. Looking back on the three years of junior high school, I have experienced many changes in my study, thoughts, personality, life and so on. The biggest personal change I’ve ever made is that I have fallen in love with reading.
When I was a child, I didn’t enjoy books at all. Later, my mother always read stories for me and bought me books. Gradually, I began to love reading. While reading, I feel like talking with a wise man. Reading is also a fantastic way to enjoy my free time.
Now I have realized the importance of reading books. I have got used to reading every day. Books are my friends. And they will benefit me a lot.

Recently, the four major dictionaries — Collins, Cambridge, Webster’s, and Oxford — have announced their words of the year 2023.
Collins Dictionary—AI
AI is short for artificial intelligence (人工智能). It has developed quickly and was much talked about in 2023. In the near future, AI will become a usual technology like the Internet and e-mail, which influences people’s daily lives a lot.
Cambridge Dictionary—Hallucinate
The original (起初的) meaning of “hallucinate” is “to seem to see, hear, feel, or smell something that doesn’t exist (存在), usually because you are ill”. It now has a new meaning. When an AI “hallucinates”, it produces false information. The word was chosen because its new meaning tells us why people are discussing AI. It is a powerful tool, but we still need to learn how to use it safely.
Webster’s Dictionary—Authentic
In an age of deepfakes (深度伪造), as AI rises, the Webster’s word of the year 2023 is “authentic”. If something is authentic, it is real. In the Internet age, truth has become an important quality, it needs to be taken good care of.
Oxford Dictionary—Rizz

One cool morning in 1974, some Chinese farmers set out with their shovels (铁铲) across their shoulders. They were going to work on the well (井) they had been digging. They spoke and laughed pleasantly among themselves as they walked, but when they reached the well, they became more serious. Each man set his shovel into the soil and began to work quietly. Talking took energy away from the difficult task.
After some time, however, one of them cried out. “Look at this!” he shouted.
The others gathered around, intrigued.
“What is it?” asked one of the men.
“It is a bit of pottery (陶器),” answered another .
“Why, it looks like a face,” said the first man. “Perhaps it is part of a statue. We had better report this.”
Hearing about what the farmers had found, the government sent a team of archeologists (考古学家) to the well. As they began to explore the place, the archeologists found life-sized clay figures (泥塑). There were soldiers, horses, and more. Finally, over 7,000 clay figures were uncovered.
Those farmers working at the well did not know it, but they had discovered one of the world’s most amazing archeological findings. Who made these fine figures, and why?

Dreams. Ambitions (抱负). Everyone has them.
Some people dream of winning a big prize. Others want to travel around the world… Ellie Stevenson dreams of being a singer.
Ellie is a seventeen-year-old girl. She lives in a quiet village in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. She goes to school, has a part-time job in her Dad’s shop and enjoys spending time with her best friends, Cassie and Skye. This is the story of Ellie.
“Pencils down, please!”
I quickly try to finish writing one last sentence but Miss Jones sees me. “Ellie Stevenson! The exam is over!”
“Please, Miss… another thirty seconds… five?”
“Humph!” she says and takes my paper.
There is nothing that I can do now. I hate biology! I dream of being a singer, like Murphy. I want to study music at A level.
“You can’t study music!” said Dad when I told him at the start of the sixth grade, in September last year. “If you want a good career, you need to study science.”
“He’s right. The sciences are important, Ellie,” agreed Skye. “I’m going to study chemistry, biology, physics and math.”
“Boring! Why don’t you study French like me?” suggested Cassie. “Mr. Lake, the French teacher, is great!”
I never told anyone about my dream after that.
Now here I am trying not to fall asleep as Miss Jones finishes collecting the answer papers after the biology exam. I’m really tired. I close my eyes. I only want to rest for a minute. But soon I’m not in the exam room…
I’m on stage in front of thousands of fans. My fans! They are shouting my name… I start to play the guitar and they all cheer… they sing the words to my latest hit…
“Ellie! Ellie!” Miss Jones’s angry voice wakes me up.
“Eh…? Sorry?”
“It’s time to go home!” she says, shaking her head.
I’m the only person left in the room. Everyone else has already gone.
I was dreaming… again.
I feel stupid as I pick up my bag and walk towards the exit.
Outside, it’s raining. It’s spring but the sky is grey and miserable (令人难受的). It seems like it will rain forever and I haven’t got an umbrella.
① …
…
…
When I look into Murphy’s eyes, I know that maybe my dream is just beginning…
18.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE about Ellie?
A.Ellie does well in Biology and Chemistry.
B.Ellie finished her exam earlier than others.
C.Ellie’s love for music got support from her family.
D.All the other students in the exam room left before Ellie.
19.What is probably the hidden meaning of the underlined sentences?
A.Ellie doesn’t care about the weather in spring.
B.Ellie is sad because she hasn’t got an umbrella.
C.Ellie doesn’t like spring because it will rain forever.
D.Ellie feels blue because realizing her dream seems hard.
20.What is the most likely to happen to Ellie in the part ① ?

Thirty years ago, China started to build its own navigation satellite system (卫星导航系统), Beidou. It took its name from the Bigger Dipper stars, which are the guiding light for people around the world.
In 1994, China began making the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), so it wouldn’t have to use navigation systems from other countries. It’s a lot safer this way. In 2020, after over 20 years of hard work, Beidou completed its global network. The achievement placed China among the group of countries with their own global navigation network. The US, Russia and the European Union are the other three.
Beidou does not just show where you are. It’s also the first to let you send texts where there’s no phone signal (信号) or Internet. It has now been widely used in international rescue (救援) operations. “It can be of great help in earthquakes, when ground signals are completely cut off, ” Chen Suzhen, head of the Blue Sky Rescue Team in Xiamen, told CGTN.
On April 25, 2015, an earthquake hit Nepal. Lack of proper contact among international rescue teams created main problems in rescue operations. “Luckily, our team had BDS. With the short message service, I suggested that we should go to the remote areas where the situation was far worse. The BDS helped us a lot during the rescue. If every country uses the BDS, our future rescue operations will be far more effective,” Chen told CGTN.
With 5G technology now in wide use, the “5G + BDS” will be widely applied in conditions that require fast speed, precise (精确的) location and navigation services. For example, the BDS can even help farmers in China by providing precise information for planting and monitoring, making farming smarter.
The GPS and the BDS use the same way to find out position. We can see each satellite as the center of a ball, and its radius is the distance to the position. When there are three satellites, the position can be the two points where three balls meet. Compared with the GPS, the BDS provides navigation signals on multiple frequencies (多频信号) to improve service.
The BDS is more than a system. It shows China’s power in science and technology. Now over 120 countries are using it. Wherever you are, Beidou is there to help you find your way.
22.The following sentence would best be placed at the beginning of ________.
With its powerful performance, BDS is able to provide a series of services to meet different requirements.
A.Paragraph 3 B.Paragraph 4 C.Paragraph 5 D.Paragraph 6
23.Which of the following sentence has the closest meaning to “radius”?
A.Half of the straight line between the centre of the two satellites.
B.Half of the straight line between the centre of the ball and your position.
C.A straight line between the centre of the ball and any point on its surface.
D.A straight line between the centre of the satellite and the centre of the earth.
24.What can we learn about BDS?
A.It was praised highly by foreigners during the rescue.
B.It is used to help farmers plant crops in a modern way.
C.It can help send messages when phone is out of power.
D.It was widely used to meet different requirements in 2020.
25.The writing purpose of this passage is ________.
A.to describe the history of Beidou system
B.to explain the contributions of Beidou system
C.to show how to find the way by Beidou system
D.to introduce a kind of navigation satellite system

The stories in The Ice Cream Machine have the same title, but they each have a different plot(情节) about ice cream. One ice-cream story is about a boy and his robot in the future. Another is about a father and daughter who create an ice-cream machine. My favorite story in the book is about two sisters, Pam and Penelope, who try to enter an ice-cream-eating competition. As well as the stories above, there are four more stories in the books.
Its writer, Adam Rubin, has a lot of experience when it comes to writing about food. His most famous children’s book is Dragons Love Tacos. “I like to write about food because it’s loved by people of all different cultures,” Rubin says. “It’s something we all have something to do with.”
Rubin hopes The Ice Cream Machine inspires kids to write. Its jacket(护封)turns into an envelope in which readers can send him their stories. Rubin says writers should write about things they like. “If you’re trying to write to please someone else, you might not get it right. Then no one’s happy,” he says.
I recommend The Ice Cream Machine to anyone who likes creative and fun storytelling. The book goes down just like ice cream: smooth, enjoyable, and with a pleasant aftertaste(回味).
54.How many stories are there in all in the book?
55.Why does the Rubin write about food?
56.Do you think the book is worth reading? Why?

Recently, the four major dictionaries — Collins, Cambridge, Webster’s, and Oxford — have announced their words of the year 2023.
Collins Dictionary—AI
AI is short for artificial intelligence (人工智能). It has developed quickly and was much talked about in 2023. In the near future, AI will become a usual technology like the Internet and e-mail, which influences people’s daily lives a lot.
Cambridge Dictionary—Hallucinate
The original (起初的) meaning of “hallucinate” is “to seem to see, hear, feel, or smell something that doesn’t exist (存在), usually because you are ill”. It now has a new meaning. When an AI “hallucinates”, it produces false information. The word was chosen because its new meaning tells us why people are discussing AI. It is a powerful tool, but we still need to learn how to use it safely.
Webster’s Dictionary—Authentic
In an age of deepfakes (深度伪造), as AI rises, the Webster’s word of the year 2023 is “authentic”. If something is authentic, it is real. In the Internet age, truth has become an important quality, it needs to be taken good care of.
Oxford Dictionary—Rizz

B.In the Internet age, truth is not very important.
C.In the age of AI ,the meaning of “hallucinate” doesn’t change.
D.If Jim says he has no rizz at all, he means that he’s attractive.

【答案】11.D 12.A 13.B
【导语】本文介绍了四大字典的2023年度单词。

One cool morning in 1974, some Chinese farmers set out with their shovels (铁铲) across their shoulders. They were going to work on the well (井) they had been digging. They spoke and laughed pleasantly among themselves as they walked, but when they reached the well, they became more serious. Each man set his shovel into the soil and began to work quietly.

Dreams. Ambitions (抱负). Everyone has them.
Some people dream of winning a big prize. Others want to travel around the world… Ellie Stevenson dreams of being a singer.
Ellie is a seventeen-year-old girl. She lives in a quiet village in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. She goes to school, has a part-time job in her Dad’s shop and enjoys spending time with her best friends, Cassie and Skye. This is the story of Ellie.
“Pencils down, please!”
I quickly try to finish writing one last sentence but Miss Jones sees me. “Ellie Stevenson! The exam is over!”
“Please, Miss… another thirty seconds… five?”
“Humph!” she says and takes my paper.
There is nothing that I can do now. I hate biology! I dream of being a singer, like Murphy. I want to study music at A level.
“You can’t study music!” said Dad when I told him at the start of the sixth grade, in September last year. “If you want a good career, you need to study science.”
“He’s right. The sciences are important, Ellie,” agreed Skye. “I’m going to study chemistry, biology, physics and math.”
“Boring! Why don’t you study French like me?” suggested Cassie. “Mr. Lake, the French teacher, is great!”
I never told anyone about my dream after that.
Now here I am trying not to fall asleep as Miss Jones finishes collecting the answer papers after the biology exam. I’m really tired. I close my eyes. I only want to rest for a minute. But soon I’m not in the exam room…
I’m on stage in front of thousands of fans. My fans! They are shouting my name… I start to play the guitar and they all cheer… they sing the words to my latest hit…
“Ellie! Ellie!” Miss Jones’s angry voice wakes me up.
“Eh…? Sorry?”
“It’s time to go home!” she says, shaking her head.
I’m the only person left in the room. Everyone else has already gone.
I was dreaming… again.
I feel stupid as I pick up my bag and walk towards the exit.
Outside, it’s raining. It’s spring but the sky is grey and miserable (令人难受的). It seems like it will rain forever and I haven’t got an umbrella.

When I look into Murphy’s eyes, I know that maybe my dream is just beginning…

D
Thirty years ago, China started to build its own navigation satellite system (卫星导航系统), Beidou. It took its name from the Bigger Dipper stars, which are the guiding light for people around the world.
In 1994, China began making the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), so it wouldn’t have to use navigation systems from other countries. It’s a lot safer this way. In 2020, after over 20 years of hard work, Beidou completed its global network. The achievement placed China among the group of countries with their own global navigation network. The US, Russia and the European Union are the other three.
Beidou does not just show where you are. It’s also the first to let you send texts where there’s no phone signal (信号) or Internet. It has now been widely used in international rescue (救援) operations. “It can be of great help in earthquakes, when ground signals are completely cut off, ” Chen Suzhen, head of the Blue Sky Rescue Team in Xiamen, told CGTN.
On April 25, 2015, an earthquake hit Nepal. Lack of proper contact among international rescue teams created main problems in rescue operations. “Luckily, our team had BDS. With the short message service, I suggested that we should go to the remote areas where the situation was far worse. The BDS helped us a lot during the rescue. If every country uses the BDS, our future rescue operations will be far more effective,” Chen told CGTN.
With 5G technology now in wide use, the “5G + BDS” will be widely applied in conditions that require fast speed, precise (精确的) location and navigation services. For example, the BDS can even help farmers in China by providing precise information for planting and monitoring, making farming smarter.
The GPS and the BDS use the same way to find out position. We can see each satellite as the center of a ball, and its radius is the distance to the position. When there are three satellites, the position can be the two points where three balls meet. Compared with the GPS, the BDS provides navigation signals on multiple frequencies (多频信号) to improve service.
The BDS is more than a system. It shows China’s power in science and technology. Now over 120 countries are using it. Wherever you are, Beidou is there to help you find your way.
22.The following sentence would best be placed at the beginning of ________.
With its powerful performance, BDS is able to provide a series of services to meet different requirements.
A.Paragraph 3 B.Paragraph 4 C.Paragraph 5 D.Paragraph 6
23.Which of the following sentence has the closest meaning to “radius”?
A.Half of the straight line between the centre of the two satellites.
B.Half of the straight line between the centre of the ball and your position.
C.A straight line between the centre of the ball and any point on its surface.
D.A straight line between the centre of the satellite and the centre of the earth.
24.What can we learn about BDS?
A.It was praised highly by foreigners during the rescue.
B.It is used to help farmers plant crops in a modern way.
C.It can help send messages when phone is out of power.
D.It was widely used to meet different requirements in 2020.
25.The writing purpose of this passage is ________.
A.to describe the history of Beidou system
B.to explain the contributions of Beidou system
C.to show how to find the way by Beidou system
D.to introduce a kind of navigation satellite system
【答案】22.A 23.C 24.B 25.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了北斗卫星导航系统。
22.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Beidou does not just show where you are. It’s also the first to let you send texts where there’s no phone signal (信号) or Internet. It has now been widely used in international rescue (救援) operations.”可知,此处说明了北斗卫星导航系统的多种用途,所以所给句子放在第三段句首最为合适,作为本段的总起句。故选A。
23. 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句子“We can see each satellite as the center of a ball, and its radius is the distance to the position.”可猜测出,radius意为“半径” ,指的是球心到球面上任意一点之间的直线段。故选C。
24.细节理解题。根据第五段中的“For example, the BDS can even help farmers in China by providing precise information for planting and monitoring, making farming smarter.”可知,北斗卫星导航系统被用来帮助农民以现代方式种植作物。故选B。
25.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了北斗卫星导航系统,即介绍了一种卫星导航系统。故选D。

The stories in The Ice Cream Machine have the same title, but they each have a different plot(情节) about ice cream. One ice-cream story is about a boy and his robot in the future. Another is about a father and daughter who create an ice-cream machine. My favorite story in the book is about two sisters, Pam and Penelope, who try to enter an ice-cream-eating competition. As well as the stories above, there are four more stories in the books.
Its writer, Adam Rubin, has a lot of experience when it comes to writing about food. His most famous children’s book is Dragons Love Tacos. “I like to write about food because it’s loved by people of all different cultures,” Rubin says. “It’s something we all have something to do with.”
Rubin hopes The Ice Cream Machine inspires kids to write. Its jacket(护封)turns into an envelope in which readers can send him their stories. Rubin says writers should write about things they like. “If you’re trying to write to please someone else, you might not get it right. Then no one’s happy,” he says.
I recommend The Ice Cream Machine to anyone who likes creative and fun storytelling. The book goes down just like ice cream: smooth, enjoyable, and with a pleasant aftertaste(回味).

56.Yes. Because the book is very creative and fun.
【导语】本文作者介绍了《冰激凌机器》这本书中的故事,并推荐大家去读这本有趣的书。
54.根据“One ice-cream story is about ... Another is about ... My favorite story in the book is about ... As well as the stories above, there are four more stories in the books.”可知,这本书一共包括7个故事。故填Seven./There are seven stories in the book.
55.根据“I like to write about food because it’s loved by people of all different cultures”可知,他写关于食物的故事是因为在各种文化中,食物都为人所爱。故填Because it’s loved by people of all different cultures.
56.答案不唯一,合理即可,参考答案为Yes. Because the book is very creative and fun.

Recently, the four major dictionaries — Collins, Cambridge, Webster’s, and Oxford — have announced their words of the year 2023.
Collins Dictionary—AI
AI is short for artificial intelligence (人工智能). It has developed quickly and was much talked about in 2023. In the near future, AI will become a usual technology like the Internet and e-mail, which influences people’s daily lives a lot.
Cambridge Dictionary—Hallucinate
The original (起初的) meaning of “hallucinate” is “to seem to see, hear, feel, or smell something that doesn’t exist (存在), usually because you are ill”. It now has a new meaning. When an AI “hallucinates”, it produces false information. The word was chosen because its new meaning tells us why people are discussing AI. It is a powerful tool, but we still need to learn how to use it safely.
Webster’s Dictionary—Authentic
In an age of deepfakes (深度伪造), as AI rises, the Webster’s word of the year 2023 is “authentic”. If something is authentic, it is real. In the Internet age, truth has become an important quality, it needs to be taken good care of.
Oxford Dictionary—Rizz

One cool morning in 1974, some Chinese farmers set out with their shovels (铁铲) across their shoulders. They were going to work on the well (井) they had been digging. They spoke and laughed pleasantly among themselves as they walked, but when they reached the well, they became more serious. Each man set his shovel into the soil and began to work quietly. Talking took energy away from the difficult task.
After some time, however, one of them cried out. “Look at this!” he shouted.
The others gathered around, intrigued.
“What is it?” asked one of the men.
“It is a bit of pottery (陶器),” answered another .
“Why, it looks like a face,” said the first man. “Perhaps it is part of a statue. We had better report this.”
Hearing about what the farmers had found, the government sent a team of archeologists (考古学家) to the well. As they began to explore the place, the archeologists found life-sized clay figures (泥塑). There were soldiers, horses, and more. Finally, over 7,000 clay figures were uncovered.

Dreams. Ambitions (抱负). Everyone has them.
Some people dream of winning a big prize. Others want to travel around the world… Ellie Stevenson dreams of being a singer.
Ellie is a seventeen-year-old girl. She lives in a quiet village in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. She goes to school, has a part-time job in her Dad’s shop and enjoys spending time with her best friends, Cassie and Skye. This is the story of Ellie.
“Pencils down, please!”
I quickly try to finish writing one last sentence but Miss Jones sees me. “Ellie Stevenson! The exam is over!”
“Please, Miss… another thirty seconds… five?”
“Humph!” she says and takes my paper.
There is nothing that I can do now. I hate biology! I dream of being a singer, like Murphy. I want to study music at A level.
“You can’t study music!” said Dad when I told him at the start of the sixth grade, in September last year. “If you want a good career, you need to study science.”
“He’s right. The sciences are important, Ellie,” agreed Skye. “I’m going to study chemistry, biology, physics and math.”
“Boring! Why don’t you study French like me?” suggested Cassie. “Mr. Lake, the French teacher, is great!”
I never told anyone about my dream after that.
Now here I am trying not to fall asleep as Miss Jones finishes collecting the answer papers after the biology exam. I’m really tired. I close my eyes. I only want to rest for a minute. But soon I’m not in the exam room…
I’m on stage in front of thousands of fans. My fans! They are shouting my name… I start to play the guitar and they all cheer… they sing the words to my latest hit…
“Ellie! Ellie!” Miss Jones’s angry voice wakes me up.
“Eh…? Sorry?”
“It’s time to go home!” she says, shaking her head.
I’m the only person left in the room. Everyone else has already gone.
I was dreaming… again.
I feel stupid as I pick up my bag and walk towards the exit.
Outside, it’s raining. It’s spring but the sky is grey and miserable (令人难受的). It seems like it will rain forever and I haven’t got an umbrella.
① …
…
…
When I look into Murphy’s eyes, I know that maybe my dream is just beginning…

Thirty years ago, China started to build its own navigation satellite system (卫星导航系统), Beidou. It took its name from the Bigger Dipper stars, which are the guiding light for people around the world.
In 1994, China began making the Beidou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), so it wouldn’t have to use navigation systems from other countries. It’s a lot safer this way. In 2020, after over 20 years of hard work, Beidou completed its global network. The achievement placed China among the group of countries with their own global navigation network. The US, Russia and the European Union are the other three.
Beidou does not just show where you are. It’s also the first to let you send texts where there’s no phone signal (信号) or Internet. It has now been widely used in international rescue (救援) operations. “It can be of great help in earthquakes, when ground signals are completely cut off, ” Chen Suzhen, head of the Blue Sky Rescue Team in Xiamen, told CGTN.
On April 25, 2015, an earthquake hit Nepal. Lack of proper contact among international rescue teams created main problems in rescue operations. “Luckily, our team had BDS. With the short message service, I suggested that we should go to the remote areas where the situation was far worse. The BDS helped us a lot during the rescue. If every country uses the BDS, our future rescue operations will be far more effective,” Chen told CGTN.
With 5G technology now in wide use, the “5G + BDS” will be widely applied in conditions that require fast speed, precise (精确的) location and navigation services. For example, the BDS can even help farmers in China by providing precise information for planting and monitoring, making farming smarter.
The GPS and the BDS use the same way to find out position. We can see each satellite as the center of a ball, and its radius is the distance to the position. When there are three satellites, the position can be the two points where three balls meet. Compared with the GPS, the BDS provides navigation signals on multiple frequencies (多频信号) to improve service.
The BDS is more than a system. It shows China’s power in science and technology. Now over 120 countries are using it. Wherever you are, Beidou is there to help you find your way.
22.The following sentence would best be placed at the beginning of ________.
With its powerful performance, BDS is able to provide a series of services to meet different requirements.
A.Paragraph 3 B.Paragraph 4 C.Paragraph 5 D.Paragraph 6
23.Which of the following sentence has the closest meaning to “radius”?
A.Half of the straight line between the centre of the two satellites.
B.Half of the straight line between the centre of the ball and your position.
C.A straight line between the centre of the ball and any point on its surface.
D.A straight line between the centre of the satellite and the centre of the earth.
24.What can we learn about BDS?
A.It was praised highly by foreigners during the rescue.
B.It is used to help farmers plant crops in a modern way.
C.It can help send messages when phone is out of power.
D.It was widely used to meet different requirements in 2020.
25.The writing purpose of this passage is ________.
A.to describe the history of Beidou system
B.to explain the contributions of Beidou system
C.to show how to find the way by Beidou system
D.to introduce a kind of navigation satellite system

The stories in The Ice Cream Machine have the same title, but they each have a different plot(情节) about ice cream. One ice-cream story is about a boy and his robot in the future. Another is about a father and daughter who create an ice-cream machine. My favorite story in the book is about two sisters, Pam and Penelope, who try to enter an ice-cream-eating competition. As well as the stories above, there are four more stories in the books.
Its writer, Adam Rubin, has a lot of experience when it comes to writing about food. His most famous children’s book is Dragons Love Tacos. “I like to write about food because it’s loved by people of all different cultures,” Rubin says. “It’s something we all have something to do with.”
Rubin hopes The Ice Cream Machine inspires kids to write. Its jacket(护封)turns into an envelope in which readers can send him their stories. Rubin says writers should write about things they like. “If you’re trying to write to please someone else, you might not get it right. Then no one’s happy,” he says.
I recommend The Ice Cream Machine to anyone who likes creative and fun storytelling. The book goes down just like ice cream: smooth, enjoyable, and with a pleasant aftertaste(回味).

56.Do you think the book is worth reading? Why?
