Recently, a father called Daming and his son Dongshun’s photos became hot all over China. In the photos, while they are working on the boat on Dongting Lake, lots of fish are jumping into the fish bin (鱼舱). Dongting Lake is the second freshwater (淡水) lake in China, it’s home to nearly 400 kinds of fishes. But in the past, people threw litter and factories put waste water into the lake. Even worse, a large number of fish were caught by fishermen. Because of pollution and overfishing (过度捕捞), the Yangtze River was in great danger. For example, the Chinese paddlefish (中华白鲟) disappeared 2 years ago. Daming used to make a living by fishing near Dongting Lake. However, life was gradually becoming difficult for Daming and other fishermen. The more times they went to fish, the fewer fish they could get. In January, 2020, the government called for a 10-year fishing ban (禁渔令), covering 332 conservation areas (保护区) in the Yangtze River. Dongshun has worked with his father as a lake ranger (巡湖员) for almost 3 years. This job helps him understand how important it is to protect Dongting Lake. “I think this job is meaningful.” he said, “As the wind is blowing gently, fish are swimming happily. What a beautiful scene! The fishing ban will lead Dongting Lake to a better future.” 1．Why was the Yangtze River in great danger in the past from the passage? 2．How did Daming use to make a living? 3．What did the government call for in January, 2020? 4．What is Dongshun’s job now? 5．What do you think of Dongting Lake’s future? (自拟一句话作答) 阅读短文后回答问题 Venice is in the north-east of Italy. It attracts more than three million tourists from all over the world every year. Venice is a city of water, because it is built on 117 small islands in a saltwater lake along the Adriatic Sea (亚得里亚海). The city has more than 400 bridges to connect all these islands. The city also has more than 177 canals (运河), so nobody can drive a car in Venice. Without the noise and pollution from the cars, Venice is among the most comfortable and quietest cities in the world for visitors. Then how do people move around the city? They have to walk around by themselves, or they can take a ride in the famous local boat—the gondola. In the past, it was the only way to travel in Venice. Now it’s mainly used by tourists to see this beautiful city. Tourists can also take part in the Venice Carnival (狂欢节) in April or the Venice Film Festival in August to get a taste of this famous city on the water. 1．How many tourists visit Venice every year? 2．What connects the islands in Venice? 3．Why can’t everybody drive a car in Venice? 4．How can tourists see the city of Venice? 5．When can you take part in the Venice Film Festival? Xu Xiake was known in China as a great explorer (探险家), geographer and travel writer. Born in 1587, he loved reading books about geography and nature and from an early age wished to see the natural wonders of the country. Xu started to travel at the age of 22 with the encouragement of his mother. As well as exploring famous mountains and rivers, he went to places that had never been visited before. His first journeys lasted only a few months so that he could often return home. But by 1639, about two years before his death, Xu had been traveling for years at a time, covering almost half of modern China. Unlike most travelers these days, Xu traveled the hard way—on foot. He showed great courage during his journeys. He often went without food for days and suffered (遭受) bad weather, illness, dangerous animals and even robbers. Xu wrote about his discoveries in his travel diaries, which are the earliest records of landscapes (风景) in Southern China. Xu’s own experiences enabled him to correct several mistakes in earlier books. One of his most important discoveries was that the Jinsha River was the true source of the Yangze River. At more than 600,000 words, Xu’s diaries are regarded as one of the greatest works in both scientific and literary fields. Translated into modern Chinese, it is amazing to hear the voice of Xu Xiake speaking to us across the centuries about his adventures. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题 1．When did Xu Xiake start to travel? 2．Why did his first journeys last only a few months? 3．How did Xu Xiake travel? 4．Were Xu's discoveries the earliest records of landscapes in Southern China or Northern China? 5．How do people like Xu’s diaries?

Huang Quande looked like this when tourists took photos with him on the Lijiang River in Guilin, Guangxi. He became so famous online that many believed the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan renminbi banknote (纸币) was based on him. Sadly, Huang died at the age of 94 on Feb 1, 2023. Huang gave up fishing and became a photo model in 2008. He showed the true spirit (精神) of Lijiang River—being positive and friendly. In his 90s, Huang could still move his boat with speed. The image of the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan banknote is not just about one man. Instead, it is a cultural symbol of Guilin landscape (风景) commented Guangming Daily. In fact, the different backsides of the fifth series of renminbi banknotes show the most iconic (标志性的) landscapes in China. Each of them carries its own cultural value. For example on the back of the 5-yuan banknote is Mount Tai in Shandong. In ancient times many emperors would go there and pray (祈祷) for the country. On the back of the 1-yuan banknote are the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon (三潭映月) in West Lake, Zhejiang. It is a great place for moon watchers during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of the renminbi pictures, these places have attracted more tourists than before. Following the banknotes from 1 yuan to 100, Pan Jinyu from Chongqing had a “banknote tour” when he was 21. “I want to finish a ceremonial (有仪式感的) journey and feel the beauty of our country” Pan told Chongqing Economic Times. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题, 每题答案不超过6个词。 1．When did the old fisherman die? 2．What is the true spirit of Lijiang River? 3．On which banknote is the picture of Mount Tai in Shandong? 4．Why are there more tourists than before in these places? 5．What do you think of these renminbi pictures? 阅读下面短文，完成短文后的问题。 Walt Disney was one of the most famous people ever to have lived.

This is the magic of a smart home. A smart home is a special home where you can remotely control things with your phone. There are many kinds of smart home products, from making your home warm to making it bright, and even keeping you safe. And they really are “smart”. Smart home apps even have self-learning skills. It means that they can learn when you usually do things and change to suit you. Some can also set lights to change based on sunrise or sunset times. And some systems can tell you if there is someone in your home when you are not there, or even call for help if there is danger. Although smart homes are getting more popular in China and around the world, there are some problems from time to time. Paul Boag, a man from the UK who helps people with their technology, wrote that it is not always easy to set up these smart things. Even his wife, who used to be an engineer, found fitting the smart home light switches (开关) was a huge challenge for her. Besides, the smart home apps can be trouble. Many of them are not designed well, and each device (设备) has its own app. This means you have to deal with a lot of apps. But except for these problems, smart homes are still a great way to make life easier. 1．What is a smart home? 2．What are the disadvantages of smart homes? 3．What other “smart” skills do you want your home to have?

Last week we went on a school trip to a science museum. Ms. Liu, the guide, showed us around a smart home. We started with the front door. Ms. Liu asked me to ring the doorbell. I didn’t notice the tiny camera that was fixed just above it. After I pressed (按) the doorbell, the camera sent a live video (视频直播) to the home-owners. “They can electronically open the door when they are not at home,” said Ms. Liu. The other thing I couldn’t see on the door was a lock. “There must be one.” I thought. At this time, Ms. Liu took out a smart phone and put it against the door. And it opened. “Oh, the key is on the smart phone.” After entering the living room, I saw a computer on a table. By using the computer, the owners can control how much energy is used. In this way, they can manage their living cost. One of the rooms I wanted to see most was the bedroom. To my great surprise, the bed disappeared into the floor at the touch of the smart phone. The window has a smart blind (百叶窗). It can be raised and lowered with a voice. As I left the smart home, I looked back on what I had just seen. Scientists often say that these products are improving our life. I think the technology in the smart home may make us lazier. However, there is no doubt that it will become more popular in the homes of tomorrow. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1．Where did Ms. Liu show the students around? 2．How can they open the door when the home-owners are not at home? 3．Where is the key to the door? 4．What did the writer see on the table after entering the living room? 5．How did the smart blind work? 阅读短文，简略回答所提出的问题。 Many people choose to go to the movie theater on weekends.

There was no sound in the movies until the early 1920s and by the mid-1930s, some were in full color. It’s said that Nickelodeon was the first movie theater in the world and it had 96 seats.

As soon as I turn off our devices, it felt strange and even frightening. The first day was OK because I was at school, so there was no need for electronics anyway. But that evening, after I’ve done my homework, I felt a little lost. I missed being in touch with my friends. I didn’t know what else to do to kill time. The next day at school, I heard other people talking about a video they had seen on YouTube. They were laughing and joking, but I could not take part in the conversation because I hadn’t seen it. That evening I spend the usual amount of time doing my homework, but instead of checking on my phone. I read a really good book I was recommended to read. With no message coming in, I was able to give it all my attention. On Thursday I played football straight after school. When I got home, I felt really relaxed. I even took up something which I always wanted to do: Playing the guitar! Well, I was not proud of music that came out of my instrument, but I didn’t really think about using my phone.

As a child, Alain Robert was afraid of heights. One day, when he was 12, he returned home from school. At the front door of his building, he looked for his keys. He didn’t have them. It was 3:30, and his parents worked until 6:00 p.m. Robert looked at his apartment on the eighth floor. He saw an open window. He closed his eyes and pictured himself climbing the building. When he opened his eyes, he told himself, “I can do it.” A quarter of an hour later, he was in his house, and his fear of heights was gone. Today, Robert (known as the French Spideman) still climbs buildings. In 2004, he climbed Taipei 101(the tallest building in the world at the time), and in 2011 he climbed the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai. To reach the top of a building, Robert usually uses only his hands and special shoes. To climb the Burj Khalifa Tower, though, he was made to wear safety ropes. Robert climbs as a hobby. He also does it to make money for charity (for children and the homeless). Climbing is his passion. Although many climbing accidents have left him seriously disabled, he has become one of the best solo climbers in the world. Alain says in an interview, “We set ourselves limits, but we are all strong enough to aim higher, to achieve our goals.

He became so famous online that many believed the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan renminbi banknote (纸币) was based on him. Sadly, Huang died at the age of 94 on Feb 1, 2023. Huang gave up fishing and became a photo model in 2008. He showed the true spirit (精神) of Lijiang River—being positive and friendly. In his 90s, Huang could still move his boat with speed. The image of the fisherman on the back of the 20-yuan banknote is not just about one man. Instead, it is a cultural symbol of Guilin landscape (风景) commented Guangming Daily. In fact, the different backsides of the fifth series of renminbi banknotes show the most iconic (标志性的) landscapes in China. Each of them carries its own cultural value. For example on the back of the 5-yuan banknote is Mount Tai in Shandong. In ancient times many emperors would go there and pray (祈祷) for the country. On the back of the 1-yuan banknote are the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon (三潭映月) in West Lake, Zhejiang. It is a great place for moon watchers during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of the renminbi pictures, these places have attracted more tourists than before. Following the banknotes from 1 yuan to 100, Pan Jinyu from Chongqing had a “banknote tour” when he was 21. “I want to finish a ceremonial (有仪式感的) journey and feel the beauty of our country” Pan told Chongqing Economic Times. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题, 每题答案不超过6个词。 1．When did the old fisherman die? 2．What is the true spirit of Lijiang River? 3．On which banknote is the picture of Mount Tai in Shandong? 4．Why are there more tourists than before in these places? 5．What do you think of these renminbi pictures? 【答案】1．At the age of 94./On Feb 1, 2023. 2．Being positive and friendly. 3．(On) the 5-yuan banknote. 4．Because of the renminbi pictures. 5．Beautiful/Interesting/Wonderful…（言之有理即可） 【导语】本文主要写了一个名叫黄全德的渔民在桂林漓江上成为了网络名人，甚至有人认为20元人民币上的渔民形象就是以他为原型。黄全德在90多岁时还能快速驾驶自己的船，他被认为展现了漓江的真实面貌。他在2008年成为了一名摄影模特，与世界各地的游客合影。人民币的背面展示了中国最具代表性的风景，每一张都有其独特的文化价值。 1．根据“Sadly, Huang died at the age of 94 on Feb 1, 2023.”可知他去世时是2023年2月1日，享年94岁，故填At the age of 94./On Feb 1, 2023. 2．根据“He showed the true spirit (精神) of Lijiang River—being positive and friendly. ”可知丽江精神是积极友好的精神，故填Being positive and friendly. 3．根据“For example on the back of the 5-yuan banknote is Mount Tai in Shandong.”可知5元钞票的背面是山东的泰山，故填(On) the 5-yuan banknote. 4．根据“Because of the renminbi pictures, these places have attracted more tourists than before. ”可知因为人民币的图案，这些地方吸引了比以前更多的游客，故填Because of the renminbi pictures. 5．开放性作答，言之有理即可。参考答案为Beautiful/Interesting/Wonderful… 阅读下面短文，完成短文后的问题。 Walt Disney was one of the most famous people ever to have lived.

One day, when he was 12, he returned home from school. At the front door of his building, he looked for his keys. He didn’t have them. It was 3:30, and his parents worked until 6:00 p.m. Robert looked at his apartment on the eighth floor. He saw an open window. He closed his eyes and pictured himself climbing the building. When he opened his eyes, he told himself, “I can do it.” A quarter of an hour later, he was in his house, and his fear of heights was gone. Today, Robert (known as the French Spideman) still climbs buildings. In 2004, he climbed Taipei 101(the tallest building in the world at the time), and in 2011 he climbed the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai. To reach the top of a building, Robert usually uses only his hands and special shoes. To climb the Burj Khalifa Tower, though, he was made to wear safety ropes. Robert climbs as a hobby. He also does it to make money for charity (for children and the homeless). Climbing is his passion. Although many climbing accidents have left him seriously disabled, he has become one of the best solo climbers in the world. Alain says in an interview, “We set ourselves limits, but we are all strong enough to aim higher, to achieve our goals. All we have to do is find such strength within ourselves.” When Robert climbs, he wants to send a message to people. If you have a dream—something you really want to do—it can become real.
