Her lessons are interesting and they always seem to go really fast. Even when we think something is too hard for us, she says she knows we can all do it, and she’s usually right! She also shows us drawings, photos and websites to explain how things work, which I love. Dan I have a fantastic science teacher called Mrs. Rhodes. She is able to draw wonderful pictures of plants on the board, which helps us understand them. She never seems to get tired or bored when she’s teaching. She takes time to get to know each student in the class so that she can help them better. I think she’s the reason I want to be a science teacher one day.

My marks went up almost immediately. . , . 第 59 页 共 160 页 ◎ 第 60 页 共 160 页 She’s interested in our lives and gives advice on how to be a better person. 21.

Great B Jenny knew she had a problem when she looked in her money box. It was only three days until the school trip to the beach, and Jenny didn’t have any money. To make things worse, her next pocket money was still six days away. “What’s the matter, Jenny?” asked her sister, Mary. “Mary,” said Jenny, “I’m in double trouble. I can’t go to the beach with my classmates, and I’ve broken my promise to Mom. I promised I’d stay within my budget (预算) this month.” For a few minutes, the two girls just sat and thought. Then Mary grabbed Jenny’s arm. “Jenny, I won’t give you the money, but I will help you. Just listen for a minute.” At first, Jenny wasn’t interested since Mary wasn’t willing to give her the money she needed. However, after Mary explained her plan, Jenny began to like it. Mary would lend Jenny the money for the beach trip, but Jenny would have to create a real budget for herself and follow it. In addition, if Jenny successfully followed the budget, Mary wouldn’t tell their mother about Jenny’s recent money disaster. “Mary, you are a lifesaver.” Jenny hugged Mary’s neck. The two sisters began to work together. After several hours, they agreed on how Jenny should use her money. Mary took their figures and made a graph (表格) for Jenny. Holding up the graph, Mary said, “Now you can see where your money should go each month,” “Thanks, Mary.” Jenny said. “But I know one thing that my money can’t buy. It couldn’t buy another great sister like you,” said Jenny. Then she hung her new budget on her bedroom wall. 24. What was Jenny’s problem? A. She had no friends. B. She had nothing to do. C. She had no money. D. She had no free time. 25. How did Mary help Jenny? A. By going to the beach with her. B. By buying things for the school trip for her. C. By telling Mom about her problem. D. By planning on how to use money with her. 26. What can we learn from the passage? A. Practice makes perfect. B. A useful way is better than direct help. .learntooldtooneverIt’s.C D. Imagination is more important than knowledge. C Project-based learning (项目化学习) is learning while doing. It gives learners the chance to get a deeper understanding of a topic. Students work on a project over a period of time—from a week to a term. At the end of the project, they show their knowledge and skills by creating a product for people. Let’s take the example of Sandra. Sandra is a student in Sunshine Primary School. She wanted to know more about Greek mythology (希腊神话). Well, how did she make it? Step 1 Choose a topic. She chose Greek mythology characters as the topic because she was interested in the characters and their stores. Step 2 Do the research. She had to learn about that topic and do some research on it. To collect information, she read books and articles about the history of Greek mythology. She also watched videos and played games all connected with Greek mythology. Step 3 Create a project When she collected her information, she was ready to create a project. She created a project based on (以……为基础) her talents and skills. She loves to build with Lego (乐高), so built Lego creations based on the stories of Greek mythology characters. She’s also really good at art, so she created a book about her favorite characters. In her book, she drew pictures of them and wrote the stories in her own words. Step 4 Do the presentation After all of that work, she made a living room presentation for Mom and Dad. Then she shared her project online with friends, and even shared it on social media. From the example, we can see through project work, students can not only learn deeply about a topic, but also have fun learning. So if you’re interested in something, why not start with project-based learning? 27. What did Sandra do first with her project work? A. She chose a topic. B. She did the research. C. She created a project. D. She did the presentation. 第 61 页 共 160 页 ◎ 第 62 页 共 160 页 28. What were the two products that Sandra created? A. Lego creations and a book. B. A story and videos. C. A game and some pictures. D. Books and articles. 29. Which questions could best help us find out the writer’s purpose? A. Did the writer introduce a famous school to us? B. Did the writer help us understand a new way of leaning? C. Did the writer ask us to develop more hobbies such as Lego? D. Did the writer advise us to read books about Greek mythology? text?theendwriterthedoesHow30. A. By giving an example. B. By showing a saying. C. By giving a suggestion. D. By showing facts with numbers. D When we try something new we often think that feeling uncomfortable means we’re in a situation that’s too hard to deal with. Embracing (拥抱) these feelings of stress and nervousness as a part of learning could help encourage personal growth, suggests a researcher. In his research, over 2,100 people took part in some personal growth activities, such as taking improve (即兴表演) classes. In each activity, researchers told some people that their goal was to feel uncomfortable or nervous. They were told that feeling uncomfortable was a sign that the activity was working. Other people weren’t told to embrace discomfort; instead, they simply paid attention to learning something or how they were developing their skills. Finally, the researchers found that the people who were told to try to feel uncomfortable were took part in their activities more actively and reported a greater sense of achievement compared to those who weren’t told to experience discomfort. For example, some improve students spent more time on stage. “Growing is often uncomfortable. People always see the discomfort that comes with growth as a sign that there’s a problem. However, we should consider it as a sign of progress instead of avoiding it,” say the researchers. If we learn to be comfortable with discomfort, we will grow stronger and make progress. The first step is to view discomfort differently. Think of discomfort as a sign that we are improving our lives and experiencing growth. Then take action instead of thinking. Rather than think about how difficult or uncomfortable a task might be, just do it. Whatever we do, try to go a little further than that point when we start feeling like we want to give up or when we are uncomfortable and want to take a break: run one more minute or kilometer than last time or write one more paragraph. No pain, no gain. It’s true! When we push ourselves to grow, we will experience discomfort, but it will be worth it. 31. What can we learn from the research mentioned in the passage? A. Experiencing little discomfort leads to great success. B. The attitude towards discomfort influences personal growth. C. The feeling of discomfort encourages people to try new things. D. Paying attention to what you’re learning weakens your discomfort. 32. What’s Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The ways to deal with discomfort. B. The advantages of embracing discomfort. C. The importance of running one more minute. D. The reasons to think of discomfort differently 33. Which word is close to the underlined word “view”? A. Find out B. Talk about C. Lead to D. Think of 34. Which of the following does the writer probably support? A. I try to speak in public although it makes me nervous. B. I start swimming when I find running is a bit challenging. C. I keep quiet in class because I’m afraid to answer questions. D. I don’t like singing before strangers, so I always sing to myself. 35. Which can be a proper title for the text? A. Avoid Discomfort B. Embracing Discomfort. C. A Famous Research D. Personal Growth Activities. Ⅸ.任务型阅读(共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，计 10 分) A map is a detailed picture of an area. Maps show us where things are, and they also show us how to get somewhere. All maps show a large area as a small drawing. There are some special parts on the map. Maps are much smaller than the areas they stand for. Maps have scales (比 例尺). These show how the distance on a map relates to the real distance. Some maps have scales written as a ratio (比 例). It shows how one length compares to another length. An inch on a map might equal a certain number of feet or miles on land. Maps include symbols for real things. The symbols depend on what the map is showing. For example, a large map of a state or country might have symbols for cities, highways, and rivers. A smaller map of a town may have symbols for hospitals, schools, and libraries. These symbols are all listed in one part of the map. It is called the key.

Chopsticks are usually made of bamboo or metal. When it comes to table manners, there are a few important rules to follow. Firstly, it’s considered impolite to stick your chopsticks upright in a bowl of rice. Secondly, it’s not good to use chopsticks to point at others or to play with them. Also, it’s important not to use chopsticks to move bowls or plates. Finally, it’s polite to wait until everyone at the table has their chopsticks before starting to eat. As for takeaway food, it’s common to ask for chopsticks when purchasing food to go. Many people prefer using chopsticks to protect the environment. It’s a small step towards reducing plastic waste. . I hope this gives you a better understanding of chopsticks and their cultural significance in China. Yours, Li Hua
