The Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms, with Awakening of Insects(惊蛰) being the third. It falls on March 5 and lasts until March 19 this year. In ancient Chinese stories, when the loud spring thunder cracks (破裂) the sky, it wakes up the sleeping insects. 1
This time marks the start of spring and brings a rise in temperature and rainfall. 2 The warm weather and rainfall also make the earth come alive again. There is more rain and sunlight, which are great for farming. Farmers say, “Once the Awakening of Insects comes, spring plowing never rests. “Chinese people in ancient times observed that in the first five days, peach blossoms bloomed, in the second five days, black-naped oriole (仓庚) birds started singing, and in the third, eagles hid but pigeons and doves appeared.
3 One popular one is eating pears. Some believe pears help cool the body, especially when the weather gets hot. Others think eating pears can keep pests away from crops and bring good harvest. 4 In Guangdong and Hong Kong, there is a fun tradition called “Villain Hitting (打小人).” People hit paper shaped like troublemakers to bring good luck and get rid of bad things.

“When being with friends, the relationship will get worse if you keep leaving something unsaid instead of communicating with each other positively (积极地).” Franco said. We might be afraid of having arguments. But if we think about it and talk in peace, it can be a sign that you care enough to fix the friendship.
Allow yourself to feel sad
7 Allow yourself to feel those feelings and be patient with yourself. Franco said, “When society doesn’t value a relationship that you’re losing, you have trouble grieving.” It makes the grief last longer. We should think like “Of course, I’m sad, I lost someone I’m close to”. Instead of being like “What’s wrong with me?” “And you can’t put a timeline on grief. Grief is just a process of feeling emotion over time.” Franco said.

What comes to mind when you hear the word “instrument”? The violin, piano or guitar? However, we all have an instrument that we are born with-our voices.
My school choral (合唱的) program started a cappella group (无伴奏合唱团). 33 The beats and other parts of music, which are usually taken up by instruments like drums, piano, or guitar, are all made by the human voice. The group has been made up of many musically talented students every year. 34 However, not all people see choral music in a good way. Some may think that singers are people who are not able to play a real “instrument”. 35 Singers in the cappella group spend just as much time on their voices and have also achieved great success. My school’s Honors cappella group is famous across the state. They perform in cities around the nation every year. It holds its own concerts, wins national competitions, and even brings out its own music albums (专辑). Each singer in the group is unique in their own way, with some having amazing singing abilities, others doing cool beatboxing (节奏口技), and some even making up their own songs.
36 And our voices are the most enjoyable instrument there is.
A.Many students interview for this popular group, hoping to become the school’s next rising star.
B.But that is far from the truth.
C.Music is a form of art in which all types of instruments can join in.
D.This is a special musical group that produces songs simply with their voices, with no other instrument required!
E.Singing groups give students the opportunities to shine.

Passage 2(2024·辽宁营口·一模)
How do you usually decide where to go on vacation? Will you decide where to travel because of the local landmarks (地标)? 49 Recently, a new way of travelling—“food tourism” has become popular.
“Food tourism” means that people travel to new places to try the local food. 50 For example, you can try street food, visit food markets, or eat at local restaurants. And a 2023 survey from Hello Fresh found that 74% of Americans who have travelled in the last five years went for the food. The top four countries that Americans said they want to visit for their food are Italy, France, Spain and Japan.
51 A 2022 survey by Eurostar asked 2,000 people in Britain what their main reason was for choosing where to go on vacation. 61% of people said “the food” and 41% of people said they would travel hundreds of kilometers to find the perfect meal. Some people even like to take part in the cooking themselves. 46% of people said they have taken part in cooking lessons when travelling.
The survey also found that British people like to try new and different foods when they are travelling. Nearly half of people believe that they are more adventurous (大胆的) with what they eat when they are away from home. 52 Another survey from 2023 said that Italy, Spain and France are the top three European countries that they’d like to choose.

Passage 3(2024·辽宁沈阳·一模)
Most people love animals. Many children’s books and TV shows use animals as the main characters. Probably many people who you know care for animals as pets. 29
In the past, zoos were usually started by rich rulers. The first zoo was started by a queen in Egypt in 1500 BC.She collected the animals from Africa. Collecting animals was a way for a ruler to show off his or her wealth and power. 30 Sadly, the animals in the early zoos and animal shows were not treated well. Often they were not given much food to eat. Sometimes they were hit.
These days, zoos are still for entertainment, but they also try to protect animals and teach people as well. 31 People must provide animals with a clean place to live, food and water; and health care. In this way, the rules help protect the animals.
32 They want to do more to protect the animals they love. For example, people were against the use of killer whales in shows at Sea World. Many people thought the big killer whales did not have enough space in the park’s small pools. They also thought that the animals were treated badly. With so many people against them, Sea World decided to end all killer whale shows.
When people try to protect animals while enjoying them at the same time, the animals and people can both benefit.
A.They often break the rules.
B.Some people think the rules are not enough.
C.Animal shows started much later in the 1800s.
D.In addition, both zoos and animal shows must follow rules.
E.The love for animals may be why both children and adults enjoy going to zoos and animal shows.

Passage 4(2024·湖南株洲·一模)
Do you like watching films? Today let’s know about some special films.
Animation (动画片)
Animation is one of the oldest special kinds in the film world. It began in the early 1900s. It is not difficult but it does take a lot of time and hard work.
First, someone paints or draws a picture. Then they take a picture of it. They make another picture, which is just a little bit different from the first one, and take another picture. 17
Animated films of any kind take a lot of time to make, but in the end, these special films are touching, funny or simply amazing.
IMAX films
IMAX is short for “Image Maximum (巨幕电影)”. When you watch an IMAX film, you don’t sit up—you lie back. 18 The screen is above, in front of and around you.
In order to create its effects, IMAX films use different theatres, cameras and film from other movies. Most IMAX theatres are in museums, science centers and theme (主题) parks. The IMAX camera is very large and uses a lot of film. It is also very heavy. 19
3-D films
3-D films are not new. They first appeared in 1903. The inventors wanted viewers to feel like they were really inside the movie they were watching! When you watch a 3-D movie, you feel as if the people on the screen are close enough to touch and that the airplane flying at you is flying right off the screen.
20 Usually, one side of the glasses is red and the other is light blue. If you look at the image below with these special glasses, you’ll see the 3-D effect.
A.This is why most IMAX films are only about 40—60 minutes long.
B.You can also stand up if you like.
C.This is repeated at least 12 times to make one second of film!
D.You don’t look at a screen in front of you.
E.To watch 3-D films, you must wear special glasses.

Passage 5(2024·湖南娄底·一模)How to Improve Your Reading
Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey. Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests. If you want to improve your reading in English, the followings are just for you!
Choose right reading materials (材料) .
There are so many choices! There are textbooks and graded readers, but there are also a lot more books you can read. 89 Here is a good rule to follow: choose reading materials where you understand at least 80% of the content (内容) .
Be intentional (意图明确的) .
Being intentional means doing something on purpose with a reason in mind. With reading, you need to be intentional by setting a reading aim. Decide on a certain number of pages you want to read each day. 90 To make sure your daily practice gets done, spare some time and put it in your study plan!
91
Reading can both introduce you to new/vocabulary (词汇) and teach you how to use them. Many words in English are often used together in a consistent (相互连贯的) way. Reading groups of words, or words that go together, will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.
Don’t try to understand everything.
As you’re practicing your reading, you need to accept the fact that you might not understand every single word, and that’s OK! Your brain can’t learn so many new things at one time. It’s more important to get the big picture of what you are reading. 92
A.Read word groups.
B.You mustn’t read word by word.
C.Don’t choose a book that is too easy or too difficult.
D.You could also be intentional with planning a time to read.
E.And you can go back to check the new things you don’t understand later.

Passage 6(2024·湖南邵阳·一模)
Giving directions in different places
If you ask people of different countries “Could you tell me the way to the post office?”, you will get different answers.
In Japan, people use landmarks (路标) instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. 57 The post office is across from the bus stop.
In Kansas, America, there are no towns or buildings within (在……之内) miles. So instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. For example, people will say, “Go north two miles (英里). 58 ”
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions. They will often say, “Follow me.” Sometimes if a person doesn’t know the answer to your question, he or she, like a New Yorker, might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” 59 They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. A visitor can often get lost in Yucatan!
60 You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually point to the correct direction. Go on in that direction and you may find the post office!
A.Turn east, and then go another mile.
B.But one thing will help you everywhere.
C.People there think “I don’t know.” is not polite.
D.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.
E.Then he or she will take you through the streets of the city to the post office.

They’re looking forward to bringing themselves good luck for this whole month. In North America, a rabbit’s foot is one symbol of good luck. Many actors and actresses bring a rabbit’s foot with them and kiss the foot before the performance. In some parts of Northern Europe, it is common to give a child a white rabbit as a gift. 64

The Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms, with Awakening of Insects(惊蛰) being the third. It falls on March 5 and lasts until March 19 this year. In ancient Chinese stories, when the loud spring thunder cracks (破裂) the sky, it wakes up the sleeping insects. 1
This time marks the start of spring and brings a rise in temperature and rainfall. 2 The warm weather and rainfall also make the earth come alive again. There is more rain and sunlight, which are great for farming. Farmers say, “Once the Awakening of Insects comes, spring plowing never rests. “Chinese people in ancient times observed that in the first five days, peach blossoms bloomed, in the second five days, black-naped oriole (仓庚) birds started singing, and in the third, eagles hid but pigeons and doves appeared.
3 One popular one is eating pears. Some believe pears help cool the body, especially when the weather gets hot.

What comes to mind when you hear the word “instrument”? The violin, piano or guitar? However, we all have an instrument that we are born with-our voices.
My school choral (合唱的) program started a cappella group (无伴奏合唱团). 33 The beats and other parts of music, which are usually taken up by instruments like drums, piano, or guitar, are all made by the human voice. The group has been made up of many musically talented students every year. 34 However, not all people see choral music in a good way. Some may think that singers are people who are not able to play a real “instrument”. 35 Singers in the cappella group spend just as much time on their voices and have also achieved great success. My school’s Honors cappella group is famous across the state. They perform in cities around the nation every year. It holds its own concerts, wins national competitions, and even brings out its own music albums (专辑). Each singer in the group is unique in their own way, with some having amazing singing abilities, others doing cool beatboxing (节奏口技), and some even making up their own songs.
36 And our voices are the most enjoyable instrument there is.
A.Many students interview for this popular group, hoping to become the school’s next rising star.
B.But that is far from the truth.
C.Music is a form of art in which all types of instruments can join in.
D.This is a special musical group that produces songs simply with their voices, with no other instrument required!
E.Singing groups give students the opportunities to shine.

How do you usually decide where to go on vacation? Will you decide where to travel because of the local landmarks (地标)? 49 Recently, a new way of travelling—“food tourism” has become popular.
“Food tourism” means that people travel to new places to try the local food. 50 For example, you can try street food, visit food markets, or eat at local restaurants. And a 2023 survey from Hello Fresh found that 74% of Americans who have travelled in the last five years went for the food. The top four countries that Americans said they want to visit for their food are Italy, France, Spain and Japan.
51 A 2022 survey by Eurostar asked 2,000 people in Britain what their main reason was for choosing where to go on vacation. 61% of people said “the food” and 41% of people said they would travel hundreds of kilometers to find the perfect meal. Some people even like to take part in the cooking themselves. 46% of people said they have taken part in cooking lessons when travelling.
The survey also found that British people like to try new and different foods when they are travelling. Nearly half of people believe that they are more adventurous (大胆的) with what they eat when they are away from home. 52 Another survey from 2023 said that Italy, Spain and France are the top three European countries that they’d like to choose.

Passage 3(2024·辽宁沈阳·一模)
Most people love animals. Many children’s books and TV shows use animals as the main characters. Probably many people who you know care for animals as pets. 29
In the past, zoos were usually started by rich rulers. The first zoo was started by a queen in Egypt in 1500 BC.She collected the animals from Africa. Collecting animals was a way for a ruler to show off his or her wealth and power. 30 Sadly, the animals in the early zoos and animal shows were not treated well. Often they were not given much food to eat. Sometimes they were hit.
These days, zoos are still for entertainment, but they also try to protect animals and teach people as well. 31 People must provide animals with a clean place to live, food and water; and health care. In this way, the rules help protect the animals.
32 They want to do more to protect the animals they love. For example, people were against the use of killer whales in shows at Sea World. Many people thought the big killer whales did not have enough space in the park’s small pools. They also thought that the animals were treated badly. With so many people against them, Sea World decided to end all killer whale shows.
When people try to protect animals while enjoying them at the same time, the animals and people can both benefit.
A.They often break the rules.
B.Some people think the rules are not enough.
C.Animal shows started much later in the 1800s.
D.In addition, both zoos and animal shows must follow rules.
E.The love for animals may be why both children and adults enjoy going to zoos and animal shows.
Passage 4(2024·湖南株洲·一模)
Do you like watching films? Today let’s know about some special films.
Animation (动画片)
Animation is one of the oldest special kinds in the film world. It began in the early 1900s. It is not difficult but it does take a lot of time and hard work.
First, someone paints or draws a picture. Then they take a picture of it. They make another picture, which is just a little bit different from the first one, and take another picture. 17
Animated films of any kind take a lot of time to make, but in the end, these special films are touching, funny or simply amazing.
IMAX films
IMAX is short for “Image Maximum (巨幕电影)”. When you watch an IMAX film, you don’t sit up—you lie back. 18 The screen is above, in front of and around you.
In order to create its effects, IMAX films use different theatres, cameras and film from other movies. Most IMAX theatres are in museums, science centers and theme (主题) parks. The IMAX camera is very large and uses a lot of film. It is also very heavy. 19
3-D films
3-D films are not new. They first appeared in 1903. The inventors wanted viewers to feel like they were really inside the movie they were watching! When you watch a 3-D movie, you feel as if the people on the screen are close enough to touch and that the airplane flying at you is flying right off the screen.
20 Usually, one side of the glasses is red and the other is light blue. If you look at the image below with these special glasses, you’ll see the 3-D effect.
A.This is why most IMAX films are only about 40—60 minutes long.
B.You can also stand up if you like.
C.This is repeated at least 12 times to make one second of film!
D.You don’t look at a screen in front of you.
E.To watch 3-D films, you must wear special glasses.
Passage 5(2024·湖南娄底·一模)
How to Improve Your Reading
Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey. Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests. If you want to improve your reading in English, the followings are just for you!
Choose right reading materials (材料) .
There are so many choices! There are textbooks and graded readers, but there are also a lot more books you can read. 89 Here is a good rule to follow: choose reading materials where you understand at least 80% of the content (内容) .
Be intentional (意图明确的) .
Being intentional means doing something on purpose with a reason in mind. With reading, you need to be intentional by setting a reading aim. Decide on a certain number of pages you want to read each day. 90 To make sure your daily practice gets done, spare some time and put it in your study plan!
91
Reading can both introduce you to new/vocabulary (词汇) and teach you how to use them. Many words in English are often used together in a consistent (相互连贯的) way. Reading groups of words, or words that go together, will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.
Don’t try to understand everything.
As you’re practicing your reading, you need to accept the fact that you might not understand every single word, and that’s OK! Your brain can’t learn so many new things at one time. It’s more important to get the big picture of what you are reading. 92
A.Read word groups.
B.You mustn’t read word by word.
C.Don’t choose a book that is too easy or too difficult.
D.You could also be intentional with planning a time to read.
E.And you can go back to check the new things you don’t understand later.
Passage 6(2024·湖南邵阳·一模)
Giving directions in different places
If you ask people of different countries “Could you tell me the way to the post office?”, you will get different answers.
In Japan, people use landmarks (路标) instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. 57 The post office is across from the bus stop.
In Kansas, America, there are no towns or buildings within (在……之内) miles. So instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. For example, people will say, “Go north two miles (英里). 58 ”
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions. They will often say, “Follow me.” Sometimes if a person doesn’t know the answer to your question, he or she, like a New Yorker, might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” 59 They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. A visitor can often get lost in Yucatan!
60 You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually point to the correct direction. Go on in that direction and you may find the post office!
A.Turn east, and then go another mile.
B.But one thing will help you everywhere.
C.People there think “I don’t know.” is not polite.
D.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.
E.Then he or she will take you through the streets of the city to the post office.
Passage 7(2024·湖南娄底·一模)
In the Chinese Zodiac (生肖) culture there is a twelve-year cycle. Each year is represented (代表) by an animal. 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit! Rabbits are gentle and smart. 61
In Chinese tradition there is a Moon Goddess named Chang’e. She lives on the moon with her rabbit. 62 Besides, rabbits can have many babies in the nature. In the past, people thought the more children they had, the better their life would be.
63 There are some traditions about how to gain the rabbit’s good luck for people. For example, in the UK, people usually say the word “rabbit” three times on the first morning of every month. They’re looking forward to bringing themselves good luck for this whole month. In North America, a rabbit’s foot is one symbol of good luck. Many actors and actresses bring a rabbit’s foot with them and kiss the foot before the performance. In some parts of Northern Europe, it is common to give a child a white rabbit as a gift. 64
Rabbits in different countries are often considered as a symbol of good luck and wealth. No matter where you are, wish you a lucky and wealthy life in the Year of the Rabbit!
A.Rabbits are also seen to be lucky in Western culture.
B.They are very popular with people from all over the world.
C.Rabbits are very lovely animal and most people like them.
D.It’s called the Moon Rabbit and helps Chang’e to make medicine.

What comes to mind when you hear the word “instrument”? The violin, piano or guitar? However, we all have an instrument that we are born with-our voices.
My school choral (合唱的) program started a cappella group (无伴奏合唱团). 33 The beats and other parts of music, which are usually taken up by instruments like drums, piano, or guitar, are all made by the human voice. The group has been made up of many musically talented students every year. 34 However, not all people see choral music in a good way. Some may think that singers are people who are not able to play a real “instrument”. 35 Singers in the cappella group spend just as much time on their voices and have also achieved great success. My school’s Honors cappella group is famous across the state. They perform in cities around the nation every year. It holds its own concerts, wins national competitions, and even brings out its own music albums (专辑). Each singer in the group is unique in their own way, with some having amazing singing abilities, others doing cool beatboxing (节奏口技), and some even making up their own songs.
36 And our voices are the most enjoyable instrument there is.
A.Many students interview for this popular group, hoping to become the school’s next rising star.
B.But that is far from the truth.
C.Music is a form of art in which all types of instruments can join in.
D.This is a special musical group that produces songs simply with their voices, with no other instrument required!
E.Singing groups give students the opportunities to shine.

Passage 3(2024·辽宁沈阳·一模)
Most people love animals. Many children’s books and TV shows use animals as the main characters. Probably many people who you know care for animals as pets. 29
In the past, zoos were usually started by rich rulers. The first zoo was started by a queen in Egypt in 1500 BC.She collected the animals from Africa. Collecting animals was a way for a ruler to show off his or her wealth and power. 30 Sadly, the animals in the early zoos and animal shows were not treated well. Often they were not given much food to eat. Sometimes they were hit.
These days, zoos are still for entertainment, but they also try to protect animals and teach people as well. 31 People must provide animals with a clean place to live, food and water; and health care. In this way, the rules help protect the animals.
32 They want to do more to protect the animals they love. For example, people were against the use of killer whales in shows at Sea World. Many people thought the big killer whales did not have enough space in the park’s small pools. They also thought that the animals were treated badly. With so many people against them, Sea World decided to end all killer whale shows.
When people try to protect animals while enjoying them at the same time, the animals and people can both benefit.
A.They often break the rules.
B.Some people think the rules are not enough.
C.Animal shows started much later in the 1800s.
D.In addition, both zoos and animal shows must follow rules.

Passage 4(2024·湖南株洲·一模)
Do you like watching films? Today let’s know about some special films.
Animation (动画片)
Animation is one of the oldest special kinds in the film world. It began in the early 1900s. It is not difficult but it does take a lot of time and hard work.
First, someone paints or draws a picture. Then they take a picture of it. They make another picture, which is just a little bit different from the first one, and take another picture. 17
Animated films of any kind take a lot of time to make, but in the end, these special films are touching, funny or simply amazing.
IMAX films
IMAX is short for “Image Maximum (巨幕电影)”. When you watch an IMAX film, you don’t sit up—you lie back. 18 The screen is above, in front of and around you.
In order to create its effects, IMAX films use different theatres, cameras and film from other movies. Most IMAX theatres are in museums, science centers and theme (主题) parks. The IMAX camera is very large and uses a lot of film. It is also very heavy. 19
3-D films
3-D films are not new. They first appeared in 1903. The inventors wanted viewers to feel like they were really inside the movie they were watching! When you watch a 3-D movie, you feel as if the people on the screen are close enough to touch and that the airplane flying at you is flying right off the screen.
20 Usually, one side of the glasses is red and the other is light blue. If you look at the image below with these special glasses, you’ll see the 3-D effect.
A.This is why most IMAX films are only about 40—60 minutes long.
B.You can also stand up if you like.
C.This is repeated at least 12 times to make one second of film!
D.You don’t look at a screen in front of you.
E.To watch 3-D films, you must wear special glasses.

Passage 5(2024·湖南娄底·一模)
How to Improve Your Reading
Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey. Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests. If you want to improve your reading in English, the followings are just for you!
Choose right reading materials (材料) .
There are so many choices! There are textbooks and graded readers, but there are also a lot more books you can read. 89 Here is a good rule to follow: choose reading materials where you understand at least 80% of the content (内容) .
Be intentional (意图明确的) .
Being intentional means doing something on purpose with a reason in mind. With reading, you need to be intentional by setting a reading aim. Decide on a certain number of pages you want to read each day. 90 To make sure your daily practice gets done, spare some time and put it in your study plan!
91
Reading can both introduce you to new/vocabulary (词汇) and teach you how to use them. Many words in English are often used together in a consistent (相互连贯的) way. Reading groups of words, or words that go together, will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.
Don’t try to understand everything.
As you’re practicing your reading, you need to accept the fact that you might not understand every single word, and that’s OK! Your brain can’t learn so many new things at one time. It’s more important to get the big picture of what you are reading. 92
A.Read word groups.
B.You mustn’t read word by word.
C.Don’t choose a book that is too easy or too difficult.
D.You could also be intentional with planning a time to read.
E.And you can go back to check the new things you don’t understand later.

Passage 6(2024·湖南邵阳·一模)
Giving directions in different places
If you ask people of different countries “Could you tell me the way to the post office?”, you will get different answers.
In Japan, people use landmarks (路标) instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. 57 The post office is across from the bus stop.
In Kansas, America, there are no towns or buildings within (在……之内) miles. So instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. For example, people will say, “Go north two miles (英里). 58 ”
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions. They will often say, “Follow me.” Sometimes if a person doesn’t know the answer to your question, he or she, like a New Yorker, might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” 59 They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. A visitor can often get lost in Yucatan!
60 You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his or her body language. He or she will usually point to the correct direction. Go on in that direction and you may find the post office!
A.Turn east, and then go another mile.
B.But one thing will help you everywhere.
C.People there think “I don’t know.” is not polite.
D.Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market.
E.Then he or she will take you through the streets of the city to the post office.
