Leilani Hatton is a five-year-old girl from England. She took a family trip to Disney World in Florida, the US, but came home without her favourite teddy bear. Recently she was reunited with Jofli, the teddy bear. “Mickey Mouse”, 4,200 miles away, found and posted him back.
Leilani takes Jofli with her everywhere. The family have got photos of her with Jofli and all the Disney characters.

However, something surprising happened. The family got an email. It said Jofli had been found, and he would arrive a few days later. Disney workers found the little brown bear and posted him to Leilani’s home.
About two weeks later, a package arrived. The family let Leilani open the package—Jofli was in it, safe and sound. “The teddy bear has always been important to her, so she was over the moon. She even wrote a thank-you note to Mickey Mouse,” Cullen said. “Disney World is large, and there must be a lot of lost things. So it was so nice of it to go out of its way and make sure he returned home.”

There’s a new sport at this year’s Paris Olympics: breaking. It combines (结合) dancing and acrobatics (特技表演). To win the gold, breakers will move around, turn over, and shuffle (鬼步) to hip-hop music. What do you need to know about the sport? Here it is.
Why is it called breaking?
Breaking, a form of street dance, came from the street of New York City in the 1970s. During musical “breaks (间歇)”, dancers got up to dance, and this gave breaking its name.
Who can be a breaker?
Anyone can be a B-girl or a B-boy. Breaking is amazing because it’s an important part of hip-hop culture, and in hip-hop culture, it doesn’t matter (重要) who you are or where you’re from. It’s all about peace, love, and having fun.
How do breakers talk?
Breakers have their own language to describe their dance style. A “top rock” is when a breaker dances while standing up. A “down rock” is when a breaker dances on the floor, moving their arms and kicking their legs. A “freeze” is when a dancer stops in the middle of their dance in a difficult movement.
Why should you start breaking?
Being a breaker might seem scary at first, but as you get better at each move, you start feeling really good about yourself. It’s amazing to see others do great moves, but when you’re the one getting cheers (喝彩), it feels even better. As you keep dancing and impressing people, you start believing more in yourself. You know that if you work hard and practice, you can do amazing things.
8. Where did breaking come from?
A. Tokyo. B. New York. C. Sydney. D. Beijing.
9. According to the text, what is important in hip-hop culture?
A. Peace, love and having fun. B. Being the best.
C. Showing off skills. D. Music and dancers.
10. Which of the following can be called a “down rock”?
A. B. C. D.
11. Why does the writer write this passage?
A. To teach people how to be a good breaker. B. To promote (推广) hip-hop music.
C. To introduce a new Olympic sport—breaking. D. To talk about the history of breaking.
D
Are you interested in travelling? Do you want to travel around the world? Lexie Alford, from California, America, finished travelling to every country in the world at the age of 21.
Lexie Alford comes from a travelling family. Her mother began her own travel business at a young age, and always took Lexie with her on all her travels. By the time she was only 18 years old, Lexie had already visited 70 countries. That made her want to visit the rest of the world. In October 2017, Lexie began a trip to visit all 195 countries in the world. Two years later, she finally finished it.
Lexie used planes, boats and trains to get around. But she liked to travel by train best. “Travelling on trains is slow travel. I can watch the changing views from the window,” she said.
For Lexie, there’s nothing better than travelling. Even in the hard times, she never thought of giving up. “I’m lucky I made it at last. I felt tired, but it was still an exciting trip. I experienced nothing but love and kindness from the people I met in each and every country,” she said. “And I learned a lot about the world. The world would be so boring if everything was the same everywhere. The differences make discovering new cultures such a beautiful experience.”
Lexie hopes others, especially women and young people, can go out and see the world. Her biggest goal is to encourage others to push their limits (极限), no matter how big or small they may be. We live in such a big and beautiful world. Why not spend some time travelling just like Lexie?
12. How does the writer start the text?
A. By telling a story. B. By giving an example.
C. By listing numbers. D. By asking questions.
13. When did Lexie finish the travel to all countries in the world?
A. In 2017. B. In 2019. C. In 2021. D. In 2024.
14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. What Lexie saw during the trip. B. What Lexie thought of traveling.
C. What Lexie learned about the world. D. What Lexie hopes to do in the future.
15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A B. C. D.

Are you interested in travelling? Do you want to travel around the world? Lexie Alford, from California, America, finished travelling to every country in the world at the age of 21.
Lexie Alford comes from a travelling family. Her mother began her own travel business at a young age, and always took Lexie with her on all her travels. By the time she was only 18 years old, Lexie had already visited 70 countries. That made her want to visit the rest of the world. In October 2017, Lexie began a trip to visit all 195 countries in the world. Two years later, she finally finished it.
Lexie used planes, boats and trains to get around. But she liked to travel by train best. “Travelling on trains is slow travel. I can watch the changing views from the window,” she said.
For Lexie, there’s nothing better than travelling. Even in the hard times, she never thought of giving up. “I’m lucky I made it at last. I felt tired, but it was still an exciting trip. I experienced nothing but love and kindness from the people I met in each and every country,” she said. “And I learned a lot about the world. The world would be so boring if everything was the same everywhere. The differences make discovering new cultures such a beautiful experience.”
Lexie hopes others, especially women and young people, can go out and see the world. Her biggest goal is to encourage others to push their limits (极限), no matter how big or small they may be. We live in such a big and beautiful world. Why not spend some time travelling just like Lexie?
12. How does the writer start the text?
A. By telling a story. B. By giving an example.
C. By listing numbers. D. By asking questions.
13. When did Lexie finish the travel to all countries in the world?
A. In 2017. B. In 2019. C. In 2021. D. In 2024.
14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

C. What Lexie learned about the world. D. What Lexie hopes to do in the future.
15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C
【解析】

【14题详解】
主旨大意题。通读第四段可知,第四段主要讲述了Lexie对旅行的感受和看法,例如她认为旅行是最好的事情,即使在困难时期也从未放弃,以及她通过旅行感受到的爱与善意。因此,这一段主要围绕Lexie对旅行的思考展开。故选B。
