In fact, it’s common for anyone who travels far and goes into a different culture. Neil lives in Toronto, Canada. Last summer, his English friend Vic and Esther came to visit him.

The bill (账单) was almost $200 and in Canada, it’s normal to leave a 15% tip. The waiter looked upset—he must have thought Vic was unhappy about his service.

Our feet had grown. It was time for a quick stop at the dancewear store. “Didn’t I just buy you shoes two months ago?” Mom said as she walked into our room. She emptied out our drawers in search of footwear. And guess what she found! In the drawers were countless bags of old dancing shoes and more than 100 costumes (演出服) from our years of performances. We sat in our room and thought about what to do with them. Then, Donate2Dance was born. Yes, donate, we wanted to donate!

We were lucky enough to have been able to take lessons from really great teachers. We were lucky to be in a family that could buy new shoes and dancewear whenever we needed them.

Many people, including some famous dancers, have joined us. Every day, we come home and see boxes of donations from warm-hearted dancers.

This led to a heated discussion. Examples like South Korea’s “no-kids areas” and reminders for parents on high-speed trains show how the public reacts to crying children. How do you feel about strangers “educating” noisy young children? I don’t think it’s OK for strangers to educate the children of others’. Sometimes, children can be out of control and might shout in public. From the child’s point of view, a stranger dealing with them and shouting at them can be scary. It can also hurt children’s feelings. Parents can also feel stressed when their children cause trouble, but they might not know what to do. So as strangers, it’s best to kindly remind parents to look after their kids and check if they are hungry or unwell. Cui Luoyao,14, Beijing Instead of strangers, parents should be the ones teaching their children how to behave (行为) properly. I believe many passengers “dislike children” not because of the children’s behavior, but because they really can’t stand what their parents do in that situation. If a child really does something that makes others uncomfortable, then the parents should say sorry and solve the problem immediately. He Liyan, 14, Jiangsu Though we may be strangers, we should help teach noisy and crying children. Children are an important part of human society and need attention and care. By offering support and guidance, we can make society better for everyone. Helping kids learn how to get along with others and behave properly in public is necessary for them to fit in well with others. However, shouting or beating is never OK. Staying calm and patient when communicating with children sets a good example for them to follow. Zhang Kexin, 15, Beijing 1．What might be the topic of this discussion? A．Is it proper for strangers to educate others’ kids? B．Will you get angry with the noisy kids in public? C．How can we educate others’ kids? 2．In Cui luoyao’s opinion, what should strangers do when meeting noisy kids? A．Shout at them. B．Keep silent. C．Help parents with the trouble. 3．What does He Liyan think the main reason for the unhappiness? A．Kids’ habits. B．Strangers’ background. C．Parents’ performance. 4．What kind of words may Zhang Kexin advise strangers to say? A．“Shut up, kids! If you keep making noise, I’ll give you a lesson.” B．“Excuse me, could you please keep quiet. Look, other people are resting.” C．“What’s wrong with you? Who’s your parent?” 5．What does the underlined word “that” refer to? A．The strangers are educating the kids. B．The parents are away from the kids. C．The kids are making trouble without control. （24-25九年级上·四川成都·阶段练习）Most of my memories about my childhood have been washed away with time. However, I remember each Halloween clearly. I remember every costume (服装) I wore and every person. I trick-or-treated with. As a child, Halloween was never just a one-night festival. It was a month-long event. We carved pumpkins (雕刻南瓜), decorated (装饰) our house and made costumes. When Oct. 31 finally came around, we spent the afternoon together as we waited for the time to trick-or-treat. And each Halloween night ended with us sitting on the floor counting candy. Whoever got the most candy was the “winner”. As I got older, Halloween appeared in a different shape. I used to meet my friends several times throughout the fall to carve pumpkins, but we had lost our patience. As school kept us busy, we usually couldn’t celebrate the day. Instead, my friends and I always got together at someone’s house to eat candy and watch movies on the weekend before. Last year, I helped my 6-year-old sister dress up and go out with her friends to fill her own bag with candy. Seeing crowds of children walking hand in hand with their closest friends. I seemed to see myself 10 years ago. It upset me to know that so many kids would lose such a beautiful part of their childhood in the near future. 1．Why does the writer talk about her each Halloween activity in Paragraph 2?

I had a kind of attention disorder, which means I couldn’t direct my attention to what I was doing. So when everyone else in the class was centering their attention on tasks, I could not. In my first reading class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all finished in 45 minutes. I immediately put up my hand and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to finish the task.” She looked down at me through her glasses, saying, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.” With her encouragement, I tried. But I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home. In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He Lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind. Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? With thoughts running through my head, I found myself deeply attracted in reading and writing. I completed the task in less than 40 minutes. I realized that I was not different from others. I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problem, why should I ever give up? I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words, “See what you can do when you keep trying?” 1．Why was school difficult for the writer? A．Because he didn’t like the teacher.

The more time you have for your destination (目的地), the easier it is to experience it more deeply. When I was in India in 2012, I stayed with a local family. During that time, I kept hearing some loud, regular chant. I asked about it on the first day and was told that it was a call to prayer (祈祷). Yes, that was what I had thought. But I didn’t realize the chant was actually the doorbell until the fourth day! If I had been traveling faster, if I had left on day three, I wouldn’t have held a completely different understanding of the chant in my mind. Going to the movies when traveling is not something that is typically on a travel plan unless one is traveling slowly. During a three-week stay in Italy, I went to Cinetecadi Bologna, which showed international films. There I met Linda and Rosie, both Americans. Linda’s husband Gabe, a local, was also there. We watched the movie together. After the film, they invited me to dinner at a local restaurant, Gabe’s favorite. At the restaurant, no menu was offered. Instead, after some conversation with a waiter, our meals were decided. Their kindness gave me a chance to go where tourists never go and to experience one of the locals’ favorite restaurants. If you also want to try slow travel, the following may be helpful. ●Travel in the off-season. Visit your destination without a lot of tourists in the way. Some tourist sights are not open, but you may find more of the local culture. ●Stay where the locals live, which helps you enter the local life quickly. ●Shop at markets and small stores where you can find local products. 1．What is slow travel according to the passage? A．Getting used to the different local cultures. B．Going to the tourist sights to experience different cultures. C．Spending more time experiencing the cultural differences of your destination. 2．What do we know from the writer’s experience in India?

Linganore is no exception (例外), and this year the class of 2023 certainly lived up to your expectations. Like many senior pranks, there were many different ideas, one of which was to take every desk and chair out of classes and put them in the stadium. Fortunately for Linganore teachers, this concept was not put into action; instead, the students stuck with the classic method of throwing paper on anything and everything. Next, some seniors used balloons to totally fill the stairs on Main Street closest to the front entrance. Many seniors parked in the worst ways possible throughout the parking lots. Cole Simmonds arrived at school before much of the chaos started. Along with witnessing seniors throw paper on trees, Simmonds’car was a victim of the prank when it was attacked with water balloons. In addition to being annoyed by the water balloons, Simmonds was also unhappy with the lack of originality from the seniors. The last part of the seniors’ final day included a Slip & Slide placed at the top of the hill behind the school that went down to the lower parking lot. To prevent injury, a teacher supervised the seniors’ Slip & Slide to ensure safety. The goals of the Slip Slide were not only to make the seniors’ last day something to remember but to encourage students to participate in fun activities permitted by the school. Although not as humorous or creative as some believed it could have been, the Slip & Slide and balloons in the stairs were very impressive and were good aspects of this year’s prank. Hopefully, the class of 2024 will do something that not only avoids annoying people but is also funny. 1．What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A．Different pranks the seniors did.

Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3.

At that time, only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime. Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I’m with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.” He also taught us that thinking is very important in study, “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled. All thinking but no study makes people lazy.” Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society.

Both of us were asking our mom for new dancing shoes. Our feet had grown. It was time for a quick stop at the dancewear store. “Didn’t I just buy you shoes two months ago?” Mom said as she walked into our room. She emptied out our drawers in search of footwear. And guess what she found! In the drawers were countless bags of old dancing shoes and more than 100 costumes (演出服) from our years of performances.

This led to a heated discussion. Examples like South Korea’s “no-kids areas” and reminders for parents on high-speed trains show how the public reacts to crying children. How do you feel about strangers “educating” noisy young children? I don’t think it’s OK for strangers to educate the children of others’. Sometimes, children can be out of control and might shout in public. From the child’s point of view, a stranger dealing with them and shouting at them can be scary. It can also hurt children’s feelings. Parents can also feel stressed when their children cause trouble, but they might not know what to do. So as strangers, it’s best to kindly remind parents to look after their kids and check if they are hungry or unwell. Cui Luoyao,14, Beijing Instead of strangers, parents should be the ones teaching their children how to behave (行为) properly. I believe many passengers “dislike children” not because of the children’s behavior, but because they really can’t stand what their parents do in that situation. If a child really does something that makes others uncomfortable, then the parents should say sorry and solve the problem immediately. He Liyan, 14, Jiangsu Though we may be strangers, we should help teach noisy and crying children. Children are an important part of human society and need attention and care. By offering support and guidance, we can make society better for everyone. Helping kids learn how to get along with others and behave properly in public is necessary for them to fit in well with others. However, shouting or beating is never OK. Staying calm and patient when communicating with children sets a good example for them to follow. Zhang Kexin, 15, Beijing 1．What might be the topic of this discussion? A．Is it proper for strangers to educate others’ kids? B．Will you get angry with the noisy kids in public? C．How can we educate others’ kids? 2．In Cui luoyao’s opinion, what should strangers do when meeting noisy kids? A．Shout at them. B．Keep silent. C．Help parents with the trouble. 3．What does He Liyan think the main reason for the unhappiness? A．Kids’ habits. B．Strangers’ background. C．Parents’ performance. 4．What kind of words may Zhang Kexin advise strangers to say? A．“Shut up, kids! If you keep making noise, I’ll give you a lesson.” B．“Excuse me, could you please keep quiet. Look, other people are resting.” C．“What’s wrong with you? Who’s your parent?” 5．What does the underlined word “that” refer to? A．The strangers are educating the kids. B．The parents are away from the kids. C．The kids are making trouble without control. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．C 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了陌生人应该怎样对待吵闹的孩子。 1．主旨大意题。根据第一段“How do you feel about strangers “educating” noisy young children?”及通读全文可知，主要讲述了陌生人应该怎样对待吵闹的孩子，故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第一段“So as strangers, it’s best to kindly remind parents to look after their kids and check if they are hungry or unwell.”可知，崔洛瑶的建议是：陌生人应该提醒父母检查他们孩子的情况。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“I believe many passengers “dislike children” not because of the children’s behavior, but because they really can’t stand what their parents do in that situation.”可知，李艳觉得不开心的主要原因是父母的行为。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“Staying calm and patient when communicating with children sets a good example for them to follow.”可知，张可欣的做法是比较沉着冷静及有耐心的，选项B“对不起，你能保持安静吗？”看，其他人都在休息。”符合语境。故选B。 5．词句猜测题。根据下文“If a child really does something that makes others uncomfortable, then the parents should say sorry and solve the problem immediately.”可知，此处“that”指的是孩子们在无理取闹的行为。故选C。 （24-25九年级上·四川成都·阶段练习）Most of my memories about my childhood have been washed away with time. However, I remember each Halloween clearly. I remember every costume (服装) I wore and every person. I trick-or-treated with. As a child, Halloween was never just a one-night festival. It was a month-long event. We carved pumpkins (雕刻南瓜), decorated (装饰) our house and made costumes. When Oct. 31 finally came around, we spent the afternoon together as we waited for the time to trick-or-treat. And each Halloween night ended with us sitting on the floor counting candy. Whoever got the most candy was the “winner”. As I got older, Halloween appeared in a different shape. I used to meet my friends several times throughout the fall to carve pumpkins, but we had lost our patience. As school kept us busy, we usually couldn’t celebrate the day. Instead, my friends and I always got together at someone’s house to eat candy and watch movies on the weekend before. Last year, I helped my 6-year-old sister dress up and go out with her friends to fill her own bag with candy. Seeing crowds of children walking hand in hand with their closest friends. I seemed to see myself 10 years ago. It upset me to know that so many kids would lose such a beautiful part of their childhood in the near future. 1．Why does the writer talk about her each Halloween activity in Paragraph 2? A．To show the popularity of Halloween. B．To show her good memory of Halloween.

In my first reading class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all finished in 45 minutes. I immediately put up my hand and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to finish the task.” She looked down at me through her glasses, saying, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.” With her encouragement, I tried. But I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home. In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He Lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind. Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? With thoughts running through my head, I found myself deeply attracted in reading and writing. I completed the task in less than 40 minutes. I realized that I was not different from others. I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problem, why should I ever give up? I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day with an “A” on it.

When I was 20 years old, I finally made my dream come true. I came to China and learned from my master in the Wudang Mountains in 2010. Every day, I would wake up early and start my lessons. I would go for a run before breakfast and after dinner. Then I would practice qigong, which is a special kind of exercise that helps me feel calm and focused. After lunch, I would learn how to use a sword and how to fight. The training was hard and sometimes I wanted to stop it. But I kept going because I knew I can really get a lot from it and it was important to work hard because no one could succeed easily. Living in China and learning about Chinese culture were fun. I am really interested in Chinese culture, so while I was learning martial arts, I also learned about Taoism (道教). It teaches us how to achieve the peace of mind. I have grown so much since I started learning Wudang martial arts. It has taught me about physical moves and helped me become a better person. It was a valuable experience for me. I am thankful for all the lessons I have learned and all the friends I have made.

The more time you have for your destination (目的地), the easier it is to experience it more deeply. When I was in India in 2012, I stayed with a local family. During that time, I kept hearing some loud, regular chant. I asked about it on the first day and was told that it was a call to prayer (祈祷). Yes, that was what I had thought. But I didn’t realize the chant was actually the doorbell until the fourth day! If I had been traveling faster, if I had left on day three, I wouldn’t have held a completely different understanding of the chant in my mind. Going to the movies when traveling is not something that is typically on a travel plan unless one is traveling slowly. During a three-week stay in Italy, I went to Cinetecadi Bologna, which showed international films. There I met Linda and Rosie, both Americans. Linda’s husband Gabe, a local, was also there. We watched the movie together. After the film, they invited me to dinner at a local restaurant, Gabe’s favorite. At the restaurant, no menu was offered. Instead, after some conversation with a waiter, our meals were decided. Their kindness gave me a chance to go where tourists never go and to experience one of the locals’ favorite restaurants. If you also want to try slow travel, the following may be helpful. ●Travel in the off-season. Visit your destination without a lot of tourists in the way. Some tourist sights are not open, but you may find more of the local culture. ●Stay where the locals live, which helps you enter the local life quickly. ●Shop at markets and small stores where you can find local products. 1．What is slow travel according to the passage? A．Getting used to the different local cultures. B．Going to the tourist sights to experience different cultures. C．Spending more time experiencing the cultural differences of your destination. 2．What do we know from the writer’s experience in India? A．He had a good understanding of the chant before leaving India. B．He realized the chant was a call to prayer on the first day. C．He came to know the chant was the doorbell on the third day. 3．What does the writer think of his experience in Italy?

Doesn’t it look beautiful? It is in fact a silk carpet—a handwoven (手工编织的) one from the Jinshan Silk Carpet Factory in Shanghai. Cheng Meihua, now in her early seventies, is the director (厂长) of the factory. Her love for silk carpets started about half a century ago, when she was 20 years old.

Cheng turned out to be a talented silk weaver. Her very first piece of work was perfect. From then on, many more beautiful silk carpets came from her hands. Some of them are now in museums. But fully mastering this craft is no walk in the park. A world-class silk carpet can have thousands of colors. After all these years of hard work, Cheng can hardly close her left hand. Over the years, the factory has trained more than 1,000 skilled silk weavers. Their handmade carpets come in all shapes and sizes. Some, like “Hope”, have very creative designs (设计).

Linganore is no exception (例外), and this year the class of 2023 certainly lived up to your expectations. Like many senior pranks, there were many different ideas, one of which was to take every desk and chair out of classes and put them in the stadium. Fortunately for Linganore teachers, this concept was not put into action; instead, the students stuck with the classic method of throwing paper on anything and everything. Next, some seniors used balloons to totally fill the stairs on Main Street closest to the front entrance. Many seniors parked in the worst ways possible throughout the parking lots. Cole Simmonds arrived at school before much of the chaos started. Along with witnessing seniors throw paper on trees, Simmonds’car was a victim of the prank when it was attacked with water balloons. In addition to being annoyed by the water balloons, Simmonds was also unhappy with the lack of originality from the seniors. The last part of the seniors’ final day included a Slip & Slide placed at the top of the hill behind the school that went down to the lower parking lot. To prevent injury, a teacher supervised the seniors’ Slip & Slide to ensure safety. The goals of the Slip Slide were not only to make the seniors’ last day something to remember but to encourage students to participate in fun activities permitted by the school. Although not as humorous or creative as some believed it could have been, the Slip & Slide and balloons in the stairs were very impressive and were good aspects of this year’s prank. Hopefully, the class of 2024 will do something that not only avoids annoying people but is also funny. 1．What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A．Different pranks the seniors did. B．Side effects senior pranks bad. C．Traditional pranks in Linganore. D．Desired aims of senior pranks. 2．What is Simmonds’ attitude toward the senior prank this year? A．Worried. B．Displeased. C．Doubtful. D．Unconcerned 3．What does the underlined word “supervised” mean in paragraph 4? A．Took pride in. B．Entered for. C．Benefited from.

Many seniors parked in the worst ways possible throughout the parking lots.”可知，第二段主要介绍了高年级学生做了不同的恶作剧。故选A。 2．观点态度题。根据“In addition to being annoyed by the water balloons, Simmonds was also unhappy with the lack of originality from the seniors.”可知，除了对水球感到恼火之外，Simmonds对高年级学生缺乏独创性感到不满。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据“To prevent injury, a teacher supervised the seniors’ Slip & Slide to ensure safety.”可知，为了确保安全防止受伤，一名老师监督高年级学生的滑梯。故“supervised”与“Took charge of.”语义相近。故选D。 4．推理判断题。通读全文内容可知，本文讲述了Linganore高中高年级恶作剧的情况。故可推知，本文可能来自于学校网站。故选C。 （2024·四川成都·一模）James Holloway was a retired worker who decided to take up a hobby after his wife’s death.
