二、阅读理解(本题有20小题,每题2分,共40分)
A
In 1974, farmers digging a well in Xi’an, China, made an amazing discovery—thousands of life-sized terracotta soldiers buried underground. These statues were part of the tomb of China’s first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, who ruled over 2,000 years ago.
The terracotta army includes soldiers, horses, and chariots, each with unique facial expressions and details. Experts believe it took about 700,000 workers nearly 40 years to build this incredible underground army. The statues were meant to protect the emperor in the afterlife.
Today, the Terracotta Warriors are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of China’s most famous tourist attractions. Visitors can see three main pits filled with soldiers, though many statues remain unexcavated to protect their colors from fading. Scientists continue to study and restore the warriors using modern technology.
To preserve the site, visitors must follow rules: no touching the statues, no flash photography, and no loud noises. “These warriors have survived for centuries, and we must protect them for future generations,” says museum guide Zhang Lin.

B. Because they are too heavy to move
C. To save money for the museum
D. Because they are not important

A. Taking photos B. Touching the statues
C. Walking quietly D. Reading information boards

A Special Birthday Gift
It was my 14th birthday, and I was expecting the usual presents—books, clothes, or maybe a new phone. But when my parents handed me a small box with a red ribbon, I knew this gift was different.

After searching my room, I found a small box in my bookshelf. Inside was a beautiful necklace with a tiny silver compass. But the real surprise came when I opened the final note: “The greatest gift is the journey, not the destination. We love you.”

The Amazing World of Bees
Bees are among the most important insects on Earth. They not only produce honey but also play a vital role in pollinating plants. Without bees, many of the fruits and vegetables we eat would disappear.
A bee colony has three types of bees: the queen, workers, and drones. The queen is the only bee that lays eggs, while worker bees are females that do all the work, from collecting nectar to protecting the hive. Drones are male bees whose only job is to mate with the queen.
Bees communicate through a special “waggle dance” that tells other bees where to find flowers. They can also recognize human faces and remember them for days. Surprisingly, all worker bees are sisters, sharing the same mother—the queen bee.
Unfortunately, bee populations are declining worldwide due to pesticides, habitat loss, and climate change. Scientists warn that if bees disappear, it would seriously affect our food supply. Some ways to help bees include planting flowers, avoiding pesticides, and building small bee houses in gardens.
11. What is the main purpose of drones in a bee colony?
A. To collect nectar. B. To protect the hive.
C. To mate with the queen. D. To produce honey.
12. How do bees communicate the location of flowers?
A. By making special sounds. B. Through a “waggle dance”.
C. By leaving scent marks. D. By drawing maps.
13. What surprising ability do bees have?
A. They can count numbers.
B. They can recognize human faces.
C. They can predict weather.
D. They can change colors.
14. Why are bee populations decreasing?
A. Because of too many flowers.
B. Due to pesticides and habitat loss.
C. Because they don’t like humans.
D. Due to too much honey production.
15. How can people help bees according to the text?
A. By keeping them as pets.
B By planting flowers and avoiding pesticides.
C. By feeding them sugar water.
D. By moving them to cities.

____19____ If you want to exercise more, put your workout clothes next to your bed the night before. These small preparations make it easier to follow through with your plans.
Remember, the quality of our lives depends on the quality of our habits. ____20____ With patience and persistence, these small steps will lead to big changes.
A. Want to start running? Begin with just 5 minutes a day.

二、阅读理解(本题有20小题,每题2分,共40分)
A
In 1974, farmers digging a well in Xi’an, China, made an amazing discovery—thousands of life-sized terracotta soldiers buried underground. These statues were part of the tomb of China’s first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, who ruled over 2,000 years ago.
The terracotta army includes soldiers, horses, and chariots, each with unique facial expressions and details. Experts believe it took about 700,000 workers nearly 40 years to build this incredible underground army. The statues were meant to protect the emperor in the afterlife.
Today, the Terracotta Warriors are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of China’s most famous tourist attractions. Visitors can see three main pits filled with soldiers, though many statues remain unexcavated to protect their colors from fading. Scientists continue to study and restore the warriors using modern technology.
To preserve the site, visitors must follow rules: no touching the statues, no flash photography, and no loud noises. “These warriors have survived for centuries, and we must protect them for future generations,” says museum guide Zhang Lin.

A. In Beijing B. In Xi’an C. In Nanjing D. In Shanghai
2. How long did it take to build the terracotta army?
A. 10 years B. 20 years C. 30 years D. 40 years
3. Why are many statues still unexcavated?
A. To keep their colors from fading
B. Because they are too heavy to move
C To save money for the museum
D. Because they are not important
4. What is NOT allowed for visitors at the site?
A. Taking photos B. Touching the statues
C. Walking quietly D. Reading information boards
5 What is the main purpose of the terracotta army?
A. To attract tourists B. To protect the emperor in the afterlife
C. To show ancient art D. To train soldiers

A Special Birthday Gift
It was my 14th birthday, and I was expecting the usual presents—books, clothes, or maybe a new phone. But when my parents handed me a small box with a red ribbon, I knew this gift was different.
Inside was an old key and a handwritten note that read: “Follow the clues to find your real gift.” I felt both excited and confused. My father smiled and said, “Your mother and I prepared a treasure hunt for you.”
The first clue led me to our garden, where I found another note under my favorite tree. It said, “Where do we share stories every night?” I immediately knew it was the living room. There, behind a family photo, was the next clue: “Look where you keep your childhood memories.”
After searching my room, I found a small box in my bookshelf. Inside was a beautiful necklace with a tiny silver compass. But the real surprise came when I opened the final note: “The greatest gift is the journey, not the destination. We love you.”
That birthday taught me that the best presents aren’t things you can buy, but the time and love people put into making you happy.
6. What did the writer initially expect for their birthday?
A. A treasure hunt. B. Common presents like books or clothes.
C. A trip with parents. D. Nothing special.
7. Where was the first clue found?

C. In the garden. D. In the bookshelf.
8. What was the final gift?
A. A new phone. B. A silver compass necklace.
C. A red ribbon. D. A family photo.
9. What did the writer learn from this experience?
A. Money can’t buy happiness.
B. The best gifts show love and effort.
C. Parents know everything.
D. Treasure hunts are fun.
10. How did the writer feel when seeing the first gift box?
A. Disappointed. B. Excited and confused. C. Angry. D. Bored.

The Amazing World of Bees
Bees are among the most important insects on Earth. They not only produce honey but also play a vital role in pollinating plants. Without bees, many of the fruits and vegetables we eat would disappear.
A bee colony has three types of bees: the queen, workers, and drones. The queen is the only bee that lays eggs, while worker bees are females that do all the work, from collecting nectar to protecting the hive. Drones are male bees whose only job is to mate with the queen.
Bees communicate through a special “waggle dance” that tells other bees where to find flowers. They can also recognize human faces and remember them for days. Surprisingly, all worker bees are sisters, sharing the same mother—the queen bee.
Unfortunately, bee populations are declining worldwide due to pesticides, habitat loss, and climate change. Scientists warn that if bees disappear, it would seriously affect our food supply. Some ways to help bees include planting flowers, avoiding pesticides, and building small bee houses in gardens.
11. What is the main purpose of drones in a bee colony?
A. To collect nectar. B. To protect the hive.
C. To mate with the queen. D. To produce honey.
12. How do bees communicate the location of flowers?
A. By making special sounds. B. Through a “waggle dance”.
C. By leaving scent marks. D. By drawing maps.
13. What surprising ability do bees have?
A. They can count numbers.
B. They can recognize human faces.
C. They can predict weather.
D. They can change colors.
14. Why are bee populations decreasing?
A. Because of too many flowers.
B. Due to pesticides and habitat loss.
C. Because they don’t like humans.
D. Due to too much honey production.
15. How can people help bees according to the text?
A. By keeping them as pets.
B. By planting flowers and avoiding pesticides.
C. By feeding them sugar water.
D. By moving them to cities.
D
The Power of Small Habits
Many people want to make big changes in their lives, but often fail because they try to do too much at once. Research shows that small, consistent habits are actually the key to long-term success. _____16_____ For example, reading just 10 pages a day means you can finish about 12 books in a year.
