Indeed, many efforts have been made by different organizations, encouraging us to save the earth. These have certainly raised awareness of the environmental problems, and laws have been made by governments to reduce pollution. However, I don’t think people are doing enough to protect the environment. Every year about 9 million people die from pollution—related causes and that is 3 times more than deaths because of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. This number shows that many people pay little attention to the environment — in their daily lives. And there’re not enough actions to prevent the biodiversity (生物多样性) loss, climate change and pollution. What we need to do, is to first relook the way we live. For the past 2 years, I have been trying to protect the environment. Firstly, I am more careful with the use of electricity. I used to turn on all the lights when entering a room. Now I make it a point to open the curtains and let natural light in. If it gets dark, I turn on only one light and make sure to turn it off when leaving the room. This has worked wonders and my parents are pleased too, as it has cut our electricity bill by 50 percent. ① Besides energy protection I’ve formed the habit of bringing my own reusable bags wherever I go. This greatly reduces my need of plastic bags! Whenever I go shopping, I use my own reusable bags instead of plastic bags offered. It takes time and effort to wash up, but when I count the number of plastic bags that I would save with this small behavior, it’s well worth those extra minutes of my time. ② Finally, being a carnivore (食肉动物), I can never completely give up meat. Yet, after reading an article showing how a vegan (素食主义者) diet could cut global greenhouse emissions by about 70 percent, I decided to do something—be vegetarian once a week. ③ At a UN meeting in December 2018, where over 200 countries met to find 9 practical ways to reduce carbon, the most important reminder was that we are the last generation that can stop climate change. ④ 29. What does the underlined word “These” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. The importance of saying no to pollution. B. The awareness of protecting the environment. C. The efforts organizations have made to save the earth. D. The laws governments have made to reduce pollution. 30. What are Paragraph 3, Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. How the writer is careful with energy. B. How the writer protects the environment. C. What the writer does to save electricity. D. What the writer gets from his experience. 31. According to this passage, which of the following is true? A. Now all people around the world have done a lot to save the energy. B. In 2018 more than 200 countries met to find ways to reduce pollution. C. Every year AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria cause more deaths than pollution. D. For many years the writer has been caring about the environment in his daily life. 32. In which place of this passage can the sentence “If that is true, I hope to be able to say that I have done my part to protect the one place we all call home.” be put into? A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 【答案】29. C 30. B 31. B 32. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了气候变化和环境问题对人类生存的严重威胁，以及个人在环境保护方面可以采取的具体行动。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Indeed, many efforts have been made by different organizations, encouraging us to save the earth.”可知，“These”指代的是前面提到的各种组织为拯救地球所做的努力。故选C。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“For the past 2 years, I have been trying to protect the environment. Firstly…Besides energy protection…Finally, being a carnivore…”以及内容可知第三段讲述节约用电，第四段讲述使用可重复使用的袋子，第五段讲述减少肉类消费，这些都是作者保护环境的具体做法。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“At a UN meeting in December 2018, where over 200 countries met to find 9 practical ways to reduce carbon”可知2018年，200多个国家齐聚一堂，寻找减少污染的方法。故选B。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。这句话表达的是希望为保护地球尽一份力，与最后一段“the most important reminder was that we are the last generation that can stop climate change(最重要的提醒是，我们是能够阻止气候变化的最后一代人)” 相呼应，因此放在④处最合适。故选D。 C Technology has done our world wonders: from development in medicine to our daily lives. It has undoubtedly changed the way our society works, and how we communicate with one another and ourselves. However, by welcoming technology as part of life, are we losing our ability to create? Technology provides a new chance for creativity to exist (存在). Through technology, ideas can be set free and come to life. We have the necessary tools for greater possibilities and new solutions. For example, businesses now have the chance to improve themselves more creatively through websites, film advertisements, social media or radio. However, when we look more closely, it’s easy to notice some disadvantages. For example, many of us depend so much on automated calculations (计算器) rather than taking the time to work it out for ourselves. Another situation is that a lot of people are spending too much time on screens. As a result, they are reducing the chances to come up with their own creations. Is there a way to find a balance between technology and human creativity? I think so. It is simply a matter of making sure that creativity is not deterred by technology. The first way is to reduce our use of electronic products by setting limits on when, where, and how long we use them, turning off the notice on your phone. Once you become used to these, you will feel surprised how little you think about your phone. Another wonderful way is to take daily walks in nature. It can help you refresh and keep going. In the long run, a daily walk can not only influence our creativity and imagination but further our physical and mental health. We can also develop our creativity by doing yoga, keeping a diary, or reading. The actions you choose to take will help change the relationship between creativity and technology for the better. With the right balance, technology can be a good method of improving creativity. 33. Why does the writer ask the underlined question in the beginning? A. To draw the reader’s attention to the topic. B. To show the writer likes technology. C. To tell the reader the importance of technology. D. To prove creativity is more important. 34. The underlined word “deterred” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A. protected B. controlled C. attacked D. prevented 35. The structure of the passage may be ________. A. B. C. D. 36. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. limiting the use of our phones can help us develop creativity B. turning off the notice on the phone will make people worried C. spending time on screens is the easiest way to keep people happy D. a daily walk does more good to physical health than to mental health 【答案】33. A 34. D 35. D 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了科技和人类创造力的相互影响。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了科技的发展与人类创造力之间的关系，故划线部分“However, by welcoming technology as part of life, are we losing our ability to create?”主要用来引起读者对主题的关注。故选A。 【34题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Is there a way to find a balance between technology and human creativity? I think so. It is simply a matter of making sure that creativity is not deterred by technology.”可知，在技术和人类创造力之间找到平衡，确保创造力不被技术阻止，“deterred”意为“阻止”。故选D。 【35题详解】 篇章结构题。第一段引出话题，第二段强调技术对创造力的良好影响，第三段介绍一些缺点，第四、五段介绍如何在技术和人类创造力之间找到平衡，第六段总结。全文是总分总结构。故选D。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The first way is to reduce our use of electronic products by setting limits on when, where, and how long we use them, turning off the notice on your phone.”可知，限制手机的使用可以帮助我们发展创造力。故选A。 D Sean Elliot Martin and Pancho Timmons are friends on a mission (任务) to change the world, one small act of kindness at a time. That’s the subject of their new book, Quick and Easy World Change, which they published as an e-book. “The premise (前提) is that you don’t really need to be a superstar or have a lot of money to make the world a better place,” said Timmons, the founder (创始者) of two organizations-Pennsylvania Youth Initiative and Connect in Effect. The project is inspired (启发) by another kindness-related book Martin worked on years ago. The latest one takes pars of the first book and updates it with more inspiring stories and lists of little things people can do daily to spread goodness wherever they go. Just a little effort For example, the book gives readers ideas for good things to do in 60 seconds, with only $1 or without even leaving the house. People are encouraged to get creative, too. “Make a game of giving-you can give yourself points for different little things,” Martin said. It also mentions the concept of compound kindness-a domino (多米诺) effect of good deeds. “If you praise one person, they’re likely to praise two to five people,” Martin said. Paying it forward The e-book is their way to pay those experiences and ideas forward. For Timmons, a teacher’s compassion (同情) in college was a turning point for him. “I did all the things I was supposed to do-worked hard, studied hard-and ended up failing the exams,” he recalled. “But the professor pulled me aside and said, ‘You’re an A student turning in C and D work because you’re clearly dyslexic (诵读困难的) and not getting the help you need.’” “That 5-minute conversation was the difference between dropping out of college and getting two master’s degrees and now running two companies,” Timmons said. “I’ve spent my career trying to pay that forward.” 37. According to the passage,what can we know about Timmons? A He was pretty good at studying when in college. B. He was influenced by his college teacher’s words. C. He ran two companies when he was still a student. D. He enjoyed being praised by others in his school life. 38. How did Martin explain what“compound kindness”is? A. By solying a difficult problem. B. By telling an interesting story. C. By describing a possible situation. D. By making a detailed comparison (比较). 39. What is the correct order of the following events? ①Timmons continued studying to get two master’s degrees. ②Martin and Timmons worked together to published an e-book. ③Martin worked on his first kindness-related book by himself. ④What teacher said made a difference to Timmons’ study experience. A. ②③④① B. ④①③② C. ①③②④ D. ④③②① 40. What is the best title for the passage? A. True Friendship Lasts Long B. Every Minute Matters C. Good Education Works D. Good Deeds Make a Difference 【答案】37. B 38. C 39. B 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Sean Elliot Martin和Pancho Timmons两位朋友出版的新书《快速改变世界》，这本书的目的是通过每天做一些小事情来改变世界。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For Timmons, a teacher’s compassion (同情) in college was a turning point for him.”可知，老师用温暖的话对他产生积极影响。故选B。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It also mentions the concept of compound kindness-a domino (多米诺) effect of good deeds. ‘If you praise one person, they’re likely to praise two to five people,’ Martin said.”可知，此处是假设一种情况来说明复合善良的概念。故选C。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For Timmons, a teacher’s compassion (同情) in college was a turning point for him.”可知，先讲述老师的话对Timmons的学习经历产生了影响。根据“‘That 5-minute conversation was the difference between dropping out of college and getting two master’s degrees and now running two companies,’ Timmons said.”可知，接着Timmons继续学习，获得了两个硕士学位。即前两个顺序为④①。故选B。 【40题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了Sean Elliot Martin和Pancho Timmons两位朋友出版的新书《快速改变世界》，这本书的目的是通过每天做一些小事情来改变世界。D选项“善举改变世界”可作为本文最佳标题。故选D。 第二节 阅读下列短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整。其中有一项是多余的。 Most of us have learned the virtue (美德) of honesty from some stories. The story of Pinocchio teaches the importance of telling the truth to us. Every time Pinocchio lies, his nose grows longer. These types of stories show children that “honesty is the best”. ____41____ The fact is that people lie for many reasons. One reason people lie is to hide a mistake. While it is true that everyone does something wrong from time to time, some people do not have the courage to admit their mistakes because they are afraid that they will be blamed (责备). For example, students might lie to their teachers about unfinished homework. They might say that they left the homework at home. ____42____ These students do not want to get in trouble, so they make up an excuse. ____43____ Parents, particularly those with young children, may teach their children to use this type of “protective” lie in certain circumstances (状况). ____44____ Many parents teach their children to explain that their mother and father are too busy to come to the phone at that time. In this situation, a protective lie can mean greater safety. ____45____ Lying to keep the peace or to stay safe can have positive results. However, lying to stay out of trouble can lead to more trouble in the end. Understanding the motives behind the impulse (冲动) to lie might minimize this habit of lying. A. In fact, they did not do the homework at all. B. But why do so many people lie? C. People lie for many reasons, both good and bad. D. What should children do if a stranger calls while their parents are out? E. Another reason for lying has to do with self-protection. F. The protective lies are useful and necessary for children. 【答案】41. B 42. A 43. E 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了人们说谎的原因。了解说谎冲动背后的动机可能会减少这种说谎的习惯。 【41题详解】 根据“These types of stories show children that ‘honesty is the best’”和“The fact is that people lie for many reasons”可知，此处应询问人们为什么说谎。选项B“但为什么有那么多人撒谎呢？”符合语境。故选B。 【42题详解】 根据“For example, students might lie to their teachers about unfinished homework. They might say that they left the homework at home...These students do not want to get in trouble, so they make up an excuse”可知，学生可能会在未完成的作业上对老师撒谎。他们可能会说他们把作业忘在家里了。这些学生不想惹麻烦，所以他们编了一个借口，故此处内容应与作业相关。选项A“事实上，他们根本就没有做作业。”符合语境。故选A。 【43题详解】 根据“Parents, particularly those with young children, may teach their children to use this type of ‘protective’ lie in certain circumstances (状况)”可知，父母，特别是有小孩的父母，可能会教他们的孩子在某些情况下使用这种“保护性”谎言，故此处是说明说谎的原因之一是为了保护自己。选项E“说谎的另一个原因与自我保护有关。”符合语境。故选E。 【44题详解】 根据“Many parents teach their children to explain that their mother and father are too busy to come to the phone at that time. In this situation, a protective lie can mean greater safety”可知，许多父母教他们的孩子解释说，他们的父母太忙了，没有时间来接电话。在这种情况下，保护性的谎言意味着更大的安全，故此处内容应与接电话相关。选项D“如果父母不在家时有陌生人打来电话，孩子该怎么办？”符合语境。故选D。 【45题详解】 根据“Lying to keep the peace or to stay safe can have positive results. However, lying to stay out of trouble can lead to more trouble in the end”可知，为了保持和平或安全而撒谎可以产生积极的结果。然而，为了避免麻烦而撒谎最终会导致更多的麻烦。故此处应介绍撒谎的原因有好有坏。选项C“人们说谎的原因很多，有好的也有坏的。”符合语境。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题共55分） 四、词汇运用（本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式或时态，使短文通顺、连贯。 In October, 2024, people watched a new ballet named The Jade Hairpin (《玉簪记》) at the China Shanghai International Arts Festival.

Tell me why.” Have you found yourself listening to “ancient people” online recently? Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu “back to life”. These videos have become popular, showing these ancient icons speaking in modern language. In one video, Du Fu talks about his experience during the An-Shi Rebellion (755—763). In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late. “These videos make me want to learn more about important ancient people. I didn’t know much about their stories before,” said Wang Jiayi, 15, from Shandong. The new trend isn’t for everyone, however. The way these ancient people speak, in high tones (声调) and always asking questions, annoys (使心烦) some people. “They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,” said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu. Xia Boen, 14, from Hubei, felt the same. But he was surprised to find that he “remembered almost everything they said about their experiences and achievements” because of the speaking style in the videos. These videos use a more modern way to let ancient people “speak for themselves”. However, “we should be careful with these videos and make sure they are not sharing wrong information,” noted Nanfang Daily. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 66. How do creative vloggers bring ancient people “back to life”? ________________________________________ 67. What does Li Shizhen do in one video? ________________________________________ 68. What does Wang Shutong think of these ancient people in the videos? ________________________________________ 69.

Because of the speaking style. 70. Be careful with wrong information. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了创意视频博主利用AI技术让杜甫等古代名人“复活”，视频受欢迎，有人因古人说话方式不满，有人因视频记住古人经历成就，且要注意视频可能存在分享错误信息的情况。 【66题详解】 根据“Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu ‘back to life’.”可知，视频博主们正在利用人工智能技术让历史上的名人“起死回生”，故填Using AI technology. 【67题详解】 根据“In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late.”可知，他取笑现在生活方式，故填He makes fun of modern lifestyles. 【68题详解】 根据“‘They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,’ said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu.”可知，认为他们太有压迫感，故填They are too pushy. 【69题详解】 根据“But he was surprised to find that he ‘remembered almost everything they said about their experiences and achievements’ because of the speaking style in the videos.”可知，由于视频中的说话风格，他“几乎记住了他们所说的一切经历和成就”。故填Because of the speaking style. 【70题详解】 根据“we should be careful with these videos and make sure they are not sharing wrong information”可知，我们应该小心这些视频，确保它们没有分享错误的信息，故填Be careful with wrong information. 七、书面表达（本题满分25分） 71. 初中是人生的转折点，初中是我们奋斗史的见证，初中是我们流汗不流泪的青春，初中是我们欢声笑语的天地，初中留给我们最难忘的回忆。你可以选择一个关键词来描述你的成长印记，如change，challenge，thankful，hard-working等，请以Middle School Life in My Eyes为题，写一篇英语短文。 要点如下： 1 Choose a word to describe your middle school life and explain the reason. 2.

Do you want to know more? Many people think that the Chinese civilization (文明) began around the Yellow River, stretching back over 5,000 years without interruption (中断). Compared to other civilizations of the time, Chinese culture stayed largely the same as today’s culture. The other nations fell into wars and disappeared, or were controlled by other nations, though. 26. What is Chinese culture special about? A. It is rich. B. It begins early. C. It lasts till now. D. It has many dynasties. 27. Which dynasty lasts the longest time? A. The Xia Dynasty. B. The Shang Dynasty. C. The Zhou Dynasty. D. The Qin Dynasty. 28. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Bronze was first used by the Zhou people. B. The Xia people usually wrote on turtle shells. C. Silk products were popular in the Shang Dynasty. D. The Qin Dynasty is the beginning of Imperial China. B Climate change has brought a serious warning of not having enough water and animal disappearing if we don’t care about Mother Nature. Indeed, many efforts have been made by different organizations, encouraging us to save the earth. These have certainly raised awareness of the environmental problems, and laws have been made by governments to reduce pollution. However, I don’t think people are doing enough to protect the environment. Every year about 9 million people die from pollution—related causes and that is 3 times more than deaths because of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. This number shows that many people pay little attention to the environment — in their daily lives. And there’re not enough actions to prevent the biodiversity (生物多样性) loss, climate change and pollution. What we need to do, is to first relook the way we live. For the past 2 years, I have been trying to protect the environment. Firstly, I am more careful with the use of electricity. I used to turn on all the lights when entering a room. Now I make it a point to open the curtains and let natural light in. If it gets dark, I turn on only one light and make sure to turn it off when leaving the room. This has worked wonders and my parents are pleased too, as it has cut our electricity bill by 50 percent. ① Besides energy protection, I’ve formed the habit of bringing my own reusable bags wherever I go. This greatly reduces my need of plastic bags! Whenever I go shopping, I use my own reusable bags instead of plastic bags offered. It takes time and effort to wash up, but when I count the number of plastic bags that I would save with this small behavior, it’s well worth those extra minutes of my time. ② Finally, being a carnivore (食肉动物), I can never completely give up meat. Yet, after reading an article showing how a vegan (素食主义者) diet could cut global greenhouse emissions by about 70 percent, I decided to do something—be vegetarian once a week. ③ At a UN meeting in December 2018, where over 200 countries met to find 9 practical ways to reduce carbon, the most important reminder was that we are the last generation that can stop climate change. ④ 29. What does the underlined word “These” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. The importance of saying no to pollution. B. The awareness of protecting the environment. C. The efforts organizations have made to save the earth. D. The laws governments have made to reduce pollution. 30. What are Paragraph 3, Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. How the writer is careful with energy. B. How the writer protects the environment. C. What the writer does to save electricity. D. What the writer gets from his experience. 31. According to this passage, which of the following is true? A Now all people around the world have done a lot to save the energy. B. In 2018 more than 200 countries met to find ways to reduce pollution. C. Every year AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria cause more deaths than pollution. D. For many years the writer has been caring about the environment in his daily life. 32. In which place of this passage can the sentence “If that is true, I hope to be able to say that I have done my part to protect the one place we all call home.” be put into? A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ C Technology has done our world wonders: from development in medicine to our daily lives. It has undoubtedly changed the way our society works, and how we communicate with one another and ourselves. However, by welcoming technology as part of life, are we losing our ability to create? Technology provides a new chance for creativity to exist (存在). Through technology, ideas can be set free and come to life. We have the necessary tools for greater possibilities and new solutions. For example, businesses now have the chance to improve themselves more creatively through websites, film advertisements, social media or radio. However, when we look more closely, it’s easy to notice some disadvantages. For example, many of us depend so much on automated calculations (计算器) rather than taking the time to work it out for ourselves. Another situation is that a lot of people are spending too much time on screens. As a result, they are reducing the chances to come up with their own creations. Is there a way to find a balance between technology and human creativity? I think so. It is simply a matter of making sure that creativity is not deterred by technology. The first way is to reduce our use of electronic products by setting limits on when, where, and how long we use them, turning off the notice on your phone. Once you become used to these, you will feel surprised how little you think about your phone. Another wonderful way is to take daily walks in nature. It can help you refresh and keep going. In the long run, a daily walk can not only influence our creativity and imagination but further our physical and mental health. We can also develop our creativity by doing yoga, keeping a diary, or reading. The actions you choose to take will help change the relationship between creativity and technology for the better. With the right balance, technology can be a good method of improving creativity. 33. Why does the writer ask the underlined question in the beginning? A. To draw the reader’s attention to the topic. B. To show the writer likes technology. C. To tell the reader the importance of technology. D. To prove creativity is more important. 34. The underlined word “deterred” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A. protected B. controlled C. attacked D. prevented 35. The structure of the passage may be ________. A. B. C. D. 36. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. limiting the use of our phones can help us develop creativity B. turning off the notice on the phone will make people worried C. spending time on screens is the easiest way to keep people happy D. a daily walk does more good to physical health than to mental health D Sean Elliot Martin and Pancho Timmons are friends on a mission (任务) to change the world, one small act of kindness at a time. That’s the subject of their new book, Quick and Easy World Change, which they published as an e-book. “The premise (前提) is that you don’t really need to be a superstar or have a lot of money to make the world a better place,” said Timmons, the founder (创始者) of two organizations-Pennsylvania Youth Initiative and Connect in Effect. The project is inspired (启发) by another kindness-related book Martin worked on years ago. The latest one takes pars of the first book and updates it with more inspiring stories and lists of little things people can do daily to spread goodness wherever they go. Just a little effort For example, the book gives readers ideas for good things to do in 60 seconds, with only $1 or without even leaving the house. People are encouraged to get creative, too. “Make a game of giving-you can give yourself points for different little things,” Martin said. It also mentions the concept of compound kindness-a domino (多米诺) effect of good deeds. “If you praise one person, they’re likely to praise two to five people,” Martin said. Paying it forward The e-book is their way to pay those experiences and ideas forward. For Timmons, a teacher’s compassion (同情) in college was a turning point for him. “I did all the things I was supposed to do-worked hard, studied hard-and ended up failing the exams,” he recalled. “But the professor pulled me aside and said, ‘You’re an A student turning in C and D work because you’re clearly dyslexic (诵读困难的) and not getting the help you need.’” “That 5-minute conversation was the difference between dropping out of college and getting two master’s degrees and now running two companies,” Timmons said. “I’ve spent my career trying to pay that forward.” 37. According to the passage,what can we know about Timmons? A. He was pretty good at studying when in college. B. He was influenced by his college teacher’s words. C. He ran two companies when he was still a student. D. He enjoyed being praised by others in his school life. 38. How did Martin explain what“compound kindness”is? A. By solying a difficult problem. B. By telling an interesting story. C. By describing a possible situation. D. By making a detailed comparison (比较). 39.

Tell me why.” Have you found yourself listening to “ancient people” online recently? Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu “back to life”. These videos have become popular, showing these ancient icons speaking in modern language. In one video, Du Fu talks about his experience during the An-Shi Rebellion (755—763). In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late. “These videos make me want to learn more about important ancient people. I didn’t know much about their stories before,” said Wang Jiayi, 15, from Shandong. The new trend isn’t for everyone, however. The way these ancient people speak, in high tones (声调) and always asking questions, annoys (使心烦) some people. “They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,” said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu. Xia Boen, 14, from Hubei, felt the same. But he was surprised to find that he “remembered almost everything they said about their experiences and achievements” because of the speaking style in the videos. These videos use a more modern way to let ancient people “speak for themselves”. However, “we should be careful with these videos and make sure they are not sharing wrong information,” noted Nanfang Daily. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 66.
