Jatto’s mother was doing housework while Jatto was reading a book aloud in English. Jatto didn’t always like 36 to his mother. She spoke only Esan, one of the languages in Nigeria. Wasn’t it a waste of time to read to someone who couldn’t understand? His mother didn’t even realize when he made 37 . Still, she insisted (坚决要求) he read aloud every day.
“Let’s bottle nuts when you finish reading,” she said in Esan.
Jatto shook his head. He had so much homework to do. “I’ll never finish reading.”
Jatto said “never” in English because there was no 38 for “never” in Esan.
“What’s ‘never’?” she asked.
Jatto cleared his throat to 39 “never”. “It means I won’t stop reading today, tomorrow,” He drew circles in the air. “Or the day after the day after tomorrow, the day after the day after, the day after…. .”
“Oh, OK! That’s forever,” his mother said.
Jatto stared at the nuts. Each one looked delicious.
Now would be a 40 time to eat some. But he couldn’t ask. He remembered the 41 he’d drawn in the air.
Jatto’s mother whistled (吹口哨) . Tam-tam, their cow, came up to them. Jatto could 42 cow- milk air as his mother milked her. Tam-tam’s milk was the best he’d ever tasted.
Jatto needed to take his mind off the 43 “Mama, why do you make me read to you even though you don’t understand?”
“I want you to practice speaking English often,” she said.
“I can practice English in my head,” he said, not 44
His mother smiled. “We share our stories aloud with others, not in our heads where 45 can hear them.”
Jatto nodded. He’d learned about that in school.
She decided to tell him a story and handed him some nuts and milk. “You can eat 46 I talk.”
He ate as she started. Soon, Jatto was singing the story with his mother.
“You never tell me stories,” he said when they stopped 47 .
She sighed. “I used to, but when you started school, I wanted you to focus on English.”
“I make a lot of mistakes when I read to you,” Jatto said.
His mother 48 . “I guessed so. But I like hearing the sound of your voice while I work.”
Jatto knew what she meant. He had enjoyed listening to her story as he bottled the nuts. It made the work seem 49 . “I have an idea” he said. “Next time, I will read a story to you in English, then I will tell you the same story in Esan. We can even make up songs together.”
“Great! And I will tell you stories in Esan and you can say them back to me in English. Let’s ‘never’ stop 50 stories.”
Jatto smiled. His mother’s understanding of “never” was even better than his own.
36.A.talking B.reading C.replying D.listening

Reading is more than just a fun activity—it can actually change the way your brain works. Studies show that reading can improve your brain’s health, make you feel better, and even help you focus. Let’s take a look at how reading can have a good influence on your brain.
Your brain works hard when you read. It has to understand the words, think about their meaning, and imagine the story. This helps your brain get stronger and improves skills like memory, problem-solving, and thinking. Scientists believe that reading regularly is helpful, because it can protect your brain from getting weaker as you grow older, keeping it sharp for a long time.
Reading can help you feel less stressed. In one study, it was found that reading can reduce (减轻) stress by up to 68%. When you read a book, you focus on the story, which helps take your mind off your worries. This is similar to how activities like listening to music or doing yoga can make you feel relaxed.
Reading stories can help you understand how other people feel. When you read about characters in different situations, your brain learns to feel what they are feeling. This makes you more understanding—able to understand other people’s feelings. Studies show that people who read stories are better at connecting with others and understanding their feelings.
When you read, your brain produces chemicals (化学物质) that make you feel good. For example, dopamine (多巴胺) is produced when something exciting happens in the story. Serotonin and oxytocin helps improve your mood (情绪) . These chemicals make you feel happy and relaxed.
Reading is not only enjoyable——it is also good for your brain and mood. It can make your brain stronger, reduce stress, and even help you understand others better. So next time you read, remember: you are changing your brain chemistry for the better!
61.What does the underlined word “sharp” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Busy. B.Slow. C.Active. D.Silent.
62.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Reading allows people to focus better. B.Reading can help reduce people’s stress.
C.Reading is more popular than doing yoga. D.Reading makes people remember their problems.
63.When does your brain produce dopamine?
A.When you finish a difficult book. B.When you feel stressed and need to relax.
C.When you read something exciting in a story. D.When you try to understand people’s feelings.
64.What’s the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?
A.To compare reading with other relaxing activities.
B.To show the history of brain research about reading.
C.To encourage students to read more books for exams.
D.To explain how reading improves the brain and mood.
65.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Reading Changes Your Brain. B.How to Choose a Good Book.
C.Reading: A Fun Way to Relax. D.The History of Human Reading.

“Let’s bottle nuts when you finish reading,” she said in Esan.
Jatto shook his head. He had so much homework to do. “I’ll never finish reading.”
Jatto said “never” in English because there was no 38 for “never” in Esan.
“What’s ‘never’?” she asked.
Jatto cleared his throat to 39 “never”. “It means I won’t stop reading today, tomorrow,” He drew circles in the air. “Or the day after the day after tomorrow, the day after the day after, the day after…. .”
“Oh, OK! That’s forever,” his mother said.
Jatto stared at the nuts. Each one looked delicious.
Now would be a 40 time to eat some. But he couldn’t ask. He remembered the 41 he’d drawn in the air.
Jatto’s mother whistled (吹口哨) . Tam-tam, their cow, came up to them. Jatto could 42 cow- milk air as his mother milked her. Tam-tam’s milk was the best he’d ever tasted.
Jatto needed to take his mind off the 43 “Mama, why do you make me read to you even though you don’t understand?”
“I want you to practice speaking English often,” she said.
“I can practice English in my head,” he said, not 44
His mother smiled. “We share our stories aloud with others, not in our heads where 45 can hear them.”
Jatto nodded. He’d learned about that in school.
She decided to tell him a story and handed him some nuts and milk. “You can eat 46 I talk.”
He ate as she started. Soon, Jatto was singing the story with his mother.
“You never tell me stories,” he said when they stopped 47 .
She sighed. “I used to, but when you started school, I wanted you to focus on English.”
“I make a lot of mistakes when I read to you,” Jatto said.
His mother 48 . “I guessed so. But I like hearing the sound of your voice while I work.”
Jatto knew what she meant. He had enjoyed listening to her story as he bottled the nuts. It made the work seem 49 . “I have an idea” he said. “Next time, I will read a story to you in English, then I will tell you the same story in Esan. We can even make up songs together.”
“Great! And I will tell you stories in Esan and you can say them back to me in English. Let’s ‘never’ stop 50 stories.”
Jatto smiled. His mother’s understanding of “never” was even better than his own.

Maria Mitchell was born in 1818. Her love of astronomy (天文学) started in her childhood. Mitchell’s father was a teacher and an astronomer. He made sure that all his children received the same education. This was unusual at that time. Most families only educated boys. Mitchell’s father taught her how to use the telescope (望远镜). She studied hard and spent every clear night watching the night sky.
After Mitchell finished school, she worked in a library for 20 years. She worked all day among books, and then spent her evenings observing (观察) the stars. On that night in October 1847, Mitchell found a new comet (彗星). She noted her discovery and ran to tell her father. He told the news of her discovery to the scientific community.

Reading is more than just a fun activity—it can actually change the way your brain works. Studies show that reading can improve your brain’s health, make you feel better, and even help you focus. Let’s take a look at how reading can have a good influence on your brain.
Your brain works hard when you read. It has to understand the words, think about their meaning, and imagine the story. This helps your brain get stronger and improves skills like memory, problem-solving, and thinking. Scientists believe that reading regularly is helpful, because it can protect your brain from getting weaker as you grow older, keeping it sharp for a long time.
Reading can help you feel less stressed. In one study, it was found that reading can reduce (减轻) stress by up to 68%. When you read a book, you focus on the story, which helps take your mind off your worries. This is similar to how activities like listening to music or doing yoga can make you feel relaxed.
Reading stories can help you understand how other people feel. When you read about characters in different situations, your brain learns to feel what they are feeling. This makes you more understanding—able to understand other people’s feelings. Studies show that people who read stories are better at connecting with others and understanding their feelings.
When you read, your brain produces chemicals (化学物质) that make you feel good. For example, dopamine (多巴胺) is produced when something exciting happens in the story. Serotonin and oxytocin helps improve your mood (情绪) . These chemicals make you feel happy and relaxed.
Reading is not only enjoyable——it is also good for your brain and mood. It can make your brain stronger, reduce stress, and even help you understand others better. So next time you read, remember: you are changing your brain chemistry for the better!
61.What does the underlined word “sharp” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Busy. B.Slow. C.Active. D.Silent.
62.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Reading allows people to focus better. B.Reading can help reduce people’s stress.
C.Reading is more popular than doing yoga. D.Reading makes people remember their problems.
63.When does your brain produce dopamine?
A.When you finish a difficult book. B.When you feel stressed and need to relax.
C.When you read something exciting in a story. D.When you try to understand people’s feelings.
64.What’s the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?
A.To compare reading with other relaxing activities.
B.To show the history of brain research about reading.
C.To encourage students to read more books for exams.
D.To explain how reading improves the brain and mood.
65.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Reading Changes Your Brain. B.How to Choose a Good Book.
C.Reading: A Fun Way to Relax. D.The History of Human Reading.
