"Mom,it has been cloudy these days.I don't think I can get this picture!"Mike complained. "Why not use one of your photos on the computer?"suggested Mom. "I can't -the rules say the photos have to be taken with a traditional camera.We hand in a roll of film,it gets developed（冲洗胶卷）,and we 2 one photo for the competition."

The next morning,Mike noticed he could take one more picture to complete the roll of film,so he walked into Zach's room.Zach was 5 quietly with a teddy bear under his arm.Mike didn’t wake Zach up,and carefully took a picture of him. A week later,Mike got the photos.The sunset picture was the one he was most 6 to see.There it was!It was as nearly perfect as Mike had expected.

At first,the idea of clearing tables upset me.The thought of getting up at dawn（黎明） to clean up after people made me 3 ever asking for a job.The first day was terribly busy.I was running around,racing to get a table ready for the waiting customers.I'll never forget how 4 I felt that day,but I'll also never forget sitting down for lunch with my co-workers for the first time.People my age or ten years older all sat together and talked about their days.All of a sudden I was a part of that,and it felt good to be so 5 . I've now worked at the restaurant for almost one year.I've learned to be happy about getting up so early,because I know there’re going to be a few good 6 every day there. From starting there as a shy student,I've been able to grow into a person that can go up and 7 anyone,at work or anywhere else.I’m also not as sensitive（敏感的）as I used to be -getting an impolite customer might make me feel bad,but very soon I can laugh it off with my co-workers.The little job has given me so much,and I can’t wait to go back and continue to 8 from my experience. （ ）1.A.food B.money C.attention D.advice （ ）2.A.exciting B.encouraging C.confusing D.disappointing （ ）3.A.forget B.enjoy C.regret D.imagine （ ）4.A.tired B.happy C.curious D.relaxed （ ）5.A.loved B.missed C.needed D.included （ ）6.A.dishes B.choices C.moments D.customers （ ）7.A.find B.greet C.push D.stop （ ）8.A.grow B.stand C.rest D.hide 003 The Study of "the House" What does the word"ecology"mean?It was 1 by Ernst Haeckel,a German biologist.He joined two Greek words:"oikos",meaning "house",and"logie",meaning "the study of".Together they mean "the study of the house".The"house"Haeckel had in mind is our 2 ,Earth.Earth is home for all living things -humans,animals,plants, and even tiny microbes. To study a house is to learn how its residents（居民）use it.An ecologist is a scientist who studies the 3 between organisms（生物）and their environment，the environment is an organism's surroundings.It may 4 water,gases,rocks,and temperature. Ecologists also study the balance of using the environment while protecting it. An ecologist once asked a boy 5 he thought it meant to protect the environment. The boy said,"You go into the forest and look for somebody who wants to cut down a tree.You take away his axe.You tell him about how 6 trees are.You say they are good for natural beauty,saving soil,and giving shelter to birds and other animals." "Good answer,"said the ecologist,"7 it may not be easy to find a woodcutter to talk to.Also,remember that sometimes it's 8 to cut down a tree.If we cut down too many trees,the forest will disappear.If we don't cut down any trees,we won’t get any resources from the forest.We have to find the right 9 . " "I get it,"the boy said."We need the forest's 10 for wood and paper or we might not have desks or notebooks for school."

What are Sam's 4 ?For one,he wrote,"My sister says I act like an alien（外星人）."Sam also said he had watched almost all the 5 movies he could find.His last sentence may touch people's hearts:"I am young,so I can learn to think like an alien."

We had not sat long before another person came in. Some heavy clouds,swept from the sky by a rising wind,had left the moon bright;and her light,coming in through a window near,shone full both on us and on the coming person,Miss Temple. "I came on purpose to find you.Jane Eyre,"said she."I want you in my room,and as Helen Burns is with you,she may come too." We followed Miss Temple to her apartment.It had a good fire,and looked cheerful. Miss Temple told Helen Burns to be seated in a low arm-chair on one side of the fire place, and herself asking another,she called me to her side. "Is it all over?"she asked,looking down at my face."Have you cried your sadness away?" "I am afraid I never shall do that." "Why?" "Because I have been wrongly accused（指责）,and you and everybody else,will think me a bad girl." "We shall think you what you prove yourself to be,my child.Continue to act as a good girl,and you will satisfy us." "Shall I,Miss Temple?" "You will,"said Miss Temple,"You have been accused of lying when you were little. Tell us the truth,but add nothing and exaggerate（夸大）nothing." I made up my mind that I would be most modest and most core.Having thought for a few minutes about where to start,I told her all the story of my sad childhood. （ ） 1.Which of the following words best describes Miss Temple in the passage?

Since Dmitry started to live in the countryside last August,the 32-year-old has created hundreds of video clips that record the relaxing lifestyle in Hengzhang village,Lishui city. "The rice is grown in the fields together with fish,which helps to increase local agricultural （农业的）products,"said Dmitry,while introducing products from Hengzhang village on the popular Chinese short-video platform Douyin.Besides filming videos,Dmitry also enjoys working with farmers in the fields,doing activities such as planting vegetables and feeding chickens. Living in a village provides him with unique experiences,he says,quite different from busy life in big cities,such as Shanghai,where he studies.And he has been a pleasant surprise to the villagers as well.Villager Bao Mingyue,76,says,"To our surprise,the young Russian not only knows how to cook Chinese food but is interested in working in the fields." Because of the outbreak of COVID-19,the sales of local agricultural products had dropped rapidly,so Dmitry volunteered to help sell the products in his videos.In a few months,10,000 kilograms of oranges,4,000 kilograms of dried sweet potatoes and 300 kilograms of honey had been sold. "Thanks to his videos,it seems that more tourists have come to visit our village,"says 72-year-old Pan Xianyu,who is very pleased to see the great changes in her hometown. Dmitry loves his country life."In the countryside,you can immerse（沉浸）yourself in the traditional way of life and understand this country better,"he says. According to Dmitry,some Russians'opinions about China are still out of date, although China has progressed greatly."I would like to become a people-to-people envoy （使者）of friendship between the two countries by using the Internet,"he says. （ ）1.It can be learnt from the passage that Dmitry .

When her family sold the farm and moved to the nearby town,Emma was excited.But when she got to the new school,she felt very lonely. With a sigh（叹气）,Emma turned her attention back to the present.The bus came to a stop."Welcome to the Leinweber Nature Center,"her teacher said."A guide will give us a presentation about animals,and then you'll help to feed the baby squirrels.Now,I want everyone to find a partner." Emma didn’t have any friends yet -who would be her partner?Emma got close to Julia,a talkative and outgoing girl."Could I be your partner?"Emma asked uncertainly. "Sure,"said Julia warmly. Together,the girls walked into the center.After the presentation,a keeper showed them how to hold the bottle of milk for baby squirrels.Then the girls started to feed their own baby squirrels. After the babies finished eating,the keeper asked,"Would you like to help feed the adult squirrels,too?" Emma was quick to volunteer,but when the keeper opened the first cage,the squirrel inside jumped out.Emma remained calm（镇静的）,held out her hand,made quiet sounds, and then quickly got it. "Wow!"Julia said."You're always so quiet,I thought you were afraid of everything, but you were brave." "I know that when animals are frightened or excited,you have to stay calm." The keeper nodded in agreement and asked Emma,"Would you be interested in volunteering to help out with the animals at the center?"

I went shopping and bought three kinds of Chinese fans.The first kind was the feather （羽毛）fan for the teachers,which was made of bird feathers.It was the symbol of Zhuge Liang,a very smart man in ancient China.The fans I bought for the girls were silk fans. They were also called"round silk fans".Fans of this kind were made of silk with paintings of beautiful women,birds or flowers.They were very popular with women of all ages.As for the boys,I picked the folding fans from Rongchang,a place in the west of Chongqing.

Milk.It was Amy's turn to get it.Amy sighed and shut her first-aid（急救）book. Amy tied the cow close to a tree.Somewhere down the mountain,some volunteer doctors were teaching medical skills to village nurses.Amy heard Betty drive off hours ago. "She should have taken me with her.She thinks I'm too young."Amy thought."But she's wrong.I am already 15!" Amy carried the milk back to Mama,then wandered up the road.Roy,a village boy, was trying to stand on a horse's back."No wonder they don't trust boys with anything important,"Amy thought. She had just turned away when she heard a heavy fall and a few cries.Roy was on the ground."Roy!"The kids nearby ran towards him."Get Betty,"one said.Amy shook her head."Betty's gone to the city." The kids didn't know what to do.Amy ran to Roy and saw one of his legs out of shape. A broken leg!She remembered what the first-aid book said about it. "Victor!"Amy called to one of the boys."Go get Roy's mama,and find someone with a truck,"She turned to the others."Give me your shirts.We need something to tie his leg with." Amy then found a strong,straight stick.She carefully wrapped the shirts around Roy's leg and the stick.Roy cried out in pain."I know it hurts,"Amy said softly."But this will hold it still until you get to the hospital." When Amy was done,she looked up and saw Roy's mama and a man watching beside a truck."Thank you,Amy,"Roy's mama said.Amy helped them lift Roy into the truck, then they drove down the hillside towards the hospital. The next day,Betty came to Amy's home."I heard what you did,"Betty said."You kept your head in an emergency.That's an important skill." Amy's face turned red."I was afraid..." Betty shook her head."It's OK for a nurse to be afraid,as long as she has a clear head. The volunteer doctors are coming tomorrow with vaccines.We need some more hands.Can you help?" "I'd love to."Amy replied at once. "Come early,then.There is a lot to learn." Amy smiled."I'll bring my first-aid book." （ ）1.Why didn't Betty take Amy with her to the medical training?

Extras,who play the people in crowds,on streets,or in the background of indoors scenes,can come from all walks of life.Unlike many extras,I’m a trained actor.I do get real speaking roles,but work can be hard to come by if you're not a popular star.I'’m registered（注册）with an agency that deals only with extras,so I get calls all the time.The agency explains who I'll be -someone in a crowd,a member of a jury,a clerk -and tells me where to go.Call time is usually bright and early,so I try to get to bed at a reasonable hour. Sometimes being an extra is a "hurry up and wait"job.In my first extra role,I was one of a group of office workers who come out of a building just as a car explodes（爆炸）in the street.We waited for hours for the scene to be shot,and then went in and out of the building about fifty times,trying to act terrified by an explosion which was not real.Then we had lunch,changed clothes,and spent the afternoon as customers in a department store. It may sound like I don’t enjoy the work,but I do.Being part of the background in a convincing（令人信服的）way is challenging,and being on a film or TV set is always fascinating.A lot of famous actors don't even notice the extras,but the ones who do make the job a lot of fun for everyone.As for the money,it's nothing compared to what the big actors make,but it pretty much pays the bills.And, as a bonus,I've beaten my high scores on all my phone games,thanks to all the time I spend sitting around,waiting for something to happen. （ ）1.Emily gives standard answers because . A.she is proud of her job B.she wants to hide her feelings C.she thinks it's unnecessary to explain D.they are the exact answers to the questions （ ）2.What does Emily think of her job? A.Busy. B.Enjoyable. C.Fashionable. D.Easy. （ ）3.Another way to say the underlined phrase"as a bonus"in Paragraph 4 can be " ." A.above expectation B.as a result C.in general D.after all （ ）4.According to the passage, · A.the famous actors look down upon the extras B.being an extra is always a "hurry up and wait"job C.Emily tells the truth about being a film and TV extra D.those who want to be film or TV extras must be trained （ ）5.We can infer that Emily A.often pays the bills for others B.sometimes has to get up very early C.has beaten all the phone game players D.was in face of danger in her first extra role 008 Frank and his brother Jack lived near the ocean.Frank was outgoing while Jack was shy.They liked doing different things.Frank was famous for organizing games of beach volleyball,football,and any other sport imaginable.Jack preferred to draw,paint,or build sandcastles（沙堡）. Frank didn't understand why Jack would rather do artistic things than play ball games. He believed sports often allowed many kids to play together.That was when Jack's idea hatched .He would show Frank what doing things together looked like! After Jack finished creating a special sandcastle with stairs,towers and walls,he took pictures of it.Then he painted colorful posters featuring（突出）his sandcastle and the question,"Can you top this?"He hung his posters everywhere in town,announcing his plan for a day of sandcastle artistry -all ages welcome. When Frank saw a poster,he not so nicely told Jack that no one would come.Still, shortly after sunrise on Saturday,Jack was on the beach digging in the sand.By mid- morning,four kids were sculpting（雕塑）the sand alongside him.By noon the number had increased a lot. After Frank came back from his ball game,he went to check how his brother's plan turned out.He couldn't believe what he saw.At least 30 people were building a city of sandcastles,and everyone was chatting and laughing and working together!It was the most beautiful thing he had seen on the beach. "I guess you've proved me wrong,"Frank said."You should make this sandcastle day a yearly tradition!"Handing Frank a shovel（铲子）with smile,Jack got started together with his brother on their super creation in the sand. （ ）1.What does the underlined word"hatched"in Paragraph 2 probably mean in Chinese?

Irving's interest in flying started when he was 15.He was working in his parents' bookstore in Miami,Florida.One of the customers was a pilot,Gary Robinson.One day, Robinson asked Irving if he was interested in flying.Irving didn't think he was smart enough.But the next day,Robinson took Irving to an airport.He showed Irving inside the cockpit （驾驶舱）of a Boeing 777.That experience changed Irving's life.

At flight school,Irving achieved his dream of learning how to fly.But he wasn't finished.Next,he planned to build his own plane and fly alone around the world. Building the plane was difficult.Irving asked more than 50 companies for airplane parts.Most said no,but he persisted（顽强地坚持）in asking.Three years later,he had parts worth $300,000.Columbia,an airplane company,agreed to build a plane using the parts.Soon,his airplane was ready to fly. On March 23,2007,Irving began his round-the-world trip.After 97 days -with 145 hours in the air -he landed back in Miami.A cheering crowd of people was there to welcome him. Irving saw many young people in the crowd,and this had a powerful effect（影响）on him.He wanted to use his experience to help other young people achieve their own dreams. "Everyone told me what I couldn't do,"says Irving."They said I was too young,that I didn’t have enough money.But even if no one believes in your dream,"he says,"you have to pursue（追求）it." （ ）1.Why was Gary Robinson important in Irving's life?

Every time his classmates tried to help,he would say,"Thanks,but I can do it myself."He learned to use the four fingers to do different things. When Darrius was 10,he told his father that he liked piano（钢琴）music very much. "It's too bad you can't play,"his father said.But the boy took that as a challenge（挑战）."I will show people that I can,"he said to himself. Months later,a neighbour gave him an old piano when she moved away.He taught himself to play the piano and practised for hours a day. Darrius'favourite piano music is"River Flows in You"by Yiruma,a Korean musician. It took Darrius a year to learn it."I have to come up with my own way with only four fingers,"he said.When he succeeded,he felt so proud.Later he was lucky enough to play the music together with Yiruma at a famous concert hall!Yiruma encouraged Darrius to follow his dream of playing his own music,and Darrius has made it.And his music is popular today.
