I was walking around in a Big Bazar store doing shopping, when I saw a cashier talking to a boy that couldn’t have been more than 5 or 6 years old. The cashier said, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have enough money to buy this doll.” Then the little boy turned to me and asked, “Uncle, are you sure I don’t have enough money?”
I counted his cash and replied, “You know that you don’t have enough money to buy the doll, my dear.” The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand. Finally, I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to. “It’s the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much. I want to gift her for her birthday. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there.” His eyes were so sad while saying this.
“My sister has been dead. Daddy says that Mommy is going to pass away very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.” My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and said, “I let Daddy tell Mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.” Then he showed me a very nice photo of him, where he was laughing. He then told me, “I want Mommy to take my picture with her so my sister won’t forget me. I love my mommy and I wish she doesn’t have to leave me, but Daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.”
Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly. I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy, “Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll?” He said, “OK. I hope I do have enough.” I added some of my money to his, without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money.
I finished my shopping in a totally different state from when I started. I couldn’t get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state.
4. What can we learn about the boy?

If you are invited to a wedding, baby shower or other celebrations, you will be expected to bring a gift. Unless you know the host very well, the gift should be modest in value, about $25 or so.
For a wedding , the bride will have "registered ( 登 记 )" at one or two local department stores,indicating the items she prefers.You can buy the couple a gift that isn’t listed , but most people buy something listed on the registry (记录簿). If you buy an item listed on the registry, be sure to tell the store that you are doing this, so that the couple doesn’t receive duplicate (重复的) gifts.For a baby shower,bring a gift appropriate for a new born baby.
If you wish to give a gift when you leave to return to your country, the best gift is something unique to your country. It does not need to be especially valuable or rare. Possibilities include a book about your country, an inexpensive piece of handicraft( 手工艺品)or art, or something else that reflects your culture. If the children collect coins and stamps, they would be very pleased with a set of your country’s coins or a selection of stamps from your country.
If you owe a debt of deep gratitude to an American host family, a common way of repaying it is to take the family to a form of entertainment, such as a baseball, basketball, or a good restaurant.
Gift giving is not as important in America as it is in other countries, so there is nothing wrong with not giving a gift. If you need help, talk to a salesperson at a department store. Tell them about the person who will be receiving the gift and the reason for the gift, and they will help you find something appropriate.
8. Why is collecting coins mentioned in the third paragraph?
A. To show the important role of coins as gifts.
B. To stress the popularity of coin collecting in America.
C. To give an example of selecting a unique gift.
D. To explain the relation between coins and culture.
9. What does the author intend to do in Para. 4?
A. Introduce a way to show gratitude.
B. Add some background information.
C Summarize(总结) the previous paragraphs.
D. Recommend some family-friendly activities.
10. The writer develops the passage mainly by .
A. using numbers. B. giving examples.
C. giving reasons. D. telling stories.
11. Which can serve as a title for the text?
A. How to select a gift B. Gift giving in America
C. Where to buy a gift D. Celebrations in America
D
Along with a rising number of space missions by government agencies and private industries, comes a fresh set of problems for Earth: potentially dangerous space junk.
A recent study published in the scientific journal Nature Astronomy concluded “that current practices have a 10 percent chance of one or more deaths over a decade”. In other words according to researchers from the University of Victoria and the University of British Columbia, there’s roughly a one-in-ten chance that the next decade will witness falling space junk kill someone.
The space junk orbiting the earth is an unfortunate by-product of our desire to explore and document space. According to 2021 figures from NASA and the Department of Defense’s Space Surveillance Data, the agencies were actively tracking more than 27,000 pieces of space junk, most of which are larger than a softball and that casually orbit the planet. While the floating space junk is certainly a problem, not all the objects that went up must come down, and, in fact, a number of pieces simply burn up in the atmosphere. But sometimes those objects, particularly large ones like used rocket attachments, give in to gravity and fall back down to Earth to be dealt with once again by their human makers. Typically, people don’t die or even get injured by this phenomenon — many of the falling pieces crash into the ocean.
They also have to deal with the unsettling feeling of knowing that large rocket pieces can just fall from the sky and that it might affect people in certain parts of the world more than others.
This poses an obvious safety risk to people on the ground. “When some large parts of space junk return to Earth, the parts of their mass survive the heat of atmosphere. Many of the surviving pieces are potentially dangerous, giving serious risks on land, at sea, and to people in airplanes,” the study explains.
12. What is the conclusion of the study published in Nature Astronomy?
A. People will see space junk easily in the future.
B. Government agencies and private industries will develop fast.
C. Some people may be hit to death by objects from the space.
D. There will be a 10 percent chance for human to die in 10 years.
13. What can be inferred from the third paragraph?
A. Normally we should not worry about space junk.
B. The large space junk will pollute the ocean.
C. The floating space junk will come down finally.
D. The space junk will get burnt in the sky.
14. What might be discussed in the following part of the text?
A How to find space junk.
B. How to deal with space junk.
C. How to inform people of the danger.
D. How to avoid the danger of space junk.
15. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Space Junk Causes Pollution
B. How to Take Back Space Junk
C. Exploring Space Takes in Unfortunate Results
D. Space Junk Puts People at Risk

62. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
There are many things in middle school that I still remember clearly. I studied three years in a country school, which is faraway. However, it has a good environment and strict but kind teachers, so I loved the school and all my teachers very much. One Friday, just as we began to read books in reading class at our desks, our teacher, Mrs. Hill, said that she needed to be out of the classroom for a few minutes. She asked the class to read in silence while she was gone. And she said that those who didn’t read books in silence would have to answer to her when she returned. It was well-known that Mrs. Hill was strict. So we had to be on our best behavior.
But that Friday, Mrs. Hill hadn’t been gone for ten seconds before some students in the classroom started to talk. From one corner of the classroom I heard Josh ask Nick, “Can I trade my candies for your toy?” At the other end of the room I heard Samantha tell Kayla, “Let’s sit together on the bus for the museum field trip tomorrow.” And so it went all around me, until about half of the students talked with each other.
After a while, I, too, forgot about Mrs. Hill’s instructions. I turned back and asked my friend Liza, “Can I borrow your storybook and keep it for a day?” As soon as the words were out of my mouth, Mrs. Hill walked into the classroom. The whole class returned to silence immediately. And we were full of fear.
Mrs. Hill slowly looked around the classroom and said, “If you were talking while I was gone, then please stand up.” The guilt (内疚) suddenly weighed heavily on me. “I shouldn’t have talked while she was not in the classroom. And now I should be honest and admit my mistake bravely. This is what my parents have always told me,” I thought. Then, I summoned up (鼓起) my courage to stand up, worrying about the punishment that waited for me. Then I looked around.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为100词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。
To my surprise, no one followed me.

【答案】Dear Mike,
I’m thrilled to share with you my freshman year in high school and my summer vacation plans.
This past year has been an exciting journey for me. I’ve made many new friends and have been challenging myself academically. The courses are more demanding, but I’m enjoying the learning process and the sense of accomplishment it brings.
As for my summer vacation, I plan to relax a bit after the busy school year. I plan to catch up on my favorite TV shows, and spend some time traveling with my family. It’ll be a great chance to unwind and recharge before the next school year.
What about your summer plans, Mike? I’m curious to know what adventures you have lined up.
Yours,
Li Hua

【62题答案】
【答案】
To my surprise, no one followed me. The classroom remained still, while everyone was avoiding eye contact, with their faces filled with fear and hesitation. I stood there alone, feeling a mix of embarrassment and determination. When she saw this, Mrs. Hill walked over to me, and her expression softened slightly. “Thank you for your honesty,” she said gently. Then, turning to the class, she added, “Honesty is more important than avoiding punishment. I hope all of you can learn from this.” Her words made me feel proud and the others hang their heads in shame.
