School Biology Fair (展览会)
by Anita Jones, age 14
Last month, all the science teachers at my junior high school decided to set up a biology fair. They asked all the students to plan and make a project for the two-day fair last week. I was in a group with my best friends Wei Ling, Julia and Pedro. All the groups worked hard on their projects before the fair.
My group did an experiment to find out what happens to your teeth when you drink sugary drinks. We used three eggs because their shells (蛋壳) are similar to the outside of our teeth. We put them into different glasses with cola, apple juice and water. Then we checked how the colour changed and took pictures that we stuck on a large whiteboard in the hall.
The other groups from my class worked on a lot of interesting projects, too. It was great to walk around the hall and look at the other students while they worked. One group showed how important light is to grow plants. Another group stopped an apple from turning brown by using lemon juice.
We all worked really hard and at the end of the two weeks our teachers chose the top four projects. They gave a prize to each of them. The top prize went to a group of older students. It’s a pity that my group didn’t get a prize, but that’s not so important. I was just pleased we took part and we had a great time together.
9. _______, the students began to plan and make a project for the fair.

A. Worried and sad. B. Angry with the teachers’ choice. C. Pity but not so important. D. Sorry for not trying harder.
【答案】9. A 10. A 11. D 12. C

Passage 4
This is the story of Joe and Fonzie. “Joe” is Joe Hoagland, who was three years old when the story began. And “Fonzie” is a 3-metre-long, 275-kilogram dolphin.
When Joe was born, he had a problem with his heart and doctors had to operate (动手术) on him. When he was three, he had another operation. This operation didn’t go well and he became paralysed—he couldn’t move the left side of his body. The doctors at the hospital didn’t think he could get better. Deena, Joe’s mother, took him to different places for therapy (治疗), but it wasn’t very successful. Then the family moved to Florida. Joe liked being in the water and Deena thought swimming could help him. First, they went to swimming pools in hotels, but some hotel guests didn’t like them being there. Then one day she went with Joe to a place in Key Largo called Dolphin Plus, where people swam with dolphins. Joe met Fonzie there and the story really began.
Soon, Joe wanted to see Fonzie every day. He loved playing with him and feeding him. Every time that Joe arrived, Fonzie came to see him. Joe’s mother told him always to feed Fonzie using his left hand, so Joe used his left side more and more. Slowly, he got better and better.
Sadly, Fonzie died in 2004 when Joe was 17. He wrote, “Fonzie was a great friend to me; he and I shared a lot of good times. He always put a smile on my face.”
13. What was wrong with Joe when he was born?
A. He had a problem with his eyes. B. He had a problem with his heart.
C. He had a problem with his legs. D. He had a problem with his ears.
14. The underlined word “paralysed” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ _______”.
A. 疼痛的 B. 过敏的 C. 瘫痪的 D. 失眠的
15. Where did Joe meet Fonzie?
A. In a hotel swimming pool. B. At Island Dolphin Care. C. In a hospital. D. At Dolphin Plus in Key Largo.
16 Why did the writer write this passage?
A. To encourage people to protect dolphins.
B. To share a friendship story between a dolphin and a boy.
C. To talk about Joe’s unlucky experiences.
D. To introduce a new way of treating heart problems.
【答案】13. B 14. C 15. D 16. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了患有心脏问题且术后左侧身体瘫痪的男孩Joe,在佛罗里达州基拉戈的Dolphin Plus与海豚Fonzie相识,在与Fonzie的相处中逐渐康复,二者结下深厚友谊,Fonzie去世后Joe也铭记这段情谊的故事。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据“When Joe was born, he had a problem with his heart and doctors had to operate on him.”可知,Joe出生时心脏有问题。故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“he couldn’t move the left side of his body”可知,他左侧身体无法移动,由此可推测“paralysed”意为“瘫痪的”。故选C。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Then one day she went with Joe to a place in Key Largo called Dolphin Plus, where people swam with dolphins. Joe met Fonzie there and the story really began.”可知,Joe在基拉戈的Dolphin Plus遇到了 Fonzie。故选D。
【16题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了男孩Joe和海豚Fonzie之间的友谊故事,以及Fonzie对Joe康复的帮助。因此作者写这篇文章是为了分享海豚和男孩之间的友谊故事。故选B。

Winning together
At the World Table Tennis Championships in Doha, Qatar, on May 24, Chinese players Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin won their third straight mixed doubles title. “We trusted each other when the score was close. We shared the same determination (决心) to make it three in a row,” Sun told CGTN.
Both born in 2000, Wang and Sun teamed up as mixed doubles partners in 2017. They won their first mixed doubles title at the 2021 Houston World Championships, knowing more challenges were waiting for them. Just months before, at the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese players Xu Xin and Liu Shiwen lost in the final, and mixed doubles became the only event (比赛) in China that did not win a gold medal.
As one of China’s top mixed doubles pairs, Wang and Sun were on a mission to win the gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. With lots of practice and tough matches, they’ve developed better strategies and teamwork.
“Yingsha and I have complementary (互补的) personalities. If I get upset during a game, she’s there to help me chill out,” Wang told Beijing Youth Daily.
Balancing singles, mixed doubles and team events, both Sun and Wang have fully packed schedules. Their training lasts from 6:30 am to 10 pm, and they have spent a lot of time on mixed doubles practice. Their hard work paid off at the Paris Olympics, where they won the first mixed doubles gold medal for the Chinese team.
Nicknamed “Shatou”, the pair’s on-court chemistry has won the hearts of many table tennis fans. Behind their popularity lies an eight-year partnership that sees them overcome challenges side by side.

School Biology Fair (展览会)
by Anita Jones, age 14
Last month, all the science teachers at my junior high school decided to set up a biology fair. They asked all the students to plan and make a project for the two-day fair last week. I was in a group with my best friends Wei Ling, Julia and Pedro. All the groups worked hard on their projects before the fair.
My group did an experiment to find out what happens to your teeth when you drink sugary drinks. We used three eggs because their shells (蛋壳) are similar to the outside of our teeth. We put them into different glasses with cola, apple juice and water. Then we checked how the colour changed and took pictures that we stuck on a large whiteboard in the hall.
The other groups from my class worked on a lot of interesting projects, too. It was great to walk around the hall and look at the other students while they worked. One group showed how important light is to grow plants. Another group stopped an apple from turning brown by using lemon juice.
We all worked really hard and at the end of the two weeks, our teachers chose the top four projects. They gave a prize to each of them. The top prize went to a group of older students. It’s a pity that my group didn’t get a prize, but that’s not so important. I was just pleased we took part and we had a great time together.
9. _______, the students began to plan and make a project for the fair.
A. Last week B. Last month C. Two weeks ago D. At the end of the term
10. Why did Anita’s group choose eggs for the experiment?
A. Eggshells are similar to our teeth. B. They had no other things but eggs.
C. Eggs are easy to break. D. Eggs are cheaper than real teeth.
11. Which experiments did the students do in the passage?
①Tested what happens to the teeth while drinking sugary drinks.
②Checked how the colour of eggshells changed and taking pictures.
③Studied the importance of light for plant growth.
④Stopped apples from browning with lemon juice.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
12. How did Anita feel about not winning a prize?
A. Worried and sad. B. Angry with the teachers’ choice. C. Pity but not so important. D. Sorry for not trying harder.
Passage 4
This is the story of Joe and Fonzie. “Joe” is Joe Hoagland, who was three years old when the story began. And “Fonzie” is a 3-metre-long, 275-kilogram dolphin.
When Joe was born, he had a problem with his heart and doctors had to operate (动手术) on him. When he was three, he had another operation. This operation didn’t go well and he became paralysed—he couldn’t move the left side of his body. The doctors at the hospital didn’t think he could get better. Deena, Joe’s mother, took him to different places for therapy (治疗), but it wasn’t very successful. Then the family moved to Florida. Joe liked being in the water and Deena thought swimming could help him. First, they went to swimming pools in hotels, but some hotel guests didn’t like them being there. Then one day she went with Joe to a place in Key Largo called Dolphin Plus, where people swam with dolphins. Joe met Fonzie there and the story really began.
Soon, Joe wanted to see Fonzie every day. He loved playing with him and feeding him. Every time that Joe arrived, Fonzie came to see him. Joe’s mother told him always to feed Fonzie using his left hand, so Joe used his left side more and more. Slowly, he got better and better.
Sadly, Fonzie died in 2004 when Joe was 17. He wrote, “Fonzie was a great friend to me; he and I shared a lot of good times. He always put a smile on my face.”
