When I woke up, I found myself in a country where everything was so huge! The grass was as tall as forest trees, and ants were the size of dogs. Suddenly, the earth began to tremble --- a farmer, as tall as a mountain, walked up to me! To my surprise, he picked me up gently with two fingers and put me in his pocket. The farmer carried me to his house. His children shouted with excitement, thinking I was a living toy. The youngest boy tried to grab (抓住) me, but I quickly cried, “Please, kind sir!” The family were surprised. “It speaks!” said the farmer’s wife. From that day, they called me “Grildrig” (meaning “little doll”). The farmer’s daughter, Glumdalclitch, a kind girl of nine, became my protector. She made small clothes for me and taught me their language. One day, the farmer said, “Grildrig should make money!” He built a wooden stage (舞台) and took me to the market. People paid money to watch me perform. The farmer asked me to work so hard that I had almost no rest. Before long, the queen (女王) herself sent for me. At the palace (王宫), I ate from golden plates and slept on silk cushions (垫子). But I felt that danger was somewhere: a monkey once carried me to the rooftop (屋顶), and teacups almost drowned (淹死) me. I missed home but saw no way to run away. (Selected from Gulliver’s Travels) 24. What did Gulliver think of the country when he arrived there? A. It was very small and quiet. B.

Gulliver enjoyed his rich life in the palace. D. The farmer was interested in making money. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文节选自《格列佛游记》，讲述了格列佛逃离小人国后，船只遭遇风暴并搁浅，醒来后发现自己身处一个万物都极其巨大国家。他被一个巨人农夫拾起带回家，农夫的孩子们将他当作活玩具，农夫的女儿Glumdalclitch保护并照顾他。之后农夫让他在市场表演赚钱，最终他被女王召入王宫，但他仍感到危险并思念家乡。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When I woke up, I found myself in a country where everything was so huge! The grass was as tall as forest trees, and ants were the size of dogs.”可知，格列佛到达这个国家时，发现所有东西都非常大。故选B。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据后文“a farmer, as tall as a mountain, walked up to me”可知，巨人农夫走来时，大地应该会“摇晃”，因此“tremble”意为“shake（摇晃）”。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“‘The farmer carried me to his house.”’, ‘She made small clothes for me and taught me their language.’, ‘He built a wooden stage and took me to the market.’, ‘Before long, the queen herself sent for me.’”可知，“农夫带格列佛回家”是首先发生的（②），“Glumdalclitch 照顾格列佛”紧随其后（④）；“格列佛在市场表演赚钱”是农夫之后的行为（③）；“女王邀请格列佛入宫”是最后发生的（①）。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“One day, the farmer said, ‘Grildrig should make money!’ He built a wooden stage (舞台) and took me to the market.”可推测出，农夫对赚钱感兴趣。故选D。 C In May, 2025, the Smithsonian’s National Museum returned the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts (子弹库帛书) to China. These texts, written on silk, are the oldest surviving (现存的) books in China and the only known manuscripts from the Warring States Period (475—221 BC) (战国时期). The manuscripts were found in 1942 in a tomb (坟墓) in Changsha, Hunan. However, they were stolen (偷) and taken to the US in 1946. Many people kept asking for their return because they knew how important they were to China. After many years of effort (努力), two parts of the manuscripts, Wuxing Ling (五行令) and Gongshou Zhan (攻守占), finally returned home. The manuscripts are made up of three parts: The first part, Sishi Ling (四时令) describes what people should do during different seasons. The second part, Wuxing Ling includes a chart (图表) and text about the five elements (元素): wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. It tells people what they should or should not do each month. The third part, Gongshou Zhan is about war. It tells the best directions and the best time to fight. For years, experts studied these texts, uncovering their secrets. They show how ancient Chinese people understood nature, war, and time. Their return marks a big success in getting cultural heritage back and shows China’s growing ability to protect its history. The two returned parts will be shown at the National Museum of China in July 2025. China will also continue to bring back the final missing part, Sishi Ling. As experts say, “This success proves that a weak nation loses treasures; a strong one revives (复兴) culture.” 28. How long have Wuxing Ling and Gongshou Zhan been abroad before returning to China? A. 69 years. B. 79 years. C. 83 years. D. Over 2,000 years. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. The manuscripts were kept in a museum before the year 1942. B. All three parts of the manuscripts have been returned to China. C. The return of cultural treasures shows China is getting stronger. D. Sishi Ling describes what people should or should not do each month. 30 How does the writer start this passage? A. By describing a recent event. B. By listing dates and numbers. C. By comparing past and present China. D. By telling a story about the Manuscripts. 31. What’s the best title of this passage? A. China Gets Back Its Oldest Silk Book B. Ancient Chinese Books Found in a Tomb C. How to Protect the Old Silk Manuscripts D. The History of Silk Manuscripts in China 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。 主要介绍了2025年5月，美国史密森尼国家博物馆向中国归还了战国时期的子弹库帛书中的《五行令》和《攻守占》两部分，还介绍了其发现、流失、内容及回归的意义，中国还将继续追回剩余部分《四时令》。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The manuscripts were found in 1942 in a tomb in Changsha, Hunan. However, they were stolen and taken to the US in 1946.”以及“In May, 2025, the Smithsonian’s National Museum returned the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts to China.”“After many years of effort, two parts of the manuscripts, Wuxing Ling and Gongshou Zhan, finally returned home.”可知，1946年被盗至美国，2025年归还，2025-1946=79年。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Their return marks a big success in getting cultural heritage back and shows China’s growing ability to protect its history.”以及“As experts say, ‘This success proves that a weak nation loses treasures; a strong one revives culture.’”可知，文化瑰宝的回归表明中国正变得越来越强大。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“In May, 2025, the Smithsonian’s National Museum returned the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts to China.”可知，作者通过描述一个最近发生的事件（2025年5月子弹库帛书回归中国）开始这篇文章。故选A。 【31题详解】 最佳标题题。文章主要讲述了中国最古老的丝绸书籍——子弹库帛书中的两部分（《五行令》和《攻守占》）回归中国的相关情况，包括其历史、内容以及回归的意义等。因此，“China Gets Back Its Oldest Silk Book”最适合作为标题。故选A。 D ①You might see everything you see or hear on the Internet makes you more sure of what you already think. If this happens, be careful! You might be in something called an information cocoon (茧房) —a place where your own ideas keep coming back to you. ②This isn’t something new. Think about ancient times when people sat around a campfire. They only shared stories that their group believed and agreed with. Today, the Internet and social media are like our modern campfire. They connect people all over the world. But just like the old campfire, they also let people share and hear the ideas they already like. ③You might have noticed that social media ads (广告) seem to know what you like. This happens because of a computer program called algorithms (算法). Algorithms are like sets of rules that help computers do things. Every time you click (点击) likes or share something, you leave a “digital footprint (数字脚印)”. This helps algorithms learn what you like. Then they show you more of the same kind of content (内容). ④Information cocoons can make you feel good, but they also have some bad results. ⑤When you only see similar opinions, it’s hard to accept different views. This can make it hard for us to understand people who think differently. ⑥Information cocoons can also lead to more arguments and worries among people. This often makes different groups in society disagree with or do not trust each other even more. ▲ ⑦The good news is that there are ways to break out of the information cocoon. One important thing is to look for different kinds of information. Also, it’s important to learn how to think critically (批判地). This means checking the facts and being open to changing your mind. ⑧By doing these things, you can break out of the information cocoon and see a wider world! 32. Why does the writer mention “algorithms” in Paragraph 3? A. To say algorithms should not be used on social media. B. To talk about how algorithms can be bad for people. C. To tell the story of how algorithms were invented. D. To explain how social media ads show what you like. 33. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ? A. But the Internet can also be good. B. Some think algorithms are not safe to use. C. This is why we need to solve this problem. D. Many people like seeing the same things online. 34. What’s the best structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 35. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the information cocoon? A. Serious and angry. B. Worried but hopeful. C. Happy and encouraging. D. Scared but meaningful. 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述信息茧房的概念、形成原因、不良影响以及打破它的方法。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“You might have noticed...called algorithms (算法).”可知，提及算法是为解释社交媒体广告展示喜好内容的原因。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Information cocoons can also...each other even more.”可知，这种不良状况需要解决，选项C“这就是我们需要解决这些问题的原因”可承接。故选C。 【34题详解】 篇章结构题。文章①段引入信息茧房，②③段讲形成原因，④⑤⑥段讲不良影响，⑦⑧段讲解决办法，选项A结构与之相符。故选A。 【35题详解】 观点态度题。根据“Information cocoons can...have some bad results.”及“The good news is that...the information cocoon.”可知，作者对信息茧房既担忧又抱有希望。故选B。 Ⅴ.口语运用（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面对话，从文后7个选项中选择5个恰当的选项完成此对话。 A: You look unhappy. ___36___ B: Relations between my parents have become difficult.

No one noticed anything unusual until the last mask was removed, and the audience realized that this performer was somewhat different. Yin Qiuhua, the 19-year-old performer, was born with Down syndrome (唐氏综合征). Her mother, Zhao Haiying, has been looking for treatment for her and teaching her life skills. Zhao said, “I can’t take care of her for her whole life. My biggest wish was to find a suitable skill for her so that she can make a living by herself.” They tried almost every training course. But Yin didn’t do well in any of them. Things began to change in 2021, when Zhao met Lin Chun, a traditional Chinese opera teacher. Lin agreed to take Yin as an apprentice (徒弟) and teach her the face-changing art of Sichuan Opera. Face-changing is hard for most people, and even harder for Yin with her learning challenges. Thanks to Lin’s kindness and encouragement, she kept going. During the first year, Yin practiced for up to eight hours a day. To encourage her and help with her training, Zhao stayed with her every day. After about 18 months of hard training, Yin gave her first performance at an event in Nanchong. The performance went very smoothly, and Qiuhua received a lot of applause (掌声). Her mother was so happy and moved to tears. Since then, Lin has received invitations, offering Yin the chance to share her talent on bigger stages. Yin’s success has inspired (激励) other families across the country who have children with Down syndrome. Many have contacted Zhao, hoping to learn from her and Yin’s experiences. Zhao said, “ 4 ” 41.

Why did Yin’s mother want her to learn a skill? __________________________________________________________________ 43. How did Yin succeed in her first performance? __________________________________________________________________ 44. What might Zhao say to other parents? Finish the ending. (about 30 words) __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】41. No, she didn’t. 42. Because she wanted her daughter to make a living by herself. 43. First, she trained very hard. Second, her teacher taught her with kindness and encouragement. Third, her mother always stayed with her to encourage her. 44. The most valuable advice is that we should not give up on our children. We should try our best to discover their shining points and encourage them to face the challenges.（答案不唯一，合理即可） 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了患有唐氏综合征的19岁女孩殷秋华在母亲和老师的帮助下，通过刻苦训练掌握川剧变脸技艺并获得成功，其经历激励了其他有类似情况的家庭的故事。 【41题详解】 根据“They tried almost every training course. But Yin didn’t do well in any of them.”可知，殷秋华起初在尝试的培训课程中表现并不好。故填No, she didn’t. 【42题详解】 根据“Zhao said, ‘I can’t take care of her for her whole life. My biggest wish was to find a suitable skill for her so that she can make a living by herself.’”可知，殷秋华的妈妈希望她学习一项技能是为了让她能自己谋生。故填Because she wanted her daughter to make a living by herself. 【43题详解】 根据“Thanks to Lin’s kindness and encouragement, she kept going. During the first year, Yin practiced for up to eight hours a day. To encourage her and help with her training, Zhao stayed with her every day.”可知，殷秋华首次演出成功是因为她训练刻苦、老师的友善与鼓励以及妈妈的陪伴鼓励。故填First, she trained very hard. Second, her teacher taught her with kindness and encouragement. Third, her mother always stayed with her to encourage her. 【44题详解】 结合前文殷秋华的经历以及她的成功对其他家庭的激励，赵海英可能会对其他父母说不要放弃孩子，要发掘他们的闪光点。故填The most valuable advice is that we should not give up on our children. We should try our best to discover their shining points and encourage them to face the challenges.（答案不唯一，合理即可） Ⅶ. 完成句子。（每小题2分，共10分） 根据所给提示，完成句子。69-72小题，每空一词，含缩略词。 45. Fan Zhendong beat the Japanese player in the ping-pong game.（变为一般疑问句） ________ Fan Zhendong ________ the Japanese player in the ping-pong game? 【答案】 ①. Did ②. beat 【解析】 【详解】句意：樊振东在乒乓球比赛中打败了日本选手。变为一般疑问句：樊振东在乒乓球比赛中打败了日本选手吗？根据“Fan Zhendong beat Japanese player in the ping-pong game.”可知，该句时态为一般过去时，且谓语动词为实义动词beat，变为一般疑问句时，需要借助助动词did，并将其置于句首，首字母大写，同时谓语动词beat用原形。故填Did；beat。 46. I was cooking dinner when the phone rang. (对划线部分提问) ________ ________ you doing when the phone rang? 【答案】 ①. What ②. were 【解析】 【详解】句意：电话铃响时，我正在做晚饭。对过去进行时的动作was cooking dinner提问，需用疑问词What询问“做什么”；原句主语是I，提问时第二人称you搭配过去进行时的be动词were，遵循“What + were + 主语 + doing + 其他”结构。故填What；were。 47. Jenny is in Beijing. She arrived there five days ago. (改为同义句) Jenny ________ ________ in Beijing for five days. 【答案】 ①. has ②. been 【解析】 【详解】句意：Jenny在北京。她五天前到达那里。原句强调“五天前到达”这一过去动作，同义句需表达“已经在北京待了五天”这一持续状态。“for five days”是现在完成时的标志性时间状语，且谓语动词需用延续性动词。“arrive”是短暂性动词，其对应的延续性表达为“be in”。现在完成时的结构为 “have/has + 过去分词”，主语Jenny是第三人称单数，所以用“has been”。故填has been。 48. 直到孩子睡着了，她才离开房间。（完成译句） She ________ leave the room ________ the child fell asleep. 【答案】 ①. didn’t ②. until 【解析】 【详解】本句为强调句型，表示“直到……才……”的结构。根据“the child fell asleep”可知时态为一般过去时，用否定句didn’t和until引导时间状语从句；主句谓语为didn’t leave，until引导的时间状语从句使用一般过去时fell asleep。故填didn’t；until。 49. go, so, rained, we, heavily, couldn’t, it, that, out (连词成句) ____________________________________________. 【答案】It rained so heavily that we couldn’t go out 【解析】 【详解】根据所给单词和语境可知应用so...that...句型表示“如此……以至于……”，分析所给单词，it作主语，rained作谓语，so heavily修饰谓语动词，that引导结果状语从句，从句中we作主语，couldn’t go out作谓语。故填It rained so heavily that we couldn’t go out “雨下得如此大，以至于我们不能出去”。 Ⅷ. 读写综合。（每小题2.5分，共10分） 阅读下面短文，提取文本关键信息完成下面表格内容。 Research shows that helping others makes us happier. The key is to find the way that works for you. Giving can feel great. And the more you give, the more happiness you will get. Ready to start? Follow these tips. The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver than the gift of money. We don’t have the same amount of money, but we all have time. We can give some of our time to help others—whether a few minutes each day, or a few days each year. Sometimes, the best way to help is to listen. If a friend is upset, let them talk without interrupting (打断), and say things like, “I’m here for you.” You can show your friendliness in this way and it can make your friend feel less lonely. Ask your friends and family to join you. With more help, we can make bigger differences! “Always giving to others can make you feel exhausted (筋疲力尽的),” says expert Adam Grant. It’s great to help others, but don’t forget about yourself! Just like you need to recharge (充电) your phone to keep it working, you need to think about your own feelings, and what you need to keep helping others happily and healthily. Remember, you are important, too! Don’t wait to help others—start now! Look for one small act of kindness to do this week. You could hold the door for others or help a neighbor carry bags.

Be a good listener.##Listen to others. 52. care for yourself##look after yourself##take care of yourself 53. small things##small actions##something small 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了帮助他人能让人更快乐，并给出了具体的助人建议，包括付出时间、学会倾听、鼓励他人参与、关注自身以及立即行动等。 【50题详解】 根据“The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver than the gift of money.”可知，给予时间比给予金钱更有价值，结合空后than可知，空处应填比较级形式，故填more valuable/more important。 【51题详解】 根据“Sometimes, the best way to help is to listen. If a friend is upset, let them talk without interrupting...”可知，此处讲是帮助他人的一个方法是倾听，要求不超过4个单词，故填Be a good listener./Listen to others. 【52题详解】 根据“It’s great to help others, but don’t forget about yourself!... you need to think about your own feelings...”可知，在帮助他人时要记得关注自己，结合空前remember to可知，空处需填动词短语，不超过4个单词，故填care for yourself/look after yourself/take care of yourself。 【53题详解】 根据“Look for one small act of kindness to do this week. You could hold the door for others or help a neighbor carry bags.

Beijing , with a long history and rich culture, is the capital of China. We stayed there for five days. During the trip, we visited the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, and the Forbidden City. Climbing the Great Wall was challenging but exciting—the view from the top was breathtaking! We also tried Beijing duck, a famous local dish, which was delicious. What made this trip special was not just the sights but also what I learned. I realized how amazing ancient Chinese buildings are. Standing in the Forbidden City, I felt proud of my country’s history. If you go to Beijing, don’t miss the Great Wall at sunrise—it’s magical! Also, try the street food in Wangfujing.

The Basket Building (USA): What a big basket! This is the world’s largest Basket Building. The seven-floor office building looks exactly like a huge basket. It took two years to finish the building in 1997. It’s about 16,722 square meters in size. The most interesting part is that the people inside sell real baskets! Maybe their baskets sell very well! The Crooked House (Poland): This is a shopping center in Poland. It was built in 2004. It’s about 4,000 square meters in size. With its green roof, yellow walls, and colorful glass windows, it looks like a house from the fairy tale or a melting (融化的) ice-cream on a sunny day. It is one of Europe’s most unusual buildings and has attracted thousands of tourists to see its crazy shape every year. Dubai Frame (Dubai): This building looks like a picture frame (框). The Dubai Frame stands 150 meters tall, and weighs 9,900 tons (吨). More than 15,000 square meters of gold-coloured stainless steel (不锈钢) covers Dubai Frame. There is a museum on the first floor. It shows the city’s history. On the top of the building, there is a bridge. People can see the city from a glass window. 21. How large is the Basket Building? A. It’s about 150 meters tall. B. It’s about 16,722 meters tall. C. It’s about 4,000 square meters in size. D. It’s about 16,722 square meters in size. 22. What do we know about the Dubai Frame? A. It was built in 2004. B.

They are historical buildings. C. They are special in shapes. D. They are in the same country. B After running away from the land of small people, my ship was caught in a terrible storm and hit a rocky shore (岸). When I woke up, I found myself in a country where everything was so huge! The grass was as tall as forest trees, and ants were the size of dogs. Suddenly, the earth began to tremble --- a farmer, as tall as a mountain, walked up to me! To my surprise, he picked me up gently with two fingers and put me in his pocket. The farmer carried me to his house. His children shouted with excitement, thinking I was a living toy. The youngest boy tried to grab (抓住) me, but I quickly cried, “Please, kind sir!” The family were surprised. “It speaks!” said the farmer’s wife. From that day, they called me “Grildrig” (meaning “little doll”). The farmer’s daughter, Glumdalclitch, a kind girl of nine, became my protector. She made small clothes for me and taught me their language. One day, the farmer said, “Grildrig should make money!” He built a wooden stage (舞台) and took me to the market. People paid money to watch me perform. The farmer asked me to work so hard that I had almost no rest. Before long, the queen (女王) herself sent for me. At the palace (王宫), I ate from golden plates and slept on silk cushions (垫子). But I felt that danger was somewhere: a monkey once carried me to the rooftop (屋顶), and teacups almost drowned (淹死) me. I missed home but saw no way to run away. (Selected from Gulliver’s Travels) 24. What did Gulliver think of the country when he arrived there? A. It was very small and quiet. B.

Gulliver enjoyed his rich life in the palace. D. The farmer was interested in making money. C In May, 2025, the Smithsonian’s National Museum returned the Zidanku Silk Manuscripts (子弹库帛书) to China. These texts, written on silk, are the oldest surviving (现存的) books in China and the only known manuscripts from the Warring States Period (475—221 BC) (战国时期). The manuscripts were found in 1942 in a tomb (坟墓) in Changsha, Hunan. However, they were stolen (偷) and taken to the US in 1946. Many people kept asking for their return because they knew how important they were to China. After many years of effort (努力), two parts of the manuscripts, Wuxing Ling (五行令) and Gongshou Zhan (攻守占), finally returned home. The manuscripts are made up of three parts: The first part, Sishi Ling (四时令) describes what people should do during different seasons. The second part, Wuxing Ling includes a chart (图表) and text about the five elements (元素): wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. It tells people what they should or should not do each month. The third part, Gongshou Zhan is about war. It tells the best directions and the best time to fight. For years, experts studied these texts, uncovering their secrets. They show how ancient Chinese people understood nature, war, and time. Their return marks a big success in getting cultural heritage back and shows China’s growing ability to protect its history. The two returned parts will be shown at the National Museum of China in July 2025. China will also continue to bring back the final missing part, Sishi Ling. As experts say, “This success proves that a weak nation loses treasures; a strong one revives (复兴) culture.” 28. How long have Wuxing Ling and Gongshou Zhan been abroad before returning to China? A. 69 years. B. 79 years. C. 83 years. D. Over 2,000 years. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. The manuscripts were kept in a museum before the year 1942. B. All three parts of the manuscripts have been returned to China. C. The return of cultural treasures shows China is getting stronger. D. Sishi Ling describes what people should or should not do each month. 30. How does the writer start this passage? A. By describing a recent event. B. By listing dates and numbers. C. By comparing past and present China. D. By telling a story about the Manuscripts. 31. What’s the best title of this passage? A. China Gets Back Its Oldest Silk Book B. Ancient Chinese Books Found in a Tomb C. How to Protect the Old Silk Manuscripts D. The History of Silk Manuscripts in China D ①You might see everything you see or hear on the Internet makes you more sure of what you already think. If this happens, be careful! You might be in something called an information cocoon (茧房) —a place where your own ideas keep coming back to you. ②This isn’t something new. Think about ancient times when people sat around a campfire. They only shared stories that their group believed and agreed with. Today, the Internet and social media are like our modern campfire. They connect people all over the world. But just like the old campfire, they also let people share and hear the ideas they already like. ③You might have noticed that social media ads (广告) seem to know what you like. This happens because of a computer program called algorithms (算法). Algorithms are like sets of rules that help computers do things. Every time you click (点击) likes or share something, you leave a “digital footprint (数字脚印)”. This helps algorithms learn what you like. Then they show you more of the same kind of content (内容). ④Information cocoons can make you feel good, but they also have some bad results. ⑤When you only see similar opinions, it’s hard to accept different views. This can make it hard for us to understand people who think differently. ⑥Information cocoons can also lead to more arguments and worries among people. This often makes different groups in society disagree with or do not trust each other even more. ▲ ⑦The good news is that there are ways to break out of the information cocoon. One important thing is to look for different kinds of information. Also, it’s important to learn how to think critically (批判地). This means checking the facts and being open to changing your mind. ⑧By doing these things, you can break out of the information cocoon and see a wider world! 32. Why does the writer mention “algorithms” in Paragraph 3? A. To say algorithms should not be used on social media. B. To talk about how algorithms can be bad for people. C. To tell the story of how algorithms were invented. D. To explain how social media ads show what you like. 33. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ? A. But the Internet can also be good. B. Some think algorithms are not safe to use. C. This is why we need to solve this problem. D. Many people like seeing the same things online. 34. What’s the best structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 35. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the information cocoon? A. Serious and angry. B. Worried but hopeful. C. Happy and encouraging. D. Scared but meaningful.

To encourage her and help with her training, Zhao stayed with her every day. After about 18 months of hard training, Yin gave her first performance at an event in Nanchong.

And the more you give, the more happiness you will get. Ready to start? Follow these tips. The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver than the gift of money. We don’t have the same amount of money, but we all have time. We can give some of our time to help others—whether a few minutes each day, or a few days each year. Sometimes, the best way to help is to listen. If a friend is upset, let them talk without interrupting (打断), and say things like, “I’m here for you.” You can show your friendliness in this way and it can make your friend feel less lonely. Ask your friends and family to join you. With more help, we can make bigger differences! “Always giving to others can make you feel exhausted (筋疲力尽的),” says expert Adam Grant. It’s great to help others, but don’t forget about yourself! Just like you need to recharge (充电) your phone to keep it working, you need to think about your own feelings, and what you need to keep helping others happily and healthily. Remember, you are important, too! Don’t wait to help others—start now! Look for one small act of kindness to do this week. You could hold the door for others or help a neighbor carry bags.
