Li Mei’s parents told her the tradition of cleaning the house before the New Year. They believed that sweeping away the old and making everything clean and tidy would bring good luck and happiness to their family. Li Mei wanted to help and make her parents happy. She decided to start by cleaning her own room. On a sunny winter morning, Li Mei started to work. She made her bed first, and then looked through her clothes. She put aside (放在一旁) the ones that were too small for her. She wanted to give them to people in need. She also found a small beautiful cheongsam (旗袍). Her grandmother made it for her. Li Mei used to wear it for the Chinese New Year celebrations, and she hoped it would bring joy to someone else. Then, she folded the rest of her clothes. After that, she organized her books and cleaned the bookcases. She found many special things that she had forgotten about. Old pictures reminded her of happy times, like birthday celebrations (庆祝活动) and interesting trips. Cards and letters from her friends made her miss them so much. With her room nearly clean, Li Mei swept and cleaned the floor. Later that day, when Li Mei’s parents came home from work, they were happy about Li Mei’s hard work. Together, they cleaned the rest of the house. On the night before the Chinese New Year, Li Mei’s family had an enjoyable dinner. Li Mei felt the happiness and good luck around them. 21.

Doing a funny housework. C ①It is a good idea to make a list (清单) before you go shopping. Some people do not like to make a shopping list because it takes time. However there are many reasons why you should make one. ②Firstly, a shopping list helps you to save (节约) time. When you write the list, you should put the things in different groups. For example, you could write down all the fruit and vegetables in one column (栏). In the next column, you could write down all the meat. Do the same for other things. Keeping your list organized will help you shop faster. ③Secondly, a shopping list helps you not to forget anything. You would not want to get home from the store and find you didn’t buy the things you needed. A shopping list helps you to remember everything you want to buy. ④A shopping list can also help you to save money. Without a list you might not remember if you have enough milk at home. You might buy the milk as you think you don’t have any. When you get home, you would see you already have a full bottle of milk. Then the extra (额外的) milk might go to waste. If you make a list, you will not buy the things you do not need. ⑤Although it will take you a few minutes to write out a shopping list, it is worth (值得) your time. 26. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question. C. By providing an example. D. By giving an opinion. 27. What might happen if you don’t organize your shopping list into groups? A. You might forget to buy something. B. You could spend more time moving around the supermarket. C. You might end up buying things you don’t need. D. You could save more money. 28. Which one is NOT the reason to make a shopping list? A. Improving our life. B. Saving our time. C. Saving our money. D. Remembering what to buy. 29. What’s the structure of the text? (P=Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 30. What’s the best title for the text? A. How to make a shopping list. B. Take time to buy what you need. C. Importance to make a shopping list. D. Making a shopping list is a waste of time. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从文后所列选项中，选出最佳选项填入对应空白处，便短文通顺、连贯。（选项中有一项多余） Different people have different opinions.

As teenagers, it’s necessary to take part in labor activities. I often take part in two labor activities. One is cleaning the classroom with my classmates after school, and the other is doing chores at home, like washing dishes and sweeping the floor. From these activities, I’ve learned a lot. Cleaning the classroom teaches me the importance of teamwork—we finish faster when everyone helps. Doing chores makes me more thankful for my parents’ hard work. It also develops my ability to take care of myself. I have some advice. First, we should keep a balance between labor and study. Second, we should be active and help each other during activities. Let’s all take part in labor to grow better! 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
