Before traveling to the capital, they read social media posts offering advice on how to get a good place to watch the ceremony. They arrived at Tian’anmen Square just after midnight on that day, although the ceremony that day was scheduled (计划) to begin at 5:22 a.m. However, Cheng was surprised to see that a large crowd of young people had formed a line to watch the ceremony long before she and her friends arrived. After waiting in line for about four and a half hours, the crowd went through a security (安全) check at around 4:30 a.m. The first group of people to enter Tian’anmen Square started running towards the flag post as fast as they could. Cheng said she and those around her were surprised to see such a scene, which she keeps replaying in her mind.

Everywhere they went, the local people treated them with love and kindness. In Harbin, they tried local food and watched fireworks in the snow. They even went to an outpost (前哨) in Mohe, the northernmost place of China. There, they sang the national anthem (国歌). The police officers also made snow sculptures (雕塑) and snowmen for the children. The parents of these children are thankful for the support they have received from people online and friends in Northeast China. The parents chose orange jackets for safety reasons, and the care from local people and people online made them feel warm.

Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together,” (但愿人长久，千里共蝉娟) wrote Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe. The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar (阴历). On this day, people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops were harvested during that period. Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration. The Mid-Autumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon. The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion (团聚).

They provide some books for children to read and ask them to report back when returning to school. People who support it say it helps kids with their study because they continue to learn and practise their reading skills. But others say otherwise. They believe forcing (强迫) kids to read during their time off from school may lead to a bad result. Yes kids need to keep reading No reading shouldn’t be forced It’s important for children to read over the summer. Scientists have found that during the long break, student lose some of the skills they learned during the school year and can fall behind. Teachers often spend the first weeks of school getting students to catch up again. It has been shown that having kids read over the summer makes the transition (过渡) easier. Besides, summer is the perfect time to get into the world of books. And when they return in autumn, they’ll know more about the world. What children read, and when they read, should be up to them. A love of reading is more likely to develop when it’s not forced. Required (强制的) summer reading may make kids tired. Study has shown that when kids learn for their own reasons, not because they have to, they learn better. Students will rest better and be ready to learn after a summer spent (having fun and doing what they like. 1．How do many teachers ask students to read during summer holiday? 2．How do both the two ideas (Yes and No) help students with their new term? 3．Which reading plan is more suitable for you, the one from your teachers or the one made by yourself? Why? (Do not use the sentences in the passage) When I was 5 years old, I went to the USA with my mom. I can still remember the first Halloween holiday I had in the USA． On the morning of Halloween, we paid a visit to a pumpkin (南瓜) farm. Each of us brought a pumpkin to school with us. I used the pumpkin to make a lantern which had two triangle eyes and a scary mouth. In the afternoon, we put on the Halloween costumes and went on parade in school. Some of the costumes were nice, but some of them looked scary. I chose to wear a suit of Superman’s clothes. I did a lot of things that day, but the part I liked best was “trick or treat” in the evening. After dinner, I went outside with an empty bag. I hoped to get a lot of candies from people. At first, I was a bit nervous, so when I knocked at the door, my heart was beating very fast. A lady came out, and I said carefully to her, “Trick or treat.” My voice was very low, and even myself could hardly hear it. To my surprise, the lady was so kind to give me two candy bars, and I was so excited, thanked the lady and moved on. I couldn’t remember how many houses I visited, but I could remember how many candies I got—I got 91 candies that day, and I was so proud of myself. What a happy Halloween I had! And I wish we could have a Halloween every month! 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1．When did the writer go to the USA with his or her mother? 2．Where did they visit on the morning of Halloween? 3．What did the writer wear on the afternoon of Halloween? 4．What did the writer take when he or she went outside after dinner? 5．What should the kids do in the game “trick or treat” ? 能力综合实践5篇 Have you heard about “Survival (生存) Holidays”? “Survival Holidays” is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities. Now about 1,100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents. The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games, but “Survival Holidays” can change them a lot. Is “Survival Holidays” a wonderful idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing (打扰) them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled (控制) by adults, but children don’t know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them. Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives. 1．Is “Survival Holidays” for children or parents? 2．Why do people like “Survival Holidays”? 3．What do the children in big cities usually do? 4．What can children learn in the survival activities? （list at least two） 5．Would you like to join in “Survival Holidays”?

This is Fruit Science Summer Camp made by the Seattle City Park. Belinda Chin works for the Seattle City Park and helps people get good food. She says they are doing this camp in the city because some people here don’t have enough space to grow food. Sometimes at the camp, they go to the kitchen in the building to make food.

Watch TV, play computer games, or go outside to relax. Here’s a good example. Tim and Kerry Meek are both teachers. They live in the UK with their two daughters: eleven-year-old Amy and nine-year-old Ella. Recently, the Meek family has become the focus (焦点) of the whole country after they completed 100 different outdoor activities in one year. The Meek couple didn’t want their children to spend all their free time in front of the TV and become “couch potatoes”. So about one year ago, the Meeks decided that watching TV and playing computer games were not permitted. Instead, they set 100 tasks for the two girls to do outside. Although Mr. and Mrs. Meek are not outdoor activity fans, but they took part in all the activities to encourage their daughters. It turns out that the two sisters really had a good time joining in the activities. Every holiday and weekend, whether it’s sunny, rainy or snowy, the Meeks would go out to try the activities on their list, including hiking, sailing, climbing, skiing, and so on. The two little girls not only had a wonderful time, but also learned a lot of skills from the activities. They were even able to stand up in front of their school to give a talk for charity. “Our friends spend a lot of their free time doing things which are harmful to their health. Luckily, we’ve had the chance to experience something different. Amy and Ella also helped their parents to draw up a new list of challenges for the next 12 months. 1．Why did the Meeks become the focus of the UK? 2．How did the Meek couple encourage their girls to do activities? 3．When did the Meeks go out to do the activities? 4．What did the two little girls learn from the activities? 5．What should we do to keep healthy in our free time?

So about one year ago, the Meeks decided that watching TV and playing computer games were not permitted. Instead, they set 100 tasks for the two girls to do outside. Although Mr. and Mrs. Meek are not outdoor activity fans, but they took part in all the activities to encourage their daughters. It turns out that the two sisters really had a good time joining in the activities. Every holiday and weekend, whether it’s sunny, rainy or snowy, the Meeks would go out to try the activities on their list, including hiking, sailing, climbing, skiing, and so on. The two little girls not only had a wonderful time, but also learned a lot of skills from the activities. They were even able to stand up in front of their school to give a talk for charity. “Our friends spend a lot of their free time doing things which are harmful to their health. Luckily, we’ve had the chance to experience something different. Amy and Ella also helped their parents to draw up a new list of challenges for the next 12 months. 1．Why did the Meeks become the focus of the UK? 2．How did the Meek couple encourage their girls to do activities? 3．When did the Meeks go out to do the activities? 4．What did the two little girls learn from the activities? 5．What should we do to keep healthy in our free time?
