Did you know most people check their phones over 50 times a day? Many teens feel nervous when they don’t have their phones nearby. Even worse, phones sometimes make us miss what’s happening right around us. Here’s how to take control without giving up your phone completely. ②A good way to use your phone less is to pick a special time each day. Choose 30 minutes after school just for phone use. During this time, really focus on what you’re doing—watch videos, message friends, or play games. But when time’s up, put your phone away. ③Next, fight those noisy dings and buzzes. Turn off all notifications (通知) except for important ones. Imagine this: Your phone stays quiet during homework hours, but still rings if your mom needs you. This simple change reduces the brain’s ideas of “check it now”. Without these, you’ll feel less pulled to check your phone every minute. ④Create places where phones aren’t allowed. Keep your phone out of these three places: the dinner table—talk to family instead, your bed—charge (充电) it in the kitchen overnight, and study areas. Try the “Doorway Method”: leave your phone by the front door when you get home, and only check it there when truly needed. If reaching for your phone requires walking downstairs, you’ll think twice. ⑤Scientists found that about 1/3 of phone time is just habit, not something we truly enjoy. That’s why the methods mentioned above. By making such small changes, you can save over 2 hours daily! Use that extra time to read, play outside, or try a new hobby. ⑥Remember what an old Greek teacher once said, “Real freedom comes from controlling yourself.” Phones are tools, not bosses. Start small: Try one tip this week. Your phone will still be there, but you’ll be in charge. 42. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. Turning off notifications. B. Using the doorway trick. C. Setting special phone time. D. Creating phone-free places. 43. What is the main benefit of the “Doorway Method”? A. Charging your phone faster. B. Avoiding leaving your phone at the door. C. Remembering where your phone is. D. Reducing the times you check your phone. 44. Why does the article mention the Greek teacher’s words? A. To advise people to plan time freely. B.

I told him that he should stop thinking about it for the moment. A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island under the sea. When returned to the Nautilus, we were tired but amazed by what we had seen during the trip. It was an amazing experience. When we entered the Torres Strait, the Nautilus hit a reef and stopped. We had to wait for the high tide to lift the Nautilus off the reef. We three were allowed to use Captain Nemo’s dinghy to go onto the island. We were excited. When we returned to the island the next day, we were attacked by savages. About one hundred savages followed us and tried to come into the ship. Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hands on the rail, they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock. One day, Captain Nemo asked me to follow him to another room and help one of his men. A man lay on a bed with a very bad head wound. I looked at it. “What happened?” Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” “He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo’s eyes, and he asked me to leave. We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks. I realized that I did not really want to escape. 56. What does the underlined word “fortune” mean in English? ______________________________ 57. What does the underlined “it” refer to? ______________________________ 58. Why did the savages fall back and run away when they put their hands on the rail? ______________________________ 59. According to the passage, how many times did “I” leave the Nautilus? ______________________________ 60. What do you think of Captain Nemo according to this passage? ______________________________ 【答案】56. A large amount of money./(A lot of ) Money./Much money./Millions of dollars. 57. To escape./(Trying) to find a way to escape. 58. (Because) Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail./Because they received an electric shock. 59. Three (times). 60. Rich, clever, and cared for his men. (Any reasonable answer is OK) 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者一行人和船长Nemo周游海底的故事。 【56题详解】 根据“‘It must have cost a fortune!’ ‘Millions of dollars,’ he replied.”可知，此处划线部分fortune指一大笔钱。故填A large amount of money./(A lot of ) Money./Much money./Millions of dollars. 【57题详解】 根据“but Ned was still interested in trying to find a way to escape. I told him that he should stop thinking about it for the moment.”可知，Ned一直想要逃跑，我告诉他现在不是想这个的时候，此处it指代上文提到的“trying to find a way to escape”。故填To escape./(Trying) to find a way to escape. 【58题详解】 根据“When they put their hands on the rail, they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.”可知，当他们把手放在栏杆上时他们都向后倒了然后逃跑了，因为Nemo船长给铁轨通了电，任何触碰它的人都会受到电击。故填(Because) Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail./Because they received an electric shock. 【59题详解】 根据“A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island under the sea”“We three were allowed to use Captain Nemo’s dinghy to go onto the island.”及“We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks.”可知，作者一共离开Nautilus三次。故填Three (times). 【60题详解】 开放性试题，答案不唯一，合理即可。参考答案为：Rich, clever, and cared for his men. 七、缺词填空（共10空；每空1分，计10分） 根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整，完整地写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。（每空一词） A tale of light and shadow Chinese shadow puppetry (皮影戏) ,or shadow play, is probably one of the most ancient arts using light and shadow.

They have different shapes and fall in four different ways. By watching how they “dance”, we can learn the weather conditions (状况). It’s hard to see snowflakes dancing with the naked eye (裸眼). Scientists can use special cameras to watch them. Weathermen can use radars (雷达) to study these dances to learn about the weather. How they dance: What’s the weather like? Fall in a line: They fall slowly. Zigzag (之字形路线): They shake a little back and forth (前后). Snowflakes dancing like this may melt and become rain. Spin: They fall fast. Spin and zigzag: They bump into (撞上) each other and become bigger ones. Snowflakes falling in these ways might bring a lot of snow. 31. What can we learn by watching snowflakes “dance”? A The size of the snowflakes. B. The weather conditions. C. The colour of the snowflakes. D. The temperature of the snowflakes. 32. What might happen if snowflakes spin and zigzag? A. They will fall very slowly. B. They will become smaller. C. They might bring a lot of snow. D. They will melt and become rain. 33. How do scientists watch snowflakes “dance”? A. By using radars. B. By using robots. C. By using their naked eyes. D. By using special cameras. B On January 28, 2025, a special performance called YangBOT amazed audiences at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala China’s most watched TV show. Directed by famous filmmaker Zhang Yimou, the show mixed traditional Chinese Yangko dance with modern robot technology. In the performance, humanoid robots (robots shaped like humans) dressed in colorful costumes danced Yangko, a joyful folk dance from northern China often seen during festival. They spun handkerchiefs instantly and formed a creative group pattern. These robots were developed by Unitree (宇树科技), a Chinese robotics company. This was not Untre’s first success—in 2021, their robot cows named “Ben Ben” danced as backup for singer Andy Lau. The robots learned dance moves through AI and used laser navigation to move safely on the uneven stage, their strong joints (like knees with 360 N·m power) helped them balance perfectly during fast steps. Zhang Yimou explained, “These innovations aren’t just for fun—it shows how technology can bring new life to traditions.” Thanks to these innovations, the robots won the hearts of millions. On social media, topics like “Robots Yangko” trended quickly. Young viewers called it “cool” while older audiences loved its humor and festive spirit.

Ben Weather staff was in the vegetable garden.

The robin was hopping around on the ground. Mary was watching him when she saw something in the earth. She picked it up. It was an old key. “The key to the secret garden!” she whispered excitedly.

Ben’s Day in the Garden D ①We all love our phones, but using them too much can cause problems. Did you know most people check their phones over 50 times a day? Many teens feel nervous when they don’t have their phones nearby. Even worse, phones sometimes make us miss what’s happening right around us. Here’s how to take control without giving up your phone completely. ②A good way to use your phone less is to pick a special time each day. Choose 30 minutes after school just for phone use. During this time, really focus on what you’re doing—watch videos, message friends, or play games. But when time’s up, put your phone away. ③Next, fight those noisy dings and buzzes. Turn off all notifications (通知) except for important ones. Imagine this: Your phone stays quiet during homework hours, but still rings if your mom needs you. This simple change reduces the brain’s ideas of “check it now”. Without these, you’ll feel less pulled to check your phone every minute. ④Create places where phones aren’t allowed. Keep your phone out of these three places: the dinner table—talk to family instead, your bed—charge (充电) it in the kitchen overnight, and study areas. Try the “Doorway Method”: leave your phone by the front door when you get home, and only check it there when truly needed. If reaching for your phone requires walking downstairs, you’ll think twice. ⑤Scientists found that about 1/3 of phone time is just habit, not something we truly enjoy. That’s why the methods mentioned above. By making such small changes, you can save over 2 hours daily! Use that extra time to read, play outside, or try a new hobby. ⑥Remember what an old Greek teacher once said, “Real freedom comes from controlling yourself.” Phones are tools, not bosses. Start small: Try one tip this week. Your phone will still be there, but you’ll be in charge. 42. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. Turning off notifications. B. Using the doorway trick. C. Setting special phone time. D. Creating phone-free places. 43. What is the main benefit of the “Doorway Method”? A. Charging your phone faster. B. Avoiding leaving your phone at the door. C. Remembering where your phone is. D. Reducing the times you check your phone. 44. Why does the article mention the Greek teacher’s words? A. To advise people to plan time freely. B. To encourage students to try a new hobby. C. To explain the importance of managing oneself well. D. To compare ancient wisdom and modern technology. 45.

I told him that he should stop thinking about it for the moment. A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island under the sea. When returned to the Nautilus, we were tired but amazed by what we had seen during the trip. It was an amazing experience. When we entered the Torres Strait, the Nautilus hit a reef and stopped. We had to wait for the high tide to lift the Nautilus off the reef. We three were allowed to use Captain Nemo’s dinghy to go onto the island. We were excited. When we returned to the island the next day, we were attacked by savages. About one hundred savages followed us and tried to come into the ship. Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hands on the rail, they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock. One day, Captain Nemo asked me to follow him to another room and help one of his men. A man lay on a bed with a very bad head wound. I looked at it. “What happened?” Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” “He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo’s eyes, and he asked me to leave. We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks. I realized that I did not really want to escape. 56.
