Now how about a virtual visit to stolen art? In order to make public realize the culture heritage (遗产) protection, UNESCO is building the world’s first virtual museum of stolen cultural artifacts (文物). “Behind every stolen work lies a piece of history,” said UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay. “We want to place these works back in the spotlight so that more people can notice them.” The virtual museum works as an educational tool. It will offer visitors 3D images of stolen artifacts. There will also be detailed information about their history. The project will be designed by Francis Kere. The architect won the famous Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2022. When it is opened in 2025, visitors can see more than 600 pieces of artifacts in the museum. One of the most important items is a 3rd-century alabaster stone inscription. It was taken from Awwam temple in Yemen. Visitors will also be able to see an ivory relief (象牙浮雕) from the 7th century BC． The work of a lion attacking a man was stolen from the Baghdad Museum. A green stone mask looted from the Maya site of Rio Azul will also be on display. “These are objects that once existed (存在), but we don’t know where they are,” said Ernesto Ottone. He is UNESCO’s assistant director’ general for culture. “The museum is out of people’s imagination.” Azoulay said. “The presentation of each artwork is a deep dive (深入研究) into its universe, its culture, and the society that produced it,” she added.

Take the band’s 2022 world tour as an example. They encouraged their fans to travel to the shows by bus or on foot. At the shows, the band set up special bikes and dance floors. The fans could produce electricity (电能) by riding the bikes or dancing on the floors on their own. This year, Coldplay is continuing to go green. The band released (发行) its tenth album (专辑)，Moon Music, on October 4. The records (唱片) are made from plastic waste. Coldplay has worked closely with Ocean Cleanup to make these records. The Dutch (荷兰的) group uses large fences (围栏) and special boats to clean up plastic waste in rivers and oceans. It puts the fences in many different rivers. The fences let the water flow through and stop the rubbish at the same time. Coldplay supports Ocean Cleanup’s work. It often donates money to Ocean Cleanup. What kind of plastic waste makes good records? The group uses PET, a high-quality plastic. The plastic waste has to be very clean. Ocean Cleanup collects plastic waste from the river Rio Las Vacas, because it meets their needs. The plastic waste is separated and mixed. Then, it is tested and used to make the records. These records have good sound quality. Each record is about 140 grams in weight. One record is made from nine old PET plastic bottles. In fact, when a band makes a new record, it usually produces tons of new plastic. With the help of Ocean Cleanup, Coldplay has greatly cut down on this production!

Peer pressure (压力) is when one or more friends or people your own age make you feel stressed to do something. You feel as if you have to do that thing because your peers are doing it,or are trying to make you do it. Good peer pressure is when you feel pressured to do something good. You might do something good for you, for others, or for the environment. Bad peer pressure is when you feel pressured to do something you shouldn’t do. For example, it might be something that goes against rules, something dangerous, or something bad for your health. It might also be something that goes against your values, or what you believe is good or right. If a friend tries to pressure you to do something, you might feel you should do it to please your friend. You might even feel that the person will not be your friend if you do not do it. People often want to be accepted by their peers and not feel as if they stand out because they are different in some way. Sometimes people are afraid others will make fun of them if they do not do what everyone else is doing. Here are some questions to ask yourself when you feel peer pressure to do something: · Could I get into trouble for doing this? · Might doing this hurt myself or another person, or hurt someone’s feelings? · Does this go against my values? · Will I feel sorry or embarrassed if my family, teachers, or others find out about it? If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, you are feeling bad peer pressure. If people keep pressuring you, say, “I do not want to talk about it anymore.” Then walk away and feel proud that you made a good decision. Dealing with peer pressure What Peer pressure comes when your friends or people of your age make you feel 21   to complete something you wouldn’t otherwise do. It can be both positive and negative.

Think back to childhood when holidays seemed to last forever and you attended a school for what felt like decades. Now consider last year, by contrast, and it probably raced by. As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age—and, for people in their 70s, a year can flash by what seems like days. “Where did the time go?” we wonder. The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information. Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty (新奇)—the first time you rode a bike, had a romance, get a job—but, as we get older, things get more routine (常规). You can test this out by remembering a recent experience of novelty in your life, such as travel. A few years back, I went skiing for the first time, and that four-day trip still feels “long”. But I might have difficulty noticing a four-day period in my ordinary life. One way that can work things out, then, is easy to see: try lots of new things. Travel more, if you can, and to strange places. Try new hobbies and meet new people—you’ll be using your brain with a lot of efforts, and the result will be a life that feels longer, more meaningful. But small changes work, too: even making a change in the route (路线) you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels or choosing a different place to buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have an influence on your feelings. But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling (令人满意的) life requires routine: you can’t build deep relationships, or rise through the ranks at work if you always make new friends or get new jobs or even have new husbands or wives. That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate (冥想). Even a few minutes a day will get you to have better concentration (专注), and the better you get at concentrating, and the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter how boring. You need to believe in yourself. You’ll be making your whole life a little more novel (新颖的). You’ll be more present and time will pass less quickly; in fact, you’ll make your life longer—without magic pills or creative medical technology. How to stop time 31 up The problem It is not a common truth to anyone who is 32 25 years old that time seems to go faster as life goes on. The 33 you get, the faster time races by. The 34 of the problem When things become usual in our life, it might be 35 for you to pay attention to them and so on time passes by. So, experiencing something fresh and special can make you 36 things longer. Advice on how to solve the problem ●It takes you a lot of efforts to use your brain when trying new things, making you feel that your life is longer and 37 more to you. ●Changing something a little can also make a 38 to your feelings. ●Learning to meditate helps people 39 their concentration and take in more information from boring experiences. Conclusion Trust yourself. 40 there might be no new medical technology, you can still live a bit more novel life and experiencing slow flow of time actually makes your life longer. 第五套 24-25九上·江苏省镇江市京口区·期中 根据短文内容在文章后表格中的空白处填入一个最恰当的词，每空一词。 There are many colours in nature. But do you know if a colour has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment. First, put two objects (物体) with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Next, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier. Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. The scientist told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength (波长). It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官). According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colours they like and refuse the colours they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colours. Discoveries Examples 41 Colours have 42 You may feel the red box is 43 than the white one, though they have the same weight. Every colour has its own weight in our 44 . The heaviest one is red and the lightest one is 45 . Colours have smell The colour you like can make you    46 . You’ll feel time passes much        47 in the blue room than in the red one. The colour will 48 the body temperature fall if you go from a red room into a blue one. Each colour means a kind of light with a 49 wavelength. The wavelength makes us feel the 50 of the colour. 第六套 24-25九上·江苏省泰州市泰兴市·期中 任务型阅读。阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后的表格。（每空一词） Years ago, I interviewed a successful advertising man. He told me that he dreamed of being a writer in fact. I never believed he could succeed. However, about ten years later, holding up his new book. He has published more than 100 best sellers. His ability to see himself as a writer shows a concept (理念) known as “possible selves”. It describes how people’s future life will be: what they may become, or want to become, or even fear to become. A possible self can bring you far more than daydreams. Your dream can come true if you build a bridge from your “now” self to your possible self. But how do we build that bridge? Here are a few steps you can try. First of all, just take action. If your dream is to succeed in getting a certain job, attend a course and start by taking up that type of work as a hobby or a side job. You should tell yourself that these are the steps you can take to achieve that goal. Secondly, when you have a goal, share it. A study found that the adults who sent weekly progress to a friend completed their goals more easily than those who didn’t share their goals. If more friends know about your goal, it is more possible for you to achieve it. That finding was true for all goals. Finally, get advice from the people who you haven’t spoken to in years. A lot of research has found that when you’re asking for valuable advice, people in your wider network are more likely (可能) to offer it than those closest to you. So, reach out to your weak connections for it when needed.

It is up to you to decide how to react to it. Learn what to do with criticism and lead a happier and more relaxing life. Ask yourself how the criticism will affect (影响) you. Will you lose your job because of the criticism? Will you lose what is important to you because you are criticized? Will life stop existing if your opinions are not accepted? Surely not! So, don’t worry about it. Instead, remember that some criticism actually helps you make some improvements. You absolutely cannot stop what people say. What you can do, however, is to change the way you react to criticism. If you let it upset (扰乱) you, then the blame (过错) is on you. You have the right to decide what to do with the criticism you receive. Don’t be afraid to accept criticism. No one likes to be told that he is wrong. Yet, every single person has, at one time or another, been blamed for something. Realize that it’s normal. You may have received some strong criticism, but it doesn’t mean that you are foolish, or that you don’t have the ability to do something properly. If you are afraid to put your work out for others to see, you’ll never know if you are a capable (能干的) person. Try not to think of it in that way and don’t take it seriously. If you can learn to be optimistic (乐观的), you will remove some stress and nervousness about what people think, thus becoming happier. Consider where the criticism comes from. It may help you step back and examine what causes the criticism. Is the critic just trying to offer constructive criticism? It is much easier to accept correction or guidance from someone that has good intentions. This type of criticism is known as valid (合理的) criticism, because there is a valid point to it. On the other hand, there are critics that offer their advice just to be negative. This is commonly referred to as invalid criticism because it is often not of any use at all. Do your best. If someone doesn’t like what you’ve done, so what? It’s either valid criticism or invalid criticism. But you have the power to decide how you will allow it to affect you. Title: What to do with criticism The author’s opinion about criticism Criticism is a common part of life and it 61 on you to decide your reaction to it. Ways of   62 with criticism ●Understand the effects that criticism has on you: Some criticism won’t make a 63 to you, so don’t worry about it.           Some criticism can help you 64 . ●Change the way you react to criticism and try not to be 65 . ●Accept criticism 66 . Receiving criticism doesn’t mean you are stupid or you are 67 to do things. ●Be optimistic about criticism and you will become less 68 or nervous. ●Think about the 69 for criticism: It may be valid criticism or invalid criticism. Conclusion Take criticism as it is and don’t 70 it to affect you. 第八套 24-25九上·江苏省镇江市区·期中 根据短文内容在文章后表格中的空白处填入一个最恰当的词，每空一词。 Not all teenagers do well at school, but why is that? Those students think the schooling has nothing to do with their lives, such as the kind of work they will do in the future. How can teenage students become more engaged (参与) with their studies? Geoff Mulgan, social commentator and TED speaker, believes the solution (解决方法) is to make learning more relevant. He studied the way of people’s learning in schools around the world, from Australia to Paraguay. His research suggested that a new model of schooling was needed—a model that connects what students are learning to their own plans for their future. “What kind of school would have teenagers fighting to get in, not fighting to stay out?” wondered Mulgan. His answer is the one in which students can learn things by doing. Mulgan helped create the Studio School, a system of publicly funded (资助) schools for 14- to 19-year olds in the U.K. Unlike traditional education, Studio Schools connect knowledge learning with practical training for future jobs. About 80 percent of the courses are done not through sitting in classrooms but through real-life, practical projects which include working at local businesses. Mulgan says that many teenagers “learn best in teams, and they learn best by doing things for real.” This different method is also improved by more personalized (个性化) instruction and support. Studio Schools are smaller than traditional schools—usually around 300 learners—to make sure that every student feels valued. Each student has a “personal coach” who helps him or her develop a plan to meet their learning goals. By having more clear goals, students become more confident of doing well at school. Reports have shown hopeful results. Many traditional-school students who were not getting good grades improved greatly after they moved to a Studio School. Mulgan says Studio Schools are based on a simple idea that turns education on its head. They think teamwork and practical projects are very important while learning. This simple idea is spreading. From just one school in 2010, Studio Schools had grown to more than 40 by 2014. Engaging learners 71 Some students don’t do well at school and they aren’t engaged with their studies 72 they think their schooling isn’t connected with their future lives. Solution By researching 73 people around the world learn, Mulgan believes students need a new model of schooling. It should connect learning to their own 74 plans. • Studio Schools, 75 from the traditional ones, make it possible to connect knowledge learning with practical training. • Instead of sitting in classroom, students in Studio Schools finish most courses through practical projects, 76 working at local businesses. • With 77 learners, Studio Schools provide personal plans for students to meet their learning needs. • Having clearer goals in mind, the confident students make great 78 in their schoolwork. Results • According to a simple idea that teamwork and practical projects really matter, Studio Schools had grown from only one in 2010 to 79 40 by 2014. • From the picture, we can see that students in Studio Schools always wear a 80 face while studying there. 第九套 24-25九上·江苏省镇江市丹徒区·期中 根据短文内容，在文章后表格中的空白处填入一个最恰当的词，每空一词。 It is said that good cooking is an art form. The fact is that it’s much more than that. It’s a way to teach kids necessary skills in daily life. It invites kids to make connections to the outside world by asking, “Where does our food come from?” and “What is the history of this recipe (食谱)?” And it lets them use what they are learning at school in their real life. It also tests the math skills of young cooks. Weighing every thing correctly is a common task in cooking or baking. Cooking also brings science ideas to life. It is a perfect chance for them to learn that oil and water don’t mix. Besides the useful skills, cooking builds personality. It encourages kids to work with others. It also encourages them to be open to foods they might not have tried. Peter,7, had never eaten carrots before testing a recipe with carrots in it. His parents reported that he was so excited about it that he cooked it for his family the next night. Failure in cooking is as important as success, because it helps kids to know that failure is the mother of success. When Helen, an 11-year-old girl, took her cake out of the oven, she was disappointed to find that it was flat as a board. But then she decided to work together with her father to find out what had gone wrong. Both of them kept trying many times until they made the most delicious cake ever in the end. Of course, the best part of cooking with kids is the wonderful memories you make together in the kitchen. This year, Tom and his family have already done a lot of holiday baking, such as their favorite chocolate-chip cookies. Afterwards the kitchen was in a mess but they both felt so happy. Introduction Cooking is more than a form of art. Kids not only learn skills but also 81 themselves to the outside world through cooking.

As AI art generators (生成器) take the world like a storm, many unexpected things happen at the same time. We don’t know whether it is good or not. People are not sure if their works should be thought as art at all. Artists spent a lot of time putting their inner worlds onto these works. AI painters can create more than 1,000 new works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced (批量生产) print of the Mona Lisa isn’t worth as much as the real Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. Should anyone pay for these mass-produced things? And if an artist puts AI masterpieces into the market, what should the price be? AI art is a program learning from the work of artists to create a new piece according to the needs of a human. But who paints the artwork, the machine or its user? And can the original (原始的) artists ask for money for copyright (版权)? Such questions make the problem more difficult to solve, and that also leads to arguments against using AI-generated art at the art market. Once we’ve answered those questions, we can face the really big problem: When an AI-generated painting wins an award, who should the prize be given to? What’s worse, AI art generators copy artist’s works without telling them, which may even break the law. So, next time you use AI technology to produce some works, be careful.

The computer program looks for different kinds of answers in the data. We can find different kinds of information from many sources in big data, such as information from the Internet, schools, companies, and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer. Big data can be helpful in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. The information is then used to improve bus or train services. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teachers can then give these students more help or support so they can achieve success in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand their buyers better. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Some hospitals use big data to predict (预测) if a baby will get sick when he or she is born too early. Then they can take extra steps to protect that baby from illness. However, big data can also bring trouble. For example, it can be used to predict which kinds of people may break the law or hurt others, although they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because people write computer programs to understand big data. People usually think in their own way and then build a thinking model (模式). The thinking model is used to look at and understand the data. Sometimes, the model is helpful to people or businesses. Other times, it can bring trouble to some groups of people.

In order to strengthen his newly born authority and protect the north from the Huns (匈奴人), he ordered to build walls. Therefore, many people believed that it was Emperor Qinshihuang who first built the Great Wall. But researches claimed that before Qin’s Great Wall, the six states had already built their own walls to protect themselves. Emperor Qinshihuang ordered the previous wall sections of different states to be linked together and extended.The Great Wall of Qin seemed like a dragon, which runs from Lintao in the west to Liaodong in the east. Thus, it was named “Wanli Changcheng”. In the Western Han Dynasty, the Huns became more powerful. The Han court started to build more walls on a larger scale in order to guard the frontier. In the west, the wall along the HexiCorridor (河西走廊), Yumenguan Pass, and Yangguan Pass was built. In the north, YanmenguanPass and Niangziguan Pass in Shanxi were set up. Many more sections of the wall extended to Yinshan Mountain and half of the ancient Silk Road was along the Han’s wall. The Northern Wei, Northern Qi and Norhern Zhou Dynasties all built their own sections but on a smaller scale than the walls in the Han Dynasties. The powerful Tang Dynasty saw peace between the northern tribes and central China for a long time, so few Great Wall sections were built in the period. The Ming Dynasty is the peak of wall building in Chinese history. The Ming suffered a lot by troubles from minority tribes. The Ming court, from its first emperor to the last, endlessly built walls in the north. Besides adding many more miles of its own, the Ming emperors ordered enlargement of the walls of previous dynasties into double-line or multi-line walls. For example, out of Yanmenguan Pass were added three big stone walls and 23 small stone walls. The countless walls and watchtowers made the country much safer than before. In the early Qing Dynasty, some sections of the walls were repaired and several sections were extended. This great engineering work stopped in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Owing to its long history, natural disasters and human activities, many parts of the Great Wall are badly damaged and disappearing. Being a world-famous engineering project and seeing the rise and fall of Chinese history, the Great Wall needs us to take action to protect it at once! The 111 of the Great Wall The six states The 112 of building their walls is to protect themselves. Qin Dynasty 113 many people believed that it was Emperor Qinshihuang who first built the Great Qall, researches claimed that before Qin’s Great Wall, the six states had already built their own walls.

The activity is widely held in China’s southern and southeastern areas where there are many rivers and lakes. The dragon boat is a human-powered watercraft that is shaped and decorated like a Chinese dragon. There are usually 18 to 20 people in a standard dragon boat for races. Eating Zongzi has become a necessary part of the Dragon Boat Festival celebration. In China almost every family will eat Zongzi when the festival comes. Zongzi is a rice dumpling usually wrapped in reed leaves, with different fillings. Depending on the location and region in China, the taste of Zongzi is different. Generally speaking, people in southern China prefer the salty one while those in northern China love the sweet one. During the Dragon Boat Festival, people usually hang calamus (菖蒲) and wormwood (艾草) on their doors. This is because when the festival is coming, insects are active during this time and people are easy to catch diseases. It is believed that calamus and wormwood have a pleasant smell and they are used medicinally in China and can help keep away from some diseases. During the Dragon Boat Festival, usually, kids would wear sachets (小香囊) in the countryside areas. It is believed that doing so helps drive out the evil spirit and avoid illness.

Luo Yong, who has worked hard for 9 years as a worker in Nanchang, Jiangxi's capital city, finally managed to find a seat for his son at a well- known primary school in the city. In September, the boy was sent into a crowded first-grade classroom at the primary school which belongs to Nanchang University. “Whatever the cost, I want my son, who was left in the countryside for some years, to live a better life than mine—better schooling and better work in the city,” says 32-year-old Luo. “I was not well educated, and that’s why I can only find low- paid jobs here,” he adds. The move by a growing number of migrant workers to take their children to cities has led to losses of students for schools in the countryside. Located 35 kilometers away from Nanchang, the Dazhuang Village Primary School in Luo’s hometown has seen the number of its students drop by more than half in the past four years, according to Principal Xiong Guilian. With 22 students now, the school has been changed into a “teaching spot (教学点) ” that only offers the first three grades.

Now how about a virtual visit to stolen art? In order to make public realize the culture heritage (遗产) protection, UNESCO is building the world’s first virtual museum of stolen cultural artifacts (文物). “Behind every stolen work lies a piece of history,” said UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay. “We want to place these works back in the spotlight so that more people can notice them.” The virtual museum works as an educational tool. It will offer visitors 3D images of stolen artifacts. There will also be detailed information about their history. The project will be designed by Francis Kere. The architect won the famous Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2022. When it is opened in 2025, visitors can see more than 600 pieces of artifacts in the museum. One of the most important items is a 3rd-century alabaster stone inscription. It was taken from Awwam temple in Yemen. Visitors will also be able to see an ivory relief (象牙浮雕) from the 7th century BC． The work of a lion attacking a man was stolen from the Baghdad Museum.

Think back to childhood when holidays seemed to last forever and you attended a school for what felt like decades. Now consider last year, by contrast, and it probably raced by. As those in their 30s and 40s will know, the effect gets worse with age—and, for people in their 70s, a year can flash by what seems like days. “Where did the time go?” we wonder. The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information. Childhood and young adulthood are full of novelty (新奇)—the first time you rode a bike, had a romance, get a job—but, as we get older, things get more routine (常规). You can test this out by remembering a recent experience of novelty in your life, such as travel. A few years back, I went skiing for the first time, and that four-day trip still feels “long”. But I might have difficulty noticing a four-day period in my ordinary life. One way that can work things out, then, is easy to see: try lots of new things. Travel more, if you can, and to strange places. Try new hobbies and meet new people—you’ll be using your brain with a lot of efforts, and the result will be a life that feels longer, more meaningful. But small changes work, too: even making a change in the route (路线) you take to the office, reading different kinds of novels or choosing a different place to buy your sandwich at lunchtime will have an influence on your feelings. But novelty can only go so far. Besides, a fulfilling (令人满意的) life requires routine: you can’t build deep relationships, or rise through the ranks at work if you always make new friends or get new jobs or even have new husbands or wives. That’s why the Buddhist teacher Shizen Young suggests another method: learn to meditate (冥想). Even a few minutes a day will get you to have better concentration (专注), and the better you get at concentrating, and the more information your brain will take in during any experience, no matter how boring. You need to believe in yourself. You’ll be making your whole life a little more novel (新颖的). You’ll be more present and time will pass less quickly; in fact, you’ll make your life longer—without magic pills or creative medical technology. How to stop time 31 up The problem It is not a common truth to anyone who is 32 25 years old that time seems to go faster as life goes on. The 33 you get, the faster time races by. The 34 of the problem When things become usual in our life, it might be 35 for you to pay attention to them and so on time passes by. So, experiencing something fresh and special can make you 36 things longer. Advice on how to solve the problem ●It takes you a lot of efforts to use your brain when trying new things, making you feel that your life is longer and 37 more to you. ●Changing something a little can also make a 38 to your feelings. ●Learning to meditate helps people 39 their concentration and take in more information from boring experiences. Conclusion Trust yourself. 40 there might be no new medical technology, you can still live a bit more novel life and experiencing slow flow of time actually makes your life longer. 【答案】 31．speeding 32．over 33．older 34．reason 35．difficult 36．remember 37．mean 38．difference 39．improve 40．Although 【导语】本文主要介绍了时间流逝很快的原因以及阻止时间快速流逝的方法。 31．根据“as life goes on, time seems to speed up.”可知，本文主要介绍了如何阻止时间加速，stop doing“停止做”，speed up“加速”。故填speeding。 32．根据“This is an unusual truth that anyone older than 25 will already know: as life goes on, time seems to speed up.”可知，这是一个不同寻常的事实，任何超过25岁的人都已经知道：随着生活继续，时间似乎加快了，此处是指超过25岁，over“超过”。故填over。 33．根据“Now consider last year, by contrast, and it probably raced by.”可知，年级越大，时间过得越快，此处是“the+比较级，the+比较级”的结构，old“老的”，空处用比较级。故填older。 34．根据“The best reason is that we can keep the important facts in mind longer when our brains have to process more information.”及表格右栏的内容可知，此处是介绍发生这种情况的原因。故填reason。 35．根据“as we get older, things get more routine (常规). ...

But do you know if a colour has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment. First, put two objects (物体) with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Next, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier. Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. The scientist told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength (波长). It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官). According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colours they like and refuse the colours they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colours. Discoveries Examples 41 Colours have 42 You may feel the red box is 43 than the white one, though they have the same weight. Every colour has its own weight in our 44 . The heaviest one is red and the lightest one is 45 . Colours have smell The colour you like can make you    46 . You’ll feel time passes much        47 in the blue room than in the red one. The colour will 48 the body temperature fall if you go from a red room into a blue one. Each colour means a kind of light with a 49 wavelength. The wavelength makes us feel the 50 of the colour. 【答案】 41．Reasons 42．weight 43．heavier 44．mind 45．white 46．healthy/fit 47．faster 48．cause/make 49．certain 50．smell 【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家发现不同的颜色在我们头脑中有不同的重量和气味。 41．根据表格内容“Each colour means a kind of light with a ... wavelength.”和“The wavelength makes us feel the ... of the colour.”可知，这两点是人能感觉到颜色有气味的原因，故推断这一栏主要说明的是颜色有重量和气味的原因，Reasons“原因”符合。故填Reasons。 42．根据“A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind.”可知，科学家发现不同的颜色在人的头脑中有不同的重量。故填weight。 43．根据“It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.”可知，实验表明，你会认为红色盒子比白色的盒子更重。故填heavier。 44．根据“That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind...”可知，每一种颜色在我们的头脑中都有它自己的分量。故填mind。 45．根据“The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.”可知，红色是最重的，白色是最轻的。故填white。 46．根据“So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like.”可知，使用你喜欢的颜色会让你的身体和心灵健康，healthy/fit“健康的”。故填healthy/fit。 47．根据“For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour.”可知，如果你在一个红色房间里待两个小时，你会觉得在那里待了四个小时。但如果房间是蓝色的，你会觉得只在那里待了一个小时。也就是说，在蓝色房间里会感觉时间过得更快，形容词比较级faster“更快”符合。故填faster。 48．根据“Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colours.”可知，如果一个人从红色房间走进蓝色房间，他的体温会下降。也就是说，颜色会导致体温下降，cause(导致)/make(使)，will后用动词原形。故填cause/make。 49．根据“That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength (波长).”可知，每种颜色都代表一种具有特定波长的光。故填certain。 50．根据“The scientist told us that colours also have smell...That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength (波长). It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官).”可知，波长通过感觉器官到达我们的大脑，让我们感受到不同颜色的气味。故填smell。 第六套 24-25九上·江苏省泰州市泰兴市·期中 任务型阅读。阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后的表格。（每空一词） Years ago, I interviewed a successful advertising man. He told me that he dreamed of being a writer in fact. I never believed he could succeed. However, about ten years later, holding up his new book. He has published more than 100 best sellers. His ability to see himself as a writer shows a concept (理念) known as “possible selves”. It describes how people’s future life will be: what they may become, or want to become, or even fear to become. A possible self can bring you far more than daydreams. Your dream can come true if you build a bridge from your “now” self to your possible self. But how do we build that bridge? Here are a few steps you can try. First of all, just take action. If your dream is to succeed in getting a certain job, attend a course and start by taking up that type of work as a hobby or a side job. You should tell yourself that these are the steps you can take to achieve that goal. Secondly, when you have a goal, share it. A study found that the adults who sent weekly progress to a friend completed their goals more easily than those who didn’t share their goals. If more friends know about your goal, it is more possible for you to achieve it. That finding was true for all goals. Finally, get advice from the people who you haven’t spoken to in years. A lot of research has found that when you’re asking for valuable advice, people in your wider network are more likely (可能) to offer it than those closest to you. So, reach out to your weak connections for it when needed.

It is up to you to decide how to react to it. Learn what to do with criticism and lead a happier and more relaxing life. Ask yourself how the criticism will affect (影响) you. Will you lose your job because of the criticism? Will you lose what is important to you because you are criticized? Will life stop existing if your opinions are not accepted? Surely not! So, don’t worry about it. Instead, remember that some criticism actually helps you make some improvements. You absolutely cannot stop what people say. What you can do, however, is to change the way you react to criticism. If you let it upset (扰乱) you, then the blame (过错) is on you. You have the right to decide what to do with the criticism you receive. Don’t be afraid to accept criticism. No one likes to be told that he is wrong. Yet, every single person has, at one time or another, been blamed for something. Realize that it’s normal. You may have received some strong criticism, but it doesn’t mean that you are foolish, or that you don’t have the ability to do something properly. If you are afraid to put your work out for others to see, you’ll never know if you are a capable (能干的) person. Try not to think of it in that way and don’t take it seriously. If you can learn to be optimistic (乐观的), you will remove some stress and nervousness about what people think, thus becoming happier. Consider where the criticism comes from. It may help you step back and examine what causes the criticism. Is the critic just trying to offer constructive criticism? It is much easier to accept correction or guidance from someone that has good intentions. This type of criticism is known as valid (合理的) criticism, because there is a valid point to it. On the other hand, there are critics that offer their advice just to be negative. This is commonly referred to as invalid criticism because it is often not of any use at all. Do your best. If someone doesn’t like what you’ve done, so what? It’s either valid criticism or invalid criticism. But you have the power to decide how you will allow it to affect you. Title: What to do with criticism The author’s opinion about criticism Criticism is a common part of life and it 61 on you to decide your reaction to it. Ways of   62 with criticism ●Understand the effects that criticism has on you: Some criticism won’t make a 63 to you, so don’t worry about it.           Some criticism can help you 64 . ●Change the way you react to criticism and try not to be 65 . ●Accept criticism 66 . Receiving criticism doesn’t mean you are stupid or you are 67 to do things. ●Be optimistic about criticism and you will become less 68 or nervous. ●Think about the 69 for criticism: It may be valid criticism or invalid criticism.

Those students think the schooling has nothing to do with their lives, such as the kind of work they will do in the future. How can teenage students become more engaged (参与) with their studies? Geoff Mulgan, social commentator and TED speaker, believes the solution (解决方法) is to make learning more relevant. He studied the way of people’s learning in schools around the world, from Australia to Paraguay. His research suggested that a new model of schooling was needed—a model that connects what students are learning to their own plans for their future. “What kind of school would have teenagers fighting to get in, not fighting to stay out?” wondered Mulgan. His answer is the one in which students can learn things by doing. Mulgan helped create the Studio School, a system of publicly funded (资助) schools for 14- to 19-year olds in the U.K. Unlike traditional education, Studio Schools connect knowledge learning with practical training for future jobs. About 80 percent of the courses are done not through sitting in classrooms but through real-life, practical projects which include working at local businesses. Mulgan says that many teenagers “learn best in teams, and they learn best by doing things for real.” This different method is also improved by more personalized (个性化) instruction and support. Studio Schools are smaller than traditional schools—usually around 300 learners—to make sure that every student feels valued. Each student has a “personal coach” who helps him or her develop a plan to meet their learning goals. By having more clear goals, students become more confident of doing well at school. Reports have shown hopeful results. Many traditional-school students who were not getting good grades improved greatly after they moved to a Studio School. Mulgan says Studio Schools are based on a simple idea that turns education on its head. They think teamwork and practical projects are very important while learning. This simple idea is spreading. From just one school in 2010, Studio Schools had grown to more than 40 by 2014. Engaging learners 71 Some students don’t do well at school and they aren’t engaged with their studies 72 they think their schooling isn’t connected with their future lives. Solution By researching 73 people around the world learn, Mulgan believes students need a new model of schooling. It should connect learning to their own 74 plans. • Studio Schools, 75 from the traditional ones, make it possible to connect knowledge learning with practical training. • Instead of sitting in classroom, students in Studio Schools finish most courses through practical projects, 76 working at local businesses. • With 77 learners, Studio Schools provide personal plans for students to meet their learning needs. • Having clearer goals in mind, the confident students make great 78 in their schoolwork. Results • According to a simple idea that teamwork and practical projects really matter, Studio Schools had grown from only one in 2010 to 79 40 by 2014. • From the picture, we can see that students in Studio Schools always wear a 80 face while studying there. 【答案】 71．Problems 72．because 73．how 74．future 75．different 76．including 77．300 78．progress 79．over 80．happy 【导语】本文主要讲了Geoff Mulgan创建了一所把学生未来的计划和学习联系起来的学校，这使得学生更加自信，在学习方面取得了更大的进步。 71．根据第一段“Not all teenagers do well at school, but why is that?

As AI art generators (生成器) take the world like a storm, many unexpected things happen at the same time. We don’t know whether it is good or not. People are not sure if their works should be thought as art at all. Artists spent a lot of time putting their inner worlds onto these works. AI painters can create more than 1,000 new works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced (批量生产) print of the Mona Lisa isn’t worth as much as the real Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. Should anyone pay for these mass-produced things? And if an artist puts AI masterpieces into the market, what should the price be? AI art is a program learning from the work of artists to create a new piece according to the needs of a human.

The computer program looks for different kinds of answers in the data. We can find different kinds of information from many sources in big data, such as information from the Internet, schools, companies, and governments. One set of data can have people’s names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer. Big data can be helpful in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. The information is then used to improve bus or train services. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teachers can then give these students more help or support so they can achieve success in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand their buyers better. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream. Some hospitals use big data to predict (预测) if a baby will get sick when he or she is born too early. Then they can take extra steps to protect that baby from illness. However, big data can also bring trouble. For example, it can be used to predict which kinds of people may break the law or hurt others, although they have not done anything wrong. How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because people write computer programs to understand big data. People usually think in their own way and then build a thinking model (模式).

In order to strengthen his newly born authority and protect the north from the Huns (匈奴人), he ordered to build walls. Therefore, many people believed that it was Emperor Qinshihuang who first built the Great Wall. But researches claimed that before Qin’s Great Wall, the six states had already built their own walls to protect themselves. Emperor Qinshihuang ordered the previous wall sections of different states to be linked together and extended.The Great Wall of Qin seemed like a dragon, which runs from Lintao in the west to Liaodong in the east. Thus, it was named “Wanli Changcheng”. In the Western Han Dynasty, the Huns became more powerful. The Han court started to build more walls on a larger scale in order to guard the frontier. In the west, the wall along the HexiCorridor (河西走廊), Yumenguan Pass, and Yangguan Pass was built. In the north, YanmenguanPass and Niangziguan Pass in Shanxi were set up. Many more sections of the wall extended to Yinshan Mountain and half of the ancient Silk Road was along the Han’s wall. The Northern Wei, Northern Qi and Norhern Zhou Dynasties all built their own sections but on a smaller scale than the walls in the Han Dynasties. The powerful Tang Dynasty saw peace between the northern tribes and central China for a long time, so few Great Wall sections were built in the period. The Ming Dynasty is the peak of wall building in Chinese history. The Ming suffered a lot by troubles from minority tribes. The Ming court, from its first emperor to the last, endlessly built walls in the north. Besides adding many more miles of its own, the Ming emperors ordered enlargement of the walls of previous dynasties into double-line or multi-line walls. For example, out of Yanmenguan Pass were added three big stone walls and 23 small stone walls. The countless walls and watchtowers made the country much safer than before. In the early Qing Dynasty, some sections of the walls were repaired and several sections were extended. This great engineering work stopped in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Owing to its long history, natural disasters and human activities, many parts of the Great Wall are badly damaged and disappearing. Being a world-famous engineering project and seeing the rise and fall of Chinese history, the Great Wall needs us to take action to protect it at once!

Generally speaking, people in southern China prefer the salty one while those in northern China love the sweet one. During the Dragon Boat Festival, people usually hang calamus (菖蒲) and wormwood (艾草) on their doors. This is because when the festival is coming, insects are active during this time and people are easy to catch diseases. It is believed that calamus and wormwood have a pleasant smell and they are used medicinally in China and can help keep away from some diseases. During the Dragon Boat Festival, usually, kids would wear sachets (小香囊) in the countryside areas. It is believed that doing so helps drive out the evil spirit and avoid illness. Inside the sachets are some herbal medicines. The shapes of sachets are different and they are tied by the strings together.
