It’s a journey that causes changes in brain activity over time. As we start on this musical adventure, certain parts of our brains become highly active. These parts help us remember and explain what we see, hear, and feel. However, as we progress and become more skilled, these areas of activity start to drop. ②Scientists have long been interested in the effects of learning an instrument on the brain. To explore this interesting subject, Alicia Olszewska and her team from the Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology in Poland carried out a study with 24 people learning the piano over 26 weeks. After 1, 6, 13, and 26 weeks of training, the researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging (功能性磁共振成像) to watch the participants’ (参与者的) brain activity while they tried to play the increasingly difficult pieces. ③The result showed that playing the piano activates (激活) different areas across the brain, including the auditory cortices (听觉皮层) that are required in managing sounds and the motor cortices (运动皮层) required in the planning and making of movements. Interestingly, while the areas responsible for hearing remained relatively balanced over the 26 weeks, those required in movement presented lowered activity. A reduction in brain activity symbolizes its improvement, which would be expected as the participants’ piano-playing skills progressed, says Olszewska. ④The result also showed that learning to play the instrument activates other areas of the brain, including parts of the parietal cortex (顶叶皮层), which connect different kinds of sensory information. Furthermore, Olszewska’s team discovered that as people progress in their learning journey, parts of the brain related to memory and those controlling movement become more active. Activity in these areas similarly dropped as the participants’ training progressed. According to Olszewska, as people progress in their musical skills, their brains become more skilled at managing music. ⑤In a word, learning to play the piano is more than just developing a skill. It’s a groundbreaking experience that changes how our brains work, showing the amazing effectiveness of the human brain. 25．What happens to brain activity while learning to play the piano? A．It increases rapidly. B．It remains the same. C．It becomes balanced. D．It drops gradually. 26．What can we learn from Olszewska’s study? A．Piano playing activates areas of the brain connected with smell. B．Learning to play the piano has no effect on brain activity. C．The brain becomes better at managing music as piano skills improve. D．Brain activity increases over time when learning to play the piano. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．What effects music has on memory. B．What reduction in brain activity symbolizes. C．How learning to play an instrument benefits us. D．How learning the piano changes brain activity. B Volunteers Wanted Do you want to have a meaningful summer holiday?

C A Lesson from a Friend I’ll never forget that day when I felt so embarrassed by the whispers around me. And I never thought I would lose the trust of the friend I cared about most. Four years ago, Clara came to our class as a new student. I don’t know exactly what it was, but something about her made me want to be friends with her. She was so warm and outgoing. We started as desk mates, and soon became best friends. So I never expected she would make me feel hurt like that. I don’t know why I told Clara all my private stories. She made those things sound worse than they really were, added her own opinions and told everyone in the class. It felt like someone had broken my heart. After my secrets were spread, everyone laughed at me and whispered when I walked by. I was so upset that I asked my teacher for help. My teacher talked to Clara, but I still felt bad. Finally, I decided to have a talk with her. I was confused and regretted a lot. I wished I had talked to her earlier instead of keeping quiet. I wished I could fix the mistake. From this experience, I learned a life lesson: we should talk to our friends honestly when there’s a problem, because misunderstanding can break a good friendship. 31．What did the writer do after her secrets were spread? A．She changed to a new school. B．She talked to her teacher for help. C．She stopped talking to everyone. D．She asked her parents for advice. 32．How did the writer feel after knowing Clara spread her secrets? A．Excited. B．Regretful. C．Angry. D．Bored. 33．What lesson did the writer learn from the experience? A．Honest talk helps keep friendship. B．Actions speak louder than words. C．We should never tell secrets to others. D．We need to be friendly to new classmates. D There are many games in which two teams compete to get control of a ball and shoot it into the other net to score a goal. Among them, one is played in the Summer Olympic Games, and its name is “hockey”. The first sport we know like hockey was played in Egypt over 4,000 years ago. There were no records of the modern game until its appearance in English schools in the 18th century, and the first hockey club was formed in 1849 in London. During this time the game became popular among British soldiers, and they introduced it to many other countries. To this day, hockey is popular around the world. In the hockey match, players use sticks to hit, push and pass a small, hard ball. Each team has up to 16 players, of which 11 can be on the pitch (赛场) at one time. These include a goalkeeper plus 10 field players. Field players must not use any body part to control the ball. Only goalkeepers can use their hands and feet to block (阻截) or hit the ball. A hockey match usually lasts 70 minutes, with two 35-minute halves. The team with the most goals is the winner. Games can end in a draw, but if a winner must be found, such as in the World Cup or at the Olympics, a tied match will go into extra time, which is similar to some soccer games. The most important competitions for hockey are the Olympic Games, the Hockey World Cup, and the Commonwealth Games. All of these competitions are held once every four years. The biggest of hockey’s yearly competitions is the Sultan Azlan Shah Hockey Tournament. It’s been held in Malaysia every year and teams from all over the world come to take part in it. 34．What does the second paragraph mainly tell us? A．The history of hockey. B．Players in a hockey match. C．How the game works. D．Important hockey competitions. 35．How many players will play on the pitch at one time in one game? A．Ten. B．Eleven. C．Sixteen. D．Twenty-two. 36．What can we learn from the passage? A．The modern records of hockey didn’t appear in the 18th century. B．The hockey World Cup is held every year. C．Draw means the situation that one team doesn’t score any goal in a game. D．Goalkeepers can use their hands and feet to touch the ball. 37．What might be the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．—His (演讲) was full of love. —That’s right.

I have made ________ in the past few weeks. —________ practice more? Practice makes perfect. A．little progress, Why not B．much progress; Why don’t C．few progresses; How about D．great progress; Why not to 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——恐怕我不得不放弃中国象棋了。过去几周我几乎没进步。——为什么不多练习呢？熟能生巧。 考查不可数名词和特殊疑问句。 why not后跟动词原形；why don’t后一般先加you，然后再接动词原形；how about后跟动名词。progress是不可数名词，表示“进步”，不能用few修饰，排除C选项；根据“I am afraid I have to give up Chinese chess”可推断在中国象棋上没有什么进步，所以应该用little progress。第二空后是动词原形，应用why not。故选A。 10．As we know, a person learns many things by making mistakes and _________ them.

It’s a journey that causes changes in brain activity over time. As we start on this musical adventure, certain parts of our brains become highly active. These parts help us remember and explain what we see, hear, and feel. However, as we progress and become more skilled, these areas of activity start to drop. ②Scientists have long been interested in the effects of learning an instrument on the brain. To explore this interesting subject, Alicia Olszewska and her team from the Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology in Poland carried out a study with 24 people learning the piano over 26 weeks. After 1, 6, 13, and 26 weeks of training, the researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging (功能性磁共振成像) to watch the participants’ (参与者的) brain activity while they tried to play the increasingly difficult pieces. ③The result showed that playing the piano activates (激活) different areas across the brain, including the auditory cortices (听觉皮层) that are required in managing sounds and the motor cortices (运动皮层) required in the planning and making of movements. Interestingly, while the areas responsible for hearing remained relatively balanced over the 26 weeks, those required in movement presented lowered activity. A reduction in brain activity symbolizes its improvement, which would be expected as the participants’ piano-playing skills progressed, says Olszewska. ④The result also showed that learning to play the instrument activates other areas of the brain, including parts of the parietal cortex (顶叶皮层), which connect different kinds of sensory information. Furthermore, Olszewska’s team discovered that as people progress in their learning journey, parts of the brain related to memory and those controlling movement become more active. Activity in these areas similarly dropped as the participants’ training progressed. According to Olszewska, as people progress in their musical skills, their brains become more skilled at managing music. ⑤In a word, learning to play the piano is more than just developing a skill. It’s a groundbreaking experience that changes how our brains work, showing the amazing effectiveness of the human brain. 25．What happens to brain activity while learning to play the piano? A．It increases rapidly. B．It remains the same. C．It becomes balanced. D．It drops gradually. 26．What can we learn from Olszewska’s study? A．Piano playing activates areas of the brain connected with smell. B．Learning to play the piano has no effect on brain activity. C．The brain becomes better at managing music as piano skills improve. D．Brain activity increases over time when learning to play the piano. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．What effects music has on memory. B．What reduction in brain activity symbolizes. C．How learning to play an instrument benefits us. D．How learning the piano changes brain activity. 【答案】25．D 26．C 27．D 【导语】本文通过科学研究说明学习钢琴会改变大脑活动模式，随着技能提升，大脑管理音乐的能力会增强。 25．细节理解题。根据“However, as we progress and become more skilled, these areas of activity start to drop.”可知，随着钢琴学习技能的提升，大脑活动区域会逐渐减少。故选D。 26．细节理解题。根据“According to Olszewska, as people progress in their musical skills, their brains become more skilled at managing music.”可知，随着钢琴技能的提升，大脑在管理音乐方面会变得更高效。故选C。 27．主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第五段“In a word, learning to play the piano is more than just developing a skill. It’s a groundbreaking experience that changes how our brains work”可知，文章主要讲述学习钢琴如何改变大脑活动。故选D。 B Volunteers Wanted Do you want to have a meaningful summer holiday?

And I never thought I would lose the trust of the friend I cared about most. Four years ago, Clara came to our class as a new student. I don’t know exactly what it was, but something about her made me want to be friends with her. She was so warm and outgoing. We started as desk mates, and soon became best friends. So I never expected she would make me feel hurt like that. I don’t know why I told Clara all my private stories. She made those things sound worse than they really were, added her own opinions and told everyone in the class. It felt like someone had broken my heart. After my secrets were spread, everyone laughed at me and whispered when I walked by. I was so upset that I asked my teacher for help. My teacher talked to Clara, but I still felt bad. Finally, I decided to have a talk with her. I was confused and regretted a lot. I wished I had talked to her earlier instead of keeping quiet. I wished I could fix the mistake. From this experience, I learned a life lesson: we should talk to our friends honestly when there’s a problem, because misunderstanding can break a good friendship. 31．What did the writer do after her secrets were spread?

Among them, one is played in the Summer Olympic Games, and its name is “hockey”. The first sport we know like hockey was played in Egypt over 4,000 years ago. There were no records of the modern game until its appearance in English schools in the 18th century, and the first hockey club was formed in 1849 in London. During this time the game became popular among British soldiers, and they introduced it to many other countries. To this day, hockey is popular around the world. In the hockey match, players use sticks to hit, push and pass a small, hard ball. Each team has up to 16 players, of which 11 can be on the pitch (赛场) at one time. These include a goalkeeper plus 10 field players. Field players must not use any body part to control the ball. Only goalkeepers can use their hands and feet to block (阻截) or hit the ball. A hockey match usually lasts 70 minutes, with two 35-minute halves. The team with the most goals is the winner. Games can end in a draw, but if a winner must be found, such as in the World Cup or at the Olympics, a tied match will go into extra time, which is similar to some soccer games. The most important competitions for hockey are the Olympic Games, the Hockey World Cup, and the Commonwealth Games. All of these competitions are held once every four years. The biggest of hockey’s yearly competitions is the Sultan Azlan Shah Hockey Tournament. It’s been held in Malaysia every year and teams from all over the world come to take part in it. 34．What does the second paragraph mainly tell us? A．The history of hockey. B．Players in a hockey match. C．How the game works. D．Important hockey competitions. 35．How many players will play on the pitch at one time in one game? A．Ten. B．Eleven. C．Sixteen. D．Twenty-two. 36．What can we learn from the passage? A．The modern records of hockey didn’t appear in the 18th century. B．The hockey World Cup is held every year. C．Draw means the situation that one team doesn’t score any goal in a game. D．Goalkeepers can use their hands and feet to touch the ball. 37．What might be the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】34．A 35．D 36．D 37．C 【导语】本文围绕曲棍球展开，全面且详细地介绍了这项运动，涵盖历史、比赛规则、赛制以及重要赛事等多方面内容。 34．主旨大意题。本段主要介绍了曲棍球的历史，包括其起源、现代记录的出现、第一个曲棍球俱乐部的成立以及其传播和流行。故选A。 35．细节理解题。根据第三段“Each team has up to 16 players, of which 11 can be on the pitch (赛场) at one time.”可知，每场比赛每个团队同时有11名球员在赛场上。结合“There are many games in which two teams compete to get control of a ball and shoot it into the other net to score a goal. Among them, one is played in the Summer Olympic Games, and its name is ‘hockey’.”可知比赛中应是两个团队对抗比赛，因此场上总共有22人。故选D。 36．细节理解题。根据第三段“Only goalkeepers can use their hands and feet to block (阻截) or hit the ball.”可知，守门员可以用手和脚触球。故选D。 37．篇章结构题。根据文章内容，第一段介绍了曲棍球是一种在夏季奥运会上进行的球类运动；第二段介绍了曲棍球的历史；第三四段介绍了曲棍球比赛的球员和规则；第五段介绍了曲棍球的重要比赛。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．—His (演讲) was full of love. —That’s right.

Happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your teachers will help you. When you study your lessons hard, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health. When you get success, your friends will be happy and congratulate on you.
