But how well can we remember what we’ve read? There are many ways to memorize information. Do you read information in your head? Do you read it aloud? Do you take notes, or just ask someone to test you? We usually choose the best way for us. Previous studies showed that reading information aloud helped people remember it better than reading it in their heads. However, the researchers of those studies paid attention to how well people could remember information, but not how well they could understand it. Researchers in Canada and Australia wanted to find out whether reading aloud had an effect (影响) on comprehension (理解力). The researchers invited some people to do the new research. Those people got passages (章节) to read. They read some aloud, and read some in their heads. After reading each passage, they had to answer a few questions. Some questions tested their memory, and some tested their understanding of the passage. The research team found that reading aloud improved memory. However, it didn’t improve people’s comprehension of the passage. Brady Roberts, one of the researchers, said, “Being able to remember information doesn’t mean you’ll understand it better.” He added, “Reading your shopping list aloud can help you buy the right things, but it’s not necessary to read difficult passages or textbooks aloud.” 根据短文内容选择正确答案。 1．How does the writer develop the passage in the second paragraph? A．By listing numbers. B．By asking questions. C．By comparing facts. 2．What does the underlined word “Previous” probably mean? A．Past. B．Careful. C．Foreign. 3．What’s the main idea of the fourth paragraph? A．Who did the researchers invite to do the new research? B．Why did the researchers ask those readers a few questions? C．How did the researchers carry out the new research? 4．Which of the following might Brady Roberts agree with? A．Reading aloud can’t help people memorize information. B．Reading aloud can’t help people understand any passage or textbook. C．Reading aloud can’t help people understand difficult passages. 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Reading aloud improves memory. B．Reading aloud doesn’t help comprehension. C．Researchers connect memory and comprehension. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了研究发现大声朗读能增强人们记忆，但对文章理解力并无提升。 1．细节理解题。根据“Do you read information in your head?”，“Do you read it aloud?”和“Do you take notes, or just ask someone to test you?”可知作者是通过提问题展开第二段的，故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据“Previous studies showed that reading information aloud helped people remember it better than reading it in their heads.”可知，先前的研究表明，大声朗读信息比在头脑中朗读更有助于人们记忆；可推测出“Previous”意为“先前的”，与“Past”意思相近。故选A。 3．主旨大意题。根据“The researchers invited some people to do the new research.”以及通读第四段可知本段介绍了新研究的过程，故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“Reading your shopping list aloud can help you buy the right things, but it’s not necessary to read difficult passages or textbooks aloud.”可知Brady Roberts认为大声朗读购物清单有助于买正确的东西，而对于难的文章或课本就没必要大声朗读，所以推断选项C“大声朗读不能帮助人们理解难的文章”符合Roberts的观点，故选C。 5．最佳标题题。本文主要讲述了研究发现大声朗读能增强人们记忆，但对文章理解力并无提升，B选项为最佳标题。故选B。 Li Jiaqi is a 9th grader in Shanghai. She used to struggle with Unit 1 English reading—she spent too much time on each article and still couldn’t get the main ideas. “I read every word carefully, but I always forgot what I read,” Li said. She felt sad because her hard work didn’t pay off. Then her English teacher introduced “chunk reading” to her—reading 3-4 words at a time and focusing on topic sentences. Li tried this method and used the “Sound Lab” app to practice pronunciation while reading. After two weeks, she could finish Unit 1 articles 50% faster and understand better. Chen Yu, 15, from Guangzhou, had trouble with Unit 2 festival words. He always mixed up “mooncake” and “zongzi”. His friend told him to use the “Word Link” app—making cards that connect words to pictures. For example, he linked “mooncake” to a picture of mango yogurt mooncakes and “zongzi” to a picture of chestnut zongzi. Now he remembers the words easily. Lin Min, a well-known English teacher, said, “Students need effective learning methods. Unit 1&2 are about ‘how to learn’ and ‘culture’. By combining apps with real-life festivals, students can make English learning fun and useful.” She also advised students to practice speaking by talking about festivals with foreign friends. 1．What does the underlined word “effective” mean in Paragraph 4? A．困难的 B．有效的 C．无聊的 D．昂贵的 2．How did Li Jiaqi improve her Unit 1 reading? A．By reading every word carefully. B．By using “chunk reading” and the “Sound Lab” app. C．By copying articles. D．By asking her friend for help. 3．Match the fact with each person. ① Li Jiaqi　② Chen Yu　③ Lin Min a. Used “Word Link” to remember festival words. b. Taught students effective English learning methods. c. Improved reading by “chunk reading”. A．①-c; ②-a; ③-b B．①-a; ②-c; ③-b C．①-b; ②-a; ③-c D．①-c; ②-b; ③-a 4．What can we learn from Chen Yu’s story? A．He mixed up Unit 1 grammar rules. B．The “Word Link” app helped him remember Unit 2 festival words. C．He disliked eating mango yogurt mooncakes. D．His teacher taught him to make word cards. 5．What advice did Lin Min give for English speaking practice? A．Read English articles every day. B．Use the “Write Right” app to correct grammar mistakes. C．Talk about festivals with foreign friends. D．Join a math competition to improve logic. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．A 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文通过三位学生的案例和一位教师的建议，介绍了提高英语学习效率的方法，包括“意群阅读法”、单词联想工具和结合文化实践等。 1．词句猜测题。根据第4段“Students need effective learning methods”并结合后文“fun and useful”的积极效果可知，需要有效的学习方法，“effective”应指“有效的”。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第2段“Then her English teacher introduced ‘chunk reading’… and used the ‘Sound Lab’ app”可知，李佳琪通过“意群阅读法”和“‘Sound Lab’”应用程序提高阅读。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据前两段“Li Jiaqi is… ‘chunk reading’”可知，李佳琪通过“意群阅读”提高阅读能力（①-c）、第3段“Chen Yu… ‘Word Link’”可知，陈宇用“Word Link”来记单词（②-a）和第4段“Lin Min… ‘Students need effective learning methods’...She also advised students to practice speaking by talking about festivals with foreign friends.”可知，林敏教授学生有效的英语学习方法（③-b），故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据第3段“His friend told him to use the ‘Word Link’ app… Now he remembers the words easily”可知，陈宇通过“Word Link”应用帮助他记忆Unit 2的节日单词。故选B。 5．细节理解题。根据第4段“She also advised students to practice speaking by talking about festivals with foreign friends”可知，林老师建议通过与外国朋友交流练习口语。故选C。 Unit 2单元话题 ①The Mid-Autumn Festival, falling on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, is a time for family reunions and admiring the moon. Legend has it that Hou Yi’s wife Chang’e flew to the moon on this day, leading to the tradition of admiring the moon. ②Interestingly, in 2025, a rare blood moon appeared on September 7th, the 16th day of the 7th lunar month, right after the Ghost Festival. In Chinese culture, the Ghost Festival is for remembering ancestors, and the blood moon only happens on the night of a full moon. It is a natural phenomenon (现象) where the moon appears red during a lunar eclipse (月食). It has always been connected with a feeling of mystery. ③However, the Mid-Autumn Festival is quite different. It’s full of joy and warmth. Families gather, enjoy a big dinner, eat mooncakes and admire the full moon together. Poems like “Looking up, I find the moon bright; bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned” show their true meaning in expressing homesickness and longing for family. ④The Mid-Autumn Festival, deeply rooted in Chinese history, is one of the most important traditional festivals. It is a symbol of family reunion, carrying the values of family bonds and wanting a harmonious life. 1．According to the passage, what is the main traditional activity that families do during the Mid-Autumn Festival? A．Remember ancestors. B．Watch the blood moon. C．Admire the full moon. D．Read poems about the moon. 2．What is the title of the poem mentioned in the third paragraph? A．The Mid-Autumn Moon. B．Thoughts on a Quiet Night. C．A Song of the Moon. D．When Will the Bright Moon Appear? 3．During which of the following festivals is it possible for people to see a blood moon? ①the Mid-Autumn Festival         ②the Spring Festival ③the Lantern Festival         ④the Dragon Boat Festival A．①② B．②④ C．③④ D．①③ 4．Which sentence uses “bond” with the same meaning as the underlined word? bond /ba:nd/ n. ①纽带②黏合③债券④契约 A．My word is my bond. B．My father put all his money into stock market bonds. C．Use a glue gun to form a strong bond on wood or china. D．This creates a strong emotional bond between mother and child. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中秋节的相关情况，包括中秋节的时间及嫦娥奔月的传说，还提及2025年中元节过后出现的血月这一自然现象，最后指出中秋节是中国重要传统节日，象征家庭团聚，承载着亲情纽带与和谐生活的价值观。 1．细节理解题。根据“①The Mid-Autumn Festival... is a time for family reunions and admiring the moon.”以及“③... Families gather, enjoy a big dinner, eat mooncakes and admire the full moon together.”可知，中秋节期间家庭的主要传统活动是赏月，故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“Poems like ‘Looking up, I find the moon bright; bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned’ show its true meaning...”可知，文中提及的诗句是李白《静夜思》的英文翻译，《静夜思》对应的英文标题为“Thoughts on a Quiet Night”，故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据“②... the blood moon only happens on the night of a full moon.”可知，血月只在满月之夜出现。中秋节（农历八月十五）和元宵节（农历正月十五）均为满月之时，有可能看到血月；春节（农历正月初一，新月）、端午节（农历五月初五，非满月）无满月，难以看到血月，因此①③符合题意，故选D。 4．词义猜测题。根据“④... carrying the values of family bonds and wanting a harmonious life.”可知，文中“bond”意为“纽带”。D选项“a strong emotional bond between mother and child”中“bond”意为“情感纽带”，与原文“亲情纽带”含义一致，故选D。 Qingming Festival (Tomb Sweeping Day) is a traditional Chinese festival for families to show respect to their ancestors. People visit their ancestors’ grave sites (祖先墓地) and offer food, drinks and flowers. The festival falls on the fourth day of April this year. There are some Chinese poems that offer clues about Chinese festivals through ancient expressions. Here we look at one of them. Mourning Day Drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day, The mourner’s heart is going to break on his way. Where can a wine shop be found to drown his sad hours? A cowherd (牧童) points to a cot’ mid apricot flowers (杏花). (Translated by Xu Yuanchong, Chinese translator) In China, around the time of Qingming Festival, there is more rain. The poet is traveling far away from home on these rainy days. The rain and lonely walks add a sad mood to this poem. The writer, Du Mu describes a rainy scene in a village in the first two lines. Then in the last two lines, the poet wants to find a place to take a rest, drink some wine and get rid of the sad mood. In the last line, a cowherd points to a direction, which vividly describes two people looking far ahead on the rainy day. In this poem, Du Mu presents a village with apricot flowers around. He doesn’t describe its details on a rainy day but leaves room for the readers to imagine. Qingming is not only a sad festival, but can also be a happy time for people to enjoy the spring and get closer to nature. Trees are green and flowers are blooming, so it’s a good time to be outside. 1．Qingming Festival is in ________. A．spring B．summer C．autumn D．winter 2．The underlined word “them” refers to “________” in the passage. A．expressions B．poems C．clues D．poets 3．From the last two lines of Mourning Day, we can know the poet is ________.

D．Qingming is only a sad festival for people. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的清明节，包括其意义、时间、相关诗歌以及节日氛围等。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段首句“Qingming Festival (Tomb Sweeping Day) is a traditional Chinese festival for families to show respect to their ancestors.”以及最后一段“Qingming is not only a sad festival, but can also be a happy time for people to enjoy the spring and get closer to nature.”可知，清明节是家庭向祖先表示敬意的传统节日，并且也是人们享受春天、亲近自然的好时机，由此可推知清明节在春季。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据上文“There are some Chinese poems that offer clues about Chinese festivals through ancient expressions.”可知，有一些中国诗歌通过古代的表达方式提供了关于中国节日的线索，由此可推知此处them指代上文提到的poems“诗歌”。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的“Then in the last two lines, the poet wants to find a place to take a rest, drink some wine and get rid of the sad mood.”可知，在最后两行中，诗人想找个地方休息一下，喝点儿酒，摆脱悲伤的情绪，由此可推知诗人是不开心的。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“The writer, Du Mu describes a rainy scene in a village in the first two lines.”可知，这首诗《清明》的作者是杜牧。选项C“这首名为《清明》的诗的作者是杜牧。”符合文意。故选C。 Unit 3单元话题 Asking for directions is the first thing we do when we arrive in a new place or even when we are just trying to find a place. Knowing how to ask for them can make our life much easier! Use greetings and polite expressions. Starting the conversation with a greeting is necessary. If you want to get a nice answer, begin by saying “hello” first. And some words like “may”, “can” and “could” will help you express yourself better. Build your words.

Get to know the transportation. Sometimes, it can happen that you are still far from your place. Which kind of public transportation should you choose? You might ask like this, “Is it far?

You can decrease search time if you know what the most important symbols are in the city. Your place might be around the symbols. Don’t be too shy to ask. Learn to relax if you get lost somewhere. We all do that now and then, especially when visiting a new city. But always make sure you can ask others for help! 1．Which of the following expressions may NOT help you when asking for directions?

And some words like ‘may’, ‘can’ and ‘could’ will help you express yourself better.”可知，使用“May I ask...”、“Can I know...”和“Could you please...”等表达方式可以帮助更好地问路，而“Tell me...”这种命令式的语气则不太合适。故选D。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“You can decrease search time if you know what the most important symbols are in the city. Your place might be around the symbols.”可知，如果你知道城市里最重要的标志是什么，你就可以“decrease”搜索时间，你的地方可能就在这些标志附近。由此可以推断，“decrease”在这里的意思是“缩短”。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Learn to relax if you get lost somewhere. We all do that now and then, especially when visiting a new city.”可知，每个人偶尔都会迷路，尤其是在参观新城市时，所以选项D“大多数人在参观新城市时很少迷路”是不正确的。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。根据文章第一段“Asking for directions is the first thing we do when we arrive in a new place or even when we are just trying to find a place.

For me, it was last Sunday. My friend invited me to a European art exhibition (展览) in Shanghai. To be honest, I’m not interested in art paintings at all. I know very little about European art. So, at first, I refused to go to the exhibition. But finally I became excited to see the artworks of the famous artists like Monet (莫奈) and Van Gogh (梵高). The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face. My friend was happy to see so many different painting styles in one place. The visit made her remember the trip to Paris several years ago. She told me that art could be found in every corner of the city. Most of the visitors, I thought, had limited (有限的) knowledge about art, too. They were just busy taking pictures, and then showed everyone on WeChat that they had been there. Under the influence of my friend, who is an art lover, I began to look at the paintings carefully. One painting that moved me most was Van Gogh’s Long Grass with Butterflies. Those things such as grass and butterflies were quite common in my life. However, I had never thought they were worth attention. I had usually followed the crowd to see what was “special”. Actually, we should pay more attention to the “common” things around us. Sometimes we are supposed to have a careful look, think for a while, and then we will find the beauty in our life. 1．The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to “________ ”. A．the artists B．the artworks C．the visitors D．the writer and her friend 2．Which is the RIGHT order about the writer according to the passage? ①I refused to go to the art exhibition.           ②I went to see the exhibition with my friend. ③I was invited to the exhibition.               ④I was moved by Long Grass with Butterflies.

C．Monet’s Long Grass with Butterflies was very special in fact. D．All the visitors enjoyed taking photos and showing them on WeChat. 4．What’s the best title of the passage? A．A Visit to Europe B．Stop, Listen and Show C．Enjoy the Artworks D．Stop, Look and Think 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．D 【导语】本文讲述作者在朋友邀请下参观欧洲艺术展的经历，从起初不感兴趣到被梵高的画作《长草与蝴蝶》所感动，从而意识到应当停下脚步、认真观察生活中平凡之美的过程。 1．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face.”可知，前句提到的是52件艺术作品，因此“them”指代“the artworks”。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第一段“My friend invited me to a European art exhibition in Shanghai.”；第二段“So, at first, I refused to go to the exhibition.”和“But finally I became excited to see the artworks of the famous artists like Monet and Van Gogh. The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face.”以及第四段“One painting that moved me most was Van Gogh’s Long Grass with Butterflies.”可知，正确的顺序是③我被邀请参加展览；①我拒绝去看艺术展；②我和朋友一起去看展览；④我被《长草与蝴蝶》打动了。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第二段“The exhibition included 52 artworks.”以及第三段“My friend was happy to see so many different painting styles in one place.”可知，展览包含了52件不同风格的艺术作品。故选B。 4．最佳标题题。本文重点强调作者通过这次艺术展学会了“停下脚步，认真观察、思考，从平凡中发现美”，与“Stop, Look and Think（停下、看一看、想一想）”的主题相符。故选D。 When I was a teenage girl, I went to Berlin, Germany for an exchange (交换) program with my team members. One night, we had some free time. Most of them decided to stay indoors and relax. But I did not want to miss the chance to tour Berlin. I visited lots of places around the city that night. When I finally decided to go back, it was two o’clock in the morning! As I walked to an underground station, I realized that it was my dad’s birthday. This would be the first birthday I couldn’t celebrate with him, because he had passed away a few months earlier. Before I could begin to miss my dad, the train came. I rushed onto the train. Soon I found that the train was heading in the wrong direction! I felt afraid. I looked around the nearly empty car. There was a young woman sitting quietly by the window. I approached her and asked her for help. Luckily, the woman understood English. She told me how to return to where I got on the train. But I was too nervous to follow her instructions. Without thinking, I said, “Can you come with me?” She gave me a surprised look. But she agreed. On the journey back, she and I talked. We shared our life stories and our hopes for the future. I even told her about my dad’s passing. With a look of surprise, she told me that she had lost her dad a month before. At my station, she thanked me for sharing so much with her. She also told me how I had encouraged her. I couldn’t believe this stranger with the big heart was thanking me! I gave her a hug and thanked her for her great kindness. 1．What did the writer plan to do that night? A．To go around Berlin. B．To talk with a stranger. C．To reminisce about her father.

I felt afraid.”可知，作者害怕是因为坐错了火车。故选A。 3．词句猜测题。根据“I looked around the nearly empty car. There was a young woman sitting quietly by the window. I approached her and asked her for help.”结合上下文可知，作者在看到女子后，应该是走向她、靠近她以寻求帮助。因此“approached”意为“靠近”。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据“I even told her about my dad’s passing. With a look of surprise, she told me that she had lost her dad a month before.”可知，两人都在不久前失去了父亲。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了在陌生城市迷路的作者得到了一位陌生女子的热心帮助，并且两人在交流中发现共同经历，彼此给予了精神上的鼓励，这份来自陌生人的善意是文章的主题。因此，选项C“来自陌生人的善意”最能概括这一主旨，是最佳标题。故选C。 Unit 5单元话题 When we talk about Hangzhou, we must think of the West Lake. In fact, Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park and Yuhang oil paper umbrellas have already got much attention (关注). Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park, in the west of Hangzhou, founded in 2005, is China’s first national wetland park. The park is only 5 kilometers away from the West Lake. With an area of 11.5 square kilometers, almost 70% of the park is water. There are 6 long rivers and the waterways inside the park are more than 100 kilometers long. About 85% of the land in Xixi is covered by many kinds of trees. It is becoming a must-visit in Hangzhou. As for Yuhang oil paper umbrellas, they have a history of more than 230 years. The traditional way of making them has been seen as a Zhejiang Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) since 2007. These paper umbrellas come from Yuhang. That’s why people call them Yuhang oilpaper umbrellas. Liu Weixue, 32, is the grandson of Liu Youquan, the inheritor (继承者) of the umbrella. He loves this traditional culture and his grandfather makes a big difference to him.

It was started in China during the Han Dynasty as part of the farming culture. The dragon shows wisdom (智慧), power and wealth. Like the lion dance, it is most often seen in festival celebrations. It is believed that performing the dragon dance keeps people away from all the bad luck and brings in good luck and wealth. In the dance, a team of dancers hold the dragon—which is an image of the Chinese dragon—on poles (竿). The lead dancers lift and sweep, making different skillful movements with the head. The dragon’s body is made of cloth and bamboo. Its length can be different, some reaching 100 meters long and held by many people. Today, most dragon dances are performed by ten people, with one holding a bead (珠子) in front of the team. To perform an excellent dragon dance, the performers of a dragon dance team must be able to run in the correct footsteps which shouldn’t be too quick or too slow.

When they came home, George discovered that he and his dog were both covered with burrs (带芒刺的小果实). As an engineer, George naturally began to wonder how the burrs stuck (刺入) to his dog and his clothes. Then he looked at them carefully. He found that the burrs had little hooks (钩子), which allowed them to catch on to things like clothes. George realized that he could use this finding to create a new way to fasten (扣紧) things. It was a very long journey from the first idea to the final product. It was easy to find materials that could stick together, but finding materials that would continue to do so after years of use was difficult. George tested a very large number of different materials and production methods. After years of research and work, he invented what is known today as Velcro. In 1955, George started Velcro Industries to turn his idea into a product. In a few years, the product became popular around the world. Today Velcro is used everywhere. It’s used in backpacks, jackets, wallets, children’s toys, etc. It even turns up in places you wouldn’t expect. For example, Velcro has been used by NASA for astronauts’ space suits. The product was also used to hold the heart together during the very first artificial heart transplant (人工心脏移植). 1．Where did George get the idea of inventing Velcro? A．From little hooks of burrs. B．From a science report. C．From his dog’s discovery. D．From the clothes he was wearing. 2．What was a difficult problem for George? A．To find a factory to produce his product. B．To find out why burrs could stick to clothes. C．To find enough materials to produce his product. D．To find materials that could be used for a long time. 3．What does the underlined word “methods” probably mean? A．Ways. B．Secret. C．Customers. D．Mistakes. 4．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The future of Velcro. B．The wide use of Velcro. C．The materials of Velcro. D．The story behind Velcro. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了魔术贴的发明过程及其广泛应用。 1．细节理解题。根据“He found that the burrs had little hooks (钩子), which allowed them to catch on to things like clothes. George realized that he could use this finding to create a new way to fasten (扣紧) things.”可知，George是从芒刺的小钩子中得到了发明魔术贴的灵感。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“finding materials that would continue to do so after years of use was difficult”可知，George面临的困难是找到可以长期使用的材料。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据“George tested a very large number of different materials and production methods.”可知，乔治测试了大量不同的材料和生产方法，画线单词methods意为“方法”，与“ways”近义。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据最后一段第一句“Today Velcro is used everywhere...”可知，最后一段主要讲述了魔术贴的广泛使用。故选B。 Water is important to all living things but some areas in the world are short of water a lot. So we should try to protect and save water. A group of students from Zhejiang University have successfully developed an “air hand-washing machine”. The machine uses an infrared ray induction system (红外线感应系统), which can feel the presence of our hands. If it feels there are hands, the water with the air will come from the tap. And it has been proven that it is nearly as effective as a traditional hand-washing machine. It uses only ten percent of the water that regular hand-washing machine does. The students have even set up a company to introduce the product to the public. Li Qizhang, a member of the team that developed the machine, told a reporter that a model of their machine had already been placed in a classroom building at the university and it worked well. In 2014, a student called Chen Puyang first thought of the idea while he was washing his hands. Washing one’s hands uses a lot of water, Chen thought. Would it be possible to replace the water with air? Others may not give the question a second thought. However, for Chen and Li, who were studying fluid mechanics (流体力学) at the time, this was considered to be an excellent idea. Soon Chen, Li and several classmates started on the project. After a year of research, the team made a gravity-driven (重力驱动) hand-washing machine successfully. 1．The underlined word “presence” means ________ in Paragraph 2. A．形状 B．存在 C．距离 D．影响 2．The underlined sentence in the 4th paragraph means ________ A．other people may not spend a second thinking about the question again. B．other people may think it is impossible to use air instead of water. C．other people may not think or worry about the question at all. D．other people may think there is no answer to the question. 3．We can infer from the passage that ________. A．the air hand-washing machine will be expensive B．you can wash your hands clean without any electricity C．the students developed the machine by the knowledge of fluid mechanics D．you can buy the “air hand-washing machine” 4．Which of the following is TRUE about the “air hand-washing machine”? A．A company was set up to produce the machine. B．It doesn’t need any water when you wash your hands. C．The idea of the machine came to Chen’s mind suddenly. D．It was invented by two students from Zhejiang University. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了浙江大学学生团队发明的“空气洗手装置”，通过红外感应系统和流体力学原理实现节水功能，并已投入实际应用。 1．词句猜测题。根据“The machine uses an infrared ray induction system… which can feel the presence of our hands.”可知，该装置通过红外感应系统感知手的存在，故“presence”指“存在”。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。划线句“Others may not give the question a second thought.”是一个英语习语，字面意思是“别人不会给这个问题第二次想法”，其真正含义是“别人根本不会（花时间去）考虑这个问题”或“别人会对这个问题不屑一顾”。选项C“其他人可能完全不会思考或担心这个问题”最贴合原意。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“Chen and Li, who were studying fluid mechanics (流体力学)… this was considered to be an excellent idea.”可知，正在学习流体力学的陈和李认为这是一个绝妙的想法及后文“gravity-driven (重力驱动) hand-washing machine”可推知，该装置运用了流体力学知识。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“In 2014, a student called Chen Puyang first thought of the idea while he was washing his hands.”可知，2014年，一位名叫陈濮阳的学生在洗手的时候第一次想到了这个主意。故选C。 Unit 7单元话题 In your school, are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn? Of course, the answer is “No” here in China. In America there is a school trying something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are better at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college, while others will not. At this school, students are able to find subjects they are interested in, and possibly even find the field they would like to go into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject like biology, math, a foreign language, or study skills like computer or car repair. Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps students think about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills needed to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose their own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know what they will want to do in the future. What do you think? Would you like to be able to choose your own classes? Many useful changes have been made in education, but seeing the differences in each student is also important. How can we help each student become a better student? 1．What are students at a high school in Florida allowed to do? A．Choose the subjects they are interested in. B．Become a foreign language teacher.

But how well can we remember what we’ve read? There are many ways to memorize information. Do you read information in your head? Do you read it aloud? Do you take notes, or just ask someone to test you? We usually choose the best way for us. Previous studies showed that reading information aloud helped people remember it better than reading it in their heads. However, the researchers of those studies paid attention to how well people could remember information, but not how well they could understand it. Researchers in Canada and Australia wanted to find out whether reading aloud had an effect (影响) on comprehension (理解力). The researchers invited some people to do the new research. Those people got passages (章节) to read. They read some aloud, and read some in their heads. After reading each passage, they had to answer a few questions. Some questions tested their memory, and some tested their understanding of the passage. The research team found that reading aloud improved memory. However, it didn’t improve people’s comprehension of the passage. Brady Roberts, one of the researchers, said, “Being able to remember information doesn’t mean you’ll understand it better.” He added, “Reading your shopping list aloud can help you buy the right things, but it’s not necessary to read difficult passages or textbooks aloud.” 根据短文内容选择正确答案。 1．How does the writer develop the passage in the second paragraph? A．By listing numbers. B．By asking questions. C．By comparing facts. 2．What does the underlined word “Previous” probably mean? A．Past. B．Careful. C．Foreign. 3．What’s the main idea of the fourth paragraph? A．Who did the researchers invite to do the new research? B．Why did the researchers ask those readers a few questions? C．How did the researchers carry out the new research? 4．Which of the following might Brady Roberts agree with? A．Reading aloud can’t help people memorize information. B．Reading aloud can’t help people understand any passage or textbook. C．Reading aloud can’t help people understand difficult passages. 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Reading aloud improves memory. B．Reading aloud doesn’t help comprehension. C．Researchers connect memory and comprehension. Li Jiaqi is a 9th grader in Shanghai. She used to struggle with Unit 1 English reading—she spent too much time on each article and still couldn’t get the main ideas. “I read every word carefully, but I always forgot what I read,” Li said. She felt sad because her hard work didn’t pay off. Then her English teacher introduced “chunk reading” to her—reading 3-4 words at a time and focusing on topic sentences. Li tried this method and used the “Sound Lab” app to practice pronunciation while reading. After two weeks, she could finish Unit 1 articles 50% faster and understand better. Chen Yu, 15, from Guangzhou, had trouble with Unit 2 festival words. He always mixed up “mooncake” and “zongzi”. His friend told him to use the “Word Link” app—making cards that connect words to pictures. For example, he linked “mooncake” to a picture of mango yogurt mooncakes and “zongzi” to a picture of chestnut zongzi. Now he remembers the words easily. Lin Min, a well-known English teacher, said, “Students need effective learning methods. Unit 1&2 are about ‘how to learn’ and ‘culture’. By combining apps with real-life festivals, students can make English learning fun and useful.” She also advised students to practice speaking by talking about festivals with foreign friends. 1．What does the underlined word “effective” mean in Paragraph 4? A．困难的 B．有效的 C．无聊的 D．昂贵的 2．How did Li Jiaqi improve her Unit 1 reading? A．By reading every word carefully. B．By using “chunk reading” and the “Sound Lab” app. C．By copying articles. D．By asking her friend for help. 3．Match the fact with each person. ① Li Jiaqi　② Chen Yu　③ Lin Min a. Used “Word Link” to remember festival words. b. Taught students effective English learning methods. c. Improved reading by “chunk reading”. A．①-c; ②-a; ③-b B．①-a; ②-c; ③-b C．①-b; ②-a; ③-c D．①-c; ②-b; ③-a 4．What can we learn from Chen Yu’s story? A．He mixed up Unit 1 grammar rules. B．The “Word Link” app helped him remember Unit 2 festival words. C．He disliked eating mango yogurt mooncakes.

Unit 2单元话题 ①The Mid-Autumn Festival, falling on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, is a time for family reunions and admiring the moon. Legend has it that Hou Yi’s wife Chang’e flew to the moon on this day, leading to the tradition of admiring the moon. ②Interestingly, in 2025, a rare blood moon appeared on September 7th, the 16th day of the 7th lunar month, right after the Ghost Festival. In Chinese culture, the Ghost Festival is for remembering ancestors, and the blood moon only happens on the night of a full moon. It is a natural phenomenon (现象) where the moon appears red during a lunar eclipse (月食). It has always been connected with a feeling of mystery. ③However, the Mid-Autumn Festival is quite different. It’s full of joy and warmth. Families gather, enjoy a big dinner, eat mooncakes and admire the full moon together. Poems like “Looking up, I find the moon bright; bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned” show their true meaning in expressing homesickness and longing for family. ④The Mid-Autumn Festival, deeply rooted in Chinese history, is one of the most important traditional festivals. It is a symbol of family reunion, carrying the values of family bonds and wanting a harmonious life. 1．According to the passage, what is the main traditional activity that families do during the Mid-Autumn Festival? A．Remember ancestors. B．Watch the blood moon. C．Admire the full moon. D．Read poems about the moon. 2．What is the title of the poem mentioned in the third paragraph? A．The Mid-Autumn Moon. B．Thoughts on a Quiet Night. C．A Song of the Moon.

B．My father put all his money into stock market bonds. C．Use a glue gun to form a strong bond on wood or china. D．This creates a strong emotional bond between mother and child. Qingming Festival (Tomb Sweeping Day) is a traditional Chinese festival for families to show respect to their ancestors. People visit their ancestors’ grave sites (祖先墓地) and offer food, drinks and flowers. The festival falls on the fourth day of April this year. There are some Chinese poems that offer clues about Chinese festivals through ancient expressions. Here we look at one of them. Mourning Day Drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day, The mourner’s heart is going to break on his way. Where can a wine shop be found to drown his sad hours? A cowherd (牧童) points to a cot’ mid apricot flowers (杏花). (Translated by Xu Yuanchong, Chinese translator) In China, around the time of Qingming Festival, there is more rain. The poet is traveling far away from home on these rainy days. The rain and lonely walks add a sad mood to this poem. The writer, Du Mu describes a rainy scene in a village in the first two lines. Then in the last two lines, the poet wants to find a place to take a rest, drink some wine and get rid of the sad mood. In the last line, a cowherd points to a direction, which vividly describes two people looking far ahead on the rainy day. In this poem, Du Mu presents a village with apricot flowers around. He doesn’t describe its details on a rainy day but leaves room for the readers to imagine. Qingming is not only a sad festival, but can also be a happy time for people to enjoy the spring and get closer to nature. Trees are green and flowers are blooming, so it’s a good time to be outside. 1．Qingming Festival is in ________. A．spring B．summer C．autumn D．winter 2．The underlined word “them” refers to “________” in the passage. A．expressions B．poems C．clues D．poets 3．From the last two lines of Mourning Day, we can know the poet is ________.

For me, it was last Sunday. My friend invited me to a European art exhibition (展览) in Shanghai. To be honest, I’m not interested in art paintings at all. I know very little about European art. So, at first, I refused to go to the exhibition. But finally I became excited to see the artworks of the famous artists like Monet (莫奈) and Van Gogh (梵高). The exhibition included 52 artworks. It was really a different experience to see them face to face. My friend was happy to see so many different painting styles in one place. The visit made her remember the trip to Paris several years ago. She told me that art could be found in every corner of the city. Most of the visitors, I thought, had limited (有限的) knowledge about art, too. They were just busy taking pictures, and then showed everyone on WeChat that they had been there. Under the influence of my friend, who is an art lover, I began to look at the paintings carefully. One painting that moved me most was Van Gogh’s Long Grass with Butterflies. Those things such as grass and butterflies were quite common in my life. However, I had never thought they were worth attention. I had usually followed the crowd to see what was “special”. Actually, we should pay more attention to the “common” things around us. Sometimes we are supposed to have a careful look, think for a while, and then we will find the beauty in our life. 1．The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to “________ ”.

A．A Visit to Europe B．Stop, Listen and Show C．Enjoy the Artworks D．Stop, Look and Think When I was a teenage girl, I went to Berlin, Germany for an exchange (交换) program with my team members. One night, we had some free time. Most of them decided to stay indoors and relax. But I did not want to miss the chance to tour Berlin. I visited lots of places around the city that night. When I finally decided to go back, it was two o’clock in the morning! As I walked to an underground station, I realized that it was my dad’s birthday. This would be the first birthday I couldn’t celebrate with him, because he had passed away a few months earlier. Before I could begin to miss my dad, the train came. I rushed onto the train. Soon I found that the train was heading in the wrong direction! I felt afraid. I looked around the nearly empty car. There was a young woman sitting quietly by the window. I approached her and asked her for help. Luckily, the woman understood English. She told me how to return to where I got on the train. But I was too nervous to follow her instructions. Without thinking, I said, “Can you come with me?” She gave me a surprised look. But she agreed. On the journey back, she and I talked. We shared our life stories and our hopes for the future. I even told her about my dad’s passing. With a look of surprise, she told me that she had lost her dad a month before. At my station, she thanked me for sharing so much with her. She also told me how I had encouraged her. I couldn’t believe this stranger with the big heart was thanking me!

In fact, Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park and Yuhang oil paper umbrellas have already got much attention (关注). Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park, in the west of Hangzhou, founded in 2005, is China’s first national wetland park. The park is only 5 kilometers away from the West Lake. With an area of 11.5 square kilometers, almost 70% of the park is water. There are 6 long rivers and the waterways inside the park are more than 100 kilometers long. About 85% of the land in Xixi is covered by many kinds of trees. It is becoming a must-visit in Hangzhou. As for Yuhang oil paper umbrellas, they have a history of more than 230 years. The traditional way of making them has been seen as a Zhejiang Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) since 2007. These paper umbrellas come from Yuhang. That’s why people call them Yuhang oilpaper umbrellas. Liu Weixue, 32, is the grandson of Liu Youquan, the inheritor (继承者) of the umbrella. He loves this traditional culture and his grandfather makes a big difference to him. So Liu Weixue gave up his job and began to design (设计), make and sell Yuhang paper umbrellas with his students. “It’s not easy to make an umbrella — more than 70 steps, but we should pass down the traditional culture,” Liu said. 1．What does the underlined word “founded” most probably mean?

C．To compare Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park with Yuhang oil paper umbrellas. D．To introduce Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park and Yuhang oil paper umbrellas. Dragon dance is a traditional folk activity in China. It was started in China during the Han Dynasty as part of the farming culture. The dragon shows wisdom (智慧), power and wealth. Like the lion dance, it is most often seen in festival celebrations. It is believed that performing the dragon dance keeps people away from all the bad luck and brings in good luck and wealth. In the dance, a team of dancers hold the dragon—which is an image of the Chinese dragon—on poles (竿). The lead dancers lift and sweep, making different skillful movements with the head. The dragon’s body is made of cloth and bamboo. Its length can be different, some reaching 100 meters long and held by many people. Today, most dragon dances are performed by ten people, with one holding a bead (珠子) in front of the team. To perform an excellent dragon dance, the performers of a dragon dance team must be able to run in the correct footsteps which shouldn’t be too quick or too slow. Music during the dragon dance is often given by a team of musicians, usually playing traditional drums and gongs (锣). ______ In many areas, it is the highlight (亮点) of the Lantern Festival.

When they came home, George discovered that he and his dog were both covered with burrs (带芒刺的小果实). As an engineer, George naturally began to wonder how the burrs stuck (刺入) to his dog and his clothes. Then he looked at them carefully. He found that the burrs had little hooks (钩子), which allowed them to catch on to things like clothes. George realized that he could use this finding to create a new way to fasten (扣紧) things. It was a very long journey from the first idea to the final product. It was easy to find materials that could stick together, but finding materials that would continue to do so after years of use was difficult. George tested a very large number of different materials and production methods. After years of research and work, he invented what is known today as Velcro. In 1955, George started Velcro Industries to turn his idea into a product. In a few years, the product became popular around the world. Today Velcro is used everywhere. It’s used in backpacks, jackets, wallets, children’s toys, etc. It even turns up in places you wouldn’t expect. For example, Velcro has been used by NASA for astronauts’ space suits. The product was also used to hold the heart together during the very first artificial heart transplant (人工心脏移植). 1．Where did George get the idea of inventing Velcro? A．From little hooks of burrs. B．From a science report. C．From his dog’s discovery. D．From the clothes he was wearing. 2．What was a difficult problem for George? A．To find a factory to produce his product. B．To find out why burrs could stick to clothes. C．To find enough materials to produce his product. D．To find materials that could be used for a long time. 3．What does the underlined word “methods” probably mean? A．Ways. B．Secret. C．Customers. D．Mistakes. 4．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The future of Velcro. B．The wide use of Velcro. C．The materials of Velcro. D．The story behind Velcro. Water is important to all living things but some areas in the world are short of water a lot. So we should try to protect and save water. A group of students from Zhejiang University have successfully developed an “air hand-washing machine”. The machine uses an infrared ray induction system (红外线感应系统), which can feel the presence of our hands. If it feels there are hands, the water with the air will come from the tap. And it has been proven that it is nearly as effective as a traditional hand-washing machine. It uses only ten percent of the water that regular hand-washing machine does. The students have even set up a company to introduce the product to the public. Li Qizhang, a member of the team that developed the machine, told a reporter that a model of their machine had already been placed in a classroom building at the university and it worked well. In 2014, a student called Chen Puyang first thought of the idea while he was washing his hands. Washing one’s hands uses a lot of water, Chen thought. Would it be possible to replace the water with air? Others may not give the question a second thought. However, for Chen and Li, who were studying fluid mechanics (流体力学) at the time, this was considered to be an excellent idea. Soon Chen, Li and several classmates started on the project. After a year of research, the team made a gravity-driven (重力驱动) hand-washing machine successfully. 1．The underlined word “presence” means ________ in Paragraph 2. A．形状 B．存在 C．距离 D．影响 2．The underlined sentence in the 4th paragraph means ________ A．other people may not spend a second thinking about the question again. B．other people may think it is impossible to use air instead of water. C．other people may not think or worry about the question at all. D．other people may think there is no answer to the question. 3．We can infer from the passage that ________. A．the air hand-washing machine will be expensive B．you can wash your hands clean without any electricity C．the students developed the machine by the knowledge of fluid mechanics D．you can buy the “air hand-washing machine” 4．Which of the following is TRUE about the “air hand-washing machine”? A．A company was set up to produce the machine. B．It doesn’t need any water when you wash your hands. C．The idea of the machine came to Chen’s mind suddenly. D．It was invented by two students from Zhejiang University. Unit 7单元话题 In your school, are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn? Of course, the answer is “No” here in China. In America there is a school trying something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are better at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college, while others will not. At this school, students are able to find subjects they are interested in, and possibly even find the field they would like to go into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject like biology, math, a foreign language, or study skills like computer or car repair. Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps students think about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills needed to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose their own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know what they will want to do in the future. What do you think? Would you like to be able to choose your own classes?
