In primary school, a cooking class teaches simple and safe cooking ways. After we go to middle school, classes like food technology（工艺） and design technology let us learn cooking arts and design.At my school, design technology, starting from Grade 7, is my favourite. It allows students to try different materials and ways to make things like vases. Lily, 14, the UK The UK's labour education pays attention to learning skills. Compared with it, ours focuses on volunteer activities. After school, our volunteer groups will do a lot of things. We often do some cleaning and help the lower-grade students and anyone else in need. We will also hold some charity（慈善） sales to raise money to help the students in poor areas.Among all the volunteer work, the charity sale is my favourite. Ian, 15, Singapore We had been looking forward to that day for months. Early in the morning, together with Ms Yang, we rushed to our campus farm with excitement. Memories（回忆） of our hard work came across my mind — searching for information online, working with teachers and classmates, asking farmers for advice, preparing the soil, planting, watering...We couldn't wait to pick pumpkins（南瓜）. When it was my turn, I checked the colour first. Ms Yang told us the great pumpkins were bright orange. Then, carefully, I cut the stem of the chosen one with a knife. Holding a big one in my hand, I felt a strong sense of happiness. I grew vegetables by hand successfully! Seeing our smile, Ms Yang said to us, “Labour plays an important role in your lives. ____” From that day on, I understood the meaning of labour.

Elephants are one of the largest animals in the world. But they have been in danger for many years. It is reported that in early November 28, 2024, Asian elephants crossed the Ningjiang Highway and went into Ning'er County in Pu'er City, Yunnan Province. This is the largest number of elephants going into Ning'er County since September 2024. In China, Asian elephants are protected species. The number of them grows from about 180 in the 1990s to around 300 now. As the number grows, they need more space to live in. These large animals often go to nearby villages for food and water. They sometimes share the same places with people around them. This brings some problems between people and elephants. So, solving the problems becomes an important part of elephant protection work. The IFAW(国际爱护动物基金会)started an Asian elephant protection project in 2000. It helped people live with elephants peacefully(和平地). It set up the first warning monitoring system)预警监测系统)in China and helped more than 50,000 people.

D.About 2,000. 3.Why are there problems between people and elephants?( ) A.Because elephants make noise. B.Because people don't feed elephants. C.Because they sometimes share the same places. D.Because some people don't like elephants. 4.What's the best title for the text?( ) A.The Life of Elephants B.The IFAW Project C.Asian Elephants' Problems D.Asian Elephants' Protection Work 三、阅读表达。 As the saying goes, “Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand li.” Hundreds of years ago, some famous people already travelled around China and they got a lot. Xu Xiake, a geographer and writer in the Ming Dynasty, spent more than thirty years on the road four hundred years ago. With his mother's encouragement, Xu Xiake travelled around China. He met with many troubles on the road. But he never stopped travelling and writing. Xu Xiake was on the road all his life, and his travel notes covered as much as his knowledge. His 600,000-word travel notes finally came out（出版） in 1776, about 135 years after he died. China Tourism Day falls on May 19 because he started The Travels of Xu Xiake on that day. Marco Polo, a businessman born in 1254 in Italy, is known as a travel king in the West. In 1271, Marco Polo with his father and uncle set foot on the road to China. They travelled east along the Silk Road. It took them four years. Along the way, they met bad weather, shortages（短缺）of food and water and so on.They arrived in Shangdu in Inner Mongolia in 1275. Kublai Khan gave them a warm welcome there and took them to Dadu. Marco Polo's hard journey created one of the world's best sellers The Travels of Marco Polo. Medieval（中世纪的） readers fell in love with Polo's wonderful words and got to know China and Middle Asia. 阅读短文，简略回答问题。 1.Who encouraged Xu Xiake to travel around China? _______________________________________________________________________________________2.Why does China Tourism Day fall on May 19? _______________________________________________________________________________________3.How long did it take Marco Polo to travel to China? _______________________________________________________________________________________4.What book did Marco Polo write according to his hard journey? _______________________________________________________________________________________5.What can you learn from Xu Xiake and Marco Polo?
