Boya was good at playing guqin. One day, he was playing music. To Boya’s surprise, Ziqi,a woodcutter (樵夫), who happened to pass by, could understand what he wanted to express through his music. After a long talk, they became good friends. Since Boya had to return to his state, they agreed to meet again in the following year. Unluckily, when getting back to visit Ziqi, Boya heard that his friend died of an illness. Boya was so sad and in front of Ziqi’s tomb (墓), he played again the music he had played when they first met. The feeling of the music was so strong that it was as if the rivers and the mountains were crying. When finishing playing, Boya broke his guqin into pieces. From then on, Boya never played again. People in the Song Dynasty built the Guqin Tai in Hanyang to remember the deep friendship between Boya and Ziqi. It became an important part of the local culture. Zhiyin culture has new development now. The famous ancient Chinese classical music piece Gaoshan Liushui was performed during the G20 Summit (峰会) in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.

It is important to have good learning habits if you want to study, and this is especially true when it comes to online learning. Online learning is a process (过程) different from what you will find in a traditional school. The learning environment and methods are different. When studying in a classroom, there is a lot of communication between the students and the teacher, but little interaction (互动) among the students, while online learning helps one student and another to interact very seriously and closely. So one of the online teacher’s roles is to encourage students to interact. Another is to guide the discussion, but not to take total control of students’ thoughts as teachers do in a classroom. So what are the good learning habits you should have in online learning? Here are some good suggestions. First, it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning. You can write down daily tasks and even weekly tasks that you want to complete (完成). By doing so, you will have a good plan for achieving your goals. Second, you should spend much time online as if you were going to regular courses. Also, always try to set aside (留出) extra time to communicate with other students. Besides this, any post you put up online shows who you are. So make sure that you spell every word and write every sentence correctly. Last, hand in your homework on time so that you don’t fall behind. 1．What is important if you want to study online? (no more than 8 words) 2．What are the differences between learning online and that in a traditional school? (no more than 8 words) 3．What are teachers’ roles of online learning? (no more than 10 words) 4．How many online learning habits are mentioned in the passage? (no more than 3 words) 5．Do you think online learning is good? Why or why not? (at least 30 words) 【答案】1．Good learning habits. 2．Different learning environments and methods. 3．Encourage interaction and guide discussion. 4．Five. 5．I think online learning is good because it allows students to learn at their own pace and access resources anytime. However, it lacks face-to-face interaction, which may affect learning effectiveness for some students. 【导语】本文主要讲述了在线学习与传统学校学习的区别以及在线学习中应具备的良好学习习惯。 1．根据“It is important to have good learning habits if you want to study, and this is especially true when it comes to online learning.”可知，关于在线学习很重要的是良好的学习习惯。故填Good learning habits. 2．根据“Online learning is a process (过程) different from what you will find in a traditional school. The learning environment and methods are different.”可知，在线学习与传统学校学习的区别在于学习环境和方式不同。故填Different learning environments and methods. 3．根据“So one of the online teacher’s roles is to encourage students to interact. Another is to guide the discussion,”可知，在线教师的角色是鼓励互动和引导讨论。故填Encourage interaction and guide discussion. 4．根据“First, it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning...Second...Also, always try to set aside (留出) extra time to communicate with other students.”和“Besides this...Last, hand in your homework on time so that you don’t fall behind.”可知，共提到五种在线学习习惯。故填Five. 5．开放性问题，答案不唯一，回答言之有理即可。参考答案为I think online learning is good because it allows students to learn at their own pace and access resources anytime. However, it lacks face-to-face interaction, which may affect learning effectiveness for some students. 阅读回答 Many students ask for advice about improving their English. These are some basic questions. The first question is about real English. Li Hao from Hubei wrote, “I enjoy watching English films and listening to real English songs. But it takes a long time. What do you think?” This is a great way to learn English! Talk about the film or the song with your friends, and guess the meaning of the new words. Just enjoy yourself! The second question is about speaking. Sam from Suzhou wrote, “Our school has a foreign teacher. But I’m shy and can’t speak to her. What should I do?” When I visit China, lots of people in the street say, “Hello! How are you? Where are you from? Do you like China?” These are good questions to start a talk. Take a deep breath (做个深呼吸) and smile! Smiling always helps. The third question is about vocabulary. Oliver from Anhui wrote, “I want to remember all the new words. I write them down, but I forget them quickly. What should I do?” Try to remember eight or ten words a day. Write them on pieces of paper and place them in your bedroom. Say the words when you see them, and change them every day.

Here are some easy ways to develop it. Firstly, ask open-ended questions. Instead of saying, “Is the sky blue?” try, “Why do you think the sky is blue?” This makes children think deeper. Teachers and parents should encourage children to ask questions, too. Secondly, let children explore. For example, take them to parks or museums. When they see interesting things, they will ask, “What is this?” or “How does it work?” Do-it-yourself activities like planting seeds or building blocks also arouse (激发) curiosity. Children can plant little tomato seeds in pots, and they will be excited to see them grow day by day. Thirdly, read fun books. Stories about science, nature, or adventures can arouse children’s curiosity. After reading, you can discuss the book with them. Ask, “What would you do if you were the character (人物)?” A story about a brave explorer can make kids think about what they would discover in a new land. Finally, praise their efforts (努力). When a child asks a good question, say, “That’s a great thought!” This makes him or her feel confident to explore more. Curiosity is like a seed.

At school, students learn different subjects in the classroom. They also have labor practice classes. Among them, the gardening class becomes popular in many schools. Students learn gardening outside the classroom. In the gardening class, students can get fresh air. More importantly, they can learn a lot. When they are young, they always ask their parents, “Where does the rice come from?” In this class, they can get the answer. They can learn to do farm work with their own hands. They can also learn to care about nature, others and themselves. Keeping a school garden is difficult, but teachers are trying to make it work. Some schools are big enough to have some rich fields for students to have labor practice classes. But other schools are small. So teachers turn to gardens and parks near the school.

It was a big event. Artists from the whole town came to show their work. Varun and Meera decided to join in the competition together. They were best friends and shared a love for art, even though their painting styles were different. As the competition went on, the artists brought their ideas to life on canvas (画布). Varun and Meera also poured their hearts into their paintings in the hope of creating something special. But just as Meera was getting into her groove, she ran into a problem. Her old paintbrushes were too worn-out to paint the fine details (细节). She worried that she couldn’t finish her piece perfectly. Seeing her struggle (挣扎), Varun had a choice to make. He could focus on his own painting or help his friend. Without thinking twice, ________________________. With Varun’s brushes, Meera was able to bring her painting to life. Her artwork turned out to be a real work of art and touched everyone’s hearts. Cheers rang out from all around as Meera won the competition.

Boya was good at playing guqin. One day, he was playing music. To Boya’s surprise, Ziqi,a woodcutter (樵夫), who happened to pass by, could understand what he wanted to express through his music. After a long talk, they became good friends. Since Boya had to return to his state, they agreed to meet again in the following year. Unluckily, when getting back to visit Ziqi, Boya heard that his friend died of an illness. Boya was so sad and in front of Ziqi’s tomb (墓), he played again the music he had played when they first met. The feeling of the music was so strong that it was as if the rivers and the mountains were crying. When finishing playing, Boya broke his guqin into pieces. From then on, Boya never played again. People in the Song Dynasty built the Guqin Tai in Hanyang to remember the deep friendship between Boya and Ziqi. It became an important part of the local culture. Zhiyin culture has new development now. The famous ancient Chinese classical music piece Gaoshan Liushui was performed during the G20 Summit (峰会) in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The musical performance showed not only the beauty of traditional Chinese culture, but also China’s wish to develop its friendship with people from around the world. 1．What was Ziqi’s job? 2．What did Ziqi die of? 3．Where did Boya break his guqin? 4．When was the Guqin Tai built? 5．How do you like the ancient Chinese classical music piece Gaoshan Liushui? 阅读短文，根据题目要求完成各小题。 The Friendship of Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi In ancient (古代的) China, there was a famous musician named Yu Boya. He was highly talented in playing the guqin. His music was so beautiful that it could touch people’s hearts. One day, while playing the guqin by the riverside, Yu Boya met Zhong Ziqi. Although Zhong Ziqi was only a woodcutter (伐木者), he was able to understand the feelings and meanings expressed through Yu Boya’s music. Zhong Ziqi could tell when Yu Boya was playing for the mountains or waters. This deep understanding helped to build a strong friendship between them. They became close friends who could communicate (交流) through the language of music. Unluckily, Zhong Ziqi died soon. Yu Boya was really sad. In memory of his dear friend, he broke his guqin, saying never to play it again. Their story is popular through the ages as a symbol of true friendship. It shows that real friends do not necessarily need to be the same. No matter who you are, and what you do, true friendship can bring people together in a way that nothing else can. 1．Why was Yu Boya so famous? 2．Where did Yu Boya meet Zhong Ziqi for the first time? 3．What was Zhong Ziqi’s job? 4．Did Yu Boya play the guqin after Zhong Ziqi died? 5．What can you learn from the story between Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi? Do you know any special subjects at school? Now let’s have a look at them in some countries. Hi, I’m Gina. I live in America. I have a folk dance (民间舞蹈) lesson at school. It is a very important subject for me. I have it on Wednesday morning. I can learn about the history of folk dance and more about our culture. I think Ms. Smith is a good teacher. My name is Eric. I’m from the UK. There is an interesting subject in my school. It is the “Forest School”. We have it on Monday afternoon. Ms. Brown takes us to the forest near the school.

Every year, there’s a talent show in our school. And the theme (主题) of this year’s talent show is dreams. I took part in two competitions this year: cosplay (角色扮演) and dancing. The cosplay competition was the most popular part of the talent show. Students could get dressed up as any characters they liked. Although it was our first time to take part in such a competition, we decided to try our best. When we walked on the stage (舞台), we were very nervous. Later, we made a mistake during the competition so we didn’t win. But we will work harder for the next competition. There are six boys in my team and we’re good at street dance. When the music played, we all felt excited. We danced so well that all of the students and teachers cheered (喝彩) for us. Our team did a good job and won first prize. We felt happy and we learned how to work as a team. This is the most important thing we learned from the competition. Everyone should have a dream.

Can you imagine going to school on a boat? That is just what students at a Bangladeshi boat school do! Every morning, a boat travels along the river and picks them up. When all the students are on board, the boat stops at the side of the river and the class begins. Bangladeshi boat schools aren’t just an interesting idea—they are necessary for many local children. The rainy season in Bangladesh causes heavy flooding every year. Because of high water levels, many children can’t get to school. For years, these children simply missed school during the rainy season. The boat school changed all that. It became a way for children to keep going to school during the yearly floods. A teacher at the boat school said, “Teaching on the boat is a wonderful experience. Children don’t miss classes and fall behind. That makes it easier for them to learn.” The students are excited too. “I love my boat school,” said Dev, a 10-year-old boy. “My teachers and classmates are friendly. And the boat itself is great! It has a computer and a small library—there’s even a playground on the upper level!” His classmate Mila agreed. “I love being on the boat. It fills me with a sense of adventure!” she said. This kind of exciting and creative school is helping Bangladeshi children learn—even in the most difficult weather. 注：每题答案不超过10个单词。 1．How do students at the Bangladeshi boat school get to school in the morning? 2．Why can’t many children get to school during the rainy season? 3．Why does the boat school make it easier for children to learn? 4．How does Dev feel about his teachers? 5．What does Mila like about the boat school? 阅读下面的短文，按要求回答问题。（每题答案不超过10个单词） The aim (目标) of students who come to school is to study. But to study requires (需要) a right way, or you waste the time and the money. The following are the ways of studying. ▲The best time for reading is morning, because in the morning, the air is fresh and the mind is clear. For that reason, we can get good results. ▲In studying, we must have patience (耐心). If we don’t know a text well, we must read it again. We should not read the next one till we learn the first one. ▲When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book, or we can get nothing from the book while we are reading. ▲We must always ask “whys”. If it is not well understood, write it down and ask our teachers, our parents or friends. In any possible way, we must know it and what we’ve learned can be used well and made better.

Online learning is a process (过程) different from what you will find in a traditional school. The learning environment and methods are different. When studying in a classroom, there is a lot of communication between the students and the teacher, but little interaction (互动) among the students, while online learning helps one student and another to interact very seriously and closely. So one of the online teacher’s roles is to encourage students to interact. Another is to guide the discussion, but not to take total control of students’ thoughts as teachers do in a classroom. So what are the good learning habits you should have in online learning? Here are some good suggestions. First, it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning. You can write down daily tasks and even weekly tasks that you want to complete (完成). By doing so, you will have a good plan for achieving your goals. Second, you should spend much time online as if you were going to regular courses. Also, always try to set aside (留出) extra time to communicate with other students. Besides this, any post you put up online shows who you are. So make sure that you spell every word and write every sentence correctly. Last, hand in your homework on time so that you don’t fall behind. 1．What is important if you want to study online? (no more than 8 words) 2．What are the differences between learning online and that in a traditional school? (no more than 8 words) 3．What are teachers’ roles of online learning? (no more than 10 words) 4．How many online learning habits are mentioned in the passage? (no more than 3 words) 5．Do you think online learning is good? Why or why not? (at least 30 words) 阅读回答 Many students ask for advice about improving their English. These are some basic questions. The first question is about real English. Li Hao from Hubei wrote, “I enjoy watching English films and listening to real English songs. But it takes a long time. What do you think?” This is a great way to learn English! Talk about the film or the song with your friends, and guess the meaning of the new words. Just enjoy yourself! The second question is about speaking. Sam from Suzhou wrote, “Our school has a foreign teacher. But I’m shy and can’t speak to her. What should I do?” When I visit China, lots of people in the street say, “Hello! How are you? Where are you from? Do you like China?” These are good questions to start a talk. Take a deep breath (做个深呼吸) and smile! Smiling always helps. The third question is about vocabulary. Oliver from Anhui wrote, “I want to remember all the new words. I write them down, but I forget them quickly. What should I do?” Try to remember eight or ten words a day. Write them on pieces of paper and place them in your bedroom. Say the words when you see them, and change them every day. And when you`re shopping, how about counting the English words, or saying the English names for everything you see? 1．What`s the passage mainly about? 2．What is the great way to learn English according to the writer? 3．Who wrote the passage, a Chinese or a foreigner? 4．How many English words should be remembered a day? 5．How many basic questions does the writer talk about in this passage? 阅读短文，回答短文后的问题。 Body flipbooks (手翻书) are fun.

Here are some easy ways to develop it. Firstly, ask open-ended questions. Instead of saying, “Is the sky blue?” try, “Why do you think the sky is blue?” This makes children think deeper. Teachers and parents should encourage children to ask questions, too. Secondly, let children explore. For example, take them to parks or museums. When they see interesting things, they will ask, “What is this?” or “How does it work?” Do-it-yourself activities like planting seeds or building blocks also arouse (激发) curiosity. Children can plant little tomato seeds in pots, and they will be excited to see them grow day by day. Thirdly, read fun books. Stories about science, nature, or adventures can arouse children’s curiosity. After reading, you can discuss the book with them. Ask, “What would you do if you were the character (人物)?” A story about a brave explorer can make kids think about what they would discover in a new land. Finally, praise their efforts (努力). When a child asks a good question, say, “That’s a great thought!” This makes him or her feel confident to explore more. Curiosity is like a seed. With the right care, it will grow into a love for learning. 1．What can make children think deeper according to the passage? 2．Where can we take children to explore? 3．What kinds of books can arouse children’s curiosity? 4．How many ways to develop curiosity are there in the passage? 5．Which English word means “表扬” in the passage? At school, students learn different subjects in the classroom. They also have labor practice classes. Among them, the gardening class becomes popular in many schools. Students learn gardening outside the classroom. In the gardening class, students can get fresh air. More importantly, they can learn a lot. When they are young, they always ask their parents, “Where does the rice come from?” In this class, they can get the answer. They can learn to do farm work with their own hands. They can also learn to care about nature, others and themselves. Keeping a school garden is difficult, but teachers are trying to make it work. Some schools are big enough to have some rich fields for students to have labor practice classes. But other schools are small. So teachers turn to gardens and parks near the school. Students often have a lot of fun during the class. At first, teachers decide what to plant. Then they plant them with students. Tomatoes are students’ favourites because it’s nice to get a tomato, wash it and eat it right in the garden. Some vegetables are easy to plant, but others need a long time. This teaches students hard work pays off. 1．Where do students take the gardening class according to the second paragraph? 2．What can students learn to care about in the gardening class? 3．How do other small schools take gardening classes? 4．Why are tomatoes students’ favourites? 5．What do you learn from gardening classes? 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
