Whether you’re cleaning your room, sweeping the floor, or washing your clothes, you might feel the same way you do after exercising. This got me thinking—why don’t chores (家务活) count as exercise?
1 When I asked them if doing chores counts as exercise, they told me that all movement is good for health. 2 For example, cleaning your room can raise your heart rate (心率) to the same level as light jogging. With this in mind, trainers say you can totally make the most of your chores as exercise. If you do it right, they can even take the place of your exercise for the day. Here’s what to do.
Instead of just walking down the street to throw the rubbish, try to walk faster or run. When going back, you could climb the stairs instead of taking the lift. 3 If you feel tired, remind yourself that you’re making the most of these movements while completing chores. This will encourage you to walk and move faster like you are exercising.
4 Ellen Thompson, a personal trainer, says you’ll still need a plan to keep your body moving for a certain amount of time to truly improve your health. So if there aren’t enough chores for you to do to reach your goal, do some more exercise.
A.This way, you turn a simple chore into a quick exercise.
B.And every little bit of movement helps, including chores.
C. To find out more, I asked some trainers a few questions.
D.Taking exercise while doing chores is a good way for you to save time.
E. However, trainers also agree that chores shouldn’t be your only form (形式) of exercise.
Do you want to do chores as exercise? Why?(不超过15词)
5
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.A 4.E 5.Yes, I do. Because it can save time and keep me healthy.(答案不唯一,合理即可)
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章探讨了家务活是否可以被视为锻炼的问题,并给出了如何将家务活转化为锻炼的建议。
1.根据后文“When I asked them if doing chores counts as exercise, they told me that all movement is good for health.”可知,作者向一些人询问了做家务是否算作锻炼的问题,选项C“为了了解更多,我问了一些教练几个问题。”符合语境。故选C。
2.根据后文“For example, cleaning your room can raise your heart rate (心率) to the same level as light jogging.”可知,做家务也能带来运动效果,选项B“任何一点运动都有帮助,包括做家务。”符合语境。故选B。
3.根据前文“Instead of just walking down the street to throw the rubbish, try to walk faster or run. When going back, you could climb the stairs instead of taking the lift.”可知,作者建议将扔垃圾等简单家务变成快速锻炼,选项A“这样,你就把一个简单的家务变成了一个快速的锻炼。”符合语境。故选A。
4.根据后文“Ellen Thompson, a personal trainer, says you’ll still need a plan to keep your body moving for a certain amount of time to truly improve your health. So if there aren’t enough chores for you to do to reach your goal, do some more exercise.”可知,教练认为家务不应该成为唯一的锻炼形式,选项E“然而,教练们也认为家务不应该是你唯一的锻炼形式。”符合语境。故选E。
5.开放题,回答合理即可,注意字数限制。故填Yes, I do. Because it can save time and keep me healthy.

Do you like to read books and enjoy fun stories? Many kids and adults love reading. Some people like to read in the morning when they wake up and feel full of energy. 1 But many people prefer to wait until bedtime, when the world around them falls silent and nothing comes between them and their book. Some say they love falling asleep with a good story and interesting pictures in their minds. So, is it better to read before bed? 2
Reading before bed can help you relax. It is better than watching TV or playing on a phone. The bright lights from screens can make it hard to fall asleep. But books are different. They help your body calm down. Reading can also make you feel less worried or scared. It’s great to fall asleep reading after a long day of school, sports, and other activities. 3
No, because reading at night can keep you awake.
Not every book should be read at night. If you read a scary story, you might want to keep reading and not want to go to sleep. Then, you may feel tired the next day! Reading in the morning or during the day can be better. You can also read during break time at school or after your homework is done. 4 Either way, reading during the day means you’ll get more out of the book. Your mind is fresh, and you can understand the story better. If you read when you’re sleepy, you can miss important plot points or themes—or even forget them and have to reread pages the next day.
A.Yes, because it’s very relaxing.
B.You can feel peaceful and ready for sleep.
C. That way, you enjoy the story and still get a good night’s sleep.
D.You can discuss the story you are reading with your classmates during the day.
E. Others pick up a book once they’re done with their homework or right after dinner.
Is the time before going to bed the best time for you to read? Why or why not? (Answer within 15 words)
5
【答案】1.E 2.A 3.B 4.C 5.Yes, because it helps me relax and sleep better.(答案不唯一,合理即可)
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章探讨了睡前阅读是否是最佳时间的问题,分析了睡前阅读的利弊,并给出了阅读时间的建议。
1.根据“Some people like to read in the morning when they wake up and feel full of energy.”可知,有些人喜欢在早上醒来,感到精力充沛时阅读。此空应与前一句构成并列关系,继续描述其他人的阅读时间。E选项“Others pick up a book once they’re done with their homework or right after dinner.”意为“另一些人一完成作业或晚饭后就拿起一本书。”符合语境,故选E。
2.根据下文“Reading before bed can help you relax.”可知,本段主要讨论睡前阅读的好处,开头应是一个引导性的问题,引出下文。A选项“Yes, because it’s very relaxing.”意为“是的,因为它很放松。”,虽然是一个陈述句,但在此处可以作为引导性问题后的回答,且其内容与下文讨论的睡前阅读放松效果相呼应,同时,考虑到文章结构,此空后直接跟了关于睡前阅读好处的描述,A选项以简洁的方式肯定了睡前阅读的好处,并引导了下文的具体阐述,符合语境。故选A。
3.根据“Reading can also make you feel less worried or scared. It’s great to fall asleep reading after a long day of school, sports, and other activities.”可知,阅读也可以让你感到不那么担心或害怕。经过一天的学校学习、运动和其他活动后,边读书边入睡是很好的。B选项“You can feel peaceful and ready for sleep.”意为“你可以感到平静并准备好入睡。”,与上文提到的阅读带来的放松效果相呼应,符合语境。故选B。
4.根据“Reading in the morning or during the day can be better. You can also read during break time at school or after your homework is done.”可知,早上或白天阅读可能更好。你也可以在学校休息时间或完成作业后阅读。C选项“That way, you enjoy the story and still get a good night’s sleep.”意为“这样,你就可以享受故事,同时仍然能睡个好觉。”,与上文提到的选择合适的阅读时间以确保良好的睡眠相呼应,符合语境。故选C。
5.本题为开放性问题,答案不唯一,合理即可。故填Yes, because it helps me relax and sleep better.

Many people like to use fireworks during special times, like holidays or big parties. When fireworks go off, the sky is full of bright colors. People enjoy the loud bangs, the flashing lights, and the fun sounds. Lots of people cheer and smile while watching.

Should fireworks be banned (取缔)? Here are the different opinions of Alan and Sally.

Fireworks are also very noisy. The loud sounds can scare animals like dogs, cats, and birds. Some people also feel very nervous or upset when they hear the noises. This makes them feel bad during times that should be happy.
Also, fireworks can hurt the environment. They make a lot of smoke and leave behind plastic and other trash. This is not good for the air, water, or land.
Alan: 3
Many people love fireworks, and they find fireworks beautiful and exciting to watch. Fireworks are used in many countries as part of big celebrations, like New Year’s parties and festivals. They are a fun tradition for many families.
4 If fireworks are not allowed, they could lose their jobs.
Instead of banning fireworks, we can make rules. For example, we can only use fireworks in special places and at certain times. We can also try to make fireworks quieter.
A.Not everyone loves fireworks.
B.No, because they’re too important to people.
C. Some people think we should stop using them.
D.Also, some people have jobs making or selling fireworks.
E. That means anyone could use them, even if they don’t know how to stay safe.
5. Which person’s opinion do you agree with more, Sally’s or Alan’s? Why? (Answer within 15 words)
5
【答案】1.C 2.E 3.B 4.D 5.I agree with Sally because fireworks hurt people and scare animals./I agree with Alan because fireworks are fun and part of family tradition.
【导语】本文主要介绍了对于是否应该取缔烟花,Sally和Alan所持有的不同观点。
1.根据“Should fireworks be banned (取缔)? ”以及后文Sally阐述烟花的危害可知,有些人是支持取缔烟花的,选项C“表明了有些人认为应该停止使用烟花(即取缔)”与之匹配。故选C。
2.根据“In some places, people over 18 can buy fireworks without asking for special permission (许可). ”可知,在一些地方,18岁以上的人无需特别许可就能购买烟花,这意味着任何人都有可能使用烟花,即便他们不知道如何安全使用,选项E“这意味着任何人都可以使用它们,即使他们不知道如何保证安全”与之匹配。故选E。
3.根据“Many people love fireworks, and they find fireworks beautiful and exciting to watch.”以及后文Alan阐述烟花对人们的重要性可知,Alan认为不应该取缔烟花,选项B“不,因为它们对人们来说太重要了”与之匹配。故选B。

The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Cold Dew (寒露), the 17th solar term of the year, falls on Oct 8th this year. At this time, temperatures are much lower than during White Dew in most areas of China. The dew is greater and colder and there will be less rain. Autumn crops will be ripe.
Here are four things you should know about Cold Dew. 1
Temperatures drop a lot in October. When the cold air meets autumn rain, plenty of water vapor in the air quickly gets to the point where it can’t hold more, and then it turns into misty rain or fog. When the humidity (湿度) is high, there will be foggy regions formed in many areas of China. 2
People always say that fishing in shallow water in autumn makes sense. That’s because during the Cold Dew period, temperatures decrease quickly and sunshine doesn’t reach deep water thoroughly. Fish swim to shallow water areas where the water temperature is clearly higher. 3
Chrysanthemum is the iconic flower of Cold Dew. To prevent autumn dryness, many areas in China have the custom of drinking chrysanthemum wine. This is a tradition of the Double Ninth Festival, which often falls around Cold Dew. According to ancient records, drinking wine made with chrysanthemums, poria cocos and other herbs keeps people young for a long time.
4
During Cold Dew, North China takes on a look of late autumn with white clouds, red leaves and early frost. On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, people often climb hills with cornels, a kind of plant. This custom aims to get rid of bad things, and started in the Eastern Han Dynasty
A.A great time for hiking
B.Foggy autumn
C. Season for fishing
D.Season for swimming
E. Season for drinking chrysanthemum wine
5. Do you think autumn is a colorful season? What do you do in this season?(不超过20词)
5
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.E 4.A 5.Yes, I do. I climb hills/go hiking/go fishing.
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了中国传统节气“寒露”的气候特点及相关习俗,包括多雾天气、钓鱼、饮菊花酒和登高等活动。
1.根据“When the cold air meets autumn rain…there will be foggy regions formed in many areas of China.”可知,当冷空气遇到秋雨时,中国许多地区会形成雾区,故寒露时节多雾。选项B“雾蒙蒙的秋天”符合语境。故选B。
2.根据“fishing in shallow water in autumn makes sense…Fish swim to shallow water areas.”可知,秋季在浅水区钓鱼很合理,因为鱼类会游到水温较高的浅水区,即寒露是钓鱼的好时节。选项C“捕鱼的时节”符合语境。故选C。
3.根据“To prevent autumn dryness…have the custom of drinking chrysanthemum wine”和“drinking wine made with chrysanthemums…keeps people young for a long time”可知,寒露时节有喝菊花酒防秋燥的习俗,且菊花酒有养生作用。选项E“喝菊花酒的时节”符合语境。故选E。
4.根据“On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, people often climb hills with cornels”和“this custom aims to get rid of bad things”可知,寒露前后的重阳节有登山习俗,登山属于徒步活动。选项A“徒步的好时节”符合语境。故选A。
5.本题答案不唯一,合理即可。例如:是的,我认为。我爬山/徒步旅行/钓鱼。故填Yes, I do. I climb hills/go hiking/go fishing.

1
The biggest problem most people face in learning a new language is their own fear. They worry that they won’t say things correctly, so they don’t talk at all. Don’t do that. The fastest way to learn something is to do it—again and again until you learn it. Don’t let a little fear stop you from getting what you want.

Let English be around you.
Take notes in English, put English books around your room, watch English news, movies and television programs and listen to English music. Speak English with your friends whenever you can. Then you will begin thinking in English.
3
Practice makes perfect. The best way to learn any language is to practice every day. Studying things like grammar and vocabulary can help you really improve your knowledge of any language.
4
Finally, many people think that exercises and tests aren’t much fun. However, by completing exercises and taking tests, you can really improve your English. If you test yourself, you will know how much you are progressing.
A.Speak without fear.
B.Use all of your resources.
C. Talk with English speakers.
D.Do exercises and take tests.
E. Practice as often as possible.

“I’m a teenager and I don’t have arguments (争吵) with my parents.” Is this you? If it is, you’re one in a million! Actually, it is common for your parents to disagree with you when you ask for something. 1 .
★ Don’t get angry! Your parents aren’t saying no without reasons. 2 . If they don’t give you an explanation, please ask them why politely!
★ Explain why you ask for something. Don’t just say, “Can I have a new phone?” Give the reasons like this “ 3 ”. This helps them understand you better and make the possibility of getting it goes up!
★ 4 Imagine that you ask for a new phone, but you spend all your pocket money on clothes. It’s not hard to predict (预测) your parents’ reply! But the situation is completely different if you say, “I’m saving all my money for a phone but not enough. Could you please give me some for doing housework?”

Whether you’re cleaning your room, sweeping the floor, or washing your clothes, you might feel the same way you do after exercising. This got me thinking—why don’t chores (家务活) count as exercise?
1 When I asked them if doing chores counts as exercise, they told me that all movement is good for health. 2 For example, cleaning your room can raise your heart rate (心率) to the same level as light jogging. With this in mind, trainers say you can totally make the most of your chores as exercise. If you do it right, they can even take the place of your exercise for the day. Here’s what to do.
Instead of just walking down the street to throw the rubbish, try to walk faster or run. When going back, you could climb the stairs instead of taking the lift. 3 If you feel tired, remind yourself that you’re making the most of these movements while completing chores. This will encourage you to walk and move faster like you are exercising.
4 Ellen Thompson, a personal trainer, says you’ll still need a plan to keep your body moving for a certain amount of time to truly improve your health. So if there aren’t enough chores for you to do to reach your goal, do some more exercise.
A.This way, you turn a simple chore into a quick exercise.
B.And every little bit of movement helps, including chores.
C. To find out more, I asked some trainers a few questions.
D.Taking exercise while doing chores is a good way for you to save time.
E. However, trainers also agree that chores shouldn’t be your only form (形式) of exercise.
Do you want to do chores as exercise? Why?(不超过15词)

When you ask someone a question in English, there are a lot of different phrases that will help you sound more polite. Here are some helpful tips on how to be polite when you ask questions or make requests!
1
If you speak with a low voice or don’t change your inflection (变调), you may sound direct or unfriendly. Smiling while you’re talking can help you naturally have a cheery tone.
Let the other person speak.
As the person gives you their answer, give them your full attention. 2 Don’t think of what to say next while the person is talking or else, you might miss important information they’re giving you.
Do something to show that you’re listening.
Turn your body toward the person you’re talking to and slightly lean closer to show that you’re interested in what they have to say. As they’re talking, let them know that you’re following the conversation. 3
Follow up the conversation with more questions.
If you want to continue the conversation, ask the person something else. 4 In this way, you can get more information. For example, if you ask “Could you please tell me where the nearest bus stop is?” and the person answers “On Main Street”, you could then ask,” Would you mind telling me which direction that is?”
A.Speak in a friendlier, higher tone (语气).
B.Always think carefully about what to say next.
C. You can even repeat things the person has said.
D.Use their answer as a jumping-off point (出发点) for your next question.
E. Wait until the person finishes answering so you can get their full answer.

Do you like to read books and enjoy fun stories? Many kids and adults love reading. Some people like to read in the morning when they wake up and feel full of energy. 1 But many people prefer to wait until bedtime, when the world around them falls silent and nothing comes between them and their book. Some say they love falling asleep with a good story and interesting pictures in their minds. So, is it better to read before bed? 2
Reading before bed can help you relax. It is better than watching TV or playing on a phone. The bright lights from screens can make it hard to fall asleep. But books are different. They help your body calm down. Reading can also make you feel less worried or scared. It’s great to fall asleep reading after a long day of school, sports, and other activities. 3
No, because reading at night can keep you awake.
Not every book should be read at night. If you read a scary story, you might want to keep reading and not want to go to sleep. Then, you may feel tired the next day! Reading in the morning or during the day can be better. You can also read during break time at school or after your homework is done. 4 Either way, reading during the day means you’ll get more out of the book. Your mind is fresh, and you can understand the story better. If you read when you’re sleepy, you can miss important plot points or themes—or even forget them and have to reread pages the next day.
A.Yes, because it’s very relaxing.
B.You can feel peaceful and ready for sleep.
C. That way, you enjoy the story and still get a good night’s sleep.
D.You can discuss the story you are reading with your classmates during the day.
E. Others pick up a book once they’re done with their homework or right after dinner.
Is the time before going to bed the best time for you to read? Why or why not? (Answer within 15 words)

Many people like to use fireworks during special times, like holidays or big parties. When fireworks go off, the sky is full of bright colors. People enjoy the loud bangs, the flashing lights, and the fun sounds. Lots of people cheer and smile while watching. Although they can be fun to watch, fireworks can be dangerous if not used correctly, and the loud noises can scare people and animals. 1 Others believe we should only change the rules. Should fireworks be banned (取缔)? Here are the different opinions of Alan and Sally.
Sally: Yes, because they’re dangerous and polluting.
Fireworks can hurt people if not used safely. They can burn your skin or even cause bigger injuries (受伤). In some places, people over 18 can buy fireworks without asking for special permission (许可). 2 .
Fireworks are also very noisy. The loud sounds can scare animals like dogs, cats, and birds. Some people also feel very nervous or upset when they hear the noises. This makes them feel bad during times that should be happy.
Also, fireworks can hurt the environment. They make a lot of smoke and leave behind plastic and other trash. This is not good for the air, water, or land.
Alan: 3
Many people love fireworks, and they find fireworks beautiful and exciting to watch. Fireworks are used in many countries as part of big celebrations, like New Year’s parties and festivals. They are a fun tradition for many families.
4 If fireworks are not allowed, they could lose their jobs.
Instead of banning fireworks, we can make rules. For example, we can only use fireworks in special places and at certain times. We can also try to make fireworks quieter.
A.Not everyone loves fireworks.
B.No, because they’re too important to people.
C. Some people think we should stop using them.
D.Also, some people have jobs making or selling fireworks.
E. That means anyone could use them, even if they don’t know how to stay safe.

阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项(其中一项是多余选项),并回答最后小题。
The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Cold Dew (寒露), the 17th solar term of the year, falls on Oct 8th this year. At this time, temperatures are much lower than during White Dew in most areas of China. The dew is greater and colder and there will be less rain. Autumn crops will be ripe.
Here are four things you should know about Cold Dew. 1
Temperatures drop a lot in October. When the cold air meets autumn rain, plenty of water vapor in the air quickly gets to the point where it can’t hold more, and then it turns into misty rain or fog. When the humidity (湿度) is high, there will be foggy regions formed in many areas of China. 2
People always say that fishing in shallow water in autumn makes sense. That’s because during the Cold Dew period, temperatures decrease quickly and sunshine doesn’t reach deep water thoroughly. Fish swim to shallow water areas where the water temperature is clearly higher. 3
Chrysanthemum is the iconic flower of Cold Dew. To prevent autumn dryness, many areas in China have the custom of drinking chrysanthemum wine. This is a tradition of the Double Ninth Festival, which often falls around Cold Dew. According to ancient records, drinking wine made with chrysanthemums, poria cocos and other herbs keeps people young for a long time.
4
During Cold Dew, North China takes on a look of late autumn with white clouds, red leaves and early frost. On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, people often climb hills with cornels, a kind of plant. This custom aims to get rid of bad things, and started in the Eastern Han Dynasty
A.A great time for hiking
B.Foggy autumn
C. Season for fishing
D.Season for swimming
E. Season for drinking chrysanthemum wine
5. Do you think autumn is a colorful season? What do you do in this season?(不超过20词)
