It helps us know what we want to do in the future and how to achieve our goals. Here are some steps to make a career plan.     First, understand yourself. Think about your interests, skills and strengths. For example, if you like working with children and are good at communicating, you might consider becoming a teacher. If you are interested in science and enjoy doing experiments, a career in research could be a good choice.     Second, research different careers. Learn about the requirements, working conditions and development prospects (前景) of different jobs. You can read books, search online or talk to people who work in the fields you are interested in. This can help you make a more informed decision.     Third, set short-term and long-term goals. Short-term goals are things you want to achieve in one or two years, such as learning a new skill or getting a certificate (证书). Long-term goals are what you want to achieve in five or ten years, like becoming a manager or starting your own business.     Fourth, make an action plan. Once you have set your goals, you need to figure out what steps to take to achieve them. For example, if your goal is to become a doctor, you need to study hard in school, get into a good medical college and complete your training.     Finally, review and adjust (调整) your plan regularly. As you grow and change, your interests and goals may also change. It’s important to review your career plan from time to time and make adjustments if necessary. 1．What is an important part of personal growth? 2．What should you think about when understanding yourself? 3．How can you research different careers? 4．What are short-term goals? 5．Why should you review and adjust your plan regularly?

However, there are different kinds of Xuan paper in different places, and Lianzhi paper from Fujian is one of them. Going back 400 years, Lianzhi paper was made by hand using bamboo. As reported by Fujian Daily, Lianzhi paper weighs only 19 g/m2, but it is strong. Thanks to this, Lianzhi paper was listed as a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage (省级非物质文化遗产) in Fujian in 2008. Deng Jinkun, a 54-year-old handmade paper lover, became the 11th generation inheritor (传承人) of Lianzhi paper in 2005. Deng said making Lianzhi paper has 72 steps, including cutting bamboo, soaking (浸湿), making pulp (纸浆), and drying. What makes it special is its bleaching (漂白) skill. “In May each year, bamboo is cut off, and soaked in lime (石灰) twice. The bamboo is then steamed (蒸) at a high temperature. After that, it’s bleached on the mountain for four months,” Deng said. “This step makes it white,” Deng added. Besides its traditional art, Deng also brought in new ideas at the same time. “Traditionally, we needed two people to bring the pulp together. Now, our Lianzhi paper needs only one person because we use a rope to hang one side,” Deng said. When they bake the paper, the baking wall is also uncommon. According to Deng, other places use lime to make the wall. “After a trip to the University of Science and Technology of China in 2018, I decided to use tabia (三合土) to make the wall so that it could last longer,” Deng said. After it is built, the tabia baking wall can be used to make paper for 40 years. 1．How was Lianzhi paper made 400 years ago? 2．When did Deng Jinkun become the 11th generation inheritor of Lianzhi paper? 3．Which step makes Lianzhi paper white? 4．Why did Deng Jinkun use tabia to make the baking wall? 5．What do you think of Deng Jinkun? Why? 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。每小题答案不超过8个单词。 Do you know leaf painting? It has a history of more than 2,000 years in China. Ding Li is 27 years old. He comes from Xianning City, Hubei Province.

Wax printing (蜡染) is an ancient way of producing dyed textiles (染色纺织品). It is an important part of traditional Chinese culture. It is believed that wax printing appeared in China as early as the Qin and Han dynasties and got popular in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

Then use a special knife-like tool to spread melted (融化的) wax on the pictures. After that, put the cloth into a dye bath so that the unwaxed part take on the colour. Finally, wash the dyed cloth in boiling water and wait for the wax to melt, leaving clear pictures in white on the dyed cloth.

Some people may get hurt if there are too many jokes. When you show you can’t accept the jokes, the jokes might get worse. We should consider the relationships when joking. Close friends usually enjoy teasing (开玩笑). Healthy teasing can usually make people relaxed. When both sides know it’s just joking, they can understand each other better. The environment is also important for close relationships. It doesn’t matter when your sister calls your nickname (绰号) at home. However, it’s quite bad when a classmate shouts it out at school. When making a joke, we often see the funny side of it. But others may see it in a different way. Sometimes we forget the other person may not find it funny. People have different life experiences, so they understand jokes differently. For example, imagine someone not swimming at a pool party. Others might tease him or her about being unable to swim. But maybe that person is just afraid of water. Keep in mind that people may have their own reasons for not seeing the funny side. It’s a good way to build good friendships by respecting others. In daily life, we should pay attention to our words when playing jokes. 1．What may happen if there are too many jokes? 2．How do people usually feel about healthy teasing? 3．What is also important for close relationships? 4．Why do people understand jokes differently? 5．How can we build good relationships?

Over the course of 134 days, he visited 68 counties and cities in 24 provinces and regions across China, and read 40 books. His journey was inspired (启发) by a screen time notification (通知) from his iPhone that he was spending almost seven hours a day on his phone each day. He was shocked. Then he had an idea of leaving his phone and computer at home to face the challenges of a digital-free (无数字化的) life. Last Nov. 27, Yang set off from Taiyuan with a large backpack carrying clothing, two cameras, maps, his ID card, bank cards, cash, pens, a notebook, and three books. During the trip, Yang experienced lots of challenges. Without a phone, he couldn’t book a hotel online. He wasn’t allowed in the Hubei Provincial Museum because the museum required reservation (预约) in advance and he couldn’t reserve a ticket online. There were lots of situations like this. On the other hand, leaving his phone and computer behind, Yang got really rewarding experiences. Without travel bloggers, books and museums became his guides. In Hunan province, Yang retraced (重走) Shen Congwen’s trip in Xiangxi Sanji by boat along the Yuanjiang River about 90 years ago. After reading historical documents, Yang followed those explorers’ footsteps and visited Taklimakan Desert in southern Xinjiang. Also, because writing letters was his only way to keep in touch with family and friends, he rediscovered the pleasure of writing letters. Yang returned home on April 9. He didn’t want to turn his phone or computer on, because he got used to a quiet, peaceful life without the Internet. His old life soon returned. But now, Yang keeps a degree of distance (一定的距离) from the Internet. He’s busy making a documentary (纪录片) about his journey. “I hope to offer a different perspective (视角) on seeing the world, whether on screen or through my words,” Yang says. 1．How did he take the trip last year? 2．Where did he set off? 3．What became his guides? 4．Would you like to have such a trip without the Internet? Why or why not? (Please give at least two reasons.) Friendship has no borders (国界). Brynn Castle, an American student, made friends with a Chinese student named Zhang Xinyi because of her exchange (交流) trip. Here is their story. In April 2024, Castle came to China with some American students. They reached Beijing first, and then they took a trip to Hebei. Before leaving China, Castle visited Zhang’s home. “It is interesting to see a Chinese home. There are some differences between their house and my home,” Castle said. “In my home, we have lots of decorations (装饰品). But Chinese people like to put some gifts or family photos in their living room. And most of their decorations are red. They think the color can bring them good luck.” “Zhang’s parents show me great kindness and try their best to make me feel at home. Before going to their house, they showed me around their neighborhood and told me some historical stories about it. Then they took me to a restaurant for lunch. They ordered many delicious dishes,” Castle said. When they got to Zhang’s home, Castle told many interesting stories to Zhang. Then the two girls found they truly had so much to talk about Chinese history. As they said goodbye late in the evening, Zhang gave a Chinese history book to Castle as a gift. She hoped it could help Castle know more about China. Both Zhang and Castle hoped they could meet again one day.

Unit 6单元话题 What would it be like to live on Mars? The movie The Martian has given us some answers. It follows an astronaut named Mark who is left on Mars for nearly two years. In order to live on Mars, Mark finds a way to grow potatoes in a special room. He wears a spacesuit when he is outside his “home”. However, Mark has to face many difficulties, such as dust storms. In fact, just like in the movie, walking on the surface of Mars without a suit is a bad idea. Your skin would be peeled away like pieces of burning paper; your blood would turn to steam (水蒸气) and you would die within half a minute. There is bad radiation (辐射) and dust storms. So people would most likely live in underground homes. If technology improves, more people and construction (建筑) materials may be sent to Mars. Only then could people build houses on the surface. And life would start to look like that on Earth. On Mars, people could grow crops, such as wheat and potatoes, in special boxes. They could help make oxygen for humans to breathe like trees do on Earth. But it won’t be an easy thing. How can people move around Mars? People have suggested cars, bikes, trains, cable cars and planes. However, there are no official plans saying exactly what humans will use. 1．What does Mark do to live on Mars? 2．How long would a person live on Mars at most without a spacesuit? 3．What is “oxygen” used for, according to the passage? 4．Will life on Mars be similar to that on Earth with the improvement of technology? 5．Which way of moving around Mars (such as cars, bikes, cable cars) do you like best? Why? When you look up into the night sky, you can see the moon. But do you know that you’re only seeing one side of the moon? The other side, the unknown face of the moon has long been a secret to us. But now, we have a chance to see what’s on the far side. On January 3rd, China’s Chang’e 4 probe (探测器) landed on the far side of the moon after a 26-day journey. It is the first probe in history to land there. Chang’e 4 probe has already done a lot of things on the moon. It has sent back three photos of the landing places by camera. Through it, the surface of the moon can be clearly seen. “It’s a fine, dirty and sandy environment, ” said one of the researchers. One of its tasks is to see whether humans can grow food and other plants there. Chang’e 4 carried a mini-garden with air, water and soil with cotton seeds (棉花种子) in it. Four days after landing, a little cotton had already started growing. This is the first time humans have grown plants on the moon. Night has now fallen on the far side of the moon. Sunlight will not return until the start of February. As a result, the little cotton died. Besides the darkness, the plant can’t stand the cold at night. However, this experiment is a success, it has proved that it’s possible for plants to grow in space. Through the experiment, scientists will learn more about the moon. China plans to send up the probe 5 later this year, Xinhua News Agency reported. The spacecraft is expected to bring pieces of the moon back to the earth for closer study. 根据语篇内容，按要求回答问题。 1．When did Chang’e 4 probe land on the far side of the moon? 2．What is one of Chang’e 4’s tasks? 3．What was in the mini-garden? 4．What was the first plant grown on the moon? 5．Why did the little plant die at night?

(答案不唯一) Unit 2单元话题 When we talk about Chinese handmade paper, you may think of Xuan paper. However, there are different kinds of Xuan paper in different places, and Lianzhi paper from Fujian is one of them. Going back 400 years, Lianzhi paper was made by hand using bamboo. As reported by Fujian Daily, Lianzhi paper weighs only 19 g/m2, but it is strong. Thanks to this, Lianzhi paper was listed as a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage (省级非物质文化遗产) in Fujian in 2008. Deng Jinkun, a 54-year-old handmade paper lover, became the 11th generation inheritor (传承人) of Lianzhi paper in 2005. Deng said making Lianzhi paper has 72 steps, including cutting bamboo, soaking (浸湿), making pulp (纸浆), and drying. What makes it special is its bleaching (漂白) skill. “In May each year, bamboo is cut off, and soaked in lime (石灰) twice. The bamboo is then steamed (蒸) at a high temperature. After that, it’s bleached on the mountain for four months,” Deng said. “This step makes it white,” Deng added. Besides its traditional art, Deng also brought in new ideas at the same time. “Traditionally, we needed two people to bring the pulp together. Now, our Lianzhi paper needs only one person because we use a rope to hang one side,” Deng said. When they bake the paper, the baking wall is also uncommon. According to Deng, other places use lime to make the wall. “After a trip to the University of Science and Technology of China in 2018, I decided to use tabia (三合土) to make the wall so that it could last longer,” Deng said. After it is built, the tabia baking wall can be used to make paper for 40 years. 1．How was Lianzhi paper made 400 years ago? 2．When did Deng Jinkun become the 11th generation inheritor of Lianzhi paper? 3．Which step makes Lianzhi paper white? 4．Why did Deng Jinkun use tabia to make the baking wall? 5．What do you think of Deng Jinkun? Why? 【答案】1．It was made by hand using bamboo. 2．In 2005. 3．The bleaching step. 4．Because it could last longer. 5．He is creative and devoted.

Unit 4单元话题 阅读短文，根据短文内容用完整的句子回答下列问题，答案写在答题卡指定的位置。 Joking can be a cheerful thing. However, sometimes people may see it differently. Some people may get hurt if there are too many jokes. When you show you can’t accept the jokes, the jokes might get worse. We should consider the relationships when joking. Close friends usually enjoy teasing (开玩笑). Healthy teasing can usually make people relaxed. When both sides know it’s just joking, they can understand each other better. The environment is also important for close relationships. It doesn’t matter when your sister calls your nickname (绰号) at home. However, it’s quite bad when a classmate shouts it out at school. When making a joke, we often see the funny side of it. But others may see it in a different way. Sometimes we forget the other person may not find it funny. People have different life experiences, so they understand jokes differently. For example, imagine someone not swimming at a pool party. Others might tease him or her about being unable to swim. But maybe that person is just afraid of water. Keep in mind that people may have their own reasons for not seeing the funny side. It’s a good way to build good friendships by respecting others. In daily life, we should pay attention to our words when playing jokes. 1．What may happen if there are too many jokes? 2．How do people usually feel about healthy teasing? 3．What is also important for close relationships? 4．Why do people understand jokes differently? 5．How can we build good relationships? 【答案】1．Some people may get hurt. 2．People usually feel relaxed. 3．The environment. 4．Because people have different life experiences. 5．By respecting others. 【导语】本文主要讨论了开玩笑这件事，包括过多玩笑可能带来的问题、健康玩笑给人的感受、亲密关系中开玩笑需注意的环境、人们理解笑话不同的原因以及如何通过尊重他人建立良好关系。 1．根据“Some people may get hurt if there are too many jokes.”可知，如果玩笑太多，有些人可能会受到伤害。故填Some people may get hurt. 2．根据“Healthy teasing can usually make people relaxed”可知，健康的玩笑通常能让人放松。故填People usually feel relaxed. 3．根据“The environment is also important for close relationships.”可知，环境对于亲密关系也很重要。故填The environment. 4．根据“People have different life experiences, so they understand jokes differently.”可知，人们有不同的生活经历，所以他们对笑话的理解不同。故填Because people have different life experiences. 5．根据“It’s a good way to build good friendships by respecting others.”可知，通过尊重他人是建立良好关系的好方法。故填By respecting others.

Over the course of 134 days, he visited 68 counties and cities in 24 provinces and regions across China, and read 40 books. His journey was inspired (启发) by a screen time notification (通知) from his iPhone that he was spending almost seven hours a day on his phone each day. He was shocked. Then he had an idea of leaving his phone and computer at home to face the challenges of a digital-free (无数字化的) life. Last Nov. 27, Yang set off from Taiyuan with a large backpack carrying clothing, two cameras, maps, his ID card, bank cards, cash, pens, a notebook, and three books. During the trip, Yang experienced lots of challenges. Without a phone, he couldn’t book a hotel online. He wasn’t allowed in the Hubei Provincial Museum because the museum required reservation (预约) in advance and he couldn’t reserve a ticket online. There were lots of situations like this. On the other hand, leaving his phone and computer behind, Yang got really rewarding experiences. Without travel bloggers, books and museums became his guides. In Hunan province, Yang retraced (重走) Shen Congwen’s trip in Xiangxi Sanji by boat along the Yuanjiang River about 90 years ago. After reading historical documents, Yang followed those explorers’ footsteps and visited Taklimakan Desert in southern Xinjiang. Also, because writing letters was his only way to keep in touch with family and friends, he rediscovered the pleasure of writing letters. Yang returned home on April 9. He didn’t want to turn his phone or computer on, because he got used to a quiet, peaceful life without the Internet. His old life soon returned. But now, Yang keeps a degree of distance (一定的距离) from the Internet. He’s busy making a documentary (纪录片) about his journey. “I hope to offer a different perspective (视角) on seeing the world, whether on screen or through my words,” Yang says. 1．How did he take the trip last year? 2．Where did he set off? 3．What became his guides? 4．Would you like to have such a trip without the Internet?

The movie The Martian has given us some answers. It follows an astronaut named Mark who is left on Mars for nearly two years. In order to live on Mars, Mark finds a way to grow potatoes in a special room. He wears a spacesuit when he is outside his “home”. However, Mark has to face many difficulties, such as dust storms. In fact, just like in the movie, walking on the surface of Mars without a suit is a bad idea. Your skin would be peeled away like pieces of burning paper; your blood would turn to steam (水蒸气) and you would die within half a minute. There is bad radiation (辐射) and dust storms. So people would most likely live in underground homes. If technology improves, more people and construction (建筑) materials may be sent to Mars. Only then could people build houses on the surface. And life would start to look like that on Earth. On Mars, people could grow crops, such as wheat and potatoes, in special boxes. They could help make oxygen for humans to breathe like trees do on Earth. But it won’t be an easy thing. How can people move around Mars? People have suggested cars, bikes, trains, cable cars and planes. However, there are no official plans saying exactly what humans will use. 1．What does Mark do to live on Mars? 2．How long would a person live on Mars at most without a spacesuit? 3．What is “oxygen” used for, according to the passage? 4．Will life on Mars be similar to that on Earth with the improvement of technology? 5．Which way of moving around Mars (such as cars, bikes, cable cars) do you like best? Why? 【答案】1．He grows potatoes in a special room and wears a spacesuit when he is outside his “home”. 2．Within half a minute. 3．It is used for humans to breathe. 4．Yes, it will. 5．I like cable cars best. Because Mars has dust storms, cable cars can stay away from the dust on the ground, so it’s safer. 【导语】本文讲述了在火星上生活的可能性及其面临的挑战，主要基于电影《火星救援》中的情节和科学事实。 1．根据“In order to live on Mars, Mark finds a way to grow potatoes in a special room. He wears a spacesuit when he is outside his ‘home’.”可知，为了能在火星上生存，马克想出了一个办法，在一个特殊的房间里种植土豆。当他在“家”外面时，会穿上宇航服。故填He grows potatoes in a special room and wears a spacesuit when he is outside his “home”. 2．根据“Your skin would be peeled away like pieces of burning paper; your blood would turn to steam (水蒸气) and you would die within half a minute.”可知，不穿宇航服，一个人在火星上最多能活半分钟。故填Within half a minute. 3．根据“On Mars, people could grow crops, such as wheat and potatoes, in special boxes. They could help make oxygen for humans to breathe like trees do on Earth.”可知，氧气是用来供人类呼吸的。故填It is used for humans to breathe. 4．根据“If technology improves, more people and construction (建筑) materials may be sent to Mars. Only then could people build houses on the surface. And life would start to look like that on Earth.”可知，随着技术的进步，火星上的生活会和地球上的生活相似。故填Yes, it will. 5．答案合理即可。故填I like cable cars best. Because Mars has dust storms, cable cars can stay away from the dust on the ground, so it’s safer. When you look up into the night sky, you can see the moon. But do you know that you’re only seeing one side of the moon? The other side, the unknown face of the moon has long been a secret to us. But now, we have a chance to see what’s on the far side. On January 3rd, China’s Chang’e 4 probe (探测器) landed on the far side of the moon after a 26-day journey. It is the first probe in history to land there. Chang’e 4 probe has already done a lot of things on the moon. It has sent back three photos of the landing places by camera. Through it, the surface of the moon can be clearly seen. “It’s a fine, dirty and sandy environment, ” said one of the researchers. One of its tasks is to see whether humans can grow food and other plants there. Chang’e 4 carried a mini-garden with air, water and soil with cotton seeds (棉花种子) in it. Four days after landing, a little cotton had already started growing. This is the first time humans have grown plants on the moon. Night has now fallen on the far side of the moon. Sunlight will not return until the start of February. As a result, the little cotton died. Besides the darkness, the plant can’t stand the cold at night. However, this experiment is a success, it has proved that it’s possible for plants to grow in space. Through the experiment, scientists will learn more about the moon. China plans to send up the probe 5 later this year, Xinhua News Agency reported. The spacecraft is expected to bring pieces of the moon back to the earth for closer study. 根据语篇内容，按要求回答问题。 1．When did Chang’e 4 probe land on the far side of the moon? 2．What is one of Chang’e 4’s tasks? 3．What was in the mini-garden? 4．What was the first plant grown on the moon? 5．Why did the little plant die at night?
