【中考典例】
When I was a kid, my two brothers and I would stay with Grandparents for a week during summer vacation. We always looked forward to spending every moment with them, especially Grandpa, the “hero” in our eyes.
Grandpa became blind when he was 20 years old, but it never slowed down the strong-willed (坚强的) man. He worked in a shop every day. Customers would give him money, and he would return the right change and give them exactly what they wanted. He had many friends who visited the shop just to talk to him, and at that time, I helped to hand customers their drinks and snacks. This made me feel grown-up.
He also cooked lunch and washed dishes while Grandma worked. As a boy, I would watch him move around the house from room to room as if he could see. I was so surprised about how he moved from cooking to washing the dishes, never making a mistake.
It seemed like every time I stayed with him, we would visit someone in the evening who was weak or very sick. Although he can’t see things, he never let it stop him from working and being kind to others. His love for people never ended.
During those weeks, he taught me many lessons that I still treasure today. They take me back to those days and remind me how special he was. I miss every moment I stayed with him. To this day, I still dislike hearing someone say, “I can’t do that,” because I knew a blind man who never said those words.
1.What can we learn about Grandpa?
A.He had few friends. B.He lived like a normal person.
C.He had many hobbies. D.He became blind at 25 years old.
2.Which of the following best describes Grandpa?
A.Active but shy. B.Strong-willed and caring.
C.Kind but strict. D.Warm-hearted and humorous.
3.What does the underlined phrase “those days” in the last paragraph refer to?
A.The time with Grandpa. B.The time with the friends.
C.The time with the brothers. D.The time with the neighbors.
4.What lesson does the writer learn from Grandpa?
A.Family is important. B.We should work hard.
C.Anything is possible. D.We should help the blind.
5.Where is the text probably taken from?
A.A storybook. B.A film review. C.A guidebook. D.A science magazine.

Like most parents, mine spent much time advising me to take part in activities outside school. However, they never forced me, and I never found anything I was interested in. Then one day a friend at school told me about a local dance group and asked if I wanted to go with her. So after school we went to talk to the dance teacher. She explained everything to us and we both decided to join.
My parents were really pleased to hear I’d finally chosen dancing. They think if you develop an interest in doing something yourself, it will be easier to succeed.
I’ve now been attending the dancing classes for 3 years and I really enjoy it. We are organized into age groups, and at 16 I’m now in the oldest class. There are classes of swing dance, ballet (芭蕾舞), street dance and folk dance. I practice street dance and I’m quite good at it. I also help out leading some of the younger children.
We also take part in events like local and even national dance shows, and relatives turn up to see their children perform. My parents are proud of me as they tell me all the time.
Now I’ll be too old to continue dancing with the group. However, I have already made plans to continue with them. The dance school has become very successful and is opening new classes. The director has asked if I’d like to be one of the group leaders and of course I said “yes”!

【热点话题练习】
Recently, I attended the anniversary celebration of Confucius’ birth in Quzhou, Zhejiang. This event, which holds deep cultural and philosophical value, was an eye-opening experience into the heart of Chinese tradition and the enduring heritage of Confucianism (儒学).
The city is home to the descendants (后代) of Confucius, with the 76th of his descendants taking part in the ancient procession (游行). The city plays a special role in keeping Confucius’ teachings alive, making it the perfect place for such a celebration. As I entered the beautifully protected temples, I was surprised at the worship with which this ancient person is still celebrated today.
The air was filled with a sense of respect and ceremony. Many local experts and descendants of Confucius were dressed in traditional Chinese robes, showing the sense of continuity between past and present. A lot of ritual (仪式) performances and prayers were offered, connecting modern society with the ideals Confucius came up with over two thousand years ago.
Beyond the ritual, there were many discussions by Confucian experts on how these ancient teachings are explained in the context of today’s society. I realized that Confucianism isn’t just a relic (遗物) of the past but remains a living philosophy, offering guidance on how to deal with the difficulties of modern life.
What touched me most was how the old traditions connect with modernity in China. While the country is rapidly developing in technology and global influence, it still places great value on its historical roots. The Confucius anniversary celebrations were not just about honoring the past but also about protecting a philosophy that continues to enrich the present.
My time in Quzhou reminded me that ▲ , traditions like Confucianism offer a sense of continuity and grounding. This experience was a deep reminder of the cultural depth of China, and how its people try to protect their rich cultural heritage while getting used to the fast-paced, modern world.
As I left Quzhou, I carried with me a deeper understanding of Confucius’ lasting importance, not just for China, but for anyone looking for wisdom in a changing world.
1.Why was the anniversary celebration held in Quzhou?
A.Because Confucius was born there. B.Because Confucius once lived there.
C.Because many people respect Confucius there. D.Because many of Confucius’ descendants live there.
2.Which question can help readers know the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.How did Confucius come up with his ideas? B.What did they do to celebrate the anniversary?
C.Who took part in the anniversary celebration? D.When did the anniversary celebration take place?
3.According to Paragraph 4, the writer agrees that Confucianism is ________.
A.helpful but difficult B.ancient but helpful C.ordinary and ancient D.living and interesting
4.Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ?
A.while change is certain B.unless the celebration is held
C.if we follow Confucius’ ideas D.although Confucianism is meaningful
5.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

The day begins early for Minzhe. It is only 5 o’clock in the morning, and he has already started working.
Minzhe owns a large tea plantation (种植园) in his hometown in Guilin, Guangxi. It covers an area of more than 350 square meters. The tea farmer walks through the plants slowly. He carefully presses a leaf between his thumb (拇指) and index finger (食指) and gently picks it.
A tea plant can only be picked once it is about three years old. At each picking, only young leaves can be picked. And the tea plants are usually of different heights. Therefore, tea farmers can rarely rely on machines. Anyone can see that planting tea requires great patience and lots of hard work.
Minzhe knows the quality of tea depends not only on the tea plants. The picking and processing play an important part, too. As an experienced tea farmer, he knows which leaves are to be picked and when to pick these leaves.
April is usually the busiest month for Minzhe. It is the best time for harvesting top-quality green teas. Minzhe has to pick about 90,000 pieces of young leaves to produce one pound of green tea.
Shortly after picking the leaves, Minzhe begins processing them. The leaves are dried, rolled and then shaped. A heavy smell of the cut leaves fills the air in the workshop.
For Minzhe, a full day’s work produces about 50 pounds of leaves to be made into delicious tea. It brings great pride to him. A day in the life of Minzhe involves lots of hard work. However, for good tea, it is always worth it.

A.He has his own tea plantation. B.He is experienced in planting tea.
C.He gets up at 5 o’clock every morning. D.April is usually the busiest month for him.
2.According to the article, a tea plant can be picked ________.
A.only in early April B.only when it is young
C.only after it turns three D.only when it is high enough
3.Tea farmers rarely use machines to pick tea leaves because ________.
A.tea plants are usually of different heights B.it is an old tradition to pick tea leaves by hand
C.most tea plantations are too small for machines D.tea-picking machines are usually difficult to use
4.How many tea leaves does Minzhe usually produce after a full day’s work?
A.About one pound of tea leaves. B.About 50 pounds of tea leaves.
C.About 90,000 pieces of leaves. D.About 90 pounds of tea leaves.
5.We can learn from the article that Minzhe ________.

Yang Zhenning, a world-renowned physicist, passed away due to illness in Beijing on October 18, 2025. He was 103 years old. Besides being a Nobel Prize winner in Physics, he was also an academician (院士) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a professor (教授) at Tsinghua University.
Yang was born in 1922. As a teenager, he lived in Tsinghua Garden—a place that left him deep memories. Later, he studied at Southwest Associated University. In 1945, Yang went to the US for further education and got his doctorate (博士学位) from the University of Chicago. His greatest achievement came in 1957: he won the Nobel Prize in Physics with Li Zhengdao, his partner, for putting forward the theory of parity non-conservation (宇宙不守恒理论). This made him one of the first Chinese scientists to win this top honor. What’s more, his “Yang-Mills gauge theory” (杨-米尔斯规范场论) is widely seen as a cornerstone (基石) of modern physics.
Yang always had a strong love for his motherland. In 1971, he became the first top scientist to visit New China after 1949. He worked hard to build bridges between Chinese and American scientists. He also raised money to support nearly 100 Chinese scholars to study abroad, helping them learn advanced science knowledge. In 1999, Yang started teaching at Tsinghua University and finally settled down in China. He once said, “Chinese culture is like a root in my heart.” Throughout his life, he kept working for both science and his country.

Life is full of the unexpected. This is even true for a small pet dog. A dog called Romeo has been pulled out from the rubble (瓦砾) of an earthquake, more than nine days after the earthquake. On August 24, 2016, a terrible earthquake happened in Italy. The earthquake made thousands of people lose their houses. Romeo’s owners were sleeping on the second floor of their house when the earthquake happened. They managed to get out. But Romeo, who was sleeping on the first floor, was trapped inside. They tried their best to search for Romeo, but failed. After a few hours, they had to leave the village for their own safety.
All hope of finding Romeo alive seemed to disappear until Friday evening. That night the couple returned to their home with a group of firemen. Almost as soon as they came into the village, Romeo heard their voices and began barking (吠叫).
The couple couldn’t believe their ears. The firemen began digging at once where the barking was coming from and got to the dog. It was lucky that the dog was in pretty good condition. He looked like he had just woken from a short sleep.
Appearing completely relaxed, the dog drank his first drop of water in more than 230 hours from a bottle held by one of the firemen.
As it became clear he didn’t get hurt, the fireman put him down. When Romeo’s owners saw him, they couldn’t help crying. “We thought we had lost him forever!” said one of Romeo’s owners. Then Romeo left happily with his owners who had given up hope of finding him alive.

Lila was a 14-year-old girl who loved painting. Her dream was to win the school art competition. Every day after school, she painted the ocean—her favorite: waves (浪) crashing against rocks.
One morning, Lila fell off her bike and hurt her right arm. The doctor said she couldn’t hold a paintbrush for three months. “The competition is in two months!” she cried, looking at her blank canvas (油画布).
That afternoon, Mr. Chen, an old painter who lived next door, visited. “I broke my wrist (腕) once too,” he said, showing her a sunflower painting he made with his left hand. “Art isn’t about which hand you use—it’s about wanting to create.”
Lila took his advice and tried painting with her left hand. At first, her lines were shaky (不稳的) and colors were mixed messy. But she practiced daily, even when her arm hurt. Mr. Chen helped her, and soon her paintings got better.
Two weeks before the competition, Lila painted the ocean again. This time, she added a small boat in the waves, like herself fighting through hard times. The painting wasn’t perfect, but it showed a stormy sea with a boat moving forward.
On competition day, Lila handed in her painting. A week later, she won second place! The judge wrote, “Your art shows courage and the will to keep trying.”

In a village near a desert lived a successful businessman named James. Despite having a lot, he often felt unhappy due to the endless challenges.
One day, a wise old man came to the village with 100 camels. It was said he could solve any problem. James went to see him and said, “I’m very unhappy with my life. I always have business worries, family troubles and health problems. Please help me.”
The old man smiled and said, “I’ll give you an answer tomorrow morning. But first, can you do a small thing for me?” James agreed. The old man asked him to take care of the 100 camels for the night, making sure that they all sat down and rested before he could go to sleep.
The next morning, the old man asked James how his night went. James said sadly, “I didn’t sleep at all. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get all the camels to sit together. Even if I managed to get some camels to sit on one side, a few others would stand on the other side.”
“That’s true. As we both know, some camels sat down on their own, while others required some effort, and yet many camels did not sit even if you tried hard to make them. If you had come back later, you would have seen that some of the camels, even though they didn’t sit at first, finally sat down on their own.” the old man said. James nodded.
The old man continued, “Problems are just like camels—some problems get solved by themselves, some get solved when you put in some effort, and some do not get solved even after you have tried your best. Leave such problems to time. At the right time, these problems themselves will come to an end.”

My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced, “Get up, you’re going with me to cut the grass in the garden.”
The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden. By the end of the day, I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got 6 dollars for my work that day.
One day, my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside.” Take away these leaves !” he said, “and don’t make me have to tell you to do it again.” The message was clear. Today I value the importance of doing a job well the first time. It will never fail to impress (给……留下印象) the person you are working for.
Two years later, my father told me and my brother that we were old enough to cut the grass by ourselves. Every Saturday, we set off early in the morning and wished to get some money from our father.
Looking after the garden was neither exciting nor high paying, but that didn’t matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.
A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. “If you’re only thinking about hard work and money, you probably don’t want to do any better than you are doing.” I answered. In every job, from cutting the grass to washing the dishes, I’ve learned much. If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

“The road to Shu is difficult, even more difficult than climbing to the blue sky,” as Li Bai’s poem goes. For over two thousand years, the ancient road system has been a treasure of Chinese culture. But for American scholar Hope Justman, it is even more than that. She sees it as a living record of history worthy of UNESCO World Heritage status.
She visited an exhibition in Boston when she was in college, where a painting drew her attention. Huge mountains, verdant trees, and mountain streams made that painting look deep and gorgeous, with a certain sense of mystery. Intrigued by the mystery, Justman’s journey with the Shu Road system began in 2001. Since then, she has hiked the “greatest road” in China 24 times in 24 years. “It is a timeless experience for me,” she says. She can’t forget walking on the ancient flagstones under the shade of the centuries-old cypresses (柏树).
In 2007, Justman published her book, Guide to Hiking China’s Old Road to Shu. She still remembers the biggest challenge in writing it: finding the real road. When she finally found a section of the road system with the help of the locals, she was very excited. That gave her hope that “more sections of the road to Shu might have survived.” Justman believes that readers will find her book very helpful, as most of them do not know the ancient road still exists and can be hiked for many hours. In October this year, the Chinese version of her book was published.
The Three Kingdoms period is Justman’s favorite part of the road’s history. Many of the battles between Shu and Wei took place here. Many towns along the road still have temples to honor the heroes of that time.
Justman’s love for the ancient road system never fades, and she is pleased to see that China has worked hard to protect it. Big projects have been carried out to improve its condition. For example, damaged stones have been repaired and benches have been added for hikers. But this raises an interesting question. Li Bai and Du Fu described in their poems how dangerous it could be to travel along the road. But if both great poets were alive today, would they be inspired to write any new poems? Justman says, “No.”
1.What is Shu Road like in Hope Justman’s eyes?
A.Just one place in Li Bai’s poem. B.An amazing living history record.
C.A place too hard to hike. D.A nice and modern road system.
2.What does the underlined word “Intrigued” mean in paragraph 2?
A.Fascinated. B.Shaped. C.Covered. D.Accepted.
3.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The source of inspiration. B.The influence of the book on readers.
C.The difficulties in publishing. D.The process and challenges in writing.
4.What will we probably see when walking along Shu Road system now?
① Several long lifts that are newly-built. ②Trees that are hundreds of years old.
③ Temples to honor heroes of Shu. ④Gift shops that are added for tourists.
A.①② B.①④ C.②③ D.②④
5.Why does Justman say “No” at the end of the article?
A.Because Shu Road system needs to be rebuilt.
B.Because Shu Road system has lost its historical value.
C.Because Shu Road system is not as dangerous as it used to.
D.Because the protection project destroyed the beauty of the road.
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.D 4.C 5.C

One day on the street, Mr. Wilson met a young man, who asked him, “Do you remember me?” Mr. Wilson said, “No.” Then the young man told him he was his student and now he was a teacher as well. Mr. Wilson asked the young man at what time he decided to be a teacher.

When I was a little boy, I used to be very quiet. At that time my parents were busy with their work. I had to live with my grandparents. It seemed that nobody cared much about me.
One day, a friend of mine, Martin, came in with a nice new watch. It was shiny brightly in the sun and I knew I wanted it. I took it out of Martin’s pocket.
Shortly later, Martin noticed that his watch was missing and immediately told you about it. You told the class that whoever took it, he should return it. I didn’t give it back. You closed the door and told us all to stand up and form a circle. You were going to search our pockets. However, you asked us to close our eyes because you would only look for his watch if we all had our eyes closed.
You searched my pocket and found the watch there. You kept searching everyone’s pockets and when you were done, you said, “We have the watch.” You never said who took the watch to save my dignity (尊严) forever. But it was the greatest shame of my life. You never said anything. You never shouted at me or took me aside to give me a lesson. I received your message clearly.
“Do you remember this story, Mr. Wilson?” The old man answered, “Yes. I remember the situation with the missing watch. I was looking for it in everyone’s pocket.

As French author Andre Maurois once said, “Without a family, man, alone in the world, trembles (颤抖) with the cold.” Indeed, loving families are important in life.
In my family, we all love each other, but even so, misunderstandings happen.
One day, I was doing my homework in my room when my sister entered. Busy with homework, I didn’t talk to her and just kept working. But when I took a rest, I turned my head to see my notebook had messy drawings on it.
I was full of anger and shouted at my sister. “You are really a troublemaker, and I hate you.”
Hearing the words, my sister began crying and tried to explain herself. But I didn’t want to hear it. The “silence” afterward lasted for a long time between us.
To solve the problem, my father asked, “Have you seen what the drawing is on your notebook?”
I shook my head. Then, I looked at it carefully. It said, “Happy birthday”.
At that moment, I realized how inconsiderate (考虑不周的) I was being. Though drawing on my notebook wasn’t right, my sister’s love was sincere (真诚的). Feeling guilty (内疚的), I said sorry to my sister, and she smiled back at me.

Liam Garner was just 17 years old when he started out on his adventure—a 32, 000-kilometer bike trip. In early January, he finally finished his trip, 17 months after he started.
After Liam graduated from high school, he wondered what it would be like to bike from the point farthest north in the United States all the way to the most southern point in South America. And Liam set out from Alaska on August 1st, 2021. He had a tent, a sleeping bag, a phone, and some spare parts for his bike. Other than some food and water, he didn’t have much else.
At first Liam’s parents weren’t too happy about him taking such a long bike trip by himself. But as he carried on, his parents became his strongest supporters.
Liam wasn’t too worried about the path that he took. “As long as I was going south every day, I was going in the right direction, “he said. By early December, he had reached Mexico.
Liam met challenges in Mexico. He was robbed (抢劫) there. At one point, he considered forgoing because the hot weather made biking very difficult. But things cooled down once he reached Central America, and he decided to keep going.
In all, he was robbed five times on the trip. He got very sick more than once. In Colombia, he had a bike accident that left him injured. In spite of it all, he kept going, through rain, sun, heat, cold, deserts and mountains.
Liam finally arrived in Ushuaia (乌斯怀亚), Argentina on January 10th, 2023—527 days after he started. He had traveled through 14 countries along the way.
When he gets home, he hopes to write a book about his adventures. He also hopes his experience will encourage others. He says, “The most important thing is getting the confidence in yourself. “

【中考典例】
When I was a kid, my two brothers and I would stay with Grandparents for a week during summer vacation. We always looked forward to spending every moment with them, especially Grandpa, the “hero” in our eyes.
Grandpa became blind when he was 20 years old, but it never slowed down the strong-willed (坚强的) man. He worked in a shop every day. Customers would give him money, and he would return the right change and give them exactly what they wanted. He had many friends who visited the shop just to talk to him, and at that time, I helped to hand customers their drinks and snacks. This made me feel grown-up.
He also cooked lunch and washed dishes while Grandma worked. As a boy, I would watch him move around the house from room to room as if he could see. I was so surprised about how he moved from cooking to washing the dishes, never making a mistake.
It seemed like every time I stayed with him, we would visit someone in the evening who was weak or very sick. Although he can’t see things, he never let it stop him from working and being kind to others. His love for people never ended.
During those weeks, he taught me many lessons that I still treasure today. They take me back to those days and remind me how special he was. I miss every moment I stayed with him. To this day, I still dislike hearing someone say, “I can’t do that,” because I knew a blind man who never said those words.

John knew he was going to have a great summer when he and his best friend, Danny, arrived at the camp. Everywhere he looked, there were tons of boys of his age, laughing together, playing tennis, or swimming in the pool. John and Danny quickly found their camping tent and met their teacher. After they unpacked their travelling bags, the boys decided to go for a swim. They changed into their swimsuits and walked down to the pool.
At first, John and Danny stayed in the shallow end (浅水区). They played games in the water with a few other boys. Every now and then, John watched other boys jump, dive (跳水), and even do challenging actions off the diving board, like flipping in the air, but he did not feel brave enough to try it himself.
After a while Danny said they should take turns jumping off the diving board. John looked nervously at Danny and shook his head. Danny told John that it was not as scary as it looked. John finally agreed to give it a try. Slowly, he climbed to the top of the diving board. He took a few steps to the end of the board and looked over at Danny. Danny gave him a big smile.

Like most parents, mine spent much time advising me to take part in activities outside school. However, they never forced me, and I never found anything I was interested in. Then one day a friend at school told me about a local dance group and asked if I wanted to go with her. So after school we went to talk to the dance teacher. She explained everything to us and we both decided to join.
My parents were really pleased to hear I’d finally chosen dancing. They think if you develop an interest in doing something yourself, it will be easier to succeed.
I’ve now been attending the dancing classes for 3 years and I really enjoy it. We are organized into age groups, and at 16 I’m now in the oldest class. There are classes of swing dance, ballet (芭蕾舞), street dance and folk dance. I practice street dance and I’m quite good at it. I also help out leading some of the younger children.
We also take part in events like local and even national dance shows, and relatives turn up to see their children perform. My parents are proud of me as they tell me all the time.
Now I’ll be too old to continue dancing with the group. However, I have already made plans to continue with them. The dance school has become very successful and is opening new classes. The director has asked if I’d like to be one of the group leaders and of course I said “yes”!

Recently, I attended the anniversary celebration of Confucius’ birth in Quzhou, Zhejiang. This event, which holds deep cultural and philosophical value, was an eye-opening experience into the heart of Chinese tradition and the enduring heritage of Confucianism (儒学).
The city is home to the descendants (后代) of Confucius, with the 76th of his descendants taking part in the ancient procession (游行). The city plays a special role in keeping Confucius’ teachings alive, making it the perfect place for such a celebration. As I entered the beautifully protected temples, I was surprised at the worship with which this ancient person is still celebrated today.
The air was filled with a sense of respect and ceremony. Many local experts and descendants of Confucius were dressed in traditional Chinese robes, showing the sense of continuity between past and present. A lot of ritual (仪式) performances and prayers were offered, connecting modern society with the ideals Confucius came up with over two thousand years ago.
Beyond the ritual, there were many discussions by Confucian experts on how these ancient teachings are explained in the context of today’s society. I realized that Confucianism isn’t just a relic (遗物) of the past but remains a living philosophy, offering guidance on how to deal with the difficulties of modern life.
What touched me most was how the old traditions connect with modernity in China. While the country is rapidly developing in technology and global influence, it still places great value on its historical roots. The Confucius anniversary celebrations were not just about honoring the past but also about protecting a philosophy that continues to enrich the present.
My time in Quzhou reminded me that ▲ , traditions like Confucianism offer a sense of continuity and grounding. This experience was a deep reminder of the cultural depth of China, and how its people try to protect their rich cultural heritage while getting used to the fast-paced, modern world.
As I left Quzhou, I carried with me a deeper understanding of Confucius’ lasting importance, not just for China, but for anyone looking for wisdom in a changing world.
1.Why was the anniversary celebration held in Quzhou?
A.Because Confucius was born there. B.Because Confucius once lived there.
C.Because many people respect Confucius there. D.Because many of Confucius’ descendants live there.
2.Which question can help readers know the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.How did Confucius come up with his ideas? B.What did they do to celebrate the anniversary?
C.Who took part in the anniversary celebration? D.When did the anniversary celebration take place?
3.According to Paragraph 4, the writer agrees that Confucianism is ________.
A.helpful but difficult B.ancient but helpful C.ordinary and ancient D.living and interesting
4.Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ?
A.while change is certain B.unless the celebration is held
C.if we follow Confucius’ ideas D.although Confucianism is meaningful
5.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

The day begins early for Minzhe. It is only 5 o’clock in the morning, and he has already started working.
Minzhe owns a large tea plantation (种植园) in his hometown in Guilin, Guangxi. It covers an area of more than 350 square meters. The tea farmer walks through the plants slowly. He carefully presses a leaf between his thumb (拇指) and index finger (食指) and gently picks it.
A tea plant can only be picked once it is about three years old. At each picking, only young leaves can be picked. And the tea plants are usually of different heights. Therefore, tea farmers can rarely rely on machines. Anyone can see that planting tea requires great patience and lots of hard work.
Minzhe knows the quality of tea depends not only on the tea plants. The picking and processing play an important part, too. As an experienced tea farmer, he knows which leaves are to be picked and when to pick these leaves.
April is usually the busiest month for Minzhe. It is the best time for harvesting top-quality green teas. Minzhe has to pick about 90,000 pieces of young leaves to produce one pound of green tea.
Shortly after picking the leaves, Minzhe begins processing them. The leaves are dried, rolled and then shaped. A heavy smell of the cut leaves fills the air in the workshop.
For Minzhe, a full day’s work produces about 50 pounds of leaves to be made into delicious tea. It brings great pride to him. A day in the life of Minzhe involves lots of hard work. However, for good tea, it is always worth it.
1.Which of the following statements about Minzhe is NOT true?
A.He has his own tea plantation. B.He is experienced in planting tea.
C.He gets up at 5 o’clock every morning. D.April is usually the busiest month for him.
2.According to the article, a tea plant can be picked ________.
A.only in early April B.only when it is young
C.only after it turns three D.only when it is high enough

4.How many tea leaves does Minzhe usually produce after a full day’s work?
A.About one pound of tea leaves. B.About 50 pounds of tea leaves.

Life is full of the unexpected. This is even true for a small pet dog. A dog called Romeo has been pulled out from the rubble (瓦砾) of an earthquake, more than nine days after the earthquake. On August 24, 2016, a terrible earthquake happened in Italy. The earthquake made thousands of people lose their houses. Romeo’s owners were sleeping on the second floor of their house when the earthquake happened. They managed to get out. But Romeo, who was sleeping on the first floor, was trapped inside. They tried their best to search for Romeo, but failed. After a few hours, they had to leave the village for their own safety.
All hope of finding Romeo alive seemed to disappear until Friday evening. That night the couple returned to their home with a group of firemen. Almost as soon as they came into the village, Romeo heard their voices and began barking (吠叫).
The couple couldn’t believe their ears. The firemen began digging at once where the barking was coming from and got to the dog. It was lucky that the dog was in pretty good condition. He looked like he had just woken from a short sleep.
Appearing completely relaxed, the dog drank his first drop of water in more than 230 hours from a bottle held by one of the firemen.
As it became clear he didn’t get hurt, the fireman put him down. When Romeo’s owners saw him, they couldn’t help crying. “We thought we had lost him forever!” said one of Romeo’s owners. Then Romeo left happily with his owners who had given up hope of finding him alive.

Lila was a 14-year-old girl who loved painting. Her dream was to win the school art competition. Every day after school, she painted the ocean—her favorite: waves (浪) crashing against rocks.
One morning, Lila fell off her bike and hurt her right arm. The doctor said she couldn’t hold a paintbrush for three months. “The competition is in two months!” she cried, looking at her blank canvas (油画布).
That afternoon, Mr. Chen, an old painter who lived next door, visited. “I broke my wrist (腕) once too,” he said, showing her a sunflower painting he made with his left hand. “Art isn’t about which hand you use—it’s about wanting to create.”
Lila took his advice and tried painting with her left hand. At first, her lines were shaky (不稳的) and colors were mixed messy. But she practiced daily, even when her arm hurt. Mr. Chen helped her, and soon her paintings got better.
Two weeks before the competition, Lila painted the ocean again. This time, she added a small boat in the waves, like herself fighting through hard times. The painting wasn’t perfect, but it showed a stormy sea with a boat moving forward.
On competition day, Lila handed in her painting. A week later, she won second place! The judge wrote, “Your art shows courage and the will to keep trying.”
After that, Lila started a class for kids who had trouble painting. She taught them to use their left hands or other ways. “Art is for everyone,” she said. “It’s not about how you paint, but how much you try.”

In a village near a desert lived a successful businessman named James. Despite having a lot, he often felt unhappy due to the endless challenges.
One day, a wise old man came to the village with 100 camels. It was said he could solve any problem. James went to see him and said, “I’m very unhappy with my life. I always have business worries, family troubles and health problems. Please help me.”
The old man smiled and said, “I’ll give you an answer tomorrow morning. But first, can you do a small thing for me?” James agreed. The old man asked him to take care of the 100 camels for the night, making sure that they all sat down and rested before he could go to sleep.
The next morning, the old man asked James how his night went. James said sadly, “I didn’t sleep at all. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get all the camels to sit together. Even if I managed to get some camels to sit on one side, a few others would stand on the other side.”
“That’s true. As we both know, some camels sat down on their own, while others required some effort, and yet many camels did not sit even if you tried hard to make them. If you had come back later, you would have seen that some of the camels, even though they didn’t sit at first, finally sat down on their own.” the old man said. James nodded.
The old man continued, “Problems are just like camels—some problems get solved by themselves, some get solved when you put in some effort, and some do not get solved even after you have tried your best. Leave such problems to time. At the right time, these problems themselves will come to an end.”

My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced, “Get up, you’re going with me to cut the grass in the garden.”
The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden. By the end of the day, I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got 6 dollars for my work that day.
One day, my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside.” Take away these leaves !” he said, “and don’t make me have to tell you to do it again.” The message was clear. Today I value the importance of doing a job well the first time. It will never fail to impress (给……留下印象) the person you are working for.
Two years later, my father told me and my brother that we were old enough to cut the grass by ourselves. Every Saturday, we set off early in the morning and wished to get some money from our father.
Looking after the garden was neither exciting nor high paying, but that didn’t matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.
A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. “If you’re only thinking about hard work and money, you probably don’t want to do any better than you are doing.” I answered. In every job, from cutting the grass to washing the dishes, I’ve learned much. If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

A.Because his brother was too young to take them away. B.Because his father didn’t like him at all.
C.Because his father wanted to give him a lesson. D.Because his father can’t do that alone.
3.What happened when the writer was sixteen?
A.His brother had to go to the garden with his father every day.
B.He went to the garden early once a week with his brother.
C.He could get more money from his father than his brother.
D.He still couldn’t change anything about himself.

“The road to Shu is difficult, even more difficult than climbing to the blue sky,” as Li Bai’s poem goes. For over two thousand years, the ancient road system has been a treasure of Chinese culture. But for American scholar Hope Justman, it is even more than that. She sees it as a living record of history worthy of UNESCO World Heritage status.
She visited an exhibition in Boston when she was in college, where a painting drew her attention. Huge mountains, verdant trees, and mountain streams made that painting look deep and gorgeous, with a certain sense of mystery. Intrigued by the mystery, Justman’s journey with the Shu Road system began in 2001. Since then, she has hiked the “greatest road” in China 24 times in 24 years. “It is a timeless experience for me,” she says. She can’t forget walking on the ancient flagstones under the shade of the centuries-old cypresses (柏树).
In 2007, Justman published her book, Guide to Hiking China’s Old Road to Shu. She still remembers the biggest challenge in writing it: finding the real road. When she finally found a section of the road system with the help of the locals, she was very excited. That gave her hope that “more sections of the road to Shu might have survived.” Justman believes that readers will find her book very helpful, as most of them do not know the ancient road still exists and can be hiked for many hours. In October this year, the Chinese version of her book was published.
The Three Kingdoms period is Justman’s favorite part of the road’s history. Many of the battles between Shu and Wei took place here. Many towns along the road still have temples to honor the heroes of that time.
Justman’s love for the ancient road system never fades, and she is pleased to see that China has worked hard to protect it. Big projects have been carried out to improve its condition. For example, damaged stones have been repaired and benches have been added for hikers. But this raises an interesting question. Li Bai and Du Fu described in their poems how dangerous it could be to travel along the road. But if both great poets were alive today, would they be inspired to write any new poems? Justman says, “No.”
1.What is Shu Road like in Hope Justman’s eyes?
A.Just one place in Li Bai’s poem. B.An amazing living history record.

One day on the street, Mr. Wilson met a young man, who asked him, “Do you remember me?” Mr. Wilson said, “No.” Then the young man told him he was his student and now he was a teacher as well. Mr. Wilson asked the young man at what time he decided to be a teacher.
The young man then told him the following story:
When I was a little boy, I used to be very quiet. At that time my parents were busy with their work. I had to live with my grandparents. It seemed that nobody cared much about me.
One day, a friend of mine, Martin, came in with a nice new watch. It was shiny brightly in the sun and I knew I wanted it. I took it out of Martin’s pocket.
Shortly later, Martin noticed that his watch was missing and immediately told you about it. You told the class that whoever took it, he should return it. I didn’t give it back. You closed the door and told us all to stand up and form a circle. You were going to search our pockets. However, you asked us to close our eyes because you would only look for his watch if we all had our eyes closed.
You searched my pocket and found the watch there. You kept searching everyone’s pockets and when you were done, you said, “We have the watch.” You never said who took the watch to save my dignity (尊严) forever. But it was the greatest shame of my life. You never said anything. You never shouted at me or took me aside to give me a lesson. I received your message clearly.
“Do you remember this story, Mr. Wilson?” The old man answered, “Yes. I remember the situation with the missing watch. I was looking for it in everyone’s pocket.

One day, I was doing my homework in my room when my sister entered. Busy with homework, I didn’t talk to her and just kept working. But when I took a rest, I turned my head to see my notebook had messy drawings on it.
