So I’d love to work at a zoo.”—Lily, age 8 Then Jenny and Jim found someone with each job and asked them what the job is really like. Read on to find out what people said! A. “I work in this company that makes games for smartphones. I work in a team of four people and we program a part of the game. The salary’s great so I can buy the latest gadgets. The name of the game that I’ve been working on for the last few months is a secret, but I can tell you that there will be a pirate boat racing in it!” —Aron Smith B. “I’ve been working as an architect for 35 years—and I’ve been the boss of the company for five years too! I’ve designed a water park and a playground during my career. I’m going to retire next year and move to the seaside! I’m excited about it but I’m going to miss my colleagues. There are only five staff at my company so we’re like a family.” —Bob Brown C. “I’ve been working full-time as the manager of this shop for the last four years. Before I worked here I spent a month unemployed and looking for a job, so I was delighted to start here. At first, I was excited about eating a lot of chocolates and desserts.

So, I haven’t eaten any since then!” —Mia King D. “I work at the city zoo taking care of small mammals.

I only work part-time (usually on a Saturday morning once a month) so I don’t earn much money. That’s OK though, because I’ve been studying hard recently as it’s my last year of university. In the future, I want to quit my job as a dinosaur or a bear, and have a career as a scientist!” —Paul Moss 阅读文本B，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 B In the Jin Dynasty (266-420), there was a smart boy named Che Yin. He was interested in reading. But his family was too poor to buy lamp oil (灯油), so he couldn’t read when it got dark. This made him very sad because he didn’t want to waste time. One summer night, he saw many fireflies (萤火虫) lighting up outdoors. They looked like tiny stars. Then he had an idea: What if I put many fireflies together? Maybe they can give me enough light to read! Then he found a thin white cloth bag, caught as many fireflies as possible, and kept it up. Although it did not work as well as a lamp, it was just enough for him to see the words in his books. Every night, he studied under the light of fireflies. Because of his hard work and cleverness, Che Yin later became an excellent government official (官员). While Che Yin used fireflies to read at night in summer, another boy found a clever way in winter. Sun Kang also liked reading at night. One winter night, Sun Kang woke up and found light coming in through the crack (裂缝) of his window. He went out and saw that it was the moonlight reflected by the snow, making everything bright. Even though it was cold, Sun took his books out and read under moonlight. Like Che Yin, Sun Kang worked hard and succeeded. He learned a lot and got a good job in the government. The stories of Che Yin and Sun Kang were later put together into the Chinese idiom: “Nang Ying Ying Xue”. 16. What did Che Yin use to hold fireflies? A. A glass bottle. B. A thin white cloth bag. C. A paper box. D. A wooden bowl. 17. How did Sun Kang solve his problem? A. By asking his neighbor for help. B. By using the lamp. C. By reading under moonlight. D. By making candles himself. 18. What did Che Yin and Sun Kang have in common? A. They were both born rich. B. They loved reading and worked hard. C. Their stories happened in the same season. D. They both became famous teachers. 19. What can we infer (推断) from the two stories? A. Wisdom and hard work help people succeed. B. Fireflies are brighter than lamps. C. Winter is the best season for reading. D. Most poor parents had smart kids. 20. What’s the main idea of the text? A. Ways to read without lamp oil. B. Famous officials in the Jin Dynasty. C. How to keep the hardworking spirit in mind. D. Two hardworking boys and the idiom they formed. C 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 When you see someone and they don’t recognize you at first they may excuse themselves by saying they’re “bad with faces”. ____21____ You might think they’re just making excuses, but being bad with faces is actually a medical problem called face blindness. A new study shows that we should know more about it. ____22____ It makes it very hard to recognize people, even if you can see well, think clearly and remember things normally. Their study found that some people with face blindness can’t even recognize their own family or close friends if they meet them in surprising places. ____23____ These adults were asked to share their experiences of living with the condition. Of these people, 35% said they often fail to recognize their closest family members if they meet them in unexpected places. ____24____ The researchers said that most people don’t know much about face blindness, which may make it harder for people to understand those who have the condition. According to the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), face blindness can also affect the ability to recognize emotions on other people’s faces and guess their ages. ____25____ The NHS adds that the difficulty of recognizing faces may make it harder to make friends, or cause problems at work or school, and this could affect the mental (精神的) health of people with the condition. A. One of the most interesting things was the talking screens. B. In other words, they have a hard time remembering people’s faces. C. 29 adults with face blindness in the UK took part in an online survey. D. It may also affect the ability to follow the plots (情节) of TV shows or movies. E. Researchers from the UK and the US described face blindness as a life-long condition. F. And 55% said they couldn’t always recognize their closest friends when seeing them in new places. 第Ⅱ卷（满分60分） IV. 综合运用（本题15小题，共25分） A. （本题5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 从方框中选择恰当的短语填空，每个短语限用一次。 is called, dress up, make up, lay out, is celebrated Thailand, which has a population of sixty-seven million, is one of the 49 countries which ____26____ the continent of Asia.

I never thought that Mom had done much about them behind the scenes (在幕后), until she shared her secret with me. One day last winter, Mom and I spent a whole morning planting flower bulbs. I dropped one in each hole and covered it over with soil. My fingers were numb (麻木的) by the time we finished. However, the ground looked just as empty and flat as it had been before. Then Mom told me to wait. I didn’t just wait—I watched. I watched hopefully all through the winter... On the last day of April, I went outside to find the garden full of colorful flowers. Our hard work paid off. “My boy, tomorrow morning,” Mom said, “we will walk the neighborhood and leave a basket of flowers on each doorstep.” “What?” I almost cried. “Are we selling our flowers?” “Of course not,” she said excitedly. “In fact, nobody will even know they’re from us. We’ll leave them at our neighbors’ as a surprise. Doesn’t that sound fun?” “To me, it doesn’t sound fun at all!” I replied unwillingly. “They’re our flowers. We should keep them for ourselves!” “Flowers are like kindness,” Mom said. “Their beauty is meant to be shared.” Early the next morning, Mom woke me up. We brought the baskets and stopped near the first house. I took one basket, set it by the doorstep and rang the bell. Then we quickly ran away, ducked behind the trees and waited. Finally, the door opened. A man came out, looking surprised. He picked up the flower basket and then smiled. Mom hugged me. I got a good feeling inside. Now I knew what she meant about beauty sharing. I couldn’t wait to get to the next house! By the time we got home, I was grinning (咧着嘴笑) from ear to ear, the garden was empty, but my heart was full. 41. What did the mother and her son do when the flowers bloomed (开花)? ________________________________ 42. How did the writer’s feelings towards sharing the flowers change? Please explain one reason for the change. ________________________________ 43. What’s your understanding of the mother’s sentence “Flowers are like kindness”? And write a detail (细节) from the passage to support your idea. ________________________________ B 阅读下面短文，完成下列小题。 Everyone knows that forests help fight climate change. However, a recent scientific report shows that the world lost 300,000 square kilometers of forests in 2024. That’s an area about the size of Italy. According to the report, for the first time ever, fires were the biggest cause of forest loss. Take Brazil for example. This country has the largest area of rain forests in the world. Last year, it suffered (遭受) from a long period of dry weather. Wildfires broke out and spread. As a result, about 25,000 square kilometers of the primary rainforest disappeared in the country. This meant fires caused 66% of its forest loss. The second biggest cause of the world’s forest loss was clearing land for farming. As people need more farmland, they keep cutting down forests every year. In 2024, the area of forest cleared for farming increased by 14% worldwide. The situation was more severe in developing countries. For example, Bolivia’s forest loss doubled in 2024. Without doubt, something must be done. Experts call on governments, businesses and people to work together before it is too late. It seems that China has set a good example. Thanks to cooperation at many levels, China had the biggest increase in forest area among all countries in 2024. That year alone, newly-planted trees in China covered an area of nearly 45,000 square kilometers, according to a news report. If more countries start to take action like China, the earth will become a greener planet. 44. Why did wildfires break out and spread in Brazil in 2024? ________________________________ 45. What is the main purpose of the passage? ________________________________ 46. Complete the chart using the information in the text.

But feeling love is not enough. We should learn to love others. For example, we can help classmates with homework, share umbrellas on rainy days, or say “thank you” more often. When we show kindness, we make the world better. Let’s feel love around us and pass it on! Thank you! 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
