Life during those years was a mix of feelings, like a roller coaster ride that I will never 46 . I remember clearly the day I started high school. The air was filled with excitement and the sense of a new beginning. I was both hopeful and scared, excited to explore (探索) the world but also 47 about the unknown. My friends and I would spend hours after school 48 around in the park, dreaming about our 49 and the chances that waited for us. One of the most important events during my teenage years was joining the school’s drama club. It was there 50 I found my love for acting. The stage became my shelter, a place where I could 51 from the problems of everyday life. Our performances were a great success, and the cheers from the audience was the 52 sound I had ever heard. 53 , not every memory from that time is pleasant. There were moments of disappointment and 54 . I recall the first time I experienced rejection (拒绝), when a girl I fell in love with turned me down. It was a hard blow to my youthful pride, but it taught me about resilience (快速恢复) and perseverance (不屈不挠). Studies were also a major part of my teenage experience. I struggled with maths, often feeling helpless. But my English teacher, Mrs. Thompson, saw 55 in me. She encouraged me to develop my writing, which 56 led to me winning a prize. That victory was a proud moment that built up my 57 and changed my opinion on my abilities. As I look back on those years, I realize that my teenage self was easily changed and hurt. I was trying to find my place in the world, to understand 58 I was and who I wanted to be. There were times when I felt lonely, like I didn’t belong anywhere. 59 those feelings were reduced by the love and support of my family and close friends. I see that my teenage years were a key period of growth. They were filled with challenges and mistakes, but also with moments of success and self-discovery.

Our first task was to introduce paper-cutting—a traditional art with a long history—to foreign students in our sister school. At first, I was nervous because I didn’t know if the foreign friends would be 76 in this art. I spent much time preparing: collecting paper-cut styles, making PPTs about its origin, and practicing how to 77 the skills clearly. My teacher said that 78 I showed passion and patience, they’d surely be attracted. On the activity day, we set up a booth with paper-cuts on display. Many foreign students came over. I explained the 79 of paper-cutting in Chinese culture—how it’s used in festivals. Then I demonstrated cutting a simple rabbit. To my surprise, they followed my steps 80 and asked many questions. A German girl said she’d seen paper-cuts in a museum but never made them. 81 she tried cutting, she fell in love with this art. “A piece of paper can become so beautiful!” she said. We prepared blank paper and scissors for practice. 82 their works weren’t perfect, everyone had fun. We also talked about paper-cutting’s spread worldwide. Foreign designers are 83 its elements into clothes and decorations. This made me proud of our culture. As the activity ended, many asked for similar events—they wanted to learn kite-making and calligraphy too. I realized that 84 we try our best to share culture, more people will love China. Small efforts like this build cultural connections. This experience taught me cultural differences are not barriers 85 bridges. We should spread our culture confidently. Later, I made a paper-cut album for the German girl—she wanted to share it with her family. A month later, the sister school sent a letter: they held a paper-cut exhibition! Their works—pandas, Chinese temples—were creative. Seeing photos of them, I felt strong 86 in our culture. To improve future activities, we’ll collect 87 paper-cut styles from across China. Shaanxi’s are bold, while Guangdong’s are delicate. We’ll also invite a paper-cut master with over 40 years of experience—he knows rare 88 techniques. This activity was just the start. We’ll organize more to spread Chinese culture. We believe it will 89 to more corners of the world. For me, this experience let me know everyone can be a “cultural messenger”. Looking back, I’m glad I joined the club.

I was a young boy and had been sleeping 151 a few seconds before. The light 152 that was falling when I went to sleep, however, had 153 a big and noisy storm while I was dreaming. The lightning that had hit felt like it was right outside my window. It took me some time to 154 back asleep again. The next day I walked about 50 yards from our home and saw where the 155 had hit. It had hit an Oak tree seriously. I felt bad for the tree, knowing that it was 156 destroyed. The next year, though, I 157 that the tree hadn’t died. In fact, it had fresh, new, green leaves growing on it and the 158 part of the tree was starting to grow back too. I was 159 at this growing tree and couldn’t believe that it still grew after such a hard hit. Now, I’m an adult. Recently, I was 160 something that threw fresh light on that tree. It was a scientific study that showed the forest floor is all 161 as a whole. When one tree is hurt, the other trees will 162 their own nutrients (营养) to keep it alive and growing through their root system. Looking back at my own 163 , I see that I have taken quite a few lightning hits as well. Yet, through them all, I have felt the 164 of those around me. I doubt if even the strongest tree could stand what each of us goes through in this life. Thankfully, we aren’t 165 . We are a part of a loving forest.

There he was, my 50-year-old 166 with his grey hair and there I was, a teenage girl in my jeans and T-shirt. His aged but 167 clear blue eyes were talking in the scene. I was wondering 168 I was going to get through the next two days. “Why did I agree to be with my strange grandpa on a 169 ride from our city to another?” I asked myself. No one else wanted to be the fellow traveller (同行者) since my grandfather 170 to take a plane. Unlike him, I loved to fly because I wanted to get to the destination as 171 as possible. No matter what anyone told my grandfather about the comfort and safety of flying, he refused to 172 a flight, saying, “It’s not just the trip. It’s the adventure of getting there.” With my first step onto the train, the journey was already 173 what I expected. The train was modern and it was filled with 174 travelers. We all smiled and nodded to greet each other. My grandpa and I 175 ourselves in the dining car. While watching the scenery pass, we could enjoy food and drinks. 176 listening to my music, I became a willing audience and I learned family history that I had never had the time or 177 to learn about. I felt I understood him for the first time. I was 178 for our time together on the train. In this rapidly changing world, we often 179 important moments.

She did not know how she was going to make it and she wanted to 181 . Her father was a cook. He took her to the 182 , first poured some water into three pots (锅), 183 then put them on the fire to burn. Very soon the water began boiling (煮沸). He put a carrot into the first pot, an egg into the second one, and some coffee beans into the 184 . He cooked them in the boiling water without a 185 . The daughter was also silent and didn’t know 186 her father took her here. Soon she became impatient. About 20 minutes later, he turned off the gas, took the carrot out into a bowl, the egg into another 187 and coffee into a cup. After doing these, he turned to her 188 and asked, “Honey, what did you see?” “A carrot, an egg, and coffee,” she answered. He let her 189 the carrot with her hands. His daughter said it turned soft. He then asked her to take up the egg and 190 it. It was a cooked egg. Finally, he let her drink the coffee. It smelt great and she smiled. She asked, “Dad, what does this mean?” He explained, “These three things faced the 191 thing — the boiling water, but their reactions (反应) were different. The carrot was strong and hard, but it was soft and weak 192 it went through the boiling water. The egg was fragile (易碎的), but after going into the boiling water, its inside turned 193 . The coffee beans are special. After they went into the boiling water, they 194 the water.” “ 195 are you?” he asked his daughter. “Are you a carrot, an egg, or coffee beans?” His daughter was lost in thought. 181．A．give up B．give back C．give out D．give away 182．A．living room B．bedroom C．kitchen D．balcony 183．A．so B．because C．or D．and 184．A．first B．second C．third D．fourth 185．A．smile B．word C．helper D．cry 186．A．why B．when C．how D．what 187．A．pot B．cup C．basket D．bowl 188．A．wife B．son C．daughter D．mother 189．A．smell B．touch C．taste D．throw 190．A．break B．eat C．cook D．check 191．A．new B．common C．terrible D．same 192．A．before B．after C．until D．since 193．A．empty B．soft C．hard D．bad 194．A．changed B．cooled C．dirtied D．covered 195．A．Who B．Which C．Whose D．How Passage 4 It was a cold winter afternoon before Christmas. My parents and I sat on the bench in Union Railway Station in Washington D．C, waiting for the 196 . Inside the waiting hall were many people. A boy sat nearby. His worn jacket, pale face and dirty hands all seemed to tell me that he was 197 . “He must be cold and hungry. Maybe I should help him.” I said to 198 . Just at that moment, a well-dressed young gentleman walked towards him. “Excuse me,” the man bent down, “I bought 199 meal boxes but one was enough for me. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out and put this to use?” He handed the boy the other meal box. The boy 200 him and opened the box with joy and care. 201 , he stopped in the direction to which he looked. I saw an old man in rags (衣衫褴褛)—a worn sweater, worn trousers and open shoes, 202 the hall. Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood up and helped the old man to his seat. He took off his 203 and covered it on the old man’s shoulders, 204 , “A gentleman brought me this warm meal 205 I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?” He placed the still-warm meal in the old man’s hands 206 waiting for an answer. “Sure, boy, but if only you 207 the sandwich with me, it’s too much for a man at my age.” We were all touched. Dad 208 and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a pizza. Mum and Dad went up to those rags, “Excuse me...” I rushed into a KFC and took out my pocket money.

One day, because of a quarrel with her mother, the girl 211 stormed out of the house, swearing (发誓) never to return. As night fell, the girl, without having had dinner and wearing only a 212 coat, began to feel quite cold. Walking aimlessly under the city’s lights, she felt lonely and lost. When she 213 she had no money with her, her mood became even worse. Just then, an old lady selling late-night snacks called out to her, “Child, haven’t you had dinner yet? Come here and have 214 !” Jenny stopped, touching her already empty 215 . Then she replied in a low voice, “But…but I have no money.” The old lady waved her hand and said, “Don’t worry. 216 , I’m about to close. There’s still some wonton soup left. Let’s share it.” Jenny looked at the old lady’s smile, feeling a warmth in her heart. As she tasted the hot soup, tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably. “Granny, even you are kind to me, but my mother is so 217 and indifferent,” Jenny said, her voice choked. The old lady said in 218 , “Silly child, how can I compare (比较) with your mother? I just gave you a bowl of soup 219 your mother has been feeding you for over 10 years. If you thank me for this small act, how should you treat your mother?” Moved by what the old lady said, Jenny 220 the chopsticks and quietly stood up. With mixed feelings, she decided to go back home. Surely enough, the door was still open and her mother was standing at the doorway worriedly looking around. When she saw her daughter 221 , the mother was overjoyed. “Where did you go? I’ve been waiting for you for three hours. The food is freezing cold…” Jenny’s tears fell down again. She took a deep breath, 222 saying, “Mum, I’m…I’m sorry.” Deep in thought: We can often see others’ little help and feel thankful, but we seem 223 to the lifelong love and care of our family. Why’s that? This is because the sacrifices (牺牲) made by family are so selfless and lasting that sometimes we 224 to find how important they are. Family’s love is like the air—always there, yet often taken for granted (理所当然). So, it’s time for us to make a 225 . Learn to value every effort made by our family, be thankful for all they do and remember not to take their love for granted. 211．A．nervously B．bravely C．angrily D．slowly 212．A．thin B．heavy C．soft D．cheap 213．A．proved B．realized C．imagined D．believed 214．A．something B．anything C．everything D．nothing 215．A．heart B．mouth C．head D．stomach 216．A．Anyway B．However C．Otherwise D．Moreover 217．A．lazy B．careless C．cold D．silly 218．A．agreement B．surprise C．sadness D．confidence 219．A．until B．though C．since D．while 220．A．handed out B．cleaned up C．put down D．looked for 221．A．rushing B．hiding C．leaving D．returning 222．A．softly B．quickly C．sadly D．proudly 223．A．equal B．clear C．blind D．open 224．A．fail B．expect C．refuse D．manage 225．A．plan B．change C．balance D．choice 话题4 科技应用与创新 Passage 1 You’re at your new school. It’s lunch time, but you don’t have anyone to sit with. You want to join someone at their table 226 you’re not sure if they’re friendly. What do you do? Natalie’s 227 of solving the problem was to create an ape. She knows what it feels like to be alone at a new school. She found it difficult to make new friends and had to 228 a new table at lunch every day. If she sat 229 , she felt lonely. But if she asked to join someone and was 230 , she felt embarrassed (尴尬的). She created a lunch-planning app to help students like 231 find people to have lunch with. The app called Sit With Us is 232 . If a student is having lunch in the afternoon, he or she can create an invitation. Other students can open the app and 233 that invitation. They can then use the app to decide when and where to 234 . This allows students to make 235 online instead of face-to face. This is the reason why it works so 236 : it lowers (降低) the risk of being refused, and the embarrassment that goes along with it. Natalie is 237 to see that people are replying to her app actively — especially those who suffer from bullying (遭受欺凌). Soon after her app was used by the public, she won a prize for it. She 238 appeared in many news stories. Natalie was even asked to speak at a university. In her 239 , Natalie wanted people to know that you don’t have to do something 240 to change lives. Sometimes, a small thing — like having a friend to enjoy lunch with — can make all the difference. 226．A．so B．or C．for D．but 227．A．answer B．course C．way D．question 228．A．look for B．look up C．look out D．look down 229．A．on time B．in a hurry C．by herself D．in time 230．A．called B．refused C．discussed D．believed 231．A．us B．it C．her D．them 232．A．cheap B．simple C．quiet D．noisy 233．A．miss B．make C．send D．accept 234．A．stop B．study C．meet D．exercise 235．A．plans B．trouble C．reports D．dinner 236．A．late B．well C．hard D．loudly 237．A．upset B．sorry C．happy D．angry 238．A．also B．just C．still D．seldom 239．A．book B．speech C．school D．picture 240．A．big B．new C．similar D．enjoyable Passage 2 A letter changed Levi Strauss’s life. In 1849 gold was 241 in California. Thousands of people rushed to California in hopes of finding gold and becoming 242 . The people hoping to find gold were foolish and greedy. One of those 243 headed for California was Levi Strauss. Strauss was 244 . Strauss was a clever, hard-working man. He was looking for a new start in life. Up to this time, Strauss had worked for his two brothers in New York City. The brothers sold clothes and blankets and other goods. Strauss planned to set up a similar business to his 245 in California. Over the years, Strauss’s business grew. In 1872 he got a letter from one of his customers, a tailor (裁缝) in Nevada. The tailor, Jacob Davis, had a(n) 246 for making better work pants. The pockets on work pants often tore. Jacob Davis 247 metal rivets (铆钉) to the pockets. Rivets are pieces of metal 248 to join things together. The rivets worked well, and the miners liked them. Davis didn’t have enough money to get a patent (专利) for his 249 . He also needed help making the pants. In his 250 , Davis said that if they worked together, the two of them ‘‘could make a very large amount of money’’. Strauss could see that riveted work pants were a good idea. He agreed to help Davis. The two decided to make the pants. They decided to use denim cloth because it is a 251 cloth that doesn’t tear easily and is long lasting. 252 , the riveted denims were called ‘‘dungarees’’. Dungarees is a word from the Hindi 253 of India that means “rough cloth”. 254 they were tough and durable, dungarees were worn by thousands of farmers, miners, builders, and other workers. Later, dungarees came to be called “jeans”. “Jeans” is a better 255 for the pants than “dungarees”. 241．A．discovered B．created C．invented D．hidden 242．A．wealthy B．happy C．satisfied D．energetic 243．A．whom B．who C．which D．what 244．A．creative B．foolish C．smart D．different 245．A．brother B．brothers C．brothers’ D．brother’s 246．A．job B．business C．idea D．opportunity 247．A．preferred B．added C．changed D．returned 248．A．used B．worked C．made D．sold 249．A．discovery B．invention C．creation D．business 250．A．diary B．letter C．book D．invitation 251．A．heavy B．strong C．usual D．cheap 252．A．In addition B．Instead C．At first D．However 253．A．culture B．city C．language D．clothes 254．A．If B．When C．Because D．Though 255．A．meaning B．business C．call D．name Passage 3 Think about a video from your favorite film. Now imagine watching that video with 256 different sound and background music. 257 sound choices can change the form of a film. A team of soundmakers 258 behind the film to make sure a film sounds as good as it looks. It 259 starts with the production sound mixer. This person is in charge of recording all 260 and effects (效果) on set. These recordings are the basic for the rest of the sound in the film. But the sound work is just getting started! The team also 261 sound designers and Foley artists (拟音师). Then composers and background music. Take a look at how these soundmakers do 262 jobs. Soundmakers work with the director to 263 on the overall feel of the sound in a film. This means creating sounds that don’t happen in the 264 world. Sounds  such as animals’ shouts and burning fire are 265 by several real sounds and sometimes changing the speed or voice. Foley artists work in recording studios filled with thousands 266 tools from flooring and clothes to shoes and Bubble Wrap. They use the 267   to recreate sounds like fallen leaves, doors and footsteps. On set, microphones (麦克风) don’t always pick up these everyday sounds. Film places can also have unavoidable background 268 . The composer writes the background music, or score for a film. 269 writing the score, the composer meets with the director and other members of the film-making team to decide 270 and where to use music. Each choice influences the movie watcher’s feeling. 256．A．completely B．hardly C．recently D．especially 257．A．Similar B．Different C．Difficult D．Strange 258．A．works B．lives C．finds D．stays 259．A．never B．sometimes C．usually D．ever 260．A．smiles B．talks C．looks D．jokes 261．A．includes B．influences C．introduces D．encourages 262．A．they B．them C．their D．themselves 263．A．believe B．notice C．remember D．decide 264．A．real B．great C．clear D．big 265．A．felt B．made C．took D．found 266．A．to B．in C．of D．at 267．A．messages B．paper C．products D．tools 268．A．noise B．smell C．light D．picture 269．A．Through B．So C．Before D．Until 270．A．where B．how C．why D．what Passage 4 Don’t clean your ears with cotton swabs When your ears feel itchy (发痒的), you might want to use a cotton swab, called a Q-tip, to clean them. But is it a good way? 271 what do you know about the Q-tip? The Q-tip has a long history. 272 the 1920s, a man named Leo Gerstenzang invented it by 273 . He saw his wife trying to clean their child’s 274 by using a toothpick (牙签) with cotton on the end. Leo thought he could make something 275 , so he created the Q-tip with clean cotton on a 276 stick. Since then, it has been a huge 277 ! Every year, people make 278 of Q-tips. If you lined them up, you could go to the moon and back more than three times! 279 Q-tips were made to clean inside the ears, the truth is that our ears are perfectly able to clean themselves. Extra earwax (耳垢) usually 280 naturally. We 281 also wash it away when we clean the outside of our ears. Now, bags of Q-tips often have warnings that 282 “Don’t use them inside the ears”, because they can make earwax problems worse. Doctors also say it’s not 283 to put Q-tips inside our ears, as they can actually push earwax deeper into the ears and even hurt our 284 . In short, it’s 285 to use Q-tips safely and not to put them into our ears. Understanding our bodies’ natural way of cleaning can help our ears stay healthy. 271．A．And B．So C．But D．Or 272．A．On B．In C．At D．With 273．A．hand B．mistake C．accident D．choice 274．A．eyes B．nose C．mouth D．ears 275．A．worse B．bigger C．smaller D．better 276．A．shiny B．steel C．wooden D．golden 277．A．star B．success C．failure D．joke 278．A．millions B．thousands C．hundreds D．tens 279．A．Although B．Because C．If D．Before 280．A．burns out B．comes out C．sells out D．takes out 281．A．must B．should C．can D．need 282．A．talk B．tell C．speak D．say 283．A．easy B．hard C．friendly D．safe 284．A．touch B．eyesight C．hearing D．feeling 285．A．difficult B．important C．exciting D．comfortable Passage 5 He Brings Umbrellas to People’s Hearts Recently, a man named Lei Penglin has become famous on the Internet for making creative umbrellas. 38-year-old Lei has a 286 in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province. In some videos online, Lei shows his special umbrellas 287 different designs. For example, he has made umbrellas that can reflect light in the dark, umbrellas with long plastic curtains to 288 clothes from getting wet, and even twin umbrellas designed for 289 . Lei has worked in umbrella factories since he was young. So he knows a lot about how to 290 umbrellas. He can even tell the quality and the possible price of any umbrella by just weighing it in his 291 . Lei started his own factory in 2014. At first, he could receive lots of 292 , but as the competition increased, he had to find new ways. Lei realized that creative and 293 products always stand out. “People don’t want umbrellas just to keep sunlight and rain away,” Lei said. 294 he started putting creative ideas into his umbrellas. In 2022, his umbrella with a flashlight (手电筒) became 295 . From then on, Lei began to 296 people’s comments (评论) on his product videos. He now 297 hundreds of comments every day to get new ideas for his umbrellas. Many umbrellas made based on the comments have been on sale. “ 298 all the umbrellas made so far can be sold,” Lei said. In the future, Lei hopes to make some Chinese-style umbrellas that can be paired with 299 Chinese clothing, like hanfu. “I want to try something new and also help promote (推广) our Chinese 300 ,” Lei added. 286．A．shop B．school C．factory D．hospital 287．A．in B．on C．around D．with 288．A．wear B．dry C．protect D．separate 289．A．adults B．couples C．children D．businessmen 290．A．make B．sell C．paint D．match 291．A．bags B．hands C．pockets D．arms 292．A．orders B．magazines C．newspapers D．videos 293．A．usual B．special C．personal D．musical 294．A．However B．Otherwise C．So D．Because 295．A．interesting B．valuable C．powerful D．popular 296．A．look forward to B．pay attention to C．connect with D．deal with 297．A．looks B．watches C．sees D．reads 298．A．Almost B．Especially C．Hardly D．Suddenly 299．A．modern B．traditional C．colourful D．fashionable 300．A．umbrellas B．technology C．culture D．flashlight 话题5 环保与可持续发展 Passage 1 Countries around the world have reached a new climate agreement. For the first time, the 301 clearly calls on countries to move away from using fossil fuels (石化燃料) to create energy. 302 many people say the agreement doesn’t go far enough to protect the planet (行星) from global warming. The agreement was 303 at COP28 the United Nations climate meeting in Dubai. United Ara Emirates. Representatives (代表) 304 nearly 200 countries took part in the meeting. The 305 was to reach agreements that will help slow global warming. One of the big questions about COP28 was whether countries would agree to stop producing fossil fuels (called a “phase-out”), or would simply agree to produce less (called a “phase-down”) Over 100 countries, 306 the United States and the European Union, were pushing for a phase-out. But countries like Saudi Arabia and India 307 this idea. These countries either depend heavily on fossil fuels, or on the money they 308 by selling them. Because of this disagreement, the final deal doesn’t mention a phase-out or a phase-down. 309 , it calls for “transitioning (转型) away from fossil fuels”. That’s a huge 310 to many people who had hoped for a stronger position. But it’s also the first time a COP meeting has 311 moving away from fossil fuels. The agreement calls for a huge 312 in clean energy. Around 130 countries have 313 to produce three times as much renewable energy by 2030. Representatives from small island countries are especially 314 that the COP28 agreement did not call for a phase-out of fossil fuels. These countries say the agreement 315 to solve the climate crisis quickly enough. They believe this puts their nations at risk (危险) from rising sea levels. 301．A．agreement B．plan C．idea D．custom 302．A．If B．But C．And D．Although 303．A．reached B．carried C．cut D．listed 304．A．for B．with C．from D．at 305．A．goal B．result C．dream D．course 306．A．including B．except C．for D．with 307．A．depended on B．fought against C．hoped for D．looked up 308．A．buy B．make C．find D．discover 309．A．Instead B．Suddenly C．Luckily D．Happily 310．A．kindness B．disappointment C．development D．chance 311．A．enjoyed B．minded C．mentioned D．escaped 312．A．increase B．encouragement C．fall D．price 313．A．promised B．refused C．asked D．answered 314．A．excited B．surprised C．interested D．angry 315．A．succeeds B．fails C．suggests D．allows Passage 2 Each one of us shares this planet with more than seven billion others, and we all need 316 . People and products need to move from city to city and from country to country. However, we all know 317 most cars, motorcycles, boats and planes cause air pollution. They are also 318 . This is a serious problem in many cities. 319 inventors are coming up with creative ideas to try to reduce the pollution and noise. In many cities around the world, motorcycles are very 320 . Now Vietnam has around 33 million motorcycles and China has almost 100 million. Motorcycles are a cheaper way to get around a city than 321 . Yet air pollution is a growing problem. In large cities, people 322 it is difficult to breathe. To solve these problems, a US company designed an environmentally friendly motorcycle. It uses electricity as fuel (燃料). As a result, there is 323 pollution. It’s also quiet and fast. This makes 324 a good choice for getting around a city. The Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few 325 . There are no cars in the city centre. 326 cars, water taxis and buses carry people along the city’s canals (运河). However, they cause pollution, 327 to the water. British engineers Dick and Jem designed a solar-powered (太阳能的) water taxi. The water taxi 328 run for a day after being recharged (充电). Planes also cause air and noise pollution. Designing an environmentally friendly airplane is a real 329 . Some airplane companies have 330 to solve the problems. Swiss engineers have gone one step further. They developed a solar airplane. This plane holds the world record for the longest solar-powered flight-1, 541 kilometres from Arizona to Texas in America. 316．A．air B．food C．transport D．communication 317．A．How B．why C．when D．that 318．A．noisy B．dirty C．fast D．expensive 319．A．Since B．So C．Because D．Although 320．A．popular B．valuable C．dangerous D．safe 321．A．bikes B．subways C．buses D．cars 322．A．explain B．complain C．doubt D．promise 323．A．much B．some C．no D．more 324．A．them B．you C．us D．it 325．A．rivers B．roads C．tourists D．people 326．A．Instead of B．Thanks to C．Because of D．As for 327．A．probably B．only C．especially D．hardly 328．A．must B．can C．should D．need 329．A．question B．job C．decision D．challenge 330．A．disagreed B．refused C．started D．remembered Passage 3 Charlotte Liebling calls herself a “world watcher. ” That means she watches the 331 around her. Here’s an example: Liebling volunteered in a 332 . It sold secondhand goods (二手商品). Some of these were soft toys. When the toys were sold very 333 , Liebling always felt sad because she could tell that the toys held great value for their owners. After doing some 334 , she realized this wasn’t happening only in her town. Millions of toys 335 in landfills (垃圾场) every year. “If we can change the idea that soft toys lose their 336 once the owners give them away,” she thought, “then we can show people they have so much left in them. ” That’s how the Loved Before  toy-adoption (玩具领养) service 337 . The whole 338 has three steps. First, someone donates a soft toy. People can do so through the mail, or by 339 a toy to a local point in the United Kingdom. Next, the owner writes down the name of the toy and a story about it 340 the buyers can understand its value. Finally, the toy is 341 carefully for safety reasons. The company donates at least half of the money from the sale of each toy.

So, a zero-waste theme store is about 361 people with a number of everyday, practical and pleasant zero-waste products to help them start on a one-stop, zero-waste life journey. "Zero waste" or "danshari" was first 362 by a French woman Bea Johnson. "Live a life and try not to create any rubbish; use different methods to protect the earth." she said. Yu Yuan, 27, is 363 attracted by this idea. She and her boyfriend have lived in Beijing for many years. And earlier she used to be a customer without thinking a lot 364 she saw a video about "zero waste" The 365 is about a family of four, and the rubbish they produce every year is placed in a jar. After watching the video, Yu wanted to 366 this zero-waste lifestyle with her boyfriend. Yu says that a zero-waste life 367 the 6R principle --Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle and Rot(腐烂） Over August-October when Yu followed the principle of zero waste 6R, she and her boyfriend Joe Harvey both 368 only two cans of rubbish. Now, the couple have opened a small 369 called The Bulk House in Nanluoguxiang, Beijing, to support a zero-waste life. At the store they use environmentally friendly products. For example, they use wood products to replace 370 ones and prepare cloth bags printed with zero-waste logos for customers. Most of the products sold in the store can be reused, and a small number of 371 which are not recyclable can degrade（分解）. The store 372 has secondhand books and audio-visual CD/DVDs. For used toiletries (things like soap and toothpaste that are used for cleaning yourself) there is a company which accepts them, and the couple regularly mails their waste to it. Yu says that those who were once not 373 in the zero-waste lifestyle have gradually changed because of curiosity. The zero-waste lifestyle, she adds, is for everyone. "It's 374 us at our fingertips." Yu expects some of her friends to 375 her on the road to zero waste.

Life during those years was a mix of feelings, like a roller coaster ride that I will never 46 . I remember clearly the day I started high school. The air was filled with excitement and the sense of a new beginning. I was both hopeful and scared, excited to explore (探索) the world but also 47 about the unknown. My friends and I would spend hours after school 48 around in the park, dreaming about our 49 and the chances that waited for us. One of the most important events during my teenage years was joining the school’s drama club. It was there 50 I found my love for acting. The stage became my shelter, a place where I could 51 from the problems of everyday life. Our performances were a great success, and the cheers from the audience was the 52 sound I had ever heard. 53 , not every memory from that time is pleasant. There were moments of disappointment and 54 . I recall the first time I experienced rejection (拒绝), when a girl I fell in love with turned me down. It was a hard blow to my youthful pride, but it taught me about resilience (快速恢复) and perseverance (不屈不挠). Studies were also a major part of my teenage experience. I struggled with maths, often feeling helpless. But my English teacher, Mrs. Thompson, saw 55 in me. She encouraged me to develop my writing, which 56 led to me winning a prize. That victory was a proud moment that built up my 57 and changed my opinion on my abilities. As I look back on those years, I realize that my teenage self was easily changed and hurt. I was trying to find my place in the world, to understand 58 I was and who I wanted to be. There were times when I felt lonely, like I didn’t belong anywhere. 59 those feelings were reduced by the love and support of my family and close friends. I see that my teenage years were a key period of growth. They were filled with challenges and mistakes, but also with moments of success and self-discovery. I am 60 for every experience, both good and bad, because they have shaped me into the person I am today. I value the values I acquired during that time. 46．A．try B．forget C．remember D．experience 47．A．nervous B．happy C．excited D．surprised 48．A．moving B．turning C．looking D．walking 49．A．past B．present C．future D．memories 50．A．when B．that C．how D．which 51．A．give up B．come back C．take out D．get away 52．A．sweetest B．deepest C．noisiest D．longest 53．A．Therefore B．Instead C．However D．Moreover 54．A．happiness B．illness C．sadness D．kindness 55．A．something B．everything C．nothing D．anything 56．A．especially B．finally C．hopefully D．specially 57．A．importance B．patience C．confidence D．difference 58．A．which B．who C．when D．why 59．A．So B．Or C．And D．But 60．A．sorry B．ready C．thankful D．good 【答案】 46．B 47．A 48．D 49．C 50．B 51．D 52．A 53．C 54．C 55．A 56．B 57．C 58．B 59．D 60．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，作者回忆自己青少年时期的经历并抒发感悟。 46．句意：那些年的生活是百感交集的，就像坐过山车一样，我永远不会忘记。 try试图；forget忘记；remember记得；experience经历。根据“Life during those years was a mix of feelings, like a roller coaster ride”可知，那些年的生活就像坐过山车一样让作者不会忘记。故选B。 47．句意：我既充满希望，又害怕，对探索世界感到兴奋，但也对未知感到紧张。 nervous紧张的；happy开心的；excited兴奋的；surprised惊讶的。根据“the unknown”可知，对于未知的事物，应该是感到紧张。故选A。 48．句意：放学后，我和我的朋友们会花几个小时在公园里散步，梦想着我们的未来和等待我们的机会。 moving移动；turning转动；looking看；walking散步。根据“in the park”可知，此处指在公园里散步，walk around“四处走动”。故选D。 49．句意：放学后，我和我的朋友们会花几个小时在公园里散步，梦想着我们的未来和等待我们的机会。 past过去；present现在；future将来；memories记忆。根据“dreaming about”可知，此处指梦想着未来。故选C。 50．句意：正是在那里，我发现了我对表演的热爱。 when何时；that那；how如何；which哪一个。分析句子结构可知，此处是强调句结构，其结构是“It is/was +被强调部分+that/who +其他部分”，此处强调地点there，应用that。故选B。 51．句意：舞台成了我的庇护所，一个让我远离日常生活问题的地方。 give up放弃；come back回来；take out取出；get away远离。根据“the problems of everyday life”可知，此处指远离日常生活问题。故选D。 52．句意：我们的表演非常成功，观众的欢呼声是我听过的最甜美的声音。 sweetes最甜美的；deepest最深的；noisiest最吵闹的；longest最长的。根据语境可知，观众因表演成功而欢呼的声音是最甜美的。故选A。 53．句意：然而，并不是所有的记忆都是愉快的。 Therefore因此；Instead反而；However然而；Moreover而且。根据“not every memory from that time is pleasant”和上文内容可知，此处表示转折，因此用However。故选C。 54．句意：有失望和悲伤的时刻。 happiness幸福；illness疾病；sadness悲伤；kindness善良。根据“not every memory from that time is pleasant”和“disappointment and...”可知，并不是所有的记忆都是愉快的，因此空处所填词表示的意思与“disappointment”相近，含有“不愉快”的情感，sadness符合语境。故选C。 55．句意：但是我的英语老师汤普森夫人在我身上看到了一些东西。 something某物；everything一切；nothing没有什么；anything任何事。根据“She encouraged me to develop my writing”并结合语境可知，此处指汤普森夫人看到了作者身上写作的能力，应用something。故选A。 56．句意：她鼓励我发展我的写作，这最终使我赢得了一个奖。 especially尤其；finally最终；hopefully有希望地；specially特别地。根据语境可知，经过老师的鼓励，作者最终获奖了。故选B。 57．句意：那次成功是一个值得骄傲的时刻，它建立了我的信心，改变了我对自己能力的看法。 importance重要性；patience耐心；confidence信心；difference不同。根据语境并结合常识可知，成功可以建立信心。故选C。 58．句意：我试图找到我在这个世界上的位置，了解我是谁，我想成为谁。 which哪一个；who谁；when何时；why为什么。根据“to understand ...

Our first task was to introduce paper-cutting—a traditional art with a long history—to foreign students in our sister school. At first, I was nervous because I didn’t know if the foreign friends would be 76 in this art. I spent much time preparing: collecting paper-cut styles, making PPTs about its origin, and practicing how to 77 the skills clearly. My teacher said that 78 I showed passion and patience, they’d surely be attracted. On the activity day, we set up a booth with paper-cuts on display. Many foreign students came over. I explained the 79 of paper-cutting in Chinese culture—how it’s used in festivals. Then I demonstrated cutting a simple rabbit. To my surprise, they followed my steps 80 and asked many questions. A German girl said she’d seen paper-cuts in a museum but never made them. 81 she tried cutting, she fell in love with this art. “A piece of paper can become so beautiful!” she said. We prepared blank paper and scissors for practice. 82 their works weren’t perfect, everyone had fun. We also talked about paper-cutting’s spread worldwide. Foreign designers are 83 its elements into clothes and decorations. This made me proud of our culture. As the activity ended, many asked for similar events—they wanted to learn kite-making and calligraphy too. I realized that 84 we try our best to share culture, more people will love China. Small efforts like this build cultural connections. This experience taught me cultural differences are not barriers 85 bridges. We should spread our culture confidently. Later, I made a paper-cut album for the German girl—she wanted to share it with her family. A month later, the sister school sent a letter: they held a paper-cut exhibition! Their works—pandas, Chinese temples—were creative. Seeing photos of them, I felt strong 86 in our culture. To improve future activities, we’ll collect 87 paper-cut styles from across China. Shaanxi’s are bold, while Guangdong’s are delicate. We’ll also invite a paper-cut master with over 40 years of experience—he knows rare 88 techniques. This activity was just the start. We’ll organize more to spread Chinese culture. We believe it will 89 to more corners of the world. For me, this experience let me know everyone can be a “cultural messenger”. Looking back, I’m glad I joined the club.

If you lined them up, you could go to the moon and back more than three times! 279 Q-tips were made to clean inside the ears, the truth is that our ears are perfectly able to clean themselves.

Now, bags of Q-tips often have warnings that 282 “Don’t use them inside the ears”, because they can make earwax problems worse. Doctors also say it’s not 283 to put Q-tips inside our ears, as they can actually push earwax deeper into the ears and even hurt our 284 . In short, it’s 285 to use Q-tips safely and not to put them into our ears.
