But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood friends. He had a better career, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. These are the findings of a 40-year study. Researchers followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who worked when they were young enjoyed happier and more successful lives than those who did not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were useful members of society,” said George Vaillant, the psychologist who made the research. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them, too.” Vaillant’s study followed these males all these years. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men’s boyhood-activity scores with their mental-health scores. Points were given for part-time jobs, housework, hard work in school, and the ability to deal with problems. The relation (关系) between what the men once did as young boys and how they turned out as adults was very sharp. Vaillant and his team found that those who did the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with other people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed (失业的). The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class (社会和经济阶层) made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working at any age is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence. They also help him understand that people must work with others towards common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live wonderfully in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.” 1．What can you learn about John? A．He liked doing part-time jobs. B．He enjoyed his career and marriage. C．He received little love from his family. D．He had few friends when he was a child. 2．According to Vaillant, why could John be better off than his childhood friends? A．Because he did part-time jobs after work. B．Because he felt proud of himself when working. C．Because his working experience in his childhood was of help. D．Because he was happier than his friends when they were young. 3．How did Vaillant and his team get the findings of the research? A．By comparing different sets of scores. B．By checking the men’s family social class. C．By recording the boys’ effort in school. D．By testing the men’s problem-solving ability. 4．The purpose of the passage is to tell us that ________. A．IQ plays an important role in people’s development B．social and economic class decides how our career goes C．only working at a young age is important to our adult life D．the ability of working with others towards goals is very important 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一项长达40年的研究，该研究表明童年时期参与家务或兼职工作等活动，有助于培养责任感、独立性和能力，从而对成年后的职业、人际关系和幸福感产生积极影响。 1．细节理解题。根据“He had a better career, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier.”可知，约翰享受他的职业和婚姻。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“ ‘Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were useful members of society’...‘And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them, too.’ ”可推知，童年的工作经历帮助约翰培养了能力和自信，这对他成年后的成功有帮助。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men’s boyhood-activity scores with their mental-health scores.”可知，研究团队是通过比较不同分数集得出研究结果的。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是最后一段“They also help him understand that people must work with others towards common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.”可知，文章旨在告诉我们与他人合作实现目标的能力非常重要。故选D。 Have you heard of (听说) dazi? Have you ever found a dazi? These days, finding a dazi is becoming popular with Chinese young people. A dazi is a person we eat with, study with, exercise with or take a trip with, but we haven’t known him or her before. The dazi culture is about finding the right person to do the right activity with. Xiaoyue, a young woman from Ningxia, has met many dazi because of her love for basketball and biking. Having a dazi not only gives her company (陪伴) but also helps her enjoy sports more. These dazi relationships are very different from close friendships. As for close friends, we need to stay in close contact. With a dazi, you don’t have to do so. Many dazi may not meet again after a trip or a game together. So, many people believe having a dazi makes their social life easier and more comfortable. Finding a dazi shows that Chinese young people want clearer boundaries (界限) in their social relationships. Dazi will not talk or ask a lot about their personal lives. And they hope these relationships can let them share their hobbies and interests, or that they can help them to improve themselves. Although finding a dazi has many good points, we should be careful and put our safety first. 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By giving numbers. D．By giving an example. 2．How might Xiaoyue describe having a dazi? A．Serious. B．Difficult. C．Enjoyable. D．Meaningless. 3．What does the underlined word “so” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Having a social life. B．Playing games together. C．Staying in close contact. D．Talking about personal life. 4．Why do Chinese young people like to find a dazi? ①To improve themselves. ②To share their hobbies and interests. ③To save time and money. ④To have boundaries in their social relationships. A．①②③ B．①②④ C．①③④ D．②③④ 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．Some stories of dazi B．How we find a dazi C．Dazi: special close friends D．Dazi: a new popular culture 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文介绍了“搭子”这一新兴的文化现象，解释了其定义、与亲密友谊的区别、受年轻人欢迎的原因以及相关注意事项。 1．细节理解题。根据“Have you heard of dazi? Have you ever found a dazi?”两个问题开头，通过提问引出主题。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段“Having a dazi not only gives her company but also helps her enjoy sports more.”可知，小月认为搭子带来陪伴且让她更享受运动，Enjoyable符合语境。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据前文“As for close friends, we need to stay in close contact.”可知，so指代 “保持密切联系”，搭子无需如此。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据第四段“want clearer boundaries in their social relationships” ，“share their hobbies and interests”， “help them to improve themselves”可知，①②④正确，文中未提及“节省时间和金钱”。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。文章围绕“搭子”文化的定义、特点及影响展开，强调其作为流行文化现象的属性，选项D“搭子：一种新兴流行文化”最能概括全文。故选D。 In our daily lives, we talk with many people. Being polite is not just a good habit; it’s a key to making communication smoother (顺利的) and more pleasant. English has special ways to show respect, especially when we ask for help or permission (许可). When we ask someone to do something, how we ask makes a big difference. Instead of a direct command (命令) like “Sweep the floor”, a polite request (请求) is better. Using “Could you please ...?” works well. For example, “Could you please help me with this heavy box?” is a good request. “Could” sounds softer than “can”, which shows more respect. Adding “please” makes it even friendlier. When we want permission, the words we choose are also important. “Can I...?” is common with friends, but “Could I...?” is more polite, especially with adults (成年人) like teachers. Asking a friend, “Can I borrow your book?” is fine. But asking a teacher, “Could I ask a question?” shows respect for their position (职位). Politeness is also two-way. When you cannot help someone, just saying “No” can sound rude (粗鲁的). It’s better to give a short reason. For example, you could say, “I’m sorry, but I have to finish my homework first.” This shows you respect their request, even if you can’t agree. Using these polite phrases is an easy way to build better relationships. Small words can make home and school a happier place for everyone. 1．Which is the politest way to ask for help according to the text? A．Tell me the way. B．Can you help me? C．Where is the library? D．Could you please help me? 2．What does “Politeness is also two-way” mean in the text? A．Both people should be polite. B．There are two ways to be polite. C．You should say polite words twice. D．You should only be polite to adults. 3．How does the writer mainly explain his points (观点)? A．By telling stories. B．By using numbers. C．By giving examples. D．By making comparisons (比较). 4．What is the best title for this text? A．Can or Could B．Giving Good Reasons C．How to Make a Request D．The Importance of Being Polite 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了礼貌在沟通中的重要性，以及如何在英语中使用礼貌用语来请求帮助或征求许可，从而使交流更顺畅、人际关系更和谐。 1．细节理解题。根据“Using ‘Could you please ...?’ works well. For example, ‘Could you please help me with this heavy box?’ is a good request.”可知，使用“Could you please...?”是请求帮助时更礼貌的方式。故选D。 2．词句猜测题。根据“When you cannot help someone, just saying ‘No’ can sound rude (粗鲁的). It’s better to give a short reason.... This shows you respect their request, even if you can’t agree.”可知，不仅你向别人提出请求时要礼貌，而且当别人向你提出请求或你们互动时，你回应别人的方式也要礼貌。这体现了礼貌是相互的，需要双方共同维护。即礼貌是双向的，意味着双方都应保持礼貌。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“When we ask someone to do something, how we ask makes a big difference. Instead of a direct command (命令) like ‘Sweep the floor’, a polite request (请求) is better. Using ‘Could you please ...?’ works well. For example, ‘Could you please help me with this heavy box?’ is a good request.”可知，文章在说明礼貌用语的使用方法时，多次通过具体例子进行解释，即作者主要通过举例来阐述观点。故选C。 4．最佳标题题。通读全文并根据“English has special ways to show respect, especially when we ask for help or permission (许可).”可知，全文围绕礼貌在沟通中的重要性展开，说明了使用礼貌用语的好处及具体方法，强调礼貌能让交流更顺畅、人际关系更和谐。因此，选项D“礼貌的重要性”是最佳标题。故选D。 二、U7单元话题热点预测 Your Life in 2060 Imagine it’s 2060. You are 40 years old, have a job, and a family. As you get ready for work, you stand in front of your mirror. “Turn red,” you say. Instantly, your shirt changes color from sky blue to deep red! This happens because tiny smart electronics inside the shirt reset to make the color switch. Looking at yourself, you can hardly believe you’re 40. You look much younger. Thanks to amazing new medicines, people your age might live to be 150 years old. You’re surely not middle-aged yet! Next, you go into the kitchen to get breakfast. You pick up your cereal (麦片) box. Suddenly, your shoes speak up: “To lose weight, you shouldn’t eat that.” How do they know? They read the special electronic code (代码) on the cereal box and checked the nutrition information. You ask your kitchen instead: “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” The kitchen looks at the food you have available. Then, a list of good breakfast choices appears on its screen for you. “Are you ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter. You remind them that long ago, in 2005, only trained astronauts went to space. Now, ordinary people can go for fun vacations! You hand each child three strawberries. “The doctor said you need these for your space travel,” you explain. Medicine has improved so much. Doctors can put special medicine right into normal foods like these berries. The kids put the strawberries into their mouths and head for the door. Now it’s your turn to go to work. Your car scans (扫描) your fingerprint and unlocks. “My office. Autopilot,” you command. The car drives itself smoothly onto the road and joins the traffic on the highway. You sit back, relax, and open your electronic newspaper. The latest news downloads onto the screen right away. Instead of reading lots of words, you watch short video clips showing the news stories as you travel. 1．How do the shoes know that you shouldn’t eat the breakfast cereal? A．By listening to the doctor’s advice. B．By putting the breakfast into a bowl. C．By testing the food supplies in the kitchen.

D．Great Changes in Electronic Products. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇科幻类记叙文，描绘了2060年未来生活的四个科技场景：智能变色衬衫、会说话的鞋子、太空旅行前的药物草莓和自动驾驶汽车。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“They read the special electronic code on the cereal box and checked the nutrition information.”可知，鞋子通过读取麦片盒上的电子代码并检查了营养信息来发出提醒。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第3段“Doctors can put special medicine right into normal foods like these berries.”可知，医生能将特殊药物直接注入草莓等普通食物中，草莓便成为了药物的载体。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据文章第4段“‘My office. Autopilot,’You command.”可知，此处是作为主人的你发出的命令，让汽车去办公室。“command”表示命令，指令”。故选B。 4．最佳标题题。本文主要描绘了2060年未来生活的四个科技场景，故选C。 ①Imagine your life in the future. You wake up in the morning and go to the bathroom. The shower starts right away, and the water is just the right temperature. After your shower, your favorite breakfast is on the table. But wait! You live by yourself. How can this happen? Smart Appliances ②In the future, technology will make our appliances really smart. Take the fridge for example. There is a special chip (芯片) in it. This chip can “read” how many kinds of food you have and when you bought it. Then, the fridge can tell you what to cook or what food you need to buy. It’s like having a little helper in your kitchen! Smart Houses ③Are you bored with the color of your walls? Don’t worry! In the future, you won’t need to paint them. The walls will know what you like and what you don’t like. They can change colors by themselves! A computer network connects the walls to everything in your house, so your house can make you feel comfortable. Smart Robots ④Scientists are making smart robots. These robots will make you feel happy to have them at home. They can show their feelings just like we do. They can do the housework, take care of kids, and look after the old people. They are really helpful! ⑤It’s so cool to think about these things. How soon will they become real? Maybe in the next 10 years, or even sooner! Some technologies are already here.

This chip can ‘read’ how many kinds of food you have and when you bought it. Then, the fridge can tell you what to cook or what food you need to buy.”可知，冰箱里的特殊芯片可以“读取”你拥有的食物种类和购买时间，然后冰箱可以告诉你做什么菜或需要买什么食物。因此，选项a、b、c都是正确的，而d选项“它可以自己清洁冰箱”在文中并未提及。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“A computer network connects the walls to everything in your house, so your house can make you feel comfortable.”以及前文提到的“They can change colors by themselves!”可知，智能房屋的墙壁通过计算机网络与房子里的所有东西相连，从而可以自己改变颜色。因此，选项D“通过将计算机网络与房子里的所有东西相连”是正确的。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据第四段“Scientists are making smart robots. These robots will make you feel happy to have them at home. They can show their feelings just like we do. They can do the housework, take care of kids, and look after the old people.”可知，这里的“They”指的是前面提到的“smart robots”，即智能机器人。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“It’s so cool to think about these things. How soon will they become real? Maybe in the next 10 years, or even sooner! Some technologies are already here.”可知，作者想通过最后一段告诉我们，有些技术已经为未来的生活所用了，未来生活即将快速到来。因此，选项C“已经有一些技术可用于未来的生活”是正确的。故选C。 5．篇章结构题。文章第一段通过描述一个未来生活的场景来引出话题；第二、三、四段分别介绍了智能家电、智能房屋和智能机器人；最后一段总结全文，指出未来生活即将快速到来，有些技术已经可用。因此，文章的结构是“总-分-总”，即①/②③④/⑤。故选B。 Some of the jobs were common (普遍的) fifty years ago.

It means that the space tour guide must be a good communicator.”可知，对于这次旅行，旅行者需要一个耐心的导游来解释他们所看到的，并保证他们的安全。这意味着太空导游必须是一个善于沟通的人。因此，“communicator”指的是能够分享想法和感受的人，即善于沟通的人。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Human-technology integration specialist...They could teach others how to use future technologies.”可知，人机融合专家可以教别人如何使用未来的技术。这与选项C的描述相符，故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Some common jobs today may also disappear in twenty years. So do you want to know about some of the future jobs?”可知，现在一些常见的工作可能在二十年后消失，因此文章接下来介绍了一些未来的工作。由此可以推断，未来会出现一些新的工作，故选B。 5．最佳标题题。根据文章内容，全文主要介绍了未来可能出现的三种职业，因此最合适的标题是“Some Future Jobs”（一些未来的工作），故选A。 三、U6单元话题热点预测 In the city of Zhengzhou, there is a hotpot (火锅) restaurant, Shengyousheng, is doing something very special.

Some people even like to take part in the cooking themselves. 46% of people said they had taken cooking lessons when traveling. The survey also found that British people like to try new foods when traveling, and nearly half of people believe that they are more adventurous with the new foods when they are away from home.

Or do you think it’s better to travel with friends? I will explain the advantages (优点) of both ways. ②One of the great things about traveling alone is that you make the rules about where you go and what you eat. You’ll be surprised at what you discover about yourself. Travelling alone really shows who you really are and helps you to discover inner strength. Besides, it also gives you time to think, learn and grow. When your eyes are wide open, you’ll get a whole new look at the world. ③It’s easy to think that travelling alone is lonely. Although that may sometimes be true, you’re hardly ever alone. When you travel in a one-person team, this can provide (提供) a chance for you to enjoy the most interesting part of travel-communicating with the local people and meeting travelers from all corners of the world. ④In fact, travelling to know more about the world is not easy. You need to do research and make choices. And things can often go wrong. One of the main advantages of travelling with friends is being able to share these things and help each other along the way. ⑤Just as your mother always says, it’s true that travelling with others can give you a feeling of safety, especially when you’re new to travel. If you get lost or have any trouble, there’s someone to hold your hand. ⑥There’s no right or wrong way to travel. Whether you travel alone or team up with friends, it depends on you. 1．How does the writer introduce (介绍) the topic of the passage in Para.1? A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples.

Appearance is what you see on the outside, like height, hair color, and clothes. Personality is what’s inside, like being kind, honest, or funny.

My name is Liu Bin, and ________ is my favourite animal. It stands out among all animals because of its many good qualities (品质). Dogs come in all shapes and sizes. Some are giant and strong, some are medium-sized, and others are small and cute. They also have all kinds of interesting looks. Some have big noses, some have long ears, and others have short tails. However, what makes dogs truly special is not their appearance, but their inner nature. Most dogs are very friendly, loyal (忠诚的), and smart. This is why they can easily become an important part of our families. Many people keep dogs as pets because they are great companions (伙伴). For me, the best thing is that I can communicate with my dog through eye contact (交流). For example, when I look at him, he seems to understand what I want. Besides being wonderful friends, dogs can also help keep our homes safe. Their loyalty makes them natural guardians. I have had my dog at home for three years. I see him as a family member.

But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood friends. He had a better career, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. These are the findings of a 40-year study. Researchers followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who worked when they were young enjoyed happier and more successful lives than those who did not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were useful members of society,” said George Vaillant, the psychologist who made the research. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them, too.” Vaillant’s study followed these males all these years. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men’s boyhood-activity scores with their mental-health scores. Points were given for part-time jobs, housework, hard work in school, and the ability to deal with problems. The relation (关系) between what the men once did as young boys and how they turned out as adults was very sharp. Vaillant and his team found that those who did the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with other people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed (失业的). The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class (社会和经济阶层) made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working at any age is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence. They also help him understand that people must work with others towards common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live wonderfully in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.” 1．What can you learn about John? A．He liked doing part-time jobs. B．He enjoyed his career and marriage. C．He received little love from his family. D．He had few friends when he was a child. 2．According to Vaillant, why could John be better off than his childhood friends? A．Because he did part-time jobs after work. B．Because he felt proud of himself when working. C．Because his working experience in his childhood was of help. D．Because he was happier than his friends when they were young. 3．How did Vaillant and his team get the findings of the research? A．By comparing different sets of scores. B．By checking the men’s family social class. C．By recording the boys’ effort in school. D．By testing the men’s problem-solving ability. 4．The purpose of the passage is to tell us that ________. A．IQ plays an important role in people’s development B．social and economic class decides how our career goes C．only working at a young age is important to our adult life D．the ability of working with others towards goals is very important Have you heard of (听说) dazi? Have you ever found a dazi? These days, finding a dazi is becoming popular with Chinese young people. A dazi is a person we eat with, study with, exercise with or take a trip with, but we haven’t known him or her before. The dazi culture is about finding the right person to do the right activity with. Xiaoyue, a young woman from Ningxia, has met many dazi because of her love for basketball and biking. Having a dazi not only gives her company (陪伴) but also helps her enjoy sports more. These dazi relationships are very different from close friendships. As for close friends, we need to stay in close contact. With a dazi, you don’t have to do so. Many dazi may not meet again after a trip or a game together. So, many people believe having a dazi makes their social life easier and more comfortable. Finding a dazi shows that Chinese young people want clearer boundaries (界限) in their social relationships. Dazi will not talk or ask a lot about their personal lives. And they hope these relationships can let them share their hobbies and interests, or that they can help them to improve themselves. Although finding a dazi has many good points, we should be careful and put our safety first. 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By giving numbers. D．By giving an example. 2．How might Xiaoyue describe having a dazi? A．Serious. B．Difficult. C．Enjoyable. D．Meaningless. 3．What does the underlined word “so” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Having a social life. B．Playing games together. C．Staying in close contact.

Being polite is not just a good habit; it’s a key to making communication smoother (顺利的) and more pleasant. English has special ways to show respect, especially when we ask for help or permission (许可). When we ask someone to do something, how we ask makes a big difference. Instead of a direct command (命令) like “Sweep the floor”, a polite request (请求) is better. Using “Could you please ...?” works well. For example, “Could you please help me with this heavy box?” is a good request. “Could” sounds softer than “can”, which shows more respect. Adding “please” makes it even friendlier. When we want permission, the words we choose are also important. “Can I...?” is common with friends, but “Could I...?” is more polite, especially with adults (成年人) like teachers. Asking a friend, “Can I borrow your book?” is fine. But asking a teacher, “Could I ask a question?” shows respect for their position (职位). Politeness is also two-way. When you cannot help someone, just saying “No” can sound rude (粗鲁的). It’s better to give a short reason. For example, you could say, “I’m sorry, but I have to finish my homework first.” This shows you respect their request, even if you can’t agree. Using these polite phrases is an easy way to build better relationships. Small words can make home and school a happier place for everyone. 1．Which is the politest way to ask for help according to the text? A．Tell me the way. B．Can you help me? C．Where is the library? D．Could you please help me? 2．What does “Politeness is also two-way” mean in the text? A．Both people should be polite. B．There are two ways to be polite. C．You should say polite words twice. D．You should only be polite to adults. 3．How does the writer mainly explain his points (观点)? A．By telling stories. B．By using numbers. C．By giving examples. D．By making comparisons (比较). 4．What is the best title for this text? A．Can or Could B．Giving Good Reasons C．How to Make a Request D．The Importance of Being Polite 二、U7单元话题热点预测 Your Life in 2060 Imagine it’s 2060. You are 40 years old, have a job, and a family. As you get ready for work, you stand in front of your mirror. “Turn red,” you say. Instantly, your shirt changes color from sky blue to deep red! This happens because tiny smart electronics inside the shirt reset to make the color switch. Looking at yourself, you can hardly believe you’re 40. You look much younger. Thanks to amazing new medicines, people your age might live to be 150 years old. You’re surely not middle-aged yet! Next, you go into the kitchen to get breakfast. You pick up your cereal (麦片) box. Suddenly, your shoes speak up: “To lose weight, you shouldn’t eat that.” How do they know? They read the special electronic code (代码) on the cereal box and checked the nutrition information. You ask your kitchen instead: “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” The kitchen looks at the food you have available. Then, a list of good breakfast choices appears on its screen for you. “Are you ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter. You remind them that long ago, in 2005, only trained astronauts went to space. Now, ordinary people can go for fun vacations! You hand each child three strawberries. “The doctor said you need these for your space travel,” you explain. Medicine has improved so much. Doctors can put special medicine right into normal foods like these berries. The kids put the strawberries into their mouths and head for the door. Now it’s your turn to go to work. Your car scans (扫描) your fingerprint and unlocks. “My office. Autopilot,” you command. The car drives itself smoothly onto the road and joins the traffic on the highway.

Next to each picture, there are easy-to-read words, so customers can understand what the hand signs mean. Each table also has cards that customers can use to write to the workers if needed.

Take the delicious soup “yan du xian” for example, it uses fresh bamboo shoots. It’s famous in southern China and now getting popular in the north too.

I will explain the advantages (优点) of both ways. ②One of the great things about traveling alone is that you make the rules about where you go and what you eat. You’ll be surprised at what you discover about yourself. Travelling alone really shows who you really are and helps you to discover inner strength. Besides, it also gives you time to think, learn and grow. When your eyes are wide open, you’ll get a whole new look at the world. ③It’s easy to think that travelling alone is lonely. Although that may sometimes be true, you’re hardly ever alone. When you travel in a one-person team, this can provide (提供) a chance for you to enjoy the most interesting part of travel-communicating with the local people and meeting travelers from all corners of the world. ④In fact, travelling to know more about the world is not easy. You need to do research and make choices. And things can often go wrong. One of the main advantages of travelling with friends is being able to share these things and help each other along the way. ⑤Just as your mother always says, it’s true that travelling with others can give you a feeling of safety, especially when you’re new to travel. If you get lost or have any trouble, there’s someone to hold your hand. ⑥There’s no right or wrong way to travel.

Xue’s family needs firewood (柴火) to cook and keep warm in winter. To get enough firewood, Xue and his father went to the mountains to look for wood on May 2nd. Because some workers just built a reservoir (水库) near his house, there was a lot of wood left there. Xue and his father carried the wood home. In the following three days, they first sawed the wood into pieces and then chopped them with an axe (斧子). Finally, they put the wood in the yard. “In fact, the most tiring part is not chopping wood but carrying wood home, because it is wet and heavy,” Xue said. In the end, Xue and his father chopped about 900 kg of firewood. Xue made videos when he and his father were working. Then he shared the short videos online and they became popular.

Appearance is what you see on the outside, like height, hair color, and clothes. Personality is what’s inside, like being kind, honest, or funny. A person may look very beautiful but have a bad personality. They might be rude or selfish (自私) which makes it hard to be friends with them. On the other hand, someone who is not very good-looking may have a great personality. They could be friendly, helpful and fun to be with, making them popular. It’s important to remember that appearance can change but personality is harder to change. We should try to get to know people before judging them. A kind heart is more valuable than a pretty face. 1．What do people often judge others by? A．Personality. B．Appearance. C．Hobbies. D．Dreams. 2．What is appearance? A．What’s inside a person.

People like things for different reasons, and the same is true of animals. My name is Liu Bin, and ________ is my favourite animal. It stands out among all animals because of its many good qualities (品质). Dogs come in all shapes and sizes. Some are giant and strong, some are medium-sized, and others are small and cute. They also have all kinds of interesting looks. Some have big noses, some have long ears, and others have short tails. However, what makes dogs truly special is not their appearance, but their inner nature. Most dogs are very friendly, loyal (忠诚的), and smart. This is why they can easily become an important part of our families. Many people keep dogs as pets because they are great companions (伙伴). For me, the best thing is that I can communicate with my dog through eye contact (交流). For example, when I look at him, he seems to understand what I want. Besides being wonderful friends, dogs can also help keep our homes safe. Their loyalty makes them natural guardians. I have had my dog at home for three years. I see him as a family member. We get on very well with each other. I walk him after meals every day, and we often play games in the park. He is always kind and loving to me. This special friendship is the main reason why I love dogs so much. 阅读以上材料，回答下列各小题。 1．Which of the following should be put in ________ in the first paragraph?
