Why have some Finnish schools brought books back to the classrooms? A. To spend less on electronic products. B. To avoid depending heavily on educational technology. C. To get rid of the negative effects of screens on children. 18. When did Rihimaki’s middle schools stop using most books? A. In 2018. B. In 2017. C. In 2014. 19. What did Miko Mantila and Inka Warro say about the return of books? A. They missed using electronic products. B. It improved their ability to focus. C. It made them go to sleep late. 20. Who is Minna Peltopuro? A. A teacher. B. A psychologist. C. A government official. 【答案】17. C 18. A 19. B 20. B 【解析】 【原文】W: In the autumn of 2024, students in the Finnish town of Rihimaki headed back to school with backpacks full of books. This marked a change from recent years. For the past 10 years, the Finnish government has pushed computers and other electronic products in the classroom. But Finnish parents and teachers have become increasingly concerned about the effects of screens on children. Rihimaki is a town of about 30,000 people. It sits 70 kilometers north of the capital, Helsinki. In 2018, the town’s middle schools stopped using most books. But in 2024, schools in Rihimaki went back to pens and paper. Across Finland, children’s learning results have been slowly getting worse in recent years. Therefore, the government plans new laws to ban the use of electronic products, such as phones, during school hours to cut back on screen time. Eighth-graders Miko Mantila and Inka Warro, both 14, said their concentration has improved since books returned to the classroom. “If you have to do homework late at night, it’s easier to go to sleep when you haven’t just been looking at an electronic product,” Warro said. Minna Peltopuro is a psychologist working with the town on the change. She said that too much use of electronic products comes with both physical and mental risks, such as eye problems and growing anxiety. 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题，每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项 A School Library Notice Welcome to our school library.

But of all the history he’s seen, Brown says it was the Great Depression that might have had the greatest impact on his life. “People came to help me and my parents during the Depression, and I always felt I had a debt (债务) to pay,” Brown said. The Browns have lived in Bronson for about 35 years. When Bill was in his 60s, he helped tend a vegetable garden at their home. Whenever they had a lot of produce, they would give their vegetables to nearby families in need. As they began serving more communities, they founded the Children’s Table. The small community food bank in North Central Florida has served thousands of families in around ten counties over the years. These are counties with high poverty rates, and little to no public transportation, as well as many areas that could be considered “food deserts”. In these areas, the Children’s Table is a lifeline, not only providing fresh food but helping families make ends meet. The food bank holds weekly distributions (分发) every Monday at its headquarters in Bronson. They ask for a suggested $10 donation (捐赠), and in return customers receive about $100 to $150 in groceries. The donations are what keeps the organization running because they don’t rely on outside financial support. But no one is ever turned away if they can’t pay. The organization has served more than 1.5 million meals this year alone. Each week, around 200 cars pass through to pick up food. Some begin arriving more than an hour before the distribution starts, and the line can spread half a mile down the road. 24. What inspired Bill Brown to help others? A. His parents’ behavior. B. The rise of the Internet. C. His past experiences. D. The crisis facing his neighbors. 25. Why did the Browns found the Children’s Table? A. To promote their products. B. To make money for a living. C. To earn a good reputation. D. To help more communities. 26. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. There is a great need for food. B. People are eager to donate money. C. The organization has limited service hours. D. The organization provides high-quality food. 27. What is the main idea of the text? A. A family garden’s development into a big business. B. A community’s collective effort to fight against poverty. C. A man’s lifelong commitment to paying forward kindness. D. A soldier’s remarkable military career and personal growth. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了96岁的老兵Bill Brown因大萧条时期受人帮助，一生致力于通过创办食品银行Children’s Table回馈社会、传递善意的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“People came to help me and my parents during the Depression, and I always felt I had a debt (债务) to pay (大萧条时期，人们来帮助我和我的父母，我一直觉得自己欠了一笔债，需要偿还)”可知，Bill Brown在大萧条时期受人帮助的过往经历，激励他去帮助他人。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“As they began serving more communities, they founded the Children’s Table. The small community food bank in North Central Florida has served thousands of families in around ten counties over the years. (随着他们开始为更多社区提供服务，他们创办了食品银行Children’s Table。这个位于佛罗里达州中北部的小型社区食品银行多年来为大约10个县的数千个家庭提供了服务)”可知，Brown夫妇创办Children’s Table是为了帮助更多社区。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Each week, around 200 cars pass through to pick up food. Some begin arriving more than an hour before the distribution starts, and the line can spread half a mile down the road.  (每周大约有200辆车前来领取食物，有些人在分发开始前一个多小时就到了，队伍能沿着马路延伸半英里)”可知，每周有大量车辆来领取食物，甚至提前一个多小时来排队，队伍排很长，这说明当地对食物的需求量很大。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段讲述Bill Brown因大萧条时期受助而心怀回馈的想法；第二段介绍他创办Children’s Table食品银行帮助更多社区；第三、四段说明该食品银行的运营模式和社会需求。综上，本文核心是Bill Brown一生传递善意的坚守，对应最后一段未直接出现但贯穿全文的精神，选项C“一个人毕生致力于传递善意的坚守”最能概括文章主旨。故选C。 C The development of small, portable tracking tags (标签)has changed biologists’ understanding of animal behavior, but limitations in technology have left much of underwater life unresearched, according to Robert Lennox, a biologist at Dalhousie University. Take the delta smelt, a silvery fish native to California’s Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. There were lots of them before, but pollution, non-native species and pumping too much water have made them almost extinct. To help with their recovery, scientists aim to restore the area and manage water flow, but fundamental questions about the fish’s behavior remain unanswered, such as their migration (迁徙) patterns and egg-laying locations. Existing tracking tags are too heavy for the tiny delta smelt, often harming or killing them when being put in. However, recent breakthroughs in tagging technology are offering new insights into the lives of these small swimmers. Designing underwater trackers is challenging because water weakens signals, requiring larger batteries and making tags more burdensome. Researchers aim for tags weighing no more than 2% of an animal’s weight, translating to just 0.06 grams for the delta smelt. Scientists at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have taken on this challenge and made energy-rich tiny batteries and better signal senders. Their experimental tags, roughly the size of a grain of rice, can transmit (传输) signals for nearly 40 days, enabling the tracking of fish migrations over long distances. PNNL researchers have already begun using these tags to study juvenile American shad, an at-risk species affected by dam construction. Eric Chapman, a fish biologist, and his team are eager to use PNNL’s new tags on the delta smelt, hoping to put tagged fish into the delta by 2026. However, challenges still exist, including the need for high-frequency receivers to find signals from small tags. Despite these problems, new technology promises to deepen our understanding of small species that support entire ecosystems, potentially transforming conservation efforts. 28. What is a major challenge in designing underwater tracking tags? A. The size of the animal. B. The cost of materials. C. The water weakening signals. D. The need to carry a battery. 29. What can we learn about the tracking tags of the PNNL? A. They are too large to be used on the delta smelt. B. They are designed to transmit signals for a long period. C. They have been widely applied to study various fish species. D. They require little improvement for immediate conservation use. 30. What is the author’s attitude towards the new tagging technology? A. Doubtful. B. Uncaring. C. Unclear. D. Hopeful. 31. What can be the best title for the text? A. Tiny Trackers Take to the Water. B. Tracking Devices Face Technical Difficulties. C. A New Method Helps Fish Species Migrate. D. A Long-Standing Problem Fish Biologists Meet. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍小型便携式追踪标签技术的发展，及其在研究小型水下生物（如三角洲胡瓜鱼）方面的应用、挑战与前景。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Designing underwater trackers is challenging because water weakens signals, requiring larger batteries and making tags more burdensome.(设计水下追踪器具有挑战性，因为水会减弱信号，这就需要更大的电池，从而使标签更加笨重。)”可知，设计水下追踪标签的主要挑战是水会减弱信号。故选C项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Their experimental tags, roughly the size of a grain of rice, can transmit (传输) signals for nearly 40 days, enabling the tracking of fish migrations over long distances.(他们的实验标签大约只有一粒米大小，能传输信号近40天，可实现对鱼类长距离迁徙的追踪。)”可知，太平洋西北国家实验室的追踪标签设计目的是实现长时间信号传输。故选B项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Despite these problems, new technology promises to deepen our understanding of small species that support entire ecosystems, potentially transforming conservation efforts.(尽管存在这些问题，新技术有望加深我们对支撑整个生态系统的小型物种的理解，可能会改变保护工作的现状。)”可知，作者认为新技术虽有挑战，但前景广阔，对其持乐观期待态度。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文以及根据第一段“The development of small, portable tracking tags（标签）has changed biologists’ understanding of animal behavior, but limitations in technology have left much of underwater life unresearched, according to Robert Lennox, a biologist at Dalhousie University.(达尔豪斯大学生物学家罗伯特・伦诺克斯表示，小型便携式追踪标签的发展改变了生物学家对动物行为的认知，但技术局限仍使得大部分水下生物尚未被研究)”可知，文章围绕小型水下追踪标签技术展开，主要介绍小型便携式追踪标签技术的发展，及其在研究小型水下生物（如三角洲胡瓜鱼）方面的应用、挑战与前景。A项“小型追踪器下水服役”既点明核心事物“小型追踪器”，又体现其应用场景“水下”，为最佳标题。故选A项。 D There have been claims that left-handed people, about 10% of the population, would have a slight advantage in creativity. Divergent (发散性的)thinking — the ability to explore many possible solutions to a problem in a short time and make unexpected connections — is supported more by the right half of the brain. The researchers conducted a meta-analysis — sorting through nearly 1,000 relevant scientific papers published since 1900. Most were weeded out because they did not report data in a standardized way or included only rightsies, leaving 17 studies reporting nearly 50 effect sizes. The meta-analysis showed that handedness made little difference in the three most common laboratory tests of its link to divergent thinking; if anything, rightsies had a small advantage in some tests. “If you look at the literature on the whole, the data do not support any advantage in creative thinking for lefties,” said Daniel Casanto, associate professor of psychology at Cornell University. “In fact, there is some evidence that rightsies are more creative in some laboratory tests, and strong evidence that rightsies are overrepresented in professions that require the greatest creativity.” What has maintained the belief in lefties’ special creativity? One factor, the researchers consider, is left-handed exceptionalism: the idea that it’s rare to be a lefty and rare to be a creative genius, so perhaps one explains the other. Another is the popular opinion that creative genius is linked to mental illness. It turns out lefties, who are more likely to be artists, experience higher rates of depression and schizophrenia（a mental illness）. Finally, Casanto said, the urban legend is a case study in statistical (数据的)cherry picking — frequent quoting over the years from a small number of studies with small or biased (片面的)samples. “The focus on the two creative professions where lefties are overrepresented, art and music, is a really common and tricky statistical error that humans make all the time,” Casanto said. “People generalized that there are so many left-handed artists and musicians, so lefties must be more creative. But if you survey many professions without bias, that so-called lefty advantage will perish.” 32. How was the meta-analysis carried out? A. By testing people in labs. B. By studying some previous data. C By comparing scientific papers on rightsies. D. By surveying creative professionals across many fields. 33. What did the meta-analysis find? A. Lefties have clear advantages. B. Laboratory tests are sometimes unreliable. C. Rights perform slightly better in some areas. D. There are obvious differences between lefties and rights. 34. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The link between left-handedness and artistic jobs. B. The evidence that proves right-handers are more creative. C. The statistical error in judging left-handers’ creativity from rare cases. D. The factors that keep the belief in left-handers’ special creativity alive. 35. What does the underlined word “perish” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Disappear. B. Surface. C. Function. D. Form. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨左撇子是否更具创造力的问题，通过元分析否定相关优势并分析误解成因。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The researchers conducted a meta-analysis — sorting through nearly 1,000 relevant scientific papers published since 1900. Most were weeded out because they did not report data in a standardized way or included only rightsies, leaving 17 studies reporting nearly 50 effect sizes.(研究人员进行了一项元分析 —— 梳理了自1900年以来发表的近1000篇相关科学论文。大多数论文被剔除，因为它们没有以标准化的方式报告数据，或者只包含了右撇子，最后剩下17项研究，报告了近50个效应量)”可知，元分析是通过整理和研究以往的相关科学论文数据开展的。故选B项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The meta-analysis showed that handedness made little difference in the three most common laboratory tests of its link to divergent thinking; if anything, rightsies had a small advantage in some tests.(元分析显示，利手情况在三种最常用来检验其与发散性思维关联的实验室测试中几乎没有产生影响；如果说有什么不同的话，右撇子在某些测试中略有优势)”可知，元分析发现右撇子在部分领域表现稍好。故选C项。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“What has maintained the belief in lefties’ special creativity? One factor, the researchers consider, is left-handed exceptionalism: the idea that it’s rare to be a lefty and rare to be a creative genius, so perhaps one explains the other. Another is the popular opinion that creative genius is linked to mental illness.(是什么让人们一直相信左撇子具有特殊的创造力？研究人员认为，其中一个因素是左撇子例外论：左撇子和创造天才都很罕见，所以也许一个可以解释另一个。另一个是流行的观点，即创造性天才与精神疾病有关)”可知，该段主要讲述了维持“左撇子更具特殊创造力”这一观点的相关因素。故选D项。 【35题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“People generalized that there are so many left-handed artists and musicians, so lefties must be more creative. But if you survey many professions without bias, that so-called lefty advantage will perish.(人们普遍认为，有这么多左撇子艺术家和音乐家，所以左撇子一定更有创造力。但如果你无偏见地调查多个职业，那种所谓的左撇子优势就会perish)”可知，前文提到人们因片面观察得出左撇子有创造力优势的结论，而无偏见地广泛调查后，这种优势会不复存在，故猜测perish意为“消失”，与disappear同义。故选A项。 第二节 七选五(共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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。有两项为多余选项。 Don't think it's an impossible task to pass your reading tests. Lots of people have shared their successful reading secrets here. ___36___ Read a passage twice before looking up an unknown word. If you're reading to gain new vocabulary, you should treat it as a “fill in the blanks” exercise. At first, you'll have to read every paragraph twice. ___37___ The second time you read it, focus on the words you don't know. Try and work out what each word means from the sentences before and after. If you had to guess the meaning, what would it be? ___38___ Whenever you are reading in English and learn a new word, don't let it slip away! Write it down with a short definition (定义)or a little drawing. Some students like to keep a specific notebook for this--- their own personal dictionaries! Several studies have shown that writing a piece of information down on paper helps you to remember it more easily. Read out loud. If you're going to put time in your reading skills, you may as well get some extra practice for your speaking skills too! ___39___ It's a great way to get used to speaking English too. Divide your time into skim reading and deep reading. You should spend some of your reading time “skim - reading texts”. This way, you learn how to get a general sense of what's going on without understanding every single word. ___40___ This is when you really focus on understanding everything that's going on. A. Write down new words. B. Try reading some passages out loud to yourself. C. It's normal to forget how to read words correctly. D. Reading resources should be a little hard for you to skim. E.

It’s a lively center for learning, stocked with over 10,000 books, 50 kinds of magazines, and a range of digital resources — from e-books to educational videos. Whether you’re prepping for exams, exploring new hobbies, or just relaxing with a story, there’s something here for everyone. To keep this space enjoyable for all, please follow these guidelines. Borrowing Books ①Each student can borrow up to 3 books at a time. This includes popular novels, science textbooks, and history books — perfect for both study and leisure. Borrowed books can be kept for 2 weeks, but if you need more time, you can renew them once for an extra week. ②Note that magazines (like Teen Life and Science Today) and reference books (such as Oxford dictionaries and world atlases) stay in the library. They’re often needed by many students, so keeping them on-site ensures everyone can use them when required. Upcoming Activities 1 Book Talk On October 15th, 4:00 pm-5:00 pm, join Mr. Brown (our librarian with 10 years of experience) in the lecture hall. He’ll share tips on finding books that match your interests — whether you love fantasy stories or need help picking study guides. No sign-up is needed; just bring a notebook if you’d like to take notes! 2 Reading Competition Test your reading skills on October 22nd, 3:30 pm — 5:30 pm in the activity room. Tasks include answering questions about classic novels, summarizing short stories, and even acting out favorite book scenes. Winners get gift cards to the school bookstore (up to $50) — perfect for buying new books or stationery. To join, sign up by October 20th at the front desk — don’t miss out. Rules for All Visitors Keep voices low — whisper when talking to friends. No snacks or drinks (we don’t want spills on books). If you flip through a book but don’t borrow it, place it in the “return cart” near the exit — staff will put it back in the right spot. Always bring your student ID — scan it at the entrance to get in. 21. How long can a student keep borrowed books at most? A. A week. B. Two weeks. C. Three weeks. D. A month. 22. What can students do in the Book Talk activity? A. Win gift cards for the school bookstore. B. Learn how to choose books that interest them. C. Act out favorite scenes from classic novels. D. Summarize short stories with other participants. 23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the notice? A. Magazines can be taken home for 2 weeks. B. The Book Talk will be held on October 20th. C. Students need to sign up to join the reading competition. D. Students can enter the library by scanning their faces. B Bill Brown, a 96-year-old soldier, has lived through everything from World War II to the rise of the Internet. But of all the history he’s seen, Brown says it was the Great Depression that might have had the greatest impact on his life. “People came to help me and my parents during the Depression, and I always felt I had a debt (债务) to pay,” Brown said. The Browns have lived in Bronson for about 35 years. When Bill was in his 60s, he helped tend a vegetable garden at their home. Whenever they had a lot of produce, they would give their vegetables to nearby families in need. As they began serving more communities, they founded the Children’s Table. The small community food bank in North Central Florida has served thousands of families in around ten counties over the years. These are counties with high poverty rates, and little to no public transportation, as well as many areas that could be considered “food deserts”. In these areas, the Children’s Table is a lifeline, not only providing fresh food but helping families make ends meet. The food bank holds weekly distributions (分发) every Monday at its headquarters in Bronson. They ask for a suggested $10 donation (捐赠), and in return customers receive about $100 to $150 in groceries. The donations are what keeps the organization running because they don’t rely on outside financial support. But no one is ever turned away if they can’t pay. The organization has served more than 1.5 million meals this year alone. Each week, around 200 cars pass through to pick up food. Some begin arriving more than an hour before the distribution starts, and the line can spread half a mile down the road. 24. What inspired Bill Brown to help others? A. His parents’ behavior. B. The rise of the Internet. C. His past experiences. D. The crisis facing his neighbors. 25. Why did the Browns found the Children’s Table? A. To promote their products. B. To make money for a living. C. To earn a good reputation. D. To help more communities. 26. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. There is a great need for food. B. People are eager to donate money. C. The organization has limited service hours. D. The organization provides high-quality food. 27. What is the main idea of the text? A. A family garden’s development into a big business. B. A community’s collective effort to fight against poverty. C. A man’s lifelong commitment to paying forward kindness. D. A soldier’s remarkable military career and personal growth. C The development of small, portable tracking tags (标签)has changed biologists’ understanding of animal behavior, but limitations in technology have left much of underwater life unresearched, according to Robert Lennox, a biologist at Dalhousie University. Take the delta smelt, a silvery fish native to California’s Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. There were lots of them before, but pollution, non-native species and pumping too much water have made them almost extinct. To help with their recovery, scientists aim to restore the area and manage water flow, but fundamental questions about the fish’s behavior remain unanswered, such as their migration (迁徙) patterns and egg-laying locations. Existing tracking tags are too heavy for the tiny delta smelt, often harming or killing them when being put in. However, recent breakthroughs in tagging technology are offering new insights into the lives of these small swimmers. Designing underwater trackers is challenging because water weakens signals, requiring larger batteries and making tags more burdensome. Researchers aim for tags weighing no more than 2% of an animal’s weight, translating to just 0.06 grams for the delta smelt. Scientists at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have taken on this challenge and made energy-rich tiny batteries and better signal senders. Their experimental tags, roughly the size of a grain of rice, can transmit (传输) signals for nearly 40 days, enabling the tracking of fish migrations over long distances. PNNL researchers have already begun using these tags to study juvenile American shad, an at-risk species affected by dam construction. Eric Chapman, a fish biologist, and his team are eager to use PNNL’s new tags on the delta smelt, hoping to put tagged fish into the delta by 2026. However, challenges still exist, including the need for high-frequency receivers to find signals from small tags. Despite these problems, new technology promises to deepen our understanding of small species that support entire ecosystems, potentially transforming conservation efforts. 28. What is a major challenge in designing underwater tracking tags? A. The size of the animal. B. The cost of materials. C. The water weakening signals. D. The need to carry a battery. 29. What can we learn about the tracking tags of the PNNL? A. They are too large to be used on the delta smelt. B. They are designed to transmit signals for a long period. C. They have been widely applied to study various fish species. D. They require little improvement for immediate conservation use. 30. What is the author’s attitude towards the new tagging technology? A. Doubtful. B. Uncaring. C. Unclear. D. Hopeful. 31. What can be the best title for the text? A. Tiny Trackers Take to the Water. B. Tracking Devices Face Technical Difficulties. C. A New Method Helps Fish Species Migrate. D. A Long-Standing Problem Fish Biologists Meet. D There have been claims that left-handed people, about 10% of the population, would have a slight advantage in creativity. Divergent (发散性的)thinking — the ability to explore many possible solutions to a problem in a short time and make unexpected connections — is supported more by the right half of the brain. The researchers conducted a meta-analysis — sorting through nearly 1,000 relevant scientific papers published since 1900. Most were weeded out because they did not report data in a standardized way or included only rightsies, leaving 17 studies reporting nearly 50 effect sizes. The meta-analysis showed that handedness made little difference in the three most common laboratory tests of its link to divergent thinking; if anything, rightsies had a small advantage in some tests. “If you look at the literature on the whole, the data do not support any advantage in creative thinking for lefties,” said Daniel Casanto, associate professor of psychology at Cornell University. “In fact, there is some evidence that rightsies are more creative in some laboratory tests, and strong evidence that rightsies are overrepresented in professions that require the greatest creativity.” What has maintained the belief in lefties’ special creativity? One factor, the researchers consider, is left-handed exceptionalism: the idea that it’s rare to be a lefty and rare to be a creative genius, so perhaps one explains the other. Another is the popular opinion that creative genius is linked to mental illness. It turns out lefties, who are more likely to be artists, experience higher rates of depression and schizophrenia（a mental illness）. Finally, Casanto said, the urban legend is a case study in statistical (数据的)cherry picking — frequent quoting over the years from a small number of studies with small or biased (片面的)samples. “The focus on the two creative professions where lefties are overrepresented, art and music, is a really common and tricky statistical error that humans make all the time,” Casanto said. “People generalized that there are so many left-handed artists and musicians, so lefties must be more creative. But if you survey many professions without bias, that so-called lefty advantage will perish.” 32. How was the meta-analysis carried out? A. By testing people in labs. B. By studying some previous data. C. By comparing scientific papers on rightsies. D. By surveying creative professionals across many fields. 33. What did the meta-analysis find? A. Lefties have clear advantages. B. Laboratory tests are sometimes unreliable. C. Rights perform slightly better in some areas. D. There are obvious differences between lefties and rights. 34. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A The link between left-handedness and artistic jobs. B. The evidence that proves right-handers are more creative. C. The statistical error in judging left-handers’ creativity from rare cases. D. The factors that keep the belief in left-handers’ special creativity alive. 35. What does the underlined word “perish” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Disappear. B. Surface. C. Function. D. Form. 第二节 七选五(共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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。有两项为多余选项。 Don't think it's an impossible task to pass your reading tests.

I was thinking about it too and have some ideas.” Mano answered excitedly. “What are you kids talking about?” their mum asked, entering their room. “Mum, we were wondering about how to celebrate Father’s Day.” Mano said. “Oh, I am surprised you kids remembered! Well, I am thinking of cooking some favorite dishes for your father. You both should think of ways to decorate the house beautifully.”Mum said. “That would be great!”said Mano and Ali together. Both of them got up smiling, thinking of hundreds of ways to celebrate Father’s Day. Mum went to the kitchen, and Mano and Ali started doing their homework. But soon Ali noticed Mano deep in thought so he asked what the matter was. “Ali, I was thinking that our parents do everything for us and in return they want nothing. Isn’t it bad that we never think about them and are always concerned about our needs?” Mano replied. “Sometimes we are so busy with our lives that we don’t pay proper attention to our parents. We should listen to whatever they say properly and answer them. We must also study hard to get good grades.” Ali nodded.
