Maybe a bad dream woke you up at night, or you couldn’t sleep because you were worried about the big exam the next day. Perhaps you were too hot or too cold, or maybe your neighbour was noisy. Whatever the reason, you still have to get through the day, even if you slept poorly. Here are some tips to make your day a little easier after a bad night. Tip 1 One or two cups of coffee or tea may help to wake you up, but more than that won’t help and might make you feel more stressed. It’s also best not to have caffeine (咖啡因) after 4 pm because it might keep you awake at night. Tip 2 When you feel tired, drinking plenty of water will refresh your body and help to clear your mind. And not having enough water will make you feel more tired! Have a glass of water with your breakfast, and keep drinking throughout the day. Tip 3 If it’s a sunny day, go outside and get some sunshine. Sunshine helps to wake your body up, and it might cheer you up too. Tip 4 If you’ve had a bad night, you probably don’t have the energy for a full workout, but a little light exercise will get your blood moving, and will also produce chemicals (化学物质) in your brain to lift your mood. Try something easy, like going for a walk or doing some stretches. Tip 5 A short nap (小睡) will give you energy. But experts say you shouldn’t sleep more than 25 minutes or you may fall into a deeper sleep and wake up feeling worse! 1. How many cups of coffee or tea may help wake you up? A. One or two. B. Three or four. C. Five or six. D. Seven or eight. 2. How long should a short nap be? A. More than 40 minutes. B. About 30 minutes. C. No more than 25 minutes. D. Exactly 10 minutes. 3. What’s the purpose of the tips given? A. To help with exam preparation. B. To get through a day after poor sleep. C. To plan a weekend trip. D. To learn a new skill. (B) China is a large country. The population is over 1.4 billion. It has a special culture with a very long history. Chinese food plays an important role in Chinese families. Different food has special meanings. The main difference is that Chinese people eat their meals with chopsticks. One of the main foods in Chinese culture is rice. Tea is a favourite drink and it is popular in the market. The Chinese calendar is different from the one used in Western countries. New Year’s Day is celebrated on January 1st. The Spring Festival falls on the first day of the first lunar (阴历的) month. It has a big celebration of ringing out the old and ringing in the new. It has special food and traditions. For example, sweeping the floor before the Spring Festival sweeps away all the old year’s bad luck. The Chinese zodiac (十二生肖), known as Sheng Xiao, follows a twelve-year cycle. Each year is named for an animal. These animal signs are the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig. For example, the year that begins in 2025 is the Year of the Snake. Chinese is a complex (复杂的) language. Chinese writing developed almost 4,000 years ago and might even be older. Chinese writing has thousands of characters (文字). A character stands for a word and also a meaning. Besides Putonghua, Chinese people speak six other forms of the language, and there are many kinds of dialects. 4. What’s the population of China? A. Almost 4,000. B. More than 1.4 billion. C. About 12 million. D. Over 1.4 million. 5. The underlined word “dialects” probably means “________” in Chinese. A. 交际 B. 对话 C. 方言 D. 文化 6. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Different foods have special meanings in Chinese culture. B. Chinese is a popular language. C. Chinese culture is splendid. D. China has a large population. 7. According to the passage, which sentence is right? A. Rice is the main food in Chinese culture. B. The Chinese calendar is the same as the one used in Western countries. C. Chinese writing has hundreds of characters. D. Cat is not one of the animals in Chinese zodiac. (C) Do you have some friends you call as soon as you have exciting news to share? Or the ones who notice when you’re feeling down? Those are your close friends. Not every friend you have is a close friend, and that’s okay. Studies show that most people can have only a few close friends because of limited (有限的) time and energy. Psychologist (心理学家) Robin Dunbar points out that most people have around five close friends. Another study by Suzanne Degges White finds that having three to six close friends makes people happiest. It also finds that having more than six close friends doesn’t make people feel much happier. But friendships aren’t just about closeness. According to a study by Jan Yager, you might have 25 or more casual (感情不深的) friends, like classmates, neighbours, or other people you know from everyday life. Because no one person can meet all your needs, having different kinds of friends helps in many ways. They can take some pressure off you and provide a safety net when you lose important friends. What’s more, they can also come up with new ideas. Some may surprise you. There are no hard and fast rules on how many close or casual friends you should have, so don’t worry if you have more or less. Some people have more than ten close friends, while others are happy with just one or two. What matters most is how you feel. If you’re happy with your friendships, then you have enough. Just trust your own feelings. 8. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To tell us what close friends are. B. To show how to make close friends. C. To explain why people need close friends. D. To compare close friends and casual friends. 9. Why do most people have only a few close friends? A. They would like to have more casual friends. B. They can’t feel happier with more close friends. C. They think it’s right to have about five close friends. D. They don’t have enough time or energy to have more. 10. What are the good points of having different kinds of friends? ①You can feel less pressure. ②You can get some surprising ideas. ③You can get all kinds of support and help. ④You can make sure you won’t lose close friends. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 11. Which idea does the writer most likely agree with? A. Almost all people have more than 25 casual friends. B. People need more than 6 close friends to keep happy. C. Close friends are more important than casual friends. D. The right number of friends is different for each person. (D) How people view time can be very different across cultures. In some countries, being exactly on time is very important, while in others, arriving a little late is normal. Let’s explore how four countries handle time differently. Germany: The Clock Rules In Germany, punctuality (准时) is a sign of respect. If a meeting starts at 3:00 pm, people arrive by 2:55 pm. Being even five minutes late without calling is considered rude. Trains and buses almost always run on schedule. Germans often plan events weeks in advance (提前) and stick to strict timetables. Japan: The Silent Agreement In Japan, arriving early is the golden rule. For example, if a train is supposed to leave at 8:30 am, it will leave exactly at 8:30, not a second later. People show up 10 to 15 minutes early for appointments (约会). However, Japanese culture avoids directly blaming (责怪) others for lateness. Instead, they might say “You must be very busy” to show understanding. Spain: Flexible (灵活的) Time Spanish time culture is more relaxed. A party starting at 7:00 pm usually welcomes guests from 7:30 onward. Dinner time is much later than in other countries, often around 9:00 pm or even 10:00 pm. People focus more on enjoying the moment than rushing to the next activity. Saudi Arabia: Time and Relationships (关系) In Saudi Arabia, personal relationships often matter more than strict schedules (日程安排). If someone is late for a meeting, it's normal because they might be helping a friend or a family member. People may discuss family news before starting business talks. Schedules here are often seen as guidelines, not fixed plans. Why does it matter? Understanding these differences helps avoid misunderstandings. When working with people from other cultures, remember: Time is not just numbers on a clock—it’s a language of its own. 12. What is considered rude in Germany? A. Arriving 5 minutes early for a meeting. B. Being 5 minutes late without calling. C. Planning events weeks in advance. D. Following strict timetables. 13 How early do Japanese people usually arrive for appointments? A. 5 to 10 minutes early. B. 10 to 15 minutes early. C. Exactly on time. D. 5 minutes late. 14. In which country do trains leave exactly on time? A. France. B. Japan. C. Spain. D. Saudi Arabia. 15. In Saudi Arabia, schedules are often treated as ________. A. strict rules B. family matters C. guidelines D. unimportant 第二节 (共5 小题；每小题1分, 满分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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Ben and his sister, Marie, visited their grandparents during the school holidays.

But in fact, schools worldwide work in surprisingly different ways! Here are some interesting examples. School lunches In Sweden, buffet (自助) lunches with meat, vegetables and salad are provided at no cost to students until age 18. This has been going on for over 50 years. In Japan, school lunch is part of learning. Even young kids help serve food to classmates and clean up. This teaches them to be responsible (负责任的) and work together. Local life skills Schools teach students important safety skills based on their local environment. In Finland, where winters are very cold, children learn how to survive if they fall through ice. In Australia, students are taught first aid (急救) for snake or spider bites, which are common dangers there. At the same time, in Japan—a country with many earthquakes—kids practice hiding under desks and holding their legs to protect themselves. These lessons prepare students for real-life dangers they might face. The school week Most schools open from Monday to Friday, but some follow different schedules (日程) because of tradition. French students used to have classes on Saturdays, but this stopped in 2008 because it became an inconvenience for both kids and parents as the years passed by. Now students go to school from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, with a 90-minute lunch break. Graduation (毕业) celebration Students everywhere celebrate the end of school differently. In America and Britain, students dress up for big parties called “proms”. But in the Netherlands, the tradition is different. Students hang their schoolbags on the national flags outside their homes after finishing graduation exams. It’s their way of saying, “No more schoolwork—I’m finally done!” 41. What do students in Sweden often have for lunch according to the passage? _____________________________________________________________ 42. What can students learn from school lunch in Japan? _____________________________________________________________ 43 What local life skills do the students learn in Australia? _____________________________________________________________ 44. What is the purpose of teaching local life skills in schools? _____________________________________________________________ 45. What’s the Chinese meaning of “inconvenience”? _____________________________________________________________ 第二节 写作 (满分20分) 46. 假设你是李华，以下是你们家的部分家规，请给你的父母写一封信，谈一下你对这些家规的看法，为什么同意或不同意，不同意的你希望怎样修改。 提示信息： 1. 上学日不能玩电子游戏或看电视 2. 保持自己的卧室整洁 3. 上学日不能与同学闲逛 4. 买衣服应该听取父母的意见 5. 不能打耳洞或戴耳环 6. 不能抽烟，开车或做兼职…… 写作要求： 1. 要点齐全，可适当发挥； 2. 语句通顺，条理清楚，行文连贯； 3. 词数100左右，已经给出的部分不计入总词数。 Dear Mom and Dad, I’m writing to talk about our family rules _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I know you make these rules because you love me.

But in fact, schools worldwide work in surprisingly different ways! Here are some interesting examples. School lunches In Sweden, buffet (自助) lunches with meat, vegetables and salad are provided at no cost to students until age 18. This has been going on for over 50 years. In Japan, school lunch is part of learning. Even young kids help serve food to classmates and clean up. This teaches them to be responsible (负责任的) and work together. Local life skills Schools teach students important safety skills based on their local environment. In Finland, where winters are very cold, children learn how to survive if they fall through ice. In Australia, students are taught first aid (急救) for snake or spider bites, which are common dangers there. At the same time, in Japan—a country with many earthquakes—kids practice hiding under desks and holding their legs to protect themselves. These lessons prepare students for real-life dangers they might face. The school week Most schools open from Monday to Friday, but some follow different schedules (日程) because of tradition. French students used to have classes on Saturdays, but this stopped in 2008 because it became an inconvenience for both kids and parents as the years passed by. Now students go to school from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, with a 90-minute lunch break. Graduation (毕业) celebration Students everywhere celebrate the end of school differently. In America and Britain, students dress up for big parties called “proms”. But in the Netherlands, the tradition is different. Students hang their schoolbags on the national flags outside their homes after finishing graduation exams. It’s their way of saying, “No more schoolwork—I’m finally done!” 41. What do students in Sweden often have for lunch according to the passage? _____________________________________________________________ 42. What can students learn from school lunch in Japan? _____________________________________________________________ 43. What local life skills do the students learn in Australia? _____________________________________________________________ 44. What is the purpose of teaching local life skills in schools? _____________________________________________________________ 45. What’s the Chinese meaning of “inconvenience”? _____________________________________________________________ 【答案】41. They often have buffet lunches with meat, vegetables and salad. 42. They can learn to be responsible and work together. 43. They learn first aid for snake or spider bites. 44. To help students prepare for real-life dangers they might face. 45. 不便/麻烦。 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了世界各地学校在午餐、生活技能、上学周以及毕业庆祝等方面存在令人惊讶的不同方式，并给出了相关有趣例子。 【41题详解】 根据“In Sweden, buffet (自助) lunches with meat, vegetables and salad are provided at no cost to students until age 18.”可知，在瑞典，18岁以下学生可免费享用包含肉、蔬菜和沙拉的自助午餐。故填They often have buffet lunches with meat, vegetables and salad. 【42题详解】 根据“In Japan, school lunch is part of learning. Even young kids help serve food to classmates and clean up. This teaches them to be responsible (负责任的) and work together.”可知，在日本，学校午餐是学习的一部分，即使是年幼的孩子也帮忙给同学端食物和打扫卫生，这教会他们负责任和合作。故填They can learn to be responsible and work together. 【43题详解】 根据“In Australia, students are taught first aid (急救) for snake or spider bites, which are common dangers there.”可知，在澳大利亚，学生被教授针对蛇或蜘蛛咬伤的急救知识，因为这是那里常见的危险。故填They learn first aid for snake or spider bites. 【44题详解】 根据“These lessons prepare students for real-life dangers they might face.”可知，教授这些当地生活技能的目的是帮助学生为他们可能面临的现实生活中的危险做好准备。故填To help students prepare for real-life dangers they might face. 【45题详解】 inconvenience“不便/麻烦”，名词。故填不便/麻烦。 第二节 写作 (满分20分) 46. 假设你是李华，以下是你们家的部分家规，请给你的父母写一封信，谈一下你对这些家规的看法，为什么同意或不同意，不同意的你希望怎样修改。 提示信息： 1. 上学日不能玩电子游戏或看电视 2. 保持自己的卧室整洁 3. 上学日不能与同学闲逛 4. 买衣服应该听取父母的意见 5. 不能打耳洞或戴耳环 6. 不能抽烟，开车或做兼职…… 写作要求： 1. 要点齐全，可适当发挥； 2. 语句通顺，条理清楚，行文连贯； 3. 词数100左右，已经给出的部分不计入总词数。 Dear Mom and Dad, I’m writing to talk about our family rules. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I know you make these rules because you love me. I hope we can find a balance together. Yours, Li Hua 【答案】One possible version: Dear Mom and Dad, I’m writing to talk about our family rules. I agree with most of your rules. Keeping my bedroom tidy, not smoking, not driving or doing part-time jobs are good—they help me stay healthy and focus on studies. I also understand you don’t let me hang out with classmates on school days to make sure I have homework time. But the no video games or TV rule on school days is too strict. A 30-minute break with cartoons or simple games helps me relax after hard work. About clothes and earrings, I’m old enough to choose my style sometimes. Can we discuss instead of you deciding everything? Earrings aren’t harmful—I’ll wait till I’m older. Let’s talk later. I know you make these rules because you love me. I hope we can find a balance together. Yours, Li Hua 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材： 本文是一封书信作文； ②时态：时态为“一般现在时”； ③提示：写作要点已明确，考生需围绕家庭规则展开讨论，既要表达对部分规则的认同，也要合理提出修改建议，注意逻辑清晰、语气得体。 [写作步骤] 第一步：开头点明写信目的，引出家庭规则话题； 第二步：具体阐述对部分规则的认同 (如保持整洁、禁止吸烟等)，再提出对其他规则的不同看法 (如禁止电子游戏、限制穿着等)，并说明理由； 第三步：总结全文，表达理解父母的爱，并希望共同协商找到平衡。 [亮点词汇] ①hang out with classmates和同学出去玩 ②too strict太严格 ③30-minute break30分钟的休息 ④old enough足够大 ⑤find a balance找到平衡 [高分句型] ①Keeping my bedroom tidy, not smoking, not driving or doing part-time jobs are good—they help me stay healthy and focus on studies.(动名词及动名词短语作主语) ②A 30-minute break with cartoons or simple games helps me relax after hard work.
