Happy Rain on a Spring Night
Good rain knows its time ▲ ;
It will fall when comes spring.
With wind it steals in night;
Mute, it moistens each thing.
O’er wild lanes dark cloud spreads;
In boat a lantern looms.
Dawn sees saturated reds;
The town’s heavy with blooms.
—Translated by Xu Yuanchong
This famous poem, was written by Du Fu (712—770, Tang Dynasty) when he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes, he went to the farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers.
The very first word, “Good”, shows Du’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good because it “knows” the right time to come. Here Du uses personification, as if the rain was smart enough to come in time for the farmers’ busy season.
The rain comes during the night without making any noise. Unlike the summer storms, the quiet spring rain finishes its task without being known.
Next, Du describes a peaceful scene to us. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy.
It’s a sign that there will be enough rain during the night. The light from the riverboat makes the dark scene a bit livelier.
Finally, he thinks, the city of Chengdu will become beautiful when all the flowers bloom after the rain.

The brothers walked up the hill, where kids were taking turns on saucers, shrieking all the way down. Simon couldn’t tell if their cries meant they were happy or afraid. He knew which one he felt. Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” He called to Simon.

When your parents tell you to wear hearing protectors (护耳器) in noisy places, your first idea may be “What will my friends say?”. What they might say, however, is not as important as what you might lose later on. If you keep your ears in too much noise for too long, you could lose some hearing. The solution is simple. Earplugs and earmuffs (耳塞和耳罩) help protect your hearing from noises. Get comfortable with hearing protectors. Here are some pieces of advice.
Learn about the different kinds of hearing protectors. There are many kinds of earplugs and earmuffs. Choose one that fits you. Practice wearing your hearing protectors around the house to get used to them. At first, you may find that they make your ears feel full. However, just as with new shoes, you’ll get used to them.
Take an extra (额外的) pair of earplugs or earmuffs when you go to a concert or other noisy events. Share them with your friends. Did any of them have ringing in their ears after the last noisy event? This is very common. Let your friends know that hearing protectors can also prevent ringing in the ears.
Find out what your favorite musicians are doing to protect their hearing. They may be rich, but they know their hearing is priceless. So is the hearing of their fans. Some music stars encourage their fans to listen to music at safe levels and to wear hearing protectors at concerts.
Practice what to say if your friends ask why you wear hearing protectors. Be funny: “My dream job is a singer. Hearing loss will kill my dream.” Be smart: “I wear a bicycle helmet (头盔 ) to protect my head and earmuffs to protect my hearing.”
31.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Your friends. B.The noisy events.
C.The favorite musicians. D.The extra pairs of earplugs or earmuffs.
32.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.You shouldn’t take your friends to a noisy place.
B.You should share earplugs or earmuffs with your friends.
C.Your ears often feel terrible after you go to a noisy event.
D.You and your friends should realize the bad results of noisy concerts.
33.Which question does Paragraph 4 answer?
A.How do singers communicate with their fans?
B.Which hearing protectors do singers often choose?
C.Why do singers look cool with hearing protectors?
D.What can we learn from singers about protecting our hearing?
34.What’s the correct structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
35.Which of the following can be the best title?

New Year’s Day is a special time when we can make new plans for ourselves. 36 They are like little promises (承诺) we make to be better people in the new year.
First, we need to think about what we want to change or do better. Maybe we want to study harder, or maybe we want to make more friends. 37 For example, if we want to study better, our goal (目标) could be to finish our homework every day without playing games first.
38 A plan helps us know what to do and when to do it. If our goal is to make more friends, we can plan to join a club or talk to one new person every day at school.
Now, we have to do what our plan says. It’s not always easy, but we can do it if we try our best. 39 They can ask us to do our homework or make us talk to new people.
Finally, at the end of the year, we can look back and see if we did what we said we would. 40 If not, it’s okay. We can learn from it and make new resolutions (决心) for the next year.
New Year’s Resolutions are a fun way to make ourselves better. Let’s all try to keep our resolutions and have a great year!
A.If we did great, that’s wonderful!
B.Next, we need to make a plan to reach our goals.
C.Another resolution could be to get more exercise.

五、读写综合
(一)阅读并回答问题。(共5小题,每小题2分,计10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过6个词。
Can a cricket really tell you the temperature outside? Do fish know if it’s going to be a cold winter? You may hear that groundhogs can predict (预测) the end of the winter. Some of the sayings, like, “if a cat sits with its back to the fire, hard weather can be expected.” may sound unbelievable, but some may be true. Many animals do have stronger senses than humans.
Do animals tell us when a storm is coming? Birds react to the drop in air pressure (气压) before a storm by flying low. Insects stay close to the ground and wolves howl because their ears can sense the pressure change. A good rule is, when animals act strangely, you probably should be careful with the environment (环境) around us.
Do you know the sound of crickets’ chirping (鸣叫) can tell you how hot the day is? Crickets are cold-blooded, so when the temperature in the air changes, the cricket’s body temperature changes with it. As the temperature rises, the cricket’s metabolism (新陈代谢) increases. When the heat rises, crickets chirp. To get the exact temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (℉), count the number of chirps in 14 seconds, and add 40.
Do you have a tried and true weather animal that predicts the weather?
回答下列5个问题,每题答案不超过6个词。
61.Why can some animals know the weather changes?

Happy Rain on a Spring Night
Good rain knows its time ▲ ;

With wind it steals in night;
Mute, it moistens each thing.
O’er wild lanes dark cloud spreads;
In boat a lantern looms.
Dawn sees saturated reds;
The town’s heavy with blooms.
—Translated by Xu Yuanchong
This famous poem, was written by Du Fu (712—770, Tang Dynasty) when he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes, he went to the farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers.
The very first word, “Good”, shows Du’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good because it “knows” the right time to come. Here Du uses personification, as if the rain was smart enough to come in time for the farmers’ busy season.
The rain comes during the night without making any noise. Unlike the summer storms, the quiet spring rain finishes its task without being known.
Next, Du describes a peaceful scene to us. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy.
It’s a sign that there will be enough rain during the night. The light from the riverboat makes the dark scene a bit livelier.
Finally, he thinks, the city of Chengdu will become beautiful when all the flowers bloom after the rain.

“Go with your brother, Simon,” said Mom.” He will show you how to do it.”
The brothers walked up the hill, where kids were taking turns on saucers, shrieking all the way down. Simon couldn’t tell if their cries meant they were happy or afraid. He knew which one he felt. Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” He called to Simon.

Simon knew Gabe wanted to fly down the hill without him.
“Are you going or not?” a girl behind him said.
Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.”
“Good for you, Simon,” Gabe said.
Simon sat on the saucer, with his heart beating fast. Gabe gave him a push on the back Suddenly, he was rushing down the hill wildly. He couldn’t stop. Faster and faster he went. He couldn’t even shout out.

When your parents tell you to wear hearing protectors (护耳器) in noisy places, your first idea may be “What will my friends say?”. What they might say, however, is not as important as what you might lose later on. If you keep your ears in too much noise for too long, you could lose some hearing. The solution is simple. Earplugs and earmuffs (耳塞和耳罩) help protect your hearing from noises. Get comfortable with hearing protectors. Here are some pieces of advice.
Learn about the different kinds of hearing protectors. There are many kinds of earplugs and earmuffs. Choose one that fits you. Practice wearing your hearing protectors around the house to get used to them. At first, you may find that they make your ears feel full. However, just as with new shoes, you’ll get used to them.
Take an extra (额外的) pair of earplugs or earmuffs when you go to a concert or other noisy events. Share them with your friends. Did any of them have ringing in their ears after the last noisy event? This is very common. Let your friends know that hearing protectors can also prevent ringing in the ears.
Find out what your favorite musicians are doing to protect their hearing. They may be rich, but they know their hearing is priceless. So is the hearing of their fans. Some music stars encourage their fans to listen to music at safe levels and to wear hearing protectors at concerts.
Practice what to say if your friends ask why you wear hearing protectors. Be funny: “My dream job is a singer. Hearing loss will kill my dream.” Be smart: “I wear a bicycle helmet (头盔 ) to protect my head and earmuffs to protect my hearing.”
31.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Your friends. B.The noisy events.
C.The favorite musicians. D.The extra pairs of earplugs or earmuffs.
32.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.You shouldn’t take your friends to a noisy place.
B.You should share earplugs or earmuffs with your friends.
C.Your ears often feel terrible after you go to a noisy event.
D.You and your friends should realize the bad results of noisy concerts.
33.Which question does Paragraph 4 answer?
A.How do singers communicate with their fans?
B.Which hearing protectors do singers often choose?
C.Why do singers look cool with hearing protectors?
D.What can we learn from singers about protecting our hearing?

五、读写综合
(一)阅读并回答问题。(共5小题,每小题2分,计10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过6个词。
Can a cricket really tell you the temperature outside? Do fish know if it’s going to be a cold winter? You may hear that groundhogs can predict (预测) the end of the winter. Some of the sayings, like, “if a cat sits with its back to the fire, hard weather can be expected.” may sound unbelievable, but some may be true. Many animals do have stronger senses than humans.
Do animals tell us when a storm is coming? Birds react to the drop in air pressure (气压) before a storm by flying low. Insects stay close to the ground and wolves howl because their ears can sense the pressure change. A good rule is, when animals act strangely, you probably should be careful with the environment (环境) around us.
Do you know the sound of crickets’ chirping (鸣叫) can tell you how hot the day is? Crickets are cold-blooded, so when the temperature in the air changes, the cricket’s body temperature changes with it. As the temperature rises, the cricket’s metabolism (新陈代谢) increases. When the heat rises, crickets chirp. To get the exact temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (℉), count the number of chirps in 14 seconds, and add 40.
Do you have a tried and true weather animal that predicts the weather?

Deforestation leads to habitat loss and soil erosion, and global warming causes extreme weather events.
We must protect the earth because it is our only home. Without a healthy planet, our survival is at risk.
To protect the earth, we can start with small actions. Plant more trees to improve air quality. Save water by fixing leaks and turning off taps. Let’s work together to safeguard our precious earth!
