One day she called up her son and said, “You’d better come to see me because I’m very old and sick.” So her son came to see her. When he came in the door she tried to sing the song: I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always. But she couldn’t finish because she was too old and sick. The son went to his mother.

C City noise never stops. The World Health Organization says that loud noises, like those from traffic or machines, can be a very harmful type of pollution. They can make people feel more stressed, have trouble sleeping, and even cause heart problems. _①__ City sounds are also making life difficult for some animals, for example, the funnel-weaving spiders. _②_ Funnel-weaving spiders make special webs that are not sticky. They wait in their webs for bugs. Then, they quickly move to bite. To do this, the spider needs to feel the vibrations (震动) right away when an insect touches its web. But their webs often stick to things like trees, rocks and buildings. These objects act like highways for vibrations caused by environmental noise like traffic. If there’s too much noise around, it can be difficult for the spider to notice the insects. _③_ Scientists notice city spiders making changes in their webs. The spiders adapt (适应) to noise by creating thicker webs with stronger silk and more connection points. Think of it like how we hang thick curtains to reduce traffic noise. Spiders just improve their webs instead! These designs act like natural noise-canceling headphones (降噪耳机), sending fewer vibrations to the spider. As a result, the spider can better feel the vibrations that really matter. _④_ A team led by scientist Brandi Pessman at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln found out about this clever change. Their study helps us learn more about how animals deal with environmental noise. Humans might get better sound proofing ideas (隔音设计) from it too! 8．What does the word bugs in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Insects. B．Problems. C．Interests. D．Chances. 9．How do city spiders adapt to noise? A．By leaving their webs. B．By moving to quieter areas. C．By changing their ways of hunting. D．By building thicker and stronger webs. 10．Where should we put the sentence “But nature’s full of surprises!”? A．① B．② C．③ D．④ 11．How might studying this change in spiders help humans? A．Teach humans how to make webs. B．Explain humans are cleverer than spiders. C．Help humans make quieter houses. D．Help humans understand spiders better. D 1. Although we now have more free time than before, it seems that we don’t feel that way. We may often waste time on phones or other things. And lots of information and pictures make our minds tired. Then we don’t have enough time to relax. To make ourselves really relaxed, we need to spend our free time well. Here are some useful ways. 2. Think about your activities.

How do you feel about learning all these new things? Let’s be honest: many of us are afraid of new things. 1 In a recent (最近的) speech, Xiaomi’s CEO Lei Jun shared some advice on how to take that first step. When Lei Jun entered university in 1987, he felt “at sea” (困惑的). 2 Because many of them had met similar problems, they were able to offer helpful answers and guidance. Lei’s second tip is to know when to “skip” and come back later. When he started studying computer science, he found his textbook very difficult at first. 3 He also read other related (相关的) books. A few days later, when he went back to the early chapters (篇章), he found they had become much easier to learn. This method can also help you in English reading. When you read an article, you will surely meet new words. 4 Just keep reading. After you finish the whole article, go back to that part. You will often find it’s easier to guess the meaning. As you grow up, you will face many “hard” first steps. 5 Don’t be afraid or give up easily. One day, you will look back and find that many of your “hard” problems were just a piece of cake. A．However, he didn’t stop but tried to read the later chapters first. B．For example, you might not know the word “skip” in this passage. C．Just as the old saying goes, “The first step is always the hardest”. D．Finally, he solved all the problems by working day and night. E．So, don’t be afraid to ask your teachers, parents or friends for advice. F．Instead of staying confused, he asked some older students for help. G．This experience taught him that asking for help is a smart way to learn. 四、词汇运用（共10小题; 每小题1分, 满分10分） 根据短文意思和首字母提示，写出一个完整正确的单词。 Scientists have long wondered how Australia's koalas get enough water to live. A new study p 1 an answer.   The lead writer of the new report on koalas is Valentina Mella of the University of Sydney. It was the earlier i 2 , she explains, that the animals got most of the water they needed in the leaves they ate. In the wild, koalas get water from the plant leaves they eat. But they also get it from water r 3 down from the trees when it rains. Mella and other scientists w 4 koalas in the wild every year. They find that koalas are a 5 at night. They live in trees and depend on them for food, drinking and also for resting places. Koalas spend most of the time high up in the trees. They eat lots of leaves. An adult koala normally eats b 6 0. 5 and 0.8 kg of leaves a day. Koalas sleep about 20 hours a day. Mella notes that a koala usually spends 98% of its 1 7 in trees. She also notes that the only time they come down to the ground is to discover another tree with b 8 leaves. In fact, the word “koala” means “no drink” in the l 9 language. Koalas did not go down onto the ground very often. So it was considered that they had no n 10 to drink water. The koalas’ living environment is getting worse now because the recent fires in Australia have burned about 30% of the forests where they live. 五、选词填空（共10小题; 每小题1分, 满分10分） 从方框中选择恰当的词或短语并用其正确的形式填空（每个词或短语只能用一次）。 take action          harmful            as a result            temperature           thanks to drop             be connected with    sleep             live on               luck 1.

When I arrived in London, I felt nervous by the seven-hour time difference, the new language, the buildings and the people at the train station. Everything was so different. It made me worried about my short stay there. I joined a girls’ middle school and learned many new things there over the course of five days. I felt lonely and helpless at first because my vocabulary (词汇) was poor. Although my learning partner was really friendly, I just couldn’t relax. This feeling continued until a PE class changed everything. Some girls smiled and invited me to join their baseball game. Even though I had never played baseball before, I decided to give it a try and managed to hit the ball on my first try. At that moment, time seemed to stop, and then cheers broke out all around me. The other girls hugged me and shouted, “Hey, Eileen, you did an amazing job!” From then on, I felt truly happy and relaxed, and I really began to fit in with others. That experience helped me see the bridge between London and my hometown, Tianjin—a bridge built with care and love. We may not come from the same country or have the same skin color, but love brings us all together. This lesson continues to hold great importance in my life. 1．When did the writer fly to London? 2．What can we know about the writer’s English? 3．How did the writer feel after the PE lesson? 4．What does the bridge stand for? 5．What lesson does the writer learn? 七、书面表达（共1小题; 满分25分） 友谊是人生宝贵的财富，也是中学生活中重要的组成部分。本周末你校英语俱乐部将举办以“Friendship”为主题的征文活动。假设你是李华，请根据提示和要求，写一篇英语短文进行投稿。请你以“My best friend and I”为题，介绍你的好朋友Mike。 提示：1.
