Yes-school is for learning Classroom pets are adorable,but that's exactly the problem.Students will want to play with them all day,rather than paying attention to reading,math,or science.Taking care of class pets requires time and effort,which isn't fair to teachers.Even if kids help,the teacher is ultimately responsible for the animals and making sure someone takes them home during school breaks.Noisy classrooms can also be scary and stressful for pets,which can cause health problems to them.Besides,students and teachers might not know the best way to care for them,and if the animals need to see a vet,who will pay the bill for that?Overall,it's not a great idea. No-they're a beneficial bonus Caring for animals in class teaches students to take care of another living thing and helps them learn responsibility and compassion.Many students don't have pets at home,so this is their only chance to have that experience.Students can also develop strong emotional bonds with class pets, which can positively affect their behavior and performance in school.And kids who are feeling stressed or upset can spend time with the animal,which will help them calm down and feel better. Class pets are also great for learning.There are many ways to incorporate them into math problems, creative writing,or science lessons. )16.What is the main argument against having pets in the classroom?

C Abe no Nakamaro was born in a noble Japanese family.As a young man,he was smart and hard-working.In 717,Abe was sent to China to study Chinese culture by the Japanese government.

While learning from China,Abe also shared Japanese culture and customs with Chinese scholars and officials.He introduced Japanese poems (waka),a short poem style.He also talked about Japanese festivals,like the Star Festival,which was celebrated with writing poems.This helped Chinese people learn about Japanese life.

B.A growing number of studies show that learning a second language has huge benefits. C.Because of this,many companies only hire people who speak two languages. D People who speak more than one language do this brain exercise every day. E They discovered that these people were better at understanding new information. F.In a way,each new language you learn connects you to more people,more ideas,and more experiences. Why is it good to speak more than just one language? 26 It is not only for communication but also for our mental and social development. According to a group of scientists in Canada,using two languages is good for the brain.The scientists studied people who grew up speaking two languages.7 That's because they are good at dealing with important things and ignoring useless information.Besides,as we exercise our bodies to make them stronger,we may also exercise our minds to make them work better. 28 _They jump from one language to another,depending on who they are talking to.This constant switching helps improve memory and concentration().Therefore,they generally make better decisions and are able to solve problems more easily. Moreover,speaking another language helps people become more open-minded. 29 When people grow up speaking two languages,they learn to see things from different points of view.Because of this,they find it easier to get along with all kinds of people whenever they visit a new part of the world. Learning another language does more than improve your brain.It actually reshapes how you see the world.30 So,if you have the chance to learn a new language,go for it! 深圳实验学校2025-2026学年第一学期期末联考初二年级英语试卷 第5页共8页 第三节信息匹配 下面的材料A~F分别介绍了六个深圳学校的"每周半天计划"。请根据五个人的喜好和需求选 择适合他们的活动。（共5小题，每小题1.5分） A.Technology Exploration Students visit technology companies and innovation centers to learn about new inventions,smart buildings,and the future of Al.They experience the power of technology in person.
