Singing songs is fun, but is it also useful? For learning English pronunciation (发音), Mr. Joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Joe has used songs to help himself learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same. Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics (歌词) when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don’t have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song, you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget! Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr. Joe’s favorite singer, B．B．King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can understand even 80% of “Why I Sing the Blues”, you are a very advanced student. If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don’t sing so beautifully, you will really impress (给……深刻印象) other people! 1．Which is Mr. Joe’s mother language? A．French. B．English. C．Chinese. D．Japanese. 2．Singing English songs can help us EXCEPT ________.

D．How to Learn English. As we all know, Chinese is the language spoken by the largest number of people in the world. Since China is getting stronger and stronger, Chinese is becoming more and more popular. I am a big fan of Chinese culture and I love China very much. To get to know more about Chinese culture, I need to learn Chinese well. However, Chinese is too difficult for me. Now reading is the hardest part for me. But I won’t give up. I believe that Chinese will be popular all over the world, so it is very important for us all to learn Chinese. Before coming to China, I studied Japanese for 2 years in college. The experience of learning Japanese makes me feel that Chinese ought to be easy to learn as well. But it turns out that I was totally wrong. Now, I speak Chinese every day. And I try my best to communicate with others in Chinese although not very fluent (流利的). With the rapid development of China in recent years, many companies in the UK need to trade with China much more than before. It means more businesses with Chinese and more people who can use Chinese are needed. For them, Chinese is worth learning. My friend, Daniel, is learning Chinese now. 1．Why does Chinese become more popular according to the article? A．Because China is getting stronger and stronger. B．Because Chinese is spoken by the largest number of people in the world. C．Because Chinese is very easy to learn. D．Because many foreigners are interested in Chinese culture. 2．Jimmy thinks ________ is the most difficult part for him to learn Chinese. A．listening B．speaking C．reading D．writing 3．Who doesn’t learn Chinese according to the article? A．Jimmy. B．Amelia. C．Daniel. D．Tony. Do-it-yourself projects let you design your house, offer a way to save money, but even with step-by-step instructions, DIYs don’t always go to plan, nearly 80% of homeowners make a mistake while DIY. Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make. Taking on Too Much More than 40% of people find DIY projects more difficult and expensive than they thought. By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. “It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it” said Bailey Carson, a home care expert. “If you’re doing it just to save money, you might need to think twice. Without the time, tools, and talent to do it correctly and safely, mistakes may cost you more in the long run than simply paying others to help from the beginning.” ▲ A third of people used the wrong tools for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less safe. Many tools are designed for special uses and materials, so if you use them for other tasks, you may get hurt. Always use the proper tools for each project, and make sure you know how to use them. Not Safety First DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous. Of the surveyed people who once made a big mistake during their DIY projects, 47% said that the mistake led to serious problems, while 44% started a fire or fell off a roof or ladder. Take your time and follow all safety rules when using tools. Wear dust masks, safety glasses, hearing protection or gloves to protect yourself. Skipping Important Steps Skipping a key step can end up your whole DIY project-and you might not realize it until much later. In the survey, 47% of people said that they had finished a DIY project before realizing it was done wrong. Read all instructions carefully ahead of time, and make sure you have the necessary skills to complete each step before you begin. 1．According to Paragraph 2, people who ________ are suitable for DIY. A．want to save money B．want to save time C．are skillful enough D．are careful enough 2．Which of the following should be put in the blank (横线)? A．Using the wrong tools B．Using the special tools C．Using the expensive tools D．Using the proper tools 3．Why did the writer write this passage? A．To tell us DIY is very dangerous B．To show DIY can help us save money C．To tell us the importance of DIY D．To help us keep away from DIY mistakes Last Sunday was Mom’s 40th birthday. I wanted to give her a special gift, not a store bought one. Dad suggested a necklace (项链), but I said, “No—I’ll make it myself. It has more love.” So I decided to make a photo frame (相框) with our family photo from last summer. I found materials at home: thin wood from the garage (Dad used it for a shelf), white glue, colorful paper, scissors, markers, and rose stickers—Mom loves roses. At first, I tried cutting the wood into a 20cm square with small scissors, but it slipped. I got angry, then remembered Mom’s words: “Be more patient.” I asked Dad for a small saw. He taught me to use it safely, and we cut the square. I sanded the edges (边缘), so Mom wouldn’t hurt her hands. Then I decorated it: I glued colorful paper on the frame, drew small flowers with markers, stuck rose stickers on the corners, and wrote “I love you, Mom!” in big letters. I also learned to fold three paper hearts and glued them on. It took two hours—my hands were sticky, but I didn’t care. When Mom came home, I gave her the frame. She held it, looked for a long time, then cried happy tears. She hugged me tight: “This is the most beautiful gift! I’ll put it on my desk.” Later, she sent a photo of it to Grandma. DIY gifts aren’t easy—you make mistakes and spend time, but they’re special because of your heart. Try one for your family’s birthday; it just needs to show care. I’m already thinking about Dad’s birthday gift now! 1．What tool did the writer use to cut the wood finally? A．A knife. B．A saw. C．Scissors. D．Dad’s tool. 2．Why did Mom cry when she got the frame? A．Because she didn’t like the rose stickers. B．Because she hurt her hands on the wood edges. C．Because she was sad the frame was not perfect. D．Because she was moved (感动的) by the writer’s love. 3．What does “sanded” mean in Paragraph 3? A．Cut the wood into a square. B．Stuck colorful paper on the wood. C．Made the edges smooth with sandpaper. D．Drew flowers on the wood with markers. 4．What does the writer tell us in the last paragraph? A．DIY gifts are special because of love. B．Family birthdays need expensive gifts. C．Dad’s birthday gift will be a photo frame. D．DIY gifts are easy to make and save time. New Ways to Raise Money Live-streams (网上直播) of animalsShanghai Wildlife Park live-streams every morning to show how the animals live. Thousands of people watch pandas eating bamboo. So far, the zoo has nearly 3.5 million fans. Online adoption (领养)Nanjing Hongshan Forest Zoo gets help from online adoption. It’s a new way for more people to care about animals. About 150 animals have been adopted (领养). Create animal starsNantong Forest Safari Park made a monkey named Kai Sa become a star. Thousands of Kai Sa’s fans have bought the zoo’s annual membership cards (年卡) and visit it every weekend Make cultural and creative products Beijing Zoo has brought out ice creams in the shape of elephants, giraffes and pandas. It also makes stuffed (填 充) toys with the image of tigers. 1．How does Shanghai Wildlife Park raise money? A．By online adoption B．By creating animal stars. C．By live-streaming animals. D．By making cultural and creative products. 2．How many animals in Nanjing Hongshan Forest Zoo have been adopted? A．Over 350. B．About 150. C．Almost 1000. D．Nearly 3.5 million. 3．________ makes stuffed toys with the image of tigers. A．Shanghai Wildlife Park B．Nanjing Hongshan Forest Zoo C．Beijing Zoo D．Nantong Forest Safari Park Sunshine, beaches and coconuts (椰子)—these are why people usually go to Hainan. But more than a good place for travellers and foodies, it’s also a wonderland of plants and animals. Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park is in the south-central part of Hainan Island. It has the best-kept tropical rainforests in China. President Xi visited it in April 2023. The national park covers 4,269 square kilometres, or one-seventh of the island. More than 95 percent of the park is virgin (原始的) forest. The park is home to 3,653 species of vascular plants and 540 species of terrestrial vertebrates. The park is the only home of the world’s most endangered primate (灵长类动物)—the Hainan gibbon. It’s an uncommon species. They look like monkeys, but have no tails. They live in the trees their whole life. Every morning, they whistle loudly to mark their territory (领地). They eat fruits and leaves from more than 130 plants. The number of Hainan gibbons has become larger from fewer than 10 in the 1980s to 36 in 2022. This shows China’s achievements in environmental protection. Not just a sweet home of animals, the park is a “live museum” of amazing plants. More than 400 kinds of plants grow only in Hainan. Cycas hainanensis (海南苏铁) is a wild plant native to the island. With feather-like leaves, this plant can live to be 200 years old. If it lives in the Yangtze River Basin and North China, it grows almost without flowers or fruit. But in Hainan, Cycas hainanensis plants over 10 years old blossom (开花) and have fruit almost every year, thanks to the warm and wet weather. With so many plants and animals, the biodiversity index (指数) of the park—a number to rate species diversity—is as high as 6.28. It is comparable (可比较的) to the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil. That’s why people call the park a treasure for both China and the world. 1．Paragraph 3 is mainly about ________. A．an introduction to the Hainan gibbon B．the views of the park C．the news of the park’s opening D．details of rare plants and animals 2．What do we know about the Hainan gibbon? A．It is a monkey without a tail. B．Its voice sounds like a crying baby. C．It lives on plants and birds. D．It is a species only found in Hainan. 3．From the story, we can infer that a Cycas hainanensis plant ________. A．never blossoms and has fruit B．can only live for 10 years in Hainan C．lives better in warm and wet weather D．first blossoms when it is 10 years old 4．Which of the following may be the writer’s opinion? A．Human activities will surely hurt the rainforest. B．We must start to do something for rare species. C．China has done a great job in protecting the rainforest. D．We should compare our rainforest with the Amazon Rainforest. There is a place named Shark Bay (鲨鱼湾) in the Western Australia. At least 28 kinds of sharks are swimming through the clear water there—the largest in the world. Especially tiger sharks are common visitors to Shark Bay. They move their 15-foot-long (about 4.5 meters) bodies through the seagrass, sometimes catching huge sea cows for a meal. Although tiger sharks are dangerous to them, they are important to the health of the ocean ecosystem. In fact, they can also be our powerful friends in stopping climate change. It all comes back to the seagrass that moves with the waves in Shark Bay. The seagrass is food for the sea cows. Each eats about 40 kilograms of seagrass a day. By controlling the sea cow populations, tiger sharks in Shark Bay help the seagrass beds grow. A good seagrass bed stores twice as much CO2 per square mile as forests do on land. But in the world, tiger shark populations are becoming smaller, including some populations in Australia. Off Australia’s northeast coast of Queensland, it is said that tiger sharks have fallen by at least 71%, largely because of overfishing and bycatch. A reduction in tiger sharks means more seagrass eaten and less carbon kept in the ocean. In Shark Bay, the tiger sharks are able to achieve the balance by keeping sea cow populations down, and not all the bay’s seagrass is lost. But here comes the question: What if sharks disappeared from the bay? The need to understand how they support their ecosystems becomes even more urgent. 1．Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 1? A．Tiger sharks eat sea cows. B．The tiger shark is the largest of its kind. C．A seagrass bed is about 4.5 meters long. D．Tiger sharks are harmful to the ocean ecosystem. 2．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A．Visitors. B．Sea cows. C．Tiger sharks. D．Seagrass beds. 3．How much seagrass can two sea cows eat a day? A．About 20 kg. B．About 40 kg. C．About 60 kg. D．About 80 kg. 4．What’s the situation of tiger sharks? A．They are overfishing sea cows. B．They are moving out of Australia. C．Their populations are becoming smaller. D．They have disappeared. 5．What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A．To give some information about seagrass. B．To give some information about Australia. C．To tell us there will be more sea cows in the future. D．To call on humans to take action to protect tiger sharks. Summer in your country may not be the same as summer in other countries. Summer is different all around the world! In the Northern Hemisphere (the half of the Earth above the equator) summer is in the months of June, July and August, but in the Southern Hemisphere (the half of the Earth below the equator) summer happens in December, January and February. The time the sun rises and sets is different around the world too. In places that are in the extreme north or south of the Earth, such as Antarctica or Lapland, there is sunshine 24 hours a day during summer! This is called the “midnight sun” because you can see the sun at midnight during the summer. The weather can be different in summer too. In countries with tropical (热带) climates, such as Thailand or Bangladesh, the weather in summer is very hot and humid with lots of rain. Some countries, such as Spain, have hot and dry summers. In some countries, summer isn’t very hot at all. In Iceland the average (平均的) summer temperature is around 15℃. Even the sounds of summer are different! In some countries, such as China, you can hear the really loud buzzing sound of cicadas (蝉) all summer long. Summer traditions are also different all around the world. In Mexico, people eat ice lollies called paletas that can be made from fruits such as strawberry, mango or even avocados (牛油果)! In Japan, people eat flavoured shaved ice (调味刨冰) called Kakigori and cold noodles in the hot summer weather. 1．Choose the best sentence to fill in the blank “ ” in Paragraph 2. A．Summer lasts longer in some parts of the world. B．Summer happens at different times in different places. C．Summer can happen at the same time in both hemispheres.

B．To show us summer traditions in different countries. C．To tell us how summer is different in the world. D．To explain why summer is different around the world. Did you feel like winter arrived overnight? According to CCTV, many areas in northern China have experienced a lot of rain, along with a big temperature drop in October. Some places have turned on the heating earlier than usual. Also, Nov 7 marked this year’s li dong of the solar term (节气). So, has winter really come? Liu Yueli from the Shanxi provincial climate center told Xinhua that li dong is one of the “24 solar terms”. In these terms, li dong marks the beginning of winter. Winter reaches its midpoint at Dong Zhi and ends just before li chun. However, meteorologically (从气象学角度看), there is a clear standard for when winter begins. When the average temperature is below 10℃ for five days in a row, the first day marks the start of winter. This way, different areas enter winter at different times. However, many people feel very cold even before winter arrives. This is because the temperature we feel can be different from the actual temperature due to factors like wind and humidity (湿度). When it’s above 0℃, a two-level (两级的) increase in wind makes it feel 3-5℃ colder. Below 0℃, the same wind increase makes it feel 6-8℃ colder, as reported by Guanhai News. Also, this year, autumn was very short in many places. Warm temperatures went straight down to around 10℃. This big change from “warm” to “cold” makes it feel like winter is coming earlier, noted Xinhua. 1．What marks the start of winter in meteorology? A．The date of the first snowfall. B．The start of the li dong solar term. C．Three days in a row below 10℃. D．First of five straight days averaging below 10℃. 2．Why might people feel colder than the actual temperature? A．Because of the clothes they wear. B．Because of the amount of sunlight. C．Because of the wind and humidity. D．Because of higher body temperature. 3．What can we learn from the text? A．Autumn lasted longer this year than before. B．Dong zhi is the first solar term of winter. C．Different places come into winter at different times. D．Big snow made the temperature drop quickly in North China. 4．What does the text mainly explain? A．Why do people feel cold earlier this year. B．Why does winter come earlier this year. C．How solar terms divide the four seasons. D．Why was autumn very short this year. The Hutuo River is the mother river of Shijiazhuang, the capital city of Hebei. The Hutuo River is famous for its rich history and cultural meaning. It has been important for transportation (交通) for centuries and has played an important part in the development of the area. The river has also been the subject of many poems and works of art in history. However, about 20 years ago, it was dirty and almost dried up. Thanks to the government’s work, it has become much cleaner. Wu Wenzhong, a 58-year-old villager, lives near the river. “My friends and I often played with water, swam and caught fish in it when I was a child. I liked catching fish best,” he said. He remembers that the villagers had to cross the river by boat at that time. But as time passed by, it got dirty and started to dry up. To remediate (治理) the river, the government has done a lot of things. They clean the river up and build levees (防洪堤). They plant trees, grass and flowers to green the riverside. They build up fences (防护栏) and put up “No Swimming” signs along the river to protect people. They stop factories from putting waste water into the river. They keep an eye on the river to make sure it stays clean for the fish, birds and people who live nearby. They also have a long-term plan to keep the river in good condition. Now, there are more than 20 kinds of birds living around the river. It becomes a home for birds again. People can enjoy a day outdoors with the beauty of nature along the river. Wu and other villagers are happy to see the river looking good again. The Hutuo River’s story shows that when people work together to take care of nature, good things can happen. 1．How does the writer introduce the subject in Paragraph 1? A．By giving examples. B．By giving facts. C．By asking questions. D．By quoting (引用) a famous poem. 2．What was Wu Wenzhong’s favourite activity when he was a child? A．Boating. B．Swimming. C．Planting trees. D．Catching fish. 3．What do we know about today’s Hutuo River? A．Many birds live around it. B．Factories get water from it. C．It’s still in bad condition. D．Villagers can have fun swimming in it. 4．What does “keep an eye on” mean in Paragraph 4? A．see off B．watch over C．find out D．look for 5．Which question does Paragraph 4 mainly answer? A．How does the river look now? B．When do people green the riverside? C．Why is the river important? D．What actions has the government taken? These years, the world has seen more and more natural disasters. Floods sweep through villages, droughts dry up farmlands, and strong storms destroy houses. These disasters bring great harm to people’s lives. Many lose their homes and have to move to safe places. Some even lose their family members. Crops die in the fields, so food becomes hard to get. Schools close, roads break, and people can’t work or study as usual. Clean water also becomes scarce in disaster-hit areas. Why do these disasters happen so often? One main reason is human activities. People cut down too many trees to build houses or make paper. Factories and cars give off dirty smoke and waste water, polluting the air and rivers. We also overuse natural resources (自然资源) like coal and oil. All these actions break nature’s balance. When nature can’t stand it anymore, it fights back with disasters. We must learn to live with nature, not against it. Let’s plant more trees—they can stop floods and keep the air fresh. Save water and energy: turn off lights when leaving rooms, and don’t waste water while washing hands. Protect wild animals, as they help keep ecosystems balanced (生态系统平衡). Use public transport more instead of driving cars to cut pollution. Nature is our only home. If we care for it well, disasters will become fewer. People can live safely and happily for a long time. Small actions from everyone can make a big difference. Let’s work together to keep harmony (和谐) between humans and nature. 1．Which natural disasters are mentioned in the passage? A．Earthquakes and wildfires. B．Floods, droughts and storms. C．Tsunamis and snowstorms. D．Landslides and sandstorms. 2．What harm do natural disasters bring? A．People’s homes are destroyed. B．More crops grow well. C．People become richer. D．Water becomes more abundant. 3．What human activity causes problems for nature according to the passage? A．Planting more trees.

In the evening, a hotel worker asked all the visitors to go to the dining hall. When we were all inside, we put tables in front of the doors and then we got down on the floor together in the corner. We waited and waited. The winds got louder, the rain became heavier and then it suddenly went dark. I was so startled that I held my dad’s hand. We stayed there for a long time.

These two kinds of personalities (性格) are much discussed online. Even twins may be quite different from each other, such as personalities, hobbies, friends etc. To learn more about that, let’s hear from the following twins. ②Andy, an Extrovert (性格外向者) I enjoy trying new things and playing with many friends. Ken and I head to the beach on Saturdays to surf, and on Sundays, I hang out with Tom, eating and riding. At school, Larry is my best friend. I don’t spend much time with him over the weekends because he likes to play video games at home just by himself. I’m cool with it because I can visit other friends. I value (重视) his friendship a lot because Larry cares about me and often gives great advice to my problems. ③Anna, an Introvert (性格内向的人) I think nothing is more enjoyable than staying on my own with a great book in hand. However, I do also need time with my two best friends, Sue and Tina. Sue is so full of life that her jokes bring much joy to my quiet days. Tina is more like me and she understands me better than I do. We often take a long walk to share our feelings. I love both my friends and need their different personalities to make my life colorful. ④Well, there we have it from the horse’s mouth. From Andy and Anna, extroverts and introverts can be friends and also need friends with different personalities.

For learning English pronunciation (发音), Mr. Joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Joe has used songs to help himself learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same. Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics (歌词) when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don’t have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song, you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget! Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr. Joe’s favorite singer, B．B．King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can understand even 80% of “Why I Sing the Blues”, you are a very advanced student. If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don’t sing so beautifully, you will really impress (给……深刻印象) other people! 1．Which is Mr. Joe’s mother language? A．French. B．English.

At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs.”以及最后一段“When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don’t sing so beautifully, you will really impress (给……深刻印象) other people!”可知，唱歌可以帮助我们正确发音、记住新单词和给人留下深刻印象，但并未提到唱歌能让我们唱得更好。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters.

At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs.”以及全文内容可知，本文主要探讨了唱歌在英语学习中的益处，因此最佳标题为“English Songs helps English Learning（英文歌曲有助于英语学习）”。故选C。 As we all know, Chinese is the language spoken by the largest number of people in the world. Since China is getting stronger and stronger, Chinese is becoming more and more popular. I am a big fan of Chinese culture and I love China very much. To get to know more about Chinese culture, I need to learn Chinese well. However, Chinese is too difficult for me. Now reading is the hardest part for me. But I won’t give up. I believe that Chinese will be popular all over the world, so it is very important for us all to learn Chinese. Before coming to China, I studied Japanese for 2 years in college. The experience of learning Japanese makes me feel that Chinese ought to be easy to learn as well. But it turns out that I was totally wrong. Now, I speak Chinese every day. And I try my best to communicate with others in Chinese although not very fluent (流利的). With the rapid development of China in recent years, many companies in the UK need to trade with China much more than before. It means more businesses with Chinese and more people who can use Chinese are needed. For them, Chinese is worth learning.

Now reading is the hardest part for me...so it is very important for us all to learn Chinese.”“Now, I speak Chinese every day. And I try my best to communicate with others in Chinese although not very fluent (流利的).”“My friend, Daniel, is learning Chinese now.”可知，文中提到了Jimmy、Amelia和Daniel在学习汉语，但未提及Tony学汉语。故选D。 Do-it-yourself projects let you design your house, offer a way to save money, but even with step-by-step instructions, DIYs don’t always go to plan, nearly 80% of homeowners make a mistake while DIY. Here are four of the biggest mistakes that homeowners often make. Taking on Too Much More than 40% of people find DIY projects more difficult and expensive than they thought. By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have, you may end up with a big mess and an unfinished project. “It’s important to think about why you want to DIY and what you’re hoping to get out of it” said Bailey Carson, a home care expert. “If you’re doing it just to save money, you might need to think twice. Without the time, tools, and talent to do it correctly and safely, mistakes may cost you more in the long run than simply paying others to help from the beginning.” ▲ A third of people used the wrong tools for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less safe. Many tools are designed for special uses and materials, so if you use them for other tasks, you may get hurt. Always use the proper tools for each project, and make sure you know how to use them. Not Safety First DIY mistakes can not only be costly but also dangerous. Of the surveyed people who once made a big mistake during their DIY projects, 47% said that the mistake led to serious problems, while 44% started a fire or fell off a roof or ladder. Take your time and follow all safety rules when using tools. Wear dust masks, safety glasses, hearing protection or gloves to protect yourself. Skipping Important Steps Skipping a key step can end up your whole DIY project-and you might not realize it until much later. In the survey, 47% of people said that they had finished a DIY project before realizing it was done wrong. Read all instructions carefully ahead of time, and make sure you have the necessary skills to complete each step before you begin. 1．According to Paragraph 2, people who ________ are suitable for DIY. A．want to save money B．want to save time C．are skillful enough D．are careful enough 2．Which of the following should be put in the blank (横线)? A．Using the wrong tools B．Using the special tools C．Using the expensive tools D．Using the proper tools 3．Why did the writer write this passage? A．To tell us DIY is very dangerous B．To show DIY can help us save money C．To tell us the importance of DIY D．To help us keep away from DIY mistakes 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 【导语】本文主要讨论DIY可能遇到的常见错误以及如何避免这些错误。 1．细节理解题。根据“By taking on a task that needs more time or skills than you have,”可知，想要DIY，需要熟练的技能。故选C。 2．推理判断题。根据“A third of people used the wrong tools for a DIY project, which can make the job more difficult and less safe…”可知，本段提出三分之一的人为DIY项目使用了错误的工具，并解释了错误工具会导致工作更困难、更不安全。故可推知，选项A“使用错误的工具”应该填入空处。故选A。 3．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讨论DIY可能遇到的常见错误以及如何避免这些错误。故可推知，作者写这篇文章是为了帮助我们远离DIY错误。故选D。 Last Sunday was Mom’s 40th birthday. I wanted to give her a special gift, not a store bought one. Dad suggested a necklace (项链), but I said, “No—I’ll make it myself. It has more love.” So I decided to make a photo frame (相框) with our family photo from last summer. I found materials at home: thin wood from the garage (Dad used it for a shelf), white glue, colorful paper, scissors, markers, and rose stickers—Mom loves roses. At first, I tried cutting the wood into a 20cm square with small scissors, but it slipped. I got angry, then remembered Mom’s words: “Be more patient.” I asked Dad for a small saw. He taught me to use it safely, and we cut the square. I sanded the edges (边缘), so Mom wouldn’t hurt her hands. Then I decorated it: I glued colorful paper on the frame, drew small flowers with markers, stuck rose stickers on the corners, and wrote “I love you, Mom!” in big letters. I also learned to fold three paper hearts and glued them on. It took two hours—my hands were sticky, but I didn’t care. When Mom came home, I gave her the frame. She held it, looked for a long time, then cried happy tears. She hugged me tight: “This is the most beautiful gift! I’ll put it on my desk.” Later, she sent a photo of it to Grandma. DIY gifts aren’t easy—you make mistakes and spend time, but they’re special because of your heart. Try one for your family’s birthday; it just needs to show care. I’m already thinking about Dad’s birthday gift now! 1．What tool did the writer use to cut the wood finally? A．A knife. B．A saw. C．Scissors. D．Dad’s tool. 2．Why did Mom cry when she got the frame? A．Because she didn’t like the rose stickers. B．Because she hurt her hands on the wood edges. C．Because she was sad the frame was not perfect. D．Because she was moved (感动的) by the writer’s love. 3．What does “sanded” mean in Paragraph 3? A．Cut the wood into a square. B．Stuck colorful paper on the wood. C．Made the edges smooth with sandpaper. D．Drew flowers on the wood with markers. 4．What does the writer tell us in the last paragraph? A．DIY gifts are special because of love. B．Family birthdays need expensive gifts. C．Dad’s birthday gift will be a photo frame. D．DIY gifts are easy to make and save time. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者在妈妈40岁生日时，决定亲手制作一个带家庭照片的相框作为特别礼物，在制作过程中克服困难，最终妈妈收到礼物很感动，作者也感悟到DIY礼物的意义。 1．细节理解题。根据“I asked Dad for a small saw. He taught me to use it safely, and we cut the square.”可知，作者最终用锯子切割木材。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“She held it, looked for a long time, then cried happy tears. She hugged me tight...”可推断，妈妈哭泣是因为被作者的爱感动。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据“I sanded the edges (边缘), so Mom wouldn’t hurt her hands.”可知，作者的目的是让边缘光滑，避免伤到手，因此可推知，sanded意为“用砂纸打磨边缘使其光滑”。故选C。 4．观点态度题。根据“DIY gifts aren’t easy—you make mistakes and spend time, but they’re special because of your heart.”可知，作者想告诉我们DIY礼物因爱而特别。故选A。 New Ways to Raise Money Live-streams (网上直播) of animalsShanghai Wildlife Park live-streams every morning to show how the animals live.

But more than a good place for travellers and foodies, it’s also a wonderland of plants and animals. Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park is in the south-central part of Hainan Island. It has the best-kept tropical rainforests in China. President Xi visited it in April 2023. The national park covers 4,269 square kilometres, or one-seventh of the island. More than 95 percent of the park is virgin (原始的) forest. The park is home to 3,653 species of vascular plants and 540 species of terrestrial vertebrates. The park is the only home of the world’s most endangered primate (灵长类动物)—the Hainan gibbon. It’s an uncommon species. They look like monkeys, but have no tails. They live in the trees their whole life. Every morning, they whistle loudly to mark their territory (领地). They eat fruits and leaves from more than 130 plants. The number of Hainan gibbons has become larger from fewer than 10 in the 1980s to 36 in 2022. This shows China’s achievements in environmental protection. Not just a sweet home of animals, the park is a “live museum” of amazing plants. More than 400 kinds of plants grow only in Hainan. Cycas hainanensis (海南苏铁) is a wild plant native to the island. With feather-like leaves, this plant can live to be 200 years old. If it lives in the Yangtze River Basin and North China, it grows almost without flowers or fruit. But in Hainan, Cycas hainanensis plants over 10 years old blossom (开花) and have fruit almost every year, thanks to the warm and wet weather. With so many plants and animals, the biodiversity index (指数) of the park—a number to rate species diversity—is as high as 6.28. It is comparable (可比较的) to the Amazon Rainforest in Brazil.

At least 28 kinds of sharks are swimming through the clear water there—the largest in the world. Especially tiger sharks are common visitors to Shark Bay. They move their 15-foot-long (about 4.5 meters) bodies through the seagrass, sometimes catching huge sea cows for a meal. Although tiger sharks are dangerous to them, they are important to the health of the ocean ecosystem. In fact, they can also be our powerful friends in stopping climate change. It all comes back to the seagrass that moves with the waves in Shark Bay. The seagrass is food for the sea cows. Each eats about 40 kilograms of seagrass a day. By controlling the sea cow populations, tiger sharks in Shark Bay help the seagrass beds grow. A good seagrass bed stores twice as much CO2 per square mile as forests do on land. But in the world, tiger shark populations are becoming smaller, including some populations in Australia. Off Australia’s northeast coast of Queensland, it is said that tiger sharks have fallen by at least 71%, largely because of overfishing and bycatch. A reduction in tiger sharks means more seagrass eaten and less carbon kept in the ocean. In Shark Bay, the tiger sharks are able to achieve the balance by keeping sea cow populations down, and not all the bay’s seagrass is lost. But here comes the question: What if sharks disappeared from the bay? The need to understand how they support their ecosystems becomes even more urgent. 1．Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 1? A．Tiger sharks eat sea cows. B．The tiger shark is the largest of its kind. C．A seagrass bed is about 4.5 meters long. D．Tiger sharks are harmful to the ocean ecosystem. 2．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? A．Visitors. B．Sea cows. C．Tiger sharks. D．Seagrass beds. 3．How much seagrass can two sea cows eat a day? A．About 20 kg. B．About 40 kg. C．About 60 kg. D．About 80 kg. 4．What’s the situation of tiger sharks? A．They are overfishing sea cows. B．They are moving out of Australia. C．Their populations are becoming smaller. D．They have disappeared. 5．What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A．To give some information about seagrass. B．To give some information about Australia. C．To tell us there will be more sea cows in the future. D．To call on humans to take action to protect tiger sharks. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了澳大利亚鲨鱼湾的虎鲨在维持海洋生态系统平衡以及缓解气候变化方面的重要作用。 1．细节理解题。根据“They move their 15-foot-long (about 4.5 meters) bodies through the seagrass, sometimes catching huge sea cows for a meal.”可知，虎鲨吃海牛。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据“Although tiger sharks are dangerous to them, they are important to the health of the ocean ecosystem.”可知，虎鲨对它们很危险，但它们对海洋生态系统的健康很重要，划线部分“they”指代前文提到的“虎鲨”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“Each eats about 40 kilograms of seagrass a day.”可知，每头每天吃40公斤的海草，故两头海牛每天吃80公斤海草。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据“But in the world, tiger shark populations are becoming smaller”可知，虎鲨种群正变得越来越小。故选C。 5．主旨大意题。根据“A reduction in tiger sharks means more seagrass eaten and less carbon kept in the ocean.”及“But here comes the question: What if sharks disappeared from the bay? The need to understand how they support their ecosystems becomes even more urgent.”并通读全文可知，此处介绍了虎鲨的减少带来的危害，故作者的写作目的是呼吁保护虎鲨。故选D。 Summer in your country may not be the same as summer in other countries. Summer is different all around the world! In the Northern Hemisphere (the half of the Earth above the equator) summer is in the months of June, July and August, but in the Southern Hemisphere (the half of the Earth below the equator) summer happens in December, January and February. The time the sun rises and sets is different around the world too. In places that are in the extreme north or south of the Earth, such as Antarctica or Lapland, there is sunshine 24 hours a day during summer! This is called the “midnight sun” because you can see the sun at midnight during the summer. The weather can be different in summer too. In countries with tropical (热带) climates, such as Thailand or Bangladesh, the weather in summer is very hot and humid with lots of rain. Some countries, such as Spain, have hot and dry summers. In some countries, summer isn’t very hot at all. In Iceland the average (平均的) summer temperature is around 15℃. Even the sounds of summer are different! In some countries, such as China, you can hear the really loud buzzing sound of cicadas (蝉) all summer long. Summer traditions are also different all around the world. In Mexico, people eat ice lollies called paletas that can be made from fruits such as strawberry, mango or even avocados (牛油果)!

According to CCTV, many areas in northern China have experienced a lot of rain, along with a big temperature drop in October. Some places have turned on the heating earlier than usual. Also, Nov 7 marked this year’s li dong of the solar term (节气). So, has winter really come? Liu Yueli from the Shanxi provincial climate center told Xinhua that li dong is one of the “24 solar terms”. In these terms, li dong marks the beginning of winter. Winter reaches its midpoint at Dong Zhi and ends just before li chun. However, meteorologically (从气象学角度看), there is a clear standard for when winter begins. When the average temperature is below 10℃ for five days in a row, the first day marks the start of winter. This way, different areas enter winter at different times. However, many people feel very cold even before winter arrives. This is because the temperature we feel can be different from the actual temperature due to factors like wind and humidity (湿度). When it’s above 0℃, a two-level (两级的) increase in wind makes it feel 3-5℃ colder. Below 0℃, the same wind increase makes it feel 6-8℃ colder, as reported by Guanhai News. Also, this year, autumn was very short in many places. Warm temperatures went straight down to around 10℃. This big change from “warm” to “cold” makes it feel like winter is coming earlier, noted Xinhua. 1．What marks the start of winter in meteorology? A．The date of the first snowfall. B．The start of the li dong solar term. C．Three days in a row below 10℃. D．First of five straight days averaging below 10℃. 2．Why might people feel colder than the actual temperature? A．Because of the clothes they wear. B．Because of the amount of sunlight. C．Because of the wind and humidity. D．Because of higher body temperature. 3．What can we learn from the text? A．Autumn lasted longer this year than before. B．Dong zhi is the first solar term of winter. C．Different places come into winter at different times. D．Big snow made the temperature drop quickly in North China. 4．What does the text mainly explain? A．Why do people feel cold earlier this year. B．Why does winter come earlier this year. C．How solar terms divide the four seasons. D．Why was autumn very short this year. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文解释了“人们感觉冬天提前到来”的原因：包括立冬节气、气象学的冬季标准，以及风、湿度等因素导致体感温度低于实际温度，还有今年秋季时间短、气温骤降的影响。 1．细节理解题。根据“meteorologically... When the average temperature is below 10℃ for five days in a row, the first day marks the start of winter”可知，气象学中冬季开始的标志是“连续5天平均气温低于10℃的第一天”，故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“the temperature we feel can be different from the actual temperature due to factors like wind and humidity”可知，风与湿度会让体感温度更低，故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“different areas enter winter at different times”可知，不同地区入冬时间不同。故选C。 4．主旨大意题。文章围绕人们为何更早感觉到寒冷展开，解释了体感温度、秋季骤冷等原因，核心是说明今年人们更早觉得冷的原因，故选A。 The Hutuo River is the mother river of Shijiazhuang, the capital city of Hebei. The Hutuo River is famous for its rich history and cultural meaning. It has been important for transportation (交通) for centuries and has played an important part in the development of the area. The river has also been the subject of many poems and works of art in history. However, about 20 years ago, it was dirty and almost dried up. Thanks to the government’s work, it has become much cleaner. Wu Wenzhong, a 58-year-old villager, lives near the river. “My friends and I often played with water, swam and caught fish in it when I was a child. I liked catching fish best,” he said. He remembers that the villagers had to cross the river by boat at that time. But as time passed by, it got dirty and started to dry up. To remediate (治理) the river, the government has done a lot of things. They clean the river up and build levees (防洪堤). They plant trees, grass and flowers to green the riverside. They build up fences (防护栏) and put up “No Swimming” signs along the river to protect people. They stop factories from putting waste water into the river. They keep an eye on the river to make sure it stays clean for the fish, birds and people who live nearby. They also have a long-term plan to keep the river in good condition. Now, there are more than 20 kinds of birds living around the river. It becomes a home for birds again. People can enjoy a day outdoors with the beauty of nature along the river. Wu and other villagers are happy to see the river looking good again.

Floods sweep through villages, droughts dry up farmlands, and strong storms destroy houses. These disasters bring great harm to people’s lives. Many lose their homes and have to move to safe places. Some even lose their family members. Crops die in the fields, so food becomes hard to get. Schools close, roads break, and people can’t work or study as usual. Clean water also becomes scarce in disaster-hit areas. Why do these disasters happen so often? One main reason is human activities. People cut down too many trees to build houses or make paper. Factories and cars give off dirty smoke and waste water, polluting the air and rivers. We also overuse natural resources (自然资源) like coal and oil. All these actions break nature’s balance. When nature can’t stand it anymore, it fights back with disasters. We must learn to live with nature, not against it. Let’s plant more trees—they can stop floods and keep the air fresh. Save water and energy: turn off lights when leaving rooms, and don’t waste water while washing hands. Protect wild animals, as they help keep ecosystems balanced (生态系统平衡). Use public transport more instead of driving cars to cut pollution. Nature is our only home. If we care for it well, disasters will become fewer. People can live safely and happily for a long time. Small actions from everyone can make a big difference. Let’s work together to keep harmony (和谐) between humans and nature. 1．Which natural disasters are mentioned in the passage? A．Earthquakes and wildfires. B．Floods, droughts and storms. C．Tsunamis and snowstorms. D．Landslides and sandstorms. 2．What harm do natural disasters bring? A．People’s homes are destroyed.

We enjoyed the fresh air and would live in the hotel room for another two days. However, I thought it’s one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life! A storm woke me up early. I got up and looked out of the window of our hotel. I listened to the thunder and watched the lightning (闪电). It wasn’t scary at that time, but it was exciting! But then I looked at my phone and saw on the news that a hurricane was coming. I asked my dad what a hurricane is and asked him if he knew what to do. He told me not to worry because a hurricane is just a big storm. We stayed in our hotel room and by the afternoon, there was even more rain. And the winds were getting stronger and stronger. In the evening, a hotel worker asked all the visitors to go to the dining hall. When we were all inside, we put tables in front of the doors and then we got down on the floor together in the corner. We waited and waited. The winds got louder, the rain became heavier and then it suddenly went dark. I was so startled that I held my dad’s hand. We stayed there for a long time.
