To follow his dream, he moved to Suzhou, a city famous for its fine crafts. To Li round fans mean a perfect mix of traditional skills, like making the frame, designing patterns and adding beautiful things. Although small in size, these fans show endless creative ideas. Their surfaces are often made of fine silk or other colourful materials. Li’s designs are also simple and creative. He often finds ideas in his daily life. One of his most unforgettable experiences was during a TV interview. When he saw shadows (阴影) on a crumpled (弄皱) piece of paper, he thought of a plum branch (梅枝). This gave him the idea to create one of his favourite fans. Later, the fan became popular and the famous film star Liu Yifei used it to take photos. In these years, Li has started adding Western styles to his fans, making art speak to people around the world. “As China connects more with the world, Chinese art is growing more popular internationally,” he said. 24. Which of the following about Li Jing’s fans is TRUE in the passage? A. They are of the same size and very creative. B. They are used in some Peking Opera shows. C. They are made with skills like pattern design. D. They are only made of smooth silk and cotton. 25. How did Li Jing get his creative idea in Paragraph 3? A. From shadows on paper. B. From colourful materials. C. From other fine round fans. D. From photos with Liu Yifei. 26. What can we learn about Li Jing from the passage? A. He moved to Suzhou to learn Peking Opera. B.

C After Zootopia 2 came out, a kind of snake is being sold on online platforms (平台) like Xianyu, Douyin, and Xiaohongshu. Sellers call it “Gary’s little blue snake” because it looks like a character from this movie. Surprisingly, the price rises to at most 3,000 yuan. This snake, the Island Bamboo Pit Viper, is highly venomous (有毒的). Seeing sellers selling this snake on Xianyu, someone tried to report it to the platform, and believed these living venomous animals shouldn’t be sold on the website. In his report, he told although this kind of snake is not on China’s protected animal list, people also need to get the permission (许可) to keep it. But the platform rejected his report. As the selling keeps increasing, many experts (专家) say this online deal is against the rules. Not everyone can keep them and no postman is allowed to post such living dangerous animals. “If the snake attacks someone, the apps, sellers and companies will get into serious trouble or even pay a higher price for it,” one expert says. “We cannot simply turn anything from films into a pet,” she added. Zootopia 2 is not just fun. It also tells us that we can’t buy or keep whatever we want, because some pets may lead to problems. To keep everyone from danger, we must follow the rules and always put safety first. 27. What can we know about “Gary’s little blue snake”? A. It is not venomous at all. B. It is a friendly pet from Zootopia 2. C. It is very expensive and sold online. D. It is on China’s protected animal list. 28. What does the underlined word “rejected” mean in Paragraph 2? A. cared for B. asked for C. said no to D. agreed to 29. What does the passage mainly want to tell us? A. To show different ideas on selling the snake. B. To teach people the ways to protect the snake. C. To describe why the snake is popular with people. D. To tell people animals in movies can become pets. 30. Where is the passage probably from? A. In a storybook. B. In a newspaper. C. In a travel guide. D. In a science magazine. D On the afternoon of November 26, 2025, a terrible fire started suddenly at Wang Fu Court in Tai Po, Hong Kong. The fire spread fast through seven buildings because of green mesh and scaffolding (防护网和脚手架) for repairs. Unluckily, the fire caused 128 deaths. The Hong Kong government officers acted at once to set up places for homeless people to live for a short time. Also, a team of firemen came but faced great difficulties because of awful heat and heavy smoke. Even if it was very hard, they still managed to save 55 people. Besides the local efforts, the Chinese mainland also took quick action. Guangdong Province sent a large number of things like medicine, water and food. The Red Cross Society of China raised 2 million yuan for Hong Kong. Mainland companies and organizations donated (捐赠) over HK$600 million in all. And 5 million yuan was from the All-China Women’s Federation. Also, many people from the mainland went to blood donation centers in Hong Kong to help. Some offered free online psychological counseling (心理咨询). A local person shared, “Social workers (社会福利工作者) came to check on my child. It gives us a warm feeling.” Heather Yin, a member of the Hong Kong Red Cross, said, “Although this disaster is a hard lesson in city safety, the great kindness from all sides is truly priceless. All the efforts between Hong Kong and the mainland show our deep connection.” 31. What is the reason for the fire to spread fast according to the passage? A. Not enough firemen at first. B. The hot and windy weather. C. A slow call for help by people. D. The green mesh and scaffolding. 32. How did people help after the fire? A. They only helped people in hospitals. B. They provided different forms of help. C. They just sent money, food and medicine. D. They built new houses for the local people. 33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Blood donation. B. Psychological counseling. C. Help of social workers. D. The Hong Kong Red Cross. 34. Why does Heather Yin talk about “the great kindness from all sides”? A. To show people helped each other. B. To describe how the fire was put out. C. To tell the importance of safety lessons. D. To thank the firemen for their hard work. 35.

Some students think they need to focus on every small detail. If this is you, you may miss the most important ideas. Others mostly listen and don’t write much down, but later they find it doesn’t help at all. What’s the smart method? A system called the Cornell Method was invented in the 1950s by Professor Walter Pauk at Cornell University. It is a special system to make it easier for you to take, organize and remember your notes. It’s like having a smart notebook that guides you from listening in class to reviewing (复习) after class! With the Cornell Method, your page is divided into three clear parts, each with its own job. Notes Part: During class, write down the main information in a clear way. In this part, you can record main ideas, key points and examples. Don’t try to write every word—just listen and write down what’s important. Clues (线索) Part: After class, go back to your notes. In this part, write short words, questions, or the most important ideas. This is good for your memory and understanding. Summary Part: Write a few sentences here to tell what the whole page is about. This makes you think about what you learned and helps you keep the main ideas in your mind. The Cornell Method begins to help you take notes, and then it also helps you be active in learning. It follows the next five smart steps, also called the 5R’s. First, record the important things during class. Second, reduce your notes to clues after class. Next, recite (背诵) and test yourself only with the clues. Then, reflect (思考) on what you learned and how it connects to your life. Finally, review your notes every few days. Using this method doesn’t just help you organize your notes—it develops your mind to listen carefully, think deeply and remember longer. So next time you open your notebook, try using the Cornell Method. You may just find that studying becomes easier and even a little bit fun! How Should You Take Notes? Problems Some students write down every small detail, but they may miss the most important ideas; Others mostly listen without writing much down, but later they find it is not ____51____ Introduction to the Cornell Method A system · It helps you take, organize, and remember your notes more ____52____. · Professor Walter Pauk was the ____53____ of the Cornell Method. Three parts Notes Part: · Write down the main information in a ____54____ way. · Avoid trying to write ____55____ during class. Clues Part: ____56____ to your notes and write short words, questions, or the most important ideas after class. Summary Part: Write several ____57____ to tell what the whole page is about. 5R’S · In the ____58____, the Cornell Method helps you take notes, and then it also helps you be an active learner. · In the 5R steps of the Cornell Method, which step is the most important for you? Why? _____________59_____________ Conclusion Using the method helps you not only organize your notes but also develop your mind. 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号相应位置上。 The Indian rhino, also known as the greater one-horned rhino, is the largest kind of rhino on earth.
