With people’s full attention, Wu rode on her horse. Then, the horse ran fast across the field. In just 12 seconds, Wu achieved something incredible—she shot five arrows (箭), and every single one hit the target (靶子). Everyone shouted with joy and surprise.   Wu’s success doesn’t come by chance; it is the result of her years of hard work. Rain or shine, she never misses training. After school, she continues to practise late into the night. Even when she gets hurt, she still says, “I love the sport. I will never give up!” Wu is more than an excellent athlete; she is also a top student at school. Balancing studies and training is challenging, but Wu makes it. She often achieves high grades and wins many awards. To make time for training, she always finishes homework during breaks and rushes to the training ground after school, even having her meals on the run. Looking ahead, Wu has a clear goal: she wants to take part in the 2030 Doha Asian Games and win prizes. Her story encourages others to go after their dreams. 1．What does the underlined word “incredible” mean? A．Helpful. B．Amazing. C．Strange.

After school, she continues to practise late into the night. Even when she gets hurt, she still says, ‘I love the sport. I will never give up!’”指出，她风雨无阻地训练，在放学后，继续练习到深夜，即使受伤也没有停止，①③正确。 3．第三段“Wu is more than an excellent athlete; she is also a top student at school.

Lots of us find it a little bit horrible, but we have to understand that a dentist is someone who wants to help us by making sure that we have healthy teeth and gums (牙龈). Dentists’ job is to give us advice about how to take good care of our teeth and gums. They also tell us about making healthy choices about our eating habits. This is because the choices we make about our food every day can make a big difference to our teeth. Having healthy teeth is an important part of having a healthy body, so dentists encourage us to have cleaning and check-ups for our teeth from time to time. Dentists also do things like filling teeth, removing teeth, polishing teeth and so on. Sometimes they have to take X-rays to look at our teeth and gums to find out what the problem is. There are different kinds of dentists. For example, an orthodontist (正畸医师) fits braces (牙箍) that help people to straighten teeth, and a paediatric (儿科的) dentist looks after children’s teeth. Would you like to be a dentist when you grow up? Here are some skills needed. * ▲ Dentists cannot be impatient during their work. They have to take their time. * Be good with technology. Dentists must learn how to use new tools. * Be able to explain well. Dentists need to be able to explain to the patient what the problem is and how they are going to deal with the problem. 1．What does the underlined word “horrible” probably mean? A．expected B．lovely C．scary D．boring 2．What’s the second paragraph mainly about? A．How important our eating habits are. B．What a dentist’s job is. C．Why we should check up our teeth often. D．When dentists take X-rays for our teeth. 3．How does the writer show that there are different kinds of dentists? A．By explaining reasons. B．By telling stories. C．By giving examples. D．By raising questions. 4．Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” in the text? A．Be hard-working. B．Be patient. C．Be serious. D．Be humorous. 5．What’s the main purpose of the passage? A．To show us the importance of good teeth. B．To introduce a job to us. C．To ask us to take good care of our teeth. D．To advise us to study hard. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．C 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要帮助读者正确认识牙医的工作及其重要性，消除对看牙医的恐惧，并介绍从事这一职业所需的基本素养。 1．第一段“but we have to understand that...healthy teeth and gums.”与“ Lots of us find it a little bit horrible”前后内容相反，可推断下划线词为负面含义的词，并结合“a dentist is someone who wants to help us”可知，很多人对牙医有恐惧心理，选项C“scary”与horrible同义。 2．根据第二段“Dentists’ job is to give us...about our eating habits.”和“ Dentists also do things like filling teeth...what the problem is.”可知，第二段主要在介绍牙医的工作，选项B与之对应。 3．根据第三段“There are different kinds of dentists. For example...”可知，作者通过举例的方式向读者展示了有不同种类的牙医，选项C与之对应。 4．第五段“Dentists cannot be impatient during their work. ”表明，牙医在工作期间不能没有耐心，可知此处给出的建议为“要耐心”，选项B符合语境。 5．结合第二段陈述的牙医的工作、第三段举例的不同种类的牙医以及下文给出的从事牙医所需的技巧可知，本文主要向读者介绍了一份职业——牙医，选项B与之对应。 Passage 4 ①Do you know the job of a travel experience officer (旅行体验官)? It’s an interesting and cool job. Travel experience officers go to different places. They try many things, such as comfortable hotels and delicious food. They do many activities, like hiking in the mountains, sailing on the sea, or joining festivals. Then they share their real feelings with others. They use words, pictures, or videos. This helps people plan trips better, like where to stay and what to see. ②To do this job, you don’t need a good education, but love for travelling. You should know different travel styles, from cheap trips to expensive vacations. Good writing skills help you describe your experiences clearly. Basic photo or video skills let you show how beautiful places are. You must notice small things, like a hotel’s service or the best time to visit a tourist spot. Record every great moment during the trip to write in a lively way. Last but not least, this job also needs a healthy body. ③Why is this job great? Because every trip is a new experience. One day you might wake up by the sea, and the next day you might climb an ancient mountain. You’ll meet friends from other countries, learn about their cultures, and see amazing views. It’s a wonderful way to see the world and share happy stories and useful tips. However, the job is not always easy. It has its difficulties. Bad weather or transport (交通) problems may happen. You must deal with any problem. ④If you are curious about new things, love travelling and enjoy sharing, this job could be perfect for you. What a cool way to turn your love for travelling into a meaningful job! 1．How does the writer begin the text? A．By asking a question. B．By telling a story. C．By using a saying.

A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文介绍了旅行体验官这一职业的工作内容、所需技能、工作利弊以及适合人群，鼓励热爱旅行和分享的人尝试这份有意义的工作。 1．第一段第一句指出：“Do you know the job of a travel experience officer (旅行体验官)?”，作者以问句开篇，因此是通过提问开始文章。 2．第二段指出：“To do this job, you don’t need a good education... Good writing skills... Basic photo or video skills... Last but not least, this job also needs a healthy body.”，说明该工作不需要高学历，需要写作技能、摄影/视频技能和健康的身体。 3．第三段指出：“Why is this job great? Because every trip is a new experience.”，直接说明这份工作很棒的原因是每次旅行都是全新体验。 4．全文依次介绍旅行体验官的工作内容、任职要求、工作优缺点，是对该职业的介绍，而非旅行建议、旅行挑战或成为旅行博主的建议。 5．第一段总起介绍职业；第二段和第三段并列分别说明职业要求和工作评价（好处与困难）；第四段总结并呼吁。因此正确结构应为C选项。 Passage 5 Right now you spend most of your time at school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after junior high school? Will you go to senior high school? Will you be a trader? Maybe it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Someday work will be a big part of your life. What kind of job would be right for you in the future? Think about your interests and your skills.

She enjoyed imagining something in her mind when she was at school. She took art design and computer science lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own. Here is what she says about the meaning of work: “If you have a job you like, work means much more than just making money.

Will you go to senior high school? Will you be a trader?”，连续使用三个问句引出话题，属于“通过提问”的方式引入。 2．第二段指出：“Knowing both your interests and your skills will help you make a better plan for your future job.”，明确说明了解兴趣和技能有助于为未来工作制定更好的计划。 3．第三段指出：“Laura Zhang, an art designer, enjoys her work…”，直接表明她很享受自己的工作。 4．第三段指出：“She enjoyed imagining something in her mind… She took art design lessons…”，美术设计与创作绘画相关，因此她最感兴趣的是创作图画。 5．第一段指出：“Right now you spend most of your time at school. Do you wonder what you are going to do after junior high school?”，面向在校初中生，因此本文最可能是写给学生的。 话题2 人与自我—成长的苦与乐 Passage 6 Dear Sun Meng, In your last email, you asked me what you should do when you are under stress and have worries.

For most teens, physical changes are the first sign of growth. Many boys get taller and their voices become deeper, while girls start to develop their bodies. These changes can make some teens feel shy or worried, but they are normal parts of growing up. Besides physical changes, teens also face mental growth. They begin to think more independently and have their own opinions on many things. Sometimes this leads to arguments with parents or teachers, but it also means they are becoming more mature. Another important gain in growth is learning to make friends. True friends can help teens get through hard times and share their joys. Many teens learn the meaning of loyalty and support from their friendships. Every teen should embrace both the pains and gains of growing up, because they all help shape a better person. 1．What is the first sign of growth for most teens? A．Mental changes. B．Physical changes. C．Making new friends. D．Independent thinking. 2．Why do some teens feel shy or worried during growth? A．Because of their physical changes. B．Because of bad grades. C．Because they have no friends.

Your body starts to grow quickly; school becomes more challenging with harder subjects and more homework. Maybe the biggest change is in your feelings. You might feel worried, unsure, stressed and upset. The bad feelings may lead to mental (心理的) health problems. Therefore, it’s essential to pay attention to teenage development. Then, how can teenagers deal with the growing pains? Speak up. Keeping your feelings to yourself is bad for your mental and physical health: So be brave to express what’s in your mind. Self-care helps too. Try simple things like sitting quietly and focusing on your breathing for a few minutes. They can train your mind, helping you find a quiet, clear and strong space inside yourself. Build your “superhero team”. You can receive support and help from it. Building a support team isn’t about having the most fans on social media, it’s about having people you can truly trust, like your family and friends. Don’t forget the power of physical activity and hobbies. Joining a sports team, learning to cook, growing flowers and so on can be very helpful. It’s like a secret superpower that you can use when things get hard. Beyond these easy self-help steps, outside support can’t be ignored (忽视). When parents discover there is something wrong with their children, they should offer a listening ear and a safe space. Schools can help by offering counseling (咨询) services, peer support groups and mental health education. 1．What changes in teenagers are talked about in the first paragraph? a. Their bodies grow quickly. b. Their schoolwork becomes heavier. c. They often experience bad feelings. d. They have problems with their parents. A．abc B．abd C．acd D．bcd 2．What does the underlined word “essential” mean? A．Common. B．Necessary. C．Interesting. D．Unusual. 3．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．Self-help steps are easy. B．Outside support is important. C．Mental health can’t be ignored. D．Parents and schools should work together. 4．What can be the best title for the text? A．What it is like to be a teenager B．How bad feelings influence teenagers C．How to deal with teenage growing pains D．Why self-care is important to teenagers 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了青少年在成长过程中会经历身体、学业和情感等多方面的变化，尤其是会面临不良情绪，进而可能引发心理健康问题，文章重点探讨了青少年如何应对这些成长中的痛苦，给出了多种应对方法。 1．第一段指出“Your body starts to grow quickly; school becomes more challenging with harder subjects and more homework. Maybe the biggest change is in your feelings. You might feel worried, unsure, stressed and upset”，这直接说明了青少年身体快速生长、学业加重以及常经历不良情绪这些变化，abc选项均符合。 2．第二段提到“The bad-feelings may lead to mental (心理的) health problems. Therefore, it’s essential to pay attention to teenage development”，因为不良情绪会导致心理健康问题，所以关注青少年发展是必要的，“essential”意思是“必要的”，与“Necessary”意思相符。 3．最后一段指出“Beyond these easy self-help steps, outside support can’t be ignored (忽视). When parents discover there is something wrong with their children...Schools can help by...”，说明除了自我帮助步骤外，外界支持也很重要，后面分别阐述了父母和学校能提供的支持，所以该段主要意思是外界支持很重要。 4．文章开篇提到青少年成长中的变化及不良情绪带来的问题，接着重点阐述了青少年应对成长痛苦的方法，如倾诉、自我照顾、建立支持团队、进行体育活动和培养爱好以及寻求外界支持等，所以最佳标题是“How to deal with teenage growing pains”。 话题3 人与社会—团队精神 Passage 11 School Basketball Team Training Camp When: This Saturday (9:00 am—11:30 am) Where: School Gym Activities: 1.

He finished his junior high school studies in two years instead of the usual three years. In 1948, new laws were introduced to separate (划分) Black people from White people. They were not allowed to marry, eat in the same restaurants, or attend the same schools. Mandela decided to fight for the rights of Black people. He studied law to help Black people when they were in trouble. He joined a group called the African National Congress. The people there all wanted to change these unfair laws. The government opposed their activities and imprisoned (关押) Nelson in 1964. However, Nelson never gave up making South Africa a fairer place. In 1990, Nelson was set free from prison, and he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. The next year, Nelson became the first Black president (总统) of South Africa. Nelson Mandela is considered a hero by many people because he helped achieve freedom for millions of people in South Africa. People around the world still remember him. 1．What did Nelson decide to do after the new laws were introduced in 1948? A．Fight for the rights of Black people. B．Leave South Africa for another country. C．Open a restaurant only for Black people. D．Continue working with the government. 2．Why did Nelson study the law? A．To become a famous lawyer.

The next year, Nelson became the first Black president (总统) of South Africa.”，由此可知曼德拉1994年成为南非总统。 5．文章按照曼德拉1918年出生、1948年决定为黑人权利斗争、1964年入狱、1990年获释、1994年当选总统的时间线展开叙述，因此全文是按时间顺序写作的。 Passage 13 Last month, our school held a group English speech competition. My class formed a team to take part in it. At first, our team was in trouble. We chose the topic "The Power of Teamwork". We planned to write the speech together, but no one wanted to take the lead. Li Ming said he was busy with his math exam, and Wang Fang said she was not good at writing. Finally, I had to start the work alone, but I felt very stressed. Then our English teacher, Miss Zhang, gave us some advice. She told us to divide the work according to our strengths. She said, "Li Ming is good at logic, so he can help organize the ideas. Wang Fang is good at speaking, so she can practice the presentation. And you are good at writing, so you can write the speech." We followed her advice. After that, things got much better. Li Ming organized the ideas clearly. Wang Fang practiced hard and her pronunciation was perfect. I wrote the speech carefully. When we had disagreements, we discussed them calmly and found the best solution. We worked closely for two weeks and finally got the first prize in the competition. This experience taught me a lot. I realized that a great team needs members to know their strengths and work together. Each member should do their part well and support each other. When we work as a team, we can achieve more than we can alone. 1．What was the topic of the English speech competition? A．The Power of Teamwork. B．My Favourite Subject. C．The Importance of English.

D．They got a special award. 5．What did the writer learn from the experience? A．A great team needs members to work together and support each other. B．It's best to work alone to avoid disagreements.

Whether in school, sports or future workplaces, working well with others can make a big difference. But what is teamwork? Teamwork is the ability to work together towards the same goal. It includes communicating, sharing and respecting each other’s ideas. When we work together, we can combine (结合) our advantages and skills to solve problems. For example, in a school project, each team member may have different abilities. One student may be good at writing while another student may be good at researching. By sharing tasks based on advantages of everyone, the team gets higher quality results. In this way, teamwork improves not only grades but also the learning experience. In sports, teamwork is the key to success. A soccer team needs players to pass the ball, defend (防守) and score together. If they don’t work together, the team will lose. The members learn to trust and support each other, which helps them build strong relationships on the field. In addition, teamwork can create a sense of belonging (归属感). When we work with others, we feel connected and valued. This connection can encourage us to do more. It also teaches us important life skills, like solving problems and helping others in trouble. In a word, teamwork is very important for success in many areas of life. By learning to work together, we can not only achieve our goals but also build meaningful relationships and important skills that will help us in the future. Teamwork can lead us to great achievements! 1．How does teamwork improve the quality of a school project? A．Everyone works on the same task. B．Team members can focus on their advantages. C．It reduces the work. D．It makes the project more fun. 2．What lesson do members learn through teamwork in sports? A．Winning is the only thing that matters. B．Their skills are more important than teamwork. C．Trust and support are important for success. D．Teamwork is not necessary in sports. 3．According to Paragraph 5, what happens when people feel they belong to a team? A．They can do less work. B．They want to do more for the team. C．They don’t need to solve problems. D．The team will always win. 4．What’s the main purpose of this text? A．To tell exciting stories about famous sports teams. B．To explain the importance of teamwork and its benefits. C．To give step-by-step instructions on how to do a school project. D．To argue that teamwork is more important than working alone. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了团队合作的定义，并从学校项目、体育活动、归属感培养等方面，阐述了团队合作的重要性及其带来的益处。 1．第三段指出：“By sharing tasks based on advantages of everyone, the team gets higher quality results”，这直接说明团队合作通过让成员专注于各自的优势，来提升学校项目的质量。 2．第四段指出：“The members learn to trust and support each other, which helps them build strong relationships on the field”，这直接说明在体育活动中，成员通过团队合作学到信任和支持对成功的重要性。 3．第五段指出：“When we work with others, we feel connected and valued.

It’s okay to do something wrong, but bravely say sorry to make the situation better. This helps build trust in your team. Respect others’ work and encourage everyone to do better. ⑤Much of the work in today’s world is completed in teams.

Ma’s mother died of typhoid (伤寒) at the age of 32 in 1961. His younger brother also died of the same disease in less than two months. 10-year-old Ma saw his family die; he made up his mind to become a doctor. After finishing his studies in middle school in 1967, Ma started to have medical training as a barefoot doctor. He learned both Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. Finally, Ma won the villagers’ trust through his hard work. In the 1960s, malaria (疟疾) made many people lose their lives and people had no idea how to control it. Ma visited his village’s families one by one to tell them about malaria. If someone was not at home, Ma would go out to look for him or her. When some villagers refused to take the medicine, Ma would persuade (说服) them into accepting it. In the 1990s, Ma said he had more than 150 patients a day at the busiest time. At that time, he could make some money. After saving some of the money for his family, Ma used the rest to help poor villagers. Now people live a better life and they want better medical services.

It is not just about getting older, but also about becoming a better person. During our growth, we will experience many changes, such as physical changes, emotional changes and mental changes. Physical changes are the most obvious. As we grow up, our height and weight will increase. Our bodies will become stronger and more mature. For example, boys will have deeper voices and girls will have different body shapes. These changes are normal and are part of growing up. Emotional changes are also common during growth. We may feel happy, sad, excited or worried more easily. We may start to care more about what others think of us and may have more conflicts with our parents. These emotions are normal, and we should learn to deal with them properly. Mental changes are important too. We will become more independent and start to think more deeply about life and the world around us. We will learn to make our own decisions and take responsibility for our actions. This helps us grow into mature and responsible adults. Growing up can be challenging, but it is also a wonderful journey. It allows us to discover who we are and what we want to be. By accepting the changes and facing the challenges bravely, we can grow into the best version of ourselves. 1．What is growing up according to the passage? A．Just getting older.

A．Physical Changes During Growth B．Emotional Changes During Growth C．The Journey of Growing Up D．Mental Changes During Growth 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文介绍了成长过程中的身体变化、情感变化和心理变化，并指出成长是一次充满挑战但精彩的旅程。 1．第一段指出成长的定义：“Growing up is a process of change and growth.”，说明成长是变化和成长的过程。 2．第二段指出身体变化包括：“Our height and weight will increase.”，说明身高体重增加是身体变化。 3．第二段指出身体变得更“stronger and more mature”，结合语境，意为“成熟的”。 4．最后一段指出：“By accepting the changes and facing the challenges bravely, we can grow into the best version of ourselves.”，说明我们应该勇敢面对成长的挑战。 5．全文围绕成长过程展开，介绍了身体、情感和心理三方面的变化，因此“成长的旅程”最能概括全文主旨。 Passage 19 （25-26八年级下·辽宁·期中）Sophia Ren, 13, is an American-born Chinese girl.

When students on the playground get together and shout loudly, “One, two, one, two...”, do you know what game it is? It is tug-of-war. Tug-of-war is a team sport between two teams at each end of a rope (绳). It first came into China 2,400 years ago. It is very popular in China and many other countries. But in other countries, their tug-of-war match is a little different from ours. They have eight men for each team, while we may have the match between two sides with the equal number of men or women players. For example, we may have 10 men players and 10 women players on each team. Of course, they are usually tall, strong and heavy. For a tug-of-war match, we need a long thick (厚的) rope. Each team stands at one end of the rope, holding it. There’s a white line in the middle of the field. Then they try to pull the centre of the rope to each of their own sides. The winning team need to pull the other over the line. Tug-of-war was once (曾经) an Olympic sporting event. It lasted (持续) until 1920. Though it isn’t an Olympic sport now, people in many countries still like playing it very much. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 1．Which of the following is the game of “tug-of-war”?

C．It wasn’t a team sport. 5．What’s the structure (结构) of the passage? A． B． C． 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文主要介绍了拔河比赛这项运动。 1．细节理解题。根据“Tug-of-war is a team sport between two teams at each end of a rope (绳).”可知，拔河是一项团队运动，两队各在绳子的一端。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据“while we may have the match between two sides with the equal number of men or women players”并结合常识可知，拔河比赛两队人数相同，所以划线词意为“相同的”。故选C。 3．主旨大意题。根据第三段内容可知，本段详细描述了拔河的规则，所以本段主要关于“如何进行拔河”。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“Though it isn’t an Olympic sport now”可知，拔河现在不是奥运会项目。故选B。 5．篇章结构题。根据文章内容可知，第一段引出拔河这项运动，第二、三段介绍拔河的历史、规则、参赛人数等，第四段补充说明它曾是奥运会项目。所以本文是“总分总”结构。故选A。 Passage 21 （25-26八年级上·广西南宁·期中）Tony shared his experience on the website.

Passage 2 On 13 December 2025, a young girl named Wu Tongyu from Shenzhen took part in a horseback archery competition (骑射大赛). With people’s full attention, Wu rode on her horse. Then, the horse ran fast across the field. In just 12 seconds, Wu achieved something incredible—she shot five arrows (箭), and every single one hit the target (靶子). Everyone shouted with joy and surprise.   Wu’s success doesn’t come by chance; it is the result of her years of hard work. Rain or shine, she never misses training. After school, she continues to practise late into the night. Even when she gets hurt, she still says, “I love the sport.

She often achieves high grades and wins many awards. To make time for training, she always finishes homework during breaks and rushes to the training ground after school, even having her meals on the run.

Lots of us find it a little bit horrible, but we have to understand that a dentist is someone who wants to help us by making sure that we have healthy teeth and gums (牙龈). Dentists’ job is to give us advice about how to take good care of our teeth and gums. They also tell us about making healthy choices about our eating habits. This is because the choices we make about our food every day can make a big difference to our teeth. Having healthy teeth is an important part of having a healthy body, so dentists encourage us to have cleaning and check-ups for our teeth from time to time. Dentists also do things like filling teeth, removing teeth, polishing teeth and so on. Sometimes they have to take X-rays to look at our teeth and gums to find out what the problem is. There are different kinds of dentists. For example, an orthodontist (正畸医师) fits braces (牙箍) that help people to straighten teeth, and a paediatric (儿科的) dentist looks after children’s teeth. Would you like to be a dentist when you grow up? Here are some skills needed. * ▲ Dentists cannot be impatient during their work. They have to take their time. * Be good with technology. Dentists must learn how to use new tools. * Be able to explain well.

One good way that many students in my country find helpful is using a worry box. Let me explain how to make and use one. Try using a worry box1. Make a special box Use colourful things and pictures to make your worry box. Here is a picture of my worry-eating monster box! 2. Write down your worries Take some pieces of paper and write down your worries. 3. Rate (评价) your worries and store (储存) them in the box If you like, place each worry on a scale (等级) from 1 to 10. 1 means “a little worried” and 10 means “the most worried”. For example, today I put two worries into the box. I rate “losing my new bike” as a 2 and “getting bad grades in the maths exam” as a 7. 4. Talk it out Be sure to make some time every day or week to talk about your worries with your parents. Together, you can find the ways to deal with them.

Passage 9 Growing up is a journey full of pains and gains. For most teens, physical changes are the first sign of growth. Many boys get taller and their voices become deeper, while girls start to develop their bodies. These changes can make some teens feel shy or worried, but they are normal parts of growing up. Besides physical changes, teens also face mental growth. They begin to think more independently and have their own opinions on many things. Sometimes this leads to arguments with parents or teachers, but it also means they are becoming more mature. Another important gain in growth is learning to make friends. True friends can help teens get through hard times and share their joys. Many teens learn the meaning of loyalty and support from their friendships. Every teen should embrace both the pains and gains of growing up, because they all help shape a better person. 1．What is the first sign of growth for most teens? A．Mental changes. B．Physical changes.

Passage 10 As a teenager, you are to go through many changes. Your body starts to grow quickly; school becomes more challenging with harder subjects and more homework. Maybe the biggest change is in your feelings. You might feel worried, unsure, stressed and upset. The bad feelings may lead to mental (心理的) health problems. Therefore, it’s essential to pay attention to teenage development. Then, how can teenagers deal with the growing pains? Speak up. Keeping your feelings to yourself is bad for your mental and physical health: So be brave to express what’s in your mind. Self-care helps too. Try simple things like sitting quietly and focusing on your breathing for a few minutes. They can train your mind, helping you find a quiet, clear and strong space inside yourself. Build your “superhero team”. You can receive support and help from it. Building a support team isn’t about having the most fans on social media, it’s about having people you can truly trust, like your family and friends. Don’t forget the power of physical activity and hobbies. Joining a sports team, learning to cook, growing flowers and so on can be very helpful. It’s like a secret superpower that you can use when things get hard. Beyond these easy self-help steps, outside support can’t be ignored (忽视). When parents discover there is something wrong with their children, they should offer a listening ear and a safe space. Schools can help by offering counseling (咨询) services, peer support groups and mental health education. 1．What changes in teenagers are talked about in the first paragraph? a.

When he was young, he was a smart and hard-working boy. He finished his junior high school studies in two years instead of the usual three years. In 1948, new laws were introduced to separate (划分) Black people from White people. They were not allowed to marry, eat in the same restaurants, or attend the same schools. Mandela decided to fight for the rights of Black people. He studied law to help Black people when they were in trouble. He joined a group called the African National Congress. The people there all wanted to change these unfair laws. The government opposed their activities and imprisoned (关押) Nelson in 1964. However, Nelson never gave up making South Africa a fairer place. In 1990, Nelson was set free from prison, and he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1993. The next year, Nelson became the first Black president (总统) of South Africa. Nelson Mandela is considered a hero by many people because he helped achieve freedom for millions of people in South Africa.

We chose the topic "The Power of Teamwork". We planned to write the speech together, but no one wanted to take the lead. Li Ming said he was busy with his math exam, and Wang Fang said she was not good at writing. Finally, I had to start the work alone, but I felt very stressed. Then our English teacher, Miss Zhang, gave us some advice. She told us to divide the work according to our strengths. She said, "Li Ming is good at logic, so he can help organize the ideas. Wang Fang is good at speaking, so she can practice the presentation. And you are good at writing, so you can write the speech." We followed her advice. After that, things got much better. Li Ming organized the ideas clearly. Wang Fang practiced hard and her pronunciation was perfect. I wrote the speech carefully. When we had disagreements, we discussed them calmly and found the best solution. We worked closely for two weeks and finally got the first prize in the competition. This experience taught me a lot. I realized that a great team needs members to know their strengths and work together. Each member should do their part well and support each other. When we work as a team, we can achieve more than we can alone. 1．What was the topic of the English speech competition? A．The Power of Teamwork. B．My Favourite Subject. C．The Importance of English.

Whether in school, sports or future workplaces, working well with others can make a big difference. But what is teamwork? Teamwork is the ability to work together towards the same goal. It includes communicating, sharing and respecting each other’s ideas. When we work together, we can combine (结合) our advantages and skills to solve problems. For example, in a school project, each team member may have different abilities. One student may be good at writing while another student may be good at researching. By sharing tasks based on advantages of everyone, the team gets higher quality results. In this way, teamwork improves not only grades but also the learning experience. In sports, teamwork is the key to success. A soccer team needs players to pass the ball, defend (防守) and score together. If they don’t work together, the team will lose. The members learn to trust and support each other, which helps them build strong relationships on the field. In addition, teamwork can create a sense of belonging (归属感). When we work with others, we feel connected and valued. This connection can encourage us to do more. It also teaches us important life skills, like solving problems and helping others in trouble. In a word, teamwork is very important for success in many areas of life. By learning to work together, we can not only achieve our goals but also build meaningful relationships and important skills that will help us in the future.

Passage 20 （24-25七年级下·广西南宁·期中）Every spring, there are sports meets at many middle schools. When students on the playground get together and shout loudly, “One, two, one, two...”, do you know what game it is? It is tug-of-war. Tug-of-war is a team sport between two teams at each end of a rope (绳). It first came into China 2,400 years ago. It is very popular in China and many other countries. But in other countries, their tug-of-war match is a little different from ours. They have eight men for each team, while we may have the match between two sides with the equal number of men or women players. For example, we may have 10 men players and 10 women players on each team. Of course, they are usually tall, strong and heavy. For a tug-of-war match, we need a long thick (厚的) rope. Each team stands at one end of the rope, holding it. There’s a white line in the middle of the field. Then they try to pull the centre of the rope to each of their own sides. The winning team need to pull the other over the line. Tug-of-war was once (曾经) an Olympic sporting event. It lasted (持续) until 1920.
