Today, let's learn something about lakes. Tai Lake It is a freshwater lake in Jiangsu. There is a Fishing Festival every autumn (usually in September or October). Fishing lovers go to Tai Lake to fish. It is really a good place for fishing. Qiandao Lake It is a clear freshwater lake with beautiful hills and green forests in Hangzhou. There are many kinds of fish in the lake, and some of them are so special that you won't find them in other places in China. Yangcheng Lake It is between Tai Lake and the Changjiang River in Jiangsu. It is a freshwater lake and is famous for one thing: the Chinese mitten crab, a kind of Chinese crabs. Jinniu Lake It is a man­made lake in Nanjing, Jiangsu. It is near the Changjiang River. People made it many years ago. In summer, the wind is cool. It is a good and popular place to go fishing in summer.

( )57.If you are a fishing lover, which lake can you go to for the Fishing Festival? A．Tai Lake. B．Qiandao Lake. C．Yangcheng Lake. D．Jinniu Lake. ( )58.Where is the text probably from? A．A storybook. B．A science magazine. C．A geography book. D．A novel. B Norway(挪威) is close to the North Pole(北极). It is very cold there in winter. There is only a little sunshine every day. To most people in Norway, skiing is the best way to have fun in winter. Almost everyone likes skiing. Children learn to ski soon after they learn to walk. Long long ago in Norway, there were no buses or trains. People had to find a way to walk over the deep snow. Skis were the right answer! Today Norwegians ski just for fun. Some of Norway's young men and women are among the best skiers in the world. They are outstanding and they have won many prizes. Although they love winter, the people of Norway are happy when summer comes. They enjoy outdoor activities at any time of the year. In summer, they swim and sunbathe. Some people go hiking and mountain climbing. The short summer months are busy ones for Norwegian farmers, too. In summer in the north part of Norway, the sun doesn't set at all for many days. That is why Norway is often called the “Land of the Midnight Sun”． ( )59.What is the best way to have fun in winter in Norway? A．Skiing. B．Sunbathing. C．Swimming. D．Hiking. ( )60.What does the underlined word “outstanding” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Poor. B．Excellent. C．Healthy. D．Young. ( )61.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A．Summer months are long in Norway. B．Norwegian farmers are free in summer. C．Norwegians learn to ski when they are very young. D．Norwegians enjoy outdoor activities only in winter. C Curiosity is a powerful force that drives people to achieve great things. It is the desire(愿望) to know more, to explore, and to understand the world around us. Throughout history, curious people have made amazing discoveries. For example, Galileo Galilei was curious about the stars and the planets. He used a telescope to observe(观察) the sky and made many important discoveries about the solar system. His curiosity changed the way people thought about the universe. Curiosity can also lead to personal growth. When we are curious, we may learn new skills and gain new knowledge. We may try new hobbies, read different kinds of books, or meet new people. All these experiences can open up our eyes and make us better persons. In addition, curiosity can improve our relationships. When we are curious about others, we show that we care about them. We ask questions, listen to their stories, and try to understand their opinions. This can help us build stronger connections with people. But we need to keep curiosity in balance. We shouldn't be too curious about things that don't relate to(相关) us, like other people's personal lives. Also, we should use curiosity for good things, not to hurt anyone or cause trouble. ( )62.What is curiosity according to the text? A．A strong desire to know more. B．A force that makes people lazy. C．A feeling of being bored. D．A way to avoid learning. ( )63.How can curiosity lead to personal growth? A．By changing the way we think. B．By making us neet new people every day. C．By making us popular with other people. D．By helping us learn new skills and gain new knowledge. ( )64.Which of the following is NOT a way to improve our relationships with others? A．Keep sharing personal lives. B．Ask them questions. C．Understand their opinions. D．Listen to their stories. ( )65.What should we pay attention to when we have curiosity? A．Use curiosity in a good way. B．Be curious about things we like. C．Use curiosity for everything. D．Only be curious about our own lives. D ①Spring is the most exciting season of the year! Besides the warm weather, there are many cool things to learn about this time of year. ②During spring, the weather can be very changeable(变化无常的). This happens because warm air from the south and cold air from the north are fighting, making it impossible to know the exact weather. ③Many baby animals are born in spring. Deer, squirrels(松鼠), foxes, and even whales welcome their little ones during this season. The warm sunshine and enough food make it the perfect time for young animals to grow strong. ④Spring doesn't start at the same time everywhere. In the Northern Hemisphere(半球), spring begins in March. But in the Southern Hemisphere, like Australia, spring starts in September. So, while people in one part of the world enjoy spring flowers, others might be jumping into autumn leaves! ⑤This season shows that nature and life always keep changing, bringing new surprises every year! ( )66.Why are many baby animals born in spring? A．Because they can sleep more at night. B．Because they will have fewer enemies. C．Because it is warm and there is plenty of food. D．Because they can spend more time with their parents. ( )67.When it is autumn in the Northern Hemisphere, which season are Australians experiencing? A．Spring. B．Summer. C．Autumn. D．Winter. ( )68.What is the structure of the text? A． B． C． D． E The Yellow River, known as China's “Mother River”， is over 5，400 kilometres starting from the Qinghai­Tibet Plateau to the Bohai Sea. It gets its name from the yellow mud(泥土) it carries from the Loess Plateau(黄土高原). This rich mud is perfect for farming. For many years, Chinese farmers grew crops like rice and wheat(小麦) along its banks. Early Chinese emperors even built their capitals near the river. That's why it's called the “cradle of Chinese civilisation(中华文明的摇篮)”． But the Yellow River is also called “China's Big Problem”. Why? Its floods once destroyed villages and crops. That was the biggest challenge for ancient people. To control the river, ancient people built walls along its sides. Later, modern dams(大坝) like the Xiaolangdi Dam helped stop floods. Today, the river faces new challenges: pollution and water shortage(短缺). Millions of people need its water to drink and farm. Taking good care of this river is key to China's future. ( )69.Where does the Yellow River start? A．The Bohai Sea. B．The Loess Plateau. C．The Qinghai­Tibet Plateau. D．The Qinghai Lake. ( )70.Why is the Yellow River called the “cradle of Chinese civilisation”？ A．Because it helped build factories. B．Because ancient Chinese lived on it. C．Because it provides water for crops. D．Because people can go swimming in it. ( )71.Which is TRUE about the Xiaolangdi Dam? A．People in modern times built it to help stop floods. B．Ancient people built it to grow crops. C．It once destroyed villages and crops. D．It is called “China's Big Problem”． ( )72.What's the best title for the text? A．The Longest River in China B．The Yellow River: China's Mother River and Its Challenges C．How Dams Stopped Floods in Ancient China D．The Meaning of Water in Chinese Farming 第二节　阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。 F Every time I go whitewater rafting(漂流), I think of an explorer named John Wesley Powell. He was a great person in the American West. Powell was very brave. He never cared about getting in a boat and rowing down a river he didn't know. On the way, he studied geology, plants and wild animals, and taught himself a lot about nature. In 1860, Powell joined the army in the Civil War. He was injured and lost his right arm. When the wound was cured, he went back into war! In 1865, he retired as a major(上校)． Powell worked as a geology teacher, but he never went to college. During this time, he began to develop a risky plan. He wanted to explore the Grand Canyon by rafting the Colorado River. No one had done such a thing before. In May of 1869, Powell set out with ten men on the Green River in Wyoming for a long trip. Everyone thought they would be in great danger. No wonder! They were facing the unknown with every turn of the river. No one knew what dangers were ahead. But Powell refused to give up. He had courage and carefulness. He did what he set out to do. He saw one of the most surprising natural landforms(地貌) on Earth from the river's side.

Last summer, she planned to explore a hidden forest to find rare wild flowers. It was her biggest goal for that year. However, she faced a great difficulty. Heavy rain made the path hard to walk on. She almost gave up, but she stuck to her plan by using branches as walking sticks to keep balance. In the end, her effort paid off. She found the beautiful flowers and took photos to record them. Lila is truly admirable. Her story teaches me that as long as we keep trying, we can achieve our goals, even in the face of difficulties. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
