Our bedroom, our family, our pets, and all of the things we love are at home. Is home a place where you can have fun? Being at home means different things to different people. As people grow older, home usually means responsibility (责任) because it needs care inside and out. Who takes care of all of these things in your home? How do you help out? People say that family and food are two of the best parts of being home. At home, you can tell your parents about your day, play with your pets, and get a snack from the fridge. You can rest in your room and read a book or play a game. You can ask friends over to play. Home is a place to take care of and be thankful for.

Passage 3 阅读下面短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题，每小题答案不超过7个单词 (除第1小题外)。 Diaojiaolou, also called diaolou, is a traditional house of the Miao, Buyi, Dong and Tujia people in China. You can find many of these houses beside a river or in the mountainous areas of Yunnan, Hunan and Sichuan. The traditional building is a kind of wooden house with an unusual structure. The stilts (支柱) under the house are like hanging feet, which means “hanging feet building” in Chinese. The house usually has two to three floors. The ground floor is usually used to store (存放) firewood and farming tools. Besides, animals like pigs often stay on the ground floor while people live above. People like to live in such houses for many reasons. First of all, the houses could and can protect people from dangerous animals, snakes and insects. Besides, in the mountainous areas of southern China, no one can stand the humidity (湿度) on the ground during summer. They can help save money and land as well. Most parts of diaojiaolou houses are in the air, which means they cover less space on the ground. So such houses are relatively cheap (便宜的). 1．Where can people find many diaojiaolou houses? 2．Why did the house get its name “diaojiaolou”? 3．What is the ground floor usually used to do? 4．How many good points of diaojiaolou houses are mentioned? 5．Why should we protect “diaojiaolou “? Passage 4 （24-25七年级下·江苏盐城·期中） Do you know that some people in Britain live in boats instead of houses? It’s expensive to buy a house in Britain. To save money, many people choose to live in the “floating houses”. There are over 35,000 boats on rivers in England and Wales in 2025. Many are people’s main homes. Liam Quinn, a 37 year-old musician, lives happily on a boat for five years in London. “I love waking up to the water and swans. One month, I’m in the heart of the city; the next, I stop next to cows in the countryside,” he says. A small boat costs between 50,000 pounds (about 456,000 yuan) and 100,000 pounds. That’s cheaper than buying a flat in London. In the richest places, the price of a flat is around 600,000 pounds. But boat life isn’t all fun. Quinn has to move his boat every two weeks and clean the toilet every day. Yuck! Still, Quinn loves his watery home. “You learn to fix things and make friends with others. Everyone is friendly and helpful!” he says. 回答以下问题，每题不超过6个词。 1．Why do many people in Britain live in boats? 2．Where does Quinn stop in the countryside? 3．How much is a flat in the richest places in London? 4．How often does Quinn move his boat? 5．What do you think of the life on the boat? 话题2 社区与邻里 Passage 1 （24-25七年级下·安徽芜湖·期中）In our neighborhood, we hold a monthly “helping hands” meeting where we plan acts of kindness.

At the emergency meeting (紧急会议), my dad said, “They can stay at our house!” Neighbors brought blankets and food to help.

It has become more and more popular in recent years. Ecotourism activities include visiting national parks, forests, wetlands and other natural areas. Tourists can enjoy the beauty of nature and learn about the local culture and wildlife. Unlike traditional tourism, ecotourism doesn’t cause much damage to the environment. Tourists are usually required to follow certain rules, such as not littering, not disturbing wildlife and not cutting down trees. Ecotourism also brings benefits to local communities. It creates job opportunities for local people, such as tour guides, hotel staff and drivers. It also helps promote (推广) local culture and products. Many ecotourism projects encourage tourists to buy local handicrafts (手工艺品) and try local food, which helps improve the living standards of local people. However, ecotourism also faces some challenges. Some tourists don’t follow the rules and damage the environment. In addition, some ecotourism projects are not properly managed, which may have a negative impact on the environment and local communities. To develop ecotourism sustainably (可持续地), it’s important for governments, tourism companies and tourists to work together. Governments should make relevant laws and regulations to protect the environment.Tourism companies should design responsible ecotourism projects. Tourists should respect the environment and local culture. 1．What is ecotourism? 2．What activities are included in ecotourism? 3．How does ecotourism help local communities? 4．What challenges does ecotourism face? 5．Who should work together to develop ecotourism?

They are widely used in Chinese paintings and writings. Xu Wenyi is from Wenzhou. He runs an ink brush shop with his two brothers. Xu’s grandfather set up the shop in 1900. Xu’s father learned how to make the ink brush at 13, and ran the shop when he was ready. Xu also began to learn the skill at the same age. Xu and his brothers are the third generation to run the family shop. There are about 40 steps to make an ink brush. The first step is to choose the hair. Every winter, when animal hair is the best, Xu Wenyi goes to other cities to collect the hair. Next, Xu and his workers make the hair tidy. It may take days, even a week, to get a small strand (缕) of brush hair. After that, they cut the hair in different sizes. When the hair is finally ready, they think about other parts of an ink brush. These days, the brothers try many new things. They make lanugo (胎毛) writing brushes and many new parents enjoy these brushes because the brushes keep babies’ hair. The brothers also show how to make brushes in their shop. They sometimes bring their brushes to different cultural festivals. Many culture lovers show great interest in the skill itself. “We’re happy to make good brushes for people,” said Xu. “We want to pass on the skills if people are still writing with ink brushes. And we believe we can make better brushes by improving the skill.” 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题，每题答案不超过8个词。 1．Where is Xu Wenyi from? 2．How many steps are there to make an ink brush? 3．Is the first step to choose the hair or to cut the hair? 4．Why do many new parents enjoy these brushes? 5．What can we do to help pass on ink brush skills? Passage 2 （24-25七年级下·江苏徐州·期中）Embroidery (刺绣) is often seen as “women’s work”. People think that it’s useless for a boy to learn embroidery. Therefore, Fu Jian’s parents didn’t want him to work in this industry. But Fu didn’t care. He believed he could do it well. Fu was born into an embroidery family in Yangzhou. His mother is a master craftsman of Suzhou embroidery. Fu fell in love with this beautiful art when he was four years old. In his last year of high school, Fu was clear about his life goal: to promote this traditional art. After graduating from college, Fu and his mother built a research center of Suzhou embroidery. Since then, he has created many new stitches (针法). He has also trained many workers. Fu spends a lot of time on his works. He often works late into the night. Even so, he enjoys his work. “I am doing what I love, so I never feel tired,” said the 37-year-old. Most recently, the artist “created” a piece of bronze ware (青铜器) on cloth. What gave him the idea to create this work? “Many bronzes can only be seen in museums. A work of embroidery, however, can be hung in one’s home or office. People can see it at any time,” said Fu. 注：每题答案不超过6个单词 1．What does the underlined part “this industry” refer to? 2．When did Fu Jian become interested in embroidery? 3．What was Fu Jian’s life goal? 4．Why does Fu Jian never feel tired? 5．What do you think of Fu Jian?

It comes from Suzhou, a city known for its beautiful gardens and wonderful culture. Suzhou Embroidery has a history of more than 2,000 years and is famous for its wonderful designs and bright colours. History Suzhou Embroidery began during the Three Kingdoms period (三国时期) and became very popular during the Song Dynasty (朝代). In the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was used to decorate clothes and homes. Today, it is an important part of Chinese culture. Features Suzhou Embroidery is famous for its refined threads and stitches (精细的针线活). Craftspeople use silk threads, as thin as a single hair, to make the work of art seem to be alive. The embroidery has patterns (图案) in the shape of flowers, birds, and landscapes. The double-sided embroidery is the best of its kind, because we can see patterns from both sides. Modern Use Today, Suzhou Embroidery is not only used for traditional art but also in modern fashion and home decorations. People around the world love its beauty and respect the spirit of craftspeople. 1．Where does Su Xiu come from? 2．When did Suzhou Embroidery become popular? 3．What is Suzhou Embroidery made of? 4．Why is the double-sided embroidery the best of its kind? 5．What do you think of the craftspeople who make Su Xiu? Passage 4 （24-25七年级下·江苏南京·期中）阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。(每题答案不超过8个单词，5题除外) Chinese folk art is like a bridge connecting the past and present. For thousands of years, Chinese people have created beautiful artworks to celebrate life, festivals, and hopes. Let’s explore some amazing forms of these traditions! Paper Cutting: Windows Full of Wishes Using simple tools like scissors and red paper, artists cut out delicate patterns. You might see blooming flowers, jumping fish, or the Chinese character Fu for good luck. During the Spring Festival, families stick paper cuttings on windows to welcome happiness. In rural villages, grandmothers still teach children this skill. Clay Art: Stories Shaped by Hands In Fengxiang, Shaanxi Province, artists mix clay with water and shape it into tigers, rabbits, or even heroes from Chinese stories. After drying, they paint the figures with bright colors like red, green, and gold. These clay toys are not just for play—people believe they can drive away bad luck. Shadow Puppets: Dancing Silhouettes Over 2,000 years ago, shadow puppetry began. Performers use leather puppets painted in bold colors. Behind a white cloth screen, they move the puppets’ arms and legs with sticks. At the same time, they sing old tales about kings, warriors, and dragons. Long before TV existed, this was “ancient Chinese cinema”! Chinese Knots: Threads of Blessings A single red silk thread can become a lucky knot! These knots have no beginning or end, symbolizing endless love and family unity. People hang them on doors during weddings or give them to friends as New Year gifts. Some complex knots even look like butterflies or flowers. New Year Paintings: Colors of Joy Before the Lunar New Year, families buy nianhua—bright paintings of plump babies, gods, or mountains. Artists print these paintings on woodblocks, then add colors by hand. People put them on walls to wish for health and a rich harvest. Why Keep Folk Art Alive? Today, museums and schools work together to protect these arts. Young artists mix traditional skills with modern designs. For example, some use paper cuttings to make birthday cards, while others create emoji-style clay figures. As the saying goes, “A country without old traditions is like a tree without roots.” 1．What do people use to make paper cuttings? 2．Why do Fengxiang clay toys have bright colors? 3．How old is shadow puppetry according to the text? 4．What do Chinese knots symbolize? 5．What are two ways people protect folk arts today? (不限字数) Passage 5 （24-25七年级下·江苏盐城·期中）Chinese paper-cutting or Jianzhi, is a kind of folk art. People usually use scissors or knives to cut paper. It has a long history of about 1,500 years. Let’s learn something about paper-cutting. Wonderful meanings Paper-cutting has some wonderful meanings. Some paper-cuttings mean happiness and good luck. At the Spring Festival, people paste (粘) “Fu” on doors and windows. At a wedding, people paste “Xi”. Why is it red? In China, people always love red because red is hope and life. We can see red everywhere in China. The walls of old palaces are red. Lanterns are red. Weddings are always full of red things too. Now, paper-cutting gets into many schools. Students can learn how to make paper-cutting at school. Li Jie, a middle school student, says, “It’s really wonderful to change paper into different kinds of pictures, such as flowers and animals. We enjoy it.” 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1．How long is the history of Chinese paper-cutting? 2．What do some paper-cuttings mean? 3．Where do people usually paste paper-cuttings? 4．Why do Chinese people love red so much? 5．What do you think of Chinese paper-cutting?

They are paintings made of hot, liquid (液体) brown sugar. These paintings are called sugar paintings. They are not only beautiful to look at but also delicious to eat. With their bright colours and fun shapes, they are very popular, especially (尤其是) with kids. A sugar painting is a traditional Chinese art with a history of over 500 years. It starts during the Ming dynasty and becomes even more popular in the Qing dynasty. Some people believe that this art begins in Sichuan province and spreads across China because people love it so much. At first, people use sugar to make small animal shapes for some special activities. Over time, this sugar art puts skills from Chinese shadow puppet and paper-cutting together to become the sugar painting today. There are two main types of sugar paintings: flat paintings and solid sculptures. Flat paintings are easier to make, while solid sculptures need more skills. To make a sugar painting, artists use brown or white sugar, a pot, a bronze spoon, a marble slab, a spatula and a wooden stick. First, they melt (融化) the sugar in a pot until it becomes liquid. Then, they use the spoon to draw thin lines with the liquid sugar on the marble. The artist works quickly because the sugar will become hard as it cools. In just a few minutes, they can create a beautiful picture of a bird, fish, dragon, or other shapes. Once the painting is done, the artist uses the spatula to lift it off the marble, adds a wooden stick for holding, and gives it to the buyer. Isn’t this a wonderful traditional art? If you visit China, don’t forget to try a sugar painting! 1．What makes sugar paintings popular? 2．When do people start to make a sugar painting? 3．What do people use sugar to make at first? 4．How many things do artists need to make a sugar painting? 5．Who is this article for? $ 专题11阅读表达常考话题 话题 1 家与居住 Passage 1 1.

After drying, they paint the figures with bright colors like red, green, and gold. These clay toys are not just for play—people believe they can drive away bad luck. Shadow Puppets: Dancing Silhouettes Over 2,000 years ago, shadow puppetry began. Performers use leather puppets painted in bold colors. Behind a white cloth screen, they move the puppets’ arms and legs with sticks. At the same time, they sing old tales about kings, warriors, and dragons. Long before TV existed, this was “ancient Chinese cinema”! Chinese Knots: Threads of Blessings A single red silk thread can become a lucky knot! These knots have no beginning or end, symbolizing endless love and family unity. People hang them on doors during weddings or give them to friends as New Year gifts.

Artists print these paintings on woodblocks, then add colors by hand. People put them on walls to wish for health and a rich harvest. Why Keep Folk Art Alive?

They are paintings made of hot, liquid (液体) brown sugar. These paintings are called sugar paintings. They are not only beautiful to look at but also delicious to eat. With their bright colours and fun shapes, they are very popular, especially (尤其是) with kids. A sugar painting is a traditional Chinese art with a history of over 500 years. It starts during the Ming dynasty and becomes even more popular in the Qing dynasty. Some people believe that this art begins in Sichuan province and spreads across China because people love it so much. At first, people use sugar to make small animal shapes for some special activities. Over time, this sugar art puts skills from Chinese shadow puppet and paper-cutting together to become the sugar painting today. There are two main types of sugar paintings: flat paintings and solid sculptures. Flat paintings are easier to make, while solid sculptures need more skills. To make a sugar painting, artists use brown or white sugar, a pot, a bronze spoon, a marble slab, a spatula and a wooden stick. First, they melt (融化) the sugar in a pot until it becomes liquid. Then, they use the spoon to draw thin lines with the liquid sugar on the marble. The artist works quickly because the sugar will become hard as it cools. In just a few minutes, they can create a beautiful picture of a bird, fish, dragon, or other shapes. Once the painting is done, the artist uses the spatula to lift it off the marble, adds a wooden stick for holding, and gives it to the buyer. Isn’t this a wonderful traditional art?
