A
Sixteen-year-old Ava, once a quiet and proud school magazine editor (编辑) lost her confidence after losing her position. To find herself again, she went hiking in the mountains. This wasn’t just a hike to clear her mind. Ava was on a journey to rediscover herself. Though the road was difficult, each step filled her spirit with new energy.
While walking through a hard part of the path, she saw something strange—a young eagle lying on the ground, hurt and unable to fly. It looked weak and helpless after last night’s storm. Ava felt sad and wanted to help it.
Right away, she made a camp near the bird and gave it water and food. The eagle watched her carefully, backing away at first. But Ava stayed, speaking softly with endless patience.
Day after day, she returned to help the eagle. She built it a small home, gently cleaned its wounded wing, and made sure it had enough food. Sometimes Ava wondered whether she was making a difference. Yet, as the eagle grew stronger, so did she.
Weeks later, Ava found the eagle standing tall on a rock, spreading its wings wide to face the rising sun. It got well completely. A deep sense of peace filled Ava’s heart—something she hadn’t felt in a long time. She saved the bird, but by doing so, she had found her own hidden strength.
Ava watched the bird flying with tears in her eyes—joy and sadness mixed together. The bird was free, and in that moment, she felt free too. Sometimes, helping others is the only way to discover the courage we’ve hidden inside.
16. Why did Ava go to the mountains?
A. She wanted to help the eagle. B. She went to rediscover herself.
C. She enjoyed hiking on her own. D. She planned camping near the bird.
17. How did Ava help the eagle?
A. She kept it in a cage. B. She trained the bird to fly.
C. She gave it food and water. D. She took it home for treatment.
18. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The Brave Young Eagle B. A Difficult Mountain Climb
C. Ava’s School Magazine Job D. The Strength from Helping Others
B
Are you allowed to climb trees or go camping by the river? Most of the students reply with “No”. It’s not surprising at all. Although research shows how good it is for children to play outside, they still spend more time staying indoors. In fact, outdoor play has a positive (积极的) influence on children’s development.
Over the last fifteen years, schools have started to realize the importance of outdoor time. It leads to the development of many programmes that take learning outside the classroom. One of these programmes is Forest School which has increased in popularity over recent years.
Forest School is an outdoor learning programme and pays much attention to outdoor play in wooded spaces. In the early 1990s, a group of English educators went on a trip to Denmark. They noticed that open-air living was helpful for students. Upon their return from Denmark, they developed their first Forest School. Today the Forest School Association (协会) has more than 1,500members.
How does outdoor play stimulate learning? In Forest School, children are provided with chances to explore the natural environment and experience risks and challenges. Recent research shows that some changes happen to children. They are able to develop skills they have leamed at school in daily life. They work more closely with their classmates. They are more physically active. And they know how to move safely in the wild.
The World Health Organization has advised that children should have more chances to play in nature to grow up healthily. Forest School will help them fall in love with the great outdoors. It is also helpful for them to develop skills and creative thinking. All make preparations for later life!
19. From Paragraph 3, we know ________.
A. what Forest School is and how it was developed
B. what educators thought of open-air living
C. the importance of outdoor time
D. the popularity of open-air learning
20. What does the underlined word “stimulate” mean?
A. Prove that something is true. B. Make something more active
C. Stop something from increasing D. Develop something in an unusual way. .
21. What changes do children make according to recent research?
①They develop a better relationship with others.
②They can keep themselves safe in the wild.
③They feel comfortable when staying indoors.
④They put knowledge they have gained into use in daily life.
A. ①③ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
C
For the first time, primary and secondary schools in Jiangsu gave students a three-day spring break in early April. Together with the Qingming Festival, children enjoyed a six-day holiday. The policy aims to help students relax, enjoy nature, and reduce study stress.
Many parents welcomed the break. “Spring is the best time for children to go outside and feel the season,” one father said. During the holiday, zoos and sports centers opened for free. Schools gave no written homework. A company in Kunshan even gave employees three paid days off so they could stay with their children. Tourism data showed that searches for family trips rose sharply online. One mother shared that her son finally had time to fly kites and paint flowers in the park.
However, some parents felt troubled. Both parents have to work, but children stay at home. “We can only ask grandparents for help or send them to daycare centers,” a working mother of two said. She worried that leaving children alone at home could be unsafe. Other parents worried that the extra breaks would break the rhythm of learning. They thought their kids should go to school as usual. If there were too many breaks, students may lose the habit of studying.
To solve these problems, cities like Nanjing asked schools to provide free care services. Parents could choose how many days of care they needed. Community centers offered fun activities such as calligraphy, chess, and traditional crafts. In Yangzhou, 44 community centers stayed open for students, with seven offering full-day services. The companies paid leave policy (政策) received wide praise. Following this example, all 13 cities in Jiangsu encouraged companies to offer flexible (灵活的) leave for parents of school-age children.
In short, the spring break gives students a valuable chance to rest and explore. But it also creates new challenges for working families and schools. Finding a balance between relaxation and childcare still needs more thought and better support from both the government and employers.
22. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A. The spring break in Jiangsu was three days long, including the weekend.
B. All parents supported the break because schools gave no homework.
C. Some companies offered paid leave so parents could stay with their children.
D. 44 community centers offered full -day services in Yangzhou.
23. In paragraph 3, the underlined word “rhythm” most likely means ________.
A. the regular (有规律的) beat in a piece of music
B. the regular pattern (模式) of events
C. a repeated pattern of sounds
D. the repetition in a poem
24. Based on the article, which of the following statements best shows the writer’s opinions?
A. Children have more time to fly kites and play, but parents may struggle to find safe care for them during work hours.
B. Zoos and sports centers open for free, so families can save money and have fun together.
C. Frequent breaks may cause students to lose their study habits, which could hurt their exam scores.
D. Some companies give paid leave to parents, which makes the break perfect for every family.
25. Which of the following is the best title for this article?
A. How to Enjoy a Six‑Day Holiday in Jiangsu
B. Free School Care, and Community Activities
C. Jiangsu’s First Spring Break Brings Joy and Worry
D. Why Working Parents Welcome the School Holiday
D
Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? A fascinating new study from the University of California might have some answers. In a fascinating new study, researchers discovered that cats use 276 different facial expressions to show their feelings—far more than we have ever imagined!
①The scientists visited a local cat cafe in Los Angeles for over several months to observe (观察) 53 cats. They recorded 194 minutes of videos, carefully watching how the cats communicate with each other. Using a special system called FACS (Facial Action Coding System), which is normally used to study human expressions, they identified 26 unique facial movements in cats. These movements—like licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening their pupils (the black part of their eyes)—combine in different ways to create all those expressions. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.
②Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers (胡须) forward while closing its eyes slowly—almost like a smile!” However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team.
③Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after their cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app that scans a cat’s face to explain its moods—like a “cat translator”.
Next time your cat stares at you, pay attention—it might be “talking” with its face!
26. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By giving numbers. B. By telling a story.
C. By showing some facts. D. By asking a question.
27. Which of the following uses the most facial movements?
A. Cats. B. Humans. C. Dogs. D. Tigers.
28. Match the title with each part.
a. Why Does This Matter?
b. Friendly Faces or Angry Faces?
c. How Did They Study Cats?
d. Future Research on Cat Communication.
A. ①a ②b ③d B. ①b ②c ③a
C. ①c ②b ③d D. ①d ②b ③c
29. What would be the best structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
30. What might the scientists do next?
A. Use an app to study cats’ expressions.
B. Build an animal shelter to look after cats.
C. Keep on studying to know more about cats.
D. Find out why the cats try to communicate with each other.

After meeting the Old Gentleman, the children’s days at the railway station became full of life.
One afternoon, when they were down at the station, they saw a truck standing on the roadside. It was full of something in sacks (麻布袋). The sacks were marked with the word “Guano”.
“I have seen them!” Peter said. “They are the same sacks on the barge (驳船) that were upset (侧翻) by the river.”
“Yes,” said Bobbie. “And I do believe this. Look at the name—‘Guano’. That’s what was on the barge.”
“So the sacks must go to Oswestry,” said Phyllis. “That’s where the barge was going.”
Just then, they saw the Old Gentleman coming along the platform.
“Look, it’s guano,” Peter went up. “It came off a barge that upset.”
The Old Gentleman looked at the truck seriously.
“Children,” then he said, “I need your help. I want you to go to the river and see if there is any more guano there. Can I trust you?”
“Yes,” said Peter. “Come on.”
They ran all the way to the river. There, they saw the barge, with some sacks on it, and the unlucky bargeman was sitting on the bank, sadly.
“You need help?” Peter asked him.
“Yes. But it’s hard work.”
“We don’t mind hard work,” said Bobbie.
The three children got on the barge and began to lift the sacks in the hot July sun. An hour later, they had got all the sacks off the barge and onto the bank.
They went back to the station and told the Old Gentleman what they had done.
“Thank you,” he said. “And now I need your help again. I want you to go with the truck to Oswestry, will you?”
“Yes,” said Phyllis. “But why?”
“Because I believe you can take charge of (负责) it. I want you to see that it gets there safely.”
They all smiled and got into the truck.

【14题详解】
句意:有些问题靠它们自己就能解决,有些需要你付出一些努力才能解决,还有一些即使你尽了最大努力也无法解决。
根据上文骆驼自己坐下的比喻,以及主语“Some problems”,表示问题“它们自己”解决,应用反身代词themselves“它们自己”。myself“我自己”、yourselves“你们自己”、itself“它自己”与主语problems的人称和数不符。
【15题详解】
句意:在适当的时候,这些问题本身就会结束。
根据上文把问题交给时间,以及“come to an end”,可知在“适当的”时候,right“适当的,正确的”符合。free“自由的”、spare“空闲的”、wrong“错误的”与时机不符。

A
Sixteen-year-old Ava, once a quiet and proud school magazine editor (编辑) lost her confidence after losing her position. To find herself again, she went hiking in the mountains. This wasn’t just a hike to clear her mind. Ava was on a journey to rediscover herself. Though the road was difficult, each step filled her spirit with new energy.
While walking through a hard part of the path, she saw something strange—a young eagle lying on the ground, hurt and unable to fly. It looked weak and helpless after last night’s storm. Ava felt sad and wanted to help it.
Right away, she made a camp near the bird and gave it water and food. The eagle watched her carefully, backing away at first. But Ava stayed, speaking softly with endless patience.
Day after day, she returned to help the eagle. She built it a small home, gently cleaned its wounded wing, and made sure it had enough food. Sometimes Ava wondered whether she was making a difference. Yet, as the eagle grew stronger, so did she.
Weeks later, Ava found the eagle standing tall on a rock, spreading its wings wide to face the rising sun. It got well completely. A deep sense of peace filled Ava’s heart—something she hadn’t felt in a long time. She saved the bird, but by doing so, she had found her own hidden strength.
Ava watched the bird flying with tears in her eyes—joy and sadness mixed together. The bird was free, and in that moment, she felt free too. Sometimes, helping others is the only way to discover the courage we’ve hidden inside.

Are you allowed to climb trees or go camping by the river? Most of the students reply with “No”. It’s not surprising at all. Although research shows how good it is for children to play outside, they still spend more time staying indoors. In fact, outdoor play has a positive (积极的) influence on children’s development.
Over the last fifteen years, schools have started to realize the importance of outdoor time. It leads to the development of many programmes that take learning outside the classroom. One of these programmes is Forest School which has increased in popularity over recent years.
Forest School is an outdoor learning programme and pays much attention to outdoor play in wooded spaces. In the early 1990s, a group of English educators went on a trip to Denmark. They noticed that open-air living was helpful for students. Upon their return from Denmark, they developed their first Forest School. Today the Forest School Association (协会) has more than 1,500members.
How does outdoor play stimulate learning? In Forest School, children are provided with chances to explore the natural environment and experience risks and challenges. Recent research shows that some changes happen to children. They are able to develop skills they have leamed at school in daily life. They work more closely with their classmates. They are more physically active. And they know how to move safely in the wild.
The World Health Organization has advised that children should have more chances to play in nature to grow up healthily. Forest School will help them fall in love with the great outdoors. It is also helpful for them to develop skills and creative thinking. All make preparations for later life!

B. what educators thought of open-air living
C. the importance of outdoor time
D. the popularity of open-air learning

For the first time, primary and secondary schools in Jiangsu gave students a three-day spring break in early April. Together with the Qingming Festival, children enjoyed a six-day holiday. The policy aims to help students relax, enjoy nature, and reduce study stress.
Many parents welcomed the break. “Spring is the best time for children to go outside and feel the season,” one father said. During the holiday, zoos and sports centers opened for free. Schools gave no written homework. A company in Kunshan even gave employees three paid days off so they could stay with their children. Tourism data showed that searches for family trips rose sharply online. One mother shared that her son finally had time to fly kites and paint flowers in the park.
However, some parents felt troubled. Both parents have to work, but children stay at home. “We can only ask grandparents for help or send them to daycare centers,” a working mother of two said. She worried that leaving children alone at home could be unsafe. Other parents worried that the extra breaks would break the rhythm of learning. They thought their kids should go to school as usual. If there were too many breaks, students may lose the habit of studying.
To solve these problems, cities like Nanjing asked schools to provide free care services. Parents could choose how many days of care they needed. Community centers offered fun activities such as calligraphy, chess, and traditional crafts. In Yangzhou, 44 community centers stayed open for students, with seven offering full-day services. The companies paid leave policy (政策) received wide praise. Following this example, all 13 cities in Jiangsu encouraged companies to offer flexible (灵活的) leave for parents of school-age children.
In short, the spring break gives students a valuable chance to rest and explore. But it also creates new challenges for working families and schools. Finding a balance between relaxation and childcare still needs more thought and better support from both the government and employers.
22. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A. The spring break in Jiangsu was three days long, including the weekend.
B. All parents supported the break because schools gave no homework.
C. Some companies offered paid leave so parents could stay with their children.
D. 44 community centers offered full -day services in Yangzhou.
23. In paragraph 3, the underlined word “rhythm” most likely means ________.
A. the regular (有规律的) beat in a piece of music
B. the regular pattern (模式) of events
C. a repeated pattern of sounds
D. the repetition in a poem
24. Based on the article, which of the following statements best shows the writer’s opinions?
A. Children have more time to fly kites and play, but parents may struggle to find safe care for them during work hours.
B. Zoos and sports centers open for free, so families can save money and have fun together.
C. Frequent breaks may cause students to lose their study habits, which could hurt their exam scores.
D. Some companies give paid leave to parents, which makes the break perfect for every family.
25. Which of the following is the best title for this article?

Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? A fascinating new study from the University of California might have some answers. In a fascinating new study, researchers discovered that cats use 276 different facial expressions to show their feelings—far more than we have ever imagined!
①The scientists visited a local cat cafe in Los Angeles for over several months to observe (观察) 53 cats. They recorded 194 minutes of videos, carefully watching how the cats communicate with each other. Using a special system called FACS (Facial Action Coding System), which is normally used to study human expressions, they identified 26 unique facial movements in cats. These movements—like licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening their pupils (the black part of their eyes)—combine in different ways to create all those expressions. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.
②Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers (胡须) forward while closing its eyes slowly—almost like a smile!” However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team.
③Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after their cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app that scans a cat’s face to explain its moods—like a “cat translator”.
Next time your cat stares at you, pay attention—it might be “talking” with its face!
26. How does the writer start the passage?
A. By giving numbers. B. By telling a story.
C. By showing some facts. D. By asking a question.
27. Which of the following uses the most facial movements?
A. Cats. B. Humans. C. Dogs. D. Tigers.
28. Match the title with each part.
a. Why Does This Matter?
b. Friendly Faces or Angry Faces?
c. How Did They Study Cats?
d. Future Research on Cat Communication.
A. ①a ②b ③d B. ①b ②c ③a
C. ①c ②b ③d D. ①d ②b ③c
29. What would be the best structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
30. What might the scientists do next?
A. Use an app to study cats’ expressions.
B. Build an animal shelter to look after cats.
C. Keep on studying to know more about cats.
D. Find out why the cats try to communicate with each other.
【答案】26. D 27. B 28. C 29. B 30. C

One afternoon, when they were down at the station, they saw a truck standing on the roadside. It was full of something in sacks (麻布袋). The sacks were marked with the word “Guano”.
“I have seen them!” Peter said. “They are the same sacks on the barge (驳船) that were upset (侧翻) by the river.”
“Yes,” said Bobbie. “And I do believe this. Look at the name—‘Guano’. That’s what was on the barge.”
“So the sacks must go to Oswestry,” said Phyllis. “That’s where the barge was going.”
Just then, they saw the Old Gentleman coming along the platform.
“Look, it’s guano,” Peter went up. “It came off a barge that upset.”
The Old Gentleman looked at the truck seriously.
“Children,” then he said, “I need your help. I want you to go to the river and see if there is any more guano there. Can I trust you?”
“Yes,” said Peter. “Come on.”
They ran all the way to the river. There, they saw the barge, with some sacks on it, and the unlucky bargeman was sitting on the bank, sadly.
“You need help?” Peter asked him.
“Yes. But it’s hard work.”
“We don’t mind hard work,” said Bobbie.
The three children got on the barge and began to lift the sacks in the hot July sun. An hour later, they had got all the sacks off the barge and onto the bank.
They went back to the station and told the Old Gentleman what they had done.
“Thank you,” he said. “And now I need your help again. I want you to go with the truck to Oswestry, will you?”

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者讲述了自己扬州两日游的经历。
【56题详解】
句意:我的扬州之旅在四月,我担心拥挤。根据“I am not a fan of visiting tourist attractions on holidays, because there are always too many people around.”和首字母提示可知,此处考查固定短语worry about,意为“担心”,此处叙述的是过去的事情,句子是一般过去时,动词要用过去式,worry的过去式是worried。
【57题详解】
句意:幸运的是,我两天的扬州之旅充满了欢乐。根据“my two-day trip to Yangzhou was full of joy”和首字母提示,可知此处是Luckily,意为“幸运地”,是副词修饰整个句子,作状语,句首单词的首字母要大写。
【58题详解】
句意:春天为这座城市涂上了丰富的色彩,各种各样的花朵到处盛开,就像美丽的图画。根据“different kinds of flowers blooming everywhere”和首字母提示,此处是colors,意为“颜色”,是名词color的复数形式,根据空前的“rich”,可知此处不止一种颜色,用其复数形式。
【59题详解】
句意:这座公园两旁是柳树、宝塔和丰富的历史,足以让游客忙碌一整天。根据“The park, lined with willow trees, pagodas and loads of history”和首字母提示可知,此处busy,意为“忙碌的”。符合“公园内容丰富,游客一整天都有事可做”的语境。
【60题详解】
句意:人们说湖的某些地方非常窄,你能听到对岸的人说话,正是这种纤细的形状让它得名“瘦西湖”。后文提到“能听到对岸的说话声”和“slim shape”,说明湖的部分区域很窄,结合首字母提示,此处填narrow,意为“狭窄的”。
【61题详解】
句意:五亭桥大约在500年前建在湖上,是扬州的著名象征。桥是建在湖面上方的,结合首字母提示,此处是over,意为“在……上方”,符合桥与湖的位置关系。
【62题详解】
句意:站在桥上,我们享受美丽的湖景和清新的空气。结合语境,站在桥上的动作是“享受”湖景和空气,全文为过去时态,因此用enjoy的过去式enjoyed,意为“享受”。
【63题详解】
句意:尽管它有一些西式设计,但主要展现了晚清的传统美。前后句是让步关系,“有西式设计”和“展现传统美”形成转折,根据首字母提示,此处是Although引导的让步状语从句,意为“虽然、尽管”,位于句首,首字母大写。
【64题详解】
句意:最好跟随/找一位导游,这样我们就能了解它的历史,更好地欣赏它的美。根据空后的“guide”可知,此处用follow a guide,意为“跟着导游”或find a guide,意为“找一位导游”均可,it is/was better to do sth.是固定句型,其中it是形式主语,不定式是真正主语,“to+动词原形”构成动词不定式。
【65题详解】
那一刻,我暗自想:“我多么希望能住在这么可爱的城市里啊!”此处考查固定搭配think to oneself,意为“心里想、暗自思忖”,全文为过去时态,因此用think的过去式thought。

【答案】
My View on Facing and Getting Over Difficulty
Dear Alice,
I am so happy to talk with you about my view on facing and getting over difficulty.
In my opinion, facing difficulties bravely is the first step. When I was learning math, I often got stuck on complex problems. Instead of giving up, I would break them down into smaller parts. I also asked my teacher and classmates for help. Through these efforts, I gradually overcame my math difficulties.
I believe everyone can face difficulties with a positive attitude. Let’s encourage each other to be stronger!
Yours,
Li Hua
