This week, let’s learn about ideograms, pictograms and logograms. IDEOGRAMS They are symbols of ideas or thoughts. For example, symbols of numbers and maths are ideograms. “1, 2, 3” stand for “one, two, three” or any other language system of counting. “+” always means “addition”, and “=” always means “equal”, no matter what language you use!                                                                                   PICTOGRAMS They are pictures. They show the words they stand for. People use them to communicate, too. A new system of pictograms is still developing today. Can you guess what it is? That’s right —emoji! Do you know the pictograms below?   LOGOGRAMS They are the symbols that stand for words or parts of words. Logograms may look like what the words mean, but many of them do not. Chinese characters are also logograms. Some of them have changed over time from pictograms, as shown here.   11．What is the passage mainly about? A．Maths. B．Rules. C．Pictures. D．Languages. 12．Which of the following is a pictogram? A． B． C． D． 13．How does the programme help readers understand better? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling stories. C．By giving examples. D．By showing reasons. B James Watson, who passed away on November 6, 2025, was a world-famous scientist known as the “Father of DNA”. He was born in 1928. His most famous achievement was discovering the double-helix structure (结构) of DNA with Francis Crick in 1953. This discovery was a huge step in the field of genetics. It was like unlocking the secret code of life, as DNA includes all the genetic information that makes each living thing different. People have known about DNA since 1869. But for a long time, nobody knew its structure. To find out, Watson worked with Francis Crick in the UK. They studied X-ray pictures of DNA taken by another scientist, Rosalind Franklin. This led them to find out that DNA has two strands (缕,股). These strands twist around each other into a double helix. Watson and Crick won the Nobel Prize in 1962. Watson’s work opened up new ways of understanding how genes are passed on from parents to children and how they affect our health and characteristics. After the discovery, he continued to work in genetics, making more contributions to the field. He also wrote many books to share his knowledge and ideas with the public. Later in life, Watson also related genes with race (种族), saying that black people are less intelligent than white people. He lost his job for this in 2007. Although Watson had some controversial (有争议的) views later, his scientific achievements cannot be ignored (忽略). His discovery changed the way we think about life and laid the base for modern genetic research. His story shows us the power of curiosity and hard work at scientific knowledge. 14．Why did James Watson win the Nobel Prize? A．He used X-rays to study DNA． B．He successfully took pictures of DNA． C．He discovered the structure of DNA． D．He found out that there is DNA． 15．What might DNA look like? A．B． C．D． 16．What does the underlined word “unlocking” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．keeping a secret B．finding the key C．making a lock D．hiding something important 17．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Genes have nothing to do with race. B．Watson’s scientific achievements are highly valuable. C．Watson’s controversial views had little effect on his career. D．Watson’s story shows that luck is the key to scientific success. C Kia ora! Are you a culture lover? If yes, take your bag and visit New Zealand! There you can discover Maori culture! “Kia ora!” is a way to greet Maori. It doesn’t just mean “hello”—it also means life and health. It can be used to say “thank you” or “cheers” too. When Maori meet important guests, instead of handshakes, they do a hongi —touching their noses two or three times. Maori are famous for kapa haka, which is a powerful combination (组合) of songs, dances and chanting. It is performed by Maori during special festivals. Pukana is an important facial (脸部的) expression of these dances. For Maori, pukana means opening their eyes and mouths wide. Though the expression may seem scaring, it is not a sign of anger but may express strong and deep-felt feelings. Besides, Maori have a form of body art, known as tattoos (纹身) . And the facial tattoos have special meanings because Maori believe the head is the most important part of the body. For example, men receive mataora on their faces as a symbol of high positions in society. Moko kauae are received by women on their lips and chins. A moko shows a woman’s position and abilities in her community. It is a tradition passed down over many years from the ancient. Today, Maori traditions are still celebrated all over New Zealand. In the country, you will always feel the alive Maori culture, which influences the life of the whole nation. 18．What do Maori do to greet each other? A．They say kia ora. B．They shake heads. C．They talk about hongi. D．They cheer loudly. 19．Which of the following pictures shows pukana? A． B． C． D． 20．To Maori, what special meanings do facial tattoos tell? A．How old the persons are. B．When the persons were born. C．Where the persons come from. D．How important the persons are. 21．What’s the main purpose of the passage? A．To give advice on meeting Maori. B．To introduce the alive Maori culture. C．To tell the influence of Maori dances. D．To describe the famous Maori festivals. D I had truly believed I would get the part of Shirley. My long, dark hair was much more similar to the character described in the novel than Jodie’s traditional good looks. And this was a musical play—Shirley had to sing and that was another reason I should have got the part. Rehearsals(排练) went on for eight weeks over the hottest part of the summer. At first, I wanted Jodie to fail, but as time went by I had to agree that she certainly had a better memory than I did, which made me realize that looks aren’t everything, even in the theatre. That summer was more enjoyable than I’d expected it to be. Our director, Matthew, made the rehearsals fun, telling us stories about his time as an actor. All the actors got on well-after rehearsal, we’d take a walk together in the park, and I started having a good time. I was at home when the call came. It was the night before the play and I was doing my hair in my room. I ran downstairs and picked up the phone, my heart racing. Why was Jodie’s dad calling me? Jodie always called my phone. Perhaps something had happened! Mr. Parsons told Jodie had fallen off her bike on the way home. She was going to be fine but there was something wrong with her shoulder. The thoughts were racing round my head. The play was opening tomorrow night and Jodie... supposed to be playing the lead! Would the play be called off? Could someone else take the part? Poor Jodie! How was she feeling? Suddenly, I realized that Mr. Parsons was still talking “What was that, Mr. Parsons?” I asked. “Jodie wants you to play Shirley,” he repeated. “Me? W-w-why m-m-me?” I asked. “She said you knew the part,” he replied. So, that’s how I came to play Shirley. I must have picked up the lines during rehearsals. I knew them without realizing. Everyone clapped(鼓掌) as we took our final bow, but I’m sure Jodie would have been a better Shirley than me. 22．Why did the writer think she was right for the part of Shirley at first? A．Because she thought Jodie wasn’t able to sing. B．Because she thought she had a better memory than Jodie did. C．Because she thought Shirley was the only character she could play. D．Because she thought she matched the description of Shirley in the novel. 23．What can we infer(推断) from Paragraph 3? A．Jodie helped the writer a lot. B．All the actors loved summer best. C．The director Matthew used to be a good actor. D．The writer was no longer disappointed about the play. 24．How did the writer feel when she heard that Jodie’s father wanted to talk to her? A．She felt worried that something was wrong. B．She felt angry because she was busy doing her hair. C．She felt afraid that Jodie’s father might be angry with her. D．She felt happy that Jodie would not be able to play Shirley. 25．In the last paragraph, the underlined word “them” refer to _________. A．Shirley’s fans B．Shirley’s words C．the other actors D．the other parts in the play 三、信息还原 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 People often find it hard to make some inventions.

The Yang BOT robots on the Spring Festival Gala 46 (design) by their team. How Amazing! Here is his speech dedicated (献给) to spring: Believe. Many people might think I was a top student, but actually, I wasn’t. Especially in English—I tried my best but 47 (fail) most of times in high school. In the eyes of teachers and classmates, I was “slower” than others, and I myself felt worried too. However, I have my own love. I spent all my spare time on “small 48 (invent)”. At 10, I built a wind-powered car out of old cardboard. At 15, I made a tiny engine and model airplanes from scrap (废弃的) metal. At 19, I decided to make a robot. No one believed I could do it. At last, I invented a small two-legged robot with just 200 yuan 49 (success). From that experience, I learn that if you want to achieve anything that seems 50 (possible), you just need to break into thousands of small steps and solve them one by one. Later, I faced more challenges. When I started my robot company in my 51 (twenty), many people didn’t believe me. But I believe: Some people only believe when they see, while others see because they believe. In this fast-paced world, I would like 52 (take) it slow, avoiding shortcuts. I believe that if we keep doing difficult but right things, it 53 (pay) off in the future. Till now, the robots our company invented 54 (become) the most popular in the world. We are lucky because technology is growing faster than ever. Together, we can create smarter AI, 55 (good) robots, cooler games and more amazing movies than before. Finally, let’s remember the words from the movie Nezha. “Do you still want to change the world? I want to try! Let’s try together!” 七、任务型阅读 The idea of “gap days” has appeared on social media platforms recently. Unlike a gap year, a gap day means a really short period of relaxation and running away from everyday busy work. Apart from gap days, other similar expressions have made a hit on the Internet, like “city walk”, “dazi (activity partner)” and so on. Some people think that these kinds of new phrases are what people need. “For example, people used to use ‘taking a walk’, but now ‘city walk’ is the positive expression of it.” said Zhou Yaokai, “It’s the same with ‘gap day’. Instead of ‘lying flat’, people are actively trying to balance their stress and life, which is a good way.” Others disagree, however, and think that it’s simply just a kind of “sugaring up” (粉饰), meeting one’s need for showing off. For example, “city walk” is the same as “taking a walk”. But people feel better by calling it a “city walk”. Wu Ruilin is afraid that such new phrases may cover the risks behind it, such as safety problem. “For example, some young people are questing (寻找) for ‘dazi’, which is normally enjoyed alone or with close friends, like traveling and games. But most ‘dazi’ are just strangers, that may bring problems.” said Wu. But no matter what we think of these phrases, they have already taken root in our daily lives. So we need to keep a level head and not make them out to be bigger than they actually are. 56．What is a “gap day”? 57．What problem does Wu Ruilin worry about when young people look for “dazi”? 58．What do you think of these new phrases on the Internet? Why? 八、书面表达 59．你校校刊英语专栏正在开展以“Team spirit”为主题的征文活动。请你以“Be a Good Team Member”为题，用英语写一篇短文， 向专栏投稿。 内容： Show the importance of team spirit. Describe your experience.

My long, dark hair was much more similar to the character described in the novel than Jodie’s traditional good looks. And this was a musical play—Shirley had to sing and that was another reason I should have got the part. Rehearsals(排练) went on for eight weeks over the hottest part of the summer. At first, I wanted Jodie to fail, but as time went by I had to agree that she certainly had a better memory than I did, which made me realize that looks aren’t everything, even in the theatre. That summer was more enjoyable than I’d expected it to be. Our director, Matthew, made the rehearsals fun, telling us stories about his time as an actor. All the actors got on well-after rehearsal, we’d take a walk together in the park, and I started having a good time. I was at home when the call came. It was the night before the play and I was doing my hair in my room. I ran downstairs and picked up the phone, my heart racing. Why was Jodie’s dad calling me? Jodie always called my phone. Perhaps something had happened! Mr. Parsons told Jodie had fallen off her bike on the way home. She was going to be fine but there was something wrong with her shoulder. The thoughts were racing round my head. The play was opening tomorrow night and Jodie... supposed to be playing the lead! Would the play be called off? Could someone else take the part? Poor Jodie! How was she feeling? Suddenly, I realized that Mr. Parsons was still talking “What was that, Mr. Parsons?” I asked. “Jodie wants you to play Shirley,” he repeated. “Me? W-w-why m-m-me?” I asked. “She said you knew the part,” he replied. So, that’s how I came to play Shirley. I must have picked up the lines during rehearsals. I knew them without realizing. Everyone clapped(鼓掌) as we took our final bow, but I’m sure Jodie would have been a better Shirley than me. 22．Why did the writer think she was right for the part of Shirley at first? A．Because she thought Jodie wasn’t able to sing. B．Because she thought she had a better memory than Jodie did. C．Because she thought Shirley was the only character she could play. D．Because she thought she matched the description of Shirley in the novel. 23．What can we infer(推断) from Paragraph 3? A．Jodie helped the writer a lot. B．All the actors loved summer best. C．The director Matthew used to be a good actor. D．The writer was no longer disappointed about the play. 24．How did the writer feel when she heard that Jodie’s father wanted to talk to her? A．She felt worried that something was wrong. B．She felt angry because she was busy doing her hair. C．She felt afraid that Jodie’s father might be angry with her. D．She felt happy that Jodie would not be able to play Shirley. 25．In the last paragraph, the underlined word “them” refer to _________. A．Shirley’s fans B．Shirley’s words C．the other actors D．the other parts in the play 【答案】22．D 23．D 24．A 25．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者和Jodie共同出演了一个音乐剧，起初作者认为自己更适合胜任Shirley这个角色，经过八个星期的排练作者不得不承认Jodie比自己更加出色，在真正出演前Jodie意外受伤，在她的极力推荐下作者替代她出演了这个角色。虽然最后演出很成功，但是作者相信Jodie如果出演的话会比自己更加出色。 22．细节理解题。根据“I had truly believed I would get the part of Shirley. My long, dark hair was much more similar to the character described in the novel than Jodie’s traditional good looks”可知，作者认为自己的外貌更符合这个角色，故选D。 23．推理判断题。根据“That summer was more enjoyable than I’d expected it to be”及“ I started having a good time”可知，作者逐渐感到开心，对这个演出不再失望，故选D。 24．细节理解题。根据“ Perhaps something had happened”可知，作者感觉有不好的事情发生，故选A。 25．词义猜测题。根据“She said you knew the part”及“I must have picked up the lines during rehearsals. I knew them without realizing”可知，作者对于出演Shirley这个角色所讲的台词非常熟练，故选B。 三、信息还原 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 People often find it hard to make some inventions. So they think only a few people can be inventors! In fact, everyone can be an inventor if they want and are willing to start. 26 be an inventor, here are some wrong ideas you should avoid. Wrong idea 1: 27 Well, inventing means creating something new, but the idea could also come from something that is already there. The Wright brothers, for example, got the ideas for building a “flying machine” from watching birds, Wrong idea 2: Inventors are born, not made. There are a lot of factors (因素) that make inventions possible. Take Mozart, for example, He was born with a special talent for music. 28 His father was a music teacher, and Mozart practiced for hours every day, from the time he was in kindergarten. Thomas Edison said that being an inventor was “99% hard work and 1% inspiration!”. 29 As one inventor said, “A failure is the right answer to the wrong question!” Wrong idea 3: Inventors are always old people. 30 Here is an example of young inventors: Louis Brille went blind when he was a child, When he was 15, he invented a system of reading and writing for blind people that is still used in most countries today. A．But other factors were also important for his creativity. B．Perhaps this sounds crazy, but it’s true. C．Very successful creator also don’t give up when they get something wrong. D．An invention has to be something totally new, E．Young people don’t have the ability to make something new. F．Believe that you can invent something when you are young. G．Everyone agrees with the idea. 【答案】26．B 27．D 28．A 29．C 30．F 【导语】本文鼓励每个人，不论年龄大小，都可以成为发明家，并指出了一些关于发明和发明家的常见误解。 26．根据“People often find it hard to make some inventions. So they think only a few people can be inventors!

At 10, I built a wind-powered car out of old cardboard. At 15, I made a tiny engine and model airplanes from scrap (废弃的) metal. At 19, I decided to make a robot. No one believed I could do it. At last, I invented a small two-legged robot with just 200 yuan 49 (success).

Unlike a gap year, a gap day means a really short period of relaxation and running away from everyday busy work. Apart from gap days, other similar expressions have made a hit on the Internet, like “city walk”, “dazi (activity partner)” and so on. Some people think that these kinds of new phrases are what people need. “For example, people used to use ‘taking a walk’, but now ‘city walk’ is the positive expression of it.” said Zhou Yaokai, “It’s the same with ‘gap day’. Instead of ‘lying flat’, people are actively trying to balance their stress and life, which is a good way.” Others disagree, however, and think that it’s simply just a kind of “sugaring up” (粉饰), meeting one’s need for showing off. For example, “city walk” is the same as “taking a walk”. But people feel better by calling it a “city walk”. Wu Ruilin is afraid that such new phrases may cover the risks behind it, such as safety problem. “For example, some young people are questing (寻找) for ‘dazi’, which is normally enjoyed alone or with close friends, like traveling and games. But most ‘dazi’ are just strangers, that may bring problems.” said Wu. But no matter what we think of these phrases, they have already taken root in our daily lives. So we need to keep a level head and not make them out to be bigger than they actually are. 56．What is a “gap day”? 57．What problem does Wu Ruilin worry about when young people look for “dazi”? 58．What do you think of these new phrases on the Internet? Why? 【答案】56．It means a really short period of relaxation and running away from everyday busy work. 57．Wu Ruilin worries about safety problem because most “dazi” are just strangers. 58．I think these new internet phrases are generally positive developments. Because these phrases reflect people’s need for balance and self-expression, but we should be cautious about potential risks. 【导语】本文主要讨论了近期社交媒体上流行的新词汇的积极意义和潜在问题，并呼吁理性看待这些现象。 56．根据“Unlike a gap year, a gap day means a really short period of relaxation and running away from everyday busy work.”可知，“gap day”指的是短暂的放松和逃离日常繁忙工作的时光。故填It means a really short period of relaxation and running away from everyday busy work. 57．根据“But most ‘dazi’ are just strangers, that may bring problems.”可知，大多数“搭子”只是陌生人，可能带来问题。由此可推知，吴睿琳担心的是陌生人带来的安全隐患。故填Wu Ruilin worries about safety problem because most “dazi” are just strangers. 58．开放性试题，答案不唯一，言之有理即可。参考答案为：I think these new internet phrases are generally positive developments. Because these phrases reflect people’s need for balance and self-expression, but we should be cautious about potential risks. 八、书面表达 59．你校校刊英语专栏正在开展以“Team spirit”为主题的征文活动。请你以“Be a Good Team Member”为题，用英语写一篇短文， 向专栏投稿。 内容： Show the importance of team spirit.
