Meet the Georgians By Robert Peal, UK The writer, a history teacher from London, writes about different people and places from the 18th century. He wants to show the readers a “wild time” in British history. A book review says that this book is the best one for kids to become interested in British history. Solutions and Other Problems By Allie Brosh, US This is a popular graphic (配图的) novel. The writer uses a special art style to tell some heartbreaking stories.

Everything Sad Is Untrue By Daniel Nayeri, Iran/US（伊朗裔美籍） It is an autobiography (自传) about the writer’s own experiences as an immigrant (移民) to the USA. Young Daniel went to a middle school in an American town, where he was the only Iranian kid. Everyone thought he was different. To make people understand him, he told them his family’s stories. This book explores what it feels like to part with one’s home country. Stars of Wonder By Rebecca Bruff, US Bruff makes up an interesting adventure (冒险) story in the book. Five children, three princes (王子) — Jonah, Nathan, Jacob, a princess (公主) — Phoebe, and their friend Sumar travel toward a bright star—Star of Wonder.

In a science magazine B During the May Day holiday in 2023, a young man known as “Nanduoduo” online shared his journey. He reached the tops of the “five great mountains” in China, in only five days. Nanduoduo works in Chengdu, Sichuan. He came up with the “crazy idea” a month before the holiday and made a good plan. Nanduoduo left Chengdu on 28 April for his first stop, Mount Heng (in Hunan). He first flew to Changsha and then took a train there. After climbing Mount Heng on 29 April, he went to Zhengzhou, Henan, and then took a coach to Dengfeng, where Mount Song is located. On the evening of 30 April, he took a high-speed train to Tai’an, Shandong in preparation for the second day’s tour on Mount Tai. Later, he took an overnight train to Datong, Shanxi to climb Mount Heng (in Shanxi). Nanduoduo’s final stop was Mount Hua in Shaanxi. He left the mountain at 6: 10 p. m. on May 3 and went back to Chengdu at 11: 10 pm. His five-day journey was complex because he had to take many kinds of transportation (交通) in a short period of time. The journey received great attention. People were surprised at how the man planned the journey “down to every single minute”. More importantly, it brought out a sense of national pride, because the journey would have been impossible without the convenient transportation of our country. 24. What is Nanduoduo’s crazy idea? A. He’ll spend only five days reaching five famous mountains. B. He’ll visit Mount Heng of China twice in only five days. C. He’ll spend less money reaching five famous mountains. D. He’ll visit all five mountains without taking any transportation. 25. What is the correct order of the mountains Nanduoduo climbed during his journey? A. Mount Heng in Hunan→Mount Heng in Shanxi→Mount Song→Mount Tai→Mount Hua B. Mount Heng in Hunan→Mount Song→Mount Heng in Shanxi→Mount Tai→Mount Hua C. Mount Heng in Hunan→Mount Song→Mount Tai→Mount Heng in Shanxi→Mount Hua D. Mount Heng in Hunan→Mount Tai→Mount Song→Mount Heng in Shanxi→Mount Hua 26. What can we infer from the passage? A. It is easy to visit five mountains in five days. B. People are proud of the convenient transportation. C. Nanduoduo was very tired after the journey. D. Nanduoduo planned this journey just to become famous online. 27. What’s the best title of this passage? A. A Famous Traveller— Nanduoduo B. A Crazy Five-Day Journey C. Five Great Mountains in China D. The Convenient Transportation in China C In the days that followed, I slowly became friendly with the emperor and his people. They did their best to make me feel at home and brought me food and drinks. I learnt that the name of their country was Lilliput. The emperor of Lilliput was a noble-looking (气宇轩昂的) man. He wore expensive clothes and had a big hat decorated with feathers. The queen was also very elegant. Hundreds of the little people worked together to make new clothes for me and they gathered six hundred mattresses (床垫) to make me a bed. The people of Lilliput called me “Man Mountain” and they came from all over the country to see me. People had to pay to see me and the money made the emperor very rich. One day the emperor organized a parade for his people. He asked me to stand and his army walked through my legs to make everyone laugh happily. There were thousands of soldiers, and some of them were on horses. Everyone was happy. The emperor and his people always treated me well and helped me in many ways. They organized language lessons for me. So gradually I began to understand and communicate with the Lilliputians and learn more about their lives. But I was still a prisoner in my temple home and every day I asked the emperor the same question: “________” “You must be patient,” he always answered. Then one day the emperor gave me the freedom to walk about Lilliput. This made a big difference to me. I was able to explore the land. I was careful not to hurt the people or damage their houses as I walked. Everyone stayed inside and ran to their windows to look at me. I enjoyed looking into the windows of the emperor’s beautiful palace to see how he lived. —Adapted from Gulliver’s Travels 28. The emperor became very rich because ________.

However, in recent years, the museum has been working hard to promote (传承) Chinese cultural heritage (遗产) among young people. The museum’s online store now offers special cultural and creative products. For example, in 2014 they started to make T-shirts that look like an emperor’s coat. They also sold earphones. The earphones look like the necklaces worn by ancient officials (官员) . These products brought in about 1,000 million yuan in sales in 2016, reported China Youth Daily. The museum has made an app called A Day of an Emperor. In it, it teaches users about a day of life and work of an emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Last year, a documentary (纪录片) , Masters in the Forbidden City, became popular online. It tells about the people whose jobs are to repair the relics (文物) in the museum. Many of these workers are young and some are even in their 20s. Some other museums across the country, such as the National Museum of China, have begun similar projects, too. The recent development follows what our president said, “We should show cultural relics in the Forbidden City across the country, and let characters in the ancient books come alive.” 33. According to this article, you can buy ________ at the museum’s online store. A. coats B. T-shirts C. necklaces D. sweaters 34. The cultural and creative products brought in about ________ yuan in sales in 2016. A. 1,000,000 B. 10,000,000 C. 1,000,000,000 D. 100,000,000 35. If you use the app A Day of an Emperor, you can ________. A. learn about a day of life in the Forbidden City B. learn about the recent development of the Palace Museum C. learn about a day of life and work of an ancient officer of the Qing Dynasty D. learn about a day of life and work of an emperor of the Qing Dynasty 36. According to Masters in the Forbidden City, many young people work to ________. A. repair the relics in the museum B. show tourists around the museum C. draw paintings of the museum D. take photos to sell to foreigners 37. What can we learn from the passage? A. The Palace Museum only sells old things in its online store. B. The Palace Museum tries to make Chinese culture popular among young people. C. No young people are willing to repair the cultural relics in the museum. D. Only the Palace Museum does well in passing on traditional culture. E Have you ever heard about the story The Old Man and the Sea? It was written by American writer Hemingway in 1951. The story is about an old fisherman who has been fighting for a long time with a huge marlin (枪鱼) . The old man went fishing every day, but he didn’t catch a fish for eighty-four days. In the first forty days, there was a boy with him. The old man taught the boy to fish. But after forty days without a fish, the boy’s parents told him the old man was unlucky. The boy then worked on another boat. After the boy left, the old man went fishing alone. One day the old man caught a huge marlin. Unluckily, the marlin’s blood (血液) attracted a lot of sharks (鲨鱼) . The old man was weak but fought against them hard. Finally, he went back with a huge fish skeleton (骨架) . Although the old man didn’t bring back the fish, he fought bravely and won at last. We should learn from the old man. When we meet difficulties in our daily lives, . 38. Who wrote the book The Old Man and the Sea? (不超过5个词) ________________________________________________ 39.
