Passage 1
Deep in the woods lived a little squirrel (松鼠) called Nico. One day, Nico saw some orange leaves falling off the trees. "Fall is here!" Nico shouted excitedly. "It's time for Nut Hunt Day!"
All the little squirrels did exercises to get ready for the big day. They practiced running, climbing, and jumping. Everyone wanted to win the Nut Hunt (找坚果比赛).
When the game kicked off, the little squirrels in the starting circle all ran in different directions. Nico started the hunt well. He jumped around, looking for the nuts under the orange leaves. "Oh, I found one! My first nut!" Nico said happily and picked up the nut. He continued the hunt, holding the nut in his little paw (爪子). "Oh, another one!" Nico cheered. He picked up the nut with another paw and moved on. But when Nico tried to pick up the third nut, he faced a problem. "How can I carry these three nuts with two paws to the starting circle?" Nico thought. "Oh, I know!" Nico put the nuts on top of one another and tried to carry them all together. But the nut tower was too high, and he couldn't see the way! Ouch! Nico fell and dropped all of the nuts! "I might carry one nut in one pa w and two nuts in another paw," Nico said. But soon Nico realized how difficult it was. He dropped one nut on his leg. Ouch! Then he dropped another nut. Ouch! And another! Ouch! Ouch!

Dear teachers and students,

Considering the importance of helping students have a healthy body and mind, the school made this decision. Besides, it is scientific not to make students spend too much time at school.
This change in the senior high school quickly becomes a hot topic. People have different ideas about it.

The two-day weekend provides me with more time for my all-round development. I can take up new hobbies like gardening, yoga or painting. Also, I can take part in volunteer work or community service. These activities help open my eyes, improve my communication skills and grow my sense of responsibility.
My parents are busy working on weekends. For two days, there's no one watching over me. I may lose myself in playing computer games or watching TV rather than focusing on my studies. If I relax over the weekend while other classmates continue studying, I am afraid I will fall behind.
Mr. Yu, a parent
Ms. Ma, a teacher
AI is developing fast. AI and the two-day break at home give children chances to learn more efficiently (高效地). AI can make personal learning plans to help deal with children's difficulties. What's more, AI offers intelligent services to answer children's questions at any time.
The two-day weekend makes independent learning possible for students. They can set their own study goals, and manage their time to reflect on what they've learned at school or further explore (探究) subjects they enjoy. This helps them to develop their thinking ability.

Passage 3
We may have an interview for our volunteer work. And the following suggestions will help make the interview a success.
We should do some research on the volunteer work. We can call the organization or visit its website to find out some information about it. It's also important for us to think about what questions the interviewers may ask. It will help us to keep the interview going smoothly.
When leaving for the interview, we must remember to take everything we need. And we're supposed to be at the interview about 30 minutes early. It allows us to get ready for the interview.
Before we go into the interview room, we can take a deep breath to relax ourselves. When we hear someone ask us to go inside, we can enter the room. We should greet the interviewers with a smile and stand until they ask us to sit down.
In answering questions, we had better be confident to show our talent and skills. It's important to look into the interviewers' eyes even if we are very nervous and shy. If we can't understand the interviewers' questions, it's OK to ask the interviewers to explain them further.
Before the interview is over, the interviewers usually invite us to ask some questions. We can ask a question about the work or the interview. For example, "What kind of training do you offer to volunteers?" We are supposed to thank the interviewers before we leave.
With these suggestions, we will have a good chance of getting volunteer work.

Passage 4
Recently, I started to use an app to keep a record of my running. Each run I wanted to go a little farther, run a little faster and burn more calories (卡路里). Last night I finished an 8.3-km run in 46 minutes and burnt 468 calories. In comparison, my run two days ago was 8.6 km in 46 minutes with 483 calories burnt. This inner self-comparison left me feeling disappointed. I became so focused (专注的) on the numbers that I forgot to consider what I achieved.
These tiny differences in numbers kept me away from the bigger picture: How did I actually feel after completing my most recent run? Well, honestly, I was completely tired out. What good is running to beat your top score if you don't feel on top?
We should exercise for the purpose of building our confidence. And working out harder and faster may serve that purpose. But confidence building comes with being able to do more in our day-to-day life, experiencing less pain and more freedom in movement, and feeling good after a workout. Fitness should help us with our quality (质量) of life, the ability to sleep, good memory, among other things. Fitness should not just come with the eagerness for the success in numbers.
In our busy lives, we only have limited time for fitness. When we do physical exercise, we should value what feels good over what looks or sounds good. Sometimes what serves us and our health is coming home and doing a light workout, like going on a short bike ride. Sometimes what serves us is simply going to sleep at 9:30 p.m. instead of forcing ourselves into a workout. Apps of this kind are a great way for us to keep an eye on our health. But don't read into the numbers to the point where you lose out on feeling proud that you are taking care of yourself. So my advice is: when you do physical exercise, make sure you feel good about yourself over feeling good about the numbers.
1. Why did the writer start to use the app?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
2. What did the writer forget to consider when he became too focused on the numbers?

3. According to the writer, what should be our purpose of doing exercise?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
4. When you do physical exercise, which do you think is more important, feeling good about yourself or feeling good about the numbers? Why? (Please give two reasons.)

Passage 5
On April 19, the world's first half-marathon for humanoid (人形的) robots was held in Beijing. The robots waited beside human runners, starting from the same line.
"I saw many robots running. Some were surprisingly fast, others had very lovely designs, and their running styles were quite different," said Zhang Huihui, who took part in the race.
During the 21-kilometer-long race, the robots had to run on two legs. Some even wore running shoes. Each robot was supported by a team of human guides, operators (操作员) and engineers. They could have their batteries changed during the race. Teams could even use new robots when the old ones could no longer run.
There were 20 teams in the race and six of them made it to the end. Tiangong Ultra won the first in two hours and 40 minutes. "It crossed the finish line about 30 minutes earlier than expected," said Xiong Youjun, CEO of a robot center. "In general, all the robots today could deal with challenges such as turns and speed bumps. We made history together."
"Robots' completing the race isn't the finish line. It's the starting point for the growth of the robot industry," said Liang Liang, from Yizhuang's Administrative Committee.
Although the robots fell from time to time, the event proved that they could do real-life tasks. Liang added, "Their small steps today will become giant leaps for human technological progress tomorrow."

Passage 7
Every Saturday, Wang Weifang puts on a play with his friends in a small town near Xi'an. The audience (观众) can hear them, but they cannot see them. That is because they are putting on a shadow puppet (皮影) play. Shadow puppets are made of hard leather (皮革). The leather is cut out in the shape of a person, an animal or an object. Each puppet is painted in bright colors and put on a stick. Some puppets have movable arms and legs.
During a shadow puppet play, Wang stands behind a white screen with lights behind it. The audience sit in front of the screen. Wang and his friends hold the puppets very close to the screen so that the audience can see the puppets' shadows clearly. Then they move the puppets around and do the voices of the different characters.
Shadow puppet play is a kind of ancient Chinese art. Now with TV and films, shadow puppet plays are not as popular as before. Wang and his friends often work very hard for little money, but they do not mind. They want to keep this traditional art form alive.

Passage 8
I was walking along a busy road when I noticed a young man standing near the crossing selling toys. Usually I would hurry past such sellers. But I found this young man was blind. I wanted to see how he sold his things, so I stood for some time without crossing the street.
Soon, a young mother with a little girl came by and the child set her eyes on one of the teddy bears. The mother asked about the price and it was only one dollar. She pulled out a 10-dollar note from her handbag and told the young man that she was giving him 10 dollars and wanted the change (零钱) back. I was wondering how he was going to do it. He told the young mother to put the money in the bag hanging around his neck and take out her change herself.
I realized that this young man believed people would not cheat him. There was no way for him to know whether someone would take out more than they should have. As a 30-year-old man, I was deeply moved. I bought a model car from him that I didn't need. As I walked down the street, I gave the model car to a kid walking with his father.
I kept thinking that the world would be a better place if we could all learn to trust each other more, like the young blind street seller.

Passage 9
Cooperation comes from friendship, friendship comes from trust, and trust comes from kindness. It's easy to tell that kindness is very important. What is kindness then? To be exact, kindness is the quality of being friendly. If we give up our seats on the bus, help a classmate solve a math problem, or welcome a new member into a group activity, we are showing kindness. Actually, these acts are done without expectation of reward (回报).
We begin to realise that while helping others, we're in fact helping ourselves. Showing kindness benefits us in different ways. It helps us know about ourselves. It develops our problem-solving skills. It also gives us the chance to be thankful.
We can never imagine the power of one simple act of kindness. It may change our day. And that day may change our week. That week may change the rest of the year—or even our whole life.
In short, we rise by lifting others.
Here are some teenagers' acts of kindness.
Linda: I sat next to a new student at lunch. I was pleased because I made her day.
Kayla: In order to raise money and protect wild animals, I held a singing competition. I was proud of it.
Peter: I opened the door for an old lady. I felt happy because I could help other people.

2. List two benefits of showing kindness.

Passage 10
Liang Qichao educated his own children well. He set a good example for them and often communicated with them. If there were a talk across time and space, he would advise middle school students like this. Don't be afraid of the difficulties in life. Never stop learning. You'll get good results sooner or later. No matter where you go in the world, don't forget your motherland. You have many chances and can go after your personal dreams anywhere, but you should always keep your homeland in your heart.
It took Qian Xuesen five years to finally return to China from America and ten years to complete the rocket project. Mr. Qian put all his life into the endless outer space as the leader of China's "Two Bombs and One Satellite" Project. He is known as the "father of China's space program" and "king of rocket". Qian Xuesen was so great a scientist, but he never stopped his research. He believed that there was no end to the exploration (探索) of science and truth, and said, "Nothing is final!"
When Yuan Longping was young, he saw lots of Chinese people starving (挨饿). To make sure everyone had enough to eat, he worked in the fields for many years doing experiments. He didn't stop even when others told him he was wasting his time. Because of his research, China's rice yields (产量) increased greatly.

Passage 11
Because of his excellent performance, Hao Yongquan, 58, was chosen as Gansu's most beautiful forest ranger (护林员) in December, 2023.
Hao has been a forest ranger for 37 years since he stopped serving in the army in 1987. He and his workmates at Guanyin Forest Farm are called the "forests eyes" and "green guardians".
"Daily work usually starts with patrolling (巡逻). Every morning, we carry necessary equipment after having breakfast and then set off to forests with dry food and water bottles, patrolling until it gets dark," Hao said.
Rangers have been living in the mountains and forests for years, getting used to difficulties and loneliness. They always go out early and return at sunset during the whole year, and their duty is to protect green mountains and clear waters.
A forest ranger often has to walk more than 12 kilometers a day, and a pair of shoes wears out in two to three months, according to Hao.
Hao Yongquan works at Liuping Forest Management Office. It manages 10,511.6 hectares (公顷).
"Because of poor road conditions, if rangers go to the farthest villages for patrols, they have to walk 30 to 40 kilometers on mountain roads, climb four mountains, and cross more than 10 rivers," Hao said. "And each patrol takes three to four days."
When Hao returns from his patrol every day, he writes down the results in the patrol diary, recording his love for mountains and forests.
"The environment is improving day by day, and that makes me feel my work is worth it," he said.

Passage 12
Dreams may make you smart. This was discovered by scientists who do research on dreams.
What is a dream exactly? Scientists explain that during sleep time your brain reviews your experiences in the day. It tries to connect your new experiences with the old memories (记忆). As your brain connects things, it turns them into a story, and then you get a dream.
Dreams may help you deal with worries and fears. What has happened during the day may be painful. While you are sleeping, however, the brain will replay the painful memories in a safe dream space. There the bad memories become less painful. And you will feel better after waking up.
Dreams also seem to be able to help you learn. This idea is supported by a study. So scientists advise you not to stay up all night studying, especially when an exam is coming. They say a sweet dream might help you get higher marks.
Dreams may make you more creative, too. It was reported that a famous songwriter came up with his best song in a dream, and wrote it down as soon as he woke up. However, dreams alone can't bring about creativity. In fact, the songwriter spent a lot of time thinking about the song before the dream. In a word, hard work matters more for creativity, though dreams also have a role to play.
