Does anybody like doing housework? Should children do housework? For some children, doing housework may be their last choice. For many parents, getting their children to do some housework is also one big headache. However, Tom’s mother found a creative way.
She came up with a reward system (奖励制度) for her two sons at home and posted it online. She chose some housework and gave them money for what they did. She also opened a “mini supermarket” at home for her kids. They could buy candies at her mini market from 10:00 a. m. to 8:00 p. m. The money she gave to her kids was a kind of prop (道具).
Because of the system, her children are now more willing to do housework. Her post has got over 15,000 likes and has been shared over 27,000 times online. Many parents have begun to imitate her. In other words, they use the same way to teach their children.
In fact, doing housework can play a very important role in children’s growth. First, it teaches children necessary skills for living, such as cooking and cleaning. Second, it is a good way to help children keep healthy. Third, it creates possibilities for parents and children to be closer. Finally, a child can grow into a responsible (有责任感的) and independent person by helping with the housework.
59. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. Her mini market. B. Her two children.
C. Her online prop. D. Her reward system.
60. What does the underlined word “imitate” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Notice. B. Like. C. Copy. D. Believe.
61. What’s the purpose (目的) of the text?
A. To advise parents to do housework.
B. To teach kids how to do housework.
C. To let family do housework together.
D. To encourage children to do more housework.
【答案】59. D 60. C 61. D
【解析】
【导语】本文鼓励儿童多做家务,并阐述了做家务对儿童成长的益处。
【59题详解】
第二段主要讲述了Tom的母亲为了解决孩子做家务的问题,想出了一个“奖励制度”(reward system)。虽然段落中提到了“迷你超市”和“道具”,但这些都是为了配合这个奖励制度而设立的。因此,本段的主旨是介绍她的奖励制度。故选D。
【60题详解】
根据划线词所在句子的后一句 “In other words, they use the same way to teach their children.”(换句话说,他们用同样的方法来教育他们的孩子)可知,许多家长开始效仿或模仿这位母亲的做法。Notice意为“注意”,Like意为“喜欢”,Copy意为“模仿、复制”,Believe意为“相信”。Copy与文意最相符。故选C。
【61题详解】
文章开头提出了孩子不喜欢做家务这一难题,接着通过Tom母亲的创新方法引出话题,最后在第四段详细阐述了做家务对孩子成长的各种好处(如学习生活技能、保持健康、培养责任感等)。作者通过列举这些好处,旨在鼓励孩子们多做家务。故选D。

Home is a special place for everyone. What makes your home “sweet Home”? For different people, the answer is different.
For 13-year-old Li Mei, her home is sweet because of her family. Every evening, her family sit in the living room together-her dad reads newspapers, her mom watches TV, and she does her homework. Sometimes, they play “treasure hunt” games—her mom hides small gifts (like biscuits or pencils) and her brother looks for them. “It’s fun. We always laugh a lot. ” Li Mei says.
For 14-year-old Tom, his home is sweet because of his bedroom. He decorated it himself—he put up posters of his favorite football players on the walls, and made paper-cuts with his grandma’s help. “My bedroom is my favorite place. I can listen to music, read books or just relax there. ” Tom says.
For Mrs. Wang, a neighbor of Li Mei, her home is sweet because of the community. Every Saturday morning, she and her friends clean up the community together. They also help old people carry their shopping bags. “We are like a big family. Everyone helps each other. ” Mrs. Wang says. No matter what your home is like, it’s the people and the love inside that make it “sweet home”.

A. They go shopping together. B. They sit in the living room together.

Everybody knows that cats like to sleep. They spend more than half their lives sleeping and enjoy every minute of it. However, other animals have different sleeping habits. Horses may not look like they are asleep. But they are! Horses spend about six hours sleeping every day and they do it standing up!
Fish also sleep every day but they have a strange habit. They don’t close their eyes when they are sleeping. When ducks sleep they keep one eye open and half of the brain awake. It helps them stay alert (警觉的) and watch out for dangerous animals.
So what about humans (人类) ? Well, most people sleep for about a third of their lives. The number of hours you sleep has to do with your age. Most newborn (新生的) babies sleep a lot. They spend about 75% of their time sleeping every day! As you get older, you need less sleep. Children need about eleven hours and adults (成年人) sleep for eight hours every night.
So, yes, you spend many hours a year doing nothing—sleeping in bed!
But you’re not just asleep—you’re not really doing nothing. Your body and your mind relax during this time, but a lot of things happen during sleep. Dreams are one way that the mind relaxes after a busy day. A person spends about 20% of every night dreaming. That means you have about four or five dreams every night or about 1,600 dreams a year.
66. What do you know about horses from the passage?
A. They sleep with one eye open.
B. They spend half of their life sleeping.
C. They keep standing up when sleeping.
D. They don’t close their eyes when sleeping.
67. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. How can we have a good sleep?
B. Why some people don’t have dreams.
C. How many dreams we have every night.
D. What our body and mind are doing when we’re sleeping.
68. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. An art book. B. A science book.
C. A sports book. D. A history book.
【答案】66. C 67. D 68. B
【解析】

In a school garden in Ningxia, the roles of students are not the same as before. Here, students do the teaching.
“This is our vegetable area,” a student from Grade 8 tells a visitor. “We have grown many kinds of vegetables.”
“Look! These are tomatoes,” another student adds, “and those are carrots…”
The two students have been working in the garden since 2021. They are part of their school’s gardening programme. Actually, most schools in Ningxia have their own gardens, where students harvest (收获) their special “schoolwork”.
In the gardens, students work in teams with the help of their teachers. They finish all the important steps by themselves. For example, team members study what to grow. Then they discuss and plan their gardens. They plant seeds (种子), pull weeds and water their plants. Some students also grow oranges and apples by themselves. In autumn, they harvest their “schoolwork”—all kinds of fruits and vegetables!
★ too. For example, students study the plants they grow in science classes. Maths becomes a tool for planning the garden. Studies have shown that schools’ gardening programmes help students do better in school. Schools’ gardening programmes offer learning experiences as well as fun. Young gardeners can practise skills that are useful for all their lives. They’ve had fun working together as a team and learned how to work together.
69. According to the passage, which subject do students use to plan the school garden?
A. History B. Maths C. English D. Geography
70. What can we infer about the gardening programme from the passage?
A. It makes students dislike traditional classes
B. It helps students learn practical life skills
C. It is only open to Grade 8 students
D. It requires parents to help with planting
71. Which of the following can be put in ★ ?
A. School gardens provide ideas for classes
B. School gardens provide ideas for hobbies
C. Classes are getting more and more interesting
D. Students become more interested in gardening programmes
72. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Students in Ningxia Love Gardening
B. How to Organize a School Gardening Programme
C. A Special “Schoolwork” in Ningxia’s School Gardens
D. Different Ways to Improve Students’ Teamwork Skills
【答案】69. B 70. B 71. A 72. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了在宁夏的一个学校菜园里学生团队合作种植蔬菜等植物。
【69题详解】

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题 (请注意每小题的词数要求)。
In ancient China, there was a famous musician named Yu Boya. He was highly talented in playing the guqin. His music was so beautiful that it could touch people's hearts.
One day, while playing the guqin by the riverside, Yu Boya met Zhong Ziqi. Although Zhong Ziqi was only a woodcutter (伐木者), he was able to understand the feelings and meanings expressed through Yu Boya’s music.
Zhong Ziqi could tell when Yu Boya was playing for the mountains or waters.
This deep understanding helped to build a strong friendship between them. They became close friends who could communicate through the language of music.
Unluckily, Zhong Ziqi died soon. Yu Boya was really sad. In memory of his dear friend, he broke his guqin, saying never to play it again.
Their story is popular through the ages as a symbol of true friendship. It shows that real friends do not necessarily need to be the same. No matter who you are, and what you do, true friendship can bring people together in a way that nothing else can.
73. Where did Yu Boya meet Zhong Ziqi for the first time? (不超过5个词)
___________________________________
74. How could Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi communicate with each other? (不超过5个词)

【答案】73. By the riverside.

【74题详解】
第四段提到“They became close friends who could communicate through the language of music.”,说明二人以音乐交流,直接提取信息:“Through the language of music.”/“By communicating through music.”
【75题详解】
本题为开放性问题,答案不唯一,本文的核心是传递“何为真挚友谊”的内涵,需围绕全文主旨“真挚友谊或知音”作答,所给答案如“Real friends do not necessarily need to be the same.”为合理答案。

Does anybody like doing housework? Should children do housework? For some children, doing housework may be their last choice. For many parents, getting their children to do some housework is also one big headache. However, Tom’s mother found a creative way.
She came up with a reward system (奖励制度) for her two sons at home and posted it online. She chose some housework and gave them money for what they did. She also opened a “mini supermarket” at home for her kids. They could buy candies at her mini market from 10:00 a. m. to 8:00 p. m. The money she gave to her kids was a kind of prop (道具).
Because of the system, her children are now more willing to do housework. Her post has got over 15,000 likes and has been shared over 27,000 times online. Many parents have begun to imitate her. In other words, they use the same way to teach their children.
In fact, doing housework can play a very important role in children’s growth. First, it teaches children necessary skills for living, such as cooking and cleaning. Second, it is a good way to help children keep healthy. Third, it creates possibilities for parents and children to be closer. Finally, a child can grow into a responsible (有责任感的) and independent person by helping with the housework.

C. Her online prop. D. Her reward system.

Home is a special place for everyone. What makes your home “sweet Home”? For different people, the answer is different.
For 13-year-old Li Mei, her home is sweet because of her family. Every evening, her family sit in the living room together-her dad reads newspapers, her mom watches TV, and she does her homework. Sometimes, they play “treasure hunt” games—her mom hides small gifts (like biscuits or pencils) and her brother looks for them. “It’s fun. We always laugh a lot. ” Li Mei says.
For 14-year-old Tom, his home is sweet because of his bedroom. He decorated it himself—he put up posters of his favorite football players on the walls, and made paper-cuts with his grandma’s help. “My bedroom is my favorite place. I can listen to music, read books or just relax there. ” Tom says.
For Mrs. Wang, a neighbor of Li Mei, her home is sweet because of the community. Every Saturday morning, she and her friends clean up the community together. They also help old people carry their shopping bags. “We are like a big family. Everyone helps each other. ” Mrs. Wang says. No matter what your home is like, it’s the people and the love inside that make it “sweet home”.

Everybody knows that cats like to sleep. They spend more than half their lives sleeping and enjoy every minute of it. However, other animals have different sleeping habits. Horses may not look like they are asleep. But they are! Horses spend about six hours sleeping every day and they do it standing up!
Fish also sleep every day but they have a strange habit. They don’t close their eyes when they are sleeping. When ducks sleep they keep one eye open and half of the brain awake. It helps them stay alert (警觉的) and watch out for dangerous animals.
So what about humans (人类) ? Well, most people sleep for about a third of their lives. The number of hours you sleep has to do with your age. Most newborn (新生的) babies sleep a lot. They spend about 75% of their time sleeping every day! As you get older, you need less sleep. Children need about eleven hours and adults (成年人) sleep for eight hours every night.
So, yes, you spend many hours a year doing nothing—sleeping in bed!
But you’re not just asleep—you’re not really doing nothing. Your body and your mind relax during this time, but a lot of things happen during sleep. Dreams are one way that the mind relaxes after a busy day. A person spends about 20% of every night dreaming. That means you have about four or five dreams every night or about 1,600 dreams a year.
66. What do you know about horses from the passage?
A. They sleep with one eye open.
B. They spend half of their life sleeping.
C. They keep standing up when sleeping.
D. They don’t close their eyes when sleeping.

A. How can we have a good sleep?
B. Why some people don’t have dreams.
C. How many dreams we have every night.
D. What our body and mind are doing when we’re sleeping.
68. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. An art book. B. A science book.
C. A sports book. D. A history book.

In a school garden in Ningxia, the roles of students are not the same as before. Here, students do the teaching.
“This is our vegetable area,” a student from Grade 8 tells a visitor. “We have grown many kinds of vegetables.”
“Look! These are tomatoes,” another student adds, “and those are carrots…”
The two students have been working in the garden since 2021. They are part of their school’s gardening programme. Actually, most schools in Ningxia have their own gardens, where students harvest (收获) their special “schoolwork”.
In the gardens, students work in teams with the help of their teachers. They finish all the important steps by themselves. For example, team members study what to grow. Then they discuss and plan their gardens. They plant seeds (种子), pull weeds and water their plants. Some students also grow oranges and apples by themselves. In autumn, they harvest their “schoolwork”—all kinds of fruits and vegetables!
★ too. For example, students study the plants they grow in science classes. Maths becomes a tool for planning the garden. Studies have shown that schools’ gardening programmes help students do better in school. Schools’ gardening programmes offer learning experiences as well as fun. Young gardeners can practise skills that are useful for all their lives. They’ve had fun working together as a team and learned how to work together.

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题 (请注意每小题的词数要求)。
In ancient China, there was a famous musician named Yu Boya. He was highly talented in playing the guqin. His music was so beautiful that it could touch people's hearts.
One day, while playing the guqin by the riverside, Yu Boya met Zhong Ziqi. Although Zhong Ziqi was only a woodcutter (伐木者), he was able to understand the feelings and meanings expressed through Yu Boya’s music.
Zhong Ziqi could tell when Yu Boya was playing for the mountains or waters.
This deep understanding helped to build a strong friendship between them. They became close friends who could communicate through the language of music.
Unluckily, Zhong Ziqi died soon. Yu Boya was really sad. In memory of his dear friend, he broke his guqin, saying never to play it again.
Their story is popular through the ages as a symbol of true friendship. It shows that real friends do not necessarily need to be the same. No matter who you are, and what you do, true friendship can bring people together in a way that nothing else can.
