She and her sister Brooke have very different tastes in books. But they both believe that kids are more likely to read if they relate to (理解并非常喜欢) a book’s characters. That’s why they started Books Like Me in 2020 in Florida. The nonprofit (非营利的) group provides teachers with all kinds of children’s books. “We didn’t really like reading before,” Halli said. “Then we started to look for books that had characters we saw ourselves in. It made us want to read more. And we wanted to share that with other students.” So far, the sisters have given away more than 16,000 books. Most have been given away in Florida—the sisters lived there when they started Books Like Me. Now they live in California. As word about their group spreads, teachers from all over the US ask for donations (捐赠) from Books Like Me online. Teachers say it’s important for students to read all kinds of books. Carter teaches the fourth grade at a school in Florida. She says donations from Books Like Me have gotten her students excited about reading. “My students enjoy seeing a character that looks similar to them,” Carter says. “A book can be a mirror, letting kids see themselves in its characters. I hope that all kids can see themselves in books so that they enjoy reading,” Halli says. 5. Why did Halli and her sister start Books Like Me? A. To make money by selling books. B. To teach students how to write stories. C. To help students find books they will love. D. To share their favourite books with teachers. 6. Halli and Brooke have given away most of the books in . A. Florida B. Texas C. all over the US D. California 7. What does Carter think of Books Like Me? A. Boring. B. Helpful. C. Difficult. D. Unnecessary. 8. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Books Like Me B. How to Choose Books C. Different Tastes in Reading D. Two Sisters’ Love for Reading C I still remember the moment I fell in love with tea. I had never been a fan of traditional English-style tea with milk and sugar. In fact, until that day, I had never even drunk tea. I was about ten years old and at an Asian restaurant with my dad, aunt and cousins. A woman came out of the kitchen with a pot of tea. She greeted my aunt and gently placed the teapot on the table with six cups. My aunt poured a cup for my dad and one for herself. I looked at the menu and felt worried that I would go hungry since I didn’t like Asian food. But the tea caught my attention. I peered over (仔细看) at my dad’s cup. It wasn’t English-style tea. It was clear and almost green. I asked my dad what this tea was. He poured me a cup and encouraged me to try it. I hesitantly (迟疑地) raised the cup and sipped the tea. Then, I drank more, and more, and soon, the cup was empty. Dad explained to me that it was green tea. From that day on, I have never stopped drinking tea. Wherever I sit down at a café or restaurant, I’ll order tea. And I always leave home with a travel cup of tea. My tea collection has become quite large. I love not just green tea but Chinese tea in general. However, I still don’t like English-style tea with milk. I love that tea, like food, is able to bring people together. I love nothing more than having a cup of tea and a chat with friends. I think every home should have pretty teacups for moments when you want to do just that. 9. The writer felt when she saw her dad’s cup of tea. A. hungry B. worried C. excited D. curious 10. The underlined word “sipped” probably means “ ”. A. drank B. watched C. chose D. served 11. What can we infer from Paragraph 5? A. The writer only drinks tea at home. B. The writer has become a tea lover. C. The writer still hates green tea. D. The writer never buys tea online. 12. What is the passage mainly about? A. How to make Chinese green tea. B. How the writer fell in love with tea. C. The best place to enjoy tea with friends. D. The difference between English and Chinese tea. D In January 2025, large wildfires swept through Los Angeles. They took many lives and destroyed thousands of homes. As pictures of the fires spread online, people noticed something strange: some trees were still standing next to burnt-out homes and cars. Some didn’t believe that a fire would leave trees untouched. “Is there a secret attack (袭击) on L.A. homes?” they asked. The truth is simpler. Trees can and do catch fire. But it’s also true that some did not burn. Scientists say there is a good reason for that. It all comes down to water. “It’s pretty easy to understand,” said Miranda Hart, a biology professor. “Trees are filled with thousands of liters of water.” Of course, trees do burn when fires are big and hot enough. But if a tree full of water stands next to something very dry, the dry thing will burn first. The fire may even go around the tree if there is enough dry material on both sides. The type of tree also matters. Some trees catch fire more easily than others. Deciduous (每年落叶的) trees—the kind that lose their leaves every year—are less likely to burn. That’s because their leaves hold more water and they have less resin (树脂), a sticky substance (黏性物质) that burns easily. In comparison, conifers (针叶树) like junipers (刺柏) catch fire much more easily. In Los Angeles, palm trees (棕榈树) are everywhere. They have become a symbol of the city. However, some local fire departments warn against planting too many palms. Without proper care, these trees can become like giant torches (火炬) during wildfires and cause great harm to people and buildings nearby. 13. What strange thing did people notice in the photos? A. Homes were burnt down. B. Many people lost their lives. C. Some trees were still standing. D. The fires spread very fast. 14. According to the passage, which kind of trees catch fireless easily? A. Conifers like junipers. B. Palm trees without proper care. C. Deciduous trees with wet leaves. D. Trees filled with more resin. 15. Which of the following are the reasons why some trees don’t burn easily? ① They are filled with water. ② They grow very fast. ③ They are the right kind of trees. ④ They are taken good care of. A. ①② B. ①③ C. ②④ D. ③④ 16. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain why some trees survived the fires. B. To warn people not to plant trees near homes. C. To show how terrible the fires were. D. To teach how to protect trees from fires. 第二节 阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 Washing clothes is easy for most people living in cities, as washing machines do the job. However, in some rural areas (农村) or poor places, people have to wash their clothes by hand, as they don’t have enough money to buy a washing machine. 17 The machine is a simpler version (版本) of a traditional washing machine. However, it uses the natural flow (流动) of water instead of electricity shaft (转轴) in the centre and a bamboo drum outside. 18 And water will go into the bottom of the machine and make the main drum turn. This makes an eddy (涡流) that cleans clothes. A 7-member team from the School of Design at Dalian Minzu University made the machine. Because of this, they won the “Best of the Best” prize at the 2020 Red Dot Awards (红点奖). Yu Yue, one of these students, said that the best thing about the machine is that it’s cheap and easy to make. “We give people the rotation shaft and teach them how to set up the machine. 19 If there is no bamboo, they can also use materials like wood.” 20 They had many team meetings to change the machine at least four times. But in the end, they were happy with the results. A. You just put the machine in a river. B. The machine is easy to carry and move. C. They can find bamboo and make it into drums. D. The team spent more than half a year working on the machine. E. Now, a new bamboo washing machine might help them solve this problem.

Let’s hear from some middle school students who shared their thoughts. The Great Wall represents China in my eyes. It is about 21,000 kilometres long and over 2,000 years old. It shows how strong and smart China is. There is a famous Chinese saying, “He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man.” ——David I think the loong is the symbol of China. We Chinese always see ourselves as “descendants of the loong (龙的传人)”. It stands for power, strength and good luck. Parents hope we can become as successful as loongs. ——Peter Porcelain (瓷器) is called “china” because it started in China. People like it because it’s not expensive and the colours are bright and beautiful. Different kinds of porcelain show how clever Chinese people are in making beautiful art. ——Nancy In China, dumplings represent (象征) happiness and reunion (团圆). Families in China always get together and make dumplings during festivals. When they make dumplings, they talk and laugh. The food brings them happiness. ——Mike 41. What does David think can be the symbol of China? 42. What does Loong stand for according to Peter? 43. Why do people like porcelain? 44.
