Coming Up with a Story
Even though comic books include mostly pictures, they still tell a story. And just like stories told with only words, the stories in comic books must be planned and worked on.
Many of the stories you read in comic books are first written as scripts. The writer includes many details to help the artist visualize the story before he or she makes the first sketches for the book.

As climate change leads to an increase in natural disasters across China, a small but growing group of people are driving into the center of typhoons(台风) and other storms to take pictures, providing invaluable materials for disaster research. They are called storm chasers(追逐者).Su Dike is such a person.
Last September, when Typhoon Bebinca hit the east of China, most people stayed inside. Yet Su drove from Hangzhou to Shanghai to catch it. His videos show scenes such as broken tree branches, fallen signboards, and damaged roads.
Su's love for storm chasing started when he watched the movie Twister(《龙卷风》) at the age of 10. In 2012, he moved to Hangzhou,where he experienced Typhoon Haikui. Since then, he's been interested in storms. In 2019, he chased Super Typhoon Lekima after his 18th birthday, with his father serving as his driver. Although the first try didn't get great photos, it opened up a new world for him. Now, he chases storms every typhoon season. Su has chased over 300 storms using many special tools, such as a small in-car weather station.
Storm chasing is far from easy. Storms can change direction. Chasers may need to find their way through unknown areas. Cars can get stuck,and storms often move faster than the cars chasing them. Su said he experienced all of these challenges. During one journey, his car was trapped by fallen trees, and he spent a night in the typhoon.
In China, storm chasing is becoming more popular. When Su was in middle school, storm fans used the forum(论坛) Typhoon BBS to exchange information. As typhoons happened more often, the forum gained more attention. After it was shut down, TY Board was created two years ago. Su himself designed its logo and met like-minded people there.
Storm chasing is meaningful. The photos and videos help with research in different fields, such as geography, farming, disaster response, and more. Su and other chasers are using modern technology to better understand nature.
58. What do storm chasers do?
A. They take pictures of storms. B. They volunteer after storms.
C. They study the history of storms. D. They help people during storms.
59. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?

C. The challenges storm chasers face. D. The activities storm chasers take part in.
60. What does the underlined word“it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

61. Put the events about Su Dike's experience into the correct order according to the passage.
a. set up TY Board b. moved to Hangzhou
c. chased Typhoon Bebinca d. watched the film Twister
e. had his first storm-chasing
A. d-b-e-c-a B. d-b-e-a-c C. b-d-e-a-c D. b-e-c-d-a

Streetlights and the future of street lighting are seldom thought about until a power cut throws the world into darkness. When that happens, the value of the lighting systems becomes clear as the world turns into a more dangerous place for walkers and drivers alike.
The story of streetlights began long ago. China might be among the first to create a basic type of streetlight. Around 500 BC, ancient Chinese people used a type of street lamp that used empty bamboo pipes and natural gas to create burning torches(火把). Later, ancient Romans used lamps powered by vegetable oil.
The first public street lighting plan began in 1417, when London took a big step. The Mayor(市长) of London gave an order to make people hang lanterns(灯笼) outside their homes during the winter months. This early effort to light up the streets marked the beginning of organized public street lighting, an idea that would change cities across the world.
Fast-forward four centuries to the 1800s, when Baltimore became the first American city to widely put up gas streetlights on poles. This was a big step forward in city lighting. In 1878, Paris began using the first widely-used electric streetlights: arc lamps(弧光灯). However, the arc lamps proved to be so harsh that the public couldn't even open their eyes under them. Although thousands were set up in Paris and across the US,their popularity was short-lived.
Everything changed in 1879 with the invention of a softer light bulb(灯泡). It quickly took the place of arc lamps and became the new standard. Later, in the 1900s, yellow sodium lamps(钠灯) became the most common streetlights. Today, energy-saving LED lights are taking over because they last longer and use less power.
From bamboo torches to LED lights, street lighting has come a long way. With new technology, our nights will keep getting brighter and safer!
63. How does the writer lead into the topic?
A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question.
C. By describing a situation. D. By introducing an object.
64. What does the underlined word“harsh” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Small. B. Unpleasant. C. Popular. D. Expensive.
65.Match the following lights with their descriptions.
①bamboo torches
②arc lamps
③LED lights
④Roman lamps
a. use vegetable oil
b. save energy and work for a long time
c. use very bright light, but are used for a short time
d. use natural gas and bamboo
A.①-d;②-b;③-c;④-a B.①-a;②-c;③-b;④-d
C.①-a;②-b;③-c;④-d D.①-d;②-c;③-b;④-a
66. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The invention of the light bulb made are lamps popular.
B. Gas streetlights were the favorite type of lights in the past.
C. Street lighting was first introduced to improve transportation systems.
D. Science and technology have helped make streetlights better.
67.What would be the best structure of the passage?
D
Have you ever thought that broken things are useless? There is a special art called kintsugi that finds beauty in broken objects. The word kintsugi comes from two words: kin means“gold” and tsugi means“joining”. It is a traditional method of repairing broken pottery(陶器)by using lacquer(漆) mixed with gold or silver.It is said that when a bowl was repaired with metal staples(U 型钉), a shogun(将军) felt disappointed. He wanted something more beautiful.This led artists to develop kintsugi. It has turned broken pottery into beautiful works of art.
Repairing pottery with kintsugi takes patience and skill. First, the broken pieces are carefully cleaned. Then, small cuts are made on the
sides of the broken pieces to help them stick together. After that, the pieces are joined with a natural glue made of wheat flour, water, and lacquer. Once the clay object dries completely, the lines are filled with lacquer mixed with powdered gold. These golden lines make the clay object more special than it was before.
Just like pottery, people also experience breaks in life. Challenges and failures may leave scars(伤疤) within us, but these scars can also help us grow. These scars tell stories of strength and recovery, making us special. Through kintsugi, artists remind us to see difficulties as chances to rebuild and improve. The slow process of kintsugi also inspires us to treat ourselves with care and patience. Life's challenges take time to heal, but with effort, we can become stronger and more beautiful.
68. What does the word“kintsugi” mean?
A. A special art. B. Metal pieces. C. Gold joining. D. Broken pottery.
69. Why was the art of kintsugi invented according to Paragraph 2?
A. To make pottery stronger. B. To avoid wasting pottery pieces.
C. To fix pottery using better materials. D. To meet a shogun's artistic expectation.
70. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. The necessary tools for kintsugi repair. B. The process of kintsugi pottery repair.
C. The importance of golden repair lines. D. The challenges of repairing broken pottery.
71. Which action follows the kintsugi spirit? Check and choose the right answer.
①hiding mistakes to look perfect
②fixing a broken friendship with honesty
③learning lessons from losing a competition
④fixing a chair instead of buying a new one
⑤givIng up after failing an English examination
A.①②③ B.②③④ C.③④⑤ D.①④⑤
72. What would be the best title for the passage?

Homework has always been a hot topic. People argue about whether students should do homework, and how much they should do.73. For example, in ancient Rome, people were asked to practice speeches at home. In the 19th century, German students had tasks to do outside school. Later, this idea spread to the US.
74. So, California even stopped homework for students under15 during the early 20th century. However, in the 1950s, during the Cold War, people began to support homework again. They wanted the US to compete with the Soviet Union(苏联) in education and technology.
There is a famous rule for homework: the 10-minute rule.75. For example, first-graders should have 10 minutes of homework, while twelfth-graders can have about 120 minutes.
Homework has advantages and disadvantages.76. It also develops good study habits and life skills like time management, and enables parents to take part in their kids’ education.77_____________There are a lot of stress and health problems among children with too much homework. Research suggests that, for younger students, homework might not be very useful for improving grades.
In a word, whether homework is good or not depends on how much and what kind of homework is given. What do you think about homework?
A. The idea of homework is very old.
B. There used to be no homework in the US.
C. However, too much homework can lead to problems.
D. The more homework children have, the better they perform.
E. Some people believed that homework was bad for children's health.
F. According to this rule, students should have 10 minutes of homework per day.
G. Advantages include helping students perform well on tests and achieve better grades.

本题要求判断作者如何引入路灯这一主题,属于写作手法分析题。
寻线索
首段:人们很少会去思考街灯及其未来的发展,直到停电使世界陷入黑暗之中。在那时,照明系统的重要性才会变得显而易见,因为世界会变成一个对行人和司机来说更加危险的地方。

故选C。
64 B 【解析】词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“However,the are lamps proved to be so harsh that the public couldn't even open their eyes under them”可知,弧光灯的光非常刺眼,以至于人们无法睁开眼睛。因此,画线词“harsh”意为“不舒服的”,与“unpleasant”同义。故选B。
65 D【解析】信息匹配题。
①bamboo torches|
根据第二段中的“Around 500 BC, ancient Chinese people used a type of street lamp that used empty bamboo pipes and natural gas to create burning torches (火把)”可知,竹火把使用天然气和竹管制成,故匹配d。
②arc lamps
根据第四段中的“However, the arc lamps proved to be so harsh that the public couldn't even open their eyes under them. Although thousands were set up . .. their popularity was short-lived”可知,弧光灯光线非常明亮但被使用的时间短,故匹配c。

正确匹配为:①-d;②-c;③-b;④-a。故选D。
66 D 【解析】推理判断题。本文主要介绍了街灯的历史发展及其未来趋势,从早期的竹火把到现代的节能LED灯,街灯经历了多次技术革新。根据最后一段中的“From bamboo torches to LED lights, street lighting has come a long way. With new technology, our nights will keep getting brighter and safer!”可推知,科学技术的发展让夜晚更明亮、更安全。故选D。

【D短文大意】本文介绍了传统金缮工艺及其象征的接纳残缺、化缺为美的人生哲理。
68 C 【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“The word kintsugi comes from two words: kin means‘gold’ and tsugi means‘joining’”可知,kintsugi由“金”(kin)与“连接”(tsugi)组成,意为“金色的连接”。故选 C。

70 B 【解析】段落大意题。第三段的内容围绕金缮修复陶器的方法展开,详细介绍了从清洁碎片到最终用金漆填充裂痕的具体步骤:第一步是仔细清洁破碎的陶器碎片,然后在陶器碎片的侧面开小口,帮助它们粘合在一起,接着用由小麦粉、水和漆制成的天然胶水将碎片粘合在一起,最后经过完全干燥后,用混合了金粉的漆填充裂痕。“First... Then... After that……”提示了步骤。故选B。
71 B 【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Challenges and failures... scars tell stories of strength... see difficulties as chances to rebuild... treat ourselves with care and patience...become stronger and more beautiful”可知,金缮精神强调接纳缺陷并赋予新价值。故选B。
72 A 【解析】标题归纳题。解题步骤如下:
抓取全文核心
文章通过金缮工艺传递双重主题:
表层:传统修复技术(物理层面的残缺美化)
深层:人生哲理(接纳伤痕,化挫折为成长契机)
关键句:“These golden lines make the clay object more special than it was before”和“These scars tell stories of strength... see difficulties as chances to rebuild and improve”
选项逐项对比
A. The Beauty of Imperfection(不完美之美)
Imperfection 既指陶器裂痕(物理残缺),又喻人生挫折(精神伤痕), Beauty 对应金缮工艺的修复美学与哲理升华,体现“残缺中创造价值”的核心思想。
B. Discovering the Art of Lacquer( 发现漆艺)
偏离重点。漆仅为金缮工艺的材料之一,非文章核心。
C. Golden Lines and Their Meaning(金线及其意义)
局限细节。金线是修复结果的视觉特征,属于工艺细节。
D. Development of Artistic Pottery Repair(艺术陶器修复的发展)
片面且误导读者。文章未讨论金缮工艺的发展历程,仅说明其起源与工艺步骤。
定答案
故选 A。
【B)短文大意】本文探讨家庭作业的争议性与历史演变,分析其利弊,并提出适量、适度的家庭作业可能更合理。

77 C 【解析】设空后提到学生有太多家庭作业可能导致压力和健康问题。C选项(然而,过多的家庭作业会导致问题)通过“However”实现本段论述的转折,转折总结了家庭作业的弊端,与设空后内容呼应。disadvantages为关键词。

Technology for a Better Life
Technology has brought great changes to our daily lives. I designed a simple invention to help students remember their homework.
Many students often forget to do their homework. My solution is a“Homework Reminder Board”.(要点 1) It's just a small whiteboard with colorful stickers. Every day after school, students can stick their homework notes on it using different-colored stickers —— red for math,blue for English, etc.(要点2) The hardest part was making sure the board wasn't too big for school bags. I tried many sizes before finding the perfect one. Now it fits easily in any bag! (要点3)
This simple invention helps students stay organized. Best of all, it doesn't need any batteries or technology —— just a good memory habit.
