Students in different grades will go to the dining hall at different time. The following table will be used from September of this year to June of next year. Please write down the time when you can go for lunch. Wearing a watch will help! You are not allowed to take your mobile phones. Central Middle School Dining Hall Sep, 2024—Nov, 2024 Dec, 2024—Jan, 2025 Mar, 2025—June, 2025 11:40 a.m. Grade 7 Grade 8 Grade 9 11:50 a.m. Grade 8 Grade 9 Grade 7 12:00 a.m. Grade 9 Grade 7 Grade 8 In order to create a quiet environment in the dining hall, please follow these rules: ◆Please do not cut in line. ◆Please do not push or shout at others at any time. ◆Please take all cutlery (餐具) and litter to the correct place. 1.

A. notice B. letter C. email D. story B Sarah often helped out at her dad’s restaurant, but today felt different—she was given the responsibility of serving customers. Excited, yet nervous, she carefully carried a dish to Table 6. Her excitement quickly turned to anxiety (焦虑) when she saw Kassy, a popular girl from school, sitting there with her friends. Feeling shy and afraid, Sarah hid behind the front desk to avoid being seen. Sarah often felt out of place among her wealthy classmates. She remembered how Kassy used to make fun of her and worried that others might do the same to her for working at a restaurant. When Sarah’s dad found her hiding, she didn’t know what to say. He suggested that she take a break. Turning back to the kitchen, Sarah felt bad for letting her dad down. To her surprise, Hannah, one of Kassy’s friends, came over and said that she knew how mean Kassy could be. She also praised Sarah for her hard work. Her words gave Sarah the courage she needed. With confidence, Sarah returned to the dining area and brought the bill to Kassy’s table. When Kassy tried to make fun of her, Sarah and Hannah did a silly “crab dance” and laughed together. As she crossed the dining room, Sarah realized she didn’t feel embarrassed. Whether Kassy liked her family’s restaurant or not, it didn’t matter. As Sarah returned to the front desk, she felt a warm sense of pride, knowing the restaurant was special to her, no matter what others thought. She understood that hard work and kindness were what really mattered. From then on, she started to enjoy her new role with confidence and pride. 5. The underlined words “out of place” in Paragraph 2 probably mean ________. A. angry B. happy C. helpful D. uncomfortable 6. How did Hannah treat Sarah? A. She praised Sarah. B. She made fun of Sarah. C. She helped her serve. D. She asked Sarah to dance. 7. How did Sarah feel after doing the “crab dance” with Hannah? A. She was angry with Kassy. B. She felt more embarrassed. C. She no longer felt embarrassed. D. She still felt worried about Kassy. 8. What can we learn from Sarah’s experience? A. Be yourself, no matter what others think. B. The support of family is always important. C. It’s difficult to get on well with classmates. D. We should care more about others’ opinions. C How fast can someone climb 15 meters—the height of a five-floor building? The answer from Chinese speed climber Cao Long is 4.98 seconds. The 23-year-old is the third person to have finished the speed climbing route (竞速攀岩路线) in less than 5 seconds. The other two are Indonesian athletes Kiromal Katibin and Veddriq Leonardo. People call Cao the “fastest man in China” or “Chinese Spider-Man”. According to Cao, the result of speed climbing can change every time because it’s a highly stressful race where two climbers compete at the same time. It’s also a sport that finishes in seconds. If you want to succeed, everything has to be perfect. But this pressure is part of the reason why Cao loves the sport. “The pressure of competing side by side with another climber really excites me.” he said. “And I do enjoy the feeling when the result of a climb is faster than my personal best.” Cao tried climbing at the age of 8. When he first got into climbing, Cao was mainly practicing bouldering (抱石攀岩) and lead climbing (先锋攀岩) and was doing very well. However, he got wounded and had an operation (手术) when he was 18．He then decided to try speed climbing because it uses different skills and puts less pressure on his body. Cao is great at speed climbing as well, even though he thinks he is hardly the strongest athlete. He understands how to use his body to win. “I know how to better distribute (分配) power to different parts of my body.” Cao said. In his eyes, the national record of 4.98 seconds has become a thing of the past. “I’ll keep trying to do better and go further.” said Cao. 9. How does the writer start the text? A. By telling a story. B. By asking a question. C. By sharing an idea. D. By giving an example. 10. The second paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. rules of speed climbing B. Cao’s love for speed climbing C. the importance of speed climbing D. training methods for speed climbing 11. Cao Long chose speed climbing because he ________. A. was more excited about speed climbing B. was not good at other kinds of climbing C. got wounded and it was easier on his body D. wanted to challenge himself in a new field 12. Which can be the best title for the text? A. The World of Speed Climbing B. How to Be a Great Speed Climber C. Speed Climbing: A Challenging Sport D. Cao Long—The Fastest Man in China D Have you ever wondered if you see the same colors as other people? Most people know what blue is when they see it. They see the color and call it “blue” because they were taught the word and connected it with what they saw. But how do you know what you see as blue isn’t someone else’s red? The ability to see colors depends on the receptors (感受器) in our eyes. Light waves hit these receptors which will send information to the brain. The brain then deals with the information to make sure which color light the eyes are receiving. Some people’s receptors are more developed than others’. People with weaker receptors usually have color blindness. That the receptor can’t translate the light waves correctly means some people cannot tell different shades (色度) of a color. In the past, most scientists argued that everyone saw colors in the same way. However, research was done on monkeys. They were injected (注射) with a virus (病毒) to influence their receptors. This made them understand more about colors than usual and brought an interesting discovery. Normally, monkeys could only see blue and green, but the virus allowed monkeys to see red. Their brains were made to be able to understand new colors, which might mean the brains are not instinctive (本能的) to understand which color is which. This shows that our brains may get used to new information depending on what they receive during the development. Color could be a very personal experience to everyone. So, the next time you talk about your favorite color, just remember if yours is blue and your friend says red, you might be talking about the same color. What if everyone in the world likes the same color, but just uses different names for it? 13. What decides a person’s ability to see colors? A. The brain’s instinct. B. The color of light waves. C. The names of colors. D. The receptors in the eyes. 14. The underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refers to the ________. A. receptor B. research C. injection D. argument 15. From the research on monkeys, we can infer ________. A. monkeys’ brains are the same as humans’ B. humans can only see blue and green without virus C. the brain’s understanding of colors can be changed D. the virus makes monkeys see all colors in the world 16. What is the main idea of the text? A. To introduce how monkeys see colors. B. To explain why people are color blind. C. To show seeing colors can be different. D. To tell why people like different colors. 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。 What is life’s greatest gift? It is choice.

We often dream of achieving great success, but sometimes we forget that small efforts can lead to big changes. Last year, I decided to improve my English by memorizing just five new words every day. It seemed very little, but after a few months, my vocabulary grew a lot. I could read articles more easily and my grades improved. This experience taught me that tiny daily efforts make a huge difference. Also, I started walking for 20 minutes each morning. Now I feel more energetic and healthier than before. So let’s not look down on small steps. Keep going, and you will be amazed by the progress you make! Thank you for listening! 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
