It keeps our bodies working in a right order. But do you know that drinking too much water can poison (使……中毒) you? Water intoxication (中毒) may happen when people drink water more than 5,000 ml in a short time. This will make the number of sodium (钠) in their blood in a dangerous situation. When people have too little sodium in their bodies, serious problems will come to them. They may get a headache, feel very tired and even fall down. Staying away from water intoxication may seem easy — just don’t drink too much water. In some situations, it is easier said than done. For example, after we do some heavy exercise, we may want to drink a lot of water. It is important to balance the amount of water you drink with the amount of water your body is losing. So how much water should a person drink each day? We are told to drink about 2,500 ml water a day. But in fact, the real amount needed is different for each person. You should drink water whenever you want to drink. Make sure you take the right amount of water each day — staying healthy is all about staying balanced! 56. How does the writer begin the text? A.

It started over 3,000 years ago in the Shang Dynasty, when people wrote on animal bones. Over centuries, the appearance of different writing styles, such as Regular Script (Kaishu), Running Script (Xingshu) and Cursive Script (Caoshu), brought life to Chinese calligraphy. Wang Xizhi was good at all these styles and is seen as the greatest calligrapher in Chinese history. Today, Chinese calligraphy shows the beauty of Eastern culture. When people talk about Chinese culture, the first thing that comes into their mind is Chinese calligraphy. As China’s influence grows, over 200 million people around the world, not just the Chinese, are learning the language. To meet their interest and curiosity in Chinese culture, they start to find out and learn about Chinese calligraphy. At the University of Melbourne, students from many nations join the Chinese Calligraphy Club to share their-interests in this art. And in early 2026, a special exhibition in Los Angeles showed 60 Chinese calligraphy works, and many local young people lined up to try writing with a brush for the first time. However, it’s not easy to learn calligraphy. First, you need lots of patience and concentration (专注). Calligraphy needs you to practice each stroke many times. Some people might feel bored after practicing for a while and give up halfway. While practicing, you must stay focused and pay no attention to the world around. Also, the structure of Chinese characters might be difficult. Each character is made up of different strokes that must be written in the right order. For someone who is not familiar with Chinese, the characters can look like strange pictures and be hard to understand. Calligraphy is far more than a writing skill. It speaks of our long history. It shows the wisdom of ancient Chinese people. They thought about life and nature and their ideas about balance, patience, and beauty live on in every stroke. Through calligraphy, we get a deeper view of the rich world of Chinese culture.

That’s why this area is called “Tornado Alley”. The “tornado season” is usually in spring, but the people in Tornado Alley are always ready for them and they always listen to the news. When the warnings come, people follow their disaster plans. They find somewhere safe to stay. At home, the best place is the basement — a room that is used to store things under the level of the ground. If there is no basement, a room without windows like the bathroom is also a safe place. “At school, we often have tornado drills so that we can get ready and won’t feel afraid when there’s a tornado,” says Tiffany Taylor, a high school student from Texas. “There’s no basement at my school, so we usually go to the hallways on the lowest floors. Of course, we never sit near the windows.” After the tornado, people first check to see if it is safe to go out, and then they check the buildings and the area. And usually many buildings fall down and broken things are everywhere! In China, we are not so often troubled by tornadoes, but we do have disasters like earthquakes, or an unexpected fire. It is important to know how to keep us safe when a disaster happens. Always remember to get well prepared. 81. Why does “Tornado Alley” get its name? 82. What do people do when they hear a tornado warning? 83. How is the tornado area after the tornado passes? 84. What is the key to staying safe in natural disasters from the passage? 85. What will you do to keep yourself safe if an earthquake suddenly happens in your classroom? 四、书面表达。（计15分） 如今，压力已成为社会中普遍存在的一个问题，同学们在成长过程中总会面临各种各样的压力。为了更好地发现并解决问题，你校将举办一场以“Manage Your Stress, Shape Your Life”为主题的英语演讲活动。请根据下方提示内容撰写一篇演讲稿。 Manage Your Stress, Shape Your Life Reasons for stress Ways to improve Your opinion 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
