He suffered a serious brain injury and went into a coma (昏迷). Doctors were not hopeful that he would get better. Liu’s mother refused to give up on him. When she heard some doctors say familiar sounds might help, she started playing recordings of his school bell and morning exercise music for her son. Liu’s teacher also organised his classmates to make videos for him. In the videos, children call out Liu’s name, share classroom jokes, and sing his favourite songs. “Please wake up. We miss you,” the children all say. Liu’s mother played these videos again and again. After weeks of silence, something amazing happened. On the 45th day, Liu opened his eyes for the first time. Then, on the 51st day, he smiled with his eyes closed when he heard a recording of his teacher’s lesson! That moment filled his family with joy and hope. Finally, on the 55th day, Liu woke up! His teacher rushed to tell his classmates the good news. Everyone cheered and celebrated. Liu’s mother thanked everyone for their help. This story is more than a medical wonder.

These scientists explore ancient places and artefacts (文物) hidden under the sea. Throughout history, lots of artefacts have been lost underwater. Because of the limits of the human body and technology, the ocean floor remains largely unexplored. That’s why we need underwater archaeologists. On Pingtan Island in Fujian province, there’s a training centre for future underwater archaeologists. Students from all over China come here to learn how to protect and study artefacts which are discovered underwater. The training is tough. It requires years of hard work and practice. Right now, there are fewer than 200 underwater archaeologists in China. Underwater work, like many outdoor activities, depends greatly on the weather. The best time for underwater work is from May to November, because sea conditions are good during that period. However, this is also the typhoon (台风) season. Underwater archaeologists need to be patient and wait for the right moments. In 1987, a sunken ship named Nanhai One was discovered in the South China Sea. At that time, Chinese archaeologists were not fully prepared for the excavation (发掘). Later, Cui Yong, an underwater archaeologist, played a key role in the project. The ship, carrying over 180,000 artefacts, went down about 800 years ago while travelling from Quanzhou in China to the Indian Ocean. This makes it a key piece of evidence (证据) for studying the Maritime Silk Road (海上丝绸之路) and research on it has continued ever since. Now, underwater archaeology has developed greatly in China. Thanks to archaeologists like Cui, forgotten stories can now be brought to light again. 1．What is the main task of underwater archaeologists? A．To study ancient sea animals. B．To build new ships for sea travel. C．To teach people to stay underwater. D．To explore hidden underwater artefacts. 2．What does the underlined word “tough” most probably mean in English? A．Interesting. B．Challenging. C．Encouraging. D．Impossible. 3．Which of the following greatly influences underwater work? A．The number of archaeologists. B．The experience of the workers. C．The weather and sea conditions. D．The plants and animals in the sea. 4．Why is Nanhai One an important discovery? A．It was the largest ship ever built 800 years ago. B．It carried treasures from many different countries. C．It was the first ship discovered in the South China Sea. D．It offers key information for studying the Maritime Silk Road. 5．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Underwater archaeology in China B．Training of underwater archaeologists C．The life of an underwater archaeologist D．The surprising discovery of Nanhai One Caves are dark, quiet, and mysterious places. But did you know they are also like time machines? They can show us what the world was like thousands of years ago. In many caves around the world, people have found ancient paintings on the walls. These paintings are often of animals like bison (野牛), horses and deer. They were painted by people who lived a long, long time ago. Scientists believe these paintings were not just for decoration. They might have been part of special ceremonies (仪式) or a way to tell stories. Besides paintings, caves keep other secrets. The floor of a cave is like a history book. Over thousands of years, dirt and sand build up in rock layers (岩层). In these layers, scientists can find old bones, tools, and even seeds. By studying these things, they can learn what animals lived there and what people ate. Some of the most famous cave paintings are in Lascaux, France. They are over 17,000 years old! To protect them, the caves are now closed to the public. But scientists have built a copy nearby so visitors can still see the amazing art.

Xia Rongjun once cooked for China’s Antarctic expedition (考察) team at Zhongshan Station from 1998 to 1999. He cooked for about 200 people every day, making over 40 different Chinese dishes like meats, noodles and soups. The delicious smells from his cooking could go very far away. Sometimes, even foreign (外国的) expedition teams wanted to try his food. Xia made sure the meals were healthy by working with a doctor. They used health check data (数据) to plan the meals and help the team stay strong. During the winter in Antarctica, there might be no sunlight for many days. Some team members easily felt sad and tired. To cheer them up, Xia invited (邀请) team members from different parts of China to cook their favorite hometown dishes. This made everyone happy and brought them together. They made dishes like Beijing hot pot and snacks from Xiamen. The team enjoyed these meals so much. This fun cooking way not only fed them but also warmed their hearts. About one year later, when Xia was about to return to our country, the new station leader, Liu Shuyan, brought fresh fruits and vegetables to the team. He was surprised by the team’s physical condition—the best of all earlier expedition teams.

A．How to Stay Safe in Bad Weather B．How to Keep Healthy in Cold Places C．He Warmed Hearts with Food in the Cold D．He Explored Antarctica with Scientific Research 进阶拓展训练5篇 World Laughter Day is a special day when people all over the world come together to laugh. Although this day sounds a little silly (傻的), there is a serious (严肃的) reason behind it. This day happens on the first Sunday of May every year. It was started by Dr. Madan Kataria, a doctor from India,in 1998. Its goal is to achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. Dr. Kataria encouraged people to join laughter groups where they could meet up and laugh in public. More than 12,000 people came to the first event, and since then it has caught on around the world. Nobody knows for sure why people laugh, but all human cultures have laughter. Even babies laugh before they can talk! Dr. Kataria found that when people fake (假装) laughing, it often causes real laughter. “Our body doesn’t know the difference between acting happy and being really happy, so we can fake laughing until the laughter comes naturally,” he said. On World Laughter Day, lots of people meet up in parks or squares to laugh together. They do Laughter Yoga, a kind of exercise that mixes (结合) laughing and deep breathing. There may also be music and dancing. They even have competitions to see who has the best laugh. If you can’t find a Laughter Day event near you, why not set up your own with friends and family? Or, you could watch a funny movie to join in the fun. Remember, the spirit of World Laughter Day is all about bringing joy and laughter into every day of the year. 1．What’s the goal of World Laughter Day?

The 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala was broadcast around the world on Chinese New Year’s Eve. One wonderful cultural show was called Ode to the Flower Gods (贺花神). It got its idea from the White Jade Twelve-Month Pendants (白玉十二生肖挂件) in the Palace Museum. The show beautifully mixes twelve months, twelve flowers, and twelve famous historical figures into one poetic program. It shows the beauty of traditional Chinese culture and tells us how flowers can stand for great qualities and valuable ideas. The show is special because each flower is matched with a person who has a similar spirit. Among them are seven great writers, such as Lin Bu, Lu You, Zhou Dunyi, Xu Wei, Tao Yuanming, Li Qingzhao and Bai Juyi. Their good qualities are just like the meanings of plum blossoms (梅花), apricot blossoms (杏花), lotuses (荷花), hollyhocks (蜀葵), chrysanthemums (菊花), sweet osmanthus (桂花) and camellias (山茶花). The show also includes four famous women: Xi Furen, Yang Yuhuan, Wang Zhaojun and LuoShen. They are connected with peach blossoms, peonies, cotton roses and daffodils. Zhang Qian, who brought pomegranates (石榴) to China, shows the brave spirit of the pomegranate flower. In this way, the show changes the old idea that only women can be flower gods. It fully shows the traditional Chinese idea of “finding virtues in flowers”. With the help of advanced AIGC technology, the show brings real performers and digital pictures together perfectly. On the stage, the twelve jade pendants finally form a full circle, which stands for the cycle of time and the beauty of harmony. Ode to the Flower Gods is more than a great artistic show; it helps people feel closer to their own culture through lively symbols. It keeps traditional culture alive in the digital age and shows the spirit of Chinese civilization with soft but strong cultural confidence. 1．What is the passage mainly about? A．The history of flowers in Chinese culture. B．A special cultural show at the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. C．Famous historical figures in Chinese history.

A study shows that more than 80% of children choose jobs they often see around them, like doctors and teachers, with teachers topping the list of kids’ dream jobs. But jobs such as cartoonists appear in less than 7% of their answers. We often overlook jobs hidden outside our daily lives. ②Choosing a career is crucial (至关重要的) because it will be a big part of your life. If you don’t enjoy your job, your life won’t be as happy as you wish it to be. Try looking into different possibilities! Your dream job might be something you’ve never heard of before. ③How can you start? First, think about your interests and strengths. This will help shape your future job. If numbers excite you, maybe you can be a scientist. If storytelling comes naturally, then writing or filmmaking could be your choice. And remember to talk to your parents, teachers and friends. They can share ideas about different jobs. ④Also, think about future trends (趋势). Many jobs today, like web developers, weren’t around 50 years ago. New jobs like AI ethics advisors might appear when you grow up. As a result, besides learning subjects, you should also try to improve your creativity and critical thinking (批判思维). ⑤ In all, it’s no use just planning without acting.

Put on a happy face. Compared to unhappy people, those who are happy are less likely (可能的) to suffer from colds, according to a new study. “It’s possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses,” said the researchers from New York University. “It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness,” said the study’s leader (首席) researcher Sheldon Cohen. In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were happy and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill. In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers about the happy or sad feelings they had that day. After two weeks, the people were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for seven days. The result showed that everyone in the study was equally (同等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research time, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time. Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may make a kind of thing in the body that helps fight illness. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often. 1．According to the study, who is less likely to suffer from colds? A．People who are happy. B．People who are unhappy. C．People who exercise more. D．People who often try new things. 2．What does the underlined word “interviewed” probably mean? A．Shut…away. B．Pushed…hard. C．Asked…questions.

D．Happy people got less sick and got well faster. 5．What does the writer want to tell us through the text? A．There is a new study about health. B．A new kind of medicine can treat colds. C．Positive feelings may help us stay healthier. D．We should pay attention to our daily feelings. 能力综合实践5篇 Today, teamwork is important in many fields (领域). Most people think the best way to build a great team is to bring together the most talented people. For example, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg once said one great engineer is as useful as a hundred common ones. Do you think this is always true? Can more talents always help us do better? Animal scientist William Muir did an experiment with chickens. He chose some strong chickens that could lay many eggs. He kept them for a long time and made them Group A．He also used some common chickens as Group B．But the result was surprising. Chickens in Group A laid fewer eggs than those in Group B．They used too much energy competing (竞争) with each other. So they had little energy left to lay eggs. This finding made scientists interested in studying teams. They did some studies on three sports: football, basketball and baseball. In football and basketball, teams worked better when there were some excellent players. But when more than 70% of the players were very good, the team did not do better. In fact, it did worse. However, things were different in baseball. More excellent players still made the team work better. There are two reasons for this. First, in football and basketball, players must work together very well. If there are too many great players, they may care more about themselves than the team. This makes the team do worse. Second, when there are many great people in a group, some players may rely on (依赖) other teammates too much and not work hard. In the end, it is not easy to build a great team just by choosing great members. We need a good balance. We need some excellent members. We also need good cooperation and strong teamwork. If we work together and try our best, we can turn our strength into real success. 1．How does the writer lead in the topic? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By listing numbers. D．By showing pictures. 2．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Animal scientists. B．All the chickens. C．Chickens in Group A． D．Chickens in Group B． 3．What do studies on sports show? A．Too many excellent players may make the team do worse. B．Basketball players do not have to work together very well. C．Baseball players care more about themselves than the team. D．Football teams should have more than 70% of excellent players. 4．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Teamwork in Sports B．How to Build a Great Team C．The More Talents, the Better D．An Experiment with Chickens ①Teaching children to help others is one of the most valuable lessons. Why? ②Encouraging children to help others can make them kind and empathetic (有同理心的). So they are good at understanding and cooperating with others. As a result, they are more likely to build stronger and more meaningful relationships. When children help others, they can also develop a sense of achievement and responsibility. This encourages them to be helpful. ③There are many ways to get children to practise kindness. They can start learning to help at home by doing chores. For example, after finishing the meal, they can be asked to help clean up the table. It teaches them that being part of a family means sharing responsibilities.       ④Schools also provide children with the chance to help their peers in various ways. They can help by sharing stationery (文具), offering learning support, or simply by inviting a classmate to join in a game. The acts of kindness help them build friendships. ⑤What’s more, it is necessary to teach children to care for the environment. Encourage them to do little things, such as picking up plastic bottles in parks, planting trees, or saving water. And tell them that they can also help by spreading ideas on green living. For example, they can start a conversation about reducing waste with their friends. ⑥In short, when children learn to help, they first become better people themselves. Then, through their actions, they can make the whole world a better place. 1．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．What children can gain from helping others. B．How children learn to cooperate with others. C．Why it is necessary to build good relationships. D．Where children can practise kindness in everyday life. 2．Why does the writer suggest children first learn to help with chores? A．They can improve their life skills by doing chores. B．They will feel a strong sense of achievement. C．It teaches them to be helpful and responsible. D．It is a good way to make their parents happy. 3．What does the underlined word “various” most probably mean? A．Different. B．Interesting. C．Special. D．Strange. 4．How is the text organised? A． B． C． D． Nowadays, many teenagers don’t like to do housework at home. They always depend on their parents to do everything for them. But doing housework is very important for teenagers. First, doing housework can help teenagers learn to be independent. If teenagers do some housework, they will know how to look after themselves when they live alone in the future.

If teenagers help them with housework, parents will feel very warm and relaxed. Third, doing housework is also a kind of exercise. It can make teenagers’ bodies stronger and healthier. In fact, doing housework is not a chore, it’s a kind of responsibility. Every family member should share the housework. As teenagers, we should start with small things, like tidying up our rooms, taking out the rubbish and doing the dishes.

It is also one of the most interesting sights of Taganai Park in Russia. Different from other rivers, it is filled with rocks and stones. Not a drop of water can be seen. Interestingly, as one comes near to the rocky river, the sound of running water can be heard. The Big Stone River is about 6 km long and is made up of many small rocky rivers. It cuts through a thick forest like a real river. It is about 200 metres wide and in some places, it is up to 700 metres wide. Some of the rocks weigh up to 10 tons each and the layer(层) of rocks goes down 6 metres deep. Scientists believe it was formed by the movement of glaciers (冰川) about 10,000 years ago. At that time, thick ice covered the top of the mountains. Over time, as the climate warmed and the glaciers melted (融化), the flowing water and ice carried and deposited (使沉积) these huge rocks, creating the stone river we see today. Seeing the amazing river is a great experience. The best way to experience this natural wonder is from above. Come and visit it when you come to Russia. 1．Why is the Big Stone River special? A．Because it is full of fish. B．Because it is in Taganai Park. C．Because it is impossible to see water there.

In November 2025, an 8-year-old boy, Liu, got badly hurt in a car accident. He suffered a serious brain injury and went into a coma (昏迷). Doctors were not hopeful that he would get better. Liu’s mother refused to give up on him. When she heard some doctors say familiar sounds might help, she started playing recordings of his school bell and morning exercise music for her son. Liu’s teacher also organised his classmates to make videos for him. In the videos, children call out Liu’s name, share classroom jokes, and sing his favourite songs. “Please wake up. We miss you,” the children all say. Liu’s mother played these videos again and again. After weeks of silence, something amazing happened. On the 45th day, Liu opened his eyes for the first time. Then, on the 51st day, he smiled with his eyes closed when he heard a recording of his teacher’s lesson! That moment filled his family with joy and hope. Finally, on the 55th day, Liu woke up! His teacher rushed to tell his classmates the good news. Everyone cheered and celebrated. Liu’s mother thanked everyone for their help. This story is more than a medical wonder. It is about a mother’s love that never fades (褪色), and the sound of friendship that can reach even the deepest sleep, guiding a “lost” child back home. 1．What was the main challenge Liu faced after the accident?

It is about a mother’s love that never fades, and the sound of friendship that can reach even the deepest sleep, guiding a ‘lost’ child back home.”，说明文章想传递爱与友谊的巨大力量。 Have you ever heard of underwater archaeologists? These scientists explore ancient places and artefacts (文物) hidden under the sea. Throughout history, lots of artefacts have been lost underwater. Because of the limits of the human body and technology, the ocean floor remains largely unexplored. That’s why we need underwater archaeologists. On Pingtan Island in Fujian province, there’s a training centre for future underwater archaeologists. Students from all over China come here to learn how to protect and study artefacts which are discovered underwater. The training is tough. It requires years of hard work and practice. Right now, there are fewer than 200 underwater archaeologists in China. Underwater work, like many outdoor activities, depends greatly on the weather. The best time for underwater work is from May to November, because sea conditions are good during that period. However, this is also the typhoon (台风) season. Underwater archaeologists need to be patient and wait for the right moments. In 1987, a sunken ship named Nanhai One was discovered in the South China Sea. At that time, Chinese archaeologists were not fully prepared for the excavation (发掘). Later, Cui Yong, an underwater archaeologist, played a key role in the project. The ship, carrying over 180,000 artefacts, went down about 800 years ago while travelling from Quanzhou in China to the Indian Ocean. This makes it a key piece of evidence (证据) for studying the Maritime Silk Road (海上丝绸之路) and research on it has continued ever since. Now, underwater archaeology has developed greatly in China. Thanks to archaeologists like Cui, forgotten stories can now be brought to light again. 1．What is the main task of underwater archaeologists? A．To study ancient sea animals. B．To build new ships for sea travel. C．To teach people to stay underwater. D．To explore hidden underwater artefacts. 2．What does the underlined word “tough” most probably mean in English? A．Interesting. B．Challenging. C．Encouraging. D．Impossible. 3．Which of the following greatly influences underwater work? A．The number of archaeologists. B．The experience of the workers. C．The weather and sea conditions. D．The plants and animals in the sea. 4．Why is Nanhai One an important discovery? A．It was the largest ship ever built 800 years ago. B．It carried treasures from many different countries. C．It was the first ship discovered in the South China Sea. D．It offers key information for studying the Maritime Silk Road. 5．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Underwater archaeology in China B．Training of underwater archaeologists C．The life of an underwater archaeologist D．The surprising discovery of Nanhai One 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．D 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了水下考古学家的工作性质，中国水下考古人才培养的现状、水下考古工作的影响因素，并以南海一号沉船发掘为例，介绍了中国水下考古的发展成果。 1．原文第1段“These scientists explore ancient places and artefacts (文物) hidden under the sea.”，明确说明水下考古学家的核心工作是探索海底隐藏的古代遗迹与文物。 2．原文第3段“The training is tough. It requires years of hard work and practice. Right now, there are fewer than 200 underwater archaeologists in China.”，后文提到训练需要多年努力练习，且中国目前水下考古学家人数很少，说明训练难度很高，“challenging”符合划线词“tough”的词义。 3．原文第4段“Underwater work...depends greatly on the weather...The best time for underwater work is from May to November, because sea conditions are good during that period.”，明确说明水下工作极大依赖天气，同时指出海况是否良好决定了能否开展工作，因此天气和海况对水下工作影响最大。 4．原文第5段“This makes it a key piece of evidence (证据) for studying the Maritime Silk Road (海上丝绸之路) and research on it has continued ever since.”，直接说明南海一号是研究海上丝绸之路的关键证据，能够为相关研究提供关键信息，对应D选项的描述。 5．文章先后介绍水下考古工作内容、中国的水下考古培训、中国南海一号考古项目、中国水下考古的整体发展。B选项“水下考古学家的培训”、D选项“南海一号的发现”都只是文章部分内容，C选项“一名水下考古学家的生活”文中并未提及，A选项“中国的水下考古学”概括了全文核心主题，适合做标题。 Caves are dark, quiet, and mysterious places. But did you know they are also like time machines? They can show us what the world was like thousands of years ago. In many caves around the world, people have found ancient paintings on the walls. These paintings are often of animals like bison (野牛), horses and deer. They were painted by people who lived a long, long time ago. Scientists believe these paintings were not just for decoration. They might have been part of special ceremonies (仪式) or a way to tell stories. Besides paintings, caves keep other secrets. The floor of a cave is like a history book. Over thousands of years, dirt and sand build up in rock layers (岩层). In these layers, scientists can find old bones, tools, and even seeds. By studying these things, they can learn what animals lived there and what people ate. Some of the most famous cave paintings are in Lascaux, France. They are over 17,000 years old! To protect them, the caves are now closed to the public. But scientists have built a copy nearby so visitors can still see the amazing art. Caves truly are wonders that connect us to our past. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．Why are caves called “time machines” in the text? A．Because they are very old. B．Because they can show us the past. C．Because they can tell the future. D．Because they are dark and quiet. 2．What does the underlined word “decoration” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．记录 B．装饰 C．食物 D．武器 3．What can scientists find in the layers on the cave floor? A．Old paintings. B．Stars and planets. C．Bones and seeds. D．New animals. 4．Why are the Lascaux caves closed to the public? A．Because they are too dark. B．Because there are dangerous animals. C．To protect the ancient paintings. D．Because no one wants to visit them. 5．What can we learn from the text? A．Cave paintings are all of modern people. B．The cave floor can tell stories about the past. C．There are no caves in France. D．Scientists know nothing about cave paintings. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．C 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍洞穴作为“时间机器”的作用——通过壁画、岩层中的遗物展示古代世界，连接人类与过去。 1．第一段明确提到“they can show us what the world was like thousands of years ago”，洞穴被称为“时间机器”是因为能展示过去。 2．第二段“These paintings were not just for decoration. They might have been part of special ceremonies (仪式) or a way to tell stories.”中，结合语境可知壁画不仅是为了装饰，它们可能是特殊仪式的一部分，或是一种讲故事的方式。“decoration”意为“装饰”。 3．第三段提到“In these layers, scientists can find old bones, tools, and even seeds”，岩层中能找到骨头和种子。 4．第四段提到“To protect them, the caves are now closed to the public”，拉斯科洞穴关闭是为了保护古代壁画。 5．第三段提到“The floor of a cave is like a history book...By studying these things, they can learn what animals lived there and what people ate”，说明洞穴地面能讲述过去的故事。 Antarctica (南极洲) is very cold. But there, Xia Rongjun made people feel warm with his cooking! Xia Rongjun once cooked for China’s Antarctic expedition (考察) team at Zhongshan Station from 1998 to 1999. He cooked for about 200 people every day, making over 40 different Chinese dishes like meats, noodles and soups. The delicious smells from his cooking could go very far away. Sometimes, even foreign (外国的) expedition teams wanted to try his food. Xia made sure the meals were healthy by working with a doctor. They used health check data (数据) to plan the meals and help the team stay strong. During the winter in Antarctica, there might be no sunlight for many days. Some team members easily felt sad and tired. To cheer them up, Xia invited (邀请) team members from different parts of China to cook their favorite hometown dishes. This made everyone happy and brought them together. They made dishes like Beijing hot pot and snacks from Xiamen. The team enjoyed these meals so much. This fun cooking way not only fed them but also warmed their hearts. About one year later, when Xia was about to return to our country, the new station leader, Liu Shuyan, brought fresh fruits and vegetables to the team. He was surprised by the team’s physical condition—the best of all earlier expedition teams. Thanks to Xia’s hard work, the expedition team stayed healthy and did a great job with their scientific research. 1．How long did Xia cook at Zhongshan Station? A．For about 6 months.

Although this day sounds a little silly (傻的), there is a serious (严肃的) reason behind it. This day happens on the first Sunday of May every year. It was started by Dr. Madan Kataria, a doctor from India,in 1998. Its goal is to achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. Dr. Kataria encouraged people to join laughter groups where they could meet up and laugh in public. More than 12,000 people came to the first event, and since then it has caught on around the world. Nobody knows for sure why people laugh, but all human cultures have laughter. Even babies laugh before they can talk! Dr. Kataria found that when people fake (假装) laughing, it often causes real laughter. “Our body doesn’t know the difference between acting happy and being really happy, so we can fake laughing until the laughter comes naturally,” he said. On World Laughter Day, lots of people meet up in parks or squares to laugh together. They do Laughter Yoga, a kind of exercise that mixes (结合) laughing and deep breathing. There may also be music and dancing. They even have competitions to see who has the best laugh. If you can’t find a Laughter Day event near you, why not set up your own with friends and family? Or, you could watch a funny movie to join in the fun. Remember, the spirit of World Laughter Day is all about bringing joy and laughter into every day of the year. 1．What’s the goal of World Laughter Day?

One wonderful cultural show was called Ode to the Flower Gods (贺花神). It got its idea from the White Jade Twelve-Month Pendants (白玉十二生肖挂件) in the Palace Museum. The show beautifully mixes twelve months, twelve flowers, and twelve famous historical figures into one poetic program. It shows the beauty of traditional Chinese culture and tells us how flowers can stand for great qualities and valuable ideas. The show is special because each flower is matched with a person who has a similar spirit. Among them are seven great writers, such as Lin Bu, Lu You, Zhou Dunyi, Xu Wei, Tao Yuanming, Li Qingzhao and Bai Juyi. Their good qualities are just like the meanings of plum blossoms (梅花), apricot blossoms (杏花), lotuses (荷花), hollyhocks (蜀葵), chrysanthemums (菊花), sweet osmanthus (桂花) and camellias (山茶花). The show also includes four famous women: Xi Furen, Yang Yuhuan, Wang Zhaojun and LuoShen. They are connected with peach blossoms, peonies, cotton roses and daffodils. Zhang Qian, who brought pomegranates (石榴) to China, shows the brave spirit of the pomegranate flower. In this way, the show changes the old idea that only women can be flower gods. It fully shows the traditional Chinese idea of “finding virtues in flowers”. With the help of advanced AIGC technology, the show brings real performers and digital pictures together perfectly. On the stage, the twelve jade pendants finally form a full circle, which stands for the cycle of time and the beauty of harmony. Ode to the Flower Gods is more than a great artistic show; it helps people feel closer to their own culture through lively symbols. It keeps traditional culture alive in the digital age and shows the spirit of Chinese civilization with soft but strong cultural confidence. 1．What is the passage mainly about? A．The history of flowers in Chinese culture. B．A special cultural show at the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. C．Famous historical figures in Chinese history. D．The development of AIGC technology. 2．Where did the show Ode to the Flower Gods get its inspiration from? A．Ancient Chinese poems about flowers. B．Stories of great female writers. C．The White Jade Twelve-Month Pendants in the Palace Museum. D．Traditional Chinese paintings of flowers. 3．What plays a key role in the performance according to paragraph 3? A．Traditional stage settings B．Ancient jade collections C．Live audiences’ participation D．Advanced AIGC technology 4．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．All the flower gods in the show are female. B．The show uses AIGC technology to mix real acting and digital scenes. C．The twelve jade pendants stand for different seasons of a year.

B．To introduce a way of creating digital pictures. C．To show the beauty of Chinese culture and cultural confidence. D．To tell stories of twelve famous historical people. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了2026年央视春晚中一个名为《贺花神》的文化节目，该节目融合了十二月、十二种花和十二位历史人物，借助AIGC技术展现了传统中国文化的美丽与文化自信。 1．文章首段即指出“One wonderful cultural show was called Ode to the Flower Gods (贺花神)”，并围绕该节目的灵感来源、内容特点和技术手段展开，因此本文主要介绍的是2026年春晚上的一个特别文化节目。 2．根据第一段中的“It got its idea from the White Jade Twelve-Month Pendants (白玉十二生肖挂件) in the Palace Museum”可知，《贺花神》的灵感来源于故宫博物院的白玉十二生肖挂件。 3．根据第三段中的“With the help of advanced AIGC technology, the show brings real performers and digital pictures together perfectly”可知，先进的AIGC技术在演出中起到了关键作用。 4．根据第三段首句“the show brings real performers and digital pictures together perfectly”可知，该节目利用AIGC技术将真实表演与数字画面完美融合。 5．文章最后指出该节目“keeps traditional culture alive in the digital age and shows the spirit of Chinese civilization with soft but strong cultural confidence”，结合全文对节目文化内涵的赞美，可知作者写作目的是展示中国文化的美丽与文化自信。 Helping others is a great thing to do.

A study shows that more than 80% of children choose jobs they often see around them, like doctors and teachers, with teachers topping the list of kids’ dream jobs. But jobs such as cartoonists appear in less than 7% of their answers. We often overlook jobs hidden outside our daily lives. ②Choosing a career is crucial (至关重要的) because it will be a big part of your life. If you don’t enjoy your job, your life won’t be as happy as you wish it to be. Try looking into different possibilities! Your dream job might be something you’ve never heard of before. ③How can you start? First, think about your interests and strengths. This will help shape your future job. If numbers excite you, maybe you can be a scientist. If storytelling comes naturally, then writing or filmmaking could be your choice. And remember to talk to your parents, teachers and friends. They can share ideas about different jobs. ④Also, think about future trends (趋势). Many jobs today, like web developers, weren’t around 50 years ago. New jobs like AI ethics advisors might appear when you grow up. As a result, besides learning subjects, you should also try to improve your creativity and critical thinking (批判思维). ⑤ In all, it’s no use just planning without acting.

Put on a happy face. Compared to unhappy people, those who are happy are less likely (可能的) to suffer from colds, according to a new study. “It’s possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses,” said the researchers from New York University. “It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness,” said the study’s leader (首席) researcher Sheldon Cohen. In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were happy and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill. In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers about the happy or sad feelings they had that day. After two weeks, the people were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for seven days. The result showed that everyone in the study was equally (同等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research time, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time. Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may make a kind of thing in the body that helps fight illness. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often. 1．According to the study, who is less likely to suffer from colds? A．People who are happy. B．People who are unhappy. C．People who exercise more. D．People who often try new things. 2．What does the underlined word “interviewed” probably mean? A．Shut…away. B．Pushed…hard. C．Asked…questions. D．Watched…carefully. 3．How long did the new study last in total? A．For a month. B．For three weeks. C．For two weeks. D．For seven days. 4．What was the result of the new study? A．Happy people didn’t get sick. B．Unhappy people got sick less. C．Everyone felt happy during the research. D．Happy people got less sick and got well faster. 5．What does the writer want to tell us through the text? A．There is a new study about health. B．A new kind of medicine can treat colds. C．Positive feelings may help us stay healthier. D．We should pay attention to our daily feelings. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文介绍一项科学研究：乐观开朗的人更不易感冒，即便生病，症状也更轻、恢复得更快。研究表明积极情绪能帮助身体抵御疾病，文章最后呼吁人们多保持乐观心态，守护自身健康。 1．第二段第一句“Compared to unhappy people, those who are happy are less likely (可能的) to suffer from colds, according to a new study.”说明快乐的人更不容易患感冒。 2．第五段“In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers about the happy or sad feelings they had that day.”说明研究人员是通过询问来获取信息的，因此“interviewed”意为“采访、询问”，即“Asked…questions”。 3．第五段“In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks.”说明每天采访193人，持续两周；第六段“After two weeks, the people were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for seven days.”说明两周后，人们感染感冒病毒，并不得不独自在房间里待七天，可知，研究总时长为采访的两周加上隔离观察的七天，即14天+7天=21天，共三周。 4．第七段“The result showed that everyone in the study was equally (同等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research time, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time.”说明快乐的人生病程度较轻且恢复更快。 5．通读全文，文章主要通过一项研究说明了积极情绪可以帮助身体抵抗疾病，减轻病情。文章最后一句“So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often.”也总结了这一观点。因此作者想告诉我们积极的情绪可能帮助我们保持健康。 能力综合实践5篇 Today, teamwork is important in many fields (领域). Most people think the best way to build a great team is to bring together the most talented people. For example, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg once said one great engineer is as useful as a hundred common ones. Do you think this is always true? Can more talents always help us do better? Animal scientist William Muir did an experiment with chickens. He chose some strong chickens that could lay many eggs. He kept them for a long time and made them Group A．He also used some common chickens as Group B．But the result was surprising. Chickens in Group A laid fewer eggs than those in Group B．They used too much energy competing (竞争) with each other. So they had little energy left to lay eggs. This finding made scientists interested in studying teams. They did some studies on three sports: football, basketball and baseball. In football and basketball, teams worked better when there were some excellent players. But when more than 70% of the players were very good, the team did not do better. In fact, it did worse. However, things were different in baseball. More excellent players still made the team work better. There are two reasons for this. First, in football and basketball, players must work together very well. If there are too many great players, they may care more about themselves than the team. This makes the team do worse. Second, when there are many great people in a group, some players may rely on (依赖) other teammates too much and not work hard. In the end, it is not easy to build a great team just by choosing great members. We need a good balance. We need some excellent members. We also need good cooperation and strong teamwork. If we work together and try our best, we can turn our strength into real success. 1．How does the writer lead in the topic? A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions. C．By listing numbers. D．By showing pictures. 2．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Animal scientists. B．All the chickens. C．Chickens in Group A． D．Chickens in Group B． 3．What do studies on sports show? A．Too many excellent players may make the team do worse. B．Basketball players do not have to work together very well. C．Baseball players care more about themselves than the team. D．Football teams should have more than 70% of excellent players. 4．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Teamwork in Sports B．How to Build a Great Team C．The More Talents, the Better D．An Experiment with Chickens 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文通过鸡的实验和体育项目研究，探讨了“顶尖人才越多团队表现越好”的误区，指出优秀团队需要平衡的成员结构与良好的协作。 1．原文第一段结尾提出两个问题“Do you think this is always true? Can more talents always help us do better?”，可知通过提问引出下文的讨论。 2．原文第二段“Chickens in Group A laid fewer eggs than those in Group B. They used too much energy competing with each other.”可知，“They”指代前文提到的“Chickens in Group A”。 3．原文第三段“In football and basketball, teams worked better when there were some excellent players. But when more than 70% of the players were very good, the team did not do better. In fact, it did worse.”可知，研究表明太多优秀球员可能让团队表现变差。 4．全文围绕“打造优秀团队的关键”展开，通过实验和研究说明团队需要平衡的成员结构与协作，因此最佳标题是B项“如何打造优秀团队”。 ①Teaching children to help others is one of the most valuable lessons. Why? ②Encouraging children to help others can make them kind and empathetic (有同理心的). So they are good at understanding and cooperating with others. As a result, they are more likely to build stronger and more meaningful relationships. When children help others, they can also develop a sense of achievement and responsibility. This encourages them to be helpful. ③There are many ways to get children to practise kindness. They can start learning to help at home by doing chores. For example, after finishing the meal, they can be asked to help clean up the table. It teaches them that being part of a family means sharing responsibilities.       ④Schools also provide children with the chance to help their peers in various ways. They can help by sharing stationery (文具), offering learning support, or simply by inviting a classmate to join in a game. The acts of kindness help them build friendships. ⑤What’s more, it is necessary to teach children to care for the environment. Encourage them to do little things, such as picking up plastic bottles in parks, planting trees, or saving water. And tell them that they can also help by spreading ideas on green living. For example, they can start a conversation about reducing waste with their friends. ⑥In short, when children learn to help, they first become better people themselves. Then, through their actions, they can make the whole world a better place. 1．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．What children can gain from helping others.

As a result, they are more likely to build stronger and more meaningful relationships. When children help others, they can also develop a sense of achievement and responsibility.”，由此可知第二段主要讲述了孩子从帮助他人中能获得的益处。 2．原文第三段提到“It teaches them that being part of a family means sharing responsibilities.”，结合前文的“help at home by doing chores”，可知作者建议孩子先从帮忙做家务开始，是因为这能教会他们乐于助人并承担责任。 3．原文第四段提到“Schools also provide children with the chance to help their peers in various ways. They can help by sharing stationery, offering learning support, or simply by inviting a classmate to join in a game.”，句中列举了多种帮助同学的方式，由此可推断“various”的意思是不同的。 4．文章结构为：①提出教孩子帮助他人是重要课程；②阐述帮助他人的好处；③④⑤分别介绍在家、在学校、在社会中帮助他人的方式；⑥总结帮助他人的意义。因此结构为①②为总起，引出③④⑤的分述，最后以⑥总结。 Nowadays, many teenagers don’t like to do housework at home.

It is also one of the most interesting sights of Taganai Park in Russia. Different from other rivers, it is filled with rocks and stones. Not a drop of water can be seen. Interestingly, as one comes near to the rocky river, the sound of running water can be heard. The Big Stone River is about 6 km long and is made up of many small rocky rivers. It cuts through a thick forest like a real river. It is about 200 metres wide and in some places, it is up to 700 metres wide. Some of the rocks weigh up to 10 tons each and the layer(层) of rocks goes down 6 metres deep. Scientists believe it was formed by the movement of glaciers (冰川) about 10,000 years ago. At that time, thick ice covered the top of the mountains. Over time, as the climate warmed and the glaciers melted (融化), the flowing water and ice carried and deposited (使沉积) these huge rocks, creating the stone river we see today. Seeing the amazing river is a great experience. The best way to experience this natural wonder is from above. Come and visit it when you come to Russia. 1．Why is the Big Stone River special?
