It brings us a lot of convenience. We can do many things online. We can search for all kinds of 1 on the Internet. When we want to know about different places in China, we can watch videos and learn about their culture and history. We can also 2 with our family and friends far away easily. It helps us keep in touch with them. Many students like reading online. They can read different 3 and novels on the Internet. It’s a good way to relax ourselves. The Internet also helps us 4 many new things. We can learn English, history and other subjects online. It makes learning 5 and more interesting. We should use the Internet in a right way and make our life better. 1．A．food B．information C．money D．clothes 2．A．communicate B．talk C．speak D．tell 3．A．stories B．songs C．games D．films 4．A．learn B．to learn C．learned D．learning 5．A．easy B．easier C．easiest D．the easiest 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．A 4．A 5．B 【导语】本文介绍了互联网在我们生活中的重要作用，它带来了诸多便利，可用于搜索信息、联系亲友、在线阅读、学习知识等，并呼吁我们正确使用互联网来改善生活。 1．句意：我们可以在互联网上搜索各种各样的信息。 根据下文“When we want to know about different places in China, we can watch videos and learn about their culture and history.”可知，互联网的一个重要用途是搜索各类信息，information“信息” 符合语境。food“食物”，money“钱”，clothes“衣服” 均不符合“搜索并了解文化历史”的语境。 2．句意：我们也可以轻松地与远方的家人和朋友交流。 communicate with sb.是固定搭配，意为“与某人交流/沟通”，后文的“keep in touch with them”（和他们保持联系）也印证了这一点；talk with虽然也有交流的意思，但communicate更侧重双向的沟通，更贴合“和远方亲友保持联系”的语境。 3．句意：他们可以在互联网上阅读不同的故事和小说。 根据上文“Many students like reading online.”和下文“and novels on the Internet”可知，此处指在线阅读文学作品，stories“故事”与novels“小说”为同类搭配，符合语境。songs“歌曲”，games“游戏”，films“电影”均不属于阅读类的文学作品。 4．句意：互联网也帮助我们学习许多新事物。 help sb. (to) do sth.是固定结构，表示“帮助某人做某事”，这里help us learn many new things用动词原形learn是最常见、最自然的用法；to learn语法上也正确，但在这种结构中省略to更普遍。 5．句意：它让学习变得更容易、更有趣。 根据下文“and more interesting”可知，and连接并列的形容词比较级，easier“更容易的”与more interesting“更有趣的”构成并列，符合语境。 B Nowadays, many teenagers feel stressed because of study. They don’t have enough time to 6 . As a result, their health is getting worse and worse. It’s very important for us to keep a balance between study and relaxation. First, we should have a healthy 7 . Eating more fruit and vegetables, and less junk food is good for our body. Second, we need to do 8 every day. It can be running, swimming or playing ball games. Exercise not only makes us strong, but also helps us relax. Third, we should have enough 9 . Staying up late is bad for our health, so we should go to bed early and get up early. Besides, we can develop some hobbies to relax ourselves, such as reading, drawing or listening to music. Hobbies can make our life more 10 and help us grow up happily. Remember, health is the most important thing for us. Let’s take action to stay healthy and relax properly! 6．A．study B．relax C．work D．play 7．A．habit B．diet C．life D．hobby 8．A．exercise B．homework C．housework D．reading 9．A．food B．water C．sleep D．time 10．A．boring B．difficult C．colorful D．busy 【答案】6．B 7．B 8．A 9．C 10．C 【导语】本文针对青少年因学习压力大导致健康下降的问题，提出了平衡学习与放松的建议：健康饮食、每天锻炼、充足睡眠以及发展爱好，强调健康最重要。 6．句意：他们没有足够的时间去放松。 前文提到青少年因学习压力大，后文点明要平衡学习和放松，可知此处说他们没有足够时间放松，选relax“放松”。study“学习”与语境矛盾；work“工作”不符合学生身份；play“玩耍”侧重娱乐，不如relax贴合“缓解压力”的主题。 7．句意：首先，我们应该有健康的饮食。 后文提到“吃更多水果蔬菜，少吃垃圾食品”，这属于饮食“diet”范畴。habit“习惯”范围过宽；life“生活”不具体；hobby“爱好”与食物无关。 8．句意：其次，我们需要每天锻炼。 后文举例“跑步、游泳、打球”均为锻炼“exercise”。homework“作业”、housework“家务”、reading“阅读”均不符合建议内容。 9．句意：第三，我们应该有充足的睡眠。 后文提到“熬夜有害健康，应早睡早起”，因此需要的是睡眠“sleep”。food“食物”、water“水”、time“时间”均与早睡早起的建议不直接对应。 10．句意：爱好能让我们的生活更加丰富多彩，并帮助我们快乐成长。 爱好通常使生活有趣、多彩“colorful”。boring“无聊的”、difficult“困难的”、busy“忙碌的”均与爱好的积极意义相反。 C Have you ever dreamed of exploring the world without leaving your home? With the rise of virtual travel, this dream has become a 11 . Virtual travel allows you to visit famous landmarks, museums, and natural wonders through your computer or smartphone. One of the greatest 12 of virtual travel is convenience. You don’t need to pack bags, book flights, or wait in long lines. With just a few clicks, you can “walk” through the Louvre Museum in Paris or “stand” at the top of the Eiffel Tower. Many platforms offer 360-degree views and audio guides, making the experience feel 13 . Virtual travel is also a great learning tool. Students can explore ancient ruins, 14 famous paintings up close, and learn about different cultures without leaving their classrooms. Teachers often use these resources to make lessons more engaging. 15 , virtual travel cannot fully replace the real thing. You cannot feel the sun on your face, taste local food, or talk to people in person. Still, it offers a wonderful way to discover new places, especially when real travel is not possible 11．A．dream B．reality C．problem D．question 12．A．disadvantages B．advantages C．problems D．dangers 13．A．boring B．real C．strange D．difficult 14．A．examine B．break C．touch D．move 15．A．Therefore B．However C．Also D．Instead 【答案】11．B 12．B 13．B 14．A 15．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了虚拟旅行的好处和坏处。 【详解】11．句意：随着虚拟旅行的兴起，这个梦想已经成为现实。 前文提到足不出户探索世界是一个梦想，此处表示随着虚拟旅行兴起，这个梦想变成了现实，reality“现实”，符合语境。 12．句意：虚拟旅行的最大优势之一是便利性。 后文介绍的便利性是虚拟旅行的优势，此处表示“最大的优点之一”，advantages“优势”，符合文意。 13．句意：许多平台提供360度全景和语音导览，让体验感觉真实。 很多平台提供360度视角和语音导览，会让虚拟旅行的体验更接近真实，real“真实的”，符合逻辑。 14．句意：虚拟旅行也是一个很好的学习工具。学生可以在不离开教室的情况下探索古代遗址，近距离细看著名画作，了解不同的文化。 虚拟旅行无法真正触摸、移动名画，只有“近距离细看名画”符合学习场景的描述，examine在此表示“观察、细看”，符合文意。 15．句意：然而，虚拟旅行并不能完全取代真实的旅行。 前文介绍虚拟旅行的诸多优点，后文指出它无法完全替代真实旅行，前后是转折关系，However表转折，符合逻辑。 二、完形填空（共 10 小题，每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） As the smallest and thinnest player in my ice hockey (冰球) team, I got a nickname (绰号) from my team leader. When I first heard other players call the name, I knew it was a joke, but I still felt 16 Only Eric never called me that. He always tried his best to make me feel at 17 on the team, and helped me practice my skills on the ice. I felt everyone else saw me as a 18 little boy—after all, they could lift me with just one arm. One day, we played against another team. Their players were all huge and strong, and I was 19 that any of them could take my puck easily. In the middle of the game, I held the puck tight (紧地) and skated fast, then 20 it to Eric. He was about to catch it when the biggest player from the other team hit him. 21 Eric fell down hard on the cold ice. To our 22 , the player laughed at him instead of stopping to help. I felt angry seeing someone act so badly to my friend. I skated straight towards him, and 23 ,“you must say sorry to him!" He said no and tried to skate away, but I reached him quickly. I continued to follow him, and wouldn’t let him run off. I stood in his way to 24 him from leaving, again and again. Finally, he had to say sorry to Eric. From that moment, everything changed. My teammates realized that 25 I might be small, I had my own strengths (长处). They never used that nickname again. They told me they had never seen someone so small stand up so bravely. That day became a happy memory for me, a turning point where I found my place and my calm on the ice. 16．A．calm B．happy C．sad D．nervous 17．A．school B．home C．work D．team 18．A．weak B．strong C．shy D．kind 19．A．surprised B．confident C．afraid D．glad 20．A．showed B．brought C．passed D．threw 21．A．Suddenly B．Slowly C．Closely D．Carefully 22．A．happiness B．sadness C．surprise D．pity 23．A．advised B．asked C．replied D．shouted 24．A．catch B．keep C．prevent D．watch 25．A．since B．until C．though D．because 【答案】 16．C 17．B 18．A 19．C 20．C 21．A 22．C 23．D 24．C 25．C 【导语】本文讲述了作为冰球队里最矮瘦的队员，作者在一次比赛中勇敢地站出来，逼迫撞倒队友的对手道歉，从而赢得了队友们的尊重，不再被叫绰号的故事。 【详解】16．句意：当我第一次听到其他队员叫这个名字时，我知道这是一个玩笑，但我仍然感到伤心。 根据“I know it was a joke, but I still felt...”可知，虽然知道是玩笑，但被起绰号心里还是会感到难过，sad“难过”符合语境。 17．句意：他总是尽力让我在队里感到自在，并帮助我在冰上练习技巧。 根据“make me feel at...”可知，此处考查固定搭配feel at home，意为“感觉像在家里一样，感到自在”，符合Eric对作者友好的语境。 18．句意：我觉得其他人都把我当成一个虚弱的小男孩——毕竟，他们只用一只胳膊就能把我举起来。 根据前文“smallest and thinnest”以及后文“they could lift me with just one arm”可知，大家觉得作者很瘦弱，weak“弱的”符合描述。 19．句意：他们的队员都非常高大强壮，我害怕他们中的任何一个都能轻易抢走我的冰球。 根据“Their players were all huge and strong”可知，面对高大强壮的对手，作者内心是害怕冰球被轻易抢走的，afraid“害怕的”与句意符合。 20．句意：在比赛中，我紧紧抓住冰球，滑得很快，然后把它传给Eric。根据语境可知，在冰球比赛中，把球传递给队友应用动词pass。 21．句意：突然，Eric重重地摔在了冷冰冰的冰面上。 根据“the biggest player from the other team hit him”可知，被猛烈撞击后是突然摔倒的，描述突发事件，Suddenly“突然”符合对场景的描述。 22．句意：令我们惊讶的是，那个球员不仅没有停下来帮忙，反而嘲笑他。 根据“laughed at him instead of stopping to help”可知，撞人后不帮忙反而嘲笑，这种恶劣行为令人感到惊讶。To one’s surprise为固定搭配，意为“令某人惊讶的是”。 23．句意：我径直向他滑去，大喊道：“你必须向他道歉！” 根据“I felt angry”以及感叹号可知，作者当时非常生气，所以是大声喊叫，shouted“喊叫”符合句意。 24．句意：我挡住他的路，一次又一次地阻止他离开。 根据“him from leaving, again and again”可知，作者一次次阻止那位球员离开，prevent sb. from doing sth.意为“阻止某人做某事”。 25．考查连词辨析。句意：我的队友们意识到，虽然我可能很小，但我有自己的长处。 根据“I might be small”和“I had my own strengths”可知，前后两句是让步转折关系，应用though引导让步状语从句。 三、阅读理解（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） A VOLUNTEERS NEEDED Children in Need The Charity Shop We are looking for volunteers to help with a group of teenagers.

Kathy felt worried. She knew it would be a perfect birthday gift—Ella wanted to be a songwriter. But she was working three jobs just to make ends meet. She wanted her teenage daughter to have what she herself had missed. As a child, Kathy loved piano, but had to give up the lessons when her parents’ business failed. Luckily, a couple in their neighbourhood were giving away an old piano. Kathy had it moved to their home. To Kathy’s joy, Ella played every day. But as months passed, the practice grew shorter. Then one day, Ella stopped. “It’s harder than I thought,” she said. “Now, I want to be a fashion model.” The piano was sold to pay for modeling classes in London. Kathy was sorry to see it go. “It’s just a piano, Mum.” Ella said. It found its way to Delia. She played every morning for a local dance school. The piano gave her a new life after her retirement (退休). When she had to move to New Zealand, she found it a new home with a community project that placed instruments in public spaces for everyone to play. Years passed. Ella became a successful model and would no longer need Kathy’s support. One evening, Kathy walked past an underground station. There stood her old piano! A child was playing happily. Then an old man took his turn, playing lively music. Even hurried passers-by stopped to listen. Kathy stood still, watching. “The piano holds a key—not to a door, but to happiness,” a gentleman beside her said. “It’s magical how music brings people together.” “Yes,” Kathy agreed. “Music makes the world a better place.” “Do you play an instrument?” he asked. Kathy looked at the piano. For years, she had worked for others, having little time and money for herself. “I used to,” she said and added with a smile, “and I will again.” Kathy finally got her own key to happiness. 32．What made Kathy worried at the beginning of the story? A．Her parents’ business failed. B．Her daughter missed a lesson. C．She didn’t have enough money. D．She was too busy to buy a gift. 33．Where did Kathy see the piano again? A．At Delia’s place. B．In New Zealand. C．In a local dance school. D．At an underground station. 34．Why did Kathy say “and I will again” ? A．Because she would get the piano back. B．Because the gentleman gave her courage. C．Because she could now care about herself. D．Because she hoped to make the world better. 35．What would be the best title for the passage? A．A Gift from Mum B．A Beautiful Piano C．The Magic of Music D．The Key to Happiness 【答案】32．C 33．D 34．C 35．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一架旧钢琴在不同人手中传递，最终让一位母亲重新找回对音乐的热爱与属于自己的幸福的故事。 【详解】32．原文第二段提到“But she was working three jobs just to make ends meet.”，由此可知Kathy一开始担心是因为她没有足够的钱给女儿买钢琴。 33．原文第九段提到“One evening, Kathy walked past an underground station. There stood her old piano!”，由此可知Kathy是在地铁站再次看到那架钢琴的。 34．原文最后提到Kathy意识到自己多年来一直为别人操劳，很少为自己花时间和金钱，而看到钢琴后她决定重新拾起音乐，开始关注自己的幸福，因此她说“and I will again”是因为她现在终于可以关心自己了。 35．全文围绕“钢琴是开启幸福的钥匙”这一核心意象展开，讲述了它如何连接不同的人，并最终让Kathy找回属于自己的幸福，因此最佳标题是“The Key to Happiness”。 D Did you take part in any tree-planting activities on March 12 this year? Or maybe you went to check out the little tree you planted a few years ago? Standing beside it, you might have been amazed at how much it has changed. It’s really great to watch a tree grow year by year. Even the tallest ones of them grow from tiny seeds. Have you ever wondered how it happened? A full-grown tree may drop hundreds or even thousands of seeds a year. Inside each seed is something called embryo (胚). Think of it as a small group of cells (细胞). These cells are ready to form roots, stems (茎), and first leaves. Once the covering around the seed gets wet, the embryo cells, which have been patiently waiting, suddenly come to life. They start to grow and break out. This is called germination. First, the roots develop and push out and down into the soil. This makes sure the new plant can get water from the soil. Then the stem grows up and makes the first leaves. As these leaves produce “food” in the sunlight, the plant gets the energy to grow more new leaves. Let’s imagine you drive a nail (钉子) into a tree at one metre above the ground. What will you see when you come back in ten years? The tree will be much taller, but the nail will still be only one metre above the ground. That’s because trees get taller by growing upwards from the top. At the same time, their trunk gets thicker by growing outwards. It is like the tree has two different ways of growing at the same time. The upward growth is like a race towards the sky, reaching for more sunlight, while the outward growth of the trunk is like adding more and more rings of protection and support. As trees get older, they continue to grow taller and thicker. Guess how tall the world’s tallest living tree is? Over 110 metres! That’s as tall as a 30-floor building! Isn’t it amazing? 36．Which one of the pictures shows the stage of germination? A． B． C． D． 37．What can we infer (推断) from the first two paragraphs? A．All the seeds dropped by a tree will grow into big trees. B．The embryo inside the seed is necessary for a tree to grow. C．People only care about the trees they planted themselves. D．Trees can grow tall without going through the seed stage. 38．If a tree trunk gets thicker over time, what will happen to a metal ring put around the bottom of the trunk after 10 years? A．The metal ring will go into the soil. B．The metal ring will be higher off the ground. C．The metal ring will move up and down along the trunk. D．The metal ring will stay at the same height but may embed (嵌入)  in the tree. 39．From the article, we can find the answer to the question “________”. ①How do trees get water from the soil? ②Why does a nail in a tree trunk stay at the same height over time? ③How many seeds does a full-grown tree drop in its lifetime? ④How tall can the tallest trees in the world grow? ⑤How long does a seed take to grow leaves? A．①③④ B．①②③ C．②④⑤ D．①②④ 40．Which of the following best represents the structure of the passage? A．Tell stories→List facts→Give a warning B．Ask questions→Explain steps→Share a fact C．List problems→Study reasons→Offer advice D．Share experiences→Show examples→Introduce features 【答案】36．A 37．B 38．D 39．D 40．B 【导语】本文科普了一些关于树木的生长知识。 【详解】36．根据第三段关于“germination”的解释“Once the covering around the seed gets wet, the embryo cells, which have been patiently waiting, suddenly come to life. They start to grow and break out.”可知，种子外壳遇水后，内部胚细胞苏醒、生长、破壳而出的过程叫作“germination (发芽)”，图片A符合题意。 37．根据第二段的“Inside each seed is something called embryo...These cells are ready to form roots, stems (茎), and first leaves.”可知，种子内部含有胚，胚细胞会发育成根、茎、叶，选项B的“种子内的胚是树木生长所必需的。”符合题意。 38．根据第四段的“That’s because trees get taller by growing upwards from the top. At the same time, their trunk gets thicker by growing outwards.”可知，树木从顶端向上长高，树干向外长粗，如果用金属环圈住树干底部，十年后金属环的高度不变，但金属环会嵌入树干中，选项D符合题意。 39．根据第三段的“First, the roots develop and push out and down into the soil. This makes sure the new plant can get water from the soil.”可知，树根帮助从土壤获取水分，这回答了①的“树木是如何从土壤获取水”；根据第四段的“The tree will be much taller, but the nail will still be only one metre above the ground. That’s because trees get taller by growing upwards from the top. At the same time, their trunk gets thicker by growing outwards.”可知，树会长高长粗，钉子会在相同的位置不变，这回答了②的“为什么树干上的钉子会随着时间的推移始终保持在同一高度”的问题；根据最后一段的“Guess how tall the world’s tallest living tree is? Over 110 metres!”可知，世界上最高的树超过110米，这回答了④的“世界上最高的树木能长到多高”的问题。故选项D的①②④符合题意。 40．通读全文可知，文章开头连续提出多个问题，有关于是否参加植树节活动、种子如何长成大树等，这些是“Ask questions (提出问题)”； 文章中间分段讲解种子萌发、生根、长叶、树木长高长粗的完整生长过程，这是“Explain steps (讲解步骤)”； 文末分享世界最高树木的相关事实数据，这是“Share a fact (分享事实)”，故选B。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（满分50分） 四、词汇填空（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使短文意思完整正确。 Good manners are very important in our daily life.

We should follow the school rules and be friendly to people around us. If everyone can behave well and respect each other, our school will become a better place for us to study and grow. 【答案】41．behave 42．respectfully 43．modest 44．promise 45．cheat 【导语】本文讲述了文明礼仪在日常生活中的重要性，并对学生如何做到举止得体、诚实谦虚提出了具体建议。 【详解】41．句意：作为学生，我们应该学会在学校和公共场合表现良好。“表现”，其英文翻译为“behave”，动词。“learn to do sth”为固定结构，不定式符号to后接动词原形。 42．句意：我们应该恭敬地和老师、父母说话。根据文中语句“speak to our teachers and parents…”可知，需要副词修饰动词speak。“恭敬地”，其英文翻译为“respectfully”。 43．句意：当我们取得好成绩或进步时，我们应该始终保持谦虚，不要骄傲。“谦虚的”，其英文翻译为“modest”，形容词。be动词后接形容词作表语。 44．句意：我们应该承诺做到诚实，永远不要在考试中欺骗。“承诺”，其英文翻译为“promise”，动词。情态动词should后接动词原形，“promise to do sth”为固定搭配。 45．句意：我们应该承诺做到诚实，永远不要在考试中欺骗。“欺骗”，其英文翻译为“cheat”，动词，情态动词should后接动词原形。 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Our school has a Volunteer Day every year. It 46 (normal) takes place on the second Saturday of May. It is a day for us to give back to the community. This year, we went to a special center that helps the parents of 47 (able) children. When we arrived, Jim, one of my classmates, knocked on the door gently. His 48 (polite) impressed all the teachers there. We talked to the children 49 (respect) and played games with them. Some of us read interesting stories to the kids, and others helped them draw colorful pictures. The children smiled happily and shared their toys with us. Volunteer Day is the most popular event in our school. So far, it has won lots of 50 (praise). Everyone feels warm and happy when they can do something small to make a difference to others’ lives. 【答案】46．normally 47．disabled 48．politeness 49．respectfully 50．praise 【导语】本文通过讲述学校志愿者日去特殊中心帮助残疾儿童的经历，强调了志愿服务带来的温暖与快乐，指出小小的善举也能对他人的生活产生积极影响。 【详解】46．句意：它通常在五月的第二个星期六举行。空处修饰动词短语“takes place”，表示发生的频率或状态，需用副词形式normally。 47．句意：今年，我们去了一家专门帮助残疾儿童父母的特殊中心。根据前文提到的“special center”可知，此处指代的是需要帮助的特殊群体，即“残疾的”孩子，需将形容词“able”改为disabled。 48．句意：他的礼貌给那里的所有老师留下了深刻印象。空处位于形容词性物主代词“His”之后，作主语，需用名词形式，“polite”的名词为politeness。 49．句意：我们恭敬地和孩子们交谈并和他们一起玩游戏。空处修饰动词短语“talked to”，表示说话的方式，需用副词形式，“respect”的副词为respectfully。 50．句意：到目前为止，它赢得了许多赞扬。“lots of”后接可数名词复数或不可数名词，“praise”意为“赞扬、表扬”，在此处作不可数名词使用，保持原形即可，故填praise。 根据短文内容，从下面方框中选择适当的单词或短语填空，使短文内容完整正确，其中有一项是多余选项。 give up      happily      books      because of      made      sixties In order to help some children in poor areas return to school, our school held a charity walk on Tuesday.

Just then, I heard our headmaster’s voice. She encouraged us not to 52 . Although she was in her 53 , she walked together with us. At the end of the day, we students raised lots of money 54 our efforts. Our school used the money to buy different kinds of 55 and then sent them to the children in poor areas. If all of us can give a helping hand, we can make a big difference to the world. 【答案】51．happily 52．give up 53．sixties 54．because of 55．books 【导语】本文通过描述学校组织的慈善步行的过程，传递“付出努力帮助他人，能让世界变得更美好”的理念，同时体现团队精神与公益精神。 51．句意：起初，我们都感觉精力充沛，愉快地互相交谈。句子成分分析可知，此处句子已完整，可填入副词happily来修饰动词talked，表示刚开始氛围很好。 52．句意：她鼓励我们不要放弃。前文“It seemed that I couldn’t walk any more.”提到我感觉走不动了，此处校长应该是鼓励我们不要放弃，使用搭配encourage sb. not to do sth.，“放弃”对应give up。 53．句意：即使她已经六十多岁了，但她还是和我们一起步行。此处使用搭配in one’s +整十数的复数，意为“在某人几十多岁时”，这里表示“校长六十多岁”，使用sixties。 54．句意：最终，由于我们的努力，我们学生们筹集了很多钱。前文提到“最后我们成功完成了步行”，后文是“我们的努力”，需要表达因果关系，our efforts是名词短语，需填入because of后接名词/名词短语。 55．句意：我们学校用这笔钱买了不同种类的书，然后把它们送给了贫困地区的孩子们。different kinds of后接名词复数，填入books符合“花钱买书送给贫困地区的孩子们”的语境。 五、任务型阅读（共9小题；56~63小题每小题1分，64小题2分，满分10分） Spring Break in Chinese Schools In recent years, more places in China have introduced (首次引入) a spring break for primary and middle school students.

This year, in many areas of Jiangsu and Sichuan, there was a longer holiday of up to six days because of the Qingming Festival. During the break, students are encouraged to get close to nature, go on family trips, read more books or develop hobbies. Teachers often give light or no homework, allowing students to relax both body and mind. Some schools also design special spring-themed tasks, such as studying plants, recording spring scenes or drawing pictures. They change the outdoor world into a lively classroom. However, the spring break also brings new problems. Many working parents are too busy with their jobs to look after their children during the break. To solve this problem, some schools organize volunteer programmes, sports activities and interest clubs. More schools invite teachers or experts to provide professional (专业的) courses for students. In fact, the spring break is designed to help students keep their study and rest balanced. People hope it can reduce pressure (压力) from heavy study and make school life more colourful.

I continued to follow him, and wouldn’t let him run off. I stood in his way to 24 him from leaving, again and again. Finally, he had to say sorry to Eric. From that moment, everything changed. My teammates realized that 25 I might be small, I had my own strengths (长处). They never used that nickname again. They told me they had never seen someone so small stand up so bravely.

She knew it would be a perfect birthday gift—Ella wanted to be a songwriter. But she was working three jobs just to make ends meet. She wanted her teenage daughter to have what she herself had missed. As a child, Kathy loved piano, but had to give up the lessons when her parents’ business failed. Luckily, a couple in their neighbourhood were giving away an old piano. Kathy had it moved to their home. To Kathy’s joy, Ella played every day. But as months passed, the practice grew shorter. Then one day, Ella stopped. “It’s harder than I thought,” she said. “Now, I want to be a fashion model.” The piano was sold to pay for modeling classes in London. Kathy was sorry to see it go. “It’s just a piano, Mum.” Ella said. It found its way to Delia. She played every morning for a local dance school. The piano gave her a new life after her retirement (退休). When she had to move to New Zealand, she found it a new home with a community project that placed instruments in public spaces for everyone to play. Years passed. Ella became a successful model and would no longer need Kathy’s support. One evening, Kathy walked past an underground station. There stood her old piano! A child was playing happily. Then an old man took his turn, playing lively music. Even hurried passers-by stopped to listen. Kathy stood still, watching. “The piano holds a key—not to a door, but to happiness,” a gentleman beside her said. “It’s magical how music brings people together.” “Yes,” Kathy agreed. “Music makes the world a better place.” “Do you play an instrument?” he asked.

A．A Gift from Mum B．A Beautiful Piano C．The Magic of Music D．The Key to Happiness D Did you take part in any tree-planting activities on March 12 this year? Or maybe you went to check out the little tree you planted a few years ago? Standing beside it, you might have been amazed at how much it has changed. It’s really great to watch a tree grow year by year. Even the tallest ones of them grow from tiny seeds. Have you ever wondered how it happened? A full-grown tree may drop hundreds or even thousands of seeds a year. Inside each seed is something called embryo (胚). Think of it as a small group of cells (细胞). These cells are ready to form roots, stems (茎), and first leaves. Once the covering around the seed gets wet, the embryo cells, which have been patiently waiting, suddenly come to life. They start to grow and break out. This is called germination. First, the roots develop and push out and down into the soil. This makes sure the new plant can get water from the soil. Then the stem grows up and makes the first leaves. As these leaves produce “food” in the sunlight, the plant gets the energy to grow more new leaves. Let’s imagine you drive a nail (钉子) into a tree at one metre above the ground. What will you see when you come back in ten years? The tree will be much taller, but the nail will still be only one metre above the ground. That’s because trees get taller by growing upwards from the top. At the same time, their trunk gets thicker by growing outwards. It is like the tree has two different ways of growing at the same time. The upward growth is like a race towards the sky, reaching for more sunlight, while the outward growth of the trunk is like adding more and more rings of protection and support. As trees get older, they continue to grow taller and thicker. Guess how tall the world’s tallest living tree is? Over 110 metres! That’s as tall as a 30-floor building! Isn’t it amazing? 36．Which one of the pictures shows the stage of germination? A． B． C． D． 37．What can we infer (推断) from the first two paragraphs? A．All the seeds dropped by a tree will grow into big trees. B．The embryo inside the seed is necessary for a tree to grow. C．People only care about the trees they planted themselves. D．Trees can grow tall without going through the seed stage. 38．If a tree trunk gets thicker over time, what will happen to a metal ring put around the bottom of the trunk after 10 years? A．The metal ring will go into the soil. B．The metal ring will be higher off the ground. C．The metal ring will move up and down along the trunk. D．The metal ring will stay at the same height but may embed (嵌入)  in the tree. 39．From the article, we can find the answer to the question “________”. ①How do trees get water from the soil? ②Why does a nail in a tree trunk stay at the same height over time? ③How many seeds does a full-grown tree drop in its lifetime? ④How tall can the tallest trees in the world grow? ⑤How long does a seed take to grow leaves? A．①③④ B．①②③ C．②④⑤ D．①②④ 40．Which of the following best represents the structure of the passage?

Different from long summer and winter holidays, the spring break is a short but meaningful vacation in spring, usually lasting for two to three days. This year, in many areas of Jiangsu and Sichuan, there was a longer holiday of up to six days because of the Qingming Festival. During the break, students are encouraged to get close to nature, go on family trips, read more books or develop hobbies. Teachers often give light or no homework, allowing students to relax both body and mind. Some schools also design special spring-themed tasks, such as studying plants, recording spring scenes or drawing pictures. They change the outdoor world into a lively classroom. However, the spring break also brings new problems. Many working parents are too busy with their jobs to look after their children during the break. To solve this problem, some schools organize volunteer programmes, sports activities and interest clubs. More schools invite teachers or experts to provide professional (专业的) courses for students. In fact, the spring break is designed to help students keep their study and rest balanced. People hope it can reduce pressure (压力) from heavy study and make school life more colourful. It lets families avoid crowds of people when travelling. Therefore, people can enjoy a better travel experience in a more comfortable way.

She knew it would be a perfect birthday gift—Ella wanted to be a songwriter. But she was working three jobs just to make ends meet. She wanted her teenage daughter to have what she herself had missed. As a child, Kathy loved piano, but had to give up the lessons when her parents’ business failed. Luckily, a couple in their neighbourhood were giving away an old piano. Kathy had it moved to their home. To Kathy’s joy, Ella played every day. But as months passed, the practice grew shorter. Then one day, Ella stopped. “It’s harder than I thought,” she said. “Now, I want to be a fashion model.” The piano was sold to pay for modeling classes in London. Kathy was sorry to see it go. “It’s just a piano, Mum.” Ella said. It found its way to Delia. She played every morning for a local dance school. The piano gave her a new life after her retirement (退休). When she had to move to New Zealand, she found it a new home with a community project that placed instruments in public spaces for everyone to play. Years passed. Ella became a successful model and would no longer need Kathy’s support. One evening, Kathy walked past an underground station. There stood her old piano! A child was playing happily. Then an old man took his turn, playing lively music. Even hurried passers-by stopped to listen. Kathy stood still, watching. “The piano holds a key—not to a door, but to happiness,” a gentleman beside her said. “It’s magical how music brings people together.” “Yes,” Kathy agreed. “Music makes the world a better place.” “Do you play an instrument?” he asked. Kathy looked at the piano. For years, she had worked for others, having little time and money for herself. “I used to,” she said and added with a smile, “and I will again.” Kathy finally got her own key to happiness. 32．What made Kathy worried at the beginning of the story? A．Her parents’ business failed. B．Her daughter missed a lesson. C．She didn’t have enough money. D．She was too busy to buy a gift. 33．Where did Kathy see the piano again? A．At Delia’s place. B．In New Zealand. C．In a local dance school. D．At an underground station. 34．Why did Kathy say “and I will again” ? A．Because she would get the piano back. B．Because the gentleman gave her courage. C．Because she could now care about herself. D．Because she hoped to make the world better. 35．What would be the best title for the passage? A．A Gift from Mum B．A Beautiful Piano C．The Magic of Music D．The Key to Happiness D Did you take part in any tree-planting activities on March 12 this year? Or maybe you went to check out the little tree you planted a few years ago? Standing beside it, you might have been amazed at how much it has changed. It’s really great to watch a tree grow year by year. Even the tallest ones of them grow from tiny seeds. Have you ever wondered how it happened? A full-grown tree may drop hundreds or even thousands of seeds a year. Inside each seed is something called embryo (胚). Think of it as a small group of cells (细胞). These cells are ready to form roots, stems (茎), and first leaves. Once the covering around the seed gets wet, the embryo cells, which have been patiently waiting, suddenly come to life. They start to grow and break out. This is called germination. First, the roots develop and push out and down into the soil. This makes sure the new plant can get water from the soil. Then the stem grows up and makes the first leaves. As these leaves produce “food” in the sunlight, the plant gets the energy to grow more new leaves. Let’s imagine you drive a nail (钉子) into a tree at one metre above the ground. What will you see when you come back in ten years? The tree will be much taller, but the nail will still be only one metre above the ground. That’s because trees get taller by growing upwards from the top. At the same time, their trunk gets thicker by growing outwards. It is like the tree has two different ways of growing at the same time. The upward growth is like a race towards the sky, reaching for more sunlight, while the outward growth of the trunk is like adding more and more rings of protection and support. As trees get older, they continue to grow taller and thicker. Guess how tall the world’s tallest living tree is? Over 110 metres! That’s as tall as a 30-floor building! Isn’t it amazing? 36．Which one of the pictures shows the stage of germination? A． B． C． D． 37．What can we infer (推断) from the first two paragraphs? A．All the seeds dropped by a tree will grow into big trees. B．The embryo inside the seed is necessary for a tree to grow. C．People only care about the trees they planted themselves. D．Trees can grow tall without going through the seed stage. 38．If a tree trunk gets thicker over time, what will happen to a metal ring put around the bottom of the trunk after 10 years? A．The metal ring will go into the soil. B．The metal ring will be higher off the ground. C．The metal ring will move up and down along the trunk. D．The metal ring will stay at the same height but may embed (嵌入)  in the tree. 39．From the article, we can find the answer to the question “________”. ①How do trees get water from the soil? ②Why does a nail in a tree trunk stay at the same height over time? ③How many seeds does a full-grown tree drop in its lifetime? ④How tall can the tallest trees in the world grow? ⑤How long does a seed take to grow leaves?

Different from long summer and winter holidays, the spring break is a short but meaningful vacation in spring, usually lasting for two to three days. This year, in many areas of Jiangsu and Sichuan, there was a longer holiday of up to six days because of the Qingming Festival. During the break, students are encouraged to get close to nature, go on family trips, read more books or develop hobbies. Teachers often give light or no homework, allowing students to relax both body and mind. Some schools also design special spring-themed tasks, such as studying plants, recording spring scenes or drawing pictures. They change the outdoor world into a lively classroom. However, the spring break also brings new problems. Many working parents are too busy with their jobs to look after their children during the break. To solve this problem, some schools organize volunteer programmes, sports activities and interest clubs. More schools invite teachers or experts to provide professional (专业的) courses for students. In fact, the spring break is designed to help students keep their study and rest balanced. People hope it can reduce pressure (压力) from heavy study and make school life more colourful. It lets families avoid crowds of people when travelling. Therefore, people can enjoy a better travel experience in a more comfortable way.
