Priya used to hate Mondays. Not because of math tests, but because of library period. That was when Mrs. Tandon asked students to read aloud.
Every Sunday night, Priya’s stomach would hurt. “I feel sick,” she told her mother. Every Monday morning, she pressed her hands against her belly and walked to the nurse’s office. Her face looked pale, but her heart beat fast with fear. She was not really ill. She was just afraid.
Priya had trouble with words. When she looked at a page, the letters seemed to dance. The other children read smoothly, but her voice shook. Last month, a boy laughed when she said “dog” instead of “god.” She wanted to disappear.
This went on for four Mondays. Then one Tuesday, Mrs. Tandon found Priya under the old tree in the school garden.
“Priya,” she said gently, “may I sit with you?” Priya nodded, but she did not look up.
“Reading is like climbing a mountain,” Mrs. Tandon said. “Nobody runs to the top alone.” Her voice was warm. Tears filled Priya’s eyes. “I just want friends,” Priya whispered. “Not pity.”
Mrs. Tandon smiled. “Then let us try something new.” The next week, she started a “Reading Buddy” plan. She put Priya together with Aarav, a small boy from Grade 1. He loved stories but needed help with big words. “You look at the pictures, and I will read the words,” Priya told him. Her voice was soft, but Aarav listened carefully. He did not laugh. He just smiled and pointed at the next picture.
Week by week, something changed. Priya’s voice grew steady. The letters stopped dancing. And Aarav listened carefully to every word she read. “Again!” he said when they finished a book. Priya began to arrive early on Mondays, carrying picture books for her little partner.
By the end of the term, Priya no longer walked to the nurse’s office. She walked to the library instead. She finally understood: everyone carries his own problems. The bravest thing is not to hide them, but to let someone walk beside you until you find your own strength.
24. How did Priya feel when she looked at a page during library period?
A. She felt excited. B. She felt confused. C. She felt proud. D. She felt relaxed.
25. What happened to Priya after she joined the “Reading Buddy” plan?
A. She stopped going to school on Mondays.
B. She became more confident in reading aloud.
C. She decided to teach Mrs. Tandon how to read.
D. She asked her mother to call the nurse every week.
26. What can we learn from Priya’s experience?
A. It is better to hide our problems from others.
B. Facing difficulties alone shows true courage.
C. Accepting help from others can help us grow.
D. Working hard is the best way to succeed.
C
Imagine a tool you could use to help you improve the performance of your mind and body. Well, it is your lungs! By simply changing how fast or slow you breathe, you can get many benefits. Here are two main breathing methods: slow breathing and fast breathing.
Slow breathing means breathing at a very slow speed — about six breaths a minute. That is half the normal rate (速率) or even less. This type of breathing helps you control stress, feel more relaxed, and think more clearly, especially in difficult situations, like before a test.
Fast breathing means breathing at a much faster speed — about 25 to 60 breaths a minute. That is much faster than normal. This type of breathing helps you feel awake and full of energy. It gets you ready for challenging physical tasks, like a 100-meter race or lifting weights.
When you breathe in, your heart rate speeds up, and when you breathe out, it slows down. This is normal and shows your heart is healthy. Have you ever been told to take a deep breath when you felt nervous? By doing that, you were slowing down your heart rate without knowing it, which helped you feel calmer.
These changes are controlled by your nervous system. This system works by itself and has two parts. The “fight or flight” part makes you more active and awake. The “rest and digest” part makes you more relaxed. Your breathing can turn on different parts of this system.
Slow breathing turns on the “rest and digest” part. It slows down your heartbeat and helps you feel calm. It also helps your brain work better, especially when you need to make decisions or control your feelings.
Fast breathing turns on the “fight or flight” part. It speeds up your heartbeat and gets your body ready for action. More oxygen (O2) goes to your muscles, and you get more energy to meet challenges. For example, fast breathing is useful before a short race or lifting heavy things.
Research has clearly shown that breathing methods are important for performance and well-being. When used correctly, they can have many positive effects. Think about how you can use your breath to change the way you think, feel, and act when you need to be your best. Remember — breathing is a superpower!
27. According to the passage, which breathing method should you use before a math competition?
A. Slow breathing. B. Fast breathing. C. Normal breathing. D. Light breathing.
28. What can we learn from the passage?
A. People should use fast breathing when they feel nervous.
B. Slow breathing works better than fast breathing in daily life.
C. Breathing faster than 60 breaths a minute brings the most energy.
D. Breathing methods affect the body by working on the nervous system.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Speed of Breathing B. The Power of Breathing
C. The Ways to Change Your Mind D. The Ways to Control Your Feelings
D
Why Athletes Should Wear Light-Colored Clothing in Hot Weather
Have you ever noticed that many athletes prefer light-colored clothes in hot summer? Most people think it is just a matter of fashion or personal habit. However, studies show that clothing color actually has a surprising influence on athletes’ performance in hot weather.
Some people might think that the color of a T-shirt does not really matter. They may say, “It is just a color. How can it affect your performance?” But a recent study has proved this idea wrong. In fact, research has shown that wearing a black T-shirt in hot weather can hurt an athlete’s performance — not physically, but mentally.
Scientists did a research on young tennis players in 32℃ weather. They divided the players into two groups: one in white T-shirts and the other in black ones. Surprisingly, Although both groups had the same body temperature and drank about the same amount of water, the players in black T-shirts felt very different. Players in black felt much more tired and uncomfortable. They even thought they were making greater efforts than they actually did.
Why does this happen? The answer may lie in a common belief. Most people think that black clothing absorbs (吸收) more heat and makes you hotter. This belief is so strong that it can actually change how you feel during exercise. Even if players say they never pay attention to their T-shirt color, the belief still affects them. This shows that our minds can play tricks on us. Therefore, doing something as simple as choosing a white T-shirt over a black one can help athletes feel better and perform better in the heat.
So, what should athletes do? The answer is clear and simple. First, always wear light-colored clothing when training outdoors on hot days. White, light gray, or light blue are good choices. Second, change your T-shirt if it gets too wet with sweat. Third, drink cool water regularly and take breaks in cool shade. These steps are easy to follow, but they can make a real difference.
Some still doubt that such a small choice is not worth caring about. Some might argue that training harder is what really matters. Proper training is important, but we should never ignore (忽视) easy and useful ways to improve performance. Winning in sports often comes from small advantages. If wearing a white T-shirt can help you feel less tired and more comfortable, why would you not do it?
All in all, light-colored clothes help athletes feel more comfortable and less tired in hot weather. Never let a simple choice of clothing color influence your state. Smart choices always support better performance. Choose white, feel better, and play your best.
30. According to the study on young tennis players, what’s the difference between the two groups?
A. Players in black T-shirts drank more water to reduce heat.
B. Players in white T-shirts made greater efforts in the training.
C. Players in white T-shirts had lower body temperature than those in black.
D. Players in black T-shirts felt more tired though their physical state was the same.
31. The underlined phrase “play tricks on” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.
A. cheat B. protect C. challenge D. encourage
32. What does the writer think of the idea that “training harder is what really matters” in Paragraph 6?
A. He doesn’t care about the idea and focuses on the study results.
B. He completely agrees with it and thinks clothing color is unimportant.
C. He disagrees with it and thinks training needs proper clothing to work.
D. He thinks training is important, but small choices like clothing color also matter.
33. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce a new study on athletes’ clothing color.
B. To explain why black clothing makes people feel hotter.
C. To advise athletes to wear light-colored clothing in hot weather.
D. To argue that training is more important than clothing color.

Chinese Calligraphy
Chinese calligraphy is one of the greatest art forms in Chinese culture. In 2009, UNESCO officially recognized it as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (人类非物质文化遗产). It has a history of more than 3,000 years. The earliest examples come from the Shang Dynasty (商朝), when people carved characters onto bones and shells.
Over the centuries, calligraphy developed through different styles. In the Qin Dynasty, Prime Minister Li Si created the small seal script to meet the growing need for records. However, it was too slow to write, which led to the official script — faster and with straighter lines. Later, the regular script developed, which has clear corners and straight strokes (笔画) of different thicknesses.
The Tang Dynasty is seen as the golden age of calligraphy. Masters like Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing set standards for later generations. During this time, calligraphy skill became very important. Anyone who wanted a government job had to write well in regular script. The Chinese still use this script today in print and daily life. Two other styles, running script and cursive script, also became popular. Running script is faster and more flowing, while cursive script is even more free and artistic.
Calligraphy is more than beautiful writing. In ancient China, good handwriting was a sign of education and moral character (品德). Many great poets and thinkers were also famous calligraphers. Their works remain national treasures, and calligraphy continues to attract interest worldwide as a symbol of Chinese civilization (文明).
For students, learning calligraphy offers valuable lessons. It requires careful attention to every stroke, helping build patience and focus. In today’s digital world, calligraphy provides a chance to slow down. The slow, repeated brush movements create a sense of calm, helping students manage stress.
Moreover, calligraphy connects students with their cultural roots (根源). By studying ancient masters, they learn core Chinese values (核心价值观) — harmony (和谐), discipline (自律), and respect for hard work. In an age of computers, calligraphy offers a rare link to the past. It builds character, preserves culture, and brings inner peace. Tradition can still bring meaning to modern life.
34. How long is the history of Chinese calligraphy?
35. In ancient China, what was good handwriting a sign of?
36. Which style of Chinese calligraphy is more free and artistic, running script or cursive script?
37. Do you think calligraphy is still important for students today? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons.)
