(One October afternoon, Anne welcomed her best friend Diana to Green Gables for afternoon tea.)
Scene One
Before going out, Marilla reminded her daughter Anne, “The raspberry cordial (树莓果汁) is on the kitchen table. Be careful and don’t take the wrong bottle.”
“I won’t,” Anne answered. She wanted everything to be perfect for Diana.
On the kitchen table stood a bottle filled with a bright red drink. It looked just like raspberry cordial, so Anne poured it into Diana’s glass without thinking twice.
Diana drank one glass, then another. In no time, her face turned red. She began to laugh loudly and could hardly stand. Anne grew worried, but she still didn’t know what had gone wrong.
Scene Two
Not long after, Mrs Barry, Diana’s mother, learned what her daughter had drunk. She hurried to Green Gables, her face full of anger.
“What drink did you give my daughter? That was not raspberry cordial!” she cried.
Marilla checked the bottle. “It is currant wine (酒),” she said, totally amazed!
Mrs Barry turned to Anne. “Diana is not allowed to come here again!”
Anne stood there silently, feeling sorry and heartbroken.
Scene Three
Several days later, Diana ran into Green Gables.
“Oh, Anne, do come quick! Minnie May is awfully sick. Father and Mother are away. I don’t know what to do!” Diana’s voice shook and tears rolled down her face.
Anne didn’t waste a moment and went with her at once.
Scene Four
Remembering what she had learned while caring for sick children in hospital before, Anne stayed calm and worked patiently all night until a doctor finally arrived. Minnie May felt much better.
The next day, Mrs Barry went to Green Gables with some fresh flowers for Anne.
“Anne,” she smiled and said gently, “I’m truly sorry. I shouldn’t have kept you and Diana apart. I supposed you might hurt her, but now I realize you never would. If it’s all right with you, Diana may visit you again.”
Anne said nothing, but her eyes shone softly. She had made a careless mistake, but from it she learned the true meaning of friendship.
—Adapted from Anne of Green Gables

People know animals do have feelings, but they are not sure if these feelings are correctly understood. In recent years, scientists have done research about the feelings of cows, frogs and pandas. A new study adds chickens to the list. It says that humans can tell whether a chicken is happy or sad by listening to its calls.
The researchers put a bowl behind a door. Inside the bowl, sometimes, there was something chickens love to eat, such as rice or insects. Sometimes, there was nothing. When the chickens saw food behind the door, they seemed happy and produced fast and loud sounds, known as food calls. When there wasn’t food, the chickens made low and long noises to express disappointment. The researchers recorded all these sounds and studied their waves.
Then the researchers chose 16 recordings of such chicken noises. Half were from the chickens seeing the food and half were from the chickens finding no food. The recordings were played to 194 volunteers. Sixty-nine percent of the volunteers correctly understood whether the chickens were feeling happy or not, and some of them even had no experience of taking care of chickens.
The result shows that humans have the natural ability to understand the feelings of chickens.
Hopefully, this finding can bring about new technology to help with chicken-raising, a big industry in many countries. Some scientists are already working on a smart computer program that can ascertain chickens’ feelings. This is good news for farmers who want to make the birds happier and healthier.
8. Which is most probably the sound wave of a happy call by a chicken?
A. B. C. D.
9. How did the volunteers help with the research?
A. By listening to the chicken calls. B. By taking care of the chickens.
C. By finding food for the chickens. D. By making the chickens happy.
10. What does the underlined word “ascertain” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Control. B. Hide. C. Recognize. D. Hurt.
11. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Chickens’ Food Calls
B. Happy Chickens, Sad Chickens
C. Farmers’ Best Choice
D. Smart Farmers, Healthy Farmers

①During the Han Dynasty people preferred small waists, while in the Tang Dynasty people admired plumpness (圆润), considering it a symbol of beauty. Until this day, people’s build is still a hot topic.
②Now some girls don’t feel confident if they have a pear-shaped build, with hips that are wider than the bust and shoulders. Many pear-shaped girls try to hide their hips and legs under large dresses and pants.
③However, a recent study suggested that pear-shaped people are the ones who won the genetic lottery (基因彩票)!
④The study by the US National Library of Medicine found that the waist-to-hip ratio (WHR, 腰臀比) shows the strongest relationship with death. Traditionally, the BMI (体重指数) has been considered the best way to judge whether a person is healthy or not. However, this study challenges this conclusion. After surveying nearly 40,000 people, scientists found no matter what a person’s BMI is, the larger his WHR is, the easier he will die. Instead of focusing on how much fat a person has, scientists suggest people should focus more on where the fat is in a person’s body.
⑤WHR, as its name suggests, compares your waist to your hip. A larger waist means morecentral fat, which could mean more visceral fat (内脏脂肪). More visceral fat increases the risk of illnesses. That’s why people with a pear-shaped body are always healthier than others. According to the World Health Organization, a healthy WHR is less than 0.85 for women and less than 0.9 for men.
⑥Researchers from Johns Hopkins University suggested we should focus more on health instead of the build. As middle school students, since we are growing, it’s pretty common to put on some weight and get bigger. We can’t control our natural body types, but we can control our health.
12. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Small waist. B. Plumpness. C. The good build. D. Pear-shaped body.
13. Which of the following should girls focus more on according to the passage?
A. They should try to keep their BMI as low as possible to get good health.
B. They should keep their WHR within the healthy limit of less than 0.85.
C. They only need to make their waists as small as possible to look pretty.
D. They should focus on cutting down both BMI and WHR to the lowest.
14. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage?
A. ①②/③/④/⑤⑥ B. ①/②/③④/⑤⑥
C. ①②/③/④⑤/⑥ D. ①/②/③④⑤/⑥
15. What may happen according to the passage?
A. Pear-shaped girls will stop wearing large clothes.
B. Doctors won’t use BMI to check people’s health.
C. People will care more about WHR for health.
D. Schools will teach more about body shapes.

After-school activities can be a wonderful thing and continue our children’s education through the school holidays. However any old activity does not do the right job, every activity should be useful and helpful and of course, enjoyable. So what matters when we make the decision as to what our youngster is going to take part in?
Above all, you should know what you expect your child to learn from the activity, for example, learning how to play a musical instrument, how to draw-or whatever. Any activity should be a challenge (挑战) to a child. Taking on the challenge and achievement can help a quiet or shy child become more confident.
Safety must be the most important thing that you should consider any activity. But remember nothing can be made to be 100% safe and still be interesting. Before deciding this is the course you want your child to be part of, you should talk to an instructor and ask questions. Be careful of the activity itself with too much competition because that can cause problems and kill off enjoyment. Do not forget that this is costing you money so try to be sure that you are getting value for it. Of course there’s no doubt that discussing things with your child first is also a good idea.
Parents have different opinions about it, though. On the one hand there are those who decide all the things for the child and adults make the running. On the other hand there are those who much prefer to leave the child to choose on his or her own and decide what they want to do during their holiday. Some say that the second method encourages children to better think for themselves and that the first makes them depend more on adults. Only you can decide which one you are and which is the best for you and your child. Remember that you are only young once and childhood will be gone soon forever. All work and no play is not the idea.
41. After-school activities can be ________ and continue our children’s ________ through the school holidays.
42. One should know what his child is ________ to learn if he or she takes part in an activity. Challenging activities and achievement can improve a quiet or shy child’s confidence.
43. You should consider ________ the most important thing of any activity.
44. Why should you be careful of the activity itself with too much competition?

45. What after-school activity do you often take part in? What do you think of it?

Labour Is Meaningful
Labour is an important part of our life. I often do various kinds of labour. At home, I help my parents with housework like tidying my bedroom, washing dishes and watering the flowers every day. At school, I take part in the campus cleaning activity every Friday afternoon. Last month, I also joined a volunteer labour team to help clean up the community park.
Labour has brought me a lot. It makes me more independent and teaches me to take responsibility. I have learned to value the hard work of others and understand that every small effort counts. I used to be lazy, but now I am willing to take on more tasks and enjoy the process of working.
I truly believe that labour is meaningful. I hope all my classmates can take part in more labour activities. Let's experience the joy and value of labour together!
