Everyone makes mistakes. The important thing is not to be afraid. You are just teenagers. Remember that messing up from time to time is part of growing up. Mistakes are important. When you mess something up, it’s easy to feel bad. However, mistakes give your brain a chance to think about what it’s doing and learn, so you will get things right in the future. When you fall off a bike, your brain creates electrical activity. This sends a signal to the rest of your brain before you even hit the ground. Studies show these signals teach you to be more careful next time. How can they help? Making mistakes makes you stronger. England footballer Lauren Hemp, who won the Women’s Euros with the Lionesses this summer, says sometimes the team makes “mistake after mistake” in matches, but this just makes them want to play better. What seems like a disaster at the time can sometimes be funny afterwards. So if you worry about saying the wrong thing in class, you could be sharing a joke about it soon. Face up to failures. The best way to learn from your mistakes is to face up to them. Trying to feel comfortable when things go wrong might feel like a strange way to deal with failure, but it’s a more positive way forward. This is because when you’re not being hard on yourself, it’s easier to learn and this helps you do things differently next time. 1. According to the passage, how do mistakes help your brain?

According to a UK survey, having a messy bedroom is the third most common reason for a family argument. What do you think, is it OK to have a messy bedroom? ②Some people believe having a messy room is okay for kids. A messy room is like a teenager’s own little world. They can hang posters or leave clothes on the floor without someone telling them “Clean up!” This space teaches them to make choices and feel free to be themselves. Parents can help by staying out of the room. If the mess worries them, they can close the door. Most teenagers have messy rooms because they’re busy with friends, hobbies, or school. But they will probably grow out of it and learn to be more organized. ③Also, some studies show that messiness can be a sign of creativity and it’s more likely to free one’s mind for deep-thinking. Cleaning up the room is boring and time-wasting, and there are more meaningful things to do, like work, hobbies and friends. Anyway, the chances are that it will just get messy again! ④However, research shows that untidy environment can cause more stress and make it harder for teenagers to focus on homework. Instead, a tidy room can make them happy and help them think more clearly while dealing with difficult tasks in the room. What’s more, one may knock something onto the floor by accident and break it in a messy room. And it is unfair on the rest of the family if one of the rooms looks like a rubbish place—it is part of their home too and we should respect that. In a word, a tidy room is nice for everyone and, best of all, means no arguments. 1. What do people argue about according to the passage? A．Whether parents should set their kids free. B．Whether children should share housework. C．Whether kids should have their own space. D．Whether it is necessary to keep rooms tidy. 2. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Keeping rooms clean. B．Having a messy room. C．Arguing with parents. D．Preparing for future life. 3. Which can support the opinion of keeping rooms in order? A．Children can be free to throw things everywhere. B．It takes much time for children to clean bedrooms. C．Kids can focus on tasks and improve clear thinking. D．It helps children be more creative and open-minded. 4. What can be the structure of the passage? A． B． C．D． 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C 4. C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，围绕“孩子的卧室是否可以杂乱”展开讨论。 【详解】1. 根据第一段中“According to a UK survey, having a messy bedroom is the third most common reason for a family argument.”可知，争论围绕是否需要保持房间整洁展开。 2. 根据it所在句子的前句“Most teenagers have messy rooms because they’re busy with friends, hobbies, or school.”可知，it指代的是“having a messy room”这一行为。 3. 根据第四段中“Instead, a tidy room can make them happy and help them think more clearly while dealing with difficult tasks in the room.”可知，整洁房间利于专注任务、清晰思考。 4. 通读文章可知，本文第一段总起提出话题，第二、三并列阐述赞同房间杂乱的两种理由，第四段转折论述要保持整洁，结构为总分：①总——②③分述1+④分述2。 Passage 11 I’ve had a long argument with a girl named Summer ever since we met in kindergarten (幼儿园). It all started with a small cubby (小柜子). Six-year-old Summer asked me to take my backpack out of “her” cubby.      “You don’t own this cubby,” six-year-old me replied. “Why don’t you just use a different cubby?” “I’ve been using this cubby all week,” said Summer. “You’re the one who needs to use a different cubby!” “Well,” I said. “I don’t think you’re being very friendly.” “Well,” said Summer.“Maybe that’s because you’re not my friend!” In the first grade, during a ball game, we argued again. Summer said I was out of the game because the ball bounced twice, but I knew it only bounced once by the rule. She said I was a sore loser, and I said the same about her. In the third grade, we had another disagreement when we were in the chess club. I questioned her move (走棋), and she got angry, saying the wrong move was that she agreed to play with me. As you can see, ________. But something surprising changed us. We both acted as rabbits in our school’s winter play. At first, we tried to pay no attention to each other. But our director, Mr. Jackson, knew we had problems with each other and wanted to help. So he asked us to team up and sing a song together. We were nervous but agreed. During rehearsals (排练), we practised over and over again in order to give a wonderful performance on the stage and we started talking with each other before the big show. We knew our memories of past arguments were completely different. We ended up laughing about those silly fights. After lots of practice, our performance was a great success, and the audience couldn’t stop laughing. I learnt that not everyone gets along well at first, but sometimes, a conversation can turn enemies into friends. 1. What was the first argument between the writer and Summer about? A．A ball game rule. B．A chess move in the club. C．A cubby in kindergarten. D．A song in the school play. 2. How did Summer feel when the writer questioned her move? A．Angry. B．Nervous. C．Surprised. D．Worried. 3. Which of the following can be put into “________” in Paragraph 8? A．Summer and I always had fun. B．Summer and I never got along. C．Summer was always friendly to me. D．Summer and I never played together. 4. What did the writer learn from the experience? A．School plays need careful practice. B．Following rules is important in games. C．It’s easy to get along with others at first. D．Conversations can turn enemies into friends. 【答案】1. C 2. A 3. B 4. D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者和宿敌Summer从幼儿园到小学，从不断争吵到通过一次校园演出化解矛盾、成为朋友的成长故事。 【详解】1. 根据文章第一段第二句“It all started with a small cubby”以及后续描述可知，作者与Summer的第一次争执发生在幼儿园，原因是关于一个小柜子的使用权（A cubby in kindergarten）。 2. 根据文章第七段“I questioned her move...and she got angry”可知，当作者质疑Summer的棋步时，Summer感到生气（angry）。 3. 空缺处位于第八段开头，前文详细描述了两人从幼儿园到三年级的多次争执，后文用“But something surprising changed us”进行转折。因此，空缺处应是对前文两人长期关系不和的总结。选项B“Summer and I never got along”符合语境。 4. 根据文章最后一句“I learnt that not everyone gets along well at first, but sometimes, a conversation can turn enemies into friends”可知，作者从这次经历中学到的道理是：对话有时能将敌人变成朋友（Conversations can turn enemies into friends）。 Passage 12 Ne Zha 2 The animated film Ne Zha 2, released on January 29, 2025, has become a huge success in the film industry. Directed by the famous Jiaozi (Yang Yu), it continues the exciting story of Ne Zha and Ao Bing from the first movie. After surviving a terrible disaster called the “Heavenly Tribulation”, Ne Zha and Ao Bing lost their physical bodies. Their souls were in great danger until Taiyi Zhenren, a wise immortal from Chinese mythology, saved them using a magical seven-colored lotus. However, peace did not last long. Their souls began to disappear again, forcing Taiyi Zhenren to face a difficult task—rebuilding their bodies with limited materials while solving unexpected problems. The film shows remarkable character growth. Ne Zha, once known for his rebellious nature, learns to care deeply for his friends and understand his true self. His friend Ao Bing, who used to struggle with personal troubles, transforms into a brave warrior. In one powerful scene, Ao Bing declares courageously, “If there’s no path, I’ll create one!” Visually, the movie is a feast for the eyes. It begins with thrilling scenes of flowing lava like wild rivers and terrifying sea monsters jumping out of the water, making viewers feel as if they are part of the action. Later, the story takes the audience to Kunlun Mountain, a magical place from Chinese myths filled with colorful landscapes and graceful fairy-like creatures. The most unforgettable part is the final battle, where characters use amazing weapons like the shape-changing Tianyuan Ding. The fast-paced fighting and brilliant special effects leave a strong impression. Beyond the action, Ne Zha 2 teaches important life lessons. It encourages people to stay brave when facing difficulties, fight for what is right, and value friendship. These themes resonate with both young and adult audiences. The film has broken box office records, earning an astonishing amount in its first week. It also received high praise from critics and viewers, currently holding an 8.6/10 rating on major review platforms. Many praise its perfect mix of cultural elements, exciting storytelling, and positive messages. 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A．To introduce the director of Ne Zha 2.

C 【导语】本文围绕《哪吒2》的剧情和特点展开介绍。 1. 文章开篇介绍了《哪吒2》的上映时间及导演等基本信息，接着讲述了电影的剧情（如“天劫”后哪吒和敖丙的遭遇、角色成长等），还描述了电影视觉效果、精彩战斗场景等特点，以及电影传达的主题、票房和评价等。整体是在描述《哪吒2》的剧情和特点。 2. 根据第二段“After surviving a terrible disaster called the ‘Heavenly Tribulation’, Ne Zha and Ao Bing lost their physical bodies. Their souls were in great danger until Taiyi Zhenren, a wise immortal from Chinese mythology, saved them using a magical seven-colored lotus. However, peace did not last long. Their souls began to disappear again...”可知，在“天劫”之后，哪吒和敖丙失去了肉身，灵魂也处于危险之中。 3. 由第四段“The most unforgettable part is the final battle, where characters use amazing weapons like the shape-changing Tianyuan Ding. The fast-paced fighting and brilliant special effects leave a strong impression.”可知，电影的最后一战令人难忘是因为角色使用了神奇的武器，并且有快节奏的战斗和精彩的特效。 4. 从第五段“Beyond the action, Ne Zha 2 teaches important life lessons. It encourages people to stay brave when facing difficulties, fight for what is right, and value friendship.”可知，《哪吒2》教给人们的人生道理是面对困难要勇敢、为正义而战以及珍惜友谊。 Passage 13 How do you keep cool on hot summer days? You might turn on your air conditioner (空调), right? But in India, only about 20 percent of families own one. The rest have to face rising temperatures without any cooling tools. Now, an old material is stepping in to help: terracotta (赤陶土). Ancient Indians used terracotta pots to store water. These pots are still common in the Indian countryside today. They help people cool water without using electricity. The material is quite economical: each pot costs only one U.S. dollar. So, how do these pots work? Well, terracotta has many tiny holes on its surface that are very hard to see. These holes allow water to slowly dry up. As the water dries up, it carries heat away and makes the pot and the water inside cooler. Many Indian architects (建筑师) have got great ideas from this simple cooling way. They now use terracotta in their buildings to control indoor temperatures. Ant Studio is one of the first companies to do this. It adds a terracotta “skin (皮肤)” to buildings. With the help of the “skin”, the buildings cool off. “We have already done tests across more than 30 places in India,” says the company, “and we’ve seen indoor temperature drops by 6-8 ℃.” Other Indian companies are joining in. One company recycles old terracotta to make special “breathing” walls, which work much like Ant Studio’s terracotta “skin”. Another has developed terracotta fridges that can keep food fresh for three to five days without electricity. These can be really helpful for homes with no electricity. Many researchers believe terracotta may make a big difference to our warming earth. As word spreads, the material may become more widely used. We could all stay cool without using lots of energy. 1. What does the underlined word “economical” in Para.2 probably mean? A．cheap B．special C．smooth D．green 2. How does a terracotta pot cool water? A．By having a special material inside. B．By using an electric cooling machine. C．By letting water dry through tiny holes. D．By keeping water away from sunlight. 3. Which is a new use of terracotta now? A．To store cool drinking water. B．To make walls that can cool the air. C．To keep food fresh for weeks. D．To produce electricity for buildings. 4. What is the purpose of the text? A．To call on people to protect the traditional art. B．To explain why the earth is becoming warmer. C．To encourage people to buy terracotta products. D．To show an old material used for modern cooling. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. B 4. D 【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文，介绍了印度古老材料赤陶土 (terracotta) 在现代生活中的新应用——无需用电即可实现降温，为应对炎热天气提供了环保方案。 【详解】1. 第二段提到“each pot costs only one U.S. dollar”，说明赤陶土容器价格低廉，因此“economical”表示“便宜的”，对应“cheap”。 2. 第三段提到“terracotta has many tiny holes on its surface... These holes allow water to slowly dry up. As the water dries up, it carries heat away and makes the pot and the water inside cooler.”，说明赤陶土容器通过让水从微小孔洞中蒸发带走热量来冷却水温。 3. 第四段提到建筑师将赤陶土用于建筑降温，第五段提到“One company recycles old terracotta to make special ‘breathing walls’, which work much like Ant Studio’s terracotta ‘skin’”，说明新用途是制作可冷却空气的墙壁。 4. 文章先介绍赤陶土这种古老材料，再说明其在现代建筑、冰箱等领域的新降温应用，核心是展示“古老材料用于现代降温”的环保方案。 Passage 14 Have you ever written letters? Letter writing is a traditional way to make friends who live far away feel closer. Letters can cross time and space. They build up a relationship that’s hard to find in today’s digital world. On 8 September, 2024, Jin Xiaoyu held a book sharing event for The Letters of Walter Benjamin. The book has over 300 letters from Walter Benjamin, a famous writer from Germany. These letters show deep friendship between Benjamin and his friends. The Letters of Walter Benjamin reminds us of the importance of keeping in touch with others through letters. In the past, sending or receiving letters by horse or by bird was usual. However, this form of communication seems less common today. Now children can hardly enjoy this kind of joy. A group named ReachOut provided teenagers with chances to write letters about their feelings and experiences. Linda Williams, a worker of ReachOut, said, “Letter writing can help us express feelings. And it also helps us keep in touch with others.” Dr Maria Nicholas from Deakin University said, “Handwriting is still an important part of the school course. It is good for children’s learning, reading and memory.” Also, she advised children to write letters to friends, family, or their favorite writers. The experiences are useful for children. They make children express their feelings more often through writing. All in all, letter writing is a special way to connect with others and express ourselves. It’s a tradition worth continuing, especially for young people. As Dr Nicholas said, letter writing in schools is good for children’s learning. Let’s encourage children to experience the joy of writing letters. 1. How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By asking a question. C．By showing a fact. D．By singing a song. 2. Which of the following would Linda Williams most probably agree with? A．Letter writing is bad for friendship. B．People can communicate by writing letters. C．Letter writing can help children improve speaking skills. D．Writing letters wastes time. 3. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Handwriting. B．A letter. C．The school course. D．An email. 4. Which can be the best title for the text? A．A Book Sharing Event. B．The History of Writing Letters. C．The Importance of Letter Writing. D．Explore life. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. A 4. C 【导语】本文主要讲述了书信写作在当今数字时代的意义，通过金晓宇的新书分享会、ReachOut组织的活动以及Dr. Maria Nicholas的观点，论证了书信写作对情感表达、人际关系和儿童学习的重要性。 【详解】1. 根据文章第一段第一句“Have you ever written letters?”（你写过信吗？）可知，作者是通过提出一个问题的方式来开始这篇文章的。 2. 根据第二段中Linda Williams说的话“And it also helps us keep in touch with others.”（它也能帮助我们与他人保持联系）可知，她认为写信是一种沟通方式，有助于人们保持联系。选项B“人们可以通过写信进行交流”符合其观点。 3. 根据第三段“Handwriting is still an important part of the school course.”（书写仍然是学校课程的重要组成部分）以及“It is good for children’s learning...”（它对孩子们的学习……有好处）可知，划线词“It”指代的是前一句的主语“Handwriting”。 4. 通读全文可知，文章介绍了书信作为一种传统沟通方式的价值，引用了专家观点说明写信对情感表达、人际沟通及儿童学习的好处，并鼓励孩子们体验写信的乐趣。选项C“写信的重要性”最能概括文章中心思想。 三、完形填空： 阅读下面短文，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Passage 15 On April 19 at 8:20 a.m., a red figure ran across the finish line of a half-marathon race in Beijing. It was me, Flashing, and I had just made 1 . I’m not talking about human history. I’m a humanoid (人形的) robot designed 2 the company Honor. There was no 3 for a good night’s sleep before my race, or time to catch my breath. My biggest challenge was not hitting others on the 4 field: over 300 robots took part in it. I finished in 50 minutes and 26 seconds, faster than any of the 12,000 human runners. I 5 beat the human world-record holder, Jacob Kiplimo of Uganda. No wonder people clapped and 6 as I crossed the line. But were they cheering just for me? Much of the honor should go to my 7 . Designing and perfecting a winning robot is a marathon in itself. Have you ever 8 why my legs are over 90 centimeters long while my arms are so small? They are 9 shaped after the world’s best human athletes. I also have a special cooling system, so I’m less likely to overheat. However, cooling remains a big 10 for other humanoids. Many of my competitors couldn’t run fast simply because their motors (马达) became too 11 during the race. Last year, when the first robot half marathon was held, many competitors had to 12 halfway. The fastest robot finished in two hours and 40 minutes — it took longer time than 13 . Maybe Robot runners do not show the same strength and courage as humans, 14 this race does show just as much spirit. What does the future hold? When can we run fast enough in accidents to help 15 lives? Part of the answer may come from you. 1. A．interviews B．decisions C．history D．pleasure 2. A．as B．by C．into D．with 3. A．need B．reason C．mind D．plan 4. A．special B．safe C．clean D．crowded 5. A．never B．seldom C．even D．just 6. A．cheered B．laughed C．waited D．talked 7. A．fans B．competitors C．friends D．engineers 8.

C 12. C 13. B 14. B 15. D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以第一人称的口吻讲述了人形机器人Flashing在北京半程马拉松比赛中打破人类世界纪录的故事，展现了机器人技术的进步及其未来在救援等领域的应用前景。 【详解】1. 句意：是我，Flashing，我刚刚创造了历史。 根据下文“I’m not talking about human history.”可知，此处指创造了历史，make history为固定搭配。 2. 句意：我是一个由Honor公司设计的人形机器人。 根据语境可知，机器人是“被”Honor公司设计的，被动语态后常接介词by表示动作的执行者。 3. 句意：在比赛前我不需要睡个好觉，也没有时间喘口气。 根据语境可知，机器人不需要睡觉，There is no need for...是固定句型，意为“不需要……”。 4. 句意：我最大的挑战是在拥挤的赛场上不撞到别人：有超过300个机器人参加了比赛。 根据后文“over 300 robots took part in it”可知，赛场上有超过300个机器人，所以是拥挤的。 5. 句意：我甚至击败了人类世界纪录保持者，乌干达的Jacob Kiplimo。 前文提到比12000名人类跑者都快，此处进一步递进，表示“甚至”击败了世界纪录保持者。never表示“从不”；seldom表示“很少”；just表示“仅仅”，均不符合语境。 6. 句意：难怪当我冲过终点线时，人们鼓掌欢呼。 根据前文“clapped”以及下文“were they cheering just for me?”可知，人们在鼓掌和欢呼。 7. 句意：大部分的荣誉应该归功于我的工程师们。 根据下文“Designing and perfecting a winning robot...”可知，设计和完善机器人的是工程师。 8. 句意：你有没有想过为什么我的腿超过90厘米长，而我的手臂却这么小？ 根据语境可知，此处是作者向读者提问，询问读者是否“想知道/好奇过”这个现象，Have you ever wondered...为常见句型。 9. 句意：它们是被精心按照世界上最好的人类运动员的体型塑造的。 根据前文“Designing and perfecting a winning robot is a marathon in itself.”可知，设计机器人是一个精益求精的过程，因此是“精心”塑造的。 10. 句意：然而，散热对于其他人形机器人来说仍然是一个大问题。 根据下文“Many of my competitors couldn’t run fast simply because their motors became too...”可知，散热不佳导致跑不快，所以这是一个大问题。 11. 句意：我的许多竞争对手跑不快，仅仅是因为他们的马达在比赛中变得太热了。 根据前文提到的“cooling system”和“overheat”可知，跑不快是因为马达太热了。 12. 句意：去年，当第一届机器人半程马拉松举行时，许多参赛者不得不在中途退出。 根据语境可知，很多机器人没能完成比赛，中途退赛了。look around表示“环顾四周”；go off 表示“爆炸，离开”；drop out表示“退出”；pull down表示“拆毁”，均不符合语境。 13. 句意：最快的机器人用了两小时四十分钟完成——这比我用的时间长。 作者是机器人Flashing，它用了50分26秒，所以去年的最快纪录比“我”用的时间长。 14. 句意：也许机器人跑者没有展现出和人类一样的力量和勇气，但这场比赛确实展现了同样多的精神。 前后句意存在转折关系，表示虽然没有人类那样的力量和勇气，但是展现了精神。 15. 句意：我们什么时候能在事故中跑得足够快去拯救生命？ 根据语境可知，在事故中，机器人的作用是去拯救生命。 Passage 16 I learned the importance of creative thinking many years ago through a simple yet unforgettable physics lesson. One day, our physics teacher gave us an interesting 1 . He told us to make a paper plane of any 2 . The goal was to get it to fly as far as possible in the hallway. Most of us took it seriously. I folded the best plane I could, carefully shaping the wings and the nose (机头). It flew pretty 3 , and I felt proud of myself. However, one boy did something completely 4 . He made the greatest, yet the 5 paper plane. 6 , it wasn’t really a plane at all. He stood at the starting line holding a normal piece of paper, with no folds. Some classmates stretched (伸展) their necks while laughing at 7 , thinking he had no idea what he was doing. But moments later, he took that piece of paper, made it into a 8 , and threw it down the hallway. The paper ball rolled and bounced (弹跳) farther than any of our paper planes. We were so 9 by what he had done. We never expected things to happen like this. All of us were 10 easily by him. Some students got mad and said that it was unfair. The physics teacher smiled and asked, “How so? He didn’t do anything wrong 11 a paper ball is different. It is indeed (确实) a shape.” Yes, the boy didn’t cheat. He just completed the task in a 12 way while the rest of us followed the usual method without thinking. In our life, what we are taught leads to our experience. We do 13 according to it. However, what we 14 gets in the way of our development at some point. It is 15 necessary for us to learn to think outside the box. Just like the boy in the story, we are supposed to think creatively and challenge old rules bravely. 1. A．challenge B．difficulty C．standard D．problem 2. A．color B．weight C．shape D．size 3.

A 【导语】本文讲述作者早年一节物理课上，一名男生打破常规用纸球赢了纸飞机比赛的经历，阐明了跳出固有思维、培养创造性思考的重要性。 【详解】1. 句意：一天，我们的物理老师给了我们一个有趣的挑战。 老师布置了折飞机比谁飞得远的趣味挑战任务，challenge“挑战”符合文意。difficulty“困难”，standard“标准”和problem“问题”不符合语境。 2. 句意：他告诉我们折一架任意形状的纸飞机。 倒数第二段“It is indeed a shape.”明确提到“纸团确实也是一种形状”，说明老师要求做任意形状的纸飞机，shape“形状”符合文意。 3. 句意：它飞得相当远，而且我为自己感到骄傲。 上文“The goal was to get it to fly as far as possible in the hallway.”提及任务目标就是飞得尽可能远，作者折出自认为最好的飞机，飞得挺远，所以很自豪，far“遥远地”符合文意。 4. 句意：然而，一个男孩做了完全不同的事。 倒数第二段“...a paper ball is different.”提及男孩的纸球是不同的，说明这个男孩的做法完全不同，different“不同的”符合文意。 5. 句意：他做了最伟大却最简单的纸飞机。 下文“...he took that piece of paper, made it into a ball, and threw it down the hallway.”描述男孩的纸飞机只用把纸揉成球，应是最简单的纸飞机，simplest“最简单的”符合逻辑。smallest“最小的”，oldest“最旧的”和lightest“最轻的”不符合语境。 6. 句意：事实上，那根本算不上是一架飞机。 此处补充说明事实：它其实根本算不上飞机，In fact“事实上”符合语境。After all“毕竟”，As a result“因此”和Of course“当然”不符合语境。 7. 句意：一些同学伸长脖子嘲笑他，觉得他根本不知道自己在做什么。 同学们都在嘲笑这个男孩，指代男孩用宾格him。 8. 句意：但片刻之后，他拿起那张纸，把它揉成了一个纸团，扔向走廊尽头。 下文“The paper ball...”提示男孩把纸揉成了球，ball“球”符合文意。 9. 句意：我们都对他的所作所为感到非常惊讶。 下文“We never expected things to happen like this.”指出没人料到结果会这样，说明大家都对这个结果感到惊讶，surprised“感到惊讶的”符合情绪变化。moved“感动的”，frightened“害怕的”和encouraged“鼓励”不符合语境。 10. 句意：我们所有人都轻而易举地被他打败了。 上文第三段“The paper ball rolled and bounced (弹跳) farther than any of our paper planes.”提到男孩的纸球飞得最远，所以所有人都被他打败了，过去分词beaten“被打败”符合被动语境。lost“输掉”，hit“击打”和won“赢”不符合语境。 11. 句意：他没做错任何事情，虽然纸球是不同的。 老师解释男孩没有违规：虽然纸球是不同的，但是他没做错什么，用though引导让步状语从句。if和unless表条件，because表原因，均不符合语境。 12. 句意：他只是用创造性的方法完成了任务，而我们其他人都不假思索地遵循了常规方法。 第一句“I learned the importance of creative thinking...”说明作者是从男孩的创造性方式中学到了创造性思维，creative“创造性的”符合文意。 13. 句意：我们根据它做一切事情。 上文“In our life, what we are taught leads to our experience.”提及我们所受的教导会形成我们的经验，我们做所有事都会依照经验，everything“所有事物，一切”符合语境。 14. 句意：然而，我们所学的东西有时会阻碍发展。 此处与上文“what we are taught leads to our experience”对应，表示事物的两面性，“are taught”对应“learned”，我们所受的教导能给我们提供发展经验，但是学到的东西也可以成为发展的阻碍。watched“看”，read“读”和said“说”不形成对应。 15. 句意：对我们而言，学会跳出固有思维思考确实十分有必要。 此处总结观点，强调必要性，用truly“真正地，确实”。likely“可能的”，hardly“几乎不”和nearly“几乎”不符合语境。 Passage 17 Last year, my parents took me on a very special holiday. My dream was to see some real snow, so during the Christmas holiday, we took our passports and 1 over the Pacific to Calgary, Canada. We took a bus to a ski resort (滑雪场) in the Canadian Rockies. As the 2 climbed through the mountains, we saw the thick snow on the trees. I was dying to get out and play with it! At last, we 3 the resort and quickly jumped out of the bus. This was our first experience with 4 . We were like little children — we made snowballs, and threw 5 at one another! After checking in, we could not wait to get out and ski. The next day, we 6 our ski suits and gloves, took our skis and went outside onto the snow. Wearing skis for the first time made me feel strange. I found it 7 to walk but it was fun. Then we had a skiing lesson 8 a young couple. Our coach took us to a gentle slope (斜坡), and showed us some basic skiing 9 . To be honest, that first lesson was not a great 10 . I kept on falling over, and I had to hold on to a rope to keep my balance. However, the next day, I only fell over a few times, and I 11 to do a few rapid runs. I felt pleased with myself, and my coach told me I was doing much better. I spent most of my holiday skiing 12 it was very cold. I had a wonderful time. It was all over too soon! Looking back on this trip, I truly 13 the meaning of “Practice makes perfect.” Never give up and keep trying. That’s how I got better. Skiing taught me that no skill comes 14 . With patience and courage, I could even ski the 15 slopes. The joy of improving was worth it all. 1. A．walked B．swam C．drove D．flew 2. A．bike B．bus C．car D．plane 3.

A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了去年父母带他去加拿大滑雪的经历。从初次尝试的困难到后来的进步，作者体会到了“熟能生巧”的道理。 【详解】1. 句意：我们拿着护照飞越太平洋去了加拿大卡尔加里。 根据前文“passports”和后文“over the Pacific”可知，跨国跨洋旅行通常乘飞机。walked步行、swam游泳、drove开车，都无法跨太平洋。 2. 句意：当公交车爬升穿过山脉时。 根据前文“took a bus to a ski resort”可知，此处指乘坐的公交车。bike自行车、car私家车、plane飞机，和前文交通工具不符。 3. 句意：最后我们到达了度假村，迅速跳下公交车。 根据“jumped out of the bus”可知，下车意味着到达目的地。应选reached。left离开、built建造、remembered记起，不符合语境。 4. 句意：这是我们第一次体验雪。 根据前文“saw the thick snow on the trees”和后文“made snowballs”堆雪球可知，应选snow，这是第一次亲身接触雪。rain雨水、wind风、water水和，堆雪球细节矛盾。 5. 句意：我们做雪球，互相扔它们。 根据前文“snowballs”为复数名词可知，代词应用them。 6. 句意：第二天，我们穿上滑雪服和手套。 根据后文“our ski suits and gloves”滑雪服与手套，出门滑雪需要穿戴装备。应选put on，贴合穿戴衣物的动作。.put off推迟、put away收好、put out熄灭，语义不符。 7. 句意：我发现走路很难，但很有趣。 根据前文“Wearing skis for the first time made me feel strange”可知，初次穿滑雪鞋很别扭。应选difficult。easy容易的、boring无聊的、comfortable舒适的，和strange矛盾。 8. 句意：然后我们和一对年轻夫妇上了一节滑雪课。 have a lesson with somebody为固定搭配，表示“和某人一起上课”。for为了、as作为、through通过，逻辑不通。 9. 句意：教练向我们展示了一些基本的滑雪技巧。 根据前文“Our coach took us to a gentle slope, and showed us some basic skiing”教练在缓坡教学基础滑雪内容。应选skills，教练传授技巧。prices价格、clubs俱乐部、dreams梦想，和教学内容无关。 10. 句意：老实说，第一节课不是很成功。 根据后文“I kept on falling over”可知，不断摔倒意味着不成功。应选success，整节课频频摔倒，算不上一次圆满的体验。habit习惯、goal目标、joke玩笑，不符合句意。 11. 句意：我设法做了几次快速滑行。 根据前文“only fell over a few times”和后文“doing much better”可知，作者成功完成了滑行。manage to do表示设法做成。failed失败、refused拒绝、forgot忘记，和进步的语境相反。 12. 句意：虽然很冷，但我大部分假期都在滑雪。 前半句“I spent most of my holiday skiing”和后半句“it was very cold”，构成让步转折。although引导让步状语从句。but通常连接并列句，此处although更合适。 13. 句意：回首这次旅行，我真正理解了“熟能生巧”的含义。 前文亲身经历从频频摔倒到熟练滑行，读懂了“熟能生巧”的含义。选用understood，亲身经历后领会谚语内涵。doubted怀疑、imagined想象、guessed猜测，不符合成长感悟。 14. 句意：滑雪教会我没有任何技能是容易获得的。 根据后文“With patience and courage, I could even ski the hardest slopes”靠耐心和勇气才能攻克难坡道，说明技能不会轻易获得。successfully成功地、carefully仔细地、slowly缓慢地，语义不匹配。 15. 句意：有了耐心和勇气，我甚至能滑最难的坡。 和前文“gentle slope”平缓的斜坡形成对比，依靠耐心最终挑战最难雪道。应选hardest，从初学缓坡进阶到高难度坡道。smallest最小的、safest最安全的、easiest最简单的，和进阶的文意相反。 Passage 18 The old man walked slowly along the street with a cane (手杖). He looked tired and weak. He stopped in front of a small 1 shop. Inside, a young girl named Lily was busy watering the plants. Looking at a pot of purple flowers for a long time, the man 2 his pocket and sighed (叹气). “Not enough money here.” Then he 3 and started to walk away. “Sir, wait a moment!” Lily ran out of the shop. She held the pot of 4 flowers in her hands. “These are for you,” she said with a bright smile. “But I didn’t 5 for them,” the old man said in surprise. “You don’t need to pay today,” Lily said 6 . “My mother told me that flowers are messengers of happiness. I see you like 7 very much, so I want you to have them.” The old man was moved. His 8 shook a little as he took the flowers. “Thank you, young lady. You have no idea 9 this means to me.” He smiled, and his eyes were full of tears. At that moment, he didn’t look 10 anymore. The next day, a truck arrived at the flower shop. It brought a beautiful 11 . There was a note on it: “Thank you for your 12 . The flowers reminded me of my wife who passed away. She loved purple flowers. Please accept this 13 to help your music dream.” Lily was shocked to know the old man used to be a pianist. She had 14 known such a small act of kindness could bring her such a huge surprise. It also taught her the true meaning of personal 15 —she learned that kindness can come back in unexpected ways. 1. A．fruit B．flower C．shoe D．piano 2. A．touched B．chose C．filled D．brought 3.

With a deep 1 , he read many books about aeronautics (航空学) at a very early age. Then he studied the basics, taught 2 maths, and is now building a turbojet engine (涡轮喷气引擎) by hand. Che was only five when he became interested in paper planes. He noticed the 3 between throwing a paper ball and flying a paper plane by hand, and wondered 4 the plane could fly in this way. Soon, he turned his house into a lab for paper planes, but that was only the 5 . According to his parents, Che once spent three hours each day reading science books about planes, and by the third grade, he had already learned 6 knowledge by himself. Later, he found online courses and decided to build something useful. However, he didn’t want to 7 other people’s designs. He wanted to design the thing himself, using his own knowledge. “Some people share some samples online, but 8 I just copied them directly, I would learn nothing, and it would be 9 .” Che Jingang told China Youth Daily. To realize his dream, the smart kid designed every part by himself. He recorded every process 10 making videos and posted them on Douyin. Soon, he started communicating with like-minded people. Followers shared advice with him, others 11 him to keep on, and some even offered to 3D-print his model parts for free. Within six months, he already had a prototype (雏形). 12 , the test failed, and it turned out to be the problems with the fuel. But he didn’t let that stop him from moving forward steps. “Nothing can be successful on the 13 try. Even if I didn’t succeed, I learned something, and that gives me the 14 to build it a second time,” the teen said. Che Jingang is already 15 a new and improved turbojet engine and is getting ready to test it. He will stick to his dream and never give up easily. 1. A．trust B．love C．sense D．influence 2.

Passage 3 Of all the 26 English letters, X is certainly one of the most interesting and special letters. 1 do people think so? One reason is that it makes different sounds 2 different words.

The important thing is not to be afraid. You are just teenagers. Remember that messing up from time to time is part of growing up. Mistakes are important. When you mess something up, it’s easy to feel bad. However, mistakes give your brain a chance to think about what it’s doing and learn, so you will get things right in the future. When you fall off a bike, your brain creates electrical activity. This sends a signal to the rest of your brain before you even hit the ground. Studies show these signals teach you to be more careful next time. How can they help? Making mistakes makes you stronger. England footballer Lauren Hemp, who won the Women’s Euros with the Lionesses this summer, says sometimes the team makes “mistake after mistake” in matches, but this just makes them want to play better. What seems like a disaster at the time can sometimes be funny afterwards. So if you worry about saying the wrong thing in class, you could be sharing a joke about it soon. Face up to failures. The best way to learn from your mistakes is to face up to them. Trying to feel comfortable when things go wrong might feel like a strange way to deal with failure, but it’s a more positive way forward. This is because when you’re not being hard on yourself, it’s easier to learn and this helps you do things differently next time. 1. According to the passage, how do mistakes help your brain? A．By making you feel bad right away. B．By giving your brain a chance to think and learn. C．By helping you run away from future activities. D．By stopping electrical activities in the brain. 2. Why does the writer mention Lauren Hemp’s experience in Paragraph 3? A．To show that mistakes only happen in sports. B．To argue that mistakes are always disasters. C．To show that mistakes can push people to improve. D．To suggest that famous people never learn from mistakes. 3. What is the best way to learn from mistakes according to the passage? A．Hiding mistakes from others. B．Being very strict with yourself. C．Facing up to mistakes. D．Forgetting about mistakes quickly. 4. Which magazine is this passage probably from? A． B． C． D． Passage 10 ①Hearing a parent say “Tidy your room!” is not unusual. According to a UK survey, having a messy bedroom is the third most common reason for a family argument. What do you think, is it OK to have a messy bedroom? ②Some people believe having a messy room is okay for kids. A messy room is like a teenager’s own little world. They can hang posters or leave clothes on the floor without someone telling them “Clean up!” This space teaches them to make choices and feel free to be themselves. Parents can help by staying out of the room. If the mess worries them, they can close the door. Most teenagers have messy rooms because they’re busy with friends, hobbies, or school. But they will probably grow out of it and learn to be more organized. ③Also, some studies show that messiness can be a sign of creativity and it’s more likely to free one’s mind for deep-thinking. Cleaning up the room is boring and time-wasting, and there are more meaningful things to do, like work, hobbies and friends. Anyway, the chances are that it will just get messy again! ④However, research shows that untidy environment can cause more stress and make it harder for teenagers to focus on homework. Instead, a tidy room can make them happy and help them think more clearly while dealing with difficult tasks in the room. What’s more, one may knock something onto the floor by accident and break it in a messy room. And it is unfair on the rest of the family if one of the rooms looks like a rubbish place—it is part of their home too and we should respect that. In a word, a tidy room is nice for everyone and, best of all, means no arguments. 1. What do people argue about according to the passage? A．Whether parents should set their kids free. B．Whether children should share housework. C．Whether kids should have their own space. D．Whether it is necessary to keep rooms tidy. 2. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Keeping rooms clean. B．Having a messy room. C．Arguing with parents. D．Preparing for future life. 3. Which can support the opinion of keeping rooms in order? A．Children can be free to throw things everywhere. B．It takes much time for children to clean bedrooms. C．Kids can focus on tasks and improve clear thinking. D．It helps children be more creative and open-minded. 4. What can be the structure of the passage? A． B． C．D． Passage 11 I’ve had a long argument with a girl named Summer ever since we met in kindergarten (幼儿园). It all started with a small cubby (小柜子). Six-year-old Summer asked me to take my backpack out of “her” cubby.      “You don’t own this cubby,” six-year-old me replied. “Why don’t you just use a different cubby?” “I’ve been using this cubby all week,” said Summer. “You’re the one who needs to use a different cubby!” “Well,” I said. “I don’t think you’re being very friendly.” “Well,” said Summer.“Maybe that’s because you’re not my friend!” In the first grade, during a ball game, we argued again. Summer said I was out of the game because the ball bounced twice, but I knew it only bounced once by the rule. She said I was a sore loser, and I said the same about her. In the third grade, we had another disagreement when we were in the chess club. I questioned her move (走棋), and she got angry, saying the wrong move was that she agreed to play with me. As you can see, ________. But something surprising changed us. We both acted as rabbits in our school’s winter play. At first, we tried to pay no attention to each other. But our director, Mr. Jackson, knew we had problems with each other and wanted to help. So he asked us to team up and sing a song together. We were nervous but agreed. During rehearsals (排练), we practised over and over again in order to give a wonderful performance on the stage and we started talking with each other before the big show. We knew our memories of past arguments were completely different. We ended up laughing about those silly fights. After lots of practice, our performance was a great success, and the audience couldn’t stop laughing. I learnt that not everyone gets along well at first, but sometimes, a conversation can turn enemies into friends. 1. What was the first argument between the writer and Summer about? A．A ball game rule. B．A chess move in the club. C．A cubby in kindergarten. D．A song in the school play. 2. How did Summer feel when the writer questioned her move? A．Angry. B．Nervous. C．Surprised. D．Worried. 3. Which of the following can be put into “________” in Paragraph 8? A．Summer and I always had fun. B．Summer and I never got along. C．Summer was always friendly to me.

C．It’s easy to get along with others at first. D．Conversations can turn enemies into friends. Passage 12 Ne Zha 2 The animated film Ne Zha 2, released on January 29, 2025, has become a huge success in the film industry. Directed by the famous Jiaozi (Yang Yu), it continues the exciting story of Ne Zha and Ao Bing from the first movie. After surviving a terrible disaster called the “Heavenly Tribulation”, Ne Zha and Ao Bing lost their physical bodies. Their souls were in great danger until Taiyi Zhenren, a wise immortal from Chinese mythology, saved them using a magical seven-colored lotus. However, peace did not last long. Their souls began to disappear again, forcing Taiyi Zhenren to face a difficult task—rebuilding their bodies with limited materials while solving unexpected problems. The film shows remarkable character growth. Ne Zha, once known for his rebellious nature, learns to care deeply for his friends and understand his true self. His friend Ao Bing, who used to struggle with personal troubles, transforms into a brave warrior. In one powerful scene, Ao Bing declares courageously, “If there’s no path, I’ll create one!” Visually, the movie is a feast for the eyes. It begins with thrilling scenes of flowing lava like wild rivers and terrifying sea monsters jumping out of the water, making viewers feel as if they are part of the action. Later, the story takes the audience to Kunlun Mountain, a magical place from Chinese myths filled with colorful landscapes and graceful fairy-like creatures. The most unforgettable part is the final battle, where characters use amazing weapons like the shape-changing Tianyuan Ding. The fast-paced fighting and brilliant special effects leave a strong impression. Beyond the action, Ne Zha 2 teaches important life lessons. It encourages people to stay brave when facing difficulties, fight for what is right, and value friendship. These themes resonate with both young and adult audiences. The film has broken box office records, earning an astonishing amount in its first week. It also received high praise from critics and viewers, currently holding an 8.6/10 rating on major review platforms.

You might turn on your air conditioner (空调), right? But in India, only about 20 percent of families own one. The rest have to face rising temperatures without any cooling tools. Now, an old material is stepping in to help: terracotta (赤陶土). Ancient Indians used terracotta pots to store water. These pots are still common in the Indian countryside today. They help people cool water without using electricity. The material is quite economical: each pot costs only one U.S. dollar. So, how do these pots work? Well, terracotta has many tiny holes on its surface that are very hard to see. These holes allow water to slowly dry up. As the water dries up, it carries heat away and makes the pot and the water inside cooler. Many Indian architects (建筑师) have got great ideas from this simple cooling way. They now use terracotta in their buildings to control indoor temperatures. Ant Studio is one of the first companies to do this. It adds a terracotta “skin (皮肤)” to buildings. With the help of the “skin”, the buildings cool off. “We have already done tests across more than 30 places in India,” says the company, “and we’ve seen indoor temperature drops by 6-8 ℃.” Other Indian companies are joining in. One company recycles old terracotta to make special “breathing” walls, which work much like Ant Studio’s terracotta “skin”. Another has developed terracotta fridges that can keep food fresh for three to five days without electricity. These can be really helpful for homes with no electricity. Many researchers believe terracotta may make a big difference to our warming earth. As word spreads, the material may become more widely used. We could all stay cool without using lots of energy. 1. What does the underlined word “economical” in Para.2 probably mean? A．cheap B．special C．smooth D．green 2. How does a terracotta pot cool water? A．By having a special material inside. B．By using an electric cooling machine. C．By letting water dry through tiny holes. D．By keeping water away from sunlight. 3. Which is a new use of terracotta now? A．To store cool drinking water. B．To make walls that can cool the air. C．To keep food fresh for weeks. D．To produce electricity for buildings. 4. What is the purpose of the text? A．To call on people to protect the traditional art. B．To explain why the earth is becoming warmer. C．To encourage people to buy terracotta products. D．To show an old material used for modern cooling. Passage 14 Have you ever written letters? Letter writing is a traditional way to make friends who live far away feel closer. Letters can cross time and space. They build up a relationship that’s hard to find in today’s digital world. On 8 September, 2024, Jin Xiaoyu held a book sharing event for The Letters of Walter Benjamin. The book has over 300 letters from Walter Benjamin, a famous writer from Germany. These letters show deep friendship between Benjamin and his friends. The Letters of Walter Benjamin reminds us of the importance of keeping in touch with others through letters. In the past, sending or receiving letters by horse or by bird was usual. However, this form of communication seems less common today. Now children can hardly enjoy this kind of joy. A group named ReachOut provided teenagers with chances to write letters about their feelings and experiences. Linda Williams, a worker of ReachOut, said, “Letter writing can help us express feelings. And it also helps us keep in touch with others.” Dr Maria Nicholas from Deakin University said, “Handwriting is still an important part of the school course. It is good for children’s learning, reading and memory.” Also, she advised children to write letters to friends, family, or their favorite writers. The experiences are useful for children. They make children express their feelings more often through writing. All in all, letter writing is a special way to connect with others and express ourselves. It’s a tradition worth continuing, especially for young people. As Dr Nicholas said, letter writing in schools is good for children’s learning. Let’s encourage children to experience the joy of writing letters. 1. How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By asking a question. C．By showing a fact. D．By singing a song. 2. Which of the following would Linda Williams most probably agree with? A．Letter writing is bad for friendship. B．People can communicate by writing letters. C．Letter writing can help children improve speaking skills. D．Writing letters wastes time. 3. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Handwriting. B．A letter. C．The school course. D．An email. 4. Which can be the best title for the text? A．A Book Sharing Event. B．The History of Writing Letters. C．The Importance of Letter Writing. D．Explore life. 三、完形填空： 阅读下面短文，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Passage 15 On April 19 at 8:20 a.m., a red figure ran across the finish line of a half-marathon race in Beijing. It was me, Flashing, and I had just made 1 . I’m not talking about human history. I’m a humanoid (人形的) robot designed 2 the company Honor. There was no 3 for a good night’s sleep before my race, or time to catch my breath. My biggest challenge was not hitting others on the 4 field: over 300 robots took part in it. I finished in 50 minutes and 26 seconds, faster than any of the 12,000 human runners. I 5 beat the human world-record holder, Jacob Kiplimo of Uganda. No wonder people clapped and 6 as I crossed the line. But were they cheering just for me? Much of the honor should go to my 7 . Designing and perfecting a winning robot is a marathon in itself. Have you ever 8 why my legs are over 90 centimeters long while my arms are so small? They are 9 shaped after the world’s best human athletes. I also have a special cooling system, so I’m less likely to overheat. However, cooling remains a big 10 for other humanoids. Many of my competitors couldn’t run fast simply because their motors (马达) became too 11 during the race. Last year, when the first robot half marathon was held, many competitors had to 12 halfway. The fastest robot finished in two hours and 40 minutes — it took longer time than 13 . Maybe Robot runners do not show the same strength and courage as humans, 14 this race does show just as much spirit. What does the future hold? When can we run fast enough in accidents to help 15 lives? Part of the answer may come from you. 1. A．interviews B．decisions C．history D．pleasure 2. A．as B．by C．into D．with 3.

One day, our physics teacher gave us an interesting 1 . He told us to make a paper plane of any 2 . The goal was to get it to fly as far as possible in the hallway. Most of us took it seriously. I folded the best plane I could, carefully shaping the wings and the nose (机头). It flew pretty 3 , and I felt proud of myself. However, one boy did something completely 4 . He made the greatest, yet the 5 paper plane. 6 , it wasn’t really a plane at all. He stood at the starting line holding a normal piece of paper, with no folds. Some classmates stretched (伸展) their necks while laughing at 7 , thinking he had no idea what he was doing. But moments later, he took that piece of paper, made it into a 8 , and threw it down the hallway. The paper ball rolled and bounced (弹跳) farther than any of our paper planes. We were so 9 by what he had done. We never expected things to happen like this. All of us were 10 easily by him. Some students got mad and said that it was unfair. The physics teacher smiled and asked, “How so? He didn’t do anything wrong 11 a paper ball is different. It is indeed (确实) a shape.” Yes, the boy didn’t cheat. He just completed the task in a 12 way while the rest of us followed the usual method without thinking. In our life, what we are taught leads to our experience. We do 13 according to it. However, what we 14 gets in the way of our development at some point. It is 15 necessary for us to learn to think outside the box.

My dream was to see some real snow, so during the Christmas holiday, we took our passports and 1 over the Pacific to Calgary, Canada. We took a bus to a ski resort (滑雪场) in the Canadian Rockies. As the 2 climbed through the mountains, we saw the thick snow on the trees. I was dying to get out and play with it! At last, we 3 the resort and quickly jumped out of the bus. This was our first experience with 4 . We were like little children — we made snowballs, and threw 5 at one another! After checking in, we could not wait to get out and ski. The next day, we 6 our ski suits and gloves, took our skis and went outside onto the snow. Wearing skis for the first time made me feel strange. I found it 7 to walk but it was fun. Then we had a skiing lesson 8 a young couple. Our coach took us to a gentle slope (斜坡), and showed us some basic skiing 9 . To be honest, that first lesson was not a great 10 . I kept on falling over, and I had to hold on to a rope to keep my balance. However, the next day, I only fell over a few times, and I 11 to do a few rapid runs. I felt pleased with myself, and my coach told me I was doing much better. I spent most of my holiday skiing 12 it was very cold. I had a wonderful time. It was all over too soon!

Looking at a pot of purple flowers for a long time, the man 2 his pocket and sighed (叹气). “Not enough money here.” Then he 3 and started to walk away. “Sir, wait a moment!” Lily ran out of the shop. She held the pot of 4 flowers in her hands. “These are for you,” she said with a bright smile. “But I didn’t 5 for them,” the old man said in surprise. “You don’t need to pay today,” Lily said 6 . “My mother told me that flowers are messengers of happiness. I see you like 7 very much, so I want you to have them.” The old man was moved. His 8 shook a little as he took the flowers. “Thank you, young lady. You have no idea 9 this means to me.” He smiled, and his eyes were full of tears. At that moment, he didn’t look 10 anymore. The next day, a truck arrived at the flower shop. It brought a beautiful 11 . There was a note on it: “Thank you for your 12 . The flowers reminded me of my wife who passed away. She loved purple flowers. Please accept this 13 to help your music dream.” Lily was shocked to know the old man used to be a pianist. She had 14 known such a small act of kindness could bring her such a huge surprise.

Then he studied the basics, taught 2 maths, and is now building a turbojet engine (涡轮喷气引擎) by hand. Che was only five when he became interested in paper planes. He noticed the 3 between throwing a paper ball and flying a paper plane by hand, and wondered 4 the plane could fly in this way. Soon, he turned his house into a lab for paper planes, but that was only the 5 . According to his parents, Che once spent three hours each day reading science books about planes, and by the third grade, he had already learned 6 knowledge by himself. Later, he found online courses and decided to build something useful. However, he didn’t want to 7 other people’s designs. He wanted to design the thing himself, using his own knowledge. “Some people share some samples online, but 8 I just copied them directly, I would learn nothing, and it would be 9 .” Che Jingang told China Youth Daily. To realize his dream, the smart kid designed every part by himself. He recorded every process 10 making videos and posted them on Douyin. Soon, he started communicating with like-minded people. Followers shared advice with him, others 11 him to keep on, and some even offered to 3D-print his model parts for free. Within six months, he already had a prototype (雏形). 12 , the test failed, and it turned out to be the problems with the fuel. But he didn’t let that stop him from moving forward steps. “Nothing can be successful on the 13 try. Even if I didn’t succeed, I learned something, and that gives me the 14 to build it a second time,” the teen said.

You took the time to help me, although you were so busy. You never gave up on me even though I made 1 (错误). You always treated me with kindness and 2 (耐心). Your classes always made me happy. I used to think that science was 3 (无聊) and difficult, and I did badly in class. I never liked science until I took your class. You 4 (鼓励) me and made science lessons fun, and slowly, I grew more 5 (自信). I also want to thank you for being kind to me. You helped me a lot, 6 (尤其) after my grandmother passed away. I couldn’t talk about my feelings to 7 (任何人) until you sat with me during 8 (午餐) that day. You listened to me and talked with me so that I felt much better. I will always 9 (记住) how you sat with me and listened. That day will always 10 (保留) in my mind. Thank you so much for being not only my teacher but also my friend. Sincerely, Kelly Smith Passage 22 An elderly couple who collect old things found a metal object near a river in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province. 1 (尽管) both are over 50, they looked closely at the heavy piece and saw designs on it, so they did not sell it as waste. They 2 (小心) put the object into a bag and took it to the police. The police officers looked at the piece and 3 (注意) green rust and unclear marks. They thought it might be an ancient bronze object, not just common iron. They thought that it was a 4 (音乐) instrument called“gou diao” from ancient China. Gou diao were used by 5 (国王) for important ceremonies and events, and they made a clear, beautiful sound. The instrument also showed the excellent bronze-making 6 (技艺) of its time. To make sure, the police quickly called the city cultural department and asked experts to study the object. They said it was more than a thousand years old. The department 7 (表扬) the couple for giving the object to the police and warned that 8 (任何人) who finds old cultural objects should hand them in or call the police to protect our national 9 (财富). “This old bronze has once 10 (再次) shown the long history of our civilization,” an expert said. “It tells us that common people can also help protect the past.” Passage 23 Ancient Roads play an important part in the development of China. They bring Chinese people closer and 1 (传播) Chinese culture to the whole world.The Tea-Horse Road Long ago, tea could not be grown in Tibet. 2 (没有) it, people often got sick after having meat and milk every day. Far away in the 3 (东方), people in Sichuan had plenty of tea but they were short of strong horses. How could they help each other? The traders began a long and hard journey to carry tea to Tibet, and brought horses back. They went through high mountains and crossed 4 (危险) rivers. On the way, they shared food, 5 (讲) stories, and learned to trust each other. Over time, the Tea-Horse Road brought people from different areas together.The Silk Road The ancient Silk Road started from Chang’an and went through many countries. Chinese sold 6 (柔软) silk, china and many traditional works of art to Europe along it. Also, Europeans learned the way to make 7 (纸张) from Chinese. Now this old road has 8 (已经) taken on a new look. It’s no longer just one road — it’s a 9 (标志) of trade, friendship and communication. Many countries get their own railways with China’s help. The 10 (价值) of the modern Silk Road is not only about business — it’s about holding hands and making the world a better place. Passage 24 I still remember the day! I sat down on my chair—and CRACK! The chair broke in half! My face turned as red as a 1 (西红柿). At 1.65 meters tall, I weighed 90 kilos. After school, I 2 (花) hours studying, reading and listening to music at home, but I never exercised. What’s 3 (更糟), my parents often cooked meat—heavy meals which made me fatter. Even chairs groaned (呻吟) under my weight. Nowadays, over half of adults and one in five 4 (孩子) are overweight. Many people say they have no time to exercise. And they usually order takeout and eat too much 5 (不健康的) food without noticing. But after breaking that poor chair, I 6 (认识到) I had to change. I made small changes in my daily life. Sometimes I cycled 7 (十二) kilometers home after school. Other times, I got off the bus early and walked the rest of the way. On the weekends, I washed clothes, cleaned my bedroom and watered flowers in the 8 (花园). Guess what? I’m now 20 kilos lighter than my primary school self! I no longer have to worry about breaking a chair when I have a 9 (座位)! Now it’s time to make some lifestyle changes. Don’t wait 10 (直到……为止) you break a chair! Passage 25 Have you ever seen volunteers? Just 1 (想象) what the world would be like without volunteers. I can always see 2 (志愿者) anytime and anywhere in our city. Some stand at the crossing to remind people of different traffic 3 (标志). Some help the 4 (生病的) dogs or cats that are badly 5 (受伤). Some go to the old people’s home to care for the lonely old people. People of all ages are willing to do volunteer jobs, such as 6 (打扫) the floor or raising money for the charity. Tom is a student from Huansha Middle School. He 7 (提供) books for the students in a poor 8 (地区) every year. “I can get a strong feeling of satisfaction through volunteering. Also, volunteering helps me to better 9 (竞争) in the future,” he said proudly while he was 10 (交流) with the reporter last week. Thanks to volunteers’ work, we can get a beautiful world that is full of love. Passage 26 Caring for others helps build a warmer community. Last Sunday, I visited some 1 (年老的) people in a neighbourhood in the 2 (北部的) part of our city with my friends. We visited their homes to help with basic 3 (家务) such as cleaning and shopping. Later, we 4 (花费) time with them at the community centre, chatting, playing chess, and teaching them 5 (怎样) to use their phones. The work was by no 6 (手段) easy. Some old people felt shy and refused our help at first. It was also 7 (富有挑战性的) to communicate 8 (清楚地) with those who had hearing problems, so we had to be patient. To me, the 9 (志愿的) work was meaningful. I felt happy to see their smiles, and I understood that even small acts of 10 (善举) can make a real difference. It encouraged me to keep helping others whenever I could. 五、书面表达： Passage 27 How time flies! Your Grade 8 life is coming to an end.
