If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully ____11____ the grammar is not perfect enough. However, one ____12____ problem is that you learn new words and then you forget them. So when you want to use a new word when talking with others, you can’t remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you? The ____13____ for this problem is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying word lists and dictionaries and remembering the words.

You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example, from an English lesson or an article, write it down in your vocabulary notebook. ____16____ is more active than just reading a definition (定义) .

Write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adj.) . Example one, from the ____18____: Thanks for paying for my dinner; you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal hospital on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are ____19____to your life because you can remember the new words better in this way. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence ____20____ the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps-writing the word and using it at once-help you remember and use new words. Do you have a vocabulary notebook? If not, start now. 11. A. so B. though C. because D. till 12.

You don’t want to miss this wonderful tour! Timetable 09:00 Pickup at your hotel 09: 30 Start of tour at Balinghai Beach and Coral Garden (in November—April: Crocodile and Bulabog Beach) 12:00 Lunch at Puka Beach; visit to llig-lligan 15:00 End of tour/return to your hotel 21.

Puka Beach B Space tourism(太空旅游业) is no longer a thing of science fiction. There are lots of companies planning to send people into space in the next few years. Space X is one of the most famous companies offering trips to space. So far, it has had over 100 customers. And in April, 2022, it sent 4 people into space. Now, what can space tourists do while in space? Here are some examples: See the Earth from Space Seeing the Earth from a distance has always been a dream. It gives most people a sense of both achievement and wonder(which is also why people climb the highest mountain and dive the deepest sea on the earth). Stay in a Space Hotel Hotels are directly connected with tourism, right? So if there’s space tourism, there might also be space hotels up soon. Orion Span has been planning to send tourists to stay in their “space hotel”, which would hold up to 6 people at a time. Eat in Space Eating is not easy in space. Even drinking water is difficult. Oh, a quick fact! You aren’t allowed to burp(打嗝) in space! Bubbles will come out of your mouth and it might be dangerous to leave them around. Visit the Moon and Other Planets Space tourism companies are racing to launch(发射) the first tourist flight to the moon. Although there might be a long way to go before common people can step on the moon, we will probably see it in our lifetime. And who knows, maybe we’ll even see hotels on the moon. With the industry rapidly developing, space tourism is around the corner, and it might come much faster than we think. Who knows what the future might be like? Will you be the next person to travel to space? 24. How many people did Space X send into space in April, 2022? A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six. 25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Orion Span has built six space hotels. B. Eating in space is as easy as it is on the earth. C. Seeing the earth from space is meaningless for most people. D. It is possible for common people to visit the moon in the future. 26. The underlined words “around the corner” in the last paragraph probably mean “________”. A. very slow B. very near C. very difficult D. very traditional 27. The text is probably from the column(栏目) of ________ in a magazine. A. Travel B. Health C. Sports D. Education C Feng Boyao is a 14-year-old student at No. 37 Middle School in Taiyuan. He often goes to the library to read books. One day, he noticed that there weren’t many Braille (盲文) books provided for the blind and that most of those books were outdated (过时的). At the same time, Meng Shuqi, Feng’s classmate, knew that one of her relatives couldn’t read the latest books because of the same reason. They then teamed up to help the blind by fixing the problem. One year later, the two teenagers succeeded in inventing a new kind of Braille reader. In July, their work won the first prize in a national competition. When connected to a computer, their Braille reader can turn words into raised dots (凸起的点). Blind people can then read by touching the dots. “After doing market research by comparing different Braille readers, we’ve found that most Braille readers are very hard to use and expensive. Each of them sells for over 10,000 yuan.” Feng said. “So we decided to develop a user-friendly product especially for young blind children from Grade 1 to Grade 3. Moreover, it only costs about 2,000 yuan.” To make the invention, the team gained (获得) lots of knowledge and skills by reading online materials and asking their teachers for help. After making their first device (设备), Feng and Meng visited a school for the blind to get advice. They then improved their device. For example, they changed the size of the screen and the amount of space between the dots. “We hope the invention will be widely used in the future to help those blind people who can’t afford expensive Braille readers,” Meng said. 28. How does the new Braille reader work? A. By reading books aloud. B. By helping the blind touch the dots. C. By changing words into raised dots. D. By making raised dots on blind people’s computers. 29. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. The Braille reader’s screen is very small. B. The Braille reader has become popular at a school. C. Feng and Meng gave away their devices to a school. D. The Braille reader has been improved according to users’ advice. 30. What is the passage mainly about? A. The development of Braille readers. B. A new way for the blind to read. C. An invention competition. D. Tools for the blind people. Calligraphy（书法）, in English, means the art of producing beautiful hand-writing using special pens or brushes. ___31___ It has existed for about 1,000 years. ___32___ They are zhuanshu, lishu, kaishu, xingshu and caoshu. Through centuries of practice, Chinese calligraphy can be seen on the walls of offices, shops, hotels, and houses. Calligraphy isn’t only popular among the Chinese. Picasso, the world-famous master of art, once expressed, “If I once lived in China, I must have become a calligrapher（书法家）rather than a painter.” Art has no borders, right? Well, practicing Chinese calligraphy needs basic instruments. ___33___ We Chinese call them the “Four Treasures of the Study”. It’s impossible for everyone to become a master of Chinese calligraphy. But practicing it more often is really useful and helpful. First, you can learn hand-writing to improve your understanding of Chinese characters. ___34___ Besides, you have to get concentrated（全神贯注的）and have a peaceful mind when practicing it. This way, you will get improved and your worries will be gone. Some primary schools offer lessons to teach students Chinese calligraphy. There are also clubs of Chinese calligraphy started by calligraphy lovers. ___35___ We should pass on this kind of classical culture. A. Chinese calligraphy is an important part of our traditional culture. B. They are brush, inkstick（墨）, paper, and inkstone（砚）. C. Next, it is believed that calligraphers enjoy a long life because the practice is a good form of physical training. D. Chinese calligraphy is a traditional form of writing characters with a long history. E. There are five main kinds of traditional Chinese calligraphy. F. You must practice very hard to be a calligrapher. G. Many Chinese people are good at calligraphy.

There are also some other things you should remember. First, it’s impolite to stick chopsticks into a bowl of rice and leave them there.
