Lonely Brazilian fisherman Joao Pereira de Souza (Jean Reno) is struggling with misfortune when he spots a penguin in oil in the surf. He rescues the Antarctic sea bird, providing baths, shelter, food and a name: Dindim, which in turn helps Joao Pereira de Souza regain his sense of purpose. Super/Man Directed by Ian Bonhote and Peter Ettedgui This documentary shows why Christopher Reeve was as much of a superhero off-screen as he was on. The Juilliard graduate became a hit by playing Man of Steel in four Superman films. In 1995, when a horseback riding accident left him physically challenged, the actor insisted on working, raising money for injury research and helping others until his death in 2004. The Life Impossible By Matt Haig Literary hit-maker Matt Haig hits the mark once more with The Life Impossible. A letter from a former student leads retired maths teacher Grace Winters to describe the seemingly small act of kindness she showed to a music teacher years ago. The kindness nearly forgotten turns into something unforgettable when Winters is bequeathed (遗赠) a house in Ibiza. Trivial Pursuit Hosted by LeVar Burton LeVar Burton takes his turn in the trivia-show spotlight as he hosts the new TV version of Trivial Pursuit. Three players move around a huge board, answering questions in hopes of winning the prize. The first player to reach the board’s center earns a chance to race the clock and take home the $20,000 prize pot. 1. Which one inspires the disabled most? A. My Penguin Friend. B. Super/Man. C. The Life Impossible. D. Trivial Pursuit. 2. What is most likely the common theme of My Penguin Friend and The Life Impossible? A. Power of hope. B. Act of kindness. C. Personal growth. D. Lifelong friendship. 3. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. Textbook. B. Travel journal. C. Magazine. D. Science report. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四部不同的值得阅读和观看的作品。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Super/Man部分中“In 1995, when a horseback riding accident left him physically challenged, the actor insisted on working, raising money for injury research and helping others until his death in 2004.( 1995年，当一次骑马事故使他的身体出现障碍时，这位演员坚持工作，为伤病研究筹集资金并帮助他人，直到2004年去世。)”可知，克里斯托弗·里夫在骑马事故后身体残疾但仍坚持工作、为伤病研究筹款并帮助他人直到 2004 年去世，这对残疾人来说是很大的激励，可知该作品最能鼓励残疾人。故选D。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据My Penguin Friend部分中“He rescues the Antarctic sea bird, providing baths, shelter, food and a name: Dindim, which in turn helps Joao Pereira de Souza regain his sense of purpose.(他拯救了这只南极海鸟，为它提供了洗澡、住所、食物和名字：Dindim，这反过来又帮助Joao Pereira de Souza重获目标感。)”可知，该作品讲述的是Joao Pereira de Souza拯救了南极海鸟的故事，由此让自己重新获得目标感，展现了Joao Pereira de Souza的善良；根据The Life Impossible部分中“A letter from a former student leads retired maths teacher Grace Winters to describe the seemingly small act of kindness she showed to a music teacher years ago. (退休的数学老师Grace Winters收到了一位前学生的来信，她描述了几年前她对一位音乐老师看似微不足道的善举。)”介绍的是Grace Winters因为一个小善举获得了遗赠。由此推断两部作品都体现了善举的力量，所以共同主题是善举。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章分别介绍了不同的电影、纪录片、书籍和电视节目，由此推断文章最有可能取自杂志。故选C。 B The Fire Festival is celebrated in northern Ghana. It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers. It’s unbelievably great. On the Fire Festival, drums beat a quick and regular rhythm that locals dance to in a circle of bodies, men and women, the old and young, holding torches of burning grass above their heads, which stands for the light and getting off negative energies. At this moment, this festival is being held at the beginning of the lunar year. The locals are all so involved in the celebration that they don’t pay as much attention to us as they normally will. When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy. Danielle, a friend of mine in the Peace Corps, says, “That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.” Our two-year Peace Corps service will finish up in mid-November. We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them — and lets them see a different side of us. The neighbors who sell rice are now the women who urge us to run faster and dance harder at the Fire Festival. And rather than view us as low-key volunteers, they see us as the ones who have crazy dance steps with wild screams. 4. Why did the author go to northern Ghana? A. To find a job. B. To go traveling. C. To study further. D. To do voluntary work. 5. How do the locals feel when seeing the author and Danielle join in the celebration? A. Annoyed. B. Indifferent. C. Confused. D. Excited. 6. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The benefits of celebrating the Fire Festival. B. The secrets of dancing well in the Fire Festival. C. The reasons of the author’s joining in the festival. D. The experience of helping the neighbors sell rice. 7. What can we learn from the text? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Where there is a will, there is a way. C. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. D. The grass is always greener on the other side. 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述作者作为和平队社区志愿者在加纳北部庆祝火把节的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers.( 这是我们作为和平队社区志愿者来到这里的一个村庄生活之前从未听说过的假期)”可知，作者到加纳北部做志愿工作。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy. (当他们发现我们像他们一样参与进来时，他们会跳得更卖力，高兴地尖叫)”可推断，当地人发现志愿者们加入他们的庆祝活动后，他们非常激动。故选D。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them—and lets them see a different side of us. (我们想不出比和我们认识的村民一起庆祝火把节更好的告别方式了。这个节日让我们看到了他们的另一面，也让他们看到了我们的另一面)”可知，本段主要讲作者和Danielle加入当地火把节庆祝活动的原因。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。结合第一段“It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers.(这是一个我们作为和平队社区志愿者来到这个村庄之前从未听说过的节日)”和第四段中“That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.(我们参加庆祝活动意义重大，因为这里的外国人通常被视为其他组织的代表，而不是愿意参加火把节仪式的人。但事实上，我们在一起跳舞和庆祝)”可知，作者和Danielle以和平工作团志愿者的身份来到加纳北部，当地人庆祝火把节时，他们入乡随俗，积极参与庆祝活动，这得以让当地人和志愿者们重新认识彼此。因此，从文中我们可以学到“When in Rome, do as the Romans do(入乡随俗)”。故选C。 C In a world that often stresses physical appearance, it’s important not to concern ourselves with external beauty or ugliness. True beauty and strength lie within. Our focus on outward looks can lead to self-doubt and insecurity. For instance, many people feel sad when they don’t match the perfect images (形象) presented in the media. They might fight for an unachievable standard of beauty, frequently comparing themselves to others. However, this often leaves us empty and dissatisfied. Inner strength, on the other hand, enables us to face life’s challenges with courage and resilience (恢复力). It gives us the ability to bear hardships and come out of failures. A person like Malala Yousafzai, who fought for girls’ education despite facing great danger, shows that a strong and beautiful heart is more important than appearance. A person with a strong and beautiful heart is kind, empathetic (有同理心的), and generous. They focus on building meaningful relationships and having a positive influence on the world around them. They don’t let the opinions of others about their appearance affect them. Instead, they draw confidence from their values and character. Consider the volunteers in local charities. They give their time and love selflessly, not worried by their outward looks but rather the warmth they can bring. Even in daily life, simple acts like helping an elderly cross the street or comforting a sad friend show the beauty within. Rather than spending a large amount of time and energy on perfecting our looks, we should focus on self-improvement and self-reflection. We can read, learn new skills, and take part in activities that nourish (滋养) our souls. By doing so, we will discover a beauty that is far more lasting and satisfying than any external charm. Let’s remember that it’s our inner selves that truly matter and have the power to change not only our lives but also the lives of those we touch. 8. What can be inferred about the role of the media in relation to self-awareness from this article? A. It helps people build a realistic self-image. B. It promotes a healthy focus on inner beauty. C. It may contribute to unrealistic beauty standards. D. It has no important effect on how people view themselves. 9. Why does the author mention Malala Yousafzai and volunteers? A. As an example of inner beauty. B. As an example different from volunteers in charities. C. To show the importance of girls’ education. D. To show the power of changing one’s life. 10. What writing technique is used in this article in order to express the main point of view? A. Exaggeration (夸张). B. Metaphor (暗喻). C. Contrast (对比). D. Personification (拟人). 11. Which of the following would he the best title for the article? A. True Beauty: The strength Hard to Achieve. B. From Within: The True Beauty of a Person. C. Self-improvement: The Way to Nourish Our Soul. D. Difficult to Judge: The True Meaning of Inner Beauty. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了只关注外在美会导致的问题，强调内在美才是真正的美。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“For instance, many people feel sad when they don’t match the perfect images (形象) presented in the media. They might fight for an unachievable standard of beauty, frequently comparing themselves to others. (例如，当他们与媒体上呈现的完美形象不符时，许多人会感到悲伤。他们可能会为一个无法达到的美丽标准而奋斗，经常把自己和别人比较。)”可知，媒体在自我意识方面可能导致不切实际的审美标准。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A person like Malala Yousafzai, who fought for girls’ education despite facing great danger, shows that a strong and beautiful heart is more important than appearance. (像马拉拉·尤萨夫扎伊这样的人，不顾巨大的危险为女孩的教育而奋斗，表明了坚强美丽的内心比外表更重要。)”以及第三段“Consider the volunteers in local charities. They give their time and love selflessly, not worried by their outward looks but rather the warmth they can bring. (想想当地慈善机构的志愿者。他们无私地付出自己的时间和爱，不担心他们的外表，而是他们能带来的温暖。)”可知，作者提到马拉拉·尤萨夫扎伊和志愿者是为了作为内在美的一个例子。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Our focus on outward looks can lead to self-doubt and insecurity. (我们对外表的关注会导致自我怀疑和不安全感。)”以及第三段“A person with a strong and beautiful heart is kind, empathetic (有同理心的), and generous. (拥有一颗强大而美丽的心的人是善良、善解人意和慷慨的。)”可知，作者通过将外在美与内在美进行对比，来强调内在美的重要性，所以文章使用了对比的写作技巧，故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“By doing so, we will discover a beauty that is far more lasting and satisfying than any external charm. Let’s remember that it’s our inner selves that truly matter and have the power to change not only our lives but also the lives of those we touch. (通过这样做，我们将发现一种比任何外在魅力更持久、更令人满意的美。让我们记住，真正重要的是我们内心的自我，它不仅能改变我们的生活，也能改变我们所接触到的人的生活。)”结合文章主要说明了只关注外在美会导致的问题，强调内在美才是真正的美。可知，B选项“发自内心：一个人的真正美”最符合文章标题。故选B。 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。其中有两项为多余选项。 Sleep is not just a passive activity; it’s an important process that affects every aspect of a teenager’s life. ____12____ Research shows that teens who get enough sleep - typically 8-10hours nightly-perform better in study, have reduced mood swings and stress, and even lower the risk of sports injuries. Not enough sleep can lead to serious health results, especially for developing minds and bodies. During deep sleep, the brain strengthens memories and processes information learned during the day, increasing neural connections that are key to keeping new knowledge. This is why staying up all night before exams often has the opposite effects. ____13____ Many factors contribute to poor sleep in teenagers, from busy schedules to body changes. ____14____ The blue light produced by smartphones, tablets, and laptops makes it harder to fall asleep and reduces sleep quality. Experts recommend turning off screens at least one hour before bedtime and keeping devices out of the bedroom to create a clearer separation between daytime activity and sleep. Creating a sleep-friendly environment is equally important for improving sleep habits. Keeping the bedroom cool, dark, and quiet, helps set the stage for restful sleep. Developing a regular bedtime habit also tells the body that it’s time to relax. ____15____ Remember, regular exercise promotes deeper sleep, but it’s best done earlier in the day as exercising too close to bedtime can have the opposite effect. ____16____ By creating a sleep-friendly environment, avoiding factors that influence sleep and engaging in regular exercise, teenagers can significantly improve their sleep quality and lead a healthier and more productive life. A. Diet also plays a key role in sleep quality. B. Electronic products are among the biggest causes. C. It’s the foundation for both mental and physical health. D. Their body clocks naturally change during the teenage years. E. This could include reading a book or practicing light exercises. F. In conclusion, enough sleep is of greatest importance for teenagers. G. The brain loses its chance to organize and store the material properly. 【答案】12. C 13. G 14. B 15. E 16. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了睡眠对青少年身心健康至关重要，充足睡眠有益学习、情绪等，睡眠不足影响记忆，电子产品是主要影响因素，可通过优化睡眠环境等方式改善睡眠质量。 【12题详解】 前文“Sleep is not just a passive activity; it’s an important process that affects every aspect of a teenager’s life.( 睡眠不仅仅是一种被动的活动；这是一个影响青少年生活方方面面的重要过程。)”点明“睡眠是影响青少年生活各方面的重要过程”，后文“Research shows that teens who get enough sleep - typically 8-10hours nightly-perform better in study, have reduced mood swings and stress, and even lower the risk of sports injuries.( 研究表明，睡眠充足的青少年——通常每晚8-10小时——在学习上表现更好，情绪波动和压力减少，甚至运动受伤的风险也更低。)”通过研究数据说明“充足睡眠对学习、情绪、健康的积极作用”，空格需起到“总起下文，强调睡眠核心价值”的作用。C项“It’s the foundation for both mental and physical health.( 它是身心健康的基础。)”中“It”指代前文“sleep”，“foundation for both mental and physical health”（身心健康的基础）直接呼应后文“perform better in study, reduced mood swings, lower injury risk”等具体益处，衔接自然。故选C项。 【13题详解】 前文“During deep sleep, the brain strengthens memories and processes information learned during the day, increasing neural connections that are key to keeping new knowledge. This is why staying up all night before exams often has the opposite effects.( 在深度睡眠期间，大脑加强记忆和处理白天学到的信息，增加神经连接，这是保持新知识的关键。这就是为什么考试前熬夜通常会产生相反的效果。)”提到“深度睡眠时大脑强化记忆、处理信息”，并指出 “考前熬夜适得其反”，空格需解释“熬夜为何效果差”，即大脑失去整理存储知识的机会。G项“The brain loses its chance to organize and store the material properly.( 大脑失去了正确组织和储存信息的机会。)”中“The brain”承接前文“the brain strengthens memories and processes information”，“loses its chance to organize and store the material”直接回应“考前熬夜的负面影响”，逻辑通顺。故选G项。 【14题详解】 前文“Many factors contribute to poor sleep in teenagers, from busy schedules to body changes.( 很多因素导致青少年睡眠不足，从繁忙的日程安排到身体变化。)”提出“多种因素导致青少年睡眠差”，后文“The blue light produced by smartphones, tablets, and laptops makes it harder to fall asleep and reduces sleep quality.( 智能手机、平板电脑和笔记本电脑发出的蓝光会让人更难入睡，降低睡眠质量。)”具体说明“电子产品的蓝光影响入睡和睡眠质量”，空格需引出“电子产品这一关键因素”。B项“Electronic products are among the biggest causes.( 电子产品是主要原因之一。)”直接衔接后文对蓝光危害的描述，构成 “总述因素→具体解释”的逻辑。故选B项。 【15题详解】 前文“Developing a regular bedtime habit also tells the body that it’s time to relax.( 养成规律的就寝习惯也会告诉身体是时候放松了。)”提到“养成规律的睡前习惯能让身体放松”，空格需举例说明“具体的睡前习惯”。E项“This could include reading a book or practicing light exercises.( 这可以包括读一本书或做一些轻松的练习。)”中“This”指代前文“regular bedtime habit”，“reading a book or practicing light exercises”（读书或做轻度运动）是典型的健康睡前习惯，符合语境。故选E项。 【16题详解】 后文“By creating a sleep-friendly environment, avoiding factors that influence sleep and engaging in regular exercise, teenagers can significantly improve their sleep quality and lead a healthier and more productive life.( 通过创造一个有利于睡眠的环境，避免影响睡眠的因素，经常锻炼，青少年可以显著提高他们的睡眠质量，过上更健康、更有成效的生活。)”通过“创造睡眠环境、避开干扰因素、规律运动”等具体建议，总结“青少年如何改善睡眠”，空格需起到“总结全文，重申充足睡眠的重要性”的作用。F项“In conclusion, enough sleep is of greatest importance for teenagers.( 总之，充足的睡眠对青少年来说是最重要的。)”明确体现总结功能，“enough sleep is of greatest importance for teenagers”呼应文章开头“睡眠对青少年的重要性”，并引出后文改善睡眠的具体方法，首尾呼应。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分45分） 第一节 完型填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was the morning of my final audition (试镜) to play Harry Potter in 2000. Instead of practicing, I spent an hour ____17____ my hair, hoping to win over the Hollywood leaders. Needless to say, securing the ____18____ in one of the biggest film series of all time requires more than a hairstyle. Mid-audition, as I was too ____19____ to forget my lines, I locked eyes with one of the producers. He gave me a(n) ____20____, probably meant to be encouraging, but it was clear he’d already made up his mind. My journey started in 1998 when I first read the novel of Harry Potter and became a crazy ____21____. The following year, I heard about auditions for the film adaptation, ____22____ to kids of my age. I had little ____23____ experience, but somehow, I believed I had a chance. My memory of the first audition is standing in a long queue with about 300 other ____24____. After I performed, one of the casting directors said to my mum, “He’s rather ____25____.” That gave me hope, but as weeks passed with no word, my confidence ____26____. Months later, the house phone rang. I’d been invited to audition at a film studio and I had to learn two scenes. After weeks of ____27____, it was finally go-time. I recall getting a brief tour of the studio — a(n) ____28____ moment for an 11-year-old Potterhead. The audition itself, however, wasn’t as memorable. While the judges were kind, I felt shy and froze up, ____29____ to say my lines with energy. Leaving the room, I knew I hadn’t got the part. On the way home, I regretted my half-hearted performance and ____30____ meeting those who’d heard about the “rather good”. At 11, not landing the role wasn’t the end of the world. ____31____, it turned out to be valuable training for my future life. 17. A. styling B. cutting C. washing D. brushing 18.

In my opinion, plot matters far more than special effects when it comes to a movie. A good plot is the soul of a movie, which can touch viewers deeply and leave a lasting impression. It conveys true feelings and meaningful ideas that make people think. Special effects only bring temporary visual fun but can’t make people remember the movie long. Without a great plot, even amazing effects will make the movie empty and boring.

Convenience (方便) Foods Instead of buying only fresh foods, Americans buy many more convenience foods. These are foods which are ready partly or completely prepared. There are also many canned convenience foods, such as soups and vegetables. Convenience foods save time and trouble. They are popular with people who are busy or who don’t like to cook or wash dishes. But they often cost more money than fresh, unprepared foods and may contain man-made additives. Also they don’t taste as good as home-cooked foods. Health Foods In the 1960s, a “back-to-the earth” movement was started by young people in the US. The movement was a reaction against the harmful effects of technology. Many people now prefer natural and organic foods to the prepared foods sold in food stores. Diet Foods (减肥食品) These days Americans are more and more concerned with their weight. American supermarkets sell a variety of diet foods such as diet soft drinks, diet candy, and diet salad dressings (调味料). Each year dozens of new diets are popularized. However, some of the diet foods are not believable. There are tricks in their advertisements. 53. 根据文章内容，使用适当的词完成下列表格，每空一词。 Three popular foods in the US Kinds of foods Convenience Foods Health Foods Diet Foods People who like the foods Those who are busy; Those who don’t like to cook or wash dishes Those who are against the ________ effects of technology. Those who are more ________ about their weight.

Disadvantages / Drawbacks ⑤. tasty / delicious / yummy ⑥. Unknown / Unclear ⑦. believable 54. 【范文一】 Should we support diet foods? Why? In a broad sense, we should support diet foods. Nowadays, more Americans care about their weight. Diet foods, like diet drinks and salad dressings, give them many choices. They show that food companies are paying attention to people’s health. Even if some ads are not true, these foods still help people live healthier lives, so we should support them. 【范文二】 Should we support diet foods? Why? In a broad sense, we should not support diet foods. First, many diet foods are not reliable because their ads often use tricks to cheat people. Second, new diets become popular every year, making people follow trends blindly instead of using scientific ways to keep fit. What’s more, depending too much on these foods may cause an unhealthy diet, which is bad for people’s health in the long term. 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍当下美国三类流行食品，分别说明各类食品受众、利弊与现存问题。 【53题详解】 ①根据第四段“The movement was a reaction against the harmful effects of technology.(这场运动是对科技有害影响的反抗)”可知，喜爱健康食品的人反对科技带来的有害影响，修饰名词effects，形容词harmful“有害的”符合。 ②根据第五段“These days Americans are more and more concerned with their weight.(如今美国人越来越关注自己的体重)”可知，减肥食品受关注体重的人群喜爱，表示“关注”用短语be concerned about，空处用形容词concerned“关心的”。 ③根据小标题Diet Foods (减肥食品)可知，这类食品帮助人们减重，lose/reduce/decrease/lower weight“减肥，减重”，不定式符号to后接动词原形。 ④空格上方为Advantages（优点），本栏罗列的是三类食品的缺点，名词disadvantage/drawbacks“缺点”符合，呼应advantages，应用复数形式，且首字母大写。 ⑤根据第三段“Also they don’t taste as good as home-cooked foods.(并且它们的口感不如家常食物)”可知，方便食物味道不如家常食物美味，形容词tasty / delicious/yummy“美味的”符合。 ⑥细节理解题。原文未提及健康食品的缺点，unknown/unclear“未知的”符合题意，首字母需大写。 ⑦根据第五段“However, some of the diet foods are not believable.(然而，一部分减肥食品并不可信)”可知，并非所有减肥食品都可信，形容词believable“可信的”符合题意，作表语和not连用，表否定含义。 【54题详解】 开放表达题。结合自己的理解，先回答是否应该支持减肥食物，然后给出支持或不支持的理由，注意控制词数。 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 连云港市厉庄高级中学高一年级期末学情检测 英语试题 （时间：120分钟 分值：150分） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers. It’s unbelievably great. On the Fire Festival, drums beat a quick and regular rhythm that locals dance to in a circle of bodies, men and women, the old and young, holding torches of burning grass above their heads, which stands for the light and getting off negative energies. At this moment, this festival is being held at the beginning of the lunar year. The locals are all so involved in the celebration that they don’t pay as much attention to us as they normally will. When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy. Danielle, a friend of mine in the Peace Corps, says, “That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.” Our two-year Peace Corps service will finish up in mid-November. We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them — and lets them see a different side of us. The neighbors who sell rice are now the women who urge us to run faster and dance harder at the Fire Festival. And rather than view us as low-key volunteers, they see us as the ones who have crazy dance steps with wild screams. 4. Why did the author go to northern Ghana? A. To find a job. B. To go traveling. C. To study further. D. To do voluntary work. 5. How do the locals feel when seeing the author and Danielle join in the celebration? A. Annoyed. B. Indifferent. C. Confused. D. Excited. 6. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The benefits of celebrating the Fire Festival. B. The secrets of dancing well in the Fire Festival. C. The reasons of the author’s joining in the festival. D. The experience of helping the neighbors sell rice. 7. What can we learn from the text? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Where there is a will, there is a way. C. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. D. The grass is always greener on the other side. C In a world that often stresses physical appearance, it’s important not to concern ourselves with external beauty or ugliness. True beauty and strength lie within. Our focus on outward looks can lead to self-doubt and insecurity. For instance, many people feel sad when they don’t match the perfect images (形象) presented in the media. They might fight for an unachievable standard of beauty, frequently comparing themselves to others. However, this often leaves us empty and dissatisfied. Inner strength, on the other hand, enables us to face life’s challenges with courage and resilience (恢复力). It gives us the ability to bear hardships and come out of failures. A person like Malala Yousafzai, who fought for girls’ education despite facing great danger, shows that a strong and beautiful heart is more important than appearance. A person with a strong and beautiful heart is kind, empathetic (有同理心的), and generous. They focus on building meaningful relationships and having a positive influence on the world around them. They don’t let the opinions of others about their appearance affect them. Instead, they draw confidence from their values and character. Consider the volunteers in local charities. They give their time and love selflessly, not worried by their outward looks but rather the warmth they can bring. Even in daily life, simple acts like helping an elderly cross the street or comforting a sad friend show the beauty within. Rather than spending a large amount of time and energy on perfecting our looks, we should focus on self-improvement and self-reflection. We can read, learn new skills, and take part in activities that nourish (滋养) our souls. By doing so, we will discover a beauty that is far more lasting and satisfying than any external charm. Let’s remember that it’s our inner selves that truly matter and have the power to change not only our lives but also the lives of those we touch. 8. What can be inferred about the role of the media in relation to self-awareness from this article? A. It helps people build a realistic self-image. B. It promotes a healthy focus on inner beauty. C.

Not enough sleep can lead to serious health results, especially for developing minds and bodies. During deep sleep, the brain strengthens memories and processes information learned during the day, increasing neural connections that are key to keeping new knowledge. This is why staying up all night before exams often has the opposite effects. ____13____ Many factors contribute to poor sleep in teenagers, from busy schedules to body changes. ____14____ The blue light produced by smartphones, tablets, and laptops makes it harder to fall asleep and reduces sleep quality. Experts recommend turning off screens at least one hour before bedtime and keeping devices out of the bedroom to create a clearer separation between daytime activity and sleep. Creating a sleep-friendly environment is equally important for improving sleep habits. Keeping the bedroom cool, dark, and quiet, helps set the stage for restful sleep. Developing a regular bedtime habit also tells the body that it’s time to relax. ____15____ Remember, regular exercise promotes deeper sleep, but it’s best done earlier in the day as exercising too close to bedtime can have the opposite effect. ____16____ By creating a sleep-friendly environment, avoiding factors that influence sleep and engaging in regular exercise, teenagers can significantly improve their sleep quality and lead a healthier and more productive life. A. Diet also plays a key role in sleep quality. B. Electronic products are among the biggest causes. C. It’s the foundation for both mental and physical health. D. Their body clocks naturally change during the teenage years. E. This could include reading a book or practicing light exercises. F.

Convenience (方便) Foods Instead of buying only fresh foods, Americans buy many more convenience foods. These are foods which are ready partly or completely prepared. There are also many canned convenience foods, such as soups and vegetables. Convenience foods save time and trouble. They are popular with people who are busy or who don’t like to cook or wash dishes. But they often cost more money than fresh, unprepared foods and may contain man-made additives. Also they don’t taste as good as home-cooked foods. Health Foods In the 1960s, a “back-to-the earth” movement was started by young people in the US. The movement was a reaction against the harmful effects of technology. Many people now prefer natural and organic foods to the prepared foods sold in food stores. Diet Foods (减肥食品) These days Americans are more and more concerned with their weight.
