三、阅读理解(每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。
A
When we talk about building a green world, most people only think of simple daily tasks like sorting rubbish or saving electricity. However, real environmental protection is a long-lasting task connected with every living thing on our planet. It asks us to think far into the future rather than just chase short-term comfort.
Human activities have brought plenty of hidden trouble these years. Many factories used harmful chemicals to cut production costs. Untreated waste water ran into rivers and soaked into soil, ruining rich farmland and causing the death of lots of seabirds. Fossil fuels we depend on are limited and will run out one day. Although solar power and other eco-friendly energy are available, they have not been widely used in most areas.
Local governments have taken useful steps. Strict rules are made to punish polluting factories, and waste recycling systems are built in towns. Old clothes and unused electronic products are collected to be reused instead of being thrown away. Even so, laws alone cannot solve all environmental problems. Real change comes from every citizen’s sense of duty.
A group of teenage volunteers sets a warm example. They hang environmental posters at school in their free time and travel to nearby villages to teach families how to use natural resources properly. They explain that waste sorting is more than keeping streets clean — it greatly lowers the need to dig mineral resources deep in mountains.
These young people often share a meaningful saying: We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children. If we damage nature just for our convenient life today, later generations will have to face all the terrible results. Every small green move counts, and joint efforts will brighten our planet’s future.
1. What do most people think protecting the earth only includes?
A. Long-term environmental plans. B. Simple daily green habits.
C. Developing new clean energy. D. Making strict environmental laws.
2. Which problem is NOT talked about in Paragraph 2?
A. Polluted land and rivers. B. Limited fossil fuel.
C. Fewer wild animals living in forests. D. Low popularity of solar energy.
3. What can we learn about waste sorting from the passage?
A. It only serves the purpose of cleaning streets.
B. It helps reduce damage to underground mineral resources.
C. It can bring villagers a lot of pocket money.
D. It is carried out just to follow official laws.
4. What do the teenage volunteers do to spread green ideas?
A. They build complete recycling systems for villages.
B. They invent new types of clean energy for countryside families.
C. They give lessons on saving resources to village people.
D. They work out new pollution rules for local communities.
5. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Different kinds of pollution all over the world.
B. Ways for governments to control waste pollution.
C. Environmental protection requires long-term thinking and everyone’s effort.
D. Teenagers perform much better than grown-ups in environmental work.
B
Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer remains one of the most valuable novels for middle school students. This timeless adventure book hides precious ideas about growth, courage and honesty behind interesting plots.
Tom Sawyer is a lively and clever boy living in a quiet small town. He dislikes strict school rules and boring housework. With his rich imagination, he plays clever little tricks on people around him. The famous scene of painting the fence fully shows his wisdom—he makes his classmates believe the work is great fun, and they even exchange their small treasures for a turn to paint. In the early part of the story, Tom only seeks fun and never thinks much about others’ feelings.
A frightening experience completely changes his mind. One midnight, Tom and his friend Huck witness a murder in a graveyard. Scared of the bad man, the two boys swear to keep the secret. Days pass, and Tom is filled with guilt. An innocent man will take the blame if no one tells the truth. After fighting with his fear for a long time, Tom decides to speak out in court at the risk of getting hurt. Later, Tom and his classmate Becky get trapped in a dark cave. He keeps calm all the way, comforts the frightened Becky and manages to find a way out with his careful observation.
Lots of readers see Tom as a naughty troublemaker, but the book delivers a clear lesson: growing up does not require us to become perfect. We can keep our love for freedom while learning to take our duties seriously. Real courage does not mean feeling no fear at all. It means holding on to justice and doing the right thing even when we are terrified. The story encourages young people to stick to kindness and never hide the truth to protect themselves.
Decades after its first publication, this book still touches teenagers’ hearts. It guides every young reader to face their mistakes bravely and hold fast to what is right.

The Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang stand as a shining treasure of ancient Chinese stone art, perfectly showing the charm of Amazing China. This world cultural heritage carries more than 1,500 years of history and records the mix of art, religion and daily culture of ancient people.
The carving work first started in the Northern Wei Dynasty. For hundreds of years, artists from different dynasties kept cutting caves and Buddha statues along the Yi River hills. Today, there are over 2,300 caves and more than 110,000 stone statues of different sizes. Every statue has special facial expressions and clothes. The most famous one is the Grand Vairocana Buddha, which is as tall as a five-storey building. Its gentle and peaceful look fully shows the great skills of ancient craftsmen.
The grottoes are far more than simple stone works. They are a living history book. From the clothes and carving styles, scientists can learn how people lived, traded and communicated in old times. Many poets and painters visited here in ancient days and left plenty of great works about this place. In 2000, UNESCO listed the Longmen Grottoes as World Cultural Heritage, praising it as a perfect example of ancient oriental stone art.
Time brings natural damage to the grottoes. Wind, rain and air pollution slowly wear down the stone statues. To save this cultural treasure, experts take protective steps all year round. Local schools also organize student volunteer groups. Teenagers go there to pick up rubbish and introduce its long history to visitors, calling on everyone to respect and protect our cultural heritage.
The Longmen Grottoes remind us that ancient art is the root of our culture. It links the past and the present. As teenagers, we should learn its history and pass this valuable cultural treasure down to later generations.
11. What do we know about the Grand Vairocana Buddha?
A. It was carved during the Ming Dynasty. B. It reaches the height of a five-floor building.
C. It is the only stone statue in the grottoes. D. It was moved here from another ancient city.
12. Why are Longmen Grottoes seen as a living history book?
A. Poets once wrote many poems on the stone walls.
B. They show the life and communication of ancient people.
C. They were built to record great ancient wars.
D. Thousands of tourists visit and write stories here every year.
13. Which of the following is the praise given by UNESCO to the grottoes?
A. The greatest defensive project in ancient China.
B. A perfect model of oriental stone art from old times.
C. The largest group of ancient buildings along rivers.
D. A world-famous place for ancient trade activities.
14. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The stone statues stay well protected without any damage.
B. Volunteers are allowed to repair the broken Buddha statues.
C. Pollution and natural weather harm the ancient stone art.
D. All caves were finished within the Northern Wei Dynasty.
15. What is the writer’s main purpose of writing this text?
A. To introduce the history, artistic value and protection of Longmen Grottoes.
B. To compare different world cultural heritage sites in China.
C. To describe how ancient artists carved stone Buddha statues.
D. To offer advice on reducing air pollution in scenic areas.
四、信息还原(七选五,每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Carbon neutrality has become a hot topic these years. It means cutting carbon gas pollution to zero or balancing out the gas we produce. Carbon gases warm the earth and lead to climate problems like extreme high temperatures and dry weather. ___1___ Burning coal, oil and petrol for energy is the largest source of carbon waste.
Many countries have made long-term plans to reach carbon neutrality. China promises to achieve this goal by 2060. ___2___ As middle school students, we do not need big machines or much money. Small daily choices can greatly cut our carbon footprint.
First, choose low-carbon ways to go out. Walk or ride bikes for short trips instead of asking parents to drive cars. If you have to take a vehicle, buses and shared bikes produce far less pollution than private cars. ___3___
Second, save electricity at home and school. Lights, air conditioners and computers all depend on power made from fossil fuels. Turn off all electric machines when you leave a room. You can also ask your family to use energy-saving lamps instead of old bright bulbs. ___4___
Third, learn to reuse and recycle goods. Avoid buying over-packaged snacks and disposable plastic products. Sort waste strictly so paper, metal and glass can be made into new things. Growing small green plants on your balcony is also a clever idea. Plants take in carbon gas and clean the air around you.
___5___ Carbon neutrality is not only a task for governments and factories. Every teenager’s small green habit adds up to protect our planet for future generations.
A. It also helps us keep healthy and stay away from traffic jams.

Every country has its own special rules of good manners. These polite rules guide people’s words and actions in daily life, and they are important for comfortable communication. British people are widely known for valuing gentle and quiet manners in public and at home.
When British people meet new strangers for the first time, they will stand straight, smile and shake hands softly. This simple way of greeting shows respect. They almost never kiss people they just meet; only close family members can get a light kiss on the cheek as a warm greeting. In all public areas like libraries, underground stations and shopping centres, they form lines naturally and never cut in. They try their best to speak in low voices so they won’t disturb anyone around them. Loud laughter or noisy chatting is seen as rude behaviour.
There are also clear table manners for British families and parties. You cannot pick up your knife and fork to eat before every guest gets their food ready. Talking while your mouth is full of food is quite impolite and should be avoided all the time. If a dish sits far from you on the table, do not stretch your arms across the table to get it. Instead, politely ask the people sitting next to you to pass it to you.
Good manners are not just useless rules. They stand for a person’s self-quality and kindness to others. As middle school students, we should learn basic manners from different cultures and always behave politely wherever we go.
1. Why do British people shake hands with new strangers?
____________________________________________________
2. Who may British people greet with a light kiss?
____________________________________________________
3. What bad behaviour do British people avoid in public?
____________________________________________________
4. How should we get faraway dishes at British dinners?
____________________________________________________
5. What do good manners stand for about a person?
