“Well, we can donate the old magazines to the library. And this empty paper box can 4 (use) for art projects,” she replied.
“I understand your new thinking, Jenna,” said her dad. “But I want you to put them in this recycling bag with all the other paper things 5 that’s the way we have always done it.”
“Dad! At the recycling center, they taught us to reuse,” Jenna explained as she tied the magazines together with a string (绳子).
“I don’t like 6 idea of giving away our old magazines to other people,” said her dad.
“But when we reuse, we also reduce waste!” said Jenna. “And when we reduce, the recycling center 7 (not get) too full of material. If every family reduces waste, we can make a big 8 (different).”
“Oh, alright then,” her dad accepted 9 a smile. “Put the magazines by the front door. We can drop them off at the library on the way to the recycling center.”
“Great!” Jenna 10 (cheer). “Let’s see what else we can find to reuse.”
【答案】
1.were collecting 2.to put 3.including 4.be used 5.because/as/since 6.the 7.doesn’t get/won’t get 8.difference 9.with 10.cheered
【导语】本文主要讲述了Jenna和父亲在回收日讨论如何更好地重复利用可回收物品的故事。
1.句意:Jenna和她的父亲正在收集可回收物品。此处描述过去某一时刻正在进行的动作,需用过去进行时,主语为“Jenna and her father”,谓语结构为were doing,应填were collecting。
2.句意:她的父亲建议她把空盒子和旧杂志放进回收袋。advise sb. to do sth.“建议某人做某事”,为固定短语,to do 作宾语补足语,因此填to put。
3.句意:爸爸,你知道我们可以重复利用大多数这些东西,包括杂志吗?“can reuse”已作谓语,此处用介词短语作状语,介词including“包括”符合语境。
4.句意:并且这个空纸盒可以用于艺术项目。主语“empty paper box”和use“使用”是被动关系,此处应用含有情态动词can的被动语态,结构为can be done。应填be used。
5.句意:但我想让你把它们和其他纸质物品一起放进这个回收袋,因为这是我们一直以来的做法。前后句是因果关系,前果后因,可用because/as/since引导原因状语从句。
6.句意:“我不喜欢把我们的旧杂志送给别人的想法,”她爸爸说。上文指出“Well, we can donate the old magazines to the library.”把旧杂志送人的想法已提及一次,此处是第二次提及,应用定冠词the表特指。
7.句意:而且当我们减少时,回收中心就没有/不会有太多材料了。when引导时间状语从句,此处可以是描述一般事实,主从句都用一般现在时,主语“the recycling center”是第三人称单数,否定助动词用doesn’t,后接动词原形get;也可以描述将来的情况,遵循“主将从现”的原则,空格所在句是主句,应用一般将来时的will do结构,will not缩写为won’t。故填doesn’t get/won’t get。
8.句意:如果每个家庭都减少垃圾,我们就能带来巨大的改变。make a difference“有作用或影响”,为固定短语。
9.句意:“哦,那好吧,”她的爸爸微笑着接受了。with a smile固定介词短语,意为 “带着微笑”,在句中作伴随状语,修饰动词accepted,表示爸爸同意时伴随的状态。
10.句意:“太好了!”Jenna欢呼道。全文用一般过去时讲述过去发生的事情,此处谓语动词用过去式cheered。

Sam is an exchange student from America. He enjoys exploring new cultures and trying new things. After he arrived at his Chinese school on the first day, he noticed many strange and interesting things, and he wondered 1 he could get along with his new classmates or not.
Firstly, it is quite surprising for him to find the big differences in daily social etiquette. Western people are used to 2 (use) open and expressive body language to show friendliness. He still remembers an international party he attended before, where guests 3 (hug) each other warmly and politely when they met. While in China now, people are more modest and reserved (内敛的). They usually greet others with handshakes or nods instead of close hugs because too close physical touch with strangers is seen as 4 (proper) behavior in Chinese traditions. 5 (two), there are big differences in how people reply to praise. Americans usually accept praise directly and say “thank you”. Chinese people, however, often say “I’m just lucky” or “No, I really don’t do that well”, which sometimes makes foreigners 6 (confusing). They might think, “Why doesn’t he agree with me?” Lastly, people also behave quite differently at dinner tables. Chinese people share dishes together, while Westerners enjoy their own food separately. Sam learned to understand these customs and soon felt comfortable with them.
We 7 (receive) new ideas about different customs as soon as we communicate with foreign friends. 8 sincere respect and proper behavior, we will always leave good 9 (impress) on people from different countries. Learning about these 10 (culture) differences helps us understand each other better and get along more smoothly.

5.句意:第二,人们回应赞美的方式有很大不同。前文用Firstly列举了第一点差异,此处介绍第二点,要用two对应的序数副词Secondly表顺序,句首首字母大写。
6.句意:然而,中国人常会说“我只是运气好”或者“不,我真没做得那么好”,这有时会让外国人感到困惑。此处是“make sb+形容词”的结构,表示“使某人……”,空处修饰人,应用-ed形式的形容词confused,作宾语补足语。
7.句意:我们一和外国朋友交流,就会收获关于不同习俗的新想法。as soon as引导的时间状语从句遵循“主将从现”,从句是一般现在时,主句用一般将来时,receive需变为将来时will receive。
8.句意:带着真诚的尊重和得体的行为,我们总会给来自不同国家的人留下好印象。此处表伴随状语,意为“带着”,句首首字母大写,介词With符合语境。
9.句意:带着真诚的尊重和得体的行为,我们总会给来自不同国家的人留下好印象。leave good后接名词作宾语,impress的名词为impression,此处表示泛指,应用复数形式impressions。
10.句意:了解这些文化差异有助于我们更好地理解彼此,更顺畅地相处。空处修饰名词differences,需用形容词作定语,culture的形容词形式为cultural。

【导语】本文主要讲述交通会造成空气污染与气候问题,文章介绍多种绿色出行方式,并呼吁大家选择绿色出行,守护城市环境。
1.句意:以汽油为燃料的汽车和公交车会产生大量污染空气的有害气体。空处缺一个动词,在定语从句“that...the air”中作谓语,that指代先行词harmful gases,为复数,时态为一般现在时,所以使用动词原形;根据“harmful gases that...the air.”可知,首字母p对应pollute,符合有害气体“污染”空气的语境。
2.句意:自行车不产生任何污染,而且它们对你的健康也有好处。your为形容词性物主代词,后接名词;根据“Bicycles...are also good for your...”可知,首字母h对应health,符合骑自行车对“健康”有好处的语境。
3.句意:许多城市已经修建了自行车道,使人们骑自行车更安全、更容易。该处缺一个形容词比较级,作make的宾语补足语,与easier并列;根据“Many cities have built bicycle lanes to make it...for people to ride bikes.”,建立自行车道的目的是让人们骑车“更安全”,首字母s对应safer。
4.句意:公交车、火车和地铁可以同时搭载很多人,这减少了道路上的汽车数量。空处缺一个动词,在定语从句“which...the number of cars on the road.”中作谓语,which指代“公交车、火车和地铁可以同时搭载很多人”这件事,为单数,时态为一般现在时,所以使用动词的第三人称单数;根据“Buses, trains and subways can carry many people at the same time, which...the number of cars on the road.”,同时搭载多人必然导致汽车数量“减少”,首字母r对应reduces。
5.句意:这有助于减少空气污染和交通堵塞。traffic jams是固定搭配,意为“交通堵塞”,符合公共交通可搭载多人,引起汽车数量较少,从而减少交通“堵塞”的语境。首字母j对应jams。
6.句意:电动汽车也变得越来越受欢迎。becoming为系动词,后接形容词作表语;根据后文描述的电车的各项优点:不排放任何废气(don’t produce any exhaust fumes)、比油车更安静(don’t produce any exhaust fumes)以及充电站增多(more charging stations are built)可知,电动汽车会变得越来越“受欢迎”,首字母p对应popular。
7.句意:步行不仅对环境有好处,而且也是一种很好的锻炼方式。根据“Walking is...a great way to...”可知,步行是一种“锻炼”方式,首字母e对应exercise。
8.句意:如果每个人都选择绿色出行,我们可以让我们的城市更清洁、更健康。空处缺一个形容词比较级,作make的宾语补足语,与healthier并列。第一段指出“交通运输是造成空气污染的主要原因之一。”,相对应地,绿色出行会让我们的城市“更干净”,首字母c对应cleaner。
9.句意:让我们试着更多地把车留在家里,选择更环保的出行方式。more often是固定搭配,意为“更经常/更多时候”,符合“更多时候选择绿色出行”的逻辑,首字母o对应often。
10.句意:让我们试着更多地把车留在家里,选择更环保的出行方式。空处位于不定式to之后,使用动词原形,共同构成不定式短语,修饰前面的名词way;此处描述出行的动作,结合全文讨论交通出行方式,首字母t对应travel,意为“出行/旅行”。

Third, take notes while reading. When you meet new words or wonderful 7 , write them down in your notebook. Don’t be a 8 reader who only looks at words without thinking. If you meet difficult sentences, try to 9 their meanings instead of giving up.
Also, share books with others. Don’t be 10 and keep good books only for yourself. I often exchange books with my deskmate. We talk about different characters and wonderful plots. Sometimes we argue about the 11 in the story, and it helps us understand the book much better.

Light rain continued to fall as I arrived at the mountain village. With a heavy bag on my back, I was excited to teach at a small school here, but a little 1 . What would these students be like?
The school had only 18 students. Most were quiet, 2 they ran and laughed at break. One girl, Wen, always sat alone in the corner, seldom saying anything. On my first day in the classroom, I shared with them a 3 with the words “You are seen” on it and put it up on the wall. Some smiled shyly and some spoke quietly. “That’s why I’m here,” I said. However, Wen didn’t 4 . She was just drawing circles on the desk with her finger.
Days passed quickly. The lessons were 5 planned. The children were kind. But my effort seemed to make little difference. I was not sure if I was doing anything 6 .
One night, a heavy storm caused a power cut, leaving the classroom in darkness. As everyone was frozen, a soft light appeared. It was Wen who was holding a 7 in her hand. “We can still read,” she whispered. That was the first time I heard her voice.
The next day, she sat 8 . In the following days, she began to talk more. In my last class, she came up and gave me the lantern. “So you will always have some 9 ,” she smiled gently.
I came to give light, but found it was quietly 10 . Volunteering isn’t always loud or big. Sometimes, it’s a quiet lantern—shared between the two, and shining in both directions.

【导语】本文讲述志愿者老师去山村支教,起初担心学生,后被内向女孩用灯笼温暖,体现了志愿互助、双向光明的主题。
1.句意:我兴奋地要去这里的一所小学校教书,但有点紧张。
前文说excited,后文问“这些学生会是什么样?”,说明内心有不确定和紧张。nervous“紧张”正确。bored“无聊”、relaxed“放松”、surprised“惊讶”与担心语境不符。
2.句意:大多数学生很安静,但是他们在课间跑着笑着。
前后句意转折,though可表让步转折,意为“虽然……但是……”,正确。so“所以”、since“因为”、when“当”无法构成转折关系。
3.句意:第一天上课,我与他们分享了一张写着“你被看见”的海报并把它贴在墙上。
根据“put it up on the wall”,poster“海报”符合贴在墙上的行为。dictionary“字典”、cake“蛋糕”、cup“杯子”通常不贴墙上。
4.句意:然而,温没有抬头看。
根据后文“drawing circles on the desk”,她只是用手指在桌上画圈,说明没有抬头看老师或海报。look up“抬头看”正确。stand up“起立”、give up“放弃”、wake up“醒来”与动作无关。
5.句意:课程被仔细地计划了。
根据老师努力教学,可知备课仔细。carefully“仔细地”符合备课的认真态度。slowly“慢地”、directly“直接地”、finally“最终”不符备课态度。
6.句意:我不确定是否在做有意义的事。
根据“effort seemed to make little difference”,可知怀疑价值。meaningful“有意义的”符合作者对支教价值的怀疑。simple“简单”、interesting“有趣”、popular“受欢迎”不符语境。
7.句意:是温,她手里拿着一个灯笼。
根据后文“gave me the lantern”,可知是lantern“灯笼”。book“书”、candle“蜡烛”、lamp“台灯”与后文呼应不符。
8.句意:第二天,她坐得更近了。
根据关系拉近,可知坐得近。closer“更近”符合关系改善。farther“更远”、lower“更低”、longer“更长”不符关系变化。
9.句意:“这样你就总会有一些光了,”她温柔地笑了。
根据灯笼功能及主题“give light”,可知是light“光”,与灯笼呼应。fun“乐趣”、time“时间”、hope“希望”不如light直接。
10.句意:我来给予光,却发现光被悄悄地归还了。
根据“shining in both directions”,可知光被回馈。returned“归还”符合双向给予的寓意:作者原本想给予光,但最终女生把灯笼送给作者,相当于把光还给了他,象征善意被回馈。received“收到”没有回馈的含义,accepted“接纳”也不够贴切。connected“连接”不准确。
三、阅读理解
Have you ever imagined living in a smart home? With the development of technology, smart homes are becoming more and more common in our daily lives. A smart home is a house that uses advanced technology to control and automate various systems, such as lighting, heating, security and entertainment.
In a smart home, you can control almost everything with your smartphone or voice commands. For example, you can turn on the lights before you get home, adjust the temperature of your house from your office, or even lock the door remotely. Smart homes also have security systems that can send you alerts on your phone if there is any unusual activity. Some smart homes even have cameras that allow you to check on your house while you are away.
Smart homes are not only convenient but also energy-efficient. They can automatically turn off lights and appliances when they are not in use, which helps save electricity and reduce your energy bills. Some smart homes can even use solar energy to power the house, making them more environmentally friendly.
However, smart homes also have some disadvantages. One of the biggest problems is privacy. Since smart homes collect a lot of data about your daily life, there is a risk that this data could be stolen or misused. Another problem is that smart home systems can be hacked. If a hacker gains access to your smart home system, they could control your lights, locks and even your security cameras.
Despite these disadvantages, the popularity of smart homes is still growing rapidly. Experts predict that by 2030, more than half of the homes in China will be smart homes. As technology continues to improve, smart homes will become even more advanced and affordable, making our lives easier and more comfortable.

In February of 2021, she was so excited to get her first Thank-you note from an owner of a blind dog—Tobby. The 7-month-old dog had shorter front legs than his back legs. Seeing him run and play in his wheelchair, she felt good and decided to go on. Now she can make wheelchairs for animals of all shapes and sizes.

No noisy cars, no smoky kitchens, no sad wild animals—sounds nice, right? These aren’t just dreams: the Netherlands, Mexico, and Ecuador made them real. Let’s see how.The Netherlands
In the 1970s, Groningen faced serious traffic problems because of too many cars in the city centre. The local government took away the motorway and replaced (取代) it with green spaces, areas for walking, paths for cycles and buses. Cars can’t park in the market square and enter the city centre.
Today, 61% of trips in the city are done by bicycle. The city centre is full of places for bikes to park and most buildings have bicycle parks. As a result, today Groningen has got the cleanest air of any big Dutch city.Mexico
In many countries, people still cook and warm their homes using open fires, which cause health problems because of smoke and gas. The Patsari stove, developed in Mexico, uses less wood and makes indoor air better. It has a chimney (烟囱) that takes smoke outside.
Health studies show that families with this stove get 30% fewer lung infections (感染) and 50% fewer eye infections.Ecuador
The Bigal River Nature Park, between the Amazon and the Andes, is home to different animals and birds. However, human activity has a negative effect on the wildlife there. Many animals and birds are in danger because the forests are getting smaller and people hunt them. To show people how wonderful the nature park is, the Sumac Muyu Foundation set up camera traps (野生动物监测相机) in 2014. They take videos of animals and study the changes in their activities. The videos can help stop new building projects in the nature park.
In conclusion, different places around the world are taking creative local actions to solve their own environmental problems.
1.How did Groningen solve its traffic problem?
A.By producing fewer cars. B.By encouraging green trips.
C.By adding more car parks. D.By building new motorways.
2.Why did people in Mexico develop the Patsari stove?
A.To cook food more easily. B.To stop fires from happening.
C.To reduce wood use and improve air. D.To provide heating during cold seasons.
3.What does the underlined word “negative” probably mean?
A.weak B.terrible C.great D.helpful
4.Which can be another example of this passage?
A.India built 50 new hospitals each year.
B.France added 20 train lines between cities.
C.China developed over 100 waste-free cities.
D.South Africa gave free textbooks to students.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.B 4.C

In China, many hundreds of dialects (方言) are spoken. But unfortunately, some dialects are in danger of disappearing(消失). To save them, the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project (中国语言资源保护工程) a few years ago.
It’s well-known that it is important to protect the dialects. According to British linguist Harold Palmer, dialects show the history and culture of an area. They are the keys to storing local cultures. But nowadays, they are easy to be forgotten.
Zhang Hongming, a Chinese expert, also expressed his worries about the disappearing of dialects. “In the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15 can understand but hardly speak the dialect. At the same time, young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well. If this keeps happening, the dialect might disappear. As a result, the cultures and customs behind it might disappear, too.” he said.
This first stage of the project included making a survey about how people talk in 1,712 places. The researchers found 103 dialects are almost gone in these places. Then the project helped China build the largest online language resource library in the world. To build the biggest library, a big national effort has been put into the project.
The project is now going into its second stage(阶段). This includes developing more creative tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people learn dialects.
1.What is the purpose of the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project?
A.To build the largest library for Chinese literature.
B.To spread Mandarin as the primary language in China.
C.To protect local dialects that are at risk of disappearing.
D.To save people who can speak dialects.
2.What does the underlined word “storing” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Questioning. B.Starting. C.Changing. D.Keeping.
3.What can be inferred (推理) from the last paragraph?
A.Fewer people will speak dialects.
B.There will be more ways to learn dialects.
C.People will learn dialects in a library.
D.Schools will teach students dialects.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了国内数百种方言正面临消失危机,我国启动中国语言资源保护工程来挽救方言;文章介绍了保护方言的文化意义、专家对方言传承现状的担忧,以及该工程分阶段开展的调研、建资源库、开发学习工具等各项举措。
1.根据文章第一段中“But unfortunately, some dialects are in danger of disappearing(消失). To save them, the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project (中国语言资源保护工程) a few years ago.”可知,政府启动该工程是为了拯救那些濒临消失的方言。选项C“保护面临消失风险的地方方言”符合文意。
2.根据文章第二段中“According to British linguist Harold Palmer, dialects show the history and culture of an area. They are the keys to storing local cultures. But nowadays, they are easy to be forgotten.”可知,方言展示了一个地区的历史和文化,它们是留存当地文化的关键。结合语境,storing意为“储存、保存”,与选项D“Keeping(保持、保存)”意思最接近。
3.根据文章最后一段中“This includes developing more creative tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people learn dialects”可知,项目的第二阶段包括开发应用程序和移动词典等更多创意工具来帮助人们学习方言。由此可以推断,未来人们学习方言的方式将会更多。
For years, scientists have known how to measure (衡量) the intelligence of a person. Recently they began to do research into group intelligence. Early research shows that group intelligence is not the total of the intelligence of the persons in it. So what is the secret of a group’s success?
Researchers at a research company and a university have both dealt with this question. They believe they finally have a handle on what makes some work teams successful. In the study of the company, researchers collected information and studied it to find patterns. Are members of effective groups friends outside of work? Do members with similar personalities work together best? They discussed many opinions, but found no patterns to support them. In fact, who was in the team did not make a difference. Instead, the difference between more effective teams and less effective teams was in the interaction (互动) among the members. The university group collected information by using digital badges (数字徽章) that people agreed to wear. They provided much information, including how long people spoke, where they were looking during communication, and their body language.
Not only the research company but also the university group found that the key to an effective team was how members communicated with each other.
Among the findings, the most important is that, in effective teams, members spoke for almost the same amount of time—not at every meeting or communication, but the whole course of a project. The second one was that members showed an understanding of how it might feel to walk in somebody else’s shoes. A high level of these two characteristics makes a member feel comfortable when he expresses his opinions and makes suggestions without fear of being doubted by other members. They believe that others will listen to them and value what they say.
One might say that most of these findings are clear. However, understanding group intelligence can help people make the basic changes that are necessary to increase the chance of a group’s success.
1.The words “have a handle on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “________”.
A.have a clear understanding of B.do a lot of research on
C.make a deep discussion about D.have a hard time finding out
2.How did the university group do their research?
A.They collected information on how people behaved.
B.They studied the findings of some earlier research.
C.They asked people questions and explained the answers.
D.They discussed their opinions and found common pattern.
3.What can we learn about the researchers’ findings?
A.It’s important to divide time equally among group members at one meeting.
B.It is necessary for group members to understand each other’s feelings.
C.It is common for group members to be doubted in an effective group.
D.Team members need to talk as little as possible in communication.
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Value of Team Members
B.Secrets of Successful Teams
C.The Competition between groups
D.Different Kinds of Team Communication
【答案】1.A 2.A 3.B 4.B
【导语】本文介绍了两项关于团队智慧的研究,揭示了高效团队的核心秘诀不在于成员的个人特质,而在于成员间的互动方式,包括发言时长均衡与共情理解,并指出理解这些发现有助于提升团队成功率。

3.根据第四段“The second one was that members showed an understanding of how it might feel to walk in somebody else’s shoes”可知,研究发现成员需要理解他人的感受(换位思考)。
4.文章开篇提出“So what is the secret of a group’s success?”,随后通过两项研究揭示了高效团队的关键在于成员间的互动方式(如平等发言、同理心等)。选项B“Secrets of Successful Teams”最能概括文章主旨。
I looked around the ship, and then, I found some long pieces of wood. I made a raft (木筏) by tying them together with ropes. Then I got the things that I wanted from the ship. There was a big box of food. I also took many sharp knives and other tools, the ship’s sails and seven guns.
There were some hills around me, so I decided to build myself a little house on one of them. After some time, I found a little cave (洞穴) in the side of a hill. In front of it, there was a good place to make a home. After a lot of hard work, I had a very fine tent. The cave at the back of my tent was a good place to keep my food, so I called it my “kitchen”. The next day I thought about the possible dangers on the island. So I built a very strong fence (篱笆). Making tents and building fences were hard. I needed many tools to help me. So I decided to go back to the ship again, and get some more things.
I went back twelve times, but soon after my twelfth visit, there was another terrible storm.
The next morning, when I looked out at the sea, there was no ship.
When I saw that, I was very sad. “Why am I alive (活着), and why are all my friends dead?” I asked myself. “What will happen to me now, alone on this island without friends? How can I ever get away from here?”
Then I told myself that I was lucky-lucky to be alive, lucky to have food and tools and lucky to be young and strong. I said to myself, “I’m going to be on this island for a long time.” So on a long piece of wood, I carved (雕刻) these words: I CAME HERE ON 30TH SEPTEMBER 1659. After that, I decided to carve the date each day.

【导语】本文选自《鲁滨逊漂流记》,主要讲鲁滨逊漂流到孤岛上,他返回船上取更多物品时发生了一场可怕的风暴,他感到非常悲伤,但也意识到自己很幸运,有食物、工具,并且年轻强壮。他决定在一块长木头上刻下自己的到达日期,并每天更新。
1.根据第一段“Then I got the things that I wanted from the ship. There was a big box of food. I also took many sharp knives and other tools, the ship’s sails and seven guns.”可知,船上有食物、刀和枪。
2.根据第一段“I made a raft (木筏) by tying them together with ropes.”、第二段中间的句子“After a lot of hard work, I had a very fine tent.”和“So I decided to go back to the ship again, and get some more things.”、最后一段“So on a long piece of wood, I carved (雕刻) these words: I CAME HERE ON 30TH SEPTEMBER 1659.”可知,正确的顺序为②④③①。
3.根据第三段“I went back twelve times, but soon after my twelfth visit, there was another terrible storm.”、第四段“The next morning, when I looked out at the sea, there was no ship.”以及第五段“When I saw that, I was very sad.”可知,十二次登船后遭遇风暴,第二天出海发现船不见了,看到船消失鲁滨逊才变得难过,难过的直接原因是风暴把船吹走了
4.根据第三段“I went back twelve times, but soon after my twelfth visit, there was another terrible storm.”可知,鲁滨逊往返了12次,说明很有耐心;根据第二段“The next day I thought about the possible dangers on the island. So I built a very strong fence (篱笆).”可知,鲁滨逊想到岛上可能存在的危险后建了一个非常坚固的篱笆,说明他很谨慎。结合全文综合推测,鲁滨逊是一个有耐心且很谨慎的人。
5.根据文章最后“I said to myself, ‘I’m going to be on this island for a long time.’ So on a long piece of wood, I carved (雕刻) these words: I CAME HERE ON 30TH SEPTEMBER 1659. After that, I decided to carve the date each day.”可知,接下来最可能的内容是鲁滨逊在岛上生活一段时间后才离开。
When a robin (a kind of bird) sees itself in a window or mirror, it seems to think the reflection (映像) is another robin. The bird may hit the glass, trying to drive the other bird away.
In the 1970s, Dr. Gordon Gallup had an idea. He thought more intelligent (智力的) types of animals might know that their reflections show themselves. To find out, he created an experiment called the mirror test. If an animal passes the test, scientists say that it has “self-awareness”. In Dr. Gallup’s experiments, chimpanzees (黑猩猩) passed, but monkeys failed.
So far, only eight have passed, including humans. Four of them are in the chimpanzee family. Magpies (喜鹊), dolphins, and elephants also passed.
The mirror test has four stages.
In studies with children, a research group put stickers on the foreheads of children who just learned how to walk when they weren’t paying attention. By the age of two, most could notice the sticker in a mirror and take it off.
In Dr. Reiss’s dolphin study, the researchers put marks on two dolphins’ heads. Both dolphins noticed the mark in a mirror. One of them swam to the side of the pool and tried to rub the mark off. A mark placed on elephants’ heads gave similar results.
“Animals that pass the mirror test have a lot in common,” Dr. Reiss says. “They all have large, complicated brains compared to their body size. They all live in social groups and work with each other. They care about others.” The mirror test can’t make us know about every animal’s intelligence.
Dr. Reiss says self-awareness is only one form of intelligence. “Many highly social animals communicate in their own ways. It isn’t about who is more intelligent. It is about what kind of intelligence they show.”
1.What is the writing purpose of the passage?
A.To remind people to care about animals. B.To introduce the advantages of “the mirror test”.
C.To present some facts of “the mirror test”. D.To encourage people to do research on animals.
2.Which of the following shows the animal has “self-awareness” according to the mirror test?
A.The elephant takes the mark on its head off. B.The bird drives its reflection away.
C.The monkey takes the mark on its head off. D.The dolphin drives its reflection away.
3.Which words are the most suitable for ____▲____?
A.Search for the Mark. B.Explore the Mark.
C.Search for the Mirror. D.Explore the Mirror.
4.The following sentence can best be put at the beginning of ________.
Since then, researchers have given the test to many kinds of animals.
A.Paragraph 2 B.Paragraph 3 C.Paragraph 7 D.Paragraph 8
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.D 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了由Dr. Gordon Gallup设计的镜子测试,包括其起源、阶段、通过测试的动物种类及相关研究,说明了该测试是检测动物自我意识的方法之一。
1.文章围绕“镜子测试”展开,介绍了其起源、阶段、测试对象及相关结论,目的是呈现关于该测试的事实信息。
2.镜子测试的Stage 4中“Notice what doesn’t belong. The animal notices a harmless mark on itself and reacts to it.”及倒数第三段“Dr. Reiss’s dolphin study ... A mark placed on elephants’ heads gave similar results.”说明能注意到身上的标记并做出反应的动物具有自我意识,大象把头上的记号取下来表明动物有“自我意识”。
3.Stage 2的描述为“A cat may hold up its paw. Other animals shake their heads or try to look behind the mirror.”,这些行为是动物对镜子本身进行探索的表现,而非寻找标记。因此“Explore the Mirror”符合语境。
4.句子“Since then, researchers have given the test to many kinds of animals.”意为“从那以后,研究人员对多种动物进行了该测试”,文章第二段介绍了1970年代Dr. Gallup的实验,第三段提到“到目前为止,只有8种动物通过了测试”,因此该句放在第三段开头,起到承接上文、引出下文的作用最合理。
Recently, a very special event took place in Shanghai. It is the first time in China that a humanoid robot has performed Peking Opera on stage with a live actor. The robot, named “Scholar 01”, shared the stage with Wang Yuchen, a student from Shanghai Theatre Academy who studies Peking Opera.
Together, they performed the famous Chinese opera Farewell to My Concubine. The robot wore the same traditional costume as human performers wear when playing the role of Xiang Yu, a historical hero. During the performance, the robot walked around the stage, moved its arms gracefully, and even turned its head and moved its eyes to follow the rhythm of the traditional Chinese music.
The audience was amazed by what they saw. Many people thought it was exciting to watch traditional Chinese culture meet modern robotic technology. Some said it was like seeing the past and future come together on one stage. The robot’s movements were precise and helped show the art of Peking Opera in a new way.
This special performance taught everyone an important lesson about how technology can help protect and develop traditional arts. With computers, we can record all the movements of Peking Opera and keep them forever. We can even create new movements that would be too difficult for human performers. What’s more, this shows how we might enjoy traditional arts in new ways while still respecting and protecting our cultural heritage in the future. The success of this performance opens doors for more combinations of technology and traditional arts in China.
1.What does the underlined word “precise” probably mean in paragraph 3?
A.准确的 B.漂亮的 C.快速的 D.强劲的
2.What can computers help us do with Peking Opera movements?
A.Computers can change the music for them.
B.Computers can create more traditional designs.
C.Computers can make them easier for humans.
D.Computers can record them and create new ones.
3.What can we learn from the special performance?
A.Peking Opera is too difficult for robots to learn.
B.Robots will soon replace human performers.
C.Technology can help preserve and promote traditional arts.
D.Technology is more important than traditional arts.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了国内首次人形机器人与真人演员同台表演京剧的事件,并阐述了科技如何助力传统艺术的保护与创新发展。
1.原文第三段提到“The robot’s movements were precise and helped show the art of Peking Opera in a new way.”,结合上下文,机器人的动作能够精准配合京剧表演的节奏,因此“precise”的意思是“准确的”。
2.原文第四段提到“With computers, we can record all the movements of Peking Opera and keep them forever. We can even create new movements that would be too difficult for human performers.”,由此可知电脑可以帮助我们记录京剧动作并创造新的动作。
3.原文第四段提到“This special performance taught everyone an important lesson about how technology can help protect and develop traditional arts.”,由此可知这次表演让我们认识到科技可以帮助保护和推广传统艺术。
Wilbur was a young pig living on Mr. Zuckerman’s farm. He had learned that pigs are killed for Christmas dinner. His friend Charlotte, a wise grey spider who lived in the barn, promised to save him. Now Wilbur was worried and couldn’t sleep.
Wilbur lay down in the manure and closed his eyes. But he couldn’t sleep. The next morning he got up early and stood in the doorway of his pen, looking out at the world.
“Charlotte,” he said softly.
“Yes?” said Charlotte.
“I’m very worried about Christmas. I don’t want to die.”
Charlotte was silent for a moment. Then she spoke in a kind voice.
“You won’t die, Wilbur. I am going to save you.”
“How?” asked Wilbur.
“That I do not know yet,” said Charlotte. “But I am thinking about it.”
Wilbur trembled. “Please think harder,” he said. “I’m not very brave, Charlotte. I’m afraid of dying.”
“You are going to live,” said Charlotte firmly. “Now please be quiet. I can’t think if you keep talking.”
Wilbur tried to be quiet. But he was so nervous that he couldn’t stand still. He walked around the pen, sniffing at the ground. Then he lay down, got up again, and walked some more.
“Wilbur!” said Charlotte. “You are making too much noise. Every time you move, the whole barn shakes.”
“I’m sorry,” said Wilbur. “But I can’t help it.”
“Well, try to help it,” said Charlotte. “And please stop shaking. You are shaking the web.”
Wilbur tried his best to lie still. But after a few minutes, he got up again and walked to the door.
“Where are you going?” asked Charlotte.
“I think I’ll go to sleep in the corner,” said Wilbur.
“Stay where you are,” said Charlotte. “I have an idea.”
“What is it?” asked Wilbur excitedly.
But Charlotte did not answer. She had climbed to the top of her web and was spinning. She pulled a long line of silk from her body and began to write something in the web.
Wilbur watched her carefully. He saw her moving back and forth, back and forth. Her eight legs worked quickly. She was making letters.
“What are you writing?” asked Wilbur.
“You will see in the morning,” said Charlotte. “Now please go to sleep.”
Wilbur lay down again. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep. But he was too excited. He kept
opening his eyes to look at Charlotte. She worked all night long.
When the sun came up the next morning, Wilbur looked up at the web. There, in the middle of it, Charlotte had written two words: SOME PIG
Wilbur stared at the words. “What does that mean?” he asked.
“It means that you are a very special pig,” said Charlotte. “And if people believe that, they will not want to kill you.”
— Adapted from Charlotte’s Web by E.B.White

【导语】本文节选自《夏洛的网》,讲述了小猪威尔伯因害怕圣诞节被宰杀而焦虑不安,蜘蛛夏洛承诺并想出办法帮助他的故事,展现了朋友间的承诺与守护。
1.文中第一段指出:“He had learned that pigs are killed for Christmas dinner. His friend Charlotte, a wise grey spider who lived in the barn, promised to save him. Now Wilbur was worried and couldn’t sleep.”这直接说明威尔伯担心圣诞节的原因是他认为自己会被宰杀作为晚餐。
2.梳理故事情节发展顺序:c.文章开头提Wilbur担心得睡不着觉(Now Wilbur was worried and couldn’t sleep);d.接着Charlotte承诺救他但还不知道方法(I am going to save you…That I do not know yet);a.然后Wilbur紧张得制造噪音(Wilbur was so nervous that he made a lot of noise);b.随后Charlotte有了主意并开始织字(I have an idea…began to write something);e.最后第二天早上Charlotte解释了字的意思(Charlotte explained the words to Wilbur)。
3.根据文章中Charlotte用“kind voice”(温和的声音)说话,承诺“I am going to save you”(我会救你),并且整夜工作织网救Wilbur,可以看出她是善良的并决定帮助Wilbur。
4.最后威尔伯看到网上的字后问“What does that mean?”以及夏洛解释“you are a very special pig”,表明威尔伯仍然担心但很好奇。

【答案】例文
Helping Others Makes the World Wonderful
In our daily life, we often help others, and also get help from others. When we help our classmates, we will develop our friendship. When we help people in need, we will feel happy. I think giving is better than receiving. And I believe helping others is helping ourselves as well.
I still remember my teacher asked me to help my desk mate Mike with his maths several weeks ago. At first, I felt a little nervous because I was not so good at teaching others maths. So, before helping him, I went over the textbook over and over again and did lots of practice. To my surprise, some difficult problems that I couldn’t understand before were worked out by myself. With my help, Mike made great progress in maths, too. From this experience, I realize that helping others also does good to ourselves. Helping each other makes the world wonderful.
In a word, I hope everyone can take an active part in helping others. Let’s make our world filled with love together.

Sam is an exchange student from America. He enjoys exploring new cultures and trying new things. After he arrived at his Chinese school on the first day, he noticed many strange and interesting things, and he wondered 1 he could get along with his new classmates or not.
Firstly, it is quite surprising for him to find the big differences in daily social etiquette. Western people are used to 2 (use) open and expressive body language to show friendliness. He still remembers an international party he attended before, where guests 3 (hug) each other warmly and politely when they met. While in China now, people are more modest and reserved (内敛的).

They might think, “Why doesn’t he agree with me?” Lastly, people also behave quite differently at dinner tables. Chinese people share dishes together, while Westerners enjoy their own food separately. Sam learned to understand these customs and soon felt comfortable with them.
We 7 (receive) new ideas about different customs as soon as we communicate with foreign friends. 8 sincere respect and proper behavior, we will always leave good 9 (impress) on people from different countries. Learning about these 10 (culture) differences helps us understand each other better and get along more smoothly.

I hope my story helps you find your own way to make the world a better place, one small act of 10 (kind) at a time.

Have you ever imagined living in a smart home? With the development of technology, smart homes are becoming more and more common in our daily lives. A smart home is a house that uses advanced technology to control and automate various systems, such as lighting, heating, security and entertainment.
In a smart home, you can control almost everything with your smartphone or voice commands. For example, you can turn on the lights before you get home, adjust the temperature of your house from your office, or even lock the door remotely. Smart homes also have security systems that can send you alerts on your phone if there is any unusual activity. Some smart homes even have cameras that allow you to check on your house while you are away.
Smart homes are not only convenient but also energy-efficient. They can automatically turn off lights and appliances when they are not in use, which helps save electricity and reduce your energy bills. Some smart homes can even use solar energy to power the house, making them more environmentally friendly.
However, smart homes also have some disadvantages. One of the biggest problems is privacy. Since smart homes collect a lot of data about your daily life, there is a risk that this data could be stolen or misused. Another problem is that smart home systems can be hacked. If a hacker gains access to your smart home system, they could control your lights, locks and even your security cameras.
Despite these disadvantages, the popularity of smart homes is still growing rapidly. Experts predict that by 2030, more than half of the homes in China will be smart homes. As technology continues to improve, smart homes will become even more advanced and affordable, making our lives easier and more comfortable.

No noisy cars, no smoky kitchens, no sad wild animals—sounds nice, right? These aren’t just dreams: the Netherlands, Mexico, and Ecuador made them real. Let’s see how.The Netherlands
In the 1970s, Groningen faced serious traffic problems because of too many cars in the city centre. The local government took away the motorway and replaced (取代) it with green spaces, areas for walking, paths for cycles and buses. Cars can’t park in the market square and enter the city centre.
Today, 61% of trips in the city are done by bicycle. The city centre is full of places for bikes to park and most buildings have bicycle parks. As a result, today Groningen has got the cleanest air of any big Dutch city.Mexico
In many countries, people still cook and warm their homes using open fires, which cause health problems because of smoke and gas. The Patsari stove, developed in Mexico, uses less wood and makes indoor air better. It has a chimney (烟囱) that takes smoke outside.
Health studies show that families with this stove get 30% fewer lung infections (感染) and 50% fewer eye infections.Ecuador
The Bigal River Nature Park, between the Amazon and the Andes, is home to different animals and birds. However, human activity has a negative effect on the wildlife there. Many animals and birds are in danger because the forests are getting smaller and people hunt them. To show people how wonderful the nature park is, the Sumac Muyu Foundation set up camera traps (野生动物监测相机) in 2014. They take videos of animals and study the changes in their activities. The videos can help stop new building projects in the nature park.
In conclusion, different places around the world are taking creative local actions to solve their own environmental problems.
1.How did Groningen solve its traffic problem?
A.By producing fewer cars. B.By encouraging green trips.
C.By adding more car parks. D.By building new motorways.
2.Why did people in Mexico develop the Patsari stove?
A.To cook food more easily. B.To stop fires from happening.
C.To reduce wood use and improve air. D.To provide heating during cold seasons.
3.What does the underlined word “negative” probably mean?
A.weak B.terrible C.great D.helpful
4.Which can be another example of this passage?
A.India built 50 new hospitals each year.
B.France added 20 train lines between cities.
C.China developed over 100 waste-free cities.
D.South Africa gave free textbooks to students.
In China, many hundreds of dialects (方言) are spoken. But unfortunately, some dialects are in danger of disappearing(消失). To save them, the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project (中国语言资源保护工程) a few years ago.
It’s well-known that it is important to protect the dialects. According to British linguist Harold Palmer, dialects show the history and culture of an area. They are the keys to storing local cultures. But nowadays, they are easy to be forgotten.
Zhang Hongming, a Chinese expert, also expressed his worries about the disappearing of dialects. “In the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15 can understand but hardly speak the dialect. At the same time, young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well. If this keeps happening, the dialect might disappear. As a result, the cultures and customs behind it might disappear, too.” he said.
This first stage of the project included making a survey about how people talk in 1,712 places. The researchers found 103 dialects are almost gone in these places. Then the project helped China build the largest online language resource library in the world. To build the biggest library, a big national effort has been put into the project.
The project is now going into its second stage(阶段). This includes developing more creative tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people learn dialects.
1.What is the purpose of the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project?
A.To build the largest library for Chinese literature.
B.To spread Mandarin as the primary language in China.
C.To protect local dialects that are at risk of disappearing.
D.To save people who can speak dialects.
2.What does the underlined word “storing” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Questioning. B.Starting. C.Changing. D.Keeping.
3.What can be inferred (推理) from the last paragraph?
A.Fewer people will speak dialects.
B.There will be more ways to learn dialects.
C.People will learn dialects in a library.
D.Schools will teach students dialects.
For years, scientists have known how to measure (衡量) the intelligence of a person. Recently they began to do research into group intelligence. Early research shows that group intelligence is not the total of the intelligence of the persons in it. So what is the secret of a group’s success?
Researchers at a research company and a university have both dealt with this question. They believe they finally have a handle on what makes some work teams successful. In the study of the company, researchers collected information and studied it to find patterns. Are members of effective groups friends outside of work? Do members with similar personalities work together best? They discussed many opinions, but found no patterns to support them. In fact, who was in the team did not make a difference. Instead, the difference between more effective teams and less effective teams was in the interaction (互动) among the members. The university group collected information by using digital badges (数字徽章) that people agreed to wear. They provided much information, including how long people spoke, where they were looking during communication, and their body language.
Not only the research company but also the university group found that the key to an effective team was how members communicated with each other.
Among the findings, the most important is that, in effective teams, members spoke for almost the same amount of time—not at every meeting or communication, but the whole course of a project. The second one was that members showed an understanding of how it might feel to walk in somebody else’s shoes. A high level of these two characteristics makes a member feel comfortable when he expresses his opinions and makes suggestions without fear of being doubted by other members. They believe that others will listen to them and value what they say.
One might say that most of these findings are clear. However, understanding group intelligence can help people make the basic changes that are necessary to increase the chance of a group’s success.
1.The words “have a handle on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “________”.
A.have a clear understanding of B.do a lot of research on
C.make a deep discussion about D.have a hard time finding out
2.How did the university group do their research?
A.They collected information on how people behaved.
B.They studied the findings of some earlier research.
C.They asked people questions and explained the answers.
D.They discussed their opinions and found common pattern.
3.What can we learn about the researchers’ findings?
A.It’s important to divide time equally among group members at one meeting.
B.It is necessary for group members to understand each other’s feelings.
C.It is common for group members to be doubted in an effective group.
D.Team members need to talk as little as possible in communication.
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Value of Team Members
B.Secrets of Successful Teams
C.The Competition between groups
D.Different Kinds of Team Communication
I looked around the ship, and then, I found some long pieces of wood. I made a raft (木筏) by tying them together with ropes. Then I got the things that I wanted from the ship. There was a big box of food. I also took many sharp knives and other tools, the ship’s sails and seven guns.
There were some hills around me, so I decided to build myself a little house on one of them. After some time, I found a little cave (洞穴) in the side of a hill. In front of it, there was a good place to make a home. After a lot of hard work, I had a very fine tent. The cave at the back of my tent was a good place to keep my food, so I called it my “kitchen”. The next day I thought about the possible dangers on the island. So I built a very strong fence (篱笆). Making tents and building fences were hard. I needed many tools to help me. So I decided to go back to the ship again, and get some more things.
I went back twelve times, but soon after my twelfth visit, there was another terrible storm.
The next morning, when I looked out at the sea, there was no ship.
When I saw that, I was very sad. “Why am I alive (活着), and why are all my friends dead?” I asked myself. “What will happen to me now, alone on this island without friends? How can I ever get away from here?”
Then I told myself that I was lucky-lucky to be alive, lucky to have food and tools and lucky to be young and strong. I said to myself, “I’m going to be on this island for a long time.” So on a long piece of wood, I carved (雕刻) these words: I CAME HERE ON 30TH SEPTEMBER 1659. After that, I decided to carve the date each day.

When a robin (a kind of bird) sees itself in a window or mirror, it seems to think the reflection (映像) is another robin. The bird may hit the glass, trying to drive the other bird away.
In the 1970s, Dr. Gordon Gallup had an idea. He thought more intelligent (智力的) types of animals might know that their reflections show themselves. To find out, he created an experiment called the mirror test. If an animal passes the test, scientists say that it has “self-awareness”. In Dr. Gallup’s experiments, chimpanzees (黑猩猩) passed, but monkeys failed.
So far, only eight have passed, including humans. Four of them are in the chimpanzee family. Magpies (喜鹊), dolphins, and elephants also passed.
The mirror test has four stages.
In studies with children, a research group put stickers on the foreheads of children who just learned how to walk when they weren’t paying attention. By the age of two, most could notice the sticker in a mirror and take it off.
In Dr. Reiss’s dolphin study, the researchers put marks on two dolphins’ heads. Both dolphins noticed the mark in a mirror. One of them swam to the side of the pool and tried to rub the mark off. A mark placed on elephants’ heads gave similar results.
“Animals that pass the mirror test have a lot in common,” Dr. Reiss says. “They all have large, complicated brains compared to their body size. They all live in social groups and work with each other. They care about others.” The mirror test can’t make us know about every animal’s intelligence.
Dr. Reiss says self-awareness is only one form of intelligence. “Many highly social animals communicate in their own ways. It isn’t about who is more intelligent. It is about what kind of intelligence they show.”
1.What is the writing purpose of the passage?
A.To remind people to care about animals. B.To introduce the advantages of “the mirror test”.
C.To present some facts of “the mirror test”. D.To encourage people to do research on animals.
2.Which of the following shows the animal has “self-awareness” according to the mirror test?
A.The elephant takes the mark on its head off. B.The bird drives its reflection away.
C.The monkey takes the mark on its head off. D.The dolphin drives its reflection away.
3.Which words are the most suitable for ____▲____?
A.Search for the Mark. B.Explore the Mark.
C.Search for the Mirror. D.Explore the Mirror.
4.The following sentence can best be put at the beginning of ________.
Since then, researchers have given the test to many kinds of animals.
A.Paragraph 2 B.Paragraph 3 C.Paragraph 7 D.Paragraph 8
Recently, a very special event took place in Shanghai. It is the first time in China that a humanoid robot has performed Peking Opera on stage with a live actor. The robot, named “Scholar 01”, shared the stage with Wang Yuchen, a student from Shanghai Theatre Academy who studies Peking Opera.
Together, they performed the famous Chinese opera Farewell to My Concubine. The robot wore the same traditional costume as human performers wear when playing the role of Xiang Yu, a historical hero. During the performance, the robot walked around the stage, moved its arms gracefully, and even turned its head and moved its eyes to follow the rhythm of the traditional Chinese music.
The audience was amazed by what they saw. Many people thought it was exciting to watch traditional Chinese culture meet modern robotic technology. Some said it was like seeing the past and future come together on one stage. The robot’s movements were precise and helped show the art of Peking Opera in a new way.
This special performance taught everyone an important lesson about how technology can help protect and develop traditional arts. With computers, we can record all the movements of Peking Opera and keep them forever. We can even create new movements that would be too difficult for human performers. What’s more, this shows how we might enjoy traditional arts in new ways while still respecting and protecting our cultural heritage in the future. The success of this performance opens doors for more combinations of technology and traditional arts in China.
1.What does the underlined word “precise” probably mean in paragraph 3?
A.准确的 B.漂亮的 C.快速的 D.强劲的
2.What can computers help us do with Peking Opera movements?
A.Computers can change the music for them.
B.Computers can create more traditional designs.
C.Computers can make them easier for humans.
D.Computers can record them and create new ones.
3.What can we learn from the special performance?
A.Peking Opera is too difficult for robots to learn.
B.Robots will soon replace human performers.
C.Technology can help preserve and promote traditional arts.
D.Technology is more important than traditional arts.
Wilbur was a young pig living on Mr. Zuckerman’s farm. He had learned that pigs are killed for Christmas dinner. His friend Charlotte, a wise grey spider who lived in the barn, promised to save him. Now Wilbur was worried and couldn’t sleep.
Wilbur lay down in the manure and closed his eyes. But he couldn’t sleep. The next morning he got up early and stood in the doorway of his pen, looking out at the world.
“Charlotte,” he said softly.
“Yes?” said Charlotte.
“I’m very worried about Christmas. I don’t want to die.”
Charlotte was silent for a moment. Then she spoke in a kind voice.
“You won’t die, Wilbur. I am going to save you.”
“How?” asked Wilbur.
“That I do not know yet,” said Charlotte. “But I am thinking about it.”
Wilbur trembled. “Please think harder,” he said. “I’m not very brave, Charlotte. I’m afraid of dying.”
“You are going to live,” said Charlotte firmly. “Now please be quiet. I can’t think if you keep talking.”
Wilbur tried to be quiet. But he was so nervous that he couldn’t stand still. He walked around the pen, sniffing at the ground. Then he lay down, got up again, and walked some more.
“Wilbur!” said Charlotte. “You are making too much noise. Every time you move, the whole barn shakes.”
“I’m sorry,” said Wilbur. “But I can’t help it.”
“Well, try to help it,” said Charlotte. “And please stop shaking. You are shaking the web.”
Wilbur tried his best to lie still. But after a few minutes, he got up again and walked to the door.
“Where are you going?” asked Charlotte.
“I think I’ll go to sleep in the corner,” said Wilbur.
“Stay where you are,” said Charlotte. “I have an idea.”
“What is it?” asked Wilbur excitedly.
But Charlotte did not answer. She had climbed to the top of her web and was spinning. She pulled a long line of silk from her body and began to write something in the web.
Wilbur watched her carefully. He saw her moving back and forth, back and forth. Her eight legs worked quickly. She was making letters.
“What are you writing?” asked Wilbur.
“You will see in the morning,” said Charlotte. “Now please go to sleep.”
Wilbur lay down again. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep. But he was too excited. He kept
opening his eyes to look at Charlotte. She worked all night long.
When the sun came up the next morning, Wilbur looked up at the web. There, in the middle of it, Charlotte had written two words: SOME PIG
Wilbur stared at the words. “What does that mean?” he asked.
“It means that you are a very special pig,” said Charlotte. “And if people believe that, they will not want to kill you.”
