But did you know that over 1,000 years ago in China, there were dolls just as beautiful and popular? These dolls are Beijing silk figurines (北京绢人). In 2021, the art of making silk figurines was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产). Jiao Tianqi, 30, is an inheritor (传承人) of Beijing silk figurines. “For many, these silk figurines are just art pieces, but to me, they are like my children,” Jiao said. Making a silk figurine takes many steps, like designing, painting and making clothes. Artists must make sure the doll’s head and body are the right size. “For a standing doll, the head should be 1/7 of the body. For a sitting doll, the head should be 1/5 of the body,” Jiao said. Silk figurines are made to look like people from famous stories. The artists want to show what kind of person each character is. When making Lin Daiyu from Dream of the Red Chamber, Jiao studied the book and the look from the TV series. “We made her look down shyly. This shows that she feels a little lonely,” Jiao said. Making silk figurines takes time and hard work. Jiao and her team are using AI technology to help them. They also teach online, hoping more people will help keep the traditional art alive for the future. 24. Who is Jiao Tianqi? A. A school teacher. B. A Barbie doll maker. C. An inheritor of silk figurines. D. An engineer of AI technology. 25. Why did the artists make the silk figurine Lin Daiyu look down? A. To show Lin’s personality. B. To use AI more easily. C. To make Lin more beautiful. D. To follow the standard of a doll’s size. 26. What is Jiao’s wish? A. To become famous online. B. To be popular with children. C. To keep the old art form going. D. To teach more people to use AI. C Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light. Science, though, has found out how they work. When Rainbows Appear Notice the weather the next time you see a rainbow. There will be rain or mist (薄雾) in front of you, and the sun will be shining from behind you. Water in the air and direct light are the two things needed to see a rainbow in nature. A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy. The best time to see a rainbow is usually in the morning or late afternoon. That’s when the Sun is in the best place to create one. Rainbows can even form under a bright moon. They are called moonbows. How Rainbows Form A French scientist named René Descartes studied rainbows over 400 years ago. He used sunlight and a ball filled with water to do experiments (实验). He discovered that to see a rainbow, people must be looking at the light from the right angle (角度). To understand rainbows, it helps to understand how light travels. Light moves at different speeds through different mediums (介质). For example, light moves faster in air. When light enters water, it slows down and changes direction. This is why a pencil in a glass of water looks bent (弯曲的). Rainbows form when sunlight enters raindrops. The light bends inside each drop, reflects off the inside, and bends again when it comes out. This happens in millions of drops at the same time, creating all the colors of a rainbow. 27. Paragraph 1 tells us that __________. A. in fact, there are no rainbows in the world B. rainbows are just tricks made by scientists C. the light plays tricks on our eyes and makes rainbows D. science has found the people who lied to us about rainbows 28. When can we most probably see a rainbow? A. On a misty morning. B. On a snowy night. C. On a stormy evening. D. On a cloudy afternoon. 29. Which could be the best picture for the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? A. B. C. D. 30. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Science Behind Rainbows B. How to Make a Rainbow C. The Beauty of Rainbows D. René Descartes and his discovery D The wild geese landed by a quiet lake to rest for the night. Nils, cold and lonely, couldn’t fall asleep. Suddenly, he noticed something moving in the dark — a red fox was creeping toward the sleeping geese. The fox, Smir, was looking for his dinner. His eyes were fixed on Akka, the old leader of the geese. The geese woke up and flew into the air, but Akka was slower than the others. Smir caught her in his mouth! Nils’s heart beat fast with fear, but he knew he had to do something. He ran toward the fox, shouting loudly,“Let her go, you thief!” Smir just laughed at the small boy and kept running. Then Nils had a clever idea. He jumped and grabbed (抓住) Smir’s long tail, holding on with all his strength. “Let go of me, you little creature!” Smir shouted angrily. He turned his head, trying to bite Nils. But Nils swung (摆动) himself to the side, pulling the fox’s tail so hard that Smir had to open his mouth. Akka fell to the ground! Quickly, Akka flew up to a tree. She was safe! Smir was very angry and tried to catch Nils instead. But Akka called to the other geese for help. Soon, many geese flew down and they pecked (啄) at the fox’s head and back until Smir ran away. Akka flew to Nils. “You saved my life,” she said thankfully. “You’re one of us now.” “You have changed,” she added. “The boy who made fun of animals would not help us. What made you different?” Nils thought for a moment. “When I was big, I never thought about others’ feelings. Now that I’m small, I understand how it feels to need help.” From then on, all the geese trusted Nils. That night, as Nils fell asleep surrounded by his new friends, he felt truly happy for the first time since he became small. He finally found true friends who cared about him. 31. What does the underlined word “creeping” mean? A. jumping suddenly B. moving quietly C. lying peacefully D. flying quickly 32. How did Nils save Akka? A. By pulling the fox’s tail hard. B. By asking other geese for help. C. By making friends with the fox. D. By biting the fox’s head and back. 33. Why did Nils decide to help Akka? A. He was a born animal-lover. B. He liked making fun of foxes. C. He wanted to be the group leader. D. He understood the feeling of needing help. 34. Which of the following best describes Nils? A. Nils always cared about others’ feelings. B. Nils became as big as a human boy in the end. C. Nils taught the geese how to fight against the fox. D. Nils changed from a thoughtless boy to a caring friend. 35. What can we learn from the story? A. Teamwork is the key to happiness. B. Kindness and help can win true friendship. C. Coming up with clever ideas is an important life skill. D. Being part of a group can help stay away from danger. （二） 阅读下面短文，从所给选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整，其中一项是多余选项。 Do you often compare (比较) yourself to others? Do you always try to improve yourself just for others’ praise? If so, you may be having difficulty understanding your self-worth (自我价值). ____36____ It is not about what you look like, what you achieve, or what others think of you. True self-worth comes from within. When you truly understand your worth, you’ll be proud of being yourself. ____37____ Start by finding things you do well in. Maybe you always listen to friends and family patiently. ____38____ Noticing these things can help you think better of yourself. ____39____ You can’t do everything perfectly. When you don’t do a good job, don’t be too hard on yourself. Instead, treat yourself kindly as you would treat a good friend in the same situation. These weaknesses are chances to grow, not reasons to feel “not good enough”. Don’t connect your worth to external factors (外部因素). ____40____ Build your sense of worth on who you are and what you do.

Now you can tell someone and feel better! Starting today, we have a blue “Worry Box” outside the library. * Write your worry on any paper—no need to put your name. * Drop it in the box anytime. * Every Tuesday and Friday, some people will read the notes and write kind, helpful replies. * Replies will be posted on the “Sunshine Board” next to the box. Your feelings matter, and you are never alone. Let’s take care of our minds together! Hi, Worry Box, In my class, we often do schoolwork together. But sometimes, there are “free-riders”. They always enjoy our results. But they keep quiet during discussions. What should I do? Kid Hi, dear. You can communicate with them in a clear way. Tell them everyone in the group needs to take part in the work. Ask them if there is any part of the work they feel more comfortable working on, or if there is something they don’t understand and they need help with. Sometimes they may just not know what to do. Hi, guys. It’s easy to solve the problem. Give everyone a clear job and write names on the board. If someone is still quiet, call them out, “You have to do it in ten minutes.” If they refuse, tell the teacher. Think of your group as a micro community where every job is paid in points. If a “free-rider” stays silent, he will get zero point by doing nothing—No one wants a zero on his record. Write the points on the board. This way, everyone can clearly see the results—who’s working and who’s getting the prizes. So even the quietest student soon finds a voice and a role. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 61.
