B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述蒂姆因体重被同学捉弄参加赛跑，虽被嘲笑但最终坚持跑完，赢得尊重，证明力量源于内心。 【6题详解】 句意：每天，他都希望自己能像其他孩子一样，轻松地快速奔跑和做运动。 根据“like other kids”及后文“out of reach”可知，对他来说运动很难，他希望能“轻松地”像别人一样，easily表示“轻松地”，符合语境。 【7题详解】 句意：有一天，他的一群同学决定捉弄他。 根据后文“They secretly entered him for the school’s long-distance race.”秘密报名让他参加比赛可知，同学们想“捉弄”他，固定搭配play a trick on sb意为“捉弄某人”符合语境。 【8题详解】 句意：他们觉得看他失败会很有趣。 根据前文蒂姆体重超标且不擅长运动，同学们捉弄他是想看他出丑，fail表示“失败”，符合同学们恶作剧的心理。 【9题详解】 句意：比赛当天，蒂姆正要加入同学们一起去看台观看比赛，他发现一些人举着带有他的头像和标语“大块头跑者”和“加油，蒂姆”的海报。 根据“watch the race in the stands”可知，他原本打算“加入”同学行列去看比赛，而非参赛，join表示“加入”，符合语境逻辑。 【10题详解】 句意：他意识到被骗了要参加比赛，僵在那里，感到无助。 根据“tricked“和“froze there”可知，面对突如其来的陷阱，他感到不知所措、“无助”，helpless表示“无助的”，与语境相符。 【11题详解】 句意：比赛开始了，令每个人惊讶的是，蒂姆开始慢跑。 根据大家原本以为他不会跑结果他跑了，这一反差让人感到“惊讶”，固定短语to one’s surprise表示“令某人惊讶”，符合大家意外的心理。 【12题详解】 句意：他一直在跑，尽管他几乎跟不上其他选手。 根据前句“He kept moving”和后句“he could hardly keep up with the other runners.”可知，前后句意存在转折让步关系，即“虽然”跟不上仍在坚持，需用though引导，表示“虽然”。 【13题详解】 句意：随着比赛的进行，情况发生了变化。 根据后文“A few students started cheering for him.”可知，学生开始为他加油，与之前的嘲笑不同，可知情况“改变”了。changed表示“改变”，符合情节发展。 【14题详解】 句意：他们的鼓励让蒂姆感觉更轻松。 鼓励减轻了心理负担，使他在精神上感觉“更轻松”，从而能坚持跑。lighter表示“更轻松”，与鼓励带来的心理效应相符。 【15题详解】 句意：这不再是关于获胜；而是关于向自己证明他能完成比赛。 蒂姆坚持跑下去的目的是“证明”自己有能力完成，而非输赢，proving表示“证明”，符合自我挑战的语境。 【16题详解】 句意：当他冲过终点线时，他倒在地上，几乎不能呼吸。 根据“the finish line”可知，此处是描述到达终点的动作，固定搭配cross the finish line意为“冲过终点线”，crossed表示“穿过”，准确描述了完成比赛的动作。 【17题详解】 句意：他那些曾经嘲笑他的同学，现在都在鼓掌并喊他的名字。 根据前文他们叫蒂姆“Big Tim”以及捉弄他的行为，可知曾经同学们是“嘲笑”他的，laughed at表示“嘲笑”，符合前文情节。 【18题详解】 句意：他没有赢得比赛也没关系。 根据“It didn’t matter”及后文“He had finished”强调他完成了比赛，可知指没“赢”比赛不重要，won表示“赢”，符合语境。 【19题详解】 句意：他跑完了，这超出了他曾经认为可能的范围。 他完成比赛这件事超出了他之前认为自己能做到的“可能性”范围，possible表示“可能的”，符合自我认知突破的语境。 【20题详解】 句意：蒂姆向每个人表明，力量不在于体型大小——而在于内心。 根据前文围绕他因体重问题被捉弄展开，可知这里说的是力量不是由“体型”决定的，size在此处表示“体型”，符合语境。 四、阅读理解 (共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分) （一） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Home-made Lunches for Children A UK study finds that 4,000,000 school children eat home-made lunches. Parents get the lunch boxes ready. Children take them to school and enjoy the food at lunchtime, but only 1% of those lunches are healthy enough. Of all the lunch boxes, … How can you make healthy home-made lunches? For children √Talk about what goes in your lunch with your parents. For parents √Ask your children to cook with you, but don’t let them cook alone. √Make sure your lunch box has food from all the five food groups. √Get the lunch box ready the night before the school day. Keep it in a cool place, so the food won’t go bad. 21. How many of the 4,000,000 school children’s home-made lunches are healthy enough? A. 4,000 B. 40,000 C. 400,000 D. 4,000,000 22. What do 61% of the lunch boxes have? A. Some cakes. B. A bag of candies. C. Some chips. D. A sugary drink. 23. How can children make the home-made lunch healthy? A. Cook the food alone. B. Skip food from any food group. C. Talk with parents about what to eat. D. Put the lunch box in a warm place. 【答案】21. B 22. D 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了英国一项针对儿童自制午餐的研究，说明了目前儿童自制午餐的健康现状，同时分别给孩子和家长提供了制作健康自制午餐的建议。 【21题详解】 第一段指出：“4,000,000 school children eat home-made lunches…but only 1% of those lunches are healthy enough.”，说明4,000,000名学生中只有1%的午餐足够健康，其数量为：4000000×1%=40000。 【22题详解】 根据文中饼图给出的信息“61% have a sugary drink”，可知61%的午餐盒含有含糖饮料。 【23题详解】 根据第一个表格给儿童的建议“Talk about what goes in your lunch with your parents.”，可知儿童可以通过“和父母谈论要吃什么”让自制午餐变得健康。 B Do you sometimes feel too afraid to try new things? To grow and improve, you need to take risks and challenge yourself. However, your brain often prefers to stay safe, whispering, “Don’t try something new.” Even when these thoughts are unreasonable, our anxiety (焦虑) can still win. We may worry more about potential failures (失败) than the good things that could happen. Avoiding all risks might seem safe, but it can lead to unhappiness. Often, we make decisions based on feelings rather than facts, mistakenly believing that feeling scared means something is too risky. But feelings aren’t always right. Learning to think clearly about risks helps us know which ones are worth taking. Whether you’re nervous about changing jobs or asking a friend to meet up, learning to take “good risks” can improve your life. Here are some helpful ways. First, balance feelings with facts. Fear doesn’t always mean real danger. For example, driving feels safe, but car accidents are common. Speaking in public might feel scary, but the actual risk is low. Before avoiding something scary, take a deep breath and ask, “What’s the real risk?” Second, take small steps to succeed. If you’re nervous about a test, make a study plan. Feeling nervous is normal (正常); facing fears builds mental strength, just like exercise builds muscles. If you try out for a team and don’t succeed, ask for feedback (反馈意见) and practice more. With practice, you’ll get better at dealing with risks, and your chances of success will rise. 24. What does the word “potential” mean in the first paragraph? A. possible B. real C. small D. dangerous 25. What does the writer suggest according to the passage? A. Our brain always asks us to try new things. B. Avoiding all risks is the best way to live a happy life. C. Driving a car is more dangerous than speaking in public. D. Feeling nervous means you should stop what you are doing at once. 26. What is the main idea of the passage? A. It explains how the human brain works. B. It lists all the different types of fears people have. C. It teaches us the importance of avoiding risks to stay safe. D. It advises us to learn to take good risks to improve our lives. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述人们害怕尝试新事物、畏惧风险的根源，指出一味规避风险会使人不快乐，并介绍两种合理承担“良性风险”、突破自我的实用方法，倡导主动迎接挑战、适度冒险以改善生活。 【24题详解】 根据文章第一段画线词所在句“We may worry more about potential failures (失败) than the good things that could happen”可知，我们将“潜在的失败”与“可能发生的事情”进行对比，“could happen”暗示了可能性，因此potential意为“可能的”。 【25题详解】 根据文章第四段中“For example, driving feels safe, but car accidents are common. Speaking in public might feel scary, but the actual risk is low.”可知，作者举例说明开车虽然感觉安全但事故常见，而公开演讲虽然可怕但实际风险低，暗示开车比公开演讲更危险。 【26题详解】 文章第一段引出人们对新事物的恐惧，第二段指出避免风险会导致不快乐，第三段提出核心观点“learning to take ‘good risks’ can improve your life”，随后两段给出了具体建议。因此文章主要建议我们要学会承担好的风险以改善生活。 C Colour-blindness, also known as a colour vision problem, is the inability to see the difference between some colours, especially red and green. Most common types of colour-blindness are genetic (基因的), meaning they’re passed down from parents. People can also have colour-blindness later in life due to age, diseases or injuries. We see colours thanks to the special cells at the back of our eyes. These cells are colour detectors. They’re called cones (视锥细胞). The cones in our eyes detect colours when lighting conditions are bright enough. There are three types of cones, with each one sensing red, green or blue light. Red, green and blue are the primary colours of light! So with just the three types of cones, you can see all the colours of the rainbow. Someone is colour-blind because some of their cones don’t work or are missing. They can still see colours, but they might have a hard time telling blue from purple, or red from green. Colour-blindness is fairly common. And men are much more likely to be colour-blind than women. There’s no cure for colour-blindness that’s passed down in families, but most people find ways to adjust (调整) to it. Children with colour-blindness may need help with some classroom activities, and adults with colour-blindness may not be able to do certain jobs, like being a pilot or graphic designer. Keep in mind that most of the time, colour-blindness doesn’t cause serious problems. What about animals? Animals often see different colours from humans. Some see more. Some see fewer. Dogs and cats have only two colour cones and don’t see many colours. Bird eyes, on the other hand, have four kinds of cones. So they see colours we can’t even imagine! 27. What are most common types of colour-blindness caused by? A. Age. B. Diseases. C. Genes. D. Injuries. 28. What can we learn from the text? A. Red, yellow and blue are the primary colours of light. B. There seems to be more colour-blind women than men. C. Children with colour-blindness may not be able to adjust to it. D. Colour-blindness doesn’t have a great influence on people’s life. 29. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Dogs and cats are colour-blind. B. Birds see more colours than humans. C. Animals can see fewer colours than humans. D. Animals have different colour cones from humans. 30. Which would be the most suitable title for the passage? A. How to Treat Colour-blindness B. An Introduction to Colour-blindness C. Why Men Are More Likely to Be Colour-blind D. The Differences Between Human and Animal Vision 【答案】27. C 28. D 29. D 30. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了色盲的成因、原理、影响，并对比了不同动物与人类的色觉差异。 【27题详解】 根据第一段第二句“Most common types of colour-blindness are genetic (基因的), meaning they’re passed down from parents.”可知，最常见的色盲类型是遗传的，即由基因引起。 【28题详解】 第四段最后一句“Keep in mind that most of the time, colour-blindness doesn’t cause serious problems.”，说明色盲对生活影响不大。 【29题详解】 最后一段首句“Animals often see different colours from humans”是主题句，结合全段可知本段主要讲述了动物与人类视觉的差异。选项D阐明动物和人视锥细胞不同，从生理机制角度概括了主旨。 【30题详解】 文章依次介绍了色盲的定义、成因、视觉原理、对生活的影响以及与动物视觉的对比，是对色盲知识的综合介绍。所以选项B“An Introduction to Colour-blindness”是最佳标题。 D This is a tale of a lonely old woman. She lived in the white North. There, the night is long in winter and the day is long in summer. The old woman lived alone in a small village. The villagers took good care of her, but she was still unhappy. She wanted a child of her own. One winter day, she walked out and saw a small white animal on the ice. It was a baby bear. The bear looked small and felt very cold. The old woman spoke softly to the bear, “Poor little thing. Come with me.” Then she carried him home. Inside her house, the old woman held the bear close until he was warm. She touched him gently and sang to him softly. He felt comfortable in her arms. From that day, when the old woman ate, she fed the little bear from her hand. When she slept, the bear slept beside her. They were a family now. The village children loved the bear too. They played together. Time passed quickly and the bear grew big and strong. One day, some villagers said to him, “Little Bear, go hunting with us. We’ll teach you how to hunt.” The bear followed them. Soon the bear became a better hunter than the villagers. When the weather was bad, everyone stayed indoors. Then the bear went out into the snow and brought home enough food for the whole village. The old woman felt proud of him. One day, some villagers said to the old woman, “The bear has grown big and strong enough. He is a good hunter now. You’d better let him go back to the wild.” In the following days, the old woman was quiet, thinking. She thought aloud, “The bear belongs to the wild. I should let him go.” Finally, she said to the bear, “It’s time for you to leave. Be safe. Be free.” She put her arms around his neck. Her tears ran into his fur. She was heartbroken. The bear walked slowly away from her and looked back again and again. Then he disappeared. When darkness fell, the old woman still stood there. Once more, she was alone. A long time passed. The winter came again. One day, the old woman stood at the same place for a long time. The wind blew snow around her face. Suddenly, the white bear appeared and ran to her. Now, once a year, in winter, the old woman and her little bear meet each other at the same place. —Adapted from Little Bear 31. In which season did the old woman first meet the baby bear? A. Spring. B. Summer. C. Autumn. D. Winter. 32. Who taught the bear to hunt according to the tale? A. Some villagers. B. The old woman. C. The bear himself. D. The village children. 33. Why did the old woman finally decide to let the bear go? A. Because she could no longer afford to feed the bear. B. Because she believed the bear belonged to the wild. C. Because the bear became too dangerous to live with. D. Because the villagers forced her to send the bear away. 34. What can we infer (推断) from the underlined sentence in paragraph 10? A. The bear didn’t get well and was still ill. B. The bear was too fat to walk any further. C. The bear did not want to leave the old woman. D. The bear said goodbye to the village children. 35. Which of the following is the correct order of the tale? a. The white bear appeared and ran to her. b. The old woman held the bear close until he was warm. c. Soon the bear became a better hunter than the villagers. d. The old woman decided to let the bear go back to the wild. A. a-c-d-b B. a-d-b-c C. b-c-d-a D. b-a-c-d 【答案】31. D 32. A 33. B 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了独居老妇人在冬天捡到一只幼熊，悉心将它抚养长大；小熊学会捕猎、帮助全村获取食物，老妇人虽不舍，却明白熊本属于野外，最终忍痛放它离开；多年后每年冬季，小熊都会回来与老妇人重逢，歌颂温柔的羁绊与成全式的爱。 【31题详解】 根据文章第三段中“One winter day, she walked out and saw a small white animal on the ice.”可知，老妇人是在一个冬日（winter）遇到小熊的。 【32题详解】 根据文章第五段中村民对小熊说的话“Little Bear, go hunting with us. We’ll teach you how to hunt.”以及随后提到的“The bear followed them.”可知，是村民们（Some villagers）教小熊打猎的。 【33题详解】 根据文章第八段老妇人的思考“She thought aloud, ‘The bear belongs to the wild. I should let him go.’”可知，她最终决定放走小熊是因为她认为小熊属于野外（belonged to the wild）。 【34题详解】 画线句子“The bear walked slowly away from her and looked back again and again.”描述了小熊离开时走得很慢且频频回头。这种行为通常表明依恋和不舍，由此可推断小熊不想离开老妇人。 【35题详解】 根据故事发展脉络：首先老妇人救下小熊并为其取暖（b）；接着小熊长大成为比村民更优秀的猎手（c）；然后老妇人决定让小熊回归野外（d）；最后多年后冬季小熊再次出现跑向她（a）。正确顺序为 b-c-d-a。 （二） 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 (选项中有一项为多余选项)。 The Journey of Self-Discovery People make long journeys to different countries. ____36____ However, the biggest journey is the self-discovery journey.

E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何开始自我发现之旅，并给出了四条建议。 【36题详解】 前文“People make long journeys to different countries.”提到人们长途跋涉到不同的国家。后文“However, the biggest journey is the self-discovery journey.”提到但最大的旅程是自我发现之旅。可知，此处应继续描述人们现实层面的旅程，与后文形成对比，选项A“有些人甚至可以进入太空。”符合语境，构成从国家到太空的递进，并和下文形成对比。 【37题详解】 根据该段小标题“Find out your most valuable ability.”和前文“You need to find out the answer.”可知，此处是说你需要找到“自己最值得骄傲的能力”的答案，选项D“这会帮助你更好地了解自己。”是找到答案后的结果，呼应了“自我发现”的主题。 【38题详解】 前文“You can do some outdoor activities you are afraid of.”提到你可以做一些自己害怕的户外活动，后文“This will give you a chance to learn more about how you feel, think and react when the challenge comes.”提到这会给你机会了解自己面对挑战时的感受、思考和反应。 选项F“例如，你可以去进行一次有难度的攀岩。”是对“害怕的户外活动”的具体举例，能衔接前后内容。 【39题详解】 后文“It is also a powerful way to discover things about yourself.”提到这也是一种发现自己的强大方式。以及后文“When you are in a different place where people share different thoughts, you may have a chance to rethink about what you always believe.”提到当你身处一个不同的地方，人们有着不同的想法时，你可能有机会重新思考你一直相信的东西，可知本段建议去不同的地方，选项C“把时间花在新的环境中。”和本段内容相符，适合作为该段的主旨句。 【40题详解】 前文“People may want to finish the journey as soon as possible.”提到人们可能想尽快完成旅程。后文“As you go through life, many experiences can change you, and this helps you grow.”提到当你经历生活时，许多经历会改变你，可知自我发现不是短期的，选项E“事实上，自我发现之旅是一项终身任务。”符合语境，与前句形成转折对比。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题 (共55分) 五、词汇运用 （一） (共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词或短语并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺，意思完整，每词或短语限用一次。 come up with good method smoothly he Li Hua is a creative and energetic student who is curious about science and technology.

It connects us to the past and shows the creativity of people. In Jiangsu, China, the Dafeng district is known for its special traditional art. One of its most amazing art forms is Dafeng Porcelain Carving (大丰瓷刻). This craft turns simple, white porcelain into beautiful carved artwork. Dafeng Porcelain Carving has a long history. It started in the late Qing Dynasty, over a hundred years ago. For some time, this art was almost lost because it is very difficult to learn. Luckily, skilled artists worked hard to save it. These artists are called “inheritors”, and they pass the skills to the next generation, keeping the art alive. Making a porcelain carving requires great patience and care. First, the artist chooses a perfect piece of white porcelain. Then, they draw a pattern on it. Next, using small, special tools like diamond-tipped knives, they carefully carve the design into the hard surface. This is the most challenging step because the porcelain can easily break. Finally, they may add color to the carving to make it more lively and bright. Dafeng Porcelain Carving is very important. It is not just a decoration; it is part of China’s cultural heritage (遗产). This art form shows the hard work and creative spirit of Chinese craftspeople (手艺人). By learning about and appreciating Dafeng Porcelain Carving, we help to protect an important piece of history and keep this beautiful tradition alive for the future. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 61.

Parents get the lunch boxes ready. Children take them to school and enjoy the food at lunchtime, but only 1% of those lunches are healthy enough. Of all the lunch boxes, … How can you make healthy home-made lunches? For children √Talk about what goes in your lunch with your parents. For parents √Ask your children to cook with you, but don’t let them cook alone. √Make sure your lunch box has food from all the five food groups. √Get the lunch box ready the night before the school day. Keep it in a cool place, so the food won’t go bad. 21. How many of the 4,000,000 school children’s home-made lunches are healthy enough? A. 4,000 B. 40,000 C. 400,000 D. 4,000,000 22.

Skip food from any food group. C. Talk with parents about what to eat. D. Put the lunch box in a warm place. B Do you sometimes feel too afraid to try new things? To grow and improve, you need to take risks and challenge yourself. However, your brain often prefers to stay safe, whispering, “Don’t try something new.” Even when these thoughts are unreasonable, our anxiety (焦虑) can still win. We may worry more about potential failures (失败) than the good things that could happen. Avoiding all risks might seem safe, but it can lead to unhappiness. Often, we make decisions based on feelings rather than facts, mistakenly believing that feeling scared means something is too risky. But feelings aren’t always right. Learning to think clearly about risks helps us know which ones are worth taking. Whether you’re nervous about changing jobs or asking a friend to meet up, learning to take “good risks” can improve your life. Here are some helpful ways. First, balance feelings with facts. Fear doesn’t always mean real danger. For example, driving feels safe, but car accidents are common. Speaking in public might feel scary, but the actual risk is low. Before avoiding something scary, take a deep breath and ask, “What’s the real risk?” Second, take small steps to succeed. If you’re nervous about a test, make a study plan. Feeling nervous is normal (正常); facing fears builds mental strength, just like exercise builds muscles. If you try out for a team and don’t succeed, ask for feedback (反馈意见) and practice more. With practice, you’ll get better at dealing with risks, and your chances of success will rise. 24. What does the word “potential” mean in the first paragraph? A. possible B. real C. small D. dangerous 25. What does the writer suggest according to the passage? A. Our brain always asks us to try new things. B. Avoiding all risks is the best way to live a happy life. C. Driving a car is more dangerous than speaking in public. D. Feeling nervous means you should stop what you are doing at once. 26. What is the main idea of the passage? A. It explains how the human brain works. B. It lists all the different types of fears people have. C. It teaches us the importance of avoiding risks to stay safe. D. It advises us to learn to take good risks to improve our lives. C Colour-blindness, also known as a colour vision problem, is the inability to see the difference between some colours, especially red and green. Most common types of colour-blindness are genetic (基因的), meaning they’re passed down from parents. People can also have colour-blindness later in life due to age, diseases or injuries. We see colours thanks to the special cells at the back of our eyes. These cells are colour detectors. They’re called cones (视锥细胞). The cones in our eyes detect colours when lighting conditions are bright enough. There are three types of cones, with each one sensing red, green or blue light. Red, green and blue are the primary colours of light! So with just the three types of cones, you can see all the colours of the rainbow. Someone is colour-blind because some of their cones don’t work or are missing. They can still see colours, but they might have a hard time telling blue from purple, or red from green. Colour-blindness is fairly common. And men are much more likely to be colour-blind than women. There’s no cure for colour-blindness that’s passed down in families, but most people find ways to adjust (调整) to it. Children with colour-blindness may need help with some classroom activities, and adults with colour-blindness may not be able to do certain jobs, like being a pilot or graphic designer. Keep in mind that most of the time, colour-blindness doesn’t cause serious problems. What about animals? Animals often see different colours from humans. Some see more. Some see fewer. Dogs and cats have only two colour cones and don’t see many colours. Bird eyes, on the other hand, have four kinds of cones. So they see colours we can’t even imagine! 27. What are most common types of colour-blindness caused by? A. Age. B. Diseases. C. Genes. D. Injuries. 28. What can we learn from the text? A. Red, yellow and blue are the primary colours of light. B. There seems to be more colour-blind women than men. C. Children with colour-blindness may not be able to adjust to it. D. Colour-blindness doesn’t have a great influence on people’s life. 29. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Dogs and cats are colour-blind. B. Birds see more colours than humans. C. Animals can see fewer colours than humans. D. Animals have different colour cones from humans. 30. Which would be the most suitable title for the passage? A. How to Treat Colour-blindness B. An Introduction to Colour-blindness C. Why Men Are More Likely to Be Colour-blind D. The Differences Between Human and Animal Vision D This is a tale of a lonely old woman. She lived in the white North. There, the night is long in winter and the day is long in summer. The old woman lived alone in a small village. The villagers took good care of her, but she was still unhappy. She wanted a child of her own. One winter day, she walked out and saw a small white animal on the ice. It was a baby bear. The bear looked small and felt very cold. The old woman spoke softly to the bear, “Poor little thing. Come with me.” Then she carried him home. Inside her house, the old woman held the bear close until he was warm. She touched him gently and sang to him softly. He felt comfortable in her arms. From that day, when the old woman ate, she fed the little bear from her hand. When she slept, the bear slept beside her. They were a family now. The village children loved the bear too. They played together. Time passed quickly and the bear grew big and strong. One day, some villagers said to him, “Little Bear, go hunting with us. We’ll teach you how to hunt.” The bear followed them. Soon the bear became a better hunter than the villagers. When the weather was bad, everyone stayed indoors. Then the bear went out into the snow and brought home enough food for the whole village. The old woman felt proud of him. One day, some villagers said to the old woman, “The bear has grown big and strong enough. He is a good hunter now. You’d better let him go back to the wild.” In the following days, the old woman was quiet, thinking. She thought aloud, “The bear belongs to the wild. I should let him go.” Finally, she said to the bear, “It’s time for you to leave. Be safe. Be free.” She put her arms around his neck. Her tears ran into his fur. She was heartbroken. The bear walked slowly away from her and looked back again and again. Then he disappeared. When darkness fell, the old woman still stood there. Once more, she was alone. A long time passed. The winter came again. One day, the old woman stood at the same place for a long time. The wind blew snow around her face. Suddenly, the white bear appeared and ran to her. Now, once a year, in winter, the old woman and her little bear meet each other at the same place. —Adapted from Little Bear 31. In which season did the old woman first meet the baby bear? A. Spring.

It connects us to the past and shows the creativity of people. In Jiangsu, China, the Dafeng district is known for its special traditional art. One of its most amazing art forms is Dafeng Porcelain Carving (大丰瓷刻). This craft turns simple, white porcelain into beautiful carved artwork. Dafeng Porcelain Carving has a long history. It started in the late Qing Dynasty, over a hundred years ago. For some time, this art was almost lost because it is very difficult to learn. Luckily, skilled artists worked hard to save it. These artists are called “inheritors”, and they pass the skills to the next generation, keeping the art alive. Making a porcelain carving requires great patience and care. First, the artist chooses a perfect piece of white porcelain. Then, they draw a pattern on it. Next, using small, special tools like diamond-tipped knives, they carefully carve the design into the hard surface. This is the most challenging step because the porcelain can easily break. Finally, they may add color to the carving to make it more lively and bright. Dafeng Porcelain Carving is very important. It is not just a decoration; it is part of China’s cultural heritage (遗产). This art form shows the hard work and creative spirit of Chinese craftspeople (手艺人). By learning about and appreciating Dafeng Porcelain Carving, we help to protect an important piece of history and keep this beautiful tradition alive for the future. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 61.
