Summer presents a collection of festivals that combine fun, charity, and awareness. Here are four special celebrations happening in June:
National Go Barefoot Day (June 1)
Established after the 2004 tsunami, this day promotes barefoot walking for health benefits like stronger muscles while supporting Soles4Souls, a non-profit that has provided 19 million shoes globally. You can join barefoot activities or organize shoe collections. By simply taking off your shoes, you can improve your own health while helping children get the shoes they need.
World Oceans Day (June 8)
Oceans cover 66% of Earth and provide 50% of our oxygen, yet 8 million tons of plastic waste pollute them yearly. This day honors the ocean’s irreplaceable roles while inspiring worldwide participation. People can get involved by cleaning beaches, reducing single-use plastics, and watching educational films — turning awareness into action for a healthier planet.
Be a Kid Again Day (June 12)
This lighthearted day encourages adults to relive childhood joys — whether sliding down playground slides, building sandcastles, or rewatching classic kids’ movies. Beyond personal enjoyment, the celebration also supports meaningful causes like A Kid Again, a US non-profit organization that provides fun-filled adventures for children with life-threatening illnesses.
Helen Keller Day (June 27)
Held every year on June 27, this day honors Helen Keller (1880-1968) who became the first person with her disabilities to earn a college degree and wrote 12 books.

As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification (沙漠化). “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable (可持续的) crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers (肥料) rather than chemicals.
In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.”
By September 2016, more than 130,000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2028. In the next couple of years, Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco.
4. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her?
A. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others.
B. They helped her better understand her father.
C. They made her decide to leave the country.
D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
5. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland?
A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage.
6. Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia?
A. To create job opportunities for young people.
B. To promote the protection of their farmland.
C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
D. To help the children obtain a basic education.
7. Which of the following can best describe Sarah?
A. Strict and intelligent. B. Responsible and determined.
C. Ambitious but self-doubting. D. Humble but inexperienced.
C
Musical training is gaining worldwide recognition for its striking impact on human cognition (认知), which has long been paid less attention to in traditional education. A growing body of scientific evidence shows that learning to play a musical instrument greatly promotes brain development and strengthens the processing skills of languages, especially when people try to understand speech in noisy environments.
To explore how music influences the brain, researchers at Northwestern University carried out a controlled experiment, in which they compared two groups of young adults. One group had received continuous musical training for at least four years, while the other had no experience of playing any musical instrument. Participants (参加者) were asked to recognize spoken statements mixed with background noise, and the results showed a clear advantage: those with musical training performed much better in picking out useful sounds from unwanted noise.
Professor Kraus, who was in charge of the study, stressed that continuous musical practice sharply improves auditory processing. The ability to identify pitch, rhythm (节奏) and tone in music directly strengthens the brain’s ability to understand spoken language, benefiting daily communication and classroom learning.
The findings also proved that people with musical training usually have better memories and higher grades in language subjects. Regular instrumental practice helps improve attention and connections, placing a solid cognitive basis for better academic performance.
Based on the above findings, Professor Kraus and some experts suggest that music could receive greater attention in school curricula. Instead of being regarded as an extra subject for relaxation, music should be treated as a key part of basic education that supports all-round intellectual development. Music is not just a form of entertainment, but a powerful type of cognitive training that can effectively improve students’ learning abilities in different fields.
8. What is the function of musical training according to Paragraph 1?
A. To offer people more ways to relax. B. To reduce background noise in daily life.
C. To take the place of traditional education. D. To improve language processing ability.
9. What were the participants asked to do in the experiment?
A. Tell loud noises apart. B. Play musical instruments.
C. Recognize speech in noisy situations. D. Receive four years of musical training.
10. What is the author’s attitude to the present school music education?
A. Supportive. B. Confident. C. Indifferent. D. Dissatisfied.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. School Music Education Needs Greater Attention.
B. Musical Training Improves Language Cognitive Skills.
C. Music Study Helps Noise-Based Language Recognition.
D. Auditory Processing Promotes Language Understanding.

Reading books can be a great way to pick up new vocabulary and develop your understanding of a language while enjoying your time. ____16____ But are you feeling confused by what to read? Here are some useful tips for you.

Children’s books can be a great place to start with. ____17____ His books are written in perfect rhyme (押韵) and they are all very funny. Starting with something like this means you are more likely to finish the book and want to read more.
____18____ This book isn’t too difficult and if you’ve seen the film, it may be easier to follow. If you like reading about historical events, Anne Holm’s I am David is a good read.
If you’re not quite ready to read a full book, why not try Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes?____19____ Or, try a very short book like one from Roger Hargreaves’s Mr Menand Little Miss series. Although they are intended for young children, they are a good way to pick up some more basic vocabulary.
My last piece of advice is to read something that interests you. Look at the short summary of the book on the back cover and see if it looks like something that you will enjoy. Think about the type that is in your own language and find that type in English. ____20____
A. For example, Dr Seuss’s books are sure to make you laugh.
B. All in all, the key to success is choosing the right book for you.
C. It means reading books can bring you knowledge as well as fun.
D. How much you can understand a book depends on your vocabulary.

【导语】文章主要介绍九寨沟美景、旅行建议与特色文化。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:位于中国西南部山区的九寨沟被誉为“人间仙境”。空格处是谓语动词,句子的主语Jiuzhaigou与动词know之间是被动关系,且句子描述的是客观事实,用一般现在时的被动语态,结构为“am/is/are+过去分词”,主语是单数,所以填is known。
【37题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:这个令人惊叹的地方不仅仅提供美丽的风景——它邀请旅行者体验最原始的自然形态。空格处是谓语动词,句子描述的是客观事实,用一般现在时;主语This breathtaking place是单数,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式offers。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这个令人惊叹的地方不仅仅提供美丽的风景——它邀请旅行者体验最原始的自然形态。 invite sb. to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“邀请某人做某事”,所以用动词不定式to experience作宾语补足语。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意:九寨沟最美的季节是秋天,但晚上会变冷,所以准备一件夹克是明智的选择。根据空格后的单数名词choice可知,空格处应该用不定冠词,泛指“一个明智的选择”,wise是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:让九寨沟真正特别的是它的自然美景。空格处修饰形容词special,需要用副词形式;true是形容词,其副词形式是truly,表示“真正地;确实”。
【41题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:走在这片风景中,感觉就像走进了不同的彩色画作。 different后接可数名词复数;paint作为名词时表示“油漆”,此处指“画作”,用painting,其复数形式是paintings。
【42题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:除此之外,九寨沟的藏族文化也值得深入探索。apart from是固定短语,意为“除……之外;此外”。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词或名词。句意:除此之外,九寨沟的藏族文化也值得深入探索。be worth sth./doing sth.是固定搭配,意为“值得做某事”,所以可用动名词exploring;也可用名词exploration。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在藏族村寨,你可以品尝酥油茶等传统食物,还可以参加藏族歌舞表演,这会让你更深入地了解这片土地的文化和信仰。空格处修饰名词foods,需要用形容词形式;tradition是名词,其形容词形式是traditional,表示“传统的”。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在藏族村寨,你可以品尝酥油茶等传统食物,还可以参加藏族歌舞表演,这会让你更深入地了解这片土地的文化和信仰。 空格处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面整个句子(品尝食物、参加表演这件事),关系词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which。
第三节 请用括号内单词的适当形式填空。(共6小题;每小题1分,满分6分)

【答案】surrounded
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个被青山环绕的小湖泊每年冬天都吸引成千上万只野鸭。本句已有谓语动词attracts,空处应用非谓语动词,lake与surround之间是被动关系,使用过去分词,作后置定语。
54. ________ (reflect) on past mistakes helps us take better protective measures now. (所给词的适当形式填空)

57. Excellent students from all provinces will ________ (admit) to this key university this summer. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】be admitted
【解析】
【详解】句意:今年夏天,来自各省的优秀学生将被这所重点大学录取。空格处是谓语动词,句子的主语Excellent students与动词admit之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态;结合空格前的will和时间状语this summer可知,此处用一般将来时的被动语态will be admitted。
58. Over one hundred graduates ________ (employ) by this large company so far. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】have been employed
【解析】
【详解】句意:到目前为止,已有一百多名毕业生被这家大公司录用。此处作句子谓语,主语graduates与employ是被动关系;时间标志so far提示使用现在完成时;主语为复数,现在完成时被动结构为have been done,employ的过去分词为employed,所以应填have been employed。
