It is the longest wall in the world. It goes up and down from mountains to mountains like a huge dragon. 1 People built it to protect the country. They used stones and bricks to make it strong. It has a long history of over 2,000 years. 2 The most famous parts of the wall were built in the Ming Dynasty. It became stronger and longer. 3 If they saw something, they would send a signal (信号) to others. Soldiers would walk along the wall to protect it. Today, it is a place for people to visit and learn about China’s history and culture. Many people from all over the world come to see it. 4 It’s fun and exciting to go up the steps and see the view from high up. When they get to the top, they often take pictures to remember the moment. 5 It’s like a big storybook that opens up and tells us stories about the past. It shows us how the Chinese people worked together to build something so amazing and strong. It’s a treasure that helps us understand the courage and hard work of the Chinese people long ago. A．They like to climb up the Great Wall. B．It is one of the great wonders in human history. C．All the work had to be done by hand in ancient times. D．The wall has tall towers where people could watch for danger. E．The Great Wall is more than just a wall. F．The first part of it was built during the Spring and Autumn Period.

But today, the internet lets us reach faraway places from home. 1 By December 2025, China had over 1.1 billion internet users, and more than 80% of the population was online. The world is now truly just a click away. 2 You can “walk” through the Palace Museum in Beijing and zoom in on ancient treasures. The “Digital Dunhuang” project lets you visit the 1,400-year-old Mogao Caves online. You can move around freely and admire the beautiful wall paintings up close. Millions of people visit these virtual caves every year. The internet connects us with more than just places. 3 In 2025, over 500 million Chinese people booked travel online. During the 2026 Spring Festival, a 16-hour global live broadcast connected more than 30 cities. People shared their food, music, and traditions in real time. It felt like the whole world was celebrating together. Of course, the online world has its dangers. 4 False news and cyberbullying (网络欺凌) can cause real harm. Learning to use the internet safely is an important skill for everyone. In a word, the internet opens a magic window to the world. 5 So next time you want an adventure, why not start with a click?

The traditional Dragon Head Raising Festival happened on the same day as the Spring Equinox (春分)—a special meeting that takes place about once every 19 years. The next one will happen in 2045. Celebrated on the second day of the second lunar month, the Dragon Head Raising Festival gets its meaning from ancient ideas about nature and new beginnings. In Chinese stories, the dragon wakes up with spring thunder, bringing life back to the land. For many people, the day marks a fresh start and carries the promise of a good harvest. Well-loved traditions continue across the country. Many choose to get a haircut, a practice meant to leave behind bad luck and welcome new chances. Special “dragon-themed” foods are also widely enjoyed: spring pancakes for dragon scales, noodles for dragon whiskers (龙须面), and wontons (馄饨) for dragon eyes. These dishes carry sincere wishes for health and good luck. Some families use herbs (草药) to drive away insects, expressing hopes for health and successful farming. The Spring Equinox, one of China’s 24 Solar Terms, arrives as the sun crosses the equator (赤道), making day and night almost equal in length around the world. As temperatures rise, swallows return, and thunder becomes more common. With good weather, enough rain and bright sunshine, crops grow quickly, making the equinox very important for farming. The coming together of these two events carries double meaning. The festival stands for rain, energy and the start of spring farming. The equinox represents balance, harmony (和谐) and natural growth. Together, they show the deep connection between Chinese culture and nature, and express people’s common hope for good weather and fruitful years. 每题答案不超过10个单词。   1．How often does the special meeting take place? 2．Where does the Dragon Head Raising Festival get its meaning from? 3．Why do many people choose to get a haircut on the second day of the second lunar month? 4．Why is the Spring Equinox important for farming? 5．What do you think of Chinese cultural traditions? (请自拟一句话作答) 练习二：阅读下面短文，回答短文后的问题。（前3题每题答案不超过10个词） “Though I was born with half a left arm, I don’t think I’m unlucky.” said Ms Yang, a 35-year-old woman from a small village in Hunan.

In 2014, her business finally started making money. Then she tried to do something for society. Xiang embroidery has a history of over 2,000 years.

A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (适中的节奏). “Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added. The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts. Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s violin-pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them. 19．What does the underlined word enhance mean? A．Produce B．provide C．improve D．impress 20．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________. A．you should follow your parents’ words B．you have some good reasons to join in an IQ test C．good marks depend on listening to music and exercising D．exercise to music might help you get higher grades in tests 21．Which of the following statements is true? A．Music helps volunteers get better from heart disease. B．Exercise is used for people with head hurts. C．Exercise causes no changes in health without music. D．Music can help you relax and feel energetic. 信息还原 Recharge (充电) Your Body’s Battery My phone is showing that little red low-battery sign. What if I didn’t recharge it? No, that would stress me out. But what if I took a few minutes to recharge myself—yes, that would help. But how? 26 Tell yourself the truth. When something stressful happens, we often can’t help taking a deep breath at first. But we control what happens next. It’s possible to work with our stress, rather than against it. Remember to thank it and remind yourself: “ 27 ” Turn your attention to joy. To protect energy stores, turn your attention to being present. Focus on what you can feel thankful for. Smiling can reduce stress. Joy can recharge us. Plant something in your day that you look forward to. Work your stress out. You might think that all of your feelings live in your brain. But in fact, we feel them with our whole bodies. 28 It can change how you feel. Also, heating up and cooling down, like taking a shower, may cheer you up. 29 Being in crowded and busy places sends our bodies signs of danger. We can recharge our batteries with green space time—look for a park, gardens or plants to calm our bodies and minds. Life is short. It’s even shorter living on half a battery. We can break our daily stress habits and get more energy. A．My body is producing energy to help me solve it. B．Relax yourself in green. C．My energy is running out. D．Here are a few ways to recharge yourself. E．Doing exercise can help your body reduce stress. F．Joy can make us cheerful. 任务型阅读 阅读下面短文，回答短文后的问题（前3题每题答案不超过10词，第4题字数不限。） In a village school in Hubei, teachers find that mobile phone addiction (瘾) has become a new problem among teenagers. Their students play games on mobile phones after returning home, and some of them don’t complete homework. When they’re in class, they still think about their games. Pan Jiani, 11, likes watching funny short videos on the phone. Her parents are working in the city. Now she lives with her grandparents. “If she stays with us, the time of playing on her mobile phone can be limited. If we’re not around, she sometimes plays for a long time,” said her grandpa. According to the teachers, boys prefer to play games. Pan Longye, 11, likes watching cartoons and playing games on the phone. His mother said, “Sometimes I give the mobile phone to him, and then I’m so busy that I forget it. In this situation, he plays for two or three hours.” Research shows that when it comes to playing on mobile phones, the city children can be controlled by their parents, while the village children can hardly be controlled by their grandparents. How can families and society help solve this problem? Since most left-behind children (留守儿童) live with their grandparents, it’s necessary for the elderly people to organize activities for children after school, like doing some housework and farm work. The Internet should also provide left-behind children with interesting learning resources, which can draw their attention and help them avoid harmful information online. 30．What bad influence does mobile phone addiction have on the students’ studies? 31．What can the elderly people do to help deal with the problem? 32．What is the main purpose of providing online learning resources to left-behind children? 33．As a teenager, how can you use mobile phones wisely? 综合填空 I first watched the movie Forrest Gump (阿甘正传) at the age of ten. The main character Gump was born 44 a learning disability and a physical problem. But he 45 (achieve) great success at last. Last week I watched the movie again in my English class. After watching the movie, my teacher, Miss Li, replayed a short video in which Gump’s mother is dying. Then she asked us to describe these 46 (character) feelings. We also shared our understanding of a few lines (台词). After that, we discussed the following questions: How can you live a life worth 47 (live)? What should you do when facing death? Everyone had different 48 (idea). Later, we were asked 49 (watch) the video again and read the lines together with the characters. Then we tried our best to copy their 50 (pronounce) and intonation (语调). And we 51 (require) to act out the lines. From this class, we 52 (learn) not only some good ways to learn English, but also the meaning of life. As Gump says in the movie, “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get.” When we want to do something, we’d better work hard at it. Only in this way can we live 53 meaningful life. 课后作业 一、单项选择 1．At last, the poor boy was ________.

It is the longest wall in the world. It goes up and down from mountains to mountains like a huge dragon. 1 People built it to protect the country. They used stones and bricks to make it strong. It has a long history of over 2,000 years. 2 The most famous parts of the wall were built in the Ming Dynasty. It became stronger and longer. 3 If they saw something, they would send a signal (信号) to others. Soldiers would walk along the wall to protect it. Today, it is a place for people to visit and learn about China’s history and culture. Many people from all over the world come to see it. 4 It’s fun and exciting to go up the steps and see the view from high up. When they get to the top, they often take pictures to remember the moment. 5 It’s like a big storybook that opens up and tells us stories about the past. It shows us how the Chinese people worked together to build something so amazing and strong. It’s a treasure that helps us understand the courage and hard work of the Chinese people long ago.

But today, the internet lets us reach faraway places from home. 1 By December 2025, China had over 1.1 billion internet users, and more than 80% of the population was online. The world is now truly just a click away. 2 You can “walk” through the Palace Museum in Beijing and zoom in on ancient treasures. The “Digital Dunhuang” project lets you visit the 1,400-year-old Mogao Caves online. You can move around freely and admire the beautiful wall paintings up close. Millions of people visit these virtual caves every year. The internet connects us with more than just places. 3 In 2025, over 500 million Chinese people booked travel online. During the 2026 Spring Festival, a 16-hour global live broadcast connected more than 30 cities. People shared their food, music, and traditions in real time. It felt like the whole world was celebrating together. Of course, the online world has its dangers. 4 False news and cyberbullying (网络欺凌) can cause real harm. Learning to use the internet safely is an important skill for everyone. In a word, the internet opens a magic window to the world. 5 So next time you want an adventure, why not start with a click? A．It also brings people and different cultures closer. B．With just one click, you can experience the wonders of the world online. C．Virtual museums are a great example of this. D．If we use it wisely, it can make our lives much more convenient. E．You can watch live broadcasts and even join online cultural events. F．Without careful use, it can bring trouble instead of joy.

The traditional Dragon Head Raising Festival happened on the same day as the Spring Equinox (春分)—a special meeting that takes place about once every 19 years. The next one will happen in 2045. Celebrated on the second day of the second lunar month, the Dragon Head Raising Festival gets its meaning from ancient ideas about nature and new beginnings. In Chinese stories, the dragon wakes up with spring thunder, bringing life back to the land. For many people, the day marks a fresh start and carries the promise of a good harvest. Well-loved traditions continue across the country. Many choose to get a haircut, a practice meant to leave behind bad luck and welcome new chances. Special “dragon-themed” foods are also widely enjoyed: spring pancakes for dragon scales, noodles for dragon whiskers (龙须面), and wontons (馄饨) for dragon eyes. These dishes carry sincere wishes for health and good luck. Some families use herbs (草药) to drive away insects, expressing hopes for health and successful farming. The Spring Equinox, one of China’s 24 Solar Terms, arrives as the sun crosses the equator (赤道), making day and night almost equal in length around the world. As temperatures rise, swallows return, and thunder becomes more common. With good weather, enough rain and bright sunshine, crops grow quickly, making the equinox very important for farming. The coming together of these two events carries double meaning. The festival stands for rain, energy and the start of spring farming. The equinox represents balance, harmony (和谐) and natural growth. Together, they show the deep connection between Chinese culture and nature, and express people’s common hope for good weather and fruitful years. 每题答案不超过10个单词。   1．How often does the special meeting take place? 2．Where does the Dragon Head Raising Festival get its meaning from? 3．Why do many people choose to get a haircut on the second day of the second lunar month? 4．Why is the Spring Equinox important for farming? 5．What do you think of Chinese cultural traditions?

A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease after operations. They found those volunteers who exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons did much better on language ability tests than without music. It is also used in medical fields for patients who have had head hurts because of its moderate tempo (适中的节奏). “Exercise seems to cause positive changes in the nerve (神经) system and these changes may improve the learning ability of people with heart disease,” said the psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study. “And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. We just wanted to put the two results together,” he added. The volunteers said they felt better emotionally and physically after exercising with or without music. But their improvement on the test doubled after listening to music during exercise. Scientists have proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress and sadness, encourage relaxation or sleep, wake up the body and improve memory and thoughts. Scientists have been studying the results of exercise to music on learning and understanding since the early 1950s. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s violin-pieces and exercised went on to get higher marks in an IQ test. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music or play sports. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them. 19．What does the underlined word enhance mean? A．Produce B．provide C．improve D．impress 20．From the last paragraph we can learn that ________. A．you should follow your parents’ words B．you have some good reasons to join in an IQ test C．good marks depend on listening to music and exercising D．exercise to music might help you get higher grades in tests 21．Which of the following statements is true? A．Music helps volunteers get better from heart disease. B．Exercise is used for people with head hurts. C．Exercise causes no changes in health without music. D．Music can help you relax and feel energetic. CDD 信息还原 Recharge (充电) Your Body’s Battery My phone is showing that little red low-battery sign. What if I didn’t recharge it? No, that would stress me out. But what if I took a few minutes to recharge myself—yes, that would help. But how? 26 Tell yourself the truth. When something stressful happens, we often can’t help taking a deep breath at first. But we control what happens next. It’s possible to work with our stress, rather than against it. Remember to thank it and remind yourself: “ 27 ” Turn your attention to joy. To protect energy stores, turn your attention to being present. Focus on what you can feel thankful for. Smiling can reduce stress. Joy can recharge us. Plant something in your day that you look forward to. Work your stress out. You might think that all of your feelings live in your brain. But in fact, we feel them with our whole bodies. 28 It can change how you feel. Also, heating up and cooling down, like taking a shower, may cheer you up. 29 Being in crowded and busy places sends our bodies signs of danger. We can recharge our batteries with green space time—look for a park, gardens or plants to calm our bodies and minds. Life is short. It’s even shorter living on half a battery. We can break our daily stress habits and get more energy. A．My body is producing energy to help me solve it. B．Relax yourself in green. C．My energy is running out. D．Here are a few ways to recharge yourself. E．Doing exercise can help your body reduce stress. F．Joy can make us cheerful.

Their students play games on mobile phones after returning home, and some of them don’t complete homework. When they’re in class, they still think about their games. Pan Jiani, 11, likes watching funny short videos on the phone. Her parents are working in the city. Now she lives with her grandparents. “If she stays with us, the time of playing on her mobile phone can be limited. If we’re not around, she sometimes plays for a long time,” said her grandpa. According to the teachers, boys prefer to play games. Pan Longye, 11, likes watching cartoons and playing games on the phone. His mother said, “Sometimes I give the mobile phone to him, and then I’m so busy that I forget it. In this situation, he plays for two or three hours.” Research shows that when it comes to playing on mobile phones, the city children can be controlled by their parents, while the village children can hardly be controlled by their grandparents. How can families and society help solve this problem? Since most left-behind children (留守儿童) live with their grandparents, it’s necessary for the elderly people to organize activities for children after school, like doing some housework and farm work. The Internet should also provide left-behind children with interesting learning resources, which can draw their attention and help them avoid harmful information online. 30．What bad influence does mobile phone addiction have on the students’ studies? 31．What can the elderly people do to help deal with the problem? 32．What is the main purpose of providing online learning resources to left-behind children? 33．As a teenager, how can you use mobile phones wisely? 30． They can’t finish homework or focus in class. 31． They can organize activities for children after school. 32． To draw children’s attention and help them avoid harmful information. 33．I can use mobile phones for learning and set time limits to avoid overuse. 综合填空 I first watched the movie Forrest Gump (阿甘正传) at the age of ten.
