The two alternatives fully evaluated, I prefer “Fun at my school” as a valuable addition to our newspaper. My reasons are as follows. Firstly, “Fun at my school” highlights daily campus life and serves as a showcase of studentsˈ shining moments, capturing unique stories within the campus. Secondly, it allows diverse contributions—from event reports to photo stories—making the newspaper more interactive and inclusive. Lastly, it provides a platform where students are free to share their personalities, thus fostering understanding and communication among classmates. In conclusion, this column not only enriches content but also promotes student engagement. I hope my suggestion will be considered. Yours, Li Hua 67. One day, Emily handed me an application form. I froze, my eyes wide as I stared at the official entry for the body-building show. Fear and doubt surged. Emilyˈs calm eyes met mine, and she said softly, “Youˈve earned this.” Those words, combined with every early morning, every sweaty workout, every disciplined meal, whispered a quiet truth: I was stronger than I had believed. My trembling hands steadied, and my heart pounded with a new kind of courage. With a deep breath, I signed my name, aware that this act was less about the competition and more about honoring the transformation I had fought for. Soon, I jumped into weeks of preparation. Waking before dawn, I entered the quiet gym, where only the clatter of weights and Emilyˈs guiding voice filled the space. I pushed past exhaustion, feeling the burn in my muscles as a sign of growth. Emily corrected my rigid form, timed my breaks, and celebrated every small victory, reminding me that transformation came gradually, step by step. On competition day, standing on stage after months of sweat and discipline, I felt a surge of pride: Strength was not just physical, but also perseverance and courage. 听力原文： 1. 听力原文： M: I really wish Mike would take more interest in our business. I really donˈt know why he wants to be a writer. I wonder whether he can survive on the money heˈd earn. W: We should respect his dream. And his teacher says he really has the talent. 2. 听力原文： W: Look at the sweater. M: Whatˈs wrong with it? W: I just washed it but the water was too hot. And now this is so small that your toy bear cannot wear it. In addition, the colour faded. 3. 听力原文： W: What are you going to do this summer vacation, Jack? M: I plan to do a part-time job. You know, I am already a college student and I should live on my own. What about you? W: Iˈd like to take a swimming course. 4. 听力原文： W: How was your trip to Africa? M: Excellent. I really had a good time. W: Did you have any culture shock? M: Not really. I wasnˈt there long enough for that. But it was too hot there. 5. 听力原文： M: Laura, do you think the kids remember the meaning of this national holiday? W: Only if they watch the president talk about it on TV. Anyway, with all the picnics and the beautiful fireworks, Iˈm sure most people have a good time. 6~7.  听力原文： W: Jim, weˈre going to see an art exhibition. Do you want to come? M: The View, right? W: Yeah, as usual, The View will be the biggest contemporary art event of the summer -- not in terms of the number of artworks on display, but in the variety of art on show. M: Thatˈs right. Everything from landscape to abstract and mostly, young artists are just beginning to make a name for themselves. W: There are one or two big names whose masterpieces are displayed here.

I wrote about honeybee habitats. W: What can you tell me about honeybees? M: They live in beehives. Huge groups of honeybees make the hives in caves or old trees. W: Thatˈs interesting.

We picked three songs from Time magazine's Top 10 Best Songs of 2020.     People I've Been Sad     "If you fall apart, then I'm falling behind you/You know the feeling/You know the feeling." These words were written by Heloise Letissier as she grieved the death of her mother. A lot of people resonated with (和...产生共鸣) the lyrics in this troubling year. "It's a principle of acceptance of common suffering and of making peace with tragedy—and her open voice makes it nearly impossible not to hum along." Time wrote.     WAP     WAP is a hip-hop song by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion. It was Cardi B's fourth No.1 hit on Billboard's Hot 100 in the Us.     "As a track, WAP is simple yet effective: a juicy bassline (低音声线) of Cardi and Megan trading verses (歌曲的段落), with barely a break to catch a breath. It is infectious." Time wrote.     Think About Things     This Icelandic pop song became popular on social media after a special quarantine (隔离) dance challenge set to the song spread rapidly.     "The song showcases parental love with a modern twist, making the song instantly palatable and attractive regardless of the song's meaning." Maggie McHale wrote on At Wood Magazine. 21.When did Heloise Letissier write the lyrics of People I've Been Sad? A. After her mother's death. B. Before the troubling year 2020. C. During the period of her quarantine. D. When accepting the common suffering. 22.What makes the song Think About Things attractive? A. The speed of spreading. B. A special dance challenge. C. The parental love it shows. D. The meaning of the song. 23.What is the similarity among the three songs? A. They are all hip-hop. B. They can cheer us up. C. They are all from Time. D. They all show sad feelings. B     I grew up in a poor family with a single mom addicted to drugs. Often there was no money for food, and I was always hungry.     On my fifth birthday, some close family members were invited to go to a park to celebrate my birthday. No cake. No presents. Except for my auntie, she had an envelope in her hand.     Before everyone sang Happy Birthday, I saw a little boy, probably my age, and a woman, digging in the park dustbin for food. I begged my mom to invite them to my party but my mother was not a fan of strangers. She said no.     I was attracted by them. I didn't know others struggled like me, and it hurt my heart. I watched them as everyone sang. I watched them when my auntie handed me the envelope. I watched them as I opened it until I saw the contents, a one hundred-dollar bill. My mother was enraged because my auntie gave me such a large amount of money. Maybe she thought my auntie trusted me more than her with cash.     We were poor. I didn't eat 3 days a week and I had a very hard childhood. But I had never dug in a dustbin for food.     My auntie kept talking it over with my mother. Finally, she told me I could do anything I wanted with that money. So I did. I walked to the boy and his mother. I explained to the boy that it was my birthday and my present was $100, and I wanted to give it to them. There were so many tears and thanks.     I, and my auntie, understood how powerful it was to give the only money I'd ever seen away. My mother never did. I paid dearly for the action that night. But it was worth it.     I think about that boy and his mother often. 24.Why did the author's mother refuse to invite the boy and the mother to the party? A. She thought they were too dirty. B. She didn't like staying with strangers. C. She thought it was a waste of money. D. She didn't prepare enough food for them. 25.Why did the author always observe the boy and his mother? A. He failed to join in his family's talking. B. He was curious about what they were doing. C. He was touched seeing them struggling like him. D. He was sad because his mom refused his invitation. 26.What does the underlined word "enraged" in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Admired. B. Delighted. C. Frightened. D. Annoyed. 27.What can we infer from the author's behavior? A. It was worthless to pay such a high price. B. All his family supported his behavior. C. His kindness was more important than money. D. He had a deep effect on the boy and his mother. C     Heavy smoke. Burned-down houses. Burnt land. These were a common sight in Australia because of bush fires that lasted from September 2019 to March 2020. Around 1.25 billion animals died in the fires, Vox reported. Since last September, at least 109,265 square kilometers of land have burned in Australia in one of the country's worst fire seasons on record. That's an area larger than Portugal. The fires killed at least 29 people and destroyed some 2,500 homes.     Like millions of others around the world, 18-year-old Rachel Ratelle from the US saw news of the fires. She felt down as she watched an injured koala trying to climb a tree to safety. She cried for a long time that night.     But unlike many people, she decided to do something about it. She researched wildlife rescue(救援) organizations in Australia to find out what they needed most. Many groups were asking for hand-sewn pouches(手工缝制的育儿袋) for animals like koalas and kangaroos that lost their homes and parents in the foes. Ratelle wanted to provide these things, but there was just one problem. "I'd never sewn in my life," Ratelle said. "Giving money seemed like something too simple. I wanted to directly help these animals by doing something myself, so I decided to learn how to sew."     Over the next month, Ratelle bought her own sewing machine and taught herself how to sew by watching online videos. She sewed 25 pouches of different sizes and sent them to wildlife rescue organizations in Australia. A week later, she received a photo from an organization with a baby kangaroo in one of her pouches. She said it was a great feeling.     "I did what I am supposed to do, and it showed how a simple act of kindness can go a long way," Ratelle said. "I plan to use my new sewing skills to help animals and people who have suffered from natural disasters(自然灾害)." 28.What can we learn about the bush fires in Australia? A. Portugal was influenced by them. B. They lasted many years. C. Their influence was very serious. D. Many animals died out because of them. 29.Why did Ratelle choose to sew pouches for animals? A. Because she knew how to sew. B. Because she wanted to offer direct help. C. Because she has always wanted to learn how to sew. D. Because very few people donated hand-sewn pouches. 30.From the story, we know that Ratelle ______. A. will keep sewing to help others B. did nothing to help actually C. wants more people to learn how to sew D. was sad that she could not help more animals 31.Which of the following can be the best title of the text? A. Why Is Sewing So Popular? B. Different Opinions on Wildlife C. How Do Fires Influence Our Lives? D. Small Acts Can Help in a Huge Way D We are living in a streaming paradox（悖论）. As both an entertainment business model and a consumer experience, streaming has become a victim of its own success. It is a pattern shift that is beloved for giving us more choices than ever before, while also making it harder than ever to actually enjoy that abundance. At first, streaming felt revolutionary and attractive. For a while, a certain platform, like any good tech product, simply worked—on your laptop, your phone, even a strangerˈs TV. Soon after, platforms and studios entered expensive bidding wars over new titles and funded more shows and movies than ever before in attempts to acquire new sign-ups. Executives felt they had no choice but to adapt to the on-demand subscription model, while confessing that the business of streaming seemed shaky. Now we are living through the contraction（缩减）. The simple truth is that it is incredibly expensive to produce and distribute content at a large scale and without a head start. Streaming platforms are dealing with subscription fatigue: Only so many people are willing to pay for so many platforms. Although the streaming arms race has unlocked more studio back catalogs and resulted in more original content, actually accessing all the options means shelling out more money. Cut-throat studios may behave as if streaming is a zero-sum game, but for most consumers, itˈs not. Multiple acquaintances of mine have been reduced to once-unthinkable practices, like keeping spreadsheets to track how much money theyˈre spending on all their different streaming subscriptions. For the studios, writers, and actors themselves, the streaming model is taking away the money that creative people used to make off reruns, among other things. Itˈs possible that the promise of streaming—and the instability it introduced—may hold back the entire film and TV industry for years to come. In the long run itˈs entirely possible that the model is unprofitable. What is left is a feeling of being presented with limitless choice while also experiencing a vague sense of loss. A fundamental experience of being alive on the internet in 2024 is getting everything you asked for and realizing that the end product is not what it seems. 32.How did streaming appeal to users at first? A. By replacing TVs. B. By acquiring sign-ups. C. By offering rich choices. D. By winning subscription models. 33.What does the underlined word “fatigue” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Users are tired of too many shows. B. Platforms are worried about their cost. C. Platforms are fed up with the arms race. D. Users are unwilling to pay for the platforms. 34.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The impact of streaming. B. The challenge of studios. C. The complaint of viewers. D. The confusion of consumers. 35.What is the authorˈs attitude toward the future of streaming? A. Dismissive. B. Unclear. C. Positive. D. Concerned. 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。 Ah, punctuality—the art of being precisely on time. Itˈs a concept so deeply rooted in some cultures that even being a minute late can cause a small-scale panic attack.     (36)    Letˈs examine whether punctuality is the defining feature of a superior society or merely another subjective construct. Each part of the world has a unique relationship with time, enriching the fabric of global culture. In Japan, for example, youˈre always expected to arrive on time, and preferably a few minutes early.      (37)    Tough luck, but the next one will be there precisely on the dot. In contrast, the Philippines has a more relaxed approach to time. If someone says 3 oˈclock, arriving around 3:30 is common and expected. This isnˈt laziness, but a cultural preference for living in the moment. But does being punctual make a culture more advanced? The Swiss are celebrated for their precision and punctuality, often cited as a perfect example of efficiency. Their trains run on time, and their watches are the gold standard.     (38)    And Switzerland is often ranked as one of the most developed and happiest countries in the world, but letˈs wait a bit to conclude. Consider the case of Brazil, where “Brazilian time” is a well-known concept.   (39)   If you attend a party at the specified time, youˈll likely find the host still in their bathrobe. Many Brazilians have a laid-back approach to life. They donˈt sweat the small stuff like running five minutes late because theyˈre busy enjoying life. Many live by the motto, “Tudo bem”, which means “Itˈs all good.” Honestly, they seem to be onto something. So, is punctuality essential? It depends on what cultures you are in. Whether youˈre a stickler for punctuality or more laid-back, what truly matters is how you spend your time.      (40)    Letˈs try to find the middle ground where we can respect othersˈ time while embracing the joy of living in the moment. Ultimately, time is just a construct, and life is too short to stress about being late. A．Miss a train by a minute? B．Punctuality is timeless art. C．But is punctuality essential? D．In this context, punctuality is flexible. E．You could set your clock by their daily routine. F．There, being late is not only accepted but expected. G．Are you enjoying the journey or constantly watching the clock? 36.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 37.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 38.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 39.A. A B. B C. C D.

When I was too tired to make myself dinner, Iˈd just eat the kidsˈ leftover cereal（麦片）. I thought this was a great plan to lose weight and called it the “Cereal for Diet”. Back then, I knew nothing about nutrition. Of course, the Cereal for Diet failed, as did all my other attempts. One day, after cleaning up all the mess my kids had made, I went out for a walk. I passed a gym. I looked away. Healthy people went there, but this was not me. While turning away, I saw an ad for a six-month fitness challenge. I continued my fast walk in the opposite direction, but that sign just stayed in my mind. I still remember what finally motivated me to sign up for the challenge. It was a ten-minute period in which my son threw his spaghetti plate straight up, sending noodles and sauce flying everywhere. As soon as my husband got home, I said, “Youˈre in charge.” I made a beeline for the gym, marched straight in and said, “Fix me.” And I was assigned a young and fit trainer, Emily. She asked what my goals were for the six-month challenge. At that moment, I was speechless. Noticing my embarrassment, Emily just handed me the heaviest weights I had in my life and said, “Okay, so in six months you will compete in a body-building show.” I tried explaining, “No, I donˈt want to do a show. That sounds scary.” She ignored my fear, and we jumped into strict workouts and nutrition planning. Over the next six months, Emily forced me to focus on myself—my wants and my needs. I learned to see food as strength and sweat as progress. I learned how to fuel my body instead of starving it, balancing proteins, carbs, and fats.
