The 13-year-old Huck tells us about how he gets out of the control of his father who always drinks a lot, his friendship with Jim and their adventures (冒险) on the Mississippi as they journey south. The Nobel Prize-winning writer Hemingway even said that “all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huck Finn... There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.” Maikafer, flieg! is a novel written in German. The storyteller in this book is a 9-year old girl Christine who lives in Vienna (维也纳) at the end of World War Ⅱ. The world in a kid’s eyes is sometimes kind of different from that in adults’ eyes. You may know more details about people’s daily life at that time by going on a journey with Christine and listening to the voice deep in her heart. “Sometimes it makes you laugh, but sometimes it makes you become silent,” said one reader. Alice in Wonderland is an English novel by Lewis Carroll, a math teacher at Oxford University. It details the story of a young girl who falls through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world. The characters, structure, the crazy imagination, and the way the writer tells the story all make big differences to popular culture and literature. Unlike other literature works for children at that time, the book doesn’t want to teach or educate kids. It shows that kids can read literature just for fun. Oliver Twist is the second novel of the English writer Charles Dickens and one of his most popular works. The story is mainly about a boy with no parents who runs away from the workhouse (济贫院) to London and his life in the capital city. Although the main character in this book is a boy, it’s not a children’s book. The book calls people’s attention to different problems in London at that time, including the poor conditions in the workhouses, asking children to work and recruiting (招募) children as criminals. 21．The four books are written in ________ languages. A．two B．three C．four D．five 22．What can you NOT know about Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from this passage? A．What the story is mainly about. B．When the story in this book happens. C．Why the book is important in America. D．How old Huckleberry Finn is. 23．If you want to read a book full of imagination, you can choose ________. A．Maikafer, flieg! B．Alice in Wonderland C．Oliver Twist D．Adventures of Huckleberry Finn 24．Maikafer, flieg! shows us ________. A．people have a hard time during World War Ⅱ B．Christine travels around Europe at the end of World War II C．How brave Christine is during World War Ⅱ D．Christine’s opinion on her experiences during World War II 25．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A．The main characters in the four books are children and they are fit for kids to read. B．Children can read Alice in Wonderland for fun. C．A good book might make people happy and also make them think. D．All the four books have deep meaning. B Poyang Lake, located in northern Jiangxi Province, is the largest freshwater lake in China. It’s also the second largest lake in the country, second only to Qinghai Lake. Long ago, during the Tang Dynasty, the lake was at its biggest, covering about 6,000 square kilometres. Today, it is just around 3,150 square kilometres. The size of Poyang Lake also changes a lot throughout the year. In summer, it is like a huge inland sea. By winter, it almost disappears. Because of the natural cycle (周期), the lake is home to many animals. The Yangtze finless porpoise (长江江豚), an endangered freshwater animal, lives in the water. Also, hundreds of birds spend the winter in its wetlands every year. However, the wet areas are getting smaller. This makes it hard for animals living there to survive. Luckily, local people are taking action to meet the challenge. The story of Yuan Wenbin is a great example. Yuan used to fish in Poyang Lake for a living. When he noticed that the Yangtze finless porpoises were disappearing, he was worried. He stopped full-time fishing and asked his neighbours to protect the animals together. However, they didn’t take it seriously at first. “For a long time, I felt like I was the only one who cared,” Yuan said. He wasn’t sure if his work would make a difference. However, he didn’t give up. Day by day, Yuan’s actions inspired more community members. They started joining him to watch over the lake in 2017. Now, Poyang Lake is becoming more friendly to wildlife. Many visitors come to visit it. “I just hope our hard work can encourage more people to protect the lake we depend on,” Yuan said. 26．What do we know about Poyang Lake? A．It is larger than Qinghai Lake. B．It is the deepest lake in China. C．It gets much smaller in winter. D．It becomes bigger than before. 27．Which of the following does paragraph 3 answer? A．Why are the wet areas getting smaller? B．What do Yangtze finless porpoises look like? C．What makes it hard for the animals there to survive? D．How do local people protect the endangered animals? 28．How did Yuan feel about protecting the animals at first? A．Happy and excited. B．Alone and uncertain. C．Shocked and angry. D．Confident and hopeful. 29．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph? A．The condition of Poyang Lake is improving. B．Few visitors come to Poyang Lake these days. C．Yuan thinks their hard work is useless for the lake. D．All the visitors will help protect the lake and animals. 30．What is the passage mainly about? A．Great changes of Poyang Lake B．Freshwater animals in Poyang Lake C．The two most famous lakes in northern China D．The challenges and protection of Poyang Lake C Every week, a group of students from Cherry Creek High School come to help old people with anything technology-related (技术相关的) at an old people’s home. The volunteers are from a group called Generation Technology, and it was set up by students a few years ago. When the holidays come, the group helps the old keep connected (保持联系) with their loved ones. “A lot of people don’t live close to their family, and it’s a big problem that we should pay attention to. So setting up video communication and then bringing people closer during the holidays is meaningful,” said Sunker, the leader of the group. The students also give the old advice on preventing scams (预防诈骗). People often get strange calls that they can’t recognize (识别) and the students can give them some useful advice. It’s something that the old like Sandy Washington are thankful for. “I do have difficulty using modern technology,” Sandy Washington said. “And I think a lot of other old people here do too, you know, at our age.” Whether the students are helping with video communication or teaching the old to use new apps on their phones, they’re both about helping form strong intergenerational (代与代之间的) connections. For Sandy Washington, seeing the students every week is something she looks forward to. “We really welcome these kids,” she said. “I want to hear about their college interests and preferred schools. I feel they’re family, just like my own kids or grandkids. It’s very nice.” 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 31．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A．The group. B．The phone. C．The app. D．The technology. 32．Why do the students help the old keep connected with their loved ones? A．Because it helps the old to prevent scams. B．Because it’s easy for old people to do it. C．Because it helps the students get into a good college. D．Because a lot of old people don’t live close to their family. 33．What does Sunker think of helping the old set up video communication during the holidays? A．It’s relaxing. B．It’s difficult. C．It’s meaningful. D．It’s strange. 34．How do the students help the old prevent scams? A．By giving them calls every week. B．By teaching them to use some new apps. C．By giving them some useful advice. D．By asking their family members to help the old. 35．What can be the best title for the passage? A．Modern Technology B．A Meaningful Volunteer Activity C．New Apps on the Phones D．A Group for College Students D The Popularity of Traditional Chinese Medicine Around the World    Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a long history of over 2,000 years. It is an important part of Chinese culture. In recent years, TCM has become more and more popular around the world. People from different countries are showing great interest in TCM, such as acupuncture (针灸), cupping (拔火罐) and herbal medicine (草药).     One of the reasons for TCM’s popularity is its effectiveness in treating some diseases. For example, acupuncture is often used to treat pain, insomnia (失眠) and stress. Many people who have tried acupuncture say it works well. Cupping, another traditional therapy (疗法), is used to improve blood circulation (血液循环) and relieve muscle pain. During the 2016 Rio Olympics, the American swimmer Michael Phelps was seen with purple cupping marks on his body, which made cupping famous all over the world.     Another reason is that TCM pays attention to the balance of the human body. TCM believes that the human body is a whole, and illness is caused by the imbalance of yin and yang (阴阳). TCM doctors treat patients by adjusting this balance. They may use herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage or other therapies. Unlike Western medicine, which often focuses on treating specific symptoms (症状), TCM focuses on the overall health of the patient.     In addition, TCM is becoming more accepted because of the increasing exchange between China and other countries. Many TCM colleges and hospitals have been set up around the world. For example, in Australia, there are many TCM clinics (诊所) that provide acupuncture and herbal medicine services. In the United States, some universities offer courses on TCM. More and more people are learning about TCM and recognizing its value.     However, TCM still faces some challenges. One of the biggest challenges is the lack of international standards (标准) for TCM products and therapies. This makes it difficult for TCM to be widely accepted in some countries. Another challenge is the shortage of qualified TCM doctors. To solve these problems, China has been working hard to promote the standardization (标准化) of TCM and train more TCM professionals.     Despite the challenges, TCM has a bright future. As people pay more attention to natural and healthy ways of treating diseases, TCM will continue to spread around the world and make greater contributions to human health. 36．How long is the history of TCM? A．Over 1,000 years. B．Over 2,000 years. C．Over 3,000 years. D．Over 4,000 years. 37．Which of the following is NOT a TCM therapy mentioned in the passage? A．Acupuncture. B．Cupping. C．Herbal medicine. D．Surgery. 38．Why did cupping become famous all over the world? A．Because it is very effective in treating many diseases. B．Because it is a traditional therapy with a long history. C．Because Michael Phelps was seen with cupping marks during the 2016 Rio Olympics. D．Because it is widely used in Western countries. 39．What is the difference between TCM and Western medicine? A．TCM focuses on treating specific symptoms. B．Western medicine focuses on the overall health of the patient. C．TCM pays attention to the balance of the human body. D．Western medicine uses herbal medicine to treat patients. 40．What is one of the challenges TCM faces? A．The high cost of TCM products. B．The lack of international standards for TCM products and therapies. C．The difficulty in learning TCM. D．The lack of TCM clinics around the world. 根据短文内容，将下面的选项还原到文中空白处，使短文内容完整、通顺，每个选项只能用一次，其中有一个选项是多余的。 Crying is sometimes good for both your body and mind. 41 It also helps keep your eyes clean. Crying is like giving your eyes a good wash from the inside. Moreover, it can help you sleep better. 42 When you are happy, you may not often think of crying. But have you ever heard of “happy crying”? You might have experienced it before. Scientists have found out happy crying may happen in the following situations: 43 When you have some bad feelings that haven’t been noticed for a long time, and they can’t be expressed easily, happy crying happens. That is to say, even when you experience something happy, the bad feelings that haven’t been noticed or dealt with will still make you cry. When you are unable to keep yourself in good condition. Crying can help you manage strong moods or feelings. Some happy moments can also bring you strong feelings and you may find it hard to control them. 44 When you cry, it feels like you are driving some bad or terrible feelings away from your body. Besides, the hormones (激素) in tears can help to keep a balance between body and mood. 45 This helps people face difficulties in life more actively. A．At this time, crying can be helpful. B．It is a good way to make you feel less stressed and cheer you up. C．When you have feelings that can’t be expressed. D．Crying is usually connected with feelings like anger or sadness.

Actually, dogs are much more than that! There are many secrets about them. Let’s take a closer look into the world of dogs and learn more about them. Dogs are famous for their great senses. With over 100 million scent cells (嗅觉细胞), dogs can smell thousands of scents. And they can hear sounds from farther away than humans because of their special ear shape. These abilities make dogs important in many places. For example, in places like train stations and airports, police dogs can find out dangerous things like drugs and bombs. And for blind people, guide dogs are very helpful. They can help them “see” and travel around safely. Just like humans, most dogs have a favourite paw. They might be right-pawed or left-pawed. To figure out which paw your dog prefers, you can watch it walk and see which paw it usually puts forward first. Dogs not only walk on paws, but also sweat through them. Because of this, their paws are easy to get dirty with bacteria (细菌), and sometimes they even give off a popcorn-like smell. Dogs have many ways to communicate. One way they do this is by smelling each other’s butts (屁股). The special smell can help dogs learn about others’ gender ♀♂, feelings, and health. Dogs also use body language to “show” their feelings. For example, they may turn in circles to say hello or hold their tails between their legs when they are afraid or sad. Facts about dogs Great senses◆Smelling: They can smell thousands of scents. ◆ 81 : They have special ear shapes.
