Do you often listen to music at loud volumes (音量)? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing. Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss (听力丧失) ,because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB (分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ear. Most of us are bon with about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears. These cells notice sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss. Once this happens, it's hard to get your hearing back.
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you alight feel uncomfortable
The "safe level" for most sound is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is about equal to (相当于) the noise of a subway.
Here is some advice on safe listening. Over-the-ear headphones (头戴式耳机) are better than in-ear ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume. Don't listen to loud music on your headphones for a long time. Follow the 60:60 rule: listen to music at 60 percent of your headphones' maximum volume for no more than 60 minutes a day.
根据短文内容,判断下列句子正误。正确的用“A”表示,不正确的用“B”表示。
26. It is safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 100 dB for 15 minutes
27. Listening to loud noise for a long time can cause some hair cells in the inner ear to die.
28. From the fourth paragraph, we know people don't always realize how loud their music is.
29. In-ear headphones are better than over-the-eat ones because they can stop more outside noise.
30. This article mainly tells us why ears are an important part of our bodies.
(C)
Have you ever wondered what else you can do on the train besides sleeping or scrolling through your phone (刷手机)? Actually, in China, trains have turned into centres which bring together the public and the nation’s Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH非物质文化遗产).
Trains go across China and they are becoming good places for introducing local traditional culture. A good example is the K5041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province. On the ICH train, Gulayier, dressed in traditional clothes, sang Orogen (鄂伦春族) folk songs and his partner played the Orogen jaw harp (口弦琴), a musical instrument. Tourists on the train, especially those from southern China, sang and danced excitedly with the two performers together. Gulayier said the train made it easier to hold tourists’ attention to his shows.
More ICH such as Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows (木偶戏), and tea-picking operas in Guangxi have also made appearances on high-speed trains across China. It offers passengers a close-up way to experience traditional culture.
Professor Xiao Fang from Beijing Normal University shares Gulayier’s opinion on the new use of ICH trains. He has pointed out another advantage of this. It also offers help for tourism. When passengers enjoy local traditions on board, they often develop a deeper interest in learning about the places they pass through.
However, the ICH train journeys still have challenges, including the narrow space on trains and passengers getting on and off at each station. Therefore, some solutions are coming up: cultural corners show traditional arts, and QR codes (二维码) connect to more information. These help passengers to experience ICH in their own ways and continue learning after their journey ends.
The success of ICH trains offers valuable lessons for cultural protection worldwide, showing that creativity and tradition can work together to keep cultural heritage alive for future generations.
31. What do we know about the K5041 train from the passage?
A. It runs from southern China to Heilongjiang Province.
B. Gulayier performed Orogen folk songs on this train.
C. It only carries tourists who are interested in ICH.
32. The underlined phrase “made appearances” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_______”.
A. showed up B. took off C. passed by
33. What is another advantage of ICH trains mentioned by Professor Xiao Fang?
A. They help reduce the number of passengers on trains.
B. They make trains more comfortable for travelers.
C. They provide support for the tourism industry.
34. What challenge do ICH train journeys face?
A. Tourists are not interested in traditional culture.
B. There is not enough space on the trains.
C. Performers refuse to work on trains.
35. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. ICH trains have solved all their challenges.
B. ICH trains are popular only in China.
C. ICH trains set a good example for Chinese cultural protection.
(D)
As middle school students, we often imagine our future. Will we invent things, help others, or create art? Thinking about the future guides our present efforts.
Many students feel unsure about their future at first—and that’s normal. ____36____ For example, loving robot games might lead you to engineering, enjoying story-writing could point to a writing career. Trying new things connects hobbies to future roads.
____37____ Ask a veterinarian (兽医) how he helps animals, or interview a local artist. These conversations help you understand a job’s real work, not just its surface. Their stories show how to turn passion (热情) into work, and they may share tips for now.
Setting goals doesn’t mean big plans. ____38____ If you want to be a teacher, teach a younger student. If you like space, read one astronomy book a month. Small steps make dreams achievable.
The world changes, and new jobs will appear. ____39____ Learning a language, trying coding (编程), or joining debate club builds useful skills for any future job. Being open to learning prepares you for opportunities.
It’s okay if your future ideas change—you might love medicine one year, then environmental science the next. ____40____ What matters is exploring (探索), asking questions, and doing your best today to build an exciting future.
根据语篇内容,从所给的选项中选择一个能填入空白处的最佳选项,使短文意思通顺。选项中有一项为多余项。
A. Talking to people in different jobs also helps.
B. Stay curious and keep trying new things, even without a clear plan yet.
C. Start with small daily goals that match your interests.
D. The only way to find what you love is to try different things——join a club, take a new class.
E. You don’t need to know your future job, just focus on skills useful for many jobs.
F. Pick one job and stick to it, even if you lose interest later.

reused, when, pollution, matters, everyone, turning, us, educate, difference, cloth
Protecting the environment is a task that ____41____ should take part in, as it influences the health of our planet and future generations. Even small, daily actions can add up to make a big ____42____ in reducing pollution and saving natural resources.
First, we can cut down on plastic use. Instead of using single-use plastic bags, we can carry reusable ____43____ bags when shopping. Instead of buying plastic water bottles, we can use stainless steel (不锈钢) bottles that can be ____44____ many times. This not only reduces the plastic waste but also lowers the energy used to produce new plastic products.
Second, we can save energy at home and school. ____45____ off lights, computers, and other electronics ____46____ they’re not in use, using LED bulbs (which use less energy than traditional ones), and keeping the air conditioner at a moderate temperature are all easy ways to reduce energy waste.
Third, we can support green transportation. Walking or riding a bike for short trips, taking public transport like buses or subways instead of cars can cut down the number of cars on the road. Fewer cars mean less air ____47____ and less traffic, making our cities cleaner and healthier.
Fourth, we can take part in environmental activities. Many communities organize tree-planting days, park clean-ups, or recycling drives. Participating in these activities not only helps the environment directly but also lets ____48____ meet other people who care about the same cause, making us feel part of a larger effort.
It’s also important to ____49____ others about environmental problems. We can talk to our family and friends about simple ways to protect the environment, make posters for our school hallway, or write articles for the school newspaper. The more people know about the importance of protecting the planet, the more likely they are to take action.
Even if we face difficulties—like forgetting our reusable bags or not having time to join a clean-up—we shouldn’t give up. Every small effort ____50____ , and over time, these efforts will help create a greener, more sustainable world for everyone.

The Arctic (北极) is the northernmost place in the world. It is one of the world’s coldest places in winter. It is difficult for most animals to live there. But a few animals have their ways of living in the cold world.
Arctic foxes are one of those animals. Arctic foxes have thick white fur (厚毛皮) in the winter months. The thick fur helps them to stand the cold in winter. Their long tails are also very thick. When Arctic foxes sleep, they will put their tails around their bodies to stay warm. And their white fur makes it difficult for other animals to find them in the snow world. There is an interesting fact that Arctic foxes’ fur is not always white. When the weather gets warmer, Arctic foxes have less need to stay warm and keep away from dangers than they do in winter. So, in the summer their thick white fur gets thinner and becomes brown.
To get through the winter months, Arctic foxes need to eat a lot of food. They have very sensitive (灵敏的) ears and noses. These help them to find small animals under the snow easily. However, things are terrible sometimes. If Arctic foxes can’t find enough food or the weather is very terrible, they can slow down their metabolism (新陈代谢) and stay in their snow homes for up to two weeks.
根据短文内容回答问题。
51. What’s the weather like in the Arctic in winter?
____________________________________________________________________________________
52. What plays an important role in helping Arctic foxes to get through the winter?
____________________________________________________________________________________
53. What helps Arctic foxes a lot in finding enough food in the winter months?
____________________________________________________________________________________
54. Is Arctic foxes’ fur always white?
____________________________________________________________________________________
55. How long can Arctic foxes stay in their snow homes?
____________________________________________________________________________________
(C)
It’s important to develop healthy habits in your daily life. The following ways will help you become healthier and keep perfect shape.
Eat properly. A healthy diet is very important for everybody. Breakfast is the most important in a day. Doctors suggest that students’ breakfast should include fruit, eggs, milk, rice or noodles, because these can offer them necessary energy, help them listen carefully in class and keep them healthy. Eat enough for lunch and little for supper. But remember too much sugar is bad for your teeth and blood.
Keep off germs (病菌). Daily tooth cleaning reduces the amount (数量) of germs which will spread illnesses. Germs in the mouth are likely to enter the blood and cause illnesses, even heart problems. Even if you are not sick, always remember to cough or sneeze (喷嚏) into your arms instead of your hands because hands can spread germs to others when you touch something else. Besides, washing hands is necessary after going to the toilet or before having a meal.
Exercise regularly (有规律地). Regular exercise can improve your moods (情绪). What’s more, it’s good for bones. There are many forms of exercise: walking, running, playing ball games or swimming. You can choose your favorite to practice regularly. You will not only feel energetic but also think better after doing exercise.
Stay connected. Communicating with friends at times is the key to reducing stress. And sharing happiness and sadness, exchanging information with others can also help improve memory. Having a friend and a circle of friends can help you feel good.
根据短文内容完成句子,每空一词。

I hope it can inspire more of us to join.
