The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking. But he’s nervous. “I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…” Chris trips on the “-ld,” a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher, Thomas Whaley, is next to him, whispering support. “…Vote for …me …” Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion, Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him. A son of immigrants, Chris started learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls (回想起) how at the beginning of the year, when called upon to read, Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom. Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley explains, “especially for a student who is learning English as their new language, to feel confident enough to say, ‘I don’t know, but I want to know.’” Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast (夸耀) about themselves. “Boasting about yourself, and your best qualities,” Whaley says, “is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.” 4．What made Chris nervous? A．Telling a story. B．Making a speech. C．Taking a test. D．Answering a question. 5．What does the underlined word “stumbles” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．Improper pauses. B．Bad manners. C．Spelling mistakes. D．Silly jokes. 6．We can infer that the purpose of Whaley’s project is to _________. A．help students see their own strengths B．assess students’ public speaking skills C．prepare students for their future jobs D．inspire students’ love for politics 7．Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher? A．Humorous. B．Ambitious. C．Caring. D．Demanding. C（2025成都三模） Some middle school students in Anne Arundel County are trying to solve a problem for one of their peers who uses a wheelchair. By doing so, they won a major award for their school, and it has qualified them for a nationwide competition. Southern Middle School students and their science teacher, Jenna Borman, are working on a prototype desk that they hope to attach to the wheelchair of their classmate, Kenneth, who has a special disease and uses a laptop as his primary means of communication. “At present, the iPad is in a pretty heavy case and has a strap (带子) that goes around his neck and a handle on the back of it for him to hold. When he's seated, it kind of just lays in his lap. It's not very easy for him to use,” Borman said. “Kenneth always has to hold his iPad, and so this project is going to help him just set it there so his hands are free, ” said Julia Baker to the social media, a student of this school. What started off as an engineering after-school program has turned into an award-winning idea. The students recently won a statewide Science Technology Engineering Math (STEM) competition called “Solve for Tomorrow”, which came with $12, 000 worth of technology for the school. “We thought it was just an idea for Kenny, and then we won. So, it was like, wow, ”said Avery Willet excitedly. “This whole project is really teaching us about how to work together and how we can help other people and not just us, ” added Everleigh Finnelle. “I learned how to work with others and a lot of teamwork so that we could make this project the best it could be, ” said Haley Brown. “There is still room for improvement. Our team is working on the prototype, making adjustments so it works perfectly for Kenny. We're really most looking forward to seeing him using it and all of our work into it, ” Finnelle said. The final design is not due for the national competition until next month. 8．Why did the students come up with the idea of the prototype desk? A．To test what they've learnt in school. B．To join a national technology contest. C．To support a classmate's special need. D．To complete a group engineering project. 9．How did the students find their winning of the STEM award? A．Satisfying. B．Surprising. C．Comforting. D．Convincing. 10．What is Finnelle’s attitude to the future of the prototype desk? A．Hopeful. B．Doubtful. C．Objective. D．Cautious. 11．What is the main idea of this text? A．A competition is gaining popularity. B．A team won an award with a special design. C．A new invention will come onto the market. D．A program fuels students’ passion for science. D High school, for most teenagers, is a space where new adventures and challenges begin. I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school. I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was mathematics, which happened to be my weakest subject. I felt a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my maths teacher, Mr Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together.

First of all, uniforms help the school look smart. The students feel that they belong to a particular group. When every pupil in the school wears the uniform, nobody 36 (have) to worry about fashion(时尚). Everybody wears 37 same style of clothes. Uniforms can be useful in unexpected ways. A school in Ireland has introduced an interesting new uniform. On the edge of the jacket, there is a piece of cloth 38 gives off light in the dark. When the children are walking or 39 (cycle) to school on dark mornings, car drivers can 40 (easy) see them. But can uniforms help improve school standards? The answer 41 this question is not clear. One study in America found that students’ grades 42 (improve) a little after the school introduced uniforms. But some students didn’t want 43 (wear) the uniform. Other American studies showed no 44 (connect) between uniforms and school performance. School uniforms are 45 (tradition) in Britain, but some schools are starting to get rid of them.

Pupils at about 90 percent of British secondary schools wear uniforms. 第三部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文（15分） 46.你的外教来信请你为他在美国的学生拍摄一条短视频，介绍你的校园生活（学习生活、文娱生活等）。请你写一封回信，内容包括：1. 告知你计划的短视频的内容；2. 征求对方意见。 第二节 读后续写（25分） 47.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I live in an old two-story home in Newark. My neighbors are mostly retired people with perfect yards. One of the retirees,Joe Perez,lives on the corner.Because of our time together last summer, he and I have built a special relationship. At the start of the summer,Joe and I didn't hit it off too well.He was very picky about his yard. Every morning he was doing something to make the lawn look better. If we played around and stepped on the grass, Joe would yell at us from his front porch （门廊）。 Through mid-July his yard was perfect, but then I noticed some changes. I didn't see Joe outside as much. His grass was getting brown and untidy, and some weeds were growing in his flower beds. It wasn't like Joe to let things go. I didn't think much about it, but when I walked by his place,I wondered why he wasn't taking care of his yard. One day I was sitting on the curb waiting for one of my friends to show up when Joe came out on the porch. I expected him to yell at me for sitting on his grass. Instead, he swayed back and forth.Then he fell down! I ran to my house and dialed 911. “My neighbor,Mr Perez,just passed out! He lives on the corner of Garden and Mills," I blurted. Then I hurried back to the porch to see what I could do. Joe was awake, but he was as white as a ghost.He stared blankly at me. “W-What happened to me?"he mumbled. “You passed out, Mr Perez,” I said, trying to catch my breath. “But help is on its way," The paramedics came and took Joe to the emergency room. It turned out that Joe had been forgetting to take his blood pressure medication. A doctor gave Joe some medicine and examined him carefully. Paragraph 1: Then Joe was allowed to go home. Paragraph 2: Joe found lots of things I could do. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
