These dreams can be very big, like becoming the winner of the Nobel Prize. Or they can be small—you may just want to become one of the best students in your class. For example, you want to be a reporter. But you’re not very good at some school subjects, and you don’t do well in talking with others. So it is not easy for you to become a reporter. At a moment like this, never tell yourself it’s impossible. As you know, these kinds of ideas can stop you from making your dream come true. Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that it is life’s biggest challenge to make our dreams come true. No matter what your dream is, if you find one, try to make it come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want and want to be. Then, do this step by step because a big dream is made up of many small ones. Also, you must never give up your dream. There will be many difficulties on the road to your dreams. You need to decide what is the most important. Working hard will bring you better exam results, but wasting time never will. Maybe this can make you get closer to your dream. 1．What can we know about teenagers’ dreams from Paragraph 1? A．Teenagers’ dreams are always very big.

She became well-known in a new season of the TV programme, which tells people how young people build their careers after leaving school. The programme followed 12 students who studied Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). As the youngest one, Ayi at first was unnoticed. By the end of the season, however, she surprised all with her great progress. Ayi was not from a family of doctors. Her earliest interest in traditional medicine was awakened in her old town. In that place, people believed mutton soup cured illness faster than seeing doctors in hospital. When her grandmother died of illness, she realized good doctors are needed in this place. That was when she decided to become one to serve the people there. In 2018, thanks to an education program for Xinjiang middle school students, Ayi had a chance to study in a Shenzhen high school. Three years later, she was accepted by Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine. However, the road to becoming a TCM doctor was never easy. For her, it’s especially difficult to understand ancient Chinese medical books. “Terms (术语), like yin and yang, were totally a new way of thinking. So I was always half a step behind my classmates,” Ayi said. To catch up, she put in more time and developed a study method of her own. Along with her schoolwork, Ayi got practical experience by taking part in more than 13 volunteer activities. Ayi’s greatest dream is to return to Xinjiang and use her TCM knowledge to serve local people. “Back in Kashgar, I know many people don’t look for medical care, so I believe it’s deeply meaningful to use TCM, which is simple, cheap and works well,” Ayi said. 1．Why did Ayi become famous in the TV programme? A．Because she made great progress. B．Because she learned TCM by herself. C．Because she is the youngest one. D．Because she got best scores in the school. 2．What made Ayi decide to be a doctor? A．The dream of her family. B．The medical needs in her hometown. C．The advice from her grandmother. D．The visit to the local hospital. 3．Which word can best describe Ayi? A．Honest. B．Friendly. C．Hard-working. D．Humorous. 4．What is the best title of the text? A．A Journey into TCM. B．The changes in TCM. C．A Programme About Dreams. D．The Meaning of Volunteer Work. Yang Xuan is a boy from Jiangsu Province. On the afternoon of December 3, 2025, he went to the hospital to visit his father because his father was badly ill. On his way back home, Yang saw a black bag fall from a bike. The bike rider was in a hurry and didn’t even notice the bag sliding off his seat. At first, Yang thought it was just a bag of books.

After thinking for a moment, he took the bag home. When he got home, Yang found that there was 158,000 yuan in the bag. “Mum, the man lost this money and he must be really worried. Maybe he will use the money to do something important. We should tell it to the police!” Yang said to his mother. Yang’s mother called the police right away. The police soon found the owner and gave the money back. The owner got his money back and said happily, “Thank you very much!

Every Saturday, she learns paper-cutting from Mrs Smith. She can easily cut butterflies, horses, flowers and so on. Cindy made a paper-cutting work of Xiyangyang. She felt happy to see it shown on the school wall. Every Saturday afternoon, students in Zimbabwe (津巴布韦) will follow Zhu Wei to practise Tai Chi.

The colourful puppets and the performers’ skilled finger movements seemed magical to her. “I felt really close to this art right away,” she says. However, when Wang Lin entered high school, things changed. Her classmates thought puppetry was old-fashioned and made fun of her hobby. “They said it was for old people, not for teenagers,” she recalls. Slowly, Wang Lin felt less close to puppetry and stopped practising for almost two years. Last summer, Wang Lin attended a traditional culture camp in her city. There, she met 70-year-old Master Chen, a famous puppet performer. “Puppetry is not just an art — it carries our history and stories,” Master Chen told the teenagers. “If you give it a chance, it will speak to you.” Master Chen’s words touched Wang Lin deeply. She started practising again, this time with more passion than ever. She also used social media to share videos of her performances. To her surprise, many of her classmates started showing interest. “Now they think it’s pretty cool!” she says happily. Wang Lin now leads a teenage puppet team at her school. “It’s our duty to keep this art alive,” she says. “Puppetry is not old-fashioned at all. It’s amazing, and everyone can feel close to it if they try.” 1．How did Wang Lin feel about puppetry when she first saw it at age seven? A．She thought it was boring. B．She was attracted by it. C．She felt it was old-fashioned. D．She didn’t pay attention to it. 2．Why did Wang Lin stop practising puppetry for almost two years? A．Because she was too busy with high school studies. B．Because Master Chen told her to stop. C．Because her classmates thought it was old-fashioned. D．Because she lost interest in all traditional arts. 3．What did Master Chen say about puppetry? A．It is only for old people. B．It is too difficult for teenagers. C．It carries history and stories. D．It will disappear soon. 4．How did Wang Lin make her classmates become interested in puppetry? A．She gave them money to watch shows. B．She shared performance videos on social media. C．She asked Master Chen to talk to them. D．She forced them to join her team. 5．What is the main message of this passage? A．Teenagers should not practise traditional arts. B．Shadow puppetry will disappear because it’s old. C．Young people can help keep traditional arts alive. D．Only old people can understand puppet shows. Should teenagers learn traditional arts? Some people say no because they believe teenagers should focus on school subjects. However, learning traditional arts can bring many benefits to young people. First, traditional arts help teenagers understand their cultural roots. When a teenager learns paper-cutting or shadow puppetry, he or she is not just learning a skill.  He or she is connecting with centuries of history and wisdom. This sense of belonging is important for building cultural confidence. Second, traditional arts can improve creativity. Many traditional art forms require imagination and patience. For example, making a puppet involves designing, carving and painting. These processes train the brain to think in new ways. Third, learning traditional arts teaches responsibility. When teenagers take on the duty of keeping an old art alive, they learn what it means to serve their community. Zhan Haojing once said it was her duty to keep the art alive because puppetry was in her blood. Of course, teenagers should balance their time between schoolwork and hobbies. But if they are interested in traditional arts, schools and parents should encourage them. After all, the future of these precious art forms depends on whether the young generation is willing to inherit them. 1．What is the writer’s attitude towards teenagers learning traditional arts? A．He is strongly against it. B．He thinks it is a waste of time. C．He supports it with reasons. D．He doesn’t care about it. 2．According to Paragraph 2, what can traditional arts help teenagers understand? A．Their cultural roots. B．Foreign languages. C．Modern technology. D．Western history. 3．Why does the writer mention paper-cutting and shadow puppetry in Paragraph 2? A．To show they are easy to learn. B．To give examples of traditional arts. C．To explain why they are disappearing. D．To compare them with modern arts. 4．What does the writer suggest schools and parents do? A．Force all students to learn traditional arts. B．Stop teenagers from learning traditional arts. C．Encourage interested teenagers to learn traditional arts. D．Replace school subjects with traditional art classes. 5．What is the best title for this passage? A．The History of Traditional Arts B．Why Teenagers Should Learn Traditional Arts C．How to Make Paper-cutting D．The Differences Between Modern and Traditional Arts In late August, a British TV host named Kirstie Allsopp found herself in a media storm, because she posted on social media that her son, 15-year-old Oscar, and his 16-year-old friend went on a three-week trip by train to many famous cities like Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin and Madrid. Kirstie ended her story by saying if we worry too much, our kids will be scared too. But if we trust them, they can do amazing things. Her post got two million views. Some people agreed with her. However, others thought it was wrong for teens to travel without adults. This caused a lot of talk, which made the headlines (成为重要新闻) in Britain and even caught the attention of UK social services. People focused on when it’s okay for kids to travel alone without adults. Travel experts say it’s difficult to decide how old someone should be before they can travel alone. It really depends on many factors like how mature (成熟的) they are, their travel experience, the rules of the country they’re going to, and how safe that place is. Carolyn Pearson, who runs a company that helps business travelers stay safe, said, “I think the skills teens learn from traveling by themselves for three weeks might be more valuable than what they learn in three years of school.” People who support young travelers to explore the world believe it can be really good for them, even if it seems risky. Cole Robinson, a filmmaker from Manchester, says his first solo (单独的) trip to Barcelona at 16 was a big moment in his life. It made him work in jobs that let him see the world. In fact, when young travelers are going somewhere, a consent (同意) letter from parents is important. Don’t forget travel insurance (保险), which is also important for beginners.” Travel insurance companies have an interest in solving their customers’ problems, “a travel expert said,” so it will be a way to protect your child in his first solo adventure.” 1．Why did Kirstie face a social media storm? A．She let her young teenage son travel without adult supervision. B．The program she hosted was not popular. C．She was worried about her kid too much. D．She didn’t provide her kid with support. 2．What did people mainly worry about the kids’ trip? A．What kinds of children can travel alone. B．The age at which a child can travel alone. C．Whether young teenagers should travel alone. D．Whether a solo trip can help young teenagers grow. 3．What can we know about Carolyn and Cole? A．Both of them work in a travel company. B．Carolyn is against Cole’s view. C．Neither of them supports Kirstie. D．They share the same view. 4．What is the passage mainly about? A．Different popular ways for teenagers to travel. B．Whether kids should be allowed to travel alone. C．An online debate about parenting. D．Traveling alone is beneficial to kids’ growth. Many teenagers feel worried about high school entrance exams these days. A study from Henan Education Research Center interviewed over 1,200 Grade Nine students last month, trying to find out their stress sources and useful ways to relax. Nearly 70% of students said their biggest stress came from school grades. Li Jia, a student from Zhengzhou No.3 Middle School, told reporters she spends over 11 hours studying every day. “My parents expect me to get into the top key high school. If my exam scores drop a little, I feel terrible and can’t sleep well at night,” she said. About 22% of teenagers’ pressure comes from family communication. Some parents always compare their kids with classmates, which makes teenagers lose confidence easily. Only 8% said they felt stressed because of relationships with friends. Experts offered several practical suggestions. First, set small and clear daily goals instead of only focusing on final exam results. For example, finish one math exercise set or memorize 20 English words each day. Second, talk openly with parents about your true feelings. Most parents don’t realize strict words will hurt kids’ hearts. Third, spend at least 30 minutes on sports every day. Running, skipping rope or playing badminton can help bodies produce happy chemicals to reduce tiredness. What’s more, short breaks are necessary. Don’t sit at desks all day. Looking out of windows for five minutes or drinking a cup of warm milk can calm down nervous minds quickly. The study also reminded teachers not to push students too hard. Proper encouragement works much better than endless homework. 1．How many students took part in the study? A．Less than 1,200. B．More than 1,200. C．Exactly 1,200. D．Over 2,000. 2．What is the main stress for most students? A．Friend problems. B．Family talks. C．School grades. D．Too much housework. 3．How long does Li Jia study every day? A．Over 11 hours. B．About 10 hours. C．Less than 9 hours. D．8 hours. 4．Which way is NOT mentioned to reduce stress? A．Doing sports. B．Chatting with parents. C．Taking short rests. D．Traveling outside. 5．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A．Reasons of teen stress. B．Useful stress-relief advice. C．Results of the survey. D．Rules for school teachers. 重难语篇练习 Saving the Strings: How Teenagers Are Bringing Puppetry Back to Life In Fuzhou, a group of teenagers are surprising audiences with their puppet performances—not with high-tech special effects, but with their fingers, strings, and a deep love for tradition. The group, called “Young Hands,” was started by 17-year-old Lin Xiaoming two years ago. “I grew up watching my grandfather perform puppetry,” Lin says. “I was born into a family of puppet performers, and puppetry is in my blood.” But when he entered high school, he noticed that most of his classmates had never watched a live puppet show. “They thought puppets were just toys for little kids,” he says. Instead of giving up, Lin decided to do something. He started a puppet club at his school. At first, only five students joined. “Unless we show them how amazing puppetry can be, they won’t understand it,” Lin thought. So the team prepared a special show combining traditional puppet skills with modern storytelling. The performance was a huge success. Among the 200 students who watched, many were amazed by how lively the puppets became with just a few finger movements. “If I move my fingers carefully, the puppet will come to life,” Lin explained to the audience after the show. “It takes years of practice, but it’s worth it.” Now, the “Young Hands” team has 35 members. They perform at schools, community centres, and even local festivals. “We want to draw attention to this beautiful art,” Lin says. “It’s our duty to keep it alive for the next generation.” Their efforts have paid off. The local government has invited them to perform at the city’s annual culture festival, and more teenagers are joining the club every month. “Puppetry is not old-fashioned,” Lin says with a confident smile. “It just needs young hands and young hearts to bring it to life.” 1．What does the underlined phrase “in my blood” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Inside my body. B．Something I am naturally good at. C．Something I am afraid of. D．A disease I have. 2．Why did Lin Xiaoming start the puppet club at his school? A．Because his grandfather asked him to. B．Because he wanted to make money. C．Because he wanted to introduce puppetry to more teenagers. D．Because his teacher required him to do so. 3．According to the passage, what made the “Young Hands” performance successful? A．High-tech special effects and modern music. B．Expensive puppets from other countries. C．Traditional puppet skills with modern storytelling. D．Famous professional performers. 4．How many members does the “Young Hands” team have now? A．5. B．35. C．200. D．17. 5．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．The local government doesn’t care about puppetry. B．More teenagers are becoming interested in puppetry. C．Lin’s team will stop performing soon. D．Puppetry will disappear in Fuzhou. ①It’s often believed that only grown-ups can make a difference. Is it true?

The colourful puppets and the performers’ skilled finger movements seemed magical to her. “I felt really close to this art right away,” she says. However, when Wang Lin entered high school, things changed. Her classmates thought puppetry was old-fashioned and made fun of her hobby. “They said it was for old people, not for teenagers,” she recalls. Slowly, Wang Lin felt less close to puppetry and stopped practising for almost two years. Last summer, Wang Lin attended a traditional culture camp in her city. There, she met 70-year-old Master Chen, a famous puppet performer. “Puppetry is not just an art — it carries our history and stories,” Master Chen told the teenagers. “If you give it a chance, it will speak to you.” Master Chen’s words touched Wang Lin deeply. She started practising again, this time with more passion than ever. She also used social media to share videos of her performances. To her surprise, many of her classmates started showing interest. “Now they think it’s pretty cool!” she says happily. Wang Lin now leads a teenage puppet team at her school. “It’s our duty to keep this art alive,” she says. “Puppetry is not old-fashioned at all. It’s amazing, and everyone can feel close to it if they try.” 1．How did Wang Lin feel about puppetry when she first saw it at age seven? A．She thought it was boring. B．She was attracted by it. C．She felt it was old-fashioned. D．She didn’t pay attention to it. 2．Why did Wang Lin stop practising puppetry for almost two years? A．Because she was too busy with high school studies.

A．She gave them money to watch shows. B．She shared performance videos on social media. C．She asked Master Chen to talk to them. D．She forced them to join her team. 5．What is the main message of this passage? A．Teenagers should not practise traditional arts. B．Shadow puppetry will disappear because it’s old.

Some people say no because they believe teenagers should focus on school subjects. However, learning traditional arts can bring many benefits to young people. First, traditional arts help teenagers understand their cultural roots. When a teenager learns paper-cutting or shadow puppetry, he or she is not just learning a skill.  He or she is connecting with centuries of history and wisdom. This sense of belonging is important for building cultural confidence. Second, traditional arts can improve creativity. Many traditional art forms require imagination and patience. For example, making a puppet involves designing, carving and painting. These processes train the brain to think in new ways. Third, learning traditional arts teaches responsibility. When teenagers take on the duty of keeping an old art alive, they learn what it means to serve their community. Zhan Haojing once said it was her duty to keep the art alive because puppetry was in her blood. Of course, teenagers should balance their time between schoolwork and hobbies. But if they are interested in traditional arts, schools and parents should encourage them. After all, the future of these precious art forms depends on whether the young generation is willing to inherit them. 1．What is the writer’s attitude towards teenagers learning traditional arts? A．He is strongly against it. B．He thinks it is a waste of time. C．He supports it with reasons. D．He doesn’t care about it. 2．According to Paragraph 2, what can traditional arts help teenagers understand? A．Their cultural roots. B．Foreign languages. C．Modern technology. D．Western history. 3．Why does the writer mention paper-cutting and shadow puppetry in Paragraph 2? A．To show they are easy to learn. B．To give examples of traditional arts. C．To explain why they are disappearing. D．To compare them with modern arts. 4．What does the writer suggest schools and parents do? A．Force all students to learn traditional arts. B．Stop teenagers from learning traditional arts. C．Encourage interested teenagers to learn traditional arts. D．Replace school subjects with traditional art classes. 5．What is the best title for this passage? A．The History of Traditional Arts B．Why Teenagers Should Learn Traditional Arts C．How to Make Paper-cutting D．The Differences Between Modern and Traditional Arts 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．B 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文主要探讨青少年是否应当学习传统艺术，作者从理解文化根源、提升创造力、培养责任感三个方面阐述青少年学习传统艺术的诸多益处，并建议学校和家长鼓励感兴趣的青少年学习传统艺术。 1．第一段表明观点：“However, learning traditional arts can bring many benefits to young people.”，后文分三点给出理由，说明作者支持青少年学习传统艺术。 2．第二段点明：“First, traditional arts help teenagers understand their cultural roots.”，说明传统艺术能够帮助青少年理解自身的文化根源。 3．第二段提到 “When a teenager learns paper-cutting or shadow puppetry”，是列举剪纸、皮影的例子，作为传统艺术的实例支撑段落观点。 4．最后一段提出：“if they are interested in traditional arts, schools and parents should encourage them.”，说明作者建议学校和家长鼓励对传统艺术感兴趣的青少年去学习。 5．全文围绕问题 “Should teenagers learn traditional arts?” 展开，逐条论述青少年学习传统艺术的好处，最合适的标题是“Why Teenagers Should Learn Traditional Arts”。 In late August, a British TV host named Kirstie Allsopp found herself in a media storm, because she posted on social media that her son, 15-year-old Oscar, and his 16-year-old friend went on a three-week trip by train to many famous cities like Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin and Madrid. Kirstie ended her story by saying if we worry too much, our kids will be scared too. But if we trust them, they can do amazing things. Her post got two million views. Some people agreed with her. However, others thought it was wrong for teens to travel without adults. This caused a lot of talk, which made the headlines (成为重要新闻) in Britain and even caught the attention of UK social services. People focused on when it’s okay for kids to travel alone without adults. Travel experts say it’s difficult to decide how old someone should be before they can travel alone. It really depends on many factors like how mature (成熟的) they are, their travel experience, the rules of the country they’re going to, and how safe that place is. Carolyn Pearson, who runs a company that helps business travelers stay safe, said, “I think the skills teens learn from traveling by themselves for three weeks might be more valuable than what they learn in three years of school.” People who support young travelers to explore the world believe it can be really good for them, even if it seems risky. Cole Robinson, a filmmaker from Manchester, says his first solo (单独的) trip to Barcelona at 16 was a big moment in his life. It made him work in jobs that let him see the world. In fact, when young travelers are going somewhere, a consent (同意) letter from parents is important. Don’t forget travel insurance (保险), which is also important for beginners.” Travel insurance companies have an interest in solving their customers’ problems, “a travel expert said,” so it will be a way to protect your child in his first solo adventure.” 1．Why did Kirstie face a social media storm? A．She let her young teenage son travel without adult supervision. B．The program she hosted was not popular. C．She was worried about her kid too much. D．She didn’t provide her kid with support. 2．What did people mainly worry about the kids’ trip? A．What kinds of children can travel alone. B．The age at which a child can travel alone. C．Whether young teenagers should travel alone. D．Whether a solo trip can help young teenagers grow. 3．What can we know about Carolyn and Cole? A．Both of them work in a travel company. B．Carolyn is against Cole’s view. C．Neither of them supports Kirstie. D．They share the same view. 4．What is the passage mainly about? A．Different popular ways for teenagers to travel. B．Whether kids should be allowed to travel alone. C．An online debate about parenting. D．Traveling alone is beneficial to kids’ growth. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，由一则英国主持人允许未成年儿子独自跨国旅行引发舆论热议的新闻展开，围绕青少年是否适合独自旅行展开多方讨论，分析独自旅行的价值与出行注意事项。 1．根据第一段“...because she posted on social media that her son, 15-year-old Oscar, and his 16-year-old friend went on a three-week trip by train...”以及第二段“However, others thought it was wrong for teens to travel without adults.”可知，Kirstie遭遇媒体风暴是因为她让未成年的儿子独自旅行，这引发了争议。 2．根据第二段“People focused on when it’s okay for kids to travel alone without adults.”以及第三段“Travel experts say it’s difficult to decide how old someone should be before they can travel alone.”可知，人们主要担忧和讨论的焦点在于孩子多大年龄适合独自旅行。虽然争议起因是“是否应该”，但文中明确指出公众关注点落在了“when/how old”上。 3．根据第四段Carolyn说的话“...skills teens learn from traveling by themselves... might be more valuable...”可知她认为独自旅行很有价值；根据第五段Cole的经历“...his first solo trip to Barcelona at 16 was a big moment in his life.”可知他认为独自旅行对他人生影响重大。两人都对青少年独自旅行持支持态度，观点一致。 4．文章首先由一位母亲让儿子独自旅行引发的争议切入，接着讨论了公众对此的担忧（年龄、安全），然后引用专家和支持者的观点说明独自旅行的益处，最后给出建议。整篇文章围绕“是否应该允许孩子独自旅行”以及相关的讨论展开。 Many teenagers feel worried about high school entrance exams these days. A study from Henan Education Research Center interviewed over 1,200 Grade Nine students last month, trying to find out their stress sources and useful ways to relax. Nearly 70% of students said their biggest stress came from school grades. Li Jia, a student from Zhengzhou No.3 Middle School, told reporters she spends over 11 hours studying every day. “My parents expect me to get into the top key high school. If my exam scores drop a little, I feel terrible and can’t sleep well at night,” she said. About 22% of teenagers’ pressure comes from family communication. Some parents always compare their kids with classmates, which makes teenagers lose confidence easily. Only 8% said they felt stressed because of relationships with friends. Experts offered several practical suggestions. First, set small and clear daily goals instead of only focusing on final exam results. For example, finish one math exercise set or memorize 20 English words each day. Second, talk openly with parents about your true feelings. Most parents don’t realize strict words will hurt kids’ hearts. Third, spend at least 30 minutes on sports every day. Running, skipping rope or playing badminton can help bodies produce happy chemicals to reduce tiredness. What’s more, short breaks are necessary. Don’t sit at desks all day. Looking out of windows for five minutes or drinking a cup of warm milk can calm down nervous minds quickly. The study also reminded teachers not to push students too hard. Proper encouragement works much better than endless homework. 1．How many students took part in the study? A．Less than 1,200. B．More than 1,200. C．Exactly 1,200. D．Over 2,000. 2．What is the main stress for most students? A．Friend problems. B．Family talks. C．School grades. D．Too much housework. 3．How long does Li Jia study every day? A．Over 11 hours. B．About 10 hours. C．Less than 9 hours. D．8 hours. 4．Which way is NOT mentioned to reduce stress? A．Doing sports. B．Chatting with parents. C．Taking short rests. D．Traveling outside. 5．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A．Reasons of teen stress. B．Useful stress-relief advice. C．Results of the survey. D．Rules for school teachers. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇调查报告，介绍了对1200多名九年级学生压力来源的调查结果，发现主要压力来自学习成绩，并给出了缓解压力的实用建议。 1．第一段明确指出：“A study from Henan Education Research Center interviewed over 1,200 Grade Nine students.”说明参与研究的学生超过1200名。 2．第二段明确指出：“Nearly 70% of students said their biggest stress came from school grades.”说明大多数学生的主要压力来自学习成绩。 3．第二段明确指出：“Li Jia... spends over 11 hours studying every day.”说明李佳每天学习超过11小时。 4．第三段提到“spend at least 30 minutes on sports every day”（运动）、“talk openly with parents”（与父母沟通），第四段提到“short breaks are necessary”（短暂休息）。文中未提到“外出旅行”。 5．第三段提出了缓解压力的建议：设定小目标、与父母沟通、每天运动。因此本段主要讲述“有用的减压建议”。 重难语篇练习 Saving the Strings: How Teenagers Are Bringing Puppetry Back to Life In Fuzhou, a group of teenagers are surprising audiences with their puppet performances—not with high-tech special effects, but with their fingers, strings, and a deep love for tradition. The group, called “Young Hands,” was started by 17-year-old Lin Xiaoming two years ago. “I grew up watching my grandfather perform puppetry,” Lin says. “I was born into a family of puppet performers, and puppetry is in my blood.” But when he entered high school, he noticed that most of his classmates had never watched a live puppet show. “They thought puppets were just toys for little kids,” he says. Instead of giving up, Lin decided to do something. He started a puppet club at his school. At first, only five students joined. “Unless we show them how amazing puppetry can be, they won’t understand it,” Lin thought. So the team prepared a special show combining traditional puppet skills with modern storytelling. The performance was a huge success. Among the 200 students who watched, many were amazed by how lively the puppets became with just a few finger movements. “If I move my fingers carefully, the puppet will come to life,” Lin explained to the audience after the show. “It takes years of practice, but it’s worth it.” Now, the “Young Hands” team has 35 members. They perform at schools, community centres, and even local festivals. “We want to draw attention to this beautiful art,” Lin says. “It’s our duty to keep it alive for the next generation.” Their efforts have paid off. The local government has invited them to perform at the city’s annual culture festival, and more teenagers are joining the club every month. “Puppetry is not old-fashioned,” Lin says with a confident smile. “It just needs young hands and young hearts to bring it to life.” 1．What does the underlined phrase “in my blood” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Inside my body. B．Something I am naturally good at. C．Something I am afraid of. D．A disease I have. 2．Why did Lin Xiaoming start the puppet club at his school? A．Because his grandfather asked him to. B．Because he wanted to make money. C．Because he wanted to introduce puppetry to more teenagers. D．Because his teacher required him to do so. 3．According to the passage, what made the “Young Hands” performance successful? A．High-tech special effects and modern music. B．Expensive puppets from other countries. C．Traditional puppet skills with modern storytelling. D．Famous professional performers. 4．How many members does the “Young Hands” team have now? A．5. B．35. C．200. D．17. 5．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．The local government doesn’t care about puppetry. B．More teenagers are becoming interested in puppetry. C．Lin’s team will stop performing soon. D．Puppetry will disappear in Fuzhou. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述少年林小明创立“Young Hands”木偶社团，将传统木偶技艺和现代故事讲述结合，让更多青少年了解、喜爱木偶戏，传承这项传统技艺的故事。 1．第二段第三句“I was born into a family of puppet performers, and puppetry is in my blood.”结合前文他出生于木偶表演世家，可知“in my blood”指与生俱来、天生擅长的事物。 2．第三段第四句“‘Unless we show them how amazing puppetry can be, they won’t understand it,’Lin thought.”说明林小明创办木偶社团，是想要把木偶戏介绍给更多青少年。 3．第三段第五句“So the team prepared a special show combining traditional puppet skills with modern storytelling.”说明“Young Hands”的演出成功源于把传统木偶技艺和现代故事讲述相结合。 4．第五段第一句“Now, the ‘Young Hands’ team has 35 members.”说明现在这个团队有35名成员。 5．第六段第一、二句“Their efforts have paid off. The local government has invited them to perform at the city’s annual culture festival, and more teenagers are joining the club every month.”由此可以推断出越来越多青少年对木偶戏产生兴趣。 ①It’s often believed that only grown-ups can make a difference.
