I was 16 then and couldn’t understand why she would spend her evenings talking to people she ____12____ knew. One evening, I happened to hear her conversation with an elderly lady. She asked about the lady’s dinner and even discussed the beautiful roses in the park. When she ended the call, I questioned her why she chose these ____13____ topics. With a kind smile, she explained, “I might be the only ____14____ she talked to today.

Today, we will use CO2 to blow up a balloon! Mixing baking soda (小苏打) with vinegar (醋) together can give off the CO2. What you’ll need （1）A balloon （2）About 40 ml of water （3）A soft drink bottle （4）Vinegar or lemon juice （5）A teaspoon of baking soda Instruction (说明) ●Before you begin, make sure that you pull the balloon long to make it as easy as possible to blow up. ●Put the 40 ml of water into the soft drink bottle. ●Add the baking soda and mix it with water. ●Put the vinegar in and quickly put the balloon over the mouth of the bottle. What’s happening? If all goes well, then the balloon should become bigger and bigger! Adding the vinegar to the baking soda creates a chemical result. The baking soda is a base (碱), while the vinegar is an acid (酸). When the two are mixed, they’ll create CO2. The gas rises up and runs away through the soft drink bottle. However, it doesn’t get away from the balloon, pushing it out and blowing it up. 根据短文和图示内容，选择最佳答案。 24. What will be given off when the baking soda and vinegar are mixed? A. O2 B. O3 C. CO2 D. CO 25. What can be used instead of vinegar? A. Lemon juice. B. Milk. C. Water. D. Tea. 26. What should you do before you begin the chemical test? A. Heat the water. B. Pull the balloon long. C. Blow up the balloon. D. Drink some juice. 27. What shows that the chemical test is successful? A. The soft drink bottle is broken. B. The balloon gets smaller suddenly. C. Something smelly begins to appear. D. The balloon becomes bigger and bigger. 28. Where is this passage most probably from? A. A storybook. B. A guidebook. C. An art magazine. D. A science magazine. （B） The five-second rule is a popular idea that says if your food falls on the floor, it’s still safe to eat as long as you pick it up within five seconds. But is this true? Scientists have tested the five-second rule, and most of them agree that it’s not a good guideline (指导原则) on food safety. How long the food stays on the floor doesn’t matter as much as two other things: what kind of food it is and where it lands. For example, wet foods, like fruits, are easier to get dirty. They pick up more bacteria (细菌) than dry foods, like biscuits. This is because bacteria can travel more easily in water. The floor surface also makes a difference. Scientists have done tests on different floor surfaces, like metal, tiles (瓷砖), and carpets (地毯), to see which one lets bacteria get on food the most. Guess what? Food that fell on carpets picked up the fewest bacteria. This is because carpets have small fibers (纤维) that don’t let food touch much of their surface, while smooth (光滑) surfaces like tiles have a bigger area for bacteria to get on the food. However, picking up food quickly can still help keep it cleaner, because the longer it stays on the floor, the more chances there are for bacteria to get on it. But even if it’s just five seconds, some bacteria can still get on the food. This makes the five-second rule a questionable practice for making sure food is safe to eat. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 29. What’s the five-second rule about? A. Food waste. B. Food safety. C. Food business. D. Food production. 30. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Dry foods are safer to eat. B. The floor surface makes food dirty. C. Bacteria can make food taste worse. D. Wet foods are easier to get dirty than dry foods. 31. Which floor surface makes food pick up the fewest bacteria? A. Tiles. B. Metal. C. Carpets. D. Wood. 32. What does the writer think of the five-second rule? A. Doubtful. B. Successful. C. Helpful. D. Useful. 33. What does the passage mainly tell us about the five-second rule? A. It shows how to pick up food quickly. B. It’s not useful for keeping food clean at all. C. It’s not a good way to decide if food is safe to eat. D. It works best on the wet food that falls on a wet floor. （C） ①The Amsterdam Light Festival is one of the most special art events in the world. It’s all about using light to create unusual and beautiful images for everyone to enjoy. ②It usually takes place for 53 days between December and January every year. It is a time when artists from around the world get to Amsterdam for a really big outdoor art show. The art, which is lit from 5 p. m. to 11 p. m. every night, is mostly located along the city’s famous canals (运河). ③Each year’s event has its own theme. The thirteenth Amsterdam Light Festival takes place from November 28th, 2024 until January 19th, 2025, and has the theme “Rituals (仪式)”. Rituals have traditionally helped people through all kinds of transformations, from past to future, from winter to summer, from youth to adulthood. Light plays an important role in many rituals. They bring people together. Past themes include “Building Bridges” “Celebrate Light” and “Nature Calls”. ④The Amsterdam Light Festival has also found a way to include kids in the event. More than 1, 500 students in the city’s schools take part in the discussions in which they learn about creativity, technology, and most importantly, light as a form of art. They also visit the festival with their friends, teachers, and families. ⑤Most visitors agree that the best way to see the Amsterdam Light Festival is by booking a boat tour. However, plenty of people like to walk along the canals in their winter coats. There’s even a mobile app to search for information. ⑥So, if you find yourself in Amsterdam next December, you can enjoy the Amsterdam Light Festival, and like hundreds of thousands of people from around the world, you can see the lights too! 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 34.

That means there are nearly 2.5 million ants for every human. How did they count such a big number? In the past, many scientists counted ants in different places. They picked up fallen leaves and earth and dried them to make the ants come out for counting. With the help of 465 studies that cover all lands, the new research made the guess about the number of ants. Wang Runxi, one of the writers, said that the number of ants and where they live can show how the environment is changing. “Ants play an important role in nature,” Wang told Science and Technology Daily. “They help make the earth soft, spread seeds (种子), break down dead things and form a part of the food chain (食物链). They live in many places, but not where it’s too cold.” “Compared with big animals, small ants can feel changes in the environment more easily,” Wang added. Most ants live in high-temperature areas. But in the last few years, ants have been moving toward the cold places because of global warming (全球变暖). Changes in forests, such as cutting down too many trees, also change the number of ants, the study showed. “Our map of ants helps us see how ants will act when the world around them changes,” the scientists wrote. 根据短文内容，判断句子正（T）误（F）。 39. The number of ants is much bigger than that of humans. 40. Ants are important for the environment. 41. Ants can live in every part of the world, including very cold places. 42. The bigger an animal is, the better it can feel the changes in the environment. 43. The map of ants helps scientists understand how ants might change with their environment. （E） Lucy is a 14-year-old girl who loves classical music. Every time she listens to Beethoven’s piano pieces, she feels peaceful. “It helps me forget my worries,” she says. However, her best friend enjoys rock music much more. This shows a simple truth: Different people may have different opinions. However, it is OK to express your own opinions. There’s nothing wrong with sharing what you truly think. ____44____ Here are three tips for you. Listen to others carefully. Although you may want to explain your side, listening to others’ opinions first will help keep the conversation peaceful. ____45____ So, when your friend talks about rock music, don’t cut in. Listen carefully. Express your own opinion politely. Instead of saying “Rock music is too loud,” Lucy could try: “I like softer music better, but your favorite song has cool guitar sounds!” ____46____ Remember, you’re not trying to start an argument. Winning or losing is not the point. Don’t try to force your friend to think like you. Value your friendship most. ____47____ A smile and a sentence like “We’re still friends even if we like different music!” can solve many problems. Over time, this respect will make your friendship even stronger. Differences may help us be better. For teenagers like Lucy, sharing opinions politely is not only about respect. ____48____ As they learn to accept differences, they discover new ideas and become wiser. After all, the world is full of different voices. And understanding them is the first step to grow up. 阅读短文，将A-E五个句子填入文中空缺处，使短文内容完整。 A. Good listeners make others feel respected. B. It also builds confidence. C. But how can you share opinions without hurting others? D. When you disagree about some things, remind yourself that friendship is important. E.
