It’s a very old invention. The first umbrellas were used over 4, 000 years ago. They were first used in China and Egypt. But these early umbrellas were not for rain. They were for the sun! Important people used them to stay cool in the hot sun. The word “umbrella” actually comes from a Latin word that means “shadow” or “shade”. The umbrella came to Europe in the 16th century. At first, people thought it was strange to use an umbrella. But by the 18th century, it became popular in England for rain protection. Today, umbrellas are used all over the world. They come in many colors and sizes, from big beach umbrellas to small ones that fit in your bag. The umbrella is a simple but great invention that makes our lives easier on rainy or sunny days. 21. Where were the first umbrellas used? A. In America and England. B. In China and Egypt. C. In Japan and Korea. 22. What were the first umbrellas used for? A. For the rain. B. For the snow. C. For the sun. 23. Who first used umbrellas for rain? A. The Egyptians. B. The English. C. The Chinese. 24. When did the umbrella become popular in England? A. In the 16th century. B. In the 18th century. C. In the 20th century. 25. What is the main idea of this passage? A. How to make an umbrella. B. Why umbrellas are expensive. C. The history and development of umbrellas. B The New Neighbors Last month, a new family moved into the house next door. Their name is the Chen family. They are from China. At first, I was a little shy and didn’t know how to talk to them. My mum said, “Why don’t you bake some cookies and take them over?” So I did. I made a plate of chocolate chip cookies. When I rang the doorbell, a girl about my age opened the door. She looked surprised but smiled. I said, “Hi, I’m Sarah from next door. Welcome to the neighbourhood!” She said, “Thank you! I’m Li Mei. Please come in.” We talked for a while. Her English is very good, though she sometimes searches for the right word. I found out that she loves painting and playing the piano, just like me! We became friends quickly. Now we often do homework together after school. Sometimes, she teaches me a few Chinese words, and I help her with her English pronunciation. It’s really fun to have a friend from a different culture. I’m glad my mum gave me that great idea. 26. How did Sarah first feel about the new neighbors? A. Excited. B. Shy. C. Angry. 27. What did Sarah’s mother advise her to do? A. To invite them for dinner. B. To bake some cookies for them. C. To ask them for help. 28. Who opened the door when Sarah visited? A. Li Mei’s mother. B. Li Mei’s father. C. Li Mei herself. 29. What common interests do Sarah and Li Mei share? A. Playing football and singing. B. Baking cookies and reading. C. Painting and playing the piano. 30. How do the two girls help each other? A. Sarah teaches Li Mei math, and Li Mei teaches Sarah science. B. They cook meals for each other’s families C. Sarah helps with English pronunciation, and Li Mei teaches some Chinese. C The Pressure of Being a “Good Student” Li Ming, a 14-year-old boy from Beijing, has always been known as a “good student”. He gets top scores in almost every subject and is the monitor of his class. However, behind this perfect image, Li Ming is under great pressure. “Everyone expects me to be the best,” he says. “My teachers ask me to help other students, my parents hope I can get into the best high school, and my classmates think I have all the answers. Sometimes, I feel very tired and just want to be an ordinary student.” Li Ming’s situation is not special. A recent survey shows that many so-called “good students” in middle schools face similar problems. They feel they must always meet the high expectations of others and are afraid of failure. This pressure can even affect their sleep and health. Education experts suggest that parents and teachers should care more about these students’ mental health. “It’s important to let children know that it’s okay not to be perfect,” says Dr. Wang. “We should encourage them to develop their own interests and learn how to relax. Their happiness and health are more important than just grades.” 31. What is Li Ming’s main problem? A. He doesn’t get along with his classmates. B. He is under a lot of pressure for being a “good student”. C. His parents are too strict with his grades. 32. Who does NOT have high expectations for Li Ming according to the passage? A. His teachers. B. His parents. C. Education experts. 33. The word “ordinary” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________. A. normal B. excellent C. lazy 34. What does the survey show? A. Many “good students” have health problems. B. Li Ming is the only student with such pressure. C. Many good students share similar problems with Li Ming. 35. What is Dr. Wang’s advice? A. Good students should help others more. B. Schools should give students less homework. C. Happiness and health are more important than grades. 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 The Key Qualities of an Inventor What does it take to become a great inventor?

When you listen well, people feel that you care about them. Here are some tips on how to be a good listener. First, stop what you are doing and give the speaker your full attention. That means putting down your phone, turning off the TV, and looking at them. This shows that you are focused on them. Second, use body language to show you are listening. Nod your head sometimes to show you understand. Keep your arms open, not crossed, to show you are welcoming their words. Third, don’t interrupt (打断) . Let the person finish what they want to say before you speak. It’s rude to cut them off with your own stories or ideas. Finally, ask questions to learn more. You can say, “What happened next?” or “How did that make you feel?” This shows you are interested and helps you understand them better. Being a good listener takes practice, but it’s worth it.
