She was diagnosed with (被诊断) dyslexia at the age of nine. “I could remember how to read a simple word, like ‘the’, on some days, but on other days I would forget,” she said. Soon after, she started receiving special training once a week. The training used different ways to teach her, like seeing, hearing, and moving. “After three weeks, I could read whole sentences,” she said. Three years later, Jennifer tried to help a boy in her neighbourhood. “He was having trouble reading,” she said. “But his parents didn’t know he had dyslexia.” She also wanted to help other kids and their parents. The girl decided to do this by writing a book about her story. Writing a book, of course, is not easy. Jennifer did it slowly. She wrote her ideas down one after another. Finally, after four years, she published her first book, Dyslexia Wonders. Later, she also started a fund (基金). It has helped many kids with dyslexia. 1.

However, doubts and fears often hold us back. How can we face them and succeed? The runner Su Bingtian gives an excellent answer to this question. The young man began his sporting life in 2006. At that time, no one from Asia had ever run the 100m race in less than 10 seconds. Su trained hard and quickly became one of the fastest runners in Asia. In 2011, he ran the race in 10.16 seconds. However, Su wasn’t satisfied. To run in under 10 seconds, in 2014, he changed his starting leg. This was a very risky decision. He had to start from zero. At first, he was slower than before. Also, he was 25 years old. At such an age, many runners choose to stop running. People doubted his decision. However, Su fought his fears and became a sporting hero. In 2015, he clocked 9.99 seconds and made history. In 2021, he finished in 9.83 seconds at the Tokyo Olympics. He also became the first Chinese athlete to run in the Olympic 100m final. Su Bingtian has told youngsters, “Never let your age hold you back. Have a try and try harder. I believe you can write your own story.” Nothing is impossible as long as you try and stick to it. Everyone can be a Superman! 1. When did Su Bingtian begin his sporting life? 2. Why did Su Bingtian change his starting leg in 2014? 3.

If my bedroom is untidy, I find it hard to relax and impossible to do any work! My mom always says “a tidy home means a tidy mind”, and I think this is true. If everything is a mess, you just can’t think clearly. Studies show that people are usually more successful if they work, study, or live in a clean and tidy environment. A study shows that many children with bad behavior (行为) come from messy houses. Children who grow up in dirty houses would probably be unhealthy and they fall sick more often too. This is why people with tidier homes are often healthier and more successful. My mom is a good example of this. She makes sure our home is always very clean and comfortable, so my sister and I hardly ever fall sick. Everyone loves her and she is very successful at her job in a bank. I am not a naturally tidy person. I sometimes throw my clothes on the floor because I am too tired to put them away, and I often leave rubbish on my desk. It is not easy to keep things clean all the time, but I am trying to develop the habit of tidying up every day. Maybe one day I will be as tidy and successful as my mom! That’s my wish too. 1. What does the mother think a tidy home means? 2. What might cause children’s bad behavior according to the study? 3. What kind of person does the writer wish to be? 4. Is your bedroom tidy or messy? What do you plan to do from now on? (write 30 words or more) （八） （25-26八上·辽宁鞍山铁东区-11月·期中）阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 How many trees are there in China? Scientists counted all the trees in China for the first time and found 142.6 billion. That’s like each person in China having around 100 trees! But how did they count so many trees in such a huge country? Scientists used two special “eyes”. One “eye” was a drone (无人机). It flew above the forests and took pictures of the trees. The other “eye” was a small device (设备) with laser sensors (激光传感器). Scientists carried it to collect information while walking through forests. Then, they used AI to study the information and find out the number of trees. Of course, scientists didn’t visit every forest in China. They chose 76,000 different places across the country and counted the trees there. Then they estimated (估算) how many trees there are in all of China. Trees are important for our planet. They help control (控制) the temperature and clean the air. They are also home to many animals. Knowing how many trees there are and where they are helps us protect them better. 1. How many trees does each Chinese person have? 2. What tools did the scientists use to count the trees? 3. Why are trees important? 4. What can you do to help protect trees? (write about 30 words) （一） （25-26八上·辽宁沈阳东北育才学校中山校区·期中）阅读与表达 The Four Great Inventions are major achievements of ancient Chinese civilization (文明), including the compass, paper-making, printing, and gunpowder. They not only shaped China’s development but also had great effects on human civilization worldwide. The compass, a tool for finding directions, first appeared as “Si Nan” during the Warring States period (475-221 B.C.). This early compass was a magnet (磁铁) spoon that pointed south. In the Song Dynasty, people improved it with iron needles, making it widely used for sailing. Later, it spread to the Arab world and Europe, helping European explorers find new routes. Before paper-making, Chinese people wrote on heavy bamboo slips or expensive silk. The technology was invented in the early Western Han Dynasty, and a paper map fragment (碎片) from that time is the earliest known paper. In 105 A.D., Eastern Han inventor Cai Lun improved paper-making using cheap materials like bark (树皮) and old cloth. This made paper popular, and the skill later spread to Korea, Japan, and Europe. Printing developed in two stages. The Tang Dynasty people created woodblock printing by carving words on wooden blocks. Then, in the Northern Song Dynasty, Bi Sheng invented movable clay type. These reusable pieces made printing faster and cheaper—400 years earlier than similar European technology. The technology spread east to Korea and west to Europe, helping the Renaissance (文艺复兴). Gunpowder was invented by accident in the Sui and Tang dynasties. Alchemists (炼金术士) trying to make “immortal medicine” found an explosive mixture. At first used for fireworks, it was later used in weapons like cannons (大炮) in the Tang and Song dynasties. It spread to Europe through Arab countries, changing warfare forever. 1. What are the four great inventions of ancient China? 2. Out of China, where else was the compass popular then? 3. How did Cai Lun improve paper-making? 4. Besides the inventions mentioned above, the wheel is also a practical invention in human history. What do you think of it and explain why.

Brouir began his trip on April 19. For over 120 days, he rode across mountains, rivers and wide fields in Europe and Asia. His journey was not only for fun, but it was also a dream he had kept for a long time—to build a closer connection with China. The idea started last November, when Brouir came to Shanghai to visit his eldest son, who now lives in the city. Brouir joined a cycling event and was touched by the kindness of local riders. “That trip gave me the idea—why not ride all the way from Brussels to Shanghai?” he said. To follow his idea of green travel, Brouir used a special solar tricycle. It had two motors (发动机) and four solar panels (面板). The tricycle also pulled a trailer carrying his tent and daily things. With the help of the panels, he could climb hills without fuel. Along the way, he saw many beautiful places and often received help from strangers. This year marks the 50th anniversary of China—EU relations (中欧建交50周年), which makes his arrival even more meaningful. Brouir said the busy streets and friendly people of Shanghai made him feel at home. “Coming here is not the end,” he smiled, “It is a new beginning.” At the ceremony, officials praised his spirit. They said Shanghai would always welcome friends from Europe. 1. How long did it take Claude Brouir to finish this trip? 2. Why did Claude Brouir take this trip? 3.

I think AI’s help is better than my parents’ for several reasons. When I make mistakes, AI won’t get angry like my parents do. Sometimes, AI is even smarter than my parents and can solve problems they can’t. For example, I once had a physics question, AI broke it down into simple steps. This helped me understand better. It also gave real-life examples, which made learning easier. When I got bad grades, my parents would criticize (批评) me, but AI wouldn’t. All in all, I will choose AI to help me with my homework, and my parents can take a break! Cui Shenghang, 14, Guangxi When I have trouble with my homework, I like asking my parents instead of AI. Sometimes, it is hard to explain a problem in just a few words. Many students need to describe the problem a lot so AI can understand. Also, parents may share their own stories when helping with homework. I enjoy listening to these stories. It is fun to learn more about my parents. At the same time, their stories help me think more creatively. Parents also use kind words when teaching. This makes children feel better and more confident. If parents don’t know the answers, they can use AI first and then explain it to their children. Shao Xinyan, 13, Hubei 1. When Cui needs help with his homework, will he choose AI or his parents? 2. According to Cui, what is the advantage (优点) of AI’s help when he makes mistakes? 3. What does Shao think of her parents’ kind words when they teach her? 4.

But when he grew up, he no longer played around the tree. One day, the boy came back to the tree and looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I am no longer a kid. I do not want to play around you any more,” the boy replied. “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, I don’t have money. But you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy didn’t come back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad. One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I don’t have time to play. We need a house. Can you help me?” “Sorry, I don’t have a house. But you can cut off my branches (枝干) to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him full of joy, but the boy didn’t appear since then. The tree was again lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was very happy. “Come and play with me! “ the tree said. “I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat? “ the boy asked. “Use my trunk (树干) to build the boat. You can sail and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and did not appear for a long time. Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you any more. No more apples for you to eat.” “Sorry, I don’t have teeth to eat,” the boy replied. “No more trunk for you to climb on.” “I am too old for that now,” the boy said. “I really want to give you something—the only thing left is my dying roots,” the tree said. “I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years,” the boy replied. “Good! Come here.

Today, let’s look at three popular traditional Chinese games that are still widely loved in modern life. Jianzi came from cuju, a ball game, in the Han Dynasty. It has been around for over 2,000 years. Jianzi is a simple game with just one rule: players must keep the jianzi in the air as long as possible using any part of the body except for the hands. Although the rule is very simple, the game is quite challenging and requires good coordination (协调性). Nowadays, besides being played in schoolyards, jianzi is also very popular among the elderly (老年人). Kongzhu is an hourglass-shaped (沙漏形状的) toy made of wood or bamboo. Kongzhu playing dates back more than 1,000 years and is especially popular in northern China. When playing this game, a player uses a string (细绳) connected to two hand sticks. The player needs to move the hand sticks up and down to keep the kongzhu spinning (旋转) without it falling to the ground. In 2006, the game was included on the list of China Intangible Cultural Heritage. Douququ began in the Tang Dynasty and became popular in the Song Dynasty. It’s a sport with fights between two crickets (蟋蟀). First, crickets are chosen and grouped according to the size, weight and color. The two are then placed in a small “battlefield”. The cricket owners use straws (麦秆) to encourage their crickets to fight each other. Today, there are still cricket-fighting clubs in some cities. 1. Who enjoys playing jianzi today? 2. What is kongzhu made of? 3. When did Douququ become popular? 4. Which game in the text do you like best? Why?

He was born in 1924 and did very well in school when he was young. Later, he studied abroad and made great progress in physics. But as soon as New China was set up, he gave up his comfortable life overseas and came back. In 1958, Deng Jiaxian got an important secret task: to develop China’s first atomic bomb (原子弹) and hydrogen bomb (氢弹). From that day on, he “disappeared” from his family and friends. For 28 years, he worked in the faraway Gobi Desert (戈壁沙漠). The environment there was very hard—it was extremely hot in summer and freezing cold in winter. He led his team to do experiments day and night, and they faced many difficulties and dangers. In 1964, China’s first atomic bomb exploded (爆炸) successfully with a big bang. Later, the hydrogen bomb test also succeeded. These achievements made China much stronger and safer. During 45 nuclear tests, Deng Jiaxian went to the test area 32 times, and he led 15 of those tests. Once, after a test failed, he ran into the radiation (辐射) area to pick up broken pieces. This hurt his health very badly. Deng Jiaxian died in 1986. He never told others about his achievements, but people call him “the Backbone (栋梁) of China”.

They can bring people special experiences. “Military-style (特种兵式) travel” is one of the most popular travel ways among Chinese college students. They spend a little money traveling to as many places as they can, without having enough rest or sleep. For example, a young man called Nan Duoduo climbed the Five Great Mountains in China within only five days. “Reverse (反向的) travel” is a new fashion among young Chinese travelers. “A man moved 1 meter every 10 minutes on Mount Huangshan” became a hot topic on the Internet during last year’s National Day holiday. More and more people don’t want to go to those famous places on holiday because they are too crowded (拥挤的). They like to spend their free time in less popular places to make themselves relaxed. “Seal (印章)-collecting travel” means tourists collect seals while traveling. It’s really special and meaningful.

Yet, in the Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve (可可西里国家自然保护区) in Qinghai, one such wolf had a different fate (命运). It grew from a poor, thin one to a fat, happy wolf because tourists in the area often fed it. This “act of kindness” leads people to ask: Should tourists feed the wolf? Supporters (支持者) argue that without feeding, the wolf would die because it couldn’t get food by itself. But those who do not agree with the idea believe that humans should not mess with (干扰) the natural order. Science, however, provides us with an answer. Research published in Scientific Reports in June 2019 studied how human feeding affected the lives of bottlenose dolphins (宽吻海豚) near Bunbury, Australia. Dolphins there can sometimes get food from The Dolphin Discovery Centre. After studying more than 10 years of data, the scientists found that dolphins looking for food from boats had a higher risk of death than those who found food themselves. This is because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets (网）. “Feeding wild animals may lead them to depend on humans for food,” warned (警告) Dai Qiang, a scientist at the Chengdu Institute of Biology of Chinese Academy of Sciences. What’s more, animals may bring diseases(疾病) to people who feed them. So, if we come across a wild animal that seems to need our help, what should we do? Qi Xinzhang, deputy director (副主任）of Xining Wildlife Park, said that it’s best to report the animal to the authorities (权威人士) instead of just feeding it. 1. What happened to the wolf in the nature reserve according to Paragraph 1? 2. Why did the bottlenose dolphins looking for food from boats have a higher risk of death? 3. What problem might humans face if they feed wild animals? 4. What do you think of Mr. Qi’s suggestion? And why do you think so?

They keep the air clean, reduce noise pollution, make water cleaner, and provide food and building materials. Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many young trees grow thorns (刺) to stop animals from going near. At the age of 4, trees begin to grow very quickly and become strong enough to face many difficulties later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit. When a tree is 20 to 25 years old, it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. The adult tree can give us shade (树荫), oxygen and natural beauty. It is a great place for us to have a rest or play games. With good care, the adult tree will go on to live healthily for many years. Little by little, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow (空的) or part of it becomes dead, it becomes a home to small animals and a source (来源) of food for many other animals. Trees are very important in our lives.

Last year,2024, it was from October 7 to 13. It is a week to help people understand dyslexia. Dyslexia is a learning problem. It makes reading and spelling hard. This problem has something to do with the brain, but it doesn’t mean the person is dumb (笨拙的). Many smart and talented people have dyslexia. Jennifer Smith is one of them. She was diagnosed with (被诊断) dyslexia at the age of nine. “I could remember how to read a simple word, like ‘the’, on some days, but on other days I would forget,” she said. Soon after, she started receiving special training once a week. The training used different ways to teach her, like seeing, hearing, and moving. “After three weeks, I could read whole sentences,” she said. Three years later, Jennifer tried to help a boy in her neighbourhood. “He was having trouble reading,” she said. “But his parents didn’t know he had dyslexia.” She also wanted to help other kids and their parents. The girl decided to do this by writing a book about her story. Writing a book, of course, is not easy. Jennifer did it slowly. She wrote her ideas down one after another. Finally, after four years, she published her first book, Dyslexia Wonders. Later, she also started a fund (基金). It has helped many kids with dyslexia. 1. What is the purpose of Dyslexia Awareness Week? 2. How did Jennifer’s reading ability change after three weeks of special training? 3. Besides writing a book, how else did Jennifer help children with dyslexia? 4. What do you think of Jennifer? Why? (Write 30 words or more.) 【答案】1. To help people understand dyslexia. 2.

Even best friends have things they share and things that make them different. These similarities and differences actually make our friendships stronger. My best friend Lucy and I have many things in common. We both love watching movies and eating ice cream. At school, we are as serious as each other about our studies. When I have problems with my study, Lucy always encourages me and helps me solve problems. She is an honest friend who always tells me what she really thinks. However, we also have some differences. Lucy is more outgoing than I am. She thinks it’s easy to talk to new classmates while I usually feel nervous about it. When we disagree about something, Lucy likes to discuss it directly, but I prefer (较喜欢)to think about it quietly first. These differences don’t make us less close. Last month when I was sad about losing a game, Lucy touched me by bringing my favorite chocolate. That moment shows me that real friends accept each other’s differences. These are my opinions. What about yours? 1. What does the writer think makes friendships stronger? 2. How does Lucy help the writer with study? 3. List one difference between the writer and Lucy. 4.

However, doubts and fears often hold us back. How can we face them and succeed? The runner Su Bingtian gives an excellent answer to this question. The young man began his sporting life in 2006. At that time, no one from Asia had ever run the 100m race in less than 10 seconds. Su trained hard and quickly became one of the fastest runners in Asia. In 2011, he ran the race in 10.16 seconds. However, Su wasn’t satisfied. To run in under 10 seconds, in 2014, he changed his starting leg. This was a very risky decision. He had to start from zero. At first, he was slower than before. Also, he was 25 years old. At such an age, many runners choose to stop running. People doubted his decision. However, Su fought his fears and became a sporting hero. In 2015, he clocked 9.99 seconds and made history. In 2021, he finished in 9.83 seconds at the Tokyo Olympics. He also became the first Chinese athlete to run in the Olympic 100m final.

If my bedroom is untidy, I find it hard to relax and impossible to do any work! My mom always says “a tidy home means a tidy mind”, and I think this is true. If everything is a mess, you just can’t think clearly. Studies show that people are usually more successful if they work, study, or live in a clean and tidy environment. A study shows that many children with bad behavior (行为) come from messy houses. Children who grow up in dirty houses would probably be unhealthy and they fall sick more often too. This is why people with tidier homes are often healthier and more successful. My mom is a good example of this. She makes sure our home is always very clean and comfortable, so my sister and I hardly ever fall sick. Everyone loves her and she is very successful at her job in a bank. I am not a naturally tidy person. I sometimes throw my clothes on the floor because I am too tired to put them away, and I often leave rubbish on my desk. It is not easy to keep things clean all the time, but I am trying to develop the habit of tidying up every day. Maybe one day I will be as tidy and successful as my mom! That’s my wish too. 1.

Scientists counted all the trees in China for the first time and found 142.6 billion. That’s like each person in China having around 100 trees! But how did they count so many trees in such a huge country? Scientists used two special “eyes”. One “eye” was a drone (无人机). It flew above the forests and took pictures of the trees. The other “eye” was a small device (设备) with laser sensors (激光传感器). Scientists carried it to collect information while walking through forests. Then, they used AI to study the information and find out the number of trees. Of course, scientists didn’t visit every forest in China. They chose 76,000 different places across the country and counted the trees there. Then they estimated (估算) how many trees there are in all of China. Trees are important for our planet.

They not only shaped China’s development but also had great effects on human civilization worldwide. The compass, a tool for finding directions, first appeared as “Si Nan” during the Warring States period (475-221 B.C.). This early compass was a magnet (磁铁) spoon that pointed south. In the Song Dynasty, people improved it with iron needles, making it widely used for sailing. Later, it spread to the Arab world and Europe, helping European explorers find new routes. Before paper-making, Chinese people wrote on heavy bamboo slips or expensive silk. The technology was invented in the early Western Han Dynasty, and a paper map fragment (碎片) from that time is the earliest known paper. In 105 A.D., Eastern Han inventor Cai Lun improved paper-making using cheap materials like bark (树皮) and old cloth. This made paper popular, and the skill later spread to Korea, Japan, and Europe. Printing developed in two stages. The Tang Dynasty people created woodblock printing by carving words on wooden blocks. Then, in the Northern Song Dynasty, Bi Sheng invented movable clay type. These reusable pieces made printing faster and cheaper—400 years earlier than similar European technology. The technology spread east to Korea and west to Europe, helping the Renaissance (文艺复兴). Gunpowder was invented by accident in the Sui and Tang dynasties. Alchemists (炼金术士) trying to make “immortal medicine” found an explosive mixture. At first used for fireworks, it was later used in weapons like cannons (大炮) in the Tang and Song dynasties. It spread to Europe through Arab countries, changing warfare forever. 1. What are the four great inventions of ancient China? 2. Out of China, where else was the compass popular then? 3. How did Cai Lun improve paper-making? 4. Besides the inventions mentioned above, the wheel is also a practical invention in human history. What do you think of it and explain why. (30 words or more) 【答案】1. The compass, paper-making, printing, and gunpowder. 2. It was popular in the Arab world and Europe. 3. He improved paper-making by using cheap materials like bark and old cloth. 4. I think the wheel is a very important invention because it made transportation much easier. It allowed people to move heavy things and travel long distances, which helped trade and communication develop. Without the wheel, many later inventions like cars and machines would not exist.（答案不唯一，言之有理即可） 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了中国古代四大发明——指南针、造纸术、印刷术和火药，分别说明其起源、发展和传播，以及它们对中国乃至世界文明的影响。 (1)题解析： 根据“The Four Great Inventions are major achievements of ancient Chinese civilization, including the compass, paper-making, printing, and gunpowder.”可知，四大发明是指南针、造纸术、印刷术和火药。故填The compass, paper-making, printing, and gunpowder.

Claude Brouir, a 63-year-old man from Belgium, arrived after riding more than 12,000 kilometers from Brussels on a solar tricycle (太阳能三轮车). People in Shanghai welcomed him warmly. Brouir began his trip on April 19. For over 120 days, he rode across mountains, rivers and wide fields in Europe and Asia. His journey was not only for fun, but it was also a dream he had kept for a long time—to build a closer connection with China. The idea started last November, when Brouir came to Shanghai to visit his eldest son, who now lives in the city. Brouir joined a cycling event and was touched by the kindness of local riders. “That trip gave me the idea—why not ride all the way from Brussels to Shanghai?” he said. To follow his idea of green travel, Brouir used a special solar tricycle. It had two motors (发动机) and four solar panels (面板). The tricycle also pulled a trailer carrying his tent and daily things. With the help of the panels, he could climb hills without fuel. Along the way, he saw many beautiful places and often received help from strangers. This year marks the 50th anniversary of China—EU relations (中欧建交50周年), which makes his arrival even more meaningful. Brouir said the busy streets and friendly people of Shanghai made him feel at home. “Coming here is not the end,” he smiled, “It is a new beginning.” At the ceremony, officials praised his spirit. They said Shanghai would always welcome friends from Europe. 1. How long did it take Claude Brouir to finish this trip? 2. Why did Claude Brouir take this trip? 3.

When I make mistakes, AI won’t get angry like my parents do. Sometimes, AI is even smarter than my parents and can solve problems they can’t. For example, I once had a physics question, AI broke it down into simple steps. This helped me understand better. It also gave real-life examples, which made learning easier. When I got bad grades, my parents would criticize (批评) me, but AI wouldn’t. All in all, I will choose AI to help me with my homework, and my parents can take a break! Cui Shenghang, 14, Guangxi When I have trouble with my homework, I like asking my parents instead of AI. Sometimes, it is hard to explain a problem in just a few words. Many students need to describe the problem a lot so AI can understand. Also, parents may share their own stories when helping with homework. I enjoy listening to these stories. It is fun to learn more about my parents. At the same time, their stories help me think more creatively. Parents also use kind words when teaching. This makes children feel better and more confident. If parents don’t know the answers, they can use AI first and then explain it to their children. Shao Xinyan, 13, Hubei 1. When Cui needs help with his homework, will he choose AI or his parents? 2.

A little boy loved to come and play around it every day. But when he grew up, he no longer played around the tree. One day, the boy came back to the tree and looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I am no longer a kid. I do not want to play around you any more,” the boy replied. “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, I don’t have money. But you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy didn’t come back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad. One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I don’t have time to play. We need a house. Can you help me?” “Sorry, I don’t have a house. But you can cut off my branches (枝干) to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches of the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him full of joy, but the boy didn’t appear since then. The tree was again lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was very happy. “Come and play with me! “ the tree said. “I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat? “ the boy asked. “Use my trunk (树干) to build the boat. You can sail and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and did not appear for a long time. Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you any more. No more apples for you to eat.” “Sorry, I don’t have teeth to eat,” the boy replied. “No more trunk for you to climb on.” “I am too old for that now,” the boy said. “I really want to give you something—the only thing left is my dying roots,” the tree said. “I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years,” the boy replied. “Good! Come here. Please sit down with me and have a rest.” You may think that the boy is cruel (残忍的) to the tree, but that’s how some of us are treating (对待) our parents. 1.

Today, let’s look at three popular traditional Chinese games that are still widely loved in modern life. Jianzi came from cuju, a ball game, in the Han Dynasty. It has been around for over 2,000 years. Jianzi is a simple game with just one rule: players must keep the jianzi in the air as long as possible using any part of the body except for the hands. Although the rule is very simple, the game is quite challenging and requires good coordination (协调性). Nowadays, besides being played in schoolyards, jianzi is also very popular among the elderly (老年人). Kongzhu is an hourglass-shaped (沙漏形状的) toy made of wood or bamboo. Kongzhu playing dates back more than 1,000 years and is especially popular in northern China. When playing this game, a player uses a string (细绳) connected to two hand sticks. The player needs to move the hand sticks up and down to keep the kongzhu spinning (旋转) without it falling to the ground. In 2006, the game was included on the list of China Intangible Cultural Heritage. Douququ began in the Tang Dynasty and became popular in the Song Dynasty. It’s a sport with fights between two crickets (蟋蟀). First, crickets are chosen and grouped according to the size, weight and color. The two are then placed in a small “battlefield”. The cricket owners use straws (麦秆) to encourage their crickets to fight each other. Today, there are still cricket-fighting clubs in some cities. 1. Who enjoys playing jianzi today? 2. What is kongzhu made of? 3. When did Douququ become popular? 4. Which game in the text do you like best? Why? Write 30 words or more. 【答案】1. Students and the elderly.

He was born in 1924 and did very well in school when he was young. Later, he studied abroad and made great progress in physics. But as soon as New China was set up, he gave up his comfortable life overseas and came back. In 1958, Deng Jiaxian got an important secret task: to develop China’s first atomic bomb (原子弹) and hydrogen bomb (氢弹). From that day on, he “disappeared” from his family and friends. For 28 years, he worked in the faraway Gobi Desert (戈壁沙漠). The environment there was very hard—it was extremely hot in summer and freezing cold in winter. He led his team to do experiments day and night, and they faced many difficulties and dangers. In 1964, China’s first atomic bomb exploded (爆炸) successfully with a big bang. Later, the hydrogen bomb test also succeeded. These achievements made China much stronger and safer. During 45 nuclear tests, Deng Jiaxian went to the test area 32 times, and he led 15 of those tests. Once, after a test failed, he ran into the radiation (辐射) area to pick up broken pieces.

Nowadays, there are a lot of new ways to travel. They can bring people special experiences. “Military-style (特种兵式) travel” is one of the most popular travel ways among Chinese college students. They spend a little money traveling to as many places as they can, without having enough rest or sleep. For example, a young man called Nan Duoduo climbed the Five Great Mountains in China within only five days. “Reverse (反向的) travel” is a new fashion among young Chinese travelers. “A man moved 1 meter every 10 minutes on Mount Huangshan” became a hot topic on the Internet during last year’s National Day holiday. More and more people don’t want to go to those famous places on holiday because they are too crowded (拥挤的). They like to spend their free time in less popular places to make themselves relaxed. “Seal (印章)-collecting travel” means tourists collect seals while traveling. It’s really special and meaningful. People usually collect seals from places of interest, shops, and other places. Every time you open your collection, it brings back beautiful moments. The winter vacation is coming soon. Do you have any travel plans? Choose your favourite way to travel with your family! 1. How many new ways of traveling are mentioned in the passage? 2.

Yet, in the Hoh Xil National Nature Reserve (可可西里国家自然保护区) in Qinghai, one such wolf had a different fate (命运). It grew from a poor, thin one to a fat, happy wolf because tourists in the area often fed it. This “act of kindness” leads people to ask: Should tourists feed the wolf? Supporters (支持者) argue that without feeding, the wolf would die because it couldn’t get food by itself. But those who do not agree with the idea believe that humans should not mess with (干扰) the natural order. Science, however, provides us with an answer. Research published in Scientific Reports in June 2019 studied how human feeding affected the lives of bottlenose dolphins (宽吻海豚) near Bunbury, Australia. Dolphins there can sometimes get food from The Dolphin Discovery Centre. After studying more than 10 years of data, the scientists found that dolphins looking for food from boats had a higher risk of death than those who found food themselves. This is because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets (网）. “Feeding wild animals may lead them to depend on humans for food,” warned (警告) Dai Qiang, a scientist at the Chengdu Institute of Biology of Chinese Academy of Sciences. What’s more, animals may bring diseases(疾病) to people who feed them. So, if we come across a wild animal that seems to need our help, what should we do? Qi Xinzhang, deputy director (副主任）of Xining Wildlife Park, said that it’s best to report the animal to the authorities (权威人士) instead of just feeding it. 1. What happened to the wolf in the nature reserve according to Paragraph 1? 2. Why did the bottlenose dolphins looking for food from boats have a higher risk of death? 3. What problem might humans face if they feed wild animals? 4. What do you think of Mr. Qi’s suggestion? And why do you think so? Write 30 words or more. 【答案】1. It grew from a poor, thin one to a fat happy wolf./It became fat and happy. 2. Because they may get hit by boats or caught by fishing nets. 3. They may/might get sick/ill./They may/might be sick/ill./Wild animals may bring diseases to people who feed them. 4. I think his suggestion is helpful/good for animals and people. Because feeding animals may lead them to depend on humans for food, and sometimes it’s dangerous for people, so we mustn’t feed them. 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了游客喂养野生动物引发的争议，通过科学研究和专家观点说明了喂养的危害，并给出了正确做法。 (1)题解析： 根据原文第一段“one such wolf had a different fate.

However, these little ones also teach us something. Never give up. Have you noticed that when something is in front of ants, they do not sit down or become sad? They just keep going. One day, I watched a small ant taking a bug (小虫) back to its nest (巢穴). A leaf in the way was a big problem, but the ant was not giving up. It tried very hard to work out a way. Finally, the ant got that bug over the leaf and into the nest. Ask for help. Think about it: have you ever seen an ant move something too big by itself? That never happens. When a load (负荷) is too big, the ant signals (发信号) to the others for help. Why don’t we do more of this? Sometimes, we are just too afraid to ask someone to share the load. Sharing can make our lives much easier. Think winter in summer. Ants know there are seasons. They collect food and build the nest all through the summer, even when they still have enough to eat. So when the cold days of winter come, the ants can stay in their warm nest and never worry about being hungry. They plan for their lives! 1. What got in the way of the ant when it was taking a bug? 2. Why don’t we ask others for help to share the load sometimes? 3. When do ants build the nest? 4. Which quality (品质) of ants’ is the most useful to your studies? Give your reason(s). (Write 30 words or more) 【答案】1. A leaf. 2. Because we are just too afraid. 3. All through the summer. 4.

At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many young trees grow thorns (刺) to stop animals from going near. At the age of 4, trees begin to grow very quickly and become strong enough to face many difficulties later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults.

Little by little, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature.
