The workshop is to provide a safe space for teenagers to share how they are feeling about their high school start, normalize the experience and build some strategies (策略) to help them with the transition. This change is just as big for parents. This is why we also offer the parent session and provide you with some tools to support your child and family through this transition. A group of high school starters will explore topics with a psychologist (心理学家), and parents will separately explore topics with another psychologist in another room.

B We all remember that first cry at the movies. Whether they are tears of joy or sadness, it’s quite amazing that human emotion can be controlled by moving images on a screen. In fact, it all comes from a plan. But what about those heart-breaking stories... for kids? They seem not to sugarcoat the realities of the world. Actually, many great kids’ movies filled with tragedy (悲剧) are purposefully meant to stir up kids’ strong feelings. According to Aristotle, tragedy aids us in facing life’s unsolvable problems through sensible (理智的) thinking. Therefore, the existence of tragedy in kids’ movies is to teach kids to handle, to understand and to heal. The hardest lesson for a child is how to deal with loss, especially if it’s sudden. The cartoon classic The Lion King tells the story of Simba, who experiences the loss of his father. Kids see themselves in Simba’s character. He has dreams. He has a desire to grow and be a part of a bigger world. But it is really heartbreaking to see the loss. Why is a film like this so beloved when it makes kids cry? The lesson it teaches is to overcome hardships and to move forward. Hakuna Matata! Yes, the phrase from The Lion King is to teach kids it’s okay to move on from tragic loss and not to let it define you. It’s an important lesson we learned at a very young age. Sadness should not be ignored (忽视). It’s important to feel sad, and that is why these films are so great. In Dumbo, Charlotte’s Web and Bridge to Terabithia, we lose our beloved characters. This quite upsets kids, but it teaches them to accept sadness and makes something new out of it. So, what is the message behind a sad kids’ movie? It’s meant to teach the audience, especially children, to gain their independence and how to free themselves from tragedy. It’s like a cushion (缓冲垫) that differs stories from reality. It helps children deal with sad feelings when they come for real, or at least find relief by saying Hakuna Matata. 29. Why does the author mention “first cry” in paragraph 1? A. To recommend a movie. B. To explain the reason. C. To support an argument. D. To introduce the topic. 30. What does the underlined phrase “Hakuna Matata” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ignoring and accepting sadness. B. Viewing sadness as a treatment. C. Heading forward without being trapped. D. Losing oneself in tragic losses. 31. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Children can find a way to hide sad feelings. B. Children can learn to ignore sadness in tragedy. C. Sad kids’ movies prepare children for difficult times. D. Sad kids’ movies help children to escape from reality. 32. What is the best title for the text? A. What do Sad Kids’ Movies Teach Us? B. How do Great Kids’ Movies Inspire Us? C. Why Are Sad Kids’ Movies So Popular? D. Why do Sad Kids’ Movies Sugarcoat the Reality? C When 16-year-old Kai returned to his hometown after three years, the first thing he noticed was the river. Once the heart of the village—where kids swam, women washed clothes, and old men fished—the water now ran thick and brown, with plastic bags bobbing like sad balloons. “The new factory upstream dumps waste every night,” his grandma sighed, pointing to a rusty pipe sticking out of the riverbank. Kai remembered how the river used to sparkle (闪光). He’d spent summers catching minnows and watching dragonflies land on lily pads. Now, even the willow trees along the bank looked sick, their leaves yellow and wilted. “We can’t just watch it die,” he told his classmates when he visited his old school. They formed a group called “Clear Stream.” First of all, they mapped the pollution sources: the factory pipe, a drainage ditch from the market, and villagers tossing trash. Then, they took action. On weekends, they picked up garbage, their gloves turning black from the muck. They made posters with before-and-after photos of the river and hung them in the village square. “A dead river means dead crops and sick families,” the posters read. The factory owner ignored their letters at first. But when Kai and his friends stood outside the factory gates every morning, holding their posters and handing out leaflets to workers, he finally agreed to meet. “Installing a water filter will cost too much,” he grumbled. Kai showed him a study: polluted water was making villagers ill, and medical bills were rising. “Health is more expensive than a filter,” he said quietly. Months later, the filter was installed. The group kept cleaning, and villagers joined in—even the market traders started using biodegradable bags. One spring morning, Kai knelt by the river and saw a minnow dart past his hand. “It’s breathing again,” he whispered. That night, the village held a celebration by the water, and kids splashed in the shallows, just like old times. 33. Why did the river become polluted? A. Heavy rains caused mudslides. B. A factory dumped waste into it. C. Villagers overfished in the river. D. The willow trees died and rotted. 34. What did “Clear Stream” do first to help the river? A. They held a celebration by the river. B. They installed a water filter for the factory. C. They asked villagers to stop using plastic bags. D. They discovered where the pollution was coming from. 35. What did Kai mean by saying “health is more expensive than a filter”? A. A filter didn’t cost much. B. The owner didn’t want to build a filter. C. Health was more important than money. D. Villagers spent much money on medicine. 36. What can we infer from the story? A. Community effort is key to saving nature. B. Factories should be closed to protect rivers. C. Rivers can clean themselves without human help. D. Young people can solve environmental problems alone. D ①In the heart of Malawi lay the small village of Wimbe, a place where most villagers lived on small farms. William, a clever and bright-eyed boy, grew up in this community. Unlike many of his friends, William was really interested in machines. He would spend hours taking apart old radios and broken mechanical pieces, studying how they worked. ②William dreamed of going to high school. He saw education as a powerful key—a key that could unlock a better future not just for himself, but for his entire family. He imagined learning advanced techniques that could help his father’s farm flourish. However, one year, a drought (干旱) hit Wimbe and the sun shone on the land mercilessly. The crops died and the community was forced into a severe famine (饥荒). William and his family could have only one meal a day. Sometimes William’s father went without a meal so that his family could survive. ③Despite the hardship of their life, William’s spirit was not so easily broken. He began to visit the small village library. He carried an English dictionary with him, looking up every unfamiliar word, slowly piecing together the meaning of the texts. ④One fateful day, a book with a striking image of a towering windmill on its cover caught his eye. He learned that these magical structures could capture the wind’s invisible force and transform it into electricity. A powerful idea began to form in his mind. He looked out at the dry, windswept fields of Wimbe. What if he could build a windmill? ⑤Many villagers, especially other children, laughed at him. They saw a boy collecting garbage and called him “misala”—crazy. But their mockery (嘲笑) didn’t disturb him. With no money for proper tools, he found old plastic pipes, a rusted bicycle frame, and an old tractor fan. But his most successful discovery was a broken generator (发电机). ⑥After months of tireless effort, a strange, beautiful structure began to take shape in his yard—a tower of wood, crowned with plastic blades and connected to the bicycle. The day he raised it, a small crowd gathered, their doubt hanging heavy in the air. But then, the wind blew. It caught the blades, which creaked at first, then began to spin fast. They spun faster and faster and then, the magic happened—a small bulb attached to the generator glowed with a brilliant light. “William had made it! William successfully produced electricity with those pieces of junk! Amazing…” ⑦That first light was just the beginning. William’s windmill soon powered a small pump, bringing life-giving water to the fields and homes. The women of Wimbe no longer had to walk for hours to get water. For the first time, homes glowed with electric light after sunset, allowing children to study. William, the boy they once called crazy, not only produced electricity but also lit a flame of hope and innovation that would forever change the future of his village. 37. Why did William value education so highly? A. To become a scientist. B. To repair more machines. C. To improve his family’s life. D. To save the people in Wimbe. 38. According to the article, what is William like? A. Determined and generous. B. Curious and creative. C. Modest and creative. D. Curious and organized. 39. The sentence “The mockery turned into praise” can be put at the end of ________. A. paragraph ③ B. paragraph ④ C. paragraph ⑤ D. paragraph ⑥ 40. What is the main idea of the article? A. The advantages of a windmill in farming. B. William’s efforts to change his village’s future. C. The problems of drought and famine in Wimbe. D. William’s process of learning advanced techniques by himself. 第二节 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Art is food for the soul, and children learning art actually get advantages.

He wrote a book called The Art of War. It is a short book with just around 6000 words. However, it has been very important for over 2000 years. It is not just about military strategies (策略) but it also has lessons about how to make decisions. The wise lessons can be used in many areas, such as international relations, business management and even sports. Let’s explore the main rules together. Think about all the details Sunzi begins by talking about the importance of strategy. War is a matter of life and death for a country. Leaders must consider all the details. For example, they have to decide if the people support a war. They must think about the skills of military leaders and the strength of soldiers. The weather and landscape are also important. For a successful result, there must be a plan. Without a plan, there is a chance that they might fail. Follow the rules but use them creatively Sunzi says that when there is conflict, both sides might be strong. To win, one side must surprise the enemy. In battle or challenge, it is important to do things in an unexpected way. That means a person should use rules creatively to solve difficult problems. They should think about new methods to combine strategies. Focus on a quick victory Sunzi says that winning a war quickly is important. A battle that continues for too long will make soldiers tired and worried. The enemy will take advantage of this and try to beat them. Sunzi believes that the best strategy is to find a way to win without using too much time. Focus on each task and solve problems as quickly as possible. Fight without doing too much harm Sunzi also talks about the wise way to fight. In war, the best way is to use correct strategies to stop the enemy’s plans in advance. The next best is to isolate the enemy from their supporting parties. The next in order is to beat their armies in the field. The worst choice is to attack their cities. The goal should always be to fight by doing as little harm as possible to the other country. Peace is the best victory Sunzi thinks that a country can fight to win every battle, but this might not be the best result. The war might destroy a lot of the country. Sunzi believes that true strength lies in winning without fighting. It brings peace and safety to the country and its people. A truly wise leader should keep this in mind. The rules in this book are some of Sunzi’s key strategies for winning in war. But following rules without thinking will not bring a successful result. Every situation is different. Wise people apply (运用) the rules differently for each situation. To use the rules well is an art. As a result, the title of Sunzi’s book was translated as The Art of War. 76. Why has Sunzi’s book been important for over 2000 years? _____________________ 77. What must leaders consider according to Sunzi before starting a war? _____________________ 78. How should a person use the rules to solve difficult problems? _____________________ 79. Why was the title of Sunzi’s book translated as The Art of War? _____________________ 80. Which of Sunzi’s rules do you think you can apply in daily life? Why? ____________________ 八、书面表达（本题满分25分） 81. 成长就像一趟长途旅行，一路上我们有收获，也有困惑；我们会享受成功的喜悦也会经历失败的挫折。我们会遇到帮助我们，影响我们的人，我们会体会生活的各种滋味……请根据所给的思维导图中的要点，分享你成长中的点滴和感受。 要求：1. 短文应包含思维导图中所有要点，可适当拓展和补充。 2. 观点明确，语意连贯，层次清楚，书写规范。 3. 表达中不得提及真实姓名和校名等相关信息。 4. 词数120词左右，开头已给出，不计入总词数。 Growing up Growing up is like a long journey and I have learned a lot. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 海南中学2025~2026学年度第一学期期中试卷（初三英语） 第Ⅰ卷（选择题 共85分） 一、听力（共20小题，每小题1分，计20分） 第一部分：听对话回答问题。 本部分共有10道小题，每小题你将听到一段对话，每段对话读两遍。 1.

Why were you so late for this important meeting? — The plane ________ at Incheon International Airport for two hours because of the snowstorm. A. reminded B. remained C. returned D. recycled 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——怎么了？这么重要的会议你为什么迟到这么久？——因为暴风雪，飞机在仁川国际机场停留了两小时。 reminded提醒；remained停留；returned返回；recycled回收。根据“because of the snowstorm”和“for two hours”可知，飞机因天气原因被迫在机场滞留了一段时间，remained 符合语境，应填remained。 2. ________ this is your first visit to New York, you’d better learn some of the customs. A. Unless B. Until C. Since D. Although 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：既然这是你第一次访问纽约，你最好了解一些风俗。 Unless除非；Until直到；Since既然/因为；Although虽然。根据“you’d better learn some of the customs”可知，后半句是建议，前半句是提出建议的原因，Since引导原因状语从句，符合语境。应填Since。 3. — Perfect! You’ve done a good job and you’ll finish the task even better this time! — Thanks, Mr Wu. I believe I can make it. From the dialogue above we can see ________ is a good way to show love and encouragement.

It’s the life in your years.”（重要的不是你生命中的岁月，而是你岁月中的生活。）可知，此处强调的是过有意义的生活才“重要”，matters与名言中的count同义。因此选C。 5. — When shall we go to play basketball in the sports center? — ________this Saturday. A. Until the work will be finished B. Until the work is finished C. Not until the work will be finished D. Not until the work is finished 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我们什么时候去体育中心打篮球？——直到这周六工作完成后才去。 until直到……为止，not until直到……才。根据语境可知，工作完成后才能去，应使用not until；until引导的时间状语从句用一般现在时表将来，故排除含will的选项。 6.

A. to respect, to helping B. being respected, to helping C. respecting, to help D. respecting, to helping 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：张桂梅是值得尊重的，因为她把所有的时间投入到帮助华坪中学的女孩子们。 考查非谓语动词。根据“Zhang Guimei is worth”可知，此处应用动名词作为宾语，构成固定搭配be worth doing“值得做某事”；再根据“she has devoted all her time”可知，此处是固定表达devote ... to doing“把……投入到做某事”，此处有介词to和动名词做之后的宾语。故选D。 7.

Whether they are tears of joy or sadness, it’s quite amazing that human emotion can be controlled by moving images on a screen. In fact, it all comes from a plan. But what about those heart-breaking stories... for kids? They seem not to sugarcoat the realities of the world. Actually, many great kids’ movies filled with tragedy (悲剧) are purposefully meant to stir up kids’ strong feelings. According to Aristotle, tragedy aids us in facing life’s unsolvable problems through sensible (理智的) thinking. Therefore, the existence of tragedy in kids’ movies is to teach kids to handle, to understand and to heal. The hardest lesson for a child is how to deal with loss, especially if it’s sudden. The cartoon classic The Lion King tells the story of Simba, who experiences the loss of his father. Kids see themselves in Simba’s character. He has dreams. He has a desire to grow and be a part of a bigger world. But it is really heartbreaking to see the loss. Why is a film like this so beloved when it makes kids cry? The lesson it teaches is to overcome hardships and to move forward. Hakuna Matata! Yes, the phrase from The Lion King is to teach kids it’s okay to move on from tragic loss and not to let it define you. It’s an important lesson we learned at a very young age. Sadness should not be ignored (忽视). It’s important to feel sad, and that is why these films are so great. In Dumbo, Charlotte’s Web and Bridge to Terabithia, we lose our beloved characters. This quite upsets kids, but it teaches them to accept sadness and makes something new out of it. So, what is the message behind a sad kids’ movie? It’s meant to teach the audience, especially children, to gain their independence and how to free themselves from tragedy. It’s like a cushion (缓冲垫) that differs stories from reality. It helps children deal with sad feelings when they come for real, or at least find relief by saying Hakuna Matata. 29. Why does the author mention “first cry” in paragraph 1? A. To recommend a movie. B. To explain the reason. C. To support an argument. D. To introduce the topic. 30. What does the underlined phrase “Hakuna Matata” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ignoring and accepting sadness. B. Viewing sadness as a treatment. C. Heading forward without being trapped. D. Losing oneself in tragic losses. 31. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Children can find a way to hide sad feelings. B. Children can learn to ignore sadness in tragedy. C. Sad kids’ movies prepare children for difficult times. D. Sad kids’ movies help children to escape from reality. 32. What is the best title for the text? A. What do Sad Kids’ Movies Teach Us? B. How do Great Kids’ Movies Inspire Us? C. Why Are Sad Kids’ Movies So Popular? D. Why do Sad Kids’ Movies Sugarcoat the Reality? 【答案】29. D 30. C 31. C 32. A 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨了悲伤的儿童电影如何通过悲剧情节帮助孩子们理解和处理失去等复杂情感，教会他们面对现实中的困难，并从中获得成长和独立。 【29题详解】 根据第一段“We all remember that first cry at the movies... But what about those heart-breaking stories... for kids?”可知，作者通过描述看电影时的第一次哭泣这一普遍经历，引出后文关于儿童电影中悲伤故事的讨论。由此可知，提到这个是为了引出文章的话题。 【30题详解】 根据第三段“The lesson it teaches is to overcome hardships and to move forward.”以及“Yes, the phrase from The Lion King is to teach kids it's okay to move on from tragic loss and not to let it define you.”可知，该短语意为教导孩子从悲剧中走出来，继续前进，不被困住。 【31题详解】 根据最后一段“It helps children deal with sad feelings when they come for real...”可知，悲伤的儿童电影能帮助孩子们处理真实到来的悲伤情绪，即为艰难时刻做好准备。 【32题详解】 通读全文，尤其是最后一段“So, what is the message behind a sad kids’ movie? It’s meant to teach the audience...”可知，文章主要阐述了悲伤的儿童电影背后所蕴含的教育意义，即它们教给了观众什么道理。 C When 16-year-old Kai returned to his hometown after three years, the first thing he noticed was the river. Once the heart of the village—where kids swam, women washed clothes, and old men fished—the water now ran thick and brown, with plastic bags bobbing like sad balloons. “The new factory upstream dumps waste every night,” his grandma sighed, pointing to a rusty pipe sticking out of the riverbank. Kai remembered how the river used to sparkle (闪光). He’d spent summers catching minnows and watching dragonflies land on lily pads. Now, even the willow trees along the bank looked sick, their leaves yellow and wilted. “We can’t just watch it die,” he told his classmates when he visited his old school. They formed a group called “Clear Stream.” First of all, they mapped the pollution sources: the factory pipe, a drainage ditch from the market, and villagers tossing trash. Then, they took action. On weekends, they picked up garbage, their gloves turning black from the muck. They made posters with before-and-after photos of the river and hung them in the village square. “A dead river means dead crops and sick families,” the posters read. The factory owner ignored their letters at first. But when Kai and his friends stood outside the factory gates every morning, holding their posters and handing out leaflets to workers, he finally agreed to meet. “Installing a water filter will cost too much,” he grumbled. Kai showed him a study: polluted water was making villagers ill, and medical bills were rising. “Health is more expensive than a filter,” he said quietly. Months later, the filter was installed. The group kept cleaning, and villagers joined in—even the market traders started using biodegradable bags. One spring morning, Kai knelt by the river and saw a minnow dart past his hand. “It’s breathing again,” he whispered. That night, the village held a celebration by the water, and kids splashed in the shallows, just like old times. 33. Why did the river become polluted? A. Heavy rains caused mudslides. B. A factory dumped waste into it. C. Villagers overfished in the river. D. The willow trees died and rotted. 34. What did “Clear Stream” do first to help the river? A. They held a celebration by the river. B. They installed a water filter for the factory. C. They asked villagers to stop using plastic bags. D. They discovered where the pollution was coming from. 35. What did Kai mean by saying “health is more expensive than a filter”? A. A filter didn’t cost much. B. The owner didn’t want to build a filter. C. Health was more important than money. D. Villagers spent much money on medicine. 36. What can we infer from the story? A. Community effort is key to saving nature. B. Factories should be closed to protect rivers. C. Rivers can clean themselves without human help. D. Young people can solve environmental problems alone. 【答案】33. B 34. D 35. C 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了16岁少年Kai返乡后发现河流被工厂污染，于是与同学成立“清流”小组，通过调查污染源、动员村民以及说服工厂主安装过滤器等社区共同努力，最终成功恢复河流生态的故事。 【33题详解】 根据第一段中“The new factory upstream dumps waste every night”可推知河流污染的直接原因是工厂排放废物，对应选项B中工厂向河中倾倒废物的描述。 【34题详解】 根据第三段中“First of all, they mapped the pollution sources”可推知小组采取的第一个行动是查明污染来源，与选项D中发现污染来自何处含义一致。 【35题详解】 根据第四段中“medical bills were rising”以及Kai说服工厂主的语境可推知，Kai想表达医疗费用不断上涨，相比过滤器的开销，健康的代价更大。Kai意在表达健康比金钱更重要，选项C符合其含义。 【36题详解】 根据全文内容及第五段中“The group kept cleaning, and villagers joined in... factory owner... agreed to meet”可推知河流恢复生机得益于小组、村民和工厂主的共同协作，说明社区努力是拯救自然的关键，对应选项A。 D ①In the heart of Malawi lay the small village of Wimbe, a place where most villagers lived on small farms. William, a clever and bright-eyed boy, grew up in this community. Unlike many of his friends, William was really interested in machines. He would spend hours taking apart old radios and broken mechanical pieces, studying how they worked. ②William dreamed of going to high school. He saw education as a powerful key—a key that could unlock a better future not just for himself, but for his entire family. He imagined learning advanced techniques that could help his father’s farm flourish. However, one year, a drought (干旱) hit Wimbe and the sun shone on the land mercilessly. The crops died and the community was forced into a severe famine (饥荒). William and his family could have only one meal a day. Sometimes William’s father went without a meal so that his family could survive. ③Despite the hardship of their life, William’s spirit was not so easily broken. He began to visit the small village library. He carried an English dictionary with him, looking up every unfamiliar word, slowly piecing together the meaning of the texts. ④One fateful day, a book with a striking image of a towering windmill on its cover caught his eye. He learned that these magical structures could capture the wind’s invisible force and transform it into electricity. A powerful idea began to form in his mind. He looked out at the dry, windswept fields of Wimbe. What if he could build a windmill? ⑤Many villagers, especially other children, laughed at him. They saw a boy collecting garbage and called him “misala”—crazy. But their mockery (嘲笑) didn’t disturb him. With no money for proper tools, he found old plastic pipes, a rusted bicycle frame, and an old tractor fan. But his most successful discovery was a broken generator (发电机). ⑥After months of tireless effort, a strange, beautiful structure began to take shape in his yard—a tower of wood, crowned with plastic blades and connected to the bicycle. The day he raised it, a small crowd gathered, their doubt hanging heavy in the air. But then, the wind blew. It caught the blades, which creaked at first, then began to spin fast. They spun faster and faster and then, the magic happened—a small bulb attached to the generator glowed with a brilliant light. “William had made it! William successfully produced electricity with those pieces of junk! Amazing…” ⑦That first light was just the beginning. William’s windmill soon powered a small pump, bringing life-giving water to the fields and homes. The women of Wimbe no longer had to walk for hours to get water. For the first time, homes glowed with electric light after sunset, allowing children to study. William, the boy they once called crazy, not only produced electricity but also lit a flame of hope and innovation that would forever change the future of his village. 37. Why did William value education so highly? A. To become a scientist. B. To repair more machines. C. To improve his family’s life. D. To save the people in Wimbe. 38. According to the article, what is William like? A. Determined and generous. B. Curious and creative. C. Modest and creative. D. Curious and organized. 39. The sentence “The mockery turned into praise” can be put at the end of ________. A. paragraph ③ B. paragraph ④ C. paragraph ⑤ D. paragraph ⑥ 40. What is the main idea of the article? A. The advantages of a windmill in farming. B. William’s efforts to change his village’s future. C. The problems of drought and famine in Wimbe. D. William’s process of learning advanced techniques by himself. 【答案】37. C 38. B 39. D 40.

He was good at leading armies. He wrote a book called The Art of War. It is a short book with just around 6000 words. However, it has been very important for over 2000 years. It is not just about military strategies (策略) but it also has lessons about how to make decisions. The wise lessons can be used in many areas, such as international relations, business management and even sports. Let’s explore the main rules together. Think about all the details Sunzi begins by talking about the importance of strategy. War is a matter of life and death for a country. Leaders must consider all the details. For example, they have to decide if the people support a war. They must think about the skills of military leaders and the strength of soldiers. The weather and landscape are also important. For a successful result, there must be a plan. Without a plan, there is a chance that they might fail. Follow the rules but use them creatively Sunzi says that when there is conflict, both sides might be strong. To win, one side must surprise the enemy. In battle or challenge, it is important to do things in an unexpected way. That means a person should use rules creatively to solve difficult problems. They should think about new methods to combine strategies. Focus on a quick victory Sunzi says that winning a war quickly is important. A battle that continues for too long will make soldiers tired and worried. The enemy will take advantage of this and try to beat them. Sunzi believes that the best strategy is to find a way to win without using too much time. Focus on each task and solve problems as quickly as possible. Fight without doing too much harm Sunzi also talks about the wise way to fight. In war, the best way is to use correct strategies to stop the enemy’s plans in advance. The next best is to isolate the enemy from their supporting parties. The next in order is to beat their armies in the field. The worst choice is to attack their cities. The goal should always be to fight by doing as little harm as possible to the other country. Peace is the best victory Sunzi thinks that a country can fight to win every battle, but this might not be the best result. The war might destroy a lot of the country. Sunzi believes that true strength lies in winning without fighting. It brings peace and safety to the country and its people. A truly wise leader should keep this in mind. The rules in this book are some of Sunzi’s key strategies for winning in war. But following rules without thinking will not bring a successful result. Every situation is different. Wise people apply (运用) the rules differently for each situation. To use the rules well is an art. As a result, the title of Sunzi’s book was translated as The Art of War. 76. Why has Sunzi’s book been important for over 2000 years? _____________________ 77. What must leaders consider according to Sunzi before starting a war? _____________________ 78. How should a person use the rules to solve difficult problems? _____________________ 79. Why was the title of Sunzi’s book translated as The Art of War? _____________________ 80. Which of Sunzi’s rules do you think you can apply in daily life? Why? ____________________ 【答案】76. Because it is not just about military strategies but it also has lessons about how to make decisions, and the wise lessons can be used in many areas. 77. They must consider all the details. 78. They should use rules creatively. 79. Because to use the rules well is an art. Different situations need different ways to apply the rules. 80. I think “Think about all the details”.
