Jerry enjoys eating chocolate and candy. His mother often says to him, “Eating too many sweet things is bad for your teeth and can make you fat.” But Jerry never listens to her.
One day, Jerry is playing near a forest (森林). Then, there comes a smell (气味) of chocolate. Following the smell, Jerry walks into the forest and sees a colorful house. The house looks like a big piece (块) of candy. An old woman takes Jerry into the house. She says to Jerry, “This is my house of candy. You can eat all the chocolate and candy here.”
Jerry is happy and he starts eating. As Jerry eats, he grows fat.
Soon, Jerry’s hands are covered with (被……覆盖) chocolate. He wants to wash it. When he gets to the bathroom, he looks at himself in the mirror (镜子). He finds that he has many decaying teeth (蛀牙) . Jerry is afraid. He wants to leave the house.
At that time, Jerry hears his mother’s voice. He opens his eyes and sees his mother. She’s calling him to get up.
Jerry is happy to see his mother. He tells her that he won’t eat too much candy.
24. How does Jerry find the candy house?
A. He follows the map. B. He follows the smell. C. He follows an old woman.
25. What does the underlined word “voice” mean in Chinese?
A. 吵闹 B. 哭喊 C. 声音
26. How may Jerry’s mother feel at last?

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty (渴的) after playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful about what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.
There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great! But after a careful check, you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.
Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be stopped from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.
So we should stay away from the energy drinks to keep healthy.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
28. The energy drinks are popular with ________.
A. students, busy people, young people and sports players
B. policemen, students and busy people
C. old people, young people and students
29. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?
A. The uses of caffeine.
B. The dangers of caffeine.
C. The reason for heart problems.
30. What is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C.
31. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. What’s the use of energy drinks?
B. Who can drink energy drinks?
C. What’s that in energy drinks?
D
阅读短文,根据短文内容,完成下列各题。
Which animal do you prefer to see? A baby panda, a toad (蟾蜍), or a snake? Most people choose the baby panda. Why do people choose this animal? Most people like cute, furry (毛茸茸的) animals with big eyes like the panda. These animals get a lot of attention. Why don’t people like snakes and toads? They’re just not cute like pandas.
Lucy Cooke wants people to respect all animals. Who is Lucy Cooke? Why does she want to show people the importance of other animals? Cooke is a zoologist (动物学家), a scientist who studies animals. She worries about the future of all animals. Scientists need money to study and protect these animals, but they get less money for toads and snakes than for pandas.
“There are so many television shows about koala bears and cats,” Cooke says. To get people interested in less popular animals, Cooke writes stories about them in a blog. She also makes videos about them and puts them online. People love her videos. They are fun to watch.
Cooke is especially interested in frogs and other amphibians (两栖动物). Some of them are in danger of disappearing. She wants to save these animals. Why does she want to save these animals? Other animals depend on them for food. If we save frogs, we save other animals too.
Do you know about the flying frog in Borneo (婆罗洲)? It has wings. It lives in the treetops and goes from tree to tree without going down to the ground. Do you know about the poison dart frog (箭毒蛙)? It is only 1 cm long, but it has enough poison to kill ten people.
Scientists need enough money to protect all animals. Cooke’s videos and blogs make people aware (关注) of all kinds of animals.
32. Why do most people prefer baby pandas to snakes and toads?
____________________________________________________________________________________________
33. How does Lucy Cooke make people interested in less popular animals?
____________________________________________________________________________________________
34. Use a word to describe Lucy Cooke.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
35. Would you like to help protect animals like frogs or toads? Why or why not? (within 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________

“Travelling is the body on the road, and reading is the mind on the road. ____36____ of them offer a way to meet our great curiosity,” Ye Zi, a young scholar (学者), said on the Chinese TV show I Read Books on an Island Season 3. On the show, some of China’s famous ____37____ (write), such as Yu Hua and Su Tong, discuss their favourite literature.
The new season is set in Crete, the ____38____ (large) island in Greece. The viewers can experience the cultural exchange between China and ____39____ (West) countries. Also, it can help good literature from China and abroad reach more people.
The show shows ____40____ (we) the important role of literature in ____41____ (connect) different cultures. “Greece used to be a place only in my imagination ____42____ in the books. Visiting Greece brought my imagination to life,” Su Tong said. This shows a close ____43____ (relation) between travel and literature. Many places that ____44____ (mention) in literature now become places of interest for tourists.

Home is a place where we can truly be ourselves. If I have to ____46____ my family, I will say we’re like a team that supports one another. We live in a small ____47____, but it’s always filled with laughter and warmth. Every weekend, we plan activities together, like baking cookies or playing board games. The smell of freshly baked cookies fills the air, which makes me feel safe and loved.
Being part of a family means we must be ____48____ with each other’s feelings. For example, when my little brother accidentally broke my favourite toy, I saw the worry on his face. Instead of getting angry, I gave him a nod to show I understood it was an accident. Small acts of kindness like this can turn mistakes into moments of growth. We also share responsibilities, like ____49____ or cooking, to keep our home tidy and happy.
Family is a treasure that brings us endless joy. Even on busy days, we try to eat dinner together and talk about our lives. No matter how simple our routines are, these moments remind us that love and effort make a house a home. I’ve learnt that by working together and caring deeply, we can create a space where everyone feels valued — because ____50____ we go, home will always be our safe place.

Dear Kevin,
I’m writing to tell you something about my best friend and me. His name is Tom. He is taller than me, but I have longer hair. Both of us are outgoing and we love doing sports. Though he likes basketball more, I enjoy swimming. In our free time, we often play basketball together to relax ourselves. This summer holiday, we went to Beijing. We visited the Great Wall and took many wonderful photos there. It was really exciting. We always help each other with lessons and study hard. I hope we can be good friends forever.
How about your best friend? Write soon and share your story!
Take care,
Li Ming
