You don’t want to miss out on anything or run out of money on your trip. Figure out what’s possible for your budget (预算) and plan a perfect trip.(想想你想去的所有地方、想吃的美食以及想参与的活动。你可不想错过任何精彩之处，也不想在旅行中耗尽所有资金。根据你的预算确定可行的事项，然后精心规划一次完美的旅行)”可知，本段主要讲要为旅行做计划和预算。故F选项“为你的完美旅行计划一个旅程和预算”切题。故选F。 (2)题解析： 根据上文“Plan your flights and ground transportation in advance.(提前计划好航班和地面交通)”以及“And once you land, make sure you know how to navigate(导航)from the airport to your hotel.(一旦你着陆，确保你知道如何从机场导航到你的酒店)”可知，要提前预定去旅馆的车。故D选项“你可以提前预定去旅馆的车”切题。故选D。 (3)题解析： 根据下文“Booking hotels in advance will help you avoid high costs and “No Vacancy” (客满) signs: apartment rentals and hostels can be affordable options if you’re traveling on a budget.(提前预订酒店能帮助您避免高额费用和“客满”标识：如果您的旅行预算有限，公寓租赁和青年旅社都是较为经济的选择)”可知，要提前预定酒店。故E选项“在你到达那里之前，确保你知道你将住在哪家酒店”切题。故选E。 (4)题解析： 根据上文“If you’re visiting a foreign language-speaking country, study key phrases and the correct pronunciations.(如果你要去一个使用外语的国家旅行，那么就学习一些基本的常用语句以及正确的发音吧)”可知，选项与上文为并列关系，说明要了解当地的情况。故G选项“了解当地的天气情况，带上适当的衣物”切题。故选G。 (5)题解析： 根据上文“Pack the things you need and nothing you don’t.(把你需要的东西打包好，而把不需要的统统舍弃)”可知，本段主要建议要轻装出发。故B选项“打包轻便的物品”切题。故选B。 Passage 2 （25-26高一上·河北六校联合体·期中）Building Healthy Self-Esteem in Teenagers The teenage years are a critical period for developing self-esteem, which is how much a person values and believes in themselves. High self-esteem helps teenagers make positive choices, build strong relationships, and cope with challenges. 1 Here are some practical ways to help. Set Realistic Goals. Encourage teenagers to set achievable goals. Success in small things, like improving a grade or mastering a new skill, can significantly boost their confidence. 2 Instead, help them see it as a learning opportunity. Focus on Effort, Not Just Outcome. Praise the hard work and dedication a teenager puts into a task, not just the final result. This teaches them that their value isn’t solely based on success or failure. 3 Develop a Healthy Body Image. In the age of social media, teenagers are often exposed to unrealistic beauty standards. 4 Encourage them to appreciate what their bodies can do, like playing a sport or creating art, rather than just how they look. Limit Social Media Comparison. Remind them that social media is a highlight reel, not real life. 5 Encourage offline activities and hobbies that bring them joy and a sense of accomplishment. Building self-esteem is a journey, not a destination. With consistent support and guidance, teenagers can develop a strong and positive sense of self that will serve them well throughout their lives. A. It’s about the process, not just the prize. B. Parents should strictly control their teenagers’ online time. C. Low self-esteem, however, can lead to poor academic performance and social anxiety. D. If they fail to reach a goal, don’t let them feel ashamed. E. Comparing themselves to these curated images can be harmful. F. Therefore, it is crucial to talk about health over appearance. G. Teenagers should avoid all forms of physical exercise to prevent injury. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. A 4. F 5. E 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何培养青少年的健康自尊。 (1)题解析： 根据上文“High self-esteem helps teenagers make positive choices, build strong relationships, and cope with challenges.(高自尊有助于青少年做出积极的选择、建立牢固的人际关系并应对挑战)”可知，空格处需通过对比，说明低自尊的负面影响。C选项“Low self-esteem, however, can lead to poor academic performance and social anxiety.(然而，低自尊会导致学习成绩不佳和社交焦虑)”中“however”表转折，“Low self-esteem”与上文“High self-esteem”形成对比，“lead to poor academic performance and social anxiety”具体阐述了低自尊的危害，既呼应了“自尊对青少年的重要性”，又为下文“培养自尊的方法”提供了必要性支撑。故选C项。 (2)题解析： 根据上文“Encourage teenagers to set achievable goals. Success in small things, like improving a grade or mastering a new skill, can significantly boost their confidence.(鼓励青少年设定可实现的目标。在小事上取得成功——比如提高成绩或掌握一项新技能——就能显著增强他们的自信心)”及下文“Instead, help them see it as a learning opportunity.(相反，帮助他们将其视为一次学习的机会)”可知，空格处需描述“未达成目标”的情况，并与下文“视为学习机会”形成转折。D选项“If they fail to reach a goal, don’t let them feel ashamed.(如果他们未能达成目标，不要让他们感到羞愧)”中“If they fail to reach a goal”承接上文“设定目标”的话题，“don’t let them feel ashamed”与下文“instead”后的“视为学习机会”形成逻辑转折，符合“失败不可怕，重在学习”的导向。故选D项。 (3)题解析： 根据本段小标题“Focus on Effort, Not Just Outcome.(重视努力，而不仅仅是结果)”及上文“Praise the hard work and dedication a teenager puts into a task, not just the final result. This teaches them that their value isn’t solely based on success or failure.(赞扬青少年在任务中付出的努力和投入，而不仅仅是最终结果。这会让他们明白，自身价值并非仅仅取决于成功或失败)”可知，空格处需总结本段核心观点——过程比结果更重要。A选项“It’s about the process, not just the prize.(重要的是过程，而不仅仅是奖励)”中“the process”对应上文“hard work and dedication”，“the prize”对应上文“final result”，精准概括了本段主题，且与小标题语义一致，起到强化观点的作用。故选A项。 (4)题解析： 根据上文“In the age of social media, teenagers are often exposed to unrealistic beauty standards.(在社交媒体时代，青少年经常接触到不切实际的审美标准)”及下文“Encourage them to appreciate what their bodies can do, like playing a sport or creating art, rather than just how they look.(鼓励他们欣赏自己的身体所能做到的事情，比如运动或创作艺术，而不仅仅是关注外表)”可知，空格处需提出“应重视健康而非外表”的观点。F选项“Therefore, it is crucial to talk about health over appearance.(因此，谈论健康比谈论外表更为重要)”中“therefore”体现因果逻辑（因接触不切实际的审美标准，故需强调健康），“health over appearance”直接呼应下文“appreciate what their bodies can do rather than just how they look”，起到承上启下的作用。故选F项。 (5)题解析： 根据上文“Remind them that social media is a highlight reel, not real life.(提醒他们，社交媒体上展示的都是精华片段，而非真实生活)”及下文“Encourage offline activities and hobbies that bring them joy and a sense of accomplishment.(鼓励他们参与能带来快乐和成就感的线下活动及爱好)”可知，空格处需说明“与社交媒体上的精心筛选内容攀比”的危害。E选项“Comparing themselves to these curated images can be harmful.(将自己与这些精心挑选的形象进行比较可能是有害的)”中“these curated images”指代上文“social media is a highlight reel”，“can be harmful”点明攀比的负面影响，既承接了前文“社交媒体的非真实性”，又为下文“鼓励线下活动”提供了逻辑依据（因攀比有害，故需转移注意力到线下）。故选E项。 Passage 3 （25-26高一上·河北沧州南皮县第一中学·期中）An earthquake can strike without warning. But many injuries and deaths from this kind of natural disasters can be prevented if people follow these safety tips. If you’re inside a building, stay there! One of the most dangerous things to do in an earthquake is to try to leave a building. 1 Drop to the ground. Get under an object that is not easily damaged. Hold on to it until the shaking stops. You can also get to a corner formed by two walls with your arms over your head. If you’re in bed when the quake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow. 2 Don’t take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses, buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse over you. 3 If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of clothing. Use your cell phone to call for help if possible. Don’t shout. 4 Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.

Even though we were visiting in the middle of August, which is usually very hot, the weather in Bama was pleasantly cool. 3 . One lunch, we were served a simple, local soup. The villagers told us that this soup is good for making you feel hungry and that it might even help your brain work better. The soup itself was very basic, made only from tofu, green lettuce (生菜), and water. 4 . I can’t say for sure if it made me any smarter, but I noticed that I ate more lunch than I normally would. We also spent time just enjoying the peaceful life. We walked along quiet paths, listened to the sounds of nature, and saw the beautiful green mountains all around us. 5 . After seeing everything in Bama with my own eyes, I have my own ideas about why people live so long there, I believe where you live and what you eat can really change your life. A.

(我们沿着安静的小路走，听着大自然的声音，看到我们周围美丽的青山)”描绘了作者在巴马漫步时所看到的宁静小路、听到的大自然声音以及周围美丽的青山，营造出一种宁静祥和的氛围。C选项“The whole village had a quiet and relaxing feeling (整个村庄有一种安静和放松的感觉)”对上文所描述的场景进行了总结和升华，将具体的景象上升到对整个村庄氛围的感受，使读者对巴马的整体环境有了更深刻的印象，符合语境。故选C。 Passage 2 （25-26高一上·河北保定部分校·期中）Becoming the best that you can be might seem hard, but you can do it with the following advice. 1 . Every person has something they were born to do. You have a unique purpose for being here, and you have to find it. As Pablo Picasso says, “The meaning of life is to find your gift.

Take risks Have you been nervous up until now to put yourself out there for fear of failure? 2 . Learn to be courageous and take advantage of more opportunities(机会) that come your way, like they do. Read situations and people to decide which opportunities are worth your time. Then, focus on making a good plan. Be around happy and good people. 3 .

(进行自我评估，让你更接近自己的本真，也更接近成为你注定要成为的那个人)”可知，本段围绕寻找并发现真实的自我和人生价值展开。B项“发现你的真我和价值观”适合作本段小标题。故选B项。 (2)题解析： 本段小标题为“Take risks (承担风险)”。根据上文“Have you been nervous up until now to put yourself out there for fear of failure?(你是否一直因为害怕失败而不敢展现自己？)”以及下文“Learn to be courageous and take advantage of more opportunities (机会) that come your way, like they do. (学会勇敢，并像成功人士一样，利用更多降临到你身上的机会)”可知，本段讨论要敢于承担风险，F项“成功人士并非靠一直规避风险而取得成功的”通过指出成功人士的做法，引出“需要承担风险”的观点，承接上下文。故选F。 (3)题解析： 本段小标题为“Be around happy and good people(与快乐、善良的人为伍)”。空处位于段首，统领下文。根据下文“As the old saying goes, ‘Birds of a feather flock together.’ (正如那句老话所说：‘物以类聚，人以群分。’)”可知，本段阐述人际交往中“近朱者赤”的相互影响关系。E项“你花费最多时间相处的人是你的一面镜子”揭示了社交环境对个人品性的作用，与后文形成有效呼应。故选E项。 (4)题解析： 根据上文“Choose people who have qualities you like(选择拥有你喜欢特质的人)”可知，C项“这些特质可能也会帮助你”中的这些特质与前文qualities形成词汇复现，补充说明选择的意义。故选C项。 (5)题解析： 本段小标题为“Build self-trust and relax.

In a world where 61％of nations drive on the right，Brits drive on the left.Why? Most people think it goes back to Medieval，maybe even Roman times. 2 when you remember that right-handed people wear a sword on their left hip.Travelling on the left allowed you to keep your weapon arm toward your opponent，who would be on your right.This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left. Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old-fashioned sink might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water，the other cold. 3 .So，why this oddity? It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent pollution.Drinkable cold water came from a mains supply，but hot water came from attic tanks and was not considered suitable for consumption.So they were kept apart. Millions of people drink tea worldwide，but the odd Brits put milk in theirs.Why? This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cup used in the 18th century when tea was first imposed.For the majority of Brits，the cups available couldn’t stand the heat of the boiling water and would break，so milk was added first. 4 .And this practical tweak soon became a national habit. 5 .As you can see，these odd Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left-hand driving，two-tap sinks and tea with milk.Even if they still seem strange，at least now you’re in the know.

A popular fitness idea called “zone zero” shows that even very easy activities can bring great health benefits. 1 In heart rate training, physical activities are grouped into five levels. Zone zero is the easiest level — it includes any movement that keeps your heart rate below 50% of its highest level. Common zone zero activities include slow walking after meals, easy cycling, playing with pets, or doing light housework. Why is this helpful? For people who sit most of the day, adding gentle movement can greatly improve blood flow, help control blood pressure, and keep blood sugar at healthy levels. Health experts say that people who start moving after sitting all day get the clearest health improvements. 2 Remember, zone zero should not replace harder exercise. If you already work out, it is a good addition. 3 It is also useful for “weekend warriors” — people active only on weekends — as it reduces the harm of sitting too long. The best part is that it’s simple. You don’t need to overthink it. 4 Just move more in enjoyable ways: take the stairs, walk more, or garden. The key is to enjoy what you do and keep doing it. In short, every movement helps you become healthier. 5 By adding pleasant, light activities to your daily life, you can keep healthy in an easy and enjoyable way. A. So, what exactly is “zone zero”? B. It helps muscle recovery on rest days. C. You don’t need to check your heart rate often. D. Staying healthy doesn’t require you to push too hard. E. In fact, most professional athletes avoid such light activities. F. However, some experts argue that its benefits are overstated. G. Slowly, these easy activities also help with balance and make muscles stronger. 【答案】1. A 2. G 3. B 4. C 5. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“零区域”健身理念，指出简单轻松的活动也能带来巨大健康益处，鼓励人们通过增加愉快、轻松的日常活动来轻松愉快地保持健康。 (1)题解析： 由后文“In heart rate training, physical activities are grouped into five levels.

The first decision concerns just how you’ll set up your garden. 1 . To help you start planning your garden, let’s look at some techniques for growing vegetables in any size space. 2 Planting directly in the ground is a traditional way. First, you remove grass and weeds. Then, you mix compost (堆肥) into the soil to help plants grow. This method is cheap and needs less watering. But it takes more work to maintain. Weeds grow quickly, and animals like rabbits can eat the plants. Also, the soil takes longer to warm up in spring. Raised bed gardening Raised beds are boxes filled with soil. They warm up faster in spring and have fewer weeds, allowing for extra-early planting. You can plant more vegetables in a small space, and the soil stays soft because you don’t step on it. However, building raised beds is costly. 3 . Straw bale (稻草捆) gardening In this method, plants grow in straw bales. 4 . Perfect for growing vegetables and flowers that live only one year, bales can be placed in a driveway, yard, or any small place that gets lots of sun. Container (容器) gardening 5 .

Weeds grow quickly, and animals like rabbits can eat the plants. Also, the soil takes longer to warm up in spring.(直接在地里种植是一种传统的方式。首先，你要清除草和杂草。然后，将堆肥混入土壤中，以帮助植物生长。这种方法成本低，而且需要的浇水量较少。但它需要更多的精力来维护。杂草生长得很快，而且像兔子这样的动物可能会吃掉这些植物。此外，土壤在春天升温的时间也会更长。)”可知，这一段介绍的是直接在地里种植蔬菜的方式。选项B“The in-ground vegetable gardening(在地里种植蔬菜园艺)”能概括这一段的内容，符合语境。故选B。 (3)题解析： 根据上文“Raised beds are boxes filled with soil.

Here are some survival suggestions: Don’t just shout. Talk it out. Even if you knew some of your roommates before, living together will be completely different. 1 If there’s a problem, always talk it out with your roommates first. If you still have problems after talking, turn to your teacher for help — especially if you think you need to change rooms. 2 Dorms have some places like the common table, door shelf or power outlet area.

This stops anyone feeling crowded and makes living together smooth. Make your room represent (代表) you. Your dorm room isn’t just the place where you sleep or study but also your home. Make it as you as it can be. Show your personality. 3 Do whatever you can to make your room a comfortable place so you feel right at home. Keep your room clean and happy. Cleanliness is important. Whether you share a space with one person or seven, you should have a cleaning plan. Don’t fall into a situation where one person is always cleaning up after the others. 4 Be open to differences. One of the great things about living in a dorm is that you’ll probably meet people from other places who were raised differently than you were. 5 Instead, try to get to know these students and learn something new. You never know that guy or girl in your dorm might turn out to be one of your lifelong friends! A. Be mindful of shared spaces. B. You can put up your favorite posters. C. Learn to share your space with others. D. The key to making it work is communication. E. Don’t make fun of people for being unlike you. F. Make a cleaning plan everyone can follow for a clean room.

Passage 2 （25-26高一上·河北六校联合体·期中）Building Healthy Self-Esteem in Teenagers The teenage years are a critical period for developing self-esteem, which is how much a person values and believes in themselves. High self-esteem helps teenagers make positive choices, build strong relationships, and cope with challenges. 1 Here are some practical ways to help. Set Realistic Goals. Encourage teenagers to set achievable goals. Success in small things, like improving a grade or mastering a new skill, can significantly boost their confidence. 2 Instead, help them see it as a learning opportunity. Focus on Effort, Not Just Outcome. Praise the hard work and dedication a teenager puts into a task, not just the final result. This teaches them that their value isn’t solely based on success or failure. 3 Develop a Healthy Body Image. In the age of social media, teenagers are often exposed to unrealistic beauty standards. 4 Encourage them to appreciate what their bodies can do, like playing a sport or creating art, rather than just how they look. Limit Social Media Comparison. Remind them that social media is a highlight reel, not real life. 5 Encourage offline activities and hobbies that bring them joy and a sense of accomplishment. Building self-esteem is a journey, not a destination. With consistent support and guidance, teenagers can develop a strong and positive sense of self that will serve them well throughout their lives. A. It’s about the process, not just the prize. B. Parents should strictly control their teenagers’ online time. C. Low self-esteem, however, can lead to poor academic performance and social anxiety. D. If they fail to reach a goal, don’t let them feel ashamed. E. Comparing themselves to these curated images can be harmful. F. Therefore, it is crucial to talk about health over appearance. G. Teenagers should avoid all forms of physical exercise to prevent injury. Passage 3 （25-26高一上·河北沧州南皮县第一中学·期中）An earthquake can strike without warning.

If you’re in bed when the quake hits, stay there and protect your head with a pillow. 2 Don’t take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop as quickly as possible and stay away from overpasses, buildings, bridges or anything else that might fall or collapse over you. 3 If you are trapped in ruins, cover your mouth with a handkerchief or a piece of clothing. Use your cell phone to call for help if possible. Don’t shout. 4 Tap on a pipe or the wall so rescuers can find you.

Passage 1 （25-26高一上·河北沧州泊头市八县联考·期中）This summer, my family and I took a trip to a special place in China called Bama, in Guangxi. For a long time, people have called it the “longevity (长寿) village.” 1 . I knew that in most places of China, the average (平均的) person lives to be about 78. So, I was very curious to see this amazing place for myself and to discover its secrets. When we first arrived in Bama, I took a deep breath. 2 . The locals explained that because there aren’t too many people living there and there are lots of trees and plants everywhere, the air is always fresh. Even though we were visiting in the middle of August, which is usually very hot, the weather in Bama was pleasantly cool. 3 . One lunch, we were served a simple, local soup. The villagers told us that this soup is good for making you feel hungry and that it might even help your brain work better. The soup itself was very basic, made only from tofu, green lettuce (生菜), and water. 4 . I can’t say for sure if it made me any smarter, but I noticed that I ate more lunch than I normally would. We also spent time just enjoying the peaceful life. We walked along quiet paths, listened to the sounds of nature, and saw the beautiful green mountains all around us. 5 . After seeing everything in Bama with my own eyes, I have my own ideas about why people live so long there, I believe where you live and what you eat can really change your life. A. The air felt fresh and clean B. The food in Bama was also a unique experience C. The whole village had a quiet and relaxing feeling D. There isn’t enough science experiments to prove this E. But it was so tasty that I ended up having two full bowls F. The clean air and the peaceful environment are the most important reasons G. This is because it’s famous for having many elderly people who live past 100 years old Passage 2 （25-26高一上·河北保定部分校·期中）Becoming the best that you can be might seem hard, but you can do it with the following advice. 1 . Every person has something they were born to do. You have a unique purpose for being here, and you have to find it. As Pablo Picasso says, “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” Do a self-assessment(自我评估) to get closer to your truth, and closer to becoming the person you were meant to be. Take risks Have you been nervous up until now to put yourself out there for fear of failure? 2 . Learn to be courageous and take advantage of more opportunities(机会) that come your way, like they do. Read situations and people to decide which opportunities are worth your time. Then, focus on making a good plan. Be around happy and good people. 3 . As the old saying goes, “Birds of a feather flock together.” Examine your social circle to see if the people you are around on a daily or weekly basis represent you well. Choose people who have qualities you like, 4 . Build self-trust and relax. Keep a good relationship with yourself. Sometimes, we get so busy that we forget to take care of ourselves. Make sure to check in with yourself often and see how you’re doing. Is there something that you need? Do you need a break? 5 A. Practise positive thinking B. Find your truth and your values C. These qualities might help you, too D. Pushing yourself further can be a good thing E. The people you spend the most time with are a mirror of you F. Successful people don’t achieve success by playing it safe all the time G. Spend time alone and often check if you’re going in the right direction Passage 3 （25-26高一上·河北辛集中学·期中）To an outsider，any culture can seem confusing.And the UK's got a thing or two that raises a few eyebrows.However，understand the why and things might be less puzzling. 1 . In a world where 61％of nations drive on the right，Brits drive on the left.Why? Most people think it goes back to Medieval，maybe even Roman times. 2 when you remember that right-handed people wear a sword on their left hip.Travelling on the left allowed you to keep your weapon arm toward your opponent，who would be on your right.This practice continued until the 18th century when a law was passed requiring all traffic crossing London Bridge to keep to the left. Visitors to the UK that have just washed their hands in an old-fashioned sink might be wondering why one tap is only for hot water，the other cold. 3 .So，why this oddity? It relates to a time when hot and cold water were kept separate to prevent pollution.Drinkable cold water came from a mains supply，but hot water came from attic tanks and was not considered suitable for consumption.So they were kept apart. Millions of people drink tea worldwide，but the odd Brits put milk in theirs.Why? This mysterious practice relates to the quality of china cup used in the 18th century when tea was first imposed.For the majority of Brits，the cups available couldn’t stand the heat of the boiling water and would break，so milk was added first. 4 .And this practical tweak soon became a national habit. 5 .As you can see，these odd Brits have perfectly clear reasons for left-hand driving，two-tap sinks and tea with milk.Even if they still seem strange，at least now you’re in the know. A. This makes it difficult to improve B. There is a method to the madness C. This unusual behavior makes sense D. You can know the origins of the practices E. Either can make washing very uncomfortable F. This cooled the cup enough to resist the boiling water G. Here are the reasons for three of Britain’s more puzzling practices Passage 4 （25-26高一上·河北保定河北定州中学·期中）For many people, travel is a necessary part of celebrating the holidays with loved ones. This means enduring (忍受) all the troubles that can come with traveling and spending time away from the comforts of your own home. You may face delays, and many hours of sitting that can make you suffer mentally and physically. 1 Take control of your posture and breathing 2 And it increases physical and mental tension. That’s why it’s important to take control of your breathing at least once an hour, which can help restore your posture (姿势) and cultivate a sense of calm while traveling. Drink enough water Those muscle pains on the road may have a lot to do with your water intake. Considering that our bodies are mostly water, hydration is important for proper circulation. Your access to drinking water may be limited while traveling, so it’s important to plan ahead. 3 So pack a reusable water bottle and, if you’re driving, don’t forget to bring a cooler with water. 4 Studies regarding the health dangers of long-time sitting are beyond count, yet few people seem to make an effort to avoid it while traveling. Break up long hours of sitting by taking advantage of opportunities to stand and walk around whenever possible. When traveling by air, take a walk around your terminal. When traveling by car, find a park or even a mall on your route where you can get out and take a 10-minute walk. Plan your schedule properly. During the trip, it is necessary to plan the schedule properly to avoid excessive fatigue (疲劳) and tension. 5 A. Do more exercise B. It’s necessary to sleep regularly. C. Stand and walk every opportunity you can D. Most airports have water stations to refill bottles for free. E. You can arrange the time reasonably to avoid a too tight schedule. F. To enjoy the holidays, try these tips below to reduce stress and tension. G. When you sit for long periods while traveling, your posture often suffers. Passage 5 （25-26高一上·河北枣强中学·期中）Many people believe that staying healthy requires hard exercise, but this isn’t always true. A popular fitness idea called “zone zero” shows that even very easy activities can bring great health benefits. 1 In heart rate training, physical activities are grouped into five levels. Zone zero is the easiest level — it includes any movement that keeps your heart rate below 50% of its highest level. Common zone zero activities include slow walking after meals, easy cycling, playing with pets, or doing light housework. Why is this helpful? For people who sit most of the day, adding gentle movement can greatly improve blood flow, help control blood pressure, and keep blood sugar at healthy levels. Health experts say that people who start moving after sitting all day get the clearest health improvements. 2 Remember, zone zero should not replace harder exercise. If you already work out, it is a good addition. 3 It is also useful for “weekend warriors” — people active only on weekends — as it reduces the harm of sitting too long. The best part is that it’s simple. You don’t need to overthink it. 4 Just move more in enjoyable ways: take the stairs, walk more, or garden. The key is to enjoy what you do and keep doing it. In short, every movement helps you become healthier. 5 By adding pleasant, light activities to your daily life, you can keep healthy in an easy and enjoyable way. A. So, what exactly is “zone zero”? B. It helps muscle recovery on rest days. C. You don’t need to check your heart rate often. D. Staying healthy doesn’t require you to push too hard. E. In fact, most professional athletes avoid such light activities. F. However, some experts argue that its benefits are overstated. G. Slowly, these easy activities also help with balance and make muscles stronger. Passage 6 （25-26高一上·河北保定五校·期中）Whether you want to start a vegetable garden or make your garden bigger, you have choices to make. The first decision concerns just how you’ll set up your garden. 1 . To help you start planning your garden, let’s look at some techniques for growing vegetables in any size space. 2 Planting directly in the ground is a traditional way. First, you remove grass and weeds. Then, you mix compost (堆肥) into the soil to help plants grow. This method is cheap and needs less watering. But it takes more work to maintain. Weeds grow quickly, and animals like rabbits can eat the plants. Also, the soil takes longer to warm up in spring. Raised bed gardening Raised beds are boxes filled with soil. They warm up faster in spring and have fewer weeds, allowing for extra-early planting. You can plant more vegetables in a small space, and the soil stays soft because you don’t step on it. However, building raised beds is costly. 3 . Straw bale (稻草捆) gardening In this method, plants grow in straw bales. 4 . Perfect for growing vegetables and flowers that live only one year, bales can be placed in a driveway, yard, or any small place that gets lots of sun. Container (容器) gardening 5 . The advantage of this method is that it turns any sunny space into a place to grow food. On the downside, there is an initial cost of containers (depending on the types of containers you choose). Plus containers dry out quicker than garden beds in the hot summer sun. You have to pay very close attention to watering. A. Starting your personal gardening B. The in-ground vegetable gardening C. It is quick to set up and works well in small spaces D. And the right choice depends on your space, time and goals E. For many people, it sounds difficult to find some proper containers F. To save money, you can use wood or stones to create free-formed beds G. The easiest way to start food gardening is to use planters and other containers Passage 7 （25-26高一上·河北石家庄第二中学·期中）Maybe your child is moving to a new neighborhood or just entering middle or high school. 1 . These tips will help make the transition (过渡) a smooth one. Keep a positive focus As the first day draws near, begin talking to your child about her expectations, hopes, and worries about the upcoming school year. 2 . There is no need to be anxious and she can keep a positive mindset. Present school as a place where she’ll learn new things and make friends. 3 While you don’t want your child to take on too much, it’s important to encourage participation (参与) in one or two activities that interest them. Perhaps surprisingly, this strategy often leads to better grades. Research published in 2022 suggests participation in extracurriculars leads to positive health, behavioral, and academic (学业) outcomes for kids aged 12 to 15. Get enough sleep If your child has enjoyed a vacation of late nights and lazy mornings, getting up for school on the first day may be difficult. Help make this transition easier by starting the school-year sleep habit a week or two in advance. 4 . Get enough supplies Spend the week before the first day of school making sure you and your child know what school supplies are required. 5 . But if not, take it upon yourself to ask and then buy the necessities as early as possible. Note that high school students may require specialized tools for more advanced learning. A. Accompany younger kids B. Encourage extra-curricular participation C. Many schools provide a handy list for the lower grades D. Tell her that other children are having the same feelings E. Sleep plays a key role in strengthening learning and memory F. The first few weeks may be filled with anxiety as well as excitement G. Reading books together about school is a good way to remove fear about school Passage 1 （25-26高一上·河北盐山中学·期中）Do you want to be at the top of your class? Add these tips to your life and you should be on your way to being a top student! 1 I cannot stress (强调) enough how important it is to pay attention to what your teacher is teaching you. Take part in class discussions if you have something worthwhile to add. Pay attention during class, especially during lectures. Taking notes is important. You don’t need to write down every word your teacher says but write down what he writes on the board, or any special fact you think you might need for a test. 2 This way it will help you learn more effectively by actually thinking about what you are writing. Don't skip school (逃学). You will be missing out on stuff. 3 However, you will have more work because you have missed lectures. Also, try not to be late for class. It's most likely that your teacher won't appreciate it and you will get yourself behind. 4 If you have an “I don’t care about school or this class” attitude, then teachers will be less willing to offer you extra credit (学分). The same goes for lazy attitude. Have a respectful attitude to the teacher and other students. Try not to laugh when other students make a mistake. Always ask questions. 5 If you don’t understand, ask someone. Read your textbook and notes, and then if that fails, seek help. Ask a teacher, friend, classmate, parent, etc. Get a tutor if you need one. A. Be prepared. B. Write in your own words. C. Staying organised will be helpful. D. Keep a good attitude toward things. E. There is no shame in needing some help. F. It is true that you could make up the work. G. Pay attention to everything the teacher says. Passage 2 （25-26高一上·河北NT20名校联合体·期中）Living in a dorm (宿舍) this year? Here are some survival suggestions: Don’t just shout. Talk it out. Even if you knew some of your roommates before, living together will be completely different. 1 If there’s a problem, always talk it out with your roommates first. If you still have problems after talking, turn to your teacher for help — especially if you think you need to change rooms. 2 Dorms have some places like the common table, door shelf or power outlet area. Don’t leave your backpack, dirty clothes or books all over them — save room for others. If you use shared things, put them back after. Small acts, like pushing your chair in, keep these spaces nice. This stops anyone feeling crowded and makes living together smooth. Make your room represent (代表) you. Your dorm room isn’t just the place where you sleep or study but also your home. Make it as you as it can be. Show your personality. 3 Do whatever you can to make your room a comfortable place so you feel right at home. Keep your room clean and happy. Cleanliness is important. Whether you share a space with one person or seven, you should have a cleaning plan. Don’t fall into a situation where one person is always cleaning up after the others. 4 Be open to differences. One of the great things about living in a dorm is that you’ll probably meet people from other places who were raised differently than you were. 5 Instead, try to get to know these students and learn something new. You never know that guy or girl in your dorm might turn out to be one of your lifelong friends! A. Be mindful of shared spaces. B. You can put up your favorite posters. C. Learn to share your space with others. D. The key to making it work is communication. E. Don’t make fun of people for being unlike you. F. Make a cleaning plan everyone can follow for a clean room. G. Different personalities often lead to interesting conversations. Passage 3 （25-26高一上·河北张家口第一中学·期中）Do you ever find yourself studying really hard for a test but finally not doing so well? You spent hours reviewing your notes, only to find your hard work doesn’t make you receive a grade you want. It’s not that you’re not smart. 1 If you want to study in an effective way, below are studying methods that may be suitable for you. Try explaining the concepts (概念) that you’re studying to family members or friends. 2 Because while you are explaining, you are forced to organize your thoughts and present the information in a clear way, which can also help you reinforce your knowledge of the subject. Study with friends. If you’re able to stay focused, studying with a group might be more fun than studying alone. 3 It is possible that there’s something you miss or misunderstand, so hearing others’ opinions is very important. Pick possible test topics and hold discussions to gain understanding of these topics in different ways. Use flashcards. Flashcards are a great way to memorize important information! To make it more fun, write your flashcards using colorful pens and mark important parts. 4 I personally use learning apps, where I can find very useful resources for foreign language studies. I’ve also used websites in the past. A lot of sites offer expensive versions, so be aware of which features are free. Try using some of these methods when you study for your next test, and see whether you’ve improved. Studying can be boring. 5 Don’t lose motivation, and you’ll succeed! A. Use online resources. B. Start studying in a more efficient way. C. It’s just that the way you study is wrong. D. This stops us from dealing with information. E. It’s of great help to hear other people’s thoughts. F. Finding ways to make it more fun can really improve your grade. G. Correctly explaining the concepts to others means you understand them. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
