考前押题04 阅读表达4大常考话题 话题1 身心健康 话题2人际交往（常考点） 话题3 艺术审美 话题4 榜样精神 话题1 身心健康（共5篇） Passage 1 Now, more and more young people in China follow traditional Chinese-style activities to stay healthy, such as drinking tea, soaking their feet in hot water, and practising baduanjin, because they find that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) culture fits well with modern scientific health ideas. This phenomenon (现象) also shows that they are becoming interested in a slow life. Chinese baduanjin dates back to the Song Dynasty, and young people pick it up again now. Every weekend, many young people go to Beijing’s Baiyun Temple to take baduanjin classes. The spots (报名名额) are usually fully booked (预订) within only a minute. So why has baduanjin become so popular among young people? To begin with, many young people say they sleep better, have less neck and shoulder pain, and their hands and feet are no longer cold in winter after they practise baduanjin. Next, young people spend a lot of time on their phones in their free time now and seldom go outdoors. According to the ancient book The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Medicine, if people stay indoors for a long time, their energy will disappear. Therefore, people need to go outside to get some energy. Practising baduanjin outdoors can help with that. Besides, in modern society, too many young people care a lot about what they will become, what job they will get, and what their future life will be like. They pay little attention to their present (现在的) daily lives. By practising baduanjin, young people can calm their minds and better understand their true needs for the moment. In a word, Chinese-style health care activities are widely accepted. They make young people’s lives more colourful. 1．How do young Chinese people like the TCM culture? 2．What does the example of Baiyun Temple show? 3．What problem of the young can baduanjin help solve according to paragraph 6? 4．What are the reasons for baduanjin's popularity among young people? 5．Would you like to try practising baduanjin in your free time? (Give one reason in your own words.) Passage 2 Though PE class is a part of children’s education, many teenagers don’t form (养成) the habit of doing exercise. As a result, they don’t have an interest in sports. Enthusiasm (热情) for sports is of great importance. Young people should treat it as part of education. On the one hand, as for school, increasing teenagers’ enthusiasm for sports is a good way to help teenagers keep a healthy lifestyle. In school, students are forced (强迫) to take exercise in the PE class by teachers. They need to join certain activities. In this way, students lead a healthy lifestyle, and they won’t get sick easily. But after they leave school, no one forces them to do so, so they are too lazy to take exercise. As a result, their bodies get weaker. On the other hand, the enthusiasm for sports is helpful for students to increase their sense of teamwork. As we know, most sports need more than one person to play, like badminton and table tennis. These sports need two or more people. When students are playing badminton, they need to cooperate (合作) so that they can defeat (战胜) others. If they just keep an eye on themselves, the game can’t be played well. Doing these sports will bring students a sense of teamwork, which is important for their career (生涯). Teenagers should keep the habit of taking exercise. If they have enthusiasm for sports, taking exercise is a kind of happiness to them. 1．Who forces (迫使) students to take exercise in the school? (1词) 2．Why don’t many teenagers have an interest in sports? (10词以内) 3．What can schools do to help teenagers keep a healthy lifestyle? (10词以内) 4．What can help students to increase their sense of teamwork (团队意识)? (15词以内) 5．As a teenager, what can you learn from the passage? (20词以内) Passage 3 Jianzi, or Chinese shuttlecock kicking, is a traditional sport that has been popular in China for over 2,000 years. Unlike badminton, which uses a racket, jianzi is played using only the feet, knees, chest, or head to keep a weighted shuttlecock in the air. It is simple, fun, and requires no expensive equipment. In recent years, jianzi has entered many schools as part of PE classes. In a primary school in Guangzhou, students have jianzi lessons twice a week. At first, many students found it difficult to control the shuttlecock. However, with practice, they improved quickly. “Jianzi helps me relax after long hours of study,” said Li Ming, a sixth-grade student. “It also improves my balance and concentration.” The school often holds jianzi competitions. During breaks, students gather on the playground to kick jianzi together. This activity not only strengthens their bodies but also helps them build friendships. Teachers notice that students who play jianzi regularly are more active and have better communication skills. Furthermore, jianzi is becoming popular worldwide. There are now international jianzi competitions, attracting players from Europe, Asia, and America. It serves as a cultural bridge, introducing Chinese traditions to the world. As a form of exercise that combines fun, culture, and social interaction, jianzi truly shows how sports can bring people together. 1．How long has jianzi been popular in China? 2．What body parts can be used to play jianzi? 3．How often do the students in the school have jianzi lessons? 4．According to Li Ming, what does jianzi help him do after study? 5．Would you like to try jianzi? Why or why not? Passage 4 Many of us don’t pay much attention to the importance of eye care. It is said that if you take care of each part of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should also be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in the first place. There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not having enough food, genes (基因) and aging (老化). Using your eyes for too long is also a cause of having poor eyesight. If you use your eyes a lot, it is best to take a break every once in a while. Something dirty can cause redness and it will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes too. If this happens, you’d better clean your eyes with cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, you can wear sunglasses when the sun shines a lot. Eating healthy food is good for your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food that has these vitamins. If a person exercises often and eats the right kinds of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time. All the above are natural ways to help us keep our eyes healthy. All in all, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is. 1．What should be put in the first place for eye care according to the text? 2．How many causes of poor eyesight are mentioned (被提及) in the text? 3．What should you do if something dirty causes redness in your eyes? 4．What vitamins are good for our eyes? 5．How can you protect your eyes from harmful things? (Your answer should be different from the underlined one in the text.) Passage 5 Playing sports is a necessary part of students’ daily life. However, many modern teenagers spend too much time on phones and computers, and they seldom do sports. This bad habit brings many problems to their health and study. A recent survey shows that over 60% of middle school students don’t have enough daily exercise. They prefer to stay indoors to play online games or watch videos after finishing homework. As a result, many students are in poor health. Some students get tired easily when studying, and some even have eye problems. Doing sports can solve these problems. First, outdoor sports can protect our eyes and improve our physical condition. Second, sports can reduce our study pressure and make us relaxed. Third, taking part in team sports can improve our social skills and make us more outgoing. Experts suggest that students should spend at least 30 minutes doing sports every day. They can choose simple sports like running, walking or ball games. No matter what kind of sports they choose, keeping on exercising is the most important thing. Sports are never just a game. They are a lifelong treasure for everyone. 1．What do many teenagers prefer to do after homework? (不超过10个词) 2．How many middle school students lack enough exercise according to the survey? (不超过15个词) 3．What is the most important thing when doing sports? (不超过8个词) 4．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? (不超过12个词) 5．What kind of sports will you do to keep healthy? (开放题，不超过15个词) 话题2 人际交往（共5篇） Passage 1 Many teenagers have trouble communicating with their parents. They say their parents cannot truly understand them. When teenagers want to make their own decisions about hobbies or friends, parents often say “no”. This makes teens feel sad and lonely. Lucy, a Grade 9 student, has such a problem. She loves painting very much and hopes to take painting classes in her free time. But her mom thinks it will take too much time away from schoolwork. They often argue with each other. A school advisor gives Lucy some useful advice. He tells her not to shout during arguments. She should talk calmly and explain her real feelings. She can also promise to finish her homework first. In this way, parents may listen to her more patiently. Good communication helps teenagers get on well with their parents. 1．What do many teenagers have trouble doing? 2．Which grade is Lucy in? 3．What does Lucy hope to do in her free time? 4．Who gives Lucy some advice? 5．What shouldn’t Lucy do during arguments? Passage 2 Conflict is everywhere in human life. No one can stay away from it. However, conflict does not always lead to bad results. When we use proper skills, it can help us understand other people better. When a conflict comes, many people want to win the argument. They spend lots of time proving themselves right and others wrong. This is a wrong idea. The purpose of dealing with conflict is not winning, but solving the problem and keeping good relationships. Before discussion, calm yourself down. High‑emotion moments are not suitable for meaningful talks. When you speak, use “I” statements. Talk about your own feelings instead of pointing out others’ mistakes. While listening, keep an open mind. Try to catch the real thoughts behind other people’s words. Sometimes you cannot reach an agreement. In this situation, you can accept the differences. You do not have to make everyone think exactly the same as you. Respect for others is also an important skill in dealing with conflict. 1．Can people completely stay away from conflict? 2．What is the wrong idea many people have when facing conflict? 3．What is the real purpose of dealing with conflict? 4．What kind of moments are not fit for meaningful discussion? 5．What can we do if we fail to reach an agreement? Passage 3 A Growing‑up Record is a high‑quality project for ninth‑graders. Students work in groups and they can pick a scrapbook, an e‑book or a micro‑film to show their understanding of growth. Planning comes first. Group members need to talk about how many sections their work will include, what materials they need and how to divide tasks properly according to personal advantages. Next is Creating. Everyone is required to take an active part in finishing the work as planned. Then it is Presenting. While presenting, you ought to face the audience and express your opinions loudly, clearly and confidently. You should also ask for practical advice from your classmates. The last step is Reflecting. You should think over both advantages and disadvantages of your project and absorb useful experience from other groups’ works. The project tells us that teenagers will face all kinds of challenges during growth. If we try our best to solve them, those challenges will turn into precious opportunities for self‑improvement. 1．What three forms can students choose for the project? 2．What should groups take into consideration in the Planning step? 3．What are students supposed to do when presenting their work? 4．What do students need to do in the Reflecting step? 5．What will challenges become if teenagers solve them with efforts? Passage 4 Communication in the Digital Age In today’s world, we have more ways to communicate than ever before. We can send text messages, make video calls, post on social media, and send emails. However, has digital communication made our relationships better or worse? On the one hand, digital communication has many advantages. It allows us to stay in touch with friends and family who live far away. It is fast and convenient. We can share news and photos instantly. On the other hand, it also has some disadvantages. When we communicate online, we cannot see the other person’s facial expressions or hear their tone of voice. This can lead to misunderstandings. Moreover, some people spend so much time on their phones that they forget to communicate face to face with the people around them. Experts suggest that we should find a balance. Use digital tools to connect with others, but don’t forget the importance of real-life conversations. A simple face-to-face talk can often solve problems that messages cannot. Remember, communication is not just about sending information — it’s about building understanding and trust. 1．What are some advantages of digital communication mentioned in the passage? 2．What can lead to misunderstandings when we communicate online? 3．According to the passage, what is one disadvantage of spending too much time on phones? 4．What do experts suggest we should do? 5．What is the main purpose of communication according to the last paragraph? Passage 5 Making friends as a teenager can be challenging, especially when you’re shy or new to a school. However, friendship is an important part of growing up, and there are many ways to build meaningful connections with others. One of the best ways to make friends is to join in activities that interest you. Whether it’s a sports team, a music club, or an art class, being in a group with shared interests gives you a natural topic to talk about. When you do what you love, you’ll meet people who enjoy the same things, and conversations will feel much easier. Another important tip is to be a good listener. When someone is talking to you, give them your full attention. Ask follow-up questions to show that you care about what they’re saying. People appreciate those who listen carefully, and they will be more willing to open up to you in return. Don’t be afraid to take the first step. Smile and say hello to someone new every day. A simple greeting can be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. You don’t have to be perfect or funny—just be yourself. Authenticity (真实性) is always more attractive than trying to be someone you’re not. Lastly, be patient. True friendships take time to develop. Don’t expect to have a best friend after one conversation. Keep showing up, keep being kind, and keep making small efforts. Over time, those small efforts will grow into lasting friendships. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1．What is one of the best ways to make friends according to the passage? 2．Why should we be a good listener when talking with others? 3．What does the writer advise us to do every day? 4．How long does it take to develop true friendships? 5．Do you think joining a club is helpful for making friends? Why? (自拟一句话作答) 话题3 艺术审美 （共5篇） Passage 1 For thousands of years, the Chinese people have had a deep respect for “Long”, the Chinese dragon. If you travel around China, you’ll find images of dragons almost everywhere, especially in ancient palaces and temples. Some of them are more than 3,500 years old. Countless Chinese artists have tried their hand at painting the dragon. One of them was Chen Rong, a great painter in the Southern Song Dynasty. He is widely considered the best of the dragon painters. His Nine Dragons has been praised as one of the greatest paintings of the Chinese dragon. Chen was born in Fujian in 1200. He once served as the mayor (太守) of Putian in his home province. He also worked for the government in Hangzhou at one point. His political career wasn’t very successful. However, he was widely respected for his talent in poetry, calligraphy and painting. According to historical records, Chen usually painted after drinking a lot of wine. After getting drunk, he would shout, tear off his scarf, dip it in ink and spill the ink madly on xuanzhi. After that, the painter would use brushes to paint some details to finish his work. Chen’s inscription(题词) on Nine Dragons shows that he created it when he was completely drunk. Nine Dragons shows nine energetic dragons rolling, swimming and dancing among clouds, mist, waves, fires and cliffs. There are both crazy drops of ink and very fine lines. They show both the painter’s feeling of great disappointment with his life and his great skills with the brush. Nine Dragons was once treasured at court. Many inscriptions by the Qianlong Emperor praised it highly. It’s said that the emperor liked the painting so much that he ordered a court painter to make a copy of it. 1．In which dynasty was Chen Rong born? 2．According to the article, what was Chen widely respected for? 3．What was special about Chen Rong when he created Nine Dragons? 4．What did the Qianlong Emperor think of Nine Dragons? 5．Would you like to go to see Nine Dragons with your own eyes? Why or why not? Passage 2 Dear You (A Love Letter to Grandma) is a movie from Chaoshan, China. It tells a touching story about love, family, and keeping promises. The main character is Grandma Ye Shurou. She waited for her husband for 50 years after he went to Nanyang (Southeast Asia) to find work. But her husband never came back. Her grandson, Xiaowei, owes money to others. He runs away to Thailand. While there, he also wants to learn about his grandfather. But he finds out a big secret: the person who wrote letters and sent money to Grandma all her life was not her husband. It was a stranger named Xie Nanzhi. In the old days, many people from Chaoshan went to Nanyang to work. They sent letters and money home called Qiaopi. These letters were full of love and care for their families. In 2013, Qiaopi was added to the UNESCO Memory of the World Register (世界记忆名录) because it shows the deep love and duty Chinese people have for their families and homeland. Xie Nanzhi was thankful to Grandma’s husband. After he died, she kept writing letters and sending money to help Grandma’s family. She did this for many years. The movie shows us the hard life of Chinese people overseas. It also tells us the spirit of Chaoshan people: hard-working, kind, and loving their hometown and country. The most important words from Grandma are: “A person should be full of love and duty.” 1．What does the movie Dear You talk about? 2．Who sent letters and money to Grandma Ye Shurou all her life? 3．When was Qiaopi added to the UNESCO Memory of the World Register? 4．Why did Xie Nanzhi keep helping Grandma’s family? 5．What can you learn from this film? Passage 3 Papermaking is one of ancient China’s “four great inventions”, and Xuan paper shows its highest level. First created in the Tang Dynasty, this special paper is made from two natural materials: the bark of blue sandalwood trees (青檀皮) and straw from Shatian rice. It takes over 100 steps and up to three years to make the paper. This long process ensures its high quality. Xuan paper has many amazing qualities. Many artists consider it the best choice for their works. Its surface is as smooth and shiny as jade (玉), but it is stronger than silk. Besides, the way it takes in ink and its lasting colours make it perfect for Chinese calligraphy and painting. It allows the ink to spread gently through its fibres (纤维). Even more impressively, it can last for centuries without fading (变淡). For many years, Xuan paper factories in China have kept their traditional craft skills alive by making Xuan paper completely by hand. Skilled workers follow 108 traditional steps. The steps have been passed down through generations. Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory used to be the biggest Xuan paper factory in China. Most of its Xuan paper was sold to Japan. But times have changed. Xuan paper is less popular abroad. Now exports (出口) cover less than 10% of the factory’s sales. One reason is that the market in Japan became smaller as its economy (经济) slowed down, so people there couldn’t afford as much Xuan paper. Another reason is that the factory didn’t have good ways to sell the paper abroad. To protect this ancient craft, the factory is trying two new ways to improve Xuan paper sales. It believes that these changes will also help more people around the world discover Xuan paper’s beauty. 1．How many natural materials is Xuan paper made from? 2．Is Xuan paper stronger than silk? 3．How do China’s Xuan paper factories keep their traditional craft skills alive? 4．Which country used to be the biggest market for Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory? 5．What new ways may the factory try to sell more Xuan paper?   Passage 4 How much work would it take to build a 1,200-square-meter wooden house with three floors and two towers? What if the building is built without a nail or even a blueprint (蓝图)? Dong ethnic grandpa Shi Shanzhang recently amazed Chinese people when several videos showed him building a wooden house without blueprints. Many now call the woodworking expert a“living Lu Ban”. But Shi’s journey began with a terrible event. In 1974, a fire swept through Gaopei Village in Guangxi, destroying (毁坏) hundreds of wooden homes. With only one skilled house builder in the area, rebuilding was really slow. Shi, then in his early twenties, wanted very much to help rebuild his village. He began watching building work at different places during the day. At night, he would “pile up timber (堆木材)” in his mind. By the late 1980s, Shi felt ready to build his own house. He cut, polished (抛光) and moved every piece of timber himself. Now, the house is still his proudest work. Ever since, villagers have come to Shi to have their homes built. He has built about two-thirds of all the houses now standing in Gaopei Village. Shi has a special way of building. He never draws blueprints. Instead, he listens to the owner and comes up with a 3D model of the house in his mind. And he makes all parts fit perfectly without nails or glue. Last year, Shi began building a new house for himself. His son showed the process online. The videos drew tens of thousands of people's attention. Traditional Dong wooden buildings are listed as a national intangible cultural heritage. Shi, now 76, is an important person who keeps this skill alive. 1．What event drove Shi Shanzhang to learn woodworking? 2．How did Shi Shanzhang learn building skills before building his first house? 3．If there are 300 houses in Gaopei Village, about how many were built by Shi Shanzhang according to the passage? 4．What are the special features (特点) of Shi Shanzhang's way of building? 5．What can teenagers do to keep such traditional skills alive? Passage 5 Several months ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s 6-year-old son X was seen wearing a traditional tiger hat from Shibadong Village in Xiangxi, Hunan Province, and it quickly became famous worldwide. This special tiger hat features Miao embroidery (以苗绣为特色), an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) hidden deep in the Wuling Mountains. The tiger hat is partly embroidered and partly handmade. The dog-tooth stitch (针脚) on the brim (帽檐) is a traditional design of Miao embroidery. In Miao culture, dog teeth are believed to keep away evil spirits (恶魔) and protect the weak. So, these simple stitches carry mothers’ deepest wishes for their children to stay safe and healthy. The tiger hat didn’t become popular by accident. In recent years, Shibadong Village has been mixing old traditions, creative designs, and tourism. This has helped bring Miao embroidery from the mountains to the world. So far, the Shibadong Miao Embroidery Rural Revitalization Demonstration Base has offered jobs to over 500 women in eight nearby villages. Many of them used to work in big cities. Now, they have come back home to work there. The tiger hat really shows how intangible cultural heritage can drive rural revitalization. It proves that the more rooted a culture is in its own tradition, the more it can speak to the world. 1．Who made the tiger hat from Shibadong Village famous worldwide? 2．What do dog-tooth stitches on the brim of the tiger hat carry in Miao culture? 3．How has Shibadong Village helped bring Miao embroidery to the world? 4．According to the last paragraph, how can a culture win more people all over the world? 5．Would you like to buy such a tiger hat? Why or why not? 话题4 榜样精神 （共4篇） Passage 1 Wu Guangchao is a famous village doctor in Meitang, Zhejiang. For nearly 60 years, he has been helping people with their health problems. Villagers trust him and tell stories of his kindness (善良). “When I had stomachaches at night, my parents would knock on Uncle Wu’s door, and he would come right away,” said Wu Liuxian, one of the many patients. Wu keeps coins given by his patients in an old box in his little clinic (诊所). Since 1983, he has charged (收费) just 1 yuan for each medical treatment (治疗). This price has not changed in many years. Whether it’s a check-up or a simple treatment, the cost remains the same. Many villagers prefer to pay in cash, so the box is still in use. A record book filled with notes about each villager’s health is next to the old box. He knows the medical histories of all his patients by heart, and it helps him provide the best care possible. Recently, Wu’s story has spread far and wide. Many people come a long way to see him. “I can’t turn anyone away, but it’s a lot to deal with,” he says. He has also received many messages and phone calls for medical advice. People often call him “an amazing doctor”. Wu, however, sees himself as just an ordinary person doing his job. His kindness and care have won the hearts of all the villagers. 1．How long has Wu Guangchao been helping people with their health problems? 2．What does Wu keep in the old box in his little clinic? 3．How much has Wu charged for each medical treatment since 1983? 4．Where is Wu’s record book? 5．Why did Wu win the hearts of all the villagers? Passage 2 In modern Chinese cultural history, there are many dedicated translators who devote their lives to spreading advanced ideas and excellent culture. Among them, a famous translator made great contributions to cultural communication in the early 20th century. He worked in extremely tough conditions. Without professional study rooms and advanced tools, he could only rely on old books and handwritten notes. Extreme weather conditions never stopped his study and translation work. He stuck to his translation task day and night, aiming to introduce advanced ideological achievements to Chinese youth. He was so concentrated on his translation career that he often ignored daily life trivialities. He spent all his spare time sorting out foreign materials, modifying translation sentences and polishing words. He insisted on accurate and rigorous translation, refusing perfunctory work. For him, spreading progressive ideas and inheriting excellent culture was the most meaningful thing in his life. His firm belief in cultural inheritance supported him to finish countless difficult translation tasks. His translation works had a far-reaching influence on society. They helped countless young people accept new ideas, broaden their horizons and pursue progress. His spirit of dedication, rigorousness and persistence still inspires modern teenagers to stick to their ideals and serve society. 根据语篇内容，回答下列问题。(不超过8个词) 1．What was the translator’s main contribution? 2．How were his working conditions? 3．Why did he ignore daily trivialities? 4．What supported him to finish tough tasks? 5．What spirit can we learn from him? Passage 3 One day, a young boy named Zhang Liang was walking along a bridge. He saw an old man sitting there. One of the old man’s shoes was left under the bridge. “Go over there and get my shoe, young boy!" the old man ordered. Zhang Liang felt surprised, but he still picked it up for the old man. The old man said, “Five days later, please come to meet me at the bridge early in the morning.” Five days later, Zhang Liang went there as promised, but the old man came there before him. The old man got angry about his lazy habit. Zhang Liang was asked to come again. The next day, Zhang Liang arrived earlier than before, but the old man was still before him. The old man became much angrier and asked him to get there again the next morning. This time, Zhang Liang arrived at the bridge late at night. He spent the whole night there. When the old man came the next early morning, he was happy to find Zhang Liang there earlier than him. The old man nodded with a smile and gave Zhang Liang a valuable book. Zhang Liang read the book carefully day and night and learned many skills from it. Many years later, he became a wise general (将军) and made great achievements. 1．Did Zhang Liang get one of the old man’s shoes under the bridge? 2．Who came to the bridge first five days later? 3．Why was the old man angry with Zhang Liang? 4．What did the old man give Zhang Liang at last? 5．What can we learn from Zhang Liang? Passage 4 A boy called Kenny moved to countryside from a large city. He wanted to buy a donkey (驴子) from a farmer. It cost him 100 dollars. The farmer agreed to bring the donkey the next day. The next day, the farmer came and said, “Sorry, the donkey died.” “OK,” he said. “Please give the money back to me.” “But I spent all the money!” “Then give me the donkey,” Kenny said. The farmer wondered, “Why do you want the dead donkey!” “I can use it as a prize in a draw lot (抽奖).” The farmer shouted, “No one wants a dead donkey! You are crazy(疯狂的).” Kenny answered, “Don’t worry! I won’t tell them the donkey is dead.” A few months later, the farmer met Kenny. “How about the dead donkey?” he asked. Kenny said, “Well, I held a lucky draw lot, and I told them the prize was a donkey. I sold 500 tickets, 2 dollars each. So I got 908 dollars.” The farmer was very much surprised. “Why didn’t anyone say No?” Kenny answered, “Only the winner said No, so I gave the money that he bought the tickets to him.” Many years later, when Kenny grew up, he became the chief (领导) of Anther (安然公司).(No more than 5 words) 1．Why couldn’t the farmer return the money to Kenny? 2．What did Kenny use the dead donkey as? 3．How many people said “No” when Kenny sold the tickets? 4．How much money did Kenny earn (赚) ? 5．What do you think of Kenny? 本文讲述中国航天员王亚平追逐飞天梦想的成长历程。历经艰苦训练，她两次出征太空，完成太空授课，实现中国女性太空行走的突破。引导学生感悟航天精神，懂得梦想的价值，学习坚持不懈、勇于挑战自我的品质，树立远大理想。 【新情境・逐梦星辰，奔赴浩瀚太空】Wang Yaping is a Chinese astronaut. She was born in Shandong Province in 1980. As a child, she loved sports and dreamed of flying. In 1997, she joined the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and became a pilot. In 2010, Wang Yaping was chosen to be an astronaut. She trained hard for many years. In 2013, she flew into space for the first time on the Shenzhou-10 mission. During this mission, she gave a science lesson to students on Earth from space. Millions of students watched and were inspired. In 2021, Wang Yaping went to space again on the Shenzhou-13 mission. This time, she stayed in space for six months. She became the first Chinese woman to walk in space. She also gave another science lesson from the Tiangong space station. Wang Yaping once said, “Dreams are like stars. You may never touch them, but if you follow them, they will lead you to a bright future.” Her story encourages many young people, especially girls, to pursue their dreams. 1．When and where was Wang Yaping born? 2．What did Wang Yaping do before she became an astronaut? 3．What did Wang Yaping do during the Shenzhou-10 mission? 4．What record did Wang Yaping set during the Shenzhou-13 mission? 5．Why does Wang Yaping’s story encourage young people? 2 / 24 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 考前押题04 阅读表达4大常考话题 话题1 身心健康 话题2人际交往（常考点） 话题3 艺术审美 话题4 榜样精神 话题1 身心健康（共5篇） Passage 1 Now, more and more young people in China follow traditional Chinese-style activities to stay healthy, such as drinking tea, soaking their feet in hot water, and practising baduanjin, because they find that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) culture fits well with modern scientific health ideas. This phenomenon (现象) also shows that they are becoming interested in a slow life. Chinese baduanjin dates back to the Song Dynasty, and young people pick it up again now. Every weekend, many young people go to Beijing’s Baiyun Temple to take baduanjin classes. The spots (报名名额) are usually fully booked (预订) within only a minute. So why has baduanjin become so popular among young people? To begin with, many young people say they sleep better, have less neck and shoulder pain, and their hands and feet are no longer cold in winter after they practise baduanjin. Next, young people spend a lot of time on their phones in their free time now and seldom go outdoors. According to the ancient book The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Medicine, if people stay indoors for a long time, their energy will disappear. Therefore, people need to go outside to get some energy.

As a result, they don’t have an interest in sports. Enthusiasm (热情) for sports is of great importance. Young people should treat it as part of education. On the one hand, as for school, increasing teenagers’ enthusiasm for sports is a good way to help teenagers keep a healthy lifestyle. In school, students are forced (强迫) to take exercise in the PE class by teachers. They need to join certain activities. In this way, students lead a healthy lifestyle, and they won’t get sick easily. But after they leave school, no one forces them to do so, so they are too lazy to take exercise. As a result, their bodies get weaker. On the other hand, the enthusiasm for sports is helpful for students to increase their sense of teamwork. As we know, most sports need more than one person to play, like badminton and table tennis. These sports need two or more people. When students are playing badminton, they need to cooperate (合作) so that they can defeat (战胜) others. If they just keep an eye on themselves, the game can’t be played well. Doing these sports will bring students a sense of teamwork, which is important for their career (生涯). Teenagers should keep the habit of taking exercise. If they have enthusiasm for sports, taking exercise is a kind of happiness to them. 1．Who forces (迫使) students to take exercise in the school?

Unlike badminton, which uses a racket, jianzi is played using only the feet, knees, chest, or head to keep a weighted shuttlecock in the air. It is simple, fun, and requires no expensive equipment. In recent years, jianzi has entered many schools as part of PE classes. In a primary school in Guangzhou, students have jianzi lessons twice a week. At first, many students found it difficult to control the shuttlecock. However, with practice, they improved quickly. “Jianzi helps me relax after long hours of study,” said Li Ming, a sixth-grade student. “It also improves my balance and concentration.” The school often holds jianzi competitions. During breaks, students gather on the playground to kick jianzi together. This activity not only strengthens their bodies but also helps them build friendships. Teachers notice that students who play jianzi regularly are more active and have better communication skills. Furthermore, jianzi is becoming popular worldwide. There are now international jianzi competitions, attracting players from Europe, Asia, and America. It serves as a cultural bridge, introducing Chinese traditions to the world.

It is said that if you take care of each part of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should also be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in the first place. There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not having enough food, genes (基因) and aging (老化). Using your eyes for too long is also a cause of having poor eyesight. If you use your eyes a lot, it is best to take a break every once in a while. Something dirty can cause redness and it will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes too. If this happens, you’d better clean your eyes with cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, you can wear sunglasses when the sun shines a lot. Eating healthy food is good for your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food that has these vitamins. If a person exercises often and eats the right kinds of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time. All the above are natural ways to help us keep our eyes healthy.

However, many modern teenagers spend too much time on phones and computers, and they seldom do sports. This bad habit brings many problems to their health and study. A recent survey shows that over 60% of middle school students don’t have enough daily exercise. They prefer to stay indoors to play online games or watch videos after finishing homework. As a result, many students are in poor health. Some students get tired easily when studying, and some even have eye problems. Doing sports can solve these problems. First, outdoor sports can protect our eyes and improve our physical condition. Second, sports can reduce our study pressure and make us relaxed. Third, taking part in team sports can improve our social skills and make us more outgoing. Experts suggest that students should spend at least 30 minutes doing sports every day.

No one can stay away from it. However, conflict does not always lead to bad results. When we use proper skills, it can help us understand other people better. When a conflict comes, many people want to win the argument. They spend lots of time proving themselves right and others wrong. This is a wrong idea. The purpose of dealing with conflict is not winning, but solving the problem and keeping good relationships. Before discussion, calm yourself down. High‑emotion moments are not suitable for meaningful talks. When you speak, use “I” statements. Talk about your own feelings instead of pointing out others’ mistakes. While listening, keep an open mind. Try to catch the real thoughts behind other people’s words. Sometimes you cannot reach an agreement. In this situation, you can accept the differences. You do not have to make everyone think exactly the same as you. Respect for others is also an important skill in dealing with conflict. 1．Can people completely stay away from conflict? 2．What is the wrong idea many people have when facing conflict? 3．What is the real purpose of dealing with conflict? 4．What kind of moments are not fit for meaningful discussion? 5．What can we do if we fail to reach an agreement? 【答案】1．No, they can’t. 2．They want to win the argument and prove themselves right and others wrong. 3．Solving the problem and keeping good relationships. 4．High‑emotion moments. 5．We can accept the differences and respect others. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍冲突在生活中无处不在，并且讲解了正确处理冲突的方法与理念。 【详解】1．根据文章第1段“Conflict is everywhere in human life.

We can send text messages, make video calls, post on social media, and send emails. However, has digital communication made our relationships better or worse? On the one hand, digital communication has many advantages. It allows us to stay in touch with friends and family who live far away. It is fast and convenient. We can share news and photos instantly. On the other hand, it also has some disadvantages. When we communicate online, we cannot see the other person’s facial expressions or hear their tone of voice. This can lead to misunderstandings. Moreover, some people spend so much time on their phones that they forget to communicate face to face with the people around them. Experts suggest that we should find a balance.

However, friendship is an important part of growing up, and there are many ways to build meaningful connections with others. One of the best ways to make friends is to join in activities that interest you. Whether it’s a sports team, a music club, or an art class, being in a group with shared interests gives you a natural topic to talk about. When you do what you love, you’ll meet people who enjoy the same things, and conversations will feel much easier. Another important tip is to be a good listener. When someone is talking to you, give them your full attention. Ask follow-up questions to show that you care about what they’re saying. People appreciate those who listen carefully, and they will be more willing to open up to you in return. Don’t be afraid to take the first step. Smile and say hello to someone new every day. A simple greeting can be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. You don’t have to be perfect or funny—just be yourself. Authenticity (真实性) is always more attractive than trying to be someone you’re not. Lastly, be patient. True friendships take time to develop. Don’t expect to have a best friend after one conversation. Keep showing up, keep being kind, and keep making small efforts. Over time, those small efforts will grow into lasting friendships. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1．What is one of the best ways to make friends according to the passage? 2．Why should we be a good listener when talking with others? 3．What does the writer advise us to do every day? 4．How long does it take to develop true friendships? 5．Do you think joining a club is helpful for making friends?

If you travel around China, you’ll find images of dragons almost everywhere, especially in ancient palaces and temples. Some of them are more than 3,500 years old. Countless Chinese artists have tried their hand at painting the dragon. One of them was Chen Rong, a great painter in the Southern Song Dynasty. He is widely considered the best of the dragon painters. His Nine Dragons has been praised as one of the greatest paintings of the Chinese dragon. Chen was born in Fujian in 1200. He once served as the mayor (太守) of Putian in his home province. He also worked for the government in Hangzhou at one point. His political career wasn’t very successful. However, he was widely respected for his talent in poetry, calligraphy and painting. According to historical records, Chen usually painted after drinking a lot of wine. After getting drunk, he would shout, tear off his scarf, dip it in ink and spill the ink madly on xuanzhi. After that, the painter would use brushes to paint some details to finish his work. Chen’s inscription(题词) on Nine Dragons shows that he created it when he was completely drunk. Nine Dragons shows nine energetic dragons rolling, swimming and dancing among clouds, mist, waves, fires and cliffs. There are both crazy drops of ink and very fine lines. They show both the painter’s feeling of great disappointment with his life and his great skills with the brush. Nine Dragons was once treasured at court. Many inscriptions by the Qianlong Emperor praised it highly. It’s said that the emperor liked the painting so much that he ordered a court painter to make a copy of it. 1．In which dynasty was Chen Rong born? 2．According to the article, what was Chen widely respected for? 3．What was special about Chen Rong when he created Nine Dragons? 4．What did the Qianlong Emperor think of Nine Dragons? 5．Would you like to go to see Nine Dragons with your own eyes?

She waited for her husband for 50 years after he went to Nanyang (Southeast Asia) to find work. But her husband never came back. Her grandson, Xiaowei, owes money to others. He runs away to Thailand. While there, he also wants to learn about his grandfather. But he finds out a big secret: the person who wrote letters and sent money to Grandma all her life was not her husband.

First created in the Tang Dynasty, this special paper is made from two natural materials: the bark of blue sandalwood trees (青檀皮) and straw from Shatian rice. It takes over 100 steps and up to three years to make the paper. This long process ensures its high quality. Xuan paper has many amazing qualities. Many artists consider it the best choice for their works. Its surface is as smooth and shiny as jade (玉), but it is stronger than silk. Besides, the way it takes in ink and its lasting colours make it perfect for Chinese calligraphy and painting. It allows the ink to spread gently through its fibres (纤维). Even more impressively, it can last for centuries without fading (变淡). For many years, Xuan paper factories in China have kept their traditional craft skills alive by making Xuan paper completely by hand. Skilled workers follow 108 traditional steps. The steps have been passed down through generations. Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory used to be the biggest Xuan paper factory in China. Most of its Xuan paper was sold to Japan. But times have changed. Xuan paper is less popular abroad. Now exports (出口) cover less than 10% of the factory’s sales. One reason is that the market in Japan became smaller as its economy (经济) slowed down, so people there couldn’t afford as much Xuan paper. Another reason is that the factory didn’t have good ways to sell the paper abroad. To protect this ancient craft, the factory is trying two new ways to improve Xuan paper sales. It believes that these changes will also help more people around the world discover Xuan paper’s beauty. 1．How many natural materials is Xuan paper made from? 2．Is Xuan paper stronger than silk? 3．How do China’s Xuan paper factories keep their traditional craft skills alive? 4．Which country used to be the biggest market for Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory? 5．What new ways may the factory try to sell more Xuan paper?   【答案】1．Two (natural materials). 2．Yes./Yes, it is. 3．By making Xuan paper completely by hand. 4．Japan. 5．Looking for/Finding new markets (abroad) and selling online/online sales. 【导语】本文主要介绍了宣纸是中国古代的伟大发明之一，品质出众，有着复杂的手工制作工序。泾县宣纸厂的宣纸在海外市场萎缩，工厂尝试新方案推广宣纸，保护这项传统技艺。 【详解】1．第一段“this special paper is made from two natural materials”已点明宣纸的天然材料种类数量，原文信息直接提取即可。 2．第二段“it is stronger than silk”已点明宣纸比丝绸更坚固，故作肯定回答。 3．第三段“Xuan paper factories in China have kept their traditional craft skills alive by making Xuan paper completely by hand”介绍了中国的宣纸工厂传承并保留传统工艺的方法，答案几乎是原文引述。 4．第三段“Most of its Xuan paper was sold to Japan.”已点明泾县宣纸厂曾经最大的海外市场，原文信息直接提取即可。 5．本题是开放性试题，答案不唯一。根据第三段“One reason is that the market in Japan became smaller… Another reason is that the factory didn’t have good ways to sell the paper abroad.”可知，市场规模小以及缺乏有效的销售渠道是宣纸销售额低的主要原因，因此可以结合这两点原因合理作答，言之有理且不超过8个单词即可。 Passage 4 How much work would it take to build a 1,200-square-meter wooden house with three floors and two towers? What if the building is built without a nail or even a blueprint (蓝图)? Dong ethnic grandpa Shi Shanzhang recently amazed Chinese people when several videos showed him building a wooden house without blueprints. Many now call the woodworking expert a“living Lu Ban”. But Shi’s journey began with a terrible event. In 1974, a fire swept through Gaopei Village in Guangxi, destroying (毁坏) hundreds of wooden homes. With only one skilled house builder in the area, rebuilding was really slow. Shi, then in his early twenties, wanted very much to help rebuild his village. He began watching building work at different places during the day. At night, he would “pile up timber (堆木材)” in his mind. By the late 1980s, Shi felt ready to build his own house. He cut, polished (抛光) and moved every piece of timber himself. Now, the house is still his proudest work. Ever since, villagers have come to Shi to have their homes built. He has built about two-thirds of all the houses now standing in Gaopei Village. Shi has a special way of building. He never draws blueprints. Instead, he listens to the owner and comes up with a 3D model of the house in his mind. And he makes all parts fit perfectly without nails or glue. Last year, Shi began building a new house for himself. His son showed the process online. The videos drew tens of thousands of people's attention. Traditional Dong wooden buildings are listed as a national intangible cultural heritage. Shi, now 76, is an important person who keeps this skill alive. 1．What event drove Shi Shanzhang to learn woodworking? 2．How did Shi Shanzhang learn building skills before building his first house? 3．If there are 300 houses in Gaopei Village, about how many were built by Shi Shanzhang according to the passage? 4．What are the special features (特点) of Shi Shanzhang's way of building? 5．What can teenagers do to keep such traditional skills alive? 【答案】1．A fire destroyed hundreds of wooden homes in his village. 2．By watching building work and imagining timber piles in mind. 3．About two hundred/ 200. 4．No blueprints, nails, or glue used. 5．They can use the Internet to share traditional skills. (答案不唯一，合理即可) 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了侗族爷爷石善章在没有图纸和钉子的情况下建造木屋的精湛技艺，以及他传承传统木工技能的故事。 【详解】1．根据文章第3段“In 1974, a fire swept through Gaopei Village in Guangxi, destroying hundreds of wooden homes.（1974 年，一场大火席卷了广西高培村，摧毁了数百座木屋。）”可推知结论是火灾促使他学习木工。 2．根据文章第4段“He began watching building work at different places during the day. At night, he would'pile up timber'in his mind.（他白天开始在不同地方观看建筑工作。晚上，他会在脑海里“堆木材”。）”可推知结论是他通过观察和想象来学习。 3．根据文章第6段“He has built about two-thirds of all the houses now standing in Gaopei Village.（他现在建造了高培村现存房屋的大约三分之二。）”可推知结论是300的三分之二约为200座。 4．根据文章第7段“He never draws blueprints... And he makes all parts fit perfectly without nails or glue.（他从不画蓝图……而且他让所有部件完美契合，不用钉子或胶水。）”可推知结论是其建筑特点是无图纸、无钉无胶。 5．本题为开放性试题，围绕青少年学习、宣传传统技艺作答，言之有理即可。可以根据文章最后一段“Shi, now 76, is an important person who keeps this skill alive.（现年76岁的石是使这项技能得以延续的重要人物。）”提取青少年应学习并传播传统技能以使其延续。 Passage 5 Several months ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s 6-year-old son X was seen wearing a traditional tiger hat from Shibadong Village in Xiangxi, Hunan Province, and it quickly became famous worldwide. This special tiger hat features Miao embroidery (以苗绣为特色), an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) hidden deep in the Wuling Mountains. The tiger hat is partly embroidered and partly handmade. The dog-tooth stitch (针脚) on the brim (帽檐) is a traditional design of Miao embroidery. In Miao culture, dog teeth are believed to keep away evil spirits (恶魔) and protect the weak. So, these simple stitches carry mothers’ deepest wishes for their children to stay safe and healthy. The tiger hat didn’t become popular by accident. In recent years, Shibadong Village has been mixing old traditions, creative designs, and tourism. This has helped bring Miao embroidery from the mountains to the world. So far, the Shibadong Miao Embroidery Rural Revitalization Demonstration Base has offered jobs to over 500 women in eight nearby villages. Many of them used to work in big cities. Now, they have come back home to work there. The tiger hat really shows how intangible cultural heritage can drive rural revitalization. It proves that the more rooted a culture is in its own tradition, the more it can speak to the world. 1．Who made the tiger hat from Shibadong Village famous worldwide? 2．What do dog-tooth stitches on the brim of the tiger hat carry in Miao culture? 3．How has Shibadong Village helped bring Miao embroidery to the world? 4．According to the last paragraph, how can a culture win more people all over the world? 5．Would you like to buy such a tiger hat? Why or why not? 【答案】1．Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s 6-year-old son X. 2.They carry mothers’ deepest wishes for their children to stay safe and healthy. 3.By mixing old traditions, creative designs, and tourism. 4.The more rooted a culture is in its own tradition, the more it can speak to the world. 5.Yes, I would. Because it carries mothers’ deepest wishes for children and features Miao embroidery.（答案不唯一） 【导语】本文主要介绍了湖南省十八洞村的传统苗绣老虎帽，由于特斯拉CEO马斯克的儿子佩戴而走红全世界。文章探讨了老虎帽的文化内涵以及它如何通过融合传统与创新来推动乡村振兴。 【详解】1．根据第一段第一句“…Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s 6-year-old son X was seen wearing a traditional tiger hat…and it quickly became famous worldwide.”，直接提取关键人物作答。 2．根据第二段最后一句“So, these simple stitches carry mothers’ deepest wishes for their children to stay safe and healthy.”，直接提取对应内容。 3．根据第三段第一、二句“…Shibadong Village has been mixing old traditions, creative designs, and tourism.
