‘Why is the sky blue?’ ‘Why do we add sugar to food?’ ‘Why…?’
Everyone knew 10-year-old Ananya as ‘the question girl’.
‘Ananya, stop asking so many questions!’ her teacher Mrs Sharma would say. ‘Just accept things as they are,’ her grandmother told her. ‘She talks too much,’ her classmates avoided her.
Ananya felt lonely. Maybe everyone was right. Maybe asking questions was bad. But Ananya couldn’t help it. She wanted to understand everything.
One day, Mr Patel, a new science teacher, joined her school. In his first class, Ananya raised her hand, ‘Why do birds fly south?’ The class complained, ‘Not again!’ But Mr Patel smiled, ‘That’s an excellent question! Who else wants to know why?’ Ananya blinked (眨眼) in surprise. No teacher had ever said that before!
After class, Mr Patel called Ananya aside. ‘Don’t ever stop asking questions,’ he said. ‘Do you know what scientists do all day? They ask “why”. Every scientist was once a curious child.’ For the first time, Ananya didn’t feel annoyed. She felt special.
Mr Patel taught Ananya to find answers herself. ‘When you have a question, first try to find the answer. Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask.’
Ananya started visiting the library. She read books about science and nature. She started a ‘Question Notebook’.
Her questions became better. Instead of ‘Why is the sky blue?’ she asked ‘Why does the sky’s color change during sunrise?’ Teachers noticed. Ananya’s questions now sparked (引发) interesting discussions.
When Ananya was twelve, she had a question: ‘Why do some street dogs sleep on the road at night?’ She studied that for three months. Then she created a project showing temperature differences. It won first prize at school, then district (区), then national level!
Today, Ananya is 24 and studies environmental science. She still asks ‘why’ all the time. She visits schools, talking to children. ‘Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious,’ she tells them.

A. Because he punished her for interrupting the class.
B. Because he asked her to leave the school.
C. Because no teacher had ever encouraged her questions before.
D. Because he told her that scientists never ask ‘why’.
54. What advice did Mr Patel give Ananya to help her find answers?
A. She should only ask her grandmother for help.
B. She should stop asking questions and just listen.
C. She should try to find the answer herself first by reading or observing.
D. She should wait for the teacher to give her the answer directly.
55. How did Ananya’s questions change after she started using her ‘Question Notebook’?
A. She asked fewer questions than before.

People have five senses. We have a sense of sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste. Believe it or not, your sense of smell is very important. Our nose tells us about our 58 .

The narrow old bookstore had stood on the corner for forty years. Lisa passed it every day on her way home from school, yet she never stepped inside. She preferred e-books, believing physical books took up too much space and lacked (缺乏) convenience. One rainy afternoon, dark clouds rolled in suddenly and heavy rain poured down without warning, forcing her to run into the small shop.
The shop was filled with the smell of aged paper. Tall wooden bookshelves reached toward the ceiling (天花板), packed tightly with books from different periods. Light came in softly through the windows, creating a peaceful atmosphere. An elderly man ran the store alone. Instead of greeting her warmly, he just nodded and returned to sorting piles of books. Lisa wandered casually, not planning to buy anything. She pulled a worn travel journal (日志) from the shelf, whose former owner had filled the pages with notes, small sketches (草图) and personal feelings about journeys across the country.
Curious, Lisa started a short conversation with the owner. He told her that many second-hand books carried hidden stories left by previous readers. He refused several high offers from property developers (地产开发商) who hoped to turn the site into a popular coffee shop. To Lisa’s surprise, he did not earn much money from the business. When she asked why he kept operating the store, he said he viewed it as a bridge connecting different strangers across time.
Lisa left the bookstore with that travel journal. In the following weeks, she often returned to the shop after school. Gradually, she realized e-books offered quick reading, but second-hand printed books held unique warmth. Months later, she began bringing her own used books to share with other readers visiting the shop. She came to understand that value did not just lie in information itself, but in the human connections carried together with it.
Task 1:
68. Did Lisa like physical books at the beginning of the story?
_________________________________________________________________________________69. What made Lisa run into the small bookstore that afternoon?
_________________________________________________________________________________70. What did Lisa find inside the worn travel journal she pulled from the shelf?
_________________________________________________________________________________71. Why did the elderly owner keep running the bookstore even though he did not earn much money?
_________________________________________________________________________________72. How did Lisa’s attitude towards second-hand printed books change after she visited the store for several weeks?
_________________________________________________________________________________Task 2:
73. The elderly owner loves his bookstore, but he does not earn much money from it. If you were his friend, what two pieces of advice would you give him to help the bookstore survive while keeping its special warmth?
