I know you’ve been feeling sad lately because you’re having trouble making true friends and even had a fight with Matt last week. Don’t worry, I’m here to share some ideas with you.​ First, let’s talk about how to find real friends. True friends always care about each other. When you meet someone new, don’t be too shy to talk. Try to find out what you have in common, like hobbies or favorite novels. For example, if you both love reading Mark Twain’s novels, you can talk about the characters in the books. A good friend should be honest and hard-working, not lazy. They will listen to you and help you solve problems, not just talk loud without thinking.​ Now, about fixing your friendship with Matt. You two used to be so close, right? The fight happened by accident, so don’t be afraid to say sorry first. You can attend the school music show with him this weekend—you both like playing the flute, remember? When you talk to him, be direct but kind. Don’t focus on the difference between you two; instead, think about your similarity and the happy times you shared. Thanks to your long friendship, I believe he will forgive you soon.​ Congratulations on being brave enough to face these problems! Everyone makes mistakes, so don’t be too serious about it. If you have spare time, call me.

Passage 2 （25-26八年级上·河北保定·期中） The Double Ninth Festival, celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, is one of China’s oldest festivals. Its history dates back over 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty. Ancient people believed the number “nine” represented yang energy, so double nine meant double power. To avoid bad luck, they would climb mountains, drink chrysanthemum wine, and wear a plant called zhuyu.     Today, the festival is also famous. Since 1989, China has encouraged people to honor the elderly through community activities like preparing special cakes called “chongyang gao” or helping clean homes for older neighbors. Mountain climbing remains popular, expressing the wish for good health and long life. In 2006, the festival was added to China’s National Intangible Cultural Heritage List (中国国家非物质文化遗产名录), confirming (确认) its cultural importance. Unlike the lively Spring Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival, the Double Ninth Festival carries a quiet atmosphere (氛围). It focuses on respecting nature and valuing family connections, especially between generations (一代). As modern life speeds up, this day reminds people to slow down, appreciate the wisdom of elders, and pass traditions to the young. 1．Why did ancient people wear the plant zhuyu during the Double Ninth Festival? A．To avoid bad luck. B．To attract good luck. C．To beautify their homes. D．To make chrysanthemum wine. 2．What is the main purpose of celebrating the Double Ninth Festival today?

D．To show the Double Ninth Festival’s quiet atmosphere. 4．How does the festival help modern society according to the text? A．By encouraging fast lifestyles. B．By comparing with other holidays. C．By focusing on expensive celebrations. D．By reminding people to respect elders and traditions. Passage 3 （25-26八年级上·山西太原·期末） Dongzhi is a traditional festival in China. It is very important for Chinese people. Long ago, farmers would kill much of their animals, like cows, sheep and chickens, on this day to save food for winter. Like other festivals, people celebrate Dongzhi by eating delicious food. In North China, people always eat dumplings on that day. People eat dumplings because of an old saying. That is “eat dumplings on Dongzhi to keep ears from freezing”. However, people in South China always eat tangyuan. Many stores sell tangyuan with different tastes. Some milk tea shops even make tangyuan milk tea. It is popular with young people. Families still get together to make tangyuan, because it means family reunion. Actually, not only Chinese people celebrate Dongzhi. In North Korea, people often eat red bean porridge to celebrate Dongzhi. They believe it can keep bad luck away and help them stay healthy in winter. In a word, no matter what traditions are and how traditions change, Dongzhi is still about family love and warmth.

Some classmates say Emma’s eyes are bigger and brighter than Lily’s.​ Then, their personalities are different too. Lily is quieter than Emma. She likes reading in the library and enjoys being alone sometimes. Emma is more outgoing. She loves talking to people and always joins school activities. At parties, Emma is usually the most active one, while Lily sits and chats with a few close friends.​ Their hobbies also show big differences. Lily is better at writing than Emma.

A new study suggests that a person’s name may influence how they look when they grow up. In the study, researchers showed people photos of different faces and asked them to choose the most matching (相配的) names. People in the study could correctly match the names to the adult faces quite well. However, they found it much harder to match names to children’s faces. This suggests that as people grow older, their looks might slowly change to fit their name. The researchers also used a computer program to compare faces. It found that adults with the same name look more similar to each other than adults with different names. But this was not true for children.   ▲  The researchers think it might be because many people have the same ideas about names. For example, people might think someone named “Bob” should have a rounder and happier face. Without realizing it, a person named Bob might smile more often or choose a certain hairstyle, making his face look rounder and friendlier over time. This way, he slowly grows to look like his name. The study shows that our names might play a small but interesting part in shaping who we are even in how we look. 1．What did people find difficult to do in the study? A．To choose the right name for adults. B．To match names to children’s faces. C．To take photos of different faces. D．To give names to children. 2．What can we infer (推断) about adults from the study? A．They change their names more often. B．They don’t care about their names. C．Their faces match their names better. D．Computers can’t recognize their faces. 3．Which of the following can be put in ________ in Paragraph 4? A．Why does this happen? B．What is the final result? C．How do computers help? D．When did the study begin? 4．What does Bob probably look like? A． B． C． D． 5．Which is the best title for this passage? A．How to Choose a Good Name? B．Why Do Children Look Different? C．Do Computers Know Our Faces? D．Can Names Change Our Looks? Passage 3 （25-26八年级上·辽宁铁岭·期中） Personality and Appearance People often judge (判断) others by their appearance, but personality is more important. Appearance is what you see on the outside, like height, hair color, and clothes. Personality is what’s inside, like being kind, honest, or funny. A person may look very beautiful but have a bad personality. They might be rude or selfish (自私) which makes it hard to be friends with them. On the other hand, someone who is not very good-looking may have a great personality. They could be friendly, helpful and fun to be with, making them popular. It’s important to remember that appearance can change but personality is harder to change. We should try to get to know people before judging them. A kind heart is more valuable than a pretty face. 1．What do people often judge others by? A．Personality. B．Appearance. C．Hobbies. D．Dreams. 2．What is appearance? A．What’s inside a person. B．Kindness and honesty. C．What you see on the outside. D．Funny and friendly. 3．Why is it hard to be friends with someone with a bad personality? A．They are kind. B．They are rude or selfish.

D．A big house. 话题4 成为好的学习者（共3篇） Passage 1 （25-26八年级上·广东深圳·期中） The word “inventor” may make people think of something difficult. But in fact, anyone can be an inventor! 1 Here is how you can bring your idea to life. Find a problem to solve. 1 Will it make a daily task easier? Will it help people in a new way? Knowing this will help you guide your design. Then, start thinking of ideas that can solve the problem. 2 After you know the problem, it’s time to go online to check if anything like your idea already exists. If you find the same product online, you need a new idea. If not, you are lucky! You may have a great new idea for your invention. Make a prototype (原型) to see how it works. A prototype is a model of your final product. You can start by drawing a picture of your idea. 1 This helps you see if your idea really works. Sometimes, you may make a few different prototypes before you get it right. This is not always an easy job, but it is very interesting. 2 A．Do research to see if your idea is new. B．Remember, every great invention starts with a simple idea and a lot of hard work. C．You can also share your idea with your friends to get more new ideas. D．Then, you can try to make a simple model with things around your house. E．If you have a new idea for a product, you can make it real. F．Think about what problem your invention will work out. Passage 2 （25-26八年级上·河南商丘·期中） I started learning Spanish. At first, it felt a bit scary. There were so many new words and strange accents (口音). But as I learned more phrases, I felt more confident (自信的). It wasn’t just about speaking a new language. It was about proving to myself that I could do something that seemed impossible before. The best part is meeting new people. Learning a language turns strangers into friends. You can join in conversations, understand jokes and really fit in. Language connects us in ways that books can’t. Studies say that learning a second language can improve memory and problem-solving ability. I can really feel the difference. Switching (转换) between English and Spanish made me think differently about language. I’m more careful with words and pay more attention when I listen. Of course, it’s not always easy. Sometimes, I forget a word I learned the day before, or I don’t understand what someone is saying. But I’ve learned that every mistake means I’m trying, and trying is learning. Learning a language is hard work, but it can also be fun. With apps like Duolingo, practicing can be fun and something to look forward to, not a chore. Learning a language is also about having a positive attitude. It’s a lesson in being open to other cultures. Maybe one day you’ll be ordering tacos in Mexico City. 1．How did the writer feel at the beginning of learning Spanish? A．Scared. B．Confident. C．Excited. D．Relaxed. 2．What is the best part of learning Spanish for the writer? A．Learning new phrases. B．Meeting new people. C．Using apps like Duolingo. D．Understanding Spanish books. 3．What does the writer think of mistakes in language learning? A．They are useless. B．They mean failure. C．They show one is trying. D．They should be avoided. 4．Which of the following can take the place of “a chore” in Paragraph 4? A．A difficult test. B．A useful skill. C．A funny game. D．A boring task. 5．What can we infer from the last paragraph of the passage? A．The writer plans to move to Mexico City soon. B．Learning a language is only about grammar and words. C．A positive attitude is helpful in learning a language. D．The writer is learning Spanish to prepare for his future travel. Passage 3 （25-26八年级上·河北沧州·期中） How to Be a Good Learner Being a good learner is not just about getting good grades. It’s about developing effective learning habits and skills that will help you succeed in the long run. Here are some tips to become a better learner: First, set clear goals. Before you start studying, know what you want to achieve. For example, instead of saying “I want to study English”, say “I want to memorize 20 new words and practice speaking for 15 minutes today”. Clear goals help you stay focused and motivated. Second, manage your time wisely. Make a study schedule and stick to it. Don’t leave all your work until the last minute. For example, if you have a test next week, study a little every day instead of cramming the night before. This way, you can learn better and reduce stress. Third, use different learning methods. Everyone learns differently. Some people learn by reading, some by listening, and others by doing. Try to use a mix of methods. For example, when learning a new subject, you can read textbooks, watch educational videos, and do exercises. This will help you understand the knowledge better. Fourth, ask for help when you need it. Don’t be afraid to ask your teachers, classmates, or parents for help if you don’t understand something. Asking questions is a sign of active learning, not weakness. Your teachers are always willing to help you, and your classmates may have different ways to explain the problem. Finally, review regularly. After learning something new, review it within 24 hours. This helps you remember the knowledge for a long time. You can review by making notes, doing practice questions, or explaining the knowledge to someone else. By following these tips, you can become a good learner and achieve your academic goals. Remember, learning is a lifelong journey, and the earlier you develop good habits, the better. 1．How many tips are mentioned in the passage? A．Four B．Five C．Six D．Seven 2．What does the underlined word “cramming” mean? A．突击学习 B．认真复习 C．制定计划 D．提前准备 3．Why should we use different learning methods? A．Because it’s fun to try new methods B．Because everyone learns differently C．Because teachers ask us to do so D．Because it’s required by schools 4．Which of the following is a clear goal? A．I want to study math. B．I want to get good grades. C．I want to finish 10 math exercises and understand the formulas today. D．I want to learn English well. 5．What’s the best title for the passage? A．How to Set Goals B．How to Manage Time C．How to Become a Good Learner D．How to Ask for Help 本文是一篇说明文。引用谚语“熟能生巧”，通过举例论证，告诉我们坚持练习才能把事情做好。 An old Chinese saying goes: “Practice makes perfect.” It means if you keep practising something again and again, you will become very good at it. This old saying tells us a simple truth. No one can learn a new skill well in a short time. Many students think they can learn English well quickly. But in fact, good English needs lots of practice. You need to read, listen and speak every day. The story of Wang Xizhi is a great example. He was a famous calligrapher in ancient China. He loved writing so much that he practised writing every day. He washed his writing brushes in the pond near his house. Slowly, the clean pond turned black. After years of hard practice, he became one of the greatest writers in history. This saying is not only for study. It works for everything. If you want to play basketball well, you must practise shooting. If you want to play the piano well, you need to practise every day. Nothing can be done well without lots of practice. So don’t give up easily. Keep practising, and you will make great progress. 1．What does the old saying “Practice makes perfect” mean? A．We must be perfect from the start. B．Practising often helps us do things well. C．Only perfect people need to practice. D．We can learn everything quickly. 2．What was Wang Xizhi good at? A．Playing basketball. B．Playing the piano. C．Writing calligraphy. D．Speaking English. 3．Why did the pond turn black? A．Because Wang Xizhi put black ink into it. B．Because Wang Xizhi washed his writing brushes there every day. C．Because there was much black mud in the pond. D．Because many people threw rubbish into the pond. 4．Which of the following is TRUE? A．We can learn English well in a few days. B．The saying only works for school study. C．Wang Xizhi became famous after long-time practice. D．We don’t need to practice if we are clever. 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03 阅读理解4大常考话题 话题1 学校生活 话题2 节日和假期 话题3 更好的自己 话题4 成为更好的学习者 1.先看题目，圈关键词 只看题干，不看选项。圈人名、数字、大写词、特殊名词，知道要找什么。 2.快速扫读全文，掌握大意 不用逐词翻译，看懂每段大概讲什么，标出段落中心句（大多在段首）。遇到不认识的生词先跳过，不要卡壳。 3.带着题干回原文定位，找依据 根据刚才圈的关键词，回到文章找到对应的句子，答案就在这句话或前后一句。 4.对比选项，选出答案，最后检查 对照原文句子，排除明显错的选项；做完看一眼，确保没有答非所问。 话题1 学校生活（共3篇） Passage 1 （25-26八年级上·全国·期中） Having a good friend is important in our life.

I know you’ve been feeling sad lately because you’re having trouble making true friends and even had a fight with Matt last week. Don’t worry, I’m here to share some ideas with you.​ First, let’s talk about how to find real friends. True friends always care about each other. When you meet someone new, don’t be too shy to talk. Try to find out what you have in common, like hobbies or favorite novels. For example, if you both love reading Mark Twain’s novels, you can talk about the characters in the books. A good friend should be honest and hard-working, not lazy. They will listen to you and help you solve problems, not just talk loud without thinking.​ Now, about fixing your friendship with Matt.

You can attend the school music show with him this weekend—you both like playing the flute, remember? When you talk to him, be direct but kind. Don’t focus on the difference between you two; instead, think about your similarity and the happy times you shared. Thanks to your long friendship, I believe he will forgive you soon.​ Congratulations on being brave enough to face these problems! Everyone makes mistakes, so don’t be too serious about it. If you have spare time, call me.

Its history dates back over 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty. Ancient people believed the number “nine” represented yang energy, so double nine meant double power. To avoid bad luck, they would climb mountains, drink chrysanthemum wine, and wear a plant called zhuyu.     Today, the festival is also famous. Since 1989, China has encouraged people to honor the elderly through community activities like preparing special cakes called “chongyang gao” or helping clean homes for older neighbors. Mountain climbing remains popular, expressing the wish for good health and long life. In 2006, the festival was added to China’s National Intangible Cultural Heritage List (中国国家非物质文化遗产名录), confirming (确认) its cultural importance. Unlike the lively Spring Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival, the Double Ninth Festival carries a quiet atmosphere (氛围). It focuses on respecting nature and valuing family connections, especially between generations (一代). As modern life speeds up, this day reminds people to slow down, appreciate the wisdom of elders, and pass traditions to the young. 1．Why did ancient people wear the plant zhuyu during the Double Ninth Festival?

A new study suggests that a person’s name may influence how they look when they grow up. In the study, researchers showed people photos of different faces and asked them to choose the most matching (相配的) names. People in the study could correctly match the names to the adult faces quite well. However, they found it much harder to match names to children’s faces. This suggests that as people grow older, their looks might slowly change to fit their name. The researchers also used a computer program to compare faces. It found that adults with the same name look more similar to each other than adults with different names. But this was not true for children.   ▲  The researchers think it might be because many people have the same ideas about names. For example, people might think someone named “Bob” should have a rounder and happier face. Without realizing it, a person named Bob might smile more often or choose a certain hairstyle, making his face look rounder and friendlier over time. This way, he slowly grows to look like his name. The study shows that our names might play a small but interesting part in shaping who we are even in how we look. 1．What did people find difficult to do in the study? A．To choose the right name for adults. B．To match names to children’s faces. C．To take photos of different faces. D．To give names to children. 2．What can we infer (推断) about adults from the study? A．They change their names more often. B．They don’t care about their names. C．Their faces match their names better. D．Computers can’t recognize their faces. 3．Which of the following can be put in ________ in Paragraph 4? A．Why does this happen? B．What is the final result? C．How do computers help? D．When did the study begin? 4．What does Bob probably look like? A． B． C． D． 5．Which is the best title for this passage? A．How to Choose a Good Name? B．Why Do Children Look Different? C．Do Computers Know Our Faces? D．Can Names Change Our Looks? 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，这篇研究表明，人的名字可能会影响其长大后的外貌，成年人的长相会逐渐与名字更匹配，而孩子则不明显，这是因为人们对名字有固定印象，会不自觉地调整自身状态来契合名字。   【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据“However, they found it much harder to match names to children’s faces.”可知，人们在研究中觉得把名字和孩子的脸匹配起来很困难。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“People in the study could correctly match the names to the adult faces quite well.”以及“adults with the same name look more similar to each other than adults with different names”可推断，成年人的脸和他们的名字更匹配。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“The researchers think it might be because many people have the same ideas about names.”可知，此段是在解释这种现象的原因，所以空处应填“Why does this happen?”。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据“people might think someone named ‘Bob’ should have a rounder and happier face”可知，Bob可能长着更圆、更开心的脸。结合选项中的图片，B选项是开心的圆脸形象。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。根据“A new study suggests that a person’s name may influence how they look when they grow up.”以及全文内容可知，文章围绕“名字是否会改变人的外貌”展开。故选D。 第 2 题 题干：What can we infer (推断) about adults from the study? 答案：C Their faces match their names better. 定位句：People in the study could correctly match the names to the adult faces quite well. 考点：推理判断题 易错：A、B 文中完全没有提到；D 和原文第二段电脑比对的内容相反，学生容易凭空猜想。 第 3 题 题干：Which of the following can be put in ________ in Paragraph 4? 答案：A Why does this happen? 定位句：The researchers think it might be because many people have the same ideas about names. 考点：段落主旨句，上下文逻辑 易错：看到 because 就知道本段在解释原因，学生容易选错其他疑问词；B 问结果、C 问电脑作用、D 问研究时间，都和下文解释原因不匹配。 Passage 3 （25-26八年级上·辽宁铁岭·期中） Personality and Appearance People often judge (判断) others by their appearance, but personality is more important. Appearance is what you see on the outside, like height, hair color, and clothes. Personality is what’s inside, like being kind, honest, or funny. A person may look very beautiful but have a bad personality. They might be rude or selfish (自私) which makes it hard to be friends with them. On the other hand, someone who is not very good-looking may have a great personality. They could be friendly, helpful and fun to be with, making them popular. It’s important to remember that appearance can change but personality is harder to change. We should try to get to know people before judging them. A kind heart is more valuable than a pretty face. 1．What do people often judge others by? A．Personality. B．Appearance. C．Hobbies. D．Dreams. 2．What is appearance? A．What’s inside a person.

D．A big house. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．A 【导语】本文主要讲人们常以貌取人，但性格更重要，好性格比美貌更可贵，应先了解人再评判。 【详解】36．细节理解题。根据“People often judge others by their appearance, but personality is more important.”可知，人们通常是通过外表来判断他人的。故选B。 1．细节理解题。根据“Appearance is what you see on the outside, like height, hair color, and clothes.”可知，外表是指从外部看到的东西。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“They might be rude or selfish which make it hard to be friends with them.”可知，性格不好的人可能粗鲁或自私，这使得很难和他们做朋友。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“A kind heart is more valuable than a pretty face.”可知，善良的心比漂亮的脸蛋更有价值。故选 A。 第 2 题 题干：What is appearance? 答案：C What you see on the outside. 定位句：Appearance is what you see on the outside, like height, hair color, and clothes. 考点：词义概念辨析 易错：A、B、D 都属于 personality 内在品质，学生容易混淆外表 appearance 和内在品性 personality 两个概念。 第 3 题 题干：Why is it hard to be friends with someone with a bad personality? 答案：B They are rude or selfish. 定位句：They might be rude or selfish (自私) which makes it hard to be friends with them. 考点：细节因果题 易错：A、C、D 都是良好品质，属于反向干扰选项，要看清题干 bad personality。 话题4 成为好的学习者（共3篇） Passage 1 （25-26八年级上·广东深圳·期中） The word “inventor” may make people think of something difficult. But in fact, anyone can be an inventor! 1 Here is how you can bring your idea to life. Find a problem to solve. 1 Will it make a daily task easier? Will it help people in a new way? Knowing this will help you guide your design. Then, start thinking of ideas that can solve the problem. 2 After you know the problem, it’s time to go online to check if anything like your idea already exists. If you find the same product online, you need a new idea. If not, you are lucky! You may have a great new idea for your invention. Make a prototype (原型) to see how it works. A prototype is a model of your final product. You can start by drawing a picture of your idea. 1 This helps you see if your idea really works. Sometimes, you may make a few different prototypes before you get it right. This is not always an easy job, but it is very interesting. 2 A．Do research to see if your idea is new. B．Remember, every great invention starts with a simple idea and a lot of hard work. C．You can also share your idea with your friends to get more new ideas. D．Then, you can try to make a simple model with things around your house. E．If you have a new idea for a product, you can make it real. F．Think about what problem your invention will work out. 【答案】1．E 2．F 3．A 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了普通人如何成为发明家，以及将发明想法变为现实的具体步骤，包括发现问题、调研想法、制作原型等。 【详解】 1．第一段提到“任何人都可以成为发明家”，后文说“Here is how you can bring your idea to life.”。选项E“If you have a new idea for a product, you can make it real.”承接前文“任何人都可以成为发明家”，进一步说明如果你有产品新想法，就可以将其实现，与后文“how to bring your idea to life”形成呼应，逻辑连贯。 2．第二段小标题为“Find a problem to solve.”，后文问“Will it make a daily task easier? Will it help people in a new way?”。选项F“Think about what problem your invention will work out.”直接点出要思考发明要解决什么问题，与后文的具体提问（是否让日常任务更简单、是否以新方式帮助人们）形成递进关系。 3．第三段内容为：知道问题后，上网查是否有类似想法存在，如果有则需新想法，如果没有则幸运。选项A“Do research to see if your idea is new.”作为本段小标题，准确概括了“上网查证新颖性”的核心内容，与后文“check if anything like your idea already exists”完全对应。 4．第四段建议制作原型，先画图，后文说“这有助于你看想法是否真的可行”。选项D“Then, you can try to make a simple model with things around your house.”在画图之后，进一步建议用家中物品制作简单模型，与后文“原型测试”逻辑衔接自然。 5．第五段说“这并不总是容易，但非常有趣”，后文应给出鼓励性总结。选项B“Remember, every great invention starts with a simple idea and a lot of hard work.”作为结尾句，既呼应了前文“不容易但有趣”，又总结了发明需要从简单想法和努力开始，与全文主题一致。 第 2 题 题干：Find a problem to solve. ____ Will it make a daily task easier? Will it help people in a new way? 答案：F Think about what problem your invention will work out. 考点：段落主题句 易错：本段小标题是找到要解决的问题，后面两个问句都是围绕发明要解决什么问题展开。学生容易混淆 C，C 是和朋友分享想法，和本段主题无关。 第 3 题 题干：____ After you know the problem, it’s time to go online to check if anything like your idea already exists. 答案：A Do research to see if your idea is new. 考点：选小标题 易错：学生没有看懂段落大意，本段核心是上网查阅，确认想法是否已经存在。A 选项概括整段内容，其余选项不符合本段 “调研” 的主题。 Passage 2 （25-26八年级上·河南商丘·期中） I started learning Spanish. At first, it felt a bit scary. There were so many new words and strange accents (口音). But as I learned more phrases, I felt more confident (自信的). It wasn’t just about speaking a new language. It was about proving to myself that I could do something that seemed impossible before. The best part is meeting new people. Learning a language turns strangers into friends. You can join in conversations, understand jokes and really fit in. Language connects us in ways that books can’t. Studies say that learning a second language can improve memory and problem-solving ability. I can really feel the difference. Switching (转换) between English and Spanish made me think differently about language. I’m more careful with words and pay more attention when I listen. Of course, it’s not always easy. Sometimes, I forget a word I learned the day before, or I don’t understand what someone is saying. But I’ve learned that every mistake means I’m trying, and trying is learning. Learning a language is hard work, but it can also be fun. With apps like Duolingo, practicing can be fun and something to look forward to, not a chore. Learning a language is also about having a positive attitude. It’s a lesson in being open to other cultures. Maybe one day you’ll be ordering tacos in Mexico City. 1．How did the writer feel at the beginning of learning Spanish? A．Scared. B．Confident. C．Excited. D．Relaxed. 2．What is the best part of learning Spanish for the writer? A．Learning new phrases. B．Meeting new people. C．Using apps like Duolingo. D．Understanding Spanish books. 3．What does the writer think of mistakes in language learning? A．They are useless. B．They mean failure. C．They show one is trying. D．They should be avoided. 4．Which of the following can take the place of “a chore” in Paragraph 4? A．A difficult test. B．A useful skill. C．A funny game.

It’s about developing effective learning habits and skills that will help you succeed in the long run. Here are some tips to become a better learner: First, set clear goals. Before you start studying, know what you want to achieve. For example, instead of saying “I want to study English”, say “I want to memorize 20 new words and practice speaking for 15 minutes today”. Clear goals help you stay focused and motivated. Second, manage your time wisely. Make a study schedule and stick to it. Don’t leave all your work until the last minute. For example, if you have a test next week, study a little every day instead of cramming the night before. This way, you can learn better and reduce stress. Third, use different learning methods. Everyone learns differently. Some people learn by reading, some by listening, and others by doing. Try to use a mix of methods. For example, when learning a new subject, you can read textbooks, watch educational videos, and do exercises. This will help you understand the knowledge better. Fourth, ask for help when you need it. Don’t be afraid to ask your teachers, classmates, or parents for help if you don’t understand something. Asking questions is a sign of active learning, not weakness. Your teachers are always willing to help you, and your classmates may have different ways to explain the problem. Finally, review regularly. After learning something new, review it within 24 hours. This helps you remember the knowledge for a long time. You can review by making notes, doing practice questions, or explaining the knowledge to someone else. By following these tips, you can become a good learner and achieve your academic goals. Remember, learning is a lifelong journey, and the earlier you develop good habits, the better. 1．How many tips are mentioned in the passage?

A．How to Set Goals B．How to Manage Time C．How to Become a Good Learner D．How to Ask for Help 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．C 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何成为一名优秀的学习者。文章提出了五条具体的建议，包括设定清晰的目标、明智地管理时间、使用不同的学习方法、在需要时寻求帮助以及定期复习，旨在帮助学生培养有效的学习习惯。 【详解】 1．文章结构清晰，使用了连接词来列举建议。第二段开头是“First, set clear goals.”；第三段开头是“Second, manage your time wisely.”；第四段开头是“Third, use different learning methods.”；第五段开头是“Fourth, ask for help when you need it.”；第六段开头是“Finally, review regularly.”。通过统计这些连接词引导的段落，我们可以直接得出文中一共提到了五条建议。 2．根据第三段的内容，“study a little every day instead of cramming the night before.”。这里的“instead of”表示对比，前文建议每天学一点，那么后文对应的“cramming”指的应该是与之相反的行为，即在考试前临时抱佛脚、死记硬背或突击学习。 3．根据第四段的内容，“Third, use different learning methods. Everyone learns differently.”。文中明确指出使用不同方法的原因是每个人的学习风格各异，为了适应这种差异并更好地理解知识，需要混合使用多种方法。 4．根据第二段关于“Clear goals”的描述，“For example, instead of saying ‘I want to study English’, say ‘I want to memorize 20 new words and practice speaking for 15 minutes today’.”。这说明清晰的目标应该是具体、可量化且有时限的。 5．文章第一段就开宗明义：“Here are some tips to become a better learner.”。随后的每一段都在阐述具体的建议。因此，文章的核心主题是关于如何成为一个好的学习者。 第 1 题 题干：How many tips are mentioned in the passage? 答案：B Five 定位句：First…Second…Third…Fourth…Finally… 考点：细节计数 易错：学生容易把开篇引入句或者结尾总结当成一条建议，误选 C；只需要数文中 First、Second、Third、Fourth、Finally 引导的 5 条要点。 第 2 题 题干：What does the underlined word “cramming” mean? 答案：A 突击学习 定位句：Don’t leave all your work until the last minute. For example, if you have a test next week, study a little every day instead of cramming the night before. 考点：词义猜测 易错：抓住 instead of（而不是），前文建议每天学一点，相对的就是考前一晚临时突击。学生容易混淆词义，错选 B 认真复习。 本文是一篇说明文。引用谚语“熟能生巧”，通过举例论证，告诉我们坚持练习才能把事情做好。 An old Chinese saying goes: “Practice makes perfect.” It means if you keep practising something again and again, you will become very good at it. This old saying tells us a simple truth. No one can learn a new skill well in a short time. Many students think they can learn English well quickly. But in fact, good English needs lots of practice. You need to read, listen and speak every day. The story of Wang Xizhi is a great example. He was a famous calligrapher in ancient China. He loved writing so much that he practised writing every day. He washed his writing brushes in the pond near his house. Slowly, the clean pond turned black. After years of hard practice, he became one of the greatest writers in history. This saying is not only for study. It works for everything. If you want to play basketball well, you must practise shooting. If you want to play the piano well, you need to practise every day. Nothing can be done well without lots of practice. So don’t give up easily. Keep practising, and you will make great progress. 1．What does the old saying “Practice makes perfect” mean? A．We must be perfect from the start. B．Practising often helps us do things well. C．Only perfect people need to practice. D．We can learn everything quickly. 2．What was Wang Xizhi good at? A．Playing basketball. B．Playing the piano. C．Writing calligraphy. D．Speaking English. 3．Why did the pond turn black? A．Because Wang Xizhi put black ink into it.

A．We can learn English well in a few days. B．The saying only works for school study. C．Wang Xizhi became famous after long-time practice. D．We don’t need to practice if we are clever. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．C 【详解】1．根据第一段中的“An old Chinese saying goes: “Practice makes perfect.” It means if you keep practising something again and again, you will become very good at it.”可知，这句谚语的含义是反复练习一件事，你就会非常擅长它。也就是经常练习有助于我们把事情做好。 2．根据第三段中的“The story of Wang Xizhi is a great example. He was a famous calligrapher in ancient China.”可知，王羲之是一位伟大的书法家，所以王羲之擅长写书法。   3．根据第三段中的“He washed his writing brushes in the pond near his house. Slowly, the clean pond turned black.”可知，池塘变黑的原因是王羲之每天在那里洗毛笔。 4．根据第三段中的“After years of hard practice, he became one of the greatest writers in history.”可知，王羲之经过长时间练习之后成名。 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 $
