All residents (居民) using rubbish bins must have covers on them to prevent rain/snow water from building up inside. Please notice the following list of things will NOT be picked up by the Sanitation Division (卫生部门): ●Medical Waste—Call the Health Department at 508-946-2408. ●Containers (容器) with sharp edges or bottoms. ●Metals, furniture or building materials. ●Recyclable materials.

Please help us keep costs down.

How often is household rubbish collected in the town? A. Every day. B. Every week. C. Every other day. D. Every other week. 2. Which of the following recyclables will be collected? A. A Nike box. B. A plastic toy car. C. An old cellphone. D. A yellow drinking glass. 3. What should the residents do when they throw their recyclables? A. They should help keep pick-up costs down. B. They should put paper products in plastic bags. C. They should have them cleaned before throwing. D. They should throw them by 7:00 a.m. in the yard. 4. In which part of a newspaper can you read the text? A. Health B. Environment C. Science D. Family B Have you noticed that the picture of Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, looks different in today’s history textbooks? For many years, students saw him with a “shoehorn face”, which means he had a chin (下巴) that stuck out and a very long face. Now, the picture has changed to make him look more calm and handsome. This change isn’t brand-new. The new picture has been in high school textbooks since 2019, and it was added to Grade 7 textbooks in 2024. In history, Zhu is pictured with two different appearances. One is called the zhengxing portrait (肖像), showing him with a round face and calm expression. The other is the yixing portrait, showing a sticking-out chin, long face and many dark spots. Historians believe the zhengxing portrait is closer to how Zhu really looked. This idea is supported by family features, as his son, Zhu Di, also had a round face. Why are there two types of portraits? Professor Jin Wen explains that the yixing portrait became popular because of ancient beliefs. People thought that if a ruler looked unusual, it was a sign from heaven, making them trust the ruler more. In fact, Zhu himself also encouraged this unusual image. Some studies suggest he did this to protect himself by not showing his real look. Today, not only textbooks but also the portraits at the Ming Xiaoling Museum in Nanjing show the zhengxing portrait. Many visitors support this change. It is not only about making the emperor look better, but it also helps young people think more critically about history. They can have their own understanding and judgement.Meanwhile, using the correct pictures shows respect for historical characters and helps teach history correctly, said Professor Lin Wei from Zhejiang University. 5. Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraphs 1 and 2? A. Zhu Yuanzhang was the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty. B. The new picture has been in high school textbooks since 2019. C. The change of Zhu Yuanzhang’s picture is a completely new thing. D. Zhu Yuanzhang is the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty. 6. How is the passage organized? A. Introduction→ Facts of two portraits→ Reasons→ Influence of the change. B. Opinion→ Examples→ Conclusions. C. Problem→ Ways to solve the problem. D. Comparison between two different periods. 7. What does the underlined word “critically” in the last paragraph mean? A. Understand quickly and use freely. B. Follow blindly and accept fully. C. Judge independently and never believe easily. D. Learn carefully and remember for long. 8. What can we infer from the passage? A. Zhu Yuanzhang liked the yixing portrait because it looked like his true appearance. B. We should learn to think independently when we study history. C. Most visitors in Ming Xiaoling Museum dislike the zhengxing portrait. D. All old portraits of ancient rulers are not real. C You may feel that math is difficult and boring. Is it possible that you’ ve been looking at math in the wrong way? Numbers are beautiful There is math hidden in beautiful human bodies. Measure the length from your head to your belly button (肚脐) and from your belly button to your feet. The ratio (比例) of these two numbers is always around 0.618. This is the golden ratio, which can be seen everywhere, like in nature, music and paintings. In Chinese poems, we can also see the beauty of numbers. As Li Bai wrote, “My skiff (小船) has left ten thousand mountains far away”, “A thousand miles in one day”—all these numbers show how fast Li Bai traveled and how happy he felt. Curves (曲线) are beautiful “Sine curves” are beautiful. They go towards the two opposite directions on and on without ever ending. When you look at them, you may feel like standing by the sea and watching the waves slowly moving. When listening to music, the sound waves from guitars or pianos are made up of sine curves. “Tangent curve” is like a waterfall, just as Li Bai wrote, “dashing (猛冲) down three thousand feet from on high”. Formulas (公式) are beautiful There are some amazing formulas. In a right-angled triangle the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. How amazing! Just as Chinese-American mathematician Chern Shiing-shen said, “Math is fun!” 9. If the ratio of a thing is around 0.618, ________. A. it is a golden colour B. it only happens in human bodies C. it should be something used for math study D. it might bring people a sense of beauty 10. What does a Tangent curve look like? A. B. C. D. 11. What amazing formula is mentioned in the passage about right-angled triangles? A. B. C. D. 12. What is the passage mainly about? A. Why math is beautiful and fun. B. Why math is difficult and complex. C. How we can learn math in a right way. D. How math helps us live a better life. D The Changjiang River, also known as the Yangtze River, is one of the longest rivers in the world. It is important to the Chinese people and is called the “mother river”. It is not just a natural wonder — it is also a symbol of the Chinese nation. Nowadays, the Yangtze River National Cultural Park comes into view. How to protect Yangtze River culture and improve cultural confidence is a new task for the places near the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River National Cultural Park, which is also an important “National Park” project, goes across 13 provinces with 841 national-level intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) projects, 465 historical and cultural cities, towns, and villages, as well as 91 national-level museums. It expresses China’s traditional, revolutionary (革命的), and socialist advanced cultures. With over 2,200 years’ history, Jiujiang plays an important part in the Yangtze River National Cultural Park. To protect Yangtze River culture, Jiujiang creates the “Most Beautiful Yangtze River Bank”. Jiujiang makes it possible that the park not only protects cultural heritage but also further improves the quality of people’s life there. The park turns Jiujiang into a place where visitors can learn more about historical stories and enjoy natural beauty. It also helps local communities by creating jobs in tourism. The Yangtze River National Cultural Park project carries the great meaning for the Chinese nation. The project is based on the rich cultural resources (资源). The Yangtze River National Cultural Park project holds value in many fields such as water resources protection, social development and educational programs for students. It draws a new painting and shows harmony (和谐) between nature, people and cities. 13. What is the new task for the places near the Yangtze River? A. Calling on more people to pay a visit to the Yangtze River. B. Setting a good example for other cultural parks in the country. C. Protecting the Yangtze River culture and improving cultural confidence. D. Building the best national and cultural park in the world. 14. What’s the purpose of listing numbers in Paragraph 3? A. To compare different cultural parks. B. To stress the influence of the project. C. To ask people to protect the environment. D. To explain the history of the Yangtze River. 15. What does the underlined word “It” in the last paragraph refer to? A. The culture. B. The project. C. The history. D. The river. 16. What is the best title for the text? A. The Cultural Development of Jiujiang B. The Long History of the Yangtze River C. The Yangtze River National Cultural Park D. The Importance of the Yangtze River 第二节 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 How can you make your English better? It is a question often asked by many English learners.

On his website, O’Hare says checking a word in the dictionary may build vocabulary, but it doesn’t build fluency. ____19____ As you get more confident, you can begin having conversations in English in your head, Repetry says.

If you have courage, you will build confidence in any aspect (方面) of your life. How can we develop our courage? Here are some suggestions for you. Describe what you fear in simpler ways. When you’re in the face of something that makes you fear or lose courage, describe it simply. In this way, you can feel the hard situations common. For example, if you are afraid to swim in the ocean, you may imagine it as a large swimming pool. Avoid comparing yourself with others. Every person is different and comparing yourself with other people can reduce your self-confidence. You should focus on yourself and not compare yourself with others. It is a good way to build your confidence and courage. Avoid the bad and embrace (拥抱) the good. Bad thoughts and attitudes (态度) are terrible and if you follow them, they will grow stronger and make you lose confidence and bravery. Looking for the good in every situation can help you be braver. Keep moving forward. It is normal and acceptable (可接受的) to have negative thoughts once in a while, but you’d better learn not to pay attention to them. By always facing the future bravely and moving toward the positive, you will be able to change your negative attitudes. Face your fears with courage, and stay happy and keep going. That’s how you can grow stronger and braver every day! 41. What should you do when you’re in the face of something that makes you fear or lose courage? ____________________________________________________________________ 42.

When it comes to study, technology has also made a big difference. Traditional paper books are gradually being replaced by e-books, which are easier to carry.
