For me, home is not just a house — it is a place full of love, laughter and delicious smells from the kitchen. To make our home sweet, I do my best every day. I share the housework, like sweeping the floor and washing dishes after dinner. At weekends, we spend more time together — we ride bikes in the park or watch a movie together. What’s more, we care about each other and always support each other. Here is a sweet story of my family. When Grandma’s birthday came last month, what we did was a big surprise: I cooked a bowl of noodles for her, and Mom and Dad decorated the living room with balloons. How happy she was! She smiled with tears in her eyes and said it was the best gift. Home is where love begins and never ends. Let’s do small things with great love.

One was Prince Edward in soft, expensive clothes. The other was Tom, a poor boy in old, broken clothes. They looked exactly the same. Edward was curious(好奇的). “Who are you?” he asked. “I’m Tom Canty,” the boy answered. “How amazing!” Edward smiled and asked Tom about his life on the streets. “Your life is hard, but it sounds free,” Edward said after hearing Tom’s story. “Would you like to exchange our clothes?” Tom was surprised but agreed. Soon Tom was in the prince’s clothes, and Edward was in Tom’s old ones, feeling a sense of excitement. Then Edward noticed a cut on Tom’s hand. “The guards(卫兵) hurt you,” said Edward angrily. “I’ll ask them to say sorry.” He ran to the door and shouted, “Open the door!” But the guards only saw a dirty boy, so they just threw him out. Outside the palace, Edward stood alone in the cold street. He felt hungry and tired. He told others, “I am the prince!” but nobody believed him. At the same time, Tom sat alone in the huge room. Servants(仆人) brought him lots of nice food, but he was too upset to eat. “What if they find out I’m not the prince?” he kept thinking. He wanted to tell the truth, but he was too afraid to do so. (Adapted(改编) from The Prince and the Pauper) 42. Edward and Tom found they were the same in _______. A. appearance B. personality C. strength D. habit 43.

By showing their deep friendship. 46. Which chapter(章节) is this part probably taken from? A. Chapter I: The Birth of Two Boys B. Chapter II: Life of A Poor Boy C. Chapter III: Exchanging Roles D. Chapter IV: The Truth Comes Out (C) When Grace Andrews started her trip to China, she took an empty suitcase(行李箱). It was for shopping only. When she went back to the U.S., that suitcase was completely full. Grace is not alone. This October, a new phrase called “China Haul” is getting popular online. In “China Haul” videos, people open their suitcases and show all the goods(商品) they buy in China. Many videos get millions of likes. What is inside their suitcases? Twenty years ago, visitors mostly bought silk, tea and panda or tiger toys. Now their shopping lists are different. Many love to buy drones(无人机), action cameras, AI glasses, blind boxes and Chinese medicine. From January to July 2025, foreign visitors spent about 200 billion yuan in China. During the same period(时期) in 2026, the spending went up by about 30 percent. But what is behind this change? China’s 240-hour visa-free policy(免签政策) might be part of the answer. But there is more. “Made in China” is changing now. It once meant being cheap and simple. But today, we have goods that look good, work well and cost less. Besides, visitors can shop online and have their goods sent to the hotel. A pair of glasses can be made in an hour—while it may take weeks in their home countries. “China Haul” shows a new side of China. Visitors take home not just goods, but a little piece of Chinese life. 47. What do people usually do in a “China Haul” video? A. Sell suitcases from China. B. Buy Chinese goods online. C. Share fun places in China. D. Show what they buy in China. 48. What do foreign visitors like to buy in China today? ① ② ③ ④ ⑤ A. ①②④ B. ①②③ C. ②③⑤ D. ①④⑤ 49. From January to July 2026, foreign visitors spent about ______ billion yuan in China. A. 260 B. 230 C. 200 D. 140 50. Why does the writer use the example of “a pair of glasses” in Paragraph 4? A. To show goods like glasses are cheap in China. B. To describe how beautiful the glasses are. C. To show glasses are popular Chinese gifts. D. To prove shopping is fast and easy in China. 51. Paragraph 4 mainly talks about the ________ of “China Haul”. A. history B. reasons C. importance D. results (D) In November, 2025, China’s space station welcomed some special astronauts—four little mice. They stayed on the space station for two weeks before returning to Earth. This was China’s first experiment(实验) of small mammals(哺乳动物) on its space station. The journey began with 300 mice. Scientists spent 60 days choosing the best ones. The mice had to pass many tests. For example, they needed to stay on a turning stick(棍子) for more than 110 seconds to show they were strong enough for space life. They also had to find their way through mazes to show how well they could remember places. Finally, four black mice performed the best and got the chance to go to space. These black mice have very similar genes(基因) because they come from a special group. This helps scientists get more exact results from the experiments. Their space home had 24-hour cameras to watch their life in space closely. This study is an important step in China’s space history. It tests if China can safely send mammals to space, care for them, and bring them back. What we learn from it will support China’s plans to send people to the moon before 2030 and to Mars one day. After returning to Earth, one mouse gave birth to nine babies, and six of them are still alive and growing well. Now scientists are planning to send more mice and keep them there for 30 days. The story of mice in space is not over. 52. What do we know about the mice from Paragraph 1? A. Their number. B. Their colour. C. Their weight. D. Their skill. 53. Which picture best describes the word “mazes” in Paragraph 2? A. B. C. D. 54. Why did scientists choose black mice with similar genes for the study? A. They are stronger than white mice. B. They are cheaper than other animals. C. It makes the experiment results exact. D. It’s easier for them to prepare for space life. 55. What does “it” refer to in Paragraph 4? A. Their space home. B. The study. C. China’s space history. D. The mammal. 56. What will the writer probably write about in the next paragraph? A. How the six baby mice grow up on Earth. B. When China sends people to the moon. C. What other animals will be sent to space. D. How to prepare for the next mice trip to space. 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯、意思完整。(每小题1分，满分5分) Do you often use Rock-Paper-Scissors to help you decide something?

But for people with eyesight problems, visiting new places can be really hard. Tactile maps(触觉地图) are special maps made just for them. Unlike common maps, tactile maps use special raised marks(凸起标记) and different pictures to show different places. Big triangles(▲) stand for traffic lights, wavy lines( ) stand for water, dotted(•) areas show cities and towns, black squares stand for bus stops, and areas with small triangles show forests. Users touch the maps with their fingers to learn about the places around them and plan their trips. Making a good tactile map is not easy. It needs not only knowledge about geography, but also psychology(心理学). Psychology helps to decide how much information to put on the maps, so users won’t feel worried or tired. Besides, new technology is also needed. For example, 3D printing can help cut down the cost. Tactile maps do more than just show the way. They make people with eyesight problems feel free and independent(独立的). They once needed others’ help, but now they can go out on their own. There are still some problems with tactile maps, but maybe one day, tools like these can make life easier for people who need our help. 67. Who are tactile maps made for? They are made for ________________________________________________________________ 68. Look at the map in the passage. Which letter shows the forests, A, B, C or D?______________ 69.

Give one example and share how it helps. _____________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ VII. 短文填词 根据语境或具体提示填空，完成短文，每空1词。（每小题1分，满分10分） Think about a plant that grows in muddy(浑浊的) water but opens lovely flowers. That is the lotus. It is seen as one of the most beautiful 72 (flower) in Asia. In summer, whole lakes turn green and pink with these flowers. The round leaves are much 73 (big) than a dinner plate. The lotus grows 74 (easy) in warm, shallow water. 75 (it) leaves are covered with thousands of tiny bumps (凸起). When rain falls, water runs off and carries the dirt away. Scientists call this the “lotus effect(效应)”, and that gives scientists the idea of 76 to make self-cleaning paint and glass. The lotus is also a gift for the kitchen. Later in summer, farmers are busy 77 (pick) the green seed pods and roots. The roots can be cooked in many ways. The seeds are also 78 (health) food. People usually boil them in soup. 79 the small green heart inside each seed tastes bitter(苦的), people still like it because it’s good for the heart and for sleep. About a thousand years ago, Zhou Dunyi 80 (write) a short but famous essay about the lotus and called it “the gentleman among flowers”. For Chinese people, the lotus is a 81 of purity(纯洁) and goodness. People have loved it for thousands of years.
