例文:
It is reported that a few restaurants still have some wild animals as delicious food on the table. I think this behavior is very bad.
Wild animals and humans share a common home. Humans should protect them rather than hurt them. My friends and I will set up a wildlife conservation center around the community to help wild animals in danger. At the same time, we will also hold promotional activities in schools and communities, hoping that more people who care about animals will join us. We also plan to create a website for protecting wildlife. Anyone who wants to learn about and help wildlife can contact us through the internet.
Let’s work together to protect our animal friends.

“No,” replied the tree. “It will certainly last much 27 than I can even think of.”
“Well, then,” said the little fly, “We have the same time to live; only we have different ways of 28 it.”
The little creature 29 happily with its wings in the air, enjoying in the sweet pleasure around it. The long and beautiful day seemed to it so full of joy.

You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give without spending time filling your own needs, then it’s likely you will burn out, or feel upset. When you take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the empty space in your life.
The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call “being” values and “having” values.
Your “being” values are the personalities of the ideal person you would like to be. People can choose some “being” values that they are willing to make a promise to live by. An example of some “being” values are: kind, loving, generous, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values, you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these personalities becomes your life purpose.
Your “having” values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship, achievement or support. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.
When you make a promise to live by your “being” values, it becomes easier to make conscious (慎重的) choices. If you usually talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, or set a time limit before you react. If you usually worry about something, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. A responsible or wise person might have the courage to deal with difficulties they meet. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be—this is the key to personal power.
When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, but you make your chosen beliefs stronger. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you.
33.According to the passage, living by your “being” values, you would________.
A.get a lot of power B.receive support from others C.fill your own needs D.form positive personalities
34.What can we learn from the passage
A.Having values are more important than being values.
B.The way other people think of you changes your values.
C.You may shake your beliefs when your values are clear to you.
D.Acting on your values can help balance what you give and receive.
35.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage
A.To show the importance of giving. B.To explain what personal values are.
C.To tell people how to be truly happy. D.To encourage people to have a life purpose.
C
Roberta, Peter and Phyllis lived in a large house in London. Father worked hard in a government office. He was never angry and always ready for a game. Mother was almost at home, ready to play with the children, and help them do their home-lessons.
These three lucky children always had everything they needed: pretty clothes, good fires, a lovely playroom and a dog called James. They had a happy life, but they did not know how happy till the pretty life in the large house was over.
Peter had a toy engine and it broke. After dinner, Peter showed Father the engine. Father looked it over and promised to do it on Saturday.
At that moment two men came to see Father. Minutes passed. Father’s voice came out from the study, loud and angry.
More time passed. Then Mother came in and said, “Father’s been called away-on business.”
A week after their father went away, their mother said, “Now, we’re going to move to the country. A pretty little white house, called Three Chimneys.”
The family started packing: clothes, plates, candles and also tables and chairs. “We seem to be taking all the ugly things,” said Roberta.
“We’re taking the useful ones,” said Mother. “We’ve got to play at being poor for a bit.”
Peter said joyously, “I do like moving! I wish we moved once a month.” Mother laughed and said, “I don’t like moving!”
As she turned away, Roberta saw her face. She never forgot it.
“Oh, Mother,” she whispered, “how I love you! You are brave enough to laugh when you’re feeling like that!”
Then they took a train to Three Chimneys. No one knew how long they had been in the train when Mother woke them up.
They stood in the cold night air on the dark platform. At that moment they didn’t know how important the station and the trains would become to them. They didn’t know they were going to be the railway children.

Seahorses are small, thin fish. They’re called “seahorses” because they look a bit like horses. Although they’re fish, seahorses aren’t great swimmers. They often use their tail to hold onto something in the water. There are over 40 different kinds of seahorses. Many kinds of them are in danger.
On July 18,2023, Australian scientists released (释放) hundreds of baby White’s seahorses into the wild. White’s seahorses are mainly found near Sydney, Australia. In 2020, these seahorses were named the second most endangered kind of seahorse in the world. That’s partly because of pollution, and partly because many of the areas where they live, like seagrasses and coral reefs, have been lost.
To begin the project, scientists collected three pregnant (怀孕的) male seahorses in January. Those seahorses were brought back to the aquarium (水族馆) at the Sydney Institute of Marine Science (SIMS).
After the babies were born, the scientists kept them at the aquarium for five months, feeding the baby seahorses tiny shrimp (small shellfish) to help them grow strong. Scientist Mitchell Brennan says, “They don’t have a stomach, so they have to eat continuously (连续地).”
About a month before the young seahorses were released, the scientists created eight underwater “hotels” for them, The hotels looked a little like cages, and provided a safe place for the seahorses to develop. Putting the hotels into the sea early allowed the cages to be covered with small sea life that could help provide food for the seahorses.
The scientists have released seahorses into the area five times, but this time was a record. Around 380 seahorses were released and about 90% of them survived. The researchers put tiny tags (标签) under the skin of many of the seahorses to help track (追踪) them in the future.
The scientists are hoping that the young seahorses will grow and reproduce in large numbers. Brett Fenton, who works for SIMS. says. “It is highly expected that we’ll see the animals do well over the next 12 months.”
39.What do we know about White’s seahorses
A.They are facing dangers. B.They are good swimmers.
C.They are found worldwide. D.They disappeared in the wild.
40.What did the scientists do to help the young seahorses survive
A.Place tiny tags under their skin. B.Cover their cages with seagrass.
C.Prepare underwater habitats (栖息地) for them. D.Feed tiny shrimp to them monthly.
41.What made this seahorse release special
A.The timing of the release. B.The location of the release.
C.The number of pregnant seahorses released. D.The survival rate (存活率) of seahorses released.
42.How does Brett Fenton feel in the last paragraph
A.Curious. B.Confident. C.Worried. D.Surprised.

Because of the pandemic (疫情), many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (直播的) shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream on Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Beijing Opera, some show their folk handicrafts, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming.
Li Jun is a Beijing Opera performer in Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. After the outbreak, the 59-year-old man took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a formal stage, Li uses ordinary places as his stage, including his backyard and study room. Apart from singing, Li also teaches viewers about Beijing Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly.
“Livestreaming has brought this elegant (高雅的) art down to earth,” one viewer said. “It gives young people an easier aceess to this traditional art and lets them learn more about it.” Li has more than 6000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42,000 views on Bilibili.
On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a Huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers presented clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up.
As Guangming Daily noted, livestreaming has come to a new stage through which traditional culture can be kept alive.
43.Why did the writer mention Li Jun in the second paragraph
A.To ask young people to learn from Li Jun. B.To tell young people to learn Beijing Opera.
C.To ask young people to enjoy Li Jun’s livestreaming. D.To give an example of traditional culture livestreaming.
44.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.Art B.Earth C.Livestreaming D.Culture
45.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.Performers presented Chinese classical music in the Huafu show.
B.Beijing Opera performer Li Jun has more than 42,000 fans on Douyin.
C.More people have interest in traditional culture with the help of livestreaming.
D.Many traditional artists are starting to sell folk handicrafts on Douyin and Bilibili.

A. B. C. D.

We take selfies(自拍) when we try on a new hat, play with our pets or when we meet a friend whom we haven’t seen in a while. But does this crazy actually make sense Is there any scientific explanation for it
Well, you should probably ask James Kilner, a neuroscientist(神经科学家) at University College London. Through our lifetime we become experts at reading and telling other people’s faces and facial expressions. However, according to Kilner, we have a very poor understanding of our own faces since we have little experience of looking at them—we just feel them most of the time.
This has been proved in some studies in which people were shown photos of themselves and asked to match their facial expressions in the pictures. In most cases, they failed to correctly produce the same facial expressions without being able to see themselves in the mirror, according to BBC.
To further test how we actually sense our own faces, Kilner carried out another study. He showed people two kinds of their own pictures—one had been edited(编辑) to look less beautiful and the one was made more beautiful—and asked them to pick the version which they thought looked most like them. Kilner found that most people chose the more beautiful picture. This suggests that we usually think of ourselves as better-looking than we actually are.
But what does it say about selfies Well, isn’t that clear Selfies give us the power to create a photo—by taking it from different angles(角度), with different poses, using filters(滤镜) and so on—that better matches our expectations with our actual faces.
“You suddenly have control in a way that you don’t have in the real world.” Kilner told the Canada-based CTA News. “Selfies allow you to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you’re happy with”, he explained.
47.How does the writer lead in the topic “selfie” in Paragraph 1
A.By asking questions. B.By comparing facts. C.By giving examples. D.By explaining reasons.
48.We can learn from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3 that people are ________.
A.proud of the photos of their own B.able to remember their own faces easily
C.more interested in their faces in the mirror D.good at understanding others by their faces
49.According to Kilner, taking selfies ________.
A.helps people to improve their skills of taking photos B.meets people’s needs to know their own faces better
C.makes people possible to reach their expectation D.offers people a way to control the world
50.Which might be the best title of the passage
A.What Is the Selfies B.Why Do You Take Selfies
C.How Can We Take Selfies D.Who Likes Taking Selfies

Eighty percent of women say that losing their health is their greatest concern followed by putting on weight(52%) and losing their jobs(24%). 62 Twenty-three percent of women are on a diet now and fifty-eight percent have gone on a diet in the past.

Police dogs are given special training to help the police with their work. Many different types of dogs can be trained to do this work, but the best known ones are German shepherds and bloodhounds. In Britain, police dogs usually have a 13-week training course and many dogs fail. Not all dogs make good police dogs. They must be completely reliable and obedient. Most police dogs live with their handlers as part of the family, but they are not pets. They are working dogs and they have a job to do.
Police dogs are trained to chase and hold people who are trying to get away from the police. Police dogs are not vicious animals. They are trained to hold on to people until their handler tells them to let go.
Police dogs often go into dangerous places and they are given special vests to protect them from knife and gun attacks.
Dogs are not only trained to chase and catch criminals. They are also used for following suspects or finding missing people. This is because some dogs, such as bloodhounds, have a very good sense of smell and can be trained to recognize certain types of smells. Some dogs are used to find survivors after earthquakes or explosions and some are specially trained to find dead bodies.
In many countries dogs are used in airports to check luggage for drugs and bombs. Labradors, spaniels and beagles are used for this because they are friendly dogs and people are not afraid of them.
66.How long does the training course for police dogs usually last in Britain
67.What protects police dogs when they go into dangerous places
68.When will police dogs let go of the suspect
69.What can dogs be used for after earthquakes or explosions
70.Why can Labradors, spaniels and beagles be used to check luggage in airports

In school, you surely have had the e 71 that there are good students and not so good ones. And there are the outstanding (优秀的) ones. In this passage, we will give you some tips on how to become part of the group of great and outstanding students.
An outstanding student is a person who is curious and sees things d 72 . He always asks questions and has a lot of ideas. He likes to c 73 things to other experiences. And yes, he usually gets good if not the best grades in school.
You shouldn’t c 74 much about grades, though. If you pay all your attention to getting good grades, then you’ll miss the point. You don’t start with good grades and then become brilliant and outstanding. It is the other way around.
So how can you become an “A” student You can have only ideas and creative breakthroughs (突破) about things you know. The more k 75 you have, the more you are able to connect these separate parts and facts in unusual ways. You are likely to ask interesting q 76 . And you might even come up with surprising answers.
W 77 more, you should also know that understanding new knowledge is not always easy, especially if the knowledge is completely new to you. It may take you several days or e 78 weeks to take it in. So start early reading your learning material. Understanding is the f 79 purpose of your learning. Rote learning (死记硬背) of facts w 80 understanding is not helpful, even completely useless.
