I will never forget the lesson that I learned when I was in my primary school.One day, my 1.teacher, Mr. Brown came into the classroom. Without saying anything,he drew a line on the blackboard.

You can't remove the existing(己有的) line. You can't crase any part of it. 4.you can't even touch it."Mr. Brown added.We had never 5.that the line needed to be shortened without doing anything to it!

She was born in Coyoacan, near Mexico City,in1907. Frida grew up in a bright blue house with her parents and sisters. When she was six years old, she became ill with polio(小儿麻痹症) and had trouble walking fast.Frida spent a lot of her life in and out of hospitals. She had many health problems and she suffered (遭受) a lot of pain. When she was eighteen, she was in a bus accident. She broke lots of bones and she spent many months recovering. It was at this time that Frida started to paint. Many of her paintings from this time are about her life to show her pain.In 1929 Frida married Diego Rivera, a Mexican artist who was famous for painting hugemurals (壁画) on walls. Both artists continued their work and became successful at home and abroad. After they got married, Frida started to wear traditional Mexican clothes and became interested in Mexican folk art. This influenced her paintings, which are very bright and colourful, with an original style that is very personal to Frida. However, they continued to show the pain and sadness which she experienced during her life.Frida Kahlo died on 13 July 1954, after suffering more and more health problems. Her husband died three years later. Today Frida and Diego's home, La Casa Azul, is a very popular museum. It displays paintings by Frida and Dicgo, as well as many objects from their life, to help tell the story of one of the most important artists in the twentieth century.19.What can we learn from the passage?A.Frida suffered a lot of pain in her life.B.Diego Rivera's paintings were bright and colorful.C.Frida and Diego got married at the age of twenty-nine.D.Frida and Diego's home has become a famous place for people to paint.20.What does the underlined word"they"refer to in paragraph 3?A.Frida's paintings.B.Frida and her husband.C.Frida's parents and sisters.D.Traditional Mexican clothes.21.What is the correct order in which the following events happen?a.

In school, do you rush from one subject to another? When things happen so fast, you may easily get lost in what you are doing or learning. It is important to stop yourself every now and then to think about what you've been doing or learning.Self-reflection (反省) means slowing down and calming yourself, including calming your mind. By buing calm and going slowly, you give your brain a chance to look at the things it has already received. Some people prefer to do the self-reflection only in their mind. Others write notes.Either method works, depending on your own learning habits. Here are some tips on self-reflection in your study.Use natural breaks in your textbooks as chances to stop and reflect. School textbooks are often divided into chapters and units. This makes it easier for you to begin the process of self-reflection.Look for the times when you complete a unit of study in the subjects you are learning, such as math,social studies, science and art. Sometimes you know the unit is over because there is some kind of test or quiz.Write down some notes on the new things that you learned in the unit. Let your mind think about the notes you have written and make some connections. Sometimes just pausing(暂停) to think deeply allows your brain to make connections. Having lots of connections allows your brain to quickly retrieve_information when you need it again.Next, think about things that you are unsure of. For example, maybe you learned about a certain body system, but you're not sure how it works together with the other body systems. Maybe you learned a new way to solve a math problem, but you're not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help you remember to look for answers the next time you are working with the same topic.Self-reflection is a very important skill for a successful student. If you have never taken the time to reflect, try itnow.23.Why does the writer begin the passage with two questions?A.To ask readers for some tips about learning.B.To help readers get the main idea of the passage.C.To make readers interested in reading the passage.D.To get readers to think about things they are unsure of.24.How many tips on self-reflection are mentioned in the passage?A.Three.B.Four.C.Five.D.Six.25.What does the underlined word"retrieve"probably mean in paragraph 4?A.Store up.B.Get back.C.Look through.D.Pass down.26.What's the writer's purpose in writing this passage?A.To suggest a new learning skill to students.B.To show students the importance of learning.C.To introduce a new school subject to students.D.To describe a special learning experience to students.阅读理解Alaska is disappearing slowly, but surely. It is believed that since the 1950s, as much as 15%of Alaska's land area has disappeared. How can a whole Alaska be disappearing? The problem is that Alaska's glaciers are melting (融化).The state has more than 100,000 glaciers. These glaciers account for about75,000 square kilometers, or 5% of the state's area.According to a recent report by the US Geological Survey, 99%percent of Alaska's glaciers are diminishing (减少). This diminishing seems mainly because of the increase in global temperatures. Since the 1960s, the average year-round temperature has increased by almost 3℃. Besides, the average winter temperature has increased by over 6℃. Presently, an estimated 100 cubic kilometers of ice is disappearing from Alaskan glaciers every year. It may be even more in the near future.Another problem facing Alaska is its melting permafrost(冻土). Much of the land in Alaska used to be forever frozen or frozen for most of the year. Now, the melting permafrost is causing a number of problems for people living inAlaska. Roads and public poles are falling down. Also, the hard permafrost that prevented beaches from eroding (被侵蚀) during storms is now melting.People who live along Alaska's coasts are being forced to move away. For villages on small low islands, one terrible storm could wipe out the whole community.The melting permafrost and increasing temperatures are both influencing the forests of Alaska.As the permafrost under the forests melts, insects that normally do not turn up until the warmer seasons are appearing sooner. If something can't be done to change things, people will not see Alaska's forests at the end of the century.Some scientists believe that human activities have something to do with a global increase in weather temperature. Whatever the cause of rising temperatures may be, the fact remains that temperatures are warming, influencing Alaska for the worse. Terribly, this could be a pre view of what will happen to the rest of the world in the next century. 27.How does the writer show us the serious problem of Alaskan glaciers' disappearance?A.By using sayings.B.By listing numbers.C.By telling stories.D.By making comparisons.28.What do paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly talk about?A.The temperature in Alaska.B.The problems Alaska is faced with.C.The melting permafrost in Alaska.D.The people's living conditions in Alaska.29.What's the writer's attitude (态度) towards Alaskan glaciers' disappearance?A.Uncaring.B.Supportive.C.Hopeful.D.Worried.30.What can we infer (推断) from the passage?A.Alaskan glaciers will surely never be seen in the near future.B.Alaska's forests will disappear soon because of the rising temperatures.C.The hard permafrost is quite important for villages on small low islands.D.Everyone believes that human activities are the main cause of rising temperatures.(本题有5小题,每小题2分;共计10分)阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A-E 五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项) , 将其序号填入46-49题, 并完成第50题。

The capital of Egypt is Cairo. That is a really great city. It is the largest city in Africa. If you visit that city, you will find a very modern place with many cars, businesses, schools and homes.About 82 million people live in Egypt. They have a rich history. Long ago, Egyptians made it the greatest place in the world. They built pyramids. These very smart people invented ways to farm.Long ago, Egyptians were wonderful leaders who built great buildings and set up schools. They invented a special way of writing that was called hieroglyphics(象形文字). They looked like pictures instead of alphabet letters. You will still see hieroglyphics in Egypt today. But they are not used to read and write. They are a part of history.Egypt has a long history. It has been a leader for a long time. If you read Egypt's history, you will know how great this country has been.Today most Egyptians live near the banks of the Nile River. This is where the only good land to farm. It's a great place to live in. There are other parts that are difficult to live—they are deserts. So not many people live there. About half of Egypt's residents(当地人)live in cities. Those big cities are in the area of the Nile River. If you go to Cairo, the biggest city, you will find millions of people.Egypt is a great county. It has a wonderful history.

You don't have a science degree but most astronauts do. Most of them are pilots too. Life in a spaceship is hard so you must have a healthy body and mind. You need to be easy-going, patient, and helpful to spend so much time in a small space with other people.What's the training like?People have to train for a year to learn how to stay healthy and safe. They practice space walking and living in zero gravity. They train in difficult conditions to learn how to solve problems and to work in a team. Everyday tasks like eating, washing and sleeping can be difficult on a spaceship. There is no running water so you have to wash with wet tissues; it's hard to enjoy the dry food that astronauts have to eat. And to sleep you must cover your eyes because the sun rises every 90 minutes on the International Space Station. You also have to tie yourself to something so you don't fly away!What health problems do astronauts have?Life in zero gravity causes changes to our bodies. Bones and muscles(肌肉)become thin and weak so you must do a lot of exercise in space to stay fit and to help the heart move blood around your body. Astronauts often get backaches because you grow in space—up to 8 centimeters! It's also common to have headaches and to feel sick,especially at the beginning. You must have vitamins to take the place of fresh fruit and vegetables. But you don't have to put on sun cream because space suits protect your skin.Are you still interested?So now you know. If you want to go to space, study hard, learn to fly and take care of your body and mind. 32.What does the writer think of the life in a spaceship?A.Interesting.B.Boring.C.Useful.D.Hard.33.What's the Chinese meaning of the underlined word "tissues"?A.衣服B.纸巾C.抹布D.食物34.Which one is true according to the passage?A.People have to train for two years to learn how to stay healthy and safe.B.Astronauts have to tie themselves to something in order not to fly away.C.Astronauts can't grow in space.D.You must put on sun cream in a spaceship.35.What is the passage mainly about?A.What we need to know to become an astronaut.B.Why young people are interested in space trips.C.What problems astronauts must solve in space.D.Why we need to train hard before a space trip.阅读理解Shu embroidery(蜀绣)is one of the most famous embroidery styles in China. It's well-known for its strong expression and smooth needlework.The characteristics are greatly influenced by geographical environment, customs and cultures. As we all know, people in Sichuan Province enjoy a slow lifestyle, so when embroidering, they are usually patient and willing to spend time on pursuing the form's intricacy(复杂精致)and elegance (优雅). This could be the reason why Shu embroidery was listed as a national-level intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产)in 2006.Making beautiful Shu embroidery products is never easy. It needs super workmanship(卓越工艺).Meng Dezhi, 59, was born to a family of embroiderers. She was one of the most talented employees at the Chengdu Shu embroidery factory. The long and repetitive nature of the process often challenges her. Even for an experienced master like Meng, finishing a piece needs several days or even a few months. And in winter, when her hands and feet are freezing, things become even more difficult, but her love for the work has encouraged Meng to continue."These experiences may sometimes discourage me, but the love for Shu embroidery always gives me courage tocontinue, "said Meng. Meng has also popularized the culture of Shu embroidery when the tradition was at the risk of fading(衰落). Many cheap products are made by modern machines.

She is the first person in China to set up a free senior high school for poor girls.Zhang Guimei was born in 1957 in Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang Province. In 1974, she reached Y unnan Province and began to work there the next year. In 1983, she became a school teacher. She loved her job and worked very hard. She was strict but kind to all her students.While Zhang Guimei was working in Huaping County, she noticed that many girls from poor families couldn't afford to go to school. So she came up with the idea of starting a free school for them. However, many people thought she was crazy at first, because they believed that starting a school was not easy and needed lots of money. In order to raise money, she had to ask for help everywhere and save every coin at the same time. With the help of the local government, she started Huaping Senior High School for Girls in 2008. The school provides not only free education but also necessary daily items(用品)for its students.Zhang Guimei has been so busy that she can hardly have any time for a good rest since her school was started. She loves her students and there is a special teacher-student relationship between them. Her students all call her"mother".After years of hard work, the school has made great achievements. In the past fifteen years, as many as 2, 000 poor girls from the school have entered universities or colleges. As a result, their life has been changed.45.Is Zhang Guimei the first person in China to set up a free senior high school for poor girls?46.How old is Zhang Guimei now?47.How did she start a free senior high school for poor girls successfully?48.What do you think of Zhang Guimei?

behaviours.Winston Churchill noted:"We shape our buildings and then our buildings shape us."Buildings and the city environment have been found to influence our general emotion and wellbeing.Architects(建筑师)have often been focused on their imagination and design above how a space may influence its residents(居住者).However,there are a number of architects moving in a new direction,interested in creating people﹣centred building designs.Research carried out by Colin Ellard of the University of Waterloo,Canada,has found that people are often strongly affected by building plex (复杂的)and interesting appearance design influences people much more positively than simple design.Many studies have shown the value of green space and woodland in a city environment and how they can help to reduce the stress that comes with city life.The visual (视觉的)complexity of green spaces plays into Ellard's theory that the human brain prefers complex and lively environment.Another study in Iceland in 2023 found that streets which vary because of their architecture were the most emotionally pleasant.This all leads to the idea that we want variation in our environments.Another research has shown that growing up in an city environment can double a person's chance of developing problems such as worry.It shows that the stress of city life is something that needs to be considered and new spaces should be designed with stress management and wellness in mind.It would be wrong to say style isn't important.We want things which look fantastic as well as work practically,but things can go wrong and influence us negatively if style becomes more important than the building itself.Architects who want to show their skills must consider the purpose of the building.For example,schools should look bright with open spaces,green areas and comfortable corners for reading and learning.No one wants a building to create bad feelings.If we can create spaces which appeal to residents,as well as achieving their purpose,then the end result is much more satisfying and much more likely to stand the test of time.Our cities are set to grow year on year with no end in sight,so we should make sure new development s are built more with people in mind.(1)What do you know about architects from the passage?A.They are running out of creativity.B.Their stress needs to be considered.C.They have to take tests from time to time.D.Their design starts to focus on human feelings.(2)The writer probably agrees that .A.there should be more buildings in green colour in citiesB.visually complex design is more likely to create stressC.it is a must to consider the building itself and its styleD.buildings with simple appearance bring us comfort(3)The words"appeal to"in the last paragraph are closest in meaning to .A.pleaseB.houseC.shapeD.upset(4)What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A.To criticize architects for their great mistakes.B.To call for the people﹣centred design of buildings.C.To suggest how to make architectures emotionally pleasant.D.To stress the importance of architectures to a city environment.15.A 16﹣year﹣old boy named Li Tao lived in a small town in China.One day,while Li Tao was doing his science homework,he came up with a great idea.He worked out a way to make a new type of power supply(供应)for his town,which had a problem with its electricity supply.To make his idea come true,Li Tao began to experiment at home.He was so confident that nothing could stop him from inventing.He made and took apart many models.Even though he faced lots of challenges and failures,he didn't give up.He fixed his mistakes,changed his plans,and kept working hard.After two years of hard work,he finally succeeded.He made a small device(设备)that could change wind power into electrical power successfully.This was a new,environmentally﹣friendly way for his town's power problem.News about Li Tao's invention quickly spread around his school and town,and everyone really took pride in his achievement.The group of science﹣technology of the town decided to help him improve the invention.He was invited to give a speech to encourage other teenagers to learn more about science and be more creative in the Science and Technology Meeting.His story encourages teenagers that being young is not a barrier(阻碍)to achieve their dreams.Even a common teenager can do something amazing!(1)What was the problem of the town where Li Tao lived?A.Water pollution.B.Experiment device testing.C.Electricity supply.D.Wind power lightning protection.(2)When Li Tao faced challenges and failures,he .A.encouraged other teenagers to join himB.fixed his mistakes and kept working hardC.gave a speech and learnt more about scienceD.asked the group of science﹣technology for help(3)How did people feel after knowing Li Tao's invention?A.Excited.B.Proud.C.Confident.D.Surprised.16.We rely on our memory for sharing stories with friends or learning from our past experiences.Yet evidence shows that our memory isn't as consistent as we'd like to believe.There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events.And whenever these mistakes happen,they can have long﹣term effects on how we'll recall that memory in the future.Take storytelling for example.When we describe our memories to other people,we might ask ourselves whether it's important to get the facts straight,or whether we only want to make the listener laugh.And we might change the story's details depending on the listener's attitudes.It isn't only the message that changes,but sometimes it's also the memory itself.This is known as the"audience﹣tuning effect",showing us how our memories can change automatically over time,as a product of how,when,and why we access them.In fact,sometimes simply the act of repeating a memory can be exactly what makes it easy to change.This is known as"retrieval﹣enhanced suggestibility".In a typical study of this effect,participants watched a short film,then took a memory test a few days later.But during the days between watching the film and taking the final test,two other things happened.First,half of the participants took a practice memory test.Second,all of the participants were given a description of the film to read,which contained some false details.Participants who took a practice memory test shortly before reading the false information were more likely to reproduce this false information inthe final memory test.Why might this be?One theory is that repeating our memories of past events can temporarily make those memories malleable.In other words,retrieving (找回)a memory might be a bit like taking ice﹣cream out of the freezer and leaving it in direct sunlight for a while.By the time our memory goes back into the freezer,it might have naturally become a little misshapen,especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.These findings lead us to wonder how much our most treasured memories have changed since the very first time we remembered them.Remembering is an act of storytelling,after all.And our memories are only ever as reliable as the most recent story we told ourselves.(1)The writer takes storytelling for example to prove that .A.it is impossible to change the listener's attitudesB.it is important to describe our memories directlyC.we can make other people laugh to y telling storiesD.we may change our memories according to the listener(2)What do you know about memory from the passage?A.Our memories can change our personalities.B.Our memories can correct mistakes on their own.C.We can take a practice memory test to strengthen our memories.D.We can reproduce the information while repeating our memories.(3)The word"malleable"in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to .A.reasonableB.valuableC.changeableD.controllable17.Clean electricity is the power of the future,but engineers are facing a big challenge.How can we store electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining?In some cases,the answer will be batteries;but in other cases,it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth.It's always been everywhere since the beginning of time.Nobody knew about it until around 1700,when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in hisgarden.Newton asked himself the question:"Why did that apple fall to the ground?" And he soon worked out the answer.Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so,because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the centre of the earth.Newton decided to call this force "gravity",a word that then just meant "weight".Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries,long before Newton first explained it.In particular,they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate(灌溉)field s and bring water to cities.They knew that water would flow downhill,but never uphill,so they built structures to use the force of gravity most effectively.In 1907,engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose:to store energy.They pumped(用泵抽送)water up a hill,where they stored it in a lake.Then when they needed more electricity,they let the water come back down the hill,driving electric turbines(涡轮机)as it fell.The idea was just so simple,and it is now used in many parts of the world.However,the problem is that "pumped storage" hydro schemes(抽水蓄能水电方案)can't be built just anywhere,as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity.Gravity﹣stored electricity is maybe half the price of battery﹣stored electricity,but even so it is not cheap.In order to make gravity more effective,we would need to increase its force—and that,of course,is quite impossible.Yet gravity is not the only way of storing energy,and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air...and even sand!Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time,as storage is the essential partner of wind power and solar power.We need clean electricity 24 hours a day,not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.(1)The word "abundant" in Paragraph 2 probably means .A.expensiveB.environmentalC.famousD.plentiful(2)From the passage,we can know that .A.gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricityB."pumped storage" hydro schemes can be built on small hillsC.engineers in Switzerland first stored energy by using gravity creativelyD.experts have already made gravity more effective by increasing its force(3)Why does the author write this passage?A.To tell the story of finding gravity.B.To show the importance of gravity.C.To call on people to use clean electricity.D.To introduce a good way to store electricity.四.书面表达(共1小题)18.某英文网站正在开展以"突破自我,我拼过"为主题的征文活动。

AThe Red Cross is an international organization. It cares for the people who suffer because of war, hunger, illness, natural disasters, etc. It is always among the first to provide help to victims when a flood happens or an earthquake occurs.The idea of the Red Cross came to Henri Dunant, a Swiss banker, in 1859. On a hot June day of that year, Henri Dunant was travelling on business in Northern Italy. There he saw one of the bloodiest battles of the 19th century. About 40,000 men were killed in a battle on June 24, 1859, and another 40,000 were left to die due to lack of medical care. Immediately Henri Dunant organized the local people to gather the wounded and care for them in homes and churches. These people became the first volunteers of the Red Cross.When Dunant returned home, he wrote a book. In his book, he called on all nations to set up organizations to help wounded soldiers. His idea was later accepted. In 1864, The Red Cross was founded. Because of this brilliant idea, Henri Dunant, the founder of the Red Cross, became the first person ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Today the Red Cross’s work has become international and it has offices in more than 60 countries.

So the boy was short and thin.One cold morning there was much snow in the streets. A car knocked the woman down and the policemen took her to the hospital. She didn’t tell John that his father deserted(遗弃) her before he was born until she died. She left her son the name and address of his father.John found his father, Mr. Brown, in another city. He was one of the richest shopkeepers and he had to receive his son. From then on the boy lived a rich life. He ate all kinds of delicious food and wore beautiful clothes. But he didn’t go to school and could not read or write.Once his father took him to a party. He saw a newspaper lying on the floor and picked it up while others were talking about a film.

Many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. The lake water is polluted . It is in a color of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.How did this happen? First, we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains, water comes into the lake from all around. In the past, there were forests all around Lake Ponkapog, so the rainwater was clean.Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use chemicals in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning or killing insects. There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines or shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. When it rains, the rainwater picks up all the chemicals from homes and businesses and then carries them into the lake. They pollute the water and kill the animals.Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats. But oil and gas from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.People in Hartwell are worried. They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible?A clean lake must have clean rainwater going into it. Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at work. They must also be more careful about gas and oil and other chemicals on the ground. And they mustn’t use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change people’s lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again.46.

As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. In this way he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and asked God for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up(哽咽)and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son, but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands. ”For a moment there was silence on the other and of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent ––teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?”I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”51.
