The right reasons are to lead a healthy and happy life and not just to become popular. The best and most effective way to lose weight for anybody is by a slow and natural way. Here are some tips for achieving your weight goal.Eating more slowly has a lot of benefits. It allows us to chew food better. Properly chewed food helps us digest(消化)better. It also allows us to enjoy the process of eating. Chewing food thoroughly also helps us burn calories faster.Junk food is filled with sugar and calories，which not only add fat to our body but also increase our blood pressure. Replace junk food with more nutritious food like fruits and vegetables.Water is very important to help make for an overall healthy body. The common rule of thumb is to drink no less than 6 to 8 glasses of water a day. Do not mistake drinking more water with junk drink.Setting a monthly goal is always a good idea. Do not make it too big as to make it nearly impossible. If the target is not met，it could only lead to disappointment. A goal of 1 or 2 pounds a month is realistic and could be met easily.One important reminder，when you do any weight loss program，always make sure that any method would not lead to any serious health problem.Title：__71__ for weight lossⅠ.ThemePeople should lose weight by a__72__and natural way for our __73__and happiness，but not just for popularityⅡ.

This was no ordinary seed; it had dreams, aspirations, much like you and I. Its dream was to become a tree, towering and proud, providing shade to those who sought refuge under its branches.One day, a gust of wind carried the seed away from its home. It traveled far and wide, over hills and valleys, across rivers and through forests. Eventually, the seed landed in a fertile patch of soil. There it lay dormant for what seemed an eternity, waiting for the right conditions to begin its transformation.Spring arrived with showers of rain, and the seed felt the warmth of thesun for the first time. It began to sprout, pushing through the earth with all its might until it emerged as a tiny green shoot. As seasons passed, the shoot grew taller and stronger, its roots delving deep into the ground, anchoring it firmly.Years went by, and the seed had indeed become the tree it always dreamed of being. Its branches spread wide, offering shelter to birds and squirrels. In the summer, its leaves provided a canopy of shade, and in the fall, they turned golden before falling to the ground, enriching the soil for future generations.The journey of the seed teaches us about patience, perseverance, and the power of dreams. It shows us that even the smallest beginnings can lead to the most magnificent endings, if we stay true to our inner calling and nurture our potential.Questions:1.What was the seed’s dream?2.How did the seed travel to a new location?3.Describe the process of the seed becoming a tree.4.What lessons can be learned from the seed’s journey?5.Why do you think the author chose a seed as the main character of this story?Answers:1.The seed’s dream was to become a tall and proud tree providing shade to others.2.The seed traveled to a new location carried by a gust of wind.3.The seed sprouted after lying dormant, then grew into a shoot with thehelp of spring rains and sunlight, eventually becoming a strong tree over many years.4.Lessons include the importance of patience, perseverance, nurturing one’s potential, and staying true to one’s aspirations.5.The seed was chosen because it symbolizes growth from small beginnings to magnificent endings, making it a relatable metaphor for personal development.五、语言运用第一节 _ 完形填空（15分）Oxford Treehouse Edition English Grade 1A Mid-term Exam PaperV.

The Willow Creek Library stood tall on the main street, its wooden sign reading “Willow Creek Library” in elegant, ornate letters. The library had seen many changes over the years, but one thing remained constant: its warm and inviting atmosphere.One sunny afternoon, a young girl named Lily wandered into the library. She had always been fascinated by the smell of old books and the quiet rustle of pages turning. As she browsed the aisles, she came across a dusty, leather-bound book with a title she c ouldn’t quite make out. Curiosity got the better of her,and she opened it to find a collection of tales from a bygone era.Lily spent hours reading the book, enchanted by the stories of love, adventure, and courage. As she finished the last page, she realized that the book had a mysterious message written on the inside cover. It read, “The secret to life lies in the pages of this book. Find the hidden key to unlock its true power.”Determined to uncover the secret, Lily began her search. She visited the library every day, reading every book she could find, hoping to find the key. One day, while reading a book about ancient history, she stumbled upon a paragraph that mentioned a hidden room in the library’s attic. She quickly climbed the rickety stairs to the attic and found a small, locked box.Inside the box was a key with a peculiar design. Lily knew that this must be the key to unlock the secret. She carefully inserted it into the lock on the leather-bound book and turned it. To her amazement, the book opened to reveal a map of the town. The map had a red X marked on a specific location.Lily followed the map to the old, abandoned mill on the outskirts of town. As she approached the mill, she noticed a series of symbols carved into the stone wall. These symbols matched the design on the key she had found in the box. With a deep breath, she pushed open the heavy wooden door and stepped inside.Inside the mill, Lily found a hidden chamber filled with ancient artifacts and a single, glowing orb. She knew this must be the source of the library’s magic. As she touched the orb, a soft, warm light enveloped her, and she felta surge of energy flow through her.In that moment, Lily understood the true power of the library. It was not just a place to read books, but a portal to a world of endless possibilities. And with the knowledge she had gained, she knew that she was ready to face whatever challenges life might bring.Cloze Test Question:15.The library had been a local landmark for generations, making ita_______fixture in the town.A. celebratedB. prominentC. traditionalD. historicalAnswer: B. prominent六、语言运用第二节 _ 语法填空（15分）Sure, I can create a sample grammar completion exercise for you as if it were part of an English midterm exam for a senior high school student using the Oxford译林version curriculum.

They are long cloths on which pictures of horses and scriptures（经文）are printed. People often put these flags on top of houses, or leave them where a vehicle accident happened. They prevent evil spirits from injuring people again.A wind-horse flag can be white, yellow, red, green or blue. These five colors symbolizethe five elements that form the world; earth, water, fire, wind and sky. Another explanations that red is the sun, green is the grassland, yellow is the earth, blue is the sky, and white is the cloud.The wind-horse flag originated with a monk who obtained a scripture from India. When he crossed a river, he carelessly dropped the scripture into the water. He quickly saved the scripture and spread it out on a big rock to dry as he sat in meditation（默想）. Suddenly violent thunder sounded like drums. The monk felt liberated（解放的）from all of his sadness, and when he opened his eyes he saw that the scripture had been blown into the sky by a strong wind. Finally, he went straight to heaven.In order to honor the spirit of the monk and the Buddhist scripture, people printed the scripture on a piece of cloth and hung it up between the sky and the earth as though the scripture was flying in the sky.We also know why people put the wind-horse flag on the top of mountains and houses.The Tibetan ancestors had a very great idea about chanting scripture. They thought people not only could chant scripture, but also the five elements. The wind-home flag is a good example of how they use the wind to blow the flag, which means that the wind also chants scripture.56. The second paragraph is mainly about the wind-hor se flag’s ________.A. colorsB. stylesC. materialsD. functions57. What happened when the monk meditated?A. He felt very sad about his mistake.B. The scripture was blown into the sky.C. He was punished by the gods.D. Many wind-house flags were flying.58. According to the passage, the origin of the wind-horse flag is based on ________.A. a historical eventB. an ancient customC. a religious taleD. a vehicle accident59. Why do people put wind-horse flags on the top of mountains and houses?A. The wind-house flags are safer there.B. The wind-house flags can be nearer to the sky.C. People can see the wind-house flags more clearly.D. People believe the wind can also chant scripture.BThe Booking Notes of the Play "the Age of Innocence"Price: $10BOOKINGThere are four easy ways to book seats for performance:------in personThe Box Office is open Monday to Saturday, 10 a. m. -8 p. m.-------by telephoneRing 01324976 to reserve your tickets or to pay by credit card (Visa, MasterCard and Amex accepted)------by postSimply complete the booking form and return it to Global Theatre Box Office.------on lineComplete the on-line booking form at www.

That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to friends. They tell your friends what is important to you. By sharing then you help your friend know you better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with problems. Something may go wrong at school. T alking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends; you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.63.

After hundreds of failed attempts, he did not give up. His unwavering dedication to the pursuit of knowledge and innovation led to the creation of a device that has revolutionized the world. Similarly, athletes who train relentlessly, despite setbacks and injuries, are able to achieve remarkable feats on the field.In our daily lives, we encounter challenges and obstacles that can test our resolve. However, it is through perseverance that we can overcome these difficulties and emerge stronger. Perseverance helps us develop resilience and teaches us that success often comes after repeated attempts and failures. In conclusion, perseverance is an essential ingredient for success. It is the driving force that propels us forward, enabling us to realize our dreams and aspirations. Therefore, let us cultivate the habit of perseverance and never give up on our goals, no matter how difficult they may seem. Example:In my own life, I have experienced the importance of perseverance firsthand. When I decided to learn a new language, I faced numerous challenges. The grammar was complex, and the vocabulary seemed endless. However, I persevered and continued to study every day, little by little. Over time, my efforts began to pay off, and I gradually gained fluency in the language. This experience taught me that with perseverance, even the most dauntingtasks can be accomplished.。

They are long cloths on which pictures of horses and scriptures（经文）are printed. People often put these flags on top of houses, or leave them where a vehicle accident happened. They prevent evil spirits from injuring people again.A wind-horse flag can be white, yellow, red, green or blue. These five colors symbolizethe five elements that form the world; earth, water, fire, wind and sky. Another explanations that red is the sun, green is the grassland, yellow is the earth, blue is the sky, and white is the cloud.The wind-horse flag originated with a monk who obtained a scripture from India. When he crossed a river, he carelessly dropped the scripture into the water. He quickly saved the scripture and spread it out on a big rock to dry as he sat in meditation（默想）. Suddenly violent thunder sounded like drums. The monk felt liberated（解放的）from all of his sadness, and when he opened his eyes he saw that the scripture had been blown into the sky by a strong wind. Finally, he went straight to heaven.In order to honor the spirit of the monk and the Buddhist scripture, people printed the scripture on a piece of cloth and hung it up between the sky and the earth as though the scripture was flying in the sky.We also know why people put the wind-horse flag on the top of mountains and houses.The Tibetan ancestors had a very great idea about chanting scripture. They thought people not only could chant scripture, but also the five elements. The wind-home flag is a good example of how they use the wind to blow the flag, which means that the wind also chants scripture.56. The second paragraph is mainly about the wind-horse flag’s ________.A. colorsB. stylesC. materialsD. functions57. What happened when the monk meditated?A. He felt very sad about his mistake.B. The scripture was blown into the sky.C. He was punished by the gods.D. Many wind-house flags were flying.58. According to the passage, the origin of the wind-horse flag is based on ________.A. a historical eventB. an ancient customC. a religious taleD. a vehicle accident59. Why do people put wind-horse flags on the top of mountains and houses?A. The wind-house flags are safer there.B. The wind-house flags can be nearer to the sky.C. People can see the wind-house flags more clearly.D. People believe the wind can also chant scripture.BThe Booking Notes of the Play "the Age of Innocence"Price: $10BOOKINGThere are four easy ways to book seats for performance:------in personThe Box Office is open Monday to Saturday, 10 a. m. -8 p. m.-------by telephoneRing 01324976 to reserve your tickets or to pay by credit card (Visa, MasterCard and Amex accepted)------by postSimply complete the booking form and return it to Global Theatre Box Office.------on lineComplete the on-line booking form at www.

That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.Generosity means sharing and makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to friends. They tell your friends what is important to you. By sharing then you help your friend know you better.Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with problems. Something may go wrong at school. T alking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends; you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.63. Some friendships don’t last long because __________.A. there are too many people who want to make friendsB. those (who never give others friendships) receive no friendship from othersC. those who give others friendship receive friendship from othersD. they don’t know friendship is something serious64.

Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.D.A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.65. The best title of this passage is __________.A.

AIn the book The Best Little Girl in the World, written by Steven Levenkron, Kessa has a serious eating disorder called anorexia nervosa. Many people have this eating disorder, and this book shows its harmful effects.Kessa is a normal 15-year-old girl. She has many talents, especially for dancing. She has danced for many years and loves it. One day her dance teacher tells her to eat right. Once Kessa hears this, she takes things too far. Instead of cutting down on snacks and junk food, she decides not to eat at all. She does not eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner. One after another, she loses the pounds, and her body becomes thinner and thinner. She loses weight to a point where she is unhealthy.As her poor eating habits continue, her parents start interfering ( 干涉). They are puzzled by their daughter’s strict diet. Her parents try everything, but Kessa’s dieting continues. She makes up her mind to have no fat on her body.Kessa’s doctor and parents finally decide to take her to the hospital. She is now so skinny that she can hardly walk. There, she goes through a nightmare ( 噩梦). Though she has been taken good care of, all Kessa can think about is how much weight she might gain. Throughout the rest of the book, Kessa goes through many troubles in order to cure her eating disorder.This book, I think, can help to prevent people from doing this to themselves. It shows the trouble that people go through just to be slimmer, and all the scary things they must experience to be cured. This is a moving and encouraging story of a determined girl and her fight to survive, and I think every teenager should read it.( ) 21. Anorexia nervosa must be .A. a kind of foodB. an important person in the bookC. another name of Kessa’sD. a kind of illness( ) 22. Knowing Kessa’s poor eating habits, her parents must be .A. worriedB. happyC. angryD. proud( ) 23. According to this passage, teenagers are supposed .A. not to take anythingB. to drink only waterC. to eat properlyD. to have junk foodBTopping the class academically was certainly an advantage. Studying was a breeze for Nigel. The reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had put into. It began when he was selected to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected for the nationwide competition. Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest becausehe liked playing with the Lego sets and making something out of them. Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding the robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition as well as another competitor, Alicia, from a neighbouring school. His early intentionswere forgotten. Getting the thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to befriend Alicia. Unaware of his intentions, Alicia told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even helped her to put the finishing touches to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His robot looked even better than Alicia’s and it was able to bounce a ball with its arm—something Alicia had failed to do.On the day of the competition, he saw Alicia. Everything dawned on her the minute she saw him among the competitors. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over her.The flashbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel’s face. The robot had performed actions so unique and different that the specialists’ judgements were the same. Nigel was so pleased with himself that he did not even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him. Without her, he would never have won the competition.( ) 24. What reward did Nigel receive for doing well in his school work?A.He was offered a part-time job.B.He helped in the computer laboratories.C.He helped his teachers construct a robot.D.He was honoured with a scholarship.( ) 25. Nigel’s original intention of joining the contest was to .A. construct a robot with the Lego setsB. be a great honour to his schoolC. be the top student of the schoolD. win the thousand-dollar prize( ) 26. What i s the author’s attitude towards Nigel’s behavour?A. Critical.B. Indifferent.C. Favourable. C. Uncertain.CWe have a strange interest in the concept of perfection. “If I have the perfect parents and perfect grades, then I would be happy.” Under cultural influence, we seek what we can’t have without remembering that we don’t actually need to be perfect. Imperfection allows us to be human.Parents, teachers and other high-achieving peers will have us believe that we must be perfect if we wish to remain competitive. However, what job or school requires you to have a 2400 SAT, 4.0 GPA and develop a cure for some form of cancer by the age of 18? Although these would be great achievements, are they worth the cost of sleep? We feel like we need the perfect grades to get into the perfect college that will provide us with the perfect education necessary to get the perfect job. With this misconception ( 误解), when writing our resumes ( 简历), we then seek out experiences that we think may help build a good name for ourselves. Feeding on our thirst for perfection, some college and career industries have been set up claiming to help us reach our goals.T he truth is that you only need to be good enough. You won’t become an expert at anything if you spend your time trying to succeed in everything you do. You only become an expert when you devote your time to the one or two projects that truly bring you joy.As members of this society, we have a responsibility to be “excellent” in what we do, not “perfect”. Although perfection can be a goal, it should not be the only goal. We only have 24 hours in a day. Thus, we need to prioritize ( 优先选择) what we want to do and cut out the activities we cannot do. If you enjoy debating, take a law class and see how it suits you. If you enjoy cooking, experiment in the kitchen and see what you can make!Try as hard as you can and let your future worry about itself. Worry about your task at hand and you will be successful in achieving your dreams. Above all, remember that you are going to be okay.( ) 27.
