"Curious，she asked her grandmother about it."That is the tradition of our family，"her grandmother explained."Every day，for generations（世代），we complete one act of kindness and take it down.No matter how （2）it is."Maya was interested."Why？"Her grandmother smiled，"It's a belief that through continuous kind actions，we can create a life of （3）.Every day，we find a moment of light through offering help to others，even when the world around us is dark."With admiration，Maya decided to keep the tradition.Every night，she would record her act of kindness for the day.As the years went by，Maya's entries of her kind act （4），from comforting a distressed stranger on the bus to organizing community clean﹣ups.One day，as she sat at a café，a young woman came to her."Are you Maya？"She asked politely.Maya nodded，feeling（5）.The woman went on，"Years ago，you taught me for free when my family couldn't afford lessons.Because of you，I graduated top of my class.Today，I （6）an organization providing help for students from poor families.'Maya was moved and proud.She realized her actions were creating ripples（涟漪）in ways she had never imagined.The calendar became a community legend（传奇）.Inspired by Maya，the town started a"Calendar Day"，encouraging everyone to do good.When Maya was old，she often sat with her grandchildren，turning the filled pages."This was when your grandpa and I met.I helped him find his lost dog."One day，her oldest grandchild，Sophie，looked up from the calendar."I want to （7）this，Grandma."Maya handed the calendar over.She knew the tradition would live on.Years after Maya passed，the

D.visit（7）A.praise B.report C.continue D.remember（8）A.changes B.kindness C.happiness D.achievements三．阅读理解（共4小题）14．The idea is not new that the spaces we live and work in influence our feelings and 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。

Do you know what to do if you find yourself in an earthquake?If you are inside:Quickly move under a strong desk, a strong table or along a wall. You can also go into a small room like the bathroom. This will protect you from falling things. Do not get into a lift.Don’t stand near windows, large mirrors, heavy furniture or fireplaces.If you’re outside:Move away from buildings and streetlights. These could fall on you.Squat(蹲下)and protect your head until the shaking stops.After the earthquake:Check, take care of injuries and help make sure people around you are all right.Watch out for aftershocks.Protect yourself by wearing long pants, a lon g－sleeved(长袖的)shirt and strong shoes.Listen to the radio for the latest information.31．If you are in a tall building when an earthquake happens, you’d better ______.A．run into a lift B．not stay in the bathroomC．stand near large mirrors D．not stand near windows32．If you are outside during an earthquake, _______.A．you must move into a building B．you cannot squatC．you have to stop the shaking D．you must move away from streetlights. 33．After the earthquake, you should _______.A．look after injuries B．not help the others around youC．protect yourself without wearing shoesD．not listen to the radio for the latest information34．The underlined word “aftershock s” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.A．震感B．震源C．余震D．防震35．The passage is mainly about ______.A．What to do before an earthquake takes placeB．what to do if you are in an earthquakeC．how to escape from an earthquake when you’re at homeD．how to predict an earthquake in the open airBThere are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare the prices of things in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands(品牌)when we shop.Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we are to live useful and happy lives.Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple for lunch or a pear? Will I go to school by bus or on foot? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is tastier? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes I enjoy? We make choices like this every day.We have to realize that the choices we make can affect the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people. The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies, think about this: Who else does your choice affect? 36．The main idea of this passage is ______.A．it’s important to make the right choicesB．it’s important to know how to compare pricesC．it’s important to know how to shop carefullyD．we learn everything we need to know at school37．We need “life skills” _________.A．to know how to shop carefully B．to compare brands and pricesC．to live useful and happy lives D．to learn things at school38．According to this passage, we make choices _______.A．most days B．some days C．one a day D．every day 39．Which of the following choice is more important than the others?A．Which fruit to take for lunch. B．Which subjects to work hard atC．Which T-shirt to wear to the movies. D．How to get to school.40．From the passage we know that your choices affect ______.A．you and your parents B．you and other peopleC．lots of other people D．everybody except youCTen-year-old Barack Obama was one of the only three black students at his school in Hawaii, the US. He is different from most of the other students. White girls wanted to touch his hair. A white第2页共5页boy asked him whether his father ate people.“I lied to them that my father was a Kenyan(肯尼亚)prince. But I kept asking myself who I was,” said Obama.However, 37 years later, the boy became well-known. On November 4th, , Obama became the first black president in US history with 297 electoral votes(选举团的投票).Obama was born to an African father and a white American woman from a small town in the USA in 1961. He grew up in Indonesia(印度尼西亚) and Hawaii. This unusual background made him wonder who he was. He even wanted to forget this question.With the help of his friends, Obama finally turned his life around in the university. His hard work made him a star at Harvard University.

In that school district, too many students showed up for summer school classes. There wasn’t room for all of the students. It was a very busy first day of summer school. Many different subjects were taught during summer school. On the first morning, the school suddenly realized they had a problem. They didn’t have enough teachers for all of the classes. Students wanted to take many different subjects in summer school. These subjects included math, English, science and gym. The subjects that the school could offer depended on how many teachers they had.School officials did not expect so many students to show up for summer School. About three thousand children arrived on the first morning. Many more students were not enrolled(录取). They showed up anyway. The extra students surprised the schoolmaster.Many students spent four hours in the school gym. They were waiting to be placed in different classes. This made many of the students unhappy.A mother was angry that her son didn’t get the classes that he registered(注册) for. She said that he registered three months ago. Instead of history, her son was enrolled in gym. Her son was happy about it, however. He knew that he wouldn’t have any homework! His mother wanted a better system for summer school. She said that the school was new. They should have had a more effective plan.Students took summer school classes for many reasons. Some were trying to improve a grade. Some were preparing to take a special exam. Students must pass this exam to graduate from high school.

According to the text, what will happen in the school district next year?A. More subjects will be changed in the school.B. More students will pass the graduation exam.C. A better plan for summer school will be made.D. Teachers in the school will become more patient.DThe rising costs of health care have become a problem for many countries in the world. To deal with this problem, it is recommended that a big part of the government's health budget be used for health education and disease prevention instead of treatment. Actually, many kinds of diseases are preventable in many ways and preventing a disease is usually much cheaper than treating it. For example, people could avoid catching a cold if they dressed warmly when the weather starts getting cold. But many people get sick because they fail to do so, and have to spend money seeing a doctor.Daily habits like eating more healthy food would have kept millions of families from becoming bankrupt if the patients had taken measures for early prevention. For instance, keeping a balanced diet, such as not consuming too much animal fat and insuring a steady intake of vegetables and fruits, seems to be quite important.One very effective and costless way of prevention is regular exercise, which is necessary for a healthy mind and body. Regular exercise, such as running, walking, and playing sports is a good way to make people feel better or reduce stress.In addition, health education plays a key role in improving people's health. By giving people more information about health, countries could help people understand the importance of disease prevention and ways to achieve it. For example, knowing one's family medical history is an effective way to help keep healthy. Information about health problems among close relatives will make them aware of what they should do to prevent certain diseases through lifestyle changes, which will work before it is too late.However, stressing disease prevention does not mean medical treatment is unimportant. After all, prevention and treatment are just two different means toward the same effect. In conclusion, we could save money on health care and treat patients more successfully if our country spends more money on health prevention and education.38．What’s the best title of the passage?A．Prevention or Education?B．Prevention or Treatment?C．Health or Illness?D．Exercise or Illness?39．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “bankrupt’’?
