The word itself means a bicycle built with saddles for two riders sitting one behind the other. However, when we learn a foreign language, we can find a native speaker who wishes to learn our languages. So we both get a chance to practice. This is the tandem exchange.For example, I’m a native English speaker but I want to learn Spanish. So I go to a tandem meeting. There I can find a native Spanish speaker who wants to improve his or her English. Then we become “tandem” partners. I speak English with my Spanish tandem partner for about an hour and help him or her with some English problems. After that, we speak Spanish for an hour, too. The idea of this language exchange is great because we can learn something about a language that we may not learn in class. This is the main reason why we can choose the tandem exchange as a way to learn a new language.In the tandem exchange, we can also read passages with our partner. This way we can not only practice our pronunciation but also understand the meaning of difficult words in other languages. We can then have conversations about the passages in order to practice our speaking and listening.So I advise you to participate in the tandem exchange. If there’s no foreigner around you, online tandem exchange is also a good choice. Join in the tandem exchange and enjoy the opportunity（机会）of learning new languages and understanding the cultures of other countries!( ) 1. If you are Chinese, you want to learn Japanese. Which of the following is your tandem partner?A. JapaneseB. EnglishmanC. FrenchmanD. American( ) 2. Which of the following is a tandem bicycle?A. B. C. D.( ) 3. What is the main reason for choosing the tandem exchange?A. We can make more friends.B. We can learn something about a language that we may not learn in class.C. We can improve our pronunciation.D. We can learn Spanish in the tandem exchange.( ) 4. Which language skill is NOT practiced in the tandem exchange according to the passage?A. Speaking.B. Writing.C. Reading.D. Listening.( ) 5. The underlined phrase “participate in” means “”.A. take inB. make upC. take part inD. give up(B)According to a new survey, students’ safety has become a big problem. Nearly 50% of students say they are worried about robbery on the way to and from school. Now in main big cities in China ,some schools have taught an unusual lesson: self-protection. Students like this lesson because there are no exams or boring classes. And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens.Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No. 25 Middle School, gives young students advice on how to deal with danger.If you are robbedKeep calm. If you can not cry for help or run away. Give the robber your money. Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later.If you are in a traffic accidentIf a car hits you. You should remember the car number. If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents before you let the rider go. This is because you don't know how seriously you are hurt.If it is raining hard and there is lightingDon’t stay in high places and stay away from trees.When there is a fireGet away as fast as yon can. Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. Do not take the lift.If someone is drowningIf you can’t swim, don’t get into the water. Cry out for help.Remember that danger is never as far away as you think. Take care of yourself at all time!( )1.

One of the most significant impacts of smartphones is the increase in social media usage. Social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have become an integral part of our daily routine, allowing us to connect with friends and family, share updates, and stay informed about current events.However, the widespread use of social media has also raised concerns about its effects on mental health. Studies have shown that excessive social media use can lead to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. The constant compari son with others’ seemingly perfect lives can be overwhelming and detrimental to one’s mental well-being.Despite the negative effects, social media also offers numerous benefits. It has become a powerful tool for social change, enabling individuals to raise awareness about important issues and mobilize communities for action. Moreover, social media can be a source of inspiration and support, connecting people who share similar interests or experiences.One of the most interesting developments in social media is the rise of influencers. Influencers are individuals who have gained a significant following on social media platforms due to their expertise or uniqueperspectives. They use their influence to promote products, share advice, and advocate for causes.

Smartphones, tablets, and computers have become integral parts of daily life. However, this increased screen time has raised concerns about its impact onchildren’s sleep patterns. A recent study investigates the correlation between screen time and sleep quality in adolescents.Body:The study involved 1000 adolescents aged 13 to 16. Participants were asked to keep a sleep diary for one week, detailing their screen usage before bedtime. Researchers found that those who used screens for more than two hours before going to bed had significantly lower sleep quality than those who did not. The study also revealed that the type of screen used had no significant impact on sleep quality, suggesting that it’s the overall screen time that matters.One of the key findings was that the blue light emitted by screens can interfere with the production of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep. This disruption in melatonin production can lead to difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep throughout the night.Conclusion:The study concludes that limiting screen time before bedtime is crucial for maintaining healthy sleep patterns in adolescents. Recommendations include setting a “screen-free” hour before bedtime and ensuring that screens are turned off at least an hour before going to sleep.Questions:1.What is the main focus of the article?A. The benefits of technology in children’s educationB. The impact of screen time on children’s sleepC. The role of smartphones in daily lifeD. The importance of melatonin in sleep regulation2.According to the study, what is the primary factor affecting sleep quality in adolescents who use screens before bedtime?A. The type of screen usedB. The amount of screen timeC. The time of day the screen is usedD. The content viewed on the screen3.What is the recommended action to improve sleep quality in adolescents according to the study?A. Increase screen time before bedtimeB. Use screens only during the dayC. Turn off all screens at least an hour before bedtimeD. Limit screen time to one hour before bedtimeAnswers:1.B2.B3.C三、完型填空（15分）III.Cloze Test (Finish the following passage by filling in each blank with the correct form of the words given in the brackets.)(10 points)Directions: Read the following passage and fill in the blanks with the appropriate forms of the words given in the brackets.

While on the train, he went into a carriage (车厢) to have lunch and chose to remain in the carriage. He didn’t know that the carriage was only for people heading to Wuhan.Several hours later, when the train arrived in Wuhan, Dalian was asked to get off, as he was in the special carriage. Although he was surprised, he didn’t want to cause trouble and got off the carriage with just a single bag.Because of the epidemic, Wuhan had been locked down. So Dalian couldn’t find a hotel to stay in. Feeling at a loss, he saw a notice online looking for volunteers to work in hospitals. Dalian decided to give it a try.He soon became a volunteer in Wuhan No.1 Hospital. He was responsible for (对……负责) taking out rubbish, sweeping the floor, disinfecting (消毒) the hospital, dealing with used protective suits (防护服) and bringing meals to patients.The young man, reportedly from northeast China, had to work 12 hours every day, changing his protective suit three times a day. While working, he couldn’t drink anything or go to the bathroom. He also had to have close contact with infected patients, which is risky (冒风险的).Dalian was afraid of getting infected at first. “When I entered the wards (病房), I was kind of frozen (僵硬的) and felt like I couldn’t move,” he said. But after he saw more patients get better, his fear gradually went away.Dalian’s story has gone viral (走红的) online. People were surprised by his experience, and described him as having “a heart of gold”.26. Why did Dalian have to get off in Wuhan in the passage?A. Because he was in the wrong carriage.B. Because he bought the wrong train ticket.C. Because he chose to have lunch in Wuhan.D. Because he went to Wuhan for a business trip.27. Dalian did many things as a volunteer in Wuhan No.1 Hospital EXCEPT __________.A. bringing meals to doctorsB. dealing with used protective suitsC. disinfecting the hospitalD. taking out rubbish and sweeping the floor28. What does this passage try to tell us?A. Everybody should be a volunteer.B. We must protect ourselves all the time.C. We should be thankful for medical workers.D. Everyone can fight the virus (病毒) in their own way.(B)Chip was in the first grade when I arrived at his school as a counselor (辅导员). It was shocking to me that he was described as an angry, uncontrollable and evil (道德败坏的) boy. How could such a little boy, after being in school only one year, be considered “evil”? Over the next several months, I came to know Chin well enough to see that he was neither evil nor uncontrollable.But, one day, Chip threw a chair at his teacher and was sent to my office. I asked him what made him do this. He replied that his teacher hated him. He felt there was no way to ever get her to like him. I asked him if he would tell his teacher this. He nodded, and we called her into my office.When the teacher came, ____________________. He then said that he knew he was a very, very bad boy, and he didn’t think anyone could ever like him. His teacher listened to him with heartfelt compassion. Then she gave him a big warm hug, telling him she didn’t hate him at all and, actually, she cared very much about him. Only sometimes Chip’s behaviour really scared her. It was clear to both Chip and me that she really meant it.I put my left arm on his shoulders and the right hand on his heart. I told him how wonderful and lovely I saw him to be. I praised how special and brave he was to express his hurt feelings.As I was speaking to him, his whole body came to rest on my right hand next to his heart. It was a moment in time unlike anything I had experienced before. From then on, I’m pleased to see his behaviour improved through the rest of school years.A child’s mind is clear and sensitive (敏感的). He receives whatever others say without protection. It is as easy to consider someone hopeless as it is to consider him able in his own special way.29. The first paragraph mainly tells us __________.A. Chip was very popular at schoolB. the teacher didn’t care about Chip at allC. Chip had no way to get others to like himD. the writer thought differently about Chip30. Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in the passage?A. she couldn’t control her feelingsB. I advised her to be more patientC. Chip became angry and crazy againD.I encouraged Chip to express his feelings31. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 shows that Chip __________.A. accepted the writerB. wanted a restC. was quite afraidD. felt a little nervous32. What can we learn from the passage?A. No pains, no gains.B. Love me, love my dog.C. Expect higher, act better.D. Where there is a will, there is a way.(C)One can hardly imagine Chai Huilong, wearing glasses and a T-shirt, as a Chinese chive (韭菜) farmer.Two years ago, Chai graduated from Tianjin College of University of Science and Technology. He took over his parents’ 20,000 square meter plot of land and set up a business: growing Chinese chives.But instead of growing Chinese chives in the traditional way, Chai plants them in garden pots and sells them directly to customers through an online store. Now his family makes 10 million yuan a year.Running a business is a dream for many young graduates. Chai is one of those young graduates who have found great career opportunities in rural areas. They make good use of their agricultural knowledge and new skills, and get support from the government.When Chai came up with the idea of growing Chinese chives, he was not sure about running his own business. But Youth Business China, a non-profit (非盈利的) program supported by the government which helps encourage youth entrepreneurship (创业精神), gave Chai courage and confidence. The program offers 30,000 to 50,000yuan in start-up funding to young people who have great ideas. It also assigns (分配) each of them a tutor who provides guidance on spending the money and running the company.“My relatives and friends regard farming as a bad job. But being a farmer is just my job,”said Chai. So far, his products have been shipped to places as far as Dubai on the Arabian Gulf. Chai is confident that he can make a greater success of this job in the future.33. Which statement is CORRECT?A. Chai Huilong plants Chinese chives in a traditional way instead of in garden pots.B. Chai Huilong decided to run his own business at the very beginning.C. His products are very popular all over the world except Dubai.D.
