“Simply avoid her. “ Abby listened closely, as I continued, “If she says any more 41 things to you, I’ll go to your teacher. I’ll make sure you are never in a (n) 42 where you have to sit next to her again.”
At that time, Allyson, my then eight-year-old, came to 43 us and listened to every word. Neither of my daughters interrupted (打断) as I finished my heartfelt speech, filled with 44 wisdom. Then, as I was telling them what I thought right, Allyson’s real words of 45 came about. “Mom,” she said, “I was just thinking. Maybe Abby should be that girl’s 46 so that she can bear (容忍) her. In that way, she can let that girl see forgiveness (谅解) and 47 through her.”
Hmm, I became the 48 . At that moment, I realized that although I was wearing the “mother’s hat”, the “hat” certainly didn’t make me 49 all the time. In fact, I wanted to pull that hat over my face and hide myself so that they couldn’t see my 50 look.
“Yes, that’s a good point,” I commented (评论), 51 a half smile at my girls. “Abby, you deal with this situation the way you think is right. “ “OK, “ she said, giving me a quick hug before walking out of the door and off to school. “Bye, Mom! “ Allyson called, 52 her big sister to go out of the door.
I was left alone—in my slippers (拖鞋). In those following 53 moments, I was lost in thought. I did feel
54 my two amazing daughters—small in size but big in heart. Sometimes our children have great lessons to teach us— 55 we are willing to listen.
That lesson came more than ten years ago, and I’ll never forget how much I have learned from my children.

四、阅读理解

A
A Space Hotel Will Open Soon
A Californian company wants to build a hotel in orbit (天体等运行的轨道). The space
hotel will open in 2027. It will be able to carry up to 400 people. The space hotel will be
shaped like a large wheel, with 24 space pods (舱) around the outside of the 200-meter-wide
structure. The pods will be used for restaurants, bars, gyms, rooms for tourists, laboratories
for research and so on.
Researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai have made a new type of cloth that
can be used as a digital display (数字显示) . Professor Peng Huisheng and his team have
spent 10 years trying to make “digital cloth” with a silver-plated yarn (银镀纱) and a
kind of thread. The cloth could allow a driver to view a GPS map on their arm while driving. It could also help people communicate better if they have language barriers or disabilities.
A Gift Box Made from Mycelium
A UK company Seedlip has released (发布) a gift box that uses packaging (包装材
料) made from mycelium (菌丝体). Seedlip is working with Magical Mushroom
Company to make the packaging. Magical Mushroom adds mycelium to natural
materials that farmers no longer need. As the mycelium tries to break the materials down, it grows threads (线) that form a strong and light material that can be used as packaging. And after being used, it breaks down naturally in about 40 days in a garden.
56. In which section will you read the material above?
A. ADVERTISEMENT
B. TECHNOLOGY
C. CULTURE
D. HISTORY
57. What would be a good heading for the second piece of news?

60. From the materials above, it’s clear that _______.

B
On my first round-the-world trip in 2006, I planned everything out in advance. I knew where I was going, staying for how long, and how I would get there. And then half-way through I ditched the plan and went with the flow (随大流) . Over the years, how I plan my travel has changed. Now, I’m a last-minute planner and seldom travel with any plan.
Traveling without a plan gives you great flexibility (灵活性). Since nothing is booked far in advance, you can turn to something different when you change your mind or something better comes along. I changed my plans to meet a friend on an island in Thailand and stayed for a month. I wouldn’t have had that experience if I had kept to my planned schedule.
“ ★” — they overplan their trips. Their whole journey is scheduled. Two days here, three days there. I understand why people do that. When time is short, you want to see as much as possible. You don’t want to waste a single second.
Actually, it is better to slow down your pace. Spending more time in one place allows you to get a better feel for the rhythm of life. You can visit at a more relaxed pace, see more than just the attractions, and open up your schedule to the happy accidents of travel.
When I first made my travel plan, I tried to include everything in it. Then I realized it was unrealistic, and reviewed my plan. I came up with a list of one or two things I want to see each day and spaced everything out. It’s an important lesson to learn. I think the best trip plan is to work out the general path you want to take, book the first few nights of your trip, and let your travels unfold from there. This way you are never locked into a certain place if your feelings change.
61. What does the underlined word “ditched” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Considered
B. Discussed
C. Dropped
D. Prepared
62. What can we learn about the author from the text?
A. He leads a life without any pressure.
B. He is willing to accept the unexpected while traveling.
C. He buries himself into traveling.
D. He prefers to follow others when traveling.
63. Which one should be put into “ ★”.
A. However, most new travelers are the opposite
B. Since preparations can give people a sense of safety.
C. Because the more you plan, the more you’ll enjoy.
D. Therefore everyone loves the trips with many details.
64. Which opinion might the author agree with most?
A. “Nowadays, the Special Force Tourism is so popular, people can admire so many attractions and taste lots of local snacks in a short time, I want to try it too!”
B. “My car broke down by accident on the way to my hotel, so I had to walk. But the view along the coast was so fascinating!”
C. “Warm clothes, flashlight, spare shoes. I have prepared everything, so there will be a smooth tour as planned”
D. “I can’t stand it anymore! There are always so many difficulties in finding details about the attractions and restaurants!”
65. What is the best title for the text?

B. Traveling: A Race Against The Clock
C. In Travel, Less Is More
D. In Travel, Let It Be
C
”I killed the wrong goose (鹅), “ a man complained in his letter about the Xinhua
Dictionary. It was the 1970s. The man wanted to kill a male goose. He didn’t know the
difference between male and female goose, so he turned to the dictionary for help. It read,
“The male geese have a yellow bump on their head.”
The man chose a goose that matched the description. But when he opened its stomach,
many eggs poured out, and the man was angry.
The dictionary wasn’t totally wrong. However, it didn’t make it clear that all geese have a yellow bump on their head. Males have just bigger ones. The dictionary’s editors corrected it in the next edition (版本) .
Since its birth in 1953, the Xinhua Dictionary has been used as an encyclopedia (百科全书) by people across China. More than 600 million copies have been sold.
In 1949, about 80 percent of China’s population was uneducated. Xinhua Dictionary succeeded in opening up knowledge to millions of Chinese people. “I had no education when I was little. The dictionary helped me get into high school. “ Said a woman in her 50s.
Over the past 50 years, the dictionary has been improved in each edition. “鲟”was once explained as”can be eaten”. Later editions made it clear that it was “an animal in danger”. The meaning of “豹”is no longer “wild animals whose fur can be made into clothes”. New editions have included many new meanings. The character “晒” (to dry something under the sun) , for example, now has a second meaning: to share. Popular expressions like “初心”have also been added to dictionary.
In a way, Xinhua hasn’t just explained words; it has shaped the way Chinese people think. According to an article in Southern Weekly, “When children write about a spring outing, the sky is always ‘cloudless for ten
thousand miles’. They will always ‘sing and dance’ on the way. “ “Both sentences, “ the editor added, “ are from examples in the Xinhua Dictionary.”
66. The man killed the wrong goose because __________.
A. the dictionary was completely wrong
B. he didn’t follow the Xinhua Dictionary
C. the description in the dictionary was not clear
D. male and female geese are of no difference 67. What is mainly talked about the Xinhua Dictionary In paragraph 6?
A. Its popularity
B. Its birthday
C. Its price
D. Its future
68. The writer mentioned the women in her 50s to show the Xinhua Dictionary __________.
A. has provided people with high school education
B. has sold well over the past 50 years
C. has been corrected little by little
D. has brought knowledge to many Chinese people
69. “晒”has a second meaning in the new edition. Which of the underlined word has the closest meaning?
A. Don’t use the door until the paint is dry.
B. She likes to post her life on WeChat Moments.
C. I can feel the heat of the sun rays.
D. Share equally the sweets among the children. 70
The writer’s writing purpose it to __________. A. sell more of the Xinhua Dictionary B. shaped the way Chinese people think
C. list the examples in Xinhua Dictionary
D. Introduce the influence of the Xinhua Dictionary
五、词与短语填空
仔细阅读下面五个句子，然后用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使每个句子在结构、句义和逻辑上正确。

(提示：方框中有二个单词或短语使多余的。

75. This helped to spread the ____________ of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world. 六、综合填空
阅读下面短文，根据所给首字母、上下文或括号内单词等提示，在空白处填入适当的单词。

每个空只能填一个词。

Here comes the ____________ (78) (simple) solution: school uniforms.

However, I learned how to stand out by expressing myself, ____________ (82) my personality, art, and sports. I did not know I could draw until the sixth grade.
