News tells people what’s going on around the world. Papers help people communicate ideas. Stories try to teach a lesson. However, poems teach us how to feel. Their themes (主题) similarly appear in our daily lives and their words are beautiful, full of feelings. On March 21 each year people have a day to celebrate poems. Here are two poems and let’s see how you feel about them.24．Usually people can ________ when reading a story.A．know what’s happening aroundB．receive others’ ideasC．learn a lesson D．learn how to feel25．We can know from the passage that ________.A．the two poems have he some theme B．the first poem was written by a father C．people celebrate poems on March 22 each year D．poems’ themes don’t appear in readers’ everyday life26．According to the second poem, the people in the past ________.A．told lies B．told stories C．followed others D．kept their words 27．The best title for Poem 2 may be ________.A．Slower in the Past B．Crowded Streets C．Love You So D．Celebrate GrowthHaving worked at this store for three years, I thought I had become successful in dealing with all kinds of customers. I strongly believed that a friendly smile and warm words wouldhelp me get through any situation. But an old woman changed what I thought of myself.Walking as if each step were painful, the old woman slowly pushed the glass door and entered our store. She was out of breath and coughed badly. On such a cold night, she was wearing only a dress, a thin sweater, and black slippers (拖鞋) with no socks on her feet, which showed how poor and painful her life was. After a while, she picked up a can of corn and looked carefully at it.At that moment, I decided to be a good, polite worker and asked her if she needed help.“Can I help you?” I tried to keep smiling although there was a strong smell from her clothes.“I need some food, please!” she repeated, “Any kind. I haven’t eaten since yesterday.”“Are you looking for corn? Ninety-five cents.” I said in my most helpful voice.“Sorry, I can’t pay,” she said.At that moment, the working rules came into my mind: Remain polite, but do not let customers get the best of you, because they will know that you are in control. I replied to her, “I’m sorry, but I can’t give away anything for free.” The old woman’s hands trembled (发抖) as she put the can back on the shelf and left.For the rest of that day, the image and voice of the women haunted me, which made it difficult for me to pay attention to my work. I had been young, healthy and proud. She had been old, weak and hopeless. I wish with all my heart that I had acted like a human being rather than a robot at that time.28．The writer thought that ________ before the old woman came.A．he still needed to improve himself a lotB．working at the store is not interesting at allC．he was the most experienced worker at the storeD．he was good at dealing with the relationship with customers29．Which word can be used to describe the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the old woman? A．Patient.B．Scared.C．Excited.D．Impolite. 30．The underlined phrase “haunted me” in the last paragraph is probably the same as“________”.A．brought out the best in me B．kept coming to my mind C．cheered me up D．caused trouble for me31．We can infer from the passage that ________.A．the writer would be kicked off the company B．the old woman lived a poor and painful lifeC．the writer regretted not helping the old woman D．the old woman could never get anything for free“Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get.” The surprise is part of the fun. Now blind box toys are bringing the magic of surprise, winning the hearts of large numbers of fans. Most of the customers are women aged from 18 to 35 according to the data.A blind box toy is hidden inside and the toy cannot be seen from the outside, so you have no idea what will be inside. Only after opening the box can you see what you have bought.One reason for their popularity is because of their cute appearances. Cute cartoon characters come in small sizes, making them suitable for display (展示) almost anywhere. And the little toys can bring people back to their wonderful childhood.Also, the mystery and uncertainty of the process also attracts people. When people open this simple little box, they may be disappointed, but the uncertainty is part of the fun. “Opening a blind box is a surprise for our boring daily lives. You are expecting to get what you want until you open the box”, said Jiang Fan, a 22-year-old college student.Some young people think that blind boxes help them make friends with those who share the same interests and find a sense of belonging.However, we should pay more attention to the hidden danger behind blind box toys. Many people especially teenagers spend too much money on the toys, because they want to open more blind boxes and hope for a better one. Some fans even collect so many toys that they can create their own “doll wall”, which may make them buy many of the toys. We can pay for joy, but not for impulse (冲动), so it’s necessary for us to think more about the value.32．The writer leads in the topic by ________.A．listing numbers B．using the famous saying C．comparing two facts D．showing an example 33．According to the passage, we can know that ________.A．blind boxes add much fun to people’s everyday livesB．everyone buys the blind boxes for the same reasonC．men show more interest in the blind boxes than womenD．we can know exactly what’s inside before opening the blind boxes34．The blind box toys attract many people for the following reasons except ________. A．cute appearances B．the surprise of the opening process C．learning about different cultures D．getting a sense of belonging 35．What’s the writer’s purpose of writing Paragraph 6?A．To encourage more people to buy blind boxes.B．To help people know more about blind boxes.C．To show the reasons for the popularity of blind boxes.D．To warn people to think twice before buying blind boxes.Two months ago, Starbucks apologized (道歉) to the public for asking four local policemen eating food outside a Starbucks store to leave, which caused lots of discussions on the Internet.Reports show some people threw eggs to the store and some stopped the cleaning staff from cleaning up to express their dissatisfaction and anger with the company.Such behavior should not happen, nor is it necessary. We don’t support any radical (激进的) action. And it is believed this is not what most Chinese people would like to see, nor does it stand for the general public opinion in China.In fact, the backlash (激烈反应) about Starbucks’ behavior happened for some reasons. Starbucks said that there was no “driving away the police”, and it was just a “misunderstanding” caused by the improper communication between the staff and the policemen. The way Starbucks apologized didn’t take the feelings of the Chinese public seriously.As an American company that has been deeply developed in China for many years, Starbucks should have a full understanding of the basic values of Chinese society and respectthem. People in China respect the hard work of the police and show their kindness to the police, but the Starbucks staff drove away the four policemen and asked them to find another place, complaining that they could have a negative influence on the store’s image. That is another reason why many people were still angry with what the company did.________ It once apologized to the public for some other events such as selling food that went bad and not accepting coins from customers, but the result even added the oil to the fire. Starbucks should reflect on why this happens repeatedly.36．The reason why Starbucks apologized to the four policemen was that ________. A．the Starbucks staff failed to invite them to the storeB．the policemen punished the staff for their bad behaviorC．the Starbucks staff were influenced by the policemenD．the policemen were required to leave by the staff37．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE?A．Many people weren’t pleased with Starbucks.B．Starbucks should fully understand Chinese basic values.C．The writer is for the radical behavior towards Starbucks.D．Starbucks once apologized to the public for some other events.38．Which sentence is the best to put in the “________”?A．Starbucks should care more about food safety as well.B．This is not the first time for Starbucks to light a fire.C．However, that does not mean Starbucks has no problems.D．So what action should Starbucks take to deal with the terrible situation?39．The structure of the passage may be ________.(①=Para.1①=Para.2①=Para.3①=Para.4①=Para.5①=Para.6)A．B．C．D．四、补全对话7选5阅读下面对话，从文后7个选项中选择5个恰当的选项完成此对话。

The old wizard tried a lot of spells, but it didn't work.A young man heard about the problem. He went to the boy and said that he knew the solution. He gave the boy two small pieces of paper."There are two spells, my boy. Use the first before you ask others to do something, and use the second after they did it. A smile is also necessary." the young man said."Please" before his words and "Thank you" after they did it. People were very surprised that the boy could be polite. Soon, they agreed to do what the boy asked them to do.The wizard was surprised, and asked the young man about the spells."It's not magic. When I was a child, my teacher told me that without good manners one can get nothing he wants. And he was right. The boy only needed good manners to get what he wanted."29．What's the boy's problem?A．He didn't know how to use magic.B．No one listened to him when he asked them to do things.C．The wizard refused to help him.D．He wanted to learn to practice magic.30．Who helped the boy solve his problem?A．His father.B．No one.C．The young man.D．The wizard. 31．What the young man did was to _______.A．teach the boy to be polite B．teach the boy how to use spellsC．ask the people to help the boy D．tell the wizard what good manners are 32．The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means “_______”.A．不学礼，无以立B．己所不欲，勿施于人C．不在其位，不谋其政D．仁者不忧，勇者不惧The Qingming Festival, also known as Tomb Sweeping (扫墓) Day in English, is a traditional Chinese festival. It falls on April 4th this year. It is a time for Chinese people to remember and honor (向……表示敬意) the dead by visiting their tombs and making offering.Traditionally, people show their feelings by burning spirit money (纸钱). However, in order to protect the environment, some cities think of new ways to make the festival greener.Before Tomb Sweeping Day, Harbin city gave the notice about stopping the production (生产) and sale of spirit money. When people visited tombs, they offered flowers, the wind-bells or food instead of spirit money.The people in Harbin can also join in online memorial activities, such as giving flowers, lighting candles (蜡烛) and writing articles to remember the dead family members and friends.During Tomb Sweeping Day, Hainan Province began an activity to exchange visitors' spirit money for flowers.In Haikou and Sanya, many people helped tomb sweepers bring fresh flowers and took away their spirit money. "It is a good, environment-friendly and green idea. I will try it this time," said a tomb visitor, Mr. Zhang, in Sanya.People like these ideas because they cannot both honor the dead and save the environment.33．People in Harbin can't take ______ to tombs on Tomb Sweeping Day this year.A．food B．flowers C．spirit money D．wind-bells 34．From the passage, which of the following is not the way to honor the dead?A．Holding parties.B．Lighting candles.C．Making offering.D．Giving flowers.35．What is the best title for the passage?A．Some Terrible Traditional ThingsB．The Meaning of Tomb Sweeping DayC．Honoring the Dead in a Traditional WayD．Environment-friendly Tomb Sweeping DayIn my opinion, teachers have one of the most important jobs in the world. You educate the leaders of tomorrow, scientists of tomorrow, artists of tomorrow and so on. You are likely one of the most important adults (成人）in your students' lives.Any parent will tell you that their child is their most precious (宝贵的）gift. In one year, when I am sending my daughter on her first day of school, I will trust her teacher that she will return safely. Knowing that her teacher is an adult she can trust, who cares about her and who makes her excited to learn and return to school the next day. So I prepare to send my child out into the big world where she will meet new children and teachers, ready to learn and explore this big world.However, before she becomes a real student, I'd like to share with you what I hope for her teachers.Develop strong relationships with your students. Really get to know them and show an interest in them, their friends and their family life.Know your students. Learn about their dreams and encourage them. Find out your students' strengths (长处）and offer chances to use them and feel that joy of doing something they both like and are good at.Get to know your students' parents. Share with us how you prepare your students and how we can help them deal with a sometimes scary world. Those things are what draws your students to you and what gives parents comfort that their children are having a good experience at school. For many, especially the youngest, your role in your students' lives may be similar to that of a parent. Thank you for educating, loving, supporting, encouraging,challenging, and caring for our children, your students.36．The writer of this passage is possibly .A．a teacher B．a doctor C．a parent D．a child 37．We can infer from the passage that _______.A．the writer's daughter will go to school next yearB．parents don't trust teachersC．the writer has high expectations for teachersD．to be a teacher is very difficult38．Which is the best structure of the passage?(①=Para. 1 ①=Para. 2 ①=Para. 3 ①=Para. 4 ①=Para. 5 ①=Para. 6)A．B．C．D．Cold weather during winter months may stop many people from leaving home and running in the open air. But a new study shows that the drop (下降) in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, doctors say, running in cold weather helps improve one's performance.______ Two reasons are the low temperatures and strong winds. But many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures make less pressure on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate (心率) is lower than in warmer weather.Besides, the body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. This result comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary's University in London. He explains that one way to lose heat is by sweating (出汗), and that the body loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin (皮肤). But sweating puts much pressure on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it much harder to lose heat when the outsideenvironment is also warm.What's more, running in higher temperatures make heart rates faster. Scientists find that heart rates are about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperature has some advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to move blood to the skin surface in cooler temperatures, which means running needs less energy.So the most important thing for people who run in cold weather is to wear the right clothes. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important when exercising in low temperatures.39．Which of the following sentences can be put in the ______?A．Why do people like running in winter?B．Many people say running in winter is fun.C．Why do people like running in hot weather?D．Many people say running in winter is difficult.40．We can probably read the passage in a ________.A．news report B．travel diary C．history book D．health magazine 41．The writer organizes his idea mainly _________.A．by showing reasons B．by giving examplesC．by listing numbers D．by asking questions四、补全对话7选5A: Hello, Cindy! What's your plan for this winter holiday?B: I have no idea. 42 .A: I’ll take part in a social activity with my sister.B: It sounds exciting. 43 .A: No. I was a volunteer in a poor village before. The children there didn't have money to buy books.B: 44A: Yes. I bought them 60 books with my pocket money.B: What else did you do there?A: 45 And now we are good friends.B: Wow! 46 I'd like to join you.A: Great!

And I love something special — Chinese calligraphy (书法).When I was a little child, I loved to watch my grandparents write Chinese characters (汉字) with ink brushes (毛笔). Later I came to learn about many Chinese calligraphers, such as Wang Xizhi of the Jin Dynasty.At the age of 9, I joined a writing class to learn Chinese calligraphy. The teacher showed many of his calligraphy works. I told myself that I would practice hard and try to become as good as him.At first, I followed the teacher carefully. As soon as the teacher wrote a character, I wrote the same one. Before long I could write many difficult characters. I was happy and believed that I was talented at Chinese calligraphy.However, after a year of learning, although I practiced hard, the teacher pointed out some problems in my calligraphy. I thought it was just a way to improve my writing skills, but he told that Chinese calligraphy is part of Chinese culture. Besides, I thought it was just about mimicry (模仿), but he told me that Chinese calligraphy is a creation that comes from the heart. He said that writer should think carefully about what he wants to show before writing.I'm not sure if I fully understood the teacher. But from then on I spent a lot of time thinking and practicing my writing. I will go on practicing and I hope one day I can know the essence (精华) of Chinese calligraphy.47．Was the writer interested in Chinese calligraphy when he was a little child? 48．When did the writer begin to learn Chinese calligraphy?49．What did the teacher think is the essence of Chinese calligraphy?50．Do you want to learn Chinese calligraphy? Why or why not? (List at least 2 reasons.)六、根据首字母填空七、用所给单词的正确形式填空八、改写句子九、划线部分提问十、同义句转化十一、完成句子十二、短文汉语提示填空根据下面短文内容，在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词，使短文完整、通顺。

So the Jade Emperor ( 玉皇大帝) decided to choose twelve animals to represent (代表) the twelve years. All animals were welcome to compete. The first twelve animals to get to the Heavens (天庭) would be chosen as the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac (生肖).Scene OneRat (鼠)：Let’s join in the competition, Cat! We could win!Cat: We must leave early in the morning. But the only problem is that I’m too lazy to get up early.Rat: There’s nothing to worry about. I’ll wake you up.

We are going to win!Rat: We sure are! (Then he jumps off Ox’s head and runs ahead!)Ox: (Angrily) You are not a true friend.

Ox, the second.As more animals came, there were soon twelve animals.Scene FourThe Rat walked home with the first prize, proudly.Cat: Does the competition begin?

Feeling excited, Tony says, “You bet I did. Sam told me two days ago.”Who are Linda and Tony talking about? It could be anybody. I can tell you that what they are saying is not nice and not even true. Still, there are so many students like Linda and Tony here at Linton High School. Many of their conversations are gossips(流言蜚语). I have noticed two results of gossip: it can hurt people and it can cause social pressure in a group.An important bad result of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic—being in love, trouble at home, or even dropping out—that a person would like to keep as a secret. The more embarrassing(尴尬的) the secret is, the more exciting the gossip sounds. Probably the worst type of gossip is the complete lie. People often think gossipers as just not friendly, but the rumors(谣言) from their mouths hurt others a lot.Gossip can also have another result: it sets up some unwritten(不成文的), unspoken rules about how people should act. This means that if everybody around you is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can tell that wearing or saying something similar will get you into the same kind of trouble. Such small daily things will never appear in any book to tell you about what you should or shouldn’t do.If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? That answer is that it gives us satisfaction. Sharing the latest rumor can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t. Similarly, hearing it can make a person feel like part of the “in-group”. In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).There are hundreds of cases showing that gossips can cause pressure and even more serious problems. And you’ll never know how people will react(做出反应) to the gossips in different situations. So the next time you want to gossip, think about what result it might have.32．The writer uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to ________.A．lead to the topic B．tell his opinion C．describe the characters D．surprise the readers33．In the writer’s opinion, many people like to gossip because it ________.A．stops them from being hurt by others B．helps them to make more friends C．makes them better at telling stories D．gives them a feeling of satisfaction 34．We can infer from the passage that ________.A．Linda and Tony are just a very small part of the students who like to gossipB．Cindy may not keep long hair after hearing her friends saying it was sillyC．gossips are usually about the true stories that a person wants to share with others D．sharing and hearing gossips can make a person have a feeling of satisfaction35．What advice does the writer give in the last paragraph?A．Stay away from gossipers.B．Never become a gossiper.C．Don’t let gossip become lies.D．Gossip when it’s necessary.Sometimes we turn to others for advice on major career (职业) decisions. But they may direct us in the wrong direction.Why did so much career advice finally misguide us? ________ We often listen to the wrong group. I have watched many students depend on their parents and grandparents for advice, forgetting that they grew up in the time when it was common to spend a whole career in one workplace.Then what about going to people who are qualified (具备资历的) to give advice? The truth is that even they hardly know what’s right for us. Advisors give their advice depending too much on their own experiences instead of thinking from our perspective (视角).But is there anything we can do? You have probably noticed that you are wiser when giving advice to others than you are in making decisions for yourself. You are not alone. It’s hard for us to make a good decision because we stand too close to our own problems. The truth here is that one of the best ways to get better advice is to give it. Sure enough researchers find that we become wiser when we think about our problems from a third person perspective. One reason may be that it’s easier for us to keep a cool head. And it also gives us more motivation ( 动力) to hold on to the last.If you want to get better career advice, you can start by considering what you would tell someone else with a similar question. Listen to the advice you give to others. It’s usually the advice you need to take yourself. And it might be the best way to motivate yourself, too. 36．According to the writer, many advisors give their advice depending too much on________.A．TV news B．others’ opinions C．their own experiences D．online information37．Which of the following sentences can be put in ________?A．The answer may lie behind different jobs we chooseB．The problem may start with who we turn to for adviceC．It might have something to do with our agesD．The truth is that we never take what we are given38．According to the writer, we are wiser when advising others because ________.A．we know ourselves better than others B．we want other people to like us C．we are older and smarter than others D．we stand farther from others’ problems 39．The structure(结构) of the passage may be ________.A．B．C．D．四、补全对话7选5A: May I come in, Miss Brown?B: Of course, Betty.

But instead of being stereotyped (刻板印象的) middle-aged women, they are all men in their twenties and thirties.Called Qineco, this all-male (男性) cleaning team offers services in Jiaxing, Zhejiang. Wang Ziqian, 32, set it up in May 2021, when he saw a new possibility in the home-cleaning market while working in the home decoration business.“The professional whole-space cleaning services were hard to find,” Wang said. “Cleaning is actually a job that needs much physical strength (体力), especially when moving furniture or reaching for high places. So I thought young men might be better fit for it.”After working as a cleaner himself for some time, Wang designed a seven-day training program for his workers. They learn to use different cleaning tools and skills like removing stickers (贴纸), washing curtains and putting away all kinds of things. They also have to pass a cleaning test before serving real customers.Starting with five people last year, Qineco now has 17 workers and two branches (分店). Seeing more and more young men join the business, Wang plans to open five more branches and has hope for the future.“I’m so happy to meet these young guys. They include college graduates and retired soldiers, but all take cleaning as a serious and great job,” Wang said. “Together, we are changing stereotypes about home cleaning. Professionalism and diversification (多样化) are the future.”45．Are there any women in this cleaning team?____________________________________________46．When did Wang Ziqian set up the team?____________________________________________47．What’s the main idea of the fifth paragraph(段)?
