Ronny’s BookRonny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mom. However, Ronny was different from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn’t 16 like other kids in his grade.I worked with all the students in Ronny’s class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Ronny’s 17 , I’d give him a silent smile, and he’d fly out of his chair. He sat veryclose to me and opened the book 18 he was opening a treasure nobody had ever seen.I watched his fingers move slowly under each letter as he struggled (努力) to read out. Every time he 19 to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would spread across his face and his eyes would shine with 20 . It broke my heart each and every time.A few weeks 21 the school year ended, I held an awards ceremony (颁奖典礼). I 22 Ronny with a book — one of those Little Golden Books that only cost $5. Tears (眼泪）ran down his face as he held the book close to him and went 23 to his seat. I stayed with the class for the rest of the day. Ronny never let go of (放开) the 24 , not once. It never left his hands.A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I 25 Ronny on a chair near the playground, the book open in his lap. His teacher said, “ He hasn’t put that book down since you gave it to him. Do you know that’s his 26 book he’s ever actually owned?”Keeping back my tears, I walked towards Ronny, placed my hand on his shoulder and asked, “Will you read me your book, Ronny?”And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more 27 than I’d ever thought possible from him. The pages were already dog-eared (卷角的), like the book had been read thousands of 28 already. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfaction, “29 book!"What a powerful contribution the writer of that Little Golden Book had made in the life of a disadvantaged child. At that moment, I knew I would get 30 about my own writing and do what that writer had done, and probably still does — care enough to write a story that changes a child’s life, care enough to make a difference.16.

BIf you are given only 1 yuan, could you live in a city for oneday? It seems this may be a little difficult. But students from Xi’andid it.On April 10, more than 60 students from the Middle School Attached to Northwestern Polytechnical University took part in the One Yuan Metropolis Survival. The charitable organization (慈善组织) for teenagers called Imperceptible Education held this activity. Students not only have to live, but they also have to deal with a lot of hard tasks. It has happened in eight cities and is going to four others, including Beijing, in May.To make money, many students looked for part-time jobs and saw how hard life was. Zhang Qiyue, 14, asked more than 10 restaurants for a job and finally got one chance. “We were upset when they said no. But gradually (逐渐地), we got used to it,” he said. After being a waiter for an hour, he got 25 yuan.Some made use of their talents(才能) by singing and dancing in parks or shopping malls. Many people who walked by took notice and helped them. Zhao Jiacheng, 14, drew pictures and made paper crafts (手工). “This showed it’s important to learn a special skill,” he said.Living was hard, but finishing the tasks wasn’t any easier. They went to different places to finish tasks in a short time. The most amazing one was when they had to exchange things worth thousands yuan with only a piece of paper in half an hour. “We learned how to persuade others. From a balloon to a cake to a bottle of yogurt … after almost 20 tries, we got an expensive necklace ,” he said. They will give all of the money they made to poor schools in Tibet.36.

Is it the Harry Potter seriesor Secret Garden? According to the Guinness World Records, the XinhuaDictionary, published by the Commercial Press in China, is the world’s mostpopular dictionary and the best-selling book.In 1950, Chinese language experts(专家) and scholars, Wei Jiangongand Ye Shengtao, started to edit(编辑) the Xinhua Dictionary. There was a lot of discussion, research and paper work. Some hand scripts (稿件) were checked again and again like compositions, People’s Daily reported. Many people’s hard work and interesting stories went into making the dictionary.In 1953, the first Xinhua Dictionary was published. Today, 567 million copies of the dictionary have been sold worldwide.However, revisions (修订) to the dictionary continue to be made. According to Yu Guilin from Commercial Press, editors(编辑) usually summarize (总结) the meaning of words again while revising. If the example sentences are out of date, editors need to have experiences and make new examples. “Togive a correct explanation of the word ‘焗油(deep condition)’ , one editor went to a barber shop (理发店) to experience it for himself,” Yu told the Beijing Times. So far, the Xinhua Dictionary has been revised 11 times.To keep up with the times, some popular and widely used internet words are also added to the dictionary. For example, in the 11th edition, the phrases “晒工资(show off salary)”and “晒照片(show off pictures)” were included.All these efforts create the “National Dictionary” of China. The Xinhua Dictionary is not only a useful tool for generations of Chinese people. It also helps foreigners who are learning the Chinese language and culture.41.

time，especially during weekends，since Canadian teachers often give little homework．So how do Canadian teenagers spend their weekends？Well，volunteering makes up most of their free time．In Canada，volunteering is a quite common thing among people of all ages，as they believe that being helpful is one of the most important qualities to have．There are many kindsof volunteer work．Chances to help are everywhere，including in schools，shopping，malls，or even people's gardens．Now，I'm volunteering for a charity （慈善机构）．My job is to help the teachers at the charity's Chinese language school．I teach in a preschool class，where students are aged from3 to 6．When I first started，I was quite nervous as I'd never worked with little kids before．Then，as time went on，I became more familiar with the students．One teacher asked me to help the youngest girl in the class draw a picture based on the word"grateful"，As I was drawing and talking with her，I felt warm and peaceful and suddenly realized that it was not that difficult to work with children．When the class was over，I breathed out deeply，feeling really excited and even a little bit proud of what I'd done．V olunteering gives us a chance to change someone's life，including our own．It gives us the satisfaction of helping others．V olunteering is also a great way to give back to society while developing social skills and meaningful experience for the days ahead：That's also the reason why Canadian high school students have to volunteer for at least 40 hours in order to graduate．I think helping others is always good．（1）Canadian students spend their weekends quite diffidently from Chinese students．（2）It's normal for Canadians to offer help in different places．（3）Now，the writer is volunteering to teach the kids in a primary school．（4）The writer managed to help a girl in the class，and the teacher was very satisfied．（5）40 hours' volunteer work is one of the requirements for high school graduation in

As all serious rock-paper-scissors players know, there’s more to the game than50 , ” he said.Many people think the possibility of winning seems almost the same as the chances of 51 .Actually, the result of the game isn’t random（随机）. This is because human behavior isn’t random. There are patterns in 52 people make decisions.A study at Zhejiang University, in China, looked at how people play rock paper scissors.360 students took part in hundreds of games. 53 found two key patterns.

He handed out the papers with the text facing down as usual. Once he handed them all out, he asked his students to turn over the page to begin the test. To everyone’s surprise, there were no questions printed on the paper but a black dot（．）in the center of the page.Seeing the expression on everyone’s face, Professor White said, “I want you to write what you see there.” The students had to get started. After ten minutes, the professor took all the answer papers and started reading each one of them aloud in front of all the students. All of them described the black dot, trying to explain its position in the middle of the paper.After all the answers had been read, the classroom was silent. “I just wanted to give you something to think about,” said Professor White. “No one wrote about the white part of the paper. Everyone focused on the black dot.”“The same thing happens in our lives,” the professor continued. “Life is a gift. We always have reasons to celebrate, from our friends around us to the wonderful things we see every day. However, we always focus on the dark dots, the health problems that trouble us, a broken relationship with a family member. The dark dots are very small, but they are the ones that pollute our minds. Take your eyes away from the black dots in your life. Enjoy each second that life gives you!”57．There was nothing but a black dot in the center of the test paper.58．It took students 10 minutes to finish the test after understanding what the teacher meant well.59．Professor White was silent because no students wrote about the white part of the paper. 60．Black dots like health problems and broken relationship in our lives might pollute our minds.61．The story mainly tells us that we need to enjoy our life and take the dark dots seriously.十、阅读单选Our names are an important part of our ID．Parents think over and over again when naming their children, hoping to give them a name that is meaningful and reflects their child’s personality.

Many types of fruit and vegetables like chili grew only in one place. So why are they all over the world?Five thousand years ago, carrots only grew in Afghanistan and most were purple. Only afew were orange as they look like today! Farmers in the Netherlands were looking for a fruit or vegetable to stand for their king, William of Orange, and orange carrots were just what they were looking for—they became the grandfather of all modem carrots.Many plants only grow in certain places on Earth, often deep in the forest. The home of potatoes is in the mountains of the Andes in South America. Bananas come from Papua New Guinea and lemons grow wild in China. Corn isn’t from China, but South America.But once people realized that many of these plants were good to eat, they took them far from the places where they grew. Fruit, especially, interested thirsty travelers. Arab businessmen transported different fruits and vegetables around the world, such as oranges, which they took from Asia to countries far away such as Spain. The Spanish returned from South America with many new types of food, including chocolate and chili.People were not often sure what to do with these new fruits and vegetables, or used them for different purposes from today. Carrots were used not as food but as medicine to protect people from poison or even (it was believed) to make people fall in love. The first tomatoes and pineapples were grown not as food but to make the garden look pretty. And many people were worried about potatoes—although they are good for us, their leaves are poisonous and poorer people believed they could be used for black magic. In Germany, people only began eating potatoes when the king ordered that people who did not eat them would have their ears and noses cut off!Today, we are so used to our different types of food that we don’t think about where they came from. But for each pineapple, potato or carrot we eat, there is a long history! 67．Why are carrots we see today orange?A．Because people didn’t like the color of purple carrots.B．Because orange carrots were the grandpa of modem carrots.C．Because there were some connections with William of Orange.68．South America is the home of ________.① carrots ② lemons ③ chili ④ potatoes⑤ bananas ⑥corn ⑦ oranges ⑧ chocolateA．①③⑤⑧B．②④⑥⑦C．③④⑥⑧69．Who played the most important role in making the food worldwide according to the passage?A．Thirsty travelers. B．Arab businessmen. C．The Spanish.70．About the purposes of food, which statement is TRUE?A．People used to take carrots as poisonous medicine.B．Pineapples were planted to make gardens beautiful.C．Potatoes were used to bring bad luck to poor people.71．The main idea of the passage is ________.A．how the food spread B．where the home of food is C．what food was used for十一、根据首字母填空72．After t________ more than seven months in space, Tianwen-1 is one step closer to Mars. 73．When everything seems to go a________ you, just remember to focus on the good sides. 74．China has s________ in controlling the new outbreak of COVID-19 and won a high praise.75．Failing to deal with your rubbish p________ in Chengdu, you may have to pay up to 500 yuan after March 1st.76．The new d________ like the huge golden mask show the seat of Sanxingdui Ruins is probably the capital of the ancient Shu.十二、填写适当的单词补全对话A: Hey, David, what’s up? Can I help you?B: It’s our project about Zhang Guimei. 77．what to write about her upsets me. You know there’s tons of information about her since she was 78．with the title “ Role Model of the Times” .A: Why was she given this title? Could you tell me about it?B: She is the headmaster of Huaping High School in Lijiang, which was set up in 2008 by her to give free education for girls.A: Built a school? Does she have a lot of 79．? I mean personal belongings like cars, houses or money.B: Well, that’s quite opposite. To be 80．, she doesn’t own any of these things, and even has to live at school with the students since 2008. She has spent most of her pay on her students. A: But how and why? What made her do all of these?B: It’s said about 20 years ago she 81．to meet a 13-year-old girl who was about to get married. Zhang tried to stop it but all the 82．she made was of no help.A: I got it. And I know, poor families there spend whatever they have on educating their83．if they think education is necessary. So she had the idea of starting a school for girls because of this chance meeting.B: Yes, but there is surely more than that. Up to now, more than 1, 800 girls who would have been 84．to continue their studies after nine-year required education by rule have entered universities from her school.A: Well, she did do a great job and it must be hard work for her. I am deeply touched.B: Me too. When I listened to her story, I couldn’t keep my tears. How did she manage to get what she wanted 85．finally as she herself has serious health problems? Maybe no one could imagine that!A: She is our real role model and she is 86．of her title.B: I quite agree. Influenced by her, many of her students have chosen to teach in poor areas after graduation, while some even went back to teach in her high school. Wait, I think I have already got ideas of what to write. Thanks for talking with me.A: My pleasure! I am learning too.十三、用单词的正确形式完成短文Whether it is for a special festival, to express thanks or to just let someone know that you care about them, giving gifts is a common custom. There may be 87．in the purpose of giving gifts, but the traditions are different from country to country. A gift of respect(尊敬) in one place may be considered 88．in another. Let’s take a look at three special gift-giving traditions.IndiaIf you 89．to someone’s home in India, you should bring a small gift, whether it’s a box of chocolates or some flowers. Gifts shouldn’t be put in black or white colors, because they are considered 90．. Instead, use bright colors such as green, red or yellow. When giving money for any event, it should have an odd number value such as 1, 3, 5, 7 … That’s believed to bring good luck. For the host, instead of receiving a gift with both hands, Indians generally only use their right hands because left hands are considered 91．. This exactly has something to do with the using of left hand when in the washroom.JapanFor most Japanese, the manner of giving presents is more important than the gifts 92．. The correct way is to give or receive gifts with both hands. 93．politeness and thanks, those who are getting the gift may turn it down once or twice before finally 94．it. Every gift should be put in a good box. That’s because uncovered gifts are considered not good. They should give gifts in pairs, 95．four just like in China. Lucky numbers also include eight. Eight is said to bring the luck to get success, especially in the hope of making a large amount of money.Native AmericaWhile it may be common for guests to prepare gifts for hosts, this is different in Native American communities. From weddings to birthday celebrations, 96．are the ones who receive gifts. Gifts are usually homemade arts and works — made by hand to show love, care, and thanks.十四、补全短文6选5“I tell myself to sleep, but my eyes always stay open until 2 am.” said Li Pengfei, 29. He works at a foreign company in Shenzhen. He has been having problems sleeping for over two years.March 19 is World Sleep Day. Sleep is important because it gives our bodies time to return to a normal state from the stress of living. 97．The incidence （发生率）of sleep disorder in the country is 38. 2 percent, well above the international level of 27 percent.98．According to a report by CSRS in 2020, the average amount of sleeping time for 69.3 percent of young people in China is only 6.4 hours each night.99．In Li’s case, strong competition in his field is one of the things keeping him awake at night. “ Our roles can be filled of new people easily.” he said. “ Ou r jobs ask us to keep learning new knowledge.” 100．Many young people stay up late surfing the internet andwatching videos.“ With a typical 8 to 8 in the office, I always arrive home at 9 pm. I won’t just go to sleep and repeat the same routine. A few hours of ‘ me time’ is quite necessary.” said Li Mingxin, 27, who works at a company in Beijing. 101．It depends on how old you are. For adults, 7 to 9 hours would be fine. According to the Ministry of Education, primary school students should get at least 10 hours of sleep a night. Junior high school students are suggested to sleep for 9 hours.In a word, although sleep seems to be a common and small thing. It is very important. It has great influence on our life. We should make our body get the rest it should have.A．But many people across China are losing sleep, according to the China Sleep Research Society（CSRS）.B．Another cause is the overuse of electronic devices, such as smartphones and tablets. C．He has a different opinion, but he still gives himself less time to sleep.D．Huge pressure from work and school is the main reason for this.E.So how many hours of sleep are enough for good health?F.This problem is especially serious among young people.十五、填空William Shakespeare is one of the best known writers in history, but is he the greatest?Born in Startford-upon-Avon, England, in 1564, he later moved to London, where he wrote his plays and where they were performed. Many people lost themselves in reading and watching Hamlet, Macbeth, A Midsum mer Night’s Dream and Romeo and Juliet. They are still being performed today all over the world. Many people consider him to be the greatest writer in history. However, others question whether he should still be held in such high regard.So is Shakespeare the greatest writer now and future?十六、看图作文107．在人生的十字路口，我们都可能收到别人的建议，如何对待？即将毕业的你同样会收到各种建议，如关于：择校、交友、学习、特长发展、生涯规划等等。

The task was to tell us, in no more than 1,000 words, what scientific advance they would most like to see in their lifetimes, and why it mattered to them.The response was phenomenal: we received 661 entries. Some entrants hoped that science would make their lifetimes much longer than they can currently expect. Many looked forward to work that will end climate change. Others wanted to see advances in our understanding of human history, crop growth, space exploration, and medical technologies. The ideas were inspiring.The winner is a compelling essay by Yasmin Ali, a PhD student at the University of Nottingham, UK. Ali submitted a piece on Beethoven, her brother’s hearing loss and the science which she hoped would one day cure it. It stood out to the judges as a reminder of why many scientists do research: to make the world better tomorrow than it is today.All essays were judged by a group of Nature editors. The top ten submissions were then ranked by three members of a separate judging group: Magdalena Skipper, editor-in-chief of Nature; Faith Osier, a researcher; and Jess Wade, a physicist. All submissions were kept anonymous throughout the process.We also selected two runners-up(非冠军的获奖者).Physicist Robert Schittkoat Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, proposes that nuclear fusion(核聚变) could offer a solution to the climate crisis, in a piece that effortlessly mixes grand ambition with gentle humour. And chemist Matthew Zajac at the University of Chicagoin Illinois wrote a powerful personal account of why he wants to see advances in the field of same-sex reproduction.The results show that today’s young scientists have a wealth of ideas, talent and conviction that research can transform their world. We look forward to seeing what they do next.4. What’s the essay competition about?A. The scientific expectation.B. The fantastic scientific ideas.C. The dreams of future life.D.

The two runners-up were selected for the same field they chose.7. What isthe author’s attitude to the competitors’ ideas about science expectations?A. Doubtful.B. Favorable.C. Impossible.D. Ignorant.CHave you ever thrown a camel? Camels are large and heavy animals so it would be hard to throw. But in the French-speaking Democratic Republic ofthe Congo, “to throw a camel” is a way of saying “to make a spelling mistake”.In the past, a phrase like that was not accepted by the French government as an official French term. But recently, the French Ministry of Culture worked on a new kind of dictionary that accepts the idea that many people outside of France speak the language. The language has changed over time and is different in places like Ivory Coast in West Africa or Quebec in Cana-da, compared to how it is in ParisA new online dictionary, called the French speakers’ dictionary, includes new French words from around the world. It was released on March 18—just in time for International French Speaker’s Day on March 20.Supporters say the new Internet dictionary is more democratic than earlier French dictionaries that only showed the way highly educated French people spoke. The new dictionary includes unofficial words like “pourriel”, which means an unwanted email if you are in Canada. It is a word based on “courriel”, which just means an email.French President Emmanuel Macron proposed the idea of the dictionary in 2018. It now contains about 600.000 terms, Roselyne Bachelot is the French Culture Minister. She said the dictionary is not just for France's 67 million citizens, but for the 300 million French speakers worldwide.The aim, supporters say, is to recognize the way language changes. Words and expressions included in the dictionary come from over 50 countries—even from the United States Some people in the southern U. S. state of Louisiana speak French.People can see the dictionary on a website or with an app. Users can also send in new words they think should be included. Official dictionaries produced by the French Academy in Paris were first published hundreds of years ago and are regularly updated.8. What do we mean if we say a man “throws a camel” in French?A.
