underwater party?Now your dream can come true at the Florida Underwater Music Festival.It is held in July every year.It takes place at Looe Key Reel（卢港珊瑚礁）.Looe Key Reel is part of the only living coral reef in North America."This festival is a way to celebrate the coral reef.We are looking for a balance between protection of the reef and public enjoyment,"said Bill Becker,the co-founder."The more people realize what's down there,the more they're likely to protect it."Before the festival,a list of ocean songs have already been chosen.Waterproof（防水音箱）speakers are used during the festival.They are hung from boats floating above the reef.Music is piped underwater through those speakers.In fact,sound travels4.3times faster through water than in the air.That makes the experience so special.People that attend the party jump into the water.Some are dressed up as mermaids,rock stars,or even SpongeBob.Others pretend to play different kinds of musical instruments underwater.It is said that the sound is not loud,but very clear,and that the music can be felt through the body and not just through the ears.34．How often is the Florida Underwater Music Festival held?A．Once a month.B．Twice a month.C．Once a year.D．Twice a year.35．Why is the festival held?A．To make all the people in the world realize their dreams.B．To invite all the people in the world to attend a different

word"piped"most probably mean?A．reported B．sent C．spoken D．told阅读理解It's getting colder outside,and you know what that means-it's time for flu season.Why do people get more colds,flu and now COVID-19when it's very cold outside?In a new study,scientists have found the answer.It turns out that the cold air itself damages（破坏）the immune response（免疫反应）in our noses.The nose is an important part of our body's immune system.When a virus goes into the nose,the nose finds it,and the cells（细胞）there begin to create billions of simple copies of themselves called extracellular vesicles （EVs）."EVs can't divide like cells can,but they are like little mini versions of cells that can kill the viruses, "Benjamin Bleier,the author of the study from Harvard Medical School,told CBS News."They are like little arms that grab on to the viruses as you breathe them in."Then,the viruses sticking to EVs will be got out from our body in the form of snot（鼻涕）.However,when cold weather hits,the nose's"superpower"becomes less powerful.The study found that when the temperature inside the nose drops by5℃,nearly50percent of the billions of EVs will be taken out ofthe fight."Cold air makes people catch viruses more easily because you have lost half of your immunity",said Bleier.This is why we should wear masks in winter."Wearing masks can not only protect us from viruses,but it's also like wearing a sweater on our nose."Bleier said.The warmer you keep your nose,the better it works to fight against viruses.In the future,Bleier expects to see the development of medicine that build upon this new finding.Scientists may find a way to"fool the nose into thinking it has just seen a virus",Bleier said.37．Why do people get more colds when it's very cold outside?A．Because the immune response in noses disappears in cold air.B．Because there are more viruses in the cold air.C．Because cold air damages the immune system in the nose.D．Because cold air creates more copies of EVs.38．How can EVs kill the viruses?A．They make viruses smaller and weaker.B．They help get viruses out of the body with snot.C．They divide like cells and kill cold air.D．They stop people from breathing in viruses.39．How many EVs will you lose when the temperature inside the nose drops by5℃?A．Five percent of the EVs in your nose.B．50billion EVs.C．About half of the EVs in your nose.D．All of the EVs in your nose.40．Why does the writer advise us to wear masks in winter?A．To fight against viruses better.B．To wear a sweater on the nose.C．To help kill your cold directly.D．To make the nose become bigger.阅读理解"Do you think you can win this competition,Caroline?"mum asked her daughter."I don't know,mum.But I'll do my best."Caroline always did her best,but it was never enough.She was a good

asked."What about Sophie?Is she alright?What happened?""We think that Blossom is sick.Sophie had a bad fall but she was lucky.We don't know about Blossom.Her left leg doesn't look good.""Oh,I'm so sorry for Sophie,"Caroline said."What did I say?"Fred said to his sister."I knew that you were going to win this time!""I'm so happy,"said Caroline,"but I only won because Blossom was sick.And as soon as Blossom gets better,I'll be coming second place again.""Maybe Blossom will be sick again,"Fred said."What do you mean?"asked Caroline."Blossom is never sick."Fred looked embarrassed（尴尬）."Well,with a little help she can be sick...""Fred,what are you talking about?"Caroline shouted."Do you know what happened to Blossom?Tell me right away,Fred."—From The Spring Cups41．Why didn't Caroline win the

One day, as I was preparing the fruits, a little boy came by with his mom and sister. He was about eight years old, and the girl, five or six. They were looking at the fruits in front of me. I heard the kids say to their mom(in French),”They’re good!” I knew it was French, because I can speak and understand it.Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits. At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits because she was facing them,but then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked away above where his face was. Putting what I saw together, I was sure she was blind.Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits. The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman thenfelt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket. The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out.Their smile and gentle manner moved me in a way that never happened before. It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age would be picking out candies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits, as the two kids did.It was great to witness the moment, but not so great because I didn’t tell the mom how beautiful her children were in their language. This is what I regret to this day.34．The woman and her kids came to the market to buy ________ .A．fruits B．vegetables C．candies D．toys 35．According to what he saw, the writer was sure the mother couldn’t ________. A．speak B．see C．smell D．hear 36．The writer was moved because ________.A．the mother was brave to face her problems B．the kids were polite and kind to each otherC．the mother was careful in picking out things D．the kids were so willing to help their motherEveryone needs help sometimes. People depend on one another. That’s why communities have special people ready to lend a helping hand to anyone who needs it.For example, what would we do without a community fire station? If a home catches on fire as the Jackson place did last week, it might be burned down and people get hurt...or worse. We’re so lucky to have firemen to come to save people and put out the fire, safely. If the fire station hadn’t come so fast, the Jacksons might have lost everything.And what about our local police who protect our homes and valuable things? The police have helped so many families this past year, especially saving people and pets and protecting our houses and other things after the heavy rains.Think about all the other service workers we have in this community. We have people who collect waste and rubbish and keep our community sanitary. We have road workers who put up and repair traffic signs and fix holes in the streets to protect not just us but our cars! And where would this community be without the teachers in our school and the doctors, and nurses in our community hospitals?Think again about what we eat every day; think again about what we wear every day. We cannot produce them, but we use them all the time. We get a lot from all these tireless workers who keep our community running. We need these people in the community. We depend on each other. Let’s support each other and help each other. Only in this way can we make our community a better place.37．What happened to the Jacksons last week?A．Their pets were lost.B．Their car was badly burnt.C．Their house caught on fire.D．Their valuable things were stolen. 38．Who offered help to families after the heavy rains?A．Firemen.B．Doctors.C．Road workers.D．Local police. 39．What does the underlined word “sanitary” mean?A．Clean.B．Safe.C．Quiet.D．Busy. 40．What is the best title for the passage?A．Policemen Save People’s Lives B．People Depend on Each Other C．Service Workers Do Important Jobs D．Workers Keep Community RunningOne Saturday afternoon, Amy found her sisters Meg and Jo getting well dressed.

Despite (尽管) having a lot, he often felt 16 because of the endless challenges he faced.One day, a wise old man came to the 17 with 100 camels. It’s said he could solve any problem. James went to see him and said, “I’m very unsatisfied with my life. I always have business worries, family troubles and health problems. Please tell me 18 to make them disappear.”The old man smiled and said, “I’ll give you an 19 tomorrow morning. But first, can you do a small thing 20 me?” James agreed. The old man asked him to 21 the 100 camels for the night, making sure that they all sat down and rested before he could go to sleep.The next morning, the old man asked James how his night went. James said 22 , “I didn’t sleep at all. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get all the camels to 23 together. Even if I managed to get some camels to sit on one side, a few others would stand on the otherside.”“That’s 24 . As noticed last night, some camels sat down on their own, while others required some 25 , and yet many camels did not sit even after much effort. If you had come back later, you would have seen that some of the camels, even though they didn’t sit at first, 26 sat down on their own,” the old man said. James nodded.The old man continued, “Problems are just like 27 —some problems get solved by 28 , some get solved when you put in some effort, and some do not get solved even after you have tried your best. 29 such problems to time. At the right time, these problems themselves will come to an end.”James felt a sense of understanding.

If asked to write your own poem about this beautifulseason, how would you write it? Editors in Teens held an activity and invited students and one special writer, ChatGPT, to share their spring poems.Spring,Comes with green.The silent winding stream (蜿蜒的小溪), Seems to be from a dreamSpringMakes kites dance.Let me flyFollow them into the _▲__Yang Mohan, 14, JiangsuRainwater comes, everything sprouts (发芽)It’s Awakening of Insects (惊蛰)I watch earthworms crawlwhile squatting (蹲) on the groundthe whole afternoon.Then comes Fresh Green (清明) I fly kites while singing,A happy spring outing.Fish want to escape from dad’s fishing net, but in vain,only to drop in my tummyduring Grain Rain (谷雨).Yu Qianmiao, 18, ShandongSpring is here, the snow has goneNature wakes up, it’s time for fun!Blossoms bloom, and trees turn greenThe brightest colors you’ve ever seen.Birds build nests, and sing their songAs days grow warm.31．How many spring poems are shared in the activity?A．1.B．2.C．3.D．4.32．The suitable word which can be put in the line “▲” is ________.A．butterfly B．sky C．beauty D．activity 33．From these poems, we can know that ________.A．Yang Mohan’s dad has a fishing netB．Fresh Green comes after Grain RainC．ChatGPT’s peom has no rhythmsD．All the poems mention kitesModesty is a valuable quality in many cultures around the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase “毛遂自荐” seems to disagree with this.During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched (进军) on Handan, the capital of Zhao. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan asked for help from the state of Chu. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were good enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered.Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt. “How long have you been here with me?” “Three years,” Mao Sui answered. “I hear that a person with talent is like an awl in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce through the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but I haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent,” said Prince Pingyuan.“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it. But not only the point—the whole awl,” Mao Sui said confidently.Impressed, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team, and Mao proved very helpful. Now the phrase “Mao Sui recommending himself” is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance (傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego (自我) can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.34．Where did Mao Sui come from?A．Qin.B．Chu.C．Zhao.D．We don’t know. 35．What does the underlined phrase “pierce through” mean?A．cut or make a way through B．be on both sides ofC．be made up of D．make a slight shake36．What is the phrase “Mao Sui recommending himself” used to describe now?A．Feeling powerful B．V olunteering for a taskC．Being honest enough D．Showing modesty37．What can we learn from the passage?A．Talented people have no chances.B．We should believe in ourselves.C．Modesty isn’t a valuable quality.D．A strong ego can do good to our career.You feel sick, so you go to the doctor. She checks your fever, looks at your throat, she gives you some medicine, but also a list of thinking skills that you are supposed to practice daily. She says that the way you think is causing some of your illness.Doctors and other scientists who study the human mind and try to explain why people behave in the way that they do, called psychologists, are starting to believe it. You know that your brain is connected to every part of your body through your nervous system (神经系统).Stress is caused whenever there is a problem or a change in your life. Of course, everybody has stress more or less; nobody’s life is perfect. In fact, we would never learn anything or grow or change without stress. We would probably be bored to death. But too much stress can hurt you. It can weaken your body’s protection so that you are more likely to catch diseases. It can even make you more likely to have an accident.When you feel stressed, your brain sends a message to your body to produce a chemical called adrenaline (肾上腺素). Adrenaline speeds up your breathing and your heartbeat. Today you have a different kind of stress. Problems like endless homework or troubles with your family are the kind of things you can’t fight or run away from, and that’s what can do something bad to you.What can you do about stress? First, you can try to find ways to change things so you aren’t under so much stress. You can set up a plan to finish homework or go to a doctor or a psychologist to try to work things out with your family or your friends. But sometimes you can’t change a stressful situation. Sometimes you don’t even want to. A big change might be a good change, but it will still be stressful.The link (关联) between your body and brain works in two ways. Your body can help yourmind deal with stress. If you are under stress, you need to take especially good care of your body. It’s important to get enough sleep and eat nutritious meals. Some people take a vitamin-mineral pill every day. Another thing that you can do is daily exercise. If you go walking or do aerobic dancing or work out at the gym, a person who isn’t used to much physical activity should start slowly. Anyone with a continuing physical problem should check with a doctor before starting any exercise programs.38．A psychologist is a person who may help you with your ________.A．illness and abilities B．thoughts and behaviourC．mind and nervous system D．physical activity and daily exercise 39．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．You shouldn’t go to the gym if you are under stress.B．One can do his homework to burn up adrenaline.C．Diseases and accidents are always caused by stress.D．Problems or changes in life may cause stress to people.40．What can we infer (推断) from the passage?A．A big change will cause another stressful situation.B．The way you think has nothing to do with your illness.C．If you take good care of your body, you will never feel stressed.D．It’s unnecessary to check with a doctor before starting exercise programs.41．What does the writer want to tell us in this passage?A．The causes of disease.B．The work a psychologist does.C．Good ways to keep healthy.D．The connection between the body and brain.As Bambi got older, his mother taught him new things, too. Once he was old enough, shebrought him to the meadow (草地) for the first time.“You must never rush out on the meadow,” she warned. “There might be danger!” She wanted Bambi to be safe, but he didn’t realize just how scary a place the meadow could be.As they explored the meadow, Bambi and his mother ran into a few other deer.

But just as they began to eat, Bambi’s mother sensed danger.The sounds of hunting filled the air. “Bambi! Quick! The thicket!” his mother called, warning him to run to safety. “Faster! Faster, Bambi! Don’t look back. Keep running!” Bambi heard another gunshot just as he reached his home.“We made it! We made it, Mother!” he said. Then he realized that she wasn’t there. “Mother, where are you?” He searched among the trees. He kept calling for her, ___▲ __.Bambi was crying when the Great Prince of the Forest found him.“Your mother can’t be with you anymore,” the Great Prince said softly.
