The notice said, “LOOK OUT AT THIS STATION.”The old gentleman saw the notice. He looked out at the station as the train came in. He saw a little girl—it was Phyllis—running towards his carriage. He stood up and leaned out of the window of his carriage.“Please read this,” Phyllis said, and put a letter into his hand.The train left the station. The old gentleman sat down and read the letter. It was from Peter. The letter said:Dear Mr. We do not know your name.Mother is ill, and the doctor says we must give her some special things. But Mother can’t afford them. We do not know anyone here because Father is away, and we do not know where he lives. Father will pay you, or if he has lost all his money, I will pay you when I am a man. I promise you. Please get all the things on this list, and give them to the station master tomorrow.The letter was signed by Peter, Roberta, and Phyllis.The old gentleman read the letter and smiled. Then he put it in his pocket and started to read his newspaper again.That night there was a knock on the door of the cottage. The porter from the railway station was there.“An old gentleman gave this parcel (包裹) to the station master,” he said. “It’s for you.”The parcel was full of everything on the list of special things to make Mother well again.

When she asks where the things come from, tell her they are from a friend. When she is well, you can tell her the truth. She may say that you were wrong to ask a stranger for these things.I think you were right.The letter was signed “G.P.” and something that the children could not read.“I think we were right to ask the old gentleman for his help,” Peter said. “The important thing is for Mother to feel better.”1．When Mother was ill, Peter, Roberta, and Phyllis tried to get help by ________.（）A．meeting the station master B．looking for a greater doctorC．waiting for Father at the station D．writing a letter to the old gentleman2．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 6 refer to?（）A．The notice.B．The letter.C．The money.D．The newspaper. 3．Which is the right order of the following events?（）a.

However, in adolescence (青春期) changes to the body’s sleep cycle make it difficult for teens to fall asleep early. Many cannot fall asleep until 10:30 p.m. or even later and most of them will feel sleepy if they have to get up too early.Scientists recommend that both middle and high schools begin no earlier than 8:30 a.m. Later school start times support the natural needs of teenagers and increase their sleeping time.Here are some other benefits of later school start times:More time for a healthy breakfastWhen running late in the mornings, students are likely to go without breakfast. With an empty stomach, one finds it difficult to focus (集中) in class. When they are always in a hurry, students may form unhealthy eating habits.With extra time before going to school, students can eat a well-balanced breakfast andfocus more on learning.Fewer behavioral (行为的) problemsTeens experience mood changes as a common result of this special period of life. Less sleep may cause worries, stress and unhappiness.When they get enough sleep, students are calm and peaceful and their moods do not change suddenly. They’re less likely to feel worried, unhappy or get angry. For parents, children with more sleep are easier to live with.Better performance (表现) in studySleep loss hurts attention, memory and brain development. Students with less sleep have difficulty paying attention in class and are likely to have lower grades. Students with enough sleep can be more energetic during the day and more willing to learn. They are also less likely to fall asleep in class and more able to understand what they learn.In conclusion, starting school later helps students get a better night’s sleep. It improves their chances of eating, behaving and performing better.1．According to the passage, what may cause teenagers to stay up?（）A．Their low grades.B．Their empty stomachs.C．Their body’s sleep cycle.D．Their heavy homework.2．How can sleep loss influence students’ study?（）A．It gives them much energy.B．It does harm to the brain.C．It saves more time for study.D．It improves their memory.3．What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?（）A．To explain reasons for students’ stress.B．To describe bad habits caused by sleep loss.C．To discuss scientists’ research on healthy food.D．To introduce benefits of later school start times.4．In which part of the website can you probably find this passage?（）A．Education.B．Fashion.C．Sports.D．Technology.（C）（2023·江苏苏州·统考中考真题）Confucianism (儒家思想) has been followed by Chinese people for more than two thousand years.To help people understand how to behave towards others, Confucianism teaches the Five Constants (五常). These are ren, yi, li, zhi and xin. They are general virtues (美德) around the world. The most important two are ren and li.Ren is the feeling of care and love we should have for others. Confucius explained ren could best be understood as loving others. He is famous for teaching people “What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others”. It is quite similar to what is known in the West as the Golden Rule (treat others as you wish to be treated).While the meaning of ren is easy to understand, li is a little harder to express. It can be thought of as duty or even respect. Generally, li is the way we should connect with people in our everyday life. In Confucian writings, discussions about li include the proper way to drink tea and how to remember ancestors (祖先). While ren is mostly about our opinions and feelings, li is about how we express our opinions and feelings towards others and towards the world around us.Perhaps the most well-known Confucian virtue is xiao. This is the duty children have to their parents. Xiao means loving, respecting, obeying and taking care of one’s parents in their old age. In Confucianism, xiao is important for a harmonious (和谐的) society: Without it, the whole world would fall into a mess.1．Which are the most important of the Five Constants?（）A．Ren and yi.B．Ren and li.C．Li and xin.D．Yi and zhi.2．What is the best Chinese for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?（）A．博学于文，约之以礼。

We were driving to our grandma’s and our car 1 . We couldn’t get out of the car and I cried. A mechanic came to help us.’Alice, 12‘I remember I was eating an ice cream when a dog came and took it out of my hand. I cried, I was two , I think.’Tom,10‘I remember my first memory is my second birthday. There was a cake with two candles. I couldn’t blow the candles out, so my dad did it for me.’Mike, 15Most adults remember little about this that happened in their very early childhood, 2 , some people think that we aren’t really able to form memories before our fourth or fifth birthdays. But scientists carrying out research into early memories have suggested that this is not true. They say that we do form memories at a very young age. However , what we remember about our very early lives seems to change as we 3 .Researchers in Canada worked with 140 children aged between four and thirteen. First , they asked their participants to describe their earliest memories. Then they asked them roughly how old they’d been when the event happ ened . Next, they asked the kids’ parents to make sure that the event actually happened .And all the 4 were written down. The researchers waited for two years before they went back to the children and asked them again,‘What’s your earliest memory?’Nearly all the children who were aged between four and seven in the first interview said something very different in the second interview. And when the researchers reminded them of what they’d said the first time, many of the children said, ‘No, that never happened to me. ’However , many of the children who were between ten and thirteen at the first interview described exactly the 5 memory in the second interview. This seems to suggest that our memories change in the early years, but that at around the age of ten, the things that we remember get fixed（固定的）.The researchers are now looking into the question of why children remember certain events and not others. We sometimes think that most first or early memories are about very stressful things that happened to us as children , because had thins stand out in our minds. But in this study, stressful events were only a small percentage of what the children said they remembered. More often, their early memories were happy ones. The researchers are trying to work out why this is the case. We expect the researchers will 6 more fascinating things about memories in the near future.1．A．ran forward B．sold out C．broke down D．sped up2．A．As a result B．What’s more C．For the time being D．In fact3．A．are pleased B．build confidence C．feel tired D．get older4．A．forecasts B．answers C．reviews D．orders5．A．unforgettable B．sweet C．same D．short6．A．imagine B．require C．control D．discoverⅢ. 语法填空12、The first thing people notice about other people is the way they look.

Later he became a star in the NBA, and a citizen of the United States. But he never forgot the land of his birth, or the duty to share his fortune with others. He built a new hospital in his old hometown in Congo(刚果). People called him ＂a good-hearted man＂.● Success and kindnessAfter her daughter was born, Julie Aigner-Clark searched for ways to share her love of music and art with her child. So she borrowed some equipment, and began filming children’s videos in he r own house. The Baby Einstein Company was born, and in just five years her business grew to more than $20 million in sales. And now she is using her success to help others — producing child safety videos with John Walsh of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Julie says of her new program, ＂I believe it’s the most important thing that I have ever done.＂● Bravery and courageWesley Autrey became a national hero when he placed his life in danger to help a stranger who had fallen onto the tracks in a New York subway tunnel.Autrey was waiting for a downtown local train in Manhattan one day with his two daughters. Suddenly, a young man, Cameron Hollopeter, fell onto the subway tracks. Just then a train was coming. He dove onto the tracks and tried to take Hollopeter off the tracks, but there was not enough time to drag Hollopeter away. Instead, Autrey threw himself down onto the man, in the space between the rails(铁轨). It was too late for the train to stop. Several cars passed over them, and left a grease(润滑油) mark on his hat.After that Autrey said, ＂I just saw someone who needed help and did what I felt was right.＂1．What was Mutombo praised(赞扬) for?A．Being a star in the NBA．B．Being a citizen of America.C．His work in the USA．D．Helping people in the home town.2．Who was Julie in the passage?A．A famous basketball player. B．A mother with two daughters.C．A person who saved a young man. D．A woman who owned the Baby Einstein Company.3．What did the Baby Einstein Company do at its beginning?A．It produced safety equipment for children. B．It made videos to help protect children.C．It sold videos of children’s music and artwork.D．It looked for missing and exploited children.4．Why was Wesley Autrey called a national hero?A．He helped a man get across the rails. B．He stopped a man from running away.C．He protected two little girls from getting hurt. D．He saved a stranger without thinking about his own safety. 5．What does the underlined sentence ＂Several cars passed over them, and left a grease mark on his hat.＂imply (暗示)?A．The cars of the train made Autrey’s hat dirty.B．The cars of the train were close enough to Autrey’s head.C．The cars of the train passed over Autrey very quickly.D．The cars of the train were covered with lots of grease.B14、Y ou cannot go without a pencil when writing or drawing something. You have probably noticed letters H and B printed on your pencil. What, for example, do HB, 3H and 3B mean?Those are letters showing the hardness or the lead(铅) or graphite(石墨) in a pencil. H refers to hard lead, The bigger the Arabic number before the letter H, the harder the lead, and the lighter will be the colour. The hardest pencil has 6H on it. Such pencils are often used in making engineering drawing. People seldom write with them. B stands for soft lead. The bigger the number before the letter B, the softer the lead, and the darker will be the colour, the softest being the 6B pencil. Such pencils are used by artists.The HB pencil has a lead core(芯) that is neither too soft nor too hard. Its colour is medium(中等的) in its blackness. It is most suitable for ordinary writing and drawing.1．6H pencils are often used by ________A．students B．engineers C．artists D．writers2．A 4B pencil is ___________than a 3B-one.A．harder B．betterC．more expensive D．softer3．The best title for the passage would be "________ "A．PencilsB．Hard pencils and soft pencilsC．Letters H and BD．Symbols(符号) on your pencilC15、Blind imitation (模仿) is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive: to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else's way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child's bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server. Then you can say, "I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors" tragedies and stories, and know that they are cheering on.1．Imitation proves useful when you _____.A．know you are uniqueB．lose the balance of lifeC．begin to learn something newD．get tired of routine practice2．To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should _____.A．forget daily fear and painB．choose the right exampleC．ask others for decisionsD．stay away from stars3．The trouble a creator faces is _____.A．the lack of strong motivationB．the absence of practical ideasC．how to search for more materialsD．how to use imagination creatively4．What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?A．To highlight the importance of creatively.B．To criticize the characters of role models.C．To compare imitation with creation.D．To explain the meaning of success.D16、Tigers are terrible animals, but a cat is a cute animal. As a mother, the Chinese-American writer Amy Chua is just a tiger . Her book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother (《虎妈战歌》), tells us how she gives her two children education. She says that being strict is the only way to train a child’s talent. Her kids had to obey the following rules. To begin with, he r kids weren’t allowed to watch TV or play computer games. Then, they were not allowed to “ hang out ” with other kids after school. They had to be the top students in their class. And they had to practice the piano and the violin for hours every day. Of course, she believes this has brought a lot of proble ms for herself and her kids. But she doesn’t mind because her kids have become great. Chua says, like her, most Asian mothers are tigers because they believe their children can achieve a lot if they’re pushed hard enough. She says American mothers are real ly cats. They care more about their children’s self-respect (自尊). They don’t want to be strict with their kids because this may hurt their feelings. With soft words and understanding, they encourage their children to choose for themselves. So is a tiger mom better than a cat mom? It may also depend on the child.1．The writer of this passage wants to _________.A．tell that Tigers are terrible animals, but a cat is a cute animal.B．tell us Amy Chua how to give children education.C．tell the book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is about animals.D．tell that most Asian mothers are cats2．What does Amy Chua think of training a child’s talent?A．She says that being strict is the only way to train a child’s talentB．She says that being soft is the best way to train a child’s talentC．She says that teaching is the only way to train a child’s talentD．She says that making the rules is the only way to train a child’s talent3．To begin with, her kids weren’t allowed toA．watch TV.B．play computer gamesC．“ hang out ” wi th other kids after school.D．Above of all4．She doesn’t mind because her kids have become great. does she?A．Y es, she does B．No, she doesn’tC．Y es, she doesn’t D．No, she does.5．From the passage, we can know which one is Not trueA．most Asian mothers are tigers because they believe their children can achieve a lot.B．American mothers don’t want to be strict with their kids because this may hurt their feelingsC．So is a tiger mom better than a cat mom? It may also depend on the child.D．American mothe rs are like cats. They care less about their children’s self-respect (自尊).E17、Stanley, as a son of a very poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his hometown. “There’s so much to learn,” he’d say. “Though we’re born stupid, only the stupid remain that way.” He decided that none of his children would be refused an education.Therefore, Stanley insisted that we should learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, we’d still do that. And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we learned. We would talk about the news of the day. Sometimes the news was unimportant, but it was always taken seriously. Stanley would listen carefully and discuss it with us.Then came the moment—the time to share the day’s new learning.“Felice,” he’d say, “tell me what you learned today.”“I learned that the population of Denmark is ....”Silence.Stanley was thinking about what was said. “The population of Denmark. Hmm. Well…” he’d say. “Get the map; let’s see where Denmark is.” And the whole family went on a search for Denmark.This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and joining in one another’s education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting what we learned, confirming our value, Stanley was surely our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting(传授) what Stanley knew all along—the value of continual learning. His skills have served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the population of Denmark might prove useful.1．（小题1）What do we know from Paragraph 1?A．Those born stupid could not change their life.B．The poor could hardly afford school education.C．The town elders wanted to learn about the world.D．The writer’s father was born in a worker’s family.2．（小题2）The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refers to(指代)______.A．one new thing B．sharing what we learnC．crazy idea D．learning one new thing3．（小题3）From the passage, we know that the writer _______.A．knew very well about DenmarkB．felt regret about those wasted daysC．thought his father’s educational skills usefulD．only talked about important news with his family4．（小题4）What is the greatest value of “dinner time” to the writer?A．Continual learning. B．Showing talents.C．Family get-together. D．Eating delicious food.5．（小题5）What is the best title of this passage?A．A poor familyB．My best teacherC．Happy time at schoolD．The most difficult knowledgeF18、William Blake described the eyes as the “windows of the soul.” Our eyes are the windows through which we see the world around us. Either way, there’s no question that we place great value on our eyes and our eyesight. Surveys have shown that of the five senses, sight is the one that people fear losing the most.Thinking about the important function of our eyes, we’d give them the best care possible, but sometimes we get too busy or forget to do a few simple things that can keep our eyes healthy.Protecting your eyes starts with the food on your plate. Remember when you were a kid and your mom told you that carrots would improve your eyesight. Well, she might be right. Proper food will keep your eyes strong and healthy.Give up your daily habits that could seriously injure your eyes. Always wear sunglasses in a sunny day to protect your eyes from ultraviolet ray（紫外线）. Rest your eyes every 20 minutes from the computer screen by looking 20 feet away for 20 seconds. At least every 2 hours, get up and take a 15-minute break when working at a computer.Make sure your ey es do not get injured in the first place. Y ou should try to prevent eye injuries whether you’re playing sports or doing housework. You should also know when to wear safety glasses and what kinds will work best for you.Last but not least, get your eyes e xamined regularly. Eye exams can help find some eye diseases. It’s important to find these diseases early on, when they’re easier to treat.1．According to a survey, people fear losing ▲ most.A．their sights B．their hearings C．their smells D．their tastes2．The underlined word function might mean “▲ ” in Chinese.A．差异B．功能C．优势D．问题3．▲ is NOT a good way to protect your eyes.A．Eating carrots B．Wearing sunglassesC．Working at computers D．Using safety glasses4．Finding eye diseases early on through eye exams ▲ .A．saves much work for the doctors B．is helpful for the treatmentC．provides you the best care of your eyes D．wastes much of your money5．What is the best title of the passage?A．Give Your Eyes Some RestB．Good Habits Bring HealthC．Protect the Windows of the SoulD．Simple Way of Eye Exams wastes much of your moneyⅤ.书面表达19、今年我省出台了系列推进素质教育的新政，其中对学生的作息时间做了严格规定。

Holly's father wanted to cut it down and build a new office there. Holly felt sad and didn't agree. She moved into the old tree house，which was her favourite place in the world. One day, it rained all night. Lightning lit up the sky and thunder rumbled. The tree house was moving. A branch(树枝) broke. Holly and her dog Eco fell down from the tree. Her parents ran towards her and took her into the room. Luckily，Holly was all right.The next day a tree surgeon(外科医生) named Harry examined the oak tree. He did some tests, then he talked to Holly and her father.“This is a lovely tree ,"he said. “I can see why it's so important to you，Holly. Unfortunately ,it's very old，and it has a disease. It really isn't safe. I'm afraid it has to come down.”"Holly nodded. Her father put his arm around her.“Can you cut it down?” he asked.“Yes，of course , "said Harry.“And after that ... can you plant a new tree?”“A new tree?” asked Holly，surprised." Where?”“In the same place ，of course," her father replied.So Harry cut down the old oak tree and planted a new one in its place. Holly helped him fill the hole with earth，and Eco jumped in and out of it while they were working. Later the whole family stood around the new tree.“It's small，isn't it?” said Holly's sister Sophie.“It's small now ,”said Holly,“but it's going to grow. It's going to grow as big as my old tree." Then she turned to her father.“Dad, where are you going to build your new office?”“Over there ,”said her father，pointing.“On the lawn?” asked Holly. Her parents were crazy about their stupid lawn!“It's OK," her mother said. "The tree's more important. In fact, I want you to have a party in the garden for your new tree. And I want you to invite all your friends."Holly and Sophie smiled. It was going to be a great summer after all.34. What does the underlined word "examined” probably mean in paragraph 2?A. Changed.B. Climbed.C. Checked.D. Collected.35. What can we know about the old oak tree?A. It was cut down by Holly.B. It had a disease and wasn't safe.C. It came down by itself suddenly.D. It would grow with a young tree.36. How did Holly feel about the new tree later?A. Strange.B. Angry.C. Worried.D. Hopeful.37.From the passage，we can know that Holly 's father wouldA. give up building the new officeB. share one office with his friendsC. build the new office on the lawnD. choose to work in the tree houseCDid you know that vocabulary（词汇) is more important than grammar? If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully, even if the grammar is not completely perfect.However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can't remember it at that moment. Does this often happen to you? The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don't have a very good memory.The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully, is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word, for example，from an English lesson or an article，write it down in your vocabulary notebook .Writing is more active than just reading a definition(释义).You should write theword, the definition in English or translation，one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.lmagine you just learn the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous (adjective), definition—giving or willing to give freely. Example one，from the article: Thanks for paying for my dinner, you' re very generous. Example two，my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends. It's best if your example sentences are true to your life, because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day，read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It ' s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps—writing the word and using it at once—-help you remember and use new words.Do you have a vocabulary notebook? If not，start now.38.

Ways of Learning New WordsDThe Horsetail Fall（瀑布) is one of Yosemite National Park ' s most amazing views. Around the second week of February，the setting sun hits the Horsetail Fall at just the right angle (角度) to light the upper parts of the waterfall. And when conditions are right，the Horsetail Fall becomes orange and red at sunset. It is like red-hot lava(熔岩) pouring down from the top of the El Capitan. So, it got the name “firefall”.The firefall is a perfect match of the weather，the fall，the time and the watching place. It usually appears on dry, warm and cloudless days. There must be enough flowing water to make a firefall too. So there must be enough snow on the mountain top，and it turns into water on warm afternoons.The sun goes to the best place before the fall in late February. And the best time to watch the fall is 5 to 15 minutes before the sunset. Only at this time can visitors see the firefall. The El Capitan Picnic Area is the best place to watch, because it is close to the fall and is perfect to set up cameras and tents.Every year in February，thousands of photographers come to watch the firefall. Although the view may appear just minutes before sunset，many of them have to come hours earlier to get a right place to set their cameras in time.
