  • 7、We all know that exercise is good for us, don't we? Just thinking about having to run or swim a long way can be enough to make some people want to lie down and give up! However, did you know that exercise is not all about doing sport?

    Moving our bodies causes our brains to give out some special chemicals that create a good feeling. Just ten minutes of working out can leave us feeling happier. Moreover, regular exercise helps us feel fresher and get to sleep more easily. Finally, if we connect our exercise with a healthy diet, we will look healthier and feel more confident about ourselves. Sounds like a good deal, doesn't it?

    If exercise hasn't been part of your life for a long time, there is no point training for a marathon(马拉松): you will soon give up and go back to your old ways! Walking and riding bikes around the local park for ten minutes every day are great ways to develop a fitness habit.

    Choose an activity that not only exercises your body, but that you also enjoy. Some people simply go jogging while listening to their favourite music. Others take up activities such as dancing or playing basketball with their friends. Make the experience more enjoyable as you work out.

    It doesn't matter how much we exercise. Doing regular exercise isn't just about appearance. Who wouldn't want that?

    A. Start small!

    B. That way, you'll never give it up!

    C. It's about being healthier and feeling happier.

    D. For a start, exercise is not just about the body.

    E. But we also know that not everybody loves doing it.

    Marisa: Posted on October 19, 2023

    Is it ever OK to lie to a child? My 10-year-old son plays soccer. He's not very good at it, but he loves it. Yesterday he played very badly but happily. When he finished the game, he asked, "Did I play well?" I said, "Yes! You' re a great soccer player!" Did I do the right thing?

    Yes, you did the right thing. Sometimes you have to tell lies that are not harmful. It's necessary to tell white lies in life. Your purpose was to make him feel good. Now he's ready to play soccer again.

    Bernie: October 20, 2023

    I don't think there is ever a good reason to lie to our children. Parents are children's examples. We should be honest in order to teach honesty to our children. If you keep hiding truth from them, they will not trust you or respect you. Honesty is the first step to build a good relationship between parents and children.

    Missy: October 20, 2023

    You lied to make your son feel better, but you missed a good chance to teach him a life lesson. People should work hard for what they want. Maybe next time you can say, "No! You didn't play well today. Great soccer players practice a lot. Let's go and practice." The truth will make him strong and a good soccer player.

    Parviz: October 21, 2023

    Parents should be honest to their children, but they don't have to tell the whole truth. Next time when your son asks, "Did I play well?" you can say, "What do you think?" Then your son can tell you what he thinks. That way, everything you say is true, and you avoid the truth that hurts him.

    (1)、What's Marisa's trouble?
    A、Her son didn't play soccer well. B、She doubted if it was right to lie to her son. C、Her son loved playing soccer very much. D、She didn't want to tell the truth to her son.
    (2)、How many people think Marisa did wrong in this passage?
    A、Two people. B、Three people. C、Four people. D、Five people.
    (3)、Which of the following may Parviz probably agree?
    A、To be honest is the first step to a good parent-child relationship. B、Telling a lie may make parents miss a good chance to teach their children. C、It's a good way for parents to be honest to their children, but try not to hurt them. D、Parents should be honest in order to teach honesty to their children.
  • 9、Smartphones are getting boring. The new models are either a bit faster or have better cameras, but they are basically no different from the ones already in our pockets. This is why scientists are hoping, and working for something new, something that will change our lives just as greatly as smartphones do. At the moment, the next invention might be smart glasses.

       

    Just imagine. Instead of having to pick up your phone and look at the screen, all of the information you need simply appears just in front of you, in your glasses. Satellite navigation (导航) directions would appear right there on the road. And your smart glasses could guide you to the right shelf in the supermarket!

    Smart glasses could also be used in industry. They could show engineers the instructions they need to fix things more quickly. A doctor could carry out a difficult operation, guided in real time by someone on the other side of the world.

    This may sound impossible. But most of the technologies to invent them are already there. For example, one key technology is called AR, which can make digital 3D objects appear as if they are part of the real world. We've used it a lot on our video calls. Similarly, huge progress has been made in spatial audio. This is when a sound is made to give it a sense of place, like what you hear in an empty room. Some high-end earphones can already do that. Future glasses will of course need to recognize (识别) your voice to do tasks. This technology has been widely used in our daily life.

    So, why aren't we all wearing smart glasses yet? So far, no one has invented a good way to send images (映像) of our world onto glasses. However, with the rapid development of technology, smart glasses could arrive much sooner than we think.

    (1)、Why does the writer mention smartphones in Paragraph 1?
    A、To start a story. B、To explain an idea. C、To introduce a topic. D、To discuss a problem.
    (2)、What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about?
    A、When smart glasses might be made. B、Where smart glasses could be used. C、How smart glasses would give directions. D、Why smart glasses should be changed.
    (3)、Which of the following technologies needs to be improved to invent smart glasses?
    A、Making spatial audio. B、Recognizing voices. C、Creating digital 3D objects. D、Sending images onto glasses.
    (4)、How might the writer feel about the future of smart glasses?
    A、Bored. B、Confident. C、Satisfied. D、Uncertain.
  • 10、For 16-year-old Ma Yifei, the violin performance of the Beijing 2022 Olympics theme song, Snowflake, was her best present for Paralympians (残奥运动员) all over the world. Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. "I'm also disabled and I want to do something for them with my music," said Ma.

    Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young. She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the "colorful" music through sound and emotion.

    Ma's mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score (乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.

    Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher's hands, arms and back to learn the movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.

    "After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises," said Ha, who advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, "As I've been practising so long, it's hard to give up. I believe I will play better if I persist in practising."

    In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the Central Conservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream, though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.

    Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. "All my hard work has paid off. I'm proud of standing on the stage today."

    (1)、What does the underlined phrase "persist in" probably mean in Paragraph 5?
    A、Keep on. B、End up. C、Give up. D、Look forward to.
    (2)、In what order did the following happen in Ma's story?

    a. Ma started to learn to play the piano.

    b. Ma went blind because of an illness.

    d. Ma's mother advised her to give up the violin.

  • 11、Once a very rich man and his son collected valuable paintings by famous artists like Picasso, Van Gogh and Monet.

    Later, the son left to join the army. After a few weeks, the old man received a letter saying his son had died while taking another soldier to a hospital. The old man became very lonely and sad.

    "Who will open the price at $100?" the auctioneer asked. Moments passed and no one spoke or raised their hands. Someone said, "Who cares about that painting? Let's get on to the good ones." More voices followed in agreement. "No, we must sell this one first," replied the auctioneer. "Now, who will take the portrait of the son?"

    Finally, a good friend of the old man spoke, "Ten dollars!" "Will anyone go higher?" called the auctioneer. After more silence, he said: "Going once…going twice…Sold!" The auctioneer then announced that the whole auction was over. "According to the father's will, whoever takes the son's portrait gets the whole collection." The auctioneer said.

    Modesty (谦逊) is a valuable quality in many cultures around the world. In China, there is no1. However, the phrase "毛遂自荐" seems to disagree with this.

    During the Warring States Period, the Qin army beat Handan.2 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 were3 enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered.

    Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt, "How long have you been here with me?" "Fo three years," Mao Sui answered. "I hear that a person with talent is like an awl (锥子) in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon make a hole in the4. You've been here for a long time, but haven't seen any of your5. 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 make a hole in it, but not only the point - the whole awl," Mao Sui said in a6 way. He wasn't afraid of Prince Pingyuan.

    Impressed by him, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team, and Mao7 showed that he was very helpful. Now the phrase "Mao Sui recommending himself" is used to8 someone who volunteers to do a task.

Since I was a teenager, I2 that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let3 people know your feelings. If you are not able to communicate, things4 bad. When you are mad at your parents, it is no use not talking to them. If you look5 the word "communication" in dictionary, it will say "the exchange of ideas and information".6 a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it's just by7 a note. You have to make your parents8 good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you'll listen to what they say, but ask them9 to listen to you.10 away only makes the situation worse.

    This is11 example. One night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she felt12 would be rude of her to go home first. As a result, she was late getting home. Her parents were angry at first, but when Sophie explained13 she was late, they weren't so mad. Communication is the key factor there.

  • 16、阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。

    It is easier to agree than to disagree. The following tips can help people solve disputes.

    Don't make it personal.

    If you get upset, it can help to remember that you' re mad at the person's idea, not the person.

    Never criticize (批评) the others' ideas.

    You' d better not say "That's a stupid idea", try "I don't really agree, and here is why." Never shout loudly and you will have a much better chance of getting your idea across.

    Use "I" statements (陈述) to communicate how you feel and what you think.

    Using "you" statements can sound argumentative (争论的). For example, telling your mum "You always remind me about my chores when I have a lot of homework" has a very different tone (语气) from "I'm under pressure because I have a lot of homework tonight. Can I do those chores tomorrow?".

    Listen to the other point of view.

    When the other person is talking, try to stop thinking about why you disagree or what you will say next. Instead, focus on what is being said. When it is your turn to talk, repeat any key points the other person made to show you have paid attention to what was said. Then express why you disagree.

    Stay calm.

    This is the most important thing you can do to make a conversation go on well.

    Have you ever imagined what bees can do with their tiny brains? Now scientists are looking into a bee's brain.

    Clint Perry, a scientist, has spent much time studying how bees think. He says studying bees is not very different from studying other animals. "The main difficulty is to design (设计) an experiment for bees and get what we want," he says. "With humans, we can ask them a question and get an answer. But we can't use the same way to get an answer from bees. They are just trying to get sugar. Bees like sugar."

    The fact that bees like sugar is helpful for scientists to design experiments. For example, in one experiment, Perry gave bees a task: to find delicious sugar on a landing place above a black bar (棒). Perry made the task easier or harder by moving the landing place farther from or closer to the black bar. He found that bees would avoid the task when it was difficult. And when the task was easy, bees would try it.

    As for humans, we might choose not to take a test when we aren't ready for it. And we might choose to take the test when we are well prepared. In the same way, bees seemed to make decisions like humans.

    Perry points out that we are not sure whether bees actually make a thoughtful choice from experiments. Now scientists still do not know how bees manage to do so much with their tiny brains. But learning more about how bees' brains work could help us learn more about how our own brains deal with information.

    (1)、What does the underlined word "They" in Paragraph 2 refer to (指的是)?
    A、Humans. B、Ways. C、Answers. D、Bees.
    (2)、What helps scientists to design experiments according to the text?
    A、Bees like sugar. B、Bees are animals. C、Bees are tiny. D、Bees can fly.
    (3)、What would bees do when the task was hard?
    A、Try it. B、Avoid it. C、Design it. D、Prepare it.
    (4)、Which of the following will the writer probably agree with?
    A、We are certain now that bees can make a thoughtful choice. B、Scientists have known how bees do with their tiny brains. C、Looking into bees' brains helps learn how humans' brains work. D、Studying bees is quite different from studying other animals.
    (5)、What could be the best title (标题) of the text?
    A、A Study on How Bees Think B、A Survey on Why Bees Like Sugar C、A Report about How Brains Work D、A Way about How We Design Tasks

In winter, when the ice was thick enough, they often went across the pond. But their mother did not like them to do this. She said, "If there's no one with you, you mustn't walk across the pond."

    "Don't go across the pond today, children," she said, as she kissed them goodbye one morning. "It is beginning to thaw (融化)."

    "I didn't say anything, so I can do what I like," said Annie.

    So they got on the ice and started to go across the pond.

    They had not gone far before the ice got broken, and suddenly they fell into the water. Luckily, a man who was at work near the pond heard the children's cries. He rushed into the water and saved them successfully.
