One day, we were told that we would have a school trip at the end of the month. The whole class got very excited and the girls began to discuss what to wear and what to bring with them. But Danny simply told everyone he wouldn’t go.

“Don’t you like it, Danny?” our teacher Mr. Smith asked with kindness.

Danny stood up and said, “It’s too much money for me. My dad is ill in bed. My mom works in a supermarket every day. I will not ask them for money.”

“I’m very proud of you that you can understand your parents. Not every student of your age can think about this,” Mr Smith replied.

Then Mr. Smith asked us to come up with some good ideas to raise money for the trip by ourselves. We all thought it was really meaningful, and it would be a different and valuable learning experience for everyone.

That day, we knew Danny more than before, because he was not only honest but also brave. He won the respect of all of us.

Around the 15th United Nations Chinese Language Day, which fell on April 20, some foreign students of Xi’an International Studies University practiced and enjoyed Chinese characters together with some Chinese experts and teachers. It has been a tradition for some foreign Chinese speakers and Chinese teachers to get together to mark the special day. 1

Chinese famous writer Lu Xun once said that the beauty of Chinese characters lies in three ways: their meanings educate the mind, their sounds please the ear, and their appearances please the eye. 2

The history of Chinese characters can date back over 3,000 years. To improve beauty and writing efficiency(效率), different kinds of characters were developed, such as zhuanshu, lishu, caoshu, and kaishu. 3

Many Chinese characters not only carry meanings but also have cultural significance(意义)passed down through history. 4 Through them, we can closely connect the past, present, and future of our country.

According to a recent survey, more than 30 million people worldwide are learning Chinese. 5 As more people can speak their mother languages and Chinese, the culture of Chinese characters is likely to be better understood and enjoyed worldwide.

Wangari Maathai, a Nobel Peace Prize winner, was born on April 1, 1940, in Kenya(肯尼亚). Growing up in the countryside, Wangari was deeply connected to the land from an early age. This early experience with the environment later inspired her life’s work, which has left an unforgettable mark on the world.

With the help of a program, Wangari received her university education in the United States. After graduation, she returned to Kenya. In 1971, she got a doctor’s degree from the University of Nairobi, becoming the first woman doctor in East and Central Africa. But her greater achievement was outside the university. In 1977, Wangari set up the Green Belt Movement, an organization focused on tree planting, environmental protection, and women’s rights. She called on Kenyan women to plant trees in their hometown. This simple act not only helped to protect the environment but also made women powerful economically(经济地)and socially.

Wangari focused not only on environmental problems. She made great efforts to fight for democracy(民主), human rights, and social fairness. Her activism(激进主义)often put her in disagreement with the Kenyan government. As a result, she was put in prison(监狱)several times, but she kept fighting bravely. It was because of her tireless work that she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004. She became the first African woman to receive the award.

Wangari passed away on September 25, 2011, but her spirit continues to inspire a worldwide movement towards environmental protection and social fairness. Her book, Unbowed, records her life journey and the challenges she faced, offering an inspiration to countless people worldwide. Her story lives on through the millions of trees planted by the Green Belt Movement and the countless lives she touched through her hard work.

阅读下列短文,从短文后每题所给的ABCD四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

A Long March 5 rocket took off from the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan province on May 3, 2024. After flying for about 37 minutes, it successfully placed the Chang’e 6 robotic lunar probe(月球探测器)into an Earth-moon transfer trajectory(转移轨道). Several days later the probe was programmed to land on the moon’s far side and started its tasks, which would last about 53 days.

This is the world’s first try to bring samples(样本)from the moon’s far side. For China, it’s the second sample-return moon journey. Chang’e 5 successfully brought samples from the moon in the winter of 2020. Up to now, 10 moon sample-return tasks have been carried out by the United States, the former Soviet Union(前苏联)and China, but all these samples were collected from the moon’s near side.

The moon’s far side has always been a subject of scientific wonder because of its many mysteries. It’s facing away from Earth and it can never be seen from Earth. It was once called the “dark side of the moon” even though it receives just as much sunlight as the near side.

Chinese researchers have found that the soil on the far side is much thicker than that on the near side, but they haven’t found out the reason. Samples brought back by Chang’e 5 have helped scientists find that there were volcanic(火山的)activities on the near side around 2 billion years ago. Some scientists thought maybe volcanoes became inactive on the far side about 4 billion years ago. Is it true? Samples from the far side will allow them to know the answer.

“Comparing the make-up of the far side samples from Chang’e 6 with those collected from the near side will be of great scientific value to the international community,” said Martin Sweeting, a famous professor of space engineering.

(1)When did Chang’e 6 begin to work on the moon?

A.

On May 3, 2024.

B.

After flying for about 37 minutes.

C.

In the winter of 2020.

D.

After landing on the moon’s far side.

2How many times has China got samples from the moon’s near side?

A.

Once.

B.

Twice.

C.

Five times.

D.

Ten times.


3According to the passage, the moon’s far side ________.

A.

receives less sunlight than the near side

B.

has thicker soil compared with the near side

C.

can be seen from Earth with powerful cameras

D.

has more recent volcanic activities than the near side


4What can we learn from Martin Sweeting’s words?

A.

Chang’e 6 will stay longer on the moon for more tasks.

B.

Chang’e 6 is carrying out a valuable task for the world.

C.

Chang’e 6 will bring samples from both sides of the moon.

D.

Chang’e 6 can compare samples before bringing them back.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的ABC三个选项中选出最佳答案。

April 24th is Space Day of China. Ever since Yang Liwei made it to space in 2003, about 20 Chinese astronauts have been sent into space.

In space, astronauts face many problems. There is little gravity(重力)there, which influences their bodies. Also, being away from family and friends and staying in a tiny spaceship for a long time can make them feel sad or stressed out. What’s more, if something goes wrong suddenly, they have to fix it under huge pressure. That’s why astronauts have to be smart, strong, and ready for any challenge before they can go to space.

To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their tasks and return to Earth safely, 8 kinds, including over 200 subjects of training, are set. Besides physical training, basic science knowledge and mock(模拟)tasks are included. Before astronauts can go to space, they train like this for at least three and a half years.

In China’s manned space project, one of the most difficult parts of the training is the underwater training. This helps astronauts get ready for the weightless environment in space. And they wear diving suits(潜水服)over 100 kilos and stay underwater for six hours every time.

A.

They have to train under huge pressure.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(ABCD)中,选出最佳选项。

①Plants have roots, leaves, and flowers. They have seeds(种子), too. New plants grow from seeds. Some seeds fall on the ground. New plants grow next to the old plants. When plants grow this way, they are too crowded to get enough sunshine and water. So some of them die. But some plants spread their seeds even far from where they live. These seeds grow in new places. There are many ways of the seeds’ travel.

②The wind helps seeds to travel. Some plant seeds have little wings. When the wind blows, the seeds fly away. Soon they fall to the ground and new plants may grow there. Some plants dry up. The wind pulls them from the ground, but they are so big that they can’t fly. They roll along the ground, dropping off their seeds.

③Other plants grow near the water. Their seeds drop into the water and go away with it. They may travel many miles before they stop.

④Some seeds have special parts called “stickers”. The stickers help the seeds travel far. How? These seeds wait for an animal to walk by. Then they stick into its fur to get a free ride. Sometimes it’s a long trip. Birds carry some plant seeds to new places, too.

Li Jin was born in Guangxi but raised in Sanya, Hainan. In the past 9 years, Li has made great efforts to protect the waters of Sanya. He is now spreading the knowledge of environmental protection. He does this through the Internet.

Around 2014, he began doing volunteer work to clear rubbish from the beaches and officially registered as a volunteer in May, 2017. Li took the lead in a clean-up activity on the Sanya River. In April, 2021, he used his own money to set up a volunteer service center. The center has 1,170 registered members who take part in all kinds of activities.

So far, he has spent about 3, 800 hours on volunteer activities in over 550 events. More than 2,300 people have joined in the activities with his encouragement. They have drawn the attention of both adults and children to the importance of protecting oceans and beaches. His center has organized 51 beach-cleaning activities which have seen about 1,800 people join in since it was set up.

In 2021, because of Li’s growing influence in environmental protection circles, the city government invited him to make a number of short videos. In the videos, he used simple words to explain how to protect the environment. Several of the videos have been watched millions of times.

I like to look up something in a paper dictionary better. Their explanations are so clear that I can understand them better. I don’t think some online dictionaries are believable. There are many incorrect usages which can make us confused.

Wang Lan, 15

If we are not good at memorizing English words, we can look up their meanings online very soon. It helps us finish reading the English articles more smoothly. If we are good language learners, we can always learn more in a shorter time with an online dictionary. It saves much time.

Meng Hao, 14

My paper dictionary is a great friend for me. Whenever I don’t know the meaning of a new word, I can learn it well by understanding the notes and the example sentences in the paper dictionary.

Tian Xiao, 13

I don’t like carrying a heavy dictionary wherever I go. It’s really convenient to learn a language with the help of an online dictionary. We don’t need to spend much time looking up new words. Using an online dictionary makes a more effective learner.
