It is common to surf the Internet at home now. However, a recent survey showed over 90% of parents are not clear what websites their children visit. I strongly believe that a training project should be started to help parents to improve their Internet and computer skills. Then they can better monitor(监管) and guide their children.
Providing training would let parents pay more attention to their children’s online activities. This is one advantage. If parents had a better understanding of the Internet and websites, they would see the need to make sure that their children use it properly and responsibly.
Providing training to parents would allow parents to help their children with their schoolwork as well. These days, some homework of online courses needs to be done on computer. If parents have poor computer skills, they will be of little or no help with the homework. That can make parents very upset. Some people argue that it is good that students can work independently on computers. However, it is clear that students, especially young students often need this kind of home support.
Improving parents’ Internet and computer skills might also be a good way for parents to improve their relationships with their children. These days, children spend a lot of their free time on computers. If parents want to be part of their free time, they need to see that playing on computers can be a fun family activity. Joining their children can help parents bridge the gap(弥补隔阂) between them and their children.
Most people believe that children need to be helped and guided to use the Internet in a proper and responsible way. Therefore, training is extremely important.
—By Peter Ball

My father ,who was always drunk and angry ,beat me more and more every day. He always locked the door when he went away and kept the key in this pocket. One day I found an old saw (锯 子) that he hid in the roof. When I was alone in the house ,I started to make a hole on the floor under the big table. The next day my father said, Huck, go to the river and catch some fish for breakfast. Quickly! Remember,I’m watching you. While I was fishing by the river,I saw an empty boat nearby.
A boat! I thought happily,This is my chance to escape (逃) .I’ll hide the boat near some trees and use it tonight! When my father went to town that afternoon ,I got my saw and started to work on the hole. It was late afternoon when I finished making the hole.
I did a good job ,I thought ,looking at the hole. “Now I’ll get my father’s gun.”
I looked outside the window and there was nobody there. I quickly escaped through the hole. Then I ran into the woods to hunt (捕猎) a wild pig. Luckily ,I found one. I killed it and took it back to the house and let the pig’s blood fall on the floor. Then I pulled some of my hair and put it on my father’s axe (斧子) with some of the pig s blood. I took the pig’s body outside and put it in a big bag with some rocks and threw it into the river.
This way people will think I thought. They’ll come and look for my body in the river. This idea made me smile. I waited until it was dark and got into the boat and went to Jackson’s Island. I knew about Jackson’s island because Tom, Ben ,Joe and I had a lot of fun adventures there. (Adapted from The Adventures ofHuckleberry Finn by Mark Twain ) .

The Omicron variant( 奥 密 克 戎变 异株) was first found in South Africa on November 9, 2021.Luckily, it is less likely to cause serious disease. It can cause milder illnesses like a runny nose, a sore throat, cough and fever.
4
Do I really need to know if I had COVID(新冠) if it’s not causing serious illness
Yes. Testing is advised. UC Davis Health experts say it’s important to know for several reasons: You need to know whether to quarantine (隔离) so you can avoid infecting(感染) others. Antigen tests( 抗 原检测) are used to test for COVID ﹣ 19. If you test positive( 阳性), then you should quarantine. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) suggests that you get tested 5-7 days after “close contact with a person with suspected or confirmed COVID- 19.”
Why should I continue to wear a mask(口罩)
Omicron is highly infectious. Everyone should wear the mask. Several studies have indicated how useful masks can be in protecting yourself and others. “But remember it’s important to cover both the mouth and nose, as COVID- 19 can be found in the nose, mouth and throat,” reminded Garcia.
Should I Keep My Kid In School
School-aged kids, and their parents, have had a rough few years. Schools shut down suddenly in the autumn of 2022. Many parents are wondering if schools will continue to be safe—and if Omicron might mean more shutdowns(停课) in the future.
Thankfully, experts agree that if schools continue to take the precautions(预防措施) that many are taking—masking, distancing, and testing—schools should be able to remain a safe environment for our kids. These measures will not only keep your child safe from Omicron—and all variants—but also decrease the chances of outbreaks and shutdowns occurring in schools, Dr. Zhou explains.
What Can I Do to Protect My Family Against the Omicron Variant
Dr. Zhou emphasizes that it’s important for every member of your family to be vaccinated (接 种疫苗) , and boosted, if eligible. Masking is important, but you also want to ensure that your child is wearing a mask that fits well and that has a good seal. Parents might consider upgrading to KN95 or N95 masks, she says. Finally, it’s important to get yourself tested frequently, Dr. Zhou advises, and to certainly get tested ifyour child or anyone in your family is showing signs of COVID- 19.
All experts recommend that we continue to mask up, get vaccinated and boosted when eligible, and continue to get tested when we show signs of COVID- 19.
( ) 27.The Omicron variant can cause a lot of illnesses ,such as .
A. a runny nose, a nosebleed and coughs
B. a runny nose, a sore throat, coughs and fever
C. a runny nose, a sore throat and a nosebleed and headache
D. a runny nose, a sore throat, a stomachache and fever
( ) 28.What does the underlined word “infectious” in this passage mean
A. 危重的 B. 无症状的 C. 潜伏期长的 D. 具传染性的
( ) 29.Which of the following is not right according to the article
A. Everyone should wear the mask that fits well.
B. You need to know whether you had Omicron ifyou have a fever.
C. Everyone must always wear the mask and get vaccinated.
D. It’s necessary to cover both the mouth and nose with the mask. ( ) 30. From the passage ,we can infer(推理) that
A. ifyou test positive, then you should go to hospital right away.
B. you should get tested 5-7 times after close contact with an infected person.
C. you can wear two masks together ifyou do not have a N95 mask.
D. if schools take the precautions, they can remain a safe environment for our kids.

It’s very important that we all recycle ( 再 利 用 ). In nature, everything is used again. For example, when an animal dies, it becomes another animal’s food. Nothing is wasted.
But 44 (human) have created things like plastic bags which can’t be broken down by nature. Our rubbish kills animals and pollutes water and soil. If we continue making too much rubbish, the problem will only get 45 (bad). If nature can’t reuse the rubbish, we must recycle it.
Recycling is also the right thing to do for another reason. The earth is rich in natural materials like water and trees, 46 these materials are not endless(无尽的). We use up our natural materials much faster than the earth is able to reproduce them. For example, each year we cut down more than 6,000 square miles of forest. But it takes an average of 25 years for a new tree 47 (grow).
Recycling can help us save the earth, so let’s take action right now.

As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the 48 (good) students in your class. Once( 一旦) you find a dream, what do you do with it Do you ever try to make your dream come true Follow Your Heart written by Australian writer Andrew Matthews,
6
tells us that making our dreams come true 49 (be ) life’s biggest challenge.
“You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts prevent you from 50 (achieve) your dream, ”the book says. In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember the dream in your mind.
Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling 51 (you)what you want. Do this step
by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream 52 (make) up of many small dreams.
There will be many difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest one comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead 53 watching TV will lead to better exam results. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.
六、完形填空 (共 7 小题,计 7 分)
阅读下面短文,从方框中选择适当的词语填空。其中有两个词为多余选项。
reasons, listen to, suggests, understand, develop, managers, alone, learn from, explains
In 2015, some American sociologists (社会学家) reported that empathy (共情) , the ability to 54 other people and share others' feelings among college students had fallen down quickly over the past 10 years. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time, the sociologists said. Today, people spend more time 55 and are less likely to join groups and clubs.
Annie Moore is in charge of a teen program. She 56 differently. Turn on the TV, and we watch news and see reality shows full of people fighting, competing and treating one another with no respect. Humans learn by example—and some examples are not empathetic (有同 理心的) at all.
There are good 57 not to follow those bad examples. Humans are born with social relations. And empathy plays a key role in these relationships. The sociologists have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides, empathy can help us stay away from sadness and fear.
Empathy is also an ability for a good leader. In fact, Annie says, many top companies think that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new 58 . Good social skills, including empathy are a kind of “emotional (情感的) intelligence” and it will help you succeed in many areas of life. Academics ( 学 术 知 识 ) are important. But if you don’t have emotional intelligence, you won’t be as successful in work or life, she says.
What’s the best way to improve your EQ (情商) For starters, let down your guard and really
59 others. “One doesn't have empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,”Annie says.
To really 60 empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital, join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a “sharing circle” with your family, or spend time taking care of pets at an animal shelter.
七、阅读表达 (共 5 小题,计 10 分)
Anna Du was walking along the beach when she noticed plastics there. She reached down to pick them up, and quickly realized there were many more tiny pieces than she could deal with. It seemed impossible to clean them all up.
7
Du, 12 years old at the time, tried to solve the problem like any good scientist —— first, by doing a little research. That’s how she learned that 8 million tons of plastics end up in the oceans
every year.
Then she got to work building something that could help solve the problem: a remote-operated vehicle (遥控潜水器) , or ROV. Her ROV can move through water and find plastics on the ocean floor. The actually cool part of Du’s ROV is the detection(探测) system. She uses a camera along with three different kinds of light to find the plastics. She also uses visible (可见的) light to find unnatural colours that might make the plastics stand out.
“She has a very good engineering sense to break down a problem like this and then go after it,” says engineer Casey Machado. “It sounds simple, but it's a level of thinking that's really amazing.” Du started attending public events and workshops at a university when she was five years old, so she picked up the engineering skills necessary to build her ROV. She says actually getting her ROV to move through water well was not easy. She failed many times, but she never gave up trying and testing. When asked about future plans, she mentions wanting to address the effects of climate (气 候) change. “I think there are a lot of problems that could be solved with new inventions,” says Du.
Du thanks her parents, who for years have taken her to student outreach activities, for supporting her interest in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM). She says she has been able to meet students and scientists there. “l know l want to be an engineer because I like building things to help solve world problems,” says Du. “But I’m not sure what kind of engineer I want to be yet.”
