Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the weather report for our town. It has been raining for about fifteen days. And there will be a heavy rain tonight. So if you go out, be sure to take a raincoat, not an umbrella. Because when it rains, there will be strong wind.
All the rainwater has caused the water in the rivers to rise. We must pay attention: we may have a flood tomorrow morning. The west of our town is lower. It will be in danger. People living there should move to a high place with all their valuable things, such as the third floor or fourth floor of a building. We must care about everyone’s safety.

My name is John. Today I want to say something mainly about my daily life. First I want to say my life has changed a lot. When I was a child, I had a lot of time to play. But now I have to study all day. I used to play baseball and basketball with my classmates, but now I just stay at home and do my homework. I seldom watch TV these days, for I’m often busy preparing for my test. Books are my good friends. I used to read a lot of cartoon books instead of reading textbooks all day like now. I enjoy doing homework with my friends. But my parents don’t allow me to do that, because they think we will talk instead of studying. I disagree. We can learn a lot from each other. My parents are doctors. They expect me to be a doctor too when I grow up, but I want to be a teacher. Maybe I’ll be a doctor anyway, but I don’t think I could be a happy doctor.

【答案】范文：
During the Health Week, we will have a School Trip Day on Friday. Here is the plan for the day. We will start our trip by walking to Lakeside Park. In the morning, there is going to be a kite-flying competition. At noon, we will have a picnic near a small lake there. After lunch, we will go boating on the lake. We can feel a sense of peace in mind while we are rowing on the blue water.
By being part of these activities, we will not only develop friendship with our classmates, but also relax ourselves and be free from pressure of study. ( 98 words )

After that, there will be a kung fu lesson, which can help us learn to keep fit.
All these sports will do us good. Not only can they make us feel relaxed but also develop friendship. (100 words )(

（A）
Is it a celebrity's （名人）job to be a good role model Please read the following students' debate.
Pros（正方） Cons(反方)
It's a celebrity's job to be a good role model because people usually look up to stars. If a celebrity drinks and smokes, his fans will follow him because they look up to the celebrity so much. If a celebrity's lifestyle is improper for kids, then their parents should be more careful about what they let their kids see. A celebrity doesn't have to try to be a good role model. They are famous because they worked hard at what they love for a living. They should try to make good choices for themselves, not their fans. Lots of stars have to post apology（道歉）letters after being caught doing bad things. It's good, but if the only reason is to win back their fans, it's not good.
I think everyone should try to be a good role model, even if you are not a celebrity! You can still be a role model to your sisters and brothers, a younger neighbor, or anyone. But I think celebrities should be very good, because they are role models for so many people! Although it is a wonderful thing to be a good role model, that's not what the celebrities must do. They are famous because they love what they do and are good at it. Being a role model is never in the job. If the celebrity knows they are affecting the young people, they should try hard to set a good example.
46.Which of the following reasons is NOT from the pros
A. People look up to the celebrities. B. Everyone should try to be a good role model.
C. Celebrities get much love and support from fans. D. Celebrities are models for many people.
47.According to the cons, how do some people become famous
A. By working hard at what they love. B. By setting a good example to others.
C. By affecting the young people. D. By making good choices for themselves
48.What can we learn from their words
A. It is easy for stars to win back fans. B. Stars may sometimes do something wrong.
C. Family members should encourage kids to be stars.
D. Even though a celebrity makes mistakes, young people should follow him.

Jiangsu province is a land of abundance. As the traditional tea processing techniques in China were added to UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity (联合国教科文组织人类非物质文化遗产代表名录)in November 29, 2022, tea culture in Jiangsu province attracts attention again.
Fuchun pastry
Fuchun teahouse lies in an alley in Yangzhou. Although it is not located in the very heart of the city, it attracts a large army of customers to come every year.
Built in 1885, Fuchun teahouse was a flower shop and became a place for people to drink tea then. It started to offer different kinds of pastries until the owner introduced them, which not only perfectly matched the traditional Chinesetea, but also represented a kind of artistry from the kitchen. Fuchun pastry craft was listed in the national intangible cultural heritage in 2008.

____③____. Every spring, farmers pick up the tender shots, and after a series of processing steps, yuhua tea comes into the market. This pine needle-like tea leaves has a special aroma and flavor. ____④____ The yuhua tea making craft was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2021.

Have you ever paid for educational podcasts (播客)or live videos Ask some people and most of them will say yes. "Pay-for-knowledge" has been more and more fashionable these years. The contents of these "pay-for-knowledge" products are from language learning to gardening or baby-caring. Everything you think of can be found online at this moment. "Pay-for-knowledge" is on the rise(兴起).
Why is "pay-for-knowledge" industry developing so rapidly First, its development is based on the Internet. With a fast network and a smartphone, anyone who has passed the identity(身份) check can be an online teacher, and anyone with an online account can buy "pay-for-knowledge" products that he or she wants at an affordable price. Second, people are afraid to miss any information. On one hand, people hope for more useful information.
On the other hand, such information is usually at the hands of experts (专家) who serve well-known companies and universities. Moreover, the need to learn new skills in today's job market also pushes people to learn on such educational podcasts.
The industry of "pay-for-knowledge" has proved to be lucrative. It promises possibilities of turning information into money. It is good for the development of our country and it can help sellers make lots of money. Besides, buyers can enjoy self-growth from it. What's more, this is a reflection(反映)of respect for knowledge and talents.
However, the rapid development of "pay-for-knowledge" has a few problems. For one thing, the market is full of eye-catching words such as "How to be an Industry's Expert in 5 Hours" and "15 Classes to Be a Master of Appreciating (欣赏) Classical Music", which sound like if you pay for it, you are sure to succeed. For another, a large number of customers buy them just for showing off. In fact, those who have really had self-growth after buying online courses may be the kind of people who need them least. In other words, with or without these courses, they can make it anyway, because they are those who have the ability to learn by themselves.
In general, the best is the one that suits you most. "Pay-for-knowledge" may be used as a good start for self-growth. Be careful! Otherwise, your dream of success may not come true.
52.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. "Pay-for-knowledge" products can help all the people succeed.
B. "Pay-for-knowledge" products can offer people different kinds of courses.
C. People who can teach themselves need "pay-for-knowledge" products most.
D. People must learn from experts who serve famous companies and universities.
53.What can we learn about "pay-for-knowledge" industry from Paragraph 2
A. The history of its development. B. The problems of its products.
C. The advantages of its products. D. The causes of its rise.
54.The underlined phrase "be lucrative" in Paragraph 3 means "_____________".
A. produce lots of money B. get much information
C. win great respect D. enjoy self-growth
55.The main purpose of this passage is to___________.
A. recommend the "pay-for-knowledge" products to people
B. advise everyone to learn knowledge by themselves online
C. remind people to choose "pay-for-knowledge" products wisely
D. teach parents how to buy some online courses for their children

七、任务型阅读（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）
（A）
People use colour expressions to show their feelings and describe the world. Many colour-related phrases are common in our speech. Let’s see where they came from.
The Blues
The phrase is a short form of “the blue devils”, which also stands for sad feelings. This expression is also used to describe a type of jazz music that became popular in the south of America in the 1940s.
Black Sheep of the Family
The phrase refers to a member of a family or a group who is unacceptable. In the old days, the black sheep were sold at a lower price than the white ones at the market, because their fleece(羊毛) could not be coloured. This made the black sheep an unwelcome member of the group.
A Red-letter Day
A Red-letter Day is a day when something really exciting and memorable(难忘的) happens. It came from the practice of marking special western days, holidays, or other festivals in red on the calendar. Today, some calendars still use red numbers for special holidays, even weekends.
Green with Envy
Writers such as Shakespeare in the 16th century used the colour green to stand for envy, but it was the Greeks who connected it with sickness caused by envy. When a person was full of envy, his or her body produced too much bile(胆汁), giving his or her skin a greenish colour. That is green with envy.

You may have heard the saying “The Yangtze River is China’s mother river.” The main route of the Yangtze is almost 6,400 km long. As the world’s third-longest river, it covers one-fifth of China’s land area. The Yangtze River Economic Zone (长江经济带) covers 11 provinces and cities, making up about two-fifths of China’s total population and GDP.
On December 26, China passed the Yangtze River Protection Law, which took effect on March 1, 2021. It is the first law to protect a waterway in China.
The “mother river” is in great need of protection because something is wrong with it. For example, because of overfishing and water pollution, the river’s Chinese paddlefish (白鲟) has died out after surviving for 150 million years. There’re also desertified (荒漠化的) land and soil pollution near the upstream part of the river in Qinghai province.
The Yangtze River Protection Law includes bans (禁止) on activity that could damage the river. It also includes heavier punishments for those who don’t follow the law.
According to the law, fishing will be banned in all of the Yangtze’s natural waterways. Those who are caught fishing will be fined 50,000 to 500,000 yuan.
Sand mining (采沙) will be strictly limited in the river valley. Many companies are mining sand along the river, as sand is a rare resource. However, the water levels on this river have dropped because of this, which has made the river’s water quality become worse.
Companies operating along the river will need to focus on green panies that produce dangerous chemicals will be moved to other places, the law says.
