I woke at 4 a.m. in a black hostel room, my eight roommates all still sound asleep at the early hour. I stepped outside without being noticed, forced a cheese roll into my mouth, and headed to the Kaikoura dolphin-watching tour office.
With more adrenaline (肾上腺素) than I had experienced when jumping out of a plane, I put on my flippers (脚蹼) quickly and got ready for the adventure. The moment I dove off the water, I was shocked awake. No amount of coffee, tea, or sugar has ever given me such a strong wake-up. It turns out that the ocean is freezing at 5 a.m. before the sunrise. Don’t be scared off by the temperature, though, because 5 a.m. is when the dolphins are most playful!
After a little while, I was face to face with a wild dusky dolphin! At one moment, it jumped up high into the air while the next it dove deep into the water. It made strange whale noises to draw the attention of more members of the group, including a tiny baby dolphin no bigger than a cat. What impressed me most was that the baby dolphin came close up, swam around playfully and kept looking at me with those black glassy eyes, seeming most interested in this strange fish-like creature that kept getting twisted (缠绕) in her own flippers.
The sun rose, warming my back as I continued to struggle with my flippers among the most graceful animals in the ocean. It was the most beautiful sight, as the dark blue of the ocean turned light greenish-blue, brightening our swimming companions for the early hours of the morning.
The practice of swimming with wild dolphins is banned in the North Island, where the species of Hector’s dolphins are in decline. But in Kaikoura, the practice is quite common and actually helping to increase the dolphin populations.
By supporting this adventurous experience, you’re supporting dolphin protection.
4.Why was I shocked awake when diving off the water

C.I had drunk a lot of strong coffee. D.I was surprised by the playful dolphins.
5.What problem did I have under the water

C.My strange appearance scared dolphins.
D.The baby dolphin swam around playfully.
6.How did I find my dolphin-watching
A.Dangerous but exciting. B.Adventurous and tiring.
C.Scary but unforgettable. D.Impressive and meaningful.
7.What is the best title for the passage
A.Swimming with Wild Dolphins in Kaikoura.
B.Dolphins—My Playful Companions.
C.Supporting Dolphin Protection
D.A Deep Dive into the Ocean.
C
Long before the pandemic(疫情), many adults turned to toys from Legos to collectible items to tap into their inner childhood for comfort. But all the stresses from the health problems stimulated(刺激)and strengthened the trend, according to Jim Silver, editor-in-chief of a toy review site.
This so-called “kid-adult” market is significant. Ages 18 and older represented 14% of U. S. toy industry sales, or $5. 7 billion in 2022. It grew 19% compared with that in 2021, according to the NPD Group Inc. , a market research firm. This group also enjoyed the second-fastest increase after customers aged 12 to 17.
Last year, Build-a-Bear launched a website called Bear Cave for the 18-year-old and over, highlighting items like toy rabbits holding a bottle of wine. And Basic Fun took a high-tech on the traditional Lite Brite toy from the 1960s and recreated it as wall art with thousands of pegs and 45 LED lights aimed at the adults in time for the holidays-with a $99 price tag. McDonald’s tapped into this group, releasing adult Happy Meals in October with toys designed by the fashion brand Cactus Plant Flea Market.
Loren Brereton,61,was recently visiting the American Girl store with her granddaughter Alana,7. She said that during the pandemic, she took comfort looking at her own daughter’s dolls. She also pulled out some of her son’s Lego’s and other toys and played with them. And she was thinking of buying a few playthings for herself. “All of those games have brought me comfort when I was a kid, but, you know, sort of changed you at different times when you needed it,”she said. “And you needed it. ”
“The pandemic certainly served as a stimulus for this trend as adults found themselves stuck at home with nothing else to do with a lot of time in their hands,”said Genevieve Cruz, senior director at Lego, “But we do believe that the trend goes beyond the pandemic. ”
8.What do we know about the U. S. toy industry
A.It drew more adults than teenagers. B.It used to be no attraction to adults.
C.It saw a big growth in adult market. D.It brought customers health problems.
9.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.Adult toys gradually took over the toy industry.
B.Adults had easy access to toys intended for adults.
C.Many companies launched products targeted at adults.
D.Some companies producing adult toys were established.
10.What do toys bring Loren Brereton
A.Inspiration. B.Satisfaction. C.Regret. D.Comfort.
11.Which of the following will Jim Silver and Genevieve Cruz both agree with
A.Adults are the main target of the toy industry.
B.Adult toys won’t be popular after the pandemic.
C.Health problems created the craze for adult toys.
D.The pandemic worked as a stimulus to adult toys.
D
There was a time, Wang Fuchun remembered, when all the people on Chinese trains looked more or less the same. In the late 1970s, when he started taking his photographs, everyone seemed to wear green suits and caps. The “green-skinned” trains crept between China’s main towns and cities. On board, all was chaos(混乱). Life seemed to explode on the train as if it were a stage. He did not care what seat he had, for he was on the move.
China, too, was on the move. China was rushing to the modern world, and the trains, showed it. Steam was fading; the green-skinned trains acquired fans, then air-conditioning. Then came express trains, then high-speed rail. And the passengers, too, changed. They began to wear jeans; by the 1980s they let their hair grow. The 1990s brought in a fashion for T-shirts with favourite stars. People wanted a look that was unique; they became individuals. His book Chinese on the Train, published in 2001, caught the brief span when old and new crashed.
Many slow trains had been replaced by high-speed models, as comfortable and quiet as hotels. The aisles(过道) were clear, the windows sealed. In the ordinary seats, everyone’s nose was buried in their tablets and their phones.
Over 40 years he reckoned he had ridden on 1,000 trains and covered more than 100,000 kilometres, on every line in China. He found he could not sleep properly without the clank of rails beneath him. He took about 200,000 pictures. He liked to place two of his photographs side by side. One was of a green-skinned train in 1998, with a merry line of passengers grinning out of the window. The second picture showed a pair of newly-weds (新婚夫妇) in 2015 in front of a Harmony high-speed train, holding the character for “double happiness”. He liked the message of hope. He was proud of what China had achieved.
12.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about
A.The development of trains in China.
B.The changes that took place in China.
C.The publication of an influential book.
D.Chinese people’s habits of dressing in the past.
13.What can we learn about Wang Fuchun according to the text
A.He set about photographing in 1970.
B.His book featured green-skinned trains.
C.His photos focused on ordinary people.
D.He suffered from sleep disorder on the train.
14.What did Wang Fuchun want to show by mentioning “double happiness”
A.The great changes of trains. B.The pride in rapid development.
C.The happy life of train passengers. D.The breakthrough in his photographing
15.Which of the following best describes Wang Fuchun as a photographer
A.Ambitious. B.Outgoing. C.Determined. D.Talented.

Annie’s eyes popped open Friday morning. She hurried downstairs and began to have her breakfast quickly.
“What’s the rush, early bird ” Dad asked. “Today’s my spelling test. Dad,” Annie said. “Mrs. Page promised a prize to everyone who gets 100 percent. I’ve studied the list all week. The words are hard, but I’m ready.”
Annie studied the spelling of each word again as Mom drove her to school. Finally, it was time for the test. “Impatient,” Mrs. Page began. Annie wrote down the word correctly and quickly.
“Word number two: weird,” Mrs. Page said.
“Easy,” Annie thought. She quickly wrote it on her paper.
Twenty-three words later, Mrs. Page collected the test papers. “I’ll mark your papers during lunch,” she told the class. After lunch Mrs. Page said, “Several of you earned a prize today for perfect test scores. Tracy, Jonas, Olivia, and Annie all scored 100 percent on the test!”
Annie smiled as she walked to the front of the room. Mrs. Page gave each of the four students a nice pencil. Annie’s was silver, pink, and blue — her favorite colors. She held the beautiful pencil high while the class clapped. “This is one of my best days ever,” Annie thought as she sat down.
Mrs. Page handed back the test paper and Annie read the words over, proud of the hard words she had spelled. Suddenly she stopped at the word “weird”. It didn’t look right. Annie pulled out the study list and made a comparison. “W-i-e-r-d,” she whispered. She had spelled it wrong.
“What should I do ” Annie wondered. “I want my classmates to think I’m a great speller. If I tell Mrs. Page I’ll have to give back my prize, or I will become an example for telling a lie.”
Annie stared at the test paper with the big red “100%” written at the top. Then she thought of a lesson Dad taught her when she was very young, “We should always be honest.”

My Weekend
Organized by the student union, a group of volunteers went to Hope Farm to help the farmers pick peaches last weekend. The farm is situated at the foot of a mountain, the sky is blue and the air is fresh. We were attracted by the beautiful scenery. There are different kinds of fruit trees as well as a variety of animals.
On arriving, we saw red ripe peaches hanging on the tree. Using baskets and ladders,We first picked the ones that were most beautiful in color, then those that were ripe and soft.I couldn’t wait to take a bite, and the sweet juice went down my throat.
I was grateful for this opportunity to get close to nature. Not only would I be able to experience fruit picking, but I could also feast on the sweetness!

“Mrs. Page, I didn’t get 100 percent on the test. I missed a word.” She stood up and handed her teacher the beautiful pencil and her test paper. “I spelled ‘weird’ with ‘i-e’ instead of ‘e-i.’’ Annie could feel her classmates eyeing her with surprise as she walked back to her desk. Mrs. Page held up Annie’s test paper. “Class,” she said, “Annie did something even more important than spelling every word correctly on a test.” Mrs. Page smiled at Annie. “She taught us all a lesson on being honest.”
Annie looked around. She found many of her classmates were smiling at her. “Annie, I want you to have this pencil because you set a good example for all of us,” Mrs. Page said. Annie took the beautiful silver, pink, and blue pencil from her teacher. “Thank you, Mrs. Page.” She couldn’t wait to show it to Dad and tell him one of her best days ever.
