Sammie Vance knows it feels bad to be left out. So she has been helping kids who feel lonely make friends.
Sammie is 14. When she was in the third grade, she started the Buddy Bench program. That was at her school, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Anyone who felt lonely could sit on the “buddy bench.” It showed others that someone needed a friend.
The bench brought kids together. “There was one little boy at school, younger than me,” Sammie told TIME for Kids. “He would see me in the hallway and give me a thumbs-up. That told me that what I was doing helped him.”
It costs money to build benches. Sammie decided to make them out of recycled materials. This lowered the cost. And the benches were eco-friendly.
Sammie gathered friends in her community. They collected 1,200 pounds of bottle caps. A company called Green Tree Plastics made three benches with the bottle caps.
Sammie has helped communities all over the country set up buddy benches. And she is spreading kindness around the world. “We recently got a bench in Ghana, Africa,” she says. “That was cool.”
Sammie reminds us that kids can help their community. Even small acts of kindness can be powerful. “You don’t have to be an adult to make a difference,” she says.
Sammie wrote a book. It is called Inspire the World: A Kid’s Journey to Making a Difference. It tells the story of her buddy benches. Sammie hopes her example will inspire others. “I used to be really, really shy,” she says. Building buddy benches gave her confidence. “I’m definitely more outgoing now.”
1. When did Sammie start the Buddy Bench program
A. In the third grade. B. In the fourth grade.
C. In the fifth grade. D. In the sixth grade.
2. What does Sammie do to help lonely kids
A. She helps them find a new hobby.
B. She introduces them to her friends.
C. She starts a program to help them make friends.

3. How did Sammie lower the cost of making benches
A. She raised money herself. B. She cycled to find materials.
C. She turned to her parents. D. She used recycled materials.
4. What does Sammie hope to do by writing a book
A. To inspire children to make differences.
B. To raise more money for her journey.

As in other countries, road safety is always a concern in America. Studies show that in 2022, 7,485 pedestrians (行人) were killed by vehicles in the U.S. That’s an increase of more than 65% since 2012. Even during COVID-19, when fewer people were driving, more pedestrians were hit and more died.
Researchers found that drivers took advantage of empty streets and pay little attention to traffic rules. Another factor is the increasing popularity of SUVs, pickups (皮卡) and vans. These kinds of vehicles are up to three times more dangerous than smaller cars when hit pedestrians. The more fault drivers believe they could bear for the hitting, the more likely they are to leave without giving any help. Younger male drivers are more likely to run away. So are those who get drunken or lack a driving license. Other factors include the age of the victim, as children and elderly people are less likely to be left alone. Also, with more witnesses around, the drivers are less likely to hit and run.
In the U.S. drivers run away from serious crashes with pedestrians about 20% of the time, and the rate is very different among different states.
In 2020, 6,519 pedestrians were killed in the U.S. Speeding driving were a major cause. While Florida “wins” the least number of deaths caused by speeding. These following states were reported to have the most dangerous road accidents.
Ten most dangerous states for pedestrians
5. What does the first paragraph tell us
A. Road security worries Americans.
B. Pedestrian are on the rise over time.
C. COVID-19 caused more road accidents.
D. Vehicles have doubled since 2012.
6. Which kind of vehicles is the least dangerous in America
A. Cars. B. SUVs. C. Pickups. D. Vans.
7. What can we learn from the passage
A. Young drivers are more likely to be honest.
B. Drunken driving is now allowed in America.
C. Children and the old are well protected in the U.S.
D. Drivers are more honest if witnessed by more people.
8. Which of the following states is the most suitable for tourists on foot
A. New Mexico. B. New York.
C. Florida. D. South Carolina.
【答案】5. A 6. A 7. D 8. C
【解析】

Even during COVID-19, when fewer people were driving, more pedestrians were hit and more died. (和其他国家一样，美国的道路安全一直是人们关心的问题。研究表明，2022年，美国有7485名行人被汽车撞死，自2012年以来增长了65%以上。即使在2019冠状病毒病期间，当开车的人减少时，也有更多的行人被撞，更多人死亡)”可知，本段说明道路安全让美国人担忧，通过呈现研究结果表明道路安全问题的严峻情况。故选A项。

【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Also, with more witnesses around, the drivers are less likely to hit and run. (此外，有更多的目击者在周围，司机不太可能肇事逃逸)”可知，目击者越多，肇事司机越不可能肇事逃逸，即越老实。故选D项。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“In 2020, 6,519 pedestrians were killed in the U.S. Speeding driving were a major cause. While Florida “wins” the least number of deaths caused by speeding. (2020年，美国有6519名行人死亡，超速驾驶是主要原因。而佛罗里达州是因超速驾驶死亡人数最少的州)”可知，佛罗里达州因超速驾驶而死亡的人数最少，因此是最适合徒步游客的地方。故选C项。

Astronomers have discovered an unusual solar system near Earth. It’s made up of six planets orbiting a star. What makes this system special is that the six planets’ orbits appear to be matched. Scientists compare their movement to a perfectly timed symphony.
“It’s precise and very orderly,” says Enric Pallé, an astronomer in the Canary Islands.
The discovery was announced on November 29. It’s based on data from two orbiting satellites, NASA’s TESS and the European Space Agency’s Cheops. The newly discovered system is 100 light-years from Earth, or about 600 trillion (万亿) miles. That’s close, in space terms. Astronomers are calling the system a “golden target” for further study. It could offer an example of how systems across the Milky Way were formed.
All solar systems are thought to have started out like this one. But they rarely keep their perfect timing. Giant planets can throw off the orbits of other planets. So can meteor (流星) impact. These things have happened in our solar system.
Hugh Osborn, of the University of Bern, in Switzerland, says his team was “shocked and delighted” by the discovery. “My jaw was on the floor,” he says. “That was a really nice moment.”
9. What is special about the solar system recently discovered
A It is made up of six orbiting planets.
B. The planets’ orbits are perfectly matched.
C. It is located 100 light-years away from Earth.
D. The discovery was made using satellite data.
10. What is the significance of the newly discovered solar system
A. It is the closest solar system to Earth in the Milky Way.
B. It is a clear target for future exploration tasks in space.
C. It challenges the common thought about solar system.
D. It offers an example of the formation of other systems.
11. Which can affect the perfect timing of a solar system’s orbits
A. The impact of meteors.
B. The researches of astronomers.
C. The formation of the Milky Way.
D. The influence of orbiting satellites.
12. How did Hugh Osborn and his team react to the discovery
A. They were very doubtful and critical.
B. They were quite surprised and excited.
C. They were confused and disappointed.
D. They were indifferent and uninterested.
【答案】9. B 10. D 11. A 12. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了天文学家们发现了一个位于地球附近的不寻常的太阳系。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“What makes this system special is that the six planets’ orbits appear to be matched. Scientists compare their movement to a perfectly timed symphony. (这个系统的特殊之处在于，这六颗行星的轨道似乎是匹配的。科学家们将他们的运动比作一首时间恰到好处的交响乐。)”可知，最近发现的太阳系行星的轨道完全匹配。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“It could offer an example of how systems across the Milky Way were formed. (它可以提供一个银河系系统是如何形成的例子。)”可知，新发现的太阳系提供了其他系统形成的一个例子。故选D。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Giant planets can throw off the orbits of other planets. So can meteor (流星) impact. (巨行星可以偏离其他行星的轨道。流星也会这样影响。)”可知，巨行星和流星的撞击都有可能扰乱行星的轨道。故选A。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Hugh Osborn, of the University of Bern, in Switzerland, says his team was “shocked and delighted” by the discovery. “My jaw was on the floor,” he says. “That was a really nice moment.” (瑞士伯尔尼大学的Hugh Osborn表示，他的团队对这一发现感到“震惊和欣喜”。“我的下巴掉在地板上了，”他说。“那是一个非常美好的时刻。”)”可知，Hugh Osborn和他的团队对这个发现感到震惊和欣喜，形容这一发现是一个非常美好的时刻，所以他们对于这一发现感觉惊讶和兴奋。故选B。

Physical weakness, lack of energy, severe hair loss, and pain in the neck, are more common among young people recently. More people are now turning to TCM for help, which stands for traditional Chinese medicine.
Wang Louda, 30, who works in the social media industry, has gained a new respect for TCM after suffering from cervical(颈椎) pain.
Six months ago, while driving home from work, Wang suddenly felt weakness in his left arm. He thought it was due to the hard work he was doing and that a good rest over the weekend would relieve it.
However, the situation worsened after a week. He had no choice but to go to the hospital for an examination, which showed something wrong with his cervical.
A friend recommended that he try acupuncture(针灸). After over a month of treatment with TCM, his pain had gradually disappeared.
“TCM is relatively gentle and suitable for treating chronic (慢性的) diseases,” Wang says.
Modern people, due to the endless use of mobile phones and computers, spend up to 10 hours a day sitting to study or work. This sedentary lifestyle, lacking in enough physical activity, means that the muscles and bones cannot receive enough relaxation and exercise, gradually leading to damage. Problems such as neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, and leg pain are becoming increasingly common.
Yao Jingyi, who works at a TCM clinic in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, has been engaged in the clinic for over 30 years. He is skilled in treating sports injuries, cervical pain, and chronic diseases.
“Acupuncture is one of the treasures of traditional Chinese medicine,” Yao explains.
According to him, the ancient practice of acupuncture woks well in treating “modern illnesses”, such as headache, backache and cervical pain.
13. How did Wang Louda recover from cervical pain
A. By taking enough exercise.
B. By visiting clinics of TCM.
C. By taking his friend’s medicine.
D. By having good rests every day.
14. Which can help keep people away from common diseases
A. The lack of sleep.
B. Endless use of Mobile phones.
C. Long hours’ sitting.
D. Enough relaxation and exercise.
15. What does the underlined word “sedentary” in the 7th paragraph probably mean
A. Inactive. B. Unusual. C. Flexible. D. Common.
16. What is the passage mainly about
A. The history of traditional Chinese medical treatment.
B. An advertisement for traditional Chinese medicine.
C. The modern popularity of traditional Chinese treatment.
D. The future development of Chinese acupuncture.
【答案】13. B 14. D 15. A 16. C
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第五段第二句“After over a month of treatment with TCM, his pain had gradually disappeared.”（经过一个多月中医治疗，他的疼痛逐渐消失了。）可知，Wang Louda是经过一个多月的中医治疗从颈椎疼痛中恢复过来的。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段“Modern people, due to the endless use of mobile phones and computers, spend up to 10 hours a day sitting to study or work.”（由于无休止地使用手机和电脑，现代人每天坐着学习或工作的时间长达10个小时。）以及“This sedentary lifestyle, lacking in enough physical activity, means that the muscles and bones cannot receive enough relaxation and exercise, gradually leading to damage.”（这种久坐不动的生活方式，缺乏足够的体育活动，意味着肌肉和骨骼无法得到足够的放松和锻炼，逐渐导致损伤。）可知，青年人得常见病的原因主要包含久坐不动，缺乏足够的体力活动，和得不到足够的放松和锻炼，推断出足够的放松和锻炼可以帮助年轻人远离常见病。故选D项。

As a child, I didn’t enjoy cartoons like other girls my age, but I did love listening to discussions about politics (政治). I was very talkative and asked too many questions, which wore out the patience of my friends and sometimes even the adults around me. My Grade 4 report summarized my social relations with “needs improvement”.
It wasn’t until I turned 46 that I learned my uniqueness has a name — autism (自闭症). My diagnosis (诊断) was like discovering a missing piece of my brain, picking it up, putting it in place and feeling whole for the first time. From then on, I started to fully enjoy life. What I’ve found out since is that there are a number of others like me — people who weren’t diagnosed as having autism until midlife.
In my 20s, I talked with a doctor about my growing anxiety. But autism never entered the conversation. In early 2017, I began a new job in which I was being praised and recognised as never before, so I didn’t know how to deal with it. As I neared the end of my one-year work, all the symptoms (症状) of my undiagnosed condition appeared in my working environment: becoming so stressed out because of overwork. Then, two months later, I received my diagnosis. Finally everything started to make sense.
Today, I have my own company called Liberty Co., which suggests that facing the facts brings us freedom. Our goal is to increase the population of people like me in the workplace. It gives me a chance to be a supporter for women with autism.
17. What do we know about the author as a child
A. She was patient. B. She was different.
C. She got good grades in school. D. She tried to stand out from her classmates.
18. How did the author feel about her diagnosis
A. Thankful. B. Concerned.
C. Doubtful. D. Dissatisfied.
19. What made the author’s symptoms worse
A. No recognition from her co-workers. B. Not seeing doctors very often.
C. The anxiety about her social relations. D. The stress of her new job.
20. Why did the author set up her own business
A. To support women’s equal rights.
B. To help people in the workplace connect more.
C. To include more autistic people at work.
D. To teach women with autism survival skills.
【答案】17. B 18. A 19. D 20. C
【解析】

(2017年初，我开始了一份新的工作，在这份工作中，我得到了前所未有的表扬和认可，所以我不知道该如何应对。当我一年的工作接近尾声时，我未确诊的病症的所有症状都出现在我的工作环境中：因为工作过度而变得非常紧张)”可推知，来自新工作的压力使作者的情况恶化了。故选D项。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today, I have my own company called Liberty Co., which suggests that facing the facts brings us freedom. Our goal is to increase the population of people like me in the workplace.

【答案】Ladies and gentlemen,
It’s my great honor to have been given the chance to share with you my opinion on health.
Health refers to the sound condition of a person’s body and mind, which lays the foundation for our life, work and relationships. A healthy body shelters us from diseases and enables us to participate in all forms of activities. Mental health, on the other hand, gets us through hardships in the peace and balance of mind.
Therefore, I suggest that all of us make the most of One Hour of Sunshine Sport and dive into varieties of physical exercises on campus. We should safeguard our mental well-being and seek help if needed. It proves effective to improve our mental health with laughter, meditation, and positive thinking.
That’s all. Thank you!

A
Sammie Vance knows it feels bad to be left out. So she has been helping kids who feel lonely make friends.
Sammie is 14. When she was in the third grade, she started the Buddy Bench program. That was at her school, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Anyone who felt lonely could sit on the “buddy bench.” It showed others that someone needed a friend.
The bench brought kids together. “There was one little boy at school, younger than me,” Sammie told TIME for Kids. “He would see me in the hallway and give me a thumbs-up. That told me that what I was doing helped him.”
It costs money to build benches. Sammie decided to make them out of recycled materials. This lowered the cost. And the benches were eco-friendly.
Sammie gathered friends in her community. They collected 1,200 pounds of bottle caps. A company called Green Tree Plastics made three benches with the bottle caps.
Sammie has helped communities all over the country set up buddy benches. And she is spreading kindness around the world. “We recently got a bench in Ghana, Africa,” she says. “That was cool.”
Sammie reminds us that kids can help their community. Even small acts of kindness can be powerful. “You don’t have to be an adult to make a difference,” she says.
Sammie wrote a book. It is called Inspire the World: A Kid’s Journey to Making a Difference. It tells the story of her buddy benches. Sammie hopes her example will inspire others. “I used to be really, really shy,” she says. Building buddy benches gave her confidence. “I’m definitely more outgoing now.”

As in other countries, road safety is always a concern in America. Studies show that in 2022, 7,485 pedestrians (行人) were killed by vehicles in the U.S. That’s an increase of more than 65% since 2012. Even during COVID-19, when fewer people were driving, more pedestrians were hit and more died.
Researchers found that drivers took advantage of empty streets and pay little attention to traffic rules. Another factor is the increasing popularity of SUVs, pickups (皮卡) and vans. These kinds of vehicles are up to three times more dangerous than smaller cars when hit pedestrians. The more fault drivers believe they could bear for the hitting, the more likely they are to leave without giving any help. Younger male drivers are more likely to run away. So are those who get drunken or lack a driving license. Other factors include the age of the victim, as children and elderly people are less likely to be left alone. Also, with more witnesses around, the drivers are less likely to hit and run.
In the U.S. drivers run away from serious crashes with pedestrians about 20% of the time, and the rate is very different among different states.
In 2020, 6,519 pedestrians were killed in the U.S. Speeding driving were a major cause. While Florida “wins” the least number of deaths caused by speeding. These following states were reported to have the most dangerous road accidents.
Ten most dangerous states for pedestrians
5. What does the first paragraph tell us
A. Road security worries Americans.
B Pedestrian are on the rise over time.
C COVID-19 caused more road accidents.
D. Vehicles have doubled since 2012.
6. Which kind of vehicles is the least dangerous in America
A. Cars. B. SUVs. C. Pickups. D. Vans.
7. What can we learn from the passage
A. Young drivers are more likely to be honest.
B. Drunken driving is now allowed in America.
C. Children and the old are well protected in the U.S.
D. Drivers are more honest if witnessed by more people.
8. Which of the following states is the most suitable for tourists on foot
A. New Mexico. B. New York.
C. Florida. D. South Carolina.

Astronomers have discovered an unusual solar system near Earth. It’s made up of six planets orbiting a star. What makes this system special is that the six planets’ orbits appear to be matched. Scientists compare their movement to a perfectly timed symphony.
“It’s precise and very orderly,” says Enric Pallé, an astronomer in the Canary Islands.
The discovery was announced on November 29. It’s based on data from two orbiting satellites, NASA’s TESS and the European Space Agency’s Cheops. The newly discovered system is 100 light-years from Earth, or about 600 trillion (万亿) miles. That’s close, in space terms. Astronomers are calling the system a “golden target” for further study. It could offer an example of how systems across the Milky Way were formed.
All solar systems are thought to have started out like this one. But they rarely keep their perfect timing. Giant planets can throw off the orbits of other planets. So can meteor (流星) impact. These things have happened in our solar system.
Hugh Osborn, of the University of Bern, in Switzerland, says his team was “shocked and delighted” by the discovery. “My jaw was on the floor,” he says. “That was a really nice moment.”
9. What is special about the solar system recently discovered
A. It is made up of six orbiting planets.
B. The planets’ orbits are perfectly matched.
C. It is located 100 light-years away from Earth.
D. The discovery was made using satellite data.
10. What is the significance of the newly discovered solar system
A. It is the closest solar system to Earth in the Milky Way.
B. It is a clear target for future exploration tasks in space.
C. It challenges the common thought about solar system.
D. It offers an example of the formation of other systems.
11. Which can affect the perfect timing of a solar system’s orbits
A. The impact of meteors.
B. The researches of astronomers.
C. The formation of the Milky Way.
D. The influence of orbiting satellites.
12. How did Hugh Osborn and his team react to the discovery
A. They were very doubtful and critical.
B. They were quite surprised and excited.
C. They were confused and disappointed.
D. They were indifferent and uninterested.
D
Physical weakness, lack of energy, severe hair loss, and pain in the neck, are more common among young people recently. More people are now turning to TCM for help, which stands for traditional Chinese medicine.
Wang Louda, 30, who works in the social media industry, has gained a new respect for TCM after suffering from cervical(颈椎) pain.
Six months ago, while driving home from work, Wang suddenly felt weakness in his left arm. He thought it was due to the hard work he was doing and that a good rest over the weekend would relieve it.
However, the situation worsened after a week. He had no choice but to go to the hospital for an examination, which showed something wrong with his cervical.
A friend recommended that he try acupuncture(针灸). After over a month of treatment with TCM, his pain had gradually disappeared.
“TCM is relatively gentle and suitable for treating chronic (慢性的) diseases,” Wang says.
Modern people, due to the endless use of mobile phones and computers, spend up to 10 hours a day sitting to study or work. This sedentary lifestyle, lacking in enough physical activity, means that the muscles and bones cannot receive enough relaxation and exercise, gradually leading to damage. Problems such as neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, and leg pain are becoming increasingly common.
Yao Jingyi, who works at a TCM clinic in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, has been engaged in the clinic for over 30 years. He is skilled in treating sports injuries, cervical pain, and chronic diseases.
“Acupuncture is one of the treasures of traditional Chinese medicine,” Yao explains.
According to him, the ancient practice of acupuncture woks well in treating “modern illnesses”, such as headache, backache and cervical pain.
13. How did Wang Louda recover from cervical pain
A. By taking enough exercise.
B. By visiting clinics of TCM.
C. By taking his friend’s medicine.
D. By having good rests every day.
14. Which can help keep people away from common diseases
A. The lack of sleep.
B. Endless use of Mobile phones.
C. Long hours’ sitting.
D. Enough relaxation and exercise.
15. What does the underlined word “sedentary” in the 7th paragraph probably mean
A. Inactive. B. Unusual. C. Flexible. D. Common.
16. What is the passage mainly about
A. The history of traditional Chinese medical treatment.
B. An advertisement for traditional Chinese medicine.
C. The modern popularity of traditional Chinese treatment.
D. The future development of Chinese acupuncture.
E
As a child, I didn’t enjoy cartoons like other girls my age, but I did love listening to discussions about politics (政治). I was very talkative and asked too many questions, which wore out the patience of my friends and sometimes even the adults around me. My Grade 4 report summarized my social relations with “needs improvement”.
It wasn’t until I turned 46 that I learned my uniqueness has a name — autism (自闭症). My diagnosis (诊断) was like discovering a missing piece of my brain, picking it up, putting it in place and feeling whole for the first time. From then on, I started to fully enjoy life. What I’ve found out since is that there are a number of others like me — people who weren’t diagnosed as having autism until midlife.
In my 20s, I talked with a doctor about my growing anxiety. But autism never entered the conversation. In early 2017, I began a new job in which I was being praised and recognised as never before, so I didn’t know how to deal with it. As I neared the end of my one-year work, all the symptoms (症状) of my undiagnosed condition appeared in my working environment: becoming so stressed out because of overwork. Then, two months later, I received my diagnosis. Finally everything started to make sense.
Today, I have my own company called Liberty Co., which suggests that facing the facts brings us freedom. Our goal is to increase the population of people like me in the workplace. It gives me a chance to be a supporter for women with autism.
17. What do we know about the author as a child
A She was patient. B. She was different.
C. She got good grades in school. D. She tried to stand out from her classmates.
18. How did the author feel about her diagnosis
A. Thankful. B. Concerned.
C. Doubtful. D. Dissatisfied.
19. What made the author’s symptoms worse
A. No recognition from her co-workers. B. Not seeing doctors very often.
C. The anxiety about her social relations. D. The stress of her new job.
20. Why did the author set up her own business
A. To support women’s equal rights.
B To help people in the workplace connect more.
C. To include more autistic people at work.
D. To teach women with autism survival skills.
