（2023·江苏扬州 · 统考一模） Making time for tea
These days, milk tea shops can be seen everywhere. However, it’s not easy to find one run by high school
students.
Wu Jiawei, 16, is the owner of a milk tea shop in Maoming, Guangdong province. The Senior 2 student has run the shop for half a year and his milk tea is loved by students. The average daily turnover (营业额) is more than
1,000 yuan.
Wu got the idea after gaining lots of local followers online from doing a casual live stream (直播). He wanted to make these followers potential (潜在的) customers and start something big. His parents have run a restaurant
since he was little, giving him natural exposure (接触) to business management.
Wu used specific ways to attract students. For example, the price of a cup of milk tea at Wu’s shop is around 10 percent lower than the drinks at others. Also, Wu’s shop opens at 4 p. m. on weekdays, right after school.
Although he has the stress of balancing study and work, this exactly meets students’ needs.
He hired a friend who is studying at a vocational (职业的) school to manage the shop. “My customers love him because he is also a teenager and can chat with them about study and life,” Wu said. “My idea of good service
is being personal and enthusiastic (热情的).”
Wu also runs self-media accounts, like Douyin and Xiaohongshu, to improve his business. He used titles like
“a 16-year-old high school student opens his own shop” to catch people’s attention.
In the future, Wu wants to make his brand a chain store in China. He wants to make innovations (创新) in
both taste and packaging, and he says this will be his lifelong career.

It was a Friday morning, 7:30 am. I felt too lazy to drive my car, so my son booked a Uber(优步， 即网约 车). In five minutes, the Uber reached our door. I checked the car number and got inside the car. I was busy

（2023 春· 江苏宿迁· 九年级校考阶段练习）The meaning of the word “volunteer” may be a little different in different countries, but it usually means one who offers his or her “services”. There are many different ways in which people can volunteer, such as taking care of sick people, working in homes for homeless children, and picking up garbage(垃圾) from beaches and parks. Volunteers may work within their own countries or in other countries. They are often people with a strong wish to help those who are less fortunate than themselves.
Volunteers don’t expect any kind of pay.
At the root of volunteering is the idea that one person may have the ability to offer services that can help other people. Tracy, a good friend of mine, however, recently came back from India with a new idea of what being a volunteer means. She worked for two and a half weeks in one of Mother Teresa’s homes in Calcutta(加尔
各答). The following is her story.
“I first heard about Mother Teresa in my high school, we watched a video about her work in India and all over the world. I was so moved by her spirit(精神) to help others and her endless love for every human being that after I graduated from high school, I too wanted to try her kind of work. So with two friends I flew to Calcutta for a few
weeks.”
“I was asked to work in a home for sick people. I helped wash clothes and sheets, and pass out lunch. I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer them up. I felt it was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them. To be honest, I don’t think I was helping very much. It was then that I realized that I had not really come to help, but to learn about and experience another culture that helped improve
my own understanding of life and the world.”
8 ．According to the text, a volunteer refers to a person who .
A ．is willing to help those in need without pay B ．can afford to travel to different places
C ．has a strong wish to be successful D ．has made a lot of money in life
9 ．Tracy started her work as a volunteer .
A ．after she met Mother Teresa B ．after she finished high school
C ．when she was touring Calcutta D ．when she was working in a hospital
10 ．Why did Tracy choose to be a volunteer
A ．She liked to work with Mother Teresa. B ．She had already had some experience.
C ．She was asked by Mother Teresa. D ．She wanted to follow Mother Teresa’s example.
（2023·江苏扬州 · 统考一模）Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my
father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of
the nice things, which is just like your life.”
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope
in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal (水晶).

（2023 春 · 江苏扬州 · 九年级校联考阶段练习） Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily,
I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope
that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I
would say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work, I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship
Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone

（2022 春· 江苏扬州· 九年级校联考期中）He was an old man who fished alone in a small boat on the sea and he had gone eighty-four days now without taking a fish. In the first forty days a boy had been with him. But after forty days without a fish, the boy’s parents had told him that the old man was now salao, which is the worst form of unlucky, and ordered the boy to join another boat, which caught three good fish the first week.

sad to see the old man come in each day with his boat empty. The sail looked like the flag of failure forever.
The old man was thin with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck. His face was terribly brown because of the strong sunlight on the sea every day and his hands had the deep scars from dealing with heavy fish on the lines. But none of these scars were fresh.

the sea and were cheerful.

made some money.”
The old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him.

（2023 春 · 江苏泰州 · 九年级统考阶段练习）Before we upload a photo of ourselves to social media, like WeChat, we’ll use an app to smooth our skin, make our eyes look bigger, and give us longer eyelashes and fuller
lips. With a couple of touches on our mobile phone, we’re able to present the best pictures of ourselves to others.
However, the problem is, when we simply edit our imperfections（瑕疵）away, we’re also changing the way
we look at our ourselves. （1）.
Last month, researchers from the US Boston University published an article Selfies—Living in the Era of Filtered（滤镜）Photographs. The article listed the bad effects of photo editing on people and the possibility to
cause appearance worries. （2）.
The researchers think that these apps make it difficult to tell between reality and fantasy（虚幻） . “These
apps allow one to change his or her appearance in minutes and follow an unrealistic standard of beauty,” the
article says. （3）.
In the past, people might compare their looks to those who were famous that time. But for today’s young people, beauty standards are most likely set by what they see on social media. “From birth, they are born into an
age of social platforms, and their feelings are connected to how good they look,” a British doctor Escho said.
（4） “Now you’ve got the comparison of your real self to fake self that you present on social media,” Renee Engeln, a professor at Northwestern University, told the HuffPost website. He further pointed out that when people spend too much time comparing with others, they may become “beauty sick” and find it difficult to accept
what they actually look like.
So when we look in a real mirror, we shouldn’t think to ourselves, “Do I look as good as myself in the Beauty
Cam（美颜） ” Instead, we should think, “I feel good. I have my health.”
28 ．What may people do before they present the best of themselves on social media
A ．Wearing false eyelashes. B ．Redding their lips before going out.
C ．Using apps to edit photos. D ．Smoothing their skin in the morning.
29 ．Where should we put the sentence “This is why many young people suffer an appearance worries when it
comes to how they really look.”
A ．（4） B ．（3） C ．（2） D ．（1）
30 ．Who did people use to compare their looks to
A ．Famous people. B ．People who they see on social media.
C ．Family members. D ．Their friends.
31 ．Which of the following is right according to the passage
A ．Everybody looks as good as himself in the Beauty Cam.
B ．These apps make it easy to tell between reality and fantasy.
C ．The article listed the bad and good effects of photo editing on people.
D ．People today pay more attention on how good they look than in the past.
32 ．What did the author write this passage for
A ．To call on people to care more about appearance.
B ．To call on people not to use apps on mobile phones.
C ．To call on people to spend too much time comparing with others.
D ．To call on people to learn something more important than appearance.
（2022·江苏常州 · 校考二模）I have been a staff writer for the school newspaper, the Dagligtale, since my
first day here at the University of Alberta. I probably won’t work as a journalist after my graduation, but this doesn’t mean my experience in student journalism has been useless. In fact, I have picked up many important
skills through this job.
I still remember my first news story. It was about the victory of the school baseball team. I attended the celebration and was told to do some interviews. I was frightened. Talking to strangers was one of my fears. But I gathered my courage and did it. I talked to the students, the players and the team leader. It was something I had
never dreamed of doing before. This opportunity gave me confidence and helped me to improve my social skills.
In journalism, everything has to be based on facts. As a student journalist. I have learned to do research and to think critically about what I read. Discovering the facts is important when you are writing for the school
newspaper, but in the Information Age, this is also an increasingly useful skill in everyday life.
As a student journalist, I always know that I have a lot to learn. I’m never afraid of asking people for feedback ( 反馈意见). I have learned how not to take negative feedback personally and how to use it to make
improvements to myself.
Journalism is a stressful field to work in, but I’m thankful that I have had the opportunity to try my hand at it. It has taught me to be a better storyteller, student and citizen. If you are ever given a chance to write for a campus
newspaper or magazine, take it and learn everything you can!

（2023·江苏扬州 · 统考一模） Making time for tea
These days, milk tea shops can be seen everywhere. However, it’s not easy to find one run by high school
students.

“a 16-year-old high school student opens his own shop” to catch people’s attention.

both taste and packaging, and he says this will be his lifelong career.

（2023 春· 江苏宿迁· 九年级校考阶段练习）The meaning of the word “volunteer” may be a little different in different countries, but it usually means one who offers his or her “services”. There are many different ways in which people can volunteer, such as taking care of sick people, working in homes for homeless children, and picking up garbage(垃圾) from beaches and parks. Volunteers may work within their own countries or in other countries. They are often people with a strong wish to help those who are less fortunate than themselves.
Volunteers don’t expect any kind of pay.
At the root of volunteering is the idea that one person may have the ability to offer services that can help other people. Tracy, a good friend of mine, however, recently came back from India with a new idea of what being a volunteer means. She worked for two and a half weeks in one of Mother Teresa’s homes in Calcutta(加尔
各答). The following is her story.
“I first heard about Mother Teresa in my high school, we watched a video about her work in India and all over the world. I was so moved by her spirit(精神) to help others and her endless love for every human being that after I graduated from high school, I too wanted to try her kind of work. So with two friends I flew to Calcutta for a few
weeks.”
“I was asked to work in a home for sick people. I helped wash clothes and sheets, and pass out lunch. I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer them up. I felt it was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them. To be honest, I don’t think I was helping very much. It was then that I realized that I had not really come to help, but to learn about and experience another culture that helped improve
my own understanding of life and the world.”
8 ．According to the text, a volunteer refers to a person who .
A ．is willing to help those in need without pay B ．can afford to travel to different places
C ．has a strong wish to be successful D ．has made a lot of money in life
9 ．Tracy started her work as a volunteer .
A ．after she met Mother Teresa B ．after she finished high school
C ．when she was touring Calcutta D ．when she was working in a hospital
10 ．Why did Tracy choose to be a volunteer
A ．She liked to work with Mother Teresa. B ．She had already had some experience.
C ．She was asked by Mother Teresa. D ．She wanted to follow Mother Teresa’s example.

Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my
father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing.

I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of
the nice things, which is just like your life.”
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the meaning of hope
in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal (水晶).

I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope

Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I
would say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”

Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone

But after forty days without a fish, the boy’s parents had told him that the old man was now salao, which is the worst form of unlucky, and ordered the boy to join another boat, which caught three good fish the first week. It made the boy
sad to see the old man come in each day with his boat empty. The sail looked like the flag of failure forever.
The old man was thin with deep wrinkles in the back of his neck. His face was terribly brown because of the strong sunlight on the sea every day and his hands had the deep scars from dealing with heavy fish on the lines. But none of these scars were fresh.

the sea and were cheerful.
“Santiago,” the boy said to him as they climbed the bank from the sea.“I could go with you again. We’ve
made some money.”
The old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him.

（2023 春 · 江苏泰州 · 九年级统考阶段练习）Before we upload a photo of ourselves to social media, like WeChat, we’ll use an app to smooth our skin, make our eyes look bigger, and give us longer eyelashes and fuller
lips. With a couple of touches on our mobile phone, we’re able to present the best pictures of ourselves to others.
However, the problem is, when we simply edit our imperfections（瑕疵）away, we’re also changing the way
we look at our ourselves. （1）.
Last month, researchers from the US Boston University published an article Selfies—Living in the Era of Filtered（滤镜）Photographs. The article listed the bad effects of photo editing on people and the possibility to
cause appearance worries. （2）.
The researchers think that these apps make it difficult to tell between reality and fantasy（虚幻） . “These
apps allow one to change his or her appearance in minutes and follow an unrealistic standard of beauty,” the
article says. （3）.
In the past, people might compare their looks to those who were famous that time. But for today’s young people, beauty standards are most likely set by what they see on social media. “From birth, they are born into an
age of social platforms, and their feelings are connected to how good they look,” a British doctor Escho said.
（4） “Now you’ve got the comparison of your real self to fake self that you present on social media,” Renee Engeln, a professor at Northwestern University, told the HuffPost website. He further pointed out that when people spend too much time comparing with others, they may become “beauty sick” and find it difficult to accept
what they actually look like.
So when we look in a real mirror, we shouldn’t think to ourselves, “Do I look as good as myself in the Beauty
Cam（美颜） ” Instead, we should think, “I feel good. I have my health.”
28 ．What may people do before they present the best of themselves on social media
A ．Wearing false eyelashes. B ．Redding their lips before going out.
C ．Using apps to edit photos. D ．Smoothing their skin in the morning.
29 ．Where should we put the sentence “This is why many young people suffer an appearance worries when it
comes to how they really look.”
A ．（4） B ．（3） C ．（2） D ．（1）
30 ．Who did people use to compare their looks to
A ．Famous people. B ．People who they see on social media.
C ．Family members. D ．Their friends.
31 ．Which of the following is right according to the passage
A ．Everybody looks as good as himself in the Beauty Cam.
B ．These apps make it easy to tell between reality and fantasy.
C ．The article listed the bad and good effects of photo editing on people.
D ．People today pay more attention on how good they look than in the past.
32 ．What did the author write this passage for
A ．To call on people to care more about appearance.
B ．To call on people not to use apps on mobile phones.
C ．To call on people to spend too much time comparing with others.
D ．To call on people to learn something more important than appearance.

newspaper, but in the Information Age, this is also an increasingly useful skill in everyday life.
As a student journalist, I always know that I have a lot to learn. I’m never afraid of asking people for feedback ( 反馈意见). I have learned how not to take negative feedback personally and how to use it to make
improvements to myself.
Journalism is a stressful field to work in, but I’m thankful that I have had the opportunity to try my hand at it. It has taught me to be a better storyteller, student and citizen. If you are ever given a chance to write for a campus
