Mr Turner always gave new students a buddy with the same hobbies as them. I was sure he wouldn’t choose me. I wasn’t one of the cool kids.

（22-23七年级下·江苏扬州·阶段练习）School Gardens Could Help Children Try More Vegetables
It’s not always enjoyable for children to eat vegetables. But what if a garden is built in the school New research suggests that a gardening program in schools can increase children’s vegetable intake (摄入量) .
How the Study Was Carried Out
The study was carried out in eight schools. Each school was in the gardening program for one school year. Every child in grades 3-5 received a total of eighteen 60-minute lessons across the school year. In the program, each school built a garden, where children learned to grow their own fresh produce, like fruit and vegetables.
The Benefits Children Could Get
The study found that vegetable intake of the children who grew their own produce increased greatly across the year. Related studies show that increased vegetable intake can improve health and cut the risk of chronic diseases (慢性疾病) . Not only are there benefits to health, increasing the variety of vegetables children are exposed (接触) to may also make mealtimes much easier. “Children who are often exposed to a variety of vegetables are more likely to try new foods,” explains Dr. Kerry Jones. For children, growing their own food is a powerful tool to increase their intake of the food.
________
Any opportunity to expose children to more vegetables is meaningful. “If children are learning about vegetables at school, it’s important to encourage this interest” says Jones. Parents can listen to their children about what they have learned and read the handouts they bring home from school. Parents and children can also read books together. Younger: children can enjoy reading stories about vegetables with parents who offer useful message. Older children may enjoy searching through cookbooks with parents to find new dinner ideas to cook vegetables in a tasty way. Besides, a small planter box in a sunny part at home can encourage children to understand more about where their food comes from.
Teaching children to grow their own produce is a great way to increase their preference for the produce. If children are taught to enjoy vegetables early in life, they will probably continue eating vegetables in the long term.
12．According to the new research, what can increase children’s vegetable intake
A．A gardening program in schools. B．Teachers in schools.
C．Classmates in schools. D．Scientists.
13．What did children do in the gardening program
A．They did research on new plants. B．They grew fresh produce at school.
C．They took home green vegetables. D．They built gardens for their classes.
14．Which of the following would be the best heading for Paragraph 4
A．Ideas to Encourage Children to Cook at Home
B．Ways to Expose Children to Vegetables at Home
C．Reasons Why Parents Should Understand Children
D．Suggestions Which Children Could Get from Parents
15．What can we learn from the program
A．Parents’ support might improve children’s reading.
B．School programs could develop students’ creativity.
C．Doing studies can prepare students for future learning.
D．Hands-on experience may influence children’s preference.

（22-23七年级下·江苏南京·阶段练习）Everyone knows hand-washing is important. But a new study shows how washing your hands often, and at the right time, can have an effect on your family’s risk(危险) for getting sick. Most studies on hand-washing focus on medical and food service workers. But washing hands at home is a way to stop viruses 病毒from spreading. Several studies show hands are the single most important way for all types of infections. Even though most people know to wash their hands after using the toilet.
Researchers found 83 percent of virus was on the surface of bathroom, living room and kitchen. Another study found that at homes where salmonella(沙门氏菌) cases had been found, the bacteria remained there for three weeks. That’s why people should pay attention to cleaning such surfaces regularly and always wash hands after touching them. In one study, a volunteer touched a door handle that had been with a virus. He then shook hands with other volunteers, and further tests showed he had spread the virus to six people.
The study authors note that time of hand-washing is the key. It’s obvious to wash hands after using the toilet,before eating or handling food. Other important times for hand-washing are after cleaning up a pet, or after touching garbage cans, cleaning clothes, dish rags that may have come into contact with raw food.
It may be hard to believe that something as simple as regular hand-washing can make a difference in your family’s health, considering what happened in Hong Kong during the 2003 outbreak of SARS, a severe kind of disease. The outbreak caused the public pay more attention to their basic hygiene(卫生) habits, including regular hand-washing. Not only was the SARS stopped, but other cases of illnesses, including the flu, stopped.

（22-23七年级下·江苏南京·阶段练习）Jed couldn’t keep the tears running down his face. His friend, Rob, wanted to help, but the more he talked about it, the worse Jed felt.
“I know how terrible you must feel,” Rob said. “Everyone on the team thought the coach would choose you. He must be crazy to let Tom swim the breaststroke ( 蛙泳) ！”
When the coach told him about the date and place of the state swimming meeting for boys of 15 and under, Jed was sure he would be swimming the breaststroke. He even told his family that the team couldn't win the event without him. When the coach chose Tom Timmons, the new boy from Spring-field, to swim the breaststroke, Jed could hardly believe it. Coach Robertson told Jed he could swim on the relay team, but that offered little consolation.
“I may leave the team ” he told Rob. “I’d rather not swim at all than be on the relay team.”
“I don’ t know whether you should do that or not,” Rob said. “We need you on the relay team. Of course, if you say you won’t swim at all, the coach may change his mind and let you swim the breaststroke.”
Jed left Rob and headed towards home. He knew it would be embarrassing to have to tell his family and his friends that someone else would take his place. He wondered if he should make up a story and tell his mom and dad that he asked the coach to put the new boy in. Jed didn’t know what to do.

（22-23七年级下·江苏南京·阶段练习）How many stars can you see in the night sky If the answers are “just a few” or “none”, you might be living with light pollution.
Light pollution happens when too much man-made light harms nature and people. Scientists have found that it is especially harmful to nocturnal（夜间的）animals.
Nocturnal animals sleep in the day and are busy at night. Animal scientist Christopher Kyba said man-made light is “the biggest change” humans have brought to these animals.
Small animals use darkness to hide from predators（捕食者）. But, he said, cloudy skies near cities are now “hundreds of times” brighter at night. This means that, for example, cats can catch more rats. Then, there will be too many cats and not enough rats to feed them all.
Baby sea turtles are born on beaches in the nighttime. They find the water by the light of the ocean horizon（地平线）. Man-made lights lead them away from the ocean. In Florida alone, “a large quantity of baby sea turtles die in this way every year,” said the US-based International Dark-Sky Association.
Also, birds that travel or hunt at night need moonlight and starlight. Man-made light can lead them in the wrong direction. Every year, a large number of birds die by flying into brightly-lit buildings.
28．Where does light pollution come from
A．Stars in the night sky. B．Artificial lights. C．Nature. D．Nocturnal animals.
29．According to Paragraph 4, as the night becomes brighter, ________.
A．more animals come out for food B．animals need more food
C．it’s easier for predators to catch small animals D．small animals can hide more easily
30．Why do many baby sea turtles die in Florida every year
A．Because birds eat them. B．Because they are born in the nighttime.
C．Because they can’t find the water. D．Because there is not enough food to eat.
31．What do the last two paragraphs show
A．Many animals die in the ocean every year.
B．Moonlight has caused many animals to die.
C．Man-made lights can help nocturnal animals see better at night.
D．Animals can lose their way because of man-made lights.
32．What is the story mainly about
A．The harm light pollution brings to animals.
B．The living conditions of nocturnal animals.
C．The changes light pollution brings to people.
D．The reasons why the number of animals is dropping.

（22-23七年级下·江苏南京·阶段练习）There are two kinds of animals in the world. There are animals that eat plants. We call these “herbivores”. There are also animals that eat meat. We call these “carnivores”.
But plants are usually the same. They make their own food using energy（能量）from the sun, don’t they
Well, most plants do make their own food. But some plants get their nutrients（营养）in other ways. The Venus flytrap is a good example（例子）of this: It makes its food using energy from the sun. But, as it lives in damp soil, there is not enough nutrients here to help the plant grow. So the Venus flytrap gets its nutrients by eating insects.
Each leaf of the Venus flytrap has two parts, joined at the back. There are hairs along（沿着）the sides of the leaf. When an insect lands on the leaf, the plant feels it and closes fast. It joins its hairs together to hold the insect. The Venus flytrap kills the insect and then eats it. The leaves open up to wait for the next insect.

（22-23七年级下·江苏南京·阶段练习）In December 2022, people in Shenzhen found that water ran more slowly from their taps. The government said the city was facing its most serious water shortage ever.
Some other cities in the southern part of China, like Chengdu and Guangzhou, are also becoming “thirsty”, The Paper pared (相比) with northern areas, southern areas have more rain and are close to more rivers and lakes. So why are they still short on water
In big cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou, populations are growing fast. As a result, people and factories need more and more water. Each person in Shenzhen has less than 200 cubic meters of water each year. It’s l/12 of the country’s average. According to the United Nations, it is an “absolute water shortage” (极度缺水) when the number is below 500 cubic meters.
Climate change is making the water problem worse. For example, most cities in Guangdong depend on the Dongjiang River as their main source (来源) of water. In 2022, the river was reported to be drying up. Because of climate change, there’s also less snow in the mountains of Tibet. The snow has long been the source of water for many areas in China. Those mountains might provide less water in the future.
There are other reasons for water shortages. For example, water pollution makes it harder to get clean drinking water. Factories and farms don’t use water efficiently (有效地). Some cities have enough rainfall, but don’t have big lakes or reservoirs (水库) to store water. The water just goes into the sea.
65．Where is this text most probably from
A．A newspaper. B．A textbook. C．A tour book. D．A school website.
66．How much water does an average Chinese person use according to the text
A．200 cubic meters. B．500 cubic meters. C．1200 cubic meters. D．2400 cubic meters.
67．Why is there less water in China’s rivers according to Paragraph 4
A．People are using up the water in these rivers.
B．The rivers flow through many areas with less rain.
C．Mountains in Tibet have less snow.
D．Most water goes to the sea before people can get it.
68．Which is NOT a reason for the water shortage mentioned in the last paragraph
A．Water pollution. B．Wasting water. C．Lack of storing place. D．Climate change.
69．What is the author’s attitude to the shortage of water
A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Neutral (中立的). D．Worried.

People usually think that cats are not very friendly. Unlike dogs, cats play with people less than dogs. They like to stay alone for hours. However, a new study shows that cats like people just as much as dogs.
Scientists at Oregon State University, the US, studied cats’ relationships (关系) with their owners. They invited 117 cat owners to take a test. In the six-minute test, cat owners walked into a new room with their pets. After two minutes, the owners left the room, leaving the cats alone. When the owners came back two minutes later, the scientists looked at what the cats would do. About two-thirds of the cats came to greet their owners right away when they came back. The cats then went back to looking around the room, but still came back to their owners now and then.
“These cats,” the scientists said, “saw their owners as a source of security (安全的来源) in a new place.” In the same test, 58% of dogs acted just like the cats. “This idea that cats like to stay alone or don’t really care about people isn’t holding up,” said Kristyn Vitale, a scientist who worked on the study. “The more we find out about cats, the more we see that they’re social animals.”
94．People usually think that cats ________.
A．are more friendly than dogs

Rowing is a good sport for people. The sport is not so commonly played in China, but almost half of all American high schools have rowing teams. Recently, the school where I study had a rowing season that gave me many great experiences.
During the season, we practiced rowing a lot. We got up at six every Saturday morning and practiced for three hours out on the river. Each one of us had an oar（浆）, and we each rowed one oar with both hands. Together we pulled the oars, and the oars pushed the water back so the boat would move forward. After three hours of practice, we often felt very tired, because rowing is a very physical sport. When you row, you do a lot of work with your thighs and back.
Though the practices were very hard, I chose to do them because I like the joy hard work brings. At every practice, I always did my best. Even when the coaches were not there, I kept rowing hard with my hands because I wanted to find out how well I could do. In order to move the boat fast, everyone on the team must keep the same pace (速度), so we needed to work together.
The hard work I did during the rowing helped me develop my teamwork qualities. The experience also taught me that if you want to get something, you need to pay something first. As Americans like to say, “No pains no gains!”
