阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
The earliest form of writing appeared about 5, 500 years ago. In the past, hand writing was an important subject in school. Now, many students sometimes do homework on a computer and turn in their tasks online.
Many people think typing (打字) is quick and easy to read, while writing by hand may take longer than typing. But others say writing with a pen and paper is more valuable. Writing by hand has big advantages. Research shows that when we write down ideas with a pen or pencil, we make the brain active to help us learn, remember and think. Writing by hand lets people show their creativity. No two people have the same handwriting. Writing by hand can also help people concentrate. When using a computer, people can go online or play computer games easily.
Handwriting may be pretty, however, people can get their ideas and thoughts down more quickly when they type. Typing can also make it easier for people to change. Once something is written by hand, you can’t delete it. If you want to make a change, you have to write it all over again. What’s more, some people’s handwriting may be hard to read. Typing makes everything clear, and no one will have to worry about their words being clear enough.

To respect your decisions is a simple and powerful quality of a person but it’s seldom used. Few people fully respect all his or her decisions, making decisions without really considering whether those decisions are really needed, whether they are correct, or even whether they are possible to complete. Imagine how you will feel if you are able to respect your decisions. You will be determined (坚定的), more creative, more satisfied, and so on.
Although many methods could be written about how to respect your decisions and carry them out, the simplest way to start is by deciding to decide and deciding to respect the decisions yon make! Yes, it’s as simple as that.
Before making a decision, it is a good idea to notice how you feel about what you are considering. Do you feel easy and relaxed about what you are thinking to do If you decide to do something that doesn’t agree with your inner feelings, you will certainly find it difficult to complete the task that you’ve decided to do. In fact you may not even start it! By making sure that the decision agrees with your values first, you should have no difficulties carrying it out.
Respecting your decisions is respecting yourself. If you seldom do what you say, then other people will not trust you, nor will you trust yourself. Very quickly these make you tired, slow and lazy. At this point nearly everything seems like hand work.
To respect your decisions is a great quality to have. By giving importance to your time and energy, you will be able to make wise decisions. You will be known as someone who does what they say they will do. You will be highly respected. You will have a powerful and clear mind. You’ll have one of the greatest attributes (特质) needed for success.
46. What will you be like if you respect your own decisions according to Paragraph 1
________________________________________________
47. What should you do before making a decision according to Paragraph 3
________________________________________________
48. Why do others no longer trust you according to Paragraph 4
________________________________________________
49. How could you make wise decisions according to the last paragraph

阅读下面短文，完成相关任务。
It was early winter several years ago. I had pulled out my old winter coat for another year’s use. It was still in pretty good shape after so many winters’ wear. I didn’t really need a new one but I wanted one and casually (不经意地) mentioned it to my daughter one day. She is such a sweet, loving soul that I should have guessed what would happen next. A few weeks later she gave me a gift of a bright red, brand new, winter’s coat.
I put the old one in my closet (壁橱) and started to wear the new coat every day. Each day, though, when I opened my closet something upset me. It seemed a shame that my still good, old coat should just sit there keeping no one warm during the cold, winter days. After a few weeks I took it out and drove to a local charity (慈善机构). I knew that there someone who couldn’t afford a coat might get my old one. I dropped it off and walked out the door. Then I saw a shivering (瑟瑟发抖的) man in only a thin jacket walking in. I wondered if he would end up in my old coat. Then I smiled and went home with a warm heart.
My new coat is old now. It is in too bad of shape to even give away to charity. I wonder if I should buy a new one soon but I think I will wait a while. I don’t really need a new one and maybe I can find a few more things to give to the charity instead.
Perhaps the best way to deal with our wants is to give. Love, after all, brings us the most joy. And the more of it you give away, the more of it you have. May all of your days be full of Warmth! May all of your days be full of Giving! May all of your days be full of Love!

Five rules for a healthy life
Thanks to better health care, most people are living healthier and longer lives. It’s even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthdays. Here are five rules for a healthy life.
1. Get off the sofa!
Sure, it’s comfortable to sit on the sofa and watch TV. But doctors say you should get off the sofa. 要保持健康，你每天至少应走10000步。In the past, people’s jobs required more physical effort. They often had to walk for miles every day. When farmers were working, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: Do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past
2. Eat healthy food!
It’s important to eat food that is fresh and natural, for example, fruit and vegetables. Fast food is not healthy. You should only have it once in a while. Eating too much of the wrong food will harm your health.
3. Rest while you can!
When we were babies, we slept for much of the night. Teenagers do not need as much sleep as babies, but it’s important for you to get about eight hours’ sleep a night. At weekends, you’ve got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest too.
4. Don’t worry. Be happy!
Many people believe that happiness is important for our general health. Sometimes it is not easy to be a teenager because of the difficulties of school, exams or friendships. If you’re worried about something, talk to your parents or your teacher.
5. Say no to smoking!
Yes, you knew I was going to say this! It’s so important. Smoking is not cool. It is dangerous. It harms nearly every part of your body. Think about how your family and friends will feel, and think about what it will do to your health.
41. 将文中划线的汉语句子译成英语。

If you eat too much of the wrong food, your health will be harmed.

Artist shapes a bit of Chinese culture
Over the past three years, Kang Jian has created more than 400 dough sculptures (面塑) and become a city-inheritor (继承人) of the dough sculpture in Mohe, Heilongjiang province.
Kang has shown an interest in art, especially dough sculpture since he was a child. Every time his parents made dumplings, he would ask for a small piece of dough to make animals — a rabbit, a fish or a small. Those small dough animals brought him lots of good childhood memories. However, Kang didn’t learn art in college. His family was poor and his parents were not able to afford his art education. Kang left college in 2016 and worked in the Mohe Forestry Bureau.
Then in 2018, during a visit to a museum in Beijing, Kang learned something about dough sculpting. Then he had the idea of taking his childhood interest up. He visited some famous artists and learned to make dough sculptures from them. His skills were improved a lot.
As a fan of Chinese literature, Kang would like to make dough sculptures of Chitese heroes, such as Sun Wukong and Guan Yu. In April 2022, he even finished the dough sculptures of 108 heroes from the novel Outlaws of the Marah after 16 months of work.
When Kang is free, he is invited to give classes at schools to teach students to make dough sculptures. He is happy to have a chance to tell young people about dough sculptures and stories about Chinese folk heroes. He expects more young people to take up this traditional art form.

September is a big month for students in China since the new term begins from now on. In ancient China, the school entrance ceremony(入学典礼) was one of the most important ceremonies.
Children began school between the ages of 4—7 in ancient China. Since there was no certain time to begin a new term at that time, the most important thing for parents was to choose a lucky day for their children to enter school. Next, parents would prepare some school things for their children, including desks, chairs and four treasures of the study.
In ancient times, teachers were usually very knowledgeable local persons. Parents would prepare many gifts, and then write a letter of invitation to ask a knowledgeable man to be their children’s teacher.
On the day their children entered school, parents would take them to take part in the First Writing Ceremony. Before that, children would kowtow(叩头) to the statue of Confucius(孔子像) 9 times and then to their teacher 3 times to show their deep respect(尊敬). During the ceremony, the teacher would put a red point on the students’ forehead(前额) as it meant opening the wisdom eye. Children would also ring a certain bell to start a new term. After that, they could finally sit down in their seats and begin to study. The First Writing Ceremony was a very important ceremony for every student.
Every day, students would arrive at school earlier than their teacher, and kowtow to the statue of Confucius, and then go back to the seats. Usually the teacher would give every student a new name, which was used for future Imperial Examination(科举考试) .
Today, some schools are starting to hold an entrance ceremony like they did in ancient times. Students put on traditional costumes and bow to the statue of Confucius and their teachers. This means that from this moment, they take a step in the lifelong journey of learning.
36. At what age did children begin school in ancient China

37. List two things parents did for children to enter school in ancient China.

The Earth’s going on a trip once again! Whether you have watched The Wandering Earth (流浪地球) in 2019 or not, the name must be well-known to you. Since it was China’s first science fiction (科幻) film, the cinemas were soon so crowded when it was on. The Wandering Earth Ⅱ came out on the first day of the Lunar New Year in 2023. It has become the newest hit.
As a prequel (前篇) to The Wandering Earth in 2019, the new movie describes the fact that humans are in danger of dying out for some reasons. To survive, they make different plans. Finally, they decide to build tens of thousands of huge engines on the surface of the Earth. They plan to drive the Earth to the nearest solar system. The movie shows how humans fight against disasters (灾难). In order to save the Earth, a group of young people have to step forward to start a race against time for life and death.
“The creators of The Wandering Earth Ⅱ are very similar to the characters in the movie. Their great courage and creative spirit are the engine to push the ‘planet’ of science fiction into the future,” said Liu Cixin, writer of the story The Wandering Earth and the novel The Three-body Problem. “We all know that China’s science fiction still has a long way to go. Luckily, there are a group of people who are working very hard for it.”
From The Wandering Earth four years ago to this year’s prequel, director Guo Fan always hope people can remember the idea expressed in them. Because of the love for our homeland, we won’t escape from the Earth in a spaceship, but choose to wander with the planet at last.

A young man was on a train. As the train turned a corner, it slowed down and then a simple house appeared. The house looked so different from the grey building of the city that everybody on the train turned to look at it. Some passengers began to talk about it.
The young man was also interested in the house. He decided to get off at the next station and make his way to the house. The owner of the house said that he was trying to sell the house, but no one would buy it, as the noise of the trains passing nearby made it uncomfortable to live in.
The young man decided to buy the house at once for $30,000. He used it for advertising（做广告）, as the house faced the railway turning. The train had to slow down at the turning, giving the passengers plenty of time to look at the house.
The young man went to meet several businessmen and explained the advantages of placing advertisements on the side of the house. Finally, one businessman agreed to place some ads. The young man was paid $180,000 for three years of advertising.

[1] In recent years, plastic pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems around the world. Many countries have been looking for ways for a better future.

In many countries of the world people are saying, “We must do something about our rubbish. We don’t want our world to become one big landfill site （垃圾填埋场）.”
In Ireland the government were very worried about plastic bags so they decided to make people pay for them. Since 2002 Irish people have been paying for the bags they take home from the shops. Of course, they soon stopped buying new bags and started taking bags with them when shopping.
Some countries have made even bigger changes. In 2006, the people of Zanzibar decided to stop making plastic bags. They were worried the bags were killing fish and sea animals. They also said nobody could bring plastic bags into the country. Soon there were no plastic bags in the country.
One of the most exciting recycling ideas is Freecycle. It has grown around the world.
People join a Freecycle group because they are looking for things or have things that they want to give to other people. Perhaps they have a chair they do not need any more, or they want a camera. They leave a message on the Internet to tell people what they want or what they are going to give. Nobody buys or sells anything—people give things to other people who want them. It is a good idea because it recycles useful things.
Recycling is important and sometimes it is exciting too, but it is only one part of the answer. Using less and reusing are also important answers to the problem of rubbish.

People in the countryside are used to having unexpected visitors—wild animals like frogs and snakes. But what if the visitor is an elephant
Pu Cuifen, a villager from Yunnan Province, experienced that two years ago. “I’ve only seen elephants in a zoo before, not expecting a wild elephant would appear at my doorstep,” said Pu. The elephants were harmful to no one, but had corn and beans on the farm. The villagers lost up to(A)50,000 yuan. Earlier than that, villagers would drive away the elephants to protect their crops(庄稼), which made the animals angry and led to human injuries(伤害) or deaths.
Now the government has helped to pay the money for the crops damaged(破坏) by elephants. Such things will help protect the interests of farmers, and at the same time avoid the wild animals being hurt by humans. The government has also created “dining halls” for the wild elephants to grow their favorite food, such as elephant grass and bamboo. Villagers now simply leave the elephants alone. “Our corn might get damaged, but we treat them with care and accept them with love.” said Pu.
Yunnan Province is not the only example of protecting wild animals. In Tibet, Migmar used to be a hunter(猎人), but now has become a rescuer(营救者) at the wildlife rescue station of Qomolangma. He and his friends take turns to go around to check there’s no trouble or danger for wild animals every day. The wildlife rescue station was set up in (B) 2019. From then on, they have saved (C) 17 wild animals. During this period, they learned to bandage the animals and clean their wounds, and set them free into the wild when they got well again. “Animals don’t talk, but I can feel their trust. We have the responsibility to protect them,” said Migmar.
Examples of taking care of wild animals appear more around us. From damage to protection, people see more changing human-wildlife relations. Even the simplest change and action can make a difference to the world.
46. What does “that” refer to(指的是) in Paragraph Two
____________________________________________
47. Which sentence in the passage has the similar meaning to the following one
The elephants didn’t hurt anyone, but only ate some farm plants in the field.

48. Why did the government create “dining halls” for the wild elephants

49. How did Migmar and his friends save wild animals

It is Saturday, but I go to school as usual. I go to play football. I am in our school team and we are going to play against another school next week.
The practice starts at 10 a. m. We all arrive as early as we can so that we have time to warm up. We are training harder than usual because the other team beat us last year. This year we want to do better. It is more difficult to practise in winter because the days are short and the weather is cold, too. It gets dark earlier, so it is important not to be late for after-school practice.
Our coach is pleased because we are playing better as a team now. Last year we were sometimes careless when we passed the ball and we lost to the other team in the final match. What a pity! This year we are training more carefully. That means we have a better chance of winning.
The fan club has fewer people this year. We hope to play well so that we have more fans to watch the matches. It is good to have our fans around. They cheer us on loudly and we feel more confident (自信的) to win the game.

What’s the end of the world for a chocolate lover Somewhere with no chocolates! Experts said the world would run out of chocolate within 40 years. It is because global warming (全球变暖) is bad for cacao (可可) trees.
The trees can only grow within 20 degrees north and south of the equator. Besides they like rich rain. However, the warming weather can make the air dryer. It also makes the land less fit for growing cacao. It could also make tree illnesses spread faster.
Although warming weather is making trouble for cacao planting, we’ll still have it in the near future. The world is trying to do what it can to save chocolate. Scientists are working to make the cacao plants strong against illnesses by using gene editing (基因编辑) to change the DNA of cacao.
Another way to save chocolate is the Brazilian (巴西的) growing method. It lets cacao grow without changing its genes. This method plants more rainforest trees to provide cacao trees with shade (阴凉). It can cool the cacao down and keep the land soil (土壤) wet.
36. The reason why the world would run out of chocolate: ________
37. Two factors (因素) that are good for cacao trees to grow: ① ________ ② ____________
38. The bad results of warming weather for cocao trees: ① ________ ② ________ ③ ________
