One day, Molly the milkmaid, had filled her pails with milk. Her job was to milk the cows, and then bring the milk to the market to sell. Molly loved to think about what to spend her money on.
As she filled the pails with milk and went to the market, she again thought of all the things she wanted to buy. As she walked along the road, she thought of buying a basket full of fresh strawberries.
A little farther down the road, she found a chicken. She thought, “With the money I get from today. I’m going to buy a chicken of my own. That chicken will lay eggs, then I will sell milk and eggs and get more money!”
She continued, “With more money, I will buy a beautiful dress and make all the other milkmaids jealous (嫉妒的).” Out of excitement, Molly started skipping, forgetting about the milk in her pails. Soon, the milk started spilling over the edges, covering Molly.
Totally wet, Molly said to herself regretfully, “Oh no! I will never have enough money to buy a chicken now.” She went home with her empty pails.
“Oh, my goodness! What happened to you ” Molly’s mother asked.
“I was too busy dreaming about all the things I wanted to buy that I forgot about the pails,” she answered.

With the development of technology, smartphones are widely used in our life. As a result, people pay less attention to their handwriting, which has become a dying art. Some people argue that grading (打分) students’ handwriting is helpful. Others, however, say it is something to be admired but not given grades. Handwriting helps to improve the brain, but it’s not worth grading.
YES—grades make you work harder
Handwriting is important for students, both in their schoolwork and their daily life. So kids should be prepared. Also, studies have shown that writing by hand is better for the brain and helps people understand and memorize materials better. It requires them to focus on spelling and grammar because they can’t use spell-check. What’s more, if students are being graded on their handwriting, they’ll take this skill seriously. Even if they have poor handwriting at first, it can be improved with practice. Grading will only drive them to do better and feel proud of their progress.
NO—it’s a waste of time
Students shouldn’t be graded on handwriting because the content (内容) is more important, not what it looks like. We can learn from history that handwriting can’t always tell the potential (潜能). Scientist Albert Einstein and artist Pablo Picasso had great achievements, but look at their handwriting! Since students have already been under too much pressure, why give them one more thing to worry about Besides, grading people’s handwriting would be unfair to students with physical problems. And it’s hard to grade fairly because no two people write the same way.
36．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refers (指) to _____________.
A．technology B．handwriting C．the grade D．the brain
37．There are advantages of grading handwriting except ______________.
A．paying attention to spelling B．reducing grammar mistakes
C．making the content better D．driving students to write better
38．We can know that Einstein and Picasso might have _________ handwriting.
A．clear B．poor C．pretty D．normal
39．What can we learn from Paragraph 3
A．People hardly write in similar ways.
B．The idea is less important than handwriting.
C．It is easy to give points to people's handwriting.
D．Students with physical problems are graded fairly.
40．What can be the best title for the passage
A．Handwriting is a Waste of Time B．Handwriting Makes You Work Harder
C．Should Handwriting be Graded D．How to Improve Students' Handwriting
D
Are you a procrastinator (拖延者) Are you putting off going to the gym Have you seldom cleaned your rooms in time Are you waiting just one more day to study for that test Procrastination is putting off to later what you know you should be doing now. But all those tasks you push to tomorrow can make their way into your mind. And that could harm your health.
In one study, scientists connected procrastination to many problems. These included depression (沮丧), nervousness and even arm pain. “I was surprised when I saw that one,” says Fred Johansson. The psychologist (心理学家) and his team reported the results in a newspaper.
The study is one of the largest so far to deal with procrastination’s ties to health. For years, scientists didn’t seem to view procrastination as something serious. This new study could change that.
The study followed about 2,500 students over nine months. They found that procrastinators perform worse over time than those who did things without delay (延迟). For instance, they were more worried, depressed and sleep-deprived (睡眠不足的).
From this type of study, the team can’t say for sure that putting things off causes poor health. But results from other research teams seem to point in the same direction. One 2021 study tied procrastinating at bedtime to depression. And a 2015 study connected procrastinating to poor heart health. According to Fuschia Sirois, a scientist at Durham University in England, the harmful effects of procrastination could build up over time. Procrastination alone may not cause disease, however it could be “one factor that can tip the scales (扭转局势).”
41．How did the writer lead to the topic
A．By comparing facts. B．By telling stories.
C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples.
42．The underlined word “These” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.
A．procrastinators B．tasks C．scientists D．problems
43．How many students took part in the study of Fred Johansson
A．2500. B．2015. C．2000. D．1500.
44．What is the same conclusion of studies in 2021 and 2015
A．Delaying makes poor heart health.
B．Procrastination is a kind of disease.
C．Delaying at bedtime makes depression.
D．Procrastination leads to many problems.
45．What is the writer’s purpose in writing this text
A．To make the readers know about the procrastinators.
B．To advise the readers to keep away from procrastination.
C．To tell about the different result of studies.
D．To show the reasons for procrastination.

32．细节理解题。根据“As she walked along the road, she thought of buying a basket full of fresh strawberries.”可知，起初她想买一篮子草莓，故选C。
33．细节理解题。根据“Out of excitement, Molly started skipping, forgetting about the milk in her pails. Soon, the milk started spilling over the edges, covering Molly. Totally wet, Molly said to herself regretfully”可知，在牛奶洒出来之前她很兴奋，故选A。
34．推理判断题。根据“She went home with her empty pails”可知，牛奶洒了，她提着空桶回家了，所以推断，应是什么也没买到，故选D。
35．主旨大意题。根据“How many times do I need to say, ‘Don’t count your chickens until they hatch (孵化) ’ ”及Molly在还未卖出牛奶的情况下就专注于拿到钱后要买什么东西，以至于最后什么也没得到可知，本文是为了告诉我们：我们必须关注今天的工作，而不是未来的梦想。故选B。

【导语】本文主要讲述了创作漫画的邱锦鹏走红的故事。
56．句意：受她的影响，这个男人忍不住模仿她的动作，看起来像个孩子一样快乐。本句的主语和宾语不是同一人称，by是介词，所以空处应填she的宾格形式her，故填her。
57．句意：大多数人只是为了好玩而观看视频，而邱锦鹏则用画笔记录下了这一感人时刻。空处作定语修饰名词movement，所以用touch的形容词touching“感人的”，故填touching。
58．句意：邱于2022年9月开始创作这类作品。根据“September 2022”可知，空处用时间介词in，故填in。

62．句意：但是他毕业后没有成为画家。空前“Qiu studied oil painting in college”与空后“he didn’t become a painter after graduating”在句意上是转折关系，所以用but连接，句首单词首字母大写，故填But。
63．句意：我开了一家餐馆，几乎两年没有画画。此处指“一家餐馆”，且restaurant首字母发辅音音素，所以用不定冠词a修饰，故填a。
64．句意：他对我画的画很惊讶，并鼓励我继续画下去。根据“ by the painting that I painted ”可知，此处用被动语态，且时态是一般过去时，所以此处用一般过去时的被动语态，结构是：was/were done，主语是he，be动词用was，后跟过去分词amazed，故填was amazed。
65．句意：他的画因为转瞬即逝的快乐而广受喜爱。空处修饰动词liked，所以用wide的副词形式widely。故填widely。
66．One possible version:
Learn to Smile
Though many words are encouraging, what I would like to say to myself is “learn to smile”.
As the saying goes, attitude decides everything. Since smiling is a positive attitude, I often smile to myself to become confident and happy. In my daily life, there may be something unpleasant. For example, I don’t do well in all the subjects, or I’m misunderstood by friends. Then I say to myself, “Learn to smile.” Smiling to myself can really bring confidence back to me and beat the unhappy feelings.
In a word, smiling is a language which can make me understood by others. I believe the more I smile, the happier life I will live.

One day, Molly the milkmaid, had filled her pails with milk. Her job was to milk the cows, and then bring the milk to the market to sell. Molly loved to think about what to spend her money on.
As she filled the pails with milk and went to the market, she again thought of all the things she wanted to buy. As she walked along the road, she thought of buying a basket full of fresh strawberries.
A little farther down the road, she found a chicken. She thought, “With the money I get from today. I’m going to buy a chicken of my own. That chicken will lay eggs, then I will sell milk and eggs and get more money!”
She continued, “With more money, I will buy a beautiful dress and make all the other milkmaids jealous (嫉妒的).” Out of excitement, Molly started skipping, forgetting about the milk in her pails. Soon, the milk started spilling over the edges, covering Molly.
Totally wet, Molly said to herself regretfully, “Oh no! I will never have enough money to buy a chicken now.” She went home with her empty pails.
“Oh, my goodness! What happened to you ” Molly’s mother asked.
“I was too busy dreaming about all the things I wanted to buy that I forgot about the pails,” she answered.
“Oh. Molly, my dear. How many times do I need to say, ‘Don’t count your chickens until they hatch (孵化) ”

With the development of technology, smartphones are widely used in our life. As a result, people pay less attention to their handwriting, which has become a dying art. Some people argue that grading (打分) students’ handwriting is helpful. Others, however, say it is something to be admired but not given grades. Handwriting helps to improve the brain, but it’s not worth grading.
YES—grades make you work harder
Handwriting is important for students, both in their schoolwork and their daily life. So kids should be prepared. Also, studies have shown that writing by hand is better for the brain and helps people understand and memorize materials better. It requires them to focus on spelling and grammar because they can’t use spell-check. What’s more, if students are being graded on their handwriting, they’ll take this skill seriously. Even if they have poor handwriting at first, it can be improved with practice. Grading will only drive them to do better and feel proud of their progress.
NO—it’s a waste of time
Students shouldn’t be graded on handwriting because the content (内容) is more important, not what it looks like. We can learn from history that handwriting can’t always tell the potential (潜能). Scientist Albert Einstein and artist Pablo Picasso had great achievements, but look at their handwriting! Since students have already been under too much pressure, why give them one more thing to worry about Besides, grading people’s handwriting would be unfair to students with physical problems. And it’s hard to grade fairly because no two people write the same way.
36．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refers (指) to _____________.
A．technology B．handwriting C．the grade D．the brain
37．There are advantages of grading handwriting except ______________.
A．paying attention to spelling B．reducing grammar mistakes
C．making the content better D．driving students to write better
38．We can know that Einstein and Picasso might have _________ handwriting.
A．clear B．poor C．pretty D．normal
39．What can we learn from Paragraph 3
A．People hardly write in similar ways.
B．The idea is less important than handwriting.
C．It is easy to give points to people's handwriting.
D．Students with physical problems are graded fairly.
40．What can be the best title for the passage
A．Handwriting is a Waste of Time B．Handwriting Makes You Work Harder
C．Should Handwriting be Graded D．How to Improve Students' Handwriting
D
Are you a procrastinator (拖延者) Are you putting off going to the gym Have you seldom cleaned your rooms in time Are you waiting just one more day to study for that test Procrastination is putting off to later what you know you should be doing now. But all those tasks you push to tomorrow can make their way into your mind. And that could harm your health.
In one study, scientists connected procrastination to many problems. These included depression (沮丧), nervousness and even arm pain. “I was surprised when I saw that one,” says Fred Johansson. The psychologist (心理学家) and his team reported the results in a newspaper.
The study is one of the largest so far to deal with procrastination’s ties to health. For years, scientists didn’t seem to view procrastination as something serious. This new study could change that.
The study followed about 2,500 students over nine months. They found that procrastinators perform worse over time than those who did things without delay (延迟). For instance, they were more worried, depressed and sleep-deprived (睡眠不足的).
From this type of study, the team can’t say for sure that putting things off causes poor health. But results from other research teams seem to point in the same direction. One 2021 study tied procrastinating at bedtime to depression. And a 2015 study connected procrastinating to poor heart health. According to Fuschia Sirois, a scientist at Durham University in England, the harmful effects of procrastination could build up over time. Procrastination alone may not cause disease, however it could be “one factor that can tip the scales (扭转局势).”
41．How did the writer lead to the topic
A．By comparing facts. B．By telling stories.
C．By asking questions. D．By giving examples.
42．The underlined word “These” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.
A．procrastinators B．tasks C．scientists D．problems
43．How many students took part in the study of Fred Johansson
A．2500. B．2015. C．2000. D．1500.
44．What is the same conclusion of studies in 2021 and 2015
A．Delaying makes poor heart health.
B．Procrastination is a kind of disease.
C．Delaying at bedtime makes depression.
D．Procrastination leads to many problems.
45．What is the writer’s purpose in writing this text
A．To make the readers know about the procrastinators.
B．To advise the readers to keep away from procrastination.
C．To tell about the different result of studies.
D．To show the reasons for procrastination.

Learn to Smile
Though many words are encouraging, what I would like to say to myself is “learn to smile”.
As the saying goes, attitude decides everything. Since smiling is a positive attitude, I often smile to myself to become confident and happy. In my daily life, there may be something unpleasant. For example, I don’t do well in all the subjects, or I’m misunderstood by friends. Then I say to myself, “Learn to smile.” Smiling to myself can really bring confidence back to me and beat the unhappy feelings.
In a word, smiling is a language which can make me understood by others. I believe the more I smile, the happier life I will live.
