Last Sunday, our school held a calligraphy competition in the lecture hall. All the students took part in it actively.
Competitors were divided into three groups according to their grades. They were required to copy a text of 100 words in 20 minutes. All of them wrote very carefully. Then the judges looked through these texts with great patience and fairness, and gave results on site. After that, we displayed the calligraphy and awarded the winners. All the teachers and students praised them.
This activity is of great importance. Not only does the competition promote our traditional culture but also arouse the students’ interest in practicing Chinese calligraphy.阿克苏市实验中学2023-2024学年高一上学期期末考试

I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3. Before I made that decision, I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didn’t know that only kids want to show themselves as adults. I didn’t listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.
At the turning point of my life, my Mom wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down, but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldn’t refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard.
Mom smiled and asked again: “I asked: what do you WANT to do ” I never seriously thought about the question. So, I kept silent. “Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society ” she went on, “it is your own decision. Your life should be decided by you, not by anyone else, including me.” After saying that, she had tears in her eyes. For the first time in my life, I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself, my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.
It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my life—I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard.
The path to my future became clear to me. I didn’t act rebelliously (叛逆地) any more. With passion in my heart, I studied hard. Now, I’m one of the best students in the class. Thanks to that decision, I have become what I am today.

C．She had a big fight with the boy.
D．She told the boy to study hard.
6．Which of the following is right
A．The boy’s grades were good before he made the decision.
B．The boy’s mother made a decision for the boy.
C．He wanted to make a difference in the world.
D．The boy’s mother forced him to study hard.
7．What does the passage talk about
A．An important decision by myself.
B．The changes of my grades.
C．My Mom helped me a lot in my life.
D．The high school entrance exam.

Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Men have been polluting the earth. Many years ago, the pollution was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, men moved to another place.
Air pollution is now the most serious. Air makes people sick. And lots of people now are trying to use something to clear the air. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us become angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight air pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.
Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
Although most of the pollution is caused by us, we are the ones who can change the situation. The earth is our home. We must take care of it. And we must pay more attention to the information in pollution at the same time.
8. Why was the pollution in the past less serious
A. Because life in the past was easier.
B. Because there were not so many people.
C. Because men stayed in one place.
D. Because people used less coal to make fire.
9. According to the passage, which kind of pollution is the most severe
A. Air pollution. B. Noise pollution.
C. Light pollution. D. Water pollution.
10. What do many countries do to fight air pollution
A. Try to use something to clear the air
B. Ask people to use public transport more.
C. Stop putting dirty smoke into the air.
D. Encourage people to move to another place
11. What is probably the purpose of this passage
A .To prove life is much easier today.
B. To introduce how to fight air pollution.
C. To show the danger of pollution.
D.To call on us to take care of our earth.

I’m often asked how to study English effectively. I think this means getting the most out of your study time, and that means variety. 16
Study Every Day.
It’s important to study English every day. However, don’t exaggerate (夸张)! 17 This habit of studying English every day will help keep English in your brain fresh.
A Little Grammar, a Little Listening and a Little Reading.
Make sure that you study a number of areas rather than focusing on just one. Study a little grammar, then do a short listening exercise, and then read an article on the same topic. Don’t do too much; twenty minutes on three different types of exercises is plenty!
18
Give yourself one grammar goal when reading a new article or watching a new video. For example, try to write down each example of a form you are studying such as the present tense. Use colored pens to highlight forms that you are studying.
Use Different Learning Methods.
Don’t just use one way to study English. 19 For example, if you are learning new vocabulary, you can create a word map, describe a picture, make a list...All of these methods together help with your learning.
Find Some Friends.
20 And, as you study English together, help each other with exercises you may not understand.
Forget Grammar.
Study Grammar as You Watch or Read.
You can practice the exercises together and have conversations together in English.
Here are some basic ways to help you as you study English.
Study for thirty minutes every day instead of two hours once a week.
It is a good way to help you make good use of your study time.
Use many kinds of methods which will make all the parts of your brain help you.
