One afternoon in 2022, something on the Internet caught my eye：a tiny hedgehog (刺猬) held by a big hand. The post read: “HELP! My hedgehog abandoned (抛弃) her two babies, and I cannot raise both of them because I have to go to school full time. Good home with experience needed as soon as possible!”
I had no experience with baby hedgehogs. I was an animal person through and through and had raised cats, dogs, birds, and guinea pigs. But this tiny animal was new to me, and it touched me that he was abandoned, that maybe I could love him and be the best mom for him.
I wrote the most heartfelt email I could. That was how I found my Louie. True to my word, he was my baby. Louie didn’t know he was a hedgehog. He never curled (蜷缩) into a ball, and he liked my two cats, no fear. The cats, however, were afraid of him, as he often moved into the room, running after the cats and blocking my way.
By the time he reached old age, Louie had only three feet. However, he still managed to climb the stairs to visit other animals. He helped me realize my dream of hedgehog photography, a hobby that began during childhood with cats and dollhouses. I love showing off his modeling.
Life has meaning because of the purpose we have. Louie needed a good home and mom, and in return, I got to be a good mother and be needed. Hedgehogs require great amounts of patience, trust, and knowledge—but the payoff (回报) is pretty great.
4. The author got Louie from .
A. a pet shop B. a family friend
C. a hedgehog owner D. a hedgehog rescue center
5. How did Louie seem to feel at the author’s home
A. Frightened. B. Relaxed. C. Lonely. D. Tired.
6. What can we learn about Louie from paragraph 4
A. He disliked climbing stairs. B. He enjoyed being left alone.
C He always refused to be in photos. D. He was active despite his difficulty in moving.
7. What does the author say about raising Louie
A. It was easier than expected. B. It gave her a sense of safety.
C. It made her lose her patience. D. It was satisfying and meaningful.
C
Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations.
Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter.
Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what It is a pair of gloves.
In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花).
In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.”
8. When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival
A. On the 22nd day of the first lunar month.
B. On the 15th day of the first solar month.
C. On the 22nd day of February every year.
D. On the 15th day of the first lunar month.
9. Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE

B. Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day.
C. People light lanterns to drive animals away.
D. People make wishes when releasing lights.
10. How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji
A. Sad. B. Scared. C. Romantic. D. Anxious.
11. What would be the best title for the text
A. The Origin of the Lantern Festival
B. River Lights on the Lantern Festival
C. Celebrations of the Lantern Festival
D. A day to Guess Lantern Riddles

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone (独立的) rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机) an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗 帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate (定位) a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
12. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
13. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room
A. Let down curtains for privacy.
B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Use a smartphone to book a room ahead of time.
D. Have a shower before exercise.
14. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms.
C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
I don’t actually remember the first postcard I ever received, or even the first time I sent one. ____16____ Or was it from my aunt who always seemed to be in faraway places I don’t know. But I do know there are enough reasons for sending a postcard.
Postcards don’t take up any space. You’re traveling around the green hills of Scotland or crossing Texas on a road trip and you don’t want to carry much, right ____17____ They’re light. They fit everywhere: between pages, in your camera bag, inside your computer case (箱), and so on.
Sometimes it’s the best way to keep in touch with (与……保持联系) family and friends. Sure, we’ve got things like WhatsApp, Facebook, and iMessage to stay in touch.

____19____ They help to create connections to places in a personal way. When you receive a postcard from a place you’ve never been — with a personal note from a friend… it’s hard not to want to share that same experience.
Most importantly, almost anything can be a postcard. No joke: ____20____ I was living in New England and wanted to show a friend back home what the autumn colors were like. So I found a red-orange leaf, and sent it off. I wasn’t sure it’d make it through the post, but it did!
A. Sending postcards is easy.
B. Postcards are small and easy to carry.
C. I once sent a nice autumn leaf as a postcard.
D. Was it from one of my father’s work trips
E. Postcards also encourage us to travel more.
F. Is it necessary to send postcards from your place
G. The power of the object is stronger and we remember it longer.

Ellie wanted to dress up as a princess that day. But you know how busy dads are and how they sometimes ____23____ the small important things while solving the ____24____ important things.
So when Ellie’s dad forgot to ____25____ for her princess clothes for the school party and she didn’t have money to buy it, she wasn’t ____26____. But she couldn’t keep her tears back when she saw other kids ____27____ different clothes.
“Ellie! Come here!” her favourite art teacher’s voice whispered to her. The girl wiped her tears, ____28____ following her favourite teacher. “Wait here!” Mr. Borges said and walked into the supply closet. A few seconds later, he was back, and Ellie couldn’t help but wonder why the man was holding a few rolls of ____29____ paper.
Ellie stood confusedly. At the same time, her teacher began _____30_____ the toilet paper around her waist (腰) and towards her feet carefully, making sure she was _____31_____ every few seconds. “Wow, Mr.

When Ellie saw herself in the mirror, she couldn’t stop jumping up and down with total _____34_____. “I love it! Mr. Borges. Thank you!”

To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what It is a pair of gloves.
In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花).
In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.”

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone (独立的) rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗 帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate (定位) a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
12. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
13. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room
A. Let down curtains for privacy.
B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Use a smartphone to book a room ahead of time.
D. Have a shower before exercise.
14. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms.
C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms.

【答案】1 One possible version:
One month ago, I couldn’t balance rest and study even though I knew that my schedule was not well-organized. As a result, I often felt tired, anxious and stressed. It made a bad difference to my physical and mental heath.
Then I read an article that made a difference to me. I tried to keep a balance between rest and study and things began to change. Rather than studying all the time, I began to spare some time to have a rest. Instead of doing my homework all the day, I went to play football for an hour a day. Rather than comparing myself with my classmates, I would stick to my own arrangements.
Now, I became refreshed and energetic. And I study more efficiently than before.
2 One possible version:
In the past, I used to feel tired, anxious and stressed at senior high school at first because I was too sleepy to focus on my study. It made a bad difference to my physical and mental heath.
Then, I read a book which changed my mind. Instead of worrying about my study, I would make a schedule for my study and finish the to-do list. Rather than being anxious the whole day, I would chat with my teachers.
Finally, I stopped feeling worried about my study. Instead, I would be more confident. By being positive about my study, I became happier and healthier.

One afternoon in 2022, something on the Internet caught my eye：a tiny hedgehog (刺猬) held by a big hand. The post read: “HELP! My hedgehog abandoned (抛弃) her two babies, and I cannot raise both of them because I have to go to school full time. Good home with experience needed as soon as possible!”
I had no experience with baby hedgehogs. I was an animal person through and through and had raised cats, dogs, birds, and guinea pigs. But this tiny animal was new to me, and it touched me that he was abandoned, that maybe I could love him and be the best mom for him.
I wrote the most heartfelt email I could. That was how I found my Louie. True to my word, he was my baby. Louie didn’t know he was a hedgehog. He never curled (蜷缩) into a ball, and he liked my two cats, no fear. The cats, however, were afraid of him, as he often moved into the room, running after the cats and blocking my way.
By the time he reached old age, Louie had only three feet. However, he still managed to climb the stairs to visit other animals. He helped me realize my dream of hedgehog photography, a hobby that began during childhood with cats and dollhouses. I love showing off his modeling.
Life has meaning because of the purpose we have. Louie needed a good home and mom, and in return, I got to be a good mother and be needed. Hedgehogs require great amounts of patience, trust, and knowledge—but the payoff (回报) is pretty great.
4. The author got Louie from .
A. a pet shop B. a family friend
C. a hedgehog owner D. a hedgehog rescue center
5. How did Louie seem to feel at the author’s home
A. Frightened. B. Relaxed. C. Lonely. D. Tired.
6. What can we learn about Louie from paragraph 4
A. He disliked climbing stairs. B. He enjoyed being left alone.
C He always refused to be in photos. D. He was active despite his difficulty in moving.
7. What does the author say about raising Louie
A. It was easier than expected. B. It gave her a sense of safety.
C. It made her lose her patience. D. It was satisfying and meaningful.
C

One afternoon in 2022, something on the Internet caught my eye：a tiny hedgehog (刺猬) held by a big hand. The post read: “HELP! My hedgehog abandoned (抛弃) her two babies, and I cannot raise both of them because I have to go to school full time. Good home with experience needed as soon as possible!”
I had no experience with baby hedgehogs. I was an animal person through and through and had raised cats, dogs, birds, and guinea pigs. But this tiny animal was new to me, and it touched me that he was abandoned, that maybe I could love him and be the best mom for him.
I wrote the most heartfelt email I could. That was how I found my Louie. True to my word, he was my baby. Louie didn’t know he was a hedgehog. He never curled (蜷缩) into a ball, and he liked my two cats, no fear. The cats, however, were afraid of him, as he often moved into the room, running after the cats and blocking my way.
By the time he reached old age, Louie had only three feet. However, he still managed to climb the stairs to visit other animals. He helped me realize my dream of hedgehog photography, a hobby that began during childhood with cats and dollhouses. I love showing off his modeling.
Life has meaning because of the purpose we have. Louie needed a good home and mom, and in return, I got to be a good mother and be needed. Hedgehogs require great amounts of patience, trust, and knowledge—but the payoff (回报) is pretty great.
4. The author got Louie from .
A. a pet shop B. a family friend
C. a hedgehog owner D. a hedgehog rescue center
5. How did Louie seem to feel at the author’s home
A. Frightened. B. Relaxed. C. Lonely. D. Tired.
6. What can we learn about Louie from paragraph 4
A. He disliked climbing stairs. B. He enjoyed being left alone.
C. He always refused to be in photos. D. He was active despite his difficulty in moving.
7. What does the author say about raising Louie
A. It was easier than expected. B. It gave her a sense of safety.
C. It made her lose her patience. D. It was satisfying and meaningful.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. D
C
Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations.
Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter.
Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what It is a pair of gloves.
In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花).
In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.”
8. When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival
A. On the 22nd day of the first lunar month.
B. On the 15th day of the first solar month.
C. On the 22nd day of February every year.
D. On the 15th day of the first lunar month.
9. Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE
A. People paste riddles to show off their knowledge.
B. Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day.
C. People light lanterns to drive animals away.
D. People make wishes when releasing lights.
10. How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji
A. Sad. B. Scared. C. Romantic. D. Anxious.
11. What would be the best title for the text
A. The Origin of the Lantern Festival
B. River Lights on the Lantern Festival
C. Celebrations of the Lantern Festival
D. A day to Guess Lantern Riddles

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone (独立的) rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗 帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate (定位) a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
12. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
13. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room
A. Let down curtains for privacy.
B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Use a smartphone to book a room ahead of time.
D. Have a shower before exercise.
14. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms.
C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B

I don’t actually remember the first postcard I ever received, or even the first time I sent one. ____16____ Or was it from my aunt who always seemed to be in faraway places I don’t know. But I do know there are enough reasons for sending a postcard.
Postcards don’t take up any space. You’re traveling around the green hills of Scotland or crossing Texas on a road trip and you don’t want to carry much, right ____17____ They’re light. They fit everywhere: between pages, in your camera bag, inside your computer case (箱), and so on.

____19____ They help to create connections to places in a personal way. When you receive a postcard from a place you’ve never been — with a personal note from a friend… it’s hard not to want to share that same experience.
Most importantly, almost anything can be a postcard. No joke: ____20____ I was living in New England and wanted to show a friend back home what the autumn colors were like. So I found a red-orange leaf, and sent it off. I wasn’t sure it’d make it through the post, but it did!
A. Sending postcards is easy.
B. Postcards are small and easy to carry.
C. I once sent a nice autumn leaf as a postcard.
D. Was it from one of my father’s work trips
E. Postcards also encourage us to travel more.

G. The power of the object is stronger and we remember it longer.

【答案】1 One possible version:
One month ago, I couldn’t balance rest and study even though I knew that my schedule was not well-organized. As a result, I often felt tired, anxious and stressed. It made a bad difference to my physical and mental heath.
Then I read an article that made a difference to me. I tried to keep a balance between rest and study and things began to change. Rather than studying all the time, I began to spare some time to have a rest. Instead of doing my homework all the day, I went to play football for an hour a day. Rather than comparing myself with my classmates, I would stick to my own arrangements.
Now, I became refreshed and energetic. And I study more efficiently than before.
2 One possible version:
In the past, I used to feel tired, anxious and stressed at senior high school at first because I was too sleepy to focus on my study. It made a bad difference to my physical and mental heath.
Then, I read a book which changed my mind. Instead of worrying about my study, I would make a schedule for my study and finish the to-do list. Rather than being anxious the whole day, I would chat with my teachers.
Finally, I stopped feeling worried about my study. Instead, I would be more confident. By being positive about my study, I became happier and healthier.
