It’s natural to feel upset, angry, or sad about losing. No one likes to lose. 11 yourself is a good way when you’re angry about losing. It can help you to take some deep breaths, do an activity that 12 you, and let out your anger energy by jumping or dancing.
Once you’re calmer, it may help to think about why you felt the loss so deeply. One reason may be that you 13 wanted to win. That’s good! It likely makes you try hard. But the old saying “Winning isn’t everything.” is 14 . Try understanding success means that you have given it your all. And if you can take away something good from the game, that’s a big 15 .
Sometimes, we can feel a deep loss 16 we’re afraid to let someone down. Thinking “I’m good if I win; I’m bad if I don’t” can make you upset. After all, no one 17 all the time. And winning doesn’t mean that you’re a 18 person, a team player, or even someone who works hard.
The effort (努力) you put 19 and how you deal with a loss show more about your character than a win does. People pay attention to good 20 —and be thankful for it more than you think. So work at being the best that you can. Play, try hard, have fun, make mistakes and learn from them!

I don’t remember my camping experience with my family as a kid. But I do remember my first camping trip as an adult. It was terrible. Ten years passed, I learned many lessons the hard way. Now I am an experienced camper. I want to share my experiences with beginners.
For beginner campers, choosing a popular camping place which is close to home is the most important thing. And it’s better to choose a camping place with bathrooms. And you will feel more comfortable when you set up your tent near other campers. What’s more, if there is an information center, it will be more convenient.
When you consider what to wear, you need to check the weather and the season. You also need to think about how long you will be camping and what you plan to do, such as going boating or hiking.
It’s always smart to take several clothes, especially when camping in the mountains. The temperatures there can change a lot.
About what to eat, though I have many tools for cooking, most of the time, I do everything possible to get away from cooking while camping. I always pack foods that are ready-to-eat or foods that I can prepare at home to take with me. That means less time cooking and I can pack fewer things and do not have as much to clean up.
To stop unwanted terrible situations from happening, like wildfires and bear attacks (攻击), what should we keep in mind
31．How does the writer start the text
A．By giving advice. B．By giving examples.
C．By listing numbers. D．By asking questions.
32．When choosing a camping place, beginners should pay more attention to _________.
A．the location B．the environment
C．the food and tent D．the information center
33．In paragraph 3, the writer’s advice is about _________.
A．when to camp B．what to do there
C．how to get there D．how to choose clothes
34．What might the writer talk about next 　 　.
A．Types of camping. B．Things for packing.
C．Rules for camping safely. D．Ways of keeping warm.
35．What’s the right structure of the text （①＝paragraph 1）
A． B． C． D．
D
We are told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and are given lunch breaks at school. However, is this the healthiest way to eat Should we eat three meals a day Before considering how often we should eat, scientists advise us to consider when we shouldn’t.
Intermittent fasting (间歇性断食), where you stop eating food for many hours, has become a popular area of research. It allows our stomach to rest. It helps our body to clear broken proteins (蛋白质), which protects us against many diseases.
But if intermittent fasting is a healthy way to eat, how many meals does this leave room for Some experts argue that it is best to have one meal a day. David Levitsky, professor at Cornell University, does this himself. Wouldn’t one meal a day leave us feeling hungry Not always, because hunger is often a feeling. “When the clock says 12p. m., we may get feelings to eat, but before we had fridges and supermarkets, we ate when there was food.”
Another expert, Manoogan, doesn’t agree with it. He says it can make our blood glucose (血糖) go up. To keep our blood glucose low, we need to eat regularly. Two or three meals a day is the best. And we should eat most of our food earlier in the day. “Then our bodies can use the energy from our food all day, instead of saving it as fat (脂肪).”
Even if intermittent fasting is the healthiest way to eat, it may not be a good idea for everyone. If you want to try it, remember to check with your doctor first.
36．How does the writer introduce the topic
A．By telling a story. B．By asking questions.
C．By using a saying. D．By making a comparison.
37．Which benefits can intermittent fasting bring
①Fixing broken proteins. ②Allowing the stomach to rest.
③Helping scientists do research. ④Keeping us safe from some illness.
A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①②④ D．①③④
38．Why does Levitsky say that one meal a day might not leave us feeling hungry
A．Because our bodies can save food as fat.
B．Because we have fridges and supermarkets.
C．Because we can choose to eat whenever we want.
D．Because we often eat out of habit, not true hunger.
39．What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A．One meal a day. B．Three meals a day.
C．Intermittent fasting. D．Eating much at night.
40．What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph
A．We can’t do anything until we know more.
B．Doctors suggest we try intermittent fasting.
C．Intermittent fasting doesn’t work for everyone.
D．Seeing the doctor is the best way to become healthy.

句意：我妈妈去日本很多次，且她喜欢日本食物。由many times可知此处表示“已经去过”，要用现在完成时。主语是My mother，所以是has been。故填has been。
51．counting down
【详解】对比所给中英文可知，设空处为“倒数”；count down“倒计时”，固定词组；根据题干及空前的“are”可知，此处应用现在分词形式，构成现在完成时。故填counting down。
52．in Germany
【详解】分析句子可知，空格处需要翻译的是“在德国”，在德国：in Germany，国家前用介词in。故填in Germany。
53．we were proud of ourselves/we took pride in ourselves
【详解】对比所给中英文可知，设空处为“我们为自己感到骄傲”；we“我们”；be proud of…/take pride in…“对……感到骄傲”，固定词组，此处表示过去发生的事情，时态为一般过去时，主语为“we”，所以be动词应用were；ourselves“我们自己”。故填we were proud of ourselves/we took pride in ourselves。
54．doesn’t smell fresh
【详解】根据中英文对照可知，句子缺少“闻起来不新鲜”，句子为否定句。smell fresh“闻起来新鲜”，smell闻起来，系动词用法，后接形容词fresh新鲜的，作表语。否定形式借助于助动词do，根据“This fish”可知，助动词用第三人称单数形式does，否定形式为doesn’t。故填doesn’t; smell; fresh。
55．It is important for/It’s important for

66．例文
Family is the source of happiness and the harbor of warmth. To me, a happy family means mutual respect, understanding, and support among all members. One meaningful event in my family was when we all worked together to prepare a surprise birthday party for my grandmother. Everyone had a role to play, and the joy on her face was priceless.
To promote family harmony and happiness, I have a few suggestions. First, spend quality time together, such as having meals or playing games. Second, communicate openly and honestly to understand each other’s feelings and needs. Lastly, show appreciation and gratitude for each other’s efforts and contributions. By following these steps, we can create a loving and supportive family environment.
