(江苏连云港中考真题)
Hello from nature’s foodies
As a proud grizzly bear, I say hello from Alaska. We eat anything we can get our paws on. One of my favourite meals is catching fresh salmon. There’s nothing quite like the pleasure of a stomach full of fresh fish!
I’m a blue whale. I may eat up to 3.6 million krill (磷虾) per day! You may wonder why such huge animals live on such tiny food It’s because our mouths only have rows of baleen (鲸须). It lets water flow out while holding in tiny things.
I’m a hummingbird. We eat flower nectar (蜜). We fly around a few thousand flowers each day to get as much food as possible. As we move our wings really fast, we burn through energy fast. So we need to keep feeding.
Hello~from~a~sloth~in~the~South~America! Our favorite food Low-energy leaves! Do we eat a lot No. We slow-movers don’t need a lot of energy. Even our stomachs work so slowly that after a meal, we’re too tired to do anything but... sleep!
26. Why does a blue whale live on tiny living things
A. It is the largest sea animal. B. It is too slow to catch large fish.
C. It only has baleen instead of teeth. D. It likes a stomach full of tiny food.
27. What decide how much hummingbirds and sloths eat
A. Living places. B. Diet lists. C. Daily activities. D. Body sizes.
28. Which part of a magazine is the text probably from
A. Wildlife. B. Landscapes. C. Travelling. D. Photography.
【答案】26. C 27. C 28. A
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了不同动物的饮食习性。
26. C细节理解题。根据“You may wonder why such huge animals live on such tiny food It’s because our mouths only have rows of baleen (鲸须). It lets water flow out while holding in tiny things.”可知蓝鲸以磷虾等微小生物为食，是因为它们的嘴里只有鲸须，这种结构可以让水流出，同时保留微小的食物。故选C。
27. C推理判断题。根据“As we move our wings really fast, we burn through energy fast. So we need to keep feeding.”以及“No. We slow-movers don’t need a lot of energy”可知蜂鸟需要大量进食是因为它们的翅膀快速振动，消耗能量极快，需要不断补充能量，而树懒则因为活动缓慢，能量消耗低，所以不需要大量进食，这都与它们的日常活动密切相关。故选C。
28. A推理判断题。本文介绍了不同动物的饮食习性，故文章可能来自杂志的“野生动物”部分。故选A。

(江苏连云港中考真题)An hour before the show, the backstage (后台) was busy and noisy. Young male Peking Opera artists in their 20s were applying makeup, adjusting costumes, stretching, and clearing their throats. The air was filled with the sounds of traditional Chinese instruments.
“These young people started learning with me when they were just kids—now they’re adults, leading the shows themselves,” says Yang Shaochun, an 85-year-old Peking Opera master.
This weekend, four shows will be put on at Beijing People’s Theatre. Young wuxi artists will play the lead roles.
Wuxi, or martial (武术的) play, is the base of the fighting and movement part in Peking Opera. Wei Pengyu, a 29-year-old actor, was attracted to Peking Opera as a child—not by the music or stories at first, but by the colorful, amazing facial masks that brought the characters to life. At 14, he began training in Peking Opera, especially in wusheng—a male role type. “For me, stepping into the role of a hero is a dream come true,” he says.
“Playing wuxi isn’t just about action—it’s about expressing the character’s courage, justice (正义), loyalty and strength through movements,” says Xu Zhouyi, 25, another male actor.
Later that evening, a classic piece San Cha Kou was played by two young actors, Wu Zeyu and Shu Jiaxing. The viewers were attracted to the great scene and cheered for the actors’ excellent martial art movements.
Wu and Shu practiced together for nearly a year. “San Cha Kou is a test of trust between two actors. We have to read each other’s energy—know when one is speeding up or slowing down. Every movement must be perfectly counted to avoid real crashes while still looking dangerous,” says Wu.
33. What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph 1
A. Asking the master for help. B. Getting ready for the show.
C. Having a martial art lesson. D. Learning a new instrument.
34. Why does the writer mention Wei Pengyu and Xu Zhouyi
A. To share their life experiences. B. To compare their training results.
C. To show their understanding of wuxi. D. To express their love for facial masks.
35. What message can we learn from the successful show of San Cha Kou
A. Practice makes perfect. B. One is never too old to learn.
C. Great hopes make great man. D. Friends should be few but good.
36. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Wuxi movements impress viewers B. Young actors shine in Peking Opera
C. Wuxi actors celebrate after graduating D. A Peking Opera master opens a school
【答案】33. B 34. C 35. A 36. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了年轻的京剧演员们在舞台上的出色表现，以及他们对武戏的理解和努力。
33. B词句猜测题。根据“were applying makeup, adjusting costumes, stretching, and clearing their throats”可知20多岁的年轻男性京剧艺术家正在化妆、调整服装、伸展和清嗓子，这些都是演员们在后台为演出做准备的活动。故选B。
34. C推理判断题。根据“Wei Pengyu, a 29-year-old actor, was attracted to Peking Opera as a child—not by the music or stories at first, but by the colorful, amazing facial masks that brought the characters to life”以及“Playing wuxi isn’t just about action—it’s about expressing the character’s courage, justice (正义), loyalty and strength through movements”可知Wei Pengyu被脸谱吸引，而Xu Zhouyi强调通过动作表达角色的勇气、正义、忠诚和力量，所以文章提到Wei Pengyu和Xu Zhouyi，主要是为了展示他们对武戏的理解和体会。故选C。
35. A推理判断题。根据“Wu and Shu practiced together for nearly a year...We have to read each other’s energy—know when one is speeding up or slowing down. Every movement must be perfectly counted to avoid real crashes while still looking dangerous”可知Wu Zeyu和Shu Jiaxing为了表演《三岔口》练习了近一年，他们需要相互配合，精准控制每一个动作，以避免真实碰撞，同时看起来还要惊险，这体现了“熟能生巧”的道理。故选A。
36. B最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了年轻的京剧演员们在舞台上的出色表现，以及他们对武戏的理解和努力，以选项B“年轻演员在京剧中大放异彩”为标题最合适。故选B。

(江苏连云港中考真题)Saturn (土星) is famous for the beautiful rings around it. Now, it’s getting attention for being even more amazing. Scientists have discovered 128 new moons around Saturn, bringing the planet’s total to 274. A moon is any naturally formed object that moves around a planet. Moons come in different shapes and sizes.
Scientists discovered the moons with a powerful telescope (望远镜), which is used to study stars and planets in great detail. Scientists took many photos of areas in space and piled them on top of each other to make the moons appear bright enough to discover.
Most of Saturn’s new moons are small objects, just one or two miles wide—quite different to Earth’s Moon, which is a 2,159-mile-wide ball. These space rocks are in unusual orbits (轨道) too. They go around Saturn in the opposite direction to its own movement. At between 6.5 million and 18 million miles away from the ringed planet, the newly discovered moons are also further away than Saturn’s biggest moon, Titan.
Why does Saturn have so many moons while Earth only has one According to scientists, several billion years ago, the giant planet’s gravity attracted some rocks and ice. Over time, some of them crashed against each other, breaking into smaller pieces or coming together to create many small moons.
The new moons were first discovered in 2023 by a team of scientists led by Edward Ashton, and were recently confirmed by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). Saturn now is the planet with the most moons—Jupiter is not far behind with 95. However, Dr Ashton believes this might be the limit for moon discovery. “I don’t think Jupiter will ever catch up,” he said. “With present technology, I don’t think we can do better than what has already been done,” he added.
37. What do we know about the new discovery
A. Newly found moons look the same. B. Scientists found new moons by accident.
C. Saturn’s rings attract many scientists. D. 128 new moons were found around Saturn.
38. What does “the ringed planet” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A Earth. B. Saturn. C. Moon. D. Titan.
39. What led to the large number of Saturn’s moons
A. The size of the planet. B. The weights of the moons.
C. The orbit of the planet. D. The crashes of the moons.
40. What can we learn from Dr Ashton’s words in the last paragraph
A. Jupiter will soon catch up with Saturn. B. Saturn’s new moons might support life.
C. The IAU presented a medal to his team. D. He is satisfied with their moon discovery.
【答案】37. D 38. B 39. D 40. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了科学家们在土星周围新发现的128颗卫星，使得土星的卫星总数达到274颗，成为拥有最多卫星的行星。这些新发现的卫星较小，且轨道独特。文章还解释了土星拥有众多卫星的原因，以及科学家对未来的卫星发现的看法。
37. D细节理解题。根据“Scientists have discovered 128 new moons around Saturn”可知科学家们发现了土星周围128颗新的卫星。故选D。
38. B词义猜测题。根据“At between 6.5 million and 18 million miles away from the ringed planet, the newly discovered moons are also further away than Saturn’s biggest moon, Titan.”可知这些新发现的卫星距离土星650万至1800万英里，也比土星最大的卫星泰坦更远，故此处“the ringed planet”指的是土星。故选B。
39. D细节理解题。根据“the giant planet’s gravity attracted some rocks and ice. Over time, some of them crashed against each other, breaking into smaller pieces or coming together to create many small moons.”可知土星的引力吸引了许多岩石和冰块，随着时间的推移，这些物体相互碰撞，破碎成更小的碎片，或者聚集在一起形成了许多小卫星。故选D。
40. D推理判断题。根据“With present technology, I don’t think we can do better than what has already been done”可知Dr Ashton认为，以目前的技术水平，他们已经做到了极致，不太可能再有新的发现，这表明他对团队的发现感到满意。故选D。

(2025连云港市中考一模)On November 14, 2023, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) (国际民用航空组织) officially recognized China’s Bei Dou Satellite Navigation (卫星导航) System (BDS) as the world level. This makes it one of four global satellite navigation systems, along with the United States' GPS, Russia’s GLONASS and the European Union’s Galileo.
China started to develop the BDS in 1994. The system came into use in 2000. After 12 years of work, it began serving the Asia-Pacific region. In 2020, with the global use of BDS-3, China has improved the system to provide users with more correct positioning services, making it a valuable tool for more industries, including transportation, agriculture, and surveying.
Now, with 59 satellites in its network, the BDS has served more than 1.5 billion users across the world. Most mobile apps providing maps, navigation and shopping services in China already support the BDS. China’s satellite navigation industry is growing fast. Its value reached more than 500 billion yuan in 2022. That number is expected to double by 2025. In the first half year of 2023, there were about 13.4 million new BDS devices. Nearly 60% were used in transport systems. The rest were used in communication and agriculture. The former made up about 28%and the latter 12%.
As BDS gets more popular, it is expected to play an increasingly important role in global navigation and positioning services.

(an extract from a detective story)
That evening Holmes again wore different clothes, and a large, black hat. But it was not just the clothes that were different. He changed his face, his hair — everything.
He was a different man.
We walked together to Serpentine Avenue. Outside the house there were a lot of people who were smoking, laughing and talking. Holmes and I walked up and down in front of the house.
“You see,” said Holmes to me, I don’t think she wants her new husband to see the photo.
But where is it At her bank No. Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I’m sure it’s in her house.
“But the King’s men tried to find it!” I said.
“Yes. But they didn’t know where to look for it!” said Holmes. “But how will you know ” I asked. “She’ll show me. She’ll have to.”
Just then Irene’s taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man pushed him. Other men were also pushing and shouting, and a fight began. Irene was in the middle of it, but Holmes ran to help her. Then suddenly he fell to the ground, with blood running down his face. Irene hurried to her front door, but she looked back. “How kind of him to help me! Is the poor man hurt ” she called.
“He’s dead,” cried some voices. “No, he’s only hurt,” cried others. “Bring him into the living room,” she said.
Some people carried Holmes into the house. I waited outside the window and watched. I saw how beautiful Irene was. Then Holmes put up his hand, and I threw the smoke-stick into the room. At once, the people in the street and in the house all began to shout “Fire!” very loudly.
The house was full of smoke. I walked away, and ten minutes later Holmes came to meet me.
“Well done, Watson,” he said. “Have you got the photo ” I asked.
“I know where it is. She showed me,” he answered. “But why did she show you ”
“It’s easy,” he said, and laughed. “You saw all those people in the street I paid them to help us. It wasn’t a real fight and the blood wasn’t real. When people shout “Fire!”, a woman runs to the most important thing in her house, her baby, her gold, or ... a photo. Irene ran to find her photo which is in a cupboard in the living room. I saw it. But I did not take it. Tomorrow we will go to the palace and tell it to the King first. And then we will go to her house with the King. We’ll go very early, before she gets up. The King himself can take the photo from the cupboard.
And then we’ll go.
33．At first, Holmes changed his clothes in order to ________.

(2025连云港市中考一模)On a warm summer afternoon, Tina was working close to the ground. Wet soil got on her clothes and hair. Tina smiles a lot when she works on the Hanapepe salt patch (盐场) on the west side of Kauai.
Tina drives about an hour to get here. “It’s hard work. But for me, it’s also play,” Tina said, adding with a laugh. “I play in the mud all day,” Tina’s family is one of 22 families that have devoted themselves to promoting (促进, 提升) the cultural tradition of paakai, the Hawaiian word for salt.
This is one of the last remaining salt patches in Hawaii. The salt produced here can be traded or given away, but it is not to be sold. Hawaiians use it for cooking, healing and protection. However, this place has been facing many kinds of threats (威胁) over the past ten years, including social development, pollution from a nearby airport and sand erosion (流失) from traffic and rubbish thrown by visitors.
Besides, what worries the people most is the climate change, causing rising sea levels and bad weather situations. In 2023, the salt-making season lasted only three months, from July to September, because of heavy rain. During a good year, work often begins in May and ends in November.
Malia leads efforts to protect centuries-old traditions. Her grandfather played an important role in forming a group of salt-making families called Hui Hana Paakai. The organization’s goal, Malia said, is to protect the traditional practice of making salt by hand, which had been passed down for many years.
37．How does Tina feel when working
A．Tired. B．Angry. C．Bored. D．Happy.
38．What does the underlined word “paakai” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．Salt. B．Mud. C．Trade. D．Cooking
39．What may be the biggest threat (威胁) to salt-making on the patch
A．Social development. B．Airport pollution. C．Sand erosion. D．Climate change.
40．What is the purpose of Hui Hana Paakai
A．To help fight against climate changes. B．To protect the tradition of making salt.
C．To improve the skills of processing salt. D．To introduce the old tradition to visitors.

Memory Corner
Four students have written these tips for the school newspaper about memory improving.
HenryA great way to help you remember something is to imagine a picture of it in your mind. For example, to remember the word “smiles”, we can imagine there is a “mile” between the first letter and the last letter. This makes it the longest word in the world.
SarahA good method for remembering the spelling of a word is to make a short sentence with each letter of the word. For example, if you want to remember how to spell the word “because”, you can use the sentence “Big elephants can always understand small elephants.”
PaulYou will forget something very quickly unless you understand it well. For example, you may have trouble remembering the list of steps in the water cycle. However, it is easier to remember these steps if you understand how the water cycle works.
KateIt is important to exercise your brain. For example, you can do new things and change your daily habits. If you walk a different way to school or take a different bus, you will keep your brain active. You can also try a word puzzle (字谜) or learn new skills.
51. The four students have written these tips for ________.
A. a picture book B. the class report

(2025连云港赣榆区中考一模)Have you ever met large changes in life and work How would you feel In fact, we all have to go through the grief cycle（悲伤循环）which has the following periods:
The first period: “it can’t be happening.”
Anger: “Why me It’s not fair.”
Depression: “I’m so sad. Why do I have to do all of these ”
Acceptance: “It’s going to be OK.”
I’m honestly not sure how scientific this model is but I certainly believe that you will work better after going through these changes.
Find out what your anger does for you—good or bad Think back to the situation where you have been angry at work and ask yourself how it influences you, including: your relationship with co-workers, the quality of your work and health, your relationship with friends and family.
Find out what makes you angry and less angry. Which thoughts, situations, people or conversations makes you less angry I’m sure you are not angry all the time. What makes you calm and stops you from feeling angry Find out, then start doing less of what makes you angry and more of the things that cool you down.
Focus on gratitude. What are you grateful for As I mentioned above, anger is part of the grief cycle which is connected with what you lose. Gratitude is the opposite of loss because it comes from the good things you have in your life. Every evening, sit down with a piece of paper and make two gratitude lists: three things I was grateful for at work today; three things I was thankful for in life today.
Change your focus from “What was done to me” to “What I can do ” Life is 10% about what happens to you and 90% about how you deal with it. You must take responsibility for your own situation rather than be a victim（牺牲品）of it. That kind of advice can get pretty boring but that doesn’t make it less true.

(2025连云港灌南县中考一模)Wearing a mask while sleeping at home sounds a little crazy. But Wu Keying did so during the out-break(爆发) of the COVID-19. She said she feared that she would be infected(感染). And now she was still worried about her health. In fact, many people have experienced feelings like Wu. Nearly 80 percent of people are deeply worried about the outbreak, while over 40 percent strongly fear it, according to a recent survey.
These feelings are normal for people who are going through stressful events, according to Wang Weihua, an expert on positive psychology(积极心理学). Wang said that some stressful reactions(反应) could help us fight the virus. And we can also take more protective actions, such as wearing masks and washing hands often.
But if these feelings last too long, it will be bad for our mental(心里的) health, Wang added. So how can we stay positive
“First, we should learn to accept unexpected changes in life. We might learn new lessons from these changes, like respecting nature and being more responsible. Another useful way to stay positive is to stick to a normal routine(正常作息). The key is to take good care of the body, have enough sleep and healthy diet, and get the necessary rest and relaxation,” said Li Lan, a doctor of Wuhan Health Center.
59. Wu Keying wore a mask while sleeping because _____.
A. she was scared of being infected

(2025连云港灌南县中考一模)Do you want to live a happier life Try laughing for no reason at all. That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world.
Many doctors are interested in the effects of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study, laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%. They think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.
The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing. We want people to feel happy with their lives,” says Dr. Kataria. There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.
So, what happens at a Laughter Club I went to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest—I didn’t like laughing with a group of strangers. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha” while looking at each other. Although our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake (假的) laughter and real laughter, they still have the same healthy effects.
After ten minutes, everybody in the room was laughing genuinely (真诚地), and some people just couldn’t stop laughing! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!
63. The underlined word “effects” means ________ in Chinese.
A. 影响 B. 原因 C. 成绩 D. 感受
64. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. All of the people in Laughter Clubs are good friends.
B. Fake laughter and real laughter are both good for health.
C. There are over 1,300 Laughter Clubs in India.

65. What is the purpose of the passage
A. To ask us to join the Laughter Club. B. To show us different ways of laughing.
C. To advise us to laugh for a happy life. D. To tell us the man behind the Laughter Club.
【答案】63. A 64. B 65. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了笑声俱乐部以及笑声对健康的积极影响。
63. A词义猜测题。根据“According to a 5-year study, laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%. They think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.”可知，笑声对健康有改善作用，所以“effects”意思应该是“影响”，故选A。

(2025连云港灌云县中考一模)It’s hard to believe that after all our time on Earth, there are still places that we don’t know everything about. The huge and cold continent of Antarctica (南极大陆) is just one of them.
According to Tom Jordan, a scientist, there are still unexplored areas on our maps of Antarctica. And that’s something he and his team members want to explore. They’ve arrived in Antarctica with a new drone*. They think it will help. They want to find out more about how climate change is influencing the continent, and learn about its areas, both above the ice and below it.
Scientists have often used planes with pilots to watch these areas, but Antarctica s weather makes such tasks dangerous. These planes aren’t able to spend long in the air, and they must carry a lot of oil.
However, the new drone, made by a British company, can do the work more safely at a lower cost. The drone will be able to carry up to 100 kg of things and travel up to 1,000 km. And it can draw the shape of the land below the ice more correctly. This will help scientists better understand how the continent is changing.
“That will help us plan the future,” Tom said. The drone is still being tested in Antarctica. But it’s hoped that in the future, scientists will be able to fly it over the cold continent far, while staying in a warm place.
* The word “drone” means an aircraft without a pilot, controlled from the ground.
51. What is the main idea of the third paragraph
A. The features of the new drone.
B. The process of testing the drone.
C. The importance of climate change research.
D. The difficulties of using planes with pilots in Antarctica.

I’m a blue whale. I may eat up to 3.6 million krill (磷虾) per day! You may wonder why such huge animals live on such tiny food It’s because our mouths only have rows of baleen (鲸须). It lets water flow out while holding in tiny things.
I’m a hummingbird. We eat flower nectar (蜜). We fly around a few thousand flowers each day to get as much food as possible. As we move our wings really fast, we burn through energy fast. So we need to keep feeding.
Hello~from~a~sloth~in~the~South~America! Our favorite food Low-energy leaves! Do we eat a lot No. We slow-movers don’t need a lot of energy. Even our stomachs work so slowly that after a meal, we’re too tired to do anything but... sleep!

(江苏连云港中考真题)An hour before the show, the backstage (后台) was busy and noisy. Young male Peking Opera artists in their 20s were applying makeup, adjusting costumes, stretching, and clearing their throats. The air was filled with the sounds of traditional Chinese instruments.
“These young people started learning with me when they were just kids—now they’re adults, leading the shows themselves,” says Yang Shaochun, an 85-year-old Peking Opera master.
This weekend, four shows will be put on at Beijing People’s Theatre. Young wuxi artists will play the lead roles.
Wuxi, or martial (武术的) play, is the base of the fighting and movement part in Peking Opera. Wei Pengyu, a 29-year-old actor, was attracted to Peking Opera as a child—not by the music or stories at first, but by the colorful, amazing facial masks that brought the characters to life. At 14, he began training in Peking Opera, especially in wusheng—a male role type. “For me, stepping into the role of a hero is a dream come true,” he says.
“Playing wuxi isn’t just about action—it’s about expressing the character’s courage, justice (正义), loyalty and strength through movements,” says Xu Zhouyi, 25, another male actor.
Later that evening, a classic piece San Cha Kou was played by two young actors, Wu Zeyu and Shu Jiaxing. The viewers were attracted to the great scene and cheered for the actors’ excellent martial art movements.
Wu and Shu practiced together for nearly a year. “San Cha Kou is a test of trust between two actors. We have to read each other’s energy—know when one is speeding up or slowing down. Every movement must be perfectly counted to avoid real crashes while still looking dangerous,” says Wu.
33. What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph 1
A. Asking the master for help. B. Getting ready for the show.
C. Having a martial art lesson. D. Learning a new instrument.
34. Why does the writer mention Wei Pengyu and Xu Zhouyi
A. To share their life experiences. B. To compare their training results.
C. To show their understanding of wuxi. D. To express their love for facial masks.
35. What message can we learn from the successful show of San Cha Kou
A. Practice makes perfect. B. One is never too old to learn.
C. Great hopes make great man. D. Friends should be few but good.
36. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Wuxi movements impress viewers B. Young actors shine in Peking Opera
C. Wuxi actors celebrate after graduating D. A Peking Opera master opens a school

(江苏连云港中考真题)Saturn (土星) is famous for the beautiful rings around it. Now, it’s getting attention for being even more amazing. Scientists have discovered 128 new moons around Saturn, bringing the planet’s total to 274. A moon is any naturally formed object that moves around a planet. Moons come in different shapes and sizes.
Scientists discovered the moons with a powerful telescope (望远镜), which is used to study stars and planets in great detail. Scientists took many photos of areas in space and piled them on top of each other to make the moons appear bright enough to discover.
Most of Saturn’s new moons are small objects, just one or two miles wide—quite different to Earth’s Moon, which is a 2,159-mile-wide ball. These space rocks are in unusual orbits (轨道) too. They go around Saturn in the opposite direction to its own movement. At between 6.5 million and 18 million miles away from the ringed planet, the newly discovered moons are also further away than Saturn’s biggest moon, Titan.
Why does Saturn have so many moons while Earth only has one According to scientists, several billion years ago, the giant planet’s gravity attracted some rocks and ice. Over time, some of them crashed against each other, breaking into smaller pieces or coming together to create many small moons.
The new moons were first discovered in 2023 by a team of scientists led by Edward Ashton, and were recently confirmed by the International Astronomical Union (IAU). Saturn now is the planet with the most moons—Jupiter is not far behind with 95. However, Dr Ashton believes this might be the limit for moon discovery. “I don’t think Jupiter will ever catch up,” he said. “With present technology, I don’t think we can do better than what has already been done,” he added.
37. What do we know about the new discovery
A. Newly found moons look the same. B. Scientists found new moons by accident.
C. Saturn’s rings attract many scientists. D. 128 new moons were found around Saturn.
38. What does “the ringed planet” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A Earth. B. Saturn. C. Moon. D. Titan.
39. What led to the large number of Saturn’s moons
A. The size of the planet. B. The weights of the moons.
C. The orbit of the planet. D. The crashes of the moons.
40. What can we learn from Dr Ashton’s words in the last paragraph
A. Jupiter will soon catch up with Saturn. B. Saturn’s new moons might support life.
C. The IAU presented a medal to his team. D. He is satisfied with their moon discovery.

He was a different man.
We walked together to Serpentine Avenue. Outside the house there were a lot of people who were smoking, laughing and talking. Holmes and I walked up and down in front of the house.
“You see,” said Holmes to me, I don’t think she wants her new husband to see the photo.
But where is it At her bank No. Such a woman likes to keep important things herself. I’m sure it’s in her house.
“But the King’s men tried to find it!” I said.
“Yes. But they didn’t know where to look for it!” said Holmes. “But how will you know ” I asked. “She’ll show me. She’ll have to.”
Just then Irene’s taxi arrived. One of the men in the street ran to open the door and then another man pushed him. Other men were also pushing and shouting, and a fight began.

“Well done, Watson,” he said. “Have you got the photo ” I asked.
“I know where it is. She showed me,” he answered. “But why did she show you ”
“It’s easy,” he said, and laughed. “You saw all those people in the street I paid them to help us. It wasn’t a real fight and the blood wasn’t real. When people shout “Fire!”, a woman runs to the most important thing in her house, her baby, her gold, or ... a photo. Irene ran to find her photo which is in a cupboard in the living room. I saw it. But I did not take it. Tomorrow we will go to the palace and tell it to the King first. And then we will go to her house with the King. We’ll go very early, before she gets up.

(2025连云港市中考一模)On a warm summer afternoon, Tina was working close to the ground. Wet soil got on her clothes and hair. Tina smiles a lot when she works on the Hanapepe salt patch (盐场) on the west side of Kauai.
Tina drives about an hour to get here. “It’s hard work. But for me, it’s also play,” Tina said, adding with a laugh. “I play in the mud all day,” Tina’s family is one of 22 families that have devoted themselves to promoting (促进, 提升) the cultural tradition of paakai, the Hawaiian word for salt.
This is one of the last remaining salt patches in Hawaii. The salt produced here can be traded or given away, but it is not to be sold. Hawaiians use it for cooking, healing and protection.

Besides, what worries the people most is the climate change, causing rising sea levels and bad weather situations. In 2023, the salt-making season lasted only three months, from July to September, because of heavy rain. During a good year, work often begins in May and ends in November.
Malia leads efforts to protect centuries-old traditions. Her grandfather played an important role in forming a group of salt-making families called Hui Hana Paakai. The organization’s goal, Malia said, is to protect the traditional practice of making salt by hand, which had been passed down for many years.

Memory Corner
Four students have written these tips for the school newspaper about memory improving.
HenryA great way to help you remember something is to imagine a picture of it in your mind. For example, to remember the word “smiles”, we can imagine there is a “mile” between the first letter and the last letter. This makes it the longest word in the world.
SarahA good method for remembering the spelling of a word is to make a short sentence with each letter of the word. For example, if you want to remember how to spell the word “because”, you can use the sentence “Big elephants can always understand small elephants.”
PaulYou will forget something very quickly unless you understand it well. For example, you may have trouble remembering the list of steps in the water cycle. However, it is easier to remember these steps if you understand how the water cycle works.
KateIt is important to exercise your brain. For example, you can do new things and change your daily habits. If you walk a different way to school or take a different bus, you will keep your brain active. You can also try a word puzzle (字谜) or learn new skills.

(2025连云港赣榆区中考一模)Have you ever met large changes in life and work How would you feel In fact, we all have to go through the grief cycle（悲伤循环）which has the following periods:
The first period: “it can’t be happening.”
Anger: “Why me It’s not fair.”
Depression: “I’m so sad. Why do I have to do all of these ”
Acceptance: “It’s going to be OK.”
I’m honestly not sure how scientific this model is but I certainly believe that you will work better after going through these changes.
Find out what your anger does for you—good or bad Think back to the situation where you have been angry at work and ask yourself how it influences you, including: your relationship with co-workers, the quality of your work and health, your relationship with friends and family.
Find out what makes you angry and less angry. Which thoughts, situations, people or conversations makes you less angry I’m sure you are not angry all the time. What makes you calm and stops you from feeling angry Find out, then start doing less of what makes you angry and more of the things that cool you down.
Focus on gratitude. What are you grateful for As I mentioned above, anger is part of the grief cycle which is connected with what you lose. Gratitude is the opposite of loss because it comes from the good things you have in your life. Every evening, sit down with a piece of paper and make two gratitude lists: three things I was grateful for at work today; three things I was thankful for in life today.
Change your focus from “What was done to me” to “What I can do ” Life is 10% about what happens to you and 90% about how you deal with it. You must take responsibility for your own situation rather than be a victim（牺牲品）of it. That kind of advice can get pretty boring but that doesn’t make it less true.

“First, we should learn to accept unexpected changes in life. We might learn new lessons from these changes, like respecting nature and being more responsible. Another useful way to stay positive is to stick to a normal routine(正常作息).

Many doctors are interested in the effects of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study, laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%. They think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.
The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing. We want people to feel happy with their lives,” says Dr. Kataria. There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.
So, what happens at a Laughter Club I went to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest—I didn’t like laughing with a group of strangers. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha” while looking at each other. Although our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake (假的) laughter and real laughter, they still have the same healthy effects.
After ten minutes, everybody in the room was laughing genuinely (真诚地), and some people just couldn’t stop laughing! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!

(2025连云港灌云县中考一模)It’s hard to believe that after all our time on Earth, there are still places that we don’t know everything about. The huge and cold continent of Antarctica (南极大陆) is just one of them.
According to Tom Jordan, a scientist, there are still unexplored areas on our maps of Antarctica. And that’s something he and his team members want to explore. They’ve arrived in Antarctica with a new drone*. They think it will help. They want to find out more about how climate change is influencing the continent, and learn about its areas, both above the ice and below it.
Scientists have often used planes with pilots to watch these areas, but Antarctica s weather makes such tasks dangerous. These planes aren’t able to spend long in the air, and they must carry a lot of oil.
However, the new drone, made by a British company, can do the work more safely at a lower cost. The drone will be able to carry up to 100 kg of things and travel up to 1,000 km. And it can draw the shape of the land below the ice more correctly. This will help scientists better understand how the continent is changing.
“That will help us plan the future,” Tom said. The drone is still being tested in Antarctica. But it’s hoped that in the future, scientists will be able to fly it over the cold continent far, while staying in a warm place.
* The word “drone” means an aircraft without a pilot, controlled from the ground.

(2025连云港灌云县中考一模)Have you ever bought something and then changed your mind For Alison Jenson, 15, this used to happen several times a week. Alison was a shopaholic. She just couldn’t stop shopping and she loved special offers.
Alison’s bedroom is full of stuff. “I’ve been to every shop in Birmingham, I think,” says Alison. She picks up some earrings. The labels are still on them. “These were half price,” she says. “I’ve never won them.” Alison’s problem wasn’t just jewellery. She also bought a lot of clothes, though not many shoes, because they were usually too expensive. She has also bought lots of other small things—like 20 new covers for her phone. She hasn’t used any of them.
According to experts, we all feel excited after we buy something new. For shopaholics, it’s a little different. Soon after they buy something, they think they’ve made a mistake and start to feel unhappy. So they buy themselves something else to feel happier.
Psychologists （心理学家）first described the problems of shopaholics in 1915. However, there was very little research on the subject until recently. Now, doctors think thousands of people suffer from the problem, and the situation is getting worse. There are also more teenage shopaholics now, although most young people don’t have enough money to go shopping very regularly.
Alison knew she had a problem. “I often bought something every day. Usually it was something small, but I just needed to buy it,” she says. “I spent money that I got for my birthday, and when I was short of cash, I borrowed money from friends or my parents. When I couldn’t go shopping, I felt anxious. Then one day, my parents just looked at all the stuff in my room and said, This is crazy!I knew they were right. I needed some big changes in my life.”
Alison now gets help with her problem and feels she has changed. She no longer thinks she’s a shopaholic. “When I want to buy something in a shop, I ask myself two questions,” she says. “Do I need it Can I afford it The answer to both questions is usually ‘no’, so I walk away. It’s great!”
59. What do experts say about shopaholics
A. Shopaholics feel sad when they are shopping.
B. Shopaholics soon feel unhappy after they have bought something.
C. Shopaholics feel more excited than other people when they shop.

Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels to make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably. Some even wear tight clothes that influence blood circulation, making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health
Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money
So, let’s rethink what’s really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being Clothes or hairstyles don’t tell us anything about a person’s character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let’s eat properly and exercise regularly. Remember, your worth is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person.

Common people also ordered takeouts. Restaurant waiters would go out into the streets and yell out which dishes could be ordered that day. After hearing the waiters, people could then place an order. Later, delivery workers would bring food to their homes. In the famous Song Dynasty painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival (《清明上河图》), a takeout worker can be seen on a delivery with food in hand.

(2025连云港经开区中考一模)It was half past seven on Monday morning: time to get ready for school. Jay Stone rolled out of bed. He did a couple of quick wake-up exercises and then he went over to his mirror (镜子) and looked at himself.
“Not bad, Stone, not bad,” he said to himself and smiled. Maybe he wasn’t ready for Hollywood, but with his dark brown eyes and his thick brown hair, he had the looks that turned girls’ heads. He moved closer to the mirror and smiled, checking his teeth.
“Perfect,” he thought. “Good enough for a toothpaste ad.”
As his eyes moved down to his strong arms, he smiled again. The hours he spent in the gym and doing sit-ups have paid off.
But suddenly, the smile froze. His eyes moved from the upper part of his body down to his legs. His legs were short. Not just short, but far too short for his body. He had the upper body of a six-footer, but because of his legs he was much less than six feet! Six inches less! Sitting, he was as tall as almost anyone. Standing, he had to look up at most of the boys and even many of the girls.
Why didn’t his legs grow with the rest of his body He was one of the shortest boys in his class. He was the shortest in his own family, he was even shorter than his “little” sister—by three inches! Where did his legs come from
He certainly didn’t get them from his parents. They were both quite tall. Looking through old family photos, he found the answer. It was his grandfather on his mother’s side. His short legs were a gift from Grandpa Tuttle.
Thanks a lot, Grandpa!
Of course, the kids at school all noticed Jay’s short legs and they had a nickname (外号) for him: Stubs! Almost no one called him by his real name; they all called him Stubs. Stubs Stone, Jay didn’t like his nickname, but he had to accept it. He had no choice.
But Jay couldn’t see in the mirror what his legs could do. They were quick and strong. He was the youngest player on the Brewer High football team. He could run faster than anyone else in the team and, like a rabbit, he kept going and going. Even at basketball, where the other players were much taller than him, they were still afraid of him because of his speed.
Jay shook his head. “Stubs, Stubs Stone, the kid with stubby legs. Yeah, that’s me,” he said to himself with a little smile. Suddenly, he heard his mother’s voice.
“Jay! It’s breakfast time!”

(2025连云港开发区中考一模)One day, when I was young, my parents took me to a large shopping mall. However, as we passed by a toy store, I was drawn by a shiny toy car in the window. I stopped to take a closer look, and when I turned around, my parents were gone. I was so scared that I began to cry. Luckily, some volunteers noticed me and looked after me. In their company, I slowly calmed down, and finally my parents found me.
I’ve always been thankful for their help and keep this experience in mind. Since then, I have joined volunteer teams and taken part in many activities.
I remember one time when I was at a bus stop, I was especially impressed. My job was to help people get on the right buses. A middle-aged woman with big bags stood alone for a long time, looking confused. I talked with her, found out where she needed to go and told her how to get there. She was going to see her daughter, who hadn’t been home for months because of busy work.
I was glad to help others in this way. Once, I was taking part in a voluntary activity on the riverbank with friends. While picking up rubbish, I found a bunch of keys and a pile of documents on the grass. I waited there for 20 minutes, but no one came. So I phoned a local radio station for help. Finally, a schoolboy arrived and thanked me because the documents were necessary for his exam.
I really love voluntary work. In the future, I will keep passing on my love and helping those in need, just as I was helped in my childhood.

Then came the day when the last bandage and plaster cast were taken off. It was a special day of celebration. All the family was there.
White Fang tried to stand up, but fell down from weakness.

He went outside like a king, with all the family around him. He was very weak. When he reached the grass, he lay down and rested for a while. Then he got up again and walked. His legs felt slowly stronger.
When he reached the stable, there lay Collie, with six fat little puppies playing around her. White Fang looked at them, and Collie snarled a warning at him. He was careful to keep his distance.
One of the women picked Collie up. One of her surprises was in front of him. White Fang watched it curiously. Then their noses touched, and he felt a warm little tongue. White Fang didn’t know why, but his own tongue went out and licked (舔) the puppy’s nose.

“The Shu Road is difficult, even more difficult than climbing up to the blue sky,” Chinese poet Li Bai once said. The Shu Road system, or shudao, was an ancient road to the Shu Kingdom, which was separated from the Central Plains of China by many steep mountains.
The Shu Road has been an important link (联系) between the Changjiang River and Yellow River culture for over 2,000 years.
For American scholar Hop Justman, the Shu Road is more than a path, it is a living history book. In 2001, when she first walked on its ancient flagstones (石板), Justman could picture people from the past. She believes the old stones on the road can tell stories of long-ago times. Every part of this road, Justman thinks, has a piece of history. It’s like a book that comes alive. Since then, she has visited the “greatest road in China” many times.
In 2007, Just
