When I was in Grade Eight, I was very bad at English speaking. I was afraid to answer questions in class, even if I knew the answers. My deskmate, Lily, found out about my problem.
One day, she said, “Our English teacher is going to hold a ‘Story Telling’ competition next week. Let’s join it together! I’ll help you practice.” I was scared, but Lily encouraged me to try. Every evening after school, we practiced in the classroom. She listened to my stories and told me how to speak more clearly and confidently.
On the day of the competition, I was still nervous. But when I saw Lily sitting in the front row, smiling at me, I felt brave. I told my story about a little bird learning to fly. When I finished, everyone clapped. I didn’t win first prize, but I felt proud of myself.

School activities are important for students’ growth, but they are different in different countries. Let’s look at two common activities.
In China, many middle schools hold “Sports Day” every year. Students take part in different sports, such as running, jumping rope, and basketball matches. Classes compete against each other, and the winning class gets a trophy. Teachers and parents often come to cheer for the students. It’s a day full of energy and team spirit.
In the UK, middle schools often have “Science Week”. During the week, students do different science activities: they make small robots, do simple experiments (like growing plants), and listen to talks from scientists. Some schools even take students to science museums. The goal is to make students interested in science and help them learn through practice.
Though these activities are different, they both help students learn new things and develop skills.
5. What do Chinese middle schools often hold every year
A. Science Week. B. Sports Day. C. Art Show. D. English Competition.
6. What do students do during the UK’s “Science Week”
A. Take part in basketball matches. B. Do science experiments and make robots.
C. Compete with other classes for a trophy. D. Cheer for their classmates.
7. What is the common purpose of the two activities
A. To help students learn new things and develop skills.

Many middle schools have a “Plant Corner” in the classroom. It’s a small area where students grow plants like sunflowers, tomatoes, or green vegetables. Taking care of the plants is easy if you follow these steps.
First, choose the right plants. Pick plants that grow quickly and don’t need too much care, like sunflowers or bean sprouts. They are perfect for students because you can see them grow in a short time.
Second, give the plants enough sunlight and water. Put the plants near the window so they can get sunlight every day. Water them once a day, but don’t pour too much—too much water will make the roots rot.
Third, take turns to look after them. Ask each student in the class to take a day to check the plants: water them if the soil is dry, and remove any dead leaves. This way, everyone can take part and learn about responsibility.
Watching the plants grow from seeds to small plants is fun. It also teaches students about nature and teamwork.
8. What kind of plants are suitable for the classroom “Plant Corner”
A. Plants that grow slowly. B. Plants that need much care.
C. Plants that grow quickly and are easy to care for. D. Plants that need no sunlight.
9. How often should you water the plants in the “Plant Corner”
A. Once a week. B. Once a day. C. Twice a day. D. Three times a week.
10. Why do students take turns to look after the plants
A. Because it’s a rule from the teacher.
B. Because no one wants to do it alone.
C. Because everyone can take part and learn responsibility.
D. Because the plants need different people to water them.

六、任务型阅读,阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题(每题2分,共6分)
A class book exchange activity is a great way to share books and save money. It lets you read new books without buying them, and you can also make friends by talking about your favorite books. Here are three simple steps to organize it.
First, plan ahead. Tell your classmates about the activity two weeks in advance. Ask everyone to bring 1-2 books they have read and want to share—make sure the books are in good condition (no torn pages). Decide the time (like after class on Friday) and place (the classroom).
Second, set up the activity. Put all the books on the teacher’s desk. Let each student pick one book first, then take turns to pick more if there are extra books. Ask students to write their name and a short comment about the book (e.g., “This story is very funny!”) on a small card and stick it in the book.
Third, share and discuss. After picking books, let students sit in groups of 3-4. Ask them to talk about why they chose the book and what they expect to read. You can also ask a few students to share their favorite parts of the books they brought.
This activity is easy and fun. It not only helps you read more books but also makes your class more united.
1. What is the main purpose of a class book exchange activity
2. What do you need to ask classmates to bring to the activity
3. What should students do after picking books in the activity
