Do you have a sore throat, a runny nose or a headache Do you keep coughing or sneezing If you do, you probably have a cold or the flu, but which one do you have 31
Colds, which usually last about a week, make a difference to the nose most. They usually cause a runny nose and sneezing. 32 Sometimes, they result in a headache, a cough and some aching problems.
33 People with the flu usually get all the problems above. However, they also get a high fever, a dry cough and much worse aching. The problems also last much longer. Sometimes you can’t get better for at least two weeks.
The flu can be a terrible thing. The old, who are less healthy than most young people, can die from the flu. 34 The injection (注射) is necessary and can truly save them.
Try not to touch your nose or eyes if you have been close to someone who has a cold. 35 If you catch a cold or have the flu, go to bed for a while. Doing what we tell you will help you get better. Drink lots of water and stay in a warm, well-aired room. If you have a headache, take some medicine. And it’s a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze.
A．Wash your hands after cleaning your nose.
B．What’s worse, you may have to open your mouth to breathe.
C．Although both colds and the flu result from viruses, they are different in some ways.

After a long week of school and homework, I felt tired and stressed. My mom noticed my low mood and said everyone needs time to relax—it’s not a waste but a way to recharge.
One afternoon, she took me to a small park near our home. The park was quiet, with green trees and colorful flowers. I walked slowly, breathing fresh air. Children played happily on the grass, and their laughter made me feel 36 . I used to stay all day indoors, so being close to nature brought me a new 37 .
We sat on a bench, my mom read quietly while I watched birds fly. I thought about my busy week—endless homework and tests. I realized I’d pushed myself too hard and forgot to 38 a break.
Suddenly, a cute dog ran to me, wagging its tail. Its owner smiled and said, “He helps people feel relaxed.” I smiled back, feeling a warm 39 in my heart. The dog stayed by my side, making me forget all my worries for a while.
On the way home, Mom said, “Relaxation isn’t doing nothing, but something that lightens your heart.” That afternoon made me understand the importance of 40 time to relax.
Now, when I’m stressed, I will take a short walk or listen to soft music. I know relaxation can help me study better and live 41 . Last week, my friend Lily felt stressed too. I told her my experience and invited her to the park. She felt much better after our walk, which made me 42 proud.
It’s easy to get busy with schoolwork, but we must remember our body and mind need rest. Taking time to relax is not lazy, it’s a smart way to keep ourselves healthy and 43 . Every day, I spend 10 minutes doing what I enjoy, which helps me 44 stress quickly.
Relaxation is a necessity, not a luxury. It helps us stay calm and ready to face challenges. So, don’t forget to take a break and 45 yourself sometimes.

One day, Yaming welcomed Ella back and asked about her trip. Ella 46 (happy) shared that it was wonderful because she had seen the amazing Hukou Waterfall on the Yellow River. She wondered if the Yellow River was 47 (long) river in China.
Yaming explained that the Yangtze River is the one. He said the Yangtze River, about 6,300 km long, flows the farthest, 48 the Yellow River, 5,464 km long, is the second longest. Then, Yaming asked why it is called the Yellow River. Ella guessed it was because of 49 (it) colour. Yaming 50 (nod) and added that it carries yellow earth, giving it a special look.
Ella found it 51 (interest) and mentioned her love for rivers, especially the Nile. She said the Nile is the longest river in Africa. Yaming replied that he knew it is 6,671 km in 52 (long) and key to Egypt’s history.
Ella pointed out that both rivers helped ancient civilizations develop and remain 53 (important) today. Yaming shared that in China, the Yellow River is respected 54 the “mother river”. Finally, Ella said people should try to provide 55 (protect) for these great rivers.

第一节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
Exploring nature is a wonderful experience that everyone should have. It not only allows us to see beautiful scenery but also helps us grow as individuals. Here are some stories about people exploring nature and what they learned from it.
Lisa, a 14-year-old student, went on a three-day camping trip with her family last summer. They set up a tent in a forest and spent their days hiking and fishing. On the second day, they got lost in the forest. At first, Lisa felt scared, but her father told her to stay calm and look for signs. They followed the sound of a river and finally found their way back. Lisa learned that when facing difficulties, being calm and patient is very important.
Tom, a 15-year-old boy, loves exploring mountains. He has climbed many small mountains near his home. Last month, he climbed a higher mountain with his friends. The climb was very hard, and he wanted to give up several times. But with the encouragement of his friends, he kept going and reached the top. From this experience, Tom learned the importance of teamwork and perseverance.
These stories show that exploring nature is not just about having fun. It’s about learning valuable lessons and becoming a better person. It also helps us appreciate the beauty of our planet and understand our role in protecting it.
56．How long did Lisa’s camping trip last
57．What happened to Lisa and her family on the second day of the camping trip
58．Who encouraged Tom to keep climbing the mountain

32．第二段介绍感冒的症状。空白处前说感冒主要影响鼻子，引起流鼻涕和打喷嚏，空白处后说“有时还会导致头痛、咳嗽和疼痛”。选项B“更糟的是，你可能得张嘴呼吸”补充了感冒可能导致的另一个症状（鼻塞），与前后文形成并列关系，符合对感冒症状的罗列。
33．第三段介绍流感的症状。空白处位于段首，应为本段主题句。后文描述流感患者有上述所有症状，还有高烧、干咳和更严重的疼痛，持续时间更长。选项D“流感要严重得多”准确概括了本段内容，与第二段感冒形成对比。
34．第四段讲流感的严重性。空白处前说老年人可能因流感死亡，空白处后说注射是必要的并能救他们。选项E“所以老年人应该在冬天流感最普遍之前接种流感疫苗”与前后文形成因果关系，指出应对措施，衔接自然。
35．第五段给出预防和应对建议。空白处前说“如果你接触过感冒患者，尽量不要摸鼻子或眼睛”，空白处后说“如果感冒或得流感，躺下休息一会儿”。选项A“擦完鼻子后要洗手”是预防措施的具体补充，与前后文构成并列的建议，符合段落主题。

本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者自身关于放松的经历与感悟。
36．孩子们在草地上开心玩耍，他们的笑声让我感到开心。
前文“Children played happily on the grass, and their laughter…”提到孩子们在草地上开心玩耍，他们的笑声会让原本疲惫压抑的作者感到开心，happy“开心的”，符合语境。sad“悲伤”，angry“愤怒”，tired“疲惫”，都是消极情绪，均不符合语境。
37．我过去总是整天待在室内，所以亲近大自然给我带来了一种全新的感受。
前文提到“I used to stay indoors all day, so being close to nature brought me a new…”作者过去整天都待在室内，所以亲近自然给作者带来了全新的感觉，结合语境只有feeling“感受”符合，job“工作”，book“书”，gift“礼物”均不符合语境。
38．我意识到我把自己逼得太紧，忘了休息一下。
“I’d pushed myself too hard and forgot to…a break.”，此处表示“我逼自己太紧，忘记了休息”，take a break“休息”，固定搭配。make“制作”，do助动词，get“得到”，均不符合语境。
39． 我也回以微笑，心里感到一阵温暖的感觉。
前文指出“I smiled back, feeling a warm… ”微笑和互动带来的是一种温暖的感觉，feeling“感觉”，符合语境。pain“痛苦”，sadness“悲伤”，worry“担忧”均为负面情绪，与warm矛盾，不符合语境。
40．那个下午让我明白了花时间放松的重要性。
根据“understand the importance of…time to relax.”可知，此处表示“那天下午让我明白了花时间放松的重要性”，take time to do sth“花时间做某事”，固定搭配，介词of后接动名词，wasting“浪费”，killing“消磨”，saving“节省”，都不符合语义。不符合文章积极的主题。
41．我知道放松能帮助我更好地学习，生活得更快乐。
前文指出“I know relaxation can help me study better and live…”放松能帮助我们更好地更快乐地学习、生活，and连接并列结构，better是比较级，空格处也应填比较级。结合语境，放松让人 happier“更快乐”，符合语境。harder“更努力”，worse“更糟糕”，busier“更忙”均逻辑不通。
42．散步后她感觉好多了，这让我感到很自豪。
前文指出“She felt much better after our walk, which made me…proud.”朋友因为 “我” 的帮助而状态变好这件事触发了作者的内心情绪——自豪感。feel proud意为“感到自豪”，是最自然的情感表达，feel“感觉”符合语境。look“看起来”，sound“听起来”，taste“尝起来”，都和语义不符。
43．花时间放松不是懒惰，这是保持我们健康和强健的明智方法。
前文指出“Taking time to relax is not lazy, it’s a smart way to keep ourselves healthy and…”花时间放松是保持健康和强健的明智方法，and连接并列成分，与healthy“健康”语义并列的词为strong“强健的”，符合语境。weak“虚弱”，sick“生病”，lazy“懒惰”，都是消极意义，不符合语境。
44．每天，我会花10分钟做我喜欢的事，这能帮助我快速减轻压力。
前文作者指出“I spend 10 minutes doing what I enjoy, which helps me… stress quickly.”作者每天花10分钟做喜欢的事情能够放松，作用是减少压力，reduce“减少”，符合语境。increase“增加”，add“添加”，find“找到”，都不符合语境。
45．所以，别忘了偶尔休息一下，放松自己。
文章末尾作者呼吁大家“don’t forget to take a break and…yourself sometimes.”别忘了休息，偶尔放松自己。relax“放松”，符合语境。help“帮助”，hurt“伤害”，worry“担心”都不符合语境。
46．happily 47．the longest 48．while/and 49．its 50．nodded 51．interesting 52．length 53．important 54．as 55．protection
本文介绍了黄河、长江和尼罗河的基本信息，包括长度、历史意义，以及对古代文明的影响，最后呼吁人们保护这些大河。
46．Ella开心地分享这次旅行很棒，因为她看到了黄河上壮观的壶口瀑布。“shared”是动词，需要副词修饰，happy的副词形式是happily。
47．她想知道黄河是不是中国最长的河流。“in China”表示范围，形容词要用最高级，long的最高级是the longest。
48．他说长江约6300公里长，流程最远，而黄河5464公里长，是第二长的。此处表示对比或并列转折，用连词while/and。
49．Ella猜测是因为它的颜色。“colour”是名词，需要形容词性物主代词修饰，it的形容词性物主代词是its。
50．亚明点点头，补充说黄河携带黄色泥土，让它有了特别的外观。上下文描述过去发生的事，用一般过去时，nod的过去式是nodded。
51．Ella觉得这很有趣，并提到她对河流的喜爱，尤其是尼罗河。“find it + 形容词”结构中，修饰事物用interesting，表示“有趣的”。
52．亚明回答说他知道尼罗河长度为6671公里，是埃及历史的关键。“in length”是固定搭配，表示“在长度上”。
53．Ella指出这两条河都帮助古代文明发展，并且至今仍然重要。“remain”是系动词，后接形容词作表语，important用原形。
54．亚明分享说在中国，黄河被尊为“母亲河”。“be respected as”是固定搭配，表示“被尊为”。
55．最后，Ella说人们应该尽力保护这些伟大的河流。“provide sth. for sb.”结构中，protect的名词形式是protection，表示“保护”。
56．It lasted three days. 57．They got lost in the forest. 58．His friends. 59．He learned the importance of teamwork and perseverance. 60．I think the most important thing we can get from exploring nature is the ability to face difficulties bravely. When we explore nature, we may meet some problems, and we can learn to be calm and patient to solve them. It also helps us understand the beauty of our planet and learn to protect it.
本文通过分享两个青少年探索自然的亲身经历，说明了探索自然不仅是休闲娱乐，还能让人收获宝贵的成长经验，帮助我们成为更好的自己，同时也能加深我们对保护自然的认识。

57．第二段的第三句“On the second day, they got lost in the forest.”指出，露营第二天，丽莎和家人在森林里迷路了。
58．第三段的倒数第二句“But with the encouragement of his friends, he kept going and reached the top.”表明，鼓励Tom坚持爬山的是他的朋友们。
