Way back in my high school years, mathematics looked like a big problem for me and several of my classmates. The situation didn't take a turn for the 16 until we entered the 9th grade.
With the arrival of the new term, we got Mr Iyer, a(n) 17 maths teacher as well as our class teacher, who always stuck to his rule. We had to arrive on time, pay undivided attention to what he said, and of course, none of us dared(敢) to 18 any of his homework. Even so, as our leader, we got to know him bit by bit.
One day, as the mid-term exams came near, Mr Iyer 19 some of us moving restlessly in class. He stopped solving a mathematical problem to ask us 20 we behaved like that. "There's too much to do," we sighed(叹息). "We're afraid we'll never 21 to finish our review before the exams."
" 22 is impossible, "Mr Iyer told us. "This classroom is on the second floor. Do you have a problem 23 here?"
Reacting with blank stares, we sat 24 . "Is this about learning?" I thought to myself, and it seemed probably that everyone had such a big doubt.
Without waiting for a reply, Mr Iyer answered his own question. "No, you don't!" he said decisively. "You have stairs to help you climb up to this level. No one 25 you to make it in two giant leaps. You just need to take one step at a time. Any task can be solved if you think twice about the 26 action that will be taken. The rest will take care of itself, if you keep at it. One step at a time. That's the 27 ."
Then, he wrote down an old motto on the blackboard: "The longest journey starts with a 28 step." Having heard his staircase analogy(比拟), we saw him in a new light.
Thanks to such encouraging 29 most of my classmates got excellent grades in maths. And I went on to become an English teacher. To this day, whenever I 30 the valuable lesson to my own students, they cheer up at the view of a lighter academic burden(学业负担).

A
Tall buildings, criss-crossed roads, huge crowds...When we talk about cities, such words might come to mind. However, cities can be different. They can be sweet homes for both people and animals. Here are three exciting and creative examples.

Vertical forests in Milan
In the centre of Milan city, there are "vertical(垂直的) forests"! Green plants cover two tall buildings. One is 110 metres tall, while the other is 76 metres. The area these plants cover is the same as 30,000 square metres of woodland. The forests opened in 2014.
What makes the forests? The answer is 800 trees, 15,000 ground-cover plants and 5,000 shrubs. People plant them in big tubs on large balconies. They attract 1,600 kinds of birds and butterflies. Gardeners often trim the plants in order that people can see clearly out of the windows with them.

Wuhan, the "sponge city"
Sponge(海绵) absorbs water. "Sponge city" absorbs rainwater.
In 2015, Wuhan started to build a "sponge city", one of the first cities to do so in China. In the city, water can pass through the pavements(人行道). There are also gardens, ponds and wetlands all over the city. When it rains, they can absorb water. So there will be less flooding. By the end of last year, 20 percent of the city's area reached the standard of a "sponge city" In 2030, the area will reach 80 percent.

Living with caracals
in Cape Town
Caracals live in many nature reserves, gardens and vineyards in Cape Town, South Africa. They are the last large predator(食肉动物) there. However, they live in danger. As much as 70 percent of their deaths are because they get hit by cars.
To save caracals, people started a project. They catch and mark the cats, and give the cats radio collars to tell where they go. After locating roadkill places, people invite an artist to make artworks and put them nearby. The art helps people remember to drive slowly and take care of the cats. There are also caracal road signs. All of these have caught the interest of people in Cape Town.
31. What can we learn from the passage?
A. There are about 800 kinds of trees in vertical forests in Milan.
B. Vertical forests in Milan grow on balconies of two tall buildings.
C. Wuhan is the first city to become a "sponge city" in the world.
D. The area of the "sponge city" will become much larger in2030.

a. Send caracals back to nature reserves. b. Put caracal road signs near roadkill places.
c. Make caracals wear the radio collars. d. Invite drivers to make artworks about caracals.
A. ab B. cd C. ac D. bc
33. The passage is mainly written to tell us that ______.
A. cities are always full of people and animals
B. some cities are dangerous places for animals
C. there are ways to make cities more nature-friendly
D. flooding is a big problem for some cities in China
B
"Welcome to China!"
This simple greeting from volunteer Sun Zeyu warmed the heart of US snowboarder Tessa Maud at the Olympics opening ceremony(开幕式). "That guy who has said 'Welcome to China' literally just makes me tear up every time because they [volunteers] are so nice. We feel so welcomed," said Maud in the video she shared on TikTok.
Sun, a junior student from Tsinghua University, is an example of how Generation Z (people born between 1995 and 2010) promoted(促进) cultural and people-to-people exchanges at the Beijing Winter Games. Active and open-minded, they bridge gaps in their own ways. Their pleasant personalities, global vision and new-age thinking made the Games even more fantastic.
① Gen Z athletes shared their China travels on social media(媒体). Some became big fans of Chinese food. Maud shared what she ate every day on TikTok——fried rice, Kung Pao chicken and Peking duck. What to eat each day was a hard choice for her. "Everything is so good," she said.
② Jenise Spiteri is a snowboarder from Malta. She became known as the "red bean bun girl" in China after she took a big bite while waiting for her score. "Goodbye to the amazing workers who supplied our food every day," she wrote on social media when she left the Olympic Village. In the picture, she holds a big red bean bun.
③ Alexandra Pozhidaeva is a Russian international student from Peking University. As a performer(表演者) at the opening ceremony, she had a heart-warming moment with the young people of her age. When the stadium was very cold, they lent their gloves. She said it was touching as they didn't know each other.
④ Another volunteer, Yang Jinhe, l8, started to work on COVID-related matters in mid-December. He also worked at the Paralympic Games. Back in 2008, he was impressed by the song You and Me. Now he said he really understands the meaning of "you and me" as well as the Olympic spirit of togetherness.
"Even though the pandemic is going on, we are standing here [at Beijing2022]," he said on the show Youth Power.

Have you ever been bored and decided to check social media, only to find out that your best friend was at Disneyland, that one of your classmates was eating delicious pizza at your favourite pizza store, or that one of your soccer teammates was climbing the Eiffel Tower in Paris? Have you ever had that feeling that others were experiencing things and enjoying life more than you were? Oh man! You were really missing out! At least that's what you might think. Researchers call that feeling FOMO——the fear of missing out.
Over 75% of young people report feelings about FOMO from time to time. It's so easy today to see what your friends are doing, eating, buying or talking about from the social media. Unluckily, we have only so much time in the day and only so much money to spend on food or entertainment. It would be impossible to enjoy all the same activities we see others take part in on social media.
Rather than realizing this basic truth, though, we usually let FOMO lead us to compare our lives with those of others on social media. This certainly leaves us feeling dissatisfied. Why? We know all the sides of our lives——both good and bad. But all we see on social media are the picture-perfect moments others shared.
As Theodore Roosevelt famously said, "Comparison is the thief of joy." FOMO makes us check social media more often, leading to addiction(瘾) and a negative(消极的) cycle that can be hard to break. Researchers have found that social media and FOMO can cause serious negative results, including feelings of depression, loneliness and boredom.
So how do we break the cycle and avoid FOMO? Researchers suggest that we stop looking to social media for happiness. Instead, we should focus our attention on our real lives, including the people around us and all the things we're grateful for.
38. The two questions in Paragraph 1 show that social media may ______.
A. influence our choices B. keep people connected
C. lead to unhappiness D. make our lives interesting
39. What do we know about FOMO from the passage?
A. It helps people become more well-known online.
B. It makes people pay close attention to others' lives.
C. It causes people to worry about the changing world.
D. It encourages people to share more on social media.
40. What does the underlined word "This" in the third paragraph refer to?
A. Comparing our lives with others'.
B. Knowing all the sides of our lives.
C. Realizing the basic truth about FOMO.
D. Sharing the picture-perfect moments.
41. What do the researchers advise us to do according to the passage?
A. Try to do what we love.
B. Take an active part in social activities.
C. Value what we have got.
D. Learn to make a reasonable comparison.
D

By now the dragon realized that my father was coming to rescue him. He ran out of the bushes and jumped up and down, shouting, "I'm right here! Can you see me? Hurry! The wild pig is coming over on the crocodiles, too. They're all coming over! Oh, please, hurry!" The noise was simply excellent.
My father ran up to the dragon, and took out his very sharp jackknife. "Watch out, old boy! We'll make it. Just stand still," he told the dragon as he began to cut through the big rope.
By this time both wild pigs, all seven tigers, the two lions, the gorilla and the rhinos, along with the countless monkeys, were all on their way across the crocodiles and there was still a lot of rope to cut through.
"Oh, hurry," the dragon kept saying, and my father again told him to stand still.
"If I don't think I can make it," said my father, "we'll fly over to the other side of the river and I can finish cutting the rope there."
Suddenly the scream grew louder and madder, and my father thought the animals must have crossed the river. He looked around and saw something that made him surprised and delighted. Partly because he had finished his lollipop(棒棒糖), and partly because, as I told you before, crocodiles are very changeable and not dependable at all and are always looking for something to eat, the first crocodile had turned away from the bank and started swimming down the river. The second crocodile hadn't finished yet, so he followed right the first, still sucking(吮吸) his lollipop. All the rest did the same thing. The two wild pigs, the seven tigers, the rhinos, the two lions, the gorilla, along with the countless monkeys, were all riding down the middle of the river on the train of crocodiles sucking pink lollipops, and all were screaming and getting their feet wet.
My father and the dragon laughed because it was such a silly sight. As soon as they had recovered, my father finished cutting the rope and the dragon raced around in circles and tried to turn a somersault(跟头). My father was in a hurry to fly away, and when the dragon finally calmed down a bit my father climbed up onto his back.
"All aboard!" said the dragon. "Where shall we go?"
"We'll spend the night on the beach, and tomorrow we'll start on the long journey home. So, we'll leave the shore of Tangerina!" shouted my father as the dragon rose above the dark forest and the muddy river and all the animals shouting at them and all the crocodiles sucking pink lollipops.
As my father and the dragon passed over the Ocean Rocks, they heard a tiny excited voice scream. "Bum cack! I mean, we need our dragon!"
But my father and the dragon knew that nothing in the world would ever make them go back to Wild Island.
42. How did "my father" rescue the dragon?
A. He stood still with the dragon and waited for others' help.
B. He flew over to the other side of the river with the dragon.
C. He asked the animals to let the dragon go by giving lollipops.
D. He cut through the rope which was tied around the dragon.
43. The meaning of the underlined word "delighted" is the closest to ______.
A. pleased B. scared C. relaxed D. worried
44. What can we know according to the end of the passage?
A. "My father" would return home on the dragon's back.
B. "My father" flew back to Wild Island with the dragon.
C. "My father" and the dragon left Tangerina in the night.
D. "My father" asked the dragon to land on the Ocean Rocks.
45. Which of the following can best describe "my father"?
A. Polite and generous. B. Brave and wise.
C. Modest and creative. D. Kind and honest.

When talking about livestreaming, you might think of makeup vloggers and movie stars. But Zeng Qinghuan, a 30-year-old from Xinhua County in Loudi, Hunan, has turned her whole village into a livestreaming room, using e-commerce to help her people live a better life.
Known as "Xiangmei Xinbao" on Douyin, Zeng now has more than 3 million followers and almost 40 million "likes". During the past two years, she has posted about 370 short videos showing the culture and life of people in her hometown. Through livestreaming, she has sold more than 100 million yuan worth of local agricultural products, like fermented tofu(腐乳), preserved pork and dried sweet potatoes.
Zeng used to study fashion design and work in big cities. She returned to her village to care for her sick grandmother, but later found that she could also build a career there. "I'm a daughter of the great mountains. I can also be a contributor to rural development in this new era(时代)," she said.
Rural revitalization(振兴) is a key part of China's14th Five-Year Plan(2021-2025). In June 2021, a law took effect to promote it as a national strategy, including attracting talent and protecting the natural environment.
Zeng hopes her experience can encourage more young people to return to their rural hometowns and make a difference. In2021,after she became a deputy(代表) of the Loudi Municipal People's congress(市人民代表大会), she put forward a proposal(建议) called "each village has one product and one livestreaming host of its own". She plans to help train100 social media influencers(网红) for her county within three years, and now two villages have taken part in the project.
"Soon the rural areas will become a big stage, and being a farmer will be seen as a decent(体面的) job, too," said Zeng.
