This February and March, Beijing sees many excellent competitions on the ice and snow, but they don’t only belong to modern times. In fact, winter sports have a long history in China. Let’s take a look.
Neolithic period
During this period of time, people would hunt for food. To catch prey in the winter, our ancestors often used ice-skating. They tried different ways to improve speed and control.
Sui and Tang Dynasties
Many tribes in northern China mastered skiing at that time. According to Tianjin Daily, some people had two wooden boards tied to their feet. The wooden boards had a length of 5 chi and a width of 4 cun.They could prevent people falling into ditches and help them move faster.
Song Dynasty
Ice-skating became a form of recreation in Song Dynasty. In Mengxi Bitan, writer Shen Kuo also described a scene of people running and playing on the frozen ice.
Qing Dynasty
Winter sports reached new heights during the Qing Dynasty. In 1625, Nurhachi held a big ice game, which became the first ice game hosted by the government in China’s history. After the capital was moved to Beijing, winter sports games were also endowed with political significance. There were special government departments to organize events, maintain skates and train the skaters.

A yearbook is a type of a book published annually (每年), recording and remembering the past school year. Many schools publish yearbooks.
The first yearbooks appeared in the 1600s. They were only scrapbooks (剪贴薄), because photography was not really around until the 1820s. Since there were no pictures, people would fill the books with notes, articles, flowers, and even hair to remember events.
The first formal yearbook was published by Yale University in 1806.
Yearbooks are generally edited by a student club. The yearbook staff usually has one or more editors responsible for collecting and editing all of the information.
Most yearbooks include individual photographs of students and information on sports and other activities.
In the US, yearbooks often cover the whole school and not just the senior class. Senior photographs are usually larger than those of underclassmen and are sometimes attached by text about their achievements throughout high school and their future plans.
In the UK and other countries, yearbooks often only cover the final year group and not the entire school. Each student has more space for answers to different kinds of questions as well as their photos.
Today, yearbooks are also evolving. With the help of QR codes and websites, we are able to add videos and slideshows into the book for students to look back on recorded events. Many schools are simply dropping physical yearbooks and turning to digital yearbooks.

I had always wanted to be a bicyclist. It changed when I met Lizzie and her horse at twelve.
One afternoon, I saw Lizzie looking up at a life-sized sculpture horse.
“It needs a rider,” she turned to me. “Would you be the rider, Bonny?”
“I can’t.”
“You can ride bikes. It’s not that different. You’d just sit there. I’d sketch you, sculpt you.” Later, I tried to sit on the horse. It felt strange up there—much higher than on bikes.
I came every day after that. I looked forward to mixing up the plaster and holding it for Lizzie. I liked that. She was sculpting me up, little by little.
After a few days, work, I became the rider on the horse. It was me inside that skeleton.
When it was finished, I could hardly take my eyes off the magnificent horse and rider.
“Well,” said Lizzie. “What do you thin, Bonny?”
“I just wish I could make a sculpture,” I whispered, touching the neck of the horse.
“You did, Bonny,” she said. “Without your help, I couldn’t have done it. Do you want to make a sculpture yourself?”
“I can’t.”
“Of course you can. But you have to look around, really look. Draw what you see. Make what you’ve sketched. You can have a comer of my studio. How’s that?”
I followed her words and set to make my small sculpture, layer on layer. The more I did, the more I felt I belonged to this new world. With growing interest, I kept sculpting. ________.
Lizzie was working in the studio too. For minutes, a neck or leg would suddenly come to life. “When you do it, it’s like magic,” I said.
She replied, “No, Bonny. Not magic. It’s a given thing, a talent from who knows where, who knows who. But once you discover you have it, whatever it is, it’s not to be wasted. Life’s too short to waste it.”
Then came my summer holiday. I drew every day, boats, gulls and fishermen. I made sculptures with wet sand. My parents seemed surprised at my new interest. I never had such a perfect holiday.
Months later, a cardboard arrived to me in a post. It was of me sitting on the horse.
So here I am, twenty years on, working as a sculptor. As I look out from my sculpture studio window, I see Lizzie’s Horse and Rider and all around my sculptures are gathered.
Magic life, I think.
39.What did Lizzie ask Bonny to do?
A.To mix up her plaster. B.To be her sculpture’s rider.
C.To ride bikes with her. D.To have a look at her horse.
40.Which of the following sentences can be put into the ________ in the passage?
A.I felt afraid to show Lizzie my work B.I also started to have my own studio
C.I was able to sculpt better than Lizzie D.I was never happier with what I’d done
41.Why did Bonny keep Lizzie’s Horse and Rider for twenty years?
A.Because it reminded Bonny of her childhood.
B.Because it started Bonny’s career as a sculptor.
C.Because it encouraged Bonny to solve problems.
D.Because it taught Bonny the importance of practice.
42.Why did Bonny say she had a magic life? What did she learn from it?(请用约40词回答)

This year my mom lost her job, and I knew Christmas would be different. It had been just Mom and I for a long time, and we would be worse.
My best friend, Becky and I had gone to see The Nutcracker together every year before, but not this year. Going to the ballet was my favorite holiday tradition. I loved the dancing, the costumes, and especially the music. I worried that it wouldn’t feel like Christmas without The Nutcracker.
The week before Christmas, Mom and I went to Hauser Farm. We went there to find our Christmas tree every year. She pretended to check the tree for half an hour, but I knew she was checking the price tag.
“I don’t think they’re quite right,” Mom said. “How about skipping the tree this year?”
“Sure.” I smiled for Mom. She smiled back, but I could tell she was feeling bad.
The ballet was my favorite thing about Christmas, but the tree was my mom’s favorite. She loved pine—the deep green, the rich smell, and the sticky sap.
Christmas Eve arrived, and it was time for another tradition. Every year, we drove around to see Christmas light displays.
Mom went downstairs to the car first and she started the engine. As soon as I got into the car, I heard the opening overture from The Nutcracker.
“You got The Nutcracker music for me? For our drive?” I asked.
“Yes, I did.” she answered, grinning.
A light snow began to fall, and the lights seemed to shine extra brightly. The Nutcracker music made everything feel magical.
But for me, I also had a surprise for Mom! Before we went home, I directed Mom on and stopped the car just outside Hauser Farm.
“Sweetie,” Mom said, “①I don’t think there will be any trees left. Besides, we don’t have…”
“I know,” I said. “But I called Mr. Hauser, and he said this was OK.”
Finally, we stopped beside a field of new trees, next year’s Christmas trees. Outside the car, the air smelled of pine.
“②We don’t have just one tree this year, but we have a whole field.” I said.
Mom put her arm around me and kissed my forehead. “So, this is an evergreen Christmas for us. Thank you.”
③We opened the car windows and cranked up The Nutcracker. We walked and danced happily, looking and smelling and touching until our gloves were sticky with sap.
④We hugged each other tightly in the field. Tears filled our eyes…
43.How many traditions did the writer usually have for Christmas?
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
44.What did the writer’s mom do for her on Christmas Eve?
A.Her mom drove her to Hauser House. B.Her mom bought a big Christmas tree.
C.Her mom took her to the Nutcracker ballet. D.Her mom surprised her with The Nutcracker.
45.Which sentence in the passage has a similar meaning with “an evergreen Christmas”?
A.① B.② C.③ D.④

While I and my family are waiting to compete, my friend Tomeu comes. He and his family are also part of our team.
“What if I’m not ready for this, Tomeu?” I ask.
Tomeu smiles at me. “We are never ready, Jordi. None of us knows for sure how it’ll go. But you must have faith in the others. You must trust those below who lift you up, and you must trust yourself.” Tomeu pats me on the shoulder. “Have faith. Have focus.”
Soon, too soon, it is our turn. Father and three of the strongest men stand in a circle and hold tightly to each other’s arms. Four smaller men climb up to stand on their shoulders, creating a strong second level. Our tower is growing taller and taller. Next, my mother helps form the fifth level.

But when I reach the fifth level, my knees start to tremble, for I’m very high off the ground. I place my foot into the waist belt of my mother and try to stand, but my foot slips off the belt, and the tower below me moves a bit. My heart begins a crazy dance.
“Tranquil. Easy.” My mother whispers. I take a deep breath to calm myself and again place my foot into her belt. I push myself to a stand and step onto her shoulders. With focus and trust, I straighten my knees slowly until I’m standing. Below me, I feel my mother’s strength. Opposite me, Tomeu has also come to a stand on his mother’s shoulders. He and I hold each other’s arms, making a strong sixth level.
I turn my face up to the sun and laugh, for I am no longer frightened. Soon, I feel my sister’s hands on my feet. I work hard to hold myself straight and strong for her. Once she climbs onto my shoulders. our tower is complete.

Dad and Madison were walking through the party store, gathering some flags and balloons for Madison’s upcoming birthday party.
“But I don’t want to invite Lucy Gilbert! She isn’t a girl I am fond of!”
“Madison, you are being unreasonable. If every girl in your class is invited to a party but you, you’ll feel left out. It would be a big mistake to not invite Lucy to the party.”
“She never talks to me!”
Dad sighed and moved down the aisle. “Lucy is a new girl in class. She doesn’t know one single person in the school. Your party will be a great chance for her to get to know everyone.”
“No, it won’t. She will probably sit in the corner and not talk to anyone. Every day at lunch she sits all by herself. She wants to eat alone!” Madison shrugged and rolled her eyes.
“Madison, I’m done discussing this. You will invite every girl in your class, including Lucy Gilbert!”
On Saturday morning, the family blew up balloons, hung them and the flags, decorating the house cheerfully. Madison was dressed beautifully for the day, wearing her new blue dress. It was not typical of her to dress herself like this. She usually wore sports clothes because she loved to be outside riding her horse Star with a lead rope.
Madison greeted her friends in the doorway, picturing various presents her friends would bring her. In the meanwhile, she was wondering whether Lucy would ruin the party if she came. Anyhow, all the girls she invited came finally, including Lucy.
The girls had a fantastic time by singing and dancing while Lucy sat in the comer silently alone. Later, all the girls gathered around the table as Madison opened her presents. Opening them one by one, Madison thanked her friends, with a bright smile on her face.
Lucy’s present was the very last to be opened. Inside the box was a hand-made lead rope. Shocked, she looked up at Lucy.
“It’s a lead rope for your horse Star. I made it myself!”
Madison pulled it out of the box and placed it on her lap, amazed at its beauty.
Lucy added, “I heard you talking about your horse at school. That’s when I got the idea to make you a lead rope.”
▲ It was, by far, her very favorite birthday present of the day. With mixed feelings, Madison tried hard to fight the tears building in her eyes.
“Thanks so much for this lead rope. I love it! Would you like to join us and be our friends?”
Lucy nodded cheerfully and joined the other girls to enjoy the party.
51.What did Dad and Madison do for the birthday party?
A.They prepared gifts. B.They bought sports clothes.
C.They shopped for decorations. D.They discussed birthday food.
52.Why didn’t Madison want to invite Lucy to her party?
A.Madison had a fight with Lucy. B.Lucy behaved rudely at school.
C.Lucy was a new student in class. D.Madison disliked Lucy’s personality.
53.Which of the following can be put in ▲ ?
A.Madison realized friendship was the greatest pleasure in life.
B.Madison picked up the present and opened the gift wrap paper.
C.Deeply moved by what she said, Madison held the lead rope tightly.
D.Madison got to know that it was wise of Dad to ask her to invite Lucy
54.What were the mixed feelings of Madison after she heard Lucy’s words? Why? (请用约40词回答)

I have been a teacher all my life, and I want to be an English teacher again in my next time.
——Chen Lin
A master of English education in China, Chen Lin just celebrated his 100th birthday in April. 1
In 1950, Chen started teaching at Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU). 2 He always put importance on “standing up” and “speaking up” in his classes. He always stood to teach and talked loudly. When class was over, he would “shut up” at once.
3 Li Jinzhao, one of Chen’s students and a teacher at BFSU now, said Chen likes role-playing and singing to make the class active. It was different from the “teacher speaks, students listen” style of the time. He also encouraged students to speak more and practice more.
In 1999, Chen led experts to make English curriculum standards (新课程标准). Before that, English teaching goals from primary school to university didn’t connect well with each other. But the standards changed it. Then, English education worked like “one package (一条龙)”. 4
After leaving his job, Chen keeps on working. He reads and writes about how to improve English teaching.
A.Chen’s good teaching “impressed (使印象深刻) students”
B.He was known as the “Professor of Three Ups”
C.Chen has spent his whole life on English education
D.He managed to make his class lively and interesting
E. He also wrote the first set of textbooks to carry out the new standards
55.________
56.________
57.________
58.________

These activities encourage children to read their favourite books. Many libraries, writers, and booksellers also take part in World Book Day.
It is important that children enjoy reading. Reading for pleasure can help children to achieve well at school by improving their reading skills and their vocabulary. When children read different kinds of texts, they also improve their general knowledge and problem-solving skills. Reading can also help with friendship skills by allowing children to better understand other people’s thoughts and feelings.
It can sometimes be difficult to find a book that interests you. Here are some top tips to help you to choose your next read:
. Read the description on the back of the book. This will tell you more about what the book is about.
. Think about your favourite topics. Try reading a book about something or someone that interests you. This could be a fact book or a magazine.
. Visit your local library. Borrowing a book is free for children and the librarians there can often provide some helpful advice.
. Try something new. It is often easier to stick to what we know we like. However, we may find a book or author that we love if we try something different.
Happy World Book Day

15.(2022·浙江温州·统考一模)At a clinic in Waterloo, Ontario, an elderly woman sat on the edge of a waiting room chair singing My Heart Will Go on, a song from the movie Titanic.
I had fun watching how people reacted. They turned around and tried to pretend there was nothing out of the ordinary.
I was there with my father when the woman arrived. She sat directly across from my dad, smiling at him. He smiled back.
I was interested in how he would react to the woman who suddenly got into his space. He was 77 at the time and had been living with Alzheimer’s for several years. When he was healthy, he tolerated people’s strange behaviors, even though he considered it wholly bad mannered. Since Alzheimer’s takes his patience away slowly, I couldn’t help thinking that the woman was playing with fire.
Her singing began softly, like a quiet hum. I glanced over at Dad. His smile was gone, and he was staring right at her. She was staring back. I couldn’t read his expression, but it seemed to be something like confusion. This wasn’t an unusual state for him, and I wondered whether he was actually seeing her at all or if he was lost somewhere deep in his mind. Or maybe he was trying to tell whether this was someone he should know.
Her singing slowly got louder. By the time she got to “Near, far, wherever you are... ” , this woman was lost deeply in her own singing with eyes closed.
I tried not to laugh. Anyway, serious Dad being serenaded in a packed waiting room was just too delicious. Still, I watched if there would be an outburst of anger. Instead, his face softened. He looked no longer confused.
People say that Alzheimer’s is a thief, that it steals your loved ones slowly, day by day. But certain experiences with my dad have allowed me to see a side of him that I never knew. I will keep those moments when he told me tender stories about his childhood or tales of his service in the army, as if he knew that he didn’t have much time left to show me who he really was. In an unexpected way, that’s what happened for me that day in the clinic. And I finally knew who he really was.
When her song ended and the waiting room became silent, the woman opened her eyes. My dad was still looking directly at her.
“That was beautiful.” he said.
And she smiled and said, “Thank you.”
70.The underlined word “tolerated” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.
A.followed B.accepted C.supported D.stopped
71.How did Dad react when the singing became louder?
A.He turned around and kept silent. B.He smiled at the woman politely.
C.He seemed to know the woman. D.He looked at the woman directly.
72.Dad may probably say “That was beautiful” in a(n) ________ voice.
A.strange B.angry C.kind D.serious
73.Why did the writer say he finally knew who his father really was? (请用约30词回答)

The game of Go is not only a competitive event of the mind, but also a board game of amusement.
Created in China more than four thousand years ago, Go was introduced to Korea and Japan over 1,000 years ago. Since then, it has become a favorite activity of many people there. Today, Go still serves as a way of cultural exchange among the people in many Eastern and Western countries. 1
The game of Go is sometimes like real life. There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total. While the board is fixed, the pieces can be placed in millions upon millions of different ways, just as life in the real world may take many turns. 2
Go pays much attention to peaceful competition and coexistence(共存). In a game of Go, the players do not wipe out(消灭) each other’s pieces. Instead, they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side to have some space. 3
Wu Qingyuan (1914-2014), a modern Go talent, believed that the final purpose of the game was to try to achieve peace. Instead of fighting as enemies, the two players work together to play an excellent game.
A.Many players in these countries take part in many international games every year.
B.The game of Go was one of the four greatest artistic(艺术的)types in Chinese culture.
C.The proper place of each tiny piece is similar to how one might solve a difficult problem in life.

Listening in class is not like listening to TV programs, listening to a friend, or even listening to a speaker at a meeting. The difference, of course, is that what is said in class is helpful to your success in the class. Knowing how to listen can help you get more out of what you hear, understand better what you have heard, and save your time in the process.
Here are five strategies (策略) that will help you be a more effective (有效的) listener in class:
Be ready for the message.
Prepare yourself to hear, to listen, and to receive the message.
________
Even if you are an expert on the topic, you can still learn something new. Supposing you have already heard all this before means that your mind will be closed to any new information.
________
Hearing sounds is not the same as hearing the intended message. Listening involves hearing what the speaker wants you to receive, to understand, and to learn.
________
Decide whether you think what you have heard is useful. Reflect on the new information.
________
If you did not hear or understand what was said, raise your hand! Now it is the time to clarify things. Typically, one student will ask a question that many students in the room are wondering about.
A.Ask questions.
B.Think twice.
C.Really hear what is said.
D.Take as many notes as possible
E. Listen for new ideas.
