Four of the Most Magical Movies from Your Childhood
Whether it was the enchanting characters, the memorable scenes or simply because it was the first film mum
or dad took you to, these are the movies that have felt the most lasting impressions over the decades.
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory
“I loved it for two reasons. First, it showed a wonderful, loving extended family. I was fascinated by their kitchen
setting and the little corner where the boy Charlie slept. Second, inside the chocolate factory was what all children
dreamed of. The whole movie transported me from my childhood worries into a fairyland world.” —Margaret
McKee
Dumbo
“For a kid who often felt like he didn’t fit in, and wasn’t good at anything, it was magical to see Dumbo
discover his talent and become loved and celebrated.” —Lorraine Cormack
“I loved Dumbo as it showed those who are bullied can win if they believe they can.” — Mary Madigan
The Never Ending Story
“It has to be the most magical movie from my era. The story has everything a young kid can ask for: a great story, a
mythical flying dog and an interesting ending. Our family continue to watch it today.” —Aaron Elliott
The Sound of Music
“When I was young, movies were a treat, with lollies, friends and a canvas seat. There was a special one that
I did adore, and many times I’ve gone back for more. The songs, the scenery and the storyline always transport me
to another time. It is such a classic that my memories of it are so fantastic.” —Joanne Carter

I decided to ski to the North Pole.It was after I met with an advertisement in a newspaper looking for people
to join a team to ski 350 miles to the North Pole.Back in 1996,there had never been a woman from the UK who had
accomplished this challenge.I wondered what it would be like to survive in temperatures cold enough to freeze your
flesh in seconds,so I sent off the application form.
The application form full of pictures of male explorers arrived.The words “Are you man enough for the
ultimate(极限的) challenge?” made me angry and even more determined to join the team.
Over 500 individuals applied for a place in the team,and the selection process included physical and
psychological tests designed to pick the best group.In one test,there was a huge rope ladder we had to climb,and I
froze at the top because I have a fear of heights.I thought my hopes were fading as most other applicants sailed
past,leaving me behind.But two others helped me over,and later I found out that the organizers were not looking for
amazing individuals,but great team players,and this moment had shown them who would take care of others in the
team.
I had revealed my weakness,and in a place like the Arctic,you have to be yourself,as there is nowhere to
hide.These personalities of seeking for help and showing weakness are necessary for women to master.
I realized that by being myself,I could succeed.I was eventually selected for the team.I got to be aware that I
could achieve more than I ever imagined—more importantly,by sharing my story with others,I could inspire them
to take a step into the new world and reveal more of their abilities.

A.She got angry. B.She was determined.
C.She got frightened. D.She was uninterested.
25.What did the organizers view as the most important in the selection of new hands?
A.Personality. B.Individual ability.
C.Spirit of teamwork. D.Courage to challenge.
26.What does the author think of women’s showing weakness?
A.Beneficial. B.Shameful.
C.Pitiful. D.Disturbing.
27.What’s the intention of the author in writing this passage?
A.To inspire us to prepare for our future goal.
B.To advise women to turn to others.
C.To make suggestions to her team members.
D.To encourage people to explore the unknown.

Spending time outdoors has long been linked (联系) to better health. Gardening goes beyond just beautifying
outdoor spaces—it can have a deep effect on our physical and mental (身心上的) health.
学学科科网网((北北京京))股股份份有有限限公公司司Gardening involves physical activity that works all the main muscle (肌肉) groups, which is helpful for
overall health. “Activities such as digging, planting, weeding and harvesting require movement and can help to
improve strength,” said Clayton, CEO of an online lawn care company. “Performing these activities regularly can
help burn calories, and keep a healthy weight.”
Beyond burning calories and building muscle, lots of studies have shown that gardening can improve the
immune system (免疫系统). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that people get at
least 150 minutes of exercise each week, and gardening is listed as a suitable activity. Doing garden work for that
time each week can reduce the risk of obesity, high blood pressure and heart disease. Additionally, spending time
outdoors makes us get close to natural sunlight, which is important for vitamin D synth.
Gardening provides a chance for social connection, too. It can be a shared activity among family members,
friends or neighbors, building relationships and a sense of belonging.
Gardening also offers cognitive (认知的) benefits. It excites the senses, improves focus and encourages
problem-solving and creativity. It provides a chance to learn about plants, ecosystems and the environment,
developing a deeper understanding and appreciation for nature.
28.What is Clayton’s attitude towards gardening?
A.Supportive. B.Doubtful. C.Unclear D.Uncaring.
29.What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about gardening?
A.It improves focus. B.It is a waste of time.
C.It can keep a body in shape. D.It helps to reduce the risk of diseases.
30.How does gardening affect social connection according to the text?
A.It contributes to creativity. B.It encourages problem-solving.
C.It builds relationships between people. D.It improves people’s awareness of safety.
31.What is the best title for the text?
A.How to Start a Garden B.Choose a Garden or Not
C.What Plants Grow Best in a Garden D.Start Gardening and Get the Health Benefits
D
The farms of the future may look very different from that of today. That’s because farms do not have to be
outside anymore. They also won’t have to be above ground. In London, 100 feet below the streets there was a huge
empty space. Richard Ballard and Steven Dring, founders of the company Growing Underground, thought it would
be an ideal spot to build a hydroponic (水栽的) farm. After all, these types of farms are doing well in other indoor
spaces.
Founded in 2015, Growing Underground’s farm grows microgreens and salad leaves using hydroponic
technology that grows plants in water but not soil. In fact, the company said that its hydroponic technology allows
for the perfect pest-free growing environment.
These methods use about 70 percent water less than traditional field agriculture and all the nutrients are kept
within a closed circle system. They can grow the greens all year round because they are not affected by weather or
growing seasons.
学学科科网网((北北京京))股股份份有有限限公公司司But it is the LED lighting system that is the key to growing food underground. Ballard said, “Already, LEDs
allow the growers to change the flavor of the greens, as their sugars and starches develop differently under different
light spectrums (光谱).”
Right now, the company only sells greens with a lot of leaves because they are the only crops that grow fast
enough to be economically feasible but Ballard believes that will change. “As technologies improve, you’ll see soft
fruits, cucumbers, peppers,” he said.
The company’s goal is to keep food local. They say that all of the greens can be in your kitchen within four
hours of being picked. They currently sell to local restaurants in London, but they hope to be entering the local
groceries soon.
32.What makes the underground farm possible?
A.The rich soil. B.The great demand for fruits.
C.The hydroponic technology. D.The good weather condition.
33.What is the function of the LED lighting system?
A.To get rid of pests. B.To increase the temperature of underground farm.
C.To allow greens to grow rapidly. D.To provide various light spectrums.
34.What does the underlined word “feasible” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Difficult. B.Challenged.
C.Impossible. D.Achievable.
35.What does the company expect of the underground farm?
A.It’ll benefit more customers. B.It’ll be environment-friendly.
C.It’ll keep food fresher for longer. D.It’ll use the latest technology.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Looking over the top of the book, I glanced across at the new girl named Rochelle. She only joined our class
at the beginning of the week. It must be hard starting a new school in the middle of the year.
At last, the bell went for the end of the day. I spotted Rochelle running towards a tall woman who must be
her mum. Then I saw a surprising thing. Rochelle’s mum was waving her arms round and making shapes with her
fingers, and Rochelle was doing the same with hers. It was like they were talking to each other with their hands.
Oh, could her mother be deaf? My mind was filled with questions.
The next day, I was reading this week’s words when I felt a tap (轻拍) on my shoulder. I looked up and
Rochelle was standing in front of me. “Shall we test each other?” she asked, pointing to my spelling book.
“Yes, of course,” I replied. But I was still wondering how to ask the questions that had been tumbling (翻腾)
around in my head since yesterday.
“So, um, that hand thing you did with your mum…”
“Signing.”
“Yeah, signing. Is it because she’s, um, deaf?”
“Yes, both my parents are deaf, so I communicate with them through sign.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. That must be really difficult.” I could tell by the frown on Rochelle’s face that I’d said
something wrong, but I didn’t know what. “So, did your parents need someone to help them look after you when
you were a baby?”
“Of course not,” Rochelle got annoyed. “Why would being deaf mean they can’t look after me? Being deaf
doesn’t mean they’re stupid,” she was almost shouting. “In fact, they’re much cleverer than most people I know.”
Hearing that, I got bet all over. I didn’t say her parents were stupid. But before I could explain, the bell went and
she strode (阔步行走) out of the classroom. I hurried after her, but when I tried to speak to her, she kept her back to
me as if I were her enemy.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After school, I saw Rochelle and her mother moving their hands quickly.
