Here are four festivals around the world that can offer you special and unique experiences.
Carnival of Oruro, Bolivia
As one of the largest events in South America which has been held since the 18th century, it was recognized
by UNESCO as a masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. Every year, dozens of groups wear
colorful costumes or masks and perform folk dances that draw crowds up to 400,000 annually, celebrating pre-
Columbian traditions.
Underwater Music Festival, the USA
It starts from 1985 and its founder took music festivals to a whole new level with the aim to protect the corals
(珊瑚). The event houses radio playlists and ocean-themed songs streaming live from underwater speakers along
with musician-divers and local people playing instruments with strange shapes.
Day of the Little Candles, Colombia
This festival can date back to 1854 and Colombia’s windows, balconies, and sidewalks would come alive on
the night of every December 7. And houses and streets are decorated with candles in varying colors and paper
lanterns by families. Many people also consider it the unofficial start of the Christmas season when cities and towns
debut (初次登场) their Christmas lights and decorations.
World Toe Wrestling Championship, England
This competition is not a new competition, with its history going back to 1976. The sport involves two
opponents who lock feet in an attempt to pin each other’s foot down in the least time possible, similar to arm
wrestling. There are three rounds played on a best of 2 out of 3 bases. Rounds kick-start with the right foot, then

When 16-year-old Jude first arrived in Australia to study in high school for a year and lived with a host family,
excitement filled her heart about everything new. Despite attending a one-day preparatory meeting as an exchange
student, culture shock was unavoidable.
In the first few weeks, known as “honeymoon stage I”, Jude felt joyful being in the new culture. But this
positive feeling didn’t stay. After around two months, she began to miss her friends and family deeply. Frustrating
thoughts crowded her mind: “Nobody really gets me, and my English is far from good. If only people could speak
German for a day! If only the public transportation worked like it does at home!” Clearly, she had entered
“honeymoon stage II”.
During the following months, Jude gradually and unconsciously stepped into the “adjustment stage”. She
formed her own daily routine, learned different ways to deal with stress, and made many new friends. Her English
improved significantly, and she understood Australian culture better. This was a huge personal breakthrough. Day
by day, she felt more at home in Australia. She picked up many new characteristics while still keeping some from
her home country. She even thought of herself as “having a second nationality”. This process in her last months
abroad is called the “mastery stage”. Her happiest moment came when a dear friend said during a chat, “You are
Australian now, Jude! You sound just like us!”
It’s important to note that the impacts of culture shock differ from person to person, leading to various
behaviors and feelings. Also, the time when each stage occurs varies greatly among individuals. One thing is
certain-culture shock is inescapable, and acceptance is the first key step to better adapt to a foreign culture.
4. Why did Jude attend a one-day preparatory meeting?
A. To learn about Australian culture in advance.
B. To avoid culture shock completely.
C. To make friends with other exchange students.
D. To prepare for her high school entrance exam.
5. What did Jude feel during “honeymoon stage II”?A. Happy and excited. B. Lonely and frustrated.
C. Confident and proud. D. Comfortable and relaxed.
6. What happened during Jude’s “adjustment stage”?
A. She refused to accept new things.
B. She had difficulty learning English.
C. She missed her home more than before.
D. She made progress in understanding Australian culture.
7. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Everyone experiences the same culture shock.
B. The “mastery stage” is the most difficult stage.
C. Culture shock can be avoided with good preparation.
D. Accepting culture shock helps adapt to a new culture.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. D
C
Playing soft classical music, such as lullabies, can help reduce pain in babies during medical tests, according
to a new study. At a hospital, doctors often give newborns sweet sugar water before performing a heel prick (足后
跟刺血), a common method to reduce pain. However, in this study, about half of the babies also listened to soft
classical music before, during, and after the procedure. The babies who heard music had lower pain scores
compared to those who only received sugar water.
Mallory Perry-Eaddy, a nurse studying children’s health, suggests that while sugar water helps, adding music
may be even more effective. This is important because babies do feel pain, possibly more strongly than adults. If
babies have painful tests without any help to feel better, it can affect their nervous system and make them more
sensitive to pain later in life.
Common procedures for newborns include heel pricks and shots. The heel prick is used to collect blood for
tests. Non-medicine methods like holding the baby close, breastfeeding, or giving sugar water are often used to
reduce pain.
Researchers at a medical center explored if music could be another simple and cost-effective way to help
babies. In the study, 100 babies were divided into two groups: one group listened to a piece called “Deep Sleep”
from a classical music album, starting 20 minutes before the heel prick and continuing for five minutes after. The
other group did not listen to music.
The music group had an average pain score of below 5 during the heel prick, while the non-music groupscored just under 7. After the test, both groups’ scores decreased, but the music group maintained lower scores.
Although more research is needed to determine the best methods for reducing pain in babies, it’s evident that
safe and effective methods are underused. This study aims to raise awareness about the importance of helping
babies manage pain, as some healthcare facilities still don’t think it’s a big problem.
8. What can help reduce pain in babies more effectively during medical tests?
A. Playing loud rock music. B. Giving newborns sugar water.
C. Playing soft classical music. D. Giving newborns a bath.
9. What can we infer from the passage about babies’ feeling of pain?
A. Babies don’t feel pain at all.
B. Babies might feel more pain than adults.
C. Babies feel pain less strongly than adults.
D. Babies only feel pain during medical tests.
10. What dose the underlined word “sensitive” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. easily affected B. not feeling anything
C. very strong D. not interested
11. What is the best title for this passage?
A. How to Give Babies Medical Tests
B. The Role of Sugar Water in Reducing Babies’ Pain
C. The Importance of Pain Management in Healthcare
D. Music: A Potential Solution for Babies’ Pain During Medical Tests
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
D
Have you ever watched a flock of birds flying in perfect formation and wondered if they’re communicating or
feeling anything? Or seen a wild fox carefully tending to its young and thought about the emotions it might
possess? The question of whether animals have emotions has aroused humans’ curiosity for centuries, and recent
research is shedding more light on this fascinating topic.
Scientists have been conducting various studies to explore animal emotions. For instance, elephants are known
to display behaviors that suggest deep emotions. When an elephant in a herd dies, the others often gather around the
body, touching it gently with their trunks, staying with it for hours or even days. This behavior is not just an
occasional action; it seems to indicate a sense of loss and sadness. Dolphins, too, show signs of strong social bonds
and emotions. They cooperate while hunting, support injured or sick members of the group, and engage in playfulactivities, which imply they experience positive feelings like joy and fellowship.
However, understanding animal emotions isn’t always simple. Different species express emotions in unique
ways, and what might seem like an emotional response in one species could have a different explanation in another.
Some critics argue that the behaviors we interpret as emotional are merely instinctive reactions to survival needs.
But as more in-depth research is carried out, using advanced technologies to study brain activity in animals, a
growing body of evidence suggests that many animals do indeed experience emotions.
This new understanding of animal emotions has significant implications. It challenges us to re-understand our
relationship with animals, especially in fields such as animal agriculture and wildlife tourism. If animals can feel
joy, pain, fear, and sadness, then how we treat them becomes an important ethical (伦理的) consideration. We may
need to adjust our practices to ensure that we respect their emotional well-being, just as we would for other
humans.
12. Which animals are mentioned to show sadness when a member of their group dies?
A. Birds B. Elephants C. Dolphins D. Foxes
13. What do scientists do to further study animal emotions?
A. Observe their daily activities.
B. Communicate with them directly.
C. Compare their behaviors with humans’.
D. Use advanced technologies to study brain activity.
14. What can we infer from the findings in the last two paragraphs?
A. It’s easy to understand the emotions of all different species.
B. All animals experience emotions in exactly the same way as humans.
C. The behaviors of animals are always caused by their survival needs.
D. Our current practices in animal agriculture may need to be improved.
15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The methods of studying animal emotions.
B. The unique ways animals express emotions.
C. The influence of understanding animal emotions.
D. The challenges in understanding animal emotions.

Dear Tom,
Knowing you’re curious about how I use AI to improve learning during summer vacation, I’m more than
delighted to share it with you.
With the intention of sharpening my English skills, I’m planning to turn to AI-driven language learning
platforms, which can provide me with customized courses and offer instant corrections and suggestions. When it

47. 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。
On a cold and windy day, Howard Kelly, a poor boy, was going from door to door, trying to sell things to pay
for his school. But he didn’t make any sales. Feeling very sad, he almost wanted to give up. Also, his stomach was
growling loudly because he hadn’t eaten for days. With no other option, he decided to ask for food at the next
house. He was a bit scared as he knocked on the door, not sure what to say.
When the door opened, a kind-looking young woman stood there. Howard got even more nervous. “Could…
could you give me a drink of water?” he asked, looking down at his feet.
The woman saw how thin and tired the boy was. She thought he needed something more than just water to feel
better, so she brought him a glass of milk instead. Howard held the cup with his small hands and drank the milkslowly. Then he asked, “How much do I have to pay you?”
The woman smiled kindly and said, “You don’t need to pay me anything. My mother always told me that we
should help others without asking for money in return.”
Howard was so touched. “Thank you so much!” he said with a big smile. As he walked away, he felt not only
stronger in his body but also more hopeful about people.
Many years passed. The kind young woman became very sick. The doctors in her small town couldn’t help
her, so they sent her to a big hospital in the city. There, many famous doctors would try to cure her. One of them
was Dr. Howard Kelly. When he heard where the sick woman came from, he remembered something important. He
quickly got up and rushed to her room.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150个左右；

【答案】Version 1:
Entering the room, Dr. Kelly saw the woman lying weakly on the bed. The instant he saw the pale face in the
hospital bed, the memory of her warm smile washed over him. Half shocked, half concerned, he determined to
bring her back to health and make her smile reappear. His urge to save the woman’s life drove him to make a
detailed plan for her operation. Fortunately, the operation went successfully. Weeks later, with her face ruddy, she
seemed to be in good condition. Before her discharge from the hospital, the woman asked for her bill.
The bill was sent to her room. Not a single number did she find on the bill, only a picture of a glass of milk.With a confused expression, she saw a doctor stepping into her room. “How much should I pay?” knowing it must
be loads of money, she dared not look directly into his eyes. “You needn’t pay for it. When I was young, one lady
told me never to accept pay for a kindness.” Stepping forward, he placed his arms around the woman’s shoulder,
with tears of happiness running down his face. Upon hearing that, it occurred to her suddenly that he was the very
boy who asked her for a drink of water.
Version 2:
Entering the room, Dr. Kelly saw the woman lying weakly on the bed. A wave of concern washed over him as
he approached. Initially failing to recognize the pale figure as the kind woman who once helped him, he focused on
checking her vital signs, his brow furrowed in concentration. But as he examined her face more closely, memories
flashed through his mind. His hands trembled slightly, realizing who she was. Determined to save her, he vowed to
use all his medical skills.
The bill was sent to her room. When she caught sight of the huge sum on the bill, her heart sank. A chill ran
down her spine, thinking she could never afford it. Tears welled up in her eyes, filled with despair. Just then, Dr.
Kelly walked in, holding the bill. Without a word, he tore it into small pieces, the sound of the paper ripping
echoing in the quiet room. “You paid for my kindness with that milk long ago,” he said, a gentle smile on his face,
“This is my way of showing my appreciation.” Overwhelmed with emotion, the woman burst into tears, her heart
filled with gratitude and warmth.
