For children, space is magical — a whole world is out there, with so many things to learn and stories to read. Here
are some children’s books about space and the solar system.
Mae among the Stars by Stasia Burrington
This beautifully illustrated picture book is attractive to young kids. It was inspired by the first African American
woman in space, Mae Jemison. It tells the story of Mae as a little girl, who always knew she had big dreams about space.
This is a great addition to a young kid’s collection, as a reminder to hold tight to dreams and never give up.
Space by Libby Jackson
This beautifully illustrated book gives kids a look at 50 women from around the world who were involved in
exploring space in some way, from the 19th century to the present day. This is a perfect gift for young kids who want to

Chasing Space by Leland Melvin
This is Melvin’s story about being a football player-turned-astronaut, along with his recovery from an injury that
nearly left him deaf. Kids will love reading his story about how he faced challenges and advanced ahead, and he also
includes DIY experiments for kids to try, and a section of full-color photographs.
System and Beyond by David A．Aguilar
The book is full of beautiful illustrations of space, and is perfect for kids of all ages, exploring various planets and the
solar system. Unlike other kids’ space book, this is a National Geographic book written and illustrated by an award-winning
astronomer and space artist. Aguilar is also the former Director of Science Information and Public Outreach at the Harvard-

A recent survey has shown that more men are adopting cats than women in recent years.
People used to think cats are preferred by women, and dogs are the trusty friends of men. However, a new research
from UK Pet Food uncovered an obvious gender (性别) difference in pet adoption numbers — with more men choosing to
adopt adult cats than women. Over the past four years, 1.5 million new male households have been benefiting from the
company of an adult cat, compared to around 1 million female households.
The research findings highlight the function of the bond that can exist between a man and his furry friend. Although
you may be fond of kittens with their playful and innocent nature, there’s a convincing reason to adopt an adult cat,
especially for men seeking a loyal and entertaining companion. Unlike the troublesome process of raising a kitten, adult cats
come with their personalities fully formed. This means that from day one, you can enjoy the companionship of a furry
friend that has already settled into their characters and behaviors.
For men with busy schedules or limited time for pet training, an adult cat provides instant companionship without the
demanding needs of a young kitten. They’re already litter-trained and accustomed to basic grooming routines, making them
an ideal choice for busy men.
Michael Bellingham, Chief Executive of UK Pet Food said: “I was interested to see that more men are adopting older
cats. Our research this year highlights the profound impact of pets — from fighting with loneliness to having a positive
effect on our mental health. We were surprised to see that one fifth of the people with mental illness we interviewed want
pets to be included in prescriptions, which can help treat their problems.”
So, for men considering bringing a furry companion into their life, adopting an adult cat might just be the perfect

24．What can we know about the new research in paragraph 2?
A．Compared to women, men prefers to adopt adult cats.
B．Dogs are man’s most loyal friends of all time.
C．Women are fond of being surrounded by lovely cats.
D．Millions of households gain benefits from protecting pets.
25．What’s the reason for man to choose adult cats?
A．They have the potential to care for their owners.
B．They are innocent and loyal to the caring adults.
C．They have fully developed personalities.
D．They are a cure for rare diseases.
26．What can be inferred from Michael Bellingham’s words?
A．Adult cats are the best option of pets for UK family.
B．Pets have a good impact on people’s mental health.
C．Adult cats demand less company from their busy owners.
D．Cats are a priceless drug for physical problems in UK.
27．Which of the following phrases can replace “prescription” in paragraph 5?
A．Job interviews. B．Text books. C．Personal preference.D．Medical guidance.

After noticing that her students had problems focusing during the math class, a North Carolina teacher decided to
channel (引导) their energy in a different way-cycling.
It doesn’t sound like a common thing to do during the math class, but Bethany Lambeth, a teacher from Wake
County, said that ever since she installed (安装) cycling machines under her students’ desks, the quality of their work had
improved greatly. Students are more focused and more importantly, they are no longer restless all the time.
“In the past, they were drumming on their desks or they were touching other people, but they don’t do that anymore.
Their feet are getting out of the movement,” she said.
“The kids are not making fun of each other and they are able to get their activities through and get their work done,”
the young educator added. “I think the world is changing a lot and the kids need to be able to do something different.”
Lambeth installed the cycling machines at the end of last year, paying around $150 for each.
Judging by the results observed by the Wake County teacher, this might be a way the educational officials are
particularly excited about the role that cycling machines have played and think these can play in special education classes.
The kids obviously love the new “toys”. Sofia Fedele, one of Lambeth’s students, said cycling helps her focus on her
work during the class “Pedaling (踩踏板) is much better and it keeps me exercising and focused,” she said. Quinn Spear,
another student in Lambeth’s class, also acknowledged the health benefits of cycling during the class. He said that he had
pedaled 5.5 miles and burned 133calories,all before 10 am.
28．Why did the teacher Bethany Lambeth install the cycling machines?
A．To make an experiment. B．To attract more students to her class.
C．To introduce a new toy to her students. D．To make her students more focused in class.
29．What do we know about school officials?
答案第4页，共2页A．They plan to install more cycling machines in classes.
B．They think the cycling machines can be used in special education classes.
C．They regard cycling machines as new toys for students.
D．They need to look into the results of using cycling machines.
30．What is Wake Country teacher’s attitude towards Lambeth’s project?
A．Positive. B．Indifferent. C．Negative. D．Doubtful.
31．What’s the main purpose of the author in writing the text?
A．To call on schools to install more cycling machines.
B．To introduce a new way to make students focus on the class.
C．To tell teachers how to help students improve their studies.
D．To show the advantages of cycling in class.

For many runners, a marathon can often be a challenge—but sometimes what gets a runner through the tough 26.2
miles is looking out into the crowd and seeing his or her loved one holding up a sign and shouting words of encouragement.
For one mom, though, her loved one was a bit more hands-on.
While running the REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon in Salt Lake City, Courtney Rich, a self-taught baker and mother
of two, was beginning to run out of energy just yards from the end when she was suddenly joined by her 10-year-old
daughter, Avery.
The touching moment, caught on video and posted on social media, shows Avery running to her mother’s side to
support her as she approached the end of the race. Rich’s face lit up when Avery joined her and helped her cross the finish
line.
Rich later said in the video’s caption that being joined by her daughter to finish the race was “a moment I hope neither
of us ever forget”. Rich said that her daughter could tell she was struggling after a phone call near the end of the race. “She
knew I had struggled the last few miles,” Rich said. “She saw tears in my eyes when I called on mile 24.”
In the video, Rich’s facial expression changes from tiredness to a smile after seeing her daughter emerge from the
crowd to join her. Then, Rich and her daughter ran hand-in-hand to the finish line. “Nothing could have prepared me for the
moment my 10-year-old daughter would jump out of the crowd and run with me to the finish line,” she said. When the race
was done, the two hugged each other at the finish line. The video ends with a final caption, “And then she just held me. She
held me.”
In the past, the REVEL Big Cottonwood Marathon has had other memorable moments of mothers caring for their
children, but perhaps not as hands-on as this one.
32．What happened to Rich when she was coming to the finish line?
A．She felt herself struggling. B．She was far behind others.
C．She fell down all of a sudden. D．She was interrupted by Avery.
33．How did Avery react to the accident?
A．She ran the rest in place of Rich. B．She tried to call for help at once.
C．She helped Rich run to the finish line. D．She shouted encouraging words to Rich.
34．How did Rich feel about Avery’s response?
答案第5页，共2页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司A．Doubtful. B．Content. C．Concerned. D．Expected.
35．What can be the best title for the text?
A．A Daughter Cheered For Her Mother By Joining In Her Race
B．A Mother Encouraged Her Daughter To Pursue Her Dream
C．A Daughter Got Involved In Her Mother’s Race By Mistake
D．A Mother Would Never Give Up On Her Marathon Dream

Not many people have an emergency fund even though it is essential. It will become your financial buffer (缓冲)in
case something unexpected occurs. 36 You can one day tell yourself you’ll finally start saving up, but with the
bills you need to pay and the other needs you must consider, your plan might fail. Here are a few aspects for you to consider
when you wish to succeed in saving your rainy day fund.
Usually, it is suggested that you save a total of three to six months’ worth of expenses. 37 And if you get
overwhelmed by the amount you need to save, you might become discouraged and fail. To settle the issue, forget about that
suggestion. You should decide how much you want to save initially. For instance, you can just start with one month's worth
of expenses. 38
Budgeting is also important if you want to be financially healthy. Note what expenses are non-negotiable, such as
your living expenses and food. 39 It's not bad to spoil yourself sometimes, as long as the price is reasonable
relative to your current financial situation.
40 For instance, those who wish to pursue higher education will need to budget and save up for their school
expenses. Even if they go to an affordable educational institution, other school-related expenses can still be quite a lot. So,
knowing how to budget will help them survive school without falling much into debt.
A．Therefore, you need to find a way to deal with it.
B．Budgeting can help improve your academic performance.
C．And when you achieve that, then you can set a higher goal.
D．However, saving an emergency fund is easier said than done.
E．Set aside some money for some non-essential expenses as well.
F．But it's not that easy to set aside such a huge amount all of a sudden.
G．Learning how to budget will be useful in other areas of your life as well.

In 2017, a Chinese antique bowl fetched $ 38 million at auction (拍卖) — a new record for Chinese porcelain (瓷器).
Though it was described as “a highly important and 56 (extreme) rare” piece of art, it was a shallow bowl that was
used in ancient China 57 (clean) calligraphy and paint brushes. Why is Chinese porcelain so expensive? The answer
lies 58 the European obsession (痴迷) with Chinese porcelain.
Lars Tharp, a Chinese porcelain specialist, set out to explore why Chinese porcelain was so 59 (value). He
traveled to the mountainside in which almost every single Chinese export vase, plate and cup began life in the 18th century
— a mountain known as Mount Gaolin, from 60 name we get the word kaolin, or china clay. He saw how the
china clay 61 (combine) with another substance, mica, that would turn it into porcelain.
62 (carry) his own newly-acquired vase, Lars uncovered some secrets of China’s porcelain capital, Jingdezhen.
He saw how 63 trade between China and Europe not only changed our idea of what was beautiful but also affected
the whole tradition of Chinese aesthetics too.
The porcelain fever has driven high 64 (consume) in the past ten years. Today China’s rising millionaire class
are buying back the export china once shipped to Europe. The bowl 65 (sell) at auction shows that the appeal of
Chinese porcelain is as strong as ever.

67．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。
Many years ago, I was at a girls’ school and our teacher made all the girls in the class sit next to someone different
every day.
On one of the days, my teacher paired Madhuri, who I had never talked to, and me to sit next to each other. I noticed
that she seemed very anxious. I asked her what was wrong. She remained silent at first, but eventually, she told me that she
had three sisters in her family and that her father couldn’t afford school books for all of them.
My primary school was strict, as was the standard then, and if you didn’t have your school books the teacher would
make you leave the class. Madhuri was very anxious that day because she thought that the teacher would tell her to leave
the class. When the teacher saw that she didn’t have the books, he told Madhuri that she couldn’t attend class for a week.
Madhuri was very upset. I felt so bad when I saw her pain that I decided to help her. I went to speak to her and offered
to buy the books for her. She refused my offer to help. She had very strong principles and she would never accept things
bought by others.
When I got home from school I told my mom the story. She said that it was good that I had tried to help but I should
stop worrying about it because there was nothing more that I could do if she had refused my offer to help. I couldn’t stop
worrying about it though.

that doesn’t mean we can automatically trust you to handle these smaller vehicles on this indoor racetrack. So, before we get
started, I just want to go over some ground rules. Number 1: you must wear your helmet and seat belt at all times. Anyone
who is found breaking this rule will be asked to leave the racetrack and will not receive a refund of their deposit. Number 2:
please drive safely. This means no bumping into other cars on purpose, and be aware that drivers who are judged to be
driving too aggressively will be given a warning before being asked to leave. Number 3: there is absolutely no eating,
drinking, or smoking in the vehicles. There is a restaurant where drivers can relax between races, but nothing except the
driver should be in the mini cars. Finally, please make sure you are familiar with all the safety features of the vehicles
before the first race starts. These include the door locks, the emergency braking system, and the emergency lights. If there is
an accident out on the track, you’ll need to be able to use these features as quickly and safely as possible. You’ve all signed
your insurance forms already, so if there are no other questions, pick out your helmets and let’s get out to the track and
check out the cars!

【原文】W: Sweetest day is always the third Saturday in October. This holiday is much more important in some regions
than in others. Detroit, Cleveland and buffalo are the biggest, sweetest day cities, but this holiday is gaining in popularity.
Every year throughout the country, sweetest day is celebrated to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers an
opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged and orphaned but also friends and relatives. Over sixty years ago, a
Cleveland man, believing that the city’s orphans and patients too often felt forgotten, formed in the mind an idea of showing
them that they were not. He did this by the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he
distributed them on a Saturday in October. In the years that followed, other residents began to participate in the event, which
came to be called sweetest day. In time, the day became an occasion for acknowledging others with a kind act or a small
remembrance. Soon the idea began spreading to other cities all over the country.

66．Dear friends and distinguished judges,
I’m contestant NO. 12. I’m privileged to stand here and deliver my speech themed on “saving our planet”.
Our planet is facing numerous challenges, such as pollution, deforestation, and climate change, which have led to the
destruction of ecosystems and the loss of biodiversity. These problems are largely caused by human activities, including
overconsumption, industrialization, and the burning of fossil fuels.
To save our planet, we must take immediate action. First, we should reduce our carbon footprint by adopting
sustainable practices, such as using public transportation and recycling waste. Second, we need to protect natural resources
by supporting renewable energy sources. Lastly, we must raise awareness about the importance of environmental
conservation and encourage others to join the cause.
Let us remember that our planet is our home, and it is our responsibility to protect it. Together, we can make a
difference and create a sustainable future for generations to come.
Thank you!
