The Unusual Package
hair pin
We had just finished our wonderful New Year Party. Now it was finally time to exchange presents.
One by one, our teacher called out each name, and then he handed the presents. Soon, all kinds of gifts, from
board games, candy and books to small toys had been almost opened.
I stood off to one side with my best friends, Carrie and Megan. Carrie’s gift was a box of chocolates and
Megan’s was a book of 365 stories. I tried to appear disinterested. But when the last brightly wrapped(包装的)
present was gone, I began to get nervous.
The teacher finally called out my name and handed me an old, sort of dirty small box.
What an unusual package(包裹), I thought. Who would wrap something like this?
“Who’s it from?” asked Carrie.
I turned over the box and found, “To Betty from Sarah,” written in pencil. My heart dropped down to my feet
when I saw it.
Sarah’s family was poor and they moved here about two years ago. Sarah was nice but terribly shy. She had
trouble with her schoolwork, especially reading. Sometimes our teacher asked me to help her.
My mother had taught me that I should always be polite when receiving a gift. “Feelings are more important
than things,” she always said. “There is nothing in the world worth hurting someone else’s feelings over.” So I was
ready to act as if I had just been given the best present I had ever received.

“Maybe it’s an eraser ” said Carrie.
“I think it’s just a card,” said Megan.
But when I opened the box and reached my fingers in, I knew they were both wrong. I pulled out a hair pin. It
was light yellow with a small pink flower on it. It was truly beautiful.
That night, I received more than the gift Sarah gave me. I learned not to prejudge others, and that nice presents
and kind hearts could come in unusual packages.
24. The writer got the present from ________.
A. Carrie B. Megan C. Betty D. Sarah
25. What present did the writer receive?

Many cultures have stories of talking trees that give advice as well as warnings to people.

New research has found something amazing: it appears that plants can communicate after all
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals(化学物质) to communicate with each other. This
happens when a plant, say a bean plant, gets attacked by insects(昆虫). The plant sends out a small number of
chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked!”
When another bean plant discovers this, it starts to send out its own, different chemicals. Some of these chemicals
drive insects away. Others attract insects—the wasps! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the bean plants.
Scientists hope to learn more about his plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow crops in a better way.
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds, but plants are
making them. Some plants make noises with their roots(根). They also “listen” to the noises from other plants. A
chilli plant can tell if a neighbouring plant is helpful, or unfriendly. Some trees make clicking noises when there is
not enough water.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can connect nearly every plant
in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. The
wood wide web is connected underground by fungi(菌类). This fungi network connects the roots of different plants
to each other. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. But just like
our own Internet, the wood wide web has its own problems. Plants can steal food from each other, or attack other
plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks.
Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Who knows?
Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves.
27. What do bean plants probably do when they get attacked by insects?
A. They make noises with their leaves.
.
B They drive wasps to kill the insects.
C. They give out chemicals to call for help.
D. They fight back directly with other bean plants.
28. What do we know about the “wood wide web”?
A. It has its own firewall to stop attacks.
B. It shares information with insects often.
C. It is a bit like the Internet we use today.
D. It produces food through fungi and roots.
29. What could be the best title of the passage?
A. The Secret Language of Plants
B. The Benefits of Plants’ Talking
C. Why do Plants Talk with Each Other?
D. How do Plants Communicate with People?
D
As digital devices (数字设备) have taken over society, keyboard activity is now often taken to replace early
handwriting. The idea is that typing may be easier for young children. But a new study has found that using a pen
or pencil activates (激活) more areas of your brain than a keyboard does.
Audrey van der Meer, the study’s leader from the Norwegian University, believes that young children should
learn to write by hand successfully. This is because writing “gives the brain more chances than typing to hang your
第6页/共10页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司memories on”, she explains. Think about it. When we write, our brain needs to think about and get back memories
of the shape of each letter. We also need to use our eyes to watch what shapes we’re writing. And we need to
control our hands to press a pen or pencil to shape the different letters. All of this uses and connects more areas of
the brain.
Along the way, these processes appear to “open the brain up for learning”, says Van der Meer. So learning
through only one way — digital — could be harmful, she worries.
Van der Meer also points out that taking notes by hand encourages “visual(视觉的) notetaking”. Rather than
typing blindly, the visual notetaker has to think about what is important to write down. Then, key words can be
“connected with boxes, arrows, and small drawings”. Drawing images and writing also turn on parts of the brain
involved with learning. Writing even activates language areas.
,
This suggests Van der Meer says, that when we write by hand, “we both learn better and remember
better”. So it’s important for children to learn handwriting in school from an early age.
This study does not suggest giving up digital devices. In fact, it points out, computers and other devices with
keyboards have become essential in many modern classrooms. Keyboarding also can be helpful for students with
certain special needs (such as if they have trouble using their hands). But nearly all students will benefit from
learning handwriting at an early age.
Van der Meer agrees that learning to write by hand is a slower process and requires fine motor skills. But, she
adds, that’s good: “If we don’t challenge our brain, we can’t make full use of it.”
30. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. How writing and printing activate the brain.
B. How typing involves more brain movements.
C. Why people prefer keyboarding to handwriting.
D. Why handwriting is important to young children.
31. The word “essential” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A. Famous. B. Expensive. C. Important. D. Traditional.
32. According to the study, which of the following about taking notes is TRUE?
A. It can develop drawing skills.
B. It’s good for language learning.
C. It can stop people typing blindly.
D. It’s a must for remembering letters.
33. Van der Meer might agree that ________.
A. learning through digital devices is harmful
第7页/共10页

Why do We Celebrate Festivals?
Festivals are celebrated all around the world. Every festival has its different customs. However, no matter how
different they may seem, all over the world, the spirit of sharing joy, thanks, love, or peace is common in all
festivals.
Of all the traditional festivals, the harvest(丰收) festival can be found in almost every culture. This important
festival takes place after all the crops have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are thankful for the
year’s supply of food. In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime—the Egyptian
harvest season. It had a parade and a great large meal with music dancing, and sports. Today, in some European
countries, people decorate town halls with flowers and fruit, and get together to celebrate over a meal. During the
Mid-Autumn Festival in China, families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious moon cakes.
Customs play an important role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time because of the
development of modern society and the spread of new ideas. One example is the Chinese Spring Festival custom of
lighting fireworks to drive away the evil(恶毒的) spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities
have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution. Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an
exciting festival for children which is far from its original custom.
Festivals are becoming more and more commercial(商业的) with businesses taking advantage of the
celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend
more on gifts for their loved ones. Although some believe festivals should not be commercialized, others believe
the increase in spending is good for the economy(经济) and public happiness.
Festivals are an important part of society. They show people’s wishes, beliefs and attitudes towards life. They
allow us to relax and enjoy life, and forget about our work for a little while. They help us understand where we
