B
Hank is clever and careful about his work. Chip is artistic and takes chances with his projects. Hank likes
Chip. But when their teacher asked them to work on a book report together, Hank was unhappy. “I think we should
do the book report like a show,” Chip said. He was very excited to work with Hank, because Hank always got good
grades.
“But it is not a show,” Hank reminded him. “It is a book report. We have to write it down.”
“We will write it down,” Chip said. “But instead of reading it in front of the class, we will act it out! We can
present(展示)the book report like it’s a play. Or maybe we can sing it!”
Hank did not want to sing his book report. That evening he told his parents about Chip. “I do not want to work
with Chip,” Hank said. “I don’t think Chip understands what a book report is.”
“Your teacher told you to work with Chip, and that is what you must do,” Hank’s father said. “This task is not
just about reading a book and writing a report. It is about working with someone else to get a job done, even if you
have differences.”
The next day, as soon as Hank walked into the classroom, Chip came up to him. “I have an idea!” Chip cried
out. “Let’s draw our book report like a comic(连环画)!” Hank was not sure about this idea. But he remembered
what his father said. “We will read the book and talk about it together, and decide what we want to say,” Chip said.
“Then you will say some of it with words, and I will say some of it with pictures!”
The boys worked on their book report all week. Their teacher was very happy with their work. Now Hank and
Chip are good friends, and Hank always enjoys working with Chip.
20. Hank was unhappy about working with Chip at first because _________.

D. the advantage of being different

There are many aspects (方面) to language learning such as how to say words, which words to choose, and
what form of words to use. All of these aspects together can make learning a foreign language very difficult. But
there are some points that might make it easier, and more fun.
First, don’t worry too much about pronouncing words the wrong way. Pronunciation is important, of course. It
helps the listener to understand what is said more clearly. However, the most important step in learning a new
language is to practice speaking it. Like learning any new skill (技能), practice makes perfect. And when you
practice speaking the new language, the native speaker (说本族语的人) usually thinks highly of your hard work
and is ready to help improve your pronunciation.
Second, don’t be afraid to guess the meaning of what someone says. There will be a lot of words to learn while
studying a foreign language. In fact, there are tens of thousands of different words in English. And a word may
have more than one meaning. The same goes with any other language. It is impossible to know all the words and all
the meanings. Use clues (提示) to guess the meaning of what others say. When meeting a person that says “Hola”
and waves his or her hand, one might guess that the person is giving a greeting. It is not important at that moment
to know the exact meaning. With more practice of guessing the meaning of new words, your vocabulary will
increase.
,
Third don’t lose hope. Learning a new language always takes time. Many will give up learning because
learning all of the rules of another language is too hard or boring. Some may think that other people will make fun
of them for making mistakes. But it’s OK to make mistakes. Nobody is perfect, after all. Don’t give up and keep
trying.
In the end, learning a new language can be difficult, but remember that it can have great benefits (益处).
Learning a new language doesn’t just mean the ability to speak in that different language. It can also include
making new friends, experiencing new adventures in a different culture, and tasting new foods!
23. What can we learn from the passage?
A. English has more words than any other language.
B. Native speakers think highly of perfect pronunciation.
C. Guessing the meaning of new words is an important skill.
D. Learning grammar rules is easier than learning pronunciation.
24. The writer suggests a foreign language learner should __________.
A. go to a foreign country to learn it
B. feel relaxed about making mistakes

C. remember as many words as possible
D. find interesting ways to learn the rules
25. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Advice for learning a foreign language.
B. Reasons for learning a foreign language.
C. Difficulties in learning a foreign language.
D. Advantages of learning a foreign language.

It’s Good to Ask for Help
Part of growing up is learning how to work things out for yourself. However, you don’t have to struggle alone
all the time. Learning how to ask others to lend a hand is also an important life skill.
When you might need help
There are lots of reasons why you could need help, for example, with schoolwork, learning a new skill, or
when you feel sad, worried or angry. When you find something difficult, or it takes a long time to make progress
(进步), you may feel frustrated. This can also make you feel like you can’t do it. These are all signs (征兆) that
you need help. Asking for help will move you forward more quickly than trying on your own.
__
Asking for help isn’t always easy. You might feel red-faced that you need help, or you think asking for a
helping hand is a sign of weakness. These thoughts make it hard for you to turn to another person. Angela
McMillan, a counsellor (顾问) who advises young people, says asking for help can also feel risky, especially when
you are not sure who to ask. “You might feel afraid that they don’t have time, or they won’t take your problem
seriously.”
Asking for help is brave
Everyone finds things difficult sometimes—you’re not the only one. McMillan believes asking for help is an
act of bravery. “Letting someone in, believing in them and asking them to listen to you and help you solve a
problem takes great courage (勇气).”
Asking for help is good for you
When you ask for help, it makes you less worried, and it usually produces a better result. There are other
benefits too. By asking for help, you practice speaking up for yourself and saying what you need. It shows you how
someone else might feel when they’re struggling, which means you could be more able to offer a hand when
someone needs it.
Noah, aged 11, shared his story. “At school our teacher asked us to write a passage in the third person to

describe moving to another country. I found this hard and asked my teacher for some adjectives (形容词) to get me
started. At the end I thought it was one of my best pieces of work, so I was really pleased that I had asked for help!”
26. The word “frustrated” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _________.
A. peaceful B. discouraged C. uninterested D. confident
27. Which of the following would be the best heading for Paragraph 3?
A. How you can ask for help
B. Who you should ask for help
C. Why you need to ask for help
D. What stops you asking for help
28. The writer probably agrees that _________.
A. brave people are less likely to ask for help
B. asking for help shows you need to improve your ability
C. asking for help can make you more willing to help others
D. people should be careful of the risks when asking for help

四、阅读表达（每题2分，共10分）
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Helping Birds in a Changing World
Do you think birds are interesting? Do you like spending time outdoors? Do you care about wildlife and the
environment (环境)? If you answered yes to these questions, you might think about becoming a bird biologist. Bird
biologists are scientists who study birds.
Birds are interesting for many reasons. Birds have a lot in common, but at the same time, they can be very
different from one another. All birds have feathers, and most of them can fly. They are in different sizes from
hummingbirds smaller than your fist (拳头) to ostriches taller than the tallest person. Ostriches can’t fly, but they
can run up to 70 kilometers an hour!
Bird biologists work to understand more about birds, their habits, and their homes. Some kinds of birds are
dying off because they travel a long way during migration (迁徙). In North America, birds travel to northern places
in the summer and to more southern places for the winter. Bird biologists are studying how and where birds get hurt
along the way and trying to help them. But that’s not all bird biologists do!
Beth Flint is a bird biologist in a wildlife refuge (保护区) near Hawaii. She tracks (追踪) all the different
kinds of seabirds in the refuge. She enjoys working outside, but she also works in an office. She reads research
studies about all the animals in the wildlife refuge, and makes plans to help protect them, especially the birds. She

talks to volunteers about the wildlife in the refuge, too.
To become a bird biologist, Dr. Flint studied many fields that all connect. She learned about wildlife, forestry,
biology, zoology (the study of animals), botany (the study of plants), and ecology (生态学). Her interest in seabirds
started when she was a student. She saw a photo of Atlantic Puffins on a rock and wanted to learn more about them.
You never know where your interests may lead (引领) you. They may lead you to become a scientist who
studies wildlife!
