Dear Peter:
How is everything going I am awfully delighted to tell you that an English lecture titled “ On Humor” will be held at our City Library from 9:00 am to 11:00 am on the morning of October 4th.

Almost in tears, I poured out the whole story. With a lump in my throat I explained how much I loved poetry and that I had never even considered plagiarizing, Mr. Jordan listened attentively, nodding occasionally as I spoke. When I finished, he smiled gently and reassured me that it was okay to feel sad. “Sharing your creativity is a brave thing to do, Linda," he said warmly. “Even if it didn't go as planned, your courage is admirable. Remember, talent like yours is a gift. Trust in your own abilities and let your work speak for itself.”His words comforted me, giving me a sense of affirmation I desperately needed in that moment of doubt and frustration.
Inspired by his words, I gathered my courage and turned back to the classroom. Mrs. Baker looked up as I entered, her expression now softened with understanding. Taking a deep breath,I assured everyone the poem was indeed my own creation and explained how I had crafted the poem about my father with love and care. “I'd like to recite it again," I said with determination. This time, I recited the poem slowly and clearly, letting the emotions behind the words flow naturally. As I finished, there was a moment of silence before applause broke out, genuine and warm. “Sorry for the misunderstanding and thank you for sharing that,”Mrs. Baker said sincerely.“Your poem is really touching. " The tension lifted, and I felt a sense of pride knowing that I did surprise my classmates and Mrs. Baker. pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. Then he picked it up and tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir. This fell out of your pocket.” The man turned around and saw the money. He knew what was going on. He held my dad’s hands and received the bill with tears in his eyes. He said gratefully, “Thank you so much. This means a lot to me and my family.”

W: The prize-giving ceremony of the 20th Baihua Literature Awards was held in Tianjin on Tuesday. Thirty-nine works received awards in seven categories, including short stories, novels, science fiction and online literature. Additionally, 18 editors from literary journals received the Editor’s Award, while 30 readers from both China and abroad received the Reader’s Award. Lin Sen, representative of the award-winning editors, said: “I have been working in journal editing for more than 15 years, and I deeply understand that life has not been easy for us editors recently. We need to put our whole heart into work but receive few professional rewards and face pressure from all sides.” As the first literary award in China to be selected by readers, the Baihua Literature Awards is held once every two years. During the past four decades, the Baihua Awards has continuously expanded its areas of interest. In 2019, the science fiction award was introduced. This year, the online literature award was also added. I’m Li Hua, from CGTN.山西省实验中学

For my 56th birthday, my daughter, Beth, bought me two beautifully carved wooden butterflies. I hung them in prominent places on my walls so that I can see them often during the day. Each time I do so, they give me a wonderful reminder of love.
My daughter and my love of butterflies goes back many years. After a long battle against cancer, my mom passed away when I was only 25 years old. Beth was only a baby at the time and never got to have any memories of her grandma. I tried to make up for it by telling her stories of my mom but each time I did, I could see that there was a little sadness in Beth’s eyes. One day when she was only seven or so we were outside at the playground. Beth suddenly said how much she saddened not having her grandma around. Well, sometimes I comforted her and this time I told her how much her grandma loved her and that Grandma still remained positive in the last weeks of her life. I said she was watching over her from Heaven and that maybe she was even hitching (搭乘) a ride on the back of a butterfly to come down and get a closer look. At that very moment, a butterfly appeared flying around Beth’s face and then flew away.We both laughed with our hearts full of love and joy.
Since that moment all of those years ago, both Beth and I seem to attract butterflies like flowers. Whenever we are outside, they seem to fly down, circle around us, take a good look, and then fly away. And every time, we are reminded of my mom’s love watching over us. The only time this doesn’t happen is during the coldest months of the year when there are no insects of any kind. But now during those times I can take a look at the two beautiful wooden butterflies my daughter bought me and still be reminded of that love.
24.Why did Beth buy wooden butterflies
A. To celebrate the new year.
B. To decorate her bedroom.
C. To remind her childhood.
D. To celebrate her mother’s birthday.
25. What does the underlined word “prominent” in Paragraph 1 mean
A. noticeable B. essential C. special. D. meaningful
26. Which of the following can best describe the author’s mom
A. Independent and reliable.
B. Enthusiastic and helpful.
C. Tough and optimistic.
D. Capable and respectable.
27. What does the author intend to tell us through the story
A. Wooden butterflies are of great artistic value.
B. We all need reminders that we are loved in our life.
C. It is difficult to maintain family ties during difficult times.
D. The presence of parents is important to children’s development.
C
We grow up with a mixed message: making mistakes is a necessary learning tool, but we should avoid them. And that’s a real shame. Because when we tell kids that learning is all about the results, we teach them that mistakes are something to be feared and avoided. We stifle (压制) their interest in experimenting because experimenting means you’re going to make a mess and fail. And that’s too big a risk.
Here’s a fascinating experiment that shows how children absorb what we say about effort vs. results. One of professor Carol Dweck’s experiments asked 400 5th graders in New York City schools to take an easy short test, on which almost all performed well. Half the children were praised for “being really smart”. The other half were complimented for “having worked really hard”. Then the students were asked to take a second test and given the option of either choosing one that was pretty simple and that they would do well on, or one that was more challenging, but on which they might make mistakes. Of those students praised for effort, 90 percent chose the harder test. Of those praised for being smart, the majority chose the easy test. Professor Dweck told me: “One thing I’ve learned is that kids are exquisitely (敏锐地) familiar to the real message, and the real message is ‘Be smart’. It’s not ‘We love it when you struggle or when you learn and make mistakes.’”
One way we can fix this is by understanding the concepts of “fixed mindsets” and “growth mindsets”. Those with fixed mindsets believe either we’re good at something—whether it’s math or music or baseball—or we’re not. When we have this fixed mindset, mistakes serve no purpose but to highlight failure. Those with growth mindsets are much more likely to be able to accept mistakes because they know that they’re part of learning. And it’s been shown that when kids are taught about growth mindsets, their motivation to learn improves.
28. Why do children often avoid experimenting
A. They consider the process time-consuming .
B. They are not interested in hands-on activities.
C. They are afraid of making mistakes and failing.
D. They prefer easy tasks over challenging ones.
29. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2
A. The children tested were totally successful.
B. The students were involved in tests twice.
C. The students were given the same choice.
D. The children were not very sensitive to being smart.
30. What lesson can we learn from professor Carol Dweck’s experiment
A. Praise promotes children’s self-confidence.
B. Keep children away from struggle and mistakes.
C. Praise children for their devotion instead of their talent.
D. Parents should give their children timely encouragement.
31. Who is the passage mainly intended for
A. Professors. B. Parents C. Researchers. D. Children.
D
There have been concerns that video games might damage our mental and physical well-being. Recently, more researches have revealed these worries are largely unfounded. Nevertheless, there exists a deep-seated idea that playing them rots your brain—it’s easy to view them as an unproductive waste of time. But in reality, is the opposite the case
For years, “brain-training” games and apps have been convinced to be an effective way to boost our cognitive (认知的) abilities or intelligence, as it’s thought that by playing a series of quickfire puzzles focusing on things like memory or spatial awareness, over time our abilities in these areas will improve; theoretically, so will our general intelligence.
From a research viewpoint, the key lies in whether playing these sorts of games results in “transfer”effects—“near” and “far”transfer effects: near effects relate to whether playing one memory game results in improvements in other memory games, whereas far effects relate to whether playing that game results in a general improvement in cognitive abilities. Some studies have pointed out brain-training games show weak near effects. As for far effects, there’s no convincing evidence this happens.
However, things get interesting when brain-training games are compared with video games. In a 2015 study comparing the brain-training game SmartP with the video game Mazix, researchers found SmartP players didn’t show boosts in problem-solving and spatial skills, but Mazix players did.
More recently, in 2020, researchers in Sweden studied data from some 9,000 children and found that kids aged 9 or 10 who played video games for above-average amounts of time didn’t show any differences in intelligence compared with those playing less.Two years later, they discovered that by12, the kids playing video games had 2.5 more IQ points than average.
Why video games result in improvements in cognitive abilities over more targeted games isn’t clear. One argument is to do with the amount of time invested: whereas brain-training apps tend to deliver mini-games over a short time, video games have players engaged and require sustained levels of attention and problem-solving. Despite some promising findings, it’s currently unsafe to say that video games make us smarter. Meanwhile, video games can offer both advantages and risks, so it’s important to be cautious and avoid making quick judgments.
What do people usually think of brain-training games
A. They are a waste of time. B. They can improve our intelligence.
C. They are easily accessible. D. They may enhance our concentration.
33. What do we know about Mazix players
A. They demonstrated signs of far effects. B. They had a great talent for video games.
C. They exhibited boosts in gaming skills. D. They proved the importance of near effects.
34. What does the study in 2020 reveal
A. The limited effects of age on IQ points. B. The negative impacts of video games.
C. The advantages of playing more games. D. The benefits of video games over time.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Do Brain-training Games Really Work B. Video Games or Brain-training Games
C. Could Video Games Make Us Smarter D. Should We Stop Playing Video Games

As we all know, exercise plays an essential part in our daily life. Exercise needs differ from person to person due to a number of reasons. 36
Genetic variability.
Genes play a very big role in determining a person’s response to exercise. 37 Some people may naturally prefer endurance activities (耐力训练),while others may have a genetic make-up that favours strength exercises. Therefore, different genes determine different reactions.
Age
38 Children and adolescents may have different needs for growth and development compared to adults or older people focusing on bone density (密度) and functional abilities. When you are at different ages, you have to choose different exercise.
Personal goals
39 Most people have their own goals when exercising and the plan they follow needs to meet those goals. Personal preferences also come into play, as some people prefer exercising in a team or class, while others prefer solo workouts.
In between exercise
Activity levels between workouts will also influence a person’s exercise needs and how much they eat. If you're in an active job, for example, you might not need as much exercise as someone who often sit. Recovery is also important, as this is where the majority of your gains are made. 40
Recognizing and accepting these differences is vital for tailoring effective and sustainable exercise programmes that meet a person's needs.
Not everyone wants to get faster or be stronger.
There are various ways to meet people’s needs.
So what are the factors that contribute to varying needs
Motivation and stress level also affect your recovery often.
Exercise requirements change over the course of a person’s life.
Everyone has different recovery times, even after doing the same workout.
G. Gene influences factors such as muscle fiber composition and other capacities.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
On Monday morning I wore my favourite dress to school for the first time since I had started at Edison Middle School. I said good morning to our headmaster, Mr. Jordan, at the school entrance. With a genuine smile that reached his eyes, he greeted me by name, inquiring about my weekend and showing a sincere interest in my day ahead.
That was really comforting! It was the day of the poetry festival, and I was excited. At my old school, I had won the poetry award every year. I’m horrible at sports, and too shy to be popular—but I do write good poetry, although I never told anyone here about it yet.
The poem I wrote for the Edison Festival was about my dad. I wished I would surprise my classmates and Mrs. Baker, my English teacher.
When Mrs. Baker called on me, I was so nervous that I had to swallow about ten times before I could speak. But once I started, I didn’t even bother to look at my paper. I’d spent so much time perfecting the rhymes that I knew the poem by heart.
I had just started the third line when I noticed Mrs. Baker’s expression change. She looked at me with a mixture of appreciation and disbelief. I stopped in the middle of a word and waited for her to say something.
“Linda, you are supposed to be reading a poem you made up yourself, not reciting something you learned. That is called plagiarism(剽窃)!”
“Oh, but it’s an original one. I did make it up; it’s about my dad. “I heard a “Yeah, right!” from somewhere behind me, and someone else laughed. I opened my mouth to explain, but no words came out.
“Perhaps you could step out and gather your thoughts, and when you feel ready, we can discuss this with a clear mind,” said Mrs, Baker.
