When I was young. I loved paper cutting and I was pretty good at it. As I grew up. I
became busy and didn’t have much time for it. Later I stopped doing it.
However, the news I came across online touched my heart and changed my mind. A little

started to beat drums and gongs for her and quickly she did a lion dance in return. People

to make paper cuttings there.
Our teacher, Ms. Xie, was very talented. With a pair of scissors and a piece of paper, she
could create lively works. That amazed us. And we learned much from her. Together, we
created lots of works. They covered many topics, including animals, flowers and things about
Chinese history. Every time we held a paper cutting show, our works attracted many visitors.

to pass down our excellent culture.

athletes (运动员 ) to the Games, competing in 236 events across 30 sports. While Chinese
athletes worked hard to win honor for the country, many “Made in China” products drew

during review.

along with other Olympics-related products such as cheering sticks.
In the Olympic Village, athletes could relax on 3,000 sets of lazy sofas produced by a

Do you have to try more than once to fit a pair of shoes correctly into their box How
well can you catch a ball Are you good at giving directions All of these everyday activities
require spatial thinking — the ability to see and move objects in your mind.
In fact, science shows that spatial ability plays an important role in many STEM subjects.
For example, it is important for learning maths, as we use it to notice and understand the
relationships between shapes, spaces, and areas. Another example is the spatial setup of the
periodic table (元素周期表), which helps us to understand chemical relationships.
The good news is that spatial skills are not set in stone and can be improved. One of the
easiest ways to improve these skills is to picture things in your mind.This ability has been
linked to better performance in science and math and can be developed through training.
Children can practice imagining how to move jigsaw (拼图玩具 ) pieces in their minds.
Small-world play – with dollhouses or toy farm sets, for example, – can help children
understand differences in size and space. Experts have also found that using toys like building
blocks improves spatial skills.
As a final example, children who hear more spatial language may have stronger spatial
skills. Words as simple as “in,” “on” and “next to” all count. These words help children
understand the spatial relationships between objects. More difficult words include “side by
side” and “apart.” Along with hand movements, they can help children learn difficult spatial
concepts (概念).
61. How does the writer lead into the topic
A.By asking questions. B. By making lists.
C. By giving examples. D. By telling stories.
62. Which of the following pictures shows training in spatial thinking
A. B.

63. Children can improve their spatial skills by practicing .
A. finishing math exercises alone B. connecting science with math
C. imagining how to move jigsaw pieces D. knowing where farm sets are from
64. Why are hand movements helpful for teaching spatial ideas
A. They help kids forget hard ideas. B. They help kids understand the concepts.
C. They help kids learn spatial language. D. They help kids know how to move things.
65. What’s the best title of the text
A. How to Learn Math and Science. B. Improving Your Memory Skills.
C. How to Play with Toys Effectively. D. The Importance of Spatial Thinking.

How did people tell the time before clocks were invented
At first, the ancient people looked up at the sun and could know it was the middle of the
day when the sun was directly overhead in the sky. 66
Later, the Egyptians used sticks. These sticks measured time during the day. The sun
shone on the tall stick and the stick made a shadow (影子) . As the sun moved across the sky,
the position (位置) of the shadow changed. 67
Over time, the Chinese first used sundials (日晷) instead of shadow sticks. The sundial
has a type of shadow stick on it. As the sun shines on it, a shadow appears on the numbers.
68 But sundials don’t work at night or on a cloudy day! There are no shadows unless the
sun is out.
69 Water dripped slowly from one bowl into another. The level of the water
in the bowls showed the time.
People also used sand-glasses. You may have seen one. Some games still use
sand-glasses. The sand falls from the top of the sand-glasses to the bottom. It measures short
amounts of the time. 70 When the sand has finished falling, you have to turn the
sand-glasses over.
A. This would let people tell what time it was.
B. Each number stands for an hour of the day.
C. The more sand falls, the more time has passed.
D. They also knew when it was morning or evening.
E. Water clocks used water to measure time at night.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has a history of about 2000 years. People celebrate it on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month every year. During that day, we often enjoy the beauty of flowers in the daytime. And when the night falls, a family usually stay together and admire the beautiful full moon. Children like to play with lanterns together. Moon cakes are the special food for this festival.
