Inside Out
Although I did not speak or understand English, I was still excited about going to school for the
first time.
On my first day of school, my teacher, Miss Scalapino seated me closest to the
window. Right next to my desk was a caterpillar in a large jar. It moved very slowly
without making any sound. Just in front of the caterpillar was a picture book of
caterpillars and butterflies. I went through it, page by page, studying all the pictures.
When the bell rang, all the kids walked in quietly. Some of them looked at me.
Embarrassed and nervous, I looked at the caterpillar in the jar. I did this every time someone looked at
me. In class, I did not understand a word Miss Scalapino was saying. The more she spoke, the uneasier
I felt. For days I got headaches from trying to listen. Luckily, the caterpillar brought me some comfort.
During breaks, I often stayed with it and fed it with leaves from trees on the playground.
My favorite time in school was when we did art. I drew butterflies in pencil and then colored them
第4页/共12页
using every color in my crayon box. Miss Scalapino even put one of my drawings up on the board for
everyone to see. After a couple of weeks it disappeared and I did not know how to ask where it had
gone.
One day after class, I looked for the caterpillar but could not see it. I put my hand
in the jar and lightly moved the leaves. To my surprise, the caterpillar had turned into
a cocoon(茧).
On Wednesday, May 23, just a few days before the end of the school year, Miss
Scalapino took me by surprise. She handed me the drawing of the butterfly that had disappeared weeks
before and a silk blue ribbon that had“1st PLACE”printed on it in gold. I received first prize for my
drawing! I was so proud that I felt like bursting out of my skin.
That afternoon, I checked on the caterpillar. I was amazed to find a butterfly moving from its
cocoon slowly. I opened the jar. Magically, the butterfly came out, fluttering(振翅) in the air, ready for
a completely new life.
24. In Miss Scalapino's first class, the writer felt ______.
A. excited B. proud C. uneasy D. surprised
25. Miss Scalapino took the writer by surprise when ______.
A. she took away his favorite drawing
B. she gave him the caterpillar in a jar
C. she handed him his drawing and a ribbon
D. she put one of his drawings up on the board
26. The butterfly fluttering in the air could probably remind the writer that _.
A. they would both stay unnoticed by others
B. he could start a new stage in his life as well
C. he would need to use more colors to draw butterflies
D. they could spend a lot more time together in the future
C
Is there anything sponges can't do For many years, humans have used dried natural sponges to
paint, clean up and take in water. They are good at catching tiny particles(颗粒) in
their many pores. Now, as scientists around the world are beginning to show,
sponges' pore-filled forms mean that they could offer a solution to a big challenge of
our time: microplastic (微塑料) pollution.
Recently, Chinese researchers published a study describing their development of a new man-made
sponge. Tests show that when a plastic-filled liquid(液体) is pushed through the sponge, it removes
the microplastics from the liquid. Though sponge the effectiveness of sponges differed in experiments
第5页/共12页
depending on the concentration (浓度) of the plastics and the nature of the liquid, researchers could
remove up to 90% of the microplastics under the most favorable conditions.
These new sponges are made mostly from starch(淀粉) and gelatin(明胶), making them light and
easy to transport. According to a materials chemist at Ocean University of China who got involved in
the study, researchers can make sponges more or less porous-by changing the temperature when mixing
the ingredients. This decides what size particles can be collected—highly porous sponges have lots of
very small pores, which is good for catching very tiny particles.
According to the chemist, the sponges, if produced at an industrial level, could be used in
wastewater treatment plants or in food production equipment to take away harmful chemicals. It would
also be possible to use sponges like this in washing machines to collect microplastics produced when
clothes are washed, suggests a chemist from Zurich.
Yet challenges remain. One of them is that starch and gelatin are important to the food industry,
meaning that there could be competition for the key ingredients in the future. However, similar sponges
can be made with different materials, such as the sugar taken from the shells of certain ocean animals.
Another challenge is that during the process of producing these new sponges, formaldehyde—a
highly harmful chemical—is used. Scientists around the world are working to upgrade the production
so that they can make a completely environmentally friendly sponge.
As microplastic pollution is getting more serious, these new sponges give us reason to be hopeful.
It's like giving the earth a helping hand to stay clean and healthy.
27. According to the passage, the new sponges could be used to ______.
A. take microplastics out of a liquid
B. test the nature of the plastics in a liquid
C. change the temperature of a plastic-filled liquid
D. replace plastics with harmless materials in a liquid
28. What can we learn from the passage
A. It's difficult to find the ingredients for the new sponges.
B. The new sponges would increase food production in factories.
C. The production of the new sponges is environmentally friendly.
D. How porous sponges are decides what size particles can be collected.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. New Sponges: A Modern Tool to Recycle Plastics
B. New Sponges: A New Invention for Plastic Production
C. New Sponges: A Hopeful Solution for Microplastic Pollution
D. New Sponges: A Green Product to Break Down Microplastics

D
At a climate meeting, some scientists suggested giving up tree planting as a solution to climate
change. To many people, this may seem shocking because they think ecosystem restoration(生态系统
恢复) means planting as many trees as possible.
However, seeing ecosystem restoration as tree planting can be very dangerous because tree
planting is often used as an excuse to avoid cutting carbon emissions(碳排放). In fact, if the oil and
gas industry continues to increase in size, even 10 planets full of trees could not deal with the
destruction that would result. At the same time, these monoculture carbon farms, where only one type
of plant is grown to store carbon, are not truly the restoration of nature. They often cover landscapes
with trees at the cost of the biodiversity(生物多样性) in that area or the living of the local people.
As these problems have been stressed in plenty of media articles, some environmental protection
organizations, like Greenpeace, have even called for an end to all the nature-based solutions to climate
change. However, nature is not the problem. Trees are not the problem. The problem is our misuse of
them as a quick fix to offset carbon emissions.
To get things straight, hundreds of scientists recently joined forces to publish a related study in the
journal Nature. The study shows that the recovery of natural forests has the potential (潜能) to help
with of our carbon drawdown needs in the fight against climate change. But it also shows that these
climate benefits will not be achieved if we don't cut carbon emissions. If emissions continue, then
natural fires and global warming will endanger the forests that we have left.
The study also shows that the full potential- of forests will not be achieved by monoculture tree
plantations, which store less than half as much carbon as diverse ecosystems do. Most of the forest
potential can be achieved by protecting and managing the ecosystems that we have left, allowing them
to recover. The rest can be achieved by encouraging local communities to take active steps to
strengthen biodiversity in areas where the ecosystem has been destroyed.
While the diverse ecosystem positively influences the climate, its benefits for local people are far
more important. The real value of ecosystem restoration lies in the rich biodiversity supporting local
living. By protecting nature, people get what they need for living in return. As a Zambian farmer put
it, “no trees, no bees; no honey, no money”. When natural biodiversity becomes a practical choice
for local people, that is when we get the long-term climate benefits of nature as a wonderful byproduct.
30. The second paragraph is mainly about ______.
A. the problems of misunderstanding ecosystem restoration
B. the methods of cutting down greenhouse gas emissions
C. the importance of the biodiversity for the local people
D. the purpose of developing monoculture carbon farms
第7页/共12页
31. The word“offset”in Paragraph 3 probably means“______”.
A. put off B. add to C. speed up D. balance out
32. What can we learn from the study published in the journal Nature
A. Natural forest recovery can meet most carbon drawdown needs.
B. Local communities are expected to play a role in ecosystem restoration.
C. Protecting the remaining ecosystems takes more time than planting trees.
D. Monoculture carbon farms work better than natural forests in storing carbon.
33. The writer probably agrees that ______.
A. people get what they need for living in return by protecting nature
B. it makes no sense to stop monoculture tree planting for climate benefits
C. people should put an end to nature-based solutions for restoring ecosystem
D. developing monoculture carbon farms can improve the living of the local people

四、阅读表达(第 34-36 题每题 2 分, 第 37 题 4 分, 共 10 分)
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
The day had been good, but school was tiring. I was lying on my sofa, mindlessly scrolling(滚屏)
through social media, obsessed (痴迷) with someone else's fancy life. Without even knowing it, I was
comparing myself to others.
In fact, I'm not alone! Comparing is something we struggle with every day. Studies show that
anytime a thought comes to our minds, there's a 1-in-10 chance that we're comparing ourselves to
others. Social comparison theory states that people would judge their own social and personal worth
by comparing themselves to others around them.
Comparison had been the thief of my joy for long until one day I realized that it is pointless to
compare ourselves with others—we are comparing our weaknesses to someone's strengths. I still
remember several moments when I thought the worst of myself because I thought the best of someone
else. For example, every time I saw Kayla performing well at her schoolwork, the first thing that
popped into my mind was a wish that I could be as smart as her. I kept asking myself,“Why couldn't
I just be like her ” I practically praised Kayla while hating myself at the same time.
I decided to change. I started to focus on improving myself instead of comparing with others. I
took up reading one book every month. I started new hobbies. This helped me to discover a new self.
I learned to appreciate(欣赏) what I had. Every day, I wrote down things I was happy about and
chose to be around people who made me feel good. This made me value my life and see how special
第8页/共12页
it is.
And I changed how I used social media. Instead of aimlessly scrolling, I customized (定制) my
social media feeds(推送) to include more educational and inspirational information. I felt happier and
was less likely to compare myself to others.
In our lives, it's important to ask ourselves a key question: are we tending to(照料) our own garden
or are we only visitors, admiring the beautiful gardens of others while failing to care for our own Try
not to get lost in comparing yourself to others since everyone is different. Discover your gifts and let
them shine!
34. What was the writer obsessed with on social media
35. How do people judge their social and personal worth according to social comparison theory
36. Why does the writer think it is pointless to compare ourselves to others
37. What do you think of the ways the writer took to avoid pointless comparison Why (Please give
two reasons.)

五、文段表达
Sample :
题目①
Welcome to China! I'm so excited to share with you a special Chinese handicraft —paper cutting.
Paper cutting is a traditional Chinese folk art that has been around for over 1.500 years. When
making paper cuts, people turn simple pieces of paper into beautiful designs. The paper. usually red,
is folded before it is cut with scissors. The most common shapes are flowers, animals and characters
from Chinese folk stories. During the Spring Festival, beautiful paper cuts are put on windows, doors
and walls as symbols of wishes for good luck and a happy new year.
I recommend paper cutting because it not only shows the creativity of Chinese people but also
carries deep cultural meaning. It reflects the values, beliefs and customs of Chinese people. Also, it is
fun and relaxing for anyone to try.
Hope you'll enjoy yourselves here.
题目②
As the Internet has become part of our lives, it's important to be a good teen netizen. For one thing,
being a good netizen benefits ourselves because it helps us to win acceptance and respect from others.
For another, if everyone behaves properly online, we can help to build a safer and more positive online
community.
第11页/共12页
To be a good teen netizen, here are some useful tips. First, we need to communicate in a polite
way. It helps everyone feel good and respected. Second, we'd better be careful about the personal
information we share online. If it ends up in the hands of the wrong people, we could face unexpected
problems. Finally, we should use the Internet to our benefit, for education and self-improvement, not
just to kill time.
I believe that by working together, each one of us can contribute to building a positive and
responsible online community, while enjoying the benefits of the Internet.
