In 1921, long before the Walt Disney Company turned Pooh (维尼熊) into an international star
of TV and films, Christopher Robin Milne was given a toy bear on his first birthday from his father, A．
A．Milne, who bought the stuffed animal from a store. The stuffed animal was named Edward Bear.
Years later, Edward was named Winnie. From the time Christopher Robin Milne was a baby until he
was about 8 years old, he would receive different stuffed animals.
A．A．Milne was a famous English writer. As he watched his son interest (互动) with Winnie
and friends, A．A．Milne thought his child’s interaction with the collection of animals would make a
great bedtime story. So Milne worked with artist Ernest H. Shepard and wrote the first Winnie the
Pooh poem, where Edward Bear was known as “Teddy Bear”. The writings appeared in Punch
magazine and in the book they wrote together, When We Were Young, which was published in 1924.
In a four-year period, three more books that focused on the bear and his team followed: 1926’s
Winnie-the-Pooh, 1927’s Now We Are Six, and 1928’s The House at Pooh Corner.
The books and poems about Pooh brought great success to the writer, and the characters became
favorites with young children and their families around the world. Their popularity led Disney to get
the rights (版权) to make films about the characters in 1961. Five years later, Pooh, Tiger, Piglet and
the rest of the team appeared on screen for the first time in Winnie-the-Pooh and the Honey Tree. The
characters later appeared in TV shows, movies, video games and short films. Pooh’s most recent

Many people may throw away the pits inside fruits after eating them, but inheritors of nut
carving (核雕继承人) have turned them into artworks instead.
Weifang nut carving can date back to the Qing Dynasty. During that time, an old imperial
craftsman (皇家手艺人 ) Wang Dayan spread the skill to the local people in Shandong Province.
Craftsmen back then often used peach pits (桃核) to show off their artistic skills. Because of the high
level of carving skills needed, the traditional culture and its rich artistic theme, Weifang nut carving
was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (国家非物质文化遗产) in 2008.
“One nut, from 0.8 to 6 centimeters long, can be made into fan pendants (坠 饰 ), earrings,
buttons, seals and so on,” said Tan Wanhai, 48, an inheritor of Weifang nut carving. Tan has studied
the art of nut carving for 25 years and has created many nut carvings.
However, the craftsman also said that bringing this kind of artwork to life is not easy. “Unlike
some pits like olive pits which have a flat surface, each peach pit has its own special texture (质地)
like human fingerprints,” Tan said, adding that, craftsmen have to study each peach pit to carefully
plan out their artwork.
Nut carving craftsmen also need to have knowledge in many areas. According to Tan, they have
to master skills in painting, seal carving and calligraphy (书法) from many traditional cultures.
Thanks to their creative design and fresh ideas, Weifang nut carving artworks have been
increasingly welcomed by people in China. More people are learning the art and have even become
inheritors to pass down the skill to young people.
“Now, the number of inheritors is about 1,000. But I believe it could be bigger. More craftsmen
now give up the tradition of passing down the skill only through the family and open it up to anyone
who is interested in learning the skill,” said Tan.

①the high level of carving skills needed ②its rich artistic theme

Jenny finished playing the last few pieces of music and bowed to the animals on her bed. “I just
hope I can play it well at the concert”. In just an hour she would be playing the violin onstage for the
first time, and the thought made her nervous.
She looked around the room at the bear, lion, money and other animals that lined her bed and
shelves. “I wish you could all come with me,” she sighed. She gave them one last look and went to
join her parents in the car.

When Ghunta finally went to school, he couldn’t catch up on his reading skills. Not only had he
missed early basic education, but he had not been exposed to (接触到) books. By the time he entered
the sixth grade, he could only spell his name, but couldn’t read or understand words. The situation was

himself.

Being confident isn’t just about what you know or think; confidence comes from how you feel in
your body too.
If your shoulders are hunched (驼背的) and your head’s down, you feel different from the way
you feel when you’re sitting or standing straight with your head up and your shoulders back. Try it for
yourself. How do you feel now
Study found that when you’re hunched with your arms and legs crossed and looking down, your
body releases (释放) chemicals. They can make you feel more worried. Doctor Maria Evans says ▲
. “When you stand with your back tall, legs apart (分开) and hands on hips, your body sends the
message to your mind that you feel confident and strong.”
Your body language doesn’t just affect how you feel, it tells other people how nervous or brave
you feel too. Think about someone you see as confident. How do they carry themselves Bring to
mind a movie or TV role you like for being brave or strong and picture how they sit, stand or walk.
See if you can do the same.
If you’re feeling nervous, maybe before you sit a test or do something new, you can feel more
confident by taking a power posture (姿势). Sit or stand up straight with both feet planted on the
ground. Stretch (伸展) your arms out above your head. Keep your shoulders down and your head up
to help you keep the confident feeling. Evans suggests doing a power posture for a few minutes before
school. Notice how it makes you and how your mood changes and becomes more confident.

How do you greet your friends People from different cultures have different answers: shaking
hands, nodding, bowing, kissing on the face.
But have you ever wondered how animals “say hello” to each other Here are some examples.
Everyone knows how similar chimpanzees (黑猩猩) are to humans. So it’s no surprise that their
greetings are also close to ours. The most common ways of greeting between chimpanzees are hand
touching and hugging. Sometimes they also kiss each other. Some chimpanzees can even learn simple
sign language.
Giraffes make few loud sounds. Their necks can reach two meters in length, making them useful
in greeting each other. When two giraffes meet, they may “shake” their necks and rub (摩擦) them
against each other. This is to feel how strong and tall the other is.
Dolphins greet one another with whistles (哨 声 ). They can hear other dolphins from many
kilometers away. Every dolphin has a different whistle. When two groups of dolphins meet, they each
choose a member to “talk” to the other group. The two groups can then travel together. Unlike most of
the other animals, dolphins are smart enough to learn a new language by inventing and copying new
sounds.

Zhang Fubai, 70, is a follower of sugar painting-the intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗
产) in Tianjin. He received the sweet business from his father, who was also a sugar painter.
“When I was a little boy, the children in the neighborhood would ask my father for sugar
paintings.” he said. At 9, he began to copy the flowers and insects his father painted, and would even
try to create sugar paintings himself. “I thought it was fun, but I never hoped to become a sugar
painter myself.”
In 1966, he finished middle school and became a carpenter (木匠) and part-time tailor (裁缝),
and worked on all kinds of drawings. He didn’t make up his mind to join the family business until
1980. In the following years, he would spend days seeing small animals in the fields and rivers. The
time he spent on watching these things and years of experience as a carpenter and tailor helped him
improve his painting skills.
Zhang is never short of buyers because he has created close to 200 sugar painting styles, and he
creates new styles every one or two years. If his buyers ask him for something he doesn’t know, he
will search on the Internet and try to design the styles in his head.
For now, he is quite worried about passing on the art. “Few young people are interested in
learning sugar painting,” he said, “I hope the younger generation can pay more attention to the
intangible heritage. It will sweeten their lives, I promise.”

Skywells, or tian jing, used to play a key role in keeping people’s homes cool in southern and
eastern China. Could they do it again today
Skywells were designed to cool people’s homes naturally before air-conditioning. When wind
blows above a skywell house, it can enter the indoor space through the opening. Because outdoor air is
often cooler than indoor air, the incoming wind travels down the walls to the bottom and create
airflows by replacing warmer indoor air, which rises and leaves through the opening.
Even though skywell buildings have existed in China for hundreds of years, in recent times they
have often been forgotten by people who prefer modern facilities. Over the past two decades, however,
they have been making a comeback. Yu Youhong, a craftsman, has spent more than 30 years bringing
back skywell homes. He expects skywells to be more and more popular among younger generations
because of their ventilation (通 风 ) and lighting functions, especially as sustainability (可 持 续 )
becomes more important for new buildings.
Architects are now looking towards the principles (原理) behind skywells while designing new
buildings to save energy. One example is a research centre in Jinan, Shandong province. Its 18-storey
glass-walled tower block has a giant skywell in the middle. The elevators, toilets and meeting rooms
are all situated around it, which helps improve the lighting and ventilation of the centre and reduces
the use of energy.
Although ancient “green wisdom” like skywells continues to inspire today’s architecture, there
are some challenges for bringing skywells into modern designs, according to Wang Zhengfeng, a
researcher at Leiden University in the Netherlands. Because traditional skywells are highly dependent
on their natural surroundings-for example, the amount of sunlight or rainfall-it is difficult to apply
them as a universal solution, she explains.
1．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A．What skywells look like. B．When skywells appeared.
C．Why skywells were designed. D．How skywells cool the house.
2．What does “making a comeback” probably mean in Paragraph 3
A．Showing importance. B．Regaining popularity.
C．Making improvements. D．Going back to the past.
3．Why does the writer mention the tower block in Paragraph 4
A．To introduce how the building was designed.
B．To explain why architects find skywells inspiring.
C．To show skywells can be used in today’s buildings.
D．To prove modern skywells differ from ancient ones.
4．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Skywells will be widely used in the future. B．Osing skywells needs careful consideration.
C．City environment is not suitable for skywells. D．Skywells can’t help solve environmental
problems.
5．What would be the best title for the passage
A．Skywells: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times
B．Skywells: The Secrets of Chinese Architecture
C．Skywells: A Green Structure Needs Improving
D．Skywells: A Traditional Design to Be Protected

In 1921, long before the Walt Disney Company turned Pooh (维尼熊) into an international star
of TV and films, Christopher Robin Milne was given a toy bear on his first birthday from his father, A．
A．Milne, who bought the stuffed animal from a store. The stuffed animal was named Edward Bear.
Years later, Edward was named Winnie. From the time Christopher Robin Milne was a baby until he
was about 8 years old, he would receive different stuffed animals.
A．A．Milne was a famous English writer. As he watched his son interest (互动) with Winnie
and friends, A．A．Milne thought his child’s interaction with the collection of animals would make a
great bedtime story. So Milne worked with artist Ernest H. Shepard and wrote the first Winnie the
Pooh poem, where Edward Bear was known as “Teddy Bear”. The writings appeared in Punch
magazine and in the book they wrote together, When We Were Young, which was published in 1924.
In a four-year period, three more books that focused on the bear and his team followed: 1926’s
Winnie-the-Pooh, 1927’s Now We Are Six, and 1928’s The House at Pooh Corner.
The books and poems about Pooh brought great success to the writer, and the characters became
favorites with young children and their families around the world. Their popularity led Disney to get
the rights (版权) to make films about the characters in 1961. Five years later, Pooh, Tiger, Piglet and
the rest of the team appeared on screen for the first time in Winnie-the-Pooh and the Honey Tree. The
characters later appeared in TV shows, movies, video games and short films. Pooh’s most recent
appearance came last year in the popular children’s program, Doc McSiuffins, where he was a special
guest.

Many people may throw away the pits inside fruits after eating them, but inheritors of nut
carving (核雕继承人) have turned them into artworks instead.
Weifang nut carving can date back to the Qing Dynasty. During that time, an old imperial
craftsman (皇家手艺人 ) Wang Dayan spread the skill to the local people in Shandong Province.
Craftsmen back then often used peach pits (桃核) to show off their artistic skills. Because of the high
level of carving skills needed, the traditional culture and its rich artistic theme, Weifang nut carving
was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (国家非物质文化遗产) in 2008.
“One nut, from 0.8 to 6 centimeters long, can be made into fan pendants (坠 饰 ), earrings,
buttons, seals and so on,” said Tan Wanhai, 48, an inheritor of Weifang nut carving. Tan has studied
the art of nut carving for 25 years and has created many nut carvings.
However, the craftsman also said that bringing this kind of artwork to life is not easy. “Unlike
some pits like olive pits which have a flat surface, each peach pit has its own special texture (质地)
like human fingerprints,” Tan said, adding that, craftsmen have to study each peach pit to carefully
plan out their artwork.
Nut carving craftsmen also need to have knowledge in many areas. According to Tan, they have
to master skills in painting, seal carving and calligraphy (书法) from many traditional cultures.
Thanks to their creative design and fresh ideas, Weifang nut carving artworks have been
increasingly welcomed by people in China. More people are learning the art and have even become
inheritors to pass down the skill to young people.
“Now, the number of inheritors is about 1,000. But I believe it could be bigger. More craftsmen
now give up the tradition of passing down the skill only through the family and open it up to anyone
who is interested in learning the skill,” said Tan.

①the high level of carving skills needed ②its rich artistic theme

Wanhai
A．Peach pits are smaller in size compared to other types of pits.
B．Each peach pit has a unique texture similar to human fingerprints.
C．Peach pits are harder to carve due to their irregular shape.
D．Peach pits are only suitable for creating certain types of nut carving artworks.

Jim Davis is an American cartoonist (漫画家), best known as creating the highly successful

his own company Paws, Inc. in 1981 in Muncie, Indiana, where he and his workers continued to
produce things about Garfield. He married Carolyn, a singer and teacher whom he met at the school,

On March 3rd, 2025, at the Juste Debout 2025 World Finals in Paris, two young Chinese street
dancers, 10-year-old Song Haoming and 12-year-old Fu Junxi took part in the Hip-Hop adult group.
They beat two of the best international pairs and reached the semifinals (半决赛). This is the best
result a Chinese team has ever achieved in the competition.

Raised by a single mother, Juleus Ghunta and his three siblings (兄弟姐妹) grew up in a poor
family. The oldest daughter was sent to school while Ghunta was kept at home.
When Ghunta finally went to school, he couldn’t catch up on his reading skills. Not only had he
missed early basic education, but he had not been exposed to (接触到) books. By the time he entered
the sixth grade, he could only spell his name, but couldn’t read or understand words. The situation was
made worse by some teachers who made him feel worthless. “They were not very patient, and not
very kind.” he recalled.
When Ghunta was about 12, a young teacher-in-training started a special reading program for
students. Ghunta was the first to sign up. Although he doesn’t remember her name, she became his
unsung hero— the person who changed his life. “The teacher was kind, patient, and creative,” he said.
“She only asked me to work hard and believe in myself.” Her encouragement and teaching methods
helped Ghunta unlock the gift of literacy (读写能力) and develop a deeper appreciation (欣赏) for
himself.
This experience marked a new chapter in Ghunta’s life. He graduated from elementary school
with a number of awards, including one for “most improved in reading”. Today, he has written two

Being confident isn’t just about what you know or think; confidence comes from how you feel in
your body too.
If your shoulders are hunched (驼背的) and your head’s down, you feel different from the way
you feel when you’re sitting or standing straight with your head up and your shoulders back. Try it for
yourself. How do you feel now
Study found that when you’re hunched with your arms and legs crossed and looking down, your
body releases (释放) chemicals. They can make you feel more worried. Doctor Maria Evans says ▲
. “When you stand with your back tall, legs apart (分开) and hands on hips, your body sends the
message to your mind that you feel confident and strong.”
Your body language doesn’t just affect how you feel, it tells other people how nervous or brave
you feel too. Think about someone you see as confident. How do they carry themselves Bring to
mind a movie or TV role you like for being brave or strong and picture how they sit, stand or walk.
See if you can do the same.
If you’re feeling nervous, maybe before you sit a test or do something new, you can feel more
confident by taking a power posture (姿势). Sit or stand up straight with both feet planted on the
ground. Stretch (伸展) your arms out above your head. Keep your shoulders down and your head up
to help you keep the confident feeling. Evans suggests doing a power posture for a few minutes before
school. Notice how it makes you and how your mood changes and becomes more confident.

How do you greet your friends People from different cultures have different answers: shaking
hands, nodding, bowing, kissing on the face.
But have you ever wondered how animals “say hello” to each other Here are some examples.
Everyone knows how similar chimpanzees (黑猩猩) are to humans. So it’s no surprise that their
greetings are also close to ours. The most common ways of greeting between chimpanzees are hand
touching and hugging. Sometimes they also kiss each other. Some chimpanzees can even learn simple
sign language.
Giraffes make few loud sounds. Their necks can reach two meters in length, making them useful
in greeting each other. When two giraffes meet, they may “shake” their necks and rub (摩擦) them
against each other. This is to feel how strong and tall the other is.
Dolphins greet one another with whistles (哨 声 ). They can hear other dolphins from many
kilometers away. Every dolphin has a different whistle. When two groups of dolphins meet, they each
choose a member to “talk” to the other group. The two groups can then travel together. Unlike most of
the other animals, dolphins are smart enough to learn a new language by inventing and copying new
sounds.

Zhang Fubai, 70, is a follower of sugar painting-the intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗
产) in Tianjin. He received the sweet business from his father, who was also a sugar painter.
“When I was a little boy, the children in the neighborhood would ask my father for sugar
paintings.” he said. At 9, he began to copy the flowers and insects his father painted, and would even
try to create sugar paintings himself. “I thought it was fun, but I never hoped to become a sugar
painter myself.”
In 1966, he finished middle school and became a carpenter (木匠) and part-time tailor (裁缝),
and worked on all kinds of drawings. He didn’t make up his mind to join the family business until
1980. In the following years, he would spend days seeing small animals in the fields and rivers. The
time he spent on watching these things and years of experience as a carpenter and tailor helped him
improve his painting skills.
Zhang is never short of buyers because he has created close to 200 sugar painting styles, and he
creates new styles every one or two years. If his buyers ask him for something he doesn’t know, he
will search on the Internet and try to design the styles in his head.
For now, he is quite worried about passing on the art. “Few young people are interested in
learning sugar painting,” he said, “I hope the younger generation can pay more attention to the
intangible heritage. It will sweeten their lives, I promise.”

Skywells, or tian jing, used to play a key role in keeping people’s homes cool in southern and
eastern China. Could they do it again today
Skywells were designed to cool people’s homes naturally before air-conditioning. When wind
blows above a skywell house, it can enter the indoor space through the opening. Because outdoor air is
often cooler than indoor air, the incoming wind travels down the walls to the bottom and create
airflows by replacing warmer indoor air, which rises and leaves through the opening.
Even though skywell buildings have existed in China for hundreds of years, in recent times they
have often been forgotten by people who prefer modern facilities. Over the past two decades, however,
they have been making a comeback. Yu Youhong, a craftsman, has spent more than 30 years bringing
back skywell homes. He expects skywells to be more and more popular among younger generations
because of their ventilation (通 风 ) and lighting functions, especially as sustainability (可 持 续 )
becomes more important for new buildings.
Architects are now looking towards the principles (原理) behind skywells while designing new
buildings to save energy. One example is a research centre in Jinan, Shandong province. Its 18-storey
glass-walled tower block has a giant skywell in the middle. The elevators, toilets and meeting rooms
are all situated around it, which helps improve the lighting and ventilation of the centre and reduces
the use of energy.
Although ancient “green wisdom” like skywells continues to inspire today’s architecture, there
are some challenges for bringing skywells into modern designs, according to Wang Zhengfeng, a
researcher at Leiden University in the Netherlands. Because traditional skywells are highly dependent
on their natural surroundings-for example, the amount of sunlight or rainfall-it is difficult to apply
them as a universal solution, she explains.
1．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A．What skywells look like. B．When skywells appeared.
C．Why skywells were designed. D．How skywells cool the house.
2．What does “making a comeback” probably mean in Paragraph 3
A．Showing importance. B．Regaining popularity.
C．Making improvements. D．Going back to the past.
3．Why does the writer mention the tower block in Paragraph 4
A．To introduce how the building was designed.
B．To explain why architects find skywells inspiring.
C．To show skywells can be used in today’s buildings.
D．To prove modern skywells differ from ancient ones.
4．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Skywells will be widely used in the future. B．Osing skywells needs careful consideration.
C．City environment is not suitable for skywells. D．Skywells can’t help solve environmental
problems.
5．What would be the best title for the passage
A．Skywells: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times
B．Skywells: The Secrets of Chinese Architecture
C．Skywells: A Green Structure Needs Improving
D．Skywells: A Traditional Design to Be Protected
