A
Four top picks for the best ocean videos for kids
A Plastic Ocean
Plastic Ocean documents what happens to plastic products after they’re thrown “away”. As the film-makers discover, there is no away. Plastic breaks up into smaller and smaller pieces that end up on beaches, or mistakenly eaten by animals. Craig Leeson, an award-winning journalist, teams up with Tanya Streeter, a world champion freediver. Together, they create a film that combines adventure, travel and science. Kids get to learn how everyday choices affect the health of our oceans
Run time: 1 hour, 42 minutes
Deep Sea
Shot by legendary videographers Howard and Michelle Hall, Deep Sea features the greatest hits of the underwater world. These include turtles, sharks and whales. Kids learn about interdependence among marine (海洋的) life, and why humans need healthy oceans. One reviewer said, “This video features a wide variety of sea life, my three-year-old never gets tired of watching it. As an adult, I am amazed at how many different species they show... and it is very informative... great for family time, educating children/students, etc.”
Run time: 40 minutes
The Blue Planet and Blue Planet Ⅱ
It’s a bit of a cheat to pick both Blue Planet programs, but they’re both outstandingly good. Each hour-long episode features incredible underwater footage (片段) and a key message about the importance of conservation. Some episodes featuring otherworldly-looking creatures are often a favorite with older kids However, some of these may be a little too frightening for little ones.
Run time: 50-60 min per episode
Shark with Steve Backshall
Taking part in conservation can be as simple as inspiring those around you to question what they think they already know. Few animals are as widely misunderstood as sharks. In Shark with Steve Backshall, naturalist Steve Backshall travels around the globe to meet numerous shark species. He shows the audience the real nature of sharks and inspires viewers to get on board with protecting these misunderstood ocean animals.

The groundhog (土拨鼠) has been considered a weather prophet (预言家) for many years in north America. According to legend, all winter long the furry brown groundhog sleeps in his comfortable underground home, or hole. On February 2, he wakes up. The groundhog is very hungry and comes out to search for food. If the sun is shinning, the groundhog will see his own shadow. The sight of his shadow gives him such a fright that he quickly returns to his hole. This event means that spring will not come for six more weeks. If the sun is not shining, there will be no shadow. The groundhog will not be scared and he will stay outside his hole. Spring will come very soon.
The idea that animals could foretell the weather probably began in ancient Europe. At the time, most of the people were farmers and the weather was very important to them. If spring came early they could begin the planting season early and have an early harvest. They found some animals were good weather prophets. On February 2, when they celebrated Candlemas Day, a religious holiday around the time winter ends, all the people watched for an animal leaving its hole. In Germany, farmers watched for a badge. In England farmers looked for a hedgehog (刺猬). They believed the animals could foretell the weather for the next six weeks.
When the early settlers came to North America there no badgers or hedgehogs near their homes. The farmers did not know when to plant their crops. In time they discovered an animal that left its hole at the end of winter. That animal was the groundhog, also called a woodchuck or a marmot. Every February 2 they watched for a groundhog. Finally, the day came to be called “Groundhog Day”. Many groundhog-watching clubs were formed. The members sometimes dressed in nightshirts and top hats made of silk. They would go to the hills in the dark morning and wait near a groundhog hole. Sometimes the groundhog-watching clubs would have other types of celebrations
4. Which of the following will frighten a groundhog according to Paragraph 1
A. His own shadow B. The shining sun
C. The coming spring D. His underground home
5. According to legend, if it is cloudy on February 2, _____ .
A. spring will come in March
B. winter will end in a short time
C. the groundhog will go on sleeping
D. the groundhog will refuse to go out
6. Why did ancient Europeans watch for animals on Candlemas Day
A. To amuse themselves.
B. To protect their harvest.
C. To say goodbye to winter.
D. To know when to plant crops.
7. The early North American settlers ____ .
A. wore formal clothes on Groundhog Day
B. tried to catch groundhogs near their homes
C. regarded the groundhog as a weather prophet
D. mistook groundhogs for badgers or hedgehogs

In many cities, shared bikes have transformed how people travel short distances. They are convenient, affordable, and eco-friendly. Yet in recent years, studies have shown that not only has the utilization rate of each bike dropped, but complaints about blocked walkways have also risen sharply. Walkways have become piled with abandoned and broken bikes. Residents in some neighborhoods say bike piles make it hard for parents with strollers or older people to move around safely.
The rise and fall of bike-sharing enthusiasm is not without precedent (先例) . In the early days, bright-colored bikes appeared everywhere, and ridership rose sharply. However, without proper regulations, many companies flooded the streets with more bikes than they could panies like Ofo poured far more bikes onto the streets than they can maintain. Many sat unrepaired for months, turning walkways into messy storage yards. By 2018, the company was in financial trouble, leaving hundreds of thousands of abandoned bikes to rust (生锈) in public spaces.
Some countries have taken action to address the situation. For example, Singapore established designated (指定的) bike parking zones and fines for improper parking. The Paris city government began introducing a licensing system for bike-sharing operators in 2018 to regulate the number of operators and control their fleets. However, in April 2023, Paris residents voted against renewing the operator’s licenses, resulting in an interruption of bike-sharing services in the city.
Despite challenges, bike-sharing remains popular, and cities are experimenting with solutions, trying to balance convenience, safety, and public space. While some residents complain about abandoned bikes, others value the flexibility these services provide. Urban planners should recognize that success depends on the responsibility of both providers and riders. The key may lie not in abandoning shared bikes, but in thoughtful planning, responsible use, and cooperation between operators, governments, and citizens. How they adapt together will determine whether bike-sharing becomes a sustainable urban asset or an ongoing problem.
8. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph
A. Many shared bikes are of poor quality
B. Residents have a high demand for shared bikes
C. Shared bikes have created urban inconveniences
D. Shared bikes pose safety risks to children and the elderly
9. What problem does the author want to stress by mentioning the Ofo company
A. The high cost of bike-sharing services.
B. The poor management of shared bikes.
C. The environmental impact of abandoned bikes.
D. The financial trouble of bike-sharing companies.
10. What can we learn about Paris’ bike-sharing licensing policy from paragraph 3
A. It failed to gain public support. B. It proved to be highly effective.
C. It was widely accepted by operators. D. It significantly worsened urban traffic.
11. Which statement will the author probably agree with
A. Strict regulations are key to sustainable urban services.
B. A successful bike-sharing system relies on joint efforts.
C. Governments should be responsible for bike-sharing issues.
D. It is challenging to balance riders’ needs and public concerns.
D
The British countryside, long recognized for its natural beauty, has seen a growing trend — people are picking up forgotten crafts. Many rural communities have begun to embrace old techniques and skills that were once on the verge of extinction. Artisans (工艺匠人) are turning to handcrafted goods as a response to mass production and the over-reliance on modern technology.
In recent years, the British government has shown support for cultural preservation through various initiatives. Programs designed to promote traditional crafts, like pottery, weaving, and woodworking, have gained popularity. One notable initiative is the Heritage Crafts Association, which aims to recognize the best of British craftsmanship and provide funding for full-time artisans. This support ignited a spark, inspiring a new generation of young artisans eager to learn the crafts their grandparents once practiced.
A key factor driving the revival is the increasing demand for sustainable, locally made products. In contrast to mass-produced items, handcrafted goods are viewed as a response to disposable consumer culture and a mark of sustainable quality, offering a personal touch that is hard to imitate. Dr. Emily Carter, a researcher at the University of the Arts London, explains, “Consumers are more conscious than ever about where their products come from. There’s a growing appreciation for items that are not only handmade but also tell a story.”
However, the road to revival is not without challenges. As a carpenter from Yorkshire points out, “We often face the challenge of being recognized on a larger scale. Our work is slow, precise, and on a small scale, which can be hard for people to appreciate in an age of instant gratification (即时满足).” Many artisans struggle to find a steady customer base, as the market for handcrafted goods is still niche (小众的). Despite these challenges, many remain committed to preserving their craft. For many artisans, the revival of their craft is more than just a business — it’s a way to reconnect with their traditions and ensure that the rich cultural heritage of Britain is passed down to future generations.
12. What trend is described in the first paragraph
A. The revival of traditional crafts. B. The decline of rural communities.
C. The shift towards mass production. D. The growing dependence on technology.
13. How does the Heritage Crafts Association help preserve traditional crafts
A. By training young craftsmen. B. By funding consumer purchases.
C. By advertising handcrafted goods. D. By supporting artisans’ livelihoods.
14. Which aspect of products are consumers more concerned about today
A. Their practical value. B. Their brand popularity.
C. Their cultural significance. D. Their environmental impact.
15. What can be inferred about the artisans according to the last paragraph
A. They focus on innovating the old techniques.
B. They fail to meet current consumer preferences.
C. They view their craft as a meaningful link to heritage.
D. They face the inevitable extinction of their traditional skills.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was once a psychologist at a children’s institution. One day, an adolescent boy turned up in the waiting room. I showed him into my office and pointed to a chair.
“Please sit down,” I said.
The boy, who I later learned was named David, wore a black raincoat that was buttoned up to his neck. Looking pale, he stared at his feet while wringing his hands nervously. He lost his father as an infant, and then lived with his mother and grandfather. But the year before David turned 13, his grandfather died and his mother’s life was taken away in a car accident. Now he was 14 and in foster care.
His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy,” he wrote, “is understandably depressed. He refuses to talk to others. Can you reach him ”
I stared at the note, feeling a heavy weight in my chest. I knew well that some pains run too deep for simple words of comfort. Psychology doesn’t have a magic cure for all human sorrows.
The first two times we met, without a word, David sat hunched up in the chair and only looked at the wall behind me. As he was about to leave after the second visit, I put my hand on his shoulder. He didn’t shrink back, but he didn’t look at me either.
“Come back next week, if you like,” I said. I hesitated a bit. Then I said, “I know it hurts — more than anyone can say.”
He came, and I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that, we played chess every Wednesday afternoon — in complete silence and without any eye contact.
Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chessboard and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me
“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,” I thought.
One afternoon David took off his raincoat and put it on the back of the chair. While setting up the chess pieces, his face seemed more alive.
Another afternoon, with David beside the chessboard, I thought about how little we know about therapy-about the mysterious process associated with healing. Suddenly, he looked up at me.
“It’s your turn,” he said his voice hoarse and rusty, as if he hadn’t used it in months.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: I was totally surprised, and the chess piece in my hand stopped halfway.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: After that day, David changed a lot.
