Once, a father and his son went to a kite flying festival. The son was very excited to see all the colourful kites in the sky and asked his father to buy him one. To make him happy, the father went to a nearby shop at the park and bought one.
The son started flying his kite excitedly. Soon it reached high up in the sky. After some time, the son thought to himself,“It seems like the string(绳子) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If I cut it, the kite will be free to fly even higher.” So he asked his father for a small knife and cut the string.
Without the string, the kite did go a little bit higher. However, it soon started to come down and landed on a tall tree. The son was sad. He expected that the kite would fly higher after he cut the string, not fall down. He turned to his father for a reason.
“Well, the string wasn't holding the kite down; it was actually helping it stay up when the wind was calm and guiding it in the right direction when the wind picked up,”the father explained.“When we cut the string, the kite lost that support and fell down.Similarly, in life, we may feel that limits, like rules or hard tasks, are holding us back,but they are actually guiding us in the right direction.”
( )19. Why did the son cut the string of the kite
A. To make the kite fly even higher. B. To see the kite more clearly.
C. To change the direction of the kite. D. To buy a new kite in a shop.
( )20. What does“it” refer to in Paragraph 3

C. A type of flying tool. D. Something that comes down.
( )22. What's the main idea of the text

B. The kite needed a much stronger string.

D. Flying kites is the son's favourite activity.

①In recent years, more and more people, especially teenagers, are facing weight problems. To solve it,d tree-Year Action Plan for Weight Management has been carried out.
②The plan mainly focuses on two key aspects: a balanced diet and regular exercise. Abalanced diet is the basis of good health. It means eating many kinds of foods, including plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins(低脂蛋白质), while reducing the intake(摄入) of high-fat, high-sugar and high-salr foods. For example, instead of having fried chicken every day, we can choose chicken breast. Vegetables like broccoli and carrots are rich in vitamins and minerals, and they should be included in our daily meals.
③Similarly, regular exercise is quite important. It can help burn calories and build up muscles. The plan suggests that teenagers should do at least 60 minutes of exercise every day. Activities such as running, riding a bike, and playing basketball are great choices.
④Schools play an important role in this plan. They have added more nutrition classes to teach students about healthy eating. Also, more PE classes are arranged(安排) to make sure students get enough exercise. Some schools even organize weight-management clubs, where students can share their experience and support each other in achieving their weight-management goals.
⑤Parents also need to cooperate(合作). They should set a good example by having a healthy lifestyle at home. For example, they can cook healthy meals together with their children and go for family walks regularly.
⑥The Three-Year Action Plan for Weight Management hopes to help people, especially teenagers, develop healthy habits and keep a proper weight, which will benefit them throughout their lives.
( )23. What is the main purpose of the plan
A. To add more PE classes in schools.
B. To help solve people's weight problems.
C. To encourage people to join sports clubs.
D. To lead people to lose weight without exercising.
( )24. What can we learn from the passage
A. Fewer adults are facing weight problems.
B. Regular exercise is more important than a balanced diet.
C. The plan advises teenagers to do at least 30 minutes' exercise every day.
D. Parents play an important role in the plan.
( )25. What's the correct structure of the passage
( )26. Which is the best title for the passage
A. Good Ways to Lose Weight B. Healthy Habits for a Healthy Weight
C. The Growing Problems of TeenagersD. The Importance of Exercise to Teenagers

Do you ever wonder why trees begin to bud(发芽) earlier in some cities Scientists finally found the
Light pollution is defined(定义) by the Lighting Research Centre as the harmful effect of outdoor lighting such as streetlights. Too much light at night destroys natural cycles and makes it hard to see stars and planets. It harms the environment more than we realize.
By studying some trees, researchers found out that trees lit by man-made lights at night start to bud about 7,5 days earlier than trees in natural darkness. And they found out that light has a more important ect than temperature when the buds come out. The early budding may cause problems for insects, which teeti on leaves, and the birds which then feed on them in turn. Professor Richard ffrench-Constant, who helped lead the research,explained that more than the budding of trees, the study shows the balance of the environment is at risk.“At the moment, caterpillars are born at just the right time to eat the new leaves that trees grow, and birds are born at the right time to eat these young caterpillars. But, when man-made lights make trees grow leaves earlier, it can mess up this natural timing and cause problems for both the caterpillars an( he birds,” he said.
Migratory birds(候鸟) are also negatively affected by light pollution. The light might confuse them and make them lose their flying sense. The situation might explain why some birds accidentally knock into buildings.
We need to do more research on how light pollution affects nature. If the problem was left to continue, it is believed that by 2100, spring would begin almost a full month earlier than it does today.
( )27. What is the main factor that causes trees to bud earlier according to the new findings
A. Higher temperatures. B. Light pollution.
C. Seasonal changes. D. Natural darkness.
( )28. What will happen if there is too much man-made light
A. People's eyesight will get hurt.
B. The ecosystem will lose its balance.
C. Animals' living habits will change suddenly.
D. People won't be able to see stars or planets at night.
( )29. What is the correct order of the following events
①Birds are born and have no caterpillars to eat.
②Caterpillars are born and have no leaves to eat.
③Trees don't grow new leaves at the right time.
A. ①②③ B. ②①③ C. ③②① D. ②③①
( )30. What will the writer most probably talk about next
A. The harm of light pollution to other animals.
B. The ways to solve the problems of light pollution.
C. The reasons why spring will begin earlier by 2100.
D. The importance of protecting the balance of nature.

My Favourite Way to Relax: Watching Movies
There are many effective ways to relax, and watching movies tops the list for me.
After a tiring week of study, I often choose to watch a movie on weekends. Action movies fill me with excitement while romantic ones touch my heart deeply. As the screen lights up, Iforget all my worries and tiredness.
Watching movies helps me relax both physically and mentally. It offers me a break from busy study life and allows me to recharge. Moreover, I can learn practical English expressions and improve my language sense by watching English movies.
