Online learning has many advantages. First, it is convenient. Students can study at home at any time they like. They don’t need to spend time traveling to school. If they miss a class, they can watch the video again later.

I decided to go on a skiing trip with my friends. I thought the exercise and mountain would be good for me. On the way, I looked out of the window of the plane at the snow on the mountains below. Before long, I was feeling more relaxed than I had in months, and I couldn’t wait to put on my skis.
However, when we finally arrived at the resort (度假胜地), I felt terrible. “I’m sorry,” the worker at our hotel said, “I’m afraid the ski lifts are closed because of strong winds.” Lying in bed that night, I could feel my disappointment, like a black cloud over my head.
At first, I was sure the vacation would be awful. However, the following morning I noticed a sign in the hotel advertising (为……做广告) salsa (萨尔萨舞) classes. I had never danced before, but when I opened the door, the teacher called, “Come on in. You’ll love it!”
In a matter of minutes, I’d learned some simple steps, and the music made me feel happier. After that, I went dancing every day, even after I was able to go skiing. As time went on, I realized I had found an activity I loved very much. When I got home, I found a local class, and I’ve been dancing salsa twice a week ever since.

（2026·河南商丘·一模）China has experienced big changes in its population policy over the years. These changes have helped the country to develop and improve people’s lives.
In the 1970s, China carried out the one-child policy to control its rapidly growing population. This policy encouraged families to have only one child. It successfully slowed down population growth and cut down on the use of things such as food and water. However, it also caused problems, such as an aging (变老的) population and fewer young workers.
To solve these problems, the government changed the one-child policy. In 2016, the two-child policy was carried out, allowing families to have two children. This helped balance the population structure (结构) by increasing the number of young people. In 2021, the policy was further relaxed to the three-child policy, encouraging families to have more children if they wished.
These changes have brought many advantages. First, they help support the old. With more young people working, they can provide better support for the elderly in society. Second, a balanced population means more workers can help the economy (经济) grow. More children also mean a higher need for education, toys, and other services, which helps with the growth of the economy. Third, families now can choose the number of children they want, leading to happier family lives.
In a word, China’s population policy has changed to meet new challenges. From the one-child policy to the three-child policy, these changes have improved the lives of many people. They make sure of a healthier population structure and a stronger economy for the future.

（2026·河南·一模）Zhang Ming is a 15-year-old student in Zhengzhou. Like many other children, he has a lot of after-school classes on weekends. But things changed a lot this term.
“My parents used to take me to different after-school classes every weekend. I felt very tired and had no time to play,” Zhang said. “Now I have more free time to do what I like.”
Thanks to the “double reduction” policy (双减政策), primary and junior high school students have less homework and fewer after-school classes. Students can have more time to develop their hobbies and improve their abilities.
Many students now take part in different kinds of after-school clubs. Some join sports clubs to play basketball, football or run. Some join art clubs to draw, sing or dance. Others join reading clubs, science clubs or cooking clubs. These activities make their school life more colorful.
Teachers also change their teaching ways. They try to make classes more interesting and help students learn more in class. Students no longer need to spend too much time on homework. They can go to bed earlier and keep healthy.
Parents have different ideas about this policy. Some are happy because their children feel less stressed. Some still worry about their children’s grades. But most parents agree that the policy is good for children’s growth.
Everyone hopes that students can study happily and grow up in a healthy way. The “double reduction” policy is just a good start.

（2026·河南商丘·一模）It’s normal to feel nervous before a test. But sometimes, this nervous feeling can become very strong. You might feel sick, get a headache, or feel very scared or sad. This is called test anxiety (焦虑). Test anxiety can surely do harm to a student’s performance and overall well-being.
Dealing with test anxiety is important—it’s even been found that students with greater test anxiety get lower grades than those who have less anxiety. And researchers in Turkey wanted to see if there was a simple way to help students with this feeling.
In Turkey, students in Grade Eight—usually around 14 years old—take a centralized high school entrance exam that tests them in math, science, social studies, foreign languages and Turkish. They are under a lot of pressure to do well in the exam to get into the best high schools, which will then help students get into top universities.
For the study, 162 eighth-grade students in two different middle schools were introduced to a breathing exercise program three months before the exam. The program was used to help them relax and control their pressure. Twice a week over eight weeks, the students were led through a 15- to 20-minute program of breathing exercises, which they did before school. The program included things like using the diaphragm (隔膜) to take deep breaths or doing the “lion’s breath” from yoga. Students were also taught ways to stop scary or stressful thoughts.
Before and after the program, the students completed a test that scored their levels of anxiety. And by the end of the eight-week program, researchers found that their anxiety scores declined by 11%.
The researchers said this shows that breathing exercises at school can help students feel less nervous before big tests. It’s simple and doesn’t cost much.
So, if you have a test coming up and you feel worried, take a deep breath—it’s a simple trick that works!
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
1．Why did the writer mention the comparison in Paragraph 2
A．To explain different kinds of anxiety.
B．To show how test anxiety can influence grades.
C．To tell us that test anxiety is not a serious problem.
D．To compare Turkish students and American students.
2．What can we infer from the research results about breathing exercises
A．They work only when mixed with other relaxation ways.
B．They provide a useful and easy way to cut down anxiety.
C．Students’ anxiety completely disappeared after eight weeks.
D．They are more useful to younger students than eighth-graders.
3．What does the underlined word “declined” mean in English
A．Ran out. B．Gave off. C．Took over. D．Went down.
4．What is the writer trying to tell students at the end of the text
A．Deep breathing can help when you are nervous.
B．Doing fun things before a test is always helpful.
C．The best way to do well is to talk about your feelings.
D．Feeling nervous before a test means you are not ready.
5．What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the text
A．To show the importance of deep breathing.
B．To offer students different ways to control stress.
C．To tell us to deal with test anxiety by doing breathing exercises.
D．To show how to prepare for high school entrance exams.
【答案】1．B 2．B 3．D 4．A 5．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了考试焦虑对学生的影响，并通过土耳其的一项研究，证明呼吸训练是一种简单、低成本、有效的缓解考试焦虑的方法，最终向学生推荐了深呼吸这一减压技巧。
1．第二段“it’s even been found that students with greater test anxiety get lower grades than those who have less anxiety”可知，作者做此对比是为了说明考试焦虑会影响学生的成绩。
2．第五段“And by the end of the eight-week program, researchers found that their anxiety scores declined by 11%.”及第六段“It’s simple and doesn’t cost much.”表明呼吸训练是一种有效且简单的缓解焦虑的方法。
3．前文提到研究目的是帮助学生缓解压力、降低焦虑，因此“anxiety scores declined by 11%”表示焦虑分数下降了11%，declined意为“下降”，与Went down同义。
4．最后一段“So, if you have a test coming up and you feel worried, take a deep breath—it’s a simple trick that works!”表明作者想告诉学生：紧张时深呼吸可以帮助缓解情绪。
5．文章围绕“考试焦虑”展开，核心是介绍呼吸训练这一缓解方法，目的是告诉学生可以通过呼吸训练来应对考试焦虑。
（2026·河南周口·一模）Sugar painting, as the name suggests, is a painting made of sugar. It’s the sugar for us to taste and the painting for us to admire.
Since the Warring States Period (战国时期), the ancient people loved sweets and developed methods of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making. And sugar, the precious product once only served to the emperors and princes, also went into common people’s homes. With the cultural and economic (经济的) development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sweetness. In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.
Sugar painting is different from normal painting. Sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the material, a spoon as the “paintbrush”, and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce this work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done.
However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass down the art except those aging sugar painters.
For most people, painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand. However, sugar painting has pulled the art down into people’s daily lives.

Second, we should save water. Water is necessary for life. We should turn off the taps after using them. We can collect rainwater for watering flowers and cleaning the floor. We shouldn’t waste any drop of water.
Third, we should reduce rubbish. We should throw rubbish into dustbins instead of throwing it everywhere. We can also sort (分类) rubbish into different groups. Recycling paper, glass and plastic is helpful.
Fourth, we should save energy. We should turn off lights and TVs when we leave a room. We can walk or ride bikes for short trips instead of taking cars. Buses are also better than private cars.
Finally, we should tell people around us the importance of protecting the environment. Everyone should realize that protecting the earth is protecting ourselves.

（25-26九年级上·河北邯郸·月考）Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure. This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser.
We mustn’t be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of losing. Because of that, Edison achieved success. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb (灯泡). When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of those who achieved success although they failed many times.
Losing is not very disgraceful. It can bring us something good and it can be helpful. We must accept our failure and take advantage of it. Take action to walk out of failure. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she had the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we lose a competition, we should offer our congratulations to the winners and share their happiness. That way, we won’t feel sorry for our failure.
In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they can finally win.
1．What can we learn from every failure according to the text
A．A way of life. B．Something valuable.
C．A secret of success. D．The meaning of life.
2．In the writer’s eyes, why did Edison achieve success
A．He got help from others. B．He avoided possible mistakes.
C．He looked on the bright side of losing. D．He happened to make it.
3．What does the underlined word “disgraceful” probably mean
A．Bad. B．Personal. C．Dangerous. D．Interesting.
4．What does the writer advise the losers to do in a competition
A．To express regrets. B．To forget the failure.
C．To congratulate the winners. D．To join in another competition.
5．What is the best title for the text

1．第一段指出“we can learn something valuable from every failure.”，说明我们可以从每次失败中学到有价值的东西。
2．第二段指出爱迪生成功的原因“When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work.”，说明他看待失败的积极态度帮助他取得成功。
3．第三段指出失败能带来好处、有帮助，“Losing is not very disgraceful.” 说明“disgraceful”是负面含义，意为“糟糕的、可耻的”，与“bad”意思最接近。
4．第四段指出面对失败应有的态度“If we lose a competition, we should offer our congratulations to the winners and share their happiness.”，说明应该祝贺获胜者。
5．全文围绕如何正确面对失败展开，介绍了从失败中学习、坦然接受、祝贺对手等做法，因此“关于如何成为一个好的失败者的建议”最能概括全文主旨。
（2026·河南·模拟预测）
Have you ever noticed how a good song can completely change your day For students, music is more than just fun—it is a powerful tool that can positively influence your daily life in several ways, and modern science helps us understand how this works.
When you feel stressed about schoolwork or exams, spending some time listening to gentle music can actually slow your heart rate and help your body and mind relax. On the other hand, if you are feeling tired, putting on some happy music can quickly make you feel more positive and energetic. This happens because music has the ability to influence the natural chemicals in your brain that are responsible for your mood and emotions.
Music also has a strong connection with your body. There is a special system in your brain known as the auditory-motor circuit (听觉-运动回路). It connects hearing with movement. This is why you naturally tap your foot to a song with a good beat. Doctors use this powerful connection in a method called music therapy (疗法). For example, they help patients who have lost the ability to walk by having them practice walking to music with a clear rhythm (节奏). The rhythm helps their brain remember how to move their legs.
Also, many students find that playing soft music in the background helps them focus better on studying or homework. The music can help their brains stay on task without getting bored. So, the next time you listen to your favorite songs, remember—it’s more than a hobby. It’s like exercise for your mind—an enjoyable activity that can improve your feelings, help you focus, and improve your body’s control.

（2026·河南·一模）China has a long history of more than five thousand years and is famous for its great ancient inventions all over the world. Among the Four Great Inventions of ancient China, papermaking plays one of the most important roles and has greatly influenced the whole world’s cultural development.
Before paper was invented in ancient times, Chinese people had to write words on heavy bamboo slips, wooden boards or hard stone walls. Bamboo slips were too heavy for people to carry around easily, and it needed a lot of bamboo materials. Stone writing was even harder to make and impossible to move. At that time, keeping written records was very difficult and inconvenient for common people. Knowledge and culture could not spread quickly to other places.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, a great man named Cai Lun made a huge improvement to papermaking technology. He used cheap and common materials such as tree bark, old broken cloth, fishing nets and plant fibers to make new paper. The paper he invented was light in weight, low in cost, easy to write on and simple to produce in large numbers. Soon this kind of paper became popular across the whole country and replaced bamboo slips little by little.
After papermaking spread to other countries and areas around the world, it helped human knowledge, stories and culture spread much faster and farther than before. It made reading and writing easier for common people and pushed the development of education and culture all over the world. Even in modern society, we still use paper in our study, work and daily life every day. Papermaking is not only a great ancient invention, but also a precious cultural treasure that we should always remember and respect.
1．Papermaking is ________ the Four Great Inventions of ancient China.
A．all of B．one of C．none of
2．What did ancient people write on before paper was invented
A．Bamboo slips and stones.
B．Modern notebooks.

（2026·河南·模拟预测）In a very cold January, there was heavy snow everywhere. A small and abandoned (被遗弃的) dog came to the Laceys’ house. Doris Lacey, a 12-year-old girl, found the dog shaking with cold and fear while cleaning snow. “Come here!” she called softly. The dog wagged its tail and followed her inside.
“Where did that dog come from ” Doris’ mom asked.
Her dad, Mr. Lacey, who couldn’t go to work because of the snow, said, “I don’t know where it came from, but I know for sure where it is going.” Doris hugged the dog but stayed silent.
The heavy snow made roads unsafe, so Mr. Lacey let the dog sleep in the basement (地下室) for several days. Doris fed it every day while her mother thought it was a waste of food. The puppy never cried at night or broke things. It never came upstairs unless it was invited. It was a good dog.
For days, the well-behaved puppy waited politely on the top basement step, listening to the talk in the kitchen. Doris wanted to keep it but knew her parents didn’t like keeping a pet. She secretly hoped the snow would never melt.
After nine days, sunshine returned. Doris sat crying in the living room, sure her father would take the puppy to the crowded city shelter (收容所). Suddenly, her parents appeared smiling. “We’re keeping him,” her mother said,
Her dad explained he’d visited the shelter yesterday. “It’s cold and crowded. This good dog deserves better,” he said, patting the puppy’s head. “He’s brought us joy.”

（2026·河南平顶山·一模）Feeling sweaty (流汗的) from a summer heat wave Researchers from University of California have developed a new device (装置) that produces energy from the sweat on your fingertips.
The device is called a biofuel cell (生物燃料细胞). From the outside, it looks like a simple piece of film connected to electrodes (电极). When you stick the biofuel cell to your finger, it takes in sweat. The enzymes (酶) on the electrodes then help to produce electricity.
Besides using the sweat, the device also produces small amounts of energy when it is pressed, so daily activities like typing, texting, or playing the piano are all good ways to produce electricity.
Some people may think it queer to choose fingertips as the source of sweat, but in fact, they are the sweatiest part of the body. Each finger produces between 100 and 1,000 times more sweat than most other areas.
The device is the most effective on body energy-producer. Before it is invented, most power producing devices require wearers to perform exercise or depend on other sources, such as sunlight or large changes in temperature. But the new device uses a system to produce electricity from sweat in your fingertips, even if you are sleeping or sitting quietly. One of the researchers Lu Yin said, “Unlike other sweat-powered devices,this one requires no exercise, no physical input from the wearer in order to be useful. This work is a step forward to make devices more practical and convenient. You don’t need to worry about it being too rigid or feeling strange. You can comfortably wear it for a long time.”
However, at the moment, the device can only store up a little bit of power. And it would take about three weeks of constant (不断的) wear to power a smart phone, but the researchers hope to increase its power in the future.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
1．The biofuel cell can
A．protect fingertips B．cause a heat wave
C．make use of sweat D．develop new devices
2．What does the underlined word “queer” mean in Paragraph4
A．Strange. B．Unsafe.
C．Dirty. D．Traditional.
3．Wearing the biofuel cell, who can make the biofuel cell work
①Edward has a good sleep in his bed.
②Betty sends a text message to her mom.
③Nick plays basketball with his classmates.
④Lily dried the sweat on her hands with a fan.
A．②③④ B．①③④ C．①②④ D．①②③
4．What is the advantage of the biofuel cell
A．It can influence the temperature greatly.
B．It can power a smart phone in a day.
C．It makes you comfortable when you are in pain.
D．It works for a long time when you wear it.
5．What’s the best title for the text

（2026·河南·一模）Volunteering has become one of the most popular activities among teenagers in recent years. More and more middle school students choose to spend their free time doing volunteer work instead of playing computer games or watching videos at home. Volunteering is not only a great way to help people in need, but also an important chance for teenagers to improve themselves and grow into responsible persons.
On weekends and holidays, student volunteers take part in different kinds of volunteer activities. Some groups go to city parks and streets to pick up rubbish, clean public benches and plant small trees to protect the environment. Some volunteers visit the old people’s home nearby. They talk patiently with the lonely elderly people, read newspapers and interesting stories for them, help wash their clothes and clean their rooms carefully. Other volunteers go to poor mountain villages to help little children with their school subjects after class.
Volunteering brings plenty of advantages to teenagers. It teaches them responsibility, patience and kindness. When volunteers help others solve problems, they can also make new friends and learn many useful life skills that they cannot learn from textbooks. Moreover, seeing the smiles on other people’s faces makes volunteers feel warm, proud and full of happiness. If you have enough free time, please join volunteer groups.

（2026·河南商丘·一模）One morning at school, my classmate Sherry looked at me and asked, “Why are you wearing your red dress today Why aren’t you wearing the blue one Today is a blue-dress day.”
Her question made me feel uncomfortable. I only had two dresses. One was red and the other was blue. In the 1960s, girls had to wear dresses to school. And I wore the two dresses in turn. That day, my blue dress was washed but not dry yet.
I didn’t know that other kids had noticed. Embarrassed, I said, “Oh… I spilled (洒出) some coffee on the blue one this morning.” Sherry wasn’t unkind, but her question made me wonder, “Am I poor ”
After school, I changed into my play clothes and sat in the tree outside our house. Our house was white and small, but it was bigger than any other place we had lived before. Mom bought it after Dad passed away suddenly.
My friends lived in big houses with pretty bedrooms. But strangely, they liked coming to my house best. I guessed it was because they liked my mother. Mom would make chocolate cakes. After dinner, she’d play board games with us around the kitchen table and sing songs with us. As for my friends’ parents, they were nice, but they didn’t spend time with us as Mom did.
That evening, as Mom prepared dinner, I finally asked, “Are we poor ” She smiled softly. “We don’t have extras (额外之物), but we can get by. We have a warm house, clothes to wear, and good food. Look! We won’t be hungry tonight.”
I looked at the fried chicken, the sandwiches and the fresh vegetables on the table. Suddenly, I felt rich in a way that really mattered.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

I decided to go on a skiing trip with my friends. I thought the exercise and mountain would be good for me. On the way, I looked out of the window of the plane at the snow on the mountains below. Before long, I was feeling more relaxed than I had in months, and I couldn’t wait to put on my skis.
However, when we finally arrived at the resort (度假胜地), I felt terrible. “I’m sorry,” the worker at our hotel said, “I’m afraid the ski lifts are closed because of strong winds.” Lying in bed that night, I could feel my disappointment, like a black cloud over my head.
At first, I was sure the vacation would be awful. However, the following morning I noticed a sign in the hotel advertising (为……做广告) salsa (萨尔萨舞) classes. I had never danced before, but when I opened the door, the teacher called, “Come on in. You’ll love it!”
In a matter of minutes, I’d learned some simple steps, and the music made me feel happier. After that, I went dancing every day, even after I was able to go skiing.

（2026·河南商丘·一模）China has experienced big changes in its population policy over the years. These changes have helped the country to develop and improve people’s lives.
In the 1970s, China carried out the one-child policy to control its rapidly growing population. This policy encouraged families to have only one child. It successfully slowed down population growth and cut down on the use of things such as food and water. However, it also caused problems, such as an aging (变老的) population and fewer young workers.
To solve these problems, the government changed the one-child policy. In 2016, the two-child policy was carried out, allowing families to have two children. This helped balance the population structure (结构) by increasing the number of young people. In 2021, the policy was further relaxed to the three-child policy, encouraging families to have more children if they wished.
These changes have brought many advantages. First, they help support the old. With more young people working, they can provide better support for the elderly in society. Second, a balanced population means more workers can help the economy (经济) grow. More children also mean a higher need for education, toys, and other services, which helps with the growth of the economy. Third, families now can choose the number of children they want, leading to happier family lives.
In a word, China’s population policy has changed to meet new challenges. From the one-child policy to the three-child policy, these changes have improved the lives of many people. They make sure of a healthier population structure and a stronger economy for the future.

（2026·河南·一模）Zhang Ming is a 15-year-old student in Zhengzhou. Like many other children, he has a lot of after-school classes on weekends. But things changed a lot this term.
“My parents used to take me to different after-school classes every weekend. I felt very tired and had no time to play,” Zhang said. “Now I have more free time to do what I like.”
Thanks to the “double reduction” policy (双减政策), primary and junior high school students have less homework and fewer after-school classes. Students can have more time to develop their hobbies and improve their abilities.
Many students now take part in different kinds of after-school clubs. Some join sports clubs to play basketball, football or run. Some join art clubs to draw, sing or dance. Others join reading clubs, science clubs or cooking clubs. These activities make their school life more colorful.
Teachers also change their teaching ways. They try to make classes more interesting and help students learn more in class. Students no longer need to spend too much time on homework. They can go to bed earlier and keep healthy.
Parents have different ideas about this policy. Some are happy because their children feel less stressed. Some still worry about their children’s grades. But most parents agree that the policy is good for children’s growth.
Everyone hopes that students can study happily and grow up in a healthy way. The “double reduction” policy is just a good start.

（2026·河南商丘·一模）It’s normal to feel nervous before a test. But sometimes, this nervous feeling can become very strong. You might feel sick, get a headache, or feel very scared or sad. This is called test anxiety (焦虑). Test anxiety can surely do harm to a student’s performance and overall well-being.
Dealing with test anxiety is important—it’s even been found that students with greater test anxiety get lower grades than those who have less anxiety. And researchers in Turkey wanted to see if there was a simple way to help students with this feeling.
In Turkey, students in Grade Eight—usually around 14 years old—take a centralized high school entrance exam that tests them in math, science, social studies, foreign languages and Turkish. They are under a lot of pressure to do well in the exam to get into the best high schools, which will then help students get into top universities.
For the study, 162 eighth-grade students in two different middle schools were introduced to a breathing exercise program three months before the exam. The program was used to help them relax and control their pressure. Twice a week over eight weeks, the students were led through a 15- to 20-minute program of breathing exercises, which they did before school. The program included things like using the diaphragm (隔膜) to take deep breaths or doing the “lion’s breath” from yoga. Students were also taught ways to stop scary or stressful thoughts.
Before and after the program, the students completed a test that scored their levels of anxiety. And by the end of the eight-week program, researchers found that their anxiety scores declined by 11%.
The researchers said this shows that breathing exercises at school can help students feel less nervous before big tests. It’s simple and doesn’t cost much.
So, if you have a test coming up and you feel worried, take a deep breath—it’s a simple trick that works!
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
1．Why did the writer mention the comparison in Paragraph 2
A．To explain different kinds of anxiety.
B．To show how test anxiety can influence grades.
C．To tell us that test anxiety is not a serious problem.
D．To compare Turkish students and American students.
2．What can we infer from the research results about breathing exercises
A．They work only when mixed with other relaxation ways.
B．They provide a useful and easy way to cut down anxiety.

C．The best way to do well is to talk about your feelings.

（2026·河南周口·一模）Sugar painting, as the name suggests, is a painting made of sugar. It’s the sugar for us to taste and the painting for us to admire.
Since the Warring States Period (战国时期), the ancient people loved sweets and developed methods of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making. And sugar, the precious product once only served to the emperors and princes, also went into common people’s homes. With the cultural and economic (经济的) development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sweetness. In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.
Sugar painting is different from normal painting. Sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the material, a spoon as the “paintbrush”, and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce this work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done.
However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass down the art except those aging sugar painters.
For most people, painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand. However, sugar painting has pulled the art down into people’s daily lives. Through it, we may see the spiritual support of the ancient people across centuries. Now, sugar painting has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. Therefore, the art should be remembered, missed and passed down.
1．What does the underlined word “precious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A．Valuable and expensive. B．Useful and cheap.
C．Special but worthless. D．Simple but priceless.
2．When did sugar painting appear
A．In the Warring States Period. B．In the Tang Dynasty.
C．In the Yuan Dynasty. D．In the Ming Dynasty.
3．Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly
A．To show their excellent skills. B．To prevent the syrup from becoming hard.
C．To protect the spoon and the table. D．To reduce people’s waiting time.
4．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards today’s sugar painting according to Paragraph 4
A．Uncaring. B．Doubtful. C．Worried. D．Unclear.
5．Which can be a suitable title for the passage
A．Exploring the Art of Sugar Painting B．Improving the Taste of Sugar Painting
C．Effects of the Sugar Producing Technology D．Ways to Change the Future of Sugar Painting
（2026·河南·一模）When we talk about the environment, we always think of trees, rivers, animals and so on. In fact, the environment is very important to everyone. However, it is getting worse and worse now. People pollute the earth, and we must do something to protect it.
First, we should plant more trees. Trees can make the air clean and fresh. They can also stop the wind from blowing the earth away. Each year, we should plant as many trees as possible.
Second, we should save water. Water is necessary for life. We should turn off the taps after using them. We can collect rainwater for watering flowers and cleaning the floor. We shouldn’t waste any drop of water.
Third, we should reduce rubbish. We should throw rubbish into dustbins instead of throwing it everywhere. We can also sort (分类) rubbish into different groups. Recycling paper, glass and plastic is helpful.
Fourth, we should save energy. We should turn off lights and TVs when we leave a room. We can walk or ride bikes for short trips instead of taking cars. Buses are also better than private cars.
Finally, we should tell people around us the importance of protecting the environment. Everyone should realize that protecting the earth is protecting ourselves.
Protecting the environment is not a difficult thing. It needs everyone’s effort. If everyone takes action, our world will become more and more beautiful.

（2026·河南周口·一模）The yeti is a creature (生物) from old mountain stories. It is said to live in the Himalaya Mountains. Some people believe the yeti exists (存在). The yeti walks on two legs like a person. But it is much taller and has thick hair all over its body. Some people think it might be a kind of ancient ape that no longer lives today.
The yeti shows up in many stories from the people who live in the Himalayas. In some stories for children, the yeti is scary and wild. These stories tell kids to stay far away from wild animals. But in other stories, the yeti is kind and helpful. One story tells about a yeti who brings food and water to a holy (神圣的) man living in a cave. In another tale, a group of yetis take care of a special place for Buddhist people.
In the year 326 BC, a man named Alexander the Great heard about the yeti while traveling through Kashmir. He wanted to see one, but the people told him it was not possible. They said the yetis lived too high up in the cold mountains.
A long time later, in 1951, two men from Britain named Eric Shipton and Michael Ward found something strange. They were climbing Mount Qomolangma when they saw big footprints in the snow. Shipton took pictures of the prints. In one photo, an ice pick was placed next to the print to show its large size. The footprint looked like a human foot, but it was much bigger and had a strange shape.
Many people have searched for the yeti since then. Some found more footprints. But most experts now think the prints were made by bears. Still, many people enjoy the stories and believe the yeti might be real.

Have you ever noticed how a good song can completely change your day For students, music is more than just fun—it is a powerful tool that can positively influence your daily life in several ways, and modern science helps us understand how this works.
When you feel stressed about schoolwork or exams, spending some time listening to gentle music can actually slow your heart rate and help your body and mind relax. On the other hand, if you are feeling tired, putting on some happy music can quickly make you feel more positive and energetic. This happens because music has the ability to influence the natural chemicals in your brain that are responsible for your mood and emotions.
Music also has a strong connection with your body. There is a special system in your brain known as the auditory-motor circuit (听觉-运动回路). It connects hearing with movement. This is why you naturally tap your foot to a song with a good beat. Doctors use this powerful connection in a method called music therapy (疗法). For example, they help patients who have lost the ability to walk by having them practice walking to music with a clear rhythm (节奏). The rhythm helps their brain remember how to move their legs.
Also, many students find that playing soft music in the background helps them focus better on studying or homework. The music can help their brains stay on task without getting bored. So, the next time you listen to your favorite songs, remember—it’s more than a hobby. It’s like exercise for your mind—an enjoyable activity that can improve your feelings, help you focus, and improve your body’s control.

（2026·河南·一模）China has a long history of more than five thousand years and is famous for its great ancient inventions all over the world. Among the Four Great Inventions of ancient China, papermaking plays one of the most important roles and has greatly influenced the whole world’s cultural development.
Before paper was invented in ancient times, Chinese people had to write words on heavy bamboo slips, wooden boards or hard stone walls. Bamboo slips were too heavy for people to carry around easily, and it needed a lot of bamboo materials. Stone writing was even harder to make and impossible to move. At that time, keeping written records was very difficult and inconvenient for common people. Knowledge and culture could not spread quickly to other places.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, a great man named Cai Lun made a huge improvement to papermaking technology. He used cheap and common materials such as tree bark, old broken cloth, fishing nets and plant fibers to make new paper. The paper he invented was light in weight, low in cost, easy to write on and simple to produce in large numbers. Soon this kind of paper became popular across the whole country and replaced bamboo slips little by little.
After papermaking spread to other countries and areas around the world, it helped human knowledge, stories and culture spread much faster and farther than before. It made reading and writing easier for common people and pushed the development of education and culture all over the world. Even in modern society, we still use paper in our study, work and daily life every day. Papermaking is not only a great ancient invention, but also a precious cultural treasure that we should always remember and respect.

（2026·河南·模拟预测）In a very cold January, there was heavy snow everywhere. A small and abandoned (被遗弃的) dog came to the Laceys’ house. Doris Lacey, a 12-year-old girl, found the dog shaking with cold and fear while cleaning snow. “Come here!” she called softly. The dog wagged its tail and followed her inside.
“Where did that dog come from ” Doris’ mom asked.
Her dad, Mr. Lacey, who couldn’t go to work because of the snow, said, “I don’t know where it came from, but I know for sure where it is going.” Doris hugged the dog but stayed silent.
The heavy snow made roads unsafe, so Mr. Lacey let the dog sleep in the basement (地下室) for several days. Doris fed it every day while her mother thought it was a waste of food. The puppy never cried at night or broke things. It never came upstairs unless it was invited. It was a good dog.
For days, the well-behaved puppy waited politely on the top basement step, listening to the talk in the kitchen. Doris wanted to keep it but knew her parents didn’t like keeping a pet. She secretly hoped the snow would never melt.
After nine days, sunshine returned. Doris sat crying in the living room, sure her father would take the puppy to the crowded city shelter (收容所). Suddenly, her parents appeared smiling. “We’re keeping him,” her mother said,
Her dad explained he’d visited the shelter yesterday. “It’s cold and crowded. This good dog deserves better,” he said, patting the puppy’s head. “He’s brought us joy.”

（2026·河南平顶山·一模）Feeling sweaty (流汗的) from a summer heat wave Researchers from University of California have developed a new device (装置) that produces energy from the sweat on your fingertips.
The device is called a biofuel cell (生物燃料细胞). From the outside, it looks like a simple piece of film connected to electrodes (电极). When you stick the biofuel cell to your finger, it takes in sweat. The enzymes (酶) on the electrodes then help to produce electricity.
Besides using the sweat, the device also produces small amounts of energy when it is pressed, so daily activities like typing, texting, or playing the piano are all good ways to produce electricity.
Some people may think it queer to choose fingertips as the source of sweat, but in fact, they are the sweatiest part of the body. Each finger produces between 100 and 1,000 times more sweat than most other areas.
The device is the most effective on body energy-producer. Before it is invented, most power producing devices require wearers to perform exercise or depend on other sources, such as sunlight or large changes in temperature. But the new device uses a system to produce electricity from sweat in your fingertips, even if you are sleeping or sitting quietly. One of the researchers Lu Yin said, “Unlike other sweat-powered devices,this one requires no exercise, no physical input from the wearer in order to be useful. This work is a step forward to make devices more practical and convenient. You don’t need to worry about it being too rigid or feeling strange. You can comfortably wear it for a long time.”
However, at the moment, the device can only store up a little bit of power. And it would take about three weeks of constant (不断的) wear to power a smart phone, but the researchers hope to increase its power in the future.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
1．The biofuel cell can
A．protect fingertips B．cause a heat wave
C．make use of sweat D．develop new devices
2．What does the underlined word “queer” mean in Paragraph4
A．Strange. B．Unsafe.
C．Dirty. D．Traditional.
3．Wearing the biofuel cell, who can make the biofuel cell work

②Betty sends a text message to her mom.
③Nick plays basketball with his classmates.
④Lily dried the sweat on her hands with a fan.
A．②③④ B．①③④ C．①②④ D．①②③
4．What is the advantage of the biofuel cell
A．It can influence the temperature greatly.
B．It can power a smart phone in a day.
C．It makes you comfortable when you are in pain.
D．It works for a long time when you wear it.
5．What’s the best title for the text

（2026·河南·一模）Volunteering has become one of the most popular activities among teenagers in recent years. More and more middle school students choose to spend their free time doing volunteer work instead of playing computer games or watching videos at home. Volunteering is not only a great way to help people in need, but also an important chance for teenagers to improve themselves and grow into responsible persons.
On weekends and holidays, student volunteers take part in different kinds of volunteer activities. Some groups go to city parks and streets to pick up rubbish, clean public benches and plant small trees to protect the environment. Some volunteers visit the old people’s home nearby.

（25-26九年级下·河南·月考）From red apples and yellow lemons to blueberries and green melons, fruits come in different colors. Why do different kinds of fruits have so many colors
According to an expert from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, fruit colors actually come from their different pigments (色素), such as red or yellow carotenoids and blue or purple anthocyanins. These pigments appear in different amounts, depending on the fruit’s environment. This causes the fruit to turn a certain color.
To find out how the environment affects fruit colors, Chinese scientists studied a lot of different fruit colors, including white, red, blue, purple and black.
They found that red fruits tend to grow in cooler places. And instead of just growing in one place, you can find them growing in many places around the world. Blue and purple fruits mostly grow in warm places. The fruits tend to grow a lot in just one specific area. The scientists also found that the closer the fruit is to the equator, the darker its color will be.
Animals also have an impact on the evolution of fruit colors. Animals eat fruits and drop the seeds in other places later. This helps the fruits spread and grow in different places. Therefore, in order to attract animals, some fruits develop colors that are easy for animals to see.
However, animals see colors in a different way. Fruits need to develop colors that are suited to animals’ visual ability. For example, birds can see red more easily than humans can. Therefore, there will be more red fruits in areas where birds live. The lemurs (狐猴) of Madagascar are red-green color-blind. Most yellow fruits can be found in their habitats, as they can easily see this color.

1．Where do fruit colors come from according to the expert from the Chinese Academy of Sciences

（2026·河南周口·一模）Emma was a student who loved nature. She often went hiking and camping with her family. One day, while walking along a river near her home happily, she noticed the water was very dirty. Plastic bottles, bags, and other kinds of rubbish were on the surface of the river. Emma felt very sad because the river used to be clean and beautiful. She remembered seeing fish swimming in the clear water when she was younger.
To make a change, Emma decided to do something to help clean up the river. She talked to her friends and classmates about the problem. They all agreed that something needed to be done. Emma organized a group to clean up the river. They collected rubbish and put it into bags. They also put up signs asking people not to litter. The group met every weekend to continue their efforts.
Emma also wrote to the local newspaper about the river pollution. She worried that the newspaper would not pay attention to her letter.

AI helps doctors check diseases faster. For example, AI systems can read X-ray images (图像) to find out signs of illnesses. Some hospitals also use robots powered by AI to send medicines or help take care of patients.Education Tools
AI is transforming education too! Learning apps like Duolingo use AI to create proper lessons. If a student has difficulty in learning English, the app changes the difficulty level and offers more practice. This makes learning easier and more fun.Transportation Improvements
Self-driving cars are no longer science fiction. Companies like Tesla use AI to help cars “see” the road, stay away from obstacles (障碍物), and follow traffic rules. In the future, AI might cut down accidents caused by human mistakes.
