Amy, a middle school student, tried a new way to learn about history—she took an online tour of the China Grand Canal Museum. “My history teacher told us that Yangzhou has a deep connection with the Grand Canal,” Amy said. “Since I couldn’t visit the museum in person, the online tour was a perfect choice.”
The China Grand Canal Museum has a user-friendly website. When Amy entered it, she saw a virtual gate that looked just like the real museum’s entrance. By clicking the mouse, she could “walk” into different exhibition halls. In the “Canal and City Hall”, there were 3D models showing how Yangzhou grew into a busy city because of the Grand Canal. She could even zoom in to look at small details, like old boats and ancient shops along the river.
Amy’s favourite part was the “Virtual Experience Hall”. There, she put on her headphones and watched a short video. It felt like she was sitting on a boat, sailing along the ancient canal and passing Yangzhou’s old bridges. “I could almost hear the water and the sound of people selling snacks by the river,” she said.
The online museum also has a “Knowledge Test” section. After Amy finished her tour, she took a short quiz about the Grand Canal’s history. When she answered a question correctly, a little cartoon character popped up to cheer for her. “It made learning fun, not boring at all,” Amy smiled.
At the end of the tour, Amy saved a digital postcard from the museum. It had a picture of the Grand Canal at sunset. “I want to visit the real museum in person one day,” she said. “But this online tour has already taught me so much about the city’s history.”
49. Why did Amy visit the China Grand Canal Museum online
A. Because she didn’t like the real museum.
B. Because the online museum was cheaper.
C. Because her teacher asked her to visit it online.
D. Because she couldn’t go to the museum in person.
50. What does the underlined phrase “popped up” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Stayed quietly.
B. Moved slowly.
C. Came out suddenly.
D. Went away quickly.
51. Where can you possibly find this article
A. On a science book.
B. On a fashion magazine.
C. On the textbook.
D. On a travel website.

It was December and the snow was falling quietly outside. The four March sisters were sitting around the fire in their house. Sixteen-year-old Meg was the oldest of the four sisters. She loved pretty clothes. Jo was fifteen. She was very tall and thin. She didn’t care about dresses. Beth was thirteen. She was very shy and quiet. Amy looked like a snow princess with her blue eyes and blonde hair. She loved beautiful things.
“Christmas isn’t Christmas without any presents,” Jo said sadly. “I hate being poor!” Meg said, looking at her old dress. “Some girls have lots of nice things, and other girls have nothing at all,” said Amy. “I don’t think it’s fair.”
Then Jo said, “Our father can’t stay with us now. He is far away with the soldiers.”“Mother says we mustn’t spend money for pleasure,” Meg said. “That’s why we can’t have presents.”
“Well, each of us has a dollar to spend,” said Jo. “I’d like to buy a book for myself.”“I want to spend mine on some new music,” said Beth.“I’m going to buy a box of drawing pencils. I really need them,” said Amy. She wanted to be an artist.
“Mother didn’t say anything about how to spend our own money,” cried Jo. “We work hard for it, so let’s buy what we want and have a little fun.”

“Those slippers are very old,” said Jo. “Mother needs some new ones.”
“I have an idea,” said Beth. “Let’s not spend our money on ourselves. Let’s get some presents for Mother.”
Her sisters thought that she was right. They decided to buy some presents for their mother. At that moment, their mother came back home with a letter from their father. When they had dinner happily, Mother read the long letter. Father told the girls to be good to their mother and work hard. He wanted to be proud of them when he came back.

B. 阅读回答问题(2*5)
Reading is not just about finishing a book. It can also be a wonderful activity to share with others. Here are some reasons why reading with others is great.
Enjoy quiet moments together
Reading with a friend or family member doesn’t always mean talking. Sometimes, sitting together and reading quietly can help both of you relax. It is a simple way to enjoy each other’s company without any pressure. You can read side by side in a comfortable place, like a sofa or under a tree. Just being together while reading can make the experience more enjoyable.
Learn from each other
When you read the same book as someone else, you can share your thoughts about it. You might notice different things in the story. One person may like the main character, while the other may enjoy the setting. Talking about these differences helps you see the story from another point of view. It also helps you understand your friend better.
Build a habit together
If you find it hard to read regularly, having a reading partner can help. When you know someone is reading the same book, you will feel more motivated to keep going. You can set goals together, such as reading a few chapters each week. This shared goal makes reading a habit that is easier to keep.
Feel more connected
Books often talk about feelings and experiences that are common to everyone. When you read about a character who faces a challenge, you might think about your own life. Sharing these thoughts with someone else can make you feel less lonely. It builds a deeper connection between you and your reading partner.
每道题的回答不超过8个词。
81. What kind of place does the text suggest for reading quietly with others
82. What does the underlined *it* mean
83. Who can help you read regularly
84. What can books help readers think about according to the last paragraph
85. Would you like to read a book with a friend Why or why not
