They have to read many passages, look up new words in the dictionary, and do lots of exercises. (32) they work hard, they still cannot get good scores on tests. “Why ” they ask. “How can I enjoy success ” The story of Chinese astronaut Deng Qingming might help answer their questions.
Deng was chosen as an astronaut trainee in 1998. That was long ago. He felt so lucky and proud. As springs came and went, he has (33) almost all of his time training hard to become an astronaut. Over the (34) , Deng has seen his fellow trainees go into space one after another. He, however, was always a backup (后备). He often felt sad. Sometimes, he even cried.
But Deng never gave up. Although he is now in his fifties, he (35) training hard. “I must be ready whenever the (36) comes to me,” he once said. (37) , on the night of 29 November 2022, together with two other astronauts, he boarded the Shenzhou XV spacecraft and flew into space. Deng had (38) for 24 years for this very moment.

It is amazing that many foreigners love learning about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). They find it (41) because it is different from the medicine they usually use. Sometimes it even doesn’t provide any medicine. They enjoy trying it to make the whole body healthy.
TCM is also an important part of Chinese culture. As we all know, TCM has a long history. The (42) medical classic in China, Huangdi s Classic on Medicine, came out more than 2,000 years ago. The book is about the relationship between man and plants. In Chinese culture, yin and yang are the two parts of nature. Nature keeps balanced if yin and yang work (43) together. The human body needs such a (44) too. TCM helps to do that.
Quite specially, for some health problems, a doctor of TCM does not give you (45) . Instead, he may give you just a good plan and right ways to eat. For example, it is common to (46) on the way to school, at our work desk, or in front of the TV. (47) , TCM thinks it’s wrong. Here are the correct ways: Sit down to eat. While eating, (48) the TV and keep away from the work desk. Eat seasonal foods. Do not miss any of the three meals. Also, get your body (49) often. Just as the saying goes, running water is never stale. So do exercise more often.
Nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine is becoming more and more (50) around the world. A government report says people in 183 countries and areas are now using TCM.

In our life, we should often be ready for change that will help us unlock (释放) our self-improvement power (自我提升的力量) . However, we don’t always understand it. We think of unlocking our self-improvement power only when everything gets worst.
When do we know that we need to change diets When none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. When do we stop eating candies and chocolates When all of our teeth fall off. We see the warning (警告) signs when things get difficult.
Most of us will learn about unlocking our self-improvement power only when the whole world go to pieces. We think and feel this way because it is not easy to change. However, change becomes more painful (痛苦的) when we take no notice of it.
Change will happen, like it or hate it. At one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power, not because the world says so, but because we know it’s good for ourselves.
Happy people don’t just accept (接受) change; they welcome it. Unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. It is such a poor excuse for people who are afraid of change.
Jane always tells everyone that she is afraid of being around groups of people. Over the years, that is what Jane believed. Every time a great number of people come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. Jane not only believes in her story, but lives it!
If we look at things in a different way, we might have greater fun. Doing exercise three times a week would result in a healthier life. Reading books every day would build up knowledge. And only when we are enjoying the whole process (过程) of unlocking our self-improvement power, we will find that we can take things light and become happy.
62.What’s the writer’s purpose of writing Paragraph 2
A. To show that health is the most important.
B. To list the problems people often have in their life.
C. To tell that people do not know their problems at times.
D. To show that we learn lessons when having pain.
63.What advice (建议) is helpful to Jane’s problem
A. Always believe in herself.
B. Unlock herself out of the box of thought.
C. Get on with people in a friendly way.
D. Talk with people around her patiently.
64.Which of the following opinions may the writer support
A. Change is always good for us if we like it.
B. People change when they find it easy to do that.
C. If you welcome change in life, you’ll make it better.
D. Process of self-improvement makes life worse.
65.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Is it important to take things light
B. Are you ready for every change in life
C. Painful change, happy life!
D. To unlock ourselves out of the box of thought or to stay in it

66.It’s frightening (令人害怕) when many bees are flying together and coming too close.
A few years ago, Lisa Turnbull was in her home. She made a cake and left it on the kitchen table. When she opened the kitchen window to help the cake cool more quickly, she didn’t notice lots of bees flying around in her back garden. A few minutes later, Lisa heard a loud noise coming from her kitchen. She opened the door and saw a group of bees all over her kitchen table. The bees left their old home and were looking for a new one. It seemed that the queen bee (蜂王) liked the cake and stopped on it. About 15,000 others followed her. Luckily, Lisa knew a bit about bees so she knew they weren’t dangerous. She told herself she didn’t need to be afraid. She calmly closed the door and called a beekeeper to take the bees away.
Last summer, the same thing happened to John Norton. He was driving home and he found thousands of bees following his car. He then stopped his car, hoping that they would fly on and leave him. However, they landed on the back of it and stayed there. Feeling very frightened, John called a beekeeper. They found that the queen bee flew into the boot (后备箱) of the car while John was putting some shopping into it. When he closed the boot, she was inside. So when he drove off, the rest of the bees followed. The beekeeper spent over three hours removing all the bees.
(1) Why did Lisa Turnbull open the kitchen window __________________________________________________________
(2) What were the bees doing in Lisa Turnbull’s kitchen __________________________________________________________
(3) How many bees were in Lisa Turnbull’s kitchen __________________________________________________________
(4) How did John Norton feel when he found thousands of bees following his car __________________________________________________________
(5) How long did the beekeeper spend removing all the bees in John Norton’s car __________________________________________________________

Although Yang spent many years working abroad, he always maintained a deep love for his c (6) . His first visit to China in 1971 was especially meaningful. At a time when few overseas scholars visited their motherland, his trip helped build academic b (7) between China and other countries.
