Most people follow others blindly. Some people feel it safe to follow other people. In some rare cases it might be right, but in most cases this can make a big mistake. Ninety-five percent of people never succeed because they are following the wrong group. Actually there are reasons why we shouldn't follow others blindly.
According to a study, people always follow others when they aren’t sure about the direction they should take. This means a large number of people couldbe following others without understanding what’s right and what’s wrong! This attracts more people to follow them and the result is that most people move in a certain direction even if it is wrong.
A man who wants to be successful always hopes for guidance from others and he usually follows the same path of most people, but the question this man never asks himself is,“Are all of those people successful ” Of course not! If you want to follow a group, then follow a successful one.However, in real life you’ll only find one successful person among hundreds of people, and that’s why following others makes no sense at all.
Most people act without thinking wisely. If you always follow others because they’re greater than you, then sooner or later you’ll discover that you’re making decisions you might regret(后悔)later.
However, should we never follow others No. But just think wisely before you make a decision. If you find others are right, there is no problem in following them, but if you doubt the direction they’re moving in, don’t follow them blindly.
29.Why do most people like to follow others blindly according to the passage
A. Because they don’t want to be different.
B.Because they are affected by the people around them.
C.Because they’re sure to take the right direction.
D.Because they want to make themselves successful.
30. What does the underlined word“rare”in Paragraph 1 mean in Chinese
A.多数的 B.特殊的C.稀薄的 D. 少数的
31.What's the main idea of the passage
A. Advantages of following others. B.Examples of following others.
C. Reasons of not following others blindly. D.Ways of following others.
C
Have you ever noticed how some people can learn new skills easily while others struggle Scientists have been studying this question for many years. The answer is not simply about being "smart" or "talented". It is about something called a "growth mindset".
People with a growth mindset believe that abilities can be developed through hard work and learning. They see challenges as opportunities to grow. When they fail at something, they ask, "What can I learn from this " On the other hand, people with a fixed mindset believe that abilities are born, not made. They think they are either good at something or not, and there is nothing they can do about it.
Dr. Carol Dweck, a psychologist at Stanford University, has studied mindsets for over thirty years. In one famous experiment, she gave a group of students a set of puzzles. After the first set, she praised half the students for their intelligence ("You must be smart at this!") and the other half for their effort ("You must have worked hard!"). Then she gave all the students a harder set of puzzles.
The results were surprising. The students praised for effort became more interested in the hard puzzles. They tried different strategies and did not give up easily. But the students praised for intelligence became frustrated more quickly. They chose to go back to easier puzzles instead of challenging themselves.
This experiment shows that the words we use matter greatly. Telling a child "You're so smart" might actually harm their learning. It teaches them that success comes from fixed intelligence rather than effort. A better approach is to praise the process: the strategies they used, the focus they showed, or the improvement they made.
The good news is that mindsets can change. Anyone can learn to develop a growth mindset. It starts with paying attention to how you talk to yourself. When you face a difficult task, instead of thinking "I can't do this," try adding one small word: "I can't do this yet." That small word opens up a world of possibilities.
32.What do people with a fixed mindset believe
A.Everyone can learn new skills easily.
B.Abilities are something you are born with.
C.Failure is the best way to learn and grow.
D.Hard work is more important than talent.
33.What did Dr. Dweck find in her experiment
A.Praising intelligence made students work harder.
B.Praising effort made students more willing to take challenges.
C.All students became frustrated when puzzles got harder.
D.The words teachers use have little effect on students.
34.What does the writer suggest parents do to help their children learn
A.Praise children for their natural intelligence.
B.Never tell children that they are smart.
C.Focus on the effort and strategies children use.
D.Give children easier tasks to build confidence.
35.What will the next paragraph probably talk about
A.The history of mindset research.
B.Famous people who have growth mindsets.
C.Specific steps to develop a growth mindset.
D.The differences between children and adults.

My grandmother, Nana, was the strongest person I ever knew. She came to the United States from Italy when she was only nineteen, with no money and no English. She found work in a factory, sewing buttons onto shirts. Every day, she saved a little money in a small metal box under her bed.
When my mother was born, Nana decided she wanted a better life for her daughter. She started taking English classes at night after working ten hours at the factory. Her hands were tired from sewing, but she held her pencil and wrote each word carefully. "If I can learn the language," she told my mother, "you will have more chances than I did."
Nana saved for fifteen years. When my mother was ready for college, Nana opened that metal box. The money inside was enough for the first year's tuition. My mother cried when she saw the worn dollar bills. "How did you do this, Mama " she asked. Nana just smiled and said, "Little by little, the bird builds its nest."
My mother became a teacher. She taught in public schools for thirty-five years. Every summer, she would take me to visit Nana. We would sit in Nana's small kitchen, eating cookies and listening to her stories. She always ended the same way: "Education is the door. You must open it yourself, but I will help you find the key."
Last year, Nana passed away at the age of ninety-four. When we cleaned her apartment, we found the metal box under her bed. Inside was a letter she had written to me. It said, "Dear grandchild, I saved a little money each month for your education too. It is not much, but it is my gift. Use it well. Love, Nana."
Beside the letter were one hundred twenty dollar bills, each one worn smooth. My mother held the money in her hands and wept. "She never stopped saving," she said. "Even after all these years."
I am using that money for my own college education now. Every time I sit in class, I think of Nana. She never had the chance to go to college herself, but she helped three generations of our family walk through the door of education. That is the true meaning of strength.
36.Why did Nana take English classes at night
A.She wanted to get a better job at the factory.
B.She hoped to help her daughter get more opportunities.
C.She planned to move back to Italy one day.
D.She needed to read letters from her family.
37.What does the underlined sentence "Little by little, the bird builds its nest" mean
A.Saving small amounts of money over time can lead to big results.
B.Birds work harder than humans to build their homes.
C.It takes a long time to learn a new language well.
D.Small actions are not as important as big plans.
38.What was in the metal box when the family found it after Nana passed away
A.Only a letter to her grandchild.
B.Some old clothes and photos.
C.A letter and money saved for the writer's education.
D.The money from the factory job.
39.How did Nana help three generations of the family
A.She paid for everyone's college education fully.
B.She taught each generation how to sew buttons.
C.She helped her child, grandchild, and great-grandchild get education.
D.She built a school in her hometown in Italy.
40.What is the best title for this passage
A.The Metal Box B.Nana's Factory Job C.Learning English D.A Letter from Italy

China's high-speed railway network is the largest in the world. By the end of 2025, the total length reached 48,000 kilometers, connecting over 95 percent of cities with populations above 500,000. This achievement did not happen overnight. It took more than fifteen years of careful planning and hard work.
The first high-speed railway line, the Beijing-Tianjin Intercity Railway, opened in 2008. It was only 117 kilometers long, but it marked the beginning of a new era. Trains could travel at speeds of 350 kilometers per hour, cutting travel time between the two cities from 70 minutes to just 30 minutes. People were amazed by the speed and comfort.
Building high-speed railways in China is not easy. The country has many different landforms, including mountains, rivers, and areas of soft soil. Engineers had to solve many technical problems. For example, when building a line through the mountainous areas of Fujian province, workers had to dig 85 tunnels and build 226 bridges. The total length of tunnels and bridges was longer than the railway itself.
The high-speed railway has changed people's lives in many ways. Business people can travel between cities in the morning and return home in the evening. Families can visit relatives more often. Tourists can explore more places during short holidays. One study found that cities connected by high-speed railways saw a 20 percent increase in tourism within two years.
China has also begun sharing its high-speed railway technology with other countries. The Jakarta-Bandung High-speed Railway in Indonesia, which opened in 2023, was built using Chinese technology and standards. It is the first high-speed railway in Southeast Asia. Engineers and workers from China trained local workers, so they can operate and maintain the system themselves in the future.
The success of China's high-speed railway shows what can be achieved through long-term planning and collective effort. It is not just about building fast trains. It is about connecting people, boosting the economy, and opening up new possibilities for millions of citizens.
Introduction China has the world's largest high-speed railway network, 56 over 48,000 kilometers by 2025.
57 Start The first line, Beijing-Tianjin, opened in 2008 and cut travel time by more than half.
Challenges Different landforms such as mountains and rivers made 58 difficult. Engineers had to build many tunnels and bridges.
59 Cities with high-speed rail saw 20% more tourists. Business people can travel more 60 .
International Sharing The Jakarta-Bandung railway in Indonesia uses Chinese 61 . Local workers were trained to run the system.
Conclusion The network connects people, boosts the economy, and opens new 62 for citizens.
Question What is one thing you would like to improve about the railway system in your city (At least 15 words) 63
B)请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。
Do you know that the world's first known dictionary was written in China Around 200 BC, a scholar named Er Ya wrote a book that explained the meanings of difficult words in ancient Chinese texts. This book is c___64___ the earliest dictionary in the world.
Many centuries later, in 1789, two American men named Noah Webster and Samuel Johnson each tried to write a complete dictionary of the English language. Johnson finished his work first, but Webster spent twenty-seven years on his project. He wanted to show that American English was different from British English. He changed the spelling of many words. For example, he wrote "color" i___65___ of "colour" and "honor" instead of "honour".
Today, dictionaries are no longer just books. Most people use online dictionaries on their phones or computers. These digital dictionaries can be u___66___ very quickly. They can also include audio recordings that show how to pronounce words correctly. Some even have example sentences taken from real books, newspapers, and websites.
The Oxford English Dictionary is one of the most famous dictionaries. It does not just list the meanings of words. It also t___67___ the history of each word, showing when it was first used and how its meaning changed over time. The editors of this dictionary are always adding new words. In 2024, they added words like "greedflation", "digital nomad", and "quiet quitting". These words r___68___ new ideas and behaviors in modern society.
Do you know how many words there are in English No one knows e___69___ number. Some say there are over a million. But the average person only uses about 20,000 to 30,000 words in daily life. The most common word in English is "the". It appears in almost every sentence we write or say.
Having a good vocabulary is important for success in school and at work. R___70___ new words every day can help. You can try to learn just five new words each day. That would add up to over 1,800 new words in a year. Your future self will thank you for starting today.

The Importance of Reading
Reading plays an important role in our life. It helps us gain knowledge about different subjects and opens up new worlds. When I read, I feel like traveling to different times and places without leaving my room.
My favorite book is The Old Man and the Sea. It teaches me never to give up when facing difficulties. I usually read for thirty minutes before going to bed every night. This habit helps me relax and learn at the same time.
I suggest that classmates read at least one book every month. Start with topics you are interested in. Reading will make you a better thinker and a wiser person.
