A Cup of Chinese Tea: More Than Just a Drink
In China, when a guest walks into your home, the first thing you usually do is to make a cup of hot tea for them. This tradition, known as “serving tea to guests,” has been passed down for thousands of years. （1）
Making and serving tea is a special way to show politeness and respect. The host carefully warms the cups and pours the tea with both hands. （2） This small action tells the guest, “You are important and welcome here.” It helps strangers become friends and makes old friends feel closer.
（3） For example, in some places, if a guest keeps tapping (轻敲) two fingers on the table while the host pours tea, it means “thank you.” This interesting custom dates back to an ancient emperor who liked to travel in disguise (微服私访). To avoid revealing his identity, his followers tapped the table instead of bowing (鞠躬) to him.
Tea is also a popular way for people to connect with each other today. （4） They sit together, taste different kinds of tea, and share their feelings. In this fast-paced world, having a cup of tea gives people a chance to slow down and enjoy a peaceful moment with others.
Tea plays an important role in Chinese social life. It carries the warmth of Chinese hospitality (好客). （5） Next time you have a guest, why not make a pot of tea and share a wonderful time together
A．Also, the host only pours half a cup of tea for guests.
B．Foreign visitors also learn about our culture through tea.
C．And it represents the wisdom of getting along with others.
D．There are also some interesting unspoken rules in tea culture.
E．It is a silent language that tells stories from ancient to modern times.
F．Many young people now hold tea parties to meet their new friends.

To solve the problems of urban waterlogging (城市积水), water shortage and rainwater pollution, China has pushed forward the construction of sponge (海绵) cities across the country since 2015. Many cities have achieved great results, and the following four are common successful examples.
Wuhan, Hubei Province Known as the “City of Lakes”, Wuhan, one of China’s first national pilot sponge cities, once suffered serious seasonal waterlogging. After years of development, it has built vast green roofs, hundreds of kilometers of permeable (多孔的) pavements and thousands of rain gardens, while using its lakes and wetlands to store and purify rainwater. Now, waterlogging has been greatly reduced, and reused rainwater is used to water green belts, clean roads and fill up lakes, saving abundant fresh water yearly. Xiamen, Fujian Province Xiamen, a beautiful coastal garden city and early sponge city pilot, perfectly integrates its coastal geographical features with sponge city construction. It has built coastal rain gardens, eco-friendly river banks and green permeable paths, which effectively prevent urban flooding while protecting the coastal ecosystem. The city also integrates sponge facilities into urban landscapes, making these rainwater treatment projects both practical and beautiful, adding more scenic spots to the city.
Chongqing, China Chongqing, a typical mountain city and early sponge city pilot, has developed a practical construction system to solve its seasonal waterlogging problems caused by heavy rain. It builds green roofs, permeable roads and hillside rain gardens to collect, absorb and guide rainwater step by step. Now the city can effectively control heavy rains, and purified rainwater is reused for greening and road cleaning, making the mountain city safer and greener. Suining, Sichuan Province Suining, a model sponge city in central Sichuan, has developed a special way to solve its past problems of water shortage and seasonal waterlogging. It makes use of local ponds, rivers and wetlands to build a complete rainwater collection and storage system, while adding sunken green spaces and grassy ditches in communities and schools. Now, the city can effectively control and reuse most rainwater, and its successful experience has been promoted across China.
These four cities show the great power of the sponge city idea. Through different practical methods, they all have solved urban water problems well and made their cities greener and more livable.
31.What problem did Wuhan mainly solve by building itself into a sponge city
A. Water shortage. B. Urban waterlogging.
C. Rainwater pollution. D. Coastal flooding.
32.If a coastal city wants to protect its ecosystem while building a sponge city, which city can they learn from
A. Wuhan. B. Xiamen. C. Suining. D. Chongqing.
33.What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To introduce four sponge city examples in China.
B. To call on people to protect the environment in cities.
C. To explain how to build a sponge city in coastal areas.
D. To compare the differences between four Chinese cities.

In April 2026, Sony AI made a big scientific breakthrough with its Project Ace. The research about the advanced table tennis robot Ace was published in Nature, a world-famous science magazine, drawing wide attention from technology and sports experts around the world.
For a long time, traditional table tennis robots had clear technical weaknesses. They could only work under simple conditions, with slow ball speed and little spin. Most old robots just used fixed ball paths from serving machines and couldn’t keep up with real players’ changeable playing skills. So no traditional robot could play fairly with well-trained athletes in real competition games.
But Ace is quite different from those old robots. It has excellent hardware and a precise (精准的) vision system. Unlike traditional machines that only move in fixed ways, Ace has a flexible high-speed arm which can change hitting angles and strength quickly, just like a real table tennis player. Many high-speed cameras work as its eyes, helping it catch the ball’s speed, flight path and spin with no delay, making it react much faster than humans.
Ace also uses very smart AI technology. It doesn’t just follow preset rules or movements. During real-time games, it collects game information, studies the opponent’s (对手的) playing style and changes its own skills by itself. It can deal with fast attacks and difficult spins well in lively and changeable matches.
In official tests following strict game rules, Ace beat three of five top non-professional (非专业的) players. Though it lost to professional athletes, it is still the first robot to reach expert human level in real competitive sports.
This success shows that physical AI has great development potential (潜力). Its key technology can be widely used in smart factories, home service robots and medical tools, helping to build a smarter future life.
In the future, Ace may even compete with top Chinese table tennis players, bringing new challenges to the “Ping Pong Kingdom”.
34.What do we know about Project Ace from Paragraph 1
A. It was created by famous table tennis players.
B. It has taken the place of all traditional robots.
C. Its findings appeared in a top science magazine.
D. It can beat every professional player very easily.
35.What does the underlined (划线的) word “flexible” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Able to move easily. B. Difficult to break.
C. Old and slow in action. D. Strong and fixed in shape.
36.How does Ace catch the ball’s spin so quickly
A. It works out the ball’s spin through the force of hitting.
B. It decides the spin by listening to the sound of the ball.
C. It uses high-speed cameras to follow the ball’s movement.
D. It predicts the spin based on the opponent’s arm movement.
37.What may be the best title for the passage
A. The Development of Table Tennis Robots
B. A Powerful New Table Tennis Robot
C. New Ways to Improve Table Tennis Skills
D. The Future of the “Ping Pong Kingdom”
C
①Have you ever seen photos of students holding their middle school English textbooks at famous landmarks around the world Recently, a warm and creative trend (趋势) called the “Chinese Textbook Relay (接力)” has become popular online. It started with young Chinese people sharing photos of their textbooks at the exact places shown on the covers, and it has quickly spread across the globe.
②The trend first began in London. A Chinese overseas student took her English textbook, which had Big Ben on the cover, to the real landmark. She invited other Chinese visitors to take photos there, write their true feelings in the book, and pass it on. Soon, similar activities appeared at the Pyramids, the Sydney Opera House, and the Roman Colosseum. This simple idea quickly won the hearts of young people.
③Why has this trend become so popular For Chinese teenagers, textbooks are often their first “window to the world”. Many grew up reading about these faraway places in books, but never thought they would see them in person. Standing at these landmarks with the textbook turns childhood dreams into reality. It is more than just a fun activity; it is a special coming-of-age journey.
④This relay also shows the quiet pride of today’s Chinese youth. They see the world with calmness and equality, and share their gentle warmth with people around them. For overseas students, the textbooks are not just study tools. They act as emotional ties, helping them feel less homesick and even connecting them with strangers in foreign countries. Besides, the activity reminds people of the true meaning of learning: connecting book knowledge with real-life experience.
⑤As more people join the relay, the books travel further and collect more stories. Each photo, each note, and each shared moment carries the sincerity of Chinese young people. This trend is not just about taking photos. It is a way to bring textbook knowledge to life, build cultural confidence, and spread warm, youthful energy across the world.
38.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to (指代)
A. The “Chinese Textbook Relay” trend online.
B. A famous landmark shown on the textbook cover.
C. A middle school English textbook used by students.
D. A photo taken by Chinese overseas students in London.
39.According to the passage, what is the true meaning of the “textbook relay”
A. It turns textbooks dreams into real-life experiences.
B. It helps students get better grades in English exams.
C. It encourages more people to travel abroad alone.
D. It helps overseas students make new friends easily.
40.What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us
A. The trend shows young people’s cultural confidence.
B. Chinese teenagers know the world through textbooks.
C. The activity has spread to many world-famous landmarks.
D. Learning English well is the true meaning of this activity.
41.What is the structure (结构) of this passage (①=Paragraph 1…)
A. B.
C. D.
D
Art speaks to parts of us that ordinary language often can’t reach. A melody can awaken a feeling we don’t know how to name. A painting can make us stop, look again and see the world differently. A poem can turn an ordinary moment into something strange, beautiful and unforgettable. These experiences may seem quiet, but they matter deeply. They’re what aesthetic (审美的) education offers: not only the training of skills, but also the education of the heart.
Today, this kind of learning is often undervalued. In many schools and universities, the arts are being marginalized (被边缘化的). At the same time, the rise of AI has led many people to question the value of human creativity. If images, music and writing can be generated (产生) in seconds, it’s easy to wonder whether art has become less important.
But this way of thinking misses something essential. Art is valuable not just because it produces something impressive. Its deepest value lies in the experience it creates. Aesthetic education teaches students to notice beauty, sit with sadness, welcome mystery, and feel awe before things larger than themselves. It reminds us that life isn’t only about speed, results and efficiency. It’s also about wonder, attention, and feeling fully alive.
This is something AI systems can never truly replace. AI can imitate styles, combine patterns and produce polished results, but it cannot live a human life. It cannot stand before a painting and suddenly remember a lost afternoon, a childhood fear, or a moment of hope. True aesthetic experiences belong to human beings because they grow out of memory, emotion, imagination, and the need to create meaning.
That’s why students should not accept the idea that creative expression is becoming obsolete. Even if the arts are under pressure, the human need for art has not disappeared. In fact, it may be more important now than ever. Visit a museum, learn an instrument, try painting, even badly, write a poem no one else will read. These are not useless acts. They are ways of protecting your inner life. To create, appreciate, and be moved by art is still one of the most human things we can do. In a world increasingly shaped by algorithms, it’s a quiet form of resistance and one of the deepest sources of joy we have.
42.Why does the writer mention “a melody, a painting and a poem” in Paragraph 1
A. To show different forms of art that only AI can create.
B. To explain how ordinary language describes art clearly.
C. To introduce the topic of aesthetic education and its value.
D. To compare human art with AI-generated creative works.
43.Why do some people doubt whether art still matters a lot at present
A. Art education brings few practical advantages for students.
B. AI is able to produce various artworks in a very short time.
C. Schools have cancelled all the courses related to art learning.
D. Human creative ability is much weaker than AI technology.
44.Which of the following is the best example of a “true aesthetic experiences”
A. Reading many different facts about art from a textbook.
B. Remembering all the painting brush skills in an art textbook.
C. Using an AI app to create a horse painting in Xu Beihong’s style.
D. Feeling tears come to your eyes when hearing grandma’s favorite song.
45.What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the future of art
A. Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Uncertain. D. Hopeful.

46.Have you ever felt it hard to get along with classmates or communicate smoothly with teachers The key to solving these small troubles lies in good interpersonal skills. These skills are necessary for success both in personal life and at work. Good interpersonal skills allow us to communicate effectively, build strong relationships and work well with others. So how can we improve these important skills
First, one of the key factors is active listening. Active listening means giving your full attention to the speaker, without interrupting or thinking about what you will say next. By doing so, we can better understand others, which leads to more meaningful conversations and connections. Active listening shows respect and helps in avoiding misunderstandings.
Second, it is important to express yourself clearly whether speaking or writing. Clear expression ensures that your message is understood by others. Using simple, precise language can help prevent confusion (混乱). Being organized in your thoughts and choosing your words carefully will make communication more effective.
Third, empathy (同理心) is a crucial part of improving interpersonal skills. Empathy allows us to understand the feelings and perspectives of others. By being empathetic, we can respond in a way that strengthens our relationships and builds trust. Empathy helps us connect with people on a deeper level and improves positive interactions.
Finally, developing interpersonal skills takes practice. It is not something that can be mastered overnight. We need to keep learning and trying in daily life.

47.Under the golden roofs of the Forbidden City, where red walls shine in the afternoon sun, a different kind of “resident (居民)” walks a （1） the ancient buildings. These little cats, known as Gongmao or “imperial (皇帝的) cats”, are now ruling a very different palace, which is full of tourists holding c （2） and phones to record their cute actions and daily adventures.
Visitors kindly call them the “clawed guards”, a nickname that shows both where they live and what they do: keeping a watch on the t （3） of the imperial city, such as golden cups and old paintings.
It is said that more than 200 cats live in the palace today. Many are believed to be the descendants (后代) of the cats kept during the Ming and Qing dynasties. At that time, their main “job” was to p （4） important documents, silk and artifacts from mice. In the past, these cats were even given official titles. L （5） , they became the beloved pets of concubines (妃嫔) and princesses little by little.
For those who have worked in the Forbidden City for many years, the cats’ contributions remain clear. One staff member recalled that when he b （6） working at the museum in 1977, many historical pieces were damaged (损坏) by m （7） . “But in recent years,” he said, “I haven’t seen a single mouse.”
Today, each cat is listed and named by staff members. Cat lovers have even created “palace cat-finding maps” and offered the best time to see them. According to online posts, the staff members f （8） the cats delicious meals at around 3 pm every day.
These hairy residents are more than just cats — they play an i （9） role in keeping the palace safe. Their quiet work helps save the cultural relics (文物) from being destroyed. With their paws and purrs, they protect h （10） in their own special way. These cats have become a living part of the palace’s story.

48.Most students think disaster education is about rescue teams, helicopters and brave firefighters. But National Disaster Prevention and Reduction Day （1） (remind) us of a quieter truth: the most necessary help may happen before professionals arrive.
Imagine a strong shaking starts during class. Some students scream, some rush （2） (wild) toward the door, and others try to pick up their bags. In those （3） (one) minutes, the safest student doesn’t run fastest. He follows the plan, protects the head, stays away from windows, and （4） (lead) out in order by others when it is safe.
A useful emergency skill is clear action. Before a disaster, students can learn three small things: the （5） (near) safe exit, the fixed family meeting place and one phone number they can remember. A whistle, a small flashlight and an emergency card can be powerful when our （6） (communicate) becomes difficult. Disaster reduction also means we must find risks early. A blocked stairway or a loose shelf may seem small. Yet many （7） (danger) moments grow from small warnings.
A drill (应急演练) is not a show. Look at the playground now. The students （8） (run) towards the open space because the alarm is ringing. In fact our school （9） (organize) twice since last term. Because of this, everyone knows what to do.
Real courage is not rushing into danger. It is staying calm enough for students to protect （10） (they), help others and follow the instructions. When every person knows one safe action, a school becomes stronger than it looks.

49.【答案】 Deep Reading in a Fast-paced World
Nowadays, many students spend plenty of spare time watching short videos. As Francis Bacon once said, "Reading makes a full man. " This reminds us of the true value of deep reading.
I still remember reading The Old Man and the Sea last winter. At first, I found it hard to focus. But gradually, I was drawn into Santiago's brave fight with the giant fish. Through his determination, I learned that a man can be destroyed but not defeated. That quiet reading experience touched my heart deeply.
Dear fellow students, let's put down our phones, pick up a book, and rediscover the joy of deep reading in this fast-paced world.
