The earth is getting hotter. We call it global warming. What makes this happen People burn things like gas, oil, and coal for energy. They cut down trees and create a lot of waste. These actions release harmful gases into the air, which trap heat from the sun. These are major reasons for global warming.
Global warming affects everything on the planet. It’s like the earth is getting a high fever. If we have a few degrees’ increase in body temperature, we feel sick. The same goes for our planet. Even a small rise in temperature can cause big problems.
The effects of global warming are serious and far-reaching. For example, the snow and ice in the North Pole are starting to melt rapidly. This causes the sea level to rise, which can lead to more floods and severe storms in coastal areas. Many animals, such as polar bears, are losing their homes because the ice is disappearing. Additionally, global warming can cause droughts in some places, making it hard for farmers to grow food. This not only hurts animals but also threatens people’s lives and food supply.
Thankfully, we can help slow down global warming by taking some simple actions. Instead of driving cars, we can choose to walk or ride bikes. We should turn off devices we aren’t using, like TVs and lights, to save electricity. Another great way to help is by planting trees in our community and reducing waste. Just by making some small changes in our daily lives, we can play a role in addressing global warming.
14. What is the main cause of global warming according to the passage
A．The earth moving closer to the sun.
B．People burning fuels (燃料) and cutting down trees.
C．Animals losing their homes in the North Pole.
D．Too much rain and storms in coastal areas.
15. Why does the writer say “It’s like the earth is getting a high fever”
A．To show that the earth needs to see a doctor.
B．To explain that the earth’s temperature is normal.
C．To describe the serious condition of global warming.
D．To tell us that people are feeling sick because of the heat.
16. The underlined word “addressing” in the last sentence probably means “_______”.
A．writing an address on a letter
B．dealing with or solving
C．moving to a new house
D．giving a formal speech
17. What is the purpose of the text
A．To explain why people feel sick in hot weather.
B．To describe the effects of global warming.
C．To warn people about global warming and call for action.
D．To tell farmers how to grow food during droughts.

五、任务型阅读
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
In Chinese history, there was once a dynasty (朝代) called Western Xia (1038-1227). An ethnic group (民族) called the Tangut (党项) built it in northwestern China. People didn’t know much about it until the 1970s, when some tombs (墓穴) were found.
Now, the tombs are included in China’s 2025 nomination for World Heritage status (世界遗产申报名单). The tombs are near Helan Mountain in the Ningxia Hui autonomous region (自治区). They are shaped like pyramids (金字塔) and cover an area of about 50 square kilometers. There are nine tombs in total.
Experts say the tombs show a mix of different cultures. “The tombs are important because they show us the history of Western Xia and how different ethnic groups lived together in ancient China,” said Du Jianlu, dean (学院院长) of a university in Ningxia.
For example, researchers found a kind of roof decoration called chiwen, which has a dragon’s head and a fish’s tail. These decorations have been used since the Han and Tang dynasties to stop fires. This mix of styles shows how the Tangut and Han peoples communicated with each other, said Du.
In the 19th century, Western Xia characters were first discovered. They look similar to Chinese characters because they took parts from Chinese characters, but have a new shape. Both types of characters were used in the country back then. A scholar called Gule Maocai even made a dictionary in 1190 to help the Tangut and Han peoples understand each other, said Du.
47. When and where was the Western Xia dynasty built
________________________________________________________________
48. How large are the tombs

49. According to the passage, why are the Western Xia tombs important

It’s important to have good habits
Good habits play a key role in our daily lives. Among all good habits, I think reading every day is the most valuable one.
Reading opens my eyes to the whole world and improves my writing skills. When I feel upset, books cheer me up and teach me to stay calm. Besides reading, getting up early and finishing homework on time also help me make full use of time.
To develop good habits, we can make small daily plans and stick to them. Don’t give up easily when you meet difficulties. Small efforts every day will finally bring great changes. Good habits shape us into better persons.
