It was a rainy Tuesday afternoon when Mia found herself standing outside the city library, completely wet. She had 1_____ her umbrella on the bus and now had to wait for her mother to pick her up.

Mia crossed the street and 2_____ the door. A bell rang softly as she entered. The store was filled with books from floor to ceiling, and the smell of old paper 3_____ her immediately.

One morning, a young boy named Leo was walking through the forest near his village when he discovered an old, broken compass lying on the ground. He picked it up and noticed that the needle was pointing in a very u 1 direction — not north, but toward a mountain that the villagers believed was cursed (被诅咒的).
Leo had always been a curious child. I 2 of being afraid, he felt excited. He decided to follow the compass and see what lay at the end of the path. As he walked deeper into the woods, the trees grew t 3 and the sunlight became weaker. He heard strange sounds, but he kept going.
After hours of walking, Leo arrived at the foot of the mountain. There, he found a small cave with a sign that read: "Only those with a b 4 heart may enter." Leo took a deep breath and stepped inside. The cave was dark, but the compass began to glow softly, l 5 the way.
At the far end of the cave, Leo discovered a beautiful garden filled with flowers that shone like jewels. In the center stood an old man who smiled and said, "You are the first person to find this place in a hundred years. Your courage has b 6 you here, and now you may ask for one wish."
Leo thought carefully. He could have wished for wealth or fame, but instead he said, "I wish for my village to have clean water forever." The old man nodded and handed him a small seed. "Plant this by the river," he said, "and your wish will come t 7 ."
Leo returned to his village and planted the seed as he was told. Within a week, a clear spring appeared, and the river that had been dirty for years became pure and fresh. The villagers were amazed and asked Leo how he had done it. He simply smiled and said, "Sometimes, the greatest discoveries come from following a d 8 path."
From that day on, Leo was no longer just a boy — he was a hero. But he never forgot the lesson he had learned: true treasure is not gold or silver, but the c 9 to explore the unknown and the kindness to help o 10 .

三、阅读理解
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Every Sunday morning, twelve-year-old Emma helped her grandmother sort through boxes of old photographs in the attic (阁楼). Her grandmother, who had been a journalist in her youth, had traveled to over fifty countries and had collected thousands of pictures. Emma loved hearing the stories behind each image — a busy market in Morocco, a quiet temple in Japan, a snowy street in Russia.
One Sunday, Emma discovered a photograph she had never seen before. It showed a young woman standing in front of a bakery with a bright smile. The woman looked strangely familiar. “Grandma, who is this ” Emma asked. Her grandmother’s face softened. “That’s me,” she said quietly. “But I’ve never seen you smile like that before,” Emma replied. “You always look so serious in your photos.”
Her grandmother laughed. “That’s because after I became a journalist, I thought I had to look professional. But in this photo, I had just finished my first baking class. I was so proud of the bread I made that I couldn’t stop smiling.” Emma looked at the photo again and noticed a small detail — a tiny butterfly-shaped pin (胸针) on the woman’s collar. “What’s this ” she asked.
Her grandmother touched her own collar, where the same pin was still fastened. “This was my mother’s. She gave it to me on the day I left home to follow my dreams. She said, ‘Never forget to find joy in the small things, even when life gets serious.’ I’ve worn it every day since.”
Emma felt a warm feeling in her heart. She realized that her grandmother wasn’t just a serious journalist — she was also a girl who loved baking, who cherished her mother’s words, and who had chosen to carry that joy with her every single day. From that Sunday on, Emma began wearing a small pin of her own — a tiny star — to remind herself that even in the busiest moments, joy is always worth holding onto.

A. Because the woman was wearing a special pin.
B. Because the woman was standing in front of a bakery.

A. The pin was expensive and valuable.
B. The pin served as a reminder to stay joyful.

Have you ever felt that the world is moving too fast In recent years, a growing number of people have chosen to slow down and embrace (拥抱) what is called the “slow living” movement. Unlike the busy modern lifestyle that values speed and productivity, slow living encourages people to pay more attention to the present moment and enjoy life's simple pleasures.
The slow living movement first started in Italy in the 1980s as a protest against fast food. It later expanded into other areas such as travel, education, and even work. Supporters of slow living believe that by slowing down, people can improve their mental health, strengthen relationships, and develop a deeper connection with their environment.
One of the key ideas of slow living is that “less is more.” Instead of filling every minute with tasks and appointments, slow living encourages people to leave space for relaxation and reflection. This does not mean being lazy or unproductive — rather, it is about being intentional (有意的) with how time is spent. For example, instead of quickly eating a meal while checking phones, slow living suggests sitting down to enjoy the food and the company.
However, slow living is not without challenges. In a society where success is often measured by how busy a person is, choosing to slow down can sometimes be seen as a sign of weakness or lack of ambition. Moreover, not everyone has the freedom to slow down — many people work long hours just to make ends meet. Despite these difficulties, more and more people are finding small ways to bring slowness into their daily lives, such as taking a walk without a destination or reading a book without rushing to finish it.
As the famous saying goes, “The journey, not the arrival, matters.” In a world that never stops moving, perhaps the bravest choice we can make is to pause, breathe, and appreciate the beauty that is already around us.
1. Where did the slow living movement first begin
A. In France. B. In Italy. C. In the United States. D. In Japan.
2. According to the passage, which of the following is an example of slow living
A. Eating lunch quickly in front of the computer.
B. Skipping breakfast to save time for work.
C. Having a meal without checking the phone.
D. Working overtime to finish tasks ahead of time.
3. What challenge does slow living face in modern society
A. It costs too much money to practice.
B. People who slow down may be seen as lazy.
C. It is difficult to find good food to enjoy.
D. Slow living only works for wealthy people.
4. The underlined word “reflection” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. think carefully B. look forward C. act quickly D. move around
5. What is the writer’s attitude toward slow living
A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Positive. D. Negative.
四、综合填空
阅读下面短文，根据上下文或括号内单词提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
What does it mean to be a hero For many people, heroes are 1 (they) favorite athletes, singers, or movie characters. But in reality, heroes are often ordinary people 2 do extraordinary things in their daily lives.
Take Mr. Chen, for example, a 65-year-old retired teacher 3 a small village in Yunnan Province. Every morning, he wakes up at 5 a.m. and walks three kilometers to the nearest bus stop, where he waits to 4 (help) children cross the busy road to school. He has been doing this for over fifteen years, rain or shine. “I know the children by name,” Mr. Chen says with a smile. “I want to make sure they get to school 5 (safe).”
Mr. Chen is not alone. Around the world, countless individuals offer their time and energy 6 (make) the world a better place. Some volunteer in hospitals, others teach children in poor areas, and many simply lend a 7 (hear) ear to those in need.

五、阅读回答问题
阅读下面短文，用英语简要回答下列问题。（每题答案不超过6个词）
In the remote mountains of Guizhou Province, there is a small village called Shibing. For generations, the villagers lived in poverty because the rocky land made farming extremely difficult. However, everything changed in 2018 when a young university graduate named Zhang Lei decided to return to his hometown instead of staying in the city.
Zhang Lei had studied agricultural science at university. He noticed that although the land was rocky, the climate was perfect for growing a special type of tea. He convinced (说服) the villagers to try planting tea trees instead of traditional crops. At first, many villagers were doubtful — they had never grown tea before. But Zhang Lei offered to teach them and even provided the young plants for free.
The first year was hard. The tea plants required careful attention, and many villagers almost gave up. Zhang Lei stayed with them, sharing his knowledge and encouraging everyone to keep going. By the third year, the tea trees began to produce leaves of excellent quality. A tea company from Shanghai heard about Shibing’s tea and offered to buy all of it.
Today, Shibing is no longer a poor village. The tea fields have brought steady income to every family. More importantly, young people who had left to find work in cities have returned to help with the tea business. Zhang Lei has become a local hero, but he remains humble. “I didn’t do this alone,” he says. “It was the villagers’ hard work and trust that made it possible.”
Zhang Lei’s story has inspired many other young graduates to consider returning to their hometowns. As he puts it, “The countryside is not a place to escape from — it is a place with endless possibilities.”
1. What was the main problem in Shibing before 2018
2. What did Zhang Lei study at university
3. How did Zhang Lei help the villagers start planting tea
4. What did the tea company from Shanghai do
5. What does Zhang Lei think of his own contribution

六、书面表达（参考范文）
Small Actions, Big Changes
In our daily lives, we often think that big changes require big efforts. However, I have come to realize that even small actions can make a difference.
I started bringing my own reusable water bottle to school instead of buying bottled drinks. At first, I sometimes forgot, but I left a note on my desk to remind myself. Gradually, it became a habit.
This small action has had several positive effects. Firstly, I have saved money and reduced plastic waste. Secondly, my classmates noticed and some of them started doing the same. We even set up a “no plastic bottle” challenge in our class. To my surprise, our class produced much less rubbish by the end of the month.
Through this experience, I have learned that one small action can inspire others and create a chain reaction. As long as we each do a little, together we can make the world a much better place.
