Today and yesterday
Bristol is a city with a great history, a place where antiquity (古代) and modernity sit hand in hand. It has a rich history as an important port and a centre for international maritime (海上的) trade. From as early as the 14th century it was a centre for international trade with Spain, Portugal, Iceland and others. Today, however, the main export is drum ‘n’ bass, which is a style of music made popular by home grown DJs like Roni Size and DJTrickv.

“Singing is the start of music. By singing, we make ourselves physically part of music and music part of us,” writes composer Andrew Ford, host of The Music Show.
Songs have a powerful effect on us. Has anyone discovered the joy of singing in a choir Mary works as a busy teacher, and choir practice nights are simply her “sanity”. “There are nights when even I don’t feel like going to choir but by the time we’ve finished, I’m glad I came,” said Mary.
Research says choiring is really good for you. By monitoring the health signs of members of a choir, Bjorn Vickoff at Sweden University discovered the singers’ hearts started to beat in step with their breathing. There seemed to be a wave of air moving through the group, making them feel connected as one. Research has proved that choiring has comforting effects similar to those that come from breathing exercises in yoga.
Singing also produces hormones (荷尔蒙) and other happy chemicals, fighting against depression and loneliness. Singers have been found to have lower levels of stress after choiring. And a later study also found that singing relieves anxiety and that group singing can be especially beneficial to the health of older adults.
At the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, choir after choir was put on stage by singers with no big names. But this is real music to Tony Backhouse’s ears. The choirmaster spent three decades in Australia founding and working with choral groups. “If I were asked to redesign the Australian educational system, I would start by insisting that group singing become a central part of the daily routine. I believe it builds character and, more than anything else, encourage a taste for cooperation with others,” said Tony. For him, the meaning of group singing is “cooperation, rather than competition. Singing teaches us to listen, which is a great gift. In my community choir, it’s about creating something amazing together, and we really aim to make every rehearsal a thing of joy and beauty.”
4. What does the underlined “sanity” probably mean
A．Relief. B．Routine. C．Duty. D．Suffering.
5. According to Bjorn Vickoff’s study, what caused the change of the singers’ heart rates
A．Their long-term practice.
B．The monitoring machine.
C．The rhythm of their breathing.
D．The airflow condition on the stage.
6. How does choiring benefit singers
A．It lowers stress level.
B．It raises the singers’ heart rate.
C．It builds physical strength.
D．It reduces chemicals in their bodies.
7. What can we infer from Tony Backhouse’s words about choiring
A．It’s a recent educational trend in Australia.
B．It is especially helpful for singers with no big names.
C．It should replace other subjects in the educational system.
D．It helps students develop good qualities and teamwork spirit.
C
For a long time, space exploration depended on large, heavy satellites that cost a huge amount of money and required powerful rockets to launch. These machines could weigh several tons and take years to design and build. But in recent years, tiny satellites have completely changed how humans explore and use outer space.
Mini-satellites are no bigger than a small box. Some are even just the size of a book. At first, many space experts doubted whether such small machines could work well in outer space. They worried the tiny tools would not be strong enough to stand the environment outside the Earth’s atmosphere.
Early mini-satellites had clear limitations. They could carry only simple instruments and had short working lives. Most could not change their direction once in orbit, and their signals were easy to lose. Yet scientists refused to give up. They kept testing new materials and smaller, smarter electronic parts to solve these problems.
Modern mini-satellites are far more powerful than their early forms. Special light metals and plastic protect them from extreme temperatures and space rubbish. They are equipped with small cameras, sensors and communication systems that can record data and send messages back to Earth. Some can even move gently in orbit by using special low-power engines.
What makes these tiny satellites so useful is their ability to work in groups. Instead of launching one large satellite, scientists send up tens or even hundreds of mini-satellites at the same time. They spread out in orbit and cover larger areas than any single big satellite. This group work helps with weather recording, environmental monitoring and space mapping.
Another important advantage is the cost. Mini-satellites cost far less to build and launch. Universities, small research groups and even private companies can now afford to design and send up their own satellites. This has opened space research to far more people around the world.
Today, mini-satellites are helping humans study the weather, watch over forests and oceans, and even support communication in remote areas. They have proved that size does not decide value in space. As technology continues to improve, these small but strong satellites will play an even bigger role in the future of space exploration.
8. What was a problem of early mini-satellites
A．They were too heavy to send into space.
B．Their working time in space was short.
C．They could change directions freely in orbit.
D．They could carry kinds of complex tools.
9. What can we infer from the text
A．Big satellites will disappear in the near future.
B．Mini-satellites help make space research more popular.
C．Only big companies can develop mini-satellites.
D．Mini-satellites can avoid all space dangers.
10. Why do scientists launch mini-satellites in groups
A．To cover a wider area in space.
B．To take the place of big rockets.
C．To clean space rubbish quickly.
D．To change extreme temperatures in space.
11. What is the best title for the text
A．The History of Space Exploration
B．Disadvantages of Traditional Big Satellites
C．Small Satellites Bring Big Space Value
D．New Technologies of Modern Spacecraft

As I stepped off the plane in Yunnan, I was about to begin an unforgettable experience: the Water-Splashing Festival.
On the morning of the festival, people were busy getting prepared. Their faces lit with expectation. I, a foreigner, really stood out in the street. A passing vendor (小贩) noticed my out-of-place expression and flashed me a wide smile. 12_______
Walking through the lively streets of Xishuangbanna with excitement, I saw a group of local children approaching me, their eyes shining with kindness. They handed me a traditional Dai hat and in that simple gesture, I felt a connection to this land and its people. 13_______ Such a moment highlights how the Water-Splashing Festival is more than just an event; it’s a celebration of warmth and openness.

But then, a group of local boys targeted me with their water guns. Before I knew it, I got wet through, and a burst of laughter escaped my lips. In that moment, all my hesitations faded away. 15_______ But for me, it was also a way to wash away the distance between myself and the people around me. As the sun began to set, the festival finally ended. But the memories created, the friendship formed, the cultural understanding gained would last a lifetime.
16_______ It taught me that by being brave enough to explore new cultures, we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities. We enrich our lives in ways we could never have imagined, filling them laughter, warmth, and the magic of cultural connection.
A．At first, I was a bit hesitant.
B．That warmth and friendliness immediately put me at ease.
C．The water-splashing had a long history for the Dai people.
D．It made me understand that a kind act can break down cultural barriers.
E．This led to my new understanding of communicating with different people.
F．My time at Yunnan’s Water-Splashing Festival was a journey of discovery.
G．In Dai culture, splashing water means getting rid of bad luck and welcoming the new.

During a vacation one year, my mom and I left our home. We went on a two-week trip to the countryside where my mother had grown up. I was excited because I couldn’t wait to see my grandparents. The last time I had visited them was when I was only three years old. I also wished to go sightseeing, ride elephants, and do many more things there. They must be very wonderful.
With great wishes, we arrived at my grandparents’ house in the countryside. During the first several days, I stayed in their house for fun. But soon, I got bored. I wondered what adventures were in store for me. One morning I said to my mom, “I really want to go outside to play.” My mom replied, “Stephanie, today we’re going to a school. The children there are studying in poor conditions. I decided to use some of my own money to buy some school supplies (用品) for them.” Hearing that, I was a bit unhappy. “We can go out and play another day. Today we need to spend a little time helping these poor children,” Mom added. I had no choice but to agree.
A few minutes later, my mom drove me to the school. On the way, she said, “We’d first visit the school to know what kind of things these children want most. Then we’ll try to buy them.” I thought to myself: What a vacation I am having! I come here to go sightseeing, not do charity (慈善) work.
When we reached the school, I just couldn’t believe my eyes. There was only one small building, which looked as if it were a hundred years old. There was no playground, no parking lot…It was so small; the school I went to back home was a million times bigger. How unlucky the children here were! We met a teacher in the school, and my mom told him the purpose of our visit. The teacher was very glad and thanked us.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Then the teacher guided us into a classroom.

A Review of The Million Pound Bank Note
Written by the famous American writer Mark Twain, The Million Pound Bank Note is a classic short story.
It tells the story of a poor young man who accidentally gets a one-million-pound bank note. Though he cannot spend it, the note changes his life completely, bringing him respect, fortune and love.
The story is humorous and educational. It shows the social reality vividly. I highly recommend it for its wonderful plot and profound meaning.

Then the teacher guided us into a classroom. I saw simple desks and worn textbooks on students’ desks. Despite the poor conditions, their eyes were full of desire for knowledge. They listened carefully and took notes diligently. Moved deeply, I felt ashamed of my previous complaint. I began to talk with them and learned that they were in great need of notebooks, pencils and erasers. My mom quickly wrote down all their needs on a shopping list.
Holding the shopping list, my mom and I headed for a store. We bought various school supplies and some candies for the kids. When we returned and handed out the gifts, they lit up with joy and thanked us repeatedly. Looking at their bright smiles, I gained a special sense of achievement. I realized true happiness comes from giving and helping others. This special vacation experience taught me a precious life lesson that I will always treasure.
