When I was 17, I experienced a week of challenges: I failed my driving test, a snowstorm canceled my flight to visit my dad, and I was rejected (拒绝) from the University of Oxford — not once, but five times. Letters arrived at my home, school, and inbox, all saying the same sad thing. Standing in my hallway, I tore open the final letter, sat on the floor, and cried. It was my first big failure, and it hit me hard.
The rejection itself wasn’t the hardest part — it was the embarrassment (尴尬). As a young girl, I had built up the idea of attending Oxford in my mind, believing it was the only path to success. When I didn’t get in, I felt like I had let myself and everyone else down. I had created this pressure (压力) completely on my own, believing that Oxford was the “be-all and end-all” and that anything else was second-rate.
Looking back, I realized I had been a big fish in a small pond. At school, I excelled, but when I competed against the best students in the country during my Oxford interviews, I struggled (感到吃力). The French grammar test was a mess, and my interviews didn’t go well either. When I listed Le Petit Prince as my favourite French book, the interviewer questioned whether it counted as literature. I felt embarrassed and couldn’t explain my choice.
After weeks of sadness, I decided to move forward. I accepted an offer from the University of Nottingham, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made. Without the pressure to prove myself, I did well. I worked hard, joined student theatre and TV networks, built strong friendships, and enjoyed my time there.
My Oxford rejection taught me an important lesson: Failure doesn’t define you. Sometimes, what feels like a challenge can lead to unexpected chances. Nottingham gave me the freedom to be myself, and I’ve never looked back.
4. How many challenges did the author experience during the week
A．One. B．Three. C．Five. D．Six.
5. Where was the author’s pressure mainly from
A．Herself. B．Her family. C．Her teachers. D．Her friends.
6. Why did the author struggle during the Oxford interviews
A．She felt nervous. B．She was not well-prepared.
C．She had strong competitors. D．She was weak at her school subjects.
7. What lesson can we learn from the author’s experience
A．Freedom is priceless. B．Choice is greater than hard work.
C．Something bad may turn out good. D．Failure is the mother of success.

Many teenagers love to sleep, their curtains (窗帘) staying closed until midday — maybe because they didn’t get to bed until long after midnight the night before! That might be OK on weekends and during holidays. But what about when they need to get up for school or work The answer may be making sure they get enough sunlight early in the day, according to a new study.
Researchers in Brazil studied 35 teenagers over seven days, including five school days. Their movement, sleep and exposure (曝光) to light were monitored (监视) with tools on their wrists. The researchers recorded levels of light exposure at four different times during the day. The students also reported whether they considered themselves “early birds” or “night owls”.
During the time of the study, there were between 12 and 13 hours of daylight in Brazil. The study found that teenagers who were exposed to more light during the day usually went to sleep earlier and wake up earlier. And teenagers who were exposed to brighter light — especially during the early part of the day — fell asleep about eight minutes earlier and woke up about seven minutes earlier. Unsurprisingly, the teenagers usually went to sleep later and sleep longer on days when they weren’t at school.
Of course, because they were both going to sleep earlier and waking up earlier, the students exposed to more light weren’t getting much more sleep. But the researchers said it is important to know about how daytime activities can influence nighttime sleep patterns (模式). And experts say it’s not just the amount of sleep that matters, but also the quality (质量) of that sleep.
However, the researchers noted that the study was not able to prove that exposure to light was the reason for the differences in the students’ sleep patterns — their sleep could also have been influenced by the different activities they did during the day.
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A．To draw readers’ interest. B．To lead in the topic.
C．To explain a common problem. D．To set off a discussion.
9. How did the researchers collect information in the study
A．By using tools. B．By interviewing teenagers.
C．By asking parents for help. D．By comparing different sleep patterns.
10. What changes might happen if teens spent more mornings outdoors
A．Their total sleep time would be less.
B．They would feel less tired during the day.
C．They would sleep much longer than usual.
D．Their bedtime and wake-up time would become earlier.
11. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．All teenagers naturally prefer to wake up early.
B．Daytime activities may also influence teenagers’ sleep quality.
C．Teenagers who sleep late on weekends will perform worse in school.
D．Light exposure is the biggest factor changing teenagers’ sleep patterns.

The Red River Delta matters in the development of Vietnam. As the country’s second-largest rice-growing area, it produces about 15 — 20% of Vietnam’s rice and is home to 17 million people living on its 16,500 km of land. The delta’s lifeblood is the Red River, which comes from a big catchment area (汇水区) of about 169,000 km , half of which is in China. While the river brings rich alluvium (冲积土) and water resources, floods (洪水) happen often because trees are cut and mud builds up, putting the area’s growing business in trouble, especially the capital Hanoi.
To protect low-lying areas, the Vietnamese built a network of dykes (堤). Historical records show the first large-scale dyke was built in 1108 under King Ly Nhan Tong to protect Thang Long (now Hanoi). Today, the 3,000-km dyke system is crucial for flood control, with experts and volunteers watching it during the June — October flood season, when water levels can rise 4-8 metres above ground.
In addition to the dyke system, upstream, multi-purpose reservoirs (多用途水库) like Hoa Binh and Thac Ba store flood water, cutting the danger downstream. These reservoirs, which also produce power, can hold up to 5.4 billion cubic metres of water. New reservoirs being built will further improve flood protection.
When dykes and reservoirs can’t hold the water, floodwater goes into the Day River, which can take 5,000 m of water per second. Additional areas like Tam Thanh are used only in serious times. Cleaning rivers works, but costs too much to do regularly.
Planting and protecting upstream forests is a long-term solution, as forests draw floodwaters and protect the environment. The Vietnamese government has increased forest cover through actions, though this takes time.
12. What has caused trouble to the Red River Delta
A．Loss of farmland. B．Human activities.
C．Business slowdown. D．Poor water resources.
13. What does the underlined word “crucial” mean in Paragraph 2
A．Important. B．Huge. C．Easy. D．New.
14. What are the Hoa Binh and Thac Ba reservoirs used to do
A．Create tourist attractions.
B．Produce electricity for nearby cities.
C．Provide drinking water for local communities.
D．Store floodwater and lower downstream risks.
15. What is a suitable title for the text
A．The History of Dyke Building in Vietnam
B．Rice Farming in Vietnam’s Red River Delta
C．The Red River Delta: Flood Challenges and Solutions
D．Business Growth and Environmental Problems in Hanoi

五、书面表达
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。词数150左右。
The ceremony (庆典) of my graduation from graduate school would be held in a school hall that I had never visited.
Somehow I heard about the stairs that I’d have to pass in the ceremony. I decided I couldn’t bear the pressure of steps. Walking across the stage was going to be scary enough.
I called my friend Sally in tears and told her I was not going. The stairs were driving me crazy. We had been through many hard times during graduate school. We took all our classes together, studied together, and edited each other’s work.
Sally was like my note-taker because I write slowly due to cerebral palsy (脑瘫). She knew I needed a good cry when I called her because I didn’t know how to do it.
Sally said she’d take care of everything; she would make a plan. My breathing slowed, and I could feel my body again. I knew that I had to sit quietly and let Sally work her plan, whatever that was. She made me promise that I would be at the school hall in an hour to get into my full dress.
I arrived at the school hall and saw the stairs on both sides of the stage. I would walk up on one side, shake everyone’s hand, and then walk down the other side to leave the stage.
It wasn’t just the stairs I worried about; it was the handshake, too. My cerebral palsy mostly affects my right side, giving me limited coordination (协调性) of my right hand. Not only would I need to walk the stairs and the stage in front of hundreds, but I also would need to shake hands with five teachers using my right hand.
The whole day was falling apart fast, and my tears would flow again. But I knew that I just had to trust Sally. When I found her, she rushed over and hugged me. “I have it all worked out,” she said. “It’s going to be fine.”
As my name got closer, I still couldn’t help feeling frightened.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After my classmate and Sally walked me up the stairs, I found no handshakes, but hugs.

四、书信范文
Dear Miss Lori,
I really like the idea of adding a new column to our School English Weekly. I’d like to suggest choosing the theme “Misunderstandings in English”.
Many of us often make mistakes because of confusing English expressions, such as easily mixing up similar phrases. Reading articles about common English misunderstandings can help us avoid such mistakes in daily study and exams. Besides, these real-life language examples are more practical and interesting for all students.
Hope my advice will be helpful to you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
五、读后续写范文
As my name got closer, I still couldn’t help feeling frightened. My hands trembled slightly as I watched other students walk up the steep stairs smoothly. I lowered my head, ready to refuse to move forward. At that moment, Sally and two warm-hearted classmates beside me held my arms gently. They told me to take small steps and they would support me all the way. Their soft words calmed my racing heart a little.
After my classmate and Sally walked me up the stairs, I found no handshakes, but hugs. Every teacher opened their arms to hold me tightly instead of stretching out hands. One professor whispered that they all knew my trouble and discussed this special arrangement in advance. Warmth flooded my whole body. I felt fully accepted and respected. At that moment, all my worry disappeared, and I felt proud of myself for finishing the graduation ceremony bravely.
