Last Sunday was a day I will never forget. It was a bright sunny morning, and I had planned to go to the library to return some books. As I was walking down the street, I noticed something shiny lying on the sidewalk. I approached and found a wallet. Curiosity got the better of me, and I opened it to find a few banknotes, some coins, and a student ID card of a local high school.
The ID belonged to a girl named Lily Chen. I decided to do the right thing and return it to her. Using the school’s name on the ID, I searched for the school’s contact information online and called them. The school staff were very helpful and connected me to Lily’s home phone number.
Lily was surprised and grateful when I explained the situation. She had lost her wallet on her way to school that morning and was worried about the loss of her ID card and money. We arranged to meet at a nearby café to return the wallet. When we met, Lily was overjoyed and thanked me profusely. She even offered to buy me a coffee as a token of her gratitude, which I gladly accepted.
After our encounter, I felt a sense of fulfillment and happiness that comes from helping someone in need. I shared the story on my social media, and it quickly spread among my friends and family. Many of them praised my actions and encouraged others to do good deeds as well.
This experience taught me that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s life. It was a day to remember, not just for the good deed done, but also for the reminder that we all have the power to spread positivity in our own small ways.
24. How did the author find Lily’s contact information
A. By calling the school. B. By asking a passerby.
C. Through a friend. D. From a social media post.
25. What was Lily’s reaction when she met the author
A. She was angry. B. She was grateful. C. She was indifferent. D. She was confused.
26. What did the author do after meeting Lily
A. He kept the wallet. B. He shared the story on social media.
C. He forgot about the incident. D. He asked for a reward.
27. What lesson did the author learn from the experience
A. Social media is a powerful tool.
B. Helping others is always rewarded.
C. Small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
D. One should always expect gratitude from other people.

After graduating from high school, John got a job delivering pizzas. But soon he realized that it wasn’t the job he really wanted. So he took a night class at a local tech school to see if welding (焊接) was a skill that “was going to stick”.
It did. John wanted to learn everything about welding and decided he’d make welding his career. But one night class wouldn’t be enough. John went to Hobart Welding School for real, technical training. Besides welding courses, John also took classes in subjects like metallurgy — the study of metal — and reading blueprints. He became more certain that he would stick to the job.
For the past 18 years, John has been a welder. He now works for the EEW Group. The company is in the process of opening a factory that will produce monopiles for offshore wind turbines (涡轮机). Wind turbines produce eco-friendly electricity.
A typical day for John includes a number of tasks and skills. One minute, he’s driving a forklift. The next, he’s reading blueprints, or cutting materials. “There are a lot to deal with,” he told Time for Kids. “It’s not just welding.”
John’s favorite part of being a welder is “making an honest living”. He also takes pride in helping the environment. “I’m glad to stick to what I really want to do,” he says. “I am working for a company that is helping the country to go green, and it’s satisfying to be a part of the process.”
28. What did John use to be
A. A welder. B. A deliveryman. C. A driver. D. A cook.
29. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2
A. What John decided to do. B. Why John accepted training.
C. How John improved himself. D. When John learned welding.
30. What is John’s daily life like
A. Tiring but educational. B. Busy but meaningful.
C. Easy and satisfying. D. Interesting and relaxing.
31. Which can describe John’s experience
A. Action speaks louder than words. B. One is never too young to learn.
C. Pride goes before a fall. D. One should set goals and work for it.
D
About 15 years ago, when my children were still in elementary school, I was very active in the Parent Teacher Association. At one of the monthly meetings the topic of discussion was the new curriculum (课程) that the state of Michigan was presenting. Many concerns were voiced at that meeting, and one of them was my own. My concern was that the children were being taught things that were once taught at a much later age.
Let’s face it: children today have to learn and adapt to a more technological society, one where if you’re not a peak performer you’re just not well received. Some say that the children of today have it so much easier than 10—20 years ago. They’re given so much more, not having to work for their toys and little extras. They sit all day long in front of a computer playing games… How hard can that be
I, for one, think that today’s child is missing out on so many wonderful experiences because of technology. What type of people skills are they learning They can thumb type faster than any other generation before them, but they can’t pick up the phone and have a really deep conversation.
There is an elementary school not far behind my home and I used to see children on the playground every day. Weekdays and weekends, there would be children playing, shouting with joy. But now I don’t see many children there after school, nor on the weekend. Has the playground gone from our children’s life
I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw a shoe at me when I say play doesn’t always need to have a purpose. And it doesn’t always have to have a teaching module included. To compete in today’s world, the children have to be experts at multitasking (多任务处理), and on top of their game at all times. I, for one, think this is a shame.
32. Why was the author concerned
A. The children didn’t learn much at school.
B. The parents’ opinions were not valued by schools.
C. The new curriculum was too advanced for the children.
D. The children were not interested in the new curriculum.
33. What should children learn according to the author
A. How to adapt to a technological society. B. How to communicate with others.
C. How to work for toys and extras. D. How to make a telephone call.
34. Which of the following would the author agree with
A. Children’s play should be well designed.
B. Play and learning should go hand in hand.
C. The multitasking ability is more important than play.
D. Children should be allowed to play purposelessly.
35. What does the underlined part “throw a shoe at” mean in the last paragraph
A. Disagree with. B. Laugh at. C. Accept. D. Hit.
E
When you are struggling to make out someone’s voice in a crowded restaurant, do you ever close your eyes to hear them better While many people believe this helps, a new study suggests you are not doing yourself any favors. The study, published in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, challenges the common belief that removing visual distractions (视力分散) helps you pick out faint sounds.
Researchers asked participants to listen to sounds through headphones while background noise played. They were tested under four conditions: eyes closed, looking at a blank screen, looking at a related photo, and watching a video that matched the sound.
Participants found the task hardest when their eyes were closed. With their eyes open—even when looking at a blank screen—they could identify sounds that were 1.32 dB quieter than they could with their eyes shut. Relevant visual information helped even more. Seeing a sound-matched video allowed them to hear sounds at volumes 4.30 dB lower. “Contrary to popular belief, closing one’s eyes actually impairs the ability to detect these sounds,” explains study author Yu Huang.
Data on participants’ brain activity during the test offered a clue as to why this might be the case. It showed that closing one’s eyes shifts the brain into a state where it screens more information than necessary, which likely drowns out sounds we are trying to hear. In a noisy place, the brain needs to actively separate the signal from the background. But over-filtering gets in the way.
A paper from the University of Lübeck showed that even in a quiet room, closing your eyes doesn’t improve hearing. While it increases certain brain waves related to attention, it doesn’t lead to better performance. In other words, closing your eyes might help you focus by blocking out the world, but it does not actually improve your hearing. If you really want to hear someone, you’d better keep your eyes wide open.
36. What is the common belief about hearing
A. Background noise enhances concentration.
B. Visual information improves hearing ability.
C. Closing eyes helps hear better in noisy places.
D. Removing visual distractions weakens hearing.
37. Why does closing your eyes make hearing worse according to the study
A. It screens too much information. B. It reduces visual distractions completely.
C. It increases background noise in the brain. D. It confuses the brain with visual information.
38. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Closing eyes guarantees better hearing.
B. Quiet rooms require people to close eyes.
C. Increased brain waves lead to better hearing.
D. Closing eyes does not necessarily mean hearing better.
39. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To prove that visual information is useless for hearing.
B. To correct a common misunderstanding about hearing.
C. To encourage people to close their eyes in quiet rooms.
D. To explain how the brain processes sound in noisy places.

How to make the world a better place
When you think about people who have made the world a better place, you probably think of famous scientists or great leaders. That is not all the facts. 40 An act of kindness can bring a smile to a person’s face even if only for a moment.
Give away your money. 41 For example, if you want to help the hungry people, you can try to find an international organization that provides food for those in poor areas. Every cent you give away will mean a lot.
Help a stranger. Your small actions can brighten the day of others. Hold the door for someone whose hands are full. Help the blind cross the street. 42 The key is expecting nothing in return for your acts of kindness.
Care about those you know. Show the people close to you how much you care about them. Tell them they mean a lot to you. Make a beautiful gift for a friend. Take your husband to his favorite fun place if he has had a hard week. 43
Be grateful to others. Have you had good service in a restaurant Thank the waiter. Do you have a very good neighbor who is always there when you need her Tell her how much you appreciate her being in your life.
44 If a friend needs skill in a certain area, offer your advice. Perhaps she is struggling to set up a computer, and you know how to do that. Offer whatever ability you have, but always remember to be polite.
A. Keep walking forward.
B. Share your knowledge.
C. Small step, not big ones.
D. Give your seat on the bus to an old man.
E. Choose a charity that has meaning for you.
F. Tell your children how much they mean to you.
G. Ordinary people like you and me can also help a lot.

M: Wow...a little bit like the Palace Museum in Beijing.
W: Yes. I guess you could say that. The Kremlin was actually built around the same time, between the 14th and 17th centuries.
M: What’s that building over there, with the colourful round towers I’ve seen so many photos of it. It looks so pretty, like a flame!
W: That’s Saint Basil’s Cathedral. People all over the world think of Russia when they see it. It’s like the Great Wall in China, a symbol of the country.
M: Forgive me for asking, but can you tell me more about Red Square
W: Well, it’s considered the centre of Moscow, and there have been many important events held here. It is also a place for music concerts. But it used to be a marketplace a long time ago.
M: Oh, really How amazing!
17-20.
M: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to our school. My name is Andrew Brown. I’m a history teacher. I’ll give you a quick introduction to the school before I show you around. Our school is called a “free school”. This means that the pupils are free to choose what and how they want to learn.
The school opens at 9:00 am, but the children can arrive whenever they like. Most of them are in school by 10:00.
If you look through the door of that big room, you’ll see those children reading and drawing there. Four of the older boys are now on their way to the Car-room to have their driving lessons. Several children are taking turns in the kitchen to help Miss Cabe with lunch. They all enjoy doing this. After lunch it’s someone else’s job to do the washing-up. This job is unpopular. After lunch the children go on with what they’ve been doing until 4:30. On Mondays and Thursdays the school is open in the evening until 9:00 pm.
