It was not turning out to be the great fishing trip we had imagined. It certainly was not the one Father had promised. All day the rain beat against the roof of our cabin.
Father sat at the window, looking out over the lake. My older brother Jeremy, who had recently turned sixteen years old, lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling. I paced the room,
occasionally glancing toward Father to see if there was any sign that the rain would let up. “I wish we’d never come out to this boring place!” Jeremy said.
I stopped pacing and looked at Father. He gave no sign that he had heard, and I hoped he hadn’t. This trip meant a lot to him. He used to come out here with own father.
I started pacing again.
“I mean, if we’d stayed home, at least I could watch TV, go out with my friends or play my guitar,” Jeremy continued.
Silence continued for some time. I kept pacing, imagining the trip I had dreamed of before the bad weather had set in. I saw us in the boat, anchor dropped in a calm bay casting our lines toward shore, the way Father had described it when he was trying to convince Jeremy to come along.
Father stood up and turned to face us. He smiled at me. “Come on, get up, Jeremy,” he said. “Let’s go fishing, boys.” He picked up his fishing rod and the tool box, opened the door, and walked out into the rain.
Jeremy and I watched Father walk down the pathway toward the dock (码头)，the wind
whipping (打) at his hair, the rain wetting his clothes. Jeremy shook his head. “He's crazy if he thinks I’m going with him,” he said. “Maybe I would have when I was a little kid, but not now,” he said.
I waited for a while, unsure of what to do, looking out the open door at Father, who was walking onto the dock, facing against the storm. Jeremy couldn’t believe I picked up my rod and walked out into the storm after Father. I couldn’t quite hear what Jeremy said because of the wind in my ears, but I heard his footsteps behind me as he began to follow me out to the boat.
What does the underlined phrase “let up” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Stop. B. Continue. C. Hit. D. Arrive.
Why was the fishing trip important for the author’s father
He had never fished in the rain.
It’s his son Jeremy’s first fishing trip.
He and his own father usually went fishing there.
He had a good relationship with his sons.
What can we know about Jeremy
He doesn’t enjoy fishing.
He dislikes outdoor activities.
He is addicted to playing the guitar.
He showed no interest in the fishing trip.
What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
To express the fondness for a particular day.
To describe a fishing experience in the rain.
To reflect on the old family tradition of fishing.
To recall the generation gap between father and brother.
C
It’s a sweet moment, as a chimp reaches up to kiss his mother’s face. The touching photo was taken by the famous conservationist and activist Jane Goodall in 1993 in Gombe National Park in northwest Tanzania where she has studied chimpanzees for more than six decades.
The image is part of Vital Impacts consisting of a group of 100 photographers. The women-led non-profit was founded by award-winning photographer Ami Vitale and visual journalist Eileen Mignoni. They are selling fine arts images, most of which focus on wildlife and nature, with earnings benefiting conservation organizations including Jane Goodall Institute’s Roots and Shoots program.
“Our purpose is to use photography to create awareness and understanding; to help us see that the survival of the planet is closely connected with our own survival. As photographers, we have a huge opportunity to inform and influence change, but pressing the shutter (快门) is just the start,” Vitale said.
“For an image to have significance, it needs to reach people. To this end, we are working to get the photographs of Vital Impacts photographers and our students into high-profile media and exhibitions around the world.”
The organization gives special attention to photographers who are committed to the planet. Funds will be used to support global conservation and environmental initiatives and the group will offer two $20,000 environmental storytelling awards.
Vital Impacts has raised more than $1.5 million from the sale of fine art prints since the organization was set up in late 2021. Some of its profits were donated to the organization Direct Relief, which shipped more than 1,400 tons of medical supplies worth
$545 million to support 351 healthcare equipment in disaster zones. Other profits were able
to provide fuel and vehicle assistance to support wildlife corridors ( 廊 道 ), a monitoring program, and the restoration of the Snake River in the Pacific Northwest.
Why did the author mention the touching photo in paragraph one
A. To lead in Vital Impacts. B. To introduce Jane Goodall’s hobby.
C. To share a sweet image. D. To introduce chimps’ touching behavior.
Which of the following statements about Vital Impacts is true

It aims to use images to promote environmental conservation.
It helps to pick out excellent photographers by offering 2 awards.
Who are most likely to join Vital Impacts
Those who love wildlife and nature.
Those who are devoted to the environment.
Those who are committed to helping others.
Those who are passionate about photography.
What do the numbers in the last paragraph tell about Vital Impacts
A. Its profits. B. Its benefits. C. Its contributions. D. Its effects.
D
They say procrastination ( 拖 延 ) is the thief of time — actually deadlines are. New research has found that if you want someone to help you out with something, it is best not to set a deadline at all. But if you do set a deadline, make it short.
Professor Stephen Knowles tested the effect of deadline length on task completion for their research. Participants were invited to complete an online survey concerning a charity donation. They were given either one week, one month, or no deadline to respond. Professor Knowles says although the topic of the survey is about charity, the results are true of any situation where someone asks another person for help.
The study found responses to the survey were lowest for the one-month deadline and highest when no deadline was specified. No deadline and the one-week deadline led to many early responses, while a long deadline appeared to give people permission to procrastinate, and then forget. Professor Knowles wasn’t surprised to find that specifying a shorter deadline increased the chances of receiving a response compared to a longer deadline. However, he did find it interesting that they received the most responses when no
deadline was specified.
“We interpret this as evidence that specifying a longer deadline, as opposed to a short deadline or no deadline at all, removes the urgency to act,” he says. “People therefore put off undertaking the task, and since they are inattentive or forget, postponing it results in lower response rates.”
He says of the research that it is possible that not specifying a deadline might still have led participants to assume that there is an unspoken deadline. Professor Knowles hopes his research can help reduce the amount of procrastinating people do. “Many people procrastinate. They have the best intentions of helping someone out, but just do not get around to doing it.”
Why did Professor Knowles do the research
To study the role a deadline plays in procrastination.
To find out whether people are interested in charity.
To attract public attention to the effects of procrastination.
To test the effect of procrastination on task completion.
What most likely leads to procrastination
A. No deadlines. B. Short deadlines. C. Specific deadlines. D. Long deadlines.
What’ s the attitude of Professor Knowles to the findings of the study
A. Interested. B. Conservative. C. Confused. D. Unsurprised.
Which of the following is the best title for the text
Procrastination — the Thief of Time
Procrastination — the Urgent Problem to Solve
Deadline — the Key to Reducing Procrastination
Deadline — a Result of Procrastination

I yawned (打哈欠)as I got off the last step of the bus. I had woken early that morning, and had not been able to sleep on the long ride from Riverside High, thinking about that day’s race, the Eye Opener. I had never raced in a state-wide race before. Over thirty high school teams ran, along with quite a few colleges. The rest of my team and I unloaded the bus, and we relaxed and waited for our race patiently.
“Start warming up,” our coach told us, roughly forty-five minutes after we arrived.
After finishing our stretches, we headed over to the starting line, eager for the race to begin.
The starter walked to the middle of the field. “There will be two commands,” his voice boomed, ‘‘Runners set, then the gun. If you hear another shot, return to the starting line to start again.” My heart raced as I got my legs ready to race.
“Runners set!” the starter shouted Bam! The gun fired, and he rushed out of our way. Adrenaline (肾上腺素)rushed through my body as I raced through the mass of runners. As I rounded the first turn, my schoolmates greeted me with heartening shouts. Then, in what felt
like only one minute, I arrived at the one mile mark.
“6’10”, a man declared as I ran by. I tried to ignore him, but my legs began to fail as I realized I had run a mile and still had two to go. I slowed down my pace, for I knew the second mile was the worst of all three. Minutes later, I felt horrible. My legs ached, feeling like lead blocks. My vision was clouded as sweat dropped down into my eyes, and my arms felt as if they would fall off if I swung them one more time. Just as I almost reached my limit, a boy passed me. He also seemed to have lost strength but soon he was a little ahead of me.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to apply to be a volunteer for The 19th Asian Games to be held
in Hangzhou this September.
I’m convinced that I’m well qualified for the position. First, I have a good
command of oral English, which enables me to communicate with others freely.
What’s more, I have some relevant work experience, working as a volunteer for
years at international football and basketball games. I regard it a great
opportunity and a privilege to introduce China to foreign friends in my own way.
Any favorable consideration of my application would be highly appreciated.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,

and not being able to utter a word. The sudden silence brought sharp pain in my
knees and “failure” was the only word flashing in my mind. Then the silence was
broken by a deep voice, “You won’t give up so easily, will you ” The boy ahead
of me turned back and pulled me up. “Let’s run to the finishing line together!”
The second mile saw its end while we ran shoulder to shoulder.
In the last mile, seeing the athletes passing us one by one, I asked the boy
to rum without me. “You can win a place if you go by yourself.” I looked at him
in the eyes with sweat blurring my sight. The boy breathing heavily, drops of
sweat rolled down his face. He shook his head saying, “Winning a place is not
that important, isn’t it ”. Then we smiled at each other as if we had been the
only runners. The last mile seemed shorter and we were relieved when we passed
the finishing line together with thunderous applause. I knew they cheered for us
not for winning a race but for something more important.

应用文写作
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to apply to be a volunteer for The 19th Asian Games to be held
in Hangzhou this September.
I’m convinced that I’m well qualified for the position. First, I have a good
command of oral English, which enables me to communicate with others freely.
What’s more, I have some relevant work experience, working as a volunteer for
years at international football and basketball games. I regard it a great
opportunity and a privilege to introduce China to foreign friends in my own way.
Any favorable consideration of my application would be highly appreciated.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

My world was clouded by total darkness. How I wish the ground to crack and

{#{QQABaQwEogioABAAARhCEQEaCEOQkAGACAoORFAAoAAAwBFABAA=}#}
swallow me! I could feel everybody was staring at me, widening their mouths
and not being able to utter a word. The sudden silence brought sharp pain in my
knees and “failure” was the only word flashing in my mind. Then the silence was
broken by a deep voice, “You won’t give up so easily, will you ” The boy ahead
of me turned back and pulled me up. “Let’s run to the finishing line together!”
The second mile saw its end while we ran shoulder to shoulder.
In the last mile, seeing the athletes passing us one by one, I asked the boy
to rum without me. “You can win a place if you go by yourself.” I looked at him
in the eyes with sweat blurring my sight. The boy breathing heavily, drops of
sweat rolled down his face. He shook his head saying, “Winning a place is not
that important, isn’t it ”. Then we smiled at each other as if we had been the
only runners. The last mile seemed shorter and we were relieved when we passed
the finishing line together with thunderous applause. I knew they cheered for us
not for winning a race but for something more important.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者参加全州范围的跑步，
在第二英里的时候，因为力尽而摔倒，跑他前面的男孩，鼓励作者，并帮
助他一起跑完全程，最后作者明白，比赛中赢不是最重要的，坚持和友谊
才是。

一段可描写作者摔倒了后的心情，以及男孩鼓励并帮助作者继续跑下去。

从我们身边经过，我让那个男孩自己跑。”可知，第二段可描写男孩子告诉

悟。

绝——一起跑过终点——感悟

fun-filled activities.

Text 10 为国际学生制定的健康保险计划
M: (18) Most universities and colleges in the United States have a health
insurance plan for international students. It generally costs around$300 a year
now. You may think it is a waste of money, but if you have even a small medical
problem, the insurance will help you to pay the bills. So, you should buy a
medical insurance when you arrive at the university. I am sure the International
Students Office will help you with that. (19) Private doctors are the standard
form of the medical care in America, but there are also college clinics, public
and private clinics, etc. The quality of medical care can be different in these
different places, so it would be better if you ask an American friend for advice
before going to see a doctor. Before you leave China, I suggest you have a
medical examination. If there is something wrong, you can have it cured in your
own country. (20) Don’t forget to take your personal and family health
records abroad with you. They provide important and useful information if you
need to go to the hospital. But remember to take good care of yourself. Don’t
work too hard.
