There are four novels for you.
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
This book takes you through waves of emotion as you start to understand the main character, a 9-year-old boy
Bruno. The story taking place during the Holocaust (大屠杀), we witness the horror from the boy’s viewpoint. You
will be shocked by some of the surprising aspects of the book as the boy makes friends with a Jewish boy named
Shmuel in the concentration camp (集中营). They meet up on their side of the fence each day.
The Book Thief
The story is about a young girl named Liesel who has to live with foster parents (养父母) during World War II.

discovers her love for reading and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing attacks with a Jewish
man hidden in her basement.
The Fault in Our Stars
This is probably the most touching book that makes you cry, as it records the experiences of teens who are dying
of cancer and living their last days in love. The real tragedy is the love between the main characters, who know that
they’re certain to die.
A Child Called “It”
It’s one of the saddest stories of abuse (虐待) in recent decades. A Child Called “It” is based on the true story of
Dave Pelzer, a boy from California who suffered at the hands of his cruel mother. The tears will come from both
sadness and the inspiration tied to Dave’s fight for survival in an environment where he is considered useless.

Barditch High School decided to hold an All-School Reunion. Over 450 people came to the event. There were
tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on hands to tell stories
about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for fifty years, was wheeled to the Park.
Some eyes rolled and there were few low groans (嘟囔声) when Ms. Yates was about to speak. Many started
looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an
old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers combined.
Then Ms. Yates started to speak:
“I can’t tell you how pleased I am to be here. I haven’t seen many of you since your graduation, but I have
followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of
newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven’t appeared in person, I have attended your college
graduations, weddings and even the birth of your children, in my imagination.”
Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued:
“It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and others
would succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives, I can see that you have all been successful in your chosen
path.
“There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all
been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart.
There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned
into cheering, then into a deafening roar (呼喊). Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes
or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown.
24. What activity was organized for the school reunion?
A. Sightseeing in the park. B. Telling stories about past events.

As the summer approaches, the difficulty of booking tickets to visit public museums has skyrocketed. As a result,
there is scalping (黄牛倒票) and high-cost third-party reservation service providers.
When official channels for reservation fail, people have no choice but to pay sky-high prices to businesses to
make reservations on their behalf or pay even higher prices for organized tour services in order to enter the museums.
This clearly contradicts the original intention of the nation’s requirement for free access to museums, and there have
been widespread complaints from the public. Therefore, it is necessary to simplify the ticketing mechanisms of
museums now.
In 2021, the total number of registered museums nationwide reached 6,183, with 5,605 museums offering free
admission. The imbalance between supply and demand has resulted in museums being extremely difficult to access,
with tickets booked up in seconds after reservations open.
The fact that people are willing to visit museums demonstrates the strong cohesion and centripetal force (凝聚力
和 向 心 力 ) of traditional culture. As the guardians of these treasures, museums should provide better ticketing
services.
The relationship between individual reservations and group tickets for tour groups needs to be handled properly.
Currently, many individuals are unable to secure reservations on their own and are forced to join expensive tour
groups for visits. There is significant profit potential in the transition from free reservations to costly tour group sign-
ups.
This has even become a source of revenue for some travel agencies and is linked to the museum’s own interests,
as many group tickets include paid services within the museum.
Should tour groups be allowed to continue? If so, to what extent? This consideration should not merely be based
on the museum’s operational purposes but also on benefiting society more broadly. Especially with the explosive
growth of student trips during the summer, museums should provide more chances for free admission.
28. What has led to scalping and high-cost third-party reservation service providers?
A. The fact that people are willing to visit museums.
B. The rapid growth of student trips during the summer.
C. The difficulty of booking tickets to visit public museums.
D. The imbalance between supply and demand for group tickets.
29. What does the author think of the current ticketing mechanisms of museums?
A. They are efficient and effective. B. They encourage individual tickets.
C. They go against the original purpose. D. They should be maintained as they are.
30. What percentage of registered museums offered free admission in 2021?
A. Over 90 percent. B. Around 50 percent.
C. Less than 10 percent. D. It is not mentioned.
31. What does the underlined word “revenue” in paragraph 6 mean?
A. Entertainment. B. Information. C. Worry. D. Income.
D
A recent study suggests that vitamin D pills can help speed up the time taken for burns to heal, and prevent
scarring (结 疤 ). The vitamin, which is produced naturally in the body when the skin is exposed to sunshine, is
believed to help protect against burning.
Previous studies have shown that vitamin D pills help decrease redness and swelling after sunburn, and may be
one of the reasons why the body produces the chemical.
The research from Birmingham University, has found they may also help relieve other types of burn.
Researchers monitored 38 patients who had suffered serious burns for a year and recorded their levels of vitamin D.
They found that those with the highest levels of vitamin D had better wound healing and fewer scars.
Professor Janet Lord said: “Low vitamin D levels were associated with worse results in burn patients including
life-threatening infections, death and delayed wound healing. Major burn injury severely reduces vitamin D levels and
adding this vitamin back may be a simple, safe and cost-effective way to improve the condition for burn patients.”
Professor Lord and her team are now focusing on finding out why there is a rapid loss of vitamin D in patients
immediately following burn injury and hope that they may be able to prevent this in future.
The amount of reduction in patients’ vitamin D levels was not related to the severity (严重程度) of the burn, so
levels may also be decreased in minor burn injury, suggesting taking vitamin D pills could also help people with
everyday burns. Public Health England now recommends that all Britons take vitamin D pills in the winter because it
is impossible to make sufficient quantities in the darker months.
32. What does the new study find?
A. People with low vitamin D levels get burned easily.
B. Vitamin D helps with the recovery from burn injury.
C. Vitamin D pills aid in reducing the swelling from burns.
D. Vitamin D is more beneficial to serious burns than minor burns.
33. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. The severity of one’s burn reflects his vitamin D levels.
B. Vitamin D pills are more needed in the autumn months.
C. Minor burns have no effect on patients’ vitamin D levels.
D. Burn patients lacking vitamin D are at high risk of infection.
34. What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Vitamin D pills. B. The researchers.
C. Previous studies. D. Some kinds of vitamins.
35. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A. Vitamin D: A Necessity for Our Health
B. Vitamin D Pills: When Are They Needed?
C. Vitamin D: How Much Does the Body Need?
D. Vitamin D Pills: Heal Burns &Prevent Scarring

My findings once showed that students perform better when they take notes by hand than when they use laptops.
Before I knew it, those findings were used as good reasons for laptop bans in classrooms in the US. 36 The
fact is that I don’t actually advocate laptop bans, and never have. In fact, I don’t even ban laptops in my own classes.
In the research, we asked students to watch TED Talks and had them take notes either on laptops or with a pen
and paper. Students using laptops recorded the talks nearly verbatim (一 字 不 差 ), while students who took
handwritten notes could not; they just took notes in their own words. 37 And deeper processing of the
information led to improved learning. As a result, students in this case scored higher on tests.
I published the findings. 38 But they didn’t know what actually interfered (妨碍) with learning was the
mindless recording of a lecture. Laptops merely allowed students to take notes more quickly.
39 Whether they are helpful or harmful depends on specific purposes. The value of a laptop in the
classroom depends on the goal of a lesson plan, the nature of the material, the type of students being taught, etc.
So can laptops be used in the classroom? If a lesson requires exact quotes, then laptops are ideal. But if the goal
is conceptual understanding, they will produce the exactly opposite results. Don’t ignore the context when deciding
whether or not to allow laptops in your class. 40
A. Now I regret conducting the research.
B. The value of a laptop has been discussed.
C. I received a lot of emails blaming me for such policies.
D. All in all, the answer to the question is that it depends.
E. Teachers around the country soon started banning laptops in their classes.
F. Like most technology, laptops are not universally helpful or harmful in class.
G. Writing by hand required students to understand and summarize the content.

In Southwest China, 56 group of grandmothers sit in front of a traditional-style house, 57
(skillful) sewing coloured thread into a piece of blue cloth and occasionally bursting into waves of laughter.
Such is the scene in Hejiayan village, Youyang Tujia and Miao autonomous county, Chongqing. These women

some fun into 58 (they) twilight years.
This local 59 (recover) of the craft started in 2013 when Chen Guotao, 48, considered 60 (open)
a Miao embroidery (刺绣) shop in Youyang. 61 (raise) in a rural area, Chen was keen to help fuel China’s
rural prosperity, and in 2016, she set up the first of several embroidery workshops. They offered job opportunities to
unemployed female villagers who had stayed behind 62 (care) for the family while relatives sought higher
salaries elsewhere.
But the workshops are more 63 just workplaces. They are also social clubs for local senior citizens, most
of 64 would lead rather dull lives otherwise, sitting at home with little social interaction. Sitting in the warm
sunshine and enjoying the peace of embroidery, these senior citizens are now an 65 (establish) feature in the

Once there was a little girl named Emily. Although her singing was very pleasant to hear, lacking of courage, she
never dared to sing in front of strangers.
One summer, the neighborhood where she lived would hold a singing competition. Her best friend, Lucy, came
to invite her to participate in the competition, but Emily said, “I’m afraid to take part in it.” Her mother said, “It’s
okay, just do it bravely.” Emily followed her mom’s advice and decided to give herself a try. The day came. Emily
and Lucy went to the competition site. But she was too nervous to walk onto the stage. She had been waiting until
others finished singing. She shakily forced herself to stand on the stage. She started to sing, but her voice was so low.
What’s worse, she was so nervous that she forgot the lyrics (歌词) after singing a few words. Being laughed at by
others, embarrassed and shy, she ran away from the stage.
Some naughty boys ran after her and said, “Emily, coward (胆小鬼)! Emily, coward!” Emily didn’t argue with
them. What she wanted was to go back home as quickly as she could. Finally, she rushed into the house, hugged her
mom and cried sadly.
“Well, my poor girl. Don’t cry. Tell me what happened to you,” asked her mom. Emily looked up at her mother
and told her what she had experienced.
Listening to her, her mom cupped her face and said, “It doesn’t matter, girl. As long as you practice singing more
in front of strangers, you will become braver little by little. So, my girl, don’t be beaten by a failure. You can go out to
practice singing every day. No matter who is listening to you, go on singing and never stop. I believe there will be a
harvest for you.”
