The event serves two purposes. First, it gives young people experience in different kinds of jobs. Second, adults can learn from young people’s opinions and fresh ideas. Here’s what the students say about their Takeover Day. Simon, 16, went to Coventry Football Club. He became coach of the football team for a day: “Having a go at training professional players was an unforgettable experience,” said Simon. “If I had the chance, I would do this job every day.”Sally, 15, became the head teacher of her school. “I’d go mad if I were a head teacher!” she said. “So many meetings!” Sally thinks she learned a lot. “My favorite part of the day was meeting the school cook and improving the school menus for the week. It was a great chance to tell her what we really like eating!”Paul, 17, spent the day with an important politician. He even went to a meeting at Buckingham Palace! Paul thought that if everyone had the chance to follow a politician for a day, they’d be amazed. “It isn’t a nine-to-five job. It’s 24/7,” he said “We even had no time for lunch.”1.

But to get to the lion’s place we had to go through the monkeys, land first. And that was an experience because they climbed all over the car, ate apples and bananas, and threw all kinds of things at us. They seemed very unfriendly.Anyway, we went on our way to the lions, place where we had to lock ourselves in the car as we knew lions could be dangerous. A lion came up very close to us. The next thing we knew, it was on the bonnet （车盖）. It looked calm but we felt terrified. Aunt Emily, who isn’t very brave, started to call for help. The kids started crying.

The Amazon is also the second longest river in the world. It is 3,900 miles long. How long is that It is longer than a road going from New York City to San Francisco.The Amazon is the mightiest for this reason. It has the greatest amount of water. More water runs out to sea than from the Nile. Mississippi, and Yangtze rivers combined. That's a lot of fresh water! The force of its current (水流) is great too. The current can be seen 200 miles out in the sea. There's a story to show the Amazon's amazing current. A ship sailed (航行) far away from Brazil. It ran out of drinking water. Another ship passed by. The first ship asked for water. Someone on the second ship said. "Just put your buckets (桶) into the sea."Here are a few more facts. At its mouth, the Amazon is 90 miles wide. Even up the river, you can't see the opposite bank. The river is also very deep(from 22 to 76 meters). During rainy season, the river rises about 16 meters more. Big ocean ships can sail about 1,800 miles upstream (向上游). Smaller ships can sail 1,000 miles farther.What's the most bloodthirsty fish in the world No. It's not the shark It's the Amazon's piranha.It is only about 10 cm to 20 cm long. It has sharp teeth. Thousands travel in a group. No animal can swim across the river. A 1,000-pound horse would be just bones (骨头) in three minutes. Are you planning a trip to the Amazon Here's a piece of advice.

The passage mainly tells us______ ______.A. piranha in the AmazonB. traveling in the Amazon C. interesting facts about the AmazonPassage 8（2021山东潍坊）Everything is made of something.Nothing is made of nothing.Chemistry is about the smallest things that other bigger things are made of，and what happens when they change.The word chemistry comes from chemical，which is an example of one type of the very small things that other bigger things are made of.The words you are reading now are made of a dark liquid called ink （墨水），which is written on paper.The paper itself is made out of the chemicals that wood is made out of.Both the ink and the paper were made by different chemical processes.A chemical process is what happens when chemicals come together to make other chemicals，and therefore other things.Cooking makes chemical changes.Your different ingredients are made of different chemicals，and when you put them together and make them hot and cook them，the chemicals change into new chemicals and the different ingredients make something new.That tomato sauce you're making is made of tomatoes，onions，garlic，salt and pepper.Those ingredients each have their own chemicals and their own flavors，but now with your sauce you've made something different，something that has its own flavor，all the ingredients mixed together，all the chemicals mixed together，something new.You can smell the chemical changes，too，as they go up into your nose，especially when you forget about your sauce and it doesn't just cook but bums and becomes black and has a really bad flavor.You can't make it better，either，because once chemicals change，they can't be changed back again.1.What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 2 refer to？ A.Chemistry.B.Chemical.C.The smallest things.D.The bigger things.2.What is a chemical process？ A.Ink is written on paper.

Things you used have been forgotten for ages in your home. You must have some old stuff around. And today is all about enjoying it. Because what's better than finding something really great from days gone by It's so easy to forget things you have. If we don't use them every day, some things can be put away and stay there. And that's not just the things in your home— technology grows so quickly, new toys come out all the time, new books keep coming out. In the age of new information, we can have so many things easily. Today is all about remembering the things we sometimes leave behind.We've learned to value what age can bring to things. Wines, for example, are more valuable and tastier as they grow older. It's certain that old things still have their uses, value or charm. People today will pay a pretty penny for stamps, toys, video games, board games, books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop （旧货店）. Another person's old stuff could be your new stuff! Or maybe now is a good day to clean up Old stuff could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always send your old things to a charity shop. If you're free, you could turn your old clothes into new ones with just a little change.Today could be a good day to visit your older families.

In fact, good students may just end up doing jobs they don’t like, and some even lead an unhappy life. Why is it like that In some parents’ eyes, school grades matter most for their kids. In reality, there are many things to consider besides the school subjects, for example, how to be a happy person, what to do to keep healthy, and how to get along well with others. That is to say, school is not just enough if you want to have a great life.Doing well in school is different from doing well in life. Studies show that people who failed at school may not end up failing in life. You may have already known that some famous people, like Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs, didn’t do very well at school or even failed to finish school. In fact, there are a lot more than just the big shots who are successful in life without finishing school. They seize (抓住) every chance to learn and finally make it to the top.Life is really a long lesson, so long that you can’t define (界定) a person’s success by just one section (部分) of it. If you have already finished school, keep learning because what you have learned at school will never be enough to live a satisfying life. If you are still studying, whether you are good or bad at school, don’t take your school results too seriously as long as you have put your heart into it. Keep learning to make the most of your talents (天赋). That’s how you can live a happy and successful life.1. What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing Paragraph (段落) One A. To introduce a topic. B. To give examples. C. To provide a solution.2. In some parents’ eyes, what’s the most important for their kids based on Paragraph Two A. Being happy. B. Staying healthy. C. Getting good grades.3. What does the underlined expression “big shots” in the third paragraph mean A. 好学生 B. 神枪手 C. 大人物4. According to the passage, which sentence may agree with the writer’s idea A. It takes money to be successful. B. School grades aren’t everything. C. Successful people never finish school.5. What can we infer (推断) from the text A. Old habits die hard. B. Learning is a lifelong journey. C. Good grades always promise a successful life.Passage 12（2021江苏扬州）Ever wondered why your virtual（虚拟的）home helper doesn't understand your questions Or why your navigation app took you on the side street instead of the highway In a study published April 21st in the journal iScience, Italian researchers, Arianna Pipitone and Antonio Chella, designed a robot that “thinks out loud”.To explore how inner speech might influence a robot’s actions, the researchers built a robot called Pepper that speaks to itself. It has the ability to reason and think. They then asked people to set the dinner table with Pepper according to etiquette（礼仪）rules. In one experiment, the user asked Pepper to lay the napkin at the wrong place, going against the rules. Pepper started asking itself a series of self-directed questions and concluded that the user might be mistaken. To be sure, Pepper confirmed the user’s order, which led to further inner speech.“Ehm, this situation troubles me. I would never break the rules, but I can’t make the user unhappy, so I’m doing what he wants,” Pepper said to itself, laying the napkin where it was required to be. Through Pepper’s inner voice, the user can learn Pepper was facing a difficult situation and solved it by prioritizing the user’s order.Comparing Pepper’s actions with and without inner speech, Pipitone and Chella discovered the robot had a higher task-completion rate when having self-dialogue.However, some people find the robot spends more time completing tasks when it talks to itself. The robot’s inner speech is also limited to the knowledge that researchers gave it. Pepper’s designers still say their work provides a framework（构架）to further explore how self-dialogue can help robots focus, plan, and learn. “In some ways, we are creating a generational（世代的）robot that likes to chat. From navigation apps and the camera on your phone to medical robots in the operation rooms, machines and computers alike can take advantage of this chatty feature,” says Chella.1. Why does the writer ask two questions at the very beginning of the passage A. To draw the reader’s attention to the topic. B. To show the writer likes electronic products.C. To tell the reader about the history of robots.D. To prove the writer often faces trouble in life.2. Why was Pepper asked to lay the napkin at the wrong place A. To see how much time Pepper spent laying the napkin.B. To confirm how popular Pepper was among its users.C. To test how many etiquette rules Pepper remembered.D. To study how self-dialogue might influence Pepper’s actions.3. What does the underlined word “prioritizing” in Paragraph 3 mean A. repeating B. dealing with… first C. going against D. complaining about4. What can we infer from the passage A. The designers are proud of their work about Pepper.B. Pepper has already been in use in the operation rooms.C. Pepper’s inner speech depends on its user’s communication skills.D. With or without inner speech, Pepper could complete a task equally well.Passage 13（2021江苏苏州）Everybody has a brain, but not many people know how the brain works. Some people believe that the brain is like the hard disk of a computer. We use it to store files—pictures, language (words, texts, sounds) and so on. Others compare the brain to a huge cupboard with lots of shelves and boxes in it. We put information into these boxes and hope to find it again later.The brain is not A computer disk, And it isn’t a cupboard. Look at the picture here. It looks a bit like weeds（杂草）in a garden, doesn’t it The picture actually shows a child’s neocortex—a part of the brain that controls sight and hearing. You can guess what happens—more “weeds” grow as the child gets older. Scientists call these neuronal（神经元）networks. The networks grow around our neurons. -What makes them grow Learning! “Learning is brain change,” says Professor James Zull from Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. “Without learning, nothing changes in the brain. For every new word you learn in your English lesson, every problem you solve in maths, every new song you learn to sing, a neuronal network grows in your brain and the brain changes.”The more neuronal networks we grow, the better we can think and the better we remember. You may wonder if there is anything you can do to make the networks in your brain grow better. Professor Zull says yes, there is. He says that brain change is strongest when a) you are interested in and like what you are learning, b) you are in control of what you learn and c) you get challenging tasks that make you think hard. Understanding a challenging task makes you feel good and develops your brain.1. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph A. The brain—a fantastic computer. B. What people believe about the brain.C. How to make your brain stronger. D. Our brain—a growing system.2. What can we learn from the passage 2 A. Learning makes our neuronal networks grow. B. Seeing a challenging task develops our brain.C. We remember better when things are easy. D. There’s nothing we can do to make us smarter.3. What’s the best title for the passage A. Interest is the best teacher B. Meeting life’s challengesC. Never too late to learn D. Learning is brain changePassage 14（2021北京）When I was in the eighth grade, my class was assigned(指派) to be friends with the second-grade kids. I got this little girl named Shelley. The first time I saw her, she was silent and cold. She was small for her age, and she didn’t play with the other kids in her class.I tried all kinds of things to get her to talk to me. I bought her toys, crayons and candies. But try as I might, nothing worked. One time, I gave her a coloring book and said, “Shelley, now you can color at any time.”Shelley looked at the coloring book and then looked up at me, and finally looked away. By that, I didn’t know how I was going to get through to the little girl, but I knew I wouldn’t give up on her.One Friday, I decided to tell her a story about my childhood. I told her that I felt lonely when I was with my classmates, and how I thought only my teachers liked me. I also told her that every day was a battle(战役) for me and I fought back tears so people wouldn’t know how much I was hurting.She sat there just listening, trying to decide whether I was lying or not. Finally, when my story ended, there were tears in her eyes. And then she did the unthinkable. She said, “Thank you.” From then on, Shelley was a different little girl. She started smiling and talking with other kids.Looking back at this, I’m in awe(惊叹), because all I did was to help her realize that she wasn’t alone. I didn’t ask her to tell her story, because her story is my story.1. What was Shelley like when the writer first saw her A. Cold. B. Lazy. C. Noisy. D. Slow.2.

But Felix Bock would see boxes, tables, shelves and so on.In 2016, Felix Bock, a doctoral student at the University of British Columbia, Canada, found out people threw away about 100,000 pairs of chopsticks every day in Vancouver alone. He felt the need to do something. So he started the company ChopValue in the same year. The company collected used chopsticks from restaurants, schools and shopping centers in Canada and the US and turned them into furniture and other artworks. Now in its fifth year, with the rapid growth of the company, Bock employs 40 people, and using his special methods of steam and press machines, he has recycled 32 million pairs of chopsticks.Bock takes pride in his work. And he hopes the idea behind ChopValue will help people rethink what they see as waste. “I believe every small action can help,” he said. “And I am happy that my business provides a new way for people.” Hundreds of restaurants across North America pay a small sum of money to Bock for the recycling of their used chopsticks. Bock doesn’t stop there. Now he is busy taking his business to more countries and has set up factories for recycling local wood like chopsticks in 10 countries.1.
