Once upon a time, there was a king who could not sleep for all his worries about what tomorrow might bring.

One day the king found a cobbler in the market, who wore ragged clothes and looked very thin, but his smile was bright as the moon.

" Surely you must worry, how could you smile so brightly?" the king walked close and asked,

"Today I earned enough money fixing shoes to buy a loaf of bread!”

"But what if not tomorrow?”

" I have faith," the cobbler answered. "All will be well. "

This impressed the king, and when he left, he wondered what would happen if the cobbler could not earn his bread.

The next morning in the market, the king decreed: no one allowed to repair shoes. Whenever someone's shoes wore out, that person must buy a new pair.

That evening the king dressed in rags and secretly followed to the cobbler's house to see if he was crying, but through the window, he saw the cobbler drinking soup and smiling.

"But what will you do tomorrow?" the king asked.

" I have faith, " the man said. "All will be well"

How to make festive gift tags （标签）？

In recent years, zero-waste living has been from fashionable topics to a way of life for many people, including myself. And I’ve got an interesting way to help reduce some of that waste.

Last year, I created some free templates （模板）for reusable, zero-waste embroidered （刺绣）gift tags, and I'm excited to stitch （缝）up some more this year. Each one can be made in less than 20 minutes, then reused over and over. Let me show you my steps:

• Print out the gift tag templates, then cut out the design you want to make.

If you're making the tags in card, print them directly onto your cardstock—but if you're making them in felt （毛毡）, print them onto paper and draw the design onto the felt with tailor k chalk.

• Using your sewing needle and embroidery thread, stitch the design on the template using the dots as a guide. It's best to use a back stitch to create the design.

If you're stitching them in felt, you can stitch through both the paper template and the felt, then get away the paper at the end. If you’re stitching a card tag, try not to bend or tear the card as you do this. It might take a little practice to get a good feel for it.

• Build up the design until it's finished, using as many colours of thread as you want.

• Tie off the ends and cut away the extra thread.

• Finally, tie a loop to the top of the tags, and stick the tag to your gifts.

The easiness of these tags makes them the perfect low effort but high effect project. They're perfect for a relaxing afternoon with friends, or you could sit on the sofa with a festive film and create some. It's even more fun with a cup of hot chocolate!

62. The passage probably comes from __________________.

A. a fashion magazine  B. a shopping guide  C. a DIY instruction  D. a sports weekly

63. Which of the following sentences is TRUE?

A. If you're making the tags in felt, print the design onto it.

B. If you're stitching a card tag, bending or tearing the card will be better.

C. Before sticking the tag to your gifts, you should tie a loop to the top of the tags.

D. Each zero-waste embroidered gift tags usually takes me at least 20 minutes to finish.

64. Which of the following examples doesn't match with "low effort but high effect"?

A. Reading a book to spend a lazy happy afternoon.

B. Riding a bicycle-sharing around a beautiful city.

C. Buying a robot to do some cleaning when you5re at home.

D. Using sugar paper to make flowers to decorate your bedroom.

65. What is the writer's main purpose of writing the article?

A. To teach us how to relax.

B. To explain the stitching skills.

C. To encourage us to do more handwork.

D. To introduce an interesting zero-waste living.

六、任务型阅读（共10小题, 每小题1分, 计10分）

阅读下列短文, 根据短文信息完成文后表格, 每空一词。

November is the final exam season, and everyone worries about it. As a student with some exam experiences, I want to share some tips that have helped me face final exams.

First, no waiting. I usually begin my review about two weeks earlier. Although the exam

preparation starts about one week before the final exam. Don't start it when we are worried by a lot of homework and tests. No one in the final weeks will have much memory of what they learnt in one week. I usually go through the notes I took to refresh（恢复）my memory. This helps me get the parts that I do not understand well and be better prepared for the practice exams that I do later. At least, it gives me a sense of control. This can be very important when you lose yourself.

Second, don't stay up. A lot of people stay up late reviewing before the exam, but this is not healthy at all. Sleep is necessary to get back our situations. In fact, sleep can help strengthen（增强）our memories! I recommend this based on（依赖于）my personal experience—I always feel tired the next day if I go to sleep after 2 a.m. Without enough sleep, I can't stay thinking. We don't need to review instead of sleeping time.

Third, study with friends. This may not work for everyone, but I personally find it helpful. Having friends to study with not only provides us with chances to find out blind spots in our understanding but also allows us to have different ways, which are helpful in problem-solving. Also, studying with friends can keep me thinking, and talking to them can make me calm.

Let’s protect our home—the Earth

The Earth is our home, and we only have one Earth, but now it’s facing so much trouble.

More natural disasters happen, like rainstorms, floods and fires. Because of this, thousands of people lose their homes and lives. Moreover, Animals are in danger of their living place and food.

All the trouble exactly comes from the people. To have more space, people cut down too many trees. For a good living, hunters hunt animals for their fur and bones. It’s bad for our environment.

We should take action to protect our home. As students, let’s start with ourselves. For example, we can take a bus to school instead of driving. And if possible, we can take part in some clubs to learn more about wild animals and try to tell others the importance of protecting the Earth.

I hope it’s always a peaceful planet.
