Isn’t it amazing how you can hear or read a story a hundred times and yet when you hear it again you learn something new? That happened to me recently when I reread the story below.
In the Middle Ages, a man traveled to a city where they were building a new church in the square. He saw many people working on the great new building. He walked up to a strong man cutting rock and asked him what he was doing. “I am a stone mason（石匠）,” the man said. “I spend all my days cutting and shaping stones.”
The traveler then walked over to a man sawing a beam（锯木头）high above him and called out the same question to him. “I am a carpenter（木匠）,” the man called back. “I spend my days cutting and hammering（锤）wood.”
Finally, the man walked into the church. Deep inside the church walls, the traveler saw and old woman sweeping the floor while she was singing happily to herself. He asked her what she was doing. “I am building a great church,” she said.
I always read that story with a smile on my face. I saw it as a lesson in taking pride in your work and seeing the value in your job. But this time I felt something deeper in my heart. My mind cleared and I saw there was an even deeper meaning to this story. It wasn’t only about how you feel about your job but also about how you live your life. Each one of our lives here is a church. Each choice we make is a stone we lay. Each act of kindness we do is a beam we hammer into place. Each moment of love we create builds it up higher and more beautiful.

A．a stone B．a building C．an act of kindness


What would life be like if you were a rocker, a soccer player, a professor (教授) at Stanford University, and a Nobel Prize winner? Carolyn Bertozzi from the US lives such a cool life!
Bertozzi won the prize for studying the sugar coats of cells (细胞糖衣). She has found a smart way to connect cells by connecting their sugar coats. The cells then have a green color so that scientists can see clearly where they are and how they move. According to the University of California, Berkeley, this finding “offered a springboard (基础) for a wide range of applications (应用)”, such as developing better tests for infectious diseases (传染病) and new treatments for cancer.
Despite her great achievements, Bertozzi said she was not very interested in chemistry until her second year at Harvard University. “The professors made the class very difficult on purpose,” she told Chemistry World magazine. “My classmates complained a lot, but it matched my brain.”
Apart from doing science studies, Bertozzi has lived a colorful life. “She was a keyboarder in out majoring in music,” she said. She also played soccer, and won an athletic scholarship (体育奖学金) from Harvard.
As a female scientist, Bertozzi tries to promote gender equality (促进性别平等). “In the late 1980s, maybe 10 percent of the students were female. ” She told news magazine Chemical &
Engineering News. “There were maybe one or two women in a lab, so we tried to support each other by starting a monthly get-together for all the women students in the department.” In 2022, Bertozzi won an award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science for her work to increase diversity (性别多元) in science.
11．Why did Bertozzi win the Nobel Prize?
A．Because she is a professor at Stanford University.
B．Because she found a way to link cells and make them clearer to see.
C．Because she invented a new treatment for cancer.
12．What made Bertozzi interested in chemistry?
A．Fun at study. B．Her classmates’ words. C．The professors’ difficult classes.
13．According to the passage, Bertozzi ________.
A．once wrote songs for a rock band
B．once studied music at her university
C．lived a colorful life apart from doing research
14．How did Bertozzi promote gender equality in the 1980s?
A．She set an award for women in science.
B．She increased the number of female students by 10 percent.
C．She helped start a monthly get-together for women to support each other.
15．What is the passage mainly about?
A．Nobel Prize winner Betozzi’s life experiences.
B．What female scientists are good at.
C．How Bertozzi worked to win a Nobel Prize.


Ink brushes, ink, paper and inkstones（砚台）are the “Four Treasures of Study”（文房四宝）in China. They have been must-haves for fans of calligraphy（书法）and Chinese painting.
Jiangzhou Chengni inkstone in Shanxi province is one of China’s most famous inkstones. It is known for its fine texture（质地）. It feels like “a baby’s skin” and can do less harm to the brush. Unlike other inkstones made from natural stone, it is made with mud from the Fenhe River. In 2008, the skill of making Jiangzhou Chengni inkstones was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage（国家非物质文化遗产）.
The skill for making Jiangzhou Chengni inkstones can be dated back to the Han Dynasty. However, it was lost at the end of the Ming Dynasty. In 1986, Lin Yongmao, a craftsman（工艺师）from Xinjiang county, Shanxi, and his son Lin Tao decided to bring this ancient skill back to life. It’s not an easy thing. After many failures, they succeeded in making three Chengni inkstones in 1991.
According to them, it takes over a year and more than 10 steps to make a Chengni inkstone. One of the key steps is mud filtering（过滤）. “The mud needs to be filtered over and over again till it feels like flour（面粉）. This is to make sure the texture of clay is right,” he said.
Lin Xiaolin, Lin Tao’s son is a third-generation inheritor（继承人）of the Chengni inkstone craftsmanship. In 2019, after returning from his studies abroad, the 33-year-old created new ways to make the Chengni inkstone. By controlling the temperature of the kiln（窑）, he increased the colors of the Chengni inkstone from three to eight. The young inheritor has also stepped into the online market through e-commerce and livestreaming.
16．What are the “Four Treasures of Study” in China?
A．Pen, ink, paper and inkstones.
B．Ink brushes, ink, paper and inkstones.
C．Ink brushes, ink, notebooks and inkstones.
17．Why is Jiangzhou Chengni inkstone well-known?
A．Because it’s less harmful to the brush. B．Because it’s beautiful. C．Because it’s made in China.
18．Who brought the ancient inkstone art back to life?
A．Lin Yongmao. B．Lin Tao. C．Lin Yongmao and Lin Tao.
19．How long does it take to make a Chengni inkstone?
A．Over a year. B．Five years. C．Ten years.
20．What do we know about Lin Xiaolin?
A．He learned how to make Chengni inkstones abroad.
B．He can make Chengni inkstones in any color.
C．He further developed the skill of making Chengni inkstones.

Do you have difficulty falling asleep at night? If so, here is a piece of advice for you: 21 Scientists have found that soft music can help to improve our sleep. 22 Soft music can help us fall asleep faster, wake up less during the night and feel more rested in the morning. You may not notice the effects overnight, though. It could take at least three weeks to see improvements.
Why can soft music help us to sleep better? The reasons aren’t clear yet. It may have something to do with the relaxing effect of a good song. Music can have real physical effects, too. 23 It’s good for us to fall asleep. Scientists say that for most people, music that has 70 beats (节拍) per minute works best. Classical, jazz and folk music are usually more effective than other musical styles. 24 You may need to experiment to make your own playlists (音乐播放清单). If you are not sure how many beats a song has in a minute, you may find it out on www.songbpm.com. And remember to get the volume (音量) right. Make sure the final piece is the one that slowly fades out (减弱), if you don’t want to be woken up by the sudden silence.
It’s very important to get enough high-quality sleep. 25 Then, just prepare to be rocked off to dreamland!
A．Listen to some soft music.
B．Familiar (熟悉的) songs work well, too.
C．Different kinds music can help you a lot.

F．This works for sleepers of all ages and even for those with sleeping problems.

八、阅读回答问题
The Yangtze River is the longest river in China and the third longest river in the world. It is just after the Nile in Africa and the Amazon in South America. It is about 6,380 kilometers long. It starts from the Tanggula Range and runs through many cities including Qinghai, Tibet, Sichuan, Yunnan, and so on. Finally it runs into the ocean in Shanghai.
During the long history of ancient China, this river helped feed millions of people and developed amazing cultures. The important cities such as Shanghai and Nanjing are sitting along the river.
However, the Yangtze River also faces some problems. In the past, the water in it was clean but now it is dirty. A lot of fish died because of water pollution. Luckily, people realized the importance of protecting the Yangtze River. A program was set up in 1989 to protect the water and land around the river. It was successful because it helped improve the environment. The other program is about endangered animals. It helps protect white-flag dolphins, one of the rarest animals in the world. The number of white-flag dolphins in China dropped because of the pollution in the Yangtze River.
So far, we’ve made some achievements. However, we still have a long way to go to protect the great river. Let’s work together to help our Mother River become as clean as it used to be.
46．Which is the longest river in the world?

47．How long is the Yangtze River?

48．What did the Yangtze River do for ancient China?

49．How many programs were set up to protect the river?

50．Why should we protect the river?
