My grandfather often said "I won't" to show his dislike of dishonesty（不诚实）. When he was young, he worked    1．    a furniture（家具）maker. One day, a neighbor invited him to make some furniture.

Around the same time, another furniture maker was also asked for a    4．     job by a different family. Unlike my grandfather, he    5．     working right away.

It was the last day of the school year. The classroom was filled with excitement. When our teacher, Mr. Johnson, walked in, holding a CD player, everyone's face lit up with a smile. We knew that this wasn't going to be another normal day, but a special one.

"Please calm down and sit," said Mr. Johnson, "I'm glad everyone's here for the final reading test of the year." When everyone cried, Mr. Johnson laughed, saying it was just a joke. Then he reminded us that we still had a job to do. "You need to clean out your desks and put all your things into your backpacks." he added gently.

As we began our task, Mr. Johnson turned on the CD player. The lively music made the room feel like a party. Some of us started singing along with the music, others were dancing around their desks while they were cleaning them out. Even Mr. Johnson showed us a few dance steps, making everyone laugh heartily. After we finished cleaning, someone asked, "When is break time?" Mr. Johnson took out some balls and started playing with them. Suddenly, he let the balls drop and said, "Break time starts ... now!"

Just as we were about to rush out, our headmaster, Mrs. Miller, appeared at the door. "Mr. Johnson!" she cried out. A moment of silence fell over the room as we thought, "Mr. Johnson might be in trouble." However, to our surprise, Mrs. Miller couldn't help but laugh at the sight and left us to enjoy our break.

During break time Mr. Johnson surprised us with another treat. He went to the cafe and came back with ice creams for everyone. We all cheered for him!

As we walked back to the classroom, we passed Mrs. Miller's office. Someone joked, "Don't play with the ice creams, Mr. Johnson!" We all laughed together...

①Have you ever thought about what's more important, looking fashionable or feeling comfortable? You might have noticed many people choosing style over comfort and some even go to extremes（极端）to follow fashion. But we should remember: being fashionable isn't everything. It's more important to be healthy.

②Some people believe that they need to be a certain size to look good. So, they start extreme diets（日常饮食）that are not good for their health. They might not eat meals or eat too little, which can make them feel sick. Is it a healthy way to live?

③Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels. They might think high heels make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably, and it can increase risks of falls. Some even wear tight（紧的）clothes that influence blood circulation（循环）making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health?

④Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often or at very high temperatures can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money?

⑤So, let's rethink what's really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being? Clothes or hairstyles don't tell us anything about a person's character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let's eat properly and exercise regularly. Remember, your worth is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person.

23．Why do some people go on extreme diets according to the passage?

A．Because the diets are healthy.

B．Because they just want to look good.

C．Because they want to save time.

D．Because they want to save money.

24．What is the writer's purpose of using a question in each paragraph?

A．To ask for help from readers.

B．To tell how to spend time and money.

C．To describe the latest fashion.

D．To lead readers to think about the topic.

25．What does the underlined word "well-being" in Paragraph 5 mean?

A．Growth. B．Health. C．Warmth. D．Wealth.

26．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

A． B． C． D．

Plants are more than just pretty to look at. They give us fruits, vegetables and food we eat. Some plants even provide materials for medicine or building things. But do you know that plants can do something even more amazing? They can make our homes, schools and workplaces much healthier.

We spend a large part of our day indoors. Unluckily, the air inside buildings can often be full of chemicals（化学物质）from many things around us. This poor air quality（质量）can make us feel sick, causing sore eyes and throats, and even making it hard for us to breathe. When the air inside buildings gets really bad, people even call them "sick buildings".

The good news is that plants are like nature's little superheroes. They have a magic power fighting against bad air. Plants breathe in carbon dioxide (CO2) and breathe out oxygen (O2) which we humans need to live. They can also add moisture to the air if it's too dry, making it more comfortable for us to breathe.

____ Scientists have discovered that plants have the ability to take in harmful chemicals, making the air around us safer to breathe. They set up a completely closed building called "bio-home" for experiments. Before they added plants, the air inside was full of chemicals and people found it hard to breathe. But after they added plants, the air got much cleaner and it became easier to breathe. To make the air inside even better, the scientists used different kinds of plants. After a while, the building wasn't a "sick building" any more. People could go inside without feeling unwell.

So you see, plants are fantastic! They are not only beautiful to look at, but they also provide us with food, help create materials and play an important role in our health. They make our indoor environments cleaner and healthier, making us feel better. Next time you see a plant, remember all the amazing things it can do for us!

27．Which of the following is one way for plants to improve the air inside buildings?

A．They breathe out carbon dioxide.

B．They produce oxygen.

C．They give out harmful chemicals.

D．They make the air dry.

28．Which can be the best to fill in the blank ____ in Paragraph 4?

A．But the most amazing thing plants can do is to clean the air.

B．But one interesting thing plants can do is to build things.

C．But plants can provide what humans need to eat.

D．But plants can be used to make medicine for humans.

29．How does the writer support his opinion about plants improving air quality?

A．By telling personal experiences.

B．By providing numbers and forms.

C．By questioning famous scientists.

D．By using scientific experiments.

30．What does the writer mainly want to tell us?

A．Plants are important for providing food.

B．Plants make people look much better.

C．Plants are good for indoor environments.

D．Plants make it easier to build houses.

My Traditional Cultural Experiences

On May 19, our school organized many traditional cultural activities. I was happy that I learned a lot.

In the morning, I visited Ningbo Museum with my classmates and enjoyed the beauty of traditional arts. Everyone was excited to learn about the long history of the city. At noon, we made Ningbo Tangyuan (Dumplings). We learned it was a symbol of family get-togethers. In the afternoon, we read many ancient local stories and shared them in the story-telling competition, learning about the traditional values of our city.

These activities have not only helped me have a better understanding of our city, but also left a lasting influence on my heart and mind.
