Easter Day, which will fall on Sunday, April 17th this year, dates back to 325 AD. It is celebrated by hundreds of millions of people around the world. In my family, it is considered as the greatest holiday of a year.
Every Easter my brothers and I wake up early and, like on Christmas morning, run downstairs to see what surprises are waiting for us. We are always excited when the Easter Bunny, who is like Father Christmas，comes and leaves us a basket of candy. It’s like there is a miracle every Easter morning.
Our mother, however, doesn’t let us eat chocolate as much as we want. The chocolate bunnies and candy eggs have to wait. Instead, we have to get dressed in our new clothes.
Then our family go to church. After that we go to an elder family member’s house for a party. My mother’s family is from Eastern Europe, so we often eat many traditional European dishes. My favorite is ham and a special potato salad. We usually have 20 or more family members at the dinner.
After dinner, my cousins, brothers and I go outside. While we are sleeping the night before Easter, our parents have hidden plastic eggs in the backyard. We always have a contest to see who can find the most eggs. The winner will get a prize. It is our annual Easter Egg Hunt. Sometimes, in summer, we may discover an egg we missed at Easter.
56. When will Easter come this year?
A. On April 1st. B. Next Sunday. C. On April 17th. D. In 325 AD.
57. Who does the writer expect to come every Easter?

Recently, an elderly woman touched many people’s hearts. She was honored as a role model in China’s fight against poverty (贫穷). Her name is Xia Sen.
Over the past years, 98-year-old Xia Sen has given away most of her personal savings to help students from poor families in Danfeng, Shaanxi, and Shangyou, Jiangxi get an education.
Born in 1923, Xia was only 15 years old when she became a teacher in Yan’an. While teaching she kept learning. Years later, she went to work as a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
In 2006, Xia visited Xijie Primary School in Danfeng. The school was old and in bad condition. That made her very sad. She spent 20,000 yuan buying desks and books for the students.
In 2008, she took out 200,000 yuan and helped Zhaogou Primary School in Danfeng build a classroom building. It is a building with eight bright and clean classrooms, which is a complete change from what their old classrooms looked like.
Five years later, Xia used 1 million yuan of her savings to set up the “Xia Sen Scholarship (夏森助学金)” to help high school and college students from poor families in Danfeng and Shangyou. So far, at least 182 students have gotten help from the scholarship to pay for their education.
Some students who got Xia’s scholarship went to Xia’s home to visit her in 2018. To their surprise, Xia and her husband led a very simple life. “I was moved by Granny Xia and her husband,” one student said.
Though Xia and her husband have given away most of their savings to help the poor students, they always say that what they have done is far from enough. Xia often says her life is much better than her life in Yan’an. Now her only hope is that she can help more students.
60. What happened when Xia was 15 years old?
A. She left Yan’an. B. She went to college.
C. She became a teacher. D. She studied in Danfeng.
61. What did Xia do for Zhaogou Primary School?
A. She gave away 20,000 yuan to it.
B. She gave talks to encourage its students.
C. She bought desks and books for its students.
D. She helped build a classroom building for it.
62. Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. A role model B. A big change C. A big honor D. An elderly couple
C
Do you know a thing or two about the International Day of Happiness? Is it a day to practice positive (积极乐观的) thinking? Actually, it’s a United Nations (UN) project and it has a more serious purpose.
How did the idea start?
The idea goes back to 1972. The King of Bhutan, Jigme SingyeWangchuck, said that we should measure (判定) a country’s progress by its happiness and not just how much money it makes. He called it Gross National Happiness (GNH). Bhutan developed a method to measure happiness. It took many things into consideration like people’s psychological (心理的) health, their general health, how they spend their time, where they live, their education and their environment. People in Bhutan answer about 300 questions, and the results are compared every year. The government uses the results and the ideas behind GNH to make decisions for the country.
In 2011, a man called Jayme Illien suggested that there should be an international day to increase happiness. The UN accepted his suggestion and each year the day is celebrated on 20 March.
The World Happiness Report
The UN measures and compares the happiness of different countries in the World Happiness Report. The UN also sets goals of happiness for countries. It says happiness should not be something people can get only when they are lucky. Like many other things including peace, education and healthcare, happiness is a basic human right (人权) too.
63. The suggestion for the International Day of Happiness was accepted by the UN _________.
A. in 1972 B. since 1972 C. in 2011 D. for 11years
64. What does the UN measure and compare in the World Happiness Report?
A. How much money a country makes.
B. The happiness of different countries.
C. The population of a country.
D. The comfortable weather and the tasty food.
65. The UN believes that happiness is _________.
A. peace without a war
B. good education and healthcare
C. a basic human right like peace, education and healthcare.
D. brave and hardworking people

Anna Du was walking along the beach when she noticed plastics there. She reached down to pick them up, and quickly realized there were many more tiny pieces than she could deal with. It seemed impossible to clean them all up.
Du, 12 years old at the time, tried to solve the problem like any good scientist—first, by doing a little research. That’s how she learned that 8 million tons of plastics end up in the oceans every year.
Then she got to work building something that could help solve the problem: a remote-operated vehicle (遥控潜水器), or ROV. Her ROV can move through water and find plastics on the ocean floor.
The actually cool part of Du’s ROV is the detection system. She uses a camera along with three different kinds of light to find the plastics. She also uses visible (可见的) light to find unnatural colors that might make the plastics stand out.
“She has a very good engineering sense to break down a problem like this and then go after it,” says engineer Casey Machado. “It sounds simple, but it’s a level of thinking that’s really amazing.”
Du started attending public events and workshops at a university when she was five years old, and so she picked up the engineering skills necessary to build her ROV. She says actually getting her ROV to move through water well was not easy. She failed many times, but she never gave up trying and testing.
When asked about future plans, she mentions wanting to address the effects of climate change. “I think there are a lot of problems that could be solved with new inventions,” says Du.
Du thanks her parents, who for years have taken her to student outreach activities, for supporting her interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). She says she has been able to meet students and scientists there.
“I know I want to be an engineer because I like building things to help solve the world’s problems,” says Du. “But I’m not sure what kind of engineer I want to be yet.”
66. Anna Du noticed ________ while walking along the beach.
A. paper B. plastics C. shells D. sand
67. What can Du’s ROV do?
A. It can find the plastics easily on the beach.
B. It can clean plastics all up on the earth.
C. It can move through water and find plastics on the ocean floor.
D. It can help address the effects of climate change.
68. Why does Du want to be an engineer in the future?
A. Because she learns a lot from the students and scientists.
B. Because she likes building things to help solve the world’s problems.
C. Because her parents want her to work as an engineer.
D. Because she failed many times in her tests.
69. What made Du succeed in building her ROV?
A. A good engineering sense. B. The spirit of never giving up.
C. The support from her parents. D. Above all.

When talking about Chinese literature, Journey to the West is often at the top of people’s lives. It is a classic novel written in the sixteenth century by Wu Cheng’en (about 1500--1583). It is one of the most well-known Chinese literary works in the west.
Journey to the West’s popularity has made it an inspiration for many Western works-and not just in the world of literature. Fred Ho, an American musician, wrote an opera called Journey Beyond the West: The New Adventures of Monkey. The opera, which includes kung fu performances and other Chinese elements, borrows directly from Journey to the West.
Characters from Journey to the West have also appeared in many Western video games, including Over watch, War frame and League of Legends. And recently in 2017, Netflix hosted a South Korean show called A Korean Odyssey that is a comedic retelling of the past Journey story.
But why has Journey to the West lasted not just for ten years, but for centuries?
James Trapp, a writer for the British Council, suggests that Sun Wukong, known to most Western readers as the Monkey King, is the reason for the novel’s lasting popularity. “In many ways, the Monkey King is the archetype of the folk hero, or in modern terms, the superhero,” Trapp wrote. In these ways, the Monkey King is similar to Western folk heroes such as Huckleberry Finn. However, he has been around for much longer than many of these heroes.
The story itself is similar to that of the Western classic Odyssey, a Greek poem about a hero’s journey of self-discovery and victory. Its similarity to famous Western stories has made Journey to the West popular among Western readers for centuries.
70. What do we know about Journey to the West?
A. It is the most famous novel in China.
B. It’s a literary work in the fifteenth century.
C. It is very popular in the Western world.
D. It makes no difference to Western literature.
71. The underlined word “archetype” means __________ in Paragraph 5.
A. guide B. model C. head D. father
72. Journey to the West can keep popular for centuries in the west ___________.
①. because of its main hero the Monkey King
②. because it is similar to famous Western stories
③. because a writer from the British Council thinks highly of it
④. because the writer Wu Cheng’en spent tens of years writing it
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①③ D. ②④

In 1951 Rachel Carson published her first book The Sea Around Us, which became a bestseller. It made her rich enough to leave her job as a biologist and devote her life to writing.
Her 1962 book Silent Spring completely changed the way America thought about nature. It describes the harmful changes in the environment of using harmful chemicals on farmland. It painted a bleak(荒凉的) future for the whole natural world. It led to a nationwide ban (禁止) on the use of a deadly chemical called DDT, and other harmful pesticides (农药) that farmers used for their crops. Many people say the book led to the creation of America’s Environmental Protection Agency. And she became a well-known writer
Since her death, Carson’s name has continued to be connected with protecting the environment. There is now a yearly Rachel Carson Book Prize. Norway awards the Rachel Carson Book Prize to women who have made great contributions to the field of environmental protection. .

Dear Headmaster,
I’m Li Hua, a student from Class 5, Grade 9,Yucai Middle School. Recently, I feel it’s really great news that the “double reduction” policy has been carried out in my school，and it has definitely changed my life in various ways.
Firstly, we don’t have too much schoolwork burden, which means we are able to put our hearts into finishing homework effectively. Secondly, there are colourful school activities that we can join in. And it’s a wonderful way for us to develop some hobbies. Thirdly, since after-school training institutions aren’t allowed to open, we have plenty of time to do some meaningful work which can enrich our after-school life. 
However, I’m eager to know how we can make the best use of our time after school and which after-school activities are suitable for us students.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Your sincerely, 
Li Hua

According to many scientists, our world will be very different in 2050.
By 2050 we will have “clever” cars. We won't have so many accidents, because they will be able to communicate with each other. Cars will slow down by themselves or stop in dangerous situations.
By 2050 our homes will be more environment-friendly. We will use clean energy, and we will recycle our water. We will have robots to help clean, cook and do our home shopping.
By 2050 there will be too many people on the earth and over 90 million people will be living on the moon and other planets. And the best news may be that we won't die! We will put our brains onto computers and live forever. The computers of the future won’t look like machines. They’ll look like humans.
