A
Four Inspiring Movies
Forrest Gump（1992）
Forrest Gump is a simple man with a low IQ but good intentions. This movie follows the fictional story in which the simple man makes his way through some of the more turbulent（动荡的）times from the 1960s through 1980s. This film took home six Oscars, inspired a “Weird Al” song, and proves that a big heart is the most important thing.
It's a Wonderful Life（1946）
No movie list would be complete without a nod to the past. Let's go with this Christmas classic, about a man with serious financial troubles who intends to commit suicide（自杀）by jumping off a bridge. His guardian angel Clarence Odbody stops him and tells him what life would have been like for those close to him had he never been born. Realizing how much he means to others, he rushes back home and all sorts of happy, inspirational, Christmassy things happen.
Dead Poet's Society（1990）
John Keating（Robin Williams）is a high school English literature teacher at a famous all-male boarding school who gets into trouble with the school administration after encouraging his students to challenge authority and think for themselves. It is certainly inspirational, if not also frustratingly sad.
A Beautiful Mind（2001）
This movie tells the story of John Nash（Russell Crowe）, a professor at Princeton, a US university, who revolutionized the field of game theory and fell into madness as a result of paranoid schizophrenia（精神分裂症）. With the love and support of his family as well as the help of medical professionals, he managed to overcome his mental illness and continued to make contributions to the field of mathematics.

Saving a drowning woman is all in a day’s work for two boys who had already collected their swimming and lifesaving merit badges (奖章).
A June heavy storm hit Columbia in Missouri with little warning, causing floodwaters from rivers to burst their banks and overflow zones to turn into ponds.
When 15-year-old Dominic Viet and 16-year-old Joseph Diener passed a basketball court that had turned into a pool, they heard the frantic shouting of a young woman desperately trying to keep her head above water under the force of a current (水流). The boys had seen the woman swimming with a friend there before, but it was now obvious that she was drowning.
“The first thing that came into my mind was to get into the water,” Dominic recalled. “We didn’t have time to think. Her head was barely above the water and we could see her sinking more down every second. We didn’t think about the risks. We had to get her out.”
Heroes will do as heroes do, and pulling her up onto their shoulders, Dominic and Joseph got her ashore, where emergency services arriving at someone else’s call performed first aid and rushed her to the hospital.
The fire department honored the two boys with a “Citizen Life Safety Award”. Assistant Fire Chief Jerry Jenkins described the boys’ act as heroic and courageous. He added, “Floodwaters are no conditions to be swimming in. There can be waste water runoff, loose chemicals, downed power lines charging the current with electricity, or pieces of wood, metal, or brick, etc.”
24．What does the underlined word “frantic” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Angry. B．Low. C．Terrified. D．Patient.
25．What were the two boys’ first reaction when hearing the woman shouting?
A．They worried about the risks. B．They performed first aid at once.
C．They called emergency services. D．They jumped into the water to save her.
26．Which of the following can best describe the two boys?
A．Helpful and brave. B．Humorous and polite.
C．Generous and modest. D．Ambitious and gifted.
27．What message does Jerry Jenkins want to convey?
A．We must be careful with floodwaters. B．Children should learn how to swim.
C．Swimming in floodwaters is attractive. D．Performing first aid is a must for children.
C
In colleges around the country, most students are also workers.
The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television. Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.
This isn't a temporary phenomenon. The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s, and one-fifth of students work year round. About one-quarter of those who work while attending school have both a full-course load and a full-time job. The arrangement can help pay for tuition （学费） and living costs, obviously. And there's value in it beyond the direct cause: such jobs can also be vital for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation. With many employers looking for students with already-developed skill sets, on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.
But it's not all upside. Even full-time work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. The study notes that if a student worked a full-time job at the minimum wage, they would earn just over $15,000 each year, certainly not enough to pay for tuition, room, and meals at many colleges without some serious financial aid. That means that though they're sacrificing （牺牲） time away from the classroom, many working students will still graduate with at least some debt. And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all, by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes.
There is little reward for attending but not finishing college. Students who end up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn't gone to college at all. The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.
28．It can be learned from the passage that today's college students actually _______.
A．attend a number of parties B．work while attending school
C．stay up late all the time D．care little about exams
29．Which of the following factors indirectly causes more students to work?
A．The chance of finding a job after graduation. B．The shortage of holiday jobs for college students.
C．The need of improving social skills. D．The high tuition and living expenses.
30．According to the passage, we know that _______.
A．working students are more likely to graduate from college
B．the pay from working can cover students' college costs
C．working too much while in college may not benefit a student's career
D．students can receive a reward for managing work and class well
31．What is the best title for the passage?
A．An Introduction of Working College Students B．The Advantages of Working While Studying
C．The Struggle to Balance Work and School D．The Difficulties of Landing a Job
D
In 2013, China’s second female astronaut, Wang Yaping, gave the country’s first-ever video lecture from space. The whole lecture lasted about 40 minutes.
Speaking to students through live video, from the Tiangong-I space laboratory, Ms. Wang used spining tops (旋转的陀螺), a ball and sonic water to explain physics in zero-gravity (失重) with the help of a fellow astronaut.
Ms. Wang used different experiments to demonstrate the concepts of weight and mass in space. Towards the end of the class, Ms. Wang made a film (薄膜) of water using a metal ring. She then turned the film of water into a water ball by pouring more water onto it.
Around 330 primary and secondary school students watched the lecture from a special classroom in Beijing, where they could also ask Ms. Wang questions through live video. From time to time, the students greeted her lecture with warm applause. Ms. Wang described what she could see in space. “The stars we see are much brighter, but they do not twinkle.” she said, “The sky we see isn’t blue, but black. And every day, we can see the sun rise 16 times because we circle the Earth every 90 minutes. “About 60 million students and teachers around China also watched the lecture live on TV.
In 2021, China launched the Shenzhou XIII spacecraft early at 00:23 a.m. on October 16th morning at the Jiuquan center. Wang Yaping, 41, is part of a three-member team heading for the Tiangong — or Heavenly Palace — space station, where she is expected to become the first Chinese woman to conduct a spacewalk and will stay inside the country’s Tiangong space station for six months. We are looking forward to her new lectures.
32．According to the passage, what’s the purpose of the space lecture in 2013?
A．To explain physics of zero - gravity in space B．To turn the film of water into a water ball
C．To tell us what can be seen in space D．To show that the Earth is far away from space
33．What does the underlined word “demonstrate” in the passage most probably mean?
A．defeat B．adjust
C．suspect D．show
34．Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Wang Yaping is China’s second female astronaut. B．Wang Yaping gave the lecture from space all by herself.
C．The lecture was warmly welcomed by the students. D．The sky isn’t blue but black when astronauts see it in space.
35．The best title of this passage should be ________.
A．Great achievements in space exploration B．Three awe-inspiring astronauts
C．A popular “science teacher” in space D．So proud to be part of China

Millions of people all over the world use the word OK. In fact, some people say the word is used more often than any other word in the world. OK means all right or acceptable. It expresses agreement or approval. _____36_____Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw (乔克托语). The Choctaw word “okeh” means the same as the American word okay. Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the nineteenth century. But many people doubt this. Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word “OK” in reports published in the 1960s. He said the word began being used in the 1830s.____37____Some foreign-born people wrote “all correct” as “o-l-l-k-o-r-r-e-c-t”, and used the letters OK. Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago. They said he put the first letters of his name——O and K——on each object people gave him to send on the train._____38_____The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840.They called their group the OK club. The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin was born---Old Kinderhook, New York. Then there is the expression A-OK．It is a space-age expression. It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard. He was the first American to be launched into space. His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned. Shepard reported, “Everything is A-OK.”______39______One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received. There are also funny ways to say okay.____40____These expressions were first used in the 1930s. Today, a character on the American television series “The Simpsons” says it another way. He says okely-doke.
A．Some people say okey-dokey or okey-doke．
B．Still others say a political organization invented the word．
C．Therefore, it has become popular in that area from then on．
D．But many experts don’t agree on what the expression means.
E．Still, language experts do not agree about where the word came from.
F．It was a short way of writing a different spelling of the word “all correct”.
G．However, some experts say the expression did not begin with the space age.

Volunteering will make a better you
Hello, everyone! May I have your attention please? It is a great honor for me to stand here to give a speech. Today my topic is “volunteering will make a better you”.
As senior high school students, we should get involved in voluntary activities, because they can not only enrich our campus life and express our concern for others, but also offer us access to society. After all, Learning is just part of our life.
To make our voluntary activities well-organized, we’d better keep the following tips in mind. Firstly, an appropriate schedule is of great importance to balance our study and volunteering. Secondly, among countless options, it is wise to choose the activity based on personal interest. Remember, whatever our choice, dedication and persistence are the key words.
Volunteering will bring out your best side. Let’s take action now and enjoy a meaningful life!

This film took home six Oscars, inspired a “Weird Al” song, and proves that a big heart is the most important thing.
It's a Wonderful Life（1946）
No movie list would be complete without a nod to the past. Let's go with this Christmas classic, about a man with serious financial troubles who intends to commit suicide（自杀）by jumping off a bridge. His guardian angel Clarence Odbody stops him and tells him what life would have been like for those close to him had he never been born. Realizing how much he means to others, he rushes back home and all sorts of happy, inspirational, Christmassy things happen.
Dead Poet's Society（1990）
John Keating（Robin Williams）is a high school English literature teacher at a famous all-male boarding school who gets into trouble with the school administration after encouraging his students to challenge authority and think for themselves. It is certainly inspirational, if not also frustratingly sad.
A Beautiful Mind（2001）
This movie tells the story of John Nash（Russell Crowe）, a professor at Princeton, a US university, who revolutionized the field of game theory and fell into madness as a result of paranoid schizophrenia（精神分裂症）.

Saving a drowning woman is all in a day’s work for two boys who had already collected their swimming and lifesaving merit badges (奖章).
A June heavy storm hit Columbia in Missouri with little warning, causing floodwaters from rivers to burst their banks and overflow zones to turn into ponds.
When 15-year-old Dominic Viet and 16-year-old Joseph Diener passed a basketball court that had turned into a pool, they heard the frantic shouting of a young woman desperately trying to keep her head above water under the force of a current (水流). The boys had seen the woman swimming with a friend there before, but it was now obvious that she was drowning.
“The first thing that came into my mind was to get into the water,” Dominic recalled. “We didn’t have time to think. Her head was barely above the water and we could see her sinking more down every second. We didn’t think about the risks. We had to get her out.”
Heroes will do as heroes do, and pulling her up onto their shoulders, Dominic and Joseph got her ashore, where emergency services arriving at someone else’s call performed first aid and rushed her to the hospital.
The fire department honored the two boys with a “Citizen Life Safety Award”. Assistant Fire Chief Jerry Jenkins described the boys’ act as heroic and courageous. He added, “Floodwaters are no conditions to be swimming in. There can be waste water runoff, loose chemicals, downed power lines charging the current with electricity, or pieces of wood, metal, or brick, etc.”
24．What does the underlined word “frantic” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Angry. B．Low. C．Terrified. D．Patient.
25．What were the two boys’ first reaction when hearing the woman shouting?
A．They worried about the risks. B．They performed first aid at once.
C．They called emergency services. D．They jumped into the water to save her.
26．Which of the following can best describe the two boys?
A．Helpful and brave. B．Humorous and polite.
C．Generous and modest. D．Ambitious and gifted.
27．What message does Jerry Jenkins want to convey?
A．We must be careful with floodwaters. B．Children should learn how to swim.
C．Swimming in floodwaters is attractive. D．Performing first aid is a must for children.
C
In colleges around the country, most students are also workers.
The reality of college can be pretty different from the images presented in movies and television. Instead of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.
This isn't a temporary phenomenon. The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s, and one-fifth of students work year round. About one-quarter of those who work while attending school have both a full-course load and a full-time job. The arrangement can help pay for tuition （学费） and living costs, obviously. And there's value in it beyond the direct cause: such jobs can also be vital for developing important professional and social skills that make it easier to land a job after graduation. With many employers looking for students with already-developed skill sets, on-the-job training while in college can be the best way to ensure a job later on.
But it's not all upside. Even full-time work may not completely cover the cost of tuition and living expenses. The study notes that if a student worked a full-time job at the minimum wage, they would earn just over $15,000 each year, certainly not enough to pay for tuition, room, and meals at many colleges without some serious financial aid. That means that though they're sacrificing （牺牲） time away from the classroom, many working students will still graduate with at least some debt. And working full time can reduce the chance that students will graduate at all, by cutting into the time available for studying and attending classes.
There is little reward for attending but not finishing college. Students who end up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn't gone to college at all. The difficulty of working too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.
28．It can be learned from the passage that today's college students actually _______.
A．attend a number of parties B．work while attending school
C．stay up late all the time D．care little about exams
29．Which of the following factors indirectly causes more students to work?
A．The chance of finding a job after graduation. B．The shortage of holiday jobs for college students.
C．The need of improving social skills. D．The high tuition and living expenses.
30．According to the passage, we know that _______.
A．working students are more likely to graduate from college
B．the pay from working can cover students' college costs
C．working too much while in college may not benefit a student's career
D．students can receive a reward for managing work and class well
31．What is the best title for the passage?
A．An Introduction of Working College Students B．The Advantages of Working While Studying
C．The Struggle to Balance Work and School D．The Difficulties of Landing a Job
D
In 2013, China’s second female astronaut, Wang Yaping, gave the country’s first-ever video lecture from space. The whole lecture lasted about 40 minutes.
Speaking to students through live video, from the Tiangong-I space laboratory, Ms. Wang used spining tops (旋转的陀螺), a ball and sonic water to explain physics in zero-gravity (失重) with the help of a fellow astronaut.
Ms. Wang used different experiments to demonstrate the concepts of weight and mass in space. Towards the end of the class, Ms. Wang made a film (薄膜) of water using a metal ring. She then turned the film of water into a water ball by pouring more water onto it.
Around 330 primary and secondary school students watched the lecture from a special classroom in Beijing, where they could also ask Ms. Wang questions through live video. From time to time, the students greeted her lecture with warm applause. Ms. Wang described what she could see in space. “The stars we see are much brighter, but they do not twinkle.” she said, “The sky we see isn’t blue, but black. And every day, we can see the sun rise 16 times because we circle the Earth every 90 minutes. “About 60 million students and teachers around China also watched the lecture live on TV.
In 2021, China launched the Shenzhou XIII spacecraft early at 00:23 a.m. on October 16th morning at the Jiuquan center. Wang Yaping, 41, is part of a three-member team heading for the Tiangong — or Heavenly Palace — space station, where she is expected to become the first Chinese woman to conduct a spacewalk and will stay inside the country’s Tiangong space station for six months. We are looking forward to her new lectures.
32．According to the passage, what’s the purpose of the space lecture in 2013?
A．To explain physics of zero - gravity in space B．To turn the film of water into a water ball
C．To tell us what can be seen in space D．To show that the Earth is far away from space
33．What does the underlined word “demonstrate” in the passage most probably mean?
A．defeat B．adjust
C．suspect D．show
34．Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Wang Yaping is China’s second female astronaut. B．Wang Yaping gave the lecture from space all by herself.
C．The lecture was warmly welcomed by the students. D．The sky isn’t blue but black when astronauts see it in space.
35．The best title of this passage should be ________.
A．Great achievements in space exploration B．Three awe-inspiring astronauts
C．A popular “science teacher” in space D．So proud to be part of China

Millions of people all over the world use the word OK. In fact, some people say the word is used more often than any other word in the world. OK means all right or acceptable. It expresses agreement or approval. _____36_____Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw (乔克托语). The Choctaw word “okeh” means the same as the American word okay. Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the nineteenth century. But many people doubt this. Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word “OK” in reports published in the 1960s. He said the word began being used in the 1830s.____37____Some foreign-born people wrote “all correct” as “o-l-l-k-o-r-r-e-c-t”, and used the letters OK.

They said he put the first letters of his name——O and K——on each object people gave him to send on the train._____38_____The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840.They called their group the OK club. The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin was born---Old Kinderhook, New York. Then there is the expression A-OK．It is a space-age expression. It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard. He was the first American to be launched into space. His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned. Shepard reported, “Everything is A-OK.”______39______One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received. There are also funny ways to say okay.____40____These expressions were first used in the 1930s. Today, a character on the American television series “The Simpsons” says it another way. He says okely-doke.
A．Some people say okey-dokey or okey-doke．
B．Still others say a political organization invented the word．
C．Therefore, it has become popular in that area from then on．
D．But many experts don’t agree on what the expression means.
E．Still, language experts do not agree about where the word came from.
F．It was a short way of writing a different spelling of the word “all correct”.

Volunteering will make a better you
Hello, everyone! May I have your attention please? It is a great honor for me to stand here to give a speech. Today my topic is “volunteering will make a better you”.
As senior high school students, we should get involved in voluntary activities, because they can not only enrich our campus life and express our concern for others, but also offer us access to society. After all, Learning is just part of our life.
To make our voluntary activities well-organized, we’d better keep the following tips in mind. Firstly, an appropriate schedule is of great importance to balance our study and volunteering. Secondly, among countless options, it is wise to choose the activity based on personal interest. Remember, whatever our choice, dedication and persistence are the key words.
Volunteering will bring out your best side. Let’s take action now and enjoy a meaningful life!
