On April 19th, an exhibition about pottery (陶器) was held at Wuhan Optical Valley Experimental School. Many pieces of pottery in different sizes were shown at the school. Some were a bit broken, 1.but all of them were objects of beauty made by the students.
At the end of last year, the school started a project that called on teachers to collect disused or broken pieces of pottery from the countryside. So for, they have collected almost 3, 000 pieces. “2.陶器过去在人们的日常生活中扮演了重要的角色,” school headmaster Ma Guoxin told the reporter. “By pottery painting, the students can improve themselves in many ways. 3.They can have a better understanding of the history of pottery and show the love for life.
Students turned the pottery into different works of art. 4.They were all encouraged to paint pictures on them, even though some students were still beginners. Slowly, they became better at painting on the pottery. In March, the school held a pottery painting competition. Wang Zixuan, a student from Grade Nine, with little knowledge of painting, painted a beautiful night scenery Thanksgiving Day has become a public holiday (风景) on a piece of pottery.
It was so nice that many students loved it. Almost every classroom has colored pieces of pottery. They are either used as flowerpots (花盆) or pen containers (笔筒). The school has also set up several art comers to show the pottery. For example, the students have put some pottery on bookcases outside of a lecture hall (报告厅). 5.它已经变成了学生们放松的好地方。

24、 It was Sunday. I had the last patient to see. She was an old woman. I walked in and saw from her chart that she was in good condition. I was almost done.
The woman was sitting on the bed, trying to put on her socks. She asked if I could help her. Instead, I started a monologue (长篇大论): “How are you feeling? You look worried. The nurse said your son is visiting you today. I bet you really look forward to seeing him.”
She stopped me with a serious voice: “Sit down, Mr. Green. This is my story, not yours.”
I was surprised. I sat down and helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him for five years. She believed her health problems were worse because of missing her son. After hearing her story, I asked if there was anything else I could do. She shook her head and smiled. All she had wanted me to do was listen.
For years I have met many patients. They have their own stories. Each story is different. Some are clear; others are not. Some are true; others are not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard.
Listening to someone’s story costs nothing but it is the key to healing (康复). I often think of what the woman taught me, and I always tell myself the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. I believe in the power of listening.

25、 People around the world love their pets. Cats are very popular. Their strange and funny behavior has made them really popular on the Internet, too. And English has many cat expressions.
Today we talk about one that is about canaries（金丝雀）. With the beautiful feathers and lovely bird-song, many people keep them as pets. Some cats like to catch such small birds. So, if a cat eats one, it may have a look on its face that shows both pride and guilt（内疚）. The cat was happy when it did it even if it was wrong.
If I look very proud but a little guilty for doing something, others can say that I “look like the cat that ate the canary”. This means, “I should not have done it, and I know it was wrong. But I am still pleased with myself!”
When using this expression, don’t forget the guilt part. If you have a friend who didn’t study hard but still passed the test because she cheated and still looked proud of it… then the expression will work quite well.
Now, we use this expression in other situations. When we have a secret, we may look hike the cat that ate the canary. We also use it when we feel smug. It means you are too proud of yourself. This kind of people are also hiding something from others or simply not telling all the details.
【1】What does the underlined word “smug” in Paragraph 5 probably mean in Chinese ________.
A．自豪的
B．内疚的
C．不以为然的
D．自鸣得意的
【2】Which paragraph shows how this expression “look like the cat that ate the canary” is created?
A．Paragraph 2.
B．Paragraph 3.
C．Paragraph 4.
D．Paragraph 5.
【3】Why can cats be popular on the Internet?
A．Because they are proud and guilty.
B．Because they are lovely and beautiful.
C．Because they can catch the small birds.
D．Because they have strange and funny behavior.
【4】What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A．We use this expression in only one situation.
B．We shouldn’t be too pleased with ourselves.
C．We can use this expression in other situations.
D．We should try to hide something from others.
【5】What would be the best title for the text?
A．A cat and a Canary
B．An expression about pets
C．You shouldn’t make such friend
D．Don’t put a cat and a canary together
26、Sports, drama, and all kinds of organizations keep students busy during high school. Where do they get the money to do these things? Not everyone gets it from parents. Most have to work for at least some of the money to pay for these activities. Some adults question if high school students should have jobs. I say yes, they undoubtedly should.
Some people worry that teens with after-school jobs will have difficulty finding time for schoolwork. Actually, having a job helps teens make better use of their time. Many jobs take only a couple of hours on weeknights. According to an article, 86 percent of high school students have an after-school, weekend or summer job and students who work between 10 and 20 hours per week during the school year get higher grades than those who do not work at all. Instead of considering working after school a hindrance, it should be looked at as real-world education.
Other people think that work adds too much stress（压力）, which may be somewhat true, but whether having a job or not, there is always stress. Better to learn how to deal with busy schedules（日程表）in a controlled environment like high school than to be out on your own and alone in the future, experiencing stress for the first time. I personally would be worried about the teenager who has to become independent without having any experience of working.
The biggest reason teens should work is that it is a healthy way of making money. There are many things teens need to pay for and they cannot do it if they don’t have a job. Not all parents can pay for these activities. My dad told me, “Having a job is a good way to save up for things you are going to need or want to do. You get a lot more out of things if you pay for them yourself.” The sooner kids make money, the sooner they can learn how to use money wisely. If they are not allowed to work in high school, they may have a hard time in the future. Teens should, without a doubt, be allowed to work on school nights.
【1】The word “hindrance” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.
A．something that encourages teens to study
B．something that helps teens improve study
C．something that prevents teens from studying
D．something that makes teens lose interest in study
【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A．Teens are too busy with study to work at high school.
B．Teens experience stress for the first time at high school.
C．Teens are worried about being independent in the future.
D．Teens who work will deal with stress better in the future.
【3】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Working makes teens get lower grades.
B．Working teaches teens to spend money more wisely.
C．Working helps teens to get on better with their parents.
D．Working stops teens from taking part in after-school activities.
【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．What money means to teens.
B．Why teens should work after school.
C．Whether parents should help teens find jobs.
D．How teens get money for after-school activities.

28、Kites have a long history. In the Warring State p【1】, Mozi made a bird out of wood, that is the first kite in history. But a long time ago, Chinese made kites to use in wars. They would fly these war kites in the dark. The kites were fixed so that they made s【2】 sounds. Men who were at war with them would hear these sounds and run away.
