More than ten years after winning the Nobel Prize for Literature, Mo Yan has crossed another milestone in his career since he published （出版） his new play Crocodile （《鳄鱼》） in June of 2023.
The play centers around the main character, Shan Wudan．Shan gets a crocodile as one of the gifts for his birthday．Over the next ten years, all kinds of people come to him．Shan keeps changing the crocodile’s fish tank （鱼缸） into a bigger one．This gives the crocodile more space to grow．In the end, it grows to four meters long.
“The crocodile is a sign of human desire （欲望） and the complexity （复杂） of human nature,” said Mo Yan “Desire makes everything beautiful, but it also makes the evil that can break all things,” he wrote in the play.
Before his Nobel award in 2012, Mo was best known for his novel Red Sorghum, a novel set in 1939 during China’s war against the invading Japanese．In 1987, Zhang Yimou turned the novel into a film．It won the Golden Bear at the Berlin film festival and was the first Chinese movie that won such a big award.

All living things on Earth need water to live, so water is very important．In fact, the water on Earth is moving around all the time．The water cycle （循环） is a natural course that takes water from the ground and the sky and brings it back to Earth again．This course allows water to move from one part of Earth to another．It is a cycle that happens the whole year and is most active in summer at the mouth of the Yangtze River．In this article, we will explore （探索） the water cycle and discuss its importance for Earth.
The water cycle always begins with water vapour （蒸汽）．When it’s hot outside, you can see clouds forming in the sky．These clouds are made of water vapour that comes from the ground, plants and rivers．As water vapour rises into the sky, it cools down and becomes clouds．After that, clouds travel through the sky and fall back to Earth as rain or snow．Then, water runs through rivers and oceans and finally return s to Earth again in different forms like rainwater or snow.
The water cycle plays an important part in protecting our Earth’s climate （气候）．It keeps our climate healthy．On top of that, it takes water from rivers and oceans and brings it to the areas that don’t have enough water．Without the cycle, we would face many problems．When there is too much water in one place, it becomes a flood．When water is badly in need, it becomes a drought （旱灾）．Besides, water vapour can take heat from the sun and keep our Earth cool.
The water cycle is also an important natural course that keeps our planet alive because it’s important for plants and animals to drink water and for our rivers to stay flowing with water．Understanding the water cycle can help us enjoy the beauty of nature, know how our planet works and develop better ways to protect our Earth．And that is a duty we should take on.
38．The water cycle might be most active in ________ at the mouth of the Yangtze River
A．January B．April C．July D．December
39．Which facts of the following are, true according to the passage?
① Water vapour can keep our Earth warm.
②Water returns to Earth in only one form.
③Water vapour becomes clouds when it cools down.
④ There may be some disasters without water vapour.
A．③④ B．②③ C．①② D．①④
40．What’s the structure of this passage? （①=Paragraph 1,②=Paragraph 2…）
41．In the last paragraph, the writer wants us to ________.
A．save water B．protect our Earth C．get close to nature D．protect plants and animals

As an old saying goes, “Eyes are the windows of our mind.” Eyes are very important to us．However, it seems that many people don’t know the importance of p 61 their eyes
Nowadays, many people live a busy life and they have l 62 time to take care of their “windows”．Even when the eyes have something w 63 , telling their owners that they are dry and uncomfortable, these people may just not care about them, and go on with their work．Study takes students a lot of time and they don’t have time to take care of their eyes, either．What’s worse, some of them often do eye exercises c 64 .
We all know that eyes work like a camera．When we use a camera to take photos, we adjust （调节） the focus （焦距） to make our photos become c 65 ．In our eyes, there are also lenses （晶状体） like cameras．But these lenses can’t collect light on their o 66 ．They need the ciliary muscles （睫状肌） to adjust the lenses’ shape.
When you work with your eyes too long, the ciliary muscles will feel t 67 ．As a result, they won’t be able to help the lenses w 68 properly and we won’t be able to see things clearly．If we often use our eyes too much, we will likely get different eye i 69 , such as shortsighted.
Many students have got such eye problems．They spend so much time doing their homework or playing computers that their ciliary muscles can’t get enough rest．As a result, more and more t 70 have to wear glasses.
Let’s take good care of our eyes now.

Gather together some good friends and take a walk through the streets．This is what many young people in China enjoy doing when they visit a new city．City-walk is becoming more and more popular.
City-walk is a special guided trip for a small group of people, or just a relaxing （令人放松的） walk for one or two to explore （探索） cities．City-walk is not about famous places of interest．It leads travellers to walk through the local markets, old streets and city centers in a relaxing way.
Young people are interested in City-walk．They are always busy with study or work．and don’t have much time to explore the local city．However, the growing trend （趋势） of City-walk shows their changing idea towards life—they want a more relaxing and slower lifestyle．Besides, people can make some friends in walking．That’s why young people enjoy City-walk.
When visiting a new city, travellers join the group of City-walk so that they can experience local life and culture．For example, City-walk tours in Nanjing may lead travellers to the Qinhuai River or old neighbourhoods like Xi’nan Li．In these places, travellers can feel the local lives, both in the past and now.
At present, the idea of City-walk is new to most Chinese people．However, many people believe it has a bright future．Zhang Zhi is a tour guide from Beijing．He said, “Travellers nowadays are more and more interested in it.” Many tour guides share their City-walk experiences on the Internet to attract more customers （吸引顾客）.
“By looking at others’ lives in City-walk, we know ourselves better．This helps us find a sense of purpose （目标）,” said Jin Yi, a teacher at Nanjing University.

参考答案
1．C
【详解】句意：——如果我不能通过测试，我能再做一次以获得更好的结果吗？——好的，我同意。你可以再做一次。
考查不定冠词的用法。第一空表示泛指，表示“一个更好的结果”，且better的发音是辅音音素开头，可知用不定冠词a；第二个空表示“再一次”，在英语中表示“再几，又几”用“a+序数词+名词”，a second time再一次。故选C。
2．A
【详解】句意：读柳宗元的诗《江雪》，它是关于风景的。
考查常识和名词辨析。sights风景；geography地理；festivals节日；history历史。根据古诗文“千山鸟飞绝，万径人踪灭。孤舟蓑笠翁，独钓寒江雪。”可知，是描写风景的，出现了hill、path、fisherman、snow、boat等景物。故选A。
