Alex and his classmates are working on a project about the Great Lakes. Here is the information sheet they have made.
Part 1: Facts The Great Lakes—Ontario, Huron, Michigan, Erie and Superior—are five freshwater giants. They span across eight US states and two Canadian provinces. |
Part 2: Comparison ●Lake Ontario This lake has the smallest surface area at 7,336 square miles. Three dams (大坝) control the flow of water downstream and include locks so boats can enter from the Atlantic. ●Lake Huron This is the second largest lake by surface area in the system and home to Manitoulin Island, the world’s largest freshwater island. ●Lake Michigan It is joined to Lake Huron by the five-mile-wide Straits (海峡) of Mackinac, though they are still classed as two separate bodies. ●Lake Erie With a depth of 64 metres, this is the shallowest of the Great Lakes. It is generally the warmest, but also gets frozen more quickly than the others. ●Lake Superior At 406 metres deep, the distance from the lake’s surface to its deepest point is about the same as the length of four football pitches. |
Part 3: Covering an area of 94,250 square miles, these huge bodies of water take up more than one-fifth of the world’s total freshwater. The Great Lakes provide drinking water for more than 40 million people, important shipping routes for more than 800 ocean ships, and keep a rich ecosystem for fishing and agriculture. They also support wildlife, the national economy and the environment. |

Inside the hall, the door was shut, and the key lay on the glass stand. Poor Alice, who was about one foot high after taking some drink, found a cake on the floor. She went up and soon ate all the cake.
“How strange! How tall I am!” said Alice. She looked down at her feet—they seemed so far off. In fact, she was now over nine feet high, which meant she still couldn’t get through the door. She sat down, and had a good cry till there was a large pool all round her.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of feet not far off. It was the Rabbit that had come back, with a fan in his hand. Alice felt so in need of help from someone, that when he came near, she called out, “If you please, sir....” The Rabbit started as if shot, dropped the fan and ran off as fast as possible.
Alice picked up the fan and as the hall was hot, she fanned herself. “Dear, dear! How strange all things are today! I do wish to get out of the hall!
” she said.
Then she noticed herself in the glass—she was now not more than two feet high, and still shrinking quite fast. That was the fan! She realized this and dropped it at once, or she would shrink to the size of an ant soon.
Alice was in a sad fear at the quick change. “Things are worse,” said the poor girl, “I was never so small as this. How can I get out?” As she said these words, she lost her footsteps and was up to her chin (下巴) in salt water—her own tears.
Just then Alice noticed a mouse swimming towards her![]()
“Will it be useful now to speak to this mouse? All things are so strange here. I should think maybe it can talk. At least there’s no harm to try.” So she swam up.
—— Adapted from Alice in Wonderland

Have you ever wondered what else you can do on the train besides sleeping or scrolling through your phone? Actually, in China, trains have turned into centres which bring together the public and the nation’s intangible cultural Heritage (ICH,非物质文化遗产).
Trains go across China and they are becoming ideal places for introducing local traditional culture. A good example is the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province. On the ICH train, Gulayier, dressed in traditional clothes, sang Oroqen folk songs and his partner played the Oroqen jaw harp, a musical instrument. Tourists on the train, especially those from southern China, sang and danced excitedly with the two performers (表演者) together. Gulayier said the train made it easier to hold tourists’ attention to his shows. He thought the train was a good platform for promoting (促进) ICH.
Traditional heritage comes to life on trains. More ICH such as Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows, and tea-picking operas in Guangxi have also made appearances on high-speed trains across China. It offers passengers a close-up way to experience traditional culture.
Professor Xiao Fang from Beijing Normal University shares Gulayier’s opinion on the new use of ICH trains. He has pointed out another advantage of this. Beyond cultural promotion, it offers help for tourism. When passengers enjoy local traditions on board, they often develop a deeper interest in exploring the places they pass through.
However, the ICH train journeys still have challenges, including the narrow space on trains and passengers getting on and off at each station. Therefore, some solutions are coming up cultural corners show traditional arts, and QR codes connect to more digital information. These help passengers to explore ICH at their own pace and continue learning after their journey ends.
The success of ICH trains offers valuable lessons for cultural protection worldwide, proving that innovation (革新) and tradition can work together to keep cultural heritage alive for future generations.
38. What is the fresh experience for passengers on the K7041 train?
A. Travelling farther north.B. Joining in live shows.
C. Wearing traditional clothes.D. Having fun on the phone.
39. What do Gulayier and Professor Xiao both agree?
A. ICH encourages more local visits.
B. Trains help make ICH more popular.
C. ICH improves the Chinese train journeys.
D. Passengers welcome performers on ICH trains.
40. What does paragraph 5 mention about the ICH train journeys?
A. Their features and influence.B. Their reasons and results.
C. Their problems and methods.D. Their future and improvement.
41. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Trains push China’s cultural heritage further.
B. China puts arms around local artists on ICH trains.
C. More ICH trains begin running on railways in China.
D. Train passengers share different local cultures of China.
D
Many marine species (海洋物种) depend on specific routes to migrate (迁徙). The routes offer these seafaring travellers the right conditions, at the right time of year, to guide them through the oceans. We humans try to discover the routes and have drawn our own lines, but they are not clear to us because of unexpected changes in nature.
To find out the routes that migratory marine species regularly take, a research team of scientists in Australia and the US have now created an interactive map that shows the paths connecting ocean habitats (栖息地).
The new map, named the Migratory Connectivity in the Ocean (MiCO), collects data and makes it easier for scientists to see where migratory marine species may be falling into the paths. The database (数据库) includes information on 109 species, based on around 30 years of data, and shows where they are going to and from—including which species cross into whose national waters.
“MiCO connects almost 2, 000 important habitats and shows the importance of cross-boundary teamwork,” says the research team. They find that all of the species recorded in MiCO have less protection at some point in their life history because of different situations in different countries. That means no country is able to fully protect migratory species if there is no help from others. “For example, green turtles nest in Costa Rica and migrate north through Nicaragua and out to islands in the Caribbean,” the team says. “Although largely protected in Costa Rica, it is allowed to fish for turtles in Nicaragua and huge numbers are lost off the coast there every year.”
MiCO works to provide useful knowledge on migratory connectivity to help protect marine species. In 2023, a UN report found climate (气候) changes are having bad influence on migratory species. MiCO catches the information from different time periods and the team hopes it may be used to tell those changes in connectivity. MiCO is also expected to collect information on more migratory marine species because there is less than one-third of data collected now.
“So far, the migratory information revealed within the MiCO system only touches the surface of the true connectivity of the global oceans,” the team says.
42. How does the writer lead in the topic?
A. By offering advice.B. By presenting study results.
C. By expressing opinions.D. By giving background information.
43. What is MiCO?
A. A map that humans draw to look for marine species.
B. A route which guides marine species through the oceans.
C. A database that shows the lines marine species migrate along.
D. A system which scientists use for researches on temperature changes.
44. Why does the writer take the example of green turtles?
A. To prove the harm in fishing for migratory species.
B. To show the importance of cross-country teamwork.
C. To share the methods of marine species protection.
D. To explain the reason for marine species to migrate.
45. Which of the following can be the data MiCO collects?
A
Over 10 laws are made on marine species protection.
B. There are mainly 3 elephant species living on the earth.
C. Leatherback turtles travel about 20,000 km from Indonesia to Oregon.
D. Thousands of people visit the whale shark habitat in South Africa every year.

Fashion trends (趋势) are around us, and can be exciting. A trend used to happen in a 20-year cycle, but the latest development of the Internet and clothing business has increasingly cut the length of the cycle short. Now, it seems there comes a new fashion trend every couple of months, but it still follows the same stages:
●A trend is usually first brought in during a big fashion show. Reporters, writers, and some other important people collect what they have learned in the show and predict a trend in the near future.
●Then the trend is talked about online and finally worn by famous people to make it better accepted, which leads to the rise of the trend.
●Once the trend becomes popular, it will go to the public soon. Large clothing companies and shops begin following the trend so that everyone can get their hands on it. This is when the trend gets to the highest point.
●After that, the trend usually falls and becomes out of date. However, this is not always the end, as trends happen in broader cycles and most get popular again.
Trends can be a great way to try something new and test your style. A survey says some people enjoy following trends because they keep fashion exciting and provide fresh ideas. However, others may not think so, especially when a trend doesn’t agree with how they feel about themselves. Trends can be fun, but sometimes prove a waste of money because many simply see trends as brands (品牌). So, should we follow fashion trends?
Clearly, there’s no right answer whether to follow trends or not depends on how they go with your values, spending, and sense of self. It does not hurt to watch trend reports but never choose to follow them unless you really think they fit with your personal style.
56. How long does a new fashion trend last now?
__________________________________________________________________________________________
57. Who usually first realizes a new fashion trend?
__________________________________________________________________________________________
58. Which situation means the trend has reached the highest point?
__________________________________________________________________________________________
59. Why do some people dislike following trends according to the survey?

60. Do you prefer brands when buying clothes? Why or why not?

To present the beauty of our school, we plan to record the people. We will mainly focus on our teachers and classmates during their daily activities, like teaching, studying together, or helping each other. We plan to take photos and write short notes about these heartwarming moments. Photos capture real expressions and feelings instantly, making the beauty vivid. Then, we will share them on the school website or our club’s social media page. This way, more people inside and outside school can see the warm human spirit in our school.
From this activity, we expect to understand our school community better and learn to appreciate the kindness around us. We also hope to work better as a team.
