In March, 2021, the much-loved children's author Beverly Cleary passed away at age 104. Cleary's writing changed the world of children's books by showing that stories about the lives of ordinary kids could be interesting, funny, and popular.
Cleary was born in 1916. As a child, she had trouble learning to read. Even after she learned to love reading, she felt like the people she was reading about didn't have much to do with her and her life, which were unattractive to her. She wanted to read funny books about children like herself.
When she grew up, Cleary realized there weren't many books about ordinary kids. So she set out to write them at age 30 and tried to get kids hooked on reading since she found they didn't show much interest in books.
Cleary's first book, Henry Huggins, came out in 1950. It tells the story of a boy and the dog that he takes in. Soon Cleary wrote more books about Henry Huggins and the other children in his neighborhood. Ramona Quimby, also known as Ramona the Pest, became Cleary's best known book. The Mouse and the Motorcycle tells the exciting story of a motorcycle-riding mouse and his friendship with a young boy. But that sort of fantasy was unusual for Cleary, who usually focused on real life. In several books, the parents have money trouble or are unhappy with their jobs. Dear Mr, Henshaw tells the story of a boy dealing with his parents’ breaking-off.
Cleary had kept writing for 53 years, creating over 40 books in all. Almost every award she won there was for children's books, including the Newbery Medal and the National Book Award. Though Cleary is no longer with us, her characters and stories will be loved and shared for years to come.
24. How did Cleary find the books she read as a kid
A. Difficult. B. Expensive.
C. Frightening. D. Boring.
25. What does the underlined part "hooked on" in paragraph 3 mean'
A. To dream of. B. To learn from.
C. To deeply enjoy. D. To easily provide.
26. Which of the following is a fantasy
A. Dear Mr. Henshaw. B. The Mouse and the Motorcycle.
C. Henry Huggins. D. Ramona the Pest.
27. What is the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To remember a great writer.
B. To introduce children's books.
C. To encourage kids to read more.
D. To draw more concern for kids.
C
Music brings out the best in people, especially in the morning. If you usually wake up feeling sleepy, turn on your music playlist and play your favorite hits. You'll feel instantly happier and more productive.
It lowers cortisol (皮质醇) levels. You can feed less stressed by listening to your favorite music, according to a study. The stress hormone, cortisol, will lower, and it seems that music speeds up the recovery time after a stress-causing event. So it's only logical that starting your day with a good song can relieve stress caused by external factors, and it will serve as a good start to the day.
Besides, it increases dopamine (多巴胺) levels. Music can increase the production of the dopamine hormone, which is one of the “happy" hormones directly connected to pleasure. It will help to relieve certain negative feelings of anxiety and depression. So if you wake up feeling down, turn on your music playlist.
Listening to music can strengthen your immune system. The sound of the tunes helps the body to produce more antibodies and natural killer cells. These cells can help you attack any viruses you might catch. Basically, your immune system will be more effective at fighting any illnesses.
It stimulates memories. Music can help you remember more, no matter if you like upbeat or slow tunes. Your cognitive（认知的）function will improve once you put your Jingle on, and over time, you'll benefit from a stronger memory, according to a study.
It also promotes your creativity. Before heading to that computer desk or laptop, put your headphones on and listen to some music, especially happy tunes. It seems that this type of Jingle will make you a more creative person, so all those ideas you were waiting for will flood in. And if you start your workday by being more productive and kicking off all the points on your to-do list, it will definitely make you feel good about yourself.
28. What changes will listening to music bring to our body
A. Our stress will be reduced. B. Any viruses will be defeated.
C. We will not suffer from depression. D. The dopamine levels will be decreased.
29. How does the author develop the passage
A. By giving definitions. B. By making analyses.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
30. Which of the following songs can make us most creative

C. Jingle. D. The Moon Over a Fountain.
31. What's the passage mainly about
A. The ways of strengthening our immune system.
B. The benefits of listening to music after waking up.
C. The advantages of improving our cognitive function.
D. The methods of speeding up the stress recovery time.

Do you like Chinese traditional painting and dance They are two important parts of the traditional Chinese art. But what about when they meet each other
This year, a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and became popular.
According to CCTV, this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its sweeping size, rich coloration and the expressive details, reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of infinite (无限的) rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling (涟漪的) water”.
When the dancers moved elegantly(优美地), audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers. “It brings me a pure experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an exhibition. Vast mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still impress people as they did long ago.” Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later. In fact, in recent years, more and more modern shows feature Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome. As for the reason, it is due to people’s great love for traditional culture.
“The younger generations have grown up with a more open mind. They accept Chinese culture and are proud of it.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV Station’s Innovation Center, told China Daily.
32．What’s the writing purpose of Paragraph 1
A．To introduce the topic. B．To show a doubtful attitude.
C．To describe the art world. D．To raise a question.
33．What inspired the poetic dance

34．Why did this poetic dance enjoy welcome
A．Traditional culture is accepted and loved by people.
B．Green mountains and rivers greatly impress people.
C．The poetic dance can be staged in the theaters later.
D．Increasing modern shows feature(以...为特征) Chinese traditional culture.
35．What’s the main idea of the whole passage

Dear Li Lei，
I have got your letter. And I am very glad that you believe in me and ask me for help. I have known you have some difficulty in learning maths because you can not adapt to what your maths teacher teaches and you can’t catch up with others in your class. Don’t worry about it. I think the following may be of help to you.
Firstly, you’d better listen to the teacher carefully in class. You can ask your maths teacher to explain what you can not understand after class. Secondly, confidence is very important. You should be confident and have faith in yourself. Finally, it is a good way for you to communicate with your classmates and get some advice on maths. Just as a saying goes, “Nothing is difficult if you put your heart into it”. I hope you will make progress in it.
Best wishes！
Yours，
Li Hua

Just at that moment many memories came back into my mind. When I was ill,she was always the one taking care of me. When I had trouble with my study, she never lost faith in me and encouraged me to keep going. When I arrived home during the weekend, she always prepared my favorite food. All her kindness came back to me. I should be grateful for all she had done for me. I realized I should go back home immediately and say sorry to my mother.
When arriving home,I saw my mother sitting at the dinner table,worried and tired. She must have been looking for me everywhere I was ready for her anger and shouts. However, before I could apologize, my mother saw me and gently sad. "Oh honey, thank God you're back! Come inside You are probably very hungry I cooked your favorite noodles, come and eat while they are still hot. "No longer able to control myself, I cried in her arms." I'm sorry, mom. Please forgive me. " I whispered to her through tears, extremely ashamed of myself.
