Jenny was a shy girl. She was afraid to speak in front of the class. In English class, when the teacher asked questions, she always looked down, hoping not to be called on.

One day, her English teacher, Ms. Lee, announced a speech competition. Every student needed to give a two-minute speech in English. Jenny felt very nervous. She didn’t know what to talk about.

That evening, she talked to her mother. “Mom, I’m terrible at speaking English. I will surely fail,” Jenny said sadly. Her mother smiled and said, “Dear, everyone feels nervous at first. Why not talk about something you love? You love painting. Talk about that.”

Jenny thought it was a good idea. She spent the whole week preparing. She wrote her speech, practiced in front of the mirror, and even recorded herself to improve her pronunciation.

The day of the competition arrived. When it was Jenny’s turn, her heart was beating fast. She took a deep breath, walked to the front, and began. At first, her voice was soft. But as she talked about her paintings and the stories behind them, she forgot her nervousness. She became more confident.

When she finished, the whole class clapped loudly. Ms. Lee said, “Well done, Jenny! That was a wonderful speech about your passion.”

Jenny didn’t win first prize, but she was proud of herself. She learned that courage is not the absence of fear, but doing what you need to do even when you are afraid. From that day on, she volunteered to answer questions more often in class.

56. What was Jenny’s problem at the beginning of the story?

A. She was poor at painting. B. She was shy to speak in public.

A. To give up the competition. B. To talk about something she loved.

C. To ask the teacher for help. D. To practice with her classmates.

58. How did Jenny prepare for the speech?

A. She asked Ms. Lee to write it for her. B. She practiced many times alone.

B. She felt relaxed from the beginning to the end.

C. She felt so afraid that she almost stopped.

D. She felt bored while talking.

Have you ever heard of “plogging”? It is a new sport that started in Sweden. The name comes from the Swedish words “plocka upp” (which means “pick up”) and “jogging” (running slowly). So, plogging means picking up rubbish while jogging.

Plogging is good for both health and the environment. When you plog, you don’t just run. You often stop, bend down (弯腰), pick up litter, and then run again. These extra movements make it a better workout than just jogging. It can burn more calories (卡路里).

Erik Ahlström started the plogging movement in Stockholm. He was tired of seeing rubbish on his way to work. He thought, “Why not do something about it while exercising?” He began picking up trash during his runs and encouraged others to join him. Soon, the idea spread through social media and became popular around the world.

Now, many people go plogging in parks, on beaches, or along streets. They usually wear gloves and carry a bag for the rubbish. Some do it alone, and some join plogging groups. It’s a simple way to make our communities cleaner and greener.

Plogging is more than just exercise. It also helps people become more environmentally friendly. When people see ploggers, they might think twice before littering. It teaches us that everyone can do a little to help our planet.

So, next time you go for a run, why not take a bag and a pair of gloves with you? You can enjoy your run and do something good for the Earth at the same time.

61. What is “plogging”?

A. A new Swedish game. B. Picking up rubbish while jogging.

C. A kind of fast running. D. A competition of picking up things.

62. Why is plogging a better workout than just jogging?

A. Because you run faster. B. Because you run longer distances.

C. Because you have extra movements. D. Because you do it with friends.

63. Who started the plogging movement?

A. A Swedish runner. B. A famous environmentalist.

C. Erik Ahlström. D. A health magazine.

64. What do people usually take when they go plogging?

A. Music players and water. B. Gloves and bags.

C. Cameras and phones. D. Maps and hats.

65. What is one of the benefits of plogging mentioned in the passage?

A. It helps people make more friends. B. It makes people run faster.

C. It teaches people to protect the environment. D. It helps people lose weight quickly.

第二节：任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

Many people think that homework is boring and tiring. But some schools in the US are trying to make homework more interesting and useful. They are giving students “choice homework”.

Instead of the same worksheets (练习题) for everyone, students can choose from different activities. For example, after learning about plants in science class, students might have these choices:

• Write a report about a plant.

• Grow a plant at home and take photos of its growth.

• Make a poster about how plants help us.

• Interview a gardener and share what you learn.

Teachers say choice homework lets students learn in ways that match their interests and learning styles. Some students like writing, while others prefer hands-on activities (实践活动). This way, homework is not a “one-size-fits-all” task.

Students seem to like it. They feel they have more control over their learning. They are more willing to do homework because they can choose something they enjoy. Parents also think it’s a good idea because it makes homework time less stressful.

However, some people worry. They think it might be more work for teachers to prepare. Also, it might be harder to grade different kinds of work fairly.

What do you think of choice homework?

91. What is “choice homework”?

92. What can students do after learning about plants according to the example? (List one activity)

93. Why do teachers like choice homework?

94. How do students feel about choice homework?

95. What is one worry some people have about choice homework?

Dear Mike,
I'm glad to hear that you are interested in my school life. Now let me tell you about a typical day of mine.
My school starts at 8:00 a.m. We usually have four lessons in the morning, like Chinese, math and English. We have a break between lessons to relax. At noon, I have lunch at the school dining hall with my classmates. The food is delicious. After lunch, we have about an hour to rest or do some reading.
In the afternoon, we have two more lessons, such as history or science. School finishes at around 4:30 p.m. After that, I often take part in after-school activities. I'm in the basketball club, so I practice with my friends twice a week. Sometimes I stay in the library to do my homework.
I think my school life is busy but colorful. I enjoy learning new things and spending time with my friends.
Yours,
Li Hua
