Ways to Reduce Stress
Recently a survey was carried out about ways to reduce stress. Surprisingly, approximately 4/5 of the respondents regarded watching videos as their preferred way to ease stress, closely followed by listening to music. In contrast, only a small percent of individuals chose sports or chatting with others as means of reducing their psychological burden.
While videos and music offer amusement and fascination, excessive indulgence can intensify our dependence on smartphones, thus distracting our attention from our studies and daily lives. In fact, alternative approaches, such as sports and social interaction, can offer greater benefits. Not only does participating in sports promote physical well-being, but communicating with our friends and parents can also provide comfort.
Therefore, I suggest that senior three students adopt a combination of stress-relief methods, prioritizing those that enhance both our physical and mental health. Thank you for listening!石嘴山三中2023-2024学年第一学期高三年级

A wolf in the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve, Northwest China’s Qinghai Province, has gained weight as a result of regular feeding by visitors in vehicles, according to a video recorded by a netizen. The fat wolf swings its tail at passing vehicles and even rolls on its back to appeal for food in the video. The video rapidly spread, causing an Internet debate.
In July this year, a woman shared a video of her encounter with a wolf while traveling through HohXil. She got out of her car to give the hungry wolf some beef jerky, noting how thin the animal seemed. She expressed her sympathy for it and did not hesitate to feed it. In other videos posted by netizens, the wolf can be seen wandering near cars on the roadside, and even lying in front of one of them. The new video claims the wolf in Hoh Xil has been fed by humans for a long time.
It caused a heated discussion among netizens, with some finding the wolf very cute and funny, and joking that it no longer wanted to work hard. But others expressed concern that such feeding would disrupt the natural order, and have a negative impact on the wolf and its ecosystem.
Dai Qiang, a researcher at the Chengdu Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who has been studying wild animals such as pandas and wolves for a long time, disagrees with the practice of feeding wild wolves. He believes that such behavior, may also cause the animals to become dependent, and have adverse (不利的) results. Dai says that such behavior may cause risks to both human beings and wild animals.
“Wild animals, especially injured ones, may carry bacteria. Wolves are fierce animals after all, and it is hard to know whether they are aggressive or not, so it is better to keep a safe distance,” says Dai. “On the other hand, unless the species is endangered, artificial intervention (人为干预) is not recommended,” he adds.
What can we say about the wolf in Hoh Xil
It turned to a woman for help. B. It lost weight in the nature reserve.
It wandered regularly near visitors. D. It has been given food by people.
25. What does the underlined word “disrupt” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Protect. B. Maintain. C. Upset. D. Adjust.
26. What will probably happen if wild animals are fed according to Dai
A. They may hurt people. B. They may gain weight.
C. They may leave reserves. D. They may become extinct.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To inform people of wolves’ habits.
B. To call on people to protect wolves.
C. To warn people of risks in feeding wolves.
D. To entertain readers with a wolf story.
C
A career in comics（漫画） is a dream for many talented, creative artists. It’s an opportunity to express one’s imagination through powerful stories. Traditionally, it was difficult, and sometimes expensive, to make it in the comic world. However, webtoons, comic platforms for viewing on the web and mobile devices, are changing the situation for independent artists. Artists can gain a following on webtoons platforms without having to depend on large publishing agents. It’s a fantastic opportunity for comic book lovers to find exciting new stories.
WEBTOON is the largest and most well-known webtoons platform, and it offers creators the chance to gain deals with famous agents and publishers. Some creators who got their start on WEBTOON have seen their stories adapted for TV series or movies. American Netflix has published two live-action adaptations of webtoons. WEBTOON has also worked with brand-name comics. For example, DC Comics, one of America’s oldest and largest comic book producers, produced a comic book series Batman: Wayne Family Adventures with WEBTOON. The popular DC series got more than 76 million views on WEBTOON.
In addition to all that, webtoons have helped independent artists and writers make it in the comic world. Azumi was a webtoons follower, who even won a webtoons competition, but he had no means to continue comic book writing full-time. In 2021, a WEBTOON producer found his great work and employed him to write. This opportunity allowed Azumi to give up his job and focus on his art. Azumi explains, “Many groups and stories that have not been shown in traditional publishing can have a voice and space on WEBTOON.”
“ WEBTOON creators are some of the most talented and creative people the history of comics. In a time when comics have never been more popular, we’re proud of the growing Creator Economy and the ecosystem we’ve built to celebrate and support WEBTOON creators,” said CEO, Ken Kim.
What can we learn about webtoons from the first paragraph
A. They push artists to attract mobile viewers.
B. They enable artists to show their works easily.
C. They will take the place of traditional publishing.
D. They encourage users to recommend creative artists.
29. What does the author suggest by mentioning Netflix and DC Comics in Paragraph 2
A. WEBTOON is competing with big agents.
B. Creators are full of curiosity about adapted works.
C. WEBTOON achieves development through partnerships.
D. Creators hope to publish their works on different platforms.
30. What enabled Azumi to work as a comic book writer
A. His familiarity with webtoons.
B. WEBTOON’s recognition of his talent.
C. His excellent performance in a competition.
D. WEBTOON’s close contact with its followers.
31. Which word best describes Ken Kim’s attitude to WEBTOON’s work
A. Surprised B. Worried C. Unclear D. Satisfied
D
Storytelling is an ancient art form that has been used to hand down legends, tales and factual stories. Perhaps the first thing that springs to mind when you think of storytelling is the fantasy land that took shape in your mind while Mom or Dad told you stories about princes, castles and monsters, with a unique voice for each character.
Storytelling does not just take place at bedtime or round a campfire, however. It can take some other forms, either via the books we read or the films we watch. But they usually have some elements in common: rather than a list of dry facts, stories have plots and they introduce characters. We respond to stories, particularly when there is emotional detail.
And unlike what we suppose, storytelling is not just a form of entertainment, but a form of learning as well. Long before reading and writing became widely spread and available, oral storytelling had already been a form that the wisdom and knowledge of the people were passed down from elders to children. A good story engages our curiosity, emotions and imagination.
Storytelling helps with learning also because stories are easy to remember. Research has found that learning obtained from a well-told story is remembered more accurately, and for far longer, than from facts and figures.
And above all, stories have a transformative power to allow us to see the world in a different way than we do if we just encounter it on our own. Stories are an entry point to understanding a different experience of the world.
This aspect of storytelling-presenting a different perspective of the world—is important when it comes to connecting with each other. It gives us an opportunity to learn from another person’s experience and it can shape, strengthen or challenge our opinions and values. So, when someone tells us their own personal story, we catch a glimpse of a view of the world that may be slightly or significantly different from our own. When we see the world as they see it, or walk in their shoes, the experience can inspire empathy (共情；同理心) with them.
What occurs to us the moment we think of “storytelling”
A child's imaginary world. B. Voices of Mom or Dad.
C. An ancient art form. D. Factual stories.
33. Why does storytelling work better than mere statement of facts in promoting learning
A. It carries more wisdom and knowledge.
B. It is more widely available to young learners.
C. It satisfies our imagination and releases our emotions.
D. It makes what is learned more precise and longer lasting.
34. How can other people’s personal stories probably benefit us
A. By offering us more opportunities to know people.
B. By helping us stay connected with the contemporary world.
C. By allowing us to understand the world the way they see it.
D. By enabling us to tell reality from imagination.
35. What makes the best title for the passage
A. The History of Storytelling B. The Power of Storytelling
C. The Forms of Storytelling D. The Art of Storytelling

When working in the garden, a gardener has to deal with dirt, sticks, and rocks. This could cause injuries like cuts. Gardening gloves are used to protect your hands from such gardening dangers. And they can keep your hands clean. 36
Commonly, gardening gloves are made of cotton. Cotton is light and cheap to make and protects the hands from dirt. However, cotton gloves do not provide much protection from sharp objects. They wear out easily. 37 And that moisture (潮气) can make the gardener’s hands cold on a cold day.
To deal with the shortcomings of cotton gloves, gardeners can turn to other kinds of gardening gloves. Gloves made of both cotton and leather can be a good choice. 38 As a result, they don’t have to be replaced often. Their weakness is that they still get wet and do not provide much protection from sharp objects.
Gloves completely made of leather wear much better. They are usually used for heavy garden and yard work. 39 If gardeners want to keep moisture away from their hands, they can turn to the gloves specially designed for such a purpose.
40 The gloves of the right size will protect the gardener’s hands from many different kinds of dangers and allow them to catch things. Wearing gloves that are too big may prevent the gardener from holding on to tools. Gloves that are too small can cause skin injuries.
A. They wear better than cotton gardening gloves.
B. In addition, they get heavy when they are wet.
C. Some gloves are designed for light garden work.
D. It is advised that you clean your gloves less often.
E. But they tend to be uncomfortable in hot conditions.
F. They should fit properly whatever gardening gloves people use.
G. The type of gardening gloves available depends on the type of gardening.
