1.  短文语境提示填空

Traveling often brings us pleasure. But last summer, I had a bad travel experience. I visited Mount Wuyi with my parents. Mount Wuyi is famous  green forests, clear water and nice tea. Every year, thousands of people go travelling there on . 

I  three train tickets online. The train should start at 8: 00, but it was late. We had to wait. When we finally got on the train, it was 9: 00. What's worse, there was something wrong with the air conditioner. I couldn't stand the high temperature and the  smell in the carriage (车厢) . As soon as the train arrived, I ran out . 

A  bus took us to the foot of the mountain. We rent three to ride on. It was too hot. We had to keep drinking along the way. We were tasting delicious Wuyi Tea when it rained suddenly.  in the rain became more difficult. I fell down  I wasn't hurt. I felt too tired to ride on. After overcoming (克服) all kinds of difficulties, we finally reached the top of the mountain. 

What  bad trip! Bad weather, bad vehicle and bad luck.

1. (2024七下·广州月考) 阅读理解

Who is your hero? Why do you like the person? Cool looks? Money? A lot of talent (才华)?

Shanghai teenagers say they look for more than that. Most of them say their heroes are hard-working and brave.

NBA star Yao Ming was the No.1 Chinese hero with 48 per cent of all votes (投票). Zheng Hua, a 13-year-old boy from Shanghai, told us that it was hard for him to go all the way to the NBA．He's a big star. Most of us think he is still kind and loves others after he becomes a famous star. He also helps disabled (残疾的) children.

Jay Zhou from Taiwan is the teen's most favorite star. Liu Yan from a high school of Shanghai is one of Jay's big fans. In her sight, Jay is not just a pop star. "Jay's so kind to his mother and grandma. He takes good care of them," said Liu Yan.

Wang Hao, from a high school of Guangdong, said he liked Zhou Enlai. "He's great. He loved his people. He saw people as his own children. And he never thought he was different from others."

Shanghai students also like US businessman Bill Gates. More than half consider him as their hero. One teenager from Beijing who likes Gates said, "Bill was not born rich. He worked hard. And he doesn't like to tell everyone how rich he is. He also has courage (勇气). He left school to start his own business."
