I,阅读理解
A
Back in 2020:One day,I was scheduling appointments in the office;the next,I
broke my leg and had to stay in bed.Over time,I grew sick of video conferencing
and TV marathons,and started searching for something new to fill the long and restless days.
A headline on a website caught my eyes:“This Weaving I,oom(织布机)Saved Me When All
器
My Previous Hobbies Disappeared."This was the universe speaking to me.I immediately bought all
the things recommended-a small loom,a few colors of threads()and a weaving book.
My first weaving looked...not great.I skipped the book and free-styled a pink-and-white cloth
to hang on my apartment door.It started off OK:I strung the loom successfully and figured out how
to slide the threaded needle over and under the backbone of the cloth.
Then,mistake after mistake,I pulled the thread way too tight,making the sides curve in.There
were lots of gaps,where I could see the white threads underneath the colored ones.I couldn't make
the long fringe (at the bottom.In a fit of frustration,I left it a mess.
Humbled by my pride,I opened the weaving book.I learned how to get my edges straight and
的
my ends neat.I figured out how to sew backs onto cloths,stuff them with cotton and make colorful
pillows to display on my sofa.Soon I started making some for my families and friends.I even saved
up money to buy a 4-by-4-foot loom,where I worked on bigger objects.
I was officially taken with it.Actually,I've never been good at anything that requires hand-eye
brain cooperation.But weaving,somehow,feels different.It requires the same steps repeated over
again and encourages you to lose yourself in the process.Every time I pick up my loom,my brain qui-
ets down;as my needle slips between threads,I ground myself.I've never loved a hobby like this.

One January evening in 2008,Rachel Lapierre bought a $4 lottery ticket at the grocery store.
As a nearly full-time emergency-room nurse and part-time volunteer aid worker,after an exhausting
day cutting sugar maples,she needed something to lift her spirits.For years,Lapierre had done hu-
manitarian work overseas for organizations and she longed to be able to one day quit her nursing job
and focus on the volunteer work she found most fulfilling.
49
She swore to herself that if she ever won the lottery,that's what she would do.Lapierre went
home and scratched her ticket,revealing three sunny faces.Not sure what they meant,she took it to
a corner store,where the ticket-checking machine went berserk but didn't reveal the prize.The next
day,the lottery office informed her that she had won a lump sum of $6,75,000 or $1,000 a week
for life.She chose the latter."I know myself,"she says."The lump sum would have melted like snow
in the sun.”
Staying true to her word,Lapierre quit her nursing job and dedicated her life to helping others
through her passion project,Le Book Humanitaire,which has since become a registered charity.Le
Book,as Lapierre,now 62,affectionately calls it,began as a simple list of good deeds she jotted down
in a black-and-white notebook.She had been using it to keep track of what she had done to help
those living in the small communities around her.
To her,the deeds were just small acts of kindness that anyone else might have done.But word
started spreading,her phone began ringing and a Facebook page she created for the project became
an efficient way to field requests from those in need and those who wanted to help.
Le Book Humanitaire now has a team of 80 volunteers.The non-profit provides local emergency
support,homeless and medical out-reach,food delivery for seniors and a community fridge.Its kitch-
en volunteers make about 500 meals a day,with all food donated from local restaurants,hospitals and
schools.
The book itself?It has since been replaced by dozens more,representing millions of deeds.In
2022 alone,the organization carried out nearly 4,50,000 acts of service.
5.What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?
A.Lapierre chose a lump sum of $6,75,000.
B.Lapierre loved her full-time job very much.
C.Lapierre knew the meaning of three sunny faces at first.
D.Lapierre didn't think she would spend a large amount of money wisely.
6.What is Le Book Humanitaire?
A.It is a notebook.
B.It is a Facebook page.
C.It is a non-profit charity.
D.It is run by local communities.
7.Which of the following is true about the project?
A.It conducted 45,000 acts of service in all.
B.It provided everything a community needed.
C.It relied on local donations to provide meals.
D.It was just about small acts of kindness for anyone else.
8.Which words can best describe Lapierre?

D.Determined and tender-hearted.

As a child,Liu Wenwen didn't like the suona,a "loud"traditional Chinese musical instrument,
also an ancestral treasure of her family that was to become her career.
Liu says she felt ashamed.In the 1990s,people admired things that were modern and interna-
tional.The suona was considered out of date.Her father's family has performed with the suona for
seven generations,while the tradition on her mother's side of the family can be traced back to the
early Qing Dynasty.Despite her unwillingness,she followed her parents to play the suona as early as
3 years old.Besides it,Liu has also learned traditional Chinese vocal music and dancing-skills that
have improved her oral muscles and sense of rhyme,helping equip her to be a professional musician.
50
It wasn't until 2008 that she first found suona music beautiful.That was when she entered the
Shanghai Conservatory of Music to learn the instrument more systematically from Liu Ying,a pro-
fessor and top player."The music played by the professor is just amazing,and different from what I
had heard before,"she says.
She loves exchanging ideas about suona playing techniques with her students."It's wonderful to
see the younger generation carrying on this cultural tradition."Liu Wenwen said she is pleased to
see the suona regain popularity among young people,sometimes combined with jazz,opera and other
art forms.This has stopped its decline in the 1990s.Her name,when mentioned on China's social
media platforms,often is followed by a video of her live performance at a concert in Sydney,Austral-
ia.Westerners were amazed by the loud,unfamiliar instrument and its colorful music."I felt my hard
work had paid off.I trained for over 20 years,probably just to win cheers and applause for traditional
Chinese music on the international stage."
9.What urged Liu Wenwen to learn to play the suona?
A.Family tradition.
B.Personal interest.
C.Her professor.
D.Her ambition.
10.Apart from daily training,what did Liu do to be a professional musician?
A.Follow her parents to play the suona.
B.Learn music history at an early age.
C.Play the suona with her parents on the stage.
D.Better her oral muscles and sense of rhyme.
11.How did Liu first find suona music beautiful?
A.By learning from the famous professor Liu.
B.By visiting Shanghai Conservatory of Music.
C.By performing the suona music in Sydney.
D.By hearing her family playing the suona.
12.What can we learn from Liu's last words in the last paragraph?
A.She learned the value of her performance.
B.She earned a fortune after 20 years'training.
C.She worked hard and became an international professor.
D.She surprised many westerners with a video of her performance.
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
People don't just wake up one day and magically become independent.I The following
skills can help you do that.
Learn more about yourself.If you're filled with the idea of what other people want,you'll
never gain true independence.2 However,when you value the thoughts and feelings of other
people over your own,you weaken your own authority.If you really want to be more independent.
it's necessary to get to know your personality,likes and dislikes,needs and goals.
O Spend time with yourself.Having time alone to build independence seems obvious.3
Many people struggle to eat alone at a restaurant,go shopping by themselves,or even be at home
without another person there.However.part of learning how to become more independent is develo-
ping the ability to not only be alone,but to enjoy time with yourself.
Advocate for yourself.If you constantly bend to what other people expect of you,it will be
difficult to feel truly independent.However,you don't need to be rude in order to advocate for your-
self.4 Standing up for yourself shows that you can have your own back in difficult situations in-
stead of having to rely on someone else.
51
5 Of course,it's always important to keep supportive people in your life that you can re-
ly on.However,it's unrealistic to think that they'll always be there for you in the specific way that
you need them to be at the exact time.Building your ability to be there for yourself can help you
grow your independence since you won't need to constantly rely on others for support.
A.Be your own support system.
B.Acknowledge your own ability.
C.However,it is easier said than done.
D.It can be done in a calm yet firm way.
E.It's not a bad quality to consider the opinions of others.
F.Independence is a quality which takes practice to build.
G.Challenge yourself to think about what you like about yourself.
