Asking for the help of the President (总统) of the United States was no casual matter, especially for a seventeen-year-old girl. “Yes, sir,” she replied, her dark eyes meeting his. “I wouldn’t have dared to ask you, but my teacher, Mr Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner.” President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors — they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust (半身像)?” Before Vinnie could say yes, the President hurried on, a shade of apology in his voice. “Of course — I shouldn’t have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size.” Vinnie’s face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay (粘土) figure would not exhaust my strength — and that is what I intend to do!” The President’s eyes, brightened at her show of spirit. “Sorry, madam, I have underestimated you as I didn’t know your background.” But his smile faded as he rubbed his beard with bony fingers, in thought. “Miss Ream,” he sighed, “I’d like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself.” Vinnie looked around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.” The President seemed to consider her idea seriously. He got up and shook Vinnie’s hand warmly, “I’ve heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately, but you will hear from me soon.” The very next day, Vinnie received an invitation from the President. 1. How did President Lincoln first respond (回复) to Vinnie’s request (请求)? A. Delighted. B. Excited. C. Regretful. D. Doubtful. 2. What gave Vinnie confidence to make her request of President Lincoln? A. Her enthusiastic personality. B. Mr Mills’s encouraging words. C. President Lincoln’s gentle voice. D. Her interest in a challenging job. 3. Vinnie confirmed her ability to make a full-length statue by highlighting_______. A. her experience from other projects B. her innocent (天真的) childhood in the country C. the heavy labor (劳动) she had done before D. the skill she picked up in Wisconsin 4. Vinnie wanted to choose the corner near the windows to_______. A. achieve effects of natural lighting B. keep all her tools within easy reach C. observe the President at a right angle (角度) D. avoid disturbing (打扰) the President’s work B Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend. There’s a welcome familiarity - but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both, and thus the relationship. But books don’t change, people do. And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative. The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register. It’s true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings. But with reading, it’s all about the present. It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now, because reading is a give and take between author and reader. Each has to pull their own weight. There are three books I reread annually .The first, which I take to reading every spring is Emest Hemningway’s A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris. The language is almost intoxicating (令人陶醉的)，an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time. Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble (随笔) about everything and nothing. The third book is Julio Cortazar’s Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry. And because Cortazar. While I tend to buy a lot of books, these three were given to me as gifs, which might add to the meaning I attach to them. But I imagine that, while money is indeed wonderful and necessary, rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them. The best books are the ones that open further as time passes. But remember, it’s you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends. 5. Why does the author like rereading? A. It evaluates the writer-reader relationship. B. It’s a window to a whole new world. C. It’s a substitute for drinking with a friend. D. It extends the understanding of oneself. 6. What do we know about the book A Moveable Feast? A. It’s a brief account of a trip. B. It’s about Hemingway’s life as a young man. C. It’s a record of a historic event. D. It’s about Hemingway’s friends in Paris. 7. What does the underlined word ＂currency＂ in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Debt B. Reward. C. Allowance. D. Face value. 8. What can we infer about the author from the text? A. He loves poetry. B. He’s an editor. C. He’s very ambitious. D. He teaches reading. 四、 完形填空(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Adam Wolfers believes that his son’s autism (自闭症) has a positive impact on his hobby of photography. 10-­year­-old Morgan has always possessed a ____1____ eye for capturing the world around him through his camera.

(当总统表示怀疑时，他低沉、温柔的声音帮助这个紧张的女孩平静下来。)”和第四段中“President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors — they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust (半身像)?” (林肯总统笑了。“画家、雕塑家——他们都试图把这张普通的脸画得最好，但恐怕希望不大。你有什么想法，雷姆小姐?半身像?”)”可知，对于维尼给他塑像的请求，林肯总统最初表示怀疑，因为已经有很多人作过类似的尝试，并不成功。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中维尼的话“I wouldn’t have dared to ask you, but my teacher, Mr Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner. (我本来不敢问你，但我的老师米尔斯先生说我准备好了。我打算以一种令人钦佩的方式来完成它。)”可知，是米尔斯先生鼓励的话语让维尼有信心向林肯总统提出请求。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中“Vinnie’s face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay (粘土) figure would not exhaust my strength — and that is what I intend to do!” (维尼的脸变红了。她意识到自己身材娇小，看起来像个孩子。“小并不意味着弱，先生。”她为自己辩解。“我出生在威斯康辛州。我赶过马队，提过水。制作一个完整的泥人不会耗尽我的力量——这就是我打算做的!”)”可知，维尼通过强调她之前所做的繁重劳动，证明了她制作全身雕像的能力。故选C项。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第八段中林肯的话“How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself. (我现在怎么可能有时间给雕塑摆造型呢?我几乎没有自己的时间。)”和倒数第三段“Vinnie looked around and noted the size of his office.“I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows.“If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.” (维尼环顾四周，注意到他办公室的大小。“我工作很快，”她说。她指着窗户附近的角落，声音柔和而自信。“如果我把我的粘土带到这里，每天下午工作三个小时，我可以在你坐在办公桌前的时候完成大部分项目。”)”可知，维尼想选一个靠窗户的角落是为了避免打扰林肯总统的工作。故选D项。 【答案】5. D 6. B 7. B 8. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了重新阅读的意义和益处并向读者介绍了作者每年重读的三本书。作者鼓励读者去重新阅读书籍。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句“But books don’t change, people do. And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.(但是书没变，人变了。那就是使重新阅读行为如此丰富和富于变化之处)”和第二段“The beauty of rereading lies in that our bond with the work is based on our present register. It is true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings.(重新阅读的美妙之处在于我们与作品的联系是基于我们现在的心理状态。真的，我年纪越大，就越觉得时光飞逝。)”可推知，作者喜欢重新阅读是因为重新阅读可以扩展对自己的理解。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris.”及“an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time”可知，这本书出版于1964年，这是他关于20世纪20年代在巴黎的经典回忆录，是他老年时对那些野心勃勃却更简单的日子的回顾。由此可判断出A Movable Feast是关于海明威年轻时的生活。故选B项。 【7题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中“while money is indeed wonderful and necessary,(虽然金钱确实是美妙而必要的)”可知，前后句为转折关系，根据上下文的语境可推知，“rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them.”意为“但是但重新阅读作品是读者能支付给他们的最高回报”，由此判断出划线词的意思是“回报”。故选B项。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The third book is Julio Cortázar’s Save Twilight: selected poems, because poetry.(第三本书是胡里奥·科塔扎的《拯救暮光之城: 诗歌精选》，因为诗歌)”可知，作者是由于喜欢诗歌而喜欢这本书。故选A项。 4、 完形填空 【答案】1.

But 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了露西·布莱克成为了世界上最年轻的环游世界各国的人。 【1题详解】 考查代词。句意：23岁时，她走遍了所有的国家，努力挑战自己，挑战她认为女性旅行者可能达到的极限。动词challenge后缺宾语，和主语指的是同一个人，意为“挑战她自己”，所以用反身代词 。故填herself。 【2题详解】 考查连词。句意：23岁时，她走遍了所有的国家，努力挑战自己，挑战她认为女性旅行者可能达到的极限。空处引导宾语从句， 从句中缺少主语，指物，所以用连接代词what引导。故填 what。 【3题详解】 考查副词。句意：露西主要使用飞机、船只和火车来四处走动。修饰 uesd 这一动词应用副词形式。故填 primarily。 【4题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这并不是一帆风顺的，露西遇到了许多困难，包括安排进入一些国家的签证。介词including后接动名词形式。故填 arranging。 【5题详解】 考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：但她旅途中难忘的经历压倒了挑战。本句陈述过去事情，用一般过去时。主语challenges与outweigh之间为被动关系，所以用被动语态，注意主谓一致。故填were outweighed。 【6题详解】 考查名词。句意：她说：“独自旅行会带来很多不可思议的经历，因为与其和一大群人在一起旅行，你更愿意与当地人建立联系。”local 一词有名词意义，表示“当地人”，也有形容词性，这里作名词讲，需要用复数，the locals 指当地的人们。故填 locals。 【7题详解】 考查冠词。句意：露西很高兴能遇到各种各样的人，体验不同的文化。a variety of为固定搭配， 表示各种各样的。故填 a。 【8题详解】 考查形容词。句意：但她说，最宝贵的经验是发现一种新的独立意识。修饰名词应用形容词。故填 valuable。 【9题详解】 考查介词。句意：对露西来说，没有什么比旅行更好的了，她说这是她生活中最喜欢的部分。describe as为固定搭配，意为“把……描述为”。故填 as。 【10题详解】 考查连词。句意：但如果我说我不喜欢在过去一年里花时间从过去三年对我身体的磨损中恢复过来，那就是在撒谎。该句和前句存在转折关系，所以用转折连词。故填 But。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
