备战2025年高考英语名校模拟真题速递(全国卷专用) 第一期 专题07 阅读理解之记叙文(高考真题+名校模拟) （2023·全国甲卷·高考真题） Terri Bolton is a dab hand when it comes to DIY (do-it-yourself). Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture, she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself. She credits these skills to her late grandfather and builder Derek Lloyd. From the age of six, Terri, now 26, accompanied Derek to work during her school holidays. A day’s work was rewarded with £5 in pocket money. She says: “I’m sure I wasn’t much of a help to start with, painting the rooms and putting down the flooring throughout the house. It took weeks and it was backbreaking work, but I know he was proud of my skills.” Terri, who now rents a house with friends in Wandsworth, South West London, says DIY also saves her from losing any deposit when a tenancy (租期) comes to an end. She adds: “I’ve moved house many times and I always like to personalise my room and put up pictures, so, it’s been useful to know how to cover up holes and repaint a room to avoid any charges when I’ve moved out.” With millions of people likely to take on DIY projects over that coming weeks, new research shows that more than half of people are planning to make the most of the long, warm summer days to get jobs done. The average spend per project will be around £823. Two thirds of people aim to improve their comfort while at home. Two fifths wish to increase the value of their house. Though DIY has traditionally been seen as male hobby, the research shows it is women now leading the charge. 1．Which is closest in meaning to “a dab hand” in paragraph 1? A．An artist. B．A winner. C．A specialist. D．A pioneer. 2．Why did Terri’s grandfather give her £5 a day? A．For a birthday gift. B．As a treat for her work. C．To support her DIY projects. D．To encourage her to take up a hobby. 3．How did Terri avoid losing the deposit on the house she rented? A．By making it look like before. B．By furnishing it herself. C．By splitting the rent with a roommate. D．By cancelling the rental agreement. 4．What trend in DIY does the research show? A．It is becoming more costly. B．It is getting more time-consuming. C．It is turning into a seasonal industry. D．It is gaining popularity among females. （2023·全国乙卷·高考真题）Living in Iowa and trying to become a photographer specializing in landscape (风景) can be quite a challenge, mainly because the corn state lacks geographical variation. Although landscapes in the Midwest tend to be quite similar, either farm fields or highways, sometimes I find distinctive character in the hills or lakes. To make some of my landscape shots, I have traveled up to four hours away to shoot within a 10-minute time frame. I tend to travel with a few of my friends to state parks or to the countryside to go on adventures and take photos along the way. Being at the right place at the right time is decisive in any style of photography. I often leave early to seek the right destinations so I can set up early to avoid missing the moment I am attempting to photograph. I have missed plenty of beautiful sunsets/sunrises due to being on the spot only five minutes before the best moment. One time my friends and I drove three hours to Devil’s Lake, Wisconsin, to climb the purple quartz (石英) rock around the lake. After we found a crazy-looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to photograph the scene at sunset. The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background. We managed to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset. However, we did not mark the route (路线) so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely. Once we found the place, it was stressful getting lights and cameras set up in the limited time. Still, looking back on the photos, they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely. 5．How does the author deal with the challenge as a landscape photographer in the Midwest? A．By teaming up with other photographers. B．By shooting in the countryside or state parks. C．By studying the geographical conditions. D．By creating settings in the corn fields. 6．What is the key to successful landscape photography according to the author? A．Proper time management. B．Good shooting techniques. C．Adventurous spirit. D．Distinctive styles. 7．What can we infer from the author’s trip with friends to Devil’s Lake? A．They went crazy with the purple quartz rock. B．They felt stressed while waiting for the sunset. C．They reached the shooting spot later than expected. D．They had problems with their equipment. 8．How does the author find his photos taken at Devil’s Lake? A．Amusing. B．Satisfying. C．Encouraging. D．Comforting. （2022·全国甲卷·高考真题）As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins (企鹅) longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget. Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career (职业) as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge. After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile.

And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.” In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she’d never met before, to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has,” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater.” The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni. 9．Which of the following best explains “take the plunge” underlined in paragraph 2?

Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery. Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don’t worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater. When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up. When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail—thin teenager, in a baggy white T—shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.” “Yeah,” I said. “Safe.” 13．What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London? A．He felt disappointed. B．He gave up his hobby. C．He liked the weather there.

You can move your ugly car up now!” The silver-haired driver behind me in a fancy truck rudely yelled at me. Without much thought, I yelled back at the man, “What? Are you in a rush or something? ” I was waiting in line at the drive-through to order our breakfast on a Sunday morning. There were only 12 inches or so between me and the car in front of me. There were also three additional cars in front of that one. We were getting nowhere fast. What was he hoping to gain by yelling at me? I wanted to let my own anger go after this ridiculous exchange. But the more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I was angry that he yelled at a mother in front of two kids. My daughter and my son were both confused and saddened by what they had just witnessed. We were on our way to a soccer tournament, and we had a bonus day free from school and work. Probably, there was nothing in the world to be upset about. Then this man let his anger out. I told my kids I was so mad that I had to roll my window up so that I wouldn’t keep yelling at this guy. Then, I stopped and looked back. I had moved up the 12 or so inches at his “suggestion”, while he hadn’t moved an inch. Suddenly, I felt sympathy for him. He must have been suffering in some way. As my kids and I slowly made our way to the pick-up window to pay for our order, I had an idea. “I heard how rude that man was to you, and I wanted to apologize to you for having to put up with that. He isn’t worth paying for,” the cashier said to me. “My kids support me in doing that,” I answered the cashier, adding that hate cannot drive out hate. 17．Why was the driver angry with the author?

But he is also an award-winning travel writer whose books include The Longest Way Home (2012) and Walking With Sam (2021). In the new book, he looks back on an epic adventure, where he walked 500 miles across Spain’s Camino de Santiago with his 19-year-old son, Sam. McCarthy had hoped the trip would be a way to re-examine their evolving relationship, as Sam was just stepping into his own manhood. “I wanted to get to know my son. Not just in the parent-child, dominant-submissive or unruly roles, but as adults, as equals, as peers (同龄人),” he said. “The Camino gave me the greatest luxury you have with adult children — which is time.” For McCarthy it was a chance to spend time with Sam, and perhaps avoid repeating the history he had with his own father. “My relationship with my dad ended pretty much when I left home at 17 years old, and I didn’t want that happen with my kids,” MeCarthy said. The book’s structure follows the path of the Camino, with a chapter per day over the course. It creates a pleasant rhythm of the trail. It also establishes a gradual sense of community and friendship among the other walkers they encounter, and paints a clear picture of McCarthy as somebody extremely in touch with his feelings. Sometimes physical togetherness and shared experiences are the most you can ask for in a relationship, and there are lovely examples of both here. In one scene McCarthy realizes Sam is suffering from a sugar crash, and offers him a protein bar he’s been saving for just such a moment. “I reach out and rub his shoulder,” McCarthy writes.“He nods softly, gratefully. We sit together as thousands upon thousands of dandelion puffs (蒲公英) float in the air like dancing diamonds.” Walking with Sam captures this encouraging and hopeful expedition as the pair walk across the country and towards one another. 21．What do we know about Walking With Sam according to paragraph 1? A．A fantasy novel. B．A travel memoir. C．A prize-winning diary entry. D．An era-defining movie. 22．Why did McCarthy start the adventure? A．To honor his father. B．To help his son fly the nest. C．To bond with his son. D．To seek for writing inspiration. 23．McCarthy develops Walking with Sam by ______. A．comparison and contrast B．cause and effect C．facts and opinions D．sequence of events 24．What does the author think of Walking With Sam? A．Plain but functional. B．Inspiring and touching. C．Brief but informative. D．Humorous and straightforward. （2024·河南郑州·三模）My husband made a little two-story house that mirrored our own in color and design for our Little Free Library, while I carefully selected books from our shelves. The idea struck us immediately-instead of loading boxes into the car for yet another used book sale, we could simply walk them to the roadside. Fifteen or so years later, it’s safe to say that thousands of books, as well as the occasional DVDs, CDs and jigsaw puzzles have been shared through our little library. Located on a busy street just a few blocks from a subway station, our little library sees dozens, perhaps hundreds, of passers-by each day. Many of those who use our library do not hesitate to share their love of this neighborhood resource. One gentleman regularly stops by to pick up books for a nearby retirement home. At other times, we have received cards and gifts, including chocolates and even a personalized sketch (素描) from a local artist. Like the people who use our library, the books that come and go reflect the broad diversity of our city. Arabic, French and Russian books are the large part among the dominant English-language books. I have even collected favorite books of mine in languages I don’t understand, simply for the joy of adding another edition to my collection. Surprisingly, our library hasn’t solved our book storage problem-if anything, we now have more books than ever before. I have heard some complaints that Little Free Libraries do not always serve the purpose of building community and may compete with our public libraries and independent bookstores. This has not been our experience. We continue to buy more books than we need and we are fiercely loyal users of the public system. Our Little Free Library has enhanced our love of reading and has connected us to a community of book lovers in the heart of our busy neighborhood. 25．Why did the author and her husband build the Little Free Library? A．To prepare for used book sales. B．To make friends with book lovers. C．To deal with their unwanted books. D．To make use of community resources. 26．What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A．People’s care for the elderly. B．The friendship between library users. C．People’s love for the Little Free Library. D．The exploration of the community resources. 27．What does the Little Free Library reflect about the neighborhood? A．Its cultural diversity. B．Its storage problems. C．Readers’ preferences. D．People’s reading habits. 28．How has the Little Free Library impacted the community? A．It has strengthened neighborhood connections. B．It has become a meeting place for local artists. C．It has weakened public libraries to some degree. D．It has promoted the rise of independent bookstores. （2024·江西·一模）One of China’s first female sea-rescue pilots looks back in pride at 300-plus missions and promises to save more lives. When the perfect storm brews(酝酿) over the boundless sea and lives are in danger, a crew of highly trained professionals embarks on a mission impossible to search for and rescue survivors from the rough waters. Wan Qiuwen is one of them. And, she’s a woman. The 36-year-old from Shanghai has broken the glass ceiling to become one of China’s first two female rescue helicopter pilots who respond to search and rescue missions involving cargo ship snags(货船遇险), vessel accidents, medical emergencies and special marine operations. The demanding nature of the profession had always favored male candidates until the rules were changed for the first and only time. She says, “Rescue at sea can be both challenging and terrifying. If you don’t think and act fast, people may die.” On Aug 20,2020, an oil tanker ferrying 3,000 metric tons of gasoline collided with a cargo ship loaded with sand and gravel about 1.5 nautical miles (2,778 meters) southeast of the Yangtze River estuary, sparking a fire on the deck of the oil tanker and causing the latter to sink. Wan was among the first respondents. She flew to the site from Gaodong helicopter airport, which is the country’s first-of-its-kind marine rescue launchpad(发射台). “The tanker was still burning and there was a thick envelope of smoke, reducing visibility to near zero.” she recalls. And yet, with her sea wisdom, Wan spotted a survivor and executed a successful rescue operation. She hovered above the troubled waters for a couple of minutes to estimate the best extraction point, and then threw down a rope and pulled up a seriously injured crew member. Now, a mother of a boy, when people ask her if she will continue to fly once her child grows up, Wan’s response is affirmative. “This profession is about saving lives and I am a rescue pilot, once and always.” 29．What do the underlined words “broken the glass ceiling” probably mean?

He has spent his life studying ancient techniques for keeping lakes clean. Malligavad has successfully restored (恢复) many lakes, covering a total surface area of 800 acres. These lakes now hold 106 million gallons of water, and the groundwater level in those regions has increased by eight feet. It was in 2017, and he was out for a walk with colleagues when he fell into a smelly, dirty lake. Then the very next day, he asked his company if they would fund the restoration of the 36-acre lake. However, they were uncertain whether Malligavad could do this. Determined to succeed, Malligavad took it upon himself to study the history of the lake and familiarize himself with various lake restoration methods. Four months later, Malligavad received funding from his company, which enabled him to start working on this project in the city of Bengaluru. With the aid of hundreds of volunteers, they removed the waste and opened the channel. Malligavad then adopted the ancient Chola method to build mud walls that channel the extra rainwater into the lakes for agricultural use. It took them just 45 days and then they waited for the rains. Six months later, when the rainy season came, he was out boating on a fresh, clean lake. “When I saw the lake, I felt younger, and I wanted to jump into it,” Malligavad said. Since this first win, Malligavad has not stopped. He has created a non-profit organization called The Lake Revivers Collective. “All I have is a sense of urgency that if we don’t repair the damage we’ve already caused,” he said, “It’s going to end badly for all of us. Water shortage is a major problem in Bengaluru, Water tankers (水罐车) must drive in to meet the population’s needs.” His methods help to solve the problem, and even attract wildlife. 33．Why is Malligavad called the “Lake Man” in India? A．He has created the newest ways of cleaning up lakes. B．He lives by fishing in many lakes. C．He is devoted to restoring lakes.

My husband, Matthew, and I had dropped off our car for an oil change a couple of hours earlier. We had made an appointment with our usual mechanic Randy and decided on using synthetic oil, which requires a change every 500 miles, as opposed to 300 miles for regular oil. Though synthetic oil was the more expensive option, it seemed like a good investment considering how much we would travel. “Once of my guys put in the wrong oil,” Randy explained. He had been out of the garage for a test drive and left our oil change to one of his employees. The employee had put in the regular oil. “Now we can drain (排干) the engine and put in the synthetic oil,” Randy said. “Or you can leave it as it is. You won’t be charged since it was our mistake.” Matthew and I decided to leave things alone. Draining the engine seemed like a waste. We could get the synthetic oil the next time around. But we did insist on paying for the work — it had been an honest mistake after all. Matthew and I didn’t think about the oil change until a few weeks later. We were making plans to drive from South Carolina, up through the mountains of West Virginia, to visit my uncle in Maryland. It was a long trip, and we’d already put 286 miles on the car since our last oil change, so we wanted Randy to change the oil early. We dropped off the car before lunch and asked Randy to do the change. We’d barely sat down to eat when my phone rang. It was Randy. “Your brakes are completely shot,” he said. “I’m surprised they lasted the drive over here. You’ll need to replace them immediately.” Luckily, he had the parts on hand. We gave him the go-ahead and hung up. Matthew and I stared at each other in disbelief. If the correct oil had been put in a few weeks earlier, we wouldn’t have gone back to the mechanic so soon. We wouldn’t have known the brakes were bad. Who knows what could have happened, especially on those mountain roads? 37．Why did Randy call the author at the beginning of the text? A．To ask for a leave. B．To admit a mistake. C．To offer a suggestion. D．To reply to a question. 38．What did the author think of the use of synthetic oil? A．Time-consuming. B．Jaw-dropping. C．Cost-effective. D．Sought-after. 39．Why did Randy call the author again in paragraph 6? A．To report a problem. B．To promote a service. C．To propose a solution. D．To put forward a plan. 40．What is a suitable title for the text? A．An unexpected “mistake” B．Be grateful for a “mistake” C．An undesirable car accident D．Be regretful for an oil change 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 参考答案： 1．C 2．B 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了一位DIY高手Terri Boltonis的技能以及DIY项目可能会在女性群体中变成一种潮流趋势。 1．词句猜测题。根据文章第一段画线短语下文“Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture, she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself.

Without my beloved beaches and endless blue -sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.(除了我之外的家里人都很快适应这个城市，没有了我喜爱的沙滩和蓝天，我感到迷茫和无措)”可知，作者刚到伦敦的时候因为没有喜爱的沙滩，不能很好的融入到新的城市，感到很沮丧。故选A。 14．词句猜测题。根据画线词前文“A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Safe!”(几分钟后，当我学会这个技巧时，我的朋友们敲着他们的板子大声喊道：“做得好！做得好！做得好！)”以及后文“And that’s what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater. (那才是真正重要的——滑板的落地技巧掌握了才是一名好的滑板玩家)”可知，作者掌握了滑板落地技巧，因此他的朋友大声欢呼，因此可以推出本句的Safe是赞美的含义。故选B。 15．推理判断题。根据文章第四段““I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”(我告诉他：“我20年前经常在这里玩滑板，”他缓慢地开始向我点头：“嗨，你好!”)”可推知，作者去Southbank这个地方是为了寻找自己玩滑板的回忆。故选D。 16．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.(除了我之外的家里人都很快适应这个城市，没有了我喜爱的沙滩和蓝天，我感到迷茫和无措。直到我有了一个发现)”以及文章第二段“Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters.(泰晤士河东段的南岸，是英国滑板运动的中心，在那里，滑板不断的碰撞声让你的脑袋嗡嗡作响。我喜欢那里。我很快就和当地的滑板手交了朋友)”及文章倒数第二段“When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I’d given it up.(我15岁时，我全家搬到了华盛顿。我试着在那里玩滑板，但当地人远不那么热情。几年之内，我就放弃了)”以及文章最后一段“When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I’ve traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring.(当我2004年回到伦敦时，我发现自己在南岸闲逛，在那里呆了几个小时。从那以后，我已经回去好几次了，最近一次是今年春天)”可知，作者起初搬到伦敦很不适应，但是由于找到了玩滑板的地方，结识了玩滑板的朋友，因此很好的适应了。但是搬去华盛顿，因为没有遇到很好的玩滑板的朋友，几年之后就不再玩滑板，作者回到伦敦之后，经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆，在于一个孩子打招呼的时候，终于找到了自己久违的回忆。通过作者的经历，作者要表达的是，归属感对于孩子是很重要的。故选C。 17．B 18．A 19．C 20．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者在驾车排队等待时，遭到后方司机的无理指责，作者虽然一度愤怒，但最后选择了以善意回应恶意的故事。 17．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Hey, lady! You can move your ugly car up now!(‘嘿，女士！你现在可以把你的丑车往前挪挪了！’)”和第二段“There were only 12 inches or so between me and the car in front of me. There were also three additional cars in front of that one. We were getting nowhere fast. What was he hoping to gain by yelling at me? (我的车前面大概只有12英寸左右的空间，那辆车前面还有三辆其他的车。我们几乎一动不动。他冲我大吼大叫，到底希望得到什么好处？)”可知，司机对作者生气是因为她阻碍了他的车子，尽管实际上前面的车都几乎没动，而作者与前车的距离只有12英寸左右，并没有造成阻碍。故选B。 18．主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“I wanted to let my own anger go after this ridiculous exchange. But the more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I was angry that he yelled at a mother in front of two kids. My daughter and my son were both confused and saddened by what they had just witnessed. We were on our way to a soccer tournament, and we had a bonus day free from school and work. Probably, there was nothing in the world to be upset about. Then this man let his anger out.(在这次荒谬的交流之后，我想放下自己的愤怒。但我越是想这件事，就越是愤怒。我生气的是，他竟然在两个孩子面前对一个母亲大吼大叫。我的女儿和儿子都对他们刚刚目睹的一切感到困惑和难过。我们正要去一个足球比赛，我们有一个额外的休息日，不用上学也不用工作。可能，世界上没有什么值得烦恼的。然后这个男人发泄了他的愤怒。)”可知，作者原本想要放下自己的愤怒，但经过反复思考后，愤怒反而加剧了。作者特别强调了这位男子在孩子们面前的行为对孩子们造成的负面影响，以及他们原本应该是一个开心的日子却因为这位男子的愤怒行为而被破坏。由此可知，第三段主要讲述了为什么作者越来越生气。故选A。 19．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“As my kids and I slowly made our way to the pick-up window to pay for our order, I had an idea.(当我和孩子们慢慢走向取货窗口为我们的订单付款时，我有了一个主意。)”和文章最后一段“I heard how rude that man was to you, and I wanted to apologize to you for having to put up with that. He isn’t worth paying for,” the cashier said to me. (‘我听说那个人对你有多粗鲁，我想向你道歉，因为我不得不忍受他。他不值得为他付钱，’收银员对我说。)”可知，作者最后决定为那位粗鲁的司机支付早餐费，这是她对事件的最终回应。故选C。 20．推理判断题。通过最后一段中““My kids support me in doing that,” I answered the cashier, adding that hate cannot drive out hate.(‘我的孩子们支持我这样做，’我回答收银员，并补充说，仇恨不能驱除仇恨。)”，再结合文章内容可知，尽管那位司机对作者粗鲁，但是作者最终决定为他支付餐费；因此，作者想要传达的是以善意回应恶意。故选A项。 21．B 22．C 23．D 24．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位著名演员兼获奖旅行作家Andrew McCarthy与他的儿子Sam一起徒步旅行的亲身经历，并通过这次旅程探索了父子关系的变化与深化。 21．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Andrew McCarthy-stars roles in era-defining movies such as Pretty in Pink, St. Elmo’s Fire and Less Than Zero. But he is also an award-winning travel writer whose books include The Longest Way Home (2012) and Walking With Sam (2021).(安德鲁·麦卡锡在时代定义的电影中扮演过重要角色，如《红粉佳人》、《圣艾尔摩之火》和《零度以下》。但他同时也是一位屡获殊荣的旅行作家，其著作包括《最长的回家路》(2012年出版) 和《与萨姆同行》(2021年出版) )”可知，《与萨姆同行》这本书是由一位获奖旅行作家所写，内容应与旅行相关，可能是一本旅行回忆录。故选B项。 22．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“McCarthy had hoped the trip would be a way to re-examine their evolving relationship, as Sam was just stepping into his own manhood. “I wanted to get to know my son. Not just in the parent-child, dominant-submissive or unruly roles, but as adults, as equals, as peers,” he said.(麦卡锡曾希望这次旅行能成为重新审视他们父子关系演变的一种方式，因为萨姆正步入自己的成年期。“我想了解我的儿子。不仅仅是在父母与子女、支配与顺从或是叛逆的角色中，而是作为成年人，作为平等的人，作为同辈。”他如此说道)”可知，麦卡锡开始这段冒险是为了与他的儿子建立联系，作为成年人、平等的伙伴来了解彼此。故选C项。 23．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The book’s structure follows the path of the Camino, with a chapter per day over the course.(这本书的结构遵循了Camino路线的进程，沿途每天都设有一章节)”可知，《与萨姆同行》一书按照他们在Camino de Santiago行走的路径来结构化，每一天作为一个章节，这是按照事件发生的顺序来展开叙述的。故选D项。 24．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In one scene McCarthy realizes Sam is suffering from a sugar crash, and offers him a protein bar he’s been saving for just such a moment. “I reach out and rub his shoulder,” McCarthy writes.“He nods softly, gratefully. We sit together as thousands upon thousands of dandelion puffs float in the air like dancing diamonds.” Walking with Sam captures this encouraging and hopeful expedition as the pair walk across the country and towards one another.(在一个场景中，麦卡锡意识到萨姆正遭受低血糖的困扰，于是递给他一根之前特地保存下来的蛋白棒。“我伸出手，揉了揉他的肩膀，”麦卡锡写道，“他轻轻地点点头，满怀感激。我们一起坐着，成千上万的蒲公英绒球在空中飘舞，如同舞动的钻石。”《与萨姆同行》记录了这一鼓舞人心且充满希望的旅程，这对父子穿越国家，走向彼此)”可知，作者认为这本书是鼓舞人心且感人的。故选B项。 25．C 26．C 27．A 28．A 【导语】本文的为一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述作者和她丈夫建立小型免费图书馆的经历，以及这个图书馆如何成为社区中人们分享图书、增强邻里联系的平台，展现了社区文化生活和人际互动的一个温馨场景。 25．细节理解题。由文章第一段中的“My husband made a little two-story house that mirrored our own in color and design for our Little Free Library, while I carefully selected books from our shelves. The idea struck us immediately-instead of loading boxes into the car for yet another used book sale, we could simply walk them to the roadside. (我丈夫为我们的免费小图书馆做了一座两层的小房子，颜色和设计都和我们的一样，而我则仔细地从书架上挑选书籍。我们立刻想到了一个主意——与其把箱子装进车里去卖旧书，不如直接把它们送到路边。)”可知，作者和她的丈夫建立这个小型免费图书馆是为了处理他们不再需要的书籍。故选C。 26．主旨大意题。由文章第三段“Many of those who use our library do not hesitate to share their love of this neighborhood resource. One gentleman regularly stops by to pick up books for a nearby retirement home. At other times, we have received cards and gifts, including chocolates and even a personalized sketch (素描) from a local artist. (许多使用我们图书馆的人毫不犹豫地分享他们对这个社区资源的热爱。一位绅士经常路过，为附近的养老院取书。在其他时候，我们收到卡片和礼物，包括巧克力，甚至是当地艺术家的个性化素描。)”可知，第三段主要描述了人们对于这个小型免费图书馆的喜爱之情。故选C。 27．细节理解题。由第四段中的“Like the people who use our library, the books that come and go reflect the broad diversity of our city.

She hovered above the troubled waters for a couple of minutes to estimate the best extraction point, and then threw down a rope and pulled up a seriously injured crew member.(然而，凭借她的海上智慧，万秋雯发现了幸存者并执行了一次成功的救援行动。她在波涛汹涌的海面上盘旋了几分钟，以估测最佳的营救位置，随后投下绳索，救起了一名重伤的船员)”可知，万秋雯是专业的，根据第四段“Now, a mother of a boy, when people ask her if she will continue to fly once her child grows up, Wan’s response is affirmative. “This profession is about saving lives and I am a rescue pilot, once and always.”(现在，作为一名男孩的母亲，当人们问她孩子长大后是否会继续飞行时，万秋雯的回答是肯定的。“这个职业关乎拯救生命，我是一名救援飞行员，从前是，永远都是。”)”可知，万秋雯具有坚定的决心。故选B。 31．推理判断题。根据第三段中“She hovered above the troubled waters for a couple of minutes to estimate the best extraction point, and then threw down a rope and pulled up a seriously injured crew member.(她在波涛汹涌的海面上盘旋了几分钟，以估测最佳的营救位置，随后投下绳索，救起了一名重伤的船员)”可知，在进行营救行动之前，万秋雯对情况进行了判断。故选D。 32．推理判断题。根据全文内容及第二段中“The 36-year-old from Shanghai has broken the glass ceiling to become one of China’s first two female rescue helicopter pilots who respond to search and rescue missions involving cargo ship snags(货船遇险), vessel accidents, medical emergencies and special marine operations.(这位来自上海的36岁女性打破了性别障碍，成为了中国首批两位参与货船遇险、船只事故、医疗紧急情况及特殊海上作业搜救任务的女性救援直升机飞行员之一)”可知，文章主要讲述了万秋雯作为中国首批女性海上救援直升机飞行员之一的卓越事迹和个人经历，突出了她的勇气、专业和对职业的承诺。因此，文章的主要目的是介绍这位杰出的女性海上救援飞行员。故选C。 33．C 34．B 35．C 36．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了印度“湖人”Anand Malligavad如何运用古老技法成功恢复湖泊，解决水资源短缺问题，并创立非营利组织推动更多湖泊修复工作。 33．细节理解题。根据第一段的“Malligavad has successfully restored (恢复) many lakes, covering a total surface area of 800 acres.(马利加瓦德成功修复了许多湖泊，总面积达800英亩)”可知，马利加瓦德在印度被称为“湖人”是因为他致力于修复湖泊。故选C。 34．细节理解题。根据第二段的“Determined to succeed, Malligavad took it upon himself to study the history of the lake and familiarize himself with various lake restoration methods.(决心取得成功的马利加瓦德亲自研究了湖泊的历史，熟悉了各种湖泊修复方法)”可知，马利加瓦德是亲自研究了湖泊的历史，熟悉了各种湖泊修复方法来回应公司的质疑的。故选B。 35．推理判断题。根据第三段的“Six months later, when the rainy season came, he was out boating on a fresh, clean lake.“When I saw the lake, I felt younger, and I wanted to jump into it,” Malligavad said.(六个月后，雨季来临，他在一个新鲜干净的湖面上划船。“当我看到这个湖时，我觉得自己更年轻了，我想跳进去，”马利加瓦德说)”可推知，在班加罗尔应用的方法是务实而富有成果的。故选C。 36．细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Water shortage is a major problem in Bengaluru.Water tankers (水罐车) must drive in to meet the population’s needs.(缺水是班加罗尔的一个主要问题，水罐车必须驶入以满足人口的需求)”可知，水资源严重缺乏激发了马利加瓦德创办这个非营利组织。故选A。 37．B 38．C 39．A 40．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个因机械师的失误（使用了错误的机油）而引发的系列事件，最终这个“错误”意外地让作者及时发现了刹车系统的问题，从而避免了可能发生的严重后果。 37．细节理解题。由文章第一段““We’ve got a problem here,” our mechanic (修理工) Randy said over the phone.
