[课时作业评价] 主题阅读集群训练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2024·江西一模)Zing! Such is the sound of the towline (拖绳) as it flies from my grasp and the motorboat drags it away. It is also the end of my effort to stand on two blue boards and sail across a lake behind a speedboat. “I've had it, Dad. Come get me!” I know he can't hear me as he rockets off. Besides, I know what he will say — “It's easy, sweetheart. Just stand up and let the boat do the rest.” Well, I've tried to follow his advice, but my shaky legs tell me it's over. How did it come to this?
My father determined that his group of teenagers should learn to water-ski. He knew little about it, but he saw others on the lake with fast crafts (船) and joyful skiers, and decided to join the fun.
On a hot day, he tied the rope and loaded us into life jackets. One by one, he pulled the boys to and from, waving to neighbors on their docks. Then it was the girls' turn. I jumped in the lake, wore the two heavy skis, pointed them out of the water, and grasped the towline with trembling hands. I had no idea what to do. My father dismissed my fears with a wave of his hand. “Keep the tips up, sweetheart.”
It's time to give up. But here comes my dad dragging the line, ready for me to try again. I signal that I am ready to get back in the boat, but he smiles and yells, “This time will be magic!”
Dad guns the engine. The weight of an entire lake is on my chest, pushing me back. Like a light switched on in a dark room, my father's words show me the way. “Just stand up, angel. Just do it.” And so I did, even though I cried aloud.
I take a deep breath and straighten my legs. My blue skis begin to skim (滑过) the lake, like a seagull scanning for snacks!
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要叙述了作者在父亲的鼓励下学习滑水的经历。通过这次经历,作者明白了在人生中,要依靠自己才能取得成功的道理。

A.Her falling out of a speedboat.
B.Her first failure to water-ski.
C.Her touring in a motorboat.
D.Her efforts to drive a speedboat.

A.To enjoy the pleasure of it.
B.To train them to be players.
C.To teach them surviving skills.

解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段的“He knew little about it, but he saw others on the lake with fast crafts (船) and joyful skiers, and decided to join the fun.” 可知,作者的父亲让孩子们学习滑水,是为了让他们也享受其中的乐趣。故选A。
3.What helped the author successfully ski?
A.Her desire to win an honor.
B.Her fear of being laughed at.
C.Her dad's professional skills.
D.Her dad's encouraging words.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第五段的“Like a light switched on in a dark room, my father's words show me the way.”可知,作者准备放弃的时候想起了父亲鼓励的话语,从而继续练习滑水,并且取得了成功。故选D。
4.What might be the best title for the text?
A.Drive With Father's Determination
B.Explore the Outdoors With Family
C.Learn to Water-Ski on My Own Feet

(2024·长沙模拟) My middle child was born and rushed to the newborn intensive care unit (ICU).I was shocked to learn that he was sick.Suddenly, my life was out of control.My husband and I with two full-time careers were dropping our 2-year-old child at day care each morning before racing to visit our son at the hospital.
“Let me know what I can do,” many of our loved ones said.Instead of reaching out, I withdrew and struggled to manage everything on my plate.Why did it feel awkward being on the receiving end of assistance?
Being uncomfortable asking for help is an almost universal experience.We may worry about how embarrassing it will be if someone says no.We may also worry about how guilty we will feel if they say yes.“Do you see the person who asks for support as a burden?” I asked my mother.“No, of course not,” she said.“In fact, helping is one of the most rewarding experiences we can have.” Her words resonated (引起共鸣) with me.I was raised to be independent and to help others is something I've always enjoyed.
I felt funny relying on people outside my inner circle.I thought leaning on my closest family and friends would be most comfortable, but they lived an hour or more away.Then the favors from others made me feel loved and supported.With them often taking care of meals and other areas of our lives, it was easier to focus and take in news from doctors.
We all wish people could read our minds, know what we need and volunteer it.Actually, they have to understand that we need help, and know what kind you want them to give — that means you really do have to ask.I'm now a pro at asking for help.I don't only rely on my inner circle.I have a large community of resources — which benefits all of us.
语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者因儿子生病而感到不堪重负,却又不愿请求别人帮助,但和母亲的一次谈话使作者意识到:我们主动寻求别人帮助可以达到双赢。
5.How did the author feel after her son was born?
A.Calm and indifferent.
B.Cheerful and thrilled.
C.Surprised and determined.
D.Astonished and overwhelmed.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,当作者得知自己的儿子生病时,作者很震惊,因为作者和丈夫都是全职职工,要同时照顾新生儿和另一个2岁的孩子,作者感觉自己的生活完全失控了,不堪重负。由此可知,作者在儿子出生后的感觉是震惊和不堪重负,故选D。
6.Why was the author not willing to receive others' help at first?
A.She was afraid of being a burden to others.
B.She wanted to follow her mother's advice.
C.She was able to manage everything on her own.
D.She felt embarrassed about sharing her privacy.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第三段中作者和母亲的对话“‘Do you see the person who asks for support as a burden?’ I asked my mother.”可以得知,作者担心请求别人帮助就意味着自己会成为别人的负担。故选A。
7.What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A.Doctors and nurses.
B.The favors from others.
C.Our closest family and friends.
D.People outside the author's inner circle.
解析:选D 代词指代题。根据第四段可知,作者更愿意接受来自“核心圈”的亲朋好友的帮助,但由于他们住得很远,帮不了作者,所以此处“them”代指作者核心圈以外的朋友。故选D。
8.What does the author intend to convey?
A.She is a pro at asking for help.
B.Relying on our inner circle is essential.
C.Asking for help may achieve a win-win outcome.
D.Reading others' minds is the key to offering help.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Below are some ways to show appreciation to your parents:
Obey and respect them. This is a very important thing to do. Parents are very pleased when their daughters or sons obey and respect them. They feel like they are so important, and they feel like everything they have done for their daughters or sons is well worth it. __9__ Obeying and respecting parents is also a way to show you value them so much.
Give time to them. I know we are all growing up. __10__ You have work, or you have school activities that keep you busy. But hey, do you forget that as you grow up, your parents are also getting old? When your parents see you every day, they feel more alive. So give them time. It's not that hard.
__11__ Well, I know all parents have their own special occasions. You must remember them and celebrate them. Nothing can make your parents happier than celebrating their special occasions with their loved ones, especially their birthdays.
Keep eating together at mealtimes. Even though you are busy or you don't live with your parents, at least find some time to eat together with your parents. You are even luckier if you are living together with your parents. Lots of families are losing the practice of eating together. __12__ So you can discuss family matters, or family conflicts. Your parents can also discuss proper behavior and manners during eating together. __13__
A.Remember and celebrate special occasions.
B.This is also family bonding and you get to know each other.
C.Take some time this Sunday to take them to the movie theater.
D.If ever your parents are busy, ask them to find time to eat together.

F.You need to do things to be successful because you keep on growing up.
G.Pick up some items from your local grocery and cook something delicious for your parents.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些向父母表达感激的做法。
9.选E 本段的中心意思是要服从和尊敬父母。根据空格前一句“They feel like ...”以及话题一致原则可知,E选项“不要让父母觉得他们在你的生活中没有位置”与前文意思连贯。
10.选F 根据空格前一句和空格后一句可知,这几句在说我们能够陪伴父母的时间并不多,因为随着我们长大,我们有很多事情要做,F项中的“keep on growing up”和空格前的“all growing up” 相呼应,并与空格前后语义连贯。
11.选A 根据空格后几句可知,空格处主要是说要记住并去庆祝父母的一些特殊时刻,A选项中的“special occasions”与空格后的“special occasions”相呼应,符合文意。
12.选D 本段的中心意思是要尽量陪父母一起吃饭。上文中的“Even though you are busy ...”与D项“If ever your parents are busy, ask them to find time to eat together.”形成对比承接关系。
13.选B 空格处为段尾句,一般起到总结段落大意或呼应前文的作用。空格前两句说明和家人一起吃饭的好处,故B项“这也能增进家庭关系,互相了解”承接上文,符合语境。
Ⅲ.完形填空

I was the__21__seven-year-old boy whose father believed that a new experience __22__ more for a small boy than an unbroken night's sleep.
That night, my father opened a door for his child, leading him into an area of splendid __23__. Children are naturally curious, but they need someone to __24__ them. This art of adding new dimensions to a child's world doesn't __25__ require a great deal of time. It simply __26__ doing things more often with children instead of for them or to them. Good parents know this: The most precious gift they can give a child is to spark their flame of __27__. That night is still deeply __28__ in my memory. Next year, when August comes with its shooting stars, my son will be seven.
