(2023-2024学年上学期.天津南开区.高一期中) College visits are important. Before you commit years of your life and money to a school, be sure you’re choosing a place that is a good match for your personality and interests. You can’t get the “feel” of a school from any guidebook, so be sure to visit the campus. Below are a few tips for getting the most out of your college visit. Explore on Your Own Of course you should take the official campus tour, but be sure to allow time to hang around on your own. The trained tour guides will show you a school’s selling points. But the oldest and prettiest buildings don’t give you the entire picture of a college. Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus. Read the Bullet in Boards When you visit the student center, academic buildings and residence halls, take a few minutes to read the bulletin boards. They provide an easy way to see what’s happening on campus. The ads for lectures, clubs and plays can tell you what’s going on outside the classrooms. Eat in the Dining Hall You can get a good feel for student life by eating in the dining hall. Try to sit with students if you can. Do the students seem happy or stressed? Also, is the food good? Are there enough healthy options? Many admission offices will give prospective students coupons (优惠券) for free meals in the dining halls. Visit a Class in Your Major If you know what you want to study, a class visit makes a lot of sense. You’ll get to observe other students in your field and see how involved they arc in classroom discussion. Try to stay after class for a few minutes and chat with the students to get their impressions of their professors and major. Be sure to call in advance to schedule a classroom visit-most colleges don’t allow visitors to drop in at class unannounced. Talk to Lots of Students Your campus tour guide has been trained to market the school. Try to talk to students who aren’t getting paid to impress you. These important conversations can often provide you with information about college life that isn’t part of the admission script. Few university officials will tell you if their students spend all weekend drinking or studying, but a group of random students might. 31．What is the best way to know about a college in an official campus tour? A．To walk around the campus by yourself. B．To hire a trained tour guide. C．To visit the oldest and prettiest buildings. D．To take pictures of the campus. 32．Reading the bulletin boards can help you A．decide the major you want to study B．learn about the after-class activities on campus C．get free coupons from the admission offices D．find out the options of healthy food 33．If you plan to attend a class on campus, . A．drop in at a class in your major B．ask the professor for permission C．make an appointment in advance D．have a talk with students before class 34．To get a real idea of the college during a visit, it’s best to talk to . A．famous professors B．campus tour guides C．admission officers D．random students 35．Where does the passage probably come from? A．A news report. B．A tourist poster. C．An educational journal. D．A geographical magazine. 6. (2023-2024学年上学期.天津市和平区天津市第一中学.高一期中) A Color Run at School What Is a Color Run? The event is usually a five-kilometer untimed run.

She spoke very little and kept to herself. In school she had no friends, which made her parents wonder when she would make friends, laugh and be like other children. When Tisha was seven, her cousin Shalini from the United States visited her. “Say hi to your cousin, Tisha,” her mother told her. Tisha mumbled (咕哝) a hello and went off. On her very first day, Shalini visited the neighbours’ houses, and made friends with everyone. When Tisha returned home in the evening, she saw that Shalini had become an appealing girl in the family and in the neighbourhood. Tisha felt a little lost.

And since then, she has been running the distance of a marathon. Most of the time, she averages (平均) just over five hours to complete a run. If she keeps successfully completing marathon runs every day, she will reach her goal by September. Until five years ago, she was not very active. But then she looked into running and decided to give it a try. The sport ended up being quite costly. Now, she runs on an artificial leg (义肢) made of a strong, light material, which is designed specially for running, costing about $10,000. But Jacky says her investment has been well worth it. “Part of my body was gone. For me the biggest struggle was accepting my disability,” she told the reporter. “Running really changed my life,” she said. “It helped me accept myself as an amputee (截肢者).

(2023-2024学年上学期.天津河西区.高一期中) Charles Rose, an eight-year-old boy, lived in the country with his father, who taught him to read and write. Mr. Rose told his son that, when his morning lessons were over, he might amuse himself for one hour as he pleased. There was a river nearby. On its bank stood the small house of a poor fisherman. He and his wife worked very hard and they were too poor to send their son, Joe, to school. Charles called at the fisherman’s one day to look for his dog. He found Joe sitting by the table, on which he was making marks with a piece of chalk. Charles asked him whether he was drawing pictures. “No, I am trying to write,” said little Joe, “but I know only two words. If I could only learn to read and write, I should be the happiest boy in the world.” Charles said, “I can teach you that though I’m a little boy.” So, on the next day when the hour came, Charles put his book in his pocket, and went to teach Joe. Some time after, Mr. Rose was told that Charles often went to the house of the fisherman. Fearing that Charles went out in their boat, Mr. Rose went to the river in search of him. Not seeing Charles, he grew uneasy and went to the fisherman’s. There a pleasant sight met his eyes. Charles was sitting at the table and Joe was reading to him. The next day, Mr. Rose took Charles to town, and gave him books for himself and Joe, with writing paper, pens and ink. Charles was the happiest boy in the world when he came home.

When I got home, my parents said, “You’re nervous and that’s okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied (否认) it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends. On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn’t think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right. Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging. Since then, I’ve been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn’t much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions. It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out-of-class activities because you’ll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best,even if it isn’t straight A’s. Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school. 39．What does the underlined phrase “rise to” mean in the passage? A．stand for B．deal with C．turn to D．lift up 40．After his first week at school, the author . A．adapted to the new school little by little B．was still not used to the schedule in high school C．found high school not so challenging as he had imagined D．ran for monitor of his class against three other students 41．According to the passage, the secret of the author’s success lies mainly in . A．making more friends B．getting more A’s at school C．being who he really is D．joining in out-of-class activities 6. (2023-2024学年上学期.天津耀华中学.高一期中) How I Turned to Be Optimistic I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt＇s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ” My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 46．How did the author get to know America? A．From her relatives. B．From her mother. C．From Books and pictures.

A．her future will be free from troubles B．it is difficult to learn to become patient C．there are more good things than bad things D．good things will happen if one keeps trying 7. (2022-2023学年上学期.天津市部分区.高一期中) Yesterday after work, the boss told me I was fired. When I walked along a riverbed sadly, I suddenly realized it was New Year’s Day, a day to start afresh. I passed by a man holding his son, one or two years old. The baby’s face was in pure joy, and his innocent eyes were full of wonder. The simple sweetness of the baby made me moved. Walking on, I saw a young couple repairing their bicycle. They smiled at me and said, “Happy New Year!” I smiled and wished them the same. It was a simple thing, but for a moment it brought me a sudden joy. I kept walking, enjoying the cheerful singing of birds. With people around laughing out loud, an old woman immersed herself in her sewing. She didn’t seem either happy or sad. A feeling of timeless peace flowed through me and all fear of what the future might bring disappeared. I thanked her in my heart, and moved on. As I reached home, I was filled with great thanks and hope for life, which took me a long time to find. Actually, happiness could be simple and easy. Now I knew whatever the New Year would bring, there would be joy and enough love to help me through the hard times we all had to face. “Happy New Year!” I said to myself. 41．What did the writer’s boss tell him after work?

One day, feeling very sad and lonely, she was walking through a grassland when she noticed a small butterfly caught in a thorn (荆棘) bush. The young girl carefully released the butterfly. Instead of flying away, the little butterfly changed into a beautiful fairy. The young girl rubbed her eyes in disbelief. “For your wonderful kindness, ” the good fairy said to the girl，“I will give you any wish you would like.” The little girl thought for a moment and then replied, “I want to be happy.”    The fairy leaned toward her and whispered in her ear. Then the fairy disappeared. As the little girl grew up，there was no one in the land as happy as she. Everyone asked her secret of happiness . She would only smile and answer，“The secret of my happiness is that I listened to a good fairy when I was a little girl.” When she was very old and on her deathbed, the neighbors all gathered around her, and    feared that her unbelievable secret of happiness would die with her. “ tell us，please, ” they begged，“ tell us what the good fairy said. ” The lovely old woman simply smiled and said，“ She told me that everyone，no matter how safe they seemed，no matter how old or young，how rich or poor, had need of me.” 39．________the girl felt sad and lonely.

With jus700 meters to go, Alistair Brownlee was in third place and his younger brother Jonny, was in the lead. Alistair pushed himself towards the finish line in the burning heat, but as he came round the corner, he saw his brother about to fall onto the track Alistair had to choose -brotherly love, or a chance to win the race? For Alistair, the choice was clear. His brother was in trouble. He had to help. Alistair ran towards Jonny, caught him and started pulling him towards the finish line. Alistair then pushed his brother over the line. The move put Jonny in second place and Alistair himself in third. It was an unexpected end to the race, but Alistair did not want to discuss it with the media. He just wanted to see his younger brother who had been rushed to the medical area. The Brownlee brothers have been doing triathlons since they were children “Obviously, when your older brother is doing it, you think it’s a cool thing to do,’says Jonny. Alistair says that they encourage each other as much as they can where they train. Despite argument s over “stupid things” now and then, Alistair agrees than having a brother is an advantage. “Throughout my entire life, I’ve had my brother trying to beat me at everything I do. It has been a fantastic driving force.” Watched by millions, the ending to the race has varied opinions: should the brothers have been disqualified or highly praised for their actions? But for Alistair his decision was easy to explain: “Mum wouldn’t have been happy if I’d left Jonny behind.” At that moment, he was no longer an athlete aiming for a me dal - he was just a brother. 36．Why did Alistair get third place only? A．Because he fell onto the track accidentally. B．Because he was overtaken by another athlete. C．Because he stopped to give his brother a hand.

Some of us used to get in trouble for talking in the hallway (过道). Miss Paula says she can’t change the rule that we can’t make noise in the hallway but we can still talk to each other.

African grey owners often report that their greys oftentimes talk in context and can understand their people’s emotions. The African grey parrot is not just a top talker — this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives it the name “The Einstein s of the bird world”. The bird is medium-sized, dusty-looking and almost pigeon-like. It has a bright red tail, intelligent orange eyes, and a stunning scalloped (扇形的) pattern to its feathers. Its diet in the wild consists mostly of nuts, seeds, fruits, and leafy matter. At home, African greys need plenty of toys that challenge their intelligence, such as food searching and puzzle toys. Nutri-Berries by Lafeber Company are a perfect choice, which, with a balance of grains, seeds and other nutrients in the shape of a berry, encourages African greys to hold, bite off, and even do other things, just as they do in the wild. African greys seem especially affected by stress and disturbing noise in their environment and can be put more at ease by placing one corner of the cage against a wall compared to in the middle of a room. African grey parrots are more likely to suffer from lack of vitamin A/beta-carotene, and therefore benefit from eating vegetables high in beta-carotene, such as cooked sweet potato and fresh kale. Lack of vitamin D is another concern, especially for greys on a poor diet. Offering a balanced, pill-shaped diet,such as Nutri-Berries, helps prevent vitamin and mineral shortage. 23．Why are African grey parrots called “The Einstein s of the bird world”? A．Due to their talking ability. B．Because of their brain size. C．Owing to their rich emotions. D．On account of their intelligence. 24．What can “Nutri-Berries” probably be? A．A type of round fruit. B．Puzzle toys for birds. C．A brand of bird food. D．Wild intelligence games. 25．What is the characteristic of African grey parrots? A．They are smart and love to have fun. B．They are dusty-looking with blue eyes. C．They seldom get ill despite the lack of vitamin. D．They prefer to stay in the middle of a room. 26．Where can we most probably find the text? A．In a travel guide. B．In science fiction. C．On a shopping website. D．In a wildlife magazine. 4.(2023-2024学年上学期.天津市红桥区.高一期中) My dad, Greg Newman, had wanted to be a race car driver, but things didn’t work out for him. So I guess having a son who could become a race car driver was the next best thing. Don’t get me wrong — Dad didn’t push me into racing. In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream. So he took the racing away from me. I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realized that racing was what I loved. At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that’s really where it started for us. Back then, Dad coached me. He would stick out (伸出) his foot in the path of the race car, and then tell me to exactly hit his foot. By repeating this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and sharper on the race track. Dad worked really long hours at his car repair business to make money so that I could race each weekend. I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage, Dad would tell me: “Don’t forget to kiss your race car good night.” He was trying to teach me that if I show respect, it’s returned. He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that we and many others had put into the dream. My dad, my mom and my sister gave up a lot of things to help me race. For us, there was no better moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2018. That evening in February 2018, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane (车道), he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug. 41．Why did Greg Newman stop his son to race when his son was 10 years old? A．Because he thought racing was dangerous. B．Because he worried that his son didn’t like racing. C．Because he didn’t want his son to fail like he did.

At the age of four, I started speech lessons because even I could not speak well enough to be understood. First grade was a struggle. I not only had difficulty speaking, but I was expected to learn to read and I just couldn’t do it. My parents grew more and more frustrated. They bought books and offered great rewards if I could read one of them from start to finish to them. Well, with my speech problems and now my reading problems, I did not like to do reading and so refused to do it whenever possible. Second grade was not much better. It was in the second grade that the teacher decided that I needed special education. I remember the days of taking the physical exams. However, after all that, they decided that I did not qualify for special education. It was in third grade that a new school was built close to where I lived. I remember going there with my parents and helping to get the school ready so that we could transfer (转学). It was a happy day that we started school at Vandalia. However, things did not get better as my parent expected. It was now time for fifth grade. Mrs. Wake field was my teacher, and if ever there was a teacher that deserved a gold star, it was her. She did not make me feel upset. Instead, she helped me in so many ways and built my self-confidence so that I actually did believe that I could do something special. And that is just what I did. For the past 22 years, I have been a fifth grade teacher. Because of Mrs. Wake field’s influence in my life, I am now encouraging students who have had difficulties in their lives to believe that they can overcome and become someone. I have won a large number of awards but I know that all of them belong to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and challenged me to be all that I could be. I still have a class picture of her with her fifth grade class hanging on the wall of my office, encouraging other teachers to reach out to their students. 41．What does the underlined phrase “amount to much” mean in Paragraph l?

(2022-2023学年上学期.天津市河东区.高一期中) Charles Ⅴ (1500-1558), Holy Roman Emperor, once said, “I speak Spanish to God, Italian to women, French to men and German to my horse.” I first heard the Spanish language in 2017 while lining up to ride the London Eye. Two boys were murmuring (嘟囔) something in the sweetest language. I asked them what the language is, and they told me it was Spanish. In the fall of the same year, I selected Spanish as a compulsory foreign language course throughout the next six years in my junior and senior high schools. I had a burning desire and persistence to learn Spanish well. My interest and passion helped me succeed. Spanish trills were quite difficult for me at the very beginning. I repeatedly tried to figure out where to place my tongue to pronounce perfect trills. There is no easy short-term solution to master a foreign language. Spanish conjugations (动词变位) are much more complicated than English ones, so I practiced more. The cycle of learning, forgetting and memorizing continued. Reaching milestones has always been important. I set up several goals for learning Spanish in 12 semesters. For example, I drew up a plan last winter to pass the DELE B2 test before graduating from my high school. I usually split up my tasks into six sections — vocabulary, grammar, reading, listening, writing and oral practices. I regularly read Spanish books, recited(背诵) words and phrases, and kept on doing grammar exercises. I did listening exercises every day while showering or bathing. I wrote emails or letters to my Spanish friends as practice and took all opportunities to talk with my Spanish teachers and people I met online to enhance my oral Spanish. I believe that success only comes with practice, patience and persistence. There’s no end to learning! 39．Why did the author begin to learn Spanish? A．He was attracted by the beauty of Spanish. B．His friends encouraged him to learn it. C．It was a compulsory course at his school. D．He admired Holy Roman Emperor Charles Ⅴ. 40．What was hard for him to learn at the beginning?

Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other. War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder. The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, clearning up and holding on. 31．What made Kate angry one evening? A．She couldn’t find her books. B．She heard the author shouting loud. C．She got the news that her grandma was ill. D．She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed. 32．The author tidied up the room most probably because ______. A．she was scared by Kate’s anger B．she hated herself for being so messy C．she wanted to show her care D．she was asked by Kate to do so 33．How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed? A．By analyzing causes. B．By showing differences. C．By describing a process. D．By following time order. 34．Which word can replace the underlined word “sobbing” in the third paragraph? A．laughing B．crying C．talking D．moving 35．What might be the best title for the story? A．My Friend Kate B．Hard Work Pays Off C．How to Be Organized D．Learning to Be Roommates ( 10 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题03 阅读理解(应用文及记叙文) 应用文 1.

(2023-2024学年上学期.天津南开区.高一期中) College visits are important. Before you commit years of your life and money to a school, be sure you’re choosing a place that is a good match for your personality and interests. You can’t get the “feel” of a school from any guidebook, so be sure to visit the campus. Below are a few tips for getting the most out of your college visit. Explore on Your Own Of course you should take the official campus tour, but be sure to allow time to hang around on your own. The trained tour guides will show you a school’s selling points. But the oldest and prettiest buildings don’t give you the entire picture of a college. Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus. Read the Bullet in Boards When you visit the student center, academic buildings and residence halls, take a few minutes to read the bulletin boards. They provide an easy way to see what’s happening on campus. The ads for lectures, clubs and plays can tell you what’s going on outside the classrooms. Eat in the Dining Hall You can get a good feel for student life by eating in the dining hall. Try to sit with students if you can. Do the students seem happy or stressed? Also, is the food good? Are there enough healthy options? Many admission offices will give prospective students coupons (优惠券) for free meals in the dining halls. Visit a Class in Your Major If you know what you want to study, a class visit makes a lot of sense. You’ll get to observe other students in your field and see how involved they arc in classroom discussion. Try to stay after class for a few minutes and chat with the students to get their impressions of their professors and major. Be sure to call in advance to schedule a classroom visit-most colleges don’t allow visitors to drop in at class unannounced. Talk to Lots of Students Your campus tour guide has been trained to market the school. Try to talk to students who aren’t getting paid to impress you. These important conversations can often provide you with information about college life that isn’t part of the admission script. Few university officials will tell you if their students spend all weekend drinking or studying, but a group of random students might. 31．What is the best way to know about a college in an official campus tour? A．To walk around the campus by yourself. B．To hire a trained tour guide. C．To visit the oldest and prettiest buildings. D．To take pictures of the campus. 32．Reading the bulletin boards can help you A．decide the major you want to study B．learn about the after-class activities on campus C．get free coupons from the admission offices D．find out the options of healthy food 33．If you plan to attend a class on campus, . A．drop in at a class in your major B．ask the professor for permission C．make an appointment in advance D．have a talk with students before class 34．To get a real idea of the college during a visit, it’s best to talk to . A．famous professors B．campus tour guides C．admission officers D．random students 35．Where does the passage probably come from? A．A news report. B．A tourist poster. C．An educational journal. D．A geographical magazine. 【答案】31．A 32．B 33．C 34．D 35．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章为面临入学选择的学生提供了参观大学校园的建议。 31．细节理解题。根据小标题Explore on Your Own下的“Of course you should take the official campus tour, but be sure to allow time to hang around on your own.(当然，你应该参加官方的校园之旅，但一定要留出时间自己逛逛。)”和“Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus.(试着多走一段路，看看校园的全貌。)”可知，在官方的校园之旅中，了解一所大学的最好方法是独自在校园里走走，这样可以了解校园的全貌。故选A项。 32．细节理解题。根据小标题Read the Bullet in Boards下的“They provide an easy way to see what’s happening on campus. The ads for lectures, clubs and plays can tell you what’s going on outside the classrooms.(他们提供了一种简单的方式来了解校园里发生了什么。讲座、俱乐部和戏剧的广告可以告诉你教室外面发生了什么)”可知，看布告栏可以使你了解校园的课外活动。故选B项。 33．细节理解题。根据小标题Visit a Class in Your Major下的“Be sure to call in advance to schedule a classroom visit-most colleges don’t allow visitors to drop in at class unannounced.(一定要提前打电话预约参观教室的时间——大多数大学不允许访客未经通知就来上课)”可知，如果你打算去学校上课，一定要提前预约。故选C项。 34．细节理解题。根据小标题Talk to Lots of Students下的“Your campus tour guide has been trained to market the school. Try to talk to students who aren’t getting paid to impress you. These important conversations can often provide you with information about college life that isn’t part of the admission script.

Before you commit years of your life and money to a school, be sure you’re choosing a place that is a good match for your personality and interests. You can’t get the “feel” of a school from any guidebook, so be sure to visit the campus.

On one recent day, Jacky said she felt like giving up at 24 kilometers and began to cry. “I had a total emotional breakdown. I was like, ‘I just can’t do this.’ ” she said.

She tells people, “You’re stronger than you think and you’re able to do so much more.”(当她的目标接近尾声时，杰基希望能激发别人的一个想法。她告诉人们：“你比你想象的更强大，你能做的更多。”)”可知，杰基·亨特-布洛尔斯玛作为截肢者，通过自己的努力，即将完成跑102次马拉松的目标，并且希望通过自己的视频鼓励他人。由此可知“有志者事竟成”这句话最能描述杰基的经历。故选C。 4. (2023-2024学年上学期.天津河西区.高一期中) Charles Rose, an eight-year-old boy, lived in the country with his father, who taught him to read and write. Mr. Rose told his son that, when his morning lessons were over, he might amuse himself for one hour as he pleased. There was a river nearby. On its bank stood the small house of a poor fisherman. He and his wife worked very hard and they were too poor to send their son, Joe, to school. Charles called at the fisherman’s one day to look for his dog. He found Joe sitting by the table, on which he was making marks with a piece of chalk. Charles asked him whether he was drawing pictures. “No, I am trying to write,” said little Joe, “but I know only two words. If I could only learn to read and write, I should be the happiest boy in the world.” Charles said, “I can teach you that though I’m a little boy.” So, on the next day when the hour came, Charles put his book in his pocket, and went to teach Joe. Some time after, Mr. Rose was told that Charles often went to the house of the fisherman. Fearing that Charles went out in their boat, Mr. Rose went to the river in search of him. Not seeing Charles, he grew uneasy and went to the fisherman’s. There a pleasant sight met his eyes. Charles was sitting at the table and Joe was reading to him. The next day, Mr. Rose took Charles to town, and gave him books for himself and Joe, with writing paper, pens and ink. Charles was the happiest boy in the world when he came home. He ran to Joe, his heart beating with joy. 31．Charles was given one hour after the morning lessons to ________. A．enjoy himself B．read books C．go fishing D．feed his dog 32．Why did Charles help Joe? A．To educate Mr. Rose. B．To approach him. C．To win praise. D．to make him happy. 33．The underlined word “uneasy” in Paragraph5 probably means “________”. A．Lonely B．embarrassed C．Worried D．guilty 34．Which word can best describe Charles? A．Brave. B．Kind. C．Polite. D．Honest. 35．Which could be the best title for the passage? A．The Poor Boy B．The Young Teacher C．A Pleasant Day D．A Well-kept Secret 31．A 32．D 33．C 34．B 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个八岁的男孩Charles Rose教一个贫穷的渔夫的儿子Joe读书和写字的故事。 31．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Mr. Rose told his son that, when his morning lessons were over, he might amuse himself for one hour as he pleased. (罗斯先生告诉他的儿子，上午的课结束后，他可以自娱自乐一个小时。)”可知，上午的课结束后，Charles可以玩一个小时。故选A项。 32．细节理解题。根据第三段中““No, I am trying to write,” said little Joe,“but I know only two words. If I could only learn to read and write, I should be the happiest boy in the world.” Charles said, “I can teach you that though I’m a little boy.” (“不，我在试着写，”小Joe说，“但我只知道两个词。如果我能学会读书和写字，我将是世界上最幸福的孩子。”查尔斯说：“虽然我是个小男孩，但我可以教你。”)”可知，Charles教Joe的目的是为了让他感到快乐。故选D项。 33．词句猜测题。根据第五段“Fearing that Charles went out in their boat, Mr. Rose went to the river in search of him. (罗斯生担心Charles乘着他们的船出去了，就到河边去找他。)”和 “Not seeing Charles, he grew uneasy and went to the fisherman’s. (没有看到Charles，他变得uneasy，就去了渔夫家。)”可推知，罗斯先生没有看到儿子Charles，会感到不安和担心。划线词uneasy与worried同义，意为“担忧的，不安的”。故选C项。 34．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Charles said, “I can teach you that though I’m a little boy.”(查尔斯说：“虽然我是个小男孩，但我可以教你。”)”可知，Charles自告奋勇去教Joe读书和写字，由此推知，他是一个善良的孩子。故选B项。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章主要讲述了八岁的男孩Charles Rose教一个贫穷的渔夫的儿子Joe读书和写字的故事，所以“The Young Teacher (小老师)”是最佳标题。故选B项。 5.(2023-2024学年上学期.天津耀华中学.高一期中) On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown.Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You’re nervous and that’s okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied (否认) it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends. On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn’t think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right. Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging. Since then, I’ve been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn’t much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions. It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out-of-class activities because you’ll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best,even if it isn’t straight A’s. Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school. 39．What does the underlined phrase “rise to” mean in the passage? A．stand for B．deal with C．turn to D．lift up 40．After his first week at school, the author . A．adapted to the new school little by little B．was still not used to the schedule in high school C．found high school not so challenging as he had imagined D．ran for monitor of his class against three other students 41．According to the passage, the secret of the author’s success lies mainly in . A．making more friends B．getting more A’s at school C．being who he really is D．joining in out-of-class activities 39．B 40．A 41．C 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要介绍的是作者高中第一天感到害怕，到后来逐渐适应新的学校，从中感悟出一个道理：成功在于做真实的自己。 39．词义猜测题。根据画线短语前的“On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be?(第一天，我每节课都迟到，经常迷路。学校就像一个我无法解开的谜题。这一整年都是这样吗?)”可知，在开学的第一天遇到了很多的困难，结合下文中的“especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! (尤其是背着一个我几乎举不起来的大背包。它太大了，我可以用它把人打晕!)”可知，作者认为自己背着一个能把人打晕的背包，自己几乎举不起来，由此可知，作者认为自己不能“处理”这些困难，所以该单词的意思与“处理”意义相近。故选B项。 40．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad.(尽管我很害怕，但在第一周之后，我终于把我的日程安排好了。除了几次从楼梯上摔下来被人嘲笑之外，高中生活还算不错。)”可知，在第一周之后，作者安排好了自己的日程，感觉高中生活还算是不错，由此可知，在一周之后，作者应该是逐渐的适应了高中的生活。故选A项。 41．推理判断题。根据尾段“Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.(最重要的是，做你自己，不管你是一个“傻瓜”，一个运动员，还是一个低年级学生。不要试图假装成另一个人。现在你知道高中真正的秘密了吧。)”可知，作者认为无论你是谁，都要坚持做自己，不要假装成另一个人，并且在最后与读者互动“你知道高中的秘密了吧”，由此可知，作者成功的秘密在于坚持做自己。故选C项。 6. (2023-2024学年上学期.天津耀华中学.高一期中) How I Turned to Be Optimistic I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt＇s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times. ” My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 46．How did the author get to know America? A．From her relatives. B．From her mother. C．From Books and pictures. D．From radio programs. 47．Upon leaving for America the author felt ________. A．confused B．excited C．worried D．amazed 48．For the first two years in New York, the author ________. A．often lost her way B．did not think about her future C．studied in three different schools D．got on well with her stepfather 49．What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4? A．She worked as a translator. B．She attended a lot of job interviews. C．She paid telephone bills for her family. D．She helped her family with her English. 50．The author believes that ________. A．her future will be free from troubles B．it is difficult to learn to become patient C．there are more good things than bad things D．good things will happen if one keeps trying 46．C 47．B 48．C 49．D 50．D 【分析】这是一篇记述文。文中作者主要介绍了自己移民到美国的经历，由此告诉我们如果一个人不断地努力，好事一定会发生。 46．细节理解题。根据第二段的“the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.”可知，作者在去美国之前是通过书籍和图片来了解美国的。故选C。 47．推理判断题。根据第二段中The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.可知，作者要离开永远不会回来的国家那时几乎不在作者的头脑里，所以说明作者对去美国是兴奋的，故选B。 48．细节理解题。根据第二段的“For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.”可知，在纽约的前两年，作者在三个不同的学校学习过。故选C。 49．细节理解题。根据第四段“since I knew English better than everyone else at home.

(2022-2023学年上学期.天津市部分区.高一期中) Yesterday after work, the boss told me I was fired. When I walked along a riverbed sadly, I suddenly realized it was New Year’s Day, a day to start afresh. I passed by a man holding his son, one or two years old. The baby’s face was in pure joy, and his innocent eyes were full of wonder. The simple sweetness of the baby made me moved. Walking on, I saw a young couple repairing their bicycle. They smiled at me and said, “Happy New Year!” I smiled and wished them the same. It was a simple thing, but for a moment it brought me a sudden joy. I kept walking, enjoying the cheerful singing of birds. With people around laughing out loud, an old woman immersed herself in her sewing. She didn’t seem either happy or sad. A feeling of timeless peace flowed through me and all fear of what the future might bring disappeared. I thanked her in my heart, and moved on. As I reached home, I was filled with great thanks and hope for life, which took me a long time to find. Actually, happiness could be simple and easy.

With jus700 meters to go, Alistair Brownlee was in third place and his younger brother Jonny, was in the lead. Alistair pushed himself towards the finish line in the burning heat, but as he came round the corner, he saw his brother about to fall onto the track Alistair had to choose -brotherly love, or a chance to win the race? For Alistair, the choice was clear. His brother was in trouble. He had to help. Alistair ran towards Jonny, caught him and started pulling him towards the finish line. Alistair then pushed his brother over the line. The move put Jonny in second place and Alistair himself in third. It was an unexpected end to the race, but Alistair did not want to discuss it with the media. He just wanted to see his younger brother who had been rushed to the medical area. The Brownlee brothers have been doing triathlons since they were children “Obviously, when your older brother is doing it, you think it’s a cool thing to do,’says Jonny. Alistair says that they encourage each other as much as they can where they train. Despite argument s over “stupid things” now and then, Alistair agrees than having a brother is an advantage. “Throughout my entire life, I’ve had my brother trying to beat me at everything I do. It has been a fantastic driving force.” Watched by millions, the ending to the race has varied opinions: should the brothers have been disqualified or highly praised for their actions? But for Alistair his decision was easy to explain: “Mum wouldn’t have been happy if I’d left Jonny behind.” At that moment, he was no longer an athlete aiming for a me dal - he was just a brother. 36．Why did Alistair get third place only? A．Because he fell onto the track accidentally. B．Because he was overtaken by another athlete. C．Because he stopped to give his brother a hand.

B．Alistair was only worried about his brother’s health condition. C．The end result led to an unexpected discussion among the audience.

It has been a fantastic driving force.”(尽管时不时会有关于“愚蠢的事情”的争论，但阿利斯泰尔同意有个兄弟是一种优势。“在我的一生中，我的兄弟总是试图在我做的每件事上打败我。这是一种神奇的推动力。”)”故可推知，乔尼把他哥哥看作是一种激励和鼓励。故选A项。 39．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Watched by millions, the ending to the race has varied opinions: should the brothers have been disqualified or highly praised for their actions?(数百万人观看了这场比赛，人们对比赛的结局有不同的看法：兄弟俩是应该被取消资格，还是应该因为他们的行为受到高度赞扬？)”可知，人们对于阿利斯泰尔的行为有着不同的看法。故选D项。 40．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But for Alistair his decision was easy to explain: “Mum wouldn’t have been happy if I’d left Jonny behind.” At that moment, he was no longer an athlete aiming for a me dal - he was just a brother.(但对阿利斯泰尔来说，他的决定很容易解释：“如果我丢下乔尼，妈妈不会高兴的。”在那一刻，他不再是一个追求冠军的运动员——他只是一个兄弟)”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了对阿利斯泰尔·布朗利来说，亲情比赢得铁人三项决赛更重要。故选B项。 2.

(2023-2024学年上学期.天津市和平区天津市第一中学.高一期中) The African grey parrot’s ability to talk and mimic sounds makes it a charming companion. African grey owners often report that their greys oftentimes talk in context and can understand their people’s emotions. The African grey parrot is not just a top talker — this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives it the name “The Einstein s of the bird world”. The bird is medium-sized, dusty-looking and almost pigeon-like. It has a bright red tail, intelligent orange eyes, and a stunning scalloped (扇形的) pattern to its feathers. Its diet in the wild consists mostly of nuts, seeds, fruits, and leafy matter. At home, African greys need plenty of toys that challenge their intelligence, such as food searching and puzzle toys. Nutri-Berries by Lafeber Company are a perfect choice, which, with a balance of grains, seeds and other nutrients in the shape of a berry, encourages African greys to hold, bite off, and even do other things, just as they do in the wild. African greys seem especially affected by stress and disturbing noise in their environment and can be put more at ease by placing one corner of the cage against a wall compared to in the middle of a room. African grey parrots are more likely to suffer from lack of vitamin A/beta-carotene, and therefore benefit from eating vegetables high in beta-carotene, such as cooked sweet potato and fresh kale. Lack of vitamin D is another concern, especially for greys on a poor diet. Offering a balanced, pill-shaped diet,such as Nutri-Berries, helps prevent vitamin and mineral shortage. 23．Why are African grey parrots called “The Einstein s of the bird world”? A．Due to their talking ability. B．Because of their brain size. C．Owing to their rich emotions. D．On account of their intelligence. 24．What can “Nutri-Berries” probably be? A．A type of round fruit. B．Puzzle toys for birds. C．A brand of bird food. D．Wild intelligence games. 25．What is the characteristic of African grey parrots? A．They are smart and love to have fun. B．They are dusty-looking with blue eyes. C．They seldom get ill despite the lack of vitamin. D．They prefer to stay in the middle of a room. 26．Where can we most probably find the text? A．In a travel guide. B．In science fiction. C．On a shopping website. D．In a wildlife magazine. 23．D 24．C 25．A 26．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。非洲灰鹦鹉说话和模仿声音的能力使它成为一只迷人的伴侣。它们能够理解人们的情绪，也以其极端的智慧而闻名，被人们称为“鸟类世界的爱因斯坦”。 23．细节理解题。根据第一段“The African grey parrot is not just a top talker--this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives it the name “The Einstein s of the bird world”.(非洲灰鹦鹉不仅是一只能说会道的鸟——这种鸟也以其极端的智慧而闻名，这使它被称为“鸟类世界的爱因斯坦”)”可知，这种鸟被称为“鸟类世界的爱因斯坦”的原因是由于它们的智商。故选D项。 24．细节理解题。根据第三段“Nutri-Berries by Lafeber Company are a perfect choice, which, with a balance of grains, seeds and other nutrients in the shape of a berry, encourages African greys to hold, bite off, and even do other things, just as they do in the wild.(Lafeber公司的Nutri-Berries是一个完美的选择，它将谷物、种子和其他营养成分均衡地制作成浆果的形状，鼓励非洲灰鹦鹉像在野外一样抓住、咬掉甚至做其他事情)”可知，Nutri-Berries是非洲灰鹦鹉的一种食物品牌，故选C项。 25．推理判断题。根据第三段“At home, African greys need plenty of toys that challenge their intelligence, such as food searching and puzzle toys.(在家里，非洲灰鹦鹉需要大量挑战智力的玩具，比如食物搜索和益智玩具)”可知，非洲灰鹦鹉需要大量的挑战智力的玩具，从中可推理出非洲灰鹦鹉很聪明，而且喜欢娱乐，故选A项。 26．推理判断题。根据第一段“African grey owners often report that their greys oftentimes talk in context and can understand their people’s emotions.(非洲灰鹦鹉的主人经常报告说，他们的灰鹦鹉经常在上下文中交谈，能够理解人们的情绪)”以及“The African grey parrot is not just a top talker — this bird is also known for its extreme intelligence, which gives it the name “The Einstein s of the bird world”.(非洲灰鹦鹉不仅是一只能说会道的鸟——这种鸟也以其极端的智慧而闻名，这使它被称为“鸟类世界的爱因斯坦”)”可知，本文主要讲的是非洲灰鹦鹉以其极端的智慧而闻名，同时还讲了灰鹦鹉的生活习性，可推理出本文最有可能在野生动物杂志上看到，故选D项。 4.(2023-2024学年上学期.天津市红桥区.高一期中) My dad, Greg Newman, had wanted to be a race car driver, but things didn’t work out for him. So I guess having a son who could become a race car driver was the next best thing. Don’t get me wrong — Dad didn’t push me into racing. In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream. So he took the racing away from me. I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realized that racing was what I loved. At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that’s really where it started for us. Back then, Dad coached me. He would stick out (伸出) his foot in the path of the race car, and then tell me to exactly hit his foot. By repeating this again and again, Dad believed that I would be faster and sharper on the race track. Dad worked really long hours at his car repair business to make money so that I could race each weekend. I can remember that every night before he turned off the lights in the garage, Dad would tell me: “Don’t forget to kiss your race car good night.” He was trying to teach me that if I show respect, it’s returned. He wanted me to show thankfulness and respect for my race car and for all the hard work that we and many others had put into the dream. My dad, my mom and my sister gave up a lot of things to help me race. For us, there was no better moment than winning the 50th running of the Daytona 500 in 2018. That evening in February 2018, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane (车道), he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug. 41．Why did Greg Newman stop his son to race when his son was 10 years old? A．Because he thought racing was dangerous. B．Because he worried that his son didn’t like racing. C．Because he didn’t want his son to fail like he did. D．Because he couldn’t afford the money. 42．Greg Newman did all the following things to support his son’s dream EXCEPT ________. A．training his son to race B．working hard to make money C．buying his son a mini racing car D．changing his job as a race car driver 43．Why did Greg Newman let his son hit his foot? A．To improve his son’s skill. B．To help his son to be braver. C．To have fun with his son. D．To make his son more careful. 44．Greg Newman asked his son to kiss his race car good night to ________. A．get help from his family B．treat the race car as his son C．feel grateful that he could follow his dream D．develop a close relationship with his race car 45．In the 50th running of the Daytona 500, Greg Newman couldn’t say anything because he was ________. A．disappointed B．surprised C．sad D．excited 41．B 42．D 43．A 44．C 45．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了父子俩共同努力实现赛车梦的故事。 41．细节理解题。由第一段中的“In fact, when I was about 10 years old, my dad was afraid that driving a car wasn’t my dream. So he took the racing away from me. I wasn’t very happy with that decision. It wasn’t long before Dad realized that racing was what I loved. (事实上，当我大约10岁的时候，我爸爸担心开车不是我的梦想。所以他把赛车从我身边夺走了。我对那个决定不太满意。没过多久爸爸就意识到我喜欢赛车)”可知，因为爸爸担心儿子不喜欢赛车，所以在他儿子10岁时阻止儿子赛车。故选B项。 42．细节理解题。由第二段中的“At four, Dad bought me my first Quarter Midget (袖珍赛车) and that’s really where it started for us.

That evening in February 2018, I knew I had gotten a good push. I could hear the excitement. My father couldn’t speak a word, and when he got to Victory Lane (车道), he nearly knocked me over and gave me such a big hug.

At the age of four, I started speech lessons because even I could not speak well enough to be understood. First grade was a struggle. I not only had difficulty speaking, but I was expected to learn to read and I just couldn’t do it. My parents grew more and more frustrated. They bought books and offered great rewards if I could read one of them from start to finish to them. Well, with my speech problems and now my reading problems, I did not like to do reading and so refused to do it whenever possible. Second grade was not much better. It was in the second grade that the teacher decided that I needed special education. I remember the days of taking the physical exams. However, after all that, they decided that I did not qualify for special education. It was in third grade that a new school was built close to where I lived. I remember going there with my parents and helping to get the school ready so that we could transfer (转学). It was a happy day that we started school at Vandalia. However, things did not get better as my parent expected. It was now time for fifth grade. Mrs. Wake field was my teacher, and if ever there was a teacher that deserved a gold star, it was her. She did not make me feel upset. Instead, she helped me in so many ways and built my self-confidence so that I actually did believe that I could do something special. And that is just what I did. For the past 22 years, I have been a fifth grade teacher. Because of Mrs. Wake field’s influence in my life, I am now encouraging students who have had difficulties in their lives to believe that they can overcome and become someone. I have won a large number of awards but I know that all of them belong to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and challenged me to be all that I could be. I still have a class picture of her with her fifth grade class hanging on the wall of my office, encouraging other teachers to reach out to their students. 41．What does the underlined phrase “amount to much” mean in Paragraph l? A．get rich. B．get successful. C．get recovered. D．become healthy. 42．From the second paragraph we know that ________. A．the writer’s parents lost confidence in the writer completely B．the writer’s speech problems didn’t stop him from reading C．the writer’s parents tried many things to encourage him D．the writer couldn’t improve his speech ability from reading 43．What can we infer from the passage? A．The writer’s parents believed he could get improved in his speech ability. B．The new school was not far away from where they lived. C．The teachers in the new school were gold stars D．The writer himself wanted to transfer to a new school. 44．In which grade did the turning point in writer’s life appear? A．In Grade Two.

C．Confidence is very important in one’s life. D．Different teaching methods work the same. 【答案】41．B 42．C 43．A 44．D 45．C 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者小的时候不被人们所看好，但是在上五年级时韦克菲尔德太太成为作者的老师，她帮助作者建立了自信，这成为了作者生活的转折点。 41．词句猜测题。根据第一段“Before I even started school, people felt that I was not going to amount to much. At the age of four, I started speech lessons because even I could not speak well enough to be understood. (甚至在我开始上学之前，人们就觉得我不会amount to much。四岁时，我开始上演讲课，因为连我自己都说不好，别人都听不懂。)”可知，作者小时候表达能力不行，别人不能理解他说的话，因此人们认为他不会成功。A.get rich(发财)；B. get successful(获得成功)；C.get recovered(恢复)；D. become healthy(变得健康)。故选B项。   42．细节理解题。根据第二段“First grade was a struggle. I not only had difficulty speaking, but I was expected to learn to read and I just couldn’t do it. My parents grew more and more frustrated.

I have won a large number of awards but I know that all of them belong to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and challenged me to be all that I could be.

(2022-2023学年上学期.天津市河东区.高一期中) Charles Ⅴ (1500-1558), Holy Roman Emperor, once said, “I speak Spanish to God, Italian to women, French to men and German to my horse.” I first heard the Spanish language in 2017 while lining up to ride the London Eye. Two boys were murmuring (嘟囔) something in the sweetest language. I asked them what the language is, and they told me it was Spanish. In the fall of the same year, I selected Spanish as a compulsory foreign language course throughout the next six years in my junior and senior high schools. I had a burning desire and persistence to learn Spanish well. My interest and passion helped me succeed. Spanish trills were quite difficult for me at the very beginning. I repeatedly tried to figure out where to place my tongue to pronounce perfect trills. There is no easy short-term solution to master a foreign language. Spanish conjugations (动词变位) are much more complicated than English ones, so I practiced more. The cycle of learning, forgetting and memorizing continued. Reaching milestones has always been important. I set up several goals for learning Spanish in 12 semesters. For example, I drew up a plan last winter to pass the DELE B2 test before graduating from my high school. I usually split up my tasks into six sections — vocabulary, grammar, reading, listening, writing and oral practices. I regularly read Spanish books, recited(背诵) words and phrases, and kept on doing grammar exercises. I did listening exercises every day while showering or bathing. I wrote emails or letters to my Spanish friends as practice and took all opportunities to talk with my Spanish teachers and people I met online to enhance my oral Spanish. I believe that success only comes with practice, patience and persistence. There’s no end to learning! 39．Why did the author begin to learn Spanish? A．He was attracted by the beauty of Spanish. B．His friends encouraged him to learn it. C．It was a compulsory course at his school. D．He admired Holy Roman Emperor Charles Ⅴ. 40．What was hard for him to learn at the beginning? A．Listening skills. B．Spanish vocabulary. C．Spanish conjugation. D．Spanish trills. 41．What is the second-to-last paragraph mainly about? A．His short-term learning plans. B．His goals for learning Spanish. C．The ways he practiced Spanish. D．The ways he prepared for the DELE B2 test. 42．Which of the following best describes the author? A．Creative and hardworking. B．Patient and modest. C．Organized and determined. D．Outgoing and humorous. 39．A 40．D 41．C 42．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是作者如何喜欢上西班牙语以及学习西班牙语的情况。 39．推理判断题。根据第二段“Two boys were murmuring (嘟囔) something in the sweetest language. I asked them what the language is, and they told me it was Spanish.(两个男孩用最甜美的语言嘟囔着什么。我问他们是什么语言，他们告诉我是西班牙语。)”可知，作者把西班牙语看作是最甜美的语言，由此可推断作者决定学习西班牙语是因为他被西班牙语的甜美所吸引。故选A项。 40．细节理解题。根据第五段第一句话“Spanish trills were quite difficult for me at the very beginning.(西班牙语的颤音一开始对我来说非常困难。)”可知，作者在一开始学习西班牙语时比较困难的是西班牙语中的颤音。故选D项。 41．主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段中的第一句话“I usually split up my tasks into six sections—vocabulary, grammar, reading, listening, writing and oral practices.(我通常将我的任务分为六个部分——词汇，语法，阅读，听力，写作和口语练习。)”可知，这一段主要讲的是作者学习西班牙语的具体方法。故选C项。 42．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段的“Reaching milestones has always been important. I set up several goals for learning Spanish in 12 semesters.(实现里程碑一直很重要。我设定了几个在12个学期学习西班牙语的目标。)”以及倒数第二段中的“I usually split up my tasks into six sections—vocabulary, grammar, reading, listening, writing and oral practices.(我通常将我的任务分为六个部分——词汇，语法，阅读，听力，写作和口语练习。)”可推断作者是一个有组织性的人；再结合最后一段“I believe that success only comes with practice, patience and persistence.(我相信成功需要实践、耐心和毅力。)”可知作者是个有耐心有毅力的人。 故选C项。 7.(2022-2023学年上学期.天津市河西区.高一期中) I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other. War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder. The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, clearning up and holding on. 31．What made Kate angry one evening? A．She couldn’t find her books. B．She heard the author shouting loud. C．She got the news that her grandma was ill. D．She saw the author’s shoes beneath her bed. 32．The author tidied up the room most probably because ______.

Why under my bed!’(很快，我听到她尖叫：‘把你的鞋拿走！为什么在我的床下！’)”可知，Kate很生气是因为作者把鞋放到了她的床下。故选D项。 32．推理判断题。根据第四段的句子“All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart. Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t noticed Kate had sat up.(突然，一股温暖的同情之情涌上我的心头。慢慢地，我收起铅笔，收回书本，整理床铺，把袜子清走，扫地，甚至打扫了她的那边。 我太投入工作了，甚至没有注意到凯特已经坐起来了)”可以推出，作者收拾房间主要是为了表示她对Kate的关心。故选C项。 33．推理判断题。根据第一段的句子“I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier.(我从来不是很整洁的人，而我的室友凯特却非常有条理。 她的东西各有各的位置，而我的东西总是藏在某个地方。她甚至给每样东西都贴标签。 我总是寻找一切。随着时间的推移，凯特变得更整洁，而我变得更混乱)”可知，作者是通过讲述她和Kate的不同来展开第一段的内容的。故选B项。 34．词义猜测题。根据上一句话“From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill.(从她最后的谈话中，我马上就知道她奶奶病得很重)”和划线词前面的内容“When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers（挂断电话后，她很快就钻进被窝里）”可知，在得知奶奶病重后，Kate肯定是钻进被窝里哭了。故划线词意为“哭泣”。故选B项。 35．主旨大意题。作者通过生活中的经历悟出了和室友相处的关键：让步、整理房间和坚持下去。所以用D项“Learning to Be Roommates(学会做室友)”作为本文的题目与文章内容相符。故选D项。 ( 10 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
