The 15-year-old girl from Waterbury could become a well-known artist one day. For now, though, part of her love for painting is the chance to help her dad, who’s ill. “It’s kind of like an ache-a heartbreak,” she said. “You never want to see one of your loved ones get hurt. ” Her father is suffering from type-one diabetes (糖尿病) and is having trouble affording his mounting medical bills. “I’m suffering from heart disease, and blindness from my diabetes,” her father said. Angie has decided to put her talent as an artist to good use. On Saturday, Sept. 23 from noon to 4 p. m., she’s hosting her own one day art exhibition (展览) to sell her paintings and raise money mainly for her father’s medical bills. “Angie’s Art Exhibition” will be at the North End Recreation Centre, located at 262 North Main Street in Waterbury. She’s also using it to help the Fairfield Animal Shelter. Angie loves animals—you see that on many of her paintings. This isn’t the first time Angie has put her paintbrush to good use helping others. Her mother tells News 8 that Angie has also used her work to help her community: a local family who lost their father, and children who needed school supplies. “She has an angelic heart. If there were more people like her in the world, there wouldn’t be so much chaos (混乱) and hate. I just look up to her and say ‘I’m very proud of you,’ ”her father said. “My dad’s a great person. Though he goes through this, he still loves me and supports me in any way he can. It makes me feel important, “she said. 24. What is the main reason why Angie is hosting her own art exhibition? A. To show her talent as an artist. B. To raise money to treat her father. C. To sell her paintings to art collectors. D. To support the Fairfield Animal Shelter. 25.

Study first and play afterwards. C. The company of parents is important to children’s development. D. Determination and creativity can be powerful tools to help those in need. 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了Angie为了帮助自己的亲人和社区的人们，用自己的画作积极筹集善款的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“On Saturday, Sept. 23 from noon to 4 p. m., she’s hosting her own one day art exhibition (展览) to sell her paintings and raise money mainly for her father’s medical bills. (9月23日（周六）中午到下午4点，她将举办自己的为期一天的艺术展，出售自己的画作，主要为她父亲的医药费筹集资金。)”可知，Angie举办画展是为了筹钱给父亲支付医药费。故选B项。 25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段““She has an angelic heart. If there were more people like her in the world, there wouldn’t be so much chaos and hate. I just look up to her and say ‘I’m very proud of you,’ ”her father said. (“她有一颗天使般的心。如果世界上有更多像她这样的人，就不会有这么多的混乱和仇恨。我只是看着她说，‘我为你感到骄傲，’”她父亲说。)”可知，父亲为女儿感到骄傲，把她视作天使。故选B项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“A talented teen painter in Waterbury is helping her very sick father with her love of art. The 15-year-old girl from Waterbury could become a well-known artist one day. (沃特伯里一位才华横溢的少女画家用她对艺术的热爱帮助她病重的父亲。这个来自沃特伯里的15岁女孩有一天会成为一名著名的艺术家。)”及文章第三，四段Angie帮助他人的描述和文章第五段爸爸的看法“She has an angelic heart. If there were more people like her in the world, there wouldn’t be so much chaos and hate. (她有一颗天使般的心。如果世界上有更多像她这样的人，就不会有这么多的混乱和仇恨)”可知，Angie是有艺术天赋并关爱他人的。故选A项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文尤其是第四段内容“This isn’t the first time Angie has put her paintbrush to good use helping others. Her mother tells News 8 that Angie has also used her work to help her community: a local family who lost their father, and children who needed school supplies. (这不是安吉第一次用她的画笔来帮助别人了。她的母亲告诉News 8，安吉还用她的工作来帮助她的社区：一个失去父亲的当地家庭，以及需要学习用品的孩子。)”可推知，故事想要告诉我们：决心和创造力可以成为帮助那些需要帮助的人的有力工具。故选D项。 C People who have trouble walking or moving around often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece now offer a new solution called Seatrac, which allows people in wheelchairs to get into the water on their own. Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving walkway that can smoothly carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea, the person can either remain in the chair, enjoying the water; or go for a swim. The chair can be controlled from a long distance. When the person is ready to get out of the water, the Seatrac system (系统) brings the chair back to the top of the walkway. Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece. The idea for it came when one of the inventors, Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair. The friend expressed his enjoyment of the sea but disliked being carried into the ocean like “a bag of potatoes”. Fotiou realized there must be a way to make it easier for wheelchair users to get into the water. He worked with his partners to design the system, finally forming a company called TOBEA to build and sell the system. TOBEA works on making the system simple to put in place and easy to control. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach Seatrac. The system is solar-powered (太阳能) and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out. The Seatrac system can be easily packed up and stored when the swimming season ends. Greece has decided to open 287 beaches for people with disabilities. 140 beaches have set up the system and the remaining 147 will build the system in the future. The new Seatrac service is being provided for free to help attract more tourists to the country. TOBEA will offer a website showing where beaches with the special service can be found. Thanks to Seatrac, more and more people who use wheelchairs will have the chance to cool down with a swim in the sea. 28. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Why Seatrac is well received. B. How Seatrac works. C. Why Seatrac needs hand control. D. How Seatrac is developed. 29. What can we know about the Seatrac system? A. It’s expensive to use. B. It can be used all year round. C. It’s environmentally friendly. D. It requires a large storage space. 30. What do the numbers in the last paragraph show? A. The new service is promising. B. The system is highly praised by the old. C. The government has made much money. D. The practice is being copied around the world. 31. What can be the best title for the text? A. Fotiou: An Inventor Helping the Disabled B. Seatrac: Helping Wheelchair Users Enjoy the Sea. C. TOBEA Is a Famous Factory Producing Wheelchairs D. Greece Has Built Moving Walkways for the Disabled 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一项新发明Seatrac系统，可以帮助轮椅使用者享受大海。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段前四句话“Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving walkway that can smoothly carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea, the person can either remain in the chair, enjoying the water; or go for a swim. The chair can be controlled from a long distance. (Seatrac基本上是一把位于移动走道上的椅子，可以顺利地将残疾人带入大海。一旦进入大海，人要么呆在椅子上，享受水；或者去游泳。这把椅子可以远距离控制)”可知，第二段主要介绍了Seatrac系统是如何工作的。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段第三句话“TOBEA works on making the system simple to put in place and easy to control. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach Seatrac. The system is solar-powered (太阳能) and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out. The Seatrac system can be easily packed up and stored when the swimming season ends.(TOBEA致力于使系统易于安装和控制。一条木制走道可以让轮椅使用者到达Seatrac。该系统由太阳能供电，即使停电也能继续运行。Seatrac系统可以在游泳季节结束时轻松打包和储存)”可知，Seatrac有太阳能供电，即使停电也能继续运行。由此可推知，该系统是环保的。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句话“Greece has decided to open 287 beaches for people with disabilities. 140 beaches have set up the system and the remaining 147 will build the system in the future. (希腊决定为残疾人开放287个海滩。140个海滩已经建立了该系统，其余147个海滩将在未来建立该系统)”可知，已经有很多的海滩使用了Seatrac系统，而且还有许多的海滩将来要建立该系统。由此可推知，该系统是很有前景的。故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一项新发明Seatrac系统，可以帮助轮椅使用者享受大海。所以“Seatrac：帮助轮椅使用者享受大海。”适合作本文的标题。故选B。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Life can be busy or stressful at times.

The 15-year-old girl from Waterbury could become a well-known artist one day. For now, though, part of her love for painting is the chance to help her dad, who’s ill. “It’s kind of like an ache-a heartbreak,” she said. “You never want to see one of your loved ones get hurt. ” Her father is suffering from type-one diabetes (糖尿病) and is having trouble affording his mounting medical bills. “I’m suffering from heart disease, and blindness from my diabetes,” her father said. Angie has decided to put her talent as an artist to good use. On Saturday Sept. 23 from noon to 4 p. m., she’s hosting her own one day art exhibition (展览) to sell her paintings and raise money mainly for her father’s medical bills. “Angie’s Art Exhibition” will be at the North End Recreation Centre, located at 262 North Main Street in Waterbury. She’s also using it to help the Fairfield Animal Shelter. Angie loves animals—you see that on many of her paintings. This isn’t the first time Angie has put her paintbrush to good use helping others. Her mother tells News 8 that Angie has also used her work to help her community: a local family who lost their father, and children who needed school supplies. “She has an angelic heart. If there were more people like her in the world, there wouldn’t be so much chaos (混乱) and hate. I just look up to her and say ‘I’m very proud of you,’ ”her father said. “My dad’s a great person. Though he goes through this, he still loves me and supports me in any way he can. It makes me feel important, “she said. 24. What is the main reason why Angie is hosting her own art exhibition? A. To show her talent as an artist. B. To raise money to treat her father. C. To sell her paintings to art collectors. D. To support the Fairfield Animal Shelter. 25. What is Angie’s father’s opinion of her? A. He expects her to become a world-famous artist. B. He takes pride in her and considers her to be an angel. C. He is disappointed in her for not concentrating on study. D. He thinks she should focus on helping him instead of others. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Angie? A. Artistic and caring. B. Humorous and kind. C. Independent and proud. D. Knowledgeable and helpful. 27. What does the story intend to tell us? A. It’s never too late to learn. B. Study first and play afterwards. C. The company of parents is important to children’s development. D. Determination and creativity can be powerful tools to help those in need. C People who have trouble walking or moving around often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece now offer a new solution called Seatrac, which allows people in wheelchairs to get into the water on their own. Seatrac is basically a chair on a moving walkway that can smoothly carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea the person can either remain in the chair, enjoying the water; or go for a swim. The chair can be controlled from a long distance. When the person is ready to get out of the water, the Seatrac system (系统) brings the chair back to the top of the walkway. Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece. The idea for it came when one of the inventors, Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair. The friend expressed his enjoyment of the sea but disliked being carried into the ocean like “a bag of potatoes”. Fotiou realized there must be a way to make it easier for wheelchair users to get into the water. He worked with his partners to design the system, finally forming a company called TOBEA to build and sell the system. TOBEA works on making the system simple to put in place and easy to control. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach Seatrac. The system is solar-powered (太阳能) and can continue to run even if the electricity goes out. The Seatrac system can be easily packed up and stored when the swimming season ends. Greece has decided to open 287 beaches for people with disabilities. 140 beaches have set up the system and the remaining 147 will build the system in the future.
