She licked his face and hands to keep him awake. “Kelsey kept barking but never left my side,” Bob recalled. “She kept me warm. I knew I couldn’t give up and that it was my choice to stay alive.” Bob spent 20 hours in the freezing cold. When he finally lost consciousness, his dog kept barking.

Inspired by her mother’s work as a nurse, Ruby accompanied her mother to the nursing homes during the summer and has developed a close bond with the elderly residents. One day, Ruby noticed a resident named Pearl looking sad while staring out of a window. When she asked what was wrong, Pearl explained that she had seen her dog being taken away, and she didn’t know when she would see her beloved pet again. It broke Ruby’s heart, and she decided to take action. She began asking the residents what three things they wanted most in the world. To her surprise, their requests were simple—chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, and pants that fit properly. Ruby and her mother used their own money to achieve the wishes of around 100 residents within three months. Soon, they started receiving donations from the kind-hearted people of Harrison. Encouraged by the overwhelming response, they set up a GoFundMe page called “Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents” to collect $5,000. They reached their goal within a month. When GoFundMe recognized Ruby as a Kid Hero and shared her story worldwide, donations poured in. In just 24 hours, they raised $20,000, and within five months, the total surpassed $250,000. With these funds, they were able to grant(准予)more creative wishes, such as creating a man cave for one resident with a Walkman and snacks, and providing financial assistance for another resident to attend an out-of-state wedding. Motivated by their success, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents became a nonprofit organization and expanded nationwide. Their new goal is to set up a shared laptop in at least one nursing home in each state.

Like many troops, 506 sells popcorn each fall to raise money. In 2019, while still a Cub Scout, Jonathan watched as kids who’d made $1,800 or more in sales walked across a stage to receive a Lego set as a prize. “I really want that Lego set,” he said. The next year, he successfully got his Legos. However, Troop 506 not only provides Lego sets but also contributes a percentage of their sales in the form of gift cards for Scouting-related activities. Encouraged, Jonathan spent the next few years developing a surprising sale skill. The year 2021 saw him achieve impressive sales of $46,193.75, making him a top seller in the nation and bringing him $5,000 worth in Amazon cards, He might have spent it on himself, but he had other ideas. Popcorn season closes in late November, and the holidays were on his mind—particularly the stories his father had told him about his own days in foster care. “They don’t really have Christmas,” Jonathan said. With $5,000, he could bring Christmas to a lot of kids. With the help of his mother, he made his way to the social services offices. Anyone else might have simply sent in the money and felt they’d done enough. Not Jonathan. He requested information about each kid, including age, gender and interests.

In fact, the 28-year-old lives a very different existence from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over £42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on. Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than £250,000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as “effective altruists”. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away. Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. “The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year,” he says. Instead, he could “stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world”. He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn’t as luxurious as some of the people he works with. “I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat.£42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,” he says. 12．How much money does Grayden spend on donation every year? A．Less than £42,000. B．Over £100.000. C．£50,000. D．Any income over £42,000. 13．What may an “effective altruist” do according to the text? A．Donate to impactful charities. B．Make more money to enjoy lives. C．Create a good public image. D．Enter a teaching profession. 14．Why did Grayden decide to donate money but not work in the charity sector? A．To access his inner life. B．To create a stronger effect. C．To give away all of his salary. D．To be a teacher at a school. 15．What can be inferred about Grayden from the text?

My friends had helped me celebrate my 31st birthday in the basement apartment, where I lived. Earlier in the day I had prepared for the unlikely event of a flood. We are about a third of a mile from the banks of the Ahr River. It had been raining buckets that week and the government had sent out a flood warning, though not for where I was. Still, I’d placed sandbags on the floor outside my garden door and put electronics on tables. “Silly bro!” My friends laughed at me for doing that, but I thought, why take a chance? As I drifted off to sleep, I was awakened by the sound of rushing water, as if I were lying beside a waterfall. When I got off the bed, I was shocked that cold water was rising fast. In darkness, I grabbed my cellphone and turned on the flashlight. When I stepped out of the bedroom, I saw water shooting through the gaps of the door. I began to panic. I knew I had to get out—fast! In bare feet, I started to make my way to the only escape: the door that led upstairs to the main floor. Finally I made it to the door and tried several times to-pull it open even just a little bit, but the rushing water shut it again. I looked around for anything I could use to keep it open. There in the corner was a coat rack (架子). I took it and, once again, opened the door, throwing the coat rack between the door and the frame (门框) to keep the door from shutting. Finally, I managed to make a gap just wide enough to squeeze (挤) through and make it into the hallway. I leaped on to the stairs and ran outside. I stood there in the darkness, wet through. What was once a lovely street was now a waterscape, with floating ruins instead of people and cars. The river had drowned (淹没) the neighborhood! 16．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2imply? A．Better safe than sorry. B．It never rains but it pours. C．A lost chance never returns. D．A friend in need is a friend indeed. 17．What was the author doing when water flooded in? A．Celebrating his birthday. B．Sleeping in the basement. C．Placing sandbags by the door. D．Playing with electronic devices. 18．Which of the following might be the most difficult for the author during the escape? A．Making his way to the door. B．Finding a coat rack. C．Keeping the door from shutting. D．Squeezing through the gap. 19．How did the author feel when standing on the street? A．Sad and shocked. B．Annoyed and anxious. C．Surprised and disappointed.

Two hundred audience members, including the mayor of Reno, look to the stage. Dozens of actors break out into the first number of The Lion King. But this is not your typical production. The gifted cast is made up of homeless children living at the Volunteers of America family shelter in Reno. The children have been given a chance to live their dreams onstage, thanks to volunteer acting coach Nasya Mancini. “I see so much of myself in these kids,” says Nasya. “I tell them their current circumstance doesn’t have to be their destiny (命运) . If they are determined, they can do anything they want.” Determination is something Nasya knows all about. She was born prematurely and was given little chance of survival. But Nasya kept fighting. Her very name means “miracle” in Hebrew. Nasya was small, but quickly proved that her talents were as big as her will to survive. She started dancing at two. By six she’d been spotted by an acting coach, who encouraged her parents to enroll her in drama classes. “There was something about being onstage,” Nasya says. “It made my spirit come alive.” She decided that she was going to be an actor. However, her enthusiasm didn’t sit well with some of her schoolmates. They teased (嘲) her, “You’re a shrimp. You’re not even pretty.” Nasya came home in tears. Her mother hugged her and told her to ignore it. By high school, Nasya was winning awards in theater competitions. She also provided community service by teaching drama to the children at the shelter. Nasya wanted the kids at the shelter to discover the confidence that acting could give. The best way to do that, she decided, was to put on a big play. The production was a hit. The kids took several curtain calls. Donations to the shelter rolled in. Nasya reminds the kids of something she knows with every part of her spirit to be true: “Believe in yourself. The world is your stage.” 20．What was special about the play The Lion King?

These days, there are four small companions: three dogs and an eight-year-old brown Burmese cat called Soo. I love them all dearly and they are the best company possible. They greet me warmly each time I come home, never complain and never get angry or argue with me. I have, though, discovered recently, after all these years of never being without a pet, there are unexpected risks of living with animals. This year, I’ve spent four weeks in hospital, thanks to the cat. I felt such a fool telling the doctors that the terrible bruising (擦伤) and growing lump (肿块) in the middle of my right foot was due to my cat misbehaving. It was a Sunday night. I’d had friends for lunch and was in the kitchen clearing up. I’d emptied and washed a heavy glass ashtray (烟灰缸), which I’d placed on the side. Soo knows she’s not allowed on the kitchen surfaces. Yet, she jumped up, marched towards the ashtray, and knocked it off. I like to think she didn’t know my foot was directly in her line of fire, but it was. I cried with pain. I couldn’t see any obvious wound and the ashtray survived the fall. I thought nothing more of it. I’ve never seen such bruising as appeared the next day, but I carried on. I had work to do. It wasn’t too painful and surely the bruising would go away eventually. I carried on like that for a couple of weeks until a visit from my son, who thought the lump had grown and could be infected, so demanded I take a trip to the hospital. As for forgiveness, there’s nothing to forgive. It’s my fault the ashtray was too close to the edge. There’ll still be treats and toys prepared for my pets under the Christmas tree. 24．What has the writer found recently about having pets? A．Pets are the best company possible. B．Pets may bring danger to their owners. C．Pets never complain or argue with people. D．Dogs and cats are great pets in people’s life. 25．What was the result of the accident?

A．My son took my wound more seriously. B．Soo didn’t knock off the ashtray on purpose. C．It happened when I was cooking in the kitchen. D．I took a trip to the hospital right after the accident. 27．Which can best describe the writer’s attitude towards pets? A．Love them all to bits. B．Hate their misbehaviors.

Every night, he would smile, hand me the comb and say: “Help Daddy clean it, OK?” At age five this task brought me such joy. I would excitedly turn the tap on, and then brush the comb with a used toothbrush as hard as I could. Satisfied with my job, I would proudly return it to Dad. He would smile at me, and place the comb on top of his wallet. About two years later, Dad left his job and started his own business. That was when things started to change. Dad’s business wasn’t doing so well, and our stable life started getting shaky. He didn’t come home as much as he used to. And when he did, it was always late and I’d already be in bed. I started to get mad. Why didn’t he listen to Mum and just stick to his old job? Over the years, I stopped spending my nights with him. Now 28, I’ve already got a job. Dad’s business has also started to be on track. Things are better. Yet the uncomfortable silence between us persisted. Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home early. As I helped him carry his bags into his study, he said. “Hey, would you like to help me clean my comb? It’s been a while: since I last cleaned it.” I looked at him a while, then took the comb and headed to the sink. As I cleaned the comb, it hit me then: why, as a child, helping my dad clean his comb was such a joy. That routine meant my dad was home early to spend the evening with Mum and I. It meant he would watch TV with us or playa few videogames with me. It meant a happy and loving family. I pass the clean comb back to Dad. He looks at it and smiles. But this time, I notice something different. My dad has aged. He has wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiles, yet his smile is still heartwarming. The smile of a father who just wants a good life for his family. Dad carefully places his comb on top of his wallet. The same old jade green comb. I guess some things never change. And for that, I’m glad. 32．As a child, how did the author feel about cleaning the comb? A．She did it in a casual way. B．She took it seriously. C．She thought it burdensome. D．She understood the significance of it. 33．Why was the author unhappy with her father’s quitting his job? A．Her routine with her father changed. B．Her father grew indifferent to mum and her.

B．The return of the former sweet happy nights C．The realization of her father’s unchanged love. D．The awareness of her father’s aging appearance. （十） （23-24高一上·浙江杭州·期末）At 67, Joyce Faulkner thought she was looking for a holiday. Her husband, Jim, had recently died and exploring possible house swaps on the Home Exchange website felt less painful. In the end, it was not a vacation Faulkner found but a job. She left her home in Edinburgh to become mother’s help to seven-year-old twins in Varese, Italy. “It’s halfway crazy,” she says. A house swap she was interested in didn’t work out, but the owner, Rachele, asked: “‘Do you know anyone who might help me with the children?’ I wrote back and said: ‘Tell me what that involves!’ She wrote me a little list, and I said: ‘I could do that!’ We seemed to believe in each other.” Two months later, when Faulkner reached Varese, “the dad, Andrea, was walking towards me with the children hiding behind his legs, kind of shy, thinking: ‘Who is this woman in a long black coat?’ I don’t think it was quite Mary Poppins, but the atmosphere was immediately warm and friendly.” Eighteen months on, Faulkner’s job no longer feels like a job. “I just feel like part of the family.” They joke: “You think you’re going back to Scotland? No, you’re staying here!” She gives English lessons, helps with the housework, meets the children from school, plays chess or table tennis with them, and takes them to the park. “It never feels like work,” she says. “It has been absolutely the perfect match.” Faulkner’s son, Steven, who lives in London, has visited her and they have cycled around the northern Italian lakes. She feels no more distant than when she lived in Edinburgh. “You have to take the opportunity when it presents itself,” Jim once said. “I’ll be 70 in January, but in my head, I’m 30. I still feel the same person, I have the same enthusiasm for life, the same interest in people and things. In that sense, I wish I had another 70,” Faulkner jokes. 35．Why did Joyce Faulkner search the Home Exchange website? A．To hunt for a job. B．To buy a house in Italy. C．To explore holiday resorts. D．To find a holiday home for exchange. 36．What probably caused Faulkner to be hired by Rachele? A．Good luck. B．Mutal trust. C．Common interests. D．First impression. 37．What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4? A．Faulkner feels less close to her son B．Faulkner feels quite at home while babysitting in Italy. C．Faulkner returned to her old business despite her advanced years. D．Faulkner was thought of as a typical baby-sitter at the first meeting. 38．Which of the following can best describe Joyce Faulkner? A．Caring and outgoing. B．Strict and responsible. C．Devoted and passionate. D．Humorous and independent. 试卷第1页，共3页 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题02阅读理解之记叙文 （一） （23-24高一上·浙江杭州·期末）A five-year-old dog named Kelsey has been praised as a hero for helping to save the life of her owner who slipped in the snow and broke his neck. The man, Bob, was alone when he left his Michigan farmhouse on New Year’s Eve to collect firewood. Expecting a journey of only several meters, Bob was wearing just long johns(衬裤), a shirt and slippers when he went outside, although the temperature was around -4℃.

By the next morning, my voice was gone and I couldn’t yell for help, but Kelsey didn’t stop barking.(但我的Kelsey来了。第二天早上，我的声音消失了，我无法大声呼救，但Kelsey没有停止吠叫。)”以及第六段中的“When he finally lost consciousness, his dog kept barking. Finally, hearing the barking, Bob’s neighbor discovered him at 6: 30 pm on New Year’s Day and called the emergency services at once.(当他最终失去意识时，他的狗不停地吠叫。最后，Bob的邻居听到了吠叫声，在新年下午6:30发现了他，并立即拨打了急救电话。)”可推测出，Kelsey一直吠叫是为了寻求帮助。故选D。 3．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A five-year-old dog named Kelsey has been praised as a hero for helping to save the life of her owner who slipped in the snow and broke his neck.(一只名叫Kelsey的五岁小狗因帮助救了主人的命而被誉为英雄，主人在雪地里滑倒并摔断了脖子。)”、第五段中的“Kelsey’s companion kept him warm by lying on top of him. She licked his face and hands to keep him awake.(Kelsey陪伴着他，趴在他身上给他保暖。她舔了舔他的脸和手，让他保持清醒。)”以及最后一段中的“When Bob arrived in hospital, his body temperature was below 21℃. However, doctors were surprised to find that he didn’t have any frostbite(冻疮). They believed it was because of Kelsey’s determination to keep him warm.(然而，医生惊讶地发现他没有冻伤。他们认为这是因为Kelsey决心给他保暖。)”可知，本文主要讲述一只小狗在寒冷的雪地救了主人，她在寒冷的新年前夕给受伤的主人保暖，使得主人免遭不测。由此可推测出，C项“一个冬夜里的温暖”最适合作本文标题。故选C。 （二） （23-24高一上·浙江丽水·期末）Eleven-year-old Ruby has a unique hobby—making wishes come true for nursing home residents in Harrison, Arkansas. Inspired by her mother’s work as a nurse, Ruby accompanied her mother to the nursing homes during the summer and has developed a close bond with the elderly residents. One day, Ruby noticed a resident named Pearl looking sad while staring out of a window. When she asked what was wrong, Pearl explained that she had seen her dog being taken away, and she didn’t know when she would see her beloved pet again. It broke Ruby’s heart, and she decided to take action. She began asking the residents what three things they wanted most in the world. To her surprise, their requests were simple—chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, and pants that fit properly. Ruby and her mother used their own money to achieve the wishes of around 100 residents within three months. Soon, they started receiving donations from the kind-hearted people of Harrison. Encouraged by the overwhelming response, they set up a GoFundMe page called “Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents” to collect $5,000. They reached their goal within a month. When GoFundMe recognized Ruby as a Kid Hero and shared her story worldwide, donations poured in. In just 24 hours, they raised $20,000, and within five months, the total surpassed $250,000. With these funds, they were able to grant(准予)more creative wishes, such as creating a man cave for one resident with a Walkman and snacks, and providing financial assistance for another resident to attend an out-of-state wedding. Motivated by their success, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents became a nonprofit organization and expanded nationwide. Their new goal is to set up a shared laptop in at least one nursing home in each state. Ruby’s passion for kindness drives her to continue her efforts, and her acts of kindness serve as a reminder that even small gestures can make a big difference in someone’s life. 4．What inspired Ruby to achieve nursing home residents’ wishes? A．Her affection for dogs. B．Her enthusiasm for fundraising. C．Pearl’s request for three wishes. D．Pearl’s story about her pet dog. 5．How did Ruby and her mother firstly get the money to satisfy the residents’ desires? A．They got the fund. B．They sold their belongings. C．They used their personal money. D．They got donations from the nursing home. 6．What was one of the creative wishes granted by the project? A．Building a new nursing home.

(一天，Rubyl注意到一位名叫 Pearl的居民在凝视窗外时看起来很悲伤。当她问怎么了时， Pearl解释说，她看到自己的狗被带走了，她不知道什么时候才能再次见到她心爱的宠物。这伤透了Ruby的心，她决定采取行动。她开始问居民们，世界上他们最想要的三样东西是什么。)”可知，Pearl关于她的宠物狗的故事启发了Ruby去实现疗养院居民的愿望。故选D项。 5．细节理解题。由文章第三段“Ruby and her mother used their own money to achieve the wishes of around 100 residents within three months.(Ruby和她的母亲用自己的钱在三个月内实现了大约100名居民的愿望。)”可知，Ruby和她的母亲最开始用自己的钱来实现居民的愿望。故选C项。 6．细节理解题。由文章第四段“With these funds, they were able to grant(准予)more creative wishes, such as creating a man cave for one resident with a Walkman and snacks, and providing financial assistance for another resident to attend an out-of-state wedding.(有了这些资金，他们能够实现更具创造性的愿望，例如为一位居民创建一个舒适的房间，配有音乐播放器和小吃，并为另一位居民参加州外婚礼提供经济援助。)”可知，为居住者建立一个舒适的房间，配有音乐播放器和小吃是该项目实现的创造性愿望之一。故选D项。 7．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ruby’s passion for kindness drives her to continue her efforts, and her acts of kindness serve as a reminder that even small gestures can make a big difference in someone’s life.(Ruby对善良的热情驱使她继续努力，她的善举提醒她，即使是小小的举动也会对一个人的生活产生巨大的影响。)”以及上文可推知，Ruby是一个善良且乐于助人的人，所以她的行为是关心他人的。故选B项。 （三） （23-24高一上·浙江嘉兴·期末）The 13-year-old Life Scout named Jonathan in Troop 506 is pioneering new ways to perform acts of kindness. Like many troops, 506 sells popcorn each fall to raise money. In 2019, while still a Cub Scout, Jonathan watched as kids who’d made $1,800 or more in sales walked across a stage to receive a Lego set as a prize. “I really want that Lego set,” he said. The next year, he successfully got his Legos. However, Troop 506 not only provides Lego sets but also contributes a percentage of their sales in the form of gift cards for Scouting-related activities. Encouraged, Jonathan spent the next few years developing a surprising sale skill. The year 2021 saw him achieve impressive sales of $46,193.75, making him a top seller in the nation and bringing him $5,000 worth in Amazon cards, He might have spent it on himself, but he had other ideas. Popcorn season closes in late November, and the holidays were on his mind—particularly the stories his father had told him about his own days in foster care. “They don’t really have Christmas,” Jonathan said. With $5,000, he could bring Christmas to a lot of kids. With the help of his mother, he made his way to the social services offices. Anyone else might have simply sent in the money and felt they’d done enough. Not Jonathan. He requested information about each kid, including age, gender and interests. He changed from a big seller to a big spender, personally choosing gifts for dozens of kids, like a Santa. “The most worthwhile thing,” he said, “is to try to put happiness into the lives of others.” 8．What encouraged Jonathan to improve his selling techniques? A．The Lego set to be received as a prize. B．The money to be raised by selling popcorn. C．The cards that could be gained to buy goods.

C．To compare lifestyles of two different generations. D．To provide information about Jonathan’s childhood. 10．Which of the following can best describe Jonathan? A．Outgoing and selfless. B．Brave and smart. C．Thoughtful and caring. D．Gifted and honest. 11．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．A Scout Helps in Social Service Offices B．A Scout Sells a Record Amount of Popcorn C．A Scout Changes from a Seller to a Spender D．A Scout Plays Santa for Kids in Foster Care 【答案】8．C 9．A 10．C 11．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了13岁的乔纳森为寄养中心的孩子们买礼物过圣诞节的善举。 8．细节理解题。根据第三段“However, Troop 506 not only provides Lego sets but also contributes a percentage of their sales in the form of gift cards for Scouting-related activities. Encouraged, Jonathan spent the next few years developing a surprising sale skill.(然而，Troop 506 不仅提供乐高套装，而且还以礼品卡的形式为与童子军相关的活动贡献一定比例的销售额。受到鼓舞，乔纳森在接下来的几年里发展了一种令人惊讶的销售技巧。)”可知，可以用来购买礼品卡鼓励乔纳森提高他的销售技巧。故选C。 9．推理判断题。根据第四段“The year 2021 saw him achieve impressive sales of $46,193.75, making him a top seller in the nation and bringing him $5,000 worth in Amazon cards, He might have spent it on himself, but he had other ideas. Popcorn season closes in late November, and the holidays were on his mind—particularly the stories his father had told him about his own days in foster care.(2021年，他取得了46193.75美元的惊人销售额，使他成为全国最畅销的卖家，并为他带来了价值5000美元的亚马逊卡。他可以把这些钱花在自己身上，但他有其他的想法。爆米花的季节在11月下旬结束，假期一直萦绕在他的脑海里，尤其是他父亲告诉他的关于他自己在寄养中心的故事)”可推知，第4段提到了乔纳森的父亲是为了解释为什么乔纳森有其他想法。故选A。 10．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段““They don’t really have Christmas,” Jonathan said. With $5,000, he could bring Christmas to a lot of kids.(“他们没有真正的圣诞节，”乔纳森说。用5000美元，他可以给很多孩子带来圣诞节)”以及倒数第二段“He requested information about each kid, including age, gender and interests. He changed from a big seller to a big spender, personally choosing gifts for dozens of kids, like a Santa.(他询问了每个孩子的信息，包括年龄、性别和兴趣。他从一个大卖家变成了一个大消费者，像圣诞老人一样亲自为几十个孩子挑选礼物)”可知，乔纳森用自己的钱给寄养中心的孩子买礼物，还询问了他们的信息，说明了他体贴且有爱心。故选C。 11．主旨大意题。根据第一段“The 13-year-old Life Scout named Jonathan in Troop 506 is pioneering new ways to perform acts of kindness.(13岁的乔纳森是506部队的童子军，他开创了做好事的新方式)”结合文章主要讲述了13岁的乔纳森将自己的销售额用来给寄养中心的孩子们买礼物过圣诞节的故事。可推断，D选项“童子军为寄养儿童扮演圣诞老人”最符合文章主旨。故选D。 （四） （23-24高一上·浙江杭州·期末）Working for a big company in London on a salary (薪水)of over £100,000, you might expect Grayden Reece-Smith to have a luxurious (奢侈)lifestyle, going on expensive holidays or driving a sports car around south London, where he lives. In fact, the 28-year-old lives a very different existence from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over £42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on. Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than £250,000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as “effective altruists”. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away. Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. “The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year,” he says. Instead, he could “stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world”. He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn’t as luxurious as some of the people he works with. “I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat.£42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,” he says. 12．How much money does Grayden spend on donation every year? A．Less than £42,000. B．Over £100.000. C．£50,000. D．Any income over £42,000. 13．What may an “effective altruist” do according to the text? A．Donate to impactful charities. B．Make more money to enjoy lives. C．Create a good public image. D．Enter a teaching profession. 14．Why did Grayden decide to donate money but not work in the charity sector? A．To access his inner life. B．To create a stronger effect. C．To give away all of his salary. D．To be a teacher at a school. 15．What can be inferred about Grayden from the text? A．He leads an expensive lifestyle. B．He buys food produced by supermarkets. C．He lives in a four-bedroom house. D．He balances his life and donation. 【答案】12．D 13．A 14．B 15．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Grayden Reece-Smith每年除了留下 £42,000薪水生活外，会把剩余的薪水捐给慈善机构。 12．细节理解题。由文章第一段“He gives away everything he earns over £42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.(他捐出了他收入超过4.2万英镑的一切——他认为4.2万英镑已经可以让他过上舒适的生活。)”可知，Grayden会捐赠出任何超过42000英镑的收入。故选D项。 13．细节理解题。由文章第二段“He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as ‘effective altruists’. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact （影响）. (他是越来越多被称为‘有效利他主义者’的年轻专业人士中的一员。有效的利他主义者通常会定期向他们认为会产生巨大影响的慈善机构捐款。)”可知，利他主义者会向有影响力的慈善机构捐款。故选A项。 14．细节理解题。由文章第三段“Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. (Reece Smith大学毕业后曾考虑在慈善部门工作，但他认为自己可以通过捐出大部分工资来做出更大的改变。)”可知， Grayden认为捐款会产生更大的效果。故选B项。 15．推理判断题。由文章最后一段“I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat.£42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,(我通常不买超市品牌的食品，但我没有汽车。其他拿我薪水的人可能会有更大的房子。我的一些同事有四居室的房子，但我们只买了我们需要的——一套两居室的公寓。42000英镑已经足够生活和储蓄了)”可知，Grayden能很好的平衡自己的生活和捐赠。故选D项。 （五） （23-24高一上·浙江金华·期末）I finally climbed into bed at 1: 20 in the morning. My friends had helped me celebrate my 31st birthday in the basement apartment, where I lived. Earlier in the day I had prepared for the unlikely event of a flood. We are about a third of a mile from the banks of the Ahr River. It had been raining buckets that week and the government had sent out a flood warning, though not for where I was. Still, I’d placed sandbags on the floor outside my garden door and put electronics on tables. “Silly bro!” My friends laughed at me for doing that, but I thought, why take a chance? As I drifted off to sleep, I was awakened by the sound of rushing water, as if I were lying beside a waterfall. When I got off the bed, I was shocked that cold water was rising fast. In darkness, I grabbed my cellphone and turned on the flashlight. When I stepped out of the bedroom, I saw water shooting through the gaps of the door. I began to panic. I knew I had to get out—fast! In bare feet, I started to make my way to the only escape: the door that led upstairs to the main floor. Finally I made it to the door and tried several times to-pull it open even just a little bit, but the rushing water shut it again. I looked around for anything I could use to keep it open. There in the corner was a coat rack (架子). I took it and, once again, opened the door, throwing the coat rack between the door and the frame (门框) to keep the door from shutting. Finally, I managed to make a gap just wide enough to squeeze (挤) through and make it into the hallway. I leaped on to the stairs and ran outside. I stood there in the darkness, wet through. What was once a lovely street was now a waterscape, with floating ruins instead of people and cars. The river had drowned (淹没) the neighborhood! 16．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2imply? A．Better safe than sorry. B．It never rains but it pours. C．A lost chance never returns. D．A friend in need is a friend indeed. 17．What was the author doing when water flooded in? A．Celebrating his birthday. B．Sleeping in the basement. C．Placing sandbags by the door. D．Playing with electronic devices. 18．Which of the following might be the most difficult for the author during the escape? A．Making his way to the door. B．Finding a coat rack. C．Keeping the door from shutting. D．Squeezing through the gap. 19．How did the author feel when standing on the street? A．Sad and shocked. B．Annoyed and anxious. C．Surprised and disappointed. D．Puzzled and awkward. 【答案】16．A 17．B 18．C 19．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的一次脱险经历。由于连下大雨，使得河流决堤，爆发了洪水，殃及到作者所居住的区域。尽管作者提前做好了“抗洪”准备，但是，洪水的破坏力还是使得作者的家，以及该区域一片狼藉。幸运的是，作者逃生并幸存了下来。 16．词句猜测题。根据画线句以及前一句“Still, I’d placed sandbags on the floor outside my garden door and put electronics on tables. “Silly bro!” My friends laughed at me for doing that, but I thought, why take a chance? (尽管如此，我还是在花园门外的地板上放了沙袋，把电子设备放在桌子上。“傻弟弟！”我的朋友们嘲笑我那么做，但我想，为什么要冒这个险？)”可知，作者做好了迎接洪水的准备，还被朋友嘲笑，but表示转折，因此推断作者认为，这样做应该是更安全，防患于未然，因此画线句表示“安全总比后悔好”。故选A。 17．细节理解题。根据第三段的“As I drifted off to sleep, I was awakened by the sound of rushing water, as if I were lying beside a waterfall.(就在我迷迷糊糊睡着的时候，我被哗哗的水声惊醒了，仿佛我正躺在瀑布旁边。)”和第四段的“In bare feet, I started to make my way to the only escape: the door that led upstairs to the main floor. (光着脚，我开始向唯一的出口走去：通往楼上主楼的那扇门。)”可知，当洪水涌入的时候，作者正睡在地下室。故选B。 18．推理判断题。根据第四段的“Finally I made it to the door and tried several times to-pull it open even just a little bit, but the rushing water shut it again. I looked around for anything I could use to keep it open. There in the corner was a coat rack (架子). I took it and, once again, opened the door, throwing the coat rack between the door and the frame (门框) to keep the door from shutting. Finally, I managed to make a gap just wide enough to squeeze (挤) through and make it into the hallway.(最后，我终于走到门口，试了好几次，想把它拉开一点，但湍急的水流又把它关上了。我四处寻找能让它继续开着的东西。角落里有一个衣架。我拿过它，再一次打开门，把衣架扔在门和镜框之间，以防门关上。最后，我设法弄出了一个刚好能挤进去进入走廊的缺口。)”可知，在逃生过程中，对于作者来说最困难的是保持门不要关上。故选C。 19．推理判断题。根据最后一段的“What was once a lovely street was now a waterscape, with floating ruins instead of people and cars. The river had drowned (淹没) the neighborhood!(曾经令人愉快的街道现在变成了一片汪洋，到处都是漂浮的废墟，而不是人和车。洪水淹没了附近的人！)”可知，作者站在曾经令人愉快的大街上，洪水淹没了一切，因此推断作者此时的心情是悲哀和震惊的。故选A。 （六） （23-24高一上·浙江台州·期末）At six o’clock sharp the curtain rises at Southside Cultural Center, in Reno. Two hundred audience members, including the mayor of Reno, look to the stage. Dozens of actors break out into the first number of The Lion King. But this is not your typical production. The gifted cast is made up of homeless children living at the Volunteers of America family shelter in Reno. The children have been given a chance to live their dreams onstage, thanks to volunteer acting coach Nasya Mancini. “I see so much of myself in these kids,” says Nasya. “I tell them their current circumstance doesn’t have to be their destiny (命运) . If they are determined, they can do anything they want.” Determination is something Nasya knows all about. She was born prematurely and was given little chance of survival. But Nasya kept fighting. Her very name means “miracle” in Hebrew. Nasya was small, but quickly proved that her talents were as big as her will to survive. She started dancing at two. By six she’d been spotted by an acting coach, who encouraged her parents to enroll her in drama classes. “There was something about being onstage,” Nasya says. “It made my spirit come alive.” She decided that she was going to be an actor. However, her enthusiasm didn’t sit well with some of her schoolmates. They teased (嘲) her, “You’re a shrimp. You’re not even pretty.” Nasya came home in tears. Her mother hugged her and told her to ignore it. By high school, Nasya was winning awards in theater competitions. She also provided community service by teaching drama to the children at the shelter. Nasya wanted the kids at the shelter to discover the confidence that acting could give. The best way to do that, she decided, was to put on a big play. The production was a hit. The kids took several curtain calls. Donations to the shelter rolled in.

She started dancing at two.(纳西娅虽然个子很小，但很快就证明了她的才华和她的生存意志一样强大。她两岁开始跳舞。)”可知，Nasya很有才华；根据倒数第二段中“She also provided community service by teaching drama to the children at the shelter. Nasya wanted the kids at the shelter to discover the confidence that acting could give.(她还通过向庇护所的孩子们教授戏剧来提供社区服务。纳西娅希望庇护所的孩子们能够发现表演可以带来的自信。)”可知，Nasya很关心他人，故选B。 22．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Nasya wanted the kids at the shelter to discover the confidence that acting could give.

These days, there are four small companions: three dogs and an eight-year-old brown Burmese cat called Soo. I love them all dearly and they are the best company possible. They greet me warmly each time I come home, never complain and never get angry or argue with me. I have, though, discovered recently, after all these years of never being without a pet, there are unexpected risks of living with animals. This year, I’ve spent four weeks in hospital, thanks to the cat. I felt such a fool telling the doctors that the terrible bruising (擦伤) and growing lump (肿块) in the middle of my right foot was due to my cat misbehaving. It was a Sunday night. I’d had friends for lunch and was in the kitchen clearing up. I’d emptied and washed a heavy glass ashtray (烟灰缸), which I’d placed on the side. Soo knows she’s not allowed on the kitchen surfaces. Yet, she jumped up, marched towards the ashtray, and knocked it off. I like to think she didn’t know my foot was directly in her line of fire, but it was. I cried with pain. I couldn’t see any obvious wound and the ashtray survived the fall. I thought nothing more of it. I’ve never seen such bruising as appeared the next day, but I carried on. I had work to do. It wasn’t too painful and surely the bruising would go away eventually. I carried on like that for a couple of weeks until a visit from my son, who thought the lump had grown and could be infected, so demanded I take a trip to the hospital. As for forgiveness, there’s nothing to forgive. It’s my fault the ashtray was too close to the edge. There’ll still be treats and toys prepared for my pets under the Christmas tree. 24．What has the writer found recently about having pets? A．Pets are the best company possible. B．Pets may bring danger to their owners. C．Pets never complain or argue with people. D．Dogs and cats are great pets in people’s life. 25．What was the result of the accident? A．I was grateful to my cat Soo. B．I was made fun of by doctors. C．I only suffered some bruising. D．I stayed in hospital for several weeks. 26．What do we know about the accident? A．My son took my wound more seriously. B．Soo didn’t knock off the ashtray on purpose. C．It happened when I was cooking in the kitchen. D．I took a trip to the hospital right after the accident. 27．Which can best describe the writer’s attitude towards pets? A．Love them all to bits. B．Hate their misbehaviors. C．Understand their feelings. D．Complain about their company. 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．A 27．A 【导语】本文是记叙文。作者很爱自己的宠物，然而作者最近发现与动物一起生活却存在意想不到的风险。文章主要讲述了作者的宠物猫打翻了一个烟灰缸，导致作者受伤，在医院住了几个星期，但是作者并没有怪罪猫。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段中“I have, though, discovered recently, after all these years of never being without a pet, there are unexpected risks of living with animals.(不过，我最近发现，这么多年我一直没有养宠物，与动物一起生活却存在意想不到的风险。)”可知，作者最近发现，宠物可能会给主人带来危险。故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段中“This year, I’ve spent four weeks in hospital, thanks to the cat. (今年，由于那只猫，我在医院住了四个星期。)”可知，事故的结果是作者在医院住了几个星期。故选D。 26．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“I carried on like that for a couple of weeks until a visit from my son, who thought the lump had grown and could be infected, so demanded I take a trip to the hospital.(我就这样坚持了几个星期，直到我儿子来看我，他认为肿块已经变大并且可能被感染，所以要求我去医院。)”可知，作者发生事故后，儿子更认真地对待作者的伤口。故选A。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段“As for forgiveness, there’s nothing to forgive. It’s my fault the ashtray was too close to the edge. There’ll still be treats and toys prepared for my pets under the Christmas tree.(至于原谅，没有什么可以原谅的。烟灰缸太靠近边缘是我的错。圣诞树下仍然会为我的宠物准备零食和玩具。)”可知，作者认为这次事故不是宠物猫导致的，是作者自己的错误，这说明作者并没有怪罪自己的猫，由此可推知，作者很爱自己的宠物，故选A。 （八） （23-24高一上·浙江温州·期末）In the ever-changing world of women’s artistic gymnastics, there has been a gymnast for more than three decades: Oksana Chusovitina. The 48-year-old had said with certainty that her final competition would be the Tokyo 2020 Games. With no fans in the stands to honor her legendary career (职业生涯) , judges, coaches and other athletes did their best to give her a party worthy of all she’d given the sport. After she thanked them through tears in her eyes, she told media that was her swansong. However, just a few months after the Tokyo Olympics, Chusovitina said that she would return to training, dreaming of one final medal at a major competition —the Asian Games—for Uzbekistan. “I just can’t finish my career without a medal for my motherland,” she said on her Instagram story.

The historic eight-time Olympian has started her ninth trip to the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Dad has a jade green comb. Every night, he would smile, hand me the comb and say: “Help Daddy clean it, OK?” At age five this task brought me such joy. I would excitedly turn the tap on, and then brush the comb with a used toothbrush as hard as I could. Satisfied with my job, I would proudly return it to Dad. He would smile at me, and place the comb on top of his wallet. About two years later, Dad left his job and started his own business. That was when things started to change. Dad’s business wasn’t doing so well, and our stable life started getting shaky. He didn’t come home as much as he used to. And when he did, it was always late and I’d already be in bed. I started to get mad. Why didn’t he listen to Mum and just stick to his old job? Over the years, I stopped spending my nights with him. Now 28, I’ve already got a job. Dad’s business has also started to be on track. Things are better. Yet the uncomfortable silence between us persisted. Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home early. As I helped him carry his bags into his study, he said. “Hey, would you like to help me clean my comb? It’s been a while: since I last cleaned it.” I looked at him a while, then took the comb and headed to the sink. As I cleaned the comb, it hit me then: why, as a child, helping my dad clean his comb was such a joy. That routine meant my dad was home early to spend the evening with Mum and I. It meant he would watch TV with us or playa few videogames with me. It meant a happy and loving family. I pass the clean comb back to Dad. He looks at it and smiles. But this time, I notice something different. My dad has aged. He has wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiles, yet his smile is still heartwarming. The smile of a father who just wants a good life for his family. Dad carefully places his comb on top of his wallet. The same old jade green comb. I guess some things never change. And for that, I’m glad. 32．As a child, how did the author feel about cleaning the comb? A．She did it in a casual way. B．She took it seriously. C．She thought it burdensome. D．She understood the significance of it. 33．Why was the author unhappy with her father’s quitting his job? A．Her routine with her father changed. B．Her father grew indifferent to mum and her. C．Her father’s new business was not doing well. D．Her mother was disappointed with his decisions. 34．What’s the turning point of the author’s attitude? A．The boom of her father’s new business. B．The return of the former sweet happy nights C．The realization of her father’s unchanged love. D．The awareness of her father’s aging appearance. 【答案】32．B 33．A 34．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文以一把梳子为线索，讲述了作者小时候喜欢在晚上给父亲清理梳子，后来爸爸想要让家庭生活变得更好，因此辞职创业，和作者的关系也疏远了，后来作者长大了找到了一份工作最终理解了父亲。 32．推理判断题。由文章第一段“At age five this task brought me such joy.

Her husband, Jim, had recently died and exploring possible house swaps on the Home Exchange website felt less painful. In the end, it was not a vacation Faulkner found but a job. She left her home in Edinburgh to become mother’s help to seven-year-old twins in Varese, Italy. “It’s halfway crazy,” she says. A house swap she was interested in didn’t work out, but the owner, Rachele, asked: “‘Do you know anyone who might help me with the children?’ I wrote back and said: ‘Tell me what that involves!’ She wrote me a little list, and I said: ‘I could do that!’ We seemed to believe in each other.” Two months later, when Faulkner reached Varese, “the dad, Andrea, was walking towards me with the children hiding behind his legs, kind of shy, thinking: ‘Who is this woman in a long black coat?’ I don’t think it was quite Mary Poppins, but the atmosphere was immediately warm and friendly.” Eighteen months on, Faulkner’s job no longer feels like a job. “I just feel like part of the family.” They joke: “You think you’re going back to Scotland? No, you’re staying here!” She gives English lessons, helps with the housework, meets the children from school, plays chess or table tennis with them, and takes them to the park. “It never feels like work,” she says. “It has been absolutely the perfect match.” Faulkner’s son, Steven, who lives in London, has visited her and they have cycled around the northern Italian lakes. She feels no more distant than when she lived in Edinburgh. “You have to take the opportunity when it presents itself,” Jim once said. “I’ll be 70 in January, but in my head, I’m 30. I still feel the same person, I have the same enthusiasm for life, the same interest in people and things. In that sense, I wish I had another 70,” Faulkner jokes. 35．Why did Joyce Faulkner search the Home Exchange website? A．To hunt for a job. B．To buy a house in Italy. C．To explore holiday resorts. D．To find a holiday home for exchange. 36．What probably caused Faulkner to be hired by Rachele? A．Good luck. B．Mutal trust. C．Common interests. D．First impression. 37．What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4? A．Faulkner feels less close to her son B．Faulkner feels quite at home while babysitting in Italy. C．Faulkner returned to her old business despite her advanced years. D．Faulkner was thought of as a typical baby-sitter at the first meeting. 38．Which of the following can best describe Joyce Faulkner? A．Caring and outgoing. B．Strict and responsible. C．Devoted and passionate. D．Humorous and independent. 【答案】35．D 36．B 37．B 38．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。英国67岁的Joyce Faulkner在她丈夫死后在网上搜寻换房式的度假旅游, 结果却找到了一份在意大利照看小孩的工作。尽管年事已高, 但她对生活依然充满激情, 生活又有了新的开始。 35．细节理解题。根据第一段中“At 67, Joyce Faulkner thought she was looking for a holiday.
