A Timeless (永恒的) Gift D. A homeless old man 【答案】61. B 62. C 63. D 64. A 65. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了作者和一位无家可归的老人之间发生的温暖故事。 【61题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Whenever I passed by, he said ‘hello’ cheerfully, and I always said it back. I gave him some change I had.”可知，每次我经过时，他总愉快地跟我说“你好”，我也总是回应他，可知老人总是跟作者打招呼是因为作者对这位老人很友好。故选B。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I asked him why and he looked down and told me that the battery (电池) died so he threw it away.”可知，手表的电池没电了，所以老人把它扔掉了。故选C。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He didn’t even notice it until I had walked on”可知，直到作者走开，老人才注意到手表。故选D。 【64题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“When I bent down to put some change in his cup, I also dropped in the watch.”可知，当作者弯下腰在他的杯子里放了一些零钱时，应该是还放进去了那块手表，可推知“dropped”的意思是“放”。故选A。 【65题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了作者和一位无家可归的老人之间发生的故事，作者送给老人一块手表作为礼物，因此“一份永恒的礼物”符合最佳标题。故选C。 C Once, a circle (圆) lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But it was incomplete, so it could only roll (滚动) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with worms. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly (完美地). The circle put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole with nothing missing. It was so happy and began to roll. Now that (既然) it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It got to know how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled away slowly. Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better. He will never know someone loves him or someone is giving him something he has always wanted or never had. We couldn’t be perfect, but we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive (宽恕), kind enough to share happiness with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us and then we can always live a wonderful life. 66. Which of the following is true about the circle? A. It always rolled slowly. B. It talked with the flowers and the sunshine along the way. C. It found many different pieces easily but they didn’t fit. D It didn’t find any flowers or sunshine along the way. 67. The circle rolled very slowly at first because it ________. A. spent much time talking to worms B. wanted to enjoy the sunshine C. was looking for its missing piece D. lost a piece of its own 68. After it was whole again and rolled fast, the circle ________. A. felt unhappy B. could see more beautiful flowers C. could talk to any worm D. could go everywhere 69. If a man owns everything, he will be ________ in some ways according to the passage. A. perfect B. poor C. happy D. strong 70. The story mainly tells us that ________. A. nobody loves us if we give nothing B. a man who has everything is the happiest C. losing something may not be a bad thing sometimes D. we are not whole when we lose something 【答案】66. C 67. D 68. A 69. B 70. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇童话故事，文章讲述了一个圆寻找自己缺失部分的故事。 【66题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit”可知，它找到了许多不同的碎片，但没有一个适合它。故选C。 【67题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But it was incomplete, so it could only roll (滚动) very slowly.”可知，它是不完整的，所以只能慢慢地滚动。故选D。 【68题详解】 细节理解题。根据“…when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad”可知，当它滚地很快时，它感到如此悲伤。故选A。 【69题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways.”可知，一个拥有一切的人在某些方面是一个贫穷的人。故选B。 【70题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章讲述了一个不完整的圆变完整以后反而不开心的故事，根据“Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something.”可知，有时候我们在失去某些东西时才会变得完美，故本文主要想告诉我们不完整不一定是坏事。故选C。 五、信息还原（共5小题，每道题2分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一个选项为多于选项。 How can I become a better person? ____71____ As students, we spend most of our time studying.

In the photos, while they are working on the boat on Dongting Lake, lots of fish are jumping into the fish bin (鱼舱). Dongting Lake is the second freshwater (淡水) lake in China, it’s home to nearly 400 kinds of fishes. But in the past, people threw litter and factories put waste water into the lake. Even worse, a large number of fish were caught by fishermen. Because of pollution and overfishing (过度捕捞), the Yangtze River was in great danger. For example, the Chinese paddlefish (中华白鲟) disappeared 2 years ago. Daming used to make a living by fishing near Dongting Lake. However, life was gradually becoming difficult for Daming and other fishermen. The more times they went to fish, the fewer fish they could get. In January, 2020, the government called for a 10-year fishing ban (禁渔令), covering 332 conservation areas (保护区) in the Yangtze River. Dongshun has worked with his father as a lake ranger (巡湖员) for almost 3 years. This job helps him understand how important it is to protect Dongting Lake. “I think this job is meaningful.” he said, “As the wind is blowing gently, fish are swimming happily.

I knew he couldn’t buy a new battery and he certainly couldn’t pay for a new watch. He stayed on my mind all day, and I knew what I had to do. I went out to a shop and bought him a watch. It was not an expensive one, but was very like the one he had.When I saw him the next day, he was smiling and as cheerful as ever. When I bent down to put some change in his cup, I also dropped in the watch. I didn’t say anything about it. I just smiled at him and kept on walking. He didn’t even notice it until I had walked on.

But it was incomplete, so it could only roll (滚动) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with worms. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly (完美地). The circle put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole with nothing missing. It was so happy and began to roll. Now that (既然) it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It got to know how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled away slowly. Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better. He will never know someone loves him or someone is giving him something he has always wanted or never had. We couldn’t be perfect, but we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive (宽恕), kind enough to share happiness with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us and then we can always live a wonderful life. 66. Which of the following is true about the circle? A. It always rolled slowly. B. It talked with the flowers and the sunshine along the way. C. It found many different pieces easily but they didn’t fit. D. It didn’t find any flowers or sunshine along the way. 67. The circle rolled very slowly at first because it ________. A. spent much time talking to worms B. wanted to enjoy the sunshine C. was looking for its missing piece D. lost a piece of its own 68. After it was whole again and rolled fast, the circle ________. A. felt unhappy B. could see more beautiful flowers C. could talk to any worm D. could go everywhere 69. If a man owns everything, he will be ________ in some ways according to the passage.

A nobody loves us if we give nothing B. a man who has everything is the happiest C. losing something may not be a bad thing sometimes D. we are not whole when we lose something 五、信息还原（共5小题，每道题2分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一个选项为多于选项。 How can I become a better person? ____71____ As students we spend most of our time studying.

In the photos, while they are working on the boat on Dongting Lake, lots of fish are jumping into the fish bin (鱼舱). Dongting Lake is the second freshwater (淡水) lake in China, it’s home to nearly 400 kinds of fishes. But in the past, people threw litter and factories put waste water into the lake. Even worse, a large number of fish were caught by fishermen. Because of pollution and overfishing (过度捕捞), the Yangtze River was in great danger. For example, the Chinese paddlefish (中华白鲟) disappeared 2 years ago. Daming used to make a living by fishing near Dongting Lake. However, life was gradually becoming difficult for Daming and other fishermen. The more times they went to fish, the fewer fish they could get. In January, 2020, the government called for a 10-year fishing ban (禁渔令), covering 332 conservation areas (保护区) in the Yangtze River. Dongshun has worked with his father as a lake ranger (巡湖员) for almost 3 years. This job helps him understand how important it is to protect Dongting Lake. “I think this job is meaningful.” he said, “As the wind is blowing gently, fish are swimming happily. What a beautiful scene! The fishing ban will lead Dongting Lake to a better future.” 96.
