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.” 24．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. D．The praise that a sales champion would win. 25．Why is Jonathan’s father mentioned in paragraph 4? A．To explain why Jonathan had other ideas. B．To show how his father’s story impressed him. C．To compare lifestyles of two different generations. D．To provide information about Jonathan’s childhood. 26．Which of the following can best describe Jonathan? A．Outgoing and selfless. B．Brave and smart. C．Thoughtful and caring. D．Gifted and honest. 27．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 C Scientists in South Africa have found that ceramic (瓷的) nest boxes can protect endangered African penguins from climate change. In the past, the penguins laid eggs in holes dug into centuries-old layers of their own droppings, most of which was shipped by traders to the United Kingdom as fertilizer (肥料) in the 1800s. Since then, many penguins have nested in the open, exposing their eggs and themselves to the burning heat. Because penguins evolved to keep heat in cold water, they can easily overheat on land. Typically, penguins leave their nests regularly to cool off in the sea. But without proper holes, this leaves their eggs unprotected. Since 1900, the African penguin population has dropped from three million to only 48,000. Fortunately, a team of researchers seem to have found a way. Over the past years, the team has put more than 1,500 handmade ceramic nest boxes in five areas where the penguins live, including Bird Island in Algoa Bay, South Africa, which is home to nearly half of the world’s remaining African penguins. Looking like small round houses, the double-walled ceramic nests can keep African penguins cool. “The nests are so useful,” says Welman, a zoologist, “Even if adults had to leave nests for some reason, their eggs would never be at any risk of overheating.” Christina Hagen of Bird Life South Africa, who was not part of the study, says finding effective conservation solutions is important given the decreasing population of African penguins. The main threat to African penguins is overfishing of anchovy and sardines, the penguins’ favorite food. Scientists and conservationists are pushing the South African government to close commercial fishing around the five African penguin breeding (繁殖) colonies until populations recover. But without protection from rising temperatures, those efforts alone may not be enough. Ceramic nests could help to give these beloved penguins a fighting chance. 28．What can we learn about African penguins from the passage? A．They well adapt to high temperatures. B．They are mainly threatened by pollution. C．They are suffering a lot from overheating. D．They have a population of over three million. 29．Why is Bird Island special to African penguins? A．There is a vast population of African penguins. B．It enjoys the best climate for African penguins. C．African penguins there can nest in the open. D．There are holes for penguins to lay eggs. 30．What is the main function of the ceramic nest boxes? A．To allow the penguins to stay cool inside. B．To protect the penguins from being hunted. C．To provide a place for the penguins to rest. D．To save enough room for the adult penguins. 31．What additional measure is being proposed to protect African penguins? A．Creating more nesting areas for the penguins. B．Stopping people fishing where the penguins breed. C．Introducing new species of fish for the penguins. D．Providing man-made cooling facilities for the penguins. D A wildlife photographer was waiting, hoping to get a shot of a relatively rare bird, a particular kind of heron(鹭). He’d waited several frustrating hours in the woods, but with no luck at all. Suddenly, to the photographer’s delight, a heron settled on a branch right in front of him. The photographer raised his camera and took the shot. Feeling particularly pleased, the photographer looked at the image. To his astonishment, he saw that behind the heron, his photograph had also captured a very, very rare woodpecker flying past. He hadn’t seen it, but without even trying, he’d photographed an even rarer bird than the one he was aiming for. This is an example of serendipity. Cases of serendipity can be found in numerous fields, such as science. Back in the 1800s, a man called Wellswas at a demonstration (演示) of laughing gas. After being given the gas, the patient started laughing, as expected. But then he suddenly fell over and cut his le g rather badly. To everyone’s surprise, the man reported that he couldn’t feel any pain. Wells hadn’t been looking for it, but he’d made a medical discovery — certain gases reduce and can even almost eradicate pain. Had Wells not been there that night, anesthesia (麻醉) might have taken longer to be discovered. Most of us can probably think of at least one example of serendipity in our own lives. Jane, a friend of mine,was trying to come up with an idea for an article but got completely stuck. Frustrated, she decided to go out to a local café. As she was sipping her coffee, she heard two people talking behind her. A man was telling a story that sounded so unbelievable that she knew it had to be true. She asked the people if she could interview them for the article. They agreed and her article turned out to be one of the top trending articles of the week. 32．The word “serendipity” in paragraph 1 means the fact of __________. A．observing rare birds in person B．achieving important aims in time C．finding valuable things by chance D．taking interesting photos by mistake 33．What surprised Wells at the demonstration? A．The gas’s hidden damage. B．The gas’s pain-killing effect. C．The patient’s scientific discovery. D．The patient’s balance-losing moment. 34．Why did Jane go to the café? A．To take a break. B．To meet a friend. C．To write an article. D．To do an interview. 35．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To explain a concept. B．To promote a culture. C．To introduce a person. D．To recommend a method. 七选五 Making the Most of the Body Clock Want to know the best time to do your homework and study for your exams?

Waiting with her mother at the checkout stand, she saw a necklace of shining white pearls in a pink metal box. Quickly the mother checked the back of the little metal box and then looked back into the begging blue eyes of her little girl’s upturned face. “A dollar and ninety­five cents. That’s almost $2. If you really want it, I’ll think of some extra housework for you and in no time you can save enough money to buy it for yourself. Besides, you might get another dollar bill from Grandma on your birthday a week away.” After dinner back home, she did more housework and even she asked the neighbor for housework for ten cents. On her birthday, Grandma did give her another new dollar bill and at least she had enough money to buy the cheap necklace from the dime store (廉价商店). Jenny loved her pearl necklace. She wore it everywhere. The only time she took it off was when swimming. Jenny had a very loving daddy and every night when she was ready for bed, he would stop whatever he was doing and come upstairs to read her a story. One night when he finished the story, he asked Jenny, “Do you love me?” “Oh, daddy. You know that I love you.” “Then give me your necklace.” “Oh, daddy, not my pearl necklace. But you can have my Barbie doll — the one you gave me. She’s my favorite.” “That’s okay, Honey. Daddy loves you. Good night.” And he brushed her cheek with a kiss. Daddy repeated the same request about a week after the story time. However, Jenny refused and wouldn’t give up her necklace to her daddy. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 A few nights later when her daddy came in, Jenny was sitting on her bed, waiting for her father. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With tears in his own eyes, Jenny’s kind daddy reached out one hand to take the cheap necklace. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 参考答案： 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 C A B C C B B A B A 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 B C A C B A B C B C 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 C A D C A C D C A A 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 B C B A A E F G B D 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 A B D C B A C B D A 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 C B A C D 1．C 【原文】W: How was yesterday’s swimming match?

The advice is to stare at the birds to prevent any food theft. This valuable tip comes from a study from the University of Exeter in the UK. Researchers conducted tests on the effects of staring at the sea birds. They put a bag of fries on the ground and monitored how long it took gulls to approach and snatch the fries without a researcher looking at the birds. They then carried out the same test, but this time a researcher made eye contact as a bird approached. The birds took extra 21 seconds to approach the food when a researcher stared at them. The researchers concluded that the seagulls were prevented by the human gaze. Only 25 percent of the birds made an attempt to take the researchers’ food with the eye contact. Three-quarters of the birds just stood still and looked at the food or flew away. Lead researcher Madeleine Goumas said, “I noticed that gulls seemed to have a bad reputation for food-snatching, but I saw it happen quite rarely. When I did see it happen, gulls often swooped in from behind, and the people were completely unaware. Gulls are often seen as aggressive and willing to take food from humans, so it was interesting to find that most wouldn’t even come near during our tests.” 21．C 22．A 23．D 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了近两年世界各地最新开放的四家大型公园，具体介绍了这四家公园的建造、特点及门票等。 21．数字计算题。根据“Ghibli Park, Japan”中的介绍“Tickets from $15 for adults; $7.50 for children.(成人票15美元起；儿童票7.50美元。)”可知, 史密斯夫妇和他们的两个孩子去该公园总共加起来的票价应该是15+15+7.5+7.5=45美元。故选C。 22．细节理解题。根据“Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park, Malaysia”可知, Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park位于亚洲的马来西亚。故选A。 23．推理判断题。根据第一段“The following are a series of new parks that have opened around the world in the last two years.(以下是过去两年在世界各地开放的一系列新公园。)”和文中四家公园对票价的介绍可知，本文介绍了世界各地最新开办的四家公园，这些公园是适合成人和孩子们的, 也就是适合全家活动的。故选D。 24．C 25．A 26．C 27．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。 24．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。 25．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。 26．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。 27．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。 28．C 29．A 30．A 31．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是南非科学家发现，陶瓷巢盒可以保护濒危的非洲企鹅免受气候变化的影响。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段“Since then, many penguins have nested in the open, exposing their eggs and themselves to the burning heat.(从那时起，许多企鹅都在露天筑巢，将蛋和自己暴露在灼热的高温中)”可知，非洲企鹅正饱受过热之苦。故选C。 29．细节理解题。根据第四段“Over the past years, the team has put more than 1,500 handmade ceramic nest boxes in five areas where the penguins live, including Bird Island in Algoa Bay, South Africa, which is home to nearly half of the world’s remaining African penguins.(在过去的几年里，该团队在企鹅生活的五个地区，包括南非Algoa Bay的Bird Island，放置了1500多个手工制作的陶瓷巢箱，那里是世界上近一半非洲企鹅的家园)”可知，Bird Island对非洲企鹅来说很特别是因为那里有大量的非洲企鹅。故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据第四段“Looking like small round houses, the double-walled ceramic nests can keep African penguins cool.(看起来像小圆屋的双层陶瓷巢可以让非洲企鹅保持凉爽)”可知，陶瓷窝盒的主要功能是让企鹅在里面保持凉爽。故选A。 31．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Scientists and  conservationists are pushing the South African government to close  commercial fishing around the five African penguin breeding (繁殖) colonies until populations recover..(科学家和环保人士正在敦促南非政府在五个非洲企鹅繁殖地附近关闭商业捕鱼活动，直到企鹅数量恢复)”可知，被提议来保护非洲企鹅的其他的措施是阻止人们在企鹅繁殖的地方捕鱼。故选B。 32．C 33．B 34．A 35．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要通过三件事来说明生活中会偶然发现有价值的事物的现象。 32．词句猜测题。根据第一段“A wildlife photographer was waiting, hoping to get a shot of a relatively rare bird, a particular kind of heron(鹭). He’d waited several frustrating hours in the woods, but with no luck at all. Suddenly, to the photographer’s delight, a heron settled on a branch right in front of him. The photographer raised his camera and took the shot. Feeling particularly pleased, the photographer looked at the image. To his astonishment, he saw that behind the heron, his photograph had also captured a very, very rare woodpecker flying past. He hadn’t seen it, but without even trying, he’d photographed an even rarer bird than the one he was aiming for.(一位野生动物摄影师在等着，希望能拍到一种相对罕见的鸟，一种特殊的苍鹭。他在树林里沮丧地等了几个小时，但一点运气也没有。突然，让摄影师高兴的是，一只苍鹭停在他面前的树枝上。摄影师举起相机拍了下来。摄影师看着这张照片，感到特别高兴。令他惊讶的是，他看到在苍鹭的后面，他的照片还捕捉到了一只非常非常罕见的啄木鸟飞过。他没有看到它，但他甚至没有尝试，他拍到了一只比他瞄准的那只更稀有的鸟)”可知，摄影师本来想拍苍鹭，结果偶然拍到了更稀有的啄木鸟，所以第一段中的“serendipity”一词是指偶然发现有价值的东西。故选C。 33．细节理解题。根据第二段“Back in the 1800s, a man called Wellswas at a demonstration (演示) of laughing gas. After being given the gas, the patient started laughing, as expected. But then he suddenly fell over and cut his le g rather badly. To everyone’s surprise, the man reported that he couldn’t feel any pain.(早在19世纪，一个叫威尔斯的人参加了笑气的演示。不出所料，注射完气体后，病人笑了起来。但是他突然摔倒了，伤得很重。令每个人吃惊的是，那个人报告说他感觉不到任何疼痛)”可知，气体的止痛作用让威尔斯感到惊讶。故选B。 34．细节理解题。根据第三段“Jane, a friend of mine, was trying to come up with an idea for an article but got completely stuck. Frustrated, she decided to go out to a local café.(我的一个朋友简试图想出一个文章的想法，但完全卡住了。她很沮丧，决定去当地的一家咖啡馆)”可知，简去咖啡馆是为了休息一下。故选A。 35．推理判断题。根据第一段“This is an example of serendipity.(这是一个意外发现的例子)”以及第三段“Most of us can probably think of at least one example of serendipity in our own lives. (在我们的生活中，我们大多数人可能至少能想到一个意外的例子)”结合文章主要通过三件事来说明生活中会偶然发现有价值的事物的现象。可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是解释一个概念。故选A。 36．E 37．F 38．G 39．B 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章说明了由于人体生物钟起作用，我们在一天的不同时间适合从事不同的活动。 36．根据下文每一段的小标题和内容，下文每一段的内容是关于在一天中不同的时间所适宜从事的活动。E项“Let’s now find out what activities are best for us at different times of the day. (现在让我们来了解一下在一天中的不同时间，哪些活动对我们最有利。)”能引起下文，符合文意。故选E。 37．根据下文“So if you need to go to the doctor's for an injection (注射), this is the best time to go. (如果你需要去医生那里注射，这是去的最好的时间)”可知，本空要说这个时间段去打针的原因，F项“The body is best at fighting pain between the hours of 9:00 am and 10:00 am (身体最擅长在上午9点到10点之间对抗疼痛。)”能引起下文，符合文意。其中doctors，an injection与F项中的fighting pain相关联。故选F。 38．根据下文“There is a slowdown in the speed your brain works, so it’s not the best time to solve difficult maths problems.(你的大脑工作速度会减慢，所以这不是解决数学难题的最佳时间。)”可知，本空要说造成减慢的原因。G项“Body temperature usually drops at this time and all the body systems slow down. (此时体温通常会下降，所有身体系统都会减慢)”能引起下文，符合文意。下文的slowdown与G项中的slow down相对应。故选G。 39．根据上文“After three o’clock, the body clock starts to tell your body to work again (三点以后，生物钟开始告诉你的身体重新开始工作)”可知，生物钟开始告诉你的身体重新开始工作即身体处于最佳状态，B项“From 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm your body is at its fittest. (从下午3点到5点，你的身体处于最佳状态。)”能承接上文，符合文意。故选B。 40．根据上文“Between 8: 00 pm and 10: 00 pm is the time people are most likely to feel lonely. (晚上8点到10点之间是人们最容易感到孤独的时间)”可知，本空要说感到孤独后寻找朋友的相关话题。D项“This maybe why students like to phone or meet their friends at this time. (这也许就是为什么学生们喜欢在这个时候打电话或见朋友的原因。)”能承接上文，符合文意。故选D。 41．A 42．B 43．D 44．C 45．B 46．A 47．C 48．B 49．D 50．A 51．C 52．B 53．A 54．C 55．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者在陪伴父亲最后的时光中难过遗憾，在一次偶然帮助一位坐轮椅的女士时，感悟了生命的意义，感受了生命的温暖。 41．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我在那里花了尽可能多的时间去看望他。癌症损害了他的身体，现在正在吞噬他的思想。A. damaged损害；B. broke打碎；C. prevented防止；D. injured伤害（尤指在事故中收到的伤害）。根据上文的cancer“癌症”可知，这里说的是损害了父亲的身体，故选择A项。 42．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我看得出来他只剩下几周的生命了。A. admit承认；B. tell知道，看出；C. announce宣布；D. ensure确保。根据上文“Cancer had 1 his body and was now eating away at his mind. （癌症损害了他的身体，现在正在吞噬他的思想。）”可知，这里说的是我知道他只剩下几周的生命了，故选择B项。 43．考查名词词义辨析。句意在其中一次看望中，我走进他的房间，却发现他正在熟睡。A. wonders奇迹；B. dreams梦想；C. occasions时机；D. visits看望。根据下文“I walked into his room only to find him in a deep sleep（我走进他的房间，却发现他正在熟睡。）”可知，这是在一次看望中所发生的事情，故选择D项。 44．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我坐在他身边，希望有更多的时间和他在一起，也很遗憾我没有充分利用我们在一起的这些年。A. stressing强调B. learning学习；C. regretting后悔；D. promising承诺。根据下文“that I hadn’t made the most of all the years we did have together.（我没有充分利用我们在一起的这些年。）”可知，这里说的是我很后悔，故选择C项。 45．考查介词词义辨析。句意：尽管有工作人员的善意和关爱，这个地方还是有一种悲伤和孤独的气氛。A.

As he came home, he noticed her lips were trembling and tears rolled down her cheeks. “What’s it, Jenny? What’s the matter?” Jenny didn’t say anything but lifted the metal box up with her little hand to her daddy. And when she opened it, there was her little pearl necklace. With a little trembling voice, she finally said, “Here, daddy. It’s for you.” She gave her treasure to her father eventually. With tears in his own eyes, Jenny’s kind daddy reached out one hand to take the cheap necklace. Meanwhile, with the other hand he reached into his pocket and pulled out a blue box with a necklace made of natural pearls and gave it to Jenny. He had had it all time. He was just waiting for her to give up the cheap necklace made of artificial pearls so he could give her a real valuable treasure. Jenny was very glad to take the necklace and a big smile appeared on her face. She said, “It’s very kind of you, dad!” 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小女孩珍妮（Jenny）在和妈妈一起购物结账时看到了一条很漂亮的项链，妈妈答应买给她，但要求她要自己做家务来挣得这份钱。珍妮同意了，并做到了，最后终于得到了心心念念的漂亮项链。但是她的爸爸却一次次的向她要那条项链，她很是不舍得。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几天后的晚上，当她的爸爸进来时，珍妮坐在床上等着她的爸爸。”可知，第一段可描写珍妮决定要把项链给爸爸的事情。 ②由第二段首句内容“珍妮善良的爸爸眼里含着泪水，伸出一只手去拿那条便宜的项链。”可知，第二段可描写爸爸要送给珍妮一条真正的珍珠项链的事情。 2.续写线索：不舍——送项链给爸爸——爸爸感动——接受便宜项链——送出真正的珍珠项链——珍妮很高兴 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①注意到：notice/see ②提起：lift up/pick up ③给：gave/present 情绪类 ①颤抖的：trembling/shivering ②高兴的：glad/happy 【点睛】【高分句型1】As he came home, he noticed her lips were trembling and tears rolled down her cheeks.（由As引导的时间状语从句和省略连词that引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】And when she opened it, there was her little pearl necklace.（由when引导的时间状语从句） 答案第1页，共2页 答案第1页，共2页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
