Five years ago, when my father was dying, I travelled a thousand miles from home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he died, I stayed alone in his flat. There were so many things to do. I was lonely and I hated the silence (寂静) of the flat. But one evening something broke the silence: I heard crying outside. I opened the door to find a little cat on the steps. He was thin and poor. He looked the way I felt. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then almost fell asleep at once. The next morning I checked with neighbors and learned that his owner left him. His owner had moved out, so the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the flat, I tried to work out what to do with him. Having something else to take care of seemed like the very last thing I needed. But as soon as I opened the flat door, he ran to me and jumped into my arms. It was clear from that moment that he didn’t want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father’s best friend. From then on, things grew easier. With Willis in my lap, time seemed to pass much faster. When the time finally came for me to return home, I had to decide what to do about Willis. There was absolutely no way I would leave without him. It’s been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said how nice it was of me to rescue (营救) the cat. But I know that we rescued each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater. 51. As soon as the writer saw the cat, she________. A. felt very afraid of him. B. showed no interest in him C. took pity on him D. felt angry with his crying 52. According to the passage, which of the following statements is WRONG? A. The cat liked staying in the writer’s flat. B. The writer called him Willis in order to remember my father. C.

A. telling her what real life was B. helping her tidy the flat every day C. helping her finish the tasks on time D. making her feel better in her hard times 54. What’s the best title for the passage? A. A lovely cat. B. My father and a cat. C. What I got from a cat. D. How to take care of a cat. 【答案】51. C 52. B 53. D 54. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者在父亲去世的时候，感到非常的伤心和孤独。这时一只被遗弃的小猫走进了作者的生活，它成了作者那个时候最好的感情寄托。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“ I opened the door to find a little cat on the steps. He was thin and poor. He looked the way I felt. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. ”可知，作者看到那只小猫就像她自己一样的孤独、可怜，所以把猫带到了家里，给他东西吃。由此可知作者非常的同情那只猫，故选C。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father’s best friend.”可知，威利斯是我的父亲的朋友，叫他威利斯是为了纪念作者父亲最好的朋友。B项表述错误，故选B。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“From then on, things grew easier. With Willis in my lap, time seemed to pass much faster. ”可知这只猫让她在困难时期感觉好点，从而拯救了作者。故选D。 【54题详解】 最佳标题题。根据最后一段“But I know that we rescued each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.”以及全文可知，因为这只猫，在作者的父亲去世后，她的生活得到了改观；因此C项“我从一只猫那里得到了什么”最符合文意，故选C。 B When 1 was five, my family lost everything because my father’s business failed (生意失败). My parents had to find jobs anywhere they could to feed my two younger brothers and me. My father wanted to make more money, so he took work across the USA. We could only see him once in a few months. Things started to get better two years later. My father found a stable (稳定的) job in Miami, Florida. So, we left New York and moved to Miami. But we still lived a poor life, because a person’s pay was far from enough or a family of five. We lived in Miami for eight years. In my last year of middle school, I got tired of living a poor life and often got into fights. My father wanted to help me and was thinking of our family’s future. Then, he came to a decision (决定)—moving to a country called Saudi Arabia (沙特阿拉伯). There, he could get higher pay and I could have a new start. He told me his decision, but I thought it was a joke. My father kept trying to tell me that although staring a mew life in a new country would take some time. I would make it. Now, years later, I am so grateful (感激的) for my father’s decision.

Yes, your coat! Professor Peng Huisheng and his team at Fudan University have made a new kind of cloth. We can use it as a digital screen (电子屏幕). They spend 12 years trying to make “digital cloth”. The first is to find out the right thread (线). After checking many of them, they choose two special ones. One can light up (发光), and the other is conductive (导电). The coat will be great. You can not only fold it, but also wash it. The researchers wash it 500 times and fold it 1,000 times. But the coat is almost unchanged. That’s because this coat is made of a kind of soft but strong fibers (纤维) and fits people well. You can wear it just like any other coat. The difference is that it can work like a smartphone. It is just like putting a phone screen into the coat. Wear it and then it can show you a lot of information you want. Professor Peng believes that the new coat can be used in many ways. For example, a driver or bike rider can use it as a GPS map on his or her arm when travelling around. Those who can’t hear or speak can also use it to talk with others. In the hospital, the doctor can get the health data of a patient through his coat. That helps look after them better. Do you want to put on this coat? It’s coming soon. Let’s wait and see. 63.

Five years ago, when my father was dying, I travelled a thousand miles from home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he died, I stayed alone in his flat. There were so many things to do. I was lonely and I hated the silence (寂静) of the flat. But one evening something broke the silence: I heard crying outside. I opened the door to find a little cat on the steps. He was thin and poor. He looked the way I felt. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then almost fell asleep at once. The next morning I checked with neighbors and learned that his owner left him. His owner had moved out, so the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the flat, I tried to work out what to do with him. Having something else to take care of seemed like the very last thing I needed. But as soon as I opened the flat door, he ran to me and jumped into my arms. It was clear from that moment that he didn’t want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father’s best friend. From then on, things grew easier. With Willis in my lap, time seemed to pass much faster. When the time finally came for me to return home, I had to decide what to do about Willis. There was absolutely no way I would leave without him. It’s been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said how nice it was of me to rescue (营救) the cat. But I know that we rescued each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater. 51.

A. telling her what real life was B. helping her tidy the flat every day C. helping her finish the tasks on time D. making her feel better in her hard times 54. What’s the best title for the passage? A. A lovely cat. B. My father and a cat. C. What I got from a cat. D. How to take care of a cat. B When 1 was five, my family lost everything because my father’s business failed (生意失败). My parents had to find jobs anywhere they could to feed my two younger brothers and me. My father wanted to make more money, so he took work across the USA. We could only see him once in a few months. Things started to get better two years later. My father found a stable (稳定的) job in Miami, Florida. So, we left New York and moved to Miami. But we still lived a poor life, because a person’s pay was far from enough or a family of five. We lived in Miami for eight years. In my last year of middle school, I got tired of living a poor life and often got into fights. My father wanted to help me and was thinking of our family’s future. Then, he came to a decision (决定)—moving to a country called Saudi Arabia (沙特阿拉伯). There, he could get higher pay and I could have a new start. He told me his decision, but I thought it was a joke. My father kept trying to tell me that although staring a mew life in a new country would take some time. I would make it. Now, years later, I am so grateful (感激的) for my father’s decision. Thanks to it, I met my best friends, and I was able to learn more about the world and different cultures. 55. At the age of seven, the writer _______.

A beautiful country C Think your winter is cold? Temperatures in Yakutsk (雅库茨克) fell to -62.7℃ in January this year—the coldest in more than twenty years, scientists say. Yakutsk is the capital of Russia’s Sakha Republic. It is just 300 miles south of the Arctic Circle (北极圈). It is widely thought of as the coldest city in the world. People there know the key to keeping warm: Just dress warmly, like a cabbage. In the winter, the city is covered with “ice fog”. That happens when air is so cold that warmer air from houses. People and cars can’t go up. Pyotr Beketov built Yakutsk in 1632. Today, it is the scientific, cultural and economic center for the Russian Far East Federal Region. The city has a population of more than 330,000. They mainly live on dairy products (奶制品), meat and fish. Although there are rich natural resources (资源), many people live a poor life. Some even live in places worse than their farm animals’ living places. The city also has some special museums. Permafrost Kingdom is one of the most popular. It is an underground museum with beautiful ice sculpture (冰雕). Its summers are cool, but visiting Yakutsk in winter is not a good idea.

Professor Peng Huisheng and his team at Fudan University have made a new kind of cloth. We can use it as a digital screen (电子屏幕). They spend 12 years trying to make “digital cloth”. The first is to find out the right thread (线). After checking many of them, they choose two special ones. One can light up (发光), and the other is conductive (导电). The coat will be great. You can not only fold it, but also wash it. The researchers wash it 500 times and fold it 1,000 times. But the coat is almost unchanged. That’s because this coat is made of a kind of soft but strong fibers (纤维) and fits people well. You can wear it just like any other coat. The difference is that it can work like a smartphone. It is just like putting a phone screen into the coat. Wear it and then it can show you a lot of information you want. Professor Peng believes that the new coat can be used in many ways. For example, a driver or bike rider can use it as a GPS map on his or her arm when travelling around. Those who can’t hear or speak can also use it to talk with others. In the hospital, the doctor can get the health data of a patient through his coat. That helps look after them better. Do you want to put on this coat? It’s coming soon. Let’s wait and see. 63.
