“Save the whales!” That’s what the picture on Jake Smith’s bedroom wall said. Jake liked having a picture that said something important to show what he cared. He just never expected to get a chance to save a real whale, one right in his own neighborhood.
It was a Saturday morning when the newspaper first reported the whales’ coming. A group of the animals were swimming close to the beach in Jake’ s hometown. All the local people rushed out to the beach to see them. They were expecting a beautiful show, better than a movie.
Then one whale swam in the direction directly towards land. It came in with the waves and when the waves receded (退去), it stayed. Its huge body rested on the land. Suddenly, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers (救援者). A few people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to force the whale back into the water, but it was no use.
An animal rescue service team soon arrived in a truck with heavy lifting machinery, to help move the animal. Jake and his family couldn’t do much on the beach, so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At least, Jake thought, they could help in some ways.
Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that it was needed. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying many times they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when it headed out to the sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment under the sea. Then, in what looked like a jump of joy, it rose high above the water—a thank-you to those who had worked so hard to save its life.
23. Which of the following is the right order of the events?
a. A huge whale rested on the land and couldn’t swim back to the sea.
b. It was reported that a group of whales were swimming close to the beach.
c. An animal rescue service team came to help move the animal.
d. The whale swam out about a mile and then disappeared under the sea.
A. d-a-c-b B. c-a-d-b C. b-d-a-c D. b-a-c-d
24. What does the picture on Jake’s wall tell us about him?
A. He loved whales best. B. He cared about animals.
C. He lived near the ocean. D. He was an animal rescuer.
25. Why did the local people go down to the beach?
A. To swim with whales. B. To help save whales.
C. To enjoy the whales show. D. To watch a movie about whales.

When introducing the rules of the class, the first words my math teacher, Ms Whitney, began with were “kindness” and “homework”. Now, I can only imagine that you must be feeling what I felt then: Why would homework, which is already so difficult, be connected with anything good?
As if understanding my confusion (困惑), Ms Whitney began to explain in her gentle-but-authoritative voice: “Homework sometimes needs cooperation. When others can’t solve a problem, and you can do it, you can help them. It provides you the chance to grow and learn. There’s a positive (积极的) relationship between them.”
It was at that moment I heard a pop in my head, a feeling as if the confusion around the two words had disappeared. Homework brings out kindness, and kindness in turn creates an environment that encourages everyone to practice.
Ms Whitney proved the truth behind those words during the following days. Every day, we were divided into groups and made to stand next to each other, working on problems that came like a never-ending flood. The first day, I was a bit uncomfortable working with another person. But soon, as we discussed questions and helped each other, that uncomfortable feeling began to disappear.
In a classroom filled with friendly discussion and Ms. Whitney’s happy voice calling out, “Kindness and Homework!” whenever she saw one of us standing alone or in need of help, math class didn’t feel as boring as it was before. It was hard to believe that homework problems could change the way people think. In the past, I could only think of one method to solve a problem, but now I can think of more than two ways. Learning in Ms. Whitney’s class has helped me find a strong wish to learn, which will help me for the rest of my journey abroad.
27. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “cooperation”?
A. To work together. B. To have fun. C. To be independent. D. To be careful.
28. When did the writer understand the relationship between “homework” and “kindness”?
A. The moment Ms Whitney explained patiently.
B. The moment the classroom filled with discussion.
C. The moment the writer worked with another person.
D. The moment Ms Whitney introduced rules of the class.
29. How did Ms. Whitney prove the truth behind her words?
A. By explaining her words again and again.
B. By discussing with her students strictly.
C. By calling out “Kindness and Homework” loudly.
D. By dividing students into groups to work on problems.
30. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The writer gets bored with maths class. B. The writer prefers to do things on her own.
C. Homework means more than finishing a task. D. Homework is not difficult for the writer at all.
D
Roberta woke up early the next morning. Then she woke up Phyllis and Peter. “We’re in the new house. There are no servants here. We must help Mother now,” whispered Roberta.
Carefully the three children lit the fire and filled a kettle (水壶) with water. They hung the kettle above the fire.
“Mother isn’t awake yet. Let’s go outside and sit on that flat stone,” said Roberta. “Perhaps we will see a train go by.”
When Mother came out at eight o’clock, Roberta, Peter and Phyllis were all fast asleep in the sunshine. They had put the kettle on the fire at five o’clock: three hours ago. All the water had boiled away (烧干). Now there was a hole in the bottom of the kettle. The fire had gone out.
“Never mind,” laughed Mother. “We can boil some water in a pan. And I’ve found the dinner.”
She led them into the kitchen and pointed to a door.
“Last night, I thought this was a cupboard. It was so dark. But look,” she said.
Mother opened the door and the children saw a little room with a table in the middle. On it there was roast beef, bread and butter, cheese and an apple pie.
“Apple pie for breakfast,” cried Peter. “What fun!”
It was a wonderful breakfast. Everyone was very hungry.
“It feels like dinner because we were up so early,” said Peter, as he passed his plate for more apple pie.
When the children had finished, they helped Mother put everything away in the right place.
Then Mother said, “I’m tired. I’m going to lie down for a while. Go out to play but please be careful.”
Roberta, Peter and Phyllis looked at each other. They were all thinking the same thing.
“Let’s go down to the railway,” cried Roberta.
“Listen!” said Phyllis. “I think I can hear a train.”
Peter asked, “Do you think it’s going to London?”
“Father is in London,” replied Roberta. “Let’s go to the station and find out”.

“Save the whales!” That’s what the picture on Jake Smith’s bedroom wall said. Jake liked having a picture that said something important to show what he cared. He just never expected to get a chance to save a real whale, one right in his own neighborhood.
It was a Saturday morning when the newspaper first reported the whales’ coming. A group of the animals were swimming close to the beach in Jake’ s hometown. All the local people rushed out to the beach to see them. They were expecting a beautiful show, better than a movie.
Then one whale swam in the direction directly towards land. It came in with the waves and when the waves receded (退去), it stayed. Its huge body rested on the land. Suddenly, Jake and his family and all the others were no longer sightseers. They had to become rescuers (救援者). A few people ran towards the animal. They pushed and tried to force the whale back into the water, but it was no use.
An animal rescue service team soon arrived in a truck with heavy lifting machinery, to help move the animal. Jake and his family couldn’t do much on the beach, so they went back to their house and made sandwiches and hot tea for the rescuers. At least, Jake thought, they could help in some ways.
Back at the beach, they offered the food to the rescuers and were happy to see that it was needed. It was getting dark. Some people lined up their cars along the beach and shined the headlights on the sand. The rescuers would not give up. After trying many times they were finally able to lift the whale into the water. Everyone cheered when it headed out to the sea. It swam out about a mile and then disappeared for a moment under the sea. Then, in what looked like a jump of joy, it rose high above the water—a thank-you to those who had worked so hard to save its life.
23. Which of the following is the right order of the events?
a. A huge whale rested on the land and couldn’t swim back to the sea.
b. It was reported that a group of whales were swimming close to the beach.
c. An animal rescue service team came to help move the animal.
d. The whale swam out about a mile and then disappeared under the sea.
A. d-a-c-b B. c-a-d-b C. b-d-a-c D. b-a-c-d
24. What does the picture on Jake’s wall tell us about him?
A. He loved whales best. B. He cared about animals.
C. He lived near the ocean. D. He was an animal rescuer.
25. Why did the local people go down to the beach?
A. To swim with whales. B. To help save whales.
C. To enjoy the whales show. D. To watch a movie about whales.
26. How did Jake and his family help save the whale?
A. By calling the rescue service. B. By giving the rescuers food and drink.
C. By asking their neighbors for help. D. By controlling the people on the beach.

When introducing the rules of the class, the first words my math teacher, Ms Whitney, began with were “kindness” and “homework”. Now, I can only imagine that you must be feeling what I felt then: Why would homework, which is already so difficult, be connected with anything good?
As if understanding my confusion (困惑), Ms Whitney began to explain in her gentle-but-authoritative voice: “Homework sometimes needs cooperation. When others can’t solve a problem, and you can do it, you can help them. It provides you the chance to grow and learn. There’s a positive (积极的) relationship between them.”
It was at that moment I heard a pop in my head, a feeling as if the confusion around the two words had disappeared. Homework brings out kindness, and kindness in turn creates an environment that encourages everyone to practice.
Ms Whitney proved the truth behind those words during the following days. Every day, we were divided into groups and made to stand next to each other, working on problems that came like a never-ending flood. The first day, I was a bit uncomfortable working with another person. But soon, as we discussed questions and helped each other, that uncomfortable feeling began to disappear.
In a classroom filled with friendly discussion and Ms. Whitney’s happy voice calling out, “Kindness and Homework!” whenever she saw one of us standing alone or in need of help, math class didn’t feel as boring as it was before. It was hard to believe that homework problems could change the way people think. In the past, I could only think of one method to solve a problem, but now I can think of more than two ways. Learning in Ms. Whitney’s class has helped me find a strong wish to learn, which will help me for the rest of my journey abroad.
27. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “cooperation”?
A. To work together. B. To have fun. C. To be independent. D. To be careful.
28. When did the writer understand the relationship between “homework” and “kindness”?
A. The moment Ms Whitney explained patiently.
B. The moment the classroom filled with discussion.
C. The moment the writer worked with another person.
D. The moment Ms Whitney introduced rules of the class.
29. How did Ms. Whitney prove the truth behind her words?
A. By explaining her words again and again.
B. By discussing with her students strictly.
C. By calling out “Kindness and Homework” loudly.
D. By dividing students into groups to work on problems.
30. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The writer gets bored with maths class. B. The writer prefers to do things on her own.
C. Homework means more than finishing a task. D. Homework is not difficult for the writer at all.
【答案】27. A 28. A 29. D 30. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Whitney老师通过自己的教学让作者明白作业和善良之间的关系。
【27题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“When others can’t solve a problem, and you can do it, you can help them.”可知,当别人解决不了问题,而你能做到的时候,你可以帮助他们,所以此处讲述的是合作,所以划线部分的含义是“合作”。故选A。
【28题详解】

【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Ms Whitney proved the truth behind those words during the following days. Every day, we were divided into groups and made to stand next to each other, working on problems that came like a never-ending flood.”可知,Whitney老师通过把学生分成小组解决问题来证明她话语背后的真实性。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Learning in Ms. Whitney’s class has helped me find a strong wish to learn, which will help me for the rest of my journey abroad.”及本段内容可知,作者在Whitney老师的课堂上学习,找到了强烈的学习愿望,这将有助于作者在接下来的海外之旅中继续学习,所以C项“家庭作业不仅仅意味着完成一项任务”符合。故选C。

Roberta woke up early the next morning. Then she woke up Phyllis and Peter. “We’re in the new house. There are no servants here. We must help Mother now,” whispered Roberta.
Carefully the three children lit the fire and filled a kettle (水壶) with water. They hung the kettle above the fire.
“Mother isn’t awake yet. Let’s go outside and sit on that flat stone” said Roberta. “Perhaps we will see a train go by.”

“Never mind,” laughed Mother. “We can boil some water in a pan. And I’ve found the dinner.”
She led them into the kitchen and pointed to a door.
“Last night, I thought this was a cupboard. It was so dark. But look,” she said.
Mother opened the door and the children saw a little room with a table in the middle. On it there was roast beef, bread and butter, cheese and an apple pie.
“Apple pie for breakfast,” cried Peter. “What fun!”
It was a wonderful breakfast. Everyone was very hungry.
“It feels like dinner because we were up so early,” said Peter, as he passed his plate for more apple pie.
When the children had finished, they helped Mother put everything away in the right place.
Then Mother said, “I’m tired. I’m going to lie down for a while. Go out to play but please be careful.”
Roberta, Peter and Phyllis looked at each other. They were all thinking the same thing.
“Let’s go down to the railway” cried Roberta.
“Listen!” said Phyllis. “I think I can hear a train.”
Peter asked, “Do you think it’s going to London?”
“Father is in London,” replied Roberta. “Let’s go to the station and find out”.
