If people stay in high temperatures for too long, the heat will damage their organs (器官) and make them feel sick, pass out or even die.

【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据“people sitting in bomb shelters (防空洞) to get cool air. The city went through a big heat wave”可知成都经历了一场大热浪,所以人们坐在防空洞以获得凉爽的空气。故选C。

【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“the heat will damage their organs (器官) and make them feel sick, pass out or even die.”可知高温会损害他们的器官,使他们感到恶心、昏倒甚至死亡,故此处划线部分意为“损害”,和harm意义相近。故选B。

Joel Boyers, a helicopter pilot in Helistar Aviation, was heading home with his wife Melody Among from the Nashville airport when he received a call from a stranger in Pennsylvania. The caller said that her brother and his two daughters were trapped (困住) on their roof in Waverly, 60 miles from Nashville, because of the rising floodwaters.
“Could you please rescue (营救) my loved ones?” she asked.
Joel looked west toward Waverly and saw the storm clouds. “Ma’am, no one will fly in this weather,” he said, “ ★ .” He put the brother’s address into his phone, then drove back to the airport.
Soon, Joel and Melody were in the air. Upon arriving, they found the water below was rapid and people were holding tightly onto anything that didn’t move. Cell phone service was also cut off, meaning Joel couldn’t use his phone to locate the house he was looking for. He flew on anyway.
Melody kept searching for people trapped on roofs, bridges—anywhere Joel could land and get them into the helicopter. Suddenly, she found a girl, who was barely out of the water, wet and tired out, one hand grasping a tree and the other holding her dog. With no place to land, Joel lowered the helicopter until it hovered (盘旋) just above the water line. Then Melody helped the girl and the dog get onboard. After dropping them off on a safe street, Joel and Melody were back in the air again.
Ninety minutes later, professional rescue helicopters showed up when Joel and Melody almost ran out of fuel (燃料) after rescuing 17 people. Now the caller phoned back to say that her loved ones had been saved.
31. The woman called Joel to _________.
A. tell him about a terrible flood
B. ask for a helicopter ride to Waverly
C. warn him about the danger of flying in such weather

A. There was no cell phone service. B. He couldn’t find a place to land safely.
C. His helicopter was running out of fuel. D. The storm clouds blocked his view.
33. Which of following can be put in ★ ?
A. I wish I could help, but it’s out of my hands. B. you’re on your own.
C. but I’d see what I can do. D. unless you go with us.
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Joel first found the caller’s brother’s position after arriving in Waverly.
B. The girl was trying to pull her dog out of the water.
C. The caller might feel thankful for Joel and Melody’s help at last.
D. 17 people were rescued by professional rescue helicopters within 90 minutes.
35. The best title of the passage could be _________.
A. Flying in the Air B. To Rescue My Love
C. A Life-saving Call D. Braving the Waters
【答案】31. D 32. B 33. C 34. C 35. D
【解析】

【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Now the caller phoned back to say that her loved ones had been saved.”可知,这位女士最终打电话回来表示感谢,说明她可能对Joel和Melody的帮助感到感激。故选C。

C
My best friend Larry is exceptionally (及其) small. Although his body is small, Larry is big at heart. When some smart mouth calls him Dopey, Sleepy or Bashful, Larry just laughs. Larry loves sports, especially baseball. I remember when he first came to try out for our Little League team. The coach (教练) took one look and shook his head.
“No, I’m sorry, but we need big, strong players, not a batboy (球童)!” Larry just smiled and said. “Give me a chance to try out. If you still think I’m a weak player, I’ll be the best batboy you have ever had!” The coach looked at him with respect, handed him a bat, and said, “Okay, it’s a deal.”
We had a winning season, and yesterday was our final game. We were tied (打成平手) with the Comets for the championship (冠军). As their pitcher (投手) Matt passed our bench on the way to the pitcher’s mound (投球区土墩), he shouted at Larry, “Why don’t you go back to Snow White where you belong (属于)?” I heard him and jumped up, ready to give Matt a punch (拳击), when Larry stepped between us. “Cut it out!” he yelled, pushing me away from Matt. “I can fight for myself.”
Thanks to Larry, we beat them and became the champion (冠军). We took turns putting Larry on our shoulders and marching (行进) around the field. When we passed Matt, Larry said, “Put me down for a minute,” He walked over to Matt, with his hand wide open again for the handshake that Matt had refused earlier. “It was a good game,” Larry said, “and you came closer to win it.”
Matt looked at Larry for what seemed like a long time, but finally Matt took Larry’s hand and shook it. “You may be a shrimp,” he said, “but you’re no chicken. You deserved (值得) to win. I was proud to have Larry as a friend. Like I said, he’s really big at heart.”
36. It’s clear that Dopey, Sleepy and Bashful ________.
A. are names of some great batboys B. refer to three characters in Snow White
C. are bad nicknames for Larry D. mean something unexpected in the future
37. “I can fight for myself.” in the third paragraph really means ________.
A. he would try his best to win the game B. he expected to fight against Matt by himself
C. it was not the writer’s business to challenge Matt D. only a small fight couldn’t improve himself
38. Why did the coach hand Larry a bat?
A. Because Larry was just the right player he wanted.
B. Because a good bat was a symbol of an excellent team
C. Because the best prize for a winner was a bat.
D. Because he expected Larry to prove himself with the bat.
39. What can we know from the passage?
A. The baseball coach didn’t think much of Larry at first.
B. Larry likes shrimp instead of chicken,
C. Matt didn’t show his respect to Larry in the end.
D. Matt thought Larry was actually weak in the end.
40. The best title of the passage could be ________.
A. Deserve to Win B. Big at Heart C. The Best Batboy Ever D. A Good Game
【答案】36. C 37. C 38. D 39. A 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了Larry虽然身体矮小,但内心强大,通过努力和自信赢得了教练和队友的尊重,并最终帮助球队赢得冠军的故事。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据“When some smart mouth calls him Dopey, Sleepy or Bashful, Larry just laughs.”可知有人用Dopey、Sleepy和Bashful这些名字来称呼Larry,这些是Larry的坏绰号。故选C。
【37题详解】
句意猜测题。在第三段中,Larry说“I can fight for myself.” 这句话的意思是他可以自己为自己而战,不需要别人为他出头。即挑战Matt不是作者的事。故选C。

If you still think I’m a weak player, I’ll be the best batboy you have ever had!’ The coach looked at him with respect, handed him a bat, and said, ‘Okay, it’s a deal.’ ”可知教练一开始对Larry并不满意,但是Larry坚持要一个机会来试训,教练被Larry的决心和自信所打动,于是给他一个球棒,希望他能用这个球棒证明自己。故选D。

The caller said that her brother and his two daughters were trapped (困住) on their roof in Waverly, 60 miles from Nashville, because of the rising floodwaters.
“Could you please rescue (营救) my loved ones?” she asked.
Joel looked west toward Waverly and saw the storm clouds. “Ma’am, no one will fly in this weather,” he said, “ ★ .” He put the brother’s address into his phone, then drove back to the airport.
Soon, Joel and Melody were in the air. Upon arriving, they found the water below was rapid and people were holding tightly onto anything that didn’t move. Cell phone service was also cut off, meaning Joel couldn’t use his phone to locate the house he was looking for. He flew on anyway.
Melody kept searching for people trapped on roofs, bridges—anywhere Joel could land and get them into the helicopter. Suddenly, she found a girl, who was barely out of the water, wet and tired out, one hand grasping a tree and the other holding her dog. With no place to land, Joel lowered the helicopter until it hovered (盘旋) just above the water line. Then Melody helped the girl and the dog get onboard. After dropping them off on a safe street, Joel and Melody were back in the air again.

My best friend Larry is exceptionally (及其) small. Although his body is small, Larry is big at heart. When some smart mouth calls him Dopey, Sleepy or Bashful, Larry just laughs. Larry loves sports, especially baseball. I remember when he first came to try out for our Little League team. The coach (教练) took one look and shook his head.
“No, I’m sorry, but we need big, strong players, not a batboy (球童)!” Larry just smiled and said. “Give me a chance to try out. If you still think I’m a weak player, I’ll be the best batboy you have ever had!” The coach looked at him with respect, handed him a bat, and said, “Okay, it’s a deal.”
We had a winning season, and yesterday was our final game. We were tied (打成平手) with the Comets for the championship (冠军). As their pitcher (投手) Matt passed our bench on the way to the pitcher’s mound (投球区土墩), he shouted at Larry, “Why don’t you go back to Snow White where you belong (属于)?” I heard him and jumped up, ready to give Matt a punch (拳击), when Larry stepped between us. “Cut it out!” he yelled, pushing me away from Matt. “I can fight for myself.”
Thanks to Larry, we beat them and became the champion (冠军). We took turns putting Larry on our shoulders and marching (行进) around the field. When we passed Matt, Larry said, “Put me down for a minute,” He walked over to Matt, with his hand wide open again for the handshake that Matt had refused earlier. “It was a good game,” Larry said, “and you came closer to win it.”
Matt looked at Larry for what seemed like a long time, but finally Matt took Larry’s hand and shook it. “You may be a shrimp,” he said, “but you’re no chicken. You deserved (值得) to win. I was proud to have Larry as a friend. Like I said, he’s really big at heart.”
