One way of catching them is by fingerprinting. Fingerprinting is the study of the patterns on our fingertips. We have known that no two fingerprints are exactly the same for hundreds of years. However, it wasn’t until 1910 that the first criminal in the USA was convicted (被判有罪) using fingerprint evidence. Early on the morning of September 19, 1910, Hiller’s wife noticed that the light which they usually left on was off. When Hiller went to find out what was happening, he saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. The stranger had broken in and wanted to steal. Hiller and the stranger started to fight, but the stranger had a gun. He shot Hiller twice and ran away. Hiller’s wife ran to Hiller when she heard the gunshots but found him dead. So she called the police. Soon after, the police caught Thomas Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house. The only problem was no one saw the criminal. However, the police had started using fingerprinting at that time. According to Hiller’s wife, only several hours before Hiller’s death, he had painted some wood near the kitchen window. Then the police checked the wood completely and found some fingerprints in the wet paint. During the trial (审判), the police proved that the fingerprints belonged to Jennings, and he was convicted of Hiller’s murder. Since then, fingerprinting has helped in the conviction of hundreds of thousands of criminals. 1. What helped the police convict the murderer of Hiller? A. B. C. D. 2.

Crowds of happy people go to the park, waving ribbons in their hands. That’s because the gardening competition takes place there. For Julie and me, it was a pity that we couldn’t take part in the competition, for that was also the first day of our high school. We buried ourselves in choosing courses. We wanted to learn all about plants, gardening and farming. Finally, a course called Agriculture and Wildlife came into our sight. We thought it would help us succeed as gardeners. Project presentation After a year’s study, Julie advised me to give a presentation. There was a small plastic model of my idea on the table. On the other side of the table, my teachers were waiting to see my project—the green farm. “Good morning!” I said “During my studies I’ve learned a lot about city farming. Now. I want to do something with what I’ve learned.” I showed them the model. “This is the high street of our town. This is an old, nine-floor car park. No one has used it for the last two years and it’s now for sale.” I continued the presentation. They could see my designs on the big screen when I talked. “I’ve designed a city farm using the car park building. There will be eight floors to farm fruit and vegetables. This design can help us collect rainwater to wet the soil. And we can also use energy from the sun to power the special growing lights. “ “I will hire the space out to local people and they will sell everything good enough for the environment in local shops. Also, the ninth floor will be for those who want to grow their own plants.” My audience looked interested and my project got the highest marks in my class. But in the real world. it couldn’t happen because the car park was not available. ▲ Later, Julie helped me search the town for the perfect place for gardening, not in front of the Town Hall or the shopping centre. We tried to look for something different. Somewhere that was not the best neighbourhood, but a poor one. One where the road was full of holes and the pavement (人行道) was all broken. At last, we made it. In the neighbourbood, we posted letters through people’s doors with gardening instructions. More and more people cared about that and began to plant vegetable gardens. Then in the same neighbourhood, we put grass over those broken old pavements for the kids to play on. Finally, we put up a sign that said, “Have fun here.” When we finished, we were both covered in soil and completely exhausted. But Julie put an arm around my shoulders and smiled. “Not bad!” she said. “We can do more to make our town greener!”. 1. The writer mentioned the gardening competition to ________.

Caden said in a scaring voice, “Bob was sure this was the end of his day. Then, a long, shiny thing appeared over him.” “A knife!” Alice shouted. “Alice, it’s your turn.” Quill said. Alice added, “Then something dropped. The knife spread it all over Bob.” “Salad cream.” said Emma and pulled Quill’s T-shirt. Alice continued, “Suddenly, a giant hand lifted Bob towards a big hole. Bob screamed, ‘Help!’ ” Caden wanted to cut in, but Alice stopped him. Quill smiled at Emma. Emma took a deep breath, and said, “Bob screamed again. The hand was surprised and dropped Bob. Bob ran away.” “So, the bread is free.” Caden cut in. “Not finished!” Emma shouted, “Just then, a bread truck appeared. Bob ran towards it. But something big followed him.” “What was that?” a kid asked. Emma sat forward. Caden could feel his own breath, as if he was also there with Bob. SNAP! Emma clapped her hands.

One of its wings looks broken, touching the ground. Its eyes look scared. So Jack takes off his T-shirt and wraps (包裹) it carefully round the hawk. Then he carries it home. “I can’t take him into the house,” he thinks. “My mum doesn’t like animals in the house!” Thinking for a while, Jack decides to hide the hawk in the garden shed (棚子). He secretly puts the hawk down on the floor with his T-shirt. Looking at the hawk, he says, “It’s your home now. Call you Falco, OK?” After that, he goes back to his room. Unluckily, his parents are waiting for him. Finding his T-shirt missing, they get quite angry and don’t allow him to go out within a week. Jack goes to his room without any words, but he can’t fall asleep because he is worrying about Falco. In the early morning, Jack takes some bread to feed Falco and goes back to his room secretly. After breakfast, Jack goes to the garden shed, holding a small bowl of water. In the shed, he finds Falco sitting quietly in a corner, the bread still on the floor. Falco’s eyes are open, but not bright now. Jack puts the water in front of Falco. At first, Falco ignores (忽视) it, then he begins to drink. Jack sits quietly, looking at him, imagining Falco flying in the endless blue sky. But now he is trapped on the earth. “How can I help you return to the sky, Falco?” When Jack leaves the shed, his brother Jim is waiting for him outside. “What’s so interesting in the shed?” “Nothing.” “Tell me the truth, Jack.

She often had energetic walks with her family through the nearby woods. Some plants and wildflowers seemed to shout at her with their wild colours. Others hid behind rocks. Lucy looked at the shapes of leaves as she walked in the woods. She kept a record of what she saw. She also learnt to draw what she saw. Then she could compare all kinds of plants. Later, Lucy grew more and more interested in botany, the study of plants. Branching Out At university, Lucy took classes in geology, or the study of rocks and minerals. Her work with geologists changed how she looked at the natural world. She continued her studies in botany as well. Lucy also took classes in ecology (生态学).

In the evening, I went to the landing place. “Dear Father,” I said politely. “Have you found Belinda’s parents yet?” “Not yet, my dear.” He shook his head. I felt relaxed. I didn’t want to meet Belinda’s parents—they might be ten times as loud and bossy as she was. But Belinda had followed me. “Not yet?” she shouted. “Why not? I’ll send them a message! They’ll listen to me!” Belinda ran to the radio. She shouted into it so loudly that I had to cover all my four ears. “Mummy! Daddy! I’m on an awful spaceship full of purple people! Come and find me now!” “Poor Belinda!” my sister came and said. “Her parents must be missing her.” “Huh!” I snorted (发出哼声). “Missing her? You’re joking! Who would want such a bossy kid back?

Daddy!” Belinda’s parents were even uglier than she was, but they looked polite. “Hello, dear,” the female said. “We’re sorry we kept you waiting.” We smiled as the three of them boarded their spaceship. “Goodbye!” shouted Belinda. “Goodbye!

I had my flashlight (手电筒) on under the sleeping bag. Maybe the light was why I couldn’t sleep, but I was too afraid to turn it off. What had happened kept coming back to my mind. When we got back to the camp, no one noticed we’d been gone. The teachers and all the other kids were still watching the movie. They didn’t know how something bad had just happened to me and Jack. It’s so strange how that can be, how you could have a night that’s the worst in your life, but to everybody else it’s just a usual night. Amos, Miles and Henry brought us back to our seats. Then they returned to their own seats. In a way, everything was exactly as we had left it. The sky was the same. The movie was the same. Everyone’s faces were the same. Mine was the same. But something was different. Something had changed. Home “So, do you want to hear about the bad part or the good part first?” I asked Mum. “Whatever you want to talk about,” she answered. “Well, except for last night, I had a fantastic time,” I said. “I feel like they ruined (毁坏) the whole trip for me.” “No, sweetie. Don’t let them do that to you. You were there for more than forty-eight hours, and that awful part lasted one hour. Don’t let them take that away from you, okay?” “I know.” I nodded. “But do I always have to worry about bad guys like that? Like when I grow up, is it always going to be like this?” “There are always going to be bad guys in the world, Auggie,” she said, looking at me. “But I really believe there are more good people on this earth than bad people, and the good people watch out for each other and take care of each other. Just like Jack was there for you. And Amos. And those other kids.” “Oh yeah, Miles and Henry,” I answered. “They were amazing, too. It’s very strange because Miles and Henry haven’t even really been very nice to me at all during the year.” “Sometimes people surprise us,” she said, rubbing the top of my head. 1.

The weather was rainy and windy, but we travelled happily. Gordon’s business took a long time. We didn’t leave until late afternoon. The wind was then much higher. My master said to John, “I have never been out in such a storm!” Mr Gordon and John could not see well in the rain. We came to a wooden bridge. It was very nearly dark. We could just see that the water was over the middle of the bridge. But as that happened sometimes when the floods were out, master did not stop. The moment my feet touched the first part of the bridge, I felt sure there was something wrong. I dare (敢于) not go forward, and I made a dead stop. “Go on, Beauty,” said my master, and he gave me a touch with the whip (鞭子), but I dare not move. He gave me a sharp cut and I jumped, but I dare not go forward. “There’s something wrong, sir,” said John, and he got out and tried to lead me forward. “Come on, Beauty.” But I knew that the bridge was not safe. Just then the man on the other side saw us. “Hey! Halloo! Stop!” he cried. “What’s the matter?” shouted my master. “The bridge is broken in the middle, and part of it is carried away. If you go onto it, you’ll be into the river.” “Thank you for saving us, Beauty!” said John. He gently turned me round to the right hand road by the river side. It grew darker and darker, stiller and stiller. When we returned home the Squire told Mrs Gordon, “Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was dangerous.” John took me to the stable. Oh!

She quickly eats a piece of bread, takes her bag and jacket, and runs to school. What a busy morning! But that’s not all for looking after a pet dog. When Holly takes Eco for his evening walk, it’s quite dark outside. Holly feels nervous. She runs along the road with him, but it’s difficult. Because Eco often stops to study the bushes and trees. And he often tries to catch birds, or play with sticks and fallen leaves. A few days go by. Then… It’s raining outside. Eco enters…and the trouble starts. Eco’s dirty paws leave prints everywhere, on the floor, on the blanket, on the sofa…“Come here, Eco!” says Holly. She wants to stop him, but it doesn’t work. Holly gets really angry now. She decides to punish Eco. So that night Eco is kept in the green house alone. When Holly enters the green house next morning, it’s a disaster. Her mum’s plants and flowers are lying on their sides or on the floor. And the pots (花盆) are broken into a hundred pieces. And Eco is sitting in the soil and leaves. “Oh, no,” says Holly. She realizes it’s time to train the dog. “He needs to know the rules.” Every day after school, Holly repeats simple orders to Eco. If he can do as ordered, he can get nice bones. The amazing thing is, Eco really enjoys it. For him, it’s one big game. So Eco learns to sit when Holly says, “Sit!” He learns to come when Holly says, “Come here!”…And he doesn’t get into trouble! 1. What can we learn from Holly’s words in paragraph 2? A. She is glad to take care of the dog. B. She is too busy to look after the dog. C. She wants her father to look after the dog. D. She thinks it’s hard to take care of the dog. 2.

[11]（2023·江苏南通·中考真题）Jordan had his eye on a scoring record. Jordan took a deep breath as he stood in the doorway, looking in at the basketball court. Maybe today I’ll make history, he thought. The city’s youth basketball league was holding a celebration. Today’s championship game marked 50 years since the league’s first title game (冠军争夺赛). Before the game, Jordan looked over a special program. It listed the winners of each championship game and the top scorers. Jordan stopped when he read the name of the top scorer from a game 30 years before. “Devin, look!” he said to his friend, “You see who has the all-time record? My dad! Twenty-four points. But he never told me that.” “Twenty-four points,” Devin said. “That’s great.” Jordan’s best was 19 points. He was the league’s top scorer. When his parents showed up at the gym, Jordan brought the program over to them. His dad laughed. “I had quite a game that day,” he said. “But look at the score. I prefer to trade all my points for a win.” Jordan hadn’t noticed that his dad’s team had lost by one point. “That was a great group of teammates,” Dad said. “I’m still friends with a lot of them.” As game time came near, Jordan slapped hands with his teammate Tara and then started to warm up. The courts filled up quickly. Jordan felt strangely calm. He’d played so many games in this gym that it was like his own home. Jordan had led his team to a victory over the Lions last season. Why shouldn’t today be like that? Jordan grew even more confident when he hit the first 2 shots (投篮). The Lions called a break. Jordan ran to the bench and jumped up and down with excitement. “Great start,”Coach said. “But those guys are tough. They’ll come back on us.” He was right. By half time, the Lions had pulled ahead, 27-24. Jordan looked up at his parents. His dad nodded and called, “Great work!” But Jordan didn’t feel quite as confident as he had before. The teams traded baskets throughout the second half, with neither building a lead. Eleven seconds left. The scoreboard was clear: LIONS 51. BADGERS 51. Coach told Jordan to bring the ball up the court. “Look for Devin inside, but take the shot if you’re open,” he said. Jordan glanced at his dad again. His dad pointed to Jordan, then held up two fingers on one hand and three fingers on the other. “Me?” Jordan mouthed. Dad nodded. Jordan had scored 23 points. Another basket would break the record. And it was the right time to do it! Jordan ran right, then left, but he was still a long way from the basket. The viewers started counting the seconds. “Four... three... two.” Jordan rose to shoot. As the Lions rushed toward him, he passed the ball to Devin—wide open near the basket. Devin turned and shot. The ball fell cleanly through the net for the winning points. “Yes!” Jordan shouted. After celebrating with his team, he ran to hug his parents. “You still have the record,” he told his dad. Dad smiled. “You have something more important. A championship. And great teammates. Congratulations on your history!” 1. Which of the following is true according to the article? A. Dad’s team got the championship 30 years before. B.

Instead, she just heard sparrows making noise in the bushes. “Maybe Gulliver missed the harbour.” Dad said. After breakfast, Katie took her camera to the harbour. All the colourful boats made pretty pictures, but not the one she wanted most. Katie waved to Ernest, her uncle’s neighbour, on the boathouse. The gull’s name, Gulliver, was given by him. The gull’s size and his single leg made the bird itself different. But Ernest told Katie what Gulliver did that first summer Katie and her dad came caught everyone’s attention. Young Katie lay in her stroller (婴儿车) on the floating dock (码头) when Uncle Ralph and Dad were repairing boats nearby. The waves from the passing boat made Katie’s stroller shake strongly. “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” Gulliver made the loudest cry. Dad and uncle rushed to Katie and stopped the stroller from falling into the water. They kept a close eye at Katie after that. Another summer Katie was three years old, she liked to touch everything. But Dad didn’t watch her every minute when she tried to catch small ducks around or fish from water. “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” The gull’s cry brought Dad back in time. He stopped Katie as she tried to follow the small ducks running towards water. Several summers passed, and Gulliver continued to call out as Katie tried new things. This summer Katie did the usual by-the-sea things she’d learned to do. One day, she rowed a boat out but was trapped on a rock by a storm. As she looked up and tried to catch the last warmth of the sunshine through dark clouds, she saw a single white feather. A gull feather? She searched the sky for an answer. Putting her arms around knees, she closed eyes to hold in the tears (眼泪). “Kee-aah! Kee-aah!” Katie sat up. “Katie! Katie!” Soon, Dad and Uncle Ralph appeared. “How lucky! We heard Gulliver as we came around the rocks,” Uncle Ralph said, “At least… it sounded like him. Strange, he was nowhere in sight.” Katie remembered the feather. “I thought I heard him, too.” —Adapted from the story by Gillian Richardson 1.

Then he lived with his grandpa in a small house. Life was harder for them. Their life depended on Nello’s grandpa. Every morning, the old man would collect fresh milk from one house to another. He then had to load (装载) the milk on a cart and sent it to the city. Growing up a little older, Nello would try to help his grandpa to travel from Flanders to the city. One day, as Nello and his grandpa were going home from the city they saw a large dog lying on the side of the road. The dog was motionless. “What happened?” asked Nello. “Is the dog dead?” His grandpa touched the nose of the dog with his hand and examined the body of the dog. He then said to Nello, “The dog is seriously ill. We have to take him to a vet (兽医), or he will die.” With the words, his grandpa put the dog on the cart and the two went home. The fact was that the dog was abandoned (抛弃) by his master because of his serious illness. Seeing the dying dog, Nello was heart-broken. The kind hearted boy took good care of him. Even though Nello and his grandpa did not have enough to eat, he would still feed the dog with milk and bread. Day by day, the dog began to stand on his feet and became stronger and stronger. “We should give him a name,” said Nello one day to his grandpa. “That’s a good idea,” replied his grandpa. “What name do you want to give him? How about Patrasche?” said Nello. “Patrasche is a beautiful name,” said his grandpa. From then on, Patrasche became a member of the family. One day, as Nello and his grandpa loaded the cart with milk and were ready to start their journey to the city, Patrasche stood in front of the cart. “Out of the way, Patrasche,” said Nello. “We’ll be late.” But Patrasche refused to move. He was simply staring at Grandpa and wagging(摇摆) his tail. “What does he want to do?” asked Nello. His grandpa smiled and said. “I believe our Patrasche wants to help pull the cart.” Hearing Grandpa’s words, Patrasche was wagging his tail even harder. Patrasche had been badly treated by his master all his life. Never had anyone treated him nicely as Nello and his grandpa. Patrasche was thankful for the kindness he received, so he wanted to help, Grandpa tied a stripe on Patrasche, and he started to pull the cart right away.

Then she started to teach us the alphabet (字母表). When Miss Caroline discovered that I was literate (有读写能力的), she said, “Tell your father not to teach you any more. It’s best to begin reading and writing with a fresh mind.” After supper that night, Atticus sat down with the paper and called, “Scout, ready to read?” I told Atticus I didn’t feel very well and didn’t think I’d go to school any more if it was all right with him. “You never went to school and you do all right, so I’ll just stay home too.

It works this way,” he said. “If you promise me to go to school, we’ll go on reading every night as usual. Is it OK?” “Yes sir!” 1. What happened to Scout on her first day at school? A.

Bassanio smiled. “My friend Antonio will help me. If I do not pay you in three months, he will do it for me.” Now it was Shylock’s turn to smile. Perhaps this would be a chance for him to hurt his enemy in some way. “I understand that Antonio has some ships in different parts of the world,” he said, “and that when they come back, he will have plenty of money. However, there are many risks in his business. There are pirates (海盗), and there are storms, and everything could be lost. But I am not worried about him because I know that Antonio is a good man.

Antonio called Shylock some bad names. “He looks like a good apple,” he told Bassanio, “but inside he is rotten.” Bassanio was worried. Perhaps Shylock would not lend him the money, so he spoke to Antonio.

I will lend you thirty thousand dollars for three months. You will pay no interest. Just for fun, however, let’s agree that if you do not pay me on time, you will give me one pound of your flesh (肉) from wherever I choose to take it!” Antonio agreed. He even told Bassanio that he thought Shylock was kind because he was not making them pay interest, but Bassanio did not agree. “I won’t let you do that for me,” he insisted. “The risk is too big.

At that time, the University of Warsaw didn’t accept female students. But that didn’t stop young Marie. Instead, she learned in secret. She went to informal classes which were held in ever-changing places, called the “Floating University”. In 1891, she went to Sorbonne, a university in Paris that treated women equally.

But when he took the blue coat, there on the shelf behind all of the dark coats, hidden like a spring flower in winter darkness, there, as if by magic, was a pink coat. “A pink coat!” Sarah cried. “I want the pink coat.” “That coat is smaller than the other ones,” Papa said.

He just wanted to say goodbye to Bassanio and ask him to tell Portia that Antonio was a good friend. Bassanio felt sad that his best friend was facing death because of borrowing money to help him. Antonio, however, considered himself lucky, as he would never become old or sick. Bassanio said he would do anything he could to save Antonio. He would rather die or give up his wife if it could help Antonio. His wife, Portia, disguised (伪装) as the judge, was not happy to hear this. “Let me know the judgement (判决)!” Shylock shouted. Portia said, “You have the right to take one pound of the merchant’s flesh (肉)! That is what the contract (合同) says.” Shylock held his knife and told Antonio to get ready. “Wait!” exclaimed (大喊) Portia. “You will not do anything that is not written in the contract. Is that right, Shylock?” “Yes, that’s right,” replied Shylock. “Well,” said the young judge, “the contract does not say anything about taking his blood. You can’t take even one drop of his blood. If you do that, all of your wealth will be taken!” Now it was Graziano’s turn to praise the wisdom of the judge. “Do you hear that, Shylock?” Portia asked, “You want justice (公平),” Portia said to Shylock, “and you will get it. In fact, you’ll receive more justice than you ask for.” “I’m willing to accept your money. Give me ninety thousand dollars,” Shylock said. He began to feel sick. Bassanio was happy to give him the money, Portia, however, had more to say. “Wait!” the judge said again. “It was not written in the contract. Shylock said that he would not do anything that was not in the contract.” “Just give me the money I lent you. I won’t even ask for interest,” Shylock said. Bassanio was ready to give it to him, but Portia stopped him again. Shylock knew that he would not get one pound of flesh or his money. He decided to go home. “Wait!” said Portia, for the third time. “The law of Venice says that if you plan to kill any citizen (公民) of Venice, you will lose everything that you own.

Mrs. Prig, the mother, was told that I played chess; and she begged me to give her young son a game. ‘He’s only ten.’ she said, ‘I’ve been told that he plays quite well. ‘ “Well, as you can guess, I wasn’t too happy. A player likes the opponent (对手) to play as well as he does. But it was holiday time and I agreed to play. We placed the board in the garden. The game began. I hoped it would be quick — and so it was. “I soon knew that David Prig was no learner. After ten minutes his sister came outside and began to play tennis against a wall. The boy seemed to lose interest in our game. He moved a piece (棋子) without care. I gave my attention to the board. “Call me when you are ready, Mr. Watson,” he said. When I was ready? I looked up. He had gone off to play with his sister. I studied the board, and found I was driven into corner. So it went on with David: a quick move, then tennis, back to the board, then back to his sister.

He traveled a thousand miles across China with his university, Zhejiang University, during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (抗日战争). The Chinese government wanted to keep the university students safe because they were important for the country’s future. As the university planned for the journey, the Head Librarian of Zhejiang Library, asked the university to take a collection of books with them. The books were called “Siku Quanshu”. Created in the 18th century, this was a huge encyclopedia (百科全书) with 2.3 million pages and about 997 million words. It was so important that plans were made to protect it at any cost, even though it added another 230 boxes to the students’ cargo. The journey was not easy. Students and teachers were facing the dangers from air attacks. They were always tired and hungry. They had to sleep on the ground in old temples but they continued their classes whenever they could. To protect the books, they tried to move by boat or truck whenever possible; at other times, they would put the boxes into carts (手推车). Sometimes the students had to carry some of the books in their backpacks. One scary moment was when a box of the Siku Quanshu books fell into a river. They quickly saved the books and dried them in a local temple. After 1,400 miles and 28 months on the road, the university group finally reached a small town called Zunyi in Guizhou province. They stayed there in simple classrooms and dorms, until the war moved deeper into China. To further protect the Siku Quanshu, the books were hidden in a nearby cave, guarded by university staff. The books made it through the war in surprisingly good condition and were sent back to Zhejiang Library.

One way of catching them is by fingerprinting. Fingerprinting is the study of the patterns on our fingertips. We have known that no two fingerprints are exactly the same for hundreds of years. However, it wasn’t until 1910 that the first criminal in the USA was convicted (被判有罪) using fingerprint evidence. Early on the morning of September 19, 1910, Hiller’s wife noticed that the light which they usually left on was off. When Hiller went to find out what was happening, he saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. The stranger had broken in and wanted to steal. Hiller and the stranger started to fight, but the stranger had a gun. He shot Hiller twice and ran away. Hiller’s wife ran to Hiller when she heard the gunshots but found him dead. So she called the police. Soon after, the police caught Thomas Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house. The only problem was no one saw the criminal. However, the police had started using fingerprinting at that time. According to Hiller’s wife, only several hours before Hiller’s death, he had painted some wood near the kitchen window. Then the police checked the wood completely and found some fingerprints in the wet paint. During the trial (审判), the police proved that the fingerprints belonged to Jennings, and he was convicted of Hiller’s murder. Since then, fingerprinting has helped in the conviction of hundreds of thousands of criminals. 1. What helped the police convict the murderer of Hiller? A. B. C. D. 2. Which paragraph shows how Hiller was killed? A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4. 3. What is the right order of the case? ①The stranger shot Hiller twice and ran away. ②Jennings was convicted of Hiller’s murder. ③Hiller saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. ④Hiller painted some wood near the kitchen window. ⑤The police found Jennings’ fingerprints in the wet paint. ⑥The police caught Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house. A. ③→④→①→⑤→⑥→② B. ③→④→⑤→①→②→⑥ C. ④→③→①→⑤→②→⑥ D. ④→③→①→⑥→⑤→② 4. How does the writer end the passage? A. By drawing a conclusion. B. By providing a surprise ending, C. By leading in a question. D.

Gardening Course Every September, our city has a special festival. Crowds of happy people go to the park, waving ribbons in their hands. That’s because the gardening competition takes place there. For Julie and me, it was a pity that we couldn’t take part in the competition, for that was also the first day of our high school. We buried ourselves in choosing courses. We wanted to learn all about plants, gardening and farming. Finally, a course called Agriculture and Wildlife came into our sight. We thought it would help us succeed as gardeners. Project presentation After a year’s study, Julie advised me to give a presentation. There was a small plastic model of my idea on the table. On the other side of the table, my teachers were waiting to see my project—the green farm. “Good morning!” I said “During my studies I’ve learned a lot about city farming. Now. I want to do something with what I’ve learned.” I showed them the model. “This is the high street of our town. This is an old, nine-floor car park. No one has used it for the last two years and it’s now for sale.” I continued the presentation. They could see my designs on the big screen when I talked. “I’ve designed a city farm using the car park building. There will be eight floors to farm fruit and vegetables. This design can help us collect rainwater to wet the soil. And we can also use energy from the sun to power the special growing lights. “ “I will hire the space out to local people and they will sell everything good enough for the environment in local shops. Also, the ninth floor will be for those who want to grow their own plants.” My audience looked interested and my project got the highest marks in my class. But in the real world. it couldn’t happen because the car park was not available. ▲ Later, Julie helped me search the town for the perfect place for gardening, not in front of the Town Hall or the shopping centre. We tried to look for something different. Somewhere that was not the best neighbourhood, but a poor one. One where the road was full of holes and the pavement (人行道) was all broken. At last, we made it. In the neighbourbood, we posted letters through people’s doors with gardening instructions. More and more people cared about that and began to plant vegetable gardens. Then in the same neighbourhood, we put grass over those broken old pavements for the kids to play on. Finally, we put up a sign that said, “Have fun here.” When we finished, we were both covered in soil and completely exhausted. But Julie put an arm around my shoulders and smiled. “Not bad!” she said. “We can do more to make our town greener!”. 1. The writer mentioned the gardening competition to ________.

As kids ran towards the campfire, Miss King turned to Quill, “I’ll leave for a while, just bring the kids watermelons and tell them a story.” “Sure.” said Quill, his hands becoming wet. Quill was good at showing kids how to climb rocks, but he was not a good storyteller. Quill asked in a low voice, “What kind of story do you like?” A boy named Caden answered, “A ghost story!” Alice rolled her eyes and other kids also shouted, “Quill will tell a lovely story, Caden.” “A ghost story!” Caden insisted. Just then, Quill felt a pull from Emma, the quietest in the group, “I’m afraid of ghost stories.” “What am I going to tell?” Quill thought and then said slowly, “I’m going to tell…a…a toast story.” Caden protested. “A toast story? I want a ghost story!” “You’ll see,” Quill said, “Long long ago, there was a piece of bread... named Bob.” Some kids smiled. Quill talked faster, “One day, Bob was put onto a wooden platform. Bob started crying.” “Bread can’t cry!” Caden shouted. Quill’s ears turned red. “What happened next?” Emma asked. Quill had no idea, but he quickly looked at Caden, “Cade n is going to tell us.” Caden sat up, “Am I?” “Yes, it’s a group story.” Quill answered. Caden said in a scaring voice, “Bob was sure this was the end of his day. Then, a long, shiny thing appeared over him.” “A knife!” Alice shouted. “Alice, it’s your turn.” Quill said. Alice added, “Then something dropped. The knife spread it all over Bob.” “Salad cream.” said Emma and pulled Quill’s T-shirt. Alice continued, “Suddenly, a giant hand lifted Bob towards a big hole. Bob screamed, ‘Help!’ ” Caden wanted to cut in, but Alice stopped him. Quill smiled at Emma. Emma took a deep breath, and said, “Bob screamed again. The hand was surprised and dropped Bob. Bob ran away.” “So, the bread is free.” Caden cut in. “Not finished!” Emma shouted, “Just then, a bread truck appeared. Bob ran towards it. But something big followed him.” “What was that?” a kid asked. Emma sat forward. Caden could feel his own breath, as if he was also there with Bob. SNAP! Emma clapped her hands.

How many kinds of plants are there in the world? Lucy Braun wondered that as a child. She showed great interest in plants at a young age. She often had energetic walks with her family through the nearby woods. Some plants and wildflowers seemed to shout at her with their wild colours. Others hid behind rocks. Lucy looked at the shapes of leaves as she walked in the woods. She kept a record of what she saw. She also learnt to draw what she saw. Then she could compare all kinds of plants. Later, Lucy grew more and more interested in botany, the study of plants. Branching Out At university, Lucy took classes in geology, or the study of rocks and minerals. Her work with geologists changed how she looked at the natural world. She continued her studies in botany as well. Lucy also took classes in ecology (生态学). Lucy believed that plant life in some are as was able to move to other places over time. In Full Bloom In 1917, Lucy began to teach botany at a university. She lived in a house near the woods. Lucy collected plants from all around the country. She took many photos of them, too. Colour photography was still new then. Because of that, people enjoyed her lessons and photos a lot.The ▲ of Labour (劳动) Later in her life, Lucy wrote many field guides. In 1950, she published her most important guide. It describes the plants in the forests across the country. Ecologists still use it to study changes in the forests over time. Today, Lucy has a few plants named after her. One of them is Lucy Braun’s snakeroot, which is now in danger. Lucy’s work in the protection of nature may help prevent its disappearance. Lucy Braun lived to be 81.

The Collection of the Plants C. The Story of a Great Scientist D. The Lesson by a Scientist 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D 4. C 【导语】本文主要讲述了Lucy Braun作为一位伟大的植物学家的故事，包括她的成长经历、学术研究和对植物保护的贡献。 1. 推理判断题。根据“Some plants and wildflowers seemed to shout at her with their wild colours”可知，植物的颜色非常鲜艳，仿佛在向她呼喊，说明这些植物看起来充满了生机。故选A。 2. 主旨大意题。通读第二段可知，第二段主要讲述了Lucy在大学期间如何学习和研究植物，包括她学习地质学和生态学的经历，以及这些学科如何改变了她看待自然界的方式。故选B。 3. 推理判断题。根据上下文，最后一部分讲述了Lucy晚年写了许多野外指南，并在1950年出版了她最重要的指南，这些指南描述了全国各地森林中的植物，生态学家仍然使用这些指南来研究森林随时间的变化。因此，选项D “Fruits”（成果）最为合适。故选D。 4. 最佳标题题。整篇文章讲述了Lucy Braun作为一位伟大的植物学家的故事，包括她的成长经历、学术研究和对植物保护的贡献。因此，选项C“The Story of a Great Scientist”是最合适的标题。故选C。 [06]（2024·江苏常州·中考真题）My father was busy fixing Belinda’s spaceship all afternoon. In the evening, I went to the landing place. “Dear Father,” I said politely. “Have you found Belinda’s parents yet?” “Not yet, my dear.” He shook his head. I felt relaxed. I didn’t want to meet Belinda’s parents—they might be ten times as loud and bossy as she was. But Belinda had followed me. “Not yet?” she shouted. “Why not? I’ll send them a message! They’ll listen to me!” Belinda ran to the radio. She shouted into it so loudly that I had to cover all my four ears. “Mummy! Daddy! I’m on an awful spaceship full of purple people! Come and find me now!” “Poor Belinda!” my sister came and said. “Her parents must be missing her.” “Huh!” I snorted (发出哼声). “Missing her? You’re joking! Who would want such a bossy kid back? They probably lost her on purpose.” Belinda’s face clouded. I thought she was going to shout again, but she didn’t. Instead, something very strange happened — her eyes began to water! “Oh, help!” said Roa. “Is she dying?” I felt terrible. “Don’t die, Belinda! I didn’t mean it.” Then Belinda opened her mouth wide and shouted, “What if it’s true? What if they’ve gone away and left me here forever?” We were all so busy comforting Belinda that we didn’t notice the soft knock of a ship landing outside. We didn’t see two tall people come out of it until Belinda ran out in excitement. “Mummy! Daddy!” Belinda’s parents were even uglier than she was, but they looked polite. “Hello, dear,” the female said. “We’re sorry we kept you waiting.” We smiled as the three of them boarded their spaceship. “Goodbye!” shouted Belinda. “Goodbye!

It was almost two a. m. Everyone else was asleep. I had my flashlight (手电筒) on under the sleeping bag. Maybe the light was why I couldn’t sleep, but I was too afraid to turn it off. What had happened kept coming back to my mind. When we got back to the camp, no one noticed we’d been gone. The teachers and all the other kids were still watching the movie. They didn’t know how something bad had just happened to me and Jack. It’s so strange how that can be, how you could have a night that’s the worst in your life, but to everybody else it’s just a usual night. Amos, Miles and Henry brought us back to our seats. Then they returned to their own seats. In a way, everything was exactly as we had left it. The sky was the same. The movie was the same. Everyone’s faces were the same. Mine was the same. But something was different. Something had changed. Home “So, do you want to hear about the bad part or the good part first?” I asked Mum. “Whatever you want to talk about,” she answered. “Well, except for last night, I had a fantastic time,” I said. “I feel like they ruined (毁坏) the whole trip for me.” “No, sweetie. Don’t let them do that to you. You were there for more than forty-eight hours, and that awful part lasted one hour. Don’t let them take that away from you, okay?” “I know.” I nodded. “But do I always have to worry about bad guys like that? Like when I grow up, is it always going to be like this?” “There are always going to be bad guys in the world, Auggie,” she said, looking at me. “But I really believe there are more good people on this earth than bad people, and the good people watch out for each other and take care of each other. Just like Jack was there for you. And Amos. And those other kids.” “Oh yeah, Miles and Henry,” I answered. “They were amazing, too. It’s very strange because Miles and Henry haven’t even really been very nice to me at all during the year.” “Sometimes people surprise us,” she said, rubbing the top of my head. 1. Why couldn’t Auggie fall asleep? A. He kept thinking about something. B. He was doing bedtime reading. C. He was looking for his flashlight. D. He didn’t like his sleeping bag. 2. According to the first part, what was different at the camp? A. The sky. B. Auggie’s face. C. The movie. D. Auggie’s feeling. 3. Auggie was worried that ______. A. his mum would feel unhappy B. bad guys would always be around C. he would not have a good trip D. Jack would not be his friend any more 4. What do we know about Miles and Henry? A. They ruined Auggie’s whole trip. B. They took something away from Auggie. C. They were nice to Auggie this time. D. They were Auggie’s best friends. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B 4.

She’s so happy, and the dog is happy, too! “I want to call him Eco,” says Holly. “Come here, Eco!” And Eco wags (摇摆) his tail. “That dog is your responsibility (责任), Holly,” says her father. “No problem!” Holly agrees. Before school, Holly takes Eco for his first morning walk. She feels very tired. It’s really cold and dark—and it’s so early! But Eco doesn’t mind.

Jordan took a deep breath as he stood in the doorway, looking in at the basketball court. Maybe today I’ll make history, he thought. The city’s youth basketball league was holding a celebration. Today’s championship game marked 50 years since the league’s first title game (冠军争夺赛). Before the game, Jordan looked over a special program. It listed the winners of each championship game and the top scorers. Jordan stopped when he read the name of the top scorer from a game 30 years before. “Devin, look!” he said to his friend, “You see who has the all-time record? My dad! Twenty-four points. But he never told me that.” “Twenty-four points,” Devin said. “That’s great.” Jordan’s best was 19 points. He was the league’s top scorer. When his parents showed up at the gym, Jordan brought the program over to them. His dad laughed. “I had quite a game that day,” he said. “But look at the score. I prefer to trade all my points for a win.” Jordan hadn’t noticed that his dad’s team had lost by one point. “That was a great group of teammates,” Dad said. “I’m still friends with a lot of them.” As game time came near, Jordan slapped hands with his teammate Tara and then started to warm up. The courts filled up quickly. Jordan felt strangely calm. He’d played so many games in this gym that it was like his own home. Jordan had led his team to a victory over the Lions last season. Why shouldn’t today be like that? Jordan grew even more confident when he hit the first 2 shots (投篮). The Lions called a break. Jordan ran to the bench and jumped up and down with excitement. “Great start,”Coach said. “But those guys are tough. They’ll come back on us.” He was right. By half time, the Lions had pulled ahead, 27-24. Jordan looked up at his parents. His dad nodded and called, “Great work!” But Jordan didn’t feel quite as confident as he had before. The teams traded baskets throughout the second half, with neither building a lead. Eleven seconds left. The scoreboard was clear: LIONS 51. BADGERS 51. Coach told Jordan to bring the ball up the court. “Look for Devin inside, but take the shot if you’re open,” he said. Jordan glanced at his dad again. His dad pointed to Jordan, then held up two fingers on one hand and three fingers on the other. “Me?” Jordan mouthed. Dad nodded. Jordan had scored 23 points. Another basket would break the record. And it was the right time to do it! Jordan ran right, then left, but he was still a long way from the basket. The viewers started counting the seconds. “Four... three... two.” Jordan rose to shoot. As the Lions rushed toward him, he passed the ball to Devin—wide open near the basket. Devin turned and shot. The ball fell cleanly through the net for the winning points. “Yes!” Jordan shouted. After celebrating with his team, he ran to hug his parents. “You still have the record,” he told his dad. Dad smiled. “You have something more important. A championship. And great teammates. Congratulations on your history!” 1. Which of the following is true according to the article? A. Dad’s team got the championship 30 years before. B.

He became an orphan (孤儿) at the age of two. Then he lived with his grandpa in a small house. Life was harder for them. Their life depended on Nello’s grandpa. Every morning, the old man would collect fresh milk from one house to another. He then had to load (装载) the milk on a cart and sent it to the city. Growing up a little older, Nello would try to help his grandpa to travel from Flanders to the city. One day, as Nello and his grandpa were going home from the city they saw a large dog lying on the side of the road. The dog was motionless. “What happened?” asked Nello. “Is the dog dead?” His grandpa touched the nose of the dog with his hand and examined the body of the dog. He then said to Nello, “The dog is seriously ill. We have to take him to a vet (兽医), or he will die.” With the words, his grandpa put the dog on the cart and the two went home. The fact was that the dog was abandoned (抛弃) by his master because of his serious illness. Seeing the dying dog, Nello was heart-broken. The kind hearted boy took good care of him. Even though Nello and his grandpa did not have enough to eat, he would still feed the dog with milk and bread. Day by day, the dog began to stand on his feet and became stronger and stronger. “We should give him a name,” said Nello one day to his grandpa. “That’s a good idea,” replied his grandpa. “What name do you want to give him? How about Patrasche?” said Nello. “Patrasche is a beautiful name,” said his grandpa. From then on, Patrasche became a member of the family. One day, as Nello and his grandpa loaded the cart with milk and were ready to start their journey to the city, Patrasche stood in front of the cart. “Out of the way, Patrasche,” said Nello. “We’ll be late.” But Patrasche refused to move. He was simply staring at Grandpa and wagging(摇摆) his tail. “What does he want to do?” asked Nello. His grandpa smiled and said. “I believe our Patrasche wants to help pull the cart.” Hearing Grandpa’s words, Patrasche was wagging his tail even harder. Patrasche had been badly treated by his master all his life. Never had anyone treated him nicely as Nello and his grandpa. Patrasche was thankful for the kindness he received, so he wanted to help, Grandpa tied a stripe on Patrasche, and he started to pull the cart right away. From then on, people in town would see such a scene a large dog was pulling a cart loaded with milk with the grandpa pushing behind and Nello helping at the side. (Adapted from A Dog of Flanders) 1.

It was also Miss Caroline’s first day to be a teacher. Miss Caroline began the day by reading us a story about cats. Then she started to teach us the alphabet (字母表). When Miss Caroline discovered that I was literate (有读写能力的), she said, “Tell your father not to teach you any more. It’s best to begin reading and writing with a fresh mind.” After supper that night, Atticus sat down with the paper and called, “Scout, ready to read?” I told Atticus I didn’t feel very well and didn’t think I’d go to school any more if it was all right with him. “You never went to school and you do all right, so I’ll just stay home too. You can teach me like Granddaddy taught you.” “No, I can’t,” said Atticus. “I have to make a living. Besides, they’d put me in prison if I kept you at home. Now what’s the matter?” I told him what happened at school. “Miss Caroline said you taught me all wrong, so we can’t ever read any more. Please don’t send me back, please sir.” “First of all,” he said, “if you can learn a simple trick, Scout, you’ll get along a lot better with all kinds of people. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view—” “Sir?” “—until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” Atticus continued, “You learned many things today. Miss Caroline learned several things herself. We could not expect her to learn all our ways in one day, and we should understand her when she knew no better.” “But if I keep on going to school, we can’t ever read any more…” “That’s really worrying you, isn’t it?” “Yes, sir.” When Atticus looked at me, I saw the look on his face that always made me expect something. “Do you know what a compromise (妥协) is?” he asked. “Breaking the law?” “No, an agreement. It works this way,” he said. “If you promise me to go to school, we’ll go on reading every night as usual. Is it OK?” “Yes sir!” 1. What happened to Scout on her first day at school? A.

He has been recognized as the oldest male to surf（冲浪）by the Guinness World Records. But maybe he will just keep surfing. “I think it would be interesting to try to surf until I’m 100,” Sano said. “I think I take better care of myself when I have dreams like this. Even now, I take better care of myself than I did before.” Sano said he got the idea to try surfing from a worker at his local bank. The man’s skin was always dark and he did not look like a usual worker. His secret to keep healthy and energetic, he said, was surfing. So, Sano found a teacher. Sano gets out most weekends on the black-sand beach. “I don’t consider myself an old man,” he said in his wet suit, board standing next to him. “I have never thought of myself as an old person. I always feel that I can still move forward. I can still do it. I can still enjoy it.” Several young students who also work with Sano’s surf teacher talked about Sano. “I think age doesn’t matter in surfing,” a 12-year-old surfer said. “He is so amazing,” added his younger brother. “To be honest, I was surprised by his age,” said Sano’s surfing teacher. “I was worried that he would get hurt. I did not know how fit he was.” Sano still works 9-to-5 at his job. Surfing helps make him less stressed. “People often say that surfing is life itself,” he said. “I think it is true.” 1. What does the underlined word “recognized” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Led. B. Given. C. Accepted. D. Collected. 2. Paragraph 3 mainly tells us ________.

A. is too old to start surfing B. gets bored with surfing C. feels stressed after surfing D. enjoys a lot from surfing 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A 4. D 【导语】本文主要介绍了被吉尼斯世界纪录认定为年龄最大的男性冲浪者Seiichi Sano。 1. 词句猜测题。根据“He has been recognized as the oldest male to surf（冲浪）by the Guinness World Records.”可知，他被吉尼斯世界纪录认定为年龄最大的男性冲浪者。recognized意为“认定”，与accepted同义。故选C。 2. 段落大意题。根据“His secret to keep healthy and energetic, he said, was surfing. So, Sano found a teacher.”可知，第三段讲述他尝试去冲浪的原因。故选B。 3. 推理判断题。根据“I think age doesn’t matter in surfing”和“To be honest, I was surprised by his age”可知，师生们很佩服他冲浪没有受到年龄的限制，可推测他们都很尊重他。故选A。 4. 推理判断题。根据“Surfing helps make him less stressed. ‘People often say that surfing is life itself,’ he said. ‘I think it is true.’”可知，冲浪有助于减轻他的压力。他认同“冲浪就是生活本身”这种说法，说明他很喜欢冲浪。故选D。 【限时练二：2025年江苏名校模拟·阅读理解记叙文】 [01]（2025·江苏宿迁·一模）When Antonio told Bassanio to go to town and borrow money, Bassanio visited Shylock. He asked Shylock to lend him thirty thousand dollars and said he would pay it back in three months. “How do I know you can pay it back?” asked Shylock. Bassanio smiled. “My friend Antonio will help me. If I do not pay you in three months, he will do it for me.” Now it was Shylock’s turn to smile. Perhaps this would be a chance for him to hurt his enemy in some way. “I understand that Antonio has some ships in different parts of the world,” he said, “and that when they come back, he will have plenty of money. However, there are many risks in his business. There are pirates (海盗), and there are storms, and everything could be lost. But I am not worried about him because I know that Antonio is a good man. Thirty thousand dollars is a lot of money, but I believe he will help you.” Shylock went to visit Antonio. When he saw Antonio, he remembered how much he hated him. However, he did not show his hatred (仇恨). He tried to be friendly. “It is thirty thousand dollars for three months, isn’t it?” he asked. Antonio and Bassanio agreed. “What interest (利息) will you pay?” he asked. After that, Antonio and Shylock were arguing (争论) about interest. Antonio called Shylock some bad names. “He looks like a good apple,” he told Bassanio, “but inside he is rotten.” Bassanio was worried. Perhaps Shylock would not lend him the money, so he spoke to Antonio. Antonio was sorry. “Would you still lend us the money?” Antonio asked Shylock. “Come with me to the judge,” said Shylock, “so that he can write the contract (契约). I will lend you thirty thousand dollars for three months. You will pay no interest. Just for fun, however, let’s agree that if you do not pay me on time, you will give me one pound of your flesh (肉) from wherever I choose to take it!” Antonio agreed. He even told Bassanio that he thought Shylock was kind because he was not making them pay interest, but Bassanio did not agree. “I won’t let you do that for me,” he insisted. “The risk is too big. I would rather stay poor and in debt (欠债)。” —Adapted from The Merchant of Venice 1. Who would be Shylock’s enemy according to the passage? A. Pirates. B. Antonio. C. Bassanio. D. Nobody. 2.

She was a bright and curious child who did well at school. At that time, the University of Warsaw didn’t accept female students. But that didn’t stop young Marie. Instead, she learned in secret. She went to informal classes which were held in ever-changing places, called the “Floating University”. In 1891, she went to Sorbonne, a university in Paris that treated women equally.

In the pink coat she looked like a spring flower. “Sarah!” Mama said. Sarah looked up. Mama was standing behind her. She was holding the brown coat. “I’m afraid the pink coat will only fit one year,” Mama said, taking a step closer. “And there’s no one to pass it on to,” said Papa. And the shopkeeper said, “It’s wise to save money.” Sarah backed away. No one was going to put her into a raincoat again. She wanted to be a flower. “Sarah!” It was Papa.

Stay here and wait.” He finished weighing all the other sacks, and then turned to Tom. “Come here,” said Legree. “I want to give you a better job than picking cotton, and you can start tonight: take this woman and whip her—you know how.” “I’m sorry, Master,” said Tom. “I can’t do it.” Legree whipped Tom across his face and then hit him with his hands many times. “There!” he said. “Now will you tell me you can’t do it?” “Yes, Master,” said Tom, with blood running down his face. “I will work night and day, but I will never whip another person.” “I bought you, and you’re mine, body and soul (灵魂),” Legree said, kicking Tom. “My soul isn’t yours, Master!

But when she got to the new school, she felt very lonely. With a sigh (叹气), Emma turned her attention back to the present. The bus came to a stop. “Welcome to the Leinweber Nature Centre,” her teacher said. “A guide will give us a presentation about animals, and then you’ll help to feed the baby squirrels. Now, I want everyone to find a partner.” Emma didn’t have any friends yet—who would be her partner? Emma got close to Julia, a talkative and outgoing girl. “Could I be your partner?” Emma asked uncertainly. “Sure,” said Julia warmly. Together, the girls walked into the centre. After the presentation, a keeper showed them how to hold the bottle of milk for baby squirrels. Then the girls started to feed their own baby squirrels. After the babies finished eating, the keeper asked, “Would you like to help feed the adult squirrels too?” Emma was quick to volunteer, but when the keeper opened the first cage, the squirrel inside jumped out. Emma remained calm, held out her hand, made quiet sounds, and then quickly got it. “Wow!” Julia said. “You’re always so quiet. I thought you were afraid of everything, but you were brave.” “I know that when animals are frightened or excited, you have to stay calm.” The keeper nodded in agreement and asked Emma, “Would you be interested in volunteering to help out with the animals at the centre?” “Interested? I would love to work here! What an opportunity!” Emma was excited. That afternoon, in the bus on the way back to school, Emma sat next to Julia, her new friend.

And that made me never get on with any friends around me. Almost no one used to talk to me or invite me to parties. I always lived in my own world. What was worse was that someone always bullied (欺负) me, even my closest “friend”. One day after school, an older boy kept calling me “Fat Boy” all the way home on the bus. I was shy and afraid, and wanted to cry. At that time, I hoped my best friend sitting behind me might stand up to help me. However, he jumped up and also laughed at me. You must know how I was feeling then! And later I became older and got to know what I should do. I started exercising more and eating less. And I kept working hard to get better grades at school. Just half a year later, I was much thinner and healthier. And I was a top student in our class too. Quickly, I became one of the most popular students at school. Being fat isn’t a crime (罪过). However, you can’t stop other people from laughing at you. So you must do something to help yourself. Remember that only you can bring yourself hope and success. 1.

Almost no one used to talk to me or invite me to parties. I always lived in my own world.”可知，作者小时候害羞、安静和肥胖，几乎没有人和他说话或邀请他参加聚会，他总是生活在自己的世界里，因此可以判断他小时候的生活状态是“可怕的”。故选D。 2. 细节理解题。根据第二段“One day after school, an older boy kept calling me ‘Fat Boy’ all the way home on the bus. I was shy and afraid, and wanted to cry.”可知，一天放学后，一个大男孩在回家的公交车上一直叫他“胖子”，他很害羞和害怕，想哭，由此可知，一个大男孩在公交车上伤害了他，而不是他的朋友帮了他，也不是三个男孩在嘲笑他，更没有和两个男孩打架。故选A。 3. 推断判断题。根据第三段“And later I became older and got to know what I should do. I started exercising more and eating less. And I kept working hard to get better grades at school. Just half a year later, I was much thinner and healthier. And I was a top student in our class too. Quickly, I became one of the most popular students at school”以及“Remember that only you can bring yourself hope and success.”可知，后来作者长大了，知道了自己应该做什么，开始多锻炼，少吃，并努力在学校里取得更好的成绩，仅仅半年后，他变得又瘦又健康，是班上的尖子生，也是学校里最受欢迎的学生之一，最后作者告诉我们只有你自己才能给自己带来希望和成功，由此可知，最后帮助作者感觉更好的是他自己，而不是一个大男孩、他的老师或他最好的朋友。故选B。 4. 推理判断题。根据第四段“Remember that only you can bring yourself hope and success.”可知，只有你自己才能真正帮助自己。故选C。 [09]（24-25九年级下·江苏南通·开学考试）In films, spies (间谍) are lucky people.

He just wanted to say goodbye to Bassanio and ask him to tell Portia that Antonio was a good friend. Bassanio felt sad that his best friend was facing death because of borrowing money to help him. Antonio, however, considered himself lucky, as he would never become old or sick. Bassanio said he would do anything he could to save Antonio. He would rather die or give up his wife if it could help Antonio. His wife, Portia, disguised (伪装) as the judge, was not happy to hear this. “Let me know the judgement (判决)!” Shylock shouted. Portia said, “You have the right to take one pound of the merchant’s flesh (肉)! That is what the contract (合同) says.” Shylock held his knife and told Antonio to get ready. “Wait!” exclaimed (大喊) Portia. “You will not do anything that is not written in the contract. Is that right, Shylock?” “Yes, that’s right,” replied Shylock. “Well,” said the young judge, “the contract does not say anything about taking his blood. You can’t take even one drop of his blood. If you do that, all of your wealth will be taken!” Now it was Graziano’s turn to praise the wisdom of the judge. “Do you hear that, Shylock?” Portia asked, “You want justice (公平),” Portia said to Shylock, “and you will get it. In fact, you’ll receive more justice than you ask for.” “I’m willing to accept your money. Give me ninety thousand dollars,” Shylock said. He began to feel sick. Bassanio was happy to give him the money, Portia, however, had more to say. “Wait!” the judge said again. “It was not written in the contract. Shylock said that he would not do anything that was not in the contract.” “Just give me the money I lent you. I won’t even ask for interest,” Shylock said. Bassanio was ready to give it to him, but Portia stopped him again. Shylock knew that he would not get one pound of flesh or his money. He decided to go home. “Wait!” said Portia, for the third time. “The law of Venice says that if you plan to kill any citizen (公民) of Venice, you will lose everything that you own.

He traveled a thousand miles across China with his university, Zhejiang University, during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (抗日战争). The Chinese government wanted to keep the university students safe because they were important for the country’s future. As the university planned for the journey, the Head Librarian of Zhejiang Library, asked the university to take a collection of books with them. The books were called “Siku Quanshu”. Created in the 18th century, this was a huge encyclopedia (百科全书) with 2.3 million pages and about 997 million words. It was so important that plans were made to protect it at any cost, even though it added another 230 boxes to the students’ cargo. The journey was not easy. Students and teachers were facing the dangers from air attacks. They were always tired and hungry. They had to sleep on the ground in old temples but they continued their classes whenever they could. To protect the books, they tried to move by boat or truck whenever possible; at other times, they would put the boxes into carts (手推车). Sometimes the students had to carry some of the books in their backpacks. One scary moment was when a box of the Siku Quanshu books fell into a river. They quickly saved the books and dried them in a local temple. After 1,400 miles and 28 months on the road, the university group finally reached a small town called Zunyi in Guizhou province. They stayed there in simple classrooms and dorms, until the war moved deeper into China. To further protect the Siku Quanshu, the books were hidden in a nearby cave, guarded by university staff. The books made it through the war in surprisingly good condition and were sent back to Zhejiang Library. This amazing story shows how a group of young students and their teachers did everything they could to protect their culture’s treasures. They faced many dangers and hardships, but they never gave up. They worked together to keep their knowledge safe. 1. What does the underlined word “cargo” in Parapraph 2 probably mean? A.
