[对应学生用书P481] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2025·福州质检)Jill Wheatley was a PE teacher in Germany.On the weekends she competed in marathons around Europe.But life threw her a near deadly blow.While teaching a PE class，she was hit on the head with a baseball.The impact was so great that it left her with a brain injury and 70 percent vision loss，permanently blinding her in one eye.She spent 26 months in seven different hospitals，at times wishing it would just all end. Desperately，Wheatley set out to find comfort and healing (治疗) in nature.She travelled to Nepal where a friend convinced her to run in the Annapurna 100 with him.The power from that race changed her life and eventually had her look up at the tops of the mountains.Project Vision 8000 was born.And she began her mission to stand on the top of the world's 14 highest mountains，towering 8000 meters above sea level，to show herself and others the power of the choice and possibility. Colors and touch help guide her on the mountain and she has never once felt too tired to carry on.“The only constant thing is change，so when the weather gets really bad or a storm is coming in，I know it is going to pass.” So far，she's had few problems standing among giants，but she admits she continues to struggle with overcoming the “mountains of her mind”．Having already stared death in the face，Wheatley has great respect for the mountains and the mission she is on.But she's not scared.The experience almost claimed her life，but it is now the driving force and fuel behind her success.At every icy peak，she smiles and takes a quick video with a breathless “So very thankful” whispered into the thin air.

C．She lost her sight completely. D．She was attacked on purpose in a class. 解析　B　细节理解题。 根据第一段的“While teaching a PE class，she was hit on the head with a baseball...blinding her in one eye”可知，Wheatley在给学生上体育课时，被一只棒球击中了头部，这致使她脑部损伤和一只眼睛永久失明。故选B。A项“她在赛跑中位列最后”，B项“她遭受头部损伤”，C项“她完全失明”，D项“她在课堂上被有意攻击”。 2．What drove Wheatley to launch Project Vision 8，000?

Then I realized I had been hurt by the word “but”，and that I had wounded others，too，by using the word thoughtlessly.For example，when I was a teacher and edited my students' stories，I would always say their content was good，but then I would add comments such as “but you need to make your characters more realistic”．I could have said，“Your content is good and making your characters more believable will make it even better.” In setting up guidelines for commenting on writers，I realize we need to praise each other，make helpful remarks，and then praise each other again，without using the word “but”．I remember a college professor who said，“There is no such thing as constructive criticism.Criticism is criticism.” She has now passed on，but her words remain with me always. My fourth­grade teacher's quote was aimed at what she thought was harmless playground teasing，but even teasing hurts.Today，we can read sad news related to many stories where people have been terribly hurt by ugly words and suffered a lot.Now I realize the importance of thinking before speaking，even to avoid seemingly unimportant words like “but”．Sticks and stones break our bones，but thoughtless words also do harm.They can leave marks for a lifetime. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了作者由自身经历及思考总结出了“说话前要多思考”的道理。 5．What changed the author's attitude to hurtful words? A．A teacher's advice. B．His personal experience. C．A college professor's words. D．A story by Linda O'Connell. 解析　D　细节理解题。由第一段中的“I changed my mind after reading Linda O'Connell's story”可知，作者因读了Linda O'Connell的故事后而改变了对伤害性语言的态度。故选D。 6．What message does the example in paragraph 2 convey? A．The author used “but” too often. B．The author could tolerate criticism. C．The misuse of “but” can hurt others. D．Realistic characters are needed in writing. 解析　C　推理判断题。第二段第一句提到作者意识到，自己曾被“但是”一词伤害到，而且自己也曾草率地用这个词伤害到了别人。接下来作者讲述了自己在给学生批阅文章时经常使用“但是”一词的经历，所以这一例子是用来说明but一词的错误使用会给他人造成伤害的。故选C。 7．Which words can best describe the author? A．Honest and warm­hearted. B．Devoted and cooperative. C．Optimistic and open­minded. D．Caring and self­reflective. 解析　D　推理判断题。由第二、三段以及最后一段中的“Now I realize the importance of thinking before speaking”可知，作者从自身经历意识到使用错误的语言会对他人造成伤害，以及说话前思考的重要性。由此可见，作者关心他人且善于自我反思。故选D。A项“诚实的且热心的”；B项“忠诚的且配合的”；C项“积极的且思想开明的”；D项“关心他人的且自我反思的”。 8．What is the text mainly about? A．The benefits of learning from mistakes. B．The long­lasting effect of hurtful words. C．The importance of using words thoughtfully. D．The difference between physical and emotional harm. 解析　C　主旨大意题。作者通过自己错误使用“但是”一词的经历，思考并总结出说话前要深思熟虑的道理，同时告诉人们错误的语言也会像“棍子和石头”一样带来伤害。由此可见，文章主要说明了谨慎使用语言的重要性。故选C。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2024·合肥质量检测)Abigail Adjiri took part in a competition for kids aged 7 through 12.She，at only 7，has taken Ghana by 1 ，winning over viewers with her impressive dance moves.It's not 2 for most people to become skilled dancers，especially for little Abigail who is 3 ． Abigail has been trained to 4 the vibrations (震动) she feels with her feet， 5 listening to the beat of the song.Her precise calculations have allowed her to 6 impressive moves.Still，Abigail's Mom was 7 about the fact that their goal was to get the 7­year­old a hearing aid—but they needed 8 ．They made this known on “Onua Showtime” with Nana Ama McBrown，a talk show in Ghana.
