My wife, Liz, and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary that year. It was a lovely event hosted by our sons for us. Many wonderful friends from the past surprised us with presents and congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana, and continued to Yellowstone National Park. It was a cold spring day, and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Alongside the road, there was still a great amount of snow remaining. The seenery was so impressive that we made numerous stops to record memories with my camera. At roughly the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the center of my camera lens. There were not many vehicles on the road. Occasionally, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, in rags, parked behind our car. As he approached us, his only words were, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife." I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could express our gratitude. The photo he took is one of the most cherished and prized of our trip. I learned my lesson somewhere I least expected it. God judges us just by our heart, so we should never judge a man by his appearance. If the motorcycle driver reads this story and remembers the situation, we would like to say "thank you" to him. 4．According to the passage, the trip was ______ . A．a gift for their wedding anniversary B．a suggestion from their friends C．in late autumn six year ago D．taken by train to the west 5．Which of the following can conclude the passage? A．There is no best, only bette. B．Don't judge a book by its cover. C．Put yourself in others' shoes. D．A contented mind is an everlasting feast. 6．The author was nervous when the motorcyclist offered to take a picture because _______. A．the motorcyclist would break the camera B．he could have lost the camera with memories C．the motorcyclist might not be good at taking pictures D．his wife might not be satisfied with the view there 7．Which of the following best describes the driver of the motorcycle? A．kind and straightforward B．cautious and admirable C．rich and skeptical D．creative and tolerant 【答案】4．A 5．B 6．B 7．A 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己和妻子在一次作为结婚礼物的旅行中难忘的事，告诉我们不要以貌取人的道理。 4．细节理解题。根据第一段种的Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west.可知， 我们给对方的礼物是开车去西部旅行。以及文章整体描述来看，本文讲述的这次旅行是结婚纪念日的礼物。故选A项。 5．主旨大意题。根据第四段中的God judges us just by our heart, so we should never judge a man by his appearance.可知， 神凭我们的心审判我们，所以我们决不可凭外貌审判人。这是本文要告诉我们的人生哲理，B选项“Don't judge a book by its cover.”表达的意思与主题契合。故选B项。 6．细节理解题。根据第三段中的I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories.可知， 我必须承认，我感到紧张，我们可能会被抢劫，我们只是创造了一些美好的回忆。由此可知，作者担心那个衣衫褴褛的人会抢走他的相机。故选B项。 7．推理判断题。从文中摩托车司机直接向作者要相机给他们拍照，并没有过多的言语，为作者和妻子创造了美好的回忆，由此推知，摩托车司机非常的善良而且直率。故选A项。 （三） （23-24高二下·内蒙古名校联盟·期中）Several art projects are on show to warn people of the climate change happening around us.

This event brings out so much enthusiasm in the community,” said organizer Karen Noble. “We’ll also go and surprise anyone we know who’s going to be lonely at Christmas.” Pallion has been at the heart of the community here since 1993, but the past couple of years have seen people increasingly struggling financially and feeling lonely. “This time last year, people were in great poverty,” said Karen. “But if we’ve done our job properly, they’ve become more financially resilient (可迅速恢复的) or less lonely and we should be helping different people this year. And a lot of those who were helped last year are volunteering for us now. People are so kind — we get loads of homemade thank-you cards. But I think the biggest thanks we get is knowing we’ve helped somebody to the point where they’re independent and getting on with life.” Karen and the team organize a wide range of activities, from after-school clubs and cookery sessions to line dancing and computer classes to keep older people connected. But all this wouldn’t be possible without funding from People’s Health Trust, with money raised through The Health Lottery (彩票). Every time you play The Health Lottery, not only could you win up to £100,000, but you’re also helping to raise much-needed funds that go straight to the heart of the community. “So playing The Health Lottery is not just the chance to win a prize. You could be making a real difference,” said Karen. 11．What can we know about Pallion Action Group from the first two paragraphs? A．It needs much support. B．Its main task is holding festivals.

And I was looking at my watch very often.   As the sun began to set, Henry had two visitors, Tom and Joe. They were two miners and were Henry's friends. They carried guitars and brought flowers and a bottle of whiskey. They put the flowers in vases and began to play some fast and lively songs. That night, they kept giving Henry glasses of whiskey, which they made him drink. When I reached for one of the two glasses left on the table, Tom stopped my arm. "Drop that glass and take the other one!" he whispered. He gave the remaining glass of whiskey to Henry just as the clock began to strike midnight. Henry emptied the glass. His face grew whiter and whiter. "Boys," he said, "I am feeling sick. I want to lie down." Henry was asleep almost before the words were out of his mouth. In a moment, his two friends had picked him up and carried him into the bedroom. They fastened the door and came back. They seemed to be getting ready to leave. So I said, "Please don't go gentlemen. She is coming back and will not know me. I am a stranger to her." They looked at each other. "Henry's wife has been dead for nineteen years," Tom said. "Dead?" I whispered. "Dead or worse," he said. "She went to see her parents about six months after she got married. On her way back, on a Saturday evening in June, when she was almost here, the Indians captured her. No one ever saw her again. Henry lost his mind. He thinks she is still alive. When June comes, he thinks she has gone on her trip to see her parents. Then he begins to wait for her to come back." "On the Saturday night she is supposed to come home, we come here to be with him. We put a sleeping drug in his drink so he will sleep through the night. Then he is all right for another year." Joe picked up his hat and his guitar. "We have done this every June for nineteen years," he said. He opened the door of the pretty little house and then they disappeared into the darkness. 24．What do you think Henry told the author previously? A．They would enjoy whiskey together.

The talented boy not only paints but also sells his artwork and donates the money. It all started when his parents bought him a set of painting tools for his 8th birthday. Once he had his own materials, he began spending much of his free time putting color on his canvas. As Arsh’s paintings began to grow in number, he decided to give them as gifts to friends and family. Receiving a positive response from people around him, he soon realized his pieces had the potential to get much more than smiles and praise. His light-bulb moment came shortly after: he would sell his artwork and donate the money to charity. His first plan was to raise $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which he accomplished in around nine months by selling his paintings on social media and at local art shows. Since then, he’s broadened his reach to benefit other organizations, including childhood cancer nonprofit Compass to Care and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He’s raised over $16,000 for charities so far. Arsh’s artwork is often colorful and cheery, as one might expect from a youngster, but it showcases the impressive technique of a gifted artist. Some pieces are more abstract in nature; others feature realistic renditions (演绎) of flowers and animals. They range in size and complexity, and, accordingly, price. Small paintings might sell for $10 while larger canvases, up to five feet, have gone for $800. Last year, Arsh won The Diana Award, an honor presented by a UK charity founded on Princess Diana’s belief that young people have the power to change their country. And the young artist has advice for other kids looking to make a difference. “Helping others doesn’t have to be, like, money or anything. It can be your time, your skills, your talent,” he says, “and overall, just be kind to other people to make their day better.” 31．What made Arsh interested in painting? A．A birthday present from his parents. B．His parents’ deep love for painting. C．The encouragement of others around him. D．His fascination with the beauty of nature. 32．Why did Arsh decide to sell his artwork? A．To pay for his painting materials. B．To get more attention from others. C．To attract children’s interest in art. D．To help those people who are in need. 33．What can we learn about Arsh from the text? A．His fundraising plan is going well. B．He will turn his attention to his studies. C．All his paintings sell at high prices now. D．He is going to teach other children to paint for free. 34．What does Arsh want to say in the last paragraph? A．Every child has a unique talent. B．Everyone has the ability to help others. C．Talent plays an important role in learning art. D．Helping others is the responsibility of young artists. 【答案】31．A 32．D 33．A 34．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Arsh喜欢画画，把自己的作品卖掉捐给慈善机构，并获得了英国慈善机构颁发的荣誉。 31．细节理解题。根据第二段中“It all started when his parents bought him a set of painting tools for his 8th birthday. Once he had his own materials, he began spending much of his free time putting color on his canvas. (这一切都始于他的父母在他8岁生日时给他买了一套绘画工具。一旦他有了自己的材料，他就开始花大量的空闲时间在画布上上色)”可知，父母送给Arsh的一个生日礼物使他对画画感兴趣。故选A。 32．细节理解题。根据第三段中“His light-bulb moment came shortly after: he would sell his artwork and donate the money to charity. (不久之后，他的灵光一现：他将卖掉自己的艺术品，把钱捐给慈善机构)”可知，Arsh决定卖掉自己的画作是为了帮助有需要的人。故选D。 33．推理判断题。根据第三段中“His first plan was to raise $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which he accomplished in around nine months by selling his paintings on social media and at local art shows. Since then, he’s broadened his reach to benefit other organizations, including childhood cancer nonprofit Compass to Care and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He’s raised over $16,000 for charities so far. (他的第一个计划是为St. Jude儿童研究医院筹集1000美元，他通过在社交媒体和当地艺术展上出售自己的画作，在大约9个月的时间里完成了这个目标。从那以后，他扩大了自己的影响范围，帮助其他组织，包括儿童癌症非营利组Compass to Car和the Make-A-Wish 基金会。到目前为止，他已经为慈善机构筹集了超过16000美元)”可推知，Arsh的筹资计划进展顺利。故选A。 34．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘Helping others doesn’t have to be, like, money or anything. It can be your time, your skills, your talent,’ he says, ‘and overall, just be kind to other people to make their day better.’ (‘帮助别人不一定是金钱或其他东西。它可以是你的时间，你的技能，你的才能，’他说，‘总的来说，只是善待别人，让他们的一天更美好。’)”可知，Arsh说帮助别人可以是任何东西，只是善待别人，就可以让他人的一天更美好。由此推知，他的意思是每个人都有帮助别人的能力。故选B。 （十一） （23-24高二下·内蒙古自治区兴安盟·期中）Chinese food is well-known for its rich sorts and distinct flavors from different areas.

Because of his fame, people from nearby towns who heard of his arrival all came to visit and seek his advice. Many who came sought help with difficulties in daily life, and Thomas, unable to bear turning them away, patiently offered suggestions. Word spread quickly, and more and more people came to see Thomas for guidance. One day, dozens of people crowded outside Thomas’s door, all clamoring (大声地要求) that their problems were the most serious and urgent, each insisting that Thomas address their concerns first, with no one willing to yield (让步). After a moment of thought, Thomas took out some paper and a pen and said, “I can’t hear clearly with everyone talking at once. How about everyone write down your problem on a piece of paper and place it in this basket beside me?” Once everyone had placed their notes in the basket, Thomas shook the basket and said, “Please each take a piece of paper from the basket and read what it says.” As everyone read a note from someone else, they all realized that indeed, each person has their own troubles, and every household has its own challenges. Then Thomas spoke up, “Now, whose problem is the most urgent to solve?” Hearing that question, no one spoke again, because now no one dared to claim that their problem was the most severe. Often, we are bound by our immediate feelings. When difficulties and problems strike, it feels as though we are caught in a vortex of pain. But if we shift our focus from ourselves and look towards others, we might discover that the problems we face are not so significant. Perhaps others are the ones who need help more urgently, or maybe there is something within our power that we can do for them. 38．Why did people visit Thomas? A．For advice. B．For a meeting. C．For a competition. D．For introductions. 39．How did Thomas handle the crowd? A．He ignored them. B．He listened to each one individually. C．He prioritized the problems himself.

D．Self-confidence. 【答案】38．A 39．D 40．B 41．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是托马斯通过智慧和同情心来帮助人们认识到每个人都有自己的问题，并鼓励他们通过同情和理解他人来减轻自己的痛苦。 38．细节理解题。根据第一段“Because of his fame, people from nearby towns who heard of his arrival all came to visit and seek his advice.(由于他的名声，附近城镇的人听说他来了，都来拜访他，征求他的意见。)”可知，人们拜访托马斯是为了寻求建议。故选A。 39．细节理解题。根据第四段“How about everyone write down your problem on a piece of paper and place it in this basket beside me?(大家把你们的问题写在一张纸上，放在我身边的篮子里，怎么样？)”可知，托马斯通过让他们写下他们的问题来应付他们。故选D。 40．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“As everyone read a note from someone else, they all realized that indeed, each person has their own troubles, and every household has its own challenges.(当每个人读到别人的纸条时，他们都意识到，确实，每个人都有自己的烦恼，每个家庭都有自己的挑战。)”可知，阅读别人的问题让他们意识到他们的处境相似。故选B。 41．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Perhaps others are the ones who need help more urgently, or maybe there is something within our power that we can do for them.(也许其他人更迫切需要帮助，或者我们可以为他们做一些力所能及的事情。)”可知，托马斯通过让大家写下自己的问题并阅读别人的问题让大家知道，要对其他人抱有同情心。故选B。 （十三） （22-23高二下·内蒙古阿拉善盟第一中学·期中） San Francisco Fire Engine ToursSan Francisco Winery Tour Running: February 1st through April 30th This delicious tour goes through the city on its way to Treasure Island where we will stop at the famous Winery SF.

Haley set up a station at a table with the dress and some colored markers so that her students could draw on it, having first seen the idea on Pinterest. After the kids had finished the design, she then surprised them all by wearing the dress to class, sharing pictures of herself in it on Facebook in a post that has since been shared over 200, 000 times. For teachers looking to do something similar for their own students, Haley said that she bought the dress off Amazon for less than $ 20 about six months ago and pre-washed the dress before she started the project. She used markers from Walmart. But she said these things can be bought in other places. She said, “To do the project, I set up a station at a table with the dress and markers. It takes anywhere from two weeks to a month to complete as we just work on it here and there when time allows. You'd better give the students enough time so they don't have to hurry.” “Teachers have been sharing their dresses, T-shirts, etc. with me that they've been creating since the 1950s with the same idea. It is amazing, and I love the fact that you are sharing them with me! Thank you all so much for your kindness and support,” she wrote on Facebook. Asked why she came up with the idea, Haley told Scary Mommy. “We don't have art in our school, so, I always try to do little creative projects when possible.” 45．What did Haley use the plain white dress to do? A．To teach her students painting. B．To prepare for her presentation. C．To ask her students to draw on it. D．To help her students with their homework. 46．What do we know about the finished dress? A．It took Haley by surprise. B．It is kept by Haley at home. C．It is the product of a new idea. D．It has enjoyed popularity online. 47．What should a teacher do if he or she wants to follow Haley's example? A．Buy the same dress online. B．Give the kids enough time. C．Buy the same markers in Walmart. D．Leave the finished work untouched. 48．Why did Haley carry out the project? A．To teach art to her students. B．To show her idea on Pinterest. C．To share it with other teachers. D．To excite her students' creativity. 【答案】45．C 46．D 47．B 48．D 【分析】本文是记叙文。讲述了一名叫Haley的老师为学生提供一件白裙子，让他们在裙子上作画，以激发学生的创造力的故事。 45．细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“…and last year she bought a plain(朴素的) white dress, which she set up a station in her classroom for her students to decorate…”可知她买这件朴素白裙，是因为她在班上建立了一个站点让班上的同学能够装饰这件裙子。也就是在洁白的裙子上画自己喜欢的图案等。故选C。 46．判断推理题。根据第二段“After the kids had finished the design, she then surprised them all by wearing the dress to class, sharing pictures of herself in it on Facebook in a post that has since been shared over 200, 000 times.”可知在孩子们完成设计之后，老师的举动让同学们大吃一惊。她穿上它在教室展示，并且拍照上传到脸谱网上，并且被分享超过20万次。故可推测这件裙子在网络上很受欢迎。故选D。 47．细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“It takes anywhere from two weeks to a month to complete as we just work on it here and there when time allows. You'd better give the students enough time so they don't have to hurry.”可知这位老师告诉其他想要效仿的老师因为只要时间允许就会在裙子各个地方作画，所以至少需要2周到一个月的时间才能完成。由此可知，要给学生充裕的时间，以便他们不要赶工。故选B。 48．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后一句话“We don't have art in our school, so, I always try to do little creative projects when possible.”她之所以这么做的原因是她们学校没有开设艺术课，她总是努力让学生尽可能做一些创造性的项目。由此可知，她的目的是激发学生的创造性。故选D。 （十五） （23-24高二下·内蒙古科尔沁右翼前旗第二中学·期中）Need a Job This Summer?

The reflection in the mirror was fit and strong, with a narrow waist. This month I’ll be celebrating my 74th birthday, but I feel more like I’m about to turn 40. In fact, I’m in the best shape of my life. And I’m here to tell you that it’s never too late to make changes. If I can do it in my early 70s, then you can do it too. I haven’t always felt so body confident. As a busy working mum I had the same hang-ups as so many other women. In my forties I fell into the trap of trying to do it all. I raised my daughter Laura, now 43, while working as a NHS clinical leader, which left me feeling stressed and exhausted. By 50 I’d reached breaking point. I ended up breaking down in the doctor’s surgery. And I was signed off work with stress-related depression. I began to do a lot of soul searching. My burnout had set me on a completely different path. Around this time, my approach to my health was also shifting. So many women hit 50 thinking that’s it and they’re done, but for me it felt like a new beginning. I enrolled in a gym and learned how to use the equipments. Over the next few years, I went to the gym roughly twice a week. Sometimes I didn’t want to go—but at the end of every session I always felt better. I wrote and self-published a book called Journey to Chocolate about my seeking for a more balanced and satisfying life. I started eating “clean” with lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, avoiding processed food and not drinking alcohol from Monday to Thursday. The changes to my diet made me feel more energetic and alert. I slept better, and managing my weight was much easier. 52．Why does the author write this article? A．To inspire. B．To inform. C．To discuss. D．To show off. 53．What does the author think of her life as a working mum? A．Annoying. B．Tiring. C．Rewarding. D．Amazing. 54．What is the book Journey to Chocolate mainly about?

But luckily for me, Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18 and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of July. The ticket was a bargain $150. My best friends Trevor, Joel and Jeremy and I immediately jumped at the opportunity and secured four tickets on the great Canadian railroad. For a group of 20-year-olds, this was like the first flight of young birds from the nest. When we approached the train station in the morning, our 22-day adventure from Sudbury to Vancouver was to begin. Eyes baggy from lack of sleep, we jumped on board as if it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter. Although the thought of three full days on those tracks covering close to 3, 000 kilometres crushed our spirits a little, what happened next caught us by surprise. The three days on board turned into a summer camp on rails. At night, we would climb up the glass-domed train car, which gave us a scenic view of the starry night sky, untouched by the harmful light pollution. Before we knew it, the warm sun rays beating down on our faces woke us up for another day on the rails. To my surprise, a sea of golden grain fields dominated the landscape we were in the Canadian Prairies. Another day slipped away and we set up for another night in the dome. And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantastic thunderstorm. Lightning was striking at an incredible rate. The spectacular and memorable light show left everyone in the glass bubble in complete disbelief. Arriving in the Rocky Mountains was one of the most surreal experiences of my life. Before the train adventure, if I could have skipped the travel and arrived at the destination, I would have. That is no longer true. I’ve learned that the journey can be more enjoyable than the destination. 59．What has made the author’s train adventure across Canada a reality? A．The encouragement given by his mother. B．The appeal of the scenic views in the country. C．The discount ticket offered by Via Rail Canada. D．His great courage to challenge a tough mission. 60．What can we infer about the young people from Paragraph 2 ? A．They were excited about the coming train journey. B．They left their parents for the first time in their life. C．They never thought of having a train adventure. D．They were hooked by the magic story of Harry Potter. 61．What does“the glass bubble”in the fourth paragraph refer to? A．A brain in lack of imagination. B．The glass-domed train car. C．A summer camp on the train. D．The sightseeing bus. 62．What did the author learn from the train adventure across Canada? A．Opportunities are hard to get. B．Enjoying a journey counts a lot. C．Splendid scenery attracts young people. D．The traveling experience is not real to him. 【答案】59．C 60．A 61．B 62．B 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了作者和朋友乘坐火车穿越加拿大的经历，描述了他们在路途中的所见所闻和感受。 59．细节理解题。根据第一段中However, it seems like a tough mission to travel all across its expansive surfaces. But luckily for me, Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18 and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of July. The ticket was a bargain $150.可知然而，穿越它广阔的表面似乎是一项艰巨的任务。但对我来说幸运的是，Via Rail Canada为18至25岁的年轻人提供了在7月份乘坐火车穿越加拿大的机会。票价便宜到150美元。由此可知，是加拿大Via铁路公司提供的折扣票让作者穿越加拿大的火车冒险变成了现实。故选C。 60．推理判断题。根据第二段中For a group of 20-year-olds, this was like the first flight of young birds from the nest. When we approached the train station in the morning, our 22-day adventure from Sudbury to Vancouver was to begin. Eyes baggy from lack of sleep, we jumped on board as if it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter.可知对于一群20多岁的年轻人来说，这就像是雏鸟第一次从巢里飞出来。当我们早上到达火车站时，我们从Sudbury到Vancouver的22天冒险就要开始了。由于睡眠不足，我们的眼睛都肿了起来，我们跳上了火车，就好像是《哈利波特》里开往霍格沃茨的火车。由此可推知，年轻人对即将到来的火车旅行很兴奋。故选A。 61．词义猜测题。根据第三段中At night, we would climb up the glass-domed train car, which gave us a scenic view of the starry night sky, untouched by the harmful light pollution.可知晚上，我们会爬上玻璃圆顶车厢，在那里我们可以看到满天星斗的夜空，没有受到有害的光污染。以及划线短语上文And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantastic thunderstorm. Lightning was striking at an incredible rate. The spectacular and memorable light show left everyone可知这次迎接我们的是描绘着梦幻般的雷雨的夜空。闪电以令人难以置信的速度袭来。壮观而难忘的光影秀让“the glass bubble”里的每个人都难以置信。由此可知，“the glass bubble”指的是玻璃穹顶的火车车厢。故选B。 62．推理判断题。根据最后一段中I’ve learned that the journey can be more enjoyable than the destination.可知我明白了旅途比目的地更令人愉快。由此可推知，作者从穿越加拿大的火车冒险中学到了享受一段旅程很重要。故选B。 （十九） （23-24高二下·内蒙古开鲁县第一中学、和林格尔县第三中学等·期中）Pre-book Rome’s top local attractions with one easy solution for skip-the-line tours in Rome.

For Bridgette Ponson, one of those moments took place in the parking lot at her workplace, Layton Christian Academy. While she was in the parking lot, her 2-year-old boy and 3-year-old girl in tow, a car hit them. This left the mother and her kids trapped beneath the car. Thankfully, the woman driver wasn’t driving very fast. At that moment, she was blinded by the sun. However, she got out of the car to help as soon as possible. Plus, she wasn’t the only one who stopped what they were doing to save Bridgette and her kids. Soon, Chris Crowder, CEO of the school, became aware of the accident. Without delay, he united a group of students to help. “It was split second,” Chris recalled. “I immediately just ran into the building because I knew I had to get a lot of people to lift this car. The students just heard me shout. All students from different countries just ran out and lifted it up.” Still, this wasn’t an easy task. The car was heavy. But the whole group of students worked together to lift the car enough for Bridgette and her kids to get free. Finally, one kid was flown to Primary Children’s Hospital while Bridgette and the other kid were taken by ambulance to the hospital. Although Bridgette took the brunt of the injuries, all three of them were expected to make complete recoveries within a few days. The heroic students who helped out certainly got their well-deserved praise. “I’m very proud of our kids. They ran out without hesitation, and they just knew what to do without even being told what to do. I’m even surprised by the driver who was behind the wheel.

It was a lovely event hosted by our sons for us. Many wonderful friends from the past surprised us with presents and congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana, and continued to Yellowstone National Park. It was a cold spring day, and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Alongside the road, there was still a great amount of snow remaining. The seenery was so impressive that we made numerous stops to record memories with my camera. At roughly the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the center of my camera lens. There were not many vehicles on the road. Occasionally, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, in rags, parked behind our car. As he approached us, his only words were, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife." I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could express our gratitude. The photo he took is one of the most cherished and prized of our trip. I learned my lesson somewhere I least expected it. God judges us just by our heart, so we should never judge a man by his appearance. If the motorcycle driver reads this story and remembers the situation, we would like to say "thank you" to him. 4．According to the passage, the trip was ______ . A．a gift for their wedding anniversary B．a suggestion from their friends C．in late autumn six year ago D．taken by train to the west 5．Which of the following can conclude the passage?

This event brings out so much enthusiasm in the community,” said organizer Karen Noble. “We’ll also go and surprise anyone we know who’s going to be lonely at Christmas.” Pallion has been at the heart of the community here since 1993, but the past couple of years have seen people increasingly struggling financially and feeling lonely. “This time last year, people were in great poverty,” said Karen. “But if we’ve done our job properly, they’ve become more financially resilient (可迅速恢复的) or less lonely and we should be helping different people this year. And a lot of those who were helped last year are volunteering for us now. People are so kind — we get loads of homemade thank-you cards. But I think the biggest thanks we get is knowing we’ve helped somebody to the point where they’re independent and getting on with life.” Karen and the team organize a wide range of activities, from after-school clubs and cookery sessions to line dancing and computer classes to keep older people connected. But all this wouldn’t be possible without funding from People’s Health Trust, with money raised through The Health Lottery (彩票). Every time you play The Health Lottery, not only could you win up to £100,000, but you’re also helping to raise much-needed funds that go straight to the heart of the community. “So playing The Health Lottery is not just the chance to win a prize. You could be making a real difference,” said Karen. 11．What can we know about Pallion Action Group from the first two paragraphs? A．It needs much support. B．Its main task is holding festivals. C．It cares for the community. D．It offers a chance to visit Santa. 12．What does Karen think of their job? A．It is of no use. B．It has paid off. C．It needs improving. D．It is not satisfactory. 13．How does Pallion Action Group get the fund? A．By funding from an organization. B．By raising money themselves. C．By receiving donations from different people. D．By receiving money from the government. 14．Which words can best describe Karen? A．Sensitive and skeptical. B．Ambitious and energetic. C．Talented and intelligent.

And I was looking at my watch very often.   As the sun began to set, Henry had two visitors, Tom and Joe. They were two miners and were Henry's friends. They carried guitars and brought flowers and a bottle of whiskey. They put the flowers in vases and began to play some fast and lively songs. That night, they kept giving Henry glasses of whiskey, which they made him drink. When I reached for one of the two glasses left on the table, Tom stopped my arm. "Drop that glass and take the other one!" he whispered. He gave the remaining glass of whiskey to Henry just as the clock began to strike midnight. Henry emptied the glass. His face grew whiter and whiter. "Boys," he said, "I am feeling sick. I want to lie down." Henry was asleep almost before the words were out of his mouth. In a moment, his two friends had picked him up and carried him into the bedroom. They fastened the door and came back. They seemed to be getting ready to leave. So I said, "Please don't go gentlemen. She is coming back and will not know me. I am a stranger to her." They looked at each other. "Henry's wife has been dead for nineteen years," Tom said. "Dead?" I whispered. "Dead or worse," he said. "She went to see her parents about six months after she got married. On her way back, on a Saturday evening in June, when she was almost here, the Indians captured her. No one ever saw her again. Henry lost his mind. He thinks she is still alive. When June comes, he thinks she has gone on her trip to see her parents. Then he begins to wait for her to come back." "On the Saturday night she is supposed to come home, we come here to be with him. We put a sleeping drug in his drink so he will sleep through the night. Then he is all right for another year." Joe picked up his hat and his guitar. "We have done this every June for nineteen years," he said. He opened the door of the pretty little house and then they disappeared into the darkness. 24．What do you think Henry told the author previously? A．They would enjoy whiskey together.

The talented boy not only paints but also sells his artwork and donates the money. It all started when his parents bought him a set of painting tools for his 8th birthday. Once he had his own materials, he began spending much of his free time putting color on his canvas. As Arsh’s paintings began to grow in number, he decided to give them as gifts to friends and family. Receiving a positive response from people around him, he soon realized his pieces had the potential to get much more than smiles and praise. His light-bulb moment came shortly after: he would sell his artwork and donate the money to charity. His first plan was to raise $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which he accomplished in around nine months by selling his paintings on social media and at local art shows. Since then, he’s broadened his reach to benefit other organizations, including childhood cancer nonprofit Compass to Care and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He’s raised over $16,000 for charities so far. Arsh’s artwork is often colorful and cheery, as one might expect from a youngster, but it showcases the impressive technique of a gifted artist. Some pieces are more abstract in nature; others feature realistic renditions (演绎) of flowers and animals. They range in size and complexity, and, accordingly, price. Small paintings might sell for $10 while larger canvases, up to five feet, have gone for $800. Last year, Arsh won The Diana Award, an honor presented by a UK charity founded on Princess Diana’s belief that young people have the power to change their country. And the young artist has advice for other kids looking to make a difference. “Helping others doesn’t have to be, like, money or anything. It can be your time, your skills, your talent,” he says, “and overall, just be kind to other people to make their day better.” 31．What made Arsh interested in painting? A．A birthday present from his parents. B．His parents’ deep love for painting. C．The encouragement of others around him. D．His fascination with the beauty of nature. 32．Why did Arsh decide to sell his artwork? A．To pay for his painting materials. B．To get more attention from others. C．To attract children’s interest in art. D．To help those people who are in need. 33．What can we learn about Arsh from the text? A．His fundraising plan is going well. B．He will turn his attention to his studies. C．All his paintings sell at high prices now. D．He is going to teach other children to paint for free. 34．What does Arsh want to say in the last paragraph? A．Every child has a unique talent. B．Everyone has the ability to help others. C．Talent plays an important role in learning art. D．Helping others is the responsibility of young artists. （十一） （23-24高二下·内蒙古自治区兴安盟·期中）Chinese food is well-known for its rich sorts and distinct flavors from different areas. This article highlights four classic dishes that represent the wide range of Chinese cooking. Dongpo pork Dongpo pork is a delicious dish from Zhejiang Province, China. It’s made by cooking streaky pork (五花肉) slowly with ingredients like soy sauce, ginger, and sugar. This makes the meat very soft and full of flavor. The tasty sauce is great for mixing with rice. The dish is named after a famous poet, Su Dongpo. Hot candied milk tofu Hot candied milk tofu is a sweet specialty from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is crisp (酥脆的) on the outside and soft on the inside. It tastes sweet and is suitable for people of all ages to eat. It’s also great for getting more calcium. Steamed Chinese cabbage in supreme soup Steamed Chinese cabbage in supreme soup is a famous Sichuan cuisine. It is made with the hearts of Chinese cabbage from the north. It’s cooked with chicken, duck, and pork bones to make a clear flavourful soup, which is seasoned with minced chicken or pork. Some chicken oil is drizzled on top. The Chinese cabbage, cooked in the soup, keeps its crisp freshness and soaks up (吸收) the soup, offering a tasty experience. Steamed fish head with chopped hot chilli peppers In Hunan Province, the love for spicy food is obvious in a famous traditional dish, steamed fish head with chopped hot chilli peppers. The fish head is marinated (腌) with a generous amount of red chilli peppers and then steamed to perfection.

Because of his fame, people from nearby towns who heard of his arrival all came to visit and seek his advice. Many who came sought help with difficulties in daily life, and Thomas, unable to bear turning them away, patiently offered suggestions. Word spread quickly, and more and more people came to see Thomas for guidance. One day, dozens of people crowded outside Thomas’s door, all clamoring (大声地要求) that their problems were the most serious and urgent, each insisting that Thomas address their concerns first, with no one willing to yield (让步). After a moment of thought, Thomas took out some paper and a pen and said, “I can’t hear clearly with everyone talking at once. How about everyone write down your problem on a piece of paper and place it in this basket beside me?” Once everyone had placed their notes in the basket, Thomas shook the basket and said, “Please each take a piece of paper from the basket and read what it says.” As everyone read a note from someone else, they all realized that indeed, each person has their own troubles, and every household has its own challenges. Then Thomas spoke up, “Now, whose problem is the most urgent to solve?” Hearing that question, no one spoke again, because now no one dared to claim that their problem was the most severe. Often, we are bound by our immediate feelings. When difficulties and problems strike, it feels as though we are caught in a vortex of pain. But if we shift our focus from ourselves and look towards others, we might discover that the problems we face are not so significant. Perhaps others are the ones who need help more urgently, or maybe there is something within our power that we can do for them. 38．Why did people visit Thomas? A．For advice. B．For a meeting. C．For a competition. D．For introductions. 39．How did Thomas handle the crowd? A．He ignored them. B．He listened to each one individually. C．He prioritized the problems himself. D．He asked them to write down their problems. 40．What did reading others’ problems show to the people? A．The complexity of their difficulties. B．The similarity of their situations. C．Their need for more advice. D．Their living conditions. 41．What lesson did Thomas teach? A．Competition. B．Sympathy. C．Prioritization. D．Self-confidence. （十三） （22-23高二下·内蒙古阿拉善盟第一中学·期中） San Francisco Fire Engine ToursSan Francisco Winery Tour Running: February 1st through April 30th This delicious tour goes through the city on its way to Treasure Island where we will stop at the famous Winery SF.

Haley set up a station at a table with the dress and some colored markers so that her students could draw on it, having first seen the idea on Pinterest. After the kids had finished the design, she then surprised them all by wearing the dress to class, sharing pictures of herself in it on Facebook in a post that has since been shared over 200, 000 times. For teachers looking to do something similar for their own students, Haley said that she bought the dress off Amazon for less than $ 20 about six months ago and pre-washed the dress before she started the project. She used markers from Walmart. But she said these things can be bought in other places. She said, “To do the project, I set up a station at a table with the dress and markers. It takes anywhere from two weeks to a month to complete as we just work on it here and there when time allows. You'd better give the students enough time so they don't have to hurry.” “Teachers have been sharing their dresses, T-shirts, etc. with me that they've been creating since the 1950s with the same idea. It is amazing, and I love the fact that you are sharing them with me! Thank you all so much for your kindness and support,” she wrote on Facebook. Asked why she came up with the idea, Haley told Scary Mommy. “We don't have art in our school, so, I always try to do little creative projects when possible.” 45．What did Haley use the plain white dress to do? A．To teach her students painting. B．To prepare for her presentation. C．To ask her students to draw on it. D．To help her students with their homework. 46．What do we know about the finished dress?

The reflection in the mirror was fit and strong, with a narrow waist. This month I’ll be celebrating my 74th birthday, but I feel more like I’m about to turn 40. In fact, I’m in the best shape of my life. And I’m here to tell you that it’s never too late to make changes. If I can do it in my early 70s, then you can do it too. I haven’t always felt so body confident. As a busy working mum I had the same hang-ups as so many other women. In my forties I fell into the trap of trying to do it all. I raised my daughter Laura, now 43, while working as a NHS clinical leader, which left me feeling stressed and exhausted. By 50 I’d reached breaking point. I ended up breaking down in the doctor’s surgery. And I was signed off work with stress-related depression. I began to do a lot of soul searching. My burnout had set me on a completely different path. Around this time, my approach to my health was also shifting. So many women hit 50 thinking that’s it and they’re done, but for me it felt like a new beginning. I enrolled in a gym and learned how to use the equipments. Over the next few years, I went to the gym roughly twice a week. Sometimes I didn’t want to go—but at the end of every session I always felt better. I wrote and self-published a book called Journey to Chocolate about my seeking for a more balanced and satisfying life. I started eating “clean” with lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, avoiding processed food and not drinking alcohol from Monday to Thursday. The changes to my diet made me feel more energetic and alert. I slept better, and managing my weight was much easier. 52．Why does the author write this article? A．To inspire. B．To inform. C．To discuss. D．To show off. 53．What does the author think of her life as a working mum? A．Annoying. B．Tiring. C．Rewarding. D．Amazing. 54．What is the book Journey to Chocolate mainly about? A．The meaning of life. B．The way to keep clean. C．The author’s pursuit. D．The benefits of chocolate. 55．What can be the best title of this text?

But luckily for me, Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18 and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of July. The ticket was a bargain $150. My best friends Trevor, Joel and Jeremy and I immediately jumped at the opportunity and secured four tickets on the great Canadian railroad. For a group of 20-year-olds, this was like the first flight of young birds from the nest. When we approached the train station in the morning, our 22-day adventure from Sudbury to Vancouver was to begin. Eyes baggy from lack of sleep, we jumped on board as if it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter. Although the thought of three full days on those tracks covering close to 3, 000 kilometres crushed our spirits a little, what happened next caught us by surprise. The three days on board turned into a summer camp on rails. At night, we would climb up the glass-domed train car, which gave us a scenic view of the starry night sky, untouched by the harmful light pollution. Before we knew it, the warm sun rays beating down on our faces woke us up for another day on the rails. To my surprise, a sea of golden grain fields dominated the landscape we were in the Canadian Prairies. Another day slipped away and we set up for another night in the dome. And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantastic thunderstorm. Lightning was striking at an incredible rate. The spectacular and memorable light show left everyone in the glass bubble in complete disbelief. Arriving in the Rocky Mountains was one of the most surreal experiences of my life. Before the train adventure, if I could have skipped the travel and arrived at the destination, I would have. That is no longer true. I’ve learned that the journey can be more enjoyable than the destination. 59．What has made the author’s train adventure across Canada a reality? A．The encouragement given by his mother. B．The appeal of the scenic views in the country. C．The discount ticket offered by Via Rail Canada. D．His great courage to challenge a tough mission. 60．What can we infer about the young people from Paragraph 2 ? A．They were excited about the coming train journey. B．They left their parents for the first time in their life. C．They never thought of having a train adventure. D．They were hooked by the magic story of Harry Potter. 61．What does“the glass bubble”in the fourth paragraph refer to? A．A brain in lack of imagination. B．The glass-domed train car. C．A summer camp on the train. D．The sightseeing bus. 62．What did the author learn from the train adventure across Canada? A．Opportunities are hard to get. B．Enjoying a journey counts a lot. C．Splendid scenery attracts young people.

For Bridgette Ponson, one of those moments took place in the parking lot at her workplace, Layton Christian Academy. While she was in the parking lot, her 2-year-old boy and 3-year-old girl in tow, a car hit them. This left the mother and her kids trapped beneath the car. Thankfully, the woman driver wasn’t driving very fast. At that moment, she was blinded by the sun. However, she got out of the car to help as soon as possible. Plus, she wasn’t the only one who stopped what they were doing to save Bridgette and her kids. Soon, Chris Crowder, CEO of the school, became aware of the accident. Without delay, he united a group of students to help. “It was split second,” Chris recalled. “I immediately just ran into the building because I knew I had to get a lot of people to lift this car. The students just heard me shout. All students from different countries just ran out and lifted it up.” Still, this wasn’t an easy task. The car was heavy. But the whole group of students worked together to lift the car enough for Bridgette and her kids to get free. Finally, one kid was flown to Primary Children’s Hospital while Bridgette and the other kid were taken by ambulance to the hospital. Although Bridgette took the brunt of the injuries, all three of them were expected to make complete recoveries within a few days. The heroic students who helped out certainly got their well-deserved praise. “I’m very proud of our kids. They ran out without hesitation, and they just knew what to do without even being told what to do. I’m even surprised by the driver who was behind the wheel. She immediately ran to help,” said Chris. 66．Which of the following caused the accident in the parking lot? A．The car was speeding. B．The driver was trapped in the car.
