When my children have some problems, they call me to tell their trouble. And I always say, “You should...”, “You must...” or “You needn’t...” Then I just get an impatient (不耐烦的) answer. Also, it seems that I always give my children advice they don’t want. For example, when I get a phone call from one of my children, I seem to be an expert on everything, but clearly I’m not. I try my best to reason with (讲理) my children simply because I want to stop them from making mistakes. But they hardly take my words to heart. I’m not alone in this. Once, a friend told me that her son didn’t always obey her. I know that feeling too. Then I learn that children talk to us not to look for any advice. They just want someone to listen to them, and give love and support them. We think that we are sharing our useful advice, but the children themselves don’t think so. In their opinions, they are adults with their own thoughts now. Because of this, I decide to become a better parent by being a better listener. It’s not an easy thing for parents like me. But I’m trying to do it anyway. 21. Who wrote this passage? A. A child. B. A parent. C. A teacher. D. A doctor. 22. What’s wrong with the writer’s talk with her children? A.

Is there a person in your neighborhood who could offer help? If you’re hoping for someone to make a difference, that someone could be you! Volunteering your time is a great way to make a difference in your community. You can do something to help people or improve the places around you. This past summer, my friends and I noticed how messy our neighborhood park was. We wanted it to be different. We worked without parents and teachers to clean up the park. We had a great time making the park even better than before, and now the whole neighborhood is able to share and enjoy it again. Volunteering can not only do good in the community, it can also make you happier. Studies show that people who volunteer hardly develop depression (抑郁). Find chances to do volunteer work that interests you. For example, if you love animals, you can volunteer at an animal shelter. If you love helping the environment, you can plant trees or pick up rubbish. You can also help at an old people’s home, simply by talking or playing games with them to make their days better. When you do these interesting work, it will bring you a lot of happiness and make you enjoy the volunteer experience. When the little things you do can change a person’s life, you will feel better about yourself. You see, whatever you do as a volunteer, you make a difference in your community. And our time will be enjoyed and that always feels good. Kids everywhere are making a difference by volunteering. You can, too! 26. What did the writer do to make a difference in the community? A. B. C. D. 27. The main idea of Paragraph 5 is that ________. A. helping the old has a lot of fun B. volunteering can change others C. there is so much volunteer work D. volunteering can make yourself happier 28. Which is the right structure of the passage?(①= Paragraph 1 ②= Paragraph 2, ...) A. B. C. D. 29. We can infer (推断) that the writer is full of ________ when writing this passage. A. thanks B. surprise C. hope D. worries 30. What’s the writer’s purpose (目的) of this passage? A. To ask kids to work as volunteers. B. To introduce the volunteering project. C. To share the experience of volunteering. D. To tell the reasons of being volunteers. 【答案】26. A 27. D 28. B 29. C 30. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲了志愿经历和益处，呼吁孩子们参与志愿活动。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“This past summer, my friends and I noticed how messy our neighborhood park was. We wanted it to be different. We worked without parents and teachers to clean up the park.”可知，作者和朋友们在没有家长和老师的帮助下清理了社区公园。图A展示的是人们在清理垃圾，符合文意，故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Volunteering can not only do good in the community, it can also make you happier. ”以及后文具体举例说明做志愿工作能带来快乐可知，本段主要讲的是做志愿工作能让自己更快乐。故选D。 【28题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段提出问题，引出“你可以通过做志愿来改变社区”的话题；第二段总述做志愿是改变社区的好方式；第三段举例说明作者和朋友做的志愿活动；第四段说明做志愿不仅对社区有益，还能让人更快乐；第五段进一步阐述寻找自己感兴趣的志愿工作能带来快乐；第六段总结，无论做什么志愿，都能带来改变，鼓励大家做志愿。所以文章是“总—分—总”结构，①总起，②③④⑤分述，⑥总结， 结构为B选项。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“You see, whatever you do as a volunteer, you make a difference in your community. And our time will be enjoyed and that always feels good. Kids everywhere are making a difference by volunteering. You can, too!”可知，作者鼓励大家去做志愿，字里行间充满了对大家参与志愿活动的期望。所以作者写这篇文章时充满了希望，故选C。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章开头提出社区可以被改变，自己可以为此做些什么，接着讲述自己和朋友清理社区公园的经历，以及做志愿工作的好处，最后“Kids everywhere are making a difference by volunteering. You can, too!”可知，作者通过讲述志愿经历、好处等内容，目的是呼吁孩子们去做志愿者。根据文章内容可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁孩子们去做志愿者。故选A。 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Homework can be a headache (头疼的事) for not only kids and teenagers but also for their parents.

City latest news. B. A weather report. C. A car accident report. D. A traffic rule poster. B For many parents, getting on well with their children seems to be a problem. I am one of those parents. Recently, I’ve come to realize that my talk with my children is turning into something I don’t like. I don’t always think before I open my mouth. When my children have some problems, they call me to tell their trouble. And I always say, “You should...”, “You must...” or “You needn’t...” Then I just get an impatient (不耐烦的) answer. Also, it seems that I always give my children advice they don’t want. For example, when I get a phone call from one of my children, I seem to be an expert on everything, but clearly I’m not. I try my best to reason with (讲理) my children simply because I want to stop them from making mistakes. But they hardly take my words to heart. I’m not alone in this. Once, a friend told me that her son didn’t always obey her. I know that feeling too. Then I learn that children talk to us not to look for any advice. They just want someone to listen to them, and give love and support them. We think that we are sharing our useful advice, but the children themselves don’t think so. In their opinions, they are adults with their own thoughts now. Because of this, I decide to become a better parent by being a better listener. It’s not an easy thing for parents like me. But I’m trying to do it anyway. 21. Who wrote this passage? A. A child. B. A parent. C. A teacher. D. A doctor. 22. What’s wrong with the writer’s talk with her children? A. None of her children like to talk to her on the phone. B. It’s hard for the writer to believe what her children say. C. Their talk is turning into something that she doesn’t like. D. The writer always gives impatient answer to her children. 23. How does the writer explain his idea in Paragraph 3? A. By giving some pictures. B. By listing some numbers. C. By telling an interesting story. D. By sharing a personal experience. 24. What does the underlined word “obey” mean in Paragraph 4? A. Listen to. B. Care about. C. Depend on. D. Look after. 25. What is the best title for the passage? A. Share Useful Advice B. Try to Be a Better Listener C. Think Twice Before Speaking D. Take Children’s Words to Heart C Is there something in your community (社区) that could be changed? Is there a person in your neighborhood who could offer help? If you’re hoping for someone to make a difference, that someone could be you! Volunteering your time is a great way to make a difference in your community. You can do something to help people or improve the places around you. This past summer, my friends and I noticed how messy our neighborhood park was. We wanted it to be different. We worked without parents and teachers to clean up the park. We had a great time making the park even better than before, and now the whole neighborhood is able to share and enjoy it again. Volunteering can not only do good in the community, it can also make you happier. Studies show that people who volunteer hardly develop depression (抑郁). Find chances to do volunteer work that interests you. For example, if you love animals, you can volunteer at an animal shelter. If you love helping the environment, you can plant trees or pick up rubbish. You can also help at an old people’s home, simply by talking or playing games with them to make their days better. When you do these interesting work, it will bring you a lot of happiness and make you enjoy the volunteer experience. When the little things you do can change a person’s life, you will feel better about yourself. You see, whatever you do as a volunteer, you make a difference in your community. And our time will be enjoyed and that always feels good. Kids everywhere are making a difference by volunteering. You can, too! 26 What did the writer do to make a difference in the community? A. B. C. D. 27. The main idea of Paragraph 5 is that ________. A. helping the old has a lot of fun B. volunteering can change others C. there is so much volunteer work D. volunteering can make yourself happier 28. Which is the right structure of the passage?(①= Paragraph 1 ②= Paragraph 2, ...) A B. C. D. 29. We can infer (推断) that the writer is full of ________ when writing this passage. A. thanks B. surprise C. hope D. worries 30. What’s the writer’s purpose (目的) of this passage? A. To ask kids to work as volunteers. B. To introduce the volunteering project. C. To share the experience of volunteering. D. To tell the reasons of being volunteers. 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Homework can be a headache (头疼的事) for not only kids and teenagers but also for their parents.
