I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him the matter ①that had happened.“I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him,②which would make him frustrated,” he explained uncomfortably.“I gave him the choice to run or not,and let him decide.”
语境感悟
I bit back my frustration(懊恼).I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing.After making sure that David could run if he wanted,I turned to find David,③whose small body rocked from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease ④which prevented him from walking or running like other children,but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid.He always participated to the best of his ability in anything ⑤that they were doing.That was the reason ⑥why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team.It just took him longer—that’s all.David had not missed a single practice,and although he always finished his run long after the other children,he did always finish.As a special education teacher at the school ⑦who was familiar with David’s challenges,I was proud of his strong determination.

A
(2024·安徽亳州期末)
As children,our mother always taught my brother and me the value of acquiring life skills.“It sets you apart,” she would say.While my brother chose the path of mastering musical instruments,I gravitated towards the field of languages.Growing up in a multilingual household where Mandarin,Cantonese,and English mixed,I felt it natural to continue exploring new linguistic possibilities.
Languages fascinated me.I was attracted by the way words gracefully rolled off tongues and how each language seemed to unlock a door to an entirely new world,no matter how challenging they were to learn.
Eager to try beyond Asian languages,it was my mother who suggested French as a suitable starting point.The elegance and poetic charm of the language quickly attracted me.The melodic flow and the way the words effortlessly danced off my tongue caused a thrilling feeling,fuelling my desire to explore deeper into its complexity.Interestingly,despite my passion and talent for it,French proved to be the language that took the longest to fully grasp.Nevertheless,I insisted and never gave up expanding my linguistic arsenal(宝库).
After realizing that Spanish wasn’t the right fit for me,I found myself addicted to the fascinating world of German.Being enrolled in a German-speaking school speeded my progress,and two years later,my command of German surpassed(超过) my years of studying French.As time passed,I added Latin,Ancient Greek,and Japanese to my linguistic arsenal.
It fact,speaking multiple languages is not a mere accomplishment;it is a joyous celebration of the richness of human expression.For me,it serves as a powerful tool to develop connections with others on a great level,where humanity unites in a shared pursuit of compassion,harmony and mutual respect.
1.Why did the author’s mother value acquiring life skills?
A.It contributes to future success.
B.It is a tradition in their family.
C.It is part of making a living.
D.It makes an individual outstanding.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As children,our mother always taught my brother and me the value of acquiring life skills.‘It sets you apart,’ she would say.”可知,作者的母亲重视掌握生活技能是因为它使一个人脱颖而出。故选D项。
2.How did the author like a new language?
A.It widened his world.
B.It was necessary for his future.
C.It was a valuable part of his life.
D.It boosted his confidence.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中“...how each language seemed to unlock a door to an entirely new world,no matter how challenging they were to learn.”可知,作者觉得一门新语言可以拓宽他的世界。故选A项。
3.What can we know about the author’s learning French?
A.He showed little interest in it.
B.He found it challenging.
C.He considered it unsuitable.
D.He quit it halfway.
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中“French proved to be the language that took the longest to fully grasp”可知,作者花了最长的时间才完全掌握法语,即学习法语对作者来说是有挑战性的。故选B项。
4.Which of the following words can best describe the author?
A.Organized. B.Reliable.
C.Creative. D.Determined.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第三、四段可知,虽然学习法语很难,但作者并未放弃,而且一直在学习其他新的语言。由此可知,作者是一个意志坚定的人。故选D项。
B
Rosie,a first-year university student in Beijing,entered a classroom for her oral English exam and handed her topic across the table to Joe,a foreign teacher.“In middle school,my classmates laughed at me for having deaf-mute(聋哑) parents,” she began softly.“From that moment on,I decided not to tell anybody.But today...”
It’s widely considered taboo(忌讳) in Chinese to discuss the details of an unhappy family life with anyone other than very close friends.However,as Joe has noticed,many Chinese students appear surprisingly comfortable discussing emotional moments from their lives when they speak with foreign teachers in a language different from their own.
“When speaking English,” one of his Chinese students told him,“I feel like another person.” When speaking Chinese,he is kind of reserved;in English class,he is more open.English,to the Chinese speaker,may be like a mask,creating a buffer(缓冲物) between speaking the truth and the listener’s reaction.Students focus on how to speak rather than what is being said.If there’s a misunderstanding,English can take the blame.
Another reason why Chinese students are more comfortable sharing their secrets during English class may be the distinct approach to teaching used by their foreign teachers.“I always try to come to each student,make eye contact,have a 20-second conversation and see how they are doing,” Joe said.Classes taught by Chinese teachers,in contrast,are more formal.Many students said they had never been asked their opinions in class.
Rosie’s English vocabulary is now extensive,but she still can’t find the words to describe her feelings towards the English language.“English makes me feel I am different,” she said.“English is beautiful.”

Ⅳ.七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
When we answer questions with silence,it is often very powerful indeed. 1 For some people,silence comes naturally.But there are quite a few of us who need to learn the art of practicing silence.Read on for more reasons to try silence in your daily communications.
Silence gets people’s attention
If you have ever been in a classroom,you have most likely experienced how silence often gets everyone’s attention.When the teacher stops talking,a signal goes to the brain that something has happened. 2 The same is true in our daily conversations.If we fall silent,people will notice it and we gain their attention.
Silence uses body language
Often our body language is a more powerful way of communicating than what comes out of our mouth. 3 The ability to understand and use body language is a powerful tool that can help you connect with others,express what you really mean,and build better relationships.
Silence offers sympathy for others
There are times in life when silence offers sympathy and understanding to others.Sometimes we simply don’t have the right words to communicate to someone who is struggling with a hurtful or painful situation.But we can still show them that we care and we are there for them. 4
Silence is polite
5 They may be radio broadcasts,news channels,stores and the constant chatter of people around us.So when we do get the chance to talk,we usually feel like we have to fill every thought into a short period of time.However,when we are silent we give others a chance to speak.We show them that they matter.
A.We can offer comfort by our calming silence.
B.The silence often leaves the other person puzzled.
C.To comfort them,you may tell them a similar painful situation.
D.Often the other person would quickly get the needed answer in silence.
E.Our facial expressions,eye contact,and even tone of voice speak the loudest.
F.We live in a society where we are fighting with so many sources of information.
G.All of a sudden,you pay attention and wonder why communication has stopped.
1.答案 D
解析 上文提到沉默是对问题的有力回答,即对方能从沉默中找到答案。故D选项“通常对方会很快在沉默中得到所需的答案”符合语境,故选D。
2.答案 G
解析 上文提到老师停止讲话会吸引学生的注意力,G选项“突然间,你集中注意力,想知道为什么交流停止了”承接上文,符合语境,故选G。
3.答案 E
解析 根据本段小标题和上文可知,本句承接上文举例说明肢体语言有哪些,故E选项“我们的面部表情,眼神交流,甚至是语调都是最响亮的声音”符合语境,故选E。
4.答案 A
解析 根据上文可知,沉默会给他人带来同情和理解,本句为本段最后一句,应承接上文。故A选项“我们可以通过平静的沉默来提供安慰”符合语境,故选A。
5.答案 F
解析 下文“They may be radio broadcasts,news channels,stores and the constant chatter of people around us.”提到了无线电广播、新闻频道、商店和我们周围人的喋喋不休,即各种信息的来源。故F选项“我们生活在一个与如此多的信息来源作斗争的社会”符合语境,且选项中的sources of information是下文中的They指代的对象,故选F。
Ⅴ.语法填空(每小题1.5分,共15分)
