I still remember the name of my kindergarten teacher. Her name was Mrs.White. I thought she must be a sister of Snow White, because she had bright blue eyes, short dark hair and white skin like her. I can’t remember what we learned in her class, but I remember that we wrote a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and there were so many mistakes in my paper, which made my mother worried. There were no red corrections (改正), but always a star. She even gave a “Good” and made me feel happy all day. One day, my mother went to meet Mrs. White for a parent-teacher meeting. She asked her why she never corrected my mistakes in my writing. “The children are just beginning to get excited about using words and making up sentences. I don’t want my students to lose interest because of red ink (墨水). Spelling and grammar can wait, but the wonder of words won’t.” Mrs. White said. When I look back now, that’s the reason why I still remember her and like her best. When I was in my high school, I always forgot how to spell “beautiful”, and could never remember that the “e” goes before the “a”. It made my teacher angry. She asked me to use “pretty” instead of “beautiful” when I was writing. I didn’t listen to her. In my eyes, the “pretty” is easier to spell, but it doesn’t hold as much as we mean sometimes. And thanks to Mrs.White, I never worried about writing what I meant even if I couldn’t spell it out. Because life isn’t “pretty”. It’s “beautiful”. 26. In Sara’s memory, Mrs.White had ________. A. bright black eyes, long dark hair and white skin B. bright blue eyes, short dark hair and white skin C. bright black eyes, short dark hair and brown skin D. bright blue eyes, long dark hair and brown skin 27. Sara’s mother felt ________ before she went to meet Mrs.White. A. woried B. surprised C. nervous D. angry 28. According to paragraph 3, what Mrs.White said means that ________.

Which of the following is TRUE? A. Sara’s teacher is a sister of Snow White. B. Sara usually got a “Bad” in her writing. C. Sara used “pretty” instead of “beautiful”. D. Sara always forgot how to spell “beautiful”. 30. What can we learn from the text? A. All the teachers should help children correct words. B. Children must use easier words to show their ideas. C. Spelling and grammar are the most important for children. D Using words is more important than just correcting spelling. 【答案】26. B 27. A 28. D 29. D 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者的幼儿园的老师怀特夫人。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“She had bright blue eyes, short dark hair and white skin like her.”可知，Mrs.White有明亮的蓝眼睛、短黑发和白皮肤，故选B。 27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“There were no red corrections, but always a star. She even gave a ‘Good’ and made me feel happy all day.”以及“My mother...asked her why she never corrected my mistakes...”可知，Sara的母亲因为看到女儿的作文中有很多错误但没有被批改，感到担心，故选A。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据Mrs.White所说的话“The children are just beginning to get excited about using words…Spelling and grammar can wait, but the wonder of words won’t.”可知，她重视孩子对用词表达的兴趣，认为语法拼写可以后补，学习单词的兴趣更重要，故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第“I always forgot how to spell ‘beautiful’”可知，Sara总是忘记如何拼写“beautiful”。故选D。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文尤其是Mrs.White的教育方法可知，文章想告诉我们，鼓励孩子使用语言表达比纠正拼写更重要。故选D。 B The world has always been one generation (时代) following the next, and each has its own ideas about how it wants to shape its own life.

A man is walking in a desert, looking for water, when up ahead, he sees a land with water. But there is no land—no water at all, not even a small pool. It was just a mirage (海市蜃楼). How does a mirage happen? The light and air play with our eyes. Normally, light travels in a straight line as a rule, but it can bend and change directions depending on what it passes through. This bending is called “refraction (折射)”. If different layers (层) of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them. This can create a false (not true) image of things around. Mirages can be seen not only over water, but anywhere that can take in a lot of heat, for example, on the hot roads. The next time you think you see a pool of water on the road on a hot summer day, you will know it’s just a mirage—an image of the sky caused by bending light. Mirage is the magic of nature. When you meet it next time, just take a photo of it and enjoy the beautiful moment. 36. In paragraph 1, the writer uses the scene to ________. A. share the experience in a desert B. describe the brave man C. show when a mirage happens D. introduce what a mirage is 37. How does light travel normally? A. B. C. D. 38.

D 37. A 38. A 39. C 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了海市蜃楼这一自然现象。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It’s a usual scene in movies and cartoons. A man is walking in a desert, looking for water, when up ahead, he sees a land with water. But there is no land—no water at all, not even a small pool. It was just a mirage.”可知，作者介绍电影中的场景是为了告诉我们什么是海市蜃楼，故选D。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Normally, light travels in a straight line as a rule…”可知，通常情况下，光线是沿直线传播的，故选A。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“If different layers (层) of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them.” 可知，这里的 “them” 指代的是前面提到的 “different layers of air”，即不同的空气层，故选A。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Mirages can be seen not only over water, but anywhere that can take in a lot of heat…”可知，海洋可以吸收大量的热量，所以在蓝色的海洋上可能会看到海市蜃楼。故选C。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了海市蜃楼这一自然现象，属于自然科学范畴，所以我们可以在“神奇的大自然”这一版块看到这篇文章，故选C。 D Since the beginning of this year, “city read” has become popular in China.

I thought she must be a sister of Snow White, because she had bright blue eyes, short dark hair and white skin like her. I can’t remember what we learned in her class, but I remember that we wrote a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and there were so many mistakes in my paper, which made my mother worried. There were no red corrections (改正), but always a star. She even gave a “Good” and made me feel happy all day. One day, my mother went to meet Mrs. White for a parent-teacher meeting. She asked her why she never corrected my mistakes in my writing. “The children are just beginning to get excited about using words and making up sentences. I don’t want my students to lose interest because of red ink (墨水). Spelling and grammar can wait, but the wonder of words won’t.” Mrs. White said. When I look back now, that’s the reason why I still remember her and like her best. When I was in my high school, I always forgot how to spell “beautiful”, and could never remember that the “e” goes before the “a”. It made my teacher angry. She asked me to use “pretty” instead of “beautiful” when I was writing. I didn’t listen to her. In my eyes, the “pretty” is easier to spell, but it doesn’t hold as much as we mean sometimes. And thanks to Mrs.White, I never worried about writing what I meant even if I couldn’t spell it out. Because life isn’t “pretty”. It’s “beautiful”. 26. In Sara’s memory, Mrs.White had ________. A. bright black eyes, long dark hair and white skin B. bright blue eyes, short dark hair and white skin C. bright black eyes, short dark hair and brown skin D. bright blue eyes, long dark hair and brown skin 27. Sara’s mother felt ________ before she went to meet Mrs.White. A. woried B. surprised C. nervous D. angry 28. According to paragraph 3, what Mrs.White said means that ________. A. children don’t have time to lean to spell words B. red ink is used to draw children’s interest C. children should learn to use words at a young age D. the interest of learning words is very important 29. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Sara’s teacher is a sister of Snow White. B. Sara usually got a “Bad” in her writing. C. Sara used “pretty” instead of “beautiful”. D. Sara always forgot how to spell “beautiful”. 30. What can we learn from the text? A. All the teachers should help children correct words. B. Children must use easier words to show their ideas. C. Spelling and grammar are the most important for children. D. Using words is more important than just correcting spelling. B The world has always been one generation (时代) following the next, and each has its own ideas about how it wants to shape its own life. What would young people like to say to their elders? Here are some answers from some young people around the world. a. “I’m thankful to my parents because they allow me to do what I want.” —Alex, 15, New Zealand “I’m thankful that my parents taught me to be kind to people from an early age. I find this to be very important as an adult. ” —Esmeralda, 23, Singapore What we really hope you are like… “Please stop telling us what we should never do—then only to turn around and do just that!” —Louise, 17, Australia “I wish my parents could have improved their cooking skills. For years I had to eat beef noodles!” —Lizzy, 25, Netherlands Where we plan to be like you… “I will give my children the same freedom to try everything they want.Success is important, but so is failure.” —Paulina, 23, Finland “I think carefully, and do well in what I’ve decided to do. It doesn’t matter if I make a mistake and take a wrong way. I’ll enjoy and learn from what I see on the way.” —Sam, 25, Thailand What we are facing… “I wish older generations could show more care for the environment—not left younger generations to fix up their mess. ” —Alex, 15, New Zealand “I wish you could spend more time with me and teach me how to communicate with others when I was young. Now I am confused about how to talk with people. ” —Jasmine, 18, Canada 31. From the text, Alex and Esmeralda show their ________ to their elders. A. skills B. thanks C. interests D. decisions 32.

What does“confused ”mean? A. 惊讶的 B. 生气的 C. 懊悔的 D. 困惑的 35. The purpose of the text is to show ________. A the voices of the young generation B. good ways to communicate C. different ideas in different countries D. problems between generations C It’s a usual scene in movies and cartoons. A man is walking in a desert, looking for water, when up ahead, he sees a land with water. But there is no land—no water at all, not even a small pool. It was just a mirage (海市蜃楼). How does a mirage happen? The light and air play with our eyes. Normally, light travels in a straight line as a rule, but it can bend and change directions depending on what it passes through. This bending is called “refraction (折射)”. If different layers (层) of air are at different temperatures, light will bend at different angles (角度) when passing through them. This can create a false (not true) image of things around. Mirages can be seen not only over water, but anywhere that can take in a lot of heat, for example, on the hot roads. The next time you think you see a pool of water on the road on a hot summer day, you will know it’s just a mirage—an image of the sky caused by bending light. Mirage is the magic of nature. When you meet it next time, just take a photo of it and enjoy the beautiful moment. 36. In paragraph 1 the writer uses the scene to ________. A. share the experience in a desert B. describe the brave man C. show when a mirage happens D. introduce what a mirage is 37. How does light travel normally? A. B. C. D. 38. The underlined word “them” in paragraph 3 refers to different ________. A. air layers B. angles C. temperatures D. directions 39. You may see the mirage ________. A. in a dark room B. under a stormy sky C. over a blue ocean D. in an icy forest 40. You probably read the text in ________. A. Crazy Animals B. Modern Art C. Amazing Nature D. Healthy Life D Since the beginning of this year, “city read” has become popular in China. On social media, like Weibo or Little Red Book, many young people post the pictures of their favorite bookstores and share their experiences finding these reading spaces. The popularity of reading books has something to do with the development of the public facilities (公共设施) across China. In Shanghai many buildings have been changed into cultural spaces, holding over 20 bookstores and more than 100 reading rooms. Also, if you travel to Beijing, you can reach bookstores within a ten-minute walk. Bookstore owners not only make a comfortable reading environment, but also come up with ideas to let readers have better reading experience. A cafe in Shenyang named Whoop Book holds weekly activities such as new book signings and salons about books and films. It has also offered a special “one-day store volunteer” experience. When Paper Talk Bookstore in Shenzhen provides chances for readers to enjoy reading. Hu Xin, a student studying in Shenzhen, took a part-time job in this bookstore. From making coffee to organizing books and making lists of good books, he had a busy but nice day. “Seeing so many people reading with my help gives me a strong feeling of satisfaction,” he said. Over the past two years, When Paper Talk Bookstore has grown from a small number of readers to over 300 members. In this digital era (数字时代), different offline bookstores can better meet the needs of young people. At the same time, they encourage the rediscovery (重新发现) of the beauty of reading paper books. 41.
