①Xu Jian is a visually impaired (视力受损的) woman in Shenzhen, Guangdong. For the past seven years, Xu’s guide dog Daimeng has been at her side at work and for everyday activities.
②Xu got the dog from the China Guide Dog Training Center in Dalian, Liaoning province, the first guide dog training center on the Chinese mainland. Wang Jingyu, a professor (教授) at Dalian Medical University, set it up in 2006. Over the years, the center has trained about 400 guide dogs, with more than 350 now serving in 27 provinces and cities across China.
③According to Wang Xin, a trainer in the center, 90 percent of the center’s guide dogs are Labradors, which are kind and smart. Once trainers find good guide baby dogs, the dogs need to take personality (性格) tests. A good guide dog should not be too curious (好奇的), excitable or shy as these personalities could cause problems during work, according to Wang.
④One volunteer, surnamed Sun, has raised four baby dogs since 2019. “Raising guide dogs is quite different from raising pet dogs,” said Sun. She strictly follows the center’s guidelines for their care. She also guides them along raised paths (道路) made for visually impaired people so they can feel them and know they are safe.
⑤However, even if the dogs pass all tests, they could still be turned down if they don’t enjoy the role of a guide dog, Wang added. Typically, guide dogs serve for six to 10 years. Those who are turned down or are too old are usually taken in as pets by their trainers, those who raised them, or volunteers.

B. She raised her eyes from her work but said nothing.
C. It was hard for the woman to raise four kids by herself.
D. I really want to raise two important questions with you.
8. What can we learn about a guide dog from the passage?
A. A guide dog needs to enjoy its role as a guide dog.
B. A good guide dog should be excitable during work.
C. It takes a trainer six to 10 years to train a guide dog.
D. The trainer should take personality tests with a guide dog.
9. What will a guide dog become when it is old?
A. A police helper. B. A volunteer. C. A pet. D. A trainer.
10. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Guiding the way B. Enjoying hard work
C. Explore the nature D. Living a simple life

①People who have trouble walking or moving around often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece (希腊) now offer a new way for people in wheelchairs to get into the water by themselves. It’s called Seatrac.
②Seatrac is a chair on a moving ramp (坡道). It can carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea, the person can either stay in the chair, enjoying the water, or go for a swim. When the person wants to get out of the water, he can use the remote control (遥控器) to bring the chair back to the top of the ramp. It’s even possible for him or her to take a shower in the chair after a swim.
③Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece. The idea for it came when one of the inventors, Ignatios Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair. The friend said he enjoyed the sea, but didn’t like having to be carried into the ocean.
④Mr. Fotiou wanted to find an easier way for wheelchair users to get into the water. He worked hard with others to develop the Seatrac system. He made the system simple to put in place and easy to run. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach the Seatrac. The system is solar-powered (太阳能的), and can keep running even if the electricity (电) goes out.
⑤This summer, the Seatrac system is being used at over 220 beaches in Greece and other countries. Thanks to Seatrac, people who use wheelchairs now can cool down in the sea.
11. What can Seatrac do according to the passage?
A. Help the disabled go home after a swim.
B. Choose a suitable beach for the disabled.
C. Help the disabled get in and out of the sea safely.
D. Make the disabled move around the beach freely.
12. What made Mr. Fotiou decide to develop Seatrac?
A. His partner’s advice. B. His deep love for the sea.
C. His friend’s difficulty. D. His wish to make friends.
13. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The development of the electricity.
B. The strong points of the Seatrac system.
C. The future of solar-powered wheelchairs.
D. The friendship between Fotiou and his friend.
14. Which of the following can best describe Seatrac according to the last paragraph?
A. Popular. B. Cheap. C. Natural. D. Dangerous.
15. Why does the writer write this passage?
A. To show the development of the Seatrac system.
B. To encourage care for disabled people around us.
C. To give advice on using solar-powered wheelchairs.
D. To introduce a new invention for wheelchair users.
【答案】11. C 12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了贵州六盘水海嘎小学的音乐教育故事。
【46题详解】
句意:它告诉我们,一位老师如何通过音乐改变学生的生活。“make a difference to...”是固定短语,意为“对……产生影响”,所以此处用different的名词形式difference。故填difference。
【47题详解】
句意:其校长郑龙自2002年起就在这所学校任教。根据“since 2002”可知,句子时态为现在完成时,其结构为“have/has + 过去分词” ,主语Zheng Long是第三人称单数,所以用has taught。故填has taught。
【48题详解】
句意:现在,事情变得真正好。修饰形容词good要用副词,true的副词形式是truly,表示“真地;确实”。故填truly。
【49题详解】
句意:当他第一次来到学校时,他发现这里的学生害羞而安静,所以他决定通过音乐来打开他们的心扉。此处缺少主语,指代前面提到的“Gu Ya” ,在句子中作主语,所以用主格he。故填he。
【50题详解】
句意:当他第一次来到学校时,他发现这里的学生害羞而安静,所以他决定通过音乐来打开他们的心扉。“decide to do sth”是固定用法,意为“决定做某事”,空处要填不定式。故填to open。
【51题详解】
句意:2018年,这所学校组建了第一支名为“遇”的摇滚乐队。表示在具体的某一年,要用介词in,句首单词首字母大写,所以填In。故填In。
【52题详解】
句意:15岁的女孩熊婷以前是那里的学生。这里泛指“一名学生”,student读音以辅音音素开头,所以用不定冠词a。故填a。
【53题详解】
句意:我以前很害羞、安静,但顾老师的课改变了我。前半句说“我以前很害羞内向”,后半句说“顾老师的课改变了我”,前后是转折关系,所以用but。故填but。
【54题详解】
句意:然后我成了班上最勇敢的女孩。根据“in my class”可知,是在班级范围内进行比较,要用形容词的最高级形式,brave的最高级是the bravest,表示“最勇敢的”。故填the bravest。
【55题详解】
句意:因为顾老师的善良,这所小学里的音乐故事仍在继续。Gu’s是名词所有格形式,后接名词,kind的名词形式是kindness,意为“善良;善举”。故填kindness。

①Xu Jian is a visually impaired (视力受损的) woman in Shenzhen, Guangdong. For the past seven years, Xu’s guide dog Daimeng has been at her side at work and for everyday activities.
②Xu got the dog from the China Guide Dog Training Center in Dalian, Liaoning province, the first guide dog training center on the Chinese mainland. Wang Jingyu, a professor (教授) at Dalian Medical University, set it up in 2006. Over the years, the center has trained about 400 guide dogs, with more than 350 now serving in 27 provinces and cities across China.
③According to Wang Xin, a trainer in the center, 90 percent of the center’s guide dogs are Labradors, which are kind and smart. Once trainers find good guide baby dogs, the dogs need to take personality (性格) tests. A good guide dog should not be too curious (好奇), excitable or shy as these personalities could cause problems during work, according to Wang.
④One volunteer, surnamed Sun, has raised four baby dogs since 2019. “Raising guide dogs is quite different from raising pet dogs,” said Sun. She strictly follows the center’s guidelines for their care. She also guides them along raised paths (道路) made for visually impaired people so they can feel them and know they are safe.
⑤However, even if the dogs pass all tests, they could still be turned down if they don’t enjoy the role of a guide dog, Wang added. Typically, guide dogs serve for six to 10 years. Those who are turned down or are too old are usually taken in as pets by their trainers, those who raised them, or volunteers.
6. In Paragraph 2, what can we know about the China Guide Dog Training Center in Dalian?
A. Xu Jian set it up in 2006. B. Its services cover many areas.
C. It only trains homeless dogs. D. It’s the largest center in China.
7. Which italic (斜体) word has the same meaning as the underlined word “raised” in Paragraph 4?
A. They raised the money to buy food for old people.
B. She raised her eyes from her work but said nothing.
C. It was hard for the woman to raise four kids by herself.
D. I really want to raise two important questions with you.
8. What can we learn about a guide dog from the passage?
A. A guide dog needs to enjoy its role as a guide dog.
B. A good guide dog should be excitable during work.
C. It takes a trainer six to 10 years to train a guide dog.
D The trainer should take personality tests with a guide dog.
9. What will a guide dog become when it is old?
A. A police helper. B. A volunteer. C. A pet. D. A trainer.
10. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Guiding the way B. Enjoying hard work
C. Explore the nature D. Living a simple life
C
①People who have trouble walking or moving around often have a hard time enjoying the beach. But hundreds of beaches in Greece (希腊) now offer a new way for people in wheelchairs to get into the water by themselves. It’s called Seatrac.
②Seatrac is a chair on a moving ramp (坡道). It can carry a disabled person into the sea. Once in the sea, the person can either stay in the chair, enjoying the water, or go for a swim. When the person wants to get out of the water, he can use the remote control (遥控器) to bring the chair back to the top of the ramp. It’s even possible for him or her to take a shower in the chair after a swim.
③Seatrac was invented and developed in Greece. The idea for it came when one of the inventors, Ignatios Fotiou, was talking with a friend who used a wheelchair. The friend said he enjoyed the sea, but didn’t like having to be carried into the ocean.
④Mr. Fotiou wanted to find an easier way for wheelchair users to get into the water. He worked hard with others to develop the Seatrac system. He made the system simple to put in place and easy to run. A wooden walkway allows wheelchair users to reach the Seatrac. The system is solar-powered (太阳能的), and can keep running even if the electricity (电) goes out.
⑤This summer, the Seatrac system is being used at over 220 beaches in Greece and other countries. Thanks to Seatrac, people who use wheelchairs now can cool down in the sea.
11. What can Seatrac do according to the passage?
A. Help the disabled go home after a swim.
B. Choose a suitable beach for the disabled.
C. Help the disabled get in and out of the sea safely.
D. Make the disabled move around the beach freely.
12. What made Mr. Fotiou decide to develop Seatrac?
A. His partner’s advice. B. His deep love for the sea.
C. His friend’s difficulty. D. His wish to make friends.
13. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The development of the electricity.
B. The strong points of the Seatrac system.
C. The future of solar-powered wheelchairs.
D. The friendship between Fotiou and his friend.
14. Which of the following can best describe Seatrac according to the last paragraph?
A. Popular. B. Cheap. C. Natural. D. Dangerous.
15. Why does the writer write this passage?
A. To show the development of the Seatrac system.
B. To encourage care for disabled people around us.
C. To give advice on using solar-powered wheelchairs.
D. To introduce a new invention for wheelchair users.
