My classmates told me that a fat man would come and put toys in one’s stocking (长筒袜) on Christmas Eve. Finally, Christmas Eve arrived. I took out my longest, cleanest stocking and put it on my bed. However, when I woke up early on Christmas Day and checked the stocking, there was nothing in it—There was no Santa in the world! From then on, I told my friends the story every December. I had to tell it in a funny way, or I would cry. How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago, on Christmas Eve, a man knocked on my door. He said, “I’ve been looking for you for twenty-five years.” He gave me a red stocking filled with candy and toys, and left. On top of the stocking was a card. It read: “For Becky—I have missed you since the second grade, but you’ve always lived in my heart. Santa.” Then I recognized (认出) Jill’s handwriting. I met her just two months ago. I later discovered that the man was her father. Jill had seen the sadness in my eyes and decided to do something with her father. Now I believe that Santa is real. Santa lives inside kind people.

Her pupils would be “happiness collectors”. They had to see what would happen when they tried to bring happiness to those around them. Several days later, Carla turned up carrying a big bag. “Here in this bag I have all the happiness I’ve collected so far,” she said, smiling. Everyone was filled with expectation, but Carla didn’t want to show what was in the bag. Instead, she pulled out a small box and gave it to her teacher. When Miss Ellis took the box, Carla took an instant camera out of her own pocket and stood with it at the ready. “Open it, Miss Ellis.” The teacher slowly opened the box and looked inside. A big smile shone on her face, and at that moment Carla took a photo. She offered the photo to Miss Ellis along with a piece of paper. The teacher read the paper in silence. Then she looked at the bag. “It’s a great big pile of smiles!” Carla said and opened the bag. Hundreds of photos fell out, all of different smiles, each one of them beautiful. The whole class wondered how Carla could create such a great big chain (链) of happiness. All that was in the box were photos of big smiles. Everyone who saw them felt happiness, and every person smiled, in return, without even thinking about it. Just at that moment, Carla took a photo of each one of them. She gave them their own photo along with a piece of paper, which asked them to do the same with other people, and to send a copy of the photos to her home address.

At lunch, Marty was talking about how he could make things float (浮动). He had a ring (戒指) in one hand and a pencil in the other. That’s when I saw it: a thin piece of fishing line (线) was around the end of the pencil and connected to Marty’s shirt!

The lorry’s a bit like a house on wheels (轮子), but it has less space. However, we have everything we need for our journey. It’s not very fast. That is OK — we’re not in a hurry. Our schoolbooks are the same as the ones back home, but my mum gives us lessons, and then sends our work to teachers on the Internet. My favourite way of learning, however, is by going on special trips that my parents plan. We’ve seen so many wonderful places, people and animals. In September, we went camping in the Kalahari Desert (卡拉哈里沙漠). We learned lots about the night sky. The Kalahari’s not like other deserts because it gets such a lot of rain — some parts of it look really green. We had a guide, and he told us about all the lovely animals that live there. In November, we went on a whale-watching (鲸) tour in South Africa and saw six whales. We said hello to them. One even swam under our boat. That was really thrilling. I knew whales were big, but I couldn’t believe they were so large. In December, we drove to Boulders Beach in South Africa. There are thousands of African penguins (企鹅) on the beach. These cute black and white birds can swim, but cannot fly. Many of the visitors to the beach enjoyed seeing their funny walk, but I was especially interested in how clever they were at keeping their babies safe. 1．What do we know about the writer’s family’s lorry?

Claire asked the school board（董事会）to add solar panels (太阳电池板) to the project because, she explained, clean energy would be helpful to a really modern school. The board liked the idea but said it could offer just $25,000, one-fifth of the cost. So Claire organized a group of kids and grown-ups who set to work raising the rest(剩 余部分). They sold their second-hand books, put on talent shows and asked for donations（捐赠）, even going door-to-door for them. One donated more than half the cost! After two years of hard work, the group paid for the solar panels, which now provide one-fourth of the school's electricity needs—saving the neighborhood thousands of dollars. “My favorite part about this project was that one person could start something small and then the project could grow and have a big influence on the community,” Claire said. “There are always going to be hard parts. When there’s a challenge in front of you, you can learn from it and use it as chance to overcome it.” 1．How much money did Claire need to raise?

I often asked her, “Why do you teach? What keeps you teaching?” The answer was always the same. “There is always that one child, that one moment that is worth it.” Now, I am a teacher, too. But different from my mother, I teach students challenging activities outdoors. And when my mother asked me the similar questions, my answer was, “It’s that one child, that one special moment.” One of those moments happened recently. I was working with a group of girls in a four-week programme. Everything went on well through the “Team” events and we were moving on to a “High” one called the Wire (钢索) Walk. In the Wire Walk, each girl had to climb up the pegs (木桩) in a tree to a wire, 8 meters high, and then walk across it. Of course, everything was safe for sure. When I asked who would try, a few girls raised their hands, and they finished the Wire Walk with little difficulty. But when it was Susie’s turn, it seemed that she didn’t really want to. I asked Susie if she was ready. She answered softly, “I suppose.” Now, Susie was at the foot of the tree. She started to make the long reach for the first peg. The other girls cheered for her. Then I found Susie was becoming nervous with every step. I realised she would not go much further. Susie was halfway up. Then she stopped and held the tree tight (紧紧地), looking very afraid. Her eyes were closed. With her face against the tree, she cried, “I can’t.” The other girls sat in silence. I talked quietly to Susie, trying to relax her. I talked for a long time till I ran out of words. “I will still be your friend no matter what, Susie!” Mary broke the silence. To my surprise, Susie lifted her head and looked up to the wire. Then she turned to look down at Mary and smiled. Mary smiled back. Finally, Susie made it all the way across that wire. When she returned to the ground, the first hug she looked for was from Mary. We all cheered. Moments like this keep me doing what I do. The young hearts continue to fill me with courage. 1．What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A．The writer’s mother is a teacher.

Before and after school each day, he put on his wet suit, picked up his equipment, swam out beyond the surf line and waited to be challenged by his three-to-six-foot friends. One afternoon, the lifeguard reported over the phone to my husband Wilson that Leon’s eye was badly injured (受伤) by his board. Wilson rushed him to the hospital, where he received 26 stitches (缝针) from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose. I was on an airplane flying home from a meeting while Leon’s eye was being stitched. Wilson drove directly to the airport after they left doctor’s office. He greeted me at the gate and told me Leon was waiting in the car. “Leon?” I questioned. I remember thinking the waves must have been bad that day. “He’s been in an accident, but he’s going to be fine,” said my husband. A travelling working mother’s worst nightmare (噩梦) had come true. I ran to the car so fast that the heel of my shoe broke off. I swung open the door to see that my youngest son had a patch (眼罩) over his eye and was leaning toward me crying, “Oh, Ma, I’m so glad you’re home.” I cried in his arms, telling him how awful I felt about not being there when the lifeguard called. “It’s okay, Mom,” he comforted me. “You don’t know how to surf anyway.” “What?” I asked, confused by his logic. “I’ll be fine. The doctor says I can go back in the water in eight days,” said my son. I wanted to tell him he wasn’t allowed to go near water again until he was 35, but instead, I bit my tongue and hoped he would forget about surfing. For the next seven days, he kept pressing me to let him surf again. One day after I had repeated “No” to him for the 100th time, he beat me at my own game. “Mom, you taught us never to give up what we love,” he said. And I gave in. Back then, Leon was just a boy with a passion for surfing. Now he’s a man with a passion for surfing. And he’s a man with a responsibility. He is one of the top 25 professional surfers in the world. Passionate people stick to what they love and never give up. 1．What happened to Leon one afternoon while surfing? A．He lost his surfboard. B．He saved another surfer. C．He was injured by his board.

One day his grandfather said to him, “Mario, I bet you a big bag of popcorn you don’t have as many friends as you think. I’m sure many are nothing more than acquaintance (略有交情，熟人) or partners.” Mario agreed to the bet without a second thought. However, he wasn’t sure how to test who were real friends, so he asked his grandpa. “Take this. It’s an invisible (透明的) ‘chair’. If you take it to school and manage to sit on it, you can tell who your real friends are.” his grandpa said. Mario took the special “chair” to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and stood in the middle, with his “chair”. Mario tried hard to sit on the “chair”. Having difficulty seeing it, he missed and fell down many times. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. “Wait, wait, just a small problem.” he said. But again he missed the seat, causing more surprised looks. Mario tried many times until, suddenly, he sat in mid-air... Then he finally experienced the magic that his grandfather had been talking about. Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana-three of his best friends-holding him up with their strong arms, so he wouldn’t fall. Meanwhile, many others he had thought of as friends had done nothing but making fun of him, enjoying his every fall. And there the show came to an end. Leaving with his three friends, he explained to them the magic “chair” test. And he learned true friends are those who care for us, and not just any acquaintance who happens to be passing by.

My classmates told me that a fat man would come and put toys in one’s stocking (长筒袜) on Christmas Eve. Finally, Christmas Eve arrived. I took out my longest, cleanest stocking and put it on my bed. However, when I woke up early on Christmas Day and checked the stocking, there was nothing in it—There was no Santa in the world! From then on, I told my friends the story every December. I had to tell it in a funny way, or I would cry. How could I know that Santa was just late? Nine years ago, on Christmas Eve, a man knocked on my door. He said, “I’ve been looking for you for twenty-five years.” He gave me a red stocking filled with candy and toys, and left. On top of the stocking was a card. It read: “For Becky—I have missed you since the second grade, but you’ve always lived in my heart. Santa.” Then I recognized (认出) Jill’s handwriting. I met her just two months ago. I later discovered that the man was her father. Jill had seen the sadness in my eyes and decided to do something with her father. Now I believe that Santa is real. Santa lives inside kind people. He listens to friends and brings warmth and hope. 1．The underlined sentence “I had to tell it in a funny way, or I would cry.” shows that Becky ________.

Lexie Alford, from California, America, finished traveling to every country in the world at the age of 21. ②Lexie Alford comes from a traveling family. Her mother began her own travel business at a young age, and always took Lexie with her on all of her travels. By the time she was only 18 years old, Lexie had already visited 70 countries. That made her want to visit the rest of the world. In October 2017, Lexie began a trip to visit all 195 countries in the world. Two years later, she finished it. ③Lexie used planes, boats and trains to get around. But she liked to travel by train most. “Traveling on trains is slow travel.

Even in the hard times, she never thought of giving up. “I’m lucky I made it at last. I felt tired, but it was still an exciting trip. I experienced nothing but love and kindness from the people I met in each and every country,” she said. “And I learned a lot about the world. The world would be so boring if everything was the same everywhere. The differences make discovering new cultures such a beautiful experience.” ⑤Lexie hopes others, especially women and young people, can go out and see the world.

One day I caught a lucky break. At lunch, Marty was talking about how he could make things float (浮动). He had a ring (戒指) in one hand and a pencil in the other. That’s when I saw it: a thin piece of fishing line (线) was around the end of the pencil and connected to Marty’s shirt! Sure enough, he made the ring “float” by moving it over the pencil and hanging (悬挂) it from the line. No one else noticed the line, and soon the whole dining hall was cheering. When other students left, I walked over. It was time to end the Magic Marty show. “I know how you did it,” I said, looking him right in the eye. “Maybe,” Marty answered. “But the first law (法则) of magic is that.” “It was the fishing line.” Marty became silent. He looked a bit worried. Without all his confidence, he seemed worse. I suddenly felt bad. “So, do you want to break the law of magic? Are you going to say out the secret?” he asked. I thought about it for a moment. If I did, I would finally be able to tell that Marty’s magic was fake. But would that really make me feel happy? What about Marty? He might lose his new friends. How would that make him feel? “No,” I said. “It will be a secret between you and me.” Marty let out a relieved sigh (松了一口气) and I turned to walk away. “Wait!” Marty jumped in front of me. “You’ve got a pretty good eye for magic.

We’re travelling around Africa. The lorry’s a bit like a house on wheels (轮子), but it has less space. However, we have everything we need for our journey. It’s not very fast. That is OK — we’re not in a hurry. Our schoolbooks are the same as the ones back home, but my mum gives us lessons, and then sends our work to teachers on the Internet. My favourite way of learning, however, is by going on special trips that my parents plan. We’ve seen so many wonderful places, people and animals. In September, we went camping in the Kalahari Desert (卡拉哈里沙漠). We learned lots about the night sky. The Kalahari’s not like other deserts because it gets such a lot of rain — some parts of it look really green. We had a guide, and he told us about all the lovely animals that live there. In November, we went on a whale-watching (鲸) tour in South Africa and saw six whales. We said hello to them. One even swam under our boat. That was really thrilling. I knew whales were big, but I couldn’t believe they were so large. In December, we drove to Boulders Beach in South Africa. There are thousands of African penguins (企鹅) on the beach. These cute black and white birds can swim, but cannot fly. Many of the visitors to the beach enjoyed seeing their funny walk, but I was especially interested in how clever they were at keeping their babies safe. 1．What do we know about the writer’s family’s lorry? A．It’s slow. B．It’s expensive. C．It has six wheels. D．It was made in Africa. 2．One difference between the Kalahari and other deserts is that ________ .

We said hello to them. One even swam under our boat. That was really thrilling.”可知，作者看到了鲸鱼，并和它们打了招呼，故此处thrilling应该是“令人兴奋的”意思。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“but I was especially interested in how clever they were at keeping their babies safe.”可知，作者认为它们很聪明。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。本文介绍了作者一家乘坐卡车环游非洲的所见所感，以选项D“环游非洲”为标题最合适。故选D。 11.（23-24八年级下·广东·期末） When Claire Vlases of Montana was in Grade 7, she learned about plans to modernize her middle school.

So Claire organized a group of kids and grown-ups who set to work raising the rest”可知，克莱尔要筹集剩下的费用，25000美元只是五分之一的费用，那么剩下的费用是25000x5-25000=100000，故选C。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段中“which now provide one-fourth of the school’s electricity needs—saving the neighborhood thousands of dollars”可知，太阳能电池板现在提供了学校四分之一的电力需求，为社区节省了数千美元，也就是说安装了太阳能电池板以后，费用在逐步降低，结合图示可知C项正确。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第一段“ Claire asked the school board（董事会）to add solar panels (太阳电池板) to the project”，第二段“The board liked the idea but said it could offer just $25,000, one-fifth of the cost”，第三段“So Claire organized a group of kids and grown-ups who set to work raising the rest”及最后一段“After two years of hard work, the group paid for the solar panels, which now provide one-fourth of the school’s electricity needs—saving the neighborhood thousands of dollars”可知，正确的顺序是：Claire建议增加太阳能板来帮助学校节约能源—董事会同意了，但没有足够的资金来增加太阳能电池板—Claire组织人们筹集资金—Claire和她的团队得到了足够的捐款来购买太阳能电池板，故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“My favorite part about this project was that one person could start something small and then the project could grow and have a big influence on the community”可知，Claire最喜欢这个项目的部分是，一个人可以开始一些小的事情，然后这个项目可以扩大，并对社区有很大的影响，也就是说“一件小事就会有重大的影响”。故选C。 5．最佳标题。根据全文内容可知，克莱尔为了帮助学校安装太阳能电池板，自己组织了一群孩子和成年人，他们坚持不懈，永不放弃，经过两年的艰苦努力以后，太能能电池板成功安装，并为学校和社区节省了大量的资金，所以文章最佳标题为“Never Give Up永不放弃”。故选D。 12.（23-24八年级下·天津河西·期末） My mother is a teacher, and I grew up with the challenges (挑战) a teacher faces. I often asked her, “Why do you teach? What keeps you teaching?” The answer was always the same. “There is always that one child, that one moment that is worth it.” Now, I am a teacher, too. But different from my mother, I teach students challenging activities outdoors. And when my mother asked me the similar questions, my answer was, “It’s that one child, that one special moment.” One of those moments happened recently. I was working with a group of girls in a four-week programme. Everything went on well through the “Team” events and we were moving on to a “High” one called the Wire (钢索) Walk. In the Wire Walk, each girl had to climb up the pegs (木桩) in a tree to a wire, 8 meters high, and then walk across it. Of course, everything was safe for sure. When I asked who would try, a few girls raised their hands, and they finished the Wire Walk with little difficulty. But when it was Susie’s turn, it seemed that she didn’t really want to. I asked Susie if she was ready. She answered softly, “I suppose.” Now, Susie was at the foot of the tree. She started to make the long reach for the first peg. The other girls cheered for her. Then I found Susie was becoming nervous with every step. I realised she would not go much further. Susie was halfway up. Then she stopped and held the tree tight (紧紧地), looking very afraid. Her eyes were closed. With her face against the tree, she cried, “I can’t.” The other girls sat in silence. I talked quietly to Susie, trying to relax her. I talked for a long time till I ran out of words. “I will still be your friend no matter what, Susie!” Mary broke the silence. To my surprise, Susie lifted her head and looked up to the wire. Then she turned to look down at Mary and smiled. Mary smiled back. Finally, Susie made it all the way across that wire. When she returned to the ground, the first hug she looked for was from Mary. We all cheered. Moments like this keep me doing what I do. The young hearts continue to fill me with courage. 1．What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A．The writer’s mother is a teacher.

Before and after school each day, he put on his wet suit, picked up his equipment, swam out beyond the surf line and waited to be challenged by his three-to-six-foot friends. One afternoon, the lifeguard reported over the phone to my husband Wilson that Leon’s eye was badly injured (受伤) by his board. Wilson rushed him to the hospital, where he received 26 stitches (缝针) from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose. I was on an airplane flying home from a meeting while Leon’s eye was being stitched. Wilson drove directly to the airport after they left doctor’s office. He greeted me at the gate and told me Leon was waiting in the car. “Leon?” I questioned. I remember thinking the waves must have been bad that day. “He’s been in an accident, but he’s going to be fine,” said my husband. A travelling working mother’s worst nightmare (噩梦) had come true. I ran to the car so fast that the heel of my shoe broke off. I swung open the door to see that my youngest son had a patch (眼罩) over his eye and was leaning toward me crying, “Oh, Ma, I’m so glad you’re home.” I cried in his arms, telling him how awful I felt about not being there when the lifeguard called. “It’s okay, Mom,” he comforted me. “You don’t know how to surf anyway.” “What?” I asked, confused by his logic. “I’ll be fine. The doctor says I can go back in the water in eight days,” said my son. I wanted to tell him he wasn’t allowed to go near water again until he was 35, but instead, I bit my tongue and hoped he would forget about surfing. For the next seven days, he kept pressing me to let him surf again. One day after I had repeated “No” to him for the 100th time, he beat me at my own game. “Mom, you taught us never to give up what we love,” he said. And I gave in. Back then, Leon was just a boy with a passion for surfing. Now he’s a man with a passion for surfing. And he’s a man with a responsibility. He is one of the top 25 professional surfers in the world.

However, he wasn’t sure how to test who were real friends, so he asked his grandpa. “Take this. It’s an invisible (透明的) ‘chair’. If you take it to school and manage to sit on it, you can tell who your real friends are.” his grandpa said. Mario took the special “chair” to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and stood in the middle, with his “chair”. Mario tried hard to sit on the “chair”. Having difficulty seeing it, he missed and fell down many times. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. “Wait, wait, just a small problem.” he said. But again he missed the seat, causing more surprised looks. Mario tried many times until, suddenly, he sat in mid-air... Then he finally experienced the magic that his grandfather had been talking about. Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana-three of his best friends-holding him up with their strong arms, so he wouldn’t fall. Meanwhile, many others he had thought of as friends had done nothing but making fun of him, enjoying his every fall. And there the show came to an end. Leaving with his three friends, he explained to them the magic “chair” test. And he learned true friends are those who care for us, and not just any acquaintance who happens to be passing by. A real friend would be less likely to make fun of us. 1．What bet did Grandpa have with Mario? A．Surprise could come after falling. B．Nobody would make fun of Mario.
