I wondered why she spent hours talking to people she didn’t know well. One cold winter evening, I accidentally heard her talking to Mrs. Clark, an old lady who lived alone next door. They just talked about small things like meals and roses in the park. “How meaningless!” I thought. But Mom slowly explained, “To her, this might be the only conversation all day. Even a small talk can make her feel cared for.” Years later, when I became a nurse in an old people’s home, I finally understood. Many elderly people feel lonely because they had no family nearby. Health problems also made it harder for them to join in outdoor activities. Every afternoon, they’d sit in the garden staring at their empty phones. One old man told me, “The only voice I hear all day is the TV news.” That’s when I realized how important Mom’s phone calls were. Those simple conversations weren’t just about weather or flowers. They filled those lonely hearts. When Mom asked, “Did you take your medicine today?” or “What’s your favorite song from the 1950s?” she was saying, “You matter.” Now I call Mrs. Clark every week. We talk about her cat, her vegetable garden and so on. Her voice always sounds brighter when we hang up. Mom has taught me that kindness doesn’t have to be big. Sometimes, it only takes a five-minute call to turn a lonely day into a sunny one. 1．What did the writer think of her mother’s phone calls at first? A．They seemed meaningless.

This is called Tonghua porcelain (瓷器), and it comes from a place called Fengxi town in Chaozhou city, Guangdong Province. It’s so special that it became a national treasure in 2008. Ye Hao, born in 1995, comes from a family that makes Tonghua porcelain. He’s been learning how to make it for many years and is creatively bringing new life to it. Seeing the number of people with Tonghua skills drop quickly, he felt sad and he wanted to save the art. Ye began learning it in high school, believing that every Tonghua porcelain piece has a life of its own. “My grandpa always encouraged me to practice more,” Ye said. He learned that the clay needs the right amount of water, or it will crack (裂开). After learning all the skills, he found that designing is the hardest part, because Tonghua porcelain has lots of little cut-out shapes, and you have to think about how big they are and how they’re put together. If a cut-out is too large, it is likely to crack during firing. Ye wants to make the art more creative, so he’s connecting Tonghua porcelain with daily things and his hobbies. For example, he made a special pin (胸针) with a clay rose that was picked by the Culture Department in Guangdong as a special gift. “I also like cartoons, so I designed six cups with characters from the cartoon The Outcast on top, mixing traditional art with pop culture,” he said.   He promises he will keep finding ways to make the art part of everyday life and show it to more people with new designs. 1．Where does Tonghua porcelain come from?

I wondered why she spent hours talking to people she didn’t know well. One cold winter evening, I accidentally heard her talking to Mrs. Clark, an old lady who lived alone next door. They just talked about small things like meals and roses in the park. “How meaningless!” I thought. But Mom slowly explained, “To her, this might be the only conversation all day. Even a small talk can make her feel cared for.” Years later, when I became a nurse in an old people’s home, I finally understood. Many elderly people feel lonely because they had no family nearby. Health problems also made it harder for them to join in outdoor activities. Every afternoon, they’d sit in the garden staring at their empty phones. One old man told me, “The only voice I hear all day is the TV news.” That’s when I realized how important Mom’s phone calls were. Those simple conversations weren’t just about weather or flowers. They filled those lonely hearts. When Mom asked, “Did you take your medicine today?” or “What’s your favorite song from the 1950s?” she was saying, “You matter.” Now I call Mrs. Clark every week. We talk about her cat, her vegetable garden and so on. Her voice always sounds brighter when we hang up. Mom has taught me that kindness doesn’t have to be big. Sometimes, it only takes a five-minute call to turn a lonely day into a sunny one. 1．What did the writer think of her mother’s phone calls at first? A．They seemed meaningless.

A．④②③① B．④①②③ C．②④③① 【参考答案】1．C 2．C 3．B 4．A 【语篇解读】本文摘选自小说《野性的呼唤》，主要讲述了主角Buck的悲惨遭遇。 【详情解析】 1．细节理解题。根据“Gold-diggers (淘金者) had found gold in northwest Canada, and these men wanted big, strong dogs to work for them in the cold and snow of the north.”可知，淘金者想要大狗是为了训练它们来进行淘金工作。故选C。 2．推理判断题。文中两次提到“Buck did not read the newspapers” ，结合后文可知，是因为巴克不知道加拿大西北部发现金矿这一消息，也就不会预料到自己会陷入危险处境。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“He jumped at the man in anger. The man caught Buck and forced him to lie on his back. For a few moments he was unable to move. When the train arrived, the two men threw him into the train...”可知，巴克很生气并试图反抗，被扔上火车时应该是想逃跑。故选B。 4． 细节理解题。根据文章内容，首先是“Buck had lived as a king in Mr. Miller’s house” ，即④；然后“Manuel took Buck out for a walk” ，即②；接着“Buck was tied with a rope and sold” ，即③；最后“Buck was thrown into the train” ，即① 。所以正确顺序是④②③①。故选A。 （七） （2025年湖南省湘西州花垣县中考第二次适应性考试） The year 2025 marks the 750th anniversary of Marco Polo’s arrival in China.

This is called Tonghua porcelain (瓷器), and it comes from a place called Fengxi town in Chaozhou city, Guangdong Province. It’s so special that it became a national treasure in 2008. Ye Hao, born in 1995, comes from a family that makes Tonghua porcelain. He’s been learning how to make it for many years and is creatively bringing new life to it. Seeing the number of people with Tonghua skills drop quickly, he felt sad and he wanted to save the art. Ye began learning it in high school, believing that every Tonghua porcelain piece has a life of its own. “My grandpa always encouraged me to practice more,” Ye said. He learned that the clay needs the right amount of water, or it will crack (裂开). After learning all the skills, he found that designing is the hardest part, because Tonghua porcelain has lots of little cut-out shapes, and you have to think about how big they are and how they’re put together. If a cut-out is too large, it is likely to crack during firing. Ye wants to make the art more creative, so he’s connecting Tonghua porcelain with daily things and his hobbies. For example, he made a special pin (胸针) with a clay rose that was picked by the Culture Department in Guangdong as a special gift. “I also like cartoons, so I designed six cups with characters from the cartoon The Outcast on top, mixing traditional art with pop culture,” he said.   He promises he will keep finding ways to make the art part of everyday life and show it to more people with new designs. 1．Where does Tonghua porcelain come from? A．In Chaozhou city, Guangdong Province. B．In Guizhou city, Guiyang Province. C．In Liuzhou city, Guangxi Province. 2．Which of the following is true according to the passage? A．Ye Hao is about forty years old now. B．Ye Hao began learning Tonghua porcelain in university. C．Ye Hao is a creative Tonghua porcelain maker who wants to save the art. 3．What is the most challenging part in designing Tonghua porcelain? A．Balancing the size and structure. B．Finding culture from daily life. C．Learning the traditional skills. 4．To mix traditional art with pop culture, what did Ye Hao design? A．Pretty plates with clay flowers on them.

Born into a kite-making family, Yang often saw kites with bright colors and different shapes in her grandfather’s workshop. Yang learned the skill from her grandfather in 1982. After practicing the skill for 10 years, she started her own shop at the age of 26. “Many places around the world have a tradition of flying kites,” Yang said. “But I think the cultural background behind our kites is unique.” On Yang’s kites, people can see not only common designs like butterflies and birds, but also some prints telling Chinese history. For example, she once made a kite showing a phoenix (凤凰) that was lined with portraits (肖像) of 50 famous women from Chinese history on each side. To make these portraits lively and accurate, she studied historical books carefully and even asked fashion historians for help to make sure the clothes and accessories (配饰) were true. It was a very hard but satisfying job. Yang said that each woman is different in looks, clothes and make-up style. To create their portraits, she made lots of effort to check historical records and talk about details with experts. “It took me a lot of time,” Yang said, “but when I explain the stories of the kites to foreign people, I feel a great sense of achievement.” In her free time, she travels to different countries including Germany, Australia, the United States and New Zealand to tell people stories of Chinese kites and the traditional ways they are made. “It is an important job of mine to spread our heritage (遗产) around the world and among our children,” she said. 1．How old was Yang when she learned the kite-making skill from her grandfather?
