专题04 阅读理解之说明文 考点01 中考真题汇编 （一） （2025·湖北统考·中考真题）Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade; then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like papermaking were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It can not be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．Who invented silk in ancient China?

Space scientists have been greatly inspired (赋予灵感) by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names. Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true. Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission. Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2, 000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground. From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology. 1．In China, space scientists get ideas from ________ when naming satellites. ①old stories        ②traditional projects ③ancient famous people        ④ popular inventions A．①② B．①③ C．②④ D．③④ 2．What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage?

Then it was Niu’s turn. The audience suddenly became silent. However, after four or five seconds, Niu clearly heard someone next to the stage say in admiration, “So cool!” Niu Yu, 24, became a shining star at Shanghai Fashion Week for her confidence, even though she was wearing a prosthetic leg. When Niu was only 11, she unluckily lost her right leg during the Wenchuan Earthquake. Niu has won lots of praise. This gives those who have prejudice（偏见）against the disabled a hit on the nose. “I was touched by something they said. They said the traditional view was that sports were for people with healthy legs, but sports should be a kind of spirit. Even though I have lost a leg, I still deeply love sports and will do so forever,” Niu said. Actually, Niu first drew the public’s attention when she completed a marathon—a 42.195-kilometer race in 2018, which was held in Wenchuan to mark the tenth anniversary（周年纪念）of the earthquake. Now, Niu works as a photographer and has more than 960,000 followers on social platforms, such as Douyin. “I feel I have a social responsibility to bridge the disabled and the public.

It wasn’t just an ordinary camp—it was a place where technology and nature came together in an amazing way. On the first day, the camp leader introduced us to a new type of solar-powered tent. This tent was equipped with a small solar panel on its roof. During the day, the panel collected sunlight and converted it into electricity. At night, the tent provided enough light for us to read and play games. I was really surprised by how convenient it was. It didn’t require any batteries or connection to the power grid, making it an environmentally friendly choice. One day, we went on a nature walk. Our guide carried a special equipment called an air quality monitor. This small, handheld equipment could detect various pollutants in the air. As we walked through different areas, the monitor showed real-time data on its screen. We were shocked to find that the air quality near a busy road was much worse than that in the forest. This equipment not only made us realize environmental problems but also inspired us to think about ways to protect the environment. Another day, we learned about a new kind of water-purifying bottle. It could turn dirty water from a stream into clean, drinkable water. All the campers got a chance to test it. We filled the bottles with water from a nearby stream. After a few minutes of shaking, the water became clear. We drank the purified water, and it tasted great. This bottle was a real game-changer, especially for people living in areas where clean water was hard to find. At the end of the camp, I realized how much technology could contribute to our lives. These creative technologies not only made our camping experience more comfortable but also helped us understand and protect the environment better. I left the camp with a new appreciation for science and technology. 1．What was special about the solar-powered tent? A．It was made of a special material. B．It could generate electricity from sunlight. C．It was very large and could hold many people. D．It could change colors according to the weather. 2．Which made them realize the importance of environmental protection? A．A small solar panel. B．A water-purifying bottle. C．The air quality monitor. D．Batteries and connection. 3．Which is the correct structure of this text? (①= Paragraph 1) A． B． C． D． 4．What can we learn from the passage? A．Water-purifying bottles are necessary for camping. B．We should use more solar-powered products to save energy. C．Camping in the countryside is more fun with modern technology. D．Technology can make our lives better and help with environmental protection. 5．Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A．A Memorable Camping Experience B．The Magic of Creative Technologies C．The Development of Camping Equipment D．Protecting the Environment with Technology （四） （2025·湖北荆州·三模）①Lion dancing is a traditional Chinese performance that is important in cultural celebrations, like the Lunar New Year and other festivals. It brings good luck, happiness, and is believed to keep away bad spirits. The dance is done by two people who act like a lion, moving to the sound of drums and cymbals. Usually, men have been the main performers, but now women are also becoming well-known in this art. ②Male lion dancers are known for their strength and quick movements. The dance needs a lot of energy, with jumps, kicks, and balancing on high poles (柱子). Men often focus on these strong and fast actions, showing their physical power. The costumes are heavy, and the dancers need to work together well and have a lot of energy to make the lion look real. For many years, men have been the main performers, keeping this tradition alive. ③Female lion dancers, on the other hand, bring a different style to the dance. They show strength and skills but also add more smooth and graceful movements. Recently, a video of two female lion dancers doing a “drunken lion (醉酒的)” dance became very popular online. In this dance, two girls acted like a lion that had too much to drink, mixing funny and artistic moves. They practice hard to stumble and sway (摇摇欲坠) but still stay balanced and move together. This video showed how talented female lion dancers are and changed the idea that only men can do lion dancing. ④The role of men and women in lion dancing is changing. While men have been the main performers for a long time, women are now getting more recognition. This change shows how society is starting to see traditional roles differently. No matter if the dancer is male or female, lion dancing remains an important and exciting part of Chinese culture, enjoyed by everyone. 1．Why is lion dancing important in Chinese culture? A．Because it tells a story and gives a lesson. B．Because people can wear different costumes. C．Because it’s a symbol of good luck and happiness.

Different cultures follow their own special customs when a child’s baby teeth fall out. ②After a child loses his baby tooth in Greece, he makes a wish for a strong and healthy adult tooth while throwing his broken baby tooth onto the roof (屋顶). He tries to throw the tooth as straight as possible, hoping that a straight strong tooth will grow in its place. Children in China and Singapore also follow the same practice. ③But this isn’t the only way the fallen tooth is treated around the world. In parts of Africa, children throw lost upper (上面的) teeth on the roof and bury (埋) lost lower teeth in the ground. But in East Asia, it’s the opposite: lower teeth go on the roof and upper teeth are buried or hidden under the bed. In some mid-eastern countries such as Iraq and Egypt, kids are encouraged to throw their teeth up towards the sky. ④But do you know one of the most common ways to deal with it? Kids give the tooth to a mouse to make the adult tooth as strong as the mouse’s. They usually make a wish or sing a song during the ceremony. This happens in many places like Mexico, Russia, and New Zealand. ⑤In fact, kids in Argentina leave their tooth in a glass for a magical mouse who will bring a treasure while they sleep. In France and Switzerland, there’s a La Petit Souris (little mouse) that takes the thrown-away baby teeth for money or candy. In South Africa, the tooth is left in a slipper for the “tooth mouse”, who leaves a gift behind. How interesting it is! ⑥This is not all. In some places, the tooth is often kept at home and in some others, it is just thrown away. In modern times, parents are also storing their children’s baby teeth to keep stem cells (干细胞) for some medical research later in life. 1．To draw readers’ attention, the writer started the passage by ________. A．listing the facts. B．asking a question C．giving an example D．showing a reason 2．What are Chinese kids supposed to do with their fallen teeth? A．Hide them under the bed. B．Throw them into the air.

A．have candy in return B．get a magical skill C．feed the hungry mouse D．expect a strong tooth 5．What’s the correct structure of the passage? A． B． C．D． （六） （2025·湖北宜昌·模拟预测）In our daily life, we often meet many problems. Have you ever thought about why some people stay happy and solve these problems easily, while others feel sad all the time? The reason is positive thinking. Positive thinking is good for our health. Studies show that happy people are usually healthier. When we think positively, our bodies make things that can keep us away from illness. For example, happy patients often recover faster. Also, positive people like to exercise and eat healthy food, so they stay healthy. Positive thinking is good for our minds, too. Positive people see problems as chances to grow. When they face problems, they try to find ways to solve them. This helps them feel less stressed. For example, if a student fails a test, a positive student will find out what went wrong and study harder. A negative student may just feel bad and give up. Positive thinking can also make our friendships better. Happy people are fun to be with. Their good feelings make others happy. They often help and encourage friends, and friends love them more. We need to practice because it’s not easy to think positively. We can start by watching our thoughts. When we have negative thoughts, we should tell ourselves positive things. For example, don’t say “I can’t do it.” Say “I’ll do my best.” All in all, positive thinking can improve our lives. Let’s try to think positively and live better. 1．What does the underlined word “recover” mean in Paragraph 2? A．Hide carefully. B．Become better. C．Change quickly. D．Cover again. 2．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE about positive people? A．They are more likely to get sick. B．They always see problems as bad things. C．They seldom help their friends. D．They often have more enjoyable talks with others. 3．How does the writer support his idea in Paragraph 3? A．By asking questions. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving examples. D．By telling stories. 4．What is the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5．What is the best title of the passage? A．How problems come about in daily life. B．The differences between positive and negative thinking. C．The good points and ways of positive thinking. D．Why some people are more popular than others. （七） （2025·湖北襄阳·模拟预测）What are glaciers (冰川)? You can imagine them as hard ice and snow moving slowly on land. The United Nations (UN) says there are about 200,000 glaciers in the world, covering 10 percent of the land. They hold 70 percent of Earth’s fresh water, just like our huge “ice libraries”—store fresh water, support animals and plants, and provide water for rivers. Without them, many places would be short of water, cities near coasts could be under water, and animals might lose their homes. Sadly, glaciers are melting (融化) faster than ever because of climate (气候) change, pollution, rising temperatures and human activities. Glaciers are in great danger, so the UN has decided that 2025 is the year to protect glaciers. China has taken important steps to protect glaciers. Chinese scientists have invented special blankets (毯子) which can stop glaciers from getting too hot from the sun. They cover a 500-square-meter area with blankets made of geotextiles (土工织物) at Dagu Glacier in Sichuan. And very thin, high-tech blankets are used on Glacier No.1 in Xinjiang. They also make snow to help glaciers stay cold and melt more slowly. In April and May, 2023, scientists did this in the Bailanghe Glacier. It’s very important to watch glaciers carefully. In Tianshan Mountains, scientists use modern technology to watch glaciers for 24 hours, and local villagers report changes in the glaciers every day on the phone. China also makes laws to stop pollution near glacier areas. Protecting glaciers might seem like a huge task, but even small daily choices can help. Glaciers don’t have voices but we do. Every snowflake counts. Let’s speak up for them and start with simple actions right now! 1．The underlined word in Paragraph 1 “them” refers to ________. A．plants B．rivers C．animals D．glaciers 2．How does the writer mainly explain the importance of glaciers? A．By comparing facts. B．By listing problems. C．By using numbers and facts. D．By imagining a future world. 3．How many ways does China use to protect glaciers according to the passage? A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six. 4．What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing this article? A．To report how China protects glaciers. B．To explain why glaciers are important. C．To encourage all of us to protect glaciers. D．To describe what makes glaciers disappear. 5．In which part of the newspaper can we probably read the passage? A．Local News. B．Travel Guide. C．Climate Watch. D．Nature Riddle. （八） （2025·湖北黄石·模拟预测）In recent years heat and droughts (干旱) happen in many places around the world. The droughts caused serious problems, including shortages of food and energy, and problems with transportation. Droughts aren’t new, but the earth’s rising temperatures because of global warming are making them much harder to avoid. The drought in the Horn of Africa may be the most serious. For several years, the area has had very little rain during the rainy seasons. The area suffered (遭受) from its worst drought in 40 years. The dry conditions have killed millions of farm animals and damaged the crops. The United Nations warned that as many as 22 million people in the area were in danger of getting hungry. Almost two-thirds of Europe suffered from what might be the worst drought in 500 years. With temperatures reaching 40℃ and higher, many crops have died. The low water levels cut the amount of hydroelectric (水力发电的) power that could be produced. Some rivers were so low that the heavy boats that carried coal couldn’t travel on them. In the US, the two largest reservoirs (水库), Lake Mead and Lake Powell are fed by the Colorado River. But they were at low levels because of the drought. The reservoirs are used to create hydroelectric energy. That could end if water levels drop farther. China faced similar problems. Some areas suffered from a terrible drought, with temperatures as high as 45℃. The drought dried up much of the water in the Yangtze River.

You might have noticed many people choosing style over comfort and some even go to extremes (极端)to follow fashion. But we should remember: being fashionable isn’t everything. It’s more important to be healthy. Some people believe that they need to be a certain size to look good. So, they start extreme diets (日常饮食) that are not good for their health. They might not eat meals or eat too little, which can make them feel sick. Is it a healthy way to live? Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels. They might think high heels make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably, and it can increase risks of falls. Some even wear tight (紧的) clothes that influence blood circulation (循环) making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health? Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often or at very high temperatures can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money? So, let’s rethink what’s really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being? Clothes or hairstyles don’t tell us anything about a person’s character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let’s eat properly and exercise regularly. Remember, your worth is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person. 1．Why do some people go on extreme diets according to the passage? A．Because the diets are healthy.

Not by making it or spending it, but by giving it away. ②In an experiment (实验) in Switzerland, researchers gave each of the 50 volunteers £20 every week for four weeks. Half of the volunteers were asked to spend the money on themselves and make a note of how they spent the money. But the researchers asked the other half to spend the money on another person. ③After that, all 50 volunteers did the same task in a lab. They were asked to think of a person who they would like to give money to. Then they had to decide how much money, from £3 to £20, they wanted to give away. While the volunteers thought about this, the researchers studied their brain activity using an MRI machine. ④The results showed two things. First, the 25 volunteers who gave their money away during the four weeks were more generous (慷慨的) and chose to give more money away in the lab task. Second, those same people were much happier than the people who once spent the money on themselves. ⑤In the experiment, the volunteers were asked to give money away. But would you like to do this in your daily life? Can you really make yourself happy by giving? The answer is yes, but remember to start small. You can start by giving £1 to a homeless person. Gradually, you can try to change your habits so that you can save money to give away. For example, stop buying lunch every day and take a packed lunch to work or school. You can then save some money and give it to people in need. ⑥Learning to give money away is all about changing the way you behave. It’s about living with less and being more generous. And this will make you happy. 1．What was the difference between the two groups of volunteers in the experiment? A．One group received £20, while the other got nothing. B．One group wrote diaries, the other didn’t record anything. C．One group kept the money, the other returned it to researchers. D．One group spent money on themselves, the other on people in need. 2．What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A．Being a volunteer. B．Changing your habits. C．Giving money away. D．Doing the experiment. 3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．20 volunteers took part in the research. B．The experiment took place in Singapore. C．To study volunteers’ brain activity, the researchers used an MRI machine. D．Learning to give money away is not about changing the way we behave. 4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5．What is the best title for this passage? A．Giving Money to Others Brings Happiness. B．The Best Ways to Spend Your Money. C．Why We Should Never Give Away Money.

Here are some real - life stories about the balance of nature. Not many years ago, some farmers were worried because hawks (鹰) took many of their chickens, so the farmers killed many hawks. They no longer had to worry about their chickens. But then they had new worries. Mice ate the farmers’ food. How did this happen? Hawks ate not only chickens but also mice. They ate more mice than chickens. But the farmers did not know this. When they killed many hawks, they changed the balance of nature. Changing the balance is bad for nature. Sometimes when people move into a new place, they often cut down many plants. Some of these plants are food for animals. If the animals cannot find food to eat, they will die or have to leave the place. Here is another example. In a place of the United States, the giraffes there ate a kind of rose. The lions there ate the giraffes. The number of giraffes, lions and wild roses did not change much if people kept things as they were. But people killed many lions to protect the giraffes. Soon there were so many giraffes that they ate up all the roses. Then the giraffes began to eat leaves of young trees. These trees were important to people. So people thought of ways to protect trees. Now the giraffes had nothing to eat, and many of them died. This was another lesson from nature. Nature is like a huge family where everything depends on each other. We should take good care of nature and keep it balanced. If we do, everything in nature can live happily together! 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By giving a fact. B．By asking a question. C．By giving an opinion.

Now, let’s take a look at three of them. Luban Lock Luban Lock was first created by Chinese carpenter Lu Ban about 2,000 years ago. It is said that Lu Ban used six wooden pieces to make a toy that looks like a lock for his son. The lock has a lot to do with solid geometry (立体几何). It’s hard to separate the six pieces. However, it is easier to unlock a Luban Lock than to put it back together. Now, there are Luban Locks made up of nine or more pieces. Huarong Pass (华容道) Huarong Pass is a traditional Chinese block - moving puzzle. Every block is named after a character in the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, like Cao Cao, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun. To succeed in the game, players have to move the blocks to get “Cao Cao” out. This is a test of one’s math knowledge, for example the knowledge of geometric area (几何面积). According to the Chinese Puzzle website, it takes at least 81 steps to set “Cao Cao” free. Tangram (七巧板) Tangram is a classic Chinese puzzle made of seven flat shapes. These pieces can form a square when they are put together. By rearranging (重新排列) them, you can create thousands of different pictures, like animals or objects. This puzzle helps improve geometry (几何知识) skills and creativity. It’s fun to see how many shapes you can make! 1．Why did Lu Ban make Luban Lock? A．To practice his skills. B．To help his son have fun. C．To study solid geometry.

Why do some people love scary things? A group of scientists at the University of Pittsburgh in the US found that fear can sometimes be good for us. It can help us become more confident and make us feel happier and less stressed. It can also help build closer ties. In their study, 262 volunteers went into a house with scary things. They stayed there for 35 minutes and came across many scary things. They reported how they were feeling. Being scared in a safe place could be a good way to build up our confidence, explained Margee Kerr, one of the study’s scientist. It made the volunteers feel confident that they could manage a scary situation in real life. It helped them deal with the fears we all have. What’s more, the results showed that most of the volunteers felt happier and less stressed after the experience. This has to do with dopamine (多巴胺), something that the brain produces. It makes people feel excited, and this effect can last even after the danger has passed, according to the scientists. More than that, fear helps create strong social connections. In scary situations, people are more likely to feel unsure about the future. As a result, they stick together and depend more on each other for support. Scientists call this a “tend-and-befriend system”. It means in scary situations, people help their friends and make new ones, which makes them feel better and more protected. A good example of this is soldiers who fight side by side in war. 1．People love scary things because fear can make them ________. ① solve problems in real life    ② feel happier and less stressed ③ communicate more with friends    ④ more confident and build closer ties A．①② B．①③ C．②④ D．③④ 2．How does the writer start Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing facts. C．By asking questions. D．By expressing feelings. 3．What does the word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)? A．Brain. B．Fear. C．Effect. D．Dopamine. 4．Which is the right structure of the passage? (①= Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph2, …) A． B． C． D． 5．What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing the passage? A．To encourage people to watch scary movies. B．To introduce different ways to deal with fear. C．To explain something that the brain produces.

People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth. This magical cloth became known as “silk”, and it was so valuable that it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But then, something amazing happened! During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian traveled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed by, silk became so important that the trade road from Europe to China got its name—the Silk Road. The Silk Road became a busy highway for traders who carried things across deserts and mountains. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade; then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like papermaking were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined (融合) Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It can not be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．Who invented silk in ancient China?

Space scientists have been greatly inspired (赋予灵感) by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names. Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true. Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission. Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2, 000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground. From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology. 1．In China, space scientists get ideas from ________ when naming satellites. ①old stories        ②traditional projects ③ancient famous people        ④ popular inventions A．①② B．①③ C．②④ D．③④ 2．What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage?

When Niu was only 11, she unluckily lost her right leg during the Wenchuan Earthquake. Niu has won lots of praise. This gives those who have prejudice（偏见）against the disabled a hit on the nose. “I was touched by something they said. They said the traditional view was that sports were for people with healthy legs, but sports should be a kind of spirit. Even though I have lost a leg, I still deeply love sports and will do so forever,” Niu said. Actually, Niu first drew the public’s attention when she completed a marathon—a 42.195-kilometer race in 2018, which was held in Wenchuan to mark the tenth anniversary（周年纪念）of the earthquake. Now, Niu works as a photographer and has more than 960,000 followers on social platforms, such as Douyin. “I feel I have a social responsibility to bridge the disabled and the public. Showing my life to the public can allow them to better understand our group and can also tell other disabled people that our society is more tolerant（宽容）than they imagined,” she explained. 1．What is Niu Yu now?

It wasn’t just an ordinary camp—it was a place where technology and nature came together in an amazing way. On the first day, the camp leader introduced us to a new type of solar-powered tent. This tent was equipped with a small solar panel on its roof. During the day, the panel collected sunlight and converted it into electricity. At night, the tent provided enough light for us to read and play games. I was really surprised by how convenient it was. It didn’t require any batteries or connection to the power grid, making it an environmentally friendly choice. One day, we went on a nature walk. Our guide carried a special equipment called an air quality monitor. This small, handheld equipment could detect various pollutants in the air. As we walked through different areas, the monitor showed real-time data on its screen. We were shocked to find that the air quality near a busy road was much worse than that in the forest. This equipment not only made us realize environmental problems but also inspired us to think about ways to protect the environment. Another day, we learned about a new kind of water-purifying bottle. It could turn dirty water from a stream into clean, drinkable water. All the campers got a chance to test it. We filled the bottles with water from a nearby stream. After a few minutes of shaking, the water became clear. We drank the purified water, and it tasted great. This bottle was a real game-changer, especially for people living in areas where clean water was hard to find. At the end of the camp, I realized how much technology could contribute to our lives. These creative technologies not only made our camping experience more comfortable but also helped us understand and protect the environment better. I left the camp with a new appreciation for science and technology. 1．What was special about the solar-powered tent? A．It was made of a special material.

It brings good luck, happiness, and is believed to keep away bad spirits. The dance is done by two people who act like a lion, moving to the sound of drums and cymbals. Usually, men have been the main performers, but now women are also becoming well-known in this art. ②Male lion dancers are known for their strength and quick movements. The dance needs a lot of energy, with jumps, kicks, and balancing on high poles (柱子). Men often focus on these strong and fast actions, showing their physical power. The costumes are heavy, and the dancers need to work together well and have a lot of energy to make the lion look real. For many years, men have been the main performers, keeping this tradition alive. ③Female lion dancers, on the other hand, bring a different style to the dance. They show strength and skills but also add more smooth and graceful movements. Recently, a video of two female lion dancers doing a “drunken lion (醉酒的)” dance became very popular online. In this dance, two girls acted like a lion that had too much to drink, mixing funny and artistic moves. They practice hard to stumble and sway (摇摇欲坠) but still stay balanced and move together. This video showed how talented female lion dancers are and changed the idea that only men can do lion dancing. ④The role of men and women in lion dancing is changing. While men have been the main performers for a long time, women are now getting more recognition. This change shows how society is starting to see traditional roles differently. No matter if the dancer is male or female, lion dancing remains an important and exciting part of Chinese culture, enjoyed by everyone. 1．Why is lion dancing important in Chinese culture?

Different cultures follow their own special customs when a child’s baby teeth fall out. ②After a child loses his baby tooth in Greece, he makes a wish for a strong and healthy adult tooth while throwing his broken baby tooth onto the roof (屋顶). He tries to throw the tooth as straight as possible, hoping that a straight strong tooth will grow in its place. Children in China and Singapore also follow the same practice. ③But this isn’t the only way the fallen tooth is treated around the world. In parts of Africa, children throw lost upper (上面的) teeth on the roof and bury (埋) lost lower teeth in the ground. But in East Asia, it’s the opposite: lower teeth go on the roof and upper teeth are buried or hidden under the bed. In some mid-eastern countries such as Iraq and Egypt, kids are encouraged to throw their teeth up towards the sky. ④But do you know one of the most common ways to deal with it? Kids give the tooth to a mouse to make the adult tooth as strong as the mouse’s. They usually make a wish or sing a song during the ceremony. This happens in many places like Mexico, Russia, and New Zealand. ⑤In fact, kids in Argentina leave their tooth in a glass for a magical mouse who will bring a treasure while they sleep. In France and Switzerland, there’s a La Petit Souris (little mouse) that takes the thrown-away baby teeth for money or candy. In South Africa, the tooth is left in a slipper for the “tooth mouse”, who leaves a gift behind. How interesting it is! ⑥This is not all. In some places, the tooth is often kept at home and in some others, it is just thrown away. In modern times, parents are also storing their children’s baby teeth to keep stem cells (干细胞) for some medical research later in life. 1．To draw readers’ attention, the writer started the passage by ________. A．listing the facts. B．asking a question C．giving an example D．showing a reason 2．What are Chinese kids supposed to do with their fallen teeth? A．Hide them under the bed. B．Throw them into the air.

Have you ever thought about why some people stay happy and solve these problems easily, while others feel sad all the time? The reason is positive thinking. Positive thinking is good for our health. Studies show that happy people are usually healthier. When we think positively, our bodies make things that can keep us away from illness. For example, happy patients often recover faster. Also, positive people like to exercise and eat healthy food, so they stay healthy. Positive thinking is good for our minds, too. Positive people see problems as chances to grow. When they face problems, they try to find ways to solve them. This helps them feel less stressed. For example, if a student fails a test, a positive student will find out what went wrong and study harder. A negative student may just feel bad and give up. Positive thinking can also make our friendships better. Happy people are fun to be with. Their good feelings make others happy. They often help and encourage friends, and friends love them more. We need to practice because it’s not easy to think positively. We can start by watching our thoughts. When we have negative thoughts, we should tell ourselves positive things. For example, don’t say “I can’t do it.” Say “I’ll do my best.” All in all, positive thinking can improve our lives. Let’s try to think positively and live better. 1．What does the underlined word “recover” mean in Paragraph 2? A．Hide carefully. B．Become better. C．Change quickly. D．Cover again. 2．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE about positive people? A．They are more likely to get sick. B．They always see problems as bad things. C．They seldom help their friends. D．They often have more enjoyable talks with others. 3．How does the writer support his idea in Paragraph 3? A．By asking questions. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving examples. D．By telling stories. 4．What is the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5．What is the best title of the passage? A．How problems come about in daily life. B．The differences between positive and negative thinking. C．The good points and ways of positive thinking. D．Why some people are more popular than others. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．C 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了积极思维对健康和人际关系的益处，并提出了培养积极思维的方法。 1．词义猜测题。根据“When we think positively, our bodies make things that can keep us away from illness. For example, happy patients often recover faster.”可知，当我们积极思考时，我们的身体会产生一些物质，使我们远离疾病。由此推测快乐的人病好得快。“recover”意为“变好”。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“Happy people are fun to be with. Their good feelings make others happy.”可知，快乐的人令人愉悦，他们的积极情绪能传递快乐，由此可知他们经常与他人进行更愉快的交谈。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“For example, if a student fails a test, a positive student will find out what went wrong and study harder. A negative student may just feel bad and give up.”可知，第三段通过举例（学生考试失败时的不同应对方式）来说明积极思维带来的益处。故选C。 4．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段提出话题，第二、三段论述积极思维的不同好处，第四段总结强调方法和意义，呈现“总—分—总”的结构，对应选项A的图示。故选A。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文主要探讨了积极思维对健康和人际关系的益处，并提出了培养积极思维的方法。选项C“积极思维的好处与方法”最适合作为本文的标题。故选C。 （七） （2025·湖北襄阳·模拟预测）What are glaciers (冰川)? You can imagine them as hard ice and snow moving slowly on land. The United Nations (UN) says there are about 200,000 glaciers in the world, covering 10 percent of the land. They hold 70 percent of Earth’s fresh water, just like our huge “ice libraries”—store fresh water, support animals and plants, and provide water for rivers. Without them, many places would be short of water, cities near coasts could be under water, and animals might lose their homes. Sadly, glaciers are melting (融化) faster than ever because of climate (气候) change, pollution, rising temperatures and human activities. Glaciers are in great danger, so the UN has decided that 2025 is the year to protect glaciers. China has taken important steps to protect glaciers. Chinese scientists have invented special blankets (毯子) which can stop glaciers from getting too hot from the sun. They cover a 500-square-meter area with blankets made of geotextiles (土工织物) at Dagu Glacier in Sichuan. And very thin, high-tech blankets are used on Glacier No.1 in Xinjiang. They also make snow to help glaciers stay cold and melt more slowly. In April and May, 2023, scientists did this in the Bailanghe Glacier. It’s very important to watch glaciers carefully.

The droughts caused serious problems, including shortages of food and energy, and problems with transportation. Droughts aren’t new, but the earth’s rising temperatures because of global warming are making them much harder to avoid. The drought in the Horn of Africa may be the most serious. For several years, the area has had very little rain during the rainy seasons. The area suffered (遭受) from its worst drought in 40 years. The dry conditions have killed millions of farm animals and damaged the crops. The United Nations warned that as many as 22 million people in the area were in danger of getting hungry. Almost two-thirds of Europe suffered from what might be the worst drought in 500 years. With temperatures reaching 40℃ and higher, many crops have died. The low water levels cut the amount of hydroelectric (水力发电的) power that could be produced. Some rivers were so low that the heavy boats that carried coal couldn’t travel on them. In the US, the two largest reservoirs (水库), Lake Mead and Lake Powell are fed by the Colorado River. But they were at low levels because of the drought. The reservoirs are used to create hydroelectric energy. That could end if water levels drop farther. China faced similar problems. Some areas suffered from a terrible drought, with temperatures as high as 45℃. The drought dried up much of the water in the Yangtze River. That cut the amount of energy produced by the world’s largest dam (大坝) by about 40%. There are no easy ways of dealing with any of these droughts. Governments and people need to carefully manage water resources as much as possible. 1．What problems did the droughts cause according to the first paragraph? a. Lower costs of living.  b. The rise in coal prices. c. Shortages of food and energy.  d. Problems with transportation. A．a & b. B．a & c. C．c & d. D．b & d. 2．What does the underlined word “damaged” probably mean? A．Harmed. B．Controlled. C．Collected. D．Dried. 3．Which is the right structure of the passage? (① = paragraph 1  ②= paragraph 2…) A．①/②③④/⑤/⑥ B．①/②/③④⑤/⑥ C．①/②③④⑤⑥ D．①/②③④⑤/⑥ 4．What is the writer’s purpose of writing the text? A．To develop students’ interest in geography. B．To explain why and how the droughts happened. C．To introduced some important countries with droughts. D．To show problems the droughts have caused around the world. 5．What can we learn from the passage? A．The drought in Europe was the worst all over the world. B．The droughts are hard to avoid because of global warming. C．China didn’t suffer from high temperatures above 40℃. D．Lake Mead and Lake Powell couldn’t produce hydroelectric energy. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．D 5．B 【解析】本文主要介绍了全球各地干旱所导致的问题。 1．细节理解题。根据“The droughts caused serious problems, including shortages of food and energy, and problems with transportation.”可知干旱导致了食物、能源短缺以及交通问题。故选C。 2．词义猜测题。根据“The dry conditions have killed millions of farm animals and damaged the crops. The United Nations warned that as many as 22 million people in the area were in danger of getting hungry.”可知该地区有多达2200万人面临饥饿的危险，可见干旱导致了农作物的损害，故划线部分意为“损害”，和选项A意义相近。故选A。 3．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引出介绍全球干旱问题及其影响；第二至五段分别介绍了非洲之角、欧洲、美国和中国的干旱情况；第六段总结，提出应对干旱的建议。选项D符合文章结构。故选D。 4．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了全球各地干旱所导致的问题。故选D。 5．细节理解题。根据“The earth’s rising temperatures because of global warming are making them much harder to avoid.”可知由于全球变暖，干旱更难避免。故选B。 （九） （2025·湖北省直辖县级单位·模拟预测）Have you ever thought about what’s more important, looking fashionable or feeling comfortable? You might have noticed many people choosing style over comfort and some even go to extremes (极端)to follow fashion. But we should remember: being fashionable isn’t everything. It’s more important to be healthy. Some people believe that they need to be a certain size to look good. So, they start extreme diets (日常饮食) that are not good for their health. They might not eat meals or eat too little, which can make them feel sick. Is it a healthy way to live? Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels. They might think high heels make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably, and it can increase risks of falls. Some even wear tight (紧的) clothes that influence blood circulation (循环) making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health? Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often or at very high temperatures can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money? So, let’s rethink what’s really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being? Clothes or hairstyles don’t tell us anything about a person’s character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let’s eat properly and exercise regularly. Remember, your worth is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person. 1．Why do some people go on extreme diets according to the passage? A．Because the diets are healthy. B．Because they want to save money. C．Because they want to save time. D．Because they just want to look good. 2．How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 4? A．By comparing facts.

Well, what if it could? Not by making it or spending it, but by giving it away. ②In an experiment (实验) in Switzerland, researchers gave each of the 50 volunteers £20 every week for four weeks. Half of the volunteers were asked to spend the money on themselves and make a note of how they spent the money. But the researchers asked the other half to spend the money on another person. ③After that, all 50 volunteers did the same task in a lab. They were asked to think of a person who they would like to give money to. Then they had to decide how much money, from £3 to £20, they wanted to give away. While the volunteers thought about this, the researchers studied their brain activity using an MRI machine. ④The results showed two things. First, the 25 volunteers who gave their money away during the four weeks were more generous (慷慨的) and chose to give more money away in the lab task. Second, those same people were much happier than the people who once spent the money on themselves. ⑤In the experiment, the volunteers were asked to give money away. But would you like to do this in your daily life? Can you really make yourself happy by giving? The answer is yes, but remember to start small. You can start by giving £1 to a homeless person. Gradually, you can try to change your habits so that you can save money to give away. For example, stop buying lunch every day and take a packed lunch to work or school. You can then save some money and give it to people in need. ⑥Learning to give money away is all about changing the way you behave. It’s about living with less and being more generous. And this will make you happy. 1．What was the difference between the two groups of volunteers in the experiment? A．One group received £20, while the other got nothing. B．One group wrote diaries, the other didn’t record anything. C．One group kept the money, the other returned it to researchers. D．One group spent money on themselves, the other on people in need. 2．What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A．Being a volunteer. B．Changing your habits. C．Giving money away. D．Doing the experiment. 3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．20 volunteers took part in the research. B．The experiment took place in Singapore. C．To study volunteers’ brain activity, the researchers used an MRI machine. D．Learning to give money away is not about changing the way we behave. 4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5．What is the best title for this passage? A．Giving Money to Others Brings Happiness. B．The Best Ways to Spend Your Money. C．Why We Should Never Give Away Money. D．How Scientists Study Human Brains. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．B 5．A 【解析】本文介绍了通过实验发现把钱花在别人身上比花在自己身上更能带来快乐的研究结果。 1．细节理解题。根据“Half of the volunteers were asked to spend the money on themselves…asked the other half to spend the money on another person”可知两组志愿者的区别是一组把钱花在自己身上，另一组把钱花在别人身上，故选D。 2．词义猜测题。根据第五段上下文“the volunteers were asked to give money away”和“Can you really make yourself happy by giving”可知“this”指的是“把钱给别人”的行为，故选C。 3．细节判断题。根据“the researchers studied their brain activity using an MRI machine”可知研究人员使用MRI机器研究志愿者的大脑活动，故选C。 4．篇章结构题。文章结构为：①引出主题→②③④分别是实验设计、实验过程和实验结果→⑤⑥现实应用及总结，故选B。 5．最佳标题题。全文围绕“把钱给别人能带来快乐”展开，A项“给他人金钱带来快乐”最契合主旨。故选A。 （十一） （2025·湖北·三模）Are you a fan of Chinese animated (动画的) cartoon?

It’s like a big team where everyone has a job. Small changes can cause big problems. Here are some real - life stories about the balance of nature. Not many years ago, some farmers were worried because hawks (鹰) took many of their chickens, so the farmers killed many hawks. They no longer had to worry about their chickens. But then they had new worries. Mice ate the farmers’ food. How did this happen? Hawks ate not only chickens but also mice. They ate more mice than chickens. But the farmers did not know this. When they killed many hawks, they changed the balance of nature. Changing the balance is bad for nature. Sometimes when people move into a new place, they often cut down many plants. Some of these plants are food for animals. If the animals cannot find food to eat, they will die or have to leave the place. Here is another example. In a place of the United States, the giraffes there ate a kind of rose. The lions there ate the giraffes. The number of giraffes, lions and wild roses did not change much if people kept things as they were. But people killed many lions to protect the giraffes. Soon there were so many giraffes that they ate up all the roses. Then the giraffes began to eat leaves of young trees. These trees were important to people. So people thought of ways to protect trees. Now the giraffes had nothing to eat, and many of them died. This was another lesson from nature. Nature is like a huge family where everything depends on each other. We should take good care of nature and keep it balanced. If we do, everything in nature can live happily together! 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By giving a fact. B．By asking a question. C．By giving an opinion. D．By telling a life story. 2．What does the underlined word they in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．The hawks. B．The mice. C．The chickens.

You may have already played many of them before. Now, let’s take a look at three of them. Luban Lock Luban Lock was first created by Chinese carpenter Lu Ban about 2,000 years ago. It is said that Lu Ban used six wooden pieces to make a toy that looks like a lock for his son. The lock has a lot to do with solid geometry (立体几何). It’s hard to separate the six pieces. However, it is easier to unlock a Luban Lock than to put it back together. Now, there are Luban Locks made up of nine or more pieces. Huarong Pass (华容道) Huarong Pass is a traditional Chinese block - moving puzzle. Every block is named after a character in the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, like Cao Cao, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun. To succeed in the game, players have to move the blocks to get “Cao Cao” out. This is a test of one’s math knowledge, for example the knowledge of geometric area (几何面积). According to the Chinese Puzzle website, it takes at least 81 steps to set “Cao Cao” free. Tangram (七巧板) Tangram is a classic Chinese puzzle made of seven flat shapes. These pieces can form a square when they are put together. By rearranging (重新排列) them, you can create thousands of different pictures, like animals or objects. This puzzle helps improve geometry (几何知识) skills and creativity. It’s fun to see how many shapes you can make! 1．Why did Lu Ban make Luban Lock? A．To practice his skills. B．To help his son have fun. C．To study solid geometry. D．To lock something important. 2．What’s the goal of playing the game Huarong Pass? A．To set “Cao Cao” free. B．To solve different puzzles. C．To put all the blocks in a special order. D．To know all the characters of the novel. 3．Which of the following is the correct order according to the passage? ①Luban Lock    ②Huarong Pass    ③Tangram a.     b.     c. A．①-b ②-a ③-c B．①-c ②-a ③-b C．①-a ②-b ③-c D．①-c ②-b ③-a 4．What do Luban Lock, Huarong Pass and Tangram have in common? A．They were both invented by Lu Ban. B．They all have something to do with math. C．They’re games played by at least two players. D．The idea of them came from Chinese novels. 5．Which unit may this text come from?

Why do some people love scary things? A group of scientists at the University of Pittsburgh in the US found that fear can sometimes be good for us. It can help us become more confident and make us feel happier and less stressed. It can also help build closer ties. In their study, 262 volunteers went into a house with scary things. They stayed there for 35 minutes and came across many scary things. They reported how they were feeling. Being scared in a safe place could be a good way to build up our confidence, explained Margee Kerr, one of the study’s scientist. It made the volunteers feel confident that they could manage a scary situation in real life. It helped them deal with the fears we all have. What’s more, the results showed that most of the volunteers felt happier and less stressed after the experience. This has to do with dopamine (多巴胺), something that the brain produces. It makes people feel excited, and this effect can last even after the danger has passed, according to the scientists. More than that, fear helps create strong social connections. In scary situations, people are more likely to feel unsure about the future. As a result, they stick together and depend more on each other for support. Scientists call this a “tend-and-befriend system”. It means in scary situations, people help their friends and make new ones, which makes them feel better and more protected. A good example of this is soldiers who fight side by side in war. 1．People love scary things because fear can make them ________. ① solve problems in real life    ② feel happier and less stressed ③ communicate more with friends    ④ more confident and build closer ties A．①② B．①③ C．②④ D．③④ 2．How does the writer start Paragraph 2?

D．Dopamine. 4．Which is the right structure of the passage? (①= Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph2, …) A． B． C． D． 5．What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing the passage? A．To encourage people to watch scary movies. B．To introduce different ways to deal with fear. C．To explain something that the brain produces.
