befriending many of the students and teachers, Austin was surprised to learn how difficult it was to get books and school supplies for the children.(除了与许多学生和老师成为朋友外，奥斯汀还惊讶地发现，为孩子们买书和学习用品是多么困难。)”可知，在肯尼亚乡村为孩子们买书和学习用品很困难；由此可知，在肯尼亚乡村，孩子们缺少书籍和学习用品等教育资源。故选B。 2.D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When Austin eventually returned to...11 schools across Kenya and Tanzania.(当Austin最终回到他在南卡罗来纳州布拉夫顿的家时，他成立了国际儿童图书馆。自从创办这家慈善机构以来，奥斯汀已经成功地向肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚的11所学校运送了1000多本书。)”可知，Austin成立了国际儿童图书馆机构，自创办该机构以来，向肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚的11所学校运送了1000多本书；由此可知，Austin给肯尼亚的乡村学校运送了书籍。故选D。 3.C　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Since starting the charity, Austin has managed to ship more than 1，000 books to 11 schools across Kenya and Tanzania.(自从创办这家慈善机构以来，奥斯汀已经成功地向肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚的11所学校运送了1000多本书。)”可知，Austin向肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚的11所学校运送了1000本书，结合第四段中的“In the future, the philanthropist (慈善家) hopes to start sending donations to South America as well.(在未来，这位慈善家希望也开始向南美洲捐赠。)”可知，在未来，Austin希望开始向南美洲捐赠，由此可推断，Austin热衷于慈善事业，是一位慈善热衷者。故选C。 4.D　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“However, every worthwhile project will have problems and barriers...if you focus on the aim and solve the problems as they arise, most anything is possible.(然而，每一个有价值的项目都会遇到问题和障碍。如果你专注于问题，你永远不会开始。相反，如果你专注于目标，并在问题出现时解决问题，那么几乎任何事情都是可能的。)”可知，Austin认为每件有价值的项目都会遇到问题和困难，但是只要专注于目标，在问题出现时解决问题，那么几乎任何事情都是可能的，由此可知，在Austin的故事中我们学到的是：世上无难事，只怕有心人。故选D。 Ⅱ.【语篇解读】　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要描述了作为母亲的作者送孩子去上高中的心理活动以及感受。 1.B　考查副词词义辨析。句意：他的铅笔盒里装满了新削过的铅笔。quickly快速地；freshly精神饱满地，新地；obviously显然地；extremely非常。根据后文“sharpened pencils”以及“My baby was off to high

Ⅰ.阅读理解 (2024·广东深圳高二期中)When Roy Austin went on his first wildlife trip back in 2018, his only goal for the leisurely vacation was to catch sight of some African wildlife in its natural habitat­but he ended up finding something much more meaningful. He was most captivated (迷住) by the people he met in rural Kenya­particularly at the Amboseli Primary and Secondary School in Amboseli National Park. In addition to befriending many of the students and teachers, Austin was surprised to learn how difficult it was to get books and school supplies for the children. “In rural Kenya, the government does not build school buildings. You either build it yourself or raise money to have it built，” says Austin. “A teacher was asked if they had a library. She replied, ‘No, but we would love to have a library.’ That stuck in my mind.” When Austin eventually returned to his home in Bluffton, South Carolina, he launched Libraries for Kids International. Since starting the charity, Austin has managed to ship more than 1，000 books to 11 schools across Kenya and Tanzania. He sends the books through the post office rather than FedEx to keep the shipping costs down. As it continues to collect books and donations for additional shipments, Austin says that the charity is now helping to move a shipping container of 22，000 books from Atlanta to Kenya. In the future, the philanthropist (慈善家) hopes to start sending donations to South America as well. “Many people told me that it can't be done. It's too expensive to ship books, and they will disappear going through customs，” Austin says. “However, every worthwhile project will have problems and barriers. If you focus on the problems, you will never start. On the contrary, if you focus on the aim and solve the problems as they arise, most anything is possible.” 1.What problem does Austin find in rural Kenya? A.Education depends on charity. B.Students lack education resources. C.Books get lost going through customs. D.Families can't afford the kids' schooling. 2.What does Austin do for the people in rural Kenya? A.He teaches at school. B.He funds a library for them. C.He reduces the shipping costs. D.He ships books to schools. 3.Which of the following best describes Austin? A.A crazy adventurer. B.A devoted educator. C.An enthusiastic charitarian. D.A popular book­seller. 4.What can we learn from Austin's story? A.Well begun, half done. B.Success belongs to the persevering. C.Every bit of effort makes a big difference. D.Nothing is difficult to a determined mind.
