With medical knowledge and skills today, two-thirds of the world’s 42 million blind people should not have to suffer (受苦). Unluckily, rich countries have this knowledge, but developing countries do not. ORBIS is an international charitable (慈善的) organization. Its goal is to help fight blindness all over the world.

ORBIS is always trying to keep a closer relation among countries. ORBIS helps those developing countries by providing sight-saving training. It has taught over 35,000 doctors and nurses. They continue to treat thousands of blind people every year. They have travelled around the earth 3 times, visited 76 countries and treated over 20,000 blind people. They need your help to continue their work and free people from blindness. For just $ 38, you can help one person see. For $ 380, you can bring sight to 10 people. $ 1,300 helps train a doctor new skills; and for $ 13,000 you can provide a training program for a group of doctors who can make thousands of blind people see again.

She had already climbed La Rambla, Spain and Biografie, France in 2017. She was only 19 when she became the first woman to climb La Rambla, which is one of the hardest rock faces in the world to climb. It seems that this young woman from Boulder, Colorado was certain to become a record-breaking climber. She comes from a family of climbers, so that helps! Her grandfather was the expedition (探险队) leader on a new way to the top of Mount Everest in 1983 and her father has climbed many of the rock walls of Yosemite Valley, California. But that’s not enough. Talent and training play an important part. Margo was a talented gymnast (体操运动员) and at the age of six, she was training for an Olympic gold medal. Unluckily, she had to give up gymnastics because of a serious accident, but by the age of ten, she had joined Team ABC, a well-known training group for young climbers in Texas. You won’t be surprised to hear that Margo is very serious about her sport. She always has new goals she wants to achieve. She organizes her training and climbs with the greatest precision. She believes that full planning before a climb is necessary for success. You can’t risk making mistakes when you’re high up on a rock face. Before she starts a climb, she chooses the best way and plans every move she’ll make on the rock face. She says it’s an amazing feeling to finish a climb that you have been imagining in your head for so long. She enjoys her climbs and loves the feel of the rock as well as the views of fantastic scenery. Reaching the top is an exciting experience. 11. Why did Margo Hayes stop doing gymnastics? A. She once got seriously hurt. B. She got tired and lost interest. C. She wanted to climb mountains. 12. What does the underlined word “that” refer to (指代) in the second paragraph? A. Her grandfather’s expedition to Mount Everest and her father’s climbs in Yosemite Valley. B. Talent and training. C. Coming from a family of climbers. 13. Which is the correct time order of the following events? ①Margo Hayes joined ABC, a training group for young climbers. ②Margo Hayes finished three of the world’s hardest climbs. ③Margo Hayes became the first woman to climb La Rambla. ④Margo Hayes trained in gymnastics for the Olympic Games. A. ③②④① B. ④①②③ C. ④①③② 14. What does the underlined word “precision” probably mean in Paragraph 3? A. Happiness. B. Kindness. C. Carefulness. 15. Which is the best title (标题) for the text? A. Margo Hayes: A Great Climber B. La Rambla: The Hardest Climb C. The Hayes: A Climbing Family 【答案】11. A 12. C 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了来自科罗拉多州博尔德的年轻女性Margo Hayes如何成为一位破纪录的攀登者的，包括她的家庭背景、早年经历以及她对攀登的认真态度和成就。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Unluckily, she had to give up gymnastics because of a serious accident”可知，Margo Hayes因为曾经受了重伤而不得不放弃体操。故选A。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“She comes from a family of climbers”可知，来自一个攀登者的家庭是有帮助的。划线词“that”指代的是前文提到的“She comes from a family of climbers”。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Margo was a talented gymnast (体操运动员) and at the age of six, she was training for an Olympic gold medal.”、“but by the age of ten, she had joined Team ABC, a well-known training group for young climbers in Texas”、“She was only 19 when she became the first woman to climb La Rambla, which is one of the hardest rock faces in the world to climb.”和“In March 2019, at the age of 21, Margo Hayes became the first woman to finish three of the world’s hardest climbs when she successfully reached the top of Papichulo in Spain.”可知，事件的时间顺序为：6岁时训练体操；10岁加入攀登训练队；19岁成为首位攀登La Rambla的女性；21岁完成三项世界最难攀登。即正确顺序为④①③②。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“She believes that full planning before a climb is necessary for success. You can’t risk making mistakes when you’re high up on a rock face.”可知，她对自己的训练和攀登都安排得极为精准。因为在攀登前做好充分的规划是成功的关键。当身处高高的岩壁之上时，不能冒险犯错。“precision”在此处意为“细致、谨慎”，与选项C意思相近。故选C。 【15题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，全文围绕Margo Hayes的攀登成就、家庭背景和训练态度展开，强调她作为杰出攀登者的身份。选项A“Margo Hayes：伟大的攀登者”最贴合主题，最适合当标题。故选A。 D Costa Rica (哥斯达黎加) is not a traditional northern country.

But my daddy can’t pay for it,” Tess replied with tears in her eyes. “How much do you have?” asked the man. “One dollar and 11 cents,” Tess answered. “Well,” smiled the man, “a dollar and 11 cents—that’s just the price of a miracle for your little brother.” He took her money and said, “Take me to your home. I want to see your brother. Maybe I have the kind of miracle you need.” The man was a famous doctor. He gave the boy the operation for free. Before long, the boy was home again and doing well. “That operation,” her mom said to her dad quietly, “was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost.” Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost...one dollar and 11 cents…and the love and faith (信心) of a little child. 46.

But her family didn’t have money to send him to hospital.”可知，Tess家庭的问题是弟弟生病且无钱医治。故填Her family didn’t have enough money to send her sick brother to the hospital. 【47题详解】 根据文章“Then she walked a long way to the pharmacy.”可知，Tess去药店寻求帮助。故填She went to the pharmacy for help. 【48题详解】 根据文章“The man was a famous doctor. He gave the boy the operation for free.”可知，这位穿着得体的男士通过免费手术帮助了Tess。故填He gave Tess’s brother the operation for free. 【49题详解】 根据文章“She knew exactly how much a miracle cost...one dollar and 11 cents…and the love and faith of a little child.”以及“The man was a famous doctor.

C In March 2019, at the age of 21, Margo Hayes became the first woman to finish three of the world’s hardest climbs when she successfully reached the top of Papichulo in Spain. She had already climbed La Rambla, Spain and Biografie, France in 2017. She was only 19 when she became the first woman to climb La Rambla, which is one of the hardest rock faces in the world to climb. It seems that this young woman from Boulder, Colorado was certain to become a record-breaking climber. She comes from a family of climbers, so that helps! Her grandfather was the expedition (探险队) leader on a new way to the top of Mount Everest in 1983 and her father has climbed many of the rock walls of Yosemite Valley, California. But that’s not enough. Talent and training play an important part. Margo was a talented gymnast (体操运动员) and at the age of six, she was training for an Olympic gold medal. Unluckily, she had to give up gymnastics because of a serious accident, but by the age of ten, she had joined Team ABC, a well-known training group for young climbers in Texas. You won’t be surprised to hear that Margo is very serious about her sport. She always has new goals she wants to achieve. She organizes her training and climbs with the greatest precision. She believes that full planning before a climb is necessary for success. You can’t risk making mistakes when you’re high up on a rock face. Before she starts a climb, she chooses the best way and plans every move she’ll make on the rock face. She says it’s an amazing feeling to finish a climb that you have been imagining in your head for so long. She enjoys her climbs and loves the feel of the rock as well as the views of fantastic scenery. Reaching the top is an exciting experience. 11. Why did Margo Hayes stop doing gymnastics? A. She once got seriously hurt. B. She got tired and lost interest. C. She wanted to climb mountains. 12. What does the underlined word “that” refer to (指代) in the second paragraph? A. Her grandfather’s expedition to Mount Everest and her father’s climbs in Yosemite Valley. B. Talent and training. C. Coming from a family of climbers. 13. Which is the correct time order of the following events? ①Margo Hayes joined ABC a training group for young climbers. ②Margo Hayes finished three of the world’s hardest climbs. ③Margo Hayes became the first woman to climb La Rambla. ④Margo Hayes trained in gymnastics for the Olympic Games. A. ③②④① B. ④①②③ C. ④①③② 14. What does the underlined word “precision” probably mean in Paragraph 3? A. Happiness. B. Kindness. C. Carefulness. 15. Which is the best title (标题) for the text? A. Margo Hayes: A Great Climber B. La Rambla: The Hardest Climb C. The Hayes: A Climbing Family D Costa Rica (哥斯达黎加) is not a traditional northern country. Here you do not have the turn of four different seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. It only has two seasons: dry season and wet season. So for tourists, when is the best time to go to Costa Rica? Most people like visiting Costa Rica in the dry season. The sun shines brightly almost every day from December to April and people won’t get wet. This allows them to visit more places during the trip. The best thing to do in Costa Rica in the dry season is to enjoy the beaches. The sunny weather allows people to enjoy the fun beach activities like swimming and surfing (冲浪). If you want quieter beaches perfect for swimming, you can visit the Gulf of Papagayo (帕帕加约海湾) and Peninsula Papagayo (帕帕加约半岛). If you want beaches perfect for surfing, go to beaches like Tamarindo (塔马林多), Playa Grande (格兰德海滩). The wet season is also great for vacation. The hotel price is not high and there are much fewer visitors around. In the wet season, Costa Rica shows its green scenery (风景). The rain from May to November helps the rainforest grow. Waterfalls get stronger as more water flows in the rivers. And, yes, you can go out and see all of this. The wet season doesn’t mean that you can’t leave your hotel. The rain usually comes in the afternoons and the mornings are often sunny and dry. So you are still able to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the rainy months of Costa Rica. So in which season would you like to visit Costa Rica? 16. Which two seasons are in the Costa Rica? A. Dry and wet. B. Spring and winter. C. Summer and autumn. 17. Why most people like visiting Costa Rica in the dry season? A. Because the sunshine is beautiful. B. Because it’s cool in the dry season. C. Because the dry weather allows people to visit more places. 18. Which places have the best surfing beaches in Costa Rica? ①Gulf of Papagayo ②Playa Grande ③Peninsula Papagayo ④Tamarindo A. ①② B. ②④ C. ③④ 19. What does the fifth paragraph mainly talk about? A. When people should visit Costa Rica. B. How Costa Rica changes in rainy months. C. Why people can visit Costa Rica in the wet season. 20. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 In the countries all over the world, people are leaving the countryside in large numbers to find jobs in the cities.
