She could hear the girls arguing in the living room. It was the third time this week that the sisters had argued. “Come to the kitchen, young ladies,” Mom firmly (坚定地) said to Maria and Felicia a few minutes later. Maria walked into the kitchen and shouted, “I can’t stand living with Felicia another minute!” While Felicia was on her way, Mom put two chairs opposite each other, but very close together. “Maria, you sit here and Felicia, you sit there.” The girls sat face to face, with their knees almost touching. “Now you look each other in the eye for five minutes,” Mom ordered. At first, the girls moved their bodies from side to side. Mom said firmly, “You must look at each other for five minutes. If you don’t make eye contact for one minute, there would be another minute sitting in the chairs.” They both wanted to finish this quickly, so they had to sit there and look at each other. Felicia looked at Maria’s pouting (噘嘴) face while Maria looked at Felicia’s angry face. They each thought the other one looked funny. Soon Maria couldn’t stand it any longer and began laughing and so did Felicia. Mom smiled and said, “Okay, girls, you can go now.” 1．Which is the right picture to show the way the girls sat? A． B． C． D． 2．What is the right order of the following sentences? a. Maria and Felicia looked at each other. b. Maria argued with Felicia. c. Both Maria and Felicia laughed. d. Mom asked Maria and Felicia to sit face to face. A．b-d-c-a B．d-b-a-c C．b-d-a-c D．b-a-d-c 3．The underlined word “contact” means _________ in Chinese. A．争吵 B．讨论 C．面试 D．交流 4．Which of the following is TRUE? A．Mom solved the girls’ problem wisely. B．The kitchen is a good place to stop an argument. C．The girls were under pressure from Mom to make it up (和好). D．Maria had quite a good relationship with Felicia recently. Sometimes, families can be hard. They argue a lot. People get upset. Sometimes they stop talking. Our family has had lots of ups and downs. I’d say arguments often happen in our family, too. I have an older brother and an older sister. I’m the baby boy in the family. We grew up in a quite small house and often didn’t have a lot of money. My mom and dad argued pretty much, just about anything. My brother and sister argued. And I used to argue, too. But as I got older, I always chose to be the mediator (调停者). I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace. “Dad, you shouldn’t have said that to Mom, and Mom, try to see it this way.” “Come on guys, we all love each other. It’s just been a bad day.” I’d say it often worked. I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don’t go in your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn’t done. The key is to try and understand. Of course, sometimes arguments do need to happen. If something is wrong, it needs to be solved and sometimes, we get angry about it. But as long as we can look at things with an attitude of care and responsibility (责任), we can weather the storm and help each other out. 1．What do we know about the writer’s family? A．Two of the kids in the family are girls. B．The writer is the youngest in the family. C．The writer never argues with his parents. D．The parents get along well with each other. 2．As a mediator, what did the writer often do? A．He started a conversation angrily. B．He did nothing to help but watch. C．He helped one side to fight the other. D．He tried to make an agreement with each other. 3．What does the underlined part mean? A．We can ask somebody for help when in trouble. B．We can tell exactly what the weather will be like. C．We can deal with a difficult situation successfully. D．We can learn how to keep cool during a storm. 4．What did the writer learn from his family? A．A family shouldn’t share feelings with each other. B．A family should understand and care for each other. C．Arguing is always bad and should never happen. D．Knowledge is useless in communication. People are so busy these days that many people have no time to cook. This becomes a problem, because most families love home cooking. The food tastes good and warm, and a family meal brings everyone together. In some families, meals are often the only time everyone sees one another at the same time. Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child’s sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message, too. The message says, “I love you.” There is also something about the smell of home cooking. The smell of home cooking make people of all ages happy. It makes most of us feel good and loved—even if we are the ones doing the cooking. Next time you smell a cake making, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood (心情). 1．Fewer people cook now because ________.

Maybe you like to play with your brothers and sisters. Maybe you enjoy staying with your mum and dad. Maybe you have a pet you like to play with.

Maybe you like to have a quiet place to read a book or to think about your day. Dinnertime can also be a special time at home. Families sit around the table to eat the food that Mum or Dad has prepared. It’s a time to share interesting stories about your day. ▲ ? There are a lot of things to do to make home a special place. You can do the housework like cleaning, cooking, and yardwork in our house. When families work together to do housework, it makes the housework easier and more fun for everyone.

He cooks dinner for all the family: Mum, Dad, younger brother Joe and elder sister Emma. “I think it’s important for teenagers to learn how to cook. Maths and English are important, of course, but they also need other skills to help them in today’s world. First I taught Tom how to cook easy meals. Then he started using recipes in books,” Tom’s mother said. “I love cooking and I think I’m really good at it. None of my friends cook. I don’t know why. It isn’t difficult and it’s great fun!” Tom said. “I think it is important for us children to learn how to do chores and help our parents with housework. It’s not enough to just get good grades at school.” In the past, Tom didn’t help out at home and his mum wasn’t very happy with him.

I didn’t like it. The rooms felt cold. But we brought one thing from our old home—Grandma’s clock. It was brown, full of scratches (划痕), and made a loud “tick-tock” sound. Grandma once said, “This clock isn’t just for time. It holds our family’s stories.” Every scratch had a memory. The deepest scratch? My dad made it when he was a boy. He tried to fix the clock with a metal stick (铁棍). The numbers at the bottom (底部)? My mom spilled (溢出) hot soup there on the day I was born. One cold night, the clock stopped. The “tick-tock” sound I always heard was gone. I saw Dad sitting quietly in front of it. His eyes were wet. “Grandma died ten years ago today,” he said softly. Then I realized the clock wasn’t just wood and glass. It was Dad’s childhood, mom’s happy days, and all our time together. We tried to fix it as a family. Mom held the tools, Dad opened the clock, and I cleaned the dirty glass. Suddenly, Dad laughed. “Look! Your baby tooth is here!” He pointed at a small white thing inside the clock. We laughed until tears came when we looked at it. That night, the clock started working again. Its “tick-tock” sounded even louder. Now, when friends visit, they say, “Your home feels so warm!” They don’t see new things. They hear the clock’s sound, like a heartbeat (心跳) that ties our past to now. Home isn’t about perfect walls or quiet rooms. It’s about keeping what you love—even if it’s an old clock that tells your family’s story. 1．What caused the deepest scratch on the clock? A．Mom spilled hot soup. B．The baby tooth fell inside. C．Grandma cleaned it too hard. D．Dad tried to fix it with a metal stick. 2．Put the following information into the correct order according to the passage. ①Dad cried    ②The clock broke.    ③The family found a baby tooth. ④The clock’s sound became louder.    ⑤The family fixed the clock together. A．①②⑤③④ B．②①⑤③④ C．⑤①②③④ D．②①④③⑤ 3．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．The clock. B．The dirty glass. C．The tool. D．The baby tooth. 4．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Fixing an Old Family Clock B．Moving to a Cold New House C．A Clock Full of Family Stories D．Why We Should Keep Old Things Our parents are important people in our life. They are our first teachers in our life. They love us and help us all the time. But do you want to get on well with them? Here are some ways to help you to be happy with your parents. Have fun together How much time do you spend just enjoying being with each other? Ask your parents to play with you. Go outside together, try some sports or go to the movies. Be kind Little things may bring a lot to your parents. Make a meal for them by yourself and that makes your parents happy. Ask for help When you are in trouble or come across some sad things, you can ask your parents for help and advice. They will be happy to listen to you and help you. Have a try You don’t have to be the best, but you need to have a try. They will be happy to see you have the courage to make your dream come true. It lets them know they’re doing a good job in helping you grow up. 1．Why are our parents important persons for us? A．They teach us first in class. B．They love us sometimes.

A．How to Love and Teach Kids B．How to Talk with Your Parents C．How to Keep Happy with Your Parents D．How to Try to Be the Best of Yourself We have a saying that “filial piety (孝敬) is the most important of all virtues (美德).” This shows how important it is for Chinese people to respect and take care of their parents. In China, filial piety has been a key value for thousands of years, shaping how families live and how society works. Our parents do so much for us. They feed us, take care of us, and teach us right from wrong. It’s only natural that we should feel grateful and want to repay them for their love and care. For teenagers, filial piety means trying to make parents happy, whether it’s through small actions or bigger efforts. In China, students often express filial piety in meaningful ways. For example, they help wash their parents’ feet, cook meals for them, or write heartfelt thank-you cards. These small gestures may seem simple, but they carry deep love and thankfulness. By doing these things, we make our relationship with our parents closer, which is good for both our families and ourselves. Confucius (孔子), the great Chinese philosopher, believed that filial piety goes beyond just loving your parents. He taught that if everyone is good to their parents, they will also be kind and respectful to others. This kindness can stop fights and bring peace to society. Then we could bring peace to the world. I think this is a brilliant idea. It means that filial piety is not only about loving your parents, but about loving everyone! To me, filial piety is something we should practise for our whole lives. We can show it by being there for our parents when they feel lonely, helping them with housework, or giving money when needed. These actions show true kindness and love. Let’s remember that being good to our parents is not just a duty—it’s also the foundation of better society. 1．What does filial piety mean for teenagers according to the article? A．Fighting with their parents. B．Trying to make their parents happy. C．Asking their parents for everything. D．Doing everything for parents. 2．What do Chinese students usually do to show filial piety? A．Cook for their parents. B．Ask parents to wash their feet. C．Finish their homework by themselves. D．Bring peace to parents. 3．What did Confucius believe? A．We couldn’t bring peace to the world. B．We should only be good to our parents. C．We should love our parents and other people. D．We could argue with others kindly. 4．What does the underlined word “brilliant” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Foolish. B．Great. C．Ordinary. D．Strange. 5．What’s the main idea of this passage? A．Confucius was a great teacher. B．Students should help parents do housework. C．Filial piety is the most important virtues. D．Human life is a lifelong journey. As a means of cheering up their neighbors in lockdown (封锁), an English family from Wellington colored every brick (砖) of their home with crayons (蜡笔) to make a “rainbow house”. 26-year-old mother Fern Taylor started the work with her daughters, Arabella and Matilda. Her husband (丈夫), Marco DeFazio, then used a ladder (梯子) to finish the work. “We got the idea from a post online,” said Fern. “They did half the house, but Marco said we couldn’t stop there. He got the ladder out and did the rest.” The family used big sticks of crayons, and it took them about six hours. They started with about 40 sticks. The girls really enjoyed it. Matilda is two. She didn’t quite understand, but she did help a bit. Arabella is four, and she was a good helper. She helped for half an hour. Then the girls sat and played, and watched their mom and dad doing the work. “Many people stopped by our house and smiled. They took photos. And they really cheered up. It’s so sweet,” she said. “People would slow down when they drive past. We saw an ambulance (救护车). They just stopped and said they loved it.” This is one of the many wonderful stories that are coming out of the COVID-19 news. 1．The family colored their house to ______.

The fact is, I’m not happy with some of our family rules. After all, I’m not a child anymore. I’m 14. I’m a teenager now. Anyway, I don’t know how to “talk to” you, so please “hear me out”. First, can I spend more time with my friends on Saturday night? Every time we decide to watch a two-hour movie after six o’clock, I have to explain to you that I won’t make it home on time if I join them. They often call me a “killjoy (使人扫兴的人)”, and I am so embarrassed (尴尬的). So, can I stay out until 10 p.m. on Saturday? Second, can I have more allowance (零用钱)? I plan to take tennis lessons this summer, but all my money has gone to snacks, drinks, books, music, and video games. I think I can take on more chores around the house: I can cook, clean the toilet, and even look after my baby brother. If I’m allowed to have more allowance, I promise not to spend any on sweets or too expensive toys. Last but not least, could you please not use the word GROUND (罚不准出门) in front of my friends? I don’t mind being grounded for a week or a month, just no this word when my friends are with us. It hurts my feelings. Love, Johnny 1．The material (材料) is ________.

Every member plays an important role in making their home comfortable and happy. Teng Fei’s father, who works as a cook, prepares delicious meals for the family every evening. His mother, a teacher, keeps the house tidy and organizes weekly family meetings where everyone can share their thoughts. Teng Fei, a hard-working eighth grader, always washes dishes after dinner and keeps his study area clean. Even his playful 10-year-old sister Mei contributes (贡献) by feeding their pet dog Max and watering the indoor plants. What makes their family truly special is how they balance work and fun. Weekdays are busy with school and jobs, but weekends are for a happy time together. They might visit the local library, have friendly badminton matches at the park, or try out new kinds of food in their small but warm kitchen. Their favourite tradition is “Family Fun Night” every Saturday. Last week, Mei chose a very interesting karaoke session where they all sang terribly but laughed until their stomachs hurt. The week before, Teng Fei taught everyone how to make origami (折纸) animals. Teng Fei recently wrote in his diary: “Our home isn’t measured by its size or fancy furniture, but by how we care for each other. When Mom stays up late helping me with homework, when Dad surprises us with pancakes on Sunday mornings, or when Mei draws silly pictures to cheer me up—these moments make our house a home.” His words perfectly show the spirit of their family—where everyday actions, no matter how small, weave together to create something truly precious (珍贵的). 1．What special responsibility does Teng Fei’s mother have at home?

She could hear the girls arguing in the living room. It was the third time this week that the sisters had argued. “Come to the kitchen, young ladies,” Mom firmly (坚定地) said to Maria and Felicia a few minutes later. Maria walked into the kitchen and shouted, “I can’t stand living with Felicia another minute!” While Felicia was on her way, Mom put two chairs opposite each other, but very close together. “Maria, you sit here and Felicia, you sit there.” The girls sat face to face, with their knees almost touching. “Now you look each other in the eye for five minutes,” Mom ordered. At first, the girls moved their bodies from side to side. Mom said firmly, “You must look at each other for five minutes. If you don’t make eye contact for one minute, there would be another minute sitting in the chairs.” They both wanted to finish this quickly, so they had to sit there and look at each other. Felicia looked at Maria’s pouting (噘嘴) face while Maria looked at Felicia’s angry face. They each thought the other one looked funny. Soon Maria couldn’t stand it any longer and began laughing and so did Felicia. Mom smiled and said, “Okay, girls, you can go now.” 1．Which is the right picture to show the way the girls sat?

C．The girls were under pressure from Mom to make it up (和好). D．Maria had quite a good relationship with Felicia recently. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了妈妈通过让两个争吵的女儿面对面坐着对视五分钟的方式，巧妙地化解了她们之间的矛盾，让她们重新开心起来。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第五段“The girls sat face to face, with their knees almost touching.”可知，两个女孩面对面坐着，膝盖几乎碰到一起，A选项的图片符合这一描述。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“She could hear the girls arguing in the living room.”可知，先是Maria和Felicia争吵，即b；根据文章第五段“‘Maria, you sit here and Felicia, you sit there. ’”可知，然后妈妈让她们面对面坐着，即d；根据文章第五段“Now you look each other in the eye for five minutes”可知，接着她们看着对方，即a；根据文章第八段“Soon Maria couldn’t stand it any longer and began laughing and so did Felicia.”可知，最后她们都笑了，即c。所以正确的顺序是b-d-a-c。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据文章第五段“Now you look each other in the eye for five minutes”以及第六段“At first, the girls moved their bodies from side to side. Mom said firmly, ‘You must look at each other for five minutes. If you don’t make eye contact for one minute, there would be another minute sitting in the chairs.’”可知，妈妈要求她们对视五分钟，如果不进行眼神交流，就要再坐一分钟，所以“contact”意为“交流”。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据文章内容，妈妈通过让两个争吵的女儿面对面坐着对视五分钟的方式，巧妙地化解了她们之间的矛盾，让她们重新开心起来，这说明妈妈很明智地解决了女孩们的问题。故选A。 Sometimes, families can be hard. They argue a lot. People get upset. Sometimes they stop talking. Our family has had lots of ups and downs. I’d say arguments often happen in our family, too. I have an older brother and an older sister. I’m the baby boy in the family. We grew up in a quite small house and often didn’t have a lot of money. My mom and dad argued pretty much, just about anything. My brother and sister argued. And I used to argue, too. But as I got older, I always chose to be the mediator (调停者). I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace. “Dad, you shouldn’t have said that to Mom, and Mom, try to see it this way.” “Come on guys, we all love each other. It’s just been a bad day.” I’d say it often worked. I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don’t go in your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn’t done. The key is to try and understand. Of course, sometimes arguments do need to happen. If something is wrong, it needs to be solved and sometimes, we get angry about it. But as long as we can look at things with an attitude of care and responsibility (责任), we can weather the storm and help each other out. 1．What do we know about the writer’s family? A．Two of the kids in the family are girls. B．The writer is the youngest in the family. C．The writer never argues with his parents. D．The parents get along well with each other. 2．As a mediator, what did the writer often do? A．He started a conversation angrily. B．He did nothing to help but watch. C．He helped one side to fight the other. D．He tried to make an agreement with each other. 3．What does the underlined part mean? A．We can ask somebody for help when in trouble. B．We can tell exactly what the weather will be like. C．We can deal with a difficult situation successfully. D．We can learn how to keep cool during a storm. 4．What did the writer learn from his family? A．A family shouldn’t share feelings with each other. B．A family should understand and care for each other. C．Arguing is always bad and should never happen. D．Knowledge is useless in communication. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文讲述了作者的家庭中经常发生争吵，但随着年龄增长，作者学会了作为调停者来化解矛盾。作者从家庭中领悟到了理解、耐心以及相互关爱的重要性，并认为只要以关心和负责的态度看待问题，就能克服困难，相互帮助。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“I have an older brother and an older sister. I’m the baby boy in the family.”可知，作者是家里最小的孩子。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace.”可知，作为调停者，作者经常尝试让双方达成一致，化解矛盾。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段“But as long as we can look at things with an attitude of care and responsibility (责任), we can weather the storm and help each other out.”可知，只要以关心和负责的态度看待问题，就能克服困难，相互帮助。因此，“weather the storm”在此处意为“成功应对困难局面”。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don’t go in your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn’t done. The key is to try and understand.”可知，作者从家庭中学到了理解、耐心以及相互关爱的重要性。故选B。 People are so busy these days that many people have no time to cook.

In some families, meals are often the only time everyone sees one another at the same time. Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child’s sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message, too.

I didn’t like it. The rooms felt cold. But we brought one thing from our old home—Grandma’s clock. It was brown, full of scratches (划痕), and made a loud “tick-tock” sound. Grandma once said, “This clock isn’t just for time. It holds our family’s stories.” Every scratch had a memory. The deepest scratch? My dad made it when he was a boy. He tried to fix the clock with a metal stick (铁棍). The numbers at the bottom (底部)? My mom spilled (溢出) hot soup there on the day I was born. One cold night, the clock stopped. The “tick-tock” sound I always heard was gone. I saw Dad sitting quietly in front of it. His eyes were wet. “Grandma died ten years ago today,” he said softly. Then I realized the clock wasn’t just wood and glass. It was Dad’s childhood, mom’s happy days, and all our time together. We tried to fix it as a family. Mom held the tools, Dad opened the clock, and I cleaned the dirty glass. Suddenly, Dad laughed. “Look! Your baby tooth is here!” He pointed at a small white thing inside the clock. We laughed until tears came when we looked at it. That night, the clock started working again. Its “tick-tock” sounded even louder. Now, when friends visit, they say, “Your home feels so warm!” They don’t see new things. They hear the clock’s sound, like a heartbeat (心跳) that ties our past to now. Home isn’t about perfect walls or quiet rooms. It’s about keeping what you love—even if it’s an old clock that tells your family’s story. 1．What caused the deepest scratch on the clock? A．Mom spilled hot soup. B．The baby tooth fell inside. C．Grandma cleaned it too hard. D．Dad tried to fix it with a metal stick. 2．Put the following information into the correct order according to the passage. ①Dad cried    ②The clock broke.    ③The family found a baby tooth. ④The clock’s sound became louder.    ⑤The family fixed the clock together. A．①②⑤③④ B．②①⑤③④ C．⑤①②③④ D．②①④③⑤ 3．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．The clock. B．The dirty glass. C．The tool. D．The baby tooth. 4．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5．What’s the best title of the passage? A．Fixing an Old Family Clock B．Moving to a Cold New House C．A Clock Full of Family Stories D．Why We Should Keep Old Things 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．D 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文通过讲述一个家庭钟表的故事，展现了它承载的家庭记忆与情感纽带。 1．细节理解题。 根据第2段“The deepest scratch? My dad made it when he was a boy. He tried to fix the clock with a metal stick (铁棍).”可知，最深的划痕是父亲小时候用铁棍修理时钟时留下的。故选D。 2．推理判断题。 根据第3-4段内容“One cold night, the clock stopped....I saw Dad sitting quietly in front of it. His eyes were wet... We tried to fix it as a family... Look! Your baby tooth is here!...That night, the clock started working again. Its ‘tick-tock’ sounded even louder.”可知，正确顺序为：钟表坏了（②）→父亲流泪（①）→全家一起修理（⑤）→发现乳牙（③）→钟声更响（④）。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据第四段“‘Look! Your baby tooth is here!’ He pointed at a small white thing inside the clock”及后文“We laughed until tears came when we looked at it”可知，是看着上文爸爸说的乳牙，“it”指代前文提到的“baby tooth”。故选D。 4．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，全文分为三部分：首段引出钟表（1段）→中间展开家庭故事（2-5段）→末段总结升华（6段），B项结构图符合。故选B。 5．最佳标题。 文章核心讲述这座旧钟中承载的种种家庭故事，第2段“This clock isn’t just for time. It holds our family’s stories”点明主题，所以最佳标题应是“A Clock Full of Family Stories.”。故选C。 Our parents are important people in our life. They are our first teachers in our life.

In China, filial piety has been a key value for thousands of years, shaping how families live and how society works. Our parents do so much for us. They feed us, take care of us, and teach us right from wrong. It’s only natural that we should feel grateful and want to repay them for their love and care. For teenagers, filial piety means trying to make parents happy, whether it’s through small actions or bigger efforts. In China, students often express filial piety in meaningful ways. For example, they help wash their parents’ feet, cook meals for them, or write heartfelt thank-you cards. These small gestures may seem simple, but they carry deep love and thankfulness. By doing these things, we make our relationship with our parents closer, which is good for both our families and ourselves. Confucius (孔子), the great Chinese philosopher, believed that filial piety goes beyond just loving your parents. He taught that if everyone is good to their parents, they will also be kind and respectful to others. This kindness can stop fights and bring peace to society. Then we could bring peace to the world. I think this is a brilliant idea. It means that filial piety is not only about loving your parents, but about loving everyone! To me, filial piety is something we should practise for our whole lives. We can show it by being there for our parents when they feel lonely, helping them with housework, or giving money when needed. These actions show true kindness and love. Let’s remember that being good to our parents is not just a duty—it’s also the foundation of better society. 1．What does filial piety mean for teenagers according to the article? A．Fighting with their parents. B．Trying to make their parents happy. C．Asking their parents for everything. D．Doing everything for parents. 2．What do Chinese students usually do to show filial piety? A．Cook for their parents. B．Ask parents to wash their feet. C．Finish their homework by themselves. D．Bring peace to parents. 3．What did Confucius believe? A．We couldn’t bring peace to the world. B．We should only be good to our parents. C．We should love our parents and other people. D．We could argue with others kindly. 4．What does the underlined word “brilliant” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Foolish. B．Great. C．Ordinary. D．Strange. 5．What’s the main idea of this passage? A．Confucius was a great teacher. B．Students should help parents do housework. C．Filial piety is the most important virtues. D．Human life is a lifelong journey. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文阐述了孝道在中国文化中的核心地位，强调孝敬父母不仅是传统美德，更是构建和谐家庭与社会的基础，并通过具体事例和孔子思想说明孝道的深远意义。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“For teenagers, filial piety means trying to make parents happy”可知，对青少年来说孝道意味着努力让父母开心。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“they help wash their parents’ feet, cook meals for them, or write heartfelt thank-you cards”可知，中国学生通常会为通过为父母洗脚，为父母做饭或者写衷心的感谢卡来表达孝道。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段“Confucius (孔子), the great Chinese philosopher, believed that filial piety goes beyond just loving your parents. He taught that if everyone is good to their parents, they will also be kind and respectful to others.”可知孔子认为孝道不仅限于爱父母，还应推及他人。故选C。 4．词句猜测题。根据“This kindness can stop fights and bring peace to society. Then we could bring peace to the world. I think this is a brilliant idea.”的积极语境，可推断“brilliant”意为“极好的”，和“Great”同义。故选B。 5．主旨大意题。通读文章可知全文围绕“孝道是最重要的美德”展开，首段直接点明主题，后文通过具体事例和孔子思想进行论证。故选C。 As a means of cheering up their neighbors in lockdown (封锁), an English family from Wellington colored every brick (砖) of their home with crayons (蜡笔) to make a “rainbow house”. 26-year-old mother Fern Taylor started the work with her daughters, Arabella and Matilda. Her husband (丈夫), Marco DeFazio, then used a ladder (梯子) to finish the work. “We got the idea from a post online,” said Fern. “They did half the house, but Marco said we couldn’t stop there.

She didn’t quite understand, but she did help a bit. Arabella is four, and she was a good helper. She helped for half an hour.

The fact is, I’m not happy with some of our family rules. After all, I’m not a child anymore. I’m 14. I’m a teenager now. Anyway, I don’t know how to “talk to” you, so please “hear me out”. First, can I spend more time with my friends on Saturday night? Every time we decide to watch a two-hour movie after six o’clock, I have to explain to you that I won’t make it home on time if I join them. They often call me a “killjoy (使人扫兴的人)”, and I am so embarrassed (尴尬的). So, can I stay out until 10 p.m. on Saturday? Second, can I have more allowance (零用钱)? I plan to take tennis lessons this summer, but all my money has gone to snacks, drinks, books, music, and video games.

Every member plays an important role in making their home comfortable and happy. Teng Fei’s father, who works as a cook, prepares delicious meals for the family every evening. His mother, a teacher, keeps the house tidy and organizes weekly family meetings where everyone can share their thoughts. Teng Fei, a hard-working eighth grader, always washes dishes after dinner and keeps his study area clean. Even his playful 10-year-old sister Mei contributes (贡献) by feeding their pet dog Max and watering the indoor plants. What makes their family truly special is how they balance work and fun. Weekdays are busy with school and jobs, but weekends are for a happy time together. They might visit the local library, have friendly badminton matches at the park, or try out new kinds of food in their small but warm kitchen. Their favourite tradition is “Family Fun Night” every Saturday. Last week, Mei chose a very interesting karaoke session where they all sang terribly but laughed until their stomachs hurt. The week before, Teng Fei taught everyone how to make origami (折纸) animals. Teng Fei recently wrote in his diary: “Our home isn’t measured by its size or fancy furniture, but by how we care for each other. When Mom stays up late helping me with homework, when Dad surprises us with pancakes on Sunday mornings, or when Mei draws silly pictures to cheer me up—these moments make our house a home.” His words perfectly show the spirit of their family—where everyday actions, no matter how small, weave together to create something truly precious (珍贵的). 1．What special responsibility does Teng Fei’s mother have at home? A．Cooking all family meals. B．Driving children to school. C．Washing everyone’s clothes. D．Organizing weekly family meetings. 2．What activity did the family do during last week’s “Family Fun Night”? A．Played badminton. B．Visited the library. C．Had a karaoke session. D．Made origami animals. 3．What can we infer about Teng Fei’s attitude toward his family? A．He thinks housework is unfair. B．He wishes they had a bigger house. C．He prefers spending time with friends. D．He values their everyday moments together. 4．What does the underlined word “haven” most likely mean in the first paragraph? A．A safe, comfortable place. B．A small wooden boat. C．An expensive building. D．A dark, huge and deep hole. 5．What is the main purpose of this passage? A．To advertise family activities. B．To explain how to divide housework. C．To describe what makes a house a home. D．To compare different kinds of parenting styles. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．D 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述滕飞一家各尽其责，平衡工作与娱乐，日常点滴的关爱让房子成为充满温暖的家。 1．细节理解题。根据文中第一段“His mother, a teacher, keeps the house tidy and organizes weekly family meetings where everyone can share their thoughts.”可知，滕飞的妈妈负责组织每周的家庭会议。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“Their favourite tradition is ‘Family Fun Night’ every Saturday. Last  week, Mei chose a very interesting karaoke session where they all sang terribly but laughed until their stomachs hurt.” 可知，上周的“家庭欢乐夜”他们进行了卡拉OK活动。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段滕飞日记中的内容“Our home isn’t measured by its size or fancy furniture, but by how we care for each other...these moments make our house a home.”可知，他重视家人在一起的日常瞬间。故选D。 4．词义猜测题。“haven”出现在第一段“home is much more than just a place to live—it’s a warm haven  filled with love, laughter, and shared responsibilities.” 结合上下文，家被描述为充满爱、欢笑和共同责任的温暖之地，因此“haven”应表示安全、舒适的地方。故选A。 5．主旨大意题。文章开篇指出家对滕飞一家来说不仅是居住的地方，更是充满爱的港湾，接着描述家人各自的责任和共同的欢乐时光，最后通过滕飞的日记点明“家不在于大小或家具，而在于彼此的关爱”。选项C“描述是什么让房子成为家”准确概括了文章主旨。故选C。 16 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 21 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
