This year, out of 300,000 applicants, around 45,000 were chosen as volunteers, with 20 percent coming from nearly 150 countries. These volunteers wore bright green uniforms to be easily seen in the purple stadium. They offered help to viewers and media, making them an important part of the Olympic experience. On my first day as a reporter, I met a technical problem with my media system account. Thankfully, Chinese volunteer Guo came to help me out. “I hope to improve my language, communication skills, and problem-solving methods through this event,” said 24-year-old Guo from Wuhan, Central China’s Hubei Province, who was studying engineering at the Paris Institute of Digital Technology. As a former professional swimmer, Guo saw this as her chance to take part in the Olympics, though in a different role. Another Chinese volunteer, Yang, faced challenges in managing her job and volunteer duties. She felt great pride in contributing to the event. One of my most unforgettable experiences was meeting with a French volunteer. When I needed help to find the visitor center, a young man on a scooter (小型摩托车) appeared, like a sort of “Monkey King riding a cloud”, and offered to take me there. After helping me, he expressed his admiration for the Beijing Olympics and his desire to visit China again.

I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years, hoping America would help my future. My father decided that I would have a better education here, so I enrolled (登记) in the local high school in my new town. I was afraid of how I would do. On the first day, I went to my second class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered, “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector (投影仪). In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular (惯常的) process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s still fourth period.” “But the bell just rang,” I said. Changing from a gentle tone to a harsh (刺耳的) one, she said, “That is the lunch bell, young man.” I apologized. Without another word I headed for the cafeteria (自助食堂). I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I saw my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t so bad. 1．Why did the author enroll in an American high school? A．Because his mother had worked in it for 3 years. B．Because his father thought little of Indian schools.

Unable to find suitable wheelchair-adaptive strollers (婴儿车) online, Chelsie approached Matt Zigler, a teacher at her school, Bullis School. Zigler, who leads the school’s creative technology lab, saw this as a chance for his “Making for Social Good” class to design a solution. The students brainstormed ideas and interviewed the Kings to better understand the requirements. “The hardest part of the project was putting ourselves in the shoes of a person with physical disabilities,” Zigler told CNN. “To achieve a successful project we had to use empathy (共情) and really make sure we were thinking about everything a person with Mr. King’s disabilities would be forced to consider.” They needed a design that was safe, easy to use, and would allow Jeremy to independently attach and detach (拆开) the stroller from his wheelchair. The students used 3D printing and materials from Home Depot to create two key products: the WheeStroll Wheelchair Stroller Attachment for newborns, and a second version for older babies. In just a few months, the group’s joint effort saw them create an amazing solution allowing people with disabilities to walk their babies independently, just in time for the birth of the couple’s son. The Kings were content with the result. Jeremy expressed how excited it was to finally have the ability to take a walk with his child, something he didn’t think would be possible. The invention gave the family more freedom and mobility, and the class’s design won two international awards. Zigler stressed the importance of sharing the design so that others can recreate it in workshops around the world, helping more parents with similar problems. 1．Why did the Kings need a special stroller?

By cleanly stomping back-to-back 1800 tricks, the teenager landed the biggest prize so far in his young career — gold in the men’s Big. Air at the Beijing Winter Olympics. The notable achievement realized a childhood dream to reach the peak of the sport, which he began to learn at the age of 4. Now with two shinning medals hung around his neck, the 17-year-old described his superb Olympic debut (首秀) as an unbelievable experience that has made all his sacrifices worthwhile. “This feels so surreal that I’ve finally accomplished what I’ve dreamed of since I was little,” said an emotional Su. Over the past four years, Su has combined his talent with hard work to produce one of the swiftest rises to prominence the sport has ever seen. When the Shougang Big Air venue hosted its first international event, Su was an unknown qualifier, who didn’t even make the final runs. Just over two years later, Su is the name on everyone’s lips at the venue s Olympic debut — drawing the whole nation’s attention to the sport he loves. “The biggest motivation (动力) for me is my love for snowboarding,” Su said, when asked about the secret to his success. “In snowboarding, I feel like I can show my own style and creativity. Every time I ride my board, it’s always a joyful moment. I hope through my experience, I can inspire more young people to get interested in the sport.” Su, a former child actor who featured in action movies, said the Olympic gold will encourage him to seek for more breakthroughs — even beyond his athletic career. “I enjoy snowboarding just as much as I enjoy acting,” said Su, who turns 18 on Friday. “I think I still have a lot of possibilities to explore in my future career either in snowboarding or in acting.

All of my hard work had paid off. My mom had spent a lot in my attending a private (私立的) high school, so I made sure to push myself: I volunteered, got involved in various clubs, and graduated with honors.

In three months, Jennifer Holstein cycled 2,500 kilometers through three provinces with just two small bags. Living in Beijing, her life was already great. But Holstein felt the urge to travel the world and look for adventure. It was mid-August of 2021 that the idea came to her to travel China by bicycle. At that time, Holstein had never cycled for more than 20 kilometers around her local city of Beijing. Holstein shared an experience from the beginning of her trip when she found herself stuck in a tunnel (隧道) with a flat tire.

They gave me a dress and even did my makeup. I never thought I would ever have the chance to take part in a Tibetan wedding.” According to Holstein, “Many people want to travel the world and take huge risks, but never do. Don’t just live your life hoping your wildest dreams will become a reality someday.

Sam, our shiny black dog, loved to play with the kids and protect them. But Sandy had a fear of dogs, and she started to back away as Sam approached. I grabbed Sam’s collar and made him sit, trying to ease Sandy’s discomfort. Sandy mentioned that she needed to get her kids ready to go to their grandmother’s house. Just then, her door opened and her kids rushed out. Sandy shouted at them to stay away from Sam. The kids huddled (蜷缩) around their mom, looking at Sam cautiously (谨慎地). Emma, my daughter showed the kids how to approach a dog slowly and properly. The kids were won over by Sam’s friendly nature, but I knew it would take some time for Sandy to change her viewpoint. After that incident, we made sure that Sam didn’t go near our neighbors without me present. One day, when the kids were playing across the street. I noticed the eighteen-month-old baby heading towards a small hill. I saw a car approaching and shouted to everyone to watch the baby. Without hesitation, Sam rushed out the door and ran across the street towards the baby. He ran to the boy in time to gently push the baby away from the oncoming car. The kids cheered, completely unaware of the danger. They thought Sam had come to play. Within a year, Sam had made friends with all the neighbors.

When he saw that a foreign engineer had developed an autonomous e-bike, he decided to build one himself. But when testing his self-built automatic electric motor in January 2020, an explosion occurred, and he lost his left leg below the knee. About two months after the accident, he got his prosthetic limb (假肢). On short-video platforms, Liang saw many people with physical challenges who live no differently from other people. They ride bicycles, dance and even ski, using their prosthetic limbs. Inspired by them, Liang started to post videos about his daily life to inspire more people. Since then, he has used his engineering skills to make his prosthetic limb more comfortable and powerful than a real leg. He tried to upgrade his high-tech prosthesis, including fitting a shock absorber and putting in a charger port. One of the latest upgrades is the addition of colored LED lights to his running blade. The LED lights can be connected via Bluetooth to a smartphone and change color as they react to music. Through design, modeling and manufacturing, he made a device that can connect the socket (承窝) of the leg with the prosthetic knee. With the small device, he can take the leg off in one second. Moreover, to better learn about the structure and system of the prosthetics, he took apart some secondhand prosthetic limbs that were made in China and abroad, which cost him a lot of money. “These high-tech prosthetics are comfortable and safer to wear. They can boost confidence with every step. But the only thing is that the cost is unaffordable for most families,” Liang says. He adds that due to the small group of consumers, there are few companies in China investing in the research and development of such prosthetics. To advance functional performance and help amputees (截肢人士) maintain or regain their freedom of movement, Liang has provided his experience and suggestions for several prosthetics companies. “If there is a good opportunity, I want to make high-tech prosthetics accessible and affordable to more amputees in China,” Liang says. 1．What happened to Liang in January 2020? A．He fell off an autonomous e-bike. B．He got injured in an accidental explosion. C．He suffered from serious knee pain. D．He lost his left leg in a motor race. 2．What does the underlined word“device”in Paragraph 3 mean? A．A kind of LED light that has been designed to do a particular job. B．A Bluetooth that has been designed to do a particular job. C．A piece of equipment that has been designed to do a particular job D．A smartphone that has been designed to do a particular job. 3．What is a problem with the high-tech prosthetics according to Liang? A．They give users limited freedom of movement. B．They take much time to produce. C．They are quite heavy for amputees to wear. D．They are too expensive. 4．What words best describe Liang? A．Creative and helpful. B．Humorous and patient. C．Generous and cautious. D．Honest and courageous. 7.(23-24高一上·云南下关第一中学·期中)Recently, as I watched my son Nathan play basketball for his school team, I was feeling sorry for myself and for him. His team was facing adversity on the court, falling behind for three quarters of the game. As for me, I had just lost my job. As I watched what my son was experiencing, I recalled the events earlier in the day—packing up everything in a box and saying goodbye to my colleagues. During the drive home, I kept telling myself that I would find work again—I was confident in my experience and abilities, but self-doubt was still sticking its foot in the door. The game entered the fourth quarter with Nathan’s team still trailing (落后的). I saw the determination on his back to not only tie the game, but then go ahead by three points. Then, a player from the other team made an unbelievable shot to tie the game up again. With a tie game and seconds on the clock, Nathan found himself with the ball, and with skill and confidence, he made the basket with a defender hanging all over him. The other player was called for a foul (犯规). As Nathan stood preparing for a shot that would put his team up by three points, I saw the focus and determination on his face, with no room for self-doubt. After he made the free throw, his team managed to stop the other team from scoring, winning the game and moving on to the finals (决赛). As I sat there, my heart bursting with pride, it dawned on me. I had taught him perseverance (毅力) in the face of adversity, and he had just taught me the same lesson.

Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her. My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing (令人相信的), “This is Mrs. Tan.” And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me check already two week late. ” And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived. ” Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate (容忍) any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week. ” The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English. When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom.

The 82-year-old Japanese bodybuilder is not only in perfect physical condition, but also looks better than a lot of men a quarter his age. Kanazawa is a living example that you’re never too old to hit the gym and achieve the body you’ve always dreamed of. A champion bodybuilder in his youth, Kanazawa stopped exercising completely after he retired(退休) at age 34, drinking, smoking and eating whatever he liked. It wasn’t until he turned 50 that he wanted to regain the perfect body of his younger years.

He cut the daily gym time to three hours and started giving his body one week to recover after exercising every muscle group. Kanazawa’s efforts paid off. In 2016, at the age of 80, Kanazawa defeated many opponents and placed sixth in the world in a match for bodybuilders over 65, and won the admiration of the crowd. Sport keeps this elderly man healthy, as he has not suffered so much as a cold since he started bodybuilding again at age 50. “I want to be a super old man in the bodybuilder community,” Kanazawa said, “If I have a goal, I can continue moving forward.

Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student. So at the start of my freshman year, I had a dislike to math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able to do well. “I can’t” became my state of mind in all things related (有关的) to math. However, I was soon to learn that “I can’t” was not a choice in Mr. A’s class. Mr. A always greeted (迎接) us with open arms as he said, “Welcome! Smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never showed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “I can’t” student. I found myself looking forward to math class, although I still hated the subject itself. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel good, as if I had the chance to succeed. As the year progressed, I spent increasingly more time on my homework, and I met with Mr. A weekly. My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and a talk with Mr. A．We didn’t know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes (态度). Though my story is not one of overnight success and I didn’t become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb. There were hard times, of course.

This year, out of 300,000 applicants, around 45,000 were chosen as volunteers, with 20 percent coming from nearly 150 countries. These volunteers wore bright green uniforms to be easily seen in the purple stadium. They offered help to viewers and media, making them an important part of the Olympic experience. On my first day as a reporter, I met a technical problem with my media system account. Thankfully, Chinese volunteer Guo came to help me out. “I hope to improve my language, communication skills, and problem-solving methods through this event,” said 24-year-old Guo from Wuhan, Central China’s Hubei Province, who was studying engineering at the Paris Institute of Digital Technology. As a former professional swimmer, Guo saw this as her chance to take part in the Olympics, though in a different role. Another Chinese volunteer, Yang, faced challenges in managing her job and volunteer duties. She felt great pride in contributing to the event. One of my most unforgettable experiences was meeting with a French volunteer.

I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, who had been here for three years, hoping America would help my future. My father decided that I would have a better education here, so I enrolled (登记) in the local high school in my new town. I was afraid of how I would do. On the first day, I went to my second class after I had missed my first. With anxiety, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Without paying attention to my classmates, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered, “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a sheet called Course Requirements, which I would never get in India because we didn’t have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector (投影仪). In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke. It was noon. I was very confused about when I would have lunch. I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the regular (惯常的) process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. She said, “It’s still fourth period.” “But the bell just rang,” I said. Changing from a gentle tone to a harsh (刺耳的) one, she said, “That is the lunch bell, young man.” I apologized. Without another word I headed for the cafeteria (自助食堂). I felt lucky because we didn’t have this in India. Every confusion seemed like a barrier I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus which we didn’t have in India either. I saw my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t so bad. 1．Why did the author enroll in an American high school? A．Because his mother had worked in it for 3 years. B．Because his father thought little of Indian schools.

Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I didn’t actually want to pick a seat. In India we had fixed seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image produced by the overhead projector (投影仪). In Indian schools, we didn’t use the technology. We had to take notes as the teacher spoke.(他给了我一张叫做“课程要求”的表格，我在印度永远也拿不到，因为我们没有这样的东西。然后他让我选择坐在哪里。其实我并不想选座位。在印度，我们的座位是固定的，所以我从来不需要担心这个问题。剩下的时间里，我都在根据投影仪产生的图像做笔记。在印度的学校里，我们没有使用这项技术。老师讲课时我们必须记笔记)”可知，美国高中和印度高中有很大差异。故选D项。 3．词句猜测题。根据划线单词句后的“…I had to get through to reach my goal.(我必须克服barrier以达到目标)”并结合上文讲述作者的遭遇可猜测，划线单词为“障碍，困难”的意思，与B项Difficulty“困难”意思一致。故选B项。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I saw my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn’t so bad.(我看到我的公共汽车，高兴地坐在里面。我在想，今天还不错)”可知，作者觉得第一天还不错。因此他的态度是积极的。故选A项。 4．(24-25高一上·云南师范大学附属中学·期中)When Chelsie King, a drama teacher in Maryland, and her husband Jeremy, who uses a wheelchair because of a brain tumor operation, were expecting their first child, they faced a unique challenge: how Jeremy could safely take their baby for a walk. Unable to find suitable wheelchair-adaptive strollers (婴儿车) online, Chelsie approached Matt Zigler, a teacher at her school, Bullis School. Zigler, who leads the school’s creative technology lab, saw this as a chance for his “Making for Social Good” class to design a solution. The students brainstormed ideas and interviewed the Kings to better understand the requirements. “The hardest part of the project was putting ourselves in the shoes of a person with physical disabilities,” Zigler told CNN. “To achieve a successful project we had to use empathy (共情) and really make sure we were thinking about everything a person with Mr. King’s disabilities would be forced to consider.” They needed a design that was safe, easy to use, and would allow Jeremy to independently attach and detach (拆开) the stroller from his wheelchair. The students used 3D printing and materials from Home Depot to create two key products: the WheeStroll Wheelchair Stroller Attachment for newborns, and a second version for older babies. In just a few months, the group’s joint effort saw them create an amazing solution allowing people with disabilities to walk their babies independently, just in time for the birth of the couple’s son. The Kings were content with the result. Jeremy expressed how excited it was to finally have the ability to take a walk with his child, something he didn’t think would be possible. The invention gave the family more freedom and mobility, and the class’s design won two international awards. Zigler stressed the importance of sharing the design so that others can recreate it in workshops around the world, helping more parents with similar problems. 1．Why did the Kings need a special stroller? A．The wife had an operation. B．The husband moves with a wheelchair. C．They had a baby with special needs. D．They couldn’t afford one on the market. 2．What do we know about Matt Zigler? A．He is an art teacher. B．He offers money to the students. C．He often does experiments online. D．He leads the students to create things. 3．What puzzled the inventors most? A．To attach and detach the stroller from a wheelchair. B．To 3D print different parts of the stroller. C．To really understand the needs of the disabled. D．To ensure the safety of the invention. 4．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Pupils’ Invention Helps Dad in Wheelchair Walk Baby Around B．Young Couple Get Priceless Advice from Students C．School Teachers Make Efforts to Improve Strollers D．The Disabled Think of Creative Solutions 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 【难度】0.85 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了准妈妈Chelsie King因为丈夫坐轮椅需要特殊婴儿车，向同事Matt Zigler 求助，Zigler带领学生发明小组为他们设计了合适的婴儿车。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“and her husband Jeremy, who uses a wheelchair because of a brain tumor operation, were expecting their first child, they faced a unique challenge: how Jeremy could safely take their baby for a walk. Unable to find suitable wheelchair-adaptive strollers online. (她的丈夫Jeremy因为脑瘤手术而使用轮椅，当时他们正期待着他们的第一个孩子，他们面临着一个独特的挑战：Jeremy如何安全地带他们的孩子散步。在网上找不到合适的轮椅式婴儿车)”可知，Chelsie King和丈夫需要一辆特殊的婴儿车是因为Jeremy用轮椅移动，需要一辆可以适配轮椅的婴儿车。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Zigler, who leads the school’s creative technology lab, saw this as a chance for his ‘Making for Social Good’ class to design a solution.

(学生们集思广益，采访Chelsie King和丈夫，以更好地了解他们的需求)”可知，Matt Zigler 带领学生努力寻找解决方案，创造出了需要的产品。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Zigler told CNN. ‘To achieve a successful project we had to use empathy and really make sure we were thinking about everything a person with Mr. King’s disabilities would be forced to consider. (Zigler告诉CNN，‘为了成功完成这个项目，我们必须使用共情，并确保我们真正考虑到一个像King先生这样有残疾的人会不得不考虑的一切)”可知，发明者最困惑的是真正理解残疾人的需求。故选C。 4．主旨大意题。本文叙述了准妈妈Chelsie King因为丈夫坐轮椅需要特殊婴儿车，向同事Matt Zigler求助，Zigler带领学生发明小组为他们设计了合适的婴儿车的故事。A项“Pupils’ Invention Helps Dad in Wheelchair Walk Baby Around (学生的发明帮助坐轮椅的爸爸推着婴儿散步)”是最好的标题。故选A。 5.(23-24高一上·云南云南师范大学附属中学等·期中)Snowboarding genius Su Yiming made a name for himself by winning China’s first Olympic gold in the sport on Tuesday. By cleanly stomping back-to-back 1800 tricks, the teenager landed the biggest prize so far in his young career — gold in the men’s Big. Air at the Beijing Winter Olympics. The notable achievement realized a childhood dream to reach the peak of the sport, which he began to learn at the age of 4. Now with two shinning medals hung around his neck, the 17-year-old described his superb Olympic debut (首秀) as an unbelievable experience that has made all his sacrifices worthwhile. “This feels so surreal that I’ve finally accomplished what I’ve dreamed of since I was little,” said an emotional Su. Over the past four years, Su has combined his talent with hard work to produce one of the swiftest rises to prominence the sport has ever seen. When the Shougang Big Air venue hosted its first international event, Su was an unknown qualifier, who didn’t even make the final runs. Just over two years later, Su is the name on everyone’s lips at the venue s Olympic debut — drawing the whole nation’s attention to the sport he loves. “The biggest motivation (动力) for me is my love for snowboarding,” Su said, when asked about the secret to his success. “In snowboarding, I feel like I can show my own style and creativity. Every time I ride my board, it’s always a joyful moment. I hope through my experience, I can inspire more young people to get interested in the sport.” Su, a former child actor who featured in action movies, said the Olympic gold will encourage him to seek for more breakthroughs — even beyond his athletic career. “I enjoy snowboarding just as much as I enjoy acting,” said Su, who turns 18 on Friday. “I think I still have a lot of possibilities to explore in my future career either in snowboarding or in acting. But now I just want to enjoy the moment and celebrate it as the best possible birthday gift.” 1．What does the underlined word “landed” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．Arrived. B．Gained. C．Created. D．Dreamed. 2．According to Su himself, what is his secret to his success? A．His acting experience. B．His talent and hard working. C．His love for snowboarding.

At the end of the term, we all packed our bags and our instruments to go home for the holidays. Most kids went by train, or bus, or their parents took them home by car. Not me! I went home by ferry (渡船) —14 hours overnight on the open sea. I loved it! One summer I packed my suitcase and violin and said goodbye to my friends. I took the train to the ferry station and then got on the ferry. When we started moving away, I remembered a terrible thing! I left my violin on the train! I went to ask one of the crew (船员) what to do, but he said he couldn’t stop the ferry for me. What should I do? What would my dad say? He’d be really angry! I was worried, and didn’t sleep all night. The next morning I got off the ferry to meet my dad. I didn’t want to look at him. I told him what happened. He laughed. I looked at him and couldn’t believe it. Why was he laughing? In my violin case, I always have a label with my address and a telephone number. My dad told me, “A cleaner found your violin by the label on the train in London and took it to the police. They called me. They put the violin on a plane and it arrived an hour before you did.” My dad had it in his car! Thanks to those people, my violin was safe home! 1．Where was the writer’s home?

All of my hard work had paid off. My mom had spent a lot in my attending a private (私立的) high school, so I made sure to push myself: I volunteered, got involved in various clubs, and graduated with honors. I was so excited to start a new chapter (篇章) of my life. I had totally packed two weeks before it was time to leave. Soon enough, the big day came, but it wasn’t like what I had thought.

To distract myself, I threw myself into my studies and I applied for a ton of jobs. In any remaining free time, I started forcing myself to the gym. I wanted to keep every part of my day busy so I wouldn’t think how lonely I felt. Soon after, I began to limit food, and then I became worse. Finally, I went to see a doctor. When the doctor weighed me, I was crazy about the number of my weight. So I continued to lower my goal, and convinced that controlling this number was the solution for my homesickness. But when I was told that I had no choice but to spend time on my studies, I quickly started recovery in my mind. How could I do? I told myself that school was what I was best at.

When he saw that a foreign engineer had developed an autonomous e-bike, he decided to build one himself. But when testing his self-built automatic electric motor in January 2020, an explosion occurred, and he lost his left leg below the knee. About two months after the accident, he got his prosthetic limb (假肢). On short-video platforms, Liang saw many people with physical challenges who live no differently from other people. They ride bicycles, dance and even ski, using their prosthetic limbs. Inspired by them, Liang started to post videos about his daily life to inspire more people. Since then, he has used his engineering skills to make his prosthetic limb more comfortable and powerful than a real leg. He tried to upgrade his high-tech prosthesis, including fitting a shock absorber and putting in a charger port. One of the latest upgrades is the addition of colored LED lights to his running blade. The LED lights can be connected via Bluetooth to a smartphone and change color as they react to music. Through design, modeling and manufacturing, he made a device that can connect the socket (承窝) of the leg with the prosthetic knee. With the small device, he can take the leg off in one second. Moreover, to better learn about the structure and system of the prosthetics, he took apart some secondhand prosthetic limbs that were made in China and abroad, which cost him a lot of money. “These high-tech prosthetics are comfortable and safer to wear. They can boost confidence with every step. But the only thing is that the cost is unaffordable for most families,” Liang says. He adds that due to the small group of consumers, there are few companies in China investing in the research and development of such prosthetics. To advance functional performance and help amputees (截肢人士) maintain or regain their freedom of movement, Liang has provided his experience and suggestions for several prosthetics companies. “If there is a good opportunity, I want to make high-tech prosthetics accessible and affordable to more amputees in China,” Liang says. 1．What happened to Liang in January 2020? A．He fell off an autonomous e-bike. B．He got injured in an accidental explosion. C．He suffered from serious knee pain.

B．A Bluetooth that has been designed to do a particular job. C．A piece of equipment that has been designed to do a particular job D．A smartphone that has been designed to do a particular job. 3．What is a problem with the high-tech prosthetics according to Liang? A．They give users limited freedom of movement. B．They take much time to produce. C．They are quite heavy for amputees to wear. D．They are too expensive. 4．What words best describe Liang? A．Creative and helpful. B．Humorous and patient. C．Generous and cautious. D．Honest and courageous. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．A 【难度】0.65 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了青年工程师梁开宇在一次意外中丧失了左腿，然而他并没有丧失信心，而是利用自己的技术给自己设计一个很舒适的假肢，他也想通过自身的经历来鼓励那些截肢者。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But when testing his self-built automatic electric motor in January 2020, an explosion occurred, and he lost his left leg below the knee.(但在2020年1月测试他自制的自动电动机时，发生了爆炸，他失去了膝盖以下的左腿。)”可知，2020年一月份，他在一次意外爆炸中受了伤。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据上文“Through design, modeling and manufacturing, he made a device that can connect the socket (承窝) of the leg with the prosthetic knee.(通过设计、建模和制造，他制作了一个可以连接腿窝和假膝的装置。)”和下文“he can take the leg off in one second.(他可以在一秒钟内把腿取下来。”可知，这个device (装置) 指的是“一种被设计用来做特定工作的设备”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“But the only thing is that the cost is unaffordable for most families(但唯一的问题是，这个费用对大多数家庭来说都是负担不起的。)”可知，高科技假肢的问题是它们太贵了。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“As an engineer, building things was Liang Kaiyu’s hobby in his spare time.

Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her. My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing (令人相信的), “This is Mrs. Tan.” And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me check already two week late. ” And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived. ” Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate (容忍) any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week. ” The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English. When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world. 1．Why was the author’s mother poorly served? A．She was unable to speak good English.

Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. (当我在美国长大时，我为我母亲的中国式英语感到羞耻。由于英语不好，她经常受到不公平的待遇。)”可知，母亲之所以遭遇到不公的对待是因为她英语不好。故选A。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段中“I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. (我被迫向那些对她无礼的人询问信息，甚至对他们大喊大叫。)”可知，作者是被迫为妈妈打电话，对向她的那些无礼的人询问信息，或者对他们大喊大叫。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中““I can’t tolerate (容忍) any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week. ” (“我再也不能容忍任何借口了。如果我不能马上收到支票，我下星期在纽约的时候就得和你们经理谈谈了。”)”以及倒数第二段中“The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English. (下个星期我们到了纽约。当我红着脸坐在那里的时候，我的母亲，真正的谭太太，正在用她蹩脚的英语对他的老板大喊大叫。)”可知，一个星期后，作者和母亲如电话中所说，到了纽约，即作者在给对方通电话后并未收到支票。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world. (正是这种语言帮助塑造了我看待事物、表达想法和理解世界的方式。)”可知，现在作者认为母亲的英文帮助作者了解了这个世界。故选C。 主题02 人与自我——个人成长、心理调适、自我挑战、梦想追求 1．(24-25高一上·云南曲靖第一中学·期中)Most people in their eighties would consider themselves lucky not to have health problems, but this is not the case with Toshisuke Kanazawa. The 82-year-old Japanese bodybuilder is not only in perfect physical condition, but also looks better than a lot of men a quarter his age. Kanazawa is a living example that you’re never too old to hit the gym and achieve the body you’ve always dreamed of. A champion bodybuilder in his youth, Kanazawa stopped exercising completely after he retired(退休) at age 34, drinking, smoking and eating whatever he liked. It wasn’t until he turned 50 that he wanted to regain the perfect body of his younger years. Kanazawa’s wife felt sick frequently, and the former bodybuilder remembered that she had never been happier than when he won the national championship. So, to please her, he decided to return to the gym and completely change his diet. His workout schedule had to change according to his age. In his youth, he would spend up to six hours training in the gym every day, and his body would recover within two days after a particularly intensive workout, but that was not the case anymore. He cut the daily gym time to three hours and started giving his body one week to recover after exercising every muscle group. Kanazawa’s efforts paid off. In 2016, at the age of 80, Kanazawa defeated many opponents and placed sixth in the world in a match for bodybuilders over 65, and won the admiration of the crowd. Sport keeps this elderly man healthy, as he has not suffered so much as a cold since he started bodybuilding again at age 50. “I want to be a super old man in the bodybuilder community,” Kanazawa said, “If I have a goal, I can continue moving forward. I have to work much harder.” 1．What can we learn about Kanazawa from paragraph 2? A．He started bodybuilding at the age of 34. B．He seldom exercised when he was young. C．He had serious health problems in his youth. D．He developed an unhealthy lifestyle after he retired. 2．Why did Kanazawa decide to take up exercise again? A．To make a living B．To help change his diet. C．To cheer up his wife. D．To recover from illness. 3．What did old Kanazawa do while rebuilding his body? A．He went on a diet. B．He turned to the doctor for advice. C．He combined relaxation with exercise. D．He spent up to six hours training every day. 4．What can be the best title for the text? A．Bodybuilding: No Age Limit B．Champion: The Result of Workout C．Understanding: A Secret to Happiness D．Exercise: The Best Medicine for Illnesses 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．A 【难度】0.65 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了健美运动员Kanazawa退役后一度养成不健康的生活方式，后来为了取悦妻子重新锻炼，老年又获得成功的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A champion bodybuilder in his youth, Kanazawa stopped exercising completely after he retired(退休) at age 34, drinking, smoking and eating whatever he liked. (Kanazawa在年轻时曾是健美冠军，但在34岁退休后，他完全停止了锻炼，开始喝酒、抽烟，想吃什么就吃什么。)”可知，Kanazawa退役后养成了不健康的生活方式。故选D项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Kanazawa’s wife felt sick frequently, and the former bodybuilder remembered that she had never been happier than when he won the national championship. So, to please her, he decided to return to the gym and completely change his diet. (Kanazawa的妻子经常生病，这位前健美运动员记得，当他赢得全国冠军时，她从来没有像现在那样快乐过。所以，为了取悦她，他决定回到健身房，彻底改变他的饮食习惯。)”可知，Kanazawa为了使他的妻子高兴起来决定重新开始锻炼。故选C项。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段中“In his youth, he would spend up to six hours training in the gym every day, and his body would recover within two days after a particularly intensive workout, but that was not the case anymore. He cut the daily gym time to three hours and started giving his body one week to recover after exercising every muscle group. (年轻时，他每天在健身房训练长达6个小时，经过特别密集的锻炼后，他的身体会在两天内恢复，但现在情况已经不同了。他将每天的健身时间减少到3小时，并开始在锻炼完所有肌肉群后给身体一周的时间来恢复。)”可知，老Kanazawa在重新锻炼他的身体时把放松和锻炼结合起来。故选C项。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段中“Kanazawa is a living example that you’re never too old to hit the gym and achieve the body you’ve always dreamed of. (Kanazawa是一个活生生的例子，你永远不会因为年龄太大而不能去健身房，实现你一直梦想的身材。)”可知， Kanazawa的故事说明了不能因为年龄太大而不进行健身。A.“健身：没有年龄限制”符合主题，故选A项。 2．(23-24高一上·云南昭通昭阳区第一中学·期中)Math had never been something I was good at since middle school. Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student. So at the start of my freshman year, I had a dislike to math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able to do well. “I can’t” became my state of mind in all things related (有关的) to math. However, I was soon to learn that “I can’t” was not a choice in Mr. A’s class. Mr. A always greeted (迎接) us with open arms as he said, “Welcome! Smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never showed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “I can’t” student. I found myself looking forward to math class, although I still hated the subject itself. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel good, as if I had the chance to succeed. As the year progressed, I spent increasingly more time on my homework, and I met with Mr. A weekly. My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and a talk with Mr. A．We didn’t know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes (态度). Though my story is not one of overnight success and I didn’t become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb. There were hard times, of course. Difficult math questions sometimes succeeded in bringing me down, but Mr. A kept reminding (提醒) me, “Kate, smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” 1．What can we know about the author from Paragraph 1? A．He was the math teacher’s dream student. B．He was satisfied with his current situation. C．He did not believe his ability to learn math well. D．He was good at math before high school. 2．Which of the following can best describe Mr. A? A．Responsible and honest. B．Optimistic and passionate. C．Enthusiastic and humorous. D．Creative and patient. 3．What change has the author made under Mr. A’s influence? A．He gradually improved his math grades. B．He never met any difficulties again. C．He lived a more happier life than before. D．He fell in love with math. 4．What’s the main idea of this passage? A．Math requires much more time to master. B．Good schools have good teaching qualities. C．Students should face difficulties bravely while learning. D．A good teacher can motivate students’ interest in learning. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．D 【难度】0.65 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者在高中期间对数学充满恐惧和无助感，但在极富热情的数学老师Mr. A的激励下，作者开始坚持努力学习数学并取得了一定的进步。文章强调了好的老师可以对学生情感和学习产生积极的影响。 1．推理判断题。根据第一段中“Math had never been something I was good at since middle school. Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student.(从中学开始，我就不擅长数学。高中的课程越来越难，我离数学老师理想中的学生更远了。)”以及““I can’t” became my state of mind in all things related (有关的) to math.(“我不能”成为我在所有与数学有关的事情上的心态。)”可知，第一段中指出作者在与数学上有着“我不能”的心态即不相信自己有学好数学的能力。故选C。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段中“It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never showed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “I can’t” student.( 很明显，A先生不仅对数学很有热情，而且对教学也很有热情。如果A先生在生活中经历过糟糕的日子，他从来没有表现出来。A先生每天都用同样的微笑迎接我们。他鼓励每一个学生，从成绩最好的学生到“我不能”的学生。)”可知，因为他不仅对数学很有热情，对教学也很有热情，同时面临糟糕的日子，他也总是会微笑面对。因此A先生是一个充满热情并且乐观积极的人。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Though my story is not one of overnight success and I didn’t become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb.(虽然我的故事不是一夜成名的，我也没有成为数学全优的学生，但我的努力确实开始得到回报，我的成绩开始慢慢攀升。)”可知，在A先生的影响下，作者的数学成绩慢慢得到了提升。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文，本文讲述了作者在高中期间对数学充满恐惧和无助感，但在极富热情的数学老师Mr. A的激励下，作者开始坚持努力学习数学并取得了一定的进步。文章强调了好的老师可以对学生情感和学习产生积极的影响。D选项“A good teacher can motivate students’ interest in learning.( 一个好老师能激发学生的学习兴趣。)”概括文章主要内容，符合题意。故选D。 主题03 人与自然——无相关题目 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
