Here are four favorite books for young readers.
Miss Rumphius
Miss Rumphius dreams of living by the sea, traveling the world and making it a more beautiful place — and she does it in her own ways, living alone with her cat and sowing lupine (羽扇豆) seeds along the coast of Maine despite the local kids who call her “That Crazy Old Lady”. Barbara Cooney based Miss Rumphius on a real person-Maine resident Hilda Hamlin, who was known as the “Lupine Lady” for her habit of sowing seeds. (For ages 5 to 8)
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
In the light of the moon, a little egg lay on a leaf. Then it became a hungry caterpillar who went into the hearts of kids everywhere. Eric Carle’s charming story and beautiful pictures make The Very Hungry Caterpillar a classic for kids. (For ages 2 to 5)
The Napping House
It’s a soft gray rainy day and everyone is asleep in the Napping House-but unfortunately, they are all trying to pile into the same bed, with unfortunate but funny results. This book by Audrey Wood (author) and Don Wood (illustrator) will put any kid to sleep-in the best possible way. (For ages 4 to 7)
Good Dog, Carl
Little Madeleine has a pretty great babysitter: a big friendly dog named Carl. Together, they go to the store and to the zoo, to parties and daycare classes. In this book, Alexandra Day lets readers form their own ideas about what’s happening on each page. (For ages 1 to 4)

Frightened, I was walking into my first school in America. 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.

C. His classmates and teachers were all unfriendly.
D. He felt differences between the two education systems.

There are now all kinds of robots that can do all kinds of things: robots that can clean your home, robots that can deliver your shopping, robots that can teach your children, and even robots that can play tennis with you.
However, a new robot from Panasonic can’t do any of these things. The new robot, called NICOBO, actually can’t do so much at all. NICOBO is a soft, “weak” robot. It is invented to become a companion for lonely people.
So what can NICOBO do? Well, the robot can wag its tail if you pet it. It can turn around, nod up and down, and move its eyes to look at you. It speaks its own language, and can also learn some simple foreign languages and talk with its owner.
The robot, which is about the size of a bowling ball, has a small child’s voice. The idea is that looking after a childlike robot that can’t even move by itself will make people feel less lonely.
However, NICOBO isn’t cheap. The robot itself costs around $460. And there’s also a monthly fee for $8 for software updates.
Will anyone buy it? Actually someone probably will. Panasonic made 320 NICOBO robots available on a website. They were all sold out in a single day.
NICOBO has been available to buy online since May 16, 2023.
8. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. Applications of robots. B. The newly-invented robots.
C. Different kinds of robots. D. Things expected to do by robots.
9. Who is NICOBO suitable for?
A. Unsocial people. B. Lazy housewives.
C. Researchers in AI. D. Students studying art.
10. What can be known about NICOBO?
A. It is a little costly. B. It looks like a child.
C. It can clean the house. D. It can only be bought offline.
11. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Robots comfort people. B. NICOBO is promising.
C. Online shopping is powerful. D. Humans like robots very much.
Richard is a very successful businessman. It is common for him to work hard with a non-stop. He wasn’t aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning, which was a sort of alarm. And then what happened? He had a week’s leave during which time he read novels, listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach, which has enabled Richard to return to work again.
In our modern life, we have lost the rhythm between action and rest. Amazingly, within this world there is a universal but silly saying: “I am so busy.”
We say this to one another as if our tireless efforts were a talent by nature and an ability to successfully deal with stress. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, and to be unable to find time to relax — this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We miss the guide telling us where to go, the food providing us with strength, the quiet giving us wisdom.
How have we allowed this to happen? I believe it is this: we have forgotten the Sabbath, the day of the week — for followers of some religions — for rest and praying. It is a day when we are not supposed to work, a time when we devote (把……奉献给) ourselves to enjoying and celebrating what is beautiful. It is a good time to bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, walk and sleep. It is a time for us to take a rest, to put our work aside, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world.
Rest is a spiritual and biological need; however, in our strong ambition to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, we may feel terribly guilty (内疚的) when we take time to rest. The Sabbath gives us permission to stop work. In fact, “Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply permission to rest; it is a rule to obey and a principle to follow.
12. What’s the function of the Paragraph 1?
A. To tell us that Richard lives a healthy life.
B. To bring up the topic of the text.
C. To give us a brief introduction of Richard.
D. To tell Richard is a successful businessman.
13. The “alarm” in the first paragraph refers to “ ”.
A. a signal of stress. B. a warning of danger.
C. a sign of age. D. a spread of disease.
14. According to Paragraph 3, a successful person is one who is believed to .
A. be able to work without stress. B. be more talented than other people.
C. be more important than anyone else. D. be busy working without time to rest.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. We should balance (平衡) work with rest.
B. The Sabbath gives us permission to rest.
C. It is silly for anyone to say “I am busy.”
D. We should be available to our family and friends.

Richard is a very successful businessman. It is common for him to work hard with a non-stop. He wasn’t aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning, which was a sort of alarm. And then what happened? He had a week’s leave during which time he read novels, listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach, which has enabled Richard to return to work again.
In our modern life, we have lost the rhythm between action and rest. Amazingly, within this world there is a universal but silly saying: “I am so busy.”
We say this to one another as if our tireless efforts were a talent by nature and an ability to successfully deal with stress. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, and to be unable to find time to relax — this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We miss the guide telling us where to go, the food providing us with strength, the quiet giving us wisdom.
How have we allowed this to happen? I believe it is this: we have forgotten the Sabbath, the day of the week — for followers of some religions — for rest and praying. It is a day when we are not supposed to work, a time when we devote (把……奉献给) ourselves to enjoying and celebrating what is beautiful. It is a good time to bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, walk and sleep. It is a time for us to take a rest, to put our work aside, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world.
Rest is a spiritual and biological need; however, in our strong ambition to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, we may feel terribly guilty (内疚的) when we take time to rest. The Sabbath gives us permission to stop work. In fact, “Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply permission to rest; it is a rule to obey and a principle to follow.
12. What’s the function of the Paragraph 1?
A. To tell us that Richard lives a healthy life.
B. To bring up the topic of the text.
C. To give us a brief introduction of Richard.
D. To tell Richard is a successful businessman.
13. The “alarm” in the first paragraph refers to “ ”.
A. a signal of stress. B. a warning of danger.
C. a sign of age. D. a spread of disease.
14. According to Paragraph 3, a successful person is one who is believed to .
A. be able to work without stress. B. be more talented than other people.
C. be more important than anyone else. D. be busy working without time to rest.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. We should balance (平衡) work with rest.
B. The Sabbath gives us permission to rest.
C. It is silly for anyone to say “I am busy.”
D. We should be available to our family and friends.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了在现代生活中,我们已经失去了工作与休息之间的节奏,没有意识到休息是精神上和心理上的需要,我们应该平衡生活和休息,不会休息的人就不会工作。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段“Richard is a very a successful businessman. It is common for him to work hard with a non-stop. He wasn’t aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning, which was a sort of alarm. And then what happened? He had a week’s leave during which time he read novels, listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach, which has enabled Richard to return to work again.(理查德是一位非常成功的商人。他经常不停地努力工作。直到有一天早上睡过头,他才意识到自己可能会精疲力竭或早逝,这是一种警钟。然后发生了什么?他请了一周假,其间他读小说、听音乐,并和妻子在海滩上散步,这使理查德得以再次回到工作岗位)”可知,第一段讲述了一个成功的商人理查德不间断地工作直到累到早晨没有按时醒来,才意识到自己的问题,于是离开工作去休假,结合第二段中的“In our modern life, we have lost the rhythm between action and rest.(在现代生活中,我们已经失去了行动和休息之间的节奏)”提出了本文的主题:人们只工作,不会休息,因此推断第一段的作用是引出文章的话题。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。由第一段中的“He wasn’t aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning, which was a sort of alarm. And then what happened? He had a week’s leave during which time he read novels, listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach, which has enabled Richard to return to work again.(直到有一天早上睡过头,他才意识到自己可能会精疲力竭或早逝,这是一种alarm。然后发生了什么?他请了一周假,其间他读小说、听音乐,并和妻子在海滩上散步,这使理查德得以再次回到工作岗位)”可知,理查德没有意识到自己会疲惫,或者会早逝,直到有一天睡过了头,which指代上文的内容,因此推断这次睡过头是一个危险的警告,提醒了理查德应该去休假,alarm指的是“危险的警告”。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中的“The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, and to be unable to find time to relax-this has become the model of a successful life.(我们越忙,我们自己看来似乎我们就越重要,我们认为,对别人也越重要。没有时间陪朋友和家人,没有时间放松—这已经成为成功生活的典范)”可知,一个成功的人被认为是一个忙于工作没时间休息的人。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由第四段“Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We miss the guide telling us where to go, the food providing us with strength, the quiet giving us wisdom.(因为我们不休息,我们就会迷失方向。我们就错过导游告诉我们该去哪里,食物给我们力量,安静给我们智慧)”和最后一段中的“Rest is s spiritual and biological need(休息是精神和生理上的需要)”及最后一段“In fact, “Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply permission to rest; it is a rule to obey and a principle to follow.(事实上,“记住安息日”不仅仅是允许你休息:它是要遵守的规则,是要遵循的原则)”以及全文内容可知,本文主要讲述了不要只是记住工作,也要学会休息,要平衡工作和休息。故选A项。

If you are planning to do exercise regularly, or you’re doing it now, then listen up!(如果你抽出时间来锻炼,那确实是一件好事!在如此忙碌的生活中,很难找到时间去锻炼。如果你计划定期锻炼,或者你现在正在锻炼,那么听好了!)”可知,前文讲述锻炼是一件好事,并且准备发表观点,根据后文内容可知,本文主要讲述早起锻炼的好处,所以G项“Working out in the morning provides additional benefits other than keeping fit.(早上锻炼除了保持健康还有其他好处)”提出本文主题,承接上文,引出下文,符合文意。故选G项。

【20题详解】
根据前文“You will pay more attention to your diet. If you work out bright and early in the morning, you will be more likely to choose healthy food throughout the day.(你会更注意你的饮食。如果你在清晨锻炼,你将更有可能选择健康的食物一整天)”可知,本段讲述了早起锻炼对饮食上的好处,所以D项“Who wants to waste a good workout by eating junk food?(谁想浪费一个好的锻炼时间去吃垃圾食品呢?)”符合本段主题。故选D项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了唐装的起源、文化含义及现实影响。
【51题详解】
考查动词的时态和语态。句意:“唐装”这一名称是数十年前由海外华人创造的。根据句中的时间状语decades ago可知,应用一般过去时;主语The word of Tang suit和动词create之间是被动关系,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语为单数名词,be动词用was。故填was created。
【52题详解】
考查介词。句意:作为中国历史上最繁荣强盛的朝代,唐朝(618-907)在世界上声名远播,以至于外国人将海外华人称为“唐人”,将他们居住的地方称为“唐人街”(字面意思为“唐人街”),并将他们穿的衣服称为“唐装”。此处表示“作为”,应用介词as,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填As。
