专题04 阅读理解 记叙文及应用文 记叙文 主题01 人与社会——历史社会与文化 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市西青区杨柳青第一中学·期中） In a golden field, a lion stands and bathed in the warmth of the sun. With a group of birds and a distant tower, the artwork is titled Lion and Beyond. This heartwarming creation is just one aspect of the imaginative world of Zhang Mingxiang, a 26-year-old grassroots artist from a village in Shandon g Province. With a unique touch, Zhang’s artworks often draw thoughts from everyday moments and puns (双关语) based on Chinese pinyin. Because of his heartwarming descriptions, his creations have got more than 6 million followers on several social media platforms and sold more than 60,000 pieces on the video platform BiliBili. However, Zhang’s path to art was not smooth. He was born in a village where his father made a living as a hairdresser and by renting out comic books (漫画书). Zhang’s interest in painting came from the pictures in those comic books. At the age of 6, Zhang began to teach himself to draw. He used red bricks (砖) to practice drawing on walls due to the lack of money. Despite facing difficulties, including a disability caused by an injury at the age of 11, Zhang was still crazy about drawing. “Today’s youths have their own thoughts and are good at expressing themselves. I believe my art is popular because people can see themselves in it. Many followers say my work speaks to them personally,” Zhang said. Zhang’s life also got improved by selling paintings. His dreams, however, are even bigger. “My goal is to share my works with more people. Many of my paintings reflect my journey of overcoming difficulties,” he said. Zhang hopes to work with interesting brands to encourage more young people to go after their dreams. 126．How does the author introduce the topic? A．By telling a life story. B．By describing an artwork. C．By referring to memories. D．By presenting natural scenery. 127．What is a special point of Zhang’s works? A．Being written especially for children. B．Caring for the natural environment. C．Showing respect for famous artworks. D．Reflecting Chinese culture. 128．What can we know about Zhang from his childhood experience? A．He painted at the cost of his study. B．His father guided him into painting. C．He drew under challenging conditions. D．His injury inspired his love for painting. 129．What does the public probably think of Zhang’s works? A．Touching. B．Confusing. C．Imaginative. D．Competitive. 130．What message does Zhang’s story convey? A．Facts speak louder than words. B．Time and tide wait for no man. C．A good beginning is half the battle. D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. Passage 2 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市南开区天津市南开中学·期中） Born with a disability in her right leg, Mei faced numerous challenges in her daily life. Nonetheless Mei refused to let her disability define her. From a young age, Mei harbored a deep passion for painting. With the support of her loving family, she transformed her wheelchair into a mobile easel (画架), it allowing her to create art wherever she went. Every stroke (笔画) of her brush was like a witness to her growth. As Mei grew older, her talent attracted the attention of the local community. Encouraged by their support, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming a professional artist. However, Mei soon encountered doubt from others, even her childhood best friends, who questioned her ability to succeed in the art world. Instead of backing down, Mei pressed on, expressing her frustration in her artwork. Her paintings were beautiful, reflecting the beauty she saw in the world around her. Through her art, Mei found a sense of purpose, proving to herself and others that disabilities could not put out the fire of creativity. Eventually, Mei received an invitation to showcase her artwork at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Wild with joy, she was unsure if she was ready to face the judgement of the art world. With the support of her family and friends, Mei decided to seize the opportunity. The show was a great success. Through Mei’s journey, she was able to reach thousands of other people with disabilities who would benefit from her experience. That’s why she is still pressing on and fighting — not because she’s broken, but because she not only has an opportunity to fully achieve her potential as a disabled person but also has the will to inspire everyone else around her. 131．What did Mei face when she decided to become an artist?

From journaling daily for over a year, I have found that writing daily has allowed me to perfectly remember a feeling. My journaling journey began when I took a creative writing class at my local community college. Our teacher had a required journaling element (部分) in which we had to buy a notebook and aim to write every day about anything we wished. At first, writing daily was a boring task. I was always trying to find things to write about. I wrote on what I did that day or some news I found online. People say it takes 21 days to form a habit, and I can prove that they are correct. After the first month or so, I would wake up every morning looking forward to making my cup of coffee, sitting down at my desk and writing down everything that happened the previous day. And I have been doing it ever since. Passing the one year mark, I have now filled up almost five journals. This morning, I reread every single one of them and was moved to tears. I can see the ways in which I have changed and grown as a person. Many people complain that they have nothing to write about or they simply don’t have the time to pick up the practice of journaling. I am here to tell you to banish thoughts that your life is not interesting enough or you don’t have enough time-you have thoughts, emotions and experiences that are worthwhile. One day, you will want to remember something as simple as how you felt when you woke up one Sunday morning. 22．Why does the author mention photographs in paragraph 1? A．To show the importance of recording B．To bring up the topic of journaling. C．To encourage readers to practice photographing. D．To prove that photographing differs from journaling. 23．The author began journaling because ________. A．it was the task of her writing class B．she had interesting things to write about C．she wanted to improve her writing skills D．her teacher asked her to find a way to practice writing 24．At the beginning, the author thought writing daily was ________. A．meaningful B．fresh C．creative D．difficult 25．How did the author find journaling at the end of the first month? A．It was eye-opening B．It was a very boring task. C．It was something she expected to do. D．It was more difficult than she had thought. 26．What does the underlined word “banish” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Go over. B．Figure out. C．Drive away. D．Write down. Passage 2 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市滨海新区大港油田第一中学·期中） With a thirst for a new challenge, I decided to begin my language journey and my only regret is that I didn’t start earlier. Since starting to learn, I have made good progress. The Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) is a test of Chinese language for non-native speakers. In July 2020, I passed my HSK3 exam with a score of 100 percent. I am now almost ready to start HSK5. Learning to speak Chinese isn’t as insurmountable as I once thought. When I speak to native (当地的) speakers in Chinese, they almost always understand me. I also find it not too difficult to remember characters and I am now even able to write over 400 characters. I find studying the language relaxing and worthwhile, particularly writing the characters. The thing I find most challenging is listening because native speakers talk at such a speed (速度). I can’t always understand what’s been said, but my weekly online language exchanges help with this greatly. Despite my progress, it has taken a lot of hard work. Furthermore, there is a long way to go before I reach my goal of fluency. The key to progress is to be patient . The satisfaction (满意) that comes from simple things like ordering food (点餐) in Chinese, buying things on the Internet or communicating with a taxi driver makes all the hard work worth it. My biggest takeaway from learning Chinese is that it’s not only double but can also be enjoyable. Learning Chinese not only helped me in day-to-day life, but deepened my cultural understanding of such a colorful and beautiful country. Considering where I am now, compared to two years ago, as long as I keep studying hard, I can image a time when I’ll be able to read famous Chinese novels not in English but in the original text. So, to all my non-Chinese friends, I always say “Don’t give up. Embrace (拥抱) the challenge.” 32．What is the author’s regret? A．He had a new challenge. B．He decided to begin his language journey. C．He didn’t start learning Chinese earlier D．He passed his HSK3 exam. 33．What does the underlined word “insurmountable” mean in paragraph 2? A．upset. B．Possible. C．Comfortable. D．Difficult. 34．Which one is the most challenging for the author? A．Writing characters. B．Taking part in HSK exams. C．Listening to the native speaking. D．Speaking to a taxi driver. 35．Why does the author think learning Chinese is satisfying? A．It can make the author proud. B．It makes the author know more Chinese characters. C．It can be useful in daily life. D．It makes the author more competitive. 36．Which can be a suitable title for the text? A．Passing exams isn’t a piece of cake B．Learning Chinese isn’t unbeatable C．Explore the historical and cultural country D．Deepen understanding of Chinese culture Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市河北区·期中） I’m not a fan of patchwork quilts (拼缝被子). While I appreciate the feelings and effort put into making them, I usually don’t really care about the end result. Surprisingly, however, there is a small patchwork quilt in my home. This quilt originally belonged to my mother. In her later years, after my father passed away, she joined a weekly ‘book club’ with some women from the neighborhood. In fact, it was more of an excuse to get together and drink coffee. One of the ladies, Emily, was skilled in handicrafts and she made my mother a small quilt. For years, this quilt sat folded on a chair in my mom’s living room. It went with her when she moved to a small, one-bedroom suite at an assisted living facility (辅助生活机构). I never saw my mother use it throughout all those years. During one of my visits, I playfully teased (取笑) my mom about her never using the quilt and asked her why she kept it. She said it was because it was a gift from Emily. I questioned further, as she was not particularly close to Emily and did not even like the quilt’s design. Her response remained the same: Because it was from Emily. After thinking this over for several days, I came to realize that the quilt’s value did not lie in its appearance or in its maker, but rather in the significance it held for my mother about neighborliness, community and caring for one another. I inherited (继承) the quilt more than a decade ago and it has remained folded on a shelf ever since. My plan is to one day gift it to my daughter, but I won’t pressure her to keep it, although I’m secretly hoping she will. Patchwork quilts hold stories. The tales we attach to what we see and do enrich our lives, turning the ordinary into something magical. 37．What was the author’s attitude towards patchwork quilts at the beginning? A．The author was eager to learn about them. B．The author didn’t care much for them. C．The author was very fond of them. D．The author admired them greatly. 38．What was the true purpose of the author’s mother attending the “book club”? A．To socialize with neighbors. B．To share handcrafting skills. C．To learn how to make coffee. D．To discuss the books they read. 39．Why did the author’s mother keep the quilt for years without using it? A．She found it too beautiful to use. B．She planned to give it to her daughter. C．It reminded her of the weekly book club. D．It represented the values of community and care. 40．What did the author do with the quilt after inheriting it? A．The author gave it away to a friend. B．The author kept it folded on a shelf. C．The author used it frequently. D．The author redecorated it. 41．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．The stories can make our ordinary life more exciting. B．Patchwork quilts are valuable because they are handmade. C．Ordinary objects can become magical through the stories we tell. D．The craftsmanship of patchwork quilts is what makes them special. 主题02 人与自我——做人与做事 Passage 1 （2023-2024学年高一上·天津市耀华中学·期中） On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown.Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You’re nervous and that’s okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied (否认) it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends. On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn’t think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right. Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging. Since then, I’ve been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn’t much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions. It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out-of-class activities because you’ll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best,even if it isn’t straight A’s. Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school. 70．What does the underlined phrase “rise to” mean in the passage? A．stand for B．deal with C．turn to D．lift up 71．After his first week at school, the author . A．adapted to the new school little by little B．was still not used to the schedule in high school C．found high school not so challenging as he had imagined D．ran for monitor of his class against three other students 72．According to the passage, the secret of the author’s success lies mainly in . A．making more friends B．getting more A’s at school C．being who he really is D．joining in out-of-class activities 主题03 人与社会 历史社会与文化 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市第四十七中学·期中） One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick’s life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery (手术) hours after he was born in 2011. But after the operation, Susan burst into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn son’s back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages. “There were rolling hills of snow, a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom,” she recalled. It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family. It was a moment I’ll never forget.” Susan soon learned the artist was her son’s surgeon, Robert Parry, who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid-1980s during his internship (实习期) at a children’s medical center, where he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children’s bandages. “My first reaction was, ‘What is he doing? Hey, that’s kind of neat,’” Parry recalled. “I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone’s attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.” Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients’ personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isn’t much he hasn’t drawn. Most kids want super heroes sports team logos or princesses, while babies often receive scenes with flowers, trees and sea creatures. During the last 30 years, Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches (伤缝线) of more than 10,000 children. “During a time of stress for families, it’s nice to be able to help them smile and laugh,” Parry said. “This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.” For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child’s life and except for his drawings on bandages, “they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it,” he said. He’s not ready to retire, but he’s found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come. “I’ve taken up knitting (编织), Parry said. “Hats, sweaters, gloves — I enjoy it all. But mostly, I enjoy giving everything away.” 91．Susan burst into tears after her baby’s operation because she was ________. A．stressed B．unsatisfied C．moved D．heartbroken 92．How did Parry get the idea of decorating children’s bandages? A．He was encouraged by his patients. B．He was required to learn the skill during his internship. C．He was inspired by his colleague. D．He was encouraged by Susan to show his genius for art. 93．Parry’s artworks during the last 30 years show that he ________. A．took into consideration the tastes of individual patients B．knew more about his patients than their parents C．devoted himself more to art than to medicine D．created a large number of works beyond his expectations 94．What does Parry expect to achieve with his artworks? A．To get a reward from the artistic circle. B．To lift the spirits of his patients and their parents. C．To make a difference in his dull medical career. D．To win the admiration of his colleagues. 95．What can we learn about Parry from the last two paragraphs of the passage? A．He is eager to show others his new skills. B．He is more interested in knitting than drawing. C．He is looking forward to life after retirement. D．He enjoys trying new ways to help others. Passage 2 (2024-2025学年高一上 ·天津市第一百中学等校·期中) Heman Bekele, a 14-year-old ninth grader from Annandale, Virginia, has been named “America’s top young scientist” after developing a bar of soap (肥皂) that could be useful in the treatment of melanoma (黑色素瘤). “Treating cancer, one bar of soap at a time,” he said. “I have always been interested in biology and technology, and this challenge gave me the perfect platform to show my ideas.” He presented his idea for a soap — the “skin cancer treating soap” — made from compounds (化合物) that could reactivate dendritic cells (树突细胞) that protect human skin, enabling them to fight cancer cells. In a video to the 3M Young Scientist Challenge, Bekele said “he believed that young minds can make a positive impact on the world”. Bekele’s idea came from living in Ethiopia to the age of four where, he told The Washington Post, he had seen people keep working under the hot sun, “I wanted to make my idea something that not only was great in terms of science but also could be accessible (可用的) to as many people as possible.” His teacher at 3M, Deborah Isabelle, described the teen as “focused on making the world a better place for people who he hasn’t even met yet”. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), skin cancer is the most common of all cancers, with melanoma taking up only 1% but causing the majority of skin cancer deaths. The society says the rates (率) of melanoma have been rising rapidly over past years, particularly among women over 50, and it is more than 20 times more common in white people than in black people. At the same time, the death rates for melanoma have gone down in the last ten years due to better treatments. After winning the award, Bekele said he hoped to turn the soap into a “symbol of hope, accessibility and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach of all”. 96．From which paragraph can we learn how the soap works to treat melanoma? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2 C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 97．What inspired Heman Bekele to develop the soap? A．His strong interest in technology. B．His personal experience in Ethiopia. C．His desire to win the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. D．His concerns about the rising rates of melanoma in the US. 98．What do we know about melanoma according to the ACS? A．It is the most common type of cancer. B．It has led to thousands of deaths over the past ten years. C．It makes up 1% of all skin cancer cases. D．It is more common in Black people than in white people. 99．How does Heman Bekele view the future of his soap? A．It will be widely recognized soon. B．It will change the skincare industry. C．It will need further study on its effectiveness. D．It will make skin cancer treatment more accessible. 100．Which of the following can best describe Heman Bekele? A．Creative and caring. B．Helpful and humorous. C．Hard-working and honest. D．Strong-willed and serious. 应用文 主题01 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市河东区·期中） Summer reading programs Summer reading programs are a great way to encourage your children to read over the summer months.

Passage 2 （2023-2024学年高一上·天津市第四十七中学·期中） From United States’ Miami to South China’s high-tech city Shenzhen, The Lonely Planet released a list of top 10 cities which are worth visiting. Those places include second place Shenzhen, China, Novi Sad, Serbia in third place; Miami, Florida in fourth place, and Kathmandu, Nepal rounding out the top five. Let’s have a look at some of these attractive places. Copenhagen, Denmark With its modern design, 15 Michellin-starred restaurants and highly bike-friendly culture, it is not surprising that Denmark’s capital has topped The Lonely Planet’s top 10 cities list. Copenhagen’s street food business is developing fast in Refshaleon, a former industrial area with a food market, Reffen. Novi Sad, Serbia While Novi Sad is not as noted as the capital of Belgrade, it’s much more fashionable. It’s home to the country’s EXIT festival, which is held each July at the 18th century-era Petrovaradin Fortress. The festival brings visitors an exciting music and art scene and a youthful atmosphere (氛围). 2019 European Youth Capital was held in Novi Sad. It was a practice run for 2021, when the city got the important title of European Capital of Culture. Kathmandu, Nepal Three years after it was hit by a powerful earthquake, Kathmandu is welcoming visitors to a city which is much quieter, by design. With cars banned (禁止) from the historic center and motor horns (喇叭) banned across the Kathmandu Valley, it’s much quieter than it used to be in the past. Shenzhen, China Splendid China Folk Culture Village (锦绣中华中国民俗文化村) in Shenzhen is a miniature (缩影) park. Over 100 major tourist attractions have been miniaturized and laid out according to the map of China. There are cars and trains to transport visitors around the park, making it possible to visit the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Three Gorges Dam, the Potala Palace and the Terracotta Army in one day. Some of the shows are only performed on weekends. 141．In which city can you enjoy highly bike-friendly culture? A．Copenhagen, Denmark. B．Novi Sad, Serbia. C．Kathmandu, Nepal.

Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市第一中学·期中） Travel is sometimes inconvenient and impossible for some people. However, museums around the world are digitalizing (使数字化) their collections, enabling people to tour the museums from afar. The British Museum, London The British Museum contains objects from around the world, including the Rosetta Stone, with three versions of a text that helped researchers learn to read ancient Egyptian (古埃及语). The Great Court’s ceiling, in the middle of the museum, is composed of 3212 pieces of glass, none of which are alike. The virtual tour of the museum offers a 360-degree view of the room, allowing visitors to look at every piece. The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles County This museum, with locations in two different places, features art going back to The Neolithic Period. Its virtual tour, accessible through Google Arts & Culture, offers views of more recent works, including some by Van Gogh and Renoir. Another platform, Xplorlt, also features views of some of the museum’s outdoor spaces. MASP, São Paulo The first modern museum in Brazil, the Museu de Arte de São Paulo includes art from the 14th to the 20th centuries. The paintings, which are placed on glass panels, appear to be floating in mid-air. This setup, included in the virtual tour shows, makes the art appear almost magical. National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea This Korean museum includes four branches in different cities and features works of art from Korea and around the world. The art includes a variety of media such as print, sculpture and photography. There are also online exhibitions such as “Artists in Their Times” which traces trends in Korean art since the late 1970s. 151．What can we learn about The British Museum?

Parents and booksellers tend to blame (责备) the growing appeal of online entertainment and games, but whom or what should be really blamed? Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, said in a report that although the parents’ intentions (意图) are good, they often stop their children from picking up the reading habit. Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read. It is turning children off. They should let them choose. My first tip is that reading should never be described with“work words” which make it seem like a chore (琐事). Too many families have fallen into the trap of regarding reading as a “good” activity and online game playing as “bad”. Instead, it is important to let reading be connected with pleasure and achievement, just as game playing is. The second tip is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller. while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the children, when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the children will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear. The third tip for parents is that they do not attempt to limit books to one age range. Parents should not worry whether a title looks too young or too old for a child. If a book has caught their attention, then let them take it and make up their own mind. Children often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. My father once compelled me to read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was 16 and I have never read another Clancy since. Reading is a personal experience. It should all be about patience and believe that books are sold to one person, one at a time. 52．According to Michael Norris, who makes the children lose interest in reading? A．Game designers. B．Entertainers. C．Booksellers. D．Parents. 53．In his first tip, the author suggests parents help their children ________. A．learn to do chores at home B．choose good books to read C．avoid thinking of reading as an unpleasant task D．spend less time in playing games 54．Why should children directly talk to booksellers? A．They can choose what they really want. B．They can get a good price. C．They can learn to spend money wisely. D．They can give advice to booksellers. 55．What does the underlined word “compelled” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Allowed. B．Advised C．Forced D．Encouraged 56．The author’s own example in Paragraph 5 shows that ________. A．his father’s way of education is not suitable B．parents shouldn’t limit books according to age range C．parents always choose wrong books for their children D．Tom Clancy’s works are not suitable for teenagers Passage 2 （2024~2025学年高一上·天津市部分区·期中） Exciting Sites for Your Children in Orlando ★Universal Orlando Resort Location: 1000 Universal Studios Plz Contact: 14073638000 Open Hours: Monday to Sunday from 9 AM to 6 PM The world’s favorite films and film stars come to life here and 40 amazing and amusing rides, shows and attractions are presented. ★Sea World Orlando Location: 7007 Sea World Dr Contact: 14073513600 Open Hours: Monday to Sunday from 9 AM to 5 PM Many new attractions and rides have been added to the original fun including a laser-fireworks-water show and high-tech thrill rides.

With a group of birds and a distant tower, the artwork is titled Lion and Beyond. This heartwarming creation is just one aspect of the imaginative world of Zhang Mingxiang, a 26-year-old grassroots artist from a village in Shandon g Province. With a unique touch, Zhang’s artworks often draw thoughts from everyday moments and puns (双关语) based on Chinese pinyin. Because of his heartwarming descriptions, his creations have got more than 6 million followers on several social media platforms and sold more than 60,000 pieces on the video platform BiliBili. However, Zhang’s path to art was not smooth. He was born in a village where his father made a living as a hairdresser and by renting out comic books (漫画书). Zhang’s interest in painting came from the pictures in those comic books. At the age of 6, Zhang began to teach himself to draw. He used red bricks (砖) to practice drawing on walls due to the lack of money. Despite facing difficulties, including a disability caused by an injury at the age of 11, Zhang was still crazy about drawing. “Today’s youths have their own thoughts and are good at expressing themselves. I believe my art is popular because people can see themselves in it. Many followers say my work speaks to them personally,” Zhang said. Zhang’s life also got improved by selling paintings. His dreams, however, are even bigger. “My goal is to share my works with more people. Many of my paintings reflect my journey of overcoming difficulties,” he said. Zhang hopes to work with interesting brands to encourage more young people to go after their dreams. 126．How does the author introduce the topic? A．By telling a life story. B．By describing an artwork. C．By referring to memories. D．By presenting natural scenery. 127．What is a special point of Zhang’s works? A．Being written especially for children. B．Caring for the natural environment. C．Showing respect for famous artworks. D．Reflecting Chinese culture. 128．What can we know about Zhang from his childhood experience? A．He painted at the cost of his study. B．His father guided him into painting. C．He drew under challenging conditions. D．His injury inspired his love for painting. 129．What does the public probably think of Zhang’s works? A．Touching. B．Confusing. C．Imaginative. D．Competitive. 130．What message does Zhang’s story convey? A．Facts speak louder than words. B．Time and tide wait for no man. C．A good beginning is half the battle. D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. 【答案】126．B 127．D 128．C 129．A 130．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了画家张明祥，他的画作从日常生活中取材，加上巧妙的双关语作为标题，画风搞怪独特，在网络上广受年轻人追捧。 126．推理判断题。根据第一段“In a golden field, a lion stands and bathed in the warmth of the sun. With a group of birds and a distant tower, the artwork is titled Lion and Beyond.(在一片金色的田野中，一头狮子立于其中，沐浴着温暖的阳光。加上一群飞鸟和远处的塔楼，这一作品被命名为《狮和远方》)”可推知，在首段中，作者通过对张明祥的画作《狮和远方》的描述引入了主题。故选B。 127．细节理解题。根据第二段“With a unique touch, Zhang’s artworks often draw thoughts from everyday moments and puns (双关语) based on Chinese pinyin.(张的作品有着独特的风格，往往从日常生活中汲取灵感，并加以汉语拼音为基础的双关语)”可知，张明祥的画作都会以独特的方式命名，即运用汉语拼音的谐音字，这体现了中国文化。故选D。 128．细节理解题。根据第三段“At the age of 6, Zhang began to teach himself to draw. He used red bricks (砖) to practice drawing on walls due to the lack of money. Despite facing difficulties, including a disability caused by an injury at the age of 11, Zhang was still crazy about drawing.(6岁时，张开始自学画画。因为缺钱他只能用红砖在墙上练习画画。尽管面临着种种困难，包括在11岁时因伤导致的残疾，张依然对画画保持狂热)”可知，张明祥小时候尽管条件艰苦但对画画热情始终不减。故选C。 129．推理判断题。根据第三段中引述张明祥的话“Today’s youths have their own thoughts and are good at expressing themselves. I believe my art is popular because people can see themselves in it. Many followers say my work speaks to them personally(今天的年轻人有自己的想法，善于表达自我。我相信我的艺术受到欢迎，是因为人们可以在其中看到自己。许多追随者说我的作品触及了他们的内心)”可推知，当下的年轻人们能在张的画作中看到自己，甚至是触及了心灵。故选A。 130．推理判断题。根据最后一段““My goal is to share my works with more people. Many of my paintings reflect my journey of overcoming difficulties, ” he said. Zhang hopes to work with interesting brands to encourage more young people to go after their dreams.(他说：“我的目标是与更多的人分享我的作品。我的许多画作都反映了我克服困难的旅程。”张希望与有趣的品牌合作，鼓励更多的年轻人追求梦想)”可知，张明祥自己曾经在困难重重中坚持对画画的热爱，最终获得成功，他正是想通过自己的作品把这种“有志者，事竟成”的信念传达出去，鼓励人们追逐自己的梦想。故选D。 Passage 2 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市南开区天津市南开中学·期中） Born with a disability in her right leg, Mei faced numerous challenges in her daily life. Nonetheless Mei refused to let her disability define her. From a young age, Mei harbored a deep passion for painting. With the support of her loving family, she transformed her wheelchair into a mobile easel (画架), it allowing her to create art wherever she went. Every stroke (笔画) of her brush was like a witness to her growth. As Mei grew older, her talent attracted the attention of the local community. Encouraged by their support, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming a professional artist. However, Mei soon encountered doubt from others, even her childhood best friends, who questioned her ability to succeed in the art world. Instead of backing down, Mei pressed on, expressing her frustration in her artwork. Her paintings were beautiful, reflecting the beauty she saw in the world around her. Through her art, Mei found a sense of purpose, proving to herself and others that disabilities could not put out the fire of creativity. Eventually, Mei received an invitation to showcase her artwork at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Wild with joy, she was unsure if she was ready to face the judgement of the art world. With the support of her family and friends, Mei decided to seize the opportunity. The show was a great success. Through Mei’s journey, she was able to reach thousands of other people with disabilities who would benefit from her experience. That’s why she is still pressing on and fighting — not because she’s broken, but because she not only has an opportunity to fully achieve her potential as a disabled person but also has the will to inspire everyone else around her. 131．What did Mei face when she decided to become an artist? A．Apologies from her best friends. B．Distrust of her ability to succeed. C．Attention to her painting crafts. D．Congratulations on her instant success. 132．How did Mei feel when she got invited by the Guggenheim Museum? A．Saddened. B．Astonished. C．Uncertain.

C．She decided to become a professional artist at a young age. D．She survived the judgement of the art world with the support of her family and friends. 135．What would be the best title of the passage? A．A Challenging Life: Mei’s Story of Determination B．From Failure to Victory: Mei’s Valuable Life Lesson C．Rejecting Limits: Mei’s Story and Her Artistic Success D．The Journey of Inspiration: Mei’s Determination to Help Others 【答案】131．B 132．C 133．B 134．B 135．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个残疾女孩勇于追求自己的梦想，想成为专业画家，并且受到纽约一家博物馆的邀请展示她的作品，结果获得了成功，向世界证实了她的才华，激励着其他残疾人士。 131．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Encouraged by their support, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming a professional artist. However, Mei soon encountered doubt from others, even her childhood best friends, who questioned her ability to succeed in the art world.(在他们的支持下，她决定追求成为一名职业艺术家的梦想。然而，梅很快就受到了其他人的质疑，甚至是她儿时最好的朋友，他们质疑她在艺术界取得成功的能力)”可知，她想成为画家时，很多人怀疑她的能力，不相信她会成功。B项中的distrust和原文questioned呼应。故选B项。 132．细节理解题。根据第五段“Eventually, Mei received an invitation to showcase her artwork at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Wild with joy, she was unsure if she was ready to face the judgement of the art world.(最终，梅收到了在纽约古根海姆博物馆展示她作品的邀请。她欣喜若狂，不确定自己是否准备好面对艺术界的评判)”可知，受到邀请时，她很开心，但是对于是否接受邀请去展示她的作品感到不确定。unsure与uncertain意思一致。故选C项。 133．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Through Mei’s journey, she was able to reach thousands of other people with disabilities who would benefit from her experience. That’s why she is still pressing on and fighting — not because she’s broken, but because she not only has an opportunity to fully achieve her potential as a disabled person but also has the will to inspire everyone else around her.(通过此次旅程，她能够接触到成千上万的其他残疾人，他们将从她的经历中受益。这就是为什么她仍然在坚持和奋斗——不是因为她是残疾的，而是因为她不仅有机会充分发挥自己作为残疾人的潜力，而且有意愿激励身边的每个人)”可知，梅继续前进的原因是她愿意激励他人。故选B项。 134．细节理解题。根据第二段“From a young age, Mei harbored a deep passion for painting. With the support of her loving family, she transformed her wheelchair into a mobile easel (画架), it allowing her to create art wherever she went.(在爱她的家人的支持下，她把轮椅变成了一个移动画架，让她无论走到哪里都能创作艺术)”及倒数第二段“With the support of her family and friends, Mei decided to seize the opportunity.(在家人和朋友的支持下，梅决定抓住这个机会)”可知，在她的成功中她的家人起到了积极的作用。故选B项。 135．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Born with a disability in her right leg, Mei faced numerous challenges in her daily life. Nonetheless Mei refused to let her disability define her.(梅天生右腿残疾，在日常生活中面临着许多挑战。尽管如此，梅拒绝让残疾定义她)”及最后一段“The show was a great success. Through Mei’s journey, she was able to reach thousands of other people with disabilities who would benefit from her experience. That’s why she is still pressing on and fighting--not because she’s broken, but because she not only has an opportunity to fully achieve her potential as a disabled person but also has the will to inspire everyone else around her.(展出非常成功。通过此次旅程，她能够接触到成千上万的其他残疾人，他们将从她的经历中受益。这就是为什么她还在努力奋斗的原因——不是因为她是残疾的，而是因为她不仅有机会充分发挥自己作为残疾人的潜力，而且有意愿激励周围的人)”并综合全文可知，本文讲述了残疾女孩梅拒绝让身体缺陷限制自己的人生，勇敢追求自己成为画家的梦想，她受邀在一家博物馆展出自己的作品，展出很成功，她的艺术才华得到认可，她的故事也激励着他人，C项“拒绝限制：梅的故事与艺术成就”。故选C项。 Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市宁河区芦台第二中学·期中） This is a story about a monkey.

He also helped the old man in many other ways (猴子很聪明。当鸟儿飞到花园里时，他就把它们赶走。他还在许多其他方面帮助老人)”可知，这只猴子能为老人做很多事情。故选B。 112．细节理解题。由文章第二段中“One hot afternoon in summer, the old man was asleep in his chair in the garden. A fly (苍蝇) came and sat on the end of the old man’s nose.

A fly (苍蝇) came and sat on the end of the old man’s nose. The monkey drove it away. Soon the fly came back and sat on the old man’s nose again. Again the monkey drove it away. Again and again, the monkey became very angry. (一个炎热的夏天下午，老人在花园里的椅子上睡着了。一只苍蝇飞来，停在老人的鼻尖上。猴子把它赶走了。不久，苍蝇又飞回来，落在老人的鼻子上。猴子又把它赶走了。一次又一次，猴子变得非常生气)”可知，猴子每次都把苍蝇赶走，但苍蝇一次又一次地回来，这让猴子生气。故选D。 114．推理判断题。由文章第二段中“When the fly was on the old man’s nose again, the monkey hit it hard with the stone.  The fly fell off, but the old man’s nose was broken. (当苍蝇再次落在老人的鼻子上时，猴子用石头狠狠地打了它一下。苍蝇掉了下来，但老人的鼻子被打断了)”可知，故事的结果是苍蝇掉了下来，但老人的鼻子被打断了，可推测老人醒了过来。故选D。 115．细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“Well, many people, even our friends sometimes do things just like the monkey. They do things too quickly, but they don’t think much before they do. Maybe they sometimes bring us trouble, though they mean to do something good. (嗯，很多人，甚至我们的朋友有时做的事情就像猴子一样。他们做事太快，但在行动之前他们不会考虑太多。也许他们有时给我们带来麻烦，虽然他们的意思是做一些好事)”可知，我们可以从这个故事中学到在做事情之前要仔细思考，不要过于急躁。故选C。 主题01 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市五区县重点校联考·期中） Photographs allow one to perfectly remember how a certain memory looked in great detail. From journaling daily for over a year, I have found that writing daily has allowed me to perfectly remember a feeling. My journaling journey began when I took a creative writing class at my local community college. Our teacher had a required journaling element (部分) in which we had to buy a notebook and aim to write every day about anything we wished. At first, writing daily was a boring task. I was always trying to find things to write about. I wrote on what I did that day or some news I found online. People say it takes 21 days to form a habit, and I can prove that they are correct. After the first month or so, I would wake up every morning looking forward to making my cup of coffee, sitting down at my desk and writing down everything that happened the previous day. And I have been doing it ever since. Passing the one year mark, I have now filled up almost five journals. This morning, I reread every single one of them and was moved to tears. I can see the ways in which I have changed and grown as a person. Many people complain that they have nothing to write about or they simply don’t have the time to pick up the practice of journaling. I am here to tell you to banish thoughts that your life is not interesting enough or you don’t have enough time-you have thoughts, emotions and experiences that are worthwhile. One day, you will want to remember something as simple as how you felt when you woke up one Sunday morning. 22．Why does the author mention photographs in paragraph 1? A．To show the importance of recording B．To bring up the topic of journaling. C．To encourage readers to practice photographing. D．To prove that photographing differs from journaling. 23．The author began journaling because ________. A．it was the task of her writing class B．she had interesting things to write about C．she wanted to improve her writing skills D．her teacher asked her to find a way to practice writing 24．At the beginning, the author thought writing daily was ________. A．meaningful B．fresh C．creative D．difficult 25．How did the author find journaling at the end of the first month? A．It was eye-opening B．It was a very boring task. C．It was something she expected to do. D．It was more difficult than she had thought. 26．What does the underlined word “banish” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Go over. B．Figure out. C．Drive away. D．Write down. 【答案】22．B 23．A 24．D 25．C 26．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者通过一年的日记写作经历，发现了日记写作对记忆和情感记录的重要性，并鼓励人们不要认为自己的生活不够有趣或没有时间而放弃日记写作。 22．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Photographs allow one to perfectly remember how a certain memory looked in great detail. From journaling daily for over a year, I have found that writing daily has allowed me to perfectly remember a feeling.(照片可以让人完美地记住某个记忆的详细外观。从一年多的日记写作中，我发现每天写作让我能够完美地记住一种感觉。)”可知，作者提到照片是为了引出下文关于日记写作的话题。故选B。 23．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“My journaling journey began when I took a creative writing class at my local community college. Our teacher had a required journaling element (部分) in which we had to buy a notebook and aim to write every day about anything we wished.(我的日记写作之旅始于我在当地社区大学参加的一个创意写作课程。我们的老师有一个必须的日记写作部分，要求我们买一本笔记本，并每天写下我们想要写的任何事情。)”可知，作者开始写日记是因为这是她的写作课程的任务。故选A。 24．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“At first, writing daily was a boring task.(起初，每天写作是一项无聊的任务。)”可知，作者认为每天写作很困难。故选D。 25．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“People say it takes 21 days to form a habit, and I can prove that they are correct. After the first month or so, I would wake up every morning looking forward to making my cup of coffee, sitting down at my desk and writing down everything that happened the previous day.(人们说养成一个习惯需要21天，我可以证明他们是对的。在第一个月左右之后，我每天早上醒来都会期待着泡一杯咖啡，坐在书桌前，写下前一天发生的所有事情。)”可知，作者在第一个月结束时发现写日记是期待做的事情。故选C。 26．词句猜测题。根据上文“Many people complain that they have nothing to write about or they simply don’t have the time to pick up the practice of journaling.(很多人抱怨他们没有东西可写，或者他们根本没有时间开始写日记。)”和下文“you have thoughts, emotions and experiences that are worthwhile.(你有值得记录的想法、情感和经历)”可知，要消除你的生活不够有趣或者你没有足够的时间这样的想法，由此可知，banish意为“消除、驱散”，因此答案是C（驱赶）。故选C。 Passage 2 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市滨海新区大港油田第一中学·期中） With a thirst for a new challenge, I decided to begin my language journey and my only regret is that I didn’t start earlier. Since starting to learn, I have made good progress. The Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) is a test of Chinese language for non-native speakers. In July 2020, I passed my HSK3 exam with a score of 100 percent. I am now almost ready to start HSK5. Learning to speak Chinese isn’t as insurmountable as I once thought. When I speak to native (当地的) speakers in Chinese, they almost always understand me. I also find it not too difficult to remember characters and I am now even able to write over 400 characters. I find studying the language relaxing and worthwhile, particularly writing the characters. The thing I find most challenging is listening because native speakers talk at such a speed (速度). I can’t always understand what’s been said, but my weekly online language exchanges help with this greatly. Despite my progress, it has taken a lot of hard work. Furthermore, there is a long way to go before I reach my goal of fluency. The key to progress is to be patient . The satisfaction (满意) that comes from simple things like ordering food (点餐) in Chinese, buying things on the Internet or communicating with a taxi driver makes all the hard work worth it. My biggest takeaway from learning Chinese is that it’s not only double but can also be enjoyable. Learning Chinese not only helped me in day-to-day life, but deepened my cultural understanding of such a colorful and beautiful country. Considering where I am now, compared to two years ago, as long as I keep studying hard, I can image a time when I’ll be able to read famous Chinese novels not in English but in the original text. So, to all my non-Chinese friends, I always say “Don’t give up. Embrace (拥抱) the challenge.” 32．What is the author’s regret? A．He had a new challenge. B．He decided to begin his language journey. C．He didn’t start learning Chinese earlier D．He passed his HSK3 exam. 33．What does the underlined word “insurmountable” mean in paragraph 2? A．upset. B．Possible. C．Comfortable. D．Difficult. 34．Which one is the most challenging for the author? A．Writing characters. B．Taking part in HSK exams. C．Listening to the native speaking. D．Speaking to a taxi driver. 35．Why does the author think learning Chinese is satisfying? A．It can make the author proud. B．It makes the author know more Chinese characters. C．It can be useful in daily life. D．It makes the author more competitive. 36．Which can be a suitable title for the text? A．Passing exams isn’t a piece of cake B．Learning Chinese isn’t unbeatable C．Explore the historical and cultural country D．Deepen understanding of Chinese culture 【答案】32．C 33．D 34．C 35．C 36．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是作者自己学习汉语的经历和感受。 32．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“With a thirst for a new challenge, I decided to begin my language journey and my only regret is that I didn’t start earlier.(怀着对新挑战的渴望，我决定开始我的语言之旅，我唯一的遗憾是没有早点开始)”可知，作者渴望新的挑战，决定开始语言之旅，唯一的遗憾是没有早点开始，所以，作者后悔的是没有早点开始学习汉语。故选C项 33．词义猜测题。根据划线词后的“When I speak to native (当地的) speakers in Chinese, they almost always understand me. I also find it not too difficult to remember characters and I am now even able to write over 400 characters.(当我和母语者用汉语交谈时，他们几乎都能理解我。我还发现记忆汉字没那么难，现在我甚至能写超过400个汉字了)”可知，作者现在发现学习说汉语并不是很难，结合划线单词所在的句子“Learning to speak Chinese isn’t as…as I once thought.(学习说汉语并不像我曾经想的一样……)”可知，作者之前应对学习说汉语有自己的想法，结合下文中介绍的作者学习说汉语的感受可知，此处指的是作者认为学习汉语并不像以前所想的那么的困难，所以划线单词的意思应与 “困难的”意义相近。故选D项。 34．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The thing I find most challenging is listening because native speakers talk at such a speed (速度).(我发现最具挑战的事是听力，因为母语者们语速如此之快)”可知，因为母语者说的语速很快，所以，作者认为学习汉语时最困难的部分是听母语者讲话。故选C项。 35．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The satisfaction (满意) that comes from simple things like ordering food (点餐) in Chinese, buying things on the Internet or communicating with a taxi driver makes all the hard work worth it.(一些小事带来的满足感，比如用中文点餐，在网上购物或是和出租车司机交流，让我感到所有的辛苦都是值得的)”可知，作者认为用中文点餐，在网上购物或者与出租车司机交流这些小事带来很多的满足感，由此可知，因为日常生活中能使用汉语，所以作者认为学习中文令他感到满足。故选C项。 36．主旨大意题。根据尾段中的“My biggest takeaway from learning Chinese is that it’s not only double but can also be enjoyable.(我学习中文最大的收获就是，学习中文不仅是可行的，而且是充满乐趣的)”以及上文中的对作者学习汉语的经历和感受的介绍可知，本文主要讲述的是作者作为外国人分享了自己学习中文的经历和感受，所以标题“学中文没那么难”与文章内容吻合，且能概括本文的主题，适合作为标题。故选B项。 Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市河北区·期中） I’m not a fan of patchwork quilts (拼缝被子). While I appreciate the feelings and effort put into making them, I usually don’t really care about the end result. Surprisingly, however, there is a small patchwork quilt in my home. This quilt originally belonged to my mother. In her later years, after my father passed away, she joined a weekly ‘book club’ with some women from the neighborhood. In fact, it was more of an excuse to get together and drink coffee. One of the ladies, Emily, was skilled in handicrafts and she made my mother a small quilt. For years, this quilt sat folded on a chair in my mom’s living room. It went with her when she moved to a small, one-bedroom suite at an assisted living facility (辅助生活机构). I never saw my mother use it throughout all those years. During one of my visits, I playfully teased (取笑) my mom about her never using the quilt and asked her why she kept it. She said it was because it was a gift from Emily. I questioned further, as she was not particularly close to Emily and did not even like the quilt’s design. Her response remained the same: Because it was from Emily. After thinking this over for several days, I came to realize that the quilt’s value did not lie in its appearance or in its maker, but rather in the significance it held for my mother about neighborliness, community and caring for one another. I inherited (继承) the quilt more than a decade ago and it has remained folded on a shelf ever since. My plan is to one day gift it to my daughter, but I won’t pressure her to keep it, although I’m secretly hoping she will. Patchwork quilts hold stories. The tales we attach to what we see and do enrich our lives, turning the ordinary into something magical. 37．What was the author’s attitude towards patchwork quilts at the beginning? A．The author was eager to learn about them. B．The author didn’t care much for them. C．The author was very fond of them. D．The author admired them greatly. 38．What was the true purpose of the author’s mother attending the “book club”? A．To socialize with neighbors. B．To share handcrafting skills. C．To learn how to make coffee. D．To discuss the books they read. 39．Why did the author’s mother keep the quilt for years without using it? A．She found it too beautiful to use. B．She planned to give it to her daughter. C．It reminded her of the weekly book club. D．It represented the values of community and care. 40．What did the author do with the quilt after inheriting it? A．The author gave it away to a friend. B．The author kept it folded on a shelf. C．The author used it frequently. D．The author redecorated it. 41．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．The stories can make our ordinary life more exciting. B．Patchwork quilts are valuable because they are handmade. C．Ordinary objects can become magical through the stories we tell. D．The craftsmanship of patchwork quilts is what makes them special. 【答案】37．B 38．A 39．D 40．B 41．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文通过一个具体的物品——拼缝被子，探讨了家庭、友情和社区的重要性。作者通过个人经历，表达了对情感连接和传承的深刻理解和感悟。 37．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I’m not a fan of patchwork quilts. While I appreciate the feelings and effort put into making them, I usually don’t really care about the end result.(我不喜欢拼缝被子。虽然我欣赏制作它们所付出的感情和努力，但我通常并不关心最终结果。)”可知，作者最初对拼缝被子并不在意。故选B项。 38．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In her later years, after my father passed away, she joined a weekly ‘book club’ with some women from the neighborhood. In fact, it was more of an excuse to get together and drink coffee.(在我父亲去世后的晚年，她加入了社区里一些妇女每周一次的“读书俱乐部”。事实上，这只是她们聚在一起喝咖啡的一个借口。)”可知，作者的母亲参加“读书俱乐部”的真正目的是为了与邻居们社交。故选A项。 39．推理判断题。根据第四段中的“She said it was because it was a gift from Emily. I questioned further, as she was not particularly close to Emily and did not even like the quilt’s design. Her response remained the same: Because it was from Emily.(她说这是因为它是Emily送的礼物。我进一步追问，因为她与Emily并不特别亲近，甚至不喜欢被子的设计。她的回答依然如故：因为它是Emily送的。)”以及第五段中的“I came to realize that the quilt’s value did not lie in its appearance or in its maker, but rather in the significance it held for my mother about neighborliness, community and caring for one another.(我意识到，被子的价值不在于它的外观或制作者，而在于它对母亲关于邻里关系、社区和相互关怀的意义。)”可以推断，作者的母亲保留被子多年未使用的原因是它代表了社区和关怀的价值。故选D项。 40．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“I inherited the quilt more than a decade ago and it has remained folded on a shelf ever since.(我十多年前继承了这块被子，从那以后它一直折叠在架子上。)”可知，作者继承被子后一直将其折叠放在架子上。故选B项。 41．主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Patchwork quilts hold stories. The tales we attach to what we see and do enrich our lives, turning the ordinary into something magical.(拼缝被子承载着故事。我们赋予所见所为的故事丰富了我们的生活，将平凡变为神奇。)”可以推断，最后一段的大意是普通的物品通过我们讲述的故事变得非凡。故选C项。 主题02 人与自我——做人与做事 Passage 1 （2023-2024学年高一上·天津市耀华中学·期中） On the first day of my new high school, I almost had a nervous breakdown.Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “You’re nervous and that’s okay. Everyone is afraid of high school.” I denied (否认) it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends. On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didn’t think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right. Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging. Since then, I’ve been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasn’t much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions. It is normal to be scared about a new school. Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some out-of-class activities because you’ll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best,even if it isn’t straight A’s. Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school. 70．What does the underlined phrase “rise to” mean in the passage? A．stand for B．deal with C．turn to D．lift up 71．After his first week at school, the author . A．adapted to the new school little by little B．was still not used to the schedule in high school C．found high school not so challenging as he had imagined D．ran for monitor of his class against three other students 72．According to the passage, the secret of the author’s success lies mainly in . A．making more friends B．getting more A’s at school C．being who he really is D．joining in out-of-class activities 【答案】70．B 71．A 72．C 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要介绍的是作者高中第一天感到害怕，到后来逐渐适应新的学校，从中感悟出一个道理：成功在于做真实的自己。 70．词义猜测题。根据画线短语前的“On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldn’t figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be?(第一天，我每节课都迟到，经常迷路。学校就像一个我无法解开的谜题。这一整年都是这样吗?)”可知，在开学的第一天遇到了很多的困难，结合下文中的“especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it! (尤其是背着一个我几乎举不起来的大背包。它太大了，我可以用它把人打晕!)”可知，作者认为自己背着一个能把人打晕的背包，自己几乎举不起来，由此可知，作者认为自己不能“处理”这些困难，所以该单词的意思与“处理”意义相近。故选B项。 71．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Despite my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule figured out. With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad.(尽管我很害怕，但在第一周之后，我终于把我的日程安排好了。除了几次从楼梯上摔下来被人嘲笑之外，高中生活还算不错。)”可知，在第一周之后，作者安排好了自己的日程，感觉高中生活还算是不错，由此可知，在一周之后，作者应该是逐渐的适应了高中的生活。故选A项。 72．推理判断题。根据尾段“Most important of all, be who you are, whether you’re a “fool”, an athlete, or a lower grader. Don’t try to pretend to be someone you’re not. Now you know the true secrets of high school.(最重要的是，做你自己，不管你是一个“傻瓜”，一个运动员，还是一个低年级学生。不要试图假装成另一个人。现在你知道高中真正的秘密了吧。)”可知，作者认为无论你是谁，都要坚持做自己，不要假装成另一个人，并且在最后与读者互动“你知道高中的秘密了吧”，由此可知，作者成功的秘密在于坚持做自己。故选C项。 主题03 人与社会 历史社会与文化 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市第四十七中学·期中） One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick’s life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery (手术) hours after he was born in 2011. But after the operation, Susan burst into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn son’s back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages. “There were rolling hills of snow, a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom,” she recalled. It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family. It was a moment I’ll never forget.” Susan soon learned the artist was her son’s surgeon, Robert Parry, who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid-1980s during his internship (实习期) at a children’s medical center, where he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children’s bandages. “My first reaction was, ‘What is he doing? Hey, that’s kind of neat,’” Parry recalled. “I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone’s attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.” Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients’ personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isn’t much he hasn’t drawn. Most kids want super heroes sports team logos or princesses, while babies often receive scenes with flowers, trees and sea creatures. During the last 30 years, Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches (伤缝线) of more than 10,000 children. “During a time of stress for families, it’s nice to be able to help them smile and laugh,” Parry said. “This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.” For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child’s life and except for his drawings on bandages, “they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it,” he said. He’s not ready to retire, but he’s found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come. “I’ve taken up knitting (编织), Parry said. “Hats, sweaters, gloves — I enjoy it all. But mostly, I enjoy giving everything away.” 91．Susan burst into tears after her baby’s operation because she was ________. A．stressed B．unsatisfied C．moved D．heartbroken 92．How did Parry get the idea of decorating children’s bandages? A．He was encouraged by his patients. B．He was required to learn the skill during his internship. C．He was inspired by his colleague. D．He was encouraged by Susan to show his genius for art. 93．Parry’s artworks during the last 30 years show that he ________. A．took into consideration the tastes of individual patients B．knew more about his patients than their parents C．devoted himself more to art than to medicine D．created a large number of works beyond his expectations 94．What does Parry expect to achieve with his artworks? A．To get a reward from the artistic circle. B．To lift the spirits of his patients and their parents. C．To make a difference in his dull medical career. D．To win the admiration of his colleagues. 95．What can we learn about Parry from the last two paragraphs of the passage? A．He is eager to show others his new skills. B．He is more interested in knitting than drawing. C．He is looking forward to life after retirement. D．He enjoys trying new ways to help others. 【答案】91．C 92．C 93．A 94．B 95．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了医护工作者Robert Parry通过手绘装饰儿童绷带的方法，鼓舞病人和家属们的故事。 91．细节理解题。根据第二段“But after the operation, Susan burst into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn son’s back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages.(但手术后，Susan因另一个原因哭了起来：在他们刚出生的儿子的背上的伤口上，手绘在他的绷带上是一个甜蜜的冬天场景)”和第三段“It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family.(知道有人花了时间为我的家人做这件事，我感到非常感动和安慰)”可知，手术后，Susan在孩子手术后哭了起来，因为她很感动。故选C。 92．细节理解题。根据第四段“Susan soon learned the artist was her son’s surgeon, Robert Parry, who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid-1980s during his internship (实习期) at a children’s medical center, where he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children’s bandages.(Susan很快了解到这位艺术家是她儿子的外科医生Robert Parry，他在20世纪80年代中期在一家儿童医疗中心实习期间发现了另一种方式，在那里他看到一位同事剪出心形和鲨鱼形状来装饰儿童绷带)”和第五段“I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone’s attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.(我特别喜欢父母和病人看到他的作品时的反应。笑容把所有人的注意力都从手术上转移开了。然后我决定效仿)”可知，Parry装饰孩子绷带的想法是受同事的启发。故选C。 93．推理判断题。根据第六段“Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients’ personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isn’t much he hasn’t drawn. Most kids want super heroes sports team logos or princesses, while babies often receive scenes with flowers, trees and sea creatures. During the last 30 years, Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches (伤缝线) of more than 10,000 children. (帕里很快就从早期的心形和鲨鱼画中解脱出来，开始用捕捉年轻病人个性的绘画给家人带来惊喜。从史努比到蜘蛛侠，从熊到蝴蝶，他几乎没有画过什么。大多数孩子想要超级英雄，运动队的标志或公主，而婴儿通常会收到鲜花，树木和海洋生物的场景。帕里估计，在过去的30年里，他为超过1万名儿童留下了自己的手工作品)”可推知，Parry会考虑到个别患者的喜好来进行绘画。故选A。 94．细节理解题。根据第七段““During a time of stress for families, it’s nice to be able to help them smile and laugh,” Parry said. “This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.” (帕里说：“在家庭压力很大的时候，能够帮助他们微笑和大笑是很好的。这是我能为他们做的积极的事情，这也是我最喜欢的。”)”可知，Parry希望用他的作品来鼓舞病人和他们父母的精神。故选B。 95．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child’s life and except for his drawings on bandages, “they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it,” he said.(对帕里来说，奖励是知道他有希望改变一个孩子的生活，除了他在绷带上的画，“他们可以继续自己的生活，永远不会知道我在其中，”他说)”和最后一段““I’ve taken up knitting (编织), Parry said. “Hats, sweaters, gloves—I enjoy it all. But mostly, I enjoy giving everything away.”(“我开始织毛衣了，”帕里说。“帽子、毛衣、手套——我都喜欢。但最重要的是，我喜欢把所有东西都送出去。”)”可推知，他喜欢尝试新方法来帮助别人。故选D。 Passage 2 (2024-2025学年高一上 ·天津市第一百中学等校·期中) Heman Bekele, a 14-year-old ninth grader from Annandale, Virginia, has been named “America’s top young scientist” after developing a bar of soap (肥皂) that could be useful in the treatment of melanoma (黑色素瘤). “Treating cancer, one bar of soap at a time,” he said. “I have always been interested in biology and technology, and this challenge gave me the perfect platform to show my ideas.” He presented his idea for a soap — the “skin cancer treating soap” — made from compounds (化合物) that could reactivate dendritic cells (树突细胞) that protect human skin, enabling them to fight cancer cells. In a video to the 3M Young Scientist Challenge, Bekele said “he believed that young minds can make a positive impact on the world”. Bekele’s idea came from living in Ethiopia to the age of four where, he told The Washington Post, he had seen people keep working under the hot sun, “I wanted to make my idea something that not only was great in terms of science but also could be accessible (可用的) to as many people as possible.” His teacher at 3M, Deborah Isabelle, described the teen as “focused on making the world a better place for people who he hasn’t even met yet”. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), skin cancer is the most common of all cancers, with melanoma taking up only 1% but causing the majority of skin cancer deaths. The society says the rates (率) of melanoma have been rising rapidly over past years, particularly among women over 50, and it is more than 20 times more common in white people than in black people. At the same time, the death rates for melanoma have gone down in the last ten years due to better treatments. After winning the award, Bekele said he hoped to turn the soap into a “symbol of hope, accessibility and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach of all”. 96．From which paragraph can we learn how the soap works to treat melanoma? A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2 C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4. 97．What inspired Heman Bekele to develop the soap? A．His strong interest in technology. B．His personal experience in Ethiopia. C．His desire to win the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. D．His concerns about the rising rates of melanoma in the US. 98．What do we know about melanoma according to the ACS? A．It is the most common type of cancer. B．It has led to thousands of deaths over the past ten years. C．It makes up 1% of all skin cancer cases. D．It is more common in Black people than in white people. 99．How does Heman Bekele view the future of his soap? A．It will be widely recognized soon. B．It will change the skincare industry. C．It will need further study on its effectiveness. D．It will make skin cancer treatment more accessible. 100．Which of the following can best describe Heman Bekele? A．Creative and caring. B．Helpful and humorous. C．Hard-working and honest. D．Strong-willed and serious. 【答案】96．B 97．B 98．C 99．D 100．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位来自弗吉尼亚州安南代尔的14岁九年级学生Heman Bekele，因发明了一种可能对治疗黑色素瘤有用的肥皂而被命名为“美国顶尖年轻科学家”。这种肥皂由能够激活保护人类皮肤的树突细胞的化合物制成，从而使其能够对抗癌细胞。 96．细节理解题。根据第二段中“ He presented his idea for a soap — the “skin cancer treating soap” — made from compounds (化合物) that could reactivate dendritic cells (树突细胞) that protect human skin, enabling them to fight cancer cells.(他提出了一种肥皂——“皮肤癌治疗肥皂”——的想法，这种肥皂是由能够重新激活保护人类皮肤的树突细胞的化合物制成的，使它们能够对抗癌细胞。)”可知，在此处提到了肥皂是如何治疗黑色素瘤的，即这种肥皂由能够激活保护人类皮肤的树突细胞的化合物制成，从而使其能够对抗癌细胞。故选B。 97．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Bekele’s idea came from living in Ethiopia to the age of four where, he told The Washington Post, he had seen people keep working under the hot sun,(Bekele告诉《华盛顿邮报》，他四岁时在埃塞俄比亚的生活让他产生了这个想法，他在那里看到人们在烈日下不停地工作，)”可知，Heman的灵感来源于他在埃塞俄比亚的生活经历，在那里他看到人们在烈日下工作，即他开发这种肥皂的灵感来源于他在埃塞俄比亚的个人经历。故选B。 98．细节理解题。根据第五段中“According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), skin cancer is the most common of all cancers, with melanoma taking up only 1% but causing the majority of skin cancer deaths.( 根据美国癌症协会（ACS）的数据，皮肤癌是所有癌症中最常见的，黑色素瘤只占1%，但却导致了大多数皮肤癌死亡。)”可知，据美国癌症协会称，皮肤癌是所有癌症中最常见的，其中黑色素瘤只占1%，但导致了大多数皮肤癌死亡，即黑色素瘤占所有皮肤癌病例的1%。故选C。 99．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“After winning the award, Bekele said he hoped to turn the soap into a “symbol of hope, accessibility and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach of all”.( 获奖后，贝克勒表示，他希望把这种肥皂变成“希望、可及性和一个人人都能接受皮肤癌治疗的世界的象征”。)”可知，Heman表示他希望将这种肥皂变成“希望、可获得性和皮肤癌治疗普及世界的象征”。所以他认为自己的肥皂将使皮肤癌治疗更加普及和可获得。故选D。 100．推理判断题。通读全文，文章讲述了Heman不仅发明了可能有助于治疗黑色素瘤的肥皂，显示了他的创造力，而且他还希望这种肥皂能让更多人受益，显示了他的关怀之心。因此，最能描述Heman的是“有创造力和关怀心”。A选项“Creative and caring.(有创造力和爱心。)”符合题意。故选A。 应用文 主题01 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高一上·天津市河东区·期中） Summer reading programs Summer reading programs are a great way to encourage your children to read over the summer months.

Those places include second place Shenzhen, China, Novi Sad, Serbia in third place; Miami, Florida in fourth place, and Kathmandu, Nepal rounding out the top five. Let’s have a look at some of these attractive places. Copenhagen, Denmark With its modern design, 15 Michellin-starred restaurants and highly bike-friendly culture, it is not surprising that Denmark’s capital has topped The Lonely Planet’s top 10 cities list. Copenhagen’s street food business is developing fast in Refshaleon, a former industrial area with a food market, Reffen. Novi Sad, Serbia While Novi Sad is not as noted as the capital of Belgrade, it’s much more fashionable. It’s home to the country’s EXIT festival, which is held each July at the 18th century-era Petrovaradin Fortress. The festival brings visitors an exciting music and art scene and a youthful atmosphere (氛围). 2019 European Youth Capital was held in Novi Sad. It was a practice run for 2021, when the city got the important title of European Capital of Culture. Kathmandu, Nepal Three years after it was hit by a powerful earthquake, Kathmandu is welcoming visitors to a city which is much quieter, by design. With cars banned (禁止) from the historic center and motor horns (喇叭) banned across the Kathmandu Valley, it’s much quieter than it used to be in the past. Shenzhen, China Splendid China Folk Culture Village (锦绣中华中国民俗文化村) in Shenzhen is a miniature (缩影) park. Over 100 major tourist attractions have been miniaturized and laid out according to the map of China. There are cars and trains to transport visitors around the park, making it possible to visit the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Three Gorges Dam, the Potala Palace and the Terracotta Army in one day. Some of the shows are only performed on weekends. 141．In which city can you enjoy highly bike-friendly culture? A．Copenhagen, Denmark. B．Novi Sad, Serbia. C．Kathmandu, Nepal.

However, museums around the world are digitalizing (使数字化) their collections, enabling people to tour the museums from afar. The British Museum, London The British Museum contains objects from around the world, including the Rosetta Stone, with three versions of a text that helped researchers learn to read ancient Egyptian (古埃及语). The Great Court’s ceiling, in the middle of the museum, is composed of 3212 pieces of glass, none of which are alike. The virtual tour of the museum offers a 360-degree view of the room, allowing visitors to look at every piece. The J.

Its virtual tour, accessible through Google Arts & Culture, offers views of more recent works, including some by Van Gogh and Renoir. Another platform, Xplorlt, also features views of some of the museum’s outdoor spaces. MASP, São Paulo The first modern museum in Brazil, the Museu de Arte de São Paulo includes art from the 14th to the 20th centuries. The paintings, which are placed on glass panels, appear to be floating in mid-air. This setup, included in the virtual tour shows, makes the art appear almost magical. National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea This Korean museum includes four branches in different cities and features works of art from Korea and around the world. The art includes a variety of media such as print, sculpture and photography. There are also online exhibitions such as “Artists in Their Times” which traces trends in Korean art since the late 1970s. 151．What can we learn about The British Museum?

Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles County部分的“This museum, with locations in two different places, features art going back to The Neolithic Period.

Parents and booksellers tend to blame (责备) the growing appeal of online entertainment and games, but whom or what should be really blamed? Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, said in a report that although the parents’ intentions (意图) are good, they often stop their children from picking up the reading habit. Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read. It is turning children off. They should let them choose. My first tip is that reading should never be described with“work words” which make it seem like a chore (琐事). Too many families have fallen into the trap of regarding reading as a “good” activity and online game playing as “bad”. Instead, it is important to let reading be connected with pleasure and achievement, just as game playing is. The second tip is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller. while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the children, when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the children will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear. The third tip for parents is that they do not attempt to limit books to one age range. Parents should not worry whether a title looks too young or too old for a child. If a book has caught their attention, then let them take it and make up their own mind. Children often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. My father once compelled me to read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was 16 and I have never read another Clancy since. Reading is a personal experience. It should all be about patience and believe that books are sold to one person, one at a time. 52．According to Michael Norris, who makes the children lose interest in reading? A．Game designers. B．Entertainers. C．Booksellers. D．Parents. 53．In his first tip, the author suggests parents help their children ________. A．learn to do chores at home B．choose good books to read C．avoid thinking of reading as an unpleasant task D．spend less time in playing games 54．Why should children directly talk to booksellers? A．They can choose what they really want. B．They can get a good price. C．They can learn to spend money wisely. D．They can give advice to booksellers. 55．What does the underlined word “compelled” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Allowed. B．Advised C．Forced D．Encouraged 56．The author’s own example in Paragraph 5 shows that ________. A．his father’s way of education is not suitable B．parents shouldn’t limit books according to age range C．parents always choose wrong books for their children D．Tom Clancy’s works are not suitable for teenagers 【答案】52．D 53．C 54．A 55．C 56．B 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。父母的干预阻止了孩子养成阅读习惯，针对这一问题，作者给出了三条自己的建议。 52．细节理解题。根据第二段“Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, said in a report that although the parents’ intentions (意图) are good, they often stop their children from picking up the reading habit. Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read. It is turning children off. They should let them choose.(美国出版专家迈克尔·诺里斯在一份报告中说，尽管父母的初衷是好的，但他们往往会阻止孩子养成阅读的习惯。在决定孩子读哪些书的问题上，父母扮演了太多的角色。这会让孩子们失去兴趣。他们应该让他们自己选择。)”可知，迈克尔·诺里斯认为，父母让孩子们对阅读失去了兴趣。故选D项。 53．细节理解题。根据第三段“My first tip is that reading should never be described with “work words” which make it seem like a chore (琐事). Too many families have fallen into the trap of regarding reading as a “good” activity and online game playing as “bad”. Instead, it is important to let reading be connected with pleasure and achievement, just as game playing is.(我的第一个建议是，永远不要用“工作词汇”来描述阅读，这会让它看起来像一件苦差事。太多的家庭陷入了这样的误区：把阅读看成是“好”活动，把玩网络游戏看成是“坏”活动。相反，重要的是让阅读与快乐和成就联系在一起，就像玩游戏一样。)”可知，在他的第一条建议中，作者建议父母让孩子知道阅读不是一项不愉快的任务，而是像玩游戏一样快乐的事。故选C项。 54．细节理解题。根据第四段“The second tip is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller. while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the children, when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the children will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear.(第二个建议是确保孩子们直接与图书管理员或书商交谈。而父母则远远站在后面。家长应该让孩子自己选择阅读材料。即使父母只是站在孩子身边，当书商问他们喜欢读什么时，我们发现孩子们会给出他们认为父母想听到的答案。)”可知，孩子通过直接和书商对话，他们可以选择他们真正想要的。他们的选择不再受父母的影响。故选A项。 55．词句猜测题。根据划线单词后面的“I have never read another Clancy since”可知，从此以后作者再也没有读过克兰西的书，一定是因为16岁时，父亲让他读的克兰西的《寻找红色十月》对作者产生了不好的影响，作者肯定不喜欢读《寻找红色十月》，是父亲强迫作者读的，所以划线单词compelled的意义为“强迫”，与C项中的forced意义一致。故选C项。 56．推理判断题。根据第五段中作者自己的例子“My father once compelled me to read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was 16 and I have never read another Clancy since.(我16岁时，父亲曾强迫我读汤姆·克兰西的《寻找红色十月》，从那以后我再也没有读过克兰西的作品。)”可知，从此以后作者再也没有读过克兰西的书，一定是因为16岁时，父亲让他读的克兰西的《寻找红色十月》对作者产生了不好的影响，所以，父母不应该根据孩子的年龄来限制他们读的书。故选B项。 Passage 2 （2024~2025学年高一上·天津市部分区·期中） Exciting Sites for Your Children in Orlando ★Universal Orlando Resort Location: 1000 Universal Studios Plz Contact: 14073638000 Open Hours: Monday to Sunday from 9 AM to 6 PM The world’s favorite films and film stars come to life here and 40 amazing and amusing rides, shows and attractions are presented. ★Sea World Orlando Location: 7007 Sea World Dr Contact: 14073513600 Open Hours: Monday to Sunday from 9 AM to 5 PM Many new attractions and rides have been added to the original fun including a laser-fireworks-water show and high-tech thrill rides.
