Due to her condition, her left hand and foot are weak, making tasks like tying her hair, putting on earrings, tying shoelaces(鞋带), and cutting food quite difficult. Her mum always encourages her, saying, “Try first, and ask for help if needed.” Even when she fails and feels frustrated, she never stops trying. Why did she start the channel? While learning to live independently, she discovered many creative ways to solve these problems. She realized that many others faced the same struggles, so she created Throw Leftie to share her ideas. Through her videos, viewers can learn how to adjust (调整) tools or change daily routines to make life easier. In the sport of lacrosse, coaches used to yell “Throw leftie!”. But because her left hand couldn’t work well, she became a goalkeeper instead. This allowed her to enjoy the sport without overusing her weak hand—a clever solution. Reagan also interacts(互动) closely with her audience. Every month, she has video calls with about 26 girls. They talk about school challenges, hobbies, and movies, forming a strong bond (联系) through their shared interests. (素材选自 Highlights for Children) ( ) 1.

B(原版阅读) He was an old man who fished alone in a boat and he had gone eighty-four days without taking a fish. In the first forty days a boy had been with him. But after forty days without a fish, the boy’s parents had told him that the old man was now exactly and finally salao, which is the worst form of bad luck, and the boy had gone at their orders in another boat which caught three good fish the first week. It made the boy sad to see the old man come in each day with his boat empty and he always went down to help him carry fishing tools. The old man was thin with deep wrinkles(皱纹) in the back of his neck. His hands had the deep scars(疤) from dealing with heavy fish. But none of these scars were fresh. Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same colour as the sea and were cheerful and full of confidence. “Santiago,” the boy said to him as they climbed from the bank where the boat was pulled up. “I could go with you again. We’ve made some money.” The old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him. “No,” the old man said. “You’re with a lucky boat. Stay with them.” “But remember how you went eighty-seven days without fish and then we caught big ones every day for three weeks.” “I remember,” the old man said. “I know you did not leave me willingly.” “It was Papa who made me leave. I am a boy and I must listen to him.” “I know,” the old man said. “I quite understand that.” “He doesn’t have much faith(信念).” “No,” the old man said. “But we have. Right?” “Yes,” the boy said. “Can I offer you a beer on the terrace and then we’ll take the fishing tools home?” “Why not?” the old man said. “Between fishermen.” They sat on the terrace and many of the fishermen made fun of the old man and he was not angry. Some other older fishermen looked at him and were sad. But they didn’t show it and they spoke politely about the sea and the weather. —Adapted from The Old Man and the Sea ( ) 6.

You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毁灭性的) waves, wind, and rain. They happen during the hurricane season, which is from June 1st to November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th to November 30th in the Pacific Ocean. Categories of hurricanes There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害) a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 157 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shoreline completely. Danger of hurricanes When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. The eye is actually a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it’s over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through. Safety tips on hurricanes There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips. • Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food. • Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home. • If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area. • Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured(受伤) if you go outside. 根据短文内容,回答问题。每题答案不超过6个词。 1. When is the hurricane season in the Atlantic Ocean? _______ 2. What are categories of hurricanes based on? _______ 3. What is called the eye? _______ 4. How many safety tips are mentioned in the passage? _______ 5. What should you do if a hurricane happens? _______ 1. 答案：From June 1st to November 30th. 解析：根据文中“from June 1st to November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean”可知答案。 2. 答案：Wind speeds. 解析：文中提到“which are based on wind speeds”，故填“Wind speeds”。 3. 答案：The centre of a hurricane. 解析：根据“The centre of a hurricane is called the eye.”可知答案。 4. 答案：Four. 解析：文中“Safety tips”部分列出了4条建议，故填“Four”。 5. 答案：Follow the safety tips. 解析：结合文中“be sure to remember the following safety tips”，总结为“Follow the safety tips”。 八、(2024·雅安)书面表达。(共10分) 安全对于我们每个人都很重要。为进一步增强学生的安全意识,提高学生的自我保护能力,学校组织以“How to keep safe in our life”为主题的演讲比赛。请根据以下内容要点,写一篇90词左右的文章参加比赛,已给出部分不计入总词数。 内容要点: 1. 校园安全:不在走廊奔跑,不打架; 2. 交通安全:遵守交通规则,骑自行车时不听音乐; 3. 食品安全:吃健康食品,不吃垃圾食品; 4. ……(至少补充一点) Dear teachers and students, Today, I’m glad to give a speech about how to keep safe in our life.

Due to her condition, her left hand and foot are weak, making tasks like tying her hair, putting on earrings, tying shoelaces(鞋带), and cutting food quite difficult. Her mum always encourages her, saying, “Try first, and ask for help if needed.” Even when she fails and feels frustrated, she never stops trying. Why did she start the channel? While learning to live independently, she discovered many creative ways to solve these problems. She realized that many others faced the same struggles, so she created Throw Leftie to share her ideas. Through her videos, viewers can learn how to adjust (调整) tools or change daily routines to make life easier. In the sport of lacrosse, coaches used to yell “Throw leftie!”. But because her left hand couldn’t work well, she became a goalkeeper instead. This allowed her to enjoy the sport without overusing her weak hand—a clever solution. Reagan also interacts(互动) closely with her audience. Every month, she has video calls with about 26 girls. They talk about school challenges, hobbies, and movies, forming a strong bond (联系) through their shared interests. (素材选自 Highlights for Children) ( ) 1.

B(原版阅读) He was an old man who fished alone in a boat and he had gone eighty-four days without taking a fish. In the first forty days a boy had been with him. But after forty days without a fish, the boy’s parents had told him that the old man was now exactly and finally salao, which is the worst form of bad luck, and the boy had gone at their orders in another boat which caught three good fish the first week. It made the boy sad to see the old man come in each day with his boat empty and he always went down to help him carry fishing tools. The old man was thin with deep wrinkles(皱纹) in the back of his neck. His hands had the deep scars(疤) from dealing with heavy fish. But none of these scars were fresh. Everything about him was old except his eyes and they were the same colour as the sea and were cheerful and full of confidence. “Santiago,” the boy said to him as they climbed from the bank where the boat was pulled up. “I could go with you again. We’ve made some money.” The old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him. “No,” the old man said. “You’re with a lucky boat. Stay with them.” “But remember how you went eighty-seven days without fish and then we caught big ones every day for three weeks.” “I remember,” the old man said. “I know you did not leave me willingly.” “It was Papa who made me leave. I am a boy and I must listen to him.” “I know,” the old man said. “I quite understand that.” “He doesn’t have much faith(信念).” “No,” the old man said. “But we have. Right?” “Yes,” the boy said. “Can I offer you a beer on the terrace and then we’ll take the fishing tools home?” “Why not?” the old man said. “Between fishermen.” They sat on the terrace and many of the fishermen made fun of the old man and he was not angry. Some other older fishermen looked at him and were sad. But they didn’t show it and they spoke politely about the sea and the weather. —Adapted from The Old Man and the Sea ( ) 6.

They happen during the hurricane season, which is from June 1st to November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th to November 30th in the Pacific Ocean. Categories of hurricanes There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害) a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 157 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shoreline completely. Danger of hurricanes When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. The eye is actually a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it’s over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through. Safety tips on hurricanes There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips. • Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food. • Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home. • If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area. • Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured(受伤) if you go outside. 根据短文内容,回答问题。每题答案不超过6个词。 1. When is the hurricane season in the Atlantic Ocean? _______ 2. What are categories of hurricanes based on? _______ 3. What is called the eye? _______ 4. How many safety tips are mentioned in the passage? _______ 5. What should you do if a hurricane happens? _______ 八、(2024·雅安)书面表达。(共10分) 安全对于我们每个人都很重要。为进一步增强学生的安全意识,提高学生的自我保护能力,学校组织以“How to keep safe in our life”为主题的演讲比赛。请根据以下内容要点,写一篇90词左右的文章参加比赛,已给出部分不计入总词数。 内容要点: 1. 校园安全:不在走廊奔跑,不打架; 2. 交通安全:遵守交通规则,骑自行车时不听音乐; 3. 食品安全:吃健康食品,不吃垃圾食品; 4. ……(至少补充一点) Dear teachers and students, Today, I’m glad to give a speech about how to keep safe in our life.
