When we arrived at our final stop in Paris, he just wanted to go home. He frowned (皱眉) as he watched me dance around our hotel room. I was excited because I successfully booked a table at L’Ami Louis, a restaurant I’d dreamed of visiting. Michael, my husband, wasn’t as excited. “Another overpriced French meal,” he complained (抱怨), “my wallet is crying.” Finally, they both agreed to go. Nick’s eyes lit up when he saw the golden French fries at the restaurant. “It might be okay,” he said to himself. The waiter noticed him and brought a huge plate of fries. “I guess I’m going to like it here,” Nick said. “Isn’t that Carole Bouquet?” Michael pointed to a family sitting with a boy about Nick’s age. The woman looked a lot like the famous French actress, but it was hard to tell in the dark restaurant. “Maybe,” I said, “film people love this place.” The waiter then appeared with our food. After setting the plate down, he said something to Nick. He pointed, and Nick followed the boy from Carole’s table out the door. “Don’t worry, madam,” the waiter said, “it’s just a game for the neighborhood kids.” I couldn’t see the boys until the waiter brought in a chocolate cake. They sat together to enjoy the cake, like old friends now. And we were making our own friends while enjoying the food. The restaurant had become a dinner party. It was late when the evening ended. “That,” Nick said, “is a very fine restaurant.” “But you only ate fries and cake,” I pointed out. “Who cares? The boy I met was everything,” he replied, “can we go back to L’Ami Louis tomorrow?” 4. Which is the correct time order of the following events? ①The family arrived at their hotel in Paris. ②Nick followed a boy out of the restaurant. ③The boys shared a chocolate cake together. ④Michael noticed a woman who looked like Carole Bouquet. A. ①③④② B. ①④②③ C. ④①③② D. ④③①② 5. Why did Michael complain about going to L’Ami Louis at first? A. He wanted to go back to the hotel early. B. He lost his wallet on his way to L’Ami Louis. C. He thought the French meal was too expensive. D. He didn’t like the environment of the restaurant. 6. How did Nick’s feelings change in the story? A. From tired to angry. B. From excited to relaxed. C. From scared to bored. D. From uninterested to happy. 7. What mainly makes Nick think “That is a very fine restaurant”? A. A delicious meal with his family. B. A nice talk with the friendly waiter. C. A wonderful evening with the new friend. D. A special menu other restaurants don’t offer. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者一家在巴黎旅行时，儿子尼克最初因疲惫而对旅行感到厌倦，但在作者预定的L’Ami Louis餐厅中，通过品尝美食和结识新朋友，他的情绪发生了积极转变的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When we arrived at our final stop in Paris, he just wanted to go home.”以及“He frowned (皱眉) as he watched me dance around our hotel room.”可知，①“一家人到达巴黎的酒店”是第一个事件；根据“Michael pointed to a family sitting with a boy about Nick’s age. The woman looked a lot like the famous French actress…”可知，④“Michael注意到一个长得像Carole Bouquet的女人”是第二个事件；根据“He pointed, and Nick followed the boy from Carole’s table out the door.”可知，②“Nick跟着一个男孩走出了餐厅”是第三个事件；根据“I couldn’t see the boys until the waiter brought in a chocolate cake. They sat together to enjoy the cake…”可知，③“男孩们一起分享了一块巧克力蛋糕”是第四个事件。因此，正确的时间顺序是①④②③，故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Another overpriced French meal,” he complained (抱怨), “my wallet is crying.”可知，Michael一开始抱怨去L’Ami Louis是因为他认为法国餐太贵了。因此，选项C“他认为法国餐太贵了”正确。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。文章开头提到Nick对旅行感到厌倦，对去餐厅也不感兴趣，但后来在餐厅里他遇到了新朋友，一起玩游戏、分享蛋糕，最终改变了态度，认为这是一家很棒的餐厅。因此，Nick的感情变化是从不感兴趣到开心，选项D“从不感兴趣到开心”符合题意。故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章中的描述“Who cares? The boy I met was everything” he replied, “can we go back to L’Ami Louis tomorrow?”可知，Nick认为这是一家很棒的餐厅主要是因为他在那里遇到了新朋友，度过了一个愉快的晚上。因此，选项C“和新朋友一起度过的美好夜晚”正确。故选C。 C ①Welcome to Volunteer World. The South Africa Childcare Volunteers program is one of our most popular programs. If you like helping others, this program is just right for you. Here’s something you need to know before joining us as a volunteer. ②In South Africa today, over half of the people are poor. In some places, life is really difficult. Not having enough places to look after children means many children are left alone without protection. As a result, many young children miss early education, they can't grow up well and become the best of themselves. ③In Cape Town and some nearby areas in South Africa, finding cheap childcare is super hard for poor parents. This is the biggest problem for them. Although many centers have been set up to help these families, they only have a few workers and resources (资源). This is why we need volunteers to help improve the care to the children. ④As a childcare volunteer, you will work in care centers in Cape Town to look after the kids. Most parents of these kids work in the city, so they can drop off their kids at our centers in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon. Your jobs will be cleaning, preparing meals, and teaching kids math and reading. You will work from Monday to Friday and have a break on weekends. New to volunteering? Don’t be nervous! If you’ve never done this before, our program will pair you with an experienced volunteer for every step. ⑤Come and join us. It’s a great chance to start a meaningful journey. Don’t miss out 8. What is the biggest problem for poor parents in Cape Town and nearby areas? A. No chance to get good jobs. B. No hope to get further education. C. Changes in their living conditions. D. Difficulties in finding cheap childcare. 9. What can we learn about the childcare centers in Cape Town? A. They serve children from rich families. B. They have enough workers and resources. C. They give children lessons on math and reading. D. They allow children to stay all day and all night. 10. Why does the program say “New to volunteering? Don’t be nervous?” in Paragraph 4? A. Because the volunteer work is easy. B. Because parents will come and work. C. Because someone will be there to help. D. Because volunteers are free on weekends. 11. What is the main purpose (目的) of the passage? A. To explain the importance of early education. B. To describe volunteer activities in Cape Town. C. To introduce the living conditions in South Africa. D. To encourage people to join the childcare program. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了南非儿童保育志愿者项目，包括南非儿童保育的现状、开普敦及周边地区贫困父母面临的问题、儿童保育中心的工作内容以及项目的鼓励性话语，旨在鼓励人们加入该项目。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段首句“In Cape Town and some nearby areas in South Africa, finding cheap childcare is super hard for poor parents. This is the biggest problem for them.”可知，在开普敦及周边地区，对贫困父母来说，最大的问题是难以找到廉价的儿童保育服务。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Your jobs will be cleaning, preparing meals, and teaching kids math and reading.”可知，志愿者的工作包括教孩子们数学和阅读，由此可推断这些保育中心会给孩子上数学和阅读课。A选项错误，这些中心服务的是贫困家庭（poor parents）的孩子；B选项错误，第三段中明确指出这些中心“only have a few workers and resources”（只有很少的工作人员和资源）；D选项错误，父母是早上送来，下午接走，并非全天候托管。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“If you’ve never done this before, our program will pair you with an experienced volunteer for every step.”可知，新手志愿者不必紧张，因为项目会为每一步都配备一位有经验的志愿者来提供帮助。故选C。 【11题详解】 写作目的题。通读全文，文章开头引出志愿者项目，接着说明南非贫困儿童面临的困境和需要帮助的原因，然后详细介绍志愿者的工作内容和支持，最后呼吁人们加入。整篇文章的目的是鼓励人们加入这个儿童保育志愿者项目。故选D。 D Once upon a time, on a farm, there lived an old woman named Madame Frissette. She lived with her chickens, Clarice, Clara, Claudia, and Molly. One day, the tax (税) collector came to the farm. The King had decided to raise taxes. If she couldn’t pay in a week, her farm would be taken. Madame cried. Her chickens, of course, had seen the whole thing. Scene One Egg-Laying Hopes Clara: Poor Madame! Clarice: She’s in real trouble. Claudia: We must do something! Molly: We can lay more eggs! Then Madame can sell them and save the farm. But chickens are not machines. The next day, they laid the same number of eggs as always. Scene Two Feather (羽毛)-Growing Dreams Molly: This is not working. Clara: Now what? Claudia: We must do something! Clarice: Maybe we can grow beautiful, long feathers, like the ones ladies put on their hats. Then Madame can sell them and save the farm. But chickens are not ostriches (鸵鸟). The next morning, they had the same feathers as always. Scene Three Show-Performing Success Clarice: This is not working. Clara: What can we do? Molly: We must do something! Madame is crying as if her heart is about to break. Claudia: I have a new idea. The chickens worked very hard for the next few days, in secret. Soon it was Friday morning. At sunrise, Madame Frissette opened the door. “Oh, my!” she shouted. Clarice was walking on the clothesline. Claudia was balancing on a ball. Clara was flying through a hoop on fire. Molly was riding a unicycle. Villagers heard the noise and crowded around to see. They cheered for chickens and threw coins on the ground. When the tax man arrived, his mouth fell open. Hundreds of coins littered the ground. There was enough to pay the tax. And there was even some left. 12. Why did Madame Frissette cry at the beginning? A. She couldn’t pay the added taxes. B. Villagers were unfriendly to her. C. Her chickens stopped laying eggs. D. The tax collector took her chickens. 13. Which feature (特征) of ostriches can you find from the text? A. Ostriches are the largest living birds. B. Ostriches are used to living in groups. C. Ostriches have strong legs and run fast. D. Ostriches can grow long and nice feathers. 14. What does the underlined part “his mouth fell open” mean in the last paragraph? A. The tax man fell down and broke his mouth. B. The tax man shouted loudly at the old woman. C. The tax man was shocked by what he had seen. D. The tax man was angry about the chickens’ show. 15. What can be the best title for this text? A. Chickens’ Saving Journey B. Villagers’ Surprising Show C. The King’s Tax Decision D. Madame Frissette’s Farm Trouble 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Madame Frissette因无法支付国王新增的税款而面临失去农场的困境，她的四只鸡通过努力想出办法，最终通过表演杂技成功赚取足够税款的故事。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The King had decided to raise taxes. If she couldn’t pay in a week, her farm would be taken. Madame cried.”可知，国王决定提高税收，如果她一周内无法支付，她的农场将被没收，因此她哭了。所以Madame Frissette哭是因为她无法支付增加的税款。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据Scene Two中“Maybe we can grow beautiful, long feathers, like the ones ladies put on their hats.”以及“But chickens are not ostriches”可知，鸵鸟的特征是能长出漂亮的长羽毛。故选D。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。划线部分“his mouth fell open”位于最后一段，描述收税人到达时的反应。根据上文村民扔了满地的硬币，以及“There was enough to pay the tax.”可知，收税人看到满地硬币时非常惊讶。因此“his mouth fell open”意为“他惊讶得张大了嘴巴”，表示震惊。故选C。 15题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文，文章主要讲述了四只鸡为了帮助主人筹集税款，先后尝试下更多蛋、长更长羽毛失败后，最终通过秘密练习杂技表演成功赚取足够的钱的故事。整个过程是鸡的拯救之旅。A选项“小鸡的拯救之旅”最贴合文章主旨。故选A。 第二节 任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面材料，从方框中所给的A-E五个选项中选出正确选项(其中一项是多余选项)，将号填入第1-4小题，并回答第5小题。注意：请将第5小题的答案写在答题纸上非选择题分的相应位置。 How to Pick Your Next Book Summer vacation is coming.

Sano Kou 8:15 PM 19 May I’m from Aogashima. Aogashima is a Japanese volcanic (火山) island. Although there was an eruption (喷发) over 230 years ago, still many people live in the hole of this old volcanic island. We love living here—fishing, hiking, camping and swimming are popular activities. Endai 8:43 PM 19 May I’m one of Korowai people who live in treehouses, sometimes forty-five meters above the ground. The rainforest here is hot and wet, and there are insects and dangerous animals. Treehouses can protect us from these dangers. We climb up and down, enjoying the nature every day.

I was excited because I successfully booked a table at L’Ami Louis, a restaurant I’d dreamed of visiting. Michael, my husband, wasn’t as excited. “Another overpriced French meal,” he complained (抱怨), “my wallet is crying.” Finally, they both agreed to go. Nick’s eyes lit up when he saw the golden French fries at the restaurant. “It might be okay,” he said to himself. The waiter noticed him and brought a huge plate of fries. “I guess I’m going to like it here,” Nick said. “Isn’t that Carole Bouquet?” Michael pointed to a family sitting with a boy about Nick’s age. The woman looked a lot like the famous French actress, but it was hard to tell in the dark restaurant. “Maybe,” I said, “film people love this place.” The waiter then appeared with our food. After setting the plate down, he said something to Nick. He pointed, and Nick followed the boy from Carole’s table out the door. “Don’t worry, madam,” the waiter said, “it’s just a game for the neighborhood kids.” I couldn’t see the boys until the waiter brought in a chocolate cake. They sat together to enjoy the cake, like old friends now. And we were making our own friends while enjoying the food. The restaurant had become a dinner party.
