专题04 阅读理解 记叙文和应用文 记叙文 主题01 人与社会——历史社会与文化 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市第一中学·期中） As journalists, we know the big stories. We learn quickly that the big ones are a collection of thousands of little stories that are important, too —lives lived, loved, lost and remembered. And we miss much when those little stories are forgotten. On a beautiful October morning, I went to see my doctor. I arrived early, but not as early as another older woman who sat in her car. She rolled down her window and said, “You’re too early, honey. They don’t open until 8:30.” I smiled and nodded. “Beautiful day, isn’t it?” I offered. “I was here first, son. But I won’t be long.” At 8:30, we both walked in and took waiting room seats. Our conversation continued. “You know,” she said. “I walked the dog this morning at 5. It was cool so I had to put on this warm jacket.” “That’s early to get out of bed!” “Oh no, I just got off work.” I looked at her hands. They were the hands of someone who had worked hard all her life. For the next 20 minutes, we talked about the news, the state of the world and other things. “It’s Thanksgiving weekend. You have big plans?” Her eyes looked away and seemed to fill with mist (薄雾). “My husband and I used to love Thanksgiving and Christmas. But on Thanksgiving years ago, I was preparing vegetables in the kitchen when he suddenly fell down.” When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor said he probably had less than an hour to live. “He managed to hang on until Christmas.” “I’m so sorry.” “I stay here close to the graveyard where he’s buried. I go there every day. I don’t know why I’m telling you this. I guess we’d all be better off if people just talked more. Or listened.” Just then the nurse called her. I was next. I was hoping to see my new friend when I emerged, but she was gone. I guess she is just one of those little stories. They’re those little leaves that hang on to the branches after all the others have gone. 6．What can we learn about the older woman? A．She has cancer. B．She works at night. C．She gets up at 5 am to walk her dog. D．She lives far away from the hospital. 7．How did the older woman probably feel when talking about Thanksgiving weekend? A．Bored. B．Excited. C．Annoyed.

A．His strong passion for journalism. B．The significance of communication. C．His great interest in daily life stories. D．The ways to make friends with strangers. Passage 2 （2023-2024学年高二上·天津市部分区·期中） A man on a cruise ship (游轮) noticed there was an elderly lady all alone, and the staff on the ship all knew her. Curious, he asked a waiter about the lady, half-expecting to hear that she owned the cruise line. However, all the waiter knew was that she had been on the last four cruises, back to back. As he left the dining room one evening, he caught her eye and stopped to say hello. He asked, “I understand you’ve been on this ship for the last four cruises.” She replied, “Yes, that’s true.” “I don’t understand,” he said. Without waiting, she replied, “It’s cheaper than a nursing home. The cost for a nursing home is at least $200 a day. Here on the cruise, I can get a long-term discount price of $135 a day. That leaves $65 a day for extra. I can enjoy up to 10 meals a day of fantastic food through room service. There are also free pools, an exercise room and nightly shows. Clean daily necessities are provided every day, without needing to ask. They treat you like a valued customer, not just a patient. An extra $5 worth of tips will have all the staff happy to help you.” “I have the chance to meet new people every 7 or 14 days! Is the TV broken? Need to change a light bulb? No problem! They will fix everything soon and say sorry for the problems. There is always a doctor on board. This is how I want to spend the later years of my life.” 10．Why was the man curious about the elderly lady on the cruise ship? A．He thought she was the captain of the cruise line.

Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市河东区·期中） Sonia Denoncourt is one of the most successful personalities in the world of women’s soccer. She made her name doing what many still think of as a “man’s job” — refereeing (为……当裁判) soccer matches. The Canadian began her career as a referee in 1978, at the age of 14. She worked her way up, and in 1994, became the first female international FIFA referee. Sonia was the first woman to referee a top men’s professional game, in EL Salvador in 1996. A year later, she became the first female to referee a men’s first division game (甲级队) in Brazil. She has refereed at thousands of games at all levels, including over 100 international games, three World Cups, and two Olympic Games. Her goal has always been to encourage more young women to become involved in the game. She accepts that it can be difficult, but she is sure that progress is possible. “I became a top referee and I’m from Canada, which is not a huge footballing nation,” she said. “So if I can do it, anyone can. And I wouldn’t change anything about my life because my career has given me incredible opportunities.” In 1994, there were only four female referees on FIFA’s list. In 2008, this figure had risen to552 — over 18 percent of the 3,000 listed FIFA referees and assistants. She is now Head of FIFA Women’s refereeing and continues to promote the role of women in soccer. However, there is still a long way to go in the battle for equality in the game. It is still very unusual to see a female referee at the top international tournaments (锦标赛). Some people say this is because the woman referees aren’t fit enough to work at the highest level. But for Sonia, this is simply an excuse to hide the widespread opposition to women doing what is considered a “man’s job”. “It’s a social thing,” she says. “In some countries women in positions of authority are just not accepted.” Even Sonia admits, “Football is still a man’s world.” But, things are changing, thanks to pioneering women like Sonia. 15．How old was Sonia Denoncourt when she first refereed a men’s first division game? A．14. B．19. C．33. D．42. 16．Which of the following words can best describe Sonia Denoncourt? A．Ambitious and inspirational. B．Tough and generous. C．Proud but patient. D．Strict but caring. 17．We can learn from the fourth paragraph that Sonia ______. A．has never been accepted as a referee B．has had a great impact on women’s refereeing C．has won the battle in competing with male referees D．has already considered herself as a leading referee 18．What made women have difficulty in working as referees? A．Being unfit enough. B．A lack of experience. C．Weak physical power. D．Deep-rooted unreasonable dislike. 19．What is the best title for the text? A．A Woman Doing a Man’s Job B．A Woman Accepting Changes C．A Woman Having Her Dream D．A Woman Involved in International Games Passage 4 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市天津市红桥区·期中） As I walked down the street on the first day in Dubai last year, the hot air mixed with my excitement, reminding me that I was now in a mysterious habitat. With the curiosity of wanting to try some Arabian food, I excitedly went to a local restaurant. Unexpectedly, an incident happened. The guard standing outside the restaurant said to me, “Now it is the special festival for Muslims called Eid, during which Muslims go on fasting. Eating is banned before sunset.”“But I am only a tourist, not a Muslim. You could not restrict my liberty to have dinner,” I argued. He firmly answered, “The tradition of Islam is the same for everyone in Dubai. Once you step on the ground of Abu Dhabi, you should, and you must, obey the rule.” Listening to his response, my disappointment turned into annoyance. As a person who knew nothing about Islam, I felt that their customs seemed quite unusual. Back to the hotel,I began to search for the information of Eid and came to know that every year there is a period of time that Muslims go on fasting until sunset. For Muslims, the fasting is to purify themselves both physically and mentally. Glancing over the information about Eid, I felt guilty about getting annoyed with the guard. I realized that I should constantly understand and respect others’ customs and beliefs. Although sometimes the beliefs of people from various backgrounds are quite hard to accept, understanding the situation better before solving conflicts is much more effective. Only by truly accepting others’ customs could I learn from the value of their beliefs. I understood the importance of being determined to one’s belief, while at the same time  learning to possess a passionate attitude towards others. 20．What did the author do on the first day in Dubai? A．He enjoyed a delicious Arabian meal. B．He made an appointment with the guard. C．He argued with a guard outside a local restaurant. D．He stayed in the hotel because of the hot weather. 21．What does the underlined phrase“go on fasting” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Clean the whole room. B．Stop eating in a period. C．Refuse to eat in a day. D．Enjoy some entertainments. 22．How did the guard in the restaurant talk to the author? A．Enthusiastically. B．Rudely. C．Seriously. D．Impolitely. 23．Why do Muslims fast? A．Muslim fasting is to purify (净化) the body and soul. B．No eating is allowed before sunset in Muslim countries. C．Muslims feel guilty to eat before sunset. D．They will be disappointed and annoyed when eating before sunset. 24．What can we infer from the last paragraph about the author? A．He apologized to the guard. B．He believed in Islam after the trip. C．He regretted arguing with the guard. D．He changed Muslim customs and beliefs. 主题02 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市滨海新区田家炳中学·期中） My grandfather was a teacher. He was the headmaster of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, and seated me on his knees, and told me stories, but I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him. At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot. He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home. 25．I know my grandfather was kind and gentle, because ______.

Never give up!” sang my two young children, Max and Charley, as they marched barefoot behind their grandmother Mimi on another adventure, off the beach where they had spent the day building sand castles and beating the waves. This time, they were seeking the ice-cream truck. Over the years, Mimi had become our family’s source of positivity through her effort. My father’s death left her to raise me and my ten-year-old brother alone at forty. She faced tragedy that is powerful enough to cloud just about anyone’s outlook. Instead, she challenged herself to find joy every day. She was always up for a new challenge, whether parasailing (驾帆伞滑翔) over the Gulf of Mexico, or signing up for tap-dancing classes at fifty. Leading by example, Mom taught us how much one could accomplish with a positive attitude. She has taken the same approach in her relationship with her grandchildren. Prior to starting her adventure with Max and Charley that hot July afternoon, Mimi heard the familiar sound of the ice-cream man’s bell from her beach chair. The ice-cream man’s visit is a daily occurrence at the beach, but one must be quick to catch his truck. Max and Charley were disappointed when they didn’t catch him in time that day, until Mimi’s eyes sparkled and explained that they could rush to find it at its next stop. They walked block after block. My kids’ tiny legs were tired, but they went on. After about twenty minutes’ walking, Max spoke out loud, “Maybe we should give up.” Charley responded with a quick “No way! Never give up!” and resumed her singing with Mimi. Just two blocks later, they found it. Max and Charley screamed with excitement, “Never give up!” Simple though it was, that phrase has become our battle cry (口号) for the challenges we face. Upon hearing those words, they are instantly transported to a positive state of mind — where the next ice-cream truck is just around the corner. 45．Why were Max and Charley marching barefoot? A．To get some extra exercise on the beach. B．To meet their grandma’s special request. C．To run after the truck for an ice cream. D．To build sand castles and fight the waves. 46．How did Mimi demonstrate her positive attitude and resilience after her husband’s death? A．She led a private life and avoided social interactions. B．She focused on finding joy every day despite the tragedy. C．She immediately signed up for tap-dancing classes. D．She started a new career to distract herself from her loss. 47．How did Charley react to Max’s disappointment? A．She blamed him for being loud. B．She took the idea and followed suit. C．She turned to Mimi for some advice. D．She opposed him and went on seeking. 48．What does the underline word “resumed” mean in paragraph four? A．repeated B．continued C．stopped D．whispered 49．What lesson can we learn from the story? A．Self-trust is the first secret of success. B．Remain positive in times of difficulties. C．Seize a chance in life before it disappears. D．Hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Passage 2 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市耀华中学·期中） What would you do for the rest of your life if you suddenly lost the capacity for movement except the ability to blink your eyelids? How would you realize the meaning and value of your life? In the Blink of an Eye A voice reaches us, crying out from the depths of a profound silence: “I am alive, I can think, and no one has the right to deny me these two realities …” The words were conveyed by a flicker (跳动) of the left eyelid. It came from a book, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, by a former journalist, Jean-Dominique Bauby. He worked for journals like the Quotidien de Paris and Paris Match. For four years until December 1995, he was the very successful chief editor of Elle. Then the unthinkable happened. A cardiovascular (心血管的) accident sent him into a deep coma (昏迷), from which he emerged 20 days later in a hospital on the north-east coast of France. His brain remained undamaged, but its connection to his body left him with only the ability to blink his left eyelid. The poor man was diagnosed as suffering from the rare disease “Locked-in Syndrome (闭锁综合征),” unable to breathe or eat without assistance. It was hard to accept the transition from an “earthman in perfect working order” to what his friends termed “a vegetable.” In this inert (无活动能力的) body, however, his brain was working furiously, trying to make people understand what he was thinking. With the help of a specialized nurse, Claude Mendibil, he was able to write his book, using only his ability to blink at the most frequently used letters of the alphabet. Mendibil pointed to them on a screen: one blink for “yes,” two blinks for “no.” He would spend most of the night editing his thoughts and composing sentences. When Mendibil arrived in the morning he could dictate them to her in a succession of blinks. It took him about 200,000 blinks to write his book of more than 100 pages. In it, Bauby describes his paralyzed existence as being trapped in an old-fashioned deep-sea diving bell while the “butterflies” of his mind flutter (振翅) about freely. One would expect from this process a formal factual report, but that is not the case. The book reads in flowing images that light up his predicament (困境). The style is clearand fresh, and not without elegance, imagination and shafts of humor. He is also in search of past time, of memory itself, of the books he had read, the poems he had learnt by heart. Even sadder, he thinks of all the books he wanted to read and hadn’t gotten to. He has to listen to someone else reading them to him. He recalls meals, a horse race, his life and work as an editor, and his struggle in his hospital bed to twitch (抽搐) his nose when a fly lands on it. “From this hell comes a great message of life and hope,” said Antoine Audouard, a friend of Bauby’s and the book’s publisher. 55．We can learn from the article that Jean-Dominique Bauby ________. A．died of a rare cardiovascular condition B．used to be a successful journalist and editor C．suffered brain damage due to Locked-in Syndrome D．continued to run magazines from his hospital bed with the help of a nurse 56．What do paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly talk about? A．How Bauby was able to write his book. B．What Bauby’s life was like after he had been paralyzed. C．What The Diving Bell and The Butterfly is mainly about. D．Why Bauby wrote the book The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. 57．Based on the article, which of the following statements about The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is true? A．It is written in a formal and serious style. B．It focuses on Bauby’s memories from his time as an editor. C．It describes Bauby’s paralyzed existence with elegant and creative language. D．It gives readers an easy-to-understand introduction to Locked-in Syndrome. 58．Based on this article, which of the following words can be used to describe Bauby? A．Odd-tempered. B．Open-minded. C．Warm-hearted. D．Strong-willed. 59．According to Antoine Audouard, what message does Jean-Dominique Bauby’s book convey? A．A message of despair B．A message of laughter C．A message of optimism D．A message of regret Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市蓟州区·期中） An old soul is the last thing you would expect to find inside Justin Bieber. Listen to the 21-year-old soul-singing pop star, and you will touch the trend of pop music in the United States. After posting dozens of homemade videos on YouTube in 2007, the multi-talented Bieber racked up over 10,000,000 views from word of mouth. In an effort to share his victory with his loved ones, Justin began posting his performance online. “I put my singing videos from the competition on YouTube so that my friends and family could watch them,” he says. But seven months later, a record company manager, Scooter Braun, took him to meet with his boss, Usher. Justin sang for Usher, but his natural singing talent wasn’t enough to impress Usher. Braun knew Bieber was also a self-taught musician who plays the drums, guitar, piano and trumpet. Luckily, it took Usher a short time to realize that Bieber was a future superstar. Usher and Timberlake both wanted to sign (签约) him. It turned out Usher’s trade way was better. He had L. A．Reid backing him up and Scooter had a lot of really good connections in Atlanta. “I always make fun of Usher now and remind him how he blew me off the first time we met.” Justin Bieber’s first single — One Time, produced by Tricky, is about one of Justin’s favorite topics, puppy love. Bieber finds himself maturing (成熟) at a steady rate, while motivating his listeners to struggle for their goals. “I’m looking forward to influencing others in a positive way,” says Justin. “My message is you can do anything if you just put your mind to it. I didn’t have as much as other people did. I think it made me stronger and it built my character. Now I want to go to college and just become a better person.” A natural artistic talent, Justin Bieber is going to be a solid force in music for many years. “I think older people can appreciate my music because I really show my heart when I sing, and it’s not common,” he says. “I think I can grow as an artist and my fans will grow with me.” 68．Why did Justin Bieber put his videos online? A．He wanted to be famous. B．He wanted to get signed by a manager. C．He thought he was really good.

He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends. My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult, I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard. On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day dad took out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. 83．Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult? A．He was silent most of the time. B．He was too proud of himself. C．He did not love his children.

I was selected and told I had potential. They said that for only $900 I could attend a weekend event which dozens of the most prestigious (有声望的) modeling agencies from around the world would attend. At 13, my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgment and I begged my parents to let me go. We have never been rich, but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed. I imagined being signed by some famous model companies. For months, any boredom or disappointment was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be a real model. I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines! Of course, I wasn’t signed, but what hurt me most was being told that if I grew to 5’9” (about 1.75 metres) I could be a success. I prayed for a growth spurt (冲刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream. I made an appointment with a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $ 500 for classes, $500 for a photo shoot, and $ 300 for other expenses. My parents only agreed after hours and hours of me begging. The agency sent me out on a few auditions, but with every day I didn’t receive a call I grew more depressed. The final straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial (广告) modeling. There was an open call in New York City. We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short I was devastated (感到难以承受的). Years later Ire zed that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn’t actually love modeling, just the idea of it. I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal. The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future. 88．What’s the main reason why the author wanted to be a model? A．She won a national contest.

A．Where there’s a will there’s away. B．Being a model is not that easy. C．We should have our own judgment and should not just follow others.

Ham radio would be the best option to contact someone as it uses the ionosphere (电离层) to communicate, instead of cellular towers. That’s why we use it when mobile phone networks are destroyed during natural disasters,” he said in an interview. When Rebba was nine, he received his ham radio technician license—becoming the youngest person of Indian origin then to receive it. “My dad has been a ham radio operator for the past 25years. When I was in the third grade, I convinced him to take me along to the Dayton Hamvention, where I was totally overwhelmed by some cool stuff including Morse code keyers. From then on, I decided to go further in this field,” Rebba said. In 2017, Rebba was part of the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) project. It involves amateur radio operators across the world speaking directly to astronauts through their radio stations. “After three tries, I received the approval. As I have an amateur radio license! was able to make my initial contact. Some 16 students across America were given the chance to ask Joseph M. Acaba who was then on the International Space Station (ISS) 23questions,” Rebba explained. Besides being a ham radio operator, Rebba is also the CEO of Universal Help Foundation. “I once visited my dad’s village in India where I noticed the gap in the standard of living. That’s what made me start Universal Help Foundation—to create an impact.” said Rebba. He named the foundation Universal Help-Foundation rather than an limiting it to environmental sustainability (可持续发展) or disaster relief. Instead, he wanted to bridge the gap. Meanwhile, Rebba hopes to get further high up in space. However, the overall picture of the ham radio field is unpleasant. “The ham population is aging and fewer youngsters are drawn to it. Now we all have cell phones and the younger crowd doesn’t see the everyday use of ha m radio as important,” Rebba added. 1．What characterizes ham radio? A．Being convenient and safe to take along. B．Being a reliable means of communication. C．Being effective in evaluating natural disasters. D．Being quick to repair a broken mobile network. 2．How would Rebba describe the Dayton Hamvention? A．Dull. B．Fair. C．Demanding. D．Inspiring. 3．What did ARISS allow Rebba to do? A．Obtain his amateur radio license. B．Apply for membership of ARISS. C．Contact an astronaut in space via radio.

My wife and I were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary (纪念日) that year. To our delight, it was a splendid event, lovingly hosted by our sons just for us. Our dear, old friends gave us a wonderful surprise with their thoughtful gifts and heartfelt congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana, and continued to Yellowstone National Park. It was a cold spring day, and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Alongside the road, there was still a great amount of snow there. The scenery was so impressive that we made lots of stops to record memories with my camera. At the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the centre of my camera lens. There were not many cars on the road. Sometimes, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, who wore dirty clothes, parked behind our cars. Approaching us, he spoke only a simple command, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife.” I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could offer our thanks. Unexpectedly, the photo he took is now one of the most valuable and prized of our trip. In that unexpected encounter, I absorbed a lesson in the most unlikely of places. We should never judge a man by his appearance. To the motorcyclist who may one day read this story and remember us: we wish to extend our deepest appreciation and a heartfelt “Thank you” for the kindness you showed us that day. 6．What do we know about the trip? A．It was a gift for their wedding anniversary. B．It was a suggestion from their friends. C．It was in the late autumn five years ago. D．It was taken by train to the west. 7．What caused the couple to frequently pause on their trip along Beartooth Highway? A．Road signs. B．Impressive scenery. C．Car problems.

We learn quickly that the big ones are a collection of thousands of little stories that are important, too —lives lived, loved, lost and remembered. And we miss much when those little stories are forgotten. On a beautiful October morning, I went to see my doctor. I arrived early, but not as early as another older woman who sat in her car. She rolled down her window and said, “You’re too early, honey. They don’t open until 8:30.” I smiled and nodded. “Beautiful day, isn’t it?” I offered. “I was here first, son. But I won’t be long.” At 8:30, we both walked in and took waiting room seats. Our conversation continued. “You know,” she said. “I walked the dog this morning at 5. It was cool so I had to put on this warm jacket.” “That’s early to get out of bed!” “Oh no, I just got off work.” I looked at her hands. They were the hands of someone who had worked hard all her life. For the next 20 minutes, we talked about the news, the state of the world and other things. “It’s Thanksgiving weekend. You have big plans?” Her eyes looked away and seemed to fill with mist (薄雾). “My husband and I used to love Thanksgiving and Christmas. But on Thanksgiving years ago, I was preparing vegetables in the kitchen when he suddenly fell down.” When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor said he probably had less than an hour to live. “He managed to hang on until Christmas.” “I’m so sorry.” “I stay here close to the graveyard where he’s buried. I go there every day. I don’t know why I’m telling you this. I guess we’d all be better off if people just talked more. Or listened.” Just then the nurse called her. I was next. I was hoping to see my new friend when I emerged, but she was gone. I guess she is just one of those little stories. They’re those little leaves that hang on to the branches after all the others have gone. 6．What can we learn about the older woman? A．She has cancer. B．She works at night. C．She gets up at 5 am to walk her dog. D．She lives far away from the hospital. 7．How did the older woman probably feel when talking about Thanksgiving weekend? A．Bored. B．Excited. C．Annoyed. D．Sad. 8．What does the underlined word “leaves” refer to in the last paragraph? A．Talks. B．Stories. C．Friends. D．Journalists. 9．What does the author want to show with this article? A．His strong passion for journalism. B．The significance of communication. C．His great interest in daily life stories. D．The ways to make friends with strangers. 【答案】6．B 7．D 8．B 9．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位记者在一个美丽的秋日早晨就医时，与一位刚下夜班的老妇人之间的温馨对话，以及老妇人分享的个人悲喜故事。 6．推理判断题。由文章第五段中““You know,” she said. “I walked the dog this morning at 5.  It was cool so I had to put on this warm jacket.” (“你知道的，”她说。“我今天早上5点遛狗。天气很冷，所以我不得不穿上这件暖和的夹克。”)”和第七段中“Oh no, I just got off work. (哦，不，我刚下班)”可推知，这位年长的女士早上快5点才下班，所以她在晚上工作。故选B。 7．推理判断题。由文章第十段“It’s Thanksgiving weekend. You have big plans? (今天是感恩节周末。你有什么大计划吗？)”、第十一段“Her eyes looked away and seemed to fill with mist (薄雾). (她的眼睛望向别处，似乎充满了薄雾)”、““My husband and I used to love Thanksgiving and Christmas. But on Thanksgiving years ago, I was preparing vegetables in the kitchen when he suddenly fell down.” When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor said he probably had less than an hour to live. (“我丈夫和我过去很喜欢感恩节和圣诞节。但在几年前的感恩节，我正在厨房准备蔬菜，他突然摔倒了。”当他们到达医院时，医生说他可能只有不到一个小时的生命了)”可推知，当谈到感恩节周末时，她感到非常悲伤。故选D。 8．词句猜测题。由文章倒数第二段“Just then the nurse called her. I was next. I was hoping to see my new friend when I emerged, but she was gone. (就在这时，护士叫她。我是下一个。当我出来的时候，我希望看到我的新朋友，但是她走了)”和最后一段“I guess she is just one of those little stories. They’re those little leaves that hang on to the branches after all the others have gone. (我想她只是那些小故事中的一个。它们是那些在其他叶子都走了之后还挂在树枝上的小叶子)”可知，leaves在这里比喻那些即使在其他故事都已经消失后依然存在的小故事。A. Talks会谈；B. Stories故事；C. Friends朋友；D. Journalists记者。故选B。 9．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由倒数第三段““I stay here close to the graveyard where he’s buried. I go there every day. I don’t know why I’m telling you this. I guess we’d all be better off if people just talked more. Or listened.(我就住在他埋葬的墓地附近。我每天都去那里。我不知道我为什么要告诉你这些。我想如果人们多说话，我们都会过得更好。或者听着)”可推知，作者通过与这位年长女士的短暂交流，想要表达的是沟通的重要性，即使是最微不足道的故事也值得倾听，因为它们能够连接人心，传递情感。故选B。 Passage 2 （2023-2024学年高二上·天津市部分区·期中） A man on a cruise ship (游轮) noticed there was an elderly lady all alone, and the staff on the ship all knew her.

That leaves $65 a day for extra. I can enjoy up to 10 meals a day of fantastic food through room service. There are also free pools, an exercise room and nightly shows.

An extra $5 worth of tips will have all the staff happy to help you.” “I have the chance to meet new people every 7 or 14 days! Is the TV broken? Need to change a light bulb? No problem!

An extra $5 worth of tips will have all the staff happy to help you.(他们把你当作尊贵的客户，而不仅仅是病人。额外的5美元小费会让所有的员工都很乐意帮助你。)”可推知，老人的意思是小费可以让员工变得友好和体贴。故选C项。 14．推理判断题。根据第三段中“They treat you like a valued customer, not just a patient.(他们把你当作尊贵的客户，而不仅仅是病人。)”和第四段中“They will fix everything soon and say sorry for the problems.

She accepts that it can be difficult, but she is sure that progress is possible. “I became a top referee and I’m from Canada, which is not a huge footballing nation,” she said. “So if I can do it, anyone can. And I wouldn’t change anything about my life because my career has given me incredible opportunities.” In 1994, there were only four female referees on FIFA’s list. In 2008, this figure had risen to552 — over 18 percent of the 3,000 listed FIFA referees and assistants. She is now Head of FIFA Women’s refereeing and continues to promote the role of women in soccer. However, there is still a long way to go in the battle for equality in the game. It is still very unusual to see a female referee at the top international tournaments (锦标赛). Some people say this is because the woman referees aren’t fit enough to work at the highest level. But for Sonia, this is simply an excuse to hide the widespread opposition to women doing what is considered a “man’s job”. “It’s a social thing,” she says. “In some countries women in positions of authority are just not accepted.” Even Sonia admits, “Football is still a man’s world.” But, things are changing, thanks to pioneering women like Sonia. 15．How old was Sonia Denoncourt when she first refereed a men’s first division game? A．14. B．19. C．33. D．42. 16．Which of the following words can best describe Sonia Denoncourt? A．Ambitious and inspirational. B．Tough and generous. C．Proud but patient. D．Strict but caring. 17．We can learn from the fourth paragraph that Sonia ______. A．has never been accepted as a referee B．has had a great impact on women’s refereeing C．has won the battle in competing with male referees D．has already considered herself as a leading referee 18．What made women have difficulty in working as referees? A．Being unfit enough. B．A lack of experience. C．Weak physical power. D．Deep-rooted unreasonable dislike. 19．What is the best title for the text? A．A Woman Doing a Man’s Job B．A Woman Accepting Changes C．A Woman Having Her Dream D．A Woman Involved in International Games 【答案】15．C 16．A 17．B 18．D 19．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了女性足球裁判Sonia Denoncourt的职业生涯及其对女性参与足球裁判工作的推动作用。 15．细节理解题。由文章第二段中“The Canadian began her career as a referee in 1978, at the age of 14. She worked her way up, and in 1994, became the first female international FIFA referee. Sonia was the first woman to referee a top men’s professional game, in EL Salvador in 1996. A year later, she became the first female to referee a men’s first division game (甲级队) in Brazil. (1978年，14岁的加拿大人开始了她的裁判生涯。她努力工作，并于1994年成为国际足联第一位女裁判。索尼娅是1996年在萨尔瓦多举行的顶级男子职业比赛的第一位女裁判。一年后，她成为巴西男足甲级联赛的第一位女裁判。)”可知，Sonia Denoncourt在1978年开始裁判生涯，当时14岁，1996年后一年，即1997年，她成为第一位在巴西甲级联赛中担任裁判的女性，此时她33岁。故选C。 16．推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Her goal has always been to encourage more young women to become involved in the game. (她的目标一直是鼓励更多的年轻女性参与这项运动。)”和最后一段中“But, things are changing, thanks to pioneering women like Sonia. (但是，由于像Sonia这样的先锋女性，情况正在改变。)”可知，Sonia Denoncourt的目标是鼓励更多的年轻女性参与足球运动，并且她是一位先驱女性，正在推动事情发生改变，因此可以用“雄心勃勃且鼓舞人心”来形容她。故选A。 17．推理判断题。由文章第四段中“In 1994, there were only four female referees on FIFA’s list. In 2008, this figure had risen to552 — over 18 percent of the 3,000 listed FIFA referees and assistants. She is now Head of FIFA Women’s refereeing and continues to promote the role of women in soccer. (1994年，国际足联的名单上只有4名女裁判。2008年，这一数字上升到552人，超过了国际足联3000名裁判和助理中的18%。她现在是国际足联女子裁判的负责人，并继续促进妇女在足球中的作用。)”可知，Sonia Denoncourt对女子裁判工作产生了巨大影响。故选B。 18．细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“But for Sonia, this is simply an excuse to hide the widespread opposition to women doing what is considered a “man’s job”. “It’s a social thing,” she says. “In some countries women in positions of authority are just not accepted.” Even Sonia admits, “Football is still a man’s world.” (但对Sonia来说，这只是一个借口，用来掩盖人们普遍反对女性从事被认为是“男人的工作”。“这是一种社交活动，”她说。“在一些国家，女性担任权威职位是不被接受的。”就连索尼娅也承认，“足球仍然是男人的世界。”)”可知，女性难以担任裁判工作的原因是根深蒂固的不合理厌恶，即社会对女性担任权威职位的广泛反对。故选D。 19．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Sonia Denoncourt is one of the most successful personalities in the world of women’s soccer. She made her name doing what many still think of as a “man’s job” — refereeing (为……当裁判) soccer matches. (Sonia Denoncourt是世界女足最成功的人物之一。她因足球裁判这一被许多人认为是“男人的工作”而名声大噪。)”可知，文章主要讲述了Sonia Denoncourt作为一位在足球裁判领域取得巨大成功的女性，她的职业生涯以及她为推动女性在足球中的角色所做的努力。因此，最适合文章的标题是“A Woman Doing a Man’s Job (一个女人做着男人的工作)”。故选A。 Passage 4 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市天津市红桥区·期中） As I walked down the street on the first day in Dubai last year, the hot air mixed with my excitement, reminding me that I was now in a mysterious habitat. With the curiosity of wanting to try some Arabian food, I excitedly went to a local restaurant. Unexpectedly, an incident happened. The guard standing outside the restaurant said to me, “Now it is the special festival for Muslims called Eid, during which Muslims go on fasting. Eating is banned before sunset.”“But I am only a tourist, not a Muslim. You could not restrict my liberty to have dinner,” I argued. He firmly answered, “The tradition of Islam is the same for everyone in Dubai. Once you step on the ground of Abu Dhabi, you should, and you must, obey the rule.” Listening to his response, my disappointment turned into annoyance. As a person who knew nothing about Islam, I felt that their customs seemed quite unusual. Back to the hotel,I began to search for the information of Eid and came to know that every year there is a period of time that Muslims go on fasting until sunset. For Muslims, the fasting is to purify themselves both physically and mentally. Glancing over the information about Eid, I felt guilty about getting annoyed with the guard. I realized that I should constantly understand and respect others’ customs and beliefs. Although sometimes the beliefs of people from various backgrounds are quite hard to accept, understanding the situation better before solving conflicts is much more effective. Only by truly accepting others’ customs could I learn from the value of their beliefs. I understood the importance of being determined to one’s belief, while at the same time  learning to possess a passionate attitude towards others. 20．What did the author do on the first day in Dubai? A．He enjoyed a delicious Arabian meal. B．He made an appointment with the guard. C．He argued with a guard outside a local restaurant. D．He stayed in the hotel because of the hot weather. 21．What does the underlined phrase“go on fasting” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Clean the whole room. B．Stop eating in a period. C．Refuse to eat in a day. D．Enjoy some entertainments. 22．How did the guard in the restaurant talk to the author? A．Enthusiastically. B．Rudely. C．Seriously. D．Impolitely. 23．Why do Muslims fast? A．Muslim fasting is to purify (净化) the body and soul. B．No eating is allowed before sunset in Muslim countries. C．Muslims feel guilty to eat before sunset. D．They will be disappointed and annoyed when eating before sunset. 24．What can we infer from the last paragraph about the author? A．He apologized to the guard. B．He believed in Islam after the trip. C．He regretted arguing with the guard. D．He changed Muslim customs and beliefs. 【答案】20．C 21．B 22．C 23．A 24．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在迪拜旅游时碰到一件事：因为当地穆斯林的开斋节，餐馆的门卫不允许他进餐馆就餐。 20．细节理解题。根据第二段“The guard standing outside the restaurant said to me, “Now it is the special festival for Muslims called Eid, during which Muslims go on fasting. Eating is banned before sunset.”“But I am only a tourist, not a Muslim. You could not restrict my liberty to have dinner,” I argued.”(站在餐厅外面的卫兵对我说：“现在是穆斯林的特殊节日，叫做开斋节，穆斯林在这期间禁食。日落前禁止吃东西。”“但我只是一个游客，不是穆斯林。你不能限制我吃饭的自由，”我争辩道)”可知，在作者踏入迪拜的第一天，和当地一名餐馆门卫发生了争执。故选C。 21．词句猜测题。根据划线词组下午“Eating is banned before sunset.(饮食在日落前是禁食的)”可知，在这个节日期间，是不允许饮食的。由此可知，划线词组go on fasting意思是“一段时间内停止进食”。故选B。 22．推理判断题。根据第二段“He firmly answered, “The  tradition of Islam is the same for everyone in Dubai. Once you step on  the ground of Abu Dhabi, you should, and you must, obey the rule.”(他坚定地回答：“伊斯兰教的传统对于迪拜的每个人都是一样的。一旦踏上阿布扎比的土地，你就应该，也必须，遵守规则。”)”可推知，餐馆的门卫对作者的态度是严肃的。故选C。 23．细节理解题。根据第三段“For Muslims, the fasting is to purify themselves both physically and mentally.(对穆斯林来说，斋戒是为了净化自己的身心)”可知，穆斯林斋戒是为了净化身体和灵魂。故选A。 24．推理判断题。根据最后一段“I felt guilty about getting annoyed with the guard.(我对惹恼了警卫感到内疚)”可推知，作者对他和餐馆守卫发生争执的事情感到很后悔。故选C。 主题02 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市滨海新区田家炳中学·期中） My grandfather was a teacher. He was the headmaster of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, and seated me on his knees, and told me stories, but I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him. At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot. He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home. 25．I know my grandfather was kind and gentle, because ______.

(我知道他本质上是一个善良、温柔的人，因为在我小的时候，他给我送礼物，让我坐在他的膝盖上，给我讲故事，但我相信他学校里的男孩都怕他。)”可知，作者认为爷爷善良温柔，是因为他给作者送礼物，讲故事。故选B项。 26．细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. (当他带着某种眼神看着一个男孩时，那个男孩的脸涨得通红，低下头看着自己的鞋子。)”可知，当他带着某种眼神看着一个男孩时，他脸涨得通红，无法直视爷爷的目光。故选A项。 27．细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room (如果一个男孩给他带来糟糕的、粗心的作业，这不是一个男孩能做的最好的，我爷爷就会拿起那个男孩的书，把它扔到房间的另一边)”可知，爷爷不接受没有尽全力完成的作业。故选C项。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning!” (如果一个男孩给他带来又差又粗心的作业，这不是一个男孩能做的最好的作业，我爷爷就会拿起那个男孩的书，把它扔到房间的另一边，喊道：“再做一遍，明早再带回来！”)”可知，当爷爷收到糟糕的作业时，就会对着那个男孩大喊，并把他的作业扔到房间的另一边。故选A项。 29．推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home.

Never give up!” sang my two young children, Max and Charley, as they marched barefoot behind their grandmother Mimi on another adventure, off the beach where they had spent the day building sand castles and beating the waves. This time, they were seeking the ice-cream truck. Over the years, Mimi had become our family’s source of positivity through her effort. My father’s death left her to raise me and my ten-year-old brother alone at forty. She faced tragedy that is powerful enough to cloud just about anyone’s outlook. Instead, she challenged herself to find joy every day. She was always up for a new challenge, whether parasailing (驾帆伞滑翔) over the Gulf of Mexico, or signing up for tap-dancing classes at fifty. Leading by example, Mom taught us how much one could accomplish with a positive attitude. She has taken the same approach in her relationship with her grandchildren. Prior to starting her adventure with Max and Charley that hot July afternoon, Mimi heard the familiar sound of the ice-cream man’s bell from her beach chair. The ice-cream man’s visit is a daily occurrence at the beach, but one must be quick to catch his truck. Max and Charley were disappointed when they didn’t catch him in time that day, until Mimi’s eyes sparkled and explained that they could rush to find it at its next stop. They walked block after block. My kids’ tiny legs were tired, but they went on. After about twenty minutes’ walking, Max spoke out loud, “Maybe we should give up.” Charley responded with a quick “No way! Never give up!” and resumed her singing with Mimi. Just two blocks later, they found it. Max and Charley screamed with excitement, “Never give up!” Simple though it was, that phrase has become our battle cry (口号) for the challenges we face. Upon hearing those words, they are instantly transported to a positive state of mind — where the next ice-cream truck is just around the corner. 45．Why were Max and Charley marching barefoot? A．To get some extra exercise on the beach. B．To meet their grandma’s special request. C．To run after the truck for an ice cream. D．To build sand castles and fight the waves. 46．How did Mimi demonstrate her positive attitude and resilience after her husband’s death? A．She led a private life and avoided social interactions. B．She focused on finding joy every day despite the tragedy. C．She immediately signed up for tap-dancing classes. D．She started a new career to distract herself from her loss. 47．How did Charley react to Max’s disappointment? A．She blamed him for being loud. B．She took the idea and followed suit. C．She turned to Mimi for some advice. D．She opposed him and went on seeking. 48．What does the underline word “resumed” mean in paragraph four? A．repeated B．continued C．stopped D．whispered 49．What lesson can we learn from the story? A．Self-trust is the first secret of success. B．Remain positive in times of difficulties. C．Seize a chance in life before it disappears. D．Hope for the best and prepare for the worst. 【答案】45．C 46．B 47．D 48．B 49．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的母亲面对生活的厄运始终保持乐观的心态，并且向作者的两个孩子传递面对困难要“永不放弃、保持乐观”的态度。 45．细节理解题。由文章第一段““Never give up! Never give up!” sang my two young children, Max and Charley, as they marched barefoot behind their grandmother Mimi on another adventure, off the beach where they had spent the day building sand castles and beating the waves. This time, they were seeking the ice-cream truck. (“永不放弃！永不放弃！”我的两个孩子，Max和Charley唱着，他们赤脚跟在奶奶Mimi后面，踏上了又一次冒险之旅，离开了他们花了一天时间建造沙堡和拍打海浪的海滩。这一次，他们要找的是冰淇淋车)”可知，作者的两个孩子光着脚丫跟在奶奶后面，他们刚才在海滩玩耍，这时是去追赶卖冰激凌的小货车。故选C项。 46．推理判断题。由文章第二段“Over the years, Mimi had become our family’s source of positivity through her effort. My father’s death left her to raise me and my ten-year-old brother alone at forty. She faced tragedy that is powerful enough to cloud just about anyone’s outlook.

Never give up!”(走了大约二十分钟后，Max大声说：“也许我们应该放弃。”Charley迅速地回答：“不可能！永不放弃！”)”可知，Max走了一会觉得累了想放弃，此时Charley立刻反对他，继续寻找。故选D项。 48．词句猜测题。根据前文“After about twenty minutes’ walking, Max spoke out loud, “Maybe we should give up.” Charley responded with a quick “No way! Never give up!”(走了大约二十分钟后，Max大声说：“也许我们应该放弃。”Charley迅速地回答：“不可能！永不放弃！”)”可知，Charley回答了Max提出的建议，接下来应是接着和Mimi一起唱歌，所以推知resumed为“继续”之意，和B项意思相近。故选B项。 49．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段““Never give up!

How would you realize the meaning and value of your life? In the Blink of an Eye A voice reaches us, crying out from the depths of a profound silence: “I am alive, I can think, and no one has the right to deny me these two realities …” The words were conveyed by a flicker (跳动) of the left eyelid. It came from a book, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, by a former journalist, Jean-Dominique Bauby. He worked for journals like the Quotidien de Paris and Paris Match. For four years until December 1995, he was the very successful chief editor of Elle. Then the unthinkable happened. A cardiovascular (心血管的) accident sent him into a deep coma (昏迷), from which he emerged 20 days later in a hospital on the north-east coast of France. His brain remained undamaged, but its connection to his body left him with only the ability to blink his left eyelid. The poor man was diagnosed as suffering from the rare disease “Locked-in Syndrome (闭锁综合征),” unable to breathe or eat without assistance. It was hard to accept the transition from an “earthman in perfect working order” to what his friends termed “a vegetable.” In this inert (无活动能力的) body, however, his brain was working furiously, trying to make people understand what he was thinking. With the help of a specialized nurse, Claude Mendibil, he was able to write his book, using only his ability to blink at the most frequently used letters of the alphabet. Mendibil pointed to them on a screen: one blink for “yes,” two blinks for “no.” He would spend most of the night editing his thoughts and composing sentences. When Mendibil arrived in the morning he could dictate them to her in a succession of blinks. It took him about 200,000 blinks to write his book of more than 100 pages. In it, Bauby describes his paralyzed existence as being trapped in an old-fashioned deep-sea diving bell while the “butterflies” of his mind flutter (振翅) about freely. One would expect from this process a formal factual report, but that is not the case. The book reads in flowing images that light up his predicament (困境). The style is clearand fresh, and not without elegance, imagination and shafts of humor. He is also in search of past time, of memory itself, of the books he had read, the poems he had learnt by heart. Even sadder, he thinks of all the books he wanted to read and hadn’t gotten to. He has to listen to someone else reading them to him. He recalls meals, a horse race, his life and work as an editor, and his struggle in his hospital bed to twitch (抽搐) his nose when a fly lands on it. “From this hell comes a great message of life and hope,” said Antoine Audouard, a friend of Bauby’s and the book’s publisher. 55．We can learn from the article that Jean-Dominique Bauby ________.

C．Warm-hearted. D．Strong-willed. 59．According to Antoine Audouard, what message does Jean-Dominique Bauby’s book convey? A．A message of despair B．A message of laughter C．A message of optimism D．A message of regret 【答案】55．B 56．A 57．C 58．D 59．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位成功的记者不幸患上了一种罕见的疾病，除了眨眼，身体的其它部位失去了活动的能力。但是他凭借坚强的意志，在一位专业护士的帮助下，编写了自己的书籍，展现了积极乐观的生活态度。 55．细节理解题。根据第三段“It came from a book, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, by a former journalist, Jean-Dominique Bauby.(这句话出自前记者Jean-Dominique Bauby的书 《潜水钟与蝴蝶》)”和“For four years until December 1995, he was the very successful chief editor of Elle.(在1995年12月之前的四年里，他一直是《Elle》杂志非常成功的主编)”可知，Jean-Dominique Bauby过去曾是一名成功的记者和编辑。故选B。 56．主旨大意题。根据第五段“With the help of a specialized nurse, Claude Mendibil, he was able to write his book, using only his ability to blink at the most frequently used letters of the alphabet.(在专业护士Claude Mendibil的帮助下，他只用眨眼看到字母表中最常用的字母就能写书了)”和第四、五段内容可知，这两段主要描述了Bauby患病后是如何能够写书的。故选A。 57．细节理解题。根据第六段“In it, Bauby describes his paralyzed existence as being trapped in an old-fashioned deep-sea diving bell while the “butterflies” of his mind flutter (振翅) about freely.(在书中，Bauby把他瘫痪的生活描述为被困在一个老式的深海潜水钟里，而他头脑中的“蝴蝶”自由地飞舞)”可知，书中用优雅而富有创造性的语言描述了Bauby瘫痪的生活。故选C。 58．推理判断题。根据第二段Bauby书中所写“I am alive, I can think, and no one has the right to deny me these two realities …(我还活着，我可以这样想，没有人有权否认这两个事实……)”以及全文内容可知，Bauby在患有疾病后，除了眨眼，身体的其它部位失去了活动的能力，但他最终却能够编写自己的书籍，积极乐观的生活，凭借的是他坚强的意志力、顽强的精神。故选D。 59．细节理解题。根据最后一段Antoine Audouard的话“From this hell comes a great message of life and hope,(从这个地狱里传来了生命命和希望的伟大信息，)”可知，Antoine Audouard认为Bauby的书传达了一种充满希望的乐观的信息。故选C。 Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市蓟州区·期中） An old soul is the last thing you would expect to find inside Justin Bieber. Listen to the 21-year-old soul-singing pop star, and you will touch the trend of pop music in the United States. After posting dozens of homemade videos on YouTube in 2007, the multi-talented Bieber racked up over 10,000,000 views from word of mouth. In an effort to share his victory with his loved ones, Justin began posting his performance online. “I put my singing videos from the competition on YouTube so that my friends and family could watch them,” he says. But seven months later, a record company manager, Scooter Braun, took him to meet with his boss, Usher. Justin sang for Usher, but his natural singing talent wasn’t enough to impress Usher. Braun knew Bieber was also a self-taught musician who plays the drums, guitar, piano and trumpet. Luckily, it took Usher a short time to realize that Bieber was a future superstar. Usher and Timberlake both wanted to sign (签约) him. It turned out Usher’s trade way was better. He had L. A．Reid backing him up and Scooter had a lot of really good connections in Atlanta. “I always make fun of Usher now and remind him how he blew me off the first time we met.” Justin Bieber’s first single — One Time, produced by Tricky, is about one of Justin’s favorite topics, puppy love. Bieber finds himself maturing (成熟) at a steady rate, while motivating his listeners to struggle for their goals. “I’m looking forward to influencing others in a positive way,” says Justin. “My message is you can do anything if you just put your mind to it. I didn’t have as much as other people did. I think it made me stronger and it built my character. Now I want to go to college and just become a better person.” A natural artistic talent, Justin Bieber is going to be a solid force in music for many years. “I think older people can appreciate my music because I really show my heart when I sing, and it’s not common,” he says. “I think I can grow as an artist and my fans will grow with me.” 68．Why did Justin Bieber put his videos online? A．He wanted to be famous. B．He wanted to get signed by a manager. C．He thought he was really good. D．He wanted to share them with his loved ones. 69．What does the underlined “racked up” in Para. 1 mean? A．Affected. B．Obtained. C．Declined. D．Adopted. 70．Why did Bieber want to be signed by Usher instead of Timberlake? A．Usher was more famous. B．Timberlake didn’t want to hear him sing. C．Usher had a person supporting him. D．Usher said he could be in his music videos. 71．What makes Justin Bieber a good role model? A．He has a positive attitude and works hard for the future. B．He wants to be rich and famous. C．He makes friends with Usher and dresses really well. D．He only cares about money and fame. 72．Why do the older people appreciate Justin Bieber’s music? A．He has good connections with them. B．He motivates them to achieve their goals. C．He can touch their hearts. D．He often makes fun of them. 【答案】68．D 69．B 70．C 71．A 72．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Justin Bieber通过在YouTube上发布自制视频获得关注，最终与Usher签约，他的音乐和个人成长历程激励着粉丝。 68．细节理解题。根据第二段中“In an effort to share his victory with his loved ones, Justin began posting his performance online. “I put my singing videos from the competition on YouTube so that my friends and family could watch them,” he says. (为了和他所爱的人分享他的胜利，Justin开始在网上发布他的表演。他说：“我把比赛中的唱歌视频放到YouTube上，这样我的朋友和家人就可以看了。”)”可知，他把他的视频放到网上是因为他想和他所爱的人分享它们。故选D项。 69．词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“After posting dozens of homemade videos on YouTube in 2007 (2007年，他在YouTube上发布了数十个自制视频)”和下文“over 10,000,000 views from word of mouth (凭借口碑而来的1000万点击量)”可推知，这些视频很棒，帮助Bieber收获了大量的点击浏览量，画线词意思应该是“获得”，与obtained意思一致。故选B项。 70．细节理解题。根据第三段中“It turned out Usher’s trade way was better. He had L. A. Reid backing him up and Scooter had a lot of really good connections in Atlanta. (事实证明，Usher的交易方式更好。他有L. A. Reid做后盾，Scooter在亚特兰大有很多很好的关系)”可知，Bieber希望被Usher签下是因为Usher有人支持。故选C项。 71．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Bieber finds himself maturing (成熟) at a steady rate, while motivating his listeners to struggle for their goals. (Bieber发现自己在以稳定的速度成熟，同时激励他的听众为他们的目标而奋斗)”和第五段中“My message is you can do anything if you just put your mind to it. I didn’t have as much as other people did. I think it made me stronger and it built my character. (我想说的是，只要你用心，你可以做任何事情。我没有其他人拥有的那么多。我认为它让我变得更坚强，塑造了我的性格)”可推知，Bieber对待生活的积极的态度，以及他为未来努力工作的拼劲，使得他成为一个好的榜样。故选A项。 72．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I think older people can appreciate my music because I really show my heart when I sing, and it’s not common (我认为年纪大的人可以欣赏我的音乐，因为我在唱歌的时候真正地表达了我的内心，这并不常见)”可推知，年纪大的人喜欢Justin Bieber的音乐，是因为他用心演唱，能触动他们的心。故选C项。 主题02 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高二上·天津市静海区第六中学·期中） Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends. My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult, I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard. On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before? The next day dad took out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was. 83．Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult? A．He was silent most of the time. B．He was too proud of himself. C．He did not love his children. D．He expected too much of her. 84．When the author went out with her father on weekend, she would feel ________. A．tired B．safe C．nervous D．comfortable 85．What does the author think of her father after her visit to Tucson? A．More critical and strict. B．More talkative. C．Gentle and friendly. D．Proud and hard-working. 86．With whom did the author and her son have lunch at the outdoor cafe? A．Her father. B．One of her father’s friends. C．Her friend. D．Her father and one of her father’s friends. 87．The underlined words “my new friend” in the last paragraph refer to ________. A．the author’s son B．the author’s father C．the friend of the author’s father D．the cafe owner 【答案】83．D 84．C 85．C 86．D 87．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是作者与父亲之间关系的转变，以及在一次探访中重新认识父亲的心路历程。 83．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult, I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was.(小时候我爱他；作为一个女学生和年轻的成年人，我害怕他，对他感到痛苦。他似乎对我不满意，除非我的成绩都是A；如果我男朋友的父亲没有他那么“成功”，他也会不满意)”可知，除非作者成绩是全A，除非作者男朋友的父亲如父亲般成功，否则，父亲对作者都不满意，由此可知，作者年轻时由于父亲对自己期望过高，从而害怕父亲，和父亲相处感到痛苦。故选D项。 84．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.(每当我周末和他出去的时候，我总是挣扎着想要说些什么，时刻保持警惕)”可知，作者与父亲周末出去时，都要时刻保持警惕，由此可知，作者是紧张的。故选C项， 85．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?(那天下午我们一起散步，买了些东西，在街边的桌子上吃了饭，看到儿子滑稽的面部表情，我们大笑起来。父亲挑剔的神气和严格的规定都不见了。这个我认识的父亲是谁，他看起来那么友好，那么有趣？以前是什么阻碍了他？)”可知，作者在拜访父亲那一天，父亲的挑剔眼神和严格规定不见了，变得友好又有趣，这让作者有些不认识自己的父亲了，由此可知，作者在Tucson拜访之后，发现父亲变得温和而又友好。故选C项。 86．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe.(在我拜访的第一天，我们和我父亲的一个朋友在一家露天咖啡馆吃午饭)”可知，作者和她的儿子在户外咖啡馆与父亲以及父亲的朋友吃的午饭。故选D项。 87．词句猜测题。根据尾段中的“After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.(这么多年过去了，我终于看到了父亲的另一面。这样一来，我对我的新朋友很满意。我爸爸，在他亚利桑那州的新家，从他原来的地方回到了我身边)”可知，此处去Tucson拜访父亲，让作者看到了父亲的另一面，对这个新朋友表示满意，那个和善友好的父亲又回到了作者的身边，由此可知，此处的“新朋友”指的是发生转变后的父亲。故选B项。 Passage 2 （2023-2024学年高二上·天津市第一百中学、咸水沽第一中学·期中） When I was young I wanted to be a model, so when a national contest was staged, I convinced my parents to take me for an audition (试演). I was selected and told I had potential. They said that for only $900 I could attend a weekend event which dozens of the most prestigious (有声望的) modeling agencies from around the world would attend. At 13, my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgment and I begged my parents to let me go. We have never been rich, but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed. I imagined being signed by some famous model companies. For months, any boredom or disappointment was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be a real model. I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines! Of course, I wasn’t signed, but what hurt me most was being told that if I grew to 5’9” (about 1.75 metres) I could be a success. I prayed for a growth spurt (冲刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream. I made an appointment with a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $ 500 for classes, $500 for a photo shoot, and $ 300 for other expenses. My parents only agreed after hours and hours of me begging. The agency sent me out on a few auditions, but with every day I didn’t receive a call I grew more depressed. The final straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial (广告) modeling. There was an open call in New York City. We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short I was devastated (感到难以承受的). Years later Ire zed that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn’t actually love modeling, just the idea of it. I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal. The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future. 88．What’s the main reason why the author wanted to be a model? A．She won a national contest. B．She wanted to get reputation and wealth. C．She was urged by some modeling agencies. D．She had full potential to be a successful model. 89．What’s the author’s parents’ attitude toward her dream? A．Encouraging. B．Critical. C．Doubtful. D．Enthusiastic. 90．What was that made the author end her attempt to become a model? A．Her parents were strongly against it. B．She realized that it was impossible for her. C．Even a local modeling agency turned her down. D．She realized that she didn’t actually love the idea of modeling. 91．The underlined phrase “The final straw” probably means A．the last in a series of bad things that happen to make someone very upset angry, etc B．the final result that she was admitted by the model company C．the final audition given by the agency D．the decision that she made at last not to be a model anymore 92．What did the author learn from her experience of struggling to be a model? A．Where there’s a will there’s away. B．Being a model is not that easy. C．We should have our own judgment and should not just follow others. D．We might set unpractical goals but the experiences can help us grow. 【答案】88．B 89．C 90．B 91．A 92．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在她的模特梦的奋斗过程中，意识到我们可能会给自己设立一些不切实际的梦想，但是实现梦想的经历却能帮助我们成长。 88．细节理解题。根据第一段倒数第二句话“At 13, my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgment and I begged my parents to let me go. (13岁时，我对名利的希望笼罩着所有的判断，我恳求父母放我走)”可知，作者在小时候出于对名利的追求才想要成为一名模特。故选B。 89．推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句话“We have never been rich, but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed.(我们从来都不富裕，但他们看到了我的热情并同意了)”以及第三段“My parents only agreed after hours and hours of me begging.(我的父母是在我乞讨了好几个小时后才同意的)”可知，作者是不断地恳求父母，父母才答应她去参加模特比赛。由此可推知，作者的父母对她做模特的梦想持怀疑态度。故选C。 90．推理判断题。根据第三段最后三句话“The final straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial (广告) modeling. There was an open call in New York City. We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short I was devastated(感到难以承受的).(最后一根稻草是在7月份，当时我决定专注于商业模特。纽约市有一个公开电话。我们花了几个小时开车，又等了几个小时，结果被告知我太矮了，我很伤心)”可知，作者被很多的公司拒绝，最后她专注于商业模特的希望也破灭了。由此可推知，她是意识到了她不可能成为模特这件事结束了她成为模特的尝试。故选B。 91．词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句话“The agency sent me out on a few auditions, but with every day I didn’t receive a call I grew more depressed. (经纪公司派我去试镜了几次，但每天我都没有接到电话，我变得越来越沮丧)”以及最后一句话“We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short I was devastated(感到难以承受的).(我们花了几个小时开车，又等了几个小时，结果被告知我太矮了，我很伤心)”可知，作者被拒绝了很多次，最后专注于商业模特的希望也破灭了，所以这件事是一系列坏事中的最后一件，结束了她的梦想。故选A。 92．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Years later Ire zed that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn’t actually love modeling, just the idea of it. I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal. The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future.(几年后，我意识到纽约之行很好，因为它让我注意到我其实并不喜欢模特，只是喜欢它的想法。我想变得特别，我天真地决心实现一个不可能实现的目标。这段经历让我变得更加坚强，这将在未来对我有所帮助)”可知，作者从她努力成为一名模特的经历中学到了有时候人们会设立不切实际的目标，但是经历能够帮助他们成长。故选D。 主题03 人与社会——科学与技术 Passage 1 （2023-2024学年高二上·天津市耀华中学·期中） If Dhruv Rebba, an Indian American, had to live on an isolated island, he would bring a ham radio kit along. “The island wouldn’t have cellular connectivity (蜂窝网络连接), of course. Ham radio would be the best option to contact someone as it uses the ionosphere (电离层) to communicate, instead of cellular towers. That’s why we use it when mobile phone networks are destroyed during natural disasters,” he said in an interview. When Rebba was nine, he received his ham radio technician license—becoming the youngest person of Indian origin then to receive it. “My dad has been a ham radio operator for the past 25years. When I was in the third grade, I convinced him to take me along to the Dayton Hamvention, where I was totally overwhelmed by some cool stuff including Morse code keyers. From then on, I decided to go further in this field,” Rebba said. In 2017, Rebba was part of the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) project. It involves amateur radio operators across the world speaking directly to astronauts through their radio stations. “After three tries, I received the approval. As I have an amateur radio license! was able to make my initial contact. Some 16 students across America were given the chance to ask Joseph M. Acaba who was then on the International Space Station (ISS) 23questions,” Rebba explained. Besides being a ham radio operator, Rebba is also the CEO of Universal Help Foundation. “I once visited my dad’s village in India where I noticed the gap in the standard of living. That’s what made me start Universal Help Foundation—to create an impact.” said Rebba. He named the foundation Universal Help-Foundation rather than an limiting it to environmental sustainability (可持续发展) or disaster relief. Instead, he wanted to bridge the gap. Meanwhile, Rebba hopes to get further high up in space. However, the overall picture of the ham radio field is unpleasant. “The ham population is aging and fewer youngsters are drawn to it. Now we all have cell phones and the younger crowd doesn’t see the everyday use of ha m radio as important,” Rebba added. 1．What characterizes ham radio? A．Being convenient and safe to take along. B．Being a reliable means of communication. C．Being effective in evaluating natural disasters. D．Being quick to repair a broken mobile network. 2．How would Rebba describe the Dayton Hamvention? A．Dull. B．Fair. C．Demanding. D．Inspiring. 3．What did ARISS allow Rebba to do? A．Obtain his amateur radio license. B．Apply for membership of ARISS. C．Contact an astronaut in space via radio. D．Use his self-made radio station on the ISS. 4．What’s Universal Help Foundation mainly committed to? A．Improving the poor’s quality of life. B．Raising people’s environmental awareness. C．Providing disaster relief for remote villages. D．Strengthening the connections among villagers. 5．What’s Rebba concerned about? A．Ham radio is a dying hobby. B．Young people are addicted to cell phones. C．Ham radio is useless in some circumstances. D．Young people attach little importance to technology. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 5．A 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要主要介绍了Dhruv Rebba发明了业余无线电。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Ham radio would be the best option to contact someone as it uses the ionosphere (电离层) to communicate, instead of cellular towers. That’s why we use it when mobile phone networks are destroyed during natural disasters(业余无线电将是联系某人的最佳选择，因为它使用电离层进行通信，而不是手机信号塔。这就是为什么我们在自然灾害期间手机网络被破坏时使用它)”可知，业余无线电是为一种可靠的交流方式。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段中“When I was in the third grade, I convinced him to take me along to the Dayton Hamvention, where I was totally overwhelmed by some cool stuff including Morse code keyers. From then, on, I decided to go further in this field,” Rebba said.(Rebba说“当我三年级的时候，我说服他带我去Dayton Hamvention，在那里我完全被包括摩尔斯电码键盘等一些很酷的东西所淹没。从那时起，我决定在这个领域走得更远。”)”可知，Dayton Hamvention启发了Rebba在无线电这个领域继续前行，由此可推知，Rebba会用“鼓舞人心”这个词来描绘Dayton Hamvention，故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段中“In 2017, Rebba was part of the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) project. It involves amateur radio operators across the world speaking directly to astronauts through their radio stations. “After three tries, I received the approval. As I have an amateur radio license! was able to make my initial contact. (2017年，Rebba是国际空间站(ARISS)项目业余无线电的一部分。它包括世界各地的业余无线电操作员通过他们的无线电台与宇航员直接对话。“经过三次尝试，我得到了批准。因为我有业余无线电执照这能够使我和他们初次联系。”)”可知，ARISS使Rebba通过无线电与太空中的宇航员联系。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中““I once visited my dad’s village in India where I noticed the gap in the standard of living. That’s what made me start Universal Help Foundation—to create an impact.” said Rebba. (“我曾经去过我父亲在印度的村庄，在那里我注意到了生活水平的差距。正是这一点促使我创立了环球帮助基金会(Universal Help Foundation) ，来产生影响。”瑞巴说。)”可知，Universal Help Foundation主要致力于改善穷人的生活水平，故选A。 5．推理判断题。根据最后一段中““The ham population is aging and fewer youngsters are drawn to it. Now we all have cell phones and the younger crowd doesn’t see the everyday use of ha m radio as important,” Rebba added.(Rebba接着说“业余无线的数量正在老龄化，越来越少的年轻人被它吸引。现在我们都有了手机，年轻人不再认为每天使用业余无线电是重要的。”)”可知，喜欢业余无线电的人都是老年人，喜欢它的年轻人很少，由此可推知，Rebba担心这一爱好将慢慢消失，故选A。 主题04 人与自我——做人与做事 Passage 1 （2023-2024学年高二上·天津市西青区·期中） Five years ago, a truly unforgettable event took place. My wife and I were celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary (纪念日) that year. To our delight, it was a splendid event, lovingly hosted by our sons just for us. Our dear, old friends gave us a wonderful surprise with their thoughtful gifts and heartfelt congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana, and continued to Yellowstone National Park. It was a cold spring day, and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Alongside the road, there was still a great amount of snow there. The scenery was so impressive that we made lots of stops to record memories with my camera. At the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the centre of my camera lens. There were not many cars on the road. Sometimes, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, who wore dirty clothes, parked behind our cars. Approaching us, he spoke only a simple command, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife.” I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could offer our thanks. Unexpectedly, the photo he took is now one of the most valuable and prized of our trip. In that unexpected encounter, I absorbed a lesson in the most unlikely of places. We should never judge a man by his appearance. To the motorcyclist who may one day read this story and remember us: we wish to extend our deepest appreciation and a heartfelt “Thank you” for the kindness you showed us that day. 6．What do we know about the trip? A．It was a gift for their wedding anniversary. B．It was a suggestion from their friends. C．It was in the late autumn five years ago.

If You Hold a Seed The author and illustrator Elly MacKay’s illustrations tell this quiet story about a little boy who plants a seed and patiently cultivates and cares for it over the seasons until it reaches maturity. This story also serves as a metaphor (隐喻) for working towards a dream or goal with care and patience and reaching it over time, which makes If You Hold a Seed a good graduation gift. Only One You In this picture book written and illustrated by Linda Kranz, a mother and a father decide it is time to share their wisdom with their son, Adri. While Adri’s parents’ words are indeed wise, it is the mixed media artwork illustrating their meanings that makes this book so special.
