He spilled (洒) ink on my books and my hands. He messed up a picture of my favourite sports star. I feel quite terrible. What should I do? Can you give me some good advice? Anna Dear Anna, It seems this boy is really rude. I’m sorry that he has been so mean to you. Nobody likes to be bullied or pushed around. First, it’ll be a good idea to talk to this bully directly and tell him to stop being so mean to you. Bullies always think that their victims (受害者) will be too scared to talk back and stand up for themselves. If you do this, it will probably surprise him and make him less likely to bully you in the future. Second, you can also ask a friend to stand with you when you face this bully. It’s good to have a friend on your side if you’ re feeling nervous or scared. Finally, you should go to your teacher for help. He or she can punish this bully. Mike Dear Anna, In fact, I have also had a similar experience. I’m a girl who comes from a small village. Once there was a beautiful and rich girl who was mean to me. She was jealous of my grades, so she told other girls not to talk with me. Asking for help and being strong enough to fight back can help you. It was difficult, but I fought back. I talked with her and asked her why she hated me. If I did something wrong, I could apologize. But it was nothing like that. I asked our monitor for help. The monitor talked with the other girls. They gradually came to understand my personality and background. I also tried to help them with Maths. Now, I don’t feel alienated (疏远的) from them. Wendy 1. What does Anna want to get suggestions on? A. Health problems. B. Learning difficulties. C. School bullying. D. Environmental protection. 2. According to the passage, what does Mike suggest doing? A. Asking the bully to stand with Anna. B. Asking a friend to help Anna punish the bully. C. Calling the police for help. D. Getting some help from the teacher. 3. Which is closest to the meaning of the underlined word “mean” in English? A. Unhelpful. B. Unlucky. C. Unkind. D. Uncomfortable. 4. In the letter, why did Wendy share her own experience? A. Because she wanted to make Anna feel happy. B. Because she wanted to tell Anna to bully back. C. Because she wanted to show Anna her sadness. D. Because she wanted to help Anna out of trouble. 5. By comparing Mike’s and Wendy’s suggestions, which is not TRUE? A. They both suggested asking others for help after being bullied. B. They both thought the bullying behavior should be stopped. C. They both advised Anna to take action against the bullies. D. They both shared their own experiences of being bullied at school. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. C 4. D 5.

With wind it steals in night; Mute, it moistens each thing. O’er wild lanes dark cloud spreads; In boat a lantern looms. Dawn sees saturated reds; The town’s heavy with blooms. (Translated by Xu Yuanchong) When Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712-770) wrote this poem, he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes he went to farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers. The very first word, “good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good indeed, as it “knows” the right time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to know that it should come in time for the farmer’s busy plowing (农耕) season. When the rain comes, it appears during the night. Unlike the thunder (雷) and lightning of summer storms, the quiet spring rain makes its contributions (贡献) without being known. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy, showing that there will be enough rain during the night. Then the poet imagines: tomorrow morning, all of the flowers in the city will bloom (盛开) after the rain. 1. The poet Du Fu died when he was ________ years old. A. 58 B. 57 C. 67 D. 68 2. What’s the main idea of the poem according to the text? A. The poet’s love for the wind. B. The poet’s love for spring. C. The poet’s care for farmers. D. The poet’s care for the field. 3. Which of the following is mentioned in the text?   ①wind  ②snowstorm  ③cloud  ④rainbow  ⑤thunder A. ② ③ ④ B. ② ④ ⑤ C. ① ④ ⑤ D. ① ③ ⑤ 4. Why does the poet use the word “knows” in the first line of the poem? A. To introduce the poem. B. To describe the rain’s smartness. C. To show the farmer’s busy work. D. To tell the right time of rain coming. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D 4. D 【解析】本文主要介绍了杜甫的一首诗《春夜喜雨》，并介绍了诗中蕴含的意义。 1. 推理判断题。根据诗后的第一段中的“When Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712-770) wrote this poem, he was living in Chengdu”可知，770减712等于58，杜甫在58岁时去世的，故选A。 2. 主旨大意题。根据诗后第一段中的“The poem shows his care for farmers”可知，这首诗表达了对农民的关怀，故选C。 3. 细节理解题。根据诗中的“With wind it steals in night”和“O’er wild lanes dark cloud spreads”和倒数第二段中的“Unlike the thunder”可知，诗中提到了风、云和雷，故选D。 4. 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段中的“Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to know that it should come in time for the farmer’s busy plowing (农耕) season”可知，诗人用拟人的手法描述雨水来的时机非常合适。故选D。 1 / 15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题07 阅读理解之应用文 话题1 建议与调查 话题2 广告与介绍 话题3 制作及诗歌 话题1：建议与调查 Passage 1（2024-2025·深圳罗湖区翠园初级中学） Dear Mike and Wendy, I have been bullied by the boy who sits behind me. He spilled (洒) ink on my books and my hands. He messed up a picture of my favourite sports star. I feel quite terrible. What should I do? Can you give me some good advice? Anna Dear Anna, It seems this boy is really rude. I’m sorry that he has been so mean to you. Nobody likes to be bullied or pushed around. First, it’ll be a good idea to talk to this bully directly and tell him to stop being so mean to you.

If you do this, it will probably surprise him and make him less likely to bully you in the future. Second, you can also ask a friend to stand with you when you face this bully. It’s good to have a friend on your side if you’ re feeling nervous or scared. Finally, you should go to your teacher for help. He or she can punish this bully. Mike Dear Anna, In fact, I have also had a similar experience. I’m a girl who comes from a small village. Once there was a beautiful and rich girl who was mean to me. She was jealous of my grades, so she told other girls not to talk with me. Asking for help and being strong enough to fight back can help you. It was difficult, but I fought back. I talked with her and asked her why she hated me. If I did something wrong, I could apologize. But it was nothing like that. I asked our monitor for help. The monitor talked with the other girls. They gradually came to understand my personality and background. I also tried to help them with Maths. Now, I don’t feel alienated (疏远的) from them. Wendy 1. What does Anna want to get suggestions on?

With wind it steals in night; Mute, it moistens each thing. O’er wild lanes dark cloud spreads; In boat a lantern looms. Dawn sees saturated reds; The town’s heavy with blooms. (Translated by Xu Yuanchong) When Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712-770) wrote this poem, he was living in Chengdu. Sometimes he went to farm in the field. The poem shows his care for farmers. The very first word, “good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good indeed, as it “knows” the right time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to know that it should come in time for the farmer’s busy plowing (农耕) season. When the rain comes, it appears during the night. Unlike the thunder (雷) and lightning of summer storms, the quiet spring rain makes its contributions (贡献) without being known. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy, showing that there will be enough rain during the night. Then the poet imagines: tomorrow morning, all of the flowers in the city will bloom (盛开) after the rain. 1. The poet Du Fu died when he was ________ years old. A. 58 B. 57 C. 67 D. 68 2.
