2026年英语中考倒计时250天-每日一卷 Day 2 一、阅读理解（共25小题，每小题2分，共50分） A Over the weekend, I visited the Frida Kahlo Museum, also known as La Casa Azul, in Mexico. It was once the home of Frida Kahlo, and now it is a museum about her. Kahlo is a famous artist known for her special self-portraits (自画像). Her paintings often look at themes like identity (身份), the human body and death. When Kahlo was 18, she was in a bus accident. When she slowly recovered in the hospital, Kahlo taught herself to paint. Many of her works are self-portraits. In one painting, she painted herself with a unibrow (一字眉) to show that there is not just one standard (标准) of beauty. As I walked around the house, I learned more about her life. There were many photos of her and her family. There was also a painting of her dad, named Portrait of My Father. Although she passed away 70 years ago, the museum has kept her workspace very well. It feels like she has just stepped out for a while and might come back at any time. There was also a big garden area with a fountain (喷泉) and some different plants. I wondered if they were as old as her or if they were added later on. To be honest, I’ve always wanted to learn more about Kahlo since she is an idol in Mexico. This experience is perfect for that. If you ever visit Mexico and are interested in its history and art, this is a great place you should not miss. 根据短文内容选择最佳答案。 1．What is La Casa Azul according to the passage? A．A museum. B．A painting. C．A person. 2．What does the underlined word “recovered” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Turned worse. B．Gave up. C．Got better. 3．Why did she paint herself with a unibrow?

Although he met difficulty at the 2025 World Cup semifinals (半决赛), he was still optimistic (乐观的). At the 2025 Macau World Cup, after winning all his group matches easily, Wang Chuqin entered the semifinals with high hope. However, his competitor, Hugo from Brazil, played better. Although leading 3-2 at first, Wang lost the final two rounds, ending with a 3-4 defeat (失败). This meant he missed the chance to compete in the final match. After the match, Wang did not blame (责怪) bad luck or other reasons. Instead, he said, “I need to improve my skills and stay calm under pressure.” Wang explained that losing taught him important lessons. “Every failure helps me grow.” he said. He also thanked his fans and promised to work harder for future competitions. Wang’s story shows that failure is part of life. What truly matters is how we face it. By staying active and learning from mistakes, we can turn difficulties into stepping stones for success. 根据语篇内容做出判断，正确选A、错误选B、未提及选C。(未提及表示在语篇中没有提到句中信息) 6．Wang Chuqin won the 2025 World Cup semifinals with a score of 4-3. 7．Wang Chuqin blamed his defeat on bad luck and other reasons. 8．Wang Chuqin never lost any matches before the 2025 World Cup. 9．Wang Chuqin promised to train harder for future competitions after the defeat. 10．The story shows that failure is part of life and we should learn from it. C On December 24th, children around the world are waiting for Santa Claus (圣诞老人) to bring them gifts. But do you know that some people in China don’t like Christmas so much? Last month, 10 students from Tsinghua (清华), Peking and Renmin Universities said Santa Claus wasn’t welcome in China. “Christmas is becoming more and more popular in China, while people do not talk much of traditional Chinese festivals, like the Spring Festival,” said the students in a letter. They asked people to stop sending Christmas cards and buying gifts for their children. Instead, they said, we should spend more time on our own festivals. There are people who have the same ideas. In Hunan, several people went out on the street on Christmas Day. They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy (书法). “We should care more about our own culture,” said one of them. But others have different ideas. “Having Christmas helps us know more about foreign cultures. It is good for us to make friends.” said Liu Yang, a 14-year-old boy from Shanghai. Another boy, Sun Long, 13, from Beijing said, “My school held a big party on Christmas Day. We played games and shared gifts with each other. I think we have got closer.” 11．On Christmas Eve, children are looking forward to ________ from Santa Claus. A．money B．love C．gifts 12．Who asked people to stop sending gifts to children? A．Santa Claus. B．10 university students. C．Several people in Hunan. 13．Which of the following is the ten university students’ opinion? A．Christmas is a great festival for us. B．Christmas is not a great festival for foreigners. C．We shouldn’t waste time having Christmas. 14．Why do some Chinese like Christmas, according to the passage? A．Because they can learn more about foreign cultures. B．Because they can write songs and poems. C．Because they can send gifts to their children. 15．________ held a big party on Christmas Day. A．Liu Yang’s school B．Sun Long’s school C．Tsinghua University D Choose the best choice from A to F to finish the dialogue. You have one more answer. Each choice should be used only once.

It’s on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. A: Oh, 18 B: To remember an ancient poet, Qu Yuan. A: Aha, I see. 19 B: We usually eat zongzi and watch dragon boat races on that day. A: Zongzi? They must be delicious. B: Yes, and I really like zongzi with meat. But do you know what I like best about the festival? A: 20 B: The dragon boat races. They’re exciting to watch. Maybe you can celebrate the festival with my family next week. A: Of course I’d love to. Thanks for your invitation. A．Please tell me about it. B．why do you celebrate it? C．How is it going with you? D．What do you like best? E．I hope so. F．What do you usually do on that day? E When I was new in junior high school, I knew no one. Most students talked only to people they knew, so I felt lonely. I had to come home crying. Mother asked me what the worst time was and I said it was at lunch time. She said, “You are not the only lonely person. There are others that are alone. Tomorrow I want you to look around the lunchroom to see if other people are eating by themselves. I want you to go to one of them and ask if you can join him or her.” The next day, I did look around and asked the person who was already sitting alone. The young girl was very happy. I shared my story with the girl and the next day we met for lunch and found some other people who were alone. This began a very interesting approach (方法) to life. The lessons that I learned from that experience have stayed with me all my life. I have few problems approaching (接近) new people. I learned that I am not alone. Most people are just like you and me. We all want to be noticed, and to have someone to be interested in listening to us. Answer the questions according to what you read. 21．What was the writer’s worst time in junior high school at first? 22．Did the writer’s mother think the writer was the only lonely person? 23．What did the writer do after asking the young girl? 24．The writer has few problems approaching new people in her life, does she? 25．What’s your opinion about friends? 二、完形填空(10小题，每小题1分，共10分) The New Year party was usually held at my aunt’s house and my favorite part was the apple cake.
