Have you ever heard of Model United Nations (MUN:模拟联合国) ? Do you want to take part in MUN meetings? Some students have made their dreams come true by joining in MUN activities. Here are what they want to share with you:
Getting closer to dreams
Wei Hua, from Qian Xuesen Middle School in Beijing, has joined in MUN activities many times. “MUN activities cover lots of topics. For example, the international court (法庭) in MUN really supports my law studies goals. It makes me closer to my dream,” said Wei.
Eye-opening experience
Chen Yue, a student at Foreign Languages School in Zhejiang, has been joining in MUN since Grade 7. “When I represented (代表) other countries, I stand in their shoes to think and speak. This helps me form my own ideas. What’s more, MUN has opened my eyes to what’s happening all over the world,” said Chen.
Bridging the gap (弥合差距)
“Schools in the West are now using MUN to help mix different subjects together, just like schools in the East do. So this program has bridged the gap between schools and made educational impartial among different places,” said Hu Qiang, from a middle school in Guangzhou.
Students above have experienced rich MUN activities. MUN doesn’t just help them to get closer to their big dreams, it also helps them think further and do better in school and life. Want to join MUN? Find more information on our school website.
26. Why does Wei Hua think that the MUN International Court brings him closer to his dream?
A. Because MUN activities cover topics related to law.
B. Because he wants to be an engineer.
C. Because he enjoys all the activities in MUN.
D. Because he hopes to understand international court courses.
27. Which sentence has the closest meaning with the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. I should speak and think properly. B. I think standing and speaking are also correct.
C. I also speak and think from the others’ views. D. I believe actions speak louder than words.
28. What does the underlined word “impartial” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Fair. B. Interesting. C. Meaningless. D. Exciting.
29. How does the writer develop his idea in this passage?
A. By explaining reasons. B. By giving examples.
C. By telling stories. D. By comparing differences.
30. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. MUN: A Bridge to Dreams. B. MUN: A Program for Students.
C. MUN: A Way to Make Friends. D. MUN: A Platform to Show Talents.
【答案】26. A 27. C 28. A 29. B 30. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了模拟联合国 (MUN) 活动及其对学生积极影响,通过几位学生的亲身经历,展示了MUN如何帮助学生实现梦想、开阔视野、弥合教育差距。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据“For example, the international court (法庭) in MUN really supports my law studies goals. It makes me closer to my dream…”可知,模拟联合国中的国际法庭活动支持了Wei Hua的法律学习目标,使他离自己的梦想更近了。这说明MUN活动涵盖了与法律相关的主题。故选A。
【27题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“When I represented (代表) other countries…”可知,Chen Yue是在扮演和代表其他国家。要做好代表,就必须站在这些国家的立场上去思考和发言。因此,可以推断I stand in their shoes的意思是“站在他们的立场上”。与选项C“我也从他人的观点出发思考和发言”意思一致。故选C。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“So this program has bridged the gap between schools and made educational impartial among different places…”可知,弥合差距目的是为了实现某种积极的状态。made educational impartial among different places就是这一积极状态的结果。既然“差距”被弥合了,那么不同地区间的教育就变得更加“公平”了。因此,impartial的意思应为“公平的”。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Wei Hua, from Qian Xuesen Middle School in Beijing, has joined in MUN activities for many times.”和“Chen Yue, a student at Foreign Languages School in Zhejiang, has been joining MUN since Grade 7.”以及“…Hu Qiang, from a middle school in Guangzhou.”可知,作者为了阐述MUN对学生的好处,分别列举了来自北京的Wei Hua、来自浙江的Chen Yue和来自广州的Hu Qiang三位学生的具体事例和引语来支撑自己的观点。故选B。
【30题详解】
最佳标题题。文章通过多个学生的例子,说明了模拟联合国 (MUN) 活动如何帮助他们实现个人目标 (如Wei Hua的法律梦) 、开阔眼界 (如Chen Yue的经历) 、促进教育公平 (如Hu Qiang所说) 。这些都体现了MUN作为一个平台,帮助学生们实现各自“梦想”的主题。A Bridge to Dreams意为“通往梦想的桥梁”最合适做文章的标题。故选A。
C

He decided to dig a tunnel (隧道) into the king’s palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure the length (长度) of its string, a kind of rope. In this way, he could decide how long the tunnel should be. His men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string, they knew how to dig it up.
Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown to give thanks for a good harvest. Today in Japan, flying kites is regarded as part of a celebration at the beginning of a new year.
Kites have been used for scientific purposes in the Western world. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin tied a key to a kite and flew it in a storm to find out that lightning was a form of electricity. In the 1890s, Lawrence Hardgrave invented the box kite to test ideas about flight. The United States Weather Bureau has used box kites to collect weather information for 35 years.
