The van’s lights cut through the deep darkness of the Massachusetts roads. It was 3 a.m., and we knew we were lost. My son John sat in the back, quiet and scared. His hands held tightly onto the seat. My husband, Karl, yawned (打哈欠), very tired from driving. Every time we took a wrong turn, my heart beat fast.
At a truck stop, a woman working there just shook her head when I asked how to get to Merridale. Then I saw four people in black leather jackets. Their clothes had pictures of skulls, and metal chains hung from their belts. I thought, “These must be the Hell’s Angels. What if they are bad?” My hands started to sweat, and I wanted to run back to our van.
“Don’t worry,” one man said. He had a big beard and a kind smile. “We will show you the way.” I wasn’t sure if I could trust them. John whispered, “Mom, they look terrifying.” But Karl said, “We need help.” So, we followed their motorcycles reluctantly.
The road got even darker, and the trees looked like big, dark shapes. I told Karl, “If they stop, we will drive very fast.” But after about an hour, they pointed to a sign. It said: “Merridale Road.” I could not believe it! As they drove away, one man shouted, “Good Trip!”
Months later, I saw them on TV. Everyone around them looked afraid, but I smiled. Those “terrifying” bikers were kind, like angels in leather jackets. That night, I learned an important lesson: never judge people by how they look. True kindness often appears in the most unexpected forms, reminding us to always look beyond appearances and open our hearts to understanding.
4. Why did the family stop at a truck stop?
A. To ask for directions. B. To take a rest.

7. Which would be the best title for this text?
A. How to Find the Way at Night B. Getting Lost in the Dark
C. Dangerous Bikers on the Road D. Kindness in Unexpected Forms

Currently, the ability to speak English fluently has become a necessity for individuals and countries to participate in the global economy. This is particularly true for countries that heavily rely on international trade and investment. Singapore is a perfect example of such a country.
Singapore is a small city-state located in Southeast Asia. Despite its small size, it has become one of the most prosperous (繁荣的) and innovative economies in the world. This nation has gained a reputation for having a good quality of life, well-developed infrastructure (基础设施), and a favorable climate for businesses. While there are four official languages in Singapore — English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, English is the most commonly used language in business, education, and government.
English has played a crucial role in Singapore’s economic development. The country’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, acknowledged the significance of English in the international business environment and made it a priority to promote English learning in Singapore. He saw English as a tool to connect Singapore to the world and attract foreign investment. The government carried out policies to promote English learning, such as making English the medium of instruction in schools and providing financial support for teachers to teach English.
As a result of these policies, Singaporeans have become proficient (精通的) in English, and this has given them a competitive edge in the global economy. Singapore is home to many multinational corporations, and English proficiency is a critical factor for these companies when selecting employees. Singaporeans’ proficiency in English has also made it easier for them to conduct business with other countries, particularly those in the Western world. As a consequence, the country started marching forward steadily towards prosperity.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A. English fluency is a must for every person.
B. The global economy relies on international trade.
C. English is highly important in the world of business.
D. Singapore particularly focuses on global communication.
9. What can we learn about Singapore from the passage?
A. It has a favorable climate to live in. B. It has gained fame for its innovation.
C. Its mainly-used official language is English. D. It’s known for producing high-quality products.
10. What did Lee Kuan Yew do to promote English learning?
A. He was committed to attracting foreign investment.
B. He supported schools to include more English classes.
C. He attached great importance to English learning in Singapore.
D. He made policies to protect the business environment in Singapore.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. English, the Global Language B. The Road to a Prosperous Country
C. Policies Leading to the Success of Singapore D. English Promoting Singapore’s Development
D
As the most popular individual sport in America, jogging has enjoyed great popularity among people. The plain truth is that jogging is a cheap, quick and efficient way to maintain physical fitness.
The most useful sort of exercise is the exercise that develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory (循环的) systems If these systems are fit, the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies. Running trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth noting that this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America.
Only one sort of equipment is needed—a good pair of shoes. Physicians advise beginning joggers not to run in tennis or gym shoes. Many design advances have been made in only the last several years that make excellent running shoes necessary if a runner wishes to develop as quickly as possible, with as little chance of injury as possible. A good running shoe will have a soft pad for absorbing (缓冲) shock, as well as a slightly built-up heel and a full heel-cup that will give the knee and ankle more stability. A wise investment in good shoes will prevent the foot, ankle and knee injuries and will also enable the wearer to run on paved or soft surfaces.
No other special equipment is needed; you can jog in any clothing you desire, even your street clothes. In cold weather, several layers of clothing are better than one heavy sweater or coat. If joggers are wearing several layers of clothing, they can add or remove layers as conditions change.
It takes surprisingly little time to develop the ability to run. The American Jogging Association has a twelve-week program designed to move from a fifteen-minute walk to a thirty-minute run. A measure of common sense, a physical examination, and a planned schedule are all it takes.
12. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. It introduces jogging as a useful and practical sport.
B. It describes the type of clothing needed for jogging.
C. It distinguishes between jogging and other sports events
D It provides scientific evidence of the benefits of jogging.
13. Why is wearing several layers of clothing in winter better recommended?
A. It can keep warmer. B. It is a popular trend.
C. It looks much more fashionable. D. It’s easier to adjust when necessary.
14. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Jogging needs no special equipment but long-time practice.
B. For beginning joggers, tennis or gym shoes are better choices.
C. Jogging can do good to the heart, lungs and help reduce heart disease.
D. A pair of good running shoes with a full heel-cup is designed to prevent shock.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards jogging?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Neutral. D. Objective.

My parents came to the US from India in the 1960s, along with other immigrants (移民) from India. Back then, there were few Indians anywhere around the US. My father came to Kansas, where he would get his Ph. D. Six months later, my mother came with the three of us kids—my sister, my brother, and me. We were just six, five and three years old then.
It was the very first winter when we were in Kansas. It was so cold, but we didn’t have heavy coats or warm clothes. We didn’t have an idea of how cold it really could be in the Midwest, and there was a new surprise every day. We didn’t have a car or anything like that, and my dad didn’t have a US driver’s license. But anyway, my father was studying for his Ph. D. , and he would walk up and down a big hill to and from the campus on a regular basis.
Since I was three years old, I didn’t go to school, but my sister and brother were in school. My father had to walk down the big hill to take them to school every day and then walk back up the hill to go to university. After about three weeks of living like this, a woman called Valerie, whose son John was in the same class as my brother, started noticing them. On a very cold snowy morning, when they went to school as usual, Valerie passed by. She pulled up and said, “I see you on the way every day. Don’t you feel cold without coats?” My father responded, “We didn’t expect the weather would be so cold in Kansas.” Valerie said, “Maybe I can take your daughter and son to school. Would you like a ride?”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
My father was shocked by Valerie’s kindness and could hardly believe his ears.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As the winter went on, Valerie’s small act of kindness grew into something much deeper.

The van’s lights cut through the deep darkness of the Massachusetts roads. It was 3 a.m., and we knew we were lost. My son John sat in the back, quiet and scared. His hands held tightly onto the seat. My husband, Karl, yawned (打哈欠), very tired from driving. Every time we took a wrong turn, my heart beat fast.
At a truck stop, a woman working there just shook her head when I asked how to get to Merridale. Then I saw four people in black leather jackets. Their clothes had pictures of skulls, and metal chains hung from their belts. I thought, “These must be the Hell’s Angels. What if they are bad?” My hands started to sweat, and I wanted to run back to our van.
“Don’t worry,” one man said. He had a big beard and a kind smile. “We will show you the way.” I wasn’t sure if I could trust them. John whispered, “Mom, they look terrifying.” But Karl said, “We need help.” So, we followed their motorcycles reluctantly.
The road got even darker, and the trees looked like big, dark shapes. I told Karl, “If they stop, we will drive very fast.” But after about an hour, they pointed to a sign. It said: “Merridale Road.” I could not believe it! As they drove away, one man shouted, “Good Trip!”
Months later, I saw them on TV. Everyone around them looked afraid, but I smiled. Those “terrifying” bikers were kind, like angels in leather jackets. That night, I learned an important lesson: never judge people by how they look. True kindness often appears in the most unexpected forms, reminding us to always look beyond appearances and open our hearts to understanding.
4. Why did the family stop at a truck stop?
A. To ask for directions. B. To take a rest.
C. To buy food. D. To meet friends.
5. What does the underlined word “reluctantly” in paragraph 3 mean?

6. What is the author’s attitude towards the bikers in the end.?
A. Afraid and doubtful. B. Thankful and understanding.
C. Angry and confused. D. Uninterested and uncaring.
7. Which would be the best title for this text?

C. Dangerous Bikers on the Road D. Kindness in Unexpected Forms
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。详细叙述了作者和家人在深夜迷路后,遇到一群外表看起来有些吓人的摩托车手,并最终得到他们帮助找到目的地的经历。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“It was 3 a.m., and we knew we were lost.(当时是凌晨3点,我们知道我们迷路了)”以及第二段“At a truck stop, a woman working there just shook her head when I asked how to get to Merridale.(在一个卡车停靠站,当我问怎么去梅里代尔时,一个在那里工作的女人只是摇了摇头)”可知,这家人停在卡车站是为了问路。故选A项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前文““Don’t worry,” one man said. He had a big beard and a kind smile. “We will show you the way.” I wasn’t sure if I could trust them. John whispered, “Mom, they look terrifying.” But Karl said, “We need help.”(“别担心,”一个人说。他留着大胡子,面带和蔼的微笑。“我们会给你带路的。”我不确定我是否能信任他们。约翰低声说:“妈妈,他们看起来很可怕。”但卡尔说:“我们需要帮助。”)”以及后文“The road got even darker, and the trees looked like big, dark shapes. I told Karl, “If they stop, we will drive very fast.”(路变得更黑了,树看起来像又大又黑的形状。我对卡尔说:“如果他们停下来,我们就开得很快。”)”可知,有人愿意给作者一家带路,但是作者不知道能不能信任他们,儿子甚至有点害怕,可是这一家人真的需要帮助,所以推知应是不情愿的跟随他们,推知reluctantly应是“不情愿地”之意,和C项意思相近。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Those “terrifying” bikers were kind, like angels in leather jackets. That night, I learned an important lesson: never judge people by how they look. True kindness often appears in the most unexpected forms, reminding us to always look beyond appearances and open our hearts to understanding.(那些“可怕的”骑摩托车的人很善良,就像穿着皮夹克的天使。那天晚上,我学到了重要的一课:永远不要以貌取人。真正的善良常常以最意想不到的形式出现,提醒我们要超越表象,敞开心扉去理解)”可知,作者称这些摩托车手为“穿皮夹克的天使”,并认识到“不要以貌取人”,表达了对他们的感激和理解。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“True kindness often appears in the most unexpected forms, reminding us to always look beyond appearances and open our hearts to understanding.(真正的善良常常以最意想不到的形式出现,提醒我们要超越表象,敞开心扉去理解)”并通读全文可知,全文通过一次迷路经历,传达了“真正的善意常以意想不到的形式出现”的主题,所以D项“Kindness in Unexpected Forms(意想不到的善意)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。

Currently, the ability to speak English fluently has become a necessity for individuals and countries to participate in the global economy. This is particularly true for countries that heavily rely on international trade and investment. Singapore is a perfect example of such a country.
Singapore is a small city-state located in Southeast Asia. Despite its small size, it has become one of the most prosperous (繁荣的) and innovative economies in the world. This nation has gained a reputation for having a good quality of life, well-developed infrastructure (基础设施), and a favorable climate for businesses. While there are four official languages in Singapore — English, Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, English is the most commonly used language in business, education, and government.
English has played a crucial role in Singapore’s economic development. The country’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, acknowledged the significance of English in the international business environment and made it a priority to promote English learning in Singapore. He saw English as a tool to connect Singapore to the world and attract foreign investment. The government carried out policies to promote English learning, such as making English the medium of instruction in schools and providing financial support for teachers to teach English.
As a result of these policies, Singaporeans have become proficient (精通的) in English, and this has given them a competitive edge in the global economy. Singapore is home to many multinational corporations, and English proficiency is a critical factor for these companies when selecting employees. Singaporeans’ proficiency in English has also made it easier for them to conduct business with other countries, particularly those in the Western world. As a consequence, the country started marching forward steadily towards prosperity.

As the most popular individual sport in America, jogging has enjoyed great popularity among people. The plain truth is that jogging is a cheap, quick and efficient way to maintain physical fitness.
The most useful sort of exercise is the exercise that develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory (循环的) systems If these systems are fit, the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies. Running trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth noting that this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America.
Only one sort of equipment is needed—a good pair of shoes. Physicians advise beginning joggers not to run in tennis or gym shoes. Many design advances have been made in only the last several years that make excellent running shoes necessary if a runner wishes to develop as quickly as possible, with as little chance of injury as possible. A good running shoe will have a soft pad for absorbing (缓冲) shock, as well as a slightly built-up heel and a full heel-cup that will give the knee and ankle more stability. A wise investment in good shoes will prevent the foot, ankle and knee injuries and will also enable the wearer to run on paved or soft surfaces.
No other special equipment is needed; you can jog in any clothing you desire, even your street clothes. In cold weather, several layers of clothing are better than one heavy sweater or coat. If joggers are wearing several layers of clothing, they can add or remove layers as conditions change.
It takes surprisingly little time to develop the ability to run. The American Jogging Association has a twelve-week program designed to move from a fifteen-minute walk to a thirty-minute run. A measure of common sense a physical examination, and a planned schedule are all it takes.
12. What’s the main idea of this passage?
A. It introduces jogging as a useful and practical sport.
B. It describes the type of clothing needed for jogging.
C. It distinguishes between jogging and other sports events
D. It provides scientific evidence of the benefits of jogging.
13. Why is wearing several layers of clothing in winter better recommended?
A. It can keep warmer. B. It is a popular trend.
C. It looks much more fashionable. D. It’s easier to adjust when necessary.
14. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Jogging needs no special equipment but long-time practice.
B. For beginning joggers, tennis or gym shoes are better choices.
C. Jogging can do good to the heart, lungs and help reduce heart disease.
D. A pair of good running shoes with a full heel-cup is designed to prevent shock.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards jogging?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Neutral. D. Objective.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】

Yet family members are there for you whenever you need them.(建立健康的家庭关系对所有类型的家庭来说都至关重要。如果没有健康的家庭关系,那么在面临危机时,可能会让人感觉无人可依靠。但无论何时你需要帮助,家人都会陪伴在你身边)”可知,本句承上启下,说明健康家庭关系的养成条件。故G项“健康的家庭关系并非自然而然就能形成——它们是需要时间与努力去培养的”符合语境。故选G。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My parents came to the US from India in the 1960s, along with other immigrants (移民) from India. Back then, there were few Indians anywhere around the US. My father came to Kansas, where he would get his Ph. D. Six months later, my mother came with the three of us kids—my sister, my brother, and me. We were just six, five and three years old then.
It was the very first winter when we were in Kansas. It was so cold, but we didn’t have heavy coats or warm clothes. We didn’t have an idea of how cold it really could be in the Midwest, and there was a new surprise every day. We didn’t have a car or anything like that, and my dad didn’t have a US driver’s license. But anyway, my father was studying for his Ph. D. , and he would walk up and down a big hill to and from the campus on a regular basis.
Since I was three years old, I didn’t go to school, but my sister and brother were in school. My father had to walk down the big hill to take them to school every day and then walk back up the hill to go to university. After about three weeks of living like this, a woman called Valerie, whose son John was in the same class as my brother, started noticing them. On a very cold snowy morning, when they went to school as usual, Valerie passed by. She pulled up and said, “I see you on the way every day. Don’t you feel cold without coats?” My father responded, “We didn’t expect the weather would be so cold in Kansas.” Valerie said, “Maybe I can take your daughter and son to school. Would you like a ride?”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
My father was shocked by Valerie’s kindness and could hardly believe his ears.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As the winter went on, Valerie’s small act of kindness grew into something much deeper.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
My father was shocked by Valerie’s kindness and could hardly believe his ears. He stood there for a moment, staring at Valerie with a mix of surprise and gratitude. “That... that would be so kind of you,” he stammered, brushing the snow off his sleeves. My sister and brother, who had been huddling against the cold, looked up at Valerie with bright eyes. From that day on, Valerie picked up my siblings every morning. Sometimes, she’d roll down the window and wave at my father as he walked to campus, and once she even left a thermos of hot cocoa in the car for the kids. It wasn’t just a ride — it was a little ray of warmth in our cold winter.
As the winter went on, Valerie’s small act of kindness grew into something much deeper. She learned that we didn’t have warm coats, so she brought over some of John’s old winter jackets for my sister and brother. When she found out my mother missed Indian spices, she even drove to a nearby ethnic store to buy some for her. On weekends, Valerie would invite our family over for dinner, where John played with us kids while our parents chatted. That winter, we didn’t just get a ride to school — we gained a friend. Valerie’s kindness made us feel less like strangers in a new country, and taught me that even small acts can make a big difference.
