Passage 1
(2025 广东)Chen Mei, a 32-year-old community worker in Guangzhou, has been helping elderly residents learn to use smartphones for 4 years. Many old people in her community used to feel “left out” because they couldn’t order takeout, pay bills online, or video-call their grandchildren — all of which require smartphone skills.
To solve this problem, Chen started a “Smartphone Class” in 2020. Every Saturday morning, she meets with 15-20 elderly people in the community center. She teaches them simple skills first: how to unlock the phone, how to open WeChat, and how to send voice messages. Later, she moves to more useful skills, like ordering groceries on JD Daojia or checking medical appointment results on the hospital’s app.
Chen’s classes are popular. Mrs. Li, 78, said, “Before, I had to ask my son to pay my electricity bill every month. Now I can do it myself! I even video-call my granddaughter in Beijing every weekend.” To make it easier for the elderly to remember, Chen writes down step-by-step instructions on large cards — she knows their eyesight isn’t as good as young people’s.
Last year, Chen’s work was recognized by the local government. She received a “Community Service Star” award, but she said, “The real reward is seeing the elders smile when they can use the phone on their own. That’s why I keep doing this.”
1.How long has Chen Mei been helping the elderly learn to use smartphones?
A.2 years B.3 years C.4 years D.5 years
2.Why did many elderly people feel “left out” according to Paragraph 1?
A.They had no one to talk to.
B.They couldn’t use smartphones.
C.They didn’t have family members.
D.They couldn’t go out of their homes.
3.What does Chen Mei do to help the elderly remember the skills?
A.She gives them new smartphones.
B.She asks their children to join the class.
C.She writes instructions on large cards.
D.She records videos for them to watch.
4.The underlined word “recognized” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A.praised and rewarded
B.doubted and questioned
C.forgotten and ignored
D.refused and rejected
5.What can we learn from Chen Mei’s story?
A.Community work is boring.
B.Helping others brings happiness.
C.Elderly people don’t need smartphones.
D.Only young people can use smartphones.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.C 4.A 5.B

Passage 2
(2025 河北邢台)In 2021, my 68-year-old mother was diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默病). By January 2023, she’d lost her ability to complete everyday tasks. She was set on staying in her home and resisted the in-home care. I guessed it was because of what it represented: the acceptance of a disease that would slowly rob her of her memories and the ability to take care of herself.
We had to make the hard choice of finding her a nursing home for her safety and well-being. But we knew she wouldn’t be interested. So, we made up an excuse, telling her that it was an opportunity to spend the winter near my brother in sunny Florida while living at an apartment we had arranged for her.
My mum wasn’t the soft, affectionate mother I often longed for. She had never shown or talked about her feelings, but she was a great example of a hard-working, independent, entrepreneurial woman. My brother and I both have our own businesses, which is something she showed us was possible.
Since her diagnosis, watching her battle with accepting what was happening to her was heartbreaking, but I also felt closer to her when she began to express and share her feelings with me like a kid.
My brother arrived to meet us and we were shown to her apartment. A small kitchen, a living room, a bathroom, and two bedrooms — one for her, and one for me and my brother to stay in when we visited. She seemed happy during moving in. For the next 10 days, I lived with her there. We went to meals together, reviewed the activity schedule, and I dropped her off and picked her up like a child at school.
The day came when I had to fly home, and I cried. As I shifted from being her daughter to being more like her parent, I realized how hard being a mother can be.
1.Why might the author’s mother resist in-home care?
A.She preferred living alone.
B.She disliked the caregivers.
C.She feared losing independence.
D.She intended to move to Florida.
2.How did the author and her brother convince their mother to move to the nursing home?
A.They told her a white lie.
B.They threatened her to go.
C.They offered her a free apartment.
D.They agreed to keep her company.
3.What kind of person was the author’s mother before the diagnosis?
A.Talkative and determined. B.Reserved but responsible.
C.Energetic and gentle. D.Creative but cold.
4.How does the author feel after her role change?
A.Confused. B.Content.
C.Awkward. D.Appreciative.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.B 4.D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者母亲患阿尔茨海默病后,作者和兄弟为其找养老院并陪伴的经历及感受。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段中“She was set on staying in her home and resisted the in-home care. I guessed it was because of what it represented: the acceptance of a disease that would slowly rob her of her memories and the ability to take care of herself.(她执意要留在自己家中,拒绝居家护理服务。我猜想,这是因为居家护理对她而言意味着接受一种会慢慢剥夺她记忆和自理能力的疾病。)”可知,作者母亲拒绝居家护理是因为她害怕失去独立生活的能力。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中“So, we made up an excuse, telling her that it was an opportunity to spend the winter near my brother in sunny Florida while living at an apartment we had arranged for her.(所以,我们编了个借口,告诉她这是一个机会,可以在阳光明媚的佛罗里达州我哥哥附近过冬,同时住在我们为她安排的公寓里。)”可知,作者和她的兄弟对母亲说了一个善意的谎言,说服她搬到养老院。故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据第三段中“My mum wasn’t the soft, affectionate mother I often longed for. She had never shown or talked about her feelings, but she was a great example of a hard-working, independent, entrepreneurial woman.(我妈妈不是我经常渴望的那种温柔、深情的母亲。她从未表现或谈论过自己的感受,但她是一个勤劳、独立、有创业精神的女性的典范。)”可推知,作者的母亲在确诊前是一个内敛但有责任心的人。故选B。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As I shifted from being her daughter to being more like her parent, I realized how hard being a mother can be.(当我从她的女儿转变为更像她的父母时,我意识到做母亲有多难。)”可知,作者在角色转变后,感到母亲的艰辛,因此很感激母亲。故选D。
Passage 3
(2025 江苏扬州)When I was growing up, my mom often said that no matter what grades I got in school as long as I did my best, she’d be proud of me. Then she added, “But if you didn’t get an A, I’ll know you didn’t do your best.” She said it with a smile, but I took it seriously. I shouldn’t settle for anything less than perfect. My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.
Perfectionism is the desire to be 100% perfect. The goal is zero faults and no failures. In an increasingly competitive world, kids face growing pressure from parents to be perfect and severe criticism when they fall short. Every fault is a blow to their self-esteem (自尊). I’ve lived it myself.
When I won the fifth-grade quiz bowl on world explorers, I beat myself up afterward for missing one question. How could I forget that the sea route to India was discovered by da Gama, but not Magellan? When I made the finals of a Mortal Kombat tournament and won a lifetime pass to a local movie theater, I didn’t celebrate. Third place is the second loser. When I won the first prize in a math test, I was disappointed. Only a 98? Not good enough. There was always a voice in the back of my mind whispering that it wasn’t enough and that I could have done better.
It was during my college years that I started to question the value of this perfectionism. I met people who didn’t seem to be weighed down by the same expectations, who accepted their mistakes and saw them as opportunities for growth rather than failures. They taught me that it was okay to be imperfect, that it was human to make mistakes, and that sometimes, the most important lessons come from our failures.
1.What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A.The disadvantage of being a perfectionist.
B.Why the author became a perfectionist.
C.How the author got the good grades in school.
D.The feeling of being grateful to the author’s mother.
2.What made the author unsatisfied with what had been achieved?
A.Blame from parents. B.Eagerness to be perfect.
C.Desire to get first prize. D.Pressure of competitions.
3.What made the author change the attitude towards perfectionism?
A.Losing expectation to succeed.
B.Realizing the harm of being perfect.
C.Learning lessons from other people’s failure.
D.Encountering those accepting imperfection.
4.Which column of a magazine may the text be taken from?
A.Coming-of-Age Stories. B.Parenting Styles.
C.People of Achievement. D.Challenges Facing Youth.
【答案】1.B 2.B 3.D 4.A
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从小到大追求完美,到大学时期因遇到一些人而改变对完美主义态度的成长故事。
1.主旨大意题。根据第一段“When I was growing up, my mom often said that no matter what grades I got in school as long as I did my best, she’d be proud of me. Then she added, “But if you didn’t get an A, I’ll know you didn’t do your best.” She said it with a smile, but I took it seriously. I shouldn’t settle for anything less than perfect. My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.(在我成长的过程中,我妈妈经常说,不管我在学校取得了什么成绩,只要我做到了最好,她就会为我感到骄傲。然后她又说:“但如果你没有得到A,我就知道你没有尽力。”她说这话时面带微笑,但我却当真了:我不应该满足于任何不完美的东西。我最大的缺点是过于追求完美)”可知,第一段主要讲的是作者成为完美主义者的原因。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段“Perfectionism is the desire to be 100% perfect.

3.细节理解题。根据最后一段“I met people who didn’t seem to be weighed down by the same expectations, who accepted their mistakes and saw them as opportunities for growth rather than failures. They taught me that it was okay to be imperfect, that it was human to make mistakes, and that sometimes, the most important lessons come from our failures.(我遇到了一些人,他们似乎没有被同样的期望所拖累,他们接受自己的错误,把它们视为成长的机会,而不是失败。他们告诉我,不完美是可以接受的,犯错误是人之常情,有时候,最重要的教训来自于我们的失败)”可知,遇到那些接受不完美的人让作者改变了对完美主义的态度。故选D。
4.推理判断题。根据第一段“My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.(我最大的缺点是过于追求完美)”以及最后一段“It was during my college years that I started to question the value of this perfectionism.(在大学期间,我开始质疑这种完美主义的价值)”等内容可知,文章主要讲述了作者从小到大追求完美,到大学时期因遇到一些人而改变对完美主义态度的成长故事。可知,这篇文章可能取自杂志的“成长故事”专栏。故选A。
Passage 4
(2025 广东)The great elephant stands in the hot African sun. Slowly the beast lifts its head and its thick trunk delicately curls around the leaves of a nearby tree, pulling out the leaves and politely slipping them into its mouth.
The beast’s great grey skin is partly broken and aged from the African sun. Some mud drops on one side from its last trip to a nearby river. Its rough hair sticks out from all over its skin and two large, white tusks curve elegantly from either side of its mouth.
Somewhere a lion roars and something else gives a loud high shout. A vulture (秃鹫) drifts over far above this world, barely a black dot in the sky. The buzzing of the countless bush insects seems to collectively shift up in high tune, almost like the whole of the savanna (热带草原) was singing some song that only they knew.
I peer through the lens (镜头) at this scene. The zoom lens shows almost every detail of the elephant: the three small cuts in its left ear from playing as a baby around thorn trees, the scar down its front leg where a lion caught it unaware as a young adult, and weathering on its great, valuable tusks from decades of living in this unforgiving grassland on a dusty continent.
And then the elephant looks at me. It looks at me with those big, eyelashed eyes with a warmth coming outwards from a vast, hidden depth there. I can suddenly feel its soul, and feel the line of elephants that came before this one, trailing back to the very beginnings of this great savanna. We will never understand what wonders this ancient being and its kind have seen and whispered to each other across the ages on this old, sacred grassland.
It looks at me, and it looks through me and sees me. The elephant knows I am there. It always did. It is not running away, nor is it fighting. It accepts and forgives. It loves. But, mostly, it just feels sad. It feels sorry for me. I cannot do this anymore.
I take my eye off the sights and hand the gun back to my partner. “Let’s go home,” I said in a quiet voice, “let’s just go home.”
1.According to the first two paragraphs, which word can best describe the elephant?
A.Mysterious. B.Depressed. C.Aggressive. D.Graceful.
2.When the author sees through the lens, he is ________.
A.deeply moved and filled with sympathy B.overwhelmed by the elephant’s strength
C.annoyed at the presence of other animals D.shocked and scared by the elephant’s scars
3.What does the shift in focus from the elephant to the vulture and insects imply?
A.The elephant is about to be attacked. B.The author is losing interest in the elephant.
C.The elephant is part of a larger and living world. D.The author wants to show the savanna’s dangers.
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Nature calms our anger. B.Nature purifies our souls.
C.Nature heals our wounds. D.Nature enriches our imagination.
【答案】1.D 2.A 3.C 4.B

1.细节理解题。根据第一段“The great elephant stands in the hot African sun. Slowly the beast lifts its head and its thick trunk delicately curls around the leaves of a nearby tree, pulling out the leaves and politely slipping them into its mouth. (大象站在非洲烈日下。它慢慢地抬起头,粗壮的鼻子巧妙地卷起在附近一棵树的叶子上,把叶子扯下来,礼貌地塞进嘴里)”以及第二段“two large, white tusks curve elegantly from either side of its mouth (两根巨大的白色象牙从它嘴的两侧优雅地弯曲着)”可知,大象的动作和外形呈现出优雅的特点。故选D项。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段“The zoom lens shows almost every detail of the elephant: the three small cuts in its left ear from playing as a baby around thorn trees, the scar down its front leg where a lion caught it unaware as a young adult, and weathering on its great, valuable tusks from decades of living in this unforgiving grassland on a dusty continent. (变焦镜头几乎展示了这头大象的每一处细节:左耳上有三个小伤口,这是它小时候在荆棘树下玩耍时留下的,前腿上有一个伤疤,那是它年轻时被狮子突袭留下的疤痕,还有那又大又珍贵的象牙,因在这片无情的草原上生活了数十年而留下了风化痕迹)”以及第五段“I can suddenly feel its soul, and feel the line of elephants that came before this one, trailing back to the very beginnings of this great savanna. (我突然能感受到它的灵魂,感受到在这头大象之前的大象群,一直追溯到这片大草原的起源)”可知,作者透过镜头看到大象时,被其深深触动并充满同情。故选A项。
3.推理判断题。根据第三段“Somewhere a lion roars and something else gives a loud high shout. A vulture (秃鹫) drifts over far above this world, barely a black dot in the sky.

(某处传来狮子的吼叫,还有别的什么发出一声响亮的尖叫。一只秃鹫在这个世界的高空飘过,在天空中几乎只是一个黑点。无数丛林昆虫的嗡嗡声似乎集体调高了音调,几乎就像整个热带草原在唱一首只有它们能懂的歌)”可知,从大象聚焦到秃鹫和昆虫,展现了大象所处的广阔生态环境,说明大象是更大的鲜活世界的一部分。故选C项。
4.推理判断题。根据第五段“I can suddenly feel its soul (我突然能感受到它的灵魂)”以及最后一段“I take my eye off the sights and hand the gun back to my partner. “Let’s go home,” I said in a quiet voice, “let’s just go home.” (我把视线从瞄准具上移开,把枪交还给我的搭档。“我们回家吧,”我轻声说,“我们就回家吧。”)”可知,作者在观察大象的过程中,心灵受到触动,最终放弃捕猎,由此可推知,自然净化了我们的灵魂。故选B项。

Passage 1
(25·湖南长沙)My first guitar lesson ended in pain, confusion and defeat. But then I was completely 1 . At 10, I felt a deep connection to this mysterious instrument. Since then, guitars have been my life. Through aching fingers, guitars 2 my deep emotions. With practice, the pain 3 and I grew closer to the instrument. The calluses (老茧) on my fingertips became badges (勋章) of honor, filling me with pride. The feelings of playing became second nature, providing temporary excellence. I couldn’t remember how many times I had been 4 to another reality. Picking up a guitar always returns me to that innocent 10-year-old, leaving me calmer and 5 .

Passage 2
(25·江苏盐城)Afraid to have a start, I was walking slowly into my first school in America. I had 1 a long way from India in order to join parents. They had been here for three years, and hoped America would help my future. My father decided that I would go to school here, so I found a local high school in my new town.
With 2 on one hand and fear on the other, I arrived at the classroom. Everyone’s eyes were on me as I entered the classroom. Without paying attention to them, I went straight to the 3 and asked if it was the right class. With a 4 voice, he answered, “Yes.” His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a piece of 5 called “course requirements”, which I would never get in India. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I chose the 6 closest to the door instead of the corner where all of the boys were sitting. I didn’t 7 want to pick a seat. In India, the teacher 8 seats, so I never needed to worry about that. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the picture produced by the overhead projector (投影仪).
9 it was my first day, I was confused about which hallway (走廊) to use, but I 10 to get to my classes without asking anyone. I was very confused about when I would have 11 . It was noon when I went to my next class and the bell rang as I entered. I went through the normal process of asking the teacher if I was in the right class. Feeling 12 , she said, “That is the lunch bell.” I felt a little awkward. Without another word, I headed for the cafeteria (食堂).
At the end of the day, I was on my way to the bus stop. I realized that all the 13 was like the difficulty I had to 14 to reach my goal. I 15 my bus and sat down inside happily. I said to myself: Today isn’t so bad.

Passage 1
(2025 广东)Chen Mei, a 32-year-old community worker in Guangzhou, has been helping elderly residents learn to use smartphones for 4 years. Many old people in her community used to feel “left out” because they couldn’t order takeout, pay bills online, or video-call their grandchildren — all of which require smartphone skills.
To solve this problem, Chen started a “Smartphone Class” in 2020. Every Saturday morning, she meets with 15-20 elderly people in the community center. She teaches them simple skills first: how to unlock the phone, how to open WeChat, and how to send voice messages. Later, she moves to more useful skills, like ordering groceries on JD Daojia or checking medical appointment results on the hospital’s app.
Chen’s classes are popular. Mrs. Li, 78, said, “Before, I had to ask my son to pay my electricity bill every month. Now I can do it myself! I even video-call my granddaughter in Beijing every weekend.” To make it easier for the elderly to remember, Chen writes down step-by-step instructions on large cards — she knows their eyesight isn’t as good as young people’s.
Last year, Chen’s work was recognized by the local government. She received a “Community Service Star” award, but she said, “The real reward is seeing the elders smile when they can use the phone on their own. That’s why I keep doing this.”

Passage 2
(2025 河北邢台)In 2021, my 68-year-old mother was diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默病). By January 2023, she’d lost her ability to complete everyday tasks. She was set on staying in her home and resisted the in-home care. I guessed it was because of what it represented: the acceptance of a disease that would slowly rob her of her memories and the ability to take care of herself.
We had to make the hard choice of finding her a nursing home for her safety and well-being. But we knew she wouldn’t be interested. So, we made up an excuse, telling her that it was an opportunity to spend the winter near my brother in sunny Florida while living at an apartment we had arranged for her.
My mum wasn’t the soft, affectionate mother I often longed for. She had never shown or talked about her feelings, but she was a great example of a hard-working, independent, entrepreneurial woman. My brother and I both have our own businesses, which is something she showed us was possible.
Since her diagnosis, watching her battle with accepting what was happening to her was heartbreaking, but I also felt closer to her when she began to express and share her feelings with me like a kid.
My brother arrived to meet us and we were shown to her apartment. A small kitchen, a living room, a bathroom, and two bedrooms — one for her, and one for me and my brother to stay in when we visited. She seemed happy during moving in. For the next 10 days, I lived with her there. We went to meals together, reviewed the activity schedule, and I dropped her off and picked her up like a child at school.
The day came when I had to fly home, and I cried. As I shifted from being her daughter to being more like her parent, I realized how hard being a mother can be.

A.She preferred living alone.
B.She disliked the caregivers.
C.She feared losing independence.
D.She intended to move to Florida.
2.How did the author and her brother convince their mother to move to the nursing home?
A.They told her a white lie.
B.They threatened her to go.
C.They offered her a free apartment.
D.They agreed to keep her company.
3.What kind of person was the author’s mother before the diagnosis?
A.Talkative and determined. B.Reserved but responsible.
C.Energetic and gentle. D.Creative but cold.
4.How does the author feel after her role change?
A.Confused. B.Content.
C.Awkward. D.Appreciative.
Passage 3
(2025 江苏扬州)When I was growing up, my mom often said that no matter what grades I got in school as long as I did my best, she’d be proud of me. Then she added, “But if you didn’t get an A, I’ll know you didn’t do your best.” She said it with a smile, but I took it seriously. I shouldn’t settle for anything less than perfect. My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.
Perfectionism is the desire to be 100% perfect. The goal is zero faults and no failures. In an increasingly competitive world, kids face growing pressure from parents to be perfect and severe criticism when they fall short. Every fault is a blow to their self-esteem (自尊). I’ve lived it myself.
When I won the fifth-grade quiz bowl on world explorers, I beat myself up afterward for missing one question. How could I forget that the sea route to India was discovered by da Gama, but not Magellan? When I made the finals of a Mortal Kombat tournament and won a lifetime pass to a local movie theater, I didn’t celebrate. Third place is the second loser. When I won the first prize in a math test, I was disappointed. Only a 98? Not good enough. There was always a voice in the back of my mind whispering that it wasn’t enough and that I could have done better.
It was during my college years that I started to question the value of this perfectionism. I met people who didn’t seem to be weighed down by the same expectations, who accepted their mistakes and saw them as opportunities for growth rather than failures. They taught me that it was okay to be imperfect, that it was human to make mistakes, and that sometimes, the most important lessons come from our failures.
1.What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A.The disadvantage of being a perfectionist.
B.Why the author became a perfectionist.
C.How the author got the good grades in school.
D.The feeling of being grateful to the author’s mother.
2.What made the author unsatisfied with what had been achieved?
A.Blame from parents. B.Eagerness to be perfect.
C.Desire to get first prize. D.Pressure of competitions.
3.What made the author change the attitude towards perfectionism?
A.Losing expectation to succeed.
B.Realizing the harm of being perfect.
C.Learning lessons from other people’s failure.
D.Encountering those accepting imperfection.
4.Which column of a magazine may the text be taken from?
A.Coming-of-Age Stories. B.Parenting Styles.
C.People of Achievement. D.Challenges Facing Youth.
Passage 4
(2025 广东)The great elephant stands in the hot African sun. Slowly the beast lifts its head and its thick trunk delicately curls around the leaves of a nearby tree, pulling out the leaves and politely slipping them into its mouth.
The beast’s great grey skin is partly broken and aged from the African sun. Some mud drops on one side from its last trip to a nearby river. Its rough hair sticks out from all over its skin and two large, white tusks curve elegantly from either side of its mouth.
Somewhere a lion roars and something else gives a loud high shout. A vulture (秃鹫) drifts over far above this world, barely a black dot in the sky. The buzzing of the countless bush insects seems to collectively shift up in high tune, almost like the whole of the savanna (热带草原) was singing some song that only they knew.
I peer through the lens (镜头) at this scene. The zoom lens shows almost every detail of the elephant: the three small cuts in its left ear from playing as a baby around thorn trees, the scar down its front leg where a lion caught it unaware as a young adult, and weathering on its great, valuable tusks from decades of living in this unforgiving grassland on a dusty continent.
And then the elephant looks at me. It looks at me with those big, eyelashed eyes with a warmth coming outwards from a vast, hidden depth there. I can suddenly feel its soul, and feel the line of elephants that came before this one, trailing back to the very beginnings of this great savanna. We will never understand what wonders this ancient being and its kind have seen and whispered to each other across the ages on this old, sacred grassland.
It looks at me, and it looks through me and sees me. The elephant knows I am there. It always did. It is not running away, nor is it fighting. It accepts and forgives. It loves. But, mostly, it just feels sad. It feels sorry for me. I cannot do this anymore.
I take my eye off the sights and hand the gun back to my partner. “Let’s go home,” I said in a quiet voice, “let’s just go home.”
1.According to the first two paragraphs, which word can best describe the elephant?
A.Mysterious. B.Depressed. C.Aggressive. D.Graceful.
2.When the author sees through the lens, he is ________.
A.deeply moved and filled with sympathy B.overwhelmed by the elephant’s strength
C.annoyed at the presence of other animals D.shocked and scared by the elephant’s scars
3.What does the shift in focus from the elephant to the vulture and insects imply?
A.The elephant is about to be attacked. B.The author is losing interest in the elephant.
C.The elephant is part of a larger and living world. D.The author wants to show the savanna’s dangers.
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Nature calms our anger. B.Nature purifies our souls.
C.Nature heals our wounds. D.Nature enriches our imagination.
