专题03 阅读理解 （记叙文） 主题01 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 (24-25高一上·广东深圳龙华区·期末) As I was about to head back to my room, my mom called out, “Emma, you’ve got mail.” Excited, I hurried downstairs and saw a small envelope waiting for me on the table. It was from my pen pal, Sarah, who lives in San Francisco. We met online through a group for book lovers, and after hearing others talk about how fun it was to have a pen pal, we decided to try it ourselves. In her first letter to me, she wrote, “The idea of having a pen pal seems so romantic to me.While I appreciate the conveniences of the modern world, certain traditions carry a timeless beauty.” I couldn’t agree more. My love for handwritten notes wasn’t new. I’ve always enjoyed writing personal letters to friends. When I graduated from high school, I even wrote to each of my friends, reflecting on our memories and wishing them well as we went our separate ways. But my exchange with Sarah felt different. We were strangers getting to know each other through letters. Sarah told me that she loves baking and that her favorite thing to make is chocolate chip cookies. She also said she enjoys watching sunsets by the beach and that she thinks they’re the most peaceful moments of her day. From her letters, I learned a lot about San Francisco, too. In return, I shared stories about my life in Boston. I also told her about my favorite season, fall, and how the trees turn beautiful shades of red and orange. Writing to Sarah has become a cherished hobby. While texting or emailing is quick, there’s something magical about opening a handwritten letter. The thoughtful choice of words and the care behind each detail make it unique. I look forward to every envelope that arrives, knowing it carries a bit of Sarah’s world into mine. 1．What led Emma to begin writing letters to Sarah? A．Fondness of handwritten letters.

One year, two guys took the class and did pretty well on all the exams and mid terms. They each had an A．These two friends were so confident in going into the final that the weekend before finals week, despite the Chemistry final being on Monday, they decided to go to the University of Virginia to party with some friends. They had a great time there. However, with their hangovers (宿醉) and tiredness, they overslept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to Duke until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they found professor Bonk after the final and explained to him how they missed the final. They told him they went up to the University of Virginia for the weekend and had planned to come back in time to study, but they had a flat tire on the way back and didn’t have a spare. So they were late getting back to campus. Bonk thought this over and agreed that they could take the final the following day. The two guys, happily and relieved (宽慰的), studied that night and went in the next day at the time that Bonk had told them. He placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet. He told them to begin. They looked at the first problem which was something simple about solution (溶解). It was worth 5 points. “Cool,” they thought, “this is going to be an easy final.” They then turned the page. They were unprepared, however, for what they saw on it.

Passage 3 (24-25高一上·广东湛江·期末) The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during the Field Day in primary school. Small for my age, and more of a book-lover than a sports-lover, I had suffered that special humiliation of being picked last for various gym teams. The Field Day, which focused on individual (个体的) skills, however, was different. In the Softball Throw event, I got my first taste of sporting victory. Credit goes to the example of my first coach, my father. He lifted weights every morning at home. He bought us all baseball gloves and hats, and in the warm months, we spent hours playing catch. When fall came, our backyard football games began with passing practice. Once I got to seventh grade and went to middle school, our entire student body was assigned to either the Red or the White team. Throughout the year, we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points. I eventually became president of The Committee of Games, speeding up my competitive fever. I also played on the field hockey team and the basketball team. And at home, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply normal things we did. As I attended college, my roommate and I even took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that continued into my marriage, when we had no spare money to use to join a gym. So, though, it shocks some of our friends, that early foundation (基础) developed in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, considered necessary even on vacation. I still love reading and the arts, too. As far as I’m concerned, life is the richest with my feet in both worlds. 1．What does the underlined word “humiliation” mean in paragraph 1? A．Shame. B．Regret. C．Glory. D．Responsibility. 2．In the author’s view, what led to her victory in the Softball Throw event? A．Her confidence in her sports skills. B．The sports talent from her father. C．Her advanced sports gloves and hats. D．The training offered by her father. 3．What happened after the author stepped into adulthood? A．She continued her passion for sports. B．She preferred reading to working out. C．She regularly exercised on weekends. D．She joined Royal Canadian Air Force. 4．What is the author’s purpose of writing the article? A．To show her father’s guidance on sports. B．To express her love for sports and fitness. C．To stress the benefits of physical exercise. D．To share her childhood memories about sports. 主题02 人与社会——人物介绍 Passage 1 (24-25高一上·广东深圳外国语学校·期末) Snowboarding genius Su Yiming made a name for himself by winning China’s first Olympic gold in the men’s snowboard big air final at the Beijing Winter Olympics.

Passage 3 (24-25高一上·广东深圳·期末) Growing up on a remote Michigan farm, Henry Ford knew little of all this — but he soon showed his interest more in the industrial future than in the agricultural past. His father, William, hoped his eldest son would join him on the farm, and finally take it over. But Henry hated farm work and did everything he could to avoid it. It was not that he was lazy but that the repeated daily life of the farm upset him. If given a mechanical (机械的) job to do, he would be set to work eagerly. When he was twelve, he became almost uncontrollably interested in clocks and watches. Soon he was repairing clocks and watches for friends. In 1876, his wife died in childbirth. Henry suffered a blow and decided to get away from the farm as soon as he could. Three years later, he worked as a mechanic in Detroit. One day in 1877, when he first saw a steam-driven locomotive (蒸汽机车), Henry went to the locomotive driver and asked him plenty of questions about the engine’s performance. From then on, Henry became crazy about steam engines. Later, with the help of an old co-worker, Henry got an engineer position at the Edison Detroit Electricity Company. Although Henry quickly became chief engineer at the Detroit power factory, his interest in fuel engines took up his life. He spent most of his spare time trying to build an engine according to his own design. Henry went through the hard way to build an engine by hand from the beginning. It was two years before he succeeded in building a working car. It was unattractive-looking on bicycle wheels and driven by a rubber belt that connected the engine.

Hart was heavily favored to win his next round against an ungifted boxer, Antuofermo. It was said that the only thing that Antuofermo could do was “he bled well". However, here was an important thing. He had good qualities that you couldn't see. During the fight, Hart controlled Antuofermo, knocking him down and giving him a good beating. Antuofermo absorbed the punishment that was dealt to him by his naturally superior opponent, and he did it so well that Hart became discouraged. In the fifth round, Hart began to tire, not physically but mentally. Taking advantage of the situation, Antuofermo attacked and knocked Hart down, thus ending the fight. When the fighters went back to their temporary restrooms, only a thin curtain was between them. Hart's room was quiet, but on the other side he could hear Antuofermo's coach talking about who would take the fighter to the hospital. Finally he heard Antuofermo saying, "Every time he hit me with that left hook （左勾拳）to the body, I thought I was going to quit. After the second round, I thought if he hit me there again, I'd quit. I thought the same thing after the fourth round. But he stopped hitting me there." At that moment, Hart began to weep. He was crying because for the first time he under- stood that Antuofermo had felt the same way he had and even worse. And the only thing that distinguished the guy who was talking from the guy who was crying was perseverance （毅力）. The coward （懦夫）and the hero had the same emotions. They're both humans. The important question to ask yourself here is this： How does each man respond to the tough situation that they are experiencing?

The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was to reach for my phone. Sliding into this habit was easy, but it was difficult to quit it. Then the day came when I finally realized I had to make a change. Head down, eyes on my smartphone, I stepped into the road and a car shot past, nearly knocking me off my feet! At that very moment, I made up my mind to spend a whole week without my smartphone. The first day was the hardest. I was used to checking the news and my friends’ social media updates every few minutes. I kept reaching for my pocket, for my smartphone that was not there. I felt empty and uneasy, as if I had missed something of value. I felt disconnected from everyone and everything. It was scary. But then somehow I began to feel free. I finally picked up the classic novel I had always wanted to read and was soon lost in the beautiful language. I went out for a run and felt more alive than I had in days. Best of all, I began to appreciate the beauty in life with my own eyes, instead of through my smartphone camera. My offline relationships benefited as well. I went for a long walk with an old friend. Our wide-ranging conversation went so much deeper than brief texts ever could. With eyes no longer fixed on our phones, we had a chance to really enjoy staying with each other. I also made sure to spend more time with my parents. We went to the opera, played badminton, and visited museums. We had never felt closer to each other. By the end of the week, I almost did not want to turn my phone back on. Those seven days have given me a great appreciation for life beyond the screen. Life beyond smartphones is richer and more beautiful, and I am going to take advantage of it. Posted at 6:44 p. m., 10th May by Alan 1．What did the writer think of his smartphone use?

While I hope we have 20 or 30 good years ahead, it’s time to think about some choices we regret. I can’t hold you responsible for decisions made before we turned 18. Our brains weren’t fully developed, and being the youngest child in the family made it hard to find independence. We went against our parents. We got close to friends, but then again pushed them back. Yes, there were secrets and lies, but that’s part of growing up. However, I think you should apologize for how you started our career (事业). You had always dreamed of being a reporter, but settled for editing work only because it was the easiest thing to do in your field. Over time, you felt you didn’t learn much, even though the pay was good and working hours were pretty flexible. It wasn’t until we changed to marketing that we found a more satisfying path and met the love of our life. We bought a lovely home in the city centre. But starting a family brought new challenges.The responsibilities of parenting took over our job goals as we got caught up in our kids’ activities. And when the kids went to college, we faced an empty home and had to rediscover who we were besides parents. It felt like a new stage of youth, where we were re-learning about life without focusing on our kids. We found part-time jobs and meaningful volunteer work, trying to stay connected while finding our own space. Now, as we approach senior years, life feels peaceful. We’ve had ups and downs, from losing our mom to watching our kids grow. So, younger me, let’s pardon ourselves for past mistakes. We can’t move forward until we make peace with our past. Hopefully, our best days are still ahead. The Senior Me 1．What’s the purpose of “me” writing this letter? A．To reflect on the past. B．To plan for the future. C．To catch up with a friend. D．To ask for some advice. 2．What makes “my” growth so challenging before “I” turned 18? A．Failing to take responsibilities. B．Having no elder brothers or sisters. C．Dealing with relationships with others. D．Wanting to stay dependent on parents. 3．Why was “I” disappointed with the first job? A．It didn’t pay much. B．It didn’t match my major. C．It required long working hours. D．It offered me little job growth. 4．How did “I” adjust“my” life after the kids went to college? A．By emptying our home. B．By finding a new purpose. C．By keeping a distance from others. D．By learning to accept growing old. 主题04 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 (24-25高一上·广东茂名高州·期末) Dorothy Jean Tillman Ⅱ of Chicago, Illinois took her first college class at age 10. In December, 2023, she became the youngest person to earn a doctorate in integrated behavioural health (综合行为健康) at Arizona State University. When she completed her study programme, she was 17. Her friends and family, though, call Tillman by another name, “Dorothy Jeanius”. A “genius” is a very smart person.

My arms are wrapped around The Elephant, an olive tree which is said to be more than 3,000 years old - one of the oldest in Puglia, Italy. I couldn’t be happier. Kirsten puts her hand on my shoulder and I turn, wiping away tears, and laugh. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen The Elephant up close. My sister, my mom and I came to Masseria Brancati, the small family farm that’s home to this tree and hundreds of other olive trees, seven years ago. Kirsten and I have returned now, at my request, to learn how the trees have been , which in the past few years have been faced with a disease, X fastidiosa. I became aware of the poor conditions of Puglia’s olive trees in the summer of 2018; the news came at a hard time for our family. After we returned from our first visit, we were surprised to learn Mom had a stress fracture (应力性骨折) in her foot. As a result, she was finally wheel-chaired. In the fall of 2017, she was diagnosed (确诊) with a rare disease called progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Like X. fastidiosa, it’s a killer that has no known cure (治愈方法). Now, the good news is that olive trees have hope. Certain varieties are lucky dogs, proving healthy even when exposed to X. fastidiosa. Scientists are grafting (嫁接) branches from these trees to the remaining uninfected (未受感染的) ones. The hope is that they can mix and prevent the further spread of death. My family has hope, too. The U. S. National Institutes of Health recently provided a major fund to conduct research on PSP. Before Kirsten and I leave Masseria Brancati, we return to The Elephant to say goodbye. I reach up and gently touch The Elephant one last time. I silently beg. All we can do is hope - if not for forever living, then at least for future generations who will be able to continue the traditions established in the past. 1．Why did the author visit The Elephant seven years later? A．To help her mother find the cure. B．To test a treatment on it. C．To recall her old memories. D．To check its health conditions. 2．What happened to Mom after the author’s first visit to Puglia? A．She was diagnosed with X. fastidiosa. B．She gave up traveling abroad. C．She fell from her wheelchair, D．She suffered from a killer disease. 3．Why does the author call certain trees “lucky dogs” in paragraph 4? A．They could still stay well-off despite exposure to X. fastidiosa. B．They kept alive healthily with the grafted branches. C．They’ve been saved thanks to scientists’ efforts. D．They’ve prevented further spread of tree death. 4．What message does the author most want to give us? A．We should keep hopeful when life is down. B．We should protect wildlife in the right ways. C．We should carry on ancient traditions. D．We should stay with family when there is time. Passage 3 (24-25高一上·广东潮州·期末) Five thousand square meters of old damaged cars, motorcycles and boats fill this junkyard. For a casual onlooker, this might be a very sad sight. But for Andy. it’s a real treasure. “I’ve been a junk hoarder (囤积者) for my whole life and I like fixing up what shouldn’t be thrown away. Around 200 old cars end up in this junkyard every week. Some of them are sold for parts, others get repaired, and still others are beyond repair.” His father Bobby started the business some 50 years ago and still spends every morning there. The father and son have very different approaches to their work. They got a Dean cab that was getting thrown away and that was the father’s project, which Andy did not want him to do. “He did basically the opposite of everything I told him and I think he did it just to make me mad. He dumped a ton of money into this car, but in the end it wouldn’t run.” Andy said jokingly. The unusual family business attracted the attention of a TV programmer. That’s how the show Janka Empire came to be known on a network of the Discovery Channel. This show, five years of shooting, five seasons and 60 episodes (集), is popular. “There are hundreds of junkyards throughout the United States. I think what’s interesting is that it is a family business. My father and I started the business and we joke very well back and forth and I think that’s what people like. The cars that end up at the junkyard come out with endless surprises. See, this was a junk car and we restored it with a blown motor. Yet I don’t get a chance to ride around it too often. Because despite its shining appearance, the noise of the engine is truly deafening and I worry my neighbors will not put up with it.” 1．What does Andy seem to like about his junkyard?

Passage 5 (24-25高一上·广东江门·期末) Not educated as a child, Jiang Shumei never imagined, even in her wildest dreams, that she would publish a book one day. Now, at the age of 87, the granny is a proud author of six books. Jiang learned her first Chinese character at the age of 60. When her husband died after a car accident, her daughter suggested that she learn reading to take her mind off loneliness and sorrow. Unlike other beginners, Jiang “drew” every single character like drawing pictures. Whenever she saw unknown characters, she would ask for help. As Jiang learned enough characters, she started to read literary works. Attracted by the stories, she wished to share her own stories and began to put pen to paper at 75. But it was not a walk in the park. Sometimes completing one sentence would take a day. She usually started writing at 3 a. m. or 4 a. m., and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied. Her daughter published her stories on social media platforms before they drew attention from her writer friends. Therefore, Jiang made a bold (大胆的) decision: to publish them. The first book, titled “Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty,” was published later, which proved to be a success. Some critics praised it as the “live history of the nation plagued (困扰、折磨) by war, death, and hunger.” With the book, Jiang earned lots of fans, to whom she said, “Don’t feel sorry for me. The hardship as mentioned in the book is now the past. Without all the hardship, I could never have finished this book.” So far the old lady has published six books, with 600,000 plus characters in total. In her spare time, she is also learning painting and calligraphy. Her dream now is to have her own art exhibition at the age of 90. “If I could live as old as 130, would you still say it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asked, jokingly. 1．What made Jiang begin learning to read at the age of 60? A．To publish her books in the future. B．To ease her loneliness and sadness. C．To draw some Chinese characters.

It was from my pen pal, Sarah, who lives in San Francisco. We met online through a group for book lovers, and after hearing others talk about how fun it was to have a pen pal, we decided to try it ourselves. In her first letter to me, she wrote, “The idea of having a pen pal seems so romantic to me.While I appreciate the conveniences of the modern world, certain traditions carry a timeless beauty.” I couldn’t agree more. My love for handwritten notes wasn’t new. I’ve always enjoyed writing personal letters to friends. When I graduated from high school, I even wrote to each of my friends, reflecting on our memories and wishing them well as we went our separate ways. But my exchange with Sarah felt different. We were strangers getting to know each other through letters. Sarah told me that she loves baking and that her favorite thing to make is chocolate chip cookies. She also said she enjoys watching sunsets by the beach and that she thinks they’re the most peaceful moments of her day. From her letters, I learned a lot about San Francisco, too. In return, I shared stories about my life in Boston. I also told her about my favorite season, fall, and how the trees turn beautiful shades of red and orange. Writing to Sarah has become a cherished hobby. While texting or emailing is quick, there’s something magical about opening a handwritten letter. The thoughtful choice of words and the care behind each detail make it unique. I look forward to every envelope that arrives, knowing it carries a bit of Sarah’s world into mine. 1．What led Emma to begin writing letters to Sarah? A．Fondness of handwritten letters.

Rather than taking the final then, they found professor Bonk after the final and explained to him how they missed the final. They told him they went up to the University of Virginia for the weekend and had planned to come back in time to study, but they had a flat tire on the way back and didn’t have a spare. So they were late getting back to campus. Bonk thought this over and agreed that they could take the final the following day. The two guys, happily and relieved (宽慰的), studied that night and went in the next day at the time that Bonk had told them. He placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet. He told them to begin. They looked at the first problem which was something simple about solution (溶解). It was worth 5 points. “Cool,” they thought, “this is going to be an easy final.” They then turned the page. They were unprepared, however, for what they saw on it.

Small for my age, and more of a book-lover than a sports-lover, I had suffered that special humiliation of being picked last for various gym teams. The Field Day, which focused on individual (个体的) skills, however, was different. In the Softball Throw event, I got my first taste of sporting victory. Credit goes to the example of my first coach, my father. He lifted weights every morning at home. He bought us all baseball gloves and hats, and in the warm months, we spent hours playing catch. When fall came, our backyard football games began with passing practice. Once I got to seventh grade and went to middle school, our entire student body was assigned to either the Red or the White team. Throughout the year, we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points. I eventually became president of The Committee of Games, speeding up my competitive fever. I also played on the field hockey team and the basketball team. And at home, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply normal things we did. As I attended college, my roommate and I even took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that continued into my marriage, when we had no spare money to use to join a gym. So, though, it shocks some of our friends, that early foundation (基础) developed in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, considered necessary even on vacation. I still love reading and the arts, too. As far as I’m concerned, life is the richest with my feet in both worlds. 1．What does the underlined word “humiliation” mean in paragraph 1? A．Shame. B．Regret. C．Glory. D．Responsibility. 2．In the author’s view, what led to her victory in the Softball Throw event? A．Her confidence in her sports skills. B．The sports talent from her father. C．Her advanced sports gloves and hats. D．The training offered by her father. 3．What happened after the author stepped into adulthood? A．She continued her passion for sports. B．She preferred reading to working out. C．She regularly exercised on weekends. D．She joined Royal Canadian Air Force. 4．What is the author’s purpose of writing the article? A．To show her father’s guidance on sports. B．To express her love for sports and fitness. C．To stress the benefits of physical exercise. D．To share her childhood memories about sports. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从童年到成年对体育从疏远到热爱的过程。 1．词句猜测题。由文章第一段中“Small for my age, and more of a book-lover than a sports-lover, I had suffered that special humiliation of being picked last for various gym teams. (就我的年龄而言，我个子矮小，而且我更喜欢读书，而不是体育运动。我曾遭受过一种特别的humiliation，在各种体育运动队中，我都是最后一个被选中的)”可知，作者提到她曾经因为体型较小而经常成为体育团队中最后被挑选的一员，这让她感到羞愧、羞耻。humiliation在这里的意思是“羞愧，羞耻”。A. Shame羞愧，羞耻；B. Regret遗憾；C. Glory荣耀；D. Responsibility责任。故选A。 2．细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Credit goes to the example of my first coach, my father. He lifted weights every morning at home. He bought us all baseball gloves and hats, and in the warm months, we spent hours playing catch. When fall came, our backyard football games began with passing practice. (这要归功于我的第一个教练，我的父亲。他每天早上在家举重。他给我们每个人都买了棒球手套和帽子，在温暖的月份里，我们花几个小时玩接球游戏。秋天来临时，我们的后院足球比赛开始于传球练习)”可知，在作者看来，她父亲提供的训练导致了她在垒球投掷项目中的胜利。故选D。 3．推理判断题。由文章第二段中“As I attended college, my roommate and I even took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) exercises every day, a practice that continued into my marriage, when we had no spare money to use to join a gym. (当我上大学时，我和室友甚至养成了每天完成加拿大皇家空军（RCAF）训练的习惯，当我们没有多余的钱去参加健身房时，这种习惯一直持续到我结婚)”和最后一段中“So, though, it shocks some of our friends, that early foundation (基础) developed in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, considered necessary even on vacation. (因此，尽管这让我们的一些朋友感到震惊，但这种早期的基础在成年后发展成为运动和健身的重点，甚至在度假时也被认为是必要的)”可知，成年后作者继续保持着对运动的热情。故选A。 4．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据文章第一段中“The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during the Field Day in primary school. (我第一次意识到我对体育比赛的热爱是在小学的体育比赛日期间)”和最后一段中“So, though, it shocks some of our friends, that early foundation (基础) developed in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, considered necessary even on vacation. (因此，尽管这让我们的一些朋友感到震惊，但这种早期的基础在成年后发展成为运动和健身的重点，甚至在度假时也被认为是必要的)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者从小热爱体育，并把这种对体育的热爱持续到了成年，作者写这篇文章的目的是表达她对运动和健身的热爱。故选B。 主题02 人与社会——人物介绍 Passage 1 (24-25高一上·广东深圳外国语学校·期末) Snowboarding genius Su Yiming made a name for himself by winning China’s first Olympic gold in the men’s snowboard big air final at the Beijing Winter Olympics. By cleanly stomping back-to-back 1800 tricks, the teenager has landed the biggest prize so far in his young career. The notable achievement realized his childhood dream to reach the peak of the sport, which he began to learn at the age of 4. Now with two shinning medals hung around his neck, the 17-year-old described his superb Olympic debut (首次亮相) as an unbelievable experience that has made all his sacrifices worthwhile. “This feels so surreal that I’ve finally accomplished what I’ve dreamed of since I was little,” said Su.

His father, William, hoped his eldest son would join him on the farm, and finally take it over. But Henry hated farm work and did everything he could to avoid it. It was not that he was lazy but that the repeated daily life of the farm upset him. If given a mechanical (机械的) job to do, he would be set to work eagerly. When he was twelve, he became almost uncontrollably interested in clocks and watches. Soon he was repairing clocks and watches for friends. In 1876, his wife died in childbirth. Henry suffered a blow and decided to get away from the farm as soon as he could. Three years later, he worked as a mechanic in Detroit. One day in 1877, when he first saw a steam-driven locomotive (蒸汽机车), Henry went to the locomotive driver and asked him plenty of questions about the engine’s performance. From then on, Henry became crazy about steam engines. Later, with the help of an old co-worker, Henry got an engineer position at the Edison Detroit Electricity Company. Although Henry quickly became chief engineer at the Detroit power factory, his interest in fuel engines took up his life. He spent most of his spare time trying to build an engine according to his own design. Henry went through the hard way to build an engine by hand from the beginning. It was two years before he succeeded in building a working car. It was unattractive-looking on bicycle wheels and driven by a rubber belt that connected the engine. Henry called it the “Quadricycle (四轮自行车)”. 1．What appealed to Henry Ford most when he was very young? A．Sports. B．Farm work. C．Machines. D．Art. 2．How did Ford’s wife lose her life?

Only when I am involved in writing can I feel complete.(对我来说，写作不是谋生的工具，而是我必要的生活模式。只有当我参与写作时，我才会感到完整)”可知，王忆将写作视为重要的生活方式是因为写作帮助她更好地与世界交流，也让她感觉到这样才是完整的。故选D项。 3．细节理解题。根据文中第五段第二句“What I value most is the sense of value and dignity from the efforts of the disabled themselves, as well as from social recognition, acceptance and equal treatment.(我最看重的是残疾人自身付出的价值感和尊严感，以及社会的认可、接纳和平等对待。)”可知，王忆认为对残疾人来说最重要的是通过自身努力而获得的价值感和自尊。故选B项。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“Wang Yi, who can’t walk or even communicate normally, has written eight books with one movable finger.(王忆不能正常走路，甚至不能正常交流，但她用一个可以活动的手指写了八本书。)”，第三段中的“She practiced performing daily activities repeatedly.(她反复练习着做一些日常活动。)”以及“With the encouragement of her teacher, she became more determined to pursue her dream of writing.(在老师的鼓励下，她更加坚定了追求写作梦想的决心。)”等信息可知，王忆是一位有决心的、为实现梦想而努力奋斗的残疾女孩。故选A项。 Passage 3 (24-25高一上·广东深圳（外研版）·期末) More than 30 years ago, there was a well-known boxer named Eugene Hart. Hart was heavily favored to win his next round against an ungifted boxer, Antuofermo. It was said that the only thing that Antuofermo could do was “he bled well". However, here was an important thing. He had good qualities that you couldn't see. During the fight, Hart controlled Antuofermo, knocking him down and giving him a good beating. Antuofermo absorbed the punishment that was dealt to him by his naturally superior opponent, and he did it so well that Hart became discouraged. In the fifth round, Hart began to tire, not physically but mentally. Taking advantage of the situation, Antuofermo attacked and knocked Hart down, thus ending the fight. When the fighters went back to their temporary restrooms, only a thin curtain was between them. Hart's room was quiet, but on the other side he could hear Antuofermo's coach talking about who would take the fighter to the hospital. Finally he heard Antuofermo saying, "Every time he hit me with that left hook （左勾拳）to the body, I thought I was going to quit. After the second round, I thought if he hit me there again, I'd quit. I thought the same thing after the fourth round. But he stopped hitting me there." At that moment, Hart began to weep. He was crying because for the first time he under- stood that Antuofermo had felt the same way he had and even worse. And the only thing that distinguished the guy who was talking from the guy who was crying was perseverance （毅力）. The coward （懦夫）and the hero had the same emotions. They're both humans. The important question to ask yourself here is this： How does each man respond to the tough situation that they are experiencing? Maybe you are in a tough position right now or, if not, one might be coming. How will you react? Like a hero or a coward? 1．What can we learn from paragraph 1? A．Hart was an ordinary boxer. B．Antuofermo was hardly defeated. C．Hart was believed to win the game. D．Antuofermo was gifted in boxing. 2．How did Antuofermo win the fight? A．He trained hard before the fight. B．Hart became discouraged by his coach. C．He was confident about his boxing talent and power. D．He dealt with the punishment properly and grasped the chance. 3．Why did Hart cry after the fight? A．He realized he was just mentally defeated. B．He was hurt and sent to a hospital. C．He lost the game easily. D．He was considered to be a coward. 4．What are Antuofermo's qualities? A．Hard-work and honesty. B．Humor and intelligence. C．Perseverance and determination. D．Enthusiasm and responsibility. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 4．C 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述一名叫Antuofermo的拳手凭借自己的果断和坚持不懈打败了比自己强大的对手。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第一段Hart was heavily favored to win his next round against an ungifted boxer, Antuofermo（人们普遍看好Hart在下一轮比赛中击败没有天赋的拳击手Antuofermo）可知，Hart被认为会赢下比赛。故选C项。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第二段During the fight, Hart controlled Antuofermo, knocking him down and giving him a good beating. Antuofermo absorbed the punishment that was dealt to him by his naturally superior opponent, and he did it so well that Hart became discouraged. In the fifth round, Hart began to tire, not physically but mentally. Taking advantage of the situation, Antuofermo attacked and knocked Hart down, thus ending the fight（在比赛中，哈特控制住了Antuofermo，把他打倒在地，狠狠地揍了他一顿。Antuofermo接受了天生比他强的对手对他的惩罚，他做得很好，使得哈特感到灰心丧气。在第五轮，哈特开始感到疲倦，不是身体上，而是精神上。Antuofermo乘机进攻，将哈特击倒在地，战斗就此结束）可知，他接受了哈特的惩罚并且在哈特表现出疲惫的情况下抓住机会将其击倒在地。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。根据文章第四段At that moment, Hart began to weep. He was crying because for the first time he under- stood that Antuofermo had felt the same way he had and even worse. And the only thing that distinguished the guy who was talking from the guy who was crying was perseverance. The coward and the hero had the same emotions. They're both humans（就在那一刻，哈特开始哭泣。他哭了，因为他第一次明白了，Antuofermo也有过和他同样的感受，甚至更糟。唯一能区别说话的人和哭泣的人的是毅力。懦夫和英雄有着同样的情感。他们都是人类）可知，Hart哭泣是因为没有足够的意志力才被打败。打败他的是意志力。故选A项。 4．推理判断题。根据第二段Taking advantage of the situation, Antuofermo attacked and knocked Hart down, thus ending the fight（Antuofermo乘机进攻，将哈特击倒在地，战斗就此结束）可知，他是一个果断的人。再根据文章倒数第二段Antuofermo的描述Every time he hit me with that left hook to the body, I thought I was going to quit. After the second round, I thought if he hit me there again, I'd quit. I thought the same thing after the fourth round. But he stopped hitting me there（“每次他用左勾拳打我的身体时，我都以为我要放弃了。第二轮之后，我想如果他再打我，我就放弃了。第四轮过后我也这么想。但他不再打我了）可知，每次Antuofermo都想放弃，但每次他都没有放弃坚持了下来。说明Antuofermo是一个有决心有毅力的人。A. Hard-work and honesty 努力工作和诚实；B. Humor and intelligence 幽默和聪明；C. Perseverance and determination坚持不懈和果断；D. Enthusiasm and responsibility 热情和有责任心。故选C项。 主题03 人与自我——身心健康 Passage 1 (24-25高一上·广东广州越秀区·调研) My eyes were glued to the little screen whenever I walked down the street, had dinner with friends or lay in bed at night. The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was to reach for my phone. Sliding into this habit was easy, but it was difficult to quit it. Then the day came when I finally realized I had to make a change. Head down, eyes on my smartphone, I stepped into the road and a car shot past, nearly knocking me off my feet! At that very moment, I made up my mind to spend a whole week without my smartphone. The first day was the hardest. I was used to checking the news and my friends’ social media updates every few minutes. I kept reaching for my pocket, for my smartphone that was not there. I felt empty and uneasy, as if I had missed something of value. I felt disconnected from everyone and everything. It was scary. But then somehow I began to feel free. I finally picked up the classic novel I had always wanted to read and was soon lost in the beautiful language. I went out for a run and felt more alive than I had in days. Best of all, I began to appreciate the beauty in life with my own eyes, instead of through my smartphone camera. My offline relationships benefited as well. I went for a long walk with an old friend. Our wide-ranging conversation went so much deeper than brief texts ever could. With eyes no longer fixed on our phones, we had a chance to really enjoy staying with each other. I also made sure to spend more time with my parents. We went to the opera, played badminton, and visited museums. We had never felt closer to each other. By the end of the week, I almost did not want to turn my phone back on. Those seven days have given me a great appreciation for life beyond the screen. Life beyond smartphones is richer and more beautiful, and I am going to take advantage of it. Posted at 6:44 p. m., 10th May by Alan 1．What did the writer think of his smartphone use? A．It made him a phone addict. B．It contributed to a sound sleep. C．It prevented him making friends. D．It made his life more convenient. 2．How did the author feel on the first day without his smartphone? A．Bored and sleepy. B．Lost and anxious. C．Calm and relaxed. D．Happy and excited. 3．What mainly contributed to the writer’s change in the end? A．He won support from his family and friends. B．He narrowly escaped being knocked down by a car. C．He developed a great appreciation for offline activities. D．He had had enough of his former life with smartphones. 4．Where is the passage most probably taken from? A．A science fiction. B．A personal blog. C．A research report. D．A newspaper column. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者沉迷手机，后因险些被车撞决定停用一周手机，期间体验到线下生活的美好，最后意识到无手机的生活更丰富。 1．推理判断题。根据第一段中“My eyes were glued to the little screen whenever I walked down the street, had dinner with friends or lay in bed at night. The first thing I did when I woke up in the morning was to reach for my phone. Sliding into this habit was easy, but it was difficult to quit it.(无论我是走在街上、和朋友一起吃晚餐还是晚上躺在床上，我的眼睛都紧紧盯着那个小屏幕。我早上醒来做的第一件事就是伸手去拿手机。养成这个习惯很容易，但要戒掉却很难)”可知，作者随时随地都在看手机，且很难戒掉这个习惯，由此可推断出，作者认为自己对智能手机使用上瘾了。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“I felt empty and uneasy, as if I had missed something of value. I felt disconnected from everyone and everything.(我感到空虚和不安，好像错过了一些有价值的东西。我觉得自己与所有人和事都脱节了)”可知，作者在没有手机的第一天感到失落和焦虑。故选B项。 3．推理判断题。根据第四段中“I finally picked up the classic novel I had always wanted to read and was soon lost in the beautiful language. I went out for a run and felt more alive than I had in days. Best of all, I began to appreciate the beauty in life with my own eyes, instead of through my smartphone camera.(我终于拿起了那本我一直想读的经典小说，很快就沉浸在优美的文字中。我出去跑步，感觉比几天来都更有活力。最棒的是，我开始用自己的眼睛去欣赏生活中的美，而不是通过手机摄像头)”以及第五段 “My offline relationships benefited as well. I went for a long walk with an old friend. Our wide ranging conversation went so much deeper than brief texts ever could. With eyes no longer fixed on our phones, we had a chance to really enjoy staying with each other. I also made sure to spend more time with my parents. We went to the opera, played badminton, and visited museums. We had never felt closer to each other.(我的线下人际关系也得到了改善。我和一位老朋友去散步。我们广泛的交谈比简短的文字交流深入得多。我们的眼睛不再盯着手机，有机会真正享受彼此的陪伴。我还确保花更多时间和父母在一起。我们去看歌剧、打羽毛球、参观博物馆。我们从未感觉彼此如此亲近)”可知，作者在停用手机期间，阅读经典小说、出去跑步、和朋友散步、陪父母参加各种活动，体验到了线下活动的乐趣，和朋友、家人的关系也更亲密了。由此可推断出，作者最后做出改变主要是因为他对线下活动产生了极大的欣赏和喜爱。故选C项。 4．推理判断题。根据文章最后落款“Posted at 6:44 p. m., 10 th May by Alan(5月10日下午6:44发布，作者艾伦)”可知，文章有发布时间和作者署名，具有个人分享的特征，所以最有可能来自个人博客。故选B项。 Passage 2 (24-25高一上·广东大湾区·期末) Krista Brown never exercised regularly, though in her adult life, she started doing yoga exercise for the mind-body connection. But that all changed when her son, Tom, died of an accident. She felt like she had lost the world overnight. A few years later, Krista spotted one old photo with her families, standing on the top of Mount Cloundry. “That was the first real smile I had after my son died,” says Krista. Before long, Krista received an email from an organization that offers support to people who lost loved ones. They were hosting an adventurous tour to Mount Shasta. Krista signed up, knowing it’s time to let go of the past. During that climb, besides photographing the beauty of sunrise and stars, Krista found something that brought the biggest joy to her. “I really love the planning of it, the experience of working with a team and the focus on survival,” she says. Besides, she shared her story with other members and made life-long friends with them. Since then, Krista has topped 19 mountains with no plans of stopping. “The most immediate effect of mountaineering (登山运动) is that I actually have a life now, which let me be in the moment. If I miss my step, I’ll slide. So I have to make sure I’m present, neither in the past being sad, nor in the future, wishing things were different.” Krista says mountaineering has helped her become a better mother too. “Even mothering my other kids, I was in a haze, sending them to the wrong classes or mixing up salt and sugar... The climbing got me out of that mess and got my life back on track.” Her future plans? Summiting Mount Hood and Half Dome in Yosemite National Park this summer. 1．What made Krista start mountaineering? A．Disinterest to take yoga exercise. B．Willingness to climb with families. C．Eagerness to join in an organization. D．Desire to ease the pain of losing her son. 2．What did Krista enjoy most about mountaineering? A．The chance to take photos of nature. B．The peace of surviving difficult weathers. C．The friendship with other teammates. D．The experience of planning and teamwork. 3．What direct benefit has Krista gained from mountaineering? A．A positive attitude. B．A sound body. C．Long-term friendship. D．Good parental methods. 4．Which of the following is the closest in meaning to “haze” in the last paragraph? A．Delight. B．Confusion. C．Satisfaction. D．Sadness. 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Krista通过登山走出失去儿子的伤痛，并重获生活激情。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“But that all changed when her son, Tom, died of an accident. She felt like she had lost the world overnight.(但当她的儿子汤姆死于一场事故后，一切都改变了。她觉得自己一夜之间失去了整个世界。)”以及第二段中“Before long, Krista received an email from an organization that offers support to people who lost loved ones. They were hosting an adventurous tour to Mount Shasta. Krista signed up, knowing it’s time to let go of the past.(不久，Krista收到了一封来自一个为失去亲人的人提供支持的组织的电子邮件。他们正在组织一次沙斯塔山的冒险之旅。Krista报名了，她知道是时候放下过去了)”可知，Krista开始登山，是因为她想放下过去，减轻失去儿子的痛苦。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段““I really love the planning of it, the experience of working with a team and the focus on survival,” she says. (她说：‘我真的很喜欢它的规划、与团队合作的体验以及对生存的关注。’)”可知，关于登山，Krista最喜欢的是规划和团队合作的经验。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据第四段“The most immediate effect of mountaineering (登山运动) is that I actually have a life now, which let me be in the moment.(登山最直接的影响是，我现在有了自己的生活，这让我活在当下)”可知，Krista从登山运动中得到的最直接的影响是，她活在当下，获得了积极的生活态度。故选A。 4．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Even mothering my other kids, I was in a haze, sending them to the wrong classes or mixing up salt and sugar... The climbing got me out of that mess and got my life back on track.(即使是照顾我的其他孩子，我也处于haze中，把他们送错了班，或者把盐和糖混在一起……攀岩让我摆脱了困境，让我的生活重回正轨)”可知，Krista在照顾孩子时会弄错一些事情，由此推测，照顾其他孩子时，Krista也处于迷糊、恍惚的状态，划线单词haze表示“迷茫，糊涂”，与confusion意义相近。故选B。 Passage 3 (24-25高一上·广东深圳龙岗区·期末) Dear Younger Me, It’s hard to believe we’re nearing our senior years. While I hope we have 20 or 30 good years ahead, it’s time to think about some choices we regret. I can’t hold you responsible for decisions made before we turned 18. Our brains weren’t fully developed, and being the youngest child in the family made it hard to find independence. We went against our parents. We got close to friends, but then again pushed them back. Yes, there were secrets and lies, but that’s part of growing up. However, I think you should apologize for how you started our career (事业). You had always dreamed of being a reporter, but settled for editing work only because it was the easiest thing to do in your field. Over time, you felt you didn’t learn much, even though the pay was good and working hours were pretty flexible. It wasn’t until we changed to marketing that we found a more satisfying path and met the love of our life. We bought a lovely home in the city centre. But starting a family brought new challenges.The responsibilities of parenting took over our job goals as we got caught up in our kids’ activities. And when the kids went to college, we faced an empty home and had to rediscover who we were besides parents. It felt like a new stage of youth, where we were re-learning about life without focusing on our kids. We found part-time jobs and meaningful volunteer work, trying to stay connected while finding our own space. Now, as we approach senior years, life feels peaceful. We’ve had ups and downs, from losing our mom to watching our kids grow. So, younger me, let’s pardon ourselves for past mistakes. We can’t move forward until we make peace with our past. Hopefully, our best days are still ahead. The Senior Me 1．What’s the purpose of “me” writing this letter? A．To reflect on the past. B．To plan for the future. C．To catch up with a friend. D．To ask for some advice. 2．What makes “my” growth so challenging before “I” turned 18? A．Failing to take responsibilities. B．Having no elder brothers or sisters. C．Dealing with relationships with others. D．Wanting to stay dependent on parents. 3．Why was “I” disappointed with the first job? A．It didn’t pay much. B．It didn’t match my major. C．It required long working hours. D．It offered me little job growth. 4．How did “I” adjust“my” life after the kids went to college? A．By emptying our home. B．By finding a new purpose. C．By keeping a distance from others. D．By learning to accept growing old. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文是篇书信形式的记叙文。文章是步入老年的作者写给年轻时的自己的一封信，作者回忆了自己过去的经历，反思自己所做的一些错误选择，决定与过去的错误和解，对未来充满了希望。 1．推理判断题。根据第一段“While I hope we have 20 or 30 good years ahead, it’s time to think about some choices we regret.(虽然我希望我们还有20年或30年的美好时光，但现在是时候考虑一些我们后悔的选择了)”和文章内容可知，作者写这封信是为了回忆过去，反思自己所做的一些错误的选择。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“We went against our parents. We got close to friends, but then again pushed them back. Yes, there were secrets and lies, but that’s part of growing up.(我们和父母对着干。我们和朋友走得很近，但后来又疏远了他们。是的，有秘密和谎言，但这是成长的一部分。)”可知，在18岁之前，作者还不会很好地处理与他人的关系，这也让他的成长过程富有挑战性。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段“Over time, you felt you didn’t learn much, even though the pay was good and working hours were pretty flexible.(随着时间的推移，你觉得你没有学到很多东西，即使工资很高，工作时间也很灵活。)”可知，作者对第一份工作失望，是因为他从中学不到东西，在工作中得不到成长。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据第四段“We found part-time jobs and meaningful volunteer work, trying to stay connected while finding our own space.(我们找到了兼职工作和有意义的志愿者工作，试图在寻找自己空间的同时保持社会联系。)”可知，作者在孩子上大学之后，通过找到新的工作，找到了新的目标，从而调整自己的生活。故选B。 主题04 人与自我——生活与学习 Passage 1 (24-25高一上·广东茂名高州·期末) Dorothy Jean Tillman Ⅱ of Chicago, Illinois took her first college class at age 10.

My arms are wrapped around The Elephant, an olive tree which is said to be more than 3,000 years old - one of the oldest in Puglia, Italy. I couldn’t be happier. Kirsten puts her hand on my shoulder and I turn, wiping away tears, and laugh. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen The Elephant up close. My sister, my mom and I came to Masseria Brancati, the small family farm that’s home to this tree and hundreds of other olive trees, seven years ago. Kirsten and I have returned now, at my request, to learn how the trees have been , which in the past few years have been faced with a disease, X fastidiosa. I became aware of the poor conditions of Puglia’s olive trees in the summer of 2018; the news came at a hard time for our family. After we returned from our first visit, we were surprised to learn Mom had a stress fracture (应力性骨折) in her foot. As a result, she was finally wheel-chaired. In the fall of 2017, she was diagnosed (确诊) with a rare disease called progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Like X. fastidiosa, it’s a killer that has no known cure (治愈方法). Now, the good news is that olive trees have hope. Certain varieties are lucky dogs, proving healthy even when exposed to X. fastidiosa. Scientists are grafting (嫁接) branches from these trees to the remaining uninfected (未受感染的) ones. The hope is that they can mix and prevent the further spread of death. My family has hope, too. The U. S. National Institutes of Health recently provided a major fund to conduct research on PSP. Before Kirsten and I leave Masseria Brancati, we return to The Elephant to say goodbye. I reach up and gently touch The Elephant one last time. I silently beg. All we can do is hope - if not for forever living, then at least for future generations who will be able to continue the traditions established in the past. 1．Why did the author visit The Elephant seven years later? A．To help her mother find the cure. B．To test a treatment on it. C．To recall her old memories. D．To check its health conditions. 2．What happened to Mom after the author’s first visit to Puglia? A．She was diagnosed with X. fastidiosa. B．She gave up traveling abroad. C．She fell from her wheelchair, D．She suffered from a killer disease. 3．Why does the author call certain trees “lucky dogs” in paragraph 4? A．They could still stay well-off despite exposure to X. fastidiosa. B．They kept alive healthily with the grafted branches. C．They’ve been saved thanks to scientists’ efforts. D．They’ve prevented further spread of tree death. 4．What message does the author most want to give us? A．We should keep hopeful when life is down. B．We should protect wildlife in the right ways. C．We should carry on ancient traditions. D．We should stay with family when there is time. 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．A 4．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和姐姐回到七年前曾经去过的橄榄园，查看橄榄树的健康状况，并由此联想到母亲所患的罕见疾病，但无论是橄榄树还是母亲所患的疾病，都有了新的希望。 1．推理判断题。根据第二段“Kirsten and I have returned now, at my request, to learn how the trees have been, which in the past few years have been faced with a disease, X fastidiosa. (在我的要求下，Kirsten和我现在又回来了，我们想了解一下这些树的状况，因为它们在过去几年里一直面临着一种疾病，即X fastidiosa。)”可知，作者七年后再次去看那棵“大象”橄榄树是为了检查它的健康状况。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“In the fall of 2017, she was diagnosed with a rare disease called progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Like X. fastidiosa, it’s a killer that has no known cure.

(某些品种是幸运儿，即使暴露在X. fastidiosa下也能保持健康。)”可知，作者称某些树为“幸运儿”是因为尽管暴露在X fastidiosa下，它们仍然能保持健康。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“All we can do is hope - if not for forever living, then at least for future generations who will be able to continue the traditions established in the past. (我们所能做的就是希望——如果不是为了永远的生活，那么至少是为了未来的几代人，他们将能够继续过去建立的传统。)”可知，作者最想给我们传达的信息是当生活陷入低谷时，我们应该保持希望。故选A。 Passage 3 (24-25高一上·广东潮州·期末) Five thousand square meters of old damaged cars, motorcycles and boats fill this junkyard. For a casual onlooker, this might be a very sad sight. But for Andy. it’s a real treasure. “I’ve been a junk hoarder (囤积者) for my whole life and I like fixing up what shouldn’t be thrown away. Around 200 old cars end up in this junkyard every week. Some of them are sold for parts, others get repaired, and still others are beyond repair.” His father Bobby started the business some 50 years ago and still spends every morning there. The father and son have very different approaches to their work. They got a Dean cab that was getting thrown away and that was the father’s project, which Andy did not want him to do. “He did basically the opposite of everything I told him and I think he did it just to make me mad. He dumped a ton of money into this car, but in the end it wouldn’t run.” Andy said jokingly. The unusual family business attracted the attention of a TV programmer. That’s how the show Janka Empire came to be known on a network of the Discovery Channel. This show, five years of shooting, five seasons and 60 episodes (集), is popular. “There are hundreds of junkyards throughout the United States. I think what’s interesting is that it is a family business. My father and I started the business and we joke very well back and forth and I think that’s what people like. The cars that end up at the junkyard come out with endless surprises. See, this was a junk car and we restored it with a blown motor. Yet I don’t get a chance to ride around it too often. Because despite its shining appearance, the noise of the engine is truly deafening and I worry my neighbors will not put up with it.” 1．What does Andy seem to like about his junkyard? A．He is proud of its achievements. B．He is addicted to collecting cars. C．He intends to take over the business. D．He enjoys creating value out of the waste. 2．What do we know from paragragh 2? A．The father and son often end up fighting. B．The father is ready to follow his son’s advice. C．The father and son often disagree with each other. D．The son is impatient and fed up with his father. 3．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in the last paragraph? A．The noise of the engine. B．The family business. C．The shining appearance. D．The show Janka Empire. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了一对父子经营一家废车场的故事。这家废车场的家庭生意吸引了一位电视制片人的注意，并因此诞生了一档在探索频道播出的节目《Janka帝国》。节目记录了废车场中的故事，受到了观众的喜爱。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“For a casual onlooker, this might be a very sad sight. But for Andy. it’s a real treasure. I’ve been a junk hoarder (囤积者) for my whole life and I like fixing up what shouldn’t be thrown away.(对于一个偶然的旁观者来说，这可能是一个非常悲伤的景象。但对安迪来说。这是一个真正的宝藏。我一辈子都是垃圾囤积者，我喜欢修理那些本不该被扔掉的东西。)” 以及最后段“The cars that end up at the junkyard come out with endless surprises. See, this was a junk car and we restored it with a blown motor. (最终被扔进垃圾场的汽车带来了无尽的惊喜。看，这是一辆废车，我们修复了一个坏掉的马达。)”可知，从安迪的话中可以判断出安迪喜欢从垃圾场的废物中创造出有价值的东西，这是安迪细化垃圾场的原因。故选D项。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The father and son have very different approaches to their work. They got a Dean cab that was getting thrown away and that was the father’s project, which Andy did not want him to do. “He did basically the opposite of everything I told him and I think he did it just to make me mad. He dumped a ton of money into this car, but in the end it wouldn’t run.” Andy said jokingly. (这对父子的工作方法截然不同。他们得到了一辆被扔掉的迪安出租车，那是他父亲的项目，安迪不希望他这样做。“他基本上和我说的完全相反，我想他这样做只是为了让我生气。他往这辆车里倒了好多钱，可是车子最后还是跑不动了。”安迪开玩笑地说。)”可知，父子两人各有自己不同的想法，意见是有分歧的，即父子俩经常意见不合。故选C项。 3．词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段中的“Yet I don’t get a chance to ride around it too often. Because despite its shining appearance, the noise of the engine is truly deafening and I worry my neighbors will not put up with it.(然而，我不太有机会开着它到处跑。因为尽管它外表闪亮，但发动机的噪音真的震耳欲聋，我担心我的邻居会受不了它。)”可知，尽管它造型优美，但是发动机的轰鸣声真得是震耳欲聋。安迪担心邻居无法忍受这个噪音。所以此处“it”指代的是前文中的“the noise of the engine(发动机的噪音)”。故选A项。 Passage 4 (24-25高一上·广东惠州·期末) At the age of 52, Elaine Plant never expected to become a competitive cyclist. Cycling was not a part of her busy life, which was focused on raising three children and running a family business. But in 2014, everything changed when her husband decided to join a charity (慈善) bike ride. Elaine decided to join him and took out an old, rusty mountain bike from the shed. That first ride was 15 miles, and it was very hard. Elaine pushed her bike up many hills, but she started to feel curious about cycling. Determined to improve, Elaine soon got a new road bike from her husband. On her first ride with it, she struggled with the brakes (刹车) and nearly missed a junction (路口) , but she was undeterred. Her confidence grew as she practiced, and she joined a local cycling club, the Bicester Millennium. There, she met other cyclists who taught her how to ride up hills, use the gears, and ride safely in a group. Elaine’s love for cycling grew stronger, and she started competing in events. She even bought a special bike to try time trials. Joining the club was a life-changing experience for Elaine. She became close friends with a group called the “Bicester Belles.” They supported each other on and off the bike. The group even tried a cyclocross race, a bike race on rough ground. Elaine was nervous, but she conquered her fears and finished the race with a smile. Now, Elaine encourages other women to try cycling. She says, “Challenge yourself! Enjoy  being on your bike and connect with others. Cycling changed my life and helped me find myself.” Her story shows that a small step can lead to great changes, bringing confidence, friendship, and  joy. 1．When did Elaine decide to go cycling? A．When she found her old mountain bike. B．When her friends in a club encouraged her. C．When her husband prepared for a cycling activity.

Elaine decided to join him and took out an old, rusty mountain bike from the shed. (但在2014年，当她的丈夫决定参加慈善自行车骑行时，一切都改变了。Elaine决定加入他，从车棚里拿出一辆生锈的旧山地车。)”可知，Elaine决定去骑自行车是在她丈夫准备参加一次慈善自行车骑行活动时。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据第二段“On her first ride with it, she struggled with the brakes (刹车) and nearly missed a junction (路口) , (第一次开车时，她刹车很吃力，差点错过一个路口，)”可知，Elaine在第一次骑新自行车时遇到了刹车问题，差点错过路口，因此前半句讲述的是Elaine骑行遇到的困难，后半句“but”一词转折可以猜测出她并没有因此停下或放弃。因此，“undeterred”在这里的意思是“没停下”或“没放弃”。D选项“Not stopped. (没有停下来。)”与划线词为同义。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段“She became close friends with a group called the “Bicester Belles.” They supported each other on and off the bike. (她与一个名为“Bicester Belles”的团体成为了亲密的朋友。他们上下自行车时互相搀扶着。)”可知，“Bicester Belles”是一个自行车俱乐部中的小组，成员们不仅在骑行时互相支持，在日常生活中也互相帮助。故选C。 4．推理判断题。通读全文，从本文Elaine的故事中，我们可以看到她从一个对自行车运动不熟悉的人，通过不断的挑战和努力，最终成为了一位热爱并投身于竞技自行车运动的人。这一过程中，她不仅提升了自己的技能，还结识了新朋友，并鼓励他们一起尝试自行车运动。因此，从她的故事中我们可以学到人生哲理是：面对挑战可以带来意想不到的收获。B选项“Facing challenges can lead to unexpected benefits. (面对挑战可以带来意想不到的好处。)”符合题意。故选B。 Passage 5 (24-25高一上·广东江门·期末) Not educated as a child, Jiang Shumei never imagined, even in her wildest dreams, that she would publish a book one day. Now, at the age of 87, the granny is a proud author of six books. Jiang learned her first Chinese character at the age of 60. When her husband died after a car accident, her daughter suggested that she learn reading to take her mind off loneliness and sorrow. Unlike other beginners, Jiang “drew” every single character like drawing pictures. Whenever she saw unknown characters, she would ask for help. As Jiang learned enough characters, she started to read literary works. Attracted by the stories, she wished to share her own stories and began to put pen to paper at 75. But it was not a walk in the park. Sometimes completing one sentence would take a day. She usually started writing at 3 a. m. or 4 a. m., and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied. Her daughter published her stories on social media platforms before they drew attention from her writer friends. Therefore, Jiang made a bold (大胆的) decision: to publish them. The first book, titled “Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty,” was published later, which proved to be a success. Some critics praised it as the “live history of the nation plagued (困扰、折磨) by war, death, and hunger.” With the book, Jiang earned lots of fans, to whom she said, “Don’t feel sorry for me. The hardship as mentioned in the book is now the past. Without all the hardship, I could never have finished this book.” So far the old lady has published six books, with 600,000 plus characters in total. In her spare time, she is also learning painting and calligraphy. Her dream now is to have her own art exhibition at the age of 90. “If I could live as old as 130, would you still say it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asked, jokingly. 1．What made Jiang begin learning to read at the age of 60?
