We must get ready,” the Queen Ant answers. The Grasshopper says, “Winter is far away. There is lots of food everywhere. Stop working. Come to sing and dance with me.” The Queen Ant says nothing and just walks away. When winter comes, the Grasshopper looks around for food in the cold.

In the 1870s London, wealthy (富有的) gentleman Phileas Fogg lived a quiet and well-ordered life. His daily routines (常规) were planned to the second; one of those routines was spending time at a private club. One day, Fogg and the other club members were discussing the size of the world. According to Fogg, modern inventions, such as the railway, had made the world a much smaller place. He believed that a person could travel around the whole world in only 80 days. Fogg made a bet (打赌) when the fellow members laughed at his idea. He bet that he could return to the club in 80 days after having journeyed around the world. If Fogg lost the bet, he would lose half of his money. Fogg set off on his journey with his new servant named Passepartout. However, unknown to them, the two were being followed by Detective Fix of Scotland Yard. He believed Fogg was a thief who had stolen money from a bank. After leaving Egypt and arriving in India, the two found a woman in danger. They saved her and took her along on their journey-her name was Aouda. The three travellers made their way through China, Japan and America, facing many difficulties along the way. Some of them were created by Fix, who didn’t give up his pursuit (追捕) of Fogg. Once the group made it to New York, they sailed to Ireland and then, finally, England. There Fix finally arrested (逮捕) Fogg—only for it to turn out that the real thief had been caught. But this waste of time cost Fogg greatly. If it had not been for the arrest, Fogg would have made it back to his club in time. Although Fogg lost the bet and his wealth, Aouda asked to be his wife. Fogg happily agreed. And in another happy turn of events, Passepartout realized that, because of the time difference, the group arrived back a day early!

Do you want to eat more healthily? Try Food Trainer! It’s an app from the UK. It helps people eat less unhealthy food by playing a game. In the free game, healthy food always comes in green circles (圆圈) and unhealthy food always comes in red circles. If a user clicks (点击) on a thing in the green circle, he or she will get a point. But clicking on a thing in the red circle will make the user lose a point. Does this easy game work well? The makers of the app make a study. They work with some scientists from Finland. Together they ask more than 1,200 volunteers (志愿者) to play the game once a day. After a month, the volunteers find changes in their diet. Most of them say they ate unhealthy food three to four times a week in the past. But now, they reduce this to once a week. Why does the app work so well? It’s because it uses brain training techniques (大脑训练技术). The game makes users’ brains stop when they see junk food. This helps users say no to unhealthy food in their daily lives. 1．Who may be most interested in the app Food Trainer? A．People who want to train their brains.

The local people put wormwood (艾草) and other herbal medicines (草药) into small bags to make sachets (香囊), and then gave them to relatives and friends to express their wishes for happiness and good luck. The followings are about the traditional sachets. At every Dragon Boat Festival, people in Mouding County will wear sachets. The sachets used to be shaped like lotus flowers (莲花). Today, sachets have been developed into different shapes, like tiger heads, monkeys and so on. When making sachets, people first cut the cloth into different shapes. That makes them into bags with flowers and animals on these bags. Then they fill bags with wormwood and other herbal medicines. Finally, they hang bands (带) on the top of the bags and fix red, blue and purple silks at the bottom. When people wear the sachets, they will find some fantastic smells. In Mouding, people may follow certain rules when wearing sachets during the Dragon Boat Festival. In order to prevent diseases and keep healthy, the old usually wear plant-shaped sachets, such as lotus flowers and apples. These sachets usually stand for happiness and health.

The first World Humanoid Robot Games (世界人形机器人运动会) take place from August 14 to 17 in Beijing. There are 280 teams from 16 countries and areas. They take part in 26 events. These games test how well robots can “feel”, “think” and move. One exciting part is the 5-on-5 football games.What can humanoid robots do? Humanoid robots are already doing many everyday jobs, like saying hello to people in restaurants. In one game, robots have to sort medicines (整理药品). One robot, called Galbot, wins first place.

By the end of 2025,100 pharmacies across China will use this kind of robot.Is it easy to make humanoid robots? No, it isn’t. Standing up and running are easy for us, but very hard for robots.

Also, their batteries (电池) don’t work for a long time, and sometimes they get too hot.Why do people make robots look like humans? We can make robots in different shapes. But most things around us, like doors and stairs (楼梯), are made to our size and shape. If the robot looks like us, it can use these things as we do.

People love playing it in parks, at home, or even on the street. A Chinese chess set has two main parts: a board and 32 pieces. The board is like a big square with many small lines, and it looks like a small battlefield. There are 16 pieces for each player. The pieces have different names, such as General (将), Soldier (兵), Horse and Chariot (车). Each piece moves in a special way. For example, the General can’t leave its small area, the Horse moves like the letter “L”, just like in Western chess. The goal (目标) of the game is to catch the other player’s General. If a player can’t protect their General, they lose. Playing Chinese chess is not just fun. It also helps people think carefully and make good plans. Many parents let their kids play it because they think it’s a good way to exercise their brains (大脑). Today, Chinese chess is still popular. It’s not only a game but also a part of Chinese culture that we should keep passing down. 1．How many pieces does one player have in Chinese chess? A．10. B．16. C．32.

Buildings mostly, right? But at the University (大学) of Newcastle in Australia, things are a little different. Of course, there are buildings in it, but students can also see wildlife.   The University of Newcastle is in a natural place. A lot of green trees and animals are in the school. The school is also home to many kinds of birds, frogs and reptiles (爬行动物).   Of all these animals, students see opossums (负鼠) most often. The small animals sleep in the day, and come out to do activities at night. They always stay in the open air. They only go into classrooms sometimes. But a young opossum often goes to a classroom. It enjoys having classes there and students take many pictures of it.   When wild animals show up in the school, no one is afraid. Students and teachers think the animals are friends. And the animals never hurt people. Workers of the university also work hard to keep the wild animals safe in the school. For the natural world, animals are an important part.   So next time you visit Australia, you can go to the University of Newcastle to meet some nice animals! 1．What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?

We all need money in order to make a living in the world. Usually our job’s income (收入) is enough for our basic needs. But will it cover emergencies (紧急情况) and those expensive wants? Likely not. And your main job may not be as safe as you would like. Some consider it possible for robots to take over about 40 percent of all jobs in 2026. Enter the side hustle. A good one is surely helpful in dealing with your money; moreover, there are other benefits (好处). ▲ Your main job may pay the bills, but maybe it doesn’t match your passion (热情). Start a side hustle that does. Let’s say you’re a dog lover. You could make money by walking dogs or making dog toys. Or maybe you enjoy photography. Begin a side business taking people’s photos. Or set up an online store selling cards and notebooks with your photos. Doing something that you’re passionate about is an excellent reason to have a side hustle. ▲ If you’re interested in growing your wealth, you shouldn’t put all your eggs in one basket. Having a side hustle allows you to think of different ways of increasing your income. Since you don’t depend on just one job, you may feel more confident about spending money on an expensive international trip. Or you can invest (投资) more of your money because you have an extra income. ▲ The beauty of a side hustle is that it isn’t a must. You choose to do it. But, like most things, you must put in the effort (努力) to get the benefits. The flexible (灵活的) nature of a side hustle is attractive to many people. You have the freedom to decide how much time you want to spend doing it. 1．According to the article, what does “side hustle” mean? A．A type of hobby that earns money as the main income. B．A second or part-time job besides your main job. C．An activity done mostly during free time for fun. D．A business that possibly pays in times of emergency. 2．Which three of the following subtitles can be put in the blanks in the article? a. You get out of your comfort zone. b.

While the rainforests may be called “the lungs of the planet”, scientists say it’s actually the ocean that provides 50－80% of the oxygen (氧气) we breathe. It also helps control Earth’s climate by moving heat from the equator (赤道) toward the poles (地极) to cool things down. The ocean itself is very important in the fight against climate change too. It takes in 50 times more carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) than our atmosphere (大气层). But it’s not just the ocean itself—many plants and animals in the ocean hold carbon too. Perhaps one of the most wonderful ones is the seagrass. Across the world, there are more than 70 kinds of seagrass. It grows in the underwater areas of 159 countries on six continents, covering 300,000 square kilometers. Now, that may be an area the size of Italy, but it’s hardly 0.2% of the seafloor. And this is where the seagrass comes into its own because it takes in 10% of the ocean’s carbon each year, 35 times faster than rainforests. Seagrass builds its leaves and roots using carbon and holds on to it, even after death. However, such an excellent way to help with climate change is itself under threat (威胁) from climate change, as temperature rise, storms, pollution, the long-term development of coastlines, and over-fishing have all played their roles in its decline (减少). According to the U.N. Environment Programme (UNEP), a seagrass area the size of a football field is destroyed every 30 minutes. Around the world, it is declining at a rate of about 7% a year. Unless we do something, experts say that some seagrasses will disappear for ever by 2050. Dealing with this problem will take an international effort. Luckily, some efforts have already started, in different places around the world. 1．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 1 mean? A．The oxygen B．The planet. C．The rainforest. D．The ocean 2．How can the seagrass help with climate change? A．It takes in carbon dioxide and holds carbon until it dies. B．It takes in 50 times more carbon dioxide than our atmosphere C．It takes in 10% of the ocean’s carbon and holds carbon fast. D．It grows in many underwater places and covers a large area. 3．What is the purpose (目的) of the article? A．To explain why the area of seagrass is becoming smaller every year. B．To draw readers’ attention to the pollution in the sea and make a change. C．To introduce different excellent ways to help with climate change. D．To tell readers the importance of seagrass and the problem it is facing. 4．What will probably be written next? A．What some countries have done to stop the decline of seagrass. B．Introduce the countries where seagrass is disappearing very fast. C．Describe the results caused by the decline of the seagrass. D．What scientists and experts think of the decline of the seagrass. ①“Do you know Macao (澳门) was never my real name. I have been away for too long, mother…” ②Song of Seven Sons — Macao, was written by Wen Yiduo in 1925, is still in the hearts of Macao’s children today. December 20, 2024 is the 25th anniversary (周年) of Macao’s return to the motherland. Thanks to “one country, two systems”, Macao has a much closer relationship with her motherland. ③Zhang Dan, aged 18, is studying at a college in Macao. “Travelling to the Chinese mainland, especially Zhuhai, has become easier, just like a part of the everyday life for some people.” Luo Xin, a twenty-year-old student, studies at Shenzhen University. She said, “A lot of people in Macao often go to Zhuhai to buy fresh and cheap vegetables and young people enjoy playing mishitaotuo there.” ④More people in Macao are willing to travel to the mainland, and the cities like Chongqing, Changsha and Hangzhou are popular places for young people. Guangdong is also a good choice for many people because the language and food are similar. ⑤“Young people in Macao are highly interested in what’s happening on the mainland,” said Luo Xin, “Like the young people on the mainland, they have learned many mainland Internet buzzwords (热词). I know about the most popular ones such as ‘juejuezi’ and they make us understand more about people and life on the mainland.” ⑥More than half of the people in Macao use shopping apps from the mainland. Luo Xin said that it’s because they can find almost everything they need at good prices on the apps. It usually takes about three to seven days for local people to get the product. ⑦“The connection (联系) between Macao and the motherland is getting stronger and stronger,” said Zhang Dan. 1．When did Macao return to the motherland? A．On December 20, 2024. B．On December 20, 1997. C．On December 20, 1999. D．On December 20, 1925. 2．Why do many people choose to travel to Guangdong? A．Because Guangdong and Macao have similar culture in food and language. B．Because travelling to Guangdong becomes a part of the weekend life in Macao. C．Because people can buy fresh and cheap vegetables and play mishitaotuo. D．Because Guangdong is not far from Macao and the travelling is also very easy. 3．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A．Shopping apps from the mainland. B．Young people from the mainland. C．Mishitaotuo games from the mainland. D．Internet buzzwords from the mainland. 4．According to the whole passage, how does the writer show his idea? A．By telling a good story. B．By introducing a great song. C．By giving some examples. D．By showing some numbers. Most people have a favorite color, but how people feel about colors depends on their culture. This can be very important to people in business that sell products (产品) all over the world. They might choose a color because they think it is exciting or nice, but in another country that same color could be used to give a sad meaning. Look at these examples: If you ask someone in Britain what the right color is for a bride (新娘) to wear, the answer will be white. In China and other Eastern countries, brides often wear red because the color red means good luck and happiness. Red is an unusual color fbr a British bride to wear. In Britain, red is used as a sign of danger. Road signs and warning things are often in red. In Eastern cultures, the color red does not mean you have to be careful. In Egypt, yellow is the color for death (死亡).In Britain and other Western cultures, death and funerals are usually linked to the color black, but in many Eastern countries white is the color people think of when it comes to death and funerals. Many people like the color orange because it is bright and exciting. Some advertisers (广告商) will not use orange in their advertisements because people may think the products are cheap and not very good. In a word, colors have different meanings in different cultures. We should learn to choose the right color in some special situation. 1．The colour red in Eastern countries means. A．comfortable life B．good luck C．a new start D．a good hobby 2．Why does the writer give so many examples in the passage? A．To choose a favorite color for readers. B．To introduce different colors in the world. C．To help advertisers decide the right colors in their advertisements. D．To tell readers different cultures have different meanings to the same color. 3．Which of the following is the structure  (结构) of the passage? (①=Paragraph l, ...) A． B． C． D． 4．What would be the best title for the passage? A．Colors in different jobs. B．The history of colors. C．Colors between China and Britain. D．Colors around the world. April Fool’s Day is a celebration that takes place in different countries around the world. It is on April 1st every year and is a day when many people play tricks (把戏) and jokes on each other. One April Fool’s Day, a reporter in England said that there would be no more spaghetti because the farmers in Italy had stopped growing it. Many people ran to supermarkets to buy as much spaghetti as they could. By the time people knew that the story was a trick, all of the spaghetti across the country had been sold out. In another trick a TV show in England reported there was special water. They said this water would help people lose weight (减肥). By the end of the day, more than 10,000 people had called the TV station to find out how to get this water. Many April Fool’s jokes may end up being not very funny. A famous TV star once invited his girlfriend onto his show on April Fool’s Day. He asked her to marry (嫁) him. The lady was happy. However, when she said yes, he said, “April Fool!” ▲ . The TV star lost his girlfriend and his show was stopped. One of the world’s most famous tricks, however, happened in October, not in April. In that month in 1938, actor Welles said on his radio program that aliens (外星人) from Mars had landed on the earth. He also said they were moving across the USA．Welles made it sound so real that hundreds of people believed the story, and people across the whole country felt afraid. By the time the police announced that the story was a trick, thousands of people had left their homes. 1．How does the writer tell stories about the April Fool’s Day? A．By asking questions. B．By giving examples. C．By drawing pictures. D．By giving advice. 2．According to the passage, why did people want to get the special water? A．Because people wanted to play the trick. B．Because people wanted to become thinner. C．Because the TV show asked people to buy the water. D．Because people wanted to use the water to make spaghetti. 3．Which sentence is the most suitable to go to ▲ ? A．That little joke didn’t matter. B．That little joke made him famous. C．That little joke made everyone laugh. D．That little joke didn’t have a happy ending. 4．What can you infer (推断) from the passage? A．All the tricks and jokes can make people happy. B．April Fool’s Day has a history of hundreds of years. C．On April 1st, people can make any joke or play any trick. D．On April 1st, people should be more careful with tricks. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 期末复习之阅读理解20篇 （期末考试单元话题） 本资料共20篇专题训练，5篇应用文+5篇记叙文+10篇说明文从上到下按照难度分层训练 题号 难度 知识点 1 较易 社团/俱乐部,应用文 2 较易 社团/俱乐部,应用文,传统工艺 3 较易 时文/广告/布告,应用文 4 较易 工作与职业,应用文 5 较易 个人信息,学校人员,应用文 6 适中 个人经历,阅读,记叙文 7 适中 个人经历,哲理感悟,记叙文 8 适中 哲理感悟,寓言童话,记叙文 9 适中 人与动植物,记叙文 10 适中 文学名著,哲理感悟,记叙文 11 适中 发明与创造,健康饮食,说明文 12 适中 中华文化,说明文,传统节日 13 适中 科学技术,说明文 14 适中 游戏,说明文,中华文化 15 适中 人与动植物,说明文 16 较难 工作与职业,说明文 17 较难 自然科学,环境保护,说明文 18 较难 科普知识,说明文 19 较难 科普知识,说明文 20 较难 外来节日,科普知识,说明文 Do you want to make new friends?

Every time her mom takes her to the bookstore, she buys two books and finishes one by bedtime. One day, Mom says Lisa should get a library card. Lisa cries, “Wow!”—she always wants one. After school, Mom takes her to the library. The lady there asks Lisa to write down her name and then tells Lisa how many books she can borrow. The next day, Lisa needs to give three books back and wants to borrow three more. But she can’t find her library card. The lady says she can’t lend (借出) Lisa’s books without it. Lisa leaves, sad and worried (担忧的). When Lisa gets home, Mom tells her a boy brings her library card—he finds it near the library. “It must drop out of (掉落) one of the books I am carrying,” says Lisa. “You are lucky that boy finds your card,” says Mom, “You need to be very careful.” Lisa says, “I think I will keep it in my schoolbag.” Mom says, “Let’s go to the library and get some books.” While they are in the library, Mom tells Lisa the boy is sitting at the round table.

Lisa cries, ‘Wow!’—she always wants one.”可知，当妈妈告诉Lisa她应该办一张借书证时，Lisa兴奋地哭了，因为她一直想要一个。因此，选项D“Lisa cries, ‘Wow’—she always wants one.”表明了Lisa的兴奋。故选D。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第五段“When Lisa gets home, Mom tells her a boy brings her library card—he finds it near the library. ‘It must drop out of (掉落) one of the books I am carrying,’ says Lisa.”可知，当Lisa回到家时，妈妈告诉她一个男孩带来了她的借书证，他在图书馆附近找到了它。Lisa说：“它一定是从我拿的书中掉出来的。”由此可以推断，“It”指的是Lisa的借书证。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Lisa goes over to him and says, ‘Thank you for finding my card.’ He tells Lisa he is glad to help, and they both look for some interesting books together. Lisa has her books, her card, and a new friend too.”可知，最后一段描述Lisa在图书馆圆桌旁感谢男孩，并一起寻找书籍，最终成为朋友。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。根据文章内容，Lisa在丢失借书证后感到伤心和担忧，但幸运的是，一个男孩找到了她的借书证并归还给她。更重要的是，Lisa因此结交了一个新朋友。因此，Lisa故事中的精彩部分是她虽然丢失了借书证，但却结交了一个新朋友。A选项“Lisa loses her card but makes a new friend.”准确地概括了这一点。故选A。 One sunny, summer day, Tom decides to go on a bike ride. It is his favourite hobby. He just learns to ride his bike and wants to be better at it. He gets on his bike and starts riding down the road. He goes past green trees and colourful flowers. It’s a nice day for a bike ride! Tom rides for some time, enjoying the fresh air and the birds singing. He feels the wind in his hair when he rides faster and faster. Just then, he sees a hill in front of him. It looks very steep (陡峭的) , but Tom is sure he can climb it. He starts riding up the hill, but it is harder than he thinks. His legs start to feel tired. He almost stops, but then he thinks to himself: I must reach the top of the hill! He keeps riding, and in the end, he gets to the top! He is very proud (自豪的) of himself. He looks around and sees a beautiful city view—tall buildings and the blue sea far away. It’s amazing! After resting for a few minutes, Tom starts to ride back down the hill. He feels the wind past him when he zooms down the road. He is really excited about how fast he goes when he rides down! When he rides back home, Tom feels happy. He is so proud that he doesn’t give up (放弃) as he rides up the big hill and can’t wait to go on another bike ride. Tom knows if he keeps trying, he will get better at climbing hills. 1．Why does Tom almost stop while climbing the hill? A．Because it is too hot. B．Because his legs feel tired.

His legs start to feel tired. He almost stops”可知，汤姆差点停下是因为“他的腿感到疲惫”。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据“After resting for a few minutes, Tom starts to ride back down the hill. He feels the wind past him when he zooms down the road. He is really excited about how fast he goes when he rides down”可知，汤姆从山顶下山时，“感到风从身边掠过”，且对“速度之快感到兴奋”，因此“zooms”意为“快速移动（Moves quickly）”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。③他骑过绿树和鲜花（第一段“He goes past green trees and colourful flowers”）；①他看到前方有一座山（第二段“Just then, he sees a hill in front of him”）；④他到达山顶，看到城市景色（第三段“in the end, he gets to the top…He looks around and sees a beautiful city view”）；②他感到兴奋，骑车回家（第四段“rides back down the hill”和第五段“When he rides back home, Tom feels happy”）；因此正确顺序为③①④②。故选B。 4．最佳标题题。文章围绕汤姆“骑自行车出游”的完整经历展开，包括途中所见、爬山挑战、山顶观景、下山体验等，核心是“骑行之旅”。故选C。 It is summer. The sun is shining brightly. The Grasshopper is lying under the tree. The Ants are busy doing something. The Grasshopper thinks the Ants are silly (愚蠢的) to work hard on such a hot day. The Ants are busy collecting food. The Grasshopper says to himself, “Look at those silly Worker Ants! How tired they are!” The Grasshopper doesn’t understand (理解) why the Ants are working so hard. But he becomes a little curious (好奇的) and says to the Queen Ant, ‘‘Come under the tree and rest for a while.” The Queen Ant says nothing and goes on working hard. “Why are you collecting food?” the Grasshopper asks. “It will be winter soon. We must get ready,” the Queen Ant answers. The Grasshopper says, “Winter is far away. There is lots of food everywhere. Stop working. Come to sing and dance with me.” The Queen Ant says nothing and just walks away. When winter comes, the Grasshopper looks around for food in the cold. He is cold and starving (饥饿的) to death (死亡), but he can’t find any food. The Grasshopper is about to fall to the ground when suddenly he thinks of the Queen Ant and Worker Ants. The Grasshopper comes to the Queen Ant’s house and knocks at the door. The Queen Ant opens the door. The Grasshopper tells the Queen Ant that he hasn’t eaten for days. The Queen Ant feels sorry for the Grasshopper and gives him some food.

His daily routines (常规) were planned to the second; one of those routines was spending time at a private club. One day, Fogg and the other club members were discussing the size of the world. According to Fogg, modern inventions, such as the railway, had made the world a much smaller place. He believed that a person could travel around the whole world in only 80 days. Fogg made a bet (打赌) when the fellow members laughed at his idea. He bet that he could return to the club in 80 days after having journeyed around the world. If Fogg lost the bet, he would lose half of his money. Fogg set off on his journey with his new servant named Passepartout. However, unknown to them, the two were being followed by Detective Fix of Scotland Yard. He believed Fogg was a thief who had stolen money from a bank. After leaving Egypt and arriving in India, the two found a woman in danger. They saved her and took her along on their journey-her name was Aouda. The three travellers made their way through China, Japan and America, facing many difficulties along the way. Some of them were created by Fix, who didn’t give up his pursuit (追捕) of Fogg. Once the group made it to New York, they sailed to Ireland and then, finally, England. There Fix finally arrested (逮捕) Fogg—only for it to turn out that the real thief had been caught. But this waste of time cost Fogg greatly. If it had not been for the arrest, Fogg would have made it back to his club in time. Although Fogg lost the bet and his wealth, Aouda asked to be his wife. Fogg happily agreed. And in another happy turn of events, Passepartout realized that, because of the time difference, the group arrived back a day early! Fogg made it back to his club just in time to win his bet. 1．Why did Phileas Fogg go on a trip around the world? A．To show others that he didn’t steal money from the bank. B．To escape (逃离) the boring daily routine of his London life. C．To prove (证明) his point and win a bet with the club members. D．To learn about the modern inventions for the other club members. 2．What influence did Detective Fix have on Fogg’s journey? A．He caused problems that made Fogg’s trip more difficult. B．He added excitement by helping Fogg when he faced challenges. C．He acted as a friend, providing support and help for Fogg. D．He was like a guide, leading Fogg through dangerous places. 3．How did Fogg manage to win the bet in the end? A．He travelled faster than he expected by taking better trains. B．He returned a day ahead of deadline because of the difference in time zone. C．Fix arrested him only to find that the real thief had been caught. D．The club members gave him an extra day to finish the journey. 4．What main lesson does Fogg’s journey teach us? A．Adventure helps people reach their own goals. B．Money and position are the most important things. C．Hard work and determination (决心) can lead to success. D．A quiet, planned life is better than taking risks (风险). 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇故事梗概，改编自《八十天环游地球》，讲述了福格为赢得赌约而进行环球旅行，历经波折最终成功的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据“Fogg made a bet...He bet that he could return to the club in 80 days after having journeyed around the world.”可知，福格进行环球旅行是为了证明自己的观点并赢得赌约。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“Some of them were created by Fix”和“this waste of time cost Fogg greatly”可知，侦探菲克斯给福格的旅程制造了麻烦。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“Passepartout realized that, because of the time difference, the group arrived back a day early!”可知，福格因时差提前一天返回，从而赢得了赌约。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。根据文中内容可知，文章通过福格面对重重困难仍坚持完成旅程并最终成功的故事，可知文章传达的主要道理是：努力和决心能带来成功。故选C。 Do you want to eat more healthily? Try Food Trainer! It’s an app from the UK. It helps people eat less unhealthy food by playing a game. In the free game, healthy food always comes in green circles (圆圈) and unhealthy food always comes in red circles. If a user clicks (点击) on a thing in the green circle, he or she will get a point. But clicking on a thing in the red circle will make the user lose a point. Does this easy game work well? The makers of the app make a study. They work with some scientists from Finland. Together they ask more than 1,200 volunteers (志愿者) to play the game once a day. After a month, the volunteers find changes in their diet. Most of them say they ate unhealthy food three to four times a week in the past. But now, they reduce this to once a week. Why does the app work so well? It’s because it uses brain training techniques (大脑训练技术). The game makes users’ brains stop when they see junk food. This helps users say no to unhealthy food in their daily lives. 1．Who may be most interested in the app Food Trainer? A．People who want to train their brains. B．People who like playing computer games. C．People who want to be more beautiful. D．People who want to eat less unhealthy food. 2．According to this passage, which of the following food may come in green circles? A．Carrots. B．Hamburgers. C．Cola.

Usually our job’s income (收入) is enough for our basic needs. But will it cover emergencies (紧急情况) and those expensive wants? Likely not. And your main job may not be as safe as you would like. Some consider it possible for robots to take over about 40 percent of all jobs in 2026. Enter the side hustle. A good one is surely helpful in dealing with your money; moreover, there are other benefits (好处). ▲ Your main job may pay the bills, but maybe it doesn’t match your passion (热情). Start a side hustle that does. Let’s say you’re a dog lover. You could make money by walking dogs or making dog toys. Or maybe you enjoy photography. Begin a side business taking people’s photos. Or set up an online store selling cards and notebooks with your photos. Doing something that you’re passionate about is an excellent reason to have a side hustle. ▲ If you’re interested in growing your wealth, you shouldn’t put all your eggs in one basket. Having a side hustle allows you to think of different ways of increasing your income. Since you don’t depend on just one job, you may feel more confident about spending money on an expensive international trip. Or you can invest (投资) more of your money because you have an extra income. ▲ The beauty of a side hustle is that it isn’t a must. You choose to do it. But, like most things, you must put in the effort (努力) to get the benefits. The flexible (灵活的) nature of a side hustle is attractive to many people. You have the freedom to decide how much time you want to spend doing it. 1．According to the article, what does “side hustle” mean? A．A type of hobby that earns money as the main income. B．A second or part-time job besides your main job. C．An activity done mostly during free time for fun. D．A business that possibly pays in times of emergency. 2．Which three of the following subtitles can be put in the blanks in the article? a. You get out of your comfort zone. b. You can increase your flow of income. c. You’re the boss of your time. d. You get to live out your passion A．abc B．dcb C．bda D．dbc 3．Which is a benefit of having several income sources (来源) ? A．You may find it easy to buy something expensive. B．You can avoid working for companies completely. C．You can enjoy walking dogs or making dog toys. D．You have full control over when and how much you work. 4．What is the writer’s opinion about having a side hustle?

A good one is surely helpful in dealing with your money”及全文内容可知，“side hustle”是除主业外用于增加收入、应对需求的兼职或副业。选项B“主业之外的第二个或兼职工作”准确解释了该词含义。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“Your main job may pay the bills, but maybe it doesn’t match your passion...Doing something that you're passionate about...”可知，该部分主题为副业可让人追求热情，对应d；根据“Having a side hustle allows you to think of different ways of increasing your income”可知，该部分主题是副业可增加收入，对应b；根据“ The flexible (灵活的) nature of a side hustle is attractive to many people. You have the freedom to decide how much time you want to spend doing it.”可知，该部分主题是副业带来的时间自由，对应c。故正确顺序为d-b-c。故选D。 3．细节理解题。 根据“Since you don’t depend on just one job, you may feel more confident about spending money on an expensive international trip”可知，拥有多个收入来源可以让人更有信心进行大额消费。故选A。 4．观点态度题。 根据全文“helpful in dealing with your money”和“match your passion”可知，作者认为副业能增加收入并发展个人兴趣，选项 B“它有助于获得额外收入和发展个人兴趣” 符合。故选B。 The ocean covers about 71% of our world and is very important in keeping us alive. While the rainforests may be called “the lungs of the planet”, scientists say it’s actually the ocean that provides 50－80% of the oxygen (氧气) we breathe. It also helps control Earth’s climate by moving heat from the equator (赤道) toward the poles (地极) to cool things down. The ocean itself is very important in the fight against climate change too. It takes in 50 times more carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) than our atmosphere (大气层). But it’s not just the ocean itself—many plants and animals in the ocean hold carbon too. Perhaps one of the most wonderful ones is the seagrass. Across the world, there are more than 70 kinds of seagrass. It grows in the underwater areas of 159 countries on six continents, covering 300,000 square kilometers. Now, that may be an area the size of Italy, but it’s hardly 0.2% of the seafloor. And this is where the seagrass comes into its own because it takes in 10% of the ocean’s carbon each year, 35 times faster than rainforests. Seagrass builds its leaves and roots using carbon and holds on to it, even after death. However, such an excellent way to help with climate change is itself under threat (威胁) from climate change, as temperature rise, storms, pollution, the long-term development of coastlines, and over-fishing have all played their roles in its decline (减少). According to the U.N. Environment Programme (UNEP), a seagrass area the size of a football field is destroyed every 30 minutes. Around the world, it is declining at a rate of about 7% a year. Unless we do something, experts say that some seagrasses will disappear for ever by 2050. Dealing with this problem will take an international effort. Luckily, some efforts have already started, in different places around the world. 1．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 1 mean? A．The oxygen B．The planet. C．The rainforest. D．The ocean 2．How can the seagrass help with climate change? A．It takes in carbon dioxide and holds carbon until it dies. B．It takes in 50 times more carbon dioxide than our atmosphere C．It takes in 10% of the ocean’s carbon and holds carbon fast. D．It grows in many underwater places and covers a large area. 3．What is the purpose (目的) of the article? A．To explain why the area of seagrass is becoming smaller every year. B．To draw readers’ attention to the pollution in the sea and make a change. C．To introduce different excellent ways to help with climate change. D．To tell readers the importance of seagrass and the problem it is facing. 4．What will probably be written next? A．What some countries have done to stop the decline of seagrass. B．Introduce the countries where seagrass is disappearing very fast. C．Describe the results caused by the decline of the seagrass. D．What scientists and experts think of the decline of the seagrass. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了海洋在应对气候变化中的重要作用，特别是海草在吸收二氧化碳和储存碳方面的显著贡献，同时指出了海草面临的威胁以及国际社会为保护海草所做的努力。 1．词句猜测题。根据第一段中“While the rainforests may be called ‘the lungs of the planet’, scientists say it’s actually the ocean that provides 50-80% of the oxygen (氧气) we breathe.”可知，虽然雨林可能被称为“地球之肺”，但科学家表示，实际上是我们呼吸的氧气中有50—80%是由海洋提供的。由此可推测，此处it指代的是前文提到的“the ocean”，即海洋。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“And this is where the seagrass comes into its own because it takes in 10% of the ocean’s carbon each year, 35 times faster than rainforests. Seagrass builds its leaves and roots using carbon and holds on to it, even after death.”可知，海草每年吸收海洋中10%的碳，比雨林快35倍，并且海草利用碳构建其叶子和根，甚至在死后也保留着碳。因此，海草通过吸收海洋中的碳并快速储存碳来帮助应对气候变化。选项C“它吸收海洋中10%的碳并快速储存碳”符合题意。故选C。 3．主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第三段中“Perhaps one of the most wonderful ones is the seagrass...And this is where the seagrass comes into its own because it takes in 10% of the ocean’s carbon each year, 35 times faster than rainforests.”和第四段中“However, such an excellent way to help with climate change is itself under threat (威胁) from climate change...”可知，文章主要介绍了海草在应对气候变化中的重要作用以及海草面临的威胁。因此，文章的目的是告诉读者海草的重要性以及它面临的问题。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dealing with this problem will take an international effort. Luckily, some efforts have already started, in different places around the world.”可知，处理这个问题需要国际社会的共同努力，幸运的是，世界各地的一些地方已经开始采取行动。由此可推测，接下来文章可能会介绍一些国家为阻止海草减少所采取的措施。故选A。 ①“Do you know Macao (澳门) was never my real name.

This can be very important to people in business that sell products (产品) all over the world. They might choose a color because they think it is exciting or nice, but in another country that same color could be used to give a sad meaning. Look at these examples: If you ask someone in Britain what the right color is for a bride (新娘) to wear, the answer will be white. In China and other Eastern countries, brides often wear red because the color red means good luck and happiness. Red is an unusual color fbr a British bride to wear. In Britain, red is used as a sign of danger. Road signs and warning things are often in red. In Eastern cultures, the color red does not mean you have to be careful. In Egypt, yellow is the color for death (死亡).In Britain and other Western cultures, death and funerals are usually linked to the color black, but in many Eastern countries white is the color people think of when it comes to death and funerals. Many people like the color orange because it is bright and exciting.
