As a first-year student studying Computer Science at Qingdao Agricultural University (青岛农业大学), this was Meng’s first time home after he went to university. His parents were farmers in Dadianzi village. They grew corn and fruits to make money. Heavy rain had been falling for several days. It made the fields too wet for machines to work. The family might lose all their corn if they didn’t act quickly. Right away, Meng started working with his father in the fields. They worked from morning until night, picking corn by hand and putting it into baskets. They did this for eight long days. “If I do more, my parents can do less,” Meng said later. The work was very tiring, but he never said anything bad about it. Because Meng Cheng grew up on the farm, he felt the land and crops (庄稼) were deep in his heart. He was happy to share the heavy work with his family. When Meng shared some videos on the Internet, many people were touched by his story. However, some questioned if he wanted to be famous or sell farm crops. Meng said clearly that making videos was just his hobby. He said his most important thing was studying and his bigger dream—to use computer skills to help farmers like his parents. After the holiday, Meng went back to school with some corn to remember home. In the future, he wants to keep studying and use computer science to make farming easier for farmers. His holiday brought him not only corn but also important lessons about love and duty that will always stay with him. 21. How do Meng Cheng’s parents make money? A. By feeding ducks and pigs B.

Look closely at the world of insects, and you will find many interesting facts. Let’s take butterflies as an example. They have beautiful, colorful wings and strong, fantastic flying skills. On summer days, you always see them flying freely over flower gardens and wild fields. ②But do you know how a butterfly grows? It is one of the most fantastic wonders (奇观) of nature. First, a butterfly lays (产卵) a small colorful egg on a leaf of a plant. ③It’s hard to believe that the egg will become something completely different in a few days. It becomes a walking insect called a caterpillar. It now has legs, eyes and a large body. A new life begins. The caterpillar can eat, walk, and see. But it is still not a butterfly. ④After the caterpillar grows big, it makes a cover to protect itself. It stays inside this soft cover and goes to sleep. We call it the “pupa” stage (成蛹阶段). ⑤After some days, the cover breaks open. A wet and weak (脆弱的) butterfly comes out. It has six legs, a mouth, eyes, and wings. Soon, the wings become dry and strong. The beautiful butterfly spreads (伸展) its wings and flies away. A few weeks later, this butterfly lays her eggs, and the life cycle starts again. ⑥This is just one example of the wonders of nature. Look around the natural world, and you will learn many truly amazing things. 26. What can we know about butterflies from Paragraph 1? A. Butterflies are a kind of insects. B. Butterflies are very common in winter. C. Butterflies have white wings. D. Butterflies have a good sense of smell. 27. What does the underlined word caterpillar in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese? A 虫卵 B. 幼虫 C. 蛹 D. 蝴蝶 28. What is the right order of the growth of a butterfly? ① It becomes a pupa. ②It becomes a walking insect. ③A butterfly lays an egg. ④It spreads wings and flies away. A. ①②③④ B. ①②④③ C. ③②①④ D. ③②④① 29. Why does the writer write the last paragraph? A. To describe another wonder of nature B. To ask people to watch butterflies more C. To end the story of the butterfly’s life D. To encourage readers to explore more in nature 30. What is the best title for the text? A. One insect, different colors B. One insect, four lives C. The kinds of butterflies D. The habits of butterflies 【答案】26. A 27. B 28. C 29. D 30. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要以蝴蝶为例，介绍了其从产卵、变为幼虫、成蛹到展翅飞走的完整生命周期，展现了自然界的奇观并鼓励读者探索自然。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Nature is amazing! Look closely at the world of insects, and you will find many interesting facts. Let’s take butterflies as an example.”可知，蝴蝶是一种昆虫。故选A。 【27题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“It becomes a walking insect called a caterpillar. It now has legs, eyes and a large body. A new life begins. The caterpillar can eat, walk, and see. But it is still not a butterfly.”以及后文提到的“成蛹阶段”可知，蝴蝶产卵后会变成能爬、能吃、能看但还不是蝴蝶的幼虫，因此“caterpillar”意为“幼虫”。故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章描述：“First, a butterfly lays (产卵) a small colorful egg on a leaf of a plant.”（③蝴蝶产卵）→ “It becomes a walking insect called a caterpillar.”（②变成会爬的昆虫）→ “After the caterpillar grows big, it makes a cover to protect itself... We call it the ‘pupa’ stage (成蛹阶段).”（①变成蛹）→ “The beautiful butterfly spreads (伸展) its wings and flies away.”（④展翅飞走）可知，蝴蝶生长的正确顺序是③②①④。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“This is just one example of the wonders of nature. Look around the natural world, and you will learn many truly amazing things.”可知，作者在最后一段提到这只是自然界奇观的一个例子，呼吁人们观察自然世界，因此目的是鼓励读者探索更多自然界的奥秘。故选D。 【30题详解】 最佳标题题。根据文章内容，蝴蝶的生命周期依次经历“卵→幼虫→蛹→成虫”四个阶段，每个阶段形态完全不同，如同四种不同的生命形态，因此“一种昆虫，四种生命”最适合作为文章标题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Many people love capybaras (水豚) these days because these cute animals are always calm (冷静的).

From an early age, she tried to be kind and friendly to everyone. She invited the whole class to her birthday party and sometimes gave small gifts to everyone. However, everything changed on International Day of Friendship (国际友谊日). That day, everyone had to make three gifts to give to their three best friends. Fiona was happy to pick three classmates as her “best friends” to give gifts. However, when all gifts were handed out (分发), she was the only one who got no gifts! She felt really sad and cried for hours. Everyone came to comfort (安慰) her, but they left quickly—just like she often did to others before. She realized she was a good companion (伙伴), but she wasn’t a true friend to anyone. Although she tried to be close to everyone, she found that wasn’t enough to create true friendships. That night, Fiona told her mother about everything. Her mother said, “My dear, you cannot buy friends with a smile or a few good words. If you want true friends, you must give them time and real care. To have true friends, you need to spend time with them and care about them truly—you should be there for them when they are happy or sad.” Hearing this, Fiona decided to change her ways to have some true friends. As she lay in bed that night, she thought about how to do this. She thought about her mother, who was always ready to help her, put up with (容忍) her bad habits, encouraged her and loved her deeply. That’s what a true friend is! Fiona smiled happily—she knew she already had the best friend in the world. 46.

Science B During the National Day holiday, while most university (大学) students enjoyed their holiday happily, 19-year-old Meng Cheng went back to his family’s cornfield (玉米地) in Shandong Province. As a first-year student studying Computer Science at Qingdao Agricultural University (青岛农业大学), this was Meng’s first time home after he went to university. His parents were farmers in Dadianzi village. They grew corn and fruits to make money. Heavy rain had been falling for several days. It made the fields too wet for machines to work. The family might lose all their corn if they didn’t act quickly. Right away, Meng started working with his father in the fields. They worked from morning until night, picking corn by hand and putting it into baskets. They did this for eight long days. “If I do more my parents can do less,” Meng said later. The work was very tiring, but he never said anything bad about it. Because Meng Cheng grew up on the farm, he felt the land and crops (庄稼) were deep in his heart. He was happy to share the heavy work with his family. When Meng shared some videos on the Internet, many people were touched by his story. However, some questioned if he wanted to be famous or sell farm crops. Meng said clearly that making videos was just his hobby. He said his most important thing was studying and his bigger dream—to use computer skills to help farmers like his parents. After the holiday, Meng went back to school with some corn to remember home. In the future, he wants to keep studying and use computer science to make farming easier for farmers. His holiday brought him not only corn but also important lessons about love and duty that will always stay with him. 21. How do Meng Cheng’s parents make money? A. By feeding ducks and pigs B. By growing corn and fruits C. By sharing short videos online D. By selling farming machines 22. Why did Meng Cheng and his father pick the corn by hand? A. Because they wanted to save money. B.

Let’s take butterflies as an example. They have beautiful, colorful wings and strong, fantastic flying skills. On summer days, you always see them flying freely over flower gardens and wild fields. ②But do you know how a butterfly grows? It is one of the most fantastic wonders (奇观) of nature. First, a butterfly lays (产卵) a small colorful egg on a leaf of a plant. ③It’s hard to believe that the egg will become something completely different in a few days. It becomes a walking insect called a caterpillar. It now has legs, eyes and a large body. A new life begins. The caterpillar can eat, walk, and see. But it is still not a butterfly. ④After the caterpillar grows big, it makes a cover to protect itself. It stays inside this soft cover and goes to sleep. We call it the “pupa” stage (成蛹阶段). ⑤After some days, the cover breaks open. A wet and weak (脆弱) butterfly comes out. It has six legs, a mouth, eyes, and wings. Soon, the wings become dry and strong. The beautiful butterfly spreads (伸展) its wings and flies away. A few weeks later, this butterfly lays her eggs, and the life cycle starts again. ⑥This is just one example of the wonders of nature. Look around the natural world, and you will learn many truly amazing things. 26. What can we know about butterflies from Paragraph 1? A. Butterflies are a kind of insects. B.

From an early age, she tried to be kind and friendly to everyone. She invited the whole class to her birthday party and sometimes gave small gifts to everyone. However, everything changed on International Day of Friendship (国际友谊日). That day, everyone had to make three gifts to give to their three best friends. Fiona was happy to pick three classmates as her “best friends” to give gifts. However, when all gifts were handed out (分发), she was the only one who got no gifts! She felt really sad and cried for hours. Everyone came to comfort (安慰) her, but they left quickly—just like she often did to others before. She realized she was a good companion (伙伴), but she wasn’t a true friend to anyone. Although she tried to be close to everyone, she found that wasn’t enough to create true friendships. That night, Fiona told her mother about everything. Her mother said, “My dear, you cannot buy friends with a smile or a few good words. If you want true friends, you must give them time and real care. To have true friends, you need to spend time with them and care about them truly—you should be there for them when they are happy or sad.” Hearing this, Fiona decided to change her ways to have some true friends. As she lay in bed that night, she thought about how to do this. She thought about her mother, who was always ready to help her, put up with (容忍) her bad habits, encouraged her and loved her deeply. That’s what a true friend is! Fiona smiled happily—she knew she already had the best friend in the world. 46.
