In the age of online shopping, independent bookstores remain special places full of charm and character. Here are four unique bookshops worth visiting.
1. Falmouth Bookseller, Cornwall
Set in a lively port town, this shop offers fiction, nature writing, and local tales. Upstairs, a small and comfortable café serves Yallah coffee and large Cornish pasties. A quiet “study” provides free desks for travelers who need to work.
Tip: Manager Eloise Rowe suggests walking to Castle Beach, tasting cakes, and dipping toes in the clear seawater beneath the castle walls.
2. Far From The Madding Crowd, West Lothian
Located in an old Georgian-style building on Linlithgow’s main street, this independent bookstore with extra touches offers many Scottish books and even has a friendly shop rabbit named BB. A small quiet room welcomes silent readers, and poetry nights give local people a chance to share their voices.
Tip: Manager Sally Pattle suggests walking up to the Grange for the best views of Linlithgow Palace, the lake, and the golden tower of St Michael’s Church.
3. Wave of Nostalgia, West Yorkshire
Sitting on a hillside in Haworth, the hometown of the Brontē sisters, this store mainly offers books written by or about inspiring women, along with titles on nature and fairness. Feminist T-shirts and handmade clothes for children bring bright colors to the shelves.
Tip: Owner Diane Park says to look up — the stone street leads to open hills that gave the Brontēs their ideas.
4. Barter Books, Northumberland
Inside Alnwick’s old railway station, second-hand books are piled up like walls beneath a model train circling the ceiling. Visitors can swap paperbacks, enjoy bacon sandwiches in the Station Buffet, or have ice cream in the former stationmaster’s office.

One day, I was sitting in a local coffee shop, and staring at this man in a wheelchair. He could move his head and parts of his fingers but nothing else. He had a servant who cut up his food and placed it on a special mechanically powered fork that he would use to eat.
He saw me staring at him and invited me to join him at his table: His name was Stephen. For several hours we sat at that table and we got to know each other on a deeply personal level. I had never known a man who was more radiant (容光焕发), more energizing to talk and get to know than Stephen.
Stephen used to be a very successful businessman in Denver. He was in the natural gas business. Thirteen years before, when he was forty, he was waiting for news of a natural gas discovery to occur any moment.
He said, “I had so much nervous energy. I saw the storm clouds gathering, and I decided to clean out the gutters (檐沟) rather than sitting around waiting for this gas well to come in.”
He climbed up the ladder to clear the piles of pine needles on the roof. As he backed up, he accidentally fell off the roof. He landed on his back. He was paralyzed (瘫痪) for the rest of his life, except for his head and his hand.
I asked him, “How do you do it all? How do you suddenly stop hiking, fishing, and running marathons?” He said, “There are three things you have to do when something like this happens. The first thing you have to do is adjust. The second thing you do is adjust. And the third thing you do is adjust.”
He said, “By adjusting to your abilities, Bill, you have to change your self-expectations. If you can’t be a physical athlete any longer, then perhaps you can be a spiritual athlete.” He was.
41. The author noticed Stephen at the coffee shop because ________.
A. he looked very energetic B. he cut up his food
C. he was staring at the author D. he ate in a special way
42. What was Stephen’s occupation before his accident?
A. He was a coffee shop owner. B. He was a servant for the disabled.
C. He was a professional athlete D. He was in the natural gas business.
43. What caused Stephen’s accident?
A. He was waiting for news of a natural gas discovery.
B. He was cleaning out the gutters and fell off the ladder.
C. He was hiking and slipped on a mountain trail,
D. He was running a marathon and collapsed.
44. “A spiritual athlete” Stephen mentioned in the last paragraph might be ________.
A. humorous and sensitive B. optimistic and open-minded
C. faithful and easygoing D. sympathetic and caring
45. What advice did Stephen give about dealing with a major life change like his?
A. One should adjust to the new abilities and change self-expectations,
B. One should find a completely new hobby immediately.
C. One should give up all hope and accept the new situation.
D. One should try to go back to the old way of life as soon as possible.
C
For lots of kids, toddlerhood (幼儿期) is an important time for friendship. Studies show that the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships, the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults. Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation.
Even so, how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament. Some toddlers are very social, but others are shy. In addition, the way that toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is markedly different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship. Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior.
This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior. Regardless of how much they like a playmate, they may still grab his toys, refuse to share, and get bossy. But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kids this age. Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are. When you establish these guidelines, explain the reasons behind them.
Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”). When your child shares or shows empathy (同理心) toward a friend, praise him (“Ben stopped crying You made him feel better.”).
Another way to encourage healthy social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words — not fists — to express how they feel. It’s also important to be mindful of how your child’s personality affects playtime. Kids are easy to get angry when they’ re sleepy or hungry, so schedule playtime when they’ re refreshed.
46. What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates’ behavior?
A. They are interested in acting. B. They are shy with the strangers.
C. They are fond of their playmates. D. They are tired of playing games.
47. What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?
A. Behavior. B. Talent. C. Enthusiastic. D. Character.
48. What does the author suggest parents do for their kids?
A. Design games for them. B. Find them suitable playmates.
C. Play together with them. D. Help them understand social rules.
49. What is the function of the quoted statements in paragraph 4?
A. Giving examples. B. Explaining concepts. C. Providing evidence. D. Making comparisons.
50. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. How Children Adapt to Changes B. How to Be Role Model for Children
C. How Your Baby Learns to Love D. How to communicate with Your Kid
D
Ralph Emerson once said that the purpose of life is not to be happy, but to be useful, to be loving, to make some difference in the world. While we appreciate such words of wisdom, we rarely try to follow them in our lives.
Most people prefer to live a good life themselves, ignoring their responsibilities for the world. This narrow perception of a good life may provide short-term benefits, but is sure to lead to long-term harm and suffering. A good life based on comfort and luxury may eventually lead to more pain because we spoil our health and even our character, principles, ideals, and relationships.
What then is the secret of a good life? A good life is a process, not a state of being: a direction, not a destination. We have to earn a good life by first serving others without any anticipation in return because their happiness is the very source of our own happiness. More importantly, we must know ourselves inside out. Only when we examine ourselves deeply can we discover our abilities and recognize our limitations, and then work accordingly to create a better world.
The first requirement for a good life is having a loving heart. When we do certain right things merely as a duty, we find our job so tiresome that we'll soon burn out. However, when we do that same job out of love, we not only enjoy what we do, but also do it with an effortless feeling.
However, love alone is insufficient to lead a good life. Love sometimes blinds us to the reality. Consequently, our good intentions may not lead to good results. To achieve desired outcome, those who want to do good to others also need to equip themselves with accurate world knowledge. False knowledge is more dangerous than ignorance. If love is the engine of a car, knowledge is the steering wheel (方向盘). If the engine lacks power, the car can’t move; if the driver loses control of the steering, a road accident probably occurs. Only with love in heart and the right knowledge in mind can we lead a good life.
With love and knowledge, we go all out to create a better world by doing good to others. When we see the impact of our good work on the world, we give meaning to our life and earn lasting joy and happiness.
51. What effect does the narrow perception of a good life have on us?
A. Making us simple-minded. B. Making us short-sighted.
C. Leading us onto a busy road. D. Keeping us from comfort and luxury.
52. According to the author, how can one gain true happiness?
A. Through maintaining good health. B. By going through pain and suffering.
C. By recognizing one’s abilities and limitations. D. Through offering help much needed by others.
53. According to Paragraph 4, doing certain right things with a loving heart makes one ________.
A. less selfish B. less pessimistic C. more motivated D. more responsible
54. In what case may good intentions fail to lead to desired results?
A. When we have wrong knowledge of the world. B. When our love for the world is insufficient.
C. When we are insensitive to dangers in life. D. When we stay blind to the reality.
55. According to Paragraph 5, life can be made truly good when ________.
A. inspired by love and guided by knowledge B. directed by love and pushed by knowledge
C. purified by love and enriched by knowledge D. promoted by love and defined by knowledge

阅读下面短文,按照要求用英语回答问题。
I was in a shopping mall recently, so I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an older gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch stretched out in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it. It was also rather evident that he had a problem with his right eye and probably couldn’t see out of it. I then joined the line and waited to be served.
Then it happened. One of the most beautiful gestures I have ever seen in my life.
There was a young man in front of me in the line who was also waiting to be served. Then the young man handed the server a twenty-dollar bill and requested an orange juice, as well as a favour. The server looked at the young man a little perplexed, not fully understanding the request. That was when the young man asked her to give the juice to the older gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench, as well as the change from the girl except her tip. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe at all times. Subsequently, there was a wonderful exchange between the server and the older man in need of some attention. I only wish I had a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.
As I was pondering this event later on, I wondered to myself why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I suspect that deep down in his heart he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for this older man as well. Absolutely beautiful!
There are many ways of thinking when we encounter someone like this older gentleman, in need of kindness and attention. Perhaps he’s just simply lazy and didn’t work hard enough in his life. Or he should have gone to school and made more of himself. But just maybe he needs a little helping hand. Thank God for this young man who inspired the others to goodness as well. Oh, by the way, the last words this young man told the server was, “There go I, but by the Grace of God.”
56. What did the writer notice about the older gentleman when going to the coffee shop?(no more than 20 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
57. What does the underlined word “perplexed” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?(1 word)
______________________________________________________________________________
58. How did the young man help the old man?(no more than 15 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
59. Why didn’t the young man do the act of kindness-himself in the author’s eyes?(no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
60. Will you help others who are in need of help? And why?(no more than 20 words)

In the age of online shopping, independent bookstores remain special places full of charm and character. Here are four unique bookshops worth visiting.
1. Falmouth Bookseller, Cornwall
Set in a lively port town, this shop offers fiction, nature writing, and local tales. Upstairs, a small and comfortable café serves Yallah coffee and large Cornish pasties. A quiet “study” provides free desks for travelers who need to work.
Tip: Manager Eloise Rowe suggests walking to Castle Beach, tasting cakes, and dipping toes in the clear seawater beneath the castle walls.
2. Far From The Madding Crowd, West Lothian
Located in an old Georgian-style building on Linlithgow’s main street, this independent bookstore with extra touches offers many Scottish books and even has a friendly shop rabbit named BB. A small quiet room welcomes silent readers, and poetry nights give local people a chance to share their voices.
Tip: Manager Sally Pattle suggests walking up to the Grange for the best views of Linlithgow Palace, the lake, and the golden tower of St Michael’s Church.

Tip: Owner Diane Park says to look up — the stone street leads to open hills that gave the Brontēs their ideas.
4. Barter Books, Northumberland
Inside Alnwick’s old railway station, second-hand books are piled up like walls beneath a model train circling the ceiling. Visitors can swap paperbacks, enjoy bacon sandwiches in the Station Buffet, or have ice cream in the former stationmaster’s office.

One day, I was sitting in a local coffee shop, and staring at this man in a wheelchair. He could move his head and parts of his fingers but nothing else. He had a servant who cut up his food and placed it on a special mechanically powered fork that he would use to eat.
He saw me staring at him and invited me to join him at his table: His name was Stephen. For several hours we sat at that table and we got to know each other on a deeply personal level. I had never known a man who was more radiant (容光焕发), more energizing to talk and get to know than Stephen.
Stephen used to be a very successful businessman in Denver. He was in the natural gas business. Thirteen years before, when he was forty, he was waiting for news of a natural gas discovery to occur any moment.
He said, “I had so much nervous energy. I saw the storm clouds gathering, and I decided to clean out the gutters (檐沟) rather than sitting around waiting for this gas well to come in.”
He climbed up the ladder to clear the piles of pine needles on the roof. As he backed up, he accidentally fell off the roof. He landed on his back. He was paralyzed (瘫痪) for the rest of his life, except for his head and his hand.
I asked him, “How do you do it all? How do you suddenly stop hiking, fishing, and running marathons?” He said, “There are three things you have to do when something like this happens. The first thing you have to do is adjust. The second thing you do is adjust. And the third thing you do is adjust.”
He said, “By adjusting to your abilities, Bill, you have to change your self-expectations. If you can’t be a physical athlete any longer, then perhaps you can be a spiritual athlete.” He was.

A. he looked very energetic B. he cut up his food

For lots of kids, toddlerhood (幼儿期) is an important time for friendship. Studies show that the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships, the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults. Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation.
Even so, how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament. Some toddlers are very social, but others are shy. In addition, the way that toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is markedly different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship. Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior.
This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior. Regardless of how much they like a playmate, they may still grab his toys, refuse to share, and get bossy. But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kids this age. Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are. When you establish these guidelines, explain the reasons behind them.
Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”). When your child shares or shows empathy (同理心) toward a friend, praise him (“Ben stopped crying You made him feel better.”).
Another way to encourage healthy social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words — not fists — to express how they feel. It’s also important to be mindful of how your child’s personality affects playtime. Kids are easy to get angry when they’ re sleepy or hungry, so schedule playtime when they’ re refreshed.
46. What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates’ behavior?
A. They are interested in acting. B. They are shy with the strangers.
C. They are fond of their playmates. D. They are tired of playing games.
47. What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?
A. Behavior. B. Talent. C. Enthusiastic. D. Character.
48. What does the author suggest parents do for their kids?
A Design games for them. B. Find them suitable playmates.
C. Play together with them. D. Help them understand social rules.
49. What is the function of the quoted statements in paragraph 4?
A. Giving examples. B. Explaining concepts. C. Providing evidence. D. Making comparisons.
50. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. How Children Adapt to Changes B. How to Be Role Model for Children
C. How Your Baby Learns to Love D. How to communicate with Your Kid
【答案】46. C 47. D 48. D 49. A 50. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了幼儿如何学会表达喜爱并建立友谊,以及父母应如何引导。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior.(俄亥俄州立大学哥伦布分校的研究发现,幼儿在玩耍时表达“我喜欢你”的方式很可能是模仿朋友的行为。)”可知,幼儿模仿玩伴的行为表明他们喜欢自己的玩伴。故选C。
【47题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Even so, how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament. Some toddlers are very social, but others are shy.(即便如此,孩子成长为社交达人的速度也可能取决于他的temperament。有些幼儿非常外向,但有些则很害羞。)”可知,幼儿社交能力的发展速度可能取决于他们的性格,因为有些幼儿非常外向,但有些则很害羞。故此处temperament意为“性格”。A. Behavior行为;B. Talent天赋;C. Enthusiastic热情的;D. Character性格。故选D。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are. When you establish these guidelines, explain the reasons behind them.(通过游戏体验,幼儿学习社交规则。这就是为什么在你的幼儿的社交活动中扮演积极的角色,设定限制并经常提醒他们这些规则是如此重要。当你制定这些准则时,要解释背后的原因。)”可知,作者建议父母帮助孩子理解社交规则。故选D。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”). When your child shares or shows empathy (同理心) toward a friend, praise him (“Ben stopped crying You made him feel better.”).(首先帮助你的孩子学会同情(“本在哭。是什么让他这么伤心?”),然后建议他如何解决这个问题(“如果你让他玩球,他可能会感觉好一些。”)。当你的孩子对朋友分享或表现出同理心时,表扬他(“本不哭了,你让他感觉好多了。”)。)”可知,第四段中引用的陈述的作用是举例说明如何帮助孩子学会同情和解决问题。故选A。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“For lots of kids, toddlerhood (幼儿期) is an important time for friendship. Studies show that the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships, the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults. Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation.(对很多孩子来说,幼儿期是建立友谊的重要时期。研究表明,孩子们越早学会建立积极的人际关系,他们在青少年和成年时就越善于与他人相处。一起玩耍也有助于这些孩子练习社交行为,如善良、分享和合作。)”可知,文章主要讲述了幼儿如何学会表达喜爱并建立友谊,以及父母应如何引导。因此,C选项“How Your Baby Learns to Love(你的孩子如何学会爱)”最符合文章主旨。故选C。
D
Ralph Emerson once said that the purpose of life is not to be happy, but to be useful, to be loving, to make some difference in the world. While we appreciate such words of wisdom, we rarely try to follow them in our lives.
Most people prefer to live a good life themselves, ignoring their responsibilities for the world. This narrow perception of a good life may provide short-term benefits, but is sure to lead to long-term harm and suffering. A good life based on comfort and luxury may eventually lead to more pain because we spoil our health and even our character, principles, ideals, and relationships.
What then, is the secret of a good life? A good life is a process, not a state of being: a direction, not a destination. We have to earn a good life by first serving others without any anticipation in return because their happiness is the very source of our own happiness. More importantly, we must know ourselves inside out. Only when we examine ourselves deeply can we discover our abilities and recognize our limitations, and then work accordingly to create a better world.
The first requirement for a good life is having a loving heart. When we do certain right things merely as a duty, we find our job so tiresome that we'll soon burn out. However, when we do that same job out of love, we not only enjoy what we do, but also do it with an effortless feeling.
However, love alone is insufficient to lead a good life. Love sometimes blinds us to the reality. Consequently, our good intentions may not lead to good results. To achieve desired outcome, those who want to do good to others also need to equip themselves with accurate world knowledge. False knowledge is more dangerous than ignorance. If love is the engine of a car, knowledge is the steering wheel (方向盘). If the engine lacks power, the car can’t move; if the driver loses control of the steering, a road accident probably occurs. Only with love in heart and the right knowledge in mind can we lead a good life.
With love and knowledge, we go all out to create a better world by doing good to others. When we see the impact of our good work on the world, we give meaning to our life and earn lasting joy and happiness.
51. What effect does the narrow perception of a good life have on us?
A. Making us simple-minded. B. Making us short-sighted.
C. Leading us onto a busy road. D. Keeping us from comfort and luxury.
52. According to the author, how can one gain true happiness?
A. Through maintaining good health. B. By going through pain and suffering.
C. By recognizing one’s abilities and limitations. D. Through offering help much needed by others.
53. According to Paragraph 4, doing certain right things with a loving heart makes one ________.
A. less selfish B. less pessimistic C. more motivated D. more responsible
54. In what case may good intentions fail to lead to desired results?
A. When we have wrong knowledge of the world. B. When our love for the world is insufficient.
C. When we are insensitive to dangers in life. D. When we stay blind to the reality.
55. According to Paragraph 5, life can be made truly good when ________.
A. inspired by love and guided by knowledge B. directed by love and pushed by knowledge
C. purified by love and enriched by knowledge D. promoted by love and defined by knowledge
【答案】51. B 52. D 53. C 54. A 55. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了美好生活的秘诀是什么,人生的目的不是生而快乐,而是生而有益。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Most people prefer to live a good life themselves, ignoring their responsibilities for the world. This narrow perception of a good life may provide short-term benefits, but is sure to lead to long-term harm and suffering. (大多数人更喜欢自己过上好日子,而忽视了自己对世界的责任。这种对美好生活的狭隘看法可能会带来短期的好处,但肯定会导致长期的伤害和痛苦)”可知,对美好生活的狭隘看法只会带来短期好处,让我们忽视长远影响,即让我们目光短浅。故选B。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“We have to earn a good life by first serving others without any anticipation in return because their happiness is the very source of our own happiness. (我们必须首先为他人服务而不期望任何回报来赢得美好的生活,因为他们的幸福正是我们自己幸福的源泉)”可知,一个人通过为他人提供急需的帮助,才能获得真正的幸福。故选D。
【53题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, when we do that same job out of love, we not only enjoy what we do, but also do it with an effortless feeling. (然而,当我们出于爱做同样的工作时,我们不仅享受我们所做的,而且也以一种轻松的感觉去做)”可知,带着爱心去做正确的事情会让人更加享受过程,从而更有动力。故选C。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“However, love alone is insufficient to lead a good life. Love sometimes blinds us to the reality. Consequently, our good intentions may not lead to good results. To achieve desired outcome, those who want to do good to others also need to equip themselves with accurate world knowledge. (然而,光有爱是不够的。爱有时会让我们对现实视而不见。因此,我们的好意可能不会带来好的结果。为了达到预期的效果,那些想要为别人做好事的人也需要用准确的世界知识来武装自己)”可知,当我们对世界有错误的认识时,好心可能不会带来好的结果。故选A。
【55题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Only with love in heart and the right knowledge in mind can we lead a good life. (只有心中有爱,心中有正确的知识,我们才能过上美好的生活)”可知,当生活受到爱的启发和知识的引导时,我们才能真正过上好日子。故选A。
第Ⅱ卷 (满分35分)
阅读表达 (每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面短文,按照要求用英语回答问题。
I was in a shopping mall recently, so I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an older gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch stretched out in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it. It was also rather evident that he had a problem with his right eye and probably couldn’t see out of it. I then joined the line and waited to be served.
Then it happened. One of the most beautiful gestures I have ever seen in my life.
There was a young man in front of me in the line who was also waiting to be served. Then the young man handed the server a twenty-dollar bill and requested an orange juice, as well as a favour. The server looked at the young man a little perplexed, not fully understanding the request. That was when the young man asked her to give the juice to the older gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench, as well as the change from the girl except her tip. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe at all times. Subsequently, there was a wonderful exchange between the server and the older man in need of some attention. I only wish I had a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.
As I was pondering this event later on, I wondered to myself why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I suspect that deep down in his heart he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for this older man as well. Absolutely beautiful!
There are many ways of thinking when we encounter someone like this older gentleman, in need of kindness and attention. Perhaps he’s just simply lazy and didn’t work hard enough in his life. Or he should have gone to school and made more of himself. But just maybe he needs a little helping hand. Thank God for this young man who inspired the others to goodness as well. Oh, by the way, the last words this young man told the server was, “There go I, but by the Grace of God.”
56. What did the writer notice about the older gentleman when going to the coffee shop?(no more than 20 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
57. What does the underlined word “perplexed” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?(1 word)
______________________________________________________________________________
58. How did the young man help the old man?(no more than 15 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
59. Why didn’t the young man do the act of kindness-himself in the author’s eyes?(no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
60. Will you help others who are in need of help? And why?(no more than 20 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】56. The older gentleman was poorly dressed, eating his lunch alone, and had a problem with his right eye.
57. Confused/Surprised/Puzzled.
58. He paid for an orange juice and asked the server to give it and the change to the old man.
59. Because he wanted to inspire others to help the older man.
60. Yes, I will. Because others may really need help from me and I’m inspired by the young man from the passage.

【56题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段“As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an older gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch stretched out in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it. It was also rather evident that he had a problem with his right eye and probably couldn’t see out of it.(在前往咖啡店的路上,我注意到一位衣着破旧的老先生坐在附近的长椅上。我一眼就看出他需要某种帮助。他面前摆放着一份简单的午餐,正全神贯注地享用着。很明显,他的右眼有问题,可能已经看不见了)”可知,当去咖啡店时,作者注意到了这位老先生衣衫褴褛,一个人吃午饭,右眼也有毛病。故回答:The older gentleman was poorly dressed, eating his lunch alone, and had a problem with his right eye.
【57题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据下文“not fully understanding the request.(没有完全理解他的要求)”可知,这位服务员对这个年轻人提出的要求感到有一些困惑。由此可知,perplexed意为“困惑的”。故回答:Confused/Surprised/Puzzled.
【58题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段“There was a young man in front of me in the line who was also waiting to be served. Then the young man handed the server a twenty-dollar bill and requested an orange juice, as well as a favour. The server looked at the young man a little perplexed, not fully understanding the request. That was when the young man asked her to give the juice to the older gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench, as well as the change from the girl except her tip.(在我前面排队等着点餐的还有一位年轻人。接着,这个年轻人递给服务员一张二十美元的钞票,点了一杯橙汁,还提了一个请求。服务员一脸困惑地看着他,没完全明白他的意思。就在这时,年轻人请她把那杯橙汁送给外面长椅上正在吃午餐的老先生,并且把找零(除了她应得的小费)也一并给老先生)”可知,年轻人付了一杯橙汁的钱,让服务员把钱和找零都给了老人。故回答:He paid for an orange juice and asked the server to give it and the change to the old man.
【59题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章倒数第二段“I suspect that deep down in his heart he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for this older man as well.(我猜想,在他内心深处,他希望这一善举能激励其他人也为这位老人做点什么)”可知,在作者眼中,这个年轻人没有自己去把饮料和钱送给老人,是因为他想激励别人去帮助这位老人。故回答:Because he wanted to inspire others to help the older man.
【60题详解】
考查开放性试题。面对生活中需要帮助的人,我会选择帮助他。因为其他人可能真的需要帮助,并且我受到了文章中年轻人的鼓励。故回答:Yes, I will. Because others may really need help from me and I’m inspired by the young man from the passage.

Dear Chris,
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear Chris,
I’m glad to hear that you plan to hold a week-long event for international students with the theme “Beautiful Tianjin”. I’d love to contribute some suggestions on how to make it an unforgettable activity.
A city walk would be an excellent beginning. Imagine rolling through the historic streets of Tianjin like the European-style buildings along the Five Avenues or the lively Ancient Culture Street. This exploration not only allows participants to soak in Tianjin unique blend of history and modernity, but also improves their understanding and appreciation of the city’s heritage. Then you can organize a photographic exhibition where students can show their visual narratives of Tianjin. This platform will share the beauty of Tianjin from diverse perspectives.
I recommend these activities because they offer wonderful experiences that go beyond the sightseeing, and foster connections among students from different backgrounds. I wish your event to be a great success.
Yours,
Li Jin
