Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When I was 9,we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow,London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless bluesky days,I felt at a loss and out of place.Until I made a discovery.
Southbank,at an eastern bend in the Thames,is the center of British skateboarding,where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favourite: Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don't worry about it.Once,when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆),I fell onto the stones,damaging a nerve in my hand,and Toby came over,helping me up:Safe,man.Safe.A few minutes later,when I landed the trick,my friends beat their boards loud,shouting:“ Safe!Safe!Safe! ”And that's what mattered—landing tricks,being a good skater.
When I was 15,my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there,but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years,I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004,I found myself wandering down to Southbank,spending hours there.I've travelled back several times since,most recently this past spring.The day was cold but clear:tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving (穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards,I found my way to the beam.Then a railthin teenager,in a baggy white Tshirt,skidded (滑) up to the beam.He sat next to me.He seemed not to notice the man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him.Then,slowly,he began to nod his head.“Safe,man.Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said.“Safe.”
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者自己的经历。作者起初搬到伦敦很不习惯,但是由于找到了玩滑板的地方,结识了玩滑板的朋友,因此很快适应了新环境。成年后的作者重返伦敦后,经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆,在与一个玩滑板的孩子打招呼的时候,找到了久违的熟悉感。
1.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?
A.He felt disappointed.
B.He gave up his hobby.
C.He liked the weather there.
D.He had disagreements with his family.
解析:A [推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,除了作者之外的家里人都很快适应了这座城市。没有了作者喜爱的沙滩和蓝天,作者感到迷茫和无措。显然,作者刚到伦敦的时候不能很好地融入新的城市,感到很沮丧,故选A。]
2.What do the underlined words“Safe!Safe!Safe!”probably mean?
A.Be careful! B.Well done!
C.No way! D.Don't worry!
解析:B [词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“And that's what mattered—landing tricks,being a good skater.(那才是真正重要的——掌握了滑板的落地技巧才是一名好的滑板玩家。) ”可知,作者掌握了滑板落地技巧,因此他的朋友大声欢呼,由此推断,画线部分是赞美的含义,结合选项,故选B。]
3.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London?
A.To join the skateboarding.
B.To make new friends.
C.To learn more tricks.
D.To relive his childhood days.
解析:D [推理判断题。根据第四段最后的对话“‘I was a local here 20 years ago,’I told him.Then,slowly,he began to nod his head.‘Safe,man.Safe.’ (我告诉他:‘我20年前经常在这里玩滑板。’然后,他缓慢地开始向我点头:‘嗨,你好!’) ”可推知,作者去Southbank这个地方是为了寻找自己玩滑板的回忆,故选D。]
4.What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A.Children should learn a second language.
B.Sport is necessary for children's health.
C.Children need a sense of belonging.
D.Seeing the world is a must for children.
解析:C [推理判断题。根据全文内容可知,刚到伦敦作者很不适应,但由于找到了玩滑板的地方,结识了玩滑板的朋友,因此很快适应了。后来作者搬去华盛顿,因为没有遇到很好的玩滑板的朋友,几年之后就不再玩滑板。作者重返伦敦后,经常去之前玩滑板的地方寻找自己的回忆,并找到了自己久违的熟悉感。可见,作者要表达的是,归属感对于孩子来说是很重要的,故选C。]

With bushfires continuing to swallow different parts of Australia,a local zoo in New South Wales—the state which is the easiest to catch fire—has hit the headlines with a heartwarming story.
Right in the line of a bushfire,the keepers of Mogo Wildlife Park managed to protect all 200 animals from harm after they received evacuation orders,according to reports.
Netizens were quick to react on social media and praised the bravery of the zoo keeper and staffs,as they stayed and managed to protect animals from uncontrolled fires and even sheltered some at their own house.
The 40yearold zoo keeper,Chad Staples,described the situation as the worst catastrophe,which felt like Armageddon (大决战) here.Luckily,his team had made a precise plan ahead of time by moving everything flammable from the area and the larger animals to safe places.
What's remarkable is that as the smaller ones needed extra shelter,Staples decided to take them to his own house.
“Right now in my house there are animals of all descriptions in all the different rooms.They are safe and protected...not a single animal lost,”he said.
BBC News also mentioned that “there's a tiger to the back of the house”.
Some media outlets highlighted the“heroic job”in their headlines.Online users also reacted with thumbsup and were glad to see all the staff and animals coming through the horrific fire.
Located in the southern coast of New South Wales,Mogo Wildlife Park houses Australia's largest collection of primates,also including different and unique animals such as zebras,giraffes,rhinos and red pandas.
