03 破·考点攻坚
阅读表达题型概述
记叙文是阅读表达考查频率最高的文章类型,少见说明文和议论文。
难度设定方面,记叙文往往属于中等难度,可读性强,容易总体把握。长难句偶尔出现,比说明文、议论文少。
内容方面,阅读表达记叙文的内容往往比较套路。写事件= 歌颂真善美或抒发积极的情感;写人= 刻画正面积极的人物形象或表达对人物的积极情感。
行文结构方面,现在高考记叙文大多都属于夹叙夹议型,可能先叙后议、先议后叙,也有可能边叙边议。这类文章需要结合记叙文和议论文两种文体的特点理解、分析。
从文章的话题方面,记叙文分为写事记叙文和写人记叙文。两类文章的行文结构、话题侧重点、主旨以及事件数量都有较为明显的区别。
二、话题、主旨策略
记叙文中,话题在开头引出,主旨在结尾点明。
例 1
话题开头:My first travel abroad
主旨:Traveling abroad for the first time taught me to embrace uncertainty and adapt to new cultures.
例 2
话题开头:My favorite book
主旨:Reading my favorite book inspired me to think critically and explore my own creativity.

考点一 词义猜测题
(2023年6月·天津卷)
Herman Cruse, a school bus driver from New Jersey, has been with Middle Township Public Schools for the past nine years. He believes bus drivers are the eyes and ears of students when they're away from home and they have a gift to discern what kids are feeling.
During one morning ride, Cruse noticed a kindergartner seemed a little sad. When Cruse asked him what was wrong, the boy explained that he wasn't able to complete his reading assignment because his parents were busy with his four siblings (兄弟姐妹). An idea suddenly crossed Cruse's mind. “Listen, if you don't mind, I'd like to come to the school and read with you. ”he said.
After receiving permission from the boy's teacher, Alex Bakley, Cruse showed up at her classroom the following week. When he walked in, the boy shouted proudly, “Hey, that's my bus driver!”They went into a quiet corner and began reading together. Later, a second student wanted to read with him, then a third. All the kids went to the teacher asking, “Can I read with Mr. Herman?”
Cruse now volunteers to help kindergarten students with reading two days a week, and on a third day, he instructs the school's first-and second-graders. After dropping the kids off at school, of course. Every child looks up to Cruse, both on and off the school bus. “Herman is super positive and he's a bright light at our school who makes every child feel loved and heard. ”said Bakley.
For Cruse, what started out as a way to kill time has now developed into a way to make a difference in the heart of a child. He used to go to the gym or library after delivering students to schools. It wasn't until he offered to help the boy on the bus that he realized there was something more rewarding he could be doing. It's a joy for him to see the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words. He loves how reading opens up a new world for them.
54.What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 1? (1 word)
____________________________________________________________
55.Why did the boy on the bus look a little upset? (no more than 11 words)
____________________________________________________________
56.What help does Cruse offer after delivering students to schools? (no more than 12 words)
____________________________________________________________
57.Why does Cruse think his voluntary work is rewarding according to the last paragraph? (no more than 16 words)
____________________________________________________________
58.Who's “a bright light” in your life? Please explain in your own words. (no more than 20 words)
____________________________________________________________
【答案】54.Notice/Sense /Perceive. 55.(Because)his parents were too busy to read with him. 56.Helping kindergartners with reading and instructing the school's first-and second-graders. 57.(Because)the kids get excited when reading, which opens up a new world for them. 58.My father/mother. (Because)he/she encourages me and helps me (to)overcome the difficulties in my life.
【导语】文章主要讲述了幼儿园的校车司机Cruse帮助幼儿园的一位小男孩练习阅读的故事。
54.考查词义猜测。由文章第一段第二句“He believes bus drivers are the eyes and ears of students when they're away from home ”(他认为,当学生们远离家时,公交车司机是他们的眼睛和耳朵。)和文章第二段第一句“During one morning ride, Cruse noticed a kindergartner seemed a little sad. ”(在一次早上的驾驶途中,克鲁斯注意到一个幼儿园的孩子看起来有点悲伤。)可知,公交车司机要有感知和注意孩子们情绪的天赋。故答案为Notice/Sense /Perceive.
55.考查细节理解。由文章第二段第二句“the boy explained that he wasn't able to complete his reading assignment because his parents were busy with his four siblings(兄弟姐妹). ”(男孩解释说,他没能完成阅读作业,因为他的父母忙于照顾他的四个兄弟姐妹。)可知男孩的父母太忙了无法帮助他完成阅读作业。故填(Because)his parents were too busy to read with him.
56.考查细节理解。由文章第四段第一句“Cruse now volunteers to help kindergarten students with reading two days a week, and on a third day, he instructs the school's first-and second-graders. ”(Cruse现在自愿帮助幼儿园学生每周阅读两天,第三天,他指导学校的一年级和二年级学生。)可知Cruse帮助幼儿园和一年级、二年级的孩子阅读。故填Helping kindergartners with reading and instructing the school's first-and second-graders.
57.考查推理判断。由文章最后一个自然段最后两句“It's a joy for him to see the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words. He loves how reading opens up a new world for them.”(他很高兴看到孩子们在学习发音时变得兴奋起来。他喜欢阅读为他们打开一个新的世界。)可知Cruse觉得非常值得是因为阅读为孩子们打开了全新的世界。故填(Because)the kids get excited when reading, which opens up a new world for them.
58.开放性试题。由文章第四段第三句“Herman is super positive and he's a bright light at our school who makes every child feel loved and heard.”(赫尔曼非常积极,他是我们学校的一盏明灯,让每个孩子都感到被爱和被倾听。)可知bright light是能引导学生积极方向的人,让学生感受到爱和希望。所以,可以填写能引导自己积极向上的人。故填My father/mother. (Because) he/she encourages me and helps me (to) overcome the difficulties in my life.
命题解读

新角度:本题从人物形象塑造 + 情节细节理解 + 情感主旨升华 + 真实生活迁移的角度设题,五道题目覆盖阅读简答全考点。命题人通过设置字数限制、信息分散、开放设问等特点,强化对精准概括与规范表达的考查;从理解生词、定位细节,到归纳行为、分析情感,再到迁移生活、表达观点,全面考查 “读懂故事 — 读懂情感 — 表达自我” 的综合语言能力。这种设题角度突出了高考对 “信息提取 + 语言概括 + 价值表达” 的三重要求,体现 “以文育人、传递温暖与善意” 的命题思路。

(25-26高三上·天津西青·期末)阅读下列短文并回答问题。
Sophia had always been the best art student in her class. Her paintings were colorful and full of energy, and her teacher often praised her skill. So when the school announced an art competition with the theme “Connection,” everyone expected Sophia to win. However, for the first time, Sophia found herself staring at a blank sheet of paper, unsure of where to start.
Sophia found the word “connection” vague and difficult to explain. She tried drawing different ideas — a family holding hands, a busy marketplace — but none of them seemed to capture the deeper meaning she felt the theme required. “Is it just about people being together?” she wondered. “Or something more invisible, like feelings or memories?” Her classmates eagerly talked about their ideas, showing their early drawings and laughing as they worked. Sophia, however, felt stuck, and the pressure to meet everyone’s expectations only made things worse.
One afternoon, Sophia decided to take a walk in the park to relax. As she wandered, she noticed a young boy trying to fly a kite. The kite shook in the air before falling to the ground. The boy sighed but didn’t give up. He carefully adjusted the string, ran faster, and tried again. His face showed how determined he was as he focused on the kite. Finally, the kite rose high into the sky, and the boy’s face lit up with happiness. Watching him, Sophia stopped in her tracks. She suddenly felt inspired, as if the boy’s patience and determination had unlocked her own creativity.
She rushed home and began painting, showing the boy’s hard work, the kite’s bright colors, and the invisible connection between them. Her brush moved quickly, and her style was simple and direct, unlike her usual detailed work.
On the day of the competition, Sophia showed her painting. Some classmates whispered that it wasn’t her best work. Sophia felt unsure but stood by her piece. Though she didn’t win first place, she received a special award for “Most Creative Artwork.” As Sophia packed up her painting, she realized art wasn’t about being perfect — it was about showing what truly mattered.
1.What made Sophia stand out as an art student? (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________2.What does the underlined word “vague” mean in Paragraph 2? (no more than 3 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________3.What did Sophia see in the park that helped her with her painting? (no more than 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________4.What did Sophia learn about art at the end? (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________5.Do you think Sophia’s painting deserved the special award? Why or why not? (no more than 20 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】1.Her colorful, energetic paintings and praised skill. 2.Unclear. /Indistinct. /Confusing. /Hard to explain. /Not clearly defined. /Hard to understand. /Hard to explain. 3.A boy trying many times to fly a kite until he did it. 4.Art was about showing what matters, not being perfect. 5.Yes, it deserved the award for its creativity and unique “Connection” expression.
Or: No, it might not deserve it as it lacked her usual detailed skill.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Sophia在艺术比赛中从困惑到获得灵感,最终创作出展现真正重要事物的作品并赢得特别奖的故事。
1.考查细节理解。由文章第一段中“Her paintings were colorful and full of energy, and her teacher often praised her skill. (她的画色彩丰富,充满活力,老师经常表扬她的技巧。)”可知,Sophia色彩丰富、充满活力的画作和备受赞誉的技巧使她作为一名艺术生脱颖而出。故答案为:Her colorful, energetic paintings and praised skill.
2.考查词句猜测。由文章第二段中“Sophia found the word “connection” vague and difficult to explain. She tried drawing different ideas — a family holding hands, a busy marketplace — but none of them seemed to capture the deeper meaning she felt the theme required. (Sophia发现“connection”这个词很vague,很难解释。)”可知,Sophia觉得connection这个词很难解释,故推测vague表示“不清楚的,模糊的”。故答案为:Unclear. /Indistinct. /Confusing. /Hard to explain. /Not clearly defined. /Hard to understand. /Hard to explain.
3.考查细节理解。由文章第三段中“One afternoon, Sophia decided to take a walk in the park to relax. As she wandered, she noticed a young boy trying to fly a kite. (一天下午,Sophia决定去公园散步放松一下。当她四处游荡时,她注意到一个小男孩正在放风筝。)”和第四段中“She rushed home and began painting, showing the boy’s hard work, the kite’s bright colors, and the invisible connection between them. (她冲回家开始画画,画的是男孩的努力,风筝鲜艳的颜色,以及他们之间无形的联系。)”可知,Sophia在公园里看到一个小男孩多次尝试放风筝,直到成功,这帮助她完成了画作。故答案为:A boy trying many times to fly a kite until he did it.
4.考查细节理解。由文章最后一段中“As Sophia packed up her painting, she realized art wasn’t about being perfect — it was about showing what truly mattered. (当Sophia收拾她的画时,她意识到艺术不是关于完美,而是关于展示真正重要的东西。)”可知,Sophia最后明白了艺术是关于展示真正重要的东西,而不是完美。故答案为:Art was about showing what matters, not being perfect.
5.开放性题目,此题要求回答会:你认为Sophia的画配得上这个特别奖吗?为什么或为什么不呢?(不超过20字)答案不唯一,合理即可。例如:是的,它因其创造力和独特的“连接”表达而当之无愧。或者:不,这可能不值得,因为它缺乏她通常的细节技巧。参考答案为:Yes, it deserved the award for its creativity and unique “Connection” expression. Or: No, it might not deserve it as it lacked her usual detailed skill.

考点二 段落大意题
(2025年3月·天津卷)
In the small town where I grew up, graduating from high school was already a big thing. But I was driven to pursue my education and become a lawyer like my best friend’s dad, one of the few role models available. After completing my first degree at a university near my parents’ house, I started my graduate study of law at the University of North Carolina, as I had planned for the past 15 years.
It was my 23rd birthday, and I was celebrating it as I had for years: by watching the annual Perseid meteor shower (英仙座流星雨). But this year was different. I was away from the small town for the first time and was meeting people in fields that were new to me. My horizons had been opened up, and I began to question my life path. Should I stick to my long-standing plans? Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby?
Coincidentally, a solar eclipse (日食) helped me make the decision. I made a trip along the winding mountain roads and found a peaceful spot in a valley. When the Moon gradually slid in front of the Sun, the world around me became dark. The water was still, and the sunset surrounded me. That moment, I knew what I had to do. I dropped out of law school to pursue my passion.
Now, about to get my doctoral degree in astronomy, I realize that my exposure to the night sky gave me a great gift. It bestowed a broad view: In the vast universe, our individual desires and insecurities are insignificant. It liberated me from allowing worries or self-doubt to stand in the way of chasing new dreams.
During this year’s Perseid meteor shower, I’ll be presenting my research at an international conference in Cape Town. It will be my first trip out of the country. And the little girl inside me who watched the shooting stars from her parents? backyard can’t wait to watch the same stars flash across the South African sky.
56.Why did the author want to become a lawyer? (no more than 10 words)
57.How were the author’s horizons expanded? (no more than 15 words)
58.What decision did the author make after watching the solar eclipse? (no more than 10 words)
59.What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 4? (1 word)
60.What do you think is the key factor in choosing your college major? Please explain why. (no more than 20 words)
【答案】56.Because of her best friend's dad. 57.By being away from the small town and meeting new people. 58.To drop out of law school for astronomy. 59.Gave. 60.Interest. Because it can keep me motivated.
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者原本计划成为一名律师,在 23 岁生日观看英仙座流星雨时开始质疑自己的人生道路,后因一次日食决定放弃法学院的学习,转而追求天文学梦想,如今即将获得天文学博士学位的故事。
56.考查细节理解。根据文章第一段 “But I was driven to pursue my education and become a lawyer like my best friend’s dad, one of the few role models available. (但我被驱使着去追求学业,成为像我最好朋友的爸爸那样的律师,他是我为数不多的榜样之一)” 可知,作者想成为律师是因为她最好朋友的爸爸。故填Because of her best friend's dad.
57.考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“I was away from the small town for the first time and was meeting people in fields that were new to me. My horizons had been opened up (我第一次离开这个小镇,结识了一些我不熟悉领域的人。我的视野开阔了)” 可知,作者通过离开小镇并结识新人,开阔了视野。故填By being away from the small town and meeting new people.
58.考查细节理解。根据文章第三段 “That moment, I knew what I had to do. I dropped out of law school to pursue my passion.(在那一刻,我知道我必须做什么。我从法学院退学去追求我的热爱)” 以及前文提到作者对天文学的热爱可知,作者观看日食后决定从法学院退学转而学习天文学。故填To drop out of law school for astronomy.
59.考查词义猜测。根据文章第四段“Now, about to get my doctoral degree in astronomy, I realize that my exposure to the night sky gave me a great gift. It bestowed a broad view(现在,即将获得天文学博士学位的我意识到,对夜空的接触给了我一份很棒的礼物。它bestowed一种广阔的视野)”,结合语境及前文 gave可知,bestowed 意为 “给予”,与gave同义。故填Gave.
60.本题为开放性问题,询问选择大学专业的关键因素及原因。示例答案为兴趣,因为兴趣能让人保持动力。故填Interest. Because it can keep me motivated.

Samantha, my childhood playmate living in Florida, had to deal with some complex problems in her life. Her mother recognized the difficulty she was having and understood that things would be much better if I could come and visit and spend a couple of days helping her sort things out. So her mother purchased the tickets for me to fly down and see her.
I flew out from Boston in a thunderstorm and it was rainy and thundering most of the way to Charlotte, North Carolina. When I arrived in Charlotte, the flight had been delayed so much that there were no additional flights going out for the rest of the night. I became very grieved and burst into tears.
It only took a minute or two before I felt an arm being put around my shoulders from behind. It was a woman that I had flown into Charlotte on the same flight with and she said, “Don’t worry, young girl. You’re with us now.”
I cried harder when she said that, because I immediately felt less alone. Deb and Mark were heading to Orlando with their two teenage daughters. We all sat down and started chatting. They treated me immediately as though I was a family member. During the night, I curled up (蜷作一团) with my bag and slept while this family watched over me.
In the morning, we were informed that there was a flight to Orlando. That flight had four seats, enough for Deb, Mark, and their daughters. But Deb and Mark declared that they would not be taking that flight to Orlando because I was part of their family for the day, and they weren’t going to leave part of their family behind.
We flew into Tampa, on the west coast of Florida, and Deb and Mark rented a car and drove to Orlando. My friend’s mother was waiting for me in Orlando when we arrived. When I left the family, there were tears, a lot of hugs, and promises to stay in touch. This family was an inspiration to me, and they remain so every day.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲的是作者在暴风雨天气中前往佛罗里达帮助童年伙伴的旅途经历,飞机因天气原因延误后,作者遇到了善良的Deb和Mark一家,这家人不仅给了作者家人般的关怀,更是主动放弃直达航班选择陪同作者共同前往目的地的故事。
1.考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中“Her mother recognized the difficulty she was having and understood that things would be much better if I could come and visit and spend a couple of days helping her sort things out.(她的母亲意识到了她的困难,她明白,如果我能去看望她,花几天时间帮她解决问题,情况会好得多)”可知,作者儿时的玩伴萨曼莎生活中有一些复杂的问题,所以萨曼莎妈妈希望我能去帮助她解决问题,所以作者旅行的目的是去看望(帮助)有困难的朋友,故答案为To visit/help her friend who was in difficulty。
2.考查词句猜测。根据文章第二段划线词之前“When I arrived in Charlotte, the flight had been delayed so much that there were no additional flights going out for the rest of the night. I became (当我到达Charlotte的时候,航班已经延误了很多,以至于当晚剩下的时间里都没有额外的航班了。我变得)”以及之后“and burst into tears.(并且大哭起来)”可知,因为天气原因我没有赶上既定的航班,并且当晚也没有额外的航班了,由此可推测作者心情一定非常难过,所以划线词的意思为Sad/Upset,故答案为Sad/Upset。
3.考查细节理解。根据文章第四段中“Deb and Mark were heading to Orlando with their two teenage daughters. We all sat down and started chatting. They treated me immediately as though I was a family member. During the night, I curled up (蜷作一团) with my bag and slept while this family watched over me.(Deb和Mark带着两个十几岁的女儿前往奥兰多。我们都坐下来开始聊天。他们立刻把我当作家人对待。晚上,我抱着包蜷缩在床上睡觉,这一家人看着我)”可知,作者感到好多了的原因是因为在机场好心的一家把作者当成家人看待,故答案为A kind family that treated her as a family member。
4.考查细节理解。根据文章倒数第二段“That flight had four seats, enough for Deb, Mark, and their daughters. But Deb and Mark declared that they would not be taking that flight to Orlando because I was part of their family for the day, and they weren’t going to leave part of their family behind.(那架飞机有四个座位,足够Deb, Mark和他们的女儿坐。但是Deb和Mark宣布他们不会乘坐那趟飞往奥兰多的航班,因为那天我是他们家的一员,他们不会丢下他们家的一员)”可知,这对夫妇放弃飞往目的地航班的原因是因为他们想陪伴作者,故答案为Because they wanted to stay with the author。
5.开放性题目。这对夫妇将陌生人视为家人,甚至牺牲行程,体现了关怀与体贴。故答案为:Caring and Considerate. They regarded the author as a family member and gave up their direct flight for the author.
(2025·天津滨海新·三模)阅读表达
For seven months, the dark-haired violinist at the 34th Street subway station had been just part of my morning background noise. His precise Vivaldi performances blended with train announcements and clicking heels as I rushed to my accounting job, occasionally dropping change but never exchanging words.
The morning when everything changed began ordinarily enough — another rainy March day, another hurried commute. As I mechanically dropped a dollar into his open case, his bow suddenly stilled. “Excuse me,” he said with a mild Eastern European accent. “Your right shoelace…”
I glanced down to see the lace untied and covered in mud. When I bent down to retie it, the musician knelt beside me, his violin momentarily forgotten. “Dangcrous in crowds,” he remarked, demonstrating a double-knot technique. In that awkward position, I finally noticed the Budapest Academy of Music pin (别针) fastened inside his instrument case.
“Thank you...?” I hesitated, realizing I’d never learned his name.
“László,” he supplied, then surprised me by asking, “You always walk so fast. To where?” That simple question revamped my routine. As trains came and went, we talked — about his transition from concert halls to subway platforms after moving to America, about my grandmother’s Hungarian (匈牙利的) heritage. When he played “Szomorú Vasárnap” in recognition of our shared roots, the familiar melody stopped me mid-step. I was thrilled by the break from my dull routine.
Now my commute includes scheduled pauses. On Mondays, I bring László fresh violin strings from the music store near my office. On Thursdays, he brings me a copy of the Hungarian newspaper he reads. What began as a shoelace warning has grown into something remarkable — proof that beneath the mechanical rush of city life, human connections still flourish in the unlikeliest places.
Sometimes, when latecomers rush past our conversations, I see my former self in their hurried steps. They don’t know what they’re missing — the subway’s best musician won’t call after them about untied laces. That privilege belongs only to those who finally stop moving long enough to listen.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述作者以前在地铁站路过一位小提琴手时都是放下零钱,从不交谈,有一次那位小提琴手提醒作者鞋带松了,之后两人开始交谈,这也改变了作者的习惯,并和小提琴手建立了友谊。
6.考查细节理解。根据第一段中“His precise Vivaldi performances blended with train announcements and clicking heels as I rushed to my accounting job, occasionally dropping change but never exchanging words.(他精确的Vivaldi表演与火车广播和我赶去会计工作时发出的咔哒声混在一起,我偶尔会掉零钱,但从不说话)”可知,作者以前经过那位小提琴手时放下零钱,但从未说过一句话,故答案是The author dropped change but never exchanged words/ said anything.

9.考查主旨大意。根据第六段“Now my commute includes scheduled pauses. On Mondays, I bring László fresh violin strings from the music store near my office. On Thursdays, he brings me a copy of the Hungarian newspaper he reads. What began as a shoelace warning has grown into something remarkable — proof that beneath the mechanical rush of city life, human connections still flourish in the unlikeliest places.(现在我的通勤包括了安排好的休息。每周一,我从办公室附近的乐器店买László新鲜的小提琴弦。每周四,他都会给我带来一份他读的匈牙利报纸。最初的鞋带警告已经发展成为一件了不起的事情——证明在城市生活的机械匆忙之下,人与人之间的联系仍然在最不可能的地方蓬勃发展)”可知,本段主要讲述作者的日常生活发生了变化,与László建立了友谊,故答案为They developed friendship. Or: They had more connections after the accidental meeting. Or: The author’s routine changed, leading to meaningful connections with László.
10.考查开放题型。本题是开放题型,答案合理即可。根据全文内容,结合倒数第二段中“What began as a shoelace warning has grown into something remarkable — proof that beneath the mechanical rush of city life, human connections still flourish in the unlikeliest places.(最初的鞋带警告已经发展成为一件了不起的事情——证明在城市生活的机械匆忙之下,人与人之间的联系仍然在最不可能的地方蓬勃发展)”和最后一段“Sometimes, when latecomers rush past our conversations, I see my former self in their hurried steps.

考点三 细节理解题
(2024·天津·高考真题)
Studies show teaching children how to cook at an early age helps with reading comprehension and fine motor ability, in addition to learning about nutrition and food safety. In 2015 Stephanie Drewry was looking for a cooking summer camp for her three children. To her dismay, she quickly realized such a camp didn’t exist.
“I have my degree in education, but I had been staying home with my kids, ” Drewry says. “I love working with kids, so I just decided to take a spare bedroom and turn it into a one-room cooking school called Sprouts Cooking School. ”
The school grew in popularity so quickly that Drewry realized she would need more space outside her home for the classes. In 2017 she moved Sprouts into a 1,400-square-foot storefront (临街店面) in Carmel, Indiana. As demand grew, Drewry opened another Sprouts in the same area in 2022.
“Our classrooms are built with kids in mind. The worktops (操作台) in the classrooms are slightly lower than normal to fit in with their height,” Drewry says. “All of the cooking facilities are domestic ones. I wanted to have them feel like cooking in their own home.”
The school offers activities targeted at kids aged 3 to 13. Younger kids might make cookies while older ones are cooking soup and meatballs. There are birthday parties and summer camps as well. The fun part of the activities is that the kids can eat or take home whatever they make. They can also enjoy themselves in the themed classes like Harry Potter or Winter Wonder-land Baking. With all these activities, the school is extremely popular.
Teaching kids, especially those picky eaters, to cook helps a lot because they’re more willing to eat something made by themselves. More importantly, it is also about releasing children into the world with a life skill they’ll need as an adult when they’re no longer in their parents’ care.

4.Why is the school so popular according to Paragraph 5? (no more than10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________________

2.考查细节理解。根据第三段“The school grew in popularity so quickly that Drewry realized she would need more space outside her home for the classes.(这所学校受欢迎的速度如此之快,以至于德鲁里意识到她需要在家外面有更多的地方来上课)”可知,Drewry的学校大受欢迎,所以需要更大的办学空间。故答案为Because of its growing popularity and need for more space.

Or: The worktops are slightly lower than normal.
4.考查细节理解。根据第五段“The school offers activities targeted at kids aged 3 to 13. Younger kids might make cookies while older ones are cooking soup and meatballs.

The Wonders of Urban Gardening
Urban gardening has been on the rise in recent years, and it’s not just a passing trend. In the concrete jungles of big cities, people are discovering the joy and benefits of growing their own plants right in their backyards, roofs, or even small balconies.
Take my neighbor, Mr. Smith, for example. He used to have a small, barren patch of land in his backyard. A couple of years ago, he decided to turn it into a mini-garden. He started with some easy-to-grow vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. At first, it was a bit of a struggle. The soil wasn’t in the best condition, and he had to learn how to deal with pests without using harmful chemicals. But as time went by, his garden flourished. Now, his backyard is a vibrant oasis filled with green leaves and colorful blossoms. He not only has fresh, organic produce for his family but also shares the surplus with neighbors.
Urban gardening also has a significant environmental impact. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving the air quality in the city. Gardens can help reduce the urban heat island effect by providing shade and evaporative cooling. Additionally, by growing their own food, people can cut down on the carbon emissions associated with transporting food from farms to cities.
For many city dwellers, urban gardening is also a great way to relieve stress. Spending time in the garden, digging in the soil, and watching plants grow can be incredibly therapeutic. It allows people to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and connect with nature. Moreover, it can be a fun family activity. Children can learn about where food comes from, the life cycle of plants, and the importance of taking care of the environment.
However, urban gardening does face some challenges. Space is often limited, so gardeners need to be creative in using vertical gardening techniques or small-scale containers. Also, dealing with limited sunlight in some urban areas and ensuring proper water supply can be tricky. But with a bit of knowledge and perseverance, these obstacles can be overcome.
1.How did Mr. Smith’s backyard change? (10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
2.What environmental benefits does urban gardening bring? (List two, 15 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
3.Why is urban gardening good for relieving stress? (10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
4.What does the underlined word “barren” mean? (One word)
______________________________________________________________________________
5.If you lived in a city, would you like to try urban gardening? Why? (No more than 20 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】1.It turns into a vibrant garden. 2.It improves urban air quality; it reduces urban heat. 3.Because it’s therapeutic and connects people with nature. 4.Infertile/Unproductive. 5.Yes, for fresh, organic food and stress relief.
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了城市园艺近年兴起,不仅能提供新鲜有机食物、改善城市环境,还能帮助都市人减压并促进家庭互动,但也面临空间限制等挑战。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Now, his backyard is a vibrant oasis filled with green leaves and colorful blossoms. (如今,他的后院已成为一片生机盎然的绿洲,处处可见青翠的枝叶与缤纷的花朵)”可知,史密斯先生的后院变成了生机勃勃的花园。故答案为:It turns into a vibrant garden.
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving the air quality in the city. Gardens can help reduce the urban heat island effect by providing shade and evaporative cooling. Additionally, by growing their own food, people can cut down on the carbon emissions associated with transporting food from farms to cities. (植物通过吸收二氧化碳并释放氧气来改善城市空气质量。城市花园还能通过提供荫蔽和蒸发降温效应,有效缓解城市热岛现象。此外,居民自种蔬果可以减少从农场到城市的食物运输所产生的碳排放)”可知,城市园艺可以改善城市空气质量,减少城市热量,减少食物运输中的碳排放,任选两点理由即可。故答案为:It improves urban air quality; it reduces urban heat.
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Spending time in the garden, digging in the soil, and watching plants grow can be incredibly therapeutic. It allows people to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and connect with nature. (在花园里劳作、松土、观察植物生长,具有极佳的治疗效果。这种活动能让人暂时远离都市喧嚣,重新与自然建立联结)”可知,城市园艺有治疗作用,把人与自然联系起来,因此有利于缓解压力。故答案为:Because it’s therapeutic and connects people with nature.
4.词句猜测题。根据第二段中画线词的下文“At first, it was a bit of a struggle. The soil wasn’t in the best condition (起初,这并非易事。土壤状况并不理想)”可知,史密斯先生后院的土壤状况不好,土地一开始是贫瘠的,画线词意为“贫瘠的”。故答案为:Infertile/Unproductive.
5.开放性试题。本题结合文章内容和生活实际言之有理即可。例如,根据第二段中“He not only has fresh, organic produce for his family but also shares the surplus with neighbors. (他不仅能为家人提供新鲜有机的农产品,还能将富余的收成与邻居分享)”和第四段中“For many city dwellers, urban gardening is also a great way to relieve stress. (对许多城市居民来说,都市园艺也是缓解压力的绝佳方式)”可知,城市园艺可以让人收获新鲜、有机的食物,并且缓解压力,值得尝试。故答案为:Yes, for fresh, organic food and stress relief.
(2025·天津宝坻·二模)阅读短文, 并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My friend Peggy and I had both been to Paris before, but always signed up for a tour group, seeing all the usual tourist sites and hearing the same tour guide recitations. This would be the first time to visit it on our Jack Jones, free to god anywhere and try anything.
On previous trips, we hadn’t made any real contact with the people of that city. This time we’d make it. One evening, we found a tiny cafe known only to the locals, and went inside. We were greeted by the owner, whose smile gradually disappeared when he discovered Peggy and I were not French and bad a very limited command of French. Neither could he speak any English, so he retreated to the kitchen. Moments later, a young woman led us to our seats at the other end of a table already occupied by an elderly couple. She gave us two menus, but unfortunately, there was no picture attached to each dish.
For a few minutes, we struggled to recall a few French words, but discovered that the descriptions of each dish were too hard for us. Our table mates noticed our difficulty. The old man began explaining each dish, one at a time. Since he spoked very little English, his translations took the form of gestures and animal sounds. For example, for the beef dish, he pretended that his hands were horns on both sides of his head, accompanied by a cow’s sound.
When the young waitress returned, we placed our order and our new friends gave her instructions on how to prepare the food. Despite our limited ability to speak French, we continued our lively conversation throughout the meal. We talked about the beauty of Paris, our lives and our families. Near the end of the evening, a flower seller made her way through the cafe. We watched the old gentleman purchase a bunch of flowers. Artfully, he picked up two roses from the bunch, presented them to his lady, and gave her a kiss. Then, bowing smartly in our direction, he held out those two roses, one for each of us.
We found our Paris. And we’ll never forget that evening in Paris.
6.What does the underlined part in paragraph 1 probably mean?(no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________7.Why did the cafe owner’s smile gradually disappear?(no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________8.Why did the old man make animal sounds?(no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________9.How was that evening the author and Peggy spent with their new friends?(no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________10.What impression do you think the author might have on Paris after the experience in the cafe?(no more than 20 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】6.Visit it alone. /Visit it on our own. / Visit it without being accompanied. 7.Because he found it difficult to communicate with the guests. 8.To more vividly explain dishes to the author and Peggy. 9.It was fantastic and unforgettable. 10.Her impression may be that Paris has not only beautiful scenery but also has very kind, friendly citizens.
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者和朋友Peggy以前去巴黎都是跟团游,但这次是自由行,他们想自由探索。他们去了一家当地小咖啡馆,店主不会英语,他们法语也不好。一对老夫妇帮助他们点餐,通过手势和动物声音解释菜品。最后,老人送给他们玫瑰花,他们度过了一个难忘的夜晚。
6.考查词句猜测。根据第一段“My friend Peggy and I had both been to Paris before, but always signed up for a tour group, seeing all the usual tourist sites and hearing the same tour guide recitations. This would be the first time to visit it on our Jack Jones, free to god anywhere and try anything.(我和我的朋友佩吉以前都去过巴黎,但总是报名参加旅行团,参观所有常见的旅游景点,听同样的导游讲解。这将是第一次visit it on our Jack Jones,在任何地方都可以自由地尝试任何事情。)”可知,作者和朋友这次旅行没有跟团,而是独自游览。visit it on our Jack Jones意为“独自地参观游览”。故答案为Visit it alone. / Visit it on our own.
7.考查细节理解。根据第二段“We were greeted by the owner, whose smile gradually disappeared when he discovered Peggy and I were not French and bad a very limited command of French. Neither could he speak any English, so he retreated to the kitchen.(我们受到了店主的欢迎,当他发现佩吉和我不是法国人,而且法语掌握得非常有限时,他的笑容逐渐消失了。他也不会说英语,所以他退到厨房。)”可知,老板发现顾客法语不好且自己不会说英语,和他们沟通困难。故答案为 Because he found it hard to communicate with them.
8.考查细节理解。根据第三段“Since he spoked very little English, his translations took the form of gestures and animal sounds.(由于他很少说英语,他的翻译采用了手势和动物声音的形式。)”可知,老人因语言不通,借助手势和声音是为了生动地解释菜品。故答案为 To explain dishes to them vividly due to language barrier.
9.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“Then, bowing smartly in our direction, he held out those two roses, one for each of us.(然后,他朝我们的方向潇洒地鞠了一躬,拿出那两朵玫瑰,我们每人一朵。)”和最后一段“And we’ll never forget that evening in Paris.”可知,这个夜晚美妙且难忘。故答案为 Fantastic and unforgettable.
10.考查阅读表达。通读全文并结合文中既提到“the beauty of Paris”,又通过老年夫妇的热心帮助展现了当地人的友善与热情。作者的印象应涵盖风景与人文两方面,她可能认为巴黎不仅美丽,而且到处是善良友好的人民。故答案为 She may think Paris is not only beautiful but also full of kind and friendly people.
考点四 开放性试题
(2024·天津·高考真题)阅读表达
Awake from a short sleep in her chair, my grandmother ran her fingers through her wavy white hair, looked out her window at the blue sky, and asked me what I would wish for if I had just one wish.
She often asks this, and I always answer the same way—“To have Granddad back” —which usually gets her reminiscing about him. Memories of their 67-year life together would always make her smile.
My grandmother was born in Ireland. In her teens, she moved to a poor village in England. At 28, my grandmother walked herself through the snow to birth her first child. When she was 50, she survived an emergency surgery. In her 60s, she suffered from arthritis(关节炎)but still managed to climb Snowdon, Wales’s tallest peak.
About a decade ago, I noticed that she began to lose her hearing. If I asked what she had for lunch, she might say, “Oh, the weather has been lovely today. ” She seemed to recycle the same handful of answers to my questions.
In recent years, I’ve been trying to show up for her more, in person. One day after I made us coffee, I asked her: “What’s the secret to being successful in your 90s? ”
“Oh Richard, so many people are old at 60. They just want to sit all day. You won’t make it to 90 like that. You have to try. ”
“Try what? ”
“Try walking, ” she said. “Try gardening. Try cooking. Trying doesn’t require a lot of trying. Just try a little . Like, with this coffee you’ve made us. I know you tried . ”
Even at 93, my grandmother still knits blankets for the local hospital’s babies and buys books to continue with her French. “Age is just another bot- her attempting to convince you of the impossible in the world, but actually the world is filled with possibilities,” she once said.
1.What does the underlined phrase mean in Paragraph 2? (no more than 2 words)
______________________________________________________________________________________
2.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? (no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________________
3.Why did the author’s grandmother recycle the same answers to his questions? (no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________________
4.How can people be successful in old age according to the author’s grandmother? (no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________________
5.In your opinion, what can young people do to improve the quality of old people’s life? (no more than 20 words)
______________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】1.Remembering./Thinking of. /Thinking about. /Missing. 2.My grandmother has/ had a rich life experience./My grandmother has gone through a lot. /My grandmother is/was an extraordinary woman. 3.Because she began to lose her hearing. /Because she could not hear clearly. 4.They should remain active in old age./By trying different things. /They should try doing things. 5.We can help old people to learn new skills so that they can keep pace with society./They can visit their grandparents more often and spend time with them.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者与祖母之间的日常交流,重点描绘了祖母积极向上、勇于尝试的生活态度,并表达了年龄不是限制、世界充满可能性的主旨。
1.考查词义猜测。根据第二段划线词前面的内容“She often asks this, and I always answer the same way—“To have Granddad back” (她经常问我这个问题,我总是这样回答——“为了让爷爷回来。”)”以及划线词后的内容“Memories of their 67-year life together would always make her smile.(他们67年的共同生活总是让她微笑。)”可知,作者总是以同样的方式来回答:让爷爷回来,一提到这就会让奶奶想起了和爷爷在一起的时光,这些时光总是让奶奶微笑。故划线词意为“想起,记起来,想念”。故答案为Remembering./Thinking of./ Thinking about. /Missing.
2.考查主旨大意。根据第三段中“My grandmother was born in Ireland. In her teens, she moved to a poor village in England. At 28, my grandmother walked herself through the snow to birth her first child. When she was 50, she survived an emergency surgery. In her 60s, she suffered from arthritis(关节炎)but still managed to climb Snowdon, Wales’s tallest peak.(我祖母出生在爱尔兰。在她十几岁的时候,她搬到了英国的一个贫穷的村庄。28岁时,我的祖母在雪地里步行生下了她的第一个孩子。50岁时,她在一次紧急手术中幸存下来。60多岁时,她饱受关节炎之苦,但仍成功攀登了威尔士最高峰斯诺登峰。)”可知,本段主要介绍了奶奶的生活经历描述了奶奶具有丰富的人生经历,她是一位非凡的女性。故答案为My grandmother has/had a rich life experience./My grandmother has gone through a lot./My grandmother is/was an extraordinary woman.
3.考查细节理解。根据第四段中“About a decade ago, I noticed that she began to lose her hearing. If I asked what she had for lunch, she might say, “Oh, the weather has been lovely today. ”(大约十年前,我注意到她的听力开始下降。如果我问她午餐吃了什么,她可能会说:“哦,今天天气真好。”)”可知,作者注意到祖母十年前开始失去听力,所以当作者问她午饭吃了什么时,她可能会说“哦,今天天气真好。”,这说明她无法听清作者的问题,因此会用同样的几个答案来回答作者的问题。故答案为Because she began to lose her hearing./Because she could not hear clearly.
4.考查细节理解。根据第六段中““Oh Richard, so many people are old at 60. They just want to sit all day. You won’t make it to 90 like that. You have to try. ”(“哦,Richard,很多人60岁就老了。他们只想整天坐着。你这样活不到90岁的。你必须尝试。”)”以及第八段““Try walking, ” she said. “Try gardening. Try cooking. Trying doesn’t require a lot of trying. Just try a little . Like, with this coffee you’ve made us. I know you tried . ”(“试试走路,”她说。“试试园艺。试着做饭。尝试并不需要很多尝试。就尝一点。比如,你给我们煮的咖啡。我知道你尽力了。”)”可知,作者祖母认为人要想在老年时成功,就要不断尝试。故答案为They should remain active in old age./By trying different things./ They should try doing things.
5.开放性试题。本题为开放性试题,回答合理即可。根据问题内容“In your opinion, what can young people do to improve the quality of old people’s life? (在你看来,年轻人能做些什么来提高老年人的生活质量?)”可知,本人认为:我们可以帮助老年人学习新的技能,使他们能够跟上社会的步伐。或者他们可以更经常地看望他们的祖父母,花时间和他们在一起。故答案为We can help old people to learn new skills so that they can keep pace with society./They can visit their grandparents more often and spend time with them.
命题解读
新情境:本题选取93 岁祖母的乐观人生与亲情陪伴的温情成长情境作为命题载体,区别于传统阅读简答的普通人物故事或抽象话题。该情境贴合高考英语 “弘扬亲情孝道、传递生命正能量、引导价值思考” 的命题趋势,将阅读简答考查与高龄生活态度、亲情陪伴、终身成长等现实话题结合,要求考生在理解祖母坚韧乐观的人生态度基础上精准提取并概括信息,体现语言学习与人文关怀、生命教育的深度融合,符合高考 “在真实温情语境中考查语言运用与思维能力” 的改革方向。
新考法:本题采用词义猜测 + 段落主旨 + 细节原因 + 观点概括 + 开放表达的综合考法,打破了单纯信息摘抄的浅层考查模式。各题均有严格字数限制,要求考生在定位原文信息的基础上进行同义转换、句式精简与逻辑概括,而非机械照搬原句。这种考法侧重考查考生的信息筛选能力、语言转换能力与规范表达能力,契合高考阅读简答 “重简洁、重准确、重逻辑” 的命题改革方向。
新角度:本题从亲情互动 — 人生经历 — 衰老变化 — 生活智慧 — 价值升华的记叙文结构角度设题,五道题目由基础到开放、层层递进。命题人通过设置字数限制、信息跨段、细节转述、生活迁移等特点,强化对精准概括与规范表达的考查;从理解短语、归纳段意,到分析原因、提炼观点,再到结合自身表达观点,全面考查 “读懂故事 — 读懂情感 — 表达自我” 的综合语言能力。这种设题角度突出了高考对 “信息提取 + 语言概括 + 价值思辨” 的三重要求,体现 “以文育人、传递乐观坚韧与亲情温暖” 的命题思路。

(2025·天津宝坻·二模)阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
When Tom transferred from his rural middle school to a bustling city high school, he faced a crushing academic gap. Raised in a village where math lessons focused on basic addition and subtraction, Tom felt utterly unprepared for the city school’s rigorous curriculum. Algebra equations and geometric theorems seemed like a foreign language. His first math test — a humiliating 42/100 — left him paralyzed with shame. “I’ll never catch up,” he thought, feeling overwhelmed and avoiding eye contact with classmates who scored effortlessly in the 90s.
Ms. Liu, a patient and observant math teacher, recognized Tom’s silent struggle. After class, she handed him a neatly printed practice sheet. “Let’s tackle this step by step,” she said. For the next three months, Ms. Liu dedicated two afternoons weekly to one-on-one tutoring. She broke complex problems into visual diagrams, comparing algebraic variables to “missing puzzle pieces” and geometric angles to “folded paper edges.” To help him memorize formulas, she created catchy mnemonics (助记符,顺口溜), like “All Students Take Coffee” for trigonometric (三角函数) ratios. Additionally, she invited Tom to join her after-school study group, where peers shared problem-solving shortcuts in a judgment-free zone.
Tom’s determination matched his teacher’s effort. He transformed every spare moment into a learning opportunity: reviewing flashcards during his hour-long bus commute, solving practice problems during lunch breaks, and rewriting notes until his hands cramped. Each evening, he emailed Ms. Liu his homework drafts, and she responded with detailed corrections by dawn. Progress was painfully slow—his next test climbed to 65, then 78 — but Tom clung to Ms. Liu’s mantra: “Small steps still move mountains.”
The turning point arrived when Ms. Liu surprised him with an application for the Regional Math Olympiad. “You’re ready,” she insisted, though Tom doubted himself. For weeks, he drilled past competition papers, often working past midnight. On the day of the event, his palms sweat as he faced the first algebra problem, but Ms. Liu’s voice echoed in his mind: “Focus on what you know.” When results were announced, Tom’s name appeared under “Honorable Mentions” — an achievement he’d never imagined possible.
At the award ceremony, Tom clutched (紧握,抱紧) his certificate, tears blurring the stage lights. “Ms. Liu didn’t just teach me math,” he told the crowd, his voice trembling. “She showed me that failure is just the first draft of success.” The applause from classmates and teachers cemented a truth Tom now embraced: perseverance could bridge even the widest gaps.
1.What was Tom’s biggest problem after transferring to the city high school? (No more than 8 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________________

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Tom 从乡村中学转学到城市高中时数学成绩落后,在刘老师的帮助和自己的努力下,最终在地区数学奥林匹克中获得荣誉奖。
1.考查细节理解。根据第一段“When Tom transferred from his rural middle school to a bustling city high school, he faced a crushing academic gap.(当汤姆从乡村中学转学到一座繁华的城市高中时,他面临着巨大的学业差距)”可知,汤姆转学到市立高中后最大的问题是巨大的学业差距。故答案为A crushing academic gap.
2.考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“His first math test — a humiliating 42/100 — left him paralyzed with shame. “I’ll never catch up,” he thought(他的第一次数学考试成绩惨不忍睹——仅得 42 分(满分 100 分),这让他羞愧得无法言语。他心想:“我永远也赶不上了。”)”可知,汤姆因为成绩差感到挫败。故划线词意思是“感到挫败”。故答案为Feeling defeated.
3.考查细节理解。根据第二段“For the next three months, Ms. Liu dedicated two afternoons weekly to one-on-one tutoring.(接下来的三个月里,刘老师每周会抽出两个下午的时间对他进行一对一辅导)”以及“Additionally, she invited Tom to join her after-school study group, where peers shared problem-solving shortcuts in a judgment-free zone.(此外,她还邀请汤姆加入她的课外学习小组,在那里同学们可以在一个没有评判的环境中分享解题技巧)”可知,刘女士帮助汤姆提高数学能力的两种具体方法是一对一辅导和参加学习小组。故答案为One-on-one tutoring; study group participation.
4.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“For weeks, he drilled past competition papers, often working past midnight. On the day of the event, his palms sweat as he faced the first algebra problem, but Ms. Liu’s voice echoed in his mind: “Focus on what you know.” When results were announced, Tom’s name appeared under “Honorable Mentions” — an achievement he’d never imagined possible.(几周来,他一直练习超出竞赛范围的试卷,常常学习到深夜。在比赛当天,当他面对第一个代数问题时,手心直冒汗,但刘老师的声音在他脑海中回响:“专注于你所掌握的知识。”当结果公布时,汤姆的名字出现在“荣誉提名”那一栏——这是一个他从未想过能够取得的成就)”以及最后一段“The applause from classmates and teachers cemented a truth Tom now embraced: perseverance could bridge even the widest gaps.(他的声音因激动而颤抖。同学们和老师们发出的掌声证实了汤姆现在所坚信的一个真理:坚持不懈能够弥合哪怕是最巨大的鸿沟)”可知,汤姆参加数学竞赛这件事说明他克服了自我怀疑,并证明了坚持不懈就能取得成功。故答案为He overcame self-doubt and proved perseverance leads to success.
5.考查开放题。根据“从这个故事中,学生们能学到什么教训呢?”可回答:坚持不懈和悉心指导能够填补差距,因为失败是成功的最初草稿。故答案为Perseverance and guidance can bridge gaps, as failure is success’s first draft.
(2025·天津南开·三模)阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova—not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score (乐谱)so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to come off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage. “My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
6.What does Robert Titterton do in his spare time?(no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________________
7.How does Mr Titterton help the pianist as a page turner?(no more than 12 words)
___________________________________________________________________________________
8.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3 and 4?(no more than 15 words)
___________________________________________________________________________________
9.How do you understand the underlined phrase?(no more than 2 words)
___________________________________________________________________________________
10.What do you think of Ms Raspopova’s husband from the passage? Please explain it in your own words.(no more than 25 words)
___________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】6.He works as a page turner for pianists. 7.He sits beside the pianist and turns the pages of the score. 8.A lot of skills and practice are needed to be a page turner. 9.Detach/Drop off。 10.He is not good at page turning because he focuses too much on the music.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了翻谱员Robert Titterton的工作与经历。
6.考查细节理解。根据第一段中“In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova—not as a musician but as her page turner.(不过,在业余时间,他会登上舞台,站在钢琴家玛丽亚・拉斯波波娃身旁——不是以音乐家的身份,而是作为她的乐谱翻页员)”可知,Robert Titterton在业余时间会作为翻谱员与钢琴家Maria Raspopova一起上台。故答案为He works as a page turner for pianists.
7.考查细节理解。根据第二段中“His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score(乐谱)so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves.(他的工作是坐在钢琴家身旁翻动乐谱,这样音乐家就不必自己翻页而打断演奏的流畅性)”可知,Titterton先生作为翻谱员,他的工作是坐在钢琴家旁边翻乐谱,这样音乐家就不必自己翻页而打断音乐的流畅性。故答案为He sits beside the pianist and turns the pages of the score.
8.考查段落大意。根据第三段““A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.(Titterton先生解释道:“这份工作需要很多技巧。你必须确保不要一次翻两页,还要确保在音乐需要重复时能回到正确的位置找到重复段落。”)”和第四段的“Being a page turner requires plenty of practice.(成为一名翻页者需要大量的练习)”可知,这两段主要讲述了翻谱员需要具备的技能和需要的大量练习,这些都是为了确保音乐表演的顺利进行。故答案为A lot of skills and practice are needed to be a page turner.
9.考查短语理解(词句猜测)。根据第五段的“I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages(我当时正在翻页,为下一页做准备,但翻页时产生的气流导致备用的乐谱页)”可知,Titterton在翻页时,气流导致备用乐谱从谱架上掉落。所以“come off”在此表示 “脱离、脱落”,与 detach或drop off含义相近。故答案为Detach/Drop off。
10.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中““My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’”(她笑着说:“我丈夫是最糟糕的乐谱翻页员。他太沉迷于音乐了,感受着每个音符,所以我不得不一直喊‘翻页,翻页!’”)”可知,Raspopova女士认为她的丈夫是最差的翻谱员,因为他太专注于音乐,感觉每一个音符,需要她不断提醒他翻页。这说明她丈夫因过于沉浸音乐而不擅长翻谱。故答案为He is not good at page turning because he focuses too much on the music.

03 破·考点攻坚
阅读表达题型概述
记叙文是阅读表达考查频率最高的文章类型,少见说明文和议论文。
难度设定方面,记叙文往往属于中等难度,可读性强,容易总体把握。长难句偶尔出现,比说明文、议论文少。
内容方面,阅读表达记叙文的内容往往比较套路。写事件= 歌颂真善美或抒发积极的情感;写人= 刻画正面积极的人物形象或表达对人物的积极情感。
行文结构方面,现在高考记叙文大多都属于夹叙夹议型,可能先叙后议、先议后叙,也有可能边叙边议。这类文章需要结合记叙文和议论文两种文体的特点理解、分析。
从文章的话题方面,记叙文分为写事记叙文和写人记叙文。两类文章的行文结构、话题侧重点、主旨以及事件数量都有较为明显的区别。
二、话题、主旨策略
记叙文中,话题在开头引出,主旨在结尾点明。
例 1
话题开头:My first travel abroad
主旨:Traveling abroad for the first time taught me to embrace uncertainty and adapt to new cultures.
例 2
话题开头:My favorite book
主旨:Reading my favorite book inspired me to think critically and explore my own creativity.

考点一 词义猜测题
(2023年6月·天津卷)
Herman Cruse, a school bus driver from New Jersey, has been with Middle Township Public Schools for the past nine years. He believes bus drivers are the eyes and ears of students when they're away from home and they have a gift to discern what kids are feeling.
During one morning ride, Cruse noticed a kindergartner seemed a little sad. When Cruse asked him what was wrong, the boy explained that he wasn't able to complete his reading assignment because his parents were busy with his four siblings (兄弟姐妹). An idea suddenly crossed Cruse's mind. “Listen, if you don't mind, I'd like to come to the school and read with you. ”he said.
After receiving permission from the boy's teacher, Alex Bakley, Cruse showed up at her classroom the following week. When he walked in, the boy shouted proudly, “Hey, that's my bus driver!”They went into a quiet corner and began reading together. Later, a second student wanted to read with him, then a third. All the kids went to the teacher asking, “Can I read with Mr. Herman?”
Cruse now volunteers to help kindergarten students with reading two days a week, and on a third day, he instructs the school's first-and second-graders. After dropping the kids off at school, of course. Every child looks up to Cruse, both on and off the school bus. “Herman is super positive and he's a bright light at our school who makes every child feel loved and heard. ”said Bakley.
For Cruse, what started out as a way to kill time has now developed into a way to make a difference in the heart of a child. He used to go to the gym or library after delivering students to schools. It wasn't until he offered to help the boy on the bus that he realized there was something more rewarding he could be doing. It's a joy for him to see the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words. He loves how reading opens up a new world for them.
54.What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 1? (1 word)
____________________________________________________________

(25-26高三上·天津西青·期末)阅读下列短文并回答问题。
Sophia had always been the best art student in her class. Her paintings were colorful and full of energy, and her teacher often praised her skill. So when the school announced an art competition with the theme “Connection,” everyone expected Sophia to win. However, for the first time, Sophia found herself staring at a blank sheet of paper, unsure of where to start.
Sophia found the word “connection” vague and difficult to explain. She tried drawing different ideas — a family holding hands, a busy marketplace — but none of them seemed to capture the deeper meaning she felt the theme required. “Is it just about people being together?” she wondered. “Or something more invisible, like feelings or memories?” Her classmates eagerly talked about their ideas, showing their early drawings and laughing as they worked. Sophia, however, felt stuck, and the pressure to meet everyone’s expectations only made things worse.
One afternoon, Sophia decided to take a walk in the park to relax. As she wandered, she noticed a young boy trying to fly a kite. The kite shook in the air before falling to the ground. The boy sighed but didn’t give up. He carefully adjusted the string, ran faster, and tried again. His face showed how determined he was as he focused on the kite. Finally, the kite rose high into the sky, and the boy’s face lit up with happiness. Watching him, Sophia stopped in her tracks. She suddenly felt inspired, as if the boy’s patience and determination had unlocked her own creativity.
She rushed home and began painting, showing the boy’s hard work, the kite’s bright colors, and the invisible connection between them. Her brush moved quickly, and her style was simple and direct, unlike her usual detailed work.
On the day of the competition, Sophia showed her painting. Some classmates whispered that it wasn’t her best work. Sophia felt unsure but stood by her piece. Though she didn’t win first place, she received a special award for “Most Creative Artwork.” As Sophia packed up her painting, she realized art wasn’t about being perfect — it was about showing what truly mattered.

Are you a shy person? Do you find shyness prevents you from thinking clearly and performing well in your work? Overcoming shyness takes time and it is certainly worth taking some steps. The following are some good suggestions for you to fight against shyness.
Know you are in great company.
If you are shy, you are not alone. It is reported that 93 percent of people experience shyness in their lives. And of course, there are some cool, nice, kind and generous people who experience the same feelings and thoughts as you do. There is no need to blame yourself for being shy.
Give yourself time and space.
Being shy is not easy and sometimes it can be very annoying. I have certainly felt this many times. I find the best thing is to give myself time and space. Many shy persons say they need to have some time alone each day. If you are shy, make sure you allow yourself time to gather your thoughts. Doing this means you have more energy to deal with others.
Realize you can overcome shyness.
Sometimes you can get so baffled by being shy that it can be hard for you to figure out what to say or what to do next. However, this is something you can overcome after all. In fact, everyone can overcome shyness. Next time you meet strangers or have to speak before others, try to be brave. You can do it. What’s more, the older you are, the more experiences you have. And this means there are more situations where you feel comfortable and you are able to overcome your shyness little by little. Don’t just wait. Shyness won’t go away if you leave it as it is.

考点二 段落大意题
(2025年3月·天津卷)
In the small town where I grew up, graduating from high school was already a big thing. But I was driven to pursue my education and become a lawyer like my best friend’s dad, one of the few role models available. After completing my first degree at a university near my parents’ house, I started my graduate study of law at the University of North Carolina, as I had planned for the past 15 years.
It was my 23rd birthday, and I was celebrating it as I had for years: by watching the annual Perseid meteor shower (英仙座流星雨). But this year was different. I was away from the small town for the first time and was meeting people in fields that were new to me. My horizons had been opened up, and I began to question my life path. Should I stick to my long-standing plans? Could my lifelong love for astronomy be more than a hobby?
Coincidentally, a solar eclipse (日食) helped me make the decision. I made a trip along the winding mountain roads and found a peaceful spot in a valley. When the Moon gradually slid in front of the Sun, the world around me became dark. The water was still, and the sunset surrounded me. That moment, I knew what I had to do. I dropped out of law school to pursue my passion.
Now, about to get my doctoral degree in astronomy, I realize that my exposure to the night sky gave me a great gift. It bestowed a broad view: In the vast universe, our individual desires and insecurities are insignificant. It liberated me from allowing worries or self-doubt to stand in the way of chasing new dreams.
During this year’s Perseid meteor shower, I’ll be presenting my research at an international conference in Cape Town. It will be my first trip out of the country. And the little girl inside me who watched the shooting stars from her parents? backyard can’t wait to watch the same stars flash across the South African sky.

57.How were the author’s horizons expanded? (no more than 15 words)

Samantha, my childhood playmate living in Florida, had to deal with some complex problems in her life. Her mother recognized the difficulty she was having and understood that things would be much better if I could come and visit and spend a couple of days helping her sort things out. So her mother purchased the tickets for me to fly down and see her.
I flew out from Boston in a thunderstorm and it was rainy and thundering most of the way to Charlotte, North Carolina. When I arrived in Charlotte, the flight had been delayed so much that there were no additional flights going out for the rest of the night. I became very grieved and burst into tears.
It only took a minute or two before I felt an arm being put around my shoulders from behind. It was a woman that I had flown into Charlotte on the same flight with and she said, “Don’t worry, young girl. You’re with us now.”
I cried harder when she said that, because I immediately felt less alone. Deb and Mark were heading to Orlando with their two teenage daughters. We all sat down and started chatting. They treated me immediately as though I was a family member. During the night, I curled up (蜷作一团) with my bag and slept while this family watched over me.
In the morning, we were informed that there was a flight to Orlando. That flight had four seats, enough for Deb, Mark, and their daughters. But Deb and Mark declared that they would not be taking that flight to Orlando because I was part of their family for the day, and they weren’t going to leave part of their family behind.
We flew into Tampa, on the west coast of Florida, and Deb and Mark rented a car and drove to Orlando. My friend’s mother was waiting for me in Orlando when we arrived. When I left the family, there were tears, a lot of hugs, and promises to stay in touch. This family was an inspiration to me, and they remain so every day.

For seven months, the dark-haired violinist at the 34th Street subway station had been just part of my morning background noise. His precise Vivaldi performances blended with train announcements and clicking heels as I rushed to my accounting job, occasionally dropping change but never exchanging words.
The morning when everything changed began ordinarily enough — another rainy March day, another hurried commute. As I mechanically dropped a dollar into his open case, his bow suddenly stilled. “Excuse me,” he said with a mild Eastern European accent. “Your right shoelace…”
I glanced down to see the lace untied and covered in mud. When I bent down to retie it, the musician knelt beside me, his violin momentarily forgotten. “Dangcrous in crowds,” he remarked, demonstrating a double-knot technique. In that awkward position, I finally noticed the Budapest Academy of Music pin (别针) fastened inside his instrument case.
“Thank you...?” I hesitated, realizing I’d never learned his name.
“László,” he supplied, then surprised me by asking, “You always walk so fast. To where?” That simple question revamped my routine. As trains came and went, we talked — about his transition from concert halls to subway platforms after moving to America, about my grandmother’s Hungarian (匈牙利的) heritage. When he played “Szomorú Vasárnap” in recognition of our shared roots, the familiar melody stopped me mid-step. I was thrilled by the break from my dull routine.
Now my commute includes scheduled pauses. On Mondays, I bring László fresh violin strings from the music store near my office. On Thursdays, he brings me a copy of the Hungarian newspaper he reads. What began as a shoelace warning has grown into something remarkable — proof that beneath the mechanical rush of city life, human connections still flourish in the unlikeliest places.
Sometimes, when latecomers rush past our conversations, I see my former self in their hurried steps. They don’t know what they’re missing — the subway’s best musician won’t call after them about untied laces. That privilege belongs only to those who finally stop moving long enough to listen.

Studies show teaching children how to cook at an early age helps with reading comprehension and fine motor ability, in addition to learning about nutrition and food safety. In 2015 Stephanie Drewry was looking for a cooking summer camp for her three children. To her dismay, she quickly realized such a camp didn’t exist.
“I have my degree in education, but I had been staying home with my kids, ” Drewry says. “I love working with kids, so I just decided to take a spare bedroom and turn it into a one-room cooking school called Sprouts Cooking School. ”
The school grew in popularity so quickly that Drewry realized she would need more space outside her home for the classes. In 2017 she moved Sprouts into a 1,400-square-foot storefront (临街店面) in Carmel, Indiana. As demand grew, Drewry opened another Sprouts in the same area in 2022.
“Our classrooms are built with kids in mind. The worktops (操作台) in the classrooms are slightly lower than normal to fit in with their height,” Drewry says. “All of the cooking facilities are domestic ones. I wanted to have them feel like cooking in their own home.”
The school offers activities targeted at kids aged 3 to 13. Younger kids might make cookies while older ones are cooking soup and meatballs. There are birthday parties and summer camps as well. The fun part of the activities is that the kids can eat or take home whatever they make. They can also enjoy themselves in the themed classes like Harry Potter or Winter Wonder-land Baking. With all these activities, the school is extremely popular.
Teaching kids, especially those picky eaters, to cook helps a lot because they’re more willing to eat something made by themselves. More importantly, it is also about releasing children into the world with a life skill they’ll need as an adult when they’re no longer in their parents’ care.

The Wonders of Urban Gardening
Urban gardening has been on the rise in recent years, and it’s not just a passing trend. In the concrete jungles of big cities, people are discovering the joy and benefits of growing their own plants right in their backyards, roofs, or even small balconies.
Take my neighbor, Mr. Smith, for example. He used to have a small, barren patch of land in his backyard. A couple of years ago, he decided to turn it into a mini-garden. He started with some easy-to-grow vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. At first, it was a bit of a struggle. The soil wasn’t in the best condition, and he had to learn how to deal with pests without using harmful chemicals. But as time went by, his garden flourished. Now, his backyard is a vibrant oasis filled with green leaves and colorful blossoms. He not only has fresh, organic produce for his family but also shares the surplus with neighbors.
Urban gardening also has a significant environmental impact. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving the air quality in the city. Gardens can help reduce the urban heat island effect by providing shade and evaporative cooling. Additionally, by growing their own food, people can cut down on the carbon emissions associated with transporting food from farms to cities.
For many city dwellers, urban gardening is also a great way to relieve stress. Spending time in the garden, digging in the soil, and watching plants grow can be incredibly therapeutic. It allows people to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and connect with nature. Moreover, it can be a fun family activity. Children can learn about where food comes from, the life cycle of plants, and the importance of taking care of the environment.
However, urban gardening does face some challenges. Space is often limited, so gardeners need to be creative in using vertical gardening techniques or small-scale containers. Also, dealing with limited sunlight in some urban areas and ensuring proper water supply can be tricky. But with a bit of knowledge and perseverance, these obstacles can be overcome.

My friend Peggy and I had both been to Paris before, but always signed up for a tour group, seeing all the usual tourist sites and hearing the same tour guide recitations. This would be the first time to visit it on our Jack Jones, free to god anywhere and try anything.
On previous trips, we hadn’t made any real contact with the people of that city. This time we’d make it. One evening, we found a tiny cafe known only to the locals, and went inside. We were greeted by the owner, whose smile gradually disappeared when he discovered Peggy and I were not French and bad a very limited command of French. Neither could he speak any English, so he retreated to the kitchen. Moments later, a young woman led us to our seats at the other end of a table already occupied by an elderly couple. She gave us two menus, but unfortunately, there was no picture attached to each dish.
For a few minutes, we struggled to recall a few French words, but discovered that the descriptions of each dish were too hard for us. Our table mates noticed our difficulty. The old man began explaining each dish, one at a time. Since he spoked very little English, his translations took the form of gestures and animal sounds. For example, for the beef dish, he pretended that his hands were horns on both sides of his head, accompanied by a cow’s sound.
When the young waitress returned, we placed our order and our new friends gave her instructions on how to prepare the food. Despite our limited ability to speak French, we continued our lively conversation throughout the meal. We talked about the beauty of Paris, our lives and our families. Near the end of the evening, a flower seller made her way through the cafe. We watched the old gentleman purchase a bunch of flowers. Artfully, he picked up two roses from the bunch, presented them to his lady, and gave her a kiss. Then, bowing smartly in our direction, he held out those two roses, one for each of us.
We found our Paris. And we’ll never forget that evening in Paris.

Awake from a short sleep in her chair, my grandmother ran her fingers through her wavy white hair, looked out her window at the blue sky, and asked me what I would wish for if I had just one wish.
She often asks this, and I always answer the same way—“To have Granddad back” —which usually gets her reminiscing about him. Memories of their 67-year life together would always make her smile.
My grandmother was born in Ireland. In her teens, she moved to a poor village in England. At 28, my grandmother walked herself through the snow to birth her first child. When she was 50, she survived an emergency surgery. In her 60s, she suffered from arthritis(关节炎)but still managed to climb Snowdon, Wales’s tallest peak.
About a decade ago, I noticed that she began to lose her hearing. If I asked what she had for lunch, she might say, “Oh, the weather has been lovely today. ” She seemed to recycle the same handful of answers to my questions.
In recent years, I’ve been trying to show up for her more, in person. One day after I made us coffee, I asked her: “What’s the secret to being successful in your 90s? ”
“Oh Richard, so many people are old at 60. They just want to sit all day. You won’t make it to 90 like that. You have to try. ”
“Try what? ”
“Try walking, ” she said. “Try gardening. Try cooking. Trying doesn’t require a lot of trying. Just try a little . Like, with this coffee you’ve made us. I know you tried . ”
Even at 93, my grandmother still knits blankets for the local hospital’s babies and buys books to continue with her French. “Age is just another bot- her attempting to convince you of the impossible in the world, but actually the world is filled with possibilities,” she once said.

新情境:本题选取93 岁祖母的乐观人生与亲情陪伴的温情成长情境作为命题载体,区别于传统阅读简答的普通人物故事或抽象话题。该情境贴合高考英语 “弘扬亲情孝道、传递生命正能量、引导价值思考” 的命题趋势,将阅读简答考查与高龄生活态度、亲情陪伴、终身成长等现实话题结合,要求考生在理解祖母坚韧乐观的人生态度基础上精准提取并概括信息,体现语言学习与人文关怀、生命教育的深度融合,符合高考 “在真实温情语境中考查语言运用与思维能力” 的改革方向。
新考法:本题采用词义猜测 + 段落主旨 + 细节原因 + 观点概括 + 开放表达的综合考法,打破了单纯信息摘抄的浅层考查模式。各题均有严格字数限制,要求考生在定位原文信息的基础上进行同义转换、句式精简与逻辑概括,而非机械照搬原句。这种考法侧重考查考生的信息筛选能力、语言转换能力与规范表达能力,契合高考阅读简答 “重简洁、重准确、重逻辑” 的命题改革方向。
新角度:本题从亲情互动 — 人生经历 — 衰老变化 — 生活智慧 — 价值升华的记叙文结构角度设题,五道题目由基础到开放、层层递进。命题人通过设置字数限制、信息跨段、细节转述、生活迁移等特点,强化对精准概括与规范表达的考查;从理解短语、归纳段意,到分析原因、提炼观点,再到结合自身表达观点,全面考查 “读懂故事 — 读懂情感 — 表达自我” 的综合语言能力。这种设题角度突出了高考对 “信息提取 + 语言概括 + 价值思辨” 的三重要求,体现 “以文育人、传递乐观坚韧与亲情温暖” 的命题思路。

When Tom transferred from his rural middle school to a bustling city high school, he faced a crushing academic gap. Raised in a village where math lessons focused on basic addition and subtraction, Tom felt utterly unprepared for the city school’s rigorous curriculum. Algebra equations and geometric theorems seemed like a foreign language. His first math test — a humiliating 42/100 — left him paralyzed with shame. “I’ll never catch up,” he thought, feeling overwhelmed and avoiding eye contact with classmates who scored effortlessly in the 90s.
Ms. Liu, a patient and observant math teacher, recognized Tom’s silent struggle. After class, she handed him a neatly printed practice sheet. “Let’s tackle this step by step,” she said. For the next three months, Ms. Liu dedicated two afternoons weekly to one-on-one tutoring. She broke complex problems into visual diagrams, comparing algebraic variables to “missing puzzle pieces” and geometric angles to “folded paper edges.” To help him memorize formulas, she created catchy mnemonics (助记符,顺口溜), like “All Students Take Coffee” for trigonometric (三角函数) ratios. Additionally, she invited Tom to join her after-school study group, where peers shared problem-solving shortcuts in a judgment-free zone.
Tom’s determination matched his teacher’s effort. He transformed every spare moment into a learning opportunity: reviewing flashcards during his hour-long bus commute, solving practice problems during lunch breaks, and rewriting notes until his hands cramped. Each evening, he emailed Ms. Liu his homework drafts, and she responded with detailed corrections by dawn. Progress was painfully slow—his next test climbed to 65, then 78 — but Tom clung to Ms. Liu’s mantra: “Small steps still move mountains.”
The turning point arrived when Ms. Liu surprised him with an application for the Regional Math Olympiad. “You’re ready,” she insisted, though Tom doubted himself. For weeks, he drilled past competition papers, often working past midnight. On the day of the event, his palms sweat as he faced the first algebra problem, but Ms. Liu’s voice echoed in his mind: “Focus on what you know.” When results were announced, Tom’s name appeared under “Honorable Mentions” — an achievement he’d never imagined possible.
At the award ceremony, Tom clutched (紧握,抱紧) his certificate, tears blurring the stage lights. “Ms. Liu didn’t just teach me math,” he told the crowd, his voice trembling. “She showed me that failure is just the first draft of success.” The applause from classmates and teachers cemented a truth Tom now embraced: perseverance could bridge even the widest gaps.

(2025·天津南开·三模)阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova—not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score (乐谱)so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to come off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage. “My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
6.What does Robert Titterton do in his spare time?(no more than 10 words)
