Since 2021, this kind-hearted girl has spent over 60 hours reading storybooks to shy dogs and cats, helping them feel safe around people. It all began when Sabal joined JHS’s “Pawsitive Reading” program at age 9. “I’ve always loved animals,” she said, remembering how nervous she felt reading to her first shelter dog. But soon, both the animals and Sabal grew more confident. She even baked healthy treats for them using pumpkin and peanut butter! Her love for shelter pets deepened when her family adopted Cuber, a gentle dog from JHS. After Cuber passed away last year, Sabal worked even harder. She started taking dogs on field trips to parks and created colorful “Adopt Me” signs to help the dogs find families. Her favorite moment was seeing a scared puppy she’d cared for go home with a smiling boy. Sabal’s parents were amazed by her dedication. “We worried she was too young,” her mother admitted, “but she’s shown such responsibility.” Last month, JHS chose Sabal as the first star of their “Kind Kids” program to inspire other children. Her story will appear in their winter magazine, with more young heroes featured throughout 2025. Through summer camps at JHS, Sabal learned how to understand animal behavior. Now she teaches visitors: “Always be gentle. These pets might have had tough lives before.” Her dream is to become an animal doctor while continuing volunteer work. The JHS leader says Sabal proves that kind hearts can change the world for animals. For Sabal, the reward is simple: When a lonely dog wags its tail at me, I know I’m doing something important. 1．How old was Sabal when she started volunteering at JHS? A．7 years old. B．9 years old. C．12 years old. D．10 years old. 2．What does the underlined word “adopted” mean in the third paragraph? A．Looking after an animal for a short time. B．Becoming a pet’s owner.

A．①②③④⑤ B．②③④⑤⑥ C．①②④⑤⑥ D．①③④⑤⑥ 4．Why were Sabal’s parents surprised by her work? A．She spent too much time taking care of dogs. B．They thought she was too young to volunteer.

B．Pet Summer Camps at JHS. C．A Girl’s Love Changes Pets’ Lives. D．How to Bake Treats for Dogs. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．C 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文介绍了美国女孩Sabal在JHS动物中心的志愿经历，她用爱心和责任感帮助流浪动物找到新家。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“It all began when Sabal joined JHS’s ‘Pawsitive Reading’ program at age 9.”可知，她9岁时开始志愿服务。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据第三段“when her family adopted Cuber, a gentle dog from JHS”以及下文“Her favorite moment was seeing a scared puppy she’d cared for go home with a smiling boy”可知，此处强调小狗被带回家照顾，故adopted指 “收养、成为宠物的主人”。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第二段“reading storybooks to shy dogs and cats”、“baked healthy treats for them”、第三段“created colourful ‘Adopt Me’ signs to help the dogs find families”、最后一段“summer camps at JHS, Sabal learned how to understand animal behavior”以及“taking dogs on field trips to parks”可知，他们给收容所里的猫狗读书、为它们烤制健康零食、帮助它们找到领养家庭、参加夏令营学习如何理解动物行为、带狗去公园等地进行户外活动，故①②④⑤⑥正确。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据第四段“Sabal’s parents were amazed by her dedication. ‘We worried she was too young… but she’s shown such responsibility.’ ”可知，父母起初担心她太小，不适合做志愿者，后来却发现她很有责任心。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。文章重点介绍Sabal的爱心和行动如何改善动物的生活，最合适标题为“A Girl’s Love Changes Pets’ Lives”。故选C。 B In many cases, you may find yourself or somebody faking (假笑) a smile in photos. Why can one easily discover a fake smile and why does it seem so difficult to give a real smile in photos? Scientists have found that a real smile is featured by two main muscle (肌肉) movements. When we smile, we lift our mouth upwards and cause the skin around our eyes to gather into folds. These muscle movements are usually absent in the case of a forced smile, especially when the smile is small. Our brains are highly skilled at telling the differences in muscle movements. That’s why though trying to fake a real smile can be hard, discovering it on someone else is a piece of cake. One of the most common reasons why you look unnatural in photos is an increased awareness of your appearance. The worry about posture, hair, and makeup can add to the stress, killing the chances of a real smile. A smile looks best when it comes naturally. Warm and welcoming smiles come along with warm and welcoming body language, but when you’re in front of the camera, trying too hard to perform can make your body language appear stiff (僵硬的) and far from welcoming. Besides, facial expressions are not always understood in the same way. A smile can mean different things in different cultures. For example, a wide smile that seems welcoming to some may appear fake and dishonest. This may also influence how people feel about your smile in photos. However, we shouldn’t let this trouble us too much. So, if you want to smile naturally before the camera, perhaps the simplest trick is to give your brain a real reason to feel happy. Maybe recall a joyful moment or just think back to a funny story you read… that should work! 1．How does the writer begin the article? A．By asking questions. B．By giving examples. C．By listing numbers. D．By telling stories. 2．What is a real smile connected with? A．Personal characters. B．Educational backgrounds. C．Muscle movements. D．Professional achievements. 3．What is a reason for people’s unnatural smiles? A．They fail to hide their feelings. B．They are tired of taking photos. C．They care too much about their looks. D．They are weak in performing tricks. 4．What may help you give a real smile according to the writer? A．Recalling a strange story. B．Practicing smiles in the mirror. C．Improving your expression abilities. D．Thinking of a humorous moment. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．To introduce the reasons for unnatural smiles in photos and how to smile naturally. B．To explain why it’s easy to fake a smile and hard to show a real one in photos. C．To tell us different cultures have different understandings of smiles. D．To show the importance of real smiles in our daily life. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．C 4．D 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了假笑与真笑的区别、假笑容易被识破的原因以及如何在拍照时展现自然笑容的科学解释和建议。 1．细节理解题。文章开篇通过两个句子提出问题“Why can one easily discover a fake smile and why does it seem so difficult to give a real smile in photos?”，这种以提问开启文章的方式，对应选项A“By asking questions（通过提问）”。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Scientists have found that a real smile is featured by two main muscle movements”可知，真笑具有两种主要的肌肉动作特征，即与肌肉运动有关。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One of the most common reasons why you look unnatural in photos is an increased awareness (意识) of your appearance.”可知，笑容不自然的一个常见原因就是对自己外貌有了更多的关注，即过多关注外貌。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Maybe recall a joyful moment or just think back to a funny story you read...that should work!”可知，或许回忆起一段快乐的往事，或者只是回想一下读过的一个有趣的故事，这样应该会有效果。因此，回忆幽默时刻或许能帮助展现真实笑容。故选D。 5．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了拍照时笑容不自然的原因以及如何笑得自然的方法。故选A。 三、阅读匹配 阅读以下关于志愿服务的方法介绍，请根据同学们的志愿服务行动，匹配对应的宣传内容，并将宣传内容所对应的A、B、C、D、E 选项填在相应位置上。 1 .

What is body language? How does it work?   Want to speak with your body? Use body language! A “V” gesture shows happiness, victory or peace. Opening the mouth wide shows surprise. This is body language.   When you speak with others, body language is important. Some scientists believe that we do 65 per cent of our communication with body language. Body language is the key to communication. For example, when you make faces, people think you are naughty (淘气的) or shy. Frowning (皱眉) shows you are angry. Sometimes your words say one thing, but your body language says another. For example, you touch your face while telling a lie.   In different cultures, the same body language may have different meanings. Nodding your head in most countries means “Yes”. But in some parts of Greece and Turkey, it means “No”.   Different body language can also mean the same thing. Take “hello” for example. The French like to kiss cheeks to say “hello”. But the Japanese bow (鞠躬). Maoris (毛利人) in New Zealand touch noses with each other when they meet. 1．What does the “V” gesture mean according to the text?   2．What body language is the meaning of anger according to the text?   3．What may a boy do when he is lying? 4．What does “nodding your head” mean in some parts of Greece and Turkey?   5．What way do the French like to use to say  “hello”?   【答案】1．Happiness, victory or peace. 2．Frowning. 3．Touch his face. 4．It means “No”. 5．They like to kiss cheeks. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了肢体语言的重要性、不同肢体语言所表达的含义以及不同文化中肢体语言的差异。 1．根据第二段“A ‘V’ gesture shows happiness, victory or peace.”可知，“V”手势表示幸福、胜利或和平。故填Happiness, victory or peace. 2．根据第四段“Frowning (皱眉) shows you are angry.”可知，皱眉表示你生气了。故填Frowning. 3．根据第四段“Sometimes your words say one thing, but your body languages say another. For example, you touch your face while telling a lie.”可知，有时候你说的话是一种意思，但你的肢体语言却表达了另一种意思。例如，你在说谎的时候会摸脸。由此可知，当一个男孩说谎时，他可能会摸脸。故填Touch his face. 4．根据第五段“Nodding your head in most countries means ‘Yes’. But in some parts of Greece and Turkey, it means ‘No’.”可知，在大多数国家，点头表示“是”，但在希腊和土耳其的一些地方，点头表示“不”。故填It means “No”. 5．根据最后一段“Take ‘hello’ for example. The French like to kiss cheeks to say ‘hello’.”可知，以“你好”为例，法国人喜欢亲吻脸颊来表示“你好”。故填They like to kiss cheeks. 1 / 5 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题01 Units 1~2（语篇综合练） （建议用时：40分钟） 完形填空 讲述 17 岁玛丽亚学手语并开发助听障人士观影的应用程序的故事。 阅读A 介绍美国女孩 Sabal 在 JHS 动物中心做志愿，助力流浪动物找新家的经历。 阅读B 从科学角度解析真假笑的区别、假笑易被识破的原因，及拍照摆自然笑容的建议。 阅读匹配 介绍五位同学不同场景的志愿服务行动，展现青少年参与公益、传递温暖的志愿精神。 阅读还原 介绍成为志愿者的方法，给出选组织、发挥优势、合理安排时间等建议。 任务型阅读 介绍肢体语言的重要性、表达含义及不同文化中的肢体语言差异。 一、完形填空（U1~U2话题综合） Maria is a 17­-year-­old student.

What is body language? How does it work?   Want to speak with your body? Use body language! A “V” gesture shows happiness, victory or peace. Opening the mouth wide shows surprise. This is body language.   When you speak with others, body language is important. Some scientists believe that we do 65 per cent of our communication with body language. Body language is the key to communication. For example, when you make faces, people think you are naughty (淘气的) or shy. Frowning (皱眉) shows you are angry. Sometimes your words say one thing, but your body language says another. For example, you touch your face while telling a lie.   In different cultures, the same body language may have different meanings. Nodding your head in most countries means “Yes”. But in some parts of Greece and Turkey, it means “No”.   Different body language can also mean the same thing. Take “hello” for example. The French like to kiss cheeks to say “hello”. But the Japanese bow (鞠躬). Maoris (毛利人) in New Zealand touch noses with each other when they meet. 1．What does the “V” gesture mean according to the text?   2．What body language is the meaning of anger according to the text?   3．What may a boy do when he is lying? 4．What does “nodding your head” mean in some parts of Greece and Turkey?   5．What way do the French like to use to say  “hello”?   1 / 5 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
