In his early working days, what he met was more difficult than expected. He got up at 6 a.m. to help with morning tasks. He provided full bedside care, especially for the elderly who had to stay in bed all the time. Often, his day didn’t end until 11 p.m. He wanted to quit at first, but after a period, the warmth and trust he received from the elderly changed his mind.
Using his medical knowledge, Chen Sheng takes care of the elderly in a proper way, including physical examination, health guidance, advice on food and so on. “I arrived at the nursing home with lots of illnesses and could only lie in bed. After two months of good care by Chen Sheng, I was able to walk again by myself. Life here is very convenient, from satisfying daily services to good medical care, just like at home,” said Grandpa Li.

On a cold winter night, two beagles, Pepper and Cooper, walked along a snowy road in Bethel, Ohio. They had no home and needed a safe, warm place to rest. Pepper, the female dog, was pregnant, and Cooper stayed close to protect her.
Gus Kiebel, a wildlife officer, was driving home when he saw the dogs in the snow. He noticed they wore collars with name tags. Gus stopped his truck and gently approached them. The dogs didn’t try to run away. He read their names and tried calling the number on their tags, but the snow made it hard to use his phone.
Gus decided to take the dogs into his truck to keep them warm. He called the number again, but the owner said he didn’t want the dogs anymore. Realizing they were abandoned, Gus called his wife, Katie. She told him to bring them home because they couldn’t leave the dogs outside in the storm.
That night, Gus and Katie gave the dogs food, water, and a warm bed on their porch. The two beagles stayed close to each other showing how much they cared for each other. Although Gus had always wanted beagles, the couple already had a family dog and couldn’t keep Pepper and Cooper.
The next day, Gus contacted a no-kill animal shelter. Katie brought the dogs there but made the staff promise to keep them together. She called often to check on them, glad to hear they were safe and cared for. A few days after Christmas, the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family.

考查固定句型。“It is + adj. + of/for sb. to do sth.”是固定句型,当形容词描述人的品质、性格时(如polite, kind, clever等),用of;当形容词描述事情的性质时(如necessary, important, possible等),用for。第一空形容词polite(有礼貌的)修饰人Chen Dan的品质,用of;第二空形容词necessary(必要的)修饰“向他学习”这件事的性质,用for。故选D。

For Chen Sheng, a young man in Meitan, Guizhou Province, caring for the elderly is more than a job—it’s a calling in his heart. Chen Sheng was raised by his grandparents, and his dream was to take care of more elderly people. After graduating (毕业) in 2017 with a degree in healthcare, Chen Sheng completed eight months of training in a local hospital and started to work in a nursing home.
In his early working days, what he met was more difficult than expected. He got up at 6 a.m. to help with morning tasks. He provided full bedside care, especially for the elderly who had to stay in bed all the time. Often, his day didn’t end until 11 p.m. He wanted to quit at first, but after a period, the warmth and trust he received from the elderly changed his mind.
Using his medical knowledge, Chen Sheng takes care of the elderly in a proper way, including physical examination, health guidance, advice on food and so on. “I arrived at the nursing home with lots of illnesses and could only lie in bed. After two months of good care by Chen Sheng, I was able to walk again by myself. Life here is very convenient, from satisfying daily services to good medical care, just like at home,” said Grandpa Li.
Besides medical care, Chen Sheng also gives emotional (情感的) support. He always offers comfort in time when a grandpa or a grandma is upset. Grandma Sun likes to talk with Chen Sheng every day and always shares the things she considers valuable. Grandma Sun feels warm and happy because of Chen Sheng. Her family thanks him for his patience and great love.

【导语】本文是记叙文,主要讲述由祖父母抚养长大的青年陈盛,毕业后进入养老院,为老人提供专业医疗护理与情感关怀,展现了年轻一代的养老担当。
21.第一段第二句“Chen Sheng was raised by his grandparents, and his dream was to take care of more elderly people.”和最后一句“After graduating (毕业)...started to work in a nursing home.”,他由祖父母抚养长大的“成长经历”,让他想要在养老院工作。
22.第二段“He got up at 6 a.m. to...Often, his day didn’t end until 11 p.m. He wanted to quit at first, but after a period, the warmth and trust he received from the elderly changed his mind.”,他工作初期非常辛苦,每天从早忙到晚,后文提到老人们的温暖与信任改变了他的想法,说明他起初想“放弃”这份工作。quit与give up同义。
23.第三段李爷爷的话“‘I arrived at the nursing home...could only lie in bed. After two months of good care by Chen Sheng, I was able to walk again by myself. Life here is very convenient,...’”,陈盛把他照顾得很好(对应①),养老院的生活很便利(对应②),他刚来只能卧床,现在能自己走路了,说明他的健康状况改善了(对应④)。
24.第三段“Using his medical knowledge, Chen Sheng takes care of the elderly in a proper way, including physical examination, health guidance, advice on food and so on.”和第四段“Besides medical care, Chen Sheng also gives emotional (情感的) support...Grandma Sun likes to talk with Chen Sheng every day...Her family thanks him for his patience and great love. ”,他用医学知识为老人提供全面医疗护理,还主动给予情感安慰,他耐心倾听老人日常分享,说明他是一个“热心且耐心的”人。

On a cold winter night, two beagles, Pepper and Cooper, walked along a snowy road in Bethel, Ohio. They had no home and needed a safe, warm place to rest. Pepper, the female dog, was pregnant, and Cooper stayed close to protect her.
Gus Kiebel, a wildlife officer, was driving home when he saw the dogs in the snow. He noticed they wore collars with name tags. Gus stopped his truck and gently approached them. The dogs didn’t try to run away. He read their names and tried calling the number on their tags, but the snow made it hard to use his phone.
Gus decided to take the dogs into his truck to keep them warm. He called the number again, but the owner said he didn’t want the dogs anymore. Realizing they were abandoned, Gus called his wife, Katie. She told him to bring them home because they couldn’t leave the dogs outside in the storm.
That night, Gus and Katie gave the dogs food, water, and a warm bed on their porch. The two beagles stayed close to each other showing how much they cared for each other. Although Gus had always wanted beagles, the couple already had a family dog and couldn’t keep Pepper and Cooper.
The next day, Gus contacted a no-kill animal shelter. Katie brought the dogs there but made the staff promise to keep them together. She called often to check on them, glad to hear they were safe and cared for. A few days after Christmas, the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family. In the midst of a snowy winter, two abandoned dogs found a warm home, thanks to the kindness of strangers.
26.How did Gus realize Pepper and Cooper had been left behind?
A.They walked along the snowy road. B.Their tags’ phone number didn't work.
C.The owner refused to take them back. D.They didn’t try to run away from Gus.

A.A warm place in the snow B.A snowstorm and poor dogs
C.A helping hand in the cold D.Gus and the beagles’ journey
【答案】26.C 27.B 28.A 29.C
【导语】本文讲述了野生动物官员Gus和妻子在寒冷的冬夜暂时收留被遗弃的两只狗,最终通过动物收容所帮助它们找到新家的故事。
26.推理判断题。根据“He called the number again, but the owner said he didn’t want the dogs anymore.”可知,Gus给狗主人打电话,但狗主人说他不想要这两只狗了,这让格斯意识到它们被遗弃了。故选C。
27.词句猜测题。根据“the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family.”及“two abandoned dogs found warm home,”可知,两只被遗弃的狗找到了温暖的家,说明它们被人收养了,故推出划线部分adopted意为“收养”,与选项B意义相近。故选B。
28.细节理解题。根据“He read their names and tried calling the number on their tags,”可知,Gus先拨打了狗牌上的号码,根据“Gus decided to take the dogs into his truck to keep them warm.”可知,Gus决定把狗带到他的卡车上,根据“The next day, Gus contacted a no-kill animal shelter. Katie brought the dogs there but made the staff promise to keep them together.”可知,Gus的妻子把狗带到收容所,要求工作人员保证让它们待在一起,根据“A few days after Christmas, the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had be adopted as a pair by a loving family.”可知,两只狗一起被一个有爱的家庭收养了,故正确顺序为a-c-b-d。故选A。
29.最佳标题题。通读全文可知,本文讲述了野生动物官员Gus和妻子在寒冷的冬夜暂时收留被遗弃的两只狗,最终通过动物收容所帮助它们找到新家的故事,选项C“寒冷中的援助之手”符合文章的标题。故选C。
四、还原句子(共4小题;每小题1.5分,满分6分)
Travelling the world is a dream for many people, but do you want to make a difference while enjoying the world? 30
Volunteer travel is an act of taking a trip where all or part of the purpose of the trip is to do voluntary work. 31 During the trip, volunteer travellers often provide services like teaching, cooking, animal caring, and cultural activities. In exchange for their help, they may get free or cheap accommodation (住宿), meals or classes.
Volunteer travel is not a new way to explore the world. It first became popular in the 1960s. 32 However, as time goes by, more and more volunteer trips are taking place in the volunteers’ home countries.
There are many advantages of volunteer travel. First of all, volunteer travel allows you to give back to the communities you visit. Whether you’re teaching English to children, cheering up sick kids, or working with wildlife, your efforts can make a real difference in the lives of others.
33 It’s also a great way to explore new cultures, meet new people and open our minds to the world around us. By working with local people on community projects, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the places you visit and learn some valuable life skills.
In a word, you can learn a lot from a volunteer vacation, and give back to society at the same time.
A.It’s important to do your research.
B.But volunteer travel isn’t just about helping others.
C.If so, volunteer travel could be a good choice (选择) for you.
D.It’s a great way to make new friends around the world.
E.It can last anywhere from a few days to several months.
F.At first, most volunteer activities took place in a foreign country.
【答案】30.C 31.E 32.F 33.B
【分析】本文主要讲述了志愿旅行是一种以志愿工作为部分或全部目的的旅行方式,介绍了其定义、发展历程、优势,即既能回馈社会又能让旅行者探索新文化、提升自我。
30.根据“Travelling the world is a dream for many people, but do you want to make a difference while enjoying the world?”可知,此处通过提问引出解决方案,选项C“如果是这样,志愿旅行可能是你的一个好选择”符合语境,承接上文并引出“志愿旅行”的主题。故选C。
31.根据“Volunteer travel is an act of taking a trip where all or part of the purpose of the trip is to do voluntary work.”可知,此处进一步说明志愿旅行的时间跨度,选项E“它可以持续几天到几个月不等”补充了旅行时长的信息,与后文“During the trip...”形成连贯描述。故选E。
32.根据“It first became popular in the 1960s.”和“However, as time goes by, more and more volunteer trips are taking place in the volunteers’ home countries.”可知,此处对比志愿旅行的地点变化,选项F“起初,大多数志愿活动发生在外国”与后文“home countries”形成转折对比,符合时间逻辑。故选F。
33.根据“First of all, volunteer travel allows you to give back to the communities you visit”和“It’s also a great way to explore new cultures, meet new people...”可知,此处过渡到志愿旅行对个人的好处,选项B“但志愿旅行不仅仅是帮助他人”承上启下,从“帮助他人”转向“自我提升”的论述。故选B。

41.句意:那次经历提醒她要找到一种更好的方式来为孩子们服务。remind sb to do sth“提醒某人做某事”,此处用find“找到”的不定式形式。故填to find。
42.句意:除了吃饭之外,萨维奇还教孩子们跳舞和游戏,并告诉他们什么是对是错。分析句子可知,此处是宾语从句,连接词作从句主语,用what,表示告诉他们什么是对是错。故填what。
43.句意:施食处对孩子们的个人成长非常重要。child“孩子”,此处表示泛指,用复数children“孩子们”,且修饰名词短语personal growth,用名词所有格children’s“孩子们的”。故填children’s。
44.句意:它极大地影响了他的生活。great“大的”,形容词,此处用其副词形式greatly“非常;大大地”修饰动词influenced。故填greatly。
45.句意:萨维奇做了很多,但她仍在想一些方法来更好地帮助孩子们。“她仍在想一些方法来更好地帮助孩子们”和“萨维奇做了很多”是转折关系,用but“但是”承接句子。故填but。
46.句意:她说:“我们的梦想是为孩子们提供更多的食物,用食物滋养他们的身体,用爱和关怀滋养他们的心灵。我永远不会放弃。”provide“提供”,根据“and to nurture their bodies with meals”可知,and连接并列成分,此处用动词不定式作表语。故填to provide。
七、根据句意,用所给词汇的适当形式填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
47.Doing volunteer work can help you build more c_________ (信心) in yourself.
【答案】confidence/onfidence
【详解】句意:做志愿者工作可以帮助你建立对自己更多的信心。该处需一个名词,在句中作动词build的宾语;中文提示“(信心)”及首字母“c”提示语义与“confidence”相关;confidence为不可数名词,在句中表示抽象概念的“信心”。故填confidence。
48.He looked happily at his son when he heard that his son had got first prize in the ________ (compete).
【答案】competition
【详解】句意:当他听到儿子在那次比赛中获得第一名的消息时,他高兴地看向了自己的儿子。空处位于定冠词“the”之后,需使用名词,动词compete的名词形式是competition。故填competition。
49.The new rule ________ (影响) the daily lives of millions of people in the future.
【答案】will influence
【详解】句意:这项新的规则将对未来数以百万计的人们的日常生活产生影响。根据汉语提示可知,influence“影响”,动词,句中“in the future”是一般将来时的标志词,需使用一般将来时。故填will influence。
50.Lily was a________ (缺席) from the meeting because she missed the bus.
【答案】absent/bsent
【详解】句意:莉莉缺席了会议,因为她没赶上公共汽车。根据“Lily was a...from the meeting”以及汉语提示可知,此处使用absent,be absent from“缺席”。故填absent。
51.Getting enough sleep every night can make our bodies stronger against d________ (疾病).
【答案】diseases/iseases
【详解】句意:每晚获得充足的睡眠,可以让我们的身体更强健,更能抵御疾病。disease表示“疾病”,可数名词,此处需要用复数表示泛指。故填diseases。
八、句子翻译(共3小题;每小题2分,满分6分)
52.蛋糕的香甜味道让她想起了奶奶家的厨房。
The sweet smell of cakes ________ ________ ________ her grandma’s kitchen.
【答案】 reminds/reminded her of
【详解】原句中“让她想起”是关键词,remind sb of sth“使某人想起某事/某物”,是动词短语,句子描述的是一个经常性的感受,用一般现在时,主语The sweet smell是单数,所以用reminds;本句也可表示过去某一次的经历,用一般过去时reminded;her“她”,宾格。故填reminds/reminded;her;of。
53.他决定把他的自行车捐给那个男孩。
He decided to ________ his bike ________ the boy.
【答案】 donate to
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,此处是donate ... to“把……捐给……”,decide to do sth“决定做某事”。故填donate;to。
54.她期盼着在期中考试中取得好成绩。
She ________ to get good ________ in the mid-term exam.
【答案】 expects grades
【详解】根据中英文对照可知缺少“期盼”和“成绩”。“期盼”expect,主语是she,句子是一般现在时,谓语动词用三单形式expects;“取得好成绩”get good grades,固定短语。故填expects;grades。
九、书面表达(满分10分)
