At the age of 11, when I first found out that my grandfather, who was never in the kitchen, was the master behind it, I was greatly 1 . And I thought that this was the perfect chance to get the recipe (制作方法), and that I could actually have a time to 2 with him. Since then, I would go to my aunt’s early on the morning of New Year’s Day, and we’d make the cake together happily. I was amazed that Grandpa could peel an apple in one rind. And we’d mix everything and put it into the oven. Once the cake was done, the house would immediately smell like apples. But as I got older, so did Grandpa. One New Year’s Day, as I was taking out the apples from the shopping bag 3 as usual, he looked at me and said, “Sophia, what are you doing?” I was shocked. I knew that he was beginning to forget things, but I didn’t think he would forget this. It was our 4 . It was our time of bonding (联络感情). My heart ached. “We’re making the apple cake. You know, we always make a cake on New Year’s Day.” And he said, “Apple cake? Can you teach me?” Now, I was terrified (很害怕的). Still, I 5 Grandpa in making the cake because I didn’t want this tradition to die. But the whole time it just didn’t feel the same. Fast-forward to this New Year, Grandpa was in hospital, and we’d have our family get together there. To bring a bit of 6 to the family, I decided to make the apple cake at home by myself. But I was 7 myself the whole time. I was afraid the cake was going to taste terrible because it didn’t have Grandpa’s touch. At the hospital, everyone was surrounding (围绕) him, creating some 8 . Grandpa looked down at the cake, and then looked back up at me and smiled. And I felt memories of our shared moments flooding back to him. Even though he was in hospital, it felt like we had made the cake together. 1．A．surprised B．worried C．scared D．satisfied 2．A．compare B．connect C．study D．perform 3．A．cheerfully B．proudly C．nervously D．curiously 4．A．record B．rule C．interest D．tradition 5．A．served B．guided C．followed D．protected 6．A．trust B．company C．respect D．comfort 7．A．cheating B．excusing C．doubting D．thanking 8．A．space B．wealth C．magic D．warmth 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．A 4．D 5．B 6．D 7．C 8．D 【导语】本文讲述作者与祖父制作苹果蛋糕的传统，以及祖父年老失忆后，作者努力延续这一温馨回忆的故事。 1．句意：11岁时，当我第一次发现我的祖父是厨房的主人时，我非常惊讶。 surprised惊讶的；worried担心的；scared害怕的；satisfied满意的。根据“who was never in the kitchen”与“master behind it”的对比，可知此处指非常惊讶。故选A。 2．句意：我认为这是获得食谱的绝佳机会，我实际上可以有时间和他联系。 compare比较；connect连接；study学习；perform表演。根据“ and that I could actually have a time to…with him.”及后文提到的“bonding”可知，此处指有时间可以和祖父联系。故选B。 3．句意：一个元旦，当我像往常一样高兴地从购物袋里拿出苹果时，他看着我说：“索菲娅，你在干什么？” cheerfully高兴地；proudly骄傲地；nervously紧张地；curiously好奇地。根据“and we’d make the cake together happily.”及“as usual”可知，此处指作者像往常一样非常高兴。故选A。 4．句意：这是我们的传统。 record记录；rule规则；interest兴趣；tradition传统。根据“The New Year party was usually held at my aunt’s house and my favorite part was the apple cake.”可知，在新年夜制作苹果蛋糕是作者一家的传统。故选D。 5．句意：尽管如此，我还是指导爷爷做蛋糕，因为我不想让这个传统消亡。 served服务；guided指导；followed跟随；protected保护。根据“Can you teach me?”及“ I…Grandpa in making the cake”可知，祖父忘记了如何制作苹果蛋糕，故此处指作者指导祖父制作苹果蛋糕。故选B。 6．句意：为了给家人带来一点安慰，我决定自己在家做苹果蛋糕。 trust信任；company陪伴；respect尊重；comfort安慰。根据“Grandpa was in hospital…I decided to make the apple cake at home by myself.”可知，祖父住院了，为了让家人感到一些安慰，作者决定自己做苹果蛋糕。故选D。 7．句意：但我一直在怀疑自己。 cheating欺骗；excusing原谅；doubting怀疑；thanking感谢。根据“I was afraid the cake was going to taste terrible because it didn’t have Grandpa’s touch.”可知，作者在做苹果蛋糕时感到害怕，担心蛋糕味道不好，始终怀疑自己。故选C。 8．句意：在医院里，每个人都围着他，制造了一些温暖。 space空间；wealth财富；magic魔法；warmth温暖。根据“At the hospital, everyone was surrounding (围绕) him, creating some…and smiled.”可知，每个人都围绕着祖父，营造了一些温暖，所以祖父笑了。故选D。 中考模拟真题练习 Last week, I drove to Joe’s Hardware to get a few items. Upon returning to my 1 , I noticed a cat underneath (在下面) and bent down to find out what happened. At this point, my wallet fell off—but I didn’t notice it was 2 until about an hour later. I retraced (原路返回) my steps, asked around and tore my car inside out. Nothing. I lost my wallet. After this fact sank in, I was about to call the bank and have them 3 me a new credit card (信用卡) when a little voice inside my head said, “Whoa! 4 down. Someone must have picked it up. An average citizen, just like you. What would she or he do?” So I held back and I was going to give it a day. Then, early that evening, I was surfing the Internet for a new wallet when I heard a knock on the door. There was a man who I did not recognize. Could it be? After we exchanged greetings, he 5 me my wallet. He found it in the parking lot, thought of dropping it off at Joe’s Hardware but 6 to drive over and return it in person. He told me his 7 , but I was overcome with emotion and cannot be 100% sure. I think it was David. I offered him a cash reward but he refused. He was just a regular guy doing the right thing. David, thank you so very much for returning my wallet and reinforcing (强化) my belief that there are always some 8 and honest people around. 1．A．car B．home C．bank D．shop 2．A．broken B．empty C．stolen D．missing 3．A．lend B．send C．show D．pass 4．A．Come B．Cut C．Slow D．Look 5．A．handed B．found C．brought D．awarded 6．A．happened B．decided C．wondered D．hesitated 7．A．age B．hobby C．name D．job 8．A．confident B．courageous C．polite D．kind 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．B 4．C 5．A 6．B 7．C 8．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者丢失钱包后，从焦虑到冷静等待，最终一位名叫大卫的好心人主动上门归还钱包的故事。 1．句意：回到我的车旁时，我注意到下面有一只猫，便弯下腰去看看怎么回事。 根据下文“tore my car inside out”可知，作者后来彻底搜查了自己的车，说明他当时是在车的位置，因此第一空应填“car”。若用“home”，则与后文搜查车的行为矛盾；若用“bank”或“shop”，均无上下文支持。 2．句意：这时，我的钱包掉了——但我直到大约一小时后才注意到它丢了。 上文提到钱包掉下，下文直接说“I lost my wallet”，因此这里描述的是钱包丢失的状态，“missing”意为“丢失的”，符合语境。“broken”指破碎，“empty”指空的，“stolen”指被偷，但作者此时还不知道是被偷还是自己丢失，故“missing”最中性且准确。 3．句意：当这个事实被我接受后，我正要打电话给银行让他们给我寄一张新信用卡。 根据常识，丢失信用卡后需联系银行补办，银行会“寄送”新卡，“send”符合此意。“lend”意为借出，“show”为展示，“pass”为传递，均不合逻辑。 4．句意：这时我脑海里的一个小声音说：“哇！慢下来。一定有人捡到了。” 直接引语中劝自己别着急，应用“Slow down”表示“放慢节奏、冷静”。“Come down”下来，“Cut down”削减，“Look down”向下看，均与语境不符。后文“So I held back”也印证了作者在克制自己。 5．句意：我们互相问候之后，他把我的钱包递给了我。 根据上文，男子敲门并归还钱包，此处描述具体动作，“handed”意为“递”，符合当面交还的情景。“found”强调找到，但动作是归还；“brought”带来，虽可，但不如“handed”准确；“awarded”授予，与钱包无关。 6．句意：他在停车场里找到了它，原本打算把它送到乔的五金店去，但最终决定亲自开车过去把它归还回去。 “thought of…”表示原本的想法，后文用“but”转折，说明他最终做了另一种选择，“decided to”表示“决定做某事”，符合逻辑。“happened”发生，“wondered”想知道，“hesitated”犹豫，若用“hesitated”则需接“to do”表示犹豫做某事，但此处语义应为最终决定，故排除。 7．句意：他告诉我他的名字，但我激动得不能100%确定。 下文提到“I think it was David”，说明对方告知的是姓名，因此填“name”。“age”“hobby”“job”均与后文猜测名字无关 8．句意：感谢你归还我的钱包，并强化了我的信念，即周围总有一些善良和诚实的人。 空格与“honest”并列，共同修饰“people”，需填褒义形容词。“kind”意为“善良的”，常与“honest”连用，符合语境。“confident”自信，“courageous”勇敢，“polite”礼貌，虽均为褒义，但此处强调内在品德，且“kind”更贴合助人行为。 Do Something for Yourself As a little boy, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday 1 at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to parlors (客厅) neat as a pin that seemed to whisper (低声说), “Not to be touched!” I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I’d wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the property. My parents would never 2 . The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and crumbling. Still, my desire to climb across those walls grew so strong. One spring afternoon, I 3 up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after dinner. “I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls,” I said hesitantly (犹豫地). Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stonewalls?” 4 , a chorus (齐声) went up from the women in the room. “Heavens, no!” they cried. “You’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too 5 ; the reply was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s voice. “Hold on just a minute,” I heard him say, “Let the boy climb the stonewalls. He has to learn to do things for himself.” “Scoot (疾走),” he said to me with a wink (眨眼), “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I 6 those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my 7 . I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.” Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my 8 to children at the end of almost every visit, “There’s only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are.” 1．A．mornings B．afternoons C．evenings D．nights 2．A．discuss B．care C．decide D．agree 3．A．got B．hurried C．made D．gave 4．A．Happily B．Immediately C．Slowly D．Sadly 5．A．afraid B．worried C．pleased D．disappointed 6．A．climbed B．watched C．crossed D．jumped 7．A．journey B．parade C．adventure D．invention 8．A．warning B．reply C．message D．order 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．A 4．B 5．D 6．A 7．C 8．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者童年获得爷爷鼓励坚持做自己的经历，长大后他也把这个道理传递给更多孩子。 1．句意：小时候，我最喜欢在宾夕法尼亚西部爷爷的农场度过周日下午。 根据“I can still remember one afternoon”可知，后文回忆爬墙经历以下午为时间背景，结合全文语境，作者习惯周日下午在农场玩耍，应用afternoons。mornings“早上”、evenings“晚上”和nights“晚上”逻辑不符。 2．句意：我的父母永远不会同意。 根据后文大人说“Heavens, no!”和“You’ll hurt yourself!”可知，父母担心危险，不会同意他爬石墙，应用agree。discuss“讨论”、care“在意”、decide“决定”不符合句意。 3．句意：一个春天的下午，我鼓起全部勇气走进客厅，大人们吃过晚饭都聚在那里。 此处为“get up...courage”，固定搭配，表示“鼓起勇气”，应用got。hurried“匆忙”、made“制作”、gave“给”搭配不当。 4．句意：立刻，房间里的女人们齐声反对。 根据上下文，作者刚提出请求，大家马上就出声阻止，应用Immediately“立刻”。Happily“开心地”、Slowly“慢慢地”、Sadly“难过地”不符合语境。 5．句意：我并没有太失望。 根据“the reply was just as I’d expected”可知，结果和预料一样，所以不感到失望，应用disappointed。afraid“害怕的”、worried“担心的”和pleased“高兴的”逻辑不通。 6．句意：在接下来的两个半小时里，我爬了那些古老的石墙，度过了我一生中最愉快的时光。 前文一直提到“climb the stonewalls”，此处对应前文，应用climbed。watched“观看”、crossed“穿过”和jumped“跳”不符合动作描述，故排除。 7．句意：后来我去找爷爷，告诉他我的冒险经历。 根据前文可知，爬石墙对小男孩来说是一次冒险，应用adventure。journey“旅行”、parade“游行”和invention“发明”不符合文意。 8．句意：这些年来发生了变化，但有一件事是不变的：我在几乎每次节目结束时给孩子们的信息。 根据“There’s only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are.”可知，后文是一句鼓励的话，属于传递的信息、寄语，应用message。warning“警告”、reply“回复”和order“命令”，这几个用词的情感与内容均不符。 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 The Right Choice An old man was standing by the road, selling watermelons.

In 2002, I finished college with great enthusiasm and hoped to become a sports announcer, which was my biggest dream since childhood. I went to Chicago, the city I had been looking forward to, and visited every radio station one by one with my resume (简历) in hand. But 3 , I was turned down again and again. Each “no” made my heart sink a little. A kind woman at one famous station felt sorry for me and explained that big stations usually didn’t hire someone inexperienced. She 4 me to try smaller stations in my hometown, where I might get more chances. Back in Dixon, my father mentioned a local store needed a sports-minded worker. I applied for it eagerly, but I wasn’t chosen, either. I felt so frustrated that I wanted to give up my dream. Once again, my mother 5 me, “Everything happens for the best.” Her words gave me a little courage. This time I tried WOC Radio in Iowa. The director, Peter, said they already had an announcer. I walked out, feeling completely hopeless and tears almost came to my eyes. While waiting for the elevator, I heard Peter call me back. He asked about my football 6 and had me broadcast a made-up game. Happy with what he heard, he offered me the job on the spot. On my way home, I 7 my mother’s words clearly: “If you carry on, something good will happen.

I decided to make the day 1 , so I baked cupcakes for the party and decorated them to look like soft sheep by using some candies. “Yummy!” My sister Indi said with a laugh, quickly stealing a candy. “That’s enough, Indi! I need those for my sheep!” “Do real sheep eat these?” “They’re just for making the 2 look cute!” I laughed too. Soon, Indi and my brother Tex joined in. They added so many candies that their cupcakes looked more like strange animals than my sheep. “Time to go now,” Dad announced. But things didn’t go 3 as usual. First, Tex couldn’t find his shoes. Then Mom realized she’d left her wallet at home. Halfway to Aunt Jen’s, Indi suddenly needed a bathroom. We had to take a long way to find one.

To me, being connected was more important than being present. So, you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for my family vacation that year. “This year,” my dad said, “We are going camping!” His excitement was met with a disappointing sigh (叹气). 2 , he wasn’t upset. The views during the trip were amazing, but none of those mattered to me. My mind was on my phone. I remembered the first time I looked up was for something shocking—my phone had no service. My dad said that it would be 3 until we returned home. I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world. I went to bed angry that night. But something 4 when I awoke in the morning. Instead of immediately burying my head in my phone, I focused on something else: my surroundings (周围环境). As my dad and I walked the trails (小路), I felt the weight of tons of stress off my shoulders. I realized being 5 to nature made me focus more on myself. I let my mind speak to me and listened to my feelings. I had been so focused on staying connected that I hadn’t been hearing my own 6 . That was 15 years ago, and I carry that 7 to this day. When I received my first work email,  I understood the reason why my dad chose a campsite with no access to technology. In a world that asks for more connectivity, the need to check up your cell phone becomes stronger. Having my own time is nearly impossible when I can be 8 at any time of day or night. So, I need to work harder. Whenever I feel my inner self is slipping away, I follow my dad’s guidance. I pack up the tent and drive until my phone shows those two magic words: “no service”. 1．A．wished for B．applied for C．lived on D．learned from 2．A．However B．Besides C．Therefore D．Otherwise 3．A．mobile B．private C．missing D．useless 4．A．appeared B．ended C．changed D．formed 5．A．close B．blind C．similar D．new 6．A．contacts B．parents C．thoughts D．sighs 7．A．dream B．lesson C．stressor D．trial 8．A．appreciated B．convinced C．recognized D．connected 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．C 5．A 6．C 7．B 8．D 【导语】本文讲述了作者曾沉迷手机，一次无信号的露营经历让他意识到亲近自然、关注自我的重要性，至今仍以此为鉴寻找内心宁静。 1．句意：整个夏天我都依赖着那部手机。 wished for希望；applied for申请；lived on依赖；learned from从……学习。根据“a cell phone”以及后文描述可知，作者整个夏天都依赖手机，故选C。 2．句意：然而，他并没有感到沮丧。 However然而；Besides此外；Therefore因此；Otherwise否则。根据“His excitement was met with a disappointing sigh”以及“he wasn’t upset”可知，前后是转折关系，故选A。 3．句意：我爸爸说在我们回家之前，手机都会没用。 mobile移动的；private私人的；missing失踪的；useless无用的。根据“my phone had no service”可知，手机没有信号，所以是没用的，故选D。 4．句意：但是当我早上醒来时，有些事情改变了。 appeared出现；ended结束；changed改变；formed形成。根据“Instead of immediately burying my head in my phone, I focused on something else”可知，作者不再专注于手机，而是关注其他事情，所以有些事情改变了，故选C。 5．句意：我意识到亲近大自然让我更关注自己。 close亲近的；blind盲的；similar相似的；new新的。根据“to nature made me focus more on myself”以及后文描述可知，亲近大自然让作者更关注自己，故选A。 6．句意：我一直专注于保持联系，以至于没有听到自己的想法。 contacts联系人；parents父母；thoughts想法；sighs叹气。根据“I let my mind speak to me and listened to my feelings”可知，作者之前没有听到自己的想法，故选C。 7．句意：那是15年前的事了，我至今仍记得这个教训。 dream梦想；lesson教训；stressor压力源；trial试验。根据“That was 15 years ago”以及后文描述可知，这是作者从那次经历中学到的教训，故选B。 8．句意：当我在白天或晚上的任何时候都可能被联系到时，拥有自己的时间几乎是不可能的。 appreciated感激；convinced确信；recognized认出；connected联系。根据“In a world that asks for more connectivity”可知，在这个要求更多连接的世界里，作者随时可能被联系到，故选D。 Rob made ends meet for his family as a handyman, doing odd jobs around the area.

And I thought that this was the perfect chance to get the recipe (制作方法), and that I could actually have a time to 2 with him. Since then, I would go to my aunt’s early on the morning of New Year’s Day, and we’d make the cake together happily. I was amazed that Grandpa could peel an apple in one rind. And we’d mix everything and put it into the oven. Once the cake was done, the house would immediately smell like apples. But as I got older, so did Grandpa. One New Year’s Day, as I was taking out the apples from the shopping bag 3 as usual, he looked at me and said, “Sophia, what are you doing?” I was shocked.

I retraced (原路返回) my steps, asked around and tore my car inside out. Nothing. I lost my wallet. After this fact sank in, I was about to call the bank and have them 3 me a new credit card (信用卡) when a little voice inside my head said, “Whoa! 4 down. Someone must have picked it up. An average citizen, just like you. What would she or he do?” So I held back and I was going to give it a day. Then, early that evening, I was surfing the Internet for a new wallet when I heard a knock on the door. There was a man who I did not recognize. Could it be?

Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to parlors (客厅) neat as a pin that seemed to whisper (低声说), “Not to be touched!” I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I’d wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the property. My parents would never 2 . The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and crumbling. Still, my desire to climb across those walls grew so strong. One spring afternoon, I 3 up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after dinner. “I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls,” I said hesitantly (犹豫地). Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stonewalls?” 4 , a chorus (齐声) went up from the women in the room. “Heavens, no!” they cried. “You’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too 5 ; the reply was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s voice. “Hold on just a minute,” I heard him say, “Let the boy climb the stonewalls. He has to learn to do things for himself.” “Scoot (疾走),” he said to me with a wink (眨眼), “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I 6 those old walls and had the time of my life.

His clothes were old and his face looked tired under the hot sun. David, a 16-year-old boy, was walking home after school. He felt the money in his pocket—just enough to buy a new notebook he needed. As he got closer, he saw the man’s 1 look. No one stopped to buy his watermelons. David’s heart felt heavy. He knew the man needed to sell them to make a living. David had a 2 inside him. Should he buy a watermelon to help the man, or should he get the notebook? The notebook was important for his studies, but the man’s situation seemed more pressing (紧迫的) at that moment. Finally, David 3 to buy the largest watermelon he could afford. The man’s face lit up with a grateful smile. “Thank you, young man. You have a kind heart,” he said. David felt warm inside, though 4 the huge watermelon home was not easy. A week later, on the first day of the new term, David’s teacher announced (宣布) a special project and divided the class into groups. To David’s surprise, the old man’s grandson, Leo, was in his group. Leo was new to the school and felt a little 5 . When Leo found out that David was the one who helped his grandfather, his eyes widened with happy surprise. He immediately felt comfortable with David.

While my classmates had long, silky hair down their backs, my hair was short and curly. I was quite 1 . “Your hair doesn’t embarrass you. It is beautiful,” my mother would try to comfort me. However, her 2 did little to calm me. Why couldn’t I have long hair like everyone else? I no longer wanted to stand out. I wanted to 3 and be accepted. It wasn’t that I hated my hair, but rather I believed others did. I was afraid it would be regarded as ugly by my classmates. I also worried if they learned I wore extensions (接发), I would be 4 . This was an ongoing struggle that I kept secret. At school, I faced lots of questions about my hair. “Does your hair even grow? Are those extensions or your real hair?” In tenth grade, I 5 . I realized I had two choices. I could either believe my classmates were truly 6 or consider the questions as judgments. Actually, their 7 didn’t matter. I could choose not to base my happiness on what I believed others thought of me, but on my own 8 . Over the next two years, I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and engaged in various school or social activities, where I was surrounded by different people. Wearing my 9 hair, I made it my mission to stand out. I developed into a more confident person. I no longer live my life limited by what I believe others think of me.

Her calm voice and wise saying became my warm comfort during those hard and dark times, and I slowly learned to trust that every disappointment might 2 something good waiting for me in the future. In 2002, I finished college with great enthusiasm and hoped to become a sports announcer, which was my biggest dream since childhood. I went to Chicago, the city I had been looking forward to, and visited every radio station one by one with my resume (简历) in hand. But 3 , I was turned down again and again. Each “no” made my heart sink a little. A kind woman at one famous station felt sorry for me and explained that big stations usually didn’t hire someone inexperienced. She 4 me to try smaller stations in my hometown, where I might get more chances. Back in Dixon, my father mentioned a local store needed a sports-minded worker. I applied for it eagerly, but I wasn’t chosen, either. I felt so frustrated that I wanted to give up my dream. Once again, my mother 5 me, “Everything happens for the best.” Her words gave me a little courage. This time I tried WOC Radio in Iowa. The director, Peter, said they already had an announcer. I walked out, feeling completely hopeless and tears almost came to my eyes. While waiting for the elevator, I heard Peter call me back. He asked about my football 6 and had me broadcast a made-up game. Happy with what he heard, he offered me the job on the spot. On my way home, I 7 my mother’s words clearly: “If you carry on, something good will happen.

So when Aunt Jen invited us to her yearly spring farm party, I was really excited. I decided to make the day 1 , so I baked cupcakes for the party and decorated them to look like soft sheep by using some candies. “Yummy!” My sister Indi said with a laugh, quickly stealing a candy. “That’s enough, Indi! I need those for my sheep!” “Do real sheep eat these?” “They’re just for making the 2 look cute!” I laughed too. Soon, Indi and my brother Tex joined in. They added so many candies that their cupcakes looked more like strange animals than my sheep. “Time to go now,” Dad announced. But things didn’t go 3 as usual. First, Tex couldn’t find his shoes. Then Mom realized she’d left her wallet at home. Halfway to Aunt Jen’s, Indi suddenly needed a bathroom. We had to take a long way to find one. Dad then tried a new back road, but it only led us farther away. As we were in the middle of nowhere, our car started making a strange noise and stopped. “ 4 won’t come for at least an hour,” Mom said, sounding tired. “Now we’ll miss the whole party!” Tex complained. Dad smiled and pointed to a field full of colorful flowers. “Why not have our own picnic here?” At first, we weren’t excited about it, but as we spread out the blanket and started eating, something 5 happened. A huge butterfly gently landed on Indi’s knee. Nearby, two small rabbits jumped across the grass, happily eating. Suddenly, we heard a loud rustling, and hundreds of birds shot up from the trees, flying into the sky in huge circles above us. “Wow!” I cried. “It’s like 6 !” “Migration (迁徙) season,” Dad said. “These birds travel through California every spring—millions of them!” We never 7 it to Aunt Jen’s farm, but that didn’t matter. Sitting in that field, enjoying my cupcakes under the open sky, I understood something important: when things don’t work out, disappointments may 8 unexpected wonders.

He spent most of his free time there and enjoyed playing football very much. One sunny Saturday, his mom asked him to help plant some vegetables. Tom felt 1 about the idea. To him, gardening was all hard work—so different from the excitement of soccer. “Just try it,” his mother said kindly. With a sigh (叹气), Tom 2 to start. They got some small pots, soil, and seeds. Tom worked 3 , eager to finish it and get back to his soccer ball. He dug the holes too deep, dropped in the seeds without much thought, and often forgot to water them. Days passed, but nothing grew in the pots. He felt disappointed and ready to give up. His mother noticed his low 4 . “Seeds take time,” she said softly. “You need to be patient.” Encouraged by his mother’s words, Tom 5 to try one more time. This time, he read the instructions on the seed packet carefully. He learned that seeds should just be planted in shallow soil, watered a little each day, and placed in the sun. Tom did exactly as it said, and slowly, caring for the pots became part of his morning. Then, one bright morning, he saw a small green sprout coming out of the soil. Tom watched with surprise and 6 . From then on, he took even better care of the plants. He checked them every day, removed the weeds, and watched them grow. Weeks later, the first tomato turned red. Tom picked it gently, feeling proud. He shared it with his family. “You see,” his mother smiled, “ 7 brings good things.” From this experience, Tom learned something important: to do well at anything—whether planting vegetables or playing soccer—you need to be patient, to care, and to never give up.

Inside were several pairs of needles and some soft balls of blue yarn. “Can you teach me to knit (编织), Mum? Like you used to?” I asked, holding up the needles. Mum 1 and she said with a smile, “It can be a good lesson.” We sat together by the window. “First, hold the needle like this. Then, make the yarn go around it.” Step by step, Mum 2 me to knit. She made it look easy. “Now, it’s your turn,” she said, and handed me the needles and the yarn. But when I tried, the yarn kept falling off the needles. Since I couldn’t get it right, I pulled the yarn carelessly, and soon a knot (结) formed. I looked at Mum. Her smile was still there. “Here, not like that,” she said, gently taking my hands to 3 me. But her help just made me more nervous. After I failed another time, Mum quietly stood up. “I’ll be right back,” she said, walking away calmly, as if leaving me with the problem on purpose. Sitting alone with the blue mess, I felt 4 . For a moment, I almost gave up. But then, I looked at the yarn again. Slowly, I began to pick at it, one loop (圈) at a time. It was 5 but I was trying hard. A few minutes later, Mum returned. “You’re fixing it yourself,” she said, sounding a bit surprised. I finally 6 to fix the knot. Mum just sat quietly, letting me try one stitch (一针), then another, at my own slow pace (节奏). By evening, I had only knitted a few rows, but it was my work. Mum put her arm around my shoulders. “I’m proud of you,” she said. “You didn’t give up.” At that moment, I understood what Mum meant by “a good 7 ”—it wasn’t just about knitting. It was about the 8 to solve problems, and the presence of someone who believes you can. 1．A．left B．nodded C．waited D．doubted 2．A．reminded B．expected C．invited D．taught 3．A．encourage B．warm C．follow D．correct 4．A．disappointed B．surprised C．excited D．scared 5．A．challenging B．interesting C．dangerous D．meaningful 6．A．promised B．managed C．remembered D．hurried 7．A．lesson B．game C．story D．task 8．A．hope B．courage C．patience D．confidence 阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 Last weekend, I took Rio, my energetic 3-year-old grandson who couldn’t sit still for a moment, to the park so he could run around and see the duck pond. My goal was to get him outside for a while, let him 1 off the energy, and teach him about the ducks. But he had no goals. Three-year-olds don’t need goals. That was the first of several lessons I learned that day. I had expected to be the teacher, but I had it 2 . My grandson helped me remember things we’re born knowing but forget in the journey of becoming an adult. Rio had a sense of wonder. As soon as we walked into the park, he looked up at the sky. It was a cold day, with pillow clouds floating across the sky, and he found 3 in watching them. I’d forgotten how magical clouds could be. His exploration was endless. He was always on the search for sticks. He knew that a stick could be used for many things. He scraped (刮擦) the ground with them, rapped a drumbeat with them on trees and benches, and 4 them in the air like a flag. No need for toys or electronic devices, unlike at home. Just sticks. There were a few kids playing in the park with a parent and people walking dogs. Rio said hi to everyone and stuck out his hand for a high-five with a few 4 to 5-year-olds. He tried to 5 conversations with great passion. It was clear he didn’t care what people looked like, how old they were, or whether they said hello first. No 6 . Just a sincere desire (渴望) to connect. My most remarkable change from our hour in the park was that Rio was fully 7 no matter what he was doing. He never asked what time it was, when we were leaving, or what we were going to do next. He was, every second we were there, completely and totally in the 8 . I wish I could be.

I was so hungry that I rushed to the 1 when the school bell rang. Minutes later, I stood in front of the counter (收银台) with a plate full of food. “Three dollars,” said the lunch lady. I reached my hand into my bag and felt 2 . The bag was empty. I put the bag on the floor to 3 the money again. As I finally found the money wasn’t there, I could feel the worry washing over me. Feeling quite 4 , I finally told the lunch lady my situation. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw a boy walk quickly past, but I paid no attention to him. “I’m sorry. I don’t have any money with me.” “Honey, someone paid for your lunch. You’re good.” I missed the chance to 5 the boy. He didn’t even know me, but he paid for my lunch. Three dollars might be a small amount of money, but I couldn’t 6 anyone doing something so nice for me. A month later, on my way home, I saw an elderly woman struggling (费力) with heavy bags. I suddenly thought of the boy who 7 me lunch. “Excuse me, madam, do you need help?” I’ll never forget her 8 as I rushed forward to lend her a hand.

Are rice cookers only for cooking rice? Are microwaves just for heating milk? My sister Amy and I believed these common kitchen tools could do far more—with a little creativity. Since Mom left for a three-month training program in another city, Dad has had to rush home from work every day to cook dinner for us. We could clearly see how 1 he was, especially on days when he got stuck in heavy traffic, returning home exhausted (精疲力尽的). One Thursday evening, he called us with worry: “Oh, no, it’s already six!” he 2 . “The traffic is a nightmare, and we won’t eat until 8: 30!” After hanging up the phone, Amy and I exchanged a determined look. We decided to take action. Forty minutes later, Dad arrived home, looking ready to give up and take us out for fast food. But when he opened the door, he was 3 : The table had been set with three bowls of rice, a bowl of tomato and egg drop soup, and a plate of shredded chicken (鸡丝). “Did you two really cook all this?” he asked in 4 . “We used our heads—no stove required!” I replied with a smile. “Really?” he repeated, still surprised. As we ate, we 5 our little experiment: we cooked rice first, then added some tomatoes, beaten eggs and a little salt to the rice cooker to simmer soup. For the chicken, we shredded chicken legs, seasoned (调味) them lightly, and heated them in the microwave for some minutes. The whole meal took just 30 minutes, with no mess at all. “This is just as delicious as my traditional 6 ,” Dad said honestly. “Maybe even better!” Later, I realized we’d solved a small daily problem with 7 . To parents, our way might seem unconventional, but if a good result—a warm meal, a less stressed dad—really counts, does the “right” way matter? Maybe parents should let kids be creative and think outside the box. Our “unexpected” method 8 wonders. Now Dad no longer has to rush home after work, and we can enjoy dinner together without worries.

Today was no different. Cara received her mother’s 1 and kisses, and walked to her classroom. The first class was math. Cara looked at her worksheet and groaned. “More word problems!” She was terrible at word problems. But she remembered her mother’s first word of wisdom: Work hard. Cara thought that part of working hard was asking for help when she needed it. So when the teacher asked, “Any questions?” She 2 her hand. The teacher kindly reminded Cara of various methods to try. By the end of class, Cara solved all the problems. It was a 3 moment for her. Check one. Two to go. At lunch, Cara headed for the table with her friends and took a seat. She looked around the dining hall and saw the new student, who was 4 sitting alone with her head down as groups of students were laughing and talking nearby. Seeing this, Cara remembered her mother’s second piece of advice: Be kind. So Cara 5 up her lunch, said bye to her friends, and went to the new girl. “Hi! I’m Cara. Can I sit with you?” Cara said. “Sure!” said the new girl. “I’m Vanessa. Thanks for sitting with me.” “No problem! I remember what it’s like to be new,” Cara replied cheerfully. The two girls happily ate and chatted. Check two. One to go. Soon it was break time. Cara introduced Vanessa to her friends. Suddenly, 6 came out of an open classroom window. “Dance party!” the girls cheered together. Cara looked on nervously. She wasn’t a great dancer. Then her mom’s voice 7 in her ears: Have fun. Cara moved one foot, then another, then twirled. She was dancing! More importantly, she was having fun! Check three. When Cara returned home from school, her mother asked, “How was your day?” “Great, 8 as always!” Cara replied cheerfully. “I worked hard. I was kind. And I had fun!” 1．A．gifts B．words C．excuses D．letters 2．A．raised B．hid C．shook D．dropped 3．A．silent B．difficult C．light D．common 4．A．joyfully B．sadly C．comfortably D．lazily 5．A．cleaned B．ate C．heated D．picked 6．A．smoke B．noise C．smell D．music 7．A．broke B．disappeared C．rang D．shouted 8．A．same B．stressful C．empty D．tiring Before I started high school my parents gave me the greatest gift any teenage boy could ask for: a cell phone. I 1 that phone all summer. To me, being connected was more important than being present. So, you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for my family vacation that year. “This year,” my dad said, “We are going camping!” His excitement was met with a disappointing sigh (叹气). 2 , he wasn’t upset. The views during the trip were amazing, but none of those mattered to me. My mind was on my phone. I remembered the first time I looked up was for something shocking—my phone had no service. My dad said that it would be 3 until we returned home. I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world. I went to bed angry that night. But something 4 when I awoke in the morning. Instead of immediately burying my head in my phone, I focused on something else: my surroundings (周围环境). As my dad and I walked the trails (小路), I felt the weight of tons of stress off my shoulders. I realized being 5 to nature made me focus more on myself. I let my mind speak to me and listened to my feelings. I had been so focused on staying connected that I hadn’t been hearing my own 6 . That was 15 years ago, and I carry that 7 to this day. When I received my first work email,  I understood the reason why my dad chose a campsite with no access to technology. In a world that asks for more connectivity, the need to check up your cell phone becomes stronger. Having my own time is nearly impossible when I can be 8 at any time of day or night. So, I need to work harder. Whenever I feel my inner self is slipping away, I follow my dad’s guidance. I pack up the tent and drive until my phone shows those two magic words: “no service”. 1．A．wished for B．applied for C．lived on D．learned from 2．A．However B．Besides C．Therefore D．Otherwise 3．A．mobile B．private C．missing D．useless 4．A．appeared B．ended C．changed D．formed 5．A．close B．blind C．similar D．new 6．A．contacts B．parents C．thoughts D．sighs 7．A．dream B．lesson C．stressor D．trial 8．A．appreciated B．convinced C．recognized D．connected Rob made ends meet for his family as a handyman, doing odd jobs around the area. But those odd jobs quickly dried up due to a financial crisis. Then he lost his apartment. This 1 his family into renting a motel room. “We have to pay rent every day, and I’m running 2 on money,” Rob said. So, the 3 handyman took to the streets with a sign that read: “Handyman, 25 years exp., Need work.” Rob wasn’t asking for money or looking for a handout but rather for an opportunity to make money. Rob stood on the side of the highway holding his sign for a week. The temperatures were scorching (灼热的) but he 4 the hot sun each day in the hopes of finding work. Someone took a photo of him and shared it on social media! Kyle, the owner of Greenstar Home Remodeling, saw Rob’s photo online. And he offered the handyman a chance to help him get back on his feet. Kyle brought Rob on to help with some demolition (拆除的) work. Rob didn’t even ask how much the job paid. He just showed up. “I 5 out as a painter, and then I became a landscaper—roofing—whatever I could make money at,” the handyman explained. Rob 6 intends to put his all into working for Kyle for as long as Kyle has jobs for him. And after seeing Rob’s dedication and 7 , Kyle is willing to do all he can to help the man build a brighter future.
