专题02 阅读理解 记叙文 主题01 人与社会 Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·福建德化二中·期中） Nothing makes our hearts hurt more than losing a loved one. But sometimes sadness has a beautiful way of bringing people together. Four years ago, Kate had to say goodbye to her father. But the 23-year-old girl has kept sending messages to her fathers old phone number every day. “My father never missed a school dance and my games, and he would give me long talks. He took the time to love me and show me what happiness looks like,” Kate said. During the years since her father passed away, Kate has found comfort in sending messages to her fathers old phone number. Certainly, she never hoped to get an answer back, but the day before the fourth anniversary (周年纪念日) of her father’s death, one finally came. She has sent her father a message telling him everything she has done successfully. She explained that she had won her fight against cancer and finished college successfully. “It’s been four years since I lost you, and not a day goes by without missing you,” she wrote. “I just want to say I love you and that I miss you.” She didn’t realize that someone had been receiving her messages. A man named Brad using her father’s phone number finally decided to tell Kate how much her messages meant to him. “I lost my daughter in a car accident in August 2014, and your messages have kept me living.” No one is alone in their pain! Life can throw very difficult things on our way, so we need to thank every kind person who has comforted us. 1. Kate was ________ years old when her father died.

Passage 2 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州一中·期中） Grammy Awards don’t only go to the people who produce and perform songs. This year the 2024 Music Educator Award went to Annie Ray, a music teacher at a high school in Virginia, for her efforts to make music accessible to all students, particularly those with disabilities. However, in the award ceremony, she gave the credit to her students. Inspired mostly by the diversity of the Annandale community including over 60 countries, Ray created an orchestra for students with severe intellectual (智力的) and developmental disabilities. The orchestra is about much more than just making music. Ray says the program gives students a chance to develop their collaboration skills, make mistakes and learn the art of refining something. And they teach her a lot in return — more than she could ever teach them. She says her students completely changed her educational philosophy and approach. “I believe they have a really powerful message to share with everyone, and especially with how we approach music education and what that looks like,” she added. Ray says the success was especially meaningful because not many people understand what exactly music educators do in the classroom or how much their work matters. While her administration is supportive, another challenge is that her school “desperately” needs new instruments. Ray says she will use some of her grant money to buy more. Ray plans to put some of the money towards an ongoing scholarship for students who want to pursue music when they graduate. She knows of several who want to go into music education themselves, which she finds especially rewarding. “It is a hard profession, but it’s one that is really, deeply personal and satisfying,” Ray said. “And there’s nothing else like it.” 1. Why did Ray win the 2024 Music Educator Award? A. Because of her pioneering teaching philosophy. B. Because of her great musical talent. C. Because of her outstanding education contribution. D. Because of her extraordinary personal style. 2. What is the orchestra eager for? A. New instruments. B. Support from school. C. Students’ participation. D. Money from the government. 3. Which of the following is satisfying to Ray? A. More students majoring in music. B. More graduates into teaching music. C. More awards for music educators. D. More parents joining the orchestra. Passage 3 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州高级中学·期中） My dearest granddaughter, By the time you read this, I’ll be gone. But I want to share with you the story that shaped our family’s legacy (遗产) —a tale of gratitude that echoed (流传) through generations. It was 1955, and I was just a young girl of 12. Times were hard, and our family struggled to make ends meet. One particularly hard winter, we had nothing left but a few potatoes and a little candle. That’s when a knock on the door changed everything. Mrs. Thompson, our neighbor, stood there with a basket full of food. “I’m thankful for good neighbors,” she said simply, pressing the basket into my mother’s hands before hurrying away. That night, as we enjoyed our unexpected meal, my father declared, “When we have enough, we must remember this kindness and pass it on.” Years passed, and our fortunes improved. True to his word, my father always found ways to help others, saying it was an echo of Mrs. Thompson’ s kindness. I watched as he slipped groceries onto the porches (门廊) of struggling families, secretly paid for children’s school supplies, and volunteered at the local shelter. One day, while volunteering, he met a young man named Jack —your grandfather. Jack had fallen on hard times but was determined to turn his life around. My father took him under his wing, helping him find a job and a place to live. Jack, filled with gratitude, threw himself into his work and studies. He often said, “I’m just echoing the kindness shown to me.” It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him. As our family grew, your grandfather and I made sure to keep the echo alive. We taught your mother, and her siblings, the importance of being thankful and paying kindness forward. Now, my dear Emma, I pass this story to you. Our family’s echo of thankfulness has touched countless lives over the years. Some we know about, like the scholarship fund your mother started, but many more we’ ll never know. Remember, gratitude is not just a feeling —it’s an action. It has the power to create ripples(涟漪) that turn into waves, touching lives far beyond our own. With all my love, Grandma 1. How did the family feel about Mrs. Thompson’s action? A. Puzzled. B. Surprised. C. Grateful. D. Skeptical. 2. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The way Grandma helped others. B. Grandma watched her father helping others. C. Over the years, my family’s life has greatly improved. D. Mrs. Thompson’s kindness had a profound effect on Grandma’s father. 3. By saying “It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him.” in Paragraph 4, grandma means ________. A. she fell in love with Jack B. Jack was a determined person C. Jack helped her with her work and studies D. She could feel Jack’s gratitude and determination. 4. Grandma wrote this letter was to ________. A. recall her life B. point out the importance of being thankful C. tell Emma the history of the family D. pass on a family tradition of echoing the kindness 5. What message does the letter convey? A. How the family legacy is formed. B. People should learn to be grateful and echo the kindness. C. Mrs. Thompson’s kindness saved the family. D. When life is rich, we must remember the difficulties. Passage 4 （24-25学年高一下·福建永春二中·期中） I met a beautiful soul yesterday. I went to work with my computer to a local cafe so that I could have dinner there. It was raining a bit this time and also I was among people. Sometimes when you work from home all day this is in itself a treat. And the magic of connection sometimes happens — a smile, someone offering you the newspaper, a short conversation with the staff, a peace dove flying past and lots of possibilities for love and kindness. Well, magic did happen. I heard a man who was speaking with difficulty and very loud. I noticed he could not speak so clearly and he had some kind of impairment (损伤). As often happened, people looked at him-or avoided doing so-and then-as if embarrassed or afraid — looked down. In these cases I try to do the opposite. I imagined a person in these circumstances would want to feel included. So I decided to deliberately look at him and smile. It was an instant! He looked at me, smiled and immediately said hello. With a combination of spoken and body language he asked if he could approach me. I agreed. He introduced me to his friend who taught sign language online and explained that they were both deaf, after which he even told me about his wife and how he loved teaching. I apologized for not knowing sign language and hoped I’d learnt. We still managed to have a beautiful conversation which made us all very happy. I’m sure we’ll meet again to experience the magic of being and being with others. 1. Why did the author go to the cafe yesterday? A. To find someone beautiful. B. To work and eat something. C. To ask for a latest newspaper. D. To have a short talk with others. 2. How did the author react to the man with speaking difficulty? A. He pretended not to see him. B. He had a joke with him. C. He looked and smiled at him. D. He laughed at him like others. 3. What’s the most important to a disabled person? A. Being treated in a normal way. B. Accepting help from people around. C. Avoiding the embarrassments in life. D. Having a friend in the same situation. 4. What could be the best title for the text? A. A Special Cafe B. A Broken Heart C. Power of Sign Language D. Magic at the Cafe 主题02 人与自我 Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·福建熹海中学·期中） Jiang Shumei wasn’t educated as a child, learning her first Chinese character at the age of 60. Now, the 87-year-old grandmother is the proud author of six books.

Passage 3 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州十一中·期中） An allergy (过敏) made Clare give up her job training racehorses, but she has now created a new career for herself as a best-selling author. Jane interviews her. In the large field which would normally contain horses, there are three big dogs running wildly around. As I talk to Clare and her husband, Daniel, he says, “I’m not allowing Clare to have anything larger than those dogs. ” It’s said with a smile, but persuading one of Britain’s most successful racehorse trainers to give up her work can’t have been easy. Clare explains her situation: I’d been ill for some time, and then I discovered that I had actually developed an allergy to horses. Giving up training horses after so long was a horrible decision to take. But it wasn’t as if I needed the money any more. And at least it allowed me to try writing on a full-time basis — I’d been writing in my free time for years! Clare has made a new career as a novelist ever since. Clare’s son Tim has now taken over her training business. Despite the fact that Tim’s only been doing this for two years, Clare announces proudly that he’s already had several winners. “But racehorse owners have high expectations. Keeping them happy is not an easy task, ” she says. “It is something you really have to work at and I just hope he can manage. ” Clare says she is trying to put her life in horse-racing behind her, but in the next breath, she’s talking about a young horse at Tim’s stables (马厩). She often relieves herself: “my books are selling well. We do need to sort things out better, though, so we have time to take holidays, and enjoy our hard-earned money! ” However, as hard as she tries, there is obviously a huge gap in Clare’s life that has yet to be filled. 1. What do we learn about Clare in the first paragraph? A. She likes to follow her husband’s advice. B. She was relieved to begin a less stressful job. C. She is still worried about her family’s financial security. D. She accepted that a change of career would be beneficial. 2. What is Clare’s attitude to her son’s situation? A.

Passage 4 （24-25学年高一下·福建莆田华侨中学·期中） A few days ago I visited my grandfather in hospital. He has Alzhemier’s—a disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse gradually. I thought I was prepared to see him. I knew chances were slim that he’d actually recognize me. He didn’t. As a matter of fact, he had no idea that he even had grandchildren. But he was excited that somebody came to visit him. I tried to explain to him who I was. But after he told me multiple times that he didn’t have grandchildren, I gave up. And my heart broke into a million little pieces. We sat in silence for a little while, before he told me to call my grandma. This was the first time I had tried so hard to hold back tears. My grandma died four years ago and he didn’t remember. He thought she was stuck on her way to pick him up. My grandpa used to be a strong, hard-working man. He was the person you turned to when you needed your car fixed, your tires changed or something heavy to be carried. Sadly, that man left this world a long time ago, and left behind a man that is lost and scared. I want to help him. I want to make him feel better. I want to tell him about his old life, and how great it was. So I sat with him and I held his hand, and every once in a while I told him how good he looked and how much I liked the color of his shirt and how it brought out the blue in his eyes. I told him that my grandma was on her way whenever he asked about her, and I made sure the glass in his hand was always filled with water. I can’t take away his pain. I can’t help him remember. I can’t make the disease go away. All I can do is hold on to the memories—hold on for both of us. 1. Why was the author about to cry? A. Grandpa needed to be taken care of. B. Grandpa thought grandma still alive. C. Grandma died about four years ago. D. Grandma didn’t make it to the hospital. 2. Which of the following best describe the author? A. Considerate and patient. B. Reliable and energetic. C. Warm-hearted and plain. D. Strong-minded and generous. 3. What is the author’s purpose to write the passage? A. To show pity towards her grandpa. B. To record memories of her grandpa. C. To express deep love for her grandpa. D. To call on further study on Alzheimer’s. 主题03 人与自然 Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州三中·期中） My wife always wanted a Vizsla, so when we got the house, the garden and everything sorted, we did some research and found a lovely breeder (饲养员) based in Scotland. He was in charge of everything, so a few months go by and the next thing I know, we’ve got a puppy! I’ve grown up with animals all my life, and I’m so glad I have. I love the fact that I was never afraid of any animals. Although you do obviously have to be careful when introducing children to a dog they don’t know, because you don’t know how it’s going to behave, it always saddens me when I see children scared when they walk past Pedro. I think it’s great for kids to learn how to look after an animal. And obviously for us, as a family, it’s brilliant because we take Pedro for so many walks. It’s a bit of a family bonding experience getting out in the fresh air; taking Pedro for a walk multiple times a day is just really lovely. Meanwhile, the most rewarding, I think, is just seeing how amazing he is with the kids. He is so calm, so protective, so loving, and we are his world. I think the most challenging aspects with Pedro were when he was a puppy (小狗). He was pretty hard work. He was never aggressive, but he was quite bitey as puppies are, constantly pulling out your clothes and putting holes in them, which is very annoying. He chewed the furniture-my sofas are barely standing up; their wooden legs are almost in pieces. Obviously, the dog training in the house was quite stressful and his jumping at strangers in the park and running off was always quite scary. As a new puppy owner, you’re overloaded with advice from social media, magazines, other dog owners and friends, so finding a source of information you trust is so important and can be a real turning point. I know what it’s like to be bombarded with conflicting information, so I would have really welcomed Royal Canin’s “One in a Billion” platform as a new puppy owner. It’s a one-stop shop for new dog owners: a single source of credible information that is so helpful in navigating the early stages of your puppy’s life. 1. What do we know about the author? A. He is inexperienced in raising pets. B. He is unsupportive of his wife’s desire. C. He feels it a pity that children shy away from pets. D. He thinks one should be cautious about raising pets. 2. What does the author think of Pedro? A. Dangerous but loyal. B. Playful and gentle. C. Adorable but troublesome. D. Annoying and fierce. 3. What can we infer according to paragraph 4? A. Dogs are man’s best friends. B. It is worthless to have a dog. C. Puppies are unfriendly to humans. D. It is challenging to train a puppy. 4. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To recommend a reliable platform. B. To share a fun experience. C. To offer evidence for an argument. D. To advertise a practical product. Passage 2 （24-25学年高一下·福建台江·期中） The Spectacular Rescue on the Prairie On a freezing afternoon, the scenery of the vast prairie was literally breathtaking. The misty dusk made the distant mountains appear like a two-dimensional painting. A group of hikers, composed of a photographer, an elderly couple, and two dynamic teenagers, were anticipating the highlight of their trip — the peak of Blue Ridge. However, the weather took a dramatic turn. The sky grew darker, and a massive thunderstorm arose, swallowing the sunlight. As they proceeded alongside the shore of a small lake, one of the teenagers, Tom, slipped on the wet cobblestones and sprained his ankle. The swelling was so severe that he couldn’t stand. The group panicked, but the photographer, a former paramedic, acted urgently. He wrapped Tom’s ankle tightly with a piece of fabric from his backpack to ease the pain. Meanwhile, the elderly man tried to grab his phone to call for help, only to realize there was no signal. Desperate, they decided to send the two teenagers to seek assistance. The foggy conditions and the lack of clear paths made their progress slow. Just as hope seemed lost, they spotted a ranger’s cabin in the distance. The ranger, a humble man with a grizzly beard, immediately contacted the nearest hospital. An ambulance arrived shortly, its lights piercing through the mist like rays of hope. The rescue team, equipped with IV needles and other vital tools, examined Tom thoroughly. Despite the minor fractures, they assured the group he would recover. The ranger later explained that such incidents were not uncommon in the area, especially during unpredictable weather. His words conveyed a sense of calm, contrasting sharply with the earlier chaos. Reflecting on the ordeal (考验), the hikers felt a mix of relief and awe. The prairie, though beautiful, demanded respect. The experience bonded them deeply, and they left with a newfound appreciation for nature’s power and human resilience. 1. What caused Tom’s injury during the hike? A. Slipping on wet cobblestones. B. Being bitten by a mosquito. C. A sudden thunder strike. D. A loose backpack strap. 2. How did the photographer contribute to the rescue? A. He called the ambulance immediately. B. He used his medical skills to stabilize Tom. C. He guided the group to the ranger’s cabin. D. He took pictures to document the incident. 3. What is the main theme of the passage? A. The dangers of hiking in unpredictable weather. B. The importance of teamwork in emergencies. C. The beauty and risks of natural landscapes. D. The role of technology in modern rescues. 4. Which sentence best illustrates the group’s emotional state after the rescue? A. “The foggy conditions and the lack of clear paths made their progress slow.” B. “His words conveyed a sense of calm, contrasting sharply with the earlier chaos.” C. “The ranger, a humble man with a grizzly beard, immediately contacted the nearest hospital.” D. “The experience bonded them deeply, and they left with a newfound appreciation for nature’s power and human resilience.” 主题01 人与社会 Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·福建莆田五中·期中） Last summer, 17-year-old Li Mei from Chengdu stepped off the plane in Paris, carrying her beloved erhu - a traditional Chinese two-stringed instrument that was passed down from her grandmother. As part of a youth cultural exchange program, she had dreamed of this moment for years, yet the weight of representing her heritage in a foreign land left her palms sweaty. Little did she know that this trip would spark an extraordinary musical creation. During a workshop at a local art school, Li met Pierre, a French violinist who was fascinated by her instrument’s attractive sound. “It’s like the voice of ancient China,” he remarked with excitement, gently plucking (拨) the erhu’s strings. Inspired by each other’s music, they decided to mix the soulful melodies of the erhu with the dynamic range of the violin for a performance at the upcoming Bastille Day celebration. As they practiced in a sunlit studio overlooking the Seine, Li taught Pierre how to imitate raindrops with quick bow movements on the erhu, while Pierre showed her how to weave Western harmonies into the Chinese folk tune “Jasmine Flower.” The integration created a charming soundscape that neither had imagined possible. On the performance night, their piece “Silk Road Echoes” received thunderous applause. The audience were amazed at how the erhu’s sad tones danced with the violin’s vigorous melodies (旋律). What began as a summer experiment blossomed into lasting friendship and something far greater. Today, Li and Pierre co-teach virtual music classes, connecting students in Chengdu and Lyon through weekly “global jam sessions.” Their students cooperate on pieces that mix erhu with guitar or Peking opera with jazz. Li often tells her pupils, “Music has no borders; it’s a language that turns differences into harmonies.” When traditions meet with open hearts, they don’t conflict, they compose something entirely new. 1. Why did Li Mei bring her erhu to Paris? A. To share Chinese music culture. B. To give it to her friend as a present. C. To display it at a local studio. D. To teach students full-time. 2. What contributed to the lasting cooperation of Li Mei and Pierre? A. Their common and deep love for traditional Chinese music. B. Their successful performance and inspiration from each other’s music. C. The opportunity to participate in the Bastille Day celebration together. D. The desire to teach music in a virtual way to students around the world. 3. Why was “Silk Road Echoes” well received by the audience? A. It reflected the beauty of nature wonderfully. B. It featured traditional Chinese folk performance. C. It was a musical handshake between civilizations. D. It was an excellent musical instrument exhibition. 4. What does the story mainly convey? A. Music is the source of lasting friendship. B. Mastering an instrument requires practice. C. Traditional music resists modern influences. D. Cooperation across cultures generates innovation. Passage 2 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州八市·期中） London’s rainy streets shone with neon lights as Nina scanned through WeChat, watching her family in Shanghai prepare traditional rice dumplings. Missing the warmth of their reunion, she sighed. Then an idea struck her: what if she could bring the festival spirit to her flat? That evening, Nina built a DIY electronic lantern.Using augmented reality (AR) software, she added digital flames that looked real to the paper decorations. When her father watched her show the lantern online, his voice shook with pride. “Your creation connects our worlds!” he said. The next day, her university classmates gathered. As Nina showed how waving a hand made a dragon appear and spin around — she realized something special was happening. Lucas was amazed by how old traditions and new tech mixed together, while Chinese student Mei shared stories about her family’s lantern-making secrets. The following morning, Nina spent the day improving the AR software,adding more customizable (可定制的) elements like different sounds and designs. She even added a fun tool where people could record voices that played when the lantern turned on. By evening, Nina’s virtual (虚拟的) lantern event had become a worldwide activity. Students from Berlin, Sydney, and New York joined, adding their own cultural styles to the digital lanterns. Through Nina’s AR app, the London sky lit up with moving dragons, cherry blossoms, and stars. As she explored the online event, Nina noticed a message from her grandfather. He sent a photo of their hometown village, where real silk lanterns floated alongside digital ones. “Although it lacks the smell of real silk and candle wax, your lantern’s light carries the same hope our family believed in. The old and new can coexist,” he wrote. “Your light has shown us the way.” Nina smiled, understanding finally that festivals aren’t about being perfect, but about bringing people together. Nina realized this was just the beginning. The AR lantern project had started conversations about saving traditions in the digital age. Universities from different countries were now reaching out, interested in working with her on festivals mixing tech and culture. As rain continued to fall on London, Nina felt a sense of purpose she’d never experienced before. The festival spirit she’d sought had found her, turned into something without borders and always changing. 1. What did Nina create to connect with her family? A. A traditional Chinese dress. B. A video call software. C. An electronic lantern. D. A handwritten letter. 2. How did Nina’s classmates react to her AR lantern? A. They were indifferent. B. They were impressed. C.

Traditional materials should replace digital technology. B. Cultural heritage can adapt to modern creations. C. Younger generations must stop using digital tools. D. Physical lanterns are better than virtual ones. 4. Which aspect of the AR lantern project is NOT mentioned as a cultural impact? A. Helping students from different countries work together. B. Starting discussions about technology’s role in tradition. C. Enabling global participation in local festivals. D. Keeping family-specific skills private. 5. What is the main message conveyed through Nina’s story? A. Traditional festivals require strict protection. B. Technology can better help cultural connections. C. London has better tech resources than Shanghai. D. Young people should give up old traditions. Passage 3 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州三中·期中） When is a shed (小屋) more than just a building? When it’s a potentially life-saving shelter for men who are struggling. That’s the idea around which the Men’s Sheds movement — led by the UK Men’s Sheds Association (UKMSA) is designed. While garden sheds are typically used by individuals for personal projects and the activities there are often done alone, Men’s Sheds are all about social connections and friendship building, as well as sharing skills and knowledge. “We know how well the movement helps with loneliness, social isolation (孤立) and both physical and mental health,” said Rob Lloyd, the UKMSA spokesperson. Last year, the national finalists in the 2024 Shed of the Year awards were announced, recognizing the groups and individuals that have helped fight loneliness that year. Among the groups is the Shrewsbury Men’s Shed. Simon Rouse, its chairman, talked about their approach: “We’ve been trying to combine two things: capable men who have health problems with challenges that make them realize they are still alive and have a lot to offer.” He explained that local charities and community groups have long lists of jobs they would love to do but can’t afford. “Our Men’s Shed has well-equipped workshops and skilled men with time on their hands and worries they might want to park for a while,” said Rouse. “If we put the two together, it’s a win for the men, their families, the local charities and community groups. Our members have enjoyed supporting our local community through a variety of things, including repairing electrical equipment, and building a reading tree as well as play equipment for local schools.” Rouse said that these men once thought the best was over for them, but now winning the award would be a rich reward for their years’ effort. “Now we’ll really see what we’re capable of,” he said. “The award would give our members another fantastic encouragement for them to continue to spread the word about the value of Men’s Sheds.” 1. What is the main goal of the Men’s Sheds movement? A. To finish personal projects. B. To help men with social and health challenges. C. To help improve men’s problem-solving skills. D. To let more people know about charity organizations 2. How does the Shrewsbury Men’s Shed help struggling men? A. By funding local charities. B. By upgrading their workshops. C.

It ensured them of more work chances. C. It changed their opinions of themselves. D. It improved their well-being and fame. 4. What is the best title for the text? A. The Rise of Garden Sheds for Health B. Knowledge Growth Through Men’s Sheds C. From Isolation to Inspiration: The Sheds Story D.

The operation was effective in closing the hole, but four years later, she developed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a type of high blood pressure in the heart and lungs that can be linked with congenital (先天的) heart disease — and for which there is no cure. Her symptoms included coughing, exhaustion, chest pain and feeling faint, especially when climbing stairs. She was told to stop all forms of exercise, since physical activity would be too draining on her body. “My dream of dancing died that day,” she says, adding that she felt lonely when she couldn’t join her friends on the sports field. Following her diagnosis (诊断), she quickly began treatment to help manage her symptoms, which enabled her to live a fairly normal life. That includes working as a personal care assistant, helping nurses in the same hospital where she was born. At first, she found the long hours on her feet very tiring. But thanks to a flexible schedule, as well as learning to go at her own pace, “I exceed (超出) my expectations,” she says. She’s also found love: “My fiance, Tiago, has always supported me. He comes with me to cardiology visits, reminds me to take my medication and does things like carry the shopping bag for me.” Reflecting on the challenges she has overcome, Chato feels pride. “Despite all the sad times I have been through, I am alive. I work, drive, travel, and do housekeeping, I get to watch my nephews grow up,” she says. “25 years ago there was not as much hope for people with PAH. My advice to anyone is: Be happy, enjoy every minute of your life and don’t give up.” 1. What caused Chato to develop PAH? A. The failed operation. B. Her lack of exercise. C. Her heart condition. D. The lung infection. 2. Why did Chato give up her dream? A. She was unwilling to see others. B. Her interest in dancing was reduced. C. She had to receive treatment. D. Her physical state worsened. 3. How did Chato manage her work? A. By getting extra breaks. B. By changing work pace. C. By asking others for help. D. By showing more patience. 4. Which words can best describe Chato? A. Courageous and tough. B. Energetic and talkative. C. Considerate and gifted. D. Humorous and modest. Passage 2 （24-25学年高一下·福建莆田五中·期中） Last summer, 17-year-old Li Mei from Chengdu stepped off the plane in Paris, carrying her beloved erhu - a traditional Chinese two-stringed instrument that was passed down from her grandmother. As part of a youth cultural exchange program, she had dreamed of this moment for years, yet the weight of representing her heritage in a foreign land left her palms sweaty. Little did she know that this trip would spark an extraordinary musical creation. During a workshop at a local art school, Li met Pierre, a French violinist who was fascinated by her instrument’s attractive sound. “It’s like the voice of ancient China,” he remarked with excitement, gently plucking (拨) the erhu’s strings. Inspired by each other’s music, they decided to mix the soulful melodies of the erhu with the dynamic range of the violin for a performance at the upcoming Bastille Day celebration. As they practiced in a sunlit studio overlooking the Seine, Li taught Pierre how to imitate raindrops with quick bow movements on the erhu, while Pierre showed her how to weave Western harmonies into the Chinese folk tune “Jasmine Flower.” The integration created a charming soundscape that neither had imagined possible. On the performance night, their piece “Silk Road Echoes” received thunderous applause. The audience were amazed at how the erhu’s sad tones danced with the violin’s vigorous melodies (旋律). What began as a summer experiment blossomed into lasting friendship and something far greater. Today, Li and Pierre co-teach virtual music classes, connecting students in Chengdu and Lyon through weekly “global jam sessions.” Their students cooperate on pieces that mix erhu with guitar or Peking opera with jazz. Li often tells her pupils, “Music has no borders; it’s a language that turns differences into harmonies.” When traditions meet with open hearts, they don’t conflict, they compose something entirely new. 1. Why did Li Mei bring her erhu to Paris? A. To share Chinese music culture. B. To give it to her friend as a present. C. To display it at a local studio. D. To teach students full-time. 2. What contributed to the lasting cooperation of Li Mei and Pierre? A. Their common and deep love for traditional Chinese music. B. Their successful performance and inspiration from each other’s music. C. The opportunity to participate in the Bastille Day celebration together. D. The desire to teach music in a virtual way to students around the world. 3. Why was “Silk Road Echoes” well received by the audience? A. It reflected the beauty of nature wonderfully. B. It featured traditional Chinese folk performance. C. It was a musical handshake between civilizations. D. It was an excellent musical instrument exhibition. 4. What does the story mainly convey? A. Music is the source of lasting friendship. B. Mastering an instrument requires practice. C. Traditional music resists modern influences. D. Cooperation across cultures generates innovation. Passage 3 （24-25学年高一下·福建三明一中·期中） In the late 1990s, a family visited the public elementary school where I taught deaf students. They said they would be moving to the district and planned to enroll (报名) their deaf daughter as a first grader. They were upset that their child’s kindergarten teacher Jane cautioned them not to have high hopes for her academically. Based upon assessment results, the teacher painted a discouraging picture for their little girl’s future. Standing behind them was Fiona, a beautiful five-year -old with long shiny brown hair and dark flashing eyes. The whole time her parents were there she didn’t make a sound or use sign language, even when her parents encouraged her. After a few weeks with Fiona, I discovered I was dealing with a very bright, very strong-willed child. Although I was able to engage her in a variety of learning activities, writing was a continual struggle. I tried all kinds of ways to interest her in writing. Every time the pencils came out, she would shut down and refuse to participate. One day Fiona got off her bus and stood in front of the school, weeping. The staff members present did not know enough sign language to ask her why she was crying. Finally they took her into the office where they handed her a pen and notepad. Fiona wrote: “PAC BAK”. Immediately the office staff realized she left her backpack on the bus. They asked the bus to come back to school and soon Fiona was reunited with her backpack. That day Fiona discovered the power of the pen. From then on, she had a new appreciation for writing. She is a young woman now and has become an excellent writer, public speaker and student leader. During her senior year in high school, Fiona became the Douglas County Rodeo Queen and the following year she enrolled at the University of Northern Colorado, determined to become a teacher. In the summer of 2008, I traveled to the National Association of the Deaf Conference in New Orleans and watched her perform competitively as Miss Deaf Colorado.

This shift, known as parentese, is not unique to humans—it has also been observed in animals like monkeys and gorillas(大猩猩). Now, scientists are adding one more species to that list: bottlenose dolphins. Dolphins are intelligent animals that live and hunt in groups. They communicate in a unique way: every individual produces its own signature sound that acts much like an ID card, usually by its first birthday. But how does each come up with its distinctive whistle? For babies, it might have something to do with listening to Mum. To solve this mystery, researchers examined the sounds mother dolphins make. Scientists studied 34 years' worth of recordings of sounds made by 19 female bottlenose dolphins. When the mother dolphins were near their young, they continued to make their signature sound, but at a higher frequency. They also used a wider range of frequencies than they did when their babies were not nearby. This discovery suggests that using these modifications(改进) mother dolphins assist their young in learning how to produce these calls themselves. Since dolphin babies often spend some years with their mothers before living on their own, it makes sense that this adaptation would help them learn to communicate. At the very least, the higher-pitched whistle likely gets the babies' attention. “It's important for a baby to know, ‘Oh, Mum' s talking to me now, ’” says marine biologist June Mann. This kind of research could help us understand how language developed in humans. “It is absolutely essential to have basic knowledge about other species and how they communicate, ” says Mann. “I would be really interested to see whether dolphins also change their sounds when interacting with babies of others, which is what happens in humans. ” 1. The underlined word “parentese” in the first paragraph most likely means _________. A. baby-directed speech B. dolphin signature whistles C. animal parenting strategies D. voice identification systems 2. What do the underlined words “this mystery” refer to in paragraph 2? A. How dolphins develop their unique sounds. B. Why dolphins live and play with their parents. C. What aspects of intelligence dolphins possess. D. Whether dolphins can use parentese like humans. 3. How did the researchers carry out their study of dolphins? A. By recording parent interaction frequency. B. By analyzing mother dolphins' sound features. C. By measuring the distance between parent and child. D. By examining the speech organs of mother dolphins. 4. What is a reason for dolphin mothers' using parentese with their young? A. To distract their attention. B. To help them learn to talk. C. To express worry and care. D. To teach them hunting skills. 5. What is the purpose of the text? A. To show the development of dolphin intelligence. B. To compare the parentese of humans and dolphins. C. To share new findings about dolphin communication. D. To highlight the value of studying dolphins' language. Passage 2 （24-25学年高一下·福建莆田哲理中学·期中） A blind Chinese climber reached the summit (顶点) of Qomolangma, known in the West as Mount Everest, on Monday morning, becoming the first blind person from Asia ever to conquer the world’s highest summit. Zhang Hong, 46, reached the top from the Nepali side, along with three high-altitude guides. Zhang, who was born in Chongqing, lost his sight at the age of 21. He now works at Fukang Hospital Affiliated with Tibet University in Lhasa. As Zhang began his climb of Qomolangma, which is 8,848. 86 meters above sea level, his colleagues in Lhasa were excited to hear the news of his success. “Many people may have doubted his attempt of climbing at first, but I was confident in him from the beginning,” said Kyila, the secretary of the Fukang Angel Foundation, who also is a blind person. “I knew before that he could make it, and he did make it. I am really happy for him. He is a model for blind people to encourage them to chase their dreams.” Zhang’s passion for climbing was inspired by Lotse, a famous Tibetan climber who conquered all the world’s 14 summits above the altitude of 8,000 meters. Lotse had shared the story of the blind US mountaineer Erik Weihenmayer, who climbed Qomolangma in May 2001. Zhang was touched by the story, which ignited his dream of climbing. As an amateur climber for years, Zhang had conquered three mountains above the altitude of 6,000 meters before climbing the world’s highest summit. He had begun preparing for the Qomolangma climb in 2019. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), all mountaineering teams on Qomolangma were canceled in Nepal and China last year, and he had to wait until recently to finally make the attempt. 1. What can we infer from what Kyila said? A. He had been inspired by Lotse. B. He had much belief in Zhang’s success. C. Zhang’s colleagues doubted his motivation. D. Zhang centered on climbing in his spare time. 2. What does the underlined word “ignited” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Lighted. B. Accomplished. C. Followed. D. Recalled. 3.

This year the 2024 Music Educator Award went to Annie Ray, a music teacher at a high school in Virginia, for her efforts to make music accessible to all students, particularly those with disabilities. However, in the award ceremony, she gave the credit to her students. Inspired mostly by the diversity of the Annandale community including over 60 countries, Ray created an orchestra for students with severe intellectual (智力的) and developmental disabilities. The orchestra is about much more than just making music. Ray says the program gives students a chance to develop their collaboration skills, make mistakes and learn the art of refining something. And they teach her a lot in return — more than she could ever teach them. She says her students completely changed her educational philosophy and approach. “I believe they have a really powerful message to share with everyone, and especially with how we approach music education and what that looks like,” she added. Ray says the success was especially meaningful because not many people understand what exactly music educators do in the classroom or how much their work matters. While her administration is supportive, another challenge is that her school “desperately” needs new instruments. Ray says she will use some of her grant money to buy more. Ray plans to put some of the money towards an ongoing scholarship for students who want to pursue music when they graduate. She knows of several who want to go into music education themselves, which she finds especially rewarding. “It is a hard profession, but it’s one that is really, deeply personal and satisfying,” Ray said. “And there’s nothing else like it.” 1. Why did Ray win the 2024 Music Educator Award? A. Because of her pioneering teaching philosophy. B. Because of her great musical talent. C. Because of her outstanding education contribution. D. Because of her extraordinary personal style. 2. What is the orchestra eager for? A. New instruments. B. Support from school. C. Students’ participation. D. Money from the government. 3. Which of the following is satisfying to Ray? A. More students majoring in music. B. More graduates into teaching music. C. More awards for music educators. D. More parents joining the orchestra. 【答案】1. C 2. A 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了音乐教师安妮·雷因致力于让所有学生，尤其是残障学生接触音乐而获得2024年音乐教育奖，并分享了她的教育理念与未来计划。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This year the 2024 Music Educator Award went to Annie Ray, a music teacher at a high school in Virginia, for her efforts to make music accessible to all students, particularly those with disabilities.(今年，2024 年音乐教育奖授予了弗吉尼亚州一所高中的音乐教师安妮·雷，因为她努力让所有学生都能接触到音乐，特别是那些残疾学生)”可知，安妮·雷因其在音乐教育方面的杰出贡献而获得了2024年音乐教育家奖。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“While her administration is supportive, another challenge is that her school ‘desperately’ needs new instruments. Ray says she will use some of her grant money to buy more.(虽然她的学校管理部门给予了支持，但另一个挑战是她的学校‘迫切’需要新乐器。雷说她将用她的一些奖金来购买更多的乐器)”可知，管弦乐队迫切需要新乐器。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“She knows of several who want to go into music education themselves, which she finds especially rewarding.(她知道有几个学生自己想从事音乐教育工作，她觉得这特别有意义)”可知，让雷感到满足的是有更多的毕业生从事音乐教学工作。故选B。 Passage 3 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州高级中学·期中） My dearest granddaughter, By the time you read this, I’ll be gone. But I want to share with you the story that shaped our family’s legacy (遗产) —a tale of gratitude that echoed (流传) through generations. It was 1955, and I was just a young girl of 12. Times were hard, and our family struggled to make ends meet. One particularly hard winter, we had nothing left but a few potatoes and a little candle. That’s when a knock on the door changed everything. Mrs. Thompson, our neighbor, stood there with a basket full of food. “I’m thankful for good neighbors,” she said simply, pressing the basket into my mother’s hands before hurrying away. That night, as we enjoyed our unexpected meal, my father declared, “When we have enough, we must remember this kindness and pass it on.” Years passed, and our fortunes improved. True to his word, my father always found ways to help others, saying it was an echo of Mrs. Thompson’ s kindness. I watched as he slipped groceries onto the porches (门廊) of struggling families, secretly paid for children’s school supplies, and volunteered at the local shelter. One day, while volunteering, he met a young man named Jack —your grandfather. Jack had fallen on hard times but was determined to turn his life around. My father took him under his wing, helping him find a job and a place to live. Jack, filled with gratitude, threw himself into his work and studies. He often said, “I’m just echoing the kindness shown to me.” It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him. As our family grew, your grandfather and I made sure to keep the echo alive. We taught your mother, and her siblings, the importance of being thankful and paying kindness forward. Now, my dear Emma, I pass this story to you. Our family’s echo of thankfulness has touched countless lives over the years. Some we know about, like the scholarship fund your mother started, but many more we’ ll never know. Remember, gratitude is not just a feeling —it’s an action. It has the power to create ripples(涟漪) that turn into waves, touching lives far beyond our own. With all my love, Grandma 1. How did the family feel about Mrs. Thompson’s action? A. Puzzled. B.

I went to work with my computer to a local cafe so that I could have dinner there. It was raining a bit this time and also I was among people. Sometimes when you work from home all day this is in itself a treat. And the magic of connection sometimes happens — a smile, someone offering you the newspaper, a short conversation with the staff, a peace dove flying past and lots of possibilities for love and kindness. Well, magic did happen. I heard a man who was speaking with difficulty and very loud. I noticed he could not speak so clearly and he had some kind of impairment (损伤). As often happened, people looked at him-or avoided doing so-and then-as if embarrassed or afraid — looked down. In these cases I try to do the opposite. I imagined a person in these circumstances would want to feel included. So I decided to deliberately look at him and smile. It was an instant! He looked at me, smiled and immediately said hello. With a combination of spoken and body language he asked if he could approach me. I agreed. He introduced me to his friend who taught sign language online and explained that they were both deaf, after which he even told me about his wife and how he loved teaching. I apologized for not knowing sign language and hoped I’d learnt. We still managed to have a beautiful conversation which made us all very happy. I’m sure we’ll meet again to experience the magic of being and being with others. 1. Why did the author go to the cafe yesterday? A. To find someone beautiful. B. To work and eat something. C. To ask for a latest newspaper. D. To have a short talk with others. 2. How did the author react to the man with speaking difficulty? A. He pretended not to see him. B. He had a joke with him. C. He looked and smiled at him. D. He laughed at him like others. 3. What’s the most important to a disabled person? A. Being treated in a normal way. B. Accepting help from people around. C.

Now, the 87-year-old grandmother is the proud author of six books. She learned her first character in 1996, after her husband died in a car accident, when her daughter Zhang Ailing suggested that she learn to read to take her mind off the loneliness and sorrow. Zhang says that her mother had her own way of learning. Whenever she came across characters she didn’t know at bus stops or shop signs, she found someone to ask. Once Jiang had learned enough characters, Zhang started giving her books to read. Enjoying the books, Jiang told her daughter that she wanted to write down her own stories to share. She first put pen to paper in 2012, at the age of 75. It was not easy. Sometimes,completing a single sentence could take a day. Jiang usually started writing at 3 or 4 am, and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied. Zhang began publishing her mother’s stories on social media platforms in 2013. When Zhang and her mother drew the attention of Zhang’s writer friends, the pair made a decision to publish them. The first book, Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty, was published later that year, and proved to be a success. Some critics even praised it as the “live history of a nation plagued by tough times”. The book earned Jiang a lot of fans and sympathy. So far, the elderly woman has published six books, totaling more than 600, 000characters in length. She lives a healthy life, exercising every day, drinking milk and soy milk, as well as having regular exercise. “If I could live as long as 130, would you still say that it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asks, jokingly. 1. Why did Jiang learn to read in her later years? A. To become a proud author. B. To make up for not going to school. C. To encourage her friends and families. D. To reduce the impact of her husband’s death. 2. What made Jiang decide to publish her first book? A. A strong inner desire. B. The attention from other writers. C. Her daughter’s encouragement. D. The development of social media. 3. What dose the underlined word“plagued”in paragraph 4 mean? A. Aided. B. Enlarged. C. Troubled. D. Defeated. 4. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. One is never too old to learn. B. All roads lead to Rome. C. Where there is life, there is love. D. Gold can’t be pure and man can’t be perfect. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C 4.

She lives a healthy life, exercising every day, drinking milk and soy milk, as well as having regular exercise. “If I could live as long as 130, would you still say that it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asks, jokingly.(到目前为止，这位老妇人已经出版了六本书，总长度超过60万字。她过着健康的生活，每天锻炼，喝牛奶和豆浆，并定期锻炼。“如果我能活到130岁，你还会说我60岁以后再开始太迟吗?”她开玩笑地问道。)”可推知，从姜的故事，我们知道活到老，学到老的道理。故选A。 Passage 2 （24-25学年高一下·福建德化二中·期中） In a small village, there used to be two friends whose ages were 5 and 10.

John was much bigger and stronger than Jonny. (5岁的叫Jonny，10岁的叫John。John比Jonny高大强壮得多)”可知，John比Jonny年长，也更强壮。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Suddenly John fell into a pit (深坑). John started shouting for help. Jonny ran to John at once. Without wasting a minute, he got a rope and gave one end to John and asked him to hold on to it. Jonny tried very hard and finally pulled John out from the pit. (突然，John掉进了一个坑里。他开始大声呼救。Jonny立刻跑到John身边。他没有浪费一分一秒，找来一根绳子，把一端递给John让他紧紧抓住。Jonny用尽全力，终于把John从坑里拉了出来)”可知，John掉进坑里，Jonny救出了他。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“All the villagers started to help search for the children.

(老人回答道：那“是因为当时没有人对Jonny说‘你做不到’。”)”可知，5岁的Jonny成功救出10岁的John，但村民们不相信一个小孩子能做到这件事，一位智慧老人相信这是真的，并指出这是因为Jonny没有被人否定，而是本能地发挥了能力。这表明当人不受外界限制时，可能突破自我，因此B项“只要相信自己，就能做到”符合故事传达的信息。故选B项。 Passage 3 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州十一中·期中） An allergy (过敏) made Clare give up her job training racehorses, but she has now created a new career for herself as a best-selling author. Jane interviews her. In the large field which would normally contain horses, there are three big dogs running wildly around. As I talk to Clare and her husband, Daniel, he says, “I’m not allowing Clare to have anything larger than those dogs. ” It’s said with a smile, but persuading one of Britain’s most successful racehorse trainers to give up her work can’t have been easy. Clare explains her situation: I’d been ill for some time, and then I discovered that I had actually developed an allergy to horses. Giving up training horses after so long was a horrible decision to take. But it wasn’t as if I needed the money any more. And at least it allowed me to try writing on a full-time basis — I’d been writing in my free time for years! Clare has made a new career as a novelist ever since. Clare’s son Tim has now taken over her training business. Despite the fact that Tim’s only been doing this for two years, Clare announces proudly that he’s already had several winners. “But racehorse owners have high expectations. Keeping them happy is not an easy task, ” she says. “It is something you really have to work at and I just hope he can manage. ” Clare says she is trying to put her life in horse-racing behind her, but in the next breath, she’s talking about a young horse at Tim’s stables (马厩). She often relieves herself: “my books are selling well. We do need to sort things out better, though, so we have time to take holidays, and enjoy our hard-earned money! ” However, as hard as she tries, there is obviously a huge gap in Clare’s life that has yet to be filled. 1. What do we learn about Clare in the first paragraph? A. She likes to follow her husband’s advice. B. She was relieved to begin a less stressful job. C. She is still worried about her family’s financial security. D. She accepted that a change of career would be beneficial. 2. What is Clare’s attitude to her son’s situation? A. She considers that he is too competitive. B. She worries that he is under too much pressure. C. She believes that he should have more contact with her. D. She thinks he should spend more time with racehorse owners. 3. What does the writer mean in the final paragraph? A. Clare is enlarging the size of her income. B. Clare misses her involvement with horses. C. Clare is concentrating too much on her hobbies. D. Clare plans to return to the horse-racing business. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物访谈。文章主要讲述了Clare因过敏放弃赛马训练师的工作后，转行成为畅销书作家，同时她的儿子接管了她的训练业务，但Clare仍对马术有着深厚的情感。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Clare explains her situation: I’d been ill for some time, and then I discovered that I had actually developed an allergy to horses. Giving up training horses after so long was a horrible decision to take. But it wasn’t as if I needed the money any more. And at least it allowed me to try writing on a full-time basis — I’d been writing in my free time for years! (。Clare解释了她的处境：我病了一段时间，然后我发现我实际上对马过敏。放弃训练了这么久的马是一个可怕的决定。但我也不再需要钱了。至少这让我可以尝试全职写作——我已经在业余时间写作好几年了!)”可知，Clare在发现自己对马过敏后，虽然放弃赛马训练师的工作是一个艰难的决定，但她接受了这一改变，并认为这至少让她可以尝试全职写作。由此可推断，Clare接受了职业转变会带来好处这一事实。故选D。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“ “But racehorse owners have high expectations. Keeping them happy is not an easy task, ” she says. “It is something you really have to work at and I just hope he can manage. ” (“但赛马主对赛马有很高的期望。让他们开心不是一件容易的事，”她说。“这是你必须努力的事情，我只是希望他能做到。”)”可知，Clare认为赛马主人的期望很高，让赛马主人高兴不是一件容易的事，她希望她的儿子能处理好。由此可推断，Clare担心她的儿子承受了太多的压力。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Clare says she is trying to put her life in horse-racing behind her, but in the next breath, she’s talking about a young horse at Tim’s stables (马厩). (Clare说她正试图把赛马生活抛在脑后，但紧接着，她又开始谈论Tim马厩里的一匹小马)”以及“However, as hard as she tries, there is obviously a huge gap in Clare’s life that has yet to be filled. (然而，尽管她努力尝试，Clare的生活中显然还有一个巨大的空白需要填补)”可知，Clare虽然试图把赛马生活抛在脑后，但她仍然在谈论马，并且她的生活中还有一个巨大的空白需要填补。由此可推断，作者在最后一段的意思是Clare怀念她与马的接触。故选B。 Passage 4 （24-25学年高一下·福建莆田华侨中学·期中） A few days ago I visited my grandfather in hospital. He has Alzhemier’s—a disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse gradually. I thought I was prepared to see him. I knew chances were slim that he’d actually recognize me. He didn’t. As a matter of fact, he had no idea that he even had grandchildren. But he was excited that somebody came to visit him. I tried to explain to him who I was. But after he told me multiple times that he didn’t have grandchildren, I gave up. And my heart broke into a million little pieces. We sat in silence for a little while, before he told me to call my grandma. This was the first time I had tried so hard to hold back tears. My grandma died four years ago and he didn’t remember. He thought she was stuck on her way to pick him up. My grandpa used to be a strong, hard-working man. He was the person you turned to when you needed your car fixed, your tires changed or something heavy to be carried. Sadly, that man left this world a long time ago, and left behind a man that is lost and scared. I want to help him. I want to make him feel better. I want to tell him about his old life, and how great it was. So I sat with him and I held his hand, and every once in a while I told him how good he looked and how much I liked the color of his shirt and how it brought out the blue in his eyes. I told him that my grandma was on her way whenever he asked about her, and I made sure the glass in his hand was always filled with water. I can’t take away his pain. I can’t help him remember. I can’t make the disease go away. All I can do is hold on to the memories—hold on for both of us. 1. Why was the author about to cry? A. Grandpa needed to be taken care of. B.

This was the first time I had tried so hard to hold back tears. My grandma died four years ago and he didn’t remember. He thought she was stuck on her way to pick him up. (我们沉默地坐了一会儿，然后他让我打电话给我奶奶。这是我第一次如此努力地忍住眼泪。我奶奶四年前去世了，他不记得了。他以为她被困在去接他的路上了。)”可知，可知作者几乎要哭了，因为爷爷相信已经去世的奶奶还活着。故选B。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“I want to help him. I want to make him feel better. I want to tell him about his old life, and how great it was. So I sat with him and I held his hand, and every once in a while I told him how good he looked and how much I liked the color of his shirt and how it brought out the blue in his eyes. (我想帮助他。我想让他感觉好点。我想告诉他他以前的生活，还有那有多棒。于是我和他坐在一起，握着他的手，每隔一段时间，我就告诉他他看起来有多好，我多么喜欢他衬衫的颜色，以及它如何衬托出他眼睛里的蓝色。)”可知，作者想帮助他，故作者是体贴的；作者每隔一段时间，就告诉他他看起来有多好，可见作者是有耐心的。故选A。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I can’t take away his pain. I can’t help him remember. I can’t make the disease go away. All I can do is hold on to the memories—hold on for both of us. (我不能消除他的痛苦。我没法帮他记起来。我不能让这种病消失。我所能做的就是抓住这些记忆——为了我们俩。)”可知，作者写这篇文章是为了表达对爷爷深深的爱。故选C。 主题03 人与自然 Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·福建福州三中·期中） My wife always wanted a Vizsla, so when we got the house, the garden and everything sorted, we did some research and found a lovely breeder (饲养员) based in Scotland. He was in charge of everything, so a few months go by and the next thing I know, we’ve got a puppy! I’ve grown up with animals all my life, and I’m so glad I have. I love the fact that I was never afraid of any animals. Although you do obviously have to be careful when introducing children to a dog they don’t know, because you don’t know how it’s going to behave, it always saddens me when I see children scared when they walk past Pedro. I think it’s great for kids to learn how to look after an animal. And obviously for us, as a family, it’s brilliant because we take Pedro for so many walks. It’s a bit of a family bonding experience getting out in the fresh air; taking Pedro for a walk multiple times a day is just really lovely. Meanwhile, the most rewarding, I think, is just seeing how amazing he is with the kids. He is so calm, so protective, so loving, and we are his world. I think the most challenging aspects with Pedro were when he was a puppy (小狗). He was pretty hard work. He was never aggressive, but he was quite bitey as puppies are, constantly pulling out your clothes and putting holes in them, which is very annoying. He chewed the furniture-my sofas are barely standing up; their wooden legs are almost in pieces. Obviously, the dog training in the house was quite stressful and his jumping at strangers in the park and running off was always quite scary. As a new puppy owner, you’re overloaded with advice from social media, magazines, other dog owners and friends, so finding a source of information you trust is so important and can be a real turning point. I know what it’s like to be bombarded with conflicting information, so I would have really welcomed Royal Canin’s “One in a Billion” platform as a new puppy owner. It’s a one-stop shop for new dog owners: a single source of credible information that is so helpful in navigating the early stages of your puppy’s life. 1. What do we know about the author? A. He is inexperienced in raising pets. B. He is unsupportive of his wife’s desire. C. He feels it a pity that children shy away from pets. D. He thinks one should be cautious about raising pets. 2. What does the author think of Pedro? A. Dangerous but loyal. B. Playful and gentle. C. Adorable but troublesome. D. Annoying and fierce. 3. What can we infer according to paragraph 4? A. Dogs are man’s best friends. B. It is worthless to have a dog. C. Puppies are unfriendly to humans. D. It is challenging to train a puppy. 4. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To recommend a reliable platform. B. To share a fun experience. C. To offer evidence for an argument. D. To advertise a practical product. 【答案】1. C 2. C 3. D 4. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者妻子心仪已久的Vizsla犬Pedro加入家庭的生活，带来欢乐也伴随着幼犬期的挑战。它与孩子间的温馨互动、户外共行加固了家庭纽带。作者认为专业宠物养护平台对新手主人至关重要。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Although you do obviously have to be careful when introducing children to a dog they don’t know, because you don’t know how it’s going to behave, it always saddens me when I see children scared when they walk past Pedro. I think it’s great for kids to learn how to look after an animal. (虽然当你把孩子介绍给他们不认识的狗时，显然必须小心，因为你不知道它会怎么表现，但当我看到孩子们走过佩德罗时害怕的时候，我总是很难过。我认为让孩子们学习如何照顾动物是很好的。)”可知，作者对于孩子们因不了解而害怕宠物感到遗憾。故选C。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Meanwhile, the most rewarding, I think, is just seeing how amazing he is with the kids. He is so calm, so protective, so loving, and we are his world. (与此同时，我认为最有意义的是，看到他和孩子们相处得有多好。他很冷静，很有保护欲，很有爱心，我们就是他的世界。)”和第四段中“He was never aggressive, but he was quite bitey as puppies are, constantly pulling out your clothes and putting holes in them, which is very annoying. He chewed the furniture-my sofas are barely standing up; their wooden legs are almost in pieces. Obviously, the dog training in the house was quite stressful and his jumping at strangers in the park and running off was always quite scary. (他从来没有攻击性，但他像小狗一样爱咬，经常把你的衣服扯出来，在上面咬出洞，这很烦人。他咬家具——我的沙发几乎立不住；木腿几乎都碎了。显然，在家里训练狗的压力很大，在公园里它对着陌生人跳来跳去然后跑开，总是让人很害怕。)”可知，作者认为Pedro可爱但麻烦。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段“I think the most challenging aspects with Pedro were when he was a puppy (小狗).

The misty dusk made the distant mountains appear like a two-dimensional painting. A group of hikers, composed of a photographer, an elderly couple, and two dynamic teenagers, were anticipating the highlight of their trip — the peak of Blue Ridge. However, the weather took a dramatic turn. The sky grew darker, and a massive thunderstorm arose, swallowing the sunlight. As they proceeded alongside the shore of a small lake, one of the teenagers, Tom, slipped on the wet cobblestones and sprained his ankle. The swelling was so severe that he couldn’t stand. The group panicked, but the photographer, a former paramedic, acted urgently. He wrapped Tom’s ankle tightly with a piece of fabric from his backpack to ease the pain. Meanwhile, the elderly man tried to grab his phone to call for help, only to realize there was no signal. Desperate, they decided to send the two teenagers to seek assistance. The foggy conditions and the lack of clear paths made their progress slow. Just as hope seemed lost, they spotted a ranger’s cabin in the distance. The ranger, a humble man with a grizzly beard, immediately contacted the nearest hospital. An ambulance arrived shortly, its lights piercing through the mist like rays of hope. The rescue team, equipped with IV needles and other vital tools, examined Tom thoroughly. Despite the minor fractures, they assured the group he would recover. The ranger later explained that such incidents were not uncommon in the area, especially during unpredictable weather. His words conveyed a sense of calm, contrasting sharply with the earlier chaos. Reflecting on the ordeal (考验), the hikers felt a mix of relief and awe. The prairie, though beautiful, demanded respect. The experience bonded them deeply, and they left with a newfound appreciation for nature’s power and human resilience. 1. What caused Tom’s injury during the hike? A. Slipping on wet cobblestones. B. Being bitten by a mosquito. C. A sudden thunder strike. D. A loose backpack strap. 2. How did the photographer contribute to the rescue? A. He called the ambulance immediately. B. He used his medical skills to stabilize Tom. C. He guided the group to the ranger’s cabin. D. He took pictures to document the incident. 3. What is the main theme of the passage? A. The dangers of hiking in unpredictable weather. B. The importance of teamwork in emergencies. C. The beauty and risks of natural landscapes. D. The role of technology in modern rescues. 4. Which sentence best illustrates the group’s emotional state after the rescue? A. “The foggy conditions and the lack of clear paths made their progress slow.” B. “His words conveyed a sense of calm, contrasting sharply with the earlier chaos.” C. “The ranger, a humble man with a grizzly beard, immediately contacted the nearest hospital.” D. “The experience bonded them deeply, and they left with a newfound appreciation for nature’s power and human resilience.” 【答案】1.

As part of a youth cultural exchange program, she had dreamed of this moment for years, yet the weight of representing her heritage in a foreign land left her palms sweaty. Little did she know that this trip would spark an extraordinary musical creation. During a workshop at a local art school, Li met Pierre, a French violinist who was fascinated by her instrument’s attractive sound. “It’s like the voice of ancient China,” he remarked with excitement, gently plucking (拨) the erhu’s strings. Inspired by each other’s music, they decided to mix the soulful melodies of the erhu with the dynamic range of the violin for a performance at the upcoming Bastille Day celebration. As they practiced in a sunlit studio overlooking the Seine, Li taught Pierre how to imitate raindrops with quick bow movements on the erhu, while Pierre showed her how to weave Western harmonies into the Chinese folk tune “Jasmine Flower.” The integration created a charming soundscape that neither had imagined possible. On the performance night, their piece “Silk Road Echoes” received thunderous applause. The audience were amazed at how the erhu’s sad tones danced with the violin’s vigorous melodies (旋律). What began as a summer experiment blossomed into lasting friendship and something far greater. Today, Li and Pierre co-teach virtual music classes, connecting students in Chengdu and Lyon through weekly “global jam sessions.” Their students cooperate on pieces that mix erhu with guitar or Peking opera with jazz. Li often tells her pupils, “Music has no borders; it’s a language that turns differences into harmonies.” When traditions meet with open hearts, they don’t conflict, they compose something entirely new. 1. Why did Li Mei bring her erhu to Paris? A. To share Chinese music culture. B. To give it to her friend as a present. C. To display it at a local studio. D. To teach students full-time. 2. What contributed to the lasting cooperation of Li Mei and Pierre? A. Their common and deep love for traditional Chinese music. B. Their successful performance and inspiration from each other’s music. C. The opportunity to participate in the Bastille Day celebration together. D. The desire to teach music in a virtual way to students around the world. 3. Why was “Silk Road Echoes” well received by the audience? A. It reflected the beauty of nature wonderfully. B. It featured traditional Chinese folk performance. C. It was a musical handshake between civilizations. D. It was an excellent musical instrument exhibition. 4. What does the story mainly convey? A. Music is the source of lasting friendship. B.

Missing the warmth of their reunion, she sighed. Then an idea struck her: what if she could bring the festival spirit to her flat? That evening, Nina built a DIY electronic lantern.Using augmented reality (AR) software, she added digital flames that looked real to the paper decorations. When her father watched her show the lantern online, his voice shook with pride. “Your creation connects our worlds!” he said. The next day, her university classmates gathered. As Nina showed how waving a hand made a dragon appear and spin around — she realized something special was happening. Lucas was amazed by how old traditions and new tech mixed together, while Chinese student Mei shared stories about her family’s lantern-making secrets. The following morning, Nina spent the day improving the AR software,adding more customizable (可定制的) elements like different sounds and designs. She even added a fun tool where people could record voices that played when the lantern turned on. By evening, Nina’s virtual (虚拟的) lantern event had become a worldwide activity. Students from Berlin, Sydney, and New York joined, adding their own cultural styles to the digital lanterns. Through Nina’s AR app, the London sky lit up with moving dragons, cherry blossoms, and stars. As she explored the online event, Nina noticed a message from her grandfather. He sent a photo of their hometown village, where real silk lanterns floated alongside digital ones. “Although it lacks the smell of real silk and candle wax, your lantern’s light carries the same hope our family believed in. The old and new can coexist,” he wrote. “Your light has shown us the way.” Nina smiled, understanding finally that festivals aren’t about being perfect, but about bringing people together. Nina realized this was just the beginning. The AR lantern project had started conversations about saving traditions in the digital age. Universities from different countries were now reaching out, interested in working with her on festivals mixing tech and culture. As rain continued to fall on London, Nina felt a sense of purpose she’d never experienced before. The festival spirit she’d sought had found her, turned into something without borders and always changing. 1. What did Nina create to connect with her family? A. A traditional Chinese dress. B.

When it’s a potentially life-saving shelter for men who are struggling. That’s the idea around which the Men’s Sheds movement — led by the UK Men’s Sheds Association (UKMSA) is designed. While garden sheds are typically used by individuals for personal projects and the activities there are often done alone, Men’s Sheds are all about social connections and friendship building, as well as sharing skills and knowledge. “We know how well the movement helps with loneliness, social isolation (孤立) and both physical and mental health,” said Rob Lloyd, the UKMSA spokesperson. Last year, the national finalists in the 2024 Shed of the Year awards were announced, recognizing the groups and individuals that have helped fight loneliness that year. Among the groups is the Shrewsbury Men’s Shed. Simon Rouse, its chairman, talked about their approach: “We’ve been trying to combine two things: capable men who have health problems with challenges that make them realize they are still alive and have a lot to offer.” He explained that local charities and community groups have long lists of jobs they would love to do but can’t afford. “Our Men’s Shed has well-equipped workshops and skilled men with time on their hands and worries they might want to park for a while,” said Rouse. “If we put the two together, it’s a win for the men, their families, the local charities and community groups. Our members have enjoyed supporting our local community through a variety of things, including repairing electrical equipment, and building a reading tree as well as play equipment for local schools.” Rouse said that these men once thought the best was over for them, but now winning the award would be a rich reward for their years’ effort. “Now we’ll really see what we’re capable of,” he said. “The award would give our members another fantastic encouragement for them to continue to spread the word about the value of Men’s Sheds.” 1. What is the main goal of the Men’s Sheds movement? A. To finish personal projects. B. To help men with social and health challenges. C. To help improve men’s problem-solving skills. D. To let more people know about charity organizations 2. How does the Shrewsbury Men’s Shed help struggling men? A. By funding local charities. B. By upgrading their workshops. C. By providing medical assistance. D. By involving them in voluntary tasks. 3. Why is winning the award significant for the shed members according to Rouse? A. It increased their earnings. B. It ensured them of more work chances. C. It changed their opinions of themselves. D. It improved their well-being and fame. 4. What is the best title for the text? A. The Rise of Garden Sheds for Health B. Knowledge Growth Through Men’s Sheds C. From Isolation to Inspiration: The Sheds Story D. Men’s Sheds: Bridges of Hope and Connection 【答案】1. B 2. D 3. C 4.

The operation was effective in closing the hole, but four years later, she developed pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a type of high blood pressure in the heart and lungs that can be linked with congenital (先天的) heart disease — and for which there is no cure. Her symptoms included coughing, exhaustion, chest pain and feeling faint, especially when climbing stairs. She was told to stop all forms of exercise, since physical activity would be too draining on her body. “My dream of dancing died that day,” she says, adding that she felt lonely when she couldn’t join her friends on the sports field. Following her diagnosis (诊断), she quickly began treatment to help manage her symptoms, which enabled her to live a fairly normal life. That includes working as a personal care assistant, helping nurses in the same hospital where she was born. At first, she found the long hours on her feet very tiring. But thanks to a flexible schedule, as well as learning to go at her own pace, “I exceed (超出) my expectations,” she says. She’s also found love: “My fiance, Tiago, has always supported me. He comes with me to cardiology visits, reminds me to take my medication and does things like carry the shopping bag for me.” Reflecting on the challenges she has overcome, Chato feels pride. “Despite all the sad times I have been through, I am alive. I work, drive, travel, and do housekeeping, I get to watch my nephews grow up,” she says. “25 years ago there was not as much hope for people with PAH. My advice to anyone is: Be happy, enjoy every minute of your life and don’t give up.” 1. What caused Chato to develop PAH? A. The failed operation. B. Her lack of exercise. C. Her heart condition. D.

They said they would be moving to the district and planned to enroll (报名) their deaf daughter as a first grader. They were upset that their child’s kindergarten teacher Jane cautioned them not to have high hopes for her academically. Based upon assessment results, the teacher painted a discouraging picture for their little girl’s future. Standing behind them was Fiona, a beautiful five-year -old with long shiny brown hair and dark flashing eyes. The whole time her parents were there she didn’t make a sound or use sign language, even when her parents encouraged her. After a few weeks with Fiona, I discovered I was dealing with a very bright, very strong-willed child. Although I was able to engage her in a variety of learning activities, writing was a continual struggle. I tried all kinds of ways to interest her in writing. Every time the pencils came out, she would shut down and refuse to participate. One day Fiona got off her bus and stood in front of the school, weeping. The staff members present did not know enough sign language to ask her why she was crying. Finally they took her into the office where they handed her a pen and notepad. Fiona wrote: “PAC BAK”. Immediately the office staff realized she left her backpack on the bus. They asked the bus to come back to school and soon Fiona was reunited with her backpack. That day Fiona discovered the power of the pen. From then on, she had a new appreciation for writing. She is a young woman now and has become an excellent writer, public speaker and student leader. During her senior year in high school, Fiona became the Douglas County Rodeo Queen and the following year she enrolled at the University of Northern Colorado, determined to become a teacher.

This shift, known as parentese, is not unique to humans—it has also been observed in animals like monkeys and gorillas(大猩猩). Now, scientists are adding one more species to that list: bottlenose dolphins. Dolphins are intelligent animals that live and hunt in groups. They communicate in a unique way: every individual produces its own signature sound that acts much like an ID card, usually by its first birthday. But how does each come up with its distinctive whistle? For babies, it might have something to do with listening to Mum. To solve this mystery, researchers examined the sounds mother dolphins make. Scientists studied 34 years' worth of recordings of sounds made by 19 female bottlenose dolphins. When the mother dolphins were near their young, they continued to make their signature sound, but at a higher frequency. They also used a wider range of frequencies than they did when their babies were not nearby. This discovery suggests that using these modifications(改进) mother dolphins assist their young in learning how to produce these calls themselves. Since dolphin babies often spend some years with their mothers before living on their own, it makes sense that this adaptation would help them learn to communicate. At the very least, the higher-pitched whistle likely gets the babies' attention. “It's important for a baby to know, ‘Oh, Mum' s talking to me now, ’” says marine biologist June Mann. This kind of research could help us understand how language developed in humans. “It is absolutely essential to have basic knowledge about other species and how they communicate, ” says Mann. “I would be really interested to see whether dolphins also change their sounds when interacting with babies of others, which is what happens in humans. ” 1. The underlined word “parentese” in the first paragraph most likely means _________. A. baby-directed speech B. dolphin signature whistles C. animal parenting strategies D. voice identification systems 2. What do the underlined words “this mystery” refer to in paragraph 2? A. How dolphins develop their unique sounds. B. Why dolphins live and play with their parents. C. What aspects of intelligence dolphins possess. D. Whether dolphins can use parentese like humans. 3. How did the researchers carry out their study of dolphins? A. By recording parent interaction frequency. B. By analyzing mother dolphins' sound features. C. By measuring the distance between parent and child. D. By examining the speech organs of mother dolphins. 4. What is a reason for dolphin mothers' using parentese with their young? A. To distract their attention. B. To help them learn to talk. C. To express worry and care. D. To teach them hunting skills. 5. What is the purpose of the text? A. To show the development of dolphin intelligence. B. To compare the parentese of humans and dolphins. C. To share new findings about dolphin communication. D. To highlight the value of studying dolphins' language. 【答案】1. A 2. A 3. B 4. B 5.

Zhang Hong, 46, reached the top from the Nepali side, along with three high-altitude guides. Zhang, who was born in Chongqing, lost his sight at the age of 21. He now works at Fukang Hospital Affiliated with Tibet University in Lhasa. As Zhang began his climb of Qomolangma, which is 8,848. 86 meters above sea level, his colleagues in Lhasa were excited to hear the news of his success. “Many people may have doubted his attempt of climbing at first, but I was confident in him from the beginning,” said Kyila, the secretary of the Fukang Angel Foundation, who also is a blind person. “I knew before that he could make it, and he did make it. I am really happy for him. He is a model for blind people to encourage them to chase their dreams.” Zhang’s passion for climbing was inspired by Lotse, a famous Tibetan climber who conquered all the world’s 14 summits above the altitude of 8,000 meters. Lotse had shared the story of the blind US mountaineer Erik Weihenmayer, who climbed Qomolangma in May 2001. Zhang was touched by the story, which ignited his dream of climbing. As an amateur climber for years, Zhang had conquered three mountains above the altitude of 6,000 meters before climbing the world’s highest summit. He had begun preparing for the Qomolangma climb in 2019. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), all mountaineering teams on Qomolangma were canceled in Nepal and China last year, and he had to wait until recently to finally make the attempt. 1. What can we infer from what Kyila said? A. He had been inspired by Lotse. B. He had much belief in Zhang’s success. C. Zhang’s colleagues doubted his motivation. D. Zhang centered on climbing in his spare time. 2. What does the underlined word “ignited” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Lighted. B. Accomplished. C. Followed. D. Recalled. 3. Why did Zhang Hong fail to climb Qomolangma in 2020? A. He was too weak. B. He wasn’t well prepared. C. A pandemic broke out. D. Extreme weather occurred. 4. What’s the best title for the text? A. Zhang Hong Sets an Example to Others B. A Blind Climber Reaches Qomolangma Summit C. Qomolangma Attracts More Chinese to Climb D. A Chinese Climber Got Through the Pandemic 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 4. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了中国盲人张洪登上珠穆朗玛峰的故事。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段Kyila的话“I knew before that he could make it, and he did make it. I am really happy for him. (我之前就知道他能做到，他确实做到了。我真的为他感到高兴)”可推知，他对张的成功充满信心。故选B项。 【2题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“Lotse had shared the story of the blind US mountaineer Erik Weihenmayer, who climbed Qomolangma in May 2001. Zhang was touched by the story, which ignited his dream of climbing.(洛茨曾分享过美国盲人登山者埃里克·维亨迈尔在2001年5月攀登珠穆朗玛峰的故事。这个故事感动了他，ignited了他的登山梦想)”中划线词后“his dream of climbing”和可推知，埃里克·维亨迈尔的故事点燃了张的登山梦想，结合选项，动词ignite与light同义，意为“点燃，激起”。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“He had begun preparing for the Qomolangma climb in 2019.
