Lip-Lip attacked him whenever he could. He was bigger and stronger than White Fang and always won their fights. White Fang knew that he could not win a fight against Lip-Lip. He thought that he had to do something else to teach the dog a lesson. ①One day, he was playing at a riverbank when he saw Lip-Lip come. He suddenly got a good idea. He pretended to be hurt and unable to run fast. When Lip-Lip ran after him, he led Lip-Lip to the place where his mother stayed. When Lip-Lip got close to her, she turned Lip-Lip over and bit him until she let him go, but White Fang had a bigger problem. Lip-Lip was the leader of the other dogs. They followed him and obeyed him. None of them would become friends with White Fang. Whenever he came near them, they attacked him. ②He was never allowed to play with the other dogs. This made him unhappy and angry. He often forgot how to behave well. ③Several days later, White Fang saw a man take his mother in a small boat. He tried to follow them. He jumped into the river and swam after the boat. Another man came after White Fang in his boat. He lifted White Fang out of the water. White Fang tried to get away from the man, but the man hit him and threw him into the boat. ④White Fang was now very angry because he wanted to be with his mother. He forgot how powerful men were, and he bit the man. The man was so angry that he beat (打) White Fang again and again. The man hurt him badly. White Fang finally learned that he couldn’t bite a man because if he did, he would be beaten badly. —Adapted from White Fang 1．Why did White Fang always lose the fights with Lip-Lip? A．Because he was bigger and stronger than Lip-Lip. B．Because he was smaller and weaker than Lip-Lip. C．Because he wanted to make Lip-Lip happy. D．Because he wanted to make friends with Lip-Lip. 2．What does the underlined word “pretended” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese? A．准备 B．防止 C．假设 D．假装 3．From Paragraph 2, we know White Fang was ________. A．shy B．generous C．clever D．humorous 4．It’s better to put “White Fang was always alone.” in ________. A．① B．② C．③ D．④ 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了小狼White Fang的故事，包括它与Lip-Lip的争斗、被其他狗孤立、母亲被带走以及它自己的遭遇等。 1．第一段提到“He was bigger and stronger than White Fang and always won their fights”，说明White Fang总是输给Lip-Lip是因为它比Lip-Lip更小更弱。 2．第二段提到“He pretended to be hurt and unable to run fast. When Lip-Lip ran after him, he led Lip-Lip to the place where his mother stayed”，可知它假装受伤不能跑快，引Lip-Lip到它妈妈所在的地方，所以“pretended”意思是“假装”。 3．第二段中White Fang假装受伤引Lip-Lip到妈妈那里，让妈妈教训了Lip-Lip，说明它很聪明。 4．第三段提到因为Lip-Lip是其他狗的领袖，其他狗都不和White Fang做朋友还攻击它，所以“White Fang was always alone.”放在②处合适，这里能体现出它被孤立总是独自一人的状态。 My name is Henry Adams. When I was 27 years old, I worked in an office in San Francisco. One Saturday afternoon, I sailed my little boat out into the Bay of San Francisco. The strong wind pushed my boat out of the bay and into the Pacific Ocean. Luckily, I was saved by a British ship. The ship was heading to London. I had only one dollar when I arrived in London. I walked around Portland Place, trying to get some food. At that moment, the window of a nearby house opened and a man said to me, “Come in here, please!” I was taken to a beautiful room. There two old gentlemen were sitting and discussing something. The two gentlemen had made a bet (打赌), which I knew nothing about until later, but I will tell you about it now. The two gentlemen were brothers. For several days, they had been arguing about a very strange subject. One brother said, “If an honest and clever stranger arrives in London without a friend and without money, except for a £1,000,000 bank note (钞票), he will starve to death. If he goes to the bank or anywhere else to change this big note, the police will put him in prison. Everyone will think he stole it. The other brother answered, “No, I disagree.” The two gentlemen decided to end their argument with a bet. They selected me because I had an honest, clever face and because I was a stranger to England. One of them gave me an envelope and told me not to open it until I was in my hotel room. After leaving the house, I opened the envelope and saw that there was money inside of it! I rushed to the nearest restaurant. After eating, I tried to pay with the money but discovered that it was a bank note worth five million dollars! It made my head swim. No one could possibly cash (兑换现金) it. The owner said, “You can pay for the meal whenever you want, sir. I understand that you are a very rich gentleman. You like playing jokes on people by dressing like a poor man.” ——Adapted from The Million Pound Bank Note 1．Why was Henry Adams in London? A．He sailed his little boat all the way to London. B．The ship which saved him took him to London. C．He was asked to go to London on a business trip. D．A strong wind pushed his boat into Great Britain. 2．What did Henry do shortly after finding the bank note in the envelope? A．He found a place to eat. B．He checked in to the closest hotel. C．He went to a shop to buy a new suit. D．He rushed to a bank to change the note. 3．Which of the following is the correct order of what happened in the story? ①Henry was given an envelope.     ②Henry was taken into a beautiful room. ③The two gentlemen decided to make a bet. ④The two brothers kept arguing about a very strange subject. A．③④①② B．④②①③ C．③②①④ D．④③②① 4．What did the owner of the restaurant think of Henry? A．He thought Henry was a poor thief. B．He considered Henry a man of great wealth. C．He believed Henry had little sense of humour. D．He insisted Henry pay the meal with the bank note. 5．What is probably the best title of the passage? A．A stranger to England B．Sailing to London C．An unusual bet D．Stealing from two gentlemen 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文讲述了Henry Adams因风暴被一艘英国船救起并带到伦敦，随后被两位绅士选中参与一个关于百万英镑钞票的赌注的故事。 1．根据“Luckily, I was saved by a British ship. The ship was heading to London.”可知，Henry被一艘英国船救起，这艘船正前往伦敦。因此，Henry被带到了伦敦。 2．根据“After leaving the house, I opened the envelope and saw that there was money inside of it! I rushed to the nearest restaurant.”可知，Henry发现信封里的钞票后，他冲向最近的餐厅吃饭。 3．根据原文，事件顺序是：两兄弟争论→决定打赌→Henry被带进房间→Henry被给予信封。 4．根据“I understand that you are a very rich gentleman. You like playing jokes on people by dressing like a poor man.”可知，餐厅老板认为Henry是一个非常富有的人，只是喜欢开玩笑。 5．根据“The two gentlemen decided to end their argument with a bet.”可知，文章主要讲述了一个关于百万英镑钞票的不寻常赌注。 One morning in September 2018, after a bad thunderstorm, I found a baby bird on the ground outside our home. His eyes were tightly shut and he was shaking. The poor little bird was left behind by his flock (鸟群). Clearly, he was too young to be able to survive on his own. I placed him in a cardboard box with tea towels. I stayed up all night that day to research how to care for him. The next day, he woke with his mouth wide open to let out a sharp hunger call. I fed him termites (白蚁) and chirped (叽喳叫) at him. He chirped back, jumped into my hand and then fell asleep in my palm (掌心). To him, I was a mama bird. For the next 84 days, the cute little thing lived on me. Wherever I went, he would fly alongside me. He would make short flights from my hand to my head and then slide (滑行) down from my long hair to my hand to rest again. He went into hiding in my clothes while I learned his different calls. I never named him because he didn’t belong to me — I had to remind myself that he needed to return to the wild. Almost three months later, he was stronger, more confident and flying farther from me. His flock returned to the grasslands. It was time for him to go. Before I flew back to England in November for the holiday season, I decided that the bird should be allowed outside to fly daily. I took him out to the flock three times. On the fourth day, the bird flew away with them. When I returned in January, I would watch out for him whenever the finches (雀科小鸟) flew past. I still cry when I think of him. I wrote our story into a book, Fledgling. That, along with the lesson that any tiny animal can make a difference, will be his legacy (遗赠物). 1．According to the article, where did the baby bird like to rest? A．On the ground. B．In a cardboard box. C．On the tea towel. D．Inside the writer’s hand. 2．Why didn’t the writer name the bird? A．Because she considered it strange to name a bird. B．Because she could not come up with a satisfying name. C．Because she knew the bird would sooner or later fly back to its flock. D．Because she was sure that birds could not understand human language. 3．What was the writer’s purpose in writing the article? A．To introduce a kind of baby bird. B．To call on people to care for tiny animals. C．To encourage people to look for baby birds. D．To tell people how to take care of a baby bird. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 【导语】本文主要讲了作者救助了一只幼鸟，并和他共处了80多天。在把小鸟放归大自然之后，作者把他们之间的故事写进了一本书里。 1．第二段提到“He chirped back, jumped into my hand and then fell asleep in my palm”，第三段也提到“...slide down from my long hair to my hand to rest again”，说明这只幼鸟喜欢在作者的手上休息。 2．第三段明确提到“I never named him because he didn’t belong to me — I had to remind myself that he needed to return to the wild”，说明作者清楚小鸟早晚要回到自己的鸟群、回归野外，因此没有给它起名。 3．本文讲述了作者救助落难幼鸟、最终放归自然的故事，结尾作者点明感悟“with the lesson that any tiny animal can make a difference”，写这篇文章的目的是呼吁人们关爱小型动物。 Toad is very unhappy in prison. “This is the end!” he says. “It is the end of Toad. Popular, handsome Toad. Rich, clever Toad. I am a stupid animal,” he says. “And I miss my friends Badger, Rat and Mole!” Toad cries and cries in his cell (牢房) for weeks. He does not eat. But the prison guard has a daughter. She helps her father in the prison. She loves animals and she is sad when Toad cries. One day she asks her father, “Father! Toad is very unhappy. He’s thin, because he does not eat. Can I visit him?” “Okay,” replies her father. He doesn’t like Toad. So the guard’s daughter visits Toad and takes him some dinner. “Now, cheer up, Toad,” she says. “Stop crying and eat some dinner.” Toad smells the food. It smells good. But he lies on the floor, and cries and kicks. At last Toad stops crying and eats the dinner. It is delicious. Then he tells the guard’s daughter about Toad Hall and his adventures with the caravan, and his friends, Rat, Mole and Badger. “Toad Hall sounds beautiful,” she says. Toad tells the girl about the gardens and the big rooms at Toad Hall. When she leaves, Toad is happy again. He sings a little song,(Toad likes singing songs) and sleeps well. The girl likes Toad. She visits him every day. “Poor Toad!” she says. “In prison for twenty years! Because of a car!” One day she thinks of a plan to help Toad. “Listen, Toad,” says the girl. “I have a plan. My aunt is a washerwoman, she does the washing for the prisoners here. She comes to the prison on Monday, and returns with clean clothes on Friday. Today is Thursday. You are rich. If you give my aunt some money, you can have her dress and bonnet (女帽).” “Me? In a dress and bonnet?!” laughs Toad. “Wear her dress and bonnet. Then you can get away from the prison, disguised (伪装) as the washerwoman.” “Oh, no!” says Toad. “Toad of Toad Hall, disguised as a washerwoman? I don’t think so!” “Then Toad of Toad Hall can stay here in prison,” replies the girl. Toad is silent. Then he says, “You are a kind, clever girl, and I am a stupid toad. Please tell your aunt to come and visit me.” — Adapted from The Wind in the Willows 1．What does the guard’s daughter bring to Toad when she first visits him? A．Some medicine. B．Some clean clothes. C．Some dinner. D．A book about adventures. 2．The underlined sentence shows that Toad is ________. A．proud. B．modest. C．funny. D．brave. 3．Which of the following can be the best title for the chapter? A．The Adventures of Toad. B．Toad’s Terrible Prison Life. C．Friendship Between Toad and the Girl. D．The Girl’s Plan for Toad to Get Away 4．What will Toad most probably do next? A．He will stop talking to the girl. B．He will write a letter to his friends. C．He will stay in prison and think about his mistakes. D．He will agree to disguise as the washerwoman to get away. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．D 【导语】本文节选自《柳林风声》，讲述了蟾蜍（Toad）入狱后情绪低落，狱卒的女儿为他送食物、听他讲述冒险经历，并提出帮他伪装成洗衣女工越狱的故事。 1．文中提到“So the guard’s daughter visits Toad and takes him some dinner.”，说明狱卒的女儿第一次探望蟾蜍时带了一些晚餐。 2．根据文中 “Toad of Toad Hall, disguised as a washerwoman? I don’t think so！” 这句话，可以看出 Toad 认为自己的身份尊贵，不愿伪装成洗衣女工逃跑，体现了他骄傲、看重身份地位的性格特点。 3．文章核心是狱卒的女儿为蟾蜍制定的越狱计划，D选项“The Girl’s Plan for Toad to Get Away”（女孩帮蟾蜍逃跑的计划）最能概括本章内容。 4．女孩提出了越狱计划，蟾蜍最终沉默后表示女孩是善良聪明的，结合情节发展，他接下来最可能同意伪装成洗衣女工逃跑。 Jack, a teacher, was very tired after a long, hard day at school. He walked towards his house. Just then, Jack felt something uncomfortable in his throat (咽喉). He coughed and coughed, and something came out of his mouth—it was a heron’s (鹭) feather! “How strange!” he thought. “How did it get into my throat?” When he got home, he told his wife about it. His wife agreed that this was very strange. She also promised she wouldn’t say a word, or her husband would be the talk of the town! When she went outside, their neighbour waved, “Have you heard any news today?” “My husband was walking home and ... you won’t believe it ... some heron feathers came out of his mouth! But you must promise not to tell anyone!” replied Jack’s wife. The neighbour then went to the shop to buy some vegetables. He told the shopkeeper who loved to gossip all about what was going on in the town. “You know what,” said the neighbour,“Jack the schoolteacher was giving a lesson today ...and a whole heron suddenly came out of his mouth. But it’s a secret.” Then the cook came into the shop. “Did you hear about that?” the shopkeeper said in a low voice, “Jack the schoolteacher was buying pencils in the village shop—and suddenly a lot of herons flew out of his mouth! Ssh, don’t tell others!” The shopkeeper’s little boy heard this. He ran outside to tell his friends. Soon, the rumors (谣言) spread throughout the town! When Jack walked into the classroom the next morning, all his students were looking at him quietly—it was very unusual! Even more strangely, their parents were looking at him through the windows too. “Why are you all looking at me like that?” he asked. “We heard that yesterday a heron flew out of your mouth, and some other kinds of birds too. And a river of water with fish of all kinds in it! We want to see you do it again!” A boy spoke up. Jack sighed (叹气) and put his books on the desk. “Today’s lesson is a very important one!” he said. “I think you all need to learn it!” 1．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Jack coughed and he might be badly ill. B．Jack had a strange feeling about his wife. C．A heron’s feather came out of Jack’s mouth. D．A long school day made Jack uncomfortable. 2．What does the underlined word “gossip” probably mean? A．Keep secrets. B．Talk about others’ private things. C．Help others. D．Buy and sell vegetables. 3．In which order did the rumors develop? A．③②①④ B．③④①② C．①③②④ D．①④③② 4．What lesson did Jack want everyone to learn? A．It’s very silly to spread and believe rumors. B．We need to be good friends with all animals. C．We should take action to stop hurting others. D．It’s necessary to have classes with a clear mind. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了教师Jack从喉咙里咳出一根鹭鸟羽毛后，消息经妻子、邻居、店主等人之口不断添油加醋，最终演变成荒诞谣言的故事，揭示了谣言传播的危害性。 1．结合第二段最后一句“He coughed and coughed, and something came out of his mouth—it was a heron’s feather” 可知，这里的it指代Jack从嘴里咳出鹭的羽毛这件事，其余选项均与原文情节无关。 2．由划线单词所在句“He told the shopkeeper who loved to gossip all about what was going on in the town.”，以及后文店主随意修改故事、向外传播不实内容的情节可知，gossip指“私下谈论他人私事”。 3．根据第六段“some heron feathers came out of his mouth”可知，Jack的妻子将事件夸张为“咳出许多鹭的羽毛”，对应图③；由第八段中“a whole heron suddenly came out of his mouth” 可知，邻居将事件夸张为“一只完整的鹭从Jack嘴里出来”，对应图②； 由第九段中 “a lot of herons flew out of his mouth”可知，店主将事情夸张为“许多鹭从Jack嘴里出来”，对应图①；根据倒数第三段学生说“a heron flew out of your mouth, and some other kinds of birds too. And a river of water with fish of all kinds in it”可知，事件被不断夸张，最终变成“大量鸟类、鱼从Jack嘴里飞出”，对应图④。 结合图片顺序，谣言发展的正确顺序为③②①④。 4．结合全文，原本一件微不足道的小事被传成离谱的谣言，所有人都信以为真，由此可推知Jack想让大家学到的教训是传播和相信谣言是非常愚蠢的。 13-year-old Sarah sits in her yard, laying out her handmade crafts on the table. There are baskets, flower pots, and cloth bags—all made from recycled materials. They are not just creative objects; they’re part of Sarah’s project to make a greener community. Two years ago, Sarah would pass by a park near her house every day after school. Plastic bottles, empty cans, and broken toys littered the roadside. Seeing this, Sarah felt sad. One afternoon, Sarah noticed some kids selling orange juice at the park. People stopped to buy it. That was when Sarah got an idea. “Mom, what if we sell handmade crafts?” she asked excitedly that evening. “Then we can buy trees for our neighborhood with the money!” With her mom’s help, Sarah started making crafts with great interest, using old boxes, plastic bottles and empty cans. Every day after school, she sat in her yard, waiting for customers. At first, no one came. Sarah felt down, but she didn’t give up. Later, people began to stop by. A kind woman bought a cloth bag, saying it was perfect for shopping. Kids liked the flower pots, and one boy even asked Sarah to make him a special basket for his toys. By the end of the first month, Sarah had made $150! She bought 30 small trees. Together with her parents, they planted the trees around the park and along the sidewalks. Now, the neighborhood looks nicer, and the birds have more places to rest. Sarah even teaches her friends how to make eco-friendly crafts after school. They organize sales every month to raise money for new projects like bird feeders. This year, Sarah shared her story at a local community event. “Making a greener community is important,” she said proudly. “If everyone helps a little, we can make our life better.” She believes that no effort is too small when it comes to caring for the environment. 1．What did Sarah sell to make money? A．Small trees. B．Orange juice. C．Plastic bottles. D．Handmade crafts. 2．Look at the mind map. Which of the following can be put in ________? A．sad; sharing her story B．afraid; feeding birds C．bored; caring for nature D．nervous; recycling old boxes 3．Which of the following can best describe Sarah? A．Kind and honest. B．Creative and helpful. C．Strict and friendly. D．Quiet and hard-working. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．A Girl’s Dream Job B．A Community Park C．A Girl’s Green Project D．An Eco-friendly Habit 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文讲述13岁女孩Sarah用回收材料制作手工艺品售卖，筹钱种树美化社区，分享环保故事，践行绿色项目的经历。 1．第一段提到：“There are baskets, flower pots, and cloth bags—all made from recycled materials. They are not just creative objects; they’re part of Sarah’s project to make a greener community.”，第四段Sarah提出：“what if we sell handmade crafts?”，可知Sarah售卖手工工艺品赚钱。 2．思维导图中，“no customers came”对应第五段“no one came. Sarah felt down”，down意为“难过的”，对应选项A的sad；最后一个情绪“confident”对应最后一段：“This year, Sarah shared her story at a local community event.”，即sharing her story。 3．全文介绍Sarah用回收材料做手工艺品，体现创意；筹钱种树、教朋友做环保手工艺品，体现乐于助人，因此用“Creative and helpful”描述Sarah最贴切。 4．全文围绕Sarah的环保项目展开，核心是她用手工售卖筹钱种树、美化社区的绿色行动，因此最佳标题为“A Girl’s Green Project”。 My name is Luke. Before I was eight, I had met witches (女巫) twice. I’m just alive here to tell the story because of my wonderful Norwegian grandmother who knows all about witches. My parents and I lived in England for my father’s work. Just after my seventh birthday, a terrible event turned my life upside down. During a visit to Norway, our car lost control on an icy road. My parents were killed, leaving me alone to live with my grandmother. To help us forget our sadness, she told me stories. But the stories that scared me the most were about witches. She told me these were not fairy tales—they were all true. Witches were still around us, hiding among common people. One evening before bed, I sat at my grandmother’s feet. “Grandma, can you tell me something about witches?” I asked. “Let me tell you five strange stories about tricky witches. The first child was called Ranghild. She was led away by a tall lady in white gloves and disappeared forever.” she said. “What happened to the second kid?” I asked. “The girl called Solveig came home from school and ate an apple from a nice lady. The next morning, little Solveig was not in her bed. Her parents searched everywhere and then suddenly her father shouted, “There she is! Solveig was in the painting!” “He was pointing at the oil-painting” “How amazing it is! What about the other three?” Although I was very young, I didn’t believe everything my grandmother told me. Yet my grandmother spoke with such seriousness that I began to think about them. “Now it’s time for bed, sweetheart. Maybe we can talk about ways to deal with them later.” She said. “A witch won’t come through my window, will she?” I asked, “No, you are safe in your bed.” Yet, lying in the dark, the line between the fairy tale and real-life seemed to disappear, leaving me in a state of worries. —Adapted from The Witches 1．Why did Luke come to live with his grandmother? A．Because his parents sent him to Norway for school. B．Because his parents passed away in a car accident. C．Because he wanted to learn about witches from her. D．Because his grandmother was sick and needed help. 2．According to the passage, which words best describe Luke’s grandmother? A．Creative and honest. B．Energetic and funny. C．Shy and quiet. D．Loving and knowledgeable. 3．What can we infer from the text? A．Witches are easy to find because they look very common. B．Witches played a tricky role in Ranghild’s and Solveig’s stories. C．Ranghild became part of the oil-painting on the wall. D．Luke doubted and disbelieved his grandmother’s witch stories at last. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，节选自《女巫》一书。故事讲述了主人公卢克因父母车祸去世后与祖母生活，祖母通过讲述关于女巫的故事来帮助他缓解悲伤，但故事的真实感也让卢克在现实与幻想之间产生了不安。 1．文章第二段明确指出：在一次去挪威的旅途中，他们的汽车在结冰的路面上失控，父母遇难，留下Luke独自与祖母生活。 2．祖母通过讲故事帮助Luke忘记悲伤，体现出她对孙子的关爱。她能讲出五个关于女巫的离奇故事，细节丰富，说明她富有想象力且了解许多传说。 3．从祖母讲述的Ranghild被戴白手套的女人带走、Solveig吃了陌生女人的苹果后出现在画中这两个故事可知，女巫在其中扮演了诡计多端的角色，可以推断出B项正确。 The buses at the Uluru Sunset Viewing Area were parked in rows. Guides set up tables with drinks and snacks. “Ten minutes to go! Are we ready?” Our guide asked. “Five minutes, everyone! Get your cameras?” Then, the sun started to set. People from different countries—America, Britain, and France—all watched as the big rock turned bright red. Many took pictures in front of it, with different poses (姿势). After the sun went down, we got back on the bus. The guide smiled, “That was a pretty good sunset! But I’ve seen better ones.” Behind me, Adam, a student from England, put his earphones back in. “Well, that’s enough of that rock,” he said. I was tired. We woke up at five in the morning and drove over 100 miles to see the sunset at Uluru. Now, I felt a little empty. Why was this rock so special? Why did we come all this way? Maybe my sons would always remember this moment. But no, they had even missed it! They were busy eating at another tour group’s table because they had better chips. Nowadays, people can buy almost everything. But new things soon become old, and people get bored. So, they start traveling to find “special experiences”. Many people buy books like 1,000 Places to See Before You Die and mark the places they have visited. But famous sights are never the best part of a trip. Sometimes, they feel like a duty, like small, everyday details, not in famous buildings or scenery. So, throw your book away and forget about the checklist—there are surely more than 1,000 wonders in the world. 1．What did the people at the Uluru Sunset Viewing Area do? A．They danced around the rock. B．They took pictures of the sunset. C．They climbed to the top of Uluru. D．They watched a movie about Uluru. 2．Why did the writer feel a little empty after the sunset? A．The guide was not friendly. B．He didn’t have drinks or snacks. C．The sunset was not beautiful at all. D．People didn’t really care about the sunset. 3．The writer mentions the book 1,000 Places to See Before You Die to show that ________. A．these 1,000 places are all worth visiting before people die B．this book is very popular among travelers all over the world C．many travelers follow a fixed list instead of enjoying the trip itself D．it’s impossible to finish visiting all the places in a lifetime 4．Which is the writer’s opinion about travel? A．The beauty of a place is in small details. B．The more places you visit, the better. C．The best part is visiting famous places. D．You should visit at least 1,000 places. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者在乌鲁鲁观赏日落时，发现人们并未真正关注日落，而是更关注拍照等行为，由此引发作者对于旅行的思考，认为著名景点并非旅行最佳部分，旅行中细微之处才是美好所在。 1．文章第五段“People from different countries—America, Britain, and France—all watched as the big rock turned bright red. Many took pictures in front of it, with different poses”说明不同国家的人在观看大岩石变红，许多人在它前面拍照，姿势各异。所以人们在乌鲁鲁日落观赏区做的事是拍摄日落照片。 2．文章第六段“I was tired. We woke up at five in the morning and drove over 100 miles to see the sunset at Uluru. Now, I felt a little empty...But no, they had even missed it! They were busy eating at another tour group’s table because they had better chips.”表明作者早起赶路看日落，可孩子们却因吃薯片错过日落，结合前文人们看似更关注拍照等行为，可推断出作者感到空虚是因为人们并没有真正在意日落。 3．文章倒数第二段“Many people buy books like 1,000 Places to See Before You Die and mark the places they have visited.”以及最后一段“But famous sights are never the best part of a trip...So, throw your book away and forget about the checklist”说明很多人买这类书标记去过的地方，但著名景点并非旅行最佳部分，应扔掉书忘记清单，由此可知作者提及这本书是为了表明很多旅行者是按照固定清单旅行，而非享受旅行本身。 4．文章最后一段“But famous sights are never the best part of a trip. Sometimes, they feel like a duty, like small, everyday details, not in famous buildings or scenery.”表明著名景点并非旅行最佳部分，旅行中细微之处才美好，所以作者认为一个地方的美在于细微之处。 重难语篇练习 I ran into the forest to my favorite place and sat down on my special rock. I knew no one could find me. At last I had peace and quiet. I lifted my guitar and began to play. “Hi, Desha” Shocked, I found my brother James standing behind me. “Don’t you have a basketball game to watch?” I complained. “The game was almost over when I noticed you left. I thought you might like some company (陪伴).” “Company is the last thing I want. Can’t I have a little peace and quiet?” James studied me for a minute. “It’s hard having such a big family, isn’t it?” “Eliza’s always prying (打听) into my personal life. Yesterday I found her looking through my diary. Now everyone is in the living room watching the game. All I wanted to do was to watch a movie. But when I went to my room, Sara was there listening to the radio. I just want to be alone for a change.” James sighed (叹息) and said, “I left the same way when I was your age. But now...” “Now you have your own room. After Daniel went off to college, you didn’t have to share any more.” James smiled, “It is great to have my own room, but sometimes I really miss Daniel. We used to talk about everything—sports, school, friends... Although sometimes it seemed crowded, it was comforting to have someone else there.” “Yeah, ‘crowded’ is right.” I said. “I know.” James said. “But there are some good things that come out of it—we share memories and jokes no one else understands and we can support one another in face of difficulties.” I sighed. “Didn’t Sara stay up half the night with you last week helping you with your homework?” James asked. I nodded unwillingly. “Yeah, sometimes she can be all right.” “This place can be your ‘room’. Anytime you need peace and quiet. just come here,” James said, pointing at a rock.

But you must promise not to tell anyone!” replied the teacher’s wife. ⑦The neighbour then went to the shop to buy some vegetables. He told the shopkeeper who loved to gossip (说三道四) all about what was going on in the town. ⑧“You know what,” said the neighbour, “Ravi the schoolteacher was giving a lesson today...and a whole heron suddenly came out of his mouth. ________” ⑨Then the cook came into the shop. “Did you hear about that?” the shopkeeper said in a low voice, “Ravi the schoolteacher was buying pencils in the village shop—and suddenly a lot of herons flew out of his mouth! Shh, don’t tell others!” ⑩The shopkeeper’s little boy heard this. He ran outside to tell his friends. Soon, the rumors (谣言) had spread throughout the town! When Ravi walked into the classroom the next morning, all his pupils were looking at him quietly—it was very unusual! Even more strangely, their parents were looking at him through the windows too. “Why are you all looking at me like that?” he asked. “We heard that yesterday a heron flew out of your mouth, and some other kinds of birds too. And a river of water with fish of all kinds in it! We want to see you do it again!” A boy spoke up.

And a river of water with fish of all kinds in it!”，故事发展到第四步，从他嘴里飞出一只苍鹭，还有一些其他种类的鸟，还有一条河里有各种各样的鱼，对应图④。所以故事发展顺序为③①②④。 4．故事中谣言从“一根羽毛”演变成“一群鸟和一条鱼河”，最终全校学生和家长都来围观，说明谣言在传播中被不断夸大。Ravi叹息后说“今天的课非常重要”，意在让学生明白轻信和传播谣言是愚蠢的行为。 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题07 阅读理解之记叙文10篇 （江苏专用） 内容导航 内容速递 基础语篇练习 重难语篇练习 内容速递 本资料共10篇专项训练 基础语篇练习 稳扎稳打 必拿分数：聚焦稳拿分数题目，确保基础分值 重难语篇练习 突破瓶颈 争夺高分：聚焦高难度题目，争夺关键分数 基础语篇练习 The little wolf, White Fang, made an enemy of the dog, Lip-Lip. Lip-Lip attacked him whenever he could. He was bigger and stronger than White Fang and always won their fights. White Fang knew that he could not win a fight against Lip-Lip. He thought that he had to do something else to teach the dog a lesson. ①One day, he was playing at a riverbank when he saw Lip-Lip come. He suddenly got a good idea. He pretended to be hurt and unable to run fast. When Lip-Lip ran after him, he led Lip-Lip to the place where his mother stayed. When Lip-Lip got close to her, she turned Lip-Lip over and bit him until she let him go, but White Fang had a bigger problem. Lip-Lip was the leader of the other dogs. They followed him and obeyed him. None of them would become friends with White Fang. Whenever he came near them, they attacked him. ②He was never allowed to play with the other dogs. This made him unhappy and angry. He often forgot how to behave well. ③Several days later, White Fang saw a man take his mother in a small boat. He tried to follow them. He jumped into the river and swam after the boat. Another man came after White Fang in his boat. He lifted White Fang out of the water. White Fang tried to get away from the man, but the man hit him and threw him into the boat. ④White Fang was now very angry because he wanted to be with his mother. He forgot how powerful men were, and he bit the man. The man was so angry that he beat (打) White Fang again and again. The man hurt him badly. White Fang finally learned that he couldn’t bite a man because if he did, he would be beaten badly. —Adapted from White Fang 1．Why did White Fang always lose the fights with Lip-Lip?

When I was 27 years old, I worked in an office in San Francisco. One Saturday afternoon, I sailed my little boat out into the Bay of San Francisco. The strong wind pushed my boat out of the bay and into the Pacific Ocean. Luckily, I was saved by a British ship. The ship was heading to London. I had only one dollar when I arrived in London. I walked around Portland Place, trying to get some food. At that moment, the window of a nearby house opened and a man said to me, “Come in here, please!” I was taken to a beautiful room. There two old gentlemen were sitting and discussing something. The two gentlemen had made a bet (打赌), which I knew nothing about until later, but I will tell you about it now. The two gentlemen were brothers. For several days, they had been arguing about a very strange subject. One brother said, “If an honest and clever stranger arrives in London without a friend and without money, except for a £1,000,000 bank note (钞票), he will starve to death. If he goes to the bank or anywhere else to change this big note, the police will put him in prison. Everyone will think he stole it. The other brother answered, “No, I disagree.” The two gentlemen decided to end their argument with a bet. They selected me because I had an honest, clever face and because I was a stranger to England. One of them gave me an envelope and told me not to open it until I was in my hotel room. After leaving the house, I opened the envelope and saw that there was money inside of it! I rushed to the nearest restaurant. After eating, I tried to pay with the money but discovered that it was a bank note worth five million dollars! It made my head swim. No one could possibly cash (兑换现金) it. The owner said, “You can pay for the meal whenever you want, sir. I understand that you are a very rich gentleman. You like playing jokes on people by dressing like a poor man.” ——Adapted from The Million Pound Bank Note 1．Why was Henry Adams in London? A．He sailed his little boat all the way to London.

A．A stranger to England B．Sailing to London C．An unusual bet D．Stealing from two gentlemen One morning in September 2018, after a bad thunderstorm, I found a baby bird on the ground outside our home. His eyes were tightly shut and he was shaking. The poor little bird was left behind by his flock (鸟群). Clearly, he was too young to be able to survive on his own. I placed him in a cardboard box with tea towels. I stayed up all night that day to research how to care for him. The next day, he woke with his mouth wide open to let out a sharp hunger call. I fed him termites (白蚁) and chirped (叽喳叫) at him. He chirped back, jumped into my hand and then fell asleep in my palm (掌心). To him, I was a mama bird. For the next 84 days, the cute little thing lived on me. Wherever I went, he would fly alongside me. He would make short flights from my hand to my head and then slide (滑行) down from my long hair to my hand to rest again. He went into hiding in my clothes while I learned his different calls. I never named him because he didn’t belong to me — I had to remind myself that he needed to return to the wild. Almost three months later, he was stronger, more confident and flying farther from me. His flock returned to the grasslands. It was time for him to go. Before I flew back to England in November for the holiday season, I decided that the bird should be allowed outside to fly daily. I took him out to the flock three times. On the fourth day, the bird flew away with them. When I returned in January, I would watch out for him whenever the finches (雀科小鸟) flew past. I still cry when I think of him. I wrote our story into a book, Fledgling. That, along with the lesson that any tiny animal can make a difference, will be his legacy (遗赠物). 1．According to the article, where did the baby bird like to rest? A．On the ground. B．In a cardboard box. C．On the tea towel. D．Inside the writer’s hand. 2．Why didn’t the writer name the bird? A．Because she considered it strange to name a bird. B．Because she could not come up with a satisfying name. C．Because she knew the bird would sooner or later fly back to its flock. D．Because she was sure that birds could not understand human language. 3．What was the writer’s purpose in writing the article? A．To introduce a kind of baby bird. B．To call on people to care for tiny animals. C．To encourage people to look for baby birds. D．To tell people how to take care of a baby bird. Toad is very unhappy in prison. “This is the end!” he says. “It is the end of Toad. Popular, handsome Toad. Rich, clever Toad. I am a stupid animal,” he says. “And I miss my friends Badger, Rat and Mole!” Toad cries and cries in his cell (牢房) for weeks. He does not eat. But the prison guard has a daughter. She helps her father in the prison. She loves animals and she is sad when Toad cries. One day she asks her father, “Father! Toad is very unhappy. He’s thin, because he does not eat. Can I visit him?” “Okay,” replies her father. He doesn’t like Toad. So the guard’s daughter visits Toad and takes him some dinner. “Now, cheer up, Toad,” she says. “Stop crying and eat some dinner.” Toad smells the food. It smells good. But he lies on the floor, and cries and kicks. At last Toad stops crying and eats the dinner. It is delicious. Then he tells the guard’s daughter about Toad Hall and his adventures with the caravan, and his friends, Rat, Mole and Badger. “Toad Hall sounds beautiful,” she says. Toad tells the girl about the gardens and the big rooms at Toad Hall. When she leaves, Toad is happy again. He sings a little song,(Toad likes singing songs) and sleeps well. The girl likes Toad. She visits him every day. “Poor Toad!” she says. “In prison for twenty years! Because of a car!” One day she thinks of a plan to help Toad. “Listen, Toad,” says the girl. “I have a plan. My aunt is a washerwoman, she does the washing for the prisoners here. She comes to the prison on Monday, and returns with clean clothes on Friday. Today is Thursday. You are rich. If you give my aunt some money, you can have her dress and bonnet (女帽).” “Me? In a dress and bonnet?!” laughs Toad. “Wear her dress and bonnet. Then you can get away from the prison, disguised (伪装) as the washerwoman.” “Oh, no!” says Toad. “Toad of Toad Hall, disguised as a washerwoman? I don’t think so!” “Then Toad of Toad Hall can stay here in prison,” replies the girl. Toad is silent. Then he says, “You are a kind, clever girl, and I am a stupid toad. Please tell your aunt to come and visit me.” — Adapted from The Wind in the Willows 1．What does the guard’s daughter bring to Toad when she first visits him? A．Some medicine. B．Some clean clothes.

There are baskets, flower pots, and cloth bags—all made from recycled materials. They are not just creative objects; they’re part of Sarah’s project to make a greener community. Two years ago, Sarah would pass by a park near her house every day after school. Plastic bottles, empty cans, and broken toys littered the roadside. Seeing this, Sarah felt sad. One afternoon, Sarah noticed some kids selling orange juice at the park. People stopped to buy it. That was when Sarah got an idea. “Mom, what if we sell handmade crafts?” she asked excitedly that evening. “Then we can buy trees for our neighborhood with the money!” With her mom’s help, Sarah started making crafts with great interest, using old boxes, plastic bottles and empty cans. Every day after school, she sat in her yard, waiting for customers. At first, no one came. Sarah felt down, but she didn’t give up. Later, people began to stop by. A kind woman bought a cloth bag, saying it was perfect for shopping. Kids liked the flower pots, and one boy even asked Sarah to make him a special basket for his toys. By the end of the first month, Sarah had made $150! She bought 30 small trees. Together with her parents, they planted the trees around the park and along the sidewalks. Now, the neighborhood looks nicer, and the birds have more places to rest. Sarah even teaches her friends how to make eco-friendly crafts after school. They organize sales every month to raise money for new projects like bird feeders. This year, Sarah shared her story at a local community event. “Making a greener community is important,” she said proudly. “If everyone helps a little, we can make our life better.” She believes that no effort is too small when it comes to caring for the environment. 1．What did Sarah sell to make money?

Before I was eight, I had met witches (女巫) twice. I’m just alive here to tell the story because of my wonderful Norwegian grandmother who knows all about witches. My parents and I lived in England for my father’s work. Just after my seventh birthday, a terrible event turned my life upside down. During a visit to Norway, our car lost control on an icy road. My parents were killed, leaving me alone to live with my grandmother. To help us forget our sadness, she told me stories. But the stories that scared me the most were about witches. She told me these were not fairy tales—they were all true. Witches were still around us, hiding among common people. One evening before bed, I sat at my grandmother’s feet. “Grandma, can you tell me something about witches?” I asked. “Let me tell you five strange stories about tricky witches. The first child was called Ranghild. She was led away by a tall lady in white gloves and disappeared forever.” she said. “What happened to the second kid?” I asked. “The girl called Solveig came home from school and ate an apple from a nice lady. The next morning, little Solveig was not in her bed. Her parents searched everywhere and then suddenly her father shouted, “There she is! Solveig was in the painting!” “He was pointing at the oil-painting” “How amazing it is! What about the other three?” Although I was very young, I didn’t believe everything my grandmother told me. Yet my grandmother spoke with such seriousness that I began to think about them. “Now it’s time for bed, sweetheart. Maybe we can talk about ways to deal with them later.” She said. “A witch won’t come through my window, will she?” I asked, “No, you are safe in your bed.” Yet, lying in the dark, the line between the fairy tale and real-life seemed to disappear, leaving me in a state of worries. —Adapted from The Witches 1．Why did Luke come to live with his grandmother?

Guides set up tables with drinks and snacks. “Ten minutes to go! Are we ready?” Our guide asked. “Five minutes, everyone! Get your cameras?” Then, the sun started to set. People from different countries—America, Britain, and France—all watched as the big rock turned bright red. Many took pictures in front of it, with different poses (姿势). After the sun went down, we got back on the bus. The guide smiled, “That was a pretty good sunset! But I’ve seen better ones.” Behind me, Adam, a student from England, put his earphones back in. “Well, that’s enough of that rock,” he said. I was tired. We woke up at five in the morning and drove over 100 miles to see the sunset at Uluru. Now, I felt a little empty. Why was this rock so special? Why did we come all this way? Maybe my sons would always remember this moment. But no, they had even missed it! They were busy eating at another tour group’s table because they had better chips. Nowadays, people can buy almost everything. But new things soon become old, and people get bored. So, they start traveling to find “special experiences”. Many people buy books like 1,000 Places to See Before You Die and mark the places they have visited. But famous sights are never the best part of a trip. Sometimes, they feel like a duty, like small, everyday details, not in famous buildings or scenery. So, throw your book away and forget about the checklist—there are surely more than 1,000 wonders in the world. 1．What did the people at the Uluru Sunset Viewing Area do? A．They danced around the rock. B．They took pictures of the sunset. C．They climbed to the top of Uluru. D．They watched a movie about Uluru. 2．Why did the writer feel a little empty after the sunset? A．The guide was not friendly. B．He didn’t have drinks or snacks. C．The sunset was not beautiful at all.

A．these 1,000 places are all worth visiting before people die B．this book is very popular among travelers all over the world C．many travelers follow a fixed list instead of enjoying the trip itself D．it’s impossible to finish visiting all the places in a lifetime 4．Which is the writer’s opinion about travel? A．The beauty of a place is in small details. B．The more places you visit, the better. C．The best part is visiting famous places. D．You should visit at least 1,000 places. 重难语篇练习 I ran into the forest to my favorite place and sat down on my special rock. I knew no one could find me. At last I had peace and quiet. I lifted my guitar and began to play. “Hi, Desha” Shocked, I found my brother James standing behind me. “Don’t you have a basketball game to watch?” I complained. “The game was almost over when I noticed you left. I thought you might like some company (陪伴).” “Company is the last thing I want. Can’t I have a little peace and quiet?” James studied me for a minute. “It’s hard having such a big family, isn’t it?” “Eliza’s always prying (打听) into my personal life. Yesterday I found her looking through my diary. Now everyone is in the living room watching the game. All I wanted to do was to watch a movie. But when I went to my room, Sara was there listening to the radio. I just want to be alone for a change.” James sighed (叹息) and said, “I left the same way when I was your age. But now...” “Now you have your own room. After Daniel went off to college, you didn’t have to share any more.” James smiled, “It is great to have my own room, but sometimes I really miss Daniel. We used to talk about everything—sports, school, friends... Although sometimes it seemed crowded, it was comforting to have someone else there.” “Yeah, ‘crowded’ is right.” I said. “I know.” James said. “But there are some good things that come out of it—we share memories and jokes no one else understands and we can support one another in face of difficulties.” I sighed. “Didn’t Sara stay up half the night with you last week helping you with your homework?” James asked.
