Passage 1
(24-25七年级下·广东阳江阳东区·期中)
I am Judy, and I am 15 years old. Today, my mum is busy, so she asks me to go to pick up my 7-year-old sister Lily from school. When Lily sees me, she runs to me and hands me her water bottle, saying, “Sister, can you help me open it? The lid (盖子) is really tight (紧的).” She also tells me that she doesn’t drink any water all day and she is thirsty. After I open it, she drinks a lot and feels much better.
I ask her why she doesn’t ask her teacher for help. She says she thinks about it but doesn’t do it in the end. “I don’t want the teacher to think I can’t do it,” she says. “And she is always busy.”
This gets me thinking about why it’s not easy for us to ask for help. Sometimes, we may worry that others think we are not ▲ enough. We may also feel like we’re bothering (打扰) them. However, it’s important to remember that we all need help sometimes. We may need help with our homework, some problems at work, or even just opening a tight lid. When we ask for help, it shows that we’re not scared to say we need a helping hand.
So, the next time you meet a problem you can’t work out, think about asking for help. And maybe you will help someone one day too!

In the hospital, my job was hard. I cleaned floors and changed beds every day. Sometimes, I talked to the patients and played games with them. I also asked the doctors about their work. They told me, “Our job is tiring. We work long hours and see sad things. But we love it because we can help our community.” Their words made me want to be a doctor even more.

On the first day, I quickly realized things were different. Callie didn’t sit with me anymore, and I found it difficult to get along with my new classmates.
At lunchtime, I ended up sitting by myself until I met three new girls—Mia, Emma, and Alexis. They were so friendly, and soon, I started feeling more peaceful around them. As the days passed, I spent more time with them, and slowly, school didn’t seem so bad.
One day, we had a great idea: we decided to start a cupcake club! Everyone would add something different to the group. I’ve always loved baking (烘焙), so I was excited to join. Together, we planned to bake cupcakes and sell them to raise money for the school. This means we wanted to collect money by selling the cupcakes.
As time went on, my confidence grew. I realized I didn’t need to be part of the “popular” group to feel happy. Even though Callie and I weren’t as close as we used to be, I was OK with that. I had found new friends who liked me for who I really was.

Passage 5
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳宝安中学·期中)
Long ago in ancient China, there was a wise judge (法官) named Judge Li who was famous for his cleverness. One day, a farmer named Wang came to his court (法庭), crying, “Your Honor, my best horse is gone! I saw it in my neighbor Zhang’s horse barn (马棚). I know it’s mine because it has a white spot (斑点) on its forehead. But Zhang refuses to return it!”
Judge Li called Zhang, who argued, “This horse has been mine for years. Wang is lying!” The villagers disagreed—some believed Wang, while others trusted Zhang.
To solve the problem, Judge Li ordered the horse to be brought to the courtroom. He covered its head with a cloth and asked both men, “Describe the horse’s eyes in detail.”
Wang said at once, “Its left eye is slightly cloudy because it was hurt last year.” Zhang stopped, then guessed, “Its eyes are big and black, like all healthy horses!”
Judge Li removed the cloth, showing the horse’s cloudy left eye. Zhang’s face turned white. The judge said, “A true owner knows everything of his animal. The horse is Wang’s.”
But the story didn’t end there. A week later, the horse ran away into the mountains. Wang’s son ran after it but broke his leg. The villagers sighed, “What bad luck!” Wang, however, calmly said, “Who knows if this is truly bad luck?”
Soon after, a war broke out, and all young men were called to serve in the army—except Wang’s son, who didn’t have to go because of his injury (受伤). The villagers then understood: what seems like bad luck may turn into something good.

A.To hide the white spot and make the test more difficult.

3.How did Judge Li decide the real owner of the horse?

4.Why was Wang not worried about his son’s injury?

One sunny day, the staff members of a zoo gathered in a small meeting room. Their faces were filled with worry as they were facing a rather difficult problem - the kangaroos were found outside their cage (笼子) again. The head zookeeper, Mr. Brown, cleared his throat and said, “We’ve got to figure this out. How on earth are these kangaroos getting out?” After much discussion, they came to the conclusion that the cage was built too low. A staff member suggested, “Let’s raise (增加) the height of the cage from 1 to 2 meters. That should stop them!” Everyone nodded in approval, and that very afternoon, they got to work.
However, to their great surprise, the next day, the kangaroos were still at large, moving around the zoo as if they owned the place. Mr. Brown was shocked, “How is this possible?” Without hesitation, they decided to raise the cage to 3 meters.

In children’s eyes, mothers are perfect. In my mind, my mother is good at doing everything except (除了) cooking. I still remember what happened on my father’s birthday when I was young.
For the important day, I made a birthday card and prepared a beautiful song as my gift. And my mother made a special plan. She did some cleaning early in the morning. Then she began to cook a big meal. Three hours later, we were very hungry, but there were only two dishes on the table—a seafood salad and roast duck. We all wanted to have the roast duck as soon as possible because it was our favorite.
Unluckily, it looked terrible in color and tasted bad! I complained (抱怨) and only ate a little. However, my father didn’t complain at all. Instead (反而), he ate one more piece of the duck and smiled at my mother, “Good taste. I love it! Thank you, dear! It’s the best roast duck I have ever had!” My mother smiled happily and said, “Happy birthday, my dear!”
I couldn’t understand what my father said and did at that time. I thought he must have a taste problem. Ten years has passed and my father has become a 50-year-old man. He still loves the food my mother cooks, though she hasn’t become a good cook yet. As time went by, I came to know that no one is perfect, including my mother.

(24-25七年级下·广东深圳福田九校·期中)
Sage Birden, an animal rescuer, said helping animals in need is all about “being kind”. Her animal protection experience in Shanghai began in 2014 after she took care of a friend’s cat. When the cat left, a cat-shaped hole was left in her heart.
As a “proud” member of Shanghai’s animal protection group, Birden remembers one special experience. Volunteers worked together to save a dying kitten in Hangzhou.
“It was midnight, and the man who found the kitten didn’t know what to do. No hospital was open, and there was no vet (兽医) around. There was no way to get the kitten to a safe place, no milk for it. There was nothing.” Birden said.
“But I don’t give up easily.” Birden remembered. She asked other volunteers for help. Then she found a driver and made the driver talk to the man who found the kitten.
After driving for more than four hours at night, the kitten was finally taken to the person who would take care of it.
“Everyone was happy and said, ‘Yes!’ It made us feel that if we work together, we can make it work.” Birden said.
When talking about why she helps animals in need, Birden said it’s about “being kind”.
“Helping animals doesn’t mean you have to run after a truck that steals cats and dogs. But in everyday life, if a kitten is crying, at least you can bring it inside to get it dry and warm, and not let it die.” Birden said.

Passage 4
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳福田红岭·期中)
One rainy afternoon, I found a small dog trembling (颤抖) under a bench near my house. It looked scared and hungry. I decided to take it home, even though my parents had always said no to pets.
When I showed the dog to my mom, she sighed and said, “We can’t keep it. We’ re too busy to care for a pet.” I begged her to let it stay just for one night. Finally, she agreed.
I named the dog Lucky. I gave it a warm bath and some food. Lucky wagged (摇摆)its tail excitedly, as if thanking me. The next morning, my dad noticed Lucky sitting quietly in the corner. “It’s actually well-behaved (温顺的),” he said. Surprisingly, my parents agreed to keep Lucky until we found its owner if I promised (承诺) to take full responsibility (责任).
Over the next few days, Lucky became part of our family. It followed me everywhere and even learned to follow simple orders like “sit” and “stay.” One day, when I was upset about a math test, Lucky rested its head on my leg. It seemed to understand my feelings.
A week later, we put up “Lost Dog” posters around the neighborhood. No one called. My mom said, “Maybe Lucky was meant to be ours.” I hugged Lucky tightly, feeling thankful for this unexpected friendship.
Lucky taught me that kindness is a way to connect hearts, even between humans and animals.

Passage 1
(24-25七年级下·广东阳江阳东区·期中)
I am Judy, and I am 15 years old. Today, my mum is busy, so she asks me to go to pick up my 7-year-old sister Lily from school. When Lily sees me, she runs to me and hands me her water bottle, saying, “Sister, can you help me open it? The lid (盖子) is really tight (紧的).” She also tells me that she doesn’t drink any water all day and she is thirsty. After I open it, she drinks a lot and feels much better.
I ask her why she doesn’t ask her teacher for help. She says she thinks about it but doesn’t do it in the end. “I don’t want the teacher to think I can’t do it,” she says. “And she is always busy.”
This gets me thinking about why it’s not easy for us to ask for help. Sometimes, we may worry that others think we are not ▲ enough. We may also feel like we’re bothering (打扰) them. However, it’s important to remember that we all need help sometimes. We may need help with our homework, some problems at work, or even just opening a tight lid. When we ask for help, it shows that we’re not scared to say we need a helping hand.
So, the next time you meet a problem you can’t work out, think about asking for help. And maybe you will help someone one day too!

Passage 2
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳福田·期中)
Last summer, I got the chance to spend a month helping out in a hospital in Rwanda (卢旺达) with my parents. They work for a charity (慈善机构). I was interested in studying medicine in the future, so I decided to help in a hospital there for a month. I wanted to see if being a doctor was right for me.
That month changed my life. Rwanda was very different from the UK. People there had difficult lives, but they were always kind and helped each other. They smiled a lot and shared food. I learned that we in the UK sometimes forgot how lucky we were.
In the hospital, my job was hard. I cleaned floors and changed beds every day. Sometimes, I talked to the patients and played games with them. I also asked the doctors about their work. They told me, “Our job is tiring. We work long hours and see sad things. But we love it because we can help our community.” Their words made me want to be a doctor even more.
Now, I have a clear dream. When I finish school, I want to join groups like the Red Cross or Médecins Sans Frontières (a group that helps sick people in many countries). I want to spend my life helping people who really need it. I can’t wait to get started!

Passage 3
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳龙岗·期中)
Starting middle school made me really nervous (紧张的), especially when my best friend, Callie, suddenly joined the popular group. It felt like she left me behind, and I was alone. On the first day, I quickly realized things were different. Callie didn’t sit with me anymore, and I found it difficult to get along with my new classmates.
At lunchtime, I ended up sitting by myself until I met three new girls—Mia, Emma, and Alexis. They were so friendly, and soon, I started feeling more peaceful around them. As the days passed, I spent more time with them, and slowly, school didn’t seem so bad.
One day, we had a great idea: we decided to start a cupcake club! Everyone would add something different to the group. I’ve always loved baking (烘焙), so I was excited to join. Together, we planned to bake cupcakes and sell them to raise money for the school. This means we wanted to collect money by selling the cupcakes.
As time went on, my confidence grew. I realized I didn’t need to be part of the “popular” group to feel happy. Even though Callie and I weren’t as close as we used to be, I was OK with that. I had found new friends who liked me for who I really was.
Through the cupcake club, I found my own place in middle school. I learned that being true to myself was important. I felt happy and confident, knowing that with the support of my new friends, I could face any problems that came my way.

Passage 5
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳宝安中学·期中)
Long ago in ancient China, there was a wise judge (法官) named Judge Li who was famous for his cleverness. One day, a farmer named Wang came to his court (法庭), crying, “Your Honor, my best horse is gone! I saw it in my neighbor Zhang’s horse barn (马棚). I know it’s mine because it has a white spot (斑点) on its forehead. But Zhang refuses to return it!”
Judge Li called Zhang, who argued, “This horse has been mine for years. Wang is lying!” The villagers disagreed—some believed Wang, while others trusted Zhang.
To solve the problem, Judge Li ordered the horse to be brought to the courtroom. He covered its head with a cloth and asked both men, “Describe the horse’s eyes in detail.”
Wang said at once, “Its left eye is slightly cloudy because it was hurt last year.” Zhang stopped, then guessed, “Its eyes are big and black, like all healthy horses!”
Judge Li removed the cloth, showing the horse’s cloudy left eye. Zhang’s face turned white. The judge said, “A true owner knows everything of his animal. The horse is Wang’s.”
But the story didn’t end there. A week later, the horse ran away into the mountains. Wang’s son ran after it but broke his leg. The villagers sighed, “What bad luck!” Wang, however, calmly said, “Who knows if this is truly bad luck?”
Soon after, a war broke out, and all young men were called to serve in the army—except Wang’s son, who didn’t have to go because of his injury (受伤). The villagers then understood: what seems like bad luck may turn into something good.
1.Why did Judge Li cover the horse’s head with a cloth?
A.To hide the white spot and make the test more difficult.
B.To stop the horse from seeing its owner and running to him.
C.To make the horse feel comfortable during the test.
D.To test the men’s memory of the horse’s characteristics.
2.What does the underlined word “removed” in paragraph 5 mean?
A.Covered with. B.Took off. C.Burnt up. D.Light up.
3.How did Judge Li decide the real owner of the horse?
A.By letting the villagers decide on the owner. B.By testing the men’s knowledge of the horse.
C.By checking the government materials. D.By letting the horse freely choose its owner.
4.Why was Wang not worried about his son’s injury?
A.Because he didn’t truly love his own son.
B.Because he wanted to encourage his son to be strong.
C.Because he believed bad luck could bring good.
D.Because he didn’t care what the villagers thought.
5.What is the main lesson of this story?
A.Always trust the judge’s final decision. B.Good and bad luck often come together.
C.Never disagree with your neighbors. D.Horses are very important animals.
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.B 4.C 5.B
【导语】本文主要讲述了中国古代,李法官智断农夫王的马归属案,后王的儿子因追马受伤,却因伤躲过战争服役,揭示了“塞翁失马,焉知非福”的道理。
1.推理判断题。根据“‘A true owner knows everything of his animal. The horse is Wang’s.’”可知,李法官用布盖住马头,让两人详细描述马的眼睛,是为了考验两人对马特征的记忆,以此判断谁是马真正的主人。故选D。
2.词句猜测题。根据“He covered its head with a cloth”和“showing the horse’s cloudy left eye”可知,前文说用布盖住马头,后文展示了马的左眼,由此推出“removed”应意为“取下”,“took off”意为“脱掉”与之意思相近。故选B。

Passage 3
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳外国语学校·期中)
One sunny day, the staff members of a zoo gathered in a small meeting room. Their faces were filled with worry as they were facing a rather difficult problem - the kangaroos were found outside their cage (笼子) again. The head zookeeper, Mr. Brown, cleared his throat and said, “We’ve got to figure this out. How on earth are these kangaroos getting out?” After much discussion, they came to the conclusion that the cage was built too low. A staff member suggested, “Let’s raise (增加) the height of the cage from 1 to 2 meters. That should stop them!” Everyone nodded in approval, and that very afternoon, they got to work.
However, to their great surprise, the next day, the kangaroos were still at large, moving around the zoo as if they owned the place. Mr. Brown was shocked, “How is this possible?” Without hesitation, they decided to raise the cage to 3 meters.
But the following morning, the kangaroos were still freely going about. The staff members were alarmed. They were determined to go to all lengths and do everything possible to solve the problem, and this time, they decided to raise the cage to 10 meters.
Later, a giraffe, who was biting some leaves, struck up a conversation with some kangaroos. The giraffe, with a curious look in its eyes, asked, “Do you think they will go on raising your cage?” One of the kangaroos, with a naughty smile, replied, “Hard to say. If they continue forgetting to close the cage door, they could raise it to a hundred meters, and we would still be out here having an excellent time!”
1.Why did the zoo staff first decide to raise the cage of the kangaroos?
A.Because they realized that the cage was broken.
B.To stop the kangaroos from getting out of the cage.
C.To give the kangaroos more space to move around.
D.Because they worried about the safety of the kangaroos.
2.What does the underlined expression go to all lengths mean?
A.Try one’s best. B.Run a long way.
C.Spend lots of time. D.Find other solutions.
3.What can we learn from the kangaroo’s words in the last paragraph?
A.The zookeepers didn’t check the kangaroos’ cage door.
B.The zookeepers decided to raise the cage to 100 meters.
C.The kangaroos would always find a way to get out of the cage.
D.The kangaroos couldn’t explain how they escaped from the cage.
4.Which of the following would be the best title for this story?
A.The 10-Meter Mistake B.The Disappearing Kangaroos
C.The High-Rising Cage D.The Success of the Zookeepers
5.Which of the following pictures of Chinese idioms best describes the zookeepers’ behavior?
A.对牛弹琴 B.守株待兔
C.画蛇添足 D.缘木求鱼
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.A 4.C 5.D
【导语】本文主要讲述了动物园的工作人员因为袋鼠总是逃出笼子,而不断加高笼子高度的故事。最后袋鼠指出,是因为工作人员总是忘记关笼子门,所以无论笼子多高,它们都能逃出来。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“After much discussion, they came to the conclusion that the cage was built too low. A staff member suggested, ‘Let’s raise (增加) the height of the cage from 1 to 2 meters. That should stop them!’”可知,动物园的工作人员最初决定加高袋鼠的笼子是为了阻止袋鼠逃出笼子。故选B。
2.词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“They were determined to go to all lengths and do everything possible to solve the problem, and this time, they decided to raise the cage to 10 meters.”可知,工作人员决定不惜一切代价,尽一切可能解决袋鼠逃出笼子的问题,这次他们决定把笼子加高到10米。由此可推测,go to all lengths意为“竭尽全力,不遗余力”,与Try one’s best意思相近。故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段袋鼠的话“If they continue forgetting to close the cage door, they could raise it to a hundred meters, and we would still be out here having an excellent time!”可知,如果工作人员继续忘记关笼子门,即使他们把笼子加高到100米,袋鼠们仍然可以逃出来。由此可推断,是工作人员没有检查袋鼠的笼子门是否关好,才导致袋鼠总是逃出来。故选A。
4.标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了动物园的工作人员因为袋鼠总是逃出笼子,而不断加高笼子高度的故事。因此,C选项“The High-Rising Cage(不断加高的笼子)”作为标题最符合文章主旨。故选C。
5.推理判断题。“对牛弹琴”比喻对不懂道理的人讲道理,对外行人说内行话;“守株待兔”原比喻希图不经过努力而得到成功的侥幸心理,现也比喻死守狭隘经验,不知变通;“画蛇添足”比喻做了多余的事,非但无益,反而不合适;“缘木求鱼”字面解读为爬到树上去找鱼,比喻方向或办法不对头,不可能达到目的。动物园工作人员没有找到袋鼠跑出笼子的真正原因(没关门),而是一味地升高笼子高度,方向错误,不可能解决问题,就像“缘木求鱼”,所以D选项正确。故选D。

However, everything changed when he joined the school’s stamp club. The club members exchanged stamps from different countries and shared stories about them. Through the club, Tom learned that stamps were not just small pieces of paper but windows to the world.
Over three years, Tom collected over 1,500 stamps from 50 countries. His most treasured one was a Chinese stamp with a giant panda, sent by his pen pal, Li Hua, from Beijing. Tom carefully organized his stamp in thick albums. He even created a map to mark all the countries his stamps came from.
Tom spent weekends at the library reading books about world cultures and famous landmarks. “Stamps teach me geography, history, and even art,” Tom told his teacher. His dream was to organize a school stamp exhibition to inspire others to explore the world.
Last month, Tom’s hard work paid off. With his teacher’s help, he displayed his collection in the school hall.
Over 200 students visited, and Tom proudly explained each stamp’s story. “This hobby opens up the whole world to me,” he said.

It’s the best roast duck I have ever had!” My mother smiled happily and said, “Happy birthday, my dear!”

Passage 2
(24-25七年级下·广东广州越秀·期中)
Hi, I’m Fu Zai, a 6-month-old corgi (柯基). I’m China’s first corgi police dog! Some people think I can’t be a great police dog because of my short legs. But I’m here to tell you that they are wrong!
One day, when I was 2 months old, I was playing with my owner in the park. A policeman saw me and thought I had the talent to be a police dog. Then, I started my training. My short legs make me stand out! I can go under cars or get into and search small spaces easily. Bigger dogs can’t do this but I can! My only problem is that I can’t run very fast. When we are outside doing our job, sometimes my trainer needs to give me a piggyback (背上的) ride. It’s one of my favorite parts of the job.
Becoming a police dog is not easy. Dogs need to take lots of classes and exams.
Step 1: Go to a puppy kindergarten
·Puppies in the kindergarten should be younger than 6 months old.
·Dogs there learn lots of simple skills, like listening to orders, fighting and getting over obstacles (障碍).
Step 2: Get trained at a dog base
·Each dog will find a trainer at the base. They will work in pairs.
·The dogs need to choose a “job” and learn different skills, like finding missing people, smelling for dangerous things and so on.
Step 3: Take a big exam
·After three to six months of training, dogs will take an important exam.
·To pass it, they need to be strong and follow orders. Those who pass it can become police dogs.

A.He can run faster than other dogs.
B.He can search small spaces easily.
C.He can jump higher than bigger dogs.
D.He doesn’t need any training.
2.What does the underlined word “stand out” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.To be taller than others.
B.To be special in a good way.
C.To have difficulty walking.
D.To stand up on two legs..
3.Why does Fu Zai need to get piggyback rides from his trainer?
A.Because he is so tired that he can’t walk.
B.Because he likes to be close to his trainer.
C.Because he cannot run fast and needs help.
D.Because he enjoys the feeling of being carried.
4.Which simple skill isn’t learned in the puppy kindergarten?
A.B. C. D.
5.What can we learn about Fu Zai from the passage?
A.He isn’t confident in his short legs.
B.He is proud of his own job.
C.He is afraid of taking exams.
D.He likes being a pet dog more than a police dog.
【答案】1.B 2.B 3.C 4.D 5.B

1.细节理解题。根据“My short legs make me stand out! I can go under cars or get into and search small spaces easily. Bigger dogs can’t do this but I can!” 可知,福崽短腿的优势是能轻松进入并搜索狭小空间。故选B。
2.词句猜测题。根据后文“I can go under cars or get into and search small spaces easily. Bigger dogs can’t do this but I can!”可知,福崽的短腿能让它做到大狗做不到的事,这是一种优势,使它与众不同,stand out意思是“以好的方式与众不同”。故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据“My only problem is that I can’t run very fast. When we are outside doing our job, sometimes my trainer needs to give me a piggyback ride.”可知,因为福崽跑不快,所以需要训练员帮忙。故选C。

Passage 3
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳福田九校·期中)
Sage Birden, an animal rescuer, said helping animals in need is all about “being kind”. Her animal protection experience in Shanghai began in 2014 after she took care of a friend’s cat. When the cat left, a cat-shaped hole was left in her heart.
As a “proud” member of Shanghai’s animal protection group, Birden remembers one special experience. Volunteers worked together to save a dying kitten in Hangzhou.
“It was midnight, and the man who found the kitten didn’t know what to do. No hospital was open, and there was no vet (兽医) around. There was no way to get the kitten to a safe place, no milk for it. There was nothing.” Birden said.
“But I don’t give up easily.” Birden remembered. She asked other volunteers for help. Then she found a driver and made the driver talk to the man who found the kitten.
After driving for more than four hours at night, the kitten was finally taken to the person who would take care of it.
“Everyone was happy and said, ‘Yes!’ It made us feel that if we work together, we can make it work.” Birden said.
When talking about why she helps animals in need, Birden said it’s about “being kind”.
“Helping animals doesn’t mean you have to run after a truck that steals cats and dogs. But in everyday life, if a kitten is crying, at least you can bring it inside to get it dry and warm, and not let it die.” Birden said.
1.In which year did Sage Birden start her animal protection experience in Shanghai?
A.2012. B.2014. C.2016. D.2018.

D.There was a real hole in her heart like a cat shape.
3.What was the most important in saving the kitten?

4.Where was the kitten finally taken?
A.To a driver. B.To Birden’s home.
C.Back to the place where it was found. D.To the person who would look after it.
5.If Sage Birden sees a crying cat on the street, what is she likely to do?

Passage 4
(24-25七年级下·广东深圳福田红岭·期中)
One rainy afternoon, I found a small dog trembling (颤抖) under a bench near my house. It looked scared and hungry. I decided to take it home, even though my parents had always said no to pets.
When I showed the dog to my mom, she sighed and said, “We can’t keep it. We’ re too busy to care for a pet.” I begged her to let it stay just for one night. Finally, she agreed.
I named the dog Lucky. I gave it a warm bath and some food. Lucky wagged (摇摆)its tail excitedly, as if thanking me. The next morning, my dad noticed Lucky sitting quietly in the corner. “It’s actually well-behaved (温顺的),” he said. Surprisingly, my parents agreed to keep Lucky until we found its owner if I promised (承诺) to take full responsibility (责任).
Over the next few days, Lucky became part of our family. It followed me everywhere and even learned to follow simple orders like “sit” and “stay.” One day, when I was upset about a math test, Lucky rested its head on my leg. It seemed to understand my feelings.
A week later, we put up “Lost Dog” posters around the neighborhood. No one called. My mom said, “Maybe Lucky was meant to be ours.” I hugged Lucky tightly, feeling thankful for this unexpected friendship.
Lucky taught me that kindness is a way to connect hearts, even between humans and animals.

1.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“We can’t keep it. We’re too busy to care for a pet.”可知,父母总是拒绝养宠物是因为他们太忙了,没有时间照顾宠物。故选D。
2.推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Surprisingly, my parents agreed to keep Lucky until we found its owner if I promised to take full responsibility.”可知,当作者承诺承担全部责任时,父母同意先养着小狗直到找到它的主人。这一行为表明是作者主动承担责任的行为改变了父母的决定。故选B。

4.句意猜测题。根据文章第五段“No one called. My mom said, ‘Maybe Lucky was meant to be ours.’”可知,没有人打电话来认领小狗,母亲因此说“也许Lucky注定是我们家的”,结合上下文可推断母亲的意思是家里人从一开始就打算留下Lucky,只是之前没有合适的机会或理由。故选A。
