All the Other Mothers Hate Me, by Sarah Harman This book got me out of a reading rut!

It turns out she’s not. I think? Maybe she is? Or, maybe she’s not but actually kind of is? What is a mother? The most impressive thing about this Booker Prize finalist is how Katie Kitamura plays with the description of events and toys with the reader without being overly clever about it all. She’s tight with details and answers, but generous with tricks and depth. — Andrew Limbong, correspondent, Culture Desk and host, Book of the Day Death of the Author, by Nnedi Okorafor In this book, the truth isn’t revealed until the very end. The plot jumps back and forth between two connected stories: one about a human author and one about a robot lost in human stories. The book explores some big themes, including fame and the power of storytelling. But one of my favorite things about it is that the robot storyline is really exciting.

The Musée d’Orsay, Paris Perhaps one of the most famous transformations is the Musée d’Orsay. The building originally served as a railway station, the Gare d’Orsay, constructed for the 1900 Paris World’s Fair. With the rise of longer trains, the station became unsuitable and was scheduled for removal. Instead, it was reborn in 1986 as a museum dedicated to art from the period 1848 to 1914. Its symbolic clock face and vast, light-filled nave (中殿) now house the world’s finest collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, beautifully harmonizing industrial heritage with artistic exhibitions. The Water Tower, Chicago Once a crucial part of the city’s 19th-century water system, this Gothic Revival limestone tower survived the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. After being repurposed, its interior was redesigned as a multi-story gallery and event space. It now houses the Lookingglass Theatre Company, and its observation deck offers unique views of the city. It stands as a symbol of staying power and adaptive reuse. The Teatro Amazonas, Manaus In the heart of the Amazon rainforest lies an unexpected treasure: a magnificent opera house built during the late 19th-century rubber boom (繁荣). When the boom ended, the theater was left untended for much of the 20th century. Its revival began in the 1990s. Today, fully restored, it serves as the dynamic home of the annual Amazonas Opera Festival, attracting world-class performers and audiences to this remote location. The Silk Exchange, Valencia This 15th-century building is a masterpiece of late Gothic civil architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage site. For centuries, it was the center of Valencia’s silk trade. While still a protected monument, its grand Hall of Columns now regularly hosts cultural events, from classical music concerts to temporary art exhibitions, making it a living institution within the city’s cultural landscape. 1．What’s special about the Musée d’Orsay? A．It was a museum built in 1900. B．It holds ancient art collections. C．It was a former railway station. D．It serves as a creation center. 2．Which building fell into decline due to a key industry collapse? A．The Musée d’Orsay. B．The Water Tower. C．The Teatro Amazonas. D．The Silk Exchange. 3．What do the four have in common? A．Their rebirth as cultural landmarks. B．Their survival from natural disasters. C．Their recognition as World Heritage sites. D．Their original design as industrial facilities. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．A 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍的是世界各地历史建筑通过被赋予新用途而得以保存，并继续服务其所在社区的现象。 1．细节理解题。根据The Musée d’Orsay, Paris部分“The building originally served as a railway station, the Gare d’Orsay, constructed for the 1900 Paris World’s Fair.(该建筑最初是奥赛火车站（Gare d’Orsay），为1900年巴黎世界博览会而建)”可知，奥赛博物馆曾是火车站。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据The Teatro Amazonas, Manaus部分“In the heart of the Amazon rainforest lies an unexpected treasure: a magnificent opera house built during the late 19th-century rubber boom (繁荣). When the boom ended, the theater was left untended for much of the 20th century.(在亚马逊雨林的中心地带，有一处意想不到的瑰宝：一座宏伟的歌剧院，建于19世纪末橡胶繁荣时期。繁荣结束后，这座剧院在20世纪的大部分时间里都无人问津)”可知，The Teatro Amazonas因关键产业的衰落而走向衰败。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据The Musée d’Orsay, Paris部分“Instead, it was reborn in 1986 as a museum dedicated to art from the period 1848 to 1914.(然而，1986年，它摇身一变，成为了一座专门展出1848年至1914年艺术作品的博物馆)”，The Water Tower, Chicago部分“After being repurposed, its interior was redesigned as a multi-story gallery and event space.(重新改造后，其内部被设计成了一个多层画廊和活动空间)”，The Teatro Amazonas, Manaus部分“Its revival began in the 1990s. Today, fully restored, it serves as the dynamic home of the annual Amazonas Opera Festival, attracting world-class performers and audiences to this remote location.(20世纪90年代，它开始重获新生。如今，经过全面修复，它成为了每年亚马逊歌剧节的活力举办地，吸引着世界级的表演者和观众来到这个偏远的地方)”和The Silk Exchange, Valencia部分“While still a protected monument, its grand Hall of Columns now regularly hosts cultural events, from classical music concerts to temporary art exhibitions, making it a living institution within the city’s cultural landscape.(尽管它仍是一座受保护的历史遗迹，但其宏伟的柱厅如今经常举办各种文化活动，从古典音乐会到临时艺术展览，使其成为瓦伦西亚文化景观中一座充满活力的机构)”可知，这四者的共同之处是它们作为文化地标得以重生。故选A。 Passage 1 （2026·四川成都·二模）Once considered a gateway to hell, the Central America Volcanic Arc is now a playground for volcano enthusiasts from around the world. Whether you tackle several volcanoes on a single trip or take them on one by one, these four volcanoes in Central America are ready for adventurers to explore. The Santa Ana Volcano in El Salvador The Santa Ana Volcano, also known as Ilamatepec, is the highest volcano in El Salvador. Standing at 7812ft above sea level, it’s the third-highest point in the country. Santa Ana’s crater is one of the largest in the world. Guided tours are mandatory for a popular four-hour hike to the summit that offers stunning views of Lake Coatepeque and the Pacific Ocean. Volcán Rincón de la Vieja in Costa Rica Situated in a 54 sq mile national park, the expansive Volcán Rincón de la Vieja, which translates to “old lady’s nook”, is an hour and a half from the town of Liberia. Eruptions in 2021 have closed off hikes to the 6217ft summit. There are shorter hiking loops around the park and to other peaks in the region, such as Volcán Santa Maria, which measures 6286ft. Barú Volcano in Panama Located in the Chiriqui Highlands, the dormant (休眠的) volcano and its seven craters are a birdwatching paradise. About 250 species of birds call Parque Nacional Volcán Barú home, including the elusive quetzal. The hike takes 10 to 12 hours. A popular option for experienced hikers is to start a guided ascent at night so that you arrive at dawn and enjoy stunning views at sunrise. The dry season(February to April)is the best time to go. Cerro Negro in Nicaragua Just 160 years old, Cerro Negro is the youngest volcano in Central America. Reaching heights of 2388ft, the Nicaraguan volcano located just outside of Leon is one of the most active in the region. But that hasn’t stopped a growing subset of people from hopping on specially designed boards and speeding down the black gravel slopes. Volcano surfing(or volcano surfing)is exactly what it sounds like, trading out the water for rocks and ocean spray for plumes of ash. It’s a perfect combination of pure joy and what most parents would call complete stupidity. Several agencies in the area offer tours to hike and surf the volcano. 1．Which activity is unique in Barú Volcano? A．Surfing. B．Birdwatching. C．Hiking. D．Swimming. 2．Which place is recommended for racing down slopes?

Volcano surfing is exactly what it sounds like, trading out the water for rocks and ocean spray for plumes of ash. It’s a perfect combination of pure joy and what most parents would call complete stupidity.(但这丝毫挡不住越来越多的人踏上特制滑板，从漆黑的砾石山坡上疾驰而下。火山冲浪，顾名思义，就是把海水换成嶙峋岩石，把海浪的水花换成火山的灰烬烟尘。这种体验，是纯粹的快乐，与在大多数父母眼中彻头彻尾的莽撞，完美交织在一起)”可知，尼加拉瓜的塞罗内格罗火山有火山冲浪的特色活动，是适合沿山坡疾驰而下体验火山冲浪的地点。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据The Santa Ana Volcano in El Salvador部分中的“Guided tours are mandatory for a popular four-hour hike to the summit that offers stunning views of Lake Coatepeque and the Pacific Ocean.(前往山顶的热门四小时徒步路线必须有向导陪同，沿途能欣赏到科特佩克湖和太平洋的绝美风光)”、Volcán Rincón de la Vieja in Costa Rica部分中的“There are shorter hiking loops around the park and to other peaks in the region, such as Volcán Santa Maria, which measures 6286ft.(公园周边及前往该区域其他山峰的路段设有短途徒步环线，比如海拔6286英尺的圣玛丽亚火山)”、Barú Volcano in Panama部分中的“The hike takes 10 to 12 hours. A popular option for experienced hikers is to start a guided ascent at night so that you arrive at dawn and enjoy stunning views at sunrise.(这段徒步行程耗时10至12小时，对于经验丰富的徒步者来说，一个热门选择是在夜间开启有向导陪同的攀登，以便在黎明时分抵达，欣赏日出的绝美景色)”以及Cerro Negro in Nicaragua部分中的“Several agencies in the area offer tours to hike and surf the volcano.(该地区有多家机构提供徒步并冲浪这座火山的游览项目)”可知，四座火山均明确提及有对应的徒步路线、徒步项目或徒步游览方式，因此四座火山的共同特征是均适合徒步旅行者前往体验。故选C。 Passage2 （2026·四川成都·二模）Community Garden Plot Rental Program The mission of the Fairfax County Park Authority Community Garden Plot Rental Program is to give Fairfax County residents the opportunity to grow flowers and vegetables.

Passage 10 （2026·四川德阳·二模）Around the world, historic buildings are being saved not just as museums, but by being given new purposes that serve their communities. The Musée d’Orsay, Paris Perhaps one of the most famous transformations is the Musée d’Orsay. The building originally served as a railway station, the Gare d’Orsay, constructed for the 1900 Paris World’s Fair. With the rise of longer trains, the station became unsuitable and was scheduled for removal. Instead, it was reborn in 1986 as a museum dedicated to art from the period 1848 to 1914. Its symbolic clock face and vast, light-filled nave (中殿) now house the world’s finest collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, beautifully harmonizing industrial heritage with artistic exhibitions. The Water Tower, Chicago Once a crucial part of the city’s 19th-century water system, this Gothic Revival limestone tower survived the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. After being repurposed, its interior was redesigned as a multi-story gallery and event space. It now houses the Lookingglass Theatre Company, and its observation deck offers unique views of the city. It stands as a symbol of staying power and adaptive reuse. The Teatro Amazonas, Manaus In the heart of the Amazon rainforest lies an unexpected treasure: a magnificent opera house built during the late 19th-century rubber boom (繁荣). When the boom ended, the theater was left untended for much of the 20th century. Its revival began in the 1990s. Today, fully restored, it serves as the dynamic home of the annual Amazonas Opera Festival, attracting world-class performers and audiences to this remote location. The Silk Exchange, Valencia This 15th-century building is a masterpiece of late Gothic civil architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage site. For centuries, it was the center of Valencia’s silk trade. While still a protected monument, its grand Hall of Columns now regularly hosts cultural events, from classical music concerts to temporary art exhibitions, making it a living institution within the city’s cultural landscape. 1．What’s special about the Musée d’Orsay? A．It was a museum built in 1900. B．It holds ancient art collections. C．It was a former railway station. D．It serves as a creation center. 2．Which building fell into decline due to a key industry collapse? A．The Musée d’Orsay. B．The Water Tower. C．The Teatro Amazonas. D．The Silk Exchange. 3．What do the four have in common? A．Their rebirth as cultural landmarks. B．Their survival from natural disasters. C．Their recognition as World Heritage sites.

Passage 1 （2026·四川成都·二模）Once considered a gateway to hell, the Central America Volcanic Arc is now a playground for volcano enthusiasts from around the world. Whether you tackle several volcanoes on a single trip or take them on one by one, these four volcanoes in Central America are ready for adventurers to explore. The Santa Ana Volcano in El Salvador The Santa Ana Volcano, also known as Ilamatepec, is the highest volcano in El Salvador. Standing at 7812ft above sea level, it’s the third-highest point in the country. Santa Ana’s crater is one of the largest in the world. Guided tours are mandatory for a popular four-hour hike to the summit that offers stunning views of Lake Coatepeque and the Pacific Ocean. Volcán Rincón de la Vieja in Costa Rica Situated in a 54 sq mile national park, the expansive Volcán Rincón de la Vieja, which translates to “old lady’s nook”, is an hour and a half from the town of Liberia. Eruptions in 2021 have closed off hikes to the 6217ft summit. There are shorter hiking loops around the park and to other peaks in the region, such as Volcán Santa Maria, which measures 6286ft. Barú Volcano in Panama Located in the Chiriqui Highlands, the dormant (休眠的) volcano and its seven craters are a birdwatching paradise. About 250 species of birds call Parque Nacional Volcán Barú home, including the elusive quetzal. The hike takes 10 to 12 hours. A popular option for experienced hikers is to start a guided ascent at night so that you arrive at dawn and enjoy stunning views at sunrise. The dry season(February to April)is the best time to go. Cerro Negro in Nicaragua Just 160 years old, Cerro Negro is the youngest volcano in Central America. Reaching heights of 2388ft, the Nicaraguan volcano located just outside of Leon is one of the most active in the region. But that hasn’t stopped a growing subset of people from hopping on specially designed boards and speeding down the black gravel slopes. Volcano surfing(or volcano surfing)is exactly what it sounds like, trading out the water for rocks and ocean spray for plumes of ash.
