The freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”.
I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C, thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part — particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold weather root vegetables — was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to deserve the early wake-up call.
The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 1 p.m., rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries; the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.
Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened (蔓上成熟的) promise, I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.
Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm was one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Ritz Carlton, where — luckily for me — I was to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.
1.What did the author think of her winter life in New York?
A.Exciting. B.Boring.
C.Relaxing. D.Annoying.
2.What did the author most expect to do in Florida?
A.Enjoy beaches and warm air.
B.Have a swim and taste wine.
C.Send up a prayer of gratefulness.
D.Visit a local farmer’s market.
3.What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?
A.They look appealing.
B.They are juicy.
C.They taste great.
D.They are of high quality.
4.What was most likely to be the author’s plan that evening?
A.To visit a farm.
B.To leave Ritz Carlton.
C.To enjoy a feast of tomatoes.
D.To buy more fresh vegetables.
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.A 4.C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者厌倦纽约寒冷枯燥的冬天,前往佛罗里达度假,最爱当地农贸市场的西红柿,并计划当晚享用西红柿美食的经历。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say ‘sunshine’.(今年冬天,寒冷的东北部并不是一个特别有趣的地方,所以当有机会去佛罗里达州的萨拉索塔度周末时,我立马就收拾好了行李)”可知,作者认为纽约的冬天并不有趣,即无聊。故选B项。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part — particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold weather root vegetables — was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to deserve the early wake-up call.(游泳池、品酒会和粉色的日落(在正常的傍晚时分,而不是下午4点)填满了整个周末,但最棒的部分 —— 尤其是对我这个因数月寒冷天气吃根茎蔬菜而变得迟钝的口味来说 —— 是早上7点去萨拉索塔农贸市场的冒险,事实证明,早起是值得的)”可知,作者在佛罗里达最期待做的事是参观当地的农贸市场。故选D项。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless.(不管它们在商店里看起来多诱人,一旦我带回家,它们总是干硬无味)”可知,纽约冬天卖的西红柿看起来很吸引人。故选A项。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm was one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Ritz Carlton, where — luckily for me — I was to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.(看到眼前的西红柿,我欣喜若狂,当我得知布朗格罗夫农场是丽思卡尔顿酒店新开的餐厅杰克・达斯迪的供应商之一时,我的喜悦更深了 —— 幸运的是,那天晚上我要在那里吃晚饭。即使不看菜单,我也知道我会点上面所有的西红柿)”可推断,作者当晚的计划很可能是享用一顿西红柿盛宴。故选C项。

For Connor Dennehy, a physical teacher at Cordello Avenue Elementary School, physical fitness is not about nurturing star athletes but building confidence through purposeful movement. He is especially dedicated to ensuring that students with special needs, who he says “deserve the same chance to find joy in movement as every other child,” can cultivate sustainable happiness.
While initially desiring to become a physical therapist (治疗师), he found himself particularly drawn to education through his mother and stepfather, both seasoned educators on Long Island. After completing his specialized training at SUNY Cortland, he enthusiastically joined this school in 2021, valuing the opportunity to work with young students. Rather than conducting standardized drills, he uses multi-sensory strategies: pairing verbal instructions for pushups with visual step cards, and using soft foam (泡沫) balls to help those with motor skill challenges feel successful. For students uninterested in movement, he leans into their strengths — like creating a “rhythm jump-rope” activity for a music-loving student who dislikes team sports.
Nathaniel Marner, the school principal, described Dennehy as a “forward-thinking educator who constantly invents creative ways to engage students.” This impact is perhaps best illustrated by the genuine feedback from his students. Fourth-grader Lopez also showed her ultimate approval, “He’s cool.” She further explained more about his appealing personality and the diverse activities he has introduced, from basic exercises to various sports.
Beyond the school’s walls, Dennehy extends his educational impact through coaching the junior volleyball team and instructing student participation in regional fitness programs. Yet his most rewarding professional moment remains fundamentally simple: surveying his gymnasium to witness his students actively engaged, each face reflecting the genuine joy of movement — a proof to his success in making physical education an accessible source of confidence and well-being.
1.What does Dennehy’s teaching particularly focus on?
A.Building lasting happiness for all students.
B.Ensuring equal joy for special-needs students.
C.Boosting young students’ confidence via movement.
D.Training talented students to become professional athletes.
2.What influenced Dennehy’s career choice?
A.The example of his family members.
B.His early training in physical therapy.
C.A desire to reform school sports programs.
D.An offer from Cordello Avenue Elementary.
3.Which of the following best describes Dennehy’s teaching style?
A.Strict and skill-focused. B.Diverse and personalized.
C.Multi-sensory and routine. D.Standardized and competitive.
4.Why does Dennehy consider his work worthwhile?
A.He sees his students enjoy moving. B.He has won several teaching awards.
C.He receives praise from the principal. D.He coaches a successful volleyball team.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.B 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了小学体育教师康纳·丹尼希通过个性化教学帮助学生建立自信并享受运动的故事。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段“For Connor Dennehy, a physical teacher at Cordello Avenue Elementary School, physical fitness is not about nurturing star athletes but building confidence through purposeful movement.(对于科德罗大道小学的体育老师康纳·丹尼希来说,身体素质的培养不在于培养明星运动员,而在于通过有目的的运动建立自信)”可知,丹尼希的教学重点是通过有目的的运动来提升学生的自信,而不是培养明星运动员。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段“While initially desiring to become a physical therapist (治疗师), he found himself particularly drawn to education through his mother and stepfather, both seasoned educators on Long Island.(虽然他最初想成为一名物理治疗师,但他发现自己的母亲和继父都是长岛经验丰富的教育工作者,这让他对教育产生了浓厚的兴趣)”可知,丹尼希的母亲和继父都是资深教育工作者,他们的榜样作用对他选择教育职业产生了重要影响。故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据第二段“Rather than conducting standardized drills, he uses multi-sensory strategies: pairing verbal instructions for pushups with visual step cards, and using soft foam (泡沫) balls to help those with motor skill challenges feel successful. For students uninterested in movement, he leans into their strengths — like creating a “rhythm jump-rope” activity for a music-loving student who dislikes team sports.(他没有进行标准化的训练,而是采用多感官教学策略:将俯卧撑的口头指令与视觉步骤卡片相结合,并使用软泡沫球帮助那些有运动技能挑战的学生获得成功感。对于对运动不感兴趣的学生,他发挥他们的长处——比如为一位喜欢音乐但不喜欢团队运动的学生设计了“节奏跳绳”活动)”以及第三段“Fourth-grader Lopez also showed her ultimate approval, “He’s cool.” She further explained more about his appealing personality and the diverse activities he has introduced, from basic exercises to various sports.(四年级学生洛佩兹也表示了她的极度认可:“他很酷。”她进一步解释了他吸引人的个性和他引入的多样化活动,从基础锻炼到各种运动)”可知,丹尼希的教学方式既个性化又多样化,能够根据学生的不同需求和兴趣设计教学活动。故选B。
4.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Yet his most rewarding professional moment remains fundamentally simple: surveying his gymnasium to witness his students actively engaged, each face reflecting the genuine joy of movement — a proof to his success in making physical education an accessible source of confidence and well-being.(然而,他最有价值的职业时刻仍然非常简单:巡视体育馆,看到学生们积极参与运动,每张脸上都洋溢着真正的喜悦——这证明了他成功地将体育教育变成了学生获取自信和幸福的途径)”可知,丹尼希认为他的工作最有价值的是看到学生们享受运动的过程。故选A。

They now call it “Batesian mimicry” — the amazing skill for survival I first saw in the whispering green of the Amazon. I am Henry Walter Bates. My story began not with butterflies, but as the eldest son of a stocking (长袜) maker in Leicester. Yet, a boy’s passion for collecting insects and an important meeting with Alfred Russel Wallace, Darwin’s future co-theorist, sent me toward what he called “the great engine of change” in the tropics.
For eleven years, the Amazon was my home, my school, and my proving ground. I faced constant dangers, from disease-carrying mosquitoes and snakes to flooding rains. I was struck down by both yellow fever and malaria. My routine was strict: mornings collecting, afternoons reading and preparing my finds. I was usually in bed by nine. My field journals, filled with detailed drawings and notes in dark ink, were my defense against the dampness and insects. I learned the local languages and customs, for without the crucial guidance of its people, I would have been completely lost in that vast wilderness.
It was a time of extraordinary variety. I brought back over 14,000 kinds of insects — 8,000 new to science. But the real wonder was not the count, but a pattern I noticed. It started with a puzzle: why could slow-flying butterflies like the Heliconius escape birds? Later I discovered they were poisonous and bitter-tasting. Then the deeper truth emerged: harmless Dismorphia had evolved to copy the bright warning colours of the Heliconius. These mimics, avoided by their natural enemies, survived to pass on their colours. Here was evolution by natural selection, written plainly on butterfly wings.
I published my paper in 1862, three years after Darwin’s On the Origin of Species. That this “mimicry”, discovered in remote jungles, could offer timely field support for his great theory remains my proudest achievement. They say I “wrote the book” on field study. I simply followed my fascination, one find at a time, from my father’s Leicester workshop into the heart of nature’s grandest design.
1.Who was Henry Walter Bates?
A.A stocking maker from Leicester. B.Darwin’s co-theorist on evolution.
C.A scientist who studied insects. D.A writer documenting tropical life.
2.What did Bates consider was essential to his life and work in the Amazon?
A.Keeping a strict daily schedule. B.Getting assistance from the locals.
C.Collecting and studying samples. D.Staying healthy in the rainforest.
3.What was the pattern Bates discovered?
A.Birds avoided eating bitter-tasting insects.
B.Slow-flying butterflies escaped birds’ attack.
C.The bright colours of butterflies signalled danger.
D.Harmless species copied the look of poisonous ones.
4.Which of the following best describes Bates?
A.Brave and passionate. B.Strict and humble.
C.Ambitious and sociable. D.Independent and proud.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.D 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍昆虫学家亨利·沃尔特·贝茨在亚马逊的研究经历,发现贝氏拟态并为进化论提供重要实地证据。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I am Henry Walter Bates. My story began not with butterflies, but as the eldest son of a stocking (长袜) maker in Leicester. Yet, a boy’s passion for collecting insects and an important meeting with Alfred Russel Wallace, Darwin’s future co-theorist, sent me toward what he called “the great engine of change” in the tropics. (我是亨利·沃尔特·贝茨。我的故事并非始于蝴蝶,而是作为莱斯特一名长袜制造商的长子开始的。然而,一个男孩对收集昆虫的热情,以及与达尔文未来的共同理论家阿尔弗雷德·拉塞尔·华莱士的重要会面,使我走向了他所说的热带地区的“伟大变革引擎”。)”可知,亨利·沃尔特·贝茨是一位研究昆虫的科学家。故选C项。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I learned the local languages and customs, for without the crucial guidance of its people, I would have been completely lost in that vast wilderness.(我学习了当地的语言和习俗,要是没有当地人的关键指导,我在那片广袤的荒野中会完全迷失方向。)”可知,贝茨认为在亚马逊的生活和工作中,得到当地人的帮助是至关重要的。故选B项。
3.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Later I discovered they were poisonous and bitter-tasting. Then the deeper truth emerged: harmless Dismorphia had evolved to copy the bright warning colours of the Heliconius.(后来我发现它们有毒且味道苦涩。随后更深层次的真相显现出来:无害的粉蝶进化出了模仿长翅蝶鲜艳警告色的能力。)”可知,贝茨发现的模式是无害物种模仿有毒物种的外观。故选D项。
4.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“For eleven years, the Amazon was my home, my school, and my proving ground. I faced constant dangers, from disease-carrying mosquitoes and snakes to flooding rains.(十一年来,亚马逊是我的家、我的学校和我的试验场。我不断面临危险,从携带疾病的蚊子、蛇到倾盆大雨。)”和第一段中的“Yet, a boy’s passion for collecting insects and an important meeting with Alfred Russel Wallace, Darwin’s future co-theorist, sent me toward what he called “the great engine of change” in the tropics. (然而,一个男孩对收集昆虫的热爱,以及与达尔文后来的理论合作者阿尔弗雷德·拉塞尔·华莱士的一次重要会面,将他引向了热带地区那被他称为“伟大的变革动力”的事物。)”以及最后一段中的“I simply followed my fascination, one find at a time, from my father’s Leicester workshop into the heart of nature’s grandest design. (我只是追随自己的热爱,一次一点地发现,从父亲在莱斯特的工作室,一步步走进大自然最宏伟设计的核心。)”可知,贝茨勇敢且充满热情。故选A项。

This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing.
Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road.
On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief.
Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded.
Until suddenly, time stood still.
We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind.
Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome!
On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind.
Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill.” Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation.
1.How did the author cross the bridge?
A.By taking mindful steps. B.By rushing across it bravely.
C.By using her sense of direction. D.By having the guide drag her over.
2.Why did the bears leave?
A.They were attracted by the natural setting. B.They were afraid of the noise of the rapids.
C.They were surprised at the group’s actions. D.They were threatened by the guide’s rocks.
3.Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf?
A.To pick up some souvenirs. B.To reflect on the journey.
C.To symbolize their teamwork. D.To check their observation skills.
4.What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Past the peak of youth. B.Too high to go down.
C.Out of place in society. D.Beyond physical limits.
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.B 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者与两位年过七旬的朋友的四天荒野探险经历。
1.细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs.(我盯着她的靴子,小心翼翼地沿着摇晃的圆木慢慢挪动。)”可知,作者盯着向导的靴子,小心翼翼地一步步走过摇晃的圆木桥。故选A项。
2.细节理解题。根据第六段的句子“As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away.(当它们开始向我们走来时,我们缓过神来,大声呼喊并挥舞登山杖。它们吃了一惊,停了下来,然后慢慢转身离开。)”可知,熊被作者一行人的呼喊和挥杖动作吓到,因此转身离开。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的句子“On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind.(在我们旅行的最后一个早晨,我们在森林里安静而沉思地走了一段之后,被要求带回一根“有意义的”木棍、岩石和树叶来分享哪些会“留存”在我们心中,哪些“震撼”了我们,以及我们愿意“放下”什么)”可知,向导通过这些自然物品引导大家反思旅程中的收获与感悟。故选B项。
4.词句猜测题。根据最后一段的语境,向导称赞她们的健康和积极态度,并表示希望自己三四十年后也能像她们一样。这些意外的话语温暖了作者的心,缓解了她对“over the hill”的恐惧。结合前文提到的“we were all in our seventies(我们都七十多岁了)”以及“ageing(变老)”这一主题,“over the hill”指的是已过青春巅峰、年老体衰的状态。故选A项。

When I wrote my first book three years ago, the words came naturally. Eight weeks of even rhythm (节奏) and it was finished with ease. So when I sat down to write my second book, I expected the same effortless flow. Instead, I found myself staring at a blinking (闪烁的) typing line that seemed to flash with quiet accusation. I couldn’t begin.
Day after day, I repeated the same routines: I set up the perfect workspace, blocked out hours for writing, and reread old pages that had once made me proud. None of it helped. For a while, I blamed myself, mistaking my procrastination (拖延) for laziness or lack of discipline. Still, the familiar motions kept me occupied while the work itself remained still.
Eventually, exhaustion softened my stress, and I stopped pushing. What if the resistance was trying to tell me something? I opened my journal and started writing — not about the book, but about why I couldn’t write it. The truth that poured out was simple and childlike: What if this book isn’t as good as the first? What if readers decide a woman like me has already said everything she knows? Beneath the delay, I found fear — not of the work, but of judgment. Procrastination had become a safety net; staying still meant avoiding being seen and possibly found lacking.
So I tried something different. I set a timer for five minutes and wrote whatever came. A sentence, half an idea, a small whisper of a scene. My hand moved first, and my mind followed. Piece by piece, those small beginnings grew into the book I had been afraid to start.
By the time I finished, I saw procrastination differently. It was never merely delay. It was a quiet dialogue between the part of me that wants to try and the part that fears the fall. What I once called wasted time was, in truth, the stillness before courage — the quiet reward of writing.
1.Why did the author keep following the same routines?
A.To look for creative inspiration. B.To overcome her procrastination.
C.To gain a false sense of progress. D.To improve her writing technique.
2.What actually prevented the author from writing?
A.Lack of new ideas. B.Pursuit of perfection.
C.Desire for social fame. D.Concern over disapproval.
3.How did the author manage to restart her writing?
A.By taking one step at a time. B.By focusing on small details.
C.By reflecting on the outcome. D.By following a flexible schedule.
4.What message does the author seem to deliver in the last paragraph?
A.Courage helps fight against fear. B.Stillness can be part of creativity.
C.Procrastination is a waste of time. D.Writers should avoid taking breaks.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.A 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者在写第二本书时遇到拖延问题,最终克服并重新认识拖延的故事。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“For a while, I blamed myself, mistaking my procrastination (拖延) for laziness or lack of discipline. Still, the familiar motions kept me occupied while the work itself remained still.(有一段时间,我责怪自己,把拖延误认为是懒惰或缺乏纪律。尽管如此,熟悉的动作让我忙碌起来,而工作本身却依然停滞不前)”可知,作者不断重复相同的日常是为了获得一种虚假的进步感,让自己忙碌起来。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Beneath the delay, I found fear — not of the work, but of judgment. Procrastination had become a safety net; staying still meant avoiding being seen and possibly found lacking.(在拖延的背后,我发现了恐惧——不是对工作的恐惧,而是对评判的恐惧。拖延已经成为一个安全网;静止不动意味着避免被看到,并可能被发现有所欠缺)”可知,实际上阻止作者写作的是对不被认可的担忧。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中“I set a timer for five minutes and wrote whatever came. A sentence, half an idea, a small whisper of a scene. My hand moved first, and my mind followed. Piece by piece, those small beginnings grew into the book I had been afraid to start.(我设定了一个五分钟的计时器,写下任何想到的东西。一个句子,半个想法,一个场景的轻声细语。我的手先动了,我的思想也跟着动了。一块一块地,这些小小的开始逐渐变成了我害怕开始的那本书)”可知,作者通过一次迈出一步(设定五分钟计时器,写下任何想到的东西)的方式重新开始了写作。故选A。
4.主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“What I once called wasted time was, in truth, the stillness before courage — the quiet reward of writing.(我曾经称之为浪费时间的东西,实际上是勇气之前的宁静——写作的安静回报)”可知,作者在最后一段似乎要传达的信息是:静止可以是创造力的一部分。故选B。

Passage 1
(2026·广东佛山·一模)
The first fortnight was tough - terrible pain and the rapid realization that running 200 marathons in 200 days would not be a walk in the park. But Steve James, a 65-year-old retired banker, has found his feet and reached the halfway mark — an average of 100 marathons in 100 days.
“In those first two weeks I was thinking: ‘What have I done?’” James said. “I had horrible blisters (水泡) for the first 10 days. The gout (痛风) struck all of a sudden, but I took some medicine and it went away. Now I feel fine.”
James’s progress along the coastlines of Great Britain is being tracked by experts from the University of Exeter, who are keen to find out the effects of such an extreme challenge on an older person.
The challenge is to do, on average, a marathon every day. Some days, it might be a bit less; others a bit more. There is no set route. James has a plan but adapts and changes it. As for fuel, he is not following the sort of diet an exceptional athlete might adopt. He has cereal, bacon, cake and fish and chips for dinner, washed down with a couple of beers.
“It’s all about routine, about getting up and leaving at the same time,” said James. “I love the physical challenge. I’m not especially talented at things, but I can keep going.”
The Exeter researchers assessed James before his departure and he sends data daily for them to analyze. They are studying his calorie intake, oxygen levels and muscle measurements. He has lost about 10kg but the team has seen no ill-effects to his health.
James, who is raising money for Cancer Research UK, passes the time by listening to music and is also learning Welsh. By the time he gets to Wales, he hopes to be able to order a beer in the language. He thinks the most difficult stretch physically will be the north coasts of Devon and Cornwall. “I’m kind of hoping that by then my body will be completely conditioned and I’ll be able to cope with that.”
1.What does paragraph 2 focus on?
A.The difficulties James faced. B.James’s solution to challenges.
C.James’s attitude to the running. D.The treatment James received.
2.What can be learned about James’s running plan?
A.It features a strict diet. B.It is made by researchers.
C.It is confirmed by other athletes. D.It changes based on circumstances.
3.What is James’s expectation for the journey ahead?
A.To run all over Wales. B.To be physically adapted.
C.To grow thinner and healthier. D.To raise money for cancer patients.
4.What message does the passage convey?
A.Exercise shapes one’s character. B.Health begins where the feet move.
C.Limits can be redefined at any age. D.Optimism unlocks human potential.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.B 4.C

Passage 2
(2026·广东大湾区·一模)
Yasmeen Lari looked out of the car window across Pakistan’s Siran Valley, saddened by the loss of its once-green landscape. A massive earthquake just one week prior had killed up to 79,000 people and turned the valley into mud and flattened buildings. The 65-year-old architect was there to lead settlement reconstruction, but she had never done disaster-relief work before. She was filled with anticipation after a two-hour flight and this five-hour drive.
Darkness had fallen before her driver pulled into the rescue base. At 1,500 meters, it was safer from aftershocks and rock slides than lower ground. When she stepped out of the car and was briefed on the villages needing immediate help, the enormity of the task ahead hit her full force.
Lari, Pakistan’s first female architect since 1964, was famous for designing modern glass and concrete towers in Karachi. Here, though, she’d design earthquake-resistant homes with stone and wood. In a simple cottage near the camp, she would spend the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers to help displaced families build new homes, even as temperatures dropped and snow fell.
“You can’t imagine the desolation (荒凉),” Lari recalls of those days in the mountains. Her team, often the first to arrive on the scene, were greeted with unexpected hospitality (热情款待), given the circumstances. On one visit, villagers pulled out their best chairs and table rescued from the earthquake. “They’d lost everything,” she says. “But they put this damaged table in front of us and covered it with a beautiful patterned cloth. And then they served us their World Food Programme food: biscuits, tea and eggs.”
With each passing day, Lari was re-engineering her identity — from “starchitect” to humanitarian. The profession had been good to her, but she had grown disappointed with projects for the rich. And doing disaster-relief work felt deeply right. So she made it her new mission.
1.Why was Lari in Siran Valley?
A.To help with the rebuilding. B.To study local housing styles.
C.To develop a travel project. D.To survey earthquake damage.
2.How did Lari feel after learning about the villages in need?
A.Calm. B.Eager. C.Beaten. D.Challenged.
3.What can be inferred from paragraph 3?
A.The cottage was too cold for work.
B.The cottage was designed for campers.
C.Lari adjusted her strategy to the situation.
D.Lari preferred traditional building materials.
4.What effect did Lari’s days in the mountains have on her?
A.She was inspired to value generosity.
B.She was motivated to refocus her career.
C.She was shocked by the villagers’ optimism.
D.She was troubled by the lack of relief supplies.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.C 4.B

Character: Jonathan Gull (海鸥)
Short wings. A falcon’s (隼) short wings! That’s the answer! What a fool I’ve been! All I need is a tiny little wing, all I need is to fold most of my wings and fly on just the tips alone! Short wings! He climbed two thousand feet above the black sea, and without a moment for thought of failure and death, he brought his forewings tightly in to his body, left only the narrow swept daggers of his wingtips extended into the wind, and fell into a vertical (垂直的) dive. Seventy miles per hour, ninety, a hundred and twenty and faster still. The wing-strain now at a hundred and forty miles per hour wasn’t nearly as hard as it had been before at seventy, and with the faintest twist of his wingtips he eased out of the dive and shot above the waves, a gray cannonball under the moon.
He closed his eyes to slits against the wind and rejoiced. A hundred forty miles per hour! And under control! If I dive from five thousand feet instead of two thousand, I wonder how fast...His vows of a moment before were forgotten, swept away in that great swift wind. Yet he felt guiltless, breaking the promises he had made himself. Such promises are only for the gulls that accept the ordinary. One who has touched excellence in his learning has no need of that kind of promise.
By sunup, Jonathan Gull was practicing again. From five thousand feet the fishing boats were specks in the flat blue water, Breakfast Flock was a faint cloud of dust motes, circling. He was alive, trembling ever so slightly with delight, proud that his fear was under control. Then without ceremony he hugged in his forewings, extended his short, angled wingtips, and plunged directly toward the sea. By the time he passed four thousand feet he had reached terminal velocity, the wind was a solid beating wall of sound against which he could move no faster. He was flying now straight down, at two hundred fourteen miles per hour. He swallowed, knowing that if his wings unfolded at that speed he’d be blown into a million tiny shreds of seagull. But the speed was power, and the speed was joy, and the speed was pure beauty. This was his life. Not to scavenge (搜寻食物) and follow boats, but to fly, to learn, and to be the finest gull the sky had ever known.
— Jonathan Livingston Seagull Adapted
1.What can we mainly say about Jonathan at first paragraph?
A.Flexible and perceptive. B.Courageous and persistent.
C.Reflective and Resolute. D.Creative and unyielding.
2.What does the underlined words “vows” refer to according to the passage?
A.Practice vertical dive to break speed record.
B.Perfect wingtip technique to fly much faster.
C.Give up the flight to be an ordinary seagull.
D.Follow flock tradition to forage near boats.
3.Which detail explains why Jonathan safely reached terminal velocity without wing damage?
A.He began his dive at five thousand. B.He held forewings tight and spread.
C.He focused his eyes on fishing boats. D.He felt delighted and controlled fear.
4.What does the novel want to convey?
A.Breaking conventions fuels our pursuit of life’s true value.
B.Overcoming boredom is the key to unlocking life’s brilliance.
C.Perfecting skills through persevered practice defines our life.
D.Casting off limits is the foundation for gaining true freedom.

【导语】本文是一篇文学作品节选。文章主要讲述了海鸥Jonathan钻研出短翼尖飞行的技巧,突破极限完成高速俯冲,摒弃平庸的誓言,执着追求飞翔的卓越与极致。
1.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Short wings. A falcon’s (隼) short wings! That’s the answer! What a fool I’ve been! All I need is a tiny little wing, all I need is to fold most of my wings and fly on just the tips alone! Short wings!(短翅膀!隼的短翅膀!这就是答案!我之前真是太傻了!我只需要一对小巧的翅膀,只需要把大部分翅膀收拢,只用翼尖飞行!短翅膀!)”可推测,海鸥Jonathan一直在思考如何飞得更快的问题,并且在找到答案的那一刻,他反思了自己过去的无知或错误。再根据“He climbed two thousand feet above the black sea, and without a moment for thought of failure and death, he brought his forewings tightly in to his body, left only the narrow swept daggers of his wingtips extended into the wind, and fell into a vertical (垂直的) dive.(他飞到黑海上方两千英尺的高空,丝毫没有顾虑失败与死亡,将前翅紧紧收拢贴紧身体,只留下狭长如弯刀的翼尖迎着风,随即一头扎进垂直俯冲)”可推知,海鸥Jonathan一旦认定了目标,就毫不犹豫地付诸行动,这体现了他的果决。故选C。
2.词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在语境“His vows of a moment before were forgotten, swept away in that great swift wind. Yet he felt guiltless, breaking the promises he had made himself. Such promises are only for the gulls that accept the ordinary.(片刻前立下的vows,早已被这股疾风卷得无影无踪。可他对违背自己的承诺毫无愧疚。这样的誓言,只适用于那些安于平庸的海鸥)”可推测,所谓的“vows”,指的是Jonathan在那一瞬间产生的怀疑,或是他决心要回归平庸的念头——即放弃他那危险的热情(也就是“飞行”),转而只做一只“普通的海鸥”。而这,正是一种“只属于那些安于平凡的海鸥”的承诺。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“He climbed two thousand feet above the black sea, and without a moment for thought of failure and death, he brought his forewings tightly in to his body, left only the narrow swept daggers of his wingtips extended into the wind, and fell into a vertical (垂直的) dive.(他飞到黑海上方两千英尺的高空,丝毫没有顾虑失败与死亡,将前翅紧紧收拢贴紧身体,只留下狭长如弯刀的翼尖迎着风,随即一头扎进垂直俯冲)”以及第三段“Then without ceremony he hugged in his forewings, extended his short, angled wingtips, and plunged directly toward the sea.(随即,他不假思索地收拢前翅,展开短小、带倾角的翼尖,径直冲向大海)”可推知,Jonathan紧紧收拢前翅、仅展开翼尖的飞行方式,让他安全达到极限速度且翅膀未受损。故选B。
4.推理判断题。根据全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了海鸥Jonathan一直打破普通海鸥安于觅食、平庸生活的常规,执着追求飞翔的极致与卓越。正是这种斗争和每一次的成功让他更加坚信自己的追求,并最终找到了他认为的生命真谛。由此推知,选项A“Breaking conventions fuels our pursuit of life’s true value(打破常规为我们追求人生的真正价值提供了动力)”不仅指出了Jonathan的行动,还点明了他行动背后的深层动机和最终收获,完美地捕捉了《海鸥乔纳森》这个故事鼓舞人心的核心精神。故选A。

The freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”.
I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C, thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part — particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold weather root vegetables — was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to deserve the early wake-up call.
The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 1 p.m., rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries; the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.
Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened (蔓上成熟的) promise, I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.
Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm was one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Ritz Carlton, where — luckily for me — I was to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.
1.What did the author think of her winter life in New York?
A.Exciting. B.Boring.
C.Relaxing. D.Annoying.
2.What did the author most expect to do in Florida?
A.Enjoy beaches and warm air.
B.Have a swim and taste wine.
C.Send up a prayer of gratefulness.
D.Visit a local farmer’s market.
3.What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?
A.They look appealing.
B.They are juicy.
C.They taste great.
D.They are of high quality.
4.What was most likely to be the author’s plan that evening?
A.To visit a farm.
B.To leave Ritz Carlton.
C.To enjoy a feast of tomatoes.
D.To buy more fresh vegetables.

For Connor Dennehy, a physical teacher at Cordello Avenue Elementary School, physical fitness is not about nurturing star athletes but building confidence through purposeful movement. He is especially dedicated to ensuring that students with special needs, who he says “deserve the same chance to find joy in movement as every other child,” can cultivate sustainable happiness.
While initially desiring to become a physical therapist (治疗师), he found himself particularly drawn to education through his mother and stepfather, both seasoned educators on Long Island. After completing his specialized training at SUNY Cortland, he enthusiastically joined this school in 2021, valuing the opportunity to work with young students. Rather than conducting standardized drills, he uses multi-sensory strategies: pairing verbal instructions for pushups with visual step cards, and using soft foam (泡沫) balls to help those with motor skill challenges feel successful. For students uninterested in movement, he leans into their strengths — like creating a “rhythm jump-rope” activity for a music-loving student who dislikes team sports.
Nathaniel Marner, the school principal, described Dennehy as a “forward-thinking educator who constantly invents creative ways to engage students.” This impact is perhaps best illustrated by the genuine feedback from his students. Fourth-grader Lopez also showed her ultimate approval, “He’s cool.” She further explained more about his appealing personality and the diverse activities he has introduced, from basic exercises to various sports.
Beyond the school’s walls, Dennehy extends his educational impact through coaching the junior volleyball team and instructing student participation in regional fitness programs. Yet his most rewarding professional moment remains fundamentally simple: surveying his gymnasium to witness his students actively engaged, each face reflecting the genuine joy of movement — a proof to his success in making physical education an accessible source of confidence and well-being.
1.What does Dennehy’s teaching particularly focus on?
A.Building lasting happiness for all students.
B.Ensuring equal joy for special-needs students.
C.Boosting young students’ confidence via movement.
D.Training talented students to become professional athletes.
2.What influenced Dennehy’s career choice?
A.The example of his family members.
B.His early training in physical therapy.
C.A desire to reform school sports programs.
D.An offer from Cordello Avenue Elementary.
3.Which of the following best describes Dennehy’s teaching style?
A.Strict and skill-focused. B.Diverse and personalized.
C.Multi-sensory and routine. D.Standardized and competitive.
4.Why does Dennehy consider his work worthwhile?
A.He sees his students enjoy moving. B.He has won several teaching awards.
C.He receives praise from the principal. D.He coaches a successful volleyball team.

They now call it “Batesian mimicry” — the amazing skill for survival I first saw in the whispering green of the Amazon. I am Henry Walter Bates. My story began not with butterflies, but as the eldest son of a stocking (长袜) maker in Leicester. Yet, a boy’s passion for collecting insects and an important meeting with Alfred Russel Wallace, Darwin’s future co-theorist, sent me toward what he called “the great engine of change” in the tropics.
For eleven years, the Amazon was my home, my school, and my proving ground. I faced constant dangers, from disease-carrying mosquitoes and snakes to flooding rains. I was struck down by both yellow fever and malaria. My routine was strict: mornings collecting, afternoons reading and preparing my finds. I was usually in bed by nine. My field journals, filled with detailed drawings and notes in dark ink, were my defense against the dampness and insects. I learned the local languages and customs, for without the crucial guidance of its people, I would have been completely lost in that vast wilderness.
It was a time of extraordinary variety. I brought back over 14,000 kinds of insects — 8,000 new to science. But the real wonder was not the count, but a pattern I noticed. It started with a puzzle: why could slow-flying butterflies like the Heliconius escape birds? Later I discovered they were poisonous and bitter-tasting. Then the deeper truth emerged: harmless Dismorphia had evolved to copy the bright warning colours of the Heliconius. These mimics, avoided by their natural enemies, survived to pass on their colours. Here was evolution by natural selection, written plainly on butterfly wings.
I published my paper in 1862, three years after Darwin’s On the Origin of Species. That this “mimicry”, discovered in remote jungles, could offer timely field support for his great theory remains my proudest achievement. They say I “wrote the book” on field study. I simply followed my fascination, one find at a time, from my father’s Leicester workshop into the heart of nature’s grandest design.
1.Who was Henry Walter Bates?
A.A stocking maker from Leicester. B.Darwin’s co-theorist on evolution.
C.A scientist who studied insects. D.A writer documenting tropical life.
2.What did Bates consider was essential to his life and work in the Amazon?
A.Keeping a strict daily schedule. B.Getting assistance from the locals.
C.Collecting and studying samples. D.Staying healthy in the rainforest.
3.What was the pattern Bates discovered?
A.Birds avoided eating bitter-tasting insects.
B.Slow-flying butterflies escaped birds’ attack.
C.The bright colours of butterflies signalled danger.
D.Harmless species copied the look of poisonous ones.
4.Which of the following best describes Bates?
A.Brave and passionate. B.Strict and humble.
C.Ambitious and sociable. D.Independent and proud.

This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing.
Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road.
On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief.
Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded.
Until suddenly, time stood still.
We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind.
Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome!
On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind.
Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill.” Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation.
1.How did the author cross the bridge?
A.By taking mindful steps. B.By rushing across it bravely.
C.By using her sense of direction. D.By having the guide drag her over.
2.Why did the bears leave?
A.They were attracted by the natural setting. B.They were afraid of the noise of the rapids.
C.They were surprised at the group’s actions. D.They were threatened by the guide’s rocks.
3.Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf?
A.To pick up some souvenirs. B.To reflect on the journey.
C.To symbolize their teamwork. D.To check their observation skills.
4.What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Past the peak of youth. B.Too high to go down.
C.Out of place in society. D.Beyond physical limits.

When I wrote my first book three years ago, the words came naturally. Eight weeks of even rhythm (节奏) and it was finished with ease. So when I sat down to write my second book, I expected the same effortless flow. Instead, I found myself staring at a blinking (闪烁的) typing line that seemed to flash with quiet accusation. I couldn’t begin.
Day after day, I repeated the same routines: I set up the perfect workspace, blocked out hours for writing, and reread old pages that had once made me proud. None of it helped. For a while, I blamed myself, mistaking my procrastination (拖延) for laziness or lack of discipline. Still, the familiar motions kept me occupied while the work itself remained still.
Eventually, exhaustion softened my stress, and I stopped pushing. What if the resistance was trying to tell me something? I opened my journal and started writing — not about the book, but about why I couldn’t write it. The truth that poured out was simple and childlike: What if this book isn’t as good as the first? What if readers decide a woman like me has already said everything she knows? Beneath the delay, I found fear — not of the work, but of judgment. Procrastination had become a safety net; staying still meant avoiding being seen and possibly found lacking.
So I tried something different. I set a timer for five minutes and wrote whatever came. A sentence, half an idea, a small whisper of a scene. My hand moved first, and my mind followed. Piece by piece, those small beginnings grew into the book I had been afraid to start.
By the time I finished, I saw procrastination differently. It was never merely delay. It was a quiet dialogue between the part of me that wants to try and the part that fears the fall. What I once called wasted time was, in truth, the stillness before courage — the quiet reward of writing.
1.Why did the author keep following the same routines?
A.To look for creative inspiration. B.To overcome her procrastination.
C.To gain a false sense of progress. D.To improve her writing technique.
2.What actually prevented the author from writing?
A.Lack of new ideas. B.Pursuit of perfection.
C.Desire for social fame. D.Concern over disapproval.
3.How did the author manage to restart her writing?
A.By taking one step at a time. B.By focusing on small details.
C.By reflecting on the outcome. D.By following a flexible schedule.
4.What message does the author seem to deliver in the last paragraph?
A.Courage helps fight against fear. B.Stillness can be part of creativity.
C.Procrastination is a waste of time. D.Writers should avoid taking breaks.

Passage 1

The first fortnight was tough - terrible pain and the rapid realization that running 200 marathons in 200 days would not be a walk in the park. But Steve James, a 65-year-old retired banker, has found his feet and reached the halfway mark — an average of 100 marathons in 100 days.
“In those first two weeks I was thinking: ‘What have I done?’” James said. “I had horrible blisters (水泡) for the first 10 days. The gout (痛风) struck all of a sudden, but I took some medicine and it went away. Now I feel fine.”
James’s progress along the coastlines of Great Britain is being tracked by experts from the University of Exeter, who are keen to find out the effects of such an extreme challenge on an older person.
The challenge is to do, on average, a marathon every day. Some days, it might be a bit less; others a bit more. There is no set route. James has a plan but adapts and changes it. As for fuel, he is not following the sort of diet an exceptional athlete might adopt. He has cereal, bacon, cake and fish and chips for dinner, washed down with a couple of beers.
“It’s all about routine, about getting up and leaving at the same time,” said James. “I love the physical challenge. I’m not especially talented at things, but I can keep going.”
The Exeter researchers assessed James before his departure and he sends data daily for them to analyze. They are studying his calorie intake, oxygen levels and muscle measurements. He has lost about 10kg but the team has seen no ill-effects to his health.
James, who is raising money for Cancer Research UK, passes the time by listening to music and is also learning Welsh. By the time he gets to Wales, he hopes to be able to order a beer in the language. He thinks the most difficult stretch physically will be the north coasts of Devon and Cornwall. “I’m kind of hoping that by then my body will be completely conditioned and I’ll be able to cope with that.”
1.What does paragraph 2 focus on?
A.The difficulties James faced. B.James’s solution to challenges.
C.James’s attitude to the running. D.The treatment James received.
2.What can be learned about James’s running plan?
A.It features a strict diet. B.It is made by researchers.
C.It is confirmed by other athletes. D.It changes based on circumstances.
3.What is James’s expectation for the journey ahead?
A.To run all over Wales. B.To be physically adapted.
C.To grow thinner and healthier. D.To raise money for cancer patients.
4.What message does the passage convey?
A.Exercise shapes one’s character. B.Health begins where the feet move.
C.Limits can be redefined at any age. D.Optimism unlocks human potential.

Yasmeen Lari looked out of the car window across Pakistan’s Siran Valley, saddened by the loss of its once-green landscape. A massive earthquake just one week prior had killed up to 79,000 people and turned the valley into mud and flattened buildings. The 65-year-old architect was there to lead settlement reconstruction, but she had never done disaster-relief work before. She was filled with anticipation after a two-hour flight and this five-hour drive.
Darkness had fallen before her driver pulled into the rescue base. At 1,500 meters, it was safer from aftershocks and rock slides than lower ground. When she stepped out of the car and was briefed on the villages needing immediate help, the enormity of the task ahead hit her full force.
Lari, Pakistan’s first female architect since 1964, was famous for designing modern glass and concrete towers in Karachi. Here, though, she’d design earthquake-resistant homes with stone and wood. In a simple cottage near the camp, she would spend the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers to help displaced families build new homes, even as temperatures dropped and snow fell.
“You can’t imagine the desolation (荒凉),” Lari recalls of those days in the mountains. Her team, often the first to arrive on the scene, were greeted with unexpected hospitality (热情款待), given the circumstances. On one visit, villagers pulled out their best chairs and table rescued from the earthquake. “They’d lost everything,” she says. “But they put this damaged table in front of us and covered it with a beautiful patterned cloth. And then they served us their World Food Programme food: biscuits, tea and eggs.”
With each passing day, Lari was re-engineering her identity — from “starchitect” to humanitarian. The profession had been good to her, but she had grown disappointed with projects for the rich. And doing disaster-relief work felt deeply right. So she made it her new mission.
1.Why was Lari in Siran Valley?

C.Lari adjusted her strategy to the situation.
D.Lari preferred traditional building materials.
4.What effect did Lari’s days in the mountains have on her?
A.She was inspired to value generosity.
B.She was motivated to refocus her career.
C.She was shocked by the villagers’ optimism.

He climbed two thousand feet above the black sea, and without a moment for thought of failure and death, he brought his forewings tightly in to his body, left only the narrow swept daggers of his wingtips extended into the wind, and fell into a vertical (垂直的) dive. Seventy miles per hour, ninety, a hundred and twenty and faster still. The wing-strain now at a hundred and forty miles per hour wasn’t nearly as hard as it had been before at seventy, and with the faintest twist of his wingtips he eased out of the dive and shot above the waves, a gray cannonball under the moon.
He closed his eyes to slits against the wind and rejoiced. A hundred forty miles per hour! And under control! If I dive from five thousand feet instead of two thousand, I wonder how fast...His vows of a moment before were forgotten, swept away in that great swift wind. Yet he felt guiltless, breaking the promises he had made himself. Such promises are only for the gulls that accept the ordinary. One who has touched excellence in his learning has no need of that kind of promise.
By sunup, Jonathan Gull was practicing again. From five thousand feet the fishing boats were specks in the flat blue water, Breakfast Flock was a faint cloud of dust motes, circling. He was alive, trembling ever so slightly with delight, proud that his fear was under control. Then without ceremony he hugged in his forewings, extended his short, angled wingtips, and plunged directly toward the sea. By the time he passed four thousand feet he had reached terminal velocity, the wind was a solid beating wall of sound against which he could move no faster. He was flying now straight down, at two hundred fourteen miles per hour. He swallowed, knowing that if his wings unfolded at that speed he’d be blown into a million tiny shreds of seagull. But the speed was power, and the speed was joy, and the speed was pure beauty. This was his life. Not to scavenge (搜寻食物) and follow boats, but to fly, to learn, and to be the finest gull the sky had ever known.
