专题02 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题01 人与社会 Passage 1 （浙江省新阵地联盟考试2024-2025学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题） As Elizabeth Stone once said, “Having children is like having your heart go walking around outside of your body.” You send them off to school and hope that the world treats them kindly because when they hurt, you hurt. Surely it’s inevitable that your child will experience hurt feelings at some point. So, it’s wise to be ready for those moments. But what truly prepares you for the moment when the child you love so much unexpectedly heals the wounds of your own inner child? A mom, who goes by Soogia, posted a video on TikTok explaining a phone call she received from a parent in her daughter’s classroom. The mom called to inform Soogia that their kids had been sharing lunch with each other. Soogia wasn’t prepared for what came next. The classmate’s mother informed her that her son loved the food Soogia’s daughter brought to school and wanted to learn how to cook it too. That may seem like a small thing to some, but the small gesture healed a little bit of Soogia’s inner child. Growing up as a Korean kid in California, Soogia had different experiences from her children. “I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it,” Soogia said through tears. “They don’t sit there eating their food alone, feeling ashamed and wishing that their fried rice was a bagel instead or something like that. And I know, it sounds so small and it sounds so stupid, but knowing that their experience at school is so different from mine in such a positive way is just so hopeful.” Soogia’s tearful video pulled at the heartstrings of her viewers who shared their thoughts in the comments. “These Gen Alpha babies really are a different, kinder generation. I love them so much,” someone revealed. 24．What is the purpose of quoting at the beginning of the passage? A．To illustrate the hard work of being a parent. B．To stress parents’ consistent concerns about their children. C．To introduce the story about a child’s growth that follows. D．To contrast the different feelings between parents and children. 25．Why did the classmate’s mother call Soogia? A．To ask for the lunch recipe her son loved. B．To invite Soogia to prepare lunch for the children together. C．To inform Soogia of her daughter’s understanding behavior at school. D．To express her appreciation for the lunch Soogia’s daughter brought. 26．What makes Soogia feel comforted? A．Her child can finally fit in with American society. B．Her child has gained friendship and recognition at school. C．Her child needn’t feel ashamed of their cultural background.

B．Adventurous and open-minded. C．Tolerant and ambitious. D．Friendly and ambitious. Passage 2 （2026·河南南阳·二模） For Sarah, a librarian in a small town in Oregon, the library was never just a place for books. But it wasn’t until the record-breaking heatwave last summer that she realized its true potential as a “community living room.” As temperatures climbed to dangerous levels, Sarah noticed an unusual influx of people. It wasn’t just the regular readers; it was elderly couples whose homes lacked air conditioning, exhausted delivery workers looking for a cool corner, and teenagers who usually spent their afternoons at the now-closed local park. The library, with its powerful cooling system and free Wi-Fi, became a sanctuary. One afternoon, Sarah spotted a man named David sitting near the back, staring blankly at a computer screen. After a brief conversation, she learned that David had recently lost his job and, without a home internet connection, was struggling to apply for new positions. Seeing his frustration, Sarah didn’t just point him to a shelf. She spent her lunch breaks for the next week helping him polish his resume and navigating complex job portals. “Libraries are the only places where you can exist without being expected to spend money,” Sarah observed. Inspired by the crisis, she started a “Career Corner” in the library, offering free printing services and weekly workshops. The initiative was a huge success, attracting local business owners who volunteered to conduct mock interviews. Months later, David walked in, not to escape the heat, but to share the news that he had secured a technician job. He handed Sarah a small potted plant — a token of gratitude. For Sarah, the library had evolved. It was no longer just a quiet space for silence, but a dynamic hub where lives were rebuilt. 24．What did Sarah find out about the library during the heatwave? A．It needed a more powerful cooling system. B．It could serve as a vital social center. C．It attracted fewer readers than expected. D．It was too small for the growing influx. 25．What does the underlined word “sanctuary” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．A quiet research lab. B．A busy marketplace. C．A historic monument. D．A safe shelter. 26．What can we infer about the “Career Corner” ? A．It was initially a government project. B．It focused mainly on young teenagers. C．It replaced the library’s traditional roles. D．It benefited from community support. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Sarah: A Librarian with a Green Thumb. B．David’s Journey: From Heat to a New Job. C．The Library: More Than Just a Quiet Space. D．Public Services: How to Survive a Heatwave. Passage 3 （2026·河南郑州·二模） Esther Kimani, a 29-year-old pioneer in agritech, is changing the lives of smallholder farmers across Africa. As the founder of Farmer Lifeline Technologies (FLT), she has applied artificial intelligence (AI) to fight against crop pests (害虫) and diseases, significantly reducing losses for rural farmers. Kimani's journey began in a small Kenyan village on the Aberdare Mountains. Witnessing firsthand the severe impact of pests and diseases on their crops — and consequently, their income — she understood early how agricultural losses could mean unmet basic needs like school fees and healthcare. Despite these challenges, Kimani became the first girl from her village to attend university, studying computer science. It was there that she recognized the potential of technology to solve rural farmers' struggles, and that's how FLT was born. In Kenya alone,7.5 million smallholder farmers lose up to 50% of their yield (产量) to pests and diseases annually — losses that could feed millions. Traditional solutions like hiring agricultural consultants or using drones (无人机) are prohibitively expensive. To solve this critical issue, she developed an AI-powered camera, which is set up on farms at no upfront cost. It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service (SMS) for $3 per month when pests or diseases are detected. A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers, who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations, but who often lack access to technology. "Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones, while women rely on basic feature phones," she notes. "Through SMS, we ensure women aren't left behind." Kimani's innovation has already impacted thousands of farmers, 78% of whom have reported a yield increase of over 36%. Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years. For Kimani, success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity — affording education, healthcare, and financial stability through improved yields. Kimani is not just building a company; she's reshaping the future of African agriculture. 24．Why did Kimani found FLT? A．To fund rural farmers. B．To transform farming. C．To expand AI industry. D．To research crop types. 25．How does the AI-powered camera help farmers? A．By sending them timely warnings. B．By connecting them to consultants. C．By controlling drones to scan crops. D．By driving pests away automatically. 26．What is an advantage of Kimani's innovation? A．Equal access. B．Tailored service. C．Large storage. D．Easy maintenance. 27．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A．Financial policies affect agriculture. B．African agriculture will take the lead. C．Kimani will pursue further education. D．Kimani's innovation powers a bright future. Passage 4 （2026·河南·二模） When Mia Woods retired at 61, she knew she needed a plan. “I was worried about losing my identity as a professional. What else can I be?” she thought. The year before, she had been told she had a mild memory problem. “I was trying to show myself that I could still think and be creative,” she says. So she decided to do — rather than be — something new: bake a pie every day for a year and give each pie away. “It made me reach out every day to somebody, so I wouldn’t be alone. And it gave me a routine,” she says. She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager, Mia had moved in with her aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect first pie,” she says. She went on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a homeless man. As word spread, she got known as “the pie lady”. For more than 30 years, Mia had worked as a city planner. “I’m a planner by nature, training and profession. What I really liked about it was that planning takes time, chaos, many different components, puts them all together and makes them into something manageable.” She sees the same in baking pies: “You take a bunch of ingredients and create something out of them.” Twelve years on, Mia has continued to invent new projects, including writing a letter a day, and painting pictures of her local sky. She is writing a book about the pie experience. But she has learned more than baking. “What really came out of it was the understanding that I was someone who could do new things,” she reflects. “And my professional identity wasn’t critical to who I am.” “Even now, after I have an encounter with somebody, I think: ‘There’s a person I wish I could give a pie to.’” says Mia. 24．What was Mia’s worry when she retired? A．Her serious mental problem. B．Her being cut off from others. C．Having no identity beyond career. D．Having to change her daily routine. 25．Why did Mia give her first pie to her aunt? A．She had given Mia a home. B．She had cared for Mia’s mum. C．She was the oldest in the family. D．She had built Mia’s stable character. 26．What do city planning and baking pies have in common according to Mia? A．Both require professional training. B．Both make sense of mixed elements. C．Both create something out of nothing. D．Both connect people with one another. 27．What is Mia’s reflection on her experience? A．Everyone in the world deserves a pie. B．New challenges redefine who we are. C．Opening up to changes takes courage. D．Simple acts can bring people together. Passage 5 （2026·河南南阳·二模） Jacques Richter, a teacher at Northwood School, was chatting with a parent when the mom mentioned three old bikes sitting disused and that her kids had outgrown them. It all started with that throwaway line. Richter felt a sudden idea. “What if we fix them up and pass them on?” It was 2024, Northwood’s 75th anniversary, and Richter wanted to do something meaningful. When he brought the idea to his cycling team, it landed in fertile ground. All team members loved the proposal and ran with it. “Let’s go for 75,” one student suggested. “One for each year.” And so the “75 Bikes” project was born. Word spread. Old bikes started showing up, loose frames, missing wheels and flat tires. The students didn’t see junk. They saw challenges. Every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, the workshop was full of life. Tools made noise. They made mistakes and bikes had to be taken apart more than once. They were not professional mechanics. But efforts paid off. Bit by bit, the pile of broken bikes thinned out, and the row of shiny, rideable bikes grew. Then they knew Keletso, a young man working at a local supermarket. His only way there was an old bike without brakes (刹车). The students picked out their best repair, a solid blue bike with smooth gears and strong brakes. When they handed it over, Keletso’s face broke into a wide smile. At that moment, the students understood something no classroom could teach. A bike isn’t just a bike. For someone like Keletso, it’s freedom. By year’s end, they had donated over 25 bikes, still short of 75, but they weren’t stopping. “We set out to give away bicycles,” Richter said. “What we got back was so much more.” 24．What inspired the initial idea of “75 Bikes” project? A．A casual chat. B．A team discussion. C．A careful plan. D．A student’s dream. 25．What does the underlined phrase “landed in fertile ground” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Got quickly forgotten. B．Received strong support. C．Caused a heated debate. D．Needed repeated checking. 26．What can be inferred from the students’ bike repair process? A．Efforts bridge the skill gap. B．Students are born mechanics. C．Repairing is beyond students. D．Professional guidance matters. 27．What does the story show? A．Opportunity knocks but once. B．Well begun is half done. C．Giving is better than receiving. D．It’s never too late to learn. 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1 （2026·河南信阳·二模） Celine Dion, one of the most iconic voices in music history, has captured audiences worldwide with her powerful vocal and emotional performances. Her journey from a small-town girl in Canada to a global superstar reflects her extraordinary talent, resilience, and optimism. Born in Quebec in March 1968 as the youngest of the 14 children in a musical family, Celine displayed her gift young. By 12, she had already co-written her first song with her mother. Her big break came when her talent was discovered by manager René Angélil. Deeply impressed by her voice, he mortgaged (抵押) his house to finance her debut album, marking the beginning of a lifelong professional partnership and eventual marriage. Celine’s career skyrocketed in the 1980s and 1990s. She rose to international fame with hits like The Power of Love and Because You Loved Me. However, it was her performance of My Heart Will Go On that cemented her status as a global icon, which earned her an Academy Award and multiple Grammy Awards and placed her name in households globally. Her performances at major events, such as the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, further highlighted her ability to capture massive audiences. It’s not that Celine’s life has not been without hardship. In 2016, she suffered the loss of René Angélil, her beloved. This period marked a profound personal transformation. She openly shared her grief and embraced fashion as a form of self-expression, using it to channel feelings of “strength, beauty, and femininity”. In recent years, Celine herself has faced a battle with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder causing severe muscle spasms. Despite this, she remains determined to return to the stage, declaring, “If I can’t run, I’ll walk; if I can’t walk, I’ll crawl…I won’t stop.” Celine Dion’s influence extends far beyond music. Her philanthropic efforts, including support for children’s charities and disaster relief initiatives, underscore her commitment to giving back to society. Her recent documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, offers a close glimpse into her life and struggles, inspiring millions with her resilience and optimism. 24．How did René Angélil fund Celine Dion’s first album? A．He secured a loan against his house. B．He sold his house and other possessions. C．He borrowed money from his friends. D．He organized a big concert to raise fund. 25．Which event further established Celine Dion’s legendary status? A．Her hit song The Power of Love. B．My Heart Will Go On for Titanic. C．Her documentary I Am: Celine Dion. D．Her performance at the Atlanta Olympics. 26．What can be inferred about Celine Dion’s attitude toward her challenges? A．She plans to greatly transform her music. B．She publicly seeks comfort from her fans. C．She remains committed to her performing. D．She prioritizes her fashion career over music. 27．What does the underlined word “philanthropic” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Ambitious. B．Tireless. C．Competent. D．Generous. Passage 2 （2026·河南信阳·二模） Steve Bagmanyan found his calling in a workshop filled with broken instruments. But every year, the shop brings both joy and heartbreak. Due to budget cuts, the number of technicians has dropped from 60 to just 11, leaving them to repair instruments for more than half a million students in Los Angeles public schools. “The work we do is important and needs to be preserved, but it’s becoming a dying craft,” said Bagmanyan,60, who runs the shop and handles piano repairs. “Children are our future, yet music programs are being cut across the country.” However, there is hope for the shop. The Last Repair Shop, a short documentary featuring Bagmanyan and three other technicians, recently won an Oscar for best documentary short film. The film combines their personal stories with reflections from students who have found comfort and joy in music. Few people even knew the shop existed before the documentary’s release. This workshop, in operation since 1959, is believed to be the last of its kind in the country. Bagmanyan and his team provide free instruments and repairs across the school district, often serving children from low-income families. For many of these children, public schools are their only source of musical instruments, which wealthier families can more easily afford. Since the release of the film, public support has soared. Donations have been made to fund more repairs and strengthen school music programs in Los Angeles. “People are inspired by what we do and want to support a dying art form,” said Ben Proudfoot, who co-directed the documentary. Bagmanyan knows that a poorly maintained instrument can discourage a child from learning. “If an instrument doesn’t work properly, a child might give up on music,” he said. “But when you know the instrument is going to a student who loves it, it’s impossible not to smile.” After 21 years of service, Bagmanyan says his cup is full, knowing that children may carry a love of music with them for a lifetime. “I was planning to retire,” he admitted. “But now I’ll rebuild the shop to what it once was and keep going a little longer.” 24．What is the challenge faced by Bagmanyan? A．Old instruments. B．Declining number of students. C．Low profitability. D．Shortage of skilled technicians. 25．What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The career achievements of Bagmanyan. B．The popularity of the documentary. C．The unique history of the school district. D．The importance of the repair shop. 26．How does the documentary impact the shop? A．It enhances the shop’s public image. B．It attracts new business opportunities. C．It helps sustain the shop’s operation. D．It provides education to the community. 27．What do the underlined words “his cup is full” in the last paragraph mean? A．He is ready to retire. B．He feels deeply satisfied. C．He is tired of the spotlight. D．He has become very wealthy. Passage 3 （2026·河南开封·二模） Growing up in the UK, I was utterly fascinated by the tiny world of insects. At five, my dog wrecked an ant nest I’d spent weeks building, so I set out to rebuild it better. I carved tiny dwellings for ants from twigs and leaf fragments, then moved on to fashioning teacups from silver foil for imaginary sprites. When my mother saw my work, she whispered, “The smaller your creations, the larger your impact will be.” As I matured, my designs grew fiendishly complex. Sculpting is no casual hobby; I often work 16 - hour stretches without breaks, and a single piece can take three months to finish. I must hold my breath during the entire sculpting process to avoid disturbing the fragile forms. Once, a fly landed on a tiny Cinderella carriage I was carving. Its wingbeat blew the delicate work away, and it was lost forever. Another time, I accidentally exhaled (呼气) on a minuscule Alice from Alice in Wonderland, and she vanished. Yet these failures taught me to refine my technique, leading to even more precise work on the second try. My micro - sculptures have taken me to extraordinary places. In 2012, I met the Queen, presenting her with a crown perched on the head of a pin. In 2013, I earned my first Guinness World Record for the smallest sculpture: a 24 - carat gold motorbike that fit inside a human hair. In 2017, I broke my own record with a human fetus sculpture measuring just 0.078 mm by 0.053 mm. Although I was diagnosed with autism as an adult, I was once labeled a “failure” by my schoolteachers. Now, I see my autism as a superpower — it has given me the laser focus to excel in my craft. I run workshops for neurodiverse kids, sharing my story and helping them build their own tiny worlds. The micro - kingdom has always been my happy place. I’ve tried larger sculptures, but small is where I shine. We must learn to value the little things in life, for they can hold immense power. 24．What can we infer from the comment of the author’s mother? A．Small art was less valuable than large-scale works. B．The author’s work was too delicate to be practical. C．The author was encouraged to pursue tiny world passion. D．The author’s focus on tiny things would limit his success. 25．What does the underlined word “fiendishly” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Extremely. B．Frighteningly. C．Surprisingly. D．Conveniently. 26．What specific achievement did the author accomplish in 2017? A．Creating a tiny gold motorbike in a hair. B．Being granted an audience with the Queen. C．Holding workshops for neurodiverse children. D．Breaking his own Guinness record with a fetus sculpture. 27．Why does the author view his autism as a “superpower”? A．To win public sympathy through it. B．To give intense focus for micro-sculpture. C．To allow easier communication with others. D．To make him popular among schoolteachers. Passage 4 （2026·河南信阳·二模） In an age shaped by social media and self-promotion, people admire a visible version of success, the kind that takes center stage and seeks constant applause. For an extended period, I was a willing participant in this illusion (错觉), measuring my own worth by the volume of recognition I received from others, only to feel disappointed when my quiet contributions went unnoticed. My perspective on value and success shifted greatly during my volunteer time at a small neighborhood library. It was a quiet place with calm yet purposeful daily activities, where the staff worked diligently without expectation of praise or recognition. My responsibilities there were modest and simple: reshelving books, helping a student find a suitable novel, or keeping the reading room quiet and peaceful for everyone. These ordinary and unsung routines, which were easily overlooked by most people, first struck me as trifling, totally lacking the applause and attention I had starved for. Over time, however, I began to see deeper value in these simple tasks. An elderly man came to the library every week, calling it his only shelter of peace in a noisy world. A small group of young locals depended on its quiet and comfortable atmosphere to take a break from their busy lives. I gradually came to realize that the library’s true significance lay not in great public recognition or praise, but in the steady, silent dedication (奉献) of its staff that made it a warm haven (港湾) for the whole community. Eventually, I learned that true competence operates quietly. It lies in the work done without an audience: the small, consistent efforts that make life easier for others. Success does not need a spotlight to be real. The most meaningful contributions are often made without expecting applause, yet they are profoundly valuable. 24．What did the author previously believe? A．Silent work deserved respect. B．Success hid in the dark. C．Visible efforts earned reputation. D．Recognition measured worth. 25．What does the underlined word “trifling” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Effortless. B．Challenging. C．Insignificant. D．Complicated. 26．How does the author illustrate the importance of the library in paragraph 3? A．By giving examples. B．By making contrast. C．By listing statistics. D．By quoting readers. 27．What is the main purpose of the text? A．To compare different types of success. B．To show the value of quiet devotion. C．To describe the experience at a library. D．To advocate seeking public recognition. Passage 5 （2026·河南濮阳·二模） Growing up in a small village in southern Ghana, Osei Boateng witnessed his family and neighbors struggle to access basic health care. For many villagers, the nearest hospital was a several-hour journey on rough roads. His grandmother’s death from a preventable illness deeply saddened him and fueled his desire to make a difference. Ghana faces significant health challenges: with a life expectancy of about 64, the country sees high death rates from treatable diseases like malaria and stroke. Determined to address this issue, Boateng studied diligently and earned a scholarship to Cornell University in the US, where he completed a master’s degree in Healthcare Administration. During his studies, he realized that his homeland lacked two critical things: health education and preventive care. Villagers were too busy making a living to travel to hospitals for regular check-ups. Early screening was rare, and many were unaware of the deadly risks posed by conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病). In 2021, Boateng founded the OKB Hope Foundation and transformed a van (厢式货车) into a mobile medical clinic. Several times a week, a team of professional medical workers travels to remote villages, offering free health check-ups, basic medical tests, and essential medicines. To date, the van has served over 4,000 people across more than 45 rural communities. Boateng’s team has also trained 20 local volunteers to collect health data, ensuring continuous monitoring of villagers’ well-being. Beyond physical health, he has launched a mental health program to reduce the symptom around depression and provide much-needed emotional support. For Boateng, bringing life-saving care to those in need has become the most meaningful part of his life. His remarkable efforts have gained widespread recognition, including the 2025 Global Citizen Waislitz Grand Prize. So far, the OKB Hope Foundation has served over 15,000 people in more than 100 remote communities in Ghana. Boateng’s work has not only saved lives but also shifted people’s healthcare mindset — from seeking treatment only when ill to hugging proactive prevention. He stands as an inspiring example of turning personal grief (悲痛) into lasting good for one’s nation. 24．Why did Boateng choose to study healthcare administration? A．To secure a well- paid career in the United States. B．To become a professional expert in medical fields. C．To help solve health problems in his homeland. D．To seek an effective cure for some rare diseases. 25．What prevented villagers from receiving early health screenings? A．Being too occupied with supporting their family. B．Suffering shortages of local medical equipment. C．Knowing nothing about screening appointments. D．Lacking knowledge of dangerous health conditions. 26．What can we learn about Boateng’s mobile medical clinic? A．It provides free medical services for rural residents. B．It was first donated by the OKB Hope Foundation. C．It mainly focuses on treating those serious diseases. D．It has expanded its services to other African countries. 27．What is Boateng’s greatest influence on his nation? A．His innovative healthcare ideas. B．His inspiring and exemplary role. C．His unbelievable personal efforts. D．His heartfelt devotion to his work. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题02 阅读理解（记叙文） 参考答案 主题01 人与社会 Passage 1【答案】24．B 25．D 26．C 27．A Passage 2【答案】24．B 25．D 26．D 27．C Passage 3【答案】24．B 25．A 26．A 27．D Passage 4【答案】24．C 25．A 26．B 27．B Passage 5【答案】24．A 25．B 26．A 27．C 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1【答案】24．A 25．B 26．C 27．D Passage 2【答案】24．D 25．D 26．C 27．B Passage 3【答案】24．C 25．A 26．D 27．B Passage 4【答案】24．D 25．C 26．A 27．B Passage 5【答案】24．C 25．A 26．A 27．B / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题02 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题01 人与社会 Passage 1 （浙江省新阵地联盟考试2024-2025学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题） As Elizabeth Stone once said, “Having children is like having your heart go walking around outside of your body.” You send them off to school and hope that the world treats them kindly because when they hurt, you hurt. Surely it’s inevitable that your child will experience hurt feelings at some point. So, it’s wise to be ready for those moments. But what truly prepares you for the moment when the child you love so much unexpectedly heals the wounds of your own inner child? A mom, who goes by Soogia, posted a video on TikTok explaining a phone call she received from a parent in her daughter’s classroom. The mom called to inform Soogia that their kids had been sharing lunch with each other. Soogia wasn’t prepared for what came next. The classmate’s mother informed her that her son loved the food Soogia’s daughter brought to school and wanted to learn how to cook it too. That may seem like a small thing to some, but the small gesture healed a little bit of Soogia’s inner child. Growing up as a Korean kid in California, Soogia had different experiences from her children. “I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it,” Soogia said through tears. “They don’t sit there eating their food alone, feeling ashamed and wishing that their fried rice was a bagel instead or something like that. And I know, it sounds so small and it sounds so stupid, but knowing that their experience at school is so different from mine in such a positive way is just so hopeful.” Soogia’s tearful video pulled at the heartstrings of her viewers who shared their thoughts in the comments. “These Gen Alpha babies really are a different, kinder generation. I love them so much,” someone revealed. 24．What is the purpose of quoting at the beginning of the passage? A．To illustrate the hard work of being a parent. B．To stress parents’ consistent concerns about their children. C．To introduce the story about a child’s growth that follows. D．To contrast the different feelings between parents and children. 25．Why did the classmate’s mother call Soogia? A．To ask for the lunch recipe her son loved. B．To invite Soogia to prepare lunch for the children together. C．To inform Soogia of her daughter’s understanding behavior at school. D．To express her appreciation for the lunch Soogia’s daughter brought. 26．What makes Soogia feel comforted? A．Her child can finally fit in with American society. B．Her child has gained friendship and recognition at school. C．Her child needn’t feel ashamed of their cultural background. D．Her child can share their favorite food with their classmates. 27．What can we infer about Soogia’s opinion of the new generation of children? A．Open-minded and inclusive. B．Adventurous and open-minded. C．Tolerant and ambitious. D．Friendly and ambitious. 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．C 27．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过一个妈妈Soogia分享的故事，讲述了她的孩子在学校分享午餐的经历，以及这一小事如何治愈了她内心的创伤，并引发了对新一代孩子开放和包容特质的思考。 24．推理判断题。根据第一段中“As Elizabeth Stone once said, ‘Having children is like having your heart go walking around outside of your body.’ You send them off to school and hope that the world treats them kindly because when they hurt, you hurt. Surely it’s inevitable that your child will experience hurt feelings at some point. So, it’s wise to be ready for those moments.(正如伊丽莎白·斯通曾经说过，“有了孩子就像你的心在体外行走。”你把他们送去学校，希望世界善待他们，因为当他们受伤时，你也会受伤。当然，你的孩子迟早会经历一些伤心的时刻。所以，为这些时刻做好准备是明智的)”可推知，文章开头引用Elizabeth Stone的话是为了强调父母对孩子持续的关心，即孩子受伤时父母也会感到伤心。故选B项。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A mom, who goes by Soogia, posted a  video on TikTok explaining a phone call she received from a parent in  her daughter’s classroom. The mom called to inform Soogia that their  kids had been sharing lunch with each other.(一位名叫Soogia的妈妈在TikTok上发布了一段视频，解释了她在女儿的教室里接到一位家长的电话。这位母亲打电话告诉苏吉亚，他们的孩子们一直在一起吃午饭)”及第三段中“The classmate’s mother informed her that her son loved the food Soogia’s daughter brought to school and wanted to learn how to cook it too.(同学的妈妈告诉她，她的儿子很喜欢Soogia的女儿带到学校的食物，也想学做这道菜)”可知，同学的母亲打电话给Soogia，对Soogia女儿带来的午餐表示感谢。故选D项。 26．细节理解题。根据第四段中“Growing up as a Korean kid in California, Soogia had different experiences from her children.(作为一个在加州长大的韩国孩子，Soogia的经历与她的孩子们不同)”及第五段中““I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it,” Soogia said through tears.(“我想我从来没有想过我的孩子们会成为这一代的孩子，他们上学时不仅骄傲地吃饭，而且还和其他孩子分享他们的食物，他们是如此开放和接受，”Soogia流着泪说)”和“They don’t sit there eating their food alone, feeling ashamed and wishing that their fried rice was a bagel instead or something like that.(他们不会独自坐在那里吃东西，感到羞愧，希望他们的炒饭是百吉饼或类似的东西)”可知，妈妈Soogia因为自己的韩国文化背景，曾经没有自信，而且时常为自己的饭菜感到羞愧，而女儿与之截然不同的行为，这让她倍感治愈。故选C项。 27．推理判断题。根据第五段中“I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it(我想我从来没有想过我的孩子们会成为这样的一代孩子，他们在上学的时候不仅自豪地吃东西，而且还和其他孩子分享他们的食物，他们是如此开放和欣然接受)”、最后一段中“‘These Gen Alpha babies really are a different, kinder generation. I love them so much,’ someone revealed.( “这些阿尔法世代的孩子们真的是一个不同的、更善良的一代。我非常爱他们，”有人说)”和前文提到的Soogia的女儿与同学分享午餐，以及同学想要学习做这道菜的事情，可推知Soogia认为新一代的孩子是开放和包容的。故选A项。 Passage 2 （2026·河南南阳·二模） For Sarah, a librarian in a small town in Oregon, the library was never just a place for books. But it wasn’t until the record-breaking heatwave last summer that she realized its true potential as a “community living room.” As temperatures climbed to dangerous levels, Sarah noticed an unusual influx of people. It wasn’t just the regular readers; it was elderly couples whose homes lacked air conditioning, exhausted delivery workers looking for a cool corner, and teenagers who usually spent their afternoons at the now-closed local park. The library, with its powerful cooling system and free Wi-Fi, became a sanctuary. One afternoon, Sarah spotted a man named David sitting near the back, staring blankly at a computer screen. After a brief conversation, she learned that David had recently lost his job and, without a home internet connection, was struggling to apply for new positions. Seeing his frustration, Sarah didn’t just point him to a shelf. She spent her lunch breaks for the next week helping him polish his resume and navigating complex job portals. “Libraries are the only places where you can exist without being expected to spend money,” Sarah observed. Inspired by the crisis, she started a “Career Corner” in the library, offering free printing services and weekly workshops. The initiative was a huge success, attracting local business owners who volunteered to conduct mock interviews. Months later, David walked in, not to escape the heat, but to share the news that he had secured a technician job. He handed Sarah a small potted plant — a token of gratitude. For Sarah, the library had evolved. It was no longer just a quiet space for silence, but a dynamic hub where lives were rebuilt. 24．What did Sarah find out about the library during the heatwave? A．It needed a more powerful cooling system. B．It could serve as a vital social center. C．It attracted fewer readers than expected. D．It was too small for the growing influx. 25．What does the underlined word “sanctuary” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．A quiet research lab. B．A busy marketplace. C．A historic monument. D．A safe shelter. 26．What can we infer about the “Career Corner” ? A．It was initially a government project. B．It focused mainly on young teenagers. C．It replaced the library’s traditional roles. D．It benefited from community support. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Sarah: A Librarian with a Green Thumb. B．David’s Journey: From Heat to a New Job. C．The Library: More Than Just a Quiet Space. D．Public Services: How to Survive a Heatwave. 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．D 27．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了图书馆员Sarah在酷暑期间发现图书馆不仅是阅读场所，更是社区避难所与互助中心，并由此开设职业角帮助他人重获生活希望的故事。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段“But it wasn’t until the record-breaking heatwave last summer that she realized its true potential as a “community living room.”(但是直到去年夏天破纪录的热浪来袭，她才意识到图书馆作为“社区客厅”的真正潜力。)”可知，Sarah发现图书馆可以充当重要的社交中心。故选B项。 25．词义猜测题。根据第二段“It wasn’t just the regular readers; it was elderly couples whose homes lacked air conditioning, exhausted delivery workers looking for a cool corner, and teenagers who usually spent their afternoons at the now-closed local park. The library, with its powerful cooling system and free Wi-Fi, became a sanctuary.(这里不只有常来的读者，还有家里没装空调的老年夫妇、想找个凉快角落歇一歇的疲惫外卖员，以及往常下午都在现已关闭的社区公园里打发时间的青少年。这座有着强劲制冷系统和免费Wi‑Fi的图书馆，成了一处sanctuary。)”可知，这里讲人们在图书馆躲避酷暑，所以可判断sanctuary意为安全的避难所。故选D 项。 26．推理判断题。根据第四段“Inspired by the crisis, she started a “Career Corner” in the library, offering free printing services and weekly workshops. The initiative was a huge success, attracting local business owners who volunteered to conduct mock interviews.(受这场危机的启发，她在图书馆设立了一个“职业角”，提供免费打印服务和每周一次的专题讲座。这一举措大获成功，还吸引了当地企业主自愿前来组织模拟面试。)”可知，职业角得到了社区的支持。故选D项。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文特别是最后一段“Months later, David walked in, not to escape the heat, but to share the news that he had secured a technician job. He handed Sarah a small potted plant — a token of gratitude. For Sarah, the library had evolved. It was no longer just a quiet space for silence, but a dynamic hub where lives were rebuilt.(几个月后，大卫走了进来，不再是为了避暑，而是来分享喜讯：他找到了一份技术员的工作。他递给萨拉一盆小盆栽，以此表达谢意。对萨拉而言，这座图书馆已然蜕变。它不再仅仅是一个安静阅读的空间，而是一个充满活力、帮助人们重筑生活的中心。)”可知，文章讲述了图书馆员Sarah在酷暑期间发现图书馆不仅是阅读场所，更是社区避难所与互助中心，并由此开设职业角帮助他人重获生活希望的故事，所以C项The Library: More Than Just a Quiet Space(图书馆：不只是安静的读书的地方)符合语境。故选C项。 Passage 3 （2026·河南郑州·二模） Esther Kimani, a 29-year-old pioneer in agritech, is changing the lives of smallholder farmers across Africa. As the founder of Farmer Lifeline Technologies (FLT), she has applied artificial intelligence (AI) to fight against crop pests (害虫) and diseases, significantly reducing losses for rural farmers. Kimani's journey began in a small Kenyan village on the Aberdare Mountains. Witnessing firsthand the severe impact of pests and diseases on their crops — and consequently, their income — she understood early how agricultural losses could mean unmet basic needs like school fees and healthcare. Despite these challenges, Kimani became the first girl from her village to attend university, studying computer science. It was there that she recognized the potential of technology to solve rural farmers' struggles, and that's how FLT was born. In Kenya alone,7.5 million smallholder farmers lose up to 50% of their yield (产量) to pests and diseases annually — losses that could feed millions. Traditional solutions like hiring agricultural consultants or using drones (无人机) are prohibitively expensive. To solve this critical issue, she developed an AI-powered camera, which is set up on farms at no upfront cost. It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service (SMS) for $3 per month when pests or diseases are detected. A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers, who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations, but who often lack access to technology. "Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones, while women rely on basic feature phones," she notes. "Through SMS, we ensure women aren't left behind." Kimani's innovation has already impacted thousands of farmers, 78% of whom have reported a yield increase of over 36%. Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years. For Kimani, success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity — affording education, healthcare, and financial stability through improved yields. Kimani is not just building a company; she's reshaping the future of African agriculture. 24．Why did Kimani found FLT? A．To fund rural farmers. B．To transform farming. C．To expand AI industry. D．To research crop types. 25．How does the AI-powered camera help farmers? A．By sending them timely warnings. B．By connecting them to consultants. C．By controlling drones to scan crops. D．By driving pests away automatically. 26．What is an advantage of Kimani's innovation? A．Equal access. B．Tailored service. C．Large storage. D．Easy maintenance. 27．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A．Financial policies affect agriculture. B．African agriculture will take the lead. C．Kimani will pursue further education. D．Kimani's innovation powers a bright future. 【答案】24．B 25．A 26．A 27．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了29岁的农业技术先驱Esther Kimani通过创立Farmer Lifeline Technologies (FLT)，利用人工智能技术帮助非洲小农户对抗作物病虫害，显著减少损失并改善农民生活的故事。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“It was there that she recognized the potential of technology to solve rural farmers' struggles, and that's how FLT was born. (正是在那里，她认识到了技术解决农村农民困境的潜力，FLT就是这样诞生的。)”可知，Kimani创立FLT的初衷是通过技术解决农民的困境，即改造农业。故选B项。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service (SMS) for $3 per month when pests or diseases are detected. (它持续扫描作物，并在检测到病虫害时通过短信服务（SMS）以每月3美元的费用向农民发出警告。)”可知，AI摄像头通过向农民发送及时警告来帮助他们。故选A项。 26．推理判断题。根据第四段“A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers, who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations, but who often lack access to technology. "Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones, while women rely on basic feature phones," she notes. "Through SMS, we ensure women aren't left behind." (Kimani的一个关键重点是支持女性农民，她们占发展中国家农业劳动力的43%，但往往缺乏技术。她指出：“农村社区的男性往往拥有智能手机，而女性则依赖基本的非智能手机。”“通过短信，我们确保女性不会被遗忘。”）”可知，Kimani的创新确保了女性农民也能被纳入技术帮助的范围内，即体现了平等获取技术帮助的优势。故选A项。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段前三句“Kimani's innovation has already impacted thousands of farmers, 78% of whom have reported a yield increase of over 36%. Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years. For Kimani, success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity — affording education, healthcare, and financial stability through improved yields. (Kimani的创新已经影响了数千名农民，其中78%的人报告说产量增加了36%以上。她的团队的目标是在五年内覆盖全国20万家农场。对Kimani来说，2030年的成功意味着看到20万小农户有尊严地生活——通过提高产量负担得起教育、医疗和经济稳定。)”可知，Kimani的创新已经取得了显著成效，并且她的团队有着明确的目标和愿景，即改善更多农民的生活。由此可推知，Kimani的创新将推动农业走向光明前景。故选D项。 Passage 4 （2026·河南·二模） When Mia Woods retired at 61, she knew she needed a plan. “I was worried about losing my identity as a professional. What else can I be?” she thought. The year before, she had been told she had a mild memory problem. “I was trying to show myself that I could still think and be creative,” she says. So she decided to do — rather than be — something new: bake a pie every day for a year and give each pie away. “It made me reach out every day to somebody, so I wouldn’t be alone. And it gave me a routine,” she says. She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager, Mia had moved in with her aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect first pie,” she says. She went on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a homeless man. As word spread, she got known as “the pie lady”. For more than 30 years, Mia had worked as a city planner. “I’m a planner by nature, training and profession. What I really liked about it was that planning takes time, chaos, many different components, puts them all together and makes them into something manageable.” She sees the same in baking pies: “You take a bunch of ingredients and create something out of them.” Twelve years on, Mia has continued to invent new projects, including writing a letter a day, and painting pictures of her local sky. She is writing a book about the pie experience. But she has learned more than baking. “What really came out of it was the understanding that I was someone who could do new things,” she reflects. “And my professional identity wasn’t critical to who I am.” “Even now, after I have an encounter with somebody, I think: ‘There’s a person I wish I could give a pie to.’” says Mia. 24．What was Mia’s worry when she retired? A．Her serious mental problem. B．Her being cut off from others. C．Having no identity beyond career. D．Having to change her daily routine. 25．Why did Mia give her first pie to her aunt? A．She had given Mia a home. B．She had cared for Mia’s mum. C．She was the oldest in the family. D．She had built Mia’s stable character. 26．What do city planning and baking pies have in common according to Mia? A．Both require professional training. B．Both make sense of mixed elements. C．Both create something out of nothing. D．Both connect people with one another. 27．What is Mia’s reflection on her experience? A．Everyone in the world deserves a pie. B．New challenges redefine who we are. C．Opening up to changes takes courage. D．Simple acts can bring people together. 【答案】24．C 25．A 26．B 27．B 【导语】文章主要讲述了退休城市规划师米娅·伍兹为应对退休后可能失去职业身份认同的焦虑，通过每天烤一个派并送给他人这一日常行动，重新认识自我价值、建立生活秩序并延续创造力的故事。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段““I was worried about losing my identity as a professional. What else can I be?” she thought. (“我担心自己作为专业人士的身份会丧失。那我还能做些什么呢？”她这样想。)”可知，她退休时的担忧是失去职业身份，害怕除了职业身份之外自己不知还能成为什么样的人。选项C“Having no identity beyond career (除了职业之外没有其他身份认同)”与此直接对应。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager, Mia had moved in with her aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect first pie,” she says. She went on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a homeless man. As word spread, she got known as “the pie lady”. (她做了第一个馅饼，并送给了她 88 岁的姑妈卡罗尔。在十几岁的时候，米娅曾因母亲生病而搬到了姑妈家。那时的姑妈家给了她一种稳定的环境……把第一个馅饼送给姑妈是最合适的选择。她继续把馅饼送给以前的同事、杂货店店员，甚至一个无家可归的人。随着消息的传播，她被称为“馅饼女士”。)”可知，米娅年少时因母亲生病而搬去与姨妈一家同住，姨妈家为她提供了稳定的家庭环境。她把第一个派送给姨妈，是因为姨妈曾给予她一个家、一份依靠，这符合选项A“She had given Mia a home (她曾给米娅一个家)”的表述。 26．推理判断题。根据第四段““I’m a planner by nature, training and profession. What I really liked about it was that planning takes time, chaos, many different components, puts them all together and makes them into something manageable.” She sees the same in baking pies: “You take a bunch of ingredients and create something out of them.”( “我天生就是个规划师，这是我的训练和职业。我真正喜欢的是规划工作，规划需要时间，它要把混乱和众多不同的要素整合起来，使之变得井然有序。”她在烘焙馅饼时也发现了同样的道理：“你将各种食材混合在一起，就能创造出新的成果。”)”可知，通过米娅的类比，两者的共同之处在于都是将纷繁杂乱的不同元素组合成有序、有意义的整体，即选项B“Both make sense of mixed elements (两者都让混合的元素变得有条理) ”。 27．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““What really came out of it was the understanding that I was someone who could do new things,” she reflects. “And my professional identity wasn’t critical to who I am.”(最重要的是，这件事让我明白自己能够尝试新事物，”她回忆道，“而且我的职业身份并不决定我的本质。”)”可知，她通过尝试新事物认识到自己有能力应对改变，并重新定义了自我价值，不局限于职业身份。这体现了选项B“New challenges redefine who we are (新挑战重新定义了我们是谁)”的内涵。 Passage 5 （2026·河南南阳·二模） Jacques Richter, a teacher at Northwood School, was chatting with a parent when the mom mentioned three old bikes sitting disused and that her kids had outgrown them. It all started with that throwaway line. Richter felt a sudden idea. “What if we fix them up and pass them on?” It was 2024, Northwood’s 75th anniversary, and Richter wanted to do something meaningful. When he brought the idea to his cycling team, it landed in fertile ground. All team members loved the proposal and ran with it. “Let’s go for 75,” one student suggested. “One for each year.” And so the “75 Bikes” project was born. Word spread. Old bikes started showing up, loose frames, missing wheels and flat tires. The students didn’t see junk. They saw challenges. Every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, the workshop was full of life. Tools made noise. They made mistakes and bikes had to be taken apart more than once. They were not professional mechanics. But efforts paid off. Bit by bit, the pile of broken bikes thinned out, and the row of shiny, rideable bikes grew. Then they knew Keletso, a young man working at a local supermarket. His only way there was an old bike without brakes (刹车). The students picked out their best repair, a solid blue bike with smooth gears and strong brakes. When they handed it over, Keletso’s face broke into a wide smile. At that moment, the students understood something no classroom could teach. A bike isn’t just a bike. For someone like Keletso, it’s freedom. By year’s end, they had donated over 25 bikes, still short of 75, but they weren’t stopping. “We set out to give away bicycles,” Richter said. “What we got back was so much more.” 24．What inspired the initial idea of “75 Bikes” project? A．A casual chat. B．A team discussion. C．A careful plan. D．A student’s dream. 25．What does the underlined phrase “landed in fertile ground” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Got quickly forgotten. B．Received strong support. C．Caused a heated debate. D．Needed repeated checking. 26．What can be inferred from the students’ bike repair process? A．Efforts bridge the skill gap. B．Students are born mechanics. C．Repairing is beyond students. D．Professional guidance matters. 27．What does the story show? A．Opportunity knocks but once. B．Well begun is half done. C．Giving is better than receiving. D．It’s never too late to learn. 【答案】24．A 25．B 26．A 27．C 【导语】本文主要讲的是北伍德学校教师Jacques Richter受家长提及的三辆闲置旧自行车启发，在学校75周年校庆之际，与自行车队学生共同发起“75辆自行车”项目。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段“Jacques Richter, a teacher at Northwood School, was chatting with a parent when the mom mentioned three old bikes sitting disused and that her kids had outgrown them. It all started with that throwaway line. Richter felt a sudden idea. “What if we fix them up and pass them on?”(北伍德学校的教师Jacques Richter正与一位家长交谈时，那位母亲提到家里有三辆闲置的旧自行车——孩子们已经长大，用不上了。正是这句无心之言，点燃了Richter的灵感。“我们何不把它们修好，转赠给需要的人呢？”)”可知，“75 辆自行车”项目的最初构想是受到一次随意的交谈启发的。 25．词句猜测题。根据第二段“All team members loved the proposal and ran with it. “Let’s go for 75,” one student suggested. “One for each year.” And so the “75 Bikes” project was born.(所有队员都喜爱这个提议，并立即行动起来。“咱们就定75辆吧，”一名学生提议道，“每年一辆。”于是，“75辆自行车”项目诞生了。)”可知，当他提出这个想法的时候得到了很多人的支持，landed in fertile ground的意思是“得到强烈的支持”，和Received strong support意思相近。 26．推理判断题。根据第三段“They were not professional mechanics. But efforts paid off. Bit by bit, the pile of broken bikes thinned out, and the row of shiny, rideable bikes grew.(他们并非专业机械师，但他们的努力有了回报。渐渐地，那堆破旧自行车的数量减少了，而一排闪亮、可骑行的自行车则越来越多。)”可知，从学生们进行自行车修理的过程当中，可以推断出努力缩小了技能差距。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段“By year’s end, they had donated over 25 bikes, still short of 75, but they weren’t stopping. “We set out to give away bicycles,” Richter said. “What we got back was so much more.”(到年底时，他们已经捐赠了25多辆自行车，离75辆的目标还有差距，但他们并未就此止步。“我们原本只是打算赠送自行车，”Richter说，“但我们得到的回报却远不止于此。”)”可知，他们在捐赠自行车的过程中收获的更多，因此这个故事说明了给予比接受更好。 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1 （2026·河南信阳·二模） Celine Dion, one of the most iconic voices in music history, has captured audiences worldwide with her powerful vocal and emotional performances. Her journey from a small-town girl in Canada to a global superstar reflects her extraordinary talent, resilience, and optimism. Born in Quebec in March 1968 as the youngest of the 14 children in a musical family, Celine displayed her gift young. By 12, she had already co-written her first song with her mother. Her big break came when her talent was discovered by manager René Angélil. Deeply impressed by her voice, he mortgaged (抵押) his house to finance her debut album, marking the beginning of a lifelong professional partnership and eventual marriage. Celine’s career skyrocketed in the 1980s and 1990s. She rose to international fame with hits like The Power of Love and Because You Loved Me. However, it was her performance of My Heart Will Go On that cemented her status as a global icon, which earned her an Academy Award and multiple Grammy Awards and placed her name in households globally. Her performances at major events, such as the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, further highlighted her ability to capture massive audiences. It’s not that Celine’s life has not been without hardship. In 2016, she suffered the loss of René Angélil, her beloved. This period marked a profound personal transformation. She openly shared her grief and embraced fashion as a form of self-expression, using it to channel feelings of “strength, beauty, and femininity”. In recent years, Celine herself has faced a battle with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder causing severe muscle spasms. Despite this, she remains determined to return to the stage, declaring, “If I can’t run, I’ll walk; if I can’t walk, I’ll crawl…I won’t stop.” Celine Dion’s influence extends far beyond music. Her philanthropic efforts, including support for children’s charities and disaster relief initiatives, underscore her commitment to giving back to society. Her recent documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, offers a close glimpse into her life and struggles, inspiring millions with her resilience and optimism. 24．How did René Angélil fund Celine Dion’s first album? A．He secured a loan against his house. B．He sold his house and other possessions. C．He borrowed money from his friends. D．He organized a big concert to raise fund. 25．Which event further established Celine Dion’s legendary status? A．Her hit song The Power of Love. B．My Heart Will Go On for Titanic. C．Her documentary I Am: Celine Dion. D．Her performance at the Atlanta Olympics. 26．What can be inferred about Celine Dion’s attitude toward her challenges? A．She plans to greatly transform her music. B．She publicly seeks comfort from her fans. C．She remains committed to her performing. D．She prioritizes her fashion career over music. 27．What does the underlined word “philanthropic” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Ambitious. B．Tireless. C．Competent. D．Generous. 【答案】24．A 25．B 26．C 27．D 【导语】本文为记叙文。文章以时间顺序为线索，记叙了席琳·迪翁从出生、成名到面对人生挑战的主要生命历程，并穿插了对其影响力与精神品质的评价，旨在叙述生平、展现品格并传递励志精神。 24．细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“Deeply impressed by her voice, he mortgaged (抵押) his house to finance her debut album, marking the beginning of a lifelong professional partnership and eventual marriage.(她那动人的嗓音给他留下了深刻的印象，于是他抵押了自己的房子来为她的首张专辑提供资金，这标志着一段终身的职业合作关系的开始，最终也促成了他们的婚姻)”可知，René Angélill是通过抵押房产来资助席琳·迪翁的首张专辑的。故选A。 25．细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“However, it was her performance of My Heart Will Go On that cemented her status as a global icon, which earned her an Academy Award and multiple Grammy Awards and placed her name in households globally.(然而，正是她在《我心永恒》中的出色表演，使她成为了全球的标志性人物。这一表演为她赢得了奥斯卡奖和多个格莱美奖，并使她的名字传遍了全球各地的家庭)”可知，《我心永恒》的表演巩固了她作为全球偶像的地位，因此，该事件是确立其传奇地位的关键。故选B。 26．推理判断题。文章第四段末尾“Despite this, she remains determined to return to the stage, declaring, “If I can’t run, I’ll walk; if I can’t walk, I’ll crawl…I won’t stop.”(尽管如此，她仍坚定地想要重返舞台，并说道：“如果我跑不了，我就走；如果我走不了，我就爬……我绝不会停止。”)”引用她的话，并提到她坚定地想要重返舞台，这明确表明尽管面临健康挑战，她依然决心重返舞台，致力于表演事业。故选C。 27．词句猜测题。文章最后一段中“Her philanthropic efforts, including support for children’s charities and disaster relief initiatives, underscore her commitment to giving back to society.(她的philanthropic行动，包括对儿童慈善机构的支持以及救灾活动的参与，彰显了她回馈社会的决心)”中“philanthropic”一词用于描述主人公的行为或品质，从下文可知，该词与慈善、奉献相关，强调无私给予和帮助他人的精神，因此意为“慷慨的”(generous)。故选D。 Passage 2 （2026·河南信阳·二模） Steve Bagmanyan found his calling in a workshop filled with broken instruments. But every year, the shop brings both joy and heartbreak. Due to budget cuts, the number of technicians has dropped from 60 to just 11, leaving them to repair instruments for more than half a million students in Los Angeles public schools. “The work we do is important and needs to be preserved, but it’s becoming a dying craft,” said Bagmanyan,60, who runs the shop and handles piano repairs. “Children are our future, yet music programs are being cut across the country.” However, there is hope for the shop. The Last Repair Shop, a short documentary featuring Bagmanyan and three other technicians, recently won an Oscar for best documentary short film. The film combines their personal stories with reflections from students who have found comfort and joy in music. Few people even knew the shop existed before the documentary’s release. This workshop, in operation since 1959, is believed to be the last of its kind in the country. Bagmanyan and his team provide free instruments and repairs across the school district, often serving children from low-income families. For many of these children, public schools are their only source of musical instruments, which wealthier families can more easily afford. Since the release of the film, public support has soared. Donations have been made to fund more repairs and strengthen school music programs in Los Angeles. “People are inspired by what we do and want to support a dying art form,” said Ben Proudfoot, who co-directed the documentary. Bagmanyan knows that a poorly maintained instrument can discourage a child from learning. “If an instrument doesn’t work properly, a child might give up on music,” he said. “But when you know the instrument is going to a student who loves it, it’s impossible not to smile.” After 21 years of service, Bagmanyan says his cup is full, knowing that children may carry a love of music with them for a lifetime. “I was planning to retire,” he admitted. “But now I’ll rebuild the shop to what it once was and keep going a little longer.” 24．What is the challenge faced by Bagmanyan? A．Old instruments. B．Declining number of students. C．Low profitability. D．Shortage of skilled technicians. 25．What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The career achievements of Bagmanyan. B．The popularity of the documentary. C．The unique history of the school district. D．The importance of the repair shop. 26．How does the documentary impact the shop? A．It enhances the shop’s public image. B．It attracts new business opportunities. C．It helps sustain the shop’s operation. D．It provides education to the community. 27．What do the underlined words “his cup is full” in the last paragraph mean? A．He is ready to retire. B．He feels deeply satisfied. C．He is tired of the spotlight. D．He has become very wealthy. 【答案】24．D 25．D 26．C 27．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Steve Bagmanyan和他的乐器维修店的故事。 24．推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Due to budget cuts, the number of technicians has dropped from 60 to just 11, leaving them to repair instruments for more than half a million students in Los Angeles public schools. (由于预算削减，技术人员的人数从60人减少到了仅11人，而他们却要负责维修洛杉矶公立学校超过50万名学生的乐器)”可知，由于预算削减，技术人员的人数从60人减少到只有11人，所以Bagmanyan面临的挑战是技术人员短缺。故选D。 25．主旨大意题。由文章第四段“Few people even knew the shop existed before the documentary’s release. This workshop, in operation since 1959, is believed to be the last of its kind in the country. Bagmanyan and his team provide free instruments and repairs across the school district, often serving children from low-income families. For many of these children, public schools are their only source of musical instruments, which wealthier families can more easily afford. (在这部纪录片上映之前，几乎没人知道这家工坊的存在。这家自1959年就开始运营的工坊，被认为是全国同类工坊中仅存的一家。巴格马尼扬和他的团队为整个学区的学校提供免费乐器和维修服务，服务对象往往是来自低收入家庭的孩子。对于这些孩子中的许多人来说，公立学校是他们获得乐器的唯一途径，而富裕家庭则更容易负担得起乐器)”可知，本段主要讲述了维修工作室的重要性。故选D。 26．细节理解题。由文章第五段中“Since the release of the film, public support has soared. Donations have been made to fund more repairs and strengthen school music programs in Los Angeles. (自这部影片上映以来，公众支持度急剧上升。人们纷纷捐款，用于资助更多的维修工作和加强洛杉矶学校的音乐课程)”可知，这部纪录片帮助维持了工作室的运营。故选C。 27．词句猜测题。由文章最后一段中“After 21 years of service, Bagmanyan says his cup is full, knowing that children may carry a love of music with them for a lifetime. (在服务了21年之后，Bagmanyan表示his cup is full，因为他知道孩子们可能会将这份对音乐的热爱延续一生)”可知，他知道孩子们可能会将这份对音乐的热爱延续一生，由此可知，Bagmanyan对此感到深深的满足，所以his cup is full意思是“已经心满意足”，与He feels deeply satisfied“他感到非常满意”意思相符。故选B。 Passage 3 （2026·河南开封·二模） Growing up in the UK, I was utterly fascinated by the tiny world of insects. At five, my dog wrecked an ant nest I’d spent weeks building, so I set out to rebuild it better. I carved tiny dwellings for ants from twigs and leaf fragments, then moved on to fashioning teacups from silver foil for imaginary sprites. When my mother saw my work, she whispered, “The smaller your creations, the larger your impact will be.” As I matured, my designs grew fiendishly complex. Sculpting is no casual hobby; I often work 16 - hour stretches without breaks, and a single piece can take three months to finish. I must hold my breath during the entire sculpting process to avoid disturbing the fragile forms. Once, a fly landed on a tiny Cinderella carriage I was carving. Its wingbeat blew the delicate work away, and it was lost forever. Another time, I accidentally exhaled (呼气) on a minuscule Alice from Alice in Wonderland, and she vanished. Yet these failures taught me to refine my technique, leading to even more precise work on the second try. My micro - sculptures have taken me to extraordinary places. In 2012, I met the Queen, presenting her with a crown perched on the head of a pin. In 2013, I earned my first Guinness World Record for the smallest sculpture: a 24 - carat gold motorbike that fit inside a human hair. In 2017, I broke my own record with a human fetus sculpture measuring just 0.078 mm by 0.053 mm. Although I was diagnosed with autism as an adult, I was once labeled a “failure” by my schoolteachers. Now, I see my autism as a superpower — it has given me the laser focus to excel in my craft. I run workshops for neurodiverse kids, sharing my story and helping them build their own tiny worlds. The micro - kingdom has always been my happy place. I’ve tried larger sculptures, but small is where I shine. We must learn to value the little things in life, for they can hold immense power. 24．What can we infer from the comment of the author’s mother? A．Small art was less valuable than large-scale works. B．The author’s work was too delicate to be practical. C．The author was encouraged to pursue tiny world passion. D．The author’s focus on tiny things would limit his success. 25．What does the underlined word “fiendishly” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Extremely. B．Frighteningly. C．Surprisingly. D．Conveniently. 26．What specific achievement did the author accomplish in 2017? A．Creating a tiny gold motorbike in a hair. B．Being granted an audience with the Queen. C．Holding workshops for neurodiverse children. D．Breaking his own Guinness record with a fetus sculpture. 27．Why does the author view his autism as a “superpower”? A．To win public sympathy through it. B．To give intense focus for micro-sculpture. C．To allow easier communication with others. D．To make him popular among schoolteachers. 【答案】24．C 25．A 26．D 27．B 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了英国作者自幼痴迷微缩世界，深耕微雕技艺屡创吉尼斯纪录，视自闭症为专注的超能力，坚信微小事物蕴藏着巨大力量。 24．推理判断题。根据第一段中“I carved tiny dwellings for ants from twigs and leaf fragments, then moved on to fashioning teacups from silver foil for imaginary sprites. When my mother saw my work, she whispered, “The smaller your creations, the larger your impact will be.”(我用小树枝和树叶碎片为蚂蚁雕刻出小小的住所，然后又用银箔为想象中的精灵制作茶杯。当我母亲看到我的作品时，她轻声说道：“你的创作越小，产生的影响就越大。”)”可知，母亲的话是正向的肯定与鼓励，意为“你的创作越微小，你的影响力就会越大”，本质是鼓励作者坚持对微小世界的热爱。 25．词句猜测题。根据划线单词句中“As I matured, my designs grew…complex.( 随着年龄的增长，我的设计变得……复杂。)”以及后文“Sculpting is no casual hobby; I often work 16 - hour stretches without breaks, and a single piece can take three months to finish. I must hold my breath during the entire sculpting process to avoid disturbing the fragile forms.( 雕刻并非一种随意的爱好；我经常连续工作 16 个小时不休息，而且一件作品可能需要三个月才能完成。在整个雕刻过程中，我必须屏住呼吸以免破坏这些脆弱的形态。)”可知，后文补充说明，微雕不是随意的爱好，作者常连续16小时无休创作，单件作品耗时3个月，全程必须屏住呼吸避免破坏作品，可见设计的复杂程度极高。fiendishly 在此处表程度，意为极其、非常，与A选项extremely“极其地”同义。 26．细节理解题。根据第四段中“In 2017, I broke my own record with a human fetus sculpture measuring just 0.078 mm by 0.053 mm.( 2017年，我凭借一个尺寸仅为 0.078 毫米乘 0.053 毫米的人体胎儿雕塑打破了自己之前创下的纪录。)”可知，作者在2017年用胎儿雕塑打破自己的吉尼斯世界纪录。 27．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Now, I see my autism as a superpower — it has given me the laser focus to excel in my craft. I run workshops for neurodiverse kids, sharing my story and helping them build their own tiny worlds.( 如今，我将自闭症视为一种超能力——它赋予了我高度专注的能力，使我能够在自己的领域中脱颖而出。我为神经多样性的孩子举办工作坊，分享我的故事，并帮助他们构建自己的小小世界。)”可推知，作者将自闭症视为超能力，核心原因是它带来了激光般的极致专注力，让自己能在微雕技艺上做到极致。 Passage 4 （2026·河南信阳·二模） In an age shaped by social media and self-promotion, people admire a visible version of success, the kind that takes center stage and seeks constant applause. For an extended period, I was a willing participant in this illusion (错觉), measuring my own worth by the volume of recognition I received from others, only to feel disappointed when my quiet contributions went unnoticed. My perspective on value and success shifted greatly during my volunteer time at a small neighborhood library. It was a quiet place with calm yet purposeful daily activities, where the staff worked diligently without expectation of praise or recognition. My responsibilities there were modest and simple: reshelving books, helping a student find a suitable novel, or keeping the reading room quiet and peaceful for everyone. These ordinary and unsung routines, which were easily overlooked by most people, first struck me as trifling, totally lacking the applause and attention I had starved for. Over time, however, I began to see deeper value in these simple tasks. An elderly man came to the library every week, calling it his only shelter of peace in a noisy world. A small group of young locals depended on its quiet and comfortable atmosphere to take a break from their busy lives. I gradually came to realize that the library’s true significance lay not in great public recognition or praise, but in the steady, silent dedication (奉献) of its staff that made it a warm haven (港湾) for the whole community. Eventually, I learned that true competence operates quietly. It lies in the work done without an audience: the small, consistent efforts that make life easier for others. Success does not need a spotlight to be real. The most meaningful contributions are often made without expecting applause, yet they are profoundly valuable. 24．What did the author previously believe? A．Silent work deserved respect. B．Success hid in the dark. C．Visible efforts earned reputation. D．Recognition measured worth. 25．What does the underlined word “trifling” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Effortless. B．Challenging. C．Insignificant. D．Complicated. 26．How does the author illustrate the importance of the library in paragraph 3? A．By giving examples. B．By making contrast. C．By listing statistics. D．By quoting readers. 27．What is the main purpose of the text? A．To compare different types of success. B．To show the value of quiet devotion. C．To describe the experience at a library. D．To advocate seeking public recognition. 【答案】24．D 25．C 26．A 27．B 【导语】文章主要介绍了作者从前认同靠外界认可衡量自我价值、追捧博人眼球的显性成功，后在社区图书馆做志愿者的经历中深受触动，领悟到不求掌声的默默奉献才更有深层价值与真正意义。 24．细节理解题。根据原文第一段“For an extended period, I was a willing participant in this illusion(错觉), measuring my own worth by the volume of recognition I received from others (长期以来，我心甘情愿深陷这种错觉之中，依靠他人的认可度来衡量自我价值)” 可知，作者从前认为外界的认可可以衡量个人价值。 25．词句猜测题。根据原文第二段“These ordinary and unsung routines, which were easily overlooked by most people, first struck me as trifling, totally lacking the applause and attention I had starved for. (这些不被人知晓的日常琐事很容易被大多数人忽视，起初我认为这些事情trifling，完全没有我渴望的掌声与关注。)” 可知，这些不被人知晓的日常琐事很容易被大多数人忽视，所以trifling表示这些事情是无意义的，不会被人注意的，故表示“微不足道、无意义的”。 26．推理判断题。根据原文第三段“An elderly man came to the library every week, calling it his only shelter of peace in a noisy world. A small group of young locals depended on its quiet and comfortable atmosphere to take a break from their busy lives. (一位老人每周都会来到图书馆，并称这里是喧嚣世界里唯一的安宁港湾。当地一群年轻人依靠图书馆安静舒适的环境，从忙碌的生活中抽身休憩。)” 可知，作者通过列举老人和当地年轻人的事例，说明图书馆的重要意义。 27．推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“Eventually, I learned that true competence operates quietly. It lies in the work done without an audience: the small, consistent efforts that make life easier for others. (最终我明白，真正的能力往往无声彰显。它藏在无人注视的付出里，藏在那些默默坚持、为他人带去便利的微小努力中。)” 可知，文章旨在阐述默默奉献的价值与意义。 Passage 5 （2026·河南濮阳·二模） Growing up in a small village in southern Ghana, Osei Boateng witnessed his family and neighbors struggle to access basic health care. For many villagers, the nearest hospital was a several-hour journey on rough roads. His grandmother’s death from a preventable illness deeply saddened him and fueled his desire to make a difference. Ghana faces significant health challenges: with a life expectancy of about 64, the country sees high death rates from treatable diseases like malaria and stroke. Determined to address this issue, Boateng studied diligently and earned a scholarship to Cornell University in the US, where he completed a master’s degree in Healthcare Administration. During his studies, he realized that his homeland lacked two critical things: health education and preventive care. Villagers were too busy making a living to travel to hospitals for regular check-ups. Early screening was rare, and many were unaware of the deadly risks posed by conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病). In 2021, Boateng founded the OKB Hope Foundation and transformed a van (厢式货车) into a mobile medical clinic. Several times a week, a team of professional medical workers travels to remote villages, offering free health check-ups, basic medical tests, and essential medicines. To date, the van has served over 4,000 people across more than 45 rural communities. Boateng’s team has also trained 20 local volunteers to collect health data, ensuring continuous monitoring of villagers’ well-being. Beyond physical health, he has launched a mental health program to reduce the symptom around depression and provide much-needed emotional support. For Boateng, bringing life-saving care to those in need has become the most meaningful part of his life. His remarkable efforts have gained widespread recognition, including the 2025 Global Citizen Waislitz Grand Prize. So far, the OKB Hope Foundation has served over 15,000 people in more than 100 remote communities in Ghana. Boateng’s work has not only saved lives but also shifted people’s healthcare mindset — from seeking treatment only when ill to hugging proactive prevention. He stands as an inspiring example of turning personal grief (悲痛) into lasting good for one’s nation. 24．Why did Boateng choose to study healthcare administration? A．To secure a well- paid career in the United States. B．To become a professional expert in medical fields. C．To help solve health problems in his homeland. D．To seek an effective cure for some rare diseases. 25．What prevented villagers from receiving early health screenings? A．Being too occupied with supporting their family. B．Suffering shortages of local medical equipment. C．Knowing nothing about screening appointments. D．Lacking knowledge of dangerous health conditions. 26．What can we learn about Boateng’s mobile medical clinic? A．It provides free medical services for rural residents. B．It was first donated by the OKB Hope Foundation. C．It mainly focuses on treating those serious diseases. D．It has expanded its services to other African countries. 27．What is Boateng’s greatest influence on his nation? A．His innovative healthcare ideas. B．His inspiring and exemplary role. C．His unbelievable personal efforts. D．His heartfelt devotion to his work. 【答案】24．C 25．A 26．A 27．B 【导语】主要讲述来自加纳小村庄的奥塞·博阿滕，因目睹家乡医疗困境，为解决家乡健康问题，赴美学习医疗管理，回国后创立OKB希望基金会，将厢式货车改造成移动医疗诊所，为偏远村庄提供免费医疗服务，改变了人们的医疗观念，其个人也成为激励他人的榜样。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段“Ghana faces significant health challenges: with a life expectancy of about 64, the country sees high death rates from treatable diseases like malaria and stroke. Determined to address this issue, Boateng studied diligently and earned a scholarship to Cornell University in the US, where he completed a master’s degree in Healthcare Administration.(加纳面临严峻的健康挑战：该国人均预期寿命约为64岁，疟疾、中风等可治愈疾病致死率居高不下。 为解决这一问题，博阿滕勤奋求学，成功获得美国康奈尔大学奖学金，并在该校取得了医疗管理硕士学位)”可知，博阿滕选择学习医疗管理是为了帮助解决他家乡的健康问题。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“Villagers were too busy making a living to travel to hospitals for regular check-ups. Early screening was rare, and many were unaware of the deadly risks posed by conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病).(村民们忙于谋生，没有时间去医院进行定期检查。早期筛查很少见，许多人没有意识到高血压和糖尿病等疾病带来的致命风险)”可知，村民们因忙于养家糊口，无法去医院进行早期健康筛查。 26．细节理解题。根据第四段“Several times a week, a team of professional medical workers travels to remote villages, offering free health check-ups, basic medical tests, and essential medicines.(每周有几次，一组专业医疗人员前往偏远村庄，提供免费的健康检查、基本医疗测试和基本药物。）可知，博阿滕的移动医疗诊所为农村居民提供免费医疗服务。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Boateng’s work has not only saved lives but also shifted people’s healthcare mindset — from seeking treatment only when ill to hugging proactive prevention. He stands as an inspiring example of turning personal grief (悲痛) into lasting good for one’s nation.(博阿滕的工作不仅挽救了生命，还改变了人们的医疗观念—— 从生病才就医转变为积极预防。他成为了一个鼓舞人心的榜样，将个人悲痛转化为对国家的长久贡献)”可知，博阿滕对他的国家最大的影响是他鼓舞人心的榜样作用。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
