River Thames is one of the most important rivers in Britain. It rises in the Cotswold Hills, passes through London and other cities, and flows into the North Sea. It is 346 km long.
London is famous for its waterways. Many ships and boats brought fish, wood and food to the city by the river. In the 17 hundreds, many ships started to carry all kinds of things for sale in the city, like tea from the East River Thames was so busy at that time that many ships on the river could hardly move on. Sometimes the ships had to wait for days along the banks to get things on land.

Happy Rain on a Spring Night— Du Fu
Good rain knows its time right;
It will fall when comes spring.
With wind it steals in night;
Mute, it moistens each thing.
Over wild lanes dark cloud spreads;
In boat a lantern looms.
Dawn sees saturated reds;
The town’s heavy with blooms.
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
Note: steal 偷偷移动;
moisten 使……润湿;
lane 小路;
spread 扩散,传播;
loom 逼近;
bloom (常指供观赏的)花
This famous poem, with four couplets (诗句的“联”), was written by Du Fu (712—770, Tang Dynasty) when he was living and farming in Chengdu. His farming experience taught him to be thankful to nature.
The very first word, “good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good because it “knows” the time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to come in time for the farmers’ busy season.
When the rain comes, it appears during the night without making any noise. Unlike the summer storms, the spring rain finishes its task without being known.
In the third couplet, the poet describes a peaceful scene (景象) to us. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy. It’s a sign that there will be enough rain during the night. The light from the riverboat makes the dark scene a bit livelier.
Lastly, the poet starts to imagine. Tomorrow morning, he thinks, the city of Chengdu will become beautiful when all of the flowers bloom (盛开) after the rain.
46. Which of the following rhymes (韵律) are right for this poem?
A. aa-bb-cc-dd B. ab-ab-cd-cd C. ab-cd-ab-cd D. ab-ba-cd-dc
47. Which of the following uses “personification”?
A. It will fall when comes spring. B. With wind it steals in night. C. In boat a lantern looms. D. The town’s heavy with blooms.
48. What’s the Chinese title of the poem Happy Rain on a Spring Night?
A. 《春江花月夜》 B. 《夜雨寄北》 C. 《春夜喜雨》 D. 《曲江对雨》
【答案】46. B 47. B 48. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了杜甫的著名诗作《春夜喜雨》的英文译本。文章不仅展示了许渊冲先生的翻译,还分段赏析了诗歌的意境、修辞手法以及诗人表达的情感。
【46题详解】
根据原文,第一行right和第三行night押韵, 第二行spring和第四行thing押韵, 第五行spreads和第七行reds押韵, 第六行looms和第八行blooms押韵。故韵律为ab-ab-cd-cd。
【47题详解】
根据第二段“Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to come in time for the farmers' busy season.”我们需要找到使用了“拟人”手法的诗句。It will fall when comes spring.陈述事实;With wind it steals in night. 随风潜入夜——steal“偷/悄悄移动”是人的动作,这里用来形容雨,赋予了雨人的行为特征,属于拟人;In boat a lantern looms.写景 ;The town’s heavy with blooms.写景。
【48题详解】
根据第一段提到的作者Du Fu杜甫以及诗歌内容“Good rain knows its time right”和标题意译“Happy Rain on a Spring Night”,可以判断这首诗是杜甫的《春夜喜雨》。
B
Many Chinese people will wonder what presents to get for their moms on Mother’s Day, but not many people know Mother’s Day is actually a festival from overseas.
Mother’s Day originated (起源) in America during the early 20th century. In the 1980s, it was gradually accepted by Chinese.
Why did a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, traditional Chinese culture has always encouraged filial (孝顺的) devotion to parents. There are many stories which show filial respect in ancient China. For example, the story of “Taste Liquid (液体的) Medicine for Mother” tells us the filial virtue (美德) of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty. His mother had been sick for three years. He often stayed up at her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the liquid medicine first before she drank it. Also, mother’s love is a repeated subject in Chinese ancient poems, like “Song of the Parting Son” by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now this poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China are brought up with the education of filial devotion.
On special days, people often use roses or forget-me-nots to express love. Carnations are considered as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world, but few people know that China has its own flower for mothers—the tiger lily.
Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is perhaps just a simple expression of love from their children.
49. What is the poem of “Song of the Parting Son” mainly about?
A. The filial virtue of Emperor Wen. B. Caring for the old. C. Traditional Chinese medicine. D. A mother’s love for her son.
50. Mother’s Day is popular in China mainly because of ________.
A. widely spread in many countries
B. our ancient stories of respecting parents
C. our traditional cultural values
D. its simple way of expressing love
51. What is regarded as the Chinese own flower for a mother?
A. Roses. B. Forget-me-nots. C. Carnations. D. The tiger lily.
【答案】49. D 50. C 51. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了母亲节的起源,还解释了它在中国被广泛接受的原因。
【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Also, mother’s love is a repeated subject in Chinese ancient poems, like ‘Song of the Parting Son’ by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.”可知,《游子吟》主要讲述的是母亲对儿子的爱。故选D。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Why did a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, traditional Chinese culture has always encouraged filial (孝顺的) devotion to parents.”可推断。母亲节是一个外国节日。但在中国很受欢迎。因为它正好和我们的传统文化中的“孝道”一致。故选C。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据“but few people know that China has its own flower for mothers—the tiger lily.”可知,中国代表母亲的花是虎皮百合。故选D。
C
“Thank you for your email. I’ll leave the school to follow my dream of knitting (编织) sweaters for penguins in Antarctica (南极洲) and don’t work for the school. I will be back to school after my penguin friends are happy.” Weeks ago, a teacher in the UK sent this email to her Chinese student, and it soon became popular online.
You may find this email surprising, but knitting sweaters for penguins is a real act of kindness. The Penguin Foundation (基金会) and Phillip Island Nature Parks in Australia came up with the idea.
The activity began because of a serious oil spill (石油泄漏) near Phillip Island in the 1990s. During that time, the number and health of baby penguins had a serious drop. When little penguins were covered in oil, their lives were put in danger.
To solve this problem, the foundation asked people from all over the world to knit sweaters for penguins. These sweaters could keep them warm during the cleaning and stop them from eating the oil.
Luckily, the idea worked. In 2001, there was another oil spill near Phillip Island. This time, the sweaters helped save 96% of the penguins in the area.
However, some bird protection groups queried, “Might these sweaters put more weight on penguins?” To answer this, the foundation said that the sweaters are only used for a short time. If the penguins are better, they no longer wear them.
52. Why did the teacher leave the school?
A. To study penguins. B. To help penguins.
C. To have a good rest. D. To sell sweaters in Antarctica.
53. What can sweaters do for the penguins?
A. Help baby penguins grow faster. B. Protect them from falling into the water.
C. Stop them from eating the spilled oil. D. Clean baby penguins covered in oil.
54. What does the underlined word “queried” mean?

Happy Rain on a Spring Night— Du Fu
Good rain knows its time right;
It will fall when comes spring.
With wind it steals in night;
Mute, it moistens each thing.
Over wild lanes dark cloud spreads;
In boat a lantern looms.
Dawn sees saturated reds;
The town’s heavy with blooms.
(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
Note: steal 偷偷移动;
moisten 使……润湿;
lane 小路;
spread 扩散,传播;
loom 逼近;
bloom (常指供观赏的)花
This famous poem, with four couplets (诗句的“联”), was written by Du Fu (712—770, Tang Dynasty) when he was living and farming in Chengdu. His farming experience taught him to be thankful to nature.
The very first word, “good”, shows the poet’s joy and love for the spring rain. The rain is good because it “knows” the time to come. Here the poet uses personification (拟人), as if the rain were smart enough to come in time for the farmers’ busy season.
When the rain comes, it appears during the night without making any noise. Unlike the summer storms, the spring rain finishes its task without being known.
In the third couplet, the poet describes a peaceful scene (景象) to us. In the night sky, the clouds look dark and heavy. It’s a sign that there will be enough rain during the night. The light from the riverboat makes the dark scene a bit livelier.
Lastly, the poet starts to imagine. Tomorrow morning, he thinks, the city of Chengdu will become beautiful when all of the flowers bloom (盛开) after the rain.
46. Which of the following rhymes (韵律) are right for this poem?
A. aa-bb-cc-dd B. ab-ab-cd-cd C. ab-cd-ab-cd D. ab-ba-cd-dc

A. It will fall when comes spring. B. With wind it steals in night. C. In boat a lantern looms. D. The town’s heavy with blooms.

Many Chinese people will wonder what presents to get for their moms on Mother’s Day, but not many people know Mother’s Day is actually a festival from overseas.
Mother’s Day originated (起源) in America during the early 20th century. In the 1980s, it was gradually accepted by Chinese.
Why did a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, traditional Chinese culture has always encouraged filial (孝顺的) devotion to parents. There are many stories which show filial respect in ancient China. For example, the story of “Taste Liquid (液体的) Medicine for Mother” tells us the filial virtue (美德) of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty. His mother had been sick for three years. He often stayed up at her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the liquid medicine first before she drank it. Also, mother’s love is a repeated subject in Chinese ancient poems, like “Song of the Parting Son” by Meng Jiao, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now this poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China are brought up with the education of filial devotion.
On special days, people often use roses or forget-me-nots to express love. Carnations are considered as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world, but few people know that China has its own flower for mothers—the tiger lily.
Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is perhaps just a simple expression of love from their children.
49. What is the poem of “Song of the Parting Son” mainly about?
A. The filial virtue of Emperor Wen. B. Caring for the old. C. Traditional Chinese medicine. D. A mother’s love for her son.
50. Mother’s Day is popular in China mainly because of ________.
A. widely spread in many countries
B. our ancient stories of respecting parents
C. our traditional cultural values
D. its simple way of expressing love
51. What is regarded as the Chinese own flower for a mother?
A. Roses. B. Forget-me-nots. C. Carnations. D. The tiger lily.

“Thank you for your email. I’ll leave the school to follow my dream of knitting (编织) sweaters for penguins in Antarctica (南极洲) and don’t work for the school. I will be back to school after my penguin friends are happy.” Weeks ago, a teacher in the UK sent this email to her Chinese student, and it soon became popular online.
You may find this email surprising, but knitting sweaters for penguins is a real act of kindness. The Penguin Foundation (基金会) and Phillip Island Nature Parks in Australia came up with the idea.
The activity began because of a serious oil spill (石油泄漏) near Phillip Island in the 1990s. During that time, the number and health of baby penguins had a serious drop. When little penguins were covered in oil, their lives were put in danger.
To solve this problem, the foundation asked people from all over the world to knit sweaters for penguins. These sweaters could keep them warm during the cleaning and stop them from eating the oil.
Luckily, the idea worked. In 2001, there was another oil spill near Phillip Island. This time, the sweaters helped save 96% of the penguins in the area.
However, some bird protection groups queried, “Might these sweaters put more weight on penguins?” To answer this, the foundation said that the sweaters are only used for a short time. If the penguins are better, they no longer wear them.
52. Why did the teacher leave the school?
A. To study penguins. B. To help penguins.
C. To have a good rest. D. To sell sweaters in Antarctica.
53. What can sweaters do for the penguins?
A. Help baby penguins grow faster. B. Protect them from falling into the water.
C. Stop them from eating the spilled oil. D. Clean baby penguins covered in oil.
54. What does the underlined word “queried” mean?
A. Showed. B. Questioned. C. Introduced. D. Advised.
55. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A new way to feed penguins. B. The problem of oil spills in Antarctica.
C. A teacher’s journey to Antarctica. D. Knitting sweaters to help penguins.
