【导语】本文讲述了小男孩Tommy救助被困小鸟Chirpy,之后与小鸟相伴成长、用爱对待动物,最终带动村民保护动物,让村庄成为人与动物的快乐家园的感人故事。
【11题详解】
句意:Tommy热爱所有动物,尤其是一只叫Chirpy的小鸟。
根据后文提到的a tiny bird、Tommy’s love for animals,能判断这里说的是热爱动物。villagers村民、neighbors邻居、plants植物均不符合语境。
【12题详解】
句意:Chirpy有着美丽的羽毛,还有你曾听过的最甜美的歌声。
前文提到了sweetest song,对应“听到歌声”的语境,用heard, hear的过去分词。wrote写、ordered命令、sang唱不符合逻辑。
【13题详解】
句意:虽然她用力扇动翅膀,却无法逃脱。
这是让步关系,Although虽然用于引导让步状语从句。If如果、Because因为、Until直到不符合逻辑。
【14题详解】
句意:她只能哭喊着求救。
cry for help是固定搭配,意为“呼救”,符合小鸟被困的情境。sit坐、stand站、go去不符合语境。
【15题详解】
句意:他小心地把她的脚从灌木中弄出来,温柔地抱住她。
救助小鸟需要动作轻柔,carefully小心地符合语境。highly高度地、strongly用力地、closely紧密地不合适。
【16题详解】
句意:Chirpy在Tommy身边感到安全,开心地飞回她的树上,唱着感恩的歌。
小鸟的行动方式是飞,flew是fly的过去式符合。ran跑、jumped跳、walked走不是小鸟的行动方式。
【17题详解】
句意:Tommy和Chirpy一起长大,一起玩耍、欢笑。
grew up(长大)符合“从小相伴到长大”的语境。came up出现、broke up破碎、got up起床不符合。
【18题详解】
句意:当Tommy成为年轻人,他经常和Chirpy分享他的梦想。
根据后文“He wished to”可知是分享梦想,dreams梦想符合语境。toys玩具是童年物品、regrets遗憾、songs歌不如“梦想”贴合成长后的状态。
【19题详解】
句意:最终,他们的村庄成为了人和动物都快乐的家园。
home家园符合村庄成为生物共同栖息地的语境。house房子,侧重单个建筑、zoo动物园、school学校不符合。
【20题详解】
句意:这个感人的故事告诉我们,爱和关怀可以在人和动物之间搭建桥梁。
这个关于爱与守护的故事是感人的,touching感人的符合。boring无聊的、relaxing令人放松的、disappointing令人失望的不符合。

Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission.
Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2, 000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.

Imagine a house made of glass in the forest. You can watch the sunset(日落) in the house every night. A young artist couple made that dream come true. Nick and Lila built such a house. They made the whole thing by hand for only $500. Why did it cost so little? Because it’s mainly made of old windows.
Nick and Lila traveled around the country collecting windows from old houses and yard sales. They only had to buy a few new windows to complete the wall. Another cost saver—Nick’s family happens to own a piece of land in West Virginia, so they built on that land.
The crazy couple gave up their jobs and spent months just building this glass house in the forest. It sounds like a joke. Wouldn’t we all love to drop everything and build a glass house in the middle of the forest, right? I’m crazy about the house and the way they made it.
I love what Lila says about the house. “I never thought I could build such a house. When you build something like this, you feel great. Nick and Lila say the light in the house changes during the day. If you have time, you can spend the whole day just looking out of the windows, watching the light and paying attention to all those little changes. They feel a sense of satisfaction.

So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites (卫星) and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired (赋予灵感) by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.
Since thousands of years ago, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover (巡视器) was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
Kua Fu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kua Fu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called KuaFu Mission.
Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2, 000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.
From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology.
31. In China, space scientists get ideas from ________ when naming satellites.
①old stories ②traditional projects
③ancient famous people ④ popular inventions
A. ①② B. ①③ C. ②④ D. ③④
32. What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage?
A. It moves around the moon. B. It protects the Jade Rabbit.
C. It “visits” the sun with the scientists. D. It is the world’s first man-made satellite.
33. How does the writer support his opinion in Paragraph 4?
A. By listing numbers. B. By comparing facts.
C. By giving an example. D. By reporting a result.
34. Which is the right structure of the passage?
(①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph 2,…)
A. B.
C. D.
35. What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing the passage?
A. To spread the traditional Chinese culture.
B. To explain how our scientists develop the space industry.
C. To introduce the achievements in our science and technology.
D. To tell how traditional Chinese culture influences our space science.

Imagine a house made of glass in the forest. You can watch the sunset(日落) in the house every night. A young artist couple made that dream come true. Nick and Lila built such a house. They made the whole thing by hand for only $500. Why did it cost so little? Because it’s mainly made of old windows.
Nick and Lila traveled around the country collecting windows from old houses and yard sales. They only had to buy a few new windows to complete the wall. Another cost saver—Nick’s family happens to own a piece of land in West Virginia, so they built on that land.
The crazy couple gave up their jobs and spent months just building this glass house in the forest. It sounds like a joke. Wouldn’t we all love to drop everything and build a glass house in the middle of the forest, right? I’m crazy about the house and the way they made it.
I love what Lila says about the house. “I never thought I could build such a house. When you build something like this, you feel great. Nick and Lila say the light in the house changes during the day. If you have time, you can spend the whole day just looking out of the windows, watching the light and paying attention to all those little changes. They feel a sense of satisfaction.
