To stop him from falling asleep, he tied his hair to the roof beam (横梁). When he felt sleepy and nodded off, the rope would pull his hair to wake him up. Then he would continue studying. Another learner, Sun Qin, used an awl (锥子) to prick (刺) his own leg when he wanted to sleep. In this way, he could go on studying. Kuang Heng was born in a poor family but he wanted to study. He had to work hard to support his family during the day. At night, he wanted to study but his family couldn’t afford lamp (灯) oil.

One day, on his way out, he saw an old woman grinding (摩擦) an iron (铁的) stick.

She always said, “I want to go to college and make our life better.” After Zhou Ying finished middle school, her father said sadly, “We can’t pay for your high school. You should take up a trade like making clothes. Then you can earn money to help the family.” Zhou Ying knelt (跪) down and begged (乞求), “I will borrow money from relatives myself. I promise (承诺) I’ll go to college someday. Believe me, I won’t let you down!” Her parents finally agreed, with tears in their eyes. Life was difficult for Zhou Ying in high school but she stuck to her dream bravely. Three years later, she achieved her dream—entered college. At college, Zhou Ying tutored (当家教) kids and did part-time jobs in her free time. Soon she could pay for her own books and food, and she slowly returned the money she had borrowed. She even sent money back home to support her family and pay for her younger brother’s school fees (费用). Several years later, when speaking as an outstanding graduate, Zhou Ying said, “No matter how hard life is, dreams can come true if we never give up. At least, we won’t regret trying our best.” 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( ) 21. Why did Zhou Ying’s parents want her to take up a trade? A. Because they couldn’t afford her study. B.

Hard work and a strong will are the keys to achieving dreams. C In a disaster, you may not stay calm as you thought before. Many people’s reactions can even put them in greater danger. One common but dangerous response (反应) is to freeze and do nothing. In scary situations, people’s brains may not work well, causing them to respond slowly. Sometimes, people don’t believe they are really in danger, so they ignore（忽视）what is happening. Moreover, stress makes clear thinking difficult. For example, during a house fire, people might risk their lives to run back into a burning building for their wallets without thinking. You should try to avoid this kind of situation for your safety. So, how can you improve your chances of surviving a disaster? The key is to be prepared in advance. Being prepared helps you act quickly without thinking too much. We can recognize (识别) danger early if we learn the warning signs of different natural disasters. You also need to be prepared, even after the danger passes. In big disasters like earthquakes or tsunamis, it takes time for rescuers (营救人员) to reach everyone in need. To increase your chance of survival (存活), make sure to have a disaster plan that includes escape (逃跑) routes and a meeting place for your family. You should also prepare a first-aid kit. Learning how to avoid common mistakes and prepare properly for disasters may just save your life! 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( ) 26. What is a common but dangerous response people have during a disaster? A. They cry loudly. B. They freeze and do nothing. C. They try to save everyone around them. D. They immediately call for help. ( ) 27. Why does the author suggest learning the warning signs of natural disasters? A. To become a scientist. B. To recognize danger early. C. To ignore them completely. D. To write a book about disasters. ( ) 28. Which of the following natural disasters is not mentioned in the text? A. B. C. D. ( ) 29. Which of the following is NOT a suggestion from the text? A. Turn off the gas and electricity. B. Create a disaster plan with escape routes. C. Prepare a first-aid kit. D. Choose a meeting place for family. ( ) 30. What is the main purpose of this text? A. To tell exciting stories about disasters. B. To explain how different disasters form. C. To teach people how to prepare for disasters. D. To show what disasters are like. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从方框内所列选项中，选出最佳选项填入对应空白处，使短文通顺、连贯。（选项中有一项为多余选项） D Reading is like opening a magical door to a new world.

First of all, it makes your vocabulary (词汇量) grow. 32 Before long, you’ll find yourself using these new words smoothly (流利地) — whether in your schoolwork or in a chat with your friends, making your expression (表达) clearer and richer. Second, reading helps you think better. Good books make you wonder: Why did the character choose that path? 33 This kind of thinking sharpens (使敏捷) your mind, teaching you to see things from different sides. 34 A funny story can chase away (驱逐) your sadness. A powerful story can cheer you up. It’s like a friend who listens and takes your worries away. So, pick up a book when you have time. 35 It’s a way to learn, to grow and to find joy. Reading is simple, but its magic lasts forever. 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳答案，使文章意思通顺、内容完整，并将选项填入下列横线上。 A. It’s not just words on pages. B. What might happen when the storm comes? C. Besides, reading brings joy and comfort. D. It can let you walk alongside heroes from the past. E. The stories and articles you read plant new words in your mind. F. Different kinds of books are helpful on your way to success. 31. ________ 32. ________ 33. ________ 34. ________ 35. ________ 2、 短文填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从方框内选出正确的词并用其适当形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空仅填一词，每词仅用一次。 with hurt hard trouble when mix care burn passenger kid Last summer, a big forest fire broke out near our town. Firefighters arrived quickly, but they couldn’t stop it. That’s because the winds were strong, 36 the flames (火焰) with dry leaves, making it spread faster. It was a real disaster. The fire 37 for days, destroying (毁灭) trees and houses nearby. Some firefighters got 38 —their hands, faces, arms and legs were burned—but they kept working. Even 39 their best efforts, much of the forest was destroyed. Why couldn’t they put it out? Because 40 fires grow too big, they become very dangerous.

Some think having more money means being happier, but that is not always true. Money can bring comfort. With enough money, we can buy nice food, live in a beautiful house and get good medical care when ill. These things can make us happy for a while. For example, a family with enough money to go on a trip together will surely create happy memories during the journey. However, money has its limits (限制). Many rich people still feel lonely or worried sometimes. They may have big houses but have no one to share them with, or they might constantly (持续地) worry about losing their wealth. On the other hand, people with little money can still be happy because they have loving families and true friends. In fact, happiness comes from many things. Qualities like kindness, health and wisdom are often more important than wealth. We need some money to cover basic needs, but we shouldn’t think it’s the only key to happiness. 根据材料内容，回答问题。 46.
