五.阅读理解(1*15)
A
First aid is the quick care a sick or injured person gets. Using basic first aid, you may be able to stop a small accident from getting worse. In some cases, you may even save a life.
The best way to prepare for these events is to get official first-aid training. Meanwhile, there are some basic life-saving steps you can learn.
If the person is not awake, try to wake them up. If he doesn’t wake up, make sure someone is calling 120 and move on to the next step. The basic idea of first aid that you need to know is ABC: airway, breathing, and circulation.
Airway: If someone is not breathing, the first thing you need to do is to clear the airway. When a person is unconscious (失去意识), his tongue can block his airway so he can no longer breathe. Put his head back and open the airway by pulling the tongue forward.
Breathing: If you have cleared a person’s airway but he is still not breathing, provide rescue breathing (人工呼吸) quickly.
Circulation: This means keeping the blood moving around the body. When you are giving rescue breathing, push hard on their chest so that their blood keeps flowing. If the person is breathing but doesn’t wake up, check their pulse (脉搏). If their heart stops, keep pressing on their chest.
Whenever possible, wash your hands completely with soap and water before providing first aid. This will help keep you from passing bacteria (细菌) on to the person you are saving.
36. What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about?
A. When first aid is needed. B. How important first aid is.
C. What basic first aid skills are. D. Where first aid is needed.
37. What is the first thing to do if someone is not breathing according to the text?
A. Call 110 at once. B. Clear his airway.
C. Check his pulse. D. Press hard on his chest.
38. What does the underlined word “circulation” in paragraph 6 refer to (指的是)?
A. The flow of blood. B. The way of breathing.
C. The process of waking up. D. The opening of the airway.
39. Which is TRUE according to the text?
A. First aid is useless for small accidents.
B. Official first-aid training is very important.
C. We can give first aid without learning anything.
D. Chest presses are needed when one’s heart is beating.
40. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to keep safe in daily life.
B. The importance of ABC in first aid.
C. Some basic knowledge about first aid.
D. How to stop bacteria from spreading.
【答案】36. B 37. B 38. A 39. B 40. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了急救的定义、重要性,以及急救中“ABC(气道、呼吸、循环)”的基础步骤和相关注意事项。
【36题详解】
第一段指出急救的作用:“Using basic first aid, you may be able to stop a small accident from getting worse. In some cases, you may even save a life”,这直接说明了急救的重要性。
【37题详解】
第四段说明急救步骤:“If someone is not breathing, the first thing you need to do is to clear the airway”,因此有人不呼吸时首先要清理气道。
【38题详解】
第六段解释“circulation”:“This means keeping the blood moving around the body”,说明该词指的是血液流动。
【39题详解】
第二段提到:“The best way to prepare for these events is to get official first-aid training”,说明官方急救培训非常重要。
【40题详解】
全文围绕急救展开,介绍了急救的定义、重要性和基础操作,因此主旨是介绍一些关于急救的基础知识。

“It all started when my friend felt upset about an exam,” Yang Yang explained. “I drew a small sun on a piece of paper and wrote ‘Everything will be OK’. It made him feel a lot better. I realized that a small act of kindness can make a big difference.” His hobby helps him to grow up and become more caring.
Making these cards takes time and energy, but Yang Yang never feels tired. He feels a strong sense of achievement when he sees the smile on people’s faces. “Painting helps me calm down, and seeing others happy because of my work makes me happy too.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了15岁男孩杨阳通过绘画创作带有积极信息的卡片,发起“绘画传递温暖”项目,用微小的善举帮助他人、传递爱与温暖的故事,展现了善良的力量。
【41题详解】
第一段“Yang Yang, a 15-year-old boy from Zhengzhou, loves to relax by painting in his free time.”提示,杨阳的爱好是画画。
【42题详解】
第二段“He paints beautiful cards with positive messages on them…”提到,杨阳创作带有积极信息的卡片,送给需要鼓励的人,目的是让他人振作起来及结合第三段“...It made him feel a lot better.”可知,他发起项目是为了用卡片给人们带去鼓励与安慰。
【43题详解】
第二段“Then, he gives these cards to people who might need some encouragement.”及结合上下文杨阳制作的卡片上写着“You are great!”和“Smile, and the world smiles with you.” 这类积极、打气的话语,送给医院的孩子、独居老人、疲惫的快递员,目的是让他们振作起来、感受到温暖,和选项D“支持”含义最接近。
【44题详解】
文中“He has given cards to kids in the hospital, old people living alone in his community, and even tired deliverymen on the street.”杨阳主动创作卡片帮助他人、传递温暖,体现了他的善良与关怀,因此最适合描述他的词是“kind and caring”。
【45题详解】
全文核心主旨是杨阳通过画卡片的小事,让他人获得温暖与快乐,对应原文第三段“I realized that a small act of kindness can make a big difference.”说明作者想告诉我们微小的善举意义重大。

【答案】
例文
Dear Mr. Li,
I want to express my thanks to you.
Last year, I struggled with English grammar and was afraid to speak in class. I fell behind my classmates and felt so discouraged that I almost gave up. You noticed my trouble and spent extra time explaining rules patiently after school. You also corrected my pronunciation and encouraged me to join the English corner, praising every small progress I made. With your help, my English improved a lot and I built up my confidence again.
Thank you for your endless patience and kindness. I will keep working hard and remember your help forever. Wish you all the best in your work and be happy every day!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

First aid is the quick care a sick or injured person gets. Using basic first aid, you may be able to stop a small accident from getting worse. In some cases, you may even save a life.
The best way to prepare for these events is to get official first-aid training. Meanwhile, there are some basic life-saving steps you can learn.
If the person is not awake, try to wake them up. If he doesn’t wake up, make sure someone is calling 120 and move on to the next step. The basic idea of first aid that you need to know is ABC: airway, breathing, and circulation.
Airway: If someone is not breathing, the first thing you need to do is to clear the airway. When a person is unconscious (失去意识), his tongue can block his airway so he can no longer breathe. Put his head back and open the airway by pulling the tongue forward.
Breathing: If you have cleared a person’s airway but he is still not breathing, provide rescue breathing (人工呼吸) quickly.
Circulation: This means keeping the blood moving around the body. When you are giving rescue breathing, push hard on their chest so that their blood keeps flowing. If the person is breathing but doesn’t wake up, check their pulse (脉搏). If their heart stops, keep pressing on their chest.
Whenever possible, wash your hands completely with soap and water before providing first aid. This will help keep you from passing bacteria (细菌) on to the person you are saving.
36. What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about?
A. When first aid is needed. B. How important first aid is.
C. What basic first aid skills are. D. Where first aid is needed.
37. What is the first thing to do if someone is not breathing according to the text?

A. First aid is useless for small accidents.
B. Official first-aid training is very important.
C. We can give first aid without learning anything.
D. Chest presses are needed when one’s heart is beating.
40. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to keep safe in daily life.

He has given cards to kids in the hospital, old people living alone in his community, and even tired deliverymen on the street.
“It all started when my friend felt upset about an exam,” Yang Yang explained. “I drew a small sun on a piece of paper and wrote ‘Everything will be OK’. It made him feel a lot better. I realized that a small act of kindness can make a big difference.” His hobby helps him to grow up and become more caring.
Making these cards takes time and energy, but Yang Yang never feels tired. He feels a strong sense of achievement when he sees the smile on people’s faces. “Painting helps me calm down, and seeing others happy because of my work makes me happy too.
