三、阅读理解
Sage Birden, an animal rescuer, said helping animals in need is all about “being kind”. Her animal protection experience in Shanghai began in 2014 after she took care of a friend’s cat. When the cat left, a cat-shaped hole was left in her heart.
As a “proud” member of Shanghai’s animal protection group, Birden remembers one special experience. Volunteers worked together to save a dying kitten in Hangzhou.
“It was midnight, and the man who found the kitten didn’t know what to do. No hospital was open, and there was no vet (兽医) around. There was no way to get the kitten to a safe place, no milk for it. There was nothing.” Birden said.
“But I don’t give up easily.” Birden remembered. She asked other volunteers for help. Then she found a driver and made the driver talk to the man who found the kitten.
After driving for more than four hours at night, the kitten was finally taken to the person who would take care of it.
“Everyone was happy and said, ‘Yes!’ It made us feel that if we work together, we can make it work.” Birden said.
When talking about why she helps animals in need, Birden said it’s about “being kind”.
“Helping animals doesn’t mean you have to run after a truck that steals cats and dogs. But in everyday life, if a kitten is crying, at least you can bring it inside to get it dry and warm, and not let it die.” Birden said.

A.She got hurt by the cat. B.There was a real hole in her heart like a cat shape.
C.She was very sad because the cat left. D.She missed the cat’s shape.

C.They gave it some food at once. D.They left it in a warm place.
4.Where was the kitten finally taken?

C.Back to the place where it was found. D.To the person who would look after it.

A.We must catch cat thieves every day.
B.Small kind acts can also help animals.
C.Only rich people can help animals.
D.We should keep all animals at home.
One afternoon, 12-year-old Tom walked past an old people’s home. He heard soft music coming from the garden. Curious, he went in and saw an old man sitting alone on a bench. The man looked sad, so Tom sat down next to him.
“Are you okay?” Tom asked gently. The old man nodded and said, “I used to play the violin in a band. But now my hands shake, and I can’t play anymore. Music was my whole life.” Tom felt sorry for him. He remembered he had a recorder at home. He told the old man, “I can play some songs for you tomorrow.”
The next day, Tom brought his recorder and played his favorite songs. The old man’s eyes lit up. He tapped his feet to the music and even sang along softly. After that, Tom visited the old people’s home every weekend. He played music for the old people, and sometimes they shared their life stories with him.
One month later, the old man told Tom, “Your music has brought happiness back into my life. I feel young again.” Tom was surprised. He didn’t know his small act could mean so much. He realized that happiness is not just about receiving, but also about giving. Even a simple song can brighten someone’s day.
From then on, Tom started a “Music for the Elderly” club at his school. Many classmates joined him. They visited different old people’s homes and played music for the residents.

【导语】本文讲述了小男孩Ryan得知乌干达儿童因喝脏水而生病后,决心为当地学校建水井,通过求助和打工筹钱,最终不仅建成水井,还帮助更多人获得干净水源,展现了孩子的善意也能改变世界的故事。
1.句意:乌干达的许多孩子经常喝脏水,身体变得不健康。
结合下文“became unhealthy”及后文提到建水井获取干净水,可推断孩子们喝的是不干净的水,dirty“脏的”符合语境;hot“热的”、salt“咸的”与后文的健康问题关联不紧密。
2.句意:Ryan感到非常难过,想要帮助他们。
看到孩子们因喝脏水生病、取水困难,Ryan的心情应是难过的,sad“难过的”符合语境;full“饱的”、thirsty“渴的”不符合此处情感表达。
3.句意:Ryan只有六岁,但他有一个伟大的想法。
前后两句存在转折关系:年纪小和想法伟大形成对比,but“但是”表转折,符合语境;if“如果”表条件,because“因为”表原因,均不符合逻辑。
4.句意:这口井大约需要2000美元。
此处表示“某物花费多少钱”,主语为事物“the well”,cost“花费”符合用法;carried“携带”、stored“储存”与语境无关。
5.句意:Ryan没有足够的钱,但他没有放弃。
前文提到他想建水井却资金不足,后文写他开始求助和筹钱,说明他没有放弃,give up“放弃”符合语境;go up“上升”、get up“起床”不符合文意。
6.句意:他还做一些零工来赚钱。
为了筹钱建水井,Ryan需要通过工作获取收入,jobs“工作”符合语境;baths“洗澡”、exercises“锻炼”与赚钱无关。
7.句意:一年之内,Ryan筹集了3000美元。
结合前文他求助、做零工的行为,此处指他筹集到了资金,raised“筹集”符合语境;wasted“浪费”、spent“花费”与文意相反。
8.句意:这所学校终于能建水井了。
筹到钱后,建水井的事得以实现,finally“终于”符合语境;widely“广泛地”、suddenly“突然”不符合事情发展的逻辑。
9.句意:现在人们不必走很远的路 (取水) 了。
前文提到孩子们需要走很远的路取水,现在有了水井,就不用长途跋涉了,travel在这里表示“长途跋涉、出行”,和前文“walk a long way”形成呼应;share“分享”、find“找到”不符合此处表达。
10.句意:任何人都可以做些事情来改变世界。
Ryan的故事展现了孩子的善意带来的改变,change“改变”符合主旨;see“看见”、visit“拜访”与“make a difference”的核心含义不符。

Every morning, we taught them English and told them stories about the outside world. A little girl named Lily 3 very shy at first. She never spoke in class.

On my way back home, I kept thinking about the trip. Before that, I always thought happiness came from new toys or delicious food. But now I know: happiness springs from 6 others.

三、阅读理解
Sage Birden, an animal rescuer, said helping animals in need is all about “being kind”. Her animal protection experience in Shanghai began in 2014 after she took care of a friend’s cat. When the cat left, a cat-shaped hole was left in her heart.
As a “proud” member of Shanghai’s animal protection group, Birden remembers one special experience. Volunteers worked together to save a dying kitten in Hangzhou.
“It was midnight, and the man who found the kitten didn’t know what to do. No hospital was open, and there was no vet (兽医) around. There was no way to get the kitten to a safe place, no milk for it. There was nothing.” Birden said.
“But I don’t give up easily.” Birden remembered. She asked other volunteers for help. Then she found a driver and made the driver talk to the man who found the kitten.
After driving for more than four hours at night, the kitten was finally taken to the person who would take care of it.
“Everyone was happy and said, ‘Yes!’ It made us feel that if we work together, we can make it work.” Birden said.
When talking about why she helps animals in need, Birden said it’s about “being kind”.
“Helping animals doesn’t mean you have to run after a truck that steals cats and dogs. But in everyday life, if a kitten is crying, at least you can bring it inside to get it dry and warm, and not let it die.” Birden said.

A.To a driver. B.To Birden’s home.
C.Back to the place where it was found. D.To the person who would look after it.

A.We must catch cat thieves every day.

C.Only rich people can help animals.

One afternoon, 12-year-old Tom walked past an old people’s home. He heard soft music coming from the garden. Curious, he went in and saw an old man sitting alone on a bench. The man looked sad, so Tom sat down next to him.
“Are you okay?” Tom asked gently. The old man nodded and said, “I used to play the violin in a band. But now my hands shake, and I can’t play anymore. Music was my whole life.” Tom felt sorry for him. He remembered he had a recorder at home. He told the old man, “I can play some songs for you tomorrow.”

He realized that happiness is not just about receiving, but also about giving. Even a simple song can brighten someone’s day.
From then on, Tom started a “Music for the Elderly” club at his school. Many classmates joined him. They visited different old people’s homes and played music for the residents.
