They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level. To my surprise, although the test was very easy, over half of them failed it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me. I am busy preparing lessons, and reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better and we are now good friends. I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I’m very happy, and the experience has been very useful for me. I love the small village and the children.

It’s said that Nü Wa made humans. Nü Wa was a goddess with a human head and a snake body. She used yellow clay (黏土) to make people and animals. People lived a happy life in the world. But one day, there was a big fight between two gods. One god was Gong Gong, the god of water. The other was Zhu Rong, the god of fire. Gong Gong lost the fight in the end. He knocked (敲;击) down Buzhou Mountain. This mountain held up the sky. So something really bad happened. The sky broke and a lot of water flooded (淹没) the earth. Nü Wa was very sad seeing it. She decided to save the people and repair the sky. Nü Wa collected green, red, white, black and yellow rocks. And she put the rocks to fill the hole in the sky with the five-colored rocks. However, the repair was not completely solid enough. Nü Wa then saw a huge turtle (乌龟). To make the sky stronger, she cut off the legs of the big turtle and used its legs to support the sky. With the stones and the turtle’s legs holding it up, the sky was repaired. The sky was whole again, but a terrible dragon was harming the people at the same time. Nü Wa went to fight against it. Nü Wa killed it quickly. The world was peaceful again. Repairing the sky was hard work, but Nü Wa saved her people and made the world beautiful again. 16．What did Nü Wa look like? A． B． C． D． 17．What happened to the sky? A．Zhu Rong, the god of fire, won the fight and held up the sky. B．Gong Gong, the god of water, lost the fight and held up the sky. C．Zhu Rong knocked down the mountain, and then the sky broke. D．Gong Gong knocked down the mountain, and then the sky broke. 18．What does the underlined word “solid” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．High. B．Natural. C．Strong. D．Far. 19．Which is the right order of the story according to the passage? ①Nü Wa killed the dragon                ②the sky broke        ③Nü Wa filled the hole in the sky        ④two gods fought ⑤Nü Wa made people and animals A．④②③①⑤ B．④⑤②③① C．③①⑤④② D．⑤④②③① 20．What is the best title for the passage? A．Nü Wa and the Sky Repair B．The Story of Nü Wa C．Nü Wa’s Fight and Kill D．The Beautiful and Kind Goddess 【答案】16．B 17．D 18．C 19．D 20．A 【导语】本文是一篇神话故事，讲述了女娲造人以及女娲补天、除恶龙拯救世界的故事。 16．第一段提到“Nü Wa was a goddess with a human head and a snake body”，这直接说明了女娲的外貌特征是人首蛇身。 17．第二段提到“Gong Gong lost the fight in the end. He knocked (敲;击) down Buzhou Mountain. This mountain held up the sky. So something really bad happened. The sky broke and a lot of water flooded (淹没) the earth”，明确指出共工撞倒了不周山，然后天破了。 18．四段提到“However, the repair was not completely solid enough. Nü Wa then saw a huge turtle (乌龟). To make the sky stronger, she cut off the legs of the big turtle and used its legs to support the sky”，根据后文女娲用乌龟腿让天空更坚固，可知这里说修补不够“solid”，意思是不够坚固，所以“solid”意思是“Strong”。 19．第一段提到“She used yellow clay (黏土) to make people and animals”，即⑤女娲造人和动物；第二段提到“But one day, there was a big fight between two gods”，即④两个神打架；第二段提到“The sky broke and a lot of water flooded (淹没) the earth”，即②天破了；第三段提到“And she put the rocks to fill the hole in the sky with the five-colored rocks”，即③女娲用五彩石补天上的洞；第五段提到“Nü Wa killed it quickly”，即①女娲杀了恶龙。所以正确顺序是⑤④②③①。 20．文章主要围绕女娲造人后，天破女娲补天展开，A选项“Nü Wa and the Sky Repair”（女娲与补天）最能概括文章主要内容。 Passage 5 Our planet is full of amazing natural wonders.

Dan wants to open a special park for blind skateboarders in his city. “Some people think it is not possible for the blind to skate, but I think they can do it successfully.

They talked and laughed happily. As they came near to a crossing, another car hit her car. It didn’t stop until it hit a tree. As smoke rose from the car, a person nearby shouted, “It’s about to blow up (爆炸)! Get out.” Norwood crawled (爬) out through the window ▲ . Two of her friends also freed themselves successfully. They ran for their lives together. But halfway down the street, she realized that her best friend, Simmons, wasn’t with them. Norwood ran back and found Simmons unconscious (无知觉的) in the back seat. She threw the back door open and pulled her friend out. She dragged Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. There was no sign of life. Another girl called 911 and Norwood started CPR (心肺复苏). Norwood learnt CPR on her own just weeks before. Kneeling on the ground and looking down at her dying friend, Norwood knew she had just little time to practise what she’d learnt. She started pressing Simmons’ chest with her interlocked fingers and breathing into her friend’s mouth in the hope of filling her lungs with the kiss of life (人工呼吸). After some time, Simmons began coughing and taking quick breaths again. The CPR worked! Accidents can happen anytime and anywhere, and having first aid skills allows us to act quickly and confidently in emergencies. Whether it’s CPR, treating cuts, or knowing how to call for help properly, these skills give us the power to save lives. Everyone should take the time to learn some first aid skills. 46．How did the car accident happen? A．Norwood drove too quickly. B．Norwood’s car hit a building.

D．She called 911 and the doctor told her how to do it. 49．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us? A．How to call for help in emergencies. B．We should learn first aid skills. C．How to avoid suffering from accidents. D．Where to take first aid training courses. 50．What’s the best title for the text? A．A True Friendship B．A Story of Saving Lives C．The Importance of First Aid D．A Frightening Night 【答案】46．C 47．D 48．A 49．B 50．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Torriell Norwood在遭遇严重车祸后，勇敢自救并利用自学的急救知识成功挽救昏迷朋友生命的感人故事。 【详解】46．第一段内容，“As they came near to a crossing, another car hit her car.”，这表明事故是由第三方车辆撞击造成的，而非Norwood超速或误操作。 47．Norwood从车窗爬了出来，紧接着后文提到她的两个朋友也成功自救。此处填入的句子需要承接Norwood逃生的动作，并解释她为何选择从窗户出来。结合车祸后车门往往变形难以打开的常识，以及后文她朋友也“freed themselves”（自救），可以推断她从窗户爬出是因为车门无法打开。 48．第四段内容，“Norwood learnt CPR on her own just weeks before.”，这明确指出了她掌握这项技能的方式是自学，而非学校课程或他人指导。 49．最后一段从具体的故事延伸到了普遍的道理。文章提到“Accidents can happen anytime... having first aid skills allows us to act quickly... Everyone should take the time to learn some first aid skills.”，这一段的主旨不再是讲故事，而是通过故事升华主题，呼吁大家学习急救。 50．文章虽然涉及友谊，也描述了一个可怕的夜晚，但核心情节在于Norwood利用急救技能挽救生命的过程。 Passage 11 We did a survey of 100 students in our school last week.

So far, 34 students have joined the programme. According to the charity’s director, H-J Colston-Inge, the initiative helps young British people learn more about China firsthand. She believes it is crucial to understand different cultures. Students like Zoe Capps share this view, adding that living in China helped them grow, become more mature, learn more about the world, and make great friends. One such student is Calista Ajibola, an 18-year-old who just finished the programme. She described her time in China as a challenging but meaningful experience, saying she felt like she left a part of herself there. Even though Calista had learnt Mandarin for five years and achieved the top grade in her GCSE exam, she initially (初) found communication difficult. People often asked her to speak English instead, which disappointed her at the time. However, she didn’t give up. Through courage, consistent practice, and help from her teacher, her Chinese improved significantly. Later, she could talk freely with taxi drivers, help her family with travel, and even bargain in markets. When she returned home, she brought back not only improved language skills but also lasting friendships, unforgettable memories, and even some instant noodles and magnets as souvenirs. She said the programme was one of the best things in her life. Soon, more British teenagers will go to China to begin their own journeys. As the ancient Chinese saying goes, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” This programme is truly helping to build bridges between the two cultures. 56．What was Calista’s main challenge when she first arrived in China? A．She couldn’t pass her exams. B．She didn’t like Chinese food. C．She had no friends to help her. D．She found it difficult to communicate in Chinese. 57．What does the underlined word “bargain” in the third paragraph most likely mean? A．To avoid shopping. B．To sell things in a market. C．To buy something expensive. D．To discuss with the seller for a better price. 58．What can be inferred about Calista’s attitude after returning home? A．She regretted going to China. B．She valued the experience deeply. C．She wanted to forget everything about China. D．She only cared about improving her language skills. 59．What is the main purpose of the scholarship programme? A．To help Chinese students study in the UK. B．To teach British students how to bargain in markets. C．To sell Chinese products like instant noodles and magnets. D．To encourage British students to learn about Chinese culture. 60．Why does the author use the Chinese saying at the end of the text? A．To show that learning Chinese is difficult. B．To suggest that students should travel more. C．To explain why Calista stayed in China for two years. D．To stress the importance of starting small for big cultural exchanges. 【答案】56．D 57．D 58．B 59．D 60．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了英国慈善机构“Engage with China”开展的奖学金项目为英国年轻人提供了在中国进行两年学习体验的独特机会，通过讲述参与该项目的学生Calista Ajibola在中国的经历，包括她面临的挑战、语言能力的提升以及收获的友谊和回忆等，展现了该项目对促进英中文化交流的积极意义。 【详解】56．第三段中“she initially found communication difficult”，直接说明她刚来中国时主要难题是中文沟通困难。 57．结合生活常识与语境，在市场里和卖家砍价、议价是固定场景，bargain意为“和卖家讨价还价以获得更好的价格”。 58．第四段中“She said the programme was one of the best things in her life.”，能看出她十分珍惜这段在中国的经历。 59．文中第一段“the initiative helps young British people learn more about China firsthand. She believes it is crucial to understand different cultures.”以及最后一段“This programme is truly helping to build bridges between the two cultures”，说明该项目旨在帮助英国年轻人亲身体验中国，了解不同文化很重要，且该项目有助于搭建两国文化桥梁，所以主要目的是鼓励英国学生了解中国文化。 60．文末最后一段“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”引用“千里之行，始于足下”，结合前文提到更多英国青少年将去中国开启旅程，以及该项目对文化交流的作用，可知作者用这句中国谚语是为了强调从小处着手对于大型文化交流的重要性。 18 / 18乐思英语 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $考前特训 期末考 阅读理解 仿真模拟 考前特训（广东专用） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 测 试 范 围 Unit 1 Time to Relax Unit 5 Nature’s Temper Unit 2 Stay Healthy Unit 6 Crossing Cultures Unit 3 Growing Up Unit 7 A Good Read Unit 4 The Wonders of Nature Unit 8 Making a Difference Passage 1 Come and Help with the City GamesOur City Games will be held from next July 20th to 28th.

Passage 10 Torriell Norwood was driving through Florida with three other girls inside her car. They talked and laughed happily. As they came near to a crossing, another car hit her car. It didn’t stop until it hit a tree. As smoke rose from the car, a person nearby shouted, “It’s about to blow up (爆炸)! Get out.” Norwood crawled (爬) out through the window ▲ . Two of her friends also freed themselves successfully. They ran for their lives together. But halfway down the street, she realized that her best friend, Simmons, wasn’t with them. Norwood ran back and found Simmons unconscious (无知觉的) in the back seat. She threw the back door open and pulled her friend out. She dragged Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. There was no sign of life. Another girl called 911 and Norwood started CPR (心肺复苏). Norwood learnt CPR on her own just weeks before. Kneeling on the ground and looking down at her dying friend, Norwood knew she had just little time to practise what she’d learnt. She started pressing Simmons’ chest with her interlocked fingers and breathing into her friend’s mouth in the hope of filling her lungs with the kiss of life (人工呼吸). After some time, Simmons began coughing and taking quick breaths again. The CPR worked! Accidents can happen anytime and anywhere, and having first aid skills allows us to act quickly and confidently in emergencies.
