二、阅读理解 (20小题,每小题2分,共40分)
阅读下面四篇语言材料,然后按文后要求做题。
A
Almost all children expect their parents to give them more pocket money. But most of the time, their parents just give them a certain amount (数量). And the amount of money that children get from their parents is different from family to family.
Giving pocket money to children helps them start learning about the value of money and how to manage it. When they save money, they can learn about waiting for the things they want. Pocket money can also help children learn about the consequences (后果) of losing money or spending it unwisely.
My parents gave me pocket money when I began to go to school. At that time, I got 10 yuan per week and I saved most of the money. But how much pocket money do children get now? What do they usually spend their money on? We did a survey among 120 students. Here are the results.

A. He saved most of it. B. He used it to help others.
C. He spent it on school things. D. He bought many snacks with it
2. How many children get ¥100 or more pocket money every week?
A. 8. B. 10. C. 25. D. 45.

A. Saving. B. Snacks. C. Toys. D. Books and school things.

由文中第三段“I got 10 yuan per week and I saved most of the money.”可知,作者将大部分零花钱存了起来。
【2题详解】

B
We all learn best by doing things in person. We need to try, make mistakes, and try again. This is how we grow and move forward.
Life is a journey of learning, and the only way to get the better of it is by living it. We usually learn directly through our own experiences. For example, when we’re babies, we learn to walk by falling many times. It is true that we try our best to have our own experiences to learn, and then grow. By living the experience itself, we internalize (内化) it meaningfully and deeply.
No one can always succeed. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Getting up and moving on make us braver and stronger. Many famous people failed before they succeeded. Thomas Edison failed 1, 000 times before inventing the light bulb. Michael Jordan was refused by his school basketball team before he became a great basketball player. J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter was rejected (拒绝) 12 times before it became a worldwide hit.
Life is like a school where we learn by doing. The more we experience, the more we learn. So don’t be afraid to try new things. Make mistakes, and keep moving forward.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

C. Try new things, and then we can learn more. D. We make fewer mistakes when growing older.
9. Why does the writer mention Thomas Edison, Michael Jordan and J. K. Rowling?
A. To tell us they are very famous people
B. To explain that famous people succeed all the time.
C. To tell us we should learn from these famous people.
D. To explain famous people failed before they succeeded.
10. What does the writer want to tell us?

【答案】6. B 7. D 8. A 9. D 10. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要告诉我们要亲身实践、不惧犯错,在亲身经历中学习成长、不断前行。
【6题详解】
根据第二段中“We usually learn directly through our own experiences. For example, when we're babies, we learn to walk by falling many times.”可知,婴儿学走路是通过自己的经历(摔倒多次)来学习的。
【7题详解】
根据第二段画线词所在句“By living the experience itself, we internalize it meaningfully and deeply.”可知,句意为“通过亲身经历体验本身,我们能有意义且深刻地内化它”。这里的“it”指代前文提到的“the experience”。
【8题详解】

【10题详解】
文章第一段首句“We all learn best by doing things in person.”和最后一段“Life is like a school where we learn by doing.”均强调了“通过实践/做事来学习”的核心观点,全文围绕亲身体验和从错误中学习展开。

Nowadays, we have kinds of technologies that can protect us from different disasters (灾难). With them, we even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, will hit. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters.
The drone (无人机) is one of them. It can be used to send food, water and important things when a natural disaster happens. Very often the buildings are too dangerous for rescue (救援) teams to get in, but they can make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive first.
Social media is also a useful tool when it comes to natural disasters. With its help, people can know about the natural disasters earlier. And some social media platforms (平台) allow people to mark themselves as safe after disasters so others can know their status (状态). Social media is also a place for the latest news, so people can learn what is going on in the disaster areas. Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, live-streaming (直播) helped raise a lot of money for Henan after the flood in 2021.
Although these technologies can help when there is a natural disaster, we still need to prepare necessary tools and learn important skills to protect ourselves.

A. To raise money. B. To help carry important things.

A. The drone’s B. The rescue team’s.
C. The important thing’s D. The social media’s.
14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Social media can help search for people who are alive.
B. Social media can help raise money after a disaster.
C. The drone helped save a lot of people in Henan in 2021.
D. We needn’t prepare tools with the help of social media before a disaster comes.
15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
【答案】11. A 12. C 13. D 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了一些在发生自然灾害时可以提供帮助的现代科技。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据“we even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, will hit. ”可知“the typhoon”指的是一种灾难,故选A。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据“ but they can make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive first.”可知无人机飞入建筑物,首先搜索那些还活着的人。故选C。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Social media is also a useful tool when it comes to natural disasters. With its help, people can know about the natural disasters earlier”(谈到自然灾害时,社交媒体也是一个有用的工具。有了它的帮助,人们可以更早地了解自然灾害)可知its指的是“社交媒体的”。故选D。
【14题详解】

二、阅读理解 (20小题,每小题2分,共40分)
阅读下面四篇语言材料,然后按文后要求做题。
A
Almost all children expect their parents to give them more pocket money. But most of the time, their parents just give them a certain amount (数量). And the amount of money that children get from their parents is different from family to family.
Giving pocket money to children helps them start learning about the value of money and how to manage it. When they save money, they can learn about waiting for the things they want. Pocket money can also help children learn about the consequences (后果) of losing money or spending it unwisely.
My parents gave me pocket money when I began to go to school. At that time, I got 10 yuan per week and I saved most of the money. But how much pocket money do children get now? What do they usually spend their money on? We did a survey among 120 students. Here are the results.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
1. What did the writer do with his pocket money?
A. He saved most of it. B. He used it to help others.
C. He spent it on school things. D. He bought many snacks with it
2. How many children get ¥100 or more pocket money every week?
A. 8. B. 10. C. 25. D. 45.
3. How much money do about 25 students get every week?
A. Less than ¥30. B. ¥30-49. C. ¥50-79. D. ¥80-99.
4. What do the students spend the most pocket money on?
A. Saving. B. Snacks. C. Toys. D. Books and school things.
5. What does the second paragraph want to tell us?
A. We should spend pocket money wisely. B. Giving pocket money to children is helpful.
C. We should save money for the things we want. D. Learning about the value of money is important.
B
We all learn best by doing things in person. We need to try, make mistakes, and try again. This is how we grow and move forward.
Life is a journey of learning, and the only way to get the better of it is by living it. We usually learn directly through our own experiences. For example, when we’re babies, we learn to walk by falling many times. It is true that we try our best to have our own experiences to learn, and then grow. By living the experience itself, we internalize (内化) it meaningfully and deeply.
No one can always succeed. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Getting up and moving on make us braver and stronger. Many famous people failed before they succeeded. Thomas Edison failed 1, 000 times before inventing the light bulb. Michael Jordan was refused by his school basketball team before he became a great basketball player. J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter was rejected (拒绝) 12 times before it became a worldwide hit.
Life is like a school where we learn by doing. The more we experience, the more we learn. So don’t be afraid to try new things. Make mistakes, and keep moving forward.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
6. “Babies learn to walk” is an example of _________.
A. learning through the experience of others B. learning through our own experience
C. learning from our own memories D. learning from parents’ advice
7. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Life. B. Journey. C. Learning. D. Experience
8. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A. It’s usual to fail when growing. B. Learning makes us braver and stronger.
C. Try new things, and then we can learn more. D. We make fewer mistakes when growing older.
9. Why does the writer mention Thomas Edison, Michael Jordan and J. K. Rowling?
A. To tell us they are very famous people
B. To explain that famous people succeed all the time.
C. To tell us we should learn from these famous people.
D. To explain famous people failed before they succeeded.
10. What does the writer want to tell us?
A. To learn from others. B. To keep moving forward.
C. To learn by doing. D. To keep making mistakes.

Nowadays, we have kinds of technologies that can protect us from different disasters (灾难). With them, we even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, will hit. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters.
The drone (无人机) is one of them. It can be used to send food, water and important things when a natural disaster happens. Very often the buildings are too dangerous for rescue (救援) teams to get in, but they can make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive first.
Social media is also a useful tool when it comes to natural disasters. With its help, people can know about the natural disasters earlier. And some social media platforms (平台) allow people to mark themselves as safe after disasters so others can know their status (状态). Social media is also a place for the latest news, so people can learn what is going on in the disaster areas. Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, live-streaming (直播) helped raise a lot of money for Henan after the flood in 2021.
Although these technologies can help when there is a natural disaster, we still need to prepare necessary tools and learn important skills to protect ourselves.
11. What do you think “the typhoon” in Paragraph 1 probably is?
A. A kind of disaster. B. A kind of technology.
C. A rescue team. D. A kind of tool.
12. Why do rescue teams make the drones fly into the buildings first after disasters?
A. To raise money. B. To help carry important things.
C. To search for people who are still alive. D. To ask more people for help.
13. What does the underlined word “its” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The drone’s B. The rescue team’s.
C. The important thing’s D. The social media’s.
14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Social media can help search for people who are alive.
B. Social media can help raise money after a disaster.
C. The drone helped save a lot of people in Henan in 2021.
D. We needn’t prepare tools with the help of social media before a disaster comes.
15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
D
