专题04 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题01 人与社会——志愿服务 Passage 1 (24-25八年级下·江苏扬州宝应县·期末)After the lunchtime rush, it’s time for the food delivery (递送) drivers to eat. Liu Lijie, halfway through a 13-hour workday, usually rides to a restaurant in Beijing for his favorite choice—mutton noodle soup, for 12 yuan, 6 yuan cheaper than the regular price. The reduced-price meals, known as aixincan or loving meals, are available at some restaurants in large cities, home to large populations of migrant workers (农民工) who come looking for jobs. “There is a lot of pressure in life since I came to Beijing to work, so eating aixincan is both cheap and convenient,” says 40-year-old Liu, who arrived in Beijing two years ago from Shanxi province. In order to get back earlier to make money, he digs into his meal hurriedly at the Yushiji Restaurant. Luo Shuai, another delivery driver, learned of Yushiji’s aixincan through his workmates and has since become a daily customer at the restaurant, which serves (服务，招待) food from his native (本地的) Henan province. “It makes me think of my hometown,” says 27-year-old Luo, who moved to Beijing at the end of last year. Feng Yong, the 43-year-old manager of a meat pie restaurant, spends much of his day making pies. He says the restaurant began serving aixincan to help people in need and inspire others to do the same. As a Shandong province native who moved to Beijing more than 20 years ago, Feng says he has a deep understanding of being an outsider working in a new city. The key, he says, is to avoid any embarrassment (尴尬) for customers who are in need. The staff do what they can to offer help and don’t ask any private things of the customers. “We don’t refuse them anything, just as long as they’re full,” Feng says. 1．Why does Liu Lijie go to the restaurant in Beijing after the lunchtime rush? A．To have a reduced-price meal. B．To get back to make money. C．To deliver food for the restaurant. D．To sell mutton noodle soup. 2．What makes Luo Shuai homesick? A．The help from his workmates. B．The cheap and convenient meals. C．The Henan food in the restaurant. D．The meat pies in Yushiji Restaurant. 3．According to Feng Yong, what’s important when serving aixincan for customers? A．Offering any kind of help to them. B．Making them feel no embarrassment. C．Asking them to come and eat regularly. D．Caring about their private life. 4．What can we infer from the passage? A．All restaurants in big cities offer aixincan. B．Aixincan is only for delivery drivers. C．Aixincan helps migrant workers feel less lonely. D．Delivery drivers usually have enough time for lunch. Passage 2 (24-25八年级下·江苏南京联合体·期末) “I found it! I found it!” a second grader shouted excitedly as he rushed to Ms. Liao, the librarian. “This is exactly what I’ve been looking for — a copy of Journey to the West with pictures of Guanyin in it.” Liao checked the student’s library card. “Have a good read, my dear,” she said. Seeing the boy rush back to a plastic chair in the corner of the room, holding the book like a box of treasure, Liao let out a broad smile. “Children need a stable (稳定的) environment to develop reading skills,” she said. The library, covering less than 20 square meters and holding about 5,000 books, provides such an environment for the children of migrant workers (农民工) in Tongzhou, Beijing. As a volunteer librarian, Liao helps children borrow and return books and organize the shelves. She also enjoys chatting with the students about their choices. The library is part of the Weilan Library project, which works to set up libraries for migrant children. By late October, the project had 82 branches in different cities, helping more than 80,000young readers. Zuo Qiao, director of the Weilan Library project, works hard on it. “Three rules are important in any one of our libraries: a large number of high-quality children’s books; consistent (连贯的) opening hours; and helping kids make their own choice of books to borrow and read,” he said. About five years ago, Zuo found that many schools for migrant children had a dust-covered room with books, shelves, desks and chairs all over the place. The room was once a library donated by a charity group, he added. “Many good-hearted people donated books and set up libraries at these schools, but they often ended up being forgotten and left in darkness in the long run,” he said. He believed that every child should have the right to go to libraries, so he and his friends started the Weilan Library project. On the window of a library, there is a postcard written by a third grader. It reads, “Your library is small, for us it is a grand hall of knowledge and teaches us so much.” 1．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 mean? A．Ms. Liao had a good time chatting with the boy. B．Ms. Liao was happy to see the boy enjoy reading. C．Ms. Liao was glad to get a box of treasure from the boy. D．Ms. Liao was surprised to see the boy rush back to the chair. 2．What can we know from the passage? A．Zuo Qíao grew up in a migrant family. B．Zuo Qiao pays people to work in the libraries. C．The project got no support from the government. D．Many libraries donated by kind people were in poor condition. 3．What can be the missing sentence for the blank? A．The volunteers work hard every day. B．The libraries have received lots of donations. C．The libraries mean a lot to migrant students. D．Migrant students share their reviews in the libraries. 4．According to the passage, what might Ms. Liao share in her WeChat Moment? A．Her donated books for such a big and modern library. B．Her difficulty in organizing visiting hours for different grades. C．Her happiness to help a second grader read Journey to the West. D．Her experience as a librarian for helping children of migrant workers. Passage 3 (24-25八年级下·江苏盐城·期末)Grade 8 students at Sunshine Middle School know that some people in Africa still don’t have enough clean water. So last month, they took part in a meaningful activity—helping build clean water wells (井) in Africa. The activity started in 2018 and has lasted for seven years. Each year, students offer a helping hand by raising money. This year, they plan to raise about ¥ 10,000 to build the seventh well. As part of the activity, students also went on a “water walk” on May 21. To experience how millions of people in Africa get their water every day, they carried buckets (桶) of water from Moonlight River to school. They had to walk about 6 kilometers. The heavy buckets made them truly feel how difficult it is to get clean water in poor areas. One water well can provide clean and safe drinking water for over 500 people in Africa. A Grade 8 teacher also took part in the walk. He said, “I always tell my students that this is the most meaningful teaching and learning I have ever been a part of.” This activity not only teaches students to care for others but also sends hope to people far away through action. 1．How did the Grade 8 students help people in Africa? A．By having a running competition. B．By swimming in the river. C．By raising money to build water wells. D．By saving clean drinking water. 2．Why did the students take part in the “water walk”? A．To see how hard getting clean water could be. B．To collect money for the disabled. C．To know how far they had to walk to school.

Passage 3 (24-25八年级下·江苏扬州宝应县·期末)My friend Julie and I are crazy about creating (创建) a beautiful green town. Gardening Course Every September, our city has a special festival. Crowds of happy people go to the park. That’s because the gardening competition takes place there. For Julie and me, it was a pity that we couldn’t take part in the gardening competition, for that was also the first day of our high school. We were busy choosing courses. We wanted to learn all about plants, gardening and farming. We thought it would help us succeed as gardeners. Project presentation After a year’s study, I decided to give a talk to my class about my project—the green farm. “Good morning!” I said, “During my studies, I’ve learned a lot about city farming. Now, I want to do something with what I’ve learned.” I showed them a small plastic model. “This is the high street of our town. This is an old, nine-floor car park. No one has used it for the last two years and it’s now for sale.” “I’ve designed a city farm using the car park building. There will be eight floors to farm fruit and vegetables. This design can help us collect rainwater to wet the soil. And we can also use energy from the sun to power the special growing lights.” “I will hire (租) the space out to local people and they will sell everything good enough for the environment in local shops. Also, the ninth floor will be for those who want to grow their own plants.” My audience looked interested and my project got the highest marks in my class. Later, Julie helped me search the town for the perfect place for gardening—somewhere that was not the best neighbourhood, but a poor one. One where the road was full of holes and the pavement (人行道) was all broken came into our eyes. At last, we made it. In the neighbourhood, we posted letters through people’s doors with gardening instructions. More and more people cared about that and began to plant vegetable gardens. Then in the same neighbourhood, we put grass over those broken old pavements for the kids to play on. Finally, we put up a sign that said, “Have fun here.” When we finished, we were both covered in soil and completely tired. But Julie put an arm around my shoulders and smiled. “Not bad!” she said. “We can do more to make our town greener!” 1．The writer mentioned (提及) the gardening competition to ________.

When a radio, an iron, or a table lamp broke, it became a trove (宝藏). Any chance our children got, they would take apart (拆开) each broken appliance (电器) to see the inside. I can’t say this activity is the only reason for their choosing technical (技术的) jobs but I’m sure it has something to do with that. It all started when our clock radio stopped working after years of service. Some of you might remember the type: the plastic body with bright red numbers showing the time. On a whim, I didn’t throw it away but placed it on the floor and gave my kids some tools. “Have a try. Take it apart.” Our 8-year-old daughter was excited. With a cheer, she started working on it right away. Her younger brother joined soon. Once they opened the radio, the excitement only grew. “Look at all these wires” “Is this what lights up the numbers?” There were a lot of smiles and giggles. Soon, it became a tradition. Any time an appliance broke, it didn’t go to the trash. They went to the “project pile” in the garage. When we had time, we broke them down together. I enjoyed showing the kids how to use various tools to do the work. One of my favorite moments came when the mother of our boy’s friend called my wife. She asked why her son suddenly wanted to take apart their perfectly good coffee maker. We laughed. Of course, I was always there with the kids, watching carefully to keep things safe. I kept the kids away from sharp parts and anything possibly dangerous. But they still had freedom to explore, break, cut, and go at their own pace (节奏). Through these fun times, our kids learned to be curious while also understanding something about patience and attention to details. As for my wife and me, we’ve learned to relax, simply watch, and realize that we didn’t have to guide their every step. 1．Why didn’t the author and his wife get rid of broken appliances? A．Because they could make new ones with broken appliances. B．Because their children could find valuable parts in them. C．Because their children loved to see what was inside. D．Because they sold broken appliances for money. 2．What does the expression “on a whim” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．without worry B．with a sudden idea C．in a good mood D．according to a plan 3．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the tradition? A．The daughter was more excited about it than the son. B．It started because of a recently bought clock radio. C．The author and his wife didn’t really enjoy it. D．It allowed the family to spend time together. 4．Why does the author mention the phone call from the friend’s mother? A．To prove children loved to take apart things. B．To explain why he decided to stop the tradition. C．To show the idea was spread and made other kids curious. D．To prove other parents were against the author’s parenting style. 5．Which of the following best summarizes the idea of this passage? A．Letting children explore on their own can benefit them a lot. B．A family tradition can help children to choose future jobs. C．Children should be allowed to reuse broken machines. D．It is a pity to throw away broken home appliances. Passage 2 (24-25八年级下·江苏无锡江阴·期末)Mei stood outside her grandpa’s room. Her mother, Lina, had always told her not to go inside because it was “too dusty.” But today, while Lina was at work, Mei decided to open the door. Inside, she saw a wooden box with “China 1987” written on it. Mei opened it and found an old Leica camera. It was dusty but looked like it could still work. Mei’s hands shook as she held it. She remembered seeing this camera in old photos—her grandfather had been a famous photographer (摄影师) in Beijing before moving to Canada. Suddenly, she heard a voice. “Mei! What are you doing?” Mei turned and dropped the camera. Lina stood in the doorway, her face pale. She held the door so hard that her fingers turned white. “Mom, I…” Mei tried to explain, but the words stuck in her throat. “Why did you hide this? Grandpa was a photographer You always said he sold electronics.” Lina’s voice turned cold. “He left our family for his art. Your grandma worked two jobs while he took photos of storms. Photography isn’t a real job.” She quickly put the camera back and closed the box. “You should try your best to become a doctor, not wasting time on hobbies.” Mei felt tears in her eyes. “But Dad supports my photography He says…” “Your father is optimistic. He dreams too much.” Lina stopped. She walked out, leaving Mei alone. That night, Mei couldn’t sleep. She remembered her grandpa’s words: “Find the light in the dark, mei mei.” At 2 a.m., she quietly went to the living room. The TV was on, and Lina was asleep on the sofa with a medical book on her leg. Mei took the camera, pointed it at Lina, and pressed the button. The flash woke Lina up. “Mei? What…” Lina looked at the camera, then softened. Mei handed her the photo. It showed Lina with messy hair, but her face looked peaceful in the dark light. “You look happy here,” Mei said. “Not like working at the hospital.” She knelt beside Lina. “Mom, I’ll study hard. But can I also learn photography? Grandpa’s camera…it connects us. Let me show you my world through it.” Lina was silent for a long time. Then she reached into her pocket and pulled out an old photo—young Lina, smiling behind the Leica, her father’s arm around her. “Okay,” she whispered. 1．What does the underlined word “optimistic” mean? A．cheerful B．hopeful C．careless D．worried 2．What can we infer from the passage? A．Mei wanted to be a photographer like her grandfather. B．Mei’s grandma didn’t think photography was a real job.

I...I...I wish those sausages where hanging (悬挂) on the end of your silly (傻的) nose!” Just then the sausages stuck to (粘到) Andy’s nose. He looked down at them and cried out with tears.

Oh, how could you!” But the sausages were still there. “I’m so sorry, Andy.” “No, no. It wasn’t your mistake, dear.

There were too many of the sheriff’s men for Robin and the outlaws to beat. In the end, the sheriff’s men captured Robin and took him to prison (监狱) in Nottingham. They tied him with rope and put him in a small room in the prison. The room was at the top of a tall tower. During the night, Robin was able to untie the rope. There was a small window in the tower. Robin tied one end of the rope to a ring in the wall of the room. He tied the other end to himself. Then he climbed out through the window. The room was a long way from the ground. Slowly, Robin climbed down the rope. He was halfway down when the rope broke. Robin fell to the ground. He lay there for a long time. His leg hurt badly. Before morning, Robin was able to stand up. Then he limped away from the tower. That evening, he came to a small fishing village. The sheriff’s men were not far behind him. He knocked on the door of a small cottage. An old woman opened the door. “Robbers are after me. They will kill me if they catch me. Let me hide and rest here.” The old woman looked at Robin. “He has a kind face,” she thought. “And he is hurt.” “You may stay here for a few days,” She said. Robin stayed with the old woman for many days. Slowly, he got a little better, and he was able to walk again. “How can I pay you?” he said to the old woman. “I have no money.” “I own a fishing boat,” the old woman said. “You can work with the fishermen.

On the hillside were many flowers, trees and rocks. Suddenly, they heard a noise. It was clear and slowly got louder “Look at the tree over there!” cried Peter. The girls looked and saw a tree moving slowly down towards the railway line! “It’s magic!” said Phyllis. “I knew the railway was magic. Look, some other trees are moving, too.” They watched as the trees moved on and on, grass and stones moving with them. Then a big rock began to move as well. Soon, everything crashed down onto the railway line below. “It’s across the line!” said Phyllis, feeling a little frightened now. “Yes,” said Peter, “And the 11.29 hasn’t gone by yet. We must let them know at the station, or there will be an awful accident”. “There isn’t time,” said Bobbie. “It’s past eleven now.” They thought for a moment. “We need something red. Then we could go down on the line and wave it,” said Peter. “Everyone knows that red means danger, and the train would stop.” “Our petticoats!” said Phyllis. “They’re red. Let’s take them off.” The girls did this. “We’ll need some sticks as well,” said Peter, taking a knife from his pocket. “Yes, cut them!” said Bobbie. “If we can’t stop the train, there will be a real accident and people will be killed.” They cut the petticoats into six pieces and put them onto sticks. Now they had six red flags. They placed two flags into stone heaps on the line, then Bobbie and Phyllis each took one, and Peter took the other two. They stood ready for the train. It seemed a long time before they heard the train. “Wave your flags!” ordered Peter. “But don’t stand on the line, Bobbie.” The train came very, very fast. The two flags fell, but Bobbie ran across and picked up one of them. “The train’s not going to stop! They won’t see us. It’s no good!” Bobbie shouted. Then she ran onto the line, waving her two flags. “Get back, Bobbie!” shouted Peter. But Bobbie didn’t move from the line. She waved and waved her flags, shouting “Stop, stop!” It did stop... but only twenty metres from Bobbie. —Adapted from The Railway Children 1．What does the underlined “the 11.29” refer to?

But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid. “Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the beach in a boat!” I jumped up and ran with him down to the beach. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here? English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盗)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.” There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with a rope. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy. Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English. “Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.” The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised. Perhaps they thought I was a wild man, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard (胡须). Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.” “Do these mutineers (叛军) have guns?” “Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.” “All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.” Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan. —Taken from Robinson Crusoe 1．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island?

I went there because hikes, art and fields of corn sounded fun to me. When I set out in August, I hugged my parents goodbye. “See you in December!” I said. My parents nodded. They were worried—I could tell. It was because they knew me so well. They knew that I had trouble reaching out. They knew that I was shy and I made friends slowly. My dad looked worriedly at me and my mom’s voice shook as she said, “You’re going to be just fine, baby girl.” The first two weeks was difficult. I made half-hearted (不热心的) small talk at meals, and I cried in the shower. For me, and I couldn’t go back. One day during the third week, I spent two hours collecting corn with one of my classmates. My feelings matched the darkening sky. I wanted to be alone. After a while, she asked, “How many brothers or sisters do you have? ” Finally, my classmate said the three magic words in the English language: I LOVE READING. Soon I found myself talking about books I enjoyed reading. I started to relax. A few bricks fell down from my wall of shyness. A few more fell. I started to reach out. The bricks fell and fell and fell. By the end of the program, I was totally different. I ran through the dining hall. I jumped on the chairs, I sang.

She forgot her money at home. Embarrassed, she turned to leave. “Wait, young lady!” A gentle voice called out.

Thinking that one day his children would also admire (仰慕) his picture, he really wanted his picture to be painted well. But he wasn’t sure what his painting would be like because of his leg and eye. So he invited a group of famous painters to the palace, offering a lot of money to the artist who could create a beautiful picture of him. All the painters began to wonder how to paint the king.

During the day, he sleeps in Aunt Elizabeth’s office, and at night he flies around the museum. But one night, something strange happens. At midnight, Dacty sees lights moving inside the museum. He flies closer to see what is happening. There are two men inside the museum. They are wearing masks and they are trying to open a box. Inside the box, there is an old picture. Suddenly, one man looks up and sees Dacty. He is very scared. “Look, Bert,” he says to the other man. “There is a huge bird up there.” The other man looks up, but Dacty doesn’t move. “Shut up, Eric. Don’t be silly. It’s only a statue (雕像),” the man says. “Come on. I’ll open the box. You look for the gold medal.” While Bert tries to open the box, Dacty flies down and catches Eric.

He had gone to bed at the same time every night for as long as he could remember. He was tired of going to bed when his parents told him to. So one night, when fall seemed over, but it wasn’t yet winter, he decided he would stay up. What Dennis didn’t realize is that staying awake at night is hard when your body needs to sleep. He tried everything he could think of to stop himself from falling asleep. He tried counting wolves (if counting sheep makes you sleepy, then counting wolves must surely do the opposite), but unluckily it made him even more tired. He started to think that it was the counting, and not the choice of animal, that made people sleepy. Dennis was just about ready to give up when he heard a squeak (尖叫声) from his hamster (仓鼠) Charlie. He went over to Charlie’s cage, but it was empty. Dennis followed the sounds of squeaking until he found Charlie on the floor, looking behind the door. Dennis noticed that something back there was throwing things at Charlie! Balls, balls of paper, and even some stones were flying in Charlie’s direction, as he squeaked. “What’s there, Charlie?” Dennis asked as he picked up the hamster and walked towards the door. What he saw made him wonder if he had actually fallen asleep and not realized it. “It’s a…it’s a rabbit,” he said. No bigger than Charlie (and no smaller), the rabbit wore a yellow shirt, a tiny pair of green pants, and a hat. “Why are you throwing things at my hamster, rabbit?” asked Dennis. “Why do you keep a vicious (凶猛的) hamster as a pet, human?” asked the rabbit. “Charlie is not vicious. More importantly, why are you in my room, rabbit?” asked Dennis. “That is an interesting question, human.” “My name is not ‘human’, it’s Dennis,” Dennis said angrily. “I already know your name. And rabbits have names, too.” Dennis didn’t say anything for a moment, and neither did the rabbit. It was an awkward (尴尬的) silence for everyone except Charlie who, as usual, had fallen asleep shortly after Dennis picked him up. “Well, what is your name then?” asked Dennis. 1．When did the story take place? A．One night in late autumn. B．One late night in summer. C．One afternoon in early winter. D．One early morning in late winter. 2．Why does the writer use the “…” in the sentence “It’s a…it’s a rabbit”? A．To show his certainty of what he sees. B．To express Dennis’ surprise at the rabbit. C．To hide his limited knowledge in animals. D．To show Dennis’ worry about his hamster. 3．Which is the right order of the following events? a. The rabbit threw balls of paper at Charlie. b. Dennis tried to count wolves to stay awake. c.

He made his way to the office, wondering why. He was a quite good student, so it wasn’t his grades. Though, to be honest, he’d been making things a little worse, especially that last math test. But this was the first time the baseball team went into the state finals in 11 years and as the star pitcher (明星投手), Danny had helped a lot. Surely there is nothing that can’t be excused. No more thinking, he stepped inside to find Mr. Irving, Coach Geller, and surprisingly, his mother was waiting for him and looked as if she had been crying. Uh, oh. He must really be in trouble. Mr. Irving told the truth that Danny wouldn’t be able to play in the final. Coach Geller had left Danny’s name off the roster (候选名单) by accident, and once handed in, adding more was not allowed. “We’re very sorry, Danny,” said Mr. Irving, “I have been trying to fix it, but so far, no luck.” Danny didn’t know what to say. As the game began, Danny cheered for his team, having a mix of feelings as its score rose and fell. In the bottom of the ninth, Simon hit a winning run, making it certain that their team won. Danny jumped out of his seat and rushed to the field to celebrate with his teammates, giving each other high-fives. That night, as he told the story, his mother listened quietly and said, “You should have played. That was your win, and it was taken from you.” “No,” he said with the biggest smile of his life, “That was my win, and Max’s, and Simon’s too. Don’t you get it, Mom? That’s what it means to be part of a team. I helped get us to the final. And in my own way, I helped win it, too.” His mother looked at him almost like she’d never seen him before.

One night, he quietly went into his grandma’s storeroom. She kept her special things there. He knew she did not like anyone to touch her treasures, especially her cup for skating. Luke walked around on tiptoe (脚尖) and happily felt the treasures one after another. He found the cup wasn’t there. “Where is it?” he thought to himself. He raised his head and found it! It was on the top of a shelf, but he still wanted to feel the cup again. With the help of a ladder (梯子), Luke reached the cup. It was much heavier than it seemed. Luke lifted the cup and tried to get it down. While climbing down, Luke bumped his arm into the ladder. He couldn’t stand straight and fell down hard. The cup dropped from his hands and broke in half. Luke was too nervous to feel the pain. He stood up quickly and felt heartbroken. He picked up the broken pieces with his shaking hands, put them back on the shelf and left the storeroom quickly. Grandma was watching TV in the living room. Luke went into his bedroom quietly so that his grandma wouldn’t notice him. That night was so long. He couldn’t fall asleep till midnight. He woke up and looked at the clock many times. Time seemed to go much slower. Early in the morning, Luke bravely knocked on grandma’s door. He told Grandma about the broken cup. Grandma hugged Luke warmly and said, “That cup was given to me when I was only ten years old. I won the first prize in my skating competition.” Luke followed grandma to the storeroom. “I’m really sorry, grandma.” Luke said sadly. With a smile, grandma took down the broken glass cup and used glue to stick the broken pieces together. The cup was repaired, and it was like magic! She continued, “When I was young, I once messed (弄乱) my uncle’s priceless painting. I was not as brave as you. I didn’t tell the truth at first. I couldn’t stop worrying about it for a week.

It was an island of peace in the city center, a place where I, a high school boy, often went to after school. One sunny afternoon, as I sat on a bench, my attention was drawn to a street performer preparing his act. He was a middle-aged man with a warm smile and eyes that shone with courage mixed with life’s wisdom. Placing his hat on the ground, he began to play the violin, each note filled with sad beauty that seemed to tell tales of his life’s journey. I watched as the crowd passed by, most too preoccupied (心事重重) with their own thoughts to notice the soulful melodies that surrounded them. Suddenly, a coin would clink into the hat, but for the most part, the performer was overlooked. Coming close to him when he took a break, I asked, “Don’t you ever feel disheartened when people don’t stop to listen?” He looked at me with a gentle smile and replied. “Disheartened? Yes; there are moments. But I tell myself that my music is a personal expression, not just a performance for others.” “Is it the money that keeps you going?” I asked, looking at the collection in his hat. He smiled, “The money is not bad, but it’s not the driving force. I play because I’m crazy about music. Every note I make is part of me that I share with the world. Whether anyone listens or not, I stay true to my love for the art.” His words struck a chord (和音) within me. Here was a person who was indifference (冷漠) of the world, but hold on to his pursuit (追求) of happiness. It was a powerful lesson in endurance (忍耐力) and self-worth. As the sun set, painting the sky orange and pink, he continued his playing. This time, I listened with new ears. The music was no longer just a melody; it was the strength and spirit of humanity. When it was finally time for me to head home, I placed a coin in his hat, not only as an act of charity, but as a respect for a man who had taught me a valuable life lesson: to follow one’s passion bravely even without an audience. 1．What did the park mean to the writer in the story? A．It was where he enjoyed music. B．It was where he relaxed after school. C．It was where he met the street performer.

Liu Lijie, halfway through a 13-hour workday, usually rides to a restaurant in Beijing for his favorite choice—mutton noodle soup, for 12 yuan, 6 yuan cheaper than the regular price. The reduced-price meals, known as aixincan or loving meals, are available at some restaurants in large cities, home to large populations of migrant workers (农民工) who come looking for jobs. “There is a lot of pressure in life since I came to Beijing to work, so eating aixincan is both cheap and convenient,” says 40-year-old Liu, who arrived in Beijing two years ago from Shanxi province. In order to get back earlier to make money, he digs into his meal hurriedly at the Yushiji Restaurant. Luo Shuai, another delivery driver, learned of Yushiji’s aixincan through his workmates and has since become a daily customer at the restaurant, which serves (服务，招待) food from his native (本地的) Henan province. “It makes me think of my hometown,” says 27-year-old Luo, who moved to Beijing at the end of last year. Feng Yong, the 43-year-old manager of a meat pie restaurant, spends much of his day making pies. He says the restaurant began serving aixincan to help people in need and inspire others to do the same. As a Shandong province native who moved to Beijing more than 20 years ago, Feng says he has a deep understanding of being an outsider working in a new city. The key, he says, is to avoid any embarrassment (尴尬) for customers who are in need. The staff do what they can to offer help and don’t ask any private things of the customers. “We don’t refuse them anything, just as long as they’re full,” Feng says. 1．Why does Liu Lijie go to the restaurant in Beijing after the lunchtime rush? A．To have a reduced-price meal. B．To get back to make money. C．To deliver food for the restaurant. D．To sell mutton noodle soup. 2．What makes Luo Shuai homesick? A．The help from his workmates.

I found it!” a second grader shouted excitedly as he rushed to Ms. Liao, the librarian. “This is exactly what I’ve been looking for — a copy of Journey to the West with pictures of Guanyin in it.” Liao checked the student’s library card. “Have a good read, my dear,” she said. Seeing the boy rush back to a plastic chair in the corner of the room, holding the book like a box of treasure, Liao let out a broad smile. “Children need a stable (稳定的) environment to develop reading skills,” she said. The library, covering less than 20 square meters and holding about 5,000 books, provides such an environment for the children of migrant workers (农民工) in Tongzhou, Beijing. As a volunteer librarian, Liao helps children borrow and return books and organize the shelves. She also enjoys chatting with the students about their choices. The library is part of the Weilan Library project, which works to set up libraries for migrant children. By late October, the project had 82 branches in different cities, helping more than 80,000young readers. Zuo Qiao, director of the Weilan Library project, works hard on it. “Three rules are important in any one of our libraries: a large number of high-quality children’s books; consistent (连贯的) opening hours; and helping kids make their own choice of books to borrow and read,” he said. About five years ago, Zuo found that many schools for migrant children had a dust-covered room with books, shelves, desks and chairs all over the place. The room was once a library donated by a charity group, he added. “Many good-hearted people donated books and set up libraries at these schools, but they often ended up being forgotten and left in darkness in the long run,” he said. He believed that every child should have the right to go to libraries, so he and his friends started the Weilan Library project. On the window of a library, there is a postcard written by a third grader. It reads, “Your library is small, for us it is a grand hall of knowledge and teaches us so much.” 1．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 mean? A．Ms. Liao had a good time chatting with the boy. B．Ms. Liao was happy to see the boy enjoy reading. C．Ms. Liao was glad to get a box of treasure from the boy. D．Ms. Liao was surprised to see the boy rush back to the chair. 2．What can we know from the passage? A．Zuo Qíao grew up in a migrant family. B．Zuo Qiao pays people to work in the libraries. C．The project got no support from the government. D．Many libraries donated by kind people were in poor condition. 3．What can be the missing sentence for the blank? A．The volunteers work hard every day. B．The libraries have received lots of donations. C．The libraries mean a lot to migrant students. D．Migrant students share their reviews in the libraries. 4．According to the passage, what might Ms. Liao share in her WeChat Moment? A．Her donated books for such a big and modern library. B．Her difficulty in organizing visiting hours for different grades. C．Her happiness to help a second grader read Journey to the West. D．Her experience as a librarian for helping children of migrant workers. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文介绍了“蔚蓝图书馆”项目的背景、目标和意义。 1．细节理解题。根据“Seeing the boy rush back to a plastic chair in the corner of the room, holding the book like a box of treasure, Liao let out a broad smile.”可知，表明她因孩子热爱阅读而高兴。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“Zuo found that many schools for migrant children had a dust-covered room with books, shelves, desks and chairs all over the place.

They divide into groups: some carry trash bins, others hold signs to remind people to keep the environment clean. Last month, they organized a “Recycling Workshop” for primary school students, teaching them how to classify paper, glass, and plastic. So the students can separate waste into different groups. “A little boy told me he started recycling at home after the workshop,” Lisa smiles. “That’s why we do this.” The project hasn’t been easy. Once, a man threw a cigarette butt (烟蒂) on the ground and said, “Why should I care?” Lisa politely picked it up and replied, “Because this is our home.” Since then, the man has become a volunteer in their team.

Gardening Course Every September, our city has a special festival. Crowds of happy people go to the park. That’s because the gardening competition takes place there. For Julie and me, it was a pity that we couldn’t take part in the gardening competition, for that was also the first day of our high school. We were busy choosing courses. We wanted to learn all about plants, gardening and farming. We thought it would help us succeed as gardeners. Project presentation After a year’s study, I decided to give a talk to my class about my project—the green farm. “Good morning!” I said, “During my studies, I’ve learned a lot about city farming. Now, I want to do something with what I’ve learned.” I showed them a small plastic model. “This is the high street of our town. This is an old, nine-floor car park. No one has used it for the last two years and it’s now for sale.” “I’ve designed a city farm using the car park building. There will be eight floors to farm fruit and vegetables. This design can help us collect rainwater to wet the soil. And we can also use energy from the sun to power the special growing lights.” “I will hire (租) the space out to local people and they will sell everything good enough for the environment in local shops. Also, the ninth floor will be for those who want to grow their own plants.” My audience looked interested and my project got the highest marks in my class. Later, Julie helped me search the town for the perfect place for gardening—somewhere that was not the best neighbourhood, but a poor one. One where the road was full of holes and the pavement (人行道) was all broken came into our eyes. At last, we made it. In the neighbourhood, we posted letters through people’s doors with gardening instructions. More and more people cared about that and began to plant vegetable gardens. Then in the same neighbourhood, we put grass over those broken old pavements for the kids to play on. Finally, we put up a sign that said, “Have fun here.” When we finished, we were both covered in soil and completely tired. But Julie put an arm around my shoulders and smiled. “Not bad!” she said. “We can do more to make our town greener!” 1．The writer mentioned (提及) the gardening competition to ________.

When a radio, an iron, or a table lamp broke, it became a trove (宝藏). Any chance our children got, they would take apart (拆开) each broken appliance (电器) to see the inside. I can’t say this activity is the only reason for their choosing technical (技术的) jobs but I’m sure it has something to do with that. It all started when our clock radio stopped working after years of service. Some of you might remember the type: the plastic body with bright red numbers showing the time. On a whim, I didn’t throw it away but placed it on the floor and gave my kids some tools. “Have a try. Take it apart.” Our 8-year-old daughter was excited. With a cheer, she started working on it right away. Her younger brother joined soon. Once they opened the radio, the excitement only grew. “Look at all these wires” “Is this what lights up the numbers?” There were a lot of smiles and giggles. Soon, it became a tradition. Any time an appliance broke, it didn’t go to the trash. They went to the “project pile” in the garage. When we had time, we broke them down together. I enjoyed showing the kids how to use various tools to do the work. One of my favorite moments came when the mother of our boy’s friend called my wife. She asked why her son suddenly wanted to take apart their perfectly good coffee maker. We laughed. Of course, I was always there with the kids, watching carefully to keep things safe. I kept the kids away from sharp parts and anything possibly dangerous. But they still had freedom to explore, break, cut, and go at their own pace (节奏). Through these fun times, our kids learned to be curious while also understanding something about patience and attention to details. As for my wife and me, we’ve learned to relax, simply watch, and realize that we didn’t have to guide their every step. 1．Why didn’t the author and his wife get rid of broken appliances? A．Because they could make new ones with broken appliances. B．Because their children could find valuable parts in them. C．Because their children loved to see what was inside. D．Because they sold broken appliances for money. 2．What does the expression “on a whim” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．without worry B．with a sudden idea C．in a good mood D．according to a plan 3．Which of the following statements is TRUE about the tradition? A．The daughter was more excited about it than the son. B．It started because of a recently bought clock radio. C．The author and his wife didn’t really enjoy it. D．It allowed the family to spend time together. 4．Why does the author mention the phone call from the friend’s mother? A．To prove children loved to take apart things. B．To explain why he decided to stop the tradition. C．To show the idea was spread and made other kids curious. D．To prove other parents were against the author’s parenting style. 5．Which of the following best summarizes the idea of this passage? A．Letting children explore on their own can benefit them a lot. B．A family tradition can help children to choose future jobs. C．Children should be allowed to reuse broken machines. D．It is a pity to throw away broken home appliances. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者和妻子保留旧电器并让孩子拆解探索的经历，强调了让孩子自主探索的益处。文章最后提到孩子们通过这种活动培养了好奇心、耐心和注重细节的能力，同时父母也学会了放松和不过多干预。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“Any chance our children got, they would take apart (拆开) each broken appliance (电器) to see the inside.”可知，作者和妻子不扔掉坏掉的电器是因为孩子们喜欢拆开看里面的构造。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据第二段“On a whim, I didn’t throw it away but placed it on the floor and gave my kids some tools.”可知，作者是突然想到不扔掉坏掉的收音机，而是给孩子们工具拆开它。因此“on a whim”意为“突然的想法”。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段“When we had time, we broke them down together.”可知，这个传统让全家人有时间一起拆解电器，共度时光。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据第三段“She asked why her son suddenly wanted to take apart their perfectly good coffee maker.”可知，朋友的儿子受作者家孩子的影响，也开始对拆解电器感兴趣。这说明作者家的做法传播开来，引起了其他孩子的好奇心。故选C。 5．主旨大意题。 通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了作者让孩子们自由探索拆解坏掉的电器，孩子们从中受益良多。因此文章的主旨是让孩子们自由探索对他们有很大好处。故选A。 Passage 2 (24-25八年级下·江苏无锡江阴·期末)Mei stood outside her grandpa’s room.

Inside, she saw a wooden box with “China 1987” written on it. Mei opened it and found an old Leica camera. It was dusty but looked like it could still work. Mei’s hands shook as she held it. She remembered seeing this camera in old photos—her grandfather had been a famous photographer (摄影师) in Beijing before moving to Canada. Suddenly, she heard a voice. “Mei! What are you doing?” Mei turned and dropped the camera. Lina stood in the doorway, her face pale. She held the door so hard that her fingers turned white. “Mom, I…” Mei tried to explain, but the words stuck in her throat. “Why did you hide this?

He dreams too much.” Lina stopped. She walked out, leaving Mei alone. That night, Mei couldn’t sleep. She remembered her grandpa’s words: “Find the light in the dark, mei mei.” At 2 a.m., she quietly went to the living room. The TV was on, and Lina was asleep on the sofa with a medical book on her leg. Mei took the camera, pointed it at Lina, and pressed the button. The flash woke Lina up. “Mei? What…” Lina looked at the camera, then softened. Mei handed her the photo. It showed Lina with messy hair, but her face looked peaceful in the dark light. “You look happy here,” Mei said. “Not like working at the hospital.” She knelt beside Lina. “Mom, I’ll study hard. But can I also learn photography? Grandpa’s camera…it connects us. Let me show you my world through it.” Lina was silent for a long time.

Many men were killed or badly hurt on both sides. There were too many of the sheriff’s men for Robin and the outlaws to beat. In the end, the sheriff’s men captured Robin and took him to prison (监狱) in Nottingham. They tied him with rope and put him in a small room in the prison. The room was at the top of a tall tower. During the night, Robin was able to untie the rope. There was a small window in the tower. Robin tied one end of the rope to a ring in the wall of the room. He tied the other end to himself. Then he climbed out through the window. The room was a long way from the ground. Slowly, Robin climbed down the rope. He was halfway down when the rope broke. Robin fell to the ground. He lay there for a long time. His leg hurt badly. Before morning, Robin was able to stand up. Then he limped away from the tower. That evening, he came to a small fishing village. The sheriff’s men were not far behind him. He knocked on the door of a small cottage. An old woman opened the door. “Robbers are after me. They will kill me if they catch me. Let me hide and rest here.” The old woman looked at Robin. “He has a kind face,” she thought. “And he is hurt.” “You may stay here for a few days,” She said. Robin stayed with the old woman for many days. Slowly, he got a little better, and he was able to walk again. “How can I pay you?” he said to the old woman. “I have no money.” “I own a fishing boat,” the old woman said. “You can work with the fishermen. They go to the sea tonight.” Robin joined the fishermen on the boat. He worked as hard as he could, but he did not know how to fish.

On the hillside were many flowers, trees and rocks. Suddenly, they heard a noise. It was clear and slowly got louder “Look at the tree over there!” cried Peter. The girls looked and saw a tree moving slowly down towards the railway line! “It’s magic!” said Phyllis. “I knew the railway was magic. Look, some other trees are moving, too.” They watched as the trees moved on and on, grass and stones moving with them. Then a big rock began to move as well. Soon, everything crashed down onto the railway line below. “It’s across the line!” said Phyllis, feeling a little frightened now. “Yes,” said Peter, “And the 11.29 hasn’t gone by yet. We must let them know at the station, or there will be an awful accident”. “There isn’t time,” said Bobbie. “It’s past eleven now.” They thought for a moment. “We need something red. Then we could go down on the line and wave it,” said Peter. “Everyone knows that red means danger, and the train would stop.” “Our petticoats!” said Phyllis. “They’re red. Let’s take them off.” The girls did this. “We’ll need some sticks as well,” said Peter, taking a knife from his pocket. “Yes, cut them!” said Bobbie. “If we can’t stop the train, there will be a real accident and people will be killed.” They cut the petticoats into six pieces and put them onto sticks. Now they had six red flags. They placed two flags into stone heaps on the line, then Bobbie and Phyllis each took one, and Peter took the other two. They stood ready for the train. It seemed a long time before they heard the train. “Wave your flags!” ordered Peter. “But don’t stand on the line, Bobbie.” The train came very, very fast. The two flags fell, but Bobbie ran across and picked up one of them. “The train’s not going to stop! They won’t see us. It’s no good!” Bobbie shouted. Then she ran onto the line, waving her two flags. “Get back, Bobbie!” shouted Peter. But Bobbie didn’t move from the line. She waved and waved her flags, shouting “Stop, stop!” It did stop... but only twenty metres from Bobbie. —Adapted from The Railway Children 1．What does the underlined “the 11.29” refer to?

One evening, Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid. “Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the beach in a boat!” I jumped up and ran with him down to the beach. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here? English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盗)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.” There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with a rope. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy. Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English. “Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.” The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised. Perhaps they thought I was a wild man, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard (胡须). Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.” “Do these mutineers (叛军) have guns?” “Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.” “All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.” Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan. —Taken from Robinson Crusoe 1．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island?

My dad looked worriedly at me and my mom’s voice shook as she said, “You’re going to be just fine, baby girl.” The first two weeks was difficult. I made half-hearted (不热心的) small talk at meals, and I cried in the shower. For me, and I couldn’t go back. One day during the third week, I spent two hours collecting corn with one of my classmates. My feelings matched the darkening sky. I wanted to be alone. After a while, she asked, “How many brothers or sisters do you have? ” Finally, my classmate said the three magic words in the English language: I LOVE READING.

The bricks fell and fell and fell. By the end of the program, I was totally different. I ran through the dining hall. I jumped on the chairs, I sang.

So they started making excuses and refused politely.”可知，其他画家拒绝为国王作画的原因是担心画不好会受到惩罚。故选B。 3．观点态度题。根据第一段“Once upon a time, there was a king who lost his leg and eye during a war.”和最后一段“In the picture, the king was sitting on a horse, showing the one-leg side holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (箭) with his one eye closed.”可知，国王在战争中失去了一条腿和一只眼睛，在这幅画中，国王骑在马上，一条腿的一边拿着弓，闭着一只眼睛瞄准箭。由此可知，Tom能想出既符合国王身体实际情况又让画面美观的办法，故国王会认为他是聪明的。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据“In the picture, the king was sitting on a horse, showing the one-leg side holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (箭) with his one eye closed.”可知，在这幅画中，国王骑在马上，一条腿的一边拿着弓，闭着一只眼睛瞄准箭。故选A。 Passage 2 (24-25八年级下·江苏连云港海州区·期末)Six months pass and Dacty, the pterodactyl, is very big now.

He flies closer to see what is happening. There are two men inside the museum. They are wearing masks and they are trying to open a box. Inside the box, there is an old picture. Suddenly, one man looks up and sees Dacty. He is very scared. “Look, Bert,” he says to the other man. “There is a huge bird up there.” The other man looks up, but Dacty doesn’t move. “Shut up, Eric. Don’t be silly. It’s only a statue (雕像),” the man says. “Come on. I’ll open the box. You look for the gold medal.” While Bert tries to open the box, Dacty flies down and catches Eric. The thief is so scared that he can’t say a thing. Dacty flies up and leaves him on top of a statue. Bert is so busy opening the box that he doesn’t see what is happening. “Hey, where’s the knife?” he says, but there is no answer. “Eric? Where are you, Eric?” he asks. Then he looks up and sees his friend high above on the statue. Just then, Dacty flies down again and catches the second thief. He carries him up to the statue. The two men are very afraid. They start shouting, but there is nobody there to hear them. In the morning, when Aunt Elizabeth comes into the museum, she hears the men shouting. Then she sees the broken box. “Help! Help! There’s a monster here,” the men shout while Dacty flies down to her. “First things first,” Aunt Elizabeth says.

He had gone to bed at the same time every night for as long as he could remember. He was tired of going to bed when his parents told him to. So one night, when fall seemed over, but it wasn’t yet winter, he decided he would stay up. What Dennis didn’t realize is that staying awake at night is hard when your body needs to sleep. He tried everything he could think of to stop himself from falling asleep. He tried counting wolves (if counting sheep makes you sleepy, then counting wolves must surely do the opposite), but unluckily it made him even more tired. He started to think that it was the counting, and not the choice of animal, that made people sleepy. Dennis was just about ready to give up when he heard a squeak (尖叫声) from his hamster (仓鼠) Charlie. He went over to Charlie’s cage, but it was empty. Dennis followed the sounds of squeaking until he found Charlie on the floor, looking behind the door. Dennis noticed that something back there was throwing things at Charlie! Balls, balls of paper, and even some stones were flying in Charlie’s direction, as he squeaked. “What’s there, Charlie?” Dennis asked as he picked up the hamster and walked towards the door. What he saw made him wonder if he had actually fallen asleep and not realized it. “It’s a…it’s a rabbit,” he said. No bigger than Charlie (and no smaller), the rabbit wore a yellow shirt, a tiny pair of green pants, and a hat. “Why are you throwing things at my hamster, rabbit?” asked Dennis. “Why do you keep a vicious (凶猛的) hamster as a pet, human?” asked the rabbit. “Charlie is not vicious. More importantly, why are you in my room, rabbit?” asked Dennis. “That is an interesting question, human.” “My name is not ‘human’, it’s Dennis,” Dennis said angrily. “I already know your name. And rabbits have names, too.” Dennis didn’t say anything for a moment, and neither did the rabbit. It was an awkward (尴尬的) silence for everyone except Charlie who, as usual, had fallen asleep shortly after Dennis picked him up. “Well, what is your name then?” asked Dennis. 1．When did the story take place? A．One night in late autumn. B．One late night in summer. C．One afternoon in early winter. D．One early morning in late winter. 2．Why does the writer use the “…” in the sentence “It’s a…it’s a rabbit”? A．To show his certainty of what he sees. B．To express Dennis’ surprise at the rabbit. C．To hide his limited knowledge in animals. D．To show Dennis’ worry about his hamster. 3．Which is the right order of the following events? a. The rabbit threw balls of paper at Charlie. b. Dennis tried to count wolves to stay awake. c. Dennis heard the sounds of Charlie’s squeaking. d. Charlie fell asleep shortly after Dennis picked him up. A．b-a-c-d B．d-a-c-b C．b-c-d-a D．c-a-b-d 4．What is the best title for the story? A．Dennis’ lovely hamster B．Ways to stay up late C．Dennis’ unusual night D．Advice on falling asleep 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文是记叙文，讲述Dennis因厌倦按时睡觉，在秋末冬初的一晚决定熬夜，过程中因仓鼠Charlie的尖叫声发现一只会说话的兔子，由此展开一段奇妙经历，展现了他不同寻常的夜晚。 1．细节理解题。根据“So one night, when fall seemed over, but it wasn’t yet winter, he decided he would stay up”，可知故事发生在秋末冬初的一个晚上（One night in late autumn）。故选A。 2．推理判断题。根据“No bigger than Charlie (and no smaller), the rabbit wore a yellow shirt, a tiny pair of green pants, and a hat.”可知，“It’s a…it’s a rabbit”中省略号体现Dennis看到兔子时的惊讶（To express Dennis’ surprise at the  rabbit）。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“Balls, balls of paper, and even some stones were flying in Charlie’s direction, as he squeaked.”可知，兔子向Charlie扔纸团等在第三段末尾，即a；根据“He tried counting wolves”可知，Dennis尝试数狼保持清醒在第二段，即b；根据“Dennis was just about ready to give up when he heard a squeak (尖叫声) from his hamster (仓鼠) Charlie.”可知，Dennis听到仓鼠Charlie的尖叫声在第三段开头，即c；根据“as usual, had fallen asleep shortly after Dennis picked him up.”可知，Dennis捡起Charlie后它很快入睡在倒数第二段，即d。通读全文后可知，事件顺序为b-a-c-d，故选A。 4．最佳标题题。文章围绕Dennis熬夜当晚遇到的奇妙事（发现会说话的兔子）展开，“Dennis不同寻常的夜晚”最适合做标题。故选C。 主题03 人与自我——哲理感悟 Passage 1 (24-25八年级下·江苏泰州靖江·期末)Danny was just putting his cleats (训练鞋) into his locker when his teammate, Max, told him that Mr. Irving, the principal (校长) wanted to see him in the office. He made his way to the office, wondering why. He was a quite good student, so it wasn’t his grades. Though, to be honest, he’d been making things a little worse, especially that last math test. But this was the first time the baseball team went into the state finals in 11 years and as the star pitcher (明星投手), Danny had helped a lot. Surely there is nothing that can’t be excused. No more thinking, he stepped inside to find Mr. Irving, Coach Geller, and surprisingly, his mother was waiting for him and looked as if she had been crying. Uh, oh. He must really be in trouble. Mr. Irving told the truth that Danny wouldn’t be able to play in the final. Coach Geller had left Danny’s name off the roster (候选名单) by accident, and once handed in, adding more was not allowed. “We’re very sorry, Danny,” said Mr. Irving, “I have been trying to fix it, but so far, no luck.” Danny didn’t know what to say. As the game began, Danny cheered for his team, having a mix of feelings as its score rose and fell. In the bottom of the ninth, Simon hit a winning run, making it certain that their team won. Danny jumped out of his seat and rushed to the field to celebrate with his teammates, giving each other high-fives. That night, as he told the story, his mother listened quietly and said, “You should have played. That was your win, and it was taken from you.” “No,” he said with the biggest smile of his life, “That was my win, and Max’s, and Simon’s too. Don’t you get it, Mom? That’s what it means to be part of a team. I helped get us to the final. And in my own way, I helped win it, too.” His mother looked at him almost like she’d never seen him before. Then she smiled and hugged him tightly. “You’re right, Danny! I’m so proud of you!” 1．How did Danny feel before stepping into the office? A．Excited to see the principal. B．Worried he was in trouble. C．Nervous about his grades. D．Curious about the reason for the meeting. 2．What news did Danny learn from Mr. Irving? A．His math grades dropped a lot. B．He wasn’t chosen as a star pitcher.

A．⑤①③②④ B．①③⑤②④ C．①③⑤④② D．⑤①③④② 4．How does the writer develop Danny’s character? A．By describing his appearance. B．Through his words and actions. C．By comparing (比较) him with others. D．Through his communication with teachers. 5．What can we learn from Danny’s story? A．It never rains but it pours. B．Two heads are better than one. C．One tree does not make a forest. D．Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了棒球明星投手Danny因教练失误未被列入决赛名单，虽未能上场，但仍为球队加油，最终球队获胜后，他理解了团队的意义并得到母亲认可的故事。 1．细节理解题。 根据“He made his way to the office, wondering why.”可知，Danny在走进办公室前好奇开会的原因。故选D。 2．细节理解题。 根据“Mr. Irving told the truth that Danny wouldn’t be able to play in the final. Coach Geller had left Danny’s name off the roster by accident...”可知，Danny从Irving先生那里得知自己的名字不在决赛名单上。故选C。 3．篇章结构题。根据“Coach Geller had left Danny’s name off the roster by accident, and once handed in, adding more was not allowed.”可知，教练Coach Geller不小心将Danny的名字从候选名单上漏掉，并且名单一旦提交就无法再添加(①)；根据“Mr. Irving said, ‘I have been trying to fix it, but so far, no luck.’”可知，校长Mr. Irving尝试修复错误但失败了(③)；根据“Danny was just putting his cleats into his locker when his teammate, Max, told him that Mr. Irving wanted to see him in the office.”可知，Danny正在整理装备时，队友Max通知他去校长办公室(⑤)；根据“In the bottom of the ninth, Simon hit a winning run... Danny jumped out of his seat and rushed to the field to celebrate with his teammates, giving each other high-fives.”可知，比赛开始后，Danny观看比赛并为球队加油；球队获胜后，他冲上场地与队友庆祝(②)；根据“That night, as he told the story...

He was interested in everything in his grandma’s house. One night, he quietly went into his grandma’s storeroom. She kept her special things there. He knew she did not like anyone to touch her treasures, especially her cup for skating. Luke walked around on tiptoe (脚尖) and happily felt the treasures one after another. He found the cup wasn’t there. “Where is it?” he thought to himself. He raised his head and found it! It was on the top of a shelf, but he still wanted to feel the cup again. With the help of a ladder (梯子), Luke reached the cup. It was much heavier than it seemed. Luke lifted the cup and tried to get it down. While climbing down, Luke bumped his arm into the ladder. He couldn’t stand straight and fell down hard. The cup dropped from his hands and broke in half. Luke was too nervous to feel the pain. He stood up quickly and felt heartbroken. He picked up the broken pieces with his shaking hands, put them back on the shelf and left the storeroom quickly. Grandma was watching TV in the living room. Luke went into his bedroom quietly so that his grandma wouldn’t notice him. That night was so long. He couldn’t fall asleep till midnight. He woke up and looked at the clock many times. Time seemed to go much slower. Early in the morning, Luke bravely knocked on grandma’s door. He told Grandma about the broken cup. Grandma hugged Luke warmly and said, “That cup was given to me when I was only ten years old. I won the first prize in my skating competition.” Luke followed grandma to the storeroom. “I’m really sorry, grandma.” Luke said sadly. With a smile, grandma took down the broken glass cup and used glue to stick the broken pieces together. The cup was repaired, and it was like magic! She continued, “When I was young, I once messed (弄乱) my uncle’s priceless painting. I was not as brave as you. I didn’t tell the truth at first. I couldn’t stop worrying about it for a week.

It was an island of peace in the city center, a place where I, a high school boy, often went to after school. One sunny afternoon, as I sat on a bench, my attention was drawn to a street performer preparing his act. He was a middle-aged man with a warm smile and eyes that shone with courage mixed with life’s wisdom. Placing his hat on the ground, he began to play the violin, each note filled with sad beauty that seemed to tell tales of his life’s journey. I watched as the crowd passed by, most too preoccupied (心事重重) with their own thoughts to notice the soulful melodies that surrounded them. Suddenly, a coin would clink into the hat, but for the most part, the performer was overlooked. Coming close to him when he took a break, I asked, “Don’t you ever feel disheartened when people don’t stop to listen?” He looked at me with a gentle smile and replied. “Disheartened? Yes; there are moments. But I tell myself that my music is a personal expression, not just a performance for others.” “Is it the money that keeps you going?” I asked, looking at the collection in his hat. He smiled, “The money is not bad, but it’s not the driving force. I play because I’m crazy about music. Every note I make is part of me that I share with the world. Whether anyone listens or not, I stay true to my love for the art.” His words struck a chord (和音) within me. Here was a person who was indifference (冷漠) of the world, but hold on to his pursuit (追求) of happiness. It was a powerful lesson in endurance (忍耐力) and self-worth. As the sun set, painting the sky orange and pink, he continued his playing. This time, I listened with new ears. The music was no longer just a melody; it was the strength and spirit of humanity. When it was finally time for me to head home, I placed a coin in his hat, not only as an act of charity, but as a respect for a man who had taught me a valuable life lesson: to follow one’s passion bravely even without an audience. 1．What did the park mean to the writer in the story? A．It was where he enjoyed music. B．It was where he relaxed after school. C．It was where he met the street performer. D．It was where he had to pass on his way home. 2．What can we infer from the fact that most people passed by without noticing the performer’s music? A．People didn’t want to pay a coin. B．The music was not attractive enough. C．People were busy with their own lives. D．The park was too noisy for them to hear the music. 3．What does the word “disheartened” in Paragraph 4 most likely mean? A．Excited about performing. B．Sad and losing confidence. C．Angry at others. D．Tired from playing. 4．What did the boy learn from the street performer? A．People should keep doing what you love even if no one watches. B．Money is necessary for artists to survive. C．Music can express personal stories beautifully. D．Busy city life makes people turn blind to art. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．B 4．A 【导语】本文讲述了街头艺人教会作者要坚守热爱，即使没有观众。 1．细节理解题。根据“It was an island of peace in the city center, a place where I, a high school boy, often went to after school.”可知，公园是作者放学后放松的地方。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“most too preoccupied (心事重重) with their own thoughts to notice the soulful melodies that surrounded them.”可知，大多数人太专注于自己的事，而没有注意到深情的旋律。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据“Don’t you ever feel disheartened when people don’t stop to listen?”可知，此处是问“当人们不停下来听你说话时，你不感到沮丧吗”，因此划线词是“情绪低落、失去信心”。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据“but as a respect for a man who had taught me a valuable life lesson: to follow one’s passion bravely even without an audience.”可知，作者学到了要勇敢追随自己的激情，即使没有观众。故选A。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
