C 【导语】本文讲述Ewan Drum受超级英雄启发，立志帮助无家可归者，他穿着超级英雄服装分发午餐，后来获得捐赠并送往有需要的城市，他还鼓励其他孩子行善。 【详解】1. 句意：我想打扮成超级英雄，帮助无家可归的人。 后文“Wearing his red superhero clothes”明确说明他穿上了红色超级英雄服装，因此前面说的应是“打扮成”超级英雄。应选用dress up，表示“打扮、装扮”。put up表示“张贴、搭建”，get up表示“起床”，look up表示“查阅”，均与穿服装打扮无关。 2. 句意：几个月后，Ewan的家人计划了一天的给予活动。 后文描述他帮助分发70份袋装午餐给饥饿的人，这是一次向他人提供帮助的慈善活动，因此这一天活动的主题应是“给予”。应选用giving，表示“给予”。playing表示“玩耍”，working表示“工作”，relaxing表示“放松”，均不符合帮助无家可归者的语境。 3. 句意：穿着红色超级英雄服装的Ewan高兴地帮助分发70份袋装午餐。 前文提到他想帮助无家可归的人，实现愿望时的心情应是积极愉快的。应选用happily，表示“高兴地”。sadly表示“伤心地”，angrily表示“生气地”，carefully表示“仔细地”，其中sadly和angrily为消极情绪，carefully与情绪无关，均不符合帮助他人时的心情。 4. 句意：那就是超级Ewan是如何诞生的。 前文描述了他通过实际行动帮助他人从而成为“超级Ewan”的过程，此处是对这一诞生方式的总结，表示“以这种方式”。应选用how，表示“如何、怎样”。what表示“什么”，when表示“何时”，why表示“为什么”，what和when与诞生方式无关，why侧重原因而非过程。 5. 句意：Ewan把它们分发给那些有需要的人。 in need是固定短语，意为“在困难中的、有需要的”，常用于描述需要帮助的人群。应选用need，构成those in need。danger表示“危险”，构成in danger意为“处于危险中”；surprise表示“惊讶”，构成in surprise意为“惊讶地”；peace表示“和平”，构成in peace意为“和平地”，均不符合帮助贫困人群的语境。 6. 句意：他们把水带到密歇根州的Flint。 前文提到他们举办了收集活动获得更多水，此处表示将这些水运送到目的地。应选用took，与to构成take...to...，表示“把……带到……”。sold表示“卖”，lent表示“借出”，carried表示“携带”，sold和lent违背慈善捐赠的初衷，carried侧重动作本身而不强调目的地。 7. 句意：我想鼓励其他孩子做他们力所能及的事来帮助人们。 Ewan自己已经在行善，作为榜样，他希望通过自己的行动激励更多孩子参与。应选用encourage，表示“鼓励”。allow表示“允许”，invite表示“邀请”，order表示“命令”，允许和命令语气不当，邀请不如鼓励贴切。 8. 句意：让某人的一天更明亮让我感觉很好。 帮助他人会带来积极的心理感受，且后文“make someone’s day brighter”描述的是积极的结果。应选用good，构成feel good，表示“感觉良好”。funny表示“滑稽的”，mad表示“疯狂的”，afraid表示“害怕的”，均不符合帮助他人后的正面情感体验。 9. 句意：Ewan的故事表明，即使一个小小的善举也能产生巨大的影响。 后文“If everyone does a little”明确提到了“做一点点”，且此处与后文“make a big difference”形成对比。应选用small，表示“小的”，与big形成对比关系。hard表示“困难的”，creative表示“有创意的”，smart表示“聪明的”，均无法与big形成“小vs大”的对比。 10. 句意：如果每个人都做一点，世界将成为一个更好的地方。 前文提到行善能产生巨大影响，因此每个人参与后世界会向积极方向发展。应选用better，表示“更好的”，是good的比较级，泛指各方面向好。quieter表示“更安静的”，cleaner表示“更干净的”，colder表示“更冷的”，均不符合善举带来的整体积极影响。 Passage 8 Aron was a young boy. He was angry at everything around him. To calm Aron down, his mum came home with a canvas (画布) . “When you feel bad about something, 1 it instead of getting angry,” she said. Aron wasn’t very 2 , but he decided to have a try. After painting three pictures, he 3 them to his mum. “What are these paintings about?” she asked. “The first was about some kids showing off their new clothes. The second was about my 4 . He always said I was doing things wrong. And the 5 painting was about a schoolmate who said I should change my ways. They all made me angry.” His mum said, “Aron, you get angry easily, but you never 6 why those things happen.” Then she 7 explained, “Those people did 8 wrong. The kids just showed off but didn’t hurt you. Your teacher scolded (批评) you because you 9 trouble in class. Your schoolmate just wanted to help you. Next time when you’re angry, take a deep breath and walk away for a while. Then 10 and talk to that person. You’ll feel better.” Aron took his mum’s advice. He got angry less often and even started having fun with others. 1. A．paint B．write C．sing D．read 2. A．bored B．excited C．scared D．relaxed 3. A．sold B．lent C．showed D．returned 4.

B 【导语】本文主要讲述男孩Aron易怒，妈妈引导他用画画抒发情绪，并教会他换位思考、理解他人，最终他学会控制情绪的故事。 1. 句意：当你对某事感到糟糕时，画画，而不是生气。 上文妈妈带回画布canvas，后文提到“painting three pictures”。应选用paint，表示“画画”，符合画布、绘画的语境。write“写”、sing“唱歌”、read“阅读”，均与画布无关。 2. 句意：阿伦并不是很兴奋，但他决定试一试。 后半句“but he decided to have a try”，表转折。应选用excited，表示“兴奋的”，指他并不是很兴奋，但还是决定试一试。bored“无聊的”、scared“害怕的”、relaxed“放松的”，转折逻辑不成立。 3. 句意：画完三幅画后，他把它们拿给妈妈看。 后文妈妈问“What are these paintings about?”。应选用showed，固定搭配show sth. to sb.，表示“把某物展示给某人”。sold“卖”、lent“借出”、returned“归还”，与后文提问语境不符。 4. 句意：第二幅画是关于我的老师。他总说我做事不对。 后文“He always said I was doing things wrong.”，后文也出现“teacher scolded you”。应选用teacher，表示“老师”，与后文批评的语境对应。brother“兄弟”、father“父亲”、friend“朋友”，后文未提及。 5. 句意：最后一幅画是关于一个同学，他说我应该改变做事方式。 前文“The first… The second…”，一共三幅画。应选用last，表示“最后的”，指第三幅、最后一幅画。first“第一”、second“第二”、fourth“第四”，数量不符。 6. 句意：阿伦，你很容易生气，但你从不明白这些事为什么发生。 后文妈妈解释每件事发生的原因，此处指他不明白缘由。应选用understand，表示“明白、理解”。guess“猜测”、answer“回答”、forget“忘记”，不合语境。 7. 句意：然后她耐心地解释道。 妈妈在耐心给孩子讲道理。应选用carefully，表示“仔细地、耐心地”。quickly“快速地”、suddenly“突然”、angrily“生气地”，语气不符。 8. 句意：那些人没做错什么。 后文举例人们并无恶意，没做错什么。应选用“nothing”，did nothing wrong表示“没做错事”。something“某事”、everything“一切”、anything“任何事”，语境不符。 9. 句意：你老师批评你，是因为你在课堂上惹了麻烦。 固定搭配cause trouble，表示“惹麻烦”。应选用caused，cause trouble为固定搭配。cleared“清除”、solved“解决”、managed“设法”，不与 trouble“搭配”。 10. 句意：然后回来和那个人谈谈。 前文“walk away for a while”走开一会儿，形成先后逻辑。应选用come back，表示“回来”，指先走开冷静，再回来沟通。go out“出去”、work out“解决”、talk back“顶嘴”，逻辑不符。 Passage 9 Long long ago, there lived a young man called Jack in a village. One day, he left his hometown for a better life. Along the way, he found some ants by a river. They were very 1 because a bear destroyed their anthill. Jack helped them rebuild it. The ants said they would help him in return, but he didn’t 2 it. Jack continued his way. He found some bees with the same problem as the 3 in a forest. The young man stopped again and helped them with the rebuilding. The bees 4 to help him in the future, but he went away without saying much. Further along, Jack 5 the King’s daughter was kept in the castle of a witch (女巫). The young man decided to go and save her alone. The witch gave him a bag of sand mixed with flower seeds. She told him that if he wasn’t able to separate the two, she would cut off his head at dawn. The young man felt really 6 because it was completely impossible to finish the job in one night. To his surprise, his ant friends came and helped him pass the 7 . The witch was so surprised that she gave Jack another test. He had to 8 the princess among 13 face-covered girls. Jack was upset and didn’t know what to do. Suddenly, he saw a bee land on the sweetest one, the true princess. When Jack uncovered her face with 9 , the witch’s magic broke.

D 6. B 7. A 8. D 9. D 10. C 【导语】本文讲述了杰克帮助蚂蚁和蜜蜂后，在拯救公主时得到它们帮助的故事。 【详解】1. 句意：它们非常难过，因为一只熊毁掉了它们的蚁丘。 蚂蚁的家被熊毁掉，它们感到“难过”，sad“难过的”符合。excited“兴奋的”，stupid“愚蠢的”，quiet“安静的”，均与家园被毁时的悲伤情绪不符。 2. 句意：蚂蚁说他们会报答他，但他没有在意。 蚂蚁说要回报杰克，杰克不相信小动物能帮上忙，所以“没在意”，care about“在意”符合，且为否定形式didn’t care about。look for“寻找”，part with“放弃”，hear from“收到来信”，均与“不在意”的含义不符。 3. 句意：杰克发现一些蜜蜂在森林里遇到了和蚂蚁一样的问题。 上文蚂蚁的家被熊毁掉，此处蜜蜂也遇到了同样的问题，ants“蚂蚁”符合，表示蜜蜂遇到了与“蚂蚁”相同的问题，即家园被毁。bears“熊”是破坏者，king“国王”，witch“女巫”，均与问题主体无关。 4. 句意：蜜蜂承诺将来会帮助他。 蜜蜂得到杰克帮助后，表示将来会“承诺”报答，promised“承诺”符合。regretted“后悔”，remembered“记住”，pretended“假装”，均与主动提供帮助的意愿不符。 5. 句意：进一步往前走，杰克听说国王的女儿被关在女巫的城堡里。 杰克得知公主被困的消息，learned“得知”符合，表示通过某种途径了解到信息。supposed“猜想”，thought“认为”，cheated“欺骗”，均与“听说消息”的含义不符。 6. 句意：年轻人感到非常绝望，因为在一夜之间完成这项工作完全不可能。 女巫给的任务不可能完成，杰克感到“绝望”，hopeless“绝望的”符合。meaningless“无意义的”，careless“粗心的”，uncomfortable“不舒服的”，均与面对不可能任务时的绝望情绪不符。 7. 句意：令他惊讶的是，他的蚂蚁朋友们来了，帮助他通过了考验。 蚂蚁帮助杰克完成了女巫的任务，通过了“考验”，test“考验”符合。road“路”，time“时间”，flower“花”，均与女巫的测试任务不符。 8. 句意：他必须在13个蒙面女孩中找出公主。 杰克需要从众多女孩中“找出”真正的公主，discover“发现，找出”符合。describe“描述”，control“控制”，notice“注意到”，均与“辨认出真正公主”的要求不符。 9. 句意：杰克兴奋地揭开了她的面纱。 杰克成功找出公主后，心情“兴奋”地揭开了面纱，excitement“兴奋”符合。talent“天赋”，argument“争论”，force“力量”，均与成功时的积极情绪状态不符。 10. 句意：在日常生活中，我们应该以善良和热情对待每一个人。 故事中小动物们因杰克的“善良”而回报他，kindness“善良”符合。interest“兴趣”，honesty“诚实”，satisfaction“满意”，均与善待他人的品质不符。 Passage 10 Chrissy, a new angel (天使), was in charge of the rain. Every Monday, she had to be sure that the 1 spread their raindrops (雨滴) all over the world, because every living thing on the earth needed rain. But no one had told Chrissy how to make them rain. Chrissy asked one of the older angels 2 he could help her. “The angel that had the job before you used to tell 3 stories to the clouds to make them cry.” But Chrissy was a very happy little angel and she didn’t know any sad tales. She flew up to ask the man in the moon. “You might 4 pinching (捏) the clouds to make them cry.” But Chrissy didn’t want to hurt the clouds, so she decided to 5 that idea. The next morning, as Chrissy was jumping from cloud to cloud, she heard someone 6 . It was the little cloud. She asked the little cloud what was so funny. “It’s your toes,” replied the cloud. “They tickle (使发痒) us when you walk.” “Oh, I’m sorry,” said Chrissy. “I will be more 7 .” “No, no, please don’t. We love to be tickled. It makes us laugh so hard that we almost cry.” Well, that gave Chrissy a good 8 . She said goodbye to the cloud and went off. The next day was Monday. It was raining all over the world. Little Chrissy was jumping above all the clouds in the sky, 9 the clouds were laughing hard and tears were pouring from their eyes. The tears 10 to the earth and made wonderful rain. 1. A．clouds B．stories C．messages D．angels 2. A．that B．what C．which D．whether 3. A．beautiful B．funny C．sad D．happy 4.

D 【导语】本文讲述了负责下雨的新天使Chrissy，从不知道如何让云朵下雨，到通过和云朵交流，找到让云朵笑出眼泪来降雨的方法，最终成功完成任务的故事。 【详解】1. 句意：每个周一，她都必须确保云朵将雨滴洒向世界各地，因为地球上的每一种生物都需要雨水。 文中“spread their raindrops”表明能播撒雨滴的是云朵，clouds符合语境。stories故事、messages信息、angels天使，均无法播撒雨滴，不符合逻辑。 2. 句意：Chrissy问一位年长的天使是否能帮助她。 文中“he could help her”是Chrissy的疑问，whether引导宾语从句可表达“是否”的含义，符合语境。that引导宾语从句无实义；what、which引导宾语从句需在从句中充当主/宾语，此处从句不缺成分，故不符。 3. 句意：在你之前负责这份工作的天使过去常常给云朵讲悲伤的故事，让它们哭出来。 文中“to make them cry”表明故事的目的是让云朵哭，sad“悲伤的”符合语境。beautiful美好的、funny有趣的、happy开心的，故事都不会让人哭，无法达到让云朵下雨的目的。 4. 句意：你可以试试捏云朵让它们哭。 文中是给Chrissy提出的让云朵哭的建议，try doing sth.符合语境。practice练习、mind介意、enjoy享受，代入后语义不通，不符合建议场景。 5. 句意：但Chrissy不想伤害云朵，所以她决定放弃那个想法。 文中“Chrissy didn’t want to hurt the clouds”表明她不想伤害云朵，因此放弃捏云朵的想法，give up符合语境。give in屈服、give out分发、give away赠送，均与“想法”搭配不当，不符合语境。 6. 句意：第二天早上，当Chrissy从一朵云跳到另一朵云上时，她听到有人在笑。 文中云朵提到“They tickle us when you walk”和“We love to be tickled. It makes us laugh so hard”，表明此时云朵正在笑，laughing符合语境。talking说话、dancing跳舞、crying哭，均与后文云朵大笑的情节矛盾。 7. 句意：“哦，对不起，”Chrissy说，“我会更小心的。” 文中Chrissy以为自己弄疼了云朵，因此道歉，careful符合道歉的语境。exciting令人兴奋的、interesting有趣的、careless粗心的，均与道歉时的态度不符。 8. 句意：好吧，这给了 Chrissy一个好主意。 文中云朵的话让 Chrissy想到了让云朵笑出眼泪来降雨的方法或主意，idea符合语境。advice是他人给出的意见，此处是Chrissy自己想到的方法；luck运气、gift礼物，均与解决问题的语境无关。 9. 句意：Chrissy在天空中所有的云朵上方跳来跳去，所以云朵们笑得很厉害，眼泪从它们的眼睛里涌了出来。 文中“Chrissy was jumping above all the clouds”和“the clouds were laughing hard and tears were pouring”是因果关系，Chrissy跳来跳去挠痒云朵，云朵才会大笑流泪，so符合逻辑。or或者/否则、unless除非、but但是，均无法体现因果逻辑。 10. 句意：眼泪落到地上，变成了美妙的雨水。 文中“made wonderful rain”表明云朵的眼泪从天空落到地面变成了雨水，fell符合语境。took带走、read读、led带领，均与眼泪变成雨水的过程不符。 Passage 11 After a few weeks in China, I started to notice something strange at the dinner table. I was in a restaurant with my friends when, beside us on another table, a group of four men were 1 at each other and waving their money around. I finally learned that they were 2 “fighting” to pay the bill! This 3 made me surprised. In a British restaurant, you’ll just pay for yourself. It’s called“splitting (分开) the bill”. I guess there is one 4 to explain some of the differences between East and West. How you pay the bill 5 how you order, as well as how you eat. Usually in Chinese 6 , the group decides on each dish, and the group eats all of the dishes. So how can people split the bill if they are all sharing! It is 7 from how people eat Western-style food. Each person chooses the food that he or she wants. We don’t often 8 food. So it’s 9 to pay for what you ordered. I personally enjoy both practices. It’s nice to treat your friends to dinner on some special 10 . And it’s nice to receive a treat. And on days when I eat Western food, I know there will be no “fighting” over who should pay! 1.

D 【导语】文章讲述了作者在中国餐馆看到争抢买单的场景，对比了中西方饮食文化中买单方式的差异及原因。 【详解】1. 句意：我和朋友在餐馆，邻桌四个男人朝着彼此大喊大叫，挥舞着他们的钱。 结合后文可知人们抢着买单时情绪比较激动，此处描述“对着彼此大喊、挥着钱”，shouting符合题意，其余选项“laughing笑；fighting打架；working工作”均与题意不符。 2. 句意：我终于了解到他们实际上是在为付账而“打架”！ 作者一开始不明白这群人的行为，最后弄清楚“实际上”他们是抢着买单，actually表示“实际上”，符合语境。其他选项“hardly几乎不；properly恰当地；suddenly突然”与题意不符。 3. 句意：这一行为让我很惊讶。 此处指代前文描述的争抢买单的行为场景，manner意为“方式、行为”，最符合语境。其余选项“result结果；rescue救援；warning警告”均与题意不符。 4. 句意：我猜有一个原因可以解释东西方的一些差异。 后文是作者解释东西方差异的原因，此处表示“有一个理由可以解释东西方的差异”，reason符合逻辑。其余选项“service服务；goal目标；word单词”均与题意不符。 5. 句意：如何付账取决于如何点餐、如何用餐。 根据语境，买单方式与点菜方式有关，depend on意为“取决于”，符合逻辑。其余选项“cares about关心；worries about担心；agrees with同意”均与题意不符。 6. 句意：通常在中国餐馆里，大家一起点菜、共同食用菜品。 全文讲的是餐馆用餐的习惯，此处是“在中国的餐馆里”，restaurants符合语境。其余选项“museums博物馆；homes家；hospitals医院”均与题意不符。 7. 句意：这与人们吃西餐的方式不同。 根据上下文对比中西方差异，be different from是固定搭配，意为“与……不同”。其余选项“same相同；similar相似；special特别”均与题意不符。 8. 句意：我们不经常分享食物。 中式用餐是分享所有菜品，而西式每人点自己的，不分享食物，share符合语境。其余选项“eat吃；shake摇；fight争”均与题意不符。 9. 句意：所以支付你点的东西很简单。 因为各点各的，所以算账付款很简单，simple符合逻辑。其余选项“strange奇怪的；quick快的；creative有创意的”均与题意不符。 10. 句意：在一些特殊场合请朋友吃顿饭是很好的。 on some special occasions是固定搭配，意为“在一些特殊场合”，此处指特殊时候请朋友吃饭很开心，occasions符合语境。其余选项“traditions传统；cultures文化；customs习俗”均与题意不符。 Passage 12 Some people sniff (用鼻子吸气) their socks to see if they might wear them another day. It might seem like a 1 habit. But what if a dangerous fungus (真菌) has developed in your socks? A man from Zhangzhou, Fujian Province, was 2 to a local hospital.

Much to everyone’s 5 , the following tests showed that the infection was caused by a fungus. The fungus is usually found in shoes or boots. Doctors found that the man had been used to 6 his dirty socks when he got home from work every day. They believed when the man took a deep breath to sniff his smelly socks, he breathed in the fungus as well. Then it caused an infection. According to the doctors, this kind of infection does not happen very often. In this case, it might also have been linked to the man’s 7 health system. He had been under heavy 8 for a long time. He went to work every day and had to 9 several times a night to take care of his baby. All of these things were affecting his health system. 10 , the man was treated (治疗) immediately at the hospital.

C 【导语】本文主要讲述福建漳州一名男子因日常习惯闻脏袜子，吸入真菌患上严重肺部感染，加上长期压力大、夜间照顾孩子体质偏弱，最后入院救治、有望痊愈的故事。 【详解】1. 句意：这看似是一个无伤大雅的习惯。 根据后文“But what if a dangerous fungus has developed on your socks”转折引出患病风险，harmless“无害的”符合；good“好的”，painful“疼痛的”，dangerous“危险的”，均和日常不起眼的习惯语境不符。 2. 句意：一名福建漳州男子被送往当地医院。 根据后文身患重病就医的语境，sent“送往”符合就医；carried“搬运”，put“放置”，took“拿；带”，均不符合入院就医的语境。 3. 句意：他胸口疼痛，频繁咳嗽。 根据身患肺部感染，have a pain in his chest表示“胸口疼”；gain“收获”，headache“头疼”，fever“发烧”，不能与in his chest搭配。 4. 句意：X光片显示他得了严重的肺部感染。 根据拍片检查得出病情结果，showed“显示”符合；said“说”，appeared“出现”，proved“证明”，均不符合医学拍片检查的语境。 5. 句意：令所有人吃惊的是，后续检查表明感染由真菌造成。 根据病菌源头是袜子这件事出人意料，to one’s surprise表示“令某人吃惊的是”；sadness“伤心”，happiness“开心”，anger“气愤”，无法构成该固定搭配。 6. 句意：医生发现这名男子习惯于每天下班回家闻脏袜子。 根据be used to doing“习惯于做某事”，结合原文嗜好，smelling“闻”符合；dropping“掉落”，wearing“穿戴”，washing“清洗”，和原文怪异习惯不符。 7. 句意：这种感染或许也和男子偏弱的身体机能有关。 根据长期劳累伤身，weak“虚弱的”符合语境；low“低矮的”，powerful“有力的”，strong“强壮的”，和身体不佳的文意相悖。 8. 句意：他长期处在巨大压力之下。 根据熬夜照料孩子、日日上班，under heavy stress“承受巨大压力”符合；fairness“公平’”，condition“条件”，exercise“锻炼”，不符合身心疲惫的语境。 9. 句意：他每天上班，夜里需要多次起床照顾孩子。 根据夜间照料婴儿，wake up“醒来”符合；set up“搭建”，grow up“长大”，give up“放弃”，和半夜起身照看孩子不匹配。 10. 句意：最后，男子立刻在医院接受了治疗。 根据前文铺垫病因与身体状况，文末交代就医结果，Finally“最后”承接全文收尾；Luckily“幸运地”，Sadly“难过地”，Quickly“快速地”，不符合行文收尾逻辑。 Passage 13 通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在每小题所给的四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案，并将答题卡对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 What do you do in your free time?

D 【导语】本文对比了古代罗马（浴室、战车比赛、角斗士）和古希腊（奥运会）的娱乐活动，展现了古人丰富多彩的休闲方式。 【详解】1. 句意：但是在古代，没有电视或互联网。 根据上文“如今人们看电视或上网”，下文问“人们如何找乐子”，说明时间对比为“古代”。若用modern则需“有电视”，不符；new和short与语境无关。所以选ancient。 2. 句意：它们是大房间，通常挤满了人。 固定搭配“be full of”意为“充满”。若用sure of则需“确信”，afraid of“害怕”，empty of“空无”，均不合“人多”之意。 3. 句意：罗马人去那里放松并与朋友交谈。 浴室主要功能是放松身心。wait“等待”、help“帮助”、work“工作”与浴室活动无直接关联。所以选relax。 4. 句意：尽管它很刺激，但对车手和马来说这是一场危险的比赛。 下文“有时甚至夺走生命”说明风险高。boring“无聊”、interesting“有趣”、surprising“惊讶”均无法解释生命危险。所以选dangerous。 5. 句意：有时甚至夺走他们的生命。 固定搭配“take one’s life”意为“夺走生命”。habits“习惯”、problems“问题”、hobbies“爱好”与“夺走”不搭配。 6. 句意：另一个非常受欢迎的活动是观看角斗士战斗。 上文提到罗马人喜欢战车比赛，此处继续介绍另一项大众活动。scary“可怕的”、helpful“有帮助的”、serious“严肃的”与“观看角斗士”的吸引力不符。所以选popular。 7. 句意：然而，他们中很少有人喜欢在人们面前战斗。 前句“有非常好的角斗士”与后句“很少有人喜欢战斗”形成转折关系。Also“也”表并列，And“和”表顺承，Or“或者”表选择，均不表示转折。所以选However。 8. 句意：在古希腊，人们做很多运动。 下文“第一届奥运会”明确指出是体育活动。art“艺术”、science“科学”、music“音乐”与奥运会无关。所以选sports。 9. 句意：只有一场比赛，只有男人可以参加比赛。 固定搭配“join in the race”意为“参加比赛”。watch“观看”与后文“女人不能观看”矛盾；keep“保持”、deal“处理”不合语法。 10. 句意：那么，你觉得这些古代活动怎么样？ 短语“think of”意为“认为”，用于询问看法。get over“克服”、learn about“了解”、feel like“想要”均不用于征询观点。 Passage 14 先通读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选择可以填入相应空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I went to a blood drive held at a church recently. I arrived early to be first because I knew it would take a while. After getting my pulse (脉搏) and blood pressure 1 , a young woman walked me to the donor area. While she was getting the things ready, we talked about the weather. I also told her that the only pain I really got from 2 blood was later when I pulled the tape bandage (绷带) off my hairy Italian arms. While I was talking, 3 , I was feeling a gentle urge in my heart to say something else. Finally I stopped talking and said to the young woman: “I’m 4 for all the hard work you guys put in. You really are saving lives!” She looked 5 for a second, blinking back tears. “Thank you”, she said. “No one ever says that.” It seemed my simple words had deeply 6 her heart. Later after I had finished donating, I saw the woman working with another donor and we waved and shared a 7 before I headed home. I left the church with a clear head and a happy heart. I was glad I’d followed my inner 8 . Henry James wrote: “Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. The third is to be kind.” His words 9 us of the power of kindness. If you feel the gentle urge within to say or do something kind then, don’t hold back. God wants you to do them. God’s love lives deep within all of our souls. We are here to spread joy and make this world a better place with everything we say and everything we do. May we always try our best to act 10 and bring warmth to people around us. 1. A．checked B．felt C．treated D．saved 2. A．giving B．lending C．offering D．donating 3. A．however B．instead C．therefore D．besides 4. A．helpful B．polite C．careful D．grateful 5. A．angry B．surprised C．bored D．tired 6. A．broken B．won C．touched D．closed 7. A．secret B．promise C．kiss D．smile 8. A．voice B．fear C．dream D．goal 9. A．remind B．remember C．respect D．review 10. A．quietly B．bravely C．kindly D．patiently 【答案】 1. A 2. D 3. A 4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 8. A 9. A 10. C 【导语】本文讲述作者参加献血活动，感谢工作人员辛勤付出，对方感动落泪，文章倡导我们要听从内心善意，善待他人，温暖世界。 【详解】1. 句意：测完脉搏和血压后，一个年轻的女人带我走向捐赠区域。 根据“pulse and blood pressure”，体检指标需被“检查”，故checked符合语境。 2. 句意：我也告诉她，我唯一感觉到的疼痛是在献血后当我撕掉绷带时它粘住了我多毛的意大利手臂。 根据“blood drive”以及下文“Later after I had finished donating”可知，是“献血”，donate blood为固定搭配。 3. 句意：然而，当我说话时，我感到内心冲动，想说些别的。 根据前半句“While I was talking”和后半句“I was feeling a gentle urge in my heart to say something else.”可知，表面聊天内心却有冲动，前后句意是转折关系，however表转折。 4. 句意：我对你们的辛勤工作很感激。 根据后文“Thank you”以及“You really are saving lives!”可知，此处是表达感谢，be grateful to表示感激。 5. 句意：她愣了一瞬，强忍住泪水。 根据“No one ever says that”可知，没人说过这话，所以应该是感到意外惊讶，surprised符合语境。 6. 句意：似乎我简单的话语深深打动了她的心。 根据“blinking back tears”可知，话语触动了情感，固定搭配“touch heart”表示感动。 7. 句意：……在我回家之前，我们挥手并分享了一个微笑。 根据“we waved and shared a...”及友好氛围可知，陌生人之间通常是微笑表示友好，smile符合。 8. 句意：我很高兴听从了内心的声音。 根据前文“urge in my heart”，可知，此处指内心的指引或声音，inner voice符合语境。 9. 句意：他的话提醒我们善良的力量。 根据后半句“...the power of kindness.”可知，前面是要提醒人们善良的力量。“remind sb. of sth.”固定搭配，意为“提醒某人某事”。 10. 句意：愿我们努力友善行事，给我们周围的人带来温暖。 根据全文主旨及Henry James名言“Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind...be kind.”，可知，此处呼应善良的主题，kindly符合。 三、阅读理解 Passage 15 It is nine o’clock on Saturday morning. Liu Lu is reading a story.

A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了刘璐正在读《后羿射日》的故事，并计划在下周一的讲故事俱乐部分享她的读书报告，文中还介绍了故事内容和刘璐的读后感。 【详解】1. 文章第一段第三句“She wants to write a report on the story and share it in the storytelling club next Monday.”指出，她将在下周一分享报告。 2. 文章“From: Chinese Fairy Tales”部分明确指出，这个故事来自《中国神话故事》。 3. 文章“About the tale”部分中“Hou Yi shot down nine suns”指出，后羿射下了九个太阳。图片A为后羿形象。 4. 文章“About the tale”部分中“sometimes all ten suns set out at the same time”指出，有时十个太阳同时出现在天空。 5. 文章“Review”部分最后一句“I hope it can be longer.”指出，刘璐希望故事更长一些，说明她觉得故事有点短。 Passage 16 Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. “You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said. National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations. Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities. The following tips can help you if you have some of these worries. ★ Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life. ★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values. ★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked. ★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, and he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations. ★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them. ★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity. Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “… little things can change a person’s life.” 1. Volunteering can help ________. A．make a decision B．see the world clearly C．thank other people D．make people’s life better 2. Which of the following can help people take the first step? A．Start out quickly. B．Organize a training meeting. C．Invite a friend to be with them. D．Join in a group with different values. 3. The underlined word “veteran” in the passage means “________”. A．polite B．humorous C．young D．experienced 4. Which of the following statements about National Volunteer Week is TRUE according to the passage? A．It is held every four years in April. B．It was first started in the 1970s. C．Its only purpose is to thank volunteers. D．It mainly helps people meet the organization’s expectations. 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A．To tell people to make changes in their lives. B．To encourage people to start their volunteering. C．How to make great achievements in volunteering. D．How to keep on volunteering whatever happened. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. D 4. B 5. B 【导语】本文主要介绍了“全国志愿者周”的意义，分析了人们不愿成为志愿者的顾虑（如担心无法满足期望、不认识其他人、时间不足等），并提供了克服这些顾虑、开始志愿服务的建议。 【详解】1. 第一段引用志愿者Mason的话：“You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better...”，说明志愿服务可以帮助改善人们的生活（make people’s life better）。 2. 根据文中提供的建议，“Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.”，邀请朋友或家人一起参与可以消除孤独感，帮助人们迈出第一步。 3. “veteran”所在的句子提到：“Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, and he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations.”，既然他做了很多志愿工作并能指导新人，说明他是“有经验的”（experienced）。 4. 第二段明确指出：“National Volunteer Week started in 1974...”，1974年属于20世纪70年代，因此B项正确。 5. 文章首先引出志愿服务的好处，然后指出很多人想参与但有顾虑，接着重点列举了如何克服这些顾虑并开始志愿服务的建议，最后再次强调志愿服务的意义。因此，文章的主旨是鼓励人们开始志愿服务之旅。 Passage 17 After noticing that his keyboard playing calmed his noisy dog, Yuvi Agarwal, a 12-year-old boy from Houston, wondered if music could help comfort shelter (收容所) animals, too. So with support from his parents, he founded a nonprofit program Wild Tunes in 2023 to invite musicians to perform at animal shelters. So far, about 100 volunteers of all ages have played at nine shelters in cities including Houston and Denver. Yuvi explained that music could break through language barriers — even across species. At Denver Animal Shelter, he saw an old dog named Pituca become calm within minutes of his playing, and some animals even fall asleep. In Houston, a rescue dog called Penelope had refused to leave her cage to eat. After Yuvi played, she came out, kissed his face and touched his ears. Although music’s effect on humans is well-studied, its impact on animals remains unclear. Some research shows that classical music may help calm dogs in stressful places like animal shelters. However, experts like Dr. Lori Kogan say the evidence is still limited. “We want simple answers, like ‘music calms animals’, but it is more nuanced,” said Kogan, adding that many factors matter, such as the environment, the type of music, the volume, and the animal’s past experiences. She suggests trying music with your own pet — if it helps your pet relax, that’s good. Even though scientists are still debating, Yuvi believes music can comfort stressed animals. He plans to expand his nonprofit program across the country. Volunteers also benefit because they can play music or sing for a nonjudgmental audience. This helps build their confidence. Yuvi’s work shows that music’s calming power may work for animals too. 1. What made Yuvi start the program Wild Tunes? A．A strong interest in keyboard. B．A suggestion from his parents. C．A special experience with his own dog. D．An invitation from Houston and Denver. 2. What does the example of the rescue dog Penelope show? A．The dog loves to play with humans. B．The dog becomes even sleepier with music. C．The dog feels relaxed after listening to some music. D．The dog understands music better than other animals. 3. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．clear B．complex C．important D．surprising 4. How do volunteers benefit from Yuvi’s program? A．They get well-paid for their performances. B．They have more chances to play music or sing. C．They enjoy music’s calming effect on themselves. D．They become more confident by playing without judgement. 5. Which is the best title for the passage? A．A Music-related Job for Volunteers B．A Music Program for Stressed Animals C．A Debate over Music’s Effect on Animals D．An Opportunity to Realise a Teenager’s Dream 【答案】1. C 2. C 3. B 4. D 5. B 【导语】本文主要讲述了12岁的男孩Yuvi Agarwal发现音乐能安抚自己的宠物狗，进而想知道音乐是否也能帮助收容所的动物。在父母支持下，他创立了“Wild Tunes”非营利项目，邀请音乐家到动物收容所表演。 【详解】1. 根据第一段“After noticing that his keyboard playing calmed his noisy dog…he founded a nonprofit program Wild Tunes in 2023”可知，是他和自己的狗特殊经历促使他启动该项目。 2. 根据第二段“In Houston, a rescue dog called Penelope had refused to leave her cage to eat. After Yuvi played, she came out, kissed his face and touched his ears”，这说明Penelope在听了音乐后变得放松了。 3. 前文提到人们想要“音乐能安抚动物”这样的简单答案，但后文指出影响效果的因素很多 (环境、音乐类型、音量、动物过往经历)，说明实际情况并非单一简单，而是“微妙且复杂的”；因此“nuanced”在这里意为“复杂的、多方面的”，与“complex”同义。 4. 根据最后一段“Volunteers also benefit because they can play music or sing for a nonjudgmental audience. This helps build their confidence.”可知，志愿者通过在无评判的环境中演奏，变得更加自信。 5. 全文围绕Yuvi发起的Wild Tunes项目展开，核心主题是“用音乐帮助缓解收容所中压力较大的动物”，因此“A Music Program for Stressed Animals”最贴合文章主旨，适合作为文章的标题。 Passage 18 It was late when Matthew Cuthbert arrived home. His sister Marilla was waiting for him. However, she was very surprised when her eyes fell on the strange little figure beside him. Instead of the boy she was expecting, there stood a girl in a stiff, ugly dress, with red hair and bright eyes. “Matthew Cuthbert, who’s that?” she asked. “Where is the boy?” “There wasn’t any boy at the station,” said Matthew. “There was only her.” “No boy?” Marilla insisted (坚持说). “But we sent word to Mrs. Spencer to bring a boy!” The little girl was silent at first, but then she understood what they were saying. “You don’t want me because I’m not a boy!” she cried, and she began to cry stormily. “Well, there’s no need to cry,” Marilla said, a little more softly. “We are not going to send you outside tonight. What’s your name?” “Will you please call me Cordelia?” the girl said eagerly. But after Marilla’s questioning, she admitted unwillingly that her real name was Anne Shirley, which she felt was unromantic. “Cordelia is such a perfectly elegant name. I’ve always imagined that my name was Cordelia!” “Nonsense,” said Marilla. “Anne is a really good plain name.” She then explained, “We need a boy to help Matthew on the farm. A girl is no use to us.” At supper, Anne was too sad to eat. She said she was in “the depths of despair (绝望).” Later, when Anne was sent to bed, Marilla and Matthew discussed the situation. Marilla was determined that the girl must be sent back. Matthew, however, spoke up unexpectedly. “She’s a real interesting little thing,” he insisted. “We might be some good to her.” As Matthew went to bed, Marilla frowned, and upstairs, the lonely child cried herself to sleep. ——Adapted from Anne of Green Gables 1. Why was Marilla shocked when Matthew came home? A．Because Matthew was late. B．Because the girl was poorly dressed. C．Because Matthew didn’t wait for her. D．Because Matthew brought a girl rather than a boy. 2. What can you infer about Anne from the conversation? A．She is shy and speaks very little. B．She is satisfied with her situation. C．She is calm and does not have strong emotions. D．She is imaginative and has a desire for romance. 3. Why didn’t Marilla want Anne? A．Because Anne was lost deeply in sadness. B．Because Anne was crying loudly all the time. C．Because Anne wasn’t much help with the farm work. D．Because Anne had an ordinary and unimaginative name. 4. How did Matthew feel about sending Anne back? A．He didn’t want to argue with Marilla. B．He thought Marilla’s ideas were important. C．He felt sorry for Anne and advised keeping her. D．He thought Anne’s leaving might be good to them. 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A．A big fight between the Cuthberts. B．A strange girl disliked her plain name. C．A girl had a terrible night at the Cuthberts’. D．An unwanted girl was brought to the Cuthberts’. 【答案】1. D 2. D 3. C 4. C 5. D 【导语】本文节选讲述兄妹二人本打算领养男孩帮忙务农，却意外接回女孩安妮，二人对此产生分歧，安妮满心失落难过。 【详解】1. 第一段“However, she was very surprised when her eyes fell on the strange little figure beside him. Instead of the boy she was expecting, there stood a girl...”，Marilla惊讶是因为“Matthew带回来的是一个女孩，而不是他们原本预期的男孩”。 2. 倒数第四段“Will you please call me Cordelia?...‘Cordelia is such a perfectly elegant name. I’ve always imagined that my name was Cordelia!’”，Anne不喜欢自己平凡的名字，幻想自己有一个优雅的名字，这体现了她“富有想象力且渴望浪漫”的特质。 3. 倒数第三段“...said Marilla...‘We need a boy to help Matthew on the farm. A girl is no use to us.’”，Marilla不想要Anne是因为他们需要一个男孩在农场帮忙，而“女孩对他们没有用处”。 4. 倒数第一段“Matthew, however, spoke up unexpectedly. ‘She’s a real interesting little thing,’ he insisted. ‘We might be some good to her.’，Matthew认为Anne很有趣，他们也许能对安妮有好处，即“他们可以帮助她”，这表明“他同情Anne并建议留下她”，而不是送她走。 5. 通读全文可知，文章主要讲述Matthew意外带回了一个女孩Anne，而Cuthbert兄妹原本想要一个男孩来帮忙农活，导致Anne最初是不被需要的(unwanted)，随后描述了双方对此事的反应。D项“一个不被想要的女孩被带到了Cuthberts的家”最能概括文章的主要内容。 Passage 19 The Eye of the Sahara is one of the most amazing natural wonders on earth. It is located in the desert of Mauritania, Africa. It is as big as 500 football fields. When you look at it from the sky, it looks like a huge, bright eye! The Eye also looks like a big round pizza with different-coloured parts. How did it come into being? Long ago, the ground under the sand started to rise. Then, wind and rain slowly broke down the soft rocks, leaving the hard ones behind. Over time, these hard rocks formed the beautiful circles we see today. From above, you can count about 10 circles, and each one has a different colour. The biggest circle is on the outside, with smaller ones inside. But the Eye of the Sahara is in trouble. The desert is very dry, and sandstorms often sweep across it. The sand covers the rocks and makes them difficult to see. Also, few people know about this amazing place because it's far from big cities. What can we do to help? Scientists are studying the Eye to find ways to conserve the rocks. They want to keep the rocks safe and stop the blowing sand from breaking them down. Some people also suggest building a small road or a simple visitor centre nearby to help more people know about the Eye of the Sahara. At the same time, they advise people to take measures to protect the rocks. 1. What does“500 football fields” in Paragraph 1 show? A．It shows how large the Eye is. B．It shows why the Eye is bright. C．It shows when the Eye appears. D．It shows where the Eye is in Africa. 2. Look at the pictures below. Which one best shows the Eye of the Sahara when looking at it from the sky? A． B． C． D． 3. What does the underlined word “conserve” most likely mean? A．Break down B．Hide C．Protect D．Change the colour 4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE? A．The Eye of the Sahara is located in Africa. B．Wind and rain broke down the soft rocks long ago. C．The Eye of the Sahara is close to big cities. D．Scientists advise people to take measures to protect the rocks. 5. What is the passage mainly about? A．A natural wonder and its trouble. B．Building roads in the desert. C．A story of rocks. D．Different deserts around the world. 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. C 4. C 5. A 【导语】本文主要介绍了非洲毛里塔尼亚沙漠中的自然奇观——撒哈拉之眼，包括它的大小、形成原因、面临的困境以及人们为保护它所做的努力。 【详解】1. 第一段明确提到：“It is as big as 500 football fields”，用500个足球场来形容撒哈拉之眼，说明它非常巨大，因此“500 football fields”展示的是撒哈拉之眼有多大。 2. 第一段指出：“When you look at it from the sky, it looks like a huge, bright eye”以及“The Eye also looks like a big round pizza with different-coloured parts”，还提到“The biggest circle is on the outside, with smaller ones inside”，说明从天空看撒哈拉之眼像一个有不同颜色圆圈的巨大圆环，最大的圈在外面，小圈在里面，选项B图示符合描述。 3. 第三段提到：“Scientists are studying the Eye to find ways to conserve the rocks. They want to keep the rocks safe and stop the blowing sand from breaking them down”，说明科学家研究撒哈拉之眼是为了找到方法保护岩石，让岩石保持安全，因此“conserve”意为“保护”。 4. 第二段最后一句指出：“Also, few people know about this amazing place because it’s far from big cities”，说明撒哈拉之眼离大城市很远，而非靠近大城市，因此C选项“撒哈拉之眼靠近大城市”是不正确的。 5. 本文第一段介绍撒哈拉之眼这一自然奇观，第二段讲它面临的困境（沙尘暴、少有人知），第三段讲保护措施，因此本文主要讲述的是一个自然奇观及其面临的困境。 Passage 20 Research shows that kindness makes people feel happier. But why and how does it happen? Here are a number of different ways. Being kind can make someone smile. If you see yourself smile in a situation, people around you may be smiling, too. This is especially true for your close friends and family. A kind act (行为) makes someone who is sad feel better. It can also make ourselves feel good. Secondly, being kind starts or develops a social connection with others. Kind acts like buying someone a gift make friendships stronger. Research shows that spending money on others’ needs may help you get a stronger feeling of happiness than spending it on yourself. Then in another study, even children know how being kind makes them feel happy. If one person is kind, he or she makes others in the group kind. Imagine (设想) that you make cakes for the office and it makes others do it each month. Then you’re getting cakes a lot more days than giving them. The story doesn’t end here. ▲ Research also shows that if you’re in a good mood (心情), you can act much more kindly. This makes it a wonderful two-way relationship, doesn’t it? 1. What is the passage mainly about? A．How to make friends with others. B．How to stay in a good mood. C．How kindness makes people happier. D．How to help sad people. 2. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to (指的是)? A．A smile. B．The situation. C．The family. D．A kind act. 3. What can make the friendship stronger according to Paragraph 3? A．Giving gifts to others. B．Spending money on ourselves. C．Smiling at family members. D．Making cakes every day. 4. Which sentence can be put in the blank ▲ in last Paragraph? A．Good moods never influence our life. B．Kindness and mood influence each other. C．People can always stay happy easily. D．Doing kind things wastes time. 5. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. A 4. B 5. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要阐述了善良如何通过多种方式让人更快乐：善良能传递笑容、改善情绪、建立社交联结，还会形成 “善良带来好心情，好心情促进行善” 的双向正向循环。 【详解】1. 文章开头就点明 “善良能让人更快乐”，后续段落都是在解释善良如何通过不同方式带来快乐，故选C“善良如何让人更快乐”。 A、B、D都只是文章的局部内容，并非主旨。 2. 根据文章第二段“A kind act (行为) makes someone who is sad feel better. It can also make ourselves feel good.”可知，两个句子主语一致，“It”指代前文的“a kind act”。故选D善意的行为。 3. 第三段明确提到 “Kind acts like buying someone a gift make friendships stronger.（像给别人买礼物这样的善举能让友谊更牢固）”，故选A给他人买礼物。 4. 空处需要起到承上启下的作用。前文讲了 “善良带来快乐 / 友善”，后文讲 “好心情让人更友善”，两者是相互影响的关系，因此选 B “善良和心情会互相影响”,其他几项没有涉及。 5. 文章结构为总—分—总： ① 总起：提出 “善良让人快乐” 并引出下文； ②③④ 分述：三个不同的方式（传递微笑、建立联结、互相影响）； ⑤ 总结：形成双向关系，呼应开头。选项 A 的结构（①→②③④，②③④→⑤）符合 “总—分—总” 的逻辑。 四、选词填空 Passage 21 请从方框内选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使文章完整连贯。注意每空一词，每词仅用一次，有两词为多余项。 play   a   report   asleep   anymore   wind   so   heavy   tiring   kid   they   strange One day, Bill went to the beach with his friends Jim and Bob.

I finally learned that they were 2 “fighting” to pay the bill! This 3 made me surprised. In a British restaurant, you’ll just pay for yourself. It’s called“splitting (分开) the bill”. I guess there is one 4 to explain some of the differences between East and West. How you pay the bill 5 how you order, as well as how you eat.

They believed when the man took a deep breath to sniff his smelly socks, he breathed in the fungus as well. Then it caused an infection.

You really are saving lives!” She looked 5 for a second, blinking back tears. “Thank you”, she said. “No one ever says that.” It seemed my simple words had deeply 6 her heart. Later after I had finished donating, I saw the woman working with another donor and we waved and shared a 7 before I headed home. I left the church with a clear head and a happy heart.

Passage 16 Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. “You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said. National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations. Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities. The following tips can help you if you have some of these worries. ★ Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life. ★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values. ★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked. ★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, and he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations. ★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them. ★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity. Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “… little things can change a person’s life.” 1. Volunteering can help ________.

Passage 17 After noticing that his keyboard playing calmed his noisy dog, Yuvi Agarwal, a 12-year-old boy from Houston, wondered if music could help comfort shelter (收容所) animals, too. So with support from his parents, he founded a nonprofit program Wild Tunes in 2023 to invite musicians to perform at animal shelters. So far, about 100 volunteers of all ages have played at nine shelters in cities including Houston and Denver. Yuvi explained that music could break through language barriers — even across species. At Denver Animal Shelter, he saw an old dog named Pituca become calm within minutes of his playing, and some animals even fall asleep. In Houston, a rescue dog called Penelope had refused to leave her cage to eat. After Yuvi played, she came out, kissed his face and touched his ears. Although music’s effect on humans is well-studied, its impact on animals remains unclear. Some research shows that classical music may help calm dogs in stressful places like animal shelters. However, experts like Dr. Lori Kogan say the evidence is still limited. “We want simple answers, like ‘music calms animals’, but it is more nuanced,” said Kogan, adding that many factors matter, such as the environment, the type of music, the volume, and the animal’s past experiences. She suggests trying music with your own pet — if it helps your pet relax, that’s good. Even though scientists are still debating, Yuvi believes music can comfort stressed animals. He plans to expand his nonprofit program across the country. Volunteers also benefit because they can play music or sing for a nonjudgmental audience. This helps build their confidence.

His sister Marilla was waiting for him. However, she was very surprised when her eyes fell on the strange little figure beside him. Instead of the boy she was expecting, there stood a girl in a stiff, ugly dress, with red hair and bright eyes. “Matthew Cuthbert, who’s that?” she asked. “Where is the boy?” “There wasn’t any boy at the station,” said Matthew. “There was only her.” “No boy?” Marilla insisted (坚持说). “But we sent word to Mrs. Spencer to bring a boy!” The little girl was silent at first, but then she understood what they were saying. “You don’t want me because I’m not a boy!” she cried, and she began to cry stormily. “Well, there’s no need to cry,” Marilla said, a little more softly. “We are not going to send you outside tonight. What’s your name?” “Will you please call me Cordelia?” the girl said eagerly. But after Marilla’s questioning, she admitted unwillingly that her real name was Anne Shirley, which she felt was unromantic. “Cordelia is such a perfectly elegant name.

It is located in the desert of Mauritania, Africa. It is as big as 500 football fields. When you look at it from the sky, it looks like a huge, bright eye! The Eye also looks like a big round pizza with different-coloured parts. How did it come into being? Long ago, the ground under the sand started to rise. Then, wind and rain slowly broke down the soft rocks, leaving the hard ones behind. Over time, these hard rocks formed the beautiful circles we see today. From above, you can count about 10 circles, and each one has a different colour. The biggest circle is on the outside, with smaller ones inside. But the Eye of the Sahara is in trouble. The desert is very dry, and sandstorms often sweep across it. The sand covers the rocks and makes them difficult to see. Also, few people know about this amazing place because it's far from big cities. What can we do to help? Scientists are studying the Eye to find ways to conserve the rocks. They want to keep the rocks safe and stop the blowing sand from breaking them down. Some people also suggest building a small road or a simple visitor centre nearby to help more people know about the Eye of the Sahara. At the same time, they advise people to take measures to protect the rocks. 1. What does“500 football fields” in Paragraph 1 show? A．It shows how large the Eye is. B．It shows why the Eye is bright.

Passage 20 Research shows that kindness makes people feel happier. But why and how does it happen? Here are a number of different ways. Being kind can make someone smile.

The story doesn’t end here. ▲ Research also shows that if you’re in a good mood (心情), you can act much more kindly. This makes it a wonderful two-way relationship, doesn’t it? 1.

It’s easier than we might think—we just need to step outside and let nature embrace(拥抱)us. 1 city life is busy, we can still find small ways to get close to nature. For example, going on a(n) 2 to a park once in a while is a great start. We can walk barefoot on the grass, listen to birds sing, and even plant a small flower 3 . This makes us feel 4 relaxed than staying indoors all day. Visiting natural wonders like Victoria Falls or the Dead Sea is another wonderful way. The Mariana Trench, the deepest place on Earth, 5 us with curiosity; standing by the Nile River, one of the longest 6 , makes us realize how small we are.
