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. （ ）6．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. （ ）7．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. （ ）8．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．clear B．complex C．important D．surprising （ ）9．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. （ ）10．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】6．C 7．C 8．B 9．D 10．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】6．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。 7．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。 8．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。 9．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。 10．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。 （C） It was a rainy evening in a small town in southern China. A heavy rainstorm hit the mountain road, and a large rock fell onto the highway, blocking half of the road. Li Wei, a 38-year-old truck driver, was driving home with his 10-year-old daughter after a long day’s work. He was driving slowly on the right lane when he noticed two cars ahead suddenly disappear around the curve. Knowing something was wrong, he slowed down and stopped his truck right away. After getting out of the truck, Li Wei saw the huge rock blocking the road. His truck was only 10 meters away from the danger. “If I had kept driving, we would have hit the rock for sure,” he said later. Li Wei didn’t hesitate. He asked his daughter to stay in the truck and call the police, while he tried to stop the coming cars. At first, he used his truck’s warning lights and waved his arms, but some drivers didn’t see him in the rain. Two cars almost hit the rock because they were driving too fast. Then Li Wei took out his bright flashlight and stood in the middle of the road, waving and shouting loudly to every car that came by. Soon, the first car stopped. Then more and more drivers slowed down and stopped. Some drivers even got out to help move small stones away from the road. About 20 minutes later, the police and road workers arrived. They thanked Li Wei for saving so many lives. “In that moment, I didn’t think about myself. I just wanted to stop as many cars as possible and keep everyone safe,” Li Wei said. （ ）11．What can we know from Paragraph 2? A．The color of Li Wei’s truck. B．The place Li Wei was going to.

D．Funny and creative. （ ）14．What is the text mainly about? A．A terrible storm in the town. B．A useful phone call to the police. C．A hero driver in a road accident. D．Fast drivers on the mountain road. 【答案】11．B 12．C 13．A 14．C 【导语】本文讲述了卡车司机李伟在雨夜发现路中落石后，及时拦停过往车辆、避免事故的故事。 【详解】11．文中第2段提到“Li Wei, a 38-year-old truck driver, was driving home with his 10-year-old daughter after a long day’s work.”，说明我们可以得知李伟要去的地方（回家）。 12．根据原文顺序梳理事件：文中第1段提到“A heavy rainstorm hit the mountain road, and a large rock fell onto the highway”（②石头落到公路上）；文中第2段提到“He was driving slowly on the right lane”（④李伟在右侧车道缓慢行驶）；文中第2段提到“when he noticed two cars ahead suddenly disappear around the curve. Knowing something was wrong, he slowed down and stopped his truck right away”（③李伟及时发现危险）；文中第3段提到“he tried to stop the coming cars”（⑤李伟试图拦停过往车辆）；文中第5段提到“About 20 minutes later, the police and road workers arrived”（①警察到达）。因此正确顺序为②④③⑤①。 13．文中李伟在危险面前，不顾自身安危，主动拦停过往车辆，保护大家安全，体现了他的善良与勇敢。 14．全文围绕卡车司机李伟在事故中的英雄行为展开，讲述了他如何阻止事故发生、保护他人安全的故事，因此主旨是介绍事故中的英雄司机。 拓展提升 一、完型填空。 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。 二、 任务型阅读 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 When we talk about helping others, many people think it needs money or great power. 1 In fact, kindness lies in small daily acts that everyone can do. In our school life, we can easily find people around us who need help. 2 For example, we can lend a hand to classmates who struggle with their lessons, or cheer up friends who feel upset and lonely. Volunteering is another meaningful way to support those in need. On weekends, many students join community groups. 3 Spending time with them brings warmth and makes their life less boring. Besides, we know about people living a hard life in faraway areas. We can give away our unused books, clothes and stationery. 4 They will help poor children in mountain areas keep learning and growing happily. Helping others never means losing something. 5 It also makes our hearts full of joy and teaches us to value what we have. A．We should buy expensive presents for people in need. B．These simple gifts are still useful and full of our love. C．It actually brings us happiness and valuable life experience. D．However, this idea is not completely right. E．You may wonder what small things you can do to help others. F．We can stay with lonely old people and listen to their stories. 【答案】1．D 2．E 3．F 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要围绕“帮助他人”这一主题，纠正了人们的错误认知，阐述了帮助他人的方式与意义。 【详解】1．前文“When we talk about helping others, many people think it needs money or great power.”提到很多人认为帮助别人需要钱或能力；后文“In fact, kindness lies in small daily acts that everyone can do.”提到善意在小事中，所以此处表示转折，选项D“然而，这个想法并不完全正确。”符合语境。 2．前文“In our school life, we can easily find people around us who need help.”提到在学校生活中，我们很容易找到周围需要帮助的人；后文“For example, we can lend a hand to classmates who struggle with their lessons, or cheer up friends who feel upset and lonely.”举例了在学校里能做的帮助他人的小事，所以此处需要过渡句引出“能做的小事”，选项E“你可能想知道你能做些什么小事情来帮助别人。”承接前文，并引出下文的例子，符合语境。 3．前文“On weekends, many students join community groups.”提到许多学生在周末参加社区志愿团体；后文“Spending time with them brings warmth and makes their life less boring.”提到与他们共度时光会带来温暖，让他们的生活不那么无聊，可知此处应提到和谁共度时光，选项F“我们可以和孤独的老人待在一起，听他们的故事。”符合语境。 4．前文“We can give away our unused books, clothes and stationery.”提到捐赠不用的书籍、衣服和文具；后文“They will help poor children in mountain areas keep learning and growing happily.”提到它们将帮助山区的贫困儿童继续快乐地学习和成长，此处应和前文提到的捐赠物品有关，选项B“这些简单的礼物仍然有用，充满了我们的爱。”符合语境。 5．前文“Helping others never means losing something.”提到帮助别人不是失去什么；后文“It also makes our heart full of joy and teaches us to value what we have.”提到帮助别人会带来快乐，选项C“它实际上给我们带来了幸福和宝贵的生活经验。”阐述了帮助他人的真正意义，符合语境。 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题或翻译画线部分。 The “Go West” programme is a voluntary service programme which sends college graduates (毕业生) to work in less developed areas in China for 1 to 3 years. This national programme covers education, medical care, farming technology and so on. Many areas have benefited from the programme since it started in 2003, and Sheyit is among them. Sheyit Primary School is a faraway village school in Xinjiang. Thanks to the “Go West” programme, many young graduates have arrived here to help. Although they come from different places across China, they all share the same wish: to bring hope and knowledge to the children and lead them to a brighter future in this way. Those volunteer teachers at Sheyit Primary School devote (奉献) themselves fully to teaching the children and taking good care of them. They set clear rules in class and expect students to finish homework on time. They find that many parents are busy herding (放牧) animals and have little time to help their children with homework. The teachers work extra (额外的) hours so that they can help the students with their study. “This is where I find the true meaning of my life,” a volunteer teacher here said. “When I see my students grow through my lessons, their progress becomes my honour.” The students also greatly treasure their teachers’ teaching and care. They describe their teachers as being like the sun. They love going to school so much that some even come on weekends to study! Now all of them dream big and study hard towards their dreams. “When active students meet hard-working and caring teachers, improvement is only a matter of time.Our school is no longer the worst in the city,” said Jin Wenbin, the leader of Sheyit Primary School. Since 2023, the school has produced many graduates who have done very well in local exams and got into top middle schools in Xinjiang. 6．How does the programme help these less developed areas in China? 7．How long has the “Go West” programme been in service? 8．Why do volunteer teachers at Sheyit Primary School work extra hours? 9．According to Jin Wenbin, what is the reason for the school’s improvement? 10．If you plan to join this programme in the future, what will you do to help the students? 【答案】 1．By sending college graduates to work. 2．Since 2003. 3．To help students with their studies. 4．Active students and hard-working, caring teachers. 5．I will teach them knowledge and care for them. 【导语】本文主要介绍了“Go West”这一志愿服务项目，该项目自2003年启动以来，派遣大学毕业生到中国欠发达地区服务，新疆的Sheyit小学是受益地区之一。文章详细描述了志愿者教师在该校的教学付出、学生的积极反馈以及学校取得的显著进步。 【详解】 1．根据第一段“The ‘Go West’ programme is a voluntary service programme which sends college graduates to work in less developed areas in China”可知，该项目通过派遣大学毕业生到欠发达地区工作来帮助这些地区。答案是原文直接信息。 2．根据第一段“since it started in 2003”可知，“Go West”项目从2003年开始服务，至今已服务多年，回答可表述为“Since 2003”或结合时长描述。因此，答案是原文直接信息。 3．根据第三段“The teachers work extra hours so that they can help the students with their study”可知，志愿者老师加班的原因是帮助学生辅导学业。答案是原文直接信息。 4．根据最后一段“When active students meet hard-working and caring teachers, improvement is only a matter of time”可知，Jin Wenbin认为学校进步的原因是积极的学生遇到了勤奋且有爱心的老师。答案是原文直接信息。 5．本题为开放性问题。结合文章主题，志愿者主要通过教学和关爱帮助学生，合理即可。 三、语言运用 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 I often read about the children living in the mountains.

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. （ ）6．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. （ ）7．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. （ ）8．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．clear B．complex C．important D．surprising （ ）9．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. （ ）10．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 （C） It was a rainy evening in a small town in southern China. A heavy rainstorm hit the mountain road, and a large rock fell onto the highway, blocking half of the road. Li Wei, a 38-year-old truck driver, was driving home with his 10-year-old daughter after a long day’s work. He was driving slowly on the right lane when he noticed two cars ahead suddenly disappear around the curve. Knowing something was wrong, he slowed down and stopped his truck right away. After getting out of the truck, Li Wei saw the huge rock blocking the road. His truck was only 10 meters away from the danger. “If I had kept driving, we would have hit the rock for sure,” he said later. Li Wei didn’t hesitate. He asked his daughter to stay in the truck and call the police, while he tried to stop the coming cars. At first, he used his truck’s warning lights and waved his arms, but some drivers didn’t see him in the rain. Two cars almost hit the rock because they were driving too fast. Then Li Wei took out his bright flashlight and stood in the middle of the road, waving and shouting loudly to every car that came by. Soon, the first car stopped. Then more and more drivers slowed down and stopped. Some drivers even got out to help move small stones away from the road. About 20 minutes later, the police and road workers arrived. They thanked Li Wei for saving so many lives. “In that moment, I didn’t think about myself. I just wanted to stop as many cars as possible and keep everyone safe,” Li Wei said. （ ）11．What can we know from Paragraph 2? A．The color of Li Wei’s truck. B．The place Li Wei was going to.

In our school life, we can easily find people around us who need help. 2 For example, we can lend a hand to classmates who struggle with their lessons, or cheer up friends who feel upset and lonely. Volunteering is another meaningful way to support those in need. On weekends, many students join community groups. 3 Spending time with them brings warmth and makes their life less boring. Besides, we know about people living a hard life in faraway areas.
