The animals were quite confused (困惑的). One by one, they went to look at the picture. None of them could see it in the mirror, and they all said they could see a different animal instead. While the animals fought over who was lying, the cat shook his head and laughed. “You’re all missing the point!” he said. “The problem was where you were standing. When you stood right in front of the mirror, you blocked (挡住) the beautiful view behind you. All you could see was yourself!” 21. Why were the animals excited after hearing the cat’s words? A. Because they thought the cat was telling a joke. B. Because they wanted to find the hole in the wall. C. Because they wanted to see the picture in the mirror. D.

Put the following information into the right order according to the text. a. The lion went to the artist’s house. b. The donkey saw himself in the mirror. c.

The Artist’s Cat B. The Picture in the Mirror C. The Animals’ Fight D. The Donkey’s lie about the picture 【答案】21. C 22. C 23. A 24. B 25. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述动物们因为站在镜子前挡住了后面的画，因只看到自身倒影而认为猫在撒谎的故事，揭示了一个道理：很多时候，我们因为所处的位置(或立场)限制了自己的视野，使我们无法看到真相(或更大的图景)，却错误地认为是别人在欺骗我们。这告诫我们，在指责他人之前，应先反思自身视角的局限性。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据“This excited the animals and they wanted to see the picture.”可知，猫告诉动物们镜子像墙上的洞，从中能看到美丽的画，这让动物们兴奋不已，核心原因是它们想亲眼看到镜子里的画。故选C。 【22题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“None of them could see it in the mirror,”并结合上下文可知，动物们听猫说能从镜子里看到画，于是纷纷前往查看，但都没看到“它”，反而看到了自己。此处“it”指代前文反复提到的“the picture”。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文情节发展顺序梳理：根据第一段“An artist painted... He hung it in his house,”可知，画家先画了画并挂在墙上，c排第一；根据第二段“This excited the animals and they wanted to see the picture.”可知，猫向其他动物讲述画和镜子的事，让动物们兴奋，e排第二；根据第三段“the donkey... When he looked in the mirror, all he could see was a donkey.”可知，驴率先不信，前去查看，在镜子里看到了自己，b排第三；根据第三段“The lion was surprised, so he went to have a look too.”可知，驴告知其他动物猫在撒谎，狮子感到惊讶，也前去查看，a排第四；再根据第五段“While the animals fought over who was lying,”可知，动物们查看后都只看到自己，相互争执谁在撒谎，d排第五。因此，正确顺序为：c-e-b-a-d。故选A。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。最后一段中，当动物们因误解相互争执时，猫摇着头笑了，并点出问题关键——动物们因站位错误挡住了画，才只看到自己。猫能清晰看透问题本质，还能准确解释原因，体现了它的“聪明”。故选B。 【25题详解】 最佳标题题。文章围绕“镜子中的画”展开：猫告知动物们通过镜子(比喻为墙洞)能看到画→动物们因站位不当，未能从镜子中看到画而产生误解→猫解释看不到画的原因；选项B“镜子中的画”是贯穿全文的核心线索，涵盖了故事的关键元素(画、镜子、动物们的冲突)，适合作为文章的标题。故选B。 C “How can I buy the fridge magnets (冰箱贴) of the phoenix coronet (凤冠)?” This is the most asked question at the gift shop of the National Museum of China in Beijing.

Now, scientists from China and Germany have made an exciting discovery (发现). It might help answer this question. The scientists found a planet named Kepler-725c by using a special way called the Transit Timing Variation (TTV) technique (技术). This planet is a “super-earth”. It is about 10 times as big as the earth. It is in a special area called the “habitable zone” around a host star similar to the sun. This area is special because the temperature there is suitable for water to exist (存在), which is necessary for life. Kepler-725c is about 2,472 light years away from us. It takes 207.5 days to go around its host star. The TTV technique is special because it can help find new planets by simply studying the TTV signals (信号) of other known planets near them. The scientists are excited about this discovery, but they say they need more studies to see if (是否) humans could live on Kepler-725c like on earth. Actually, there are still more planets waiting for humans to discover. Fill in the blanks according to the passage. An exciting discovery—Kepler-725c Size It is much ____46____ than the earth.
