At the age of 16, Einstein always played with a group of mischievous (顽皮捣蛋的) kids. Because he was so busy playing, he didn’t study enough and failed his final exam.
One morning, when Einstein was holding a fishing rod (钓鱼竿) and was about to go fishing with his friends, his father stopped him and said calmly, “Einstein, you spent so much time playing that you failed your exam. I’m worried about your future.”
“What are you worried about? Jack and Robert also failed, but don’t they still get to go fishing?”
“My boy, you can’t think like that,” his dad said.
“There is a story that people tell in our hometown. I will tell it to you now.”
“There were two cats playing on a roof. One cat got caught off guard and fell down the chimney (烟囱) while holding the other cat. When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, one of the cats had soot (烟灰) on his face, while the other cat’s face was clean. Seeing the dirty cat, the clean cat thought its face must be dirty, so it quickly ran to the river and washed its face. The dirty cat saw the clean cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just swaggered down the street.”
“Einstein, no one can be your ‘mirror’. You have to think for yourself. If you just do what everyone else does, you will never learn.”
Hearing this, Einstein put down his fishing rod and returned to his room. He decided to pay more attention to his studies and less attention to what his friends were doing. This allowed him to be successful.
39. What was Einstein’s main problem according to his father?
A. He was not good at math. B. He didn’t play often enough.
C. He always played with mischievous kids. D. He didn’t take his final exam.

A. The cat felt very confident. B. The cat felt foolish.
C. The cat ran very quickly. D. The cat was too fat to walk.
41. What lesson did Einstein learn from his father?
A. There are no shortcuts to success. B. Friends are like a mirror of ourselves.
C. Geniuses are one step away from being fools. D. Don’t look to others when deciding how to behave.
42. How did Einstein feel at the end of the story?
A. Disappointed by the fable. B. Ashamed about what he did.
C. Excited about fishing again. D. Angry about what his father said.

Jason Chin’s new book, The Universe in You, is popular with children. Here is a conversation with Chin.
Why did you start writing the book?
It started as a question: “How small is the smallest thing we know of?” That was followed by more questions about small things, so I started doing research. Out of that research came this book.
________
The first thing I did was find out what I’d put in the book, because there are lots of small things out there. Then I studied each of them. Talking to scientists about them was also necessary.
What is your favorite part of the research?
One of the scientists I talked to is from the University of Vermont. She took me on a tour of her lab, and I got to see the microscopes (显微镜) and learn how they work. It was fantastic.
Can you tell me what the title of the book means?
The closer you look at the universe, the more things look the same. People are made of cells (细胞), just like every other living thing. There are different kinds of things that make up the universe, which means we all have connection with the universe. I find that really interesting. I do hope readers will understand it. Also, they should understand how unique (独一无二的) they are.
43. Chin’s ________ gave him the idea of writing the book.
A. love for writing stories B. interest in small things
C. hope to help more children D. task of finishing his research
44. Which of the following can be put in the ________?
A. How did you do that research? B. Was it difficult to finish the research?
C. What have you learned along the way? D. Who gave you a hand with the research?
45. Which part of the research does Chin like best?
A. Talking to scientists. B. Doing research in the lab.
C. Visiting a scientist’s lab. D. Learning how to use microscopes.

The Grand Canal is another wonder made by ancient Chinese people besides the Great Wall. It is a man-made waterway that connects several Chinese cities. In fact, the Grand Canal is the longest man-made waterway in the world.
It started to be built in 486 BC. In the early 7th century, Emperor Yang in the Sui Dynasty chose the city Luoyang as the capital city. To make the transportation easier and faster, he asked people to expand the canal. Then, in order to connect the north and the south in the Yuan Dynasty, the canal was built and expanded again. After several years, the canal was finished. And it is still in use at present.
The Grand Canal experienced something terrible in modern history in China because of the wars. Luckily, with the help of the Chinese government, the conditions of the canal have improved a lot. Some parts of the canal have become wider and deeper. Shipping conditions have improved, too. Most importantly, in 2002, the Beijing—Hangzhou Grand Canal was included in one of the “South-to-North Water Transfer” three-line projects and became an important waterway.
Thanks to the Grand Canal, the cities along the canal have developed greatly in the history of the Chinese nation.
46. What is mentioned about the Grand Canal in Paragraph 2?
A. Its symbol. B. Its value. C. Its future. D. Its history.
47. What does the underlined word “it” in the text refer to?
A. The Grand Canal. B. The Great Wall.
C. A man-made waterway. D. The city Luoyang.
48. How does the writer show that “the conditions of the canal have improved a lot”?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparing facts. D. By answering questions.
49. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Wonders of Human History B. Cities along the Grand Canal
C. A Man-made Wonder in China D. Conditions of Canals in China

Travelling is something that many people love to do. It’s a fun way to meet new people and see different ways of living. When you travel, you get to try new foods, listen to all kinds of music, and visit beautiful places. You can even walk around the streets of a new town and feel its special spirit. Each experience adds color to your life, like painting a picture with many bright colors.
One big reason to travel is to meet people who don’t think like you. Each person has their own story, and when you share yours, something really cool can happen.
Travelling can also inspire you to change your life. Before I moved to Sicily, I travelled all over Italy. I fell in love with its culture and language. It made me want to learn Italian and make Sicily my home, and here I am now, living in Sicily.
Another wonderful thing about travelling is that it makes you a great storyteller. When you return home, you’ll have many fun stories to share with your friends and family.
Lastly, travelling helps you realize how much you love your family and friends. Sometimes, it takes a little distance to see how much you love your home town. So, get your bags ready and hit the road; there’s a whole world out there waiting for you!
50. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Travelling is the best way to meet new people.
B. Travelling can help people forget their problems.
C. Travelling can make people’s lives colorful.
D. Travelling allows people to improve their painting skills.
51. What does the underlined part “hit the road” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Start travelling. B. Stay in a safe place.
C. Be careful about the traffic. D. Walk on the road carefully.
52. Why did the writer write the text?
A. To share his travel experiences. B. To encourage readers to travel.
C. To give advice on travelling around the world. D. To compare the good and bad sides of travelling.

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。
Dear Belinda,
I get what you mean. You received a watch for your birthday and took it to school. The next day, a classmate bought the same watch as yours. Getting a watch for your birthday and then seeing a classmate with the exact same one the next day made you feel like that she was copying you. Now you are kind of embarrassed (尴尬的) and angry.
But let me share a story with you first. In my office, there is a workmate who loves hats just as much as I do. Sometimes, we arrive wearing similar (相似的) things, and at first, I had that thought too, “Am I copying him?” However, we soon realised that our shared interest was something to celebrate. We started pointing at each other’s hats and said, “Hey I like your hat!” This shared interest brought us closer, and now we often share other interests like English tea.
Your situation might be similar. Maybe your classmate truly likes the watch you have and has chosen to get one for herself. Or perhaps she simply has a similar taste. Either way, there’s no harm in getting close to her with an open mind. You can start by complimenting (称赞) her watch and asking if she likes it. This can be a good starting point for a conversation. And you might even end up becoming friends.
Best wishes,
David

Dr Kraus says something else, too. “Sometimes, people’s faces can ____18____ their feelings. They might not want to show they are sad or mad. But it is ____19____ to hide their feelings with their voices. That might be why ____20____ is the best way to know how someone actually feels.”

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了Michael Kraus博士的研究,表明倾听声音比观察面部表情更能准确地了解他人的真实感受,建议多倾听。
【11题详解】
句意:但可能有一个更好的选择:闭上眼只听。
根据前文看脸是一种方式,此处提出另一种方式,可知是更好的“choice选择”,表示听是另一种选项。其他选项“reason原因;matter事情;secret秘密”不符逻辑。
【12题详解】
句意:他做了一项研究。
根据后文“The research says”,可知他做了“study研究”,前后一致。其他选项“progress进步;opinion观点;situation情况”无依据,不符合题意。
【13题详解】
句意:这是了解他人感觉的最佳方式。
根据文章主题“how someone is feeling”,可知是了解他人“感觉”,“feel感觉”与主旨一致。其他选项“touch触摸;smile微笑;mind介意”偏离主题。
【14题详解】
句意:人们有很多方式展示他们的感觉。
根据后文“use words...make faces”,可知是“展示”感觉,“show展示”符合题意。其他选项“warn警告;hear听见;draw画”不合句意。
【15题详解】
句意:同时倾听和观察人们似乎很聪明。
根据后文“But this can...problems”,可知前文是看似好的做法,故“smart聪明”符合转折逻辑。其他选项“simple简单;serious严肃;sweet甜美”无法构成转折。
【16题详解】
句意:但这会导致问题。
根据后文“split your attention”,可知这会“cause导致”问题。根据语境,分散注意力是负面影响,其他选项“solve解决;leave离开;train训练”意思相反。

句意:你应该最关注哪部分?
根据固定搭配“pay attention to”,可知选“attention注意力”。其他选项“pleasure快乐;interest兴趣;message信息”搭配不当。

根据后文“not want to show”,可知脸会“hide隐藏”感觉。其他选项“hate讨厌;hurt伤害;hang悬挂”不合逻辑。
【19题详解】
句意:但用声音隐藏感觉更难。
根据前文脸能隐藏,此处转折强调声音不易控制,故“harder更难”。其他选项“easier更容易;wiser更明智;quieter更安静”逻辑相反。
【20题详解】
句意:这就是为什么倾听是最佳方式。
根据文章主旨“just listen”,可知“listening倾听”是最佳方式。根据语境,总结全文。其他选项“guessing猜测;writing写作;dreaming做梦”无关。

句意:如果你想说话,先吃完嘴里的东西再开口。
根据“If you want to say something”对应说话动作,“speaking up大声说/开口说话”符合语境。其他选项“making up编造;waking up醒来;standing up站起来”语意不符。

【30题详解】

At the age of 16, Einstein always played with a group of mischievous (顽皮捣蛋的) kids. Because he was so busy playing, he didn’t study enough and failed his final exam.
One morning, when Einstein was holding a fishing rod (钓鱼竿) and was about to go fishing with his friends, his father stopped him and said calmly, “Einstein, you spent so much time playing that you failed your exam. I’m worried about your future.”
“What are you worried about? Jack and Robert also failed, but don’t they still get to go fishing?”
“My boy, you can’t think like that,” his dad said.
“There is a story that people tell in our hometown. I will tell it to you now.”
“There were two cats playing on a roof. One cat got caught off guard and fell down the chimney (烟囱) while holding the other cat. When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, one of the cats had soot (烟灰) on his face, while the other cat’s face was clean. Seeing the dirty cat, the clean cat thought its face must be dirty, so it quickly ran to the river and washed its face. The dirty cat saw the clean cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just swaggered down the street.”
“Einstein, no one can be your ‘mirror’. You have to think for yourself. If you just do what everyone else does, you will never learn.”
Hearing this, Einstein put down his fishing rod and returned to his room. He decided to pay more attention to his studies and less attention to what his friends were doing. This allowed him to be successful.
39. What was Einstein’s main problem according to his father?
A. He was not good at math. B. He didn’t play often enough.
C. He always played with mischievous kids. D. He didn’t take his final exam.
40. What does the underlined word “swaggered” in the text show?
A. The cat felt very confident. B. The cat felt foolish.
C. The cat ran very quickly. D. The cat was too fat to walk.
41. What lesson did Einstein learn from his father?
A. There are no shortcuts to success. B. Friends are like a mirror of ourselves.
C. Geniuses are one step away from being fools. D. Don’t look to others when deciding how to behave.
42. How did Einstein feel at the end of the story?
A. Disappointed by the fable. B. Ashamed about what he did.
C. Excited about fishing again. D. Angry about what his father said.
【答案】39. C 40. A 41. D 42. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了16岁的爱因斯坦整日和顽皮的孩子玩耍、荒废学业,父亲通过讲述两只猫掉烟囱的故事,启发爱因斯坦不能以他人为镜子、要独立思考,爱因斯坦听后改正错误,专注学习最终获得成功的故事。
【39题详解】
第一段“At the age of 16, Einstein always played with a group of mischievous (顽皮捣蛋的) kids. Because he was so busy playing, he didn’t study enough and failed his final exam”,爱因斯坦的主要问题是总是和一群顽皮的孩子一起玩,导致荒废学业。
【40题详解】
第六段“The dirty cat saw the clean cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just swaggered down the street”,脏脸猫不知道自己脸脏,以为没有问题,因此状态十分放松自信,“swaggered”意为大摇大摆地走,显示了猫当时非常自信(confident)的状态。
【41题详解】
第七段父亲的话“Einstein, no one can be your ‘mirror’. You have to think for yourself. If you just do what everyone else does, you will never learn”,爱因斯坦学到的教训是:不能一味参照他人的行为来决定自己该怎么做。
【42题详解】
最后一段“Hearing this, Einstein put down his fishing rod and returned to his room. He decided to pay more attention to his studies and less attention to what his friends were doing”,爱因斯坦认识到了自己之前贪玩犯错的行为,为此感到羞愧才会做出改变。

Jason Chin’s new book, The Universe in You, is popular with children. Here is a conversation with Chin.
Why did you start writing the book?
It started as a question: “How small is the smallest thing we know of?” That was followed by more questions about small things, so I started doing research. Out of that research came this book.
________
The first thing I did was find out what I’d put in the book, because there are lots of small things out there. Then I studied each of them. Talking to scientists about them was also necessary.
What is your favorite part of the research?
One of the scientists I talked to is from the University of Vermont. She took me on a tour of her lab, and I got to see the microscopes (显微镜) and learn how they work. It was fantastic.
Can you tell me what the title of the book means?
The closer you look at the universe, the more things look the same. People are made of cells (细胞), just like every other living thing. There are different kinds of things that make up the universe, which means we all have connection with the universe. I find that really interesting. I do hope readers will understand it. Also, they should understand how unique (独一无二的) they are.
43. Chin’s ________ gave him the idea of writing the book.
A. love for writing stories B. interest in small things
C. hope to help more children D. task of finishing his research
44. Which of the following can be put in the ________?

The Grand Canal is another wonder made by ancient Chinese people besides the Great Wall. It is a man-made waterway that connects several Chinese cities. In fact, the Grand Canal is the longest man-made waterway in the world.
It started to be built in 486 BC. In the early 7th century, Emperor Yang in the Sui Dynasty chose the city Luoyang as the capital city. To make the transportation easier and faster, he asked people to expand the canal. Then, in order to connect the north and the south in the Yuan Dynasty, the canal was built and expanded again. After several years, the canal was finished. And it is still in use at present.
The Grand Canal experienced something terrible in modern history in China because of the wars. Luckily, with the help of the Chinese government, the conditions of the canal have improved a lot. Some parts of the canal have become wider and deeper. Shipping conditions have improved, too. Most importantly, in 2002, the Beijing—Hangzhou Grand Canal was included in one of the “South-to-North Water Transfer” three-line projects and became an important waterway.
Thanks to the Grand Canal, the cities along the canal have developed greatly in the history of the Chinese nation.
46. What is mentioned about the Grand Canal in Paragraph 2?
A. Its symbol. B. Its value. C. Its future. D. Its history.
47. What does the underlined word “it” in the text refer to?
A. The Grand Canal. B. The Great Wall.
C. A man-made waterway. D. The city Luoyang.
48. How does the writer show that “the conditions of the canal have improved a lot”?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving examples.
C. By comparing facts. D. By answering questions.
49. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Wonders of Human History B. Cities along the Grand Canal
C. A Man-made Wonder in China D. Conditions of Canals in China
【答案】46. D 47. A 48. B 49. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了中国大运河这一古代奇迹。文章讲述了大运河的历史沿革(从公元前486年开始修建,历经隋朝、元朝的扩建),近代因战争遭受的破坏以及现代在中国政府帮助下的修复和改善(如南水北调工程),最后强调了大运河对中国沿线城市发展的巨大贡献。
【46题详解】
第二段中出现了大量表示时间的词汇,如“486 BC”、“early 7th century”、“Sui Dynasty”、“Yuan Dynasty”等,并描述了大运河在不同朝代的修建和扩建过程。这些内容主要讲述的是大运河的历史沿革。
【47题详解】
根据划线词所在句子的前一句“In fact, the Grand Canal is the longest man-made waterway in the world.”及全文内容可知,全文围绕大运河展开说明,划线词it在第二段开头,承接第一段的说明对象,因此it指代大运河。
【48题详解】
文章第三段提到“the conditions of the canal have improved a lot”后,紧接着列举了“Some parts of the canal have become wider and deeper.”(部分河段变得更宽更深)和“Shipping conditions have improved, too.”(航运条件也改善了)的具体情况。作者是通过举例子的方式来证明条件改善了的。
【49题详解】
文章第一段开篇点题,指出大运河是古代中国人创造的奇迹(wonder),随后介绍了其历史、现代改善情况及对城市发展的作用。全文围绕大运河这一“中国的人工奇迹”展开。A项太宽泛,B项和D项只涵盖了部分内容。

Travelling is something that many people love to do. It’s a fun way to meet new people and see different ways of living. When you travel, you get to try new foods, listen to all kinds of music, and visit beautiful places. You can even walk around the streets of a new town and feel its special spirit. Each experience adds color to your life, like painting a picture with many bright colors.
One big reason to travel is to meet people who don’t think like you. Each person has their own story, and when you share yours, something really cool can happen.
Travelling can also inspire you to change your life. Before I moved to Sicily, I travelled all over Italy. I fell in love with its culture and language. It made me want to learn Italian and make Sicily my home, and here I am now, living in Sicily.
Another wonderful thing about travelling is that it makes you a great storyteller. When you return home, you’ll have many fun stories to share with your friends and family.
Lastly, travelling helps you realize how much you love your family and friends. Sometimes, it takes a little distance to see how much you love your home town. So, get your bags ready and hit the road; there’s a whole world out there waiting for you!
50. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Travelling is the best way to meet new people.
B. Travelling can help people forget their problems.
C. Travelling can make people’s lives colorful.
D. Travelling allows people to improve their painting skills.
51. What does the underlined part “hit the road” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Start travelling. B. Stay in a safe place.
C. Be careful about the traffic. D. Walk on the road carefully.
52. Why did the writer write the text?
A. To share his travel experiences. B. To encourage readers to travel.
C. To give advice on travelling around the world. D. To compare the good and bad sides of travelling.
【答案】50. C 51. A 52. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了旅行的好处,包括丰富生活色彩、结识不同的人、激励生活改变、成为好的故事讲述者以及让人更珍惜家乡,最后鼓励大家去旅行。
【50题详解】
第一段明确指出:“Each experience adds color to your life, like painting a picture with many bright colors.”,说明旅行能让人们的生活变得丰富多彩。A项“best way”过于绝对;B项文中未提及忘记烦恼;D项是对比喻义的误解,并非真的提高绘画技巧。
【51题详解】

阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)。
Dear Belinda,
I get what you mean. You received a watch for your birthday and took it to school. The next day, a classmate bought the same watch as yours. Getting a watch for your birthday and then seeing a classmate with the exact same one the next day made you feel like that she was copying you. Now you are kind of embarrassed (尴尬的) and angry.
But let me share a story with you first. In my office, there is a workmate who loves hats just as much as I do. Sometimes, we arrive wearing similar (相似的) things, and at first, I had that thought too, “Am I copying him?” However, we soon realised that our shared interest was something to celebrate. We started pointing at each other’s hats and said, “Hey I like your hat!” This shared interest brought us closer, and now we often share other interests like English tea.
Your situation might be similar. Maybe your classmate truly likes the watch you have and has chosen to get one for herself. Or perhaps she simply has a similar taste. Either way, there’s no harm in getting close to her with an open mind. You can start by complimenting (称赞) her watch and asking if she likes it. This can be a good starting point for a conversation. And you might even end up becoming friends.
Best wishes,
David
