She took a cardboard box and put some soft grass in it as a 3 . Every day, Monica brought it fresh water and small pieces of fruit. At first, the bird was 4 and tried to hide when she got close. But after a few days, it got used to her presence.
Monica’s mom helped her 5 its wing gently with bandages. They waited 6 for it to get better. One morning, when Monica opened the box, the bird flapped its wings and jumped out. It flew a short distance and then stopped, as if saying “thank you.”
Watching it fly back to the 7 made Monica happy. This experience taught her that even small acts of kindness can help 8 nature’s creatures. Now, Monica always keeps an eye out for animals in need and does her best to 9 them. It’s wonderful to see animals live 10 in their own homes.

Passage 1
(25-26八年级上·广东佛山·期中)请通读下面短文,掌握其大意,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
Last summer, Monica noticed a small bird with a broken wing under the old oak tree in her yard. Its feathers looked 1 and dirty, and it couldn’t move. Monica felt sorry for it and decided to 2 it.
She took a cardboard box and put some soft grass in it as a 3 . Every day, Monica brought it fresh water and small pieces of fruit. At first, the bird was 4 and tried to hide when she got close. But after a few days, it got used to her presence.
Monica’s mom helped her 5 its wing gently with bandages. They waited 6 for it to get better. One morning, when Monica opened the box, the bird flapped its wings and jumped out. It flew a short distance and then stopped, as if saying “thank you.”
Watching it fly back to the 7 made Monica happy. This experience taught her that even small acts of kindness can help 8 nature’s creatures. Now, Monica always keeps an eye out for animals in need and does her best to 9 them. It’s wonderful to see animals live 10 in their own homes. She understands the importance of protecting all living things in nature.
1.A.bright B.wet C.smooth D.colorful
2.A.help B.catch C.follow D.leave
3.A.toy B.bed C.tool D.plate
4.A.brave B.afraid C.lazy D.silly

9.A.disturb B.avoid C.protect D.forget

【答案】
1.B 2.A 3.B 4.B 5.C 6.A 7.B 8.B 9.C 10.A
【导语】本文讲述女孩莫妮卡救助一只翅膀受伤的小鸟的故事,文章传递爱护、保护自然小动物的主旨。
1.句意:它的羽毛看起来又湿又脏,并且无法动弹。
后文并列词“and dirty”说明羽毛状态不佳,“wet”意为湿的,和脏构成糟糕状态;bright意为“明亮的”、smooth意为“顺滑的”、colorful意为“多彩的”均不符合小鸟受伤狼狈的语境。
2.句意:莫妮卡很同情它,决定救助它。
前文小鸟翅膀受伤不能动,Monica felt sorry for it,因此选择“help”救助;catch意为“抓住”、follow意为“跟随”、leave意为“离开”均不符合心疼小鸟的文意。
3.句意:她拿来纸箱,铺了柔软的草当作它的小窝。
“put some soft grass in it”铺垫柔软干草是给小鸟做“bed”窝;toy意为“玩具”、tool意为“工具”、plate意为“盘子”,都不能铺干草充当栖息处。
4.句意:一开始小鸟十分害怕,她一靠近就试图躲开。
后文“tried to hide when she got close”小鸟躲藏,对应“afraid”害怕;brave意为“勇敢的”、lazy意为“懒惰的”、silly意为“傻的”,和躲藏行为矛盾。
5.句意:莫妮卡的妈妈帮她用绷带细心照料小鸟受伤的翅膀。
固定动词短语look after表示照料,贴合给小鸟包扎疗伤的语境;look for意为“寻找”、look at意为“单纯看”、look into意为“调查”,都无照顾疗伤含义。
6.句意:她们耐心等待小鸟慢慢痊愈。
等待小鸟康复是漫长过程,“patiently”耐心地;angrily意为“生气地”、carelessly意为“粗心地”、suddenly意为“突然地”,均不符合悉心照料等待康复的语境。
7.句意:看着它飞回天空,莫妮卡十分开心。
小鸟康复后会飞回“sky”天空;house意为“房屋”、box意为“纸箱”、ground意为“地面”,都不是鸟类自由活动的地方。
8.句意:这段经历教会她,哪怕微小的善意举动,都可以保护自然界的生灵。
全文救助受伤小鸟,对应“protect”保护;hurt意为“伤害”、feed意为“喂食”、control意为“控制”,与文章主旨相悖。
9.句意:如今莫妮卡总会留意有需要的小动物,并尽全力保护它们。
固定搭配do one’s best to do sth. 表示尽某人最大努力做某事,结合文章爱护野生动物主旨,“protect”保护;disturb意为“打扰”、avoid意为“避开”、forget意为“遗忘”,不符合文章传递的爱护自然的观点。
10.句意:看见动物能在属于自己的家园里自由生活,是一件美好的事。
动物回归自然是“freely”自由地生活;secretly意为“秘密地”、busily意为“忙碌地”、sadly意为“难过地”,都贴合不了回归自然的快乐氛围。
Passage 2
(25-26八年级上·辽宁丹东·期中)阅读短文,掌握其大意,然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Nature is full of amazing plants and animals.
For example, the redwood tree is one of the tallest trees in the world. They can live 1 than 2,000 years. And the cheetah is the fastest land animal. It can run at a speed of over 100 km/h. Unlike the cheetah, the blue whale is the 2 animal on earth. It can weigh as much as 200 tons.
Bamboo is also amazing. It 3 faster than most plants—almost one meter in a day. Pandas love eating bamboo, and people use it to make many things, like baskets and other 4 .
All these plants and animals are important to our ecosystem. We must 5 them. Remember: we 6 the earth with them. If we don’t protect them, many species will die forever. Each creature (生物), big or small, has a 7 to play. They provide (提供) us with food or keep our 8 healthy.
Our actions 9 affect nature (大自然). If we 10 too many trees, soil (土壤) will wash away slowly . We can’t have a healthy planet without these amazing plants and animals. Protecting them is important for our future.

1.B 2.C 3.A 4.A 5.B 6.D 7.A 8.A 9.B 10.C
【导语】本文介绍了自然界中几种奇特的动植物,讲述它们各自的特点,并强调动植物对生态系统至关重要,人类应当保护自然生物、守护我们共同的地球。
1.句意:它们可以存活两千多年。
根据原文“live than 2,000 years”,此处表示存活时间更长,用longer;shorter“更短的”、worse“更糟糕的”、better“更好的”均不符合原句语境。
2.句意:而蓝鲸是地球上最重的动物。
根据原文“It can weigh as much as 200 tons”,通过体重体现体型最重,用heaviest;slowest“最慢的”、fastest“最快的”、lightest“最轻的”均和原句体重描述不符。
3.句意:它比大多数植物长得都快,一天几乎能长一米。
根据后文“almost one meter in a day”,描述竹子的生长速度,用grows;becomes“变得”、gets“得到”、rises“上升”均不能表示植物生长。
4.句意:熊猫爱吃竹子,人们还用它制作很多物品,比如篮子和其他工具。
根据原文“make many things”,竹子可用来制作各类用具,用tools;stones“石头”、water“水”、air“空气”均不符合原句制作物品的语境。
5.句意:我们必须保护它们。
根据后文“If we don’t protect them”,前后原词复现,倡导保护动植物,用protect;respect“尊重”、pack“打包”、add“添加”均不符合原句主旨。
6.句意:记住:我们和它们共享同一个地球。
根据原文人与自然共处的内容,share the earth表示“共享地球”,用share;connect“连接”、communicate“交流”、touch“触碰”均不符合原句含义。
7.句意:每一种生物,无论大小,都有其作用。
根据固定搭配play a role 表示“发挥作用”,用role;game“游戏”、joke“玩笑”、match“比赛”均无法构成该搭配。
8.句意:它们为我们提供食物,或是维护我们星球的健康。
根据全文围绕地球自然生态展开,用planet;country“国家”、town“城镇”、community“社区”均不符合原句范围。
9.句意:我们的行为会直接影响大自然。
结合下文人类行为对自然造成的改变,此处指行为带来直接影响,用directly;freshly“刚刚”、hardly“几乎不”、quickly“快速地”均不符合原句逻辑。
10.句意:如果我们砍伐太多树木,土壤会慢慢流失。
根据原文“trees”以及土壤流失的后果,cut down trees为固定搭配,表示“砍树”,用cut down;take out“取出”、care about“关心”、look for“寻找”均不符合原句场景。
Passage 3
(25-26八年级上·江西南昌·期中)请先阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入相应空白处的最佳选项。
Everyone knows bees are busy. In English, there is even a saying and that is “as busy as a bee”. However, 1 people knew about how bees play. Some scientists from Queen Mary University of London have 2 the truth.
The scientists did some tests on bees “playing” with different things. They wanted to know how bees could 3 after a busy day. After studying the tests they found 4 interesting. The way the bees played with the balls was a little like how humans (人类) play. The bees especially liked playing with wooden balls. 5 bees rolled (滚动) more balls than old bees. Adult male (雄的) bees 6 more time playing with the balls than female (雌的) bees did.
There were 45 bees in the tests. They had two choices 7 . The first one was to fly or walk directly to eat sweet food. The second one was to eat sweet food 8 flying or walking around some small colorful balls. Most of the bees chose to play with the balls first and then eat sweet food.
A scientist said the bees have 9 like happiness and sadness, and that they also love to play. She also said those insects were 10 than we think. So if you think insects are silly (愚蠢的), you are wrong.

【答案】
1.A 2.C 3.A 4.D 5.B 6.C 7.B 8.A 9.B 10.D
【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家通过实验发现蜜蜂不仅忙碌,还会玩耍放松,拥有情感,比人类想象的更聪明。
1.句意:然而,几乎没人知道蜜蜂如何玩耍。
However表示转折,此处指几乎没人知道蜜蜂如何玩耍;people为集合名词,用few表否定意义。a few“一些”(肯定,可数),little“很少”(否定,不可数),a little“一些”(肯定,不可数),语意或用法不符。
2.句意:伦敦玛丽女王大学的一些科学家发现了真相。
根据“the truth”及科学实验背景,可知是查明真相,用found out。looked out“小心”,worked out“解决”,went out“出去”,语意不通。
3.句意:他们想知道蜜蜂忙碌一天后如何放松。
后文提到after a busy day(忙碌一天后),前文提到科学家发现了蜜蜂玩耍的真相,玩耍是为了放松,relax符合文意。eat“吃”,sleep“睡”,fly“飞”,不符合语境。
4.句意:研究测试后他们发现了一些有趣的事情。
这是肯定句,此处指科学家发现了有趣的事,something用于肯定句,表“某事”,符合语境。nothing“没事”,表否定,anything“任何事”,用于否定/疑问句,someone“某人”,指人,用法或语意不符。
5.句意:年轻蜜蜂比老蜜蜂滚更多球。
后文对比的是old bees(老蜜蜂),对应词是young(年轻的)。Small“小的”,Tall“高的”,Big“大的”,无法构成对比。
6.句意:成年雄蜂比雌蜂花费更多时间玩球。
固定搭配spend +时间+doing sth(花时间做某事),符合“雄蜂花更多时间玩球”的文意,应用spent。其他选项搭配不当。
7.句意:它们有两个选择要做。
have choices to make是固定结构,不定式to make作后置定语修饰choices(要做的选择)。其他选项形式错误。
8.句意:第二种是在飞行或绕着一些彩色小球走动后吃甜食。
两种选择:第一种是直接去吃甜食,第二种是绕着小球玩耍(飞/走)之后再吃,对应后文“大多数蜜蜂选择先玩再吃”,after表示“在……之后”,符合逻辑。before“在……之前”,with“和”,without“没有”,逻辑不通。
9.句意:科学家说蜜蜂有像快乐、悲伤那样的情感。
happiness and sadness(开心和悲伤)都属于情绪,feelings“情绪”,符合文意。activities“活动”,differences“差异”,results“结果”,归类错误。
10.句意:她还说那些昆虫比我们想的更聪明。
后文说“如果你觉得昆虫愚蠢,那你错了”,推出本句意思是“昆虫比我们想的更聪明”,smarter更聪明的,符合。stronger“更强壮”,friendlier“更友好”,funnier“更有趣”,不符合文意。
Passage 4
(25-26八年级上·河北石家庄·期中)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
This summer, I had the most exciting vacation ever. On July 5th, my parents and I 1 to Qingdao by high-speed train.

Its wing was broken, and it couldn’t 5 . I carefully put 6 in a paper box and took it back to the hotel.
During the next week, I looked 7 it with my dad’s help. We fed it fish and gave it fresh water. 8 the bird got stronger, and it began to flap (拍打) its wings. Finally, on the last day of our stay, we 9 it fly into the blue sky. Watching it disappear (消失), I felt both happy and a little sad.
That moment taught me 10 : helping others, even small birds, can make our own lives richer.

【导语】本文讲述作者暑假去青岛旅行时,救助了一只受伤的小鸟并放归自然的故事,体现了帮助他人能丰富自己生活的道理。
1.句意:7月5日,我和父母乘高铁去了青岛。
根据“by high-speed train”可知,是乘坐高铁去某地。went to表示“去了”,与交通工具搭配自然。
2.句意:那里的海水比我预期的更蓝,并且沙滩金黄洁净。
空后出现“than”,提示用比较级。且much常修饰比较级,blue的比较级是bluer。
3.句意:每天早晨我都早起捡贝壳。
全文叙述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,应用过去式woke。
4.句意:一天,当我沿着海岸走的时候,我看到一只受伤的小鸟。
while引导时间状语从句通常用进行时,用来表示主句动作发生时的持续背景;整篇故事讲述过去发生的事,从句用过去进行时was walking。
5.句意:它的翅膀断了,不能飞。
couldn’t是情态动词,后接动词原形。fly是原形,符合语法。
6.句意:我小心地把它放进一个纸盒里,带回了酒店。
此处指前文提到的“a tiny injured bird”,即指代单数动物,应用it。
7.句意:接下来的一周,我在爸爸的帮助下照顾它。
look after意为“照顾”,符合救助小鸟后需要照料的情节。
8.句意:所以小鸟变强壮了,开始拍打翅膀。
前文“我们喂它食物、给它水”是原因,后文“小鸟变强壮”是结果,用So“所以”引出结果。
9.句意:终于,在我们行程的最后一天,我们放走了它,让它飞向湛蓝的天空。
let sb. do sth.意为“让某人做某事”,此处表示把康复的小鸟放飞。
10.句意:那一刻教会了我一些事:帮助他人能让生活更丰富。
此处是肯定句,表示“这件事教会了我一些道理”,something“某事”用于肯定句,符合语境。

【导语】本文介绍自然界中形态、栖息环境各不相同的动物,描写了多种动物的生活习性与对人类的帮助,最后呼吁人类保护动物、善待动物朋友。
1.句意:有些动物体型很大,比如大象。
后文举例大象,对应体型庞大的描述,big“大的”符合语境,small“小的”、long“长的”均不符。
2.句意:有些动物体型很小,比如蚂蚁。
前文提示small小型动物,ants“蚂蚁”是微型动物,cheetahs“猎豹”、lions“狮子”均体型偏大,不符。
3.句意:还有一些生活在海洋里,比如蓝鲸。
蓝鲸栖息于海洋,ocean“海洋”符合语境,room“房间”、mountain“山脉”均不符。
4.句意:有些动物十分可爱又有趣。
后文猴子主动找人要食物,体现动物十分有意思,interesting“有趣的”符合语境,strong“强壮的”、quiet“安静的”均不符。
5.句意:它们喜欢吃香蕉、苹果、橙子和其他水果。
空格前后均为水果,apples“苹果”属于水果,rice“米饭”、vegetables“蔬菜”均不符。

主语elephants是复数,对应形容词性物主代词their“它们的”,his“他的”、her“她的”均不符。

狗的常见作用是看家,houses“房屋”符合语境,parks“公园”、zoos“动物园”均不符。

10.句意:甚至一些小鸟能唱出动听的歌,让人们开心。
固定搭配make sb. happy意为使某人开心,make“使、让”符合语境,take“带走”、help“帮助”均不符。

【导语】本文讲述科学家发现蜜蜂不仅忙碌,还会玩耍。实验表明蜜蜂有情感,懂得放松,比人类想象的更聪明,改变了人们的传统认知。
1.句意:然而,几乎没人知道蜜蜂会玩。
根据“no one”及语境,可知此处表“几乎没有人”的意思,词组almost no one意为“几乎没人”,almost“几乎”,符合题意。most“大多数”;already“已经”;hardly“几乎不”,均不符合题意。
2.句意:科学家发现了真相。
根据语境,正确选项表示科学探索的结果,the truth“真相”,可与find out构成词组find out the truth意为“发现真相”,found out“发现”,符合题意。looked out“小心”;worked out“解决”;went out“出去”,均不符合题意。
3.句意:他们做了测试,观察蜜蜂在忙碌一天之后会如何放松。
根据下文“played with balls”,可知玩耍属于放松方式,relax“放松”,符合逻辑。eat“吃”;sleep“睡”;fly“飞”,均与下文玩耍的语境不符。
4.句意:他们发现了一些有趣的事。
根据肯定句语境,可知表示“某事”用something。nothing“没什么”;anything“任何事”;everything“一切”,均不符合题意。
5.句意:年轻蜜蜂比老蜜蜂滚球多。
根据“old ones”,可知对应词为Young,意为“年轻的”。Small“小的”;Tall“高的”;Big“大的”,均不符合语境。
6.句意:雄性蜜蜂比雌性蜜蜂花更多时间玩耍。
本句的主语是bees,此处表示花费时间,根据“more time playing”,可知spent“花费”,结构符合。took“拿”;gave“给”;were“是”,均不符合题意。
7.句意:蜜蜂有两个选择要做。
根据语境,此处表示将要做的选择,由“choices”可知后接不定式to make作后置定语。make“做”,动词原形;made“做了”,动词的过去式;making动名词,均不符合不定式结构。
8.句意:它们可以直接去获取食物,也可以在玩球之后再获取食物。
根据“play first”,可知食物在玩之后,after“之后”,符合逻辑。before“之前”;with“和”;without“没有”,均不符合逻辑。
9.句意:一位科学家说,蜜蜂拥有像快乐这样的情感,而且它们喜欢玩耍。
根据“happiness”,可知属于feelings“情感”的范畴。activities“活动”;differences“不同”;results“结果”,均不符合happiness的属性。
10.句意:那些昆虫比我们想象的要更聪明。
根据会玩且有情感,可知体现智力高,smarter“更聪明的”,符合逻辑。stronger“更强的”;friendlier“更友好的”;kinder“更善良的”,均未体现智力层面的发现。

【导语】本文讲述了作者朋友带作者去参观一棵七百多年的银杏树,介绍了树的历史及人们对其的敬仰,表达了作者对古树的赞叹。
1.句意:我的朋友朱决定带我去他祖父母的花园。
“decide to do sth.”为固定搭配,意为“决定做某事”,此处需用动词不定式to take作宾语。
2.句意:最后,我们在小花园前停了下来。
根据上文“We walked for 40 minutes, we arrived at Qiaojia Road.”可知,经过一段时间后“最终”到达了小花园,Finally“最后”符合语境。Really真正地;Actually实际上;Luckily幸运地,均不符合时间逻辑。
3.句意:“打扰一下,但是神奇的东西在哪里?”我问道。
根据前文朋友说“Here we are”,后文作者问“ where is the amazing thing”,作者跟着朋友去看令人惊奇的东西,但朋友最后停留在一个小花园,所以作者问东西在何处,此处句意发生了转折,but“但是”符合语境。and和;or或者;so所以,均无转折意味。
4.句意:朱说:“这一棵是不同的。”
根据上文“ginkgo trees are everywhere in our country”和后文“It’s over 700 years old.”可知,这棵树很特别,与其他银杏树不同,different“不同的”符合语境。tall高的;difficult困难的;boring无聊的,均不符合语境。
5.句意:清朝康熙年间,有人想砍倒它。
根据后文“Luckily, Zhang Xiyi ... it from the axe (斧头).”可知,有人想砍掉这棵树,但是被张曦义救了下来,此句为肯定句,someone“某人”符合语境。anyone任何人;nobody没人;everyone每个人,均语意不通。
6.句意:幸运的是,张曦义,一个政府官员,把它从斧头下救了下来。
根据上文“wanted to cut it down”和后文“from the axe”及语境可知,是“拯救”了树,saved“拯救”符合语境。found发现;caught抓住;saw看见,均不符合语境。
7.句意:它历经这么多挑战依然屹立。
根据后文“so many challenges”可知,此处指历经挑战,through“历经”符合语境。across横跨;past经过;around围绕,均不能与“challenges”搭配。
8.句意:他们很高兴看到许多梦想成真。
人们在树下祈祷,梦想成真后自然会感到愉快,固定搭配have the pleasure of doing sth.意为“做某事感到开心愉快”,pleasure“快乐,愉快”符合语境。love爱;feeling感觉;success成功,均不符合语境。
9.句意:我觉得它看起来更健康了。
“looked”是系动词,后接形容词作表语;much用来修饰形容词比较级,表示“……得多”,因此选形容词比较级healthier“更健康的”。healthily健康地,副词原级;more healthily更健康地,副词比较级;healthy健康的,形容词原级,均不符合语法要求。
10.句意:如果有人愿意停下来听,它总是愿意讲它的故事。
固定搭配“tell stories”意为“讲故事”。speak讲(强调动作);talk谈话(强调相互交流);say说(强调内容),均不能与“stories”搭配。

The next morning, I was back at the park. I saw a pigeon looking at itself in the 6 ! Maybe I was wrong about them. To know more about them, I headed to the library. I 7 that there are over 200 kinds of pigeons. Some can fly thousands of kilometers without 8 . They can fly over 100 km a (an) 9 —as fast as my dad’s car!

1.句意:一些幸运的孩子研究企鹅,但我必须写关于鸽子的内容。
根据下文多次出现的关键词“pigeons”,全文围绕鸽子展开,pigeons“鸽子”符合全文语境。monkeys“猴子”、mice“老鼠”、elephants“大象”,均不符。
2.句意:我觉得它们又无聊又脏。
根据前文鸽子到处乱飞、随处排便的描写,此处是对鸽子的负面评价,dirty“脏的”符合语境。pretty“漂亮的”、sleepy“困倦的”、sweet“可爱的”,均不符。
3.句意:当一个女孩开始喂它们时,鸽子迅速飞向她。
结合生活常识和语境,觅食的鸽子会快速飞过来,quickly“快速地”符合逻辑。slowly“缓慢地”、softly“轻柔地”、quietly“安静地”,均不符。
4.句意:令我惊讶的是,鸽子能在镜子里认出自己。
固定搭配to my surprise表示“令我惊讶的是”,my“我的”符合第一人称叙事语境。their“他们的”、your“你的”、his“他的”,均不符。
5.句意:我决定再次去观察它们。
前文作者近距离观察过鸽子,了解新知识后决定再次观察,watch“观察”符合语境。eat“吃”、feed“喂养”、buy“购买”,均不符。
6.句意:我看见一只鸽子在水中看自己的倒影。
根据前文“recognize themselves in mirrors”(照镜子认自己),只有水面可以形成倒影,water“水”符合语境。air“空气”、ground“地面”、sky“天空”,均不符。
7.句意:我发现世界上有两百多种鸽子。
根据前文作者去图书馆查阅资料的情节,此处指查阅后得知、发现信息,found“发现”符合语境。advised“建议”、dreamt“梦想”、explained“解释”,均不符。

结合鸽子的生活习性,鸽子擅长远距离飞行且不会迷路,getting lost“迷路”符合语境。counting down“倒计时”、doing exercise“锻炼”、coming out“出现”,均不符。
9.句意:它们每小时可以飞行一百多公里,和爸爸的汽车一样快。
结合车速常识,此处描述飞行速度,hour“小时”符合速度单位逻辑。minute“分钟”、day“天”、week“周”,均不符。
10.句意:最后我意识到鸽子一点也不无聊、不吓人。
呼应前文作者觉得鸽子很吓人的内容,scary“吓人的”符合前后文呼应逻辑。happy“开心的”、delicious“美味的”、humorous“幽默的”,均不符。
