I was standing in line at the grocery store, scrolling through my phone, impatient to get home after a long day of teaching. Ahead of me stood an elderly man in a faded grey coat. His hands shook slightly as he counted out coins onto the counter.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered to the cashier, his voice thin and shaky. “I thought I had enough.”
The cashier, a young woman who looked equally tired, sighed. “You’re short by five dollars, sir. Do you want to put something back?”
People behind me became impatient. The old man looked at his things: a carton of milk, a loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, and a small box of chocolate cookies. He slowly reached for the cookies. “I... I don’t need these. They were for my grandson, but...”
I could see how embarrassed he was. Without thinking twice, I walked forward and paid with my card. “I’ll pay for it,” I said. “Please keep the cookies.”
The man froze. He looked at me, his watery blue eyes wide with shock. “No, Miss, I couldn’t...”
“It’s fine,” I smiled, hoping to ease his worry. “Consider it a gift for your grandson.”
He tried to speak but choked up. He simply nodded, took his bag, and waited for me outside. When I walked out, he grabbed my hand. “You don’t know what this means. My pension (养老金) hasn’t arrived yet, and tomorrow is his birthday. Thank you.”
A week later, I was back at the same store. As I walked down the passage, a little boy ran up to me, holding a familiar box of chocolate cookies. Behind him was the old man, smiling happily. “He wanted to share one with you,” the man said.
That chocolate cookie tasted better than any fancy dessert I’d ever had. It tasted like connection. It tasted like hope.
4. Why did the author want to get home quickly?
A. She hated waiting in line. B. She was eager to meet her grandson.
C. She was tired after work. D. She needed to prepare for tomorrow’s class.
5. What made the old man choose to put the cookies back?

He slowly reached for the cookies. “I... I don’t need these. They were for my grandson, but...”(老人看着自己买的东西:一盒牛奶、一条面包、一打鸡蛋,还有一小盒巧克力饼干。他慢慢伸手去拿那盒饼干。“我…… 我不要这个了。本来是买给孙子的,可是……”)”可知,缺钱让这位老人决定把那些饼干放回去。

Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne
Around the World in Eighty Days, written by French author Jules Verne in 1872, is a classic adventure novel that combines thrilling adventures with vivid depictions of 19th-century global travel. The story follows Phileas Fogg, a wealthy and precise English gentleman, who bets £20,000 with his Reform Club friends that he can circumnavigate the globe in just 80 days. Accompanied by his loyal French servant, Passepartout, Fogg departs London immediately, embarking on a journey filled with unexpected challenges.
Their route takes them across continents and oceans — through the Suez Canal, India, Hong Kong, Japan, the United States, and back to Europe — using trains, steamships, and even elephants. Along the way, they rescue Aouda, an Indian princess fleeing forced ritual suicide, and avoid a persistent detective, Fix, who mistakenly believes Fogg is a bank robber. Despite obstacles like storms, missed connections, and cultural misunderstandings, Fogg’s calm determination and strategic thinking keep them on track.
The climax arrives when Fogg, delayed by Fix’s arrest (逮捕) in Liverpool, appears to lose the bet by arriving five minutes late. However, a twist shows that by traveling eastward, Fogg unknowingly gained a day due to time zones, allowing him to triumphantly claim victory at the Reform Club with seconds to spare. The novel concludes with Fogg marrying Aouda, blending adventure with a touch of romance.
Verne’s work not only fascinates readers with its suspenseful plot but also critiques societal issues of the era, such as British colonialism and cultural exploitation. Its themes of perseverance, ingenuity, and the spirit of exploration make it a timeless tale for young readers.
8. What prompted Phileas Fogg to begin his journey around the world?
A. A desire to explore new cultures.
B. A plan to escape Detective Fix’s pursuit.
C. An urgent mission to rescue Aouda.
D. A bet with his friends at the Reform Club.
9. Why did Detective Fix follow Phileas Fogg throughout the journey?
A. He wanted to protect Fogg from danger.
B. He believed Fogg had stolen money from a bank.
C. He aimed to help Fogg win the wager.
D. He was hired by the Reform Club to monitor Fogg.
10. What is the central theme of the book Around the World in Eighty Days?
A. The importance of friendship during hardships. B. The clash between technology and nature.
C. Perseverance and the spirit of exploration. D. The dangers of colonial expansion.
11. What does the underlined word “twist” in paragraph 3 most likely mean ______
A. a sudden and unexpected change in events
B. a physical turning movement in a circle
C. a difficult problem that has no solution
D. a small detail that is not important to the plot

【导语】本文主要介绍了儒勒·凡尔纳的经典冒险小说《八十天环游地球》,讲述福格因赌约开启环球之旅,历经艰险终获胜利的故事,彰显了坚持探索的精神内核。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The story follows Phileas Fogg, a wealthy and precise English gentleman, who bets £20,000 with his Reform Club friends that he can circumnavigate the globe in just 80 days. (故事讲述了富有且一丝不苟的英国绅士斐利亚·福格,与他在改良俱乐部的朋友们打赌两万英镑,声称自己能在80天内环游地球一圈)”可知,福格开启旅程的直接动因是与俱乐部朋友的赌约。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Along the way, they rescue Aouda, an Indian princess fleeing forced ritual suicide, and avoid a persistent detective, Fix, who mistakenly believes Fogg is a bank robber. (一路上,他们救下了逃离被迫殉葬习俗的印度公主奥妲,并躲避着锲而不舍的侦探费克斯,他误以为福格是一名银行抢劫犯)”可知,侦探费克斯全程跟踪福格是因为他错误地认定福格是银行劫匪。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Its themes of perseverance, ingenuity, and the spirit of exploration make it a timeless tale for young readers. (它关于坚持不懈、足智多谋以及探索精神的主旨,使其成为年轻读者心中永恒的故事)”可知,本书的核心主题是坚持不懈与探索精神。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“The climax arrives when Fogg, delayed by Fix’s arrest (逮捕) in Liverpool, appears to lose the bet by arriving five minutes late. However, a twist shows that by traveling eastward, Fogg unknowingly gained a day due to time zones, allowing him to triumphantly claim victory at the Reform Club with seconds to spare. (故事高潮来临:福格在利物浦被菲克斯逮捕耽误行程,抵达时晚了五分钟,眼看就要输掉赌约。然而剧情出现twist —— 福格一路向东行进,因时区差异不知不觉多赚了一天时间,最终他赶到改良俱乐部时仍剩数秒,如愿赢得赌局。)”可知,福格一路向东行进,因时区差异不知不觉多赚了一天时间,最终他赶到改良俱乐部时仍剩数秒,如愿赢得赌局,这是剧情发生的突然而出乎意料的变化。

Soon, people with visual impairments might read regular books using a new audio device. Developed by MIT, this finger-worn device aims to give them affordable, immediate access to printed text.
The FingerReader, a 3D printed trial model, fits like a ring. It is equipped with a small camera that scans text. Software tracks finger movements, identifies words, and processes the information. A machine voice reads aloud. It quickly translates books, menus, and other materials needed for daily living.
“It’s like reading with the tip of your finger,” said Pattie Maes, an MIT professor who founded and led the research group developing the model. “It’s more flexible and immediate than any current solution,” she added.
Developers faced unusual challenges in making the device. It uses vibration (震动) motors to warn users when they wander off the line of text, and audio signals to indicate the start and finish of the reading material. To accomplish this, developers spent three years coding software and experimenting with various designs. They also received feedback from people who are visually impaired.
Much work remains before the FingerReader is ready for the market. It needs adjustments to work on cell phones. The device can read papers, books, and computer screens, but it struggles with touch screens — touching the screen with the fingertip shifts the text and produces unintended results.
Jerry Berrier, aged 62, was born blind. He is attracted to the portability (便携) of the FingerReader. He sees promise in its offer of real-time use.
“When I go to the doctor’s office, there may be forms that I read before I sign them,” Berrier said. “Everywhere we go, for folks who are sighted, there are things that inform us about the products we interact with. I want to be able to interact with those same products, regardless of how I have to do it.”
“Any tool that gives better access to printed material helps us live fuller, richer, more productive lives,” Berrier added.
12. How does the FingerReader begin its reading process?
A. By reading the text aloud with a machine voice.
B. By scanning text with a small camera.
C. By tracking the finger movements.
D. By identifying the printed words.
13. What problem does the FingerReader have with touch screens?
A. The camera fails to identify words.
B. Audio signals do not work on them.
C. Touching them moves the text around.
D. The software is not coded for digital texts.
14. What does Jerry Berrier think of the future of the FingerReader?
A. Hopeful. B. Limited. C. Uncertain. D. Challenging.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Widespread Use and Popularity of FingerReader
B. A New Reading Device for the Visually Impaired
C. An Introduction to FingerReader’s Working Principles
D. From Challenge to Solution: The Story of FingerReader
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了麻省理工学院研发的一款供视力障碍人士使用的新型指环阅读设备FingerReader,介绍了它的外形、工作原理、研发难点、现存不足以及视力障碍使用者对它的正面评价。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据原文第二段“It is equipped with a small camera that scans text.(它配备了一个小型摄像头来扫描文字。)”可知,FingerReader依靠小型摄像头扫描文字开启阅读流程。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据原文第五段“The device can read papers, books, and computer screens, but it struggles with touch screens — touching the screen with the fingertip shifts the text and produces unintended results.(该设备可以读取纸张、书籍和电脑屏幕,但在触摸屏上使用时存在问题 —— 指尖触碰屏幕会挪动文字,产生非预期的效果。)”可知,这款设备在触摸屏上使用时的问题是触碰屏幕会使文字移位。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据原文第六段“He sees promise in its offer of real-time use.(他认为这款设备的实时使用功能前景可观。)”可知,Jerry Berrier对FingerReader的未来充满希望。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据原文第一段“Soon, people with visual impairments might read regular books using a new audio device. Developed by MIT, this finger-worn device aims to give them affordable, immediate access to printed text.(不久之后,视力障碍人士或许可以借助一款新型音频设备阅读普通书籍。这款由麻省理工学院研发的指环式设备旨在让他们能够平价、即时地读取印刷文字。)”可知,全文围绕一款面向视力障碍人群的新型阅读设备展开介绍,“一款供视力障碍人群使用的新型阅读设备”可概括文章主旨,适合作标题。

I was standing in line at the grocery store, scrolling through my phone, impatient to get home after a long day of teaching. Ahead of me stood an elderly man in a faded grey coat. His hands shook slightly as he counted out coins onto the counter.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered to the cashier, his voice thin and shaky. “I thought I had enough.”
The cashier, a young woman who looked equally tired, sighed. “You’re short by five dollars, sir. Do you want to put something back?”
People behind me became impatient. The old man looked at his things: a carton of milk, a loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, and a small box of chocolate cookies. He slowly reached for the cookies. “I... I don’t need these. They were for my grandson, but...”
I could see how embarrassed he was. Without thinking twice, I walked forward and paid with my card. “I’ll pay for it,” I said. “Please keep the cookies.”
The man froze. He looked at me, his watery blue eyes wide with shock. “No, Miss, I couldn’t...”
“It’s fine,” I smiled, hoping to ease his worry. “Consider it a gift for your grandson.”
He tried to speak but choked up. He simply nodded, took his bag, and waited for me outside. When I walked out, he grabbed my hand. “You don’t know what this means. My pension (养老金) hasn’t arrived yet, and tomorrow is his birthday. Thank you.”
A week later, I was back at the same store. As I walked down the passage, a little boy ran up to me, holding a familiar box of chocolate cookies. Behind him was the old man, smiling happily. “He wanted to share one with you,” the man said.
That chocolate cookie tasted better than any fancy dessert I’d ever had. It tasted like connection. It tasted like hope.

A. She hated waiting in line. B. She was eager to meet her grandson.
C. She was tired after work. D. She needed to prepare for tomorrow’s class.
5. What made the old man choose to put the cookies back?

Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne
Around the World in Eighty Days, written by French author Jules Verne in 1872, is a classic adventure novel that combines thrilling adventures with vivid depictions of 19th-century global travel. The story follows Phileas Fogg, a wealthy and precise English gentleman, who bets £20,000 with his Reform Club friends that he can circumnavigate the globe in just 80 days. Accompanied by his loyal French servant, Passepartout, Fogg departs London immediately, embarking on a journey filled with unexpected challenges.
Their route takes them across continents and oceans — through the Suez Canal, India, Hong Kong, Japan, the United States, and back to Europe — using trains, steamships, and even elephants. Along the way, they rescue Aouda, an Indian princess fleeing forced ritual suicide, and avoid a persistent detective, Fix, who mistakenly believes Fogg is a bank robber. Despite obstacles like storms, missed connections, and cultural misunderstandings, Fogg’s calm determination and strategic thinking keep them on track.
The climax arrives when Fogg, delayed by Fix’s arrest (逮捕) in Liverpool, appears to lose the bet by arriving five minutes late. However, a twist shows that by traveling eastward, Fogg unknowingly gained a day due to time zones, allowing him to triumphantly claim victory at the Reform Club with seconds to spare. The novel concludes with Fogg marrying Aouda, blending adventure with a touch of romance.
Verne’s work not only fascinates readers with its suspenseful plot but also critiques societal issues of the era, such as British colonialism and cultural exploitation. Its themes of perseverance, ingenuity, and the spirit of exploration make it a timeless tale for young readers.
8. What prompted Phileas Fogg to begin his journey around the world?
A. A desire to explore new cultures.
B. A plan to escape Detective Fix’s pursuit.
C. An urgent mission to rescue Aouda.
D. A bet with his friends at the Reform Club.
9. Why did Detective Fix follow Phileas Fogg throughout the journey?
A. He wanted to protect Fogg from danger.
B. He believed Fogg had stolen money from a bank.
C. He aimed to help Fogg win the wager.
D. He was hired by the Reform Club to monitor Fogg.
10. What is the central theme of the book Around the World in Eighty Days?
A. The importance of friendship during hardships. B. The clash between technology and nature.
C. Perseverance and the spirit of exploration. D. The dangers of colonial expansion.
11. What does the underlined word “twist” in paragraph 3 most likely mean ______

Soon, people with visual impairments might read regular books using a new audio device. Developed by MIT, this finger-worn device aims to give them affordable, immediate access to printed text.
The FingerReader, a 3D printed trial model, fits like a ring. It is equipped with a small camera that scans text. Software tracks finger movements, identifies words, and processes the information. A machine voice reads aloud. It quickly translates books, menus, and other materials needed for daily living.
“It’s like reading with the tip of your finger,” said Pattie Maes, an MIT professor who founded and led the research group developing the model. “It’s more flexible and immediate than any current solution,” she added.
Developers faced unusual challenges in making the device. It uses vibration (震动) motors to warn users when they wander off the line of text, and audio signals to indicate the start and finish of the reading material. To accomplish this, developers spent three years coding software and experimenting with various designs. They also received feedback from people who are visually impaired.
Much work remains before the FingerReader is ready for the market. It needs adjustments to work on cell phones. The device can read papers, books, and computer screens, but it struggles with touch screens — touching the screen with the fingertip shifts the text and produces unintended results.
Jerry Berrier, aged 62, was born blind. He is attracted to the portability (便携) of the FingerReader. He sees promise in its offer of real-time use.
“When I go to the doctor’s office, there may be forms that I read before I sign them,” Berrier said. “Everywhere we go, for folks who are sighted, there are things that inform us about the products we interact with. I want to be able to interact with those same products, regardless of how I have to do it.”
“Any tool that gives better access to printed material helps us live fuller, richer, more productive lives,” Berrier added.
12. How does the FingerReader begin its reading process?
A. By reading the text aloud with a machine voice.
B. By scanning text with a small camera.
C. By tracking the finger movements.
D. By identifying the printed words.
13. What problem does the FingerReader have with touch screens?
A. The camera fails to identify words.
B. Audio signals do not work on them.
C. Touching them moves the text around.
D. The software is not coded for digital texts.
14. What does Jerry Berrier think of the future of the FingerReader?
A. Hopeful. B. Limited. C. Uncertain. D. Challenging.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Widespread Use and Popularity of FingerReader
B. A New Reading Device for the Visually Impaired
C. An Introduction to FingerReader’s Working Principles
D. From Challenge to Solution: The Story of FingerReader
