He was very selfish and didn’t like to share anything. He had a lovely garden, but he never let anyone enter it. One day, he decided to go on a long journey to visit his friend, another giant. While he was away, the local children discovered the garden. They played there every day, climbing trees and picking flowers. The garden became full of laughter and joy. When the giant returned, he was furious. He chased the children out and built an even taller wall around the garden. After that, the garden became silent. The flowers stopped blooming, and the birds stopped singing. Winter seemed to stay forever. The giant was very confused. "Why doesn't spring come here?" he wondered. He waited and waited, but nothing changed. One morning, he heard the sweet sound of birdsong. He looked out of the window and saw that in one corner of the garden, there was a tiny hole in the wall. A small boy had crawled through it. Under his feet, the grass turned green, and the flowers bloomed. The giant finally understood that only sharing could bring warmth. （ ）26. Why did the children play in the garden? A. Because the giant invited them.　 　 B. Because the giant was away. C. Because they wanted to meet the giant. D. Because there was a party. （ ）27. What did the giant do after he came back? A. He played with the children.　　　B. He built a higher wall. C. He cut down all the flowers.　　　D. He moved away. （ ）28. What happened to the garden after the wall was built? A. It became more beautiful.　　　 B. The birds sang more loudly. C. Winter stayed in the garden.　　 D. The children played there secretly. （ ）29. What brought spring back to the garden? A.The rain.　　　 B. The giant's friend.　　　 C. The power of the sun.　　　D. A small child. （ ）30. What lesson did the giant learn in the end? A. Sharing brings happiness.　　　B. Tall walls are good. C. Winter is terrible.　　　 D. Children are noisy. B In the story of The Selfish Giant, we see a clear change in the giant's character. At the start, he is lonely and unhappy because he shuts out the world. He believes that keeping his garden to himself will make him happy, but it only brings a permanent winter. Psychologically, the garden itself acts as a mirror to the giant's soul. When he is mean and selfish, the garden is cold and lifeless. When he opens his heart and his gate, the garden immediately responds with warmth and life. This shows that our attitudes towards others greatly affect our own well-being. By shutting others out, we only shut ourselves in. The story also uses the contrast between the giant and the children. The children represent innocence and the natural ability to enjoy life. The giant, in his pride, forgets how to be joyful. It is only through connecting with the children that he rediscovers his own happiness. This teaches us that simple acts of kindness can break down the walls we build around ourselves. （ ）31. According to the passage, what did the giant believe at the start? A. Sharing his garden would make him happy.　　　 B. Keeping the garden to himself would make him happy. C. The children were his friends.　　　 D. Winter was beautiful. （ ）32. The underlined word “mirror” in Paragraph 2 means ______. A. 镜子　　　B. 反映　　　C. 工具　　　D. 障碍 （ ）33. When does the garden become warm and full of life? A. When the giant builds a taller wall.　　　 B. When the giant is selfish. C. When the giant opens his heart and garden.　　　 D. When the children stop coming. （ ）34. What do the children represent in the story? A.Pride and selfishness.　　　 B. Innocence and the ability to enjoy life. C. Hard work and duty.　　　 D. Danger and trouble. （ ）35. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Tall walls are necessary.　　　 B. Being selfish leads to loneliness and unhappiness. C. Giants are always bad.　　　 D. Spring is better than winter. 四、单词拼写/词汇运用（共10空，每空1分，共10分） 根据句意及汉语提示或首字母写出单词的正确形式。 36.

Just like the giant in the story, only by opening our hearts to others can we truly enjoy the beauty of life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
