Unless you read a poem several times, you may miss its deeper meaning. However, if you take your time, poetry can be a wonderful experience. Poems use language in a creative way, and they often express strong emotions in just a few lines. Some people think poetry is only for scholars, but this is not true. Anyone can enjoy poetry unless they refuse to give it a chance. There are many types of poems, from short haikus to long epics. You can find poems about nature, love, friendship, and almost any other topic. If you want to start reading poetry, begin with simple poems. Don’t worry if you don’t understand everything at first. Unless you keep reading, you won’t develop a taste for it. Over time, you will learn to appreciate the beauty of poetic language. Reading poetry can also improve your writing skills. Unless you expose yourself to different styles, you won’t learn how to use language effectively. So, why not pick up a poetry book today? 16．Why might people miss the deeper meaning of a poem? A．Because it is too long. B．Because they do not read it several times. C．Because they don’t like poetry. D．Because it is written in a foreign language. 17．According to the passage, who can enjoy poetry? A．Only scholars. B．Anyone who is willing to give it a chance. C．Only adults. D．Only those who write poetry. 18．What is suggested for beginners who want to read poetry? A．Read long epics. B．Start with simple poems. C．Only read haikus. D．Read poems about nature. 19．What is one benefit of reading poetry mentioned in the passage? A．It helps you make friends. B．It improves your writing skills. C．It makes you rich. D．It teaches you history. 20．What does the author suggest about developing a taste for poetry? A．It is impossible. B．It requires continuous reading. C．It happens overnight. D．It is not worth the effort. B ① Hans Christian Andersen was born in 1805 in a one-bedroom house in Odense, Denmark. This tiny house was shared by 12 people. Although it was crowded, it helped to develop his unique imagination. Andersen rarely spoke highly of his childhood, but the only thing from his childhood that he always spoke fondly of was a bookshelf full of books. ② When Andersen was 11, the already struggling family experienced a big blow—Andersen’s father passed away. To support the family, his mother tried to put an end to Andersen’s dream of becoming a writer by sending him to work. But Andersen knew that his only interest lay in books and stories. In the following years, Andersen lived in extreme poverty. To earn money and follow his dream, at 14, the young Andersen left for Copenhagen, where he tried different jobs, like a weaver, a tailor, or a ballet dancer, but he couldn’t do them very well. ③ At the age of 17, Andersen’s hard work paid off. Jonas Collin, a director of the Royal Danish Theatre, read some of Andersen’s works and felt that he showed promise. With the help of Collin, Andersen was able to continue his education. At school, Andersen was often made fun of for his appearance and voice, which made him feel lonely. Whatever happened, Andersen stayed positive and didn’t give up. He kept learning to read and write. ④ Finally, from 1835, Andersen received praise for his “fairy tales”, and he began to enjoy his hard-earned success. He once described his schooldays as the bitterest time of his life, and admitted that most of his stories were a reflection of his own life. Much like the ugly duckling, Andersen only in his late 60s became the “swan”—a “national treasure” of Denmark. 21．Which subheading best matches Paragraph 1? A．Bitter school life. B．Success as a writer. C．Attempts to make money at an early age. D．A hard childhood life. 22．Which subheading best matches Paragraph 2? A．Bitter school life. B．Success as a writer.

C．Attempts to make money at an early age. D．A hard childhood and teenage life. 24．Which subheading best matches Paragraph 4? A．Bitter school life. B．Success as a writer. C．Attempts to make money at an early age. D．A hard childhood and teenage life. 25．Why is Andersen compared to the ugly duckling? A．Because he looked like a duck when he was young. B．Because he was poor at first but became a great writer later. C．Because he wrote the story The Ugly Duckling. D．Because he kept ducks at home. C O. Henry and His Surprise Endings O. Henry is one of America’s most famous short story writers. His real name was William Sydney Porter. He was born in 1862 and died in 1910. During his lifetime, he wrote over 600 short stories. What made O. Henry’s stories so special? The answer is his “surprise endings”. Almost every O. Henry story has a twist at the end. The readers think the story is going one way, but suddenly it takes a completely different turn. This keeps readers engaged and makes them want to read more. His most famous story, The Gift of the Magi, is a perfect example of this style. Throughout the story, we feel sorry for Della and Jim because they are so poor. We expect a sad ending. But then comes the surprise—Jim has sold his watch to buy combs for Della’s hair, which she has already sold. The ending is both surprising and heartwarming. O. Henry’s stories are still loved today because they combine humor, emotion, and unexpected twists. His works remind us that life is full of surprises. 26．What is O. Henry best known for? A．Writing novels. B．His surprise endings. C．Writing about nature. D．His long stories. 27．How many short stories did O. Henry write? A．About 100. B．About 200. C．Over 600. D．Over 1,000. 28．What is a “surprise ending”? A．A story that is very long. B．A story that ends with a happy moment. C．A story that takes an unexpected turn at the end. D．A story that has no ending. 29．Why did the readers expect a sad ending in The Gift of the Magi? A．Because Della and Jim were very rich. B．Because Della and Jim were very poor. C．Because it was a war story. D．Because it was a horror story. 30．Why are O. Henry’s stories still loved today? A．They are always about happy topics. B．They combine humor, emotion, and unexpected twists. C．They are all very short. D．They are all set in New York. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从文后所列选项中，选出最佳选项填入对应空白处，使短文通顺、连贯。（选项中有两项多余） Who is the greatest English writer? 31 His popular expressions, like “to be or not to be, that is the question”, and his stories such as Romeo and Juliet are famous in almost every corner of the world.

The boats sailed toward the camp of Cao Cao.”可知，诸葛亮邀请鲁肃“乘船出游”，“boat ride”意为“乘船出游/坐船”，故选ride。“game”游戏，“test”测试，“sport”运动，均不符合。 9．句意：江面上大雾弥漫，人们几乎看不清彼此。 根据前文“A thick fog had spread over the surface of the river.”可知，雾很大，应该是“看不清”，“hardly”意为“几乎不”，符合句意，故选hardly。“always”总是，“often”经常，“sometimes”有时，均不符合。 10．句意：当诸葛亮的船靠近曹营时，诸葛亮命令他的士兵们大喊并击鼓，假装攻击。 “got close to”意为“靠近”，符合句意，故选close。“blind”盲的，“open”开放的，“opposed”反对的，均不符合。 11．句意：诸葛亮和鲁肃只是坐在其中一艘船里饮酒作乐。 根据前文他们乘船出行，以及后文“inside one of the ______”，可知是“船”，故选boats。“camps”营地，“chairs”椅子，“houses”房子，均不符合。 12．句意：曹营一听到喊叫声和鼓声，他们误以为这是周瑜军营的突然袭击。 根据前文“ordered his soldiers to shout and beat drums”，可知是“喊叫声”，故选shouting。“singing”唱歌，“cheering”欢呼，“reading”阅读，均不符合。 13．句意：草人的正面很快射满了箭。 “full of”是固定搭配，意为“充满……”，符合句意，故选full。“sure”确定的，“short”短的/缺乏的，“proud”骄傲的，均不符合。 14．句意：当这一面也射满箭时，天亮了。 上一段讲正面很快射满了箭，即前句“After a while, Zhuge Liang had his boats turn around to show the other side of the scarecrows.”可知，另一面也被射满，故选also。“still”仍然，“even”甚至，“yet”已经，均不符合。 15．句意：他们回到营地后，他们从稻草人身上收集了超过十万只箭。 “returned to”意为“回到”，符合句意，故选returned to。“drove along”沿着……开车，“found out”发现，“set up”建立，均不符合。 16．B 17．B 18．B 19．B 20．B 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，通过破除“诗歌难懂”“仅为学者专属”的误解，强调诗歌的普适性和益处，鼓励读者尝试阅读诗歌。 【解析】16．第一段明确提到“Unless you read a poem several times, you may miss its deeper meaning”，即人们可能错过诗歌深层含义的原因是“除非读几遍”，即若不读几遍，可能错过深层含义。 17．第二段指出“Anyone can enjoy poetry unless they refuse to give it a chance”，即任何人只要愿意尝试就能欣赏诗歌。 18．第三段建议“If you want to start reading poetry, begin with simple poems”，即初学者应从简单的诗歌开始。 19．第四段提到“Reading poetry can also improve your writing skills”，即阅读诗歌的一个益处是提升写作能力。 20．第三段说明“Unless you keep reading, you won’t develop a taste for it”，即培养诗歌品味需要持续阅读。 21．D 22．C 23．A 24．B 25．B 【导语】本文讲述安徒生坎坷的人生经历，历经贫穷、磨难，最终成为伟大童话作家。 【解析】21．第一段“Hans Christian Andersen was born in 1805 in a one-bedroom house in Odense, Denmark. This tiny house was shared by 12 people…Andersen rarely spoke highly of his childhood, but the only thing from his childhood that he always spoke fondly of was a bookshelf full of books.”主要介绍了安徒生的出生年份、拥挤的居住环境以及贫困的童年状况。选项D“A hard childhood life(艰难的童年生活)”涵盖了“童年”这一核心主题，与其他选项相比最符合第一段内容。 22．第二段“To support the family, his mother tried to put an end to Andersen’s dream of becoming a writer by sending him to work.”及“To earn money and follow his dream, at 14, the young Andersen left for Copenhagen, where he tried different jobs, like a weaver, a tailor, or a ballet dancer, but he couldn’t do them very well.”讲述了父亲去世后，母亲让他去工作，14岁时他为了赚钱和追求梦想尝试了织工、裁缝等多种工作。这与选项C“Attempts to make money at an early age.(早年尝试赚钱)”相符。 23．第三段“At school, Andersen was often made fun of for his appearance and voice, which made him feel lonely…Whatever happened, Andersen stayed positive and didn’t give up.”提到安徒生17岁时获得教育机会，但在学校因外貌和声音被嘲笑，感到孤独，但他坚持学习。这对应选项A“Bitter school life.(痛苦的学校生活)”。 24．第四段“Finally, from 1835, Andersen received praise for his ‘fairy tales’…and admitted that most of his stories were a reflection of his own life.”提到从1835年开始，他的童话受到赞扬，开始享受成功，成为丹麦的“国宝”。这对应选项B“Success as a writer.(作为作家的成功)”。 25．文章最后一段提到“Much like the ugly duckling, Andersen only in his late 60s became the “swan”—a ‘national treasure’ of Denmark.”说明，此处将安徒生比作丑小鸭，是因为他像丑小鸭一样，早年生活艰难贫困，后来才蜕变成伟大的作家(“天鹅”)。选项B“Because he was poor at first but became a great writer later.”准确概括了这一比喻背后的含义，即先苦后甜的人生经历。 26．B 27．C 28．C 29．B 30．B 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了美国著名短篇小说家O. Henry及其作品的特点，特别是他标志性的“意外结局”，并以《麦琪的礼物》为例进行了说明。 【解析】26．根据第二段“The answer is his...”可知，欧·亨利最出名的是他的意外结局。 27．根据第一段“During his lifetime, he wrote over 600 short stories.”可知，数量超过600篇。 28．根据第二段“Almost every O. Henry story has a twist at the end. The readers think the story is going one way, but suddenly it takes a completely different turn.”几乎每个欧·亨利的故事结尾都有转折。读者认为故事朝一个方向发展，但突然完全转向另一个方向。由此可知，“意外结局”指的是故事结尾出现意想不到的转折。 29．根据第三段“Throughout the story, we feel sorry for Della and Jim because they are so poor. We expect a sad ending.”在整个故事中，我们为德拉和吉姆感到难过，因为他们太穷了。我们期待一个悲伤的结局。由此可知，读者期待悲伤结局是因为他们很穷。 30．根据最后一段“O. Henry’s stories are still loved today because they combine humor, emotion, and unexpected twists.”欧·亨利的故事今天仍然受到喜爱，因为它们结合了幽默、情感和意想不到的转折。“They combine humor, emotion, and unexpected twists.”即“它们结合了幽默、情感和意想不到的转折。”与原文表述一致。 31．E 32．D 33．A 34．C 35．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国伟大作家莎士比亚的生平经历、戏剧作品特点及其对英语语言发展的深远影响。 【解析】31．空前提问“谁是最伟大的英国作家”，空后介绍知名作品，此处应回答问题引出莎士比亚，选项E“The person should be William Shakespeare.”直接回答了上文的问题，符合语境。 32．空前介绍莎士比亚的出生信息，空后提到1594他已是伦敦重要剧作家，此处补充他前往伦敦开始剧作家生涯的经历，选项D“When he was young, he moved to London and began to work as a playwright.”承上启下，符合时间逻辑。 33．空前点明莎士比亚的喜剧和悲剧都深受喜爱，空后先举喜剧《仲夏夜之梦》的例子再介绍悲剧，此处说明莎士比亚喜剧的特点，选项A“His comedies make a joke on human weakness and always have a happy ending.”符合对喜剧的描述。 34．空前提到莎士比亚的作品对英语影响很大，此处补充他对英语语言的具体贡献，C选项“He created about 1,700 English words, including everyday ones like ‘lonely’ and ‘hurry’”介绍他创造了约1700个英语单词，符合语境。 35．空前说明莎士比亚时代的英语和现代英语不同，空后介绍他的作品被广泛翻译、改编，依然广受欢迎，此处表转折，说明语言差异不影响他的popularity，选项F“But it doesn’t influence his popularity (流行程度).”起到了转折连接作用。 36．to read 【解析】句意：对年轻人来说定期读好书是很重要的。本句使用固定句型It is+adj.+for sb. to do sth.，it作形式主语，真正主语是后面的动词不定式，应填to read。 37．ending 【解析】句意：这个故事有一个温暖的结局，打动了每一位读者。位于“a warm”之后，需使用单数名词；end“结束”，动词，名词形式是ending，意为“结局”。符合语境。 38．to improve 【解析】句意：他坚持每天阅读，来提升自己的写作能力。句中“提升自己的写作能力”是“坚持每天阅读”的目的。在英语中，常用动词不定式来表示目的。因此将括号内的动词improve变为不定式形式to improve。 39．carefully 【解析】句意：我们应该仔细地读书以获得更深入的理解。空格前“read books”为动词短语，需用副词修饰动词。括号内careful为形容词，其副词形式为carefully，表示“仔细地”，修饰“read”，符合句意。 故填carefully。 40．literary

to doing sth.”表示“把某人的努力投入到做某事中”。 44．plot 【解析】句意：这本书惊人的情节让成千上万的读者感兴趣。根据汉语提示可知，plot“情节”，可数名词；由谓语动词makes可知主语为单数。 45．beyond 【解析】句意：这首诗深层的含义超出了我的理解范围。此处表达“超出”，后面接名词my understanding，要用介词beyond。 46．make sense 【解析】原句中“讲不通”是关键词，表示“讲得通、有道理”的短语是make sense。本句为一般现在时，doesn’t后接动词原形。故填make；sense。 47．got down to 【解析】原句中“动笔、着手做”是关键词，表示“着手做”的短语是get down to。后半句时态为一般过去时，get的过去式为got。故填got；down；to。 48．In a particular situation fully enjoy it 【解析】①空：原句中“在特定的情境下”是关键词，表示“在特定的情境下”的介词短语是In a particular situation，在句中作状语。②空：原句中“完全享受它”是关键词，表示“完全享受它”的短语是fully enjoy it，在句中作make的宾语补足语。 49．saves life

It is The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway. The story tells about an old fisherman who fights against a huge fish alone. Although he has gone many days without catching a fish, he never gives up. He is brave and strong-minded. I love this work because the old man has impressed me a lot. He teaches me that we should be confident and keep trying even when we face difficulties. His spirit has lasting values and encourages me to be a better person. Reading this work helps me learn about good qualities like courage and hope. I really hope everyone can read it and learn something valuable from it.
