专题04 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 （25-26高一上·江苏苏州实验中学·期中）Last weekend, I took my 4-year-old grandson Oliver to the park. He had been pestering (纠缠) me to take him to the park to watch the ducks in the pond; I finally realized his wish. I went in thinking I’d be the teacher to teach him about the ducks, but that day, Oliver ended up teaching me more. He had no goals. 4-year-olds don’t need goals. As soon as we stepped 50 feet into the park, Oliver looked up at the sky, where big soft clouds moved slowly. He stood still, smiling, and found real joy in watching them. I’d long forgotten clouds’ magic: My mind was filled with things to do, but watching their slow movement could be soothing and reduce my worries and nervousness. Next, Oliver focused on the big trees, laughing as their branches shook in the wind. When a small bird jumped on the grass, he ran after it, laughing as though it were the funniest thing in the world. In that moment, nothing else mattered to him. His curiosity never disappeared, especially when it came to fallen leaves. He hunted for them, big and small, treating each one like a treasure. He only saw them as tools for play. No screens or toys were needed. Nearby, kids played with their parents, and dog walkers passed by. Oliver waved at everyone, holding out his hand for high fives with 4-and 5-year-olds, who smiled and said hi back. His mix of real words and kid talk didn’t stop him — he just wanted to connect, without judgment, or fear. The biggest lesson hit me then: live in the moment. He never asked the time, when we’d leave, or what would be next. Whether he was running after sticks, petting a dog, or running across the grass, he was entirely in the moment. That hour with Oliver reminded me of the wonder we lose as adults, and of many things we can learn from a child’s simple, unplanned joy. 1.Why did the author take Oliver to the park? A. To clean the park. B. To feed the ducks. C. To act as a teacher. D. To watch the ducks. 2.What does the underlined word “soothing” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Dangerous. B. Confusing. C. Comforting. D. Changeable. 3.What do we know about Oliver from paragraph 3? A. He was afraid of meeting people. B. He had fun playing toys in the park. C. He had a strong curiosity about fallen leaves. D. He didn’t get along well with other children in the park. 4.What can we learn from the text? A. Knowledge is power. B. Now is all that counts. C. Friendship comes from getting together. D. Nothing is more important than education. 【答案】1. D　2. C　3. C　4. B 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者带孙子去公园玩的经历。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段“He had been pestering (纠缠) me to take him to the park to watch the ducks in the pond; I finally realized his wish.(他一直缠着我，要我带他去公园看池塘里的鸭子；我最终实现了他的愿望)”可知，Oliver一直缠着作者带他去公园看池塘里的鸭子，作者最终满足了他的愿望。故选D项。 (2)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据前文“He stood still, smiling, and found real joy in watching them. I’d long forgotten clouds’ magic: My mind was filled with things to do(他站着不动，面带微笑，从看着他们身上找到了真正的快乐。我早就忘记了云的魔力：我的脑子里满是要做的事情)”以及之后的转折以及后文“and reduce my worries and nervousness(减少我的担忧和紧张)”可知，划线单词和“减少我的担忧和紧张”并列，表达同样的意思，推知，应是“放松”之意，和C项意思相近。故选C项。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段“His curiosity never disappeared, especially when it came to fallen leaves. He hunted for them, big and small, treating each one like a treasure.(他的好奇心从未消失，尤其是对落叶的好奇。他到处寻找，无论大小，把每一个都当作珍宝)”可知，Oliver对落叶有着强烈的好奇心。故选C项。 (4)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The biggest lesson hit me then: live in the moment. He never asked the time, when we’d leave, or what would be next. Whether he was running after sticks, petting a dog, or running across the grass, he was entirely in the moment. That hour with Oliver reminded me of the wonder we lose as adults, and of many things we can learn from a child’s simple, unplanned joy.(我从中得到的最大教训是：活在当下。他从来没有问过时间，我们什么时候离开，或者接下来要做什么。无论他是在追树枝、抚摸狗，还是在草地上奔跑，他都完全沉浸在当下。和Oliver在一起的那一小时让我想起了我们作为成年人所失去的奇迹，也让我想起了我们可以从一个孩子简单的、计划外的快乐中学到很多东西)”可知，作者领悟到最重要的一点：要活在当下。故选B项。 主题语境02 人与社会-社会服务与人际沟通 （25-26高一上·江苏海安高级中学·期中）Ben was eleven years old when he spotted his neighbour, Julie, working in her garden. He popped his head over the fence, and said to her, “I’ve seen you’re very good with a lawn mower (割草机) and gardening tools. The hedge (树篱) over the pathway near here has become so overgrown that I am planning to cut it back. Would you like to help out?” Julie loved the idea of helping Ben and their community. They agreed to cut the hedge the following Sunday. Ben’s brother Josh, aged 8 at the time, also came along to help. All three of them tackled away at it until they reduced it. They posted photos of their handiwork on “Our Malmesbury”, their local Facebook Group. The community reaction was amazing. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury seemed to embrace (欣然接受) their team spirit and felt inspired to follow their lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep their town tidy. With many willing hands, their town has transformed. Before, the town looked a bit run down, but now, the place looks cleaner and tidier. To keep the projects going, Ben created a Facebook page and website to support their projects. Their Facebook Page “Helping The Community Of Malmesbury” currently sits at 669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. Ben also managed to sort funding through local businesses and associations. The funding has helped them obtain trees, plants, tools, and gardening equipment. When community members plan a clean-up, they can contact them on the website to access any tools and equipment they need to complete a project. Ben is so pleased that 6 years later, the clean-up campaign is still in full-swing. He has just been so moved by the support over the years that he cannot thank the community enough.

I was so excited but also a little nervous because my French was not good. One hot afternoon, after exploring the city, I felt really tired. I wanted to tell my French friend, Claire, “I am a little tired.” I carefully said the words I’d learned: “Je suis un pue fatigue.” But Claire burst out laughing. My face felt hot. What had I done wrong? Claire explained, “In French, there are words that sound similar but have very different meanings. ‘peu’ means ‘a little,’ but if you pronounce it differently, it can sound like ‘pue’, which means ‘stinks’ — like something smells bad. So, instead of saying you needed a rest, it sounded like you were saying you smelled bad and were tired” This awkward (尴尬的) moment was a real eye-opener for me. It made me realize just how daunting pronunciation can be in a foreign language. Even small differences in pronunciation can completely change the meaning of what you’re trying to say. The same is true in English, for example, “ship” (a large boat) and “sheep” (a woolly animal) sound very similar, but they mean totally different things. Now, I pay extra attention to how words sound and what they mean. And if I mix them up again? I’ll just laugh along. After all, laughing is part of learning — even if it’s a bit stinky sometimes. 1.Why was the author nervous about his holiday in France? A. He was poor at French. B. He never went abroad. C. He had no friends there. D. He was in short of money. 2.What awkward moment did the author meet? A. He got a wrong person. B. He made a pronunciation mistake. C. He was tricked by the locals. D. He spelt a word incorrectly. 3.What does the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Easy. B. Natural. C. Difficult. D. Clear. 4.How did the author’s experience in France affect him? A. He smelled bad and was tired. B. He hated learning foreign languages. C. He no longer considered Claire as a friend. D. He became open to mistakes in language learning. 【答案】1. A　2. B　3. C　4. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在法国度假时，因法语发音错误而引发的尴尬经历及从中获得的启示。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中“I was so excited but also a little nervous because my French was not good.(我很兴奋，但也有点紧张，因为我的法语不好。)”可知，作者因为法语不好而感到紧张。故选A。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Claire explained, “In French, there are words that sound similar but have very different meanings. ‘peu’ means ‘a little,’ but if you pronounce it differently, it can sound like ‘pue’, which means ‘stinks’ — like something smells bad.(Claire解释说：“在法语中，有些词发音相似，但意思却大不相同。‘peu’的意思是‘一点点’，但如果你发音不同，听起来就像‘pue’，意思是‘发臭’——就像什么东西闻起来很臭。)”可知，作者遇到的尴尬时刻是发音错误。故选B。 (3)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“This awkward (尴尬的) moment was a real eye-open er for me. It made me realize just how daunting pronunciation can be in a foreign language. Even small differences in pronunciation can completely change the meaning of what you’re trying to say.(这个尴尬的时刻让我大开眼界。它让我意识到在外语中发音是多么daunting。即使发音上的微小差异也会完全改变你想说的意思。)”可知，发音可能是困难的。因此，daunting最可能的意思是“困难的”。故选C。 (4)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Now, I pay extra attention to how words sound and what they mean. And if I mix them up again? I’ll just laugh along. After all, laughing is part of learning — even if it’s a bit stinky sometimes.(现在，我特别注意单词的发音和意思。如果我再把它们混在一起呢？我会一起笑的。毕竟，笑是学习的一部分——即使有时有点臭。)”可知，作者在法国的经历使他变得对语言学习中的错误持开放态度。故选D。 Passage 2 （25-26高一上·江苏南京航空航天大学苏州附中·期中）Last month Alaska photographer Mark Kelley was named the winning photographer in the 2022 portfolio (照片集) type featured in the National Wildlife magazine photo contest. Kelley’s winning portfolio featured 10 photos taken over the past 13 years. “It’s a real honor,” Kelley says. “I was blown away. My goal has always been to share Alaska one image at a time, but now 10 of my images did just that. I think for a wildlife photographer it’s the world’s highest praise.” Although he’s originally from Buffalo, New York, Kelley said he considers himself a “Southeast guy”. He always thought his love for photography growing up was just a hobby, not something he could turn into a career. That changed when he began taking photography classes at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. After graduating, Kelley was able to successfully secure a photography job in Juneau, and after moving to the capital city in 1979, he never looked back. “I fell in love with Juneau,” he says. Kelley says he was drawn to Anan Creek and the animals surrounding it because the location is Southeast Alaska. He says each photo shows the continuous rain, towering trees and green forest that makes the region unlike other parts of Alaska. But, beyond the location, what brings the area to life is the plentiful wildlife that lives among the rainforest. Kelley says that for each of the chosen 10 photos, thousands were taken to find those exact moments. Each visit included three to four days standing on a viewing platform in hopes of catching those special moments. Moments like that come in the blink of an eye, but when shot, it makes all those long hours of waiting worth it. 1.What do the underlined words “blown away” probably mean in paragraph 2? A. Thankful. B. Excited. C. Anxious. D. Confused. 2.What experience was important for Kelley becoming a photographer? A. His visit to Southeast Alaska. B. His love for award-winning photos. C. His college learning experience. D. His meeting with plentiful wildlife. 3.What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Why Anan Creek is attractive to Kelley. B. How Kelley describes his special days. C. Why wildlife is plentiful in Anan Creek. D. How Kelley takes those winning photos. 4.What quality of Kelley is shown in the last paragraph? A. Curious. B. Brave. C. Calm. D. Patient. 【答案】1. B　2. C　3. A　4. D 【解析】【导语】 这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了阿拉斯加摄影师马克·凯利是如何拍摄出获奖照片的。 (1)题解析： 词义猜测题。根据第一段“Last month Alaska photographer Mark Kelley was named the winning photographer in the 2022 portfolio (照片集) type featured in the National Wildlife magazine photo contest. Kelley’s winning portfolio featured 10 photos taken over the past 13 years.(上个月，阿拉斯加摄影师 Mark Kelley 被评为国家野生动物杂志摄影大赛 2022 年作品集）类型的获奖摄影师。凯利的获奖作品集收录了过去 13 年拍摄的 10 张照片。)”和第二段中““It’s a real honor,” Kelley says.(“这是一个真正的荣誉，”凯利说。)”由此可推知，凯利获奖了，她很激动。结合选项B项Excited“兴奋的，激动的”意思一致。故选B项。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中“That changed when he began taking photography classes at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.( 当他开始在阿拉斯加费尔班克斯大学（University of Alaska Fairbanks）学习摄影课程时，情况发生了变化。)”可知，凯利的大学学习经历让他成为一名摄影师。故选C项。 (3)题解析： 主旨大意题。根据第四段““I fell in love with Juneau,” he says. Kelley says he was drawn to Anan Creek and the animals surrounding it because the location is Southeast Alaskan. He says each photo shows the continuous rain, towering trees and green forest that makes the region unlike other parts of Alaska. But, beyond the location, what brings the area to life is the plentiful wildlife that lives among the rainforest.( “我爱上了朱诺，”他说。凯利说，他被阿南溪和周围的动物所吸引，因为它位于阿拉斯加东南部。他说，每张照片都显示了持续的降雨，参天的树木和绿色的森林，使该地区不同于阿拉斯加的其他地区。但是，除了地理位置之外，让这个地区充满生机的是生活在雨林中的大量野生动物。)”可知，第四段主要讲的是阿南溪对凯利来说具有吸引力的原因。故选A项。 (4)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Each visit included three to four days standing on a viewing platform in hopes of catching those special moments. Moments like that come in the blink of an eye, but when shot, it makes all those long hours of waiting worth it.( 每次参观都要站在观景台上三到四天，希望能捕捉到这些特别的时刻。这样的时刻在眨眼之间就会出现，但当拍摄下来时，所有漫长的等待都是值得的。)”可知，凯利拍摄获奖照片的过程是漫长且艰辛的，由此可推知，他是一个有耐心的人。故选D项。 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 Passage 1 （25-26高一上·江苏盐城五校联考·期中）I took a taxi in front of my office. “Hello,” the driver said cheerfully. I didn’t want to make small talk with a stranger, so I gave him my home address without even a hello back. I usually took the subway or a bus after work. But it had been a bad day. I had just come out of a difficult meeting. Five months before, I’d lost my friend Analia. Two weeks earlier my aunt had passed away. I had no time to process the loss with one coming after the other. I just wanted to be alone with my sadness. At a red light, the driver asked, “Could I put on some music?” I nodded an okay. Maybe music would help keep us in our own worlds. An old merengue (默朗格舞曲) filled the back seat. I thought of Aunt Nena. She was always the first to hit the floor at family parties. “Always give yourself a reason to dance and sing,” she used to say. The DJ said, “Friendships can be beautiful, can’t they? This song is for all the good friends.” This song was like something Analia and I would have sung on one of our road trips. If she were here, she’d be singing even now. Was that what Analia and Aunt Nena would want for me? The merengue, the pop songs — my aunt and my friend brought music to my life. They would want me to enjoy each day the way they’d taught me. To appreciate my job, my friends and my family, the subway and bus rides, talkative taxi drivers, and life. “Mind if I sing to this one?” the driver asked. “The music feels better when others can hear you sing.” “It sure does,” I said. I opened my window to let the wind in, to let life in, and to sing with a taxi driver for all of New York and Aunt Nena and Analia to hear. 1.Why did the author refuse to make conversation with the taxi driver? A. She was still busy with her work. B. She noticed the driver was not friendly. C. She had been having a tough time recently. D. She didn’t want to turn the driver’s attention away. 2.Which of the following did Aunt Nena and Analia share? A. Loving the same songs. B. Enjoying music and life. C. Being popular among people. D. Placing importance on friendships. 3.What lesson might the author have learnt from Aunt Nena and Analia? A. Live in the present. B. Be kind to strangers. C. Be ready to help others. D. Try hard to be talkative. 4.What happened to the author according to the last paragraph? A. She got very tired of the taxi ride. B. She made friends with the driver. C. She couldn’t breathe in the car. D. She opened her heart to others. 【答案】1. C　2. B　3. A　4. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者近期遭遇亲友离世的打击，乘车时拒绝与司机交流，却在音乐触动下回忆起亲友的人生态度，最终敞开心扉的故事。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But it had been a bad day. I had just come out of a difficult meeting. Five months before, I’d lost my friend Analia. Two weeks earlier my aunt had passed away. I had no time to process the loss with one coming after the other. I just wanted to be alone with my sadness.(但那是糟糕的一天。我刚结束一场艰难的会议。五个月前，我失去了朋友安娜莉亚。两周前，我的姑姑去世了。打击接踵而至，我根本没时间消化这些伤痛。我只想独自沉浸在悲伤中。)”可知，作者近期遭遇了亲友离世、工作会议不顺等一系列烦心事，心情低落，因此不愿与出租车司机交谈。故选C项。 (2)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“I thought of Aunt Nena. She was always the first to hit the floor at family parties. “Always give yourself a reason to dance and sing,” she used to say.(我想起了妮娜姑姑。她总是家庭聚会上第一个跳舞的人。“要永远给自己一个唱歌跳舞的理由”她常说。)”以及第四段中的“This song was like something Analia and I would have sung on one of our road trips. If she were here, she’d be singing even now.(这首歌就像我和安娜莉亚在公路旅行时会一起唱的那种。如果她还在，现在肯定也在跟着唱。)”可知，妮娜姑姑热爱跳舞唱歌，安娜莉亚喜欢和作者一起唱歌，两人都热爱音乐；结合第五段中的“They would want me to enjoy each day the way they’d taught me. To appreciate my job, my friends and my family, the subway and bus rides, talkative taxi drivers, and life.(她们会希望我按照她们教我的方式享受每一天 —— 珍惜我的工作、朋友与家人，珍惜地铁与公交的旅程、爱闲聊的出租车司机，更珍惜生活本身)”可推断，两人都懂得享受生活。因此，热爱音乐和生活是她们的共同点。故选B项。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“They would want me to enjoy each day the way they’d taught me.

I was shocked when he approached me after school one day to tell me that he liked chemistry, but failed to think that he was intelligent enough to attend college. He asked me what he should do with his life. I praised Juan’s talent and encouraged him not to waste it. His eyes lit up as I explained how scholarships, loans, and grants could make college possible, then invited him to join my advanced placement chemistry class next year. After promising to reconsider his future, Juan surprised me the next morning during my jog by appearing on my lawn, declaring cheerfully, “I’ve decided to take your AP class.” Juan was my best student that year in advanced placement chemistry. His skills and abilities continued to grow, and he never tired of mind-bending calculations or homework. He literally blossomed before my eyes. As the end of the year approached, Juan thanked me for my interest in his life. I was profoundly moved when he told me that those fifteen or twenty minutes that we had talked the previous year had changed his life. He got an A on the advanced placement chemistry exam and he was awarded enough scholarship assistance that enabled him to attend the local university. My experiences with Juan contributed to my decision to remain in the classroom. My love for my students and for the subject I teach has continued to grow over the years.

I simply said hello to the eighty-nine-year-old lady, and five years later we are what Ruby refers to as BFFs (Best Friends Forever). Over the years, I have realized that in an inter-generational friendship such as ours, each generation has so much to learn and teach each other. Ruby was also a nurse. I loved to hear about her nursing practice, and she was always eager to hear about today’s advances in healthcare. One day, I picked up all four of my grandchildren to visit Ruby. The next inter-generational friendships were born. Over the next few years, I witnessed the happiness that the children and Ruby shared. They developed a mutual love for each other that I wished we could recreate for other elderly people. This thought stayed with me until I retired from nursing a few years later. I spent the next eight months creating Ms. Ruby and the Gigi Squad: Friendship Comes in All Ages. This labor-of-love book records the many fun events the children created for Ruby over the years. They held surprise birthday parties, tea parties, and took her to school musicals. This book has taken my life by storm as it has received diverse awards and brought many opportunities to publicly speak about inter-generational friendships. My vision for the book was originally on a smaller scale and written to encourage families with children to visit an older adult. I was in awe when entire schools began approaching me to use the book for service projects. One activity that I included in the book, titled The Sunshine Bag Project, took off, and children began giving the elderly these special bags that included letters, cards, and small treasures. It was also a joy to know that in the next chapter of life, I could continue to make a difference to others — all because I had the courage to step out of my comfort zone and take a wonderful step toward authorship. 1.What has the author gained from her connection with Ruby? A. Elderly people feel lonely and require care. B. Nurses have a higher chance of building friendships. C. Modern healthcare can narrow generation gaps. D. Friendships offer valuable lessons between different age groups. 2.What is the main theme of the author’s book? A. The happiness found in friendships across generations. B. The positive effects of having friends. C. The value of offering healthcare services. D. The creation of enjoyable activities. 3.How did the book influence society? A. Schools encouraged children to read more. B. Children began making friends with elderly people. C. More writers created stories about the elderly. D. Service projects became very popular. 4.What is the importance of the book for the author? A. It gave her a steady source of income. B. It helped her get back in touch with old friends. C.

There, they often met a homeless man named Matt Faris, who would frequently shout on the street corner, sometimes disturbing their sleep. Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait, even though he hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in eight years. Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project. So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless. 1.What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris? A. He saw Faris had artistic talent. B. He read a book about love in action. C. He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting. D. He intended to found a nonprofit organization. 2.How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits? A. He donates it to charities. B. He uses it to expand his project. C. He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies. D. He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects. 3.What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3? A. He believes in giving without accepting. B. He prefers to decide how the money should be spent. C. He helps people based on their personal needs. D. He funds them to develop art-related projects. 4.What would be the best title for this passage? A. Painting for Homeless B. Art Can Cure Homelessness C. The Story of Matt Faris D. Selling Portraits for Charity 【答案】1. B　2. D　3. C　4. A 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Brian Peterson受到一本书的启发，开始为无家可归者画肖像，并创建了相关项目，通过艺术帮助无家可归者，改变人们对无家可归者的看法，促进社会理解和联系。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. (起初，Peterson和Faris没有任何互动，但在阅读了Love Does一书后，一切都改变了，这本书强调了爱在行动中的力量。受到这本书的启发，Peterson决定向Faris介绍自己)”可知，Peterson读了一本关于行动中的爱的书，受到了启发，决定去接近Faris。故选B项。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中“He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. (他通过色彩捕捉每个绘画对象的个性，然后出售这些肖像，与绘画对象平分收入。一半的资金被存入一个“爱心账户”，帮助他们解决个人需求)”可知，Peterson把卖肖像画赚来的钱平分，一半存进账户，另一半给绘画对象。故选D项。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. (然而，Peterson明白了直接询问人们想如何使用这笔钱的重要性，而不是假设他们最需要什么。例如，Faris用他的肖像所得的钱录制了一张专辑，而另一个绘画对象Kimberly Sondoval用这笔钱帮助支付女儿的房租)”可知，Peterson根据无家可归者的个人需要来帮助他们。故选C项。 (4)题解析： 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. (多年来，Peterson的项目不断扩大，他创立了Faces of Mankind，全国各地的艺术家都为无家可归的人画肖像。到目前为止，Peterson已经亲自画了41幅肖像画。他的工作不仅提供了经济援助，还促进了买家和绘画对象之间的理解和联系，许多买家与他们最初忽视的个人建立了友谊)”可知，文章主要讲述了Brian Peterson如何通过绘画肖像来帮助无家可归者，并通过这种方式改变人们对无家可归者的看法。A项“为无家可归者绘画”最能概括文章的主要内容，适合作为文章标题。B项“艺术可以治愈无家可归者”中“治愈”夸大了Peterson的行为和项目的影响；C项“Matt Faris的故事”仅提及Matt Faris，未体现Peterson的项目和它对多个无家可归者的影响；D项“为慈善事业出售肖像”虽然接近文章主题，但没有明确指出Peterson帮助的对象是无家可归者。故选A项。 Passage 2 主题语境03 人与自我-做人与做事 （25-26高一上·江苏锡山高中学·期中）On the first night of the new moon, I stand beneath an inky expanse of sky at a Northern California campsite. The darkness is so profound that my outstretched hand vanishes before my eyes. It’s not just an absence of light I’m experiencing: the darkness feels tangible, with a weight and texture of its own. The most well-known benefit of the darkness is the role it plays in releasing melatonin (褪黑素). This critical hormone doesn’t just help us sleep, but can also reduce DNA damage by boosting the body’s own genetic repair machinery. Evidence also reveals that the magic we feel in the darkness is closely associated with better mental health. My own fascination with the dark began in October of 2022, when I found myself floating in a raft (木筏) in the Arctic Sea. Our expedition guide had motored our rubber raft away from the artificial lights of our larger ship, turned the outer engine off, and instructed us to be silent. My shipmates and I looked up into the enormous night sky as stars moved in the black space above. The darkness was so dense that I couldn’t tell up from down, or where the night sky ended, and the inky sea began. I felt a surge of positive feelings flowing through me as I gazed at the stars on that dark Arctic night. The experience changed my relationship to darkness. As someone who’d always enjoyed the idea of going to bed early to get a good night’s sleep, I decided to turn off artificial lights and electronic devices earlier in the evening. I also began wondering what “dose” of dark each night was ideal for my health. Artists, poets and songwriters have long understood our fear of the dark as well as the comfort it can bring us. For me, it’s the Simon & Garfunkel hit song, The Sound of Silence — which starts off with the line “Hello darkness, my old friend” — that captures the essence of why escaping the light is necessary at times. It reminds us that some of our most profound moments of healing and insight happen in the dark. 1.Which of the following statements about darkness is NOT TRUE? A. It can better our sleep quality. B. It can improve our mental health. C. It can protect us from DNA damage. D. It can change our damaged genes. 2.What does the Arctic experience show about the author? A. He initially feared total darkness. B. He discovered a new scientific phenomenon. C. He regretted joining the expedition. D. His perception of darkness shifted greatly. 3.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. We should escape the light all the time. B. Artists, poets and songwriters fear darkness. C. Darkness brings some beautiful moments to us. D. The Sound of Silence captures the essence of light. 4.Which can be the best title of the passage? A. My Arctic Adventure: A Night Under the Stars. B. Beyond Fear: The Unseen Benefits of Darkness. C. Art and Science: How Darkness Heals Us. D. Melatonin: Nature’s Repair Mechanism. 【答案】1. D　2. D　3. C　4. B 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要讲述了作者在北极海上的黑暗夜晚中，对黑暗的新认识和感受。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段“This critical hormone doesn’t just help us sleep, but can also reduce DNA damage by boosting the body’s own genetic repair machinery. (这种关键的激素不仅能帮助我们入睡，还能通过增强人体自身的基因修复机制来减少 DNA 损伤。)”可知，黑暗有助于睡眠，并能通过增强身体自身的基因修复机制来减少DNA损伤。根据第二段“Evidence also reveals that the magic we feel in the darkness is closely associated with better mental health.( 研究结果还表明，在黑暗中所产生的那种神奇的感觉与良好的心理健康状况有着密切的关联。)”可知，黑暗与更好的心理健康有关。而D项“It can change our damaged genes.(它可以改变我们受损的基因)”未提及；因此D项说法不正确。故选D项。 (2)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第五段“The experience changed my relationship to darkness.( 这段经历改变了我对黑暗的看法。)”可知，这次北极的经历极大地改变了作者对黑暗的看法和感受。以及本段中“As someone who’d always enjoyed the idea of going to bed early to get a good night’s sleep, I decided to turn off artificial lights and electronic devices earlier in the evening. I also began wondering what “dose” of dark each night was ideal for my health.( 作为一个一直喜欢早睡以获得充足睡眠的人，我决定在晚上更早的时候关掉人造灯光和电子设备。同时，我也开始思考每晚适宜的黑暗程度对我的健康究竟有多重要。)”可知，作者之前可能也重视睡眠，但这次经历让他更加关注黑暗本身对健康的作用，从而主动减少夜间人造光源的使用，并思考理想的黑暗“剂量”。这表明他对黑暗的感知发生了巨大的转变。故选D项。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Artists, poets and songwriters have long understood our fear of the dark as well as the comfort it can bring us. (艺术家、诗人和词曲作者们早就深知我们对黑暗的恐惧，以及它能给我们带来的慰藉。)”可知，黑暗既能带来恐惧也能带来慰藉。再根据该段最后一句“It reminds us that some of our most profound moments of healing and insight happen in the dark.( 这让我们明白，我们那些最为深刻的成长与顿悟时刻往往发生在黑暗之中。)”可知，黑暗能带来深刻的疗愈和洞察时刻，这些可以被视为美好的时刻。故选C项。 (4)题解析： 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章描述了黑暗的深邃感，接着阐述了黑暗的科学益处（褪黑素、睡眠、DNA保护、心理健康），然后通过作者的北极经历，展示了黑暗带来的深刻情感体验以及个人态度的转变，最后引用艺术作品来强调黑暗在疗愈和顿悟方面的重要作用。选项B“Beyond Fear: The Unseen Benefits of Darkness(超越恐惧：黑暗的无形益处)”最全面、最准确地概括了文章主旨。故选B项。 主题语境04 人与自我-生活与学习 Passage 1 （25-26高一上·江苏徐州一中·期中）I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the wonderful way the words sounded. I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading. This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed. Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A’s on my tests. Sometimes, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument. Now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax. We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is an important part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless. 1.Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom’s hands？ A. She wanted mom to read the news to her. B. She couldn’t wait to tear the newspaper apart. C. She couldn’t help but stop mom from reading. D. She was eager to know what had happened. 2.According to Paragraph 3, the author’s reading of road signs shows___________. A. her own way to find herself B. her eagerness to develop her reading ability C. her growing desire to know the world around her D. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules 3.The author takes novel reading as a way to___________. A. explore a mysterious land B. develop an interest in learning C. get away from a confusing world D. learn about the adult world 4.What could be the best title for the passage？ A. The Pleasure of Reading B. Growing Up with Reading C. The Magic of Reading D. Reading Makes a Full Man 【答案】1. D　2. C　3. C　4. B 【解析】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要介绍了作者在阅读中成长的故事，从小时候通过阅读了解世界和长大后通过阅读远离现实的成长历程。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew．（我想像我妈妈一样，知道她知道的所有事情。）可知作者想从妈妈手里夺过报纸，因为她很想知道发生了什么事。故选D。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.（我在阅读方面的进步引起了我的好奇心，我想知道一切。我经常告诉我妈妈开慢点，这样我就能看清我们经过的所有路标。）可见作者对路标的解读表明她越来越渴望了解周围的世界。故选C。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中I find myself needing a way to escape． By opening a novel， I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character．（我发现自己需要一种逃避的方式，打开一本小说，我可以放下负担，进入一个奇妙而神秘的世界，在那里我现在是一个新角色。）可知作者把阅读小说作为一种摆脱纷乱世界的方法。故选C。 (4)题解析： 主旨大意题。结合文章第一段I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the wonderful way the words sounded.（我一直都知道读书是很重要的，因为我小时候的第一段记忆就是读书。没有一个晚上我不记得妈妈在我床边给我读故事书。我被那些美妙的声音所鼓舞。）以及文章主要介绍了作者在阅读中成长的故事，从小时候通过阅读了解世界和长大后通过阅读远离现实的成长历程。故选B。 Passage 2 （25-26高一上·江苏苏州中学·期中）My parents bought a house in Verona, New Jersey, in 1946 when I was 5. My sister, Merry, was born two years later. Our house was set far back from the road. It felt safe and adventurous with a big back yard and suburban wildlife. The main attraction for me, by far, was the massive tree in the front yard, which rose higher than I could see. We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old. Playing beneath Old Oak, my best friend, Justine, and I made toy horses. From Old Oak’s lowest branch, my dad hung a wooden board on a chain for a swing. The back-and-forth motion of the swing and rhythmic clicking of the chain comforted me. I’d lie under the green umbrella, admiring Old Oak’s height — my protector. Time passed. I was swinging less under the tree and more on the dance floor. Long after my father sold the house, Merry and I visited Old Oak when attending Verona High reunions. Justine called last October. A new owner had bought the property and taken down the tree. I found the real estate (房产) photo. In front of the house lay two huge lengths of trunk. I’d have to act fast to get a piece for Merry and me. The agent involved in the sale said that he would try to talk with the new owner. However, that attempt failed. Then I turned to John Zelenka, an artful arborist, for help. Fortunately, he sent photos of the remaining trunk pieces, contacted the owner, and suggested slices for my woodworking hobbyist son in New Hampshire. On a cold April morning, my husband and I met Zelenka to examine the pieces he’d cut after transporting the trunk. I couldn’t call Merry fast enough. She was excited. Trees give us such gifts from flowers to shade. My relationship with Old Oak has taken on a new form. 1.What do we know about Old Oak? A. It witnessed the author’s birth. B. It failed to survive a snowstorm. C. It was located at the side of a road. D. It was a tall, centuries-old tree. 2.Why did Justine call the author last October? A. To report an incident about Old Oak. B. To inquire about the author’s property. C. To recall their days spent under Old Oak. D. To invite her to attend Verona High reunions. 3.What can we infer about the author from the last two paragraphs? A. She was unable to contact Merry. B. She felt grateful and comforted. C. She decided to start a whole new life. D. She made wooden works out of the pieces. 4.What’s the writing purpose of the text? A. To detail the process of reusing a fallen tree. B. To explore how trees symbolize family traditions. C. To emphasize the importance of protecting ancient trees. D. To share a heartfelt personal experience with a beloved tree. 【答案】1. D　2. A　3. B　4. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍的是作者与童年老宅前的巨大橡树Old Oak之间的深厚情感以及它被砍倒后的感人故事。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old.(我们叫它老橡树。一位树艺师在1947年的暴风雪过后替我父母检查了老橡树，说它已经有300年的历史了)和第二段中的“I’d lie under the green umbrella, admiring Old Oak’s height — my protector. (我会躺在绿色的伞下，欣赏高大的老橡树——我的保护者)”可知，这棵老橡树非常高大，而且树龄已有几百年。故选D。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A new owner had bought the property and taken down the tree.(一位新主人买下了这块地，把树砍了下来。)”可知，Justine给作者打电话是为了告诉她有人买下了这处房产并把那棵树砍了。故选A。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Fortunately, he sent photos of the remaining trunk pieces, contacted the owner, and suggested slices for my woodworking hobbyist son in New Hampshire.(幸运的是，他给我寄来了剩下的树干碎片的照片，联系了主人，并向我在新罕布什尔州的木工爱好者儿子推荐了一些碎片)”以及最后一段中的“My relationship with Old Oak has taken on a new form.(我与老橡树的关系已经以一种新的形式延续。)”可推知，作者与老橡树的关系以新的方式继续，这让她感到安心。故选B。 (4)题解析： 推理判断题。根据首段中的“The main attraction for me, by far, was the massive tree in the front yard, which rose higher than I could see. We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old.(迄今为止，最吸引我的是前院那棵巨大的树，它高耸入云，我们称之为老橡树。1947年暴风雪后，一位为我父母检查老橡树的树艺师宣布它已有300年的历史。)”可知，作者从小就被老橡树吸引，结合下文介绍的从作者童年的回忆到得知它被砍伐后的反应，再到最终找到一种方式保存它的部分作为纪念可知，全文围绕作者与Old Oak的情感纽带展开，核心是个人与树的情感联结，所以本文的目的是分享一段与心爱树木有关的真挚个人经历。故选D。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题04 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 （25-26高一上·江苏苏州实验中学·期中）Last weekend, I took my 4-year-old grandson Oliver to the park. He had been pestering (纠缠) me to take him to the park to watch the ducks in the pond; I finally realized his wish. I went in thinking I’d be the teacher to teach him about the ducks, but that day, Oliver ended up teaching me more. He had no goals. 4-year-olds don’t need goals. As soon as we stepped 50 feet into the park, Oliver looked up at the sky, where big soft clouds moved slowly. He stood still, smiling, and found real joy in watching them. I’d long forgotten clouds’ magic: My mind was filled with things to do, but watching their slow movement could be soothing and reduce my worries and nervousness. Next, Oliver focused on the big trees, laughing as their branches shook in the wind. When a small bird jumped on the grass, he ran after it, laughing as though it were the funniest thing in the world. In that moment, nothing else mattered to him. His curiosity never disappeared, especially when it came to fallen leaves. He hunted for them, big and small, treating each one like a treasure. He only saw them as tools for play. No screens or toys were needed. Nearby, kids played with their parents, and dog walkers passed by. Oliver waved at everyone, holding out his hand for high fives with 4-and 5-year-olds, who smiled and said hi back. His mix of real words and kid talk didn’t stop him — he just wanted to connect, without judgment, or fear. The biggest lesson hit me then: live in the moment. He never asked the time, when we’d leave, or what would be next. Whether he was running after sticks, petting a dog, or running across the grass, he was entirely in the moment. That hour with Oliver reminded me of the wonder we lose as adults, and of many things we can learn from a child’s simple, unplanned joy. 1.Why did the author take Oliver to the park? A. To clean the park. B. To feed the ducks. C. To act as a teacher. D. To watch the ducks. 2.What does the underlined word “soothing” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Dangerous. B. Confusing. C. Comforting. D. Changeable. 3.What do we know about Oliver from paragraph 3? A. He was afraid of meeting people. B. He had fun playing toys in the park. C. He had a strong curiosity about fallen leaves. D. He didn’t get along well with other children in the park. 4.What can we learn from the text? A. Knowledge is power. B. Now is all that counts. C. Friendship comes from getting together. D. Nothing is more important than education. 主题语境02 人与社会-社会服务与人际沟通 （25-26高一上·江苏海安高级中学·期中）Ben was eleven years old when he spotted his neighbour, Julie, working in her garden. He popped his head over the fence, and said to her, “I’ve seen you’re very good with a lawn mower (割草机) and gardening tools. The hedge (树篱) over the pathway near here has become so overgrown that I am planning to cut it back. Would you like to help out?” Julie loved the idea of helping Ben and their community. They agreed to cut the hedge the following Sunday. Ben’s brother Josh, aged 8 at the time, also came along to help. All three of them tackled away at it until they reduced it. They posted photos of their handiwork on “Our Malmesbury”, their local Facebook Group. The community reaction was amazing. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury seemed to embrace (欣然接受) their team spirit and felt inspired to follow their lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep their town tidy. With many willing hands, their town has transformed. Before, the town looked a bit run down, but now, the place looks cleaner and tidier. To keep the projects going, Ben created a Facebook page and website to support their projects. Their Facebook Page “Helping The Community Of Malmesbury” currently sits at 669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. Ben also managed to sort funding through local businesses and associations. The funding has helped them obtain trees, plants, tools, and gardening equipment. When community members plan a clean-up, they can contact them on the website to access any tools and equipment they need to complete a project. Ben is so pleased that 6 years later, the clean-up campaign is still in full-swing. He has just been so moved by the support over the years that he cannot thank the community enough. Their mission will not stop. 1.What did Ben invite Julie to do? A. Mow the lawn. B. Cut the hedge. C. Repair the fence. D. Help a neighbor. 2.What did the community do after seeing their post? A. They cleaned their town. B. They shared more photos. C. They embraced each other. D. They ignore the children’s post. 3.What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Ways to raise funds. B. Scenes of doing cleaning. C. Efforts to run the projects. D. Feelings of managing the projects. 4.What can we learn from the text? A. No pains, no gains. B. You harvest what you sow. C. More hurry, less speed. D. Many hands make light work. 主题语境03 人与自我-生活与学习 Passage 1 （25-26高一上·江苏扬州中学·期中）Last summer, I went to France for a holiday. I was so excited but also a little nervous because my French was not good. One hot afternoon, after exploring the city, I felt really tired. I wanted to tell my French friend, Claire, “I am a little tired.” I carefully said the words I’d learned: “Je suis un pue fatigue.” But Claire burst out laughing. My face felt hot. What had I done wrong? Claire explained, “In French, there are words that sound similar but have very different meanings. ‘peu’ means ‘a little,’ but if you pronounce it differently, it can sound like ‘pue’, which means ‘stinks’ — like something smells bad. So, instead of saying you needed a rest, it sounded like you were saying you smelled bad and were tired” This awkward (尴尬的) moment was a real eye-opener for me. It made me realize just how daunting pronunciation can be in a foreign language. Even small differences in pronunciation can completely change the meaning of what you’re trying to say. The same is true in English, for example, “ship” (a large boat) and “sheep” (a woolly animal) sound very similar, but they mean totally different things. Now, I pay extra attention to how words sound and what they mean. And if I mix them up again? I’ll just laugh along. After all, laughing is part of learning — even if it’s a bit stinky sometimes. 1.Why was the author nervous about his holiday in France? A. He was poor at French. B. He never went abroad. C. He had no friends there. D. He was in short of money. 2.What awkward moment did the author meet? A. He got a wrong person. B. He made a pronunciation mistake. C. He was tricked by the locals. D. He spelt a word incorrectly. 3.What does the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Easy. B. Natural. C. Difficult. D. Clear. 4.How did the author’s experience in France affect him? A. He smelled bad and was tired. B. He hated learning foreign languages. C. He no longer considered Claire as a friend. D. He became open to mistakes in language learning.

Kelley’s winning portfolio featured 10 photos taken over the past 13 years. “It’s a real honor,” Kelley says. “I was blown away. My goal has always been to share Alaska one image at a time, but now 10 of my images did just that. I think for a wildlife photographer it’s the world’s highest praise.” Although he’s originally from Buffalo, New York, Kelley said he considers himself a “Southeast guy”. He always thought his love for photography growing up was just a hobby, not something he could turn into a career. That changed when he began taking photography classes at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. After graduating, Kelley was able to successfully secure a photography job in Juneau, and after moving to the capital city in 1979, he never looked back. “I fell in love with Juneau,” he says. Kelley says he was drawn to Anan Creek and the animals surrounding it because the location is Southeast Alaska. He says each photo shows the continuous rain, towering trees and green forest that makes the region unlike other parts of Alaska. But, beyond the location, what brings the area to life is the plentiful wildlife that lives among the rainforest. Kelley says that for each of the chosen 10 photos, thousands were taken to find those exact moments. Each visit included three to four days standing on a viewing platform in hopes of catching those special moments. Moments like that come in the blink of an eye, but when shot, it makes all those long hours of waiting worth it. 1.What do the underlined words “blown away” probably mean in paragraph 2? A. Thankful. B. Excited. C. Anxious. D. Confused. 2.What experience was important for Kelley becoming a photographer? A. His visit to Southeast Alaska. B. His love for award-winning photos. C. His college learning experience. D. His meeting with plentiful wildlife. 3.What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Why Anan Creek is attractive to Kelley. B. How Kelley describes his special days. C. Why wildlife is plentiful in Anan Creek. D. How Kelley takes those winning photos. 4.What quality of Kelley is shown in the last paragraph? A. Curious. B. Brave. C. Calm. D. Patient. 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 Passage 1 （25-26高一上·江苏盐城五校联考·期中）I took a taxi in front of my office. “Hello,” the driver said cheerfully. I didn’t want to make small talk with a stranger, so I gave him my home address without even a hello back. I usually took the subway or a bus after work. But it had been a bad day. I had just come out of a difficult meeting. Five months before, I’d lost my friend Analia. Two weeks earlier my aunt had passed away. I had no time to process the loss with one coming after the other. I just wanted to be alone with my sadness. At a red light, the driver asked, “Could I put on some music?” I nodded an okay. Maybe music would help keep us in our own worlds. An old merengue (默朗格舞曲) filled the back seat. I thought of Aunt Nena. She was always the first to hit the floor at family parties. “Always give yourself a reason to dance and sing,” she used to say. The DJ said, “Friendships can be beautiful, can’t they? This song is for all the good friends.” This song was like something Analia and I would have sung on one of our road trips. If she were here, she’d be singing even now. Was that what Analia and Aunt Nena would want for me? The merengue, the pop songs — my aunt and my friend brought music to my life. They would want me to enjoy each day the way they’d taught me. To appreciate my job, my friends and my family, the subway and bus rides, talkative taxi drivers, and life. “Mind if I sing to this one?” the driver asked. “The music feels better when others can hear you sing.” “It sure does,” I said. I opened my window to let the wind in, to let life in, and to sing with a taxi driver for all of New York and Aunt Nena and Analia to hear. 1.Why did the author refuse to make conversation with the taxi driver? A. She was still busy with her work. B. She noticed the driver was not friendly. C. She had been having a tough time recently. D. She didn’t want to turn the driver’s attention away. 2.Which of the following did Aunt Nena and Analia share? A. Loving the same songs. B. Enjoying music and life. C. Being popular among people. D. Placing importance on friendships. 3.What lesson might the author have learnt from Aunt Nena and Analia? A. Live in the present. B. Be kind to strangers. C. Be ready to help others. D. Try hard to be talkative. 4.What happened to the author according to the last paragraph? A. She got very tired of the taxi ride. B. She made friends with the driver. C. She couldn’t breathe in the car. D. She opened her heart to others. Passage 2 （25-26高一上·江苏无锡天一中学·期中）Juan came from a very poor, single-parent home. Throughout the year, I noticed that Juan had an unusual ability to solve equations (方程), and to correlate abstract relationships between concepts. I was shocked when he approached me after school one day to tell me that he liked chemistry, but failed to think that he was intelligent enough to attend college. He asked me what he should do with his life. I praised Juan’s talent and encouraged him not to waste it. His eyes lit up as I explained how scholarships, loans, and grants could make college possible, then invited him to join my advanced placement chemistry class next year. After promising to reconsider his future, Juan surprised me the next morning during my jog by appearing on my lawn, declaring cheerfully, “I’ve decided to take your AP class.” Juan was my best student that year in advanced placement chemistry. His skills and abilities continued to grow, and he never tired of mind-bending calculations or homework. He literally blossomed before my eyes. As the end of the year approached, Juan thanked me for my interest in his life. I was profoundly moved when he told me that those fifteen or twenty minutes that we had talked the previous year had changed his life. He got an A on the advanced placement chemistry exam and he was awarded enough scholarship assistance that enabled him to attend the local university. My experiences with Juan contributed to my decision to remain in the classroom. My love for my students and for the subject I teach has continued to grow over the years. I consider myself most fortunate to be a chemistry teacher, and to have been a part of so many young lives, hopes, and dreams 1.What was Juan’s initial (最初的) attitude towards his own academic (学业的) abilities? A. He was confident. B. He was confused. C. He was uncaring. D. He was doubtful. 2.Which of the following best explains “literally blossomed before my eyes” underlined in paragraph 3? A. became physically taller. B. Improved his social skills. C. Showed amazing growth. D. Performed lab experiments. 3.Which of the following best describes the teacher? A. Helpful and considerate. B. Honest and calm. C. Brave and intelligent. D. Selfless and determined. 4.What was the long-term effect of Juan’s story on the teacher? A. Her winning teaching awards. B. Her changing career. C. Her focusing on poor students. D. Her staying in teaching. Passage 3 （25-26高一上·江苏南京大学附中·期中）Our first introduction occurred while I was teaching a nursing course at the care center. “You need to meet our new resident, Ruby!” the charge nurse said. I simply said hello to the eighty-nine-year-old lady, and five years later we are what Ruby refers to as BFFs (Best Friends Forever). Over the years, I have realized that in an inter-generational friendship such as ours, each generation has so much to learn and teach each other. Ruby was also a nurse. I loved to hear about her nursing practice, and she was always eager to hear about today’s advances in healthcare. One day, I picked up all four of my grandchildren to visit Ruby. The next inter-generational friendships were born. Over the next few years, I witnessed the happiness that the children and Ruby shared. They developed a mutual love for each other that I wished we could recreate for other elderly people. This thought stayed with me until I retired from nursing a few years later. I spent the next eight months creating Ms. Ruby and the Gigi Squad: Friendship Comes in All Ages. This labor-of-love book records the many fun events the children created for Ruby over the years. They held surprise birthday parties, tea parties, and took her to school musicals. This book has taken my life by storm as it has received diverse awards and brought many opportunities to publicly speak about inter-generational friendships. My vision for the book was originally on a smaller scale and written to encourage families with children to visit an older adult. I was in awe when entire schools began approaching me to use the book for service projects. One activity that I included in the book, titled The Sunshine Bag Project, took off, and children began giving the elderly these special bags that included letters, cards, and small treasures. It was also a joy to know that in the next chapter of life, I could continue to make a difference to others — all because I had the courage to step out of my comfort zone and take a wonderful step toward authorship. 1.What has the author gained from her connection with Ruby? A. Elderly people feel lonely and require care. B. Nurses have a higher chance of building friendships. C. Modern healthcare can narrow generation gaps. D. Friendships offer valuable lessons between different age groups. 2.What is the main theme of the author’s book? A. The happiness found in friendships across generations. B. The positive effects of having friends. C. The value of offering healthcare services. D. The creation of enjoyable activities. 3.How did the book influence society? A. Schools encouraged children to read more. B. Children began making friends with elderly people. C. More writers created stories about the elderly. D. Service projects became very popular. 4.What is the importance of the book for the author? A. It gave her a steady source of income. B. It helped her get back in touch with old friends. C. It allowed her to make contributions to others’ lives. D. It helped her realize her childhood dream. 主题语境02 人与社会-社会服务与人际沟通 Passage 1 （25-26高一上·江苏南京十三中·期中）In 2015, Brian Peterson, a car designer for Kia Motors, moved to Santa Ana, California, with his wife, Vanessa. There, they often met a homeless man named Matt Faris, who would frequently shout on the street corner, sometimes disturbing their sleep. Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait, even though he hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in eight years. Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project. So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless. 1.What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris? A. He saw Faris had artistic talent. B. He read a book about love in action. C. He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting. D. He intended to found a nonprofit organization. 2.How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits? A. He donates it to charities. B. He uses it to expand his project. C. He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies. D. He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects. 3.What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3? A. He believes in giving without accepting. B. He prefers to decide how the money should be spent. C. He helps people based on their personal needs. D. He funds them to develop art-related projects. 4.What would be the best title for this passage? A. Painting for Homeless B. Art Can Cure Homelessness C. The Story of Matt Faris D. Selling Portraits for Charity Passage 2 主题语境03 人与自我-做人与做事 （25-26高一上·江苏锡山高中学·期中）On the first night of the new moon, I stand beneath an inky expanse of sky at a Northern California campsite. The darkness is so profound that my outstretched hand vanishes before my eyes. It’s not just an absence of light I’m experiencing: the darkness feels tangible, with a weight and texture of its own. The most well-known benefit of the darkness is the role it plays in releasing melatonin (褪黑素). This critical hormone doesn’t just help us sleep, but can also reduce DNA damage by boosting the body’s own genetic repair machinery. Evidence also reveals that the magic we feel in the darkness is closely associated with better mental health. My own fascination with the dark began in October of 2022, when I found myself floating in a raft (木筏) in the Arctic Sea. Our expedition guide had motored our rubber raft away from the artificial lights of our larger ship, turned the outer engine off, and instructed us to be silent. My shipmates and I looked up into the enormous night sky as stars moved in the black space above. The darkness was so dense that I couldn’t tell up from down, or where the night sky ended, and the inky sea began. I felt a surge of positive feelings flowing through me as I gazed at the stars on that dark Arctic night. The experience changed my relationship to darkness. As someone who’d always enjoyed the idea of going to bed early to get a good night’s sleep, I decided to turn off artificial lights and electronic devices earlier in the evening. I also began wondering what “dose” of dark each night was ideal for my health. Artists, poets and songwriters have long understood our fear of the dark as well as the comfort it can bring us. For me, it’s the Simon & Garfunkel hit song, The Sound of Silence — which starts off with the line “Hello darkness, my old friend” — that captures the essence of why escaping the light is necessary at times. It reminds us that some of our most profound moments of healing and insight happen in the dark. 1.Which of the following statements about darkness is NOT TRUE? A. It can better our sleep quality. B. It can improve our mental health. C. It can protect us from DNA damage. D. It can change our damaged genes. 2.What does the Arctic experience show about the author? A. He initially feared total darkness. B. He discovered a new scientific phenomenon. C. He regretted joining the expedition. D. His perception of darkness shifted greatly. 3.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. We should escape the light all the time. B. Artists, poets and songwriters fear darkness. C. Darkness brings some beautiful moments to us. D. The Sound of Silence captures the essence of light. 4.Which can be the best title of the passage? A. My Arctic Adventure: A Night Under the Stars. B. Beyond Fear: The Unseen Benefits of Darkness. C. Art and Science: How Darkness Heals Us. D. Melatonin: Nature’s Repair Mechanism. 主题语境04 人与自我-生活与学习 Passage 1 （25-26高一上·江苏徐州一中·期中）I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the wonderful way the words sounded. I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, “I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning,” made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading. This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said, “The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf,” I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed. Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A’s on my tests. Sometimes, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument. Now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax. We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is an important part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless. 1.Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom’s hands？ A. She wanted mom to read the news to her. B. She couldn’t wait to tear the newspaper apart. C. She couldn’t help but stop mom from reading. D. She was eager to know what had happened. 2.According to Paragraph 3, the author’s reading of road signs shows___________. A. her own way to find herself B. her eagerness to develop her reading ability C. her growing desire to know the world around her D. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules 3.The author takes novel reading as a way to___________. A. explore a mysterious land B. develop an interest in learning C. get away from a confusing world D. learn about the adult world 4.What could be the best title for the passage？ A. The Pleasure of Reading B. Growing Up with Reading C. The Magic of Reading D. Reading Makes a Full Man Passage 2 （25-26高一上·江苏苏州中学·期中）My parents bought a house in Verona, New Jersey, in 1946 when I was 5. My sister, Merry, was born two years later. Our house was set far back from the road. It felt safe and adventurous with a big back yard and suburban wildlife. The main attraction for me, by far, was the massive tree in the front yard, which rose higher than I could see. We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old. Playing beneath Old Oak, my best friend, Justine, and I made toy horses. From Old Oak’s lowest branch, my dad hung a wooden board on a chain for a swing. The back-and-forth motion of the swing and rhythmic clicking of the chain comforted me. I’d lie under the green umbrella, admiring Old Oak’s height — my protector. Time passed. I was swinging less under the tree and more on the dance floor. Long after my father sold the house, Merry and I visited Old Oak when attending Verona High reunions. Justine called last October. A new owner had bought the property and taken down the tree. I found the real estate (房产) photo. In front of the house lay two huge lengths of trunk. I’d have to act fast to get a piece for Merry and me. The agent involved in the sale said that he would try to talk with the new owner. However, that attempt failed. Then I turned to John Zelenka, an artful arborist, for help. Fortunately, he sent photos of the remaining trunk pieces, contacted the owner, and suggested slices for my woodworking hobbyist son in New Hampshire. On a cold April morning, my husband and I met Zelenka to examine the pieces he’d cut after transporting the trunk. I couldn’t call Merry fast enough. She was excited. Trees give us such gifts from flowers to shade. My relationship with Old Oak has taken on a new form. 1.What do we know about Old Oak? A. It witnessed the author’s birth. B. It failed to survive a snowstorm. C. It was located at the side of a road. D. It was a tall, centuries-old tree. 2.Why did Justine call the author last October? A. To report an incident about Old Oak. B. To inquire about the author’s property. C. To recall their days spent under Old Oak. D. To invite her to attend Verona High reunions. 3.What can we infer about the author from the last two paragraphs? A. She was unable to contact Merry. B. She felt grateful and comforted. C. She decided to start a whole new life. D. She made wooden works out of the pieces. 4.What’s the writing purpose of the text? A. To detail the process of reusing a fallen tree. B. To explore how trees symbolize family traditions. C. To emphasize the importance of protecting ancient trees. D. To share a heartfelt personal experience with a beloved tree. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题04 阅读理解（记叙文） 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 【答案】1. D　2. C　3. C　4. B 主题语境02 人与社会-社会服务与人际沟通 【答案】1. B　2. A　3. C　4.
