专题04 阅读理解（说明文）（广州专用） 主题01 人与社会——家庭生活、亲子关系 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州白云区·期中） Family life is like a strong tree with many branches. Each branch shows a different part of family relationships, daily life, and time spent together. In most families, people share not only a house but also their feelings and experiences. They eat meals together, talk about what happened during their day, enjoy happy moments, and help each other when things are difficult. These everyday activities build strong family connections. Of course, family life isn’t always perfect. Sometimes parents and children disagree, or brothers and sisters argue (争论). These small problems are normal when people live together. What’s important isn’t avoiding all arguments, but how family members solve them. By talking openly and trying to understand each other, families can actually become closer through these experiences.     Today, family life has changed in some ways. Many parents have jobs that keep them busy, and children spend much time at school with homework and activities. Even with busy schedules, families find special ways to stay close. Some plan regular fun activities like watching movies together or playing games. Others enjoy going out on weekends. These shared moments help keep family bonds (纽带) strong. The true importance of family life comes from having a place where you are always listened to and cared for. In such a home when you have a bad day or face a difficulty, you know you are not alone. Your family is there to support you, share your feelings, and help you find solutions. This loving and safe environment is what truly helps each person grow, become more confident, and feel strong enough to handle any problem in life. 1．What is the main idea of the passage? A．To list different family activities. B．To explain why family problems happen. C．To compare old and new family styles. D．To talk about what makes family life important. 2．What does the author think about family arguments? A．They are bad and should be avoided. B．They are normal and can be fixed. C．They mean the family is broken. D．They only happen in modern families. 3．What does the author say about today’s family life? A．Busy lives make family time impossible. B．Families don’t eat together any more. C．Families still find time to be together even when busy. D．Children like school more than family. 4．According to the passage, what is most important in a family? A．Having a big and nice house. B．Never having any disagreements. C．Making a loving and supportive home. D．Always following family rules. Passage 2 （25-26九年级上·广州从化区·期中） Many people think only school kids disagree with their parents. But that’s not true. In fact, parents and children of all ages can have communication problems—this is what we call the “generation gap (代沟).” But the good news is, we can bridge the generation gap with simple ways. Anger makes communication hard. So don’t argue with your parents. If you shout at your parents, they won’t listen to your ideas. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. You can stop talking first. Go to your room, take a deep breath, or walk around to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you still don’t want to talk face to face, try writing a letter. It’s easier to express your true feelings on paper without getting mad. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. For example, Michael wanted to buy a motorcycle, but his mom disagreed because she worried about his safety. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. If your parents won’t compromise on something, don’t get upset. Instead, show them you love and respect them. This keeps your relationship strong. Your parents’ ideas about life might be different from yours. To help them understand you, you can tell your parents what you care about and why. When your parents know your values, they’ll see why you make certain choices. This helps close the generation gap. In short, the generation gap isn’t hard to fix. If you remember these ways—stay calm when angry, compromise, and share your values, you’ll get along better with your parents. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. So why not try these tips? It’s definitely worth the effort! 1．According to the passage, the “generation gap” mainly refers to a communication problem between ________. A．teenagers and their friends B．parents and their young children C．people with different life experiences and values D．school kids and their teachers at school 2．If there’s a generation gap between you and your parents, you’d better ________. A．have a walk with them B．share your values with them C．agree with them all the time D．keep away from them for a while 3．Why does the writer talk about Michael and his mother? A．To explain how compromise helps. B．To show parents often disagree with kids’ ideas. C．To tell kids to listen to parents’ advice on important things. D．To warn teens not to ride motorcycles without parents’ permission. 4．What can be inferred from the passage? A．There are many serious problems in families today. B．Parents’ values are usually different from their children’s. C．The generation gap can be reduced if children take proper action. D．Compromise is the most important way to bridge the generation gap. Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·广州市广奥教育集团·期中） We all love our parents and they love us too. However, misunderstandings can still happen if we don’t understand each other’s ways of expressing love—a challenge especially common in parent-child relationships. So, it is important to express our love in the right way. The way someone expresses love is called their “love language”. In the book The 5 Love Languages, Gary Chapman introduces five key love languages that people use to express and experience love: words of affirmation (肯定), quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. It helps us understand how different people show and receive love. Because of generational differences (代际差异), our love languages are usually different from our parents’. For example, my parents show love through acts of service, like cooking for me. I, however, prefer to express love through words of affirmation. This difference created a big disagreement between us at the beginning. I would try to talk to them, but they wouldn’t answer. They would try to help me by cooking, but I would get impatient. Things changed when I began to recognize their purposes. To connect with your parents, speak their love language. If they value quality time, spend more time with them. If they like receiving gifts, give them something meaningful. If they love words of affirmation, praise them. This way, they can recognize and accept your love more easily. Avoid forcing them to accept a love language they don’t understand, like always asking for hugs if they’re uncomfortable with it. Instead, learn to speak their language. This will lead to better and faster results in your relationship. Understanding and accepting your parents’ love language can help bridge the gap between generations. It’s not just about expressing love in your own way; it’s about recognizing and respecting how your parents express their love. By doing so, you can keep a deeper and more meaningful connection with your parents. Remember, love is best expressed when it is understood. 1．According to the first paragraph parent-child relationships may be better if ________. A．parents and children love each other. B．parents try to offer good services to children C．parents can communicate in different languages D．parents and children use the right way of expressing love 2．What can we learn from the passage? A．The writer and his parents like the same kind of food. B．The writer expressed love in speech more than in action. C．Parents can easily accept the way their children show love. D．Children’s language of love is always similar to their parents’. 3．What does the underlined phrase “bridge the gap” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Build a real bridge between two places. B．Remember happy moments with parents. C．Give expensive gifts to family members. D．Reduce differences and improve connections. 4．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To introduce a book about family love. B．To explain how to choose perfect gifts for parents. C．To compare ways of expressing love between generations. D．To stress the importance of understanding different love languages. Passage4 （25-26九年级上·广州市越秀区第二中学·期中） When you have problems with math, you usually ask teachers or parents for help. But now, doctors can help you too! On October 8, the Shanghai Children’s Medical Center opened the Spatial and Mathematical Learning Difficulties Clinic. According to the clinic, spatial cognitive (空间认知的) ability plays an important role in a student’s ability to deal with math problems. The clinic also noted that the lack of spatial imagination can affect students’ performance in subjects like math, physics, and chemistry. The clinic’s task is to provide support for students who have difficulties understanding spatial problems in math, as well as electric fields in physics and chemical structures in chemistry. They help find out why kids have trouble learning by doing careful tests and checks. After finding out what stops kids from learning, the clinic gives a full plan which includes finding out the problem, giving guidance, teaching parents, and managing medicine. With 316 yuan per patient, the clinic says there’s no age limit because adults can also have the same problems. Zhang Zeng, a math teacher from Shanghai, expressed his support. “If we can make sure the reasons behind students’ weak spatial reasoning through medical analysis and make necessary changes, it will be good for their studies in math.” Zhang said. However, experts remind parents that these clinics may help students, but they can’t magically turn them into top students. It’s more important to have realistic expectations. Shi Ping from Tianjin Children’s Hospital told China Daily that putting too much pressure on kids can sometimes make learning harder. Parents should think about how they teach their kids and consider making some changes. After all, just as an expert said, “Doing well in school shouldn’t be the only thing that matters in a child’s life.” 1．Which of the following best describes the main work of the Shanghai clinic? A．It helps students improve math grades by teaching difficult skills. B．It trains parents to help their kids develop spatial imagination at home. C．It makes a perfect plan to be a top student at school for all the students. D．It finds causes of students’ spatial learning problems and offers support. 2．What is math teacher Zhang Zeng’s attitude towards the clinic? A．He believes the clinic helps with spatial math problems. B．He worries that the clinic brings extra pressure to students. C．He thinks medical analysis can solve math problems for students. D．He suggests the clinic should focus more on students than on adults. 3．The underlined word “realistic” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ________. A．high B．reasonable C．common D．special 4．What’s the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A．To call on parents to take their children to the clinic. B．To explain why spatial cognitive ability is so important for students. C．To introduce a new kind of medical clinic and give some suggestions. D．To tell parents that doing well in school isn't the only important thing. 主题02人与社会——青少年问题与建议 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州市花都区·期中） Advice for Everyday Problems Life is full of challenges. Some common problems can still make us feel bad. Here is some useful advice to help with the everyday situations. Q1: My friends go out without me. I feel sad. What should I do?It’s normal to feel sad when friends don’t include you. First, you should tell them about your feeling. They may not know they make you sad. If things don’t get better, then you can join some new clubs. There you can meet new people who will be nice to you. Q2: I feel very nervous before exams. What can I do? Worrying about exams is common. To be less stressed, make a good study plan and get enough sleep. Try taking deep breaths before the test.

Even when their guts (直觉) are telling them that someone is crossing a line with them, it’s difficult for them to express that the situation is making them uncomfortable. For this reason, teens need to learn how to set boundaries (界限) with others. Although boundaries are different for everyone, they help teens set limits with others in order to protect themselves. Setting boundaries allows teens to communicate with other people about what is OK and what is not OK with them, and it is necessary for teen friendships as well. Explanation of Boundaries Boundaries are limits that teens set to protect themselves in some way from being hurt or bullied. As an expression of self-esteem, boundaries let people know who they are, what they value, and how they want to be treated. In addition, boundaries help to create space between teens and other people when they need them. Importance of Boundaries Learning how to set boundaries is an important part of growing up. It’s also necessary to develop relationships that are respectful, supportive, and healthy. However, many teens have trouble setting boundaries with their friends. When it happens, it puts them at risk for everything from unhealthy friendships to bullying. Setting boundaries with other people not only helps keep teens safe but also helps protect their mental health. If teens meet bad people in their lives, such as unkind friends or adults that make them feel uncomfortable, they need to set boundaries with those people, too. Being in an unhealthy relationship can cause bad results. Ways of Setting Boundaries In fact, teens will run into a number of different situations throughout their lives that challenge their values and beliefs. Knowing how to set boundaries can help them stay safe and be true to who they are. Please have a look at the following ways. 1．Which one is a good example of setting boundaries according to the passage? A．George talked about his hobby with his best friend. B．Jerry refused to communicate with his parents and friends. C．Kelly asked her parents for help when she was in trouble.

C．Knowing the value of friends. D．Building up healthy relationships. 3．What does the underlined word “self-esteem” mean in paragraph 3? A．little interest in one’s own value B．doubt about one’s pride and worth C．confidence in one’s own abilities and worth D．feelings of being unworthy of love or respect 4．What may the writer talk about in the next paragraph? A．The tips for setting boundaries. B．The different types of boundaries. C．The influence of setting boundaries. D．The examples of setting boundaries. Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·广州市天河区骏景中学·期中） Conflict (冲突) happens when two people disagree because of their own goals, values, or beliefs. It’s not always as simple as an argument. Instead, conflict is what happens right before the argument; it’s what the two people disagree about before they start calling each other names. What may cause conflict? Parents and teenagers have many chances to experience conflict with one another. Teenage years are a time when independence and parental influence fight, since teens are able to think on their own but still live with parents who have rules and expectations for them. Teenagers don’t necessarily hold the same beliefs and values as their parents, and their goal to have fun often conflicts with their parents’ goal to keep them safe. If kids don’t come back home at the time when they’re supposed to, their parents will get worried. A worried parent becomes a scolding (责骂的) parent. The conflict happens. Sometimes, teens want to have noisy fun while their parents want to sleep. This is a common conflict that happens every day. Also, parents and teenagers usually prefer different types of music. So when parents don’t like the music the kids are listening to, they are more likely to tell them to turn it down. Then conflict begins. This may not be totally true. However, one thing is for sure: parents might use the teenager’s exam results to judge (判断) him/her. Every time the parents’ expectations aren’t met, they will scold their kids. And the conflict happens. How to deal with conflict? See each other as friends in the common goals you agree on. Such goals usually include keeping teens safe and seeing them make success. Pay attention to these goals to avoid getting unsatisfied with each other. List possible solutions to the conflict together. You can try listing creative ideas, whether they seem reasonable or not. Creativity is your friend when you’re solving any problem in life, including conflict with others. 1．What does the underlined phrase “calling each other names” mean? A．Singing loudly to each other. B．Speaking angrily to each other. C．Making a call to someone. D．Making someone feel at home. 2．Why do teenagers and parents get into conflict? A．They have different beliefs and values. B．They live independent lives separately. C．They hold common views on teenage years. D．They don’t show much patience to each other. 3．How can a teenager solve conflict with parents? A．By writing down creative ideas with parents. B．By writing an article about different opinions. C．By spending more time talking with parents. D．By making parents change their opinions. 4．In which section of the magazine Family would you probably read this article? A．Activities. B．Rules. C．Relationship. D．Possessions. 主题03人与自我——自我管理与自我提升 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州市天河区骏景中学·期中） Looking your best means finding out what’s nice about you and showing that side to the world.

To help students do this important task, schools across China are providing more classes and activities on self-knowledge. Liu Yue, a teacher from Chengdu Yucai Middle School, has recently given her students a useful tool. “It’s called the Johari Window, developed by two psychologists (心理学家),” said Liu. “It has four areas about one’s self: open area (that everyone knows), hidden area (that only you know), blind spot (that everyone knows except you) and unknown area (that nobody knows). Using this tool, students did a good job seeing themselves through a new lens (透镜).” “I’m most curious about my blind spot,” said eighth-grader Yang Manfei. “So I did a survey with my friends.” The results showed that Yang easily gets anxious and impatient because of procrastination (拖延). “That’s a bad habit I’ve never realized!” Yang said. “I find the unknown area most amazing,” said Sun Boyin. “It means everyone has lots of potential.” When Sun entered middle school, he was not good at math. “But I set a goal and did lots of math exercises. Now I’m much better at math. The unknown part of my math ability is getting clearer!” Sun said. When it comes to the hidden area, most students keep silent. “I’m scared to show my secrets deep down,” said Li Yixuan. “Then one classmate stood up and said his favourite cartoon is Tom and Jerry. I thought: Am I brave enough to show my childish hobby? Perhaps not. I don’t want my classmates to see me as a silly kid. But then I realized that I don’t find that classmate silly. I think he has the courage to be himself.” ▲ --- that’s the best lesson you need to learn. 1．What is the Johari Window for? A．Knowing oneself well. B．Helping students do homework.

He used this picture in mind to help him when working out the “theory of relativity (相对论)”. “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” said Einstein. Daydreaming, called “thought experiments” by Einstein, can make you have wild imaginations like flying around in space. It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas, memories and experiences that aren’t happening right now. It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party. According to health organizations, daydreaming for a while each day can improve your emotional (情绪的) health and creativity. ________. For example, after a long day at work or a disagreement with a friend, let your mind fly away to the picture of a big meal or the friend’s smiling face. Imagining how you’re going to speak to the public is like having practiced the scene in your head before for many times, which can make you feel quieter. A few minutes to let your mind wander (漫游) and hope for good things to happen lower negative (消极的) thinking. Guo Qiang, a psychologist, suggests we should make time to daydream. “It can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings.” he said. However, try not to let your mind be missing when you need to focus in class or cross the road. Instead, find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth. Daydreaming encourages creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits (限制) to what you can do or who you are. To encourage creativity, think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you. Research shows that people often come up with more ways to solve problems after they’ve “had a dream”. So next time you’re stuck with homework, stop for a moment and see where you go in the new world. 1．Daydreaming can make people ________. a. fly around b. think freely c. walk slowly d. feel quieter e. think ahead f. inspire creativity A．a, b, f B．b, c, d C．a, c, f D．b, d, e 2．Which of the following can be put in ________? A．Daydreaming makes you forget difficult things. B．Daydreaming means unreal but joyful things. C．Daydreaming about something pleasant helps you deal with worries and stress. D．Daydreaming encourages you to finish the impossible. 3．According to paragraph 5, daydreaming is talked about ________. A．to advise people to have a mind break B．to suggest living at the moment C．to find solutions to homework problems D．to show a science research result 4．What is the main idea of this passage? A．Daydreaming is helpful if you do it at the right time. B．Albert Einstein became a scientist by daydreaming about light. C．Daydreaming is the best way to solve all your homework problems. D．You should avoid daydreaming because it makes you less focused. 主题02人与社会——电视与影视 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州市真光中学·期中） Doctors recommend that kids spend most of their time being active outdoors and playing with their parents.

It shows how traditional tales can still be meaningful for young people today, keeping the cultural heart of the story while making it feel new. What’s cool about this film is how it mixes classic Chinese culture with problems that today’s teens face. It keeps the original story’s ideas about being brave and fighting for what’s right, but also talks about finding yourself, dealing with people who don’t believe in you, and staying true to who you are - things all middle school students understand. The film mixes old and new styles perfectly. Traditional Chinese art influences can be seen throughout the film, like ink painting styles that are mixed with modern 3D effects. The characters’ clothes look historical but move smoothly during action scenes. Some people might ask why we need another version (版本) of an old story, but “Nezha” shows why it’s important to retell classics (经典作品) for new generations (代). It keeps the original message about courage while making it easier for today’s viewers to connect with. The film works because it respects tradition while trying new things. It makes learning about Chinese culture fun and interesting, helping young people understand traditional stories through situations they recognize from their own lives. In all, “Nezha” is more than a good film. It is a great example of how to keep culture alive. By mixing old and new in its story, its art, its purpose, and its way of teaching, the film doesn’t just tell us about the past - it helps young people use those old lessons to build their own futures. This is why it so successfully makes an ancient story a friend to modern teens. 1．How is the passage organized? A．By expressing an opinion and then giving reasons to support it. B．By comparing the movie “Nezha” with other modern films. C．By describing the plot of the movie scene by scene.

They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction. Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use. People lose control(控制) of the time they spend on the Internet. For example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were worried, and they called the police. The police found the student in the computer lab: he was surfing the net for several days straight. Studies show that about 6 to 10% of Internet users become addicted. And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them. They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family. Is “surfing the net” a hobby or an addiction for you?

Passage2 （25-26九年级上·广州执信中学·期中） ①Do you sometimes feel too afraid to try new things? If you want to grow and get better, you need to take risks (冒险) and challenge yourself. But your brain often tells you to stay safe. It might say, “Don’t bother trying something new.” Even when these thoughts aren’t reasonable, our anxiety can still win. Instead of thinking about the good things that could happen, we worry more about “What if something goes wrong?” ②Avoiding all risks might seem smart, but it can make you feel unhappy. The problem is that we often make decisions based on feelings, not facts. We think, “The more scared I feel, the riskier it is.” But feelings aren’t always reasonable. If we knew how to think about risks clearly, we’d know which risks are worth taking. For example, trying a new hobby like painting might feel scary at first, but it could bring you joy and new skills. ③Whether you’re afraid to change your job or too nervous to ask a friend for coffee, learning to take “good risks” can improve your life. Here are good ways to help. ④Balance feelings with facts. Many times, we think fear means something risky. But that’s not true. For example, driving a car feels safe because we do it every day, but giving a speech in public might make your heart beat fast. Yet the fact shows that car accidents are much more common than getting hurt while speaking! So before you avoid doing something scary, take three deep breaths and ask yourself, “What’s the real risk here?” ⑤Take steps to succeed. You can do many small things to lower risks. If you’re nervous about an exam, make a study plan and follow it strictly—this helps you feel more prepared. It’s okay to feel butterflies in your stomach when you try something new. Facing fear helps build your mental muscle, just like exercising builds physical muscle. Each time you try something scary, you will learn to deal with uncertainty and anxiety. You’ll also get new skills and grow from mistakes. If you try out for a dance team and don’t make it, you can ask for the reason and then practise more. With practice, you’ll get better at facing risk, and your chances of success will rise. 1．Which of the following is TRUE according to the first two paragraphs? A．Avoiding risks is a smart way to stay happy. B．Taking risks requires us to trust our feelings. C．Our brain often tells us to face challenges bravely. D．Our feelings often influence us to make decisions. 2．What is the structure of this passage? A． B． C． D． 3．What does the underlined phrase “feel butterflies in your stomach” in Paragraph ⑤ probably mean? A．Feel hungry. B．Feel prepared. C．Feel interested. D．Feel nervous. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Taking smart risks pushes us forward. B．Trying small things reduces risks. C．Learning about real risks helps a lot. D．Practising more helps deal with risks. Passage3 （25-26九年级上·广州市汇景实验学校等四校·期中） Do you often ask questions? Children are known for wanting answers to many questions because curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. As we all know, curiosity provides many advantages. Many of history’s greatest discoveries were made by curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more quickly. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world and have useful technology to help them. Even if you don’t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the curiosity of learning, lessons will become more interesting. You will be good at them because you enjoy the process of learning. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you an able worker. What will you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. Often, the more you learn about a topic, the more interesting it becomes. To improve your curiosity, get information from as many sources (来源) as possible when you learn about a topic. At the same time, read all kinds of books, watch or listen to speeches and ask questions. Don’t always get information in the same way. Instead, learn to understand the facts that different people know. Don’t assume you already know everything. Instead, search for other possibilities and opinions. Remember, everyone knows something that you don’t know. Find out what it is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes other people happy by sharing their knowledge. Let’s try to become people who are full of curiosity. 1．Why do children like to ask questions? A．Because they are born with natural curiosity. B．Because they don’t know about human nature. C．Because they are known for reading and watching. D．Because they don’t want to find the answers by themselves. 2．What can curiosity help you do in the classroom? A．It can make you cleverer than before. B．It can make the classes easier for you. C．It can help you enjoy the process of learning. D．It can help you feel relaxed in the classroom. 3．Which can be helpful in improving your curiosity? A．Reading only one kind of book. B．Showing others your knowledge. C．Getting information in the same way. D．Getting information from as many sources as you can. 4．What is the best title for the text? A．Try to Be Curious B．Make Others Happy C．Learn to Ask Questions D．Great Discoveries Made by Curious People 主题04人与社会——科学技术、科普知识 Passage1 （24-25九年级上·广州市南武中学学校·期中） Smartphones are getting boring. The new models are either a bit faster or have better cameras, but they are basically no different from the ones already in our pockets. This is why scientists are hoping, and working for something new, something that will change our lives just as greatly as smartphones do. At the moment, the next invention might be smart glasses. . Just imagine. Instead of having to pick up your phone and look at the screen, all of the information you need simply appears just in front of you, in your glasses. Satellite navigation (导航) directions would appear right there on the road. And your smart glasses could guide you to the right shelf in the supermarket! Smart glasses could also be used in industry. They could show engineers the instructions they need to fix things more quickly. A doctor could carry out a difficult operation, guided in real time by someone on the other side of the world. This may sound impossible. But most of the technologies to invent them are already there. For example, one key technology is called AR, which can make digital 3D objects appear as if they are part of the real world. We’ve used it a lot on our video calls. Similarly, huge progress has been made in spatial audio. This is when a sound is made to give it a sense of place, like what you hear in an empty room. Some high-end earphones can already do that. Future glasses will of course need to recognize (识别) your voice to do tasks. This technology has been widely used in our daily life. So, why aren’t we all wearing smart glasses yet? So far, no one has invented a good way to send images (映像) of our world onto glasses. However, with the rapid development of technology, smart glasses could arrive much sooner than we think. 1．Why does the writer mention smartphones in Paragraph 1? A．To start a story. B．To explain an idea. C．To introduce a topic. D．To discuss a problem. 2．What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about? A．When smart glasses might be made. B．Where smart glasses could be used. C．How smart glasses would give directions. D．Why smart glasses should be changed. 3．Which of the following technologies needs to be improved to invent smart glasses? A．Making spatial audio. B．Recognizing voices. C．Creating digital 3D objects. D．Sending images onto glasses. 4．How might the writer feel about the future of smart glasses? A．Bored. B．Confident. C．Satisfied. D．Uncertain. Passage2 （25-26九年级上·广州市花都区秀全外国语学校·期中） When it comes to reading, people have different preferences. Some people will choose paper books because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers, perhaps on a phone, because they’re convenient. But which is the more environment-friendly choice? Digital reading (数字阅读) is on the rise, now making up about 15% of the total US book market. However, traditional print publishing is still by far the most popular type—and it comes with a high carbon footprint (碳足迹). According to a 2023 report from Words Rated, print book publishing is the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions (排放), and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the US to make paper for books. Then there’s the problem of printing and transport, not to mention the many unsold books that are destroyed. Digital reading seems to be better than print because it is paperless, so it saves trees and transport. Moreover, technology companies that make e-readers, such as Amazon, offer recycling programs for old devices (设备). But digital devices also come with a large carbon footprint, mainly at the production stage. So back to the earlier question: which way of reading is more environmentally friendly? “If you buy an e-reader and you read lots of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do. But if you buy it, read a couple of books, and find that you prefer paper books, then it’s the worst of all worlds.” said Mike Berners-Lee, a professor at Lancaster Environment Centre in the United Kingdom. Yet, Berners-Lee also said that reading is still, relatively speaking, an environment-friendly activity. 1．What can we know from the text? A．Printed books have a poor sales record in the US. B．Print publishing is not friendly to the environment. C．Digital reading is more popular than paper reading. D．Printing books costs more than producing e-readers. 2．Which aspect of digital devices has the largest impact on the environment? A．Its transportation. B．Its waste management. C．Its production process. D．Its recycling programs. 3．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean? A．It remains unclear. B．It needs further studies. C．It depends on the specific situation. D．It is a matter of personal preference 4．What is the most suitable title for the text? A．Why Should We Choose Digital Reading? B．How Does Print Publishing Affect the Environment? C．Will Traditional Print Reading Disappear in the Future? D．Which is Better for the Environment, Paper Books or E-readers? Passage3 （25-26九年级上·广州市天河区第七十五中学·期中） In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI 人工智能) technology has developed rapidly and is being used in people’s life and work. From self-driving cars to smart homes to data analysis, AI is gradually changing the way we work and live. In this situation, many traditional human work can be replaced by intelligent tools. On the one hand, people are happy to have so many useful AI tools to make our work and life easier. On the other hand, people are worried that their jobs will be replaced by AI tools, and can’t find jobs to live on. Some young people believe that with the popularization of AI translation tools, the need to learn foreign languages is greatly reduced. After all, an APP on a smartphone can translate different languages quickly, helping people who speak different languages communicate. In addition, AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and many other such tools or websites can help people realize all kinds of ideas, such as writing, drawing, making videos, searching for materials, and analyzing data. Most AI tools can help with writing in any language. Some teenagers think the ability to write in a foreign language or a native language is not important, as long as they can use AI tools. They no longer need to spend a lot of time learning these “fungible” skills. However, other young people have different ideas. They believe that improving information literacy (信息素养) and the ability to control AI technology is more important in the time of AI. This includes not only basic computer skills, but also thinking and moral judgment (道德判断). Students should be prepared to live with AI, learn knowledge, use AI, and even develop new AI tools. 1．AI technology is not widely used in ________. A．self-driving cars B．smart home C．data analysis D．emotional understanding 2．AI translation tools ________. A．can completely replace foreign language learning B．can translate all languages easily C．reduce the need to learn a foreign language D．can only help users with a written translation 3．What does the underlined (划线的) word “fungible” mean? A．Replaceable. B．Repetitive. C．Useless. D．Boring. 4．What does the writer want to tell us? A．In the time of AI, students don’t need to learn any foreign language. B．It’s not important for people to improve their writing. C．People should learn more and master skills that cannot be replaced by AI tools. D．Computer skills are more important than thinking and moral judgment. Passage4 （25-26九年级上·广州市中山大学附属中学雅宝学校·期中） Wang Tingrui’s story with digital fonts (电子字体) began with an old book. He scanned (扫描) each character (汉字), turned them into digital forms, and called the font “Kinghwa Old Songti.” His work shows the spirit of young people who try to save the old shapes of Chinese characters and share them with the world. To understand his effort, we need to look at the history of printing. In the Song Dynasty, people started to use movable type (活字印刷). Centuries later, Gutenberg created metal movable type in Europe, and this idea came back to East Asia in the nineteenth century. From the late nineteenth century to the twentieth century, lead types (铅字块) flourished in East Asia. Two main styles, Songti and Heiti, became the most common. They were widely used in newspapers and textbooks. These fonts made reading clearer and became part of daily life. But with the rise of digital publishing, lead types soon disappeared. Although many old ones were thrown away or changed into other things, ▲ . Some shops let visitors try printing with them, and some companies made digital copies. However, many readers felt these copies were not the same as the real ones, because they lost the special marks of hand work. Today, other “font archaeologists (字体考古学家)” like Wang continue this work. They scan old books, save rare characters, and even use AI to rebuild missing ones. For them, fonts are not just tools for writing, but also cultural treasures that carry memories and value. Wang still adds new characters to his digital font. Every discovery keeps part of Chinese tradition alive. Every font saved is a memory kept, and a future protected. 1．Which shows the development of the fonts mentioned in the passage? A．Metal movable type→Movable type→Digital fonts. B．Movable type→Metal movable type→Digital fonts. C．Digital fonts→Movable type→Metal movable type. D．Movable type→Digital fonts→Metal movable type. 2．What drove Wang to create “Kinghwa Old Songti”? A．A task to produce new art styles. B．A plan to follow foreign printers. C．A wish to protect traditional characters. D．A need to make money from business. 3．Which of the following can be put in  _ ▲ ? A．digital copies were easy to make B．people no longer loved printing C．the types were very useless D．a few pieces were well kept 4．Which sentence uses “flourish” the same way as the underlined word? A．He flourished his new car proudly in the neighborhood. B．Online short videos flourished fast among the young. C．Wild mushrooms flourish after rain, but don’t eat them. D．She opened the gift box with a flourish before her friends. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题04 阅读理解（说明文）（广州专用） 主题01 人与社会——家庭生活、亲子关系 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州白云区·期中） Family life is like a strong tree with many branches. Each branch shows a different part of family relationships, daily life, and time spent together. In most families, people share not only a house but also their feelings and experiences. They eat meals together, talk about what happened during their day, enjoy happy moments, and help each other when things are difficult. These everyday activities build strong family connections. Of course, family life isn’t always perfect. Sometimes parents and children disagree, or brothers and sisters argue (争论). These small problems are normal when people live together. What’s important isn’t avoiding all arguments, but how family members solve them. By talking openly and trying to understand each other, families can actually become closer through these experiences.     Today, family life has changed in some ways. Many parents have jobs that keep them busy, and children spend much time at school with homework and activities. Even with busy schedules, families find special ways to stay close. Some plan regular fun activities like watching movies together or playing games. Others enjoy going out on weekends. These shared moments help keep family bonds (纽带) strong. The true importance of family life comes from having a place where you are always listened to and cared for. In such a home when you have a bad day or face a difficulty, you know you are not alone. Your family is there to support you, share your feelings, and help you find solutions. This loving and safe environment is what truly helps each person grow, become more confident, and feel strong enough to handle any problem in life. 1．What is the main idea of the passage? A．To list different family activities. B．To explain why family problems happen. C．To compare old and new family styles. D．To talk about what makes family life important. 2．What does the author think about family arguments? A．They are bad and should be avoided. B．They are normal and can be fixed. C．They mean the family is broken. D．They only happen in modern families. 3．What does the author say about today’s family life? A．Busy lives make family time impossible. B．Families don’t eat together any more. C．Families still find time to be together even when busy. D．Children like school more than family. 4．According to the passage, what is most important in a family? A．Having a big and nice house. B．Never having any disagreements.

But that’s not true. In fact, parents and children of all ages can have communication problems—this is what we call the “generation gap (代沟).” But the good news is, we can bridge the generation gap with simple ways. Anger makes communication hard. So don’t argue with your parents. If you shout at your parents, they won’t listen to your ideas. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. You can stop talking first. Go to your room, take a deep breath, or walk around to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you still don’t want to talk face to face, try writing a letter. It’s easier to express your true feelings on paper without getting mad. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. For example, Michael wanted to buy a motorcycle, but his mom disagreed because she worried about his safety. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. If your parents won’t compromise on something, don’t get upset. Instead, show them you love and respect them. This keeps your relationship strong. Your parents’ ideas about life might be different from yours. To help them understand you, you can tell your parents what you care about and why. When your parents know your values, they’ll see why you make certain choices. This helps close the generation gap. In short, the generation gap isn’t hard to fix. If you remember these ways—stay calm when angry, compromise, and share your values, you’ll get along better with your parents. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. So why not try these tips? It’s definitely worth the effort! 1．According to the passage, the “generation gap” mainly refers to a communication problem between ________. A．teenagers and their friends B．parents and their young children C．people with different life experiences and values D．school kids and their teachers at school 2．If there’s a generation gap between you and your parents, you’d better ________. A．have a walk with them B．share your values with them C．agree with them all the time D．keep away from them for a while 3．Why does the writer talk about Michael and his mother? A．To explain how compromise helps. B．To show parents often disagree with kids’ ideas. C．To tell kids to listen to parents’ advice on important things. D．To warn teens not to ride motorcycles without parents’ permission. 4．What can be inferred from the passage? A．There are many serious problems in families today. B．Parents’ values are usually different from their children’s. C．The generation gap can be reduced if children take proper action. D．Compromise is the most important way to bridge the generation gap. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了代沟问题并非只存在于学龄儿童与父母之间，而是普遍存在于各年龄段的亲子关系中。文章提出了三种解决代沟的方法： 保持冷静避免争吵、学会妥协达成共识、主动分享个人价值观以增进理解。通过这些方法可以有效改善亲子沟通，建立更和谐的家庭关系。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据文中“In fact, parents and children of all ages can have communication problems—this is what we call the ‘generation gap’ ”及下文可知，代沟是父母与孩子，即有着不同生活经历和价值观的人之间的沟通问题。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据文中“To help them understand you, you can tell your parents what you care about, and why. When your parents know your values, they’ll see why you make certain choices.

However, misunderstandings can still happen if we don’t understand each other’s ways of expressing love—a challenge especially common in parent-child relationships. So, it is important to express our love in the right way. The way someone expresses love is called their “love language”. In the book The 5 Love Languages, Gary Chapman introduces five key love languages that people use to express and experience love: words of affirmation (肯定), quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch. It helps us understand how different people show and receive love. Because of generational differences (代际差异), our love languages are usually different from our parents’. For example, my parents show love through acts of service, like cooking for me. I, however, prefer to express love through words of affirmation. This difference created a big disagreement between us at the beginning. I would try to talk to them, but they wouldn’t answer. They would try to help me by cooking, but I would get impatient. Things changed when I began to recognize their purposes. To connect with your parents, speak their love language. If they value quality time, spend more time with them. If they like receiving gifts, give them something meaningful. If they love words of affirmation, praise them. This way, they can recognize and accept your love more easily. Avoid forcing them to accept a love language they don’t understand, like always asking for hugs if they’re uncomfortable with it. Instead, learn to speak their language. This will lead to better and faster results in your relationship. Understanding and accepting your parents’ love language can help bridge the gap between generations. It’s not just about expressing love in your own way; it’s about recognizing and respecting how your parents express their love. By doing so, you can keep a deeper and more meaningful connection with your parents. Remember, love is best expressed when it is understood. 1．According to the first paragraph parent-child relationships may be better if ________. A．parents and children love each other. B．parents try to offer good services to children C．parents can communicate in different languages D．parents and children use the right way of expressing love 2．What can we learn from the passage? A．The writer and his parents like the same kind of food. B．The writer expressed love in speech more than in action. C．Parents can easily accept the way their children show love.

But now, doctors can help you too! On October 8, the Shanghai Children’s Medical Center opened the Spatial and Mathematical Learning Difficulties Clinic. According to the clinic, spatial cognitive (空间认知的) ability plays an important role in a student’s ability to deal with math problems. The clinic also noted that the lack of spatial imagination can affect students’ performance in subjects like math, physics, and chemistry. The clinic’s task is to provide support for students who have difficulties understanding spatial problems in math, as well as electric fields in physics and chemical structures in chemistry. They help find out why kids have trouble learning by doing careful tests and checks. After finding out what stops kids from learning, the clinic gives a full plan which includes finding out the problem, giving guidance, teaching parents, and managing medicine. With 316 yuan per patient, the clinic says there’s no age limit because adults can also have the same problems. Zhang Zeng, a math teacher from Shanghai, expressed his support. “If we can make sure the reasons behind students’ weak spatial reasoning through medical analysis and make necessary changes, it will be good for their studies in math.” Zhang said. However, experts remind parents that these clinics may help students, but they can’t magically turn them into top students. It’s more important to have realistic expectations. Shi Ping from Tianjin Children’s Hospital told China Daily that putting too much pressure on kids can sometimes make learning harder. Parents should think about how they teach their kids and consider making some changes. After all, just as an expert said, “Doing well in school shouldn’t be the only thing that matters in a child’s life.” 1．Which of the following best describes the main work of the Shanghai clinic? A．It helps students improve math grades by teaching difficult skills. B．It trains parents to help their kids develop spatial imagination at home. C．It makes a perfect plan to be a top student at school for all the students. D．It finds causes of students’ spatial learning problems and offers support. 2．What is math teacher Zhang Zeng’s attitude towards the clinic? A．He believes the clinic helps with spatial math problems. B．He worries that the clinic brings extra pressure to students. C．He thinks medical analysis can solve math problems for students. D．He suggests the clinic should focus more on students than on adults. 3．The underlined word “realistic” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ________. A．high B．reasonable C．common D．special 4．What’s the writer’s purpose of writing this passage? A．To call on parents to take their children to the clinic. B．To explain why spatial cognitive ability is so important for students. C．To introduce a new kind of medical clinic and give some suggestions. D．To tell parents that doing well in school isn't the only important thing. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了上海开设的空间与数学学习困难诊所的功能，结合教师支持与专家建议，提醒家长合理期望，关注孩子全面发展。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据“They help find out why kids have trouble learning by doing careful tests and checks. After finding out what stops kids from learning, the clinic gives a full plan...”可知，该诊所通过检测找出学生空间学习问题的原因并提供支持，故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Zhang Zeng...expressed his support. ‘If we can make sure the reasons behind students’ weak spatial reasoning through medical analysis and make necessary changes, it will be good for their studies in math.’”可知，张老师认为诊所对解决空间数学问题有帮助，故选A。 3．词句猜测题。根据“these clinics may help students, but they can’t magically turn them into top students. It’s more important to have realistic expectations.”可知，诊所不能让学生奇迹般变顶尖，因此需要“合理的”期望，“realistic”意为“合理的”，故选B。 4．主旨大意题。本文先介绍上海儿童医学中心开设的空间与数学学习困难诊所，再通过专家观点给出建议（如降低压力、合理期望），核心是介绍新诊所并提建议，故选C。 主题02人与社会——青少年问题与建议 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州市花都区·期中） Advice for Everyday Problems Life is full of challenges. Some common problems can still make us feel bad. Here is some useful advice to help with the everyday situations. Q1: My friends go out without me. I feel sad. What should I do?It’s normal to feel sad when friends don’t include you. First, you should tell them about your feeling. They may not know they make you sad. If things don’t get better, then you can join some new clubs. There you can meet new people who will be nice to you. Q2: I feel very nervous before exams. What can I do? Worrying about exams is common. To be less stressed, make a good study plan and get enough sleep. Try taking deep breaths before the test. Remember, it’s normal to make mistakes, but every exam can help you learn something new. Q3: My parents want to know everything about me. I want some privacy. I want to be alone sometimes. How can I talk to them? Communication is the key. Choose a time and share your feelings peacefully. Tell your parents that privacy is important to you. Let them know that you love them and need their help, but you still need your own space sometimes. It takes time and patience to find a balance between the two sides. Q4: I want to make new friends but I’m shy. Any advice? Start by joining activities or clubs that interest you. This way, you’ll meet people with similar hobbies. Try going up and talk to others first. Don’t worry. Many others feel the same as you. Building friendships takes time, so be patient with yourself. Everyone faces problems in life. The important thing is to talk about your feelings, believe in yourself, and understand others. Don’t be afraid when you meet difficulties. Every problem helps you learn and grow. Just take small steps, and you will become better at solving problems. 1．Who might be most interested in reading this passage? A．Teenagers. B．Teachers. C．Doctors.

I want some privacy. I want to be alone sometimes.”，根据上下文可以推断，作者想要一些不被父母过度干涉的空间，即“隐私”。因此，“privacy”在这里的意思是“空间”。故选A。 4．细节理解题。在Q4中，针对“想交新朋友但害羞”的问题，文章建议“Start by joining activities or clubs that interest you.”，即从参加自己感兴趣的活动或俱乐部开始。因此，Sam如果想交新朋友但害羞，可以参加他喜欢的活动或俱乐部。故选D。 Passage 2 （24-25九年级上·广州市执信中学·期中） Teens often find themselves hard to talk about their needs or values with others. Even when their guts (直觉) are telling them that someone is crossing a line with them, it’s difficult for them to express that the situation is making them uncomfortable. For this reason, teens need to learn how to set boundaries (界限) with others. Although boundaries are different for everyone, they help teens set limits with others in order to protect themselves. Setting boundaries allows teens to communicate with other people about what is OK and what is not OK with them, and it is necessary for teen friendships as well. Explanation of Boundaries Boundaries are limits that teens set to protect themselves in some way from being hurt or bullied. As an expression of self-esteem, boundaries let people know who they are, what they value, and how they want to be treated. In addition, boundaries help to create space between teens and other people when they need them. Importance of Boundaries Learning how to set boundaries is an important part of growing up. It’s also necessary to develop relationships that are respectful, supportive, and healthy. However, many teens have trouble setting boundaries with their friends. When it happens, it puts them at risk for everything from unhealthy friendships to bullying. Setting boundaries with other people not only helps keep teens safe but also helps protect their mental health. If teens meet bad people in their lives, such as unkind friends or adults that make them feel uncomfortable, they need to set boundaries with those people, too. Being in an unhealthy relationship can cause bad results. Ways of Setting Boundaries In fact, teens will run into a number of different situations throughout their lives that challenge their values and beliefs. Knowing how to set boundaries can help them stay safe and be true to who they are. Please have a look at the following ways. 1．Which one is a good example of setting boundaries according to the passage? A．George talked about his hobby with his best friend. B．Jerry refused to communicate with his parents and friends. C．Kelly asked her parents for help when she was in trouble. D．Betty let her friend know how she wanted to be treated politely. 2．What is the advantage of setting boundaries? A．Getting respect from others. B．Reducing space with others. C．Knowing the value of friends. D．Building up healthy relationships. 3．What does the underlined word “self-esteem” mean in paragraph 3? A．little interest in one’s own value B．doubt about one’s pride and worth C．confidence in one’s own abilities and worth D．feelings of being unworthy of love or respect 4．What may the writer talk about in the next paragraph? A．The tips for setting boundaries. B．The different types of boundaries. C．The influence of setting boundaries. D．The examples of setting boundaries. 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要阐述了青少年学会设定界限的重要性、界限的含义以及设定界限的方式。 【详解】 1．推理判断题。根据“Boundaries are limits that teens set to protect themselves in some way from being hurt or bullied. As an expression of self-esteem, boundaries let people know who they are, what they value, and how they want to be treated.”可知，界限是青少年为保护自己免受伤害或欺凌而设定的限制，能让他人知道自己是谁、重视什么以及希望被如何对待。选项D中贝蒂让她的朋友知道她希望被礼貌对待，符合设定界限的做法，故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Setting boundaries allows teens to communicate with other people about what is OK and what is not OK with them, and it is necessary for teen friendships as well. Learning how to set boundaries is an important part of growing up. It’s also necessary to develop relationships that are respectful, supportive, and healthy.”可知，设定界限有助于青少年与他人沟通自己的接受范围，对青少年友谊至关重要，也是成长的重要部分，有利于建立健康、尊重和支持性的关系，即建立健康的人际关系，故选D。 3．词义猜测题。根据“Boundaries are limits that teens set to protect themselves in some way from being hurt or bullied. As an expression of self-esteem, boundaries let people know who they are, what they value, and how they want to be treated.”可知，界限能让他人知道自己是谁、重视什么以及希望被如何对待，这体现了对自己能力和价值的一种自信，所以“self-esteem”意为“对自己能力和价值的自信”，故选C。 4．推理判断题。文章结尾提到“Please have a look at the following ways.”，暗示接下来会讲述设定界限的方法，故选A。 Passage 3 （25-26九年级上·广州市天河区骏景中学·期中） Conflict (冲突) happens when two people disagree because of their own goals, values, or beliefs. It’s not always as simple as an argument. Instead, conflict is what happens right before the argument; it’s what the two people disagree about before they start calling each other names. What may cause conflict? Parents and teenagers have many chances to experience conflict with one another. Teenage years are a time when independence and parental influence fight, since teens are able to think on their own but still live with parents who have rules and expectations for them. Teenagers don’t necessarily hold the same beliefs and values as their parents, and their goal to have fun often conflicts with their parents’ goal to keep them safe. If kids don’t come back home at the time when they’re supposed to, their parents will get worried. A worried parent becomes a scolding (责骂的) parent. The conflict happens. Sometimes, teens want to have noisy fun while their parents want to sleep. This is a common conflict that happens every day. Also, parents and teenagers usually prefer different types of music. So when parents don’t like the music the kids are listening to, they are more likely to tell them to turn it down. Then conflict begins. This may not be totally true. However, one thing is for sure: parents might use the teenager’s exam results to judge (判断) him/her. Every time the parents’ expectations aren’t met, they will scold their kids. And the conflict happens. How to deal with conflict? See each other as friends in the common goals you agree on. Such goals usually include keeping teens safe and seeing them make success. Pay attention to these goals to avoid getting unsatisfied with each other. List possible solutions to the conflict together. You can try listing creative ideas, whether they seem reasonable or not. Creativity is your friend when you’re solving any problem in life, including conflict with others. 1．What does the underlined phrase “calling each other names” mean? A．Singing loudly to each other. B．Speaking angrily to each other. C．Making a call to someone. D．Making someone feel at home. 2．Why do teenagers and parents get into conflict? A．They have different beliefs and values. B．They live independent lives separately. C．They hold common views on teenage years. D．They don’t show much patience to each other. 3．How can a teenager solve conflict with parents? A．By writing down creative ideas with parents. B．By writing an article about different opinions. C．By spending more time talking with parents. D．By making parents change their opinions. 4．In which section of the magazine Family would you probably read this article? A．Activities. B．Rules. C．Relationship. D．Possessions. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文讲述了父母与青少年之间产生冲突的原因和给出了解决这些冲突的建议。 【详解】 1．词义猜测题。根据“Instead, conflict is what happens right before the argument; it’s what the two people disagree about before they start calling each other names.”可知，冲突发生在争论之前，所以冲突就是在两人争吵之前所出现的分歧，所以“calling each other names”的意思是“两个人之间争吵”，B选项“生气地对某人说话”符合题意。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“Teenagers don’t necessarily hold the same beliefs and values as their parents, and their goal to have fun often conflicts with their parents’ goal to keep them safe.”可知，青少年与父母有不同的信仰和价值观，他们的娱乐目标往往与父母的安全目标相冲突，所以由此可知造成青少年和父母陷入冲突的原因是他们有不同的信仰和价值观。故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据“You can try listing creative ideas, whether they seem reasonable or not. Creativity is your friend when you’re solving any problem in life, including conflict with others.”可知，尝试列出创造性的想法，能解决生活中的任何问题，包括与他人的冲突，所以当和父母出现冲突时，可以使用这个办法。故选A。 4．推理判断题。本文讲述了父母与青少年之间产生冲突的原因和给出了解决这些冲突的建议，故文章可能出现在杂志《家庭》的关系部分。故选C。 主题03人与自我——自我管理与自我提升 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州市天河区骏景中学·期中） Looking your best means finding out what’s nice about you and showing that side to the world.

How much do you really know about the person in it? It’s not an easy job to know ourselves. To help students do this important task, schools across China are providing more classes and activities on self-knowledge. Liu Yue, a teacher from Chengdu Yucai Middle School, has recently given her students a useful tool. “It’s called the Johari Window, developed by two psychologists (心理学家),” said Liu. “It has four areas about one’s self: open area (that everyone knows), hidden area (that only you know), blind spot (that everyone knows except you) and unknown area (that nobody knows). Using this tool, students did a good job seeing themselves through a new lens (透镜).” “I’m most curious about my blind spot,” said eighth-grader Yang Manfei. “So I did a survey with my friends.” The results showed that Yang easily gets anxious and impatient because of procrastination (拖延). “That’s a bad habit I’ve never realized!” Yang said. “I find the unknown area most amazing,” said Sun Boyin. “It means everyone has lots of potential.” When Sun entered middle school, he was not good at math. “But I set a goal and did lots of math exercises. Now I’m much better at math. The unknown part of my math ability is getting clearer!” Sun said. When it comes to the hidden area, most students keep silent. “I’m scared to show my secrets deep down,” said Li Yixuan. “Then one classmate stood up and said his favourite cartoon is Tom and Jerry. I thought: Am I brave enough to show my childish hobby? Perhaps not. I don’t want my classmates to see me as a silly kid. But then I realized that I don’t find that classmate silly. I think he has the courage to be himself.” ▲ --- that’s the best lesson you need to learn. 1．What is the Johari Window for? A．Knowing oneself well. B．Helping students do homework.

He used this picture in mind to help him when working out the “theory of relativity (相对论)”. “Imagination is more important than knowledge,” said Einstein. Daydreaming, called “thought experiments” by Einstein, can make you have wild imaginations like flying around in space. It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas, memories and experiences that aren’t happening right now. It means thinking ahead to a holiday or remembering how much you enjoyed a birthday party. According to health organizations, daydreaming for a while each day can improve your emotional (情绪的) health and creativity. ________. For example, after a long day at work or a disagreement with a friend, let your mind fly away to the picture of a big meal or the friend’s smiling face. Imagining how you’re going to speak to the public is like having practiced the scene in your head before for many times, which can make you feel quieter. A few minutes to let your mind wander (漫游) and hope for good things to happen lower negative (消极的) thinking. Guo Qiang, a psychologist, suggests we should make time to daydream. “It can be a powerful tool to shape our feelings.” he said. However, try not to let your mind be missing when you need to focus in class or cross the road. Instead, find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth. Daydreaming encourages creativity and lets you find new worlds where there are no limits (限制) to what you can do or who you are. To encourage creativity, think about interesting ideas and see where your mind takes you. Research shows that people often come up with more ways to solve problems after they’ve “had a dream”. So next time you’re stuck with homework, stop for a moment and see where you go in the new world. 1．Daydreaming can make people ________. a. fly around b. think freely c. walk slowly d. feel quieter e. think ahead f. inspire creativity A．a, b, f B．b, c, d C．a, c, f D．b, d, e 2．Which of the following can be put in ________? A．Daydreaming makes you forget difficult things. B．Daydreaming means unreal but joyful things. C．Daydreaming about something pleasant helps you deal with worries and stress. D．Daydreaming encourages you to finish the impossible. 3．According to paragraph 5, daydreaming is talked about ________. A．to advise people to have a mind break B．to suggest living at the moment C．to find solutions to homework problems D．to show a science research result 4．What is the main idea of this passage? A．Daydreaming is helpful if you do it at the right time. B．Albert Einstein became a scientist by daydreaming about light. C．Daydreaming is the best way to solve all your homework problems. D．You should avoid daydreaming because it makes you less focused. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．A 4．A 【导语】本文是说明文，介绍了白日梦的定义、益处，同时提醒要在合适的时间做白日梦，合理的白日梦对人有积极作用。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“It lets your mind walk slowly around ideas...”对应b；“It means thinking ahead to a holiday or...”对应e；第3段“make you feel quieter”对应d。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据文章第3段“after a long day at work or disagreement with a friend, let your mind fly away to the picture of a big meal... make you feel quieter.”可知，此处讲“想象愉快的事能帮助应对焦虑和压力”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第5段“find a time when you don’t have to focus on anything, like going for a walk or brushing your teeth.”可知，此段建议人们让大脑休息。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。文章既讲了白日梦的益处，也提醒要在合适的时间做白日梦，核心是“在正确的时间做白日梦是有益的”。故选A。 主题02人与社会——电视与影视 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·广州市真光中学·期中） Doctors recommend that kids spend most of their time being active outdoors and playing with their parents.

It shows how traditional tales can still be meaningful for young people today, keeping the cultural heart of the story while making it feel new. What’s cool about this film is how it mixes classic Chinese culture with problems that today’s teens face. It keeps the original story’s ideas about being brave and fighting for what’s right, but also talks about finding yourself, dealing with people who don’t believe in you, and staying true to who you are - things all middle school students understand. The film mixes old and new styles perfectly. Traditional Chinese art influences can be seen throughout the film, like ink painting styles that are mixed with modern 3D effects. The characters’ clothes look historical but move smoothly during action scenes. Some people might ask why we need another version (版本) of an old story, but “Nezha” shows why it’s important to retell classics (经典作品) for new generations (代). It keeps the original message about courage while making it easier for today’s viewers to connect with. The film works because it respects tradition while trying new things. It makes learning about Chinese culture fun and interesting, helping young people understand traditional stories through situations they recognize from their own lives. In all, “Nezha” is more than a good film. It is a great example of how to keep culture alive. By mixing old and new in its story, its art, its purpose, and its way of teaching, the film doesn’t just tell us about the past - it helps young people use those old lessons to build their own futures. This is why it so successfully makes an ancient story a friend to modern teens. 1．How is the passage organized? A．By expressing an opinion and then giving reasons to support it. B．By comparing the movie “Nezha” with other modern films. C．By describing the plot of the movie scene by scene.

B．Its ability to balance tradition with modern ideas. C．Its method of making learning about Chinese culture fun and interesting. D．Its use of historical clothes and ink painting styles. 3．How does the movie help young people understand traditional stories? A．By using beautiful ink painting styles in the film. B．By retelling the classic story for new generations. C．By creating lively animation (动画片) for the stories. D．By connecting the stories to real-life experiences of young people. 4．According to the author, how might teens mainly feel after they see the film “Nezha”? A．Tired and bored.

They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction. Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use.

If you want to grow and get better, you need to take risks (冒险) and challenge yourself. But your brain often tells you to stay safe. It might say, “Don’t bother trying something new.” Even when these thoughts aren’t reasonable, our anxiety can still win. Instead of thinking about the good things that could happen, we worry more about “What if something goes wrong?” ②Avoiding all risks might seem smart, but it can make you feel unhappy. The problem is that we often make decisions based on feelings, not facts. We think, “The more scared I feel, the riskier it is.” But feelings aren’t always reasonable. If we knew how to think about risks clearly, we’d know which risks are worth taking. For example, trying a new hobby like painting might feel scary at first, but it could bring you joy and new skills. ③Whether you’re afraid to change your job or too nervous to ask a friend for coffee, learning to take “good risks” can improve your life. Here are good ways to help. ④Balance feelings with facts. Many times, we think fear means something risky. But that’s not true. For example, driving a car feels safe because we do it every day, but giving a speech in public might make your heart beat fast. Yet the fact shows that car accidents are much more common than getting hurt while speaking! So before you avoid doing something scary, take three deep breaths and ask yourself, “What’s the real risk here?” ⑤Take steps to succeed. You can do many small things to lower risks. If you’re nervous about an exam, make a study plan and follow it strictly—this helps you feel more prepared. It’s okay to feel butterflies in your stomach when you try something new. Facing fear helps build your mental muscle, just like exercising builds physical muscle. Each time you try something scary, you will learn to deal with uncertainty and anxiety. You’ll also get new skills and grow from mistakes. If you try out for a dance team and don’t make it, you can ask for the reason and then practise more. With practice, you’ll get better at facing risk, and your chances of success will rise. 1．Which of the following is TRUE according to the first two paragraphs? A．Avoiding risks is a smart way to stay happy. B．Taking risks requires us to trust our feelings. C．Our brain often tells us to face challenges bravely. D．Our feelings often influence us to make decisions. 2．What is the structure of this passage? A． B． C． D． 3．What does the underlined phrase “feel butterflies in your stomach” in Paragraph ⑤ probably mean? A．Feel hungry. B．Feel prepared. C．Feel interested. D．Feel nervous. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Taking smart risks pushes us forward. B．Trying small things reduces risks. C．Learning about real risks helps a lot. D．Practising more helps deal with risks. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文围绕“冒险”这一主题展开，核心观点是鼓励人们学会接受“有益的冒险”，通过合理评估风险、采取行动来促进个人成长和提升生活幸福感。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“The problem is that we often make decisions based on feelings, not facts.”可知，我们经常根据感觉而不是事实来做决定，即我们的感觉经常影响我们做决定。故选D。 2．篇章结构题。第一段通过提出问题“你是否有时因为太害怕而不敢尝试新事物”引出主题——要冒险和挑战自己；第二段指出避免所有风险会让人不开心，且我们常基于感觉而非事实做决定；第三段提出学习采取“好的风险”可以改善生活，并引出下文帮助做到这一点的方法；第四段和第五段分别从“平衡感觉与事实”“采取措施取得成功”两个方面阐述了采取“好的风险”的方法。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据第五段“It’s okay to feel butterflies in your stomach when you try something new. Facing fear helps build your mental muscle, just like exercising builds physical muscle.”可知，当你尝试新事物时，有这种感觉是正常的，且这种感觉与面对恐惧有关，结合常识可知，尝试新事物时人们通常会感到紧张，“feel butterflies in your stomach”意思应该是“感到紧张”。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。文章主要讲述了为了成长和变得更好，我们需要冒险和挑战自己，虽然大脑常让我们保持安全，但避免所有风险会让人不开心，且我们常基于感觉而非事实做决定，接着文章提出学习采取“好的风险”可以改善生活，并给出了平衡感觉与事实、采取措施取得成功等帮助做到这一点的方法，所以文章主旨是采取明智的风险推动我们前进。故选A。 Passage3 （25-26九年级上·广州市汇景实验学校等四校·期中） Do you often ask questions? Children are known for wanting answers to many questions because curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity. People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens. As we all know, curiosity provides many advantages. Many of history’s greatest discoveries were made by curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more quickly. Thanks to their curiosity, people now know far more about the world and have useful technology to help them. Even if you don’t plan to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the curiosity of learning, lessons will become more interesting. You will be good at them because you enjoy the process of learning. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you an able worker. What will you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. Often, the more you learn about a topic, the more interesting it becomes. To improve your curiosity, get information from as many sources (来源) as possible when you learn about a topic. At the same time, read all kinds of books, watch or listen to speeches and ask questions. Don’t always get information in the same way. Instead, learn to understand the facts that different people know. Don’t assume you already know everything. Instead, search for other possibilities and opinions. Remember, everyone knows something that you don’t know. Find out what it is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something and makes other people happy by sharing their knowledge. Let’s try to become people who are full of curiosity. 1．Why do children like to ask questions? A．Because they are born with natural curiosity. B．Because they don’t know about human nature. C．Because they are known for reading and watching. D．Because they don’t want to find the answers by themselves. 2．What can curiosity help you do in the classroom? A．It can make you cleverer than before. B．It can make the classes easier for you. C．It can help you enjoy the process of learning. D．It can help you feel relaxed in the classroom. 3．Which can be helpful in improving your curiosity? A．Reading only one kind of book. B．Showing others your knowledge. C．Getting information in the same way. D．Getting information from as many sources as you can. 4．What is the best title for the text? A．Try to Be Curious B．Make Others Happy C．Learn to Ask Questions D．Great Discoveries Made by Curious People 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了好奇心是人类天性，体现在孩子提问、书籍和电视依赖好奇心上；阐述其推动历史发现、让学习和工作更优的优势；说明可通过多渠道获取信息、理解不同观点、不自满等方式提升好奇心，让读者了解其价值并掌握培养方法。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据第1段“Children are known for wanting answers to many questions because curiosity is part of human nature.”可知，孩子喜欢问问题是因为他们天生具有好奇心。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第2段“If you develop the curiosity of learning, lessons will become more interesting.

The new models are either a bit faster or have better cameras, but they are basically no different from the ones already in our pockets. This is why scientists are hoping, and working for something new, something that will change our lives just as greatly as smartphones do. At the moment, the next invention might be smart glasses. . Just imagine. Instead of having to pick up your phone and look at the screen, all of the information you need simply appears just in front of you, in your glasses. Satellite navigation (导航) directions would appear right there on the road. And your smart glasses could guide you to the right shelf in the supermarket! Smart glasses could also be used in industry. They could show engineers the instructions they need to fix things more quickly. A doctor could carry out a difficult operation, guided in real time by someone on the other side of the world. This may sound impossible. But most of the technologies to invent them are already there. For example, one key technology is called AR, which can make digital 3D objects appear as if they are part of the real world. We’ve used it a lot on our video calls. Similarly, huge progress has been made in spatial audio. This is when a sound is made to give it a sense of place, like what you hear in an empty room. Some high-end earphones can already do that. Future glasses will of course need to recognize (识别) your voice to do tasks. This technology has been widely used in our daily life. So, why aren’t we all wearing smart glasses yet? So far, no one has invented a good way to send images (映像) of our world onto glasses. However, with the rapid development of technology, smart glasses could arrive much sooner than we think. 1．Why does the writer mention smartphones in Paragraph 1? A．To start a story. B．To explain an idea. C．To introduce a topic. D．To discuss a problem. 2．What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about? A．When smart glasses might be made. B．Where smart glasses could be used. C．How smart glasses would give directions. D．Why smart glasses should be changed. 3．Which of the following technologies needs to be improved to invent smart glasses? A．Making spatial audio. B．Recognizing voices. C．Creating digital 3D objects. D．Sending images onto glasses. 4．How might the writer feel about the future of smart glasses? A．Bored. B．Confident. C．Satisfied. D．Uncertain. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲和智能手机一样能改变我们生活的智能眼镜将在生活中的应用及目前尚待解决的问题。 【详解】 1．推理判断题。根据“This is why scientists are hoping, and working for something new, something that will change our lives just as greatly as smartphones do. At the moment, the next invention might be smart glasses.”可知作者写到智能手机是为了能引出智能眼镜的话题。故选C。 2．段落大意题。根据“Just imagine. Instead of having to pick up your phone and look at the screen, all of the information you need simply appears just in front of you, in your glasses.”及“Smart glasses could also be used in industry.”可知2和3段主要讲智能眼镜的使用场所，即可以用在阅读和工业等领域。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“So far, no one has invented a good way to send images of our world onto glasses.”可知一个好的将图像发送到眼镜上的方式还没有被发明出。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据“However, with the rapid development of technology, smart glasses could arrive much sooner than we think.”可知作者认为随着科技的发展，智能眼镜可能会比我们想象的更快到来，即对智能眼镜的前景是比较有信心的。故选B。 Passage2 （25-26九年级上·广州市花都区秀全外国语学校·期中） When it comes to reading, people have different preferences. Some people will choose paper books because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers, perhaps on a phone, because they’re convenient. But which is the more environment-friendly choice? Digital reading (数字阅读) is on the rise, now making up about 15% of the total US book market. However, traditional print publishing is still by far the most popular type—and it comes with a high carbon footprint (碳足迹). According to a 2023 report from Words Rated, print book publishing is the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions (排放), and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the US to make paper for books. Then there’s the problem of printing and transport, not to mention the many unsold books that are destroyed. Digital reading seems to be better than print because it is paperless, so it saves trees and transport. Moreover, technology companies that make e-readers, such as Amazon, offer recycling programs for old devices (设备). But digital devices also come with a large carbon footprint, mainly at the production stage. So back to the earlier question: which way of reading is more environmentally friendly? “If you buy an e-reader and you read lots of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do. But if you buy it, read a couple of books, and find that you prefer paper books, then it’s the worst of all worlds.” said Mike Berners-Lee, a professor at Lancaster Environment Centre in the United Kingdom. Yet, Berners-Lee also said that reading is still, relatively speaking, an environment-friendly activity. 1．What can we know from the text? A．Printed books have a poor sales record in the US. B．Print publishing is not friendly to the environment. C．Digital reading is more popular than paper reading. D．Printing books costs more than producing e-readers. 2．Which aspect of digital devices has the largest impact on the environment? A．Its transportation. B．Its waste management. C．Its production process. D．Its recycling programs. 3．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably mean? A．It remains unclear. B．It needs further studies. C．It depends on the specific situation. D．It is a matter of personal preference 4．What is the most suitable title for the text? A．Why Should We Choose Digital Reading? B．How Does Print Publishing Affect the Environment? C．Will Traditional Print Reading Disappear in the Future? D．Which is Better for the Environment, Paper Books or E-readers? 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文主要围绕纸质书和电子阅读器展开讨论，对比了两者的碳足迹，探究哪种阅读方式更环保，并引用专家观点说明结果取决于具体情况。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中“traditional print publishing is still by far the most popular type—and it comes with a high carbon footprint…print book publishing is the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions, and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the US to make paper for books”可知，纸质出版碳足迹高、排放温室气体且消耗大量树木，对环境不友好。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“But digital devices also come with a large carbon footprint, mainly at the production stage”可知，电子设备对环境的最大影响来自其生产过程。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据最后一段中迈克・伯纳斯 - 李的话“If you buy an e-reader and you read lots of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do. But if you buy it, read a couple of books, and find that you prefer paper books, then it’s the worst of all worlds”可知，电子阅读器是否环保，取决于使用频率等具体情况，由此可判断划线句体现“这取决于具体情况”的含义。故选C。 4．最佳标题题。文章开篇以“which is the more environment-friendly choice?”引出主题，后续围绕两者的环保性展开对比分析，“Which is Better for the Environment, Paper Books or E-readers?”能准确概括文章主旨。故选D。 Passage3 （25-26九年级上·广州市天河区第七十五中学·期中） In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI 人工智能) technology has developed rapidly and is being used in people’s life and work. From self-driving cars to smart homes to data analysis, AI is gradually changing the way we work and live. In this situation, many traditional human work can be replaced by intelligent tools. On the one hand, people are happy to have so many useful AI tools to make our work and life easier. On the other hand, people are worried that their jobs will be replaced by AI tools, and can’t find jobs to live on. Some young people believe that with the popularization of AI translation tools, the need to learn foreign languages is greatly reduced. After all, an APP on a smartphone can translate different languages quickly, helping people who speak different languages communicate. In addition, AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and many other such tools or websites can help people realize all kinds of ideas, such as writing, drawing, making videos, searching for materials, and analyzing data. Most AI tools can help with writing in any language. Some teenagers think the ability to write in a foreign language or a native language is not important, as long as they can use AI tools. They no longer need to spend a lot of time learning these “fungible” skills. However, other young people have different ideas. They believe that improving information literacy (信息素养) and the ability to control AI technology is more important in the time of AI. This includes not only basic computer skills, but also thinking and moral judgment (道德判断). Students should be prepared to live with AI, learn knowledge, use AI, and even develop new AI tools. 1．AI technology is not widely used in ________. A．self-driving cars B．smart home C．data analysis D．emotional understanding 2．AI translation tools ________. A．can completely replace foreign language learning B．can translate all languages easily C．reduce the need to learn a foreign language D．can only help users with a written translation 3．What does the underlined (划线的) word “fungible” mean? A．Replaceable. B．Repetitive. C．Useless. D．Boring. 4．What does the writer want to tell us? A．In the time of AI, students don’t need to learn any foreign language. B．It’s not important for people to improve their writing. C．People should learn more and master skills that cannot be replaced by AI tools. D．Computer skills are more important than thinking and moral judgment. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文主要讨论了人工智能技术快速发展对人们生活和工作带来的影响，尤其是关于AI工具是否取代人类技能（如外语学习）的争议，并提出了应对AI时代的建议。 【详解】226．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“From self-driving cars to smart homes to data analysis, AI is gradually changing the way we work and live.”可知，从自动驾驶汽车到智能家居再到数据分析，AI正在逐渐改变我们的工作和生活方式，A、B、C三项均被提及，而D项“emotional understanding”未在文中体现。故选D。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Some young people believe that with the popularization of AI translation tools, the need to learn foreign languages is greatly reduced.”可知，AI翻译工具减少了学习外语的需求。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“They no longer need to spend a lot of time learning these ‘fungible’ skills.”结合上下文可知，AI工具可替代外语写作等技能，故“fungible”意为“可替代的”。A项“Replaceable”符合。故选A。 3．主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“They believe that improving information literacy… is more important in the time of AI… Students should be prepared to live with AI…”可知，作者强调人们应掌握AI无法替代的技能。故选C。 Passage4 （25-26九年级上·广州市中山大学附属中学雅宝学校·期中） Wang Tingrui’s story with digital fonts (电子字体) began with an old book. He scanned (扫描) each character (汉字), turned them into digital forms, and called the font “Kinghwa Old Songti.” His work shows the spirit of young people who try to save the old shapes of Chinese characters and share them with the world. To understand his effort, we need to look at the history of printing. In the Song Dynasty, people started to use movable type (活字印刷). Centuries later, Gutenberg created metal movable type in Europe, and this idea came back to East Asia in the nineteenth century. From the late nineteenth century to the twentieth century, lead types (铅字块) flourished in East Asia. Two main styles, Songti and Heiti, became the most common. They were widely used in newspapers and textbooks. These fonts made reading clearer and became part of daily life. But with the rise of digital publishing, lead types soon disappeared. Although many old ones were thrown away or changed into other things, ▲ . Some shops let visitors try printing with them, and some companies made digital copies. However, many readers felt these copies were not the same as the real ones, because they lost the special marks of hand work. Today, other “font archaeologists (字体考古学家)” like Wang continue this work. They scan old books, save rare characters, and even use AI to rebuild missing ones. For them, fonts are not just tools for writing, but also cultural treasures that carry memories and value. Wang still adds new characters to his digital font. Every discovery keeps part of Chinese tradition alive. Every font saved is a memory kept, and a future protected. 1．Which shows the development of the fonts mentioned in the passage? A．Metal movable type→Movable type→Digital fonts. B．Movable type→Metal movable type→Digital fonts. C．Digital fonts→Movable type→Metal movable type. D．Movable type→Digital fonts→Metal movable type. 2．What drove Wang to create “Kinghwa Old Songti”? A．A task to produce new art styles. B．A plan to follow foreign printers. C．A wish to protect traditional characters. D．A need to make money from business. 3．Which of the following can be put in  _ ▲ ? A．digital copies were easy to make B．people no longer loved printing C．the types were very useless D．a few pieces were well kept 4．Which sentence uses “flourish” the same way as the underlined word? A．He flourished his new car proudly in the neighborhood. B．Online short videos flourished fast among the young. C．Wild mushrooms flourish after rain, but don’t eat them. D．She opened the gift box with a flourish before her friends. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了Wang Tingrui通过扫描古籍汉字创建数字字体“京华老宋体”的故事，以及字体从活字印刷到数字字体的发展历程。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据文章“In the Song Dynasty, people started to use movable type...Centuries later, Gutenberg created metal movable type in Europe...But with the rise of digital publishing...and some companies made digital copies.”可知字体发展顺序为：活字印刷→金属活字→数字字体。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据文章“His work shows the spirit of young people who try to save the old shapes of Chinese characters...”可知，Wang Tingrui的动机是保护传统汉字形态。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据文章“Some shops let visitors try printing with them, and some companies made digital copies.”可知，一些商店允许访客尝试用它们进行印刷，也有一些公司制作了数字复制品，这说明铅字被保留了。选项D“仍有少量被完好保存下来”符合语境。故选D。 4．词句猜测题。根据文章“...lead types flourished in East Asia. Two main styles, Songti and Heiti, became the most common. They were widely used in newspapers and textbooks.”可知，铅字主要的两种字体风格被广泛应用，说明铅字在东亚地区兴盛，“flourished”指“兴盛”，与选项B“网络短视频在年轻人中迅速风靡。”意思相近。故选B。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题04 阅读理解（说明文）（广州专用） 主题01 人与社会——家庭生活、亲子关系 Passage 1 1．D 2．B 3．C 4．C Passage 2 1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C Passage 3 1．D 2．B 3．D 4．D Passage4 1．D 2．A 3．B 4．C 主题02人与社会——青少年问题与建议 Passage 1 1．A 2．B 3．A 4．D Passage 2 1．D 2．D 3．C 4．A Passage 3 1．B 2．A 3．A 4．C 主题03人与自我——自我管理与自我提升 Passage 1 1．B 2．A 3．D 4．C Passage 2 1．A 2．C 3．D 4．B 主题01人与社会——科普知识 Passage 1 1．D 2．C 3．A 4．A 主题02人与社会——电视与影视 Passage 1 1．A 2．D 3．D 4．C Passage 2 1．A 2．B 3．D 4．C 主题03人与社会——问题与建议 Passage 1 1．B 2．C 3．D 4．C 5．A Passage2 1．D 2．C 3．D 4．A Passage3 1．A 2．C 3．D 4．A 主题04人与社会——科学技术、科普知识 Passage1 1．C 2．B 3．D 4．B Passage2 1．B 2．C 3．C 4．D Passage3 1．D 2．C 3．A 4．C Passage4 1．B 2．C 3．D 4．B / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
