It is always a wonderful experience, and this time, I get a special life lesson from tiny ants. We start our journey early in the morning. The path is difficult to walk on, so I quickly want to give up. But dad points to some ants carrying big things and says, “Look at them! They never stop. You can do it too.” I look down and see them working very hard. They keep moving forward no matter (无论) how heavy the things they carry are. That gives me courage. We keep going. Along the way, a small stream runs down the mountain, singing a cheerful song. The birds are singing in the trees, and the flowers are smiling at us. When we finally reach the top, the clouds are big and white, and the sun is shining. The whole world looks so beautiful. I can see far away, and all the tiredness goes away. This trip is a life lesson. It teaches me that not giving up can lead to great results. Just like the ants, if we keep trying, we can achieve (实现) our goals (目标) . 1．What does the writer do with his dad every summer? A．Go swimming. B．Go hiking. C．Go camping.

For a long time, I closed my heart and refused to talk to anyone around me. I lost interest in study, sports and all my old hobbies. I often stayed alone in my room, staring out of the window for hours.  The doctor told my grandparents that I had depression (抑郁症). The whole world seemed colorless and cold to me. Just when I thought I would live in darkness (黑暗) forever, a girl named Lin Yue came into my life. She was my deskmate and soon became my best friend, my only companion (同伴). She never pushed me to speak, but always sat quietly with me during breaks. She shared her snacks, brought me new picture books, and walked home with me every day. She listened to my silent tears and told me that light would finally come to my world. With her company and warmth, I slowly started to smile, speak to classmates and pick up my hobbies again. I thought I had walked out of the deep darkness completely. We promised to go to the same high school, grow old together and never leave each other. One summer afternoon, we went to the lake near our town to enjoy the cool wind. Lin Yue tried to pick up a toy that fell into the water. Suddenly she slipped and fell into the deep lake. Before I could shout for help, she was taken away by the running water. I lost my only light in the world again. For weeks, I could not eat or sleep. The terrible fear and sadness came back, but this time I had no one to hold me. Later, I found a small notebook that Lin Yue had written for me. In it, she said that life is full of unexpected (意想不到的) sadness and loss, but every warm moment we share is worth living for. She hoped that I would keep being brave, not for her, but for myself, for the beautiful world, and for the love that still stays in my life. Now I am in Grade Seven. I still miss my parents and Lin Yue deeply. The sadness never really goes away, but I do not fall into darkness again. I understand that life is not only about losing and crying. It is about cherishing (珍惜) every warm minute, being brave for the ones who love us, and moving on with the light they leave in our hearts. We cannot stop bad things from happening, but we can choose to live brightly and softly, with all the love we have ever received. 1．From the paragraph 2, what can we infer about the writer’s condition before Lin Yue appeared? A．She was in a very low state and almost lost hope in life. B．She still had some small hopes for her study and daily life. C．She enjoyed staying alone and had no wish to make any friends. D．She often talked with her grandparents about her parents. 2．Why did the writer fall into great sadness again after the accident by the lake? A．Because she lost Lin Yue, the person who pulled her out of depression. B．Because she failed to finish her schoolwork on time. C．Because she blamed herself for not learning to swim earlier. D．Because the cold weather near the lake made her seriously ill. 3．What does the underlined word “loss” in the paragraph 4 most probably mean according to the context? A．The pain of losing someone or something important. B．The process of making new friends. C．The feeling of gaining something valuable. D．The happiness of enjoying warm moments. 4．What is the deepest message the writer wants to send to readers in the last paragraph? A．We should keep brave and live brightly with the love from others. B．Sadness will disappear soon if we make more new friends. C．We must try our best to stop all terrible accidents in life. D．Staying alone is a good way to keep the memory of the dead. 5．What can we infer from the passage about the writer’s change after reading Lin Yue’s notebook? A．She realized that sadness and memories can become courage to keep going. B．She forgot all the sadness of losing her parents and best friend at once. C．She decided to stay alone forever to keep the days with Lin Yue in her heart. D．She believed that making new best friends is the only way to walk out of darkness. 重难词汇梳理 1. accident /ˈæksɪdənt/n. 事故，意外 2. refuse /rɪˈfjuːz/v. 拒绝 3. depression /dɪˈpreʃn/n. 抑郁症；消沉 4. companion /kəmˈpæniən/n. 同伴，伙伴 5. slip /slɪp/v. 滑倒，失足 6. unexpected /ˌʌnɪkˈspektɪd/adj. 意想不到的 7. loss /lɒs/n. 失去，损失 8. brave /breɪv/adj. 勇敢的 9. cherish /ˈtʃerɪʃ/v. 珍惜 10. receive /rɪˈsiːv/v. 收到，得到 长难句解析 句 1 原句：For a long time, I closed my heart and refused to talk to anyone around me. 翻译：很长一段时间里，我封闭内心，拒绝和身边任何人交谈。 **句子分析** 本句为主句，由 and 连接两个并列谓语。`For a long time` 作时间状语；主语 I；并列谓语 closed 和 refused。 固定搭配：refuse to do sth. 拒绝做某事；`around me`介词短语作后置定语，修饰 anyone。 句 2 原句：We cannot stop bad things from happening, but we can choose to live brightly and softly, with all the love we have ever received. 翻译：我们无法阻止坏事发生，但我们可以选择带着曾经收获的所有爱，明亮而温柔地生活。 **句子分析** 本句由 but 连接两个并列分句，表转折。 前半句：`stop … from doing sth.` 阻止…… 做某事； 后半句主语 we，谓语 can choose，不定式`to live brightly and softly`作宾语；`with all the love`作伴随状语；`we have ever received`是省略关系代词 that 的定语从句，修饰先行词 love。 参考译文 在我只有六岁的时候，父母在一场惨烈的车祸中离世。很长一段时间，我封闭自己的内心，不愿和周围任何人说话。我对学习、运动以及从前所有的爱好都失去了兴趣。我常常独自待在房间里，一连几个小时望着窗外。医生告诉爷爷奶奶，我患上了抑郁症。对我来说，整个世界都黯淡冰冷。 就在我以为自己会永远活在黑暗中的时候，一个叫林悦的女孩走进了我的生活。她是我的同桌，很快成了我最好的朋友，我唯一的伙伴。她从不强迫我开口，课间只是安静地陪着我。她分给我零食，带给我新的绘本，每天陪我一起走路回家。她读懂我无声的泪水，告诉我光明终会降临我的世界。在她的陪伴与温暖下，我慢慢开始微笑、和同学说话，重新拾起爱好。我以为自己已经彻底走出深深的黑暗。我们约定考上同一所高中，相伴到老，永不分离。 一个夏日午后，我们来到小镇附近的湖边纳凉。林悦想去捡掉进水里的玩具，突然脚下一滑，坠入深深的湖中。我还没来得及呼救，她就被湍急的水流带走了。我再次失去了世上唯一的光。连续几周，我吃不下、睡不着。巨大的恐惧和悲伤再次袭来，但这一次，没有人可以依靠。 后来，我找到了一本林悦写给我的小笔记本。里面写道，生活充满意料之外的悲伤与失去，但我们共度的每一个温暖瞬间，都值得我们好好活下去。她希望我一直勇敢，不是为了她，而是为我自己，为这美好的世界，为留存于我生命里的爱。 现在我上七年级了。我依旧深深思念父母和林悦。悲伤从未真正消失，但我不会再次坠入黑暗。我明白了，生活不只有失去和哭泣。生活是珍惜每一刻温暖，为爱我们的人勇敢前行，带着留在心底的光继续往前走。我们无法阻止坏事发生，但我们可以选择带着所有曾经收到的爱，明亮且温柔地生活。 Passage1 （2026·河南省中考英语真题） “Why is the sky blue?” “Why do we add sugar to food?” “Why…?” Everyone knew 10-year-old Ananya as “the question girl”. “Ananya, stop asking so many questions!” her teacher Mrs. Sharma would say. “Just accept things as they are,” her grandmother told her. “She talks too much,” her classmates avoided her. Ananya felt lonely. Maybe everyone was right. Maybe asking questions was bad. But Ananya couldn’t help it. She wanted to understand everything. One day, Mr. Patel, a new science teacher, joined their school. In his first class, Ananya raised her hand, “Why do birds fly south?” The class complained (抱怨), “Not again!” But Mr. Patel smiled, “That’s an excellent question! Who else wants to know why?” Ananya blinked (眨眼) in surprise. No teacher had ever said that before! After class, Mr. Patel called Ananya aside. “Don’t ever stop asking questions,” he said. “Do you know what scientists do all day? They ask ‘why’. Every scientist was once a curious child.” For the first time, Ananya didn’t feel annoyed (烦恼的). She felt special. Mr. Patel taught Ananya to find answers herself. “When you have a question, first try to find the answer. Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask.” Ananya started visiting the library. She read books about science and nature. She started a “Question Notebook”. Her questions became better. Instead of “Why is the sky blue?” she asked “Why does the sky’s color change during sunrise?” Teachers noticed. Ananya’s questions now sparked interesting discussions. When Ananya was twelve, she had a question: “Why do some street dogs sleep on the road at night?” She studied that for three months. Then she created a project showing temperature differences. It won first prize at school, then district, then national level! Today, Ananya is 24 and studies environmental science. She still asks “why” all the time. She visits schools, talking to children. “Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious,” she tells them. 1．Why did Ananya’s classmates avoid her? A．Because she didn’t like to talk with others. B．Because she kept asking so many questions. C．Because she always got into trouble with others. D．Because she couldn’t answer teachers’ questions. 2．What does the underlined word “curious” mean in the text? A．Dealing with danger with courage. B．Showing a sense of humor. C．Wanting to know about something. D．Enjoying meeting new people. 3．What did Mr. Patel do to help Ananya? A．He taught her some social skills. B．He created a project with her.

Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask. 翻译：当你产生疑问时，先试着自己寻找答案。多读书，仔细观察。之后，如果仍然不明白，再去提问。 **句子分析** `When you have a question` 是 when 引导的时间状语从句；主句为祈使句`first try to find the answer`，try to do sth. 尽力做某事。 后面两句均为省略主语 you 的祈使句。`if you still don’t understand`是 if 引导条件状语从句，最后的 ask 同样是祈使句，省略宾语。 句 2 原句：Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious. 翻译：永远不要因为你的好奇心，让任何人使你感到自卑。 **句子分析** 本句为否定祈使句。结构：`let sb. do sth.` 让某人做某事；`make sb. do sth.` 使某人做某事。 `feel bad` 感到难受、自卑；`for being curious`介词短语作原因状语，for 是介词，后面接动名词短语 being curious。 Passage2 （2026·四川省广安市中考英语真题） In a small village, there lived a famous old carpenter (木匠).

When you perfect every part, you can make a perfect piece.” The young man understood that carpentry was not only about making things but also about shaping the mind.

He wanted to persuade her that she was wasting her time. He said, “But look, there are hundreds of starfish here. You can’t possibly pick them all up and throw them back. It’s meaningless. Can’t you see that you can’t possibly make a difference here?” The girl smiled, bent down and picked up another starfish, and as she threw it back into the sea, she answered, “If I hadn’t thrown it back, it would have died.

The teacher notices that and asks him, “Why do you want to take rock climbing lessons?” “I come for fun, of course.” “Is that fun?” the teacher asks. Tony shakes (摇晃) his head.

Every year, his classmates would laugh at him, and Tom felt more and more disappointed. One day, Tom’s grandfather, a wise old man, saw him crying in the garden. “Why do you let their words hurt you?” the grandfather asked. “Running is not about beating others. It’s about beating yourself. Instead of focusing on others, focus on your own progress.” Tom thought about his grandfather’s words for a long time. He decided to train for the next race. Every morning, he got up at 5 a.m. and ran around the park. At first, he could only run for five minutes without stopping. But he kept going. After three months, he could run for thirty minutes. After six months, he could run for an hour. On the day of the race, Tom still didn’t win. But this time, he finished in the middle of the group — not first, but not last either.

He said with a smile, “I know there are too many tests for you these days, but the test today is very 1 . It is different from your other tests.” The teacher started to hand out the test papers to each student. There was only a small black “X” in the middle of the paper. The students were very 2 to see that. The teacher noticed the students’ surprise. Then he said, “I want you to 3 what you see there. You must finish it by yourselves.” All the students 4 about it hard and then wrote down their answers quietly. The next day, the teacher said, “You only paid attention to the black ‘X’, but nobody wrote about the white paper.” The whole class listened 5 , because they worried that they might fail the exam. Then the teacher said, “Don’t worry. I just want you to think about your 5 .

It is always a wonderful experience, and this time, I get a special life lesson from tiny ants. We start our journey early in the morning. The path is difficult to walk on, so I quickly want to give up. But dad points to some ants carrying big things and says, “Look at them! They never stop. You can do it too.” I look down and see them working very hard. They keep moving forward no matter (无论) how heavy the things they carry are. That gives me courage. We keep going. Along the way, a small stream runs down the mountain, singing a cheerful song. The birds are singing in the trees, and the flowers are smiling at us. When we finally reach the top, the clouds are big and white, and the sun is shining. The whole world looks so beautiful. I can see far away, and all the tiredness goes away. This trip is a life lesson. It teaches me that not giving up can lead to great results. Just like the ants, if we keep trying, we can achieve (实现) our goals (目标) . 1．What does the writer do with his dad every summer? A．Go swimming. B．Go hiking. C．Go camping.

For a long time, I closed my heart and refused to talk to anyone around me. I lost interest in study, sports and all my old hobbies. I often stayed alone in my room, staring out of the window for hours.  The doctor told my grandparents that I had depression (抑郁症). The whole world seemed colorless and cold to me. Just when I thought I would live in darkness (黑暗) forever, a girl named Lin Yue came into my life. She was my deskmate and soon became my best friend, my only companion (同伴). She never pushed me to speak, but always sat quietly with me during breaks. She shared her snacks, brought me new picture books, and walked home with me every day. She listened to my silent tears and told me that light would finally come to my world. With her company and warmth, I slowly started to smile, speak to classmates and pick up my hobbies again. I thought I had walked out of the deep darkness completely. We promised to go to the same high school, grow old together and never leave each other. One summer afternoon, we went to the lake near our town to enjoy the cool wind. Lin Yue tried to pick up a toy that fell into the water. Suddenly she slipped and fell into the deep lake. Before I could shout for help, she was taken away by the running water. I lost my only light in the world again. For weeks, I could not eat or sleep. The terrible fear and sadness came back, but this time I had no one to hold me. Later, I found a small notebook that Lin Yue had written for me. In it, she said that life is full of unexpected (意想不到的) sadness and loss, but every warm moment we share is worth living for. She hoped that I would keep being brave, not for her, but for myself, for the beautiful world, and for the love that still stays in my life. Now I am in Grade Seven. I still miss my parents and Lin Yue deeply. The sadness never really goes away, but I do not fall into darkness again. I understand that life is not only about losing and crying. It is about cherishing (珍惜) every warm minute, being brave for the ones who love us, and moving on with the light they leave in our hearts. We cannot stop bad things from happening, but we can choose to live brightly and softly, with all the love we have ever received. 1．From the paragraph 2, what can we infer about the writer’s condition before Lin Yue appeared? A．She was in a very low state and almost lost hope in life. B．She still had some small hopes for her study and daily life. C．She enjoyed staying alone and had no wish to make any friends. D．She often talked with her grandparents about her parents. 2．Why did the writer fall into great sadness again after the accident by the lake? A．Because she lost Lin Yue, the person who pulled her out of depression. B．Because she failed to finish her schoolwork on time. C．Because she blamed herself for not learning to swim earlier. D．Because the cold weather near the lake made her seriously ill. 3．What does the underlined word “loss” in the paragraph 4 most probably mean according to the context? A．The pain of losing someone or something important. B．The process of making new friends. C．The feeling of gaining something valuable. D．The happiness of enjoying warm moments. 4．What is the deepest message the writer wants to send to readers in the last paragraph? A．We should keep brave and live brightly with the love from others. B．Sadness will disappear soon if we make more new friends. C．We must try our best to stop all terrible accidents in life. D．Staying alone is a good way to keep the memory of the dead. 5．What can we infer from the passage about the writer’s change after reading Lin Yue’s notebook? A．She realized that sadness and memories can become courage to keep going. B．She forgot all the sadness of losing her parents and best friend at once. C．She decided to stay alone forever to keep the days with Lin Yue in her heart. D．She believed that making new best friends is the only way to walk out of darkness. 重难词汇梳理 1. accident /ˈæksɪdənt/n. 事故，意外 2. refuse /rɪˈfjuːz/v. 拒绝 3. depression /dɪˈpreʃn/n. 抑郁症；消沉 4. companion /kəmˈpæniən/n. 同伴，伙伴 5. slip /slɪp/v. 滑倒，失足 6. unexpected /ˌʌnɪkˈspektɪd/adj. 意想不到的 7. loss /lɒs/n. 失去，损失 8. brave /breɪv/adj. 勇敢的 9. cherish /ˈtʃerɪʃ/v. 珍惜 10. receive /rɪˈsiːv/v. 收到，得到 长难句解析 句 1 原句：For a long time, I closed my heart and refused to talk to anyone around me. 翻译：很长一段时间里，我封闭内心，拒绝和身边任何人交谈。 **句子分析** 本句为主句，由 and 连接两个并列谓语。`For a long time` 作时间状语；主语 I；并列谓语 closed 和 refused。 固定搭配：refuse to do sth. 拒绝做某事；`around me`介词短语作后置定语，修饰 anyone。 句 2 原句：We cannot stop bad things from happening, but we can choose to live brightly and softly, with all the love we have ever received. 翻译：我们无法阻止坏事发生，但我们可以选择带着曾经收获的所有爱，明亮而温柔地生活。 **句子分析** 本句由 but 连接两个并列分句，表转折。 前半句：`stop … from doing sth.` 阻止…… 做某事； 后半句主语 we，谓语 can choose，不定式`to live brightly and softly`作宾语；`with all the love`作伴随状语；`we have ever received`是省略关系代词 that 的定语从句，修饰先行词 love。 【答案】1．A 2．A 3．A 4．A 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者六岁失去父母后患上抑郁症，好友林悦的陪伴将带她走出阴霾，林悦意外离世后，她从好友留下的笔记本感悟到要带着爱意勇敢生活。 【详解】 1．第二段指出：“Just when I thought I would live in darkness forever, a girl named Lin Yue came into my life”，这直接说明在林悦出现之前，作者处在情绪低谷，几乎对生活失去希望。 2．第三段说明原因：“I lost my only light in the world again. For weeks, I could not eat or sleep. The terrible fear and sadness came back, but this time I had no one to hold me”，表明林悦是把作者从抑郁中解救出来的人，她的离世让作者再度陷入巨大悲伤。 3．第四段提到：“In it, she said that life is full of unexpected sadness and loss, but every warm moment we share is worth living for”，结合前文作者接连失去至亲挚友可推断，loss指失去重要的人或事物带来的痛苦，即“The pain of losing someone or something important.”。 4．最后一段点明主旨句：“We cannot stop bad things from happening, but we can choose to live brightly and softly, with all the love we have ever received”，说明文章深层内涵：坏事无法避免，但我们要怀揣他人给予的爱勇敢向阳生活，这也是作者想要向读者传达的内涵。 5．第四段提到：“She hoped that I would keep being brave, not for her, but for myself, for the beautiful world, and for the love that still stays in my life.”和第五段指出：“The sadness never really goes away, but I do not fall into darkness again”，表明读完笔记本后作者懂得悲伤与回忆可以化作继续前行的勇气。 参考译文 在我只有六岁的时候，父母在一场惨烈的车祸中离世。很长一段时间，我封闭自己的内心，不愿和周围任何人说话。我对学习、运动以及从前所有的爱好都失去了兴趣。我常常独自待在房间里，一连几个小时望着窗外。医生告诉爷爷奶奶，我患上了抑郁症。对我来说，整个世界都黯淡冰冷。 就在我以为自己会永远活在黑暗中的时候，一个叫林悦的女孩走进了我的生活。她是我的同桌，很快成了我最好的朋友，我唯一的伙伴。她从不强迫我开口，课间只是安静地陪着我。她分给我零食，带给我新的绘本，每天陪我一起走路回家。她读懂我无声的泪水，告诉我光明终会降临我的世界。在她的陪伴与温暖下，我慢慢开始微笑、和同学说话，重新拾起爱好。我以为自己已经彻底走出深深的黑暗。我们约定考上同一所高中，相伴到老，永不分离。 一个夏日午后，我们来到小镇附近的湖边纳凉。林悦想去捡掉进水里的玩具，突然脚下一滑，坠入深深的湖中。我还没来得及呼救，她就被湍急的水流带走了。我再次失去了世上唯一的光。连续几周，我吃不下、睡不着。巨大的恐惧和悲伤再次袭来，但这一次，没有人可以依靠。 后来，我找到了一本林悦写给我的小笔记本。里面写道，生活充满意料之外的悲伤与失去，但我们共度的每一个温暖瞬间，都值得我们好好活下去。她希望我一直勇敢，不是为了她，而是为我自己，为这美好的世界，为留存于我生命里的爱。 现在我上七年级了。我依旧深深思念父母和林悦。悲伤从未真正消失，但我不会再次坠入黑暗。我明白了，生活不只有失去和哭泣。生活是珍惜每一刻温暖，为爱我们的人勇敢前行，带着留在心底的光继续往前走。我们无法阻止坏事发生，但我们可以选择带着所有曾经收到的爱，明亮且温柔地生活。 Passage1 （2026·河南省中考英语真题） “Why is the sky blue?” “Why do we add sugar to food?” “Why…?” Everyone knew 10-year-old Ananya as “the question girl”. “Ananya, stop asking so many questions!” her teacher Mrs. Sharma would say. “Just accept things as they are,” her grandmother told her. “She talks too much,” her classmates avoided her. Ananya felt lonely. Maybe everyone was right. Maybe asking questions was bad. But Ananya couldn’t help it. She wanted to understand everything. One day, Mr. Patel, a new science teacher, joined their school. In his first class, Ananya raised her hand, “Why do birds fly south?” The class complained (抱怨), “Not again!” But Mr. Patel smiled, “That’s an excellent question! Who else wants to know why?” Ananya blinked (眨眼) in surprise. No teacher had ever said that before! After class, Mr. Patel called Ananya aside. “Don’t ever stop asking questions,” he said. “Do you know what scientists do all day? They ask ‘why’. Every scientist was once a curious child.” For the first time, Ananya didn’t feel annoyed (烦恼的). She felt special. Mr. Patel taught Ananya to find answers herself. “When you have a question, first try to find the answer. Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask.” Ananya started visiting the library. She read books about science and nature. She started a “Question Notebook”. Her questions became better. Instead of “Why is the sky blue?” she asked “Why does the sky’s color change during sunrise?” Teachers noticed. Ananya’s questions now sparked interesting discussions. When Ananya was twelve, she had a question: “Why do some street dogs sleep on the road at night?” She studied that for three months. Then she created a project showing temperature differences. It won first prize at school, then district, then national level! Today, Ananya is 24 and studies environmental science. She still asks “why” all the time. She visits schools, talking to children. “Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious,” she tells them. 1．Why did Ananya’s classmates avoid her? A．Because she didn’t like to talk with others. B．Because she kept asking so many questions. C．Because she always got into trouble with others. D．Because she couldn’t answer teachers’ questions. 2．What does the underlined word “curious” mean in the text? A．Dealing with danger with courage. B．Showing a sense of humor. C．Wanting to know about something. D．Enjoying meeting new people. 3．What did Mr. Patel do to help Ananya? A．He taught her some social skills. B．He created a project with her. C．He bought a lot of books for her. D．He encouraged her to ask wisely. 4．Which of the following can be put in __#__? A．How I became a good student B．Why I had to take notes C．Where I found the real answer D．Who I made friends with 5．What can be learned from the story? A．Every question is a door opening. B．Many hands make light work. C．Actions speak louder than words. D．Be thankful for what you have. 重难词汇梳理 1. accept /əkˈsept/v. 接受 2. avoid /əˈvɔɪd/v. 回避，避开 3. lonely /ˈləʊnli/adj. 孤独的 4. complain /kəmˈpleɪn/v. 抱怨 5. excellent /ˈeksələnt/adj. 极好的，优秀的 6. curious /ˈkjʊəriəs/adj. 好奇的 7. spark /spɑːk/v. 引发，激发；n. 火花 8. district /ˈdɪstrɪkt/n. 地区，区域 9. national /ˈnæʃnəl/adj. 全国的；国家的 10. environmental /ɪnˌvaɪrənˈmentl/adj. 环境的 长难句解析 句 1 原句：When you have a question, first try to find the answer. Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask. 翻译：当你产生疑问时，先试着自己寻找答案。多读书，仔细观察。之后，如果仍然不明白，再去提问。 **句子分析** `When you have a question` 是 when 引导的时间状语从句；主句为祈使句`first try to find the answer`，try to do sth. 尽力做某事。 后面两句均为省略主语 you 的祈使句。`if you still don’t understand`是 if 引导条件状语从句，最后的 ask 同样是祈使句，省略宾语。 句 2 原句：Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious. 翻译：永远不要因为你的好奇心，让任何人使你感到自卑。 **句子分析** 本句为否定祈使句。结构：`let sb. do sth.` 让某人做某事；`make sb. do sth.` 使某人做某事。 `feel bad` 感到难受、自卑；`for being curious`介词短语作原因状语，for 是介词，后面接动名词短语 being curious。 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文讲述爱提问的女孩Ananya在老师鼓励下坚守好奇心、自主探究，最终学有所成，告诉我们要保持求知欲、敢于发问。 【详解】 1．根据第三段“‘She talks too much,’ her classmates avoided her.”可知，Ananya话太多，指代的是“不停问问题”，所以同学都避开她。 2．根据第六段“Every scientist was once a curious child.”以及全文Ananya总爱问为什么，可得知curious含义是“好奇的，想要弄清楚事物”。 3．根据第七段“When you have a question, first try to find the answer. Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask.”可知，Patel教Ananya自己查书、观察，再提问，也就是教她如何明智地提问。 4．根据文中图片“Question Notebook”可知，此处的逻辑应是：提出问题→猜测答案→寻找真实答案的地方→产生新问题，只有C符合笔记逻辑。 5．根据全文以及文章最后“Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious,”，说明本文以Ananya为例，鼓励大家保持好奇心、多提问能让人不断探索、成长、取得成就。A选项“每个问题都是一扇门的开启。”契合提问带来探索与成长的主题。 Passage2 （2026·四川省广安市中考英语真题） In a small village, there lived a famous old carpenter (木匠). People travelled from far and wide to buy his furniture. One day, a young man came to learn from him. The young man loved working with wood but was always hurrying to finish things. After a few days of learning from the carpenter, the young man thought, “I can make furniture faster.” The old carpenter noticed this and said, “I can teach you to make furniture quickly, but first, you need to do a simple job.” He then passed the young man a rough board and said, “Make this board smooth.” The man thought it was easy. He sanded (用砂纸打磨) the board a few times and soon gave it back confidently. The old carpenter felt the board and said, “It is not smooth enough. Try again.” A little impatient, the young man sanded harder. But the old carpenter shook his head once again. Feeling sad, the young man started to think more. He wasn’t in a hurry anymore and sanded every part of the board carefully. Finally, the board was as smooth as a mirror. He was so pleased with his work. This time, the old carpenter smiled and said, “You have learned an important lesson. Success needs not only skill but also patience. The simpler the job is, the more patience we need. When you perfect every part, you can make a perfect piece.” The young man understood that carpentry was not only about making things but also about shaping the mind. Life is like this — a successful person moves forward step by step. 1．Why did the young man visit the old carpenter? A．To travel around. B．To buy furniture. C．To help him. D．To learn from him. 2．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Making furniture faster. B．Making the board smooth. C．Working with wood.

B．Impatient → Confident → Sad → Pleased. C．Pleased → Impatient → Sad → Confident. D．Confident → Impatient → Sad → Pleased. 5．What can we learn from the story? A．Success needs skill and patience. B．The simple job needs less patience. C．Carpentry isn’t about shaping the mind. D．A successful person moves forward quickly. 重难词汇梳理 1. carpenter /ˈkɑːpəntə(r)/n. 木匠 2. furniture /ˈfɜːnɪtʃə(r)/n. 家具（不可数名词） 3. rough /rʌf/adj. 粗糙的 4. smooth /smuːð/adj. 光滑的 v. 使光滑 5. sand /sænd/v. 用砂纸打磨；n. 沙子 6. confidently /ˈkɒnfɪdəntli/adv. 自信地 7. impatient /ɪmˈpeɪʃnt/adj. 不耐烦的 8. patience /ˈpeɪʃns/n. 耐心 9. perfect /pəˈfekt/v. 使完美；/ˈpɜːfɪkt/adj. 完美的 10. shape /ʃeɪp/v. 塑造；n. 形状 长难句解析 句 1 原句：Success needs not only skill but also patience. 翻译：成功不仅需要技艺，还需要耐心。 **句子分析** 本句为主谓宾结构。主语 Success，谓语 needs；`not only … but also …` 固定连词短语，意为 “不仅…… 而且……”，并列两个宾语 skill 和 patience。这是本句核心考点。 句 2 原句：The simpler the job is, the more patience we need. 翻译：工作越简单，我们需要的耐心就越多。 **句子分析** 本句是**the + 比较级，the + 比较级**经典句型，表示 “越……，就越……”。 前半句`The simpler the job is`是从句；后半句`the more patience we need`为主句。 patience 是不可数名词，`more patience` 更多的耐心。 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．D 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了一位年轻木匠向老木匠学习，通过打磨木板的过程明白了成功不仅需要技巧，更需要耐心的道理。 【详解】 1．第二段提到“One day, a young man came to learn from him.”，这直接说明了年轻人拜访老木匠是为了向他学习。 2．第三段提到“He then passed the young man a rough board and said, ‘Make this board smooth.’”以及第四段“The man thought it was easy.”，这直接说明了“it”指代的是把木板磨光滑这件事。 3．第六段提到“He wasn’t in a hurry anymore and sanded every part of the board carefully.”，这直接说明了年轻人是通过仔细打磨每一部分来完成工作的。 4．第四段提到“gave it back confidently”，第五段提到“A little impatient”，第六段提到“Feeling sad”以及“He was so pleased with his work”，这直接说明了年轻人的情感变化过程是自信→不耐烦→难过→高兴。 5．倒数第二段提到“Success needs not only skill but also patience.”，这直接说明了我们从故事中可以学到成功需要技巧和耐心。 Passage 1 Once there was a writer who lived close to the sea. Every morning, he walked along the beach to get ideas for his writing. One sunny morning, as he was walking near the edge of the water, he looked along the beach and in the distance (远处). He saw a little girl near the water. She was bending down (弯腰) and then standing up. He wasn’t sure what she was doing. So he decided to go closer to find out. When he got near to the little girl, he saw that on the beach there were lots of starfish, and the little girl was picking them up, one at a time, and ▲ . The writer went closer to the girl and asked her what she was doing. The girl stopped and looked up at the writer—she seemed surprised. Then she said she was throwing the starfish back into the sea. She said, “The sun is up, and the tide (潮) is going out. If I don’t throw the starfish back into the water, they will die.” Now it was the writer who was surprised. He wanted to persuade her that she was wasting her time. He said, “But look, there are hundreds of starfish here. You can’t possibly pick them all up and throw them back. It’s meaningless. Can’t you see that you can’t possibly make a difference here?” The girl smiled, bent down and picked up another starfish, and as she threw it back into the sea, she answered, “If I hadn’t thrown it back, it would have died. I think I made a difference to that one.” 1．What did the writer do along the beach every morning? A．He took a walk. B．He watched the sunrise. C．He did some writing. D．He enjoyed the tide. 2．What did the writer see when he was far away from the girl? A．The tide was going up. B．There were a lot of starfish. C．The girl was picking up the starfish.

She was bending down (弯腰) and then standing up.”，这直接说明了作家在远处看到女孩弯腰然后站起来，此时他还不清楚她在做什么。 3．第四段提到“Then she said she was throwing the starfish back into the sea.”，女孩捡起海星的动作是将它们扔回海里，故▲处应填“throwing them into the water”。 4．第五段提到“He wanted to persuade her that she was wasting her time.”，结合上下文作家试图让女孩相信她在浪费时间，可推知“persuade”意为“劝说”。 5．最后一段提到“I think I made a difference to that one.”，这直接说明了女孩相信她所做的（救起那只海星）是有意义的。 Passage 2 Tony likes climbing very much.

The teacher notices that and asks him, “Why do you want to take rock climbing lessons?” “I come for fun, of course.” “Is that fun?” the teacher asks. Tony shakes (摇晃) his head.

He was not good at sports and often felt weak compared to his classmates. His greatest fear was the annual school running race because he always came last. Every year, his classmates would laugh at him, and Tom felt more and more disappointed. One day, Tom’s grandfather, a wise old man, saw him crying in the garden. “Why do you let their words hurt you?” the grandfather asked. “Running is not about beating others. It’s about beating yourself. Instead of focusing on others, focus on your own progress.” Tom thought about his grandfather’s words for a long time. He decided to train for the next race. Every morning, he got up at 5 a.m. and ran around the park. At first, he could only run for five minutes without stopping. But he kept going. After three months, he could run for thirty minutes. After six months, he could run for an hour. On the day of the race, Tom still didn’t win. But this time, he finished in the middle of the group — not first, but not last either. More importantly, he didn’t feel disappointed. He felt proud because he had improved a lot. His classmates stopped laughing and started respecting him. Tom learned an important lesson that day: success is not about being better than others. It’s about being better than you were yesterday.

He said with a smile, “I know there are too many tests for you these days, but the test today is very 1 . It is different from your other tests.” The teacher started to hand out the test papers to each student. There was only a small black “X” in the middle of the paper.

You must finish it by yourselves.” All the students 4 about it hard and then wrote down their answers quietly. The next day, the teacher said, “You only paid attention to the black ‘X’, but nobody wrote about the white paper.” The whole class listened 5 , because they worried that they might fail the exam.
