Let’s take a look at the lives of three well-known teachers who have a significant influence on people. Known as the first teacher in China, Confucius spent most of his life teaching and helping students solve problems. He had his own ideas about education. He was also the founder of Confucianism and private schools in China. On October 1st, 1949, Du Lan raised the first national flag in Hou Kong Middle School. On the day of Macao’s return to China, 87-year-old Du Lan raised the national flag, passing on her love for the country to the children of the school. In the past 27 years since the return of Macao to China, a flag-raising ceremony has been held every Monday. Zhang Guimei is the head teacher of Huaping Senior High School for Girls in Yunnan Province. The school offers free education to girls from poor families. More than 2,000 girls from the school have gone to university. The three teachers are all great teachers. What do you think of your teachers? On Teachers’ Day, don’t forget to send your best wishes to them. 38. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. How to show respect for teachers. B. Lives of three well-known teachers. C. How to be a great teacher. D. Differences of three great teachers. 39. Who is known as the first teacher in China? A. Zhang Guimei. B. Du Lan. C. Confucius. D. None of the above. 40. When did Du Lan raise the first national flag in Hou Kong Middle School? A. On the day of Macao’s return to China. B. On the first Teachers’ Day. C. On October 1st, 1949. D. On the school anniversary. 41. How many girls from Huaping Senior High School for Girls have gone to university? A. More than 2,000. B. Less than 200. C. Less than 2,000. D. More than 200. 42. What do all the three teachers have in common? A. They are founders of private schools. B. They all raised the national flag. C. They all did important things for education. D. They all offered free education to students. 【答案】38. B 39. C 40. C 41. A 42. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国三位知名教师（孔子、杜岚、张桂梅）的生平事迹与贡献，以此呼应教师节的主题。 【38题详解】 文章第一段明确指出“Let’s take a look at the lives of three well-known teachers who have a significant influence on people.”（让我们来看看三位对人们有显著影响的知名教师的生活），随后全文围绕这三位老师的事迹展开。这直接说明文章主要讲述的是三位知名教师的生活。 【39题详解】 第二段第一句指出“Known as the first teacher in China, Confucius spent most of his life teaching...”（被称为中国第一位教师的孔子，花了他大部分的时间教书……），这直接说明孔子被称为中国第一位教师。 【40题详解】 第三段第一句指出“On October 1st, 1949, Du Lan raised the first national flag in Hou Kong Middle School.”（1949年10月1日，杜岚在濠江中学升起了第一面国旗），这直接说明杜岚是在1949年10月1日升起第一面国旗的。 【41题详解】 第四段最后一句指出“More than 2,000 girls from the school have gone to university.”（该校超过2000名女孩已经上了大学），这直接说明有超过2000名女孩考上了大学。 【42题详解】 综合全文，孔子创办私学、杜岚通过升旗仪式进行爱国教育、张桂梅创办免费女高，虽然具体事迹不同，但这三位老师都在教育领域做出了卓越且重要的贡献。这直接说明他们的共同点是都为教育做了重要的事情。 C When I was in Year 7, Mum put up a piece of paper on the kitchen wall. It was a weekly plan. It showed wake-up times, study hours, and even a “no phone after 9:30 p.m.” rule. I looked at it and said, “This won’t work.” Mum just smiled and said, “We’ll see.” The first few days were messy. I didn’t check the list. I stayed up late watching videos and rushed through my homework. On Friday of that week, I got my school report for maths — 63 out of 100. That evening, Mum pointed at the paper and asked calmly, “Still think it won’t work?” I stayed quiet. The next Monday, Mum handed me a pencil. “You write the plan,” she said. So I did, though not very seriously at first. I set shorter study times and left more breaks. But this time, something felt different — it was my list. On Wednesday night, my phone rang with a video call. I wanted to reach for it, but then I noticed the paper. I didn’t want to mark “maths practice” without doing it. So I didn’t answer the phone. Instead, I sat down and studied for twenty minutes. The next day, when the teacher returned our maths homework, mine turned out to be the only one without mistakes! She even held it up in class. “Good improvement,” she said. That small moment stayed with me. Over the next few weeks, the paper on the wall changed again and again. I began to follow it more often. And when the next maths test came, I got 85. Later that day, I thought about what really changed. The list itself wasn’t special. The difference was that I stopped treating it as something Mum forced me to do and started using it as something I chose. The real change happened inside me. 43. What happened on the first Friday after Mum put up the plan? A. The writer got a low score in maths. B. The writer changed the plan himself. C. The writer followed the plan perfectly. D. The writer had a long talk with his mother. 44. Why did Mum ask the writer to write the plan? A. To save her time. B. To make the plan more fun. C. To help the writer follow it more actively. D. To give the writer a feeling of achievement. 45. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The phone. B. The paper. C. The video call. D. The maths practice. 46. How did the writer probably feel when the teacher held up his maths homework? A. Happy but worried. B. Happy and calm. C. Surprised and worried. D. Surprised but happy. 47. What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. A good study plan should include breaks. C. The power to change lies in our own hands. D. Small successes can bring about big changes. 【答案】43. A 44. C 45. A 46. D 47. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者母亲制定学习计划起初无效，后来让作者自己制定计划，作者因拥有自主权而主动遵守，最终成绩提高的故事，探讨了内在驱动力对改变的重要性。 【43题详解】 根据文章第2段“On Friday of that week, I got my school report for maths — 63 out of 100.”可知，作者在那周五数学考试分数较低。 【44题详解】 根据文章第3段“But this time, something felt different — it was my list.”及第7段“started using it as something I chose”可推知，妈妈让作者自己写计划是为了帮助作者更主动地遵守计划。 【45题详解】 根据文章第4段“On Wednesday night, my phone rang with a video call. I wanted to reach for it”可猜测“it”指代上文提到的my phone“手机”。 【46题详解】 根据文章第5段“mine turned out to be the only one without mistakes!... That small moment stayed with me.”可推知，作者对作业全对感到惊讶且因受到表扬感到开心。 【47题详解】 根据文章第7段“The real change happened inside me.”可推知，文章旨在说明改变的力量在于我们自己，故选C。 D Isaac Newton was a quiet boy. Having lost his father before he was born, he grew up with his grandmother. At 18, soon after he finished schooling, Newton would spend his time making small tools. His head teacher saw the genius in him and asked his mother to send him to the university. Newton set out for Cambridge in June, 1661. Newton was always trying to understand and explain a lot of things in nature. To test a question about colors, he would stare at the sun with one eye until all the colors changed. As a result, he had to stay in the dark for some time before his eye returned to normal. Newton was the first to show us that white light is made up of colors mixed together. He was also the first person to understand the rainbow and explain how it forms. A story goes like this: One day, an apple fell on Newton’s head, and it was then that Newton realized that the apple fell towards Earth and didn’t go anywhere else. He thought to himself, “How did this happen?” After doing some experiments, he later knew all objects always fall towards Earth’s centre because Earth attracts them. He realized that every object in the universe attracts every other object towards it. Then Newton discovered the law of universal gravitation. Newton was an English physicist, mathematician and astronomer. Because of the significant work Newton has done, he is widely considered as one of the greatest scientists of all time. 48. What can we learn about Newton from Paragraph 1? A. He made some small tools. B. He never studied in a university C. He didn’t like doing farm work. D. He lost his mother at a young age 49. Which words can best describe Newton when he was testing a question about colors? A. careful and lucky. B. skillful and smart C. relaxed and excited. D. hardworking and patient. 50. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us? A. When an apple fell on Newton’s head. B. How one object attracts another object. C. Why Newton was famous among people. D. How Newton made the important discovery. 51. What is the text structure of the passage? A. Life experience — achievements — comment B. Opinion — Examples — Explanation C. Problem — Process — Solution D. Comparison — Analysis — Conclusion 52. What can you learn from Newton’s experiences? A. Time waits for no man. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Roses given, fragrance in hand. D. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. 【答案】48. A 49. D 50. D 51. A 52. D 【解析】 【导语】本文先介绍他年少成长求学经历，接着讲述他研究光与色彩、受苹果启发发现万有引力的科学事迹，最后高度评价牛顿，称他是历史上最伟大的科学家之一，告诉我们做事要有恒心与意志。 【48题详解】 第一段指出 “Newton would spend his time making small tools”，直接说明牛顿会制作一些小工具。 【49题详解】 第二段指出 “To test a question about colors, he would stare at the sun with one eye until all the colors changed.”，为做实验他不惜伤害眼睛、坚持到现象出现，体现出勤奋并且有耐心。 【50题详解】 第三段讲述苹果落地带来启发，经过实验思考，牛顿发现万有引力，主要介绍牛顿如何完成这一重大发现。 【51题详解】 第一段介绍牛顿的早年人生经历；第二、三段介绍他的科学成就；文章末尾评价他是有史以来最伟大的科学家之一。所以结构是人生经历 — 成就 — 评价。 【52题详解】 全文讲述牛顿坚持不懈钻研、不断实验获得重大科学发现。Where there’s a will, there’s a way意为有志者事竟成；Time waits for no man时不我待；Practice makes perfect熟能生巧；Roses given, fragrance in hand赠人玫瑰手有余香，只有选项D贴合牛顿执着钻研的故事。 五、任务型阅读。 阅读下面短文，从选项中选择合适的句子填入文中空缺处，使短文内容完整、正确。 Change is a part of life, and it can happen in many ways. ____53____ But how do changes happen?

Known as the first teacher in China, Confucius spent most of his life teaching and helping students solve problems. He had his own ideas about education. He was also the founder of Confucianism and private schools in China. On October 1st, 1949, Du Lan raised the first national flag in Hou Kong Middle School. On the day of Macao’s return to China, 87-year-old Du Lan raised the national flag, passing on her love for the country to the children of the school. In the past 27 years since the return of Macao to China, a flag-raising ceremony has been held every Monday. Zhang Guimei is the head teacher of Huaping Senior High School for Girls in Yunnan Province. The school offers free education to girls from poor families. More than 2,000 girls from the school have gone to university. The three teachers are all great teachers. What do you think of your teachers?

It showed wake-up times, study hours, and even a “no phone after 9:30 p.m.” rule. I looked at it and said, “This won’t work.” Mum just smiled and said, “We’ll see.” The first few days were messy. I didn’t check the list. I stayed up late watching videos and rushed through my homework. On Friday of that week, I got my school report for maths — 63 out of 100. That evening, Mum pointed at the paper and asked calmly, “Still think it won’t work?” I stayed quiet. The next Monday, Mum handed me a pencil. “You write the plan,” she said. So I did, though not very seriously at first. I set shorter study times and left more breaks. But this time, something felt different — it was my list. On Wednesday night, my phone rang with a video call. I wanted to reach for it, but then I noticed the paper. I didn’t want to mark “maths practice” without doing it. So I didn’t answer the phone. Instead, I sat down and studied for twenty minutes. The next day, when the teacher returned our maths homework, mine turned out to be the only one without mistakes! She even held it up in class. “Good improvement,” she said. That small moment stayed with me. Over the next few weeks, the paper on the wall changed again and again. I began to follow it more often. And when the next maths test came, I got 85. Later that day, I thought about what really changed. The list itself wasn’t special. The difference was that I stopped treating it as something Mum forced me to do and started using it as something I chose. The real change happened inside me. 43. What happened on the first Friday after Mum put up the plan? A. The writer got a low score in maths. B. The writer changed the plan himself. C. The writer followed the plan perfectly. D. The writer had a long talk with his mother. 44. Why did Mum ask the writer to write the plan? A. To save her time. B. To make the plan more fun. C. To help the writer follow it more actively. D. To give the writer a feeling of achievement. 45. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The phone. B. The paper. C. The video call. D. The maths practice. 46. How did the writer probably feel when the teacher held up his maths homework? A. Happy but worried. B. Happy and calm. C. Surprised and worried. D. Surprised but happy. 47. What does the writer mainly want to tell us? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. A good study plan should include breaks. C. The power to change lies in our own hands. D. Small successes can bring about big changes. D Isaac Newton was a quiet boy. Having lost his father before he was born, he grew up with his grandmother. At 18, soon after he finished schooling, Newton would spend his time making small tools. His head teacher saw the genius in him and asked his mother to send him to the university. Newton set out for Cambridge in June, 1661. Newton was always trying to understand and explain a lot of things in nature. To test a question about colors, he would stare at the sun with one eye until all the colors changed. As a result, he had to stay in the dark for some time before his eye returned to normal. Newton was the first to show us that white light is made up of colors mixed together. He was also the first person to understand the rainbow and explain how it forms. A story goes like this: One day, an apple fell on Newton’s head, and it was then that Newton realized that the apple fell towards Earth and didn’t go anywhere else. He thought to himself, “How did this happen?” After doing some experiments, he later knew all objects always fall towards Earth’s centre because Earth attracts them. He realized that every object in the universe attracts every other object towards it. Then Newton discovered the law of universal gravitation. Newton was an English physicist, mathematician and astronomer. Because of the significant work Newton has done, he is widely considered as one of the greatest scientists of all time. 48. What can we learn about Newton from Paragraph 1? A. He made some small tools. B. He never studied in a university C. He didn’t like doing farm work. D. He lost his mother at a young age 49. Which words can best describe Newton when he was testing a question about colors? A. careful and lucky. B. skillful and smart C. relaxed and excited. D. hardworking and patient. 50. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us? A. When an apple fell on Newton’s head. B. How one object attracts another object. C. Why Newton was famous among people. D. How Newton made the important discovery. 51. What is the text structure of the passage? A. Life experience — achievements — comment B. Opinion — Examples — Explanation C. Problem — Process — Solution D. Comparison — Analysis — Conclusion 52. What can you learn from Newton’s experiences? A. Time waits for no man. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Roses given, fragrance in hand. D. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. 五、任务型阅读。 阅读下面短文，从选项中选择合适的句子填入文中空缺处，使短文内容完整、正确。 Change is a part of life, and it can happen in many ways. ____53____ But how do changes happen?
