They were police officers who knew that there was a pirate ship in the bay. I told them my story. Later I went back to the inn with one of the officers. Everything was broken, and the captain’s money and some silver from the inn were missing. “They took the money,” said the officer. “But what did they really want?” “I think they wanted these papers in my pocket,” I answered. “I want to take them to Dr. Livesey.” “Good idea,” he answered. “Dr. Livesey is a judge. I will take you to him now, because I need to tell him what happened.” So I mounted the horse behind one of the officers and we rode to Dr. Livesey’s house. Dr. Livesey was not at home. He was dining with Squire Trelawney, so we rode on to the hall,where the squire lived. The two men were sitting in a great library next to a bright fire. The officer told the story. The two men listened with surprise and interest. The officer then left. I gave the papers to the doctor and they asked me to stay and eat something after my adventures. “Have you heard of Flint?” Dr. Livesey asked the squire. “Yes, I have!” the squire replied. “He was one of the most dangerous pirates that ever sailed on the sea. He only cared about money and everyone was afraid of him. No one knows where he hid his treasure.” “Maybe these papers give an answer,” said the doctor. And we opened the captain’s papers. Inside there was a detailed map. It showed an island, about nine miles long and five across. It had two good natural harbours and a hill in the centre, marked Spy-glass Hill. There were three crosses in red, two in the northern part and one in the south-west. Beside the last cross were the words: Most of the treasure here. ——文章节选自《金银岛》(Treasure Island) 1．What did the pirates really want? A．The captain’s money. B．Silver from the inn.

B A river can look like a picture to one person and a page of instructions to another. Mark Twain knew both ways of seeing it. Before becoming a famous writer, he worked as a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi. That work gave him more than a background for his stories: it changed what he noticed. A pilot could not simply keep a boat in the middle of the wide river. The safe route changed as the water rose or fell. Trees, riverbanks and small marks on the water all carried information. A pilot had to remember them and understand what they meant, sometimes in darkness. A beautiful line of moving water might be a warning about something hidden below it. In Life on the Mississippi, Twain describes the price of learning this skill. He remembers a wonderful sunset from his early days on the river. Later, the same kinds of sights made him think about weather, shallow water and danger. He had gained useful knowledge, but the easy pleasure of looking had become harder to find. The river itself had not stopped being beautiful. His purpose for looking at it had changed. More than a century later, writer David Carkeet travelled beside the Mississippi for Smithsonian magazine. In a museum, he tried to guide a boat on a screen showing the river. He crashed into a bridge. He had been looking at another boat that reminded him of an unpleasant meal. Even with modern equipment and no real passengers at risk, his attention had wandered at the wrong moment. Put these two experiences together and the river becomes more than scenery. Twain shows how work trains a person’s eye; Carkeet’s mistake shows how easily attention can slip. When a character in a story notices one small thing and misses another, readers can ask what that choice reveals. A writer’s earlier job may help explain such details, but it cannot explain every thought on every page. We still have to read the words in front of us. 注：scenery 风景; riverbank 河岸。 1．What is the main function of the opening sentence? A．To introduce two ways of seeing the same river. B．To show that Twain learned to paint before writing. C．To compare the lengths of two different rivers. D．To explain why instructions are harder to read than stories. 2．Which statement best explains the change described in paragraph 3? A．Twain stopped liking rivers because he became a writer. B．The river became less attractive after its safe route changed. C．Twain’s trained eye looked for risks where he once saw beauty. D．The sunset was too bright for Twain to notice the riverbanks. 3．What does Carkeet’s museum experience add to the passage? A．Proof that modern boats are less safe than old riverboats. B．A modern example of why a pilot must keep paying attention. C．A reason to prefer museums to journeys along a real river. D．Evidence that eating a bad meal always affects memory. 4．What advice can readers take from the final paragraph? A．Use a writer’s life to replace reading the story. B．Accept every character’s opinion as the writer’s own. C．Ignore a writer’s work experience when reading fiction. D．Use life experience as a clue and check it against the text. 5．Which description best matches the passage? A．A set of safety rules written for riverboat passengers. B．An article linking a writer’s experience with ways of reading. C．A personal diary listing each stop on a holiday journey. D．A review comparing two films about the Mississippi. C I wanted to go and look at a place in the middle of the island that I had found when I was exploring. So we started and soon got to it, because the island was only three miles long and a quarter of a mile wide. This place was a hill about forty feet high. We had a hard time getting to the top. The sides were so steep (陡峭的) and the trees were so thick. We walked and climbed around all over it, and found a good big hole in the rock. It was a good place to play our game. The hole was as big as two or three rooms, and Jim could stand up straight in it. It was cool there. Jim wanted to put our things there, but I said we didn’t want to be climbing up and down there all the time. Jim said if we had the boat hidden in a good place and put all the things in the hole, we could rush there when anybody came to the island. They would never find us without dogs. Besides, he said that little birds had said it was going to rain. We didn’t want the things to get wet. ________ Then we found a place close by to hide the boat in, among the thick willows (柳树). We took some fish off the lines and set them again, and began to get ready for dinner. There was a good place to build a fire in the hole. So we built a fire and cooked dinner. We spread the blankets inside, and ate our dinner. We put all the other things at the back of the hole. Pretty soon it darkened and began to thunder. Directly, it began to rain, and I never saw the wind blow so heavily. It was one of these regular summer storms. It would get so dark that it looked all blue-black outside. The rain poured so heavily that the trees looked unclear. “Jim, this is nice,” I said. “I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but here. Pass me another piece of fish and some hot bread.” (Excerpt from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn) 1．Where did they put the boat? A．In the hole. B．In the trees. C．On the river. D．On the hill. 2．Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 4? A．So we decided to sleep outside the hole that night. B．So we walked down the hill to find the little birds. C．So we planned to leave the hill and never came back. D．So we went back and got the boat, and pulled all the things up there. 3．How did “I” feel when the storm came? A．“I” was worried about the boat. B．“I” was afraid and wanted to leave. C．“I” felt safe and even enjoyed the moment. D．“I” thought the storm was terrible and hoped it would end soon. 4．Which of the following is the correct order of the story? a. They found a place to hide the boat in.          b. They took some fish off the lines. c. Jim could stand up straight in the hole.          d. They began to get ready for their dinner. e. They walked and climbed around all over the hill. A．e-b-d-a-c B．c-a-b-e-d C．e-c-a-b-d D．b-a-d-c-e 三、阅读还原 根据短文内容，从短文后的A～F选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文。 In her speech to Harvard students in 2008, J. K. Rowling, the author of Harry Potter books, looked back at her past. “Seven years after my graduation day, I had failed in a big way,” she said. 1 At that time, she was trying hard to write the first Harry Potter book. The idea for Harry Potter came to Rowling during a train ride in 1990. Shortly after, in December that year, her mother died. 2 In 1993, her first marriage ended after only a short time. She had no job and had to raise her daughter alone with very little money. Looking back at this difficult period, Rowling said, “That period of my life was a dark one and I had no idea that there was going to be a kind of fairytale ending.” 3 The series made her one of the richest and most successful authors in the world. Where does Rowling think this amazing success came from? 4 As she explained, “Failure meant I stopped acting like I was something different and began to put all my energy into finishing the only work that really mattered to me. I was set free.” The Harry Potter series was completed with its final book in 2007. The books became a successful film series, and a Harry Potter theme park opened in the United States in 2010. 5 Her life has also improved personally—she has remarried and now has three children. A．This surprised many fans. B．The next few years were very hard. C．She believes it came from her early failures. D．She called herself “the biggest failure I knew.” E．Today, Rowling continues to write books for both children and adults. F．But the Harry Potter books later became very successful around the world. 四、任务型阅读 Read the passage and answer the questions below. When my grandmother passed away, she left me a small wooden box. Inside the box was a beautiful silver necklace with a heart-shaped pendant. My mother told me that the necklace had been in our family for over a hundred years. “This necklace was worn by your great-great-grandmother on her wedding day,” my mother explained. “It has been passed down from mother to daughter through five generations. Each woman who wore it added her own story to its history.” My grandmother’s story was the most touching. She grew up in a small village during the war. Her family was very poor. When she was sixteen, her father fell seriously ill and needed an operation. There was no money for the surgery. My grandmother sold her most precious possession—a gold bracelet that her mother had given her—to pay for the operation. But she refused to sell the necklace. “This necklace represents our family’s love and history,” she said. “No matter how difficult things get, some things are too precious to sell.” When I held the necklace in my hands, I felt a deep connection to all the women in my family. I imagined them wearing this necklace at their weddings, holding their babies, and passing it down with love and hope. I felt their strength and their love flowing through me. Now, the necklace sits on a small shelf in my room. Sometimes I take it out and hold it in my hands. It reminds me that love is the one thing that never dies. It passes through time and space, connecting us to those who came before us and those who will come after. I will never sell this necklace. Instead, I will pass it down to my own daughter one day. I will tell her the stories of the strong women who wore it before her. And I will tell her: “This necklace is not made of silver—it is made of love. That is why it will never lose its shine.” 1．Did the necklace belong to the author’s great-great-grandmother? (一般疑问句) 2．What did the grandmother refuse to sell during the war when she needed money? (what提问) 3．When did the author’s grandmother sell her gold bracelet? (when提问) 4．Where does the author keep the necklace now? (where提问) 5．Why did the grandmother refuse to sell the necklace? (why提问) 五、语法填空 阅读短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空 O. Henry is famous for his short stories with surprise endings. His works often 1 (deal) with the lives of ordinary people.

A．The reason why the pirates stole the treasure. B．The doctor and the squire’s discussion. C．The secret on the captain’s papers. D．My trust in Dr. Livesey. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．B 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文节选自《金银岛》，讲述了“我”从藏身处出来，与警官回旅馆发现失窃，后将船长的文件交给医生，并发现其中藏宝图的故事。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据第四段“I think they wanted these papers in my pocket”可知，海盗真正想要的是船长文件。 2．词句猜测题。划线词出现在第八段“The two men were sitting in a great library”，结合前文“Dr. Livesey was not at home. He was dining with Squire Trelawney…”可知，“The two men”指Dr. Livesey和Squire Trelawney。 3．细节理解题。正确顺序为：④“我”从藏身处出来→⑤和警官回旅馆→②骑马去医生家→①医生和乡绅在图书馆→③和医生打开船长文件。 4．细节理解题。根据最后一段“There were three crosses in red, two in the northern part and one in the south-west. Beside the last cross were the words: Most of the treasure here.”可知，大部分宝藏藏在西南部，而非北部，因此D项错误。 5．主旨大意题。全文围绕“我”将船长文件交给医生，并从中发现藏宝图这一核心事件展开，因此主要讲的是船长文件中的秘密。 B A river can look like a picture to one person and a page of instructions to another. Mark Twain knew both ways of seeing it. Before becoming a famous writer, he worked as a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi. That work gave him more than a background for his stories: it changed what he noticed. A pilot could not simply keep a boat in the middle of the wide river. The safe route changed as the water rose or fell. Trees, riverbanks and small marks on the water all carried information.

Even with modern equipment and no real passengers at risk, his attention had wandered at the wrong moment. Put these two experiences together and the river becomes more than scenery.

Later, the same kinds of sights made him think about weather, shallow water and danger”，说明受过行船训练的马克·吐温，从曾经只看见美景转变为在同类景象中排查风险。 3．第4段提到“Even with modern equipment and no real passengers at risk, his attention had wandered at the wrong moment”，用现代场景下的失误案例，补充佐证行船者时刻保持注意力的必要性。 4．结尾段提到“A writer’s earlier job may help explain such details, but it cannot explain every thought on every page. We still have to read the words in front of us”，点明阅读时可将人生经历作为线索，同时要对照文本本身验证内容。 5．全文以马克·吐温的密西西比河领航经历为切入点，最终落脚到文学阅读的思路方法，是串联作者经历与阅读方式的论述类文章。 C I wanted to go and look at a place in the middle of the island that I had found when I was exploring. So we started and soon got to it, because the island was only three miles long and a quarter of a mile wide. This place was a hill about forty feet high. We had a hard time getting to the top. The sides were so steep (陡峭的) and the trees were so thick. We walked and climbed around all over it, and found a good big hole in the rock. It was a good place to play our game. The hole was as big as two or three rooms, and Jim could stand up straight in it. It was cool there. Jim wanted to put our things there, but I said we didn’t want to be climbing up and down there all the time. Jim said if we had the boat hidden in a good place and put all the things in the hole, we could rush there when anybody came to the island. They would never find us without dogs. Besides, he said that little birds had said it was going to rain. We didn’t want the things to get wet. ________ Then we found a place close by to hide the boat in, among the thick willows (柳树). We took some fish off the lines and set them again, and began to get ready for dinner. There was a good place to build a fire in the hole. So we built a fire and cooked dinner. We spread the blankets inside, and ate our dinner. We put all the other things at the back of the hole. Pretty soon it darkened and began to thunder. Directly, it began to rain, and I never saw the wind blow so heavily. It was one of these regular summer storms. It would get so dark that it looked all blue-black outside. The rain poured so heavily that the trees looked unclear. “Jim, this is nice,” I said. “I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but here. Pass me another piece of fish and some hot bread.” (Excerpt from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn) 1．Where did they put the boat? A．In the hole. B．In the trees. C．On the river. D．On the hill. 2．Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 4? A．So we decided to sleep outside the hole that night. B．So we walked down the hill to find the little birds. C．So we planned to leave the hill and never came back. D．So we went back and got the boat, and pulled all the things up there. 3．How did “I” feel when the storm came? A．“I” was worried about the boat. B．“I” was afraid and wanted to leave. C．“I” felt safe and even enjoyed the moment. D．“I” thought the storm was terrible and hoped it would end soon. 4．Which of the following is the correct order of the story? a. They found a place to hide the boat in.          b. They took some fish off the lines. c. Jim could stand up straight in the hole.          d. They began to get ready for their dinner. e. They walked and climbed around all over the hill. A．e-b-d-a-c B．c-a-b-e-d C．e-c-a-b-d D．b-a-d-c-e 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．C 【导语】本文节选自《哈克贝利・费恩历险记》，讲述了“我”和Jim在小岛的山上找到一处岩洞，把物品安置在这里，遇上暴风雨时在岩洞里安心躲避的故事。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据文中第四段“Then we found a place close by to hide the boat in, among the thick willows.”可知，他们把船藏在茂密的柳树之中，也就是树丛里。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段“Jim said if we had the boat hidden in a good place and put all the things in the hole...We didn’t want the things to get wet.”可知，吉姆提议把船藏好、把所有东西放进洞里，避免东西被雨淋湿。D选项“So we went back and got the boat, and pulled all the things up there.”承接上文吉姆的提议，引出后文找地方藏船的内容。 3．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Jim, this is nice,”“I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but here. Pass me another piece of fish and some hot bread.”可知，暴风雨来临时，“我”觉得待在这里很好，不想去别的地方，能够感受到“我”内心安稳，享受当下。 4．细节理解题。文章顺序：首先，第二段提到“We walked and climbed around all over it”（e）；接着，第二段提到“The hole was as big as two or three rooms, and Jim could stand up straight in it.”（c）；然后，第四段提到“Then we found a place close by to hide the boat in”（a）；之后，第四段提到“We took some fish off the lines and set them again”（b）；最后，第四段提到“and began to get ready for dinner.”（d）。因此正确顺序为e-c-a-b-d，对应选项C。 三、阅读还原 根据短文内容，从短文后的A～F选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文。 In her speech to Harvard students in 2008, J. K. Rowling, the author of Harry Potter books, looked back at her past. “Seven years after my graduation day, I had failed in a big way,” she said. 1 At that time, she was trying hard to write the first Harry Potter book. The idea for Harry Potter came to Rowling during a train ride in 1990. Shortly after, in December that year, her mother died. 2 In 1993, her first marriage ended after only a short time. She had no job and had to raise her daughter alone with very little money. Looking back at this difficult period, Rowling said, “That period of my life was a dark one and I had no idea that there was going to be a kind of fairytale ending.” 3 The series made her one of the richest and most successful authors in the world. Where does Rowling think this amazing success came from? 4 As she explained, “Failure meant I stopped acting like I was something different and began to put all my energy into finishing the only work that really mattered to me. I was set free.” The Harry Potter series was completed with its final book in 2007. The books became a successful film series, and a Harry Potter theme park opened in the United States in 2010. 5 Her life has also improved personally—she has remarried and now has three children. A．This surprised many fans. B．The next few years were very hard. C．She believes it came from her early failures. D．She called herself “the biggest failure I knew.” E．Today, Rowling continues to write books for both children and adults. F．But the Harry Potter books later became very successful around the world. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．F 4．C 5．E 【导语】本文介绍了《哈利波特》的作者的个人经历、以及她是如何创作出这一系列书籍的。 【详解】 1．根据“ ‘Seven years after my graduation day, I had failed in a big way,’ she said.”可知，罗琳在哈佛演讲中回顾自己的失败经历，故空处会进一步说明她的自我评价选项D“她称自己‘我所知道的最大的失败’。”与之相符。故选D。 2．根据“Shortly after, in December that year, her mother died.”以及“In 1993, her first marriage ended after only a short time.”可知，描述了她的母亲去世，接着婚姻破裂等困境，故空处与生活的艰难相关。选项B“接下来的几年非常困难。”与之相符。故选B。 3．根据“Rowling said, ‘That period of my life was a dark one and I had no idea that there was going to be a kind of fairytale ending.’ ”以及“The series made her one of the richest and most successful authors in the world.”可知，罗琳对“童话式结局”毫无预料，并提到了《哈利·波特》系列对她的影响力的提升，故空处与《哈利·波特》系列的成功相关。选项F“但是《哈利·波特》后来在世界各地变得非常成功。”与之相符。故选F。 4．根据“Where does Rowling think this amazing success came from?”可知，询问“成功从何而来”，故空处会回答成功的来源。选项C“她认为这来自她的早期失败。”与之相符。故选C。 5．根据“The books became a successful film series, and a Harry Potter theme park opened in the United States in 2010.”以及“Her life has also improved personally—she has remarried and now has three children.”可知，前文提到了《哈利·波特》系列完结及衍生作品的成功，后文提到了她个人生活的改善。故空处会陈述她继续创作。选项E“今天，罗琳继续为儿童和成人写书。”与之相符。故选E。 四、任务型阅读 Read the passage and answer the questions below. When my grandmother passed away, she left me a small wooden box. Inside the box was a beautiful silver necklace with a heart-shaped pendant. My mother told me that the necklace had been in our family for over a hundred years. “This necklace was worn by your great-great-grandmother on her wedding day,” my mother explained. “It has been passed down from mother to daughter through five generations. Each woman who wore it added her own story to its history.” My grandmother’s story was the most touching. She grew up in a small village during the war. Her family was very poor. When she was sixteen, her father fell seriously ill and needed an operation. There was no money for the surgery. My grandmother sold her most precious possession—a gold bracelet that her mother had given her—to pay for the operation. But she refused to sell the necklace. “This necklace represents our family’s love and history,” she said. “No matter how difficult things get, some things are too precious to sell.” When I held the necklace in my hands, I felt a deep connection to all the women in my family. I imagined them wearing this necklace at their weddings, holding their babies, and passing it down with love and hope. I felt their strength and their love flowing through me. Now, the necklace sits on a small shelf in my room. Sometimes I take it out and hold it in my hands. It reminds me that love is the one thing that never dies. It passes through time and space, connecting us to those who came before us and those who will come after. I will never sell this necklace. Instead, I will pass it down to my own daughter one day. I will tell her the stories of the strong women who wore it before her. And I will tell her: “This necklace is not made of silver—it is made of love. That is why it will never lose its shine.” 1．Did the necklace belong to the author’s great-great-grandmother? (一般疑问句) 2．What did the grandmother refuse to sell during the war when she needed money? (what提问) 3．When did the author’s grandmother sell her gold bracelet? (when提问) 4．Where does the author keep the necklace now? (where提问) 5．Why did the grandmother refuse to sell the necklace? (why提问) 【答案】1．Yes, it did. 2．She refused to sell the necklace. 3．When she was sixteen and her father fell seriously ill. 4．On a small shelf in her room. 5．Because she believed the necklace represented her family’s love and history, and some things are too precious to sell. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者继承了祖母留下的一条银项链，介绍了项链背后的家族历史以及祖母在战争时期守护项链的感人故事，表达了家族之爱代代相传的主题。 【详解】 1．根据文章第2段“This necklace was worn by your great-great-grandmother on her wedding day”可推知项链确实属于作者的曾曾祖母。 2．根据文章第3段“But she refused to sell the necklace.”可推知祖母拒绝卖掉的是项链。 3．根据文章第3段“When she was sixteen... My grandmother sold her most precious possession—a gold bracelet”可推知卖金手镯的时间是十六岁时。 4．根据文章第5段“Now, the necklace sits on a small shelf in my room.”可推知作者现在把项链放在房间的小架子上。 5．根据文章第3段“This necklace represents our family's love and history”可推知祖母拒绝出售是因为项链代表了家族的爱与历史。 五、语法填空 阅读短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空 O.
