江苏考情(2026)
命题规律
细节理解题
(事实定位·因果目的·
正误辨析)
12题 / 26.1%
覆盖8篇、共12题。
盐城2篇(7、11、12题);淮安2篇(15—17、20题);南通(23题);宿迁(27题);扬州(36、37题);连云港(44题)。
考查点:事实定位(谁、在哪、做了什么);因果与目的(What’s Mao’s purpose of…?);正误辨析(Which of the following is true about…?)。
正确项多为同义转述(第23题 made me come→asked me to do so;第37题 alphabetical order→order of the letters);干扰项以“张冠李戴”(第20题 on the bed/on the wheelchair)与“答非所问”(第7题 improve Yin’s life/make short videos)为主。
① 题位前移、题文同序。细节题几乎全部落在第1—2题位,答案段落与题序基本对应,可按“读题—定位—比对”推进。
② 由“找原句”转向“读懂再判断”。靠单词照抄即可作答的题明显减少,正确项多需同义转述或适度概括。
③ 干扰项集中于两类手法:一是“原文有词、对象错位”(第20题四个地点均与原文细节相关,唯有 under a big bush 对应钥匙位置);二是“答非所问”(第7题三个干扰项均与文中信息相关,却均非捐款目的)。
④ 同一篇内的细节题多按“人物—事件—原因”分点设题,单题只考一个信息点,合起来构成对基本事实的网格化覆盖。
⑤ 备考指向:固化“题干定位—区间比对—同义还原”三步;凡选项与原文用词高度重合,须回查其主语与逻辑关系。
推理判断题
(人物形象·情感态度·
情节结局)
10题 / 21.7%
覆盖6篇、共10题。
镇江(3题);无锡(5题);宿迁(29、30题);苏州(31—33题);扬州(35、38题);连云港(41题)。
三个落点:人物形象(What were Amy and Neil like?)、情感态度(probably felt/think of their journey)、结局推断(What would Johannes do in the end?)。
人物形象题选项固定为“形容词+and+形容词”(Helpful and honest);情感题选项为四个单形容词(free/proud/curious/nervous),同属一个语义场。
① 全部在句群或段落层面整合信息,设问以 probably/infer/would 等情态与推测词明确标注推断属性。
② 人物形象题要求“以事证品”:正确项须覆盖全文多个行为(第3题“乐于助人”对应答应照看小猪,“诚实”对应主动坦白),只在某一段成立的选项即为错项。
③ 情感态度题依动作、语言与环境描写反推(第30题由老师致谢、全场掌声推出 proud),选项中常混入“文中无据却合乎常理”的干扰。
④ 结局推断题以人物对话与内心独白为据(“I knew I would go.”→continue the journey),考查行为逻辑的把握。
⑤ 备考指向:建立“人物—事件—品质”对应表;坚持“无文本证据不选”,排除凭生活经验想当然的选项。
主旨大意题
(标题归纳·主题启示·
段落大意)
9题 / 19.6%
覆盖8篇、共9题。
标题2题:无锡6(The Untouchable)、盐城10(A Generous Act, a Big Difference);主题启示5题:盐城14、淮安18、淮安22、苏州34、连云港42;段落与观点2题:连云港45、46。
设问:best title/mainly tell us/what can we learn/theme/last paragraph mainly about;正确项多为凝练的名词短语或格言式短句。
干扰项在“局部意象”(The LED Screen)与“泛化拔高”(Common Home on the Earth)之间摆动。
① 12篇中有9篇设宏观概括题(标题、主题、启示、段意或写作意图),且全部置于末题压轴,是全文区分度最高的题位。
② 标题题遵循“涵盖全文—指向主体—语言凝练”三重标准;干扰项或以偏概全(A Lucky Boy),或只取局部意象。
③ 启示类高频借用英语谚语与格言(A friend in need is a friend indeed./Practice makes perfect.),要求由具体故事抽象出普遍道理;选项间常构成“近义干扰”,须回到故事内核比对。
④ 段落概括题(第46题)考查“段内分层—提炼共同指向”,答案须统摄全段而非某一句。
⑤ 主题分布呼应“立德树人”:以友善互助、成长励志为主,兼及家国情怀与文化自信(井冈山红色文化、徐悲鸿、殷玉珍治沙),价值观导向清晰。
⑥ 备考指向:以“写谁—写什么—想表达什么”三问检验标题;谚语类选项须“义合”更要“文合”。
篇章结构题
(事件排序)
6题 / 13.0%
6篇各设1题:镇江2、盐城8、淮安21、南通25、宿迁28、连云港43。
设问统一为 Which of the following is the correct order of…? 事件以 a—e 列于题干,选项为四个字母序列(如 A.a-d-c-b)。
事件呈三种类型:动作链(答应照看→邻居离家→卡车惊猪→花园被毁);时间轴(1912年习画→1923年参展→1927年归国执教→1933年办展);人生阶段(六岁读经→教画养家→赴法求学→北大任教)。
① 排序题是江苏记叙文的高频题型:12篇中设6题(50%),每篇仅1题,多置于倒数第1—2题。
② 解题支点是显性时间词与逻辑信号(In 1912/After/Beginning in 1919/Then/Finally)及动作先后,属“结构化速读”,而非逐句精读。
③ 选项多按“首事件×末事件”交叉组合,确定首、末两环即可排除三项;命题刻意降低运算量,突出对叙事脉络的把握。
④ 传记类可按“童年—求学—事业—成就”切分,叙事类可按“起因—经过—转折—结果”切分,两种框架与选项结构高度吻合。
⑤ 备考指向:训练“圈时间词、划动词链、定首尾”三步法,答题时先排首末、再验中间。
词义猜测题
(代词指代·
语境释义)
3题 / 6.5%
3题:无锡4(it→the body weight)、盐城13(wobbled→moved from side to side)、淮安19(bad-tempered→easy to get angry)。
恰好覆盖代词回指、动词释义、形容词释义三种类型;选项均为四个短语释义,词性统一、语义场一致。
① 题量小而稳定(每卷0—1题,占6.5%),但类型完整,代词回指、动词释义、形容词释义三类均有覆盖。
② 所考词一律不加中文注释,而文中其他影响理解的生词(paralysed、spinal cord injury、bison、chaos 等)均随文注出——“注释词”与“考点词”严格分离,保证所考词必可推测。
③ 线索设计遵循三条路径:同义复现(wobbled 与后文 wobbled no longer 呼应)、反义对照(bad-tempered 与 shouted、threw things 对照)、同句回指(it 承接前文 the weight of my body)。
④ 备考指向:代词用“回指三查”(查前句主宾、查并列结构、查单复一致);实词用“三证法”(定义、复现、举例),忌脱离语境选“最常见义”。
句意理解与
写作意图题
(言外之意·
篇章功能)
6题 / 13.0%
句意理解3题:镇江1(Mrs Brown 的话是什么意思)、南通24(画线句表明公众在等待什么)、连云港40(“We haven’t eaten in two days.”的含义)。
写作意图3题:盐城9(为何引网友的话)、南通26(文章想告诉读者什么)、连云港39(为何提大萧条)。
设问:What did…mean?/Why does the writer mention…?/What does the article want to tell the readers?
① 两类题共同指向“言外之意”:句意题考“话里有话”(委婉托付、暗示困境),意图题考“材为何用”(引语佐证、背景铺垫)。
② 句意题的正确答案须还原“谁说、对谁说、为何说”(第40题由欠租、断炊与孩子哭泣推出“需要接济”);字面直译项(She was proud of her garden/She invited him for dinner)为典型错项。
③ 意图题的答案落在篇章功能上:引网友评论是为“替善意致谢”(第9题),交代大萧条是为“凸显租金之重”(第39题)。
④ 干扰项“两手下注”:一手字面化(照抄句中词),一手过度化(拔高到文章未涉及的层面)。
⑤ 备考指向:句意题做“语境还原”,意图题做“删除检验”——删去该句或该段,论证是否仍成立。
【说明:本表以2026年江苏省中考英语阅读理解(记叙文)(见本文档的第二部分“一年真题分类”)真题12篇、46道小题为样本,覆盖镇江、无锡、盐城(2篇)、淮安(2篇)、南通、宿迁、苏州、扬州、连云港(2篇)9个地市;篇目词数约210—470词,平均约340词,每篇3—4题(3题2篇、4题10篇)。其中4篇改编或节选自英文文学作品,3篇为中国题材人物通讯或传记,6篇配有与情节相关的插图。】

(2026·江苏镇江)
Amy and I just finished playing basketball in the park and on our way back, we met our neighbour Mrs Brown. She said she would go to hospital the next day and asked us if we’d like to help watch her piggies for several hours. Though we had never done that before, we decided to have a try.
When we arrived at Mrs Brown’s house the next morning, we were deeply attracted by the cute piggies. “They are the most lovely sweethearts I can imagine!” I said.
“Aren’t they?” Mrs Brown agreed. “Neil, I put up this small gate to keep my freshly planted garden safe while they two have a sleep outside. If you and Amy sit here and touch them softly, they’ll probably sleep the whole time I’m gone.” Then she added, “Their food is in the fridge, but they shouldn’t be hungry before I get back at noon.” With these words, Mrs Brown left.
At first, the piggies lay in their blankets. We touched them gently and they fell asleep fast. They looked like peaceful sleeping angels. Things seemed to go smoothly. Suddenly, a truck drove by, making a loud noise. Our sleeping angels jumped up, spun around in circles, and started racing all over the place! They knocked over the small gate and began digging in the garden like it was their playground. We tried to get them out of there, but it didn’t work.
Amy suggested that food might get their attention. I rushed to the fridge for the food. Luckily, even though it wasn’t lunchtime yet, they quickly ate up their food, lay down in their blankets and fell back to sleep.
The whole garden was in a mess. Amy and I quietly put the small gate back and did our best to make it look as good as before. Later, we told everything to Mrs Brown. Even though it meant some replanting work, she thought the whole thing was funny.

1.根据文章第3段“If you and Amy sit here and touch them softly, they’ll probably sleep the whole time I’m gone.”和“Their food is in the fridge, but they shouldn’t be hungry before I get back at noon.”可推知,Brown太太认为小猪会睡完整段时间,也不会提前感到饥饿,照看它们不需要费太多力气,并不困难。
2.根据文章第1段“Though we had never done that before, we decided to have a try.”可知两人最先同意帮忙照看小猪;根据第3段“With these words, Mrs Brown left.”可知之后Brown太太动身去医院;根据第4段“Suddenly, a truck drove by, making a loud noise. Our sleeping angels jumped up”可知随后卡车的噪音吵醒了熟睡的小猪;根据第6段“The whole garden was in a mess.”可知最后小猪把花园弄得一团糟,事件正确顺序为d-a-c-b。
3.根据文章第1段“Though we had never done that before, we decided to have a try.”可知两人愿意为邻居提供帮助,是乐于助人的;根据第6段“Later, we told everything to Mrs Brown.”可知两人没有隐瞒花园被弄乱的事,主动告知全部实情,是诚实的。

(2026·江苏无锡)
“Please help me get through this!” I watched the big LED screen. There were five minutes left. I felt great pain in my back, which had been kneed by a player from the other team. I rolled from side to side, tears streaming down. It was a blow to my pride for I was always the man of the match, the best player on the field, popularly known as the “Untouchable”.
Soon doctors came. “Jared, can you hear…” Those were the last words I heard before I lost consciousness (知觉).
I opened my eyes slowly as silence filled the air. I tried my best to sit up but the weight of my body was like gravity and it pulled me down. I became aware that I had lost sense in my legs. I moved my fingers to feel them. They were still there! Could I be…? I shook my head.
“I’m your doctor, Wilson Ty. You are a strong man, Jared. How are you feeling?”
Feeling? I could not feel anything.
“My legs…” I said, then paused. Dr Wilson Ty began to talk about my condition. But only two words jumped out at me—paralysed (瘫痪的) forever. As I was trying to make sense of what he meant, my coach and a few of my teammates came in.
“Coach…help me!” The words came out of my mouth.
“It’s OK, Jared. Don’t lose heart.” My coach was trying to avoid saying more as he turned away, hiding the tears.
“Coach, I want to play soccer again, no matter what happens. I need you to help me,” I said as I held his arm tightly.
I struggled bravely in the next few months to be on my feet again. The hard knock had left me with a spinal cord injury (脊椎损伤). The “Untouchable” had become the “Vulnerable (脆弱的)”.
After almost a year in hospital, I finally felt my feet firmly on the ground as I made my way to the field. This would be my first game after fate (命运) almost turned my life upside down. Without doubt, it was the game that I won, I thought.
As I walked towards the field, the whole stadium was filled with “Hero! Hero!” together with “Welcome back, Untouchable Jared!” on the LED screen. They were shouting louder than they had ever done. My teammates handed the ball to me. The indescribable feeling came to me and this time, there were tears of joy.
4.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)?
A.The air. B.Silence. C.The body weight. D.Gravity.
5.When Jared thought Without doubt, it was the game that I won, he probably felt ________.
A.free B.proud C.curious D.nervous
6.What is the best title for this story?
A.The LED Screen B.A Lucky Boy
C.An Unforgettable Game D.The Untouchable
【答案】4.C 5.B 6.D
【解析】本文讲述了素有“Untouchable”之称的优秀足球运动员Jared在比赛中受伤致瘫,凭借顽强毅力坚持康复训练,最终重返赛场、重新获得大家认可的故事。
4.第三段提到:“I tried my best to sit up but the weight of my body was like gravity and it pulled me down.”,表明句中it指代前文提到的“the weight of my body(身体的重量)”,句子将身体重量比作重力,是身体的重量(the body weight)让受伤的Jared无法坐起、向下坠。
5.倒数第二段提到:“After almost a year in hospital, I finally felt my feet firmly on the ground as I made my way to the field. This would be my first game after fate (命运) almost turned my life upside down. Without doubt, it was the game that I won, I thought.”,表明Jared受伤瘫痪后经过近一年的艰苦康复,终于重返赛场,他认为自己战胜了命运的打击,赢了这场和人生的“比赛”,此时内心充满自豪。
6.根据全文内容,“Untouchable”是Jared最初的球员称号,结尾观众也高呼“Welcome back, Untouchable Jared!”,这个称号贯穿全文,既点明了Jared的身份,也体现了他坚韧不服输的精神,是全文的核心线索。

(2026·江苏盐城)Back in 1999, an American exchange teacher Ronald Sakolsky was deeply touched by Yin Yuzhen’s hard work on desert greening. So he raised 5,000 dollars to support her work in the Mu Us Desert.
The two lost contact after donation. But Yin never forgot his help. Today, that 5,000-dollar donation has finally grown into over 50,000 trees. The desert has turned into thick woods, where wild animals come back and sandstorms are well controlled.
Missing the kind foreign friend all the time, Yin made a public video and invited Sakolsky to see the forest for himself. The video spread quickly online. An online user wrote, “You give me a drop of water, I return a sea. You plant a single tree, I give back a spring.”
With people’s help, they talked through a video call within 48 hours. Learning his small kindness created such great changes, Sakolsky felt greatly surprised and excited.
Sakolsky has always loved Chinese culture and kept sharing what he learnt in China with his students after returning home. He gladly accepted Yin’s invitation and hoped to plant trees together in person.
This moving story attracts wide attention online. More international friends have joined the tree-planting activity to make the earth greener. The lasting friendship and joint (共同的) efforts fully show that all humans share one common home, and that kindness will always take root and grow strong.
7.What did Sakolsky donate the money for?
A.To improve Yin’s life. B.To help plant trees.
C.To make short videos. D.To protect wild animals.
8.What is the correct order of the events about Sakolsky?

②He gladly accepted Yin’s invitation.
③He talked with Yin through a video call.
④He shared Chinese culture with his students.
A.①②④③ B.①④③② C.②③①④ D.②④①③
9.Why does the writer mention the online user’s words in Paragraph 3?
A.To share his life experiences. B.To offer readers some tips.
C.To explain the growth of forests. D.To show our thanks for kindness.
10.What is the best title for the text?
A.Hard Work on the Desert B.Common Home on the Earth
C.A Generous Act, a Big Difference D.A Short Call, a Long Friendship
【答案】7.B 8.B 9.D 10.C
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了美国交换教师Ronald Sakolsky在1999年捐款5000美元支持殷玉珍在毛乌素沙漠种树治沙,多年后这笔捐款变成了5万多棵树,两人重新取得联系,这份善意和友谊延续并感染了更多人的感人故事。
7.第一段指出:“an American exchange teacher Ronald Sakolsky was deeply touched by Yin Yuzhen’s hard work on desert greening. So he raised 5,000 dollars to support her work in the Mu Us Desert.”这说明Sakolsky捐款是为了支持殷玉珍在沙漠种树治沙的工作,即帮助种树。
8.梳理全文事件顺序:第一段他给殷玉珍捐款,第五段提到他回国后一直和学生分享中国文化,第四段二人通过视频通话取得联系,第五段他欣然接受了殷玉珍的邀请,顺序为①④③②。
9.第三段提到网友的评论:“You give me a drop of water, I return a sea. You plant a single tree, I give back a spring.” 这句话表达了殷玉珍对Sakolsky善举的感恩之情,也体现了善意得到回报的主题。作者引用这句话是为了展示对善意的感谢。
10.通读全文可知,Sakolsky一个小小的捐款善举(5000美元),最终带来了巨大的变化(5万多棵树、沙漠变森林、友谊延续、更多人加入种树活动)。C选项“A Generous Act, a Big Difference”(一个慷慨的举动,带来巨大的改变)最能概括文章主旨。

(2026·江苏盐城)Christopher Robin read the message which Pooh got from the floating bottle aloud.
“We must rescue (援救) him at once! Owl, could you rescue him on your back?”
“I don’t think so,” said Owl, after serious thought.
“Then would you fly to him at once and say that rescue is coming? And Pooh and I will think of a rescue and come as quick as ever we can. Owl, go on quick!” And, still thinking of something to say, Owl flew off.
“Now then, Pooh,” said Christopher Robin, “where’s your boat?”
“There!” said Pooh, pointing proudly to The Floating Bear.
It wasn’t what Christopher Robin expected, and the more he looked at it, the more he thought what a brave and clever bear Pooh was, and the more Christopher Robin thought this, the more Pooh looked modestly down his nose and tried to pretend (假装) he wasn’t.
“But it’s too small for two of us,” said Christopher Robin sadly.
“Three of us with Piglet.”
“That makes it smaller still. Oh, Pooh Bear, what shall we do?”
And then this Bear, Pooh Bear, Winnie-the-Pooh — in fact, Pooh himself — said something so clever that Christopher Robin could only look at him with mouth and eyes open wide, wondering if this was really the bear of very little brain whom he had known and loved so long.
“We might go in your umbrella,” said Pooh.
“?”
“We might go in your umbrella,” said Pooh.
“??”
“We might go in your umbrella,” said Pooh.
“!!!!!!”
For suddenly Christopher Robin saw that they might. He opened his umbrella and put it point downwards in the water. It floated but wobbled. Pooh got in. He was just beginning to say that it was all right now, when he found that it wasn’t, so after a short drink which he didn’t really want, he waded (蹚) back to Christopher Robin. Then they both got in together, and it wobbled no longer.
“I shall call this boat The Brain of Pooh,” said Christopher Robin, and The Brain of Pooh set sail at once in a south-westerly direction.
You can imagine Piglet’s joy when at last the ship came in sight of him.
— Adapted from Winnie the Pooh
11.What was the “message” in the first sentence?
A.A note for help. B.An invitation.
C.A letter of praise. D.A recommendation.
12.What made Robin look at Pooh in surprise?
A.Pooh’s little brain. B.Pooh’s pride in his boat.
C.Pooh’s wise advice. D.Pooh’s modest personality.
13.What does the underlined word “wobbled” probably mean in the passage?
A.Jumped up and down. B.Flew far away into air.
C.Went down into water. D.Moved from side to side.
14.What can we learn from the passage?
A.A friend in need is a friend indeed. B.The early bird catches the worm.
C.Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D.Don’t burn the candle at both ends.
【答案】11.A 12.C 13.D 14.A
【解析】本文讲述了小熊维尼和克里斯托弗・罗宾收到求救信息后,想出用雨伞当作小船前去营救朋友Piglet的故事。
11.根据文章第二段“We must rescue him at once!”可知消息的内容是必须立刻援救他,由此可知,这是一封求助信。
12.根据文章第十一段“said something so clever that Christopher Robin could only look at him with mouth and eyes open wide”可知罗宾惊讶地看着维尼,是因为维尼说出了非常聪明的建议。
13.根据文章倒数第三段“He opened his umbrella and put it point downwards in the water. It floated but wobbled.”可知雨伞浮在水面,但状态不稳,后文“Then they both got in together, and it wobbled no longer”指出两个人都上去之后就不再晃动,由此判断“wobbled”含义为“左右摇晃”。
14.通读全文,文章主要讲述了朋友们在遇到困难时互相营救的故事,体现了患难见真情的主题。

(2026·江苏淮安)Mao Haofu, born in 1989, comes from Jinggangshan, Jiangxi Province. The Jinggang Mountains are known as the “cradle (摇篮) of the Chinese revolution (革命)”. This area is a symbol of the Chinese people’s spirit of overcoming (克服) difficulties with hard work.
Mao Haofu’s grandfather spent his whole life passing on this spirit. Growing up in such a family, Mao saw the spirit as part of his life. At the age of 27, he gave up a well-paid job to continue his family’s work.
Back in Jinggangshan, he started to spread red culture, including the revolutionary history, great spirit and heroic stories. To make tourists have a deeper understanding of the history, Mao designed some special activities, such as walking down the Red Army Trail (红军小道), helping people feel more connected to the past. In addition, to make the history known to more people around the world, Mao makes short English videos about red culture, winning high praise from many people.
Mao’s work, however, goes far beyond that. He also makes short videos to sell local products like the famous sweet fruit honey pomelo. In order to introduce the fruit to more people, he often stays up late to make these videos patiently. With his help, the sweet fruit is sold all over the country. Mao also helps villagers manage hotels and teaches them how to serve tourists well. With Mao and the local people’s hard work, more and more tourists are attracted there and the local people’s lives improve a lot. Those small mountain villages turn into lively places.
Because of his efforts, Mao was honoured with the New Era Youth Pioneer (新时代青年先锋奖) of 2025. Those mountains are silent witnesses to what Mao has done. For him, the past and the future are of the same importance. He will keep on walking along the path, lighting up the way forward.
15.What’s Mao’s purpose of giving up a well-paid job?
A.To follow his family’s work. B.To make more money.
C.To look after his grandfather. D.To live in the mountains.
16.What did Mao do to help tourists understand the history more deeply?
A.He walked down the Red Army Trail.
B.He taught tourists how to speak English.
C.He designed special activities for tourists.
D.He made short videos about natural beauty.
17.Why does Mao win the New Era Youth Pioneer of 2025?
A.Because he helps local villagers manage hotels.
B.Because many tourists think highly of his efforts.
C.Because he helps sell local products through short videos.
D.Because he spreads red culture and helps his hometown develop.
18.What can we learn from Mao in the text?
A.We should be generous and modest.
B.We should be honest and brave.
C.We should be hard-working and devoted.
D.We should be polite and curious.
【答案】15.A 16.C 17.D 18.C
【解析】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了毛浩夫放弃高薪工作回到井冈山,传承红色文化并帮助家乡发展的故事,展现了他努力奋斗、奉献家乡的精神。
15.根据第二段“At the age of 27, he gave up a well-paid job to continue his family’s work.”可知,毛浩夫放弃高薪工作的目的是为了继续家族的工作。
16.根据第三段“To make tourists have a deeper understanding of the history, Mao designed some special activities...”可知,为了让游客更深入地了解历史,毛浩夫设计了特殊活动。
17.根据第三段“Back in Jinggangshan, he started to spread red culture, including the revolutionary history, great spirit and heroic stories.”和第四段“With Mao and the local people’s hard work, more and more tourists are attracted there and the local people’s lives improve a lot.”可推知,毛浩夫因传播红色文化并且助力家乡发展而获得新时代青年先锋奖。
18.根据第二段“At the age of 27, he gave up a well-paid job to continue his family’s work.”和第四段“He also makes short videos to sell local products like the famous sweet fruit honey pomelo...Mao also helps villagers manage hotels and teaches them how to serve tourists well.”可知,毛浩夫放弃优渥工作返乡传承事业、制作推广视频、长期为家乡发展付出诸多努力,体现出他勤奋且乐于奉献的品质,这是我们应向他学习的精神。

(2026·江苏淮安)
Colin’s illness made him stay in bed all day. He became very bad-tempered and always shouted at others. Sometimes he even threw things at his servants (仆人).
One day, his best friends Mary and Dickon came to visit him as usual. Colin’s face was white, looking sad and tired. Mary and Dickon thought it was time to tell Colin about the secret garden.
“Colin, we’re going to take you to a special place, but you must keep it secret!” said Mary.
Colin’s eyes grew bigger, curious about the secret place.
The next day, Mary and Dickon carried Colin downstairs and put him in the wheelchair. Mary looked around to make sure that no one was watching. Then she picked up the key under a big bush and opened the door of the secret garden. Dickon pushed the wheelchair quickly inside.
In the garden, Colin looked round and round. He listened to the sweet sound of the birds singing, and he felt the warm sun on his face. His pale skin started to become pink as he breathed in the good, fresh air. That day, the world changed for Colin.
From then on, Colin even followed Dickon to do some simple exercise in the wheelchair. He went to the secret garden with Mary and Dickon nearly every day.
Something amazing happened in the secret garden that spring and summer. At first, everything turned green. Then the green changed to colours — blue, purple and red. There were flowers everywhere. The garden was so beautiful that Colin wanted to walk freely in it, but he was afraid that he couldn’t.
“I believe that there is magic in the garden. The magic made all the plants grow strong. It can make you grow strong too,” Mary said to Colin.
Encouraged by Mary, Colin tried to pull himself up out of his wheelchair. And with Dickon’s help, he stood up straight and tall.
“Look at me,” he shouted. “Just look at me!”
Colin stayed standing. Suddenly, he stopped feeling afraid.
“I’m not the poor boy who is always ill,” he cried.

(2026·江苏南通)When I was a child, I often got into fights at school and my grades dropped sharply, so my mother made me come to her workplace after school — the space centre, where she worked in the cafeteria.
One day, an astronaut named Richard saw me struggling with Maths homework. He sat down and helped me. From then on, he and other astronauts often stopped by to help me with my studies. For my 15th birthday, I got a private tour of Mission Control. Standing in that room, filled with screens and maps, I felt a strange excitement. It was amazing!
On June 2nd, a spaceship launched for the Moon. I watched behind the glass of the VIP room.
Everything seemed to be going well. Then, suddenly, we heard a loud bang. A few seconds later, Richard’s voice came over the radio, “Mission Control, we’ve had a problem.” An oxygen tank had exploded, and the situation was very dangerous.
The astronauts, Richard, Fred, and Jack, moved into the lunar module (登月舱) to survive. Back on Earth, Mission Control worked day and night to bring them home safely. I stayed close to the radio at home, listening to every update. The whole world was watching and hoping.
I was so upset that I shared what I saw at the centre with my classmates. Terry, who used to fight with me, didn’t believe what I said. He even laughed at me, “Ramon, are you joking? Those buildings are fake! Don’t you know?” Angrily, I shouted at him, “Go to the centre with me, or you’ll regret.”
Then, Terry followed me to the space centre. He saw the control room, heard the tense voices, and finally understood it was all real. Both of us worried about the safety of the spaceship. Staring at the screens for a long time, we stood still.
Finally, on June 8th, the command module was brought down into the Pacific Ocean. The three astronauts were safe. Influenced by the spirit of science, bravery, and hard work, Terry and I stopped fighting and became good friends.
As for me, I studied harder than ever and became a pilot later. My friend Terry became a flight surgeon. We often joke about how we used to fight. But what I truly learn is that kindness, teamwork, and courage can turn even the biggest disaster into a complete victory.
23.The writer went to the space centre in the beginning because ________.
A.he wanted to see spaceship B.an astronaut invited him there
C.his mother asked him to do so D.Richard would help with his study
24.From the underlined sentence, we learn that the public were waiting for ________.

d. An accident happened to the spaceship.
e. Ramon told his classmates what he saw at the centre.
A.d-e-c-a-b B.d-e-b-a-c C.b-d-e-a-c D.b-d-a-c-e

“How were things going today, Zhao Min?” Mum asked me.
“Terrible. Wang Xinyue got the role of Mulan at last,” I said.
“Then what role did you get?” Mum added.
“None,” I whispered. I ran to my bedroom and started drawing in my sketchbook (素描簿). Drawing always makes me feel better.
The next day, Wang Xinyue was cheerful. But when the last bell rang, her mood changed. She was so nervous that she asked me to practice with her in the school hall. I wanted to say no. Then I realized I couldn’t leave yet. My parents had signed me up (报名) for the late bus, because I thought I would be in the play.
In the hall, Ms Wu, director of the play, handed out copies of the script to all the actors. I sat in the third row, wishing I were in my bedroom drawing. Ms Wu pulled a cardboard onto the middle of the stage. It was brown with small hills and old city walls. Then the play started. Wang Xinyue acted so well that everybody cheered for her. I had to say that she was really suitable for the role of Mulan.
“When will we get the real sets (布景)?” Wang Xinyue pointed to the cardboard.
“These are the real sets,” Ms Wu said. “We don’t have an art teacher this year. So that’s the best we could do.”
Wang Xinyue and I walked outside.
“You were great,” I said. “Everyone will love the play.”
“Thanks,” Wang Xinyue said. “But did you see the sets?”
I thought for a moment. “Maybe I can help.”
I spent that evening drawing. The next morning, I put my sketchbook into my backpack and ran to the bus.
Time seemed to go more slowly. Finally, the last bell rang. I rushed to Ms Wu’s office and showed her my ideas. After seeing my ideas, she talked to some other teachers. They liked my ideas too. Over the next weeks, a corner of the lunchroom was filled with cardboard and paints. And lots of students were working on the sets.
Finally, the opening night arrived. I sat next to Mum and Dad in the hall. When the curtain (幕布) rose, a piece of amazing cardboard appeared, on which was a huge land with rolling hills, well-trained soldiers and running horses. The play began. Wang Xinyue was a wonderful Mulan, and everyone clapped (鼓掌) when the play was over.
Then Ms Wu called me up to the stage. She said into the microphone, “I’d like to thank the students who painted the sets. And special thanks to Zhao Min, who designed them. Her effort and talent made tonight extra special.”
Everyone clapped. For me, I did get a part in the play after all. And it was just as good as being Mulan.
27.Who got the role of Mulan at last?
A.Zhao Min. B.Wang Xinyue. C.Ms Wu. D.Mum.
28.Which of the following is the correct order of the story?

b. Zhao Min rushed to Ms Wu’s office and expressed her ideas.
c. Wang Xinyue asked Zhao Min to practice with her in the school hall.
d. Zhao Min ran to her bedroom and started drawing in her sketchbook.
A.d — c — b — a B.d — b — c — a C.a — b — c — d D.a — c — b — d
29.What can we infer (推断) from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 14?
A.Zhao Min asked Mum to draw the sets with her.
B.Zhao Min hoped to go home as soon as possible.
C.Zhao Min wanted to tell her ideas to Ms Wu at once.
D.Zhao Min wished Wang Xinyue to practice with her after school.

27.根据文章第二段“Wang Xinyue got the role of Mulan at last,”可知,最后得到木兰角色的是王新月。
28.根据文章情节发展顺序:d.第4段:“I ran to my bedroom and started drawing...”;c.第5段:“She was so nervous that she asked me to practice with her...”;b.第14段:“I rushed to Ms Wu’s office and showed her my ideas.”;a.倒数第2段:“And special thanks to Zhao Min...”,首先是赵敏得知自己没有角色后跑回卧室在素描本上画画(d),之后第二天王新月请赵敏在学校礼堂陪她练习(c),随后赵敏带着自己的设计想法冲到吴老师办公室展示创意(b),最后演出结束后吴老师在舞台上特别感谢赵敏(a),故正确顺序为d—c—b—a。
29.根据划线句“Time seemed to go more slowly.”以及后文“Finally, the last bell rang. I rushed to Ms Wu’s office...”可知,赵敏此时非常急切地想要把自己的设计想法告诉老师,因为太期待和焦急,所以感觉时间过得很慢。
30.根据文章“Her effort and talent made tonight extra special.”以及最后“Everyone clapped. For me, I did get a part in the play after all.”可知,听到老师的表扬和大家的掌声,赵敏感到自己的努力被认可,内心应该是感到自豪和骄傲的。

I am a free dog called Johannes. I live in a large park by the sea. Freya is one of the three Bison (野牛) who live in an area with a fence (篱笆) within the park. Recently, I wanted to set them free and I almost succeeded.
Towards the end of the journey, Freya said to me, “We can’t go on that ship.”
“But it’s right down there,” I said. “We’ve already done the hard part. The goats (羊) have performed their duties, jumping and crying and making chaos (混乱) all around, so you wouldn’t be found when you hid among them. Everything’s ready.” I was worried, for the sky was growing brighter, and it would be more difficult for the goats to hide the Bison from humans as they went down the hill.
“No,” Freya said. “We’re not going. We thought we could, but this short journey has already proven we are not ready for more. We can’t make it.”
“But why let me—let all of us—go through all this trouble?” I asked.
“You needn’t be angry,” Freya said. “Or sad. Or even surprised. Look at us. We’re slow and old. We couldn’t go across the sea in strange boats. Seeing this is enough.”
She was still looking at the morning sea, which had grown brighter and whiter. She turned to me then. “Thank you, Johannes.” She turned to the goats. “We are so thankful. We have lived quiet lives. But you have freed our eyes and our minds. What you did today mattered a great deal. You gave us the sea. And we will not forget it.”
I tried to organize my thoughts. Was all this for nothing? And would we all have to go back to the park? I stood on the top of that small mountain, wondering what to do.
Then one of the goats said to me, “You could come with us. We will protect you, and when you reach the mainland, you can stay with us, or simply run free. There are a million free dogs like you. You can run with them and see places and things.”
I thought about this. I knew it was true. I knew I would go.
31.What did Freya think of their journey?
A.It was worth it. B.It was too long. C.It was boring. D.It was smooth.
32.What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A.The goats messed up everything. B.Their plan was very well-organized.
C.The Bison were at the foot of the hill. D.Their secret was discovered by humans.
33.What would Johannes do in the end?
A.Protect the goats. B.Join the Bison.
C.Continue the journey. D.Return to the park.
34.What is the theme of the story?
A.Some friends cannot be trusted. B.Humans can make friends with animals.
C.We can make choices for others. D.Everyone can find their place in the world.
【答案】31.A 32.B 33.C 34.D
【解析】本文讲述了一只名叫Johannes的流浪狗试图帮助公园里的野牛(Bison)逃离围栏、获得自由的故事。虽然野牛因为年老体弱最终选择放弃逃跑,但它们感激这次经历让它们看到了大海,心灵得到了解放。最后,山羊邀请Johannes加入它们前往大陆,Johannes决定继续追寻自由。
31.文章第七段中,Freya对Johannes说:“What you did today mattered a great deal. You gave us the sea. And we will not forget it.”(你今天做的非常重要。你让我们看到了大海。我们不会忘记。)这表明尽管它们没有成功逃脱,但这次旅程让它们在精神上获得了自由和满足,因此Freya认为这次旅程是值得的(It was worth it)。
32. 第三段中Johannes提到:“The goats have performed their duties, jumping and crying and making chaos... so you wouldn’t be found... Everything’s ready.”,说明山羊们按照计划制造混乱来掩护野牛,且Johannes认为“一切都准备好了”,这暗示他们的计划是经过精心组织和安排的(very well-organized)。A项错误,山羊并没有搞砸,而是履行了职责;C项错误,文中说他们正在下山(went down the hill),并未明确说已在山脚;D项错误,文中说天色变亮会增加难度,但未说秘密已被发现。
33.文章最后两段提到,一只山羊邀请Johannes一起去大陆(“You could come with us...when you reach the mainland...”),Johannes思考后认为这是真的,并说:“I knew I would go.”(我知道我会去。)这意味着他决定离开公园,跟随山羊继续这段通往自由的旅程(Continue the journey)。
34.故事中,野牛虽然身体被困,但通过看海找到了心灵的归宿;Johannes原本迷茫,最终找到了加入山羊群、奔向广阔天地的方向;山羊也有自己的生存方式。故事强调了每个角色都在寻找或确认自己在世界中的位置和价值。A项错误,朋友是可信的;B项非主旨;C项错误,Johannes尊重了野牛的选择,并未强加意愿。因此,D项“每个人都能在世界中找到自己的位置”最符合主题。

(2026·江苏扬州)It was 1912, in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York. Francie Nolan and her younger brother, Neeley, spent Saturday collecting and selling paper, metal, rubber and other junk for money. They spent half of the money and brought half home to their parents. Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat in the shadow of the hardy ailanthus tree, the “only tree that grew out of cement (水泥),” a tree “that liked poor people.”
...
It was two o’clock. Francie walked towards the library.
The library was a little old place. Francie thought that all the books in the world were in that library and she planned to read all the books in the world. She was reading a book a day in alphabetical (按字母表顺序的) order, even the boring ones. She had been reading a book a day for a long time now and she was still in the B’s.
On the librarian’s desk stood a neat row of freshly sharpened pencils and the returned books waiting to be put back. “When I have my own home, I’ll have a desk like this, with pencils, ‘always ready for writing,’ and books...books...books...”
Saturdays were different. She treated herself by reading a book not in the alphabetical order. On that day, she asked the librarian to recommend a book.
“Could you recommend a good book for a girl?”
“How old?” The librarian did not even look up.
“She is eleven.”
The librarian never knew the little girl who took a book out every day and two on Saturday.
Francie hurried home, holding the books close. The story of Francois Villon was more wonderful each time she read it. Sometimes she worried the book would be lost in the library. She had once started copying the book in a two-cent notebook. “When I grow up, I’ll work hard, save money and buy every single book I like.”
Now it was her weekly fire-escape-sitting time. She put glass, candy and book on the windowsill and climbed out on the fire-escape (安全梯). Once out there, she was living in a tree.
Francie breathed the warm air, watched the dancing leaf shadows, ate the candy and drank the cooled water in-between reading. The afternoon passed.
35.What can you learn from the first paragraph?
A.How old Francie Nolan was.
B.What Francie’s parents did for a living.
C.What kind of family Francie came from.
D.How much Francie and her brother made.
36.What is Francie’s favorite thing to do?
A.Collecting materials for recycling. B.Chatting with the librarian.
C.Reading books. D.Watching leaves.
37.Which of the following is true about Francie’s reading habits?
A.Copying each book she finished reading.
B.Collecting her favorite books in her study.
C.Reading every book in the library from Z through A.
D.Reading a book not in the order of the letters on Saturday.
38.Which of the following can best describe Francie Nolan?
A.Strong-willed and hopeful. B.Brave and fashionable.
C.Hard-working and humorous. D.Curious and creative.
【答案】35.C 36.C 37.D 38.A
【解析】本文节选自《布鲁克林有棵树》,讲述了小女孩弗兰西·诺兰的生活片段,包括她收集废品、在图书馆阅读以及对未来的憧憬。
35.第一段描述了弗兰西的家庭环境:“Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat...the ‘only tree that grew out of cement,’ a tree ‘that liked poor people.’”,说明她来自贫困家庭。
36.文中多次描写弗兰西去图书馆借书、读书,第三段“She was reading a book a day...”、第四段“When I have my own home, I’ll have a desk like this, with pencils...and books...books...books...”,说明阅读是她最喜欢的事。
37.第五段指出:“Saturdays were different. She treated herself by reading a book not in the alphabetical order.”,说明周六她读不按字母顺序排列的书。
38.弗兰西计划读遍图书馆所有的书,并憧憬未来拥有自己的书桌和书籍,说明她意志坚定且充满希望。

(2026·江苏连云港)“Helen! Are you coming?”
“Yes! Where are we going, Dad?” Helen asked. She didn’t often get to spend time with her father these days. He was always working, trying hard to make enough money to support Helen, her mother, and her brothers and sister.
“We’ll be getting the rent (租金),” Mr. Resnick answered.
The rent was the only way they were surviving. Before the Great Depression (经济大萧条), Mr. Resnick had bought a house and rented it to three families. Where the Resnicks would be without that rent money now, Helen really couldn’t imagine.
Mrs. Miller gave them the money in dollar bills. Mr. Schmidt managed with a bag of coins. But the third family never had enough money. It had become harder and harder to accept their rent. But as Helen’s mother said, the money in Mr. Resnick’s hand by the end of today must be enough to last for the whole month.
Mrs. Katz opened the door. Mr. Katz and the two children were sitting at a table, waiting for Mr. Resnick. They all have such thin faces! Helen thought.
Mr. Katz gave Helen’s father the money he was holding. Mr. Resnick thanked him and turned to go.
“Mr. Resnick?” Mrs. Katz said before they could leave. “We haven’t eaten in two days.”
The two little kids began to cry. Without a word, Helen’s father put all of their rent money back on the table. Then he took out the rest of the money he’d collected that day and counted out two dollars.
“Helen,” he said, “Use this to buy food and bring it right back here.”
Helen ran all the way to the store. She chose cheap and good foods, like her mom would do. Two dollars bought such a lot! Helen carried the heavy bags back to the house. The kids cried with joy when they saw each favorite food. Mr. and Mrs. Katz laughed at that, and Helen thought it was their first laugh in a long, long time.
39.Why does the author mention the Great Depression?
A.To present Helen’s wild imagination.
B.To describe Helen’s unhappy childhood.
C.To suggest a better way to make a living.
D.To stress the importance of getting the rent.
40.What did Mrs. Katz mean by saying “We haven’t eaten in two days.”?
A.She was too weak to cook. B.She would stop renting the house.
C.She invited Mr. Resnick for dinner. D.She needed help to feed her family.
41.What can we learn about Mr. Resnick?
A.He did not get any rent that day.
B.He spent much time with his family.
C.He would have a harder time that month.
D.He was not satisfied with Helen’s shopping.
42.What does the story mainly tell us?
A.Hard work brings good luck. B.Kindness shines even in difficult times.
C.Silence speaks louder than actions. D.Kids should learn to use money properly.
【答案】39.D 40.D 41.C 42.B
【解析】本文讲述了经济大萧条时期,Resnick先生一家靠收租维生,但发现租户Katz一家已两天没吃饭后,Resnick先生将租金退还并额外拿钱让他们买食物的故事。
39.第二段指出“The rent was the only way they were surviving.”,结合下文对比大萧条前后的生活状态,借艰难的时代环境突出收取租金对 Resnick 一家至关重要。
40.Mrs. Katz说“We haven’t eaten in two days.”,紧接着两个孩子开始哭泣。Katz 一家拖欠房租,且已经两天没有进食,这句话是向Resnick先生诉说自家窘迫处境,表达一家人缺少食物、急需接济。
41.第二段指出租金是他们生存的唯一来源,但最后三段中,Resnick先生将收到的Katz一家的租金全部退还“put all of their rent money back on the table”,并额外拿出钱让Helen买食物帮助Katz一家,说明他那个月会更艰难。
42.故事中Resnick先生在自己经济困难的情况下,仍选择帮助租户Katz一家,展现了即使在困难时期善良依然闪耀。

(2026·江苏淮安·一模)The big gate opened, and they all went through into a high green room. And there stood a little man. All his clothes were green. His face, too, was green, and he carried a big green box.
“What do you want in the Emerald City?” he asked them.
“We want to see the Great Oz,” said Dorothy.
…
“Oz will send for one of you in the morning.”
The next morning, after breakfast, the soldier took Dorothy and Toto to the throne room, with a high roof and big, bright emeralds(翡翠)everywhere. In the middle of the room was a tall green throne. On it was a great Head, without arms or legs. The eyes looked at Dorothy, the mouth opened, and a voice said, “I am Oz the Great and Terrible. Who are you, and what do you want?”
“I am Dorothy,” said the child in a small voice. “I need help from you.”
The eyes looked at her for a full minute. Then the voice said, “Where did you get those silver shoes?”
“From the Wicked Witch of the East.”
“Where did you get that shining mark on your face?”
“This is the kiss of the Witch of the North. She sent me to you.”
Then Oz asked, “What do you want me to do?”
“Please send me back to Kansas, to Aunt Em and Uncle Henry.”
“Why do you ask me? You were strong enough to kill the Wicked Witch of the East,” said Oz.
“I didn’t,” said Dorothy. “My house fell on her.”
“Well,” said Oz. “in this country, everybody must pay for things. Kill the Wicked Witch of the West for me. Then you can go back to Kansas.”

(2026·江苏泰州·一模)My father and I were both angry. “Never set foot in this house again!” shouted my father. With tears in my eyes, I rushed out to the street.
I walked aimlessly. A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I seemed to see my childhood from another space: happy.
But now… I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because my dad is getting old. We have different ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I walked in the streets. My heart was cold on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people in the streets, until I had only the street lights with me. When I finally reached the building where I lived, I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: “Is my father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”
In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, my dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. All the lights were off except my father’s.
Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any moments of regret. But after we fought, he had the habit of tucking me under the covers (掖被子) while I was sleeping.
This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.
The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe … With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that there wasn’t the iron door that I had imagined between us at all. Love—it’s second to none.
5.Why did the son feel there was an “iron door” between him and his father?
A.Because his father never talked to him.
B.Because his father was very old and weak.
C.Because he didn’t love his father any more.
D.Because they had totally different ways of thinking.
6.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in paragraph 6?
A.The son was afraid to tell the true feelings to his father.
B.The father knew the son’s hobby but acted like he didn’t care.
C.The son thought collecting stamps was a useless hobby himself.
D.The father would certainly be angry if he knew the son’s hobby.
7.After shouting at the son, what habit did the father have?
A.He would say sorry to the son face to face.
B.He would buy gifts for the son to make up.
C.He would turn off all the lights and go to bed early.
D.He would tuck the son under the covers when the son slept.
8.What did the son realize when he opened the door?
A.His father had already gone to sleep.
B.His father was still very angry with him.
C.Love was the most important thing between them.
D.The “iron door” between them was real and hard to open.
9.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Hot Summer Night B.My Strict Father
C.Love Behind the “Iron Door” D.My Happy Childhood
【答案】5.D 6.A 7.D 8.C 9.C
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者与父亲发生争吵后离家出走,在街头徘徊后回家,最终透过父亲亮着的灯和过往的习惯,理解了父亲深沉的爱,明白了亲情胜过一切的故事。
5.根据文章第三段“We have different ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us...”可知,作者觉得父子之间有“铁门”是因为他们的思维方式完全不同。
6.根据文章第六段划线句子“I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.”可知,作者缺乏勇气向父亲表达自己真实的喜好和感受,说明他害怕告诉父亲真实想法。
7.根据文章第七段“But after we fought, he had the habit of tucking me under the covers while I was sleeping.”可知,父亲大喊之后的习惯是给儿子掖被子。
8.根据文章最后一段“I suddenly realized that there wasn't the iron door that I had imagined between us at all. Love—it’s second to none.”可知,作者开门时意识到爱才是他们之间最重要的东西。
9.文章主要描写了父子间的隔阂(铁门)以及最终作者意识到隔阂背后是父亲深沉的爱。C项“爱在‘铁门’背后”既涵盖了冲突的比喻,又点明了爱的主题,最适合作为标题。

(2026·江苏盐城·一模)
Suddenly, there was a loud crash. Then someone screamed and a voice shouted, “Bring a towel quickly.” The man in the grey suit was lying across the table. He was holding his face, which was red with blood. On the table there was broken glass.
Someone asked in a loud voice, “What happened? Did he fall?” Several people were speaking at the same time. “It’s his heart, you know...” “He has been in and out of hospital for years...” “...his head hit those glasses.” The man was still lying across the table. Jennifer jumped up, and both she and Claire ran over to him. “We’re nurses,” said Jennifer. “Can we help?” His face was deeply cut, bleeding heavily. A waiter ran up with a towel. Jennifer took it and held it to the cut. The man’s mouth was open and he was making strange noises.
“He needs a doctor. We’ll have to get him to hospital,” Jennifer said.She turned to Claire and asked, “You came here in your car, didn’t you?”
“Yes. Let’s take him to hospital,” Claire replied. They helped the man outside and put him in Claire’s car. Jennifer jumped in beside him and they drove off. She was still holding the towel to the man’s face. The blood was not coming so fast and he was beginning to feel a little better.
“Where...where are we going?” he asked. “Are you taking me home?”
“Just stay there and don’t speak,” Jennifer told him. “You fell and hurt yourself. You’ll be all right, but you must see a doctor. We’ll be at the hospital in a few minutes.”
As soon as he heard the word “hospital”, the man tried to sit up. “No, no,” he said angrily. “I don’t need to go to hospital. I’m feeling better now. Just take me home. And who are you?”
“I’m a nurse,” Jennifer told him. “And you need to see a doctor. We’re nearly there now. Just sit still and stop talking.”
But the man felt better and kept talking. He pulled Jennifer’s arm and shouted, “I don’t need a doctor. It’s just a small cut. I’m fine. Take me home!” Jennifer didn’t answer. Then he spoke softly, “Please listen. I don’t need the treatment. They will keep me there because of my heart. I have an important meeting soon. Please stop the car. I will take a taxi home.”
Soon, the car stopped at the door of the hospital. A nurse came to meet them. When Claire told her about the accident, Jennifer helped the man out of the car. He said something angrily to the nurse, but after a few seconds, he went with her into the hospital. Jennifer and Claire drove away.
“What a difficult man!” Claire said angrily. “No ‘Thank you for your help,’ or ‘You’re very kind.” “Some people never say thank you,” Jennifer said. “Don’t worry about it. Follow your heart.”

Before going out, Marilla reminded her adopted daughter Anne, “The raspberry cordial(树莓果汁) is on the kitchen table. Be careful and don’t take the wrong bottle.”
“I won’t,” Anne answered. She wanted everything to be perfect for Diana.
On the kitchen table stood a bottle filled with a bright red drink. It looked just like raspberry cordial, so Anne poured it into Diana’s glass without thinking twice.
Diana drank one glass, then another. In no time, her face turned red. She began to laugh loudly and could hardly stand. Anne grew worried, but she still didn’t know what had gone wrong.
Not long after, Mrs.Barry, Diana’s mother, learned what her daughter had drunk. She hurried to Green Gables, her face full of anger.
“What drink did you give my daughter? That was not raspberry cordial!” she cried.
Marilla checked the bottle. “It is currant wine,” she said, totally amazed!
Mrs.Barry turned to Anne. “Diana is not allowed to come here again!” Anne stood there silently, feeling sorry and heartbroken.
Several days later, Diana ran into Green Gables.
“Oh, Anne, do come quick! Minnie May is awfully sick. Father and Mother are away. I don’t know what to do!” Diana’s voice shook and tears rolled down her face.
Anne didn’t waste a moment and went with her at once. Remembering what she had learned while caring for sick children in hospital before, Anne stayed calm and worked patiently all night until a doctor finally arrived. Minnie May felt much better.
The next day, Mrs.Barry went to Green Gables with some fresh flowers for Anne.
“Anne,” she smiled and said gently, “I’m truly sorry. I shouldn’t have kept you and Diana apart. I supposed you might hurt her, but now I realize you never would. If it’s all right with you, Diana may visit you again.”
Anne said nothing, but her eyes shone softly. She had made a careless mistake, but from it she learned the true meaning of friendship.

(2026·江苏宿迁·一模)On the first day of school, our professor challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned round to find a little old lady looking up at me with a smile. She said, “Hi, handsome! I’m Rose. I’m 87 years old. Can I give you a hug?”
I laughed, “Of course! Why are you in college at such a young, innocent (幼稚的) age?” I asked.
She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children and then travel around.”
“No seriously,” I asked. I was curious why she took on this challenge at this age.
“I always dreamed of having a college education, and now I’m getting one,” she told me.
We became friends. Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk for hours. Listening to this human “time machine” as she shared her years of wisdom and experience with me was so interesting.
Over the year, Rose became a campus icon (校园偶像) and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and enjoyed the attention from other students. She was living it up.
At the end of the term, we invited Rose to speak at a student gathering. I’ll never forget what she taught us. “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only a few secrets to staying young. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. There are many people walking around who are dead, and they don’t even know it,” she said.
“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability,” she added. “But growing up requires finding the opportunity (机会) in change. Have no regrets (后悔). People usually don’t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.”
Rose taught us by example that it’s never too late to be all you can possibly be.
17.What does the underlined phrase “living it up” probably mean?
A.Enjoying life. B.Achieving big things in life.
C.Being friendly to others. D.Working hard at college.
18.What does “growing up” mean to Rose?
A.It means taking on more responsibilities (责任).
B.It means people stop playing.
C.It means people have a lot of regrets.
D.It has something to do with the chances of change.
19.What is the correct order of the following events?
a. Rose became popular among students.
b. Rose explained why she went to college.
c. Rose gave an inspiring speech.
d. Rose and the author became friends.
e. Rose introduced herself to the author.
A.e-d-a-b-c B.e-b-d-a-c C.d-e-a-c-b D.d-a-c-e-b
20.What lesson can we learn from Rose’s life and experience?
A.Being nice to people can gain respect from them.
B.The secret of staying young is never stopping studying.
C.Do what we dream of and live without regrets.
D.No matter how old we are, we should keep playing.
【答案】17.A 18.D 19.B 20.C
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了 87 岁的罗斯进入大学求学,与作者相识相伴,成为校园偶像,并通过演讲分享人生智慧,告诉我们要心怀梦想、把握机会、不留遗憾地生活。
17.原文第7段第2-3句“She loved to dress up and enjoyed the attention from other students. She was living it up.”,前文表明罗斯热爱打扮、乐于享受同学们的关注,由此可推测“living it up”意为享受生活。
18.原文倒数第二段第4句“But growing up requires finding the opportunity (机会) in change.”,这句话说明在罗斯看来,成长和在变化中寻找机会有关。
19.梳理原文事件顺序:e.罗斯向作者自我介绍(第1段)→b.罗斯解释上大学的原因(第5段)→d.罗斯和作者成为朋友(第6段)→a.罗斯成为受学生欢迎的人(第7段)→c.罗斯发表励志演讲(第8‑9段),顺序为 e‑b‑d‑a‑c。

(2026·江苏常州·一模)I’ve always loved the idea of being a “garden person”, the kind who sits among beautiful flowers, drinks coffee at sunrise and enjoys slow dinners at sunset. My parents are garden people, and I’ve tried to follow their lead.
When I first moved into my home 12 years ago, I planted marigolds (金盏花) and tomatoes in the garden. I watered and weeded (除杂草). I bought a nice garden chair. I did all the things I’d hoped to do, but after a few times, I felt bored. Here I was, lucky enough to have a bit of garden in the city, and I couldn’t sit and enjoy it.
The seasons went by, and I didn’t even sit in the garden. Instead, I watched TV, avoiding the bugs and cobwebs (蜘蛛网) outdoors. But I couldn’t shake off the guilt, and I still wanted to be a garden person.
So last summer, I brought back my garden chair, swept away the leaves, watered the plants and cut back the grapevine and blackberry bush.
And, on one very hot day, I thought, “Yes, now I will sit.”
So, I sat. And I was shocked.
For the first time, I found a sense of peace among the greenery and sounds of the outdoors. This seemed to reset my mind in a way that the indoors did not. Inside, I might feel like something is wrong and I can’t relax. Outside, I sat, I listened and I breathed without anything troubling me. And some of my stress went away, though not all of it.
I read. I watched the slow growing of grapes and blackberries and apples. I sat in silence — silence, except for the soft sound of a passing airplane and the rustle (沙沙声) of leaves as the wind blew through them.
And I thought to myself, “This garden is growing on me.”
21.What does the writer mean by “I couldn’t shake off the guilt” in paragraph 3?
A.She felt sorry for not taking care of her garden.
B.She was afraid of the bugs and cobwebs outside.
C.She regretted buying the garden chair.
D.She felt guilty for watching TV too much.
22.Why did the writer feel shocked after sitting in the garden?
A.Because she found the garden was full of bugs.
B.Because she saw the fruits growing faster than before.
C.Because she thought the garden was too quiet to stay in.
D.Because she realized being outside felt different from being inside.
23.What does the sentence “This garden is growing on me” suggest about the writer?
A.She believes the garden needs more care.
B.She realizes the garden is too much work for her.
C.She is starting to enjoy being in the garden more and more.
D.She thinks the plants in the garden are growing well.
【答案】21.A 22.D 23.C
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者一直向往成为“爱园艺的人”,但因种种原因疏于打理花园,后来重新走进花园,最终感受到园艺带来的宁静与治愈,逐渐爱上花园的经历。
21.第三段提到作者“didn’t even sit in the garden. Instead, I watched TV, avoiding the bugs and cobwebs outdoors”,说明作者疏于打理、享受花园生活,无法摆脱的愧疚感来自于自己没有用心照料花园。
22. 第六段提到“For the first time, I found a sense of peace among the greenery and sounds of the outdoors. This seemed to reset my mind in a way that the indoors did not. Inside, I might feel like something is wrong and I can’t relax. Outside, I sat, I listened and I breathed without anything troubling me”,说明作者震惊是因为发现身处户外花园的感受和室内截然不同。
23.全文讲述了作者从一开始疏于打理花园,到后来重新走进花园,感受到宁静与放松,逐渐接纳并享受花园的过程。句子“This garden is growing on me” 的含义是作者越来越喜欢、享受待在花园里的时光,因此C选项“她开始越来越喜欢待在花园里”符合文意。

(2026·江苏苏州·一模)The sun shone through the high windows of the school hall, but the air inside felt heavy.Everyone was there for the final day of the Science Fair (科学展).They were waiting to see Mr.Harris, the headmaster, punish Leo, the boy everyone believed had broken the school's most expensive telescope (望远镜).
Sam sat in the back, his heart beating like a trapped bird. He looked at Leo. The quiet boy looked sad and helpless. Then Sam's eyes moved to Brad, the leader of the football team,who stood near the front. Brad's face was calm, but he had warned Sam earlier: “Keep your mouth shut."
Sam knew the truth. He had seen Brad knock the telescope over by accident while playing with a football indoors. But Brad was a boy everyone feared to go against. Staying silent was safe. Speaking up meant trouble.
“Leo, do you have anything to say?" Mr. Harris asked strictly.
Sam stood up. He remembered the nights he couldn't sleep, feeling guilty about Leo being punished for something he didn't do. He thought of what his grandfather always said. A hero wasn't someone who was never scared; a hero was someone who did the right thing even when they were shaking.
He moved forward. The hall grew quiet.
“Sam?”Mr.Harris asked."Do you have something to share?"
Sam's voice shook at first."I... I was in the hall yesterday evening."
Everyone whispered in surprise. Sam looked directly at Mr. Harris instead of looking at Brad's angry eyes. He almost stopped, but then he saw Leo's sad face. He knew he must help the boy who did nothing wrong.
“I saw it all,”Sam said, his voice becoming stronger. "Leo didn't do it. He was just cleaning up the pieces. It was Brad who hit it with his football!"
Suddenly, Brad's face turned red, and he looked down at his shoes.
Sam was still a little scared of Brad, but for the first time in days, the heavy weight on his chest disappeared.
Sometimes, a single voice in a quiet room is enough to change everything.
28.Who was the person everyone in the school believed had broken the telescope?

30.Why did Sam's voice change from "shaking" to “becoming stronger"?
A.Because he stopped looking at Brad's angry eyes.
B.Because the whispers in the hall gave him courage.
C.Because he wanted to show his grandfather he was a hero.
D.Because he felt he must help the boy who did nothing wrong.
31.What does the underlined sentence “Sometimes, a single voice in a quiet room is enough to change everything.”mean?
A.Being a hero means you are never afraid of anything.
B.One person's courage can help others and make things right.
C.It is important to speak loudly when a room is very quiet.

【答案】28.C 29.A 30.D 31.B
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了男孩Sam在科学展上,克服对校队队长Brad的恐惧,勇敢站出来说出真相,为被冤枉打碎学校望远镜的Leo洗清罪名的故事,传达了“勇气能改变一切”的主题。
28.根据原文第一段最后一句“They were waiting to see Mr.Harris,the headmaster,punish Leo,the boy everyone believed had broken the school's most expensive telescope.”可知,全校所有人都认为是Leo打碎了望远镜。
29.根据原文第三段“But Brad was a boy everyone feared to go against.Staying silent was safe. Speaking up meant trouble.”可知,Sam一开始保持沉默是因为他害怕得罪Brad,担心给自己惹麻烦。
30.根据原文倒数第三段“He almost stopped,but then he saw Leo's sad face.He knew he must help the boy who did nothing wrong.”可知,Sam看到无辜的Leo难过的样子,意识到自己必须帮助他,因此声音从颤抖变得坚定。
31.划线句意为“有时候,安静房间里的一个声音就足以改变一切”。结合全文,Sam一个人鼓起勇气说出真相,不仅洗清了Leo的冤屈,也让犯错的Brad得到了应有的关注,纠正了错误的局面。这句话的深层含义是一个人的勇气可以帮助他人,让事情回归正轨。

(2026·江苏淮安·一模)A tall man with long greasy hair was wandering round the shop looking lost. “Can I help you?” said Gary. The man looked surprised, maybe even a little nervous. Gary wondered why the man was wearing a big overcoat when it was so warm outside.
At around twenty-five past three, when Gary was getting ready to go to Mr Moore’s office, a shout came from the back of the shop. There was a loud crash, and then more shouting.
The man in the overcoat raced out from behind the breakfast cereals and headed towards the exit. “He’s a shoplifter,” shouted Ray. The man ran like lightning past Gary. Gary made a quick decision. He ran at full speed towards the display of peas. He took aim and kicked. One can of peas shot along the ground and rolled under the man’s feet. He lost his balance and he went sprawling onto the floor. A group of customers, who had witnessed the scene, started clapping and cheering.
Two policemen in a police car arrived just a few minutes after the incident. Ray handed the shoplifter over to the policemen. The man’s overcoat was full of perfumes, aftershave, and electric toothbrushes.
“Great shot,” said Ray. “Maybe you can teach me how to do that.” “Incredible,” said Karen. “They need players like you at the Academy, Gary.” She stopped. “What time is that Academy entry test? Did you say five o’clock?” Gary looked at his watch. “Oh no!” he said. “It’s a quarter to five. I’ve got to go.”
— Adapted from Mr Football
32.Why did the tall man look nervous?
A.Because he was lost in the shop. B.Because he was a shoplifter.
C.Because he bought many things. D.Because he wore a big overcoat.
33.What did Gary do to stop the man?
A.He caught the man by his arms. B.He asked the customers for help.
C.He called the policemen at once. D.He kicked a pea can to stop the man.
34.Which picture best shows the meaning of “sprawling” in Paragraph 3?
A. B. C. D.
35.What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph?
A.Gary was accepted by the Football Academy. B.Gary refused to teach Ray how to kick the ball.
C.Karen didn’t think Gary a good football player. D.Gary would be late for the Academy entry test.
【答案】32.B 33.D 34.C 35.D
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了Gary在商店制止行窃者,却差点耽误足球学院入学测试的故事。
32.文章第三段中“The man in the overcoat raced out from behind the breakfast cereals and headed towards the exit. ‘He’s a shoplifter,’ shouted Ray.”以及第四段中“The man’s overcoat was full of perfumes, aftershave, and electric toothbrushes.”表明,那个男人是小偷。Gary主动搭话时他紧张,是因为害怕被发现。
33.文章第三段中“He ran at full speed towards the display of peas. He took aim and kicked. One can of peas shot along the ground and rolled under the man’s feet.”说明,Gary通过踢豌豆罐头绊倒了小偷,制止了他逃跑。
34.文章第三段中“One can of peas shot along the ground and rolled under the man’s feet. He lost his balance and he went sprawling onto the floor.”表明,小偷被罐头绊倒后,失去平衡,应是摔倒在地上,四肢张开躺在地上的状态,因此划线词“sprawling”意思应为“张开四肢躺”,C选项图片符合题意。
35.文章最后一段中“‘What time is that Academy entry test? Did you say five o’clock?’ Gary looked at his watch. ‘Oh no!’ he said. ‘It’s a quarter to five. I’ve got to go.’”表明,Karen提醒Gary学院入学测试在五点,Gary看表后发现已是四点四十五,距离测试仅剩15分钟,由此可以推断他很可能会迟到。

(2026·江苏南京·一模)I’m six. Mom gets me up in the middle of every night and carries me to the car. It’s time to make the donuts (甜甜圈). She lays me in a lawn chair in the back of the donut shop and covers me with her jacket before she gets to work with Dad. There, under her jacket and in the midst of all that hustle and bustle (喧嚣繁忙), I feel completely safe and loved. I get up and try to talk customers into playing Candy Land with me before I catch the bus for school. I get to take donuts for snack time. I’m everyone’s favourite snack-bringer. I learn about friends and nice music and that the way to anyone’s heart is through his or her stomach.
I’m ten. Mom takes me to the supermarket every day to get the ingredients (原料) for endless casseroles, meat loaves and fried chicken. I complain a lot. I learn about budgets (预算), and that all that stuff tastes better than I would have ever thought.
I’m twenty-eight. For my birthday, I ask my mom to finally show me the trick to her famous pies for which there is no recipe (菜谱). She shows me how to mix the ingredients for the crust, just as her mother showed her. She tells me that we’ll pre-bake these for cream pies. We mix eggs and double-boil pudding for hours. I learn that, no matter how detailed your notes are, nothing can replace practice and a natural talent, and that using my great-grandmother’s rolling pin (擀面杖), my maternal grandmother’s (外祖母的) recipes and my paternal grandmother’s (祖母的) pie pan while cooking with my mom creates a feeling of connection I can’t explain.
I’m thirty-one. I’m standing in my mother’s kitchen with her and my sister, my memories so thick I can hardly breathe. I’m helping her go through a lifetime of collected kitchen tools and home machines because she will move to a smaller home soon. Throw that away, sell this, keep that. Yes, sell all the modern plastic tools. But I will never give up those colourful glass mixing bowls, the silver cups, the old pie plates and baking dishes and cookie boxes from my childhood in the kitchen. With my mom. I learn that sooner or later, we all have to let go of the things, because the memories are now a part of who we are. But I also learn why my mom was always so happy in the kitchen. With her mom.
And now, no matter what happens, I’ve learned that my mom will always be with me in mine.
36.Each picture shows the writer’s experience at a certain age. Which age is missing?
A.Age 6. B.Age 10. C.Age 28. D.Age 31.
37.What makes the writer feel safe and loved in the donut shop?
A.She often brings donuts to friends for snack time.
B.She can eat donuts and listen to nice music in the shop.
C.The customers play games with her before school starts.
D.Her parents always keep her with them and look after her well.
38.Which of the following best describes how the writer’s feelings change over time?
A.From loving the donut shop to liking the supermarket more.
B.From doing everything alone to expecting help from her mother.
C.From being curious about cooking to wanting to leave the kitchen.
D.From complaining about kitchen chores to valuing family memories.
39.What is the writer’s main purpose of writing this passage?
A.To share unforgettable stories of running a donut shop with her parents.
B.To introduce how family cooking skills have been passed down for years.
C.To show how cooking holds family memories and connections across time.
D.To ask readers to keep their old kitchen tools instead of buying plastic ones.
【答案】36.C 37.D 38.D 39.C
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者按时间顺序(6岁、10岁、28岁、31岁)回忆了自己在厨房中度过的时光以及与母亲之间的深厚情感。
36.原文第二段开头:“I’m ten. Mom takes me to the supermarket every day...”,对应第一个图片;原文第一段开头:“I’m six... She lays me in a lawn chair in the back of the donut shop...”对应第二个图片;原文第四段开头:“I’m thirty-one. I’m standing in my mother’s kitchen with her and my sister…”,对应第三个图片,图片中有作者,作者的姐姐和作者的母亲。这里缺的是作者28岁和母亲学做派的场景,故选C。
37.第一段中提到“There, under her jacket and in the midst of all that hustle and bustle, I feel completely safe and loved.”,这说明作者在甜甜圈店感到安全和被爱是因为父母始终把她带在身边并悉心照顾,所以选项D“Her parents always keep her with them and look after her well.”正确。
38.文章开篇作者抱怨去超市采购食材“I complain a lot.”,到后来向母亲学习做派、珍惜家族烹饪工具、领悟到记忆已成为自己的一部分,情感变化是从“抱怨厨房琐事”到“珍惜家庭记忆”,所以选项D“From complaining about kitchen chores to valuing family memories.”正确。
39.全文通过作者在不同年龄段与厨房、与母亲互动的回忆,展现了烹饪如何承载家族记忆和亲情连接,所以作者的主要写作目的是展示烹饪如何跨越时间连接家庭记忆,选项C“To show how cooking holds family memories and connections across time.”正确。A“分享与父母经营甜甜圈店的难忘故事”只覆盖第一段;B“介绍家庭烹饪技巧如何代代相传”是部分内容;D“要求读者保留旧厨房用具而不是买塑料的”不是主要目的。

专题04 阅读理解(记叙文)
2026年江苏省中考英语阅读理解(记叙文)考情分析表
考点分类
江苏考情(2026)
命题规律
细节理解题
(事实定位·因果目的·
正误辨析)
12题 / 26.1%
覆盖8篇、共12题。
盐城2篇(7、11、12题);淮安2篇(15—17、20题);南通(23题);宿迁(27题);扬州(36、37题);连云港(44题)。
考查点:事实定位(谁、在哪、做了什么);因果与目的(What’s Mao’s purpose of…?);正误辨析(Which of the following is true about…?)。
正确项多为同义转述(第23题 made me come→asked me to do so;第37题 alphabetical order→order of the letters);干扰项以“张冠李戴”(第20题 on the bed/on the wheelchair)与“答非所问”(第7题 improve Yin’s life/make short videos)为主。
① 题位前移、题文同序。细节题几乎全部落在第1—2题位,答案段落与题序基本对应,可按“读题—定位—比对”推进。
② 由“找原句”转向“读懂再判断”。靠单词照抄即可作答的题明显减少,正确项多需同义转述或适度概括。
③ 干扰项集中于两类手法:一是“原文有词、对象错位”(第20题四个地点均与原文细节相关,唯有 under a big bush 对应钥匙位置);二是“答非所问”(第7题三个干扰项均与文中信息相关,却均非捐款目的)。
④ 同一篇内的细节题多按“人物—事件—原因”分点设题,单题只考一个信息点,合起来构成对基本事实的网格化覆盖。
⑤ 备考指向:固化“题干定位—区间比对—同义还原”三步;凡选项与原文用词高度重合,须回查其主语与逻辑关系。
推理判断题
(人物形象·情感态度·
情节结局)
10题 / 21.7%
覆盖6篇、共10题。
镇江(3题);无锡(5题);宿迁(29、30题);苏州(31—33题);扬州(35、38题);连云港(41题)。
三个落点:人物形象(What were Amy and Neil like?)、情感态度(probably felt/think of their journey)、结局推断(What would Johannes do in the end?)。
人物形象题选项固定为“形容词+and+形容词”(Helpful and honest);情感题选项为四个单形容词(free/proud/curious/nervous),同属一个语义场。
① 全部在句群或段落层面整合信息,设问以 probably/infer/would 等情态与推测词明确标注推断属性。
② 人物形象题要求“以事证品”:正确项须覆盖全文多个行为(第3题“乐于助人”对应答应照看小猪,“诚实”对应主动坦白),只在某一段成立的选项即为错项。
③ 情感态度题依动作、语言与环境描写反推(第30题由老师致谢、全场掌声推出 proud),选项中常混入“文中无据却合乎常理”的干扰。
④ 结局推断题以人物对话与内心独白为据(“I knew I would go.”→continue the journey),考查行为逻辑的把握。
⑤ 备考指向:建立“人物—事件—品质”对应表;坚持“无文本证据不选”,排除凭生活经验想当然的选项。
主旨大意题
(标题归纳·主题启示·
段落大意)
9题 / 19.6%
覆盖8篇、共9题。
标题2题:无锡6(The Untouchable)、盐城10(A Generous Act, a Big Difference);主题启示5题:盐城14、淮安18、淮安22、苏州34、连云港42;段落与观点2题:连云港45、46。
设问:best title/mainly tell us/what can we learn/theme/last paragraph mainly about;正确项多为凝练的名词短语或格言式短句。
干扰项在“局部意象”(The LED Screen)与“泛化拔高”(Common Home on the Earth)之间摆动。
① 12篇中有9篇设宏观概括题(标题、主题、启示、段意或写作意图),且全部置于末题压轴,是全文区分度最高的题位。
② 标题题遵循“涵盖全文—指向主体—语言凝练”三重标准;干扰项或以偏概全(A Lucky Boy),或只取局部意象。
③ 启示类高频借用英语谚语与格言(A friend in need is a friend indeed./Practice makes perfect.),要求由具体故事抽象出普遍道理;选项间常构成“近义干扰”,须回到故事内核比对。
④ 段落概括题(第46题)考查“段内分层—提炼共同指向”,答案须统摄全段而非某一句。
⑤ 主题分布呼应“立德树人”:以友善互助、成长励志为主,兼及家国情怀与文化自信(井冈山红色文化、徐悲鸿、殷玉珍治沙),价值观导向清晰。
⑥ 备考指向:以“写谁—写什么—想表达什么”三问检验标题;谚语类选项须“义合”更要“文合”。
篇章结构题
(事件排序)
6题 / 13.0%
6篇各设1题:镇江2、盐城8、淮安21、南通25、宿迁28、连云港43。
设问统一为 Which of the following is the correct order of…? 事件以 a—e 列于题干,选项为四个字母序列(如 A.a-d-c-b)。
事件呈三种类型:动作链(答应照看→邻居离家→卡车惊猪→花园被毁);时间轴(1912年习画→1923年参展→1927年归国执教→1933年办展);人生阶段(六岁读经→教画养家→赴法求学→北大任教)。
① 排序题是江苏记叙文的高频题型:12篇中设6题(50%),每篇仅1题,多置于倒数第1—2题。
② 解题支点是显性时间词与逻辑信号(In 1912/After/Beginning in 1919/Then/Finally)及动作先后,属“结构化速读”,而非逐句精读。
③ 选项多按“首事件×末事件”交叉组合,确定首、末两环即可排除三项;命题刻意降低运算量,突出对叙事脉络的把握。
④ 传记类可按“童年—求学—事业—成就”切分,叙事类可按“起因—经过—转折—结果”切分,两种框架与选项结构高度吻合。
⑤ 备考指向:训练“圈时间词、划动词链、定首尾”三步法,答题时先排首末、再验中间。
词义猜测题
(代词指代·
语境释义)
3题 / 6.5%
3题:无锡4(it→the body weight)、盐城13(wobbled→moved from side to side)、淮安19(bad-tempered→easy to get angry)。
恰好覆盖代词回指、动词释义、形容词释义三种类型;选项均为四个短语释义,词性统一、语义场一致。
① 题量小而稳定(每卷0—1题,占6.5%),但类型完整,代词回指、动词释义、形容词释义三类均有覆盖。
② 所考词一律不加中文注释,而文中其他影响理解的生词(paralysed、spinal cord injury、bison、chaos 等)均随文注出——“注释词”与“考点词”严格分离,保证所考词必可推测。
③ 线索设计遵循三条路径:同义复现(wobbled 与后文 wobbled no longer 呼应)、反义对照(bad-tempered 与 shouted、threw things 对照)、同句回指(it 承接前文 the weight of my body)。
④ 备考指向:代词用“回指三查”(查前句主宾、查并列结构、查单复一致);实词用“三证法”(定义、复现、举例),忌脱离语境选“最常见义”。
句意理解与
写作意图题
(言外之意·
篇章功能)
6题 / 13.0%
句意理解3题:镇江1(Mrs Brown 的话是什么意思)、南通24(画线句表明公众在等待什么)、连云港40(“We haven’t eaten in two days.”的含义)。
写作意图3题:盐城9(为何引网友的话)、南通26(文章想告诉读者什么)、连云港39(为何提大萧条)。
设问:What did…mean?/Why does the writer mention…?/What does the article want to tell the readers?
① 两类题共同指向“言外之意”:句意题考“话里有话”(委婉托付、暗示困境),意图题考“材为何用”(引语佐证、背景铺垫)。
② 句意题的正确答案须还原“谁说、对谁说、为何说”(第40题由欠租、断炊与孩子哭泣推出“需要接济”);字面直译项(She was proud of her garden/She invited him for dinner)为典型错项。
③ 意图题的答案落在篇章功能上:引网友评论是为“替善意致谢”(第9题),交代大萧条是为“凸显租金之重”(第39题)。
④ 干扰项“两手下注”:一手字面化(照抄句中词),一手过度化(拔高到文章未涉及的层面)。
⑤ 备考指向:句意题做“语境还原”,意图题做“删除检验”——删去该句或该段,论证是否仍成立。
【说明:本表以2026年江苏省中考英语阅读理解(记叙文)(见本文档的第二部分“一年真题分类”)真题12篇、46道小题为样本,覆盖镇江、无锡、盐城(2篇)、淮安(2篇)、南通、宿迁、苏州、扬州、连云港(2篇)9个地市;篇目词数约210—470词,平均约340词,每篇3—4题(3题2篇、4题10篇)。其中4篇改编或节选自英文文学作品,3篇为中国题材人物通讯或传记,6篇配有与情节相关的插图。】

(2026·江苏镇江)
Amy and I just finished playing basketball in the park and on our way back, we met our neighbour Mrs Brown. She said she would go to hospital the next day and asked us if we’d like to help watch her piggies for several hours. Though we had never done that before, we decided to have a try.
When we arrived at Mrs Brown’s house the next morning, we were deeply attracted by the cute piggies. “They are the most lovely sweethearts I can imagine!” I said.
“Aren’t they?” Mrs Brown agreed. “Neil, I put up this small gate to keep my freshly planted garden safe while they two have a sleep outside. If you and Amy sit here and touch them softly, they’ll probably sleep the whole time I’m gone.” Then she added, “Their food is in the fridge, but they shouldn’t be hungry before I get back at noon.” With these words, Mrs Brown left.
At first, the piggies lay in their blankets. We touched them gently and they fell asleep fast. They looked like peaceful sleeping angels. Things seemed to go smoothly. Suddenly, a truck drove by, making a loud noise. Our sleeping angels jumped up, spun around in circles, and started racing all over the place! They knocked over the small gate and began digging in the garden like it was their playground. We tried to get them out of there, but it didn’t work.
Amy suggested that food might get their attention. I rushed to the fridge for the food. Luckily, even though it wasn’t lunchtime yet, they quickly ate up their food, lay down in their blankets and fell back to sleep.
The whole garden was in a mess. Amy and I quietly put the small gate back and did our best to make it look as good as before. Later, we told everything to Mrs Brown. Even though it meant some replanting work, she thought the whole thing was funny.
—Adapted from Piggy Tornado

(2026·江苏无锡)
“Please help me get through this!” I watched the big LED screen. There were five minutes left. I felt great pain in my back, which had been kneed by a player from the other team. I rolled from side to side, tears streaming down. It was a blow to my pride for I was always the man of the match, the best player on the field, popularly known as the “Untouchable”.
Soon doctors came. “Jared, can you hear…” Those were the last words I heard before I lost consciousness (知觉).
I opened my eyes slowly as silence filled the air. I tried my best to sit up but the weight of my body was like gravity and it pulled me down. I became aware that I had lost sense in my legs. I moved my fingers to feel them. They were still there! Could I be…? I shook my head.
“I’m your doctor, Wilson Ty. You are a strong man, Jared. How are you feeling?”
Feeling? I could not feel anything.
“My legs…” I said, then paused. Dr Wilson Ty began to talk about my condition. But only two words jumped out at me—paralysed (瘫痪的) forever. As I was trying to make sense of what he meant, my coach and a few of my teammates came in.
“Coach…help me!” The words came out of my mouth.
“It’s OK, Jared. Don’t lose heart.” My coach was trying to avoid saying more as he turned away, hiding the tears.
“Coach, I want to play soccer again, no matter what happens. I need you to help me,” I said as I held his arm tightly.
I struggled bravely in the next few months to be on my feet again. The hard knock had left me with a spinal cord injury (脊椎损伤). The “Untouchable” had become the “Vulnerable (脆弱的)”.
After almost a year in hospital, I finally felt my feet firmly on the ground as I made my way to the field. This would be my first game after fate (命运) almost turned my life upside down. Without doubt, it was the game that I won, I thought.
As I walked towards the field, the whole stadium was filled with “Hero! Hero!” together with “Welcome back, Untouchable Jared!” on the LED screen. They were shouting louder than they had ever done. My teammates handed the ball to me. The indescribable feeling came to me and this time, there were tears of joy.
4.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)?
A.The air. B.Silence. C.The body weight. D.Gravity.
5.When Jared thought Without doubt, it was the game that I won, he probably felt ________.
A.free B.proud C.curious D.nervous
6.What is the best title for this story?
A.The LED Screen B.A Lucky Boy
C.An Unforgettable Game D.The Untouchable

(2026·江苏盐城)Back in 1999, an American exchange teacher Ronald Sakolsky was deeply touched by Yin Yuzhen’s hard work on desert greening. So he raised 5,000 dollars to support her work in the Mu Us Desert.
The two lost contact after donation. But Yin never forgot his help. Today, that 5,000-dollar donation has finally grown into over 50,000 trees. The desert has turned into thick woods, where wild animals come back and sandstorms are well controlled.
Missing the kind foreign friend all the time, Yin made a public video and invited Sakolsky to see the forest for himself. The video spread quickly online. An online user wrote, “You give me a drop of water, I return a sea. You plant a single tree, I give back a spring.”
With people’s help, they talked through a video call within 48 hours. Learning his small kindness created such great changes, Sakolsky felt greatly surprised and excited.
Sakolsky has always loved Chinese culture and kept sharing what he learnt in China with his students after returning home. He gladly accepted Yin’s invitation and hoped to plant trees together in person.
This moving story attracts wide attention online. More international friends have joined the tree-planting activity to make the earth greener. The lasting friendship and joint (共同的) efforts fully show that all humans share one common home, and that kindness will always take root and grow strong.
7.What did Sakolsky donate the money for?

(2026·江苏盐城)Christopher Robin read the message which Pooh got from the floating bottle aloud.
“We must rescue (援救) him at once! Owl, could you rescue him on your back?”
“I don’t think so,” said Owl, after serious thought.
“Then would you fly to him at once and say that rescue is coming? And Pooh and I will think of a rescue and come as quick as ever we can. Owl, go on quick!” And, still thinking of something to say, Owl flew off.
“Now then, Pooh,” said Christopher Robin, “where’s your boat?”
“There!” said Pooh, pointing proudly to The Floating Bear.
It wasn’t what Christopher Robin expected, and the more he looked at it, the more he thought what a brave and clever bear Pooh was, and the more Christopher Robin thought this, the more Pooh looked modestly down his nose and tried to pretend (假装) he wasn’t.
“But it’s too small for two of us,” said Christopher Robin sadly.
“Three of us with Piglet.”
“That makes it smaller still. Oh, Pooh Bear, what shall we do?”
And then this Bear, Pooh Bear, Winnie-the-Pooh — in fact, Pooh himself — said something so clever that Christopher Robin could only look at him with mouth and eyes open wide, wondering if this was really the bear of very little brain whom he had known and loved so long.
“We might go in your umbrella,” said Pooh.
“?”
“We might go in your umbrella,” said Pooh.
“??”
“We might go in your umbrella,” said Pooh.
“!!!!!!”
For suddenly Christopher Robin saw that they might. He opened his umbrella and put it point downwards in the water. It floated but wobbled. Pooh got in. He was just beginning to say that it was all right now, when he found that it wasn’t, so after a short drink which he didn’t really want, he waded (蹚) back to Christopher Robin. Then they both got in together, and it wobbled no longer.
“I shall call this boat The Brain of Pooh,” said Christopher Robin, and The Brain of Pooh set sail at once in a south-westerly direction.
You can imagine Piglet’s joy when at last the ship came in sight of him.

(2026·江苏淮安)Mao Haofu, born in 1989, comes from Jinggangshan, Jiangxi Province. The Jinggang Mountains are known as the “cradle (摇篮) of the Chinese revolution (革命)”. This area is a symbol of the Chinese people’s spirit of overcoming (克服) difficulties with hard work.
Mao Haofu’s grandfather spent his whole life passing on this spirit. Growing up in such a family, Mao saw the spirit as part of his life. At the age of 27, he gave up a well-paid job to continue his family’s work.
Back in Jinggangshan, he started to spread red culture, including the revolutionary history, great spirit and heroic stories. To make tourists have a deeper understanding of the history, Mao designed some special activities, such as walking down the Red Army Trail (红军小道), helping people feel more connected to the past. In addition, to make the history known to more people around the world, Mao makes short English videos about red culture, winning high praise from many people.
Mao’s work, however, goes far beyond that. He also makes short videos to sell local products like the famous sweet fruit honey pomelo. In order to introduce the fruit to more people, he often stays up late to make these videos patiently. With his help, the sweet fruit is sold all over the country. Mao also helps villagers manage hotels and teaches them how to serve tourists well. With Mao and the local people’s hard work, more and more tourists are attracted there and the local people’s lives improve a lot. Those small mountain villages turn into lively places.
Because of his efforts, Mao was honoured with the New Era Youth Pioneer (新时代青年先锋奖) of 2025. Those mountains are silent witnesses to what Mao has done. For him, the past and the future are of the same importance. He will keep on walking along the path, lighting up the way forward.

Colin’s illness made him stay in bed all day. He became very bad-tempered and always shouted at others. Sometimes he even threw things at his servants (仆人).
One day, his best friends Mary and Dickon came to visit him as usual. Colin’s face was white, looking sad and tired. Mary and Dickon thought it was time to tell Colin about the secret garden.
“Colin, we’re going to take you to a special place, but you must keep it secret!” said Mary.
Colin’s eyes grew bigger, curious about the secret place.
The next day, Mary and Dickon carried Colin downstairs and put him in the wheelchair. Mary looked around to make sure that no one was watching. Then she picked up the key under a big bush and opened the door of the secret garden. Dickon pushed the wheelchair quickly inside.
In the garden, Colin looked round and round. He listened to the sweet sound of the birds singing, and he felt the warm sun on his face. His pale skin started to become pink as he breathed in the good, fresh air. That day, the world changed for Colin.
From then on, Colin even followed Dickon to do some simple exercise in the wheelchair. He went to the secret garden with Mary and Dickon nearly every day.
Something amazing happened in the secret garden that spring and summer. At first, everything turned green. Then the green changed to colours — blue, purple and red. There were flowers everywhere. The garden was so beautiful that Colin wanted to walk freely in it, but he was afraid that he couldn’t.
“I believe that there is magic in the garden. The magic made all the plants grow strong. It can make you grow strong too,” Mary said to Colin.
Encouraged by Mary, Colin tried to pull himself up out of his wheelchair. And with Dickon’s help, he stood up straight and tall.
“Look at me,” he shouted. “Just look at me!”
Colin stayed standing. Suddenly, he stopped feeling afraid.
“I’m not the poor boy who is always ill,” he cried.

(2026·江苏南通)When I was a child, I often got into fights at school and my grades dropped sharply, so my mother made me come to her workplace after school — the space centre, where she worked in the cafeteria.
One day, an astronaut named Richard saw me struggling with Maths homework. He sat down and helped me. From then on, he and other astronauts often stopped by to help me with my studies. For my 15th birthday, I got a private tour of Mission Control. Standing in that room, filled with screens and maps, I felt a strange excitement. It was amazing!
On June 2nd, a spaceship launched for the Moon. I watched behind the glass of the VIP room.
Everything seemed to be going well. Then, suddenly, we heard a loud bang. A few seconds later, Richard’s voice came over the radio, “Mission Control, we’ve had a problem.” An oxygen tank had exploded, and the situation was very dangerous.
The astronauts, Richard, Fred, and Jack, moved into the lunar module (登月舱) to survive. Back on Earth, Mission Control worked day and night to bring them home safely. I stayed close to the radio at home, listening to every update. The whole world was watching and hoping.
I was so upset that I shared what I saw at the centre with my classmates. Terry, who used to fight with me, didn’t believe what I said. He even laughed at me, “Ramon, are you joking? Those buildings are fake! Don’t you know?” Angrily, I shouted at him, “Go to the centre with me, or you’ll regret.”
Then, Terry followed me to the space centre. He saw the control room, heard the tense voices, and finally understood it was all real. Both of us worried about the safety of the spaceship. Staring at the screens for a long time, we stood still.
Finally, on June 8th, the command module was brought down into the Pacific Ocean. The three astronauts were safe. Influenced by the spirit of science, bravery, and hard work, Terry and I stopped fighting and became good friends.
As for me, I studied harder than ever and became a pilot later. My friend Terry became a flight surgeon. We often joke about how we used to fight. But what I truly learn is that kindness, teamwork, and courage can turn even the biggest disaster into a complete victory.

“How were things going today, Zhao Min?” Mum asked me.
“Terrible. Wang Xinyue got the role of Mulan at last,” I said.
“Then what role did you get?” Mum added.
“None,” I whispered. I ran to my bedroom and started drawing in my sketchbook (素描簿). Drawing always makes me feel better.
The next day, Wang Xinyue was cheerful. But when the last bell rang, her mood changed. She was so nervous that she asked me to practice with her in the school hall. I wanted to say no. Then I realized I couldn’t leave yet. My parents had signed me up (报名) for the late bus, because I thought I would be in the play.
In the hall, Ms Wu, director of the play, handed out copies of the script to all the actors. I sat in the third row, wishing I were in my bedroom drawing. Ms Wu pulled a cardboard onto the middle of the stage. It was brown with small hills and old city walls. Then the play started. Wang Xinyue acted so well that everybody cheered for her. I had to say that she was really suitable for the role of Mulan.
“When will we get the real sets (布景)?” Wang Xinyue pointed to the cardboard.
“These are the real sets,” Ms Wu said. “We don’t have an art teacher this year. So that’s the best we could do.”
Wang Xinyue and I walked outside.
“You were great,” I said. “Everyone will love the play.”
“Thanks,” Wang Xinyue said. “But did you see the sets?”
I thought for a moment. “Maybe I can help.”
I spent that evening drawing. The next morning, I put my sketchbook into my backpack and ran to the bus.
Time seemed to go more slowly. Finally, the last bell rang. I rushed to Ms Wu’s office and showed her my ideas. After seeing my ideas, she talked to some other teachers. They liked my ideas too. Over the next weeks, a corner of the lunchroom was filled with cardboard and paints. And lots of students were working on the sets.
Finally, the opening night arrived. I sat next to Mum and Dad in the hall. When the curtain (幕布) rose, a piece of amazing cardboard appeared, on which was a huge land with rolling hills, well-trained soldiers and running horses. The play began. Wang Xinyue was a wonderful Mulan, and everyone clapped (鼓掌) when the play was over.
Then Ms Wu called me up to the stage. She said into the microphone, “I’d like to thank the students who painted the sets. And special thanks to Zhao Min, who designed them. Her effort and talent made tonight extra special.”
Everyone clapped. For me, I did get a part in the play after all. And it was just as good as being Mulan.

I am a free dog called Johannes. I live in a large park by the sea. Freya is one of the three Bison (野牛) who live in an area with a fence (篱笆) within the park. Recently, I wanted to set them free and I almost succeeded.
Towards the end of the journey, Freya said to me, “We can’t go on that ship.”
“But it’s right down there,” I said. “We’ve already done the hard part. The goats (羊) have performed their duties, jumping and crying and making chaos (混乱) all around, so you wouldn’t be found when you hid among them. Everything’s ready.” I was worried, for the sky was growing brighter, and it would be more difficult for the goats to hide the Bison from humans as they went down the hill.
“No,” Freya said. “We’re not going. We thought we could, but this short journey has already proven we are not ready for more. We can’t make it.”
“But why let me—let all of us—go through all this trouble?” I asked.
“You needn’t be angry,” Freya said. “Or sad. Or even surprised. Look at us. We’re slow and old. We couldn’t go across the sea in strange boats. Seeing this is enough.”
She was still looking at the morning sea, which had grown brighter and whiter. She turned to me then. “Thank you, Johannes.” She turned to the goats. “We are so thankful. We have lived quiet lives. But you have freed our eyes and our minds. What you did today mattered a great deal. You gave us the sea. And we will not forget it.”
I tried to organize my thoughts. Was all this for nothing? And would we all have to go back to the park? I stood on the top of that small mountain, wondering what to do.
Then one of the goats said to me, “You could come with us. We will protect you, and when you reach the mainland, you can stay with us, or simply run free. There are a million free dogs like you. You can run with them and see places and things.”
I thought about this. I knew it was true. I knew I would go.
31.What did Freya think of their journey?
A.It was worth it. B.It was too long. C.It was boring. D.It was smooth.
32.What can we infer from paragraph 3?

C.The Bison were at the foot of the hill. D.Their secret was discovered by humans.

(2026·江苏扬州)It was 1912, in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York. Francie Nolan and her younger brother, Neeley, spent Saturday collecting and selling paper, metal, rubber and other junk for money. They spent half of the money and brought half home to their parents. Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat in the shadow of the hardy ailanthus tree, the “only tree that grew out of cement (水泥),” a tree “that liked poor people.”
...
It was two o’clock. Francie walked towards the library.
The library was a little old place. Francie thought that all the books in the world were in that library and she planned to read all the books in the world. She was reading a book a day in alphabetical (按字母表顺序的) order, even the boring ones. She had been reading a book a day for a long time now and she was still in the B’s.
On the librarian’s desk stood a neat row of freshly sharpened pencils and the returned books waiting to be put back. “When I have my own home, I’ll have a desk like this, with pencils, ‘always ready for writing,’ and books...books...books...”
Saturdays were different. She treated herself by reading a book not in the alphabetical order. On that day, she asked the librarian to recommend a book.
“Could you recommend a good book for a girl?”
“How old?” The librarian did not even look up.
“She is eleven.”
The librarian never knew the little girl who took a book out every day and two on Saturday.
Francie hurried home, holding the books close. The story of Francois Villon was more wonderful each time she read it. Sometimes she worried the book would be lost in the library. She had once started copying the book in a two-cent notebook. “When I grow up, I’ll work hard, save money and buy every single book I like.”
Now it was her weekly fire-escape-sitting time. She put glass, candy and book on the windowsill and climbed out on the fire-escape (安全梯). Once out there, she was living in a tree.
Francie breathed the warm air, watched the dancing leaf shadows, ate the candy and drank the cooled water in-between reading. The afternoon passed.
35.What can you learn from the first paragraph?

B.What Francie’s parents did for a living.

(2026·江苏连云港)“Helen! Are you coming?”
“Yes! Where are we going, Dad?” Helen asked. She didn’t often get to spend time with her father these days. He was always working, trying hard to make enough money to support Helen, her mother, and her brothers and sister.
“We’ll be getting the rent (租金),” Mr. Resnick answered.
The rent was the only way they were surviving. Before the Great Depression (经济大萧条), Mr. Resnick had bought a house and rented it to three families. Where the Resnicks would be without that rent money now, Helen really couldn’t imagine.
Mrs. Miller gave them the money in dollar bills. Mr. Schmidt managed with a bag of coins. But the third family never had enough money. It had become harder and harder to accept their rent. But as Helen’s mother said, the money in Mr. Resnick’s hand by the end of today must be enough to last for the whole month.
Mrs. Katz opened the door. Mr. Katz and the two children were sitting at a table, waiting for Mr. Resnick. They all have such thin faces! Helen thought.
Mr. Katz gave Helen’s father the money he was holding. Mr. Resnick thanked him and turned to go.
“Mr. Resnick?” Mrs. Katz said before they could leave. “We haven’t eaten in two days.”
The two little kids began to cry. Without a word, Helen’s father put all of their rent money back on the table. Then he took out the rest of the money he’d collected that day and counted out two dollars.
“Helen,” he said, “Use this to buy food and bring it right back here.”
Helen ran all the way to the store. She chose cheap and good foods, like her mom would do. Two dollars bought such a lot! Helen carried the heavy bags back to the house. The kids cried with joy when they saw each favorite food. Mr. and Mrs. Katz laughed at that, and Helen thought it was their first laugh in a long, long time.
39.Why does the author mention the Great Depression?

In 1933, Xu organized an exhibition of modern Chinese painting in Paris. It drew in lots of attention and was then moved to Belgium, Milan, Moscow, and other places.

(2026·江苏泰州·一模)My father and I were both angry. “Never set foot in this house again!” shouted my father. With tears in my eyes, I rushed out to the street.
I walked aimlessly. A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I seemed to see my childhood from another space: happy.
But now… I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because my dad is getting old. We have different ways of thinking. He always puts his opinions on me. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I walked in the streets. My heart was cold on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people in the streets, until I had only the street lights with me. When I finally reached the building where I lived, I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: “Is my father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”
In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, my dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. All the lights were off except my father’s.
Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any moments of regret. But after we fought, he had the habit of tucking me under the covers (掖被子) while I was sleeping.
This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.
The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe … With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that there wasn’t the iron door that I had imagined between us at all. Love—it’s second to none.

Suddenly, there was a loud crash. Then someone screamed and a voice shouted, “Bring a towel quickly.” The man in the grey suit was lying across the table. He was holding his face, which was red with blood. On the table there was broken glass.
Someone asked in a loud voice, “What happened? Did he fall?” Several people were speaking at the same time. “It’s his heart, you know...” “He has been in and out of hospital for years...” “...his head hit those glasses.” The man was still lying across the table. Jennifer jumped up, and both she and Claire ran over to him. “We’re nurses,” said Jennifer. “Can we help?” His face was deeply cut, bleeding heavily. A waiter ran up with a towel. Jennifer took it and held it to the cut. The man’s mouth was open and he was making strange noises.
“He needs a doctor. We’ll have to get him to hospital,” Jennifer said.She turned to Claire and asked, “You came here in your car, didn’t you?”
“Yes. Let’s take him to hospital,” Claire replied. They helped the man outside and put him in Claire’s car. Jennifer jumped in beside him and they drove off. She was still holding the towel to the man’s face. The blood was not coming so fast and he was beginning to feel a little better.
“Where...where are we going?” he asked. “Are you taking me home?”
“Just stay there and don’t speak,” Jennifer told him. “You fell and hurt yourself. You’ll be all right, but you must see a doctor. We’ll be at the hospital in a few minutes.”
As soon as he heard the word “hospital”, the man tried to sit up. “No, no,” he said angrily. “I don’t need to go to hospital. I’m feeling better now. Just take me home. And who are you?”
“I’m a nurse,” Jennifer told him. “And you need to see a doctor. We’re nearly there now. Just sit still and stop talking.”
But the man felt better and kept talking. He pulled Jennifer’s arm and shouted, “I don’t need a doctor. It’s just a small cut. I’m fine. Take me home!” Jennifer didn’t answer. Then he spoke softly, “Please listen. I don’t need the treatment. They will keep me there because of my heart. I have an important meeting soon. Please stop the car. I will take a taxi home.”
Soon, the car stopped at the door of the hospital. A nurse came to meet them. When Claire told her about the accident, Jennifer helped the man out of the car. He said something angrily to the nurse, but after a few seconds, he went with her into the hospital. Jennifer and Claire drove away.
“What a difficult man!” Claire said angrily. “No ‘Thank you for your help,’ or ‘You’re very kind.” “Some people never say thank you,” Jennifer said. “Don’t worry about it. Follow your heart.”

Before going out, Marilla reminded her adopted daughter Anne, “The raspberry cordial(树莓果汁) is on the kitchen table. Be careful and don’t take the wrong bottle.”
“I won’t,” Anne answered. She wanted everything to be perfect for Diana.
On the kitchen table stood a bottle filled with a bright red drink. It looked just like raspberry cordial, so Anne poured it into Diana’s glass without thinking twice.
Diana drank one glass, then another. In no time, her face turned red. She began to laugh loudly and could hardly stand. Anne grew worried, but she still didn’t know what had gone wrong.
Not long after, Mrs.Barry, Diana’s mother, learned what her daughter had drunk. She hurried to Green Gables, her face full of anger.
“What drink did you give my daughter? That was not raspberry cordial!” she cried.
Marilla checked the bottle. “It is currant wine,” she said, totally amazed!
Mrs.Barry turned to Anne. “Diana is not allowed to come here again!” Anne stood there silently, feeling sorry and heartbroken.
Several days later, Diana ran into Green Gables.
“Oh, Anne, do come quick! Minnie May is awfully sick. Father and Mother are away. I don’t know what to do!” Diana’s voice shook and tears rolled down her face.
Anne didn’t waste a moment and went with her at once. Remembering what she had learned while caring for sick children in hospital before, Anne stayed calm and worked patiently all night until a doctor finally arrived. Minnie May felt much better.
The next day, Mrs.Barry went to Green Gables with some fresh flowers for Anne.
“Anne,” she smiled and said gently, “I’m truly sorry. I shouldn’t have kept you and Diana apart. I supposed you might hurt her, but now I realize you never would. If it’s all right with you, Diana may visit you again.”
Anne said nothing, but her eyes shone softly. She had made a careless mistake, but from it she learned the true meaning of friendship.

(2026·江苏宿迁·一模)On the first day of school, our professor challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned round to find a little old lady looking up at me with a smile. She said, “Hi, handsome! I’m Rose. I’m 87 years old. Can I give you a hug?”
I laughed, “Of course! Why are you in college at such a young, innocent (幼稚的) age?” I asked.
She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children and then travel around.”
“No seriously,” I asked. I was curious why she took on this challenge at this age.
“I always dreamed of having a college education, and now I’m getting one,” she told me.
We became friends. Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk for hours. Listening to this human “time machine” as she shared her years of wisdom and experience with me was so interesting.
Over the year, Rose became a campus icon (校园偶像) and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and enjoyed the attention from other students. She was living it up.
At the end of the term, we invited Rose to speak at a student gathering. I’ll never forget what she taught us. “We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only a few secrets to staying young. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. There are many people walking around who are dead, and they don’t even know it,” she said.
“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability,” she added. “But growing up requires finding the opportunity (机会) in change. Have no regrets (后悔). People usually don’t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.”
Rose taught us by example that it’s never too late to be all you can possibly be.
17.What does the underlined phrase “living it up” probably mean?
A.Enjoying life. B.Achieving big things in life.
C.Being friendly to others. D.Working hard at college.
18.What does “growing up” mean to Rose?
A.It means taking on more responsibilities (责任).
B.It means people stop playing.
C.It means people have a lot of regrets.
D.It has something to do with the chances of change.
19.What is the correct order of the following events?

b. Rose explained why she went to college.
c. Rose gave an inspiring speech.
d. Rose and the author became friends.
e. Rose introduced herself to the author.
A.e-d-a-b-c B.e-b-d-a-c C.d-e-a-c-b D.d-a-c-e-b
20.What lesson can we learn from Rose’s life and experience?

B.The secret of staying young is never stopping studying.
C.Do what we dream of and live without regrets.
D.No matter how old we are, we should keep playing.

(2026·江苏常州·一模)I’ve always loved the idea of being a “garden person”, the kind who sits among beautiful flowers, drinks coffee at sunrise and enjoys slow dinners at sunset. My parents are garden people, and I’ve tried to follow their lead.
When I first moved into my home 12 years ago, I planted marigolds (金盏花) and tomatoes in the garden. I watered and weeded (除杂草). I bought a nice garden chair. I did all the things I’d hoped to do, but after a few times, I felt bored. Here I was, lucky enough to have a bit of garden in the city, and I couldn’t sit and enjoy it.
The seasons went by, and I didn’t even sit in the garden. Instead, I watched TV, avoiding the bugs and cobwebs (蜘蛛网) outdoors. But I couldn’t shake off the guilt, and I still wanted to be a garden person.
So last summer, I brought back my garden chair, swept away the leaves, watered the plants and cut back the grapevine and blackberry bush.
And, on one very hot day, I thought, “Yes, now I will sit.”
So, I sat. And I was shocked.
For the first time, I found a sense of peace among the greenery and sounds of the outdoors. This seemed to reset my mind in a way that the indoors did not. Inside, I might feel like something is wrong and I can’t relax. Outside, I sat, I listened and I breathed without anything troubling me. And some of my stress went away, though not all of it.
I read. I watched the slow growing of grapes and blackberries and apples. I sat in silence — silence, except for the soft sound of a passing airplane and the rustle (沙沙声) of leaves as the wind blew through them.
And I thought to myself, “This garden is growing on me.”

B.She realizes the garden is too much work for her.
C.She is starting to enjoy being in the garden more and more.
D.She thinks the plants in the garden are growing well.

But then her sister Miss Watson arrived with her friend Jim. I liked Jim very much, but Miss Watson was very strict. She shouted at me a lot.

(2026·江苏苏州·一模)The sun shone through the high windows of the school hall, but the air inside felt heavy.Everyone was there for the final day of the Science Fair (科学展).They were waiting to see Mr.Harris, the headmaster, punish Leo, the boy everyone believed had broken the school's most expensive telescope (望远镜).
Sam sat in the back, his heart beating like a trapped bird. He looked at Leo. The quiet boy looked sad and helpless. Then Sam's eyes moved to Brad, the leader of the football team,who stood near the front. Brad's face was calm, but he had warned Sam earlier: “Keep your mouth shut."
Sam knew the truth. He had seen Brad knock the telescope over by accident while playing with a football indoors. But Brad was a boy everyone feared to go against. Staying silent was safe. Speaking up meant trouble.
“Leo, do you have anything to say?" Mr. Harris asked strictly.
Sam stood up. He remembered the nights he couldn't sleep, feeling guilty about Leo being punished for something he didn't do. He thought of what his grandfather always said. A hero wasn't someone who was never scared; a hero was someone who did the right thing even when they were shaking.
He moved forward. The hall grew quiet.
“Sam?”Mr.Harris asked."Do you have something to share?"
Sam's voice shook at first."I... I was in the hall yesterday evening."
Everyone whispered in surprise. Sam looked directly at Mr. Harris instead of looking at Brad's angry eyes. He almost stopped, but then he saw Leo's sad face. He knew he must help the boy who did nothing wrong.
“I saw it all,”Sam said, his voice becoming stronger. "Leo didn't do it. He was just cleaning up the pieces. It was Brad who hit it with his football!"
Suddenly, Brad's face turned red, and he looked down at his shoes.
Sam was still a little scared of Brad, but for the first time in days, the heavy weight on his chest disappeared.
Sometimes, a single voice in a quiet room is enough to change everything.
28.Who was the person everyone in the school believed had broken the telescope?

(2026·江苏淮安·一模)A tall man with long greasy hair was wandering round the shop looking lost. “Can I help you?” said Gary. The man looked surprised, maybe even a little nervous. Gary wondered why the man was wearing a big overcoat when it was so warm outside.
At around twenty-five past three, when Gary was getting ready to go to Mr Moore’s office, a shout came from the back of the shop. There was a loud crash, and then more shouting.
The man in the overcoat raced out from behind the breakfast cereals and headed towards the exit. “He’s a shoplifter,” shouted Ray. The man ran like lightning past Gary. Gary made a quick decision. He ran at full speed towards the display of peas. He took aim and kicked. One can of peas shot along the ground and rolled under the man’s feet. He lost his balance and he went sprawling onto the floor. A group of customers, who had witnessed the scene, started clapping and cheering.
Two policemen in a police car arrived just a few minutes after the incident. Ray handed the shoplifter over to the policemen. The man’s overcoat was full of perfumes, aftershave, and electric toothbrushes.
“Great shot,” said Ray. “Maybe you can teach me how to do that.” “Incredible,” said Karen. “They need players like you at the Academy, Gary.” She stopped. “What time is that Academy entry test? Did you say five o’clock?” Gary looked at his watch. “Oh no!” he said. “It’s a quarter to five. I’ve got to go.”

(2026·江苏南京·一模)I’m six. Mom gets me up in the middle of every night and carries me to the car. It’s time to make the donuts (甜甜圈). She lays me in a lawn chair in the back of the donut shop and covers me with her jacket before she gets to work with Dad. There, under her jacket and in the midst of all that hustle and bustle (喧嚣繁忙), I feel completely safe and loved. I get up and try to talk customers into playing Candy Land with me before I catch the bus for school. I get to take donuts for snack time. I’m everyone’s favourite snack-bringer. I learn about friends and nice music and that the way to anyone’s heart is through his or her stomach.
I’m ten. Mom takes me to the supermarket every day to get the ingredients (原料) for endless casseroles, meat loaves and fried chicken. I complain a lot. I learn about budgets (预算), and that all that stuff tastes better than I would have ever thought.
I’m twenty-eight. For my birthday, I ask my mom to finally show me the trick to her famous pies for which there is no recipe (菜谱). She shows me how to mix the ingredients for the crust, just as her mother showed her. She tells me that we’ll pre-bake these for cream pies. We mix eggs and double-boil pudding for hours. I learn that, no matter how detailed your notes are, nothing can replace practice and a natural talent, and that using my great-grandmother’s rolling pin (擀面杖), my maternal grandmother’s (外祖母的) recipes and my paternal grandmother’s (祖母的) pie pan while cooking with my mom creates a feeling of connection I can’t explain.
I’m thirty-one. I’m standing in my mother’s kitchen with her and my sister, my memories so thick I can hardly breathe. I’m helping her go through a lifetime of collected kitchen tools and home machines because she will move to a smaller home soon. Throw that away, sell this, keep that. Yes, sell all the modern plastic tools. But I will never give up those colourful glass mixing bowls, the silver cups, the old pie plates and baking dishes and cookie boxes from my childhood in the kitchen. With my mom. I learn that sooner or later, we all have to let go of the things, because the memories are now a part of who we are. But I also learn why my mom was always so happy in the kitchen. With her mom.
And now, no matter what happens, I’ve learned that my mom will always be with me in mine.
