Four Books About Animals
Who Lives Here? Polar Animals by Deborah Hodge
This is a fact book about animals who live in the extreme cold. Each page talks about a different animal in a couple, easy to understand sentences that are accompanied by cute pictures. Along the side are additional facts that you can choose to share or not depending on your child’s interest. This book had some favourite animals-snowy owls and penguins!
The Magical Snow Garden by Tracey Corderoy
A little penguin named Wellington, who lives in the snow, dreams of his own flower garden. His best friend, Rosemary, helps him create his own flowers out of bits of paper, springs, gears, and other things that can be repurposed. Together, they create a beautiful garden. Sadly, a snow storm destroys the beautiful flowers. Wellington’s friends won’t let him give up, and together they rebuild the garden better than ever. Preschoolers will adore the cute illustrations in this book. And everyone can benefit from the message, “We don’t know until we try.”
Tacky the Penguin by Helen Lester
Here’s a bird who grows well in the snow-meet Tacky, the funniest penguin! He can’t sing, dive, or march the way other penguins do; Tacky does everything his own way. At first this seems to be a bad thing, but when the hunters come looking for penguins, Tacky’s odd behaviour drives them away! It turns out that being yourself is pretty great.
Here is Antarctica by Madeleine Dunphy
This book shows us lots of animals that survive in the cold in Antarctica. The reader gets to learn about both water and land creatures. The animals who live on the land, live in snow year round. These include three types of penguins, leopard seals and the southern giant petrels (海燕).

One grandma in Japan went above and beyond to connect with her grandchildren. Taechan, a woman in her 70s, began making Gundam models-plastic armor (盔甲) suits inspired by the anime Mobile Suit Gundam. Her amazing results impressed her grandchildren and sparked an unexpected passion.
Gundam suits are sold as kits by Bandai. They’re sometimes called “Gunpla”, which combines the words “Gundam” and “plastic model”. Despite being sold in box sets, building these suits of armor can be complicated and include numerous tiny pieces that the person has to fit together. Taechan now documents her builds in YouTube videos.
During these recordings, you see her work at a desk with the manual of illustrated instructions open in front of her. Each page includes dozens of detailed steps. Taechan, however, is a patient and diligent worker and takes her time completing each step with care. Her dedication to completing these models really shows in the final product.
When Taechan shared her Gundam results and the reason for making them on Twitter, thousands of people reacted to her story. Those who are familiar with the process of making these plastic suits were surprised that Taechan put in such effort, especially considering her health condition. Many also found it endearing that she went the extra mile to connect with her grandchildren. Best of all, Taechan seems to have found a new hobby for herself, too!
Even though her hands shake due to chronic (慢性的) illness, she managed to make many impressive plastic suits that wowed her grandchildren.
4. Why did Taechan make Gundam Models?
A. To kill time. B. To cure her shaking hands.
C. To bond with her grandchildren. D. To become an Internet celebrity.

C. Healthy and determined. D. Generous and hopeful.
6. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?

B. People offered Taechan advice on making Gundam models.
C. Taechan’s health condition stopped her making good models.
D. Taechan’s effort to connect with her grandchildren was admired.

Richard Croft had never struggled to feed his three dogs before, but when he was forced to stop working after being diagnosed with cancer, their monthly food bill was difficult to keep up with. He is one of dozens of people who have turned to the Blue Cross pet food bank in Grimsby, set up in June to help people in the area struggling to feed their pets amid the cost of living crisis.
Stocked (提供货物) entirely by donations from the local community, there is a steady stream of people stopping by to pick up food for their dogs and cats every Tuesday and Thursday. In a two-hour period last Tuesday, the food bank helped 76 animals from 32 families.
“Week on week we’re seeing more and more people. As fast as the food is coming in, it’s literally touching the shelf and going back out again,” said Cristina Pool, who runs the service alongside her fellow veterinary (兽医) nurse, Hannah Cardey.
“A lot of people come and they actually get quite emotional,” said Cardey. “Some people feel a bit embarrassed that it’s come to the point where they can’t feed their pet. For some people their pet is like their child, so they feel quite ashamed.”
The origins of the food bank started in January, when staff at the Grimsby Blue Cross animal hospital noticed an increase in emaciated (憔悴的) animals coming in for treatment who clearly were not getting the right nutrition. “There was a particular one, a really emaciated boxer dog. So she was one of the cases that made us think, there really is a need for this,” said Pool.
After first operating out of a cupboard, the food bank is now based in a small building next to the animal hospital, and the Blue Cross is rolling out the pet food bank plan nationally.
8. What information can we get about the Blue Cross pet food bank?
A. It is run by volunteers. B. It was set up in January.
C. It distributes pet food twice a week. D. It relies on partly donations from the local community.
9. How do some people feel when they get pet food?
A. Excited. B. Guilty. C. Grateful. D. Anxious.
10. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 5?
A. The cruel conditions of some pets.
B. The function of the Blue Cross pet food bank.
C. The reason for opening the Blue Cross pet food bank.
D. The present situation of the Blue Cross pet food bank.
11. What is the future of pet food bank like?
A. Uncertain. B. Promising. C. Risky. D. Upsetting.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了格里姆斯比蓝十字宠物食品银行创办的背景和原因。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Stocked (提供货物) entirely by donations from the local community, there is a steady stream of people stopping by to pick up food for their dogs and cats every Tuesday and Thursday. (完全由当地社区捐赠的库存，每周二和周四都有源源不断的人停下来为他们的狗和猫取食物)”可知，蓝十字宠物食品银行每周分发两次宠物食品。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“For some people their pet is like their child, so they feel quite ashamed. (对一些人来说，他们的宠物就像他们的孩子，所以他们感到很羞愧)”可知，有些人得到宠物食品时会感觉内疚。故选B。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“The origins of the food bank started in January, when staff at the Grimsby Blue Cross animal hospital noticed an increase in emaciated (憔悴) animals coming in for treatment who clearly were not getting the right nutrition. “There was a particular one, a really emaciated boxer dog. So she was one of the cases that made us think, there really is a need for this,” said Pool. (食品银行的起源始于今年1月，当时格里姆斯比蓝十字动物医院的工作人员注意到，前来接受治疗的瘦弱动物越来越多，这些动物显然没有得到正确的营养。“有一只特别的，非常瘦弱的拳师犬。所以她的案例让我们思考，确实有必要这样做。)”可知，第五段主要讲宠物食品银行开办的原因。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“After first operating out of a cupboard, the food bank is now based in a small building next to the animal hospital, and the Blue Cross is rolling out the pet food bank plan nationally. (食品银行最初在一个橱柜里运作，现在设在动物医院旁边的一栋小大楼里，蓝十字正在全国范围内推广宠物食品银行计划)”可推知，宠物食品银行的未来是很有前途的。故选B。
D
Most stars are invisible against the overhead glare from city lights. At best, there is only a bit of the Milky Way to see: the combined radiance of a hundred billion stars dims (暗淡) to near-nothingness by bright streetlamps and storefronts.
This is light pollution-human-generated light cast up into the heavens-causing the sky itself to glow and washing out the stars. Astronomers have known for years the situation is bad for observing stars, but it also has real and negative effects on the well-being of many living things-plants, animals and even human beings. More than 80 percent of humanity is affected by light pollution, their view of the skies being stolen away.
All this extra light at night has a large effect on the life under it. Researchers have shown that it has negative impacts on many animals and plants; light pollution disturbs the great migrations of birds, the delicate blossoming of flowers, and even the courtship (求偶) of fireflies, etc. It affects humans as well, possibly causing insomnia (失眠) among many other health problems.
So what can we do about our brightening skies? There is a lot already happening. Groups like the International Dark Sky Association, or IDA, advocate not for more lighting but for more intelligent lighting; smarter street lights that concentrate their light downward is one example. Because these lights offer more efficient light, they save energy, too, eventually paying for themselves. The IDA offers advice on how to contact local authorities to fix better equipment and create ordinances to lower pollution. Many cities in the United States and other countries are certified Dark Sky Communities (DSC), ones that have shown “exceptional devotion to the preservation of the night sky” by discouraging wasteful lighting practices.
Many people don’t even know that they-and their children-are losing this cosmic (宇宙的) experience just over their heads. We need the dark night sky, and it’s up to all of us to make sure it’s still there every time the sun goes down.
12. How does the author organise Paragraph 3?
A. By listing figures. B. By giving examples.
C. By following the order of time. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
13. What does the underlined word “ordinances” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Surveys. B. Jobs. C. Wonders. D. Regulations.
14. What is stressed in the last paragraph?
A. The importance of the dark night sky.
B. The urgency of having cosmic experience.
C. The necessity of solving the problem of light pollution.
D. Our children’s responsibility to fight light pollution.
15. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Light Pollution Is Dimming Our View of the Sky
B. IDA Is Advocating Much Smarter Street Lights
C. DSC Has Shown Devotion to Preserving the Night Sky
D. The Applications of Intelligent Lighting Are Worldwide
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章讲述了研究发现光污染让星空愈发暗淡，而且情况越来越槽。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“All this extra light at night has a large effect on the life under it. Researchers have shown that it has negative impacts on many animals and plants; light pollution disturbs the great migrations of birds, the delicate blossoming of flowers, and even the courtship (求偶) of fireflies, etc. It affects humans as well, possibly causing insomnia (失眠) among many other health problems. (所有这些夜间额外的光线对光线下的生物有很大的影响。研究人员已经证明，它对许多动物和植物有负面影响；光污染干扰了鸟类的大迁徙，影响了娇嫩的花朵盛开，甚至影响了萤火虫的求偶，等等。它也会影响人类，可能会导致失眠和其他许多健康问题。)”可知，本段主要讲光污染对生物造成的危害，并通过举例子的方式来说明这个观点。故选B。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文“The IDA offers advice on how to contact local authorities (国际开发协会就如何联系地方当局提供建议)”中“local authorities”的提示可知，划线词所在的句子意思是“国际开发协会就如何联系地方当局修理更好的设备和制定法规以降低污染提供了建议。”，此处“ordinances”的含义是：规章制度。故选D。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Many people don’t even know that they-and their children-are losing this cosmic(宇宙的)experience just over their heads. We need the dark night sky, and it’s up to all of us to make sure it’s still there every time the sun goes down. (许多人甚至不知道他们和他们的孩子正在失去头顶上的这种宇宙体验。我们需要漆黑的夜空，我们所有人都有责任确保每次太阳下山时它仍然在那里。)”可知，最后一段强调解决光污染问题的必要性。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。阅读全文以及文章第一段“Most stars are invisible against the overhead glare from city lights. At best, there is only a bit of the Milky Way to see: the combined radiance of a hundred billion stars dims(暗淡)to near-nothingness by bright streetlamps and storefronts. (大多数星星在城市灯光的照耀下是看不见的。往好了说，我们只能看到银河系的一小部分：在明亮的路灯和店面的映衬下，1000亿颗恒星的光芒加在一起，变得几乎为零。)”可知，本文主要讲述了由于强光的照射，大都数恒星我们都看不见了。由此可知，A项：Light Pollution Is Dimming Our View of the Sky (光污染使我们的天空变得暗淡。)为最佳标题。故选A。

● Write on both sides of the paper.
It may seem as if simply writing on both sides of a piece of paper is not helpful, but in fact, it can help a lot.____16____ If you don’t want to write on both sides of the paper right away, that’s alright. Consider keeping a box of the paper that you’ve only used one side of, so you can easily have the paper for when you need it.
● Use old newspaper to wrap gifts.

● Send e-mails instead of traditional mail.
Traditional, posted mails require a lot of paper. There are also some other disadvantages to traditional mail. E-mails have a few advantages, including being delivered much quicker than traditional mail, the ability to be sent to one person or a larger group, and being able to send them at any time.____20____
A. Taking care of the Earth is everyone’s job.
B. You could use note app or word processor to do this.
C. Using old newspapers is a great, eco-friendly way to wrap gifts.
D. You could also text or call someone as opposed to sending traditional mail.

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
18-year-old Paul often visited his 80-year-old grandma Edith. He’d start his day early and leave for his grandma’s house first in the morning.
Because his family was poor, Paul walked nearly six miles daily to see Edith, bringing her breakfast and chatting with her. Edith lived alone and didn’t want to move out of her beloved house to live with Paul’s family.
She was touched by Paul’s care for her. And she decided she’d pass her house and heirloom(传家宝)jewelry down to him when she died.
Sixty-year-old Stephen was Edith’s neighbour. Whenever he saw Paul came, he’d sit silently near his motorbike in his yard and listen to them chatting joyfully. It often reminded him of his only grandchild, who was lost in an accident with his parents on his birthday. After that, Stephen lived alone. He felt an unusual affection for Paul.
One day, on his way to Edith’s house, Paul saw Stephen struggling to move his motorbike. He rushed to help him. “Thank you,son,” Stephen said. “Do you live nearby? I often see you here.”
After Paul explained, Stephen was shocked that Paul would walk so far daily. Then Stephen took out the keys to the motorbike, which he had planned to give to his grandchild as a birthday gift. “Here! I was planning to sell it. Now, I decide to give it to you for free,” Stephen said. Paul refused, but he insisted.
Paul gratefully took the keys and further chatted with Stephen. He learned Stephen lived a poor life and made a living by driving tourists around using his own car. The car was old. He guessed it would be useless in a year or two.
After chatting, Paul went to visit his grandmother. When he left, he waved at Stephen as he rode past his house. The following day, Paul reached Edith’s house earlier by motorbike. He was shocked when finding his grandma lying on the floor in a dead faint. He immediately called an ambulance.

Days later, Paul bought Stephen a new car by selling the jewelry from his late grandma.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
“If you had arrived five minutes late, you could have lost her,” the doctor told Paul. It made Paul so grateful to Stephen for his motorbike. Soon, Edith recovered. Paul kept visiting her and occasionally met Stephen. Two years later, old Edith died peacefully. And she indeed left her house and jewelry to Paul. When Paul cleared her house, he visited Stephen. He felt sad to learn Stephen’s car was no longer working and that he couldn’t make ends meet. Paul thought that he must do something to help Stephen.
Days later, Paul bought Stephen a new car by selling the jewelry from his late grandma. When seeing a new car standing outside his house, Stephen froze in shock. He didn’t expect Paul would be so nice to him. Paul approached him and said. “Your help once saved my grandma. I’m sure she’s happy, watching us from above now!” Tears welled up in Stephen’s eyes. Paul handed him the keys to the new car and hugged him. Paul didn’t sell the house. He often visited the place and was happy to see Stephen back on his feet again.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Paul经常看望奶奶Edith，奶奶的邻居Stephen很喜欢Paul，Paul让他想起自己去世的孙子，他们一起交谈，在得知Paul每天要走很远的路来看奶奶后，Stephen将摩托车送给Paul。一天Paul来看奶奶，结果发现她倒在地上。

②由第二段首句“几天后，保罗卖了他已故祖母的珠宝给斯蒂芬买了一辆新车。”可知，第二段可描写Stephen看到新车之后的反应以及Paul解释为他买车的原因。
2.续写线索：Paul感激Stephen——祖母去世——Paul为Stephen入不敷出感到难过——决定帮助Stephen——看到新车，Stephen吓呆了——Paul解释原因——Stephen热泪盈眶——Paul拥抱Stephen——Paul很高兴Stephen又站起来了
