B
Four years ago when I was a boy of 11，I got into the biggest trouble as a kid. It was a Saturday morning. Both my parents were out，leaving me and my 10－month－old sister home alone. Anyway，my sister was still asleep in her room. In fact I had the house to myself. I decided to do some drawing. Soon I gave up. Nothing was on TV，so I felt bored and touched the candles on the shelf…I had an idea! What would happen if I set fire to some kitchen paper Well，of course it went on fire，but it wasn't the tiny flame(火苗) I'd expected，and I couldn't blow it out. I threw it on the floor，and then I got my dad's boots(靴子) and stamped it out．
But there was a huge hole left on the floor. When my mum came home later，she smelt the smoke immediately. She dropped the shopping bag，luckily for me，over the hole. I thought this meant she would never see it. However，after running round the house checking for a fire，she of course picked up the bag and saw the hole. Next I was grounded(关禁闭) for months. Even worse though，the hole was still there，reminding me of what I did.

【解析】这篇短文讲述作者11岁的时候闯的祸。一次作者的父母都外出了，他和他10个月大的妹妹在家。作者在厨房里烧纸，虽然火被他踩灭了，但是地板上留下了一个洞。
26.细节理解题。根据短文的开头Four years ago when I was a boy of 11，I got into the biggest trouble as a kid可知，四年前作者11岁，因此他现在是15岁。故应选C。
27.词义猜测题。根据划线短语所在的上下文of course it went on fire， but it wasn't the tiny flame(火苗) I'd expected， and I couldn't blow it out. I threw it on the floor， and then I got my dad's boots(靴子) and stamped it out．可知，作者在厨房里烧纸，火苗很大，他用他的靴子想把火苗踩灭。由文意和句中的boots可知，应该是把火踩灭，故应选B。
28.细节理解题。根据文意可知，作者和自己10个月大的妹妹在家，他一开始是想画画，后来看电视，但电视上也没什么东西，所以他就去厨房烧纸，火苗起来了，他又把或踩灭。后来他的妈妈回来了，闻到了烟味，发现了地上烧的洞，作者被关了禁闭。因此D选项符合文意。
29.细节理解题。根据短文中of course it went on fire， but it wasn't the tiny flame(火苗) I'd expected， and I couldn't blow it out. I threw it on the floor， and then I got my dad's boots(靴子) and stamped it out可知，是作者最后把或踩灭了。故应选A。
30.主旨大意题。短文的开头Four years ago when I was a boy of 11，I got into the biggest trouble as a kid告诉我们，这篇短文是讲述作者11岁的时候闯的祸。故应选C。
点睛：这是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者小时候自己在家闯的一个祸。短文内容简单，容易理解。题目设置包括细节理解、词义猜测和主旨大意。短文的开头第一句话就是文章的中心句，原文中的got into the biggest trouble与选项C中made a big trouble同义，故C是正确答案。词义猜测题需要我们根据上下文的情境进行猜测，短文讲述了作者在厨房里烧纸，火苗起来了，作者想要把火苗灭掉，句中有boots靴子，所以这个短语的意思应该是踩灭。
C
When Vivienne Harr was 8 years old, she saw a photo she would never forget. It was a photo of two young boys carrying large, heavy rocks on their backs. They were the same age as Vivienne. But they did not have the same freedom(自由) and opportunities(机会) that she had.
In some parts of the world, children have to work hard and they can't go to school. Vivienne wanted to change this. "I want all kids to be able to go to school and play," said Vivienne, "I want them to be happy."
To help raise money for children like the two boys in the photo, Vivienne started a lemonade stand(柠檬汽水摊位) near her home in Marin County, California. She promised to work every day for a year, rain or shine. "Sometimes, it was hard for me, when the weather was bad or I wasn't feeling well," said Vivienne. "But I knew that some children were having a harder time than I was."
Vivienne's goal was to raise $100,000 in 365 days. On Day 175, she reached her goal. But that didn't stop Vivienne from working. With the help of her family, she started Make a Stand. The company now puts Vivienne's lemonade into bottles and sells it in 130 stores around the US.

Nowadays plenty of kids are at home alone after school. Are you one of them Kids who often take care of themselves are called “latchkey kids”.
This nickname got its start in the 1940s. Many men fought in the Second World War and women had to take jobs in factories to keep the country going. With both parents away, lots of kids went home to empty houses after school. Latchkey kids wore house keys around their necks and they used the keys to open doors.
Today, it’s common for both parents to work. As a result, a new generation of kids is spending some time alone after school. It becomes necessary（必要的） for both parents and kids to make some rules. There are a lot of questions to talk about:
■ Should you call your mum or dad as soon as you get home
■ Should you do your homework first
■ Can you watch TV or play computer games If so, for how long
■ What can you eat if you want a snack
■ Can friends come over If so, how many
...
As latchkey kids, knowing how to stay safe is just as important as following the family rules. Talk about the following questions with your parents:
■ What should you do when the phone rings
■ What should you do if someone knocks at the door
■ What should you do if someone breaks into the house
■ What should you do if you cut yourself while cooking
You may feel ▲ when you are at home alone. Don’t worry. Keeping yourself busy is helpful. There are many things that can make you feel your home alone time go quickly:

Students Should Learn to Look after Themselves
As a student, like some other students, I don’t need to think about what to eat or drink every day. I don’t need to buy clothes or do any housework. My parents always manage everything for me.I think they have done too much for me. Now I am not a little child any longer. I want to do some simple work to help them at home, such as tidying up my bedroom and washing my clothes. I think they will be pleased with me.
Let’s learn to look after ourselves from now on!

Four years ago when I was a boy of 11，I got into the biggest trouble as a kid. It was a Saturday morning. Both my parents were out，leaving me and my 10－month－old sister home alone. Anyway，my sister was still asleep in her room. In fact I had the house to myself. I decided to do some drawing. Soon I gave up. Nothing was on TV，so I felt bored and touched the candles on the shelf…I had an idea! What would happen if I set fire to some kitchen paper Well，of course it went on fire，but it wasn't the tiny flame(火苗) I'd expected，and I couldn't blow it out. I threw it on the floor，and then I got my dad's boots(靴子) and stamped it out．
But there was a huge hole left on the floor. When my mum came home later，she smelt the smoke immediately. She dropped the shopping bag，luckily for me，over the hole. I thought this meant she would never see it. However，after running round the house checking for a fire，she of course picked up the bag and saw the hole. Next I was grounded(关禁闭) for months. Even worse though，the hole was still there，reminding me of what I did.

When Vivienne Harr was 8 years old, she saw a photo she would never forget. It was a photo of two young boys carrying large, heavy rocks on their backs. They were the same age as Vivienne. But they did not have the same freedom(自由) and opportunities(机会) that she had.
In some parts of the world, children have to work hard and they can't go to school. Vivienne wanted to change this. "I want all kids to be able to go to school and play," said Vivienne, "I want them to be happy."
To help raise money for children like the two boys in the photo, Vivienne started a lemonade stand(柠檬汽水摊位) near her home in Marin County, California. She promised to work every day for a year, rain or shine. "Sometimes, it was hard for me, when the weather was bad or I wasn't feeling well," said Vivienne. "But I knew that some children were having a harder time than I was."
Vivienne's goal was to raise $100,000 in 365 days. On Day 175, she reached her goal. But that didn't stop Vivienne from working. With the help of her family, she started Make a Stand.

Nowadays plenty of kids are at home alone after school. Are you one of them Kids who often take care of themselves are called “latchkey kids”.
This nickname got its start in the 1940s. Many men fought in the Second World War and women had to take jobs in factories to keep the country going. With both parents away, lots of kids went home to empty houses after school. Latchkey kids wore house keys around their necks and they used the keys to open doors.
Today, it’s common for both parents to work. As a result, a new generation of kids is spending some time alone after school. It becomes necessary（必要的） for both parents and kids to make some rules. There are a lot of questions to talk about:
■ Should you call your mum or dad as soon as you get home
■ Should you do your homework first
■ Can you watch TV or play computer games If so, for how long
■ What can you eat if you want a snack
■ Can friends come over If so, how many
...
As latchkey kids, knowing how to stay safe is just as important as following the family rules. Talk about the following questions with your parents:
■ What should you do when the phone rings
■ What should you do if someone knocks at the door
■ What should you do if someone breaks into the house
■ What should you do if you cut yourself while cooking
You may feel ▲ when you are at home alone. Don’t worry. Keeping yourself busy is helpful. There are many things that can make you feel your home alone time go quickly:
■ Read a magazine.
■ Write an email.
■ Phone a friend.

Over just a few days in January, millions of people across China were racking their brains (绞尽脑汁). They were taking part in live-streaming (直播) quiz shows on several apps. Some of these apps include Chongdingdahui, Huajiao Zhibo , Xigua Shipin and Douyin.
Different from TV quiz shows like Happy Dictionary (《开心辞典》) and Who’s Still Standing (《一站到底》), anyone with a smartphone or tablet can participate (参加) in the live-streaming shows every day, communicating with other players at the same time.
The shows have hosts to present the questions. While the participants give their answers, they help to liven up the show by telling jokes or giving some background for the question. Each online player has 10 seconds to answer a question, with each show taking around 20 to 30 minutes.
Prizes ranging (在……范围内变动) between 100,000 yuan to 5 million yuan are being offered, with the winners sharing the prize money at the end. Depending on the total amount of prize money and the number of winners, players can win prizes as small as 1 yuan and as high as more than 40,000 yuan.
The questions are chosen from a wide range of topics, including literature (文学), geography, mathematics and biology, among many others. For example, players may be asked how many legs crabs have, or what Australia’s national flower is.
To draw new users, the apps offer “redo cards (复活卡)” to new players, as well as to those who have invited new players to join. These cards allow players who give wrong answers an extra chance to compete on the show.

1. How can we take part in the live-streaming quiz shows,
