Benjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age. But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made from camel’s hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush.
The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the cat began to look ragged（蓬乱）. His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.
The cat’s lot was about to improve. That year, one of Benjamin’s cousins, Mr. Pennington, came to visit. He was impressed with Benjamin’s drawings. When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings（版画） by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen. In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin’s parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit.
In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape(风景) painting. William Williams, a well-known painter, came to see him work. Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But he later said,＂Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night.＂While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.

A Beijing-based gene firm on Monday announced the debut (首次亮相) of the world’s first, cloned wild article wolf via video. 100 days after its birth in a Beijing lab. Experts said its birth pioneers the breeding of more rare and endangered animals through cloning technology.
“To save the endangered animal, we started the research cooperation with Harbin Polarland on cloning the arctic wolf in 2020. After two years of painstaking efforts, the arctic wolf was cloned successfully. It is the first case of its kind in the world,” Mi Jidong, the company’s general manager of the Beijing-based Sinogene Biotechnology Co., said at a press conference in Beijing.
Born on June 10, the wolf, named Maya, is in very good health. Its donor cell came from the skin sample of a wild female arctic wolf, which had been introduced from Canada to Harbin Polarland. The cloning of the arctic wolf was accomplished by constructing 137 new embryos (胚胎), followed by the transfer of 85 embryos to the uteri of seven dogs, of which one was born as a healthy wolf-Maya, Zhao noted. The selection of a dog as Maya’s surrogate (代孕) was made because dogs share genetic ancestry with ancient wolves and it’s more likely to succeed through cloning technology, experts said.
He Zhengming, the head of Chinese Experimental Animal Resources Research Institute for Food and Drug Control, said that the cloned animals still have the ability to reproduce if they have intact fertilized eggs. The cloning technology can copy all genetic information for selective breeding, and in this way, it diversifies the population of endangered animals.
From the world’s first mammal clone “Dolly”, cloning technology has provided the possibility to diversify the populations of some species such as cattle, pigs and horses. When endangered species in some places are identified, cloning of cells preserved from freezing technologies could also generate new life, experts said.
However, some raised controversy relating to the cloned arctic wolf. Sun Ouanhui, a scientist from the World Animal Protection organization, insisted that cloning technology has made great progress since its birth, but it is still being perfected and in the exploratory stage of research, and there are many technical and ethical issues that need to be tackled and treated with caution.
8. What is the significance of the first cloned wild arctic wolf’s birth
A. To produce more endangered species through cloning.
B. To help the scientists win an award.
C. To promote the research cooperation.
D. To increase the profit of wildlife reserves.
9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3
A. Maya is the first cloned arctic wolf in the world.
B. Wild arctic wolves are easily available in Harbin Polarland.
C. There is no scientific support for choosing a dog as Maya’s surrogate.
D. Researchers experienced trial and error to achieve the successful birth of Maya.
10. What’s the author’s attitude toward cloning technology
A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Opposed.
11. Which is the best title of the passage
A. The Research on the Rare and Endangered Animals
B The Debut of the World’s 1st Cloned Wild Arctic Wolf
C. The Beginning of the Cloning Technology Application
D. The Conservation of Endangered Wildlife through Cloning Technology
D
I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old .It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source(来源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read ,using different voices ,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it !It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books .
Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.
As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven(避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy(盗版行为) and 1 think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
12. Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child
A. Cooperative. B. Uneasy. C. Inseparable. D. Casual.
13. What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Pleasure from working in the library.
B. Joy of reading passed on in the family.
C. Wonderment from acting out the stories.
D. A closer bond developed with the readers.
14. What does the author call on other writers to do
A. Sponsor book fairs. B. Write for social media.
C. Support libraries. D. Purchase her novels.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Reading: A Source of Knowledge
B My Idea about writing
C. Library: A Haven for the Young
D. My Love of the Library

Asad was a 13-year-old boy who was very honest and hardworking. Recently, he had entered a new school, so he had no friends yet. On Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin’s wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn’t get up on time as usual.
At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing.
Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there, among them was Fahad. He was one of the richest kids in his class, but he was a very arrogant(傲慢的)boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn’t know much about Fahad.
When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch, Fahad laughed a lot and said, “I knew you were a loser, maybe a beggar ” Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation. He didn’t answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.
When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it up and recognized it as Fahad’s, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punished Fahad.

These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen. In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin’s parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit.
In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape(风景) painting. William Williams, a well-known painter, came to see him work. Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But he later said,＂Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night.＂While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.

【分析】试题分析：本文属于记叙文，主要讲了美国绘画之父Benjamin在决定要成为一名
画家之前的经历。
【4题详解】
C 中心思想题，文章主要介绍了美国绘画之父Benjamin在决定成为一名画家之前
的生活经历，故选C.
【5题详解】
推理判断题，此句是第三段的首句，所以可根据第三段的大意来推断这句话想要告
诉我们什么，这段主要讲了Benjamin的一个表哥由于被Benjamin的绘画才能所打
动，所以就送给他一些颜料和一些真正的画笔，所以划线句“猫的境地将要得到改
善”是表明Benjamin很快有了真正的画笔，所以不用剪猫的毛来做画笔了，故选
D.
【6题详解】
B细节理解题，根据最后一段“Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings”, 可知Pennington为了帮助Benjamin培养绘画天赋，给他提供了一些绘画材料，故选B.
【7题详解】
D细节理解题，根据最后一段“While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist, 可知：这两本书帮助Benjamin坚定了自己成为一名画家的决心，故选D.
【名师点睛】
本文后两个小题考查了细节题。在完成细节题时，要特别注意排除干扰项。如小题23中的D项“He taught him how to make engravings”属于“偷梁换柱”类干扰项，根据第三段第五句“He also sent six engravings by an artist”可知“这些版画是Pennington送给Benjamin的”，并非是Pennington教Benjamin如何画版画，说明D项明显错误。
干扰项的设置方法通常有以下几种方式：
1. 张冠李戴。命题者把文章作者的观点与他人的观点混淆起来，题干问的是作者的观点，选项中出现的却是他人的观点；或者题干问的是他人的观点，却把作者的观点放到选项中去。
2. 偷梁换柱。干扰项用了与原文相似的句型结构和大部分相似的词汇，却在不易引人注意的地方换了几个词汇，造成句意的改变。
3. 无中生有。干扰项往往是生活的基本常识和普遍接受的观点，但在原文中并无相关的信息支持点，这种选项的设置往往与问题的设问毫不相干。
4. 以偏概全。考生在做猜测文章中心思想、给文章添加标题或判断推理题时，往往会犯以偏概全的错误。产生这类错误的原因是考生受思维定势的影响或考虑不周，以局部代替整体。其具体表现为合理关联与不合理关联、准确概括与不准确概括之间的错位。不合理关联就是表层理解与深层理解相混淆。表层理解是对文章中客观事实的感知和记忆，往往是文章直接表述的结论；深层理解则是对文章中的客观事实进行逻辑推理、总结或概括后得出的结论。不准确概括是指不能准确地按题目要求概括或提取文中的表层或深层信息。

A Beijing-based gene firm on Monday announced the debut (首次亮相) of the world’s first, cloned wild article wolf via video. 100 days after its birth in a Beijing lab. Experts said its birth pioneers the breeding of more rare and endangered animals through cloning technology.
“To save the endangered animal, we started the research cooperation with Harbin Polarland on cloning the arctic wolf in 2020. After two years of painstaking efforts, the arctic wolf was cloned successfully. It is the first case of its kind in the world,” Mi Jidong, the company’s general manager of the Beijing-based Sinogene Biotechnology Co., said at a press conference in Beijing.
Born on June 10, the wolf, named Maya, is in very good health. Its donor cell came from the skin sample of a wild female arctic wolf, which had been introduced from Canada to Harbin Polarland. The cloning of the arctic wolf was accomplished by constructing 137 new embryos (胚胎), followed by the transfer of 85 embryos to the uteri of seven dogs, of which one was born as a healthy wolf-Maya, Zhao noted. The selection of a dog as Maya’s surrogate (代孕) was made because dogs share genetic ancestry with ancient wolves and it’s more likely to succeed through cloning technology, experts said.
He Zhengming, the head of Chinese Experimental Animal Resources Research Institute for Food and Drug Control, said that the cloned animals still have the ability to reproduce if they have intact fertilized eggs. The cloning technology can copy all genetic information for selective breeding, and in this way, it diversifies the population of endangered animals.
From the world’s first mammal clone “Dolly”, cloning technology has provided the possibility to diversify the populations of some species such as cattle, pigs and horses. When endangered species in some places are identified, cloning of cells preserved from freezing technologies could also generate new life, experts said.
However, some raised controversy relating to the cloned arctic wolf. Sun Ouanhui, a scientist from the World Animal Protection organization, insisted that cloning technology has made great progress since its birth, but it is still being perfected and in the exploratory stage of research, and there are many technical and ethical issues that need to be tackled and treated with caution.
8. What is the significance of the first cloned wild arctic wolf’s birth
A. To produce more endangered species through cloning.
B. To help the scientists win an award.
C To promote the research cooperation.
D. To increase the profit of wildlife reserves.
9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3
A. Maya is the first cloned arctic wolf in the world.
B. Wild arctic wolves are easily available in Harbin Polarland.
C. There is no scientific support for choosing a dog as Maya’s surrogate.
D. Researchers experienced trial and error to achieve the successful birth of Maya.
10. What’s the author’s attitude toward cloning technology
A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Opposed.
11. Which is the best title of the passage
A The Research on the Rare and Endangered Animals
B. The Debut of the World’s 1st Cloned Wild Arctic Wolf
C. The Beginning of the Cloning Technology Application
D. The Conservation of Endangered Wildlife through Cloning Technology
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了世界上第一只克隆的野生动物狼的相关情况，以及其带来的影响。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Experts said its birth pioneers the breeding of more rare and endangered animals through cloning technology. (专家表示，它的诞生开创了通过克隆技术培育更多珍稀濒危动物的先河。)”可知，该北极狼克隆的成功为培育更多珍稀濒危动物开创先河，因此其重要意义也在于此。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段二三句“The cloning of the arctic wolf was accomplished by constructing 137 new embryos (胚胎), followed by the transfer of 85 embryos to the uteri of seven dogs, of which one was born as a healthy wolf-Maya, Zhao noted. (赵指出，北极狼的克隆是通过构建137个新胚胎完成的，随后将85个胚胎移植到7只狗的子宫中，其中一只出生时是健康的狼——玛雅。)”可以看出该克隆过程很艰辛，85个胚胎才产出一只健康的狼，即成功前科学家经历了实验和失败。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“When endangered species in some places are identified, cloning of cells preserved from freezing technologies could also generate new life, experts said. (专家表示，当一些地方的濒危物种被发现时，通过冷冻技术保存的细胞克隆也可以产生新的生命。)”可知，作者呈现了克隆技术对濒危物种的价值；根据最后一段第一句“However, some raised controversy relating to the cloned arctic wolf. (然而，一些人提出了与克隆北极狼有关的争议。)”可知，作者呈现一些对克隆技术的质疑，因此可以看出作者本人对这一技术持客观态度。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“A Beijing-based gene firm on Monday announced the debut (首次亮相) of the world’s first cloned wild article wolf via video. (北京一家基因公司周一通过视频宣布，世界上第一只克隆的野生动物狼首次亮相。)”可以看出本文主要围绕这第一只克隆狼展开。故选B项。

I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old .It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source(来源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read ,using different voices ,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it !It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books .
Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.
As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven(避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy(盗版行为) and 1 think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
12. Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child
A. Cooperative. B. Uneasy. C. Inseparable. D. Casual.
13. What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to

D. A closer bond developed with the readers.
14. What does the author call on other writers to do
A. Sponsor book fairs. B. Write for social media.
C. Support libraries. D. Purchase her novels.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Reading: A Source of Knowledge

C. Library: A Haven for the Young
D. My Love of the Library
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. D

考查不定冠词。句意：8月30日在西安展出的一种赤陶土文物，有121种，可追溯到秦代。分析句子可知，空格处缺少冠词，泛指“一次”，后面的名词exhibition开头发音是元音，应使用不定冠词an，位于句首首字母大写，故填An。
【39题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：8月30日在西安展出的一种赤陶土文物，有121种，可追溯到秦代。本句已有谓语displays且无连词，动词date用非谓语形式，date back from (追溯到) 不能用于被动语态，只能用主动表被动，date用现在分词形式。故填dating。
【40题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：展出的雕塑上的颜色包括所谓的“中国紫色”。动词include后接宾语从句，从句缺乏主语，意为“……的东西”，用连接代词what。故填what。
【41题详解】
考查连词以及固定搭配。句意：它不是天然颜料，而是人造化合物。固定搭配not...but... (不是……而是……)。故填but。
【42题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：大量生产这种神秘的颜色是昂贵的，因此使用中国紫色被认为是奢侈和地位的象征。此处缺乏谓语，根据前后文，可知时态为一般过去时，主语the use of Chinese purple和谓语动词consider是被动关系，consider用一般过去时的被动语态，主语the use of Chinese purple是抽象意义，谓语用单数形式。故填was considered。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：然而，这种颜色直到20世纪90年代才成功地保存在那些著名的士兵身上，当时发明了一种乳液用于刚出土的雕塑的表面。分析句子可知，空格处缺少介词和前面的动词apply构成固定搭配apply to (应用于……，涂抹在……)，故填to。
【44题详解】
考查时态。句意：自从这些兵马俑首次向公众展示以来，就引起了人们极大的关注，希望将来能发现更多的彩色陶俑。此处主句缺乏谓语，“since +从句(一般过去时)，主句用现在完成时”，主语The warriors是复数，谓语复数形式。故填have drawn。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：自从这些兵马俑首次向公众展示以来，就引起了人们极大的关注，希望将来能发现更多的彩色陶俑。此处用副词hopefully作状语，修饰后面的句子。故填hopefully。

47. 读后续写
Asad was a 13-year-old boy who was very honest and hardworking. Recently, he had entered a new school, so he had no friends yet. On Monday morning, he was nearly late for school. The night before, his family attended his cousin’s wedding and reached home late, which was why he couldn’t get up on time as usual.
At school, Asad could not pay attention to anything and wanted the bell to ring so that he could buy something to eat. After a few hours, when the bell rang, Asad quickly opened his schoolbag to find his money, but just then he remembered that he had left for school in a hurry in the morning and forgotten to take money. He looked under his books, hoping to find some money but there was nothing.
Not knowing what to do, he walked out of the classroom and sat on a bench in front of the canteen. He saw a few of his classmates there, among them was Fahad. He was one of the richest kids in his class, but he was a very arrogant(傲慢的)boy who thought everyone else was a loser. But as Asad was new, he didn’t know much about Fahad.
When he went towards Fahad and asked if he could borrow some money for his lunch, Fahad laughed a lot and said, “I knew you were a loser, maybe a beggar ” Fahad laughed out so loud that other kids also heard and made fun of the situation. He didn’t answer Fahad, and slowly walked back towards an empty bench.
When he reached the bench, he noticed something lying near it. It was a wallet. He picked it up and recognized it as Fahad’s, as he remembered Fahad showing it to his friends and telling that his uncle bought it for him from the UK. There was quite a lot of money inside for a kid.
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punished Fahad.

Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving back ”

【答案】范文
At first, Asad wanted to keep it a secret and punished Fahad. At least he could afford the lunch now. However, another voice popped up, urging him to give it back to Fahad, which made him feel torn. “I should never keep the wallet at the cost of my honesty, and Fahad would be extremely embarrassed without any money in the presence of so many classmates!”Asad convinced himself. Once he made up his mind, he accelerated his pace and caught him up. “Fahad, it’s your wallet and I found it on the bench.” Taking over the wallet, Fahad stared into Asad’s eyes with a puzzled look written on his face.
Then Fahad said, “Why are you giving it back ” He even looked into his wallet, obviously doubtful about Asads act. Calmly and patiently Asad explained, “I had originally wanted to keep it secret as a punishment for your arrogance, but being honest matters more to me.” Hearing what Asad had said, Fahad felt his face burning with shame. He bent, thanking Asad for saving him from the embarrassing situation and apologizing to the classmates around for calling them losers. “And the lunch is on me. You all are my friends!”Fahad announced.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Asad是一个13岁的男孩，他非常诚实和勤奋，这天他忘了带钱，本想找班上最富有的孩子Fahad借钱，但是被拒绝了，Fahad还嘲笑了Asad一顿。结果Asad在长凳旁见到了Fahad的钱包。他本来不想归还，但是出于天性还是归还了钱包，两人也因此成为了朋友。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“起初，Asad想保守秘密，并惩罚了Fahad”可知，第一段可描写Asad不归还钱包，内心的挣扎以及他还钱包的过程。
②由第二段首句内容“然后Fahad说：‘你为什么要把它还给我？’”可知，第二段可描写Asad解释自己还钱包的原因以及Fahad羞愧。
