Matthew has retired. He used to be working in a sawmill (锯木厂). Cutting and piling wood for 8 hours a day had caused his fingers to be injured and bleed all year round. Outside his job, he enjoyed watching baseball games and he was glad that he had more time for it after he retired. In Matthew’s eyes, baseball was a game including details, mental sharpness, and great patience, and he thought instructing young men needed the same abilities.
There were boys on the high school baseball team playing in the neighborhood and Matthew was their regular visitor. Whether on summer evenings under the lights or in the mid-afternoon sun, he was always the one to appear on time. In the beginning, he simply sat and watched them. After a good play, Matthew would give them a praising sign, and a mistake would earn his smile, which meant, “You’ll get another chance!” He communicated with the boys in such a way.
Gradually, the boys got used to Matthew’s presence and became familiar with him. They were curious about his tough hands. He talked about his adventures of working in the forest. They were long and inspiring stories, all about friendship, helping each other, and remaining hopeful even though experiencing hardship, and also about how a boy grew into a man.
Matthew would take time to show them some basic skills to some slow learners and took the trouble to repeat each detail until the players were skillful. What Matthew taught was deeply rooted in the boys’hearts and they could play wonderfully in the races.
Time flew. Matthew thought he was too old to teach them anything. It was time for him to leave. However, the boys told Matthew that his fighting spirit had long been part of their team. Nearly everyone on the team learned to expect a little more from themselves as long as Matthew was there.
4、What did Matthew think of the baseball game
A. It took plenty of patience. B. It needed a lot of strength.
C. It must be based on interest. D. It called for sharp movements.

7、What can we infer from the last two paragraphs

B. Matthew’s quality would always inspire the boys.
C. The boys thought Matthew became less patient later.
D. The boys learned more baseball skills from Matthew.
Two car manufacturing companies in the US have been developing self-driving taxis, sometimes called “robotaxis”. Before August, their cars have had a human in the driver’s seat, ready to take over if there was a problem, and they could only drive in specific areas, at certain times. In early August, they weren’t required to have safety drivers in their cars. They are programmed to do everything on their own, including obeying the rules of the road, following speed limits, and avoiding people and other cars.
The move was a big step for self-driving cars, and many people were excited about the change. But almost immediately, there were problems coming along. A self-driving car crashed into a fire truck, causing a person seriously injured. Later, another one failed to work in the middle of a crossroad, causing a traffic jam. As a result, the two companies were told to take half of its robotaxis off the roads.
In one recent example, a self-driving car got stuck in wet concrete (混凝土) because it didn’t know that wet concrete was different from a road. In another case, a robotaxi killed a dog. The self-driving system knew the dog was there, but didn’t know how to avoid it. Most people believe that self-driving cars aren’t ready for the real world. Those who are upset about self-driving cars have found an unusual way to be against them: putting traffic cones (路锥) on the hoods (引擎盖) of robotaxis, which can confuse the cars’driving system and leave them unable to move.
In spite of the problems, both companies are planning to expand their self-driving car service to other cities. One of them says its driverless system will soon be able to work in any city, on any kind of vehicle. Though the quality of self-driving cars is improving, it’s likely to be a while before most people view them as safe.
8、What was the biggest change to the robotaxis recently
A. They are limited in their speed.
B. They must obey the traffic rules.
C. They can work at certain times of a day.
D. They can drive without a human driver.
9、What problem has happened to robotaxis
A. They killed a person in an accident.
B. They couldn’t avoid the traffic cones.
C. They sometimes broke down on the roads.
D. They often failed to recognize the directions.
10、How do most people feel robotaxis
A. Concerned. B. Supportive. C. Curious. D. Uncaring.
11、Which is the best title for the text
A. Robotaxis struggled to survive, but failed finally
B. Robotaxis move forward, but far from satisfaction
C. Robotaxis driven by a perfect self-driving system
D. Robotaxis expanding to more cities in America
Tall, long-necked giraffes are famous for their spots which are believed to help the animals hide from their enemies. Just like no two humans have the same fingerprints, each giraffe has its own special pattern of spots. However, a Tennessee zoo made headlines recently after it welcomed one of the world’s most uncommon giraffes.
On July 31, a baby giraffe was born at Brights Zoo with light brown fur which is a reticulated (网状的) giraffe, one of the four different kinds of giraffes. Unlike most giraffes, she was born without spots, a unique feature of the reticulated giraffe. At six feet tall, this baby giraffe is growing well under her mother’s care. She shows typical baby giraffe behavior, such as eating rocks.
Experts said the young giraffe was the only single-colored reticulated giraffe living anywhere on the planet. The last time this happened was 1972 in Japan. A giraffe’s pattern of spots is created when the animal is still growing inside its mother. That means that this giraffe will never have spots.
“The new giraffe might not have survived if she had been born in the wild. Being single-colored, she may not be able to hide quite as well,” said Mr. David Bright, who runs the zoo, “It will easily be a key target for poachers (偷猎者) because she’s so unusual.”
Brights Zoo stressed that reticulated giraffes had already become imperiled. In 2018, they were officially listed as “threatened”. Thirty-five years ago, there were 36,000 reticulated giraffes. Now, the number has been cut by more than 50%. Only about 16,000 reticulated giraffes remain.
This brown giraffe’s birth is not only a rare and fascinating event, but also an opportunity to raise awareness about the challenges faced by giraffes in the wild. By supporting efforts like this, we can contribute to the conservation of these large creatures and ensure their survival for generations to come.
12、What do we know about the spots of giraffes
A. They help protect giraffes.
B. They are the same pattern.
C. They look like giraffes’ footprints.
D. They appear on giraffes occasionally.
13、What makes the young giraffe born at Brights Zoo special
A. Its extremely large size. B. Its light brown fur.
C. Its unusual eating habit. D. Its absence of spots.
14、What does the underlined word “imperiled” mean in paragraph 5
A. Recognized. B. Endangered. C. Doubled. D. Balanced.
15、Which word can best describe the birth of the young giraffe
A. Awkward. B. Worrying. C. Meaningful. D. Foreseeable.
二、七选五

六、读后续写
34、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。
In a heartwarming event that has touched the nation, a police officer in Warren, Michigan, was considered as a true hero by saving the life of an 18-month-old boy who had suddenly stopped breathing. This event happened on the evening of August 29 and has since touched the hearts of many.
Officer Brandan Fraser was on duty, focusing on speed and absent-minded driving, when he noticed a car speeding past him. What in the beginning seemed like a common traffic violation (违规) rapidly turned into a life-and-death crisis.
As Fraser came up to the car, he was met with a sad cry from a woman, who screamed, “We got a baby in here dying. Help! Help!” Both the woman and the man in the car were frightened as they handed over the baby boy, who appeared to be lifeless, not breathing and turning blue.
Rather than giving in to the pressure of the moment, Fraser immediately sprang into action. He examined the baby and doubted that he might be choking (窒息). Fraser quickly positioned the baby on his forearm and performed a series of back blows to force any obstruction (阻塞物) from the baby’s airway out.
However, the baby still showed no signs of breathing. Fraser’s heart raced, but his training kicked in here. After making sure the baby’s airway was clear, he then continued to perform CPR on the baby. His hands pressed the baby’s tiny chest and at the same time, he blew some air into the baby’s mouth to help make his heart beat again. Fraser continued these life-saving efforts tirelessly, knowing that every second counted.
Surprisingly, the baby began to breathe once more. Fraser described the moment, saying, “The baby started breathing, and you saw that color started coming back around his lips. You realized that something happened here, and we were heading in the right direction.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After a while, the baby gave out a cry, a sign that life was returning.

Then the baby was quickly transported to a nearby hospital.

16、答案：①-⑤AGCDE
解析：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要提供了一些建议以帮助高一新生更好地适应高中生活的变化。
①空处为段首句，为本段主要内容。根据下文“This skill is especially important in high school. Get a weekly planner and update it every day. Whenever a teacher assigns (布置) homework, write it down immediately. Write down the date to remind yourself when you have big examinations coming up. Don’t let your backpack fill up with old papers you no longer need.(这项技能在高中尤为重要。制定每周计划，每天更新。每当老师布置作业时，要立即写下来。写下日期，当你有重要考试时提醒自己。不要让你的背包塞满你不再需要的旧文件。)”可知，本段主要建议高一新生要做事要有计划，有条理。选项A“Stay organized(保持条理)”正是本段内容的总结。故选A。
②根据上文内容“Complete every assignment you’re given and take an active part in discussions. Volunteer to help teachers out when they ask for help. If you are not into a certain subject of a teacher, still try to take part in, focus on and complete your work.(完成布置给你的每一项任务，积极参与讨论。当老师需要帮助时，自愿帮助他们。如果你对老师的某一学科不感兴趣，仍然要努力参与、专注并完成你的工作。)”可知，上文主要就如何处理师生关系给出具体的建议。选项G“Never argue or act out just because you aren’t a fan of the teacher(不要因为你不喜欢老师就和他争吵或做出过激的举动)”延续上文内容，指的是如何处理和不喜欢的老师之间的关系。故选G。
③根据空前内容“If you just hold on to a certain friend who you’re comfortable around, you may be missing out more.(如果你只是抓着某个让你感觉舒服的朋友不放，你可能会错过更多。)”可知，作者建议多交朋友。选项C“This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t have a best friend(这并不是说你不应该有一个最好的朋友)”与上文内容一致，同时引出下文“but it’s always a good idea to keep an open mind.(但保持开放的心态总是一个好主意。)”，指的是保持开放的心态，与不同的人交朋友。故选C。
④根据下文“If you love volleyball, ask your physical education teacher when tryouts are. If you enjoy movies, see if there’s a film club at school.(如果你喜欢排球，在选拔赛的时候问问你的体育老师。如果你喜欢电影，看看学校里有没有电影俱乐部。)”可知，作者建议多参加运动，多加入俱乐部。选项D“Sports and clubs make high school a lot more enjoyable(运动和俱乐部使高中生活更加愉快)”与下文内容一致，指的是多运动，参加俱乐部。故选D。

17、答案：C
解析：考查动词词义辨析。句意：但当她10岁时，一切都变了。A. reduced减少；B. flashed闪现；C. changed改变；D. recovered恢复。由前文“As an only child, Hazel often felt lonely in her youth. (作为独生女，Hazel在小时候经常感到孤独)”和转折词But可知，Hazel小时候很孤独，但是在10岁那一年“改变”了，因为奶奶送给她了一只小狗，前后句意构成转折。故选C。
18、答案：B

After a while, the baby gave out a cry, a sign that life was returning. All the people around sighed in relief. The baby’s parents were more than thrilled with tears falling down their faces. They thanked Fraser again and again. “We can’t thank you too much, Mr. Fraser. It was what you did just now that saved the life of our son. Thank you, very much! You’re our true hero.” “Don’t mention that so much. What I did was just little. Now it’s time to go to the hospital to see a doctor.”
Then the baby was quickly transported to a nearby hospital. Hardly had they arrived when the emergency doctors gathered around to check the baby. “Somebody must have done the right first aid for your son.” A doctor asked. “Yes, doctors. A police called Fraser did it for him just now.” The baby’s father said. “What he did really matters. He saved your son.” At last, the doctors gave whole and careful examinations for the baby and made sure he was all right.

Matthew has retired. He used to be working in a sawmill (锯木厂). Cutting and piling wood for 8 hours a day had caused his fingers to be injured and bleed all year round. Outside his job, he enjoyed watching baseball games and he was glad that he had more time for it after he retired. In Matthew’s eyes, baseball was a game including details, mental sharpness, and great patience, and he thought instructing young men needed the same abilities.
There were boys on the high school baseball team playing in the neighborhood and Matthew was their regular visitor. Whether on summer evenings under the lights or in the mid-afternoon sun, he was always the one to appear on time. In the beginning, he simply sat and watched them. After a good play, Matthew would give them a praising sign, and a mistake would earn his smile, which meant, “You’ll get another chance!” He communicated with the boys in such a way.
Gradually, the boys got used to Matthew’s presence and became familiar with him. They were curious about his tough hands. He talked about his adventures of working in the forest. They were long and inspiring stories, all about friendship, helping each other, and remaining hopeful even though experiencing hardship, and also about how a boy grew into a man.
Matthew would take time to show them some basic skills to some slow learners and took the trouble to repeat each detail until the players were skillful. What Matthew taught was deeply rooted in the boys’hearts and they could play wonderfully in the races.
Time flew. Matthew thought he was too old to teach them anything. It was time for him to leave. However, the boys told Matthew that his fighting spirit had long been part of their team. Nearly everyone on the team learned to expect a little more from themselves as long as Matthew was there.

Two car manufacturing companies in the US have been developing self-driving taxis, sometimes called “robotaxis”. Before August, their cars have had a human in the driver’s seat, ready to take over if there was a problem, and they could only drive in specific areas, at certain times. In early August, they weren’t required to have safety drivers in their cars. They are programmed to do everything on their own, including obeying the rules of the road, following speed limits, and avoiding people and other cars.
The move was a big step for self-driving cars, and many people were excited about the change. But almost immediately, there were problems coming along. A self-driving car crashed into a fire truck, causing a person seriously injured. Later, another one failed to work in the middle of a crossroad, causing a traffic jam. As a result, the two companies were told to take half of its robotaxis off the roads.
In one recent example, a self-driving car got stuck in wet concrete (混凝土) because it didn’t know that wet concrete was different from a road. In another case, a robotaxi killed a dog. The self-driving system knew the dog was there, but didn’t know how to avoid it. Most people believe that self-driving cars aren’t ready for the real world. Those who are upset about self-driving cars have found an unusual way to be against them: putting traffic cones (路锥) on the hoods (引擎盖) of robotaxis, which can confuse the cars’driving system and leave them unable to move.
In spite of the problems, both companies are planning to expand their self-driving car service to other cities. One of them says its driverless system will soon be able to work in any city, on any kind of vehicle. Though the quality of self-driving cars is improving, it’s likely to be a while before most people view them as safe.
8、What was the biggest change to the robotaxis recently
A. They are limited in their speed.
B. They must obey the traffic rules.
C. They can work at certain times of a day.
D. They can drive without a human driver.
9、What problem has happened to robotaxis
A. They killed a person in an accident.
B. They couldn’t avoid the traffic cones.
C. They sometimes broke down on the roads.
D. They often failed to recognize the directions.
10、How do most people feel robotaxis
A. Concerned. B. Supportive. C. Curious. D. Uncaring.
11、Which is the best title for the text
A. Robotaxis struggled to survive, but failed finally
B. Robotaxis move forward, but far from satisfaction
C. Robotaxis driven by a perfect self-driving system
D. Robotaxis expanding to more cities in America
Tall, long-necked giraffes are famous for their spots which are believed to help the animals hide from their enemies. Just like no two humans have the same fingerprints, each giraffe has its own special pattern of spots. However, a Tennessee zoo made headlines recently after it welcomed one of the world’s most uncommon giraffes.
On July 31, a baby giraffe was born at Brights Zoo with light brown fur which is a reticulated (网状的) giraffe, one of the four different kinds of giraffes. Unlike most giraffes, she was born without spots, a unique feature of the reticulated giraffe. At six feet tall, this baby giraffe is growing well under her mother’s care. She shows typical baby giraffe behavior, such as eating rocks.
Experts said the young giraffe was the only single-colored reticulated giraffe living anywhere on the planet. The last time this happened was 1972 in Japan. A giraffe’s pattern of spots is created when the animal is still growing inside its mother. That means that this giraffe will never have spots.
“The new giraffe might not have survived if she had been born in the wild. Being single-colored, she may not be able to hide quite as well,” said Mr. David Bright, who runs the zoo, “It will easily be a key target for poachers (偷猎者) because she’s so unusual.”
Brights Zoo stressed that reticulated giraffes had already become imperiled. In 2018, they were officially listed as “threatened”. Thirty-five years ago, there were 36,000 reticulated giraffes. Now, the number has been cut by more than 50%. Only about 16,000 reticulated giraffes remain.
This brown giraffe’s birth is not only a rare and fascinating event, but also an opportunity to raise awareness about the challenges faced by giraffes in the wild. By supporting efforts like this, we can contribute to the conservation of these large creatures and ensure their survival for generations to come.
12、What do we know about the spots of giraffes
A. They help protect giraffes.
B. They are the same pattern.
C. They look like giraffes’ footprints.
D. They appear on giraffes occasionally.
13、What makes the young giraffe born at Brights Zoo special
A. Its extremely large size. B. Its light brown fur.
C. Its unusual eating habit. D. Its absence of spots.
14、What does the underlined word “imperiled” mean in paragraph 5
A. Recognized. B. Endangered. C. Doubled. D. Balanced.
15、Which word can best describe the birth of the young giraffe
A. Awkward. B. Worrying. C. Meaningful. D. Foreseeable.

In a heartwarming event that has touched the nation, a police officer in Warren, Michigan, was considered as a true hero by saving the life of an 18-month-old boy who had suddenly stopped breathing. This event happened on the evening of August 29 and has since touched the hearts of many.
Officer Brandan Fraser was on duty, focusing on speed and absent-minded driving, when he noticed a car speeding past him. What in the beginning seemed like a common traffic violation (违规) rapidly turned into a life-and-death crisis.
As Fraser came up to the car, he was met with a sad cry from a woman, who screamed, “We got a baby in here dying. Help! Help!” Both the woman and the man in the car were frightened as they handed over the baby boy, who appeared to be lifeless, not breathing and turning blue.
Rather than giving in to the pressure of the moment, Fraser immediately sprang into action. He examined the baby and doubted that he might be choking (窒息). Fraser quickly positioned the baby on his forearm and performed a series of back blows to force any obstruction (阻塞物) from the baby’s airway out.
However, the baby still showed no signs of breathing. Fraser’s heart raced, but his training kicked in here. After making sure the baby’s airway was clear, he then continued to perform CPR on the baby. His hands pressed the baby’s tiny chest and at the same time, he blew some air into the baby’s mouth to help make his heart beat again. Fraser continued these life-saving efforts tirelessly, knowing that every second counted.
Surprisingly, the baby began to breathe once more. Fraser described the moment, saying, “The baby started breathing, and you saw that color started coming back around his lips. You realized that something happened here, and we were heading in the right direction.”
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

8、答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Before August, their cars have had a human in the driver’s seat, ready to take over if there was a problem, and they could only drive in specific areas, at certain times. In early August, they weren’t required to have safety drivers in their cars. They are programmed to do everything on their own, including obeying the rules of the road, following speed limits, and avoiding people and other cars.(在8月之前，他们的汽车已经有了一个人坐在驾驶座上，准备在出现问题时接管，而且他们只能在特定的时间在特定的区域行驶。8月初，他们的车没有被要求配备安全驾驶员。他们被编程为自己做任何事情，包括遵守道路规则，遵循速度限制，避开人和其他车辆。)”可知，最近机器人出租车最大的变化是车上没有安全驾驶员了。故选D。
9、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Later, another one failed to work in the middle of a crossroad, causing a traffic jam.(后来，另一辆在十字路口的中间失灵，造成了交通堵塞。)”可知，机器人出租车有时会在路上抛锚。故选C。

11、答案：B
解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Two car manufacturing companies in the US have been developing self-driving taxis, sometimes called “robotaxis”. Before August, their cars have had a human in the driver’s seat, ready to take over if there was a problem, and they could only drive in specific areas, at certain times. In early August, they weren’t required to have safety drivers in their cars. They are programmed to do everything on their own, including obeying the rules of the road, following speed limits, and avoiding people and other cars.(美国两家汽车制造公司一直在开发自动驾驶出租车，有时被称为“机器人出租车”。在8月之前，他们的汽车已经有了一个人坐在驾驶座上，准备在出现问题时接管，而且他们只能在特定的时间在特定的区域行驶。8月初，他们的车没有被要求配备安全驾驶员。他们被编程为自己做任何事情，包括遵守道路规则，遵循速度限制，避开人和其他车辆。)”以及最后一段“In spite of the problems, both companies are planning to expand their self-driving car service to other cities. One of them says its driverless system will soon be able to work in any city, on any kind of vehicle. Though the quality of self-driving cars is improving, it’s likely to be a while before most people view them as safe.(尽管存在这些问题，但两家公司都计划将自动驾驶汽车服务扩展到其他城市。其中一家公司表示，它的无人驾驶系统很快就能在任何城市、任何类型的车辆上工作。尽管自动驾驶汽车的质量正在提高，但要让大多数人认为它们是安全的，可能还需要一段时间。)”可知，文章主要讲述的是机器人出租车一直在研发，但是远不能令人满意。故选B。
12、答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段“Tall, long-necked giraffes are famous for their spots which are believed to help the animals hide from their enemies.(高大、长脖子的长颈鹿以其斑点而闻名，人们认为这些斑点可以帮助它们躲避敌人)”可知，长颈鹿的斑点有助于保护长颈鹿。故选A。
13、答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“Unlike most giraffes, she was born without spots, a unique feature of the reticulated giraffe.(与大多数长颈鹿不同，她出生时没有斑点，这是网状长颈鹿的一个独特特征)”可知，在布莱特动物园出生的小长颈鹿的特别之处是没有斑点。故选D。
14、答案：B
解析：词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“In 2018, they were officially listed as “threatened”. Thirty-five years ago, there were 36,000 reticulated giraffes. Now, the number has been cut by more than 50%. Only about 16,000 reticulated giraffes remain.(2018年，它们被正式列为“受威胁”。35年前，有36000只网纹长颈鹿。现在，这个数字已经减少了50%以上。目前只剩下大约16000只网纹长颈鹿)”可知，网纹长颈鹿剩的数量不多了，说明濒临灭绝了。故划线词意思是“濒临灭绝的”。故选B。
15、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“This brown giraffe’s birth is not only a rare and fascinating event, but also an opportunity to raise awareness about the challenges faced by giraffes in the wild. By supporting efforts like this, we can contribute to the conservation of these large creatures and ensure their survival for generations to come.(这只棕色长颈鹿的出生不仅是一个罕见而迷人的事件，也是一个提高人们对野生长颈鹿面临的挑战的认识的机会。通过支持这样的努力，我们可以为保护这些大型生物做出贡献，并确保它们的子孙后代得以生存)”可推知，小长颈鹿的诞生是有意义的。故选C。

34、答案：
After a while, the baby gave out a cry, a sign that life was returning. All the people around sighed in relief. The baby’s parents were more than thrilled with tears falling down their faces. They thanked Fraser again and again. “We can’t thank you too much, Mr. Fraser. It was what you did just now that saved the life of our son. Thank you, very much! You’re our true hero.” “Don’t mention that so much. What I did was just little. Now it’s time to go to the hospital to see a doctor.”
Then the baby was quickly transported to a nearby hospital. Hardly had they arrived when the emergency doctors gathered around to check the baby. “Somebody must have done the right first aid for your son.” A doctor asked. “Yes, doctors. A police called Fraser did it for him just now.” The baby’s father said. “What he did really matters. He saved your son.” At last, the doctors gave whole and careful examinations for the baby and made sure he was all right.
