A special architect-designer in southern Finland has returned to a lake with a snow shovel (雪铲) to draw a large animal on the ice for the sixth year in a row. On Dec. 4, Pasi Widgren drew a fox (狐狸) that measured about 295 feet on Lake Pitkajarvi, north of Helsinki. In previous years, he used a shovel to draw a bear and a bird always on the same lake.
Widgren has drawn animals on local lakes every winter since 2016 near his home in a village not far from Lahti, a town of around 120,000 people. The drawings disappear when more snow falls. He hopes his artworks will “make people happy and encourage them to go out to hike in beautiful nature.”
The idea for this form of art came “suddenly a couple of years ago when I realized I may have a special ability of coordination (协调) to do this kind of thing myself,” the 40-year-old told the Associated Press.
When he reached Lake Pitkajarvi this month, he tested the thickness of the ice to make sure it was thick enough to walk and work on. At 4-6 inches thick, it was.
“Of course, I had ice awls (冰锥) with me, around my neck,” in case the ice cracked and he had to save himself, Widgren said.
“Then I drew the contours (轮廓) of the figure by walking and thinking at the same time so it matched my image of a fox and then I started to ‘draw’ using the snow shovel,” he explained.
Four hours later, Widgren was done.
“I walked to the top of the hills” about 150 feet above the lake “to look at the result, drank coffee and took some photos and videos as a memory of doing this.”
The fox was less visible by Monday because it had snowed a little. “It’s also very important to me that making this kind of art doesn’t leave any marks on nature,” Widgren said.
14. In what way is Widgren different as an artist
A. He uses unique and high-tech art materials.
B. He invites local people to paint with him.
C. He draws animals on the ice of lakes.
D. He paints the same fox every year.
15. What is Widgren’s purpose in creating his artworks
A. To become famous in his hometown.
B. To call on people to get close to nature.
C. To attract more visitors to his hometown.
D. To improve his special ability of coordination.
16. What does the underlined word “cracked” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Formed. B. Covered.
C. Disappeared. D. Broke.
17. What is significant to Widgren when making his art
A. Reducing environmental impact.
B. Recording his art creation process.
C. Making his artworks more visible.
D. Being humorous and creative.

Short stories for kids can provide them with a lot of fun and entertainment and also teach them the important values of life.
There are some popular short stories around the world. For example, The Ugly Duckling, written by Hans Christian Anderson, which is based on the change of an ugly duckling into a beautiful swan, is one of the most inspiring short stories for children. Then there is The Boy Who Cried Wolf, a classic Aesop’s fable which shows kids the importance of always telling the truth. Little Red Riding Hood, which is written by the Brothers Grimm, tells kids about a strong and brave girl called Little Red Riding Hood and how she fights with an evil wolf to save her grandmother. Here are some examples of different types of short stories.
Ghost stories can be really entertaining and most kids enjoy them. While telling such kinds of stories, you should raise and lower your voice properly and make expressions suitable to what is happening in the story.
Historical stories can help children understand the lives of great leaders and heroes of the past. This will not only help show useful values to children, but also help them perform better in the subject of history.
In stories related to nature, you would be describing famous rivers, mountains and seas. Tell kids what nature has given us and how we should protect it for our own good.
Short stories not only keep kids entertained, but they also help to develop their sense of imagination and creative way of thinking. You can also make up some short stories of your own and spend some quality time with your kids.

“Snowplow (扫雪机) parenting” is the newest parenting style that can include parents booking their adult children haircuts, calling their college kids to wake them up so that they don’t sleep through a test, and even calling their kids’ employers.
“‘Helicopter (直升机) parenting’ means monitoring their kids’ every activity, which is out of date.” Claire Cain Miller and Jonah Engel Bromwich wrote in The New York Times. “Some rich mothers and fathers now are more like snowplows: clearing any problems in their children’s path to success so that they don’t have to meet failure or lose opportunities.”
There is a mother who started a charity in her son’s name to try to raise his chances of being accepted to the college. Another couple of parents spent years helping their daughter avoid foods with sauce, which she didn’t like. Once she got to college, she had problems with the food in her school because it was all covered in sauce.
A survey says that three-quarters of parents of children between the ages of 18 and 28 ask for doctor visits or haircuts for their children, and 11% say they would call their kids’ bosses whether their children are having an issue at work.
As reported, wealthy parents try to get their children into top colleges by giving a large amount of money to a school, such as paying for a building. This parenting has become the most popular way to raise children, whatever the income, education, or race is.
Julie, a teacher at Stanford, told the Times that “snowplow parenting” is not a reasonable approach. “The parents should prepare the kid for the road, instead of preparing the road for the kid,” she said.
22. According to paragraph 2, “helicopter parenting”________.
A. was once a popular parenting style B. clears problems for kids
C. encourages kids to care for themselves D. is preferred by more parents
23. In paragraph 3, the author tries to ________.
A. argue for the “snowplow parenting” style
B. give examples of “snowplow parenting”
C. explain the idea of “snowplow parenting”
D offer some advice on “snowplow parenting”
24. What does Julie mean by her words in the last paragraph
A. Parents should be prepared to deal with the problems their kids meet.
B. Parents should never do anything for their kids until problems turn up.
C. Kids should develop the ability to face challenges with the help of parents.
D. Kids should always be independent of their parents no matter what happens.
25. What’s the best title for the text
A. Clear the Way for Your Kids
B. Have Your Eye on Your Kids
C. “Helicopter Parenting”—The Same Old Story
D. “Snowplow Parenting”—The More Help, The Better

Only eight days until Thanksgiving and there wasn’t going to be enough money to buy the necessary things for the holiday. I promised my three sons that we’d love a nice family dinner in our new home, unlike the prior year when we canceled Thanksgiving to deal with the loss of their father.
It was hard to put everyday food on the table for three growing boys with the little I earned from work, but I promised a good meal. We looked forward to a day of good eating! But there was only enough bread in the house, two chicken breasts and a few other things.
The next day, I met my friend and neighbor, Aleta, at her home. Her four boys and my kids were good friends. Her husband had recently lost his job due to illness, and they suffered financial difficulties as well.
We stood there talking about our coming Thanksgiving dinner, and agreed to make a Thanksgiving feast together. Then children of the two families headed out and found a few neighbors who helped them earn enough to purchase most of the items they set out for, except the turkey.
Four days before Thanksgiving, I managed to buy a turkey and finished baking the cookies. My friend called with news about a family living in our community who needed help with food and bills. The father had been in an accident and unable to work for the last few months. We didn’t know the family well, but my friend and I went to visit them with our holiday cookies, hoping to help in some way. In no time, her kids ate the cookies.
While everyone chatted. I went into their kitchen. The cupboards were almost bare. I was shocked. Aleta and I left the house, desperately wanting to help. Without a word, we looked at each other, asking ourselves the same question. Could we sacrifice a little more and give the family our holiday meal

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了芬兰艺术家Pasi Widgren用雪铲在结冰的湖面上作画。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A special architect-designer in southern Finland has returned to a lake with a snow shovel (雪铲) to draw a large animal on the ice for the sixth year in a row.(芬兰南部的一位建筑师和设计师带着雪铲回到了湖泊,连续六年在冰上画一只大动物。)”可知,Widgren的与众不同之处是他用雪铲在结冰的湖面上作画,故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“He hopes his artworks will “make people happy and encourage them to go out to hike in beautiful nature.”(他希望他的作品能‘让人们快乐,鼓励他们去美丽的大自然中徒步行走’。)”可知,Widgren在结冰的湖面上作画是想鼓励人们亲近自然,故选B。
【16题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词cracked前文的内容“Of course, I had ice awls (冰锥) with me, around my neck,(当然,我会带着冰锥,绕在我脖子上,)”和后文的内容“and he had to save himself(他必须自救)”可推知,Widgren创作时会携带冰锥,万一结冰的湖面裂开,可用于自救,故此处的划线词cracked与D项“Broke(裂开)”意思相近,故选D。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段““It’s also very important to me that making this kind of art doesn’t leave any marks on nature,” Widgren said.( Widgren说道:‘对我来说,让这种艺术不给自然留下任何痕迹也是很重要的。’)”可知,对Widgren而言,艺术创作过程中减少对环境的影响是很重要的,故选A。

“Snowplow (扫雪机) parenting” is the newest parenting style that can include parents booking their adult children haircuts, calling their college kids to wake them up so that they don’t sleep through a test, and even calling their kids’ employers.
“‘Helicopter (直升机) parenting’ means monitoring their kids’ every activity, which is out of date.” Claire Cain Miller and Jonah Engel Bromwich wrote in The New York Times. “Some rich mothers and fathers now are more like snowplows: clearing any problems in their children’s path to success so that they don’t have to meet failure or lose opportunities.”
There is a mother who started a charity in her son’s name to try to raise his chances of being accepted to the college. Another couple of parents spent years helping their daughter avoid foods with sauce, which she didn’t like. Once she got to college, she had problems with the food in her school because it was all covered in sauce.
A survey says that three-quarters of parents of children between the ages of 18 and 28 ask for doctor visits or haircuts for their children, and 11% say they would call their kids’ bosses whether their children are having an issue at work.
As reported, wealthy parents try to get their children into top colleges by giving a large amount of money to a school, such as paying for a building. This parenting has become the most popular way to raise children, whatever the income, education, or race is.
Julie, a teacher at Stanford, told the Times that “snowplow parenting” is not a reasonable approach. “The parents should prepare the kid for the road, instead of preparing the road for the kid,” she said.
22. According to paragraph 2, “helicopter parenting”________.
A. was once a popular parenting style B. clears problems for kids
C. encourages kids to care for themselves D. is preferred by more parents
23. In paragraph 3, the author tries to ________.
A. argue for the “snowplow parenting” style
B. give examples of “snowplow parenting”
C. explain the idea of “snowplow parenting”
D. offer some advice on “snowplow parenting”
24. What does Julie mean by her words in the last paragraph
A. Parents should be prepared to deal with the problems their kids meet.
B. Parents should never do anything for their kids until problems turn up.
C. Kids should develop the ability to face challenges with the help of parents.
D. Kids should always be independent of their parents no matter what happens.
25. What’s the best title for the text
A. Clear the Way for Your Kids
B. Have Your Eye on Your Kids
C. “Helicopter Parenting”—The Same Old Story
D. “Snowplow Parenting”—The More Help, The Better
【答案】22. A 23. B 24. C 25. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章探讨了“扫雪机式育儿法”的特点和利弊,作者认为家长不应该为孩子完完全全扫清成长路上的障碍,要让小孩适应未来生活的道路,而不是让未来的道路来适应小孩的成长。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“‘Helicopter (直升机) parenting’ means monitoring their kids’ every activity, which is out of date.(‘直升机式育儿法’意味着监控孩子的一举一动,这已经过时了)”可知,直升机式育儿现在已经不流行了,说明该方式曾经是一种非常流行的育儿理念。故选A。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“There is a mother who started a charity in her son’s name to try to raise his chances of being accepted to the college. Another couple of parents spent years helping their daughter avoid foods with sauce, which she didn’t like. Once she got to college, she had problems with the food in her school because it was all covered in sauce.(有一位母亲以她儿子的名义创办了一个慈善机构,试图提高他被大学录取的机会。另一对父母花了数年时间帮助女儿避免吃她不喜欢的酱料食物。上了大学后,她对学校的食物产生了问题,因为食物上都是酱汁)”可推知,作者试图列举“扫雪机式育儿法”的例子。故选B。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Julie, a teacher at Stanford, told the Times that “snowplow parenting” is not a reasonable approach. “The parents should prepare the kid for the road, instead of preparing the road for the kid,” she said.(朱莉是斯坦福大学的一名教师,她告诉《泰晤士报》,“扫雪机式育儿法”不是一种合理的方法。“父母应该为孩子准备好道路,而不是为孩子准备好道路,”她说)”可推知,朱莉认为孩子应该在父母的帮助下培养面对挑战的能力。故选C。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的““Snowplow (扫雪机) parenting” is the newest parenting style that can include parents booking their adult children haircuts, calling their college kids to wake them up so that they don’t sleep through a test, and even calling their kids’ employers.(“扫雪机育儿法”是一种最新的育儿方式,其中包括父母为成年子女预约理发,打电话叫醒他们上大学的孩子,这样他们就不会在考试时睡觉,甚至还会打电话给孩子的雇主。)”可知,该段通过几个生活中的小事件引出了“扫雪机式育儿法”这一新的理念,第二段提到了之前流行的“直升机式育儿法”这一理念进行比较,第三、四段提到了“扫雪机式育儿法”中父母会对孩子做的事情,且这一育儿方法的流行程度,最后一段则提到了一位教师对“扫雪机式育儿法”的批判,认为父母对孩子生活的过多的干预可能会对孩子造成不好的影响。由此可知,D项““Snowplow Parenting”—The More Help, The Better (“扫雪机育儿法”——帮助越多越好?)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。
第二节:七选五
Rabbits are a popular symbol of Easter and there is usually an increase in owning rabbits at this time. ____26____. They are complex animals with specific needs and not as easy to own as once thought. However, with the right care they are incredibly rewarding and interesting pets. Here are things to consider
Rabbits need a lot of space
They are active animals that need to be able to hop, jump, run and explore. A pair of rabbits should be provided with a space that is no less than three metres by two metres by one metre high. ____27____. As rabbits are most active at dusk and dawn, exercise areas should be permanently attached.
____28____
Rabbits are social creatures and need the company of their own kind. Keep at least two together and you’ll never look back — watching rabbits interact with each other is a joy. The best combination is a neutered (绝育的) male and neutered female, but neutered same sex siblings can work too.
All paws on the floor
Rabbits are thought of as an “easy” introduction to owning a pet and are often bought for small children. Of course, children can enjoy learning about rabbits and interacting with them. ____29____. As prey animals, they like to keep all four feet firmly on the ground and prefer to hop onto a lap to get a tasty treat rather than be picked up.
Always give the right food
____30____. So they need constant access to grass of good quality to keep them healthy. They only need a small amount of concentrated food a day and a few healthy greens. “Sugary” vegetables and fruits should only be fed very occasionally, if at all.
A. A single rabbit is a lonely rabbit
B. Adopt rabbits from a rescue shelter
C. Children’s playhouses are often a cost-effective choice
D. But it’s important to think twice before deciding if they are right for you
E. Rabbits have a complex digestive system and teeth that grow continuously
F. Rabbits can reproduce from four months, so it’s important to get them neutered
G. Unfortunately, they don’t enjoy being picked up and they are easily frightened
【答案】26. D 27. C 28. A 29. G 30. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是养兔子需要注意的一些事情。
【26题详解】
空前说“Rabbits are a popular symbol of Easter and there is usually an increase in owning rabbits at this time.(兔子是复活节的流行象征,通常在这个时候养兔子的人会增加。)”,空后说“They are complex animals with specific needs and not as easy to own as once thought.(它们是复杂的动物,有着特殊的需求,并不像以前想象的那样容易饲养。)”,由此可见,养兔子不容易,所以养之前要考虑清楚,D选项“But it’s important to think twice before deciding if they are right for you(但在决定它们是否适合你之前,三思而行是很重要的)”说明了在决定养兔子前要再三考虑,因此承上启下,符合语境,故选D。
【27题详解】
空前说“They are active animals that need to be able to hop, jump, run and explore. A pair of rabbits should be provided with a space that is no less than three metres by two metres by one metre high.(它们是活跃的动物,需要能够跳、跑和探索。一对兔子应该有不少于3米× 2米× 1米高的空间。)”,说明兔子需要活动空间,空格处应该说要给它们提供什么样的空间,C选项“Children’s playhouses are often a cost-effective choice(儿童游戏室通常是一个划算的选择)”是给兔子玩耍的空间的一个选择,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选C。
【28题详解】
空格处是本段小标题,由空后的“Rabbits are social creatures and need the company of their own kind. Keep at least two together and you’ll never look back — watching rabbits interact with each other is a joy.(兔子是群居动物,需要同类的陪伴。至少养两只兔子在一起,你就再也不会回头了——看着兔子彼此互动是一种乐趣。)”可知,本段主要讲的是不能只养一只兔子,A选项“A single rabbit is a lonely rabbit(单个的兔子是孤独的兔子)”说明了只养一只兔子会让兔子孤独,不好,因此概括了本段内容,可作为小标题,故选A。
【29题详解】
空前说“Rabbits are thought of as an “easy” introduction to owning a pet and are often bought for small children. Of course, children can enjoy learning about rabbits and interacting with them.(兔子被认为是拥有宠物的“简单”入门,通常是给小孩子买的。当然,孩子们可以享受了解兔子并与它们互动的乐趣。)”,空后说“As prey animals, they like to keep all four feet firmly on the ground and prefer to hop onto a lap to get a tasty treat rather than be picked up.(作为猎物动物,它们喜欢把四只脚牢牢地放在地上,更喜欢跳上腿去吃美味的食物,而不是被人抱起来。)”,因此前后两句是转折关系,空格处应该说它们并不喜欢被饱起来,G选项“Unfortunately, they don’t enjoy being picked up and they are easily frightened(不幸的是,它们不喜欢被抱起来,而且很容易受到惊吓)”说明了兔子不喜欢被抱起来,因此承上启下,符合语境,故选G。
【30题详解】
空后说“So they need constant access to grass of good quality to keep them healthy. They only need a small amount of concentrated food a day and a few healthy greens.(所以它们需要经常吃到高质量的草来保持健康。他们每天只需要少量的浓缩食物和一些健康的绿色蔬菜。)”,空格处应该说为什么它们需要经常吃草,E选项“Rabbits have a complex digestive system and teeth that grow continuously(兔子有复杂的消化系统和不断生长的牙齿)”说明了兔子有复杂的消化系统和不断生长的牙齿,所以才需要不停吃草,因此引起下文,符合语境,故选E。

It was hard to put everyday food on the table for three growing boys with the little I earned from work, but I promised a good meal. We looked forward to a day of good eating! But there was only enough bread in the house, two chicken breasts and a few other things.
The next day, I met my friend and neighbor, Aleta, at her home. Her four boys and my kids were good friends. Her husband had recently lost his job due to illness, and they suffered financial difficulties as well.
We stood there talking about our coming Thanksgiving dinner, and agreed to make a Thanksgiving feast together. Then children of the two families headed out and found a few neighbors who helped them earn enough to purchase most of the items they set out for, except the turkey.
Four days before Thanksgiving, I managed to buy a turkey and finished baking the cookies. My friend called with news about a family living in our community who needed help with food and bills. The father had been in an accident and unable to work for the last few months. We didn’t know the family well, but my friend and I went to visit them with our holiday cookies, hoping to help in some way. In no time, her kids ate the cookies.
While everyone chatted. I went into their kitchen. The cupboards were almost bare. I was shocked. Aleta and I left the house, desperately wanting to help. Without a word, we looked at each other, asking ourselves the same question. Could we sacrifice a little more and give the family our holiday meal

【答案】范文
My eight-year-old summed up perfectly the reason we needed to share our meal. “Thanksgiving days are a time when we should learn to give. It’ll be just all right if we don’t have enough to eat,” he said firmly. Other children, upon learning his words, agreed, though I could feel that they feel a bit disappointed. Our children were excellent. Not only did they learn to appreciate the times when the dinner table was covered with enough food, but also how to help other out of trouble.
Early the next morning, we were able to deliver two full bags of groceries to our neighbors. Their young children jumped with excitement as they pulled groceries out of the bags. Their parents cried as they thanked us. And then, as she knew that we were not well off, she suggested that we three families have the Thanksgiving dinner together. You can’t imagine how excited we were at the dinner, talking and laughing happily. Seeing the children of our three families sitting together at the table. I felt life was so precious.
