A
One day in elementary school, a friend asked me “What are you eating ” as she glanced at my lunchbox. “It smells,” she said, nose crinkled.
I was eating bhindi roti, my favorite Indian snack, which my mom had packed for me. But feeling embarrassed for having a “smelly” lunch and wanting to fit in, I quietly shut my lunchbox. That day, I went hungry.
Most days after that, lunchtime at school felt like a battle. If I wasn’t trying to hide my lunch or sneak quick bites when no one was looking, I’d insist on bringing in the same peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich as the other kids. My mom, who didn’t grow up eating American food, tried her best, but the sandwiches never looked, or tasted, as good as the food I devoured(津津有味地吃) at home.
I didn’t know that I wasn’t alone. Many kids with immigrant parents encounter(遭遇) what’s known as “the lunchbox moment” at school: the experience of being judged for bringing in food considered culturally different and so being made to feel like an outsider.
For this article, I talked with kids who could relate. But they also surprised me:They dealt with “the lunchbox moment” differently than I did. For example, Satya Singh, 6, who takes her mom’s Indian cooking to lunch most days, told me that one day a classmate said that her aloo, or potatoes, looked like poop. Another time, someone said that the dal, or lentils, looked like “throw up”. The next day, Satya brought enough dal to share with her entire class — and they loved it. From then on, she says, “My teacher at school made a rule: Don’t yuck someone’s yum.”
Looking back, I wish I’d had the wisdom of Satya and offered my friend a bite of my lunch, or just told her it was delicious — especially because now, as an adult, I see that Indian food is universally loved by my friends. Some even try to cook Indian lentils or chickpeas at home! And when I’m hungry, guess what I miss my mom’s bhindi roti and her care in making it for me. Food is an expression of culture, tradition, family and love. And that’s something to celebrate, not hide.

Much of Puerto Rico is still without power after Hurricane Fiona struck the island on Sept. 19. The storm laid it in darkness and thousands of people in trouble, even some missing.
Yet some see signs of hope. Over the past five years, around 50,000 solar and battery power systems have been installed on homes in Puerto Rico, says Chris Rauscher, senior director of public policy at Sunrun, the biggest residential solar company in the United States. And almost all that equipment appears to have continued supplying electricity while the island’s central power system went dark, according to market participants and industry observers.
Climate change is making hurricanes wetter and more powerful, increasing the risks to electric reliability in places like Puerto Rico. That strengthens the case for more investment in home solar set-ups, Rauscher says.
“It’s showing that renewables paired with storage ... are really the fundamental building blocks of a clean recovery that we need to really focus on on the island and elsewhere,” he says.
John Berger, chief manager of Sunnova, another big solar company, agrees, calling Puerto Rico “a window into the future.” “The technology’s just physically and fundamentally better,” than the traditional power system, Berger says. “And that’s not going to change.”
But big challenges are still hanging over the island. Lots of reconstruction is still needed. And now on top of that, the hurricane season is not over yet. “The next storm after this — and it will come, I don’t know if it’s next week or next year or two years from now, but it will come — we’ll be in even better shape than we are right now,” Berger says.
8. What did the Hurricane Fiona result in
A. The newly-built island’s central power system. B. Power failure in much of Puerto Rico.
C. The loss of thousands of people. D. Losing eyesight of some people.
9. Why is John Berger mentioned by the author
A. To make the point convincing. B. To give more choices for the islanders.
C. To state the status of Puerto Rico. D. To make comparisons between the two companies.
10. What is the top challenge of Puerto Rico now
A. The reconstruction work. B. The coming hurricane.
C. The shortage of money. D. The need for a safe shelter.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. A Severe Hurricane B. Natural Disasters Are Approaching
C. Renewable Energy Give Puerto Rico Light D. A Newly-rebuilt Island

Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century, the intangible cultural heritage known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed down by a young man. “As someone of Gaolou origin, I have a responsibility to restore our ancestors’ art form,” said Chen Guorui, the world’s only inheritor of this ancient art.
Gaolou Mixian uses rice paste(米糊)to glue together selected grains of transparent rice to create realistic figures or structures. It is a unique folk art that developed during the Qing Dynasty and reached its peak during the first half of the 20th century. Each household in Gaolou village would make rice structures that they put on display in their ancestral halls during the Chinese New Year which attracted people from all sides.
However, due to the wet weather in southern China, these rice-made artworks would only last three to four months before losing their shape. It is for this reason that these works are not seen in museums in China. Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.
Chen found out about this after hearing one former resident express disappointment about its loss. Curious, he started to do research and tried out the methods he heard about from older people in the village. After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.
Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as creating some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice. Since 2017, people at home and abroad have taken an interest in this long-lost art form. To avoid being the last inheritor(传承者), Chen has been giving classes to some students at a primary school in Fuzhou with the support of local education authorities.
12. What do we know about Gaolou Mixian
A. It is mainly made of rice. B. It is stable in wet environment.
C. It is a popular art form nationwide. D. It was created for religious reasons.
13. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. The technique of the artworks. B. The disappearance of the art form.
C. The disappointment of the villagers. D. The reason why the artworks lose their shape.
14. To train more inheritors, what has Chen Guorui done
A. Giving classes to primary students. B. Creating many colorful artworks.
C. Improving his skills. D. Asking older villagers for suggestions.
15 What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Chen Guorui’s Successful Works.
B. A Popular Folk Art of A Chinese Village.
C. The Restoration of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
D. A Long-lost Chinese Art Form and its Restoration.

For 19-year-old Stuart’s father, Peter, his family was his strength and pride.“Together we achieve but divided, we fall,” he often told his four sons, and Stuart was the youngest. Besides family, there was something else that Peter, 56, cherished and believed kept his family united and strong. It was his treasured farm that was passed on from generation to generation.
One day, however, his 19-year-old son, Stuart, approached his dad and told him he wanted his share of the fortune so that he could move to the city and start living his life alone. It was a terrible blow to Peter, who never wished to see his family break.
“But, you don’t know much about city life. I am afraid you’d wander like a lost lamb. This is your family, and we will always support you,” Peter disappointedly said as soon as Stuart told him his intention to leave the house.
“Dad, I’m nineteen, and I have heard plenty about the city from my friends. I don’t want to waste my time and energy farming with you. I have a purpose in life, and I don’t want to become a farmer like you.”
Peter tried changing his mind. “Son, I can give you your share of the fortune. But dear, this is too early to decide.” However, Stuart insisted on going out, so Peter had to give him his share.
Three years went by. Neither Peter nor his family heard anything about Stuart. One day, when the family least expected it, they saw a young man walk toward them. As he neared, they saw his old and dirty clothes and a face that had lost its charm. It was Stuart! Peter was shocked. “Daddy, I need your help ... I’m hungry,” Stuart cried.
“Oh, my dear ... Please sit down first,” Peter said and brought some tea and bread for him. Then Peter asked why he was in such a poor situation.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Stuart said he took the money and went to the city.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Overwhelmed by (被震撼)their love, Stuart was moved to tears.

Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.
Chen found out about this after hearing one former resident express disappointment about its loss. Curious, he started to do research and tried out the methods he heard about from older people in the village. After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.
Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as creating some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice. Since 2017, people at home and abroad have taken an interest in this long-lost art form. To avoid being the last inheritor(传承者), Chen has been giving classes to some students at a primary school in Fuzhou with the support of local education authorities.
12. What do we know about Gaolou Mixian
A. It is mainly made of rice. B. It is stable in wet environment.

【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了非物质文化遗产——高楼米线，以及年轻人陈国锐为传承和发扬这一艺术所做的努力。
12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Gaolou Mixian uses rice paste (米糊) to glue together selected grains of transparent rice to create realistic figures or structures.(高楼米线用米糊把精选的透明米粒粘在一起，创造出逼真的人物或结构)”可知，高楼米线是用米糊粘大米制作的手工艺品，主要是由大米制成。故选A项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.(由于各种历史原因，高楼村的大多数人都没有把这门艺术传承下去，导致它在近70年前消失了)”可知，高楼米线由于无人传承，最终消失了。结合划线词所在句“Chen found out about this after hearing one former resident express disappointment about its loss.(陈是在听到一名前居民对失去它感到失望后才知道的)”和指代关系可推知，指示代词this指代的是上文中高楼米线这种艺术形式的消失。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一句话“To avoid being the last inheritor (传承者), Chen has been giving classes to some students at a primary school in Fuzhou with the support of local education authorities.(为了避免成为最后一名继承人，在当地教育部门的支持下，陈一直在福州一所小学给一些学生上课)”可知，为了培养更多的继承者，陈在给小学生上课。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合文章第一段“Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century, the intangible cultural heritage known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed down by a young man.(谁也没有想到，失去半个多世纪的非物质文化遗产——高楼米线，会被一个年轻人修复并传承下去)”可知，文章介绍了非物质文化遗产——高楼米线，以及年轻人陈国锐为传承和发扬这一艺术所做的努力。所以“A Long-lost Chinese Art Form and its Restoration.(失传已久的中国艺术形式及其复新)”是最佳标题。故选D项。

【36题详解】
考查介词。句意：有一次我数学不及格，我很生气。根据“failed”和“the mathematics”可推知，此处表示“数学不及格”，应用固定短语fail in，意为“在……中失败”，因此空处应用介词in。故填in。
【37题详解】

【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：但幸运的是，她没有对我大喊大叫。分析句子可知，空处修饰整个句子，结合she didn’t shout at me可知，应用fortunate的副词形式fortunately，意为“幸运地，幸运的是”。故填fortunately。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意：相反，她给了我一个鼓舞人心的演讲。分析句子可知，空处表示泛指，意为“一个”，应用不定冠词，且inspirational的发音以元音音素开头，因此应用an。故填an。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：现在我也教那些真正害怕数学的朋友。分析句子可知，空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词friends，先行词指人，在从句中作主语，因此应用关系代词who或that作引导词。故填who/that。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意：但是我妈妈教我数学的方式很有趣。分析句子可知，空处是修饰way的定语，描述方式的性质，因此应用-ing结尾的形容词interesting，意为“有趣的”。故填interesting。

考查名词。句意：由此，我的信心增加了，我很高兴最难的科目对我来说变成了一场游戏。分析句子可知，空处被my修饰，作句子的主语，因此应用confident的名词形式confidence，意为“自信，信心”，为不可数名词。故填confidence。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：成为一名工程师是我的抱负，它可以支持我度过艰难和挫折。分析句子可知，空处和空后的an engineer搭配，作句子的主语，是非谓语动词，且此处介绍的抽象的行为，因此应用become的动名词形式，且空处位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Becoming。

六、读后续写（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。
For 19-year-old Stuart’s father, Peter, his family was his strength and pride.“Together we achieve but divided, we fall,” he often told his four sons, and Stuart was the youngest. Besides family, there was something else that Peter, 56, cherished and believed kept his family united and strong. It was his treasured farm that was passed on from generation to generation.
One day, however, his 19-year-old son, Stuart, approached his dad and told him he wanted his share of the fortune so that he could move to the city and start living his life alone. It was a terrible blow to Peter, who never wished to see his family break.
“But, you don’t know much about city life. I am afraid you’d wander like a lost lamb. This is your family, and we will always support you,” Peter disappointedly said as soon as Stuart told him his intention to leave the house.
“Dad, I’m nineteen, and I have heard plenty about the city from my friends. I don’t want to waste my time and energy farming with you. I have a purpose in life, and I don’t want to become a farmer like you.”
Peter tried changing his mind. “Son, I can give you your share of the fortune. But dear, this is too early to decide.” However, Stuart insisted on going out, so Peter had to give him his share.
Three years went by. Neither Peter nor his family heard anything about Stuart. One day, when the family least expected it, they saw a young man walk toward them. As he neared, they saw his old and dirty clothes and a face that had lost its charm. It was Stuart! Peter was shocked. “Daddy, I need your help ... I’m hungry,” Stuart cried.
“Oh, my dear ... Please sit down first,” Peter said and brought some tea and bread for him. Then Peter asked why he was in such a poor situation.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Stuart said he took the money and went to the city.

Overwhelmed by (被震撼)their love, Stuart was moved to tears.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Stuart said he took the money and went to the city. He started a small business and wanted to achieve big success quickly. Thus he could come back to family as a wealthy businessman. At first, everything went smoothly, but before long he failed in his business and lost all his money. Peter took Stuart to his room and said. “You might have left us, but we never forgot you. Your mom regularly changed the bed sheets and curtains like we did when you were here. I knew you would come back to us one day.”
Overwhelmed by their love, Stuart was moved to tears. From that day on, Stuart dedicated his time and energy to the farm and worked hard to prove himself worthy of his family’s love. He learned new farming techniques and took every little step to improve their income. Stuart realized that family was more important than money and success and that there would be no success without the love or support of family.
【解析】
