·模块二 阅读单选（名校期末真题）进阶练20篇
（一）直接理解题
这种题目比较简单，只要通读全文，了解文中所叙述的重要事实或细节就可以解答出来，有的甚至可以从文章的原句中直接找到答案。此类题目的出题形式很多，例如：
（1）Which of the following statements is true ／ false
（2）Which of the following is（not）mentioned
（3）How many ／ How much ／ Where ／ How ／ What……
（4）What does the writer think about
（5）Which is the right order of the events given in thepassage
要快速辨认和记忆事实或细节，就需要恰当地使用查阅的方法。查阅是读者在对材料有所了解的情况下进行的，它的特点是带着问题去寻找答案，往往与略读综合使用，具体方法与步骤如下：
（1）略读材料，了解原文大意，掌握其中心意思或主旨。
（2）按文章的体裁、作者写作的组织模式及有关信息词，如for example，first，second……预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。
（3）将自己的精力放在寻找所需要的细节上，快速通篇阅读，眼睛自左至右、自下而上呈Z形扫视，待找到含有相关细节的句子时，就要放慢速度，仔细核对，比较内容，直至找到答案。
（二）语义理解题
在阅读中，我们经常会遇到一些生词，需要根据上下文猜测它们的意思。此类问题考查学生紧扣原文，根据上下文语境判断单词、词语或短句意义的能力。常见的题型有：直接对生词进行解释；对多义词或短语在文章具体语言环境中的意义作出准确判断；对英语中的一些格言或谚语进行解释；对文中一些代词的指代对象作出界定等。这种题型常见的设题方式如下：
（1）The underlined word（phrase）in the passage means______.
（2）The word“it/them”in the first paragraph refers to______.
（3）The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means____.
（4）What does the underlined word“…”refer to______.
（5）By … the writer means______.
在做此类题时，考生应紧扣原文，根据上下文语境进行判断，切不要望文生义或断章取义，也不能只选择自己熟悉的意思。猜测词义的常见方法有：
1）根据构词法猜测词义；
（2）根据上下文猜测词义；
（3）根据定义或解释猜测词义；
（4）根据同义词、反义词以及对比关系猜测词义；
（5）根据生活常识猜测词义。
（三）逻辑推理题
推理判断试题属于深层阅读理解题。它要求考生尽量考虑文中全部信息或事实，在通篇理解文章的基础上，严格按照作者提供的信息推断出作者的言外之意。这种题型常见的设题方式有：
（1）From the text，it can be inferred that______.
（2）The passage suggests that______.
（3）Which of the following best describes______.
（4）The writer’s attitude towards…is______.
（5）From the text，we learn that______.
这种题目有一定难度，解答时必须根据上下文及相互间的关系或对整篇文章进行深层理解后，才能找到答案。有时甚至还得联系作者的意图、态度等文外之意加以推理。解此类题目可从以下几方面入手：
（1）根据常识判断。即解题时，除弄清文意外，还需借助生活常识、风土人情、传说掌故、名人轶事等进行判断。
（2）根据知识判断。即解题时，运用一些一般性知识，如天文、地理、文学、艺术、科技等自然科学和社会科学知识。
（3）根据计算判断。即解题时，运用一些数学知识进行和差、面积、体积、速度等方面的运算。
（4）根据情节判断。即解题时，从情节所提供的基本事实出发，寻找一定规律，如时间关系、条件关系、因果关系、比较关系、转折关系等作为推理根据。这种题目最容易出现，考生要从时间、地点、事件的情节安排与发展中，深入探讨其逻辑关系及隐喻、引申等因素。
（四）归纳总结题
这种题型要求学生在理解全文的基础上，对文章进行归纳、概括或评价。解这种题目时，不能只凭文中的只言片语而断章取义，如涉及文章的标题（title）、主题（main idea）、结论（conclusion）、结局（end）等有关问题，都需要在细读全文的基础上，结合所学语言知识进行逻辑思维、推理、判断，从而获取文章中的内在信息。常见的设题方式有：
（1）The general idea of the passage is about______.
2）The main idea of the article is______.
（3）The main purpose of this selection is______.
4）The passage suggests that______.
5）Which of the following best states the theme of thepassage
具体解题时，应注意一些技巧：
（1）首先看短文的开头和结尾，确定短文题材，预测其内容。每段的第一句话往往会提供重要信息，可以帮助我们搜索各段落乃至整篇文章的大意。
（2）速读全文，整体理解短文大意，抓住关键词语，弄清文章的主旨。
（3）根据已知短文内容，着手解题。可先将文后的选择题看一下，然后带着问题再去阅读。这样做，一方面有助于对文章进一步理解，另一方面可以有针对性地从文章中寻找答案。
（4）迅速复读全文，检查自己的理解是否正确，所选答案是否前后矛盾。通过全面考虑，最后确定答案。

The film, first released in 1983, displays many aspects of traditional Chinese culture. The Legend of Sealed Book tells the story of how two boys fight against three fox spirits. The look of the three fox spirits comes from Peking Opera makeup (造型). The waters and mountains are in the style of traditional Chinese ink wash paintings.
China’s first ink wash animation (动画) actually came out in 1960. The film Little Tadpole (蝌蚪) Looking for Mummy has all the elements of the animals, plants and rocks drawn with ink and brush. The animators (动画制作者) learned from the great artist Qi Baishi. The film is only about 15 minutes long, but it took lots of work. Without computers, the animators had to draw everything by hand. To save time, the clever artists stamped the tadpoles’ bodies on paper with a special seal.
In the past few years, ink wash animations have become popular in China. Now, animators are combining (结合) ink wash painting with computer technology. For example, Fog Hills of Five Elements, which came out in 2020, is in the ink wash style, just like Ma Liang and His Magical Writing Brush. It’s about five elemental envoys fighting against evil.

（2022上·江苏苏州·九年级星海实验中学校考期末）Reading can open a world of joy for students, and one North Carolina principal wants to spread that moment of happiness to them on their birthday.
Glenn Cook, principal of Pleasant Ridge Elementary School in Gastonia, North Carolina, came up with an idea to give each student a book on their birthday. With about 900 students attending Pleasant Ridge, it is not an easy task, but Cook says he’s ready to “go big or go home”. He is going to include every student in this project.
“I didn’t have a lot of kids’ books,” said Cook. So I put the idea online, and I wanted to see if any of my trends needed to clean off their bookshelves at home. I was hoping to get maybe 50 books for the first round of birthdays. The number of books Cook received was surprising. “We’re probably getting maybe 500 books,” said Cook. There are so many books taking up space all over his office.
The idea started when Cook attended a professional development event. He asked another principal for advice. This principal told him that at her school, she gave her students a pencil on their birthday.
He wanted to take this idea to the next level, so he began reading himself. He came up with the idea that a principal should share his excitement and love for reading. The goal of giving these books to students is to find a book that’s right for each one, so they can experience the happiness of reading.
Local businesses have joined the project to donate books. Michelle Clear, a parent at Pleasant Ridge, decided to support Cook’s project and offer her store as a book donation center. “Reading just opens up so many ways in kids’ lives,” Clear noted. Hopefully, this will get across the nation to call on more people to donate books.

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级统考期末）By drawing patterns (图案) on the surface of a cup of tea, chabaixi, an ancient Chinese tea trick displayed in a recent TV drama, has become popular for its clear similarity with modern latte art (咖啡拉花艺术). However, ten years ago, this special technique was close to disappearing completely. Zhang Zhifeng, a practitioner of chabaixi, found scenes of chabaixi in the drama aroused great interest among ordinary people.
Chabaixi can create endless patterns such as bamboos and mountains or even calligraphy. There are over a dozen steps, from grinding (碾碎) tea for fine powder, to pouring boiled water, stirring the mixture for thick froth (泡沫), and finally drawing the patterns. It is different from making latte because people use clear water as the object to put into the cup instead of milk. But when the water touches the surface of whipped (搅打起泡沫的) tea, it turns into a white color and disappears in 20 minutes. The process before the drawing is known as the tea-making technique, diancha. The quality of diancha is important to whether patterns can be successfully produced later.
“Chabaixi is one of the countless forms of tea-making techniques in China. The importance of chabaixi is not only that this technique is unique in the world, but also it gives us a window into people’s lifestyle in the Song Dynasty, a period when leisure activities in some ways resemble what we have now.” Zhang said.
Before chabaixi was discovered by TY audiences, the technique was listed as part of China Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2017, after it was recovered by Zhang Zhifeng. He started researching the origins of chabaixi in the 1980s and brought the technique back in 2009 after decades of trials and practice. Zhang spent nearly 30 years studying and researching the origins and making of tea but for him it was all worthwhile.
“This technique is key to the tea culture of the Song Dynasty, and it would be a shame to let it fade. This technique must be passed on to the next generations so they can understand its history.” Zhang said.
16．What do we know about chabaixi
A．It is painted with whipped milk instead of clear water.
B．It is based on latte art which has clear similarity to each other.
C．The technique was listed as part of World’s Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2017.

（2022上·江苏南通·九年级统考期末）Many volunteers have helped the old learn to use smartphones. But for all their goodwill, the service has some weak points. It takes much time and effort, and more importantly, older people can easily forget what they’ve learned and the volunteers have to do the same job time and time again.
Liu Siyuan from Beijing 101 Middle School noticed the problems and tried to solve them with a guidebook. The 16-year-old founded a volunteer group called SilverHair. Its seven members spent around half a year writing a 300-page book called May I Show You How to Use Smartphones.
The group members made a survey of more than 1,000 senior citizens and talked with many in the Home for the Old and found out what the older people care most about with smartphones. “How to use Wechat” hit the top of the list as the app covers many parts of life such as chatting, money transfers （转账）and health code（健康码）checking. These make up one chapter of the book. The other nine chapters include the basic uses of phones, online shopping, using online maps and more. To make the book more friendly to older readers, Liu also made the pages light yellow and the characters big.
“Many senior citizens are resistant to smartphones at first, but they are familiar with books, which can make them more ready to learn,” said Liu. “And besides, they can look in the book any time they need, just like using a dictionary.”
The SilverHair members have printed out 500 copies at their own costs and handed them all out. They’ll soon start working on the second edition （版本）which includes more guidance such as hospital registration （挂号）and photo editing （编辑）. They also hope for money support from the public so they can print more copies and help more people.

（2022上·江苏·九年级统考期末）As we walk the “path of life”, we may sometimes wish to be alone with our own thoughts, for quiet moments of reflection（反省）can lead to personal improvement. However, when we want to be alone, we must be careful that we do not always jump into our own world. Social life is also important to all of us.
As we live in social groups, there are many benefits of friendship that we can enjoy. Generally speaking, close friendships have three “fruits”: they may comfort the heart, advise the head and help us achieve the goals we set for ourselves. Through friendship, we can become happier, wiser and more satisfied humans.
The first fruit of friendship is the peace that comes from sharing with friends our joy, sadness, success and failure. Here, friendship has a double advantage—happiness takes on a greater meaning and a trouble shared becomes a trouble halved! Naturally, this kind of openness results from a close friendship.We know that our friends will both respect our feelings and treasure these moments of closeness.
The second fruit of friendship is the better understanding and judgement（评判）that may be achieved through conversations with well-meaning and wise friends. We often find it easier to recognize other people’s weaknesses than our own. As a result, if we are guided only by our own feelings, our judgements might be one-sided. On the other hand, our friends are better able to offer advice on important decisions that we all have to make. This helps make our thoughts clearer and brings us a more thorough（彻底的）understanding of our problems .
The third fruit of friendship is the help that a friend may offer in many different ways. Sometimes a friend is even known as our “second self”. There are so many things in life that can only be achieved with the help of friends. Friends may have many different ideas and skills.
Finally, it should be pointed out that enjoying the company of a crowd is not the same as being with friends. Friends should be carefully chosen and relationships carefully developed. In this way, we can better walk the “path of life” with the comfort, advice and help from our trusted friends.
38．According to the passage, close friendships have a lot of “fruits” EXCEPT ________.
A．making our hearts peaceful B．achieving our goals with friends’ help
C．guiding our own feelings easily D．understanding our problems better

A．it is more difficult to realize other people’s weaknesses than ourselves
B．our judgements won’t be one-sided if we are guided only by our feelings
C．our friends are able to offer better advice on our important decisions

When Rip Van Winkle woke up, it was bright and sunny outside. The strangers on the mountain were gone, and there was no sign that they had ever been there. He began worrying that his wife would get angry because he had spent the whole night asleep on the mountain.
Rip looked for his gun, but all he could find was a rusty （生锈的）old one. He believed that someone must have stolen his gun and replaced it. His dog, Wolf, was nowhere to be found. Strangest of all was that Rip’s beard was, now a foot long. Rip tried to trace down his footsteps, only to find that the features of the landscape had changed. Finally, hunger drove him down the mountain.
When he arrived at the village, Rip found that it was not the same as before. It had grown larger, and all the shops and houses looked different. There were more people, but he did not know anyone. A group of children began following him and pointing at his beard.
Rip went back to his home, expecting to hear complaints from his wife. But when he arrived, his tidy house had fallen into a state of disrepair （破败）, Wolf was in the yard, and he looked old and weak. It did not know Rip and began barking at him.
Now Rip felt even more uncertain. He hurried to the old inn where his old friends would hang out. He found the inn to be entirely different. There used to be an old painting of King George III hanging above the inn. Now, however, a picture of a General George Washington has taken its place. He also noticed that people here seemed louder and more energetic, unlike his friends, who used to sit and discuss matters gently.
Rip’s strange appearance drew attention from the villagers. The men at the new inn asked him if he had come to interrupt the election （选举）. Rip was at a loss when hearing the question.

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级统考期末）Boris, a foreign student at Communication University of China, often shares his experiences of Chinese culture on his vlog (视频博客).
In one video, for example, Boris shared how he had learned the Chinese word “dongxi”, he translated each part separately into “east west”. And he introduced one theory (说法) about how “dongxi” came to mean “things”. He told people that all marketplaces in ancient Chinese cities were set up along a single road that ran from east to west. So when you would say “qu mai dong xi”, you’d be saying, “I’m going to buy things.”
Some other videos show his reading Chinese poems and performing kung fu in Chinese traditional custom, which are quite welcome among his 40,000 followers.
“Many of my followers are learning Chinese,” Boris said. “But sadly, they know little about Chinese culture and the country.”
Like many foreigners, Boris once believed that all Chinese could perform kung fu, flying onto roofs and walking over walls. He thought the country was not that developed. But after he got a scholarship (奖学金) to study in China in 2019, his view changed. “China has entered a new period, but many people’s impressions of China are still stuck in the 1970s,” Boris said. “That’s why I started to shoot vlogs to share Chinese culture in 2019.”
Until now, Boris has posted more than 40 Chinese culture vlogs online. But making these vlogs is not easy. Take reading the poem Second Farewell to Cambridge by Xu Zhimo as an example.
“I can understand and read every word in the poem,” Boris said. “But to touch readers, I need to use proper feelings while reading.” So he needed to look for much background information and make his feelings suit each part of the poem.
Though shooting these vlogs takes lots of time, the young man feels proud that his vlogs have inspired many people. Boris said that he wanted to continue bridging the differences between two cultures. “This goal may not be achieved easily, but I will spare no efforts to do my part.”
54．Through the vlogs, Boris mainly wants to ________.
A．teach foreigners Chinese
B．introduce a Chinese university
C．sell Chinese products
D．share his experiences in China

B．making up some sentences
C．knowing its cultural background
D．comparing it with other words
56．What inspired Boris to shoot vlogs
A．The need to show the real China.
B．It is a task as a scholarship receiver.
C．The popularity of Chinese culture.
D．A chance to be a successful vlogger.
57．Why is the poem Second Farewell to Cambridge is mentioned to

It was October 1837. Samuel Morse and I, Alfred Vail, sat in our workshop. We were studying how to turn dots (●) and dashes (—) into a message.
Morse’s first idea was to tap out numbers-one tap for “1”, a long tap and two short ones for “12”, and so on. Then he made a big list of words and gave their numbers—“342”meant “train” and so on. But I wasn’t so sure this was the best way. His word book was huge. It would take hours to look up codes (代码). Too slow!
“Why couldn’t the dots and dashes stand for letters instead ” I shared my better idea.
“How could that work ” Morse asked.
“Well, for example, two dots could be ‘D’ instead of ‘2’. There are only 26 letters—why not give each one a dot-and-dash code That way, words could be tapped out directly, letter by letter. Imagine the time saved!”
Morse snorted (哼了一声), really unhappy after all of his work on the word list. Just to try it, I wrote down the letters and gave each letter a tap code. Then I tapped out a message, and Morse deciphered (破译) it. Quickly!
He read out my message: “To tell the truth, I think this saves much time.” He nodded. “Yes, I see your point. Not bad.”
But I’d noticed something else about our code. “That message had a lot of T’s,” I said. “The code for a T is dash-dash dot…I’ll bet I could have done that even faster if T didn’t take so long to tap.”
Ten minutes later I was in the local newspaper office. With the help of a printer, I was soon back with a list of letters in order of how often they are used in English.
“Let it be so! It makes good sense to use the shortest codes for the most common letters. I see E is the favourite, so a single dot for E and a dash for T. To start, a dot-dash for A．” Morse said, patting me heartily on the back. “You impress me! Vail, you’re a genius (天才). ”
I smiled. I wouldn’t say so out loud, but I had to agree with him.
58．In Morse Code, the word “TEA” should be ________.
A．— ● ● — B．● ● — — C．● — — ● D．● — ● —

C．confident and creative D．careful but doubtful

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级校联考期末）As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, and Spanish, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6, 000-7, 000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization(UNESCO).
To prevent language loss, scholars (学者) from a number of organizations—UNESCO and National Geographic among them—have been recording dying languages and the cultures for many years.
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who studies the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Recording the Thangmi language and culture is just a beginning for Turin. He hopes to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he does not simply record these voices before they disappear.
At the University of Cambridge, Turin discovered a lot of important materials—including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now, through the two organizations that he has founded—the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project—Turin has started a campaign to make such documents (文献), found in libraries and stores around the world, not just for scholars but for the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.
61．Many scholars are trying their best to ________.
A．protect global languages
B．save disappearing languages
C．search for language communities
D．set up language research organizations
62．What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指代)
A．Having full records of the languages.
B．Writing books on language teaching.
C．Telling stories about language users.
D．Living with the local speakers.
63．Turin finishes his book according to ________.
A．the cultural studies in India
B．the documents at Yale
C．the language research in Bhutan
D．his personal experience in Nepal

The British are famous for lots of things: Shakespeare, tea, Big Ben, the changeable weather and poor dancing skills. But when it comes to food, one of their most famous dishes is, without doubt, fish and chips.
The best place to go for your fish and chips is a fish and chips shop. The people who work there are often the owners of the shops, usually a husband and a wife, with part-time help from others. One of the most famous fish and chips shops is Harry Ramsden ‘s, which is based in the north of England.
Ordering fish and chips can be difficult for a tourist in Britain. For a start, you’ll probably be in an area of Britain that has few tourists, with locals who are not used to speaking to foreigners. Just smile politely and say, “A portion of fish and chips to take away, please. “ When you see them with a vinegar（醋） bottle, quickly shout “Just a bit, please”. So they don’t drown（浸泡） your chips in vinegar. If you see them wrapping（包裹） your fish and chips in newspaper, don’t be surprised. It’s nothing special.
So, why are fish and chips so popular in Britain People have been trying to answer this question for a long time. After all, fish and chips are eaten by everyone in Britain, from ladies in fur coats to workers in blue overalls. Some say it’s the smell of delicious fried fish and potatoes. Others say it’s the taste — the mix of fried fish, fried potatoes, vinegar and salt. Some say it’s the comforting feeling that you get from carrying that bag of warm food home on a cold winter day. And others say it’s simply because a meal of fish and chips offers the most useful way of filling you up for such little money.
The strange thing about fish and chips is that the British in general don’t like seafood. For them, it’s something alien. They don’t like its shape （too many heads and eyes）, its smell （too fishy）, all the bones （too difficult to eat） and the funny-looking arms and legs （too strange）. This probably explains why fried fish is so popular. Since the fish has been covered in batter （面糊） and fried, it looks nothing like anything that ever lived in the sea. So, are you having some fish and chips
69．In Britain, owners of fish and chips shops usually ________.
A．put no salt on the chips B．wrap the food in newspaper

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级统考期末）I guess you could say that acting is in my blood as my mother and my father are both actors, my grandfather was a theatre musician and my grandmother was a singer and dancer. I suppose it seemed natural for me to perform for family and friends and I certainly wasn’t shy while growing up. I actually used to enjoy the attention and I still have many enjoyable memories of the whole family singing and dancing together.
That’s why it came as no surprise that I started going to drama school from the young age of six. I attended classes there every Saturday for almost 10 years. We were taught how to sing and dance, as well as act, so I was quite good by my teens.
Once I’d left school, I went to drama school in London full-time to do a degree. I must say that at that time, and for a period of about six months, I needed a break. Thad spent my whole childhood acting and it felt like I had missed so much fun.
So I started partying with friends, danced the nights away and slept late most mornings. It was only when my teacher told me that I was on my final warning that I realized it was time to stop. Partying was great but I was about to lose everything I had worked so hard for all these years.
After the shock of that realization, I got my act together very quickly, went back to classes and workshops and soon after, I ended up graduating with a first. I had always been confident about my acting skills but it was then that I felt truly ready to get myself out there professionally. A few months later, The Royal Shakespeare Company gave me my first real role and I acted together with some great names in the world of the stage.

（1）略读材料，了解原文大意，掌握其中心意思或主旨。
（2）按文章的体裁、作者写作的组织模式及有关信息词，如for example，first，second……预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。
（3）将自己的精力放在寻找所需要的细节上，快速通篇阅读，眼睛自左至右、自下而上呈Z形扫视，待找到含有相关细节的句子时，就要放慢速度，仔细核对，比较内容，直至找到答案。
（二）语义理解题
在阅读中，我们经常会遇到一些生词，需要根据上下文猜测它们的意思。此类问题考查学生紧扣原文，根据上下文语境判断单词、词语或短句意义的能力。常见的题型有：直接对生词进行解释；对多义词或短语在文章具体语言环境中的意义作出准确判断；对英语中的一些格言或谚语进行解释；对文中一些代词的指代对象作出界定等。这种题型常见的设题方式如下：
（1）The underlined word（phrase）in the passage means______.
（2）The word“it/them”in the first paragraph refers to______.
（3）The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means____.
（4）What does the underlined word“…”refer to______.
（5）By … the writer means______.
在做此类题时，考生应紧扣原文，根据上下文语境进行判断，切不要望文生义或断章取义，也不能只选择自己熟悉的意思。猜测词义的常见方法有：
1）根据构词法猜测词义；
（2）根据上下文猜测词义；
（3）根据定义或解释猜测词义；
（4）根据同义词、反义词以及对比关系猜测词义；
（5）根据生活常识猜测词义。
（三）逻辑推理题
推理判断试题属于深层阅读理解题。它要求考生尽量考虑文中全部信息或事实，在通篇理解文章的基础上，严格按照作者提供的信息推断出作者的言外之意。这种题型常见的设题方式有：
（1）From the text，it can be inferred that______.
（2）The passage suggests that______.
（3）Which of the following best describes______.
（4）The writer’s attitude towards…is______.
（5）From the text，we learn that______.
这种题目有一定难度，解答时必须根据上下文及相互间的关系或对整篇文章进行深层理解后，才能找到答案。有时甚至还得联系作者的意图、态度等文外之意加以推理。解此类题目可从以下几方面入手：
（1）根据常识判断。即解题时，除弄清文意外，还需借助生活常识、风土人情、传说掌故、名人轶事等进行判断。
（2）根据知识判断。即解题时，运用一些一般性知识，如天文、地理、文学、艺术、科技等自然科学和社会科学知识。
（3）根据计算判断。即解题时，运用一些数学知识进行和差、面积、体积、速度等方面的运算。
（4）根据情节判断。即解题时，从情节所提供的基本事实出发，寻找一定规律，如时间关系、条件关系、因果关系、比较关系、转折关系等作为推理根据。这种题目最容易出现，考生要从时间、地点、事件的情节安排与发展中，深入探讨其逻辑关系及隐喻、引申等因素。
（四）归纳总结题
这种题型要求学生在理解全文的基础上，对文章进行归纳、概括或评价。解这种题目时，不能只凭文中的只言片语而断章取义，如涉及文章的标题（title）、主题（main idea）、结论（conclusion）、结局（end）等有关问题，都需要在细读全文的基础上，结合所学语言知识进行逻辑思维、推理、判断，从而获取文章中的内在信息。常见的设题方式有：

（2）速读全文，整体理解短文大意，抓住关键词语，弄清文章的主旨。
（3）根据已知短文内容，着手解题。可先将文后的选择题看一下，然后带着问题再去阅读。这样做，一方面有助于对文章进一步理解，另一方面可以有针对性地从文章中寻找答案。

The film, first released in 1983, displays many aspects of traditional Chinese culture. The Legend of Sealed Book tells the story of how two boys fight against three fox spirits. The look of the three fox spirits comes from Peking Opera makeup (造型). The waters and mountains are in the style of traditional Chinese ink wash paintings.
China’s first ink wash animation (动画) actually came out in 1960. The film Little Tadpole (蝌蚪) Looking for Mummy has all the elements of the animals, plants and rocks drawn with ink and brush. The animators (动画制作者) learned from the great artist Qi Baishi. The film is only about 15 minutes long, but it took lots of work. Without computers, the animators had to draw everything by hand. To save time, the clever artists stamped the tadpoles’ bodies on paper with a special seal.
In the past few years, ink wash animations have become popular in China. Now, animators are combining (结合) ink wash painting with computer technology. For example, Fog Hills of Five Elements, which came out in 2020, is in the ink wash style, just like Ma Liang and His Magical Writing Brush. It’s about five elemental envoys fighting against evil.

（2022上·江苏苏州·九年级星海实验中学校考期末）Reading can open a world of joy for students, and one North Carolina principal wants to spread that moment of happiness to them on their birthday.
Glenn Cook, principal of Pleasant Ridge Elementary School in Gastonia, North Carolina, came up with an idea to give each student a book on their birthday. With about 900 students attending Pleasant Ridge, it is not an easy task, but Cook says he’s ready to “go big or go home”. He is going to include every student in this project.
“I didn’t have a lot of kids’ books,” said Cook. So I put the idea online, and I wanted to see if any of my trends needed to clean off their bookshelves at home. I was hoping to get maybe 50 books for the first round of birthdays. The number of books Cook received was surprising. “We’re probably getting maybe 500 books,” said Cook. There are so many books taking up space all over his office.
The idea started when Cook attended a professional development event. He asked another principal for advice. This principal told him that at her school, she gave her students a pencil on their birthday.
He wanted to take this idea to the next level, so he began reading himself. He came up with the idea that a principal should share his excitement and love for reading. The goal of giving these books to students is to find a book that’s right for each one, so they can experience the happiness of reading.
Local businesses have joined the project to donate books. Michelle Clear, a parent at Pleasant Ridge, decided to support Cook’s project and offer her store as a book donation center. “Reading just opens up so many ways in kids’ lives,” Clear noted. Hopefully, this will get across the nation to call on more people to donate books.
4．What can we learn from “go big or go home” in Paragraph 2
A．Cook wants to collect many great books. B．Cook has made up his mind to run this project.
C．Cook will visit each student’s home. D．Cook will face a lot of problems.
5．Why did Cook carry out the project
A．To encourage students to read. B．To advertise his school online.
C．To celebrate students’ birthdays. D．To help friends clean the bookshelves.
6．What is the biggest problem when carrying out the project
A．Not enough money. B．Not enough kids’ books.
C．No support from parents. D．Not enough space to put so many books.
7．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．A principal is carrying out a big project.
B．Reading makes students and principal close.
C．A principal gives students a special birthday gift.
D．Reading brings students happiness and excitement.
【答案】4．B 5．A 6．B 7．C
【导语】本文主要讲库克校长送给学生一份特别的生日礼物。
4．词句猜测题。根据“With about 900 students attending Pleasant Ridge, it is not an easy task, but Cook says he’s ready to ‘go big or go home’. He is going to include every student in this project.”可知，在这900名学生每人一本书不是一项容易的任务，但库克表示他已经准备“要么做大，要么回家”。所以库克已经下定决心经营这个项目，故选B。
5．细节理解题。根据“The goal of giving these books to students is to find a book that’s right for each one, so they can experience the happiness of reading.”可知，把这些书送给学生的目的是找到一本适合他们的书，这样他们就能体验到阅读的乐趣。所以库克执行这个项目是因为他想鼓励学生阅读，故选A。
6．细节理解题。根据“‘I didn’t have a lot of kids’ books,’ said Cook.”可知，库克说他没有很多儿童读物。所以执行项目时最大的问题是没有足够的儿童读物，故选B。
7．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，都是在讲库克校长为在学生生日上给他们每人一本书这一项目而努力的过程。所以这篇文章主要讲校长送给学生一份特别的生日礼物，故选C。

The woman says, “You wait right here. I’ll be right back.”
She returns with a saw（锯子）. There’s a whirring. A circle in the wooden fence drops out of sight.
“Dad! Sandy just drilled out a hole in the fence so Sandy and I can talk!” Daniel spins around.
I hadn’t known her name was Sandy. We’ve lived here a month before Daniel was born.
Daniel’s and Sandy’s murmuring voices continue. Whenever Daniel is outside, he circles near the fence that isn’t a fence any more. Some days my son just goes to stand at the hole, yelling, “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” Sometimes I hear bits of their talk.
“We painted a ghost at school.”
Or: ‘‘Wheeler and Jackson were playing football, and they told me I couldn’t play.”
“That wasn’t very nice,” says Sandy. “Did that hurt your feelings Did you let them know that ”
I can’t hear how he replies. A moment of envy runs through me. He never talks about his school things with me.

A month later, Sandy leaves to care for her mother in Kansas. She left behind a box of presents: a coloring book, sidewalk chalk, the missing orange part in the Hot Wheels track. When I look at Daniel, he’s looking down at his shoes. He sometimes wanders down to the fence. Instead of calling “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” he cries. “Hello! Helloooooo!”

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级统考期末）By drawing patterns (图案) on the surface of a cup of tea, chabaixi, an ancient Chinese tea trick displayed in a recent TV drama, has become popular for its clear similarity with modern latte art (咖啡拉花艺术). However, ten years ago, this special technique was close to disappearing completely. Zhang Zhifeng, a practitioner of chabaixi, found scenes of chabaixi in the drama aroused great interest among ordinary people.
Chabaixi can create endless patterns such as bamboos and mountains or even calligraphy. There are over a dozen steps, from grinding (碾碎) tea for fine powder, to pouring boiled water, stirring the mixture for thick froth (泡沫), and finally drawing the patterns. It is different from making latte because people use clear water as the object to put into the cup instead of milk. But when the water touches the surface of whipped (搅打起泡沫的) tea, it turns into a white color and disappears in 20 minutes. The process before the drawing is known as the tea-making technique, diancha. The quality of diancha is important to whether patterns can be successfully produced later.
“Chabaixi is one of the countless forms of tea-making techniques in China. The importance of chabaixi is not only that this technique is unique in the world, but also it gives us a window into people’s lifestyle in the Song Dynasty, a period when leisure activities in some ways resemble what we have now.” Zhang said.
Before chabaixi was discovered by TY audiences, the technique was listed as part of China Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2017, after it was recovered by Zhang Zhifeng. He started researching the origins of chabaixi in the 1980s and brought the technique back in 2009 after decades of trials and practice. Zhang spent nearly 30 years studying and researching the origins and making of tea but for him it was all worthwhile.
“This technique is key to the tea culture of the Song Dynasty, and it would be a shame to let it fade. This technique must be passed on to the next generations so they can understand its history.” Zhang said.
16．What do we know about chabaixi
A．It is painted with whipped milk instead of clear water.
B．It is based on latte art which has clear similarity to each other.
C．The technique was listed as part of World’s Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2017.
D．The tea-making skills matters a lot to whether we can successfully produce patterns.

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级统考期末）Emergency dispatchers (调度员) often receive calls that aren’t, well, emergencies.
But something felt off to dispatcher Tim Teneyck of Oregon, Ohio, when a woman called to order a pizza on November 13. He told her she had the wrong number, only to quickly realize this had been no mistake on her part. In a recording of the call, we can hear them both on the line “You called 911 to order a pizza ” Tim asked, “This is the wrong number to call for a pizza.” “No no, no…you’re not understanding,” the woman said.
When the woman replied with her apartment information, everything became clear. She didn’t want a pizza at all, she needed help. But she couldn’t tell him that directly because she wasn’t in a safe place.
While Tim has never received a call like hers in his 14 years of service, he understood her message. After a few more questions, he said, “I’m getting you now. ” As it turned out, the woman was in an apartment with a man who was physically hurting her mother. She knew he would run away if he discovered she was calling 911, so she pretended to order a pizza instead. When Tim sent officers her way, he had them turn off their sirens (警报器) before they arrived.
The officers arrested (逮捕) 56-year-old Simon Lopez who was charged with domestic violence (被控家暴).
Oregon Police Chief Michael Navarre said they couldn’t have helped this woman without Tim’s help. He added that it was important for people in danger to “somehow or another express to the police dispatcher that they are in trouble, and this woman did that words, but with the tone (语气) of her voice.” She did that not with her “Other dispatchers… told me they wouldn’t have picked up on this, ” Tim said.
Of course, the other hero is this clever woman who saved her mom by keeping a cool head. It couldn’t have been easy in such a stressful situation, which just makes her braver!

（2022上·江苏南通·九年级统考期末）Many volunteers have helped the old learn to use smartphones. But for all their goodwill, the service has some weak points. It takes much time and effort, and more importantly, older people can easily forget what they’ve learned and the volunteers have to do the same job time and time again.
Liu Siyuan from Beijing 101 Middle School noticed the problems and tried to solve them with a guidebook. The 16-year-old founded a volunteer group called SilverHair. Its seven members spent around half a year writing a 300-page book called May I Show You How to Use Smartphones.
The group members made a survey of more than 1,000 senior citizens and talked with many in the Home for the Old and found out what the older people care most about with smartphones. “How to use Wechat” hit the top of the list as the app covers many parts of life such as chatting, money transfers （转账）and health code（健康码）checking. These make up one chapter of the book. The other nine chapters include the basic uses of phones, online shopping, using online maps and more. To make the book more friendly to older readers, Liu also made the pages light yellow and the characters big.
“Many senior citizens are resistant to smartphones at first, but they are familiar with books, which can make them more ready to learn,” said Liu. “And besides, they can look in the book any time they need, just like using a dictionary.”
The SilverHair members have printed out 500 copies at their own costs and handed them all out. They’ll soon start working on the second edition （版本）which includes more guidance such as hospital registration （挂号）and photo editing （编辑）. They also hope for money support from the public so they can print more copies and help more people.

（2022上·江苏·九年级统考期末）As we walk the “path of life”, we may sometimes wish to be alone with our own thoughts, for quiet moments of reflection（反省）can lead to personal improvement. However, when we want to be alone, we must be careful that we do not always jump into our own world. Social life is also important to all of us.
As we live in social groups, there are many benefits of friendship that we can enjoy. Generally speaking, close friendships have three “fruits”: they may comfort the heart, advise the head and help us achieve the goals we set for ourselves. Through friendship, we can become happier, wiser and more satisfied humans.
The first fruit of friendship is the peace that comes from sharing with friends our joy, sadness, success and failure. Here, friendship has a double advantage—happiness takes on a greater meaning and a trouble shared becomes a trouble halved! Naturally, this kind of openness results from a close friendship.We know that our friends will both respect our feelings and treasure these moments of closeness.
The second fruit of friendship is the better understanding and judgement（评判）that may be achieved through conversations with well-meaning and wise friends. We often find it easier to recognize other people’s weaknesses than our own. As a result, if we are guided only by our own feelings, our judgements might be one-sided. On the other hand, our friends are better able to offer advice on important decisions that we all have to make. This helps make our thoughts clearer and brings us a more thorough（彻底的）understanding of our problems .
The third fruit of friendship is the help that a friend may offer in many different ways. Sometimes a friend is even known as our “second self”. There are so many things in life that can only be achieved with the help of friends. Friends may have many different ideas and skills.
Finally, it should be pointed out that enjoying the company of a crowd is not the same as being with friends. Friends should be carefully chosen and relationships carefully developed. In this way, we can better walk the “path of life” with the comfort, advice and help from our trusted friends.
38．According to the passage, close friendships have a lot of “fruits” EXCEPT ________.
A．making our hearts peaceful B．achieving our goals with friends’ help
C．guiding our own feelings easily D．understanding our problems better

A．it is more difficult to realize other people’s weaknesses than ourselves
B．our judgements won’t be one-sided if we are guided only by our feelings
C．our friends are able to offer better advice on our important decisions
D．it gives us a chance to completely understand our friends’ problems

A．Walking the Path of Life B．Understanding of Friendship
C．Advice on Making Friends D．Improvements of Social Life

（2022上·江苏南京·九年级统考期末）Boris, a foreign student at Communication University of China, often shares his experiences of Chinese culture on his vlog (视频博客).
In one video, for example, Boris shared how he had learned the Chinese word “dongxi”, he translated each part separately into “east west”. And he introduced one theory (说法) about how “dongxi” came to mean “things”. He told people that all marketplaces in ancient Chinese cities were set up along a single road that ran from east to west. So when you would say “qu mai dong xi”, you’d be saying, “I’m going to buy things.”
Some other videos show his reading Chinese poems and performing kung fu in Chinese traditional custom, which are quite welcome among his 40,000 followers.
“Many of my followers are learning Chinese,” Boris said. “But sadly, they know little about Chinese culture and the country.”
Like many foreigners, Boris once believed that all Chinese could perform kung fu, flying onto roofs and walking over walls. He thought the country was not that developed. But after he got a scholarship (奖学金) to study in China in 2019, his view changed. “China has entered a new period, but many people’s impressions of China are still stuck in the 1970s,” Boris said. “That’s why I started to shoot vlogs to share Chinese culture in 2019.”
Until now, Boris has posted more than 40 Chinese culture vlogs online. But making these vlogs is not easy. Take reading the poem Second Farewell to Cambridge by Xu Zhimo as an example.
“I can understand and read every word in the poem,” Boris said. “But to touch readers, I need to use proper feelings while reading.” So he needed to look for much background information and make his feelings suit each part of the poem.
Though shooting these vlogs takes lots of time, the young man feels proud that his vlogs have inspired many people. Boris said that he wanted to continue bridging the differences between two cultures. “This goal may not be achieved easily, but I will spare no efforts to do my part.”
54．Through the vlogs, Boris mainly wants to ________.
A．teach foreigners Chinese
B．introduce a Chinese university
C．sell Chinese products
D．share his experiences in China
55．Boris’s experience of learning “dongxi” is an example of learning Chinese by ________.
A．translating it as a whole
B．making up some sentences
C．knowing its cultural background
D．comparing it with other words
56．What inspired Boris to shoot vlogs
A．The need to show the real China.
B．It is a task as a scholarship receiver.
C．The popularity of Chinese culture.
D．A chance to be a successful vlogger.
57．Why is the poem Second Farewell to Cambridge is mentioned to
A．To meet the followers’ needs.
B．To express Boris’s love for poems.
C．To show Boris’s efforts at vlog-making.
D．To give an example of Chinese culture.

57．推理判断题。根据“Until now, Boris has posted more than 40 Chinese culture vlogs online. But making these vlogs is not easy.

It was October 1837. Samuel Morse and I, Alfred Vail, sat in our workshop. We were studying how to turn dots (●) and dashes (—) into a message.
Morse’s first idea was to tap out numbers-one tap for “1”, a long tap and two short ones for “12”, and so on. Then he made a big list of words and gave their numbers—“342”meant “train” and so on. But I wasn’t so sure this was the best way. His word book was huge. It would take hours to look up codes (代码). Too slow!
“Why couldn’t the dots and dashes stand for letters instead ” I shared my better idea.
“How could that work ” Morse asked.
“Well, for example, two dot
