Last year，Abraham Olagbegi got the news that he got a disease and needed a bone marrow transplant （骨髓移植）.About a year later，the 13-year-old boy got much better news：His transplant was successful，and he could join Make-A-Wish，an organization that helps fulfill （完成） wishes of children with serious illnesses.
That was when Abraham shared an idea with his mom. "I remember when we were coming home after seeing his doctor，he said， 'Mom，I thought about it，and I really want to feed the homeless，' " said Abraham's mom，Miriam Olagbegi. "I said， 'Are you sure，Abraham？You could do a lot...You're sure you don't want to play video games？' "
However，Abraham was uninterested in the PlayStation.Instead，in September，Make-A-Wish helped Abraham organize a day to hand out free food in Jackson，Mississippi — the food and supplies were donated by local businesses.They were able to feed around 80 people that day.
"When the homeless people get the plate，some of them would come back and sing to us and thank us，" he said. "And it just really feels good.It warms our hearts.My parents always taught us that it's a blessing （好事） to be a blessing."
Abraham's efforts are not over just yet — Make-A-Wish will help Abraham feed the homeless on the third Saturday of every month for a year.This will last through Aug.2022，but Abraham already plans to keep it going much longer than that by starting the organization "Abraham's Table".
"We're just very excited to be able to continue on this attempt，" Abraham's mom said. "If I was out there on the streets，I would want somebody to think of me and to do something special for me.So，that's what I try to teach my kids and we just try to pay it forward，by doing what we were raised to do."
4.Why did Abraham's mom ask him the questions in paragraph 2？ ______

When I first heard about Summit Learning, I admitted I was not a bit happy and excited at all. I thought it would require interactions with others. But later, I was astonished when I got to experience it firsthand.
Recently, we did a poetry project, and one of the activities was a peer(同龄人) review. I would never have taken part if it was up to me, as I preferred to work independently. But when I got involved, I found in the experience, I had done something that I thought was nearly impossible—it made my poetry better. My partner informed me of my mistakes and told me where I could give more detail.
One of our final products of the project was to present our poetry to the class. I've always loved public speaking, but I thought with Summit Learning, I would have fewer chances to speak. I was wrong. The peer activities we did with a partner gave me more belief in my ability and inspired me to do more to make my presentation the best it could possibly be.
Interactions like these are what Summit Learning is all about. This style of learning brings a positive and hard-working culture that allows us to push our boundaries and keep going. It creates a sense of community since we are all working towards a similar goal.
As an active boy, I have always been ahead and advanced, but in a normal classroom, there are restrictions on what I can do. With Summit Learning, I can go beyond expectations in projects or move ahead in learning new content when I'm ready. I have ownership of my work and pursue my goals.
Summit Learning has showed me how much people can grow and change. It has helped me see people and myself differently. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I cannot see myself going back to a normal classroom.
8.What was the author's initial response to Summit Learning
A. He was unwilling to attend it.
B. He was excited to take part in it.
C. He was astonished to hear about it.
D. He was unhappy to withdraw from it.
9.How did the poetry project benefit the author
A. It boosted his confidence.
B. It developed his sense of humor.
C. It reminded him to be independent.
D. It taught him how to organize activities.
10.What can be inferred about Summit Learning
A. It proves the limits of one's abilities.
B. It teaches poetry in a normal classroom.
C. It transforms the traditional way of learning.
D. It promotes diversity of classroom objectives.
11.How does the author find Summit Learning now
A. Demanding. B. Admirable. C. Upsetting. D. Conventional.
D
Mouse embryos（胚胎） have been cultured（培养） on the International Space Station （ISS），marking a significant step in understanding reproduction in space.Led by Teruhiko Wakayama from the University of Yamanashi in Japan，this experiment studied the possible safety of human pregnancy（怀孕） during long space journeys，such as a trip to Mars that lasts more than six months.Wakayama emphasized the importance of this research，saying， "We are conducting research to ensure we will be able to safely have children if that time comes."
The experiment began on Earth，where early two-cell stage embryos from pregnant mice were taken out，frozen，and sent to the ISS on a SpaceX rocket.Astronauts on the ISS then warmed up and cultured the embryos for four days using devices specially designed for this task.Afterward，the embryos were kept and returned to Earth.The four-day growth period was chosen as embryos can only survive for this length outside a uterus，according to Wakayama.
Upon their return，the embryos were examined to check the impact of space's unique conditions，such as higher radiation（辐射） levels and microgravity（微重力）.The results were promising；the embryos showed no DNA damage from radiation and showed normal structural development，including the crucial change into two cell groups necessary for forming the fetus and placenta.Wakayama found these results significant，as it was previously believed that microgravity might prevent the embryo's ability to separate into these separate cell types.
While these findings are promising，further research is needed to fully understand space reproduction.Wakayama referred to a previous study involving pregnant rats in space，which resulted in the birth of typical-weight rats，suggesting normal development.The team now aims to further study the health of embryos exposed to space conditions and plans to test whether mouse embryos sent to the ISS can develop into healthy young after returning to Earth.
12.What was the main purpose of sending mouse embryos to the ISS？ ______
A. To test the possibility of embryos in space.
B. To study the effects of radiation on DNA.
C. To culture embryos using specific devices.
D. To observe the growth of pregnant mice.
13.The mouse embryos showed ______ after being cultured on the ISS.
A. DNA damage from radiation
B. failed separation into cell groups
C. adjustment to microgravity
D. normal growth
14.Why does the passage mention a previous rat study in paragraph 4？ ______
A. To provide supporting evidence for the results
B. To describe the conditions for raising rats
C. To recommend a new research method
D. To introduce an unsuccessful experiment
15.What can be a suitable title for the text？ ______
A. Space Mice：A Genetic Revolution
B. Pregnancy in Space：A Mouse Embryo Study
C. Mars Trip：Embryo Challenges
D. Mouse Embryos：Freezing Techniques

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

That was when Abraham shared an idea with his mom.

However，Abraham was uninterested in the PlayStation.Instead，in September，Make-A-Wish helped Abraham organize a day to hand out free food in Jackson，Mississippi — the food and supplies were donated by local businesses.They were able to feed around 80 people that day.
"When the homeless people get the plate，some of them would come back and sing to us and thank us，" he said. "And it just really feels good.It warms our hearts.My parents always taught us that it's a blessing （好事） to be a blessing."
Abraham's efforts are not over just yet — Make-A-Wish will help Abraham feed the homeless on the third Saturday of every month for a year.This will last through Aug.2022，but Abraham already plans to keep it going much longer than that by starting the organization "Abraham's Table".
"We're just very excited to be able to continue on this attempt，" Abraham's mom said.

When I first heard about Summit Learning, I admitted I was not a bit happy and excited at all. I thought it would require interactions with others. But later, I was astonished when I got to experience it firsthand.
Recently, we did a poetry project, and one of the activities was a peer(同龄人) review. I would never have taken part if it was up to me, as I preferred to work independently. But when I got involved, I found in the experience, I had done something that I thought was nearly impossible—it made my poetry better. My partner informed me of my mistakes and told me where I could give more detail.
One of our final products of the project was to present our poetry to the class. I've always loved public speaking, but I thought with Summit Learning, I would have fewer chances to speak. I was wrong. The peer activities we did with a partner gave me more belief in my ability and inspired me to do more to make my presentation the best it could possibly be.
Interactions like these are what Summit Learning is all about. This style of learning brings a positive and hard-working culture that allows us to push our boundaries and keep going. It creates a sense of community since we are all working towards a similar goal.
As an active boy, I have always been ahead and advanced, but in a normal classroom, there are restrictions on what I can do. With Summit Learning, I can go beyond expectations in projects or move ahead in learning new content when I'm ready. I have ownership of my work and pursue my goals.
Summit Learning has showed me how much people can grow and change. It has helped me see people and myself differently. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I cannot see myself going back to a normal classroom.
8.What was the author's initial response to Summit Learning
A. He was unwilling to attend it.
B. He was excited to take part in it.
C. He was astonished to hear about it.
D. He was unhappy to withdraw from it.
9.How did the poetry project benefit the author
A. It boosted his confidence.
B. It developed his sense of humor.
C. It reminded him to be independent.
D. It taught him how to organize activities.
10.What can be inferred about Summit Learning
A. It proves the limits of one's abilities.
B. It teaches poetry in a normal classroom.
C. It transforms the traditional way of learning.
D. It promotes diversity of classroom objectives.
11.How does the author find Summit Learning now
A. Demanding. B. Admirable. C. Upsetting. D. Conventional.
D
Mouse embryos（胚胎） have been cultured（培养） on the International Space Station （ISS），marking a significant step in understanding reproduction in space.Led by Teruhiko Wakayama from the University of Yamanashi in Japan，this experiment studied the possible safety of human pregnancy（怀孕） during long space journeys，such as a trip to Mars that lasts more than six months.Wakayama emphasized the importance of this research，saying， "We are conducting research to ensure we will be able to safely have children if that time comes."
The experiment began on Earth，where early two-cell stage embryos from pregnant mice were taken out，frozen，and sent to the ISS on a SpaceX rocket.Astronauts on the ISS then warmed up and cultured the embryos for four days using devices specially designed for this task.Afterward，the embryos were kept and returned to Earth.The four-day growth period was chosen as embryos can only survive for this length outside a uterus，according to Wakayama.
Upon their return，the embryos were examined to check the impact of space's unique conditions，such as higher radiation（辐射） levels and microgravity（微重力）.The results were promising；the embryos showed no DNA damage from radiation and showed normal structural development，including the crucial change into two cell groups necessary for forming the fetus and placenta.Wakayama found these results significant，as it was previously believed that microgravity might prevent the embryo's ability to separate into these separate cell types.
While these findings are promising，further research is needed to fully understand space reproduction.Wakayama referred to a previous study involving pregnant rats in space，which resulted in the birth of typical-weight rats，suggesting normal development.The team now aims to further study the health of embryos exposed to space conditions and plans to test whether mouse embryos sent to the ISS can develop into healthy young after returning to Earth.
12.What was the main purpose of sending mouse embryos to the ISS？ ______
A. To test the possibility of embryos in space.
B. To study the effects of radiation on DNA.
C. To culture embryos using specific devices.
D. To observe the growth of pregnant mice.
13.The mouse embryos showed ______ after being cultured on the ISS.
A. DNA damage from radiation
B. failed separation into cell groups
C. adjustment to microgravity
D. normal growth
14.Why does the passage mention a previous rat study in paragraph 4？ ______
A. To provide supporting evidence for the results
B. To describe the conditions for raising rats
C. To recommend a new research method
D. To introduce an unsuccessful experiment
15.What can be a suitable title for the text？ ______
A. Space Mice：A Genetic Revolution
B. Pregnancy in Space：A Mouse Embryo Study
C. Mars Trip：Embryo Challenges
D. Mouse Embryos：Freezing Techniques

For most people traveling abroad，their first choice is probably to make a beeline to （直奔） tourist sights.For me，I find lots of joy in grocery （食品杂货店） shopping on holiday.

Grocery shopping on holiday sounds unusual.But it means being involved in the day-to-day lives of a country's citizens.I can pretend I am a local and put myself in their shoes.I can watch kids begging their parents for sweets，an international experience that needs no language，or watch couples pick up snacks and drinks for a party on a Friday night. （5） ______

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
16~20.【答案】C、A、B、F、E

（2）联系上文题。根据前文In Malta，I found the most delicious chocolate-filled cakes，a product I would struggle to find even in the UK. （在马耳他，我找到了最美味的巧克力夹心蛋糕，这种产品即使在英国也很难找到。）可知，作者遇到了一个美味的巧克力夹心蛋糕。A选项"I ended up eating these every day for breakfast.（后来我每天早餐都吃这个。）"中的these指代前文的chocolate-filled cakes，形成呼应，指出作者每天早餐都吃夹心巧克力蛋糕，符合语境。故选A。
（3）联系下文题。根据后文Looking for smoked tofu and corn pancakes turns into quite a mission whenever I visit Cluj-Napoca in Romania. （每当我去罗马尼亚的克卢日纳波卡时，寻找熏豆腐和玉米煎饼就成了一项相当艰巨的任务。）可知，此处强调作者喜欢在旅游过程中寻找食物。B选项"The challenge of finding food is interesting，too.（寻找食物的挑战也很有趣。）"引起下文，指出作者将寻找食物看作是有趣的挑战，符合语境。故选B。
（4）联系下文题。根据后文That is because they are never available at the smaller ones.（这是因为它们在较小的商店里永远都买不到。）指出玉米煎饼在较小的商店里永远都买不到。F选项"Corn pancakes always require a trip to the bigger grocery store（玉米煎饼总是需要去大一点的杂货店。） "与后文的they进行呼应，指出玉米煎饼总是需要去大一点的杂货店，因为在较小的商店里永远都买不到它们，符合语境。故选F。
（5）联系上文题。根据前文But it means being involved in the day-to-day lives of a country's citizens. （但它意味着参与一个国家公民的日常生活。）以及I can watch kids begging their parents for sweets，an international experience that needs no language，or watch couples pick up snacks and drinks for a party on a Friday night.（我可以看到孩子们向父母乞讨糖果，这是一种不需要语言的国际体验，也可以看到情侣们为周五晚上的派对挑选零食和饮料。）可知，前文强调通过购物可以体验当地市民的日常生活即作者通过购物能够参与一个国家公民的日常生活。E选项"It's an act of understanding people as much as of buying food.（这是一种理解他人的行为，就像购买食物一样。）"承接前文，指出通过购物可以让自己像当地人一样融入当地文化的做法。故选E。
本文是一篇记叙文。本文介绍了作者作为素食主义者在旅行中喜欢去当地的食品杂货店购物，以便制作自己的食物。作者在不同的国家发现了各种各样的食品，并通过购物体验当地市民的日常生活。作者认为这是一个有趣而且可以让自己像当地人一样融入当地文化的做法。

（1）品读原文，确定文章线索
每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路，通过精读文章，找到该篇文章的写作线索。如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜（结尾）"。
（2）仔细审题，明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此次短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
（3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求，再次快速阅读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
（4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后，最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时，注意句子结构的多样性，语言的丰富性，并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用，使上下文连贯。
