(2023·山东东营高二联考)There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway，wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favourite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always travelled to Malaysia by plane or car，so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore，so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city，I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight，immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3: 00 p. m. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile，I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather－beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.

(2022·全国高考甲卷)As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica，she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins(企鹅) longing to say hello. These gentle，lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick－started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever since her childhood，Ginni，now 71，has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career(职业) as a professional dancer，she toured in the UK，but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest，she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts，Ginni began to travel the world，eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last－minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego，the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. “I just decided wanted to go，” she says. “I had no idea about what I’d find there and I wasn’t nervous，I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way. ”　
In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she’d never met before，to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises，the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has，” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater. ”　
The realization that this is a precious land，to be respected by humans，was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.
(　　)8．Which of the following best explains “take the plunge” underlined in Paragraph 2
A．Try challenging things. B．Take a degree.
C．Bring back lost memories. D．Stick to a promise.
(　　)9．What made Ginni decide on the trip to Antarctica
A．Lovely penguins. B．Beautiful scenery.
C．A discount fare. D．A friend’s invitation.
(　　)10．What does Ginni think about Antarctica after the journey
A．It could be a home for her. B．It should be easily accessible.
C．It should be well preserved. D．It needs to be fully introduced.
(　　)11．What is the text mainly about
A．A childhood dream. B．An unforgettable experience.
C．Sailing around the world. D．Meeting animals in Antarctica.

(2023·江西赣州高二检测)Teenagers who travel around the world alone have been making headlines quite often. A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and sponsors. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to cancel her voyage，yet the Prime Minister called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned. It seems that there is confusion about the competence and independence of young people.
The popular psychologists tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals. Between the ages of 14 and 18，teenagers vary greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their age but by discussion with the related，responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and can make childish mistakes，but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard－headed and well－qualified adult supporters.
But it’s also wrong to think that any 16－year－old can desire to get achievements as unusual as Jessica Watson’s. Watson calls herself “an ordinary girl who has a dream”. Her intention is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such dreams Actually，individuals face varying circumstances that restrict their dreams.
Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (事先形成的) views about young people. Nor should young “ordinary” teenagers feel stressed to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact，I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses individualism. The teenage years are when most of us “ordinary” people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others.
(　　)12．What can we learn about Jessica Watson
A．She was criticized by the government.
B．She eventually canceled her voyage.
C．She has travelled around Australia.
D．She made a successful voyage.
(　　)13．What can be inferred about teenagers from the text
A．They have similar abilities.
B．They make decisions on their own.
C．They always make wrong judgments.
D．They need support of responsible adults.
(　　)14．Who does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A．Parents. B．Teenagers.
C．Psychologists. D．Adults.
(　　)15．What is the best title for the text
A．Divided Opinions on Young Adventurers　
B．Problems Faced by Adventurous Teens　
C．Various Ways to Become Independent　
D．Pressure to Achieve Personal Goals　
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分)　
One of the most popular vacation destinations for young families is the home of relatives.
__16__ Here are some tips for making sure you are invited back again.
Be Considerate　
Every family has their own way of doing things. Keep these things in mind when you’re visiting. If your host family are early to bed and early to rise, don’t keep them up talking until one o’clock in the morning.
If your host family gets angry about kids running wildly, either plan to keep a close eye on your kids or plan to stay somewhere else. __17__　
Offer to Help out　
Playing host to a family with children can be quite a challenge. Make sure you help lighten the load.
__18__ Offer to help with cooking and cleanup. Make your beds and run to the store for milk. Better yet, don’t ask. Just start working.
Help Pay for Food　
This may not apply, if you’re visiting parents and they insist on paying for everything and they can afford it. __19__ Use your judgment when it comes to staying with parents. However, if you’re visiting cousins, it will be a great help to them if you buy your share of the food.
Show Your Appreciation　
No matter whom you are visiting, make sure you let them know you appreciate their hospitality. __20__ Or leave some fresh flowers when you leave. If you don’t have enough money, write them a letter, letting them know how much fun you had and how much you appreciate them.
A．Don’t expect your hosts to supply your every need.
B．Offer to take them out to dinner on your last night in the town.
C．Make sure you don’t leave your things behind while visiting a family.
D．In that case, you may hurt your parents if you insist on paying for food.
E．Try not to disturb someone who is in the middle of exams.
F．Staying with relatives is a great way to save money while getting away from home for a while.
G．Having a talk with your children about expected behaviour while visiting is always a good idea.

I was frustrated at not being entered into the national IT competition I’d applied for. I sat in the car, lost in despair, chewing my lip and staring outside.

第二节(满分25分)　
Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. Finally, my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.
One day my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.
“Mom, I have a question to ask you，” I said after a while.
“What？” she replied, still doing her work.
“Is there love between you and Dad？” I asked her in a very low voice.
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She did not answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. I was in a great embarrassment and I did not know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words.
“Susan，” she said thoughtfully, “look at these thread. Sometimes it appears but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes them quite strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime，but it’s really there. Love is inside. ”　
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；

I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring when my father suddenly got sick seriously. _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

(2023·山东东营高二联考)There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway，wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favourite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always travelled to Malaysia by plane or car，so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore，so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city，I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight，immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3: 00 p. m. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile，I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather－beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.

12．D　细节理解题。根据第一段第四句“For example，Jessica Watson was asked by the government to cancel her voyage，yet the Prime Minister called her ’a hero for young Australians’ when she returned. ”可知，政府要求Jessica Watson取消航行，但在她返回时总理称她为“澳大利亚年轻人的英雄”。由此可知，Jessica Watson进行了一次成功的航行。故选D。
13．D　推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句“The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their age…by winning the confidence of hard－headed and well－qualified adult supporters. ”可知，青少年需要负责任的成年人的支持。故选D。
14．B　词义猜测题。根据第三段画线词所在句子以及上文 “But it’s also wrong to think that any 16－year－old can desire to get achievements as unusual as Jessica Watson’s …great achievements”可知，认为任何16岁的青少年都渴望获得和Jessica Watson一样不寻常的成就也是错误的。Watson称自己为“一个有梦想的普通女孩”。她这样做的目的是鼓励青少年，但是这个想法可能产生相反的效果，使他们感到自己不够好，因为(在他们看来)伟大的成就是他们不可触及的。所以，画线词them指代的是前文提到的青少年。故选B。
15．A　标题推测题。通读全文可知，独自一人环游世界的青少年经常成为头条新闻，一位名叫Jessica Watson的青少年成了澳大利亚年轻人的英雄，对此人们有着不同的看法。故A项“对年轻冒险者的不同看法”概括了本文内容。故选A。
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分， 满分12.5分)　
One of the most popular vacation destinations for young families is the home of relatives.
__16__ Here are some tips for making sure you are invited back again.
Be Considerate　
Every family has their own way of doing things. Keep these things in mind when you’re visiting. If your host family are early to bed and early to rise, don’t keep them up talking until one o’clock in the morning.
If your host family gets angry about kids running wildly, either plan to keep a close eye on your kids or plan to stay somewhere else. __17__　
Offer to Help out　
Playing host to a family with children can be quite a challenge. Make sure you help lighten the load.
__18__ Offer to help with cooking and cleanup. Make your beds and run to the store for milk. Better yet, don’t ask. Just start working.
Help Pay for Food　
This may not apply, if you’re visiting parents and they insist on paying for everything and they can afford it. __19__ Use your judgment when it comes to staying with parents. However, if you’re visiting cousins, it will be a great help to them if you buy your share of the food.
Show Your Appreciation　
No matter whom you are visiting, make sure you let them know you appreciate their hospitality. __20__ Or leave some fresh flowers when you leave. If you don’t have enough money, write them a letter, letting them know how much fun you had and how much you appreciate them.
A．Don’t expect your hosts to supply your every need.
B．Offer to take them out to dinner on your last night in the town.
C．Make sure you don’t leave your things behind while visiting a family.
D．In that case, you may hurt your parents if you insist on paying for food.
E．Try not to disturb someone who is in the middle of exams.
F．Staying with relatives is a great way to save money while getting away from home for a while.
G．Having a talk with your children about expected behaviour while visiting is always a good idea.
【语篇导读】去远方旅行最佳的目的地莫过于自己的亲戚所在的城市了，这样你可以节省一大笔开支。但是，怎样确保自己在亲戚家成为受欢迎的人，从而会有再次被邀请的机会呢
16．F　上句提到去远方旅行时，最佳的目的地莫过于亲戚所在的城市，而F选项就讲述了去亲戚所在城市旅行的好处：住在亲戚家是一个省钱的好办法。
17．G　上句提到如果你的孩子在亲戚家疯跑从而引起了亲戚的厌烦，要么看紧自己的孩子，要么就搬到别的地方去住。G选项“在拜访亲戚家的时候，要跟孩子谈一谈在别人家应该有的表现。”与上句一致，都是讲在亲戚家停留期间如何不让孩子影响到别人的心情。
18．A　下面几句都是在列举应该如何在自己所拜访的亲戚家做一些自己力所能及的事情。所以A选项“不要指望主人满足你的一切需求。”与下句相呼应，都是在讲在别人家停留的时候，自己能做的事情要亲力亲为，不要总是麻烦别人。
19．D　上句提到如果你是在探望自己的父母，他们有经济能力又坚持每一样东西都由他们付款的话，可以不必一定坚持在买食物的时候为他们付款。D选项讲述了在上述的情况下，如果你坚持自己付款，可能会导致的不良结果：伤害他们的感情。
20．B　上句提到无论拜访的是谁，一定要让对方知道你很感激他们的盛情款待。B选项提出的正是表达这种感激的方式之一：在你离开的前一天晚上，请对方吃一顿饭。而下一句提出的是另一种表达感激的方式：在离开的时候给他们送一些鲜花。

I was frustrated at not being entered into the national IT competition I’d applied for. I sat in the car, lost in despair, chewing my lip and staring outside.
I went upstairs, __21__ and desperate. Grandpa’s door was open for me as usual. There, he was waiting for my __22__ with great excitement. I stood silently, forcing a __23__ to cover my sadness. He seemed to __24__ me immediately, giving me a __25__. I was astonished that such a thin body was full of so much energy.
Only then did my emotions start __26__ out. I told him that all my __27__ were for nothing, and that I was feeling discouraged. Grandpa smiled at me __28__ and said, “Don’t worry.

He patted me on the shoulder, with a determined look, before saying, “Cheer up! I’m firmly __30__ that you have the ability to succeed. ” Grandpa’s encouragement soon made my sadness __31__.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是一个失明的北京男子曹晟康徒步旅行“一带一路”的事情。
36．to journey　考查非谓语动词。句意：近日，一名来自北京的盲人徒步40天来到西安，作为“一带一路”徒步旅行的第一步。分析句子并结合句意可知，journey为动词，表示“旅行”，step前面有序数词，应用不定式，作后置定语。故填to journey。

40．protection　考查名词。句意：曹晟康和吴凡还沿路收集垃圾，以促进环境保护。根据句意和空前的形容词environmental可知，此处应用名词protection，作宾语；protection表示“保护”时，是不可数名词。故填protection。

第二节(满分25分)　
Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. Finally, my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.
One day my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.
“Mom, I have a question to ask you，” I said after a while.
“What？” she replied, still doing her work.
“Is there love between you and Dad？” I asked her in a very low voice.
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She did not answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. I was in a great embarrassment and I did not know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words.
“Susan，” she said thoughtfully, “look at these thread. Sometimes it appears but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes them quite strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime，but it’s really there. Love is inside. ”　
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；　
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring when my father suddenly got sick seriously. _______________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________　
The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. ____________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________　
【答案】One possible version：　
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring when my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned, they both looked very pale. Every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. It seemed they were the most harmonious couple. The sun gently glistened through the leaves, which made up the most beautiful picture in the world.
The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk alone. All of us were worried about him. One day, he told me gently, “Susan, to be honest, I just like walking with your mom. ” Reading his eyes, I know he loves mom deeply. Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But now I understand love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
