Triathlon is a race in which each person swims, rides a bicycle and runs over very long distances. It has been held ten times in Hope Town. Sam, aged 20, finished nine races with his younger brother Luke. Every race was a victory for them. Luke can’t walk, talk or feed himself because of a rare brain illness since birth. But Sam wants his brother to know what it feels like to be part of a sport instead of having to sit and watch. A local TV journalist interviewed Sam after he received the Town Hero Award.
(J=Journalist, S=Sam)
J: How did you get the idea to include Luke in these events
S: When I was ten, my mom showed me a video of two young men from another city doing triathlons. One of the men had a condition like Luke has. I got the idea from that.
J: What’s it like having Luke along
S: I feel good and proud during the whole triathlon, for I’m giving something to Luke. He can experience things any other man would.
J: What do you get from him
S: It’s the smile on Luke’s face. That smile brightens me. The feeling of knowing that I’ve done something for him is unbelievable.
J: When you received the Town Hero Award, you talked about the importance of changing the way you see things. What did you mean

(2020·上海·中考真题)"Just because you can't see something, that doesn't mean it's not there. "This old saying is quite meaningful for British sculptor(雕刻家) Willard. The items he creates are so small that most of them fit on the head of a pin. You can see them clearly only through a microscope(显微镜).
Many people want to own his art pieces. He's been honored by the Queen of England for his great art achievements. At every one of his exhibitions, the question is always the same. How does he do it
The answer is very, very carefully. So carefully, in fact, that he actually slows his breathing down and works in between breaths. Willard usually works under a microscope using special tools that he creates. To paint his works, he uses the hair from a fly as a paintbrush.
Creating these detailed works is a very long and difficult process, and it isn't always enjoyable." It is a terrible dream when I start but a nice dream when I finish," he says. A single item can take at least several weeks to complete.
People have asked Willard why he chose to do something that needed effort and took time. His interest in creating small things began when he was five. He started creating houses and playgrounds for ants. Willard was not a strong student. He had difficulty in reading and spelling words. Some kids used to call him a loser. This made him feel small, so focusing on lite things helped him to feel big. The smaller his work got, the bigger he felt. A newspaper reporter said, "Willard has shown the world that he is special. Though_______ , he________."
13.Are Willard's art pieces big or small in size
14.When people visit Willard's exhibitions, what question do they always ask
15.What does Willard use to make a paintbrush
16.What does the underlined word it in paragraph 4 refer to
17.Why did Willard choose to do something that needed effort and took time
18.What can be filled in the blanks in the last paragraph

Life is like a"choose your own ending"book-you can take whatever adventures(冒险)you want. Being nice can get you somewhere.

Dear Mrs Wu, I love video games and I develop my own games. It’s my favourite hobby. My parents were very encouraging at first. The day I started secondary school, they changed their mind. They now suggest that I give up video games altogether because study should be my priority (优先考虑的事项). What’s more, they don’t even allow me to go out with my friends at night. Every time they do that, I act like I don’t care. But in fact, I am quite angry and upset because they simply have no respect for me and my needs. What can I do Sincerely yours, Jason
Dear Jason,
You must be feeling very stressed these days. I’m glad you wrote to me for help. However, you should keep calm and talk to your parents about the benefits of your hobby. I can see why your parents are against video-gaming—it was seen as a useless pastime (娱乐活动) back in the time when your parents were young. The best idea may be to tell them that it is good training for new tech jobs like being a video game developer or drone photographer (无人机摄影师). Also, it is a good way to have a rest after a long school day. Try pointing out real-life examples to them to support your idea. Meanwhile, you should also make sure your hobby doesn’t get in the way of your school performance. As for your parents’ not allowing you to go out with your friends, it may be a good idea to open up to them about your private life. For example, you can ________. This may help them change their mind. Meanwhile, show them you are a responsible person who understands their worries, and will not let them down. If you can do this, I don’t believe they will be so hard on you. Remember, you mustn’t lose your cool, as that would be immature (不成熟的). Cheers! Mrs Wu

An Unusual Garden
The old 1986 truck was a gift from his grandfather. It worked, but it used a lot of gas. Ian Cheney looked at his grandfather’s truck and thought of a farm. As in other large cities, there is not much space to grow food in New York. Yet Cheney wanted a vegetable garden. Many farmers in New York have found creative ways to grow vegetables, such as rooftop gardens, community gardens in old parking lots, and even a floating garden in the Hudson River. Cheney, however, didn’t have access to any of these spaces. So the old truck was a practical solution. The back of the truck provided him with the space he needed.
So Cheney set to work. First, he drilled holes in the truck bed—allowing water to pass through. Then he laid down a recycled plastic mat. The soil came next—a special lightweight variety. He made sure that everything was organic. Cheney preferred organic because he wanted to grow vegetables without chemicals. Then he planted lettuce, herbs, spinach, and tomatoes. Finally, he watered and waited.
When the food was ready to pick, Cheney drove the truck from one urban neighborhood to another. He gave away some of the vegetables. He sold the rest to friends and neighbors. Everywhere he parked, passersby stopped and talked about the beautiful vegetable garden in the back of the truck.
Cheney strongly believes that people are better off eating more local food—that is, food grown close to where they live. Local food has both environmental and health advantages. It reduces “food miles”. The term food miles refers to the distance between where you produce food and where you sell it. A lot of the food in large supermarkets travels hundreds of miles to get to your dinner table. This has an economic and environmental cost. Then there is the question of nutrition—food that helps you grow and be healthy. The nutritional benefits of vegetables decrease over time. So eating food within a few days of harvesting is healthier for you.
Cheney knows that his truck farm cannot solve the problem of the lack of fresh food in some neighborhoods. Yet, like rooftop gardens, it could be part of the solution. As Cheney says, “If we can grow food
in the back of an 1986 Dodge pickup, we can definitely find better ways to grow more fresh produce.”
31.The old 1986 truck from Ian Cheney’s grandfather is working properly, isn’t it
32.Where does Cheney plant his vegetables
33.Why did Cheney drill holes in the truck bed
34.How did Cheney deal with the vegetables he grew
35.What are the two reasons Cheney suggests people eat more local food
36.What do you think of farmers in New York in the passage Give your reasons.

(2024·上海黄浦·二模)There once were two young brothers, Simon and Pedro, who dreamed of going to university to become engineers. There was just one problem. They came from a poor family in a small town that was far from any university.

And when the first one became an engineer, he would pay for the other to go to school.
They flipped (threw) a coin. Simon won. But he said, “I can’t go. You are much smarter than me.” Pedro convinced him to go. Simon headed off to school and Pedro worked hard to make money to pay for his schooling. Simon was the hardest-working student there. He soon became known as the best student. But he always told people that his brother was the really smart one. He would proudly show everyone Pedro’s designs for machines.
Then, near the end of the first year of school, there was an accident at the mine. Pedro was hurt quite badly and would never be able to work in the mine again. Without money, Simon had to quit school. He took care of his brother, and they were both terribly sad.
One day, a car pulled up to their little house and out came Simon’s teacher.“Simon, we want you to come back,” said his teacher. Simon was shocked. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I can’t leave my brother.” The teacher replied, “You won’t have to. I’ve seen Pedro’s designs. And he is too smart for us not to accept him.”

【点睛】1.明确阅读任务
同学们在做题的时候,首先要先阅读所给的任务,明确任务是什么,再带着任务去阅读,这样就能做到心中有数,有针对性地去读,才能提高阅读效率。
2.读全文,了解大意
明确任务后,要迅速阅读全文来了解文章主要内容,以及文章的感情基调、作者的意图等。因为大家知道在材料后的问题设置中,经常有对文章大意的考查。对于概括大意的题目,需要全篇考虑,这类题目有时可以从文中直接找到答案,但有时需要用自己的话来概括。这类题难度较大,对文章还得再读一读,才能总结出来。
除此之外,还经常考查给文章拟标题。这类题目可以通过寻找主题句和高频词来完成。主题句往往是首句或尾句,但如果没有主题句,就可以从短文中去提炼、概括。确定标题同学们必须遵循两个原则,第一个是标题要有概括性,就是说标题应在最大程度上覆盖全文,体现文章的中心大意;第二个是标题要醒目,即标题要吸引读者的注意力。
最后一道是需要自己发挥,如6小题,Ms.Lauren可能会怎么处理这些笔记,她可能会让学生们彼此分享。
