Vicky’s mother opened the door. She had a look at Vicky’s bedroom.
“What a mess! It looks as if a hurricane (飓风) passed through Vicky’s bedroom,” said Vicky’s mother. “I must ask her to clean it.”
Vicky was eating breakfast. Her father came into the kitchen and said, “Mom wants you to clean your room. It looks as if a hurricane passed through it.”
Joe, Vicky’s little brother, asked, “A hurricane Is that a bad thing ”
“Sure it is,” said his father.
“I’ll do it after school, Dad,” said Vicky. “My first class is geography and Mr. Miller hates people to be late.” And off she ran through the front door.
Twenty minutes later, Vicky ran into her classroom.
“Today,” said Mr. Miller, “we’re going to learn about hurricanes. Have any of you seen a hurricane ” Vicky thought about her bedroom, but she said nothing.
“I haven’t seen one. Not a real one but I watched a program on TV and I know they destroy (破坏) things and leave a mess,” said James who sat next to Vicky.
“Yes,” said Mr. Miller. “But today I’m going to surprise you. Sometimes hurricanes do good.”
“Hurricanes can be good things ” Vicky asked.
“Oh, yes,” said Mr. Miller. “Hurricanes bring a lot of water to rivers and lakes that are becoming dry. Animals and fish come back to live in them. Hurricanes also pick up heat from the very hot areas of the world and drop it in less warm places.”
“So, hurricanes can be good things,” Vicky said to herself. “I’m going to show Mom the good part.”
When Vicky got home in the afternoon, she began to clean up her bedroom. She put all of her things in their proper places.
“Mom,” she called. “Can you come here for a minute ”
Vicky’s mother put her head around the door.
“Vicky!” she said. “That looks fantastic! I told your dad this morning that it looked as if a hurricane had hit it!”
“Are you sure that’s a bad thing, Mom ” asked Vicky, smiling.

（2025·河南平顶山·模拟预测）Near my home lies a small lake surrounded by a walking path. When my children were younger, I took them to this place a few times a week. The experience of walking along the path was truly wonderful, as it allowed us to be close to nature and enjoy its beauty.
One autumn day, however, I noticed that the path wasn’t looking so good. It was full of rubbish that other walkers had left along the way. The next time we went there, I took a large bag with me. As we walked along the lake, we picked the rubbish up and put it in the bag.
Before putting the bag into the car, I looked back at the lake shining in the sun and the trees full of beautiful red and golden leaves, and I smiled. It took us twice as long as usual to get all the way around the lake. But we felt a sense of satisfaction that couldn’t be put into words. We didn’t make the lake more beautiful, but we removed some things that made it less so.
In this life we are all more important than we realize. Every single thing we do can add or take away from the beauty of this world. We all need to make wise choices to contribute to the world. We need to do our part and give something back. Maybe it is an act of kindness, a word of love, or even picking up a single piece of rubbish.

“We have to stay together so that no one will get lost,” Ms. Lane said. She lined the class up when they got to the aquarium (水族馆), the place for their school trip today. As Erica listened to Ms. Lane, she held her best friend Lisa’s hand, and the class moved forward in one big group.
Their first stop in the aquarium was to see the penguins. Erica noticed that some of the penguins walked together. Others had little baby penguins by their side.
“How come some of those penguins stay together ” Erica asked Ms. Lane.
“Well, some penguins stay together to keep each other warm and safe,” explained Ms. Lane. “By using some signals (信号) like we do, they let other penguins know if there is danger, while others look after their babies. Without the group, the babies would get lost or go hungry.” Ms. Lane continued and then asked the class to line back up and find their partners.
The class moved as a group to the next room where there was a big tank (水箱) filled with fish of different shapes and sizes. “Why are all those little fish swimming together ” asked a boy. “For protection,” said Ms. Lane.
“What kind of protection ” Erica asked.
“Well, since they are small, if they were on their own, other bigger fish could eat them,” said Ms. Lane. “But when they all swim together, they look like a bigger fish. This way they won’t be seen as some small fish. Such a group of fish is called a school of fish.”
“Like us,” said Lisa. “We are a school because we all stay together, and no one gets lost.”
“Some schools of fish stick together in order to survive in their environment,” added Ms. Lane. Erica watched the fish swim together. She learned a lot during the interesting visit. She liked that the fish and the penguins helped each other by staying in a group.

（2025·河南洛阳·一模）One day a man found a cocoon (茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go any further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid (液体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been, we could never fly.

Andy decided to join the school’s photography club. He loved taking photos but never thought he was good enough to show them to others. But this time he took a chance and signed up.

河南中考模拟真题练
（2025·河南平顶山·模拟预测）Near my home lies a small lake surrounded by a walking path. When my children were younger, I took them to this place a few times a week. The experience of walking along the path was truly wonderful, as it allowed us to be close to nature and enjoy its beauty.
One autumn day, however, I noticed that the path wasn’t looking so good. It was full of rubbish that other walkers had left along the way. The next time we went there, I took a large bag with me. As we walked along the lake, we picked the rubbish up and put it in the bag.
Before putting the bag into the car, I looked back at the lake shining in the sun and the trees full of beautiful red and golden leaves, and I smiled. It took us twice as long as usual to get all the way around the lake. But we felt a sense of satisfaction that couldn’t be put into words. We didn’t make the lake more beautiful, but we removed some things that made it less so.
In this life we are all more important than we realize. Every single thing we do can add or take away from the beauty of this world. We all need to make wise choices to contribute to the world. We need to do our part and give something back. Maybe it is an act of kindness, a word of love, or even picking up a single piece of rubbish.

2．细节理解题。根据第二段“he saw that one of his passengers had paid 3,500 yuan for a bill of 35 yuan.”可知，他看到他的一位乘客为35元的账单付了3500元，d“刘辉发现一名乘客付了很多钱。”排第一；根据第三段“According to the payment time, he guessed this passenger was me.”可知，根据付款时间刘辉猜出乘客是Gina，c“刘辉猜乘客是吉娜。”排第二；根据第四段“So Liu Hui went directly to the Garden Hotel to find me again, and he explained to me what had happened.”可知，刘辉去酒店找到Gina并解释了事情经过，e“刘辉去旅馆解释了这件事。”排第三；根据第四段“I was surprised that Liu Hui returned all the extra money.”可知，Gina很惊讶刘辉把多余的钱都退回，b“刘辉把多余的钱给了吉娜。”排第四；根据第四段“I made a decision to give him a reward, but he refused.”可知，Gina决定给刘辉报酬，但他拒绝了，a“刘辉拒绝了吉娜的报酬。”排第五；因此，正确顺序是d-c-e-b-a。故选D。

Their first stop in the aquarium was to see the penguins. Erica noticed that some of the penguins walked together. Others had little baby penguins by their side.
“How come some of those penguins stay together ” Erica asked Ms. Lane.
“Well, some penguins stay together to keep each other warm and safe,” explained Ms. Lane. “By using some signals (信号) like we do, they let other penguins know if there is danger, while others look after their babies. Without the group, the babies would get lost or go hungry.” Ms. Lane continued and then asked the class to line back up and find their partners.
The class moved as a group to the next room where there was a big tank (水箱) filled with fish of different shapes and sizes. “Why are all those little fish swimming together ” asked a boy. “For protection,” said Ms. Lane.
“What kind of protection ” Erica asked.
“Well, since they are small, if they were on their own, other bigger fish could eat them,” said Ms. Lane. “But when they all swim together, they look like a bigger fish. This way they won’t be seen as some small fish. Such a group of fish is called a school of fish.”
“Like us,” said Lisa. “We are a school because we all stay together, and no one gets lost.”

（2025·河南洛阳·一模）One day a man found a cocoon (茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go any further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid (液体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.

（2025·河南驻马店·一模）Director Walter Salles once went to the city’s western suburbs (郊区). At the train station square, he met a shoeshine boy. He asked, “Sir, do you need a shoeshine It’s cheap!” Walter’s shoes were clean so he shook his head and left.
Later, Walter felt someone running after him. He turned and saw the boy. “Sir, I haven’t eaten all day. Could you lend me some money I promise to return the money!” he said.
Looking at the thin boy, Walter couldn’t help but feel sympathy (怜悯). He gave him some coins. The boy said “Thanks” and rushed off. Walter shook his head, having met many scammers (骗子) before.
Walter forgot about it soon. Unexpectedly, as he passed by the station again, he heard a boy shouting, “Sir, please wait!” Walter recognized him. The boy said, “Sir, I’ve been waiting for you for long. Finally, I can return your money!” Holding the coins, Walter felt a sudden warmth.
Looking closer at the boy, Walter suddenly realized he perfectly fit the leading character of his film. Walter gave the coins back. “Take them as a gift,” Walter said. “Come to my office tomorrow. I have a surprise for you.”
The next day, Walter saw the boy. He said shyly, “Sir, these children are all like me. I brought them along because they also long for surprises!”
His kindness moved Walter. All the children were interviewed and several were more suitable than the boy. However, Walter chose to keep only the boy. And he wrote down the reason: “Your kindness needs no test.” He believed someone who could share their hope with others, even in their own difficult time, deserved (值得) life’s surprises.
This boy later became a well-known Brazilian star.
