day, a neighbor invited him to make some furniture. When arriving, he noticed the wood provided
was a little 32 , so he said, “I won’t start right away.” He chose to let the wood dry for a
3
month. He knew working with wet wood could cause 33 later on.

On her way to school, Amber Williams found a penny(一 分 钱 ) on the ground. “See a
penny, pick it up. All day long, you’ll be 61 .” Remembering the song, she quickly picked it
up.
“I’ve never seen you smile so big, Amber.” She 62 and saw Bella, the most popular

“I don’t think the penny did so much. I talked to you as you always seemed cool. 73
you are always a good student. I’m sure you studied 74 the test last night, didn’t you ”

So I walked to the door and 78 . “Just a minute”, answered a weak, elderly voice.

One day, Timmy’s father noticed that his son was crying silently.
His father asked him, “What’s the matter, Timmy ”
Timmy replied 91 , “My classmates often call me son of a gardener. They said
that my father makes a living by watering and feeding plants for other people. They often 92
me.”
His father thought for a while and then said, “Come with me, son. Let’s plant some 93 .

the library, stood William’s sunflowers. I counted all 117 of them. They must have
been at least 12 feet tall with faces to the sun.
Looking at the sunflowers, I realised we teachers should 118 what was
planted in our children and tried our best to nurture (培育) it. This was also 119 I

found that the mice that had to search for their own food were 128 , while the fully fed
ones were either ill or dead. It was clear that the underfed white mice in the process of searching
for 129 food, had kept healthy by exercising in finding food.

（B）Recycling is not only good for the environment, but also gives something that seems
16
not so valuable a change to be something else. Mateo Lange, a 15-year-old boy from Michigan,
US, is bringing 166 to the environment and his community through his weekend
recycling efforts.
At 11 years old, while playing baseball, Lange 167 his team needed money for
competitions. He soon came up with a plan. In Michigan, cans and bottles can be 168
and redeemed (兑换) for money. The amount is 10 cents per item and is added as an extra fee at
the time of buying to 169 litter and protect the environment.
With the help of his 170 , Lange started a recycling program, raising $7,500 in
just a few weeks. “We’ve raised so much money, 171 why not continue as long as we
can ” he said. This success made him 172 and encouraged to continue the project with
his father.
In 2019, Michigan stopped its recycling program, leading to bottles and cans 173
accumulating (堆积) in people’s homes.
Lange’s recycling 174 offered a solution. With his father’s help, they helped
people get rid of their recyclables and 175 did pickups from people’s homes. “I’d just
run out, knock on the door and say, ‘I’m here to 176 litter.’ I’d catch the bags and pull
them to the truck,” Lange said.
Since 2020, Lange’s recycling plan has raised $350,000 and helped over 50 local youth
groups. Besides, it has prevented more than 2 million bottles and cans 177 polluting
Michigan’s roadsides, lakes and rivers. “It has kept our community a lot 178 ,” Lange
said.
In 2023, Lange received the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes, recognizing 179
environmental efforts and community impact. He believed the world would become a much better
place.
Lange always said, “Be 180 . Have an idea and build on it,” whenever he was
asked about his cleanup achievements.

“I have had all my courses figured out,” she said. “Already ” I was surprised, thinking she should

courses I had suggested. Every course she had chosen 189 suited her interests. Just then
I saw a mature(成熟的), capable(有能力的) young woman with a 190 mind and the
18
ability to shape her future. She no longer needed her mother’s 191 everything for her. I
felt proud, though still a bit sad.
I reviewed the lessons 192 that Nicole has struggled(艰难地行进) to learn over
the past 18 years: responsibility(责任), 193 , and hard work. There have been a few
holes along the way. 194 , she is well-prepared and hopes to taste the future. The next

could pass the exams because he didn’t make any progress in study.

project, each child planted a sunflower. I did this every year with different results in different parts.

Every afternoon, William made sure all the sunflowers were watered. 114 even
offered to care for them well during the summer holiday. To help the little sunflowers get plenty of
sunlight, we 115 moved them to the perfect place behind the library with William.
All of us hoped the twenty sunflowers could 116 the best.
About a month into the summer vacation, I happened to drive by the school. There, behind
the library, stood William’s sunflowers. I counted all 117 of them. They must have
been at least 12 feet tall with faces to the sun.
Looking at the sunflowers, I realised we teachers should 118 what was
planted in our children and tried our best to nurture (培育) it. This was also 119 I

only with half the amount of food they need, had to search for food. Half a year later, scientists
found that the mice that had to search for their own food were 128 , while the fully fed
ones were either ill or dead. It was clear that the underfed white mice in the process of searching
for 129 food, had kept healthy by exercising in finding food.

【导语】本文主要讲述了一家人在遭遇火灾后的经历与感受。文中详细叙述了火灾发生的突
然性、火势的迅猛以及他们如何幸运地从火灾中逃生却失去了家园和所有财物。
151．句意：那是一个寒冷干燥的 2017 年 2 月的下午。
wet 潮湿的；dry 干燥的；warm 温暖的；lucky 幸运的。根据“It was a cold”可知，此处描述
的是天气状况，结合下文的起火情况，应该是很干燥。故选 B。
152．句意：突然，我儿子患自闭症的房间发生了火灾。
broke in闯入；broke through突破；broke out爆发（火灾等）；broke down出故障。根据“Suddenly,
a fire”可知，此处描述的是火灾的发生。与“火灾发生”相对应的是“爆发（火灾等）”。故选 C。
153．句意：我和孩子们都没有受伤地从火灾中逃了出来。
without 没有；with 有；through 通过；by 通过（方式）。根据“My children and I all escaped the
fire”可知，此处描述的是我们成功逃离了火灾。与“成功逃离”相对应的是“没有受伤”，而“没
有”是描述这种状态的合适词语。因此，选择“without”。故选 A。
154．句意：我通过屋顶看着火势蔓延。
floor 地板；stair 楼梯；ground 地面；roof 屋顶。根据“I watched the fire go up through the…”
可知，此处描述的是我从某个高处观察火势。与“高处观察”相对应的是“屋顶”，因为通常我
们会从屋顶或窗户等高处观察火势。因此，选择“roof”。故选 D。
155．句意：我们无处可去，失去了家园。
everywhere 到处；anywhere 任何地方；nowhere 无处；somewhere 某个地方。根据“We lost
our home”可知，此处描述的是我们失去了家园，因此接下来应该描述我们失去家园后的状
态。与“失去家园”相对应的是“无处可去”，因为失去家园意味着我们没有了可以居住的地方。
因此，选择“nowhere”。故选 C。
156．句意：但在我们能得到一些赔偿之前，我们不得不和亲朋好友住在一起，靠别人给的
东西勉强维持生活。
food 食物；money 钱；water 水；space 空间。根据“Fortunately, we had insurance”和“we had
to live with friends and family”可知，此处描述的是我们在等待保险赔偿之前的生活状态，而
赔偿通常是以“钱”的形式出现的。故选 B。
157．句意：我的自闭症儿子真的很难适应任何变化。
dealing with 处理；taking up 占据；bringing up 抚养；playing with 和...一起玩。根据“My autistic
35
son really had problems”和“any changes”可知，此处描述的是我的自闭症儿子很难适应变化，
所以应该用“处理”这个短语。但在这里，“dealing with”是作为一个动名词短语出现，表示“应
对、处理”的意思，与“had problems”搭配使用，表示“在应对变化方面有问题”。故选 A。
158．句意：他甚至不能接受必须穿一双新鞋的事实。
ever 曾经；even 甚至；never 从不；hardly 几乎不。根据“He couldn’t”和“accept the fact of having
to wear a new pair of shoes”可知，此处描述的是我的自闭症儿子对穿新鞋的排斥程度很深，
所以用“甚至”这个副词来加强语气。故选 B。
159．句意：然而我们不得不告诉他，他将住在一个全新的房子里，而且他所有的衣服和玩
具都不见了。
whole 整个的；all 所有的；half 一半的；over 超过的。根据“a new house”和“all of his clothes
and ... were gone”可知，此处描述的是我们将住在一个全新的房子里，并且他所有的东西都
不见了，所以应该用“整个的”这个形容词来修饰“房子”。故选 A。
160．句意：然而我们不得不告诉他，他将住在一个全新的房子里，而且他所有的衣服和玩
具都不见了。
illness 疾病；electricity 电；snacks 小吃；toys 玩具。根据“ all of his clothes”可知，此处描述
的是衣服和玩具都不见了。故选 D。
161．句意：感谢校长亲自来到学校，把我女儿留在学校的药带来了。
Eventually 最终；Thankfully 感谢地；Carefully 小心地；Helpfully 有帮助地。根据“the
headteacher of her school came and brought her the…”可知，此处描述的是校长亲自来送药，这
是一个值得感谢的行为。与“值得感谢”相对应的是“Thankfully”。故选 B。
162．句意：感谢校长亲自来到学校，把我女儿留在学校的药带来了。
breakfast 早餐；drinks 饮料；medicine 药；drug 毒品。根据“My youngest daughter had asthma
(哮喘).”可知，此处描述的是校长带来了我女儿留在学校的药，因为她有哮喘。与“哮喘”相
对应且符合语境的是“medicine”。故选 C。
163．句意：想到可能发生的事情，我不禁感到害怕。
happy 高兴的；afraid 害怕的；jealous 嫉妒的；sad 难过的。根据“Thinking about what could
have happened…”可知，此处描述的是想到可能发生的危险情况，我感到害怕。与“感到害怕”
相对应的是“afraid”。故选 B。
164．句意：我只是感激我的孩子们都还活着。
alive 活着的；ill 生病的；rise 上升；live 居住。根据“my kids were all…”和前文描述的火灾
36
情况可知，此处描述的是我感激孩子们都还活着。与“还活着”相对应的是“alive”。故选 A。
165．句意：他们的善良真的让我印象深刻。
