Few of us haven't read Cinderella, the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams. Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone's heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity (默默无闻) or neglect.
Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school.
Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes completely when a famous teenage pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.
Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joey's paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams. Of course, there is a wicked (邪恶的) stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn't get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her.
The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful. There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies.
“The movie takes the fairy tale Cinderella as its jumping off point，” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson. “The focus is firmly on following your dream. ”
【语篇解读】 这篇文章简要介绍了现代的一部曲折的经典童话故事的影片，并进行了评价。这是一部和灰姑娘故事相似又有些许不同的故事。
1．The first paragraph is mainly to ________.
A. build interest and lead us to Mary's secret dream
B. remind us why Cinderella is popular all the years
C. inform us of the main topic of the whole passage
D. tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is

2．In the movie, Mary Santiago is the main character who ________.
A. is brave in expressing her love
B. is attended to badly by the stepmother
C. has a dream of meeting a prince
D. is embarrassed by the pop singer
答案与解析：B 细节理解题。由第四段中的“wicked stepmother, takes in Mary, treats Mary like a maid”可知，她的继母对她不好。
3．What can we infer from the passage?
A. Joey is just like other boys in Mary's class.
B. Mary's mother influences her a lot in singing.
C. Not many people have a dream to be realized.
D. The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary.
答案与解析：D 推理判断题。由第四段第四句“...she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams.”可知，MP3是Joey找到Mary的唯一线索。
4．According to the passage, Another Cinderella Story ________________________________________________________________________.
A. follows Cinderella with nothing new
B. pays more attention to the looks of the actors
C. encourages young people to follow their dreams
D. focuses more on materialism than other films
答案与解析：C 推理判断题。结合第一段以及最后一段可知“Another Cinderella Story”鼓励年轻人追求自己的梦想。

A great rivalry (对抗) can make a hockey (曲棍球) game exciting. But it's even better when both sides share the same goal. Students of Boston College (B.C.) and Boston University (B.U.) held a game for a good cause. Former members of the schools' hockey teams faced off in the 4th Annual Commonwealth Avenue Charity Classic. It took place at B．U.'s Walter Brown Arena. Every year, the competition raises money for Compassionate Care ALS, the Pete Frates Home Health Initiative and the Travis Roy Foundation. This year's event brought in a record-breaking $78,432.
Frates is fighting ALS, a disease that affects the brain. A former B．C. baseball team leader, he was diagnosed (诊断) with ALS in 2012, when he was only 27. Frates and his family have since raised hundreds of millions of dollars for ALS research, most famously with the Ice Bucket Challenge, which began in 2014.
“Pete likes social media (媒体) very much, so he wanted his voice, his face, everything that was happening to him to be recorded to help more people，” said John Frates, Pete's father.
The B．C. and B．U. students enjoy coming together for the event. “This is just the best of the hockey world，” said former B．U. hockey player Travis Roy. “Both schools have a lot of great hockey players. Their skills are impressive, and the fact that they come out here to support good causes is a big deal.”
After a heated battle (较量), the B．U. Terriers won. Afterwards, former B．U. star Charlie McAvoy summed up the feeling of friendliness on the ice. “We all come together，” said McAvoy, who now plays for the Boston Bruins, “and we're able to put aside the rivalry for great causes.”
B．U.'s Danny O'Regan, who now plays for the Buffalo Sabres, added, “You work hard on the ice and off the ice, and good things will happen.”
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。两支来自波士顿不同大学的曲棍球队进行了一场为慈善机构筹集善款的特殊比赛。
5．What was special about the hockey game at B．U.'s Walter Brown Arena?
A．It was a quarterly event.
B．It was held by different charities.
C．It attracted many universities in the country.
D．It invited former members of the schools' teams to join.
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。由第一段中的“Former members of the schools' hockey teams faced off”可知，之前服役于两支球队的球员参加了这场比赛。
6．What happened to Frates when he was 27?
A．He was helped by a charity.
B．He was chosen as the team leader.
C．He was found to be seriously ill.
D．He was asked to work in a social media company.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。由第二段中的“A former B．C. baseball team leader, he was diagnosed with ALS in 2012, when he was only 27”可知，Frates在27岁时发现患有ALS(渐冻人症)。
7．What can we learn from Travis Roy's words?
A．Hockey is a very popular game.
B．B.U. has the best hockey players.
C．Hockey games should get more attention.
D．Both schools' hockey players are warm-hearted.
答案与解析：D 推理判断题。由第四段中的“students enjoy coming together for the event”和“the fact that they come out here to support good causes is a big deal”可知，Travis Roy认为这些技术精湛的球员都愿意为慈善来参加这一赛事，他们都是热心肠。
8．What did Charlie McAvoy think of the game?
A．It was too competitive.
B．It connected the players with a good cause.
C．It helped schools find many gifted players.
D．It encouraged students to work hard for their dreams.
答案与解析：B 推理判断题。由倒数第二段中“Charlie McAvoy”对这场比赛的总结“the feeling of friendliness on the ice”和“we're able to put aside the rivalry for great causes”可知，Charlie McAvoy认为这场为了慈善而举行的比赛把球员与慈善联系在了一起。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Almost 20 pounds of plastic (塑料) bags and other plastic rubbish were pulled from the stomach of a pilot whale that died over the weekend in Thailand, officials have said. Thailand's marine agency has promised to use the case to call for change in human behavior ahead of World Oceans Day, on June 8.
The pilot whale was first found struggling (挣扎) in a canal in southern Thailand's Songkhla Province a week ago. Animal doctors tried to help the animal, and it managed to spit (吐) out about five pieces of plastic on Friday but then died.
“This plastic rubbish made the whale sick and unable to hunt for food，” the government said. The department head, Jatuporn Buruspat, said the whale probably mistook the floating rubbish for food.
The United Nations' environmental chief warned in December that humans are throwing eight million tons of plastic into the oceans every year, and it will soon come back to bite us.
“At the present rate (速度), we'll end up with more plastic in the oceans than fish by the middle of the century, and finally that comes back to our own food chain，” U．N. Environment Executive Director of the United Nations, Erik Solheim, told CBS News' Pamela Falk.
“We need to understand that if we kill our oceans, we also kill ourselves，” Solheim said.
The U．S. Environmental Protection Agency agrees, saying, “Following many years of uncontrolled dumping (the act of throwing away rubbish), some areas of the ocean became polluted with harmful pollutants including heavy metals and oils.”
Although the U．S. is moving away from several U．N. agreements and organizations, including the Paris Climate Agreement, UNESCO, and the Global Compact on Migration, the U．S. government appears to be on board to clean up the oceans, Falk reported in December.
Solheim told CBS News “the methods are straightforward: There are plenty of natural alternatives to plastics... We don't need food stored in plastic bags, and we certainly don't need plastic straws (吸管) or throwaway plastic coffee cups.”
“This is an environmental disaster caused by laziness that is easily fixed by a healthier way.”
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。一头吞食大量塑料袋的巨头鲸命丧泰国南部沿海。泰国海洋局以此为戒号召人类改变个人行为。不同组织机构也对海洋塑料污染这一问题发表了看法。
1．What condition was the pilot whale in when it was found?
A．It was seriously wounded.
B．It was on the point of dying.
C．It was floating on rubbish.
D．It had died and was floating in a canal.
答案与解析：B 细节理解题。由第二段中的“first found struggling in a canal... Animal doctors tried to help the animal”可知，巨头鲸被发现的时候奄奄一息。
2．What does the underlined word “bite” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Help. B．Guard.
C．Affect. D．Thank.
答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。第五段中的“more plastic in the oceans than fish... finally that comes back to our own food chain”和第六段中的“if we kill our oceans, we also kill ourselves”是对画线词所在句中的“it will soon come back to bite us”的解释说明——海洋中的塑料垃圾污染会最终对我们的生活产生影响。此处的bite有“产生不良影响”之意。
3．What did Solheim advise us to do?
A．To support all the U．N. agreements.
B．To be on board to clean up the oceans.
C．To use environmentally friendly daily products.
D．To spread knowledge of sea animal protection.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“We don't need food stored in plastic bags... plastic straws or throwaway plastic coffee cups”可知，Solheim认为解决海洋塑料污染最直截了当的方法就是用天然产品替代塑料制品，因此他建议人们使用环保的日用品。
4．Where is the text most probably taken from?
A．A news report.
B．A travel magazine.
C．A warning notice.
D．A geography textbook.
答案与解析：A 文章出处题。由文章中的行文格式“officials have said, Erik Solheim, told CBS News' Pamela Falk”和“Falk reported in December”可知，本文应摘自一篇新闻报道。

[2019·陕西咸阳期末]It's a classroom. Instead of being told to sit quietly and listen, you are encouraged to stand up, jump around, imagine and act out. It's a class full of laughter, emotion and energy. Welcome to the drama class, one of my favorite classes at high school.
In drama class we used to play a lot of “drama games”. We would improvise (即兴表演), copy and above all use our imagination.
My favorite game was called “Spotto”. One person stood in the front of the class and performed a scene, completely out of their imagination. When another yelled “Spotto！” , the performer had to freeze. Then the person who had yelled Spotto got up and improvised a new scene based on the position the first performer froze in. This went on as more and more people were added to the scene. Eventually the entire class would have joined the scene. Then the performers would start to leave in reverse (颠倒的) order.
It was a lot of fun, and a good test of everyone's imagination to see what they would come up with. The drama class at my school often involved a big performance at the end of the term as well. We would work on a production throughout the term and put on a show for our parents and the school community.
It was a great experience to perform on stage in front of a large audience. The drama class can help shy children, like me, to come out of their shells. It helped them become more confident and developed their public speaking skills. It was also a great place to express oneself, and a way for children to devote some of their energy to what interests them.
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述了作者最喜欢的戏剧课和课上常玩的一个游戏——spotto。
1．Which do you agree with about the game “Spotto”？
A．Each performer in the game has to retell the story of the latter performer.
B．A performer has to show a story unrelated to that of the former performer.
C．Every student gets the chance to make a contribution to the “Spotto” game.
D．It is designed to help drama students learn from one another's performance.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Eventually the entire class would have joined the scene”可知，最后班里的每位同学都将加入这个场景中，故C项正确。
2．The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to “________”．
A．shy children B．a large audience
C．drama students D．the whole class
答案与解析：A 代词指代题。根据最后一段中的“The drama class can help shy children, like me, to come out of their shells”可知，戏剧课能够帮助像我一样害羞的孩子，由此可推断them指的是害羞的孩子。故选A。
3．What do you know about the author according to the article?
A．He was too shy to attend the drama class.
B．He was a star student in the drama games.
C．He was shining in big performances each term.
D．He was happy to perform on stage in front of the audience.
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It was a lot of fun, and a good test of everyone's imagination to see what they would come up with”和第五段中的“It was a great experience to perform on stage in front of a large audience. The drama class can help shy children, like me, to come out of their shells”可知，作者不仅喜欢戏剧课，还喜欢在台上表演。故选D。
4．What's the best title for this passage?
A．A Few Drama Games for Fun.
