What

A
few
weeks
ago,
I
got
$120
from
a
friend
in
a
Smile
Group.
He
asked
me
to
do
good
things
with
the
money.
Since
then
I
have
used
the
money
to
help
strangers,
and
raised
a
lot
of
smiles.
One
day
I
was
in
a
shop,
looking
at
the
second-hand
books.
It
happened
that
the
book
shelves
(架子)
were
next
to
the
toy
shelf.
I
noticed
that
a
poorly
dressed
woman
standing
behind
me.
A
girl
about
3
years
old
came
over
ta
the
my
shelf.
At
once
her
attention
was
caught
by
a
toy
dog.
She
spoke
to
her
mother
and
her
mother
asked
the
shop
owner
how
much
it
cost.
The
answer
was
$
3.
Then
she
said
“no”.
The
child
said
nothing.
Maybe
"no"
was
not
new
for
her,
but
she
couldn't
keep
the
disappointment
away
from
her
face.
I
had
a
total
of
$
5.
I
put
the
money
in
the
mother's
hand
and
said,
"Buy
her
a
book,
too.
"
I
didn't
wait
to
see
the
end.
I
walked
out
of
the
shop.
The
money
the
friend
gave
me
was
to
help
me
find
happiness
in
the
world.
Was
there
any
better
way
to
get
so
much
happiness
with
so
little
money?

C(2020年山东德州中考)
Li
Shijin,
30,
didn't
expect
to
make
a
living
through
his
voice.
Li
began
to
work
as
a
company
salesman
in
Liaoning
Province
in
2012.
He
tried
to
find
a
part-time
job
as
a
wedding
host
to
improve
his
confidence.
Around
the
spring
festival
in
2014,
he
started
listening
to
audiobooks
(音频书).
After
being
a
listener
for
two
years,
he
decided
to
record
himself
reading
books.
Then,
he
posted
his
first
audiobook
Youth
Will
Not
Return
on
Qingting
in
2016.
It
was
broadcast
(广播)
and
listened
to
about
20
million
times.
A
year
later,
after
he
had
read
three
audiobooks,
he
was
signed
up
as
a
voice
performer
by

However,

(压力)

(立足地)
but

secret
of
his
success,
he
said,
"Many
people
have
good
abilities
and
many
work
very
hard,
but
they
may
fail.
Early
birds
get
worms.
I

on
to
their

on
trying."

这篇短文给我们讲述的是一个父亲和女儿在公园里放风筝,女儿有点累了,父亲给他买了两个苹果吃。父亲问女儿是否愿意与他分享苹果,他的女儿马上把两个苹果都咬了一口。父亲很吃惊,觉得女儿怎么这么贪婪、自私,但没想到女儿是想看看哪个苹果更好吃。把更好吃的给父亲。
1.
句意:女儿有点累了,所以他们在长凳上休息。sleep睡觉;picture画画;look看;break打破;休息。根据句意The
young
daughter
was
a
little
bit
tired可知,“女儿有点累了”,因此应休息一下。take
a
break是固定短语,故选D。
2.
句意:她的爸爸没有带太多的钱,但是足够买两个苹果。water水;money钱;paper纸;juice果汁。根据空后but
it
was
enough
for
two
apples可知,买苹果需要花钱,故这里应选B。
3.
句意:所以他就买了两个苹果,把他们都给了女儿,笑着。gave
给;compared比较,对比;joined参加,加入;explained解释。根据His
daughter
held
one
apple
in
her
left
hand
and
the
other
in
the
right
hand.下文,女儿左手一个苹果,右手一个苹果,所以父亲把两个苹果都给了她。故应选A。
4.
句意:然后父亲问她是否能跟他分享一个苹果。cut切割;wash洗;share分享;save拯救。根据下文Suddenly,
his
daughter
with
an
apple
in
her
left
hand
said,
“Daddy,
have
this
one!
It
is
juicier
and
___8___.”可知,父亲也想吃一个苹果,因此这里应表示“分享”,选C,用于短语share
sth.
with
sb.和某人分享某物。
5.
句意:当女孩听到这个的时候,她马上咬了一口苹果。quickly快速地;nervously紧张地;bravely勇敢地;patiently有耐心地。根据句中And
before
her
father
could
speak…可知,女孩听到父亲的话,马上在每个苹果上咬了一口,故A选项符合文意。
6.
句意:这个父亲惊呆了。satisfied满足的,满意的;shocked吃惊的;moved移动;happy开心的。根据上下文When
the
girl
heard
this,
she___5___
took
a
bite
from
one
apple.
And
before
her
father
could
speak,
she
also
took
a
bite
from
the
second
apple….He
wondered
what
mistake
he
made
caused
his
daughter
to
act
in
such
a
greedy
way.可知,女儿的做法让父亲很吃惊,他不知道为什么女儿会这么贪婪。故应选B。
7.
句意:他的女儿太小还不懂得分享和给予。afraid害怕的;young年轻的;silly傻的,愚蠢的;excited兴奋的。根据上文A
father
and
his
daughter
were
flying
a
kite
in
the
park.
The
young
daughter
was
a
little
bit
tired,
so…可知,女儿还很小,不懂得分享,故应选B。
8.
句意:小女孩说:“爸爸,吃这个,这个汁水更多,更甜。”sweeter更甜的;dearer更珍贵的;saltier更咸的;bigger更大的。根据文意可知,女孩把两个苹果都咬了一口,所以这里应该是把更好吃的给爸爸吃,空前juicier是多汁的,因此选sweeter符合文意,故选A。苹果的大小不用尝,能看出来,所以D不对。B和C不符合文意。
9.
句意:他感到很惭愧,这么快就对一个孩子做出了判断。proud骄傲的;great伟大的;ashamed惭愧的;tired累的。根据上文He
wondered
what
mistake
he
made
caused
his
daughter
to
act
in
such
a
greedy
way和句意可知,父亲为刚才的所想感到很惭愧。故应选C。
10.
句意:知道他的女儿为什么咬了每一个苹果,他的笑容又回来了。went
away离开;ended
up结束;ran
off跑走;came
back回来。根据上文He
wondered
what
mistake
he
made
caused
his
daughter
to
act
in
such
a
greedy
way.
He
was
lost
in
thought.
Perhaps
he
was
just
thinking
too
much.
His
daughter
was
too
___7___
to
understand
about
sharing
and
giving.
The
smile
disappeared
from
his
face.可知,当父亲误会女儿的时候,他的笑容消失了。而这里他了解了女儿为什么这样做时,他的笑容又回来了。故应选D。

What

It's
worth
thinking
it
over.
A
few

I
got
$120
from
a
friend
in
a
Smile
Group.
He
asked
me
to
do
good
things
with
the
money.
Since
then
I
have
used
the
money
to
help
strangers,
and
raised
a
lot
of
smiles.
One
day
I
was
in
a
shop,
looking
at
the
second-hand
books.
It
happened
that
the
book
shelves
(架子)
were
next
to
the
toy
shelf.
I
noticed
that
a
poorly
dressed
woman
standing
behind
me.
A
girl
about
3
years
old
came
over
ta
the
my
shelf.
At

her
attention
was
caught
by
a
toy
dog.
She
spoke
to
her
mother
and
her
mother
asked
the
shop
owner
how
much
it
cost.
The
answer
was
$
3.
Then
she
said
“no”.
The
child
said
nothing.
Maybe
"no"
was
not
new
for
her,
but
she
couldn't
keep
the
disappointment
away
from
her
face.
I
had
a
total
of
$
5.
I
put
the
money
in
the
mother's
hand
and
said,
"Buy
her
a
book,
too.
"
I
didn't
wait
to
see
the
end.
I
walked
out
of
the
shop.
The
money
the
friend
gave
me
was
to
help
me
find
happiness
in
the
world.
Was

happiness
with

posted
his
first
audiobook
Youth
Will
Not
Return
on
Qingting
in
2016.
It
was
broadcast
(广播)
and
listened
to
about
20
million
times.
A
year
later,
after
he
had
read
three
audiobooks,
he
was
signed
up
as
a
voice
performer
by
Qingting.
However,
he

pressure
(压力)
when

up
by
Qingting.
"To
improve
my
ability,
I
didn't
sleep
for

training
course
at

and

put
a
lot
of
effort.
Many
people
tried
to
get
a
foothold
(立足地)
but
failed,
while
he
made
it!
When
talking
about
the
secret
of
his
success,
he
said,
"Many
people
have
good
abilities
and
many
work
very
hard,
but
they
may
fail.
Early
birds
get
worms.
I
believe
they

get
chances
and
succeed
sooner
or
later
if
they
hold
on
to
their
dreams
and
keep
on
trying."

All
over
the

of
animals
are
used
for
wildlife
tourism.
People
travel
to
watch
monkey
shows,
hug
baby
tigers
and
swim
with
dolphins.
It
might
look
like
fun,
but
there
are
reports
that
animals
are
hurt
now
and
again.
The

Protection
(WAP)
says
that
up

in

been
reported
that
elephants
have
died
after
carrying
tourists
for
long
in
hot
weather.
This
is
getting
attention
—
over
100
travel
companies
have
promised
that
they
will
no
longer
open
up
such
places.
However,
some
people
argue
that
animal
tourism
isn’t
always
as
bad
as
it
seems.

【答案】DDBCB
【解析】本篇文章难度适中,主要讲述野生动物旅游业给野生动物造成的影响以及针对是否要发展野生动物旅游业给出的两种观点。
16.
D细节理解题。根据The
World
Animal
Protection
(WAP)
says
that
up
to
550,000
wild
animals
are
exposed(暴露)
to
ill
treatment
around
the
world可知,根据WAP,超过550000的动物面对不好的对待,故选D。
17.
D词义猜测题。根据This
is
getting
attention
—
over
100
travel
companies
have
promised
that
they
will
no
longer
open
up
such
places可知,这引起了人们的关注——100多家旅游公司承诺将不再开设此类旅游场所。再根据However,
some
people
argue
that
animal
tourism
isn’t
always
as
bad
as
it
seems可知,然而,一些人认为动物旅游并不总是像看起来的那么糟糕。所以such
place指的是动物旅游业,所以选D。
18
B细节理解题。根据The
way
animals
are
treated
is
often
cruel
and
causes
much
pain.
Even
if
treated
well,
they
can’t
act
in
the
same
way
as
they
would
in
the
wild以及It
is
enjoyable
and
educational
for
people
to
communicate
with
the
wonderful
animals.
The
more
people
know
about
them,
the
more
they
want
to
protect
them可知,动物们被对待的方式是残忍的并且造成巨大的疼痛,尽管他们被对待地很好,但是他们不能像在野外那样行动;对于人们来说,和动物交流是有趣的和有教育意义的,关于动物,人们知道地越多,他们就越想保护动物。所以两者都提到了保护野生动物,故选B。
19.
C细节理解题。根据There’s
no
need
to
disturb
them
in
real
life可知,在现实生活中没有必要打扰他们,故选C。
20.
B主旨大意题。根据全文可知,主要讲述如今动物旅游业很发达,以及针对野生旅游业发展的不同观点,故选
B。

Sunday,
August
25th
I
visited
the
Great
Wall
with
my
friends._
It
is
in
the
north
of
China,
with
a
long
history.
It
is
more
than
6,000
kilometres
long
and
4
to
5
metres
wide.
When
we
arrived,
it
was
raining.
We
began
to
climb
when
the
rain
stopped.
We
saw
beautiful
autumn
leaves
along
the
way.
They
were
colourful.
In
half
an
hour,
we
reached
Badaling,
and
we
met
lots
of
other
visitors
there,
including
some
foreign
friends.
We
had
a
short
break,
talked
to
them
and
took
photos
with
them.
At
last,
we
got
to
the
top
of
the
Great
Wall.
How
beautiful
the
Great
Wall
was
when
we
looked
down
from
the
top.
No
wonder
it
is
one
of
the
greatest
wonders
of
the
world.
We
were
truly
proud
of
it.
