A【解析】【原文】W: I read a story in a book the other day. It showed something important and I wanted to share it with you. The story was set in the years before cars were invented, so the rich had to travel in coaches. One day, a young lady wanted to watch a play in the theater. Her coachman took her to the theater in a coach. It was very cold. While she was watching the play, the poor coachman had to sit outside in the snow on the drivers seat of the coach looking after the horse. Inside the theater, the lady was moved to tears by the performance. Some actors in the play were in extremely poor situations. She showed great pity on them. However, when she came out and saw the coachman covered with snow and almost frozen to death, she just considered it as a normal part of life. Nowadays, whenever I see people in terrible situations on TV, I feel sad, wishing that I could do something to make a difference. But I often ignore people and things around me, like people who struggle with life. They lose their jobs, experience death in their family or suffer diseases. Help those as you can. This is the story. Is there anyone who can share something you read during the holidays in class?第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分)第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。AThere are hundreds of great national nature reserves in China.

Every year, swans (天鹅) from different places fly here for nesting, which became a national swan reserve in 1986.Rongcheng Swan National Nature ReserveAs one of the largest wintering places for swans in China, this reserve in Shandong Province mainly protects whooper swans (大天鹅), which make it different from other nature reserves.

In 1990, it became a national nature reserve. This reserve is on the coast, so the area of the reserve has good water quality and many kinds of creatures,21.

As an important stopover, migratory birds (候鸟) would rest in this area during their movement trip every year.(青海湖是中国青海省最大的咸水湖，是许多动物和鸟类的重要水体。作为重要的中途停留地，候鸟每年迁徙时都会在这一地区休息)”以及Bayanbulak National Nature Reserve标题下的“The only Bayanbulak Wetland, in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, is at the foot of Tianshan Mountains, which makes itself suitable for migratory birds. (新疆维吾尔自治区唯一的巴彦布拉克湿地位于天山脚下，适合候鸟栖息)”可知，这两个自然保护区的共同之处是都适合候鸟栖息。故选D。22题详解】细节理解题。根据Rongcheng Swan National Nature Reserve标题下的“As one of the largest wintering places for swans in China, this reserve in Shandong Province mainly protects whooper swans (大天鹅), which make it different from other nature reserves. (作为中国最大的天鹅越冬地之一，山东省的这个保护区主要保护大天鹅，这使它与其他自然保护区不同)”可知，荣成天鹅国家级自然保护区的特别之处在于它保护的是中国的大天鹅。故选B。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据Sanya Coral Reef (珊瑚礁) National Marine Nature Reserve标题下的“This reserve focuses on protecting coral reefs and their living environment in Sanya City, Hainan Province.

However, teaching her how to use the Internet is as frustrating as untangling (解开) wires.Once, my mother came to me to ask for help on how to find a recipe for all-beef Lasagna. I gave her very simple verbal instructionsgo to the home page of a particular search engine and type in “recipe for all-beef Lasagna.” Fifteen minutes later, she came to me, telling me that she was unable to find the Internet icon. I went over to the computer and pointed out the icon to her.Another fifteen minutes went by when I felt a tap on my shoulder. This time, my mother said that she was unable to search for the particular recipe. Gritting (咬) my teeth, I walked to her room again. I saw that she had typed “all beef La saga” instead. With frustrated strokes, I keyed in the correct spelling.Yet another fifteen minutes went by again when my mother gingerly tapped my shoulder. I stormed next door without bothering to hide my frustration. The main page of the website had not shifted one bit. I then realized that she did not know how to scroll(滚动屏幕) down the page. What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one.To avoid being disturbed again, I decided to find the recipe for her. Without a word, I rapidly downloaded a few recipes, printed them out and passed them to my mother. However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience.At that moment, memories flashed through my mind. When I was young, my mother endured my endless questions, enlightening me with much patience. Now that I am older, the roles slowly reverse. As my mother may increasingly need my help, shouldnt I rethink how to respond to her needs?24. Why does the author gave her mother very simple instructions at first?A. Because she was an impatient person.B. Because she didnt want to be disturbed.C. Because she wanted to make them easy to follow.D. Because she thought it was an easy task to do.25. How did the authors mother feel when she got the recipes?A. Delighted.B. Embarrassed.C. Frustrated.D. Impatient.26. Which of the following is probably the end of the story?A. The author becomes more willing to help her mother.B. The authors mother becomes more patient to her.C. The authors mother doesnt turn to her for help any more.D. The author learns more recipes with her mother.27. What can be a suitable title for this text?A. Its never too old to learn.B. Action speaks louder than words.C. Patience is the mother of success.D. Understanding means standing in others shoes.【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. D【解析】【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要描述了母亲因不熟悉电脑而屡次向我求助，而我对她却越来越没有耐心，最后我终于意识到了自己的问题所在。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段的“What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one.(最初看起来是一项简单的任务，结果却变成了一项艰巨的任务)”可知，一开始作者只给妈妈非常简单的指导是因为作者认为在网上查看菜谱是非常简单的人物。故选D。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段中“However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience.”（然而，看到她的尴尬，我开始后悔我的不耐烦）可知，在作者拿到菜谱之后，妈妈感到非常的尴尬。故选B。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“At that moment, memories flashed through my mind. When I was young, my mother endured my endless questions, enlightening me with much patience. Now that I am older, the roles slowly reverse. As my mother may increasingly need my help, shouldnt I rethink how to respond to her needs?”（那一刻，回忆在我的脑海中闪过。在我小的时候，母亲忍受着我没完没了的问题，耐心地启发着我。现在我长大了，角色慢慢颠倒了。我的母亲可能越来越需要我的帮助，难道我不应该重新考虑如何回应她的需求吗?）可知，作者后悔自己对母亲不耐烦的态度，想到自己小时候被妈妈耐心地对待，由此判断，作者接下来会更加耐心地对待妈妈，更愿意帮助自己的妈妈。故选A。【27题详解】主旨大意题。文章第一段到第五段讲述了作者母亲因不熟悉电脑而屡次向我求助，而我对她却越来越没有耐心，最后一段提到作者回想小时候母亲对待自己的耐心，后悔自己不耐烦的态度，从而认为自己要改变自己的态度，要站在母亲的角度上考虑她的需求。D项“理解意味着站在别人的立场上。”符合文意。故选D。CBred to be sweeter, todays cherries, bananas and apples taste different than they used to but not necessarily better.
