Luca was glad it was Saturday again. He didn’t have to make the long bus trip to school. His mother was on the late shift (晚班). Now that it was just the two of them, she did lots of late shifts.
Luca turned on the radio as he cleared the breakfast dishes. “Firemen warn spot fires (零星火灾) at the foot of the mountain may spread,” said the host. Luca could feel his heart racing. Just then, the phone rang.
“My dear,” came his mother’s voice. “The firemen won’t let me go back home. They say it’s much too ...” The line went dead. A moment later, the power cut out.
Luca stood in the kitchen and read the safety list they had prepared after that terrible accident. His mum told him how she wanted to be well prepared for anything.
Luca smelt the smoke in the air, so he acted quickly. He closed all the doors and windows and pushed towels and woollen blankets under all the doors. He filled the bath with water and took the radio and everything into the living room. Finally, with the last blanket over him, Luca got down low on the floor, and waited.

①My daughter gave me a new address book for my birthday. She knows the one I often use is very old now. The gift is lovely: the cover is colourful, and the pages are white. But I don’t feel like I am free to use this new address book because I’m still tied to my old one.
②My old address book tells my own story—the way I moved around. Names were added in different colours from different periods of my life. When I moved back home to Niagara, my address book included the old information I needed in order to be able to get in touch with some of my old friends again.
③There are certainly stories of friendships in this book—the comings and goings of my friends. Their addresses have been corrected again and again, filling up one line after another. I have started using pencil for some of them because they are taking up too much space! Some friends went on to marry each other. For such things, I used arrows (箭头) to show how these two families had become one. Children’s names were added one by one. Then some got their own lines as they moved out.
④This book also includes the stories of my family—two generations (一代人) of relatives. I can remember all their phone numbers, and I can picture their houses in detail. Some have died, but their addresses are still there in my book.
⑤“Don’t you have all that on your phone ” My daughter, who never uses address books, once asked me when she saw me checking my address book. I know that having it on a phone is very useful and can save a lot of trouble. But making changes on a phone is always done completely. When you don’t see a person any more, you delete (删除) all his information. It’s like he was never there.
⑥My old address book now sits on top of the new one. The magnet on its cover is as strong as ever, keeping all the people from A to Z in order. But my new address book whispers a story of new possibilities. It offers me space for those new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get to it. It’s just a matter of time.
22．The old information in the old address book can help the writer _________.
A．move back home to Niagara B．connect with old friends again
C．move around the world D．make more new friends
23．Why does the writer dislike keeping friends’ information on a phone
A．Because she finds it not easy to use a phone.
B．Because she wants to be different from the younger.
C．Because it’s impossible to get back to the information if it is deleted.
D．Because she has to depend on her daughter to manage the information.
24．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph
A．The writer doesn’t like the new address book.
B．The writer will start to use the new address book soon.
C．The writer has decided to throw her old address book away.
D．The writer decides to put all her friends’ information into a phone.
25．What is the proper structure of the passage
A．①—②③④⑤—⑥ B．①②③—④—⑤⑥
C．①②—③④—⑤⑥ D．①—②③④—⑤—⑥

Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber. 26 Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure in South America, covering 7,800 miles. He was even named “Adventurer of the Year” by a famous geography magazine in 2018.
Although Jerry has achieved great success, he didn’t feel satisfied (满意的). He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains Am I doing something helpful 27 ”
Jerry learned that some scientists need plants, rocks and water samples (样本) from the places far away to do research. However, the scientists can’t get there themselves as such places are hard to reach-only the bravest adventurers can make it. 28 He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for the scientists. 29
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant on Mount Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped the scientists learn how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is the most satisfying. “Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn’t important for me. 30 There is still much more we can do,” said Jerry.
A．Jerry thought that he could do something to help.
B．The adventures of Jerry and his friends have changed their understanding of life.
C．He has climbed many high mountains in the world.

Table manners can be very different in different cultures.
In China, when inviting guests for a meal, it’s polite to wait for the elderly to start eating first. We also use chopsticks gently and try not to make loud noises.
In France, dinner is a special time. People often say “Bon appetite!” to show their wishes for a good meal. Usually, French people taste each dish and enjoy the flavors (味道). And it may take hours for French people to finish a dinner.
In Japan, dining is a quiet and respectful thing. If a conversation is needed, it’s important for people to speak in a low voice. People sit upright and use chopsticks and bowls carefully. It’s polite to say “Itadakimasu” before they start to eat, which means “I humbly receive”.
In the US, people usually eat simple food such as a sandwich instead of spending a lot of time preparing a big meal. However, it’s still important to be careful with manners and never to eat with your mouth open or elbows (肘) on the table.

17．标题归纳题。根据第二段“I’m going to be Harvey Wilks and you’re going to be my brother William”和“And I leave my other property and three thousand dollars in gold to my brothers, Harvey and William.”以及通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了国王和公爵假扮成彼得 威尔克斯的兄弟，来到他的村庄，假装悲伤地得知彼得已去世，并在葬礼上表现出对侄女的关心。通过宣读遗嘱，他们发现彼得留给侄女们三千金币，而另三千金币则留给了“兄弟”们。国王和公爵决定将金币全部给侄女们，以赢得村民的信任和好感。所以本文的最佳标题是“一个弥天大谎”。故选B。

Luca was glad it was Saturday again. He didn’t have to make the long bus trip to school. His mother was on the late shift (晚班). Now that it was just the two of them, she did lots of late shifts.
Luca turned on the radio as he cleared the breakfast dishes. “Firemen warn spot fires (零星火灾) at the foot of the mountain may spread,” said the host. Luca could feel his heart racing. Just then, the phone rang.
“My dear,” came his mother’s voice. “The firemen won’t let me go back home. They say it’s much too ...” The line went dead. A moment later, the power cut out.
Luca stood in the kitchen and read the safety list they had prepared after that terrible accident. His mum told him how she wanted to be well prepared for anything.
Luca smelt the smoke in the air, so he acted quickly. He closed all the doors and windows and pushed towels and woollen blankets under all the doors. He filled the bath with water and took the radio and everything into the living room. Finally, with the last blanket over him, Luca got down low on the floor, and waited.
Listening to the fire shout outside, Luca wondered what would happen to his mum if she lost him, too. After almost half an hour, Luca stood up. He knew he wasn’t out of danger yet. He checked for spot fires and wet down the house.
For days, there was news report after news report, describing how Luca had saved the house and himself. There were Luca’s words in the paper, too. “Sometimes things just happen. There is nothing you can do to change it. But when you are prepared, at least you’re in there with a chance.”

①My daughter gave me a new address book for my birthday. She knows the one I often use is very old now. The gift is lovely: the cover is colourful, and the pages are white. But I don’t feel like I am free to use this new address book because I’m still tied to my old one.
②My old address book tells my own story—the way I moved around. Names were added in different colours from different periods of my life. When I moved back home to Niagara, my address book included the old information I needed in order to be able to get in touch with some of my old friends again.
③There are certainly stories of friendships in this book—the comings and goings of my friends. Their addresses have been corrected again and again, filling up one line after another. I have started using pencil for some of them because they are taking up too much space! Some friends went on to marry each other. For such things, I used arrows (箭头) to show how these two families had become one. Children’s names were added one by one. Then some got their own lines as they moved out.
④This book also includes the stories of my family—two generations (一代人) of relatives. I can remember all their phone numbers, and I can picture their houses in detail. Some have died, but their addresses are still there in my book.
⑤“Don’t you have all that on your phone ” My daughter, who never uses address books, once asked me when she saw me checking my address book. I know that having it on a phone is very useful and can save a lot of trouble. But making changes on a phone is always done completely. When you don’t see a person any more, you delete (删除) all his information. It’s like he was never there.
⑥My old address book now sits on top of the new one. The magnet on its cover is as strong as ever, keeping all the people from A to Z in order. But my new address book whispers a story of new possibilities. It offers me space for those new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get to it. It’s just a matter of time.
22．The old information in the old address book can help the writer _________.
A．move back home to Niagara B．connect with old friends again
C．move around the world D．make more new friends
23．Why does the writer dislike keeping friends’ information on a phone
A．Because she finds it not easy to use a phone.
B．Because she wants to be different from the younger.
C．Because it’s impossible to get back to the information if it is deleted.
D．Because she has to depend on her daughter to manage the information.
24．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph
A．The writer doesn’t like the new address book.
B．The writer will start to use the new address book soon.
C．The writer has decided to throw her old address book away.
D．The writer decides to put all her friends’ information into a phone.
25．What is the proper structure of the passage
A．①—②③④⑤—⑥ B．①②③—④—⑤⑥
C．①②—③④—⑤⑥ D．①—②③④—⑤—⑥
【答案】22．B 23．C 24．B 25．D
【导语】本文主要讲述了作者的女儿送给她了一个新地址簿作为礼物，作者因感情而珍惜旧的地址簿，因为上面承载了太多美好的回忆。
22．细节理解题。根据“When I moved back home to Niagara, my address book included the old information I needed in order to be able to get in touch with some of my old friends again.”可知，旧地址簿中的旧信息可以帮助作者再次与老朋友取得联系。故选B。
23．细节理解题。根据“But making changes on a phone is always done completely. When you don’t see a person any more, you delete all his information. It’s like he was never there.”可知，作者不喜欢在手机上保存朋友的信息是因为如果信息被删除了，就不可能再找回来了。故选C。
24．推理判断题。根据“But my new address book whispers a story of new possibilities. It offers me space for those new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get to it.”可推知，作者很快就要开始使用新的通讯录了。故选B。
25．篇章结构题。通读全文，第①段讲女儿送给作者一本新的地址簿，而作者还在用旧的地址簿；第②③④段主要讲旧的地址簿的意义；第⑤段讲为何不用手机记地址；⑥介绍旧的地址簿仍然好用，但新的地址本有新的可能，也将会使用。故选D。

However, the scientists can’t get there themselves as such places are hard to reach-only the bravest adventurers can make it. 28 He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for the scientists. 29
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant on Mount Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped the scientists learn how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions.

In Japan, dining is a quiet and respectful thing. If a conversation is needed, it’s important for people to speak in a low voice. People sit upright and use chopsticks and bowls carefully. It’s polite to say “Itadakimasu” before they start to eat, which means “I humbly receive”.
In the US, people usually eat simple food such as a sandwich instead of spending a lot of time preparing a big meal. However, it’s still important to be careful with manners and never to eat with your mouth open or elbows (肘) on the table.
