One sunny spring day, a father took his young son for an outing to the hills. After their picnic, the boy lay on the soft grass, looking up at the sky. Suddenly, an eagle (鹰) caught his eye—flying higher and higher 1 it disappeared (消失).

When Peng flapped (拍打) them to fly, it could fly up high, reaching 90,000 Li and looked down at the beautiful Earth. But a little sparrow (麻雀) didn’t like Peng. It laughed and said. “The strong wind makes it 4 to fly that high, but it is safe and fun to fly around the bushes (灌木丛). It makes no difference whether it’s 5 .” Peng replied, “You’re wrong—the higher I fly, the farther I see, and the stronger I am, the more meaningful things I should do.”
The story was a great 6 to the boy. He said seriously to his father, “I want to fly high and do something meaningful 7 being a little sparrow.” His father smiled, knowing that a great dream was growing 8 in his son’s heart.

Long ago, a tall oak tree (橡树) grew by the river. It was strong and 21 , with thick branches and deep roots (根). Around it grew many 22 reeds (芦苇). The oak often laughed at them. “You are too weak to survive any storm,” it said. The reeds remained quiet and did not answer.
One day, a terrible 23 came. The wind beat against the earth and the rain fell thick and fast.

二、阅读理解
Jim Hawkins hid behind a big barrel. His heart was beating fast when listening to the dangerous pirates (海盗) talking.
“Listen, my friends,” Long John Silver said quietly “Tomorrow morning, when we reach the island, we will take the treasure and kill anyone who tries to stop us.”
“But what about the boy and the other gentlemen on this ship ” asked one of the pirates nervously.
“Ha!” Silver said angrily. “They don’t know our real plans. Once we find where the treasure is, they will be useless to us.”
Jim felt very scared because he knew how dangerous they were. These men, in fact, were bad sailors and were planning to kill them.
“What if they find out our plan too early ” another pirate asked worriedly.
“Then we will have to act quickly,” Silver answered coldly. “I have killed many people. A young boy and a few gentlemen are no real danger to skilled pirates like us.”
“Yes, Captain Silver,” the men said together excitedly.
Jim knew he must tell his friends about it right away. Quietly, he began to move away from his hiding place, but suddenly his foot hit a wooden board and made a loud noise.
“What was that ” Silver asked sharply, looking around the dark places.
“Maybe just the ship moving,” one pirate said.
“Maybe,” Silver said, “but be careful. We cannot have any problems at this important time.”
Jim held his breath, hoping they would not find him. Everyone’s safety depended on his ability to get away from it and tell his friends about the danger.

【导语】本文讲述了父亲用《庄子》中鲲鹏的故事激励儿子钱学森，让他树立远大理想，最终钱学森成为伟大科学家，为中国航天事业做出巨大贡献。
1．句意：突然，一只鹰吸引了他的目光——它越飞越高，直到消失不见。
老鹰一直在飞，这个过程会一直持续，直到它飞出视野消失不见为止。until表示“直到……才”，符合逻辑。because因为，if如果，or或者，均不符合。
2．句意：然后父亲给儿子讲了一则关于鲲的中国故事：一条巨大的鱼可以变成一只名叫鹏的鸟。
主语是“a huge fish”，表示“把它自己变成鸟”，用反身代词itself。表示“它自己”，符合语境。himself他自己，herself她自己，yourself你自己，均不符合。
3．句意：鹏的翅膀如此之大，以至于它们可以覆盖天空。
后文提到翅膀可以遮住天空，说明翅膀足够大，big表示“大的”，符合语境。strong强壮的，heavy重的，high高的，均不符合。
4．句意：它笑着说：“大风让它飞那么高很危险，但是在灌木丛中飞既安全又有趣。”
麻雀转折说在灌木丛飞既安全又有趣，对应前文它认为借大风飞很高是危险的，dangerous表示“危险的”，符合语境。awful糟糕的，safe安全的，worried担心的，均不符合。
5．句意：我飞得高还是低都没有关系。
根据后文麻雀的回答，它不介意飞得高还是低，high or low表示“高或低”，符合语境。big or small大或小，far or near远或近，strong or weak强或弱，均不符合。
6．句意：这个故事对男孩来说是很大的启发。
根据后文男孩树立了远大理想，inspiration表示“启发、鼓舞”，符合语境。research研究，development发展，failure失败，均不符合。
7．句意：他认真地对父亲说：“我想飞得高，做有意义的事，而不是做一只小麻雀。”
男孩不想做小麻雀，instead of表示“而不是”，符合逻辑。along with和……一起，because of因为，as for至于，均不符合。
8．句意：他的父亲笑了，知道一个伟大的梦想正在他儿子的心中深深扎根。
梦想在心中扎根很深，deeply表示“深深地”，符合语境。loudly大声地，widely广泛地，highly高度地，均不符合。

【导语】本文讲述了一朵云为了让自己变得更大而决定不再下雨，结果导致下方的田野变成荒漠，自己也因得不到新水而变小。后来云意识到自己的错误，飞到新的绿色田野，不再自私，最终田野变得更绿，人们看到彩虹，云也如愿变得更大。
【详解】11．句意：她想让自己变得更大，所以她决定再也不下雨了。
云为了让自己变大做出了不再下雨的决定，decided“决定”符合。provided“提供”、discussed“讨论”均不符合此处语境。
12．句意：但很快，她下方的田野变得干燥起来。
上文提到云不再下雨，那么田野会因缺水而变干，dry“干燥的”符合。blind“失明的”、beautiful“美丽的”与田野因缺水产生的状态无关。
13．句意：首先，河流里的水用完了。
因为云不再下雨，河流会先没水，ran out of“用完”符合。tried out for“参加选拔”、came up with“想出”与河流没水的情况不相关。
14．句意：植物都死了。
河流没水，湖泊变干，植物会因缺水而死亡，died“死亡”符合。grew“生长”、lay“躺”不符合植物因缺水导致的结果。
15．句意：结果，慢慢地，她变得比以前更小了。
上文说云没有新水来源，这是导致她变小的原因，As a result“结果”符合。As soon as“一……就……”、As usual“像往常一样”均不符合此处逻辑。
16．句意：她的自私是她面临困难的原因。
云因为自私不再下雨，导致一系列不良后果，自己面临困难，difficulty“困难”符合。happiness“幸福”、success“成功”与云因自私产生的结果不符。
17．句意：云变得如此小以至于她飞到了一个仍然是绿色的新田野。
空后是形容词small，固定搭配“so...that...”表示“如此……以至于……”，so符合此处结构。such修饰名词，too一般用于“too...to...”结构，均不符合。
18．句意：但这次，她知道她必须改变自己。
云意识到自己的错误，要改变的是自己，主语是she，对应的反身代词是herself“她自己”。myself“我自己”、yourself“你自己”不符合语境。
19．句意：那里的人们在下雨后看到了美丽的彩虹。
根据常识，下雨后会出现彩虹，after“在……之后”符合。though“虽然”、unless“除非”不符合此处逻辑。
20．句意：与此同时，云如她以前所愿变得更大。
上文提到云一开始想让自己变得更大，现在她改变了，实现了愿望，bigger“更大的”符合。greener“更绿的”、smaller“更小的”不符合云实现愿望的描述。
21．C 22．B 23．D 24．C 25．A 26．D 27．C 28．B 29．C 30．D
【导语】本文讲述骄傲自大的橡树嘲讽柔弱的芦苇胆小怕风暴，狂风来袭时橡树固执硬抗最终折断倒下，而芦苇懂得低头避让安然存活，借此告诉我们太过骄傲固执不懂变通易招致祸患，懂得谦逊审时度势才是真正的智慧。
【详解】21．句意：它强壮，还十分骄傲，长着粗壮的枝干和深深的树根。
根据后文橡树嘲笑芦苇“你们太弱了”，可知橡树自傲，proud“骄傲的”正确。curious“好奇的”、happy“快乐的”、friendly“友好的”均与嘲笑他人的行为不符。
22．句意：在它周围长着许多细芦苇。
芦苇通常细弱，thin“细的”符合。strong“强壮的”与后文“weak”矛盾；heavy“重的”、deep“深的”不修饰芦苇形态。
23．句意：一天，一场可怕的台风来了。
后文描述狂风暴雨，typhoon“台风”正确。drought“干旱”、snowstorm“暴风雪”、earthquake“地震”与“雨下得又大又急”不符。
24．句意：在它周围，芦苇表现得截然不同。
橡树奋力抗争，而芦苇弯腰让风过去，行为不同，differently“不同地”正确。similarly“相似地”与行为相反；soundly“酣畅地”、terribly“可怕地”不合语境。
25．句意：你们甚至都不敢直面这场暴风雨！
橡树嘲笑芦苇不敢抗争，dare“敢”后接不定式，符合。stop“停止”、volunteer“自愿”、forget“忘记”均无法表达“不敢”。
26．句意：当风停后，它们再次挺直身躯，安然无恙。
芦苇原本弯腰，风停后重新挺立，rose up“直立起来”正确。bent down“弯下”与风停后的状态矛盾；went along“前进”、woke up“醒来”不合逻辑。
27．句意：几分钟后，折断的橡树漂浮在芦苇丛中。
橡树被冲到芦苇丛中，among“在……之中”正确。below“在下方”、above“在上方”、between“在两者之间”均不准确。
28．句意：身处这样的处境，我们除非学会低头退让，否则就会被折断。
根据逻辑“除非学会弯曲，否则会折断”，unless“除非”正确。若用if“如果”则句意相反；whether“是否”、as long as“只要”不符合。
29．句意：真正的智慧不是最强，而是懂得如何根据情况改变。
根据情况改变自己，change“改变”正确。learn“学习”、think“思考”、hide“隐藏”均不符合“弯曲”的寓意
30．句意：橡树无言以对，漂走了。
它不再说话，said nothing more“没再说任何话”正确。everything、anything、something均不符合“沉默离开”的结局。
31．B 32．C 33．B 34．A 35．D
【导语】本文改编自《金银岛》，讲述了吉姆躲在桶后偷听到海盗阴谋，并试图逃脱去警告朋友的故事。
【详解】31．根据文中第二段Long John Silver说的话“Tomorrow morning, when we reach the island...”以及后文Silver看向“dark places”可知，对话发生时还没到第二天早上，且环境黑暗，因此故事场景发生在晚上。
32．根据文中第二段Long John Silver说的话“Tomorrow morning... we will take the treasure and kill anyone who tries to stop us.”可知，他们的真实计划是夺取宝藏并杀害阻止者。
33．通读全文可知，文章大部分篇幅是海盗之间的对话以及吉姆的心理活动和感受，如“Jim felt very scared...”, “Jim knew he must...”。文章主要通过人物对话和吉姆的想法来叙述故事。
34．根据故事发展顺序：首先文章第一句提到“Jim Hawkins hid behind a big barrel.”（c.吉姆躲在桶后）；接着他“listening to the dangerous pirates talking”听到了计划（a.吉姆听到海盗的秘密计划）；然后“Quietly, he began to move away”（b.吉姆试图悄悄离开）；随后“his foot hit a wooden board and made a loud noise”（d.吉姆的脚撞到木板发出噪音）；最后Silver问“What was that ”表示怀疑（e.Silver和他的手下变得怀疑）。正确顺序为c-a-b-d-e。
35．根据文中描述，吉姆虽然害怕，但他知道必须告诉朋友，并且试图悄悄离开去报信，这体现了他的勇敢（Brave）和为他人着想的周全（thoughtful）。他并不愚蠢、懒惰或严肃。
36．B 37．A 38．A 39．C 40．D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个外星人来到地球寻找新家园，却发现地球被垃圾和浪费能源的问题困扰，最终提醒人类要保护环境的故事。
【详解】36．第一段中Zaza自我介绍时说：“I’m looking for a new home”，第三段他再次提到寻找新家，因此他来地球的目的是寻找新家园。
37．第六段提到Mr Green看到报纸标题“More Rainforests Disappeared”后脸红，并试图藏起报纸，说明他感到羞愧和歉意。
38．第七段中Zaza在海滩看到“plastic bags, cans, newspapers and bottles”，因此①②③正确；他误以为这里是“recycling centre”只是他自己的联想，并非真的看到牌子，故不选④。
39．第十一段中Mr Green意识到Zaza说得对，空白处应表达“我们应保护地球”的意思，C项符合语境。
40．全文通过外星人的视角揭露地球的环境问题，最终目的是呼吁人们关爱地球、保护环境，因此D项最符合主旨。
41．B 42．B 43．A 44．C 45．D
【导语】本文主要介绍了世界读书与版权日的设立目的，以及中国四大古典名著的作者、时代背景、故事内容和翻拍电视剧的相关信息。
【详解】41．根据原文第一句“World Book and Copyright Day is celebrated on April 23 to improve the enjoyment of reading”，可知设立该节日是为了提升阅读乐趣，故选B。
42．根据文中信息：《西游记》1986年、《红楼梦》1987年、《三国演义》1994年、《水浒传》1998年，对比年份可知《西游记》最早，故选B。
43．根据原文“People went to Mount Liang, fighting against the authority.”可知，《水浒传》讲述了人们反抗官府的故事，故选 A。
44．根据原文“The four great classical novels are my favorites.”可知，这四本名著是作者最喜欢的书；A、B、D均与原文信息不符，故选C。
45．根据原文“For more information, visit our website”可知，可以从网站获取更多信息，故选D。
