Making a quick decision can be hard when it comes to saving a life even for grown-ups. But one high school student didn’t waste a second when it came to saving a drowning (溺水的) girl.
People say Chloe Payne is quiet. Her mother, Angela Payne, describes her as the kind of girl who doesn’t need too much attention, helpful and respectful (尊重人的). In other words, Chloe, a student at Louisville Male High School, is a gentle, sometimes shy 17-year-old. However, that wasn’t the Chloe who jumped into a pool at the All About Kids swimming pool to save a drowning 4-year-old girl on March 25.
“I was a little surprised by her courage,” Angela Payne said. Well, so was Chloe herself. When she saw that a little girl was not doing anything in the water, her newly learned lifeguard skills kicked in. “I jumped in and I rolled her over and she wasn’t breathing (呼吸),” Chloe explained. “She couldn’t do anything in the water, so I pulled her out and I started CPR (心肺复苏法) and she almost sat up at once and started coughing and crying.”
Chloe’s decision was so brave that even the Jeffersontown fire chief was surprised. Today was the first time in his 27-year career to present such an award to a young lady. “It’s the first time I’ve seen a student do CPR in our area and save a life, so it was pretty special,” Chief Sean Dreisbach said.
As for Chloe, if there’s one thing she’s taken away from this event, it’s about being on close watch. “It’s hard to give young kids advice,” Chloe said with a laugh. “They don’t listen, so I guess everybody has to be more careful.”
4. What is Chloe like according to Angela Payne
A. She is always respected by others. B. She enjoys a peaceful life.
C. She can be very noisy. D. She is always brave.
5. What did Chloe do to the girl
A. She sat her up. B. She hit her back softly.
C. She checked her breathing. D. She showed her how to do CPR.
6. What did Chief Sean Dreisbach say
A. Chloe did something quite unusual. B. Chloe followed other students’ lead.
C. Chloe had very special swimming skills. D. Chloe would be surprised about the award.
7. What does Chloe think of children
A. They have poor hearing. B. They think swimming is easy.
C. They often take advice lightly. D. They like watching others in the pool.

【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““It’s hard to give young kids advice,” Chloe said with a laugh. “They don’t listen, so I guess everybody has to be more careful.”(“给小孩子建议很难，” Chloe笑着说。“他们不听，所以我想每个人都必须更加小心。”)”可推知，Chloe认为孩子经常轻视别人的建议。故选C。

For Canaan Elementary’s second grade in Patchogue, N.Y., today is speech day, and right now it’s Chris Palaez’s turn. The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.
But he’s nervous. “I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…” Chris trips on the “-ld,” a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher, Thomas Whaley, is next to him, whispering support. “…Vote for …me …” Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion, Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.
A son of immigrants, Chris stared learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls (回想起) how at the beginning of the year, when called upon to read, Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.
Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley explains, “especially for a student who is learning English as their new language, to feel confident enough to say, ‘I don’t know, but I want to know.’”
Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast (夸耀) about themselves.
“Boasting about yourself, and your best qualities,” Whaley says, “is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”
8. What made Chris nervous
A. Telling a story. B. Making a speech.
C. Taking a test. D. Answering a question.
9. What does the underlined word “stumbles” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Improper pauses. B. Bad manners. C. Spelling mistakes. D. Silly jokes.
10. We can infer that the purpose of Whaley’s project is to _________.
A. help students see their own strengths
B. assess students’ public speaking skills
C. prepare students for their future jobs
D. inspire students’ love for politics
11. Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher
A. Humorous. B. Ambitious. C. Caring. D. Demanding.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文属于记叙文。文章讲述了纽约一所小学二年级老师树立信心，看到自己的优点，发起一项总统竞选演讲活动。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“today is speech day(今天是演讲日)”和“With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.(他有着明亮的黑眼睛，似乎是那种喜欢公开演讲的孩子。)”以及第二段第一句“But he’s nervous.(但是他很紧张。)”可知，Chris是因为做演讲紧张，故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段““I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…” Chris trips on the “-ld,” a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers.(“我今天在这里告诉你为什么你应该……应该……”克里斯说到了“-ld”，这是许多非英语母语人士的发音困难。)”可知，他发ld困难，故推知是他有些结巴，停顿不准确，stumbles的意思是“不适当的停顿”，即Improper pauses，故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast (夸耀) about themselves.(威利说，这个项目不仅仅是学习在公众面前阅读和说话。他想让这些孩子学会自我吹嘘。)”以及最后一段““Boasting about yourself, and your best qualities,” Whaley says, “is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”(“吹嘘自己和自己最好的品质，”威利说，“对于一个走进教室却不自信的孩子来说是非常困难的。”)”可知，Whaley老师这么做是为了帮助学生认识自己的优势，培养自信，故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president.(威利的这个二年级总统竞选项目的灵感来自于他有一天让孩子们举起手，如果他们认为自己永远不会成为总统。)”和“He wants these kids to learn to boast (夸耀) about themselves.(他想让这些孩子学会自我吹嘘。)”可知，这位老师很关心学生的成长。故选C。

In the concert celebrating the Tsinghua University’s 110th anniversary, Fang Jinlong, a master of the traditional Chinese instrument pipa, and three robots from the Tsinghua Moja Robot Band performed several Chinese music pieces. “I’m happy to see our performance can mix (融合) science and technology with traditional Chinese culture,” said Fang.
The robot band was founded in 2018. The band name “Moja” is from Mohism, one of many schools of thought before the Qin Dynasty. It is made up of three robot musicians, Yuheng, Yaoguang and Kaiyang, named after three stars. They played three kinds of traditional Chinese instruments: the bamboo flute (长笛), Chinese harp (竖琴) and paigu (牌鼓), a set of Chinese drums, at the concert. The team behind the band include students, teachers and graduates from Tsinghua University. They have professional backgrounds such as computing, mechanical (机械的) engineering and music composition (作曲).
The team’s chief scientist Mi Haipeng is an associate professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Tsinghua. He took part in the research and development of a robot rock band when he studied in Japan. That experience inspired his dream to make a Chinese robot band.
Mi said traditional Chinese instruments’ sound and playing techniques are different from those of Western musical instruments. The focus is more on the artistic conception (概念) and expression of the players. This kind of non-quantitative (非定量的) control brings challenges to Moja robot development. “In our research, we continuously explore how to solve these problems so that the robots can maintain the Chinese traditional characteristics when playing music,” he added.
Mi said the music pieces in the concert were specially made for the robots to play. The robots’ stage clothes were made with 3D-printing technology. He added that there are more performance plans for Moja in the future, introducing new music pieces. The team, meanwhile, would improve the musical expression of the robots.
12. What is the performance like according to Fang Jinlong
A. traditional yet creative B. modern and fashionable
C. funny yet meaningful D. dynamic and inspiring
13. What can we learn about the band
A. It has a stable performing style.
B. Its name came from online language.
C. It successfully mixes high-tech and tradition.
D. Its performers play western musical instruments.
14. Where can you find the difficulty of the band’s development
A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3.
C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.
15. What will the developers do in the future
A. Create more new robot musicians.
B. Get the robots to practise more often.
C. Design new clothes for the robots.
D. Improve the robots’ musical performance.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D

【12题详解】

【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段中的““I’m happy to see our performance can mix (融合) science and technology with traditional Chinese culture,” said Fang.(“我很高兴看到我们的表演能够将科学技术与中国传统文化相结合，”方说。)”可知，方锦龙说这次表演是传统与科技的结合，结合第二段中的“It is made up of three robot musicians, Yuheng, Yaoguang and Kaiyang, named after three stars. They played three kinds of traditional Chinese instruments: the bamboo flute (长笛), Chinese harp (竖琴) and paigu (牌鼓), a set of Chinese drums, at the concert. The team behind the band include students, teachers and graduates from Tsinghua University. (乐队由三位机器人音乐家组成，它们分别是玉衡、瑶光和开阳，以三星的名字命名。它们在音乐会上演奏了三种中国传统乐器：竹笛、竖琴和牌鼓。乐队背后的团队包括清华大学的学生、教师和毕业生)”可知，该乐队是有三位机器人音乐家组成，它们在音乐会上演奏的是三种中国的传统乐器，在乐队背后的团队包括清华大学的学生、教师和毕业生，综合以上信息可知，该乐队成功地将高科技与传统结合在一起。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Mi said traditional Chinese instruments’ sound and playing techniques are different from those of Western musical instruments. The focus is more on the artistic conception (概念) and expression of the players. This kind of non-quantitative (非定量的) control brings challenges to Moja robot development.(米海鹏说，中国传统乐器的声音和演奏技巧与西方乐器不同。更注重的是演奏者的意境和表现。这种非定量控制给Moja机器人的发展带来了挑战。)”可知，中国传统乐器更注重演奏者的意境和表现，给Moja机器人的发展带来了挑战，所以第四段陈述了机器人乐队发展面临的困难。故选C项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的“He added that there are more performance plans for Moja in the future, introducing new music pieces. The team, meanwhile, would improve the musical expression of the robots. (他补充说，Moja未来还有更多的演出计划，推出新的音乐作品。与此同时，该团队将改进机器人的音乐表现力。)”可知，米海鹏补充说，Moja有更多的演出计划，同时，该团队将改进机器人的音乐表达，由此可知，研发人员将改进机器人乐队的音乐表现力。故选D项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Grandma called me in from the yard. “Would you please go to the store for me I’m ready to bake rolls, and there isn’t enough yeast(酵母). Take a quarter from my little change purse.”
I found Grandma’s purse and put the quarter in my pocket. I was soon in the little general store that served our farming community.
“Mr.Jenkins,”I said,“Grandma needs some yeast.”
Mr.Jenkins set three cakes of yeast on the counter(柜台). His eyes twinkled(眨眼), and he smiled at me. “And what do you need ”
knew what he meant. I was always allowed to pick a cent’s candy when I came to the store with Grandma.But Grandma wasn’t here, and she hadn’t said anything about spending a penny.
“How much change do I have from a quarter ” I asked.
“Four cents,” Mr. Jenkins replied. “The yeast is seven cents a cake.”
I thought that over quickly. I would have four cents back. I was sure Grandma wouldn’t care if l spent one cent, and if she were here, she might even say I could have them all. The longer I looked at the candy, the more certain I became that I needed one cent’s worth as a reward for coming to the store alone.
As Mr.Jenkins handed me the candy and three cents, a voice inside me said this was not a really honest thing to do. That wasn’t my money, and I hadn’t asked if I might spend it.However, I put the cents in my pocket and started home, running past Uncle Roy, who was heading in the direction of my home.
“Thank you,” Grandma said when I laid the yeast on the table. “Did you put the change back in my purse ”
“Yes, Grandma,” I replied, hurrying out to the passage(走廊), I hadn’t really lied to Grandma.I argued with myself. I did put back all the change I had.

【答案】作答示例：
I knew I had cheated Grandma and I was nervous. As I was wondering what to do, Uncle Roy came to the house for a glass of tea. Finding that I looked anxious, he sat down beside me on the steps. “Something on your mind ” He asked. “I guess so I’m thinking it over,” I replied slowly. “If there’s something you should do, I’d advise you to get busy and do it.” He said as he got up to leave.
I watched Uncle Rov make his way back, his words repeating in my mind. Grandma loved me so much that I couldn’t afford to keep anything from her. I went back to the kitchen while Grandma was taking the hot rolls out. I gathered all my courage and told her about the candy with a shame. She nodded when I finished my story. “I’m glad you told me about the cents, and of course I’ll forgive you, honey.” Smiling, Grandma gave me a big hug, and suddenly I felt a great sense of relief.

Making a quick decision can be hard when it comes to saving a life even for grown-ups. But one high school student didn’t waste a second when it came to saving a drowning (溺水的) girl.
People say Chloe Payne is quiet. Her mother, Angela Payne, describes her as the kind of girl who doesn’t need too much attention, helpful and respectful (尊重人的). In other words, Chloe, a student at Louisville Male High School, is a gentle, sometimes shy 17-year-old. However, that wasn’t the Chloe who jumped into a pool at the All About Kids swimming pool to save a drowning 4-year-old girl on March 25.
“I was a little surprised by her courage,” Angela Payne said. Well, so was Chloe herself. When she saw that a little girl was not doing anything in the water, her newly learned lifeguard skills kicked in. “I jumped in and I rolled her over and she wasn’t breathing (呼吸),” Chloe explained. “She couldn’t do anything in the water, so I pulled her out and I started CPR (心肺复苏法) and she almost sat up at once and started coughing and crying.”
Chloe’s decision was so brave that even the Jeffersontown fire chief was surprised. Today was the first time in his 27-year career to present such an award to a young lady. “It’s the first time I’ve seen a student do CPR in our area and save a life, so it was pretty special,” Chief Sean Dreisbach said.
As for Chloe, if there’s one thing she’s taken away from this event, it’s about being on close watch. “It’s hard to give young kids advice,” Chloe said with a laugh. “They don’t listen, so I guess everybody has to be more careful.”
4. What is Chloe like according to Angela Payne
A. She is always respected by others. B. She enjoys a peaceful life.
C. She can be very noisy. D. She is always brave.
5 What did Chloe do to the girl
A. She sat her up. B. She hit her back softly.
C. She checked her breathing. D. She showed her how to do CPR.
6. What did Chief Sean Dreisbach say
A. Chloe did something quite unusual. B. Chloe followed other students’ lead.
C. Chloe had very special swimming skills. D. Chloe would be surprised about the award.
7. What does Chloe think of children
A. They have poor hearing. B. They think swimming is easy.
C. They often take advice lightly. D. They like watching others in the pool.

For Canaan Elementary’s second grade in Patchogue, N.Y., today is speech day, and right now it’s Chris Palaez’s turn. The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.
But he’s nervous. “I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…” Chris trips on the “-ld,” a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher, Thomas Whaley, is next to him, whispering support. “…Vote for …me …” Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion, Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.
A son of immigrants, Chris stared learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls (回想起) how at the beginning of the year, when called upon to read, Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.
Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley explains, “especially for a student who is learning English as their new language, to feel confident enough to say, ‘I don’t know, but I want to know.’”
Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast (夸耀) about themselves.
“Boasting about yourself, and your best qualities,” Whaley says, “is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”
8. What made Chris nervous
A. Telling a story. B. Making a speech.
C. Taking a test. D. Answering a question.
9. What does the underlined word “stumbles” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Improper pauses. B. Bad manners. C. Spelling mistakes. D. Silly jokes.
10. We can infer that the purpose of Whaley’s project is to _________.
A. help students see their own strengths
B. assess students’ public speaking skills
C. prepare students for their future jobs
D. inspire students’ love for politics
11. Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher
A. Humorous. B. Ambitious. C. Caring. D. Demanding.
D
In the concert celebrating the Tsinghua University’s 110th anniversary, Fang Jinlong, a master of the traditional Chinese instrument pipa, and three robots from the Tsinghua Moja Robot Band performed several Chinese music pieces. “I’m happy to see our performance can mix (融合) science and technology with traditional Chinese culture,” said Fang.
The robot band was founded in 2018. The band name “Moja” is from Mohism, one of many schools of thought before the Qin Dynasty. It is made up of three robot musicians, Yuheng, Yaoguang and Kaiyang, named after three stars. They played three kinds of traditional Chinese instruments: the bamboo flute (长笛), Chinese harp (竖琴) and paigu (牌鼓), a set of Chinese drums, at the concert. The team behind the band include students, teachers and graduates from Tsinghua University. They have professional backgrounds such as computing, mechanical (机械的) engineering and music composition (作曲).
The team’s chief scientist Mi Haipeng is an associate professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Tsinghua. He took part in the research and development of a robot rock band when he studied in Japan. That experience inspired his dream to make a Chinese robot band.
Mi said traditional Chinese instruments’ sound and playing techniques are different from those of Western musical instruments. The focus is more on the artistic conception (概念) and expression of the players. This kind of non-quantitative (非定量的) control brings challenges to Moja robot development. “In our research, we continuously explore how to solve these problems so that the robots can maintain the Chinese traditional characteristics when playing music,” he added.
Mi said the music pieces in the concert were specially made for the robots to play. The robots’ stage clothes were made with 3D-printing technology. He added that there are more performance plans for Moja in the future, introducing new music pieces. The team, meanwhile, would improve the musical expression of the robots.
12. What is the performance like according to Fang Jinlong
A. traditional yet creative B. modern and fashionable
C. funny yet meaningful D. dynamic and inspiring
13. What can we learn about the band
A. It has a stable performing style.
B. Its name came from online language.
C. It successfully mixes high-tech and tradition.
D. Its performers play western musical instruments.
14. Where can you find the difficulty of the band’s development
A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3.
C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.
15. What will the developers do in the future
A. Create more new robot musicians.
B. Get the robots to practise more often.
C. Design new clothes for the robots.
D. Improve the robots’ musical performance.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Grandma called me in from the yard. “Would you please go to the store for me I’m ready to bake rolls, and there isn’t enough yeast(酵母). Take a quarter from my little change purse.”
I found Grandma’s purse and put the quarter in my pocket. I was soon in the little general store that served our farming community.
“Mr.Jenkins,”I said,“Grandma needs some yeast.”
Mr.Jenkins set three cakes of yeast on the counter(柜台). His eyes twinkled(眨眼), and he smiled at me. “And what do you need ”
knew what he meant. I was always allowed to pick a cent’s candy when I came to the store with Grandma.But Grandma wasn’t here, and she hadn’t said anything about spending a penny.
“How much change do I have from a quarter ” I asked.
“Four cents,” Mr. Jenkins replied. “The yeast is seven cents a cake.”
I thought that over quickly. I would have four cents back. I was sure Grandma wouldn’t care if l spent one cent, and if she were here, she might even say I could have them all. The longer I looked at the candy, the more certain I became that I needed one cent’s worth as a reward for coming to the store alone.
As Mr.Jenkins handed me the candy and three cents, a voice inside me said this was not a really honest thing to do. That wasn’t my money, and I hadn’t asked if I might spend it.However, I put the cents in my pocket and started home, running past Uncle Roy, who was heading in the direction of my home.
“Thank you,” Grandma said when I laid the yeast on the table. “Did you put the change back in my purse ”
“Yes, Grandma,” I replied, hurrying out to the passage(走廊), I hadn’t really lied to Grandma.I argued with myself. I did put back all the change I had.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右：
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I knew I had cheated Grandma, and I was nervous.

I watched Uncle Roy make his way home, his words repeating in my mind.
