When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
1：What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?

C. He liked the weather there. D. He had disagreements with his family.
【解析】
根据选段“Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue -sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.(除了我之外的家里人都很快适应这个城市，没有了我喜爱的沙滩和蓝天，我感到迷茫和无措)”可知，作者刚到伦敦的时候因为没有喜爱的沙滩，不能很好的融入到新的城市，感到很沮丧，故选A。
（二）
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
2：What does Titterton need to practise?
A. Counting the pages. B. Recognizing the “nodding”.
C. Catching falling objects. D. Performing in his own style.
【解析】
根据选段“Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.(无声的舞台交流是关键，每个钢琴家都有自己的“点头”风格来表示翻页，他们需要和翻页者进行练习)”可知，Titterton需要和钢琴演奏者练习识别他们的“点头”示意来翻页。故选B项。
（三）
Leslie Nielsen’s childhood was a difficult one, but he had one particular shining star in his life — his uncle, who was a well-known actor. The admiration and respect his uncle earned inspired Nielsen to make a career (职业) in acting. Even though he often felt he would be discovered to be a no-talent, he moved forward, gaining a scholarship to the Neighborhood Playhouse and making his first television appearance a few years later in 1948. However, becoming a full-time, successful actor would still be an uphill battle for another eight years until he landed a number of film roles that finally got him noticed.
3：Why did Nielsen want to be an actor?
A. He enjoyed watching movies. B. He was eager to earn money.
C. He wanted to be like his uncle D. He felt he was good at acting.
【解析】
通过文章选段“his uncle, who was a well-known actor. The admiration and respect his uncle earned inspired Nielsen to make a career in acting. (他的叔叔，是一位著名的演员。Nielsen的叔叔所赢得的钦佩和尊重激励他走上了演艺事业)”可知，Nielsen想当演员的原因是想像他叔叔一样。故选C项。
（四）
Then he found a digital mapping program. He spent years searching for his hometown in the program's satellite pictures. In 2011, he came across something familiar. He studied it and realized he was looking at a town's central business district from a bird's-eye view. He thought, “On the right-hand side you should see the three-platform train station”—and there it was. "And on the left-hand side you should see a big fountain"-and there it was. Everything just started to match.
4：How did Brierley find his hometown?
A．By analyzing old pictures. B．By travelling all around India.
C．By studying digital maps. D．By spreading his story via his book.
【解析】
通过文章选段“Then he found a digital mapping program. He spent years searching for his hometown in the program’s satellite pictures.(然后他找到了一个数字地图程序。他花了数年时间在该节目的卫星图片中寻找家乡)”以及“Everything just started to match.(一切都开始匹配了）”可知，布尔利是通过研究数字地图找到家乡的。故选C项。


一、知识梳理
记叙文讲述的是发生在当前或过去或将来事情的经过。简而言之, 记叙文就是讲故事,包括人物或故事情节。常见的记叙文根据其用途可分为文学记叙文和说明记叙文:文学记叙文以虚构为主,如趣闻逸事、传说、寓言、传奇故事、短篇小说、科幻小说等;说明记叙文以事实为依据,包括历史、传记、新闻报道、日记等。无论哪一种记叙文作者都要交代何人何时.
二、高中英语记叙文的语言特点
记叙文是中学英语阅读材料中最常见的文体,其语言特点有:
1、以一般过去时为主,其他时态为辅。合理使用丰富多彩的谓语动词时态,而这种复杂的时态特征在汉语记叙文中是根本没有的。正是有了动词时态的变化,才使英语文章中所叙述的.动作有了层次感和立体感。
2、广泛使用动词,特别是动态动词。由于这些动词的存在,文章就会充满“动感”, 而这种让往事历历在目的”动感” 正是优秀的记叙文所要追求的。
3、适当运用直接引语。直接弓|语的使用可以代替间接的主观叙述,简洁、生动地表达出事件发展的过程和各种人物的心理活动,充分展示人物的独特个性和人物之间的相互关系。命题顺序一般都会按照文章的脉络和故事发展的顺序层层推进。

三、解题技巧讲解
记叙文都是在最后一两句话抒发作者的情绪与感悟,可谓”- 篇之妙,在于落句”。阅读策略一文体吃透
1.读标题,预测文章主题;
2.读全文,抓住文章的6个要素,把握事件和情感发展两条线; .
3.读题划定位词,快速跳读定位,放慢速度细研究;
4.读第一段或最后一段找文章中心 (积极向上) ;


例题1：
The teen was abandoned by her family last summer, when her parents and two sisters moved to Tennessee.She found herself homeless and had to spend the night on friend’s sofas.
The school bus driver learned about Dawn’s situation and invited Dawn to move in with her family. Soon, Dawn had a job at Burns High School.She worked from 6 a. m.to 7：40 a. m.before the first school bell rang.She swept floors and picked up trash again in the afternoons, before diving into her studies in the evenings.
1：Who helped Dawn when she found herself homeless?
A．Her teachers. B．Her neighbors.
C．A Tiger Mom. D．A school bus driver.
解析：根据选段“The school bus driver learned about Dawn’s situation and invited Dawn to move in with her family. Soon, Dawn had a job at Burns High School.(校车司机了解了Dawn的情况，邀请Dawn和搬进来与家人一起住。很快，Dawn在伯恩斯高中找到了一份工作)”可知，校车司机帮助了Dawn。因此，Dawn发现自己无家可归时，帮助了她的人是D项“A school bus driver(一个校车司机)”符合题意。故选D项。
例题2：
When I became president of Sustainable (可持续的) Spartans in May 2020, I had no idea how to successfully run a club on the Internet. My team and I were challenged with how to attract members and continue sustainable projects on campus (校园) while most students lived at home.
Despite the circumstances, my incredible team and I pushed forward. We organized events members could participate in regardless of location. Instead of focusing on building a more sustainable campus, we thought it was more important to get more and more students to accept sustainability.
2．What made it difficult for the author to do her work?
A．Lack of her team's spiritual support.
B．The absence of students on campus.
C．The existing environmental problems.
D．Her inability to run sustainable projects.
解析：根据选段“My team and I were challenged with how to attract members and continue sustainable projects on campus (校园) while most students lived at home.(我和我的团队面临的挑战是，当大多数学生都住在家里的时候，如何吸引成员并在校园里继续可持续发展的项目)”可知，学生不在学校是作者很难开展工作的原因。故选B项。
例题3：
When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children.In the short time I knew you; you taught me about the type of teacher I desire to be. You never seemed disturbed by the mountain of paperwork or impossible work-life balance that comes with the role. Instead, you appeared to embrace every minute.
3：What can we learn from the paragraph about parents?
A．They need to sing songs before children.
B．They need to feel the affection as well.
C．They find it hard to handle their kids.
D．They find it necessary to hug the teachers.
解析：从选段前两句“When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children.(当你看到我烦恼时，你微笑着拥抱我，我知道一切都会好起来的。你让父母和我们的孩子一样感到被关心。)”可知，这位老师在家长们陷入麻烦时，会提供无微不至的关怀，就像对待孩子们一样，所以说家长也是需要关爱的。故选B项。
例题4：
We not only lived, worked and travelled together, we mostly socialized together, too. Under the first UK lockdown, our already closeness began to feel uncomfortable. While talking to Peter, I could see his attention drift.
For the first time in our 10 years together, we needed to be alone. I tried to manufacture this by going on walks on my own, but a short walk wasn’t doing the job. I had hiked in remote spaces all over the world but always in a pair or group — for safety reasons. I considered my options and hit upon an idea: the semi-solo hike.
Could we do a circular hike but walk in different directions? This would give us the space and peace of a solo hike — done by a person alone. It felt like a promising way out, and he agreed to give it a try.
4：What motivated the author to adopt the semi-solo hike?
A．Peter’s disinterest in her words.
B．Her habit of venturing into the wild.
C．The lack of privacy under lockdown.
D．Her desire to engage in outdoor exercise.
解析：根据选段中“Under the first UK lockdown, our already closeness began to feel uncomfortable. While talking to Peter, I could see his attention drift.(在英国的第一次封锁下，我们的亲密关系开始变得不舒服。在和彼得谈话时，我看得出他的注意力在转移。)”可知，在封锁下，作者和彼得的亲密关系变得不舒服，交流不自在，结合第三段中“For the first time in our 10 years together, we needed to be alone.(我们在一起10年了，这是我们第一次需要独处。)”以及“I considered my options and hit upon an idea: the semi-solo hike.(我考虑了一下自己的选择，想出了一个主意：半独自徒步旅行。)”可以推知，在封锁下，他们缺乏隐私，需要独处，这促使作者采取半独自徒步旅行。故选C项。


（A）
As a student,I thought English was easy to learn but then I did not like our teacher,so I didn’t pay much attention to it.Little did I know then how much English would be a part of my life one day.
Many years later,I was the branch manager of a company in Germany.Communication with a lot of people from different countries was just one of many daily tasks.I was having no problem understanding and communicating with any of them with one big exception:my boss is from England and English,spoken by British people,will always be my biggest challenge.
In 1998,I moved to the Bahamas.And I realized I was lost when it came to small talk.Fortunately,it did not take me long to have personal conversations.About a year after my move,I realized that I even started dreaming in English and all my thoughts came in English as well.It’s kind of funny when you experience that,especially since I lived most of my life in Germany.
Three years ago I met my husband,who is from Liverpool.The first couple of months I had headaches just from concentrating so hard on what he was saying.One part of our conversations in the beginning of our relationship became famous in our circle of friends.Let me share it with you:Here we are,sitting on the sofa,having a nice conversation and during that conversation he asked me,“Honey,how many holes do you have in your ear?”A weird(怪异的) question,I thought but answered anyway.
“Three in my left and two holes in my right ear,my dear.”I had not even finished my sentence when he broke out in fits of laughter.When he finally caught his breath,he said,“Honey,my question was how many holidays do you have in a year?”and started laughing again.
Even though I have lived and worked in an English speaking country now for over eight years,there are still words I don’t know.There are still times when I can’t find the right word to express myself.

1.B　由第一段中的“...I thought English was easy to learn but then I did not like our teacher,so I didn’t pay much attention to it.”可知,作者年轻时没有很努力地学习英语。
2.C　由第三段中的“...I realized I was lost when it came to small talk.”可知,作者来到巴哈马后发现自己不太会用英语闲聊。
3.B　由倒数第二段中的“Honey,my question was how many holidays do you have in a year?”可知,作者的丈夫之所以大笑是因为作者听错了他的问题,导致答非所问。
4.A　本文主要讲作者工作和结婚后常常用到英语,总会遇到各种挑战,故A项最恰当。
（B）
We began the task early in 2009,about a year after my grandma passed away.There are rooms upon rooms to go through,closets(橱柜) beyond closets,endless cupboards and two basements.There are small items,treasures,books,clothing and kitchen equipment in it and it is where Grandpa died in December 1993. 
My grandma and grandpa,who purchased The Hill Farm in 1964,loved The Hill Farm and spent weekends and holidays there.They enjoyed the natural beauty of their farm.They sometimes read and wrote there.The Hill Farm was where we members of the extended family enjoyed meals.I remember our playing hide and seek,and picnicking on the stone tables.Memories were made both inside and outside of Grandma and Grandpa’s country home.
In a few weeks The Hill Farm will belong to another family.Getting every last item out of The Hill Farm will be difficult.When I was packing up boxes and other belongings,my stomach clenched(收紧) at the thought that this rare and beautiful home will no longer be our family’s.But it is time to let go.As author Juan Nakamori wrote,“If you have been grasping onto something,try to let it go.Your empty hands will be ready to receive a new gift.”I am not sure what this new gift will be.Perhaps the pleasure will include seeing more lights in the windows,activities on the farm,and even getting to know the new family.
Anyway,I will hold on to the memories made at The Hill Farm and will continue to share them with my children.And now I will let go of The Hill Farm.May it be filled with love again,and with new gifts to be shared by the family who will call it home.

解析：
1.A由第一段及第三段中的“I was packing up boxes and other belongings”可知,作者和家人早在2009年初就开始了清理农场的工作。故A项正确。
2.A　第二段主要讲作者的家人之前在农场的幸福生活,即关于农场的回忆。
3.B由第三段中引用的Juan Nakamori的话及“I am not sure what this new gift will be.Perhaps the pleasure...the new family.”可知,Juan Nakamori的话令感伤的作者感到欣慰。
4.B　由第三段中的it is time to let go及文章最后一句“May it be filled with love again,and with new gifts to be shared by the family who will call it home.”可知,作者将放弃这个美丽的农场。


（A）
One of my first memories as a child in the 1950s was a discussion I had with my brother in our tiny bedroom in the family house in Bethlehem,Pennsylvania.
We had heard in school about a planet called Pluto.It was the farthest,coldest,and darkest thing a child could imagine.We guessed how long it would take to die if we stood on the surface of such a frozen place wearing only the clothes we had on.We tried to figure out how much colder Pluto was than the Antarctic,or than the coldest day we had ever experienced in Pennsylvania.
Pluto,which famously was downgraded from a “major planet” to a “dwarf planet(矮行星)”in 2006,captured our imagination because it was a mystery that could complete our picture of what it was like at the most remote corners of our solar system.
Pluto’s underdog discovery story is part of what makes it so attractive.Clyde Tombaugh was a Kansas farm boy who built telescopes out of spare auto parts,old farm equipment and self-ground lenses.As an assistant at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff,Arizona,Tombaugh’s task was to search millions of stars for a moving point of light,a planet that the observatory’s founder thought existed beyond the orbit of Neptune.On February 18,1930,Tombaugh found it.Pluto was the first planet discovered by an American,and represented a moment of light in the midst of the Great Depression’s dark encroachment (入侵).
Pluto is much more than something that is not a planet.It’s a reminder that there are many worlds out there beyond our own and that the sky isn’t the limit at all.We don’t know what kinds of fantastic variations on a theme nature is capable of making until we get there to look. 
1.Why did Pluto become famous in 2006 according to the passage?
A.Because it disappeared in the sky.
B.Because it lost its major planet status.
C.Because it was discovered by an American.
D.Because it was proved to be the coldest planet in the universe.
2.What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A.Pluto’s Romance
B.Pluto Was First Discovered by a Boy
C.An American Scientist:Clyde Tombaugh
D.The Days I Spent with My Brother in Pennsylvania
3.What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
A.Clyde Tombaugh discovered the darkness in the Great Depression.
B.Pluto was the only planet that was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh.
C.Clyde Tombaugh’s telescopes used for searching stars were very simple.
D.Clyde Tombaugh’s job was to build telescopes for Lowell Observatory.
4.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph is most likely to mean 　　　. 
A.Pluto is no less than a planet in the solar system
B.Pluto is much more than a planet in the solar system
C.Pluto is more important than any other planet in the sky
D.Pluto is not a planet in the solar system,but it is more than a planet
参考解析
1.B　根据第三段中的“Pluto,which famously was downgraded from a ‘major planet’ to a ‘dwarf planet’ in 2006...”可知,2006年冥王星之所以出名是因为其地位下降了,从一个重要的行星变成了一颗矮行星。
2.A　根据文章的整体内容可推知,本文主要介绍了冥王星被发现的过程以及对人类的意义,故“冥王星的传奇故事”适合做文章的标题。
3.C　根据第四段的第二句“Clyde Tombaugh was a Kansas farm boy who built telescopes out of spare auto parts,old farm equipment and self-ground lenses.”可知,克莱德·汤博所使用的望远镜比较简单。
4.D　根据最后一段的第二句“It’s a reminder that there are many worlds out there beyond our own and that the sky isn’t the limit at all.”和第三段中的“...because it was a mystery that could complete our picture of what it was like at the most remote corners of our solar system.”可推知,冥王星虽然不是太阳系边缘的行星,但是它的发现意义重大,比行星还重要。
（B）

参考解析：
1.A　根据第二段中的“At that time,women had few rights.They could not own property.Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband.Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers.Women could not vote.”可知,在那时,女性没有什么权利,地位是低下的,故A项正确。
2.D　通读第三段尤其是“Then she began organizing women’s groups to promote causes that were important to women.”可知,本段主要讲述苏珊·布朗奈尔·安东尼为争取女权而斗争的情况,故D项正确。
3.C　根据第四段第二句中的“...some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote.”可知,在苏珊·布朗奈尔·安东尼的努力下,美国一些地区修改了法律,给了妇女投票权;结合该段第三、四句可以判断,画线词指代“给妇女投票权”这一决定,故C项正确。
4.D　通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了美国历史上著名的女权运动领袖苏珊·布朗奈尔·安东尼。她为妇女争取了财产权、投票权等权利。据此可知D项最适合做文章标题。
（C）
Mike Hayes of Rochelle,Illinois,proved he was smart in his first year at college.In 1987,while he was a student in the first year of the University of Illinois,he had gotten $2,500 from a job working at a store,but that money would not go far to pay the four years of tuition and college expenses that added up to around $28,000.His middle-class family had already put his older brothers through college.While Mike’s parents would have helped him to pay,Mike decided he did not want his parents going into debt for him.He came up with an idea to solve this problem.
Mike wrote to Chicago Tribune writer Bob Greene.He wanted each of the newspaper’s readers to send him a penny.Greene thought the idea sounded fun and agreed to do it.He shared Mike’s letter with his readers on September 6,1987.
“Just one penny,” Mike said.“A penny doesn’t mean anything to anyone.If everyone who is reading your reports looks around the room right now,there will be a penny on the corner of the desk,or on the floor.That’s all I’m asking.A penny from each of your readers.”
In less than a month,the Many Pennies for Mike fund had around $23,000.Donations were received from every state in the United States,and even Mexico,Canada,and the Bahamas.So,Mike achieved his $28,000 goal and went on to learn food science from the University of Illinois.
In the end,Mike had this to say about the whole thing,“I just want to express my thanks to everyone...right now I’m feeling that the world is a pretty great place.”
1.What troubled Mike when he was in his first year at college?
A.He couldn’t afford his tuition.
B.He failed to find a part-time job.
C.His parents were unwilling to help.
D.His parents had huge debts to pay off.
2.What can we infer from Paragraph 4 about Mike?
A.His fund needed more donations.
B.He became rich and successful.
C.His plan really worked.
D.He asked for too much.
3.What’s the best title for the text?
A.Pennies for readers B.The value of education
C.Mike’s business in college D.The one penny college fund
参考解析
1.A　根据第一段中的“he had gotten $2,500 from a job...and college expenses that added up to around $28,000”可知,Mike负担不起他自己的大学学费及生活费。
2.C　根据第四段中的“Mike achieved his $28,000 goal and went on to learn food science from the University of Illinois.”可知,Mike筹集到了28,000美元,费用问题解决了,他可以继续完成学业,由此可知他的计划成功了。
3.D　Mike为完成大学学业向报社求助,希望报纸的读者每人给他捐助一分钱。所以文章的关键词是one penny,college,fund。故D项符合主旨大意,适合作标题。
（D）
Children from four Buckinghamshire primary schools visited Epilepsy Society to plant a hedge (树篱) as part of a Plant-for-the-Planet project.The children from these schools were planting a hedge in the garden of the Queen Elizabeth House at the charity in Chalfont St Peter.Plant-for-the-Planet gives children across the globe the opportunity to learn about the threats of global warming to the environment,and then put their new knowledge into practice as they plant new trees.
The day was organised by Bob Sherren who showed the children how to plant the planet-friendly line of trees in protective chambers (防护室) to shield them from hungry wildlife as they settle in their roots.Bob said,“The day really was ‘Thinking Globally,Acting Locally’ put into action.The children learned about the importance of planting trees as a way of helping to bring about climate justice for many living in poorer nations and of course enjoyed planting the trees too.” The eventual hedge,which will grow to full size over ten years behind the Queen Elizabeth House,is made up of trees such as oaks,silver birches and so on.
Bob added,“The children were also able to help people living at Epilepsy Society because they will gain some well-needed privacy from the hedge in time.The natural wildlife benefits too from the fruits and nuts that a hedge made from native species can provide as well as the possibility for any number of nesting sites.”
Emma Darlington,Epilepsy Society’s volunteer officer,said,“I think it’s so important to encourage the younger generation that the future is in their hands and that they can make a difference,whether it is through taking part in projects like this or spreading awareness.We hope they learn a little bit about the work we do at Epilepsy Society too — the trees they planted will be enjoyed by everyone here for years to come.”
1.What is the purpose of the Plant-for-the-Planet project?　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
A.To help children learn more about society.
B.To offer children colourful after-school activities.
C.To raise children’s awareness of global warming.
D.To teach children how to protect natural wildlife.
2.What does the underlined word “shield” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Separate. B.Take. C.Get. D.Protect.
3.What can we learn from Emma Darlington’s words in the last paragraph?
A.She hopes to popularise volunteering work.
B.She tries to drive the children to study hard.
C.She expects the children to take positive action.
D.She believes the younger generation is promising.
参考解析
1.C　根据第一段中的“Plant-for-the-Planet gives children across the globe the opportunity to learn about the threats of global warming to the environment...”可知,该项目的目的是提升孩子们对全球变暖的认识。
2.D　根据第二段中的“plant the planet-friendly line of trees in protective chambers”可知,将树种在保护室的目的是保护树免遭饥饿的动物破坏。
3.C　根据最后一段中的“I think it’s so important to...spreading awareness”可知,她期望孩子们能有所作为,积极参与到应对全球变暖的行动中。

Kath Walker is a very important figure in Queensland history.She was a leading Australian poet,writer,political activist,artist and educator.Kath grew up on North Stradbroke Island;she left school and home at 13 to work as a maid in Brisbane.
During World War Two Kath volunteered to serve in the Australian Women’s Army Service.She had to return to domestic service work to support her young sons when her marriage ended in the 1950s.
Kath had a lifelong commitment to advancing civil rights and improving the lives of her people.She was a leading member of Aboriginal (澳大利亚土著的) organisations that demanded Constitutional change to end state control over Aboriginal people.
This hard fought campaign resulted in the history making 1967 Referendum (公投).Australians voted to include the Aboriginal people in the census (人口普查) and to ensure they were covered by Commonwealth laws.
In the 1950s Kath also became interested in poetry.She joined the Realist Writer’s Group where she was encouraged to publish her work.Her first collection,We Are Going,was published in 1964 selling over 10,000 copies.
