On warm winter days, Yang Liheng, 89, enjoys sitting by the window and looking through old photos. These photos bring him joy and happiness once more.
For Yang, one of the long-expected activities during the Spring Festival is to take photos with family members. On the early morning of the second day of the Chinese New Year when the whole family reunite, he would dress up and wait for the photo to be taken.
Yang became a photographer in the late 1950s. With his camera, Yang recorded the great changes of his hometown over time. “I had a painful childhood, but I got a chance to be a photographer after the founding（成立）of the People’s Republic of China.” Yang told Beijing Review. “I want to record, in the form of photographs, the local customs, the scenes and people’s brave spirit of fighting against the hard conditions here in my hometown.”
“I used to take pictures for everyone else, but seldom turned my camera at my family members,” Yang said. “My grandson gave me the idea to record the growth and development of my own family.” Taking family photos then became a tradition for Yang’s family. Though now some of his grandchildren are working and living in other cities, they try their best to return home during the Spring Festival and prepare for the special moment.
Last year was an important year for Yang Liheng. Most of his photos were displayed in Yinchuan to show the development of the area over the past sixty years.
14. What does Yang expect most during the Spring Festival?
A. Wearing new clothes. B. Having a big dinner.
C. Taking a family photo. D. Visiting his relatives.

All aboard! Let’s take a ride on the world’s highest railway—the Qinghai-Tibet Railway（青藏铁路）. Sit back and enjoy the journey. Get ready for the trip of a lifetime.
We’re leaving Qinghai Station. The scenery along the way is some of the wildest in all of China. Keep your eyes open as we race through this beautiful land. You might see a rare Tibetan antelope（藏羚羊）from your window.

Before we begin our journey, let’s learn about this amazing railway. It’s truly one of the great engineering wonders of the 21st century. When it was completed on July 1, 2006, the Tibet Railway set nine world records, including the world’s highest railway at 5,072 metres above sea level, the world’s highest tunnel（隧道）at 4,905 metres, and the longest tunnel ever built on permafrost（冻土）.
As we travel higher, the air gets thinner and thinner. Soon there will only be 50 to 60 percent of the oxygen which we are used to breathing. But don’t be afraid. Each rail car has two separate oxygen systems. One system spreads oxygen throughout the train at all times. And each passenger can also get a personal oxygen mask just like those used in planes.
Here are a few more things to think about as our train leaves the station. The designers solved three main challenges when building this great railway. First, the high altitude（海拔）made the task difficult because there was no enough oxygen. Second, much of the railway runs across permafrost, a type of ground that keeps changing as the weather warms and cools. Finally, the railway goes through some of the most sensitive ecology（敏感的生态环境）in China. Great care was necessary to make sure of the smallest possible influence on nature.
All three challenges were met, making our trip possible. All aboard! The train to Tibet is leaving in fifteen minutes.
18. Where are the passengers?
A. On a bus. B. On a train. C. On a ship. D. On a plane.
19. How does the text show the railway is amazing in paragraph 3?
A. By telling a story. B. By using a designer’s words.
C. By introducing its world records. D. By comparing the present with the past.
20. How many oxygen systems are there in each rail car?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
21. Which of the following increased the difficulty of building the railway?
A. The changing ground. B. The polluted air. C. The dangerous animals. D. The hot weather.
【答案】18. B 19. C 20. B 21. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了21世纪伟大的工程奇迹之一——青藏铁路。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。根据“We’re leaving Qinghai Station. The scenery along the way is some of the wildest in all of China”可知，乘客现在在火车站，故选B。
【19题详解】
推理判断题。根据“When it was completed on July 1, 2006, the Tibet Railway set nine world records”以及“The designers solved three main challenges when building this great railway. First..., Second,...Finally...”可知，第三段是通过介绍它的世界纪录来展示它的惊人之处的，故选C。
【20题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Each rail car has two separate oxygen systems”可知，每节车厢都有两个独立的氧气系统，故选B。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据“First, the high altitude（海拔）made the task difficult because there was no enough oxygen”可知，高海拔使任务变得困难，因为没有足够的氧气，故选A。

When I was little, I was really little. But my dream was big. I dreamed of being a basketball player. I tried out for the teams at school, but I was never given a chance.
As I got older, I did grow a little bigger, but not a lot bigger. On my 12th birthday, I decided to try a new sport: running. I told Grandpa. “I’m going to be an athlete.”
“Dave.” Grandpa began gently, “if you can’t be big, you can do something big.”
I ran 12 miles on my 12th birthday. On my 13th birthday, I did it again, but I added an extra mile. On my 14th birthday, I ran 14 miles. 15 on my 15th, 16 on my 16th, and you guessed it—17 miles on my 17th birthday.
All this running inspired（激发）another big dream. Someday, I’d run the Boston Marathon（波士顿马拉松赛）. I told Grandpa about my decision.
“But, Dave, you haven’t trained for the marathon. Are you sure you’re ready?” Grandpa asked. But he still promised to walk over and cheer me on.
I ran fast that day, But I fell at Mile 18 and was driven to the hospital. Later that night, I called Grandpa and told him I failed.
“No,” he said calmly, “you didn’t fail. You discovered something.”
“I did?” I asked.
“Yes, you discovered that big dreams don’t just come true. They take work. If you train and work hard, I promise to wait for you next year and cheer you on.”
I trained every day, running miles and miles. Sadly, just two months into my training, Grandpa died. He wouldn’t be waiting for my second Boston Marathon. I decided I’d run for him.
That day, I ran fast. “Keep going! You can do it!” His words filled my head as I forced my legs to make each painful step. As I crossed the finish line, I threw my arms in the air and cried, “Grandpa, we did it!”
22. Why did Dave fail to join the school basketball team?
A. He couldn’t run fast. B. He didn’t work hard.
C. He was not tall enough. D. He wasn’t a quick learner.
23. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph A refer to?
A. Adding an extra mile. B. Running on his birthday.
C. Training for the marathon. D. Trying out for the basketball team.
24. Which of the following words best describes Grandpa?
A. Creative. B. Modest. C. Generous. D. Encouraging.
25. What is the best title for the text?
A. Dream Big B. The Boston Marathon
C. Think Twice D. The Story of Grandpa
【答案】22. C 23. B 24. D 25. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了作者通过自己的努力终于参加了马拉松比赛，并且取得了成功的故事。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据“When I was little, I was really little. But my dream was big. I dreamed of being a basketball player”可知，因为作者不够高，所以没有进入篮球队，故选C。
【23题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“I ran 12 miles on my 12th birthday. On my 13th birthday, I did it again, but I added an extra mile”可知，在作者13岁生日时也坚持跑步，只不过是额外增加了一英里，所以it指代“在生日这天跑步”，故选B。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Yes, you discovered that big dreams don’t just come true. They take work. If you train and work hard, I promise to wait for you next year and cheer you on”可知，从祖父在作者失败时对他的鼓励可以看出，祖父是一个鼓舞人心的人，故选D。
【25题详解】
最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文多次出现“big dream”这样的词语，可以推断出本文也是围绕“大梦想”这个线索展开描述，故选A。

A library is a place to keep books and store knowledge. Recently libraries are not as popular as before because people prefer to use the Internet to find out information, rather than books. With a click of a mouse, it is possible to find out almost anything people care to know.
But being in a room that is full of books is a fantastic thing. Just think about how many words there are in a library. Each of those words has been thought of, and carefully chosen, by tens of thousands of people. That must make it a special place to be.
Maybe all kinds of things can happen in libraries. Sometimes, you see that a library is used for poetry workshops or guitar lessons. Also, they may have writers visiting and talking about their books. All of these activities are much better because they are in a library.
Lots of schools have libraries. If your school has a library, it’s probably not just a place to read books. Libraries are also quiet places to be. They are calmer than the playground or the dining hall. It’s the books that keep us calm and peaceful.

【答案】例文
Practice makes perfect
Have you heard of the saying “practice makes perfect”? I mean that we should practice unfamiliar things again and again. We’ll be able to perform it perfectly.
The practice of learning English is a good example. We are not living in an English speaking country. So, in order to learn it well, we need extra practice, such as reading English books, going to English corners, or communicating with foreigners. You can’t master English just by sitting at your desk. As another example, if we want to be skilled in using the computer, we also need to practice using it. Some children become little experts in computer, just because they play with it everyday. On the contrary, if we just stick to books, we will still feel confused when using computers. Judging from the evidence offered, we might safely draw the conclusion that practice makes perfect.
