（2022·广东·中考真题）
Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber. He has climbed many high mountains in the world. Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure（探险）in South America, covering 7,800 miles. He was even named Adventure of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018.
Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn’t feel fulfilled. He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains? Am I doing something helpful? How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?”
Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples（样本）from the places far away to do research. But scientists can’t get there themselves as such places are hard to reach——only the bravest adventurers can make it. Jerry thought himself could do something to help. He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventures to collect samples for scientists. By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life of Mountain Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists how plants live in extreme（极端的）conditions.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is most satisfying. “Such adventures had made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn’t important for me, what matters is doing something helpful while climbing the mountains. There is still much more we can do.” Jerry said to a newspaper.
1．what is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A．Jerry’s friends. B．Jerry’s achievements.
C．High mountains. D．A geography magazine.

Zhang Guishun, the Party secretary of Shashiyu, encouraged his villagers to do their best to pull themselves out of poverty. “In the ancient Chinese story, Yu Gong could move mountains with his strong will and hard work, why can’t we? Nobody was born to be poor?” Hearing his words, the villagers decided to make a difference.

However, the village encountered a new problem two decades later as the environment became heavily polluted by chemical plants and mine refineries built in 1990s.
The polluting factories were shut down in 2004, and villagers started grape cultivation, which soon became a main industry in Shashiyu.
In 2009, the city-level government invested over 1 million yuan($152, 723) to change the village’s exhibition hall into a museum in memory of development efforts made by earlier generations.
After 10 years, the village was called “National Forest Village”.

Anything we didn't eat at one meal was leftovers（剩菜）. I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon （煎培根）for us in the mornings, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn't actually taste like bacon!
I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by either myself my boys, my husband or my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong.
However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then.

Amy carried the milk back to Mama, then wandered up the road. Roy, a village boy, was trying to stand on a horse’s back. “No wonder they don’t trust kids with anything important,” Amy thought.

“Victor!” Amy called to one of the boys. “Go get Roy’s mama, and find someone with a truck,” She turned to the others. “Give me your shirts. We need something to tie his leg with.”
Amy then found a strong, straight stick. She carefully wrapped the shirts around Roy’s leg and the stick. Roy cried out in pain. “I know it hurts,” Amy said softly. “But this will hold it still until you get to the hospital.”
When Amy was done, she looked up and saw Roy’s mama and a man watching beside a truck. “Thank you, Amy,” Roy’s mama said. Amy helped them lift Roy into the truck, then they drove down the hillside towards the hospital.

An elephant and a crocodile were once standing beside river. They were disputing which was the better animal.
“Look at my strength,” said the elephant. “I can pull up a tree, roots and all with my trunk”
“Ah! But your skin is not nearly so thick as mine,” replied the crocodile. “No knife or tooth can cut through it.”
Just as they were coming to blows, a lion happened to pass.
“My dear friends !” said the King of all animals, going up to them. “Let me know the cause of your disagreement.”
“Will you kindly tell us which is the better animal?” cried both at once.
“Certainly”,said the lion, pointing across the river. “Do you see the soldiers’ metal hat on that wall?”
“Yes!” replied the beasts.
“Well, then,” continued the lion, “ go and get it, and bring it to me, and I shall be able then to decide between you.”
Upon hearing this, off they started. The crocodile, being used to the water, reached the opposite side of the river first, and was soon standing beside the wall.
Here he waited till the elephant came up. The elephant, seeing that the crocodile had no way of reaching their goal, raised his long trunk, and took down the hat quite easily.
They then made their way together back again across the river. The elephant was trying to keep up with the fast-moving crocodile in the water and became careless. When he was forced to turn sharply to avoid a floating tree branch, the elephant dropped the hat and it fell to the river bottom. The crocodile noticed the accident, so down he dived, and brought it up in his huge mouth. They then returned, and the crocodile laid the metal hat at the lion's feet. The King took it up, and turning to the elephant, said:
“You, because of your size and trunk, were able to reach the hat on the wall but, having lost it, you were unable to get it back. And you,” said the lion to the crocodile, “although unable to reach the hat, were able to dive for it and save it. You are both wise and able in your own ways. One is no better than the other.”
37．The underlined word "disputing" in Paragraph 1 means____.
A．playing B．quarrelling C．complaining D．deciding
38．What did the crocodile think was the best about himself?
A．His big mouth B．His strong skin
C．His swimming skill D．His dangerous teeth
39．How did the lion deal with the animals’ disagreement?
A．He ordered them to fight. B．He made a quick decision.
C．He suggested a competition D．He asked them to describe themselves
40．What caused the elephant to drop the hat?
A．The hat got wet in the river. B．He hit a floating tree
C．He was trying to swim too fast D．He wanted to fight the crocodile
41．How were the elephant and the crocodile able to complete their task?
A．By working together B．planning carefully
C．By sharing their ideas D．By listening to the lion
【答案】37．B38．B39．C40．C41．A
【分析】一头大象和一只鳄鱼在争论谁更厉害，他们互不相让。一头狮子经过，他们想让狮子来决定。于是狮子给他们布置了一个任务，让他们去完成。结果他们都不能单独完成这个任务，他们各自有自己的智慧和能力，不存在谁比谁更好的问题。
37．词义猜测题。根据文意和这个单词所在的句子which was the better animal.“哪一个是更好的动物”，因此disputing应该是“争论”的意思。playing玩；quarrelling争吵，争论；complaining抱怨；deciding决定。故应选B。
38．细节理解题。根据短文第三段“Ah! But your skin is not nearly so thick as mine,” replied the crocodile. “No knife or tooth can cut through it.”可知，鳄鱼说他的皮肤比大象的更厚，刀和牙齿都刺不穿。由此可知应选B。
39．细节理解题。根据短文第七段“Certainly”, said the lion, pointing across the river. “Do you see the soldiers metal hat on that wall?”和第九段 “Well, then,” continued the lion, “ go and get it, and bring it to me, and I shall be able then to decide between you.”可知，狮子让他们去把墙上的帽子拿来，然后决定谁是更好的动物。即狮子让他们展开一场比赛，由此可知应选C。
40．细节理解题。根据短文第十二段中The elephant was trying to keep up with the fast-moving crocodile in the water and became careless. When he was forced to turn sharply to avoid a floating tree branch, the elephant dropped the hat and it fell to the river bottom可知，大象努力追赶在水里游得很快的鳄鱼，于是变得粗心了，当他被迫急转身躲避一个漂浮的树干时，他把帽子掉了。由此可知应选C。
41．推理判断题。根据短文最后两段的内容可知，大象个头大，有长鼻子，能够得着墙上的帽子，但弄丢了帽子；鳄鱼够不着帽子，但帽子掉到水里时，他能找回来。因此他们是合作完成这个任务的。故应选A。

For his eleventh birthday, Lin was given a gift that would shape his life. On that day his father took him to the Children’s Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement: Lin would have to promise to study it for at least one year.
To that point Lin had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week. Then his father got him some paints hoping that Lin's artistic side would shine through. Those paints were now under his bed, still unopened. This time Lin’s parents would let him decide.
Lin's eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed all the courses on offer. He stopped at "Photography". He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. Although Lin's family weren't poor, they weren’t rich either, and a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.
The next course to catch his eye was "Language Art". He didn’t even know what that meant. His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Lin, a shy boy, could think of nothing worse.
Then he saw it. "Cooking" sounded like something he'd like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient, it could be done alone and it was also creative.
Based on Lin’s hobby history, his dad had doubts, but he agreed. Much to his parents' surprise, Lin kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practised at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they could eat his cakes. Lin got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.
The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again.
Now Lin is an adult and runs a successful restaurant. When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.

Last summer, Mac Hollan, a primary school teacher, was cycling to Alaska with two friends. On the way, his friends had to stop for a bicycle repair, but they encouraged Mac to ride on, and they would catch up with him soon.
Mac began to cycle alone. A few minutes later, Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that’s a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw immediately that it wasn’t a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him.
Mac’s heart jumped. He searched and took out his can of bear spray（防熊喷雾）. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal. To Mac’s relief（宽慰）, it fell back, shaking its head. A minute later, however, it was again by his side. It even attacked the back of Mac’s bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back, only to quickly restart the chase.
Mac was riding hard now. He waved and shouted at passing cars without slowing down. At that moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They found a dog—like animal running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the “dog” was a wolf. Mac heard a large car behind him.

（2022·广东·华南师大附中三模）
My school had a tradition every year during the eighth grade graduation: a gold and green jacket was given as a scholarship to the student who had kept the highest grades for eight years.
I was in Grade Eight, having been a straight A student since the first grade. My father couldn’t earn enough money to feed eight children, so I was raised by my grandparents. We couldn’t afford any fees at school. Obviously, there would never be a sports school jacket for us. This time, the scholarship jacket, was our only chance.
One day in May, I accidently heard arguing in my classroom.
“I refuse to do it! I don’t care who her father is, her grades don’t even begin to compare to Martha’s. I won’t lie.” That was my history teacher and he sounded very angry.
My math teacher’s voice sounded calm and quiet.
“Look, Joann’s father is not only on the Board, he owns the only store in town. We could. . . ?”
To this day I didn’t remember how I made it through the rest of the afternoon.
The next day, the headmaster called me into his office and told me there had been a change this year about the scholarship jacket. If I was unable to pay fifteen dollars for the jacket, it would be given to the next one in line. I stood with the pounding in my ears and tears in my eyes. I told him I would answer him the next day, then rushed out of the office and cried on the walk home.
I told my Grandpa the headmaster’s words. He asked me quietly, “What does a scholarship jacket mean?” “It means you’ve earned it by having the highest grades for eight years and that’s why they’re giving it to you.” Suddenly I realized it was not a matter of money. He spoke again. “Then if you pay for it, Martha, it’s not a scholarship jacket, is it?”
I walked into the headmaster’s office the next day and told him what my grandpa had said. Then I stood up to leave. I was almost to the door when he stopped me, biting his lip, as if thinking.
“Okay, Martha. We’ll make an exception in your case. I’ll tell the Board. You’ll get your jacket. ”

A．There was no clothes shop in her town.
B．Her father didn’t want to buy one for her.

2．What were Martha’s history teacher and math teacher arguing about?

C．Whose grades were better. D．Who worked harder at school.
3．What can you infer（推断） from the headmaster’s last decision?
A．He was kind and wanted to help the students who always had good grades.
B．He was a new headmaster in Martha’s school and did not know the tradition.
C．He knew the change was just an excuse and Martha was worth having the jacket.

Summer vacation became very boring when my best friends left for summer camp. Getting up later each morning, I was spending more and more time with my smart phone and the TV. But when my mom told me that I couldn’t use my smart phone, I felt like I had lost my world. I had nothing to do, circling from room to room all day.
One day, Mom asked me if I would accept a challenge to follow the same ant for ten minutes.
“What’s so difficult about that?” I asked.
“You might be surprised.” Mom smiled
“Is there a prize for the challenge?” I asked.
“Of course. But if you lose, you’ll have to do some housework.”
To win the challenge, I needed a special ant so that I could follow him easily. My eyes were fixed on a big ant carrying a leaf. “There he goes, Mom.” She set the timer for 10 minutes.
For the first time, the ant ran all the way to the gate. “Perfect!” I thought. Then, he came to a wide crack（裂缝）, he tried to cross, but failed. Then he disappeared into the grass. My heart sank as I saw myself cleaning the bathroom. Then surprisingly, he climbed out carrying a piece of leaf and was back on his way.
For the last three minutes, he dropped his leaf as if he would disappear again. To my surprise, he placed the leaf across the crack and walked across it to the other side like a bridge. Wow!
Just then, my mom’s timer rang. I was lucky to win my prize. But I was mostly encouraged by the ant that actually created its own bridge. Now Mom has allowed me to have my phone, but I learned there is still more other fun in life.

Teachers are often considered to be engineers of the human soul. They are expected to spread knowledge, ideas and truth. There’s one person in China who is called the “teacher of teachers”. He is Tao Xingzhi, a Chinese educator.
Born in Anhui province, China, in 1891, Tao studied abroad for educational philosophy. When Tao returned to China in 1917 and began his own career as an educator, he did not blindly follow western education methods or theories. In fact, he changed the saying of “Education is life itself” to “Life is education”. Similarly, instead of “school as society(社会)”, he saw it as “society as school”.
For Tao, education is an active experience in real-life instead of telling and being told. He supported “unity of teaching, learning, and reflective(反思的) acting”.
Besides developing education methods, Tao also tried his best to improve mass education. After doing surveys in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai in 1921, Tao was surprised to learn that in China more than 70% of the people in the city didn’t know how to read or write.
To solve the problem, Tao organized young workers and farmers to study while working. To deal with the shortage of teachers and money, in 1927, Tao set up Xiaozhuang Normal College in Nanjing to train teachers and educators, most of whom became teachers at schools in the countryside.
In January 1934, he started the “Little Teacher” movement in which young students were encouraged to serve as teachers to others, even to those older than themselves. Under Tao’s guidance, over 18,000 “little teachers” were invited in Shanghai within 10 months. It later included 28 provinces and cities as a key nationwide education movement. Even in the fight against the Japanese army, Tao never forgot his dream. He founded a middle school in Chongqing and offered free education to poor children.
Maybe Tao’s motto is the best explanation for his life. “Giving a whole heart, yet taking nothing in return, not even a leaf of grass.”
13．What is the correct order of Tao Xingzhi’s life experiences?
a. He did surveys in different places in China.
b. He went to the US to study educational philosophy.
c. He began to build colleges to train teachers and educators.
d. He called on young students to be teachers to others in need.
e. He returned to China and started his own career as an educator.
A．a—c—b—d—e B．a—d—c—e—b C．b—e—a—c—d D．b—c—e—a—d
14．The underlined phrase “mass education” in Paragraph 4 may mean education for ________?
A．young children B．ordinary people C．kids with great talent D．poor workers
15．According to the passage, which of the following ideas may Tao Xingzhi agree with?
A．School is the best place to learn knowledge and values.
B．Students should learn from the real life.
C．Education is telling and being told between teachers and students.
D．It is the most important to teach students practical skills in school.

A．Life is Education B．Little Teacher Movement

On February 4, 2022, we witnessed the opening of the Beijing winter Olympic games, which made Beijing the first city in the world to play host to both summer Olympic games and winter Olympic games. Are there any secrets between the two Olympic games? In 2019, the Water Cube(水立方) finished its first transition from a swimming pool to an Ice rink, turning itself into an Ice Cube, where the curling competitions were held.
How did the Water Cube transform into the Ice Cube? First, dry off the water in the pool. Second, build scaffolds, which can be changed to a different form. Third, lay the foundation for the skating rink. So far, the Water Cube has finished three transformations, making it the first venue in the world to have held both swimming and curling(冰壶)events. After the Winter Olympic Games, the Water Cube will make regular transitions between water and ice, where it will lend itself to water sports in spring, summer, and autumn and ice sports in winter.
One venue, two functions. The water cube is an example of a sustainable (可持续的) Olympic venue. Sustainability has been shown in every venue for the Beijing Winter Olympics. This venue will keep playing host to World Cups and World series in the following years. With landmarks and other buildings in it, this venue can hold some concerts and shows. Rock climbing or skateboarding events can also be held here.
From Beijing Olympic games in 2008 to the Beijing Winter Olympic games 14 years later, the Water Cube has transformed into the Ice Cube. Time flies, our passion persists. The Olympic Games is more than just a sports event.It pushes the development of the city, together for a shared future.

In 2021, Zhang Guimei sent 150 female students to college from a free all-girls high school she had founded in southwest China’s deep mountains. For the past 13 years, a total of 1,954 female students have graduated from this school, the first and only one of its kind in the country.
“To educate a girl is to change the destiny of three generations,” Zhang said. The teacher from southwest China’s Yunnan Province was presented with the July 1 Medal at a ceremony in Beijing on Tuesday in 2021.
Zhang was born to a family in Heilongjiang Province in 1957. At the age of 17, she came with her sister to Yunnan. She met her husband in Dali and worked as a teacher in a local school.
But the good times didn’t last long. Her husband died in the mid-1990s, five years into their marriage. Zhang was so sad that she packed her stuff and went some 260 kilometers away to Huaping, a county in the mountains.
After becoming a “mother” at a “Children’s Home” in 2001, Zhang learned more about the backgrounds of those young kids. Some of the mothers died from childbirth because of medical misconceptions, leaving behind their newborns.
Over time, Zhang found that the students in poor areas faced unequal access to good education. Some girls were even pulled out of class just before the college entrance exam because they had to provide for their brothers.
In 2002, Zhang came up with an idea, which, to many, seemed crazy: to found a free high school for girls. That was a tough task. She had to raise money and hire teachers. Six years later, she founded the Huaping All-Girls High School. With the goal of never letting a girl fall behind in schooling, Zhang often works overtime even though she suffers from different illnesses all the time. She even has walked to almost every family deep in the mountains, talking to the parents about the importance of education for girls.
Because of Zhang’s efforts to improve female education in China, more girls can change their destiny.
22．Why did Zhang Guimei found the Huaping All-Girls High School? ________
A．She wanted to provide more jobs for the girls. B．She really enjoyed teaching in the countryside.
C．She hoped to help the poor girls get educated. D．She desired to earn more money from it.
23．What order did the following events take place? ________

e.Zhang found some girls were forced to leave school.
A．e—a—c—d—b B．c—a—e—b—d C．c—a—e—d—b D．b—a—c—e—d
24．Which of the following best describes Zhang Guimei? ________
A．Talented and diligent. B．Strict but interesting.
C．Hard-working and helpful. D．Humorous and successful.

She even has walked to almost every family deep in the mountains, talking to the parents about the importance of education for girls.

This Family Keeps Their Community
Warm by Cutting Firewood for Those in Need
Washington is home to lots of trees—it is the Evergreen State, after all—and it has lots of fireplaces and wood-burning heaters too. But what if you lived there and couldn’t cut wood or couldn’t afford to pay someone to do it? Luckily, Shane McDaniel and his twin sons, Harrison and Henry McDaniel, are happy to help. The three men cut truckloads of wood—then give it to those in need.
The idea actually started as a father-son relationship project, Shane told msn.com. “I cut wood with my dad. He just loved doing it,” said Shane. He wanted to pass along that feeling, so he and the twins spent the summer cutting. The result was a great wall of wood piled up(堆积) around their house. To buy that much it would cost about $10,000.
It was too much for the McDaniels to use themselves, and when the weather turned cold that November, Shane started thinking of others. He posted online: “IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF FIREWOOD AND CANNOT AFFORD IT, PLEASE PM [personal message] ME!…If you know someone who BURNS WOOD, please help me and my boys make sure NO ONE GOES COLD IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD．”
The response was immediate. One man offered to donate a wood-burning stove. Others raced over to Shane’s house with more wood. One woman, noticing the photo of the McDaniels, started to feel warm in other ways: “I don’t need the wood. But I am truly happy for what you have done!”
Single mom Katelyn Ticer, 29, and her four-year-old daughter depended on a wood-burning stove as their only way of heat, so it was so good to receive a truckload of firewood from the McDaniels. “To get that much wood brought me to tears,” she told msn.com. “So much stress and worry is off my shoulders. I couldn’t be more thankful.”
Shane is ready to help more people. “Giving is the reward,” he said. “It has nothing to do with how well it’s received; it’s about how much it’s needed.”
26．Why did Shane and his twin sons cut the wood?
A．Because Shane just wanted to pass along the feeling that he cut with his father.
B．Because Shane had nothing to do.
C．Because Shane thought this was a good way to know more his sons.
D．Because Shane and his twin sons liked cutting the wood.
27．How did Shane help his neighbors?
A．He paid someone to cut the wood.
B．He gave wood to those in need.
C．He bought stoves to those in need.
D．He raised $10,000 for poor neighbors.
28．What does the underlined word “response” mean ?
A．result B．feedback C．reaction D．effect
29．What happened after Shane posted the message online?
A．Many people came to his house to get wood.
B．He received a lot of gifts from his neighbors.
C．A lot of wood piled up around his house.
D．Some people quickly offered to help.
30．What did Shane think of helping others?
A．Helping is not giving but receiving.
B．Helping others is helping ourselves.
C．Being needed drives us to give.
D．God helps those who help themselves.

26．A
