1. (北京交通大学附中 2023 届高三开学英语诊断练习)
Alexis, 17, sat quietly in the passenger seat of her dad’s car. She let her eyes lazily scan the landscape for
wildlife. Then a deer came into view about 200 yards in front of them. “Dad, there’s a deer there!” Alexis said. It was a
male deer with sharp antlers (⻆) on each side of its head.
As the car moved closer, Alexis saw that the deer’s head was bent toward the ground. Then she heard a scream
and saw an arm fly up near the deer’s head. Alexis realized the deer was attacking a woman. Sue, a 44-year-old mother,
had been out for her morning run. The deer followed her and edged closer. “I knew I was in trouble,” Sue says. She
went to pick up a stick for self-defense, and the deer charged. It lifted her with its antlers and threw her into the air. Sue
could feel blood flew down her leg.
Within seconds, the deer had pushed her off the road. When Alexis and her father pulled up, the deer was
throwing Sue like a doll. Alexis looked into the woman’s terrified eyes, and before her father had even stopped the car,the teenager jumped quickly out of the car and ran toward the deer.
“I was kicking it to get its attention,” she says. Then her father, who had followed his daughter, pushed the deer
away from the women.
Alexis helped Sue into the car, and then applied a piece of cloth to Sue’s injured leg. “We’re going to get you to a
hospital,” Alexis said. Then she heard her father shout loudly. He had been knocked to the ground. Alexis took hold of a
hammer from the car and ran to where her father lay on his back. She beat the deer’s head and neck, but the blows
didn’t scare it away. “I was losing faith,” she says. “A couple more strikes, Alexis,” said her father. “You can do it.”
Turning the hammer around, Alexis closed her eyes and beat the deer’s neck with all her strength. When she opened her
eyes, the deer was running away. Alexis got in the driver’s seat and sped toward the nearest hospital.
After Sue was treated, she tearfully thanked her rescuers. “You expect a teenage girl to get on the phone and call
for help,” she says, “not to beat up a deer.”
24. What was Sue doing when she was attacked by the deer?
A. She was driving home. B. She was taking exercise.
B. She was resting on the road. D. She was feeding wild animals.
25. What did Alexis do to save Sue?
A. She pushed the deer away. B. She beat the deer with a hammer.
B. She drove the car to hit the deer. D. She hit the deer with her feet.
26. What is the best title for the passage?

Lately, my 90-year-old mother has been sleepier and sleepier. This is very strange and worrying. At the same
time, my 92-year-old father has been suffering his own health problems. It is a terrible thing to see my father struggle to
get my mother to talk, say something, when she doesn’t have the energy.
The other day, I recalled how my mother used to visit a woman named Mrs. Demopolis, a Greek immigrant, who
made the best baklava(果仁蜜饼) in the world! She gave lessons on baking it to my mother. Also, my mother often
baked baklava at home. As I spoke of this over the phone, my silent mother perked up and said how much she’d like to
have one again.
Now, they live in Florida and I live in Wales, UK, so I can’t go and bring her some baklava or even make somein her kitchen. But what I did suggest was that my father could buy some baklava at a Greek restaurant and I could do
the same, and wouldn’t it be fun to eat our baklava at exactly the same time and so, be together sharing the moment and
the pleasure? My parents loved the idea and we decided to do it.
Two days later we both had our baklava and shared the experience. It meant a lot to my parents, and to me, to do
this. My mother said she wanted to do this again, maybe with another food or even baklava again! Why not? And as she
only keeps losing weight instead of gaining, it is good for her to find foods that appeal to her appetite . It is becoming
harder to find ways to communicate over the phone, but this is at least a very good way to do so.

For years going home for the holidays has been bittersweet. I appreciate the opportunity to spend quality time
with my mom but it is painful for me to see her house littered with stuff.Clothes bought but never worn, and new items
in their original packaging carelessly purchased and never used. It’s evident that seeing the stuff on a daily basis
reminds my mom of a time when shopping was her way of spending money.
I didn’t fully understand the extent to which my mom was suffering until this week, when I saw piles of clothes
on her bed. “How do you manage to sleep every night with all that stuff, Mom?” I asked. To my horror, she replied, “I
do it because I know I have to get rid of all this stuff eventually; I am punishing myself by sleeping with them until I dothat. ”
Shocked and upset, I gently explained to her that punishing herself was only to make things worse,and that
everybody deserves a place to sleep in peace, no matter what mistakes they’ve made. I suggested she move all the stuff
upstairs, leaving her room comfortable to sleep in.
With patience and her slow but steady guidance, I helped her go through some of the piles and move them
upstairs. For the rest of the week I stayed there, she was in a better mood and was excited about going through the rest
of the house to finally get rid of her stuff—past mistakes and painful times. The items brought back painful memories
as we inspected and moved them, but I kept reminding her that removing them would allow her to move on and heal.
We finally sold so many things and took bag after bag to charity.
The stuff is just a sign of the destructive patterns of self-hatred on past mistakes. Only through the act of self-
forgiveness can we bring about a chain reaction of reorganizing—both of the house and heart.
28.What made the author feel bitter?
A．She couldn’t understand her mom’s sorrows.

When a Houston dad found out his eight-year-old son was being bullied, he didn’t get mad at the classmate whoteased him. Instead, he talked with the so-called bully and realized that the boy was struggling, too.
Aubrey Fontenot’s son, Jordan, told him a boy named Tamarion was teasing him. Fontenot decided to sit down
with his son and Tamarion to understand what was going on, and something unexpected happened.
Tamarion told Fontenot he was being teased at school, too. “I asked, ‘By who? You are big. You are huge. Who is
teasing you?’” the father said. “He said, ‘Just all the other kids, man. They are making fun of me.’” Fontenot learned
that Tamarion was getting teased for his clothes and shoes — his clothes and shoes were old and dirty. Fontenot then
spoke to the boy’s mother. “She kind of confirmed it,” Fontenot said. “And she said, ‘That’s the kind of situation.’”
He felt sympathetic to the young boy and wanted to help. So he asked Tamarion’s mom if he could take her son to
do some shopping.
Fontenot posted videos of their trip to the mall on social media and they went viral. Tamarion eventually smiled,
and then the two were laughing and singing together on their shopping trip. Just as if he were taking his own son to do
some shopping, Fontenot got Tamarion new clothes and shoes, and shared words of wisdom with him.
Then, the dad united the two boys. He said it was awkward at first — just a day earlier, they didn’t get along well
at school. But the two classmates started playing sports games together and soon became friends. It was not just about
the clothes and shoes. Tamarion gained a friend in Jordan, and a mentor in his dad. Fontenot said he was also bullied
when he was a child, so he knew it was important to listen to Tamarion’s story. He chose kindness instead of anger and
brought the two boys together. “I wouldn’t say that was the goal, but that was the reward,” Fontenot said.
24.What was Fontenot’s attitude toward his son’s being bullied?
A．Amazed and embarrassed. B．Angry and impatient.
B．Calm and sensible. D．Sad and discouraged.
25.What did Fontenot do to solve the problem of bullying?
A．He turned to the school for help.
B．He made the two boys united and join together.
C．He asked Tamarion’s mother to settle the problem.

26.What can we know from the text?

5.(河北省保定市2022-2023学年高三9月份考试英语试题)Growing up in rural Jiangsu Province, Yu Jigao showed a strong interest in fine arts at an early age and studied on
his own for years. His hard work paid off later. In the early 1950s, he made his way to Nanjing Normal University,
where he learned painting theories and techniques from some famous artists. It was then that Yu found his lifelong
artistic passion for gongbi. Gongbi paintings usually describe birds and flowers, symbols of beauty and joy, in an
artistic way with intense color.
After graduation from the art school in 1957, Yu began his professional career at the Chinese Painting Institute of
Jiangsu. He has since published a series of art collections. Since 1959, Yu has contributed a series of works to many
important sites. Yu’s works have also been displayed in a range of national and international exhibitions. From 1986 to
1997, he held his exhibitions in such places as Beijing, Guangzhou and New York. Both the themes and artistic
techniques have won widespread praise in the past years.
While observing traditional rules, he uses accurate lines, powerful brush movements as well as the interplay
between dark and light to represent the harmony of nature. Though he adopts a realistic style, he tries to enrich his
works with spiritual beauty through his brush. Yu says, “That feeling turns into the images of singing birds and elegant
flowers in my paintings.” Thanks to his careful observation of nature and artistic sensitivity, Yu is able to combine
realistic description with artistic expression in his brushwork.
Now as deputy director of the Academy of Chinese Gongbi Painting of Flowers and Birds and a national top-level
artist, Yu maintains a simple and easy-going style. In addition to artistic creation, Yu has devoted himself to promoting
his painting style as the cultural heritage of China. “Art is part of my life,” Yu says. “I am proud to be a flower-bird
painter. I hope to create a bright future for it through my efforts.”

My daughter was being thrown out of the sixth grade. The teacher said, “She may not be up to what we’re trying
to accomplish.” He was really saying she didn’t have the intelligence. I got mad because I knew she was smart, just as
my father had known I was smart when I was failing in school. We had her tested. I decided to get myself tested as
well, and found that the troubles she was having were exactly what I had had — dyslexia. By then I was a successful
television writer, and had won an Emmy Award for “The Rockford Files.”If I had known earlier that something beyond my control could explain why I was a low achiever, I may not
have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s. I was writing and writing. I was working for no other reason than to
hear people praise me, because I did badly in all my courses.
I once asked a friend who had always gotten an A, “How long did you study for this?” He said, “I didn’t. I just
glanced at it.” So he must be smarter. I began to ask, “What will happen to me when I’m not good at anything?”
Despite my doubts, I did become successful, and people now say to me, “So you’ve overcome dyslexia.”
No. You don’t overcome it, you learn to compensate for it. Some easy things are very hard for me. Most people
who go through college read twice as fast as I do. I avoid dialing a phone if I can, because I sometimes have to try three
times to get the number right.
Despite my weaknesses I view dyslexia as a gift, not a curse (诅咒). Many dyslexics are good at right-brain,
abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. And I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a
day. Writing is my strength.
The real fear I have for dyslexic children is not they have to struggle in school, but that they will quit on
themselves before they get out of school. Parents have to create victories for them, whether it’s music, sports or art. You
can make your dyslexic child able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard. But I have other things I can do.”
4．The writer decided to get himself tested as well because he________.
A．wanted to know if they had the same problem
B．didn’t believe his daughter had the problem

5．We can learn from the second paragraph that the writer________.
A．struggled and got better grades
B．didn’t work hard when he was young
C．was praised for overcoming dyslexia
D．was thankful not knowing of dyslexia earlier
6．According to the passage, a dyslexic person________.
A．is less intelligent B．always fails in school
C．reads more slowly than normal people D．performs worse in left-brain activities
7．What can we learn from the story?
A．Clumsy birds have to start flying early. B．God shuts one door but opens another.
C．Never judge a person by his appearance.D．No one can make a good coat with bad cloth.7. (湖南省长沙市长郡中学2022-2023学高三上学期月考)
Jim Thorpe is one of the greatest athletes of all time. He had amazing athletic abilities and was well-known
during his lifetime, yet that did not make Thorpe a stranger to adversity.
Thorpe was an American Indian from Oklahoma who developed his extraordinary athletic skills in his youth
through hard labor. It was also in his youth that he learned to endure hardship brought upon by racial prejudice. Many
would say his childhood was not easy. He grew up poor and at age 9 his twin brother passed away and a few years later
he lost both of his parents.
But that did not stop him from doing what he loved and pursuing his dreams. Nothing seemed to stop him, not
even stolen shoes. Just hours before Thorpe was going to compete in the 1912 Olympics, somebody stole his shoes.
Thorpe improvised(临时拼凑) by getting shoes out of the garbage. The shoes were two different sizes. He wore an
extra pair of socks on one foot to even them out.
He still went on to win two gold medals—winning each event he competed in except for one, the javelin(标枪).
The javelin was the only event he didn’t win, probably because he had never competed in that event before. It is
interesting to note that Thorpe had tried to throw the javelin once before in the Olympic trials. At the time, he didn’t
know that he could throw it with a running start. He threw it standing still and was placed second.
At the Olympics，he also took part in the decathlon(十项全能运动). He finished first in two events, third in
four events, and fourth in two more. Thorpe ended up finishing third in the world. He was undoubtedly a dominating
force that couldn’t be stopped and just kept on going.
I think Paul Dughi said it best, “ It’s hard to imagine now that pro athletes get paid millions of dollars just to
wear a particular brand of shoes. For Jim Thorpe, it didn’t matter what kind he wore.”
24．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．The adversity Thorpe met with led to his success.
B．Thorpe’s success was no guarantee of a better life.
C．Thorpe’s career brought him both gains and losses.
D．Thorpe suffered many hardships despite his success.
25．Why did Thorpe wear more socks on one foot?
A．To prevent the foot from injury.
B．To make the shoe fit the foot.
C．To stop the shoe from being stolen.
D．To show his problem-solving skills.
26．What most likely led to Thorpe’s failure to win the javelin?A．Loss of his own sports shoes.
B．A casual attitude towards the event.
C．Lack of experience in the event.
D．A shortage of talent for the event.
27．Which of the following words can best describe Jim Thorpe?
A．Loyal and enthusiastic.
B．Genuine and creative.
C．Tough and strong-minded.
D．Selfless and good-tempered.

I discovered the power of fear when I became stuck to my driveway, as if my feet were crazy-glued to the
cement (水泥). As much as I tried, I could not move them. The realization that my daughters were playing in Nancy's
house, just one-half block away, paralyzed (麻痹) my legs, making me unable to move when I neared the end of our
driveway. Dense, black smoke was rising from behind the Sycamore Maple trees on the other side of the street and was
enveloping three houses, making them barely visible. Nancy's house was one of them.
I tried to call out for my daughters, hoping to see them run safely to my arms, but my voice was also stuck-stuck
in my throat with no intention of coming out. There I stood, helpless, paralyzed and silenced by fear, unable to protect
the two lttle girls I loved more than even I had realized.
Although trapped in a body that couldn't move or speak, I could still hear. I could hear other mothers anxiously
calling their children. I could hear a frightening silence that covered the neighborhood instead of the usual happy voices
of children. And, finally, I could hear the alarm of the fire engine. As the alarm announced, "We're on our way," it
instantly dissolved the crazy glue that had held my feet to the cement and it unlocked the soundproof box that had
silenced my voice. I was free to make sure my daughters were safe.
As I continued down the driveway, two little girls, my two little girls, ran toward me from across the street.
They had come home to tell me about the fire in the garage next to Nancy's house. Not only did my feet and voice work
now, but my eyes were also in good working order and had no trouble producing tears.
24．Why was the author stuck to her driveway?
A．She was too tired to move her legs.
B．Thick black smoke blocked her view.
C．The cement on the driveway was still wet.
D．The fear for her daughters' safety struck her.25．What made the author able to move and speak again?
A．Shouting from other anxious mothers. B．Strange silence in the neighborhood.
C．The alarm of the coming fire engine. D．The courage to protect her daughters.
26．What does the author suggest at the end of the story?
A．She burst into tears of relief and happiness.
B．She was really thankful to see her girls saved.
C．She was too excited to believe what she saw.
D．She overcame her fear and fully recovered.
