01 题型策略-细节理解题
真题回顾
（2024·浙江·中考真题）Every year, lots of animals around the world go on migrating (迁徙) journeys.
Some need to find food; others are looking for somewhere to produce and raise their young. Migrations can be long
and difficult for animals, but new research on birds has found that farmland along the way can help their progress.
In spring, hundreds of thousands of birds living near Lake Poyang, in China, fly north to Siberia, Russia. On
the way, they find places to stop and eat to keep their energy levels up for the long journey. Some birds, such as
geese, eat young grass that starts to grow at the beginning of the season. This food can last for only a few weeks.
And rising temperatures caused by climate change can sometimes make the grass grow earlier than usual. This
means that some birds are arriving too late to eat the grass. As more land is used for farming, the natural wetlands
where birds like to search for food are disappearing, too.
A team of researchers have recently chosen to follow 246 birds, including geese and tundra swans, that are
flying from Lake Poyang to Sberia. They find that the birds have changed their diets to adapt ( 适应) to the
environments they pass through. As well as eating grass from the wetlands along the way, the birds are also eating
seeds (种子) dropped by farmers.
The researchers believe that seeds will become a more important part of migrating birds’ diets as more
natural wetlands disappear. They suggest that if farmers use different ways of harvesting, such as using machines
that leave behind more seeds in fields, it could help to feed migrating birds. However, they also say wetlands must
be protected, so the birds can enjoy different foods during their long journeys.
1. Which can be a reason for animal migration according to Paragraph 1?
A. Raising their babies. B. Enjoying the journey.
C. Sending food to others. D. Taking care of the old.
2. What problem might the birds meet when flying from Lake Poyang to Siberia?
A. There is no grass growing along the way.
B. There is a sudden drop in temperature on the way.
C. Fewer natural wetlands are left for them to find food.
D. Some of the birds set out early and eat too much grass.
3. How does the birds adapt to the environments they pass through?
A. By changing their diets. B. By changing the way they fly.

C. By making their homes in wetlands. D. By making friends with farmers.
4. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Stop killing, stop polluting B. Save water, save life
C. Birds help harvesting work D. Farms help migrating birds

food like pizza. Guests at a pajama party should bring their own pajamas, toothbrushes, pillows and
blankets. But if they forget
something, they don't need to worry because the host will give them what they need.
If a pajama party is mainly for fun, a prom is no doubt a very important thing in most American
schools. A prom is a formal dance party that is held at a high school. The party is usually held near the
end of the senior year, the last year of high school, so it is often called graduation (毕业) dance.

playing on the cliffs(悬崖). I told him that I was not allowed to go near that place (Mum and Dad had
always told me it was dangerous to play there). He called me a coward. I wanted to prove to him
that I was just as brave as him, so I
agreed to go with him.
We wanted to make our way down to explore(探索) the area. So Bob started to climb down and I
followed him. Unluckily, some rocks came down after us. One of them nearly hit my head. We could not
get back up. We shouted and shouted for help, but for a long time no help came. I was really
scared. I wanted to cry. Then, we heard some sounds. Someone had heard us. A woman tied a rope
around herself while a man at the cliff top held
the rope. She made her way down to save us.
My parents were relieved(宽慰的) that I wasn't hurt, but they were angry that I had done such a
dangerous
thing. I apologized and promised that I would not do anything like that again.

（2024·海南省直辖县级单位·二模）How do we know the time? A clock, a watch or a mobile phone can
help us. However, many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries
people have developed different ways of telling the time.
About 5500 years ago, the Egyptians invented the sun clock. This was a tall stone building. Its shadow (影
子) showed the movement of the sun. So people were able to know midday. The Egyptians made a sundial about
3500 years ago. It was smaller than the sun clock and could let people know the time for half a day. On cloudy days
or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial. Water clocks were the first clocks not to
use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows (流动) from one bottle to another. When the water reaches a certain
level, it shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the
Middle East and China. But they failed to make people know the exact time.
In the 13th century, the mechanical clock was invented. This was more exact, but it was expensive to make
one. Over the next few centuries, it was developed. For example, springs (发条) were added around 1500. This
enabled people to get the correct time and allowed clocks to be smaller. In 1927, the first quartz watch was
developed. Clocks became cheaper to make. It’s also cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock. People began
depending on them more and more to run businesses, markets and so on. More recently, in 1956, came the digital
clock. And nowadays satellites send our mobile phones the time to the exact second.
There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change.
Many of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not being late for school or work.
1. According to the passage, we can’t use a ________ tell the time on a rainy day.

（2024·广东肇庆·二模）During ancient times, children didn’t have smartphones, iPads or computers to
have fun when they felt bored. Instead, they came up with interesting activities in their childhood. Have you ever
joined in these activities?
Kicking stone balls

（2024·内蒙古呼伦贝尔·三模）People often use their mouth and also some body language to talk with
each other. When we have good news, we want to talk about it with our good friends and when something bad
happens, we make it known to others soon. But do you know that some trees can also talk about news with each
other? Of course, no trees move lips and say words just as people do. It may sound strange, but some trees really try
to talk with each other in other ways.
Willows (柳树) are the best-known of these trees. When insects begin biting a willow, the tree ends out a
special smell at once. This smell tells the other willows that harmful insects are coming near. All of them quickly
make a chemical in their leaves. This chemical is bad for the insects. The insects do not like it and will fly away
soon. In this way, the willows protect themselves from the insects. The next time when you take a walk in the
woods, maybe the trees are talking to each other quietly. How magical nature is!
16 From Paragraph 1 we can know ________.
A. few people like using the body language to talk with each other

（2024·黑龙江大庆·一模）Whether from news or social articles, you may know that 5G is coming.
5G is the 5th generation (代) network. It’s a new network after 1G, 2G, 3G, 4G and it can connect everyone
and everything together. 5G networks will cover many cities in China soon. 5G means super-fast data (数据) speed,
one can download a two-hour movie for fewer than 10 seconds, and it is making our lives much easier.
5G will make self-driving cars possible. For safety, self-driving cars needs super-fast data transmission (传
输) to communicate with their nearby environment. 5G is just what makes self-driving cars achieve this. Airplanes
will become “smart” in the near future. Passengers will be able to use 5G networks in the air to order food and
drinks on the Internet.
5G will be big help for students who take online classes. Many people live in poor areas in the world where
there are no schools. But with 5G, this will change. Students all over the world will be able to see places like the
Great Wall without leaving their rooms.
It will be also easier for doctors to treat patients remotely by 5G. It means caring for patients from far away.
The facts listed above are only a part of what 5G will make possible and popular. Just as in the early days of
the Internet in the 1990s, few could see how it could change the world. The same will surely be true of 5G. With
5G, many things do not seem like dreams anymore. Now let’s get ready to say goodbye to 4G and welcome the

（2024·江苏南京·二模）Have you ever seen a poster for a product in a place you didn’t expect? Or have
you ever been surprised by a group of strangers who suddenly started singing and dancing together to advertise a
service? People in advertising call this “guerrilla marketing”. It’s a term that describes low-cost and unusual
marketing strategies (策略) that catch people off guard.
Guerrilla marketing is different from traditional marketing because it doesn’t use typical marketing platforms
like print, TV, or online advertising. It’s also a lot cheaper. It was first designed for small businesses with less
money, but these days many large companies are trying this clever and affordable strategy.
Coca-Cola is one such company. It once placed a special vending machine on a college campus. If students
bought a bottle of Coca-Cola from the machine, they got two extra bottles free of charge to give to their friends.
Sometimes, a hand came out of the machine and gave customers flowers instead of an extra drink. People loved it!
Coca-Cola filmed customers enjoying this special “happiness machine” and posted the video online. Many people
watched the video and shared it with their friends, and the company enjoyed free publicity.
IKEA—one of the world’s largest furniture companies—also gave guerrilla marketing a try. To celebrate the
30th anniversary of its most popular bookcase, IKEA decided to try something different. It teamed up with a charity

called the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation to set up the world’s largest outdoor library. The location?
On a beach! IKEA displayed its bookcases on Sydney’s Bondi Beach and filled them with over 6, 000 books.
People got to see IKEA’s bookcase in use and find something interesting to read at the same time.
1. What is the writer’s purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To describe how successful guerrilla marketing is.
B. To show why guerrilla marketing is successful.

（2024·河南郑州·一模）The color of the ocean has changed greener significantly (显著地) over the last 20
years and human-caused climate change is likely responsible, according to a new study.
“More than 56% of the world’s oceans have changed color that cannot be explained by natural variability (可
变性),” said a team of researchers, led by scientists from the UK and the US, in a statement.
According to the study, tropical (热带的) oceans close to the equator (赤道) have become greener in the past
two decades, reflecting changes in their ecosystems.
The color of the ocean comes from the materials found in its upper layers (上层). For example, a deep blue
sea will have very little life in it, and a green color means there are eco systems there, based on the plankton (浮游

生物). The plankton forms the basis of a food web which supports larger living things such as krill (磷虾), fish and
seabirds.
“It’s not clear exactly how these ecosystems are changing,” said study co-author Stephanie Dutkiewicz.
“Ocean ecosystems are finely balanced and any change in the plankton will send ripples (涟漪) across the food
chain. All changes are causing an imbalance in the natural organization of ecosystems. Such imbalance will only
get worse over time if our oceans keep heating. It will also affect the ocean’s ability to store carbon (碳), as
different plankton absorbs (吸收) different amounts of carbon,” she told CNN.
The researchers are still working to explain exactly what the changes mean now.
1. What is happening according to this study?
A. The color of the ocean is becoming greener.
B. Natural variability is leading to the changes in the ocean color.
C. The number of plankton in the ocean is gradually reducing (减少).
D. Ocean ecosystems are becoming more and more balanced.
2. What kind of animal feed on plankton directly according to this passage?
A. B.
C. D.
3. What is Paragraph 5mainly about?
A. Reason of the greener oceans.
B. Importance of amounts of carbon.
C. Process of water color change.
D. Danger of the warming oceans.
4. What causes the change of the ocean color according to the writer?
A. The ocean’s ability to store carbon.
B. Natural variability of the oceans.
C. Tropical oceans close to the equator.

（2024·河北保定·二模）Do you often ask questions? Children are known for wanting answers to many
questions, because curiosity (好奇心) is part of human nature. Books and TV shows often depend on curiosity.
People keep reading or watching because they want to find out what happens.
As we know, curiosity provides many advantages. Many of history’s greatest discoveries were made by
curious people. People wondered how things worked and how work could be done more quickly. Thanks to their
curiosity, people now know much about the world and have useful technology to help them. Even if you don’t plan
to be an inventor or researcher, curiosity can still help you in the classroom. If you develop the curiosity of
learning, classes will become more interesting. You will be good at them because you enjoy the process (过程) of
learning. Even if you’re no longer a student, curiosity will make you an able worker.
What will you do if you’re not already curious? Luckily, curiosity is a skill that can be improved. Often, the
more you learn about a subject, the more interesting it becomes. To improve your curiosity, get information from as
many sources (来源) as possible when you learn about something. At the same time, read all kinds of books, watch
or listen to speeches and ask questions. Don’t always get information in the same way. Instead, learn to understand
the facts that different people know.
Don’t assume you already know everything. Instead, search for other possibilities and opinions. Remember,
everyone knows something that you don’t know. Find out what it is, and ask about it. This lets you learn something
and makes the other people happy by letting them show off their knowledge. Let’s try to become people who are
full of curiosity.
1. What makes children ask many questions?
A. They are curious. B. They know too little.
C. They aren’t so clever. D. They don’t read books.
2. What does the writer tell us in Paragraph 2?
A. Every student can be an inventor. B. People need curiosity to get a job.
C. Curiosity helps us discover the world. D. Students should enjoy the learning process.

（2024·湖北武汉·模拟预测）Well, let’s continue from where we stopped last time. I’m sure you’re well
aware of the dangers lurking (潜伏) on the World Wide Web. And whether it’s for schoolwork, entertainment, or
just socializing with friends, the Internet will surely be a major part of your child’s life. So, it’s important to secure
(使安全) their online stays.
It’s not an easy task, but maintaining open communication is key. Let them know they can share their online
activities with you. Discuss what interests them online and learn about popular websites and apps from them. This
will help you understand and identify (识别) potential risks.
Next, monitor without spying (探明). Most kids learn to understand boundaries, like respecting others’
personal space, or not opening the cookie jar without asking. Internet use is no different. It’s helpful to set clear
rules for them, like which websites they can visit, which apps they can use, and what they can share online. Remind
them that if they feel uneasy with anything that occurs online, they need to alert (使警觉) an adult at once.
How you handle your kids’ Internet usage will depend largely on their age. There are websites and browsing
tools designed for younger children, such as YouTube Kids, which aims to provide a safe online experience for
children. Older kids may be allowed more freedom since they want to socialize and need to use the Internet for
information-gathering. But you can set boundaries that feel right for you. Just limit ( 限 制 ) their access
appropriately.
Allowing your children to make good decisions online teaches them responsibility, shows that you trust
them, and reminds them that rules may be tightened if they disobey them. Stay tuned.

For 16-year-old Ma Yifei, the violin performance of the Beijing 2022 theme song, Snowflake, was her best
present for Paralympians (残奥会运动员) all over the world. Even though snowflakes are related to winter, she let
others feel warmth, hope and light through her performance. “I’m also disabled and I want to do something for
them with my music,” said Ma.
Ma went blind at the age of two because of an illness. She became interested in music when she was young.
She started to learn to play the piano at five and the violin at nine, experiencing the “colorful” music through sound
and emotion.
Ma’s mother Ha Chunyan, a former music teacher in a primary school, helped her memorize the music score
(乐谱) before she played the piano. Ma could not see the keys and always played the wrong notes. It took her
thousands of tries to play a piece correctly.
Learning the violin was more challenging. Ma needed to feel the teacher’s hands, arms and back to learn the
movements, and listen to the strings (弦) over and over again to feel the muscles (肌肉) herself.
“After three years of learning, she still could not make any sound except terrible noises,” said Ha, who
advised her daughter to give up the violin. But Ma said, “As I’ve been practicing so long, it’s hard to give up. I
believe I will play better if I persist in practicing.”
In 2018, Ma got a chance to follow Sheng Yuan and Cao Yuhan, famous musicians from the Central
Conservatory of Music, to study music in Beijing. She left her home in Ningxia to follow her musical dream,
though she knew there would be more challenges ahead.
Ma expressed her excitement about performing at the big event. “All my hard work has paid off. I’m proud
of standing on the stage today.”
1. How does the writer describe Ma’s difficulties in learning the violin?
A. By offering advice. B. By giving examples.
C. By listing numbers. D. By questioning.
2. What does the underlined phrase “persist in” probably mean in Paragraph 5?
A. Take pride in. B. Look forward to. C. Keep on. D. End up.
3. Which of the following is TRUE about Ma?
A. Ma began to learn to play the piano at nine.
B. In 2018, Ma got a chance to study music in Beijing
C. It was more challenging for Ma to learn the piano than the violin.
D. Ma could memorize the music score by herself before playing the piano.
