Smile Train is a charity (慈善团体) that helps the millions of children around the
world, who suffer from a facial defect (缺陷). The defect happens when a baby’s top lip or
mouth doesn’t form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these
babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with
it, new hope and a new beginning.
Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their
families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often
abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the
operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and
costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to
perform the operations.
A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, “Each child who has the operation is given a
second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and
be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train.
Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found
abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted (收养) by a passenger. This
lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation
and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors.
In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available.”

school and be happy…I did the operation and gave hope to the family可知，他通过微笑列

人带来了希望。由此可知推测，他觉得自己的这份工作是非常有价值的。Dangerous危
险的；Surprising令人吃惊的；Relaxing令人放松的；Valuable有价值的。故应选D。
4．推理判断题。根据短文的最后Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local
doctors. In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available.可知，经验

When it comes to shopping for clothes, my mother and I have always disagreed on
what fits me well. To me, if it zips, it fits. My mom, however, usually tells me I need a
bigger size.
When I was a teenager, I wanted to dress like my friends, but my body size made it
impossible. When mom told me something didn’t suit me, or I needed a bigger size, all I
heard was that my body was wrong.
To avoid arguments, we stopped going shopping together. This continued until I got
engaged(订婚) last year and needed to buy some clothes. When I tried on a blouse, my
mother looked at me, and I knew what was coming. “You need a bigger size,” she said.
There was no bigger size. I tried to hold back my tears(眼泪). Maybe I could buy it
alone, of course, but my mom is my favorite person to hang out with. The idea of looking for
a wedding dress without her seemed just as scary as taking her with me.
And so the day came. As I tried on a simple white dress, I saw tears in my mom’s eyes.
“You look beautiful!” she told me. Nothing could have shocked me more.
This one didn’t zip up at the back and I did actually need a bigger size, but my mother
didn’t say that. She just told me how beautiful I looked. In that moment, all the arguments in
the past ended. We didn’t buy a dress that day. We decided to see more.
A few weeks later, we found the perfect dress. We both loved it as soon as I put it on.
And during those few weeks, mom and I also found the perfect fit for our shopping
relationship.
5．What does the writer want to show in the first two paragraphs?
A．She likes the clothes with zippers while her mother doesn’t agree with her.
B．In mom’s opinion, her body is wrong and she is too fat to wear what she likes.
C．She really wants to dress like her friends, but her mom doesn’t allow her to do so.
D．She and mom always disagree on what clothes fit her because of wrong understanding.
6．How did the writer probably feel after she tried on the simple white dress?
A．Funny and surprised. B．Shocked and sorry.
C．Proud and moved. D．Excited and scary.
7．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mainly mean?
A．I couldn’t shop for a wedding dress myself because my mom disagreed.
B．I felt kind of scary when I went shopping with my mother for a wedding dress.
C．I felt like shopping for a wedding dress with mom though she thought it was scary.D．I wanted to shop for a wedding dress alone but I couldn’t stand shopping without mom.
8．Which is the besl word to describe the perfect fit for their shopping relationship?
A．Missing. B．Embarrassing, C．Understanding. D．Encouraging.
9．What’s the main idea of the text?
A．Praising makes the perfect fit for their shopping relationship.
B．Tears sure the best way to end arguments between family members.
C．Love is everything in good communication between family members.
D．Better communication requires not only love but also a more suitable way.

这篇短文讲述的是作者和妈妈在给自己买衣服这件事上，一开始总是意见不合。但后
来作者要结婚了，在买婚纱的时候，母女二人的互相理解以及对彼此的爱，促使他们
改变了他们的购物关系。
5．细节理解题。根据前两段的内容尤其短文第一句话When it comes to shopping for
clothes, my mother and I have always disagreed on what fits me well.可知，作者和她的妈
妈在什么样的衣服适合她这件事上总是有不同的意见，故应选D。
6．推理判断题。根据短文第五段As I tried on a simple white dress, I saw tears in my
mom’s eyes. “You look beautiful!” she told me. Nothing could have shocked me more.可知，
当作者试穿了一件简单的白色礼服的时候，她看到妈妈眼睛里喊着泪，夸她非常漂亮，
听到妈妈的话，作者感到非常的震惊，因为她和妈妈在挑衣服的时候总是意见不同。
再根据下文This one didn’t zip up at the back and I did actually need a bigger size, but my
mother didn’t say that.可知，其实作者的确需要更大一点尺寸的衣服，但是妈妈没有像
以前那样说出来，所以作者的心里还会为妈妈的让步感到内心的抱歉，故B选项合适。
7．细节理解题。根据划线部分的这句话The idea of looking for a wedding dress without
her seemed just as scary as taking her with me.可知，这句话本意为：在没有妈妈陪伴的
情况下去找一件婚纱的这个想法就跟带着她和我一起买一样的可怕。从这句话我们可
以看出，作者既想妈妈陪着她一起去买婚纱，但又怕和妈妈的意见不合，想要单独去买，这样的矛盾心情，故应选D。
8．推理判断题。根据文意可知，一开始作者和妈妈对于买衣服这件事总是意见不合，
但经过了买婚纱的事情之后，他们找到了最适合的购物关系。从买婚纱的那件事我们
可以看到，作者试穿的婚纱实际上需要再大一号的，但妈妈没有说，还夸作者非常的
漂亮；作者了解了妈妈的心情，最后并没有买那件婚纱，所以母女二人是达到了互相
的理解，所以他们最后买到了一件他们都喜欢的婚纱。故应选C。
9．主旨大意题。这篇短文讲述的是作者和妈妈在给自己买衣服这件事上，一开始总是
意见不合。但后来作者要结婚了，在买婚纱的时候，母女二人的互相理解以及互相的
爱，促使他们改变了他们的购物关系。通过讲述这件事，作者是想要告诉我们：爱是
家庭成员之间良好沟通的一切。故C选项最符合文意。
【点睛】
这篇短文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者如何改善了和妈妈的购物关系。文章在叙事中传
达了深深的母女之情，在理解文章的时候，要注意体会这种感情。后面的题目设置有
细节理解、推理判断和主旨大意题。记叙文的主旨大意较难概括，它不像议论文或者
说明文，在文章中会出现点明文章主旨的句子。记叙文是需要我们通过阅读作者讲述
的事，自己归纳总结出它的中心。因此第5小题这个题目，需要我们更好的去阅读理
解文章，把握作者的思想感情，结合选项作答。这篇短文通过讲述作者和妈妈购物关
系的改变，实际传达的是母女之间的互相让步、互相理解以及对彼此的爱，故C选项
最能概括文章的主旨，体现作者的思想感情，所以选C。

On 18th October 2009, Australian schoolgirl Jessica Watson set off from Sydney
Harbor on an unusual journey. At just sixteen years old, she was trying to become one of the
youngest people ever to sail (航行) around the world all by herself. Her journey on the yacht

crowd of about 75,000 people. Even the Prime Minister of Australia was there to welcome
and congratulate her.

When we look at animals, we know that they are not humans. But how do our closest
friends dogs see us? Do they know that we are humans? Or do they actually think that we are
just strange- looking dogs?
You may be surprised to know that many kinds of animals do not notice such differences
very much at all. For example, the cuckoo (布谷鸟) lays its eggs in the nest of another bird.
These birds will feed the baby cuckoos, even though they look nothing like their real babies.
This is because the birds feed in an instinctive (本能的) ways.
Other animals, it seems, will simply separate the world into animals they eat, and
animals that eat them. When it comes to dogs, though, there is no simple answer to this
question.
Sheepdogs leave their mothers when they are born. They grow up with sheep, and come
to see them as their family. For this reason, they never attack the sheep, and help protect
them, they probably think the sheep are dogs too, but we can’t be certain.
Similarly, if you keep a dog from birth, the way it sees the world will be different to a
dog that grows up with other dogs. It will probably think it is the same kind of animal as you.
This can even be true of humans. A Russian boy called Ivan Mishukov, born in 1998, was
raised by dogs for two years and came to believe that he was a dog himself.
14．What can we know in Paragraph 2?
A．The cuckoo is a stupid bird.
B．Birds are different from other animals.
C．It’s natural for birds to feed other birds’ baby.
D．Birds can’t find any differences among themselves.15．What do some animals usually see other animals as?
A．Food or enemies. B．Friends or enemies.
C．Neighbors and relatives. D．Friends and neighbors.
16．Why do sheepdogs protect the sheep?
A．They are afraid of being punished. B．They regard the sheep as their family.
C．They think of the sheep as their owners. D．They think sheep are a kind of dogs.
17．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．Dogs can give humans a lot of help.
B．Different dogs see the world similarly.
C．People should see the world from a dog’s view.
D．Environment influences how a person sees himself.
18．Which of the following is TRUE?
A．Dogs see other animals as dogs too.
B．The cuckoo prefers feeding other animals’ babies.
C．Animals don’t know they are different from others.
D．Dogs raised by humans may regard themselves as humans.
【答案】
14．C
15．A

18．D
【分析】
本文讲述了环境影响一个人如何看待自己。布谷鸟在另一只鸟的巢里下蛋。这些鸟会
喂养另一个鸟的幼年的布谷鸟。其他的动物会简单地把世界分为它们吃的动物和吃它
们的动物。而牧羊犬和绵羊一起长大，牧羊犬把它们看作是自己的家人。如果你从狗
出生就开始喂养它，它可能会认为它和你是同一种动物。人类也是如此。一个名叫伊
万·米舒科夫的俄罗斯男孩出生于1998年，他被狗养了两年，后来开始相信自己是条
狗。
14．
主旨题。第2段大意：你可能会惊讶地发现，许多动物根本没有注意到这种差异。例
如，布谷鸟在另一只鸟的巢里下蛋。这些鸟会喂养幼年的布谷鸟，即使它们看起来一
点也不像它们真正的婴儿。这是因为鸟类以本能的方式进食。可知鸟喂其他鸟的宝宝是本能；故选C。
15．
细节题。根据第3段第1句“Other animals, it seems, will simply separate the world into
animals they eat, and animals that eat them.”可知有些动物通常把其他动物看作食物或敌
人。故选A。
16．
细节题。根据第4段第2句“They grow up with sheep, and come to see them as their
family.”可知牧羊犬要保护羊是因为他们把羊当作自己的家人。故选B。
17．
主旨题。最后一段意思是：同样地，如果你从狗出生就开始喂养它，它看待世界的方
式将不同于与其他狗一起成长的狗。它可能会认为它和你是同一种动物。人类也是如
此。一个名叫伊万·米舒科夫的俄罗斯男孩出生于1998年，他被狗养了两年，后来开
始相信自己是条狗。可知环境影响一个人如何看待自己。故选D。
18．
细节题。根据第3段第1句“Other animals, it seems, will simply separate the world into
animals they eat, and animals that eat them.”可知C错误；根据第2段最后一句“This is
because the birds feed in an instinctive (本能的) ways.”可知B错误。根据最后一段第1
和2句“Similarly, if you keep a dog from birth, the way it sees the world will be different to
a dog that grows up with other dogs. It will probably think it is the same kind of animal as
you.”可知“如果你从出生起饲养一只狗，它看待世界的方式将不同于与其他狗一起
成长的狗。它可能会认为它和你是同一种动物。”可知“A.狗也把其他动物看成狗是
错误。D.人类养的狗可能把自己当成人类正确。” 故选D。

A young man came across a spring of delicious water while wandering in the desert.
The water was very sweet. He filled his leather canteen (皮革水壶)so he could bring some
back to an old man in his village who had been his teacher.
After a four-day journey, he gave the water to the old man. The old man took a deep
drink, smiled warmly and thanked his student for the sweet water. The young man returned to
his home with a happy heart.
Later, the teacher let another student taste the water. He spat it out (吐出)，saying it was
awful and sour because of the old leather canteen . "
The student asked his teacher, "Master, the water was terrible. Why did you pretend to
like it?"The teacher replied, "You only tasted the water, I tasted the gift. When my student gave
me the water, it was an act of love and kindness and nothing could be sweeter. "
I think we understand this lesson best when we receive gifts of love from young
children. Whether it's a paper boat or a drawing, the natural and proper response (回应) by is
appreciation (欣赏) and thankfulness because we appreciate the gift.
Gratitude (感激)doesn't always come naturally. Unfortunately, most children and many
adults value only the thing that is given, rather than the thought behind it .We should remind
ourselves and teach our children about the beauty of expressing gratitude. After all, gifts from
the heart are really gifts of the heart.
19．When the teacher tasted the water, it was ________. Which of the following is not true?
A．sweet B．terrible C．awful D．sour
20．What does the underlined word "spring" mean?

magazine.

感谢学生。后来，老师让另一个学生品尝，他尝出来水酸了。老师告诉学生，他认为
水很甜是因为他看到的是一种爱和善良的行为。这个故事告诉我们要欣赏别人在礼物
背后的想法，而不是只看重所给予的东西。我们应该提醒自己，也要教会孩子表达感
激之情。
19．细节理解题。根据第3和4段“…He spat it out (吐出)，saying it was awful and sour
because of the old leather canteen . "The student asked his teacher, "Master, the water was
terrible. Why did you pretend to like it?"”可知当老师尝到水的时候，它是非常讨厌的，
难喝的酸水，不是甜水。故选A。
20．
词意猜测题。根据“A young man came across a spring of delicious water while wandering
in the desert.”可知，一个年轻人在沙漠中游荡时偶然发现了一股泉水。故“spring”是

Why do many Chinese people refuse to cut their hair during the first month of the
lunar year?
This is because people believe that getting a haircut during the first lunar month is not a
good idea. Tradition says that doing so will cause your mother's brothers to die. Although it's
not true, some people still believe it.
So, after a month's wait, people usually flock to cut their hair on Dragon Head-Raising
Day —the second day of the second lunar month. It was once tradition to line up outside of
barber shops on this day.
Dragon Head-Raising Day falls on Feb 24 this year. It is an important traditional
Chinese holiday. Ancient people believed that after this day, rainfall would increase because
the rain-bringing Dragon King would wake up from his winter sleep. So that day is the start
of spring and farming.
A well-known phrase (俗语) goes, “On the second day of the second month, the dragon
lifts his head.” Besides cutting their hair, there are also other ways to celebrate this holiday.
For example, people eat food with “dragon names". People call noodles dragon's beard .
Dumplings are dragon's ears and spring rolls (春卷) are dragon's scales (龙鳞).
