在天津新高考英語試卷中，閱讀理解在高考測試中占據(jù)的分量越來越重。常常聽到不少同學(xué)在考試之后抱怨：時間太緊，題目沒做完，甚至文章都看不懂等等。但是如果對新高考高中英語閱讀理解的題型和解題掌握一些技巧，會對天津考生有所幫助。
1. 先看題目設(shè)問，確定問題，做到心中有數(shù)。
記敘文的主題語境較為豐富，內(nèi)容真實有趣，貼近生活，考生要以語篇為基礎(chǔ)，進行關(guān)鍵信息的梳理，部分題型需要考生自主探究主題意義?？忌鷳?yīng)該快速閱讀短文相關(guān)問題，弄懂問的什么，確定問題之后，帶著問題進行有目的的閱讀并確定答案。這需要考生精準(zhǔn)把控關(guān)鍵詞，稍有粗心大意，就會選錯答案。如面對細節(jié)判斷題，需要以原文中某一句話或某一個短語為入手點，對細節(jié)句和短語進行深入判斷分析，并理解出題意圖，以得出最終答案。
2. 準(zhǔn)確快速地定位到原文關(guān)鍵信息句。
記敘文的設(shè)題有一定的難度，出題的順序，也是按照文章展開的順序，由前往后的順序做題即可。新高考延續(xù)了以往的出題特點和命題規(guī)律，考生需要有堅實的閱讀基礎(chǔ)，才能力保不失分。例如處理作者的觀點、態(tài)度題時，主要考查考生對作者在文章中所表露出來的觀點、感情、態(tài)度、目的、意圖的理解。需要考生能夠從文章的用詞、語氣或?qū)δ硞€細節(jié)的陳述來推斷作者的態(tài)度、觀點等。用平時精讀課文的掃讀和查讀能力，迅速匹配問題中的關(guān)鍵信息和原文中的關(guān)鍵句子，仔細閱讀含有關(guān)鍵信息的句子，就能順利完成此種類型的閱讀任務(wù)。
3. 最佳關(guān)聯(lián)，確定答案。
記敘文的文體特征明顯，要很快的確定人物、時間、地點、事件、原因、如何等關(guān)鍵信息，更好的很快地定位到原文內(nèi)容，來確定答案。根據(jù)文章關(guān)鍵信息的意思，仔細比對，仔細排查，熟練運用排除法，迅速確定答案。例如考生在處理主旨大意題時，考生應(yīng)該拿捏好文章的中心思想，有必要對段落大意進行歸納總結(jié)。如果是考查整篇文章的主旨大意，就可以把文中每段的首句串起來考慮。但若是僅考查某一段落的中心思想，則可將該段的首、尾句綜合起來考慮。注意?？碱}型答案在文章中出現(xiàn)最高頻率的位置，指導(dǎo)閱讀，幫助考生迅速找到最佳關(guān)聯(lián)選項，確定唯一正確的答案。

Passage 1（2021?天津6月卷?第41—45題）
When people ask me how I started writing, I find myself describing an urgent need that I felt to work with language. Having said that, I did not know for a long time what I was looking for. It was not until I followed this feeling to its source that I discovered I had a passion for writing. With some encouragement from my colleagues, I had one of my poems published. This bit of success, however, was the point where my problem began.
Back in 1978, I had to travel between three different campuses in the morning, teaching freshman composition. Afternoons I spent taking my daughter to her ballet and horse-riding lessons. I composed my lectures on the way, and that was all the thinking time I had. When I returned home, there was not enough of me left for writing after a full working day.
As a way out, I decided to get up two hours before my usual time. My alarm was set for 5:00 A.M. The first day I shut it off because I had placed it within arm's reach. The second day I set two clocks, one on my night table, and one out in the hallway. I had to jump out of bed and run to silence it before my family was awoken. This was when my morning writing began.
Since that first morning in 1978, I have been following the habit to this day, not making or accepting many excuses for not writing. I wrote my poems in this manner for nearly ten years before my first book was published. When I decided to write a novel, I divided my two hours: the first for poetry, the second for fiction. Well or badly, I wrote at least two pages a day. This is how my novel, The Line of the Sun. was finished. If I had waited to have the time, I would still be waiting to write my novel.
What I got out of getting up in the dark to work is the feeling that I am in control. For many people, the initial sense of urgency to create easily dies away because it requires making the tough decision: taking the time to create, stealing it from yourself if ifs the only way.

44. How did the author manage to finish her novel?
A. By sticking to writing every morning.
B. By writing when her mind was most active.
C. By drawing inspirations from classic novels.
D. By reducing her teaching hours at school.

C. A tight schedule is no excuse for lack of action.

Passage 2（2021?天津3月卷?第40—44題）
About five weeks ago, I noticed the skin of our pet lizard was growing dusty. It worried me. I reported the strange surface on the skin of the lizard to my husband and children the next morning. Seconds later, our lizard emerged from its tank with its old skin flowing behind it.
I didn’t think about it much until a morning last week when I knocked my favorite teapot off the table. It burst into hundreds of pieces. As I swept up the mess, I wondered why we had been breaking so many things over the months.
The destruction started three months ago. It was my husband’s birthday. He had just lost his job. The uncertainty was starting to wear on us, so I wanted to do something special.
“Let’s make a cake for Dad!” I cried.
My kids screamed with joy. We baked, iced and sprinkled for most of the day. Candles on the cake! Balloons on the walls! Flowers on the table!
Two hours before my husband came back home from another job interview, my daughter climbed up to grab a glass vase from a high shelf. It fell and crashed beside the cake. Tiny pieces of glass were everywhere. She sobbed loudly as I threw the cake away. My husband had banana pudding for his birthday.
Three days ago, the light in our living room suddenly went out. After several frustrating hours of unsuccessful attempts to fix it, my husband suggested watching the Michael Jordan documentary series The Last Dance.
The poignancy of Jordan retiring from his beloved basketball to play baseball and what had pushed him to make such a tough decision took me by surprise. As I watched him take off his basketball uniform and replace it with a baseball uniform, I saw him leaving behind the layer that no longer served him, just as our lizard had. Neither of them chose the moment that had transformed them. But they had to live with who they were after everything was different. Just like us. I realized that we have to learn to leave the past behind.
Humans do not shed skin as easily as other animals. The beginning of change is upsetting. The process is tiring. Damage changes us before we are ready. I see our lizard, raw and nearly new.
Jordan said that no matter how it ends, it starts with hope. With our tender, hopeful skin, that is where we begin.
40. What can we learn about the pet lizard from Paragraph 1?
A. Its tank grew dirty. B. Its old skin came off.
C. It got a skin disease. D. It went missing.
41. Why did the author’s husband have banana pudding for his birthday?

C. Pudding was his favorite dessert. D. They couldn't afford a birthday cake.
42. Why does the author mention The Last Dance in the passage?
A. To prove a theory. B. To define a concept.
C. To develop the theme. D. To provide the background.
43. The underlined part “l(fā)eaving behind the layer” in Paragraph 8 can be understood as .
A. letting go of the past B. looking for a new job
C. getting rid of a bad habit D. giving up an opportunity
44. What does the author most likely want to tell us?
A. Love of family helps us survive great hardships.
B. It’s not the end of the world if we break things.
C. We should move on no matter what happens.
D. Past experiences should be treasured.

With our tender, hopeful skin, that is where we begin.( Jordan說，不管結(jié)局如何，都是以希望開始的。用我們?nèi)崮?、充滿希望的皮膚，那是我們的起點)”可推知，作者在文章中提到The Last Dance是為了展開文章關(guān)于放手過去，重新開始的主題。故選C。

【44題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“Humans do not shed skin as easily as other animals. The beginning of change is upsetting. The process is tiring. Damage changes us before we are ready.

With our tender, hopeful skin, that is where we begin.( Jordan說，不管結(jié)局如何，都是以希望開始的。用我們?nèi)崮?、充滿希望的皮膚，那是我們的起點)”可推知，作者最有可能想告訴我們無論發(fā)生什么，我們都應(yīng)該繼續(xù)前進。故選C。
Passage 3（2020?天津7月卷?第41—45題）
“They tell me that you’d like to make a statue(塑像) of me-is that correct, Miss Vinnie Ream?”
The deep, gentle voice helped calm the nervous girl. Asking a favor of the President of the United States was no casual matter, especially for a seventeen-year-old girl.
“Yes, sir,” she replied, her dark eyes meeting his. “I wouldn’t have duo ask you, but my teacher, Mr. Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner. “
President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors-they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust(半身像)?”
Before Vinnie could say yes, the President hurried on, a shade of apology in his voice.
“Of course-I shouldn’t have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size. “
Vinnie’s face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,” she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay(粘土) figure would not exhaust my strength-and that is what I intend to do!”
The President’s eyes, brightened at her show of spirit. “Sorry, madam, I have underestimated you as I didn’t know your background.”
But his smile faded as he rubbed his beard with bony fingers, in thought. “Miss Ream,” he sighed, “I’d like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself.”
Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.”
The President seemed to consider her idea seriously. He got up and shook Vinnie’s hand warmly, “I’ve heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately, but you will hear from me soon.”
The very next day, Vinnie received an invitation from the President.
41. What gave Vinnie confidence to make her request of President Lincoln?
A. Her aggressive personality.
B. Mr. Mills’s encouraging remark.
C. President Lincoln’s gentle voice.
D. Her interest in a challenging job.
42. How did President Lincoln first respond to Vinnie’s request?
A. Pleased. B. Thrilled. C. Regretful. D. Doubtful.
43. Vinnie confirmed her ability to make a full-length statue by highlighting ______.
A. her experience from other projects
B. her innocent childhood in the country
C. the heavy labor she had done before
D. the skill she picked up in Wisconsin
44. Vinnie wanted to choose the corner near the windows to ______.
A. achieve effects of natural lighting
B. keep all her tools within easy reach
C. observe the President at a right angle
D. avoid disturbing the president’s work
45. What message does the story convey?
A. A strong-willed soul can reach his goal.
B. Experience helps to promote excellence.
C. Ups and downs make one strong.
D. Devotion requires enthusiasm.
【答案】41. B 42. D 43. C 44. D 45. A
【語篇分析】這是一篇記敘文。文章主要記敘了Vinnie Ream向林肯總統(tǒng)提出給他做一個全身雕像的請求，一開始林肯總統(tǒng)對此表示懷疑，在Vinnie的不斷努力爭取后，最終第二天Vinnie收到了林肯總統(tǒng)的邀請。
【41題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“I wouldn't have dared to ask you, but my teacher, Mr. Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner. “可知，我本來不敢問你，但我的老師Mills先生說我準(zhǔn)備好了。我打算用一種令人欽佩的方式來做這件事。由此可知，Mills先生的話給了Vinnie向林肯總統(tǒng)提出要求的底氣。故選B。
【42題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段中的“Of course- I shouldn't have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size.”可知，當(dāng)然-我不應(yīng)該問的。對于你這種身材的年輕女性來說，全身雕像太大了。由此可推知，林肯總統(tǒng)首先對Vinnie的請求表示懷疑。故選D。
【43題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段中的“I've driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay figure would not exhaust my strength-and this is what I intend to do!”可知，我趕過馬隊，提過水。做一個全身雕像不會耗盡我的力量-我還正想這樣呢！此可知，Vinnie通過強調(diào)她以前所做的繁重勞動，證實了她有能力制作一個全身雕像。故選C。
【44題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第四段中的“Miss Ream,” he sighed, “I'd like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself. “可知，總統(tǒng)提到自己沒有時間擺姿勢來讓Vinnie做雕像。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.”可知，Vinnie環(huán)顧四周，注意到了他辦公室的大小。“我干得很快，”她說。她指著靠近窗戶的那個角落，聲音柔和而自信。“如果我把我的粘土帶到這里來，每天下午工作三個小時，我就可以在你辦公的時候完成大部分的項目?！庇纱丝赏浦衔闹锌偨y(tǒng)提到自己沒有時間擺姿勢來讓Vinnie做雕像，于是Vinnie想選擇靠近窗戶的角落，是為了避免干擾總統(tǒng)的工作。故選D。
【45題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章主要記敘了Vinnie Ream向林肯總統(tǒng)提出給他做一個全身雕像的請求，一開始林肯總統(tǒng)對此表示懷疑，在Vinnie的不斷努力爭取后，最終第二天Vinnie收到了林肯總統(tǒng)的邀請。由此可推知，這個故事表達了意志堅強的人能達到目標(biāo)的思想。故選A。
Passage 4（2020?天津5月卷?第40—44題）
One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick’s life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery hours after he was born in 2011.
But after the operation, Susan burst into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn sons back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages（繃帶）.
“There were rolling hills of snow, a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom, she recalled. It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family. It was a moment I'll never forget.”

“My first reaction was, 'What is he doing? Hey, that’s kind of neat,’ ” Parry recalled. “I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone's attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.”

Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients' personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isn’t much he hasn’t drawn. Most kids want superheroes sports team logos or princesses, while babies often receive scenes with flowers trees and sea creatures During the last 30 years, Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches（傷口縫線） of more than 10, 000 children.
“During a time of stress for families, it's nice to be able to help them smile and laugh," Parry said. This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.”
For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child’s life, and except for his drawings on bandages, they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it.” he said.
He’s not ready to retire, but he's found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come.

Passage 1（2022屆天津市南開區(qū)高三下學(xué)期一模）
Yasmin, a two-year-old from Bodmin, Cornwall, the UK, was playing with a toy in a local park on Sunday when a bird grabbed it away. Her father, Matthew Blanchard, said the gull (鷗） “dived in and grabbed” the doll, named Baby, when Yasmin dropped it while walking.The gull eventually dropped the toy on the roof of a nearby school and it was rescued from there by some workers.
Mr.Blanchard said: “Yasmin was happily playing on the swings and taking her baby down the slide. There were lots of seagulls in the park, and she managed to drop the baby as she was walking up the hill.The seagull took the opportunity and dived in and grabbed it.”
Mr.Blanchard said Yasmin was “crying” as other gulls joined in, fighting for the toy. “I thought once it realised it wasn’t food it would let it go, but then all the other seagulls thought it had some food on it, so they all dive-bombed the baby dolly,” he added. One of the gulls got hold of the doll and took it up onto the roof of a nearby school, where it eventually dropped it.
“I had to get her out of the park because she was so upset,” Mr.Blanchard said. “I convinced her that somebody would be able to get it down for her another day, but I couldn’t see any way of us getting it back.” Mr.Blanchard said his daughter was so upset she talked about nothing else over the following days.
The family contacted Bodmin Town Council who sent a worker to get the doll back on Tuesday enabling a reunion between Yasmin and Baby that evening. “It was just a small gesture which meant a lot to Yasmin. She was over the moon when she got that baby back and she hasn’t let it go since.” Mr.Blanchard said.
Marie Tonkin-Couch, the council receptionist who dealt with the request, said: “The member of staff was a bit surprised when we asked them to go and get the doll, but it was an easy rescue as they just needed to climb up a ladder.” Ms Tonkin-Couch said she had not heard of a gull stealing someone’s toy before. “It was nice to be able to get it back to her when you have kids, you know how precious toys are to them. It was a happy ending.”

Passage 2（2022屆天津市河西區(qū)高三下學(xué)期一模）
It had been a long, hard, wonderful day. The two of us had walked from the sea’s edge through the length of a beautiful valley, climbed a superb mountain, travelled its narrow, rocky ridge, and now stood on its final peak, tired, happy and looking for the perfect campsite.
The experienced backpacker has a natural feeling for such things, and our eyes were drawn to a small blue circle on the map. We could not see it from where we were, but we followed our judgement and went down steeply until it came into view.
We were right. It was a calm pool, with flat grass beside it. Gently taking our packs off, we made the first of many cups of tea before putting up our tent. Later that evening, over another cup of tea and after a good meal, we sat outside the tent watching the sun set over a sea dotted with islands, towards one of which a ferry was slowly moving. It is not always so perfect, of course. On another trip, with a different companion, a thoroughly wet day had ended at a lonely farm. Depressed at the thought of camping, we had knocked and asked if we could use a barn as a shelter.
Backpacking could be defined us the art of comfortable, self-sufficient travel on foot. Everything you need is in the pack on your back, and you become emotionally as well as physically attached to it. I once left my pack hidden in some rocks while I made a long trip to a peak I particularly wanted to climb. I was away for nearly three hours and ended up running the last stretch in fear that my precious pack would not be there. It was, of course.
The speed at which the backpacker travels makes this the perfect way to see any country. You experience the landscape as a slow unfolding scene, almost in the way it was made；and you find time to stop and talk to people you meet. I’ve learned much local history from simply chatting to people I met while walking through an area. At the end of a trip, whether three days or three weeks, there’s a feeling of achievement, of having got somewhere under your own power.
41. The author and his companion knew there was a pool because ________
A. they had been told about it
B. they could see it on the map
C. they had seen it earlier in the day
D. they could see it from the top of the mountain
42. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The map. B. The mountain.
C. The pool. D. Rocky ridge.
43. How did the author and his companion feel at the end of the day?
A. They were too tired to put up their tent.
B. They wished they could have found a farm.
C. They were anxious about the coming weather.
D. They were delighted with the spot they had found.
44. What does the author mean by being “emotionally as well as physically attached to” his backpack in Paragraph 4?
A. It is more than just a practical aid.
B. He walks better when he is wearing it.
C. It is not a good idea to leave it anywhere.
D. He might die on the mountains without it.
45. According to the author, the main advantage of backpacking is that you can .
A. get fitter as you walk
B. make new friends while walking
C. find out how the landscape was made
D. gain an understanding of the area you walk through
【答案】41. B 42. C 43. D 44. A 45. D

Passage 3（2022屆天津市西青區(qū)張家窩中學(xué)高三下學(xué)期一模）
With an eye for style and a heart for the environment, 18-year-old Alexis Giger launched a do-it-yourself blog aimed at “reducing your environmental impact fashionably”.
The idea was sparked (激發(fā)) by the ecology unit in her biology class at Charlotte Latin School last year, she said, which taught her about issues like deforestation and habitat destruction. “I started thinking about what I could do to stop the wastefulness in my immediate community,” the fashion lover said.
The blog, ecouturieracg.wordpress.com, aims to make reusing thrift store (舊貨店) finds or last season’s pieces easy and fashionable while cutting down on the resources consumed by garment production, Alexis said. Through online research, she discovered that a simple cotton T-shirt takes more than 700 gallons of water to make.
“It made me realize that the fashion industry consumes huge amounts of natural resources as it relies on producing garments quickly and in large supply – many of the garments are only intended to be worn three or four times,” she said.
Alexis had a number of tools to help her get started. Her mom, Kimberly, taught her to sew when she was 5. Her grandmother taught her to crochet (鉤邊) around the same time. Alexis said she also gained technical knowledge and inspiration from her part-time job at a clothing company that creates theater wardrobes for schools and drama productions.
Prior to the blog launch, she spent several months illustrating “recycling” projects by creating photo tutorials. Though Ecouturier hasn’t been online long, she’s been getting positive feedback. “I’ve had people come up to me in the hall and say, ‘Hey, I saw your blog. I’m working on one of the projects right now,’ ” Alexis said.
She said she hasn’t bought a brand-new piece of clothing since last July, and her thrift store shopping has paid off with finds such as a $5 (31 yuan) dress she wore to homecoming.
“Taking an hour from Saturday afternoon to make something for yourself can really have an impact on the environment. A little change every day can really add up,” Alexis said.
41. What inspired Alexis to launch a do-it-yourself blog?
A. Her talent at making handicrafts.
B. Her fascination with the fashion industry.
C. Her part-time work experiences.
D. Her growing concern for the environment after taking a biology class.
42. What is the content of the blog Alexis set up?
A. It sells items made from thrift store finds.
B. It teaches people how to choose thrift store goods.
C. It encourages people to remake their clothing in a cool way.
D. It informs people of the bad effects of deforestation and habitat destruction.
43. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A. In order to promote her blog, Alexis is spending a lot of time online every day.
B. The projects on Alexis’ blog have convinced some people to try recycling clothes themselves.
C. Alexis has been dreaming of working in the fashion industry since she was a child.
D. To start the blog, Alexis learned from her mother and grandmother how to sew and crochet.
44. The underlined word “feedback” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. attitude B. advice C. response D. approach
45. Which of the following best describes Alexis?
A. Creative and responsible.
B. Smart and cooperative.
C. Independent and humorous.
D. Fashionable and amusing.
【答案】41. D 42. C 43. B 44. C 45. A

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第三段第一句話“...aims to make reusing thrift store finds or last season's pieces easy and fashionable...”可知，亞歷克西斯說，這個名為ecouturieracg.wordpress.com的博客旨在讓重復(fù)利用舊貨商店或上一季的衣服使之變得既簡單又時尚，同時減少服裝生產(chǎn)所消耗的資源。所以它鼓勵人們以一種酷的方式改造他們的衣服，故選C。
【43題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。從文中最后一段第一句可知，作者就利用周六下午一個小時，可知沒有花很長時間，故A錯誤；文中未提到C選項，故錯誤；根據(jù)文中第五段第二、三句可知，作者學(xué)鉤針之類的并不是為了開博客，故D項錯誤；從文中倒數(shù)第三段最后一句“I’ve had people come up to me in the hall and say, ‘Hey, I saw your blog. I’m working on one of the projects right now,’” Alexis said.可知Alexis博客上的項目說服了一些人自己嘗試回收衣服，有人看作者的博客并回收了衣服，故選B。
【44題詳解】
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)feedback后面引用的話語I’ve had people come up to me in the hall and say, ‘Hey, I saw your blog. I’m working on one of the projects right now,’” Alexis said.，可知，我曾經(jīng)在大廳里遇到過這樣的人，他們對我說，‘嘿，我看到你的博客了。我現(xiàn)在正在做其中一個項目。所以是一些博客瀏覽者給作者的一些反饋，故feedback是“反饋”的意思，故選C。
【45題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段With an eye for style and a heart for the environment, 18-year-old Alexis Giger launched a do-it-yourself blog aimed at “reducing your environmental impact fashionably”.可知，18歲的亞歷克西斯·吉格爾有時尚的眼光和環(huán)保的心，她創(chuàng)辦了一個diy博客，旨在“時尚地減少對環(huán)境的影響”。所以作者利用博客來宣傳舊衣改造，以此保護環(huán)境，可知作者不但有保護環(huán)境的責(zé)任心，而且還有創(chuàng)造力，故選A。

Passage 1
When Katie Stagliano grew a 40-pound cabbage, she didn’t know that she was beginning to develop a dream as well. When the 10-year-old girl from Summerville, South Carolina realized how much cabbage was in her garden, she decided to donate it to needy families by working with Fields to Families, a nonprofit organization based in South Carolina that gives the hungry access to nutritious fruits and vegetables.
Katie’s cabbage fed nearly 300 people and inspired her to learn more about childhood hunger in the United States. On discovering that more than 12 million kids in the United States go to bed hungry each night, Katie decided to take action.
Her first task was to work together with her family to expand their own garden so that they could donate more vegetables to needy families. But beyond her own backyard, she wanted to teach other children how to get involved. To grow her idea, she started the planting of a garden at her school, which also donates its fresh produce to local food agencies. Through a generous donation from Fields to Families, Katie’s school is receiving seeds and volunteer help, and Katie will get the chance to work there with a master gardener as her teacher!
Katie also designed her very own “No Hungry Children” T-shirt, which is available for purchase online. A part of the proceeds from her T-shirt sales economically supports Katie’s efforts, as well as the work of Amazing Kids, a nonprofit organization that focuses on the dreams of kids like Katie.
“I think it is important to have something to strive for,” says Katie. “By planting a garden or just some seeds in a pot you can make a difference. My cabbage alone fed 275 people. If more kids did the same, we all could be helping to make a long-time dream of no hungry people possible.”
41. What would be the best title of this passage?
A. Katie Stagliano, a girl full of dreams.

Passage 2
My mother was never truly happy in Connecticut finding the winter bitter cold and the culture provincial (偏狹的). Though she grew up in New Jersey, she moved to San Francisco in her early twenties, met and married my dad out there. After I was born, they decided to return east, closer to their own parents. But she never let go of her love for the Bay Area.
California was always part of the conversation when I was a kid. I ate meals off a map-of-the-world placemat (餐墊), and Mom taught me to identify San Francisco before I learned where Hartford was. She told us stories of perfection on a single city, fantasizing about retiring out west. My dad would play along, but his heart wasn’t in the same place.
While my mother’s status in the nonprofit world advanced, her desire to move back to her favorite place grew strong. She applied for jobs in the Bay, underwent bicoastal Skype screenings, even traveled out for a couple of interviews on a whim (心血來潮). Sometimes her cover letters disappeared, other times she made it down to the final two candidates. With each rejection, she promised to make her next job application even stronger.
This past May, I relocated from San Francisco to New York for a job. A few weeks later, Mom called me. Her pursuit had finally paid off. She’s been offered a vice president position at a public health nonprofit in Oakland. A few weeks later, she packed up her baggage and left Connecticut for good.
Our lives are more semblable than ever these days. We’re both discovering our new homes, making friends. We’re looking for a good yoga studio to join, reading the same books and chatting about the plots by text message. I emailed her photos from my trip to Burning Man and she replied with stories about her new coworkers who go every year. There’s even time for the occasional dating disaster.
Perhaps that’s the paradox (悖論) of growing older. Things will always change, and they can change immediately—my mother is proof. But an individual’s own power to create change always stays the same. Everything can change, and therefore nothing ever really changes.
Now when I’m out west for a visit, Mom meets me at a station with her big bag. We stop by the Grand Lake farmers market, picking out the freshest seasonal ingredients, before hiking up the hill to her new apartment. One of these days, I’ll actually cook her dinner.
41. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. The author spent all her childhood in California.
B. The author’s father would like to play along streets.
C. The author’s mother liked to use plates with map designs.
D. In fact, the author’s father didn’t want to live in California.
42. What can we know about the author’s mother?

Passage 3
One rainy evening I went to fill up at the gas station. A pre-teen boy approached my car with a thick hat pulled around his face. He asked me for money to help him and his mother stay in their hotel for an additional week.
He stated that if they did not come up with $25 they would be driven off that same evening.
Having worked in social services before, and being a little doubtful, I asked how come his mother hadn’t found out social services for help. The boy said that they needed to remain in their hotel for one more week until his grandmother, who lived out of town, could take them in.
I gave the boy what I had— $5. He thanked me and continued to wander the parking lot asking for help. I got my gas and drove away. A separate time some weeks before, a boy asked me for money and I told him I didn't have any though I did. The doubt in me had won out.
Yet, I thought about it, felt ashamed at my doubt and went looking for the boy to give him a dollar. But it seemed that he had disappeared into thin air. ''This time, '' I thought, ''I'll do it differently. ''
I went to my bank and withdrew an additional $20, then I returned to the gas station. The boy was still there. I observed him immediately, shyly approaching strangers who walked past him without notice. I pulled up beside a pump and waved at the boy to come over. I handed him the $20 bill.
He reached through my car window and gave me a huge hug. His hug told me all I needed to know—that finally this kid could get out of the rain, the cold and the darkening skies and go inside where it was warm.

Passage 4
One of the greatest contributors to the first Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations showing how it was used.
This was a huge task, so Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as "Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire," 50 miles from Oxford.
Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next 17 years, he became one of the staff's most valued contributors.
But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a book-lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum(精神病院)for the Criminally Insane.
Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10,000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.
In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.
Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414,825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.
41. According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary________.
A. was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary
B. included the English words invented by Murray
C. was edited by an American volunteer
D. came out before Minor died
42. How did Dr. Minor contribute to the dictionary?
A. He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.
B. He provided a great number of words and quotations.
C. He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.
D. He went to England to work with Murray.
43. Why did Dr. Minor refuse to visit Oxford?
A. He was busy writing a book
B. He was shut in an asylum.
C. He lived far from Oxford.
D. He disliked traveling.
44. Which of the following best describes Dr. Minor?
A. Considerate and optimistic.
B. Friendly and determined.
C. Unusual and scholarly.
D. Cautious and friendly.
45. What does the text mainly talk about?

B. The history of the English language.
