　　（2024·河南青桐鳴高二下聯考）Harris County expands the mobile library program with an addition of the fourth Curiosity Cruiser （巡航車）.Instead of sweet music through a speaker system attached to the roof， the sides of the cruisers are decorated with cartoon images of superheroes.And the vehicles are not filled with frozen treats， but rather a collection of books， electronics and other materials that can help children learn.
　　“When kids see a cruiser coming into their community， they start running for it，” Melton， the director of the Houston-area library system， said.“They’re excited about it.They’re excited about reading and getting a book they can take home.”
　　Melton said the Curiosity Cruisers program has distributed （分發） more than 69，000 books to more than 55，000 Houston-area children， focusing on reaching low-income parts of the region where there are no nearby public libraries.Children up to age 18 can take home one book per visit while engaging with other on-site learning materials such as laptops， 3D printers and courses on robotics and other STEM （science， technology， engineering and math） disciplines.
　　The newest delivery truck， equipped and donated by the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation with financial support from local companies and other charities， will enable the mobile library program to make an additional 12 stops per month.“It is a huge deal，” Melton said of adding a fourth cruiser.“There is a great need for literary services in Harris County.Even with the efforts we’re putting forth， it’s really like a drop in the sea.So the more vehicles we can have， the more impact we can have.”
　　Julie Finck， the president of the foundation behind， said the idea was to promote reading and STEM skills in communities where there are not libraries， even in schools.
　　Three out of ten Houston children failed to meet the minimum， end-of-third-grade reading standard in the most recent statewide STAAR test， according to Finck.She also said research shows that if children aren’t reading skilfully by the end of the third grade， they are four times as likely as their peers to end up dropping out of school.
24.Why do kids get excited when they see a Curiosity Cruiser？（　　）
A.They can get a book free of charge. B.They can buy frozen treats from the cruiser.
C.They can borrow some learning materials. D.They can meet their favourite superheroes.
25.What does Melton mean in Paragraph 4？（　　）
A.What they are doing is far from enough. B.The number of library vehicles is sufficient.
C.More support is needed from the government. D.They have donated too much for the vehicles.
26.What is the main goal of the Curiosity Cruisers program？（　　）
A.To raise funds for the poor. B.To bridge the educational gap.
C.To better people’s living standards. D.To build more libraries in Houston.
27.What is the point of improving the end-of-third-graders’ reading skills？（　　）
A.Children can improve their social skills. B.It will develop children’s interest in reading.
C.It will help children prepare for their STEM. D.The dropout rate among children will decrease.

　　（2024·江蘇鎮江六校高二下月考）You’ll need to take a deep breath before hearing this news.An astonishing 93% of kids around the world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging their health， according to a new report by World Health Organization （WHO）.
　　Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543，000 kids under 5 in 2016，with more than on in four deaths of children under five-year-old being related to environmental problems.Exposure to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways， either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity （肥胖） and so on.
　　“The diseases and deaths shown by these new data should result in an urgent call to action for the global community — especially for those concerning health.” WHO stated.“Strong action to reduce exposure to air pollution offers a chance to protect the health of children.” The report stressed that health expert should communicate with families， communities and policy-makers about the serious risks of air pollution exposure.“Although more researches into how air pollution affects children’s health will continue to be valuable， there is already evidence to justify （證明……有理） strong and swift action to prevent the damage it clearly produces，”WHO added.
　　Disease caused by dirty air is more common in low and middle-income countries， especially those in Africa， Southeast Asia， and Western Pacific.Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and technologies for basic needs like cooking， heating and lighting.
　　Advised approaches to dealing with air pollution include cleaner transport， cleaner cooking and heating fuels and technologies， energy-efficient housing and urban planning， safer industrial technologies and better waste management.
28.What is the second paragraph mainly about？（　　）

D.The health problems from birth resulting from air pollution.

　　As an international body charged with the mission of keeping world peace and development， the United Nations cannot operate without financial support from its member countries.And as a firm defender of multilateralism （多邊主義） and a beneficiary of globalization， China knows how important it is to safeguard the current world order in which the UN plays an important role.China is aware how important it is that it does its bit to ensure the UN can accomplish its missions， and knows that this is a responsibility it must undertake for the benefit of all.
　　And Chinese people can take pride in the fact that the country has overtaken Japan to be the second-largest contributor to the UN regular budget.Since how much a country pays to the regular budget of the United Nations is a standard on how powerful the country is， at least financially.It is therefore natural that China’s contribution to the UN budget should rise from 2.05 per cent in 2005 to 15.25 per cent in 2021.That hike is an indicator of what the country has achieved so far.With the country’s further development， there is no doubt that its financial contribution to the UN will continue to rise.China will pay as it should.
　　However， the more money a country pays， the more responsibility it shoulders and more say it is entitled to enjoy as a major player on the world stage.But the reality is that the rights and international standing China enjoys are still disproportional （不相稱的） to what it does for the UN and its contribution to the development of the world economy.As a responsible member of the international community， China is struggling for reform of the UN and the global governance system so they are more effective and representative of the international community as a whole.
　　Although peace and development remain the themes of the times， uncertainty and instability are on the rise.With this in mind， all countries should make combined efforts to deepen understanding， increase trust and promote cooperation.China is committed to building a community with a shared future for humanity and will continue to work with the UN to realize that vision.
32.What can we learn from the first paragraph？（　　）
A.China is against multilateralism and globalization.
B.The UN needs financial help from its member countries.
C.China doesn’t agree with the UN on keeping the current world order.
D.The UN must undertake the responsibility to ensure China’s benefit.
33.What does the underlined word “hike” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？（　　）
A.Walk. B.Rise.
C.Budget. D.Contribution.
34.What can we infer from Paragraph 3？（　　）
A.If a country pays more money， it can take on less responsibility.
B.China’s contribution to world economy equals the rights it enjoys.
C.China is making great efforts to improve the situation of the UN.
D.The global governance system is very satisfying now.
35.What is the main idea of the text？（　　）
A.China is keeping world peace and development instead of the UN.
B.China contributes most to the UN regular budget.
C.China enjoys more say as a great power on the world stage.
D.China is working with the UN in search for common good.
第二節（共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）
　　閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
　　This article is my personal reflection on the benefits I get from reading history books.36.（　　） I also want to encourage others to do more of this enjoyable， rewarding activity！
Satisfy our curiosity.
37.（　　） Given time travel is not an option， if we want to explore the past， one of the best ways is to read a history book.Finding out more about a time or place which you feel a connection to but have little knowledge of can be an exciting experience.
38.（　　）
Reading history books can help people develop a sense of their place in the world.This is often the case with national history， bringing people together through a shared experience.Identity is much more than just which country you live in， and reading about history which is relevant to your life can help you build a stronger sense of self and feel confident in who you are.
Appreciate how things change.
I think that reading history — changes in the past — can help you better understand changes that are happening now or what might contribute to change in the future.39.（　　） When Julius Caesar was in his early 30s， he burst into tears on realising that while Alexander the Great had conquered the known world by 32， he himself had achieved nothing.So he dried his eyes， picked himself up， and went on to destroy the Roman Republic.
Develop our sense of truth.
Even in the best cases， history books are influenced by the circumstances of the author， and sometimes they can be highly biased （存在偏見的）.40.（　　） History books naturally encourage us to ask questions like：how might the perspective of the author influence his story？By reading a range of history books， we can become more critical readers who don’t just accept what we are told.
A.Develop a stronger sense of identity.
B.Understand the range of human experience.
C.Let’s turn to a famous example from history.
D.Exploration is an essential part of human nature.
E.One of my aims in writing it is to sort out my thoughts.
F.This is most obvious when we read two different versions of the same thing.
G.This can inspire us to think about better ways of organising our own society.

　　It was a dull， cold and cloudy Monday morning.I had planned to take a journey and visit my grandfather who lived in Tennessee.As I set out on my journey and boarded the bus whose final destination was Tennessee， joy was written all over my face.It had been quite a long time since I last visited the countryside.Though the road leading to Tennessee was rocky， the journey was interesting and fantastic.I enjoyed myself so much since I was able to take pictures of wild animals like giraffe and antelopes （羚羊） along the way.
　　After about five hours’ drive， we were finally at Tennessee.I carried my luggage and followed the other passengers.However， I realized that there were many people at the bus station who had come to meet their relatives.My grandfather had informed me that there was no need for anyone to come for me as I would easily find my way to his home.
　　I tried to talk to a few people to ask about the road leading to my grandfather’s home， but unfortunately， we couldn’t understand each other because of the language barrier.I had to make signs， pointing towards the direction where my grandfather lived to see if they could help me.However， the people I asked seemed not to understand me very well， and ended up giving me mixed directions.I felt so desperate because it was already getting late.What’s worse， the countryside had network problems， so I could not reach my grandfather over the phone.I had no option but to look for a suitable place of shelter for the night.I carefully walked through the bushes， along the road and found a tree that had a lot of thick bushes around it.I felt that this was a nice place for me to hide for the night before daybreak.
注意：1.續寫詞數應為150左右；
2.請按如下格式作答。
　　Luckily enough， before I could close my eyes， I heard the sound of a vehicle in the distance.
The couple told me that day they were on their way back home from their son’s wedding.

The film can only be seen at a new cinema inside the Science Museum.It’s showing this Sunday with performances every hour from midday onwards， with the last showing at 5 o’clock， two hours before the museum closes.
So why not take the whole family to the museum this Sunday？ There are lots to do.Children will want to head straight down to the basement where the computers are kept.I promise you they’ll come away with all sorts of exciting pictures they’ve created.Moving to the first floor， a working steam engine and a life-sized model of a spaceship are among the favourite exhibits.
Entrance to the museum is free on Sundays， but it would normally cost $3.25 to go and see the film.To get your free tickets， you should e-mail this program by midday on Friday.We’ve only got a limited number of tickets， so the earlier you e-mail us， the more likely you are to get one.
So go ahead with the writing after this song.

語篇解讀：本文是一篇應用文。文章介紹了四本有關戰爭中愛情故事的書以及每本書的特點。
21.A　細節理解題。根據War Bonds by Cindy Hval部分中的第一句可知，寫這本書的主意是作者的丈夫向作者建議的。由此可知，Cindy Hval是在丈夫的建議下寫War Bonds這本書的。
22.D　細節理解題。根據Eve of a Hundred Midnights by Bill Lascher部分中的第二句可知，他的祖母把他表弟在第二次世界大戰期間用過的打字機送給了他。由此可知，是Bill Lascher的祖母給了他一臺打字機作為禮物。
23.B　細節理解題。根據Love Stories of World War Ⅱ by Larry King部分中的第一句可知，這本書中每一個愛情故事都有它的獨特之處，但它們都有一個共同的主題：愛能戰勝一切。由此可知，Love Stories of World War Ⅱ這本書所關注的主題是“愛的力量”。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇新聞報道。哈里斯縣增加了第四輛好奇心巡航車，用于擴展移動圖書館項目。
24.A　細節理解題。根據第二段中Melton說的They’re excited about it.They’re excited about reading and getting a book they can take home.可知，孩子們看到“好奇心巡航車”會很興奮是因為他們能免費獲得一本書。
25.A　推理判斷題。根據第四段末Melton說的話可知，哈里斯縣對文學服務的需求很大，Melton認為他們付出的努力只是杯水車薪。由此可推斷出，Melton認為他們現在做得還遠遠不能滿足社區的需求。
26.B　推理判斷題。根據第五段內容可知，“好奇心巡航車”項目在沒有圖書館的社區，甚至是學校推廣閱讀和STEM技能。由此可推斷出，該項目旨在填補不同地區間的教育差距。
27.D　推理判斷題。根據最后一段最后一句可知，如果孩子們在三年級結束時還不能熟練地閱讀，那么他們最終輟學的可能性是同齡人的四倍。由此可推斷出，提高三年級學生閱讀能力的意義在于降低兒童輟學率。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了空氣污染對全球兒童健康造成的嚴重影響。
28.C　段落大意題。根據第二段中的Exposure to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways， either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity （肥胖） and so on.可知，第二段主要講述了空氣污染對兒童健康的有害影響。
29.A　推理判斷題。根據第三段末WHO補充說的內容可推出，世界衛生組織的看法是需要降低空氣污染。
30.B　細節理解題。根據第四段最后一句可知，不清潔的烹飪和取暖燃料最有可能導致家庭空氣污染。
31.B　文章出處題。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹了空氣污染對全球兒童健康造成的嚴重影響。由此可知，本文應出自報紙的“環境”版。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇議論文。文章闡述了中國在維護聯合國及當今世界秩序中所發揮的重要作用，并且中國將繼續致力于構建人類命運共同體，與聯合國一起為實現這一愿景而繼續努力。
32.B　細節理解題。根據第一段內容可知，作為一個肩負著維護世界和平與發展使命的國際機構，如果沒有各個成員國的財政支持，聯合國無法運行。
33.B　詞義猜測題。根據第二段中的It is therefore natural that China’s contribution to the UN budget should rise from 2.05 per cent in 2005 to 15.25 per cent in 2021.可知，中國對聯合國預算的貢獻率從2005年的2.05%上升到2021年的15.25%是自然的。所以第二段的hike一詞與rise意思相近，表示“上升”。
34.C　推理判斷題。根據第三段最后一句可知，作為國際社會中負責任的一個成員國，中國正在為聯合國的改革和全球治理體系而奮斗，使之更具效力，更能代表整個國際社會。由此可以推出，中國正在努力改善聯合國的狀況。
35.D　主旨大意題。通讀全文尤其是最后兩段可知，文章闡述了中國在維護聯合國及當今世界秩序中所發揮的重要作用，并且中國將繼續致力于構建人類命運共同體，與聯合國一起為實現這一愿景而繼續努力。所以本文的主旨是中國正與聯合國合作，尋求共同的利益。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了閱讀歷史書籍的幾個益處。
36.E　設空處前一句說明作者在本文中介紹了閱讀歷史書籍給他帶來的益處，設空處后一句表明了作者也想鼓勵其他人加入這項令人愉快的、有益的活動。E項（我寫它的目的之一是理清我的思路）符合語境。E項中的One of my aims與設空處后一句中的I also want to相呼應。E項中的it指代上文中的This article。
37.D　設空處位于段首，一般是對該段內容進行概括說明。該段小標題是“滿足我們的好奇心”；設空處下文指出，要想探索過去，最好的方法就是閱讀歷史書籍。D項（探索是人性的重要組成部分）符合語境。D項中的Exploration與設空處后的explore相呼應。
38.A　設空處為段落小標題。通讀設空處下面一段可知，閱讀歷史書籍可以幫助人們了解自己在這個世界中的位置。本國歷史通常能起到這樣的作用，它通過相同的經歷把人們聯系在一起。身份認同不僅僅意味著你居住在哪個國
家。閱讀與自己有關的歷史能幫你建立更強烈的自我意識，還能幫你對自己的身份充滿信心。A項（建立更強的身份認同感）可概括本段內容，與該段中的build a stronger sense of self相呼應。A項中的identity與該段中的Identity構成原詞復現。
39.C　設空處前一句指出，作者認為閱讀歷史可以幫你更好地理解正在發生的變化，也可能會幫你了解導致未來變化的因素；設空處下文講述了凱撒大帝的歷史故事。C項（讓我們以一個著名的史實為例）引出下文，符合語境。
40.F　根據設空處前一句可知，即使是在最好的情況下，歷史書也會受到作者所處環境的影響，有時這些書中可能還會存在巨大的偏見。F項（當我們閱讀關于同一事件的兩個不同版本時，這一點最為明顯）緊承上文，符合語境。F項中的This指代設空處前的內容。
第三部分
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。戰爭是殘酷的，但是戰場上的交戰雙方有時候又體現出人性中善良的一面。本文講述了在第一次世界大戰戰場上發生的一個感人故事。
41.D　根據下文中的by war可知，此處表示美麗的雪景被硝煙籠罩，雪景是白色的，用變黑表示戰爭破壞了美麗的雪景。
42.B　此處表示一邊的戰壕里有德軍。動詞hold在此處表示“容納”。
43.A　這里表示雙方交火，戰況激烈。exchange of gunshots表示“雙方互相開槍射擊”。
44.A　根據常識可知，此處表示雙方都試圖征服他們的對手。
45.C　根據上文中的A young German soldier trying to cross that no-man’s land had been shot可知，這個德國士兵被擊中，因此推斷他被困在了帶刺鐵絲網中。be caught in表示“被困在某處”。
46.D　此處表示他因痛苦持續哀號。根據上文中的He cried out in despair可知，受傷被困的士兵對自己的境地感到絕望，同時也因為疼痛而喊叫。
47.A　此處表示槍林彈雨間，那個區域所有的美國士兵都能聽到這個德國士兵在哀號。
48.A　根據下文中的he crawled out of the trench and to that German soldier 可知，聽見這個德國士兵在那里絕望又痛苦地大聲喊叫，這個美國士兵再也受不了了，爬出戰壕朝德國士兵移動。
49.C　此處表示當美國士兵意識到他在做什么時，他們停止了射擊，然后，德國士兵也停止了射擊。
50.D　根據上文中的they stopped firing， and then， so did the Germans可知，這個美國士兵要去救受傷被困的德國士兵，大家都停止了射擊，此刻戰場上一片寂靜。
51.B　根據上文中的On his stomach可推斷，美國士兵是在地上匍匐前進。
52.A　上文說德國士兵被困在帶刺鐵絲網中，由此推斷這里表示美國士兵把他從中解救出來。
53.D　此處表示他攙著那個德國士兵站起來徑直走向德國戰壕并將他放在他戰友等待的臂彎中。
54.A　根據下文中的there was a hand on his shoulder that spun （使急轉身） him around可知，當這個美國士兵做完了這一切準備回到自己的戰壕時，突然感覺到肩上有一只手使他轉過身。
55.B　此處表示當他安全回到戰壕后，他們重新開始了戰斗。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了中國制造的大型衛星天線讓非洲一些偏遠地區與世界有了更廣泛的聯系。
56.connecting　考查非謂語動詞。句子的謂語為owns，空處應用所給動詞的非謂語形式，satellite dish與connect是邏輯上的主謂關系，應用動詞-ing形式作定語。故填connecting。
57.which　考查定語從句。空處引導非限制性定語從句，先行詞是channels，指物，從句中缺少of的賓語。故填which。
58.the　考查冠詞。根據第二段中的a large Chinese-built satellite dish可知，空處表特指。故填the。
59.happens/is happening　考查動詞的時態和主謂一致。空處所在的句子是一個賓語從句，且空處是謂語部分，主句是you can know，從句與主句時態應一致，空處用一般現在時，填happens；根據從句中的時間狀語now可知，空處也可用現在進行時，根據主謂一致，填is happening。故填happens/is happening。
60.wider　考查形容詞的比較級。根據上文對中國制造的衛星天線連接到很多頻道的細節描述可知，更多的頻道會產生更廣闊的世界聯系，此處應用形容詞的比較級。故填wider。
61.with　考查固定搭配。with the aim of意為“以……為目的；旨在；帶有……目的”。故填with。
62.Previously　考查副詞。空處所在的部分是句子的狀語，應用副詞。句首單詞首字母要大寫，故填Previously。
63.relied　考查動詞的時態。空處為句子的謂語。根據who were connected的時態可知，此處也用一般過去時。故填relied。
64.Improving/To improve　考查非謂語動詞。空處所在的部分是句子的主語，應用所給動詞的非謂語形式。表示泛指或一般的抽象概念時，多用動詞-ing形式；動詞不定式作主語常表示具體的某一動作。根據語境可知，此處既可以理解為泛指“提升”這一動作，也可以理解為“提升”這一具體動作。故填Improving/To improve。
65.variety　考查詞形轉換。a variety of意為“各種；多種；各類”，此處指“各種頻道”。故填variety。
第四部分
第一節
　　I’ve read some biographies of war heroes such as Liu Hulan， Dong Cunrui， Huang Jiguang and so on.I am deeply moved by their stories.I think their personalities will benefit me.
　　A common personality the heroes had was their patriotism.They would rather sacrifice their lives to defend our motherland than give in to enemy.Inspired by them， as a student， I’m trying to do my part for my school， neighbourhood and the city I live in， preparing for my future career as a soldier.I am determined to devote myself to China from now on.
第二節
　　Luckily enough， before I could close my eyes，I heard the sound of a vehicle in the distance.I quickly ran out of the bushes， shouting and waving at the car to slow down.What a relief it was to me when the driver politely responded to my call and slowed down at the place where I was standing.The vehicle had two people inside who were very old， a man and a woman almost the same age as my grandfather.They introduced themselves and I did the same.
　　The couple told me that day they were on their way back home from their son’s wedding.I told them my dilemma， giving every inch of the misfortune that I had undergone so that they could help me out.The couple were moved by my story， and they couldn’t hesitate to offer help.The following day， they drove me up to my grandfather’s home which was only a few kilometers away， and I was so happy to reunite with my grandfather.My grandfather thanked my rescuers warmly for helping me out of the bushes.

　　War and love should never be mixed together， but when it does，
some stories are made during its experience.Here are some books about
love stories which are set in wartime.
　　War Bonds by Cindy Hval
　　The idea to write this book was suggested to the author by her
husband.It’s a compilation （匯編） of love stories that took place
during the war when men and women who made lifelong commitments
without knowing what the future would bring.Each story shares a lesson to
inspire every heart.
　　Eve of a Hundred Midnights by Bill Lascher
　　Bill Lascher had always wanted to be a reporter， and soon
discovered his cousin had lived the life he dreamed of living.A month after
his grandmother gifted him with his cousin’s typewriter used during
World War Ⅱ， he slowly uncovered the story told in this book.
　　Just as World War Ⅱ broke out， Melville and Annalee Jacoby， both
war reporters， were faced with a life-and-death decision.Having been
married for just a month， the couple had to run for their lives to escape
being caught by their enemy.
　　GI Brides： The Wartime Girls Who Crossed the Atlantic for Love
by Duncan Barrett and Nuala Calvi
　　This book tells the stories from the women in England who married
American soldiers.Each GI Bride has her own unique hopes and fears
during a time of war when their ever happy dreams are redefined （重新定
義） by war， cultural differences， countries， and an uncertain future.
　　Love Stories of World War Ⅱ by Larry King
　　Each love story in this book is unique in its own way， but they all
share a common topic： love overcomes all.Each couple interviewed
shares how they met，how they fell in love，the difficulties they faced
and how their love grew stronger leading to marriages that lasted a
lifetime.

22. Who gave Bill Lascher a typewriter as a present？（　　）
A. A reporter. B. His cousin.
C. His wife. D. His grandma.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據Eve of a Hundred Midnights by Bill
Lascher部分中的第二句可知，他的祖母把他表弟在第二次世界大
戰期間用過的打字機送給了他。由此可知，是Bill Lascher的祖母
給了他一臺打字機作為禮物。

　　（2024·河南青桐鳴高二下聯考）Harris County expands the mobile
library program with an addition of the fourth Curiosity Cruiser （巡航
車）.Instead of sweet music through a speaker system attached to the
roof， the sides of the cruisers are decorated with cartoon images of
superheroes.And the vehicles are not filled with frozen treats， but rather
a collection of books， electronics and other materials that can help
children learn.
　　“When kids see a cruiser coming into their community， they start
running for it，” Melton， the director of the Houston-area library
system， said.“They’re excited about it.They’re excited about
reading and getting a book they can take home.”
　　Melton said the Curiosity Cruisers program has distributed （分發）
more than 69，000 books to more than 55，000 Houston-area children，
focusing on reaching low-income parts of the region where there are no
nearby public libraries.Children up to age 18 can take home one book per
visit while engaging with other on-site learning materials such as laptops，
3D printers and courses on robotics and other STEM （science，
technology， engineering and math） disciplines.
　　The newest delivery truck， equipped and donated by the Barbara
Bush Houston Literacy Foundation with financial support from local
companies and other charities， will enable the mobile library program to
make an additional 12 stops per month.“It is a huge deal，” Melton
said of adding a fourth cruiser.“There is a great need for literary services
in Harris County.Even with the efforts we’re putting forth， it’s really
like a drop in the sea.So the more vehicles we can have， the more impact
we can have.”
　　Julie Finck， the president of the foundation behind， said the idea
was to promote reading and STEM skills in communities where there are
not libraries， even in schools.
　　Three out of ten Houston children failed to meet the minimum， end-
of-third-grade reading standard in the most recent statewide STAAR test，
according to Finck.She also said research shows that if children aren’t
reading skilfully by the end of the third grade， they are four times as
likely as their peers to end up dropping out of school.

航車，用于擴展移動圖書館項目。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇新聞報道。哈里斯縣增加了第四輛好奇心巡
航車，用于擴展移動圖書館項目。
24. Why do kids get excited when they see a Curiosity Cruiser？（　　）
A. They can get a book free of charge.
B. They can buy frozen treats from the cruiser.
C. They can borrow some learning materials.
D. They can meet their favourite superheroes.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第二段中Melton說的They’re
excited about it.They’re excited about reading and getting a book
they can take home.可知，孩子們看到“好奇心巡航車”會很興奮
是因為他們能免費獲得一本書。
25. What does Melton mean in Paragraph 4？（　　）
A. What they are doing is far from enough.
B. The number of library vehicles is sufficient.
C. More support is needed from the government.
D. They have donated too much for the vehicles.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第四段末Melton說的話可知，哈里
斯縣對文學服務的需求很大，Melton認為他們付出的努力只是杯
水車薪。由此可推斷出，Melton認為他們現在做得還遠遠不能滿
足社區的需求。
26. What is the main goal of the Curiosity Cruisers program？（　　）
A. To raise funds for the poor.
B. To bridge the educational gap.
C. To better people’s living standards.
D. To build more libraries in Houston.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第五段內容可知，“好奇心巡航
車”項目在沒有圖書館的社區，甚至是學校推廣閱讀和STEM技
能。由此可推斷出，該項目旨在填補不同地區間的教育差距。
27. What is the point of improving the end-of-third-graders’ reading
skills？（　　）
A. Children can improve their social skills.
B. It will develop children’s interest in reading.
C. It will help children prepare for their STEM.
D. The dropout rate among children will decrease.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據最后一段最后一句可知，如果孩子
們在三年級結束時還不能熟練地閱讀，那么他們最終輟學的可能
性是同齡人的四倍。由此可推斷出，提高三年級學生閱讀能力的
意義在于降低兒童輟學率。

　　（2024·江蘇鎮江六校高二下月考）You’ll need to take a deep
breath before hearing this news.An astonishing 93% of kids around the
world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging their
health， according to a new report by World Health Organization
（WHO）.
　　Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543，000 kids under 5 in
2016，with more than on in four deaths of children under five-year-old
being related to environmental problems.Exposure to air pollution can
damage the health of kids in a variety of ways， either causing or being
associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity
（肥胖） and so on.
　　“The diseases and deaths shown by these new data should result in
an urgent call to action for the global community — especially for those
concerning health.” WHO stated.“Strong action to reduce exposure to
air pollution offers a chance to protect the health of children.” The report
stressed that health expert should communicate with families，
communities and policy-makers about the serious risks of air pollution
exposure.“Although more researches into how air pollution affects
children’s health will continue to be valuable， there is already evidence
to justify （證明……有理） strong and swift action to prevent the
damage it clearly produces，”WHO added.
　　Disease caused by dirty air is more common in low and middle-
income countries， especially those in Africa， Southeast Asia， and
Western Pacific.Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of
exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and
technologies for basic needs like cooking， heating and lighting.
　　Advised approaches to dealing with air pollution include cleaner
transport， cleaner cooking and heating fuels and technologies， energy-
efficient housing and urban planning， safer industrial technologies and
better waste management.

　　As an international body charged with the mission of keeping world
peace and development， the United Nations cannot operate without
financial support from its member countries.And as a firm defender of
multilateralism （多邊主義） and a beneficiary of globalization， China
knows how important it is to safeguard the current world order in which
the UN plays an important role.China is aware how important it is that it
does its bit to ensure the UN can accomplish its missions， and knows that
this is a responsibility it must undertake for the benefit of all.
　　And Chinese people can take pride in the fact that the country has
overtaken Japan to be the second-largest contributor to the UN regular
budget.Since how much a country pays to the regular budget of the United
Nations is a standard on how powerful the country is， at least
financially.It is therefore natural that China’s contribution to the UN
budget should rise from 2.05 per cent in 2005 to 15.25 per cent in
2021.That hike is an indicator of what the country has achieved so
far.With the country’s further development， there is no doubt that its
financial contribution to the UN will continue to rise.China will pay as it
should.
　　However， the more money a country pays， the more responsibility
it shoulders and more say it is entitled to enjoy as a major player on the
world stage.But the reality is that the rights and international standing
China enjoys are still disproportional （不相稱的） to what it does for the
UN and its contribution to the development of the world economy.As a
responsible member of the international community， China is struggling
for reform of the UN and the global governance system so they are more
effective and representative of the international community as a whole.
　　Although peace and development remain the themes of the times，
uncertainty and instability are on the rise.With this in mind， all countries
should make combined efforts to deepen understanding， increase trust
and promote cooperation.China is committed to building a community
with a shared future for humanity and will continue to work with the UN to
realize that vision.

語篇解讀：本文是一篇議論文。文章闡述了中國在維護聯合國及當
今世界秩序中所發揮的重要作用，并且中國將繼續致力于構建人類
命運共同體，與聯合國一起為實現這一愿景而繼續努力。
32. What can we learn from the first paragraph？（　　）
A. China is against multilateralism and globalization.
B. The UN needs financial help from its member countries.
C. China doesn’t agree with the UN on keeping the current world order.
D. The UN must undertake the responsibility to ensure China’s benefit.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第一段內容可知，作為一個肩負著
維護世界和平與發展使命的國際機構，如果沒有各個成員國的財
政支持，聯合國無法運行。
33. What does the underlined word “hike” in Paragraph 2 probably
mean？（　　）
A. Walk. B. Rise.
C. Budget. D. Contribution.
解析： 　詞義猜測題。根據第二段中的It is therefore natural that
China’s contribution to the UN budget should rise from 2.05 per
cent in 2005 to 15.25 per cent in 2021.可知，中國對聯合國預算的
貢獻率從2005年的2.05%上升到2021年的15.25%是自然的。所以
第二段的hike一詞與rise意思相近，表示“上升”。
34. What can we infer from Paragraph 3？（　　）
A. If a country pays more money， it can take on less responsibility.
B. China’s contribution to world economy equals the rights it enjoys.
C. China is making great efforts to improve the situation of the UN.
D. The global governance system is very satisfying now.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第三段最后一句可知，作為國際社
會中負責任的一個成員國，中國正在為聯合國的改革和全球治理
體系而奮斗，使之更具效力，更能代表整個國際社會。由此可以
推出，中國正在努力改善聯合國的狀況。
35. What is the main idea of the text？（　　）
A. China is keeping world peace and development instead of the UN.
B. China contributes most to the UN regular budget.
C. China enjoys more say as a great power on the world stage.
D. China is working with the UN in search for common good.
解析： 　主旨大意題。通讀全文尤其是最后兩段可知，文章闡
述了中國在維護聯合國及當今世界秩序中所發揮的重要作用，并
且中國將繼續致力于構建人類命運共同體，與聯合國一起為實現
這一愿景而繼續努力。所以本文的主旨是中國正與聯合國合作，
尋求共同的利益。
第二節（共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）
　　閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選
項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
　　This article is my personal reflection on the benefits I get from
reading history books.36.（　　） I also want to encourage others to do
more of this enjoyable， rewarding activity！
Satisfy our curiosity.
37. （　　） Given time travel is not an option， if we want to explore
the past， one of the best ways is to read a history book.Finding out
more about a time or place which you feel a connection to but have
little knowledge of can be an exciting experience.
38. （　　）
Reading history books can help people develop a sense of their
place in the world.This is often the case with national history，
bringing people together through a shared experience.Identity is much
more than just which country you live in， and reading about history
which is relevant to your life can help you build a stronger sense of
self and feel confident in who you are.
Appreciate how things change.
I think that reading history — changes in the past — can help you
better understand changes that are happening now or what might
contribute to change in the future.39.（　　） When Julius Caesar
was in his early 30s， he burst into tears on realising that while
Alexander the Great had conquered the known world by 32， he
himself had achieved nothing.So he dried his eyes， picked himself
up， and went on to destroy the Roman Republic.
Develop our sense of truth.
Even in the best cases， history books are influenced by the
circumstances of the author， and sometimes they can be highly
biased （存在偏見的）.40.（　　） History books naturally
encourage us to ask questions like：how might the perspective of the
author influence his story？By reading a range of history books， we
can become more critical readers who don’t just accept what we are
told.
A. Develop a stronger sense of identity.
B. Understand the range of human experience.
C. Let’s turn to a famous example from history.
D. Exploration is an essential part of human nature.
E. One of my aims in writing it is to sort out my thoughts.
F. This is most obvious when we read two different versions of the
same thing.
G. This can inspire us to think about better ways of organising our
own society.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了閱讀歷史書籍的幾個益
處。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了閱讀歷史書籍的幾個益
處。
36. E　設空處前一句說明作者在本文中介紹了閱讀歷史書籍給他
帶來的益處，設空處后一句表明了作者也想鼓勵其他人加入這項
令人愉快的、有益的活動。E項（我寫它的目的之一是理清我的
思路）符合語境。E項中的One of my aims與設空處后一句中的I
also want to相呼應。E項中的it指代上文中的This article。
37. D　設空處位于段首，一般是對該段內容進行概括說明。
該段小標題是“滿足我們的好奇心”；設空處下文指出，要想
探索過去，最好的方法就是閱讀歷史書籍。D項（探索是人性
的重要組成部分）符合語境。D項中的Exploration與設空處后
的explore相呼應。
38. A　設空處為段落小標題。通讀設空處下面一段可知，閱讀歷
史書籍可以幫助人們了解自己在這個世界中的位置。本國歷史通
常能起到這樣的作用，它通過相同的經歷把人們聯系在一起。身
份認同不僅僅意味著你居住在哪個國家。閱讀與自己有關的歷史
能幫你建立更強烈的自我意識，還能幫你對自己的身份充滿信
心。A項（建立更強的身份認同感）可概括本段內容，與該段中
的build a stronger sense of self相呼應。A項中的identity與該段中的
Identity構成原詞復現。
39. C　設空處前一句指出，作者認為閱讀歷史可以幫你更好地理
解正在發生的變化，也可能會幫你了解導致未來變化的因素；設
空處下文講述了凱撒大帝的歷史故事。C項（讓我們以一個著名
的史實為例）引出下文，符合語境。
40. F　根據設空處前一句可知，即使是在最好的情況下，歷史書
也會受到作者所處環境的影響，有時這些書中可能還會存在巨大
的偏見。F項（當我們閱讀關于同一事件的兩個不同版本時，這一
點最為明顯）緊承上文，符合語境。F項中的This指代設空處前的
內容。

　　It was a dull， cold and cloudy Monday morning.I had planned to
take a journey and visit my grandfather who lived in Tennessee.As I set
out on my journey and boarded the bus whose final destination was
Tennessee， joy was written all over my face.It had been quite a long time
since I last visited the countryside.Though the road leading to Tennessee
was rocky， the journey was interesting and fantastic.I enjoyed myself so
much since I was able to take pictures of wild animals like giraffe and
antelopes （羚羊） along the way.
　　After about five hours’ drive， we were finally at Tennessee.I
carried my luggage and followed the other passengers.However， I
realized that there were many people at the bus station who had come to
meet their relatives.My grandfather had informed me that there was no
need for anyone to come for me as I would easily find my way to his
home.
　　I tried to talk to a few people to ask about the road leading to my
grandfather’s home， but unfortunately， we couldn’t understand each
other because of the language barrier.I had to make signs， pointing
towards the direction where my grandfather lived to see if they could help
me.However， the people I asked seemed not to understand me very
well， and ended up giving me mixed directions.I felt so desperate
because it was already getting late.What’s worse， the countryside had
network problems， so I could not reach my grandfather over the phone.I
had no option but to look for a suitable place of shelter for the night.I
carefully walked through the bushes， along the road and found a tree that
had a lot of thick bushes around it.I felt that this was a nice place for me to
hide for the night before daybreak.

參考范文：
　　Luckily enough， before I could close my eyes，I heard the sound of
a vehicle in the distance.I quickly ran out of the bushes， shouting and
waving at the car to slow down.What a relief it was to me when the driver
politely responded to my call and slowed down at the place where I was
standing.The vehicle had two people inside who were very old， a man
and a woman almost the same age as my grandfather.They introduced
themselves and I did the same.
　　The couple told me that day they were on their way back home from
their son’s wedding.I told them my dilemma， giving every inch of the
misfortune that I had undergone so that they could help me out.The couple
were moved by my story， and they couldn’t hesitate to offer help.The
following day， they drove me up to my grandfather’s home which was
only a few kilometers away， and I was so happy to reunite with my
grandfather.My grandfather thanked my rescuers warmly for helping me
out of the bushes.
