Ⅱ. 阅读理解 Passage 1 “You have saved my horse,” Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall have a reward.” Peter nervously ran his fingers through his brown hair. The frightened horse ran past him when he was working in the field that morning. He would have helped it whether it belonged to the queen or not. But he had to admit that getting a reward was nice. Two of the queen's men appeared. One carried a mirror. Red jewels shone on top of the mirror's silver frame. The other carried a wooden cage with a chicken inside it. “Only one reward can be yours,” the queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That's easy,” Peter said. “I'll take the chicken.” Some of the queen's men laughed. It was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice. 2 “And why did you choose the chicken?” the queen asked. “Well, I don't know much about jewels,” Peter answered. “But I do know about chickens. The chicken will provide eggs for my family for a long while.” Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice,” she said. “That mirror may look fancy. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken and bowed. “Thank you, your majesty.” “You are a smart child,” the queen added. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses. Would you like to take the job?” Peter smiled. “Thank you very much!” he said excitedly. A job at the castle paid well.

Passage 2 [2020·原创] 3 It is fantastic to go to different countries. You can see wonderful places and visit great cities. You can go to museums and markets, and meet people with different ideas and a different language. And, of course, you can eat different food, too. Sometimes the food in another country is different because it has a different taste—for example, food in India is often very spicy(辛辣的). But sometimes it is because the food itself is very different. So, what things do people eat in other countries that perhaps you don't eat in yours? Well, in Mexico, some people really like to eat grasshoppers. Do you think that's strange? Perhaps, but of course the people who eat grasshoppers don't think so, and in fact, grasshoppers are good for you. If you go to south Africa, you see that some places serve kudu—it's a kind of big antelope(羚 羊). And in some parts of the USA, you can eat rattlesnakes—some people say it tastes like chicken, but other people say it's like fish. A lot of people just say, “It's delicious!” So perhaps you are thinking, “Oh, no, please. I just want to eat chips!” Oh, yes, chips. Now they are the same in every country, right? Wrong! In many places in Britain, people eat their chips with a curry sauce(咖喱酱)! So, when you eat a meal, stop and think. Perhaps people from other countries think that your food is really strange! 5.The underlined word “yours” in Paragraph 2 refers to(指代) “ ”. ( ) A.your food B.your tastes C.your country D.your interest 6.According to Paragraph 3, what do people in Mexico think of eating grasshoppers? ( ) A.Strange. B.Good. C.Different. D.Spicy. 7.According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG? ( ) A.People go to different countries to meet different things. B.Chips are the same in every country. C.Rattlesnakes taste different by different people. D.People from other countries might think the food you eat is strange. 8.On what page of a newspaper can you probably read the passage? ( ) 4 A.Science. B.History. C.Health. D.Travel. Ⅲ.[2020·原创] 任务型阅读 下面文章中共有 5 处(第 1—5 题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E 和 F)中选出符合各段 意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。 Every year, most people set goals for themselves to read a certain number of books. But, just like most new year solutions, they are too difficult to keep. Here are some tips to help you form a better reading habit: 1. In order to create a reading habit, it's important to start off by setting a goal. For some persons, it could be reading 24 books in a year. Another person might have a goal of 12. Once you set the goal, please divided them into smaller goals. 2. In order to build your reading habit and enjoy your reading, you need to practice good reading skills, such as finding the order of events, skimming, guessing the meaning of new words, using the context and so on. 3. A basketball player can't practice if he doesn't have his ball ready. Reading is the same as any other skills. You should always have fresh reading materials nearby. Wherever you go, take a book with you. 4. It's easier to build a reading habit if you make reading part of your daily life. For example, you can join a book club. Do you have a favorite table in a coffee shop, or a quiet corner of your home where you like to relax? Then, create a reading area for yourself. Sit in a comfortable sofa, have some good tea or coffee and start your reading. 5. Tell your friends, parents or classmates what you've been reading, what you've gained or learned from the texts or books. You can also write blogs to tell more people about those and you can read the views your friends have written. A.Keep reading materials handy B.Connect reading to your everyday life 5 D.Share your reading experiences C.Get some reading strategies E.Set your reading goal F.Have a library day 6 【参考答案】 Ⅰ.1.best 2.have seen 3.what 4.surprised 5.myself 6.to hide 7.photos 8.from 9.the 10.If Ⅱ.Passage 1 [主旨大意]本文为记叙文,讲述了因为 Peter 救了皇后的马,皇后决定奖励他,她让卫士抬来了 看起来镶满宝石的镜子和一只装在木头笼子里的鸡。Peter 只能二选一。Peter 最终选择了鸡,因为它能改善 Peter 家人的生活。皇后认为他做出了明智的选择,因为实际上鸡比镜子更值钱。最终因为 Peter 的聪明,他得 到了一份为皇后照看马的工作。 1—4 ACBD Passage 2 [主旨大意]本文是一篇说明文,阐述了旅途中可以尝到不同味道的食物,并举例说明在不同的国 家同样的食物味道也可能不一样,有些国家的人还尝试着吃不同的食物,甚至连最普通的薯片味道,全世界也 是不同的。 5.C 前半句说的是 in other countries,故 C 项符合题意。 6.B 由第三段最后一句话可知,B 项正确。 7.B 由倒数第二段“Now they are the same in every country, right?
