204040. (2023•西安中学•高一下期末)     The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during Field Day in elementary school.
   Small for my age,and more of a bookworm than a sports enthusiast,I had suffered that special humiliation of being picked last for various gym teams.But Field Day,which focused on individual skills,was different.
   In the softball throw event,I got my first taste of sporting victory.Credit goes to the example of my first coach,my father.He lifted weights every morning at home.He bought us all baseball gloves and hats,and in the warm months,we spent hours playing catch.With the fall coming,our backyard football games began with passing practice.
   Once I got to sixth grade and switched to private school,our entire student body was assigned to either the red team or the white team.Throughout the year,we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points.I eventually became president of The Committee of Games,accelerating my competitive fever.However,in girls' sports games at my school,I was no star.I also played on the field hockey team and the basketball team.
   School sports did not bleed into the weekends,as they do today,but at home,playing tennis,skating,skiing and biking were simply normal things we did.
   During downtime,magazines were also quite popular for us teens.These regularly featured articles on physical exercise.Somehow,my college roommate and I took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) exercises every day,a practice that continued into my marriage,when we had no spare funds to use to join a gym.
   So,though it shocks some of our friends,that early foundation evolved (进化) in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus,considered essential even on vacation.
   I still love reading and the arts,too.As far as I'm concerned,life is richest with my feet in both worlds.

(1)What does the underlined word "humiliation" mean in paragraph 2?        
A.shame.
B.desire.
C.responsibility.
D.disappointment.
(2)What did the author owe her victory in the softball throw event to?        
A.Her advanced sportswear.
B.Her confidence in her sports ability.
C.The sports talent passed on in her family.
D.The guidance and training offered by her father.
(3)Which word best describes the author's relationship with sports as an adult?        
A.Cooperative.
B.Uneasy.
C.Inseparable.
D.Casual.
(4)Which can be a suitable title for the text?        
A.My Inborn Interest in Sports
B.The Benefits of Physical Exercise
C.My Childhood Memories of Father
D.My Passion for Sports and Fitness

212703. (2024•铁一中学•高二上期中)     As a boy,John Kerr wanted to be a fireman or a park ranger (护林员).Looking back on that childhood dream,he says, "This is exactly what I was longing for."
    Instead,after graduation,he spent four decades at WGBH in Boston,one of the public broadcasting stations.He retired in 2005 at the age of 65 without any particular post-career goal in mind.After several aimless weeks,he decided to drive his camper to visit family in Jackson Hole,Wyoming.
    During the trip,he stopped at the Yellowstone Park Foundation,which raises funds for Yellowstone,America's first national park.As it happened,the foundation was hiring people to educate park guests on wolves.Later,Kerr signed up for the position as an intern (实习生).
    Kerr stood out in the intern crowd —most of them were college and even high school students.But,in a sense,he had been prepared for this since his youth.His outdoor adventures with his grandfather had given him a love to nature,and as an adult,he had helped out at the local fire department on medical calls.
    He also had something else.There are 31 million Americans between the ages of 44 and 70 —some retired and looking for a third act,some looking for a more satisfying career —searching for something where they feel as if they are making a contribution,doing something to make their neighbourhood,their country,their world just a little bit better.Kerr also had that deep urge to do something more.
    From his internship,he moved up to ranger,educating park visitors,ensuring safe encounters between guests and animals,and responding to medical emergencies.He values his stewardship (管理工作) of what he describes as one of the most beautiful places on Earth,and appreciates the moments when he treats a visitor to an up-close look at one of the park's wolves or bears through his telescope.
    "These are rich and all-too-rare moments," recalls Kerr. "I never forget them."

    My dad and I spent the last holiday searching for her in the park nearby.Dad was the family's "realist," which meant he spent time trying to prepare me for the worst. "She's either been hit by a car or been taken in by someone",he said.I rolled my eyes.He could do with a little more faith!

204164. (2023•周至四中•高二下期末)     Eight months after my father died,I saw some letters on top of my mother's coffee table.They were tied with a silk ribbon and addressed to her decades ago in my father's neat handwriting.I couldn't imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.
    "Would you like me to read them to you?"Mom asked with a hint of a smile.
    The letters were written in 1974 over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved,sick mother,leaving his wife and me,their newborn daughter,behind in Toronto,the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956.
    Growing up,my father was my hero and protector,but he was also a man of few words,part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life.
    I sat back while my mother read his letters to me,and thought,"Who is this guy?"My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say.He referred to my mother as "my dearest"and "my companion"who was always in his thoughts.In each letter,he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared,"You and your mother are my life."
    As children,we assume we know everything about our parents.But,sometimes,we find that they were and are people with various facets.
    My father was proud and stubborn,and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard.During their 58-year marriage,their stubbornness often led to conflict .So it was bittersweet to hear my father's youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful(留恋的) tone.I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time.After she finished reading the letters,I held them in my hands and examined them like they were fossils.Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts,he had filled the front and back of several pages.
    These letters are only part of their correspondence.My mother wrote back to my father.One day she will read those letters to me,which she's assured me.And just as with my father,they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.

(1)What kind of person did the author think her father was?        
A.Violent.
B.Optimistic.
C.Sensitive.
D.Reserved.
(2)What can we know about the author's parents according to the text?        
A.Her father worked in Italy.
B.They didn't get on well with each other.
C.They were identical in terms of stubbornness.
D.Her mother didn't reply to the letters from her father.
(3)What does the underlined word"facets"in Paragraph 6 most probably mean?        
A.Divisions.
B.Dimensions.
C.Goals.
D.Interests.
(4)Which of the following is the best title for the text?

212781. (2025•西安一中•高二下期中)     I talked with a friend recently who is overwhelmed by her workload.She asked me what tips I might have for her around time management.That question surprised me.I've never thought of myself as someone with great time management skills,mostly because I tend to avoid rigid productivity systems,believing that they limit creativity.
    It wasn't until we parted that it hit me.I don't focus on time management,but on energy management.
    Somewhere along the way,I learned that the time something takes is secondary to energy.I would argue that you could work six hours on a task that gives you energy and feel fresh and ready for what's next.Or,you could spend three hours on a tiring and unfulfilling task and need to check out for the rest of the day.
    I'm a fan of making lists and getting things crossed off the list.But maturity has taught me that satisfaction comes not from crossing things off the list,but intentionality about what goes on the list.If everything on the list is an energy waste,how will it feel to get those things done?
    Russ Hudson,a teacher,said something recently that blew the doors open for me on this concept.He spoke about the energy of frustration (懊恼),but it could be applied to any negative emotion.He said that frustration is an addictive emotion because it causes us to be stressed.Hudson said, "Life force gets trapped in frustration." So that extensive energy I spend being frustrated is trapping life force energy that might go to more useful,productive,creative pursuits.
    In a world that often focuses on getting the most out of every hour,it's about time we should change our focus.
    We should pay attention to how our energy changes throughout the day,and learn how to create,use,and save it.It's not hard to start thinking this way.We just need to be more aware of ourselves and make careful choices.

(1)Why is the author's friend mentioned in paragraph 1?       
A.To lead in the topic.
B.To clarify a definition.
C.To present a common phenomenon.
D.To share a personal experience.
(2)What is the author's core argument about productivity?       
A.Completing tasks quickly guarantees satisfaction.
B.Making task lists lays the foundation for achievements.
C.Energy management matters more than time management.
D.Strict time management systems are essential for success.
(3)According to Russ Hudson,why is frustration problematic?       
A.It wastes time that could be used for work.
B.It makes people ignorant of their limitations.
C.It leaves people trapped in their comfort zone.
D.It stops people pursuing something meaningful in life.
(4)What might be talked about following the last paragraph?       
A.Ways to reduce negative emotions in work.
B.The relationship between energy and creativity.
C.The disadvantages of focusing on time management.
D.Examples of managing energy through awareness and choices.

212665. (2025•临潼区•高二下期中)     During the last few weeks,I spent numerous hot nights standing beside or on my bed,trying to catch mosquitoes in my room.After my friend kept hearing about my nightly adventures,he showed up with a gift one morning:a mosquito net.It was huge,white and held the promise of a good night's sleep.
    I asked my father for instructions to hang it up,which he emailed in great detail—thinking I'd be able to turn the screw on which to hang the net into the ceiling.That didn't quite work out.
    Luckily,a plumber(水电工) happened to come to my house that day.After examining the net and my ceiling,he assessed it wasn't going to happen by hand. "You' ll need an electric drill." Then I showed him how I could borrow a drill on an app that lets us borrow things we need from your neighbors and received three responses from people living nearby within minutes,saying they' d happily lend out theirs.One of them turned out to be a friend whose house is only 200 meters away,and the device could be picked up at his place in the evening.
    Back at home,I started drilling but seemed to be unable to get through the ceiling.My dad got on speakerphone and listened to what it sounded like.After three minutes,he told me to stop.I might be hitting iron and the last thing I wanted to do was to mess up the drill."We' ll do it after I come back next week," he said. "Just be patient."
    Just then I heard someone parking their car outside my house.I walked up and asked for help.To my surprise,they agreed immediately.While his girlfriend and I looked at the man in admiration,he got through the ceiling within 20 seconds.The mosquito net was finally up within a minute.

201986. (2023•新城区•二模) Kala has deep ties to her Hawaiian roots.Her ancestors navigated(航行)the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars,the sun,the currents and the wind.It's not that she does it in a canoe without technology,but rather uses the natural technology around her.It's called Way finding,and was taught to her by her father.
   "My father was my foundation,my rock."she says of her first voyage with him from Oahu to Lahaina in a traditional canoe.He taught her how to read the stars,the ocean swells and how to use them to hold the course."Over 200 stars have specific names and purposes when you are Way finding.You have to look at each and determine if they are rising or setting.You know this star and the direction it represents.If you can do that,you can use it as a tool to orient(确定方向)."Kala added.
   Kala Tanaka sailed the canoe in the ocean for up to three weeks.During the day,Kala used the sun until it hit a certain height.When she got closer to land,she looked for certain species of land birds and clouds that indicated there was land below.When Kala sailed she felt"I feel very connected to the crew and the canoe.We're a family."The longer voyage required Kala to spend hours studying the day and the night skies.It was demanding physical work.But it also had its moments of awe.For Kala,the beauty was in tying together the past and the present to enjoy the moment.So when she was not sailing,she was teaching Way finding skills to school-aged children in hopes of preserving the skills her ancestors relied on.
   It's easy to be lost in the immediacy of the technology of our day,to be consumed by screens and miss the nature that unfolds around us.But if we will take the time to look up,to see the stars and the sun,the way the clouds move,the miracle of life beneath and above us,we will discover something deep inside us,something that will always lead to happiness.

202747. (2020•西安中学•一模) When I was a child growing up in Ohio,the butterflies would sometimes pass through on their way to Mexico.And it was awesome to see football fields full of them - and I wanted to revisit that on a larger scale.I knew I had to go to see the migration in Mexico.
   But I was on a budget.I didn't want to rent a car in Mexico or take a bus to Valle de Bravo,the starting point for most butterfly adventures,so I called the guys at the Muddy Boot,travel experts in Mexico who can make almost anything happen at a reasonable rate.
   And so,on January 2,I found myself in the Muddy Boot van (货车),being driven two hours from Mexico City to Valle de Bravo,a lovely town on a volcanic lake which is a central point for the butterfly journeys.I booked a two-night stay at the Hotel Rodavento,an all eco-friendly hotel with individual wooden houses spread throughout the forest and around a lake.
   The first sanctuary (保护区) I visited was Piedra Herrada,a popular destination,as it is only 40 minutes away from Valle de Bravo.The climb up is tiring.It is advisable to hire a horse.But the horse cannot take you all the way,and there is some hiking in thin air,so you must be patient,drink a lot of water,and be in reasonably good shape.
   The walk is more than worth it,though.As I struggled to catch my breath,I looked up and lost my breath again.At first glance,the trees had turned into different shapes,but on closer inspection,every inch of them was covered with butterflies.
   A few flew through the air (Most of them were not warm enough).As the sun rose,they began to come alive.Soon the air was filled with flying butterflies,transforming the forest into something magical and straight out of a fairy tale.

A.She couldn't afford to rent a car.

205153. (2022•西安八十九中•高一下期末) Richard Turere walks through his family's farm just outside Nairobi National Park in Kenya.Goats,cows,and sheep eat grass peacefully on the farm while in the park nearby,lions wander leisurcly,living in peace with the livestock (家畜). An extraordinary picture! How do livestock manage to live safely near these huge lions?It' s all due to this young man's brilliant invention-Lion Lights.
   Livestock is his family' s entire livelihood--which is why whenever lions attacked their goats,sheep,or cattle,it was disastrous.There seemed to be no good solution to the problem until Richard began working on it.After a lion killed his family's only bull,Richard started experimenting with ways to scare off the lions.His first two attempts--fire and then a scarecrow--were unsuccessful.But one night when he was walking around with a flashlight,he noticed that lions stayed away.That's when he realized:these big cats were afraid of moving lights!
   Then Richard--who'd taken apart and studied machines since he was very small—began experimenting.Despite his lack of any formal training in electrical engineering,he fitted a system of flashing LED lights on poles around the farm.The flashing lights,which he made from vehicle indicator flashers,car batteries,and a solar panel,tricked the lions into thinking the grounds were guarded,keeping the lions away.
   The word got out about the brilliant "lion-lights boy".Soon Richard was fixing the Lion Lights system for neighbors.Later,his invention won him a scholarship to Kenya's well-known Brookhouse International School.And when Richard was 13,he was invited to California to speak about his invention at a TED conference.These days,Richard still lives on his family's farm,and fixes the Lion Lights system for people all over Kenya,which functions efficiently.He dreams of becoming an airplane engineer and pilot,but he also works to arouse people's awareness about the need to support young Kenyan inventors like himself.

204621. (2023•高新一中•高二上期末) Laurie Horam never thought of himself as musical.At home,his dad never listened to music,while one of his boarding school teachers labelled him tone deaf.But last month he started to play the harmonica (口琴) on the streets of Bradford.People clapped,danced and threw coins into his case for the local food bank.Horam caught himself thinking:"How,at the age of 79,do I come to be playing music to people on the streets?"
   The question preoccupied him,because,some years ago at a family gathering,Cavin,his eldest son,said: "You know what,Dad?It can't be coincidental.We must have got our musical abilities from you." Horam has three sons and they cover a range of instruments.He was surprised. "There can't be music in me,because I can' play!" he said.

   They went to a session at their local pub.Gavin played the guitar and Horam sat in the corner with his harmonica,trying to make a sound that no one would hear.After six months,he was invited into the group.He discovered a talent for improvisation (即兴表演),responding to a note within a millisecond without batting an eyelid. "I don't play by ear.I play by heart." Actually,Horam says: "My harmonica plays me—how I feel,what I am,what I've been."
