What a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous (紧张的) the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I’d been at the school for a hundred years!
The day started very early at 7:00 a.m. I had my breakfast downstairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didn’t love me, mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn’t stop laughing.
My mom dropped me off at the school gate about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde (金黄色的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving (招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.

My two daughters and I got into the car to spend our weekend in Florida. Autumn, the elder one, offered to drive. I sat next to her, and Amber sat in back. After setting out, the three of us sang to the radio at the top of our voice.
It was a great trip until the rain poured and the rain was too heavy. “I have to pull over.” Autumn said. She tried to enter the far right lane (车道) to find a place to stop, but trucks ran fast, making water onto our car. The car was out of control, then worse — it started to move left and right. Autumn fought to control it but it was too late. We ran into a truck. The girls jumped out of the car. My chest felt much pain.
“Get out, e on!” Amber cried. “I can’t.” I said. Autumn took out her cellphone. “There’s been an accident. Send an ambulance (救护车)!” Amber and Autumn pulled me out of the car and helped me lie on my back in the grassy area by the roadside. I had to calm myself and looked up. A man held a large umbrella over me and other kind faces appeared above me. A woman helped to treat a cut over Amber’s eye. Another woman came close to me and said, “No one in the truck was injured. Help was on the way.” The woman mentioned she was a nurse; the other woman who took care of Amber’s cut was an eye specialist. We couldn’t have asked for better care.
In the hospital the pain in my chest began to disappear. Later, the tests at the hospital made sure we had no serious injuries. We’d left all our troubles behind thanks to these kind people, who seemed to be angels (天使) in my eyes.

At only 18 years old Emma Raducanu completed a feat that very few could have expected. Representing (代表) the United Kingdom, she won the U.S. Open title. She beat 19-year-old Canadian Leylah Fernandez for the win with a final score of 6-4, 6-3 in the final.
Raducanu’s performance at the U.S. Open had already made history even before her win: she competed as a qualifier (资格赛球员), and was the first qualifier in either men’s or women’s tennis to even make it to the finals of a Grand Slam tournament (锦标大赛).
Raducanu was born in Toronto, Canada but moved to London when she was 2 years old. She’s been playing tennis since she was 5. Her father is Romanian and her mother is Chinese; they both work in finance. “They both come from very hard-working countries. I followed their example to work hard too,” Raducanu said.
During the 2018 Wimbledon junior competition, Raducanu made it to the girls’ quarterfinals. She began her professional career (职业生涯) in 2018 and competed in her first Grand Slam event in June 2021 with Wimbledon. She finally had to pull out during the fourth round because of breathing (呼吸) problems, but even so, by reaching the third round, she became the youngest British woman to make it that far since 2002. Before that, she’d taken more than a year off because of COVID-19 and to finish high school.
Raducanu’s becoming a star has been nothing short of amazing: She’s the youngest player to win a Grand Slam singles tournament since 2004, unseating Maria Sharapova, who won Wimbledon in 2004 at only 17 years old. She’s also the first woman player to take home a title in her second appearance at a Grand Slam.
With her U.S. Open win, she’s become a rising star of the tennis world. And she’s also achieved a lifelong dream, she said.
“It’s a dream,” she said. “I’ve always dreamed of winning a Grand Slam. You just say these things. You say, ‘I want to win a Grand Slam.’ I actually put in a lot of work, and winning a Grand Slam, I can’t believe it.”
12 What does the underlined word “feat” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Training. B. Research. C. Achievement. D. Education.
13. What did Raducanu think of her parents
A. They’re quite different. B. They’re her role models.
C. They live a very hard life. D. They force her to work hard.
14. What happened to Raducanu at 2021 Wimbledon
A. She broke the rules.
B. She had some health problems.
C. She failed to enter the third round.
D. She received unfair treatment at the finals.
15. What did Raducanu say about winning a Grand Slam
A. It was a very difficult task.
B. It depended on some luck.
C. It was her lifelong dream.
D. It happened as she expected.

Raducanu’s becoming a star has been nothing short of amazing: She’s the youngest player to win a Grand Slam singles tournament since 2004, unseating Maria Sharapova, who won Wimbledon in 2004 at only 17 years old. She’s also the first woman player to take home a title in her second appearance at a Grand Slam.
With her U.S. Open win, she’s become a rising star of the tennis world. And she’s also achieved a lifelong dream, she said.
“It’s a dream,” she said. “I’ve always dreamed of winning a Grand Slam. You just say these things. You say, ‘I want to win a Grand Slam.’ I actually put in a lot of work, and winning a Grand Slam, I can’t believe it.”
12. What does the underlined word “feat” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Training. B. Research. C. Achievement. D. Education.
13. What did Raducanu think of her parents
A They’re quite different. B. They’re her role models.
C. They live a very hard life. D. They force her to work hard.
14. What happened to Raducanu at 2021 Wimbledon
A. She broke the rules.
B. She had some health problems.
C. She failed to enter the third round.
D. She received unfair treatment at the finals.
15. What did Raducanu say about winning a Grand Slam
A. It was a very difficult task.
B. It depended on some luck.
C. It was her lifelong dream.
D. It happened as she expected.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. C

【42题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:我当时被玻利维亚的美丽所吸引。该句主语I 与谓语动词attract之间是被动关系,谓语动词应该使用被动语态,根据上下文语境可知,该句阐述过去的事实,因此,使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was attracted。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:我经常相信,看到喷泉、盐滩和不同颜色的湖泊,是开启我对世界的感觉的好机会。world属于世界上独一无二的东西,前面应该用定冠词the修饰。故填the。

45题详解】
