Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2023年·成都诊断)For the past two years I have been travelling and living abroad. Home has become more of a feeling than a place. I feel at home when I am with my family in London, but I also feel at home in Italy with friends I love. Home is no longer a picture of a house with a front door and some windows. It is more complicated than that.
This is one of the reasons that celebrating the new year has become very important for me. I do not care about “New Year’s resolutions(新年计划)”—living abroad has made me constantly reconsider what kind of person I want to be and how I will live my life, so I don’t feel the need to plan for change: I live for change.
New Year’s Eve has become my time to reconnect with the friends, which makes me feel at home. Every year we try to reunite wherever we are, and remember the time when we knew each other so well that we felt like a family. It is a moment to reconnect and get to know each other again. Last year, we travelled to a cottage in Ireland where we had no Internet and no neighbours. In the middle of the countryside, away from our constantly changing lives, we were able to become like a little family again.
This year, we went to Barcelona. It was a very big change. We were surrounded by culture and life and joy. There were bars and parties. It was different, but one thing stayed very much the same—I felt at home again and we felt like a family again.
A lot of people feel that New Year’s Eve cannot live up to expectations. Ideas such as the “New Year’s kiss” and “resolutions” create a lot of pressure for people to have a night to remember, a night that will change their lives and perhaps make the next year worth living. I think those people are missing the point. Why can’t New Year be about friends?
【解题导语】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。过去两年作者在国外旅游、生活,作者经常通过和朋友们一起旅游来庆祝新年,并因此而有家的感觉。
1.What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A.Family. B.Living abroad.
C.Home. D.Staying with friends.
C 解析:代词指代题。根据第一段倒数第二句“Home is no longer a picture of a house with a front door and some windows.”可知,家不再是一幅有前门和一些窗户的房子的图画;结合画线词所在句“It is more complicated than that.”可知,该句的主语It指代前一句中的“Home”。故C项正确。
2.Why doesn’t the author care about “New Year’s resolutions”?
A.New Year’s resolutions cannot be reached.
B.His lifestyle makes him always ready for change.
C.It’s meaningless to make any big changes in life.
D.Making New Year’s resolutions creates much pressure.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“I do not care about ‘New Year’s resolutions(新年计划)’—living abroad has made me constantly reconsider what kind of person I want to be and how I will live my life, so I don’t feel the need to plan for change: I live for change.”可知,作者的生活不断变化,所以他认为没有必要在意新年计划,故B项正确。
3.What does the author try to convey through his experiences in Ireland and Barcelona?
A.Life is peaceful and enjoyable.
B.Living abroad is a happy experience.
C.Staying with friends makes one feel at home.
D.Travelling abroad enriches one’s life experience.
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段尾句“In the middle of the countryside, away from our constantly changing lives, we were able to become like a little family again.”可知,和朋友待在乡村的中心,远离不断变化的生活,作者找到了家的感觉;根据第四段尾句“It was different, but one thing stayed very much the same—I felt at home again and we felt like a family again.”可知,作者和朋友们在一起,感觉又回到了家,感觉他们像一家人。据此可知,文章中提及作者和朋友在爱尔兰和巴塞罗那的经历旨在说明和朋友待在一起能让人找到家的感觉。故C项正确。
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.New Year’s Celebration: How?
B.True Friendship: What?
C.Living Abroad: Comfortable or Complicated?
D.Change: Plan It or Make It?
A 解析:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者由于常年旅居在国外,对于庆祝新年和新年计划有着不同的思考:有朋友的地方就有家的感觉,变化着的生活不需要新年计划,故A项最适合作文章标题。
【难句分析】 I do not care about “New Year’s resolutions(新年计划)”—living abroad has made me constantly reconsider what kind of person I want to be and how I will live my life, so I don’t feel the need to plan for change: I live for change.
分析:句中what kind of person I want to be and how I will live my life为and连接的两个宾语从句,作reconsider的宾语;so I don’t feel the need to plan for change: I live for change为so引导的结果状语从句。
译文:我不在意新年计划——生活在国外让我不断重新考虑我想成为什么样的人,我将如何生活,所以我觉得没有必要为改变做计划:我为改变而活。

(2023年·安徽六校联考)I read a newspaper article about a new concept. The idea is simple, but revolutionary(革命性的): combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building. The children and the residents(住户) eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting and gardening. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading stories to the children and, if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a hug.
Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for ageing relations, and smaller flats with no room for grandparents. But the result is the same: increasing numbers of children without grandparents a
