B
When many architects（建筑师）wanted to work in other countries, Liu Jiakun chose to stay in China and help build cities here. Liu is now the second Chinese to win the Pritzker Architecture Prize, the top award in architecture. What makes him special is his love for local life.
Liu's most famous project is the “West Village” in Chengdu. It has many different buildings for shops, sports and other activities—but no homes. The buildings form a circle, and inside the circle is a large space with three football fields.
Where did this idea come from? From hot pot! Liu grew up in Chengdu, where people love eating hot pot. He says his “West Village” is like a large hot pot, which can hold anything. At first, Liu didn’t say the purpose of each space. He just made spaces of different sizes for people to gather. People could decide how to use them. The block has become a popular public space for people to spend free time.
The Suzhou Museum of Imperial Kiln Brick is another of Liu's projects. When designing it, Liu mostly kept the old buildings as they were. The museum looks rather modest（朴实无华的）when you first see it. However, when you take a close look at it, you will see how cool it is.
Architect Yang Nan says Liu's works are great examples of problem-solving in architecture. Liu respects the environment and people who live in it.
()24. What makes the “West Village” popular?
A. It has shops and homes for people.
B. It has some buildings in the middle.

D. It provides spaces for different activities.

新素养 合作参与 In Paralympic Games(残奥会), many blind or nearly blind athletes race with the help of a guide. These pairs work very closely together.
Jerusa Geber is a runner who lost her sight as a teenager. When she races with her guide Garcia, he runs to her left. They each hold one end of a short rope. If they've started well, he matches her speed bit by bit, but with the opposite foot. They work so well together that Jerusa now holds the women's world record in the 100-metre race for blind or nearly blind athletes.
Since 2012, guides in the Paralympics can win medals too. But the teamwork is about more than just winning. Garcia is a runner himself. "I like being a guide," he said. "I feel more pressure(压力) at the Paralympics. I have to give 200% of myself to avoid mistakes and help my teammate do her best."
In cycling, Hannah Chadwick and her guide, Skyler Espinoza, also work closely. When they ride together, Espinoza always holds Chadwick's hand before starting. "It's a reminder(提示) that we're in this together," Espinoza said.
Chadwick and Espinoza follow the same training plan. Sometimes, when the training gets hard, Chadwick thinks of her teammate. "I'm not training just for myself," she said. "I'm training for both of us!"
People sometimes say Espinoza is making a sacrifice(牺牲) for a disabled athlete. But she doesn't see it that way. Espinoza believes that if she hadn't been a Paralympic guide, she would never have shone so much in sports. "I'm lucky that Hannah chose me to do this, just as I chose to do it with her," she said.
()27. How does Garcia help the blind athlete Jerusa Geber?
A. He walks in front of her to show the path.
B. He runs behind her and shouts directions.
C. He rides a bicycle next to her to guide the way.
D. He holds a rope, running beside her with the opposite foot.
()28. Which of the following words best describes the guides in the Paralympics?
A. Crazy.
B. Generous.
C. Brave.
D. Humorous.
()29. What's the best title for the text?
A. Winning Together
B. How to Become a Great Guide
C. Special Help for Athletes
D. The Hard Life of Paralympic Athletes
D

27. D 28. B
29. A 【解析】通读全文可知,本文主要讲述了残奥会运动员与引导员之间彼此协作的精神,如Garcia与Jerusa共创纪录、Espinoza与Hannah互相成就。因此,A项“Winning Together”精准概括主题,最适合作本文标题。

【分析】
本题为英语阅读理解题，涵盖细节理解、推理判断、主旨大意三类常见阅读题型，解题思路如下：
1. 第27题（细节理解题）：需精准定位原文中Jerusa与引导员Garcia合作的具体描述，匹配选项内容；
2. 第28题（推理判断题）：结合引导员的行为与表述，推断其核心品质；
3. 第29题（主旨大意题）：梳理全文核心内容，提炼最贴合文章主题的标题。
【解析】
27. 细节理解题：根据原文第二段“he runs to her left. They each hold one end of a short rope... he matches her speed bit by bit, but with the opposite foot”可知，Garcia与Jerusa各握短绳一端，用相反的脚跑步，对应选项D。A、B、C选项均与原文描述不符，故选D。
28. 推理判断题：原文中Garcia表示要付出200%帮助队友，Espinoza认为自己与队友互相成就，引导员为帮助残奥运动员主动付出，体现了他们的慷慨（generous）。A、C、D选项均未体现引导员的核心品质，故选B。
29. 主旨大意题：全文围绕残奥会运动员与引导员的紧密合作展开，从共创世界纪录到互相成就，核心主题是“一起赢得胜利”，A项“Winning Together”精准概括主题。B、C、D选项均偏离文章核心，故选A。
【答案】27.D 28.B 29.A
【知识点】阅读理解（细节理解题、推理判断题、主旨大意题）
【点评】本文以残奥会运动员与引导员的合作为主题，考查学生对阅读细节的定位、人物品质的推断及文章主旨的提炼能力，是初中英语常见的阅读题型。
