二、阅读理解
In a quiet corner of the small town, Nels' family lived. Mr Hyde rented a room in their house. Mr Hyde was really knowledgeable. He not only offered Nels advice on his high-school courses but also helped him with Latin. With Mr Hyde's help, Nels became interested in learning, and his grades improved a lot.
After the children finished their schoolwork each day and Mama sat in the chair mending clothes, Mr Hyde would tell them stories of his travels and adventures. He had studied at Oxford and sailed around the world. His stories made history and geography come alive, as if they could be touched around the room. After sharing several works by Dickens, Mr Hyde introduced Shakespeare to the children. His deep and pleasant voice was just like a great actor's.
When the warm weather arrived, the children no longer asked to go out and play in the evenings. Best of all, Nels went to the street corner less and less with the neighbourhood boys, as he was eager to hear the next chapter of *Dombey and Son*.
One day, after receiving a letter, Mr Hyde told Mama that he must go. He also left a check (支票) and a great many books. Mama was delighted at the sight of the check. She immediately thought of the coat she had been dreaming of. However, just as she was daydreaming about her new coat, Uncle Bob rushed in, who just returned from the bank, "That man Hyde cheated us. He gave you an invalid check!" he shouted full of anger. "The bank told me he's taken all his money and disappeared!"
Mama was speechless for a moment. But then, she walked over to Nels, who was looking at her with a mix of shock and worry. "Nels," she said gently, "read to us from *Ivanhoe*." She took the worthless check from Uncle Bob, walked to the stove and calmly put it into the fire.
As Nels began to read, his voice filled the room. Mama sat back, listening peacefully. In that moment, it was clear that for her, the value of the knowledge shared, the love of learning grown in her children and the books left by Mr Hyde were far more important than any amount of money.

答案
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了 Mr Hyde 租住在 Nels 家，通过讲故事和教学激发了 Nels 对学习的兴趣，但后来被发现留下了一张无效支票后离开。最终，Mama 意识到知识和书籍的价值远高于金钱。
1. D 代词指代题。根据文章第二段“His stories made history and geography come alive, as if they could be touched around the room.”可推知“they”指代前文提到的“history and geography”，因为故事让这两门学科变得栩栩如生。故选 D。
2. D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“When the warm weather arrived, the children no longer asked to go out and play in the evenings... as he was eager to hear the next chapter of Dombey and Son.”可推知，孩子们更感兴趣的是听 Mr Hyde 讲故事。故选 D。
3. B 词义猜测题。根据文章第四段“Mama was delighted at the sight of the check. She immediately thought of the coat she had been dreaming of.”可知，Mama 看到支票时很高兴，她立刻想到了她梦寐以求的外套。从而可推知“delighted”意为“高兴的”，与“pleased”同义。故选 B。
4. C 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“As Nels began to read, his voice filled the room... the books left by Mr Hyde were far more important than any amount of money.”可知，当 Nels 开始朗读时，他的声音充满了房间……Mr Hyde 留下的书远比任何金钱更重要。从而可推知孩子们在 Mr Hyde 离开后仍会继续阅读。故选 C。

2. 定位第三段内容，暖季到来后孩子们不再要求晚上出门玩耍，Nels也很少和邻居男孩外出，迫切想要听海德先生讲《董贝父子》的后续章节，说明孩子们对听海德先生讲故事的兴趣远超过出门玩耍，对应选项D。
3. 定位第四段，Mama看到支票之后立刻想到了自己梦寐以求的外套，可见她此时的情绪是开心愉悦的，delighted意为“高兴的”，和选项B的pleased含义一致。
4. 结合故事最后一段的内容，海德先生离开后，Mama让Nels朗读书籍，一家人沉浸在阅读的氛围中，且Mama认为海德留下的对学习的热爱、书籍远比金钱更重要，由此可以推断出孩子们在海德先生走后会继续坚持阅读，对应选项C。
