专题 04 阅读理解之记叙文

1.（广东汕头市 2021 届质量监测）

Shay cannot learn as other children do. When a child like Shay comes into the world, an opportunity to realize

true human nature presents itself, and it comes, in the way other people treat that child. Seeing some boys playing

baseball, Shay wondered if he could join in. His father knew it difficult, but he also understood if Shay were

allowed, it would give him a sense of belonging.

Thankfully, Shay was admitted by one boy, whose team was losing by one run (跑垒分), to play in the

outfield. Though no hits came his way, Shay was still ecstatic just to be in the game, grinning (咧着嘴笑) from ear

to ear as his father waved to him. Eventually, the potential winning came while Shay was scheduled to be next at

bat. At this juncture (关头), let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?

Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew the hit was impossible. Shay didn't even know how to

hold the bat properly. The pitcher (投手) moved in some steps to throw softly so Shay could hit it, but Shay swung

clumsily and missed. The pitcher took more steps forward to throw softly again. This time, Shay made it, hitting a

slow ground ball back to the pitcher.

The pitcher picked up the ball and could have easily thrown it to the first baseman. Shay would have been out

and that would have been the end of the game. Instead, the pitcher threw it on a high arc (弧) to right field, far

beyond the reach of the first baseman. Everyone started yelling, “Shay, run to first!” Never in his life had Shay ever

made it. He scampered (惊慌奔跑) down the baseline, wide-eyed and frightened. “Run to second!” Meanwhile, the

first baseman had the ball, who could have thrown it to the second baseman, but he also intentionally threw the ball

higher and farther over the third baseman’s head. “Run to third!” the boys from both teams were screaming, “Shay,

run home!”

That day, Shay was cheered as the hero who hit the “grand slam” (全垒打) and won the game for his team. In

the stand, a man’s face was flooded with tears.

C．Every dog has its day. D．Kindness is not a science, but an action.

Moving can be daunting – whether it’s to a new city or an entirely new country. The good news? Volunteering

can be a great way to settle into a new community, meet people, and learn valuable skills.

Kajal Patil moved to the United States from India in February 2017. Having previously volunteered for two

years as an assistant yoga teacher in her home country, Kajal was enthusiastic about volunteering and began

looking for volunteer opportunities that match her interests. She was drawn to a volunteer opportunity to review

applications on behalf of the Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative (YLAI), which aims to help Latin American

and Caribbean business to bring positive changes to their societies and contribute more fully to economic

development, prosperity and security in those places.

After connecting with the opportunity and successfully completing the application process, Kajal got to work.

Her role involved reviewing 44 in-depth applications from potential candidates across Latin America and the

Caribbean for a four-week fellowship in the U.S.. She was responsible for describing the business ideas presented

by these candidates, assessing the social impact of their businesses, and determining the strength of candidates to

carry out their plans. With almost 4,000 applicants in 2017, volunteers like Kajal were important members of the

YLAI team.

Kajal says that this volunteer opportunity super-charged her existing skills, while helping her build new ones

such as time management, business analysis, decision-making, planning, and presenting.

She is now looking for her next volunteer opportunity and reflects positively on her experience with YLAI. “A

new country brings in a lot of new experiences and volunteering helped me to settle into a new environment,” adds

Kajal. “By helping others, I felt needed in society. It promoted my confidence, and other people benefited too.

Volunteering is a great opportunity to improve yourself, others, and the whole society.”

Whether you recently moved to a new place or are looking to expand your influence on your current

community, find a volunteer opportunity to empower yourself, and others.

3.（海南省海南中学 2021 届高三模拟）

Whenever I was cautious about trying something new, my mom would always tell me one thing: you don't

know unless you try. I've been holding this belief in my entire life. It lets me explore various opportunities that I

would have missed.

Over the summer, I helped out at a preschool with the kids who needed some extra learning. At first I thought

it would be super crazy with kids running around all over the place. I thought it would be a month of pure

annoyance, but it ended up being pretty cool. They actually opened up to us, talked to us, and told us things they

needed to get off their mind. They were so joyful to be around. I found myself happy that I was helping these kids,

no longer afraid of the experience.

Again in middle school, I experienced this same belief. There were various school dances and school holiday

events. I was not very fond of going to these events, thinking that I would either be made fun of or just simply be

bored. I went to my first school dance in the 7th grade. It was a school welcoming dance. At first I really did not
