阅读理解A (2018·湖北重点高中联考) 体裁：说明文 话题：旅游与交通 难度：★★☆☆☆
Have you ever been to the tiny Welsh village of Hay-on-Wye, situated on the River Wye on the Welsh-English border. In the distance, it looks like any other small European town. But Hay-on-Wye has a delightful quirk that sets it apart from other small towns. It's home to 1,400 people and hundreds of thousands of books, making it the largest center for second-hand books in the entire world.(最后一句点明主旨)
You won't find a Barnes and Noble in Hay-on-Wye, but what you will find is over 30 charming, cozy second-hand bookshops rich with the smell of old books.(By the way, there's a scientific reason you love that smell.) There's a bookstore specializing in out-of-print children's books. A shop called “Murder and Mayhem” sells mainly crime and detective literature. And one outdoor bookshop, the Hay Castle Bookshop, is built around the walls of—you guessed it—a castle. How could a book lover possibly ask for anything more？(Though this is a Welsh town, it would be very easy to develop this Japanese literary habit here.)
One of the town's most unique features is its “honesty bookshops”. There are basically just bookshelves sitting out in the open, without a cashier or employee to speak of. A sign announces the prices of the books (which are often less than one U．S. dollar), and a collection box for money sits nearby. Customers are trusted to pay, on their honour. There are no security cameras or anything; just good old-fashioned trust.(书店经营理念)
Apart from being a popular tourist destination for literary fanatics throughout the entire year, Hay-on-Wye also throws a literary festival each year at the end of May. Bookworms from all over the world flock to this tiny village to hear famous writers speak, attend book signings, and, of course, stock up on reading material. And there's plenty for the kids to do (and read) too! Here, your child grows up loving to read.

阅读理解B (2018·茂名五校联考) 体裁：记叙文 话题：文学与艺术 难度：★★★☆☆
How do you get to Carnegie Hall (卡内基音乐厅)? “Practice, practice, practice” is the well-known answer. But for some inspiring young musicians from the Afghanistan National Institute of Music in Kabul, the road to the famous concert hall was more difficult.
The Afghan Youth Orchestra(AYO) is made up of young people who study at the Afghanistan National Institute of Music. It was the first orchestra created in 小学+初中+高中+努力=大学
小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 Afghanistan in 30 years.
Gulalai Norestani, 14, plays a traditional string instrument. Like many students, Gulalai became an orphan when her parents were killed during the ongoing war. Music is her salvation (救赎). “Music for me is a language of peace，” Gulalai said. “It connects people.”
Milad Yousufi, 18, is a piano student. “Music is my life，” he said. Milad also lost many of his family members during the war. When music was banned, he couldn't even touch a piano. So as a 12-year-old boy, he started painting and drawing.“I used to draw a piano，” he said. Finally, Milad was free to play a real piano.“Our dream came true，”he said.“It is everyone's dream to play in Carnegie Hall.”
And he has more dreams.“I have a dream to continue my education in America，” he explained. “I am working hard to make that happen. Then I have a dream to come back to Afghanistan and teach and serve people.”
Because of continuing limits in Afghanistan, Gulalai and Milad listen mostly to the kind of classical music they played at Carnegie Hall. But Gulalai says she's heard a bit of Jennifer Lopez and Shakira and she likes them. Milad says he has heard of Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber, but hasn't yet had a chance to listen to them.
Before Milad went onstage that night with the band of Afghan kids who had survived a war, I asked him if he had ever experienced true peace. “No, not yet，” he answered, adding, “I hope I will be able to.”
Later during the performance, as he played one of Carnegie Hall's famous grand pianos, the look of pure joy on his face convinced me that he found peace in music.

阅读理解C (2018·长沙联考) 体裁：说明文 话题：科普知识与现代技术 难度：★★★☆☆
When you're sledding or skiing, the bright light of the sun bouncing off (反射) the snow can blind you. A good pair of sunglasses will help you enjoy your outdoor sporting activities to the fullest. Your parents might also want to wear sunglasses when they're driving if there's a lot of snow on the ground.
Sunglasses have been around a long time. It wasn't until the late 1920s, though, that inexpensive, mass-produced sunglasses were introduced to the United States by Sam Foster. Foster's sunglasses became popular on the beaches of Atlantic City, New
Jersey, where he sold them under the name Foster Grant from a Woolworth store on the boardwalk.
