高考提能练(四十一) Module 5Ethnic Culture.阅读理解A2019南宁市摸底联考I left England for Sydney in September. It was a career move for my husband, and our 20yearold daughter was feeling adventurous and decided to come, too. However, just before leaving England, my 79yearold mother suffered a stroke (中风). Being strong and independent, she continues to live at home with the help of social services. But she couldnt look after the garden. I thought how wonderful it would be if there was an organization offering volunteer help. Friends asked me what I planned to do in Australia, and I told them I would be looking for a volunteer position with a gardening charitable organization. Imagine my surprise when I found just the organization I had been looking for Easy Care Gardening (ECG)!There are several reasons why I volunteer for ECG. Firstly, as a newcomer to Australia I meet many great people who, like me, volunteer some of their time. We cover a large age range, but all love gardens and helping others.Secondly, through working with ECG I have been lucky enough to explore Sydneys North Shore that I might not have had the opportunity to visit otherwise.Finally, there are all those wonderful people who we call “clients(客户)”， but are more like friends when we visit them often and tend their gardens. What great people I have met, and stories they have to tell the family histories, where they come from and the reasons for immigrating to Australia. I find it a privilege to have access to private gardens which, in many cases, have been the joy of their owners for many years. Each one is individual and reflects the character, needs and the history of each family. Indeed, the gardens reflect the multicultural and historical background of Sydney.体裁：记叙文题材：社会生活主题：参加园艺组织【语篇解读】本文介绍了作者移居悉尼后加入了Easy Care Gardening组织，成了一名园艺志愿者的故事，以及作者加入这个组织的原因。1Why did the author move to Sydney?AShe planned to volunteer there.BHer husband would work there.CShe was very keen on adventures.DShe had to look after her sick mother.答案与解析：B考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“It was a career move for my husband”可知，作者移居悉尼是因为她丈夫的工作变动，故选B项。2What made the author choose to be a gardening volunteer?AHer own experience.BThe tips of her friends.CThe popularity of ECG.DHer gardening skills.答案与解析：A考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“However, just before leaving England, my 79yearold mother suffered a stroke (中风). But she couldnt look after the garden.
