2025年河南省南阳市初二上学期二检英语试卷

1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或者中文。

       Swimming is really popular in summer. Is it still popular in cold winter? Yes, it is in Russia. When we put on our warm clothes, 1 people in Russia are ready to swim in the icy water. Russian people like winter swimming.

       Winter swimming is a part of the Russian festival Epiphany (显现节). 2 它在一月份来临。 It is the coldest month in Russia. The temperature can be 10 degrees below zero! People dig holes in ice-covered rivers. Then, they jump in the holes and swim in the cold water. Russian people believe the water is holy. It can bring health to their bodies and clean their souls. People of all ages join winter swimming, including little kids. 3 Parents think this can help kids get stronger. Before they jump in the icy water on that day, 4 the swimmers need to do a lot of preparations. Some people may start to take daily cold showers a few weeks before that. That helps them get used to the icy water. Some people eat a lot of fatty food to store energy, so they won’t freeze out (冻坏) in the icy water.

       5在俄罗斯，冬天很长. In this country, a city called Oymyakon is the coldest place in the country. Its winter temperature sometimes reaches 70 degrees below zero! Everything there can freeze when it is in the open air, such as people’s eyelashes (睫毛)!

23、My name is Jenny. I have been volunteering for about 16 years. I was so weak that I had to stop working. My sister suggested that I should do voluntary work which I had never thought of before.

I then decided to start volunteering in a hospital. The volunteers were making a team and chatting and I thought I’d like to help patients in that way too. In the Chapel (小礼拜堂), we take turns to do prayers (祈祷) for patients and we each have a room where we go and talk to patients. In the hospital, I often make tea and speak to patients especially if I see the patients who are sitting there on their own or don’t have visitors. I go to the Chapel every Wednesday afternoon and go to work in the hospital on the second Monday in a month.

There are so many good things about volunteering—meeting a lot of new people and building a friendship with them. I get as much as the patients do. I feel useful now and it’s terrific to think I am making a difference to somebody. Some people are looking forward to seeing you the next week. Volunteering is the best thing I’ve ever done.
