On a sunny Saturday,Sally and I drove over to the museum.She asked,"Do you have the address?""No,but I'll recognize it;there was a picture in the magazine.""Oh,stop.There it is!"The museum was free.We entered,excited.A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us."May I help you?"a man asked."No,"I said."We're fine."Tour guides got on my nerves.What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in?Sally had gone upstairs.The people in the hall seemed very nosy(爱窥探的),keeping their eyes on me with curiosity.What was their problem?I saw some nice sculptures in one room.Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me."Where do you think you are?"he asked.I turned sharply."The McNay Art Museum!"He smiled,shaking his head."Sorry,the McNay is on New Braunfels Street.""What's this place?"I asked,still confused."Well,it's our home."My heart jolted(颤动).I raced to the staircase and called out,"Sally!Come down immediately!""There's some really good stuff up there."She stepped down,looking confused.I pushed her toward the front door,waving at the family,saying,"Sorry,please forgive us.You have a really nice place."Outside, when I told Sally what happened,she covered her mouth,laughing.She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything.The real McNay was splendid,but we felt nervous the whole time we were there.Van Gogh,Picasso. This time,we stayed together,in case anything else unusual happened.Thirty years later,a woman approached me in a public place."Excuse me,did you ever enter a residence, long ago,thinking it was the McNay Museum?""Yes.But how do you know?We never told anyone.""That was my home.I was a teenager sitting in the hall.Before you came over,I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in.I never felt lucky before.You thought it was a museum.My feelings about my home changed after that.I've always wanted to thank you."(24)What do we know about Marian McNay?A.She passed away.B.She worked as a community leader.C.She helped in the museum.D.She wrote articles for magazines.(25)Why did the author refuse the help from the man in the house?A.She disliked people who were nosy.B.She felt nervous when talking to strangers.C.She knew more about art than the man.D.She mistook him for a tour guide.(26)How did the author feel about being stared at by the people in the hall?A.Puzzled and annoyed.B.Concerned and anxious.C.Frightened and upset.D.Delighted and excited.(27)What could we learn from the last paragraph?A.People should have good taste to enjoy life.B.People should spend more time with their family.C.People tend to be blind to the beauty around them.D.People tend to educate teenagers at a museum.C"When I grow up,I want to be a runner."These words are spoken by thousands of Kenyan children.50 percent of the Kenyan top runners are members of Kalenjin,one minority race of the country.They make up less than two percent of Kenya's population.This fact has puzzled sports scientists.They have spent considerable time and effort trying to answer one question:What enables the Kalenjin people to run so fast?Although the question seems simple,finding the answer has proven to be difficult and controversial.A team of Danish sports scientists spent18months and discovered the Kalenjins had remarkably slow heart rates even when running long distances.Kalenjins live in high﹣elevation(高海拔)villages in the Rift Valley in western Kenya.People living at high elevations produce more red blood cells,which aid in the transport ofoxygen throughout the body.Because the air is thinner and contains less oxygen at high elevations,the body produces more red blood cells.Scientists believe there is a connection between increased red blood cells and low heart rates and that both may enable high﹣altitude athletes to outperform those who train at low altitudes. The Danish scientists also studied the bodies of the Kalenjins and compared them to those of the Danes.They found that the Kalenjins have longer"birdlike"legs.The Kalenjins also have lower body mass indexes(a measure of body fat based on weight and height)and shorter bodies than Danish people.As a result of the Danish study,some scientists made the conclusion that the Kalenjins possess what is called a"speed gene(基因)".However,Kenyan runners were offended by this conclusion.They owed their success to hard work and endless hours of training.Although the controversy over the"speed gene"remains unsolved,British runner Mo Farah's experience offers an interesting perspective on the subject.In2005,he realized he wasn't meeting his potential as a runner.A group of Kenyan runners were training in England then.After he accidentally observed the Kenyans'strict training routines and dedication to their sport,Farah said it was like a switch had been turned on in his head.He began eating healthy foods,going to bed early,and training harder than he had ever trained in his life.As a result,Farah's running career exploded.He has won seven world and Olympic titles in the5000m and regularly beats Kenya's top runners!Farah's story proves what Kenyans have known all along.Regardless of genetics,their success would not be possible without hard work,dedication,sacrifice,and mental toughness.Their"secret"is simple.Train hard, run fast,and never give up.(28)What interested the sport scientists?A.Kenyan sport history.B.Kanlenjins'running ability.C.Kanlenjins'training methods.D.Kenyans'enthusiasm for sport.(29)According to Danish scientists,what leads to Kanlenjins'success?A.Physical condition.B.Living style.C.Hard training.D.Strong will.(30)How did Kenyan runners think about Danish research result?A.Convincing.B.Unacceptable.C.Astonishing.D.Important.(31)Why is Mo Farah's story mentioned in the passage?A.To show running methods count.B.To encourage British athletes.C.To prove effort pays off.D.To support gene theory.DBy now,we are all aware that social media has had a tremendous influence on our culture,in business,on the world﹣at﹣large.Social media websites revolutionized the way people communicate and socialize on the Web.However,aside from seeing your friends'new baby on Facebook,or reading about Justin Bieber's latest conflict with the law on Twitter,what are some of the real influences?Social networks offer the opportunity for people to re﹣connect with their old friends and acquaintances, make new friends,share ideas and pictures,and many other ers can keep pace with the latest global and local developments and participate in campaigns and activities of their choice.Professionals usesocial media sites like LinkedIn to enhance their career and business development.Students can work together with their peers to improve their academic and communication skills.Unfortunately,there are a few downsides too to social networking.If you are not careful,immoral people can target you for cyber bullying and disturbance on social sites.School children,young girls,and women can fall victim to online attacks which can create tension and suffering.If you are a victim of cyber bullying,do not take it lying down,but try to take appropriate legal action against the attacker.Many companies have blocked social networks as addicted employees can distract themselves on such sites,instead of focusing on work.In fact,studies show that British companies have lost billions of dollars per year in productivity because of social media addiction among employees.Also,what you carelessly post on the Net can come back to trouble you.Revealing(泄露)personal information on social sites can make users vulnerable(易受伤害的)to crimes like identity theft,stalking,etc. Many companies perform a background check on the Web before hiring an employee.If a potential employee has posted something embarrassing on social media,it can greatly affect their chances of getting the job.The same holds true for our relationships,too,as our loved ones and friends may get to know if we post something undesirable on social networks.Social media has its advantages and drawbacks as each coin has two sides.It is up to each user to use social sites wisely to enhance their professional and Social life,and exercise caution to ensure they do not fall victim to online dangers.(32)Paragraph2mainly shows that social networks_________.A.benefit users in various waysB.offer professionals good chancesC.guide users to make right choicesD.help students finish their homework(33)Faced with problems caused by social media,some companies_________.A.take legal action against the attackersB.avoid posting embarrassing informationC.refuse to hire potential addicted employeesD.forbid the use of social networks during work time(34)The main purpose of this passage is to_________.A.share experiences in using social mediaB.provide some advice on social problemsC.raise public awareness of social problemsD.remind people to wisely use social media(35)Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?A. B.C.D.I:Introduction P:Point Sp:Sub﹣point(次要点)C:Conclusion第四部分阅读信息还原(满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.Where did your family eat dinner last night?In the car on the way to sport?At McDonald's?Or at the dinner table?A survey taken a few years ago found that28%families ate dinner together at home seven nights a week.Another quarter said they ate together three or fewer nights a week.Once upon a time the situation was different.__36__Plates,forks and spoons would be laid out.As dinner time approached,an increasing number of hungry mouths would begin to appear with the question,"What's for dinner?"__37__The data seems to point to two main issues:overworked parents and overscheduled children. When mum or dad do get home in the evening,they are soon in the car again to send the children to soccer, music,tutoring,and a host of other events.This nightly ceremony around the dinner table is both vital and fruitful;it is what keeps a family together. Sure,the conversation is not always significant,and children argue.And sometimes the deepest and most meaningful times in a family are not at the table at all.__38__The dinner table is the place where a family builds an identity.Stories are passed down,jokes are exchanged and the wider world is examined through the lens(镜头)of a family's values.Children pick up vocabulary and a sense of how conversation is structured. __39__Dinner time is"family time".Coming back daily to the same place helps gain familiarity.The significance of dinner time is more than above.Studies show that the more families eat together,the less likely the children are to smoke,drink,get depressed,and develop eating disorders,and the more likely they are to do well in school and learn how to socialize.One professor at Rutgers University in New Jersey stated,"__40__"So,start by planning some stay at home family dinners together.Just family talk.A.A meal is a time for parents to civilize their children.B.Each night the dining table would be set with a simple cloth.C.Why not cut back on a few activities and have dinner with your family?D.What accounts for this decline in families eating together today though?E.They also learn good table manners,something that will benefit them for life.F.It was important for children and parents to sit down together and get to know each other.G.However,there is still something unique about the time a family spends around the dinner table.第五部分书面表达(共三节,满分5分)第一节选词填空(共1小题;每小题5分,满分5分)根据句意,选择适当的词并用其正确的形式填空,有两个词为多余选项.每空只填一个词.(41)We want to

AFor more than two decades, France is known as the world’s most popular tourist attraction, receiving 82 million foreign tourists every year. Here are some of the best places to visit in France.MarseilleMarseille is one of Europe’s oldest cities and France’s second largest city. Having a nice climate, Roman ruins, medieval (中世纪的) architecture and cultural scenes, Marseille is also a working city with several universities and industries. One of Marseille’s best natural attractions, the Calanques are a series of small rivers with astonishing blue water and splendid cliffs.LuberonDuring the summer months, many people like to experience charming villages in Luberon. This region in central Provence took off as a tourist attraction after Peter Mayle published his books about life in Provence. With its large quantities of forests, fields of lavender (薰衣草), farmers markets and colorfully painted houses, you’ll soon see why Luberon is such a tourist attraction.DordogneThere is just so much to see and do in Dordogne, beginning with picture-postcard villages and castles. The scenery is pretty amazing, too, with the Dordogne River running through it. Dordogne also has some of the best ancient cave art in France. The walls of Lascaux feature mainly animals, which are a must-see.ParisAttracting more than 45 million visitors every year, Paris is the world’s most popular tourist attraction. Paris, the capital city of France, is just like a little “France”.

Many parents are freaked out (惊慌失措) about putting their easily distracted teenagers in charge of a fast-moving chunk (大块) of glass and steel. My wife refused to teach her, leaving the task to me.I’ve learned a few things. First, Mia didn’t know how to drive at all. She didn’t even know where to put the key. It was like watching a chimpanzee try to solve a puzzle. Worse, she couldn’t remember that D was for drive, and R meant reverse (倒车).Then came the road rules. Mia likes to sail past stop signs. I had to explain that “STOP means STOP”. Had she actually read the r ule book? “Yes,” she said, but she forgot most of it. “It was so boring.”Although I had been driving her around for her whole life, she hadn’t learned anything.Despite these things, I’ve also learned that I enjoy teaching her. I think I’m pretty good at it. I am much calmer than I thought I would be.I also enjoy the one-on-one time we have together. We have some good conversations. So far, we have covered her friends’ hairstyles and how stressed she feels after school. I enjoyed communicating with her.One Sunday evening, we were driving down a narrow back street, deep in conversation, when I realized that the car was moving quite fast. “SLOW DOWN!” I yelled, yanking (猛拉) the hand brake (手刹).We stopped the car and sat in the dark for a minute. “You can’t go that fast,” I said. “You don’t know enough yet.” I put my hand on her head, “I don’t want anything to happen to you.”“Me neither.” she said.“Okay, cool,” I said. “Let’s go.”she started the car and we headed back home.4. What can we know from the first four paragraphs?A. Mia was worried about driving.B. Mia didn’t get along with her mother.C. Mia was a beginner at driving.D. Mia was naturally good at driving.5. The author enjoys teaching Mia mainly because _____.A. it helps him be calmer in daily lifeB. he gets to know more about herC. it is more hands-on teachingD. he can help plan her future6.

To describe what it’s like to have a teenage daughter.C. To prove teenagers can be easy to communicate with.D. To remind parents to value the time they spend with their kids.CNew law lets students sleep inWhen your alarm clock rings and you drag yourself out of bed, you probably wonder: Why on earth does school have to start so early?Fortunately, there is a new law to back you up―or better still, science.A law in California, passed on Oct 13, requires that public middle schools begin classes no earlier than 8:00 am and that high schools start no earlier than 8:30 am. The law will go into effect by July 1, 2022.Starting school at 8:00 or 8:30 in the morning may not sound like too big of a change, but it could mean one more hour of sleep for students who used to start school at 7:30 or even earlier.“The effect of that one hour is something they will be feeling as 40-year-old adults,” Sumit Bhargava, a sleep expert at Stanford University told The New York Times. He said that not having enough sleep can affect students’ mental health and increase the risk of getting fat and diabetes (糖尿病).In the short run, students’ school performances should improve almost immediately. Kyla Wahlstrom, a researcher at the University of Minnesota’s College of Education, found that students who have enough sleep are more alert (机敏的) in class and get better grades.Some might say that urging students to go to bed earlier could have been a much easier solution than changing the school timetable across an entire state. But according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, teenagers go through biologicalchanges when they enter puberty (青春期), which makes it difficult for them to fall asleep before 11: 00 pm. So when school starts at 8: 00 or earlier, they can hardly get the ideal 8.5-9.5 hours of sleep that experts suggest they need to do their best in the daytime.This is why when the new law came out, its author, Anthony Portanti no, said, “Generations of children will come to appreciate (感激) this historic day and our governor for taking bold action.8. When should public high schools start classes according to the California’s new law?A. No earlier than 7:30 am.B. No earlier than 8:00 am.C. No earlier than 8:30 am.D. No earlier than 9:00 am.9. What can we learn from Bhargava’s words?A. The amount of sleep people need changes with age.B. Lack of sleep affects adults more than children.C. Sleep problems are one of the leading causes of diabetes.D. Lack of sleep could lead to health problems.10. What do we know about teenagers’ sleep patterns?A. Less sleep is needed when they enter puberty.B. Ideally, they need eight hours of sleep a night.C. They may have difficulty falling asleep before 11:00 pm.D. They often wake up at midnight due to biological changes.11.Where does this passage probably come from?A. A textbook.B. An advertisement.C. A newspaper.D. A biography.D“Severe flooding in Venice that has left much of the Italian city under water is a direct result of climate change,” the mayor says. The highest water levels in the region in more than 50 years would leave a permanent mark, Venice Mayor Luigi Brugnaro tweeted. “Now the government must listen,” he added. “These are the effects of climate change. The cost will be high.”The waters in Venice peaked at 1.87m, according to the tide monitoring centre. Only once since official records began in 1923 has the tide been higher, reaching 1.94m in 1966. St Mark’s Square — one of the lowest parts of the city — was one of the worst hit areas. St Mark’s Basilica was flooded for the sixth time in 1,200 years, according to church records. Pierpaolo Campostrini, a member of St Mark’s council, said four of those floods had now occurred within the past 20 years.The mayor said the famous landmark had suffered grave damage. The crypt was completely flooded and there are fears of structural damage to the basilica’s columns. The city of Venice is made up of more than 100 islands inside a lagoon (濒海湖) off the north-east coast of Italy. Two people died on the island of Pellestrina, a thin strip of land that separates the lagoon from the Adriatic Sea. One of them was electrocuted (触电身亡) as he tried to start a pump in his home.Mr Brugnaro said the damage was huge and that he would declare a state of disaster, warning that a project to help prevent the Venetian lagoon suffering devastating floods must be finished soon. “The situation is dramatic. We ask the government to help us,” he sa id on Twitter, adding that schools would remain closed until the water level subsides. He also urged local businesses to share photosand video footage of the devastation, which he said would be useful when requesting financial help from the government.12. Why was St Mark’s Square one of the worst hit areas?A.Because it lied on the coast of the sea.B.Because it was in the low-lying area in Venice.C.Because the flood first flew through this place.D.Because it was a place where it rained most heavily.13. What does the underlined word“devastating ” mean?A. Slight.B. Urgent.C. Destructive.D. Unforgettable.14. What did Mr Brugnaro do to get the government’s support?A. He would declare a state of disaster.B. He would ask the schools to remain closed.C. He made a project to prevent the lagoon suffering floods.D. He called on local businesses to share information on social media.15. What can we learn from the passage?A. Two people died from drowning.B. It is the highest water level since being recorded.C. The flood has caused basilica’s columns being damaged.D. St Mark's Basilica has been flooded four times in the past20 years.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

They were the most winning pair s k a t e r s o n t h e i c e i n e v e r y w a y:T h e t i n y f r a g i l e E k a t e r i n a,i n t h e 19 of her tall, strong, handsome partner, lovingly launched into the 20 , tenderly caught, and beautifully skated around the ice.Gradually, the two of them 21 together into a dream couple and the most beautiful kind of loving relationship.

Maxson Middle School Principal Kevin Stansbury put forward the phone ban last week after he noticed some major issues in the school. “Our test scores were down, discipline was up,” he says. According tohim, students were too focused on their phones to pay attention to their lessons. So, he purchased Yondr pouches for the school.When students come into class each morning, they place their phones in the pouch, which is then locked up tight. It can only be opened using a special device at the end of the day. The ban on mobile devices applies not just during class time but during breaks, with the only exceptions being in times of emergency or in cases of students who need such devices to help with disabilities. Yondr pouch Eighth-graders who spoke with News 12 New Jersey say that they noticed a change in a matter of hours. “It’s just better for everyone because you’ll understand how it feels to get more work done instead of paying attention to the phone,” says student Charlene V. “I’m usually listening to music, but today I got to communicate with all my friends,” says student Desiree Duncan.The program was originally met with resistance from students and parents, so the process was not that smooth. But teachers and administrators say that the program will have a ma jor impact. “Students were talking and laughing and there were no cellphones other than being carried in the pouches,” Stansbury says.Teacher Nia Cummings says she even noticed students bouncing ideas off each other in class. She says students used to give up quickly and just look for answers on their phones. She says they now try to figure it out themselves. “Everyone is socializing and eating lunch together. That’s what I wasn’t seeing enough of when phone usage was at its worst,” she adds.Maxson Middle School is currently the only one in the district to use these pouches. Kevin Stansbury also called on all the schools in the community that it’s worth paying close attention to cellphone issues at secondary schools and taking actions when necessary.34. Maxson Middle School put forward the phone ban because students _____.A. weren’t focused on school workB. were always listening to musicC. used phones to cheat on examsD. stopped talking with others35 What did the two eighth-graders tell the newspaper?A. Opposition from students.B. Teamwork with friends.C. Daily routine at school.D. Effect of the program.36. According to Nia Cummings, what change has the phone ban brought?A. Students discuss more in class.B. Students finish their work on time.C. Students guess the answers themselves.D. Students check messages during the break.37. It can be inferred from the passage that the phone ban _____.A. has brought little change to teaching and learningB. has gained support from every student and parentC. might be carried out in other schools in the communityD. might have good influence on students’ health conditionsCLiving alone in nature is the kind of decision that looks great on paper. You could move away from the pressures of city life, to somewhere with a lower cost of living and more privacy. You could enjoy scenic views all year round, and adopt a simpler way of life. It’s not hard to see the appeal of this at all. But what happens when that all goes wrong?Paul Kingsnorth is a distinguished writer—his novel The Wake was longlisted for the Booker Prize and won the Gordon Burn Prize. His books help develop an awareness of place and h istory, so it’s not hugely surprising that his latest book, Savage Gods, is about his own rural existence. Savage Gods is in part about Kingsnorth, his wife, and their children moving to western Ireland. He writes, “In my country a small house and a field is beyond the means of anyone who doesn’t earn much money or who refuses to get into debt tochase a dream.” It’s a feeling that anyone who’s looked longingly at rural tiny houses miles from anyone else can relate to.But Kingsnorth is aware that this is o nly part of the story. “Because I am not a real farmer, I have to make my money in other places,” he writes, “I need the Internet or the Dublin-to-Holyhead ferry and sometimes both to put food on my family’s table.” To make matters worse, Kingsnorth’s isolation(隔离) results in a crisis of confidence in his own writing abilities—which becomes one of the central themes of Savage Gods.Kingsnorth isn’t the only writer to make time spent in a vivid countryside landscape sound less enjoyable than one might expect. The French writer Sylvain Tesson takes this to what may be its most extreme point in his book. He lived alone for six months. His book includes impressive descriptions of the landscape and what it’s like to experience depression in the middle of such a l andscape.Some books neatly remind you of the appeal of such an existence, while others make the drawbacks central to their accounts. In Names for the Sea, Moss summarizes the attraction of wilder places. “We’d come for the landscape, for the pale nights and dark shores, rain sweeping over trees and bushes,” she writes. From that, it’s not hard to see why a life in nature—even with its potential downsides—still appeals to so many.38.According to Paragraph 1, living in isolation makes people_____.A. look greatB. reveal their privacyC. overcome pressuresD. enjoy a lower living cost39. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Paul Kingsnorth helps readers develop an awareness of time and space.B. Paul Kingsnorth starts to have doubts about his ability as a writer.C. Paul Kingsnorth’s family live comfortably in a rural house.D. Paul Kingsnorth couldn’t afford a tiny rural house.40. What do you know about Paul Kingsnorth?A. He thinks it a perfect idea to live alone in nature.B. He earns money somewhere else to make ends meet.C. His latest book is about the attraction of wilder places.D. Living in the countryside landscape results in his depression.41. Why does the author mention Sylvain Tesson and his book?A. To inform readers of a famous French writer.B. To praise him for his marvelous writing skills.C. To explain how to live in the peaceful countryside.D. To emphasize more writers experience similar problems.DElon Musk, perhaps the world’s most famous businessman, has a habit of making statements that stretch the bounds of believability.On July 16th, 2019, he introduced a new type of brain-machine interface (BMI), starting from the design of a “neural lace (神经织网)”, a net of thin electrodes (电极) that capture the information from the brain. However, the electrodes must be flexible, so that they do not damage brain tissue and will last for a long time. And to make the implantation (植入) of so many electrodes safe, painless and effective, the process has to be automated.Mr. Musk’s team does indeed seem to have made progress towards these goals. Its presentation included videos of a robot that is best described as a sewing m achine. This robot grabs “threads”, and shoots them deep into the brain through a hole. The firm has also designed a chip that can handle signals from as many as 3,072 electrodes.With all these technological breakthroughs, the firm now hopes to help people overcome such illnesses as blindness and paralysis. They designed a small device that would sit behind someone’s ear, picking up signals from the implanted chip and passing them on as appropriate. In a few years, using a brain implant to control your devices may be as prevalent as wearing wireless earphones today. Finally, Musk predicts neural lace will allow humans to be combined with AI systems, thus enabling the species to survive.Though, as this announcement shows, Mr. Musk does have a habit of presenting himself as the hero of the human race, the idea that some machines at least will come under the direct control of human brains seems possible to be carried out. The biggest barrier to this happening will probably not be writing thesoftware needed to interpret brainwaves, but rather persuading people that the necessary surgery, whether by sewing machine or otherwise, is actually a good idea.42. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that _____.A. electrodes should be flexible to extend lifeB. Elon Musk constantly comes up with unexpected ideasC. a neural lace is used to store information from the brainD. electrodes are implanted by top surgeons for safety reasons43. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Useful.B. Common.C. Professional.D. Appropriate.44. What is the hardest part of carrying out BMI?A. Convincing people to accept the surgery.B. Developing devices to perform the surgery.C. Writing the software to interpret brainwaves.D. Informing people of the success of the surgery.45. What is the best title of this passage?A. The Neural Lace, A New Type of BMI.B. Elon Musk, the Hero of Human Beings.C. Artificial Intelligence, the Way to Survive.D. A Brain Implant, A Step to Control Machines.第Ⅱ卷(共65分)I. 选词填空(共7小题;每小题2分,共14分)用方框中单词的适当形式完成下列句子, 每个单词只能用一次。
