People in Shanghai know that garbage is sorted into four categories(类别)—recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan, while companies will have to pay between 1，000 to 50，000 yuan for breaking the rules. Since the rules took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced. The city also rebuilt 21，000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40，000 waste bins have been updated.However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping. According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin. Because the wet garbage will decompose(分解)properly and become useful organic(有机的)waste.By the end of 2020, garbage-sorting systems will be set up in 46 cities in our country. Everyone should take an active part in garbage sorting.(B)38.______ is the first city to carry out strict rules on garbage sorting.

A．Two men succeeded in getting to the North Pole. B．Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32°F.C．The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse. D．The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures. （D）44.What does the underlined word “uninhabited\”probably mean in Chinese?A．气候恶劣的B．充满危险的C．困难重重的D．无人居住的（C）45.The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is ______.A．that the temperature suddenly dropsB．that the water under the ice is frozenC．that the ocean water under the ice movesD．that the surface is covered with lots of ice非选择题(共55分)四、听力(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分)听短文，然后根据表格提示和所听内容完成下列各小题(每空一词)。

Isn't it boring? Do you get to meet famous actors? Does it pay well? My answers are pretty standard as well: Yes, sometimes, once in a while, and…kind of.The life of an extra is both more interesting and more boring than you might imagine.Extras, who play the people in crowds, on streets, or in the background of indoors scenes, can come from all walks of life.Unlike many extras, I'm a trained actor.I do get real speaking roles, but work can be hard to come by if you are not a popular star.I'm registered(注册) with an agency that deals only with extras, so I get calls all the time.The agency explains who I'll be—someone in the crowd, a member of a jury, a clerk —and tells me where to go.Call time is usually bright and early, so I try to get to bed as a reasonable hour.Sometimes being an extra is a “hurry up and wait”job.In my firstextra role, I was one of the group of office workers who come out of a building just as a car explodes(爆炸) in the street.We waited for hours for the scene to be shot, and then went in and out of the building about fifty times, trying to act terrified by an explosion which was not real.Then we had lunch, changed clothes and spent the afternoon as customers in a department store.It may sound like I don't enjoy the work, but I do.Being part of the background in a convincing(令人信服的) way is challenging, and being on a film or TV set is always fascinating.A lot of famous actors don't even notice the extras, but the ones who do make the job a lot of fun for everyone.As for the money, it's nothing compared to what the big actors make, but it pretty much pays the bills.And, as_a_bonus,_I've beaten my high scores on all my phone games, thanks to all the time I spend sitting around, waiting for something to happen.（C）38.Emily gives standard answers because ______.A.she is proud of her jobB．she wants to hide her feelingsC．she thinks it's unnecessary to explainD．they are the exact answers to the questions（B）39.What does Emily think of her job?A．Busy. B．Enjoyable. C．Fashionable. D．Easy.（A）40.In Paragraph 4, another way to say the underlined words “as abonus”would be .A.above expectation B．as a resultC．in general D．after all（B）41.We can infer that Emily ________.A．often pays the bills for othersB．sometimes has to get up very earlyC．has beaten all the form game playersD．was in face of danger in her first extra roleEAlibaba's smart “Future Hotel”—FlyzooHotel—has opened in Hangzhou.Now open Alipay and book a room there for yourself!When you enter the hotel，you're in a great empty hall.There is no front desk，no cashier(收银员) and no hall manager.Go ahead，and you'll see a meter-tall robot waiting for you.Just look at it for two seconds，it will scan(扫描) your face and check you in.As soon as you get to the elevator(电梯) door，it will recognize you and open for you.Then you will be taken to the floor of your booked room.All the equipment(设备) in the room is controlled by artificial intelligence(AI).Whether you want to turn on or turn off the TV，the light or the air conditioner，or even ask for the password of the WIFI，just say what you want，and the little Tmall Genie(天猫精灵) in the room will help you out.Robots can be found everywhere in the hotel.They would guide you by providing voice messages and be with you during your stay at the hotel.Even if you're hungry at midnight and want to order food，all you have to do is speak to the head of the bed.The smart robot will send your food to your room.If you want to sing karaoke，exercise，or swim，you can go to the hotel fitness room at any time.Just have your face scanned and you can enter.It's even easier to check out.Just open Alipay and pay，and then you can pack up your bag and leave!（A）42.If you want to turn on the TV，you should ______.

People in Shanghai know that garbage is sorted into four categories(类别)—recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan, while companies will have to pay between 1，000 to 50，000 yuan for breaking the rules. Since the rules took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced. The city also rebuilt 21，000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40，000 waste bins have been updated.However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping. According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin. Because the wet garbage will decompose(分解)properly and become useful organic(有机的)waste.By the end of 2020, garbage-sorting systems will be set up in 46 cities in our country. Everyone should take an active part in garbage sorting.(B)38.______ is the first city to carry out strict rules on garbage sorting.

A．Two men succeeded in getting to the North Pole. B．Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32°F.C．The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse. D．The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures. （D）44.What does the underlined word “uninhabited\”probably mean in Chinese?A．气候恶劣的B．充满危险的C．困难重重的D．无人居住的（C）45.The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is ______.A．that the temperature suddenly dropsB．that the water under the ice is frozenC．that the ocean water under the ice movesD．that the surface is covered with lots of ice非选择题(共55分)四、听力(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分)听短文，然后根据表格提示和所听内容完成下列各小题(每空一词)。

I wanted to get a ride, but there was no car. It was also hard to take a taxi. I decided to take a bus home. I went to a bus stop nearby.After a while, a bus came but it did not go to my town, the bus driver was a young woman. She was kind and she told me which bus I should take. I waited there for about thirty minutes. But no bus came. At last a car came to me and a woman came out of the car. She was just the bus driver."When I reached the bus station, I got to know that the bus to your town couldn't come, so I returned here. I just can't leave you here." she said, "Get in my car and I will take you back to your home.""It is a long way." I said."Come on, Sir, "she said, "Let's go".On the way she told me a story. A few days ago there wasn't gas (汽油) in her car. An old man drove her up to a gas station and then back to her car.When we got to my home, I wanted to give her some money to thank her.

The twig (小枝) asked, "What's the matter, little leaf?" The leaf said, "The wind just told me that one day it will pull me off!" When the tree heard this, it swung all over and promised the leaf, "You will not go till you want to."The sunny days of the autumn came. The little leaf saw all the leaves around becoming very beautiful. Some were yellow, some were red, and some were in both colors. The little leaf asked the tree what it meant. The tree said, "All these leaves are ready to fly away, and they have put on these beautiful colors because of joy."The little leaf wanted to go, and grew very beautiful in thinking of it. When it was very bright in color, it saw the branches (树枝) of the tree had no color in them. The leaf asked, "Branches, why are you brown?" "We must keep our working clothes on. Your clothes are for holiday, because your tasks are over," said a branch.Just then a little puff of wind came, took the leaf up and turned it over and over. The little leaf was like the fire in the air, and fell down silently among hundreds of other leaves. It began to dream — a dream so beautiful that perhaps it would last forever.19．The tree wanted to ________ the little leaf at first.A．protect B．give up C．control D．go with 20．Why didn't the branches change colors?A．Because the air was too dry. B．Because they had to keep working. C．Because they were too lazy. D．Because they hardly got sunshine. 21．The little leaf fell down with ________.A．sadness B．regret C．surprise D．satisfaction 22．What can we learn from the passage?A．Always prepare for the future. B．Live in and enjoy the moment. C．Each season has its own beauty. D．We should make our own decisions.You might have noticed that sometimes, when you're playing mobile games or making a video call, the picture suddenly freezes (卡顿) because the network speed is too slow. When you try to download a movie on your phone, it seems to take forever.These annoying things will soon become things of the past, as China just issuedcommercial licenses (发放商业牌照) for 5G networks on June 6. This means that China's telecommunications (电信) companies will be able to offer 5G network speeds for mobile phone users.The "G" stands for generation (代). 1G let us talk to each other, 2G let us send messages, 3G gave us mobile data and Internet, and 4G made all of these things faster. So what will 5G bring?First of all, 5G is so fast that it will allow us to download an entire HD movie in a second. The delay (延时) between sending and receiving data will be shortened. Now, 4G takes about 100 to 200 milliseconds (毫秒), while humans have a reaction time of about 200 to 300 milliseconds. But 5G will get the delay down to 1 millisecond or less, which is almostreal-time.Because of this increase in speed, it will possible to create and use new kinds of technology. Robots will be used to do operations because doctors will be able to control them from somewhere else without any delay. Self-driving cars will be able to drive more safely because they can smoothly communicate with other cars, traffic lights and road sensors (传感器). 5G also makes the Internet of Things (IOT, 物联网) possible.All in all, 5G will shape every type of technology that it touches. And you won't have to wait too long for that to happen.23．From the first paragraph that ________.A．people can't download a movie at all on the phoneB．making a video call is impossible for phone usersC．sometimes the network speed is too slow to useD．mobile games can't be downloaded on the phone24．What happened on June 6 according to the passage?A．China just gave commercial licenses officially for 5G networks.B．Every mobile phone user could improve the network speed.C．Most mobile phone users didn't use 4G anymore.D．All the mobile phones are much cheaper than before.25．The underlined word "them" refers to "___________".A．operations B．robots C．5G phones D．speeds 26．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．5G will make people's life much easier and more convenient.B．Self-driving cars will become safer because of the use of 5G.C．Using 5G to download something doesn't take any time at all.D．5G can make people download an entire HD movie in a second.If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a "lesson" in sorting (分类) garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting regulations (规章) on July 1, 2019.As China's first city to carry out strict regulations on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its residents (居民) to sort garbage into four categories (类别), namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan.Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4,500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau.The city also rebuilt 21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been updated (更新). The city's waste collection and transportation system (运输系统) is complete, according to the bureau."Proper waste sorting protects the environment and saves natural resources," said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. "Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management."However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dumping (倾倒). According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin.This separation is necessary, as it ensures that the wet garbage will decompose (分解) properly and become useful organic (有机的) waste, the bureau said.Plastic bags can affect this process.
