2019年12月14日雅思考试真题回忆+答案

小作文题型：柱状图主题：大作文In many countries today people are living in a ‘throwaway society’， where things are used in a short time and then thrown away. What are its causes？ What are its problems？主题：社会类题型：Problem/solutionOurs is a throw-away society strongly influenced by consumerism as we value convenience over environmental protection. Even though we are environmentally conscious to some extent， we do not appear to be serious enough in taking measures to reduce consumption， let alone repairing and re-using old things instead of buying new ones. Much is known about what is happening whereas little is being done toeffectively prevent the serious situation from becoming worse.The causes of the development of the ＂throw-away society＂ are clear， so are its effects on the environment. We throw away out of convenience because societal conventions have us constantly move on to the next new fad or technology. For example， we are dumping large quantities of thrash， such as plastic bags and diapers that can pollute the environment. Likewise， we are discarding televisions， cell phones， computers and other plastics in exchange of new ones that unsurprisingly will become our future garbage. It is as if a product were designed or intended on purpose to fail or become less desirable over time， only to be thrown away after a certain amount of use. So much so， we are filling the environment with more rubbish than we can possibly dispose of， and as a result pollution is the price we are paying for the popular culture of consumerism in the age of mass production.题目的关键词：many countriestoday，living in a ‘throw-away society’，things are used in a short time和thrown away，根据这些必要的关键词，回答题目的问题，是什么原因，造成什么问题就好了。

2019年雅思IELTS考试备考资料模拟试题及答案14The nervous system of vertebrates is characterized by a hollow, dorsal nerve cord that ends in the head region as an enlargement, the brain. Even in its most primitive form this cord and its attached nerves are the result of evolutionary specialization, and their further evolution from lower to higher vertebrate classes is a process that is far from fully understood. Nevertheless, the basic arrangements are similar in all vertebrates, and the study of lower animals gives insight into the form and structure of the nervous system of higher animals. Moreover, for any species, the study of the embryological development of the nervous system is indispensable for an understanding of adult morphology.In any vertebrate two chief parts of the nervous system may be distinguished. These are the central nervous system (the nerve cord mentions above), consisting of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system, consisting of the cranial, spinal, and peripheral nerves, together with their motor and sensory endings. The term "autonomic nervous system" refers to the parts of the central and peripheral systems that supply and regulate the activity of cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and many glands.The nervous system is composed of many millions of nerve and glial cells, together with blood vessels and a small amount of connective tissue. The nerve cells, or "neurons", are characterized by many processes and are specialized in that they exhibit to a great degree the phenomena ofirritability and conductivity. The glial cells of the central nervous system are supporting cells collectively termed"neuroglia". They are characterized by short processes that have special relationships to neurons, blood vessels, and connective tissue. The comparable cells in the peripheral nervous system are termed "neurilemmal" cells.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) The parts of a neuron(B) The structure of animals' nerve(C) The nervous system of vertebrates(D) The development of the brain2. According to the passage , the nerve cord of vertebrates is(A) large(B) hollow(C) primitive(D) embryological3. The author implies that a careful investigation of a biological structure in an embryo may(A) Improved research of the same structure in other species(B) A better understanding of the fully developed structure(C) Discovering ways in which poor development can be corrected(D) A method by which scientists can document the various stages of development4. The two main parts of the central nervous system are the brain and the(A) sensory endings(B) cranial nerve(C) spinal cord(D) peripheral nerves5. All of the following are described as being controlled by the autonomic nervous system EXCEPT(A) connective tissue(B) cardiac muscle(C) glandular activity(D) smooth muscle6. In what lines does the author identify certain characteristic of nerve cells?(A) lines 1-2(B) lines 9-12(C) lines 12-14(D) lines 16-18CBBCA D。

Crab spider feeding ona Junonia atlites butterfly in a Zinnia elegans flowerModels of Egg Development（14年9月27日，15年9月19日考题；爬行动物的硬蛋壳是如何从两栖动物的软壳进化来的，各种理论学说；Romer认为是某种两栖动物你产卵在陆地上，硬蛋壳是为了防干燥起到保护作用；Kohring认为是蛋需要包含更多的营养，钙离子储备在外层导致；Gary Packard认为坚硬蛋壳出现是为了起到保护作用，但是同时也阻碍了水分的吸收，所以蛋内需要保留大量水分；Mary Packard和Seymour认为，两栖动物的卵比爬行动物的蛋要小，是因为其中有一层明胶，清除之后可以导致进化出更大的蛋）Colonial America and theNavigation Acts（15年3月7日题）The Idea of Continental Drift（2016年11月13日题，话题不难，真题篇章和TPO都有非常雷同的篇章，比如Early Theories of Continental Drift、Gondwana）Wool Industry in Fifteenth-CenturyEurope（16年2月28日，19年10月12日和1月13日题；15世纪的羊毛纺织业受行会（guild）控制，但随着羊毛纺织从城市向农村扩散，行会不再能够控制产品质量和利润，从而生产出了大量廉价轻薄的纺织品供农民使用。

尤其在德国和英国，控制着原材料的商人寻找最低廉的劳动力，发现农村空闲时期的妇女和儿童劳力成本最低，将大量羊毛承包外放给他们去纺布，追求最大化利益。

2019年12月雅思A类作文真题范文汇总12月7日Task 1:The bar chart below shows the changes of the number (thousands) of four kinds of students in the UK in the years 1980, 1990 and 2005.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.范文The column chart depicts the number of four categories of pupils in the United Kingdom in the years 1980, 1990 and 2005. The data recorded on the vertical axis is measured in “thousands”and the horizontal in the years, whether male or female, and lastly, if full or part-time learners.Overall, an upward trend was recorded in all groupings except one, males in part-time study which dripped. Furthermore, in 2005 these figures rose dramatically, outpacing recorded growth with more female students at the survey’s end.In 1980 the data had little difference with full-time males and females at about 200,000, yet part-time males recorded a figure double that of females, at 180,000. This changed moderately in 1990, where full-time males jumped to 300,000, while part-time males plummeted to just 100,000, approximately half that of 1980. In contrast, female figures both rose moderately beating previous data. However, 2005 saw dramatic gains across the board, with female full-time education soaring to a peak of 820,000 and part-time at 800,000, respectively, edging out the males in the order of 20,000 respectively.12月7日Task 2:Nowadays some older people choose to live in the retirement communities with other people , rather than living with their adult children.Is it a positive or negative development?Fundamental changes have taken place in society, none more so than how the elderly are taken care of in their autumn years. Whilst in the past, senior citizens were looked after by their offspring, now, this is not always the case. Instead, some are opting for retirement homes and villages. Whether this is a benefit or drawback needs to be examined on a case-y-case basis as one size does not fit all.On the one hand, it is said that blood is thicker than water. Many believe that mature sons and daughters bear a social responsibility for the care and welfare of their aging parents. Moreover, these obligations are better served by the people who are known and trusted. This arrangement is far better than being in the dubious care and company of total strangers. In addition, retirement villages are not usually cheap and they can place a substantial financial strain on the retirees.On the other hand, retirement homes can offer a wide range of stimulating activities for their guests. An older person, who has lost his or her life partner is now living in the company of people alike. Furthermore, sharing life experiences, by taking trips down “Memory Lane” can be therapeutic for many. Furthermore, most such retirement centers have trained nurses on call 24/7, offering a higher level of care. Older people need health services more frequently in their twilight years.In conclusion, I believe that retirement needs to be appraised on the unique merits of the situation at hand. After careful consideration of all the factors, the retirees and family can make an informed decision, so as all to enjoy life, and live it to the full.12月14日Task 1:The bar chart below shows percentages of three groups of Australian children taking part in four kinds of activities in 2012.Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.The bar chart illustrates the age influence on Australian children’s preference to four types of leisure activities in 2012.Overall, the age influence on Australian children’s preferences to all activities was not significant. In result, the ranking of their popularities remained similar regardless of the changes in ages, yet the differences between them became larger as children grew older.Biking was the only activity whose participation rate (approximately 65%) for the 9-to-11-year-olds was lower than those for the other two age groups: about 75% for the 5-to-8-year-olds and 85% for the 12-to-16-year-olds.The participation rate of art was negatively correlated to ages. Only 60% of the 5-to-8-year-olds took part in it, while this figure was down to 55% for the 9-to-qq-year-olds and no record for the oldest ones, ranking the least popular across the ages.By contrast, children showed a stronger willingness to watch TV and read as they were older. Climbing continuously from 90% to nearly 100%, the participation rates of the former were the highest in all age groups, while the latter’s grew marginally from some 65% to 70%.12月14日Task 2:Today in many countries people are living in a “throw-away” society where things are used for a short time and then thrown away. What do you think is the cause and what problems will it lead to?The throwaway society, a rather contemporary terminology which describes people’s tendency of discarding goods only after a short life cycle, is not novel to most of the residents in economically developed area these days. From my perspective, two main factors prompt this quickly-spreading but worrisome social phenomenon.The significant boost in manufacturing productivity attributed to continuous technological breakthroughs is the first and foremost stimulus. Mass production and automatic assembly lines installed in most factories nowadays substantially increase the outputs and thus, lower the cost of consumer goods. As a result, throwing away used products and buying new ones can be much cheaper and more convenient for families leading a busy urban life. In addition, the fact that many commodities are upgraded rapidly due to the fast-changing trends and technological advancement is another contributor. Fashionable items, such as clothes and accessories, are a perfect example to show contemporary people’s attitudes. On the top of that, new models of electronic devices with the latest functions are launched into the market once every few months. In order to benefit from these new features, customers are often “forced”tor “tempted”to change their smart phones or tablets, for example, more frequently than before even when they are still perfectly functioning.The detrimental impact on the environment and the waste of natural resources are the two most direct consequences of this trend. A large amount of domestic waste is inevitably generated daily. Even though some can be recycled assuming that household garbage classification is effectively implemented in most communities, more landfills are still needed, let alone the potential threat posed by non-biodegradable rubbish, such as plastic bags. Meanwhile, soaring water resource and fossil fuels are consumed to meet the high demand for consumer goods, draining the earth in an astonishing speed.In summary, for the survival of humanity in the future, it is high time to give serious consideration to this current problem. Eradicating the “throw-away” culture in modern society is an effective first step.12月21日Task 1:The table gives information about students’opinions on different aspects of courses they attended in a university in 2012. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.Percentage of students rating aspects of their courses as “Very Good”范文The table shows how students feel about a variety of aspects of courses they took in university in 2012.Among the three given courses, the aspect of business earned more appreciation from the students than the other two. In terms of teaching quality and tutor support, the rating as “very good” reached 93% and 96% respectively, which were the highest compared with computing and maths. The percentage of satisfactory comments for course content and resources were also higher than average level.As a contrast, the rating for the aspect of computing as “very good”was lower than average concerning pre-course information (61%), tutor support (85%) and course content (69%). The students also did not think highly about the teaching quality and resources.The number of students who were satisfied with the pre-course information of the maths course was slightly more than business and computing. However, the teaching quality was only recognized by 64% of the students, which were much less than those of business and computing. The situation was similar for resources.All in all, business was the most welcomed course among the students. Besides, among the five categories, students are more satisfied with the teaching quality and tutor support than the others.12月21日Task 2:Today many people spend less and less time in their homes. What are the reasons and what are the effects of this trend on individuals and society?范文Currently, there are soaring number of people spending less time with family members compared to the past and there are numerous reasons for this social phenomenon.From my point view, study and work may be main reasons that keep people away from their homes. The increasing students have to attend extra lessons after school to prepare for exams, which costs much of their spare time. Meanwhile, adults usually need to work for a long time. In order to finish their tasks in time, they have no choice but work overtime, which makes them impossible to spend time in their homes. Besides, people often live far away from their workplaces, so they need to spend for over one hour commuting on subways or buses, which results in declining home time for employees.Such trend may have negative effects on people as well as the whole society. Employees do not have enough time for them to stay with their family members because of the heavy work load, which is harmful to the establishment of family bonds. Children may lack their busy parents’company and guide in the process of their growth, which would contribute to some behavior problems like anxiousness and peer stress. Furthermore, adverse outcomes would also appear in the society. Since people stay outside for a long time, which may put heavy burdens on the public transportation, leading to traffic jams, safety issues and so on.In conclusion, although people can broaden their horizons through going out their homes, they are often busy with work or study burdens. Such situation would cause the reduction of people’s happiness level, and contributes negative effects on people and society.。

2019年12月12日&14日雅思写作小范围机经预测11. A rise in living standards seems to benefit people in cities only, rather than those in rural areas. What problems can it cause and how to solve them?Currently, it seems that urban dwellers benefit from a rise in living standards while rural dwellers cannot. This essay will examine problems caused by this phenomenon, as well as some solutions for it.To begin with, the average life quality of city dwellers will be reduced. Since the living standards in cities are improved, a lot of rural residents will choose to migrate to cities for better medical care, education and so on. However, with the urban population increasing, people have to face a lot of problems, such as failing to find decent jobs or being caught up in traffic congestion more frequently. As a result, they actually face more competition and waste more time on commuting, and it affects their life quality.Furthermore, rural areas cannot be developed when standards of living cannot be enhanced. As mentioned above, a lot of rural residents are more likely to dwell in cities for a better life, but it will lead to a declining population in towns and villages. Then, agriculture and manufacturing will face a shortage of labor, and due to a lack of consumers, the tertiary industry cannot be developed either. Then, local governments will find it difficult to make their regions more competitive to attract qualifiedemployees.In order to tackle this issue, governments need to take some measures to enhance living standards of rural areas. Social welfare, such as pension, must be guaranteed, and infrastructure, such as roads, must be upgraded, and then some people probably will come back to rural areas for working and living. In addition, it is also an optimal choice for businesses to relocate their corporations in rural areas. Governments can provide enterprises with subsidies if enterprises are willing to move, and then rural areas will have more employees, as well as more consumers.In sum, the gap between the living standards of urban areas and those of rural areas will affect not only the life quality of city dwellers but also the development of rural areas. Governments need to enforce policies to encourage businesses to move to rural areas and enhance living standards of rural areas simultaneously.2019年12月12日&14日雅思写作小范围机经预测2Some groups, such as poor people and people from rural areas, think universities should make it especially easy for them to get access to university education. To what extent do you agree or disagree?It is true that higher education is unavailable to many students residing in remote areas. So, it is suggested by some people that universities should make it easier for those groups to enroll into universities, which I strongly oppose that. I believe that they should receive the same standard as others in order to be educated in universities.There are many reasons for my argument. Firstly, it would be quite unfair for those from wealthy family backgrounds. Thecause lies in the fact that they have to participate in the same college entrance exam nationwide under the same assessment scheme. If their counterparts from rural areas are provided privilege with lower standards, it would become an humiliation for their efforts and commitment they have made. Meanwhile, the poorer students would take it for granted when university education is offered to them. In this case, they may end up with no academic passion and initiatives.Surely, due to the impoverty-stricken reality in many places throughout the world, some talented students fail to continue their study itinerary education, which causes the high percentage of unemployment. However, this can be addressed strategically as long as the government can introduce some policies, like scholarship or loans, to help them get through.In conclusion, I would argue that it is unjustified for schools to help needy students to be qualified for higher education by means of lowering the enrolling standard. They should ground themselves as their peers to get access to further study.2019年12月12日&14日雅思写作小范围机经预测3In some countries, people waste a lot of food which is bought in shops and restaurants. What do you think are the reasons? What can be done to solve this problem?As more and more foods can grace our dinner table, modern people begin to disregard leftovers in restaurants and shops, causing many unnecessary wastes. It is high time to dig the root causes and propose some possible solutions.One underlying factor associated with wasteful behaviour is restaurants and shops may be unwilling to gear to changed lifestyle as a result of added costs. As technology advancement splits families into smaller units and allows solitary life possible,people no longer need large size of foods. Serving small size of food may incur dissatisfaction and more running costs. Consequently, the usual large portion of foods and increasing awareness of not eating overnight leftovers due to possible carcinogens contained compel people to become wastrels.Lower food prices could be another main culprit. When food technology not only increases food supply but also expands food varieties with affordable prices, people would value foods less, believing they would be impossibly subject to food shortage as their elder generations were. Dazzling and inexpensive food options coax modern people to unwittingly purchase more than what they need. Therefore, any affordable waste of foods is nothing compared to convenience and happiness derived from the unwise consumption.As the wasteful consumption of food prevails, the right approach to rein in its momentum has two strands. The first is to advocate restaurants and shops to tailor small, medium and large sizes of foods. This may seem to raise costs initially, but varied food sizes could spur consumers to sample more varieties, and the customized and economical consumption can attract more loyal and new customers in the long run, thus compensating early extra costs. The second is to launch awareness campaign against food waste. For example, children at school should be inculcated with the awareness of clearing plates, while the media should be included to spread and shape frugality as a respectable behavior rather than parsimony.To conclude, low prices and large portion should primarily account for wasting foods, and multiple efforts are needed, for this cannot be changed overnight.考官最讨厌的十种雅思写作开头!很有一种可能就是你的开头就让雅思考官看了就毫无阅读欲望、愤然扣分!今天就看看那些考官看了想打人、想吐血的十种开头吧!一、中式英语讨厌指数：上榜理由：用中式英文开头，不仅会让考官看不懂，还暴露了你的语言功底，语料积累匮乏，是雅思写作中的大忌。

2019年雅思阅读理解精选试题及答案卷面总分：100分答题时间：50分钟试卷题量：10题一、问答题（共10题，共100分）1.Selling Digital Music without Copy-protection Makes SenseA. It was uncharacteristically low-key for the industry’s greatest showman. But the essay published this week by Steve Jobs, the boss of Apple, on his firm’s website under the unassuming title “Thoughts on Music” has nonetheless provoked a vigorous debate about the future of digital music, which Apple dominates with its iPod music-player and iTunes music-store. At issue is “digital rights management” (DRM)—the technology guarding downloaded music against theft. Since there is no common standard for DRM, it also has the side-effect that songs purchased for one type of music-player may not work on another. Apple’s DRM system, called FairPlay, is the most widespread. So it came as a surprise when Mr. Jobs called for DRM for digital music to be abolished.B. This is a change of tack for Apple. It has come under fire from European regulators who claim that its refusal to license FairPlay to other firms has “locked in” customers. Since music from the iTunes store cannot be played on non-iPod music-players (at least not without a lot of fiddling), any iTunes buyer will be deterred from switching to a device made by a rival firm, such as Sony or Microsoft. When French lawmakers drafted a bill last year compelling Apple to open up FairPlay to rivals, the company warne d of “state-sponsored piracy”. Only DRM, it implied, could keep the pirates at bay.C. This week Mr. Jobs gave another explanation for his former defence of DRM: the record companies made him do it. They would make their music available to the iTunes store only if Apple agreed to protect it using DRM. They can still withdraw their catalogues if the DRM system is compromised. Apple cannot license FairPlay to others, says Mr Jobs, because it would depend on them to produce security fixes promptly. All DRM does is restrict consumer choice and provide a barrier to entry, says Mr Jobs; without it there would be far more stores and players, and far more innovation. So, he suggests, why not do away with DRM and sell music unprotected? “This is clearly the best alternative for consumers,” he declares, “and Apple would embrace it in a heartbeat.”D. Why the sudden change of heart? Mr Jobs seems chiefly concerned with getting Europe’s regulators off his back. Rather than complaining to Apple about its use of DRM, he suggests, “those unhappy with the current situation should redirect their energies towards persuading the music companies to sell their music DRM-free.” Two and a half of the four big record companies, he helpfully points out, are European-owned. Mr Jobs also hopes to paint himself as a consumer champion. Apple resents accusations that it has become the Microsoft of digital music.E. Apple can afford to embrace open competition in music players and online stores. Consumers would gravitate to the best player and the best store, and at the moment that still means Apple’s. Mr Jobs is evidently unfazed by rivals to the iPod. Since only 3% of the music in a typical iTunes library is protected, most of it can already be used on other players today, he notes. (And even the protected tracks can be burned onto a CD and then re-ripped.) So Apple’s dominance evidently depends far more on branding and ease of use than DRM-related “lock in”.F. The music giants are trying DRM-free downloads. Lots of smaller labels already sell music that way. Having seen which way the wind is blowing, Mr Jobs now wants to be seen not as DRM’s defender, but as a consumer champion who helped in its downfall. Wouldn’t it lead to a surge in piracy? No, because most music is still sold unprotected on CDs, people wishing to steal music already can do so. Indeed, scrapping DRM would probably increase online-music sales by reducing confusion and incompatibility. With the leading online store, Apple would benefit most. Mr Jobs’s argument, in short, is transparently self-serving. It also happens to be right.Notes to Reading Passage 11. low-key:抑制的，受约束的，屈服的2. showman:开展览会的人, 出风头的人物3. unassuming:谦逊的, 不夸耀的, 不装腔作势的4. iPod：(苹果公司出产的)音乐播放器5. iTunes store：(苹果公司出产的)在线音乐商店6. get off pe rson’s back:不再找某人的麻烦，摆脱某人的纠缠7. gravitate:受吸引，倾向于8. unfazed:不再担忧，不被打扰Questions 1-7Do the following statemets reflect the claims of the writer in Reading Passage 1?Write your answer in Boxes 1-7 on your answer sheet.TRUE if the statement reflets the claims of the writerFALSE if the statement contradicts the claims of the writerNOT GIVEN if it is impossbile to say what the writer thinks about this1.

British scientists are preparing to launch trials of a radical new way to fight cancer, which kills tumours by infecting them with viruses like the common cold.2. If successful, virus therapy could eventually form a third pillar alongside radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the standard arsenal against cancer, while avoiding some of the debilitating side-effects.3. Leonard Seymour, a professor of gene therapy at Oxford University, who has been working on the virus therapy with colleagues in London and the US, will lead the trials later this year. Cancer Research UK said yesterday that it was excited by the potential of Prof Seymour’s pioneering techniques.4. One of the country’s leading geneticists, Prof Seymour has been working with viruses that kill cancer cells directly, while avoiding harm to healthy tissue. "In principle, you’ve got something which could be many times more effective than regular chemotherapy," he said.5. Cancer-killing viruses exploit the fact that cancer cells suppress the body’s local immune system. "If a cancer doesn’t do that, the immune system wipes it out. If you can get a virus into a tumour, viruses findthem a very good place to be because there’s no immune system to stop them replicating. You can regard it as the cancer’s Achilles’ heel."6. Only a small amount of the virus needs to get to the cancer. "They replicate, you get a million copies in each cell and the cell bursts and they infect the tumour cells adjacent and repeat the process," said Prof Seymour.7. Preliminary research on mice shows that the viruses work well on tumours resistant to standard cancer drugs. "It’s an interesting possibility that they may have an advantage in killing drug-resistant tumours, which could be quite different to anything we’ve had before."8. Researchers have known for some time that viruses can kill tumour cells and some aspects of the work have already been published in scientific journals. American scientists have previously injected viruses directly into tumours but this technique will not work if the cancer is inaccessible or has spread throughout the body.9. Prof Seymour’s innovative solution is to mask the virus from the body’s i mmune system, effectively allowing the viruses to do what chemotherapy drugs do - spread through the blood and reach tumours wherever they are. The big hurdle has always been to find a way to deliver viruses to tumours via the bloodstream without the body’s immune system destroying them on the way.10. "What we’ve done is make chemical modifications to the virus to puta polymer coat around it - it’s a stealth virus when you inject it," he said.11. After the stealth virus infects the tumour, it replicates, but the copies do not have the chemical modifications. If they escape from the tumour, the copies will be quickly recognised and mopped up by the body’s immune system.12. The therapy would be especially useful for secondary cancers, called metastases, which sometimes spread around the body after the first tumour appears. "There’s an awful statistic of patients in the west ... with malignant cancers; 75% of them go on to die from metastases," said Prof Seymour.13. Two viruses are likely to be examined in the first clinical trials: adenovirus, which normally causes a cold-like illness, and vaccinia, which causes cowpox and is also used in the vaccine against smallpox. Forsafety reasons, both will be disabled to make them less pathogenic in the trial, but Prof Seymour said he eventually hopes to use natural viruses.14. The first trials will use uncoated adenovirus and vaccinia and will be delivered locally to liver tumours, in order to establish whether the treatment is safe in humans and what dose of virus will be needed. Several more years of trials will be needed, eventually also on the polymer-coated viruses, before the therapy can be considered for use in the NHS. Though the approach will be examined at first for cancers that do not respond to conventional treatments, Prof Seymour hopes that one day it might be applied to all cancers.Questions 1-6Do the following statements agree with the information given in the reading passage? For questions 1-6 writeTRUE if the statement agrees with the informationFALSE if the statement contradicts the informationNOT GIVEN if there is no information on this in the passage1.Virus therapy, if successful, has an advantage in eliminatingside-effects.2.Cancer Research UK is quite hopeful about Professor Seymour’s work on the virus therapy.3.Virus can kill cancer cells and stop them from growing again.4.Cancer’s Achilles’ heel refers to the fact that virus may stay safely in a tumor and replicate.5.To infect the cancer cells, a good deal of viruses should be injected into the tumor.6.Researches on animals indicate that virus could be used as a new way to treat drug-resistant tumors.Question 7-9Based on the reading passage, choose the appropriate letter from A-D for each answer.rmation about researches on viruses killing tumor cells can be found(A) on TV(B) in magazines(C) on internet(D) in newspapers8.To treat tumors spreading out in body, researchers try to(A) change the body’ immune system(B) inject chemotherapy drugs into bloodstream.(C) increase the amount of injection(D) disguise the viruses on the way to tumors.9.When the chemical modified virus in tumor replicates, the copies(A) will soon escape from the tumor and spread out.(B) will be wiped out by the body’s immune system.(C) will be immediately recognized by the researchers.(D) will eventually stop the tumor from spreading out.Questions 10-13Complete the sentences below.

You can only use each word once.NB There are more words in the list than spaces so you will not use them all.In the first clinical trials, scientists will try to ……10…… adenovirus and vaccinia, so both the viruses will be less pathogenic thanthe ……11…….These uncoated viruses will be applied directly to certain areas to confirm safety on human beings and the right ……12…… needed.

2019年12月英语a级真题作文答案全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1My Big Family VacationHi there! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. I just got back from the most amazing family vacation ever and I can't wait to tell you all about it!It all started last summer when my mom and dad surprised me and my little brother Michael with the news that we were going to go on a huge trip over Christmas break. They said we could go anywhere we wanted in the whole world! Michael really wanted to go to Disneyland, but I've already been there a bunch of times. I really, really, REALLY wanted to go somewhere new and exciting.After thinking about it for a little while, I decided that I wanted to go to Australia! How cool would it be to go somewhere with kangaroos and koalas and all those neat animals? Michael wasn't too sure about Australia at first because he was scared of spiders (Australia has some really big and ugly ones!). But mom and dad said they could take us to the big citieswhere there aren't too many bugs. That made Michael feel better.So it was decided - we were going to Australia for our big family vacation! We had to save up a lot because the plane tickets were really expensive and we needed enough money for a hotel, food, and fun activities too. Mom and dad let me and Michael do extra chores around the house to earn more allowance. I washed a lot of cars and walked our neighbor's dogs.It took forever, but we finally saved up enough money for the whole trip. The morning we left felt like it would never get here! We had to wake up at 3am just to get to the airport on time for our flight from Boston to Los Angeles. Michael fell back asleep on the plane, but I was wayyyy too excited.After our short layover in LA, we got on a huge plane headed straight for Sydney, Australia! The flight felt like it took about a million years. They kept giving us food and snacks, but I was too anxious to eat much. I just watched movies and played video games on the screen on the back of the seat in front of me.Finally, after what seemed like ages, the pilot announced that we would be landing in Sydney in about 20 minutes. I watched out the window as we descended and I saw theincredible Sydney Opera House for the first time. It was so iconic and beautiful! The sun was rising just as we landed, making the whole city look golden and sparkly.The first few days of our trip, we stayed right in downtown Sydney. We went on a tour of the Opera House, which was just as impressive inside as outside. We also went up to the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge which was scary but had the most amazing views. We took a boat cruise around the harbour too. I tried to spot some whales or sharks but didn't see any (probably for the best!).Sydney was a lot of fun, but I was really excited to start heading out to some of the national parks and wilderness areas. After 3 nights in the city, we rented a car and began driving southwest towards the Blue Mountains.Even the drive itself was exciting! We got to see wild kangaroos hopping right alongside the road. There were also tons of crazy-looking birds that were every color of the rainbow. When we arrived at the Blue Mountains, I couldn't believe how blue the haze over the mountains actually looked. It was so pretty and unlike anything I'd ever seen before.We went on a few really long and challenging hikes through the mountains and valleys. My legs were absolutely exhausted bythe end of each day! But it was so worth it to see all the waterfalls, canyons, and interesting plants and animals. We saw some rock wallabies that were just chilling out on a sunny cliff. Michael was a little scared when we came across snake tracks in the dirt, but our guide said we didn't have to worry about seeing any snakes in the winter.篇2My Favorite ToyHi there! My name is Timmy and I'm in the 4th grade. For this essay, I was asked to write about my favorite toy. That's an easy one for me - it's my teddy bear Mr. Snuggles! I've had Mr. Snuggles ever since I was a tiny little baby. He's gotten pretty worn out over the years from all my cuddles and adventures, but that just makes me love him even more.Mr. Snuggles is a classic brown teddy bear. He's really soft and fluffy, with a cute black nose and bright eyes that always look like they're smiling at you. His fur is kind of matted in some spots from where I've hugged him so much. And one of his ears is a little bent from that time I accidentally dropped him out of my treehouse when I was 6. But those little imperfections just make him extra special to me.I take Mr. Snuggles with me pretty much everywhere I go. He's my trusty sidekick! I bring him to sleepovers, on family vacations, and he even comes with me to the doctor's office so I'm not scared. Sometimes my friends tease me about still carrying around a teddy bear at my age. But I don't care what they think! Mr. Snuggles is my best friend and I'm proud of him.My most vivid memory with Mr. Snuggles is from when I was about 3 years old. It was my first day of preschool and I was feeling really anxious about being away from my parents. I cried and cried and didn't want them to leave me there. But then my mom pulled Mr. Snuggles out of my backpack and handed him to me. As soon as I had him in my arms, I immediately felt better.I stopped crying and gave him a big hug. Having my favorite teddy there with me gave me the courage to stay at school that day. Mr. Snuggles has helped me get through lots of tough times like that over the years.Mr. Snuggles is more than just a toy to me - he's a real friend that I tell all my secrets and problems to. When I'm feeling sad or upset about something, I'll hug him tight and everything seems better. If I'm having trouble falling asleep, snuggling up with Mr. Snuggles always helps me feel safe and relaxed. And when I'mhappy, I like to dance around my room holding him and singing silly songs. He's a great dance partner!I really like how soft and cuddly Mr. Snuggles is. His fur is just the perfect texture for nuzzling my face into when I need some comfort. And he's the ideal size for holding - not too big and not too small, but just right for wrapping my little arms around. I also love that squishy feeling when I give him a big squeeze. It's almost like I can feel the love and happiness oozing out of him and into me.Even though Mr. Snuggles can't actually talk, I like to imagine what he would say if he could. I think he would tell me how proud he is of what a great friend I am to him. He would remind me to always be brave, kind, and curious. And probably most importantly, he would say that no matter what, he'll always be there for me to lean on when I need a pal. Just thinking about those words coming from my oldest and dearest friend makes me feel so happy and loved.As I've gotten older, some people have suggested that I should "grow up" and get rid of Mr. Snuggles since I'm not a little kid anymore. But no way, I could never do that! He means way too much to me. I plan on keeping Mr. Snuggles forever and one day even passing him down to my own children. That way, alittle bit of the love and happiness he's given me can live on and keep getting shared with future generations.To me, Mr. Snuggles represents the importance of keeping a sense of youthful imagination, even as you get older. Sure, he's just a worn out old teddy bear. But he's also a constant reminder that it's okay to be soft, sensitive, and attached to sentimental objects that make you feel good. In a world that's increasingly focused on social media, video games, and technology, it's almost radical to love such a simple, unplugged toy this much. But I don't care - Mr. Snuggles will always hold a special place in my heart.So in conclusion, Mr. Snuggles is hands down my favorite toy of all time! He's been my loyal friend and sidekick through all the ups and downs of my childhood so far. Whenever I'm with him, I feel happy, loved, and comforted no matter what. While some people might think it's babyish to care so much about a tattered old teddy bear, to me he represents all the values that are most important - bravery, kindness, curiosity, and篇3My Big Family TripHi there! My name is Sammy and I'm 10 years old. I just had the most amazing summer vacation with my huge family and I can't wait to tell you all about it! Every few years, my parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins all get together for a gigantic family trip. This year we decided to go to the American Southwest篇4My Favorite ToyHi! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. For this essay, I've been asked to write about my favorite toy. I have lots of toys that I really like, but my absolute favorite is my stuffed rabbit named Floppy. I'm going to tell you all about Floppy and why he's so special to me.I got Floppy for my 5th birthday from my grandparents. When I opened up the big box and saw him for the first time, I loved him right away! He's super soft and fluffy, with long floppy ears and a cute little nose that's always twitching. His fur is white with gray spots. Floppy has big black eyes that always look really friendly and happy.As soon as I got Floppy, he became my very best friend. I took him with me everywhere I went. He came along on all myadventures, like camping trips, sleepovers, playdates at friends' houses, you name it. Wherever I was, Floppy was right there with me tucked under my arm. We were inseparable!I loved snuggling up with Floppy and telling him all my secrets, hopes and dreams. I'd pretend he could understand me and would whisper everything into his long floppy ear. It felt like Floppy was really listening to me and cared about what I had to say. When I was happy, I'd hug him tightly. And when I felt sad or upset, I'd hold Floppy close and let my tears soak into his soft fur. Just being with my bunny friend made me feel so much better.My Floppy has been everywhere with me and seen everything I've gone through over the past 5 years. He was there during my first day of kindergarten when I was a nervous wreck about being away from my parents. Having Floppy by my side gave me the courage and comfort I needed to make it through that scary day. He's come along on every family vacation we've taken, getting passed around the car to keep me and my little brother entertained during long road trips. Floppy was there to celebrate exciting milestones like losing my first tooth and learning to ride a bike. And he's also been a shoulder to lean on during the tough times, like when my fish Goldie passed away orI had to get shots at the doctor. No matter what was happening in my life, good or bad, Floppy was always there with me.After all these years, Floppy is definitely starting to look a little worn and shabby. His fur is matted in spots from all the hugging and there are holes in a couple of places from being dragged around everywhere. His ears are floppy as ever but one of them is ripped from the time my dog Buster got a hold of him. And his sweet little bunny face is a bit smudged and faded. But none of that matters to me one bit! Floppy's ragged, well-loved appearance just makes him even more perfect and special. It shows how much of our lives we've been through together side-by-side.I'm getting older now and don't play with stuffed animals quite as much these days. But Floppy will always have a permanent spot on my bed or a place on my shelf. He's my most prized possession and means the absolute world to me. Floppy isn't just a toy, he's my oldest friend who has been by my side since I was a tiny kid. He's gotten me through so much and holds the memories of my entire childhood. I'll keep Floppy forever and one day I'll tell my own kids about my lifelong bunny companion and what an important part of my life he was. Sothat's why Floppy the stuffed rabbit is my most favorite, most loved toy ever!篇5My English A-Level Exam AdventureHi there! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. I just took the big English A-Level exam in December 2019 and I wanted to tell you all about my exciting adventure!It all started a few months ago when my teacher Mrs. Robertson told our class that we would be taking an important test called the A-Levels. She said it was a really hard exam that students take at the end of secondary school. I was confused because I'm still in elementary school, but she explained that we were just going to practice taking it to get ready for the real thing later.At first, I wasn't too worried about it. I'm pretty good at English and I thought it would be just like the regular tests we take at school. Boy, was I wrong! As we got closer to the exam date, Mrs. Robertson gave us lots of practice papers and mock exams to work on. The questions were super tricky and covered all sorts of things I had never learned before.There were reading comprehension passages that seemed to go on forever with the most confusing vocabulary words. The writing prompts asked us to analyze complicated ideas and construct persuasive arguments. Even the grammar section had rules I didn't fully understand yet. I started to get really nervous that I wouldn't do well on this A-Level test.But my parents and teacher kept encouraging me, saying it was just good practice and not to worry too much about my score. They told me to just try my best and learn what I could from the experience. I took a deep breath and decided they were right - no need to get too stressed out!Finally, the big day arrived - December 14th, 2019. Our whole class showed up extra early at school that morning feeling a mix of excitement and nerves. The exam was being held in the big auditorium instead of our normal classroom. It felt so official and grown-up!Once we got started, I was relieved to find that some of the questions weren't actually as hard as I thought they would be from all the practice. Using the strategies Mrs. Robertson taught us really paid off. But there were definitely still some parts that made me say "Huh??" and want to pull my hair out.After what felt like an eternity of reading, writing, and analyzing every little grammar rule, the exam was finally over. My hand was cramping from writing essays for hours, but I had a huge smile on my face. I was just so proud of myself for pushing through and not giving up, even when things got really difficult.While I'm sure I didn't get a top score worthy of getting into university, the experience of taking such a challenging test at my age was amazing practice. I learned how to manage my time, organize my thoughts, and not freak out over the hard parts. I'm feeling a lot more prepared now for my actual A-Level exams when the time comes.And who knows, maybe I'll even be an A-Level expert by the time I'm a teenager! Anyway, that's my story of being one of the youngest people ever to take the intense English A-Levels. I had a blast and can't wait for my next academic adventure. Thanks for reading!篇6My Awesome Family VacationWoohoo, summer vacation was finally here! No more staying up late doing homework or waking up super early to catch thebus. I was so excited for three entire months of pure freedom and fun.My parents had promised me and my little brother Alex that we would go on an amazing family vacation this summer. They wouldn't tell us where we were going though, they wanted to keep it a surprise! I tried guessing over and over but they wouldn't give me any hints.A few days before we left, my mom told us to start packing our suitcases. "Pack for warm weather," she said with a sneaky grin. Hmm, that didn't really narrow it down much since it's summer and warm everywhere. I stuffed my suitcase full oft-shirts, shorts, sandals, and my favorite teddy bear of course. I could never go anywhere without Mr. Snuggles!Finally the morning came when we loaded up the car and headed to the airport. An airport? Did this mean we were going on an airplane to some other country? How exciting! I loved traveling but had never been on a really long plane ride before.After going through security and everything, we finally boarded our huge plane. Alex and I raced to get window seats so we could see outside. The plane took off and we were soaring high up above the clouds. Every time I looked out the window, the view was incredibly beautiful.Eventually we landed and made our way through the busy airport terminal. That's when I saw a sign that said "Bienvenidos a México!" Mexico?! We were going to Mexico for our vacation? This was going to be the best trip ever!We took a shuttle from the airport to our amazing resort right on the beach. I had never seen an ocean in real life before. It was enormous, stretching out as far as I could see. The water was the most brilliant shades of blue and green. I couldn't wait to swim in it!Our hotel room had a big balcony with a view overlooking the whole beach and ocean. At night we could hear the relaxing sounds of the waves crashing on the shore. During the day, the balcony was the perfect place to work on my tan.We spent our days on the beach building sandcastles, splashing in the ocean waves, and just relaxing under the hot sun. The beach had tons of fun activities like jet skiing, parasailing, banana boats, and more. One day we went snorkeling and got to see amazing tropical fish and coral up close.Another day we went on a tour to some ancient ruins from the Maya civilization. Our guide taught us all about the history and showed us around the incredible pyramids and temples. It was like stepping back in time thousands of years. I couldn'tbelieve people had built those huge structures completely by hand, before modern technology and machinery!We also had to do some souvenir shopping while in Mexico. The markets had the coolest arts, crafts, clothes, toys, and more. My favorite souvenirs I bought were a sombrero, some maracas, and a beautiful hand-woven blanket.And obviously we couldn't go to Mexico without trying the amazing food! We had tacos, enchiladas, tamales, churros, and more. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. I had never realized how delicious and flavorful Mexican cuisine is.Evenings at our resort were fun too. They had shows with music, dancing, and entertainment. One night they had a massive pool party with games and a DJ. Even my parents had a blast dancing along with me and Alex to the lively music.All too soon, our wonderful vacation was coming to an end. I was really sad to leave beautiful Mexico and go back home. On our last day, we spent as much time as possible on the beach soaking up the sun, sand, and surf.Finally it was time to pack up our suitcases again and head to the airport. As our plane took off, I stared wistfully out thewindow at Mexico becoming a tiny speck in the distance. I definitely shed a few tears saying goodbye.When we landed back home, I was happy to see my friends and my room again. But I also felt different somehow. More grown up and worldly after experiencing a new country and culture. I had learned and seen so many amazing new things.My family vacation to Mexico was the best trip ever! I'll never forget the incredible experiences, sights, sounds, and flavors. I made so many wonderful memories that I'll cherish forever. I really hope my parents take us on another amazing adventure like that again soon. Maybe next time we can go to Hawaii or Costa Rica? A kid can dream!。

雅思考试阅读模拟试题及答案解析六1. A European spacecraft took off today to spearhead the search for another "Earth" among the stars.2. The Corot space telescope blasted off aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan shortly after 2.20pm.3. Corot, short for convection rotation and planetary transits, is the first instrument capable of finding small rocky planets beyond the solar system. Any such planet situated in the right orbit stands a good chance of having liquid water on its surface, and quite possibly life, although a leading scientist involved in the project said it was unlikely to find "any little green men".4. Developed by the French space agency, CNES, and partnered by the European Space Agency (ESA), Austria, Belgium, Germany, Brazil and Spain, Corot will monitor around 120,000 stars with its 27cm telescope from a polar orbit 514 miles above the Earth. Over two and a half years, it will focus on five to six different areas of the sky, measuring the brightness of about 10,000 stars every 512 seconds.5. "At the present moment we are hoping to find out more about the nature of planets around stars which are potential habitats. We are looking at habitable planets, not inhabited planets. We are not going to find any little green men," Professor Ian Roxburgh, an ESA scientist who has been involved with Corot since its inception, told the BBC Radio 4 Today programme.6. Prof Roxburgh said it was hoped Corot would find "rocky planets that could develop an atmosphere and, if they are the right distance from their parent star, they could have water".7. To search for planets, the telescope will look for the dimming of starlight caused when an object passes in front of a star, known as a "transit". Although it will take more sophisticated space telescopes planned in the next 10 years上一篇英语：雅思考试阅读模拟试题及答案下一篇英语：没有了查看更多关于雅思模拟题的文章网友同时还浏览了：雅思考试阅读模拟试题及答案Now you knowNew weapon to fight cancerNext Year MarksSun s fickle heartWashingto confirm the presence of an Earth-like planet with oxygen and liquid water, Corot will let scientists know where to point their lenses.8. Measurements of minute changes in brightness will enable scientists to detect giant Jupiter-like gas planets as well as small rocky ones. It is the rocky planets - that could be no bigger than about twice the size of the Earth - which will cause the most excitement. Scientists expect to find between 10 and 40 of these smaller planets.9. Corot will also probe into stellar interiors by studying the acoustic waves that ripple across the surface of stars, a technique called "asteroseismology".10. The nature of the ripples allows astronomers to calculate a star’s precise mass, age and chemical composition.11. "A planet passing in front of a star can be detected by the fall in light from that star. Smalloscillations of the star also produce changes in the light emitted, which reveal what the star is made of and how they are structured internally. This data will provide a major boost to our understanding of how stars form and evolve," Prof Roxburgh said.12. Since the discovery in 1995 of the first "exoplanet" - a planet orbiting a star other than the Sun - more than 200 others have been found by ground-based observatories.13. Until now the usual method of finding exoplanets has been to detect the "wobble" their gravity imparts on parent stars. But only giant gaseous planets bigger than Jupiter can be found this way, and they are unlikely to harbour life.14. In the 2010s, ESA plans to launch Darwin, a fleet of four or five interlinked space telescopes that will not only spot small rocky planets, but analyse their atmospheres for signs of biological activity.15. At around the same time, the US space agency, Nasa, wi上一篇英语：雅思考试阅读模拟试题及答案下一篇英语：没有了查看更多关于雅思模拟题的文章网友同时还浏览了：雅思考试阅读模拟试题及答案Now you knowNew weapon to fight cancerNext Year MarksSun s fickle heartWashingll launch Terrestrial Planet Finder, another space telescope designed to locate Earth-like planets.
