B.He sees the world with his ears.C.He has traveled across the world. D.He has a variety of hobbies.29.What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 4?A.Material. B.Framework. C.Style. D.Color.30.What does the study from researchers at the University of Western Ontario discover?A.The way Kish makes a noise is unique. B.The quality of the voices plays a key role.C.The blind’s brain reacts to returned noises. D.It requires long-time practice to use echolocation.31.Which can best describe Kish based on the last paragraph?A.Optimistic. B.Devoted. C.Energetic. D.Helpful.DTiny tubes and filaments(丝状物) in some Canadian rock appear to be the oldest known fossils(化石),giving new support for some ideas about how life began,a new study says.The features(地理特征) are mineralized remains of what appear to be bacteria that lived some 3.77 billion to 4.28 billion years ago,the scientists said.That would be older than some other rock features found in Greenland,which were considered to be fossils last August.The new results come from examining rock found along the eastern shore of Hudson Bay in northern Quebec.The filaments and tubes,made up of iron oxide called hematite,appeared within a rock type called jasper.Matthew Dodd of University College London,an author of the study published Wednesday by Nature,said the living things lived in the seafloor where water was heated by a volcano.Since the fossils are nearly as old as Earth,which formed some 4.5 billion years ago,the finding supports previous indications that life may have begun in such an environment,he said.He and colleagues presented several lines of evidence to support the idea that the filaments and tubes are signatures of past life.But two experts who’ve previously reported similar findings said they’re not convinced.“I would say they are not fossils,”Martin J.Van Kranendonk of the University of New South Wales in Australia,who reported the Greenland findings last year,wrote in an email.The paper’s evidence for a biological origin falls short,he said.Abigail Allwood,a NASA geologist,said the authors have produced “one of the most detailed cases yet made” for evidence of life in rocks older than 3.5 billion years.But “it’s an extraordinary claim to make and you do need extraordinary evidence,” she said.32.According to Matthew and his colleagues,the filaments and tubes .A.stand for a rock type B.are as old as Earth C.represent human origin D.are early-life forms 33.What do Matthew,Martin and Abigail have in common?A.They are working in the universities. B.They accept the Greenland findings.C.They have been studying rock features. D.They have discovered the oldest known fossils.34.How does Martin feel about the new study?A.It confirmed the biological origin. B.It needs more to convince people.C.It ignored the Greenland findings. D.It shouldn’t have copied his evidence.35.What’s Abigail Allwood’s attitude towards Matthew’s finding?A.Objective. B.Indifferent. C.Vague. D.Disapproving.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Analyzing the 2020 National College Entrance Exam (NCEE) English Composition The 2020 National College Entrance Exam (NCEE), commonly known as the Gaokao, is an annual milestone for millions of Chinese students. Among the various subjects tested, the English composition often garners significant attention, not only for its weightage in the overall score but also for its ability to reflect students' linguistic proficiency and critical thinking skills. This article aims to delve into the 2020 NCEE English composition, examining its themes, challenges, and strategies used by top-scoring students.**Theme Analysis**The theme of the 2020 NCEE English composition washighly topical and relevant to contemporary society, focusing on the intersection of technology and human life. Specifically, it asked students to discuss the impact of technology on daily life, highlighting both the benefitsand challenges it poses. This theme encouraged students to think critically about technology's role in modern society and consider its ethical, social, and personal implications.**Challenges Faced**One of the primary challenges faced by students was the breadth and depth of the topic. Technology is a vast field, touching almost every aspect of our lives. This meant that students needed to narrow down their focus and choose a specific angle from which to approach the topic. Additionally, balancing between discussing the benefits and challenges of technology was another challenge, as students needed to ensure that both sides were equally represented. **Strategies Used by Top-Scorers**Top-scoring students demonstrated several strategies that contributed to their success. Firstly, they chose a focused and specific angle, such as the impact of technology on education or healthcare, allowing them to delve deeper into the topic. Secondly, they used a variety of examples and evidence to support their arguments, making their compositions more persuasive and convincing. Lastly, they maintained a balanced tone throughout their compositions, acknowledging both the positive and negative aspects of technology.**Conclusion**The 2020 NCEE English composition presented a thought-provoking topic that required students to demonstrate their understanding of technology and its impact on society. Top-scoring students excelled by narrowing down their focus, providing evidence to support their arguments, and maintaining a balanced tone. These strategies are valuable for any student preparing for the Gaokao or any other English composition task, as they help to craft a coherent and well-argued essay.**分析2020年全国一卷英语作文**2020年全国一卷的高考对于数百万中国学生而言,是一个年度的里程碑。

The advantages of taking a gap year are obvious. For one thing, it provides relaxation after tiring schooling. For another thing, with a gap year spent in other places or countries, students can experience foreign cultures and broaden their horizon.As the saying goes, “Every coin has two sides.” After a gap year, students may forget what they’ve learned and fail to carry on the following schooling efficiently. Besides, a year outside school requires parents’ extra financial support.As far as I’m concerned, if I had a gap year, I’d choose to teach Chi nese in a foreign country. By doing this, I not only could learn more about my native language, but also would be able to introduce our cultures to the outside world.。
