For him, the sky’s the limit, but it wasn’t always that way.The24-year-old college student was raised by a single father who worked three different jobs, breaking his back. But, despite his father’s best efforts,financial burdens steadily mounted. Staton’s study had suffered but he kept pushing himself forward. He said growing up was tough and he used to struggle in school. One teacher even suggested he switch to a special education class.But with help from a free tutor, Staton’s grades improved. He continued to improve academically while training to be a professional boxer in high school. However, his choices for college dwindled after suffering an injury, which ruined the chances of him turning professional in sports.He was rejected from every school he applied to.So to help support his family, Staton took a job collecting trash at a local sanitation company, which he said changed his life in ways he never imagined. “Most of my coworkers were formerly imprisoned. So, it caught me by surprise how much the people on the bottom of the society uplifted me and really wanted me to make something of myself,” he told the reporter. “They encouraged me to reapply to college. They had nothing but uplifting words for me and my future.”Through persistence, he took the LSAT and applied to nine schools—getting accepted to five. Ultimately, he decided to commit to Harvard Law School—and he’ll never forget all the people who helped him get there. “Throughout this time, people ask me, ‘How did you do it?’ it’s more so how could I not do it when everyone is breaking their backs for me, and pushing me to win.” Staton said. “When you have a support system, you want to give them your best shot. Because as much as you’re investing into yourself, you have others investing into you too.”4. What can we know about Staton from paragraph 2?A. He received special care from his teacher.B. He used to have poor academic performanceC. He worked three jobs to help support his familyD. He lost sight of his goal due to family difficulties5. What does the underlined word “dwindled” in paragraph 3 probab ly mean?A. Decreased.B. Change.C. Appeared.D. Continued.6. What made Staton surprised while working as a trash collector?A. The mixed backgrounds of his coworkersB. The misunderstanding about garbage menC. The strong encouragement from his coworkersD. The misfortune of people at the bottom of society7. What can we infer from the text?A. Courage is resistance to fear and painB.Success comes from sweat and supportC.Achievements are going from failure to failure.D.Progress takes place outside the comfort zoneCTheCOVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected older people around the world, causing destructive blows to their physical health, their mental health and their livelihoods. Even before the pandemic, reports showed that many older adults were already more socially isolated and experienced more loneliness than the rest of the population. Corona virus control measures, including physical distancing and restrictions on social gatherings, increase the risk for social isolation and loneliness,The negative effects of ageism —the discrimination of older adults — enhance existing inequalities and make these challenges even more difficult toovercome.Ageism tends to paint all older adults as the same, The reality is that older persons are diverse and have several different identities, They are more than their age, Undervaluing the economic contributions of older adults is another form of ageism. In truth,many older people are essential to society and contribute to the economy in terms of both paid work and more importantly, less visible unpaid work such as care-giving and volunteer work. The assumption that all older people are dependent is not only inaccurate but also harmful.How to protect the rights and dignity of older adults? The right care at the right time in the right place is crucial. Virtual solutions can help older adults get the help they need, in terms of social connections and access to services. But first, we must overcome the “digital divide”. Older adults di sproportionately have difficulty accessing technology and their digital literacy（素养）tends to be low.We must address the accessibility gap to deliver the support required for them.In addition, we must remember how much older adults still have to contribute to society. The best solutions encourage social participation and connectedness and raise a sense of belonging. Social connections between generations are vital. There is so much we can learn from each other. There’s more work to be done, but removing our unfair judgment and acknowledging the importance of older adults in our economies and societies is an important start.8. What is the first paragraph mainly about？A. Lifestyles of older adults.B. Conflicts between generations.C. Problems of the aging society.D. Challenges older adults face.9. What can be inferred about older adults according to paragraph 2?A. They make a great contribution to society.B. They are too dependent on their childrenC. They do more unpaid work than paid one.D. They gain wide public recognition for their work.10.Which of the following can help older adults live a better life according to the author?A. Bridging generation gapB. Offering digital trainingC. Providing high-paying jobsD. Sharing the latest digital phone.11. To help older people, the text suggests people start by ____.A. helping them involve in societyB. building closer connection with themC. learning more knowledge from themD. stopping discriminating against themDA handful of old mobile phones lay in a grey bucket. These outdated devices,which are about to be chopped into thousands of pieces, will be given a second life as recycled e-waste. But many phones won’t.According to the latest estimates, the world gets rid of approximately 50 million metric tonnes of e-waste annually. E-waste is full of dangerous materials that can cause damage to human health and the environment if not managed properly. But only 20 percent of global e-waste is recycled. The rest ends up in landfill, or burned— or is not recycled at all.And yet, Switzerland is a good example of how to deal with the growing environmental issue. The country collects and recycles roughly 75 percent of this discarded material. This is thanks to a strong voluntary “take-back” system, where consumers can take e-waste to a recycling collection point or any electronic shop retailer. A recycling station can be found within at most 300 meters from any residential area. Everyone gets involved. Switzerland’s e-waste system is unique and can’t be easily copied —due to a strong recycling culture within the country.However,Switzerland faces the same global challenges as every nation. The built-in lithium ion batteries aren’t easy to take out. The only way to remove these potentially dangerous components is with a bar and hammer. This poses a significant risk to those handling the goods. As such, producers need to be more transparent（信息透明的）and indicate better, where the harmful substances are, and how they can be removed.Once the battery is removed, e-waste is sorted into different component parts—metals, plastics and other materials. Roughly 70 percent of the device can be recycled. The material that cannot be recycled is used for other purposes like construction material or is burned to generate energy. Mobile phones—from a material perspective, from a value perspective, and also from an environmental impact perspective –are very important.For the past 15years, Switzerland has been actively encouraging and supporting electrical waste disposal practices. They are happy to share their knowledge, experience,lessons learned, and they are happy if other people pick up on it.12.What can we know about the global e-waste?A. Only 20% of the e-waste is useful.B. It is becoming an environmental problem.C. Most of it has been given a second life.D. It has been the major cause of pollution.13.What can we infer about the “take-back” system in Switzerland?A. It is unique and easy to copy.B. It features many devoted volunteers.C. It gains great support and understanding.D. It is complicated and not easily accessible.14. To help recycle e-waste, what are mobile phone producers advised to do?A. Remove harmful substances.B. Use less dangerous components.C. Offer customers free bars and hammers.D. Help make the removal easier and safer.15.What is the text mainly about?A. How to fight against e-waste.B. Why e-waste gets out of control.C. How to be champion of recycling.D. How to lead an eco-friendly lifestyle.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

(A)A Film For Children: Frozenare supposed to have. The first is wonderful music. The second is a bit of danger and darkness in the songs. The third is a conservative message wrapped up in a traditional happy ending. Loosely inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s story The Snow Queen, Frozen initially promises to deliver on all three.We open with two tiny princess playing together in their parents’ palace. Elsa is entertaining her younger sister Anna by shooting ice and snow from her hand, creating a secret playground. As the girls grow up, the film properly begins, with icy blonde Elsa(voiced by Idina Menzel) charged never to use her powers or show the world who she really is.

I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days.Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time.

The path to knighthood began at the age of seven, when a vassal(封臣）sent his son to the lord’s house to become a page as part of his training. For seven years, a page was cared for by the women of the house, who taught him many important things. At the age of fourteen, the page became a squire, a personal attendant(随从）to a knight. From the knight he learned riding and all the skills of war, as well as hunting, hawking, and other sports. In theory, the squire could be knighted on the battlefield for exceptional bravery, but this event was much rarer than Hollywood would have made us believe.When he was judged ready(generally between the ages of 18 and 21), the squire was knighted. He had to promise seriously to the knightly code which asked him to “protect the weak, defenseless, and helpless, and fight for the general welfare of all”. This code was rarely lived up to, but it remained the standard for proper behaviour among the noble people for centuries.Battles were usually small affairs, fought between the knights of different lords. The object in a fight wasn’t necessarily to kill a competitor, but to catch him and ask his lord to pay for him.Introduced from France in the 12th century, tournaments were an important part of military and social life. These “war games” contained individual contests, and group fights. Lances and swords were not sharp, but tournaments were where fame was made, so the fighting was hard and dangerous. Prizes were given to the winners, and some knights, such as famous William Marshall, made money in the tournaments. By the 14th century, tournaments became exciting fairs complete with singing, dancing, and feasting which might last for several days.9.What was required to become a knight in England in the Middle Ages?A.Learning many important things in a school.B.Being born by the women of the house.C.Being sent to the lord’s house at 14.D.Being the son of a noble man.10.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?A.A squire had to be exceptionally brave.B.A squire didn’t really go to a battlefield.C.A squire was rarely knighted on the battlefield.D.Hollywood makes people know well about a squire.11.What can we learn about the knightly code?A.It aimed to build a better society.B.Knights never behaved according to it.C.Knights were asked to fight for their own benefits.D.It was the standard for British people’s behavior for long.12.Why would knights fight fiercely in tournaments?A.Because it was a great way to please the lord.B.Because winning would bring great honor.C.Because lords paid a lot of money for it.D.Because they must fight for their lives.(D)Robots that can chat, find misplaced glasses, draw aeroplanes and play with your children are attracting thousands of visitors during an exposition in Tokyo as Japanadapts to changes in society. Robots, such as the sound-sensitive Chapit, answer simple questions and even joke with people to help them fight loneliness and stay alert at an old age.Japan has one of the world’s fastest-ageing societies and the government predicts that by 2050 the proportion of people over 65 will reach 40 percent. “Many older people in Japan live alone and have no one to talk to,” said Kazuya Kitamura, a representative of the exposition organizer. “Communication robots accompany people that don’t mind listening to the same stories over and over again.”“Personal Mobility Robot”, equipped with four cameras and a sensor to recognize the user’s center of gravity, is designed to help the elderly move around without pressing buttons, using joysticks(操纵杆）or rotating wheels as in traditional wheelchairs.The robot can also help find misplaced glasses by identifying them with a sensor.Other robots, such as the award-winning “DiGRO” can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children. The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictures, keeping children company while parents are working.While Chapit, a relatively simple robot, managed to attract a corporate partner, many researchers, such as Kiyoshi Matsumoto, a professor at the University of Tokyo, struggle to attract sponsors for more expensive projects.“We have developed a robot that can assist many people, but we still haven’t found a sponsor,” said Matsumoto, who added that the cost of the machine, if mass-produced, would be comparable to that of a car. “In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project.” he said.13.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.many children lack love from parentsB.robots helpful to the old will be in great demandC.robots are the most useful to childrenD.robots do better than people in health care14.It is difficult to find sponsors for robots because ______.A.Japan is suffering economy depressionB.the robots are of poor designC.the production of robots costs a lotD.the future market is worrying15.What is the author’s attitude towards the robots referred to?A.UnsatisfiedB.DoubtfulC.FavorableD.Regretful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。

2021新高考版高考英语小题优练冲刺训练（三）阅读理解+七选五阅读+完型填空+语法填空Passage AThe start of the U.S. Atlantic hurricane season is just over two weeks away and forecasters are expecting particularly high activity this year. With warmer than usual conditions expected in the North Atlantic this summer, meteorologists (气象学者) have predicted that the season could produce eight or more hurricanes.While forecasters cannot predict how many hurricanes — if any — will make landfall, the potential for dangerous storms to strike the southern and eastern coasts brings an additional problem for authorities(专家) already struggling with the COVID-19.Experts say that the COVID-19 is affecting the capabilities of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and other organizations involved in responding to natural disasters.Retired U-S. Army Lieutenant General Jeffrey Talley, who now leads global efforts on disaster management at IBM's Center for the Business of Government, said that with FEMA and other authorities engaged with responding to the COVID-19, resources will be limited if a hurricane strikes.“When we look at a disaster…I think of it in terms of how we prepare for, respond to and recover from those types of events,” Talley said “Right now we’re in the middle of the response of COVTD-19. None of us are really sure how long it's going to last and how the response to disasters is going to be different, say, two months from now, six months from now, so on and so forth,” he said.According to Talley, the COVID-19 could complicate the response to a hurricane by interrupting the flow of emergency supplies to areas where they are urgently needed at key moments.Social distancing and stay-at-home orders will also force authorities along the south and east coast to rethink how they manage people who must leave their homes in the event of a disaster. While many states are already lifting some lockdown restrictions, social distancing will still be important for many months to come.1．According to Talley, how could COVID-19 influence the response to a hurricane?A．More people will leave home to fight against a hurricane.B．Rescue materials might not reach disaster areas sometimes.C．Lockdown can greatly reduce damage and injury.D．The pandemic (流行病) makes it harder to predict hurricanes.2．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．People throughout the country no longer need to stay at home.B．The state governments are confident about dealing with hurricanes.C．Authorities along the coasts will stick to the former orders.D．It is necessary to keep social distance in the coming months.3．What is the best title for the text?A．More Destructive Hurricanes to Be ExpectedB．More Difficult to Forecast Hurricanes ComingC．COVED-19 to Worsen Hurricane ResponseD．Social Distancing Needed in Coming MonthsPassage BAs we know, mental health is in a worse situation among young people globally. 1 This not only lowers quality of life, but has a negative impact on a teenager's growth. To get at the root causes of this decline, a group of scientists conducted a study and found the combination of high screen time and low "green time” greatly affects mental well-being. Children nowadays spend more time than ever in front of electronic devices.The average daily screen time for 8-to-18-year-olds was 7. 5 hours in the U. S. ten years ago. As the study states," This greatly goes above guidelines of 2 hours per clay. " Now the condition is worse by the fact that so many schools are using technology to teach classes. Indeed some screen time can promote connections and enable tasks to be done more efficiently. 2 In addition to troubling nerve stimulation, too much screen time takes the place of important protective behaviors for mental health such as physical activity, getting adequate sleep, and academic activities.The study authors suggest that green time could act as a cure for screen time, essentially balancing its negative effects. 3 The attention systems can be restored in natural environment when they are worn out, because they employ involuntary attention there, which is not tiring oreffortful.4 The great nature could potentially function as a psychological well-being promotion intervention(干预)children and teenagers in a high-lech era. This knowledge could be a guide to public health departments that are struggling to restore happiness and cheer in countless anxious teenagers.5 .A. Teenagers urgently need more green lime.B. Screen-based technology makes kids less attentive.C. The frequency of depression and anxiety is increasing.D. There are many more ways, nevertheless, in which it is harmful.E. It suggests more outdoor projects like building parks could be fundamental.F. Paying constant directed attention to screens can raise directed attention tiredness.G. This study highlights that nature may currently be a potential public health resource.Passage CA little boy almost thought of himself as the most 1 child in the world because he was born with a disability. He seldom played with his classmates; and when 2 by his teacher to answer questions, he always lowered his head and responded with 3 .One spring, the boy's father 4 some saplings (树苗) from the neighbor. He told his children to plant a sapling each person in front of the house, promising that a nice gift will go to 5 grows the best tree. The boy also wanted to get his father's gift. But seeing his brothers and sisters watering the trees merrily, anyhow, an idea suddenly 6 him: he hoped the tree he planted would 7 soon.Leaving his tree unattended for several days, the little boy went to see his tree again. He was 8 to find it grew greener among the surrounding trees. His father kept his promise, bought the little boy his favorite gift and told him that he had the 9 to become an outstanding botanist (植物学家) when he grew up.Since then, the little boy 10 became optimistic. One day, the little boy couldn't sleep on the bed, expecting the coming festival. Looking at the bright moonlight and fireworks outside the window, he suddenly decided to go out to see the 11 .

AOutlookFeaturing the same 6.1-inch display size as the iPhone 11 and iPhone XR before it, iPhone 12 is making the transition from an LCD screen to OLED. With flat aluminum （铝）sides for an overall look, it more closely matches the iPad Pro and iPad Air. Aside from the flat sides, iPhone 12 still largely resembles the iPhone 11. Around back, it has two cameras housed in a glass circle, which makes for a nice contrast with the rest of the smooth back panel. To avoid being broken or cracked when dropped, iPhone 12 is covered with what Apple describes as a "ceramic （陶瓷）shield”.CameraThe iPhone 12 has a 12-megapixel f/1.6 main camera — the fastest aperture （光圈）in any iPhone yet. The low-light performance has improved, and its advancements in computational photography to maximize detail and dynamic range has also been achieved. The front camera on the iPhone 12 is gaining Night Mode, as well. ProcessoriPhone 12 is powered by the company's new A14 Bionic processor, which is the first smart phone chip built on a 5nm process, leading to improved performance and efficiency. It's claimed that the processor is up to 50 percent faster than the leading chips in Android smart phones.Wireless ChargingTo improve wireless charging on the iPhone 12, it contains a “MagSafe“ system with built-in magnets to guarantee that the iPhone 12 properly lines up with the MagSafe accessories （配件）.1. What is the size of iPhone 12?A. About 6.1 -inch as that of iPhone Max.B. The same size as iPad Pro.C. Bigger than that of iPhone 11.D. As big as iPhone 11.2. What's the function of the "MagSafe" system?A. To carry out the wired charging of iPhone 12.B. To perfectly match the iPad Pro and iPad Air.C.

A ceramic shield helps protect against breaking and cracking.4. What would be the title of the passage?A. iPhone 11.B. iPad Pro.C. iPad Air.D. iPhone 12.BMy favorite novel is Albert Camus's The Plague（鼠疫）. It was published in 1947, after Word War II.On the surface, it's a story about an Algerian coastal town threatened by a mysterious plague. But the symbolic idea works on the concrete presentation of a metaphysical （形而上学的）problem, which is the cruel fact of suffering. Like the plague, it's just a thing that happens in the world whether we want it to or not. Camus's novel asks if we can think of suffering not as an individual burden but as a shared experience — and maybe turn it into something positive.The key is to recognize the universality of suffering. A plague is an extraordinary event and the horror it results in is extraordinary, too. But suffering is anything but extraordinary. Every day you leave the house, something terrible could happen. The same is true for all. All of us arc subject to forces over which we have no control.A pandemic （大流彳亍病）forces us to think about our responsibilities to the people around us. The hero of The Plague is a committed doctor named Rieux. From the very beginning, Rieux devotes himself to resisting the plague that united its victims. Each character in the story is defined （刻画）by what they do when the plague comes. No one escapes it, but those who reduce the suffering of others are the most fulfilled. The only villains are those who cannot see beyond themselves. The plague, for these people, is either an excuse to flee or an opportunity to make profits. Because they can't see that their condition is shared, a spirit of unity is completely foreign to them. And that blindness makes community impossible.At the very end of The Plague, Camus stated his philosophy that the struggle against suffering is never over for good. The plague will return, and so will everything else that upsets humans. But the point of the book is that a shared struggle is what makes community possible in the first place.A pandemic, terrible though it is, highlights our mutual interdependence in a way that only tragedy can. The beauty of The Plague is that it asks the reader to map the lessons of the pandemic onto everyday life. The principles that drive the hero, Rieux, are the same principles that make every society worthwhile —understanding, love and unity.If we learn these lessons, in a moment of crisis, we'll all be better off on the other side of it.5. What is the symbolic idea of The Plague?A. An individual burden.B. A positive experience.C. A universal suffering.D. An extraordinary event.6. What does the underlined word mean?A. The blind.B. Businessmen.C. Foreign victims.D. Wrongdoers. 7. According to the author, what can we learn from The Plague?A. We should think of unity more than individual calculation.B. The pandemic cannot be defeated as it will make a comeback.C. Understanding, love and unity rid the society of struggle.D. We'll be better off in a moment of crisis if listening to a doctor.8. What is the purpose of this text?A. To introduce a book.B. To solve a social problem.C. To remember a writer.D. To express an opinion.CFor years, the U.S. has experienced a shortage of registered nurses. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that while the number of nurses will increase by 19 percent by 2022, demand will grow faster than supply, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs by then.So what's the solution? Robots.Japan is ahead of the curve when it comes to this trend. Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio, a robotic medical cart that can make hospital rounds, deliver medications and other items. It follows a specific individual, such as a doctor or nurse, who can use it to record and access patient data. This type of robot will likely to be one of the first to be implemented in hospitals because it has fairly minimal patient contact.A robot's appearance affects its ability to successfully interact with humans, which is why the RIKEN-TRI Collaboration Center for Human-Interactive Robot Research decided to develop a robotic nurse called Acntroid F. It is so human-like that some patients may not know the difference. This conversational robot companion has cameras in its eyes, which allow it to track patients and use appropriate facial expressions and body language in its interactions. During a month-long hospital trial, researchers asked 70 patients how they felt being around the robot and “only three or four said they didn't like having it around”.It's important to note that robotic nurses don't decide courses of treatment or make diagnoses. Instead, they perform routine and laborious tasks, freeing nurses up to attend to patients with immediate needs. This is one industry where it seems the interaction of robots will lead to collaboration, not replacement.9. What does the author say about Japan?A. It ranks top in future robotics technology.B. It takes the lead in offering robotic nursing.C. It is in desperate need of registered nurses.D. It provides the best medication for the elderly.10. Which of the following best explains “implemented“ underlined in Paragraph 3?A. cancelled.B. constructed.C. improved.D. applied.11. What do we know about the robot Actroid F?A. It has no difference from a human nurse.B. It gets favorable remarks from all the patients.C. It interacts with patients like a human companion.D. It uses body language even more effectively than words.12. What is the author's attitude towards robotic nurses?A. SkepticalB. PositiveC. CriticalD. IndifferentDA doctor named Chepurnov from Siberia conducted a controversial coronavirus immunity test after surviving COVID-19 in March. The 68-year-old Russian doctor spent time with coronavirus-positive patients without wearing a mask to see if he could get a second COVID-19 infection. The doctor was infected a second time and experienced a worse COVID-19 case than he had previously.This unusual coronavirus immunity test can easily be filed under the “only in Russia" section of COVID-19news. Only in Russia was a coronavirus vaccine approved for mass use before any scientific research was shared with the world and before the drug cleared the Phase 3 trial. The story gets even crazier, considering the doctor's age. At 68-years-old, Alexander Chepurnov happens to be the kind of COVID-19 patient most at risk of developing a severe case.Even so, Chepurnov's controversial experiment isn't without worth. It's certainly the kind of experiment that others wouldn't necessarily approve of, especially in western countries. But it's the kind of experiment that can yield results — and Chepurnov did get his wish. He was reinfected with COVID-19 within six months from the first bout. Chepurnov and his research team started to monitor his antibodies. He discovered that they vanished after three months. "The observation showed a fairly rapid decrease,“ he t old the paper. "By the end of the third month from the start of the disease, they ceased to be determined." This falls in line with other studies about COVID-19 antibody life.Chepurnov's story also seems to fall in line with other studies that say immunity can last for at least 5-7 months. The story also proves that immunity lasts even after the antibodies are gone and suggests that other immune system components are indeed involved in providing prolonged protection. Others theorized that T cells would ext end immunity beyond the life of the first batch of antibodies. Chepurnov’s empirical （经验主义的）findings are also important for vaccine research. If immunity lasts less than a year, more booster shots （加强针剂）might be needed after the initial doses.But Newsweek points out a problem with the experiment. Because his first case of COVID-19 hasn't been diagnosed via a PCR test. Also, Chepurnov's experiment hasn't been published in a scientific journal, and it's unclear what scientific rigors （精神）were applied. Still, if his findings are accurate, Chepurnov is actually right to warn against using a herd immunity approach to beat the pandemic.13. Why is Chepurnovs experiment considered controversial?A. Its not effective.B. Its too dangerous.C. Its disapproved of by Russia.D. Its not diagnosed via a PCR test.14. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. Diseases.B. Viruses.C. Antibodies.D. Results.15. What is the finding of Chepurnovs experiment?A. COVID-19 immunity lasts permanently in one's body.B. The longevity of COVID-19 antibodies is about 3 months.C. Old patients are most at risk of developing a severe COVID-19.D. Vaccination can protect one from being infected with all kinds of viruses.16. What's the main idea of the passage?A. Siberia is a unique place for treating COVID-19 patients.B. Newsweek found the evidence against herd immunity to COVID-19.C. Researches showed humans produce antibodies if infected with coronaviruses.D. A controversial experiment on coronavirus immunity was conducted in Russia.EWhether it's Chinese social media like Sina Weibo, or Western media like Instagram an Facebook, videoscan go viral in mere hours.The wide range of viral videos suggests that popular concepts are largely random. After all, what links therecent broom challenge to funny internet cat videos?According to scientists from Stanford University, US, the popularity of a video can be predicted by looking at how certain areas of a person's brain react within the first few seconds of a video. This method has been called neuroforecasting （神经预测）.The team made the finding by recruiting （招募）36 volunteers to watch a range of videos while being scanned with an FMRI - a machine that can monitor the changes in blood oxygen and flow.Participants were shown 32 different videos and were monitored according to their brain responses in four different areas. The results showed that specific brain activity during the first four seconds of a video could effectively predict a person's thoughts on a video and whether they would keep watching.Using the FMRI results, the Stanford team consistently saw increased activity in the nucleus accumbens （伏核）and decreased activity in the anterior insula （前脑岛）parts of the brain while the participants were watching the most popular of the 32-vidco selection.According to the study, these two brain regions are related to the feeling of expectation we get when we're not certain of something's outcome.Stanford neuroscientist （神经学家）and the study's author Brian Knutson said: "If we examine our subjects' choices to watch the video or even their reported responses to the videos, they don't tell us about the general response online ... Only brain activity seems to forecast a video's popularity on the internet.”He added, “Future research might also systematically analyze the video content, so content creators can use these findings to make their videos more popular.”In the future, the team aims to use this type of FMRI experiment to understand "whether processes that generate individual choice can tell us something about choices made by large groups of people”. According to Knutson, this could apply to shopping trends, charity support and general money-spending.17. What did scientists from Stanford University find?A. There are differences between viral videos in different cultures.B. People's reported response can predict the popularity of a video.C. There are links between viral videos under different subjects.D. Viewers' initial brain activity can forecast the popularity of a video.18. What was the brain's response when viewers watched the most popular video?A. All four areas monitored displayed increased activity.B. One area got more active while another became less active.C. Areas related to the feeling of uncertainty got more active.D. The activity of areas related to the feeling of expectation increased.19. What can we conclude from Brian Knutson's words?A. The participants' choices to watch the videos help them make the finding.B. How long the subjects watched the videos also mattered to their conclusion.C. Our brain activity can show something we ourselves don't realize.D. When the video was beyond the viewers5 expectation, it is generally popular.20. What is the aim of the team's future research?A. Exploring the link between individual and general choices.B. Interviewing content creators how they make videos.C. Discouraging more charity organizations.D. Applying their findings to arresting criminals.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。

A1.According to the passage, what does B1G1 do?A.Donate the profits to the people in need.B.Help consumers purchase their favorite products.C.Give away something extra when a product is sold.D.Instruct owners how to operate businesses effectively.2.How do the members feel about themselves as a part of B1G1?A.Confident.B.

But a New Jersey based company, called TerraCycle, has taken on the challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking, but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging, between 2000 and 2014, global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent, and a whole lot of those cigarette ends are ending up as trash. Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways, cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment. “It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute aliter of water,” Terra Cycle founder, Tom Szaky, said. “Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food.”So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? Terra Cycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish, and use it on non-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴) are a little harder. To recycle these, Terra Cycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.They’re now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent of household waste that currently can’t be recycled, such as chocolate packaging, pens, and mobile phones. The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill (垃圾填埋), and then get companies to provide money for the process. And so far, it’s working.“We haven’t found anything that we can’t recycle,” communications director of Terra Cycle, Albe Zakes, said. “But with t he amount and variety of packaging and litter in the world, we are always looking for new waste streams to address.”4.What does Terra Cycle intend to do?A.Search for recyclable materials for use.B.Deal with as many cigarette ends as possible.C.Produce new kinds of industrial plastic products.D.Recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable.5.The underlined word “trash” in Paragraph 2 probably means .A.rubbishB. poisonC. disasterD. ruin6.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A.The effective use of cigarette ends.B.The process of recycling cigarette ends.C.The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends.D.The reason for breaking down cigarette ends.7.What Albe said in the last paragraph implies that .A.there is more and more waste to be recycledB.it is difficult for Terra Cycle to recycle everythingC.Terra Cycle is trying to meet the challenge of new wasteD.Terra Cycle has successfully recycled a large amount of wasteCRats and other animals need to be highly tuned to social signals from others so that they can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living beings, Loleh Quinn at the University of California, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat --- one social and one asocial---for 5 days. The robots rats were quite minimalist, resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels---to move around and colorful markings.During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the same toys, and opened caged doors to let trapped rats escape. Meanwhile, the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to side.Next, the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever.Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free than the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being. They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviours like communal exploring and playing. This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed it earlier, and wanting the robot to return the favour when they get trapped, says Quinn.The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design. The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels. “We’d assumed we’d have to give it a moving head and tail, facial features, and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat, but that wasn’t necessary,” says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia, who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues, even when they come from basic robots. Similarly, children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display only simple social signals. “We humans seem to be fascinated by robots, and it turns out other animals are too,” says Wiles.8.Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can .A.send out warning messages to their fellowB.distinguish a friendly rat from a hostile oneC.attain sociable traits through special trainingD.pick up social signals from non-living rats9.What did the asocial robot do during the experiment?A.It followed the social robot.B.It played with some toys.C.It moved around alone.D.It set the trapped rats free.10.According to Quinn, the rats released the social robot because they_ .A.tried to practice a means of escapeB.expected it to do the same in returnC.wanted to display their intelligenceD.considered that an interesting game11.It can be learned from the text that .A.rats are more sensitive to social cues than expectedB.rats are more socially active than other animalsC.rats behave differently from children in socializingD.rats appear to be adaptable to new surroundingsDYou’ve probably heard that brick-and-mortar retail(实体零售) is in trouble. Even industry giants are closing hundreds of stores. Given retail’s gradual change to mobile and e-commerce, you may be wondering. What will retail look like in the future? Nobody knows. But here are a few things you can expect to see based on current technology.Ultrafast delivery is coming. Today, the normal practice is two-day delivery. But if you’ve been paying attention, you know that’s changing. In fact, a surprisingly high 25% of consumers said that they would abandon their orders if one-day delivery wasn’t avail able. Of course, that’s just the beginning. Two-hour delivery is coming in the foreseeable future, and Amazon has already been trying 30-minute delivery.Your kitchen will resupply itself. You won’t have to worry about running out of essentials like coffee, pet food or snacks because your containers will sense stock levels and replace those items without you having to lift a finger. No more waking up to find your coffee store is empty or last-minute trips to the grocery store because you forgot to buy pet food.Know exactly what’s in stock and where. Have you ever gone to a store hoping to buy something, only to learn that they were out of stock? A new feature from Google Home allows people to ask Google Assistant to find in-stock products at the closeststo re. For example: “Google, where can I find the Nintendo Switch console?” An assistant will tell you how many stores have it right then and how close they are. Of course, it isn’t currently available for all stores in all locations, but you can already see a future when it has become standard.Convenience, experience, and options---retail will take on a new look.12.How does the author develop the passage?A.By arguing and debating.B.By asking and answering.C.By analyzing and commenting.D.By comparing and concluding.13.What can we know from Paragraph 2?A.Consumers can’t get their orders in one day now.B.Superfast delivery has widely been used now.C.The delivery will be in two days in the future.D.It is possible to deliver goods within two hours in the future.14.According to the passage, what will happen in the future?A.Shopping will be more convenient and effective.B.Industrial giants will rule the whole retail trade.C.Retail will disappear gradually.D.People will ask Google Assistant to purchase goods.15.What’s probably the best title of the passage?A.How Will We Run the Retail Trade in the Future?B.How Will New Technology Change the World?C.What Will Retail Be Like in the Future?D.What Benefits Will High-tech Bring in the Future?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。
