This is a sad truth of human nature. One day, I found myself as a witness to a similar situation.One evening, I left work and boarded the train. After entering, I noticed something unusual. The center of the car had a few empty seats while both ends were crowded with people standing. I didn't pay much attention and sat down on one of the empty seats. I sensed a funny smell. It wasn，t long before I noticed a homeless person sleeping on three seats in front of me. He was bleeding from his nose.Why wasn，t anyone helping him?His clothes were torn and he was giving off a strange smell. Along with the smell, his eyes were dull, watery and red. Occasionally he scratched himself and people looked at him as if he had committed a crime. As the train stopped at stations and more people came in they covered their noses and faced away from him. All the seats around him were empty.Suddenly, he began to swear at the people around him. A plain clothes policeman who looked like a construction worker took out his certificate and showed it to the homeless man. The officer, not wanting to touch the homeless man, told him his rights and directed him to exit the train. As the officer walked the man out of the train, the homeless man turned around and said 〃MY HOME!” and started crying.A man doesn，t value things until they are gone. If he didn，t have a home, at least he had freedom. Now he has neither. No one wants to help someone who won，t help himself.24.When entering the car, how did the author feel at first?A.Annoyed.B. Puzzled.C. Sad.D. Ca Im.25.How did people react to the homeless man?A. They caught him and called the police.B.

He is a loser of life.B.He is worth our respect.C. He is very funny.D. He is a fearless fighter.3、Social networks are a big part of nearly every teenager，s life in this day and age. Many teens have QQ, WeChat, or Weibo but little do a lot of teens know that they can be held responsible for everything they post for the rest of their lives. Everything you post online is part of a digital footprint that can always be traced （追踪）back to you. That includes every post, even like, comment, favorite and forward that you have ever committed. All pictures you，ve posted or will post have been stored in a digital database, and it is the companies' right to keep all of these documents that you believe to have been deleted or hidden.With every post comes a consequence;whether it is good or bad, what you post could be seen by anyone. That is why you have to be very careful of what you decide to post or comment.If you think you are safe from Servite finding out about one funny comment you made six months ago on a meaningless picture, you are probably wrong. Recently, a senior, Aaron, at Servite learned this lesson the hard way this year. He wrote a series of ugly comments towards Connelly girls on a web page, ignoring potential consequences.This student, however, did have to face consequences from Servite as he was removed from all of his leadership roles in the school. Surprisingly enough, he fully agreed with his punishment handed down by the administration and fully understood why he was given such severe discipline （惩处）."When you agree to come to Servite, you are agreeing to defend what Servite stands for, 〃the young man said. "That continues past the hours of 8 am and 2 pm. It's at all times. 〃So, next time you，re about to post something you think could be received as offensive or inappropriate, think twice, think again, and don，t press send.28.What does the author think the teens should do in the first paragraph?A. Avoid using social media, documents.C.Be responsible for what they put online, online and offline time.29. What mistake did Aaron make online?A. Drawing some meaningless pictures.B. Remove their own digitalD. Learn to balance their B. Making some bad comments.C. Failing to take his lesson,web page.D.Breaking down a special4、 The effects of coffee consumption on health have long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty.Since the 1980s, some have spoken out against coffee as harmful to health, while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.According to a scientific report, mild coffee consumption, three to five cups per day, can he taken as a healthy dietary pattern, along with other healthful behaviors. The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson ，s disease. According to Dr. Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic, high consumption of coffee has health risks. Dr. Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body. Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr. Gregory Marcus, a doctor from the University of California San Francisco, daily moderate consumption of caffeine, less than 4 cups,is not associated with these issues.Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health,it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.When informed of these possible health benefits and harms of drinking coffee, Harwood, a high school student stated, "Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee,for the most part, coffee drinking sounds good for health. Not to mention I need coffee to stay awake. 〃 32. What is the people ，s attitude towards the effects of coffee on health according to Paragraph 1?A. Disapproving.B. Tolerant.C. Doubtful.D. Mixed.33. What does the underlined word "moderate" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?30. What did Servite do with Aaron 5s case? A. It reached an agreement with Connelly girls, of ill effects.C. It gave Aaron a severe punishment. 31. For whom is the text probably intended? A. Teenagers.B. Teachers.D. Network engineers.B. It helped Aaron get ridD. It stood on Aaron 5s side.C. Parents.A. Personal.B. Slight.C. Reasonable.D. Heavy.34.What can we infer about Harwood?A. He，11 keep on drinking coffee.B.He loves his high school life.C.He often falls asleep in class.D. He has some health problems.35.What would be the best title for the text?A.Why People Love Coffee?B. How Coffee Affects Health?C. The Culture of Coffee DrinkingD. The New Findings of Heart Disease三、短文改错（共1题）1、假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下短文。

At the end of his finalgame, on April 11, he had scored 30 points.This was the end of a career for Dwyane Wade,nicknamed “Flash”. It was the 37-year-old’s last game for the Miami Hea t and his last appearanceon an NBA basketball court. Over his storied career, Wade played in 1,054regular-season games and 177 post-season games, scored more than 23,000 points,appeared in three NBA championships and earned one Finals Most Valuable Player award.Coming from Chicago, Wade’s attitude and styleof play moved many people, including former US President BarackObama. “Whenever you got knocked down, you always showed us how to getback up,” Obama said in a tribute video. “You showed some Chicagospirit... and you did us proud.”Wade broke down the door to the NBA in 2003 withhis outstanding ball-handling skills and jumping ability. He hada strong principle, taking practice as seriously as he took games. He trainedin the gym by himself during the off-season and exercised hard to stay inshape.Wade has also spoken out on social issues.

Yet this year we marked the 50thanniversary of the famous Apollo 11 mission. As those historic pictures werebeamed back to Earth, millionsof us sat transfixed to our television screens, as we watched Neil Armstrong taking asmall step for man and a giant leap for mankind---and, indeed, for womankind.It’s a reminder for us all that giant leaps often start with smallsteps.This year we marked another importantanniversary: D-Day. On 6th June 1944, some 156,000 British, Canadian and American forces landed in northernFrance. It was the largest ever seabourne invasion and was delayed due to badweather. I well remember the look of concern on my father’s face. He knew thesecret D-Day plans but could of course share that burden with no one.For the 75th anniversary of that decisivebattle, in a true spirit of reconciliation , those who had formally been sworn enemies came together infriendly commemorations either side of theChannel, putting past differences behind them. Such reconciliation seldomhappens overnight. It takes patience and time to rebuild trust, and progressoften comes through small steps.Since the end of the Second World War, manycharities, groups and organisations have worked to promote peace and unity around the world, bringingtogether those who have been on opposing sides. By beingwilling to put past differences behind us and move forward together, we honourthe freedom and democracy once won for us at sogreat a cost.The path, of course, is not always smooth, andmay at times this year have felt quite bumpy, but small steps can makea world of difference. And, as we all look forward to the start of a new decade,it’s worth remembering that it is often the small steps, not the giant leapsthat bring about the most lasting change.And so, I wish you all a very happy Christmas.（1）Who does the “I” in the passage probably refer to?A . Neil Armstrong.B . Winston Churchill.C . Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ.D . Donald Trump.（2）What does the underlined word “bumpy” mean in the fifth paragraph?A . Smooth.B . Rough.C . Flat.D . Straight.（3）The passage might be a speech on .A . Christmas DayB . New Year’s EveC . the anniversary of D-Day landingD . Victory in Europe Day（4）What is the purpose of the passage?A . To honour the achievements of moon-landing.B . To remember the victory of D-Day landing.C . To promote reconciliation across the Channel.D . To urge efforts for a world of peace and unity.4. 阅读理解14 days. That’s the time Chinese scientists tookto identify the full genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus since its outbreak. It was shared with the WHO immediately, andhas now become an important foundation for global researchers in the fightagainst the COVID-19. But first, let us turn the clock back 17 years, when ittook months to identify the SARS virus. From months to 14 days, what changed?It turns out AI played an important part.The scientists first obtained bronchoalveolarlavage fluid samples from patients, isolated the DNA and RNA, thensequenced the genetic material bycomparing them. AI’s advantage is its abilityto recognize patterns among a flood of data.Let me put it in a simple way. Sequencing thecoronavirus genome is similar to looking for a needle in a haystack ---looking for genotypes with specific characteristics from a huge gene pool. That’swhere search algorithm , a branch of modern AI,comes in. Think of it as an efficient search engine, which can find the needlein the haystack. This search algorithm can shorten months-long geneticsequencing to weeks or even just a few days. Combined with macro-genomic sequencingand a virus library, this AI technology can also be usedin tracking virus mutation .AI doesn’t just support scientists. It can alsohelp patients by improving the efficiency of diagnosis . China launched a Genomics Service, which can run multiple virusgene comparisons and produce a detailed report within 60 seconds. Thisalgorithm has been put into use in China and shared to the world for free.（1）AI’s advantage is that it can .A . slow down the spread of coronavirusB . separate DNA from RNAC . identify specific genotypes rapidlyD . obtain samples from patients quickly （2）The search algorithm helps shorten the time of genetic sequencing by .A . finding a needle in a haystackB . serving as a search engineC . combining with a virus libraryD . tracing virus mutation（3）What do we know about the Genomics Service in the last paragraph?A . It has been widely used in the world.B . It is mainly based on blood test.C . It is for fast diagnosis of COVID-19.D . It is used to track COVID-19 patients.（4）What’s the best title of the passage?A . 14 Days---China Made it!B . AI Assists in COVID-19 FightC . Search Algorithm, Best ChoiceD . China’s Genomics Serv ice二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）5. 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。
