None of them looked very hardy, but with hope for the future. I planted them somewhere in our backyard that had enough sunlight. Over the years,because of the poor soil, three of them died. Only one was alive.It grew crooked（弯弯曲曲的）and very slowly.It looked more li ke a fat bush （灌木从）than a tree. Later,I noticed that it was starting to dic. The lower branches h ardly had leaves. Only the top third of the tree was still green. I did my best to save it but it didn't work.Later one morning I went out and looked at it again. I was wondering whether it would be better to just cut it down.lt would make the yard look cleaner.As I walked over to take a closer look at it,however,I noticed something moving within the leaves.It was a robin（知更鸟）patiently build ing a nest in the topmost branches. I thought maybe this old tree was still useful. It might not be healthy or pretty,but it was still giving a bird a home.This tree reminded me that all of our lives have a purpose. It doesn't matter if we are young and strong or old and sick. Until our last breath, we have things to do, love to give and joy to share.We can help to make this world a better and more beautiful place.23.What made the three trees die in the writer's opinion?A.

Remembering things is an important function of our brain. If you think about it, there is so much we have to remember - from where we left our car keys to how we walk.However,do you often find you are forgetful?Mernory allows the brain to store and recall information when needed. Our short-term memory can hold a small amount of information for a short time, while our long-term memory can hold a large amount of information for a long timc. Our memory is amazing, but why do we still forget things?It's possible we don't always store information in our memory casily, maybe because we are in a rush or we consider it not important at the timc. When we do storc information, we often make connections with other things, which helps us recall it later. If you don't have these connections, then it can be casier to forget.But sometimes even our short-term memory can let us down. Have you ever gone into a room to get something only to forget what you wanted when you got there? This is called “The Doorway Effect”.Writing for the BBC Future website, scientist Tom Stafford explains that this happens because we change both the physical and mental（心理的）environments, moving to a different roo m and thinking about different things.Besides, if you have a mind like this, it could be because you have too much on your mind.But we do need to keep our memory good by continually using it, espccially when our brains begin to become smaller and our memory starts to get worse after the age of 50.However, as Luis Villazon says, "Forgetting is not always a bad thing! It would be too tiring if we remembered everything of the world around us." There is always something that we can keep in mind!27. Why does the writer use two questions in Para.1?A.To ask for readers' opinions.B. To give sone useful advice.C.To catch readers' attention.D.To show some study findings.28.What can we learn from the text?A. Long-term memory can hold a smail mnnount of information for a long time.B. Our memory can't be recalled later by making connections with other things.C. Short-term memory can sometimes be bad if we change our environments.D.Our memory will become better and better after we reach the age of 50.29．What is the overall tone（总基调）of the text？A.Creative and personal.B. Scientific and informative.C.Sad and informative.D.Personal and cheerful.30.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?三、词汇运用（本题15小题,每小题1分,共15分）A.用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空,每个单间仅限用一次.please decide hero learn avoid31.With ,I am more than happy to help you carry this box.32.Most road accidents can be if we all follow traffic rules.33.Many young people look up to these who save lives and want to become like them one day.34.Teenagers think they should be allowed to make their own.35.It's reported that Shanghai is the first city to divide rubbish into four groups, which is worth for other citics.B.根据下列句子所给首字母,写出空缺处各单词的正确形式,每空只写一词.36.Thanks to the team spirit.We got a v in the end and all of us will value this experience.37.I r not studying harder for the test.But I have leamed from my mistakes and I will do better next time.38.Many new technologies,like 5G or VR, can be used in the m field to help doctors save the patients.39.I love China and I take p in being Chinesc.40.Molly s eats hamburgers and fries.

After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended.“That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty is,” said Cai Wenguo, the school’s headmaster. The school says no cheating(作弊) happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80％of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas.“I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted me,” said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11.“Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators（监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed.” said Hua Sha.“I don’t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed.” Liu Qingxi said.“I think it’s very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them.” Shang Guanyuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea.

Every year, there is a special day for people around the world to celebrate the importance of good and healthy sleep-World Sleep Day.Sleep is like food for the brain. 1People of different ages need different amounts（数量）of sleep.

It's a fun time for kids to get red envelopes (红包). In China, the color red means happiness and luck. So people give red envelopes to send their best wishes. People do the same when they come to a birthday party of a relative or an elderly person, or visit someone who has just given birth to baby.It's believed that the tradition of giving red envelopes dates back (追溯到) to the Qing Dynasty. The elder could thread (串成串) coins with red or colorful strings. They thought this kind of coins could protect their children from sickness and death. Later, people used red envelopes instead of the red strings.Now, giving and receiving red envelopes are very common to every Chinese. It's more like a way to communicate with others. When you give a red envelope, just as what everyone else does, you feel a part of the circle. But this tradition also has its downsides. Most young people, who have just started their careers, can't afford to give a lot of money. Xiao Jun, who has just found a job recently, said, "I feel stressed about the custom. At present I don't have enough money. Of course you can choose not to give envelopes. But you may gradually (渐渐地) find yourself out of some social activities.Some people are calling for a change to the tradition. They argue that we don't have to give money to show our good wishes. In the UK and the US, people often just give pretty cards to the person they want to bless (祝福). Close friends give gifts, but the gifts are usually things that are not very expensive. In this way, people can get on with each other easily and happily.根据短文内容回答下列问题（每小题答案不超过6个词）1.

I suppose it seemed natural for me to perform for family and friends and I certainly wasn’t shy while growing up. I actually used to enjoy the attention and I still have many enjoyable memories of the whole family singing and dancing together.That’s why it came as no surprise that I started going to drama school from the young age of six. I attended classes there every Saturday for almost 10 years. We were taught how to sing and dance, as well as act, so I was quite good by my teens.Once I’d left school, I went to drama school in London full-time to do a degree. I must say that at that time, and for a period of about six months, I needed a break. Thad spent my whole childhood acting and it felt like I had missed so much fun.So I started partying with friends, danced the nights away and slept late most mornings. It was only when my teacher told me that I was on my final warning that I realized it was time to stop. Partying was great but I was about to lose everything I had worked so hard for all these years.After the shock of that realization, I got my act together very quickly, went back to classes and workshops and soon after, I ended up graduating with a first. I had always been confident about my acting skills but it was then that I felt truly ready to get myself out there professionally. A few months later, The Royal Shakespeare Company gave me my first real role and I acted together with some great names in the world of the stage. Now, of course, I’m better known for my Hollywood roles and people will probably be amazed to hear that I started my acting career as a Shakespearean actor. But it’s true; this is how it all started. 31．What does the writer say about her childhood?A．She did not want to act for her family.B．Her parents made her become an actor.C．She was too young to enjoy drama school.D．She grew up among singers,dancers and actors.32．How were things going when the writer finished school？A．She practiced hard to become an actor.B．She had to work to pay for drama school.C．She thought she needed to relax for a period.D．She had six months off before going to drama school.33．What happened when the writer was a full time drama-student？A．She decided to develop as a dancer.B．She didn't get on well with her teacher.C．She worked as a dancer in the evenings.D．She was nearly told to leave the school.34．What did the writer say about working as a Shakespearean actor？A．She found it boring several months later.B．She thought it could make her well-known.C．It gave her the chance to work with famous actors.D．It was something she had to do to get into Hollywood.35．Which is the best title for the passage?A．Life in a drama school B．A family of artistsC．From Shakespeare to Hollywood D．My memories of childhood 四、根据汉语提示填空五、用所给单词的正确形式填空六、短文选词填空七、汉译英：整句八、阅读填表请认真阅读下列短文，根据所读内容在文章后表格中第1—10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为1—10的相应横线上。
