一、阅读选择
I had always wanted to see England, Scotland and Wales. So when my brother suggested that we take a week-long vacation together somewhere, I immediately did an Internet search. It was at that time when I found Expat Explore. It was a travel agency that could offer just what I wanted at an acceptable price. In fact, I was afraid that it was too good to be true! So I went back to Google to look for evaluations(评价) of Expat Explore. And I could only find positive things.
My second trip with Expat Explore was my first solo trip. I met several people travelling alone on my first trip and after talking with them, I decided to give it a try. When I landed in London by myself for the first time, I wondered why I had thought this was a good idea. My fears didn’t go away until the next morning I met up with the tour group.
I have lived my entire life in the U.S., so it is so amazing to visit a place like the Colosseum (角斗场) in Rome that was built over 1,500 years before America was discovered! Many buildings I have always considered historical in the U.S. are very modern in comparison to those in Europe. The more of the world I see, the more I want to discover the rest of it.
There are my tips for travelling to a place that you never have been to. You’d better plan your vacation through a combination of suggestions from travel agencies and relevant information from the Internet. And the re are still many things you couldn’t expect before the trip. I still remember the day when I first visited London, I couldn’t find my way to the hotel I booked before. I felt really anxious at first, but later I tried to keep calm and ask the locals how I could go to the hotel. They were friendly to give me several ways to choose. You can also download apps such as iTranslate and Google Maps on your phone, so that you could understand people who only speak their native language.
1．How did the author feel when she travelled alone for the first time?
A．Satisfied. B．Scared . C．Excited. D．Bored. 2．According to Paragraph 3, the author thinks travelling _____________.
A．encourages her to broaden her view
B．gives her more chances to make friends
C．develops her interest in modern America
D．increases her desire to learn foreign languages
3．What’s the author’s purpose by mentioning her travelling experience in the last paragraph? A．To tell us the importance of translation tools.
B．To teach us how to communicate with the locals.
C．To warn us about the common accidents when travelling.
D．To show how to plan for unexpected situations during travelling.
If you have felt the skies above you seem increasingly empty of birds you are not alone. A 2018 study by Bird Life International showed that 40 percent of the world’s 11,000 bird species are in decline, and one in eight bird species is threatened with global extinction. Now, some scientists are using technology to save endangered kakapo. If successful, the technique used may help save other bird species as well.
The kakapo, a kind of parrot, is unlike any other member of its species. The bird lost its ability to fly and added on weight, giving it the double honor of being the world’s only flightless parrot and its heaviest one!
Once found in large numbers across New Zealand, the bird, which can weigh up to 5 kilograms, is now in danger of dying out. While cats are largely to blame, the kakapa’s unusual breeding habits don’t help either. For starters, the parrots, which c an live up to 100 years, do not start breeding until the age of five. They also only mate (交配) when the rimu trees — their primary food source — bear large amounts of fruit, an event that happens every two to four years.
Given the impediments to increasing the population, it is not surprising that as of 2019, only 114 adult parrots remain.
To help them, the researchers tie an electronic tracker to each bird, which can pick up the information of the birds, such as where they are nesting and if they are sick. The trackers also allow researchers to control the parrots’ diet.
Once the birds lay eggs, the eggs are taken to a special room to hatch (孵化) and the newborns except one that is given to the mother kakapo will be fed by researchers until they can live by themselves.
4．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?
A．The food of the kakapo.
B．The enemy of the kakapo.
C．The breeding habits of the kakapo.
D．The reasons for the kakapo dying out.
5．What does the underlined word “impediments” in Parag raph 4 probably mean? A．Importance. B．Possibility. C．Difficulty. D．Experience. 6．What measure is taken to save the kakapo?
A．All the young birds are raised by humans.
B．Each kakapo is moved to a special room.
C．The kakapo is closely observed when hatching.
D．Trackers are used to collect the kakapo’s information.
Tsunamis(海啸) are one of the most terrifying natural phenomena that the world suffers. The series of waves produced by the displacement(位移) of a large volume of water can be caused by several events, including earthquakes, underwater explosions and landslides. Once triggered (引发), a tsunami can hit the coast within minutes and its destructive power can be enormous.
At present, early warning systems rely on measuring the movement of dart buoys(浮标), which record changes in the sea level, or assessing the bottom water pressure of the developing tsunami. But they require the tsunami to physically reach the measurement location. The buoys could be fixed in the deep ocean, but this requires an unrealistically big number of buoys. Or people can fix the buoys along the shoreline, but due to the high speed of the tsunami, this method may leave no warning time for people on the land.
Instead, there is a new system ------ using sound waves to predict tsunamis. Sound waves caused by an earthquake can travel much faster than the tsunami that has been triggered. Using standard underwater microphones, we can record these sound waves long before the tsunami arrives regardless of the direction in which the tsunami will travel. The sound signals come from changes in pressure, so what we actually analyze is a series of data on how the pressure is changing overtime. Though buoys also show changes in pressure, the tsunami front must actually reach the buoys to inform us that there is an increase in the water surface. By using underwater microphones，however, we only need to catch the sound signals.
Though the idea of using sound waves to predict tsunamis has been put forward previously, the key to our idea is a new mathematical method that can be used to analyze these recorded sound signals in near real-time. Once this is worked out, we can not only warn people of a tsunami but also more accurately estimate its size long before it reaches the shoreline. 7．From Paragraph 1, we know .
A．what can trigger off tsunamis
B．how to predict tsunamis effectively
C．why tsunamis are the worst natural disaster
D．how to protect the coastal areas from tsunamis
8．What does the underlined word“they”in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．The dart buoys.
B．The changes in the sea level.
C．The changes in water pressure.
D．The present early warming systems.
9．What can we infer about the new warning system from Paragraph 3?
A．It has high accuracy.
B．It can increase warning time.
C．It can monitor changeable sea levels.
D．It can adapt to various water wave conditions.
10．What’s the best title for the text?
A．Ways to guard against tsunamis
B．Methods of analyzing sound signals
C．A new real-time tsunami warning system
D．Tsunami ----- the most terrifying natural disaster
二、七选五
What is classed as normal behaviour in one culture can sometimes be unsuitable, unacceptable, or even offensive in another. We ’re all different and we all have different beliefs and ways of doing things. Understanding this is what cultural awareness(意识) is all about.
11．we need to take a long, hard look at ourselves. What makes us the way we are? Well, there’s history, tradition, education, and our parents. These are all good things. But do any of them make us better than others? No. 12．
It’s easy to understand why we start off believing that our culture is better than any other. In fact, some argue that it’s necessary in order to survive. As children, we typically build our view of the world from our family and the place we grow up. 13．
In the past, many people never left the comfort of their own town or district. They could all spend their days happily believing that the life they knew was the best, that their way of doing things was the right way, and not imagining or caring what others might think. 14．We do business with people from different cultures, selling each other products and ideas. We learn each other’s languages. 15．We even live next door to each other. So we all need to learn to appreciate each other’s cultures and ways of living.
A．Not better, but different.
B．We listen to each other’s music.
C．Today’s world isn’t like that though.
D．Culture influences many parts of people’s lives.
E.Cultural awareness can begin by holding up a mirror.
F.Our differences make the world endlessly interesting.
G.However, as we get older our understanding of the world grows with us.

One windy day in March, Kitty Miller was on her way to school, when she spotted a great pile of lovely red apples in a store window. "Oh, how lovely!” she said. If only Mamma could
have one!"
Kitty's mother was very poor. She had been a dressmaker ever since Mr. Miller died, and had worked so hard to earn a living for herself and Kitty that she had become sick. She had to lie in bed all day, and when Kitty was away at school, the house was very lonesome to her.
When Kitty reached the school that day, her thoughts were full of her sick mother and the lovely apples. She was usually a good student, but today she made so many mistakes that the teacher looked at her in surprise. The little girl could only sit at her desk, with her book before her, and dream of those red apples. When school was dismissed, Kitty started slowly homeward. She had gone only a short distance when she saw a gentleman in front of her drop his wallet. Running quickly forward, she picked it up. It felt quite heavy in Kitty's little hand.
There must be a good deal of money in it, thought Kitty. "How I wish I could keep it. Then I could buy Mamma a red apple and so many other things she needs." But she knew this would not be right, so she hurried after the gentleman. Touching him on the arm, she said, "Please, Sir. You dropped your wallet." "Thank you, dear," said the gentleman, taking the wallet. Then noticing how poorly dressed she was, he said, “Why did you not keep the wallet, my child?”
"Because that would be stealing,,, replied Kitty. “But,” she continued honestly, "before I thought I must give it back to you, I did wish I could keep it, for then I could buy Mamma a red apple. "

8．
词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的句子At present, early warning systems rely on measuring the movement of dart buoys(浮标), which record changes in the sea level, or assessing the bottom water pressure of the developing tsunami.（目前，预警系统依赖于测量dart浮标的运动，记录海平面的变化，或者评估发展中的海啸的底部水压）可知“they”指的是“目前早期的预警系统”。指的是目前早期的预警系统需要海啸实际到达测量地点。故选D。
9．
推理判断题。根据第三段“Instead, there is a new system ------ using sound waves to predict tsunamis. Sound waves caused by an earthquake can travel much faster than the tsunami that has been triggered. Using standard underwater microphones, we can record these sound waves long before the tsunami arrives regardless of the direction in which the tsunami will travel.”（取而代之的是一种新的系统——利用声波来预测海啸。地震引起的声波传播速度比引发的海啸要快得多。使用标准的水下麦克风，我们可以在海啸到达之前很久就将这些声波记录下来，而不
管海啸将向哪个方向传播）可推知，从第三段我们可以推断出新的预警系统是可以增加预警时间的。故选B。
10．
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Instead, there is a new system ------ using sound waves to predict tsunamis.”（取而代之的是一种新的系统——利用声波来预测海啸）和最后一段“Though the idea of using sound waves to predict tsunamis has been put forward previously, the key to our idea is a new mathematical method that can be used to analyze these recorded sound signals in near
real-time.”（虽然利用声波来预测海啸的想法以前已经被提出过，但我们这个想法的关键是一种新的数学方法，可以用来近实时地分析这些记录下来的声音信号）结合全文内容，可知这篇文章通过讲述造成海啸的原因、海啸的破坏力以及当前海啸预警系统的弊端，从而介绍了一个新的实时海啸预警系统。这篇文章最好的题目是“一个新的实时海啸预警系统”。故选C。

14．C
15．B
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。本文论述了人的文化意识受到历史、传统、教育和父母的影响，并无优劣之分，当今社会，人们要学会尊重和欣赏彼此的文化意识和生活方式。
11．
根据下文“we need to take a long, hard look at ourselves. What makes us the way we are? Well, there’s history, tradition, educatio n, and our parents.(我们需要好好审视自己。是什么造就了我们现在的样子？是历史、传统、教育、还有我们的父母)”可知，作者认为，人的文化意识是受到历史、传统、教育还有我们的父母的影响，要想了解自己的文化意识，还得审视自身所受到了怎样的历史、传统和教育，以及父母对自己有哪些影响。因此，E选项“Cultural awareness can begin by holding up a mirror.(文化意识可以从举起一面镜子开始)”切题，该选项中的“holding up a mirror”与“look at ourselves”相呼应，故选E项。
12．
根据上一句“These are all good things. But do any of them make us better than others? No.(但是他们中的任何一个会让我们比其他人更好吗？不是)”以及下一句“It’s easy to understand why we start off believing that our culture is better than any other.(很容易理解为什么我们一开始就认为我们的文化比其他任何文化都好)”可知，结合上文，作者认为不同的历史背景，传统、教育及父母造就了人们之间不同的文化意识，此处又提出了疑问并回答，并不是哪一个文化意识会让我们比其他人更好。因此，A选项“Not better, but different.(不是更好，而是不同)”切题，该选项承上启下，表达的意思是，并不是哪一个文化意识更好，只是不同而已，且该选项中的“Not”与上文中的“No”相呼应。故选A项。
13．
根据上一句“As children, we typically build our view of the world from our family and the place we grow up.(作为孩子，我们通常从家庭和成长的地方建立我们对世界的看法)”可知，孩子是从家庭和成长环境建立起自己对世界的看法，这个看法会随着年龄的增长而变化。因此，G选项“However, as we get older our understanding of the world grows with us.(然而，随着年龄的增长，我们对世界的理解也与日俱增) ”切题，选项中的“grow up”与上一句中的“get older”相呼应。故选G项。
14．
根据上一句“They could all spend their days happily believing that the life they knew was the best, that their way of doing things was the right way, and not imagining or caring what others might think..(他们可以快乐地度过每一天，相信他们知道的生活是最好的，他们做事的方式是正确的，而不是去想象或关心别人会怎么想)”及下一句“We do business with people from different cultures, selling each other products and ideas. We learn each other’s languages.(我们与来自不同文化背景的人做生意，互相销售产品和创意)可知，在过去，人们生活环境相对封闭，他们自认为自己的生活方式以及做事方式都是正确的，而在当今社会，不同文化背景的人可以互相做生意。因此，C项“Today’s world isn’t like that though.(但今天的世界并不是这样) ”切题，该选项承上启下，选项中的“isn’t like”与下文中的“different”相呼应。故选C项。15．
根据上一句“We do business with people from different cultures, selling each other products and ideas. We learn each other’s languages.(我们与来自不同文化背景的人做生意，互相销售产品和创意。我们互相学习语言) ”以及下文“So we all need to learn to appreciate each other’s cultures and ways of living.(所以我们都需要学会欣赏彼此的文化和生活方式。)”可知，当今世界，
不同文化毕竟的人之间做生意，学习对方的语言。该空的下一句又总结到：我们需要学会欣赏彼此的文化和生活方式，可推知，该空作者列举的另一种欣赏彼此文化的方式。因此，B 选项“We listen to each other’s music(我们听对方的音乐)”切题，听彼此的音乐也是欣赏对方文化的一种方式。故选B项。
