第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）

第一节：（共10小题：每小题2.5分，共25分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。

A

As the weather turns warmer, many people love to head outdoors to dig in the dirt, plant seeds and watch them grow.

Gardening is a very popular hobby. And it is one that produces wonderful results—food for your dinner table and flowers for your home! Gardens themselves can be very beautiful. So you would think that a garden path is a great place to be. Well, in conversation, it is not. Leading someone up the garden path means you arc trying to trick him. You are not trying to show him your beautiful flowers.

Speaking of beautiful flowers, gardeners love to see small buds forming on their plants. Besides plants and flowers, people can bud, too. If a child is good at drawing and painting, we can call him a budding artist. Or if someone just completed law school, we could call her a budding lawyer.

On the opposite end, you stop something from growing if you “nip it in the bud”. This is a common expression when we talk about stopping something bad. It’s good to nip small problems in the bud before they turn into big problems.

Now, a problem that many gardeners have is weeds. Weeds grow easily and can quickly take over a garden. In conversation, we sometimes use “weeds” to mean too many details. So, if you are in the weeds， you are taken over by too many details. For example, let's say a politician is delivering a speech on affordable housing. But she gives too much information on the legislative (立法的）process needed to reach her goal. You could say, 4*She is really in the weeds. People stopped listening 20 minutes ago. They just want to know if they are going to be able to buy a house or not.”

21. According to the text，“budding” is used to describe something or somebody _________.

A. that is difficult to get            B. that is starting to develop

C. that is of great importance        D. that is extremely outstanding

22. Which of the following can best describe a speaker who is in the weeds?

A. Brilliant and talented.         B. Popular and successful.

C. Thoughtful and wise.          D. Boring and unwelcome.

23. What is the text mainly about?

A. An introduction to gardening.    

B. Some    English expressions about gardening.

C. The specific meanings of some popular sayings.

D. The role of English expressions in people’s life.

B

You probably know Machu Picchu and the Taj Mahal as famous UNESCO World Heritage sites一structures and monuments of great cultural value. But what about Beijing opera? Or the art of pizza-making in Naples? What do these have in common?

Traditions like these are known as “intangible cultural heritage”. In comparison with UNESCO World Heritage sites, intangible heritage does not include buildings like palaces and temples. Instead, it includes traditional art forms，such as music，dance，and craft-making—living traditions that are an important part of a place's culture.

UNESCO began to identify cultural traditions in 2008. By 2017, UNESCO had approved (批准）more than 300 diverse practices. These include cultural events like the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival, performing arts like Spanish flamenco, and handicrafts like Japanese washi paper-making. In 2010, UNESCO also began to include important regional cuisines, starting with French and Mexican food.

Cultural rituals (仪式）are an important part of the UNESCO list. An example is the Tlemcen wedding ceremony in Algeria. The ceremony begins in the bride's parents’ home, where friends and female relatives help the bride prepare for the ceremony. The bride is first dressed in a golden silk dress. Before leaving the house for the ceremony, her face is wrapped in a golden silk veil (面纱). Later, during the wedding feast， the bride removes her veil, ready to be married. The tradition has passed from one generation to the next, and marks the community's cultural identity.

Some of the cultural items on the list are dying out and in need of protection. An example is A1 Sadu—a traditional form of weaving in the United Arab Emirates. The tradition was once widely practiced by communities of desert Bedouin women. However, as many Bedouins have now moved to cities, Al Sadu is mostly practiced by older women whose number is decreasing.

UNESCO hopes that by bringing attention to cultural traditions such as Al Sadu, they will be more likely to survive. “Cultural traditions are important to fight for.” says Cecile Duvelle of UNESCO. “The more globalized the world becomes,” she adds, “the more important it is not to lose these traditional roots.”

24. Which of the following could NOT be added to the intangible cultural heritage list?

A. Flute music from Peru.    B. A historic bridge in Paris.

C. An Irish poetry festival.    D. A traditional Italian diet.

25. What can we learn from the passage?

A. All of the cultural items on the UNESCO list are not well preserved.

B. The traditional weaving---Al Sadu is still popular in Bedouin culture.

C. The main ceremony of the Tlemcen wedding takes place in the bride's parents' home.

D. Typical regional dishes are among the first items on the UNESCO list of intangible heritage.

26. What’s the best title for the passage?

A. Disappearing Cultural Traditions

B. Different Types of Cultural Practices

C. An Introduction to Intangible Heritage

D. Cultural Heritage on the UNESCO List

C

Hurricanes could be lasting longer after they make landfall, and spreading their damage farther inland, a new study suggests, which is a previously undescribed effect of climate change.

The study, published in the journal Nature, analyzed hurricanes that have struck North America from 1967 to 2018. It found that hurricanes making landfall in the 1960s lost 75 percent of their power in the first day after coming ashore, while today a hurricane that strikes land typically decays by about 50 percent in the first day.

The study's authors claimed rising ocean temperature is the driving force behind the formation of longer-lived hurricanes. They ran four models that simulate (模拟）a hurricane moving over land. In each， they adjusted the temperature of the ocean water underneath the storm. The higher the sea surface temperature was, the researchers found, the more moisture (水汽〉a storm carried over land and the longer it lasted. They said if a hurricane is like an engine, the warm ocean water beneath it is like fuel. When ocean water is particularly warm, as it is in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, it can increase pressure on hurricanes. If human-caused climate warming continues, they added, the destructive power of hurricanes—some with 100-plus-mile-pcr-hour winds and heavy rainfall — could extend farther inland and especially affect ill-equipped communities.

James Kossin, a climate scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), said, “They make a convincing case that the long-lasting hurricane is related to higher ocean temperature, and this can in turn be linked to climate change.”

“I would probably support the opinion that this phenomenon (现象）is possibly happening，” said Dan Chavas, an atmospheric scientist at Purdue University and one of the study's reviewers. “1 think the effect is very real, but the question is how strong the effect is. We still have a long way to go.”

27. What does the underlined word “decays” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. Spreads.    B. Hits.    C.    Rises.    D. Weakens.

28. How did the researchers mainly conduct the study?

A. By analyzing data and doing experiments.    

B.  By observing hurricanes and making records.

C. By simulating hurricanes and having discussions.

D. By giving explanations and making comparisons.

29. What do Dan Chavas’s words indicate?

A. Measures should be taken to predict hurricanes.

B. Climate change leads to higher ocean temperature.

C. More research is needed to study this phenomenon.

D. The effect of hurricanes is weakened in inland areas.

30. What’s the author's purpose in writing the text?

A. To inform readers of a new study.    

B. To prepare people for powerful hurricanes.

C. To call for global action on climate change.    

D. To warn readers of the danger of global warming.

“Max! Come here, please，’’ Mom called.

I dropped my suitcase. Mr. O’Mallev couldn't be in trouble already! I raced to the kitchen and was relieved to see my big dog simply walking around, smelling every comer of our new house. He stood at the front door, listening to the unfamiliar traffic noises.

Mom said, “Will you phone Grandpa? I promised to let him know when we got here.”

I dialed, and Grandpa picked up on the first ring.

“Grandpa!”

“Max! How’s your new house?”

“Fine.” I swallowed hard. “I miss you already.”

“It’s been too quiet since you left,” he said. “Even the squirrels miss being chased (追逐〉by that big old ugly dog of yours!”

“Grandpa, he’s not ugly!”

Grandpa laughed, “That dog is used to running wild on this farm. I could keep him here, since you’ll be coming up every weekend.”

“I know,” I said. “But 1 couldn’t give up my dog for five days a week!”

“Just an idea.” Grandpa said. “Put your mom on.”

Mom was busy sorting out the luggage as I passed her the phone. I took the chain (链条)Grandpa had given me, tied it to Mr O’Malley’s collar (颈圈）and walked him to the backyard. My chest tightened as he stared at me with sad eyes. What he wanted to do was run.

At last Friday came, and we packed to go to the farm. “Let’s walk him to the car together，’’ Mom said, tying the chain to his collar.

As we started out the door, Mr. O'Malley suddenly took off and I lost hold. Mom and I quickly jumped into the car and caught up to Mr. O’Malley, who was running beside the road with his tongue sticking out. All at once, he dashed into the road. A coming car came to a sudden stop in front of us. Mom mouthed “Sorry” to the driver. To me, she yelled, “Don’t lose sight of that dog!” We chased Mr. O'Malley all the way to the park before he，d had enough and was ready to get in the car.

ANIMAL PROTECTION ACTIVITIES HELD

To raise our awareness of protecting animals, our school held diverse activities on October 4th, “World Animal Day”.

A photo exhibition attracted a number of students, showing us many animals are becoming endangered species for various reasons like illegal hunting and pollution. More inspiring was a speech contest where participants eagerly talked about how we individuals could make a difference.

The activities turned out a great success. As one student put it, ''Ifs really distressing to see the animals dying out at such an alarming rate. It’s time we should spare no effort to protect them.”

Paragraph 1：

Finally we were on our way to the farm. Grandpa's farm was faraway, free of the bustle and hustle of the city. Returning to this old place, Mr. O’Malley seemed to be back to his happy days. He scuttled across the tomato field, leaving the vegetables in a mess, chased the squirrels, driving the poor little things back to the woods, and dived at the larks perching on the fence, startling them to flutter off in every direction. As the birds soared into the air, so did Mr. O’Malley’s spirits. “He loves the life on the farm, doesn’t he?” chortled my grandpa. I pretended not to have heard it, unwilling to get separated from my dog. Soon, the weekend was near an end.

Paragraph 2：

I never saw a dog change as quickly as Mr. O 'Malley did when we got ready to leave on Sunday. His eyes no longer gleamed and his ears, which were always perked, drooped lifelessly. As we walked him to our car, Mr. O'Malley wheeled around and bolted in the opposite direction, back to the farm. This time, I clutched the chain with full strength. However, my heart tightened at his sad whimpers—he was begging to be released! Slowly, my hands loosened As I watched Mr. O’Malley run wild in the distance, my vision blurred. Mom stroked my hair affectionately and said，“Dear, this is what love is all about.”
