一、阅读理解
School activities for students during COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic is causing worldwide concern for elementary and secondary school student’s mental condition. The following are some possible activities that can be carried out to help them and also create a safe and healthy school environment.
John’s and Mary’s thoughts
Students are presented with a picture which says that John and Mary have different thoughts after they have heard of the coronavirus. Then students are invited to guess and write the characters’ thoughts on the picture. This activity uses a “projective” method, as students are not asked what their feelings are, but instead, they project their feelings onto the characters.
When I’m worried
After talking about what the characters may think, students can now turn their attention to themselves. They are asked to list their common worries, but most importantly, they are directed to think about some response measures and the helpful relationships they can rely on. This is a vital exercise, for it shifts students’ focus from their worries to the coping strategies.
Seeking a balance
Students are asked to provide three key recommendations to prevent infection. Teachers can pick out the positive behavior and correct any incorrect suggestions. It’s also important to strike a balance between the recommended healthy behavior and the concept that microorganisms are a natural part of the environment and that many of them play a key role in sustaining human life.
Videos to know and understand viruses
It is advisable to plan science lessons on microorganisms. Students can know more about the pandemic by studying microbial (微生物的) life, and thus they can understand what viruses are and how they spread. But be careful not to bring anxiety and avoid talking about scary messages.
1. Which activity requires students to express their feelings indirectly?
A. Seeking a balance. B. When I’m worried.
C. John’s and Mary’s thoughts. D. Videos to know and understand viruses.
2. Why is the second activity important?
A. It puts students at ease.
B. It enables students to share experiences.
C. It directs students’ attention to the solutions.
D. It helps students to establish good relationships.
3. What can students learn in both the third and the last activities?

(这个活动采用了一种“投射”的方法,学生不会被问到他们的感受是什么,而是把他们的感受投射到人物身上)”可知,John’s and Mary’s thoughts这个活动没有要求学生直接表达,而是用“投射”方式表达情感。故选C项。
2. 细节理解题。根据When I’m worried的最后一句“This is a vital exercise, for it shifts students’ focus from their worries to the coping strategies.(这是一个非常重要的练习,因为它将学生的注意力从担忧转移到应对策略上)”可知,When I’m worried这个活动之所以重要,是因为它能引导学生关注解决方案。故选C项。
3. 细节理解题。根据Seeking a balance的第三句“It’s also important to strike a balance between the recommended healthy behavior and the concept that microorganisms are a natural part of the environment and that many of them play a key role in sustaining human life. (同样重要的是,要在被推荐的健康行为和微生物是环境的自然组成部分,且许多微生物在维持人类生命方面发挥着关键作用的这个概念之间取得平衡)”,Videos to know and understand viruses的第一句“It is advisable to plan science lessons on microorganisms.(计划有关微生物的科学课程是可取的)”可知,这两个活动中,学生可以学到关于微生物的知识。故选A项。
Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century the intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed down by a young man. “As someone of Gaolou origin, I have a responsibility to restore our ancestors’ art form,” said Chen Guorui, the world’s only inheritor (继承人) of this ancient art.
Gaolou Mixian uses rice paste to glue together selected grains of transparent (透明的) rice to create realistic figures or structures. It is a unique folk art that developed during the Qing Dynasty and reached its peak during the first half of the 20th century. Each household in Gaolou village would make rice structures that they put on display in their ancestral halls (祠堂) during the Chinese New Year, which attracted people from all sides.
However, due to the wet weather in southern China, these rice-made artworks would only last three to four months before losing their shape. It is for this reason that these works are not seen in museums in China. Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.
Chen found out about this after hearing one former resident express disappointment about its loss. Curious, he started to do research and tried out the methods he heard about from older people in the village. After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.
Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as making some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice. Since 2017, people at home and abroad have taken an interest in this long-lost art form. To avoid being the last inheritor, Chen has been giving classes to some students at a primary school in Fuzhou with the support of local education authorities.
4. What do we know about Gaolou Mixian?
A. It is stable in wet environment. B. It is mainly made of rice.
C. It is a popular art form nationwide. D. It was created for religious reasons.
5. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The techniques of the artworks. B. The disappearance of the art form.
C. The disappointment of the villagers. D. The reasons for shape loss of the artworks.
6. Which of the following can best describe Chen Guorui?
A. Cooperative and kind. B. Outstanding and calm.
C. Courageous and cautious. D. Responsible and creative.
7. What message does Chen’s story convey to us?
A. It’s never too old to learn. B. Strike while the iron is hot.
C. It is no use crying over spilt milk. D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

5. 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.(由于各种历史原因,高楼村的大多数人都没有把这门艺术传承下去,导致它在近70年前就消失了。)”可知,高楼米线这门艺术形式由于各种原因消失了,结合划线词所在句子的句意“陈是在听到一名前居民对这样的损失失望后得知这一情况”可知,this指代上文提到的高楼米线的消失。故选B。
6. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.(经过几个月的探索,他终于成功完成了自己的第一部作品。)”和最后一段“Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as making some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice.(在过去的五年里,陈国锐逐渐提高了自己的技艺,甚至开始使用新技术,比如用彩色米粒制作一些彩色艺术品。)”可知,陈国锐有决心且富有创意。故选D。
7. 推理判断题。根据文章内容,结合文章第一句“Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century the intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed down by a young man.(谁也没有想到,失去半个多世纪的非物质文化遗产——高楼米线,会被一个年轻人修复并传承下去。)”可知,文章主要介绍了消失的非物质文化遗产高楼米线被一位年轻人重现并传承下去,由此可推知,文章主要告诉我们有志者事竟成。故选D。
In simpler times, we never had to consider a loved one’s privacy when gift-buying. But as technology has continued its high-speed advance and growth at all costs, many companies and the products they create have long been skirting (回避) adequate data and privacy protection, leaving users at risk. For example, the audiobook reader you give to your children to send them to sleep at night now captures data on what they like.
As we continue to integrate (整合) the Internet into more of our devices and cover our homes and lives with cameras, microphones and trackers, the lack of data protection and privacy is becoming dangerous. Very few companies are being honest about how they collect, store and use data, and the only loser is the very individuals who use these products.
But that, right there, is the one chance consumers have to turn the tide (扭转局势).
The change starts with us. Buying a small device isn’t simply buying a product any more; it’s a conscious decision about whether you trust the company behind it to work in your best interests and keep you safe. It’s your responsibility as a consumer to be aware of this choice and act on it. In an ideal future, it won’t require hours of research — whether done by the buyer or by organizations — to buy safe, responsible products. But for now, it’s the best option available as these companies continue to get a free pass.
We can demand more. We must demand more. We can demand that privacy and security be taken seriously by the companies who build the products we buy. Yes, technology has vastly improved our lives, but that shouldn’t come at the cost of our safety. So if you want to give someone a gift, give them the gift of privacy. It’s the only way to make the Internet — and our lives — a little safer in this digital world.
8. What does the writer try to tell us in the first paragraph?
A. Gift-buying nowadays is much more complicated.
B. Many products nowadays put users’ privacy at risk.
C. Companies are expanding their businesses rapidly.
D. Audio-book readers are popular with young children.
9. What might happen if more of our home devices are linked to the Internet?
A. We can better protect our privacy. B. They will make our life more convenient.
C. We are more likely to reveal our privacy. D. More companies will keep watch on them.
10. What does the underlined phrase “get a free pass” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Do as they wish. B. Mislead the users.
C. Shift the responsibility. D. Offer services free of charge.
11. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce a new trend in gift-buying.
B. To analyse the causes of users’ privacy leak.
C. To raise people’s awareness of privacy protection.
D. To explain the reasons for privacy abuse.

本文为一篇说明文。文章阐述了数字时代,互联网融入生活后,人们的数据和隐私被产品背后的公司收集、存储并使用,使得用户隐私处于危险之中,以此来提醒大家,要提高自身的保护隐私的意识。
8. 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“But as technology has continued its high-speed advance and growth at all costs, many companies and the products they create have long been skirting (回避) adequate data and privacy protection, leaving users at risk. (但随着技术的持续高速发展和增长的成本,许多公司和他们创造的产品一直在回避足够的数据和隐私的保护,这使得用户处于危险之中。)”可推知,现在有很多产品都没有好好保护用户的隐私,用户的隐私被置于危险之中。故选B项。
9. 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“As we continue to integrate (整合) the Internet into more of our devices and cover our homes and lives with cameras, microphones and trackers, the lack of data protection and privacy is becoming dangerous. Very few companies are being honest about how they collect, store and use data, and the only loser is the very individuals who use these products. (随着我们继续将互联网融入更多的设备,在我们的家庭和生活中安装摄像头、麦克风和追踪器,数据保护和隐私的缺乏正变得危险。很少有公司会诚实地说明他们是如何收集、存储和使用数据的,唯一的输家就是使用这些产品的个人。)”可知,家庭设备连接进互联网,我们的隐私和数据因缺乏保护,将可能被泄露在网络上,这是件危险的事情。故选C项。
10. 词句猜测题。根据第四段“The change starts with us. Buying a small device isn’t simply buying a product any more; it’s a conscious decision about whether you trust the company behind it to work in your best interests and keep you safe. It’s your responsibility as a consumer to be aware of this choice and act on it. In an ideal future, it won’t require hours of research — whether done by the buyer or by organizations — to buy safe, responsible products. But for now, it’s the best option available as these companies continue to get a free pass. (改变从我们开始。购买小型设备不再是简单地购买产品;这是一个有意识的决定,决定你是否相信背后的公司会为你带来最大的利益,并保证你的安全。作为消费者,你有责任意识到这种选择并采取行动。在理想的未来,购买安全、负责任的产品将不需要花费数小时的研究——无论是由买家还是组织进行的研究。但就目前而言,这是最好的选择,因为这些公司继续获得get a free pass。)”可知,就目前来说,我们得花时间去研究哪一款产品是对我们的隐私、数据能起到保护作用,因为一旦购买并使用这个产品,它背后的公司就会收集、存储、使用我们的信息数据。短语get a free pass,意为“得到免费通行证”,在文中,指代产品背后的公司“能按照他们的意愿”收集、存储、使用我们的信息数据。A项“Do as they wish. (按他们的意愿去做。)”与get a free pass的语意相近。故选A项。
11. 推理判断题。通读全文,尤其第一段第二句“But as technology has continued its high-speed advance and growth at all costs, many companies and the products they create have long been skirting (回避) adequate data and privacy protection, leaving users at risk. (但随着技术的持续高速发展和增长的成本,许多公司和他们创造的产品一直在回避足够的数据和隐私的保护,这使得用户处于危险之中。)”,以及第三段“But that, right there, is the one chance consumers have to turn the tide (扭转局势). (但这正是消费者扭转局面的唯一机会)”,以及最后一段“We can demand that privacy and security be taken seriously by the companies who build the products we buy. Yes, technology has vastly improved our lives, but that shouldn’t come at the cost of our safety. (我们可以要求生产我们购买的产品的公司认真对待隐私和安全问题。是的,科技极大地改善了我们的生活,但这不应该以我们的安全为代价。)”可知,文章主要阐述了数字时代,用户的隐私和数据保护的缺乏令用户处于危险中的现象,目的是提高人们的保护隐私的意识。故选C项。
Every driver loves sailing through a series of green lights without having to stop and wait at a traffic light. Now, thanks to artificial intelligence, German researchers have found a way to reduce time spent at intersections (十字路口).
Called the KI4LSA project and funded by the Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure, the innovation is being tested. Scientists first studied algorithms (算法) taken from a busy intersection to learn about traffic patterns and where improvements were most needed. The new AI method uses radar sensors and high-resolution cameras to interpret traffic patterns in real time. They can determine the speed of traffic as well as waiting time and combine this with self-learning algorithms. Scientists are currently trying this out at a busy intersection in Lemgo, Germany, with encouraging results.
The intelligent lights are said to improve traffic flow by 10 to 15 percent, which results in money saved; the EU estimates that traffic jams create economic damage that adds up to 100 billion euros a year. Aside from reducing commuting (通勤) time, these traffic lights will reduce noise and CO2 emissions from cars idling (未熄火) at intersections.
Another exciting development in this research is the K14PED project, which studies pedestrians (行人) crossing intersections. Using AI, researchers can identify how many people are waiting at a pedestrian crossing and whether some of these people will need extra time to cross the street. Using a 3D points cloud, they can tell if someone has disabilities or is elderly without identifying the individual. Since pedestrian buttons that are presently at intersections cannot determine if some people have special needs or are elderly, this is a real win. Such a needs-based system could reduce pedestrian waiting time by 30 percent, which could then decrease jaywalking (乱穿马路) by 25 percent.
Testing will be done until the summer of 2022 in the German towns of Lemgo and Bielefeld, with researchers optimistic that it will be adopted by many countries. This technology is exciting news for pedestrians and drivers alike. It encourages safety, protects the environment, and may even give you more time to enjoy your morning coffee before heading off to work!
12. What is the function of AI in the KI4LSA project?
A. To detect road conditions and noise pollution.
B. To provide real-time information about traffic.
C. To control traffic lights and the speed of vehicles.
D. To remind people of traffic rules at intersections.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Advantages of the intelligent lights.
B. Ways of improving traffic flow.
C. The development of artificial intelligence.
D. The effect of traffic jams on the environment.
14. What is special about the K14PED project?
A. It has been applied to streets in many countries.
B. It ensures pedestrians cross the road quickly.
C. It helps to avoid traffic accidents with a 3D points cloud.
D. It can meet the demand of pedestrians with special needs.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. The Bright Future of AI Technology
B. The New Traffic Service for Senior Citizens
C. Digital Traffic System: A Start to Smart Cites
D. The Intelligent Lights: A Blessing for Transportation
【答案】12.B
13.A
14.D
15.D

本文是说明文。利用人工智能,德国研究人员找到了一种减少十字路口停留时间的方法。
12. 推理判断题。根据第二段“The new AI method uses radar sensors and high-resolution cameras to interpret traffic patterns in real time.”(这种新的人工智能方法使用雷达传感器和高分辨率摄像头实时解读交通模式。)可知,人工智能在KI4LSA项目中的作用是提供实时的交通信息。故选B。
13. 主旨大意题。根据第三段“The intelligent lights are said to improve traffic flow by 10 to 15 percent, which results in money saved; the EU estimates that traffic jams create economic damage that adds up to 100 billion euros a year. Aside from reducing commuting (通勤) time, these traffic lights will reduce noise and CO2 emissions from cars idling (未熄火) at intersections.”(据说,智能灯可以使交通流量提高10%到15%,从而节省了资金;欧盟估计,交通拥堵每年造成的经济损失总计达1000亿欧元。除了减少通勤时间,这些交通信号灯还将减少十字路口车辆怠速行驶时产生的噪音和二氧化碳排放。)可知,第三段主要讲述了智能灯的优点。故选A。
14. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Another exciting development in this research is the K14PED project, which studies pedestrians (行人) crossing intersections. Using AI, researchers can identify how many people are waiting at a pedestrian crossing and whether some of these people will need extra time to cross the street. Using a 3D points cloud, they can tell if someone has disabilities or is elderly without identifying the individual.”(这项研究中另一个令人兴奋的进展是K14PED项目,它研究行人穿过十字路口。通过人工智能,研究人员可以确定有多少人在人行横道前等待,以及其中一些人是否需要额外的时间过马路。通过使用3D点云,他们可以在不识别个体的情况下分辨出某人是残疾人还是老年人。)可知,K14PED项目的特殊之处在于可以满足有特殊需求的行人。故选D。
15. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Every driver loves sailing through a series of green lights without having to stop and wait at a traffic light. Now, thanks to artificial intelligence, German researchers have found a way to reduce time spent at intersections (十字路口).”(每个司机都喜欢通过一系列的绿灯,而不必在红绿灯前停下来等待。现在,多亏了人工智能,德国研究人员找到了一种减少十字路口停留时间的方法。)可知,本文主要讲述了利用人工智能,德国研究人员找到了一种减少十字路口停留时间的方法。因此“智能灯:交通的福音”是最佳标题。故选D。
二、七选五
A growing number of young people are having treatment for pain caused by taking pictures of themselves for social media. Jokingly named “selfie (自拍) wrist”, the condition is actually called CTS — carpal tunnel syndrome (腕管综合征).
____16____ If this is done repeatedly, the median nerve and blood vessels (血管) which travel through the carpal tunnel into the hand will become compressed (压缩), causing pain and numbness in the wrist and hand.
____17____ The most important thing is avoiding or reducing the activities that cause it. Meanwhile, wearing splints (夹板) and doing stretching exercises for the hand can work for mild symptoms, though it may take some time to improve the condition. ____18____ For example, a woman who regularly took selfies was found unable to hold things tightly due to severe numbness. As a result, the doctor had to operate on her to relieve pressure within the carpal tunnel.
In an interview, Dr. Raj Ragoowansi, a consultant plastic surgeon, said he had seen a 30% to 40% increase in people between the ages of 18 and 35 showing symptoms of CTS. He stressed that he could not prove that CTS symptoms were definitely caused by taking too many selfies.
____19____ Dr. Ragoowansi also asked younger patients about their full history of mobile phone use, and he found those who kept on using the thumb to type when using their phones easily got thumb-based pain, which led to “phone thumb”, or tendonitis (肌腱炎). ____20____
A. However, he believed it was the most reliable explanation.
B. Many were no longer taking selfies because of the condition.
C. He added that the carpal tunnel “was an unforgiving space”.
D. CTS can be treated with both non-surgical and surgical methods.
E. In severe cases, the injection of drugs and even surgery will be required.
F. “Selfie wrist” is caused by inward flexing (屈伸)of the wrist to take perfect pictures.
G. He concluded that not just taking selfies but texting too could be responsible for CTS.
【答案】16.F
17.D
18.E
19.A
20.G

本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了被称为“selfie wrist”的腕管综合征,并分析自拍和发短信可能是其诱因。
16. 根据指代关系和下文“If this is done repeatedly, the median nerve and blood vessels (血管) which travel through the carpal tunnel into the hand will become compressed (压缩), causing pain and numbness in the wrist and hand.(如果反复这样做,通过腕管进入手部的正中神经和血管会受到压迫,导致手腕和手部疼痛和麻木)”可知,设空句中会出现指示代词this的指代内容,且该内容是某种会导致手腕和手部疼痛和麻木的行为,F项“‘Selfie wrist’ is caused by inward flexing (屈伸) of the wrist to take perfect pictures.(“自拍手腕”是由手腕向内弯曲来拍摄完美照片所导致的)”中称为“Selfie wrist”的“手腕向内弯曲来拍摄”的行为正是this指代的行为,如果反复这样做,会导致手腕和手部疼痛和麻木,F项符合上下文连贯。故选F项。
17. 结合下文“The most important thing is avoiding or reducing the activities that cause it. Meanwhile, wearing splints (夹板) and doing stretching exercises for the hand can work for mild symptoms, though it may take some time to improve the condition. (最重要的是避免或减少导致腕管综合征的活动。与此同时,佩戴夹板和做手部伸展运动可以缓解轻微的症状,但可能需要一段时间才能改善状况)”和本段末句“As a result, the doctor had to operate on her to relieve pressure within the carpal tunnel.(结果,医生不得不给她做手术来缓解腕管内的压力)”可知,腕管综合征可以通过非手术和手术两种方法治疗,D项“CTS can be treated with both non-surgical and surgical methods.(腕管综合征可以用非手术和手术两种方法治疗)”是对全段主旨句,符合上下文连贯。故选D项。
18. 下文“For example, a woman who regularly took selfies was found unable to hold things tightly due to severe numbness. As a result, the doctor had to operate on her to relieve pressure within the carpal tunnel. (例如,一名经常自拍的女性被发现由于严重麻木而无法紧紧握住东西。结果,医生不得不给她做手术来缓解腕管内的压力)”举例说明了需要通过手术治疗的严重情况,是对E项“In severe cases, the injection of drugs and even surgery will be required.(在严重的情况下,需要注射药物,甚至手术)”的举例说明,上下文连贯。故选E项。
19. 根据上一段末句“He stressed that he could not prove that CTS symptoms were definitely caused by taking too many selfies. (他强调,他无法证明CTS症状一定是由于自拍过多造成的)”可知,虽然Dr. Raj Ragoowansi无法证明CTS症状一定是由于自拍过多造成的,但结合下文的研究可知,他并未否定这一观点,所以A项“However, he believed it was the most reliable explanation.(然而,他认为这是最可靠的解释)”承上启下,其中代词it指代上文中“CTS symptoms were caused by taking too many selfies”,上下文语意连贯。故选A项。
20. 根据上文“Dr. Ragoowansi also asked younger patients about their full history of mobile phone use, and he found those who kept on using the thumb to type when using their phones easily got thumb-based pain, which led to “phone thumb”, or tendonitis.(Dr. Ragoowansi还询问了年轻患者使用手机的全部历史,他发现那些在使用手机时一直用拇指打字的人很容易患上拇指疼痛,从而导致“手机拇指”,或肌腱炎)”可知,Dr. Ragoowansi对造成腕管综合征的原因进行了其它研究,认为“发送短信”也是诱因之一,结合前文的“自拍手腕”,Dr. Ragoowansi最后得出结论:“He concluded that not just taking selfies but texting too could be responsible for CTS. (他的结论是,不仅仅是自拍,发短信也可能是造成CTS的原因)”,G项是对前文内容的总结,符合上下文连贯。故选G项。

四、用单词的适当形式完成短文
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A new way to restore Earth’s biodiversity — from the air
Every year, humans change 10 million hectares of land, and not for the better. Right now, there is ____41____ much damaged land around the world that we need to fix this fast. Fortunately, technology can help. Restoration is ____42____ enormous, complex challenge. It cannot be done by ____43____ (simple) planting trees. We need to bring native ecosystems back ____44____ life, which requires deep ____45____ (ecology) expertise. Until now, we have been limited to poor copies, like vast plantations of a single kind of tree.
But drones (无人机) change that by allowing us ____46____ (gather) data and plant the right mix of vegetation (植被) quickly. And the machine-learning ____47____ (analyze) enables us to monitor our restoration work. For example, in Australia, we’re using drone — based planting and ecology — trained AI to restore thousands of hectares of land mined for coal. Many native forests here in Australia ____48____ (destroy) by catastrophic bushfires over the last few years. This means reduced food sources and safe habitats for koalas. A new project will accelerate the restoration of thousands of hectares of koala forests.
With these technologies ____49____ (combine), we’re able to expand restoration from a small island to an entire continent. We can return forests to land _____50_____ a mine used to be, or recreate ecosystems like the one we’re hoping to restore on Lord Howe Island.
【答案】41.so
42.an
43.simply
44.to
45.ecological
46.to gather
47.analysis
48.have been destroyed
49.combined
50.where
【解析】
【导语】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一种从空气中恢复地球生物多样性的新方法。
41. 考查固定搭配。句意:现在,世界上有太多受损的土地,我们需要尽快修复。so much如此多的……,同时与后面的that构成so…that…如此……以至于,故填so。
42. 考查冠词。句意:修复是一项巨大而复杂的挑战。challenge是可数名词,此处泛指一个挑战,且enormous的发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
43. 考查副词。句意:光靠植树是做不到的。修饰动词短语planting trees用副词,作状语,故填simply。
44. 考查固定短语。句意:我们需要让本土生态系统恢复生机,这需要深厚的生态专业知识。bring...back to life使……复活、恢复生机,故填to。
45. 考查形容词。句意同上,修饰名词expertise用形容词,作定语,故填ecological。
46. 考查不定式。句意:但无人机改变了这一点,它允许我们收集数据,并迅速种植正确的植被组合。allow sb. to do sth.允许某人做某事,故填to gather。
47. 考查名词。句意:机器学习分析使我们能够监控我们的修复工作。此处缺少名词作主语,表抽象意义,不可数,故填analysis。
48. 考查时态语态。句意:在过去的几年里,澳大利亚的许多原生森林被灾难性的森林大火所摧毁。native forests与destroy之间是被动关系,再结合时间状语over the last few years可知用现在完成时的被动语态,故填have been destroyed。
49. 考查with的复合结构。句意:结合这些技术,我们可以将修复工作从一个小岛扩大到整个大陆。此处为“with+宾语+宾补”的复合结构,technologies与combine之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,用过去分词表被动,故填combined。
50. 考查地点状语从句。句意:我们可以让森林恢复到曾经有矿区的土地上,或者重建我们希望在豪勋爵岛恢复的生态系统。空处引导地点状语从句,表示“在……的地方”,在从句中作表语,故填where。
五、短文改错
51.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作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。

I would like to talk about my favorite sport, running. I only take it up a few months ago thanks to my colleagues whom are professional runners. I spend more than two hours run every afternoon. There are several reasons why I am fond this sport. First, it is the pretty cheap and easy sport to try. All I need is a pair of running shoes. Second, this is a sport that can bring us some new friends. Third, since I started this sport I have hardly caught any more common health issue like fever, flu, or cold. What’s more, I can show higher productivity than before and work for longer hours without feeling tiring. All in all, I recommend that everyone tries this sport.
【答案】1. take→took
2. whom→who
3. run→running
4. 在this前面加of
5. the→a
6. us→me
7. 去掉more
8. issue→issues
9. tiring→tired
10. tries→try
【解析】
【导语】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者喜欢的运动——跑步,以及喜欢这项运动的原因。
【详解】
1. 考查时态。句意:我只是在几个月前才开始这样做,这要感谢我的同事们,他们都是专业的跑步者。根据时间状语a few months ago可知,句子时态为一般过去时,谓语动词要用过去式。故将take改成took。
2. 考查定语从句。句意:我只是在几个月前才开始这样做,这要感谢我的同事们,他们都是专业的跑步者。分析可知,此处为定语从句修饰先行词colleagues,先行词指人,在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词who,而关系代词whom只能在定语从句中充当宾语。故将whom改成who。
3. 考查固定搭配。句意:我每天下午花两个多小时跑步。spend some time (in) doing sth. “花费时间做某事”。故将run改成running。
4. 考查固定短语。句意:我喜欢这项运动有几个原因。be fond of“喜欢”。故在this前面加of。
5. 考查冠词。句意:首先,这是一项非常便宜且容易尝试的运动。根据句意可知,此处泛指一项运动,需要定冠词the变成不定冠词。pretty为辅音音素开始的单词,所以用不定冠词a。故将the改成a。
6. 考查代词。句意:其次,这是一项可以给我带来新朋友的运动。根据全文语境可知,文章用第一人称展开。根据语境可知,跑步是一项给我带来新朋友的运动。故将us改为me。
7. 考查形容词比较级。句意:第三,自从我开始这项运动以来,我几乎没有染上任何常见的健康问题,如发烧、流感或感冒。根据句意可知,我几乎没有染上任何常见的健康问题,句中没有比较的意思,所以要把more去掉。故将more去掉。
8. 考查可数名词单复数。句意:第三,自从我开始这项运动以来,我几乎没有发现任何常见的健康问题,如发烧、流感或感冒。根据后面“like fever, flu, or cold”可知,不止一种健康问题,所以issue要用复数形式。故将issue改成issues。
9. 考查形容词。句意:更重要的是,我可以表现出比以前更高的工作效率,工作更长时间而不感到疲倦。tiring意为“令人劳累的”,根据句意可知,此处表示“我”感到劳累,指人的主观感受应用形容词tired“感到劳累的”。故将tiring改成tired。
10. 考查虚拟语气。句意:总之,我建议每个人都尝试这项运动。recommend意为“建议”,后面加宾语从句要用虚拟语气,其结构为should+动词原形,should可省。故将tries改为try。
六、图画作文
52.请你根据下面图片,以“Labor Education Counts”为题写一篇英语短文,内容包括:

注意:1. 词数100左右;
2. 题目已为你写好。
【答案】Labor Education Counts
The picture vividly illustrates that labor education plays an important role in nurturing teenagers’ development, cultivating their all-round development of morality, intelligence and physique. Just like the tree in the picture, it is thriving on the boy’s watering.
When it comes to my experiences of labour, making a fruit plate after Tiktok struck me as an unforgettable one. I first collected some kinds of fruit like apples, oranges, strawberries and bananas. Then came the most challenging part, cutting them into the style in the video, which took me about thirty minutes. After that, I shaped them on a plate into a blossoming flower with delicious sauce. To my delight, when I served it to my families, they all spoke highly of it.
No pains, no gains. Through the hands-on experience, not only do I gain a sense of achievement, but I also appreciate that labour itself is a kind of enjoyment and a must for our personal growth.
