1. associated　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，所填的词作定语，由于associate和possibilities有逻辑上的动宾关系，所以用过去分词作定语。

2. the　考查冠词。此处是“one ..., the other ...”结构，意为“一个……，另一个……”。

3. going　考查非谓语动词。recommend后接动词时要用动词­ing形式，所以填going。

5. decorations　考查名词复数。分析句子结构可知，所填的词作主语，所以用名词形式。根据后面的are可知，该词要用复数形式。

6. especially　考查副词。分析句子结构可知，所填的词修饰介词短语作状语，所以用副词形式。

7. but　考查连词。分析句子结构可知，前后语境为转折关系，故填but。

8. lower　考查比较级。所给的词是形容词，根据后面的than可知，此处要用比较级。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。在泰国南部的浅水区，一种濒临灭绝的海洋哺乳动物儒艮已经十分罕见。近期，它们被发现重现浅水区。

1. was released　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句子的主语是a video，是单数概念，谓语动词应用第三人称单数；video与release之间是被动关系，应用被动语态；再结合时间状语“the other day”可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填was released。

2. to breathe　考查非谓语动词。根据语境并分析句子结构可知，此处应用动词不定式作目的状语。

3. closely 　考查副词。此处修饰形容词related，应用副词closely“密切地”。

7. freer　考查形容词比较级。根据语境和下文的than usual 可知，此处应用形容词比较级。注意：free的比较级是freer，最高级是freest。

8. a　考查冠词。去年，在泰国水域发现的死亡儒艮数量空前。a record number of表示“数量空前的”，为固定短语。

9. holding　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，after引导时间状语从句，从句主语是images，谓语是spread，因主语的后置定语(of Thai animal doctors ... dugong)太长，谓语太短，而把谓语提到了后置定语前。此处介词of后跟动名词的复合结构作宾语。因hold与doctors之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故填holding。

10. which　考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处在此引导非限制性定语从句，且在从句中作主语，指代先行词plastic waste, 故用关系代词which。

Ⅰ.  阅读理解

A

(2020·山东济南5月模拟)Known for its complicated, seemingly wavelike sandstone walls and the rays of sunlight that shine into them, Arizona's Antelope Canyon (羚羊峡谷) is an everlasting attraction for tourists. It's a slot (狭缝) canyon, meaning it formed from water carving it out over millions of years. It sits about 3,700 feet above sea level and takes its name from the antelope that once lived in it.

The canyon forms part of Lake Powell Navajo Tribal Park in the Navajo Nation. The Navajo Nation limits visits to either the Upper or Lower Antelope Canyon to two hours and requires all visitors to be led by authorised guides. If you're planning a trip and need help with deciding which area to visit, keep these recommendations in mind.

·When: Tours are available twice a day during the week year­round, though exact times vary by season; tours are not available on weekends or major holidays.

·Cost: Tour companies' fees vary, but tickets, including entrance to the park, generally start at around $60 for 90­minute tours of Upper Antelope Canyon. Tours of Lower Antelope Canyon tend to be around an hour and generally cost around $40 per adult and $20 for children.

·Must­know tip: Most of Arizona does not follow daylight saving time (夏令时), though the Navajo Nation, where Antelope Canyon is located, does. Check with your tour operator to confirm the precise time of your tour.

Antelope Canyon receives tons of visitors and, in order to protect the canyon walls from damage, no bags of any kind are permitted in either the Upper or Lower section. Also keep in mind that while most tour companies welcome small children, not all of them will.

1. What makes Antelope Canyon attractive?

A. Its remarkable height.

B. The origin of its name.

C. Its unique natural feature.

D. The process of its formation.

2. How much may a couple pay for a one­hour tour in Lower Antelope Canyon?

A 23­year­old British woman has invented a product that she hopes will one day take the place of single­use plastic. The new product is made by combining fishing waste and algae (藻类)．

Lucy Hughes created the material, called MarinaTex, for her final year project at the University of Sussex. She continued her research after she left the university.

On November 13th, the James Dyson Foundation announced that Hughes was the international winner of the 2019 James Dyson Award for design.

MarinaTex is edible, meaning it can be eaten without danger. Hughes says it also is strong and stable. But unlike plastic, MarinaTex breaks down in four to six weeks under normal conditions and does not pollute the soil.

The inventor said she is concerned about the growing amounts of plastics in ocean waters. She noted one report that there would be more plastic than fish in the world's oceans by the year 2050. The United Nations estimates that 100 million tons of plastic waste has already been left in the oceans.

Hughes also was investigating ways to reduce the amount of waste from the fishing industry. The industry produces an estimated 50 million tons of waste worldwide each year, UN officials say.

Hughes told Reuters that she was trying to work out how she could use the waste stream and add value to that waste. Examining fish parts left over from processing helped to give her the idea for a material that was useful and did not harm the environment.

To create a strong material, Hughes added the molecule chitosan, which comes from sea creatures like crabs, and agar, a material from red algae.

After months of testing, Hughes produced a strong, flexible sheet that forms at temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius.

Inventor James Dyson said that MarinaTex is “stronger, safer and much more sustainable” than the plastic polyethylene. It is also easier to break down than other possible replacement products for polyethylene, the material that single­use plastic bags are made of.

Hughes will receive about $41,000 in prize money as the first place winner of the James Dyson Award. She told Reuters that she plans to use the money to better develop the product and ways to mass produce it.

4. When did Lucy Hughes create MarinaTex?

A. At university.

B. After graduation.

C. Before going to university.

D. After winning the James Dyson Award.

5. What's true about MarinaTex?

A. It is delicious.

B. It is environmentally friendly.

C. It is a type of plastics.

D. It exists for a long time in nature.

6. What helped to give her the idea for MarinaTex?

A. Observing the process of fishing.

B. Studying different parts of a fish.

C. Checking waste from the fishing industry.

D. Examining leftover fish parts after cooking.

7. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A. Entertainment.　　 B. Education.

C. Lifestyle. D. Technology.

4. A　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Lucy Hughes created the material, called MarinaTex, for her final year project at the University of Sussex.”可知，露西·休斯为她在苏塞克斯大学最后一年的项目创作了一种叫作MarinaTex的材料，故选A。

5. B　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“But unlike plastic, MarinaTex breaks down in four to six weeks under normal conditions and does not pollute the soil.”可知，与塑料不同的是，MarinaTex在正常情况下会在4到6周内分解，不会污染土壤，由此可知，MarinaTex是环保的，故选B。

6. C　细节理解题。根据第七段中的“Examining fish parts left over from processing helped to give her the idea for a material that was useful and did not harm the environment.”可知检查渔业废料让露西·休斯产生了发明MarinaTex的想法，故选C。

7. D　文章出处题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段中的“A 23­year­old British woman has invented a product that she hopes will one day take the place of single­use plastic.”可知，本文主要介绍了一位23岁的英国女士发明了一种有望取代一次性塑料的环保产品，这属于技术范畴，因此文章最有可能出现在报纸的技术版块，故选D。

Ⅱ. 读后续写

(2020·山东潍坊模拟)阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

“Mommy, don't go，” my three­year­old son screamed as I walked to the door. My fifteen­year­old leaned against the kitchen counter with his arms folded across his chest, not screaming, but glaring at me as I pulled his little brother off my legs.

“Are you mad at me too？”

“You spend all your time taking care of other people's kids, but what about us？” Dylan left angrily.

I was shocked and a little hurt. How could my own child not understand that the work I was doing was saving lives? Then the answer hit me. He didn't know, because he had never seen what Healing the Children actually did. Dylan had heard the stories of sick children, but had never once looked into the eyes of a child and understood the hard truth — that without our help, the children would likely die.

“Get dressed. You are going with me，” I said.

I spent the drive explaining the case of Hector to my son, who pretended to ignore me the entire time. “He's seven, only weighs thirty pounds and is very sick. He has a heart condition called Tetralogy of Fallot, which could kill him. It is a miracle (奇迹) that he is still alive.”

I went on to explain that it took a team of volunteer medical staff to get Hector to the hospital from his remote village and care for him while he was there. Still, Dylan seemed unimpressed.

We stopped at a convenience store for water and snacks. Dylan had one large and one small Slurpee (思乐冰饮料). He said the small one was for Hector. I doubted whether the little guy would be able to drink it, but remained silent. This was the first interest Dylan had shown in being here. I wasn't about to ruin it.

I stopped at the nurses' station to check on Hector's progress while Dylan went to his room. Our patient was recovering physically, but the nurse was concerned that Hector was struggling emotionally. She said, “Kids usually bounce back fast, but he hardly speaks and never smiles.”

注意：续写词数应为150左右。

Imagine my surprise when I heard laughter from Hector's room. ____________

On the way home that night, Dylan asked me several times whether Hector would be okay. ________________________________________________________

【参考范文】

Imagine my surprise when I heard laughter from Hector's room. I entered and found Dylan sitting on the edge of Hector's bed wiping pieces of frozen drink from Hector's mouth. Both boys were giggling and Hector was apparently enjoying the company. I spent the rest of the day speaking to doctors and watching my son playing with the special little boy. It was truly amazing to watch them interact, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Perhaps to the two of them it was.

On the way home that night, Dylan asked me several times whether Hector would be okay. I told him this boy would get well but he had a hard road ahead of him. My son seemed to be lost in thought for a while. Then he declared his decision to join Healing the Children as a volunteer to help Hector and other children. I never thought that a moody teenager would take up the voluntary work and never again complain about his mother's crazy work schedule.
