Mom and I were about to finish cooking dinner, and my little niece Jessica came in to set the table. Instead of going to the dish drawer, she went to the pantry where there was a stack of old, mismatched dinner plates on the bottom shelf.
Mom worked for the local Council on Aging as a housekeeper. She did many of the little things that allowed elderly people to stay in their own homes. Most of her clients (客户) got Meals on Wheels, a service in the 1970s. They received a hot lunch and a cold snack to have later in the evening. This is really not very much food. Every evening Mom would make to-go meals on these mismatched plates covered with aluminum foil (铝箔纸), and then deliver them to the people who she knew didn’t get enough to eat.
It was about ten years before microwave ovens became common, so it was important that the food be on a plate that could be reheated in a regular oven. Instead of a cold sandwich and macaroni salad, Mom’s clients dined on Beef Manhattans, pan-fried chicken or meatloaf, along with veggies and a piece of pie or cake. Mom and Dad did this even after Mom left her job, and Mom continued after Dad’s death until all her former clients had either passed away or moved out.
When I was cleaning out Mom’s house after her death, I kept one as a souvenir (纪念品). Whenever I look at it, I will always remember the lessons of unselfishness and caring for one’s neighbors that were modeled for me by my parents.
24. What did the author’s mother do to earn a living in the 1970s?
A. She was a housewife. B. She ran Meals on Wheels.

25. Why did the author’s mother make to-go meals?

27. What can be inferred about the writer in the future?
A. She would sell out all her mother’s old plates.
B. She would do nice things for her community.
C. She would run a restaurant for the homeless.
D. She would become a client in the Meals on Wheels.

Research by the Policy Institute at King’s. College London and Ipsos MORI showed that around 54% of British people will miss some parts of lockdown (封城), including family time. 19% of the 2,442 adults said the last year had been better than they expected it to be when the first lockdown started. The research also found that 32% of people felt the past year had been similar to or better than usual for them personally. People have enjoyed being closer to their family, friends, and neighbours throughout to pandemic (流行病), with 28% feeling closer to their family, 19% to their neighbours, and 31% to their friends.
Professor Bobby Duffy, director of the Policy Institute at King’s College London, said: “There is no doubt that the public would rather the pandemic hadn’t happened at all — but that doesn’t mean it’s been all bad for everyone, or that people see it de influencing their future. What’s surprising about the findings is that for a group of people the last year turned out better than expected, or even better than a normal year.”
He added “Of course, many have been badly influenced. The findings draw attention to a key area of the pandemic, that while action to control the pandemic has been taken, its influence depends hugely on your own circumstances.”
Almost half of the public felt the last year had been worse than expected and 43% expected its mental health because of the pandemic.
The research found that some people plan to continue with some habits they formed in lockdown, with saying they will shop locally more and 38% saying they plan to walk more post-pandemic. Gideon Skinner, research director at Ipsos MORI, said British people expect the pandemic will lead to long-term changes but bold different opinions on what the changes could be.
28. What did the research mainly find?
A. About half of British people would like to keep some parts of lockdown life.
B. Most British people thought they were disconnected from their friends.
C. Life during lockdown was better than British people’s normal life.
D. Lockdown was much worse than British people had thought.
29. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The pandemic deeply influenced people’s future.
B. The public would miss some parts of lockdown.
C The public would prefer there had been no pandemic.
D. The pandemic seemed to be out of control last year.
30. What can we infer from Gideon Skinner’s opinion in the last paragraph?
A. The changes brought by the pandemic are still unclear.
B. People will pay more attention to their family life.
C. The pandemic is helping people form good habits.
D People are losing their confidence in the future.
31. What does the author want to share in this text?
A. Ways to spend time during lockdown.
B. Bad influences of the pandemic on people’s life.
C. People’s social relationships during the pandemic.
D. A research result on people’s life during lockdown.
D
A lunar rover(月球车) has spotted a strange cube-shaped object and will change its official course to check it out, needing 2-3 months to arrive. Official observations suggest it could be a rock pushed upward from the impact(撞击) of an outside object that clearly landed next to it, or a technological relic from previous exploration, or hopefully, perhaps something that can’t be explained.
The Chinese Yutu 2 lunar rover spotted it in its cameras while passing a C-shaped enclosure on the moon’s far side. “Under the dark and deep sky, a circle of winding mountains stood on the extension line of the sky and the moon. On the side, people can’t help but admire the extraordinary work of the universe.” wrote Our Space, a Chinese -language blog connected with the national space agency. The drivers zoomed in(镜头拉近) on the pictures, slowly admiring them one by one. Suddenly, a cube on the northern skyline attracted their attention. The object looked like a “mysterious hut(小屋)”.
Right angles are unusual in nature, usually marking out something artificial if we see them through the faint light of a forest. On the moon, however, there’s not a lot of room for possibilities for a cube. After some days, the camera produced an image to share with the world of their “mysterious hut(小屋)”. The blog post suggested it could be evidence of previous moon missions, but noted the presence of a small impact crater(陨石坑) next to the cube, which could have led to the rising of rocks.
Popular Science magazine said the image could simply be pixelated, as it was taken from far away, Yutu2 landed with Chang’e 4, the first two spacecraft ever to land on the moon’s far side. They’ve in fact had the place to themselves since they arrived in 2019.
32. What can we learn about the cube from the first paragraph?
A. It will change its course soon.
B. It has been identified to be a rock.
C. It will be better observed after 2-3 months.
D. It’s identity is a mystery forever.
33 What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. What people think of the cube.
B. What the cube was like when spotted.
C. How the cube was found.
D. How beautiful the universe is.
34. Which is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “pixelated” in paragraph 4?
A. Clear B. Unclear C. Interesting D. Unique.
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. A lunar rover sent by China 3 months ago.
B. The environment on the moon.
C. An impact crater on the moon.
D. A cube object spotted by China’s lunar rover on the moon.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Scientists visiting tiny Henderson Island in the South Pacific recently made an alarming discovery. ____36____They calculated there were 38 million pieces of plastic. “This is not an issue to ignore. We need to do something now to protect the sea.” said one scientist.
Plastic waste in the sea has long been known about, but only now are we discovering the true extent of the problem. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, so all the plastic ever produced still exists somewhere. Around 95% of plastics made are not recycled, and large amounts enter the sea. Currents(洋流) collect this waste in large circular systems called “gyres”. ____37____
The problem gets worse as plastic breaks down into very small pieces, or “micro plastic”, ____38____ Humans also eat these fish, and micro plastic has even been found in tap water around the world. The plastic on Henderson Island accounts for just 2 seconds’ worth of global annual plastic production. That production will be three times by 2050.
____39____ While diving in Greece, young Boyan Slat noticed there was more plastic waste than fish. He decided right then to dedicate his life to solving this problem. Boyan thought, why move through the sea when the sea can move through you? So he started The Ocean Cleanup project, which places very long floating barriers in the Pacific. Currents then concentrate the waste naturally so it can be collected and recycled. He hopes to reduce the patch by 50% in just five years.
“Sea plastic is a symbol of the negative effects of our lifestyle and technology,” he says. “____40____ Protecting the sea from plastic is a good place to start!”
A. it goes unnoticed and finds its way to human bodies.
B. This is eaten by fish and leads to massive species loss.
C. To work with the currents would help collect the waste.
D. Our aim should be to create a new lifestyle for this century.
E. However, there are some young minds working to clean up the sea for future generations.
F. Although remote and previously untouched by humans, the island was covered in plastic waste.
G. One of the largest is in the Pacific Ocean, an area now known as the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch”.

Lattimore’s wrestling career ____44____ in elementary school when his dad found a flyer(传单) ____45____ a local wrestling club in Virginia Beach and brought him to a practice.

I guess what kept me there was the competitive atmosphere it brought and the friends I was meeting on the way,” he said.

67. 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。
Children played in the yards along the block. I waved to them as I walked by, delivering mail at houses along the way. It was just an ordinary Thursday afternoon.
There were only about 700 people on my route. Over the years, I had gotten to know most of them, if not in person then by their mail. Mrs. Dorman at the end of my route got a package from the Home Shopping Network almost every day. She was an old lady, living alone and I liked being able to bring a little joy into her life with my delivery.
Some mailmen preferred routes where they drove a truck and slipped the mail into a collection of mailboxes without seeing anyone face to face. Not me. I wanted to be outside talking to people.
To be honest, there wasn’t much excitement on a local postal route like mine. Except a sudden rainstorm or a holiday, every day was pretty much the same. But I knew I provided an important service in my job. College acceptances, birthday presents, postcards from all corners of the world——they could all make someone’s day.
I dug in my bag for Mrs. Dorman’s mail——the Home Shopping Network package. She would be glad to get this, whatever it was. Mrs. Dorman often waited for me at the door and we always had a nice talk.
Mrs. Dorman wasn’t at the door today, but I heard the TV going inside, so I knew she was home. Probably watching her shopping shows, I thought. I bent down to put her package by the door.
I froze. What was that? Something like a weak cry. I leaned closer to the door. Maybe the sound came from the TV? “Mrs. Dorman?” I called. No answer. And then the same weak cry. I tried to open the door, but it was locked. So I pressed my ear against it.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
This time I clearly heard the words, “Help me!”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“What had happened that day?” I asked Mrs. Dorman after she came back home from the hospital.

Mom and I were about to finish cooking dinner, and my little niece Jessica came in to set the table. Instead of going to the dish drawer, she went to the pantry where there was a stack of old, mismatched dinner plates on the bottom shelf.
Mom worked for the local Council on Aging as a housekeeper. She did many of the little things that allowed elderly people to stay in their own homes. Most of her clients (客户) got Meals on Wheels, a service in the 1970s. They received a hot lunch and a cold snack to have later in the evening. This is really not very much food. Every evening Mom would make to-go meals on these mismatched plates covered with aluminum foil (铝箔纸), and then deliver them to the people who she knew didn’t get enough to eat.
It was about ten years before microwave ovens became common, so it was important that the food be on a plate that could be reheated in a regular oven. Instead of a cold sandwich and macaroni salad, Mom’s clients dined on Beef Manhattans, pan-fried chicken or meatloaf, along with veggies and a piece of pie or cake. Mom and Dad did this even after Mom left her job, and Mom continued after Dad’s death until all her former clients had either passed away or moved out.
When I was cleaning out Mom’s house after her death, I kept one as a souvenir (纪念品). Whenever I look at it, I will always remember the lessons of unselfishness and caring for one’s neighbors that were modeled for me by my parents.

Research by the Policy Institute at King’s. College London and Ipsos MORI showed that around 54% of British people will miss some parts of lockdown (封城), including family time. 19% of the 2,442 adults said the last year had been better than they expected it to be when the first lockdown started. The research also found that 32% of people felt the past year had been similar to or better than usual for them personally. People have enjoyed being closer to their family, friends, and neighbours throughout to pandemic (流行病), with 28% feeling closer to their family, 19% to their neighbours, and 31% to their friends.
Professor Bobby Duffy, director of the Policy Institute at King’s College London, said: “There is no doubt that the public would rather the pandemic hadn’t happened at all — but that doesn’t mean it’s been all bad for everyone, or that people see it de influencing their future. What’s surprising about the findings is that for a group of people the last year turned out better than expected, or even better than a normal year.”
He added “Of course, many have been badly influenced. The findings draw attention to a key area of the pandemic, that while action to control the pandemic has been taken, its influence depends hugely on your own circumstances.”
Almost half of the public felt the last year had been worse than expected and 43% expected its mental health because of the pandemic.
The research found that some people plan to continue with some habits they formed in lockdown, with saying they will shop locally more and 38% saying they plan to walk more post-pandemic. Gideon Skinner, research director at Ipsos MORI, said British people expect the pandemic will lead to long-term changes but bold different opinions on what the changes could be.

B. People will pay more attention to their family life.
C. The pandemic is helping people form good habits.
D. People are losing their confidence in the future.
31. What does the author want to share in this text?

A lunar rover(月球车) has spotted a strange cube-shaped object and will change its official course to check it out, needing 2-3 months to arrive. Official observations suggest it could be a rock pushed upward from the impact(撞击) of an outside object that clearly landed next to it, or a technological relic from previous exploration, or hopefully, perhaps something that can’t be explained.
The Chinese Yutu 2 lunar rover spotted it in its cameras while passing a C-shaped enclosure on the moon’s far side. “Under the dark and deep sky, a circle of winding mountains stood on the extension line of the sky and the moon. On the side, people can’t help but admire the extraordinary work of the universe.” wrote Our Space, a Chinese -language blog connected with the national space agency. The drivers zoomed in(镜头拉近) on the pictures, slowly admiring them one by one. Suddenly, a cube on the northern skyline attracted their attention. The object looked like a “mysterious hut(小屋)”.
Right angles are unusual in nature, usually marking out something artificial if we see them through the faint light of a forest. On the moon, however, there’s not a lot of room for possibilities for a cube. After some days, the camera produced an image to share with the world of their “mysterious hut(小屋)”. The blog post suggested it could be evidence of previous moon missions, but noted the presence of a small impact crater(陨石坑) next to the cube, which could have led to the rising of rocks.
Popular Science magazine said the image could simply be pixelated, as it was taken from far away, Yutu2 landed with Chang’e 4, the first two spacecraft ever to land on the moon’s far side. They’ve in fact had the place to themselves since they arrived in 2019.
32. What can we learn about the cube from the first paragraph?
A. It will change its course soon.
B. It has been identified to be a rock.
C. It will be better observed after 2-3 months.
D. It’s identity is a mystery forever.
33. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. What people think of the cube.
B. What the cube was like when spotted.
C. How the cube was found.
D. How beautiful the universe is.
34. Which is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “pixelated” in paragraph 4?
A. Clear B. Unclear C. Interesting D. Unique.
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. A lunar rover sent by China 3 months ago.
B. The environment on the moon.
C. An impact crater on the moon.
D. A cube object spotted by China’s lunar rover on the moon.
【答案】32. C 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。讲述了中国的“玉兔二号”月球车无意间发现了一个立方体形状的物体,引起了人们对该物体的关注与推测,因为直角在自然界中是不同寻常的。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“A lunar rover(月球车) has spotted a strange cube-shaped object and will change its official course to check it out, needing 2-3 months to arrive.(一辆月球车发现了一个奇怪的立方体形状的物体,并将改变其官方路线去查看它,需要2-3个月才能到达。)”可知,月球车要改变路线去查看这个立方体,但需要2-3月才能到达,所以可以推断出,2-3月之后,这个立方体将会被更好地观察。故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“The Chinese Yutu 2 lunar rover spotted it in its cameras while passing a C-shaped enclosure on the moon’s far side.(中国的“玉兔二号”月球车在经过月球背面一个C形围场时,通过相机发现了它。)”以及最后最后两句“The drivers zoomed in(镜头拉近) on the pictures, slowly admiring them one by one. Suddenly, a cube on the northern skyline attracted their attention. The object looked like a “mysterious hut(小屋)”.(驾驶员们把照片放大,慢慢地一个接一个地欣赏。突然,北边天际线上的一个立方体吸引了他们的注意。这个物体看起来像一个“神秘的小屋”。)”可知,第二段主要讲述了驾驶员们在欣赏“玉兔二号”拍摄的照片时,无意间发现了这个立方体。所以C选项“这个立方体是怎样被发现的。”能很好地概括这一段的主旨大意。故选C。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“as it was taken from far away (因为它是被“玉兔二号”在遥远的地方拍摄的)”可知,这里的it指代的是上文出现的image“图像”,因为图像是在遥远的地方拍摄的,所以可以推断出它是不清晰的。A. Clear清楚的;B. Unclear不清楚的;C. Interesting有趣的;D. Unique独特的。所以B选项与画线词pixelated“像素化的”意思最接近。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“A lunar rover(月球车) has spotted a strange cube-shaped object and will change its official course to check it out, needing 2-3 months to arrive.(一辆月球车发现了一个奇怪的立方体形状的物体,并将改变其官方路线去查看它,需要2-3个月才能到达。)”可知,文章在开头就指出了一辆月球车发现了一个立方体形状的物体,文章围绕该线索展开,所以该句为文章的主题句。再结合第二段第一句“The Chinese Yutu 2 lunar rover spotted it in its cameras while passing a C-shaped enclosure on the moon’s far side.(中国的“玉兔二号”月球车在经过月球背面一个C形围场时,通过相机发现了它。)”可知,这个月球车是中国的“玉兔二号”。所以D选项“中国的月球车在月球上发现了一个立方体物体。”可以很好地概括文章的内容,适合作为文章的标题。故选D。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Scientists visiting tiny Henderson Island in the South Pacific recently made an alarming discovery. ____36____They calculated there were 38 million pieces of plastic. “This is not an issue to ignore. We need to do something now to protect the sea.” said one scientist.
Plastic waste in the sea has long been known about, but only now are we discovering the true extent of the problem. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, so all the plastic ever produced still exists somewhere. Around 95% of plastics made are not recycled, and large amounts enter the sea. Currents(洋流) collect this waste in large circular systems called “gyres”. ____37____
The problem gets worse as plastic breaks down into very small pieces, or “micro plastic”, ____38____ Humans also eat these fish, and micro plastic has even been found in tap water around the world. The plastic on Henderson Island accounts for just 2 seconds’ worth of global annual plastic production. That production will be three times by 2050.
____39____ While diving in Greece, young Boyan Slat noticed there was more plastic waste than fish. He decided right then to dedicate his life to solving this problem. Boyan thought, why move through the sea when the sea can move through you? So he started The Ocean Cleanup project, which places very long floating barriers in the Pacific. Currents then concentrate the waste naturally so it can be collected and recycled. He hopes to reduce the patch by 50% in just five years.
“Sea plastic is a symbol of the negative effects of our lifestyle and technology,” he says. “____40____ Protecting the sea from plastic is a good place to start!”
A. it goes unnoticed and finds its way to human bodies.
B. This is eaten by fish and leads to massive species loss.
C. To work with the currents would help collect the waste.
D. Our aim should be to create a new lifestyle for this century.
E. However, there are some young minds working to clean up the sea for future generations.
F. Although remote and previously untouched by humans, the island was covered in plastic waste.
G. One of the largest is in the Pacific Ocean, an area now known as the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch”.
【答案】36. F 37. G 38. B 39. E 40. D

67. 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。
Children played in the yards along the block. I waved to them as I walked by, delivering mail at houses along the way. It was just an ordinary Thursday afternoon.
There were only about 700 people on my route. Over the years, I had gotten to know most of them, if not in person then by their mail. Mrs. Dorman at the end of my route got a package from the Home Shopping Network almost every day. She was an old lady, living alone and I liked being able to bring a little joy into her life with my delivery.
Some mailmen preferred routes where they drove a truck and slipped the mail into a collection of mailboxes without seeing anyone face to face. Not me. I wanted to be outside talking to people.
To be honest, there wasn’t much excitement on a local postal route like mine. Except a sudden rainstorm or a holiday, every day was pretty much the same. But I knew I provided an important service in my job. College acceptances, birthday presents, postcards from all corners of the world——they could all make someone’s day.
I dug in my bag for Mrs. Dorman’s mail——the Home Shopping Network package. She would be glad to get this, whatever it was. Mrs. Dorman often waited for me at the door and we always had a nice talk.
Mrs. Dorman wasn’t at the door today, but I heard the TV going inside, so I knew she was home. Probably watching her shopping shows, I thought. I bent down to put her package by the door.
I froze. What was that? Something like a weak cry. I leaned closer to the door. Maybe the sound came from the TV? “Mrs. Dorman?” I called. No answer. And then the same weak cry. I tried to open the door, but it was locked. So I pressed my ear against it.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
This time I clearly heard the words, “Help me!”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“What had happened that day?” I asked Mrs. Dorman after she came back home from the hospital.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
This time I clearly heard the words, “Help me!” A chill of horror suddenly sweeping over me, I was hit by a terrible idea——Mrs. Dorman might be in danger! Taking a deep breath, I kept pushing against the door without the slightest hesitation until the latch finally broke. Forcing the door open, I was startled to find Mrs. Dorman lying under the cupboard, moaning in pain. The moment Mrs. Dorman noticed my approach, her pale face lit up, as if seizing a glimmer of hope. Then the next few minutes saw me move the cupboard with all my might, cautiously help her sit on the sofa and call the ambulance promptly. A while later, the doctors arrived, rushing Mrs. Dorman to the hospital for a complete check-up.
“What had happened that day?” I asked Mrs. Dorman after she came back home from the hospital. Mrs. Dorman explained that she was watching TV when she suddenly lost her balance. At that critical moment, she managed to grab the cupboard, but unfortunately, it came down on top of her. Much to my relief, Mrs. Dorman was fine except a pain in her shoulder. However, thoughts flashing back to that horrible moment, I felt my heart was still fluttering with fear, “Do you know what I was thinking when I was lying under the cupboard?” Mrs. Dorman asked me. I shook my head. “I didn’t get into a panic. I knew you would come just like you do every day. That’s what gave me comfort,” she uttered, her eyes twinkling with grateful tears and a smile spreading across her wrinkled face.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者是一名邮差,他每天都经过相同的路线,熟悉线路上的每一户人家。一次,作者在送邮件的时候,发现了Mrs. Dorman的异常,最终救了Mrs. Dorman。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“这次我清楚地听到了那句话:“救救我!””以及第二段首句““那天发生了什么事?” Mrs. Dorman从医院回来后,我问她。”可知,第一段可描写作者是如何救了Mrs. Dorman。
②由第二段首句内容““那天发生了什么事?” Mrs. Dorman从医院回来后,我问她。”可知,第二段可描写Mrs. Dorman讲述那天所发生的事情,以及Mrs. Dorman对作者的感激。
2.续写线索:送邮件——前往——发现异常——进入——受伤——恢复健康——感激
3.词汇激活

①注意:notice/note

【点睛】【高分句型1】The moment Mrs. Dorman noticed my approach, her pale face lit up, as if seizing a glimmer of hope.(运用了the moment引导的时间状语从句)
【高分句型2】Mrs. Dorman explained that she was watching TV when she suddenly lost her balance.(运用了that引导的宾语从句)
