When Central Bucks South became one of the first Philadelphia-area high schools to close due to fear of novel coronavirus exposure in early March, 16-year-old sophomore Andrew Chen knew that things were not going to return to normal as quickly as some of his peers hoped．
But still, the change from seeing his friends on the swim team during daily practices to learning alone at home was jarring． "I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted," Chen said．
The coronavirus has upended everyone's lives, but for students, the disruption feels particularly acute． Schools closed and graduation ceremonies were canceled． Summer plans, like camps and internships (实习),are up in the air．
But right now, many students are trying to stay connected, struggling with misinformation, and figuring out the best ways they can help through online method．
For Josh Harycki, 17, a senior student at the Ship-ley School in Philadelphia, the best way to contribute was to create a "social distancing pledge (承诺)" for young people．
"I saw a lot of younger generations not paying attention," he said． "They were still going out, hanging out with people． 1 thought that there had to be a way to reach younger folks, who were probably not watching the news．"
Harycki launched a call to action on social media and then built a website with a map that tracked the locations of people who'd signed the pledge． The site also shares links to accurate sources of information like the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention．
Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can't connect with their friends in the same way, so he created the social distancing pledge to stress that while everyone might be physically distant, they're still connected．
"Part of what we're highlighting is that you might feel like you're the only one taking this seriously, but our map shows that you're not alone," he said．
4．What does the underlined word "jarring" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．natural B．disturbing C．necessary D．reasonable
5．Why does the author describe Andrew Chen's experience in the text?
A．To show how the coronavirus affected students' lives．
B．To explain what worried students most when schools closed．
C．To illustrate the appropriate reaction to the closure of school．
D．To present the different views of students toward the coronavirus．
6．Who does Harycki mainly want to reach out to?
A．Friends who are worried and bored．
B．Folks taking the coronavirus seriously．
C．Younger generations trying to contribute．
D．Young people who are not aware of the situation．
7．What's Harycki's purpose in creating the "social distancing pledge"?
A．To convince young people to stay at home．
B．To track those people infected with the coronavirus．
C．To inform young folks of latest news about the coronavirus．
D．To show young people they shouldn't be concerned about the coronavirus．
C
Once a circle missed a wedge (楔子) ． The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece． But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly, it admired the flowers along the way． It chatted with worms． It enjoyed the sunshine． Finally it found a piece that fit perfectly． It was so happy． Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice flowers or talk to the worms． When it realized how different the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away．
In some strange sense we are more whole when we are missing something． The man who has everything is in some ways a poor man． He will never know what it feels like to hope and to nourish (滋润) his soul with the dream of something better． He will never know the experience of having someone who loves him give him something he has always wanted or never had．
There is wholeness about the person who has come to terms with his limitations, who has been brave enough to let go of his unrealistic dreams and does not feel like a failure for doing so． There is wholeness about the man or woman who has learned that he or she is strong enough to go through a tragedy and survive一he or she can lose someone and still feel like a complete person．
Life is more like a baseball season, when even the best team loses one third of its games and even the worst team has its days of brilliance． Our goal is to win more games than we lose． When we accept that imperfection is part of being human, and when we can continue rolling through life and appreciate it, we will have achieved wholeness that others can only long for．
8．Which may be an example of being whole?
A．A person has everything．
B．A person accepts his or her limitations．
C．A person loves someone and is also loved．
D．A person feels blue for dropping unrealistic goals．
9．How is a baseball season similar to life?
A．Easy come, easy go．
B．Failure is the mother of success．
C．Energy and persistence conquer all things．
D．Some battles you win and some battles you lose．
10．How does the author clarify his idea?
A．Mainly by arguing． B．Mainly by informing．
C．Mainly by comparing． D．Mainly by reasoning．
11．What can be the best title for the passage?
A．No pains, no gains B．Be whole in our life
C．Pursue perfection in life D．Life without mistakes is whole
D
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are compounds(化合物;复合物) that are set to solve some tough challenges: producing water in the desert, removing greenhouse gases from the air and storing dangerous gases more safely．
The Arizona desert is really dry． Anyone stuck in it without water would die from dehydration (脱水) within three days, unless he had one of Omar Yaghi's next-generation water harvesters, who is a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley． Although daytime wetness is only about 10 percent, this rises to 40 percent at night, which means there's enough water in the atmosphere to support life - if it can be transformed into liquid form．
That's exactly what Yaghi's invention does． It's about the size of a small microwave oven, designed to suck the water from the air at night and turn it into drinking water the next day using only the heat of the sun as its power source． What makes it work is a special material called a MOF, which at normal temperatures attracts water molecules (分子) onto the surface of its internal small holes． Warm it up and get the water, each harvest producing one-third of a cup of pure drinking water． "A device the size of a washing machine could produce enough water for the basic needs of a household," says Yaghi．
These crystalline (结晶的) groups of metals linked by organic molecules can be made into materials with an extremely high absorption ability, attracting specific molecules to their surfaces． In this way, MOFs cling to a variety of liquids and gases．
MOFs work thanks to their distinctive structure． In fact, one MOF the size of a sugar cube has so many small holes that they would cover an area as large as six football fields． MOFs are also extremely stable, light and have many different uses: their molecular structure can be varied to attract specific molecules． Adding a small amount of heat or pressure causes the MOF to give what it's holding． More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications．
12．Why is the Arizona desert mentioned in the second paragraph?
A．To introduce water harvesters．
B．To stress the importance of water．
C．To show the severity of its condition．
D．To express the urgent need for water there．
13．What plays a vital role in water harvesters?
A．Solar energy． B．Water molecules．
C．Metal-organic frameworks． D．MOFs' internal small holes．
14．Which can explain the phrase "cling to" underlined in paragraph 4?
A．Give off． B．Turn into． C．Hold onto． D．Break down．
15．What will probably be covered in the following paragraphs?
A．The future of the MOF technology．
B．Other uses of the MOF technology．
C．The improvement to the MOF technology．
D．Possible limitations of the MOF technology．

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。
Before our wedding, my fiance(未婚夫) and I were very excited about shopping for our first house． So, we took a look at several houses, yet as our funds were limited, none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory．
One agent recommended a house in particular． Although her description of the house sounded very wonderful, the price was beyond our range, so we declined． However, she kept urging us to have a look at least．
We finally agreed and went to take a look． It was lovely at first sight． It was small but charming, overlooking a quiet beautiful lake． Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a kind and hospitable elderly couple, we felt the warmth and happiness of the marriage within that house． It was exactly the house we wanted! Perfect as it was, the price remained much too high for us． But every day, we could sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of what it would be like to live there．
Days later, we made an offer, which was far below the asking price． As the price was so low, we were afraid that they would laugh it off． Surprisingly, they didn't laugh at us． They renewed their offer instead． It was also much more than we could actually afford, but far less than the original asking price．
The next day, we got a disappointing message that another buyer offered a much higher price． Even so, we made up our minds to talk with the owners directly． We made our final offer, which was still thousands of dollars less than the other buyer 's bid． We knew it, yet we decided to have a try． Nobody knew if we could get it．

第三部分 写作
答案：
Dear Xiao Ming
I'm sorry to learn that you intend to drop out for high stress． As one of your friends, I hope that you can give up the idea．
First of all, you should have a right attitude towards stress． Stress is a small part in our normal life． Second, I suggest you calm down and find out the cause of your stress and manage to come up with ways of dealing with it． As to how to reduce stress, you may take exercise, listen to music or turn to your teachers or classmates for help．
I hope that you can take my suggestion into account and I'm convinced that you will make a right decision．
Yours truly,
Li Hua
答案：
Paragraph 1:
We went to the owners' home, only to find the other buyer visiting the owners too． He said that the price he offered was much higher than ours． He begged the owners to sell it to him, and then the owner asked the buyer, "Why do you want this house?" "For investment," the buyer replied． "As it is near the city, I can rent it to earn money．．．" The owner thought for a while, looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, sir． I can't sell my house to you, because I am looking for someone who truly loves it, not just for money．"
Paragraph 2:
The owner looked at us and said, "I decide to sell my house to you!" Seeing us sitting by the lake all those times, he knew how much we loved the place and that we'd appreciate the years of work they had put into their house． He realized he would make a loss by selling it to us, but it was worthwhile since we were the people they wanted to sell their house to． We were told to consider the difference in the price as "an early wedding present"． That's how we found our house and how I learned that when people are kind, they are not strangers, but friends we haven't met yet．

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。
Before our wedding, my fiance(未婚夫) and I were very excited about shopping for our first house． So, we took a look at several houses, yet as our funds were limited, none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory．
One agent recommended a house in particular． Although her description of the house sounded very wonderful, the price was beyond our range, so we declined． However, she kept urging us to have a look at least．
We finally agreed and went to take a look． It was lovely at first sight． It was small but charming, overlooking a quiet beautiful lake． Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a kind and hospitable elderly couple, we felt the warmth and happiness of the marriage within that house． It was exactly the house we wanted! Perfect as it was, the price remained much too high for us． But every day, we could sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of what it would be like to live there．
Days later, we made an offer, which was far below the asking price． As the price was so low, we were afraid that they would laugh it off． Surprisingly, they didn't laugh at us． They renewed their offer instead． It was also much more than we could actually afford, but far less than the original asking price．
The next day, we got a disappointing message that another buyer offered a much higher price． Even so, we made up our minds to talk with the owners directly． We made our final offer, which was still thousands of dollars less than the other buyer 's bid． We knew it, yet we decided to have a try． Nobody knew if we could get it．

第三部分 写作
答案：
Dear Xiao Ming
I'm sorry to learn that you intend to drop out for high stress． As one of your friends, I hope that you can give up the idea．
First of all, you should have a right attitude towards stress． Stress is a small part in our normal life． Second, I suggest you calm down and find out the cause of your stress and manage to come up with ways of dealing with it． As to how to reduce stress, you may take exercise, listen to music or turn to your teachers or classmates for help．
I hope that you can take my suggestion into account and I'm convinced that you will make a right decision．
Yours truly,
Li Hua
答案：
Paragraph 1:
We went to the owners' home, only to find the other buyer visiting the owners too． He said that the price he offered was much higher than ours． He begged the owners to sell it to him, and then the owner asked the buyer, "Why do you want this house?" "For investment," the buyer replied． "As it is near the city, I can rent it to earn money．．．" The owner thought for a while, looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, sir． I can't sell my house to you, because I am looking for someone who truly loves it, not just for money．"
Paragraph 2:
The owner looked at us and said, "I decide to sell my house to you!" Seeing us sitting by the lake all those times, he knew how much we loved the place and that we'd appreciate the years of work they had put into their house． He realized he would make a loss by selling it to us, but it was worthwhile since we were the people they wanted to sell their house to． We were told to consider the difference in the price as "an early wedding present"． That's how we found our house and how I learned that when people are kind, they are not strangers, but friends we haven't met yet．
