Isabel witnessed many profound changes that the country has undergone, including the foundation of the People’s Republic of China.Isabel’s parents were Canadian and arrived in China in 1912. They dedicated themselves to setting up schools and education institutions in southwest China. Crook herself was more interested in anthropology (人类学) and ethnic minorities in China. While Isabel’s parents left China in 1942, Isabel would remain and continues to call the country home to this very day. The 107-year-old has lived 90 years of her life in China.As a foreign girl born in an Asian country that was undergoing significant changes, she had every reason to be curious about what was going on around her. At the age of 23, Crook graduated from a Canadian college with a master’s degree and began carrying out field research in rural areas in Sichuan Province.In the early 1940s, Isabel met the British communist David Crook and the two were married in 1942. Their life journey together would continue until David died in 2000. In 1947, the couple was warmly welcomed by the Communist Party of China (CPC) to observe and study the revolutionary land reforms taking place in China. In 1948, the Foreign Affairs Committee of the CPC asked Isabel and David to stay and teach at a newly established foreign affairs school. The school was the forerunner of today’s Beijing Foreign Studies University. The couple brought new Western teaching methodologies to the classroom, laying vital foundations for foreign-language education in China. Their passion for teaching lasted decades and their students have served as diplomats (外交官) to facilitate China’s peaceful engagement with other countries.Considering the trials and difficulties Isabel has tackled during her lifetime, we imagine she is weathering the current global storm with the same determination and adventurous spirit that has kept her in China all these years. In a nod 1o Isabel’s devotion, in 2019 she was awarded the Medal of Friendship, China’s highest award for foreigners who have made economic or social contributions to the country.4. What can we know from the second paragraph?A. Isabel’s parents were born in China.B. Isabel had a deep affection for China.C. Isabel’s parents were attracted by the ethnic minorities in China.D. Isabel left China with her parents for the domestic situation in 1942.5. Why was Isabel curious about the situation in China as a young girl?A.

She has carried out field research in rural areas in Sichuan Province.B. She has laid vital foundations for foreign-language education in China.C. She has combined Western teaching methodologies with traditional ones.D. She has served as a diplomat to facilitate China’s peaceful engagement.7. Which word best describes Isabel Crook as a foreign expert?A. Proud. B. Polite. C. Independent. D. Devoted.CWhat do Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen, and Frodo all have in common with the heroes of ancient myths? Joseph Campbell studied myths from all over the world and published a book called “The Hero with a Thousand Faces”, retelling dozens of stories and explaining how each represents the mono-myth, or Hero’s Journey. So, what is the “hero’s journey”?He thinks of it as a cycle in his book. The journey begins with the hero receiving a mysterious message, an invitation, or a challenge. After crossing the threshold from his safe home to adventure, with some help probably from someone older, wiser, our hero solves a riddle, slays a monster, escapes from a trap. The hero’s darkest hour then comes, when he faces death and possibly even dies, only to be reborn. As a result, the hero claims some treasure, special recognition, or power, which can vary between stories. After all that adventure, the hero returns to his ordinary world, but upgrades to a new level. Nothing is quite the same once you are a hero.The Hero’s Journey myth exists in all human cultures and keeps getting updated, because we humans reflect on our world through symbolic stories of our own lives. You leave your comfort zone, have an experience that transforms you, and then you recover and do it again. You don’t literally slay dragons or fight Voldemort, but you face problems just as scary. Joseph Campbell said, “In the cave you fear to enter lies the treasure you seek.”What is the symbolic cave then you fear to enter? Auditions for the school play? Baseball tryouts? The paper due?Watch for this formula in books, movies, and TV shows you come across. You will certainly see it again. Also be sensitive to it in your own life. Listen for your call to adventure. Accept the challenge. Conquer your fear and claim the treasure you seek. And then, do it all over again.8. What is the correct order of the following stages of the “Hero’s journey”?①Return to the ordinary world but outgrow his old life.②Receive the call to adventure and assistance from a wiser.③Set out on the adventure and go through a series of tough trials.④Face the life-or-death crisis and be reborn with some special power.A. ①②③④ B. ②④①③ C. ②③④① D. ③②④①9. Why is Hero’s Journey myth so popular?A. Because it’s a way to reflect on our world. B. Because it’s a way to learn about the past.C. Because these stories are always being updated. D. Because these stories are part of human culture.10. Which of the following may the author disagree with?A. We all need a “cave” to hide in face of danger. B. Our comfort zone will hinder our development.C. Difficulties we face tend to be treasures in life. D. We should overcome our fears faced with danger.11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Hero with a Thousand Faces. B. The Hero’s Journey.C. How to Conquer Your Fear. D. Be Your Own Hero.DMany of our memory systems are driven by one single, powerful urge: to survive. We seem to be hard-wired to remember routes, so we can navigate our local environments safely. We’re also naturally talented at recognizing faces. Ever since we lived in groups, we humans have needed to know who’s “part of the pack”, and who isn’t, as a vital part of staying safe.And we’re excellent at remembering things that might put our well-being at risk. A recent research study showed that we’re remarkably accurate at recalling anything connected with infection. Even imaginary dangers can sharpen our memory skills.In the study, volunteers were shown a set of objects that they would be tested on later. But there was a twist. Some of the items were held by a researcher who was said to have COVID. And guess what? Those “contaminated” objects proved to be significantly easier to recall. None of the volunteers would ever have to touch those things themselves. But their minds still prioritized them, locking in the information for later—just in case it could keep them safe.And it’s a reflex that you can use to your advantage. When you’ve got something important to remember, why not “tag” it with one of those unpleasant feelings that your brain can’t help holding on to? For example, are you constantly worried about forgetting the milk from your shopping list? Then picture the bottle and imagine opening it only to discover that it’s weeks out of date. Think about how it would look—and smell! Thanks to the power of disgust, you’ll have a much better chance of remembering the fresh milk you need.Don’t try this technique too often, though, or you’ll end up always feeling on edge! But, in those moments when your memory needs a boost, a small bit of revulsion can be very healthy for your recall.12. What does the underlined word “hard-wired” in the first paragraph mean?A. Having a strong desire for something. B. Having a poor ability to do something.C. Having a natural talent for something. D. Having a terrible feeling on something13. What did the volunteers’ brains lock on first according to the study?A. Items shown to the volunteers first, B. Items volunteers later would be tested on.C. Items which may carry infectious viruses. D. Items volunteers would have to touch themselves.14. According to the passage, what is a good technique to remind yourself to go to the library before it closes?A. Ask your friends to remind you.B. Draw a picture of the library in your notebook.C. Recall a happy memory that is related to the library.D. Imagine the library tables piled with disgusting rubbish.15. What does the author want to convey through the text?A. Having a good memory is of vital importance. B. The desire to stay safe may boost our memory.C. Our memories are influenced by many factors. D. Healthy eating habit is significant to our health.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。Population: Is 8 billion people too many?The world’s population has reached 8 billion people. 16 because of longer life expectancies, fewer child deaths, and increasingly effective health-care systems. The UN secretary general, Antonio Guterres, declared it “an occasion to celebrate”. 17 When the global population hit 4, 5, 6 and 7 billion, in 1975, 1987, 1999 and 2011 respectively, there was widespread dismay. The doubling of our numbers in 47 years did not bring about the famines and other disasters widely predicted in the 1960s. Our ability to feed ourselves has grown faster than our population has. Therefore, every projection of a limit to Earth’s human population, or assumed “ideal number”, has been wrong. 18 , with fertility rates dropping below the replacement rate of 2.1 children per woman. Most of the ongoing growth is occurring in developing nations in Africa and Asia. In the developing world, though, things are about to change. The average woman in Tanzania in 2020 was a mother to four children, 9% down on a decade earlier. UN projections predict that it will fall to an average of 2.3 children in 2080. 19 . And over the next 70 years, “societal aging” will become a major problem. When there are far more old people than young, there aren’t enough workers to pay into pension systems, threatening their collapse. This phenomenon is already underway in the U.S., Europe, Japan and China.For now, we can both acknowledge the downsides of the 8 billionth human and believe this is an occasion worth celebrating. 20 . In that sense, it’s a good thing that millions of new people—with their new ideas and fresh energy—are on the way.A. We’ve reached this milestoneB. Actually, some population alarmism is appropriateC. The end of population expansion is now foreseeableD. The truth is that the population in developed nations has remained stableE. With any luck, the massive challenge of global aging will spur innovationF. The increasing global population will put more pressure on resources and produce far more emissionsG. In contrast, various experts have been put forward “nightmare consequences” about overpopulation since 1960s第二部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。It’s hard to put into words how much of a sense of freedom I get from being outdoors and in the wilderness. If I’m 21 by buildings for too long, I get a bit anxious. I need to see a field, a river or a mountain 22 in front of me.Spending time outdoors is a wonderful 23 . I like nothing more than getting to the end of a day spent outdoors and 24 the ache in my legs from a long walk. It helps me sleep and is far more 25 than training in a gym.There are so many 26 walks to choose from all over the UK. We live on a tiny island, relatively speaking, but the scenery we have here easily 27 some of the most beautiful in the world. We are extremely 28 : on our doorstep we have beaches, rivers, hills and mountains.Thanks to the light and the weather, the same walk can feel very different 29 the time of year you do it. But for breathtaking views whatever the 30 is, I’d recommend Cow and Calf Rocks on Ilkley Moor in West Yorkshire. It’s quite a challenge climbing them, which is why doing so feels more daring than a normal walk and offers 31 that you don’t get from following a gentle path. It’s perfect if you want a workout as well as fresh air and gives you the chance to gel up high and 32 a view that changes all year round.Otley Chevin in West Yorkshire is another 33 climb that offers beautiful views. And like Cow and Call Rocks, it is within easy 34 of the nearby town. But being Cumbrian, my heart will always belong to the Lake District. I grew up walking those fells in all weathers and seasons, and I think there is nothing more 35 than a big hill walk that gets your lungs burning and brings you to a view you’ve never seen before.21. A. crowded B. surrounded C. impressed D. involved22. A. disappearing B. revealing C. emerging D. floating23. A. experience B. expectation C. arrangement D. ambition24. A. doubting B. curing C. feeling D. removing25. A. harmful B. beneficial C. graceful D. pitiful26. A. powerful B. grateful C. confusing D. amazing27. A. rivals B. highlights C. escapes D. explores28. A. lucky B. tense C. certain D. tough29. A. picking up B. depending on C. contrasting with D. getting over30. A. season B. custom C. emotion D. response31.

The father-to-be scanned the roadside for some home, some inn where his struggling companion might rest safely for the night. He looked over at her frequently. She labored along, her way made heavier by the new life growing inside her. They needed a warm, dry place safe from the bitter wind. When her time came, it must not be out here along the roadway. Their names were not Mary and Joseph, but Pepper and Cooper. Nor were they man and wife, but rather a pair of dogs, and the place was on a rural highway outside of town.That December night, Gus Kiebel, a county wildlife officer, was driving home from work when he spotted the pair in the flash of his headlights. It was snowing so hard that it was difficult to see, but he could tell the dogs were wearing collars and tags. What were they doing out here on this road?He parked his truck and approached the animals. Gus squatted (蹲下) and stretched out his hands to the dogs, which made no effort to escape. Gus read their tags by his truck’s headlights. He pulled out his phone to call the number listed, but it was snowing so hard that his screen blurred (模糊不清的). He placed the dogs in his truck, on the floor of the passenger side. By the time he came around to the driver’s side, he found that they had climbed onto the passenger sent and were snuggled (依偎) together there. Gus dried his phone, took a picture of the pair and sent it to his wife, Katie Kiebel. Then he dialed the number from the dogs’ tags. A man answered and immediately grew defensive when Gus told him why he was calling.“I gave those dogs away,” the man said. “They’re not mine anymore.”“Well, do you want them back?” Gus asked.“No. I can’t take care of them.” The man answered.注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Then the man hung up. “You cannot put them back in the snow,” Katie said. 英语答案1—5: BCABD 6—10: BDCAA 11—15: DCCDB第二节16—20 AGDCE第二部分第一节21-25: BCACB 26-30: DAABA 31-35: BCACD第二节:36. which 37. since 38. gradually 39.
