Some of the best museums across China are putting their exhibitions online in VR format for free. While stuck at home due to the novel coronavirus outbreak, why not take a detailed online tour at museums that you would not otherwise have time for?
The Palace Museum
The Palace Museum is known as the Forbidden City. Visitors can browse all the buildings of the Palace Museums. More than 400,000 imperial artifacts have been digitized online, which can definitely help you gain knowledge and immerse yourself in a cultural atmosphere.
The websites: https://pano.dpm.org.cn/gugong_app_pc/index.html
https://www.dpm.org.cn/shuziduobaoge/html
Shanghai Museum
Shanghai Museum is a large and famous museum, which collects over 120,000 precious artistic relics from more than 5,000 years ago to the Qing Dynasty. The marvelous bronze, ceramics, paintings and calligraphies offer a visual feast for the eyes, and also provide a good chance for people to learn the profound Chinese history and culture.
If you are into ancient Chinese arts and crafts, then the online Shanghai Museum is definitely worth your time.

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Shanghai Museum部分中“If you are into ancient Chinese arts and crafts, then the online Shanghai Museum is definitely worth your time.The website: https://www.shanghaimuseum.net/treasure/show/show”可知，如果你对中国古代工艺品感兴趣，那么网上的上海博物馆绝对值得一去。网址：https://www.shanghaimuseum.net/treasure/show/show。由此可知，对中国古代工艺品感兴趣的人们可以访问网址：https://www.shanghaimuseum.net/treasure/show/show。故选D。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Mogao Caves部分中“Now visitors can directly browse dozens of classic caves and appreciate the murals by cave rooms through the “Digital Dunhuang”, the website of the Mogao Caves.”可知现在，游客可以通过莫高窟网站“数字敦煌”直接浏览几十个经典洞窟，欣赏洞窟室壁画。由此可知，游客通过“数字敦煌”能看到经典的洞穴和壁画。故选B。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“While stuck at home due to the novel coronavirus outbreak, why not take a detailed online tour at museums that you would not otherwise have time for?”可知当你因为新型冠状病毒爆发而困在家里的时候，为什么不去那些你没有时间去的博物馆进行一次详细的在线旅游呢？结合文章主要介绍了三个可以进行网上旅行的网站，由此可推知，写这篇文章的目的是推荐网上旅游。故选B。
B
In my childhood, my mother spent her evening hours doing something for someone else. Sometimes she knitted (编织) hats for babies, and at other times, she cooked chicken soup for sick neighbors. Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when one evening my mother announced she had undertaken a new project.
“I am going to telephone seniors,” said my mother. “Every night? But you don’t even know these people.” “It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.” I was sixteen years old and couldn’t understand why my mother was willing to spend her evenings talking to strangers. She had friends and my two older sisters to call if she felt lonely. “They will talk your ear off. Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath,” I said.
My attitude didn’t stop my mother’s enthusiasm for the project. That evening, she settled on the sofa and dialed. For a while, I listened as she asked the woman on the other line about her day and what she had eaten for dinner. When she finished the call, I said, “Why do you care whether she had cookies or rice pudding for dessert?” My mother grasped one of my hands and gave it a slight squeeze. “I’m the only person she talked to today.”
It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement. Now, as my mother is nearing eighty, I find myself thinking about those nightly calls she used to make. I am often the only person who telephones my mother, and sometimes I’m the only person she speaks to all day. I ask her what she cooked for dinner, but mostly I just listen as she describes a walk she took, or how her dog Lucky stole foods from the refrigerator. I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.
4 What is the mother’s purpose of calling the seniors?
A. To care about their life.
B. To know what they eat for dinner.
C. To make them feel less lonely.
D. To teach them how to make desserts.
5. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. They will talk all the time on the phone.
B. They will blame others’ wrong doings.
C. They will be tired of listening to others.
D. They will make you feel really satisfied.
6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The author started to telephone seniors as her mother.
B. The author realized the value of her mother’s efforts.
C. The author’s mother preferred to live alone.
D. The author’s mother still remains disconnected to the world.
7. What is the suitable title for the passage?
A. Call parents often, love them always
B. Mother’s evenings
C. A new project
D. Nightly calls, lifeline calls
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述的是作者的母亲经常晚上给一些老年人打电话聊天，作者很不理解，但是30年后，作者真正的意识到了母亲这样做的价值和意义。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的““It doesn’t matter,” she said. “What’s important is that I listen.”(“没关系，”她说。“重要的是我倾听。”)”以及第三段中的“My mother grasped one of my hands and gave it a slight squeeze. “I’m the only person she talked to today.”(妈妈抓住我的一只手，轻轻捏了一下。“我是她今天唯一和她说话的人。”)”可知，老年人一天中只有作者的母亲给他打电话，由此可以推断，老年人很孤单，所以母亲作为一个倾听者给老年人打电话就是为了不让老人们减少一些他们的孤独。故选C项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据空前的“She had friends and my two older sisters to call if she felt lonely.(如果她感到孤独，她有朋友和我的两个姐姐可以打电话。)”可知，作者觉得母亲要是觉得孤单可以找自己认识的人聊天，再根据“Some people didn’t even stop to catch breath(有些人甚至没有停下来喘口气)”可知，作者觉得母亲认识的人中有特别能说的，一打起电话就没完没了，由此可猜测，划线句子的意思是“他们在电话里会一直没完没了地说”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It took me more than thirty years to fully understand the meaning of that statement.(我花了三十多年的时间才完全理解这句话的含义。)”以及“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.(我意识到我母亲的电话是确保居家老年人与世界保持联系的生命线。没有她，他们的世界将是空的。)”可知，作者终于在30年后明白了母亲这样做是让更多的老人与世界关联，不让老人觉得自己的世界太孤单，由此可推断出作者明白了母亲这样做的价值和意义。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“In my childhood, my mother spent her evening hours doing something for someone else.(在我的童年时代，我的母亲在晚上为别人做一些事情。)”和“Therefore, I wasn’t surprised when one evening my mother announced she had undertaken a new project.(因此，有一天晚上，当我母亲宣布她承担了一个新项目时，我并不感到惊讶。)”以及最后一段中的“I realize that my mother’s calls were life lines that ensured housebound seniors remained connected to the world. Without her, their world would have been empty.(我意识到我母亲的电话是确保居家老年人与世界保持联系的生命线。没有她，他们的世界将是空的。)”并结合全文的内容可知，作者的母亲晚上给老年人打电话成了老年人与世界联系的生命线，让他们不会觉得太孤单，综上所述，本文的标题为“夜间通话，生命线通话”符合文章主题。故选D项。
C
Tasked with photographing one of the world’s most precious big cats, you go deep into the jungle of Southeast Asia and set up a camera trap. Back at base camp, you look through the images it captures, identifying monkeys, otters and finally, what you have been searching for: the mysterious clouded leopard.
All this, without having to leave the comfort of your own home. A new mobile game, turns one of the largest-ever wildlife camera trap studies into a playable experience. The idea is that by letting players take on the role of a researcher in a real scientific study, the game helps people to better understand wildlife conservation science.
The game is based on an ongoing, decade-long camera trap study by professor David Macdonald and his team at the Wildlife Conservation Research Unit at the University of Oxford. The hope is that games can provide new ways for people to engage with endangered animals. “If you don’t have any encounter or experience with elements of nature, then what motivation can you have to take a personal interest in it?” says Macdonald. “ I think that detail of understanding brings a great investment in wanting to see a good outcome.”
It uses real photographs from the study and allow players to identify species within this rapidly worsening environment. “ Of course, everyone loves attractive photography but there’s something just incredibly raw and real about capturing these animals’ moments,” says Macdonald.
“I would like to think that engagement with this game will lead to a feeling of value, which will affect how they think about nature,” says Macdonald. “So, in that sense, we’d like to be part of a revolution on how people view the role of humanity, alongside the wider environment.”
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To present a finding.
B. To lead to the topic.
C. To advertise a game.
D. To demonstrate photographing in the wild.
9. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. The reason for using real photographs in the game.
B. The present situation of the natural environment.
C. The way of making the photos more appealing.
D. The original source of the real photographs.
10. Which of the following is NOT the benefits of the mobile game?
A. It popularizes the knowledge about the science of wildlife protection.
B. It offers new methods for developing links with endangered species.
C. It influences people to reflect on more about man and nature.
D. It raises funds for the future research into wildlife.
11. What is Macdonald’s attitude towards the mobile game?
A. Doubtful B. Disapproving C. Positive D. Indifferent
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一片说明文。讲述了为了拍摄大型猫科动物设置摄像机陷阱。而一款新型的手游将最大的野生动物摄像机陷阱研究变成一款可以玩的游戏。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。第一段讲述了在丛林中设置相机陷阱拍摄猫科动物的真实情形——拍摄者先要深入丛林之中架设好相机。但在第二段开头“All this, without having to leave the comfort of your own home. (所有这一切，无需离开舒适的家。)”及“The idea is that by letting players take on the role of a researcher in a real scientific study, the game helps people to better understand wildlife conservation science. (这个想法是，通过让玩家在真正的科学研究中扮演研究人员的角色，游戏可以帮助人们更好地了解野生动物保护科学。)”可知第一段的目的在于引出话题，从而展开对游戏的介绍。故答案为B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段开头“It uses real photographs from the study and allow players to identify species within this rapidly worsening environment. (它使用研究中的真实照片，并允许玩家在这个迅速恶化的环境中识别物种。)”以及“Of course, everyone loves attractive photography but there’s something just incredibly raw and real about capturing these animals’ moments. (当然，每个人都喜欢有吸引力的摄影，但捕捉这些动物的时刻有一些令人难以置信的原始和真实的东西)”可知，本段主要讲游戏中使用真实照片的原因。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The idea is that by letting players take on the role of a researcher in a real scientific study, the game helps people to better understand wildlife conservation science. (这个想法是，通过让玩家在真正的科学研究中扮演研究人员的角色，游戏可以帮助人们更好地了解野生动物保护科学。)”，第三段中“The hope is that games can provide new ways for people to engage with endangered animals. (希望游戏可以为人们提供与濒危动物互动的新方式。)”，以及最后一段“I would like to think that engagement with this game will lead to a feeling of value, which will affect how they think about nature, says Macdonald. So, in that sense, we’d like to be part of a revolution on how people view the role of humanity, alongside the wider environment. (我认为参与这个游戏会带来一种价值感，这将影响他们对自然的看法，麦克唐纳说。因此，从这个意义上说，我们希望成为一场关于人们如何看待人类角色以及更广泛环境的革命的一部分。)”可知，通过这款游戏从玩家那里筹集野生动物研究资金在文中并未提到，故选D。
【11题详解】
判断推理题。根据文章最后一段中“I would like to think that engagement with this game will lead to a feeling of value, which will affect how they think about nature, (我想参与这个游戏会带来一种价值感，这将影响他们对自然的看法，)”及“So, in that sense, we’d like to be part of a revolution on how people view the role of humanity, alongside the wider environment. (所以，从这个意义上说，我们希望成为一场关于人们如何看待人类角色的革命的一部分，以及更广泛的环境。)”可知，Macdonald对这款手游是持肯定支持的态度，故选C。
D
Cotton bags have become a means for brands, retailers and supermarkets to convey a planet-friendly mindset — or, at least, to show that the companies are aware of the overuse of plastic in packaging.
Earth-friendly? Not exactly. It turns out the wholehearted embrace of cotton bags may actually have created a new problem. An organic cotton bag needs to be used 20,000 times to make up for its overall impact of production, according to a 2018 study by the Ministry of Environment and Food of Denmark. That is equal to daily use for 54 years — for just one bag. The production of cotton bags is water-intensive, and figuring out how to deal with a bag in an environmentally low-impact way is not nearly as simple as people think, according to Travis Wagner, an environmental science professor at the University of Maine.
In sharp comparison with the frequent use of cotton bags, the disposal (处理) of the bags remains less satisfying. Only 15 percent of the 30 million tons of cotton bags produced every year actually is sent to be recycled. Even when a bag does make it to a treatment facility, most dyes (染料) used to print logos onto them are PVC-based and thus not recyclable; “they’re extremely difficult to disintegrate (分解) chemically,” said Christopher Stanev, the co-founder of Evrnu, a Seattle-based textile recycling firm. Printed patterns have to be cut out of the cloth; Mr. Stanev estimates 10 to 15 percent of the cotton Evrnu receives is wasted this way.
That’s not to say cotton is worse than plastic, or that the two should even be compared. While cotton can use pesticides and has dried up rivers from water consumption, lightweight plastic bags use greenhouse gas-emitting fossil fuels and will fill up the oceans.
Buffy Reid, of the knitwear label & Daughter, stopped production of her cotton bags in April this year. Aesop is converting the composition of its shopping bags to a 60 — 40 blend of recycled and organic cotton. Designer Ally Capellino recently employed a new material, while Hindmarch introduced a new version of her original cotton bag, this time made from recycled water bottles.
In the end, the simplest solution may be the most obvious. “Not every product needs a bag,” Comey says.
12. According to paragraph 2, what can we learn about cotton bags?
A. It is easy to recycle cotton bags.
B. Using cotton bags is earth-friendly.
C. Producing cotton is water-consuming.
D. Producing cotton bags poses no harm to the earth.
13. What do we know about the disposal of cotton bags?
A. A large amount of water is wasted.
B. Printed patterns on cotton bags cannot be recycled.
C. Dyes used to print logos are easy to break down.
D. Most cotton bags end up being recycled.
14. What is the author’s opinion of comparing cotton with plastic?
A. Cotton is worse than plastic.
B. Plastic is worse than cotton.
C. Both are favorable to the earth.
D. Both have disadvantages.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Cotton bags — a new fashion
B. Not every product needs a bag
C. Cotton bags — a way to be earth-friendly
D. Are cotton bags harmless to the environment?
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了当前各大超市和零售商都使用棉布袋传达环保的理念，但其实使用棉布袋并没有想象中那么环保，它引发了一系列新的问题。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“The production of cotton bags is water-intensive, and figuring out how to deal with a bag in an environmentally low-impact way is not nearly as simple as people think, according to Travis Wagner, an environmental science professor at the University of Maine.(缅因大学环境科学系教授Travis Wagner指出，棉布的生产需要耗费大量水资源，用尽可能环保的方式处理废弃棉布袋也远远没有人们想的那么简单。)”可知，棉布袋没有人们想象中环保，棉布的生产需要耗费大量水资源。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Even when a bag does make it to a treatment facility, most dyes (染料) used to print logos onto them are PVC-based and thus not recyclable; ‘they’re extremely difficult to disintegrate (分解) chemically,’ said Christopher Stanev, the co-founder of Evrnu, a Seattle-based textile recycling firm.(即使一个棉布袋确实到达了处理厂，多数用于印刷标识的染料都是聚氯乙烯材质的，无法被回收利用；总部位于西雅图的纺织品回收公司Evrnu的联合创始人Christopher Stanev说：‘它们在化学上极难分解。’)”可知，棉布袋上的印花图案是无法回收利用的。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“That’s not to say cotton is worse than plastic, or that the two should even be compared. While cotton can use pesticides and has dried up rivers from water consumption, lightweight plastic bags use greenhouse gas-emitting fossil fuels and will fill up the oceans.(这并不是说棉花比塑料更糟糕，或者两者甚至应该进行比较。尽管生产棉花会使用杀虫剂，还会耗费大量的水导致河流干涸，但轻质塑料袋使用排放温室气体的化石燃料，还会填满海洋。)”可知，作者认为不该将棉花和塑料放一起比较，两者都有自己的缺点。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Cotton bags have become a means for brands, retailers and supermarkets to convey a planet-friendly mindset — or, at least, to show that the companies are aware of the overuse of plastic in packaging.(棉布袋已经成为品牌、零售商和超市传达环保理念的一种手段，或者至少表明这些公司意识到了塑料包装的过度使用。)”和第二段段首的“Earth-friendly? Not exactly. It turns out the wholehearted embrace of cotton bags may actually have created a new problem. (很环保？未必。事实证明，棉布袋潮流可能引发了新的问题。)”以及下文对棉布袋是否环保的详细阐述可知，本文主要讲述的是棉布袋是否真的更加环保，由此可知，D选项“Are cotton bags harmless to the environment?(棉袋对环境无害吗?)”可以概括全文，适合作为最佳标题。故选D。

It’s a cliché (陈词滥调) that everyone’s too busy these days. But one specific complaint is made especially mournfully: There’s never any time to read.
What makes the problem thorny is that the usual time-management techniques don’t seem sufficient. The web’s full of articles offering tips on making time to read: “Give up TV” or “Carry a book with you at all times.” But in my experience, using such methods to free up the odd 30 minutes doesn’t work. Sit down to read and work-related thoughts keep spinning (旋转) — or else you’re so exhausted that a challenging book’s the last thing you need. The modern mind, Tim Parks, a novelist and critic, writes, “is showing more tendency toward communication... It is not simply that one is interrupted; it is that one is actually ready for interruption.” Deep reading requires not just time, but a special kind of time which can’t be obtained merely by becoming more efficient.
In fact, “becoming more efficient” is part of the problem. Thinking of time as a resource to be maximised means you approach it for your specific purpose, judging any given moment should be well spent which advances toward some goal. Deep reading, by contrast, depends on being willing to risk inefficiency, goallessness, even time-wasting. Try to arrange it in as a to-do list item and you’ll manage only goal-focused reading — useful, sometimes, but not the most fulfilling kind. “The future comes at us like empty bottles along an unstoppable and nearly endless conveyor belt (传送带),” writes Gary Eberle in his book Sacred Time, and “we feel a pressure to fill these different-sized bottles (days, hours, minutes) as they pass, for if they get by without being filled, we will have wasted them.” No mindset could be worse for losing yourself in a book.
So what does work? Perhaps surprisingly, scheduling regular times for reading. You’d think this might fuel the efficiency mindset, but in fact, Eberle notes, such habitual behaviour helps us “step outside time’s flow” into “soul time.” You could limit distractions by reading only physical books, or on single-purpose e-readers. “Carry a book with you at all times” can actually work, too – providing you dip in often enough, so that reading becomes the common state from which you can temporarily get away to take care of business, before getting dipped again. On a really good day, it no longer feels as if you’re “making time to read,” but just reading, and making time for everything else.
16. Which can best replace the underlined word “thorny” in Paragraph 2?
A. tough B. pleasant C. slight D. essential
17. Why do the usual time-management techniques fail to work?
A. The modern mind is not shaped.
B. Repetition is required in deep reading.
C. People always forget to carry a book with them.
D. Deep reading is not fully guaranteed.
18. What does the “fill the empty bottles” metaphor in Paragraph 3 imply?
A. To update their to-do lists. B. To fulfill their passing time.
C. To carry out their big plans. D. To pursue carefree reading.
19. Which statement may Eberle agree with?
A. People should devote themselves to reading for fear of wasting time.
B. Scheduling regular times for reading is helpful in achieving deep reading.
C. Deep reading can only be achieved after dealing with all the daily businesses.
D. Distractions can be avoided by developing online reading habits.
【答案】16. A 17. D 18. B 19. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了怎样阅读有效。
【16题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“the usual time-management techniques don’t seem sufficient.(通常的时间管理技巧似乎并不够)”可知，这个问题很棘手，以至于常用的时间管理技巧还不够，所以画线词的意思应该是“棘手的、困难的”。故选A项。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Deep reading requires not just time, but a special kind of time which can’t be obtained merely by becoming more efficient.(深度阅读不仅需要时间，而且需要一种特殊的时间，这种时间不能仅仅通过提高效率来获得。)”可知，通常的时间管理方法不管用是因为深度阅读并不能完全保证。故选D项。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Thinking of time as a resource to be maximised means you approach it for your specific purpose, judging any given moment should be well spent which advances toward some goal.(把时间看作是一种要最大化的资源，这意味着你为了特定的目的而利用它，判断任何给定的时刻都应该合理利用，朝着某个目标前进。)”可推知，本段中“装满空瓶子”的比喻意味着让时间变得充实。故选B项。
【19题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Perhaps surprisingly, scheduling regular times for reading. You’d think this might fuel the efficiency mindset, but in fact, Eberle notes, such habitual behaviour helps us “step outside time’s flow” into “soul time.” You could limit distractions by reading only physical books, or on single-purpose e-readers.(也许令人惊讶的是，安排有规律的阅读时间。你可能会认为这可能会助长效率思维，但事实上，埃伯利指出，这种习惯性行为有助于我们“走出时间的流动”，进入“灵魂时间”。你可以通过阅读纸质书或单一用途的电子阅读器来限制分心。)”可知，埃伯利同意，安排规律的阅读时间有助于实现深度阅读。故选B项。

Yes, trying new things is exciting and mind-expanding and all that, but it can also be awkward and embarrassing. No one likes to feel embarrassed and incompetent.___20___ Here are a few ways to feel a little better about launching yourself into a new experience—and help you get over the part of that initial misery to the part where it’s actually fun.
First, we should know we’re born to be afraid of new experiences. From an evolutionary standpoint, trying new things, for much of human history, could have been dangerous. This means that deep in our brains there’s a primeval (原始的) fear of looking bad, a fear of not performing as well as others.___21___ It’s part of being human. Enjoyment will come as the newness fades.
Going in with the right mindset is also important. It’s good to have an end goal in mind.___22___ Maybe your new hobby is marathons, for example; running one in under four hours is a goal, sure, but getting in shape and meeting other runners are worthy outcomes, too.
___23___ Whatever you’re trying, doing a little preparation work beforehand can make your first time a lot less frightening. Want to try your hand at baking? Before you actually bust out the kitchen equipment, maybe watch a few tutorials and take a few minutes to look up all the terms you don’t know. Taking up golf?___24___ — a baseline of knowledge will help you feel a little better the first time you try swinging a club.
A. And it is wise to prepare before you start.
B. Having an end goal will guide you through.
C. Practice playing golf beforehand is a good choice.
D. However, it helps to start with a beginner-friendly one.
E. It’s fine to read a book on the sport before you head to the golf course.
F. Unfortunately, it is unavoidable if beginners want to learn something new.
G. In other words, not loving it right away isn’t a sign that you’ve made a mistake.
【答案】20. F 21. G 22. D 23. A 24. E

【21题详解】
根据前文“This means that deep in our brains there’s a primeval (原始的) fear of looking bad, a fear of not performing as well as others.

【22题详解】
根据前文“It’s good to have an end goal in mind. (心中有一个最终目标是件好事。)”可知，确立目标对初学者的开始是有帮助的。所以选择项D“However, it helps to start with a beginner-friendly one. (然而，从初学者友好的目标开始是有帮助的。)”符合上下文语境，“beginner”和下文的“new”相呼应。故选D。
【23题详解】
根据后文“Whatever you’re trying, doing a little preparation work beforehand can make your first time a lot less frightening. (无论你尝试什么，事先做一些准备工作可以让你第一次不那么可怕。)”可知，本段主要介绍事先做好准备工作的重要性。所以选择项A“And it is wise to prepare before you start. (在开始之前做好准备是明智的。)”符合上下文语境。故选A。
【24题详解】
根据后文“a baseline of knowledge will help you feel a little better the first time you try swinging a club. (一个基本的知识会让你在第一次挥杆的时候感觉好一点。)”可知，在第一次打高尔夫前可以通过书本先准备一些基础知识。所以选择项E“It’s fine to read a book on the sport before you head to the golf course. (在你去高尔夫球场之前读一本关于这项运动的书是很好的。)”符合上下文语境。故选E。

65. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之成为一篇完整的短文。
On a Friday evening in December, two weeks before Christmas, I lost my job. I hadn’t seen it coming. I was excited for the weekend, when my daughter, Kristil, then 12, and I planned to get our Christmas tree. Then I listened to my voicemail: “We’ re sorry but your work assignment has ended as of today. ” My heart sank. I wasn’t just a single parent; I was the only parent. My paycheck was survival. The next day as we searched for our tree, I struggled to be cheerful as I eyed each price tag. “Is everything OK?” Kristil asked. “You seem worried.” “I got some bad news yesterday. I lost my job”, I told her. “Oh no,” Kristil said. “Well, I have $50 from Grandma, and I can give you.” Absolutely not,” I told her. Monday morning, I dropped Kristil at school and set off on my moneymaking pursuits. I sold a precious cup at an antique store, washed dishes in a restaurant and ended the day $120 richer. Over the next week, I furiously applied for jobs as my bank account became smaller. I felt as if the world was closing in on me. On a weekend afternoon, I dropped Kristil in a wealthy gated community for a birthday party. I watched as she went in, surrounded by all the nice things we couldn’t afford. I drove home defeated. Back at home, I glanced out the window. It had been snowing on and of all morning. I noticed a thin woman with short white hair struggling to open her car door against the wind. As she got out, I realized it was my old professor, Sister Esther Heffernan whom I hadn’t seen since we’d met for lunch three months ago. It soon dragged me to the cherished days when I first met Sister Esther 10 years ago as her student at Edgewood College in Madison, Wisconsin. Sister Esther was understanding, loving and patient. Even after I graduated, Sister Esther kept in touch. I had grown to love her like family.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I rushed to the front of my building. “What are you doing out in this weather?” I asked as we hugged. “I tried to call but couldn't get through, so I thought I would come by,” Sister Esther said. “I have a couple of gifts for you and Kristil.” I made her a cup of tea, and we talked. As she got up to leave, she handed me a Christmas card. “This is for you,” she said as she kissed me on the cheek. I walked her to her car and waved as she pulled away.
As she left, I opened the Christmas card and an envelope fell. As I opened it, I saw there was money inside. I gasped in shock. Hundred-dollar bills poured onto the table. Tears of gratitude puddled in my eyes as I counted the money. Sister Esther had given me $1,000. I silently thanked Sister Esther in my heart. It has been 13 years since that Christmas, but I have never forgotten what Sister Esther did for us.
