第三部分 阅读理解（共12小题；每小题2分，满分24分）
请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Can you imagine a world without insects? Without ants or flies in your house, it might sound great. However, the results may be out of imagination.
The number of insects has dropped by half in the past few years, according to a British biologist Dave Coulson. You may think small insects are not important. But in fact they are the main part of the species(物种)on Earth.
Insects are indeed on the way to extinction, according to the first review of insect population. The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides(杀虫剂)because they destroy insects’ living areas. Also, weather change is another important cause.
“Unless we change our ways of producing food, insects will go down the way to extinction in a few years,” the researchers wrote in the review. “This will have huge influences on the planet’s ecosystem(生态系统).”
We need insects to pollinate(授粉)crops. They also break down(分解)dead plants and animals, which can keep the soil healthy. Without insects, many animals would have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Then, the ecosystem would be off balance.
“If the number of insect species keep dropping, this will have bad influences on both Earth’s ecosystem and the survival of us humans,” said one of the writers of the review.
“The first step to stop this is to let more people understand the values of the natural world,” he suggests. “The best place to start is from our children, who should realize environmental protection from an early age.”
21．The underlined word “extinction” means “________”.
A．pollution B．death C．harm D．protection
22．Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________.
A．the reason for producing food B．the problem of animals and plants
C．the way to keep soil healthy D．the importance of insects
23．From the passage, we can know ________.
A．insects may destroy the balance of the ecosystem
B．ants and flies are the main part of the species on Earth
C．humans’ actions influence the number of insects
D．weather change has little influence on insects
【短文大意】
本文主要讲述了在过去几年里，昆虫数量下降了一半以及昆虫的重要性。
【答案解析】
21．词义猜测题。根据“The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides (杀虫剂) because they destroy insects’ living areas. Also, weather change is another important cause.”（研究人员说，造成这种情况的主要原因是使用杀虫剂，因为它们会破坏昆虫的生活区域。此外，天气变化也是另一个重要原因。）可知杀虫剂和天气变化会导致昆虫死亡，所以extinction和death意思相近，故选B。
22．段落大意题。根据“We need insects to pollinate (授粉) crops. They also break down (分解) dead plants and animals, which can keep the soil healthy. Without insects, many animals would have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Then, the ecosystem would be off balance.”（我们需要昆虫给庄稼授粉。它们还能分解死去的动植物，从而保持土壤健康。如果没有昆虫，许多动物将没有食物，饿死。然后，生态系统就会失衡。）可知本段说的是昆虫的重要性，故选D。
23．推理判断题。根据“The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides (杀虫剂) because they destroy insects’ living areas”（研究人员说，造成这种情况的主要原因是使用杀虫剂，因为它们会破坏昆虫的生活区域）以及“The best place to start is from our children, who should realize environmental protection from an early age”（最好从我们的孩子开始，他们应该从小就认识到环境保护。）可推知人类的行为会影响昆虫的数量，故选C。
B
One teacher praises a student by saying “You’re so smart!” Another teacher says, “You must have worked really hard at this!” Which student does better in school? Studies show that students who hear the words of the second teacher will do better. Those students are learning that their effort is important.
Psychologists（心理学家）looked at what students did after they were given different types of praise. Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn’t try very hard the next time. Other students were told that they had worked hard at a task. They worked even harder the next time. The first group of students was learning that they had a set amount of skill. They didn’t think they could do any better. This is called a fixed mindset（思维模式）. The second group was learning that they could do better if they kept trying. This is called a growth mindset. People who have a growth mindset believe that the brain can grow; people can do better and learn new skills. If they work hard, they can be successful.
How can teachers and parents help students succeed? They can focus mainly on effort and not simply on ability. When students succeed, teachers and parents should praise the actual work rather than intelligence（智力）or talent. When students fail, they should be told how they can do better. Teachers, parents and students need to value effort, not intelligence.
Beliefs of Fixed and Growth Mindsets
Fixed Mindset
Growth Mindset
Things you’re born with that cannot change
Things you can grow and improve with hard work
Something to avoid—could show lack of skill
Something important—leads to success
Things to avoid—in case you aren’t good enough
Things that help you learn
24． What kind of people have fewer chances to succeed according to the article?
A．People with a growth mindset. B．People with a fixed mindset.
C．People who often learn from challenges. D．People who often learn from mistakes.
25．From the form we can know people with a growth mindset consider challenges as ________.
A．things they’re born with B．things they need to avoid
C．things that help them learn D．things that stop them improving
26．How does the writer organize the ideas in the article?
A．By telling stories. B．By listing numbers.
C．By drawing mind maps. D．By comparing facts.
【短文大意】
本文是一篇议论文，介绍了固定型思维和成长型思维的区别，告诉我们应该更注重后天努力，而不是与生俱来的智力才能。
【答案解析】
24．推理判断题。根据“Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn’t try very hard the next time”及“The first group of students was learning that they had a set amount of skill. They didn’t think they could do any better. This is called a fixed mindset（思维模式）.”可知，文章介绍了拥有固定型思维模式的学生在面对一项任务时，如果受到了夸赞表扬，那么下一次他们就不会再继续努力了，故可推知拥有固定型思维的人获得成功的机会较小。故选B。
25．推理判断题。根据表格最后一行Challenges中“Things that help you learn”可知，拥有成长型思维的人会把挑战视为可以帮助他们学习的事情。故选C。
26．推理判断题。根据第二段“Psychologists（心理学家）looked at what students did after they were given different types of praise. Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn’t try very hard the next time. Other students were told that they had worked hard at a task. They worked even harder the next time.”可知，文章第二段介绍了两组不同的学生在接受不同表扬后的行为表现，说明了固定型思维和成长型思维的不同；故文章通过对比事实来组织文章中心思想。故选D。
C

Thirty-Six Stratagems(计谋), which show our ancient Chinese wisdom, are our ancient culture treasure. And many of these stratagems can still be put into practice in many fields, such as war, politics, business and even daily life. The following are four of them. Let’s enjoy the charm of our traditional culture.
Stratagem OneWhen a thief is in your house, you’d better shut your doors at once in order to prevent him from running away.
Why? For our ancient Chinese, there are two reasons. First, if you let your enemy run away, he will come back. Second, once your enemy succeeds in running away, it is dangerous for you to chase him.
Stratagem TwoThis stratagem is from a poem by Du Fu, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty. A line in the poem reads: “To shoot the man on horse-back, shoot his horse first; To catch the robbers, capture their leader first.”
In a war if you want to beat the enemy, attack the leader first. Once the leader is caught, their forces will break down and fall into chaos.
Stratagem ThreeChinese always believe that tigers are more powerful when they are in the mountains. Once they leave mountains, they will become less powerful. And there are a few Chinese sayings linking tigers with mountains.
The stratagem advises you not to directly attack an enemy in his own area. Instead, you should try to make him leave his place first, making him lose the geographical advantage. In this way, your enemy will be beaten easily.
Stratagem FourExperienced fishers all know how to prevent a hooked fish breaking the line. Move the fish line from side to side to gradually make the fish calm down and get tired, and then you can catch it easily.
In the same way, once your enemy is trapped, he will often struggle, trying to run away. Leave him the false feeling that he still has a chance to run away. When he gets tired and loses his guard, you can capture him with less difficulty.
30． Which of the following describes Stratagem Two?
A．Shutting the door to catch the thief. B．Catching your enemy’s leader first.
C．Letting the enemy off to catch him later. D．Tricking the tiger out of the mountain.
31．From the stratagems above, we know that ________.
A．it is wise for you to attack enemies in their own places
B．it is impossible for people to make others lose their guard
C．it is dangerous to give your enemies a chance to run away
D．it is better to shoot the man on horse-back first not the horse
32．Where can we probably read Thirty-Six Stratagems?
A．In a guide book. B．In an art book.
C．In a science book. D．In a classical book.
【短文大意】
本文是一篇说明文，介绍《三十六计》中的四个。
【答案解析】
30．细节理解题。根据“To shoot the man on horse-back, shoot his horse first; To catch the robbers, capture their leader first.”可知，射人先射马，擒贼先擒王。故选B。
31．推理判断题。根据“First, if you let your enemy run away, he will come back. Second, once your enemy succeeds in running away, it is dangerous for you to chase him.”可知，给敌人逃跑的机会是很危险的，故选C。
32．推理判断题。本文介绍《三十六计》中的四个，所以推测可能在一本古典书里看到，故选D。

【短文大意】
本文主要讲苏炳添不断打破记录使世界震惊。
【答案解析】
48．句意：好多年了。对亚洲运动员来说，在100米比赛中打破10秒的障碍是不可能完成的任务。根据“For years”及后文“was”可知用一般过去时，it后用be动词was。故填was。
49．句意：这种情况很有可能与基因有关。句中缺少副词修饰形容词，high的副词形式highly，意为“很，非常”。故填highly。
50．句意：但随着苏在国际比赛中取得越来越大的进步，基因理论并不成立。根据“this situation had something to do with genes”可知此处特指上文提到的基因理论，用定冠词the。故填the。
51．句意：2015年，苏向世界展示了他在100米比赛中打破10秒大关的惊人能力，跑出了9秒99。形容词修饰名词，able的名词形式ability，意为“能力”，此处特指“在100米比赛中打破10秒大关”的能力，用单数。故填ability。
52．句意：但是中国运动员要想以9秒58的成绩打破世界纪录还有很长的路要走，已经开始了他的旅程。前后句子句意出现转折，用but表示“但是”，句子开头首字母大写。故填But。
53．句意：值得注意的是，苏不仅是一名运动员，还是暨南大学的教授。be worth doing sth.“值得做某事”。故填noticing。
54．句意：在2019年发表的一篇学术论文中，苏表示，中国田径的传统训练过于注重增强运动员的体能。先行词“paper”与动词publish之间是动宾关系，结合“in 2019”可知用一般过去时的被动语态，先行词是单数，be动词用was。故填was published。
55．句意：在2019年发表的一篇学术论文中，苏表示，中国田径的传统训练过于注重增强运动员的体能。根据“said”可知主过从必过，pay的过去式paid。故填paid。
56．句意：但苏的训练场要复杂得多，现场有许多高科技电子设备。根据“Su’s training ground was much more sophisticated”可知此处要讲训练场中包括的东西，including“包括”。故填including。
57．句意：后来，人们认为他所做的是如此有价值，以至于许多其他跑步者都想以他为榜样。was后接形容词作表语，value的形容词valuable，意为“有价值的”。故填valuable。

Sports in my eyes
There are many kinds of sports that I’ve tried before. Among them, I like running best.
Running is an easy and interesting sport, which can be done at any time and place as you like. What’s more, we don’t need to prepare any tools for running. We can become healthier and stronger as long as we keep running. And we can relax ourselves from much pressure by running. As for me, I run at least 30 minutes in the school playground every day, because my home is next to the school. Sometimes I run slowly, but sometimes I run fast. Running gives me a lot of fun. I think playing football is also good. If I have a chance, I’d like to try playing football.
I hope I can keep the habit of running and keep healthy.

A
Can you imagine a world without insects? Without ants or flies in your house, it might sound great. However, the results may be out of imagination.
The number of insects has dropped by half in the past few years, according to a British biologist Dave Coulson. You may think small insects are not important. But in fact they are the main part of the species(物种)on Earth.
Insects are indeed on the way to extinction, according to the first review of insect population. The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides(杀虫剂)because they destroy insects’ living areas. Also, weather change is another important cause.
“Unless we change our ways of producing food, insects will go down the way to extinction in a few years,” the researchers wrote in the review. “This will have huge influences on the planet’s ecosystem(生态系统).”
We need insects to pollinate(授粉)crops. They also break down(分解)dead plants and animals, which can keep the soil healthy. Without insects, many animals would have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Then, the ecosystem would be off balance.
“If the number of insect species keep dropping, this will have bad influences on both Earth’s ecosystem and the survival of us humans,” said one of the writers of the review.
“The first step to stop this is to let more people understand the values of the natural world,” he suggests. “The best place to start is from our children, who should realize environmental protection from an early age.”
21．The underlined word “extinction” means “________”.
A．pollution B．death C．harm D．protection
22．Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________.
A．the reason for producing food B．the problem of animals and plants
C．the way to keep soil healthy D．the importance of insects
23．From the passage, we can know ________.
A．insects may destroy the balance of the ecosystem
B．ants and flies are the main part of the species on Earth
C．humans’ actions influence the number of insects
D．weather change has little influence on insects
【短文大意】
本文主要讲述了在过去几年里，昆虫数量下降了一半以及昆虫的重要性。
【答案解析】
21．词义猜测题。根据“The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides (杀虫剂) because they destroy insects’ living areas. Also, weather change is another important cause.”（研究人员说，造成这种情况的主要原因是使用杀虫剂，因为它们会破坏昆虫的生活区域。此外，天气变化也是另一个重要原因。）可知杀虫剂和天气变化会导致昆虫死亡，所以extinction和death意思相近，故选B。
22．段落大意题。根据“We need insects to pollinate (授粉) crops. They also break down (分解) dead plants and animals, which can keep the soil healthy. Without insects, many animals would have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Then, the ecosystem would be off balance.”（我们需要昆虫给庄稼授粉。它们还能分解死去的动植物，从而保持土壤健康。如果没有昆虫，许多动物将没有食物，饿死。然后，生态系统就会失衡。）可知本段说的是昆虫的重要性，故选D。
23．推理判断题。根据“The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides (杀虫剂) because they destroy insects’ living areas”（研究人员说，造成这种情况的主要原因是使用杀虫剂，因为它们会破坏昆虫的生活区域）以及“The best place to start is from our children, who should realize environmental protection from an early age”（最好从我们的孩子开始，他们应该从小就认识到环境保护。）可推知人类的行为会影响昆虫的数量，故选C。
B
One teacher praises a student by saying “You’re so smart!” Another teacher says, “You must have worked really hard at this!” Which student does better in school? Studies show that students who hear the words of the second teacher will do better. Those students are learning that their effort is important.
Psychologists（心理学家）looked at what students did after they were given different types of praise. Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn’t try very hard the next time. Other students were told that they had worked hard at a task. They worked even harder the next time. The first group of students was learning that they had a set amount of skill. They didn’t think they could do any better. This is called a fixed mindset（思维模式）. The second group was learning that they could do better if they kept trying. This is called a growth mindset. People who have a growth mindset believe that the brain can grow; people can do better and learn new skills. If they work hard, they can be successful.
How can teachers and parents help students succeed? They can focus mainly on effort and not simply on ability. When students succeed, teachers and parents should praise the actual work rather than intelligence（智力）or talent. When students fail, they should be told how they can do better. Teachers, parents and students need to value effort, not intelligence.
Beliefs of Fixed and Growth Mindsets
Fixed Mindset
Growth Mindset
Things you’re born with that cannot change
Things you can grow and improve with hard work
Something to avoid—could show lack of skill
Something important—leads to success
Things to avoid—in case you aren’t good enough
Things that help you learn
24． What kind of people have fewer chances to succeed according to the article?
A．People with a growth mindset. B．People with a fixed mindset.
C．People who often learn from challenges. D．People who often learn from mistakes.
25．From the form we can know people with a growth mindset consider challenges as ________.
A．things they’re born with B．things they need to avoid
C．things that help them learn D．things that stop them improving
26．How does the writer organize the ideas in the article?
A．By telling stories. B．By listing numbers.
C．By drawing mind maps. D．By comparing facts.
【短文大意】
本文是一篇议论文，介绍了固定型思维和成长型思维的区别，告诉我们应该更注重后天努力，而不是与生俱来的智力才能。
【答案解析】
24．推理判断题。根据“Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn’t try very hard the next time”及“The first group of students was learning that they had a set amount of skill. They didn’t think they could do any better. This is called a fixed mindset（思维模式）.”可知，文章介绍了拥有固定型思维模式的学生在面对一项任务时，如果受到了夸赞表扬，那么下一次他们就不会再继续努力了，故可推知拥有固定型思维的人获得成功的机会较小。故选B。
25．推理判断题。根据表格最后一行Challenges中“Things that help you learn”可知，拥有成长型思维的人会把挑战视为可以帮助他们学习的事情。故选C。
26．推理判断题。根据第二段“Psychologists（心理学家）looked at what students did after they were given different types of praise. Some students were told that they were good at a task. They didn’t try very hard the next time. Other students were told that they had worked hard at a task. They worked even harder the next time.”可知，文章第二段介绍了两组不同的学生在接受不同表扬后的行为表现，说明了固定型思维和成长型思维的不同；故文章通过对比事实来组织文章中心思想。故选D。
C

Thirty-Six Stratagems(计谋), which show our ancient Chinese wisdom, are our ancient culture treasure. And many of these stratagems can still be put into practice in many fields, such as war, politics, business and even daily life. The following are four of them. Let’s enjoy the charm of our traditional culture.
Stratagem OneWhen a thief is in your house, you’d better shut your doors at once in order to prevent him from running away.
Why? For our ancient Chinese, there are two reasons. First, if you let your enemy run away, he will come back. Second, once your enemy succeeds in running away, it is dangerous for you to chase him.
Stratagem TwoThis stratagem is from a poem by Du Fu, a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty. A line in the poem reads: “To shoot the man on horse-back, shoot his horse first; To catch the robbers, capture their leader first.”
In a war if you want to beat the enemy, attack the leader first. Once the leader is caught, their forces will break down and fall into chaos.
Stratagem ThreeChinese always believe that tigers are more powerful when they are in the mountains. Once they leave mountains, they will become less powerful. And there are a few Chinese sayings linking tigers with mountains.
The stratagem advises you not to directly attack an enemy in his own area. Instead, you should try to make him leave his place first, making him lose the geographical advantage. In this way, your enemy will be beaten easily.
Stratagem FourExperienced fishers all know how to prevent a hooked fish breaking the line. Move the fish line from side to side to gradually make the fish calm down and get tired, and then you can catch it easily.
In the same way, once your enemy is trapped, he will often struggle, trying to run away. Leave him the false feeling that he still has a chance to run away. When he gets tired and loses his guard, you can capture him with less difficulty.
30． Which of the following describes Stratagem Two?
A．Shutting the door to catch the thief. B．Catching your enemy’s leader first.
C．Letting the enemy off to catch him later. D．Tricking the tiger out of the mountain.
31．From the stratagems above, we know that ________.
A．it is wise for you to attack enemies in their own places
B．it is impossible for people to make others lose their guard
C．it is dangerous to give your enemies a chance to run away
D．it is better to shoot the man on horse-back first not the horse
32．Where can we probably read Thirty-Six Stratagems?
A．In a guide book. B．In an art book.
C．In a science book. D．In a classical book.

【短文大意】
本文主要讲苏炳添不断打破记录使世界震惊。
【答案解析】
48．句意：好多年了。对亚洲运动员来说，在100米比赛中打破10秒的障碍是不可能完成的任务。根据“For years”及后文“was”可知用一般过去时，it后用be动词was。故填was。
49．句意：这种情况很有可能与基因有关。句中缺少副词修饰形容词，high的副词形式highly，意为“很，非常”。故填highly。
50．句意：但随着苏在国际比赛中取得越来越大的进步，基因理论并不成立。根据“this situation had something to do with genes”可知此处特指上文提到的基因理论，用定冠词the。故填the。
51．句意：2015年，苏向世界展示了他在100米比赛中打破10秒大关的惊人能力，跑出了9秒99。形容词修饰名词，able的名词形式ability，意为“能力”，此处特指“在100米比赛中打破10秒大关”的能力，用单数。故填ability。
52．句意：但是中国运动员要想以9秒58的成绩打破世界纪录还有很长的路要走，已经开始了他的旅程。前后句子句意出现转折，用but表示“但是”，句子开头首字母大写。故填But。
53．句意：值得注意的是，苏不仅是一名运动员，还是暨南大学的教授。be worth doing sth.“值得做某事”。故填noticing。
54．句意：在2019年发表的一篇学术论文中，苏表示，中国田径的传统训练过于注重增强运动员的体能。先行词“paper”与动词publish之间是动宾关系，结合“in 2019”可知用一般过去时的被动语态，先行词是单数，be动词用was。故填was published。
55．句意：在2019年发表的一篇学术论文中，苏表示，中国田径的传统训练过于注重增强运动员的体能。根据“said”可知主过从必过，pay的过去式paid。故填paid。
56．句意：但苏的训练场要复杂得多，现场有许多高科技电子设备。根据“Su’s training ground was much more sophisticated”可知此处要讲训练场中包括的东西，including“包括”。故填including。
57．句意：后来，人们认为他所做的是如此有价值，以至于许多其他跑步者都想以他为榜样。was后接形容词作表语，value的形容词valuable，意为“有价值的”。故填valuable。

Sports in my eyes
There are many kinds of sports that I’ve tried before. Among them, I like running best.
Running is an easy and interesting sport, which can be done at any time and place as you like. What’s more, we don’t need to prepare any tools for running. We can become healthier and stronger as long as we keep running. And we can relax ourselves from much pressure by running. As for me, I run at least 30 minutes in the school playground every day, because my home is next to the school. Sometimes I run slowly, but sometimes I run fast. Running gives me a lot of fun. I think playing football is also good. If I have a chance, I’d like to try playing football.
I hope I can keep the habit of running and keep healthy.
