Check out these places and have the vacation of a lifetime in Greece!
1. Lovely Ithaca
Located on the Ionian Sea, Ithaca is a combination of the greenest landscapes in Greece, the most wonderful swimming waters and a lively local atmosphere. When going around the narrow island, you will be attracted by the hilltop village Stavros and the beautiful fishing village Frikes. For motorists, Kaminia beach, hidden in a peaceful cove, is the perfect destination for a day of relaxation.
2. Breathtaking Meteora
Although when you go to Greece, you often go to the beaches and islands, one of the must-visit destinations in Greece is definitely the breathtakingly beautiful Meteora, located on the mainland next to the village of Kalabaka. It is a natural attraction and the second most important monastic area in Greece, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Meteora’s landscape is made special by the rocks shaped like columns (柱状物) over time, on which the Monasteries (修道院) of the area were built around the 14th and 16th centuries.
3. Ios－the favorite destination of the future
Ios may be left out of many people’s plans as it is known as a party island, but in fact the party season only lasts from about half of June to mid-August. In the off-season, the island is very quiet compared to popular destinations such as Santorini. Of course, Ios is an absolute destination for party-goers even in midsummer. Ios is dotted with a number of small churches. What makes Ios interesting is its setting for an ideal holiday without crowds and noise. Here is a guaranteed hit of the future, waiting to be discovered!
21．Where is Kaminia beach located?
A．In Ithaca. B．In Meteora. C．In Ios. D．In Santorini.

In a post shared on Twitter last Monday, the woman, Amy Clukey, explained that her dad, a beekeeper, died of lung cancer about nine years ago. But, before passing away, he wrote a note that he hoped one of his children would later find, and finally after so long, her little brother, who is now 16 years old, found it in his father’s beekeeping clothes.
The note said, “I hope one of my children is curious about beekeeping. Beekeeping is actually pretty easy and you can learn everything online. So don’t be afraid, have courage. Good luck. Love Dad.”
Amy explained that her father bought a farm when he was in his 40s, and it was then that he took up beekeeping and other hobbies like raising cattle and horses. She added, “When he was diagnosed(诊断) with stage 4 lung cancer, the doctors told him that he had 18 months to live. He was a fighter. He lived 5 years and a week after his diagnosis.”
The post has received over 42, 800 likes, 2,333 comments, and 749,000 re-shares in less than 24 hours, and in the comments, the woman added that while she doesn’t do beekeeping herself, two of her brothers are interested in it.
One user commented, “I lost my dad in 2018. This post makes me cry.” And another user said, “My dad is in the last few weeks of his life battling cancer. I’ll come back to the post in a couple of months when I need it again.” And one also shared the story of her personal loss, writing, “I lost my husband half a year ago. He used to leave little notes all over the house. I can’t bring myself to move anything.”

With intelligent systems and new-age transit networks, life in the big cities will likely be happier and more efficient.
After all, more than 60 percent of the world’s population is expected to live in cities by 2050, according to a UN report. The answer to making these cities more livable for so many people lies in creating “smart” cities. These cities will use 5G networks and the “internet of things” (IoT) to make everyday life safer and more convenient. Some cities are already using smart technology to improve the lives of residents.
But what exactly does a smart city do? In the United States cities of Boston and Baltimore, smart trash cans can sense how full they are and inform cleaning workers when they need to be emptied. In Amsterdam, the Netherlands, traffic flow and energy usage are monitored and adjusted according to real-time data gathered from sensors (传感器) around the city. And in Copenhagen, Denmark, a smart bike system allows riders to check on air quality and traffic condition as they ride.
Smart cities will be interactive, allowing their residents to feel like they’re truly shaping their environment, instead of merely existing in it. “One of the most important reasons to have a smart city is that we can actually communicate with our environment in a way that we never have in the past,” said Mrinalini Ingram, head of a telecom company.
“Smart cities will also allow us to save resources.” said Mrinalini Ingram.“By using sensors and 5G networks to monitor the use of water, gas and electricity, city managers can figure out how to distribute and save these resources more efficiently. Emissions of carbon dioxide and other air pollutants can be more closely monitored in smart cities as well.”
Of course, it will take time and money to turn our current cities into the smart cities of the future. But as we’ve already seen, more cities around the world are already adopting smart technology in small ways. China, for instance, is making investments in big cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou to make them “smarter”. It won’t be long until even more cities start to develop their own smart infrastructure (基础设施).
28．What calls for the development of smart cities?
A．The rapid progress in 5G networks.
B．The marked increase in world population.
C．The growing number of residents living in cities.
D．The major concern over the safety of living in cities.
29．How does the author explain the way smart cities work?
A．By making a contrast.
B．By giving examples.
C．By listing figures.
D．By telling a story.
30．What can we learn from Mrinalini Ingram about smart cities?
A．Air pollution will be stopped in its track.
B．People will be better aware of environmental protection.
C．People will be able to make the most of our environment at will.
D．Resources can be saved by keeping track of how they are used.
31．What is the author’s attitude toward smart cities?
A．Indifferent. B．Critical. C．Positive. D．Doubtful.
D
Quantum (量子) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I’ve also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor.
For decades, quantum computing has been little more than a laboratory curiosity. Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us “cure cancer, and even take steps to turn climate change in the opposite direction.” This is the sort of hype ( 炒 作 ) that annoys Johnson. He worries that researchers are making promises they can’t keep. “What’s new,” Johnson wrote, “is that millions of dollars are now potentially available to quantum computing researchers.”
As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work’s potential. If researchers can’t keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. Lots of other technologies have gone through stages of excitement. But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because “quantum” stands for something cool you shouldn’t be able to understand. And that brings me back to Taylor, who suggested that I read his book Q for Quantum.
After I read the book, Taylor patiently answered my questions about it. He also answered my questions about PyQuantum, the firm he co-founded in 2016. Taylor shares Johnson’s concerns about hype, but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.
The company, he says, is closer than any other firm “by a very large margin ( 幅 度 )” to building a “useful” quantum computer, one that “solves an important problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.” He adds, “People will naturally discount my opinions, but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.”
Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition “by a wide margin”, as Taylor claims? I don’t know. I’m certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers. But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson.
32．How does the author feels about Johnson’s concerns?
A．Approving. B．Unconcerned C．Doubtful D．Excited.
33．What leads to Taylor’s optimism about quantum computing?
A．His dominance in physics. B．The competition in the field.
C．His confidence in PyQuantum. D．The investment of tech companies.
34．What does the underlined word “prone” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A．Open. B．Cool. C．Useful. D．Resistant.
35．Which would be the best title for the passage?
A．Is Quantum Computing A Solution to all Challenges?
B．Is Quantum Computing Redefining Technology?
C．Will Quantum Computers Ever Come into Being?
D．Will Quantum Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype?

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。
For as long as I could remember, I had wanted to travel into the Amazon jungle. During the last summer break at university, I decided to travel there. I didn’t have much money. So I found the least expensive flight to Lima, Peru. Once there, I planned on traveling to the town of La Merced. To get there, however, I had to take a taxi for the next fourteen hours.
By the time I reached La Merced, I found a hotel and asked the man at the front desk if there were any travel routes into the jungle. His simple answer was “no”. In fact, there was no way to go farther into the jungle except by hiring a boat to travel down the Amazon. However, I found that an impossible choice.
At that point, I decided to go out and get something to eat. I had walked less than a minute from the hotel when a rainstorm swept across the town. I raced ahead to the closest restaurant to get out of the rain.
I took a table by myself and ordered a meal. I was very tired. I was also feeling sorry for myself. I had flown down to Peru and then taken a fourteen—hour journey in a taxi only to discover there was no way to get into the jungle.
Then, I saw an old man. He headed over to my table. “Hi, my name’s Fritz,” he said in English. With a smile, I introduced myself and we talked for half an hour. I told him my story. He could see I was tired and unhappy, and his eyes softened as he listened.
“Come with me and stay with me and my wife Helga at our home in the jungle. We have a coffee plantation (种植园) there. You can stay as long as you’d like. At six o’clock tomorrow morning, I’ll pick you up at the hotel and take you on a trip into the jungle,” Fritz said.
“Thank you very much,” I said. “Six o’clock tomorrow morning.”
Honestly, I didn’t expect he would appear.
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。
At 6:00 the next morning, I heard a car honking (鸣喇叭) outside my hotel.

【原文】 M: Today, I’d like to tell you a story. This happened when I was about eight or nine. I went to a large school in the city center. We didn’t know anything about the countryside — all we knew about was London. So, one day my teacher decided to take the class to the countryside. It was a two-hour journey in the school bus. We started out at 8:00, and when we got there, we looked at trees and nature and birds and things like that. Anyway, on the final part of the trip, in the afternoon, we went horse-riding. Now, it was the first time most of us had even seen a horse, and we had to get on it and ride. And everyone was moving really slowly on these horses. And, what did my horse do? It decided to run off, with me on top of it. At first it didn’t go too fast. But all of a sudden it started moving very fast. So there I was screaming and shouting, with my arms around this horse, and it just wouldn’t stop. I don’t know how I didn’t fall off. Eventually, I managed to stop it. And afterwards I was so frightened that I was shaking for about an hour. It was the most embarrassing and frightening experience. I’ll never forget it. I’ve never been on a horse since that day.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了智能城市的优势和发展前景。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段“After all, more than 60 percent of the world’s population is expected to live in cities by 2050, according to a UN report. The answer to making these cities more livable for so many people lies in creating “smart” cities. (毕竟，根据联合国的一份报告，到2050年，预计全球60%以上的人口将居住在城市。让这些城市更适合这么多人居住的答案在于创造“智能”城市。)”可知因为越来越多的居民居住在城市里，需要创造智能城市。故选C。
29．推理判断题。根据第三段“But what exactly does a smart city do? In the United States cities of Boston and Baltimore, smart trash cans can sense how full they are and inform cleaning workers when they need to be emptied. In Amsterdam, the Netherlands, traffic flow and energy usage are monitored and adjusted according to real-time data gathered from sensors (传感器) around the city. And in Copenhagen, Denmark, a smart bike system allows riders to check on air quality and traffic condition as they ride. (但智能城市到底能做什么呢?在美国的波士顿和巴尔的摩，智能垃圾桶可以感知它们有多满，并在需要清空时通知清洁工人。在荷兰阿姆斯特丹，交通流量和能源使用情况根据城市周围传感器收集的实时数据进行监控和调整。在丹麦的哥本哈根，一个智能自行车系统可以让骑车的人在骑车时检查空气质量和交通状况。)”可知是通过举例子来解释智能城市的运作方式，故选B。
30．推理判断题。根据第五段“ “Smart cities will also allow us to save resources.” said Mrinalini Ingram. “By using sensors and 5G networks to monitor the use of water, gas and electricity, city managers can figure out how to distribute and save these resources more efficiently. Emissions of carbon dioxide and other air pollutants can be more closely monitored in smart cities as well.” (“智能城市还能让我们节约资源。”姆里纳利尼·英格拉姆说。“通过使用传感器和5G网络来监测水、气和电的使用情况，城市管理者可以找出如何更有效地分配和节约这些资源。在智能城市中，二氧化碳和其他空气污染物的排放也可以得到更密切的监测。”) ”可推断通过跟踪资源的使用情况可以节省资源。故选D。
31．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Of course, it will take time and money to turn our current cities into the smart cities of the future. But as we’ve already seen, more cities around the world are already adopting smart technology in small ways. China, for instance, is making investments in big cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou to make them “smarter”. It won’t be long until even more cities start to develop their own smart infrastructure (基础设施). (当然，把我们现在的城市变成未来的智能城市需要时间和金钱。但正如我们已经看到的，世界各地越来越多的城市已经在小规模地采用智能技术。例如，中国正在上海和广州等大城市进行投资，使它们变得“更智能”。用不了多久，就会有更多的城市开始发展自己的智能基础设施。)”可知作者对智能城市的态度是积极的，乐观的。故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕“量子计算真的会像它宣传的那样成功吗？”展开论述，并展示了计算机科学家克里斯·约翰逊和物理学家菲利普·泰勒的观点。
32．推理判断题。根据最后一段“But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson (但是我相信泰勒，就像我相信约翰逊一样)”可知，作者相信约翰逊，所以对约翰逊的担忧会持支持的态度，故选A项。
33．推理判断题。根据第五段“The company, he says, is closer than any other firm ‘by a very large margin ( 幅 度 )’ to building a ‘useful’ quantum computer, one that ‘solves an important problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.’ He adds, ‘People will naturally discount my opinions, but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.’(他说，这家公司比其他任何公司都在很大程度上接近于制造出有用的量子计算机，它解决了一个有影响力的问题，否则我们无法解决这个问题。他还补充说道：“人们自然不会相信我的观点，但是我已经花了很多时间来定量地比较我们与他人的做法”)”可推知，泰勒对量子计算的乐观来自于他对PyQuantum的信心，故选C项。
34．词句猜测题。根据第三段“But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because “quantum” stands for something cool you shouldn’t be able to understand.(但是约翰逊表明，量子计算的某些方面使得它特别……被炒作，或许是因为量子代表了一些你可能不理解的很酷的东西)”可推出，量子计算因量子代表了很酷的东西，所以容易被人炒作，划线词的含义应为“容易……的”，与形容词open“(容易)受……的”意思相近。故选A项。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段“Quantum (量子) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I’ve also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor. (量子计算机最近一直萦绕在我的脑海里。一位朋友一直在给我发文章，讨论量子计算机如何帮助解决我们人类面临的一些最大挑战。我还和两位量子计算专家交流过。其中一位是计算机科学家克里斯·约翰逊，我认为他是一个帮助保持该领域诚实的人。另一位是物理学家菲利普·泰勒。)”、第二段中“This is the sort of hype ( 炒 作 ) that annoys Johnson.(这种炒作让约翰逊很恼火。)”和第五段中“Taylor shares Johnson’s concerns about hype, but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.(泰勒和约翰逊一样担心炒作，但他说这些担忧并不适用于PyQuantum。)”可推知，作者通过计算机科学家克里斯·约翰逊和物理学家菲利普·泰勒的交流，探讨了量子计算是否是炒作，探讨了它成功的可能。所以D项“Will Quantum Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype?(量子计算会像它宣传的那样成功吗？)”是文章主题的最佳概括，适合作为标题，故选D项。

【分析】本文为议论文，首先提出两个关于水的不同观点：饮水能改善健康状况与记忆；饮水并不等同于健康，水合作用是体内电解质与水的平衡。然后从四方面对后者展开论证。
36．根据空前“how much water do you need to drink?”引出本段话题：你需要喝多少水。然后提出许多人对此的看法，并被专家否定了。后面对比不同人的需水量，说明了体重及其进行的活动不同，需水量不同，故选D项。
37．从空后“heart condition”“ kidney stones”(肾结石)“ A person taking diuretic drugs(利尿药)”“ vomiting or diarrhea”(呕吐或腹泻)可看出，该段主要在说需水量与个人身体健康状况有关，此空为该段的主旨句，故选F项。
38．根据空后“You also get water from what you eat.”该句表明人们可以从吃的事物中获取水，其中“also”，说明前面已经提出了一个人体中水的来源，G项“any drink can add water to your system.”符合要求，且与第一句“Water is a better choice than sugary sodas or fruit juices.”连贯，“any drink”与“sugary sodas or fruit juices”对应，故选G项。
39．根据空前“Your body will tell you if you are hydrated enough.”(你的身体会告诉你体内的水是否充足。)“You don't have to think about it or add up the ounces you drink.”(你不必思考这个问题也不必增加喝水量。)你口渴的时候就是身体在给你信号，所以你在这个时候喝水就可以了，不必专门去考虑体内的水是否充足，A项符合，故选A项。
40．根据空后“add electrolytes to stay healthy”表明电解质有利健康，说明电解质在人体内有重要作用，B项符合，“They”对应“Electrolytes”，“vital”对应“essential”，故选B项。

67．At 6:00 the next morning, I heard a car honking (呜喇叭) outside my hotel. I looked out and found Fritz sitting in a truck with a big smile. I hopped into his truck, and we were off. Within minutes, we were out of La Merced and into the jungle. The road quickly became a rough dirt road. Branches swept over the windows and frightened birds took flight as we drove through forests. After a two-hour adventure, we emerged into a clearing with a wooden house and a large vegetable garden.
For the next five days I was treated as a special guest in his home. Fritz’s wife Helga prepared meals for us. Fritz was more than anxious to show me around his coffee plantation. Their warmth and generosity were imprinted on my heart. When it came time to leave, Fritz drove me back to La Merced. As I said goodbye, I felt a wave of sadness wash over me. I realized I’d probably never see them again. I’d never forget the kindness of Fritz and Helga, and the amazing days I spent in their home.
