阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Europe is the second smallest continent in size but the third largest in population. Here are some facts to share.
People
About 10% of the world’s population lives in Europe. Most of the European population groups, almost 90%, belong to the three Indo-European language groups of the Slavic, Romance and Germanic language groups. According to the World Happiness Report from 2018 to 2020, the World’s happiest people live in Finland—and they won for the last three years in a row!
Languages
Most European languages belong to either the Romance language family such as French, Italian and Spanish, the Germanic language family, among which are German and English, or the Slavic language family, among which are Russian, Bulgarian and Polish. Russian is the language with most native speakers—about 100 million, while English is the language spoken by most people as a first language and a second language—about 270 million people. The five most spoken native languages in Europe are Russian, German, French, English and Italian.
Animals
In Europe, there are 270 species of mammals (哺乳动物) such as bats, deer and hares. Of all mammal species 15% are endangered, such as wolves and bears. There are 75 species of amphibians(两栖动物)in
Europe, most of which are unique to Southern Europe. Slightly more than half of the 800 European bird species breed in Europe, and all the others migrate to warmer regions during the cold winter months.
Natural resources
Metals such as zinc and silver and minerals such as copper and coal are found in Europe. Some areas in northern Europe have deposits of natural gas and oil.
Agriculture
The most common crops in Europe are cereals(谷类植物) such as wheat, corn as well as sugar beets, potatoes, vegetables and fruits. France is Europe’s biggest producer of agricultural products.
1. What can we infer about the European population from the text?
A. The population in Europe has decreased slightly.
B. Europe is thickly populated at the present time.
C. People in Europe belong to three language families.
D. People living in Europe are the happiest in the world.
2. What do we know about the languages in Europe?
A. English belongs to the Romance language family.
B. English is the language with most native speakers.
C. The number of native Polish speakers is not very big.
D. French belongs to the Slavic language family.
3. Which of the following about Europe is right?
A. Europe doesn’t produce natural gas or oil.
B. Most animal species in Europe are endangered.
C. France produces the most agricultural products in Europe.
D. Over 400 European bird species fly to warmer areas in winter.
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章从人口、语言、动物、自然资源和农业等方面介绍了欧洲的基本情况。
【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Europe is the second smallest continent in size but the third largest in population.(欧洲是面积第二小的大陆，但人口第三大。)”以及People中的“About 10% of the world’s population lives in Europe.(世界上大约10%的人口生活在欧洲。)”可知，欧洲是面积第二小的大陆，但人口却是第三大，全世界大约10%的人口生活在欧洲。由此可推知，欧洲的人口密度很大。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Languages中的“Most European languages belong to either the Romance language family such as French, Italian and Spanish, the Germanic language family, among which are German and English, or the Slavic language family, among which are Russian, Bulgarian and Polish. Russian is the language with most native speakers—about 100 million, while English is the language spoken by most people as a first language and a second language—about 270 million people. The five most spoken native languages in Europe are Russian, German, French, English and Italian. (大多数欧洲语言要么属于罗曼语系，如法语、意大利语和西班牙语，要么属于日耳曼语系，其中包括德语和英语，要么属于斯拉夫语系，其中包括俄语、保加利亚语和波兰语。俄语是母语使用者最多的语言——大约有1亿人，而英语是大多数人作为第一语言和第二语言使用的语言——大约有2.7亿人。欧洲最常用的五种母语是俄语、德语、法语、英语和意大利语。)”可知，法语属于罗曼语系，英语属于日耳曼语系，俄语是母语使用者最多的语言，故A、B、D项均错，波兰语不属于欧洲最常用的母语，由此可推知，以波兰语为母语的使用者人数不多。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Natural resources中的“Some areas in northern Europe have deposits of natural gas and oil.(北欧的一些地区蕴藏着天然气和石油。)”可知，北欧的一些地区蕴藏有天然气和石油，A项错误；根据文章Animals中的“In Europe, there are 270 species of mammals (哺乳动物) such as bats, deer and hares. Of all mammal species 15% are endangered(在欧洲，有270种哺乳动物，如蝙蝠、鹿和野兔。所有哺乳动物中有15%濒临灭绝)”和“Slightly more than half of the 800 European bird species breed in Europe, and all the others migrate to warmer regions during the cold winter months.(在欧洲800种鸟类中，略多于一半的鸟类在欧洲繁殖，所有其他鸟类在寒冷的冬季迁徙到温暖的地区。)”可知，哺乳动物中有15%濒临灭绝，并非大多数；欧洲800种鸟类中，略多于一半的鸟类在欧洲繁殖，剩下其他鸟类会在冬天迁徙到温暖地区，也就是说不到一半的鸟类会迁徙，B项、D项错误；根据文章Agriculture中的“France is Europe’s biggest producer of agricultural products.(法国是欧洲最大的农产品生产国。)”可知，法国是欧洲最大的农产品生产国，故选C项。
B
John Frederick Kensett was born on March 22, 1816 in Cheshire, Connecticut. He attended school at Cheshire Academy, and studied carving with his immigrant father, Tomas Kensett, and later with his uncle. He worked as a carver in the New Haven area until about 1838, after which he went to work as a banknote carver in New York City. He didn’t know his carving experience would benefit him later. In 1840, Kensett traveled to Europe in order to study painting. He sketched (画素描) and painted throughout Europe, improving his talents. During this period, Kensett developed an affection for the 17th-century Dutch landscape painting. He returned to the United States in 1847.
After establishing his studio and settling in New York, Kensett traveled extensively throughout the Northeast and the Colorado Rockies as well as making several trips back to Europe.
Kensett is best known for his landscape of New York and New England and seascapes (海景画) of coastal New Jersey, Long Island and New England. He is most closely associated with the so-called “second generation” of the Hudson River School. In 1851 Kensett painted a monumental canvas (巨幅油画) of Mount Washington that has become a sign of White Mountain art.
Kensett’s style evolved gradually, from the traditional Hudson River School manner in the 1850s into the more improved Luminist style in his later years. By the early 1870s Kensett was spending considerable time at his home on Contentment Island, on Long Island Sound near Darien Connecticut.
It was during this time that Kensett painted some of his finest works. Many of these were seascapes, the major example being Eaton’s Neck, Long Island (1872) now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
The artist was widely praised and financially successful during his lifetime. In turn, he was generous in support of the arts and artists. He was a full member of the National Academy of Design, the founder and president of the Artists’ Fund Society, and a founder of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Kensett died of heart failure at his New York studio on December 14, 1872.
4. What can we learn about Kensett from the first paragraph?
A He studied carving at Cheshire Academy.
B. His uncle taught him to paint before 1840.
C. His carving work laid a foundation for his painting.
D. He painted throughout Europe to earn some money.
5. What was the feature of Kensett’s paintings?
A. Most of them were in Luminist style.
B. They had nothing to do with White Mountain art.
C. They were once influenced by the Hudson River School.
D. All of them were closely associated with carving art.
6. When did Kensett produce his best paintings?
A. When he first traveled in Europe.
B. When he painted a monumental canvas.
C. When he learned the Dutch landscape painting.
D. When he was in Connecticut in the early 1870s.
7. What can we infer about Kensett’s later life?
A. He had financial problems.
B. He retired early because of ill health.
C. He gained both fame and income.
D. He devoted himself to charity work.
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇人物传记。文章介绍了美国著名画家Kensett的一些经历和成就。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“He worked as a carver in the New Haven area until about 1838, after which he went to work as a banknote carver in New York City. He didn’t know his carving experience would benefit him later. In 1840, Kensett traveled to Europe in order to study painting. (他在纽黑文地区做雕刻工，直到1838年左右，之后他去纽约市做纸币雕刻工。他不知道自己的雕刻经验日后会给他带来好处。1840年，肯赛特前往欧洲学习绘画)”可知，Kensett一开始是一名雕刻工，他不知道他的雕刻经验日后会给他带来好处，后来他去欧洲学习了绘画，而他的雕刻经验为他的绘画学习打下了扎实的基础。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Kensett is best known for his landscape of New York and New England and seascapes (海景画) of coastal New Jersey, Long Island and New England. He is most closely associated with the so-called “second generation” of the Hudson River School.(肯赛特最著名的作品是纽约和新英格兰的风景画，以及新泽西、长岛和新英格兰沿海的海景画。他与所谓的哈德逊河学派的“第二代”联系最为密切)”可知，Kensett的画被誉为哈德逊河学派“第二代”。由此可知，Kensett的画深受哈德逊河学派影响。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“By the early 1870s Kensett was spending considerable time at his home on Contentment Island, on Long Island Sound near Darien Connecticut.(到19世纪70年代初，肯塞特在康涅狄格州达里恩附近的长岛海峡的知足岛上的家中度过了相当长的时间)”及第五段“It was during this time that Kensett painted some of his finest works.(正是在这段时间里，肯塞特画了一些他最好的作品)”可知，正是在19世纪70年代初在康涅狄格州的时候，Kensett画出了一些最好的作品。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“The artist was widely praised and financially successful during his lifetime. In turn, he was generous in support of the arts and artists. He was a full member of the National Academy of Design, the founder and president of the Artists’ Fund Society, and a founder of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.(这位艺术家生前广受赞誉，经济上也很成功。反过来，他也慷慨地支持艺术和艺术家。他是美国国家设计学院的正式成员，艺术家基金协会的创始人和主席，大都会艺术博物馆的创始人之一)”可知，Kensett生前广受赞誉，在经济上也很成功。由此可推知，Kensett晚年可以说名利双收。故选C项。
C
Right now you should know about two ways to represent numbers, as Roman numerals and Arabic numerals. Plus, people in other countries use different symbols for numbers. With all these different symbols, how can math be a universal language?
Math is a universal language because the principles and foundations of math are the same everywhere around the world. Ten plus ten equals twenty if you write it as Arabic numerals 10+10=20 or Roman numerals X+X=XX. The concept of 20 items is the same no matter where you are in the world.
And what about geometry(几何)? A circle is always a circle and its circumference (周长) is always calculated the same way no matter where you are in the world. The same holds true for any other figure like triangles, squares or rectangles.
We like to visit other countries to experience new scenery, new foods and a different culture. It’s fun to watch documentaries about festivals that we don’t have in North America. There is a great deal of cultural diversity in the world that we can enjoy and celebrate. But math is one thing that is common to everyone.
Different countries use different units of measurement; for example, the United States and the United Kingdom use inches and feet while the rest of Europe uses metric measurements of centimeters and meters. But no matter what the units are, everyone must measure the house that they are building. Houses everywhere, whether they are square or round, are built using the same mathematical equations(方程式).
The principles of probability are the same everywhere as well The chance of rain in Guatemala might be greater than the chance of rain in the Sahara Desert but probability works the same way. People around the world have different genes but the probability of passing on genes to their children follows the same mathematical rules.
It is easy to see that no matter how diverse different cultures are, math is one common language across the world.
8. How many ways to stand for numbers are mentioned in the text?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
9. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning geometry in the third paragraph?
A. To highlight the importance of math.
B. To study different shapes and forms.
C. To show how to calculate the circumference.
D. To prove math calculation is often used in it is always the same.
10. What does the underlined word“figure”mean in the third paragraph?
A. Shape. B. Size. C. Picture. D. Field.
11. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A. Math has no distinct characteristics of diversity.
B. Documentaries about festivals are always fun.
C. People hope to experience different cultures abroad.
D. Culture has a huge impact on the development of math.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章说明了数学是一种通用性语言，数学的原理和基础在世界各地是一样的。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Right now you should know about two ways to represent numbers, as Roman numerals and Arabic numerals.(现在你应该知道两种表示数字的方法，罗马数字和阿拉伯数字。)”可知，文章提到了罗马数字和阿拉伯数字这两种表示数字的方法。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“And, what about geometry(几何)? A circle is always a circle and its circumference (周长) is always calculated the same way no matter where you are in the world. The same holds true for any other figure like triangles, squares or rectangles.(那么，几何呢？圆始终是圆，无论你在世界上的哪个地方，它的周长都是用同样的方法计算的。这同样适用于任何其他图形，如三角形、正方形或矩形。)”以及文章第二段第一句话“Math is a universal language because the principles and foundations of math are the same everywhere around the world.(数学是一种通用语言，因为数学的原理和基础在世界各地都是一样的。)”可知，作者提到几何，是想表达它们的计算方式总是一样的，是为了论证第二段第一句话：数学是一种通用性语言，它的原理和基础在世界各地都是一样的。故选D项。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“The same holds true for any other figure like triangles, squares or rectangles.(这同样适用于任何其他图形，如三角形、正方形或矩形。)”可知，这同样适用于其他任何figure，如三角形，正方形或矩形。三角形、正方形、矩形等都是figure的代表，这些都是图形。由此可推知figure此处应指“图形”。A. Shape.图形；B. Size.尺寸；C. Picture.图片；D. Field.田地、领域。figure与shape为同义表达。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“We like to visit other countries to experience new scenery, new foods and a different culture. It’s fun to watch documentaries about festivals that we don’t have in North America. There is a great deal of cultural diversity in the world that we can enjoy and celebrate. But math is one thing that is common to everyone.(我们喜欢到其他国家去体验新的风景、新的食物和不同的文化。看关于电影节的纪录片很有趣，这在北美是没有的。世界上有大量的文化多样性，我们可以享受和庆祝。但数学对每个人来说都很常见。)”可知，世界上有大量的 文化多样性，但是数学对每个人来说都很常见。由此可推知，数学没有多样性。故选A项。
D
In Illinois, legislators (立法委员) and advocates of removing the state’s lead (铅) service lines said on Monday that a newly signed law moves the state closer to removing that “toxic infrastructure (基础设施)”and ensuring all Illinoisans have clean water to drink.
State Senator Melinda Bush, a supporter of the legislation, said the lines are a health threat that not only costs us billions of dollars, but poisons our children and destroys our residents’ confidence in their water supply.
“Passing this bill with strong support shows a basic truth about lead in our drinking water—it affects all of us, and every single one of us, especially our children, deserves clean, safe drinking water,” Bush said.
The Lead Service Line Replacement Notification Act creates timelines for owners and operators of community water supplies that have lead service lines to make a list of those lines and create replacement plans. Water suppliers will have to submit their replacement plan to the Environmental Protection Agency by April 2024. The law also requires the state’s Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to create a low-income water assistance policy and program to ensure state residents have access to affordable, clean water.
Lead in drinking water has long been linked to a host of health problems, including kidney failure, heart disease, learning disabilities and impaired(受损的) hearing. Studies have found that even tiny amounts of lead can damage children’s brains.
Bush said it’s estimated that Illinois has about an eighth of all known lead service lines in the country.
Service lines are the pipes that carry water from a city’s street mains to homes. Not only does Illinois have one-eighth of the lead service lines in the country, but 300,000 to 500.000 of them are in Chicago.
“Although this is a statewide problem, we know that this toxic infrastructure really affects Illinois’ people,” Bush said.
12. What does the underlined word “toxic” mean in the first paragraph?
A. Basic. B. Common. C. Healthy. D. Poisonous.
13. Why must the newly signed law be carried out as soon as possible?
A. To warn water suppliers to offer clean water.
B. To test whether the water system works well.
C. To raise the confidence of all the Illinoisans.
D. To make sure residents have safe drinking water.
14. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A. The submitted policy must favour the poor families.
B. The residents in Illinois haven’t realized the possible dangers.
C. Water suppliers have submitted a practical replacement plan.
D. The government should inspect community water supplies regularly.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Statewide Lead in Water Is Hurting You
B. Lead in Water Is Damaging Kids’ Brains
C. Getting the Lead Out with the New Technology
D. A New Law Urges to Remove Lead Service Lines
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一项新法律将敦促拆除伊利诺斯州的含铅管道，确保该州居民喝上干净的水。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第一段“In Illinois, legislators (立法委员) and advocates of removing the state’s lead (铅) service lines said on Monday that a newly signed law moves the state closer to removing that “toxic infrastructure(基础设施)”and ensuring all Illinoisans have clean water to drink.(在伊利诺伊州，立法者和支持拆除该州铅管道的人士周一表示，一项新签署的法律使该州离拆除“toxic基础设施”更近了一步，并确保所有伊利诺伊州人都能喝上干净的水)”可知，这里的toxic基础设施实际上就是前面的铅管道，而铅对人体是有害的。由此可推知，此处的toxic也应为负面词，意为“有毒的”，与poisonous同义。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In Illinois, legislators(立法委员) and advocates of removing the state’s lead(铅) service lines said on Monday that a newly signed law moves the state closer to removing that “toxic infrastructure(基础设施)”and ensuring all Illinoisans have clean water to drink.(在伊利诺斯州，立法者和移除该州铅管线的倡导者周一表示，一项新签署的法律使该州离移除“有毒基础设施”更近了一步，并确保所有伊利诺斯州人都有干净的水喝)”可知，新签署的法律确保所有伊利诺斯州人都有干净的水喝。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The law also requires the state’s Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to create a low-income water assistance policy and program to ensure state residents have access to affordable, clean water.(该法律还要求该州商业和经济机会部制定一项低收入水援助政策和计划，以确保该州居民能够获得负担得起的干净的水)”可知，该法律还要求该州商业和经济机会部制定低收入水援助政策和计划，确保该州居民能负担得起干净的水。由此可推知，所提交的政策必须有利于贫困家庭。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“In Illinois, legislators(立法委员) and advocates of removing the state’s lead(铅) service lines said on Monday that a newly signed law moves the state closer to removing that “toxic infrastructure(基础设施)”and ensuring all Illinoisans have clean water to drink.(在伊利诺斯州，立法者和移除该州铅管线的倡导者周一表示，一项新签署的法律使该州离移除“有毒基础设施”更近了一步，并确保所有伊利诺斯州人都有干净的水喝)”可知，文章开篇提出了一项新法律将敦促拆除含铅的管线，下文介绍了新法律的具体要求。由此可知，D项“A New Law Urges to Remove Lead Service Lines(一项新法律敦促拆除含铅管线)”最能概括本文内容。故选D项。

47. 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。
Jenny was the coolest kid in her class. Whenever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did.
Her deskmate, Rose, however, was not in the cool kids’ group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was teased by her classmates, who were always chanting “Rose, Rose, long as spaghetti (意大利面)”. Every time Rose heard those silly chants, she could feel her face burst into flames. God knew how she wished the ground to crack and swallow her!
Jenny didn’t really like it when the kids chanted “Rose, Rose, long as spaghetti”. But she never told them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular.
One weekend, Jenny went over to her grandfather for Thanksgiving. Her grandfather lives on a farm at the opposite end of town, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Jenny noticed a peculiar one. Curling in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare!
“What’s the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her grandfather told her how chickens could act. “They have a pecking (啄) order,” he explained, wrinkles of concern spreading around his forehead. “If one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.”
“Oh, what a poor little thing!” Jenny let out a sigh as she scooped the frightened chicken up in her arms, whose heart was beating fast in the bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Rose, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m going to take it home and take good care of it,” she said with a determined look.
Back in school, Jenny told the cool kids about the chicken. “It’s looking healthy,” she said proudly.
“It’s fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around the garden, and...” Everyone was entertained by Jenny’s story of her lovely chicken, laughter lingering around the classroom.
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。
Paragraph 1:
Then Jenny spotted Rose sitting by herself in a corner.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
But Jenny walked directly toward Rose, regardless of what they said.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文：
Possible version：
Then Jenny spotted Rose sitting by herself in a corner. She kept her head down with her eyes fixed on the floor as usual. It hit Jenny that the pecking order worked in school, too. Rose was just like the poor little chicken, being teased and ignored by her classmates, merely due to her special height. “It’s time for me to make an apology to Rose.” Jenny thought to herself. No sooner had she made up her mind than she announced it to the cool kids surrounding her. Astonished at what she said, all the kids burst out screaming, “Talking to the long spaghetti? Are you crazy?”
But Jenny walked directly toward Rose, regardless of what they said. “Hi, Rose. I’m sorry about the spaghetti thing.”Jenny murmured an apology, her face reddening. “I know it hurts you. Can you forgive us?” She figured Rose might just walk away. But she lifted her misty eyes and nodded yes. Jenny wiped away her tears, giving her a warm hug. Moved by the scene, the other kids also came to offer their sincere apologies to Rose. From that day on, no one made up silly chants about Rose, and Jenny also gained an important life lesson that everyone should be treated equally no matter how special he or she was.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Jenny一开始在班上看到同学取笑自己的同桌Rose时，没什么反应。但后来去爷爷家过感恩节，看到一只小鸡由于与其他鸡不同而被啄，联想到了自己的同桌，后来带领班上同学向同桌Rose道歉的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写
由第一段首句内容“然后珍妮发现罗斯一个人坐在角落里。”可知，第一段可描写Jenny注意到同桌Rose一个人坐在角落里时的反应。
‚由第二段首句内容“但是珍妮直接走向罗斯，不管他们说什么。”可知，第二段可描写Jenny带着同学向Rose道歉后，Rose与其他同学的反应。
2.续写线索：注意到Rose——联想到Rose的处境——决定道歉——道歉——感悟
3.词汇激活
