I bought the most delightful tangerine (柑橘) yesterday. It was plump and firm. At this wintry and white time of year, I wanted color and juice. When I bit into that perfect tangerine, I tasted happiness and an explosion of memory.
Nearly 30 years ago, my family spent several months in India. We were tired during one of our trips and were covered in a fine layer of dust. We quite enjoyed our cheap train meals, but everything looked brown. Even the landscape looked dry.
Suddenly the train pulled into a rare area of green, and colorfully dressed women carrying oranges came aboard. These oranges were covered in a layer of cool moisture (潮湿) and they breathed fresh air into our train car. Immediately, the color and sweetness and the female presence brought life and hope. We bought a dozen and spent the rest of our trip eating the most delicious oranges we had ever tasted.
They reminded me of another orange experience I had had when I was an art student in Toronto. I had caught a glimpse of the grocers (杂货店) and some cooking supply shops in Chinatown, an area I was living close to. And there were navel oranges (脐橙) ... huge, fresh and firm oranges whose peels almost fell off before your eyes. I have never seen oranges like them later again. Maybe these oranges truly no longer exist. In the fish-and-chip shop, they had an old orange juice machine that put orange juice into glass bottles. It was very refreshing when drunk with your order.
Sigh.
So much has changed since then. I am no longer a young art student. There is a pandemic. Hustle and bustle (熙熙攘攘) don’t exist for the moment. But oranges and fish and chips still do. Tiny pleasures are so good.
20．Why did the author mention one of her trips in India?
A．To tell why oranges in India are tasty.
B．To explain why she loves to eat oranges.
C．To share one of her good memories of oranges.
D．To recall the happy days spent with her family.
21．How did the fish-and-chip shop in a Chinatown in Toronto impress the author?
A．They sold different kinds of fruits.
B．They added orange juice to their dishes.
C．They provided freshly-made orange juice.
D．They were equipped with automatic orange peelers.
22．What message does the author want to tell us in this article?
A．Fruit is good for our health.
B．The pandemic has ruined our lives.
C．We have to adapt to changes in life.
D．We should cherish the small joys in life.

Everyone can try his best to achieve something. We don't need to be the best, but to challenge the limits of what we are capable of. I gained this belief from my third grade teacher, the most special, honored, trustworthy, and beloved person in my life.
Mr. Myrus was always perfectly dressed and spoke with the belief that talking to an eight－year－old child didn't mean he had to sacrifice proper statements or grammar. And he was demanding,__but he wasn't unreasonable or cruel. He simply felt that no matter what your best was, you should achieve it.
Luckily enough, I met him again as my eighth grade math teacher. I was not, nor ever will be, gifted in math. I remember my struggles in class. “I don't know the answer，” I would say. “I can't do it！” “Perhaps you don't know the answer，” he would say quietly. “Do you think we might figure it out together? How do you know what you can do if you don't have a try？”
Mr. Myrus lived around the corner, and I would often stop by to talk while he worked in his garden. I knew there was someone who let me know that if I had really tried, that was enough. “Don't be so hard on yourself，”he'd say.“Stop blaming yourself. Did you try your best? Well，then you're not a failure，” he often told me these words.
Mr. Myrus died in 1978. I had never thought about his death. He was too young. I felt sorry. But when I think about him now, I don't feel so sorry. He taught me to be kind, not only to others，but to myself. He taught me my own value. He taught me about honor, about truth, and about doing my best and he also taught me that all feelings and beliefs have dignity and deserve respect. And of all the things I know, I believe that we can't all be “the best”， but we can, each of us, be our best. And I know that's true because Mr. Myrus told me that.
23．What does the underlined word “demanding” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A．Strict. B．Indifferent.
C．Critical. D．Careful.
24．Why did the author think he was lucky in Paragraph 3?

B．Mr. Myrus was his teacher for eight years.
C．He became interested in math because of Mr. Myrus.
D．He developed a good relationship with Mr. Myrus.
25．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

B．The author liked to recall his childhood.
C．The author believed he would be the best of all.
D．The author ended up being a man of self－confidence.
26．What can we learn about Mr. Myrus according to the passage?

C．He is a person who isn't particular about what he wears.

To grow sugary dates in the sand, Siwa’s farmers must first make the desert suitable for farming. An oasis (绿洲) in Egypt, Siwa has been home to humans for thousands of years. Since ancient times, the oasis has hosted farms producing some of the most valuable dates in Egypt, and sugary dates have appeared on Egyptians, tables.
The desert environment in Siwa is not quite fit for plants to grow. For example, the water there contains much salt. However, with local people’s efforts, the Siwa oasis contains complex agricultural fields, where date trees, crops and other plants grow in harmony. That impressed me a lot during my visit to the oasis. To make a new piece of field, farmers first remove the top soil and replace it with a mixture of sand and waste matter from animals. The first plants are medicinal plants. Then, farmers plant date trees and olive trees. These farming skills are passed down from generation to generation.
To grow date trees is demanding. And it takes 10 years for a new date tree to mature, but once it does, the tree produces generous fruit: around 110 pounds of dates per year. Each farmer picks dates with the skilled hands. They climb the trees using nothing more than a belt. In total, Siwa grows more than 25,000 tons of dates from 280,000 trees per year.
The dates can be eaten fresh, or made dry. Every part of the date tree is significant in Siwa, from leaves made into beds and boxes to wood used to build houses. And then, of course, there’s the fruit itself. The dates can be cooked with goat meat or mixed with eggs for breakfast. They can also be mixed with flour, water, and olive oil, and boiled slowly to make a local dessert.
Local farmers once developed many unique date varieties, which their camels carried to Cairo. But later many of those varieties perished. And today only several major varieties remain and some have become quite rare and been at risk. The 1985 construction of a road in the oasis made the survival of local agricultural tradition even tougher.
27．What can we learn about sugary dates from Paragraph 1?
A．They can adapt to tough environment.
B．They have existed for a long time.
C．They’re introduced to Egypt from abroad.
D．They’re the most valuable fruit in Egypt.
28．What impressed the author a lot during his visit to Siwa?
A．The great variety of plants grown there,
B．The hard but happy life of local people.
C．The great complexity of the local agriculture.
D．The local farmers’ wisdom and contribution to farming.
29．What do the figures mentioned in Paragraph 3 show?
A．It’s worthwhile to make an effort to grow date trees.
B．It’s easy for farmers to pick dates from the trees.
C．It costs a lot to grow date trees in the basis.
D．It’s necessary to develop agriculture in Siwa.
30．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．People’s preference for dates.
B．The introduction to local food,
C．The usage of date trees’ different parts.
D．The locals’ high expectations of date trees.
31．What does the underlined word “perished” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A．Died out. B．Spread out.
C．Got created. D．Became known.

Derek and Shirley walked out of the airport building and into the bright sunshine. Looking up at the brilliant blue sky and then at the faraway mountains rising above the swaying palm trees, they couldn’t wait to start their holiday.
A taxi pulled up swiftly and silently. Derek dropped their suitcases into the boot and joined Shirley in the back seat. “Palm Trees Hotel, please,” Derek said excitedly. “Certainly, sir,” replied the driver, as he turned around with a flashing white smile. Derek and Shirley gave each other a puzzled look as the taxi eased smoothly into the traffic. “Excuse me, er, your face seems very familiar—in fact, you remind us of that famous film star, Rocky Overton... but of course, you can’t be.”
Derek and Shirley sat in silent disbelief as the driver explained that he was not a real person, but a robot made to look like a famous actor. “Rocky” explained that the taxi company had purchased the latest model of robot drivers since they were programmed to be safer and more reliable than human drivers. “So, here I am,” “Rocky” continued, “your first robot taxi driver!”
Derek and Shirley held each other’s hands more tightly. “Relax,” “Rocky” reassured them, “there is nothing for you to worry about. I can assure you that my driving skills are excellent. I’m equipped with perfect vision and superior reactions, and I know every street in the city. I am instantly updated with the latest traffic information so that I can avoid traffic jams and get you to your destination in the quickest and least stressful manner. Please sit back, relax and enjoy the journey.”
Derek and Shirley, feeling a little better, leaned back in their seats and closed their eyes. “And another thing,” “Rocky” added, “my line of robots represents the ultimate in computer technology. I am beautifully designed, made from only the best materials and subject to the strictest quality checks. Therefore, you are entirely safe with me. Nothing could possibly go wrong ... could possibly go wrong ... go wrong ... go wrong ...”

【点睛】依据逻辑推理猜测词义：运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式。要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文中相关的词汇并结合具体的语境，从形式和内容上把握语言之间的内在联系，理顺语言之间的逻辑关系，进而达到猜词的目的。在第1小题中，考生可以根据上文可知，Mr. Myrus总是穿着整齐，即使他与八岁的孩子讲话也不会省掉适当的陈述或语法；再结合下文可知，他只是认为无论你的强项在哪方面，你都应该做到最好。由此可知，划线词意为“严格的”。对比选项：A项“严格的”；B项“漠不关心的”；C项“批评的”；D项“仔细的”。故A选项正确。
27．B 28．D 29．A 30．C 31．A

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Siwa的农民克服地理环境上的困难，用智慧和努力在沙漠上种甜枣的故事。
27．细节理解题。根据第一段“Since ancient times, the oasis has hosted farms producing some of the most valuable dates in Egypt, and sugary dates have appeared on Egyptians, tables.(自古以来，这个绿洲就有农场生产埃及一些最有价值的椰枣，甜椰枣也出现在埃及人的餐桌上)”可知，甜枣已经存在很长时间了。故选B项。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段“However, with local people’s efforts, the Siwa oasis contains complex agricultural fields, where date trees, crops and other plants grow in harmony. That impressed me a lot during my visit to the oasis. (然而，在当地人的努力下，Siwa绿洲包含了复杂的农田，枣树、农作物和其他植物在这里和谐地生长。在我参观绿洲时，那给我留下了深刻的印象)”可知，在Siwa访问期间，当地农民的智慧和对农业的贡献给作者留下了深刻的印象。故选D项。
29．推理判断题。根据第三段“And it takes 10 years for a new date tree to mature, but once it does, the tree produces generous fruit: around 110 pounds of dates per year. Each farmer picks dates with the skilled hands. They climb the trees using nothing more than a belt. In total, Siwa grows more than 25,000 tons of dates from 280,000 trees per year.(一棵新的枣树需要10年的时间成熟，但一旦成熟，树就会结出丰硕的果实:每年大约110磅的枣子。每个农民都用熟练的手采摘枣子。他们只用一条皮带就能爬树。Siwa族每年总共种植28万棵椰枣，产量超过2.5万吨)”可知，第三段提到的数字表明，努力种植枣树是值得的。故选A项。
30．主旨大意题。根据第四段“The dates can be eaten fresh, or made dry. Every part of the date tree is significant in Siwa, from leaves made into beds and boxes to wood used to build houses. And then, of course, there’s the fruit itself.(枣子可以新鲜吃，也可以弄干吃。枣树的每一部分在锡瓦都很重要，从做成床和盒子的叶子到用来盖房子的木头。当然，还有水果本身)”可知，第四段主要是枣树不同部位的用途。故选C项。
31．从句猜测题。根据划线词后面的“And today only several major varieties remain and some have become quite rare and been at risk.(在今天，仅剩几种主要的品种被保留了下来，一些已经很稀缺了，甚至处于危险中)”可推知，划线词所在句意为“但后来这些品种中的许多都灭绝了。”由此推知，划线词perished与died out意思接近。故选A项。
32．D 33．C 34．F 35．E 36．G

【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了音乐节的历史。
32．根据空前“Perhaps the first formal and well-known festival to Rock was the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967, which brought that band to the attention of American audiences.（也许最早的著名摇滚音乐节就是1976年的Monterey流行音乐节。）”和空后“It started in 1968 as an event with about 10,000 people.（它始于1968年，有大约1000人参加。）”可知，空前提出了最早的摇滚音乐节，空后的it指代本空提出的另一个音乐节，故D项“另一个早期的摇滚音乐节就是Isle of Wight节”符合，故选D项。
33．根据空前“The Summerfest Festival was established in 1968.（Summerfest在1968年成立）”和空后“Interestingly, this festival made cities realize festivals could bring many benefits.（有趣的是，这个节日让城市意识到音乐节可以带来很多好处。）”可知，空前提到了Summerfest的成立，根据空后“Interestingly”推断这个音乐节有与众不同之处，故C项“然而它不仅专注于音乐，还专注于其他事件。”符合，且C项中的it指代空前的The Summerfest Festival，故选C项。
34．根据空后“Abled as “three days of love and peace”, Woodstock featured many well-known bands and artists, making Rock music festivals known to many Americans and Europeans.（以“三天爱和宁静”为标签的Woodstock音乐节，以著名的乐队和艺术家为特色，让很多美国人和欧洲人了解了流行音乐节。）”可知，本段是介绍Woodstock音乐节的情况，故F项“让流行音乐节在全世界留下足迹的应该是1969年的Woodstock音乐节”符合，放在本段首句，作为本段的主题句，故选F项。
35．根据空后“Many genres(类型)now have their own music festivals, ranging from Classical music to Heavy Metal. Countries in every habitable continent have music festivals.（很多音乐风格都有他们自己的音乐节，从古典音乐到重金属音乐不等。）”可知，空后提到很多音乐风格都有他们自己的节日，故E项“现在，很难去想象一个夏天没有音乐节会是什么样子。”符合，故选E项。
36．根据空前“Some focus on traditional, folk music.（一些专注于传统、民间音乐。）”可知，G项是空前的顺义承接，some和others相呼应，故G项“其他的是专为年轻观众设计的，或者那些喜欢古典音乐的人。”符合，故选G项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。英国有着悠久而有趣的历史。文章介绍了影响英国历史的四个不同历史时期的统治者留下的文化。
37．考查名词。句意：在英国，无论你走到哪里，你都能看到四个不同群体的人在历史上不同时期掌权的证据。空处应填名词作宾语，evidence“证据”符合题意，抽象概念，不可数。故填evidence。
38．考查名词的数。句意：他们的一些伟大成就包括建造城镇和道路。achievement“成就”是可数名词，some of后用其复数形式。故填achievements。
39．考查定语从句。句意：接下来，盎格鲁-撒克逊人在五世纪到来，他们引入了英语的起源。空处引导非限制性定语从句，指人的先行词the Anglo-Saxons在从句中作主语，应用关系代词who引导。故填who。
40．考查副词。句意：最后一群诺曼人是法国人，所以很多法语单词慢慢地进入了英语，他们在英国各地修建了城堡。修饰动词entered应用副词。故填slowly。

44．考查冠词。句意：因为它是一个古老的港口城市，其历史可以追溯到罗马时代。city“城市”是可数名词，此处是泛指，应用不定冠词修饰，又因ancient的发音是元音音素开头，应用an修饰。故填an。

When we visit you, we’ll take the notes we have taken in class during your absence. What books would you like us to take to you? Any other special needs? Please tell me in advance.
Looking forward to seeing you and your recovery.

48．One possible version:
Derek and Shirley looked at each other with wild panic in their eyes. The taxi was moving faster and faster, and “Rocky” seemed to be malfunctioning. “Slow down!” Derek shouted, but “Rocky” did not respond. The robot drove even faster than before and narrowly missed a car. Terrified, Derek grabbed his phone. With trembling fingers, he called the taxi company. “Hello?” Derek shouted into the phone, “Our robot driver is having a breakdown and he’s completely out of control. We need help quickly!”
“Don’t worry, sir,” came the calm reply on the phone, “And your taxi is also a driverless car.” The reply continued , “We have the authority to disable the robot driver. Let me switch your taxi to the driverless mode and get you to your destination safely.” The taxi immediately slowed down and continued as if nothing had happened, although its driver could be heard mumbling to himself, “... go wrong ... go wrong ...” . When they finally arrived at their hotel, Derek and Shirley quickly got out of the taxi, relieved and grateful to be alive. As they watched the taxi move away, they agreed that for the rest of the holiday, they would walk everywhere!
