A
Best Places to Visit in the UK
The United Kingdom has long been a favorite European tourist destination for many because of its beautiful countryside, historic cities, top museums and outstanding theaters. Here are some of the best places to visit in the UK.
Cambridge
Cambridge is a charming English city located on the River Cam just north of London. As the home to one of the world’s top universities, the Universities of Cambridge, it has all of the cultural and entertainment options you might expect from a college town.
Chester
Located on the River Dee in Cheshire, England, Chester is more than 2, 00 years old, which means there is plenty of history, culture and architecture on hand lasting several centuries. The Roman and medieval（中世纪）walls around the city are one of Chester’s biggest tourist attractions.
Stonehenge
One of the most famous sites in the world, Stonehenge consists of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones in southwest England. It is also home to some of the most important Neolithic and Bronze Age structures in the UK. It was not until 1600 BC that Stonehenge came to be completed.
Lake District
Located in northwest England, the Lake District is the second largest National Park in the UK. The main attractions are the lakes, mountains and hills carved by glacial erosion（冰川侵蚀）and providing dramatic and inspiring scenery. It is England’s famous destination for hiking and climbing.
21. Which destination will you choose if you are interested in a university？
A. Stonehenge. B. Lake District.
C. Cambridge. D. Chester.
22. Where should you go if you want to see the Stonehenge？
A. A college town. B. Southwest England.
C. Northwest England. D. A National Park in the UK.
23. Which of the following is true according to the passage？
A. Lake District is well-known as a destination for hiking and climbing.
B. Chester is a modern city with a short history.
C. The Lake District is the largest National Park in the UK.

You may not know a lot of people when you start senior high school. Maybe your friends from junior high school are going to a different senior high school. Even if you know other freshmen（一年级学生）, you still feel anxious that you don’t know any upperclassmen. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces？
Most senior high schools hold the freshman orientation（迎新会）before school actually starts.
It is helpful because you not only learn your way around the building but also get to meet some of your teachers and fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.
When you talk to people at orientation, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect. Talking about a common concern（关注）with your classmates can help you develop friendships.
The work in senior high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. It builds on what you learned in junior high school, giving you a more advanced（高深的）knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it’s a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.
Senior high school also has more after-school activities than junior high school, such as clubs, music and theater groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.
Junior high school taught you the basics of time management and social skills while providing you with a little extra support and guidance. Senior high school gives you the chance to learn how to be more independent and responsible.
24. How do the freshmen usually feel on their first day of senior high school?
A. Proud. B. Curious. C. Excited. D. Nervous.
25. What are freshmen probably worried about?
A. The ability to make friends. B. The learning task.
C. The freshman orientation. D. The relationship with teachers.
26. What do after-school activities mainly help students to do?
A. Develop their interests. B. Develop friendships.
C. Build up their strength. D. Improve their learning ability.
27. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. What you’ll learn in senior high school.
B. What you learned in junior high school.
C. The difference between junior high school and senior high school.
D. The importance of being more independent and responsible.

Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation, it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way.
28. The author uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to ______.
A. explain how the Silk Road was founded
B. present travel as an amazing experience
C. show how the way people travel has changed
D. describe important cultural exchanges in history
29. By saying “the best travel is when it’s for the first time”, the author means ______.
A. one’s first trip is usually the most challenging
B. no other trip is better than one’s first trip
C. there is always much to learn on one’s first trip
D. people usually make better preparations for their first trip
30. The underlined word “recreation” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.
A. fun B. risk C. learning D. knowledge
31. According to the last two paragraphs, the author believes that ______.
A. traveling should be included in formal education
B. traveling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C. foreign journeys can enrich people’s knowledge of the world
D. foreign ways of life are better than our own way of life at home.
D
Even small amounts of physical activity, like quick walking, may greatly lower the risk of depression, according to a new data analysis（分析）.
Recommended levels of exercise in the United States, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), include aerobic（有氧的）activity at proper levels for 2.5 hours a week, along with a workout of all major muscle（肌肉）groups twice a week. Or, a person can choose a high-level aerobic exercise, such as running, for 1. 25 hours each week, along with the same amount of strength training.
Middle-to-high-level exercise is good for us, according to the CDC. It improves sleep, lowers blood pressure, protects against heart disease and diabetes, reduces stress, improves mood, and fights anxiety and depression. But in today’s busy world, many people find it difficult to fit in a jog or a visit to the gym. Add depression to the mix, and the motivation for exercise drops even further, experts say.
The analysis, published Wednesday in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, looked at 15 studies involving over 190, 000 people to determine how much exercise was needed to reduce depression.
Adults who did activities equal to 1. 25 hours of quick walking per week had an 18% lower risk of depression compared with those who did not exercise, the study said. Moving up to an “activity amount equal to 2.5 hours of quick walking per week was associated with 25% lower risk of depression,” the study authors said.
The benefits were strongest when a person changed from being a couch potato to adding movement to the day, the study said. However, exercising over the recommended levels did not provide any additional benefits.
“Our findings therefore have important new implications for health doctors making lifestyle recommendations, especially to inactive individuals who may perceive the current recommended target of exercise as unrealistic,” the authors wrote.
A study in 2018 found similar results: People who exercised had about 43% fewer days of poor mental health. “Even just walking three times a week seems to give people better mental health than not exercising at all,” said study author Adam Chekroud, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Yale University.
32. Why does the writer use the figures in Paragraph 2?
A. To provide different ways of exercise.
B. To illustrate the benefits of doing exercise.
C. To recommend the proper levels of exercise.
D. To identify which exercise is better for health.
33. How do you understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. Running may possibly add to depression.
B. Depressed people are less willing to exercise.
C. People tend to exercise more when depressed.
D. Working out regularly helps increase motivation.
34. What does the analysis published in JAMA Psychiatry suggest?
A. Over 190, 000 people suffer from poor mental health.
B. 2. 5 hours of quick walking per week is a must for adults.
C. A couch potato benefits much when taking proper exercise.
D. The recommended levels by CDC go for people of all ages.
35. Which of the following agrees with Adam Chekroud’s idea about exercise?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Rome wasn’t built in a day.
C. Half a loaf is better than no bread. D. Where there is a will, there is a way.

How to improve your homework
Holly King-Mand is a famous English teacher from the UK, having had thousands of young people join her online lessons. 36
Record instructions in a clear way.
It’s very important to clearly write down what you need to do as for your homework. Remember the tips the teacher gives you in case that you have forgotten these by the time you get around to doing your homework.
Ask for help.
If you’re not clear about what the instructions are, don’t be afraid to ask your teacher for sure. 37 Most schools run homework clubs, and these are great places to get work done with teachers on hand to answer your questions.
38
Doing your homework the same day (where possible) is a great habit to get into, but if it’s not possible then create a timetable. Being organized means you will not rush your work and will avoid any last-minute mess.
Check your work and ask for feedback.
Checking homework gives you a chance to correct any mistakes. Read over it slowly and check your spelling. 39 I recommend reading the instructions one last time to make sure you’ve completed everything that was set.
To be really successful at homework, you511 need to know how to improve, even if your teacher is pleased with what you’ve handed in. 40 Your teacher will be impressed by your attitude. And you’ll feel more confident about starting your next task. Win-win!
A. They will want to help you succeed.
B. You could even ask an adult to check it.
C. Keep worksheets or prepare a notebook.
D. Do it the same day or create a timetable.

It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route（路线）through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not, and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration（懊恼）. I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run long after the other children, he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
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.
We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me.

With the aim of broadening students’ horizons and keeping them more exposed to the present-day society, our school invited some experts to give a series of lectures concerning career planning at the lecture hall at 5 pm on April 10.
The lectures were mainly about the introductions of some professions. All the speakers, who were well-prepared and of humorous style, gave vivid and informative presentations to us. This helped further clarify the puzzles we had about our future careers. Many students had a very positive feedback, thinking that these lectures unfolded many career possibilities for them. Besides, some students even suggested that field trips to companies should be organized so that they can have a clearer picture of what many different careers really look like.

We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me. I said gently and quietly, “No one can change your mind, except yourself. If you desire to challenge yourself, there is nothing to do with others’ thoughts. ” He sat still with a deep breath. “You have a full preparation before this event, which is the most important reason why you show up here”, I added with a sincere tone. Hearing my words, David turned to me with tears spilling out of his eyes and expressed he had made a firm determination to finish the cross-country run. His coach heard what David said and gave me a look—the kind that was more determined than anyone else.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. The race started. It seemed that the runway was extremely long for young children, not to mention a child with a brain disease. David insisted on running as if he had forgotten all his weaknesses, though he was tripped over within the a few kilometers. It didn’t take long before he picked himself up again and continued his mission. Classmates all appeared on the racing track, cheering for him. “Come on! You can make it! We are proud of you!” they shouted enthusiastically. To everyone’s joy, he reached the final line and ranked the 20th. It was no more important whether he won the first place or not. It was his brave heart and strong faith that could make something unusual happen finally.

It was a sunny morning. A pretty, well-dressed young lady stopped a taxi in a big square, and said to the driver, “Can you see that young man at the other side of the square?”“Yes, “said the taxi driver. The young man was standing outside a restaurant and looking impatiently at his watch every few seconds.
“Take me over there.” said the young lady as she got into the taxi.
There were a lot of cars and buses and trucks in the square, so the taxi driver asked, “Why don’t you walk there? It will be much faster. Are you afraid to cross the street?"
“Oh, no!” said the young lady. “But I said that I would meet that young man for lunch at twelve o’clock, and it is now a quarter to one. If I arrive in a taxi, it will at least seem as if I have tried not to be too late. ”

(旅行是一个人所能拥有的最令人兴奋的经历之一。想象一下，当意大利旅行家马可波罗来到中国的土地上，看到一种与以往迥然不同的生活方式时，他会作何感想)”以及第二段中“And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia?(当张骞游历中亚和西亚回到中国时，听到他的讲述该是多么美妙啊？)”可推知，举的这两个例子是为了表明旅游是令人惊讶的经历。故选B项。

But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view. (他们也许知道旅行前会发生什么。这就是为什么最好的旅行是第一次。想象一下，一个人一直想去美国旅行。当然，他们可能已经在电视上看过一千次自由女神像、白宫和所有其他著名景点。但这一切都比不上飞机降落时望向窗外，看到真正的美国城市和街道映入眼帘时的兴奋)”由此判断出作者说“the best travel is when it’s for the first time”的意思是没有旅行能够比得上第一次旅行。故选B项。
30. 词句猜测题。根据第三段“But none of that would compare to the excitement of looking out of the window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view. (但这一切都比不上飞机降落时望向窗外，看到真正的美国城市和街道映入眼帘时的兴奋)”可知，当飞机降落时，从机舱窗户向外看，看到真正的美国的城市和街道进入视野时，那种兴奋感是无法与之相比的。由此判断出，可知划线的词是说旅游除了有教育意义外，还很有趣。故划线词的意思是“有趣”。故选A。
31. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. (随着我们对外国的了解，我们开始明白有很多不同的生活方式，我们的生活方式不一定是最好的)”可推知，作者认为出国旅行可以提高人们对世界文化的理解。故选C项。

Or, a person can choose a high-level aerobic exercise, such as running, for 1. 25 hours each week, along with the same amount of strength training. (根据美国疾病控制和预防中心的数据，美国推荐的运动水平包括每周进行2. 5小时的适当有氧运动，同时每周两次锻炼所有主要肌肉群。或者一个人可以选择高水平的有氧运动，例如每周跑步1. 25小时，同时进行同样量的力量训练)”可知，引用的数字都是在关键词“include”之后作为具体例子，例子是为了进一步解释前文内容“Recommended levels of exercise in the United States”，所以第二段引用数字是为了建议适当水平的锻炼。故答案为C。
33. 词句猜测题。由第三段“Middle-to-high-level exercise is good for us, according to the CDC. It improves sleep, lowers blood pressure, protects against heart disease and diabetes, reduces stress, improves mood, and fights anxiety and depression. But in today’s busy world, many people find it difficult to fit in a jog or a visit to the gym. (根据疾病预防控制中心的说法，中高水平的运动对我们有好处。它可以改善睡眠，降低血压，预防心脏病和糖尿病，减轻压力，改善情绪，并对抗焦虑和抑郁。但在当今繁忙的世界，许多人发现很难适应慢跑或去健身房锻炼)”可知，作者想要强调的是转折词“but”后的内容，即虽然运动有众多好处，但是人们因为繁忙或压力很难去适应一些运动。由此推知，划线部分的意思是“患有抑郁的人，更不愿意锻炼”，故答案为B。
34. 细节理解题。由第六段“The benefits were strongest when a person changed from being a couch potato to adding movement to the day, the study said. (研究表明，一个从懒散转变为每天增加运动的人能获取最大利益)”可知，懒散的人可以从锻炼中获益良多，故答案为C。
35. 推理判断题。根据尾段“Even just walking three times a week seems to give people better mental health than not exercising at all. (即使一周散步三次，似乎也比不锻炼更能改善人们的心理健康)”可知，亚当·切克罗德主张人们要去锻炼，哪怕仅仅是散步都比人们什么也不做强。由此推知，C项“半个面包总比没有面包好”符合亚当·切克罗德对锻炼的观点。故答案为C。

36. 根据上文“Holly King-Mand is a famous English teacher from the UK, having had thousands of young people join her online lessons. (Holly King-Mand是一位来自英国的著名英语老师，有成千上万的年轻人参加她的在线课程)”结合后文介绍了Holly King-Mand是如何组织家庭作业的，故F选项“在这里她展示了如何组织好家庭作业”符合语境，故选F。
37. 根据上文“If you’re not clear about what the instructions are, don’t be afraid to ask your teacher for sure. (如果你不清楚这些要求是什么，不要害怕去问你的老师)”可知，上文提到不要害怕问老师，故本句承接上文说明老师的作用：帮助你成功。故A选项“他们会想要帮助你成功”符合语境，故选A。
38. 根据本段内容“Doing your homework the same day (where possible) is a great habit to get into, but if it’s not possible then create a timetable. Being organized means you will not rush your work and will avoid any last-minute mess. (在可能的情况下，在同一天完成作业是一个很好的习惯，但如果不可能，那就制定一个时间表。做事有条理意味着你不会匆忙工作，也不会在最后一刻弄得一团糟)”可知，本段主要说明了制定时间来完成作业。故D选项“当天做，或者制定一个时间表”符合语境，故选D。
39. 根据上文“Checking homework gives you a chance to correct any mistakes. Read over it slowly and check your spelling. (检查作业给你一个改正错误的机会。慢慢读一遍，检查拼写)”可知，本段主要是关于检查作业，本句与上文并列都是在说明检查的方式。故B选项“你甚至可以找个大人检查一下”符合语境，故选B。
40. 根据上文“To be really successful at homework, you’ll need to know how to improve, even if your teacher is pleased with what you’ve handed in. (要想在家庭作业上取得真正的成功，你需要知道如何改进，即使你的老师对你交的作业很满意)”可知，本句旨在说明通过询问老师来了解如何提高自己，故G选项“问他们你如何能做得更好，如何提高自己”符合语境，故选G。
