Enjoying a swim at their local beach was once a daily pleasure for Melati Wijsen and her sister, Isabel. But in 2013, when Melati was 12, and Isabel just ten, the sisters started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters near their home on the Indonesian island of Bali. More often than not, plastic bags would swirl (打旋) around them as they swam.
Melati didn’t think much about it until later in 2013, when her teacher gave a lesson on world heroes like South Africa’s Nelson Mandela and England’s Princess Diana, who had made positive change. That day, Melati walked home in silence alongside Isabel, thinking about the world heroes. If they could do it, we could do it too, she thought.
Soon, they gathered a team of 15 and named their group Bye Bye Plastic Bags (BBPB). Its mission was simple: stop people in Bali from using plastic bags. To convince the local government to ban plastic bags, the group organised an online petition (请愿) to collect one million signatures to ban plastic bags in Bali. Within 24 hours of launching, more than 6000 people from around the world had signed up. Although it was far from the challenging target, Melati and Isabel did what they could.
The girls’ passion has resulted in big changes. In 2017, they organised Bali’s first beach clean up, and now is an annual event. In addition, they has successfully staged a fashion show featuring clothes made from recycled garbage and campaigned to get villages to do away with plastic bags. In 2018, BBPB convinced the Balinese government to ban single-use plastic bags, and the ban took effect in July 2019.
Today, BBPB is a global youth movement and has more than 50 teams in 29 countries. “We didn’t start with any clear plan,” Melati admits. “We didn’t know how we were going to ban the plastic bags but we knew that we wanted to and had the passion to figure it out.”
4. What motivated Melati to form the group “BBPB”?
A. The suggestion of her teacher. B. The strong wish to make change.
C. The examples set by world heroes. D. The plastic bags at their local beach.
5. What was the girls’ challenging target?
A. The amount of signatures. B. The recognition of people.
C The launch of the petition. D. The establishment of their group.
6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The first clean-up event. B. The ban on plastic bags.
C. The girls’ achievements. D. The features of the fashion show.
7. Which of the following best describes the girls?
A. Brave and generous B. Considerate and confident.
C. Intelligent and kind-hearted. D. Passionate and Determined.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了受世界英雄事迹的激励，梅拉蒂·威森和妹妹伊莎贝尔俩人为了保护环境而创建BBPB，这个只有15人的小团队发展到如今的全球性的青年运动的发展历程，以及取得的成就。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Melati didn’t think much about it until later in 2013, when her teacher gave a lesson on world heroes like South Africa’s Nelson Mandela and England’s Princess Diana, who had made positive change. That day, Melati walked home in silence alongside Isabel, thinking about the world heroes. If they could do it, we could do it too, she thought. (直到2013年晚些时候，梅拉蒂的老师给她上了一堂关于世界英雄的课，比如南非的纳尔逊·曼德拉和英国的戴安娜王妃，他们做出了积极的改变。那天，梅拉蒂默默地和伊莎贝尔一起走回家，想着世界上的英雄们。如果他们能做到，我们也能做到，她想。)”，以及第三段第一句“Soon, they gathered a team of 15 and named their group Bye Bye Plastic Bags (BBPB). (很快，他们聚集了一个15人的团队，并将他们的团体命名为‘再见，塑料袋’)”可知，老师在课上讲述的世界英雄们的事迹，为梅拉蒂树立了榜样，她也想通过自己的行动来积极地改变世界，最终促使Melati组建“BBPB”团队。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“To convince the local government to ban plastic bags, the group organised an online petition (请愿) to collect one million signatures to ban plastic bags in Bali. Within 24 hours of launching, more than 6000 people from around the world had signed up. Although it was far from the challenging target, Melati and Isabel did what they could. (为了说服当地政府禁止使用塑料袋，该组织组织了一次在线请愿活动，要收集100万个签名，要求在巴厘岛禁止使用塑料袋。在发布后的24小时内，来自世界各地的6000多人注册了该网站。尽管这离那个具有挑战性的目标很远，梅拉蒂和伊莎贝尔还是尽了自己的努力。)”可知，女孩们的挑战目标是收集100万个签名。故选A项。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“The girls’ passion has resulted in big changes. In 2017, they organised Bali’s first beach clean up, and now is an annual event. In addition, they has successfully staged a fashion show featuring clothes made from recycled garbage and campaigned to get villages to do away with plastic bags. In 2018, BBPB convinced the Balinese government to ban single-use plastic bags, and the ban took effect in July 2019. (女孩们的热情带来了巨大的变化。2017年，他们组织了巴厘岛的第一次海滩清理，现在是一年一度的活动。此外，他们还成功地举办了一场时装秀，展示了用回收垃圾制成的衣服，并发起了一项运动，让村庄不再使用塑料袋。2018年，BBPB说服巴厘政府禁止使用一次性塑料袋，该禁令于2019年7月生效。)”可知，第一句为本段主旨句，女孩们的不懈努力给巴厘岛带来了变化，故本段主要讲述女孩们的成就。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Soon, they gathered a team of 15 and named their group Bye Bye Plastic Bags (BBPB). (很快，他们聚集了一个15人的团队，并将他们的团体命名为‘再见，塑料袋’)”，以及最后一段“Today, BBPB is a global youth movement and has more than 50 teams in 29 countries. ‘We didn’t start with any clear plan,” Melati admits. “We didn’t know how we were going to ban the plastic bags but we knew that we wanted to and had the passion to figure it out.’ (今天，BBPB是一个全球性的青年运动，在29个国家拥有50多个团队。‘我们一开始没有任何明确的计划，’梅拉蒂承认。‘我们不知道如何禁止塑料袋，但我们知道我们想要这样做，也有激情去解决这个问题。’)”可知，从一个只有15人的小团队发展到如今的全球性的青年运动，女孩们对环保运动很有激情，态度也很坚定。故选D项。
C
Stroke (中风) is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. You may be familiar with some of the most common lifestyle and health factors that could affect your stroke risk. However, there is another overlooked factor—altitude.
How can living at high altitudes affect your chance of suffering a stroke? This question is at the heart of a new study in journal Frontiers in Physiology. The study examined more than 100,000 stroke hospitalisations and deaths from between 2001 and 2017 in Ecuador. The researchers assessed levels of stroke hospitalisation and death among people living at four different elevation ranges: low altitude (under 1,500 metres), moderate altitude (1,500-2,500 metres), high altitude (2,500-3,500 metres) and very high altitude (3,500-5,500 metres).
The results showed that people who lived at higher altitudes (above 2,500 meters) tended to experience stroke at a later age compared with those at lower altitudes. They were also less likely to be hospitalized or die because of stroke. However, this protective effect was the greatest between 2,000 and 3,500 meters and tailed off a little above 3,500 meters.
So, why might living at high altitudes protect against stroke? It may be that people who live at high altitude have adapted to the low oxygen conditions, and more readily grow new blood vessels (血管) to help overcome stroke-related damage. They may also have a more developed network of vessels in their brains that helps them to make the most of the oxygen they take in.
More research is needed to identify the mechanisms behind this phenomenon, but the results may be some comfort to those who live on top of the world.
8. How did the researchers carry out their study?
A. By analyzing specific cases. B. By conducting a questionnaire.
C. By studying the previous findings. D. By consulting data from the database.
9. What does the underlined phrase “tailed off” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Became more. B. Became less.
C. Became better. D. Became higher.
10. What may be the reason for people living higher to have a lower risk of stroke?
A. A small vessel network. B. Special brain structures.
C. Narrowed blood vessels. D. Adaptation to the environment.
11. Where is this passage most probably taken from?
A. A science fiction. B. A science report.
C. A geography textbook. D. A doctor’s notebook.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了《生理学前沿》杂志上的一项关于“海拔和中风之间关系”的新研究的结果。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This question is at the heart of a new study in journal Frontiers in Physiology. The study examined more than 100,000 stroke hospitalisations and deaths from between 2001 and 2017 in Ecuador. The researchers assessed levels of stroke hospitalisation and death among people living at four different elevation ranges: low altitude (under 1,500 metres), moderate altitude (1,500—2,500 metres), high altitude (2,500—3,500 metres) and very high altitude (3,500—5,500 metres). (这个问题是《生理学前沿》杂志上一项新研究的核心。该研究调查了厄瓜多尔2001年至2017年期间10万多例中风住院和死亡病例。研究人员评估了生活在四个不同海拔范围的人的中风住院和死亡水平：低海拔（低于1500米）、中等海拔（1500 — 2500米）、高海拔（2500—3500米）和高海拔（3500—5500米）”可知，研究者们通过研究2001年至2017年期间生活在厄瓜多尔四个不同海拔范围的人的中风住院和死亡水平共计10万多例，即通过具体案例分析进行的研究。故选A项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“The results showed that people who lived at higher altitudes (above 2,500 meters) tended to experience stroke at a later age compared with those at lower altitudes. They were also less likely to be hospitalized or die because of stroke. However, this protective effect was the greatest between 2,000 and 3,500 meters and tailed off a little above 3,500 meters. (研究结果表明，与生活在低海拔地区的人相比，生活在高海拔地区(2500米以上)的人患中风的年龄更晚。他们也不太可能因中风而住院或死亡。然而，这种保护作用在2000到3500米之间是最大的，在3500米以上一点tailed off 。)”可知，海拔与中风之间的关系，起到保护作用最好的海拔为2500米到3500米之间，相比较，海拔3500以上的保护作用稍微弱一点，tailed off与Became less意思相近，故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“So, why might living at high altitudes protect against stroke? It may be that people who live at high altitude have adapted to the low oxygen conditions, and more readily grow new blood vessels (血管) to help overcome stroke-related damage. They may also have a more developed network of vessels in their brains that helps them to make the most of the oxygen they take in. (那么，为什么生活在高海拔地区可以预防中风呢？这可能是因为生活在高海拔地区的人已经适应了低氧环境，更容易长出新的血管来帮助克服与中风相关的损伤。他们的大脑中也可能有一个更发达的血管网络，帮助他们充分利用吸收的氧气。)”可知，住在高海拔地区的人的身体，包括血管、大脑，都已经适应了低氧环境，故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“How can living at high altitudes affect your chance of suffering a stroke? This question is at the heart of a new study in journal Frontiers in Physiology. (生活在高海拔地区会如何影响你患中风的几率？这个问题是《生理学前沿》杂志上一项新研究的核心。)”可知，文章介绍了《生理学前沿》杂志上一项关于“海拔和中风之间关系”的新研究的结果，最有可能取自科学报告，故选B项。

How AI will transform education is very important to schools such as mine, teachers such as me, and hardworking care-givers such as the parents in my community. Could AI get our children to grasp new concepts and skills? Might AI be better equipped to help them exploit their own intelligence? After a few days watching my children use artificial intelligence-based learning tools, I can tell you the short answer is NO.
Human intelligence is different from the computer’s. For one, human intelligence can not be measured. The brain is plastic, always developing and growing as we learn from our environments. In addition, human intelligence relies on human interaction. Exercising our intelligence is something we do naturally as we connect with others, consider the world around us and seek to improve our relationship to that world.
In education, there has been a movement toward social-emotional and problem-based learning. So educators attempt to motivate interest in subjects and skills by turning learning moments into communal (共有的) problem-solving events. When we combine analytical learning with social- emotional learning, students become mastered in the material we want them to know and get more excited about the learning process.
Using AI looks very different from this. AI learning often involves an individual working alone with a computer program. It can crowd source information to help students find facts about their environment, solve a problem and come up with a creative way forward. But AI doesn’t force students to think through or keep anything. And simply being fed facts and information is not the same as “learning”.
It is fascinating to imagine that AI might cure what annoys us. Many parents don’t have the resources-in time, money or energy—to teach their kids at home. If AI could fill the gaps, how great, right? Yet the nature of AI “teaching” as it currently exists means that students merely level up without learning. When it comes to developing intelligence, nothing can beat what we humans have been doing, face to face, for centuries.
12. What do we know about human intelligence according to paragraph 2?
A. It is measured easily B. It is of great significance
C. It is related to education D. It is changeable and interactive
13. What can be inferred about AI learning from paragraph 4?
A. It is widely used at school.
B. It makes no difference to education.
C. It helps develop students’ intelligence
D. It does little help with students’ true learning.
14. What is the author’s attitude to AI learning?
A. Unclear B. Neutral C. Disapproving D. Favorable
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Could AI Really Teach Students
B. Should students Use AI Frequently
C. How Students Use AI in Their Study
D. How Teachers Interact with Students
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为议论文。通过观察孩子们使用基于人工智能的学习工具几天后，作者认为利用人工智能的学习，不是真正的学习模式，不利于学生开发智力，掌握新的概念和技能。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“For one, human intelligence can not be measured. The brain is plastic, always developing and growing as we learn from our environments. In addition, human intelligence relies on human interaction. (首先，人类的智力是无法测量的。大脑是可塑的，总是随着我们从环境中学习而发展和成长。此外，人类的智能依赖于人类的互动。)”可知，人类的智能因大脑的发展成长而一直在改变，同时也存在互动性。故选D项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“AI learning often involves an individual working alone with a computer program. It can crowd source information to help students find facts about their environment, solve a problem and come up with a creative way forward. But AI doesn’t force students to think through or keep anything. And simply being fed facts and information is not the same as ‘learning’. (人工智能学习通常需要一个人单独使用计算机程序。它可以集中资源信息，帮助学生找到有关环境的事实，解决问题，并提出创造性的前进道路。但人工智能不会强迫学生思考或保留任何东西。简单地接受事实和信息与‘学习’是不一样的。)”可知，人工智能学习的过程中，学生只是简单的接受事实和信息，没有思考或保留任何东西，并不是真正意义上的学习，所以对于学生的学习没什么帮助。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“After a few days watching my children use artificial intelligence-based learning tools, I can tell you the short answer is NO. (在观察了我的孩子们使用基于人工智能的学习工具几天后，我可以告诉你简短的答案是否定的。)”，以及最后一段“Many parents don’t have the resources—in time, money or energy—to teach their kids at home. If AI could fill the gaps, how great, right? Yet the nature of AI ‘teaching’ as it currently exists means that students merely level up without learning. When it comes to developing intelligence, nothing can beat what we humans have been doing, face to face, for centuries. (许多父母没有足够的资源，无论是时间、金钱还是精力，在家教育孩子。如果人工智能能填补这些空白，那该有多好，对吧？然而，目前存在的人工智能‘教学’的本质意味着，学生只是在没有学习的情况下升级。说到发展智力，没有什么能比得上几个世纪以来我们人类面对面所做的事情。)”可知，作者认为发展只能还得靠人类面对面的教学，许多父母因没有足够的资源，无论是时间、金钱还是精力，在家教育孩子，而选择人工智能教孩子，其实人工智能并没有填补这些空白，故作者对人工智能是不赞同的。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“How AI will transform education is very important to schools such as mine, teachers such as me, and hardworking care-givers such as the parents in my community. Could AI get our children to grasp new concepts and skills? Might AI be better equipped to help them exploit their own intelligence? After a few days watching my children use artificial intelligence-based learning tools, I can tell you the short answer is NO. (人工智能将如何改变教育，对于像我这样的学校、像我这样的老师，以及像我所在社区的父母这样勤奋的照顾者来说，都是非常重要的。人工智能能让我们的孩子掌握新的概念和技能吗？人工智能是否能更好地帮助人类开发自己的智力？在观察了我的孩子们使用基于人工智能的学习工具几天后，我可以告诉你简短的答案是否定的。)”可知，作者列出多个问题，引出本文主题：人工智能能否教学生，Could AI Really Teach Students，适合作标题，故选A项。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
What do you do with old stuff? That top you bought for a party three years ago, for example You wore it once and it’s been hanging in your wardrobe (衣柜) ever since. You could throw it away, but that seems wasteful-after all it’s still perfectly usable. So, what to do? ____16____
The first charity shops appeared in Britain in the 19th Century. The Salvation Army, a UK charity, was one of the first to run a second-hand clothing shop to provide the poor and needy with affordable clothes. ____17____ It also raised money for the war effort during World War Two.
These days, charity shops are a common sight with around 11,200 shops across the UK, according to the Charity Retail Association. During business hours any member of the public can donate their unwanted items to a charity shop. ____18____ These items are checked and if found still serviceable, priced up to be sold at a heavily discounted price.
For many this is a win-win situation. ____19____ To the consumer, it provides the opportunity to buy, often extremely cheaply, items and clothes. To the donator, it may help to ease consumer guilt “You can make a pretty good case, because what you are doing is going towards a charitable cause and you are saving stuff from landfill,” Clare Press, fashion journalist and sustainable style advocate, tells the Guardian.
____20____ On more than one occasion a buyer has purchased something very cheaply, only to later discover its true value. It sold at auction (拍卖会) for £4,200. So next time you need to rid yourself of something, spare a thought for the charity shop-after all, charity begins at home!
A. Most charity shops will take anything.
B. Here are some tips that you can follow.
C. It’s recommended to donate new items.
D. In the UK, we might take it to a charity shop.
E. There are sometimes hidden treasures for the buyers, too.
F. To the charity, it means they can pursue their charitable aim.
G. This was followed by charities such as the British Red Cross.
【答案】16. D 17. G 18. A 19. F 20. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了英国的慈善商店的历史，发展以及其好处。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
Eight-year-old Lily never played with dolls or ordered pizza on Saturday nights like her friends. Instead, after school, she sat by her mother, Stella, and helped her knit sweaters and caps because that was how they made a living.
When Lily was five, her father, Adam, died of cancer. Stella was an orphan, and Adam’s family refused to help them, so Stella and Lily were on their own. “God rewards those who are kind and brave. We’ll be alright, honey,” Stella told Lily every night before going to bed.
After Adam’s death, Stella struggled to make a living and lived in a tent in a parking lot with Lily. Their previous landlord had increased the rent, and Stella couldn’t afford it. In fact, she hadn’t been able to pay the rent for three months before the landlord eventually kicked them out.
One day, Lily was walking home from school when she felt somebody was following her. She got scared and was about to run away when she heard a sad “woof” behind her. Lily turned around to see a crying sick dog, muddy and completely wet in dirty water, looking around anxiously. He was looking at her with sad eyes.
“Are—are you hungry?” Lily asked him, and he let out a slight woof as if he understood what she said. Lily sat down and began petting him. “Listen, dog, you look sick, and mommy and I don’t have enough money. We can’t take you to a vet. I am sorry I can’t help you!”
But when the dog began crying in her lap, Lily’s heart melted. “Don’t be sad, silly! Mommy says we should be brave. OK, let’s get you home,” she said, “But I don’t think mommy will let you stay there.” Lily brought the dog to the tent, although she and Stella couldn’t afford another mouth to feed.
In the beginning Stella was against keeping him. A month later, she couldn’t imagine her life without him. She named him Sam, and he followed them everywhere they went and never left his place without permission. Moreover, he kept Stella company when Lily would be in school.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

But one morning, Lily and Stella found Sam was nowhere to be seen.

The next day, Sam came back, followed by a man.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version
But one morning, Lily and Stella found Sam was nowhere to be seen. “Sam! Come and have breakfast!” Stella called out, looking around, only to be disappointed. Lily looked behind the tent for him, where Sam occasionally hid, but he wasn’t there either. “Mommy, maybe he ran to the park! I’ll go and check it out!” Lily said. She checked the park anxiously, but without luck again. She was sobbing on her way back to the tent. “Did someone take Sam away from us? Did someone steal him?” She couldn’t stop crying.
The next day, Sam came back, followed by a man. On seeing them, Sam dashed to them with his tail wagging. Lily cried out her excitement. Never had they thought that they would be blessed with another chance to catch another glimpse of him. The man smiled, “I’m his owner and come here to thank you for looking after him.” “Your dog?” Lily asked sadly, “You can keep Sam if he is yours.” Lily hugged Sam for one last time and waved goodbye to him. They knew Sam would leave them again, but their bond would be in their hearts for ever.
