Football scarves, shirts and...eggshell art？A retired schoolteacher is making mascot memorabilia(吉祥物纪念品) from eggshell, skillfully crafted by hand.
Nguyen Thanh Tam, 67 years old, spends hours every day making the models. He is driven by his soccer enthusiasm shared by millions across Vietnam glued to the World Cup.
The soccer tournament kicked off in Russia a few weeks ago. Most of his tiny statues are of the tournament mascot, a wolf named Zabivaka. The wolf wears big sports glasses and is kicking a soccer ball. Tam also has plans for models of soccer heroes Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Though not widespread in Vietnam, using eggshell in art is not unheard of. Traditional fine works often feature in laid eggshell that is used to replace white paint.
Tam first developed the unique hobby around New Year in 2002. He was looking for the right material to make a statue with his 13­year­old students. He discovered that an eggshell perfectly displayed Saint Nick's round belly. He eventually married his passion(酷爱) for crafts and soccer. He started making World Cup mascots during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Now he has about 1, 000 of the small statues in his apartment. Some celebrate the 2016 Rio Olympics and the Euro 2016 football tournament in France. Others are of celebrities like Charlie Chaplin, Barack Obama and Gangnam Style's PSY. He also does birds and animals. He has his pig­related series to mark the Year of the Pig in 2019.
Tam says the biggest challenge is to find the right egg shape to fit the creation, so he has expanded beyond chicken eggs to include ostrich(鸵鸟) and quail(鹌鹑) eggs. He has also widened his egg artworks by using up all the yolks(蛋黄) and whites he used to throw away.
Tam doesn't sell the delicate dolls, preferring instead to keep them on display to impress his visitors. He has already received a nod from Vietnam's record center for the most eggshell art created, but he has a global ambition.“I hope one day my eggshell art will be recognized as a world record, ”he said with a smile.
24. What can be learned about Tam's artworks?
A. They're made of eggshell. B. They adopt white paint.
C. They sell well on the market. D. They're partly produced by machine.
25. What's the main purpose of Tam producing the art?
A. To achieve fame and fortune. B. To entertain his students.
C. To make a living. D. To satisfy his passion.
26. What's Paragraph 6 mainly about?
A. Tam's unique art style. B. Tam's highly accomplished artworks.
C. Tam's achievement in teaching. D. Tam's interest in art collection.
27. What's a great problem for Tam?
A. It's hard to make good use of ostrich eggs.
B. It's difficult to find suitable eggshells.
C. It's unbearable to throw away the yolks and whites.
D. It's too hard for his art to be recognized worldwide.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. B

【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段首句“Now he has about 1, 000 of the small statues in his apartment.(现在他的公寓里有大约1000个这样的小雕像。)”以及后面的“Some celebrate the 2016 Rio Olympics and the Euro 2016 football tournament in France. Others are of celebrities like Charlie Chaplin, Barack Obama and Gangnam Style's PSY. He also does birds and animals.( 一些人在法国庆祝2016年里约热内卢奥运会和2016年欧洲杯。还有查理·卓别林、巴拉克·奥巴马和《江南Style》中的PSY等名人。)”可知, 本段主要介绍了Tam所完成的各种精美的蛋壳艺术品。故选B。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“Tam says the biggest challenge is to find the right egg shape to fit the creation, so he has expanded beyond chicken eggs to include ostrich(鸵鸟) and quail(鹌鹑) eggs.( Tam说，最大的挑战是找到合适的鸡蛋形状来适应这一发明，所以他已经将鸡蛋的形状扩展到鸵鸟蛋和鹌鹑蛋。)”可知，Tam面临的问题是很难找到适合创作的蛋壳。故选B。
C
In the past five years, about 2.8 billion of school textbooks were sold per year, with total spending of 20 billion yuan ($3 billion), news magazine Outlook Weekly reported, citing data released recently by the National Press and Publication Administration.
If these textbooks are reused for one year, the costs saved can be used to help build around 40,000 Hope Schools in impoverished regions.
The figures show that in 2018, the number of retailed textbooks for primary and secondary schools was 2.93 billion copies, totaling 25.99 billion yuan. If all of them are reused, a total of over 20 billion yuan will be saved per year.
Zhao Dehua, in charge of a company recycling resources, said many college graduates sell the textbooks they have accumulated over the years at an average price of 1 yuan per kilogram. As these textbooks are mostly used to produce recycled paper, the cost is even higher than that of raw paper as the processing procedure of recycled paper is complicated.
At present, free textbooks related to music, art and P.E for the nine-year compulsory education have been reused, but account for less than a fraction of the total number of textbooks. Because of the supply chain obstruction, which increases the costs to match supply with demand, the lack of sound platform and service supporting system for the second-hand textbook trade, most of the textbooks used for compulsory education and higher education end up as waste.
“Every year, second-hand booksellers collect textbooks at a price of about 4,000 yuan a ton, which is more than twice the price of ordinary waste paper, but the number of people who come to collect second-hand books is still few,” Zhao Dehua said.
Besides, the incomplete policies and regulations might bring second-hand book sales platforms and sellers to legal risks.
“Establishing the system of textbook recycling can not only save resources, but also help to cultivate students’ consciousness and sense of responsibility,” said Zhu Pin, deputy head of a school of nine-year compulsory education in Jiangxi province. The school has set up a system for reusing the textbooks and the books are disinfected every week.
28. What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. College students sell textbooks in order to make profits.
B. Recycled paper is mainly used for environmental considerations.
C. The cost of recycled paper is greater than that of raw paper.
D. Certain groups of collectors tend to choose second-hand textbooks.
29. What is the problem of reusing textbooks?
A. It is blocked because of lack of funds.
B. The supply of recycled textbooks is not adequate to meet the demand.
C. The regulation of second-hand textbooks has not been carried out yet.
D. A large number of second-hand textbooks are not used properly.
30. What measures does the school take to use the second-hand textbooks?
A. The school frees recycled textbooks from bacteria regularly.
B. The school proposes regulations for wasting second-hand textbooks.
C. The school calls on students to participate in the system of textbook recycling.
D. The school requests the government’s support.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Textbooks recycled for less waste
B. Recycled textbooks used for compulsory education
C. Reusing textbooks good for environment and wallet
D. Reusing textbooks good for collection
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章谈论了重复利用教科书有利于节约资源和资金。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中一家资源回收公司的负责人Zhao Dehua所说的“As these textbooks are mostly used to produce recycled paper, the cost is even higher than that of raw paper as the processing procedure of recycled paper is complicated.”（由于这些教材主要用于再造纸的生产，再造纸的生产工艺复杂，成本甚至比生纸还要高。）可知，再造纸的成本比生纸的成本高。故选C项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“At present, free textbooks related to music, art and P.E for the nine-year compulsory education have been reused, but account for less than a fraction of the total number of textbooks. Because of the supply chain obstruction, which increases the costs to match supply with demand, the lack of sound platform and service supporting system for the second-hand textbook trade, most of the textbooks used for compulsory education and higher education end up as waste.”（ 目前，九年制义务教育免费的音乐、美术和体育课本已经被重新使用，但在课本总数中所占比例还不到一小部分。由于供应链的阻碍，需求与供给的匹配成本增加，二手教科书贸易缺乏良好的平台和服务支撑体系，大多数义务教育和高等教育使用的教科书最终成为废物。）可知，大量的二手教科书使用不当。故选D项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“The school has set up a system for reusing the textbooks and the books are disinfected every week.”（ 学校建立了一个重复使用课本的系统，每周对课本进行消毒。）可知，学校定期对课本进行灭菌来回收课本。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段“If these textbooks are reused for one year, the costs saved can be used to help build around 40,000 Hope Schools in impoverished regions.”（如果这些教科书被重复使用一年，节省下来的成本可以用来帮助贫困地区建设大约4万所希望学校。）和第三段“The figures show that in 2018, the number of retailed textbooks for primary and secondary schools was 2.93 billion copies, totaling 25.99 billion yuan. If all of them are reused, a total of over 20 billion yuan will be saved per year.”（ 据统计，2018年全国中小学教科书零售量为29.3亿册，总计259.9亿元。如果全部回收利用，每年可以节省200多亿元。）以及最后一段江西省九年制义务教育副校长Zhu Pin所说“Establishing the system of textbook recycling can not only save resources, but also help to cultivate students’ consciousness and sense of responsibility.”（建立教材回收制度不仅可以节约资源，而且有助于培养学生的责任意识和责任感。）可知，文章主题是“重复使用教科书有利于保护环境和节约资源”，所以选项C“重复使用教科书对环境和钱包都有好处”适合做文章标题。故选C项。
D
The twilight zone (朦胧地带) contains the largest and least explored fish stocks (储备) of the world’s oceans. Ranging from just below 200 metres to 1,000 metres deep, it is an interface between the well-studied sea life in the sunlit zone above and the ecosystems of the darkest territory below. It has a major role in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it for centuries or longer. The twilight zone is also known to the largest migration on Earth. Huge numbers of fishes and zooplankton (浮游动物) move hundreds of metres towards the surface each night to feed, before withdrawing back down at dawn.
Yet the zone is poorly understood — physically, biogeochemically and ecologically. Even the number of organisms that live there remains a mystery, let alone their diversity and function.
It is alarming, then, that this vast ocean domain is at risk in three ways-even before any of the potential consequences are understood. First, the world’s growing population has an increasing need for food. Second, sea-floor mining for minerals and metals could release waste into the region. And third, climate change is varying temperature, acidification and oxygen levels in ways that are likely to affect life there.
The twilight zone is hard Io study. Its organisms are difficult to sample and analyse, being thinly distributed, almost invisible and often fragile. They also live at pressures of up to 100 atmospheres, which poses problems for laboratory-based investigations.
Critics might argue that walers near coasts and above shelves are more deserving of study, given the huge environmental pressures there, as well as their importance to societies. And, of course, they need attention. Sadly, however, it is too late to avoid widespread environmental damage to these inshore regions. Instead, research efforts and local policies must aim at minimizing the worst effects.
By contrast, the twilight zone is almost left in its original condition. Moreover, the majority of it lies beyond national administration. This makes it of common interest and responsibility, and means that global agreement is necessary to manage it.
32. What can we learn about the twilight zone?
A. It has the least fish stocks.
B. It reduces atmosphere’s carbon dioxide.
C. It lies at the bottom of sea.
D. Il is located above the sunlit zone.
33. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us?
A. Where global warming leads us.
B. Why high food consumption arises.
C. How the twilight zone is threatened.
D. What impacts pollution has on ocean.
34. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. The twilight zone. B. The inshore area.
C. Its original condition. D. National administration.
35. Which statement does the author agree with?
A. International cooperation is essential.
B. Inshore regions deserve more attention.
C. Global agreement has been reached.
D. Study on the twilight zone is out of the question.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了海洋中的朦胧地带，指出了它面临的威胁性风险，呼吁国际合作。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“It has a major role in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it for centuries or longer. (它在从大气中去除二氧化碳并将其储存数百年或更久方面起着重要作用。)”可知，朦胧地带减少了大气中的二氧化碳。故选B项。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“It is alarming, then, that this vast ocean domain is at risk in three ways-even before any of the potential consequences are understood. (然而，令人担忧的是，这片广阔的海洋领域正面临着三方面的风险——甚至在任何潜在后果被理解之前。)”以及下文描述了三点风险，可知，本段主要讲述了朦胧地带是如何受到风险威胁的。故选C项。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“By contrast, the twilight zone is almost left in its original condition. Moreover, the majority of it lies beyond national administration. (相比之下，朦胧地带几乎保持了原来的状态。此外，它的大部分问题超出了国家行政管理的范围。)”又提到朦胧地带几乎保持了原来的状态以及连词Moreover进一步补充的内容可知，划线词it指的是“The twilight zone(朦胧地带)”。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This makes it of common interest and responsibility, and means that global agreement is necessary to manage it. (这使它具有共同利益和责任，并意味着有必要达成全球协议来管理它。)”可知，作者会同意“国际合作至关重要。”这种说法。故选A项。

【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。喜欢的音乐曲调可以激发积极的记忆，提升你的情绪，并创造一个放松的环境。文章介绍了一些发掘音乐的力量的方式。
36题详解】
前文“A favorite musical tune can fuel positive memories, boost your mood, and create a relaxing setting.( 一首最喜欢的音乐曲调可以激发积极的记忆，提升你的情绪，并创造一个放松的环境。)”说明音乐有很多好处，选项G中有个also，也是再说音乐的好处。且下文与选项的specific ways相照应。G项“以特定的方式使用，音乐也是一个支持你的健康的宝贵的工具”符合语境，故选G。
【37题详解】
设空处后文提到“Research in the November 2019 Psychology of Sport and Exercise found that upbeat music can make a workout seem less challenging and more enjoyable(2019年11月的运动和锻炼心理学研究发现，乐观的音乐可以让锻炼看起来不那么具有挑战性，而更令人愉快)”这里的“upbeat”与B项中的“fast beat”相对应。因此推断B项“打开一些快节奏的音乐”符合语境。故选B。
【38题详解】
设空处为段首。且设空后方有一个转折连词but，后文“But waking up to a pleasant tone instead of a sharp alarm can reduce morning sleepiness and improve efficiency”讲到要伴随愉快的音调的音乐起床，跟睡眠有关。C项中的“a sleep aid”一致，因此推断C项“音乐长期以来都作为一种音乐辅助”符合语境。故选C。
【39题详解】
设空处前面“The right choice of music also appears to be necessary.”提到正确的音乐选择是有必要的。所以设空与音乐的选择有关。F项“根据Professor Diaz- Falcon教授，人们对熟悉的音乐反应最好”与之相符。故选F。
【40题详解】
本段第一句“Many studies have shown that students who listen to slow and peaceful sounds have less anxiety.”提到很多研究表明，听慢而平和的音乐的学生表现的没有那么焦虑，下文对这种音乐的作用进行解释。E项中的“such sounds”指代的是这种声音。因此推断E项“下一次你面对一个复杂的任务时，尝试听听这样的音乐”符合语境。故选E。

96. 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。
Karie double -checked the words on her spelling test. If she got 100 percent today, she'd win her class' First-Quarter Spelling Challenge and a brand new dictionary. Plus, Ms. McCormack had promised to do a handstand if anyone got a perfect score.
Three more words to go. N-i-c-e-l-y. Q-u-i-c-k-l-y. H-o-n-e-s-t-y. Wait! She'd spelled honesty, not honestly. She hurriedly erased the t-y and wrote l-y before handing in her paper.
Ms. McCormack graded the test papers at the break. Meanwhile, Karie sat restlessly in her seat with her fingers crossed. Then, Ms. McCormack walked to the front of the room and cleared her throat. As if she were an Olympic gymnast, Ms. McCormack's feet flipped in to the air.
“Congratulations, Karie! You did it!” she announced while upside down.
The whole class burst into applause! Ms. McCormack righted herself and presented Karie with her prize. Karie grinned as she read the label on the box ：
To Karie Carter, for her perfect first-quarter score in spelling.
“Everything OK?” Mom asked as Karie burst through the front door after school. Karie didn't answer. As if by magic, she took out her spelling test paper and prize and showed them to her mother. Mom hugged her, asking her to put the test paper on the fridge so that Dad could see it when he got home.
Karie took another look at the test paper before putting it on the fridge. Her hands stopped in the mid air. She just couldn't believe her own eyes. Honestly?
YES! H-O-N-E-S-L-Y!
Mom sensed something unusual and asked why. Karie stuffed the test paper into her backpack and explained that she was just too excited. Mom brought her some tea. Yes, a “t” was exactly what she needed.
After drinking a little, Karie plodded down the hall, lost in thought. How could she tell the class she hadn't earned the prize after all? That Ms. McCormack did the handstand for nothing?

【答案】Para l:
Later Dad came in with excitement. “Where's your spelling test, Karie?” Dad asked eagerly. Karie looked away from her father. Anyhow, she reluctantly went to her room and pulled out the test paper. Dad fixed his eyes on the paper, a pleasant smile lifting the corner of his mouth. “I'm proud of you, sweetie. We need to celebrate it tonight.” Karie pretended to be smiling all the time. Meanwhile a sense of guilt rose inside her. Feeling she didn't deserve the prize, she had a sleepless night for the first time in her life.
Para 2:
The next morning, Karie went to school earlier than usual. Ms. McCormack was unlocking the classroom. “You're an early bird.” Ms. McCormack said. Karie's hands trembled. She handed her teacher the spelling paper and the dictionary. “I can't keep this. I misspelled 'honestly' and you didn't catch it.” For a moment, Ms. McCormack stood quietly reading the label on the dictionary. Then picking up her pen, she crossed out the word “perfect” and wrote “honest” before returning the dictionary to Karie. “Keep this. But for honesty.”
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Karie在拼写测试中取得了完美的成绩，结果她回到家才发现，自己“诚实”的单词拼写错了，但是老师没有发现。Karie陷入了沉思，不知道要不要告诉老师。不过最终第二天Karie还是去学校告诉了老师这个错误。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“后来，爸爸兴奋地走了进来。”可知，第一段可描写Karie告知父亲自己的成绩，以及Karie内心的感受。
②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，Karie比平时更早去了学校。”可知，第二段可描写Karie如何告知老师这个试卷上的错误的，以及老师得知真相后的做法。
2.续写线索：Karie给父亲看试卷——Karie假装开心——Karie感到内疚——Karie告诉老师这个错误——老师肯定了Karie的诚实。
