I want to talk about a soldier. I saw him yesterday as my husband and I were enjoying a wonderful lunch in the cave-like dining room of an old hotel.

It is hard to imagine being comfortable in a room that probably seats a thousand, but the real magic of the place is its wonderful setting. Every comer is a wood and stone masterpiece, with high glass windows that look out to the huge cliffs of the valley.

A man entered with his family and took a seat. He wasn't in uniform, but he walked with the dignity of a soldier, and a slight limp(瘸). My suspicion was confirmed when he removed his hat and placed it on the table where I could see it. Embroidered(绣) on the cap were the words: “Iwo Jima Survivor”.

As they were waiting for lunch, the others talking happily, this gentleman was stating out of the window. He was content to be left out of the conversation and allowed to take in the wonderful and impressive view of the waterfall.

I watched him, and imagined how much horror he had seen in the war. What losses did he suffer, and how many friends did he lose? What he had witnessed should have given him a good reason to lose faith in the world. Yet this tired soldier was smiling at the sky, at the sun and the roaring of the waterfall. Somehow, after everything, the world was still beautiful to him.

I walked over to him and said, “Excuse me, sir. I’m sorry to interrupt, but I saw your hat, and I just wanted to say thank you for serving.”

He looked up at me, surprised, and said proudly, “You’re welcome, and thank you, too.”

I told him I would go home and tell my children about this experience that I'd met him.

24. The place where the author enjoyed lunch was ______.

A. only open to people of the upper classes

B. once visited by many famous people

D. modeled on scenes from American history

25. What do we learn from the passage?

Osaka, Japan—Defending champions China lifted the FIVB Women’s Volleyball World Cup trophy(奖品) with perfect 11 straight wins after easing past Argentina 3-0 here on Sunday. With their eleventh win at the 2019 FIVB Volleyball Women’s World Cup, China won the FIVB Women’s Volleyball World Cup.

This year, the World Cup has been played across different cities, and Team China had training sessions even on traveling days when some participating teams chose to rest up after a tiring flight. “Coach Lang focuses on details of the technique in the training sessions, and I feel our team has become more balanced.” Captain Zhu Ting said. This firm approach explains how China managed to turn the table against the United States at the World Cup. Never giving up, especially in adversity, that’s what the spirit of Chinese women’s volleyball means.

When the team struggled, Zhu was always there, doing whatever was needed to carry the team forward. That’s why she has become a national volleyball icon, just like “Iron Hammer” Lang. As for Lang, she took over the flag from her former coach Yuan Weimin, who was behind China’s rise in the beginning. From coach Yuan to coach Lang, and spiker(主攻手) Lang to spiker Zhu, the flag bearers may have changed over time, but the craving for championships and the steely desire and determination remain the same.

Volleyball is a team sport and behind the on-court team. There is always a supportive coaching team and staff. Lai was one of the members. Shouldering responsibilities as both vice director of China’s Volleyball Management Center and as assistant coach. Apart from coordinating between coaches and players, Chinese coaches and foreign coaches and sometimes within Chinese coaches, she also has to do chores. During Rio 2016, assistant coach Yuan Lingxi headed for the arena(竞技场) at 6 am every day to film the matches and would return to the Olympic Village at 2 am when he would start analyzing China’s opponents and file reports. There are many Lais and Yuans that are not known by the public, but who remain indispensable for the team to overcome difficulties and reach their peak.

28. What does the underlined word “lifted” probably mean in paragraph 1?

A. Raised. B. Won.

C. Beat. D. Expected.

29. What does the spirit of Chinese women’s volleyball mean according to paragraph 2?

A. Being a special team. B. Sticking to the end.

C. Winning every game. D. Training hard every day.

30. Why does Zhu Ting become a national volleyball icon?

A. She wins many awards in the World Cup.

B. She keeps strong desire and determination.

C. She takes lots of training after the tiring fight.

D. She does almost everything to help the team forward.

31. What does the author intend to convey in the last paragraph?

A. Hard work is vital in volleyball matches.

B. The coach has a great influence on players.

C. The staff behind the on-court team is also important.

D. Understanding opponents is necessary to win the game.

A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off(打瞌睡) —if it is milked from a cow at night.

Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety(焦虑). The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder(奶粉) made from cows milked both during the day and at night. Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.

Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.

While the effect of cow milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who have trouble falling asleep at night.

Previous(以前的) studies have also showed that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.

32. According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_______.

A. started sleep more easily B. were more anxious

C. were less active D. woke up later

33. Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?

A. It’s been tested on mice for ten years.

B. It can make people more energetic.

C. It exists in milk in great amount.

D. It’s used in sleeping drugs.

34. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Night Milk and Sleep B. Fat Sugar and Health

C. An Experiment on Mice D. Milk Drinking and Health

35. How does the author support the theme of the text?

A. By giving examples.

B. By stating arguments.

C. By explaining statistical data.

D. By providing research results.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Japan’s famously diligent workers spend more hours at the office than employees in almost any other country. Authorities have a message: Stay home   36  . Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to attend Olympic and Paralympic events in Tokyo during the 2020 Games, putting additional pressure on the city’s already notoriously crowded commuter routes. Officials also hope that promoting working from home during the Games will encourage a more easy-going approach in a country known for its cases of karoshi, or death from overwork.

On July 22, one year before the Games, Tokyo rolled out a month-long “Telework Days” campaign, with government offices and private businesses committing to avoiding peak commuting hours.   37  . The government has been urging employers to be more flexible, hoping to help parents and others caring for elderly relatives to better balance their work and home responsibilities. Officials hope the campaign will show firms that employees can actually “work even more effectively” when they stay home.

  38  . Such as concerns over the security of sensitive information, the difficulty of controlling working conditions and the fact that corporate culture stresses the importance of face-to-face communication.

Experts and government officials hope that Olympic efforts to expand telework might serve as something of a legacy for the Games. “Tokyo 2020 is a chance to actively introduce telework, which can create a stress-free lifestyle,” said Azuma Taguchi, a professor of engineering at Chuo University.   39  . And he also urged to take serious measures to tackle Olympic traffic.

  40  . “This is a chance to make telework a legacy of the Games that will take root” in Japanese society, Industry Minister Hiroshige Seko said in a recent forum to promote flexible work. And some officials are hoping that a more open-minded approach to work could encourage people to take “workstations”—working remotely from far-flung locations with attractive leisure options.

A. Workstations have already appeared in Japan

B. The concept isn’t completely unfamiliar in Japan

C. The efforts have also run up against various barriers

D. Tokyo tells workers to stay home to enjoy a new lifestyle

E. The aim is to avoid traffic chaos during next year’s Olympics

F. He warned of potentially “fatal traffic jam” if action is not taken

G. Others also see the Games as a chance to break existing work habits

Dear Tom,

How are you getting on? I don’t think this a good idea to travel a lot and visit as many places possible. Last July Bell pay a visit to Europe. Europe is very beautiful, but his holiday wasn’t very nicely. He visited several country, and was in each of the countries for only three days. He visited a great many of places of interest, and was always in a hurry. When he returned from Europe, he was very tiring. So I suggest you spent your holiday in a different way. You’d better travelled with a friend to one country and visit only one city, that will do good to your body and mind.
