    Passage 3(2020新疆,C)  Beijing Opera is one of the traditional Chinese drama art forms and the largest Chinese opera form. Having a history of about 200 years, it is developed from many other drama forms, mostly from the local drama “Huiban”. It was especially popular in south China during the 18th century.
    Theatrical(戏剧的)art forms in many other countries do not have singing, dancing and spoken parts together in one single drama. An opera singer, for example, neither dances nor speaks on stage; there are no singing or
    dancing parts in a modern play; in a dance drama, the dancer doesn't speak or sing. Traditional Chinese drama, including Beijing Opera, is a kind of entertainment. It includes spoken parts, singing and dancing.Beijing Opera has spread to many other places. Mei Lanfang, one of the most famous performers of all, was the first to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners and made highly successful tours to foreign countries.“You will doubt and sometimes be a little bored, but you will be interested gradually. You will be strongly at- tracted to Beijing Opera, even if you know nothing about the drama background.” This is how one traveler de- scribed his first experience in watching Beijing Opera.Beijing Opera is China's national opera and it is full of Chinese cultural traditions. Welcome to China and en- joy Beijing Opera!

    4.According to the passage, which of the following statements in NOT true?A.Beijing Opera is a kind of entertainment.B.An opera singer neither dances nor speaks on stage usually.C.Only old people are interested in Beijing Opera.D.Mei Lanfang was the first one to introduce Beijing Opera to foreigners.5.The main purpose of writing the passage is to       .A.ask young people to learn Beijing OperaB.tell us something about Beijing OperaC.show why Beijing Opera is popular in EuropeD.introduce everything about foreign opera

    题组二 记叙文Passage 1(2020湖北黄冈,1)
      A girl was working as a nurse in a private hospital. One day, a patient with serious disease was brought to the hospital, but had to be transferred(转移) to another hospital at once for an operation(手术). However, the di- rector of the hospital said the patient couldn't be transferred unless he paid his bill first. The patient's family was very poor. They had no choice but to ask if they could pay the bill after the operation because the patient was close to death. But their request was refused.The nurse, who had just arrived to work, heard about the situation and made a decision. She took off her gold ring, took it to the cashier's desk(收银台) and said she would use it to pay for the patient's bill. Although the ring was the only piece of valuable gift her parents gave her, the nurse gave it away to save the patient. Thanks to her help, the patient was at once transferred to another hospital and his life was saved. Though the patient was a stranger, the nurse gave so much to him.The nurse's action caught the attention of the doctor on duty that day. The doctor saw everything in the hospital
    and he was deeply moved by the nurse. He later fell in love with the nurse and they finally got married. The pa- tient attended their wedding (婚礼) as well and returned the ring.Things like this happen every day in our life. Sometimes, giving can bring you something that you have never expected before.

    2.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的She took off her gold ring,took it to the cashier's desk and said she would use it to pay for the patient's bill.(她摘下她的金戒指,把它拿到收银台,说她将用它来支付病人的账单。)可知是护士支付了病人的账单。故答案为C。3.C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的The doctor saw everything in the hospital and he was deeply moved by the nurse. He later fell in love with the nurse and they finally got married.(医生看到医院里所发生的一切,并 且他被这名护士深深感动了,后来他爱上了这名护士,他们最后结婚了。)可知,是医生与护士最终结婚 了。故答案为C。4.A 推理判断题。根据女孩帮助病人可知,她是一个善良并且乐于助人的人,故答案为A。长难句They had no choice but to ask if they could pay the bill after the operation because the patient was close to death.他们别无选择,只好问他们能否在手术后支付账单,因为病人就要死了。本句话中if表示“是否”,引导宾语从句,because引导原因状语从句。词汇积累 private adj.私人的;request n.请求,要求;situation n.情形,情况;valuable adj.有价值的

    At last, in 1973, they grew a new kind of hybrid rice. This rice is strong. Farmers can grow it in many different kinds of farmland and also in bad weather. It can also fight disease. Its output was much greater than common kinds of rice. With the new kind, about 70,000,000 people could have food every year!Yuan solved the food problem in China. But he is still working on rice.

    题组四 议论文Passage 1(2020北京,D)  Today we can do everything with apps:pay bills, order food and shop for anything. Mobile technology means we can hold the world in our hands. However, when it comes to technology and health care, opportuni- ties and challenges come together.
    Let's start with the ways to get health care. Telemedicine can allow a patient to use technology to see the doctor online and get a diagnosis (诊断) and instructions without leaving home.
    In addition, there are many patient websites. These allow for different kinds of interactions about our health needs without involving the medical team. Setting a date with doctors and reading lab results are readily achieved by technology.A whole new age of medical care seems likely (可能的) to come in the future.But every coin has two sides. What might be on the other side of techno-health care?Firstly, we should think about the health care experience as a whole. A usual visit to a doctor begins with a re- ceptionist (接待员), who can see and tell how a patient is doing. This may influence the treatment effect. It's unlikely that a patient website will have such intuition.Next, sharing the details of one's life requires trust, which takes time to build.This is certainly true in health care, where some of life's best and worst moments involve doctors. The human touch should not be underval- ued and is unlikely to be there over the smartphone.
    Lastly, test results can be difficult to understand. When someone without a medical degree sees a flagged result with no explanation on the website, there's room for all kinds of stories to form in their minds—and also great worry.So how does medicine adapt (适应) to the new technology age? Very talented companies are working on it. There is medical equipment (设备) that can be used at home to send necessary signs and heart sounds through telemedicine. It seems likely that some companies will find a way to explain test results.But what it will not achieve is the warmth of human interaction and touch.Patients often need someone to listen to—and care about—their journey story,which will never be realized through a human-less technology. Tech- nology should be a tool, but depending on it totally will most certainly have unexpected effects. Let's not allow our humanity to be one of them.
    1.According to the passage, how does technology help health care?A.It encourages doctors to voice their needs on the websites.B.It offers the patient a convenient way to get a diagnosis.C.It improves relations between doctors and patients.D.It provides an opportunity to build a medical team.2.The word “intuition” in Paragraph 5 probably means       .A.an ability to understandB.an interesting experienceC.a chance to winD.a fair decision
    3.What do you know about techno-health care from the passage?A.Patient websites require trust from doctors.B.Talented companies can give medical advice.C.Flagged results may cause worry for patients.D.Medical equipment collects patients' stories.4.The writer probably agrees that       .A.technology can deal with unexpected effectsB.telemedicine can take the place of usual health careC.it is difficult for patients to adapt to the new technology ageD.techno-health care should take humanity into consideration
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨了远程医疗的优势和劣势以及未来医疗应该如何适应科技。1.B 推理判断题。由第二段中的“Telemedicine can allow a patient to use technology to see the doctor on- line and get a diagnosis and instructions without leaving home.”可知,远程医疗可以使患者在家视频会见医 生并获得诊断,这是一种很方便的方式。故选B。2.A 词义猜测题。由画线词前的such推断,前文一定有具体解释。根据前文“A usual visit to a doctor be- gins with a receptionist, who can see and tell how a patient is doing.”可知,接待员能够判断患者究竟症状如 何。而这一过程在网站上是无法实现的,故推断intuition指的是对病症的判断能力,故选A。3.C 推理判断题。根据第七段中的“When someone without a medical degree sees a flagged result with no explanation on the website, there's...—and also great worry.” 可知,当没有医学学位的患者在网上看到有标 记的诊断结果而没有对结果的具体解释时,会很担心,故C选项正确。
    4.D 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“Patients often need someone to listen to—and care about—their journey story, which will never be realized through a human-less technology.”可知,患者需要有人倾听、关 心他们,这是科技无法实现的。因此科技与医疗的结合应该把医生的仁爱考虑在内,故选D。词汇积累 tell v. 辨别;degree n.学位;take the place of代替;take...into consideration 将……考虑进去
    Passage 2(2020河北,D)  Everyone needs help sometimes. People depend on one another. That's why communities have special people ready to lend a helping hand to anyone who needs it.For example, what would we do without a community fire station? If a home catches fire, as the Jackson place did last week, it might be burned down and people get hurt...or worse. We're so lucky to have firemen to come to save people and put out the fire, safely. If the fire station hadn't come so fast, the Jacksons might have lost everything.And what about our local police who protect our families, our homes and valuable things? The police have helped so many families this past year, especially saving people and pets and protecting our houses and other things after the heavy rains.
    Think about all the other service workers we have in this community. We have people who collect waste and rubbish and keep our community sanitary. We have road workers who put up and repair traffic signs and fix holes in the streets to protect not just us, but our cars! And where would this community be without the teachers in our school and the doctors, and nurses in our community hospitals?Think again about what we eat every day, think again about what we wear every day. We cannot produce them, but we use them all the time. We get a lot from all these tireless workers who keep our community running. We need these people in the community. We depend on each other. Let's support each other and help each other. Only in this way can we make our community a better place.1.What happened to the Jacksons last week?A.Their pets were lost.B.Their car was badly burnt.C.Their house caught fire.D.Their valuable things were stolen.
    2.Who offered help to families after the heavy rains?A.Firemen.  B.Doctors. C.Road workers.  D.Local police.3.What does the underlined word “sanitary” mean?A.Clean.  B.Safe.  C.Quiet.  D.Busy.4.Which question could best help us find out the writer's purpose?A.Did the writer make us laugh?B.Did the writer want us to do something?C.Did the writer tell us about how to become a teacher?D.Did the writer teach us what to do when a fire breaks out?5.What is the best title for the passage?A.Policemen Save People's Lives B.People Depend on Each OtherC.Service Workers Do Important Jobs D.Workers Keep Community Running

But is it all fun and games?Big businessPro(professional)gaming is certainly big business. In 2017, there were more than 3,000 gaming competitions and over 10,000 professional players worldwide. A large number of people watch their competitions online, and successful gamers can get more than 1,000,000 dollars from prize money and ads. The industry is clearly thriv- ing.What it takes
    Becoming a professional is not just about being good at playing games—it also takes a lot of hard work. Some pro gamers practice for fourteen hours a day.“You need to spend much time and put all your efforts to it,” says ex-gamer George.Not all fun and gamesIt can be a difficult job as well. Stress is a big problem for gamers. Tiredness is another, and injuries(受伤)are common. Top player Hai Lam had wrist(手腕)problems after years of pro gaming. Careers(生涯)are short, and many gamers retire(退休)before they are 30 and try to find another job.However, the bad points probably won't change the dreams of many teenage gamers. And angry parents are still likely to hear the excuse,“But I'm just practicing for my future job!”

    Passage 2(2019天津,C)There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food, taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of(不管)age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,0 00 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure(血压).Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don't have much time to sleep, and they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you'll do.
    How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas, an expert(专家)in sleep. He says,“Sleep is like a credit(信用)card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don't sleep, the more hours you should sleep to ‘pay back’ the hours on your ‘sleep credit card’.”For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said,“Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish(愚蠢的)idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.”1.According to the writer, the easiest and cheapest way to improve health is to       .A.eat healthy food every dayB.take exercise as much as possibleC.get medical help whenever necessaryD.sleep eight hours or more every night
    2.What does“sleep-deprived”mean in Paragraph 2?A.Having a good sleep.  B.Excited about sleep.C.Having less sleep.  D.Interested in sleep.3.According to Dr. James Maas, what is sleep like?A.An hour.  B.A report.C.A credit card.  D.A piece of paper.4.What do the words of the famous person mean in Paragraph 5?A.Sleeping during the night is foolish.B.Sleeping during the night is helpful.C.People have no courage.D.People always do less work.
    5.What is the best title of the passage?A.The Value of SleepB.The Value of StudyC.The Ways of Eating LessD.The Ways of Making Money答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了改善健康最重要的就是睡眠,但是现在越来越多的人睡眠严 重不足。1.D 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night.可知答案为D。
    2.C 词义猜测题。根据第二段可知,现在的问题是越来越多的人睡眠不足。据世界卫生组织所说,世界上 超过一半的人可能都睡眠不足,所以由此来推断这个词的意思是“睡眠不足”,故答案为C。3.C 细节理解题。由第四段中Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Maas, an expert in sleep. He says, “Sleep is like a credit card...”可知答案为C。4.B 推理判断题。第五段提到的那个著名的人是想告诉我们晚上睡觉是很有帮助的。故答案为B。5.A 主旨大意题。整篇文章都是在讲睡眠的重要性,故答案为A。
    长难句For those who value work more than sleep,they should listen to what a famous person once said,“Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night...”对于那些重视工作甚于睡眠的人来说,他们应该听一位名人曾经说过的话,“不要以为你会因为晚上睡觉而减少工作……”本句话含有who引导的定语从句,what引导的宾语从句,because引导的原因状语从句。重点词汇 improve v.改善,提高 according to 依据,按照 not only...but also...不仅……而且……词汇积累 cause v.导致, 引起
    Passage 3(2019四川成都)AIf we laid all of the blood vessels(血管)in the human body end to end, they would reach about 100,000 km long. That's nearly two and a half times around Earth! BFor the first time, Coca-Cola has showed that it uses 3,000,000 tons of plastic bottles each year. That's the weight of 15,000 blue whales—the largest animal on Earth.
      CIf your throat tickles(发痒), pressing your ear might make it go away. That's because your throat and ears share the same group of nerves(神经). When you press your ear, the nerves in your throat can feel it.DIt takes about 7 to 8 trees to make enough O2 for one person to breathe for a year. Each person needs around 750 kg of O2 per year. A large tree might make around 100 kg of O2 per year.  ETo young children, a year might seem to last forever. But older people might say that it flies by. Why is that?
    According to the US scientists, young people's brains deal with information faster than older people. They take in more information and do more things in a day. So they feel like each day lasts longer. However, older people 's brains take in less information and see a day pass more quickly.  FAbout 200 muscles(肌肉)work together when you take a step. That's a lot of work for your muscles, since many people take about 10,000 steps a day. If you want to get some easy exercise, walking is good for you.

    5.C 推理判断题。由D篇中“Each person needs around 750 kg of O2 per year.”可知一人一年大约需要75 0千克氧气,40个人一年大约需要30,000千克氧气,故选C。由F篇可知,走一步大约需要200块肌肉工作,不管 走多少步,参与工作的肌肉是不变的,故A不符合题意。由A篇可知一个人的血管连起来就是100,000千米 长,三个人就更长了,超出了题目中的30,000,故B不符合题意。长难句That's a lot of work for your muscles,since many people take about 10,000 steps a day.由于很多人每天要走 大约一万步,那对你的肌肉来说是相当大的工作量。主句为That's a lot of work for your muscles,从句为since many people take about 10,000 steps a day,引导词 since意为“因为,由于”,引导原因状语从句。重点词汇 reach v.达到;到达  weight n.重量 breathe v.呼吸 词汇积累 deal with 处理

But the study found that searching online is one of the leading ways that people look for a second opinion. He says, “People are sort of fact-checking what they have heard from a doctor. Our studies show that people are still very likely to turn to a health doctor when they need a diagnosis(诊断)or are planning a treatment.”Forty percent of people are actually looking for doctors or other providers when they search for health informa- tion online. Two thirds of Internet users look online for information about a certain disease or medical condi- tion.The Internet has also become an important source of spiritual support for people with health problems. Susan- nah Fox says one in five Internet users has gone online to find other people who have the same condition.
    A disease is considered uncommon if it affects(侵袭)fewer than 200,000 people worldwide. The rise of social networking has made it easier for people with uncommon diseases to connect with each other and feel less alone. Social networking is also changing the way some doctors and patients communicate with each other.Dr Jeff Livingston operates a medical centre for women in Irving, Texas. His office uses password-protected software to share information with patients. He says the software has increased efficiency(效率), reduced costs and improved relations with patients.

He chose his words from the screen, which were then spoken by a voice synthesizer(音响合成器). “I've had the disease for most of my life,” Hawking once said. “Yet it has not stopped me from being successful at my work. ”Although Hawking was a disabled man, he made great achievements. He received many awards and prizes for his work, including the Albert Einstein Award—the highest achievement in physics.Hawking worked at Cambridge University as a professor. His story shows that nobody, however bad their situa- tion is, should lose hope. “Life is not fair,” he once said. “You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”

    题组一 说明文Passage 1(2020辽宁营口,3)  When Shanghai introduced a new garbage-sorting policy(垃圾分类政策)in July last year, the city's resi- dents(居民)took some time to get used to it. They joked that every time they took out their garbage, the staff(工 作人员)standing by the bins would ask, “What kind of garbage are you?”Starting on May 1, Beijing joined many Chinese cities by introducing a new garbage-sorting policy, People's Daily reported. Residents should sort their garbage into four groups:kitchen, recyclable, hazardous(有害的)and other waste.These groups are represented(代表)by four different colors of trash bins—green, blue, red and gray. Those who fail to sort their trash correctly may be fined(被罚款)up to 200 yuan, Xinhua reported.
    Some cities like Shanghai and Qingdao sort their trash differently. These cities use four different groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Although their names are different, the groups are actually the same. In fact, wet garbage in Shanghai is kitchen garbage in Beijing. And dry garbage is the same as other waste, China Youth Daily reported.To help residents sort their trash correctly, the Beijing government is offering online guidelines. If people don't know how to throw away garbage, they can search for it on the WeChat account Guanchenglishi(管城理市)to find out. By searching a key word or taking a photo, people can immediately find out which group their waste belongs to.
    1.If people don't follow the garbage-sorting policy,       .A.they will have to stand by the binsB.they won't be allowed to throw trash awayC.they won't be noticedD.they may face fines2.According to the passage, which of the following cities have the same names for garbage groups?A.Beijing and Shanghai.B.Beijing and Qingdao.C.Shanghai and Qingdao.D.Qingdao and Wuhan.

    Passage 2(2020北京,C)  There are millions of recipes (菜谱) hidden in the boxes and hearts of grandmothers and parents. These family recipes are a special part of our family history. Some of them have been passed down from generation (一代人) to generation.“I realized I couldn't go home every weekend for my mom's delicious dishes,”says Shreya, who is about to enter university. Shreya has recently started following her mother around the kitchen, taking notes on how to make her “masala chai” and tasty kachoris.“Those special tastes can immediately unlock a whole flood of emotions, memories and feelings of family, love, and comfort,” says she.She adds, “I am looking to the day when my kids will come to know of their grandmothers through the dishes they cooked.”
    But many of us find it difficult to keep the food connection with our busy life.Even if we have time, not many of us take the effort to collect and record the recipes from our grandmothers and parents. We often get a recipe on the phone and take it down quickly on a piece of paper. We just stick it onto the fridge for a week or two and forget about it as soon as the paper disappears from there.Actually, there are simple ways to keep family recipes. Scrapbooks (剪贴簿)are easily found in the market. You can even add photos to record every detail of your memories about the recipe. With the help of some popular apps like Story Scans,recording family recipes has never been easier. What is needed is to scan(扫描) the recipes and record the story behind each of them. It can become the most meaningful work you have ever done with and for your family.Keeping family recipes is saving and honoring our tradition so that future generations can continue to make family ties stronger. Every time you remember your loved ones,recreate one of the dishes from your collection and let the memories from the good old days comfort you. So why not gift your kids a family recipe book when they are starting a new life?
    1.Why does Shreya follow her mother around the kitchen?A.To clean up the kitchen.B.To note down recipes.C.To prepare family dinners.D.To talk about family rules.2.What can we learn from the passage?A.Ways to record recipes can be easy.B.Most people like writing recipe books.C.Recipes have become popular with kids.D.People often buy recipe books in the market.
    3.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Family Recipes:Secrets of CookingB.Family Recipes Are at a CrossroadsC.Family Recipes:Connections to InterestsD.Family Recipes Are More than Just Recipes
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。通过介绍记录家庭菜谱的方法和意义,说明了家庭菜谱可以构建家庭纽 带,传递爱与回忆。1.B 细节理解题。根据题干中的“Shreya follow her mother around the kitchen”可定位到第二段最后一 句“...taking notes on how to make...”。由此可知Shreya跟着她妈妈在厨房忙碌是为了写下菜谱,故选B。2.A 推理判断题。根据第六段第一句可知,记录家庭菜谱的方法是简单的。由“With the help of some popular apps like Story Scans, recording family recipes has never been easier.”可知,一些应用程序的使用也让记录家庭菜谱变得简单。故选A。3.D 主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍了家庭菜谱是家庭历史的一部分,有一些已经被一代一代地传承下 来。第二至五段介绍了Shreya记录她的家庭菜谱的经历以及当代很多人不愿意花时间去记录家庭菜谱的 现状。第六、七段说明实际上记录家庭菜谱是简单且意义重大的,它是家庭关系的纽带,传递着家庭的爱 与回忆。故选D(家庭菜谱不仅仅是菜谱)。词汇积累 pass down流传,使世代相传,at a crossroads在紧要关头,处于关键时刻

Though it is small, the pen has changed the history, improved the trade of countries, recorded events, carried news, and done far more work for human beings than all other tools.Progress without it would have been almost impossible.

It has taken away mountains, and it has prepared the way for all progress and development of society.In the past the pen did all the work if you wanted to keep any writing for some time.

It was with a pen that the greatest thinkers of all time wrote down their thoughts.
    The pen is very utilitarian. We cannot sign a bill or write a letter or buy a house without our pen. An agreement is worthless till our name is written with a pen. The writers encourage the world with it. The students take their examinations with it as well.Our coming into the world is recorded with a pen. Before we have been at school, our name is written on the name list with a pen. We cannot be married till we have signed. A pen records the important events in our life.Let's remember that we hold in our hand the most powerful instrument which man owns. The pen is a magic tool. Whenever you use it, enjoy it.1.What is the writer trying to do in this passage?A.Describe what a pen looks like.B.Introduce the history of the pen.C.Advise people to prepare a new pen.D.Show the importance of the pen.

    Passage 4(2018江苏南京,B)There are almost as many ways to write as there are kinds of texts.

Some writers create an entire work before going back to read what they have written, while others may rewrite a single para- graph many times before moving on. Individual writers' techniques may be different, but successful writers do have one thing in common: the writing process(步骤).

    Passage 7(2016天津,B)Do you know that in some parts of the world, people build temporary(暂时的)hotels made of snow and blocks (大块)of ice? These are known as ice hotels.Unlike usual hotels, all the rooms in the ice hotels are made of ice. In some ice hotels, even the glasses for drinks are made of ice blocks. So they only serve cold drinks. Also, hot food is not served in the ice hotels, but guests can eat hot food at places nearby.To keep warm, guests sleep in comfortable sleeping bags on ice blocks that are covered by mattresses(床垫)and reindeer skins(驯鹿皮).
    There are some places in the ice hotels that are heated, such as the bathrooms. This is because, even though it is not as cold in the ice hotels as it is outdoors(在户外),indoor temperatures are still very low.Perhaps the most interesting thing about the ice hotels is that they are rebuilt every year. They can be used only during the winter months. The ice hotels melt(融化)away when spring arrives. The ice blocks used to build these hotels are from nearby rivers.

    When I opened my e-mail the other day, Rachel, a pretty woman, appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking happily. Sometimes she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. It was cool, right? In fact, she was reading to me an e-mail from my brother John.Rachel could be there because of a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send e-mails in a funny way. By using it, your e-mails can be read to the receiver by an attractive person or by a clown. You can down- load the software at www.Facemail.com without paying. Facemail faces are lively and they can simulate the e- motions that you put in your text. For example, type in , and Rachel blows a kiss.
    Passage 8(2016山西,B)
    LifeFX, the company that developed the Facemail, is sure there are wide business uses. Why is e-business not
    so popular now? One of the reasons is that buying online has no human touch. But if you go to the Nike web- site, and the famous basketball star Michael Jordan greets you by name, serves you, and personally closes the sale, won't you be happy? Also, if mom can't be home when kids get back from school, she can leave a note with a voice and picture on the screen to tell them what there is to eat.It's true that Facemail makes life easy and fun, but it should be used with care. The clown looks lively and fun- ny at first. But if you choose the clown, put a few rude words in an e-mail and add some angry emotions, you' ve got a Psycho mail.

    4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.You shouldn't choose a clown.B.Facemail can be widely used in business.C.Mom can show her kids how to cook by Facemail.5.What is the writer's attitude(态度)towards Facemail?A.He thinks it's a danger to the Internet.B.He thinks it needs further improvement.C.He thinks it's a cool and funny technology.

How did he achieve this?Irving's interest in flying started when he was 15. He was working in his parents' bookstore in Miami, Florida. One of the customers was a pilot, Gary Robinson. One day, Robinson asked Irving if he was interested in fly- ing. Irving didn't think he was smart enough. But the next day, Robinson took Irving to an airport. He showed Irving inside the cockpit(驾驶舱)of a Boeing 777. That experience changed Irving's life.Irving really wanted to fly, but flight school was expensive. To achieve his dream, he worked different jobs. He washed airplanes and cleaned swimming pools. At home, he practiced flying on a video game. In the end, he
    got enough money for flight school.At flight school, Irving achieved his dream of learning how to fly. But he wasn't finished. Next, he planned to build his own plane and fly alone around the world.Building the plane was difficult. Irving asked more than 50 companies for airplane parts. Most said no, but he persisted(顽强地坚持)in asking. Three years later, he had parts worth $300,000. Columbia, an airplane compa- ny, agreed to build a plane using the parts. Soon, his airplane was ready to fly.On March 23, 2007, Irving began his round-the-world trip. After 97 days—with 145 hours in the air—he landed back in Miami. A cheering crowd of people was there to welcome him.Irving saw many young people in the crowd, and this had a powerful effect(影响)on him. He wanted to use his experience to help other young people achieve their own dreams.
    “Everyone told me what I couldn't do,”says Irving.“They said I was too young and that I didn't have e- nough money.

    Passage 2(2020内蒙古包头,A)Find a Job This SummerThis summer there are things that students can do to earn some pocket money or to help others. Also, many programs are offered by the provincial government and its partners to help students find summer jobs. Here are a few ideas.Deliver NewspapersTeenagers can deliver newspapers—usually you ride a bike around a neighborhood and leave the newspaper at each house.

If you are 15—18 and return to school this fall, you can find jobs of this kind.Wash Cars

Go to the government website to learn more about these programs. People under 25 could build skills, find a job or start businesses all year round.They are all great ideas.

    题组四 议论文Passage 1(2020江苏苏州,C)  I think there are several reasons that suggest developing robots is a waste of money.In San Diego recently $325,000 was spent on inventing a robotic squirrel to do some scientific experiments. The research proved that squirrels are able to scare away snakes by wagging(摇动) their tails. Do you need a robotic squirrel to work this out?
    What about AIBO, a robotic pet, developed in Japan? In Japanese aibou means “buddy”. These pets have been developed at huge cost mainly to provide entertainment. They've been used in movies and music videos.
    Universities have used them for educational purposes. However, in 2006 the company stopped producing these robotic pets in order to save money. Was it worth a lot of money?Then there's NAO, a robot which has been developed by a French company. Its main purpose is to make life easier for humans. It speaks 19 languages and has its own personality. It can tell children a story, help in the classroom or the home, or act as a companion to those people who need someone to be with. A fully developed one costs $16,000. Is that value for money?Who can afford it anyway?There may be good reasons why it is worth developing robots, but so far I haven't thought of any.1.What does the underlined word “companion” in Paragraph 4 mean in Chinese?A.公司  B.机构  C.对手  D.伙伴
    2.What is the true fact about the robots mentioned?A.The robotic squirrel is needed by every scientist to do some research.B.AIBO wasn't made any more because it only provided entertainment.C.A fully developed NAO may tell kids stories in different languages.D.All the three types of robots used to be produced at a very low cost.3.What does the writer think of developing robots?A.It can help bring people a lot of fun.B.It has advantages in many ways.C.It may be useful but costs too much.D.It is worth a great deal of money.
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。作者以三个机器人为例,陈述了开发机器人浪费金钱的理由。1.D 词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的to those people who need someone to be with可知,机器人NAO可以 成为那些需要陪伴的人的伙伴。故选D项。2.C 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,造价昂贵的机器松鼠在科学实验中只是用来证明松鼠摇尾巴可 以吓走蛇,显然不是所有的科学家都需要在研究中用到它,A项错误;根据第三段第五句Universities have used them for educational purposes.可知,AIBO不仅有娱乐作用还有教育功能,B项错误;根据第四段第三、 四句It speaks 19 languages...It can tell children a story...可知,NAO可能会用不同的语言给孩子们讲故事,C 项正确;根据文章中提到的三个机器人的造价可知,这些机器人都是非常昂贵的,D项错误。故选C项。3.C 推理判断题。根据第一段I think there are several reasons that suggest developing robots is a waste of money.以及文中叙述的三个机器人的制作成本与作用的巨大反差可知,作者认为机器人过于昂贵但作用 有限,并不值得花那么多钱去开发。故选C项。
    长难句It can tell children a story, help in the classroom or the home, or act as a companion to those people who need someone to be with. 它可以给孩子们讲故事,在教室或家里帮忙,或者成为那些需要陪伴的人的伙伴。句子的主干部分中三个动词tell,help,act构成并列谓语;people后面是who引导的定语从句。重点词汇 a waste of money浪费钱;scare away吓走;personality n.个性词汇积累 entertainment n.娱乐;value for money物有所值
    Passage 2(2020浙江杭州,D)  How would you feel if someone decided to take away your park?Well that's what's happening in my community. There's a park that some people want to turn into a golf course(高尔夫球场). Let met tell you why I think it's a bad idea.First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. This isn't fair. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use.Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment(设施)will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It's also a waste of perfectly good equipment. The swings, for ex- ample, will probably just end up as litter.
    Third, what about giving young people something to do?Not all kids are crazy about golf. At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the community. If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won't have anywhere to go and they won't have anything to do. This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn't it be better to give them something to do at the park?Finally, golf is expensive. Building a golf course and maintaining(维护) it costs a lot of money. Who is going to pay to maintain the golf course?What about those people who can't afford to join a golf club?That means that the golf course will only be available to people with lots of money.Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further.1.Some people want to change the park into       .A.a golf club  B.a golf courseC.a parking place  D.a skating place
    C.play video games at homeD.go to the street and make friends3.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?(P=Paragraph) 
    2.According to Paragraph 4, having nowhere to go will make some children       .A.go to get some exerciseB.fall in love with golf
    4.What is the writer's purpose in writing this passage?A.To help carry out further plans.B.To make the park more beautiful.C.To encourage children to go skating.D.To stop the golf course from being built.答案语篇解读 本文是议论文。作者对于把社区的公园改成高尔夫球场持反对意见,并且陈述了反对的四大 理由。1.B 细节理解题。由第一段中的There's a park that some people want to turn into a golf course.可知B项正 确。
    2.C 细节理解题。由第四段中的This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise.可知C项正确。3.D 推理判断题。文章第一段抛出了问题:公园要被改建为高尔夫球场,作者也表达了对此事的反对态 度;第二段到第五段列举了四个反对这个想法的原因,四个段落为并列关系;第六段再次陈述自己的观点并 提出建议。由此可以推断D项正确。4.D 推理判断题。作者在第一段和最后一段都提出了把公园改建为高尔夫球场是一个很糟糕的想法,并 陈述了自己反对的理由,因此可以推断作者的写作目的就是想要阻止这件事情,因此选D项。
    长难句Second,to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. 第二,为了给高尔夫球场腾出地方,许多场地设施将不得不被移除或者拆毁,这是一种对时间和金钱的浪费。本句是主从复合句。which引导的是非限制性定语从句; to make way for the golf course为动词不定式作状 语。重点词汇 knock down拆毁,拆掉;a waste of ……的浪费

    Passage 3(2020黑龙江哈尔滨松雷中学二模,C)Trying to lose weight can be difficult, and while we all know exercise and diet are both basic needs, which one is more important?If you have to choose, should you be hitting the gym or eating salads? There are many ways you can burn a few hundred calories (卡路里):running for 20 minutes, an hour of swimming, or singing your favourite song 23 times. But the point is that it takes time to burn a lot of calories even with the most tiring activity—not to men- tion the time spent on the way to the gym, and then back home to clean up.Now, compare this to the number of calories in a chocolate bar—which is often over 200 calories. You could ei- ther walk for about an hour to burn that 200 calories, or you could simply not eat that chocolate bar. Which sounds easier to you? How about running for 30 minutes every day or cutting out those two cans of soda? Many
    physicians point out that there are a lot of high-sugar, high-fat, high-calorie foods we could cut from our diet to see weight loss results more quickly. And studies also show that diet does actually play a bigger role in weight loss than exercise. A survey of 2,000 children found that the level of physical activity was not the main reason for their weight. And a study of 3,000 adults discovered that cutting down calories was connected to greater weight loss than exercise alone.Of course, exercise has many health advantages besides weight loss, like slowing the aging process and improv- ing mental health. But at the end of the day, if you expect to lose weight, you're likely to get more bang for your buck if you focus on your diet first.1.The underlined words “get more bang for your buck” most probably mean       .A.更加合算  B.付出努力  C.怦然心动
    2.The third paragraph mainly tells us that       .A.there are a lot of high-sugar, high-fat, high-calorie foods in our daily dietsB.exercise like walking plays an important part in keeping our bodies healthyC.your diet has a greater influence on your weight loss than exercise3.The energy in a chocolate bar       .A.is as much as the energy we need for singing a song 23 timesB.may be burnt by walking for about half an hourC.should not be added to a diet when you want to lose weight
    4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.A survey of 3,000 children found out that cutting down calories is more important.B.Exercise has many health advantages besides helping us lose weight.C.In fact, exercise is not needed when we want to lose weight.5.Which of the following would you choose as the title of the passage?A.Exercise VS DietB.How to Lose WeightC.Different Diets
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。想减肥是很困难的,虽然我们都知道,把锻炼和饮食结合好是必不可少的, 研究往往表明,在减肥上,饮食确实比运动发挥更大作用。如果你先注重你的饮食,你有可能花很少的钱,获 得更大的收获。1.A 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“And studies also show that diet does actually play a bigger role in weight loss than exercise.”可知,如果你先注重你的饮食,你有可能花很少的钱,获得更大的收获,即更加合 算。故选A。2.C 主旨大意题。结合第三段中的“And studies also show that diet does actually play a bigger role in weight loss than exercise.”可知,减肥过程中,饮食确实比运动发挥更大作用。故选C。
    3.C 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Now, compare this to the number of calories in a chocolate bar—which is often over 200 calories. You could either walk for about an hour to burn that 200 calories, or you could simply not eat that chocolate bar.”可知,一条巧克力的能量经常是200多卡路里,需要走路约一个小时燃烧这些卡 路里,或者选择不吃这条巧克力。故选C。4.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中“And a study of 3,000 adults discovered that cutting down calories was connected to greater weight loss than exercise alone.”可知,是对3,000个成年人的研究发现减少卡路里摄入 比仅仅锻炼会让减肥更有效,排除A和C;根据“exercise has many health advantages besides weight loss, like slowing the aging process and improving mental health”可知,锻炼除了可以帮助减肥之外,对健康还有很多 好处。故选B。5.A 主旨大意题。本文主要是把减肥中锻炼和饮食发挥的作用作对比。故选A。

    Passage 5(2019陕西省摸底考试,D)The Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or the foreign countries. They also make their children take after- school activities. The Chinese believe that the more expensive the education is, the better it is. Even poor par- ents will buy computers for their children.But in fact, the best early education that parents can give their children is usually very cheap. They should teach their children the most important skills to help them become confident, happy and clever. Parents can achieve this by teaching children practical skills like cooking, washing and doing other chores. Teaching children to cook will improve many skills that they will need later in life. Cooking needs patience and time. It's an enjoy-
    able but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and finish his job successfully. His result, a great dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confi- dence.Some old machines, such as a broken radio or a TV set that you give your child to play with, will make him in- terested. He will spend hours looking at them and trying to fix them. Perhaps your child will become an engi- neer when he grows up. These activities can teach a child to think. And that is the most important.1.What might the underlined word“generous”mean in Chinese?A.友善的  B.明智的C.慷慨的  D.时髦的
    2.Why does the writer think teaching practical skills is important to children?A.Because it can make children rich and famous.B.Because it can help children find good jobs in the future.C.Because it can help children become a better person in the future.D.Because it can provide them with enjoyable and relaxing experiences.3.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Parents should know how to educate their children better.B.Parents should pay attention to their children's school education.C.Parents are used to spending lots of money on their children's education.D.Chinese children need to learn to do the chores when they are young.
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,讲述了中国的父母都非常慷慨,把孩子送到最好的学校,接受最好的教育,但 是事实上给孩子最好的教育就是让孩子去发展他们的一些技能,教孩子去思考,这对孩子们来说才是最重 要的。1.C 词义猜测题。由下文家长们不惜花重金把孩子们送到最好的学校去读书或送孩子出国,可知这个词 的意思是慷慨的。所以选C。2.C 推理判断题。由第二段中的第二、三句可知,培养实用的技能可以让孩子们成为更好的人,所以答案 为C。3.A 主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲述了父母应该怎样更好地教育孩子,不是给他们提供好的条件,而是应 该交给他们一些技能和技巧。
    长难句But in fact, the best early education that parents can give their children is usually very cheap. 但是事实上父母 亲能够给孩子们的最好的早期的教育通常是非常便宜的。这是一个主从复合句,that引导定语从句,先行词是education。重点词汇 care about关心 satisfaction n.满意
    题组二 记叙文Passage 1(2020云南昆明盘龙、禄劝一模,C)Whenever I look at this photo, I think of an afternoon fishing with my grandfather. My grandfather loves fish- ing. When I was young, he tried to get my brother and me excited about it. “It's a wonderful way to spend the afternoon together,” he told us. Every Saturday he asked us to go with him. At first we would, but fishing seemed so boring to us. Finally, we told him that fishing wasn't our thing. After that, he would go alone. One Saturday afternoon not long ago, I changed my mind and decided to go with him. I thought that maybe I would enjoy fishing more now that a few years had passed. So down to the water we went. We got there, threw the line, and waited. After three hours, all we had was a single tiny fish.“Grandpa,why do you like standing out here for hours like this?” I asked. “You've done nothing all after- noon!”
    “Well,” he said. “When I was a boy, fishing wasn't ‘nothing’. In fact, it was everything. I didn't have TV, video games or smart phones, so I fished. Now, when I fish, I go back to being that boy. It was a happy time.”This photo really changed how I see my grandfather. I don't just see a quiet old man, but rather somebody who has seen many changes and has had many experiences. Right after I took the picture, Grandpa felt a strong pull on his line. In a few seconds, the two of us were trying hard to bring in the biggest fish I had ever seen! It was really exciting. From then on, I went fishing with him whenever I could.
    1.In the writer's grandfather's opinion, the wonderful way to spend the afternoon is to       .A.watch TV B.have afternoon teaC.go fishing D.play chess2.The writer's grandfather had to go fishing alone because       .A.the writer and his brother thought it was boringB.he didn't like to stay with othersC.the weather was so badD.no one else had time
    3.After waiting for three hours, they got       .A.Nothing B.fishing skillsC.a single tiny fish D.the biggest fish the writer had ever seen4.The writer's grandfather        when he was young.A.had no money to buy toys B.lived a simple but happy lifeC.liked to listen to the radio D.lived a hard life5.What can we infer(推断)from the passage?A.The writer's brother also loved fishing gradually.B.The writer finally understood his grandfather and he was willing to stay with him.C.This photo reminds the writer of comfortable life in the countryside.D.It's more popular for teenagers to go fishing than play with smart phones.
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者对祖父的娱乐方式从不理解到理解的过程。告诉我 们爱是理解和陪伴。1.C 细节理解题。根据文中“My grandfather loves fishing.

    Passage 3(2019辽宁鞍山一模,C)A few weeks ago, I participated(参加)in a camping trip at Pitt Lake. I spent three days and two nights there.It was a new experience for me, so I was both nervous and excited at first. Fortunately, the weather was beauti- ful, so we got off to a good start. Because there were so many participants—including both instructors(教练)and students—we had one big canoe(独木舟)and one smaller canoe. I chose to be in the smaller canoe with my friend Mitra, but we soon found that this was not a wise choice. In order to keep up with the bigger canoe, we had to paddle(划桨)hard. My arms quickly became sore and my hands became numb(麻木的). To take our minds off the pain, Mitra and I played“20 questions”while paddling. In this game, one person thinks of an object and the other person asks 20 questions to try and work out what the object is. We had a good laugh be- fore we finally arrived at the campsite.
    We started a campfire soon after we arrived. At night, we gathered around the fire, roasting marshmallows(棉花 糖)and listening to horror stories. Some of the other campers put their wet shoes and socks beside the fire to dry. However, because of the wind, one pair of socks almost caught fire. Everyone panicked(惊慌)—one person got so scared that he fell out of his folding chair. Everyone thought it was pretty funny!The time flew quickly. Soon, it was time to go back.

He studied Natural Resource Planning and Interpreta- tion at college.“I realized that if I was going to do a show on animals, I'd do a show about undersea animals because I'm interested in and know a lot about them,”Hillenburg told Entertainment Weekly in 2010.“I fo- cused on the sponge(海绵动物)because it's one of the most unusual creatures.”Although he wasn't sure whether people would like a cartoon about the ocean, he stuck to it. “We just try to make ourselves laugh, and then ask if it's suitable for children,”Hillenburg thought. “The value of the show is that SpongeBob is an innocent(天真无邪的人)in a world of worldly characters.”What Hillenburg probably didn't expect was that the risks of this character in his underwater hometown would be such a success. There have been nearly 250 episodes(集)so far. It has won several Emmy Awards, and has been translated into more than 60 languages.

    C(2020天津河北一模,C)Many people say dolphins (海豚) are intelligent (聪明的). They seem to be able to think, understand, and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats or dogs? Dolphins use their brains (大脑) quite differently from the way humans do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are alike in some ways. How?CommunicationLike humans, every dolphin has its own “name”. The name is a special whistle (口哨声). Each dolphin chooses a specific (特有的) whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They “talk” to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and finding food. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one “speaks dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.
    PlayDolphins are also social animals. They live in groups called pods (一群), and they often join others from differ- ent pods to play games and have fun—just like people. Scientists believe playing together is something only in- telligent animals do. Dolphins travel together in groups known as pods.TeamworkDolphins and humans are similar in another way:both species make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent strategy (策略) to get food. Dolphins some-times help fishermen find food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. Using this method, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins assist (协助) the men? There is an advantage for them:they get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net.
    1.What does the passage NOT mention?A.How dolphins work together as a team. B.How dolphins play games and have fun.C.How dolphins communicate with each other. D.How dolphins move quickly through the water.2.How does a dolphin get its “name”?A.It gets it from its mother. B.It gets it from scientists.C.It chooses it for itself. D.Its father gives the name to it.3.What do we know about dolphins' communication?A.Dolphins don't “talk” about their feelings.B.Dolphins “talk” to each other about many things.C.Dolphins whistle, but they don't use body language.D.Dolphin conversation is easy for humans to understand.
    4.Dolphins and humans are similar in many ways because they       .①play games in groups②plan ways to do things ③use their brains in the same way ④communicate their feelings to each otherA.①②③  B.②③④C.①②④  D.①③④5.Why do dolphins sometimes help fishermen?A.Dolphins are kind animals.B.Dolphins are afraid of humans.C.Dolphins can get food that way.D.Fishermen ask dolphins for help.
    答案语篇解读 本文主要通过举例说明在某些方面海豚与人类很相像。1.D 细节理解题。根据文中的小标题Communication、Play以及Teamwork可知,这篇文章没有提到海豚 如何在水中快速移动。故选D。2.C 细节理解题。根据“Each dolphin chooses a specific whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday.”可 知,每只海豚都会为自己选择一个特定的口哨声,通常是在一岁前。故选C。3.B 细节理解题。根据“They ‘talk’ to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and finding food.”可知,海豚互相“谈论”很多事情。故选B。
    4.C 细节理解题。根据“They live in groups called pods, and they often join others from different pods to play games and have fun—just like people.”可知①正确;根据“both species make plans for getting things they want”可知②正确;根据“They ‘talk’ to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feel- ings, and finding food.”可知④正确。所以此题正确的是①②④。故选C。5.C 细节理解题。根据“There is an advantage for them:they get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net.”可知,海豚这样做可以吃到食物。故选C。长难句Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.科学家们认为一起玩耍只是聪明 的动物才会做的事情。only intelligent animals do是定语从句,修饰先行词something。

I checked the contents and every- thing was there including anything of cash value.Besides,there was a note. I was surprised when I read the note which said,“I found this last night. It was too dark to go through it then,so I came back tonight. I got your ad- dress from your license.Sorry.Iain.”

    检测二A(2019江苏苏州,C)Every day there is less and less space on Earth for rubbish. Yet every day we make more and more rubbish. What can we do? We can recycle some of our rubbish. Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.Recycling helps Earth. And it saves space in rubbish dumps. Half of everything that we put into landfills could be recycled instead. In fact, most things made of paper, metal, glass and plastic can be recycled.Paper can be broken into small pieces and made into new paper. Steel and aluminum cans(金属罐)can be melt- ed down(熔化)and made into new cans. The same is true of glass bottles. This can be done over and over again. Recycling doesn't take as much energy as making these things for the first time. So we can use less of Earth's
    fuel resources.Plastic can be melted down, too. Then it can be formed into park benches, playgrounds and so on. Some people call plastic the “wood” of the future. Things made of plastic will last about 400 years—even if they stay out- side in the weather. No wood can do that! 
    1.The underlined word“landfills” in Paragraph 2 probably means       .A.bench factoriesB.places for rubbishC.green mountainsD.recycling centres2.According to the passage, what happens last to the can?A.The can is put into a recycling bin.B.The can is melted down and reused.C.A steel can gets filled with corn.D.A person uses the corn in the can.
    3.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Cans should be melted down.B.Old newspapers can be reused.C.We can build benches that last 400 years.D.We should recycle everything that we can.答案语篇解读 本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了针对日益增多的垃圾以及越来越少的存放垃圾的空间的问 题,我们应该采取回收利用垃圾的方法来帮助解决。1.B 词义猜测题。根据第二段第二句Half of everything that we put into landfills could be recycled instead. 可知,此处的landfills表示存放垃圾的地方。bench factories长凳工厂;places for rubbish放垃圾的地方;green mountains青山;recycling centres回收中心。故选B项。
    易错警示 本题易误选D项recycling centres,考生需仔细阅读上下文,找出作者在这里表达的观点:存放在垃圾填埋场的一半垃圾可以被回收利用。说明这些垃圾还没被送到回收中心,即可排除D选项。2.B 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句Steel and aluminum cans can be melted down and made into new cans. 可知,钢罐和铝罐可以被熔化制成新的罐子。B项The can is melted down and reused.罐子被熔化后被再利 用,符合题意。故选B项。3.D 主旨大意题。文章第一段中作者提出自己的观点,我们应该回收利用垃圾。通读全文,作者还介绍了 几种垃圾回收的方法。D项表示我们要把能回收的东西都回收,符合题意。故选D项。长难句Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.回收意味着垃圾将被制 成可以被再次使用的东西。本句为主从复合句。第一个that引导宾语从句;第二个that引导定语从句,修饰先行词something。重点词汇 space n.空间 rubbish n.垃圾 recycling n.回收利用 be made into被制成……
    B(2019湖北武汉,C)Don't Judge a Book by Its CoverEver since I was a little girl, I've loved reading crime and detective(侦探)novels, so I guess it was pretty nor- mal that I started writing them when I was older. However, my family is very big on having a traditional career (职业)and so when I said that I wanted to go to college and study writing, my parents told me that I couldn't. They told me that I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing. I suppose I could have studied journalism(新闻专业), but I didn't want to lose interest in writing be- cause it would be something I would do every day for work, not for pleasure. I thought that teaching looked like a pretty good compromise(妥协), especially because of the long holidays. It was a good choice:by the time I was twenty-five, I'd already finished two novels and had an agent.
    To be honest, I never meant to keep my being a crime writer a secret or anything, and my friends have always known. One of the reasons most people don't know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance(浪漫)novelist for older women. She suggested Brooke Lane and I thought,“Well, if you think it'll make me successful, okay.” I'd totally forgotten about it until I walked into school one day and saw one of my workmates reading my novel. I asked her some questions about it, and it was so clear that she had no idea that I'd written it—she even offered to lend it to me after she'd finished! Of course, sometimes I wonder what my students would think if they knew that their teacher was going home on the weekend to write about murders and dead bodies, but I think my parents probably did me a favor: my teaching job keeps me in touch with the real world.
    1.Hazel is probably      .A.an agent  B.a journalistC.a teacher and artist  D.a teacher and writer2.The underlined words“is very big on” in the passage most probably mean       .A.to give no advice B.to like something very muchC.to have more experiences D.to misunderstand something3.It's clear that Hazel       .A.agreed to study journalism for a degreeB.accepted Brooke Lane as her pen nameC.would like to write something for teachingD.told her workmates about her writing novels
    4.Hazel finally realized that her parents' advice on her career was       .A.helpful  B.excitingC.disappointing  D.risky5.We can infer from the passage that       .A.Hazel likes showing off in publicB.Hazel's students all want to write novelsC.Hazel's agent has played a role in her successD.older women prefer the name Brooke to Hazel
    答案语篇解读 不能通过封皮来评判一本书,也不能通过一个人的职业来了解他的爱好。这篇文章就向我们 诠释了这个道理。1.D 细节理解题。通过文章第一段最后两句和第二段的第二句可知,Hazel既是教师又是作家, 故本题选 择D。2.B 词义猜测题。由第一段第三句可知“我”的父母希望“我”能够有一个不像写作那样有风险的职 业。可以猜出此处的意思是“非常喜欢”, 故本题选择B。3.B 细节理解题。通过文章第二段的第三句可知,Hazel接受了Brooke Lane作为笔名, 故本题选择B。4.A 细节理解题。从文章最后“但是我认为我的父母很可能帮了我一个忙:我的教师工作使得我可以接 触真实的世界”可以判断出来,父母在职业方面的建议是有帮助的, 故本题选择A。
    5.C 推理判断题。从第二段的第四、五句可知,Hazel的代理人建议换过笔名之后,有同事对Hazel的书籍非常感兴趣, 故本题选择C。长难句One of the reasons most people don't know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance novelist for older women.其中一个大多数人不知道的原因是我的代理人告诉我,我的名字 Hazel对于年长一些的女士们来说听起来非常像一个浪漫的小说家。本句话是一个含有定语从句、宾语从句和表语从句的主从复合句,句子结构比较复杂。定语从句most people don't know修饰先行词reasons;由because引导的表语从句中含有一个宾语从句that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance novelist for older women。重点词汇 judge v.判断;choice n.选择;agent n.代理人
    C(2019四川江油一模,D)Huawei is firing back against the US-led campaign(运动、战役)to push it out of major markets, insisting it's still on track to lead the world in the introduction of 5G technology.Despite efforts in markets creating fear for Huawei, using politics to interfere(干预)with growth, customers con- tinue to trust us and continue to work with us and build networks with our technologies, Deputy Chairman(副董 事长)Ken Hu told reporters in the Chinese city of Dongguan on Tuesday.Hu was speaking during a turbulent period for the Chinese company, one of the world's biggest makers of smartphones and telecommunications equipment. Its chief financial officer Ms. Wanzhou Meng is under irra- tional arrest(不合理的逮捕)in Canada, facing possible extradition(引渡)to the United States, and its products are coming under increasing scrutiny from businesses and governments over security(安全)concerns.Despite decisions this year by Australia and New Zealand to stop wireless operators(无线设备)from using Huawei to build their 5G networks, Hu expressed confidence that the company's technology is “significantly
    more advanced”than that of its rivals(对手),giving it a head start of 12 to 18 months and the ability to attract new customers.1.Huawei is good at        according to the passage.A.producing computersB.international negotiationsC.designing earphonesD.5G technology development2.Ms. Wanzhou Meng's case will be possible transferred(转移)to       .A.China  B.the USC.Canada  D.the United Nations

    5.What is the best title for this passage?A.Huawei is still a leader in 5G development although facing troubles.B.Most foreign countries stop using Huawei's 5G technology and equipment.C.Huawei's CFO Ms. Wanzhou Meng is under arrest in Canada.D.The advanced and rapid development of 5G technology is made by Huawei.答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了华为反击以美国为首的政治干预,虽然现在面对很多困难,但是 我们坚信它仍然有望引领世界5G技术的引入。1.D 细节理解题。由第一段中的insisting it's still on track to lead the world in the introduction of 5G tech- nology可知答案为D。2.B 细节理解题。由第三段中的Its chief financial officer Ms. Wanzhou Meng is under irrational arrest(不合 理的逮捕)in Canada, facing possible extradition(引渡)to the United States可知要被转移到美国,即the US。
    3.D 词义猜测题。根据its products are coming under increasing scrutiny from businesses and governments over security(安全)concerns可知对它的产品增加了检查力度,所以答案为D。4.C 推理判断题。由第三段中的its products are coming under increasing scrutiny from businesses and gov- ernments over security(安全)concerns可推知,华为面对的最大问题是安全问题。5.A 主旨大意题。由最后一段中的Hu expressed confidence that the company's technology is “significant- ly more advanced” than that of its rivals(对手),giving it a head start of 12 to 18 months and the ability to at- tract new customers可知,虽然现在华为面对困难,但是华为仍然是5G技术的领导者。
    检测三A(2019广东广州,D)While the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some students at White Cloud Primary School. They became the world's first kids to be“taught”by an electronic teacher. This elec- tronic teacher is not a human-like robot walking around the classroom. Instead, he is a computer-created head that appears, when needed, on students' computer or phone screens. His name is Bill.Created by technology company Smart Machines. Bill is able to show human-like behavior. He is designed to teach a special program about environmental-friendly power created by the sun and wind. This program, started in 2005, used to be taught by human teachers.Just like human teachers, Bill is able to immediately respond to the students' questions and opinions about the
    topic. Thanks to computer cameras, he is also able to see and react to students' physical actions. For example, if a student smiles at Bill, he responds by smiling back. This two-way exchange helps get the students' attention. More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bill's behavior and knowledge base when needed.The program has been a great success, according to Smart Machines spokesman Robert Frost. Frost says, “What is interesting to me is the children's reaction to Bill. He really captures their attention.” Frost thinks kids don't find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people because they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.It is doubtful, however, that human educators will lose their jobs to Bill any time soon. For one, this talking head's knowledge base is not large. More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can't guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily. Bill's future might be as a“personal tutor”,
    providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.1.What is Bill?A.A human-like robot.B.A kind of computer game.C.A computer recording tool.D.A computer-created talking head.2.How does the two-way exchange help the program developers?A.It lets them correct students' mistakes.B.It allows Bill to respond more quickly.C.It helps them know how to improve Bill.D.It helps them study students' body language.
    3.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refers to       .A.kids  B.older peopleC.smart machines  D.program developers4.What is Bill NOT good at doing?A.Attracting students' attention.B.Understanding body language.C.Responding to students' questions.D.Dealing with unexpected situations.
    5.How might Bill be used in the future according to the last paragraph?A.To work as human classroom teachers.B.To encourage students' interest in computers.C.To give students personal help with different subjects.D.To watch over the behavior of the students in the classroom.答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了机器人Bill老师在白云小学教学的经历。机器人Bill老师能 够回答孩子们的问题,对他们的肢体语言做出回应,吸引了孩子们的注意力。但是未来机器人老师是否能 够取代真人教师还是备受质疑的,因为机器人老师的知识储备不够大。
    1.D 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句His name is Bill.可知,前面两句This electronic teacher is not a human-like robot...Instead,he is a computer-created head...以及第三段第一句...Bill is able to immediately re-spond to the students' questions and opinions about the topic.都是对Bill的描写。根据这些描写可知答案 为D。2.C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段倒数第二句 This two-way exchange helps get the students' attention.和 第三段最后一句More importantly, it allows the program developers to improve Bill's behavior and knowl- edge base when needed.可知,这种方式不仅有助于吸引学生的注意力,而且使程序员在需要的时候还可以 对Bill的行为和知识库进行改进,故选C。3.A 词义猜测题。they属于代词, 通常指代前文的人或物。根据they后面have grown up in a time of com- puters and smart phones.可知,they 代替的是前面的kids, 因为出生在电脑和智能手机应用的时期,而不可能 是物,故选A。
    4.D 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第三句More importantly, even the smartest computer programs can't guess and react to all the unexpected situations that educators face daily.可知,Bill并不擅长处理意想不到的情况,故选D。5.C 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后一句话Bill's future might be as a“personal tutor”,providing kids with one-on-one help for different subjects and topics.可知, Bill未来可能成为 “私人家教”,针对不同 的学科和主题,为孩子们提供一对一的帮助,故选C。 长难句Frost thinks kids don't find the experience of being taught by smart machines as strange as older people be- cause they have grown up in a time of computers and smart phones.Frost认为,孩子们不像老年人那样觉得被 智能机器教导的经历很奇怪,因为他们成长在电脑和智能手机(普及应用)的时期。本句是一个主从复合句。动词thinks后跟了一个省略引导词that的宾语从句。在宾语从句中,because引导 原因状语从句。
    B(2019宁夏银川二中一模,E)What should you do if there's an earthquake at school? How can you protect yourself when you are caught in a stampede(踩踏)? March 25 this year provides you with a good chance to learn about safety.This day is called the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and Middle School Students (NDESEMSS)(全国中小学生安全教育日). The theme of the day this year is to give students more knowledge about safety and make sure their lives are safe.A survey done by the China Youth and Children Research Center showed that school accidents kill more ele- mentary and middle school students than anything else. The main accidents come from stampedes, earthquakes, fires and sports injuries(伤害).What can we do to keep ourselves safe? Staying calm(镇静) is the first and most important rule when facing ac-
    cidents. But different accidents have different self-protection advice.A stampede is possible anywhere. The larger a human crowd gets, the more likely stampedes become. When students around you begin to push, stand still and try to hold on to something, or stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands.Earthquakes are common natural disasters(灾难). When you feel the ground shake, drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. You should stay indoors until the shaking stops. If you are outdoors, don't stay near build- ings, trees or power lines.When there's a fire, follow the teachers' instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don't breathe in smoke.
    1.What's the theme of NDESEMSS this year?A.To give students more knowledge about accidents and make them run away.B.To give students more knowledge about health and make sure they eat healthily.C.To give students more knowledge about science and make their study better.D.To give students more knowledge about safety and make sure their lives are safe.2.What should you do first when accidents happen according to this passage?A.Keep calm.   B.Stand there. C.Run away.   D.Cry loudly.
    3.According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Car accidents kill the most elementary and middle school students of all accidents.B.If you fall down in a moving crowd, you can do nothing but wait there.C.When there's a fire, you should use cloth to cover your mouth and nose.D.When an earthquake happens, you should stay near buildings and trees.4.What's the best title for this passage?A.Be afraid of accidents B.How to protect yourselfC.Run away from accidents D.The earthquake is coming
    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,讲述了什么是全国中小学生安全教育日及一旦发生踩踏、地震、火灾时 学生应该怎样保护自己等。1.D 细节理解题。首先要明确theme是主题的意思,然后根据第二段的第二句The theme of the day this year is to give students more knowledge about safety and make sure their lives are safe.可知答案为D。2.A 细节理解题。由第四段中的Staying calm(镇静)is the first and most important rule when facing acci- dents.可知发生危险时我们要保持镇静。故选A。3.C 推理判断题。由第三段第一句可知A项错误;如果在移动的人群中摔倒了,要用双手护住头,所以B选 项中说什么都不做,只是等待是不对的;如果发生地震,应该远离建筑物和树木,而D选项说应该靠近建筑物 和树木是不对的。所以本题选C。4.B 主旨大意题。本篇文章讲述了什么是全国中小学生安全教育日,及一旦发生踩踏、地震、火灾时学 生应该怎样保护自己,所以B“怎样保护你自己”最合适。

    答案语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者没有听父母的话和一个叫Bob的男孩去悬崖下探险并遇险的经 历,获救后作者懊悔不已并向父母道歉。1.C 细节理解题。题干句意:作者在哪里遇见的Bob?根据文章第二段第一句可知答案。2.A 词义猜测题。根据第二段最后一句中的“I wanted to prove to him that I was just as brave”可知“我想要向他证明我一样勇敢”,所以上一句中Bob说作者是不勇敢的,是“胆小鬼”,故选A。3.C 细节理解题。题干句意:作者的父母一直警告他什么事?根据第二段中“I told him that I was not al- lowed to go near that place(Mum and Dad had always told me it was dangerous to play there).”可知作者的父 母不允许作者去悬崖附近玩,故选择C。4.B 细节理解题。根据第三段对作者和Bob去悬崖探险过程的描述可知选B。5.D 推理判断题。题干句意:作者对于自己所做的事有何感受?根据文章最后一段最后一句“I apolo- gized and promised that I would not do anything like that again.”可知作者向父母道歉并保证再也不做类似 的事情,从而推断出作者感到抱歉、后悔的情感态度,故选D。
    长难句A woman tied a rope around herself while a man at the cliff top held the rope.一位女士将一根绳子系在自己身上的同时,一位在悬崖顶端的男士抓住绳子。本句是主从复合句,while引导时间状语从句,表示“与……同时”,强调两个动作同时发生。重点词汇 be fun doing sth.做某事有趣;prove证明;apologize道歉;promise承诺词汇积累 explore v.探索;relieved adj.宽慰的
