第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

There are many common household items that are non-toxic（无毒的）and that work well for killing weeds.

Boiling water、

It is especially good for sidewalks, driveways, or yards. You can boil the water to 100 degree in a container, which is better, as it makes it easier and safer to pour, as well as gives your weed-killing a bit more accuracy.

Fire

Using a kitchen burner or flame-weeder tool to apply heat directly to the leaves and roots of the weed is a fine way of getting rid of them, but be careful not to bum the entire neighborhood down. Anywhere there is dried material you should use fire with extra care.

Vinegar（醋）

White vinegar is perfectly fine for weed killing, especially when a pump or two of dish soap are added into the spray（喷洒）bottle. Spray it directly on the leaves of the disliked plant and be careful not to over-spray. Consider waiting until any strong wind has wound down as a bit of wind can carry the chemicals onto other plants you'd like to keep. Also try to avoid dropping vinegar into the soil, as it will make it harder for anything to grow there.

Salt

Salt is a great weed-killer and can be added to vinegar or hot water sprays, but when it goes into the earth nothing can grow. Add a little dish soap to help the salt stick to the leaves and be careful where you aim. Spraying the soil will damage it, while hitting other plants you like may kill them too.

1. Which item can kill weeds precisely?

A. Fire. B. Salt. C. Vinegar. D. Boiling water.

2. Why should we spray a little vinegar directly on leaves?

A. To avoid chemicals. B. Vinegar has poison.

C. Vinegar is too sticky. D. To protect your other plants.

3. Where can this text come from?

A. A technology magazine. B. A gardening magazine.

C. A cooking magazine. D. An encyclopedia.

【答案】1. D2. D3. B

B

Like most parents, I’m terrified at how quickly time goes, so I feel a constant pressure to save every moment for my children. I want to keep it so I try to record it on film and relive the moments whenever I look back on it. I want to remember as much of my kids’ childhood as possible. But I found that, actually, the more I document the less I remember. And to do this, I think I need to put the camera down.

It's hard to describe how it feels when a photo stirs (搅动，唤起)a memory. For instance, when I look at the pictures of my son on the day he was born----I am there in the hospital, I remember the mixture of incredible emotions, the way he felt, and I even remember the smell. But I have taken thousands of photos of him since then and they don’t have nearly this much impact. Often I look at the photos only a year or so old and while I can see it is my son and me, and I know we were at that place at that time, it doesn’t stir anything. I know it happened, but I don’t really remember it. And I think it’s because I have spent so much time behind the camera, rather than in the moment.

And there is another reason to put the camera down. I want my kids to be comfortable in their skin for as long as possible, happily unaware of how they might ‘appear’. Just last month my son was running outdoors around a giant decorative polar bear, laughing, when my mother-in-law took out her phone to take a picture, and immediately I saw some changes in him. He slowed down a bit. His smile lasted too long. At four years old, my little boy already knows that when that black box is in his face, the expectation is on him to perform.

Of course, taking photos has its uses and I don’t plan to stop now. But my aim is to take a less-is-more approach.

4. What did the writer mean by saying “the more I document the less I remember”?

A. She couldn't remember anything when she took photos.

B. She tried her best to remember what happened through films and photos.

C. She spent so much time taking photos that she didn't remember how it felt at that moment.

D. She found it hard to remember what happened at that time.

5. How were Paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 mainly developed?

ABy offering data. B. By following time order.

C. By making classification. D. By giving examples.

6. Why did the writer’s son behave differently when facing the camera?

A. Because he was aware of what's going on.

B. Because he was afraid of it

C. Because he didn’t like it.

D. Because he was comfortable with performing.

7. What's the author’s attitude towards taking photos?

A. Objective. B. Positive.

C. Negative. D. Indifferent.

【答案】4. C5. D6. A7. A

C

He is a 62-year-old superior court judge, but they are former addicts and criminals. All of them, however, are part of one team： the Skid Row Running Club in Los Angeles （L. A.）.

Twice a week, before the sun comes up, Judge Craig Mitchell runs the mile from his office at the county courthouse to The Midnight Mission, a social services organization centered in Downtown's Skid Row - the well-known area where the city's largest homeless population lives.

At the organization, he meets a group of 30 to 40 people and together they run through East L. A. The group includes runners from all walks of life and all levels of athleticism. Some members are homeless or in recovery, and others are lawyers, social workers or students.

Mitchell developed the program in 2012 after a man he'd once sentenced to prison returned to thank him. “He was paroled（假释）to The Midnight Mission and decided to come back and said 'Thank you, Judge Mitchell, for treating me like a human being. ' The president of the organization at the time asked me if there was something that I could do to contribute to the organization, and I thought of starting a running club. That was the inception," Mitchell said.

Every year, Mitchell takes his most devoted Skid Row runners on a free trip to participate in an international marathon. "I come back to the courthouse after any run and check off who is there. And so, I know exactly who has been faithful to the running program and who just comes once in a while, ” he said.

Mitchell says he's seen some participants turn their lives around, attending college, securing full-time employment and possessing calmness. "Running is a way for the participants to build relationships," he said. "You can be an amazing runner and benefit as much as our fast runners, because at the end of the day you're going to be surrounded by people who really care about you and want to spend time with you. Everybody is welcome. We believe. We listen. We support.

8What can we learn about the Skid Row Running Club?

A. It was set up to make a profit.

B. It consists of all sorts of members.

C. It's failed to win popularity in L. A.

D. It was designed mainly for court judges.

9. What does the underlined word "inception" in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?

A. Origin. B. Standard.

C. Contribution. D. Distribution.

10. Why does Mitchell check off runners after any run?

A. To check their health. B. To compare their speed.

C. To award devoted runners. D. To make sure of their presence.

11. What does Mitchell's story tell us?

A. Running can highly educate criminals.

B. We can gain admiration if we work hard.

C. We can make a difference when we care.

D. Running can help build a charity for the poor.

D

True, people remember what you wear. After a social event, we all remember the woman in red, or the man with the top hat. On the red carpet, Hollywood hopefuls take advantage of this reality by wearing outfits designed to be discussed and displayed on the front pages of newspapers. But in terms of making a good impression, being memorable is not just about novelty or fashion, but attraction, both physical and emotional, often in opposite order of importance.

In a 2020 study, Andre Ndobo found people tended to remember the extremes: both attractive and unattractive faces. He acknowledged that one suggested explanation was that both are characterized by distinctive features that promote facial recognition when compared with faces of average attractiveness. But while distinctiveness is memorable, beauty is skin deep. Accordingly, the way you are remembered by others is often not about what you wear and how you look but about the way you make people feel.

Professional interaction can create positive personal memories. Adrie A. Koehler, in a piece entitled “In the Eye of the Beholder” (2017), found that when asked to recall their best learning experience, many students discussed a memorable teacher. What made the teachers memorable? According to the students, memorable qualities included not only teaching styles, but also interpersonal skills and positive qualities such as a sense of humor.

We can relate to the results of this study when recalling people who are memorable in our own lives. They are not always people who we believed to be the smartest or most believed, but often those who made us feel the most comfortable, and who were most interested in us. Sincere interest is uniquely attractive. Not only will you remember what someone said, but they will also remember you, fondly.

Regardless of what we wear or how we look, we are always naturally more appealing and approachable when we focus on others and when we are genuine rather than simply sociable. Remember that, and others will remember you.

12. The Hollywood hopefuls are mentioned to show ________.

A. the competition on the red carpet B. people’s attempt to be remembered

C. people’s wrong belief about impression D. the importance of clothing in one’s success

13. Why is an unattractive face remembered according to Andre Ndobo?

A. It creates positive memories. B. There’s something special with it.

C. It makes people feel uncomfortable. D. People often try hard to avoid seeing it.

14. What can we infer from the text?

A. Smart people are especially attractive.

B. Teaching styles impress students most.

C. The best learning experience is hard to gain.

D. Sincere attention is useful in communication.

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

A. You Are What You Wear B. Mind the Impression You Make

C. How Can We Improve Our Self-image? D. What do People Remember about You?

The map is already being used in Japanese school textbooks. According to the Good Design Award judges, it is the best example of what the planet really looks like. ___20___

A. However, they did suggest increasing the accuracy further by cutting the world into even smaller pieces.

B. It recently won Japan’s 2016 Good Design Award.

D. It recently becomes very popular in Japan and catch much attention.

1.网络对教育的影响（利与弊）；

2.你的建议。

注意：

1.写作词数应为80左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

【答案】Dear Sir/ Madam,

The Internet has transformed the world into a global village altering all aspects of our life, especially education. Here, I am writing to share my thoughts on its positive effect as well as negative one.

The most obvious advantage lies in the wide choice of courses. Learners can have access to the courses tailored for personal needs regardless of time and space. As a result, learning occurs in such an efficient way that gaining knowledge is easier than ever. The downside is just as noticeable. Along with individualized courses, the Internet presents half-truths that puzzle the young minds where self-control and judging power are still forming.

Therefore, I strongly suggest that the use of the Internet should be under supervision of adults. And parents and teachers should provide guidance to ensure it best serves the mental and physical growth of the teens.

Yours faithfully,

Li Hua
