This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed. It is also an informative document on the fifteenth-century society, through Van Eyck’s heavy use of symbolism—while husbands went out to engage in business, wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.The Starry NightVincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas(帆布), a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12-month stay at the mental hospital near Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France between 1889 and 1890. When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh’s most famous works.The HarvestersThe Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It depicts the harvest time which most commonly occur within the months of August and September. Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp,commissioned this painting. The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.GuernicaGuernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937. The title “Guernica” refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result, has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war. Today, the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid.1.Which of the following paintings was produced earliest?A.The Arnolfini Portrait.B.The Starry Night.C.The Harvesters.D.Guernica.2.What do we know about the painting The Starry Night?A.It was painted on wood in oil.B.It wasn’t widely recognized before 1941.C.It described the painter’s life in hospital.D.It was given away to the museum by a collector.3.Who created the painting describing the tragedies of war?A.Pieter Bruegel the Elder.B.Vincent van Gogh.C.Jan Van Eyck.D.Pablo Picasso.B　　Many students have trouble sitting quietly. They play with pencils, talk out of turn, and jump to do things before thinking. Others can sit still but find it hard to focus on classwork. They may daydream, struggle to organize their work and forget to do assignments.Most people feel restless or unglued from time to time, but some feel this way almost all the time. Nearly one out of ten kids have ADHD (Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder). But ADHD does not have to be a roadblock to achievement. Here, two professionals in their fields share the secrets of their success.Astronaut Scott Kelly has flown on four space tasks, including one that lasted close to a year. But when he was growing up, he had trouble focusing in school. As a result, he earned low grades.“I read a novel in college about the space program. The book motivated me to study harder and become a much better student and eventually, an astronaut. The lesson I learned was: Don’t give up on yourself. Find something or someone that motivates you and use that to help motivate yourself.”Figure skater Zachary Donohue placed fourth for ice dancing at the 2018 Winter Olympics. In elementary school, Zachary had a hard time making friends because his classmates thought he was wild, overly excitable and lacking orderly continuity. “A lot of very successful people have ADHD, so wear it with pride. When I was 16, I realized that it was OK for me to be different than others. Now, at 27, I’m learning to understand my own feelings. I still struggle with ADHD, but I’ve learned that I’m responsible for more than just myself. I’ve learned how important it is to be organized and to be a step ahead. ”4.The author may agree that　　　. A.failure is the mother of successB.nothing can stand in the way of successC.the secrets of success should be sharedD.people with ADHD are more likely to succeed5.What contributes to Scott Kelly’s success?A.Living with ADHD.B.The lessons on astronomy.C.His great interest in space.D.The motivation from his grades.6.What does Zachary Donohue do with ADHD?A.He faces it responsibly.B.He views it differently.C.He takes advantage of it.D.He sees it as a disadvantage.7.How is the passage mainly developed?A.By examples.    B.By comparison.C.By explanation. D.By classification.C　　 One of the most traditional British holidays is the seaside holiday.Typically, families travel to British seaside towns.　　In the late 1970s, air travel became affordable for the average family, and more and more British people started travelling abroad for their summer holidays. After all, the British weather isn’t very good, even in summer.　　In the 1980s and 1990s, British young people became wealthier. They started to go abroad in groups. Once at their destination they socialised with other young people and had one long party.　　British holiday habits have begun to change, however.The UK now has a warmer climate than before, so people don’t always feel they need to go overseas. Also, the world seems a less certain place as interconnected economies (经济) rise and fall, which means that the cost of foreign holidays is less predictable than before. The domestic (国内的) tourism industry — when people go on holiday in their own country — is healthier than it has been in decades.The UK newspapers have even invented a new word: a “staycation”.　　In some ways, therefore, the UK has come full circle. There is now an increased appreciation among Britons for the diversity of the UK. It is not just the geography, which ranges from the flat fens (沼泽) of East Anglia to the valleys of Wales to the mountains of Scotland, which is diverse. And it is not just the diversity of climate-based activities on offer, which range from surfing in the warm southwest of England, to hillwalking and skiing in the north, it is also the diversity of the cultures in the UK that is beginning to be of interest to domestic tourists. People forget sometimes that there are different accents, languages, traditions, cuisines and peoples across all the parts of the UK.8.Why do more British people take their holidays in their own country?A.The Internet makes them closer.B.They are wealthier and more sociable.C.The global climate is getting much warmer.D.The expense on foreign holidays is unsteady.9.What does the underlined word “staycation” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.A vacation spent at home.B.A healthier style of living.C.A new way to spend holidays.D.A fashionable tourism industry.10.Which is the best heading that matches Paragraph 5?A.Flights of fancy.B.Sun, sea and sand.C.The length and width.D.Footloose and fancy-free.11.What’s the purpose of the author in writing the passage?A.To prove the UK has diverse scenery.B.To show the UK starts to discover itself.C.To tell the development of the UK.D.To explain why the British spend holidays inland.D　　There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.　　On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.　　Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.　　We should not only embrace our heritage(传统)through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.12.What’s the function of food mentioned in the article?A.To help motivate homesickness.B.To show national identity.C.To reflect a country’s history.D.To show a community’s superiority.13.What does the underlined “it”in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The specific traditional food.B.The national culture.C.A traditional expression of food.D.The old-fashioned taste.14.Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurants?A.To attach cultural importance to their dishes.B.To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.C.To make the dishes popular among customers.D.To present their own food culture in a new way.15.What’s the author’s attitude towards different food cultures?A.Negative. B.Balanced.C.Unfair. D.Unchangeable.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。The dictionary isn’t forever. What happens to a word when its popularity starts to decline? Here’s how the process of deleting a word from the dictionary works.The dictionary is actually a steadily enlarging volume.16.　　　New words arise from emerging and expanding disciplines. Definitions also change and shift, so common words gain new meanings. On the other hand, there are also words that become outdated. 17.　　　 Who decides which words to delete?18.　　　While adding a word to the dictionary is a precise process, it’s even more difficult for a word to get deleted. Editors maintain and study vast language databases to keep up-to-date on the words in circulation across various media. The Oxford English Dictionary covers the English language over the last 1,000 years, and it’s considered definitive and authoritative.19.　　　And each has its own process for additions and removals. 20.　　　 A 2019 petition(请愿)with 30,000 signatures calls for the Oxford English Dictionary to remove sexist language and definitions, especially those terms under the word “woman”. And Merriam-Webster recently changed definitions of identity-related words to reflect new cultural meanings around fairness. A.Some new words might be out of date one day.B.As a result, words get removed from the dictionary.C.Dictionary additions and deletions reflect social changes.D.It’s up to the dictionary editors to make the final decision.E.That’s because the English language constantly developsand changes.F.These are often the types of words that will make it into dictionaries.G.However, there are many other dictionaries that are reliable and trustworthy.第二部分　语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。One winter nine years ago, I　21　 at a homeless shelter in Los Angeles, preparing meals for people.

Only a few hundred people went to the park each year, and Gross wanted to be part of that club. Chase did, too, but she worried about hiking in polar bear country.Two Sierra Club guides were the leaders. Gross, then 60, worked for a nonprofit housing organization in San Francisco. Chase, 59, a medical consultant from North Carolina. The pair had guided 13 trips together. Joining them were Larry, 63, a New York City lawyer; Frankel, 65, an exercise physiologist(生理学者) from Oregon; Dyer, 48, a legal aid lawyer from Maine; and Isenberg, 55, a physician from Arizona. Chase’s husband, Mendez, 63, a quality-improvementconsultant, would be joining them as well. On Sunday, July 21, 2013, a floatplane carrying the Club party went down toward the eastern shore of the Torngats. The first thing the group did was set up camp 150 yards from the shore. At 4 a.m., Mendez stepped out of his tent and saw that they weren’t alone. “Polar bear on the beach!” he yelled. A mother and her cub(幼崽)were walking along the shore in the early-morning light. Over dinner, they laughed, sharing stories of their past trips and lives back home. They didn’t talk much about the bear that was observing them. It seemed almost like a piece of the landscape—just another detail in the impressive setting. Mendez felt reassured by their bear interactions that day. The mother and cub weren’t interested in them. But Dyer couldn’t shake his unease. “Why don’t we post a watch?” he asked. But Gross wasn’t worried. “That’s what the fence is for,” he told Dyer.They fell asleep listening to the waves. At 3:30 a.m.,Chase woke to screams. From the window of her tent, she saw a polar bear a few feet away. It was down on all fours, eyes level with her, huge and white except for the black of its eyes and nose. “Gross!” she screamed. The bear tore at a neighboring tent and dragged something into the darkness. Gross grabbed his flare gun, ran out in his long underwear, and aimed at the bear. The animal was 75 feet away, heading west.注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式作答。Paragraph 1:　　He saw that what was in the bear’s mouth was not a thing at all—it was Dyer.     Paragraph 2:　　The bear dropped Dyer hard and fled.
