She had traveled the route so many times that she almost drove on autopilot (自动驾驶): a left onto Station Road, then a left on Montauk Highway, and then---- bang! Out of nowhere, a car T-boned Janice’s car, pushing her backward onto the railroad tracks.As it happened, Pole DiPinto was getting ready for bed. He’d just closed his book when he heard the loud crash not far outside his bedroom window. A volunteer firefighter and retired teacher, 64, never stopped to think. He grabbed a flashlight and still in his pajamas (睡衣), ran out of the door. “Any firefighter would have done what I did,” he said, “We’re always on duty.”The first car he came upon was the one that had hit Janice. Once DiPinto concluded the driver was OK, he looked around and spotted Janice’s car lay across the railroad tracks. And then he heard a terrible sound: the bells signaling an on-coming train.DiPinto rushed to Janice’s car and banged on the driver’s side window. She just looked at him, her eyes unfocused. “I don’t know where I am,” she said. She seemed unhurt. “Honey, you’re on the railroad tracks,” DiPinto shouted, “We have to get you off right now!” He pulled hard on the door handle, but it didn’t work. The heavy train, traveling at 65 miles per hour, was heading toward them. DiPinto ran to the passenger side and threw open the door. “Please, God, don’t let her be trapped”, he thought. He pushed aside the airbags, grabbed Janice’s arms, and pulled her toward him across the passenger seat until he could help her out and walk her to safety. Within six seconds, he estimated, the train crashed into the car.“It was like a Hollywood movie,” DiPinto told reporters the next day. But this one had a difference. That night, the hero arrived in pajamas, not in a fire truck.24. What can we know about the accident from Paragraph 1? A. Janice drove too fast. B. Janice didn’t know the route well. C. A running vehicle crashed into Janice’s car. D. Janice’s car pushed backward another vehicle.25. What do we know about Pete DiPinto?A. He was the volunteer firefighter who was on duty that night.B. He wasn’t aware of the coming train when he was rescuing Janice.C. He was in sound sleep in his bedroom when the accident happened.D. He first confirmed the other driver before he came to Janice’s rescue.26. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A. Janice didn’t know where she was.B. The airbags protected her in some way.C. DiPinto rescued Janice without difficulty.D. All the doors of Janice’s car were in good condition.27. What is the best title for the text?A. A Hero in Pajamas. B. A Hollywood Movie.C. A Dangerous Heavy Train. D. A Horrible Car Accident.C It’s not strange to see pandemics in Hollywood movies. But for the real-life version, there is no script. In the midst of global coronavirus pandemic, moviegoers stuck indoors have turned to the streaming service to watch TV series and movies they missed in the theater. Meanwhile, since Hollywood studios were forced to stop production, making a living became difficult for hundreds of thousands of craftsmen, technicians, and artists that the movie and entertainment industry depends on. This health emergency presents an unprecedented(史无前例的) challenge to the industry’s creative capital, where one in eight of all private wage and salary workers are estimated to work directly or indirectly in the creative industries. “This feels like the end of an era,” said Pam Elyea, who owns one of Hollywood’s most popular prop (道具) houses. She had to temporarily close her business to obey social distancing restrictions. Later she dismissed her entire staff. “We are devastated. Some of our staff hadn’t signed up for unemployment for over 20 years,” she told the reporter. “ It was hard, very hard.”Raymond Brown, a 33-year-old movie maker, said the current coronavirus dilemma was different from many circumstances he had seen in the industry, including the Writers Guild of America strike, the global financial crisis, and some natural disasters. Brown is a member of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees(IATSE). The union announced in March that more than 90% of its members were unemployed as a result of the pandemic. Recently, it cooperated with the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank to hand out meals to entertainment workers. In Hollywood, studios, producers and union members have been struggling to restart production while ensuring their worker’s safety. Elyea’s hope is that she will be able to rehire her staff upon the recovery of the movie industry. She has been displaying items in her pop house of 3,066 square meters online so that her customers can browse the prop house without breaking social distancing guidelines. 28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The uncertainty of the pandemic. B. The opinions of Hollywood movie fans.C. The advantages of the streaming service. D. The cause of unemployment in Hollywood. 29. What does the underlined word “devastated” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Afraid. B. Shocked. C. Nervous. D. Unfortunate.30. Why did Brown mention circumstances like the Writers Guild of Americastrike?A. To prove that he is an experienced worker. B. To give examples of some global crises he had seen. C. To stress the extreme seriousness of the coronavirus pandemic. D. To explain the differences between the coronavirus pandemic and other crises. 31. Which of the following can best describe the current situation in Hollywood?A. It’s badly affected, and people are hopeless. B. It’s partly influenced, and people are anxious. C. It’s totally destroyed, but people are unconcerned. D. It’s severely damaged, but people are determined. D Though the harmful effects of plastic on wildlife and human health are well-documented, this material is hard to avoid. Nearly everything we touch, from grocery bags to drink bottles, to food packaging, contains plastic. Now, Amsterdam’s Ekoplaza supermarket is making it a little easier for consumers to reduce consumption of single-use plastic bags and containers, which are blocking our landfills at alarming rates, with a special plastic-free aisle (通道). Believed to be the world’s first, the aisle has 700 products on sale including rice, beans, yogurt, chocolate, milk, cereal, snacks and meat.While items still require packaging, everything is housed inside reusable or recyclable containers made of glass, metal or cardboard. The unique idea was given to the grocery-chain officials by UK-based environmental group A Plastic Planet, which takes the lead to support at least one plastic-free aisle in supermarkets around the globe. The non-profit has even created a signature “plastic-free” mark to help consumers identify eco-friendly packaging. “This is a consumer-led campaign,” said a group co-founder Sian Sutherland. “We’re a grassroots organization. So obviously we’re working with industry and the government, but most importantly, we represent the public.”Ekoplaza, which plans to roll out the plastic-free aisles across its 74 stores by the end of the year, is not the only company trying to reduce plastic waste. In Berlin, the Original Unverpackt grocery store has been trying to change customer habits since 2014 by selling everything, from grains to produce and even soaps without plastic packaging. The supermarket, which requires customers to bring their own reusable containers, even sells chewable toothpaste that needs no tubes.Though it is encouraging to see companies trying to make a difference, for real change to happen, consumers have to avoid products covered in plastics, even if it means giving up their favorite food or drink. As Sutherland put it, “Plastic food and drink packaging remains useful and yet a destructive presence on the earth for centuries afterwards.”32. What does Ekoplaza want to do by setting up a plastic-free aisle?A. Cut down managing cost. B. Reduce plastic-packaging.C. Make shopping much easier. D. Increase the amount of sales.33. Which of the following can make a real difference?A. Consumers. B. Supermarkets.C. Organizations. D. Companies.34. What does Sutherland think of plastic packaging in the future?A. It will be of no use to consumers. B. It will exist for a long time.C. It will disappear in this century. D. It will replace other containers.35. What might be the title of the passage?A. Plastics are Harmful to the Environment.B. Non-profits Can Help the Supermarkets.C. Consumers Should Change Shopping Habits.D. Supermarkets Take Action for a Cleaner Planet.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。有两项为多余选项。 When you get in your car, you reach for it. When you’re at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. 36 Cigarette? Cup of coffee? No, it’s the third most addictive thing in modern life: the cell phone. And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to control their longing to touch it the moment they open their eyes. 37 However, I don’t mean just the monthly bill. Dr. Chris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: 38 Besides, it has also become an escape from reality.Sounds extreme, but we’ve all witnessed the evidence: The person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, 39 .Jim Williams is an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts. He has done lots of researches on using cell phone. His study shows that cell-phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening gulf of personal separation. He points out in a study that one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. 40 “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances via the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends.” he says,A. And most of them don’t have many friends.B. When you get into a lift, you play with it.C. Cell phones are becoming more and more useful.D. The costs are becoming more and more evident.E. avoiding contact with kids all around himF. It has become a barrier to one-on-one personal contact.G. paying attention to the real world第三部分 英语知识运用（共一节，满分30分）完形填空（共20小题，每题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Most teens I meet these days lack basic social courtesy(礼仪) when dealing with people.My own son, who basically 41 with his grandmother, the original manners guru(专家), has perfect table manners. This is partly because he was 42 to manners at a very young age. However, when we eat at home, he would not 43 manners. So I asked him why. He said, ''I behave the way I am supposed to 44 when I'm out, but when I am at home，I want to be 45 .''That's when I realized that most parents, myself included, do 46 their children the proper way to behave outside the home, but they are also 47 to believe that at home, anything goes.My 48 to him was ''good behavior has nothing to do with where you are or whom you are with''.Then he answered, '' But I behave 49 when I'm with others so that they think better of me. '' And that is when I realized that I was doing things all 50 . I explained to him that it had nothing to do with what people think. This 51 him even more.So I went on to explain that behavior, whether in your everyday 52 with people or at the dining table at home, is an 53 of who you are. Well, at the age of 13, he got it.So basically, what I am saying is that teaching your children 54 comes with the underlying(暗含的) lesson that it is not about 55 to do or not to do, but rather, who they are. This way it is not 56 ; it comes from within.Teach your teens or children the 57 courtesy of greeting their friends' parents and 58 themselves when they go to someone’s home. Teach teenage boys to open the door of a car, or any door for anyone who 59 , for any girl, whether they are their girlfriends or not. This includes holding elevator doors or letting women step out of the elevator first. Just 60 that teenage boys who practice good manners and courtesy grow up to become men who respect people in general.41．A．came up B．grew up C．turned up D．showed up42．A．exposed B．limited C．cared D．concerned43．A．learn B．practice C．remember D．make44．A．live B．obey C．react D．behave45．A．gentle B．polite C．comfortable D．kind46．A．guide B．offer C．teach D．support47．A．attended to B．brought up C．cared about D．depended on48．A．answer B．devotion C．apology D．affection49．A．strangely B．nervously C．calmly D．properly50．A．reasonable B．important C．wrong D．necessary51．A．confused B．encouraged C．moved D．pleased52．A．competition B．argument C．struggle D．interaction53．A．impression B．expression C．appearance D．attitude54．A．lessons B．skills C．manners D．examples55．A．what B．how C．where D．why56．A．possible B．violent C．strange D．automatic57．A．minor B．formal C．basic D．casual58．A．pleasing B．introducing C．enjoying D．amusing59．A．admires B．forgives C．consults D．matters60．A．remember B．confirm C．predict D．consider第Ⅱ卷（共 60 分）第四部分 写作（共五节，满分60分）单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）（温馨提示：必须使用选修六二、三、四单元单词，根据所给汉语提示，写出单词的正确形式）。61.
