On the first day of school, I came across my new English teacher, Ms Kirschmann. I really mean that—I just ran into her.
As I began to apologize, she started “shouting” at me. But I soon realized that she was simply saying hello and welcoming me to her class in a very loud voice.
Kirsch, as she wanted us to call her, had a creative and fascinating character. Her hair color, fashion sense and energy took up the entire room. When we read the play Macbeth by Shakespeare, Kirsch let us play characters and wear masks (面具). There's a big drum in the classroom. Every time we read the word “thunder” in the text, she would beat it excitedly! My classmates and I would laugh every time.
During group discussions, Kirsch often told us to sit in a circle on the floor. We talked about the play and she took notes of what we said. Doing so made us feel independent and challenge ourselves more with critical (批判性的) thinking.
Kirsch is really a social butterfly. She smiles, laughs and tells jokes wherever she goes. But I found out about another side of her the other day.
After school that day, I saw Ms Kirschmann with her son. She was persuading (劝说) him to put on his jacket. She spoke with such a gentle voice that I was quite surprised. Until then, it didn't occur to me that Ms Kirschmann could be quiet. I suddenly felt a lot of respect for this lady who was youthful, calm, intelligent and caring all at once.
4. What did Kirsch do when her students read the word “thunder”?
A. She greeted them out loud. B. She hit the big drum.
C. She laughed loudly. D. She put on a mask.
5. How did the group discussion help the students?
A. It helped them feel relaxed.
B. It gave them a sense of humor.
C. It helped them take more notes.
D. It helped them develop critical thinking.
6. “Social butterfly" in Paragraph 5 was used to show Ms Kirschmann ________.
A. was active and bright B. was loud and noisy
C. spoke with a gentle voice D. wore colorful clothes
7. Which of the following words can best describe Kirsch?
A Curious. B. Traditional.
C. Energetic. D. Impatient.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章作者介绍了自己的新英语老师Kirsch，充满朝气和活力，上课的教学方法很新颖独特。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“There's a big drum in the classroom. Every time we read the word “thunder” in the text, she would beat it excitedly!”（教室里有一个大鼓。 每次我们读到课文里的“雷”这个词，她就会兴奋地敲打它! ）可知当她的学生读到“雷”这个词时，Kirsch就会敲这个大鼓。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“During group discussions, Kirsch often told us to sit in a circle on the floor. We talked about the play and she took notes of what we said. Doing so made us feel independent and challenge ourselves more with critical (批判性的) thinking.”（在小组讨论中，Kirsch经常让我们在地板上坐成一圈。 我们讨论了那出戏，她把我们说的话记了下来。 这样做让我们感到独立，并通过批判性思维挑战自己）可知小组讨论帮助学生培养批判性思维。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“She smiles, laughs and tells jokes wherever she goes.”（无论走到哪里，她都会微笑，大笑，讲笑话）可推知第五段的“Social butterfly”被用来展示Kirschmann女士的活跃和有活力。故选A。
【7题详解】

C
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic reasons—why they should be preserved. So, let's assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate（影响）its surroundings too much, it often improves attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt（破坏）the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, though that might be the more risky choice.
8. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?
A. Some of them are not attractive. B. Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C. They are more pleasing than modern buildings. D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
9. Which of the following is true according to the author?
A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B. Buildings should no dominate their surroundings.
C. Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D. No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
10. By "move things forward" in the last paragraph, the author probably means " "
A. destroy old buildings B. put things in a difference place
C. choose new architectural styles D. respect people's feeling for historical buildings
11. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To explain why people dislike change B. To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings. D. To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【分析】本文为议论文。文章讨论了是否现代的建筑应该和古老的历史建筑在一起，在作者看来历史建筑应该保存，但是我们的建筑风格也应该改变，不能因为历史建筑破坏我们的生活。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Not all historical buildings are attractive(并不是所有的历史建筑都有吸引力)”可知一些历史建筑不够有吸引力，故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt（破坏）the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too(的确，一些新建筑破坏了它们所在的区域，但一些老建筑也同样如此)”可知，新建筑破坏了它们所在的区域，而古建筑也是这样，可知作者认为一些历史建筑将他们生活的地方破坏了，故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change(我认为这很简单，因为人们天生保守，不喜欢改变).”可知，作者认为人们天生保守，不喜欢改变，根据第四段第二句“If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves(如果我们总是重现以前的样子，我们都还会住在洞穴里)”可知，如果建筑师不改变建筑风格，我们现在还住在山洞里面，虽然我们必须尊重人们作为建筑使用者的感受，但建筑师和规划师要选择新的建筑风格，以推进事物的向前发展，选项C. choose new architectural styles(选择新的建筑风格)符合语境，故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“Should we allow modem buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city(我们是否应该让现代建筑建在城市历史地段的老建筑旁边)?”作者提出问题，并对此展开论证，再根据最后一段最后一句 “Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, though that might be the more risky choice(因此，我反对复制以前的架构风格，而选择一些新颖和不同的风格，尽管这可能是更危险的选择).” 可知作者得出结论，认为现代建筑可以建在历史区域。故选D。
D
Every day, China imports (进口）different goods from countries across the globe. These imports also include solid waste, such as plastics, paper and metals. They mainly come from countries like the United States, the United Kingdom and Japan.
These goods will no longer be imported next year. China will ban (禁止) all imports of solid waste starting from Jan 1, 2021, said the Ministry of Ecology and Environment
Why does China import this waste? In 1980, China’s economy (经济) was gradually taking off because of the reform and opening — up policy. The country’s factories didn’t have enough raw materials at that time. Therefore. China began importing solid waste. After being processed, it can be turned into materials that are used to make other products.
For years. China has been the world’s largest importer of solid waste, with about 45 million tons arriving each year. Countries that send this waste to China pay about$ 25（163 yuan）to $50 per ton for recycling, China News Agency reported.
Although the waste has helped develop China’s economy, it has brought more risks than benefits. Waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried. The water used to wash the waste is allowed to flow into nearby rivers. This has polluted the air, soil and water, posing a risk to public health, China Daily reported.
China has made some efforts to ban waste since 2017. From 2017 to 2019, imports of solid waste fell by 68 percent, dropping from 42 million to 13 million tons, Xinhua reported.
12. After Jan 1, 2021, what will no longer be allowed in China?
A. Producing solid waste.
B. Buying solid waste from abroad.
C. Selling metals to other countries.
D. Importing plastic products from abroad.
13. What do we know from Paragraphs 3 and 4?
A. It costs very little money to recycle solid waste.
B. China has made a lot of money by importing waste.
C. Many factories used to use solid waste to make products.
D. About 45 million tons of waste are processed worldwide each year.
14. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How solid waste should be dealt with.
B. What risks solid waste brought to China.
C. What we can do to protect ourselves from waste.
D. How solid waste has helped China’s development.
15. According to the last paragraph, which word describes Chin’s efforts to ban waste?
A. Wasteful. B. Effective (有效的).
C. Challenging. D. Expensive.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。生态环境部表示，从2021年1月1日起，我国将禁止所有固体废物进口。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“China will ban all imports of solid waste starting from Jan 1, 2021, said the Ministry of Ecology and Environment (MEE).(生态环境部表示，从2021年1月1日起，我国将禁止所有固体废物进口)”可知，从2021年1月1日，从国外购买固体废物不被允许了。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The country’s factories didn’t have enough raw materials at that time. Therefore. China began importing solid waste. After being processed, it can be turned into materials that are used to make other products. (当时，这个国家的工厂没有足够的原材料。因此。中国开始进口固体废物。经过加工后，它可以转化为材料，用于制造其他产品)”可知，有些工厂在改革开放初期因缺乏原材料，曾通过进口固体废物经过处理作为原料进行生产。故选C项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“Although the waste has helped develop China’s economy, it has brought more risks than benefits. Waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried. The water used to wash the waste is allowed to flow into nearby rivers. This has polluted the air, soil and water, posing a risk to public health, China Daily reported.(尽管垃圾帮助了中国经济的发展，但它带来的风险大于收益。不能使用的废物要么烧掉，要么埋起来。用来洗垃圾的水被允许流入附近的河流。据《中国日报》报道，这已经污染了空气、土壤和水，对公众健康构成威胁)”可知，本段主要关于进口废物给中国带来什么样的风险。故选B项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“China has made some efforts to ban waste since 2017. From 2017 to 2019, imports of solid waste fell by 68 percent, dropping from 42 million to 13 million tons, Xinhua reported.(自2017年以来，中国在禁止垃圾方面做出了一些努力。据新华社报道，2017年至2019年，固体废物进口下降了68%，从4200万吨降至1300万吨)”可知，2017年以来，中国进口洋垃圾已大幅下降。由此可知，中国政府在禁止进口废物方面所做的努力是卓有成效的。故选B项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
Many animals move from one place to another at certain times of the year. ____16____ They migrate to find food, seek a partner, or in search of warmer weather. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature is that of the North American monarch butterfly.
Every autumn, millions of these beautiful insects begin a long and difficult journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4,000 kilometres south and find their way to California or Mexico. ____17____
A team of scientists has now found the answer. They have found out that the monarch is able to tell the time of day. ____18____ These two pieces of information — the time of day and the point where the sun is in the sky —allow the butterfly to determine the way to go. Eventually, it manages to reach the places where it will spend the winter.
The solution to the mystery of the monarch’s amazing ability comes at a time when it is in serious trouble. ____19____ Sadly, human activity is the main reason why the number of monarch butterflies is falling. In many of the places where the butterfly can be found, people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down trees and use chemicals that kill the plants that monarch caterpillars eat.
____20____ People have been recording its migration and make sure that there are enough plants for it to feed on. If this works, there may come a time when the number of monarch butterflies increases once again. The more we know about this lovely creature, the greater the chance it will survive and keep its place in the natural world for a long time to come.
A. They begin to return north in the spring.
B. This annual movement is called migration.
C. It uses its eyes to measure the position of the sun.
D. However, until recently no one knew how they did this.
E. The most common type of migration is seasonal migration.
F. Its population has crashed by as much as 90 per cent in the last few years.
G. The research on the monarch’s behavior has however led to a greater awareness of this creature.

【20题详解】
下文“People have been recording its migration and make sure that there are enough plants for it to feed on.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了近年来网络投票在中国流行起来，通过两个具体例子对这一现象进行了介绍。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意：近年来，网络投票在中国越来越受欢迎。有句意可知，此处表示“受欢迎的”，所以填形容词popular，作表语，被副词increasingly修饰。故答案为popular。
【37题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：人们不仅自己在网上投票，还敦促其他人为“最美老师”和“最可爱的宝宝”等比赛投票。由句意可知，该空指代People，所以用反身代词，即themselves。故答案为themselves。
【38题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：人们不仅自己在网上投票，还敦促其他人为“最美老师”和“最可爱的宝宝”等比赛投票。分析句子结构，空格位于介词for后， 该空填名词，作介词的宾语。compete的名词形式是competition，根据空后的具体例子like the “Most Beautiful Teacher” and the “Cutest Baby”，可知此处competition是可数名词，译为“比赛”， 要用复数，即competitions。故答案为competitions。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：高中生林悦受邀参加“最佳警官”评选，该评选由当地政府组织，旨在让公众更好地了解警官的日常工作。分析句子结构，本句话的谓语动词是is invited，所以该空要填非谓语动词。“最佳警官”评选活动和动词organize之间是被动关系，所以要用过去分词作定语，即organized。故答案为organized。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意：高中生林悦受邀参加“最佳警官”评选，该评选由当地政府组织，旨在让公众更好地了解警官的日常工作。根据空前have和空后 better understanding of 可知，该空填不定冠词a，构成固定短语：have a better understanding of，表示“对……有更好的了解”。故答案为a。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意：他们的光荣事迹深深打动了他。分析句子结构，此处应填副词，修饰动词is moved，deep的副词形式是deeply，表示“深深地”。故答案为deeply。
【42题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：吴华受叔叔邀请，在“未来歌手”中为表弟投票。分析句子结构，空格处是本句话的谓语动词。由空后关键词by可知，此处用被动语态，即be invited，空前已有is，所以空处填invited。故答案为invited。
【43题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：他的叔叔告诉他，如果他的表弟赢了，这个家庭将免费赢得一次海外旅行。分析句子结构，空处引导宾语从句，宾语从句中包含一个if引导的条件状语从句。从句中不缺任何成分和含义，所以此处填that。故答案为that。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意：他的叔叔告诉他，如果他的表弟赢了，这个家庭将免费赢得一次海外旅行。由句意可知，此处表示“免费”的含义，所以空处填介词for，构成固定短语for free。故答案为for。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意：吴华非常喜欢他的表弟，但他发现其他歌手的表现更好。投票还是不投票？由句意可知，空前描述吴华喜欢自己的表弟，空后描述其他歌手唱的更好，前后句意呈转折关系，所以该空填连词but。故答案为but。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One morning in the autumn when I was nine, Mom asked me to do some yard work with her. She had grown some potatoes in our yard that spring. It was time to harvest (收获). She wanted me to help her dig the potatoes. “Do I have to?” I said unhappily.
“Yes，you do,” Mom gave an answer. Then she added, “Change your attitude and it'll be easier.” “That's what you think,” I thought to myself. I sat on the sofa watch TV. Soon Mom wouldn't wait any longer and ordered me to follow her.
Worried that she'd be angry, I walked slowly out. I was unwillingly to move my feet—almost as though there were magnets (磁铁) fixed to them and the ground was metal. Or it felt like my socks were filled with wet sand. Or maybe my feet just stuck to the ground.
Following Mom's instructions, I picked up a shovel and started to work. I needed to be careful when digging up potatoes, otherwise I would damage them. The damaged potatoes would easily rot (腐烂). I pushed the shovel into the earth slowly and lifted the earth onto one side. When that was done, potatoes came out. Then I had to use my hands to free the potatoes from below. After that I placed them into a basket. It was really dirty and boring.
注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I was about to give up the work when Mom's words came to my mind.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I was about to give up the work when Mom’s words came to my mind. “Change your attitude and it’ll be easier.” Those words kept ringing in my ears. The dirt on my hands began to drop as if it was trying to take away my bad attitude. I went all out to work, singing and admiring each potato I dug up. Amazingly, I began to find harvesting potatoes interesting and meaningful. I said to Mom, “You were right. The work is easier.” She smiled and looked at me with approval. That day it really made sense for me and I carry those words in my mind until today. After all, work makes people happy.
