【解析】
【原文】W: Welcome to the Grand Canyon. I’m Emma, and I’m going to be your guide during this five-day hike. Let me give you a few safety tips. As you can tell, Arizona is one of the driest states in the USA. It’s going to be hot and sunny, so make sure you bring enough water before leaving.
M: How hot will it be?
W: Down in the canyon, it’s not unusual for the temperature to reach 40 C. Also, the rainy season is about to start, so there’s a high risk of thunderstorms later this week. In fact, there are about 25, 000 lightning strikes every year in the Grand Canyon.
M: Wow! What if we’re caught in a thunderstorm while we’re hiking?
W: If we hear thunder, we need to go to a safe place immediately. Don’t touch any metal railings or stand underneath the trees.
M: OK. Is there any chance of seeing wild animals when we go on our hike?
W: Yes, we’ll definitely see a few! Since you asked, let me take the opportunity to tell you about that. Keep a safe distance-the behaviour of wild animals can be very unpredictable. Stay 15 meters away from small animals, and 30 meters away from large ones.
M: I see. Any other tips?
W: Also, do not feed animals. They might start behaving aggressively towards you. It’s also bad for wild animals to become dependent on human beings.
M: I got it. I’ll follow these safety tips.

She had been on a walk with her dog near her home in Leyland, Lancashire. But she decided to try and find the source of the smell. The quick-thinking teenager looked around and finally spotted black smoke coming out of the window of an apartment on Hough Lane.
Lily ran home to wake her dad Mike Swanson and rang 911. As soon as they called the fire station, they ran back outside and saw people hanging out of the window. Mike grabbed his ladder and ran to the scene to help those trapped inside before the fire swept the whole building.

I carried the flame in 1984 in the Torch Relay as it made its way across the country to the Olympics in Los Angeles. I wasn’t an Olympic athlete. My dad did some voluntary work for the Olympics that year, for which I was able to carry the flame. Still it makes me realize that all sorts of honors can come our way unexpectedly.
On one May night, the flame had just begun its journey across America, covering around 15,000 kilometers. It inched its way along the coast from New York, each runner carrying it for a kilometer. Some of the runners were famous and admired. Others were common people like me and supporters of the event.
I had already. been sent a uniform and the official torch. I held it as I stood waiting in the dusk for the flame to arrive. Part of me wondered if it would even arrive. Would they ever find enough runners to cover that ambitious distance?
All at once it happened. A runner appeared and lit my torch. I was sent on my way. People lined the road, clapping and shouting as I passed, not for me, but for what I represented: the free expression of athletic skills and the celebration of talent, devotion, and discipline. Soon I passed the flame on to the next runner. I think we all have these opportunities to carry the torch of our faith and our values, because we can all be the light of this world. We might wonder if what we have to do or say or show will even matter. But we should step out, lit by our faith and values, and meet people waiting for us all along.
24. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?
A. The Torch Relay begun in Los Angeles.
B. Not all flame carriers are athletes.
C. The author’s experience made him stand out.
D. Great honor came to the author’s father.
25. How did the author feel when waiting for the flame to arrive?
A. Excited. B. Proud. C. Worried. D. Panicked.
26 Why did the people on the roadside clap?
A To celebrate the Olympic spirits. B. To encourage the runners.
C. To show their love for sports. D. To praise Olympic athletes.
27. What does the author call on people to do in the end?
A. Keep to their values. B. Attend the Olympics.
C. Let their light shine. D. Carry Olympic torches.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. C
【解析】

【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I think we all have these opportunities to carry the torch of our faith and our values, because we can all be the light of this world.

C
Do you ever talk to yourself? Although it’s not always a conscious habit, most of us practice self-talk on a daily basis, as away of guiding, motivating or supporting ourselves.
Over the years, research has shown that self-talk can increase productivity, motivation and confidence, and even help manage feelings. “There is solid evidence that self-talk strategies improve learning and performance,” according to sport psychologist Antonis Hatzigeorgiadis, who studies the phenomenon of self-talk.
He explains that there are generally three reasons why we practice self-talk: to instruct, to motivate or to evaluate. Instructional self-talk happens when we need to guide ourselves through a specific task, such as learning a new skill. Motivational self-talk usually is used when we want to prepare ourselves for something challenging; it can help to increase confidence. Evaluative self-talk mostly is related to past events or actions.
Hatzigeorgiadis stresses that if we want to use such self-talk to good advantage, it needs to be short, precise and, most of all, consistent. Of course, self-talk also can be ineffective and even detrimental if it’s not done right.
“It is a matter of personal preference or what works for each person; but generally, it is advised that self-talk be positively rather than negatively phrased and focus on what you should do rather than on what you should avoid,” Hatzigeorgiadis says. So, for example, it would be better to say “stay cool” instead of “don’t get upset”. Although both instructions convey the same meaning, you should use positive words rather than negative ones. In this way you can avoid ill results.
Another thing that can make a difference when practicing self-talk is the way you address yourself. According to research published in Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, using “you” rather than “I” when talking to yourself tends to be more effective. The researchers explain that when you think of yourself as another person, it allows you to give more objective and useful feedback.
28. What does the research say about self-talk?
A. It is a daily habit for everyone. B. It can make people feel better.
C. It may help strengthen memory. D. It is always an unconscious behavior.
29. What can be concluded from Hatzigeorgiadis’ explanation?
A. Self-talk occurs in different situations. B. Self-talk usually makes one brave.
C. Self-talk arises with various feelings. D. Self-talk is closely linked with a certain task.
30. What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Confusing. B. Useless. C. Harmful. D. Unbearable.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Self-talk: a close relation to the past B. Self-talk: a great way to avoid ill results
C. Self-talk: a useful tool to benefit our life D. Self-talk: a matter of personal preference
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了自言自语带来的好处、产生的主要原因以及自言自语时需要注意的问题。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Over the years, research has shown that self-talk can increase productivity, motivation and confidence, and even help manage feelings. (多年来,研究表明,自言自语可以提高工作效率、动力和信心,甚至有助于管理情绪。)”可知,自言自语可以改善心情,让人感觉更好。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“He explains that there are generally three reasons why we practice self-talk: to instruct, to motivate or to evaluate. Instructional self-talk happens when we need to guide ourselves through a specific task, such as learning a new skill. Motivational self-talk usually is used when we want to prepare ourselves for something challenging; it can help to increase confidence. Evaluative self-talk mostly is related to past events or actions. (他解释说,我们练习自言自语通常有三个原因:指导、激励或评估。指导性的自言自语发生在我们需要指导自己完成一项特定任务时,比如学习一项新技能。当我们想要为一些具有挑战性的事情做好准备时,通常会使用动机性的自言自语;它可以帮助增加自信。评价性的自言自语大多与过去的事件或行为有关。)”可知,Hatzigeorgiadis在第三段中解释了自言自语出现的三个主要原因及对应的情形,由此可推知自言自语会在不同的情形下发生。故选A。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。第四段第一句“Hatzigeorgiadis stresses that if we want to use such self-talk to good advantage, it needs to be short, precise and, most of all, consistent.(Hatzigeorgiadis强调,如果我们想要充分利用这种自言自语,它需要简短、准确,最重要的是,前后一致。)”讲述了从自言自语中获益的方式,即让自言自语具备三个特点:short(简短的) 、precise(准确的) 、consistent(连续的) 。再结合画线词所在句和第五段尾句“In this way you can avoid ill results. (这样你就可以避免坏结果。)”可知,画线词所在句表示如果自言自语的方式不对,自言自语可能无效甚至带来坏的影响。画线词detrimental与下文中的ill意思相近,所以选harmful“有害的”。 故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Over the years, research has shown that self-talk can increase productivity, motivation and confidence, and even help manage feelings. (多年来,研究表明,自言自语可以提高工作效率、动力和信心,甚至有助于管理情绪。)”及全文可知,文章介绍了自言自语带来的好处、产生的主要原因以及自言自语时需要注意的问题。文章的核心内容是如何从自言自语中受益,换言之:善加利用,自言自语是能让我们受益的好方法。所以“Self-talk: a useful tool to benefit our life(自言自语:有益于我们生活的有用工具)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选C。
D
Lake Baikal(贝加尔湖)is the biggest body of fresh water on Earth. It’s about 1.6km in depth and is also the deepest. Several unusual animals call it home, including the world’s only species of freshwater seal. There are a large number of Baikal seals, about 8, 000-10, 000. But the lake is nutrient-poor, so how they do so well has been a puzzle. A study conducted by Yuuki Watanabe of the National Institute of Polar Research, in Tokyo, suggests a possible answer.
Most seals eat fish. And Baikal seals do have needle-like teeth. But in 1982 researchers noted that they had some specialized comb-like teeth behind the needle-like ones. At the time, nobody knew what they were for. But Dr. Watanabe supposed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on other tiny creatures living in the lake.
Seals arrived in Baikal two million years ago, from the Arctic Ocean. So did some much smaller sea creatures, known as amphipods(片脚类动物). They have diversified into more than 340 native species. Sea creatures the size of seals would normally see amphipods to be too small to hunt. But Dr. Watanabe wondered if Baikal seals’ comb-like teeth might have evolved to enable the seals to hunt these tiny creatures to make them useful prey-just as some whales collect extremely small shellfish using comb-like structures. He and his colleagues therefore attached waterproof video cameras to a few seals to monitor what they were getting up to.
Scenes from the cameras showed that the seals were indeed pursuing the groups of amphipods at night. Dr. Watanabe estimated that each seal caught an average of 57 amphipods per dive and thus thousands of them a day. The needle-like teeth are not useless, for the seals do hunt fish as well. They compete with those fish for the amphipods, thus perhaps maintaining themselves in larger numbers.
32. Which aspect of Baikal seals remains unknown?
A. Why they live in Lake Baikal. B. How they got into Lake Baikal.
C. When they reached Lake Baikal. D. How they grow well in Lake Baikal.
33. What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Researchers. B. Comb-like teeth.
C. Baikal seals. D. Needle-like teeth.
34. Why did researchers attach video cameras to the seals?
A. To take control of their behaviour patterns.
B. To record how they coexist with amphipods.
C. To confirm if they live on small water creatures.
D. To find the similarities between seals and whales.
35. What message is conveyed in the last paragraph?
A. There is a sharply growing trend towards Baikal seals.
B. Baikal seals prefer hunting amphipods at night.
C. Needle-like teeth are of little use to Baikal seals.
D. Baikal seals feed on fish besides amphipods.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。贝加尔湖营养匮乏,但是海豹数量很大,这一直是个不解之谜。日本研究人员的一项研究也许能够揭开这一谜团。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But the lake is nutrient-poor, so how they do so well has been a puzzle.(但是湖水缺乏营养,所以它们是如何生存的一直是个谜。) ”可知,让人不解的是在湖中营养匮乏的情况下,贝加尔湖海豹怎么还活得这么好。故选D。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“But in 1982 researchers noted that they had some specialized comb-like teeth behind the needle-like ones.(但在1982年,研究人员注意到它们在针状牙齿后面有一些特殊的梳状牙齿。)”和“But Dr. Watanabe supposed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on other tiny creatures living in the lake.(但Watanabe博士认为,它们可能是为了适应以湖中其他微小生物为食。)”可知,Watanabe博士猜想海豹可能是用这些梳子状牙齿来捕食湖里的其他微小生物的。由此可推断they指代“梳子状牙齿”。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But Dr. Watanabe wondered if Baikal seals’ comb-like teeth might have evolved to enable the seals to hunt these tiny creatures to make them useful prey-just as some whales collect extremely small shellfish using comb-like structures. He and his colleagues therefore attached waterproof video cameras to a few seals to monitor what they were getting up to.(但Watanabe博士想知道,贝加尔湖海豹的梳状牙齿是否已经进化到能够捕食这些微小生物,使它们成为有用的猎物——就像一些鲸鱼用梳状结构收集极小的贝类动物一样。因此,他和他的同事们在一些海豹身上安装了防水摄像机,以监控它们在做什么。)”可知, Watanabe博士他们将摄像机绑在贝加尔海豹身上是为了确认这些海豹是否以湖中的微小生物为食。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The needle-like teeth are not useless, for the seals do hunt fish as well. They compete with those fish for the amphipods, thus perhaps maintaining themselves in larger numbers.(针状的牙齿并不是无用的,因为海豹也会捕食鱼类。它们与这些鱼类竞争片脚类鱼类,因此可能会保持更大的数量。)”可知,贝加尔海豹不仅捕食片脚类动物,还捕食鱼类。故选D。

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。
Have you ever wished you didn’t have to wake up early and go all the way to school? For 700,000 American kids, this wish comes true.___36___This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning. Regardless of what it is called, this idea may create an impression of a lonely kid reading pages of information on a computer screen rather than from a book or an image of another kid spending the day playing video games instead of learning mathematics or reading a book. Where online education is concerned, both of these are false! Actually, online learning simply means learning differently.
___37___Flexibility is the main advantage. Students can attend school wherever and whenever they desire. Homework can be turned in from anywhere the student has Internet access. Additionally, many online schools will allow students to work at their own pace.
Another advantage of online schooling is with the variety of courses. Most online schools teach the same basic classes like English, math, science, and history.___38___However, traditional schools are often unable to offer these types of classes if there are not enough students.
Online schools also have different types of learning tools for kids to use.

【答案】One possible version:
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, our daily life has changed greatly. Because of the necessity of keeping social distance, I no longer hang out with my friends as often as before. In fear of the spread of virus, I wear masks every day, which makes me feel distant from others.
In spite of the inconvenience, there is something I hope I can keep after the pandemic. Washing hands often is the first thing I should stick to, because personal hygiene is essential to our health. Second, stay with family often. During the lockdown period, I had no choice but to stay at home, which gave me the chance to enjoy quality time with my family.
I’m sure the pandemic will be a history, and only through our joint efforts can we fight against it. Among all the changes we have made, something beneficial needs to be passed down.

第二节 (满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was only a dollar. Dylan Belscher noticed it on the floor as he sat at the back of his English class in March. When the school day ended, Belscher wandered back to the classroom. The wrinkled old bill was still there. He could have pocketed it easily without thinking twice. But he picked it up and brought it to his English teacher. Katie Mattison. “It wasn’t my money,” Belscher said, which he saw as a sufficient explanation.
Mattison, 54, was a little surprised he should turn the dollar in, knowing a lot of people would have just kept it. She suggested that Belscher tape it to the whiteboard at the front of the classroom, where she always put lost things. Maybe the dollar was the money for lunch or bustickets for the student who lost it. “You can always tell when someone is looking for something,” Mattison said. A day or two later, the school shut down for the holiday break. Neither the teacher nor her student thought twice about the dollar.
Hunter Rose, then a senior, was in an English class after break when she spotted the dollar on the whiteboard. It was a bit of a mystery, Rose said. After class, she asked Mattison why it was there. The teacher was still waiting for the original owner to claim it, so she replied, “I don’t know.” Rose took the tape from Mattison’s desk and taped a second dollar to the board. That got it rolling.
The sight of the two dollar bills, side by side, awakened something in Mattison’s students. They started asking about the purpose of the money. to which Mattison always gave the same answer: She didn’t know. At that point, it was true. Several other students, feeling it interesting, taped up single dollar bills. Mattison—an experienced teacher who recognized a phenomenon in the making-wrote the initial of each student on each specific bill, and she started to leave the tape beside the whiteboard. The effort snowballed.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Even with no specific purpose, many students wanted to participate.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One morning, Mattison asked her students if they’d like to use the money for something good.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Even with no specific purpose, many students wanted to participate. Belscher said everyone decided Mattison had some unspoken goal and that there would be some mysterious point at which she would reveal the secret. They figured larger donations could help them get there faster. One student taped a $20 bill to the whiteboard. Another student dug into her birthday savings and taped up another $20. The amount continued to grow over several weeks until it reached $175. As for the original dollar, the person who lost it never came looking. That left Mattison to decide upon the best resolution.
One morning Mattison asked her students if they’d like to use the money for something good. They all agreed delightedly, waiting for Mattison’s plan. She continued to ask the teens whether they minded if she donated the dollars in their names to a non-profit for cancer cure. Their answer was to tape more money to push the amount up to $320. Mattison, choking back tears as she recalled the moment, carefully took the cash off the board and made a donation before the beginning of May. That was Saturday. By Monday afternoon, eight more dollars had been taped to the board.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Dylan Belscher捡到了一美元,在老师Mattison的建议下,他把钱贴到教室前面的白板上以便失主认领。Hunter Rose发现了白板上的一美元,觉得这是一件神秘的事,于是她在白板上又粘了一美元,这引起了更多学生的兴趣和参与的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“即使没有明确的目标,许多学生还是想要参与其中。”可知,第一段可描写学生们往白板上贴钱和他们这样做的心态,以及老师Mattison看到同学们的行为后是如何想、如何做的。
②由第二段首句内容“一天早上,Mattison问同学们是否想要用这些钱做些好事。”可知,第二段可描写同学们对老师提议的回应以及他们接下来的做法。
2.续写线索:更多的捐款——建议——同意——捐赠——再次有钱粘在白板上
3.词汇激活
行为类
①.透露:reveal/ let out
②.帮助:help/aid/assist
③.同意:agree/approve
情绪类
①.高兴地:delightedly/ joyfully
②.强忍泪水:choke back tears/ hold back tears
【点睛】[高分句型1]. Belscher said everyone decided Mattison had some unspoken goal and that there would be some mysterious point at which she would reveal the secret.(运用了宾语从句和介词at +which引导的定语从句)
[高分句型2]. As for the original dollar, the person who lost it never came looking.(运用了关系代词who引导的定语从句)
