World-famous music and movie star Olivia Newton-John has died in southern California. The highly awarded Newton-John sold more than 100 million record albums during her career. From 1973 to 1983, she was among the world’s most popular entertainers. She had 14 top 10 singles in the United States alone and won four Grammy Awards.
Newton-John is perhaps most remembered for her performance in 1978’s wildly popular musical movie Grease. She starred as a high school student Sandy, and was partnered with John Travolta. One song the two shared in the film, You’re the One That I Want, sold more than 15 million copies.
“I was afraid that at 30 I was too old to play a high school girl,” Newton-John told The Telegraph in 2017. “Everything about making the film was fun, but if I had to pick a favorite moment, it was the transformation from what I call Sandy 1 to Sandy 2. I got to play a different character and wear different clothes, and when I put on that tight black clothes to sing You’re the One That I Want, I got a very different reaction from the guys on the set.”
Physical, Newton-John’s biggest single, came out in 1981. The energetic dance song was hugely popular, holding Number One position on Billboard’s hit list for 10 weeks straight. Later, the music industry magazine named Physical the Song of the Year. A video linked to the song won a Grammy Award as well.
In 1992, Newton-John faced loss and sickness. Her father died and she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Then Newton-John created an album, Gaia: One Woman’s Journey, about her battle with cancer and the loss of her father.
Newton-John married John Easterling in 2008. She became involved in several causes serving as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Environment Programme and a national spokeswoman for the Children’s Health Environmental Coalition. She also founded the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Center in Melbourne, Australia.
4. What is Sandy in paragraph 2?
A. A film director. B. A music teacher.
C. A film character D. A music composer.
5. Why did Newton-John worry when playing in the film?
A. Because of her age. B. Because of her gender.
C. Because of her acting skills. D. Because of her tight clothes.
6. What made Newton-John create the album Gaia: One Woman’s Journey?
A. Her film. B. Her dance songs.
C. Her sufferings. D. Her husband’s encouragement.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Newton-John’s physical pain.
B. Newton-John’s social activities.
C. Newton-John’s happy marriage.
D. Newton-John’s artistic achievements.

When robots appear to engage with people and display human-like emotions, people may think of them as capable of “thinking”, or acting on their own beliefs and desires rather than their programs, according to the research published by the American Psychological Association.
“The relationship between human-like shape, human-like behavior and the tendency to owe independent thought and intentional behavior to robots is yet to be understood,” said study author Agnieszka Wykowska, PhD, a principal investigator at the Italian Institute of Technology. “As artificial intelligence increasingly becomes part of our lives, it is important to understand how interacting with a robot that displays human-like behaviors might cause higher likelihood of attribution of intentional agency to the robot.”
Across three experiments involving 119 participants, researchers examined how individuals would see a human-like robot, the iCub, after socializing with it and watching videos together. Before and after interacting with the robot, participants completed a questionnaire that showed them pictures of the robot in different situations and asked them to choose whether the robot’s motivation in each situation was mechanical or intentional.
The researchers found that participants who watched videos with the human-like robot were more likely to rate the robot’s actions as intentional, rather than programmed, while those who only interacted with the machine-like robot were not. This shows that mere expo-sure to a human-like robot is not enough to make people believe it is capable of thoughts and emotions. It is human-like behavior that might be crucial for being deemed as an intentional agent.
According to Wykowska, these findings show that people might be more likely to believe artificial intelligence is capable of independent thought when it creates the impression that it can behave just like humans. “This could inform the design of social robots of the future,” she said.
8. What were participants asked to do in the experiment?
A. Behave like a robot.
B. Complete a questionnaire.
C. Show pictures of the robot.
D. Watch the behavior of the iCub.
9. What does the underlined word “deemed” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Believed. B. Persuaded. C. Performed. D. Advocated.
10. What could the findings be applied to?
A. Addressing some technique problems.
B. Creating social robots just like humans.
C. Revealing artificial intelligence industry.
D. Guiding the design of future social robots.
11. What would be a suitable title for the text?
A. Human-like robots can interact with humans
B. Human-like robots can behave just like humans
C. Artificial intelligence has become part of our lives
D. Human-like robots may be believed to have mental states
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】

【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段“This shows that mere expo-sure to a human-like robot is not enough to make people believe it is capable of thoughts and emotions.”（这表明，仅仅同与人相似的机器人接触不足以让人们相信它有思想和情感。）和划线词所在句“It is human-like behavior that might be crucial for being deemed as an intentional agent.”（类似人类的行为可能是被信为有意行为的关键。）可知，划线词与上一句中“believe”意思相近。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““This could inform the design of social robots of the future,””（这可能为未来社交机器人的设计提供信息。）可知，研究结果可能被应用于对未来社交机器人设计的指导上。故选D。

A method to transform a commonly thrown-away plastic to a resin(树脂) used in 3D printing could allow for making better use of plastic waste. A team of Washington State University researchers developed a simple and efficient way to transform polylactic acid (PLA) (聚乳酸),a bio-based plastic used in products such as filament,plastic silverware and food packaging to a high-quality resin.
“We found a way to immediately turn this into something that’s stronger and better, and we hope that will provide people with the inspiration to upcycle this stuff instead of just throwing it away,” said Yu-Chung Chang, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering and a co-corresponding author on the work. “We made stronger materials just straight out of trash. We believe this could be a great opportunity.”
Although it’s bio-based, PLA, which is categorized as a number 7 plastic, can float in fresh or salt water for a year without degrading. It is also rarely recycled because like many plastics, when it’s melted down and re-formed, it doesn’t perform as well as the original version and becomes less valuable.
“It’s biodegradable and compostable, but once you look into it, it turns out that it can take up to 100 years for it to rot away in a landfill,” Chang said. “In reality, it still creates a lot of pollution. We want to make sure that when we do start producing PLA on the million-tons scale, we will know how to deal with it.”
While the researchers focused on PLA for the study, they hope to apply the work to poly-ethylene terephthalate(PET)(涤纶树脂), which is more common than PLA and has a similar chemical structure and presents a bigger waste problem. They have filed a temporary patent and are working to further improve the process. The researchers are also looking into other applications for the upcycling method.
12. What can the method help do according to paragraph 1?
A. Solve financial crisis.
B. Change waste into wealth.
C. Control plastic production.
D. Determine 3D printing skills.
13. What does Yu-Chung Chang think of the method?
A. Unrealistic. B. Imaginable. C. Promising. D. Common.
14. Which of the following is a feature of number 7 plastics?
A. They are hard to break down.
B. They are easy to deal with.
C. They are invaluable to recycle.
D. They are difficult to sort out.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Applications of an upcycling method.
B. 3D printing with newly found materials.
C. A new way to turn plastic into valuable products.
D. Some better methods to break down different plastics.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了华盛顿州立大学的一组研究人员开发了一种简单而有效的方法，将塑料垃圾中的聚乳酸(PLA)转化为高质量的树脂从而转化为用于3D打印的树脂。

13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“We made stronger materials just straight out of trash. We believe this could be a great opportunity.(我们直接用垃圾做了更坚固的材料。我们相信这将是一个很好的机会。)”可知，Yu-Chung Chang认为这种方法是有前途的。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Although it’s bio-based, PLA, which is categorized as a number 7 plastic, can float in fresh or salt water for a year without degrading. It is also rarely recycled because like many plastics, when it’s melted down and re-formed, it doesn’t perform as well as the original version and becomes less valuable.( PLA虽然是生物基的，但被归类为7号塑料，可以在淡水或盐水中漂浮一年而不降解。它也很少被回收，因为像许多塑料一样，当它被熔化和重新成型时，它的性能不如最初的版本，变得不那么有价值。)”可知，7号塑料很难被降解。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“A method to transform a commonly thrown-away plastic to a resin(树脂) used in 3D printing could allow for making better use of plastic waste.( 一种将常见的丢弃塑料转化为用于3D打印的树脂的方法可以更好地利用塑料垃圾。)”以及通读全文可知，文章讲述了华盛顿州立大学的一组研究人员开发了一种简单而有效的方法，将塑料垃圾中的聚乳酸(PLA)转化为高质量从而转化为用于3D打印的树脂。故C选项“A new way to turn plastic into valuable products.(一种将塑料转化为有价值产品的新方法。)”适合作为标题，概括全文。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国关心的民生项目——南水北调中工程。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：另一个从长江引水到汉江的工程将于今年六月开工。空前有介词of，故空处动词需要变成动名词的形式；提示词为channel表示“输送”、“传送”，动名词形式为channeling。故填channeling。
【42题详解】
考查动词。句意：另一个从长江引水到汉江的工程将于今年六月开工。分析句子可知，空处为句子的谓语动词，主语为Another project，为单数，begin常用一般现在时表将来，用于表示在时间上确定好或安排好的事情，故谓语动词需要用第三人称单数的形式。故填begins。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意：该项目总投资五百九十八亿元，是南水北调中线工程的补充。根据空前形容词total和空后介词of可知，空处需要填名词；invest意为“投资”，是动词，其名词形式为investment。故填investment。
【44题详解】
考查不定式。句意：新项目有望提高汉江流域的水资源分配能力，进一步确保干旱的北方地区的供水。固定短语be expected to do sth.意为“有望做某事”，故空处需要用到动词不定式的形式。故填to enhance。
【45题详解】
考查动词。句意：新项目有望提高汉江流域的水资源分配能力，进一步确保干旱的北方地区的供水。根据空前不定式to表目的可知，空处需要填动词；far为形容词，表示“远的”，其动词形式为further，表示“进一步”，符合句意。故填further。
【46题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：南水北调工程通过中线、东线和西线，将中国水资源丰富的南方的水调入干旱的北方。固定短语transfer A to B意为“把A转移到B”，符合句意。故填to。
【47题详解】
考查代词。句意：中线是最引人注目的一条，因为它的角色是为中国首都提供水源。空后为名词role，意为“角色”，故空处需要填形容词性物主代词指代上文的The middle route。its意为“它的”，符合句意。故填its。
【48题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：今年前五个月，新开工水利项目一万零六百四十四个，估值四千一百四十四亿元。分析句子成分可知，后文started为谓语动词，故空处需要填非谓语的形式；主语10,644 new water projects和动词value“估价”为动宾关系，故要用过去分词形式表被动。故填valued。
【49题详解】
考查冠词。句意：今年前五个月，新开工水利项目一万零六百四十四个，估值四千一百四十四亿元。结合句意可知，想表达“今年前五个月”需要用到the + first +数词+名词复数的形式，定冠词不能省略。故填the。
【50题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：据官方数据显示，今年我国水利工程建设投资将超过八千亿元。分析句子结构可知，空处需要填关系词引导定语从句，先行词为The money，从句中缺少主语，故需要用到关系代词that或者which。故填that/which。

Last year we went on an European culture tour. I, together with my friends, were looking forward to visiting the University of Greenwich. So we reached the River Thames on the first day. To our joys, we met with a couple of old professors who had been traveling around Britain a few days. We felt so excited which we couldn’t help sharing our travel experiences with them. We visited France and Italy with them and we also had a wonderfully picnic together. As we were expected, they planned to leaving first. We offered to help carry their packs to the airport and saw him off. They were grateful to us. What meaningful and impressive the trip was!
【答案】1. an→a
2. were→was
3. joys→joy
4. Britain后加for
5. which→that
6. wonderfully→wonderful
7. 去掉were
8. leaving→leave
9. him→them
10. What→How
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者回忆了去年进行的一次欧洲文化之旅，路上遇到了几个老教授，于是一起参观了法国和意大利。
【详解】1. 考查冠词。句意：去年我们进行了一次欧洲文化之旅。European的音标第一个音素/j/为辅音，应用a。故将an改为a。
2. 考查主谓一致。句意：我和我的朋友们都期待着参观格林威治大学。短语together with遵循“就远原则”，即谓语动词与前面主语一致，前面主语为I；文章是在回忆一次旅行，用一般过去时态，故谓语动词需要用was。故将were改为was。
3. 考查固定短语。句意：令我们高兴的是，我们遇到了几个在英国旅行了几天的老教授。短语to one’s joy为固定搭配，joy不加s。故将joys改为joy。
4. 考查介词。句意：令我们高兴的是，我们遇到了几个在英国旅行了几天的老教授。前文谓语动词为had been traveling，为过去完成进行时态，故后文需要有“for+一段时间”表示动作持续了这么长一段时间。故在Britain后加for。
5. 考查状语从句。句意：我们感到很兴奋，以至于我们忍不住和他们分享我们的旅行经历。so... that...意为“太……以至于”为结果状语从句固定句型，不可以用which替代。故将which改为that。
6. 考查形容词。句意：我们和他们一起参观了法国和意大利，我们还一起进行了一次美妙的野餐。根据前文冠词a和后文名词picnic“野餐”可知，这里需要用形容词形容名词；文中wonderfully为副词，其形容词形式为wonderful。故将wonderfully改为wonderful。
7. 考查动词语态。句意：正如我们所料，他们计划先走。根据后文they planned可知，是老教授们要先走，所以应该是“正如我们所料”用主动，而不是“正如我们被他们料到”，即“正如他们所料”，需要把被动改为主动。故去掉were。
8. 考查不定式。句意：正如我们所料，他们计划先走。固定短语plan to do sth.表示“计划做某事”，后接动词需要接动词原形。故将leaving改为leave。
9. 考查代词。句意：我们主动提出帮他们把行李送到机场，并为他们送行。根据上文可知，老教授有几位，并且离开的也是“they”，所以在这里也是“为教授们送行”，应用them作宾语。故将him改为them。
10. 考查感叹句。句意：这次旅行多么有意义和令人印象深刻啊。结合句子可知，中心词为形容词meaningful and impressive，应用how引导感叹句。故将What改为How。

【答案】The survey our foreign teacher asked us to make on how students in our class improve their English writing ability after class shows that most students prefer to recite different writing models rather than improve their English. Reciting typical writing models is of great use to get a high mark in a short time, but actually it may well limit the ability of writing.
In my opinion, you are supposed to read more, which is a good way to expose and get more information, to improve your writing ability. In addition, try to listen and speak more English after class. Speaking, listening and writing influence and promote each other, so creating a good English environment really contributes to the improvement of writing.
In short, only by combining the four basic English skills together can we improve our writing skills.
【解析】
【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生就外教要求对学生在课外如何提高英语写作能力方法的调查结果进行陈述，并写出相关的评论和建议。
