Three teachers were murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary School. They tried to save their students from a gunman who they recognized as the son of a kindergarten teacher there. The three heroes who were murdered were Dawn Hochsprung, 47, school psychologist, March Sherlach, 56, and 27-year-old Victoria Soto, a young first grade teacher.
When the gunman Lanza began firing at the school in suburban (郊区的) Newtown, Connecticut, several other teachers were in a meeting with Mrs Hochsprung and Mrs Sherlach. Some teachers dived under tables, but Mrs Hochsprung and Mrs Sherlach never hesitated. They ran into the hallway to pull their students into their office. They bravely faced the danger and were murdered by the gunman.
When the gunman broke into the classroom of Grade One, Miss Soto sacrificed herself to save her students — throwing her body in front of the young children.
A tale of heroism came from an eight-year-old student who said a teacher pulled him from the hallway as bullets rang out. “I saw some of the bullets going down the hall that I was right next to and then a teacher pulled me into her classroom,” the boy told CBS News. His relieved mother agreed, saying that the teacher saved her son’s life.

There were smiling children all the way, waving to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.
8. The author expected the train trip to be ________ .
A. adventurous B. pleasant C. exciting D. dull

【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是马来西亚一个村里的孩子会对着路过的火车微笑着挥手，这让作者十分感动。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.(我并不是特别喜欢这次长途火车旅行，我带了一打杂志来反复阅读。我看了看火车四周。没有一张熟悉的面孔。我叹了口气，坐下来读我的经济学。)”可知，作者预计这次火车旅行会很乏味，所以带了杂志去读，故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“There were smiling children all the way, waving to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.(一路上都有微笑的孩子，向陌生人挥手致意，鼓励他们冲向槟榔屿。通常全家人都站在家门口挥手微笑，就好像火车上的人是他们最喜欢的亲戚一样。这是马来西亚淳朴的村民。我感动了。)”可知，在火车旅行中令作者感动的是友好的乡村人民，故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段的“had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread(带了一打杂志来读又读)”可知作者认为自己不会喜欢这次长途旅行，所以买了一打杂志翻来覆去地读，因此划线词relish的意思是“喜欢”，和enjoy意思相近，故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.(一路上都有微笑的孩子，向陌生人挥手致意，鼓励他们冲向槟榔屿。通常全家人都站在家门口挥手微笑，就好像火车上的人是他们最喜欢的亲戚一样。这是马来西亚淳朴的村民。我感动了。)”与第四段的“Even the trees were smiling.(甚至树木也在微笑。)”可知文章主要讲述作者从看到马来西亚人在站台上微笑着对火车里的陌生人挥手后，心情由无聊、乏味变成高兴。可以看出，微笑能让人提起精神，即Smiles brighten people up，故选D。
D
Are you the only child in your family? If so, do you enjoy it or do you want more siblings（兄弟姐妹）?
On May 31, a key meeting of the Communist Party of China unveiled a policy that would allow all couples to have up to three children.
The move is expected to maximize the population's role in driving economic and social growth, since this is a critical time for China to transform the world's most populous country into a powerhouse（强国）with a quality workforce, according to the National Health Commission.
The three-child policy is also expected to prevent the decline in the nation's birthrate and address the challenge of a rapidly aging population, China Daily reported.
China's annual number of newborns has fallen for four years in a row. The country's total birthrate—the average number of children born to each woman—stood at 1.3 in 2020. The number is below the rate of 2.1 that would maintain a stable population, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.
The declining birthrate has also brought a sharp increase in the proportion of the population aged 60 or above, rising from 10.3 percent to 18.7 percent in the past decade. An increasingly elderly population will increase the cost of labor and the pressure on the social security net. It also means there will be a lack of young labor force. Therefore, it's not good for economic growth, according to Chen Youhua, a professor at Nanjing University.
In fact, the new birth policy is a step to further relax the family planning policy. The one-child policy was introduced in the 1970s and aimed to control the fast-growing population. Then in 2013, China allowed couples to have a second child if either parent was an only child, and in 2016, all couples were allowed to have two children.
However, not all people have shown their support for this latest policy. Many couples complained about the rising costs of raising a child. A netizen named Qinfeng commented, "High cost of education and both the physical and mental exhaustion stopped me from having more than one child." Also, many women are reluctant（不情愿的）to give birth because that could mean sacrificing their career prospects, according to Mu Guangzong, a professor at Peking University.
In that case, Mu noted that it is better to implement supporting measures with the three-child policy, such as more preferential（优惠的）policies for couples that would ease their parental burden.
12. What might NOT be the main cause for the new policy?
A. To increase the population's role.
B. To stop the declining birthrate.
C. To improve the child- care service system.
D. To address the challenge of the aging population.
13. What can be known from the text?
A. China's annual number of newborns has fallen for decades.
B. The government will protect the legal rights of women in employment.
C. Measures will be taken to improve the high-quality education.
D. The new policy allows couples to have up to three children.
14. Which of the following can replace the underlined word "implement"?
A. To carry out. B. To get along with.
C. To make use of. D. To have a command of.
15. What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A. To show his love of children healthcare.
B. To introduce the new family size policy.
C. To share his concerns about birthrate.
D. To emphasize the physical and mental exhaustion.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了即将实施的“三孩”政策。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段“The move is expected to maximize the population's role in driving economic and social growth, since this is a critical time for China to transform the world's most populous country into a powerhouse（强国）with a quality workforce, according to the National Health Commission.(国家卫生健康委员会表示，此举预计将最大限度地发挥人口在推动经济和社会增长中的作用，因为目前是中国将世界上人口最多的国家转变为拥有高素质劳动力的强国的关键时刻。)”、第四段“The three-child policy is also expected to prevent the decline in the nation's birthrate and address the challenge of a rapidly aging population, China Daily reported.( 据《中国日报》报道，三孩政策还有望防止中国出生率的下降，并应对人口快速老龄化的挑战。)”可知，选择项A、B、D在文中都提到过。选择项C“完善托儿服务体系”不是新政策的主要原因。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“On May 31, a key meeting of the Communist Party of China unveiled a policy that would allow all couples to have up to three children.( 5月31日，中共中央召开重要会议，公布了一项政策，允许所有夫妇最多生育三个孩子。)可知，政府即将采取新政策，允许一对夫妻生育第三胎。故选D。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词后半句“such as more preferential（优惠的）policies for couples that would ease their parental burden.(比如为夫妇提供更多的优惠政策，以减轻他们的负担。)”可知，为了实施三孩政策，需要配套相应的措施。所以implement应为“实施”之意。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了即将实施的“三孩”政策。所以可以推断，作者的写作意图是介绍一项（家庭规模）新政策。故选B。

Summer is the season of family travel. ___16___ Here are our top 5 things to teach your children before entering big crowds:
How Far They Can Go — ___17___ For young children, you should set a rule of always holding a parent’s hand. For older kids, you may be comfortable with a “I can always see you and you can always see me” rule.
To Call Your Real Name — Teach your children that you will find them, so it’s best if they stay in one place. What’s more, teach them to call out your full name instead of “Mommy” or “Daddy” to help you more easily find them.
How to Identify a “Safe Person” — Make sure your children know the best people to approach if they get separated from you. Employees working at the place you‘re visiting are generally always good, “safe people”. But what about places that may not have employees, like the beach? ___18___ Experts say that moms are often the most willing and best-equipped people to help kids.
What to say — ___19___ Remember that if your children do get separated from you, they will likely be panicked (恐慌), so don’t assume that they will know how to tell strangers that they are lost. Role-play getting lost and using simple sentences like, “I am lost” with your kids to help them know what to do if it actually happens.
Their Personal Information — Make sure your children know as much basic personal information as possible including their full names, parents’ full names and telephone numbers and the address.___20___
A. Teach your children to look for a mom with kids.
B. Sometimes it’s not hard to find a safe person in such places.
C. But do your kids know what to do if they get separated from you?
D. If your kids are too young to remember them, write them down!
E. It can be hard for people to help a lost child.
F. Tell your children to behave normally when they get lost.
G. It’s important to talk with your children about how close you expect them to stay to you.
【答案】16. C 17. G 18. A 19. F 20. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的是教育孩子在外出旅游时应注意的安全问题，以及与大人走散时的正确做法。
【16题详解】
下文“Here are our top 5 things to teach your children before entering big crowds”说明以下是在你的孩子进入人群前要教你的5件事。C项“But do your kids know what to do if they get separated from you?(但是你的孩子知道如果他们和你分开了该怎么做吗？)”能够承上启下，能够引入下文主题。故选C。
【17题详解】
本段主旨“How Far They Can Go”说明他们能走多远，本段讲的是让孩子知道与大人保持的距离范围。G项“It’s important to talk with your children about how close you expect them to stay to you.(和你的孩子谈谈你希望他们多亲近你是很重要的)”中的how close to stay和文中的how far they can go相对应。故选G。.
【18题详解】
下文“Experts say that moms are often the most willing and best-equipped people to help kids.(专家说，母亲通常是最有意愿和最有能力帮助孩子的人)”说明妈妈是最乐意提供帮助的最佳人选。A项“Teach your children to look for a mom with kids.(教孩子寻找一个带了孩子的妈妈)”符合题意。故选A。
【19题详解】
下文“Remember that if your children do get separated from you, they will likely be panicked (恐慌), so don’t assume that they will know how to tell strangers that they are lost.(记住，如果你的孩子和你走散了，他们很可能会惊慌失措，所以不要认为他们知道如何告诉陌生人他们迷路了)”说明孩子在失散后有可能会恐慌，不知道如何表达。F项“Tell your children to behave normally when they get lost.(告诉你的孩子迷路时要正常地表达)”符合题意。故选F。
【20题详解】
上文“Make sure your children know as much basic personal information as possible, including their full names, parents’ full names and telephone numbers and the address.”说明确保你的孩子知道尽可能多的基本个人信息，包括他们的全名，父母的全名，电话号码和地址。D项“If your kids are too young to remember them, write them down! (如果你的孩子太小记不住，把它们写下来)”中的them指的就是上文提到的基本个人信息。故选D。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了他们去夏威夷度假途中的经历以及到了主人家后受到的礼遇，主人热情招待他们，还在工作之余带他们参加了很多当地的活动。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意：在我们去那座房子的路上，雨下得如此大以至于我们不能不想还要多久才能到达那里。“so...that...”意为“如此……以至于……”，固定句型。故填so。
【42题详解】
考查固定搭配。本句运用了take...to do sth.，意为“花费……做某事”，故此处应填to get。
【43题详解】
考查介词。“a pack of”意为“一群……”。故填of。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：它们被他们的主人训练地很好，它们的主人在照顾这些动物方面很有经验。先行词为masters（主人），且从句缺主语。故关系词填who。
【45题详解】
考查一般过去时。句意：我们的主人跟我们分享了很多他们的经历并推荐了一些很好的吃饭、购物和参观的地方。“and”前后两个动作“shared”与“recommended”是并列关系，时态一致。故填recommended。
【46题详解】
考查名词。由空格前的不定冠词an与空格后的不定式to watch可以确定空格处应该填名词形式。故填competition。
【47题详解】
考查形容词。空格修饰名词stories，应用形容词形式，tradition形容词为traditional，故填traditional。
【48题详解】
考查副词。空格处修饰形容词popular，应用副词形式，huge的副词为hugely，故填hugely。
【49题详解】
考查一般过去时的被动语态。句意：我们被邀请去参加一场私人音乐会。由“on the last day of our week-long stay”可知，句子时态为一般过去时，用被动语态。主语为we，故填were invited。
50题详解】
考查非谓语动词。本句谓语动词为“were invited”，所以空格处动词listen应用非谓语动词形式。听音乐这个动作是由we发出的，所以选用现在分词形式。也可由and前后连接两个并列的结构这一规律解题，and后meeting interesting locals为分词形式，故空格处填listening。

My neighbor had a daughter named Emily, which was always playing with her friends and passing the time by sit at a computer. She was always thinking she was a genius in their studies. Although both of her parent kept persuading her to study, but she didn’t even listen to them. One day, her math teacher asks her a question in class. She was not able to answer it as she never practiced at home. Her classmates were all surprising that she didn’t give an answer to such simple question. She stood in silent and felt ashamed. From then on, she started studying hardly and she finally made great progress.
【答案】1.which→who
2.sit→sitting
3. their→her
4.parent→parents
5.删除but或者but→yet
6.asks→asked
7.surprising→surprised
8.such后加a
9.silent→silence
10.hardly→hard

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。一个名叫Emily的女孩认为自己有天赋所以不认真学习，导致学习跟不上。后来因为回答不上一个简单的数学问题决定努力学习，并取得进步。
【详解】1.考查定语从句。句意：我的邻居有一个女儿名叫Emily，她总是和朋友们一起玩，坐在电脑前打发时间。逗号后是修饰名词Emily的定语从句，从句缺少主语，先行词指人，应用关系代词who。故which改为who。
2.考查动名词。句意：我的邻居有一个女儿名叫Emily，她总是和朋友们一起玩，坐在电脑前打发时间。by是介词，其后应用sit的动名词形式作宾语。故sit改为sitting。
3.考查代词。句意：她总是认为在学习方面她是天才。结合语境可知，此处指在她的学习中，应用形容词性物主代词her修饰名词studies。故their改为her。
4.考查名词的数。句意：尽管她的父母一直劝她学习，但她不听他们的话。parent“父母之一”是可数名词，前有both，应用其复数形式。故parent改为parents。
5.考查连词。句意：尽管她的父母一直劝她学习，但她不听他们的话。although和but不能连用，但可以和yet连用。故删除but或but改为yet。
6.考查时态。句意：一天，她的数学老师在课堂上问她一个问题。结合语境和one day可知，此处讲述发生在过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故asks改为asked。
7.考查形容词。句意：如此简单的问题她没有回答上，这让所有同学都很吃惊。修饰人，表示人的主观感受，应用v-ed形式形容词，surprised“感到吃惊的”符合题意。故surprising改为surprised。
8.考查冠词。句意：如此简单的问题她没有回答上，这让所有同学都很吃惊。question“问题”是可数名词，此处表泛指，应用不定冠词修饰，且simple的发音是辅音音素开头，应用a。故在such后加a。
9.考查名词。句意：她安静地站着很尴尬。表达“安静地”应用in silence。故silent改为silence。
10. 考查副词。句意：从那以后，她开始努力学习，最终取得了很大进步。修饰动词studying表达“努力地”应用副词hard，hardly虽然也是副词，但意为“几乎不”，不合题意。故hardly改为hard。
