The World Food Program won the Nobel Peace Prize for fighting hunger and seeking to end its use as “a weapon of war and conflict” at a time when the coronavirus pandemic has driven millions more people to the edge of starvation.
“We are sending a signal to every nation who raises objections to international cooperation,” committee chair Berit Reiss-Andersen said. “We are sending a signal to this type of nationalism where the responsibility for global affairs is not being faced.”
The Rome-based agency has brought aid to multiple crises, including Ethiopia’s hunger of 1984, the Asian tsunami of 2004 and the Haiti earthquake of 2010. It continued to bring assistance to the world’s most dangerous and unsafe places, from air-dropping food in South Sudan and Syria to creating an emergency delivery service that kept aid flowing even as pandemic restrictions prevented commercial flights taking off.
“Where there is conflict, there is hunger. And where there is hunger, there is often conflict,” Beasley said in a statement on the agency’s website. “Today is a reminder that food security, peace and stability go together.”
The Nobel Committee called on governments to ensure that WFP and other aid organizations receive the financial support needed to feed millions in countries such as Yemen, Congo, Nigeria and South Sudan. When the award was announced, Beasley was in Niger, following a visit to neighboring Burkina Faso — two countries in the Sahel region of Africa that he said is “under attack by extremists and climate extremes” and going through a “calamitous” time.
The award comes with a gold medal and a 10-milion krona ($1.1 million) cash prize that is dwarfed by the funding that WFP requires for its work. So far in 2020, the organization has received almost $ 6.4 billion in cash or goods.
24. Why was WFP awarded the Nobel Peace Prize?
A. It united global powers.
B. It brought peace to countries.
C. It helped solve global food problems.
D. It put an end to hunger and starvation.
25. Where was Beasley when WFP won the prize?
A. In Rome. B. In Niger. C. In Nigeria. D. In Burkina Faso.
26. What does the underlined word “calamitous” in paragraph 6 mean?
A. Sensitive. B. Common. C. Thrilling. D. Disastrous.
27. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The financial state of WFP.
B. WFP’s contribution to food security.
C. WFP’s winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
D. The significance of international cooperation.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. D 27. C
【解析】

Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century, the intangible cultural heritage known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed on by a young man. “As a descendant of people from Gaolou village, I have a responsibility to restore our ancestors’ art forms,” Chen Guorui, the world’s only inheritor (继承人) of this ancient art, told the Global Times.
Gaolou Mixian uses rice paste to glue together selected grains of transparent rice to create realistic figures or structures. It is a unique folk art that developed during the Qing Dynasty and reached its peak during the first half of the 20th century. Each household in Gaolou village would make rice structures that they put on display in their ancestral halls during the Chinese New Year, which attracted people from all sides.
However, due to the wet weather in southern China, these rice-made artworks would only last three to four months before losing their shape. It is for this reason that these works are not seen in museums in China. Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.
Chen found out about this after hearing one former resident express disappointment about its loss. Curious, he started to do research and tried out the methods he heard about from older people in the village. After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.
Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as creating some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice. Since 2017, people at home and abroad have taken an interest in this long-lost art form. To avoid being the last inheritor, Chen has been giving classes to some students at a primary school in Fuzhou with the support of local education authorities.
28. What do we know about Gaolou Mixian?
A. It uses rice as its main material.
B. It is stable in a wet environment.
C. It is a popular art form nationwide.
D. It was created for religious reasons.
29. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The charm of the artworks.
B. The disappearance of the art form.
C. The disappointment of the villagers.
D. The reason why the artworks lose their shape.
30. Which of the following can best describe Chen Guorui?
A. Courageous and cautious. B. Responsible and calm.
C. Cooperative and caring. D. Determined and creative.
31. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To praise Chen Guorui for his successful works.
B. To describe a popular folk art of a Chinese village.
C. To introduce a Chinese art form and its restoration.
D. To advocate the restoration of intangible cultural heritage.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，文章主要介绍了已经消失的非物质文化遗产高楼米线被一位年轻人重现并传承下去的故事。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Gaolou Mixian uses rice paste to glue together selected grains of transparent rice to create realistic figures or structures.(高楼米线用米糊把精选的透明米粒粘在一起，创造出逼真的人物或结构)”可知，高楼米线主要以大米作为原材料。故选A项。
【29题详解】
指代猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.(由于各种历史原因，高楼村的大多数人都没有传承这种艺术形式，导致它在近70年前就消失了)”可知，高楼米线这门艺术形式由于各种原因消失了，结合划线词所在句的句意“陈是在听到一名前居民对这样的损失表示失望后得知这一情况”可知，this指代上文提到的高楼米线的消失。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.(经过几个月的探索，陈终于成功完成了他的第一个作品)”及最后一段中“Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as creating some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice.(在过去的五年里，陈逐渐提高了他的技巧，甚至开始使用新技术，比如用彩色米粒创作一些彩色艺术品)”可知，陈国锐有决心且富有创意。故选D项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容，结合文章第一句“Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century, the intangible cultural heritage known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed on by a young man.(没有人能想到，失传半个多世纪的非物质文化遗产——高楼米线，会被一个年轻人修复并传承)”可知，文章主要介绍了已经消失的非物质文化遗产高楼米线被一位年轻人重现并传承下去，文章目的是介绍这一情况，故选C项。

A joint research team recently have developed a new electronic skin that is similar to human skin in strength, durability (耐用性) and sensitivity. The skin or e-skin may play an important role in next- generation personalized medicine, soft robotics and artificial intelligence.
“The ideal e-skin will mimic (模仿) the many natural functions of human skin, such as sensing temperature and touch, accurately and in real time,” says leading researcher Yichen Cai. However, making suitably flexible electronics that can perform such delicate tasks while also used repeatedly is challenging, and each material involved must be carefully engineered.
Most e-skins are made by putting an active sensor on the surface that attaches to human skin. However, the connection between them is often too weak, which reduces the durability and sensitivity of the material; otherwise, if it is too strong, it won’t be flexible enough, making it more likely to break the circuit.
“The landscape of skin electronics keeps shifting at a remarkable pace,” says Cai. “The discovery of 2D sensors has accelerated efforts to turn these quite thin but strong materials into functional, durable artificial skins.”
The new man-made skin built by the researchers could sense objects from 20 centimeters away. It could further make a quick response when touched in less than one tenth of a second. “It is a striking achievement for an e-skin to maintain toughness after repeated use,” said Yichen, “which mimics the softness and rapid recovery of human skin.”
This type of e-skin could monitor a range of biological information, such as changes in blood pressure, which can be detected from movements of arms and legs. This data can then be shared and stored on the cloud via Wi-Fi.
“One remaining problem to the widespread use of e-skins lies in mass production of high-resolution sensors,” adds group leader Vincent Tung, “However, the latest technology offers new promise.”
32. What promotes the development of a new e-skin?
A. Investment in education.
B. Research into human skin.
C. Advance in medical science.
D. The discovery of 2D sensors.
33. Which statement is true about the new e-skin?
A. It’s quite hard and tough. B. It’s flexible and sensitive.
C. It can store information. D. It can adjust blood pressure.
34. What may be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. Other problems of the new e-skin.
B. Wide applications of the new e-skin in many areas.
C. The process of producing high-resolution sensors on a large scale.
D. The technology boosting high-resolution sensors’ mass production.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Breakthrough in Hi-tech B. Man-made Skin, Improved
C. E-skin, a Promising Business D. The Widespread Use of E-skin
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. D 35. B
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第四段“The discovery of 2D sensors has accelerated efforts to turn these quite thin but strong materials into functional, durable artificial skins. (2D传感器的发现加快了将这些非常薄但坚固的材料变成功能性、耐用的人造皮肤的努力)”可知，2D传感器的发现促进了新型电子皮肤的发展。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A joint research team recently have developed a new electronic skin that is similar to human skin in strength, durability (耐用性) and sensitivity.(最近，联合研究小组开发出了在强度、耐久性、敏感性等方面与人类皮肤相似的新型电子皮肤)”可知，这种电子皮肤与人类皮肤一样灵活而敏感。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““One remaining problem to the widespread use of e-skins lies in mass production of high-resolution sensors,” adds group leader Vincent Tung, “however, the latest technology offers new promise.”(“电子皮肤广泛应用的一个遗留问题是高分辨率传感器的大规模生产，”小组负责人Vincent Tung补充说，“然而，最新技术提供了新的前景。” )”可推知，因为新技术让电子皮肤大规模生产变得可能，所以下面几段可能会讨论大规模生产高分辨率传感器的新技术。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A joint research team recently have developed a new electronic skin that is similar to human skin in strength, durability (耐用性) and sensitivity.(一个联合研究小组最近开发了一种新的电子皮肤，它在强度、耐用性和敏感性方面与人类皮肤相似)”可知，新的电子皮肤，它在强度、耐用性和敏感性方面与人类皮肤相似，在新技术的支持下，有希望大量生产。由此可知，本文最好的标题是B项“Man-made Skin, Improved (人造改良皮肤)”。故选B。
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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.____36____ Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.
People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public” at the expense of the “speaking”. ____37____ Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.
Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact, most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.____38____
Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.____39____ And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.
____40____ It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer.” On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever!” So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.
A Do the opposite.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如何成为优秀的公众演讲者的几点建议。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.”可知，有些人天生就有当众演讲的天赋，再根据下文“Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.”可知，你想成为一名优秀的公众演讲者吗？以下是一些你必须掌握的原则，F项（然而，大多数优秀的演讲者都是经过训练的）承上启下，既对应了上文提到的当众演讲这一话题，又引出了下文介绍的如何成为优秀的公众演讲者的建议，故选F。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the ‘public’ at the expense of the ‘speaking.”可知，很多时候，当你站起来演讲时，你关注的是“公众”，而不是“演讲”，再根据下文“Focus on the speaking.”可知，.专注于演讲，这说明此处是说要采用与前面提到的相反的做法——要专注于“演讲”，而不是“公众”，A项（做相反的事情）符合语境，故选A。
【38题详解】
根据上文“So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.”可知，所以，如果你犯了错误，除非是真正严重的错误，否则不要停止演讲，C项（你不需要为一个小失误道歉）承接上文，讲的都是如何处理演讲中的错误，故选C。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.”可知，你的目标不是成为一个完美的演讲者，B项（你想成为一名优秀的公众演讲者）承接上文，进一步解释你的目标是什么，故选B。
【40题详解】
根据本段内容，特别是“It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.”（与其让你的听众在座位上坐立不安地等着你的演讲结束，不如让他们有所期待）可知，本段主要讲的是演讲内容要简洁，不要过于冗长，所以D项（说到公共演讲，少即是多）适合作本段主题句，故选D。

Our school came up with an innovative program to promote a traditional value of honesty. We introduced an activity calling the “unsupervised examination” for some of the classes. That means during this examination, there is no teacher present to oversee the student. Before taking this examination, students need to sign up a letter of commitment. Students expressed that it’s good to feel trusted but they enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere in the examination. We also introduced what is called the “honest umbrella”. Printed on each umbrella was short statements about honesty and other values. At the end of the term, all the umbrellas were returned in one piece, none of them had been lost or damaged. The program works so well that we plan to introduce to another branch of our school. Build a culture of honesty needs the participation of everyone. We hope more teachers and students can get involved.
【答案】1. a→the 2. calling→called 3. students→students 4. 删除sign后的up 5. but→and
6. honest→honesty 7. was→were 8.them→which 9. introduce后加it 10. Build→Building
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一所学校提出创新计划，为促进传统的价值观——诚实。因此，该校引入了“无监督考试”的活动，在实践中取得了良好的效果。
【详解】1.考查冠词。句意：我们学校提出了一项创新计划，以促进诚实这一传统价值观。此处特指“传统价值观”，应用定冠词the。故将a改为the。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意：我们为某些课程引入了一项称为“无监督考试”的活动。call与activity是逻辑动宾关系，应用过去分词called，作后置定语。故将calling改为called。
3.考查名词复数。句意：这意味着在这次考试期间，没有老师在场监督学生。根据句意可知，此处指“很多学生”，应用名词复数形式。故将student改为students。
4.考查动词。句意：在参加本次考试之前，学生需要签署一份承诺书。sign up意为“注册，报名”，而sign作为及物动词，意为“签署”。根据后面搭配的宾语“a letter of commitment”可知，此处作及物动词。故删除sign后的up。
5.考查连词。句意：学生们表示，被信任的感觉很好，和他们很享受考试中轻松的气氛。“Students expressed that it’s good to feel trusted”和“they enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere in the examination.”之间是“并列关系”而非“转折关系”。故将but改为and。
6.考查名词。句意：我们还介绍了所谓的“诚实伞”。名词umbrella前面缺少“定语”，形容词honest意为“诚实的”，通常用来形容“人的品质”，所以不能说“伞是诚实的”。此处应用名词honesty作定语，修饰名词umbrella，表示其“作用、类别、用途等”。故将honesty改为honest。
7.考查主谓一致。句意：每把雨伞上都印有关于诚实和其他价值观的简短声明。分析句式可知，主语为“short statements about honesty and other values”是and连接的两个并列的主语，所以谓语动词应该用复数形式。故将was改为were。
8.考查定语从句。句意：学期结束时，所有的雨伞都被一件件归还，没有一件丢失或损坏。此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词是umbrellas，指物，在从句中作of的宾语，应用关系代词which引导。故将them改为which。
9.考查代词。句意：该计划运作良好，我们计划将其介绍给我们学校的另一个分校。introduce是“及物动词”，后面缺少宾语，且根据句意可知，此处的宾语是the program，应该用it来代指。故在introduce后加it。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意：建立诚信文化需要每个人的参与。我们希望更多的老师和学生能够参与进来。此处作主语，应用动词名词形式。故将Build改为Building。

【答案】One possible version
To whom it may concern,
I, as a devoted customer of your brand, feel bad to trouble you but I’m writing to make/file a dramatic complaint about the scarf I bought at your official website last month.
In the first place, the woolen scarf intended for my mother’s birthday is of the wrong color, which is supposed to be pink instead of blue. What’s worse, when checking it, I found a dirty mark on one end. What bothers me most is the bad smell it gives off. It is astonishing that such a designer scarf should neglect its quality control, which makes me extremely disappointed.
In view of the flaws listed above, I insist you give me a full refund or change a new one for me.
Thanks for your consideration and I’d appreciate it a lot if my demand could be met soon.
Looking forward to your timely reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
