During 20 years of working at his family’s supermarket in Pollenca on the Spanish island of Mallorca, Jose Luis-Reig, known as Pep, never gave a thought to the academic (学术的) world. It was only when visiting the classrooms of mainland universitates with his two teenage daughters that he suddenly felt himself at home among the books and atmosphere of learning.
After school Pep had intended to do a degree in biology at Barcelona University but had been called on to help run the family business instead.
But the question of “What’s my role in life?” still kept coming back to him. It wasn’t until a year later that the answer suddenly struck him. When he was at school, other children would come to him with their problems. He became famous and so was invited onto local radio, where the interviewer said, “You’re like a young psychologist.”
Pep was no stranger to change. The family business had originally been a sawmill (锯木厂), but when Pep, then 27, was asked if he wanted to take over, he decided to transform the mill into the town’s first supermarket.
One day in the shop, what the radio presenter said came back to him. After running the idea past his family, he applied to university in Palma to study psychology and, aged 46, was accepted.
“I had to get used to being much older than all the other students,” he says. “In fact, I was older than my professor. But I believe disadvantages can always be advantages. And I ended up helping the others because I’d had more life experience that carries psychological impact, which could reflect classroom theory.”
Pep came top of his year and impressed his tutors so much that he was offered a job researching and teaching, which he still does while studying for a master’s in neuropsychology. Now 52, and still in the job, he adds, “My only regret is not having done it earlier. ”
29. What can we know about Pep in the first paragraph?
A. He felt relaxed in the school atmosphere.
B. He supported his daughters by selling books.
C. He visited his daughters’ universities frequently.
D. He never quit the thought of going to mainland colleges.
30. What was Pep’s answer to the question of his role in life?
A. To win fame.
B. To study psychology.
C. To take over his family business.
D. To cure children of their problems.
31. What inspired Pep to apply to the university in Palma at 46?
A His goal of a better career.
B. The radio presenter’s comment.
C. His classmates’ encouragement.
D. The proposal of the family members.
32. Which quality might have helped Pep a lot in the university?
A. Honesty. B. Self-control.
C. Sensitivity. D. Optimism.
【答案】29. A 30. B 31. B 32. D
【解析】

【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It wasn’t until a year later that the answer suddenly struck him. When he was at school, other children would come to him with their problems.

【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“He became famous and so was invited onto local radio, where the interviewer said, ‘You’re like a young psychologist.’(他声名鹊起，因此被邀请到当地电台，采访者说：‘你就像一个年轻的心理学家。’)”以及第五段中的“One day in the shop, what the radio presenter said came back to him.(有一天在商店里，电台主持人说的话又回到了他脑海中)”可知，在接受电台采访时，记者说Pep很像一位年轻的心理学家，Pep想到这句评论后才申请读大学。故选B。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“But I believe disadvantages can always be advantages. And I ended up helping the others because I’d had more life experience that carries psychological impact, which could reflect classroom theory.(但我相信缺点可以是优势。我最终帮助了其他人，因为我有更多的生活经验，这些经验会带来心理影响，这可以反映课堂理论)”可知，Pep进入大学学习时，年龄很大，但是Pep却把这种劣势当成优势，可以用自己的生活经验帮助其他人，这些生活经验的作用在课堂理论上得以反映。由此推知，Pep在上学期间的乐观态度帮助他很多。故选D。
C
When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline(座机)?
These days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.
Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones according to a survey. Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket -19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies (紧急 事件). I think my home falls into that kind.
More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor(因素)-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who’ve perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn’t the only factor; I’d say it’s also to do with the makeup of your household.
Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
How attracted are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?
33. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?
A. Their target users.
B. Their wide popularity.
C. Their major functions.
D. Their complicated design.
34. What does the underlined word “concede” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Admit. B. Argue.
C. Remember. D. Comment.
35. What can we say about Baby Boomers?
A They like smartphone games.
B. They enjoy guessing callers’ identity.
C. They keep using landline phones.
D. They are attached to their family.
36. What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?
A. It remains a family necessity.
B. It will fall out of use some day.
C. It may increase daily expenses.
D. It is as important as the gas light.
【答案】33. B 34. A 35. C 36. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。当几乎每个人都有手机的时候，为什么超过一半的澳大利亚家庭还在为固定电话付费？文章分析了其原因。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“These days you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn’t own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.(如今，在澳大利亚，你很难找到15岁以上没有手机的人。事实上，很多年幼的孩子口袋里都有一个。实际上，每个人都可以在任何地方、任何时间拨打和接听电话。)”可知，第二段主要告诉我们如今手机广泛流行，故选B。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子“Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it’s not really necessary and they’re keeping it as a security blanket(在那些仍然使用固定电话的澳大利亚人中，三分之一的人concede没有必要使用固定电话，他们保留固定电话是为了安全起见)”可知，那些仍然使用固定电话的澳大利亚人中，有三分之一的人说他们保留固定电话只是为了安全起见，这说明他们承认使用固定电话是没有必要的，由此可知，画线单词concede意为“承认”，与A项“Admit.(承认)”意思一样，故选A。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Age is naturally a factor(因素)-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who’ve perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. (年龄自然是一个因素——只有58% 的 Y一代人仍然时不时地使用固定电话，相比之下，婴儿潮一代中有84% 的人50年来可能一直使用同一个家庭电话号码。)”可知，婴儿潮一代一直用固定电话。故选C。
【36题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“How attracted are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?(你对座机有多感兴趣？他们还要多久才能走上煤气路灯和早晨送牛奶的道路？)”可知，煤气路灯和早晨送牛奶如今已经消失了，由此可推知，座机也会像煤气路灯和早晨送牛奶一样停止使用，故选B。
D
More than 90 percent of global trade today is carried out through ships — about 53,000 business ships trading internationally. That number seems to increase quickly. A 2019 study, led by researchers at McGill University in Canada, has predicted (预测) an increase in ocean traffic of anything between 240 and 1209 percent by 2050. In preparation for this increase, scientists and engineers around the world are dealing with the difficult question of how to navigate (航行) more safely.
On the west coast of the US, one such group has a single target-whales. The region is home to not only busy international ports but also the rich feeding grounds of blue, humpback and fin whales. As a result of crossovers, ship strikes are thought to be one of the leading causes of death for whale populations.
Dr Briana Abrahms, a research ecologist at NOAA Fisheries’ Southwest Fisheries Science Center, is developing an app that will allow managers and ship members to be alarmed to the possible location of blue whales. It is based on the group’s new model which predicts whale movements based on the oceanographic conditions. “Ocean conditions can change on a daily basis,” Abrahms explains. “We know what conditions the whales like, so every single day we can look at where those conditions are and predict where the whales will go.”
Of course, knowing where the whales are is hardly effective if captains ignore the information. Abrahms admits that voluntary slow-down plans for large ships on the east coast of the US (slower ships being less likely to kill whales) have seen low levels of obedience (遵守). Her hope is that more accurate data will encourage owners and managers to respond. “Part of the reason we think for the low obedience is that there isn’t much confidence among the shipping industry. If you say ‘slow down between July and November’, the shipping industry doesn’t believe that there is actually a whale there. By making it more accurate in predicting whales, we’re hoping our app will help,” Abrahms said.
37. Why does the author mention the 2019 study in Paragraph 1?
A. To tell the importance of shipping industry.
B. To show the fast increase in global trade.
C. To predict ocean traffic in the following years.
D. To explain the necessity of ensuring sailing safety.
38. What’s the app designed for?
A. Counting the number of whales.
B. Telling possible locations of whales.
C. Predicting the consequence of ship strikes.
D. Forecasting the oceanographic condition.
39. What’s Abrahms attitude towards the present slow-down plans?
A. Critical. B. Positive.
C. Concerned. D. Unclear.
40. What is the text mainly about?
A. Ways to avoid crossovers between ships and whales.
B. Methods of predicting severe weather.
C. Importance of rescuing wildlife in the sea.
D. Challenges of keeping a correct voyage.
【答案】37. D 38. B 39. C 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了随着海洋交通量的增长，确保海洋航行安全成为必要之举。美国西海岸既是国际港口，也是许多鲸鱼的栖息地，船只与鲸鱼的交汇常常造成鲸鱼的死亡，因此研究人员正在研究一款应用程序，更为精准地预测鲸鱼出没的位置，将位置信息告知船只人员，以确保船只减速前行从而确保鲸鱼的安全。

In preparation for this increase, scientists and engineers around the world are dealing with the difficult question of how to navigate (航行) more safely.(2019年，由加拿大麦吉尔大学的研究人员领导的一项研究预测，到2050年，海洋交通量将增加240%到1209%。为了应对这种增长，世界各地的科学家和工程师都在研究如何更安全地航行的难题)”可知，2019年的研究预测了未来海洋交通量的大幅增长，因此很有必要确保海洋航行的安全。由此推知，提到2019年的研究是为了解释确保海洋航行的安全的必要性。故选D项。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Dr Briana Abrahms, a research ecologist at NOAA Fisheries’ Southwest Fisheries Science Center, is developing an app that will allow managers and ship members to be alarmed to the possible location of blue whales.(美国国家海洋和大气管理局渔业西南渔业科学中心的研究生态学家Briana Abrahms博士正在开发一款应用程序，可以让管理人员和船员对蓝鲸可能的位置发出警告)”可知，这款应用程序是为了告知鲸鱼可能的位置。故选B项。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Abrahms admits that voluntary slow-down plans for large ships on the east coast of the US (slower ships being less likely to kill whales) have seen low levels of obedience.(Abrahms承认，美国东海岸的大型船只自愿减速计划（速度较慢的船只不太可能杀死鲸鱼）的遵守程度很低)”可知，当前的减速计划执行的效果不佳，因此伤害甚至杀死鲸鱼的可能性仍然很高。由此推知，Abrahms对当前的减速计划会感到担忧。故选C项。
【40题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了随着海洋交通量的增长，确保海洋航行安全成为必要之举。美国西海岸既是国际港口，也是许多鲸鱼的栖息地，船只与鲸鱼的交汇常常造成鲸鱼的死亡，因此研究人员正在研究一款应用程序，更为精准地预测鲸鱼出没的位置，将位置信息告知船只人员，以确保船只减速前行从而确保鲸鱼的安全。由此可知，A项“避免船只和鲸鱼交汇的办法”符合文章大意。故选A项。
第二节(共5小题;每题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)
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。
Getting enough sleep helps you focus, remember information and strengthen your immune system. But when it comes to children, they will not think about these benefits of quality sleep. Many parents struggle to get their school-aged children, from ages five to 11, to willingly and peacefully wind down for bed.____41____, the tips on forming healthy sleeping habits can benefit your entire family.
____42____
Building healthy sleeping habits starts with creating a routine for the entire family. This could include turning off screens, spending quality time with your children, and brushing your teeth and saying goodnight. The benefits of having a consistent (一致的) bedtime schedule go beyond getting enough hours of sleep.
Store away anything with a screen
What may also distract your kids from falling asleep is bright light from electronic devices. You may have heard of melatonin (褪黑素), your sleep hormone. ____43____ — and doesn’t allow the melatonin to make you feel sleepy. So turning devices off — TVs, iPads, phones, all of it — at least an hour before bedtime is ideal.
Consistency is the magic word
For anyone hoping to get better sleep, it all comes down to consistency. So if your family is trying out a new routine, “it usually takes being consistent for a period of three to four days before you’ll see that change in behavior in the child.” Creating an ideal sleep environment can also help kids keep a consistent bedtime. Experts recommend using blackout curtains to set up a bedroom that is pitch black, if necessary. ____44____. These conditions can’t be met in every home, but even a few adjustments could make a huge difference in your family’s well-being.
Be prepared for the tricks
When it gets closer to bedtime, it’s important to watch out for your little one’s cues and body language. If you notice them getting tired, do not wait to start your bedtime routine. If you wait too long, your kids will no longer feel sleepy but still feel very tired. You’d better create a bedtime checklist that includes everything your family does before going to bed. On this list, you can also write down anything that your child typically requests like water, story time or hugs and kisses. ____45____, you can have the child check off all the items and so that when you go to leave and the child says, “Oh, I need one more sip of water”, you can say “We took care of that already, sweetie. I love you. Good night. I’ll see you in the morning.”
A. Blue light from electronics affects your eyes
B. Electronic devices wear children out
C. It also helps to keep your room at a lower temperature
D. For parents struggling to get their little ones to bed on time
E. In order to get those energetic children to sleep in a better way
F. So after that bedtime routine is completed
G. Create a bedtime routine
【答案】41. D 42. G 43. A 44. C 45. F
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要提出一些帮助孩子养成健康睡眠习惯的建议。
【详解】1.由上文“Many parents struggle to get their school-aged children, from ages five to 11, to willingly and peacefully wind down for bed.”(许多家长努力让他们5岁到11岁的学龄儿童，自愿而和平地安静地上床睡觉。)可知，许多家长都努力让他们的孩子准时上床睡觉，结合下 文“the tips on forming healthy sleeping habits can benefit your entire family.”(养成健康睡眠习惯的小贴士对你的整个家庭都有好处。)可知，这些建议是针对那些努力让孩子准时上床睡觉的家长说的，D项“For parents struggling to get their little ones to bed on time”(对于那些努力让孩子准时上床睡觉的家长来说)符合语境，故选D。
2.分析文章结构可知，此处应该是本段小标题。根据下文“Building healthy sleeping habits starts with creating a routine for the entire family. This could include turning off screens, spending quality time with your children, and brushing your teeth and saying goodnight. The benefits of having a consistent (一致的) bedtime schedule go beyond getting enough hours of sleep.”(养成健康的睡眠习惯首先要为整个家庭建立一个常规。这可以包括关掉屏幕，和孩子们共度美好时光，刷牙和道晚安。有一个稳定的就寝时间表的好处要比有足够的睡眠时间重要。)可知，本段主要是强调制定一套就寝时间计划，G选项 “Create a bedtime routine”(制定一套就寝常规)符合，故选G。
3.根据本段小标题“Store away anything with a screen”(把所有有屏幕的东西都收起来)和下文“and doesn’t allow the melatonin to make you feel sleepy.”(而且不会让褪黑激素使你感到困倦)可知，空处应该是说明电子屏幕对人们的不良影响，且和下文构成并列关系，A选项 “Blue light from electronics affects your eyes”(电子设备发出的蓝光会影响你的眼睛)符合，故选A。
4.根据上文“Experts recommend using blackout curtains to set up a bedroom that is pitch black, if necessary.”(专家建议，如果有必要，可以用遮光窗帘来设置一间漆黑的卧室。)可知，空处应该是说明用遮光窗帘来设置一间漆黑的卧室的好处，C选项“It also helps to keep your room at a lower temperature”(这也有助于使你的房间保持较低的温度。)符合，其中it代指上句话中的“遮光窗帘”，故选C。
5.根据上文“You’d better create a bedtime checklist that includes everything your family does before going to bed. On this list, you can also write down anything that your child typically requests like water, story time or hugs and kisses.”(你最好列一张睡前清单，上面记录了你家人睡前做的所有事情。在这个清单上，你也可以写下孩子通常要求的任何东西，比如水，故事时间，拥抱和亲吻。)和下文“you can have the child check off all the items”(你可以让孩子检查所有项目)可知，睡前要做的事：列睡前清单，继而完成这些项目，最后让孩子检查所有项目，所以空处应该是说明完成这些项目，F选项 “So after that bedtime routine is completed”(所以在睡前例行程序完成后)符合，承上启下，故选 F。

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了38岁的工匠李江忠在尝试了许多其他工作后，致力于钻研糖画艺术。
【61题详解】
考查形容词。句意：随着越来越少的人选择制作糖画，中国传统民间工艺在某些方面可能已经成为遥远的记忆。分析句子结构，空白处在句中子中作定语，使用形容词，故填distant。
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，38岁的工匠李江忠致力于保持糖画艺术的生命力。分析句子结构，be devoted to doing为固定短语，含义为：致力于……，其中的to为介词，后跟动名词，故填keeping。
【63题详解】
考查介词。句意：李当了十几年的矿工。分析句子结构，work as为固定短语，含义为：做……工作，与句子表达的含义一致，故填as。
【64题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：矿井关闭后，李某转而从事房屋装修，直到手指受伤被迫放弃。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作谓语，与主语之间为被动关系，使用被动语态，因句子表达的是发生在过去的动作，使用一般过去时的被动语态，又因主语为单数，故填was forced。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意：今年早些时候，他发现了糖画，这是他真正感兴趣的一种东西。根据名词的用法，名词前需使用不定冠词，表示“一种”含义，因空白处后面词以元音音素开头，故填an。
【66题详解】

【68题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：他很快就掌握了这项技能，可以用融化的红糖或白糖画出各种各样的糖画。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中做后置定语，应使用非谓语动词，因与其逻辑主语sugar paintings之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，使用过去分词，故填made。
【69题详解】
考查副词。句意：一位工匠用糖浆在石板上仔细地画动物和花朵。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作状语，使用副词，故填carefully。
【70题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：当糖冷却下来时，出现的是一件糖的艺术品。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作谓语，因句子表示的是一个客观情况，谓语动词使用一般现在时，主语是单数，谓语用第三人称单数，故填cools。
