B. Keeping in contact with friends.
C. Following a different career path.
【答案】18. A 19. B 20. B
【解析】
【原文】As I look over you now, graduates of this grand university, you remind me of my 20-year-old self and my friends. I first came here 40 years ago with the intention of becoming an actor. As I have learned, and as you will learn, you can have the very best intentions, but sometimes things don’t work out the way you want them to be. I ended up studying medicine and becoming a doctor, and I also studied history. This transformation allowed me to devote myself to a worthy cause and help people in need, far more than if I had become an actor. So, although you have just graduated in one subject, don’t be afraid to take a different path if it feels like the right thing to do, even if it is 10 or 20 years down the line. And one last piece of advice before I let you go and celebrate— keep in touch with the friends you have made here.

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Four People Pushing Anamorphic (变形) Art to New Limits
Adry del Rocio
Mexican street artist Adry del Rocio creates 3D murals (壁画). In a piece for Den Helder City in the Netherlands, a playful seal intertwines (缠绕) between impossible column structures that reminds people of the mind-bending imaginings of the classic modernist artist MC Escher. In 2019, she created the award-winning “Swimming in red” for the International Street Art Festival in Brande, Denmark. The killing of whales in the Faroe Islands is marked by her work, where these beautiful mammals jump and play out of a sea of crimson, their tails changing into flowers.
Jonty Hurwitz
Using a variety of materials, the London artist/scientist performs a number of computer calculations, enabling him to warp (扭曲), say, an endangered frog or horse or even, basketball players into unrecognizable objects.
James Nizam
James Nizam works with light to transform a space. In 2016’s “Frieze”, a single beam of sunlight enters a common room through a carefully made hole. The resulting flood of light into the space creates an almost dreamlike feel, with the shining beams creating captivating lines and divisions in what cannot now be described as an empty room. Nizam is also known for transforming rooms by removing walls and floorboards to create anamorphic effects like in “Orthodrome”.
John Pugh
In a career extending over 30 years, world-famous American artist John Pugh has been creating show-stopping trompe L’oeil murals ( French for “deceiving the eye”) on a grand scale, whether it be giant snakes crashing through solid walls or revealing hidden temples and buildings by “peeling away” completely flat surfaces.
21. Who created the work “Frieze”?
A. Adry del Rocio. B. Jonty Hurwitz. C. James Nizam. D. John Pugh.
22. What’s the nationality of John Pugh?
A. He is French. B. He is American. C. He is Mexican. D. He is British.
23. What do the four artists have in common?
A. Their works won many awards. B. They are fond of creating 3D murals.
C. Their works have reached a new height. D. They are famous for transforming rooms.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. C

Sometimes you meet people in the most unexpected places who can change your life. When Michael Skinner, a student at the University of Notre Dame, called for an Uber after a formal event during Junior Parents Weekend, he had no idea that the driver would leave a lasting impact on him. As the engineering major made a friendly conversation with his driver, Doug Anderson, the New Jersey native asked him about his family.
That’s when Anderson began telling Skinner about his 11-year-old daughter Tori who he and his wife adopted when she was five. Tori was born with a condition that caused her to have only half a palm and one finger on her hands. Anderson explained to his empathetic (共情的) passenger that her hands made his daughter feel embarrassed and unhappy looking so different from her peers.
Wanting to help their child, he and his wife spoke to doctors from several hospitals about getting their daughter prosthetics (假肢) — only to hear that a child quickly outgrows the artificial limbs, making them even more expensive for the parents.
With the family welcoming two other children with special needs, the Andersons were extra careful to watch their spending. The circumstances led Anderson — who’s 58 — to become an Uber driver to make some extra money that also allowed him to interact with all kinds of people. People like Skinner, who luckily enough, was able to help his family. If there is such a thing as fate, the pair’s meeting was a welcome chance encounter. Skinner works at e-Nable, an informal student engineering club that 3D-printed robotic hands and they needed a child to test their creation after enduring an ongoing lag in their projects. Tori was the perfect candidate.
After several back-and-forth meetings, Tori can write, throw a baseball, and perform many other acts once considered impossible thanks to her new hands. Although Anderson never took the driving job expecting an outcome as bright as this, the father feels thankful fate stepped in.
24. How did Skinner know of Tori’s condition?
A. From a student engineering club.
B. From a conversation with Tori’s father.
C. From his professor who taught engineering.
D. From a meeting during Junior Parents Weekend.
25. Why does Anderson become an Uber driver?
A. To kill time.
B. To gain sympathy.
C. To earn extra money.
D. To befriend some doctors.
26. Which of the following can best describe the pair’s meeting?
A. Coincidental.
B. Interesting.
C. Regular.
D. Scheduled.
27. What does Anderson think of the test result of 3D-printed robotic hands on his daughter?
A. Puzzled.
B. Doubtful.
C. Dissatisfied.
D. Grateful.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】

The word hobby has an interesting history, and so does the concept of the hobby itself. Cultural attitudes have changed greatly about which ones are worth pursuing, and indeed whether having a hobby is desirable at all.
It is probably safe to say that when hobby was first used in the 15th century, most people didn’t have one, as it referred to a particular kind of horse. A hobby was a small horse that could walk leisurely, a particularly smooth, quick gait (步态) that was prized for long rides over terrible roads. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word is a shortened form of Hobbin, the name for a cart-horse, like Rover for a dog.
The hobby also had a part in medieval folk celebrations. Mummers and Morris dancers often included a person or two dressed up in horse costume, or pretending to ride a wooden stick with a horse’s head. Such hobbyhorses made popular children’s toys, too. Since hobbyhorses were the area of young children and pantomime (哑剧) actors, “riding one’s hobby-horse” or being “on one’s hobby” became an idiom for enthusiastically pursuing an idea or activity that looks silly to others.
Hobbies were considered slightly embarrassing, though mostly harmless, through the 18th century. In the 19th century, though, they grew more socially acceptable as middle-class leisure time increased. It became necessary for both men and women to pursue activities that would have seemed strange a century before.
In the early 20th century, hobbies came to be seen as a way to fill life with meaning and dignity. With a hobby, people could choose their own goals and progress towards them.
28. What did “hobby” refer to when originally used?
A. A special type of dog.
B. A smooth and quick gait.
C. A particular kind of horse.
D. A long ride over terrible roads.
29. When did hobbies make people feel a bit ashamed?
A. In the 15th century.
B. In the 19th century.
C. In the late 20th century.
D. Through the 18th century.
30. How does the author organize the text?
A. By giving examples.
B. By following the order of time.
C. By following the order of space.
D. By analyzing cause and effect.
31. In which section of a newspaper can we probably find the text?
A. People.
B Culture.
C. Travel.
D. Business.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“爱好”一词的起源和历史，在社会发展过程中所蕴含的意义以及其变化。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It is probably safe to say that when hobby was first used in the 15th century, most people didn’t have one, as it referred to a particular kind of horse.(可以肯定地说，当hobby在15世纪第一次被使用时，大多数人都没有，因为它指的是一种特定的马。)”可知，“爱好”最初指的是一种特殊的马。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Hobbies were considered slightly embarrassing, though mostly harmless, through the 18th century.(在整个18世纪，业余爱好被认为有点尴尬，但基本上是无害的。)”可知，在整个18世纪，爱好让人觉得有点尴尬。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据“in the 15th century”、“through the 18th century”、“In the 19th century”、“In the early 20th century”等提示可知，本文是按照时间顺序来写的。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。文章主要介绍了“爱好”一词的起源和历史，在社会发展过程中所蕴含的意义以及其变化。根据文章的主要内容和写作风格来看，文章最可能出自报刊的文化版块。故选B。
D
“Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee.” Captain Ahab’s dying declaration of defiance (抗争) is among the most famous passages in Herman Melville’s novel.
In reality, such victories of the hunted over the hunter were a fantasy in the cruel world of industrial whaling. The biggest cetacean of them all, the blue whale, had all but disappeared from the Southern Ocean by the time a ban on hunting it was introduced in 1967.
Sightings of the largest mammal ever to live on the earth had been rare in the region since then. Not any more. A survey of coastal waters around the island of South Georgia in the sub-Antarctic has had remarkable results.
In just over three weeks, in the krill-rich waters of what was once their main feeding ground, the movements of 55 Antarctic blues were recorded by the British Antarctic Survey. The finding was described as “truly, truly amazing” by one cetacean specialist. It suggests that when a comprehensive audit (审计), due in 2021, is carried out, there is a good chance that the species will prove to be in full recovery mode, as are humpbacks and other whales in the southern hemisphere.
Three years ago, the Natural History Museum established a 25m skeleton (骨架) of a blue whale and named it Hope, intending to inspire new generations to build a sustainable future.
The return of the world’s most splendid ocean travellers to southern waters should serve as an example for wider possibilities of conservation. Ecological wrongs can be righted, or at least mitigated, with sufficient will and organisations.
The more general comeback of the whale - for which environmental campaigners should take a great deal of credit — can be an inspiration for victories yet to be won. It could also act as an added motivation to action on the climate emergency.
32. What’s the author’s purpose of mentioning the famous passage in Herman Melville’s novel?
A. To describe a hunters’ bravery. B. To introduce the topic of the text.
C. To stress the popularity of the novel. D. To offer information about whale hunting.
33. Why was a 25m skeleton of a blue whale named Hope?
A. To attract tourists to visit the museum.
B. To show the unkindness of whale hunters.
C. To motivate humans to live harmoniously with nature.
D. To call on people to pay attention to the blue whales’ habitat.
34. What does the underlined word “mitigated” in paragraph 6 probably mean?
A. Developed. B. Promoted. C. Reduced. D. Solved.
35. What’s the best title of the text?
A. The blue whales’ comeback B. The cruelty of industrial whaling
C. The importance of protecting whales D. The sustainable development of the Antarctic area
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在环保人士的努力下，更多的蓝鲸正在逐步回归海洋。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段““Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee.” Captain Ahab’s dying declaration of defiance (抗争) is among the most famous passages in Herman Melville’s novel.(“我向你滚来滚去，你这条毁灭一切却又不可战胜的大鲸；我要与你搏斗到底；我从地狱之心刺向你；为了仇恨，我向你吐出最后一口气。”亚哈船长临死前的反抗宣言是赫尔曼·梅尔维尔小说中最著名的段落之一)”以及第二段“In reality, such victories of the hunted over the hunter were a fantasy in the cruel world of industrial whaling. The biggest cetacean of them all, the blue whale, had all but disappeared from the Southern Ocean by the time a ban on hunting it was introduced in 1967.(实际上，在残酷的工业捕鲸世界里，这样的被捕者对猎人的胜利只是一种幻想。其中最大的鲸类动物蓝鲸，在1967年禁止捕猎蓝鲸时，几乎从南大洋消失了)”可推知，作者提到赫尔曼·麦尔维尔这部小说中最著名的桥段之一，是为了引出本文要讨论的话题。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Three years ago, the Natural History Museum established a 25m skeleton (骨架) of a blue whale and named it Hope, intending to inspire new generations to build a sustainable future.(三年前，自然历史博物馆建立了一具25米长的蓝鲸骨架，并将其命名为“希望”，旨在激励新一代建设可持续发展的未来)”可知，一具25米长的蓝鲸骨架被命名为“希望”是为了激励人类与自然和谐相处，建设可持续发展的未来。故选C。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“Ecological wrongs can be righted, or at least”以及后文“with sufficient will and organisations.”可知，“at least”的语意比righted轻，说明只要有足够的意愿和组织，生态错误是可以纠正的，或者至少是可以减轻的。故画线词意思是“减少”。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Sightings of the largest mammal ever to live on the earth had been rare in the region since then. Not any more. A survey of coastal waters around the island of South Georgia in the sub-Antarctic has had remarkable results.(从那以后，在这个地区很少能看到这种地球上最大的哺乳动物。现在不是了。对亚南极南乔治亚岛周围沿海水域的调查取得了显著成果)”结合文章主要介绍了在环保人士的努力下，更多的蓝鲸正在逐步回归海洋。A选项“蓝鲸的回归”符合语境。故选A。

How To Reduce Paper Waste
Print out documents only if you absolutely need to
While it may be easier to print documents, since you won’ t have to log on to a computer or smartphone to find them, there are some disadvantages to printing. Printed documents tend to get lost. ____36____. You may forget to bring them along with you.
Use cloth bags instead of paper ones
A lot of water and fuel need to be used to produce paper bags. Paper bags also usually tear easily and they don’t tend to do well in the rain. Also, the fertilizers and other chemicals that are used to make paper and for tree farming are acid rain contributors, and they also contribute to higher rates of waterway eutrophication. ____37____.
Buy products with less packaging
A huge amount of solid waste is from packaging and is often thrown away after a while. There are a few things you can do to use less packaging in your daily life. ____38____. Not only can this help to reduce waste from packaging, but it can also save you money.
____39____
While paper cups and dinnerware may seem convenient, they can harm the environment. For example, if the paper product has been used for food ( such as a carton or paper plate), it typically cannot be recycled. Reusable dinnerware can also typically be used a lot more than disposable dinnerware.
Spread the word about reducing paper waste
You can do many things to reduce paper waste yourself, but sharing this advice with others can be helpful too. ____40____. You can share this on social media, or simply just discuss it with them in conversation.
A. They may take up a lot of space
B. Avoid paper dinnerware and cups
C. Over packaging is a serious problem
D. Carry reusable bags whenever possible

You can start with family, friends and anyone else you know(你可以从家人、朋友和任何你认识的人开始)能够衔接上文，符合本段主旨。故选F。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国湖北——曾侯乙编钟的一些情况。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：它起源于西周，在战国时期达到了顶峰。reached 后缺少宾语，high对应的名词是height，故填 height。
【57题详解】
考查连词。句意：它展示了中国古代青铜工艺的伟大成就、音乐科学的精湛技艺和人民的智慧。前后短语是并列关系，应用连词and。故填and。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意：编钟由不同大小的钟按音高的顺序排列而成，挂在一个巨大的钟架上。consist of为固定搭配，意为“由……组成”。故填 of。
【59题详解】
考查时态语态。句意：用木槌和长棍敲钟，可以发出不同的音调，演奏出优美的音乐。主语和谓语之间是被动关系，主语是复数意义，叙述的是一般事实，为一般现在时的被动语态，故填are rung。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意：编钟的声音效果很大程度上取决于它的大小和形状——铃铛越小，音调越高，但音量越低。修饰谓语动词depend应用副词greatly。故填greatly。
【61题详解】
考查比较级。句意：编钟的声音效果很大程度上取决于它的大小和形状——铃铛越小，音调越高，但音量越低。the+比较级，the+比较级，表示“越……越……”。故填smaller。
【62题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：其中保存完好的铜制编钟有65件。item为可数名词，出土的物品很多，此空填名词的复数形式。故填 items。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：其中保存完好的铜制编钟有65件。分析句子结构可知preserve与逻辑主语bronze chime-bells构成被动关系，故用过去分词作后置定语。故填 preserved。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这是著名的曾侯仪编钟，是中国现存最大、最完整的编钟。根据句子结构可知，该空是定语从句的关系词，先行词chime-bells 指物，在定语从句中作主语，先行词前有最高级修饰，只能用that。故填that。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：最大的钟高约152厘米，重达200多公斤。分析句子结构可知weigh与逻辑主语bell构成主动关系，故用现在分词作状语。故此空填weighing。

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。
Two days before Christmas, I received a Facebook message from a stranger. “Hi, Peter,” it began, “my name is Al Sodaro and I’m a former patient of your Dad.”
My father was a doctor, and Al wanted to share holiday greetings and a childhood story involving a talk he’d had with Dad. Over the years I’ve received many such messages, or had people ask me if I was related to Dr. Zheutlin, or Dr. Z as he was well known in my New Jersey hometown. A story of grace or kindness would always follow.
When he was diagnosed (诊断) with lung cancer in 1997 and realized he was going to have to close his practice of more than 40 years, Dad asked me to help him draft a letter to his patients. He was heartbroken. “I think I need my patients more than they need me,” he told me.
We had the letters copied and mailed them out the old-fashioned way. He was completely unprepared for the outpouring of love and appreciation that followed. He was just doing his job, he said.
The cards and letters-hundreds of them-came from near and far. Young children sent drawings, many recalling their past with my father, or enclosed a lollipop (棒棒糖). Some came from parents who had been his patients when they were young. Some were several pages long, filled with stories about the doctor who, above all, showed kindness, answering their calls in the middle of the night or meeting them in the office before sunrise.
Sometimes his greatest gift was his ability to simply reduce their anxiety. At other times, he recognized rare but serious symptoms (due to his clinical excellence) where quick thinking avoided disaster. Many of the cards and letters contained stories like Al Sodaro’s. There was one, however, that is still fresh in my mind, which I shared at his standing-room-only memorial service.
When he was quite young, a little boy named Chris Eckershard came to the office, proud of a new pair of sneakers he was wearing.
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。
Dad asked Chris if he could have one, just one, of Chris’s sneakers.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The box came from a woman, who was Chris’s mother.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Dad asked Chris if he could have one, just one, of Chris’s sneakers. I imagine at first Chris was confused, but then understood Dad was gently joking with him. By the time Dad was dying, Chris was about 12 and the sneaker joke had been ongoing for years. Every time he came to the office, Dad would ask him for one of his shoes. A week before Dad died, a small box arrived in the mail and inside was a single well-worn sneaker. It remains a cherished possession in our family.
The box came from a woman, who was Chris’s mother. Hearing the news of Dad’s death, she drove all the way to the funeral home to tell us something. She was a single, working mom raising Chris on a tight budget, and had no health insurance. She wanted us to know that for years, Dad refused to take a penny from her. Dad never told us such stories as these. He did these things not because he wanted others to think better of him, but because he believed what mattered most in the world was kindness.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者收到了一个陌生人发来的Facebook信息，是父亲以前的病人发来的。父亲生病后，不得不结束诊所的工作，因此让作者他起草一封致病人的信。信寄出后收到了很多回复，病人们讲述着自己的故事，感激作者的父亲。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“爸爸问Chris他是否要可以要一只Chris的运动鞋”可知，第一段可描写Chris和父亲关于运动鞋的故事。
②由第二段首句内容“这个盒子来自一个女人，她是Chris的母亲”可知，第二段可描写Chris的母亲前来诉说父亲从来没有收钱，和作者感悟。
2.续写线索：询问是否可以要Chris的运动鞋——笑话持续多年——收到运动鞋——母亲前来——得知真相——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①想：want/feel like
②去世：die/pass away
③到达：arrive/reach
情绪类
①温柔地：gently /softly
②困惑：confused /puzzled
【点睛】[高分句型1] Every time he came to the office, Dad would ask him for one of his shoes. (运用了every time引导时间状语从句)
[高分句型2] He did these things not because he wanted others to think better of him, but because he believed what mattered most in the world was kindness. (运用了because引导原因状语从句)
