K. Rowling please leave Harry Potter in peace? 2010 was a good time to move on. We all know that Harry Potter’s last adventures hit the bookstore in 2007, and three years later the Warner Bros adaptations ran their course in cinema, too. For many fans, the young wizard had worked his magic through most of their childhood. But in 2018, a new Harry Potter extended universe film, Fantastic Beasts: The Crime of Grindelwald, was out.I love Harry Potter series and I always will. It’s all there in my memory: I remember the first delight at reading “Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four, Privet drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal”. The wizarding treasure hunt, thrown by my parents for my ninth birthday with my dad dressed as Hagrid in the garden, was so clear in my mind. I remember deciphering (破译) my copy of the Deathly Hallows, the first book I read in English, and having to check the French for “wand”. The 2001 trip to the cinema to see Philosopher’s Stone, and all the ones that followed are kept clearly.However, someone needs to call a halt to the endless afterlife of Potter’s fictional universe. It was enough in the seven books and eight films. We didn’t and don’t need a community website, a theatre play, the printed script of said movie, and even more movies.Rowling has created 21st-century modern literary classic. I always look up to her as the textbook classy writer: respectfully drawing attention from readers, successful but wise enough to withdraw. She also cares much about the causes she holds dear. In 2011 alone, she donated 16% of her net worth to charities. Of all contemporary authors who hit gold, Rowling remains one of the very most inspirational.The saddest thing is that Rowling helped with the writing of the Cursed Child. She regularly “revealed” new details about Potter’s magical world on Twitter. Today, I decided to give up: I don’t follow Rowling on Twitter. I don’t want to see the new film. Thank you, Joanne Kathleen Rowling. I have enough valued stories—I don’t need new ones any more.4．The last book of Harry Potter series was published in ______ .A．2007 B．2010 C．2011 D．20175．We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the author ______ .A．felt rather easy to understand Harry Potter seriesB．was quiet fond of Harry Potter series and its filmsC．read Harry Potter series with the help of his parentsD．missed the time of watching Harry Potter movies with his parents6．What does the underlined phrase “call a halt to” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Share. B．Appreciate. C．Stop. D．Change.7．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A．The talent J. K. Rowling has.B．The author’s praise for J. K. Rowling.C．The influence of J. K. Rowling’s works.D．The author’s expectations of J. K. Rowling. Too much time spent on gaming, smartphones and watching television is linked to heightened levels and diagnoses (诊断) of anxiety or depression in children as young as age 2, according to a new study. Even after only one hour of screen time daily, children and teens may begin to have less curiosity, lower self-control, less emotional stability and a greater inability to finish tasks, reports San Diego State University psychologist Jean Twenge and University of Ceorgia psychology professor W. Keith Campbell. They were particularly interested in associations between screen time and diagnoses of anxiety and depression in youth, which has not yet been studied in great detail. Twenge and Campbell found adolescents who spend more than seven hours a day on screens were twice as likely as those spending one hour to have been diagnosed with anxiety or depression. Overall, links between screen time and well-being were larger among adolescents than among young children. “At first, I was surprised that the associations were larger for adolescents,” Twenge said. “However, adolescents spend more time on their phones and on social media, and these activities are more strongly linked to low well-being than watching television and videos, which is most of younger children’s screen time.” The study provides further evidence that the American Academy of Pediatrics’ (AAP) established screen time limits — one hour per day for those aged 2 to 5, with a focus on high-quality programs — are valid (有效的), Twenge said. The study also suggests that similar limits — perhaps to two hours a day-should be applied to school-aged children and adolescents, said Twenge. In terms of prevention, establishing possible causes and outcomes of low psychological well-being is especially important for child and adolescent populations. “Half of mental health problems develop by adolescence,” Twenge and Campbell wrote in their paper.8．What do we know about Twenge and Campbell’s study according to paragraph 2?A．It requires further research.B．It brings children less comfort.C．It needs greater ability to finish.D．It generates more public concern.9．What is a reason for the different degrees of impact on children?A．The effects of the harmful contents.B．Teens’ stronger addiction to screens.C．The portability of electronic devices.D．Teens’ negative emotions at discipline.10．Which of the following do the researchers want AAP to do?A．Provide high-quality programs.B．Issue minimum screen time limits.C．Apply the limits to older children.D．Present further evidence for prevention.11．What does this study focus on?A．Adolescents’ mental problems.B．The bad habits of the young adults.C．Low level of mental health in youth.D．The importance of the young population. A record surge in the creation of marine protected areas has taken the international community close to its goal of creating nature refuges on 17% of the world’s land and 10% of seas by 2020, according to a new UN report. Protected region snow cover more than five times the territory of the US, but the authors said this good news was often undermined by poor enforcement. Some reserves are little more than “paper parks” with little value to nature conservation. Atleast one has been turned into an industrial zone. More than 27m square kilometres of seas (7% of the total) and 20m sq km of land (15% of the total) now have protected status, according to the Protected Planet report, which was released on Sunday at the UN biodiversity conference in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.Almost all of the growth has been in marine regions, most notably with the creation last year of the world’s biggest protected area: the 2m sq km Ross Sea reserve, one-fifth of which is in the Antarctic. The no-fishing zone will be managed by New Zealand and the US.“We have seen an enormous expansion in the past two years. There is now more marine protected area than terrestrial, which nobody would have predicted,” said Kathy McKinnon of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. “I think we’ll continue to see a substantial increase, I’d guess, to at least 10% in the near future.”The UN convention on biological diversity says it has received national commitments for an additional 4.5m sq km of land and 16m sq km of oceans to be given protected status in the next two years. This would put it on course to achieve one of the key aims of the 2010 Aichi biodiversity targets.“This is the target with the most progress. In an ocean of bad news about biodiversity loss and eco-destruction, it is important to highlight that progress, though we still have a lot more to do to ensure not just the quantitive target but the effectiveness of the management,” said CristianaPașca Palmer, the head of UN Biodiversity.The creation of protected areas has not been enough to halt a collapse of species and ecosystems that threatens civilisation. Since 1970 humanity has wiped out 60% of mammal, bird, fish and reptile populations, with a dangerous knock-on impact on food production, fisheries and climate stability.Protected areas are important refuges from this wave of extinctions but many are underfunded and poorly policed. Only one in five have provided management assessments to the UN, which has raised questions about the viability of the rest.Naomi Kingston, of UN environment world conservation monitoring centre, said: “There is a race to deliver on Aichi target 11. It is fantastic that countries are coming with more ambition, but not if it is just a number without substance.“Some areas that have been reported to us as protected areas have been completely built over. We need datasets to define which areas are paper parks and which are real.”Developing nations have better reporting standards because many are obliged to provide regular assessments in order to qualify for funds from the Global Environment Fund. By contrast, many wealthier nations devote few resources to monitoring.Discussions will focus on a new, more flexible category for community land that is used by locals for both agricultural production and wildlife conservation. In Africa, Asia and Latin America, this is a model that has often helped improve biodiversity because residents — often from indigenous communities — live closely with nature and have an interest in protecting it.12．What promotes the achievement of the goals of marine nature reserves?A．Poor management of marine protected areas.B．Loss of biodiversity and ecological destruction.C．Rapid growth in the number of marine protected areas.D．Commitments in the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity.13．What impact does the establishment of “paper parks”have on protected areas?A．They have promoted the expansion of marine protected areas.B．They have little value for nature conservation.C．They all turn into industrial zones.D．They will slow down the collapse of ecosystems.14．According to the passage, what is Kathy McKinnon’s point of view?A．NewZealand and the United States regulate fishing-ban zones.B．In the near future, the number of marine refuges will increase by at least 10%.C．The quantity and management quality of marine refuges are equally important.D．Many countries have ambitions to achieve Aichi 11.15．What does this passage mainly talk about?A．A recorded surge in the creation of marine protected areas.B．Developing countries may receive funding from the Global Environment Facility.C．The Increase of marine refuges and the views of relevant personnel.D．Achieving Aichi 11 Goal.  二、七选五Not only is the college admission essay a place to showcase writing skills and personality, it’s also a place where a student’s voice can shine through. ____16____.

I waited patiently for ideas to come to me as I tried to think up exam questions for a test I would give my English students. My wife was off to a party somewhere, but I was not alone. Meghan, our 22-month-old angel, kept my company. Yet her plans seemed to go against mine.She followed a daily routine that was both time-consuming and challenging. It included certain basic tasks: watching the fish, sweeping the floor in her room, climbing up and down on her bed.At first I was able to concentrate on designing my test paper. But I was soon distracted. I had not expected the arrival of the “bib-bibs”—“bib-bibs” were birds. “Bib-bibs!” Meghan screamed excitedly, her eyes alive with expectation. She insisted that I come with her to the window.“In a minute. Just let me finish this question.” I said. She pulled me by the hand (two fingers, actually) toward the window. I saw myself as a fool, being led to watch the “bib-bibs”. They sang and leaped back and forth on the lawn just outside our apartment window. Meghan was absorbed, but as I watched them, I still thought about my work. With her attention off me, I left the window and went back to my desk.Five minutes later, she returned. She reached up to my keyboard and pressed a bunch of keys, adding a long line of scrabbled (乱的) letters to my question. I struggled to bring my annoyance under control. “No, thank you, Meghan. Daddy’s seen your work. I’ll do it myself.” She backed off.注意：1.词数150字左右；2.按照格式在答题卡相应位置作答。Paragraph 1:A few minutes later, she stood in front of me with her shoes and socks in her hand._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:I finally decided to take Meghan to the park._________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

(叶锦添是一位著名的视觉艺术家、服装设计师、舞台和电影艺术总监(尤其是他凭借《卧虎藏龙》获得奥斯卡奖的作品)，30年来一直是东方唯美主义的骄傲推动者。)”和“Where  HKDI Gallery, Hong Kong Design Institute(地点：香港设计学院HKDI画廊)”可知，叶锦添是一位服装设计师，所以在他的个人展览中可以看到时装设计。故选A。2．细节理解题。根据*Alice’s Adventure at Starlight Garden*中的“Created by 27 multimedia digital artists from Korea, the exhibition features a 30-foot rabbit hole for visitors to explore the fantasy world made famous in the book Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.

(无论是音乐、艺术、舞台、屏幕、餐厅和酒吧交易，还是很棒的户外活动，香港总是有一些有趣的事情发生。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了香港四个有趣的艺术展览。从而推断，文章是一篇展览指南。故选B。4．A    5．B    6．C    7．B 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者在文章中表达了自己对《哈利·波特》系列书籍和电影的喜爱，但同时希望停止对这部经典作品的继续编写和拍摄。4．细节理解题。根据第一段关键句“We all know that Harry Potter’s last adventures hit the bookstore in 2007, and three years later the Warner Bros adaptations ran their course in cinema, too.”（我们都知道，哈利·波特最后的冒险于2007年在书店发售，三年后，华纳兄弟改编的电影也在电影院上映。）可知，《哈利·波特》系列的最后一本书于2007年在书店发售，由此可知，《哈利·波特》系列的最后一本书出版于2007年。故选A项。5．推理判断题。根据第二段关键句“I love Harry Potter series and I always will.”（我喜欢《哈利·波特》系列，我永远都会喜欢。）和“The 2001 trip to the cinema to see Philosopher’s Stone, and all the ones that followed are kept clearly.”（2001年去电影院看《哈利·波特与魔法石》以及随后的所有该系列电影的经过都被清楚地保存了下来。）可知，作者喜欢《哈利·波特》系列的书籍，也喜欢看书籍改编成的电影，由此可知，从第二段可以看出，作者非常喜欢《哈利·波特》系列书籍及其电影。故选B项。6．词义猜测题。根据画线短语下句“It was enough in the seven books and eight films. We didn’t and don’t need a community website, a theatre play, the printed script of said movie, and even more movies.”（七本书和八部电影已经足够了。我们过去和现在都不需要一个社区网站，一部戏剧，上述电影的印刷剧本，甚至更多的电影。）可知，作者认为《哈利·波特》系列的七本书和八部电影已经足够了，不再需要其他的改编，甚至更多的电影了，由此可知，画线短语所在句指的是有人需要叫停波特虚构宇宙的无尽来世，“Stop”意为“（使）停下，停止”，能够表达画线短语在句中所要表达的意思。故选C项。7．主旨大意题。根据第四段关键句“Rowling has created 21st-century modern literary classic.”（罗琳创造了21世纪的现代文学经典。）和“In 2011 alone, she donated 16% of her net worth to charities.

The study also suggests that similar limits—perhaps to two hours a day-should be applied to school-aged children and adolescents, said Twenge. (Twenge说，这项研究进一步证明了美国儿科学会(AAP)制定的屏幕时间限制是有效的——2至5岁儿童每天一小时，重点是高质量的节目。Twenge说，这项研究还表明，学龄儿童和青少年也应该受到类似的限制，可能是每天两小时。)”可知，Twenge希望AAP能把这种限制用于年龄较大的儿童。故选C。11．推理判断题。根据全文内容以及最后一段“In terms of prevention, establishing possible causes and outcomes of low psychological well- being is especially important for child and adolescent populations. “Half of mental health problems develop by adolescence,” Twenge and Campbell wrote in their paper.(在预防方面，确定心理健康低下的可能原因和结果对儿童和青少年人群尤其重要。Twenge和Campbell在他们的论文中写道：“一半的心理健康问题是在青春期出现的。”)”可推断，他们的研究重点在青少年的心理健康方面。故选A。12．C    13．B    14．B    15．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了海洋保护区的建立出现了创纪录的激增。说明了保护区几乎所有的增长都发生在海洋地区，文章引述了不同的人对此的看法和评价以及保护区未来的发展等。12．细节理解题。根据第一段“A record surge in the creation of marine protected areas has taken the international community close to its goal of creating nature refuges on 17% of the world’s land and 10% of seas by 2020, according to a new UN report.(联合国一份新报告称，海洋保护区的创建激增，使国际社会接近其到2020年在世界17%的陆地和10%的海洋上建立自然保护区的目标)”可知，海洋保护区数量迅速增长推动了海洋自然保护区目标的实现。故选C。13．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Some reserves are little more than “paper parks” with little value to nature conservation.(有些保护区不过是“纸公园”，对自然保护没有什么价值)”可知，“纸公园”的建立对自然保护没有什么价值。故选B。14．细节理解题。根据第三段““We have seen an enormous expansion in the past two years. There is now more marine protected area than terrestrial, which nobody would have predicted,” said Kathy McKinnon of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. “I think we’ll continue to see a substantial increase, I’d guess, to at least 10% in the near future.”(“过去两年，我们看到了巨大的扩张。国际自然保护联盟的Kathy McKinnon说:“现在海洋保护区比陆地保护区要多，这是没有人预料到的。”“我认为，我们将继续看到大幅增长，我猜，在不久的将来，至少会达到10%。”)”可知，Kathy McKinnon认为在不久的将来，海洋保护区的数量将增加至少10%。故选B。15．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A record surge in the creation of marine protected areas has taken the international community close to its goal of creating nature refuges on 17% of the world’s land and 10% of seas by 2020, according to a new UN report.(联合国一份新报告称，海洋保护区的创建激增，使国际社会接近其到2020年在世界17%的陆地和10%的海洋上建立自然保护区的目标)”结合文章还说明了保护区几乎所有的增长都发生在海洋地区，文章引述了不同的人对此的看法和评价以及保护区未来的发展等。可知，这篇文章主要讲的是海洋保护区的建立出现了创纪录的激增。故选A。16．G    17．B    18．A    19．D    20．C 【导语】本文是说明文。文章详细介绍了写一篇优秀的大学论文时，学生们需要知道的事情。16．下文“This can feel like a lot of pressure.(这可能会让人感到很大的压力)”提到这可能会让人感到很大的压力，说明空格处说了一些较难的事情，同时跟前文是转折关系。G项“However，students have only several hundred words to boost their chances of admission.(然而，学生们只有几百个单词来增加他们被录取的机会)”说明学生们只有几百个单词来增加他们被录取的机会，承上启下，符合文意。故选G。17．下文“such as word limits and essay topics. Admission officers note that although there are no strict word limits for the essay，they suggest a cap of about 650 words.(比如字数限制和论文主题。招生人员指出，虽然文章没有严格的字数限制，但他们建议不超过650字。)”提到看字数限制和论文要求。B项“Students can review essay requirements before application.(学生可以在申请之前审查论文要求)”中requirements(要求)符合文意。故选B。18．下文“Rather, students should narrow their focus and write about a specific experience，hobby or habit that reveals something personal，like how they think，what they value or what their strengths are.(相反，学生应该缩小他们的焦点，写一个具体的经历，爱好或习惯，揭示一些个人的东西，如他们如何思考，他们重视什么或他们的优点是什么。)”使用Rather，说明跟空格处是转折关系，且强调要缩小写作的焦点，因为文章不是一个完整的自传。A项“The essay isn’t a complete autobiography.(这篇文章不是一个完整的自传)”中complete autobiography与下文是转折关系，符合文意。故选A。19．下文“Even an essay on a common topic can be fascinating if done right.(即使是一篇关于共同主题的文章，如果写得好，也会很吸引人。)”提到即使是一篇关于共同主题的文章，如果写得好，也会很吸引人，再结合前句提到可以写一个具体的经历，爱好或习惯，揭示一些个人的东西等。说明空格处也是在讲写的内容，且是共同主题的文章。D项“Students can also write to illustrate an aspect of their background (学生也可以通过写作来说明他们背景的某一方面)”中also和write to illustrate an aspect of their background(通过写作来说明他们背景的某一方面)承上启下，符合文意。故选D。20．上文“Remember even though students often stress about the essay in particular，it’s not the only thing college admission officers look at.(记住，尽管学生们经常对论文感到特别紧张，但这并不是大学招生官唯一关注的东西。)”通过转折提到大学招生官并不是唯一关注的东西，还有专注申请过程。C项“The essay is the window, but application process is the house (申请文书是窗口，但申请过程是房子)”中the essay承接上文，用比喻的形式说明了招生官关注的是什么。故选C。 21．D    22．A    23．C    24．A    25．B    26．D    27．B    28．C    29．A    30．D    31．B    32．C    33．C    34．A    35．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述99岁高领的大卫，仍然每天在尽自己的努力做志愿者，做慈善。【详解】1.考查动词词义辨析。句意：大卫每天花三个小时，往返于他做义工的慈善商店。A. walking走；B. moving移动；C. turning转过来；D. travelling行进。根据上文“David spends almost three hours each day”及下文“to and from the charity (慈善) shop ”可知，大卫每天在慈善商店来来回回往返需要三四个小时的行程。故选D。2.考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。A. volunteers志愿；B. purchases购买；C. accommodates提供住宿；D. practises练习。根据下文“ He then works 8-10 hours at the St Columba’s Hospice shop”及“for the charity.”可知，此处指他是志愿做事。故选A。3.考查名词词义辨析。句意：全年无论天气如何，他都要步行20分钟，乘坐两辆不同的公交车。A. research研究；B. shopping购物；C. journey旅程；D. business商业。结合前文“David spends almost three hours each day 　1　 to and from the charity (慈善) shop”及下文“includes a 20-minute walk and two different 4 ”可知，他去做志愿的地方需要走20分钟同时乘坐两辆不同的公共汽车才能到。所以此处指他的行程包含这些内容。故选C。4.考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A. buses公共汽车；B. planes飞机；C. conditions条件；D. systems系统。根据前文“David spends almost three hours each day 　1　 to and from the charity (慈善) shop”及“includes a 20-minute walk and two different ”和下文“ He then works 8-10 hours at the St Columba’s Hospice shop”可知，此处指他去做志愿的地方需要走20分钟同时乘坐两辆不同的公共汽车才能到。故选A。5.考查名词词义辨析。句意：然后他在圣哥伦巴临终关怀商店工作8到10个小时，接受捐赠，(用蒸汽）熨衣服，帮助顾客找到他们想要的东西。A. letters信；B. donations捐赠物；C. praise赞扬；D. treatment治疗。根据前文“David spends almost three hours each day 　1　to and from the charity (慈善) shop”和“He then works 8-10 hours at the St Columba’s Hospice shop”可知，他的工作地方是慈善商店，会接受人们捐赠的东西。故选B。6.考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。A. share分享；B. change改变；C. remember记住；D. find找到。根据下文“the things they’re looking for”，可知人们在寻找东西，所以此处指它帮助人们找到需要的东西。故选D。7.考查短语词义辨析。句意：大卫说努力工作是他长寿的秘诀。A. deep concern 深切关注；B. hard work努力工作；C. regular exercise规律练习；D. fair play公平游戏。根据前文“David is 99, but he still works four days a week”可知，此处指他认为自己的长寿的秘诀就是努力工作。故选B。8.考查动词词义辨析。句意：如果他们关闭了商店，我不知道我会做什么——我不能坐在家里什么也不做。A. left离开；B. discovered发现；C. closed关闭；D. entered进入。根据前文“He then works 8-10 hours at the St Columba’s Hospice shop, ”及后文“ sit in the house doing nothing”可知，他每天在这里工作8至10个小时，所以此处指这里关闭后，他将只能坐在家里，什么也不做了。故选C。9.考查副词词义辨析。句意：我会尽我所能活下去，直到我倒下时才停止工作。A. long长期地；长久地；B. well满意地；C. happily高兴地；D. comfortably舒适地。根据前文“I will try my best to live ”可知，此处指他将尽力的活的长久。故选A。10.考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。A. resist抵抗；B. keep保持；C. avoid避免；D. stop停止。根据下文“when I fall down”可知，当他倒下，即意味着他不能工作时，所以就停止了工作。故选D。11.考查形容词词义辨析。句意：大卫工作的敏捷程度令人惊讶。A. struggling艰苦奋斗的；B. surprising令人惊讶的；C. popular受欢迎的；D. similar相似的。根据下文“Nobody believes he is 99.

I got it—she wanted me to take her out to the park. I pretended I hadn’t paid attention. She stepped forward, staring at me with her innocent eyes. “Leave me alone for a while, Meghan.” I said without looking at her. After a few seconds, out of the corner of my eye, I saw tears rolling down her cheek. I felt so terrible that I regretted what I had said. I had to correct my mistake.I finally decided to take Meghan to the park. I turned to her and said, “Sorry, let’s go to see more ‘bib-bibs’!” She was so excited that she smiled through tears. I held her hand as we walked outside. Wandering through the park, Meghan was like a free bird enjoying herself in the wide blue sky. Seeing her smiley face, I felt much happier than I would have been doing my work. I could catch up on it in the evening. Work can always wait, but love cannot.【导语】本文讲述了一个关于爱的故事。一天，作者坐在桌前为学生出试卷，因为妻子外出，家里只有22个月大的女儿陪着他，作者需要分心去照顾女儿。正在作者集中精力设计试卷时，女儿兴奋地叫着让作者陪她去窗前看鸟，当女儿看鸟时，作者仍在思考工作，并再次回到桌前。五分钟后，女儿回到作者身边，用手在键盘上乱按，这让作者有些生气。【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“几分钟后，她站在我面前，手里拿着鞋子和袜子。”可知，第一段可描写女儿的请求和作者的反应。②由第二段首句内容“我最终决定带梅根去公园。”可知，第二段可描写父女二人在公园做了什么及作者的感悟。2.续写线索：女儿想去公园——作者拒绝——女儿流泪——作者后悔——来到公园——享受快乐时光——作者的感悟3.词汇激活行为类①.明白：get it/understand②.盯着：stare at/fix one’s eyes on③.玩得愉快：enjoy oneself/have fun情绪类①.兴奋的：excited/thrilled②.更高兴的：happier/more pleased【点睛】[高分句型1].
