D.Mailing your entry on October 30.BWhen you buy fresh-cut flowers,do you think about where they came from?You might think they were grown somewhere nearby.The reality,though,is that the cut flower trade is increasingly international.Today,thanks to airplanes and high-tech cooling systems,even the most delicate flowers are exported and sold thousands of kilometers away from where it was grown.The Netherlands handles about 60 percent of the world’s cut flowers.And its auction houses(拍卖行)are very large—Aalsmeer,near Amsterdam,is auction house in the sense that Tokyo is a city.About 120 soccer fields would fill its main building.Nineteen million flowers are sold here on an average day.The Netherlands is also a world leader in developing new flower varieties.Dutch companies and the government invest a great amount of money in flower research.Their scientists look for ways to lengthen a flower’s vase life,to strengthen flowers to prevent them from being damaged while traveling,and also to strengthen the natural fragrance of the flowers.There are also many other places with a better climate for growing flowers,and the climate of Ecuador is almost perfect.With predictable rainy periods and 12 hours of sunlight each day,Ecuador’s roses are famous for their large heads and long,straight stems(茎).Every year,Ecuador sells about 500 million flowers to the U.S.alone.The industry has brought employment opportunities and a stronger economy to the country.“My family has TV now.There are radios,” says Yolanda Quishpe,20,who picked roses for four years.To others,the increasingly international nature of the flower trade is very bad news.In recent years local growers in the U.S.faced huge competition from international flower companies,and many lost their businesses.Lina Hale,an independent rose grower said her father had predicted the situation in the 1980s.“I see a train coming down the track,” he warned her,“and it’s coming straight towards us.”24.What do we know about Aalsmeer?A.It’s very large. B.It’s as big as Tokyo.C.19 million flowers are grown there. D.60% of the Netherlands’ flowers are sold there.25.What is one aspect of the Netherlands’ flower research?A.How to increase flower production.B.How to avoid climate’s effect on flowers.C.How to speed up the process of flowering.D.How to keep flowers fresh during transportation.26.What does the author want to show through Yolanda Quishpe’s words?A.Flowers from Ecuador are beautiful. B.Ecuador could grow even more flowers.C.The flower trade in Ecuador benefits the local. D.Rose-picking is a very popular job in Ecuador.27.What Lina Hale’s father said suggested that 　　　. A.he was excited to see the trainB.he knew his business would be affectedC.he was sure customers wouldn’t want to buy the flowersD.he thought trains were a new way to deliver flowersCWhile poetry matters a lot in our house,I know that not everybody is as readily moved by words as I am.That said,I think kids benefit when parents and caregivers help them experience the world through poetry.Poetry is important for a child’s development,according to psychologist Dianne Jandrasits.Adults can create a secure attachment with kids by actively reading with them,especially between the ages of 0 and 5,and the sound of poetry can make the process fun.Poetry,Jandrasits says,can help a child learn to understand someone else’s feelings.“For a young child,” she says,“it all starts with someone understanding your feelings.And that’s where parents and caregivers come in.”Dave Lucas,a lecturer at Case Western Reserve University,says,“Poetry is that place where language is pleasure and not just communication.” It’s pretty simple.Poetry is music.It’s about playing with language and sound.And kids love to play.Lucas talked about sharing poems with kindergartners,and how much kids love it when you tell them to just make some rhymes and be silly.“The problem,though,is that as kids get older,they lose that interest in playing with words.Kids get to school and have some negative experience with poetry.Either because it’s inaccessible or boring,or it’s too artsy (装艺术的),” Lucas says.Gray-Kontar,like all the poets I spoke to,mentioned how important it is for caregivers to pay attention to what it is that their young person seems to like,whether it’s a sport or some experience they’re a part of,and then to select poems for them based on those interests.He suggests reaching out to a local librarian or looking up poetry readings online.The pandemic (大流行病) has been isolating for a lot of us,he says,but through poetry,we can connect with people we wouldn’t necessarily meet.28.In what way can poetry help kids according to Jandrasits?A.It can help them become more active.B.It can help them hold their feelings back.C.It can help them be independent of others.D.It can help them become more understanding.29.What does Lucas insist on when it comes to teaching kids poetry?A.Making it fun. B.Reading it to music.C.Explaining its rules. D.Writing about silly things.30.What’s Lucas’s attitude towards schools’ way of teaching poetry?A.Uncertain. B.Supportive. C.Indifferent. D.Dissatisfied.31.What does Gray-Kontar advise caregivers to do?A.Read kids poetry that’s available online.B.Develop kids’ interest in different things.C.Choose poetry that’s in agreement with kids’ hobbies.D.Keep themselves informed of new poetry books.DWe all agree,surely—memorizing poetry is a good thing,and children ought to do it.But people do object.At least,they object to the idea that children should be forced to learn poetry.They tend to be people like Michael Rosen.Rosen has more practical objections to children having to learn poetry by the government’s order.Actually,Rosen is all for learning poetry,“when it feels right”,which is,he says,“one of those vague phrases much hated by people in authority and yet it is at the heart of good teaching.”He’s onto something about the timing,but that doesn’t mean policymakers are wrong to insist on pupils learning poetry.The problem is that some influential educationists have come to see learning by heart as a waste of time when tomorrow’s adults will want skills more than information.Let’s come to the most important objectors—children.Their objection tends to come in the least offensive form.It comes in the question:“Why are we doing this?” It’s a worthwhile inquiry.I teach at Sherborne School,where boys do learn poetry;and luckily there’s time in our lessons to answer that question.Here’s one of the answers I give.There’ll be one time when your good friend is going to introduce you to someone with whom he wants to spend the rest of his life.There’ll be a ceremony to honour this union,and words will be very important.You’re likely to be the one who has to stand up and say,“Let me not to the marriage of true minds/Admit impediment...” And when you do that,you’re going to be speaking for everyone in the room.Now,everybody breathes sigh of relief.Learning poetry and reciting poetry forces us to think of it in this public way.However mysterious and intimate poetry seems,we need to remember it’s something we also share,and offer each other.So take some,and pass it on.32.What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?A.The right timing. B.The poetry with vague phrases.C.The government’s order. D.The natural way to learn poetry.33.Which of the following would be favored by some influential educationists?A.To guide children how to recite poetry.B.To instruct children on how to get information.C.To teach students real life skills for the future.D.To force children to obey the government policy.34.What should the teacher do as for the children’s question?A.To consider it offensive. B.To take it seriously.C.To dismiss it as worthless. D.To discuss it after class.35.What’s the writer’s attitude towards poetry learning?A.Objective. B.Supportive. C.Critical. D.Disapproving.第二节(共5小题;每小题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。How to Have a Healthy BrainStaying fit is not just for your body.　36　 Brain fitness is about keeping the mind sharp and preventing cognitive disease (认知上的疾病).You have the ability to develop healthy brain through brain exercise and social interaction.No matter when you start,whether it’s early or late in life,following some simple practices can help in brain health. Learn a new skill.　37　 New skills not only improve memory,but they help the part of the brain that ensures protection of the memories.What’s more,new skills,particularly more difficult skills,are more helpful to brain functions (功能) than easy ones. 　38　 Brain games such as Sudoku and crossword puzzles have been shown to improve connections in the brain.They also have an influence on short-term memory,and have been shown to be good to the brain health.So try to keep your mind as active as possible. Practice memorization (记忆).Work with short goals first.And then try memorizing more difficult lists.It can be the states in the U.S.,or the bones in the human body.　39　 Read and learn new words often.Reading a series of materials—books,magazines or poetry—exercises the brain.　40　 And it has been shown to improve brain and make brain more active in many different parts. A.Challenge yourself.B.Play brain games.C.It is a way to improve mental health.D.It is also important to keep a fit brain.E.Trying to memorize difficult lists helps the brain greatly.F.Learning new words is similar to learning a new language.G.Research has shown that new skills can improve brain functions.第三部分　语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Sitting in front of the computer,she efficiently logs in to her email and social media accounts using her chin (下巴).“I used to be very 　41　.Back then I would never have imagined myself with so many friends,” said Wang Yajing,a woman who is paralyzed (瘫痪) from the neck down. Wang was born in 1992 in Fuyang.Different from other little girls,she was born with cerebral palsy(脑瘫),　42　 to move from the neck down.But Wang did not 　43　 living the life she wanted.In 2008,she 　44　 herself to operate a computer mouse and keyboard with her chin,and began to 　45　 poetry on the computer.For the next eight years,Wang 　46　 unimaginable difficulties and published over 4,000 poems and stories. 　47　 her writing,Wang also devotes herself to people 　48　.She holds lectures and 　49　 people she meets online.She has a lot of friends on all her social media accounts.Whenever they have trouble and need to 　50　,Wang always listens to them 　51　 and encourages them to stay 　52　. “I know I can’t solve their problems,but I am willing to 　53　 their sadness.When they are 　54　 and lose hope,I can be there to stop them,because I know everything will be okay in the end and life is too 　55　 to give up,” said Wang,smiling. 41.A.unique B.awkward C.energetic D.lonely42.A.unfit B.unable C.unwilling D.uncertain43.A.give up B.insist on C.end up D.count on44.A.recommended B.sent C.caught D.reminded45.A.write B.read C.collect D.exchange46.A.overcame B.ignored C.recognized D.found47.A.Instead of B.Due to C.Apart from D.Together with48.A.at work B.in need C.on watch D.under control49.A.comforts B.judges C.attracts D.gathers50.A.respond B.argue C.talk D.recall51.A.curiously B.patiently C.eagerly D.proudly52.A.strong B.healthy C.independent D.young53.A.address B.share C.recognize D.measure54.A.reflecting B.hesitating C.shaking D.suffering55.A.changeable B.brief C.private D.precious第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。A Chinese dance drama has made its global debut on social media platforms abroad,56.

What do you do?M:I’m a nurse.W:It’s a noble job,but not many people like it,especially men.M:That’s true,but I’m able to do it and enjoy my job.Sure,the salary isn’t good and the working hours aren’t always convenient.Sometimes I start work at midnight.W:Then what makes you want to be a nurse?M:I enjoy helping people get well.That’s the part of nursing that I find really satisfying.Besides,there’s a big shortage of male nurses,and that’s really important.(Text 7)W:What are you doing here?M:I’m preparing my fishing tools.W:Are you fond of fishing?M:Yes.I like fishing after school and on Sundays.Well,what’s your hobby?W:I’m very keen on making home movies.I haven’t got a movie camera,but I’ll buy one of my own one day.(Text 8)M:Great party,isn’t it?W:Yes.And the food is wonderful.M:By the way,I’m Tony.W:Hi,Tony.I’m Susan.Nice to meet you.M:Me,too.Are you from the States?W:Actually,I was born in Germany.My dad’s German.But I grew up in New York.How about you?M:Oh,me,I grew up right here in Portland.W:Ah,so you’re a local boy.What do you do?M:Right now I’m in school.How about you?W:I’m an art teacher at Grant High School.M:Really?I’m an art student in college here.I graduate this year.W:No kidding?M:Yes.There’s an exhibition for my graduation next week.I have a couple of paintings in it.Would you like to come?W:I’d love to.That would be excellent.M:Great.The first day is on Monday.It’s at the Art College.(Text 9)M:Betty,whose keys are these?I’ve just found them on my desk.W:They’re not mine,Jack.I saw them this morning after Joe left.He probably forgot them.M:Why did he leave so early?Did he have a class?W:No.When he was playing basketball,he fell and hurt his arm.I’ll see Joe in class this afternoon.I’ll ask him if the keys are his.M:If they aren’t his,maybe they’re my uncle’s.He brought me some cakes this morning,you know.W:That’s right.But he came by car,didn’t he?Then how could he get into his car without his keys?M:Well,they must be somebody else’s.I’m sure he’s looking for the keys now.(Text 10)Hello!
