There are always stories in the life that can hardly be forgotten and will restore our hope for holidays every time we recollect.
Johnny and I, along with our two young sons, Barry and Doyle, lived in a village in southern Alabama in 1979. We had bought the boys a bicycle for the New Year, and had hidden it in the garage ,where Johnny would assemble (组装)it on New Year5 s Eve after the kids fell asleep. But that day, Johnny had to go to Brookley Air Force Base in Mobile, an hour away, to repair a jet. I had my hands busy with baking, preparing for holiday dinner and caring for two energetic boys.
Just as I was making the chocolate cake, a neighbor knocked on the door. It was Beatrice, who was the only person on our road with a telephone. The base had called to say that a heavy tool had come apart suddenly, hitting Johnny's arm and breaking the bone. My brother Otto took me to the base hospital while my mother stayed with the children.
We got there to find Johnny with a cast (石膏)on his arm, anxious to get home regardless of the doctor's orders. It was New Year's Eve, Johnny argued, and he had the bike to assemble for his boys. The doctor said he'd consider dismissing him the next morning if Johnny could find someone to drive him home. On New Year's morning, Johnny called the base and was told everyone was off duty; there was no one to drive him home. Johnny kept making calls. At last, a big blue car with the Air Force sign rolled up.
I was putting dinner on the table when hearing the car. We were thrilled to see Johnny assisted by a uniformed Air Force officer. With Otto's help, Johnny assembled the boy's gift, and they all had a good time that afternoon. Our hearts were full of gratitude to the people who had gone the extra mile to bring us together.

Plastics remain one of the most - used materials for making many things. Things made of plastics can be very strong and last a long time. Plastics are also much lighter than metal and can easily be formed into different shapes. Plastics can take hundreds of years to break down on their own. And very few kinds are highly recyclable.
A team of researchers working at the US Department of Energy says it has created a kind of plastic that could lead to products that are 100 percent recyclable. It recently reported the discovery in a study in the journal Nature Chemistry.
The researchers say the new material is a plastic polymer (聚合体)called polydiketoenamine, or PDK. The team reports the material can be broken down in parts at the molecular (分子的)level. It can then be built up again to form plastics of different shapes, textures and colors. The researchers say this process can be repeated over and over again—without the plastic material losing any performance or quality.
"Most plastics were never made to be recycled, ” lead researcher Peter Christensen said in a statement. " But we have discovered a new way to assemble plastics that takes recycling into consideration from a molecular perspective. ”
Many plastics have different chemicals added to them to make them more useful and powerful. The problem is that these chemicals attach to the monomers (单体),which remain in plastics even after the material gets processed at a recycling plant. The research team reported that, with the newly discovered PDK material, the monomers could be recovered and separated from any chemical additives.
Next, the researchers plan to develop PDK plastics "with a wide range of thermal and mechanical properties. These plastics could be used for many kinds of cloth, as well as things such as 3D printed materials and foams. In addition, the team is trying to include plant - based materials in the process.
28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. Plastics are never highly recyclable.
B. Plastics are widely used in our lives.
C. Plastics have both advantages and disadvantages.
D. Plastics take hundreds of years to be broken down.
29. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The new material. B. The research team.
C. The molecular level. D. The producing process.
30. Why do many plastics have different chemicals added to them?
A. To make them easy to break down.
B. To make them easy to get processed.
C. To make it possible for them to be recycled.
D. To make them stronger and more widely used.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. PDK plastics will be soon put to good use.
B. PDK plastics may have a promising prospect.
C. The researchers are busy developing PDK plastics.
D. Plant - based materials have been used in the new plastics.
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. D 31. B
【解析】

Being able to take advantage of truly unlimited data is a smartphone user's dream, but everyone I've talked to about 5G is more excited about the usage unlocked by next - generation wireless devices. From smart home security to self - driving cars, all the Internet - connected equipment in your life will be able to talk to each other at lightning - fast speed with reduced delay.
"5 G is one of those forerunners, along with artificial intelligence, of this coming data age, ” said Steve Koenig, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. "Self - driving vehicles are emblematic in this data age - they show application of data completely. With one single task, driving, you have large amounts of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors (传感器)are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. It's pulling in data from other vehicles about conditions down the road. There's lots of data behind that task, which is why we need the speed and lower latency ((延迟).
AR glasses and virtual (虚拟的)reality headphones haven't yet been inside the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully saying that such equipment will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to improve - or even replace - smartphones.
Ericsson showed at February's Mobile World Congress in 2019 how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components, the glasses could rely on outside equipment for processing power.
But don't get too excited. There's still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including some necessary testing to make sure the radio plays nicely with basic systems and service construction so that 5G isn, t concentrated only in big cities.
32. What does the first paragraph focus on?
A. Potential of 5G. B. The super speed of 5G.
C. Usage of smart equipment. D. The future of smart equipment.
33. Which word can replace "emblematic" underlined in paragraph 2?
A. available B. productive C. representative D. popular
34. What is tech companies" attitude towards the replacement of smartphones?
A. Uncertain. B. Optimistic. C. Cautious. D. Disapproving.
35. Why does much work still need to be done according to the last paragraph?
A. To make radio play nicely. B. To construct big 5G cities.
C. To do 5G trials effectively. D. To expand 5G coverage fully.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了5G的潜能,工作原理,前景以及科技公司对5G的态度。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段的From smart home security to self - driving cars, all the Internet - connected equipment in your life will be able to talk to each other at lightning - fast speed with reduced delay.可知,所有可以连接网络的设备都能够享受高速运行的服务,故A. Potential of 5G.(5G的潜能)符合以上说法。故选A项。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后的they show application of data completely.(它们淋漓尽致地显示了数据的应用)可推测,自驾车辆在数字时代是最具代表性的。故选C项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段的but tech companies are joyfully saying that such equipment will eventually replace our smartphones.中的joyfully可以推断,科技公司对智能手机被替代这件事是乐观的。故选B项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的to make sure the radio plays nicely with basic systems and service construction so that 5G isn’t concentrated only in big cities.可知,还需做大量工作的目的是让5G不仅仅局限于大城市。D. To expand 5G coverage fully.(为了全面覆盖5G)符合以上说法。故选D项。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能教科书开始进入中国高中课堂。
【61题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:紧接着中央政府把人工智能课程纳入初高中课程的计划,中国第一本人工智能教材上周出版了。分析句子可知,此处是谓语动词,根据last week判断为一般过去时,主语textbook和bring out之间是动宾关系,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是单数。故填was brought。
【62题详解】
考查不定式作定语。句意:紧接着中央政府把人工智能课程纳入初高中课程的计划,中国第一本人工智能教材上周出版了。根据句意可知,此处应译为“……的计划”,所以用不定式作为名词plan的后置定语。故填to include。
【63题详解】

【65题详解】

【66题详解】
考查定语从句。分析句子可知,此处是非限定性定语从句,先行词是Chen Yukun,从句___6___ is also a contributor to the book.缺少主语,故用关系代词who/that,但非限不能用that。故填who。
【67题详解】
考查时态。根据up till now(到目前为止)判断为现在完成时,主语high schools是复数,故用have done。故填have undertaken。

【70题详解】
考查冠词。breakthrough是可数名词,此处译为“一个突破”,且该词是辅音音素开头,故用不定冠词a。故填a。
【点睛】第6小题said Chen Yukun, a professor at East China Normal University, ___6___ is also a contributor to the book.考查定语从句,定语从句解题步骤一般为三部:找出先行词;分析定语从句成分(确定关系词);考虑特殊情况。以本句为例
找出先行词:Chen Yukun
分析定语从句成分(确定关系词);___6___ is also a contributor to the book缺少主语,故用关系代词that/who

My classmates Han Mei and I went to the Palace Museum by taxi on last Saturday. On arrival, I reached for my mobile phone, and I couldn't find it anywhere. Han Mei thought I should have left it in the taxi. Immediately she dialed my number and a taxi driver answered it. He said my mobile phone had left on the back seat of his car and he would drive back to return them. Twenty minutes later, while the driver handed me the phone, I was too grateful that I offered him an extra fee. But he refused with a smile, say that he was very pleased to have helped me.
【答案】classmates→classmate
删除last前的on
and→but
should→must
a→the
had→had
had 后加been
them→it
while→when
too→so
say→saying
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者因为粗心大意把手机落在出租车上,好心的出租车司机把手机送还给她。
【详解】1.考查名词的数。此处的classmate指Han Mei,故应用单数形式。故将classmates改为classmate。
2.考查介词。在表时间的名词前有this/that/these/those/last/next时不用介词。故删除last前的on。
3.考查连词。句意:刚一到,我就伸手去摸手机,但是我找不到它了。根据句意可知,前后句为转折关系。故将and改为but。
4.考查推测句。句意:韩梅认为我一定是把它忘在出租车上了。根据句意可知,此处是表达对过去情况的肯定推测,其结构为must have done。故将should改为must。
5.考查冠词。句意:她立即拨打了我的号码,出租车司机接了电话。联系上下文可知,此处的出租车司机应是特指,应用定冠词。故将a改为the。
6.考查被动语态。主语my mobile phone和 “留下”之间是动宾关系,故用被动语态。故在had后加been 。
7.考查代词。句意:他说我手机被忘在车的后座上了,他回开会来把它还给我。此处还的东西是手机,手机是单数,所以应用it代替。故将them改为it。
8.考查连词。while引导时间状语从句时,应搭配延续性动词;when引导时间状语时,搭配的动词既可以是延续的也可以是瞬间的;句中handed(递)是瞬间动词,故用when引导。故将while改为when。
9.考查副词。句意:20分钟之后,当他把手机递给我的时候,我如此的感激他以至于给了额外的费用。分析句子结构可知,此处考查句型so…that…(如此…以至于…)。故将too 改为so。
10.考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处应用非谓语动词,逻辑主语he和say之间是主动关系,故用现在分词作状语。故将say改为saying。
第二节:书面表达(满分25分)

There are always stories in the life that can hardly be forgotten and will restore our hope for holidays every time we recollect.
Johnny and I, along with our two young sons, Barry and Doyle, lived in a village in southern Alabama in 1979. We had bought the boys a bicycle for the New Year, and had hidden it in the garage ,where Johnny would assemble (组装)it on New Year5 s Eve after the kids fell asleep. But that day, Johnny had to go to Brookley Air Force Base in Mobile, an hour away, to repair a jet. I had my hands busy with baking, preparing for holiday dinner and caring for two energetic boys.
Just as I was making the chocolate cake, a neighbor knocked on the door. It was Beatrice, who was the only person on our road with a telephone. The base had called to say that a heavy tool had come apart suddenly, hitting Johnny's arm and breaking the bone. My brother Otto took me to the base hospital while my mother stayed with the children.
We got there to find Johnny with a cast (石膏)on his arm, anxious to get home regardless of the doctor's orders. It was New Year's Eve, Johnny argued, and he had the bike to assemble for his boys. The doctor said he'd consider dismissing him the next morning if Johnny could find someone to drive him home. On New Year's morning, Johnny called the base and was told everyone was off duty; there was no one to drive him home. Johnny kept making calls. At last, a big blue car with the Air Force sign rolled up.
I was putting dinner on the table when hearing the car. We were thrilled to see Johnny assisted by a uniformed Air Force officer. With Otto's help, Johnny assembled the boy's gift, and they all had a good time that afternoon. Our hearts were full of gratitude to the people who had gone the extra mile to bring us together.
24. What had Johnny planned to do on New Year's Eve?
A. Repair a jet. B. Buy his sons a bike.
C. Prepare a surprise gift. D. Assemble a bike with his sons.
25. Why did Beatrice come to the author's house?
A. To relay a message. B. To make a phone call.
C. To lend out her telephone. D. To take the author to the hospital.

Plastics remain one of the most - used materials for making many things. Things made of plastics can be very strong and last a long time. Plastics are also much lighter than metal and can easily be formed into different shapes. Plastics can take hundreds of years to break down on their own. And very few kinds are highly recyclable.
A team of researchers working at the US Department of Energy says it has created a kind of plastic that could lead to products that are 100 percent recyclable. It recently reported the discovery in a study in the journal Nature Chemistry.
The researchers say the new material is a plastic polymer (聚合体)called polydiketoenamine, or PDK. The team reports the material can be broken down in parts at the molecular (分子的)level. It can then be built up again to form plastics of different shapes, textures and colors. The researchers say this process can be repeated over and over again—without the plastic material losing any performance or quality.
"Most plastics were never made to be recycled, ” lead researcher Peter Christensen said in a statement. " But we have discovered a new way to assemble plastics that takes recycling into consideration from a molecular perspective. ”
Many plastics have different chemicals added to them to make them more useful and powerful. The problem is that these chemicals attach to the monomers (单体),which remain in plastics even after the material gets processed at a recycling plant. The research team reported that, with the newly discovered PDK material, the monomers could be recovered and separated from any chemical additives.
Next, the researchers plan to develop PDK plastics "with a wide range of thermal and mechanical properties. These plastics could be used for many kinds of cloth, as well as things such as 3D printed materials and foams. In addition, the team is trying to include plant - based materials in the process.
28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. Plastics are never highly recyclable.
B. Plastics are widely used in our lives.
C. Plastics have both advantages and disadvantages.
D. Plastics take hundreds of years to be broken down.
29. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The new material. B. The research team.
C. The molecular level. D. The producing process.
30. Why do many plastics have different chemicals added to them?
A. To make them easy to break down.
B. To make them easy to get processed.
C. To make it possible for them to be recycled.
D. To make them stronger and more widely used.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. PDK plastics will be soon put to good use.
B. PDK plastics may have a promising prospect.
C. The researchers are busy developing PDK plastics.
D. Plant - based materials have been used in the new plastics.

Being able to take advantage of truly unlimited data is a smartphone user's dream, but everyone I've talked to about 5G is more excited about the usage unlocked by next - generation wireless devices. From smart home security to self - driving cars, all the Internet - connected equipment in your life will be able to talk to each other at lightning - fast speed with reduced delay.
"5 G is one of those forerunners, along with artificial intelligence, of this coming data age, ” said Steve Koenig, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. "Self - driving vehicles are emblematic in this data age - they show application of data completely. With one single task, driving, you have large amounts of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors (传感器)are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. It's pulling in data from other vehicles about conditions down the road. There's lots of data behind that task, which is why we need the speed and lower latency ((延迟).
AR glasses and virtual (虚拟的)reality headphones haven't yet been inside the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully saying that such equipment will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to improve - or even replace - smartphones.
Ericsson showed at February's Mobile World Congress in 2019 how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components, the glasses could rely on outside equipment for processing power.
But don't get too excited. There's still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including some necessary testing to make sure the radio plays nicely with basic systems and service construction so that 5G isn, t concentrated only in big cities.
32. What does the first paragraph focus on?
A. Potential of 5G. B. The super speed of 5G.
C. Usage of smart equipment. D. The future of smart equipment.
33. Which word can replace "emblematic" underlined in paragraph 2?
A. available B. productive C. representative D. popular
34. What is tech companies" attitude towards the replacement of smartphones?
A. Uncertain. B. Optimistic. C. Cautious. D. Disapproving.
35. Why does much work still need to be done according to the last paragraph?
A. To make radio play nicely. B. To construct big 5G cities.
C. To do 5G trials effectively. D. To expand 5G coverage fully.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了5G的潜能,工作原理,前景以及科技公司对5G的态度。
【32题详解】

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能教科书开始进入中国高中课堂。
【61题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:紧接着中央政府把人工智能课程纳入初高中课程的计划,中国第一本人工智能教材上周出版了。分析句子可知,此处是谓语动词,根据last week判断为一般过去时,主语textbook和bring out之间是动宾关系,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是单数。故填was brought。
【62题详解】
考查不定式作定语。句意:紧接着中央政府把人工智能课程纳入初高中课程的计划,中国第一本人工智能教材上周出版了。根据句意可知,此处应译为“……的计划”,所以用不定式作为名词plan的后置定语。故填to include。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处用非谓语动词,逻辑主语textbook和name(命名)之间是动宾关系,故用过去分词形式。故填named。
【64题详解】
考查名词的数。scholar(学者)是可数名词,联系上下句此处应是很多学者编写了这本书,故用复数形式。故填scholars。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。分析句子可知,句中use是名词,应用形容词修饰。故填practical。
【66题详解】
考查定语从句。分析句子可知,此处是非限定性定语从句,先行词是Chen Yukun,从句___6___ is also a contributor to the book.缺少主语,故用关系代词who/that,但非限不能用that。故填who。
【67题详解】
考查时态。根据up till now(到目前为止)判断为现在完成时,主语high schools是复数,故用have done。故填have undertaken。
【68题详解】
考查介词。句意:到目前为止,已经有大约40所高中通过把教科书引入课程承担起了第一批人工智能高校试点工程。根据句意可知,此处应译为“通过引入教科书进课程”,表达“通过”常用介词by。故填by。
【69题详解】
考查副词。分析句子可知,此处是修饰前面的整个句子,故用副词形式。故填globally。
【70题详解】
考查冠词。breakthrough是可数名词,此处译为“一个突破”,且该词是辅音音素开头,故用不定冠词a。故填a。
【点睛】第6小题said Chen Yukun, a professor at East China Normal University, ___6___ is also a contributor to the book.考查定语从句,定语从句解题步骤一般为三部:找出先行词;分析定语从句成分(确定关系词);考虑特殊情况。以本句为例
找出先行词:Chen Yukun
分析定语从句成分(确定关系词);___6___ is also a contributor to the book缺少主语,故用关系代词that/who
考虑特殊情况:本句为非限制性定语从句,故排除that,用who。

My classmates Han Mei and I went to the Palace Museum by taxi on last Saturday. On arrival, I reached for my mobile phone, and I couldn't find it anywhere. Han Mei thought I should have left it in the taxi. Immediately she dialed my number and a taxi driver answered it. He said my mobile phone had left on the back seat of his car and he would drive back to return them. Twenty minutes later, while the driver handed me the phone, I was too grateful that I offered him an extra fee. But he refused with a smile, say that he was very pleased to have helped me.
【答案】classmates→classmate
删除last前的on
and→but
should→must
a→the
had→had
had 后加been
them→it
while→when
too→so
say→saying
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者因为粗心大意把手机落在出租车上,好心的出租车司机把手机送还给她。
【详解】1.考查名词的数。此处的classmate指Han Mei,故应用单数形式。故将classmates改为classmate。
2.考查介词。在表时间的名词前有this/that/these/those/last/next时不用介词。故删除last前的on。
3.考查连词。句意:刚一到,我就伸手去摸手机,但是我找不到它了。根据句意可知,前后句为转折关系。故将and改为but。
4.考查推测句。句意:韩梅认为我一定是把它忘在出租车上了。根据句意可知,此处是表达对过去情况的肯定推测,其结构为must have done。故将should改为must。
5.考查冠词。句意:她立即拨打了我的号码,出租车司机接了电话。联系上下文可知,此处的出租车司机应是特指,应用定冠词。故将a改为the。
6.考查被动语态。主语my mobile phone和 “留下”之间是动宾关系,故用被动语态。故在had后加been 。
7.考查代词。句意:他说我手机被忘在车的后座上了,他回开会来把它还给我。此处还的东西是手机,手机是单数,所以应用it代替。故将them改为it。
8.考查连词。while引导时间状语从句时,应搭配延续性动词;when引导时间状语时,搭配的动词既可以是延续的也可以是瞬间的;句中handed(递)是瞬间动词,故用when引导。故将while改为when。
9.考查副词。句意:20分钟之后,当他把手机递给我的时候,我如此的感激他以至于给了额外的费用。分析句子结构可知,此处考查句型so…that…(如此…以至于…)。故将too 改为so。
10.考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处应用非谓语动词,逻辑主语he和say之间是主动关系,故用现在分词作状语。故将say改为saying。
