What is this passage probably taken from?‎ A. A science magazine. B. A tour guide. C. A news report. D. A geography book.‎ B Both of my parents worked full-time when I was a little girl, so my grandmother would stay at our house during the day. We would watch game shows in the living room. Our favorite show was The Price is ‎ Right. We would call our answer along with the contestants. Laughter filled the tiny but warm house.‎ When I got older and started going to school, we couldn’t watch our game shows together regularly. That was okay with me, though, because one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake cakes. Watching her in the kitchen was amazing: she walked around the kitchen, busy but delighted. she never seemed to need the recipes(食谱) and everything she made tasted delicious.‎ At first I would just sit in the kitchen and watch. Even though I didn’t understand what she was doing, I really enjoyed watching her and waiting for the cakes. As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring the sugar. The day she let me separate the eggs, I felt like I had found complete pleasure Later my parents decided that I could take care of myself and my grandmother stopped coming over every day. The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself,and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes.More often they turned out pretty well. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice and she would always give lots of useful advice patiently. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too.I felt like I could talk to her about anything.‎ My grandmother passed away ten years ago, but I still think of her every day. Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me in her bedroom. It included her recipes for brownies, cookies and my favorite, lemon pie. As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her voice and see her smile. She was the one who taught me not just about baking. but about life.‎ I would never forget my loving grandmother and the"treasure"she had given me.‎ ‎48.While helping her grandmother bake, the writer .‎ A .turned out to be a troublemaker B. found it interesting and attractive C. hoped to make a living by baking D. regretted missing the game shows ‎49. The underlined word"thorny”in Paragraph 4 most probably means .‎ A. wonderful B.special C .dangerous D. difficult ‎50. From the recipe book the writer found, we can infer that her grandmother .‎ A. knew the writer's taste well B. taught the writer some life lessons C. wanted to sell the recipe for money D. thought the writer was unable to bake C I live in Mentone, a quiet, simple, restful place, where the rich never come. I met Theophile Magnan, a retired, rich, old man from Lyons yesterday, in the Hotel des Anglais. Theophile looked sad and dreamy, and didn’t talk with anybody else, which brought me back to the past.‎ A long time ago, Francois Millet, Claude, Carl and I were young artists—very young artists—in fact.‎ Yes, Francois Millet, the great French artist, was my friend.‎ Millet wasn’t any greater than we were at that time. He didn’t have any fame（名气）, even in his own village. We were all poor though we had stacks and stacks of as good pictures as anybody in Europe painted. Once a person ever offered four francs（法郎）for Millet’s “Angelus”, which he wanted to sell for eight.‎ It was a fact in human history that a great artist would never be well-known until after he was starved（挨饿） and dead. His pictures climbed to high prices after his death.‎ Then we made a decision that one of us must die, to save the others and himself.‎ Millet was elected（推选）—elected to die.‎ During the next three months, Millet painted with all his might, enlarged his stock all he could, not pictures, no! sketches, studies, parts of studies, fragments of studies, of course, with his cipher on them. They were the things to be sold.‎ Carl went to Paris to start the work of building up Millet’s name. Claude and I went to sell Millet’s small pictures and to build up his name as well.‎ We made Millet a master. I always said to my customer, “I am a fool to sell a picture of Francois Millet’s at all, for he is not going to live three months, and when he dies his pictures can’t be had for love or money.” Claude and I took care to spread that little fact as far as we could.‎ Carl made friends with the correspondents, and got Millet’s condition reported to England and all over the continent, and America, and everywhere.‎ The sad end came at last, Millet died, not really. He became Theophile Magnan.‎ The pictures went up. There’s a man in Paris today who owns seventy Millet pictures. He paid us two million francs for them. Do you still remember the “Angelus”? Carl sold it for twenty-two hundred francs. And as for the bushels of sketches and studies which Millet produced in the last six weeks, well, it would surprise you to know the figure we sell them at nowadays.‎ We are no longer artists and Millet dead.‎ ‎51.Why did the four friends decide to elect one of them to die?‎ A.They wanted to be rich. B.They wanted to be famous.‎ C.They wanted to save money. D.They wanted to be respected.‎ ‎52.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the passage?‎ A.The writer lives a busy life in Mentone. B.Millet was finally made a famous artist.‎ C.Millet painted best among the four friends. D.The story was written in memory of Millet.‎ ‎53.What made the four friends’ plan succeed?‎ A.That they didn’t want to be artists any longer. ‎ B.That Millet’s pictures were sold at very high prices. ‎ C.People’s attitude towards the artists who were starving. ‎ D.People’s desire to own valuable art works at low prices. ‎ D New App Helps People Remember Faces ‎    Large gatherings such as weddings and meetings can be socially Q flooded with people. Learning ‎ people's names only adds to the stress. A new facial-recognition app could come to the rescue, but experts suggest people should be careful while using it. ‎ ‎    The app, called SocialRecall, connects names with faces through smartphone cameras and facial recognition（识别）, avoiding the need for formal introductions. "It breaks down these social barriers we all have when meeting somebody, "says Barry Sandrew, who created the app and tested it at an event attended by about 1, 000 people. ‎ ‎    After receiving an invitation to download SocialRecall from an event organizer, the user is asked to take two selfies and sign in through social media. At the event, the app is active within a previously set geographical area. When a user points his or her phone camera at an attendee's face, the app identifies（识别） the person, displays the person's name, and links to his or her social media information. To protect Privacy（隐私）, it recognizes only those who have agreed to use. And the app's creators say it automatically removes users' data after an event. ‎ ‎    Ann Cavoukian, an expert who runs the Privacy by Design Center of Excellence praises the app's creators for these protective measures. She added, however, that when people choose to share their personal information with the app, they should know that "there may be unexpected results down the road with that information being used in another situation that might come back to bite you."‎ ‎    The start-up project has developed the app for people who suffer from prosopagnosia, or "face blindness, "a condition that prevents people from recognizing people they have met. To use this app, a person first receives an image of someone's face, from either the smartphone's camera or a photograph, and then tags it with a name. When the camera spots or recognizes that same face in real life, the previously entered information is displayed. The collected data are stored only on a user's phone, according to the team behind the app. ‎ ‎54.Social Recall is used to _______. ‎ A. take photos B. identify people C. organize events D. make friends ‎55.Paragraph 3 is mainly about _______.‎ A. how the app works B. how the app was created ‎ C. what makes the app popular D. what people can do with the app ‎56.SocialRecall helps people with prosopagnosia by _______.‎ A. giving names to the photos kept in their smartphones B. collecting information previously entered in the phone C. providing the information of a person when they first meet D. showing the person's information when it spots a stored face ‎57.What can we learn about SocialRecall from the passage? ‎ A. It may put people's personal information at risk. B. It has caused many unexpected results. C. It can stop people recognizing people they have met. D. It is praised by users for its protective measures.‎ 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共40分）‎ 五、词汇运用 （本大题共8小题，每小题1分，共8分）‎ ‎(A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。.‎ 58.

However, when we grow up, we start to learn new things about life, especially that love doesn’t always win, and that a frog is just a frog. Even so, our love for fairy tales never dies. Just look at cartoons like The Lion King and Frozen which have millions of fans young and old.‎ ‎“Fairy tales are always there because they are the stories of our lives in the purest form.” wrote US writer Laura Packer. “They are stories of love and loss, happiness and sadness, riches and dreams.”‎ Fairy tales are all about the real world. But if children only see just one side of life, adults usually see the other. For example, in the 2014 film Maleficent, we’re told the tale of Sleeping Beauty from the views of the evil queen. Unlike the children’s version (版本) of the story, we see that the queen wasn’t an evil at birth. Instead, she experiences great lossers, leading to her “evil” side. And in US writer James Garner’s bedtime story books, he tells the classic story of Little Red Riding Hood, but with a modern touch: When the wolf tells Red Riding Hood that it isn’t safe for a little girl to walk through the woods alone, she calls ‎ the wolf sexist (性别歧视者), which connects with today’s women’s rights movement.‎ It looks like fairy tales aren’t just stories our parents read us at bedtime. They may usually start with “Once upon a time…”, but as we grow older, we learn that every story doesn’t always need a “Happily ever after” to be a good one.‎ Learning From Fairy Tales Introduction We get our lessons from fairy tales at our early age.‎ Fairy tales are mainly stories that come from our daily lives．‎ Fairy tales are 72_________ among millions of people young and old.‎ Different ideas Children think the queen in Sleeping Beauty is a 73_________evil.‎ Adults think that the queen’s experience 74_________ her evil side.‎ The wolf thinks it dangerous for Red Riding Hood to walk through the woods by 75__________.‎ James Garner thinks of the wolf as a sexist.‎ Conclusion Fairy tales are more than stories our parents read us at bedtime.‎ Not every fairy story needs a happy 76_________.‎ 八、完成句子 按所给的汉语，用英语完成下列句子，并将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。（本大题共6小题，每小题1分，共6分）‎ 77. 据说人工智能(AI) 能够以任何方式帮助我们提升生活品质。‎ It is said that AI can help us __________________________________________.‎ 78. 相信我，你早晚会意识到和别人和睦相处是多么重要。‎ Believe me. You’ll realize ____________________________________________others sooner or ‎ later.‎ 77. 虽然他尽了最大的努力学习画画，但是进步却很少。‎ Though he tried his best to learn painting, he__________________________it.‎ 78. 在日本旅游期间，他们碰巧遇到了一个不知名的科学家。‎ During their visit in Japan, they ___________________________________.‎ 79. 我父母自结婚以来一直很相爱。 ‎ My parents _________________________ since they got married.‎ 80. 如果你认为这个节目太传统不值得一提，那你就大错特错了。‎ If you think the program is __________________________________, you are completely wrong.‎ 九、书面表达（本大题共15分）‎ 假定你是李华，你的美国朋友Amy 发邮件来询问有关武汉新型冠状病毒（novel coronavirus），他该如何保护自己远离病毒以及你最近的情况。请根据 Amy 的邮件进行回复，可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 词数 90 左右，开头和结尾都已给出，不计入总数。提示词：口罩 mask Dear Li Hua How are you doing these days?
