Read on to find the answer. Venice This iconic city is sinking rapidly. The canals that make up the streets of Venice rise 2mm every year, making relics of history go under the surface of water and destroying architecture. Experts warn that without intervention(干预), this city will disappear back into the water at an even faster rate, consumed by rising sea level from melting polar ice caps. Machu Picchu These iconic ruins have drawn adventurous tourists into the mountains of South America.The forces of natural erosion(侵蚀)have been accelerated by tourism and this landmark faces severe influence from increasing foot traffic. The Peruvian government recently suggested a cable car that would cut out the intense hike up to the ruins, making the site instantly accessible to millions but the future of Machu Picchu remains uncertain. Glacier National park Perhaps you've heard that the ice caps are melting. But nowhere is more apparent in the United States than in Glacier National Park.Estimates indicate that the glaciers that are part of the beauty of this national landmark will disappear entirely in the next two decades. The Great Barrier Reef Hidden from view beneath the waves, the Great Barrier Reef has been rapidly dying off. Nearly fifty percent of coral which once occupied a large area is gone,destroyed by pollution and disease. 1. What can we learn about Machu Picchu? A. It's famous for cable cars. B. It has no convenient traffic. C. It's well preserved by the locals. D. It bears a heavy burden of tourism. 2. Which place probably needs visitors to dive into the water to enjoy its beauty? A. Venice. B. Machu Picchu. C. Glacier National Park. D. The Great Barrier Reef. 3. What do the above attractions have in common? A. They all have a long history. B. They're all threatened by climate. C. They're all in danger of disappearing. D. They're all well-known for natural scenery. 【答案】1. D 2. D 3. C 【解析】 这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了面临着消失危险的四个著名景点。 【1 题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Machu Picchu 部分下的 The forces of natural erosion(侵蚀)have been accelerated by tourism and this landmark faces severe influence from increasing foot traffic. The Peruvian government recently suggested a cable car that would cut out the intense hike up to the ruins, making the site instantly accessible to millions but the future of Machu Picchu remains uncertain.(旅游业加速了自然侵蚀，这个具有里程碑意义的地方正面临着步行带来的严重影响。秘鲁政府 最近建议使用缆车，这样就可以减少到遗址的徒步旅行，让数百万人立即进入遗址，但马丘比丘的未来仍 不确定。)可知，因为巨大的旅游负担，马丘比丘遗址受到了人类步行参观时所带来的毁灭性影响。D. It bears a heavy burden of tourism.(它承受着旅游业带来的巨大压力。)符合以上说法，故选 D 项。 【2 题详解】 推理判断题。根据 The Great Barrier Reef 部分下的 Hidden from view beneath the waves, the Great Barrier Reef has been rapidly dying off.(隐藏在波浪之下，大堡礁正在迅速消亡。)可推测，游客需要潜入海中才能领略大 堡礁的美。故选 D 项。 【3 题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Venice 部分下的 This iconic city is sinking rapidly.和 this city will disappear back into the water at an even faster rate 可知，威尼斯正在迅速下沉，将以很快的速度被海水淹没；根据 Machu Picchu 部分下的 The forces of natural erosion(侵蚀)have been accelerated by tourism and this landmark faces severe influence from increasing foot traffic.可知，过重的旅游负担正在加速马丘比丘的自然侵蚀；根据 Glacier National park 部分 下的 Perhaps you’ve heard that the ice caps are melting.可知，冰川国家公园正在融化；根据 The Great Barrier Reef 部分下的 Hidden from view beneath the waves, the Great Barrier Reef has been rapidly dying off. 可知，大 堡礁正在迅速消亡。即文章提到的四个景点所面临的共同问题是，它们都有消失的危险。C. They’re all in danger of disappearing.(它们都面临着消失的危险)符合以上说法，故选 C 项。 B When Central Bucks South became one of the first Philadelphia-area high schools to close due to fear of novel coronavirus exposure in early March, 16-year-old sophomore Andrew Chen knew that things were not going to return to normal as quickly as some of his peers hoped. But still, the change from seeing his friends on the swim team during daily practices to learning alone at home was jarring. "I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted," Chen said. The coronavirus has upended everyone's lives, but for students, the disruption feels particularly acute. Schools closed and graduation ceremonies were canceled. Summer plans, like camps and internships (实习)，are up in the air. But right now, many students are trying to stay connected, struggling with misinformation, and figuring out the best ways they can help through online method. For Josh Harycki, 17, a senior student at the Ship-ley School in Philadelphia, the best way to contribute was to create a "social distancing pledge (承诺)" for young people. "I saw a lot of younger generations not paying attention," he said. "They were still going out, hanging out with people. I thought that there had to be a way to reach younger folks, who were probably not watching the news." Harycki launched a call to action on social media and then built a website with a map that tracked the locations of people who'd signed the pledge. The site also shares links to accurate sources of information like the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can't connect with their friends in the same way, so he created the social distancing pledge to stress that while everyone might be physically distant, they're still connected. "Part of what we're highlighting is that you might feel like you're the only one taking this seriously, but our map shows that you're not alone," he said. 4. What does the underlined word "jarring" in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. natural B. disturbing C. necessary D. reasonable 5. Why does the author describe Andrew Chen's experience in the text? A. To show how the coronavirus affected students' lives. B. To explain what worried students most when schools closed. C. To illustrate the appropriate reaction to the closure of school. D. To present the different views of students toward the coronavirus. 6. Who does Harycki mainly want to reach out to? A. Friends who are worried and bored. B. Folks taking the coronavirus seriously. C. Younger generations trying to contribute. D. Young people who are not aware of the situation. 7. What's Harycki's purpose in creating the "social distancing pledge"? A. To convince young people to stay at home. B. To track those people infected with the coronavirus. C. To inform young folks of latest news about the coronavirus. D. To show young people they shouldn't be concerned about the coronavirus. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述在新冠病毒期间，学生在家自学，学生 Harycki 建立网站努力保持学生们相互 联系，消除同龄人担心他们不能与朋友联系的担忧，向同龄人传递虽然每个人可能在身体距离上是遥远的， 但他们仍然是联系在一起的。 【4 题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文 "I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted," Chen said. (陈说：“我在 Central Bucks South 只有三年的时间，看到它们中的一年被浪费了，我很痛苦。”) 由 此可推知前一句的句意为：但是，从每天在游泳队上看到他的朋友们练习到独自在家学习，这种变化仍然 让他感到担忧。故划线词 jarring 与 B 项“令人担忧的”意思相近。故选 B。 【5 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段 16-year-old sophomore Andrew Chen knew that things were not going to return to normal as quickly as some of his peers hoped.(16 岁的大二学生安德鲁 ·陈知道事情不会像一些同龄人所希望 的那样迅速恢复正常。)和第二段的“I only have three years here at South, and it pains me to see one of them being wasted,” Chen said.( 陈说：“我在南方只有三年的时间，其中一年被浪费让我很痛苦。) 结合下文 The coronavirus has changed everyone’s lives, but for students, the disruption feels particularly serious. ( 冠状病毒改 变了每个人的生活，但对学生来说，这种破坏感觉特别严重。)可推断，作者描述安德鲁陈的经历是为了说 明冠状病毒如何影响学生的生活。故选 A。 【6 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段的 I thought that there had to be a way to reach younger folks, who were probably not watching the news. ( 我想应该有办法联系到年轻人，他们可能不看新闻。) 可知，Harycki 想要联系没有意 识到这种情况的年轻人。故选 D。 【7 题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段 Harycki knows that his peers are worried they can't connect with their friends in the same way, so he created the social distancing pledge to stress that while everyone might be physically distant, they're still connected.可知，Harycki 知道他的同龄人担心他们不能以同样的方式与朋友联系，所以他创建了 social distancing pledge 来强调虽然每个人可能在物理距离上都很遥远，但他们仍然保持联系。由此可 知，Harycki 创建"social distancing pledge"的目的是说服年轻人待在家里，即使他们和朋友不在一起，也是有 联系的。故选 A。 C Once a circle missed a wedge (楔子). The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly, it admired the flowers along the way. It chatted with worms. It enjoyed the sunshine. Finally it found a piece that fit perfectly. It was so happy. Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice flowers or talk to the worms. When it realized how different the world seemed when it rolled so quickly, it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away. In some strange sense we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything is in some ways a poor man. He will never know what it feels like to yearn, to hope, to nourish(滋润) his soul with the dream of something better. He will never know the experience of having someone who loves him give him something he has always wanted or never had. There is wholeness about the person who has come to terms with his limitations, who has been brave enough to let go of his unrealistic dreams and does not feel like a failure for doing so. There is wholeness about the man or woman who has learned that he or she is strong enough to go through a tragedy(悲剧) and survive — he or she can lose someone and still feel like a complete person. Life is more like a baseball season, when even the best team loses one third of its games and even the worst team has its days of brilliance. Our goal is to win more games than we lose. When we accept that imperfection is part of being human, and when we can continue rolling through life and appreciate it, we will have achieved wholeness that others can only long for. 8. Which may be an example of being whole? A. A person has everything. B. A person accepts his or her limitations. C. A person loves someone and is loved. D. A person feels blue for dropping unrealistic goals. 9. How is a baseball season similar to life? A. Easy come, easy go. B. Failure is the mother of success. C. Energy and persistence conquer all things. D. Some battles you win and some battles you lose. 10. How does the author clarify his idea? A. Mainly by comparing. B. Mainly by reasoning. C. Mainly by informing. D. Mainly by arguing. 11. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Pursue perfection in life B. Be whole in life C. Life without mistakes is whole D. No pains, no gains 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章以一个小故事引出话题——人生不在于完美, 而在于完整。 【8 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段 There is wholeness about the person who has come to terms with his limitations, who has been brave enough to let go of his unrealistic dreams and does not feel like a failure for doing so.(人生的完整性在于一个人知道如何面对他的缺陷，如何勇敢地摒弃那些不现实的幻想而又 不以此为缺憾)可知一个人接受他或她的缺陷，可能是“完整”的例子。故选 B。 【9 题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段 Life is more like a baseball season, when even the best team loses one third of its games and even the worst team has its days of brilliance. Our goal is to win more games than we lose. (人生更像是一个棒球赛季，即使最好的球队也会输掉三分之一的比赛，而最差的球 队也有春风得意的时候。我们的目标是赢的比赛比输的多)可知棒球赛季和生活的相似之处在于你有输有 赢。故选 D。 【10 题详解】 推理判断题。第二段内容(人生“完美”的人)和第三段内容(人生完整的人)作对比; 最后一段又拿 baseball season 和 life 作比较, 因此作者主要是通过作对比和作比较的方法来澄清他的观点的。故选 A。 【11 题详解】 主旨大意题。本文作者通过圆和楔子的小故事感悟出这样的道理:从某种奇怪的意义上讲,当我们失去某些东 西的时候,我们反而会更加完整,人生不在于完美而在于完整。因此不管是从故事内容还是从其诠释的人生哲 理上，B 项“完整的生命”作标题是最佳的。故选 B。 D Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are compounds(化合物;复合物) that are set to solve some tough challenges: producing water in the desert, removing greenhouse gases from the air and storing dangerous gases more safely. The Arizona desert is really dry. Anyone stuck in it without water would die from dehydration (脱水) within three days, unless he had one of Omar Yaghi's next-generation water harvesters, who is a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley. Although daytime wetness is only about 10 percent, this rises to 40 percent at night, which means there's enough water in the atmosphere to support life - if it can be transformed into liquid form. That's exactly what Yaghi's invention does. It's about the size of a small microwave oven, designed to suck the water from the air at night and turn it into drinking water the next day using only the heat of the sun as its power source. What makes it work is a special material called a MOF, which at normal temperatures attracts water molecules (分子) onto the surface of its internal small holes. Warm it up and get the water, each harvest producing one-third of a cup of pure drinking water. "A device the size of a washing machine could produce enough water for the basic needs of a household," says Yaghi. These crystalline (结晶的) groups of metals linked by organic molecules can be made into materials with an extremely high absorption ability, attracting specific molecules to their surfaces. In this way, MOFs cling to a variety of liquids and gases. MOFs work thanks to their distinctive structure. In fact, one MOF the size of a sugar cube has so many small holes that they would cover an area as large as six football fields. MOFs are also extremely stable, light and have many different uses: their molecular structure can be varied to attract specific molecules. Adding a small amount of heat or pressure causes the MOF to give what it's holding. More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications. 12. Why is the Arizona desert mentioned in the second paragraph? A. To introduce water harvesters. B. To stress the importance of water. C. To show the severity of its condition. D. To express the urgent need for water there. 13. What plays a vital role in water harvesters? A. Solar energy. B. Water molecules. C. Metal-organic frameworks. D. MOFs' internal small holes. 14. Which can explain the phrase "cling to" underlined in paragraph 4? A. Give off. B. Tum into. C. Hold onto. D. Break down. 15. What will probably be covered in the following paragraphs? A. The future of the MOF technology. B. Other uses of the MOF technology. C. The improvement to the MOF technology. D. Possible limitations of the MOF technology. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了金属有机骨架(MOFs)的用途，结构和性能。 【12 题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段“The Arizona desert is really dry. Anyone stuck in it without water would die from dehydration ( 脱 水 ) within three days. Unless, that is, they had one of Omar Yaghi’s next-generation water harvesters.”可知，亚利桑那沙漠非常干燥。任何没有水的人都会在三天内死于脱水。除非他们有奥马尔·亚 吉的下一代水收集器，所以奥马尔·亚吉的下一代水收集器可以解决沙漠中缺水的问题。故判断出第二段 提到亚利桑那沙漠是为了介绍水收集器。故选 A 。 【13 题详解】 .细节理解题。由第三段“What makes it work is a special material called a metal-organic framework (MOF)...” 可知，使它工作的是一种称为有机框架(MOF)的特殊的材料，所以金属有机框架在水收集器中起着至关重要 的作用。故选 C。 【14 题详解】 词句猜测题。由第四段“These crystalline cluster(结晶群)of metals, such as aluminum or magnesium, linked by organic molecules can be made into materials with an extremely high absorption ability, attracting specific molecules to their surface. In this way, MOFs cling to a variety of liquids and gases.”可知，这些由有机分子连接 的金属结晶群，例如铝或镁，可制成具有极高吸收能力的材料，将特定分子吸到其表面。可知划线词所在 的句子意思是 MOF 就是通过这种方式紧紧吸附各种液体和气体。 第四段中划线词"cling to"意思是 hold onto“紧紧抓住”的意思。故选 C。 【15 题详解】 推 理 判 断 题 。 由 最 后 一 段 “More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications.”可知迄今为止，已有七万多种不同的 MOF 被生产用于各类实际应用中，所以我们通过短文最 后一段的内容可以判断出，接下来的段落可能会涉及 MOF 科技的其它用途。故选 B。 【点睛】根据上一段的内容来判断下一段的内容是解决判断题的重要的切入点。这一般适用于推测短文最 后一段之后段落的内容。在这样的判断出，短文最后一段通常会以问题的方式留下疑问，或者以陈述句的 形式给读者留下一个悬而未决的问题。这个时候以问题的方式留下疑问或者以陈述句的形式给读者留下一 个悬而未决的问题就是下一段要讨论的内容。由最后段“More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications.”可知迄今为止，已有七万多种不同的 MOF 被生产用于各类实际应用中。所 以我们通过短文最后段的内容可以判断出，以下段落可能会涉及 MOF 科技的其它用途。故小题 4 的正确选 项为 B 选项。 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Is it true that British people have a different sense of humor than people in other countries? Let’s have a look at what we laugh at in Britain. ___16___ It’s not just politicians who make us laugh, but anyone whose job is to tell other people what to do and who takes themselves too seriously. We laugh at authority, but also sympathetically laugh with anyone who we think is treated badly. ____17____ Our clowns are often silly people doing silly things—Mr Bean, for example—while in America, they are often clever people doing clever things and winning. The fact that we laugh when other people might feel hopeless is one of the oddest things to appreciate about British humor. We do have a strong sense of irony (反讽). “Not very pleasant,” we might say after some terrible experience. ____18____ “It’s a bit windy today” we might say in the middle of a typhoon, or “There’s a slight problem,” when something has gone very seriously wrong. ____19____ Another thing that can make it difficult to understand British humor is that we don’t always laugh or even smile when we say something funny. ____20____ Do you think the British sense of humor is unique? A. In addition,we tend to play things down. B. We often keep a straight face even when we’re making a joke. C. Culture plays a big part in how funny you may find something. D. We know they can’ t win,but if they do so sometimes,it’s even funnier. E. Brits don’t express extreme feelings;we just“keep calm and carry on”. F. Brits turn to laughter as a form of medicine when life knocks them down. G. To the British,powerful and important people are often sources of laughter. 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. A 19. E 20. B 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英式幽默的特点。 【16 题详解】 根据下文 It’s not just politicians who make us laugh, but anyone whose job is to tell other people what to do and who takes themselves too seriously.(让我们发笑的不仅是政客，还有那些以告诉别人该做什么为职责的人以及 那些把自己看得太严肃的人)可知这里指出了在英国，哪些人会让人们发笑。该空引出下文，G 选项“对英 国人来说，有权有势的人物常常是笑料”切题，选项中的 powerful and important people 对应下文中的 politicians，故选 G。 【17 题详解】 根据上文 We laugh at authority, but also sympathetically laugh with anyone who we think is treated badly.(我们会 嘲笑权威，但也会同情地笑那些我们认为受到虐待的人)可知这里谈论了受虐待的弱者。该空承接上文，指 出我们如何从弱者那里获得欢笑，D 选项“我们知道他们不可能赢，但如果他们有时赢了，那就更有趣了” 切题，选项中的 they 指代上文中的 anyone who we think is treated badly，故选 D。 【18 题详解】 根据下文 “It’s a bit windy today” we might say in the middle of a typhoon, or “There’s a slight problem,” when something has gone very seriously wrong.(“今天有点风”，我们可能会在台风中说，或者当一些事情变得非 常严重的时候，说“有个小问题”)可知英国人在淡化一些严重的事情。该空引出下文，A 选项“此外，我 们倾向于淡化一些事情”切题，下文是对选项的举例说明，故选 A。 【19 题详解】 根据上文“It’s a bit windy today” we might say in the middle of a typhoon, or “There’s a slight problem,” when something has gone very seriously wrong.(“今天有点风”，我们可能会在台风中说，或者当一些事情变得非 常严重的时候，说“有个小问题”)可知英国人不表达极端的感情。该空承接上文，E 选项“英国人不表达 极端的情绪，我们只是保持冷静，继续下去”切题，故选 E。 【20 题详解】 上文 Another thing that can make it difficult to understand British humor is that we don’t always laugh or even smile when we say something funny. 说另一件让我们很难理解英式幽默的事情是，当我们说一些有趣的事情 时，我们并不总是笑，甚至不笑。该空承接上文，进一步指出英国人在开玩笑的时候，也经常板着脸，B 选 项“即使在开玩笑的时候，我们也经常板着脸”切题，选项中 straight face 对应上文中的 don’t always laugh or even smile，故选 B。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分 30 分) 第一节 完形填空(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分，满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项。 The majority of people are convinced that they don’t have much imagination.

So, we took look at several houses, yet as our funds were limited, none of the houses in our price range seemed satisfactory. One agent recommended a house in particular. Although her description of the house sounded very wonderful, the price was beyond our range, so we declined. However, she kept urging us to have a look at least. We finally agreed and went to take a look. It was lovely at first sight. It was small but charming, overlooking a quiet beautiful lake. Walking through the rooms and talking with the owners, a kind and hospitable elderly couple, we felt the warmth and happiness of the marriage within that house. It was exactly the house we wanted! Perfect as it was, the price remained much too high for us. But every day, we could sit by the lake, looking at the house and dreaming of what it would be like to live there. Days later, we made an offer, which was far below the asking price. As the price was so low, we were afraid that they would laugh it off. Surprisingly, they didn't laugh at us. They renewed their offer instead. It was also much more than we could actually afford, but far less than the original asking price. The next day, we got a disappointing message that another buyer offered a much higher price. Even so, we made up our minds to talk with the owners directly. We made our final offer, which was still thousands of dollars less than the other buyer's bid. We knew it, yet we decided to have a try. Nobody knew if we could get it. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Paragraph 1: We went to the owners' home, only to find the other buyer visiting the owners too. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The owner looked at us and said, ''I decide to sell my house to you!

'' The buyer said ''Because it is near the city. I want to buy it for investment. I can rent it to earn money... '' the owner thought for a while and then looked at him and said. ''I'm sorry, sir. I can't sell my house to you, because I am looking for someone who truly loves my house, not just for money.'' The owner looked at us and said, ''I decide to sell my house to you! '' Then he explained: He'd seen us sitting by the lake all those times; he knew how much we loved the place and that wed appreciate the years of work they had put into their home; he realized he would take a loss by selling it to us. but it was worthwhile; we were the people they wanted to live there. He told us to consider the difference in the price ''an early wedding present. '' That's how we found our home and how I learned that when people are kind, they are not strangers, only friends we haven't yet met. 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇读后续写。本篇主要讲述了作者和丈夫去购买新婚用的房子。他们看上了一套房子，但中介告诉 他们有人比他们的出价更高。抱着试一试的态度，他们决定和房子的主人见上一面。 【详解】续写分为两部分。第一部分的开头是：我们去了房东家里，却发现另一个买家也在。所以可以接 着写：他说自己的出价更高，并要求房东把房子卖给他。然后房东问他买房的原因，他说是因为想把房子 当作投资。房东思考了一下说，不能把房子卖给他，因为他们要找的是爱房子的人，而不是把它当作投资， 用来挣钱的人。 第二部分的开头是：然后房东看着我们说：“我决定把房子卖给你。”所以可以接着写，房东说：他看见 我们最近常常坐在湖边，知道我们非常爱这套房子，也相信我们会欣赏他们在这套房子中投入的精力。所 以他决定低价把房子卖给我们。至于那些不够的钱就当作是提前给我们的结婚礼物。我们就这样找到了喜 爱的房子，也明白了一些道理。 写作时应注意续写内容要符合逻辑，人称的转换和时态。 【点睛】范文内容完整，要点全面，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。 作者在范文中使用了一些主从复合句，例如：I can't sell my house to you, because I am looking for someone who truly loves my house, not just for money.中 who 引导定语从句；That's how we found our home and how I learned that when people are kind, they are not strangers, only friends we haven't yet met.中 how 引导表语从句，that 引导 宾语从句。
