On Wednesday, Disney CEO Bob Chapek announced that Shanghai Disneyland will reopen on May 11. But one of the new safety measures is phased (分阶段的) reopening. This means Disney will begin by gradually and partially reopening certain locations.‎ If you've ever been to a Disney theme park, especially during peak days, you know how crowded it can get and how necessary FastPasses are. On a "normal day" at Disneyland, park attendance is 65,000 people, according to Walt Disney Imagineering director Kim Irvine. So physical distancing and capacity measures are major focuses as Disney prepares to reopen. Dr. Hymel says that Disney will "conduct physical distancing guidelines based on guidance from health authorities."‎ The new measures will likely include a guest capacity (容量) based on state and federal guidelines. Disney is also exploring ways technology can help with social distancing- experiments in this aspect include using virtual queues at Disneyland and Walt Disney World in advance.‎ Other new measures include increased cleaning of high traffic areas. Disney will follow guidelines from the medical community and the government for improved screening procedures and prevention measures; this means guests will likely need facial masks. Disney Parks have ‎ already adopted new measures such as providing hand soaps and setting up hand washing stations.‎ Shanghai Disneyland has sold out all tickets for May 11. The theme park said that all tickets were gone in a matter of minutes after sales started at 8 am on Friday.‎ ‎21. In order to reopen, Disney has decided to take some measures EXCEPT_________‎ A. following guidance from authorities B. advocating waiting in line for tickets C. cleaning high traffic areas more often D. providing convenience for hand- wash ‎22. This passage is mainly about _________‎ A. the great popularity of Disney parks B. the phased opening of Disney parks C. the new measures of Disney parks D. the great changes of Disney parks B Children with long-term health conditions, such as asthma (哮喘), may be at greater risk of developing a mental health disorder in early adolescence compared to healthy children, according to a new study.‎ The findings, published in the journal Development and Psychopathology, show that kids with chronic illness exhibit higher rates of mental problems at age 10, and these health issues continue to be associated with poor mental health at ages 13 and 15.‎ In the study, the research team reviewed a sample of approximately 7,000 children to investigate the occurrence of mental health disorders, including anxiety or depression, and chronic illness. They found that children with chronic health conditions were approximately twice as likely at 10 and at 13 to present with a mental health disorder than healthy children. At age 15, children with chronic health problems were 60% more likely to present with such disorders.‎ ‎“Although the link between chronic health conditions and mental health problems in childhood has been made before, this study provides the strongest evidence of it to data in the years of late childhood and early adolescence," said study author Dr. Ann Marie Brady. “The difference chronic illness makes to mental health is concerning, and the first impact can be seen even before adolescence, in late childhood."‎ The researchers also found that bullying and health-related absence from school were two most significant additional factors for children with mental health issues. The second one was identified as the most consistent factor predicting mental health problems over time.‎ ‎“If children with chronic illness are more likely to miss school, or experience bullying, that can make the situation worse. Keeping an eye on school attendance and looking out for evidence of bullying amongst those children may help to find out who are most at risk." said Dr. Brady.‎ ‎23. The underlined term “chronic illness" in Paragraph 2 refers to a kind of disease_________‎ A. causing a lot of deaths B. causing absent-mindedness C. lasting for a long time D. leading to mental disorders ‎24. By the findings of this study, we know that_________‎ A. chronic illness leads to the mental health disorder in early adolescence B. healthy young adolescents have no chance of having mental problems C. adolescents with illness are more likely to develop mental health disorders D. chronic illness has some relation to mental problems in early adolescence ‎25. What is special about this study?‎ A. It makes a new discovery based on the findings of previous studies B. It draws a more accurate conclusion based on the previous studies C. It questions the accuracy of the findings by the previous studies D. It draws more attention to adolescents' health than previous studies ‎26. Which of the following can best help to decide if children with chronic illness tend to have mental problems?‎ A. Their school attendance. B. Their physical conditions.‎ C. Their tolerance of bullying. D. Their tendency for bullying.‎ C It was early in 1981 when I first met George. I was in my early 30s, seeking a creative outlet unrelated to the boredom of housework and raising little kids. At 65, George had recently retired and was seeking a rewarding hobby for his golden years. For both of us, painting was “it” and we met at a local TAFE painting class. Thus began a friendship that was to last for 25 years- -until the day he died.‎ George was a man who lived life to the full. He worked hard, played hard and had an opinion about everything. As a slim and energetic man, he took pride in his fitness and walked more than three kilometers every day. “I'd no more go without my walk than without changing my underwear. “He’d say. .‎ As the only male in a painting class full of women, George ruled the roost and we were his hens. He adored his singular role and looked after his brood with the same attention he gave to everything.‎ He took to painting with passion and commitment, even changing the spare bedroom of his home into a studio. His painting equipment was comprehensive- an easel, quality paints, linseed oil, turpentine, brushes, palette, canvases, charcoal pencils, fixative, palette knives- even a rolling pin for removing air bubbles when gluing.‎ For about six years George and I studied together through various units until the completion of the course and other commitments drew us apart, though we always maintained personal contact as we lived within a couple of kilometers of each other. I'd sometimes see him on his daily walk or at the local shops and occasionally we' d touch base with a“proper”afternoon tea.‎ Fast-forward some years and George was now about 80 years old. He rang one day and asked me to come to his house, saying he needed to ask me something. George explained that he was giving up painting and giving away all his “stuff". Everything- -paints, boards, canvases, completed works and rolling pin! “I can't paint, Bev.” He declared in the manner of a child who had to say farewell to his favorite toy.“ You have the best talent and are most likely to use it," he said.‎ After considerable persuasion, I accepted this precious gift on condition that he could reclaim it at any time. He never did, of course, and I still use much of his equipment today, more than 20 years later. As I paint, I often remember George and his big personality.‎ ‎27. The friendship between George and the writer started because_________‎ A. they thought painting was characterized by creativity B. they appreciated each other for their painting ability C. they thought painting was a great way of killing time D. they shared happiness in their local painting class ‎28. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 indicates that_________‎ A. George walked too hard to change his underwear B. George viewed his walk as a great way to keep fit C. George had his opinion of changing his underwear D. George had to walk hard daily to live life to the full ‎29. The rolling pin is mentioned in Paragraph 4 to show that_________‎ A. George was passionate about painting B. George was cautious about his painting C. George was skilled with his painting D. George was fond of its use in painting ‎30. Which of the following can NOT reflect George’s “big personality “in the last paragraph?‎ A. “He worked hard, played hard and had an opinion about everything" (Paragraph 2)‎ B.“As the only male ... George ruled the roost and we were his hens." (Paragraph 3)‎ C. “I’d sometimes see him on his daily walk .... afternoon tea." (Paragraph 5)‎ D. “He declared in the manner of a child who ... his favorite toy." (Paragraph 6)‎ 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10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。‎ College helps students dream of more than a salary From the earliest days of our country, education has been seen as the foundation for our future._31 . Is investing in a college or university education still worth it?‎ ‎32. Students who graduate from college can expect 1o make about 60% more than those who do not, well over a million dollars over a lifetime. But what about the benefits of college that are more difficult to measure?‎ College is a passport to different places, different times, and different ways of thinking - - from learning new languages to considering the arc of human history to diving deep into the building blocks of matter. It gives students a chance to understand themselves differently.‎ ‎33 , One of the most important ways students learn at college is by interacting with people who are different from themselves. I recall a freshman who wasn't sure if he would ft in at a new college far away from his hometown. However, one night he found himself debating about the ‎ characteristics that define a real hero with other admitted students from around the world._ 34__, but the differences were what made the conversation exciting, and he realized how much he could learn at a place full of engaging people with a wide range of viewpoints.‎ College teaches students the virtue of slowing down. No one denies the value of speed, connectivity and the virtual world in an economy that thrives (繁荣) on all three. But “thinking" is a word that is too often forgotten. College teaches students to slow down, to change information into insight and knowing into understanding._ 35_. The result is that students grow in knowledge and in wisdom for a lifetime.‎ To conclude, investing in a college or university education is well worth it.‎ A. College introduces students to a new world B. Yet its value is being increasingly questioned C. It remains the same nowadays D. It develops critical thinking E. They had a heated discussion F. Not everyone agreed G. College education financially pays off 第三节《黑布林》 阅读(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)‎ 根据《黑布林》小说《化身博士》内容，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。‎ ‎36. Which of the following happens first?‎ A. Enfield tells Utterson the story of the door.‎ B. Sir Danvers Carew is murdered.‎ C. Utterson and Enfield see Jekyll at his window.‎ D. Utterson finds Hyde dead in Jekyll's lab.‎ ‎37. In the story, Mr. Utterson is_________.‎ A. a servant B. a lawyer C. a Member of Parliament D. a doctor ‎38. At first, what does Dr. Jekyll think of Hyde's action?‎ A. He is responsible for it. B. He is regretful about it.‎ C. He is happy about it. D. He is strongly against it. ‎ ‎39. Mr. Hyde is considered all of the following EXCEPT______‎ A. evil B. violent C. mysterious D. respectable ‎40.

She was working with another student, and I was not supposed to bother them by ringing the bell. 1 stood against the wall and daydreamed what I'd rather be doing. I had been tutored enough to read, understand, and even write some musical compositions, but I just didn't have a gift for it. Mrs. Windsor had offered to give me the lessons for free, so I felt my duty to try.‎ The door opened and Wendy Barton came out. 1 walked in, sat down on the piano bench and began to sort through my sheet music. Today Mrs. Windsor introduced her niece Pasha to teach me.‎ With a smile, Pasha sat beside me on the piano bench, opened my sheet music to the beginning page and asked me to play. I arranged my fingers on the keys. Then I frowned(皱眉) and concentrated to make the notes on the page match the finger movements. I had to admit I was a rather mechanical (呆板的) pianist.‎ After about a page or two, Pasha gently put her hand on top of mine as if to calm my fingers. There was a long pause. “What are you hearing in the music?" 1 looked at her rather strangely and admitted I didn't know what she meant. “Like a story. Here, let me try and you listen," Pasha advised.‎ She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, letting her fingers dance lightly over the keys. Then, she began to play. “See, it begins here beside some kind of river. Hear the water flowing beside you?" Her fingers rose and fell gently on the keys. “Now a princess appears and she's picking flowers from the water's edge." A happy piece of music filled the air in time to Pasha's dancing fingers.‎ 注意:‎ ‎1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;‎ ‎2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语:‎ ‎3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好: .‎ ‎4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ ‎5.评分依据:主题理解的准确性;情节设计的协同性和合理性;语言使用的准确性和丰 富性。‎ Paragraph 1:‎ Suddenly the music changed.‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ That day means a lot in my musical life.‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ 一、听力题（共20小题，每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎1-5 ACBAB 6-10 BAACB 11-15 CABCC 16-20 BCBCA 二、阅读理解（共三节，满分40分）‎ 第一节 阅读理解 (共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)‎ ‎21-22 BC 23-26 CDBA 27-30 DBAC 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ ‎31-35 BGAFD 第三节 黑布林(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分)‎ ‎36-40 ABCDC 三、语言运用（共三节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)‎ ‎41-45 BDABB 46-50 CDABC 51-55 DACCB 56-60 AADDC 第二节 完成句子(共5小题，每题1分，满分5分)‎ ‎61. try out 62. broken/split up 63. expose to 64. was he 65. it that 第三节 语法填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ ‎66. comes 67. is linked 68. difficulties 69. designed 70.

With her fingers hitting the keys harder, I sensed something dangerous getting closer to the princess. “Now the princess has slipped into the river and is being carried away by the rough water.” Pasha explained. At this moment, I felt myself sweating all over and my heart was beating faster. After a while, the pace of the music became slower and slower. “What is happening?” I asked. “The princess is saved by a fisherman.” She smiled. Hearing these words, I let out a sigh of relief. ‎ That day means a lot in my musical life. Pasha’s way of teaching made a great difference to my understanding of music. Actually, it was her story that made me fall in love with music. Nowadays, whenever I play a piece of music on the piano, I become completely lost in my music.‎ ‎ I know that I’m not only playing the music to the audience, but also having the world listen to my stories.‎
