The four dolphins were seen in the water near the Fossil Park neighborhood in St Petersburg, Florida, US, on Sunday. Experts from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) had monitored the dolphins' activities in the past few days and hoped that they would swim out with the tide. ‎ ‎ But when the dolphins struggled to leave the canal, the brave volunteers joined members of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium to form a rescue team to free them. Dozens of people gathered to take videos and pictures of the kind act. A team of 14 volunteers held hands to act as a block to guide the dolphins out of the narrow channel. They shouted and patted the water with their hands to direct the dolphins to vast expanses of Riviera Bay. Dolphins find their way in the water through echolocation(回声定位). That means that, by making high-frequency sounds, they ‎ can recognize the echoes of sound waves that bounce off objects to find their way around.‎ Andy Garrett, a biologist of the FWC said, "We were able to keep that chain together. The dolphins were interested. They actually came over right away." He added that when the team reached a bridge, the dolphins appeared a bit nervous and started doing some spins. "They made one real hard pass at our team and then went under the bridge and took off," Garrett said. The operation lasted about 45 minutes and the rescue team did not use nets or any items that could stress the dolphins.‎ ‎24. What can we know about the dolphins from paragraph l?‎ ‎ A. They formed a chain to protect themselves.‎ ‎ B. They lived in the water near the Fossil Park.‎ ‎ C. They were observed in secret by volunteers.‎ ‎ D. They were forced to stay in a canal for four days.‎ ‎25. Why did volunteers shout and pat the water?‎ ‎ A. To make sounds to attract some people.‎ ‎ B. To guide the dolphins out to Riviera Bay.‎ ‎ C. To celebrate the success of saving dolphins.‎ ‎ D. To test the different reactions of the dolphins.‎ ‎26. What words could best describe the rescuers?‎ ‎ A. Brave and caring.‎ ‎ B. Cautious and humorous.‎ ‎ C. Smart and ambitious. ‎ ‎ D. Optimistic and energetic.‎ ‎27. What's the main idea of the text?‎ ‎ A. Dolphins swam to the canal to hunt for food.‎ ‎ B. Rescuers formed a human chain to save dolphins.‎ ‎ C. Volunteers helped four dolphins find their way home.‎ ‎ D. Experts studied the ways of dolphins' finding directions.‎ C The Guardian(卫报) has updated its style guide to introduce terms that more accurately describe the environmental crises facing the world.‎ Instead of “climate change” the preferred terms are “climate emergency, crisis or breakdown” and “global heating” is favoured over “global warming”, although the original terms are not banned.‎ ‎“We want to ensure that we are being scientifically precise, while also communicating clearly with readers on this very important issue,” said the editor-in-chief, Katharine Viner. “The phrase ‘climate change’, for example, sounds rather passive and gentle when what scientists are talking about is a catastrophe for humanity.”‎ ‎“Increasingly, climate scientists and organisations from the UN to the Met Office are changing their terms, and using stronger language to describe the situation we’re in,” she said. Other terms that have been updated, including the use of “wildlife” rather than “biodiversity”, “fish populations” instead of “fish stocks” and “climate science denier” rather than “climate sceptic”.‎ Earlier in May, Greta Thunberg, the Swedish teenager who has inspired school strikes for climate around the globe, said: “Can we all now call it what it is: climate breakdown ‎, climate crisis, climate emergency, ecological breakdown, ecological crisis and ecological emergency?”‎ The update to the Guardian’s style guide follows the addition of the global carbon dioxide level to the Guardian’s daily weather pages. “Levels of CO2 in the atmosphere have risen so dramatically – including a measure of that in our daily weather report is symbolic of what human activity is doing to our climate,” said Viner in April. “People need reminding that the climate crisis is no longer a future problem – we need to tackle it now, and every day matters.”‎ ‎28. Why is the Guardian changing the language it uses about the environment?‎ A. To achieve more accurate description of the diverse world we live in.‎ B. To remove all the negative expressions concerning environment problems.‎ C. To illustrate the world’s environment crises in a more precise way.‎ D. To make the terms about environment sound more academic.‎ ‎29. In terms of the Guardian’s language changing in the field of environment, which of the following statement is true?‎ A. Since the new terms about environment crises have been adopted, the original ones are all banned.‎ B. Compared with “climate crisis”, “climate change” sounds more pessimistic and depressing.‎ C. “Climate crisis” as a stronger term helps to describe the real threat facing the world.‎ D. Global carbon dioxide level is added to the Guardian’s daily weather pages long before the update of the style guide. ‎ ‎30. All the following are newly updated terms except __________.‎ A. wildlife B. fish population C. climate science denier D. biodiversity ‎31. Why did Greta Thunberg inspire school strikes for climate?‎ A. To set a good example for teenagers as a well-behavior student.‎ B. To show it is urgent to update environment terms.‎ C. To convey Swedish schools’ willing to listen to different voices from teenagers.‎ D. To show how popular environment campaigns are among Sweden. ‎ D Everyone needs to be safe, loved and to have a sense of belonging. These are inborn and natural basic needs. In an effort to have these needs satisfied, many of us tend to please others. And it works for a while. We find that we experience less conflict with others, but the conflict within ourselves grows. Saying "no" produces feeling of guilt and saying "yes" brings anger.‎ My father was in the military, so we moved frequently. Being shy, I didn't make friends. What's more, I grew up in a household where grades, image and how others saw our family were very important. In our household a "C" was unacceptable, a "B" should have been an "A" and an "A" meant the lesson was too easy. I was too skinny, my sister was too fat and my brother's lips and ears were too big for his tiny head.‎ To stop pleasing others is easier said than done. It's a long process, one in which I am consistently working to be perfect. The turning point for me came shortly after I got married. The very first thing we did to end the cycle of catering to others was develop our own identity as individuals and then as a couple. And then we developed a strong set of core values and a ‎ vision for our future. The third and one of the most valuable things we did during this process was develop our own personal influence on others and we valued deeply the opinions of the wiser and more successful people around us.‎ Besides, we should understand that sometimes helping people actually hurts them. Struggle is necessary to success. Struggle strengthens character, making people determined. So sometimes allowing people to struggle is the best thing you can do for them.‎ ‎32. How are we likely to feel when pleasing others?‎ A. Satisfied B. Guilty. C. Happy D. Angry. ‎ ‎33. What can we infer from the author's experience as a child?‎ A. He grew up doing a lot of housework.‎ B. His parents had great expectations of the children.‎ C. He realized the value of opinions from others.‎ D. It was hard for him to adjust to the moving life.‎ ‎34. What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A. What steps the author took to go on pleasing others.‎ B. Why the author further developed his values and character.‎ C. How the author stepped out of the cycle of pleasing others.‎ D. When the author turned to others for their valuable opinions.‎ ‎35. What does the author suggest doing?‎ A. Helping others without delay.‎ B. Thinking twice before offering help.‎ C. Refusing to help others.‎ D. Leaving someone alone in trouble.‎ 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。‎ With Moon as His Muse, Japanese Billionaire Signs Up for SpaceX Voyage When Yusaku Maezawa took the stage here at one corner of the SpaceX factory floor, he explained that he did not just want to be the first private citizen to circle the moon. “I choose to go to the moon, with artists,” Mr. Maezawa said, echoing President John F. Kennedy’s speech in 1962. 36 ‎ While SpaceX’s Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets have been significant technological achievements, SpaceX’s engineers have started to turn their attention toward the B.F.R., a much more ambitious vehicle that SpaceX hopes will take Mr. Maezawa to circle the moon. It is a promising project at SpaceX, and is one that would grow rapidly in the coming several years. 37 ‎ Although he would not discuss how much Mr. Maezawa is to pay for his trip, SpaceX’s CEO Mr. Musk made clear it would make a significant contribution to the development costs. 38 “I don’t think it’s more than 10, and I don’t think it’s less than two,” he said.‎ Mr. Maezawa said he did not like to be alone and so he would invite five to eight artists and performers to accompany him, part of a project he called Dear Moon. 39 “Art makes people smile, brings people together.” He said.‎ When asked whether a trip around the moon was the most beneficial way to spend his fortune, Mr. Maezawa said, “I want to contribute to society in a different way. Maybe 10 years from now, people will be laughing I paid so much, but somebody needs to make the first payment,” he added. “Otherwise, space development is not going to evolve. 40 ”‎ A. Mr. Maezawa also said that art contributed to his hope of world peace.‎ B. That’s why I think I should be the one to do this.‎ C. Mr. Maezawa’s trip to the moon was expected to last 5 days or so.‎ D. Mr. Maezawa’s four- to five-day moon trip would probably occur in 2023.‎ E. Mr. Musk estimated development costs at roughly $5 billion.‎ F. Only together with the financial help from all the artists, can humans realize the dream of flying to the moon.‎ G. He announced his intentions to travel to space with an unconventional crew during a news conference Monday evening. ‎ 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。‎ Hello, Mr. Wi-Fi.

His painting Sunflowers, for example, 56 (fill) with vivid yellows and browns. These colors give 57 painting a feeling of warmth and well-being. However, the sunflowers are actually dead and dying.‎ The result is a painting that combines the warmth of life that Van Gogh loved 58 the feelings of sadness that were all around him. It is a painting that is warm, beautiful and sad, all at the same time.‎ Van Gogh’s most famous painting, The Starry Night, takes this 59 (mix) of joy and sadness one step further. It is a landscape full of deep blues and shadows 60 represent the sadness Van Gogh was feeling as he 61 (paint), rather than what he was actually seeing.‎ This is why Van Gogh’s 62 (image) in his painting look more imagined than real. The stars and moon in The Starry Night are 63 (unusual) bright, 64 (they) light swirling(旋动) above the darkening hills. A tree that looks like black fire cuts through the view of the night, 65 (interrupt) its beauty.‎ 第四部分 写作(共两节, 满分40分)‎ 第一节(满分15分)‎ ‎66. 假设你叫王平，李华是你的同窗好友，请根据下列要点，用英文给李华写一篇毕业留言。请包含以下要点：‎ ‎1.心中的李华；2.简要的事例；3.美好祝福。‎ 注意：‎ ‎1.内容积极向上，语意连贯，结构完整。词数80左右。‎ ‎2.不能写成诗歌形式：不能使用真实姓名和学校名称。‎ Dear Li Hua,‎ It's time to say goodbye. _______________________________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎ Wang Ping 第二节(满分25分)‎ ‎67.阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。‎ The cost of a smile Kathy was a young woman in her 20’s who worked in a small restaurant as a waitress. One day, as she went about her shift with her usual angry look, a kind old man walked in and sat down at the counter. He read the menu and politely told her what he wanted.‎ Kathy took his order and yelled, “Your food will be ready soon.” As she turned to leave, the man said, “A smile costs nothing”. Kathy rolled her eyes at him and walked away.‎ She brought his order, cleared his plates, and gave him the bill, for which he left a nice tip.‎ Each time the old man saw her, he smiled and thanked her. This only made her angrier.‎ A week went by, and every day the man came for lunch and the same thing happened. And each time Kathy took his order he would say, “A smile costs nothing.”‎ But a week later, Kathy picked up a menu, wrote the words “1 SMILE … $20" at the bottom, and placed it on the counter for the kind old man to see.‎ He came, and Kathy waited for his reaction as he read the menu. The old man ordered his usual and added, “… and a smile, if you don’t mind”. Kathy was so surprised. She laughed out loud, “Now, now …” The man jokingly scolded. “I ordered a smile, not a laugh”. So Kathy put on a bright smile and said, “Coming right up, sir.” And to her surprise, he left $20 tip!‎ A few years went by, and the two bonded like family. Charlie, the kind old man, was a retired manager whose wife passed away long ago. He spent most of his time at home, with the exception of his frequent restaurant visits.

Kathy couldn't concentrate on her work the whole day. Even when the restaurant was going to close, Charlie didn't show up, and she was trapped in anxiety. After work, Kathy hurried to Charlie's home, only to be told by his neighbors that he had passed away last night. Not until then did she know that he had fought against cancer alone during the past years. Kathy couldn't trust her ears when she heard this. She was totally overwhelmed by grief. At Charlie's funeral, the happy memories with Charlie kept flashing in her mind.‎ ‎ Several days after the funeral, Kathy received a very important-looking letter in the mail. She opened the letter with her hands shaking slightly. At the sight of the familiar handwriting, tears welled up in Kathy's eyes. Charlie expressed his gratitude for her company these years. Looking at the words "...and you must continue to smile at life", she couldn't contain her sorrow and tears poured down her cheeks. It suddenly dawned on Kathy that with the help of ‎ Charlie, she transformed from the previous angry-looking waitress to a smiling girl. Only then did she realize the true meaning of smile: bring others warmth and company. At the thought of this, a faint and long-expected smile flickered across her lips.‎ Possible version 2: ‎ One day he didn’t come to the restaurant. She called his home, only to hear an answering machine. With nervousness wrapped into anxiety, Kathy went to his house and found out from his neighbor that he had died the previous night. On hearing the bad news, she felt seized by a burst of sadness and couldn’t help crying bitterly. Because Charlie had no family or close friends, Kathy put herself in charge of his funeral arrangements. She and the neighbor were the only people to attend.‎ Several days after the funeral, Kathy received a very important-looking letter in the mail. It was sent to her from Charlie’s lawyer. Enclosed was a check for almost $600,000! Kathy nearly fainted, but then she noticed a handwritten note which read: “Dear Kathy, by the time you read this, I will be gone. Here I have left for my best friend a small token of my gratitude I can never repay you for what you’ve given me, for you see, Kathy, a smile is worth much more than $20”. Indeed, a smile is priceless.‎
