excited to see tiny stuffed cats and cartoon characters． Gee stood beside them， quietly explaining each treasure． She told me that she and Tom built their Christmas ornament collection piece by piece each year． She smiled as we left with the box， because her precious heirlooms， gathered over a life time， had found a new home．‎ ‎ We first met Tom and Gee in the early days of our marriage． Someone had been returning our garbage cans to the garage each garbage day， and Jim and I had wondered who． Then one day we spotted him： a man who lived across the street． I baked cookies and left them on a bench outside the garage with a thank﹣you note． We then found a typed letter from Tom， explaining that he had begun returning cans for people he hardly knew， because neighbors had done this ‎ for Gee when he was in hospital． Now he paid it forward by doing the same for all of us．‎ ‎ A few years after we'd moved in， Tom died， much to our sorrow． Gee told us she still talked to Tom every day． When we left her house with the precious box， I realized how hard it must be for Gee to part with that box， a piece of Tom．‎ ‎ These days， we're planning a move． The house that seemed so huge six years ago is filled with furniture， books， toys and， of course， people． We know it's time to go， but soon realize gaining a third bedroom seems like a bad trade for all we stand to lose．‎ ‎ This Christmas， we'll decorate our tree with Gee and Tom's ornaments． Maybe I'll talk to Tom just as Gee still does． Thank you， I'll say for teaching us what it means to be a neighbor．‎ ‎（1）What does the underlined word "heirlooms" in the first paragraph refer to？　 　‎ A． Wooden box．‎ B． Stuffed cats．‎ C． Christmas ornament collection．‎ D． Cartoon characters．‎ ‎（2）What did the author do to express her thanks to Tom？　 　‎ A． She typed a thank﹣you letter．‎ B． She baked some cookies for him．‎ C． She cared for Gee when Tom was ill．‎ D． She started to do the same voluntary work．‎ ‎（3）Why are the author's family planning to leave？　 　‎ A． Their caring neighbor has died．‎ B． Nobody will help them as Tom did．‎ C． Gee wants to move to another place．‎ D． Their house has become too crowded．‎ ‎（4）What would be the best title for this passage？　 　‎ A． The Gift of a Great Neighbor．‎ B． Returning Garbage Cans．‎ C． An Unforgettable Experience．‎ D． Wonderful Christmas Ornaments．‎ ‎3．（8分） There are lots of ways to educate yourself on the Internet． You can find photos， documents， and films on almost any topic you can imagine． And at www．ted．com， you can access lectures by artists， scholars， designers， technicians and others．‎ ‎ TED began in 1984 as a conference that brought together individuals from the fields of technology， entertainment and design． It was intended to be a one﹣time event focusing on technology and design． The event ended up losing money， and it was six years before the founders tried it again． This time it worked， and since 1990， the TED conference has been an annual event． There are now two held every year， with topics as diverse as music， medicine， and money． Other specialized spin﹣off conferences address narrower issues．‎ ‎ The TED website came from a desire to share the conferences with the world， to "offer free knowledge from the world's most inspired thinkers，" as the website puts it． The current version of the site was launched in April 2007， and contains videos of talks given at the TED conferences around the world． The talks are transcribed into hundreds of languages．‎ ‎ The TED website is owned by the Sapling Foundation， a non﹣profit devoted to fostering the spread of great ideas． The Sapling foundation acquired TED in 2001． Since then， it has been focusing on using TED to broadcast ideas that might change the world．‎ ‎ TED， of course， isn't immune to criticism． It's been called elitist（精英） for its high ticket prices （more than 6，000 dollars total）． It's been accused by a few people of censorship for not publishing their talks． One controversial speaker was upset about being criticized by the conference's host afterward．‎ ‎ The complaints， however， seem to be relatively few for such a large， long﹣running organization． And accusations of elitism ring hollow when so much is given away for free on TED's website． Whatever its failings， TED is a source of inspirational information for those who seek it out．‎ ‎（1）What is the main topic of the article？　 　‎ A． The case against TED．‎ B． What's on TED today．‎ C． Pros and cons of www．ted．com．‎ D． What is TED．‎ ‎（2）Which of the following statements is NOT true？　 　‎ A． The TED conference came after the success of www．ted．com．‎ B． Two TED conferences are now held every year．‎ C． TED talks are available in many languages．‎ D． The Sapling Foundation owns www．ted．com．‎ ‎（3）From the last two paragraphs， we can infer that　 　．‎ A． it is accepted to all involved that some TED talks might not be published B． the host of the conference is one who plays a supportive role to the speakers C． TED is criticized for giving special treatment to the wealthy or powerful D． the negative comments on TED greatly affects its reputation ‎（4）This author probably believes that　 　．‎ A． TED is elitist B． TED is beneficial C． TED isn't important D． TED is the best website ‎4．（8分）Last year in Arizona， 19 firefighters died in an unpredictably fast wildfire． It was the highest firefighter deaths for a single fire since 1933．The same year， Sierra Nevada saw its largest fire ever， which destroyed 402 square miles， and Colorado suffered its most destructive wildfire in state history﹣nearly 500 homes were destroyed．‎ ‎ Why do there seem to be more fires in more places in recent years？The simple answer is us． First， until the 1980s， we didn't know that fire can be good for ecosystems， so firefighters operated under a policy of fire suppression（抑制）． By preventing fires， though， they let underbrush build up in forests， fueling bigger fires later on． Then，the increasing average temperatures are responsible for drier，longer，and more extreme fire ‎ seasons． Finally，our cities are spreading into fire﹣prone（易于着火的） areas．‎ ‎ To avoid greater losses，experts first need to fully understand wildfires． Starting this year，a team of engineers，including the National Institute of Standards and Technology（NIST）and the U．S． Forest Service，has been carrying out controlled burns and using the data to build computer models to improve fire predictions． They are also testing new building materials that can withstand wildfire conditions and make for safer homes．‎ ‎ We need a system that warns people against danger even before a fire starts． Scientists at NIST recently developed a hazard scale（危险等级） for marking areas most at risk of wildfires． It would predict the severity and destructiveness of a fire in a particular area． It could also inform building criteria for new construction in fire zones and insurance costs． You pay insurance for deciding to live in the path of quakes and hurricanes，after all，so why not fires？‎ ‎ The method is tried and true． When general warnings won't do the job，why not use the market to discourage people from doing stupid things like building in fire zones？ Without a hazard scale in place， we're just moving into areas that are more and more likely to burn．‎ ‎（1）Why does the author mention the data in paragraph 1？　 　‎ A． To describe a disastrous scene．‎ B． To stress the serious situation．‎ C． To prove the scientificity of the method．‎ D． To show the complexity of ecosystems．‎ ‎（2）What can we infer from paragraph 2？　 　‎ A． The spreading of cities reduces chances of fires．‎ B． The policy of fire suppression proves to be effective．‎ C． Extreme fires are the main result of global warming．‎ D． Wildfires can be necessary part of ecosystems．‎ ‎（3）Why do the engineers carry out controlled burns？　 　‎ A． To monitor the forest fires．‎ B． To predict wildfires more accurately．‎ C． To develop new building materials．‎ D． To assess insurance costs．‎ ‎（4）What is "a hazard scale" in the text？　 　‎ A． A computer testing model．‎ B． A set of building criteria．‎ C． A fire warning system．‎ D． A fire loss assessment．‎ 第二节（共5 小题；每小题10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．‎ ‎5．（10分）Continuous learning benefits us in many ways． First of all， it allows the increase in knowledge and ability in our career． For example， watching someone work can make us a better worker． （1）　 　 For example， we can learn about the general workforce and how the application process works to better prepare us for job searching． This can help if for some reason you lose your job and need to find other work．‎ ‎ What's more， continuous learning can open our mind． Having an open mind and willingness to take on new ideas can do wonders． First of all， it builds your attitude towards change． （2）　 　 Second， when you take continuous learning into account， you can begin to understand how others feel about a particular issue．‎ ‎ （3）　 　 They are always looking for new experiences and do different things． Moreover， they not only have knowledge on various topics that aren't always related to present roles but also know about the latest trends and technologies in the industry．‎ ‎ To develop continuous learning， you have to begin with setting a clear and specific goal． （4）　 　 Once your goal is set， build a system to help support your strategy． You want to be looking for different sources of information， but also to be picky about it． In other words， try to learn within your specific field but ensure the information is coming from a trustworthy source． At the same time， do use tools to help improve your learning system． （5）　 　 Seminars（研讨会） workshops， and live classes are the tools that modern learners need as they make learning effective．‎ A． Learning can improve other areas in our lives．‎ B． Besides， learning can prepare us for the unexpected．‎ C． If always learning， you are always improving．‎ D． Excellent continuous learners behave in a specific manner．‎ E． Being excited about change can affect others around you positively．‎ F． There're various tools to help you present information and learning．‎ G． Knowing what you want to achieve can encourage you to keep learnings．‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．‎ ‎6．（30分）Thanks to the power of

‎5．【点评】七选五题型考察学生把握整篇文章的布局和逻辑层次关系和把握微观信息间关联性这种题一般可从以下方面来做：‎ ‎（1）看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，确定文章体裁，抓住文章结构，分析篇章结构，了解文章大意．首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义．‎ ‎（2）精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格．七选五空出的是整个句子，可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案．‎ ‎（3）看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语．实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破．通过阅读选项，有可能根据选项中的关键词找出正确选项．‎ ‎（4）注意各选项中出现的句子衔接手段，寻找句中衔接标志词．查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力．‎ 最后，用代入法，检查答案是否合理，将所有选择答案放回空白处，通读全文，检查文章内容是否语义连贯合理、紧扣主题，语篇结构是否通顺连贯、具有一致性、合乎逻辑，写作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用语是否恰当贴切，从而判断选择的答案是否正确．‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．‎ ‎6．【点评】做完形填空首先要通读全文，了解大意，一篇完形填空的文章会有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一遍，才能大概了解文章内容，千万不要看一句，做一句．其次要逐句分析，前后一致，选择答案时，要考虑整个句子的内容，包括搭配、时态、语法等．这篇完型要多注意：填空时多联系上下文，注意固定搭配，答案全部填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅了，用词得当，意思正确．‎ 第二节 语法填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式．‎ ‎7．【点评】语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力．我们在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意，有把握的空格可以进行填写．在读懂的基础上，再结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析逐题解答．按题型设计分三种情况：‎ ‎1．纯空格试题的解题技巧 首先分析句子结构，根据所缺成分确定哪类词．然后，根据句子意思，确定具体填什么词，或根据两句间的逻辑关系确定具体用哪个连词．比如第65小题，考查连词．根据前后文的关系可得出，此处为转折关系，故填however．‎ ‎2．给出了动词的试题解题技巧 首先，判断要填的动词是谓语动词还是非谓语动词．若句子没有别的谓语动词或者虽然已有谓语动词，‎ 第四部分 写作（共两节；满分10分）第一节 短文改错（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）‎ ‎8．【点评】1． 先通读全文．认真阅读短文，在做题之前确保已经弄清原文大意．注意文章中上下文的逻辑关系是否正确，时态、人称、主谓、指代等是否一致．‎ ‎2．聚焦出题热点、综合运用所学语言知识，分句（注意以句子为单位而不是以行为单位）对不同的错误情况进行分析和回答（即改词、加词或减词）．‎ ‎3．再次通读全文，校对自己的改正是否正确．一般各种改错的方式都应该用到，如果出现了某一种改法（如加词、减词等）没有用到，要考虑自己的改错应该有问题，要对刚才不是很有把握的行进行推敲．在自己认为正确的行后划勾，并且校对其他行改正的符号是否准确，大小写是否拼写正确（这点同学们很容易忽视）．如果某一行有两种改错方式要推敲哪一种是最佳改法．‎ 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）‎ ‎9．【点评】写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的词汇和句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和句型使文章显得更有档次．特别注意在选择句式时要赋予变化．平时除了加强词汇积累，写作联系以外，还可以适当记忆一些类似的范文，这样在考试中可以起到事半功倍的效果．‎ 日期：2020/6/9
