My job was to follow behind the runners in an ambulance in case any of them needed medical attention. As the athletes began to pace themselves, the front runners started to disappear. It was then that my eyes were drawn to the woman in blue running shorts and a baggy white T-shirt.‎ I knew we were already watching our “last runner”. Her feet were turned in, yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled ( 跛足的 ) and bent that it seemed impossible for her to walk, let alone run a marathon.‎ The driver and I watched in silence as she slowly moved forward. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to gain some distance. Then we’d slowly move forward a little bit more. As I watched her struggle to put one foot in front of the other, I found myself breathing for her and urging her forward. I wanted her to stop, and at the same time, I prayed that she wouldn’t.‎ Finally, she was the only runner left in sight. I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with respect and amazement as she pushed forward with sheer determination through the last miles. When the finish line came into sight, the cheering crowds - 28 -‎ ‎ had long gone home. Yet, standing straight and proud waited a man. He was holding one end of a ribbon tied to a post. She slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the ribbon fluttering (飘动) behind her.‎ I don’t know this woman’s name, but that day she became a part of my life — a part I often depend on.‎ For her, it wasn’t about beating the other runners or winning a prize. It was about finishing what she had set out to do. When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-can’t-do-it,” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.‎ ‎21. What words can best describe the woman?‎ A. Proud and determined. B. Strong-willed and honorable.‎ C. Modest and courageous. D. Diligent and considerate.‎ ‎22. What has the author learnt from the woman?‎ A. Don’t depend on others when facing hardships.‎ B. Nothing is too tough to accomplish if one is brave enough.‎ C. The disabled can also run a marathon despite their walking difficulty.‎ D. It’s not winning but holding on straight to the end that really matters.‎ ‎23. What could be the best title for the text?‎ A. A Crippled Woman. B. An Unforgettable Job.‎ C. The Last Runner. D. The Annual Marathon.‎ ‎【答案】21. B 22. D 23. C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者作为工作人员参加马拉松比赛，目睹一位脚有问题的女人坚持跑完马拉松的过程，并且这个最后一位跑步者一直激励作者以后生活的道路。‎ ‎【21题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“ I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with respect and amazement as she pushed forward with sheer determination through the last miles.”可知，我坐在座位边上，带着敬意和惊讶看着她坚定地向前走了最后几英里。可以推断这个女人意志坚强，值得尊敬。故选B。‎ - 28 -‎ ‎【22题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章I don’t know this woman’s name, but that day she became a part of my life — a part I often depend on. For her, it wasn’t about beating the other runners or winning a prize. It was about finishing what she had set out to do. When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-can’t-do-it,” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is. 我不知道这个女人的名字，但从那天起，她就成了我生活的一部分——我经常依赖的一部分。对她来说，这不是打败其他赛跑者或赢得奖品的问题。这是关于完成她已经开始做的事情。当我认为事情太困难或者我得到那些“我只是不能做”的时候，我就会想到最后一个跑步者。然后我意识到我面前的任务是多么的简单。由此可以推断作者从这个女人身上学到的，不是胜利而是坚持到底才是最重要的，故选D ‎【23题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述作者作为工作人员参加马拉松比赛，目睹一位脚有问题的女人坚持跑完马拉松的过程，并且这个最后一位跑步者一直激励作者以后生活的道路。所以“最后一位跑步者”为短文最佳标题，更吸引读者，故选C。‎ ‎【点睛】标题猜测题。标题应位于文章之首，概括文章内容，点明文章主题。它可以是单词，短语，或句子。确定文章标题，第一，标题要与主题密切相关；其次，看标题是否能概括全文内容，不能只概括短文中的某些事实或细节；第三，标题范围不应太大或太小；最后，标题应新颖，概括性强并且精炼。文主要讲述作者作为工作人员参加马拉松比赛，目睹一位脚有问题的女人坚持跑完马拉松的过程，并且这个最后一位跑步者一直激励作者以后生活的道路。所以“最后一位跑步者”为短文最佳标题，更吸引读者，小题3中C选项“最后一位跑步者”为短文最佳标题，更吸引读者，故选C项。‎ B AIDS may be one of the most undesirable diseases in the world. Luckily, there is now hope for AIDS patients.‎ According to a recent paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Chinese scientists have successfully used CRISPR technology - a method of gene editing - to treat a patient with HIV. While it may not have cured the patient fully, it still represents a huge step forward in fighting the disease.‎ The patient was a 27-year-old Chinese man who was diagnosed with both AIDS and - 28 -‎ ‎ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (急性淋巴细胞白血病), a type of blood cancer. Despite his hopeless situation, doctors offered him a glimmer of hope: a bone marrow (骨髓) transplant to treat his cancer and an experimental treatment for his HIV.‎ They used this opportunity to edit the DNA in bone marrow stem cells from a donor before transplanting the cells into the patient.‎ Specifically, the treatment involved using the gene-editing tool CRISPR-Cas9 to delete a gene known as CCR5, which encodes a protein that HIV uses to get inside human cells. Without the gene, HIV is unable to infiltrate cells.‎ Talking about the gene, lead scientist Deng Hongkui told CNN, “After being edited, the cells - and the blood cells they produce - have the ability to resist HIV infection.”‎ Nineteen months after the treatment, the patient’s leukemia was in complete remission (缓解) and donor cells without CCR5 remained, according to the research paper.‎ Though the transplant did not cure the man’s HIV, it still showed the effectiveness of gene-editing technology, as there was no indication of any unintended genetic alterations - a major concern with past gene therapy experiments.‎ Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Centre for Health Security in the United States, who was not involved in the study, praised the treatment.‎ ‎“They did a very innovative experiment. It was safe,” he told Live Science. “It should be viewed as a success.”‎ Deng believes gene-editing technology could “bring a new dawn” to blood-related diseases such as AIDS and sickle cell anemia (镰刀形细胞性贫血).‎ ‎“Thanks to this new technology, the goal of a functional cure for AIDS is getting closer and closer,” he said.‎ ‎24. The technology of CRISPR is to ___________.‎ A. transplant cells B. encode genes C. remove proteins D. produce cells ‎25. What was the result of the treatment?‎ A. CCR5 and other genes in the patient’s cells were changed.‎ - 28 -‎ B. The number of cells infected by HIV decreased.‎ C. Some of the patient’s blood cells could resist HIV infection.‎ D. HIV no longer existed in the patient’s cells.‎ ‎26. What do we know about the experiment?‎ A. It provided an innovative way to cure AIDS patients.‎ B. It pointed out the problems of gene therapy.‎ C. It could offer a safe treatment for blood-related diseases.‎ D. It’s the first experiment to use gene-editing technology to treat AIDS.‎ ‎【答案】24. B 25. C 26. C ‎【解析】‎ 本文为说明文 。世界上最难治疗的疾病之一艾滋病现在有了新希望了，通过改变基因编码的方式，给治疗艾滋病4带来了曙光。‎ ‎24题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Chinese scientists have successfully used CRISPR technology - a method of gene editing - to treat a patient with HIV.” (中国科学家已经成功地利用CRISPR技术——一种基因编辑的方法——来治疗HIV患者。)可知，CRISPR技术就是用 一种基因编辑的方法。分析选项A. transplant cells移植细胞；B. encode genes编码基因；C. remove proteins去除蛋白质；D. produce cells产生细胞可知，B项与 题意相符，故选B。‎ ‎【25题详解】‎ 细节理解题。文章第六段中的“After being edited, the cells - and the blood cells they produce - have the ability to resist HIV infection” (经过编辑，这些细胞——以及它们产生的血细胞——有能力抵抗HIV感染。)可知，病人的一些血细胞可以抵抗艾滋病毒感染。分析选项可知C项符合题意，故选C。‎ ‎【26题详解】‎ 推理判断题。本题根据第 9段Amesh Adalja “They did a very innovative experiment. It was safe,” Amesh Adalja(他们做了一个有非常创新的实验。它是安全的。)倒数后两段Deng believes gene-editing technology could “bring a new dawn” to blood-related diseases such as AIDS and sickle cell anemia, “Thanks to this new technology, the goal of a functional cure for AIDS is getting closer and closer,”‎ - 28 -‎ ‎ (邓认为，基因编辑技术可以为艾滋病、镰状细胞性贫血等血液相关疾病“带来新的曙光”。有了这项新技术，功能性治疗艾滋病的目标就越来越接近了。)可知 ，这个实验可以为血液相关疾病提供一种安全的治疗方法。故选C。‎ C About four million people worldwide took to the streets on Friday, September 20, 2019, for the Global Climate Strike. The young protestors (抗议者), and their adult supporters, marched along city streets outside government buildings to urge leaders to take action against climate change.‎ The back-to- back protests are timed to coincide (与……一致) with the United Nations Climate Change Summit in New York City on Monday, September 23, 2019. The meeting is designed to challenge world leaders from 69 countries to discuss steps to handle climate change. The UN hopes their actions will help reduce global carbon emissions by 45% by 2030 and, if all goes well, eliminate them altogether by 2050.‎ While the strikes are in long-standing anger about the changing environment, the worldwide call for action is closely linked to teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg. The 16-year-old got well-known a year ago after she began spending Fridays outside the Swedish Parliament (国会) building in Stockholm to convince officials to take action against climate change. Her protests have inspired young people worldwide to take action in their cities.‎ Thunberg, who came from Sweden to New York City in an emissions- free sailboat, was one of the key speakers at the UN Climate Change Summit. On Monday, September 23, the teenager told lawmakers, “You all come to us young people for hope. How dare you? You’ve stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words, and yet, I’m one of the lucky ones. People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are falling down. So you have to listen to scientists and take immediate measures to help stop climate change.”‎ While Thunberg and other young climate activists are calling the recent global Climate Strike a victory in terms of its size and reach, they realize it’ ll take time to convince lawmakers to create real change. However, the teenager is hopeful they’ll begin to pay attention as more people of all ages join in the call-to-action.‎ - 28 -‎ ‎27. What can we know about the Global Climate Strike from the text?‎ A. It is to support the un climate Change Summit.‎ B. It is to raise teenagers environmental awareness.‎ C. It was led by adults but mainly included teenagers.‎ D. It was attended by millions of people in the world.‎ ‎28. What does the underlined word “eliminate” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. Join. B. Improve.‎ C. Get rid of. D. Stay away from.‎ ‎29. What is the third paragraph intended to show?‎ A. The role that Thunberg plays in the Strike.‎ B. Thunberg’s contributions to climate change.‎ C. The importance of the global climate Strike D. Thunberg’s opinions on the Global Climate Strike.‎ ‎30. What did Thunberg focus on expressing at the un climate Change Summit?‎ A. Humans’ carelessness is worsening climate.‎ B. Humans are suffering due to climate change.‎ C. Measures need taking to stop climate change.‎ D. Extreme climate change is drawing attention.‎ ‎【答案】27. D 28. C 29. A 30. C ‎【解析】‎ 本文为说明文。2019年9月20日星期五，全球估计有400万人走上街头，参加由年轻人发起的全球气候罢工。这些年轻的抗议者和他们的成年支持者沿着城市街道游行，或在政府大楼外游说，敦促领导人对气候变化采取积极行动。‎ ‎【27题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段 About four million people worldwide took to the streets on Friday, September 20, 2019, for the Global Climate Strike.可知，全球约有400万人在2019年9月20日星期五走上街头，参加全球气候大罢工。故选 D项。‎ ‎【28题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据上文The meeting is designed to challenge world leaders from 69 countries to discuss steps to handle climate change. The UN hopes their actions will - 28 -‎ ‎ help reduce global carbon emissions by 45% by 2030（这次会议的目的是向来自69个国家的世界领导人提出挑战，讨论应对气候变化的具体步骤，联合国希望他们的行动将有助于到2030年将全球碳排放减少45%）因此推断如果一切顺利，到2050年将全部消除碳排放。由此可知画线词的词义与C项意思相近。故选C项。‎ ‎【29题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第三段可知，这次大罢工归因于十几岁的气候活动人士葛丽塔·唐伯格。一年前，16岁的她开始在斯德哥尔摩的瑞典议会大楼说服官员们采取行动应对气候变化。她的个人抗议活动激发了世界各地的年轻人采取行动。由此可判断该段旨在说明葛丽塔·唐伯格的罢工中的作用，故选 A项。‎ ‎【30题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段可知，唐伯格是联合国气候变化峰会的主要发言人之一。9月23日星期一，她对立法者们说：“你们都来我们这些年轻人这里寻求希望。你怎么敢？你用你的空话偷走了我的梦想和我的童年，然而，我是幸运的人之一。无数人在遭受痛苦。无数人（因气候变化）死去。整个生态系统正在崩溃。因此你们必须立即采取措施帮助扭转气候变化。”由此可判断，唐伯格集中表达需要采取措施阻止气候变化。故选C项。‎ 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。‎ There are several different types of fire departments.

He was at home with his elder sister Jane. Tom was doing his homework when he heard raised voices. At first he thought nothing of it since customers in the motorcycle shop directly below their flat often became loud, but he soon realized this time it was different.‎ ‎“Quick! Quick! Remove the motorcycles from the shop.” someone yelled.‎ Then a thick burning smell filled the air. When Tom opened the front door of their flat to investigate, a thick cloud of smoke greeted him. The motorcycle shop had caught fire and people were running and crying.‎ Jane, who had been playing the violin in her room, hurried to the living room. They rushed out of the door and along the corridor（走廊）through the smoke.‎ They were heading towards the stairway at the far end of the corridor when Jane stopped in her track. She turned around and headed back the way they came. Tom had no idea what she was doing, but he followed suit.‎ Jane had suddenly remembered the lady in her 70s who lived next door to them, who they called Makcik, Malay for auntie. Jane began banging on Makcik’s door, but got no answer. As the smoke thickened around them, Tom could see many of their neighbors—some still in their pyjamas—running for safety. The thought of fear crossed his mind.‎ ‎“She would have run for safety like everyone else!” Tom cried. However, Jane refused to give up. “I know Makcik’s still inside.” She said she was familiar with ‎ - 28 -‎ Makcik’s daily routine and was certain she would still be sleeping. She pounded the door. “Go downstairs. Go now!

Frozen with fear, he stood rooted to the spot. He comprehended the gravity of the situation and held Jane’s hand tightly. By then, both of them were coughing and their eyes were stinging. Time seemed to stand still, though they were probably there for only two or three minutes. Tom begged Jane to run for safety as quickly as possible. Jane tried to shield her nose from the choking smoke and shook her head. She kept pounding against the door. Tom burst out crying.‎ ‎ Luckily, some neighbors passing by stopped and offered help. A sense of strength ‎ - 28 -‎ immediately replaced the mounting fear and anxiety in Jane’s mind. She told them Ms. Makcik must be still in the room. They forced the door open with all their might. Sure enough, Makcik was lying in bed, unconscious. She was carried downstairs and then rushed to the hospital, where she finally came to herself. People in the neighborhood felt relieved and Jane and Tom’s joy was immense.‎ ‎【解析】‎ 汤姆家楼下的汽车店发生了火灾，汤姆和姐姐Jane赶紧从家里从出来逃生。快到走廊尽头的时候，Jane突然停了下来，往回跑去。原来，她是要去救同住一楼的70多岁的Makcik。所给短文写到Jane坚持不懈的敲Makcik的门。要求学生续写这个故事。所给故事比较好理解，主要考查学生的基本理解能力和表达能力。‎ ‎ 所给范文符合故事的情节发展，突出了“正能量”。范文中，不仅描述了人物的具体行动，还描述了人物的内心感受，内容充实，符合实际。‎ ‎ ‎ - 28 -‎ - 28 -‎
