It is an organization that helps people who are in need. It may be because of a flood, a war or an earthquake. No matter how bad the situation is, it will always be there to help! But it hasn't always been this way. For example, in the United States, but for the passion( 热 情 )of a woman named Clara Barton, the American Red Cross may have never been formed! When Clara was young, she was very shy. One day when she was 11 years old, her elder brother, David, was badly injured. He was ill for two years. Clara cared for him the whole time. Through this experience she learned something very valuable about herself. She found out that she came alive when she cared for others. Soon, Clara began taking care of injured animals. Neighbors began bringing their pets to her. And, almost always, she made them better. When she was older, she became a nurse in the American Civil War and she helped save hundreds of soldiers. After the Civil War, Clara went to Europe for a holiday. But that did not last long. Soon she began caring for soldiers in battle once again! But this time, she learned about an organization called the Red Cross which worked alongside her on the battlefield. Its task was to help those who needed it most. She believed that the Red Cross was badly needed in America. Over several years, she asked 4 different Presidents to bring the Red Cross to America. They all said no. But then, thanks to her persistence, one of the Presidents changed his mind! And the American Red Cross was born. 21. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. Who Clara cared about most. B. Why Clara liked to care for others. C. What Clara did for the Red Cross. D. How Clara discovered her own value. 22. Clara first learned about the Red Cross when she . A. took a holiday in Europe B. cared for her brother C. helped injured soldiers in Europe D. worked as a nurse in the American Civil War 23. Which of the following can replace the underlined word "persistence" in the last paragraph? A. Encouragement. B. Determination. C. Bravery. D. Achievement. B Binge-watching(追剧)your favorite TV series is bad for your brain. Dr. Randall Wright, based in Texas, said the need to watch episode(集)after episode has a similar influence on the brain to gambling( 赌 博 ). What's more, it often leads to social loneliness, snacking on junk food and a shortage of exercise and sleep, which, over time, is bad for the brain. When you let auto play start the next episode, you can find out what happens next and your brain receives good feedback, Dr. Wright wrote in an article. This right-away satisfaction is similar to gambling where even after a win, you are not satisfied and want to continue playing. With binge-watching, you are not satisfied with stopping after episode five and want to continue watching. This cycle coupled with the snacking and the long time sitting can lead to unhealthy changes in your brain and body over time. Dr. Wright said, "Binge-watching itself is not bad. It becomes problematic when you are watching a third, fourth or fifth episode instead of doing healthy activities." But he said it is possible to avoid the bad influence of binge-watching with four tips, including staying away from salty, fatty, calorific foods, exercising before a binge-watching, setting an alarm for sleep and balancing TV viewing with socializing. If you add these tips to your binge-watching practice, you can create lasting healthy habits and still enjoy the now-and-then binge-watching time without hurting your brain. 24. In what way is binge-watching like gambling? A. The long time sitting. B. The changes of feeling. C. The snacking on junk food. D. The immediate satisfaction. 25. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The tips on how to develop a healthy lifestyle. B. The reasons why binge-watching is problematic. C. The ways to keep away from binge-watching. D. Do's and don'ts of binge-watching. 26. What may be the best title of the passage? A. III Health: The Result of Addiction B. Healthy Habits: A Must of A Better Life C. Binge-watching: A Killer of Your Brain D. TV Viewing: Gradual Harm on Your Health C Call it a mobility system or a wheelchair-it can be seen at the Tokyo airport moving on its own. It is helping with social distancing while fighting the spread of the coronavirus. It also helps older passengers and those who otherwise need assistance walking the last few steps to the boarding gate. The mobility system seats one person and runs on its own without hitting anything. It has a pre-programmed path of about 600 meters at Tokyo's Haneda International Airport. It was shown on Monday by WHILL, the company behind the technology. WHILL Chief Executive Satoshi Sugie said robotics and self-driving technology reduce the need for a human at the wheel. They are good for these times of "living with" coronavirus. The ride lasts several minutes. It travels from the security area to the boarding gate at a speed of 3.5 kilometers per hour. But many people hope the technology can help in other places, such as hospitals or parks. The technology uses sensors and cameras to see a clear path and avoid hitting those walking toward it. It could also help Japan free up laborers. Japan, like many other nations, suffers from a labor shortage. The technology could free a worker to do another job. Tests have been carried out at several airports since last year, including John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. The company hopes to put it in airports around the world. The person on the machine can start or stop it through a simple controller. It runs on batteries and is programmed to return to where it started when its passenger gets off. Anyone needing help walking long distances can use it at Terminal One at Haneda airport. It is called the "last-mile mobility", says WHILL. 27. What do we know about the mobility system? A. It can seat more than one person. B. It runs with the assistance of a controller. C. It helps older passengers to the boarding gate. D. It has a flexible path of about 600 meters. 28. What does "They" in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Humans at the wheel. B. The needs for human beings. C. These times of "living with" coronavirus. D. Robotics and self-driving technology. 29. What plays an essential(必要的)part in the technology? A. Sensors and cameras. B. The speed of the machine. C. The path of the ride. D. The distance of the ride. 30. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. The system runs completely on its own. B. The system has been put into use in the US. C. WHILL will continue to test the system in airports worldwide. D. The system is controlled by a passenger to return to the start. 第二节 七选五(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。(答题卡上若选 E 填涂 AB；F 填涂 AC；G 填涂 AD) Study Tips for Exams It happens at times that you study for whole nights before an exam but still fail to remember a word in the actual paper. 31 . The following are a few study tips for exams, which will help you to answer your papers with confidence. 32 . It is better to have all the study material with you before you start reading. This not only includes your texts and notes but also things like a dictionary and reference books with you. Study in advance. 33 .What most of the students do is to study only the so-called important points. As a result, even if the paper is easy, you get a low score. So start studying at least a month before the exams. If time does not permit you to learn your lessons, at least go through them regularly. Understand the lessons. Do not just recite the answers. Try to understand what you are reading for this is the best method for good recall at the time of exams. The major disadvantage of reciting the answers is that even if you forget one word of the answer during your examination, you are likely to go completely blank. 34 . Follow some effective study skills. There are some easy ways to study well, like reading the lesson casually, at least twice. 35 . When you start reading for the second time, read those underlined points first and then the rest of the text. Before going to exams, read only the underlined points. This is one of the last minute study tips for exams. A. Set down the study material beforehand. B. Collect the study material. C. But how do you deal with the pressure in study? D. This happens because of improper planning and too much stress. E. And while reading, mark the important points with a pencil and move on. F. The most common mistake that students make is that they start studying a day or two before exams! G. Instead of this, if you understand the lesson well, you can write the answer on your own at any time. 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节；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) 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The tale of a heroic pet Luke has always been my closest companion these past five years.

"One dollar and eleven cents, ” Michelle answered in a low voice. "And it's all the money I have, but I can some more if I need to." "Well," smiled the man.

Knowing that you'll travel around China during your vacation, I feel very happy for you and here are the details about how to buy train tickets. Train tickets can be bought online or from the ticket office of the train station, and your passport is required either way. If you book it online, you can save the trouble of going to the station and waiting in a queue. But you still need to get your ticket at the ticket office since the ticket vending machine doesn't support passports. So, the best way is to go to the train station ahead of time and purchase your ticket right on the spot. May you have a great time! Yours, Li Hua 第二节 概要写作（满分 25 分） Paragraph 1 : Holding the man's hand firmly , Michelle took him home. The little girl walked in such a hurry that she even forgot to introduce herself to the man.

The operation was completed with payment of one dollar and eleven cents and it wasn't long before Jack was home again and doing well. Michelle was very happy.

The little girl reminded me of my own sister. It was she who saved my life. Deeply impressed by her innocence, I finally decided to help the family out of trouble.

(4) Text 5 W: You’re starting to lose your hair on the back of your head, sweetie. You shouldn’t cut your hair so short anymore. (5) M: Yeah, I know. I saw myself in a photo the other day.
