The traveler, who was born with a bone disease, had her right leg amputated (截肢) at the age of four. Although the amputation caused hardships for Gallagher early on, she now treats it as an inspiration for living her best life. To spread that message, Gallagher has taken to social media, where she shares photos of her travels across the globe, but instead of simply using a geo-tag, she writes her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture. Now she has been taking pictures across Europe, which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona, posing with a waffle in Brussels, taking in the spectacular Parthenon temple in Athens and enjoying a river cruise in Budapest, all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg. " I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it. One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalk-board, " Gallagher said. " My mum and grand-mother weren't too keen on the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it, so I did.” Gallagher said people often stare when she's writing on her leg, but once she shares the photos she receives only praise and encouragement." My leg hasn’t stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to do, " she said. " I don't know if it's my determination to prove to myself that I can do it, but anyway, I've been able to keep up with my peers and lead a pretty great life." Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams. If life gives you an artificial leg, make art. 21. What message did Gallagher want to spread in her special way? A. She enjoys her travelling across the globe. B. She suffers little from her legs amputation. C. She looks on her misfortune as another form of blessing. D. She has exactly fallen in love with posting photos online. 22. Gallagher can best be described as_______. A. determined and creative B. friendly and generous C. helpful and ambitious D. independent and sensible 23. Which of the following might be the best title for the text? A. Never Too Late to Share B. A Special Artificial Leg C. An Outstanding Photographer D. Gallagher's Summer Holiday B On a bright summer morning,many young swimmers gather at a local swimming pool in the state of Maryland. They are members of a competitive summer swim team. As they practice their strokes and cut seconds off of their times, they are getting lots of physical exercise and vitamin D from the sun. However, the benefits of belonging to a sports team are not just health-related. Team sports also help to build many life skills. The coach of the swim team is Paul Waas. He explains how swim team teaches the team members skills like discipline (纪律) and focus. "I think the discipline comes into play when you're talking about focusing on the details that your coaches are saying as it makes you faster rather than just going up and down the pool the same way you have every time. So, when you can focus on what you're doing right and what you can do better and then you'll see the improvement. I think they see that from their peers and then it challenges them to do better themselves. " But discipline and focus are just two of the life skills that team sports can teach. There is also responsibility, goal-setting and working within a group. Again, here is Coach Waas. " I've had kids who, as 7-year-olds on the team, could barely pay attention in practice and were only interested in who was going first. And now they've come back as S-year-olds and they've set some goals. And now they have things that they want to achieve. They see the record board and they want their name up there. " These life skills can help a child later in life. An article published in the magazine Fast Company notes reasons why a company should consider employing former athletes. The writers argue that people who played sports in school are: focused on goals, strong communicators, team players, good at managing their time, and resilient-meaning they do not give up when things get difficult. Some studies have found that team sports could be especially good for women. A series of studies by the company Ernst & Young found that 90 percent of women in so-called "C-suite" positions (like chief executive officer, or CEO and chief financial officer, or CFO) at several major companies had played sports. 24. What can we infer from paragraph 1? A. Bright summer mornings are perfect for swimming. B. Swimming can be beneficial to us more than in health. C. Being admitted to a swimming team can be competitive. D. Being on a sports team benefits children in many aspects. 25. Which of the following will Paul Waas agree with? A. Stress from peers makes kids discouraged. B. Kids may get inspired by peers' improvements. C. Kids can make improvements once they join a team. D. 7-year-old kids in the swimming team can learn nothing. 26. The author wrote the passage to . A. advise taking up various team sports B. analyze an upsetting social problem C. call on readers to care for sports safety D. share with readers his personal experiences C Garbage sorting has become a hot issue around China, especially after Shanghai began carrying out a regulation on July 1. Beijing, as a forerunner in environmental protection, has thus been expected to follow suit. The capital of the country has long been campaigning for sorting and recycling household waste, as part of its environmental drive for sustainable growth, local media reported. The current regulation gives garbage sorting responsibilities to government departments, property management groups and other organizations. It also gives rules for companies, outlining how they're responsible for waste collection, transportation and treatment. Only individuals don't take the responsibilities. The long-awaited revision will soon change the situation, "Taking out the trash without sorting it properly will be illegal," said Sun Xinjun, director of the Beijing Commission of Urban Management. In Shanghai, violators are now fined up to 200 yuan ($30) for trash-sorting violations. The maximum fine in Beijing will not be less than that, he said. The Beijing city government first set out to promote garbage sorting in 2009. Authorities have since called on citizens to sort their household waste into four types--recyclable waste, kitchen trash, dangerous waste and others--and leave it in a corresponding dustbin or trash can. Blue-colored dustbins signify items within are recyclable, green represents kitchen trash, red corresponds to dangerous materials and grey to other waste. To promote the awareness of garbage sorting and expand the base of participants, authorities have employed workers to help residents on the spot. With intelligent devices, those who throw in recyclable waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points, which can be used to buy daily goods. At some communities, there are no color-coded dustbins. Instead, a scheduled garbage collection service is offered to help improve the environment. In other communities, workers offer a door-to-door service to collect recyclables or kitchen waste. Beijing Environmental Sanitation Engineering Group has been promoting new garbage sorting facilities such as recycling cabinets and smart kitchen waste trash cans since 2016, Xinhua News Agency reported. Nearly 26,000 metric tons of household waste is generated across Beijing on a daily basis and 29 terminal garbage disposal facilities are working at full capacity. Nearly 9.3 million tons of household waste was processed in the city last year. 27. According to the passage, which dustbins should some used coke cans be thrown into? A. Grey-colored dustbins. B. Red-colored dustbins. C. Green-colored dustbins. D. Blue-colored dustbins. 28. We can learn from the passage that . A. new technology has been applied to help deal with garbage B. Beijing carried out a more severe rule on garbage sorting than Shanghai C. the change of the current regulation has aroused objection among citizens D. the amount of household waste in Beijing is far from something disturbing 29. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Sort Garbage in China B. The Current Regulation in Beijing C. Garbage Collection in Beijing D. Waste Recycling Project Matters 30. The passage can be sorted as . A. a book review B. a travel brochure C. an environment report D. a geography essay 第二节(共5个小题;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。 As the world puts increased pressure on kids to be winners, parents tend to make it their mission to help their kids succeed in every possible way. But now there’s a growing realization among teachers and other experts who work with children that kids increasingly need help in learning how to fail. So how do parents teach kids to fail? The following steps may be of help. l Show your understanding Understand your child when he’s disappointed and frustrated. Don’t just say, “It’s okay. You’ll do better next time.” It’s useless to brush off a child’s feelings of frustration and disappointment. 31 For example, “I see you’re really disappointed, and I know you really wanted to do better.” l Make yourself a model It’s wise for you to first explain that failure is a part of life and you can share examples of “failures” you’ve ever had, such as losing out on a promotion at work or failing to accomplish an important task. 32 l Make it a teachable moment Make it a teachable moment 33 You and your child can try to come up with what he can do next time for a better chance at success. For instance, can he study differently or talk to the teacher about the problem? Can he change something in the future? It’s all about problem-solving. l 34 It can be very tough to watch your child fall down, but he can only learn how to handle disappointment through trial and error. As books like The Blessings of a Skinned Knee and the newly released How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go underline, parents must stop lending a helping hand. 35 Learning to fail can be painful. But kids will only succeed if they can acquire the skills to handle whatever life throws on their way. A. Step back and allow kids to fail. B. Watch your child fall and give a hand. C. A child’s failure is a chance for parents to teach problem-solving skills. D. Afterwards, you can model how to handle the disappointment in your life. E. Instead, you need to change the language to show your true understanding. F. They must learn to handle their own disappointment through trial and error. G. Otherwise, you rob children of the very experiences that require problem-solving. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节 完形填空(共20个小题;每小题1分,满分20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。 We love letters.

Five years later, she is still the main 51 behind one-million-lovely-letter.com and has personally written 4,000 letters offering hope and 52 to strangers. The thought behind a letter 53 as much as its contents. "I never tell anyone that 54 is going to be OK," Ann Bickley says, "I am letting someone know that there is someone in the world who 55 them.

When the early immigrants came to this country, they brought the idea that work was the way to God and heaven. This attitude still influences America today. Work is not only important for the salary, but also for social and psychological working, being productive. For most Americans, they are what they do. What happens, then, when a person retires at the age of sixty-five or seventy? It’s easy to imagine that retirement is no easy thing. Retirees often feel they are unproductive and no longer needed by others. Once people retire, they may also get into financial trouble. Many people rely on Social Security checks every month. During their working years, employees contribute a certain percentage of their salaries to the government. When people retire, they receive this money as income. These checks do not provide enough money to live on, however, because prices are increasing very rapidly. After retirement, they have to change their lifestyles. They have to spend carefully to be sure that they can afford to buy food, fuel, and other necessities. Of course, not all senior citizens feel sad when they are in face of retirement. Working for so many years, they eventually have time to spend with their families or to enjoy their hobbies such as reading, traveling or joining some senior citizen clubs. Some continue to work part time; others choose to do volunteer work like helping young people to get started in new business. American government is taking steps to ease the problems of retired people. They are building new housing, offering discounts in stores and museums and on buses, and providing other services, such as free courses, food service, and help with housework. It is wise to do so. Retired citizens are an important part of the population and their special needs must be concerned about. After all, everyone will be a senior citizen someday. 2019-2020学年度第一学期期中考试 参考答案 听力 1—5 ACBAC 6—10 ACBBA 11—15BCABC 16—20 CABCA 阅读理解 21-23 CAB 24-26 DBA 27-30 DACC 31-35 EDCAG 完形填空 36-40 BCADC 41-45 ABDBC 46-50 DCDAB 51-55 ABCDA 语法填空 56. is put/ has been put 57.probably 58. removed 59. but/ yet 60. to earn 61. in 62. ruins 63. challenging 64. them 65. what 单词拼写 66. fortunately 67. overcoming 68. entertains 69.
