It's our bread and butter. I can't think of a treatment for childhood cancer that doesn't use vincristine.” Shortages of the drug will likely affect children throughout the country, he said, forcing doctors to make difficult decisions. “There is no substitution for vincristine that can be recommended，” Dr. Unguru said. “You either have to skip a dose or give a lower dose or beg or borrow.”‎ Vincristine is one of the drugs used to manage leukemia, the most common childhood cancer. The Children's Oncology Group, a group of researchers at hospitals and cancer centers, has made recommendations for changing clinical trial treatment rules involving vincristine, including checking the hospital's supply before trial enrollment, and considering using half the dose if the full amount is not available.‎ ‎“We are all disappointed，” said Dr. Michael Link, a doctor at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Without vincristine, many children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia will still be cured, “but this is a difficult disease to treat in general, and with one hand tied behind your back, it makes it much more ‎·14·‎ ‎ difficult，” Dr. Link said.‎ Until earlier this year, there were two suppliers of vincristine：Pfizer and Teva. In July, Teva made a “business decision to discontinue the drug，” according to the Food and Drug Administration(FDA). Since then, Pfizer has been the only supplier, and the company lately has been experiencing troubles with production. “Pfizer has experienced a delay, and we are working closely with them and exploring all ways to make sure this important cancer drug is available for the patients who need it，” the FDA said. Jessica Smith from Pfizer said the company would speed up additional shipments of the drug over the next few weeks in an effort to make up for Teva's withdrawal from the market.‎ ‎(　　)58. Which of the following statements of vincristine is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A. It is quite rare and expensive. B. It is an irreplaceable drug.‎ C. It is widely used in adult cancers. D. It used to be as common as bread and butter.‎ ‎(　　)59. We can learn from Dr. Link's words that ________．‎ A. vincristine will cause back pain B. the treatment without vincristine is almost impossible C. the treatment without vincristine can still be carried out D. lack of vincristine will promote drug research ‎(　　)60. What measures will the FDA take to solve the problem?‎ A. Exploring new ways to ship cancer drugs.‎ B. Making an effort to produce vincristine.‎ C. Cooperating with Pfizer to get more vincristine produced.‎ D. Persuading Pfizer and Teva to deal with the problem together.‎ C Over the southern hemisphere's summer, mercifully now at an end, Australia burned under a pitiless sun. Bush fires down the continent's eastern part consumed 46 macres of countryside, destroying homes, taking lives and driving rare animals towards extinction. To many Australians, the satellite pictures showing huge amounts of smoke drifting off to the east over the Great Barrier Reef seemed a threat to life in an age of manmade warming.‎ It turns out that high temperatures were doing great damage under the water as well. This month comes news that exceptionally warm seas have led the Great Barrier Reef, the world's biggest coral system, to suffer its third mass bleaching in five years. The bush and the reef: Australians almost define themselves by these two ecosystems, which once seemed boundless.‎ Coral bleaching takes place when sea temperatures rise sharply, causing the coral polyps that make up reefs to spray the algae(海藻) that generate their food via photosynthesis(光合作用). Without the coloured algae, coral soon dies, leaving the complex colonies a ghostly white. Reefs can recover from occasional bleachings：the fastestgrowing corals regenerate in a decade or so. But mass bleachings on the Great Barrier Reef are becoming ever more frequent. And the run of recent bleachings had already killed off relatively heatintolerant coral species. What is striking this year is that for the first time the bleaching extended to the southern part of the reef. There, closer to the pole, waters should be cooler. But not this year.‎ The biblical rains that put out the bush fires have also helped to lower water temperatures over the reef. The rains are proof to climatechange deniers that recent fires, droughts and floods are simply part of the natural cycle. They point with delight to the bush springing back to life. Yet while important habitats ‎ ‎·14·‎ depend upon fire to regenerate, this summer's fires, exceptionally, destroyed temperate rainforests too. Regarding the reef, the deniers play__down the damage and insist on the ability of “nature to fix nature”. That is despite the accumulated effect of successive bleachings from which reefs struggle to recover.‎ The bush fires threw the prime minister, Scott Morrison, off balance. Holidaying in Hawaii made him look out of touch, while his Liberal Party's cosy links to oil, gas, coal and ironore interests came under closer inspection. Mr. Morrison's official “representative” to the Great Barrier Reef, Warren Entsch, a Queensland politician, points out that “bleached corals are not dead corals” and predicts that many will recover. Although he admits climate change is a concern, he once complained that “forcing” youngsters to be worried about it is a form of “child abuse”. Most Australians care both about climate change and about the Great Barrier Reef—but not enough, alas, to call their government out over such ambivalence. ‎ ‎(　　)61. The greatest challenge to the recovery of the Great Barrier Reef is ________．‎ A. climate change B. bush fires C. heavy smoke D. high temperatures ‎(　　)62. The underlined expression “play down” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to “________”．‎ A. mention lightly B. think highly of C. criticize fiercely D. take seriously ‎ ‎(　　)63. What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A. The government is confident that nature will recover itself.‎ B. The government lays more emphasis on child abuse.‎ C. The government calls on the public to care about climate change.‎ D. The government admits climate change is high on the agenda.‎ ‎(　　)64. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Australia On Fire B. Life Under Threat C. Forest Fires Under Control D. Great Barrier Reef In Hot Water D Deo had grown up barefoot in Burundi, but for a peasant boy he had done well. He was twentyfour. Until recently he had been a medical student, for three years at or near the top of his class. But he had spent the past six months on the run.‎ He had one friend who had seen more of the world than East Central Africa, a fellow medical student named Jean. And it was Jean who had decided that New York was where he should go. Deo was traveling on a commercial visa. Jean's French father had written a letter identifying Deo as an employee on a mission to America. He was supposed to be going to New York to sell coffee. Deo had read up on coffee beans in case he was questioned. Jean's father had also paid for the plane tickets. A fat booklet of tickets.‎ He had heard of French soldiers behaving badly in Rwanda, and had even caught glimpses of them training militiamen(民兵) in the camps, but waking up and seeing a white person in the next seat wasn't alarming. No one called him a cockroach(蟑螂). No one held a machete(大砍刀)．‎ A voice was speaking to him. He turned and saw a policeman who seemed friendly. Deo spoke to him in French, but the man shook his head and smiled. He asked a question in what Deo guessed was English. Then a woman who had been sitting nearby got up and walked over French, at long last French, coming out of her mouth. Perhaps she could help, the woman said in French. Deo thought, “God,__I'm__still__in__your__hand．” She arranged to sit next to him on the flight to New York and asked him lots of questions. Deo wanted to pay her back for helping him. So he tried to answer her ‎·14·‎ ‎ questions. They talked most of the way to New York. After such long solitude(独处)，it felt wonderful to talk.‎ When he reached Immigration the agent stared at Deo's documents, then started asking questions in what had to be English. There was nothing to do except smile. The agent went off and came back with another man. He introduced himself to Deo in French. His name was Muhammad. He said he came from Senegal. Muhammad asked Deo the agents' questions and also some questions of his own. For the agents, he asked Deo, “Where are you coming from？” When Deo said he had come from Burundi, Muhammad made a pained face and said to him in French, “How did you get out？”‎ There was no time even to attempt an answer. The agents were asking another question：Deo's visa said he was here on business. What business? ‎ Selling coffee beans, Deo told them through Muhammad. Just keep smiling, Deo told himself.‎ How much money did he have?‎ Two hundred dollars, Deo said with pride. The cash had been a gift from Jean. Exchanged for Burundian francs, it could have bought a lot of cows. But neither Muhammad nor the agents looked impressed.‎ Where was he staying?‎ Jean had told him he'd be asked this. A hotel, he said.‎ The agents laughed. A week in a hotel on two hundred dollars?‎ In 1994, airport security wasn't what it soon would be. Muhammad said something in English to the agents. His words must have been the right ones, because after a few more questions, the agents shrugged at each other and let him through, into America.‎ He had no idea what he'd do next. After six months on the run, he was in the habit of not looking ahead. And what was there to fear？What could the man in the booth up ahead do to him? Whatever it might be, he'd already seen worse. God had taken care of him so far. And still was taking care of him, it seemed. As this seriouslooking stranger, Muhammad, walked him out of Customs, he said that Deo could stay with him in New York City. But Deo would have to wait here for three hours. Muhammad worked at the airport as a baggage handler. He had to finish his shift. Could Deo wait three hours?‎ ‎“Only three hours？” said Deo. “Of course！”‎ ‎(　　)65. Which of the following is the reason why Deo left his hometown?‎ A. Jean persuaded him to go to New York.‎ B. Jean's father paid for the plane tickets for him.‎ C. He was an employee on a business mission to America.‎ D. He wanted to flee his hometown to seek shelter in New York.‎ ‎(　　)66. How did the woman help Deo?‎ A. She arranged a seat for him.‎ B. She did the interpreting for him.‎ C. She asked the policeman to show mercy to him.‎ D. She talked with him which made him feel less lonely.‎ ‎(　　)67. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?‎ A. God is toying with him. B. God is taking him under his wing.‎ C. He is at the mercy of God. D. He can't break away from God.‎ ‎(　　)68. Hearing that Deo came from Burundi, Muhammad felt ________．‎ ‎·14·‎ A. happy B. sympathetic C. terrified D. relieved ‎(　　)69. The following statements about Deo are true, EXCEPT that ________．‎ A. he was a white person B. he was brave and optimistic C. he had a good academic performance D. he was grateful to those who had helped him ‎(　　)70. What would most likely happen to Deo later?‎ A. Selling coffee beans in New York.‎ B. Turning to Jean's father for help.‎ C. Being reduced to a beggar in the street.‎ D. Making a living in New York with Muhammad's help.‎ 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题　共35分)‎ 第四部分：任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。‎ The term “organizational culture” refers to the norms and values of an organization, which together make the personality of the company. These values and norms are shared by people working throughout the organization. They govern the way employees interact with each other, within the workplace. Therefore, improving organizational culture is the need of the hour, as people want to work for a company that enables them to keep a balance between their work and personal life. The organizations that treat their employees well and provide a good working atmosphere have shown an increase in the productivity of their employees. As a result, the attrition rates(损耗率) are also lowered, which saves a company the costs spent in hiring and training the employees. So, a healthy organizational culture is a winwin situation for the management, the customers, the shareholders and most importantly, the employees themselves.‎ When it comes to improving organizational culture, training your employees in the right way is an important step towards improving your organization's work culture. When your employees know how to do things in the right way and what the company expects from them, the rates of conflicts and errors can be brought down significantly. In addition, through the right training, your employees will become enthusiastic and be interested in working as a team and improving the work atmosphere as a whole. Then a productive environment will be created.‎ Another good way to bring about positive changes in the culture of the organization is by analyzing the existing culture and comparing it with the expectations of your employees. Bring changes accordingly. You can also organize discussions with your team members and talk about matters related to the current culture of the organization. Try to bring about the changes you find justified.‎ Conflicts are an unavoidable part of any organization and have direct bearing on the health of its culture. How they are handled is an indicator of the common organizational culture. Therefore, when conflicts do arise, the management must settle them quickly and kindly, in case they become worse over time. More importantly, an unmistakable and just conflict resolution mechanism should be created. If employees feel they are all being treated equally, they are more likely to accept their mistakes and the judgment of the management.‎ Since the organization is a collection of people, cooperation is a must to attain the objectives. Team building is vital in this respect and the management must show the willingness or intention to involve employees in this process. They may be fun activities, like sports, games or serious ones. At the end of the day, such exercises strengthen the team spirit and the employees' loyalty towards the organization, because ‎·14·‎ ‎ cooperative teamwork proves a healthy organizational climate.‎ Organizational culture Concept ‎●Organizational culture refers to a set of (71)________ norms and values of an organization.‎ ‎●These norms and values determine the interpersonal (72)________ in the workplace.‎ ‎(73)________ of organizational culture ‎●It helps the employees balance their work life and personal life. ‎ ‎●It can make the employees work more (74)________， thus lowering the attrition rates and saving money. ‎ ‎●It is (75)________ to all parties, especially the employees.‎ Approaches to improvingorganizational culture Providing right training ‎●Training can help the employees know the company's expectations, (76)________ the risk of conflicts and errors.‎ ‎●Right training helps develop the employees' enthusiasm and interest in teamwork.‎ Making adjustments ‎●Examine the present culture and make a(n) (77)________ between the employees' expectations and it. ‎ ‎●Get your team members to (78)________ the present organization culture.‎ Handling conflicts wisely ‎●Conflicts should be dealt with kindly without (79)________.‎ ‎●All conflicts must be solved fairly according to the rules.‎ Developing cooperation ‎(80)________ various activities to get all the employees involved and strengthen team spirit.‎ 第五部分：书面表达(满分25分)‎ 请阅读下面文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150 词左右的文章。‎ On March 30，2020, the Ministry of Education announced that the national college entrance examination, or gaokao, would be held on July 7 and 8, which is usually held on June 7 and 8.‎ Wang Hui, director of the ministry's Department of College Students Affairs, said the postponement is mainly to ensure the fairness of the exam.

First of all，while the college entrance examination is always being attached significance to, the safety of teachers and students can never be neglected during the special period，which must be given top priority to. Additionally, the new term put off by virtue of the epidemic, all the students in China need more time to get prepared，especially for the students having difficulty accessing online courses.‎ The exam postponement inevitably exerts an impact on my study. Rethinking my study plan and making it more efficient is high on the agenda. Meanwhile, I will make the most of the extra month to strengthen my strengths and compensate for my weaknesses to achieve allround development.‎ Success lying ahead, we are bound to embrace a bright future.‎ 听力材料 Text 1‎ M: Do you know Sally's new address?

If you turn the pages of a newspaper or magazine, again you find an advertisement. If you walk down the street, you see one advertising board after another. All day, every day, people who want to sell you something compete to catch your attention. As a result, advertisements are almost everywhere. In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. The government does not give money to mass media such as TV stations, newspapers, magazines and radio stations. They are all owned privately. So where does the money come from? From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses.‎ Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping your name before the public.” And some people thought that advertising was “truth well told.” Now more and more people describe it in this way: Advertising is the paid, nonpersonal, and usually persuasive description of goods, services and ideas through various media.‎ ‎·14·‎
