They were once among the most popular toys. 1960 – Etch A Sketch French electrician Andre Cassagnes had the idea of a drawing toy with a joy stick, glass screen, and aluminum (铝) powder. Using that idea, the Ohio Art Co. launched (推出) the Magic Screen in1960, and you could erase the picture with a shake of your hands. You can still find the toy today. 1964 – SuperBall What happens when you accidentally create a plastic ball that jumps? The toy company, Wham-O Inc., buys your idea and it ends up selling millions. That’s exactly what happened to Norman Stingley, a chemical engineer who came upon SuperBall. At one time, Wham-O had to produce over 170,000 balls a day to keep up with the demand. Unbelievably, the National Football Game named the Super Bowl game (an well-known American football game) after this jumping ball. 1964 – G.I. Joe In 1964, Hasbro toy company created G.I. Joe, a line of action figures designed to represent the 4 branches of the US Armed Forces – Action Soldier (Army), Action Sailor (Navy), Action Pilot (Air Force), and the Action Marine (Marine Corps). G.I. Joe was imagined as an excellent military unit devoted to defending citizens’ freedom against the evil persons. It has attracted the imagination of boys around the world. 1965 – Operation An unsteady hand is your downfall (败落的原因) in the game of Operation, which was invented by John Spinello, a student at the University of Illinois. Later, Spinello sold his right to the toy to a well-known toy designer Marvin Glass for a sum of $500. Operation is currently made by Hasbro, with estimated sales of $40 million. 1. Which toy has a relationship with the sports event? A. Etch A Sketch. B. SuperBall . C. G.I. Joe. D. Operation. 2. Who probably are most interested in G.I. Joe? A. Those fond of arts. B.

A 【解析】 本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了几款曾经最受欢迎的玩具。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据1964 – SuperBall中Unbelievably, the National Football Game named the Super Bowl game (an well-known American football game) after this jumping ball. 令人难以置信的是,国家足球赛以这个跳跃球命名为超级碗赛(美国著名足球赛)。可知,SuperBall 和体育赛事有很大关系。故选B项。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据1964 – G.I. Joe中G.I. Joe was imagined as an excellent military unit devoted to defending citizens’ freedom against the evil persons. G.I. Joe被认为是优秀的部队,致力于捍卫公民的自由,反对邪恶。因此,喜欢勇敢士兵的人可能对G.I. Joe最感兴趣。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据1965 – Operation中An unsteady hand is your downfall (败落的原因) in the game of Operation, which was invented by John Spinello, a student at the University of Illinois. 一只不稳定的手是你在Operation游戏中的失败,这是由伊利诺伊大学的学生约翰·斯皮内洛发明的。如果你想成功地玩Operation,你应该保持你的手稳定。故选A项。 B Here are some tips from experts for writing that all-important application essay, which can often mean the difference between getting accepted — or rejected — by the school of your choice. The essay is your loudspeaker — your view of the world and your ambitions. It’s not just a resume or a regurgitation of everything you’ve done. It needs to tell a story with passion using personal, entertaining anecdotes that showcase your character, your interests, your values, your life experiences, your views of the world, your ambitions and even your sense of humor. Emphasize volunteer work or other ways you’ve helped people or made your community a better place. It helps if the activity is related to the subject you want to study. For example, Christopher Rim of Command Education Group, which coaches students, remembers that one student who wanted to become a dentist, set up a nonprofit and held fund-raisers to distribute toothbrushes, toothpaste and other dental products to homeless shelters. Admissions staff members want to know how your presence will make the college a better place. Mention internships, summer courses, extracurricular activities or lab work that show steps you’ve taken to learn and understand your field of interest. That will help show you know the field you’ve chosen to study and are passionate about it. Explain with knowledge and passion why you want to study at this particular college rather than at others. Tell why the school’s size, curriculum, social atmosphere, location, professors or history influenced your choice. Correct spelling, grammar and punctuation are critical. Use grammar, syntax and writing with a level of sophistication that shows you’re ready for college. Never use text-style abbreviations or rude or profane language. After the essay is submitted, check your email and voice mail daily to make sure you see and respond promptly to messages from admissions staff members. Many students check only texts and sometimes miss emails asking follow-up questions or requesting an interview. Hafeez Lakhani of Lakhani Coaching summed up the essay this way: “Every college is like a dinner table. What will make you the most interesting contributor to that dinner table conversation? What will make you help everyone else have a more interesting experience?” A good essay, rich with anecdotes and personality, will answer those questions and stand out from the pile. 4. What should be covered in an application essay? A. Your community, summer courses, and extracurricular activities. B. Your passion, sense of humor and your resume. C. Your college, views of the world, and interest. D. Your volunteer work, internships, and lab work. 5. What does the underlined word “anecdotes” mean? A. documents B. stories C. descriptions D. jokes 6. How to persuade the admissions staff members to accept you? A. Your life experiences are rich enough to learn the courses well. B. You are kind to the homeless and eager to donate daily necessities C. Your being present at the college will make it a better one. D. You want to study at the school due to its popularity. 7. Which of the following is appropriate according to the author? A. Apply grammar and sentences which is not that simple. B. Write the application in a style of text abbreviation. C. Use vulgar language to show you really care. D. Employ correct spelling and pronunciation. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何写一篇出色的大学申请书。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中Emphasize volunteer work or other ways you’ve helped people or made your community a better place.(强调志愿者工作或其他你帮助人们或让你的社区变得更好的方式)以及第四段中Mention internships, summer courses, extracurricular activities or lab work that show steps you’ve taken to learn and understand your field of interest.(提到实习、暑期课程、课外活动或实验室工作,表明你已经采取措施学习和理解你感兴趣的领域)。由此可知,在申请书当中应包括志愿者工作,实习经历以及实验室工作。结合选项,故选D。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第二段中that showcase your character, your interests, your values, your life experiences, your views of the world, your ambitions and even your sense of humor.(展示你的性格、你的兴趣、你的价值观、你的生活经历、你的世界观、你的野心,甚至你的幽默感),由此可知,此处讲述的是用个人有趣的事来展示你的性格、你的兴趣、你的价值观、你的生活经历、你的世界观、你的野心,甚至你的幽默感。故划线词“anecdotes”应意为“故事;有趣的事”。结合选项,故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中Admissions staff members want to know how your presence will make the college a better place.(招生工作人员想知道你的加入将如何让学校变得更好)由此可推知,若想让招生工作人员接受你,那么你得让他们知道你的加入将如何让学校变得更好。结合选项,故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中Correct spelling, grammar and punctuation are critical. Use grammar, syntax and writing with a level of sophistication that shows you’re ready for college.(正确的拼写、语法和标点符号至关重要。使用语法、句法和写作的复杂程度表明你已经为上大学做好了准备)由此可知,申请书中要使用一些复杂的语法,句法和写作,故运用的语法和句子,不要用的太简单。结合选项,故选A。 C Jenny was a bright-eyed, pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace priced at $2.50. How she wanted that necklace! When she asked her mother if she would buy it for her, her mother said, “Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I’ll tell you what. I’ll buy you the necklace, and when we get home we can make up a list of housework that you can do to pay for the necklace. And don’t forget that for your birthday, Grandma just might give you a whole dollar bill, too. Okay?” Jenny agreed, and her mother bought the pearl necklace for her. Jenny worked on her housework very hard every day, and sure enough, her grandma gave her a brand-new dollar bill for her birthday. Soon Jenny had paid off the pearls. How Jenny loved those pearls. She wore them everywhere to kindergarten, bed and when she went out with her mother to run errands (跑腿). The only time she didn’t wear them was in the shower. Her mother had told her that they would turn her neck green! Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would get up from his favorite chair every night and read Jenny her favorite story. One night when he finished the story, he said, “Jenny, do you love me?” “Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you,” the little girl said. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” “Oh! Daddy, not my pearls!” Jenny said. “But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. And you can have her tea party outfit, too. Okay?” “Oh no, darling, that’s okay.” Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss. “Good night, little one.” A week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story. “Do you love me?” “Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” “Well, then, give me your pearls.” “Oh, Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her? She’s my favorite. Her hair is so soft, and you can play with it and braid it and everything. You can have Ribbons if you want her, Daddy,” the little girl said to her father. “No, that’s okay,” her father said and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. “God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams.” Several days later, when Jenny’s father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting on her bed and her lip was trembling. “Here, Daddy,” she said, and held out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let it slip into her father’s hand. With one hand her father held the plastic pearls and the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue velvet box. Inside of the box were real, genuine, beautiful pearls. He had had them all along. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap stuff so that he could give her the real thing. 8. Why did the mother tell Jenny the plastic pearl necklace “cost an awful lot of money”? A. She was discouraging Jenny from buying it. B. She was telling Jenny to ask her grandma for help. C. She was reminding Jenny of its true value. D. She was encouraging Jenny to get it by her hard work. 9. Which of the following was NOT related to the fact that Jenny could get the plastic pearl necklace? A. She promised to work on the housework hard. B. She was lucky to have her birthday coming near. C. She went out with her mother to run errands. D.

She was unwilling to exchange her necklace for the real one. 11. Which of the following is the most suitable for the title of the story? A. The Real Pearl Necklace B. The Parental Hidden Love C The Decision of Honesty D. The Choice of Luck 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. A 【解析】 本文为一篇记叙文。文章讲述了詹妮看中了一件很喜欢的珍珠项链,通过干家务活买下了它,她的父亲多次向她索要珍珠项链,都被她拒绝了。最终她决定把珍珠项链送给了父亲,这时父亲告诉珍妮她的项链是塑料的,并送给了珍妮一件真正的珍珠项链。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段I’ll buy you the necklace, and when we get home we can make up a list of housework that you can do to pay for the necklace.可知,我会给你买项链,等我们回家后,我们要列一张清单,上面写着你可以做哪些家务来支付项链的费用。由此推知,母亲告诉珍妮塑料珍珠项链花了很多钱是因为她想鼓励珍妮通过自己的努力得到它。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段I’ll buy you the necklace, and when we get home we can make up a list of housework that you can do to pay for the necklace.

But it might be time to unlearn that training — this summer, a group of culture addicts, artists and community organizers are inviting New Yorkers to write all over the walls of an old house on Governor’s Island. The project is called Writing On It All, and it’s a participatory writing project and artistic experiment that has happened on Governor’s Island every summer since 2013. “Most of the participants are people who are just walking by or are on the island for other reasons, or they just kind of happen to be there,” Alexandra Chasin, artistic director of Writing On It All, tells Smithsonian.com. The 2016 season runs through June 26 and features sessions facilitated by everyone from dancers to domestic workers. Each session has a theme, and participants are given a variety of materials and prompts and asked to cover surfaces with their thoughts and art. This year, the programs range from one that turns the house into a collaborative essay to one that explores the meaning of exile (流放). Governor’s Island is a national historic landmark district long used for military purposes. Now known as “New York’s shared space for art and play,” the island, which lies between Manhattan and Brooklyn in Upper New York Bay, is closed to cars but open to summer tourists who flock for festivals, picnics, adventures, as well as these “legal graffiti (涂鸦)” sessions. The notes and art scribbled (涂画) on the walls are an experiment in self-expression. So far, participants have ranged in age from 2 to 85. Though Chasin says the focus of the work is on the activity of writing, rather than the text that ends up getting written, some of the work that comes out of the sessions has stuck with her. “One of the sessions that moved me the most was state violence on black women and black girls,” says Chasin, explaining that in one room, people wrote down the names of those killed because of it. “People do beautiful work and leave beautiful messages.” 12. What does the project Writing On It All invite people to do? A. Unlearn their training in drawing. B. Participate in a state graffiti show. C. Cover the walls of an old house with graffiti. D. Exhibit their artistic creations in an old house. 13. What did the project participants do during the 2016 season? A. They were free to scribble on the walls whatever came to their mind. B. They expressed their thoughts in graffiti on the theme of each session. C. They learned the techniques of collaborative writing. D. They were required to cooperate with other creators. 14. What kind of place is Governor’s Island? A. It is a historic site that attracts tourists and artists. B. It is an area now accessible only to tourist vehicles. C. It is a place in Upper New York Bay formerly used for exiles. D. It is an open area for tourists to enjoy themselves year round. 15. What does Chasin say about the project? A. It just focused on the sufferings of black females. B. It helped expand the influence of graffiti art. C. It has started the career of many creative artists. D. It has created some meaningful artistic works. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项在老房子的墙上涂鸦的活动。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段But it might be time to unlearn that training — this summer, a group of culture addicts, artists and community organizers are inviting New Yorkers to write all over the walls of an old house on Governor’s Island.可知,但现在或许是时候忘掉它了——今年夏天,一群文化迷、艺术家和社区组织者邀请纽约人在州长岛上的一栋老房子的墙上涂鸦。由此可知,Writing On It All项目邀请人们在旧房子的整个墙壁上涂鸦。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段The 2016 season runs through June 26 and features sessions facilitated by everyone from dancers to domestic workers.

The next part of my speech consists of some advice, which is rarely valued, seldom remembered, never followed. As Oscar Wilde said, ____16____ So, here comes the advice. First, every time you celebrate an achievement, ____17____ Thank your parents and friends who supported you, thank your professors who were inspirational, and especially thank the other professors whose less-than brilliant lectures forced you to teach yourself. To your fellow students who have added immeasurably to your education during those late night discussions, hug them. Second, in your future life, cultivate a generous spirit. ____18____ Leave the change on the table. In a successful cooperation, everybody gets 90 percent of the profit. My third piece of advice is as follows: As you begin this new stage of your lives, follow your passion. If you don’t have a passion,don’t be satisfied until you find one. ____19____ When I was your age, I was incredibly single-minded in my goal to be a physicist. After college, I spent eight years as a graduate student and postdoc at Berkeley, and then nine years at Bell Labs. During that my time, my central focus and professional joy was physics. Here is my final advice. Pursuing a personal passion is important, but it should not be your only goal. When you are old and gray, and look back on your life, you will want to be proud of what you have done. The source of that pride won’t be the things you have acquired or the recognition you have received. ___20___ A. It will be the lives you have touched and the difference you have made. B. In all negotiations, don’t bargain for the last, little advantage. C. “I like to do all the talking myself. It saves time, and prevents arguments.” D. “The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself.” E. Life is too short to go through it without caring deeply about something. F. be thankful to those who made it possible. G. Change your manners when you are dealing with others. 【答案】16. D 17. F 18.

Four days into a national lockdown to stem the outbreak, the French government spokeswoman, Sibeth Ndiaye, warned that face masks were so ____43____ (familiar) that wearing them was too difficult technically and could even be “counterproductive (适得其反).” Even Thursday morning, when ____44____ (ask) whether she wore a mask or made her children wear one, she said, “Oh, no, not at all.” This taboo is falling fast, not only in France but across Western countries, after increasing ____45____(cry) from experts who say the practice is effective in curbing the coronavirus pandemic. The shift for Western nations is profound and has had to overcome not merely the logistical challenges of securing enough masks, which are significant enough, but also a deep ____46____ (culture) resistance and even stigma (污名) associated with mask-wearing, ____47____ some Western leaders described flatly as “alien.” ___48___ (seem), it won’t be for much longer. After discouraging people from wearing face masks, France, like the United States, has begun urging its citizens ____49____ (wear) basic or homemade ones outside. And some parts of Europe are moving faster than the United States by requiring masks instead _____50_____ simply recommending their use. 【答案】41. the 42. causing 43. unfamiliar 44. asked 45. cries 46. cultural 47. which 48. Seemingly 49. to wear 50. of 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。介绍了随着新冠病毒开始席卷欧洲,西方一些国家先是劝阻人们不要戴口罩,转变为要求人们带上口罩。 【41题详解】 考查定冠词。定冠词the用在形容词very、only、same等词的前边。此空后接形容词only+名词,应该用the修饰,意为“巴黎只有亚洲游客戴口罩”。故填the。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意:巴黎——直到几周前,巴黎还只有亚洲游客戴口罩,随着新冠病毒开始席卷欧洲,这引起了法国当地人的困惑、怀疑,甚至敌意。分析句子可知,动词cause与逻辑主语“Asian tourists were the only mask wearers in Paris,”之间是主动关系,应该用动词的现在分词作状语。故填causing。 【43题详解】 考查形容词变形。句意:法国政府发言人Sibeth Ndiaye警告,人们对口罩太不熟悉,从技术上说,戴口罩难度太大,甚至可能会“适得其反”。结果状语从句结构是:so+形容词+that(如此……以至于……)。so后接形容词;由句意可知,此处意为“不熟悉”。因此将形容词familiar(熟悉的)变成形容词unfamiliar(不熟悉的)。故填unfamiliar。 【44题详解】 考查状语从句的省略。when引导是时间状语从句中主语与主句主语相同,且从句谓语动词是be动词时,从句可省略主语谓语。由完整的句子“when she was asked whether she wore a mask or made her children wear one,”可知,省略主语和谓语之后,应该填asked。故填asked。 【45题详解】 考查名词复数。形容词increasing后修饰名词,因此此空填名词;又根据介词短语“from experts”作后置定语可知,是很多专家呼吁,因此此空名词应为复数。故填cries。 【46题详解】 考查词性转换。形容词修饰名词,此空后为名词resistance,故将名词culture变成形容词cultural。故填cultural。 【47题详解】 考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词是mask-wearing ,关系词在从句中作“described”的宾语,因此由which来引导。故填which。 【48题详解】 考查副词。句意:看起来,这种情况不会持续太久。副词作状语,修饰整个句子“it won’t be for much longer.”。因此将动词seem变成副词seemingly。此空位于句首,单词首字母大写。故填Seemingly。 【49题详解】 考查动词搭配。动词搭配urge sb. to do sth. 意为“力劝某人做某事”。故填to wear。 【50题详解】 考查固定短语。句意:欧洲一些地区比美国动作更快,他们不是简单地建议戴口罩,而是要求人们戴上口罩。instead of 意为“代替;(是……)而不是……”。故填of。 第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分) 第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) 51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加: 在此处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出修改的词。 删除: 把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。 修改: 在错的词下划一横线,并在其下面写出修改后的词。 注意: 1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词; 2.只允许修改 10 处,多者(从11处起)不计分。 I went to watch the ballet, the Peony Pavilion last Sunday’s evening.
