（每空一词)Nature’s WarningsWhen the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, beware! A dangerous storm might be coming. Storms are frightening. Watch for flashes of lightning. Listen for thunder. If nature sends these warnings, don’t wait for rain. Act right away to keep safe.Steps to keep safeAt the first flash of lightning, quickly get inside a building or a car. Do not go into a shed or baseball dugout. They are not closed like a building, so they are not safe.Even after you are indoors, be careful. It is not smart to go near doors and windows. They can blow in or break. A room with no windows is the safest place to be.Do not wash your hands during a storm. Do not use anything that runs on electricity either. Water and electrical lines are like roads for lightning. Even if you really want to play computer games, don’t! It is better to be bored than to risk getting hurt. Try reading a book instead. Reading is more fun than playing computer games.If you can’t get to somewhere safe, stay out in the open. You may feel safe under a tree, but that is not a good place to be. Lightning is pulled toward tall poles and trees. Stay down low in an open space and cover your ears to protect them. Loud thunder can damage your hearing.76. dark 77. waiting 78.

are from the traditional all the way to the totally experimental（实验的）.They are in different styles and subjects,but they are all “good parts”.♦Night Sky with Exit Wounds by Ocean VuongIt is the first poetry collection from Ocean Vuong.Vuong’s style matches the heavy subjects he is looking for.In his poetry,he mainly showed the sadness of the loss of his father and his experiences as a wartime refugee（难民）.There is a certain wonderful quality to his writing.♦Lunch Poems by Frank O’HaraIf you like a conversational style,Lunch Poems might be the poetry book for you.Personal,funny,and easy,the collection perfectly shows the casual（轻松）voice of Frank O’Hara,an outstanding man of the New School Movement in late-’50s New York.As the name suggests,most of the poems were written during lunch break at work,bringing real life alive by the writing.♦100 Selected Poems by E.E.CummingsIt’s a pity that more people don’t take E.E.Cumming seriously.Yet,his poetry is sometimes experimental.Cummings tried to show his feelings in its own form.♦The Complete Poems by Elizabeth BishopIn my opinion,any kind of fantastic poetry books must include Elizabeth Bishop.Highly skilled,Bishop was one of the most powerful voice of the 20th century.She mostly worked within traditional forms,but the forms led to surprising effects,bringing classic styles and modern ones together.46.Whose poetry talks about the war?A.Frank O’Hara’sB.Ocean Vuong’sC.E.E.Cumming’sD.Elizabeth Bishop’s47.Which poetry collection shows us the real world?A.Lunch PoemsB.100 Selected PoemsC.The Complete PoemsD.Night Sky with Exit Wounds48.What does the author think of Elizabeth Bishop’s poetry?A.It is funnyB.It is personalC.It is excellentD.It is experimentalBA wise old man saw his grandson having an argument with his wife.He asked his grandson, “Why do you raise（提高）your voice every time you argue with your wife?”He grandson answered, “I raise my voice so that my voice is heard.”“Your wife is close enough for her to hear you when you say the same sentence in a clam manner.Why do you have to raise your voice?”the grandfather asked.“Perhaps because I need to let off some steam by raising my voice,”his grandson replied.“The steam will go out in the same way if you whisper to her.So why is that?”“Or because I lose my patience when she doesn’t understand my point of view,”the man said unwillingly.“Perhaps,but that is not the real reason why you raise your voice.The real reason is that when you are angry with your wife,your heart moves away from her heart.So even though you are physically（身体上地）close to each other,you feel like you have to shout,”the grandfather replied.“So what should you do to solve this?”the grandfather asked.“When two people are in love,their hearts are close to each other.If you whisper softly,you can both hear each other clearly.This is how you should talk to each other,”the grandfather replied.49.What was wrong with the grandson?A.He had a bad voice.B.He had a hearing problem.C.He wouldn’t talk to his wife.D.He was shouting at his wife.50.Why did the grandson raise his voice,according to the old man?A.He wanted himself to be heard.B.He felt far away from his wife

have advised people not to go trick-or-treating this year.As health experts said,the virus spreads more easily when people have close touch with each other.But this won’t smash the fans’ Halloween spirit.For example,Elizabeth Lusty from London came up with an idea for her two children.She and her neighbors will put boxes of candy on their front yards.Then they’ll plan a safe route so that children can take the candy without coming into touch with others.Andrew Beattie from the US also got creative.He and his 6-year-old daughter made a contact-free candy chute（滑道）.It stretched（延伸）from the family’s front door to the sidewalk.They can send candy down the chute to trick-or-treaters outside.The idea became popular online and many people are doing the same.“This is something that the kids will enjoy and not think of it as ‘I’m doing this to prevent disease’”Beattie told CNN. “They are doing it to have a good time,and we need that now more than ever.”53.This year,many cities have

enjoys copyright protection.A website broke the law because it used the article without permission（允许）.This is the first case in China that has provided（提供）copyright protection to work done by AI.But what does it indicate（表明）?Will AI take the place of creative workers in the future?It may not be true.AI is not yet able to write creative stories.The new report mentioned above is mainly about data.Some newspapers also use AI to report on stories about natural disasters,which mainly use basic facts such as “where”and “when”.As Forbes wrote,some reporters can make their work more efficient（高效的）by using AI so that they can focus more on storytelling and less in numbers.AI is actually being helpful in many creative fields.For example,Wayne McGregor,a British choreographer（编舞者）,is famous for using AI to create new dance.For him,AI is a powerful tool that can help choreographers break out of common movements.McGregor is not worried that AI might replace（取代）human artists. “AI can’t judge（判断）the quality of the choreography,”he said.What else can AI do?AI can learn different music styles by analyzing audio data to create music ranging from pop to jazz and more.By creating starting points and giving suggestions,AI makes design faster.“It’s time to stop worrying about if AI can be creative,”according to Forbes.Instead,we should focus on（专注于）how humans and AI can work together in ways that we have never dreamed of before.57.According to the copyright case related to AI,we know that_______ .A.AI can also break the lawB.News stories cannot be written by AIC.Articles written by AI also have copyright protectionD.AI can use others’ articles without permission58.Which kind of stories might AI be good at writing?A.Sci-fi storiesB.Disaster reportsC.Horror storiesD.Poems59.According Paragraph 4,Wayne McGregor agrees that_______ .A.AI helps him do creative workB.AI can create new dances by itselfC.AI might replace human artistsD.AI can teach people how to dance60.Which of the following might be the writer’s idea?A.Many jobs will disappear because of AI.B.We should make laws for AI.C.AI is difficult to use.D.We should work together with AI.第II卷(主观题共65 分)五、词汇题（本大题共15 分）(A) 根据句意及中文或英文提示写出句中单词。

Telling “white lies” isn’t really that bad. Most of the time, people do it because they want to protect a friendship. A survey (调查) shows that each person lies about seven times a day. The only real questions are about when we lie and who we tell lies to. Here are some reasons why people tell “white lies”.◆Lying to hide something: People often lie because they want to hide something from someone. For example, Paul doesn’t tell his parents that he is going to play basketball because he doesn’t think they will agree. He tells a lie that he’s going to the library to study.◆Lying to make someone feel good: Often we don’t tell the truth to make someone feel good. For example, your friend cooks dinner for you, but it doesn’t taste good. Do you say so? No! You probably say, “Mmm, this is delicious!”◆Giving false (错误) excuses: Sometimes people lie because they don’t want to do something. For example, someone invites you to a party. You think it well be boring, so you say you’re busy.◆Lying to hide bad news: Sometimes we don’t want to tell someone bad news. For example, you have just had a very bad day at work, but you don’t want to talk about it. So if someone asks you about your day, you just say everything was fine.106.
