I've been skiing since I was eight or nine years old． I've been on expeditions （探险）in many places like China, Pakistan and so on． But it was in my home country, theUSA, that I came closest to death．It was April, 2011． I was skiing in the Tetons with my friends Jeremy and Xavier． They were both excellent snowboarders． That day, I was the last person to ski． They were watching me from a safe area． Suddenly, I heard someone cry loudly． I turned around and saw the whole mountain start to move behind me． It was a massive avalanche （大雪崩）． The kind of avalanche that destroys trees, cars, buses, even houses! Tens ofthousands of tons of snow was coming straight down the mountain behind me． I felt the snow push me forward, hundreds of metres, and then cover me． It was so heavy that I couldn't breathe． And then it pushed me forward again and up． I looked around, and for a few seconds, I actually stopped being frightened． I had a moment to stop and to look at the power of the avalanche．I looked down into the bottom of the valley （峡谷）． I could see trees that were 30m tall because I was so far away, and ________ looked tiny to me． "OK, I'm going all the way to the bottom!" I thought． Then the snow pushed me again down the mountain another 450m． I thought the force of the snow would destroy me; it was powerful． But in the end． I felt the avalanche slow down and I just fell heavily over the snow at the bottom of the valley．It took Jeremy and Xavier about 20 minutes to reach me． There was a pile of debris （碎雪） across the bottom of the mountain 300m wide． They couldn't believe it when the saw me． I was so lucky．Has the experience changed me? Do I think about life differently? I don'tknow, maybe． But I do know that it's important to live your life with meaning． Life is a gift, so be grateful to God．（1）From the passage， it's true that________．A the writer came closest to death when he skied in PakistanB the avalanche pushed the writer down about 300 m awayC the writer's friends came to learn skiing with the writerD the writer couldn't breathe because of the weight of the snow．（2）Which word can best describe the writer's feeling towards the avalanche？________A ExcitedB ScaredC HappyD Patient．（3）The underlined word "they " in Paragraph 3 refers to________．A the mountainsB the treesC， Jeremy and Xavier D the valleys．（4）In what order did the following events take place in the story？________a． The snow pushed me hard down into the bottom of the valleyb． Jeremy and Xavier were seeing me in a safe placec． I stopped for a while to see the avalanche．d．My friends came to my side．e． I heard a loud voice and saw a huge avalanche coming behind meA b﹣e﹣c﹣a﹣dB b﹣e﹣a﹣c﹣dC d﹣c﹣a﹣b﹣eD d﹣e﹣c﹣a﹣b．（5）According to the writer，________A his experience and his friends have changed himB it's impossible to know the force of the snowC one should not live a meaningless lifeD he doesn't mind the matter of life or death．4. Languages changes all the time． New words and phrases appear and grow． The words and pronunciations used by young people in the UK can be very different from those used by adults．Living in a multi （多元的）﹣cultural society has an effect onlanguage, especially on young people, whose friends are often from a mix of backgrounds． TV and music also influence the language of the young．Young British people use lots of language that you usually can't find in most dictionaries． These very informal（不正规的） words and expressions are known as"slang"． It is not possible to make a complete list of modern British slang． By the time the list was finished, it would be out of date! However, here are a few examples:◆ "Safe", " sorted"; " sound", "cool" and "wicked" all mean "That' s good or "I understand"．◆ "Whatever "means "I don't care"．（e．g． A: But the teacher says we can't leave until we've finished． B: Whatever． I'm going）◆ "He's fine"． And "He's fit " both mean "He's good﹣looking"． Fine and fit can describe a boy or a girl．Not everybody uses slang and not everybody likes it． A school in Sheffield, has recently required its pupils to stop using slang words such as hiya （hello）, cheers and ta（both mean "thank you "）． The head teacher says that if young people learn to speak"correctly", this will help them get a place at university and a good job．So, how important is it to learn these slang words and expressions? If you watch films or TV in English, read magazines in English, chat online in English or are interested in English song lyrics, then understanding slang can be very useful． You probably won't see much slang in your English exam, though．（1）Which is the best word to complete the blank？________Peter： I've just passed my exam!Jenny：________ ! Well done!A CheersB WhateverC HiyaD Cool．（2）Which of the following statements is TRUE？________A Modern slang changes very quicklyB Young people use the same slang as their parentsC "Fit" is only used to describe boysD It's a must to learn some British slang．（3）The example of the school in Sheffield shows that________．A many British schools encourage the use of slangB speaking slang helps young people to get better jobsC children from different cultures feel respectedD slang is not considered as proper English in schools．（4）Understanding slang might not be useful when you________．A watch films and TV in EnglishB read magazines in EnglishC do English exam papersD talk to your British net﹣pal．（5）The author's main purpose is to________A A discuss that slang should be stoppedB explain the best way to learnslang C tell readers about British slang D interest readers with slang words．5.

As I was on the roadside, a homeless man came near to me and 16 money. I let him know I didn’t have any 17 with me. With a quiet smile on his face, he moved on.Just then a friend arrived and called out, “Happy Birthday!” Hearing this, the man turned and asked, “Hey, man, it’s your birthday?” “Yes,” I said.

Happy Birthday!” That’s 20 . I thought he was making a joke!Although I was 21 deeply by his generosity（慷慨）, accepting money from a homeless man was embarrassing for me. I felt very uncomfortable. So I replied, “Thanks, but…” Looking directly into my eyes, he said, “God is so good to me. Every night, I always end up with a place to 22 and enough food to eat. Please take this.” I held out my 23 —without thinking twice, saying, “Thank you.”This was one of my 24 life lessons—however poor we may feel, we always have something valuable to share with others.

He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe first, and then the Middle East, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and finally the Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food, water and medicine. No doctor.Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way across deserts, through jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he was chased by armed robbers and was lucky to get away with the little money he had.The worst thing that had happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1, 000 kilometers he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him. This part of the trip was slow, hard and depressing, but he made it in the end. Now Mr. White is back and wants to write a book about his adventures.3A.broken the world recordB.destroyed several bikesC.collected money for OxfamD.become the fastest cyclistWhen Phil White returned from his trip, he had .（1）A.Very slow but exciting.

B.He has a strong will.C.He loves his country.D.He is fond of travelling.Which of the following can best describe Phil White?（5）What makes you who you are as a person? You probably have some ideas of your own personality. Are you similar to Martin Luther King or Albert Einstein? Read about these types and find out.The DreamerA dreamer thinks there is a "right" way to do things. This person wants to live in the "perfect world". A dreamer is often hard-working and organized. Many are good listeners and like to help others. Many dreamers work as teachers, lawyers, and in leadership roles.Famous dreamers : Mohandas Gandhi,Martin King Jr.The PartnersA partner wants to be in a group. For this person,group harmony is important. And rules can help us live in harmony because they can keep everything in good order and help the members avoid arguing.Partners are often serious, careful people. Many do well as teachers, managers, police officers, and politicians.Famous partners : Mother Teresa, Queen Elizabeth ⅡThe thinkerFor thinkers, understanding things is very important. They like to solve problems and make new things. Thinkers can also be competitive. They like to win. They are independent and often have very strong opinions.Manythinkersworkas scientists, inventors, politicians, and The ArtistArtists want to be free. They don't want to follow the rules all the time. Artists like action and are often impulsive （冲动的）. They also like trying new things. Like thinkers, many artists have strong opinions. Many artists are creative and do well as musicians, actors, fashion designers, and athletes.The motto of artists might be"Variety is the spice of4engineers.Famous thinkers : Bill Gateslife."Famous artists :Russell Crowe, MadommaA.Mother TeresaB.Queen Elizabeth ⅡC.Bill GatesD.Barack ObamaThe following people are very serious and like to follow rules in a group Except .（1）A.a scientistB.a lawyerC.an inventorD.a musicianIf you want to live in the "perfect world", you may do well as .（2）A.the dreamerB.the partnerC.the thinkerD.the artistEinstein is probably an example of .（3）A.B.C.D.Which of the following in NOT true about artists?They don't like to follow the rules all the time.They are usually careful and organized.They like action and are often impulsive.They like trying new things and have strong opinions.（4）A.different jobsB.famous peopleC.similar groupsD.personality typesThe passage mainly talks about .（5）AnimalsCorona viruses are common in animals. Sometimes, animals get infected （感染的） with these viruses which may then spread to human beings. To protect yourself, you should not visit live animal markets or have direct contact with wild animals. Stay away from raw meat, animal organs and other undercooked animal products.When an infectious pet was found in Hong Kong, some may wonder if one can get virus from their pets. Until today, there is no evidence that a dog, cat or any pet can transmit （传播）COVID-19. Please do not kill or give up pets!Touching surface with virusStudies suggest that COVID-19 virus may stay on surfaces for a few hours or up to several days. However, the number may change under different conditions such as type of surface,temperature or the environment.If you think a surface may be infected, clean it with ethyl alcohol （酒 精）. After touching it,clean your hands with alcohol or wash them withsoap and water. Avoid touching your eyes,mouth, or nose.Package （包裹）Before delivering to your home, a package has been moved, travelled, and exposed to different conditions and temperature. Therefore, the possibility of being infectious because of your package from COVID-19-reported areas is rather low. There is no need to send your5package back.SmokingAn article posted on Wechat recently says that cigarette can protect smokers from COVID-19 and thus make cigarettes sell very well. It is an online rumor （谣言）! As has been known,smoking harms people's health. It weakens the immune system and worsens diabetes and blood pressure. No smoking is still a must!TransportationAccording to Feng Luzhao, an expert from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the major routes of transmission are still through respiratory droplets and direct contact. In order to protect yourself in underground station, wearing a mask and keeping your hands clean are good ways. People are also encouraged to use a personal transportation card or pay for the ticket via an app. After taking public transportation, washing hands is necessary.A.Visiting a zoo. B.Eating raw food.C.Playing with your pet.D.Buying food from a live animal market.Among the following actions, which will most probably cause infection?（1）A.B.C.D.From the passage, we can know that .a smoker will not get the virus we can touch surface with viruswe should pay for the subway ticket via an app animals will certainly transmit COVID-19 virus （2）A.B.C.D.What is themain idea of Part 4 of the passage?Smoking market is getting better and better because of the virus.We should not smoke because of the virus.Smoking is still harmful to our health.An online rumor becomes a fact.（3）A.Wearing a mask outside home. ing personal transportation card.C.Protecting your pets. D.Sending your packages back.Which of the following is Not considered as a good way to fight against virus in thisarticle?（4）A.A medical guidebook. B.Your biology book.C.A fashion magazine.D.A fiction.Where can you read this article?（5）America is a mobile society. Friendship between Americans can be close and real, yet disappears soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while, then no more, If the6same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship.This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendship between us flows more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending （延伸）sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality （好客）easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time . Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. Americans, however, express their welcome at home. But they truly cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves to be treated hospitably.For Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!A.an AmericanB.a ChineseC.a college studentD.a travellerThe writer of this passagemust be .（1）A.B.C.D.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?Americans like to show their politeness even though it requires a lot of time.Americans like to meet their friends at the airport in the middle of the night.Americans like to phone and pick up their friends from the hotel.Americans like to express their hospitality at their homes.（2）A.B.C.D.What are the two difficult points for the Chinese to understand friendship in the USA?Friendship in the USA is changeable and Americans aren't generous with their time.Friendship in the USA is lifelong and Americans are generous with their time.Friendship in the USA is mobile and Americans are generous with their time.Friendship in the USA is lifelong and Americans aren't generous with their time.（3）A.are strict with time B.don't take time seriouslyC.don't know how to use timeD.are willing to spend time for friendsFrom the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4, we can know the Chinese people .（4）A.B.What's the passage mainly about?Americans' views on friendship.Chinese people's views on friendship.（5）C.D.American and Chinese people's views on friendship.Different views on friendship in the world.（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）A.B.C.D.E.Schools in the UK are quite different from those in China. In the UK, at the beginning of the term, students must select their courses and teachers first.1 So in the first term, don't select too many courses, or you'll feel nervous and it may influence your study. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks.2 Different teachers have different teaching methods.If the teacher is called "killer" by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him,because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, give too many exams and too low grades.3 How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in the UK are very expensive. Each copy is about ＄30-50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks. 4In class, discussing is very important. The teachers always encourage you to ask questions or show your own opinions freely. They don't usually ask you to sit well. 5 They usually don't give you much homework to do. So in the schools in the UK you can learn knowledge and do exercises by yourself. You must do almost all things independently.And some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library.At the same time, you must select the teachers.Selecting is very important for your grades in the UK.Instead, they allow you to sit or stand everywhere you like.There is another thing after you select the courses and the teachers.7（本大题共6小题，每小题1分，共6分）COVID-19 is horrible.

(A)I never saw my father home from work late or ill, nor did I ever see my father take a “night out with the boys”. He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.For 22 years since I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am. He was always interested in my life — how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida.Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked was a glass of iced tea, and that I could hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father.Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I could get him a glass of iced tea and talk to him. But again, I had laundry to do and the house to clean.The morning on Sunday, January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual. This time it seemed that he had forgotten what we had discussed the week before. As I had to get to church, I cut the conversation short.The call came at 4:40 am. That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida. I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed (发誓) that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really?get to know him. I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am the next day, but my father had died at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me.In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father, and even more about myself. As a father, he never asked me for anything but my time. Now he has all my attention, every single day.26. We know from the passage that the father __________.A.?liked to paint housesB.?had no friends around himC.?was not healthy in his youthD.?thought of his family as his all27. When her father painted her first house, the daughter __________.A.?could only afford a glass of iced teaB.?was too busy to talk to her fatherC.?could do nothing but hold a paintbrushD.?spent eight hours a day working with her father28.On January 16, 1996, the daughter felt that her father __________.A.?seemed to be a little differentB.?had no time to phone her as usualC.?became interested in churchD.?had forgotten to discuss with her29.

What is life really like in space? And what do astronauts do there?Astronauts living in space have the same hygiene needs as people do on Earth. When they wake up, they wash their hair, brush their teeth and go to the bathroom as well. However, because of micro-gravity (微重力), astronauts take care of themselves in different ways. For example, they use a kind of special matter to wash their hair and leg restraints (固定装置) to position themselves when they use the toilet.Astronauts eat three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some food can be eaten in the natural form such as fruit. Other foods require adding water such as noodles. There are no fridges in space, so space food must be stored and prepared properly to avoid going bad.Besides morning routine and eating in space, astronauts perform many tasks including checking the machines, updating computer equipment(设备), etc. At the same time, the control center on Earth sends messages to the astronauts through voice or emails with new instructions to assist them in their daily routines.What’s more, living in space is not just all work and no play.
