I had just delivered a memorized speech, and I was about to learn how the judges decided my performance. The audience leaned forward and a period of silence fell across the room. I felt the drum rolled in my heart.The third﹣place winner was announced. The name was not mine. Then the second﹣place winner, still not me. At last, the moment of truth came. I was about to either enjoy the warmth of victory or regret the months' preparation. My heart felt closer to the latter. Losing is a part of life, and I have dealt with it on more than one occasion. However, it was an indescribable feeling to drive a 200﹣mile round trip get up very early on a freezing Saturday morning, and yet still finish fourth out of four competitors in my group. After Lincoln lost the 1858 Illinois Senate race, he said, "I felt like the 12﹣year﹣old boy who kicked his toe. I was too big to cry and it hurt too bad to laugh." Oh yeah, I could relate. I had spent many hours in front of a computer and in libraries doing research for the Lincoln Bicentennial Speech Contest. After not placing in the first year of the contest, I really wanted to compete again. Lincoln had many failures, but he never allowed them to defeat his spirit or ambition, so I was not going to give upon a second contest! I reworked my speech for the following year, but again I did not place.I couldn't accept the fact that I failed twice in something that I had worked so hardon, until I thought about my hero. Never mind the lost prize money and praise. Through learning stories about Lincoln, I discovered that I can fail successfully.(1)How did the author feel after finishing his speech?________A ExcitedB RelaxedC NervousD Confident.(2)What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 3?________A He was disappointed with his preparations.B He hurt his toes on the way to the library.C He got up late on the day of the contest.D He was bottom of his group..(3)What made the author decide to enter the second contest?________A The warmth of the victory.B The inspiration from Lincoln.C His eagerness for the prize money.D His desire to show himself on the stage..(4)What can be the best title for the text?________A Learn to fail successfullyB Never mind others' judgmentsC Lincoln﹣myhero D Losing﹣an indescribable feeling.3. Some of the recent scientific studies have found that people who receive higher education live longer than those who do not. According to a new study, reading books extends lifespan(寿命) by up to two years, and the more often you read, the better.Back in 1975, economists concluded that longer lifespan is linked to the wealth of a person, and that wealth itself increases longevity. It seemed self﹣evident: everything people need to be healthy from food to medical care costs money. But soon it was realizedthat the data didn't always fit that theory. Economic success didn't always mean longer lives.In the 1980s, researchers found gaining higher education is connected with a greater increase in lifespan than gains in wealth.One fact is of teachers and college professors: they live longer than the rest of the population. The reason is that they engage in research most of their lives for teaching or publishing, which increases their lifespan and most importantly also ________ their aging process.Let's look at what benefits educated people.Educated people get routinely involved in social networks, they get access to information because of their ability to understand information. They can easily navigate(导航) the health care system; they have more social support.Reading helps us understand how other people think and feel. Reading improves our emotional intelligence. This understanding can improve the quality of a person's life as it would allow the person to act with better judgment and have more insight into the feelings and thought patterns of others. Research has shown that reading changes certain areas of the brain and causes certain other parts to be active. This effect can also be observed in adults who learn to read much later in life. Learning has no age bar. Each and every human is born with the right to be educated. So, don't hold back your urge to learn. The goal of education is to improve intelligence as well as the lifespan.(1)What did researchers find in the 1980s?________A Education does affect peoples lifespan.B Health has nothing to do with wealth.C Economic success always belongs to professors.D Children from poor families can rarely gain higher education..(2)What does the underlined word "retards" in Paragraph 3 mean?________A speeds upB slows downC turns backD contributes to.(3)What is the advantage of educated people according to Paragraph 4?________A They learn more about human body and medical care.B They can set up their own health care system.C They are more connected to the society.D They are skilled in doing research through social networks..(4)What can we know about reading from the last paragraph?________A It is effective against cancer.B It can change a person's lifestylecompletely. C It can help people understand humans brain better. D It is beneficial to peoples EQ and brain health.4. Our body's response is an important part of an emotional reaction to any event. Ifyou've been criticized in public and found your face heated and your heart pounding, you've experienced your body's reaction to shame.Sometimes what you're feeling is clear and consistent with what you're saying. You might say "welcome" as you greet a guest with a smile. But at other times, we mask our emotions from the people around us. There are many reasons to hide how you're feeling. You don't want to ________ in a strict teachers class or you don't want to hurt a friend's feelings. Yousimply want to smooth situations over.Even when you don't communicate your feelings in spoken words, you may still be giving information with your body. Arms across your chest when you approach that new teacher? Looking down when you speak to your friend? These gestures are all important expressions of an emotion. Try understanding what others are communicating with their bodies. Notice things like eye contact, rate of speech and posture. How does their verbal communication match their body language? How about you? Try tuning in to your own body. How do you think others see you? Is that consistent with how you feel? Is it how you want to feel?Body language communication is a two﹣way street. It communicates to others what you are feeling, but it also has a powerful effect on your own emotional state. Changing your body and posture can affect how you feel. Sit up in the meeting and you might find yourself more focused. Take a deep breath and you feel less anxious.The body and your body language is a great field to dig into, especially if hiding how you feel has become habitual for you. Over time, if you become practiced in hiding your feelings, you may begin to hide them from yourself, too. Then the consequence can be losing contact with your own emotions. That's actually harmful to your mental health.(1)What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?________A make troubleB studyC apologizeD go boating.(2)How does the author explain his ideas in the third paragraph?________A By listing data.B By giving examples.C By providing definitions.D By analyzing previous results..(3)The author uses the example of taking a deep breath to show________.A the significance of taking exerciseB the necessity of hiding our feelingsC the effects of body movements on our feelingsD the importance of using postures in communication.(4)What can we infer from the last paragraph?________A We should practice controlling our feelings.B Body language is hard for us to understand.C We may try to record our feelings more often.D Hiding feelingsfor long does harm to our health.第二节(共 5 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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.选项中有两项为多余选项.5. Honesty is a valuable characteristic in a world full of false promises. Today, we re exploring five qualities of honest individuals.They're not concerned about popularity contests.(1)_______Instead, they simply are who they are and other people can take it or leave it. They stand up for theirbeliefs. Honest people don't go looking for fights, but they also aren't afraid to speak their mind.(2)_______While this may annoy managers concerned with bureaucracy(官僚主义),most people will respect honesty and be impressed with those willing to stand out against the group mind.(3)_______Honesty requires thick skin. Not all people love hearing the truth, and when you give out a fresh dose of reality, some might be likely to throw it right back in your face. Honest individuals may fall victim to the insecure defensiveness of others, requiring them to be thick﹣skinned.They have close friendships. Individuals who are honest often have rich, meaningful friendships. Others know that their honest friend won't complain about them behind their back, and will instead face any issues head on.(4)_______They are trusted by peers (同龄人). Individuals will seek the aid of honest peers,knowing they can count on them for true, objective advice. However, others will just lie and tell you the story you want to hear.(5)_______But there are many times that the difficult truth is what individuals really need to hear. Others trust honest individuals to tell them what it really is, without covering the truth.A. They do this to avoid any injured feelings.B. They never try to fight managers' decisions.C. The number of friends they have doesn't matter.D. They are seldom upset or hurt by unpleasantness.E. This level of trust allows for deeper, healthier relationships.F. They will state their opinions even when they are against the majority.G. Honest people don't think about what others think of them all the time.第二部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分 45 分)第一节完形填空(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 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.6.A caring and homeless veteranA simple mistake in a restaurant has changed the life of a caring veteran(老兵).

He shared a story about his work for kindness and joy. In his sharing, I discovered his family and other families had no food since March 23 because of lockdown(禁闭).For one day I was grief-stricken for them. I mean, how could I, in North Carolina, possiblydo anything to help feed a man and 50 people on the other side of the world? After a sleepless night I awoke with clarity to give money to these families. It was not a lot of money, but all that I had and I was determined to find a way to get the funds to Kenya from the US. Luckily, I succeeded in the end. My friend has been able to make the money go far buying corn, oil, fruit, and vegetables to feed 20 adults and 30 children. And now they have food.Each day presents a new problem. Many more people in other countries in Africa have reached out to me asking for help. It is heartbreaking. I cannot help everyone with money but I am determined to help everyone I can with telling their stories through our column Global Storytellers for Kindness on our website. I asked my friend for a list of the children in his family. So now I sit with a list of 30 names, ages, and school years, wondering what on earth we can do for these children. Each night I sleep with a question and hope my dreams will give me guidance during my awake time.Each day is filled with problems and difficulties I could never have imagined, and also thoughts, actions, and ideas that are blossoming to extend love and mercy between many humans.(1)What caused the families from Kenya to suffer starvation?A The large population.B Lack of enough fund.C The lockdown in Kenya.D The poor production of crops.(2)What can we know about the author's help for those families in Kenya?A He raised a large amount of money.B He bought the necessities for them.C He helped them through an organization.D He overcame great trouble helping them.(3)How did the author feel when many people turned to him?A Heartbroken.B Confused.C Delighted.D Content.(4)Which of the following can best describe the author?A He can't have a sound sleep every night.B He is a man full of love andsympathy. C He has funded 30 persons in Africa so far. D He is a man skilled in setting up websites.3. School is, waking up early in the morning, whether it is hot or cold, putting on school uniform and rushing to the bus stop to catch the school bus and getting used to the words “Hurry up! You will be late!” You reach school and again the same words “Hurry up!” do not let you rest in peace.Throughout the day, it is a mad rush. One period gets over, the other starts and you are ready for the second subject. When you forget to do your homework, you try to sit at the back and pretend to be looking for something on the floor or in your bag. You are lucky if you are not seen and it is bad luck if you get caught. If you are not lucky, be ready for a good scolding during break or after school. If you are lucky and your teacher is in a good mood, you may be left with a warning.However, school is not so dull all the time; the games, library period and breaks are a welcome time. When you can relax, joke and have fun with your friends. There are some teachers, too, who can make school very exciting. For example, Mr. Taneja, has a typical style of talking, making us always hooked on the playground.School can be fun, real fun, when picnics and field trips are organized. We wait for them eagerly and keep on requesting our class teacher to organize one for us. Debates, quizzes, cultural programmes also add luster to an otherwise dull school life. Fun increase after real hard work and you tend to enjoy more than those who had been lazy and have wasted their time. I think this period of your life is the most wonderful period-full of dreams and hope. (1)How is the school life described by the author in the passage?A Dull and stressful.B Stressful but interesting.C Strict and fearful.D Annoying but funny.(2)What can we conclude according to the second paragraph?A Some students hope to get away with their fault.B Teachers should be more patient to their students.C Some students dislike finishing their homework.D Teachers should reduce the amount of homework.(3)Which subject does Mr. Taneja teach at school?A Physics.B Language.C Chemistry.D Physical Education.(4)What does the underlined word “luster” mean in th e passage?A Difficulty.B Value.C Pleasure.D Trouble.4. The World Health Organization(WHO)says it is possible to defeat the disease malaria (疟疾),although that is not likely to happen with the current methods.Pedro Alonso, directing the United Nations agency's global malaria program, says the WHO wants to eradicate(根除)the disease but “with the tools we have today, it is most unlikely that the goal will be achieved.”Malaria infected around 219 million people in 2017, when about 435,000 people died from the disease. The large majority were babies and children in the poorest areas of Africa. These totals little changed from 2016.But the numbers are smaller than the 239 million infections and 607,000 deaths reported in 2010.Diallo is head of the RBM Partnership to End Malaria. The group released a statement from him on the WHO report, saying, “Today, there are more countries without malaria than with it, and more countries than ever have fewer than 10,000 malaria cases.”WHO officials have long wanted to destroy malaria. The United Nations agency first attempted a campaign against the disease in 1955.Now, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is providing financial support for the latest efforts.There are a number of drugs available to successfully treat malaria. Sleeping under chemically-treated bed nets has proven to be effective in order to control malaria-carrying mosquitoes and infections. The drug company GSK has also developed a vaccine that has proven partially effective against malaria. The vaccine is currently used in Ghana and Malawi. But the WHO's report says these tools will not be enough to end the threat from malaria altogether. It calls for research and development of“transformative tools and knowledge” to control mosquitoes and create more effective medicines to prevent and treat the disease. (1)How many people suffered from malaria in 2016?A Around 219 million people.B About 435,000 people.C 239 million people or so.D About 607,000 people.(2)What can be inferred from paragraph 3?A Diallo feels worried about how to defeat malaria.B Malaria is a common disease in many countries.C WHO is in great need of financial support nowadaysactually. D Humans have made great achievement in fighting with malaria.(3)What can we know about the vaccine from GSK in the opinion of the WHO?A It can help effectively cure malaria.B It needs to be further developed.C It can kill mosquitoes in a short time.D It almost has no impact on malaria.(4)Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A Possible to Defeat Malaria, But Probably Not SoonB Drug Company GSK Determinesto Defeat Malaria C Malaria Control the Earth Long, But is toDisappear D Transformative Tools and Knowledge on the Way二、七选五5.

But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.Like most people from the West,I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films.Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world.The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S.and elsewhere.However,my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group.Wu-Tang Clan,founded in the early 1990s in New York City,is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.In their songs,they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan—a classic Chinese martial art(武术)from which they take their name—and Shaolin Temple.I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clan—little did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!I myself do not practice kung fu.However,the concepts(理念)behind it are quite interesting to me.There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I’m struggling with challenges in life.“Be formless,shapeless,like water,”he once said.By this,he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties.I think this is a good way to deal with life.24.What does “a silly belief” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.All Chinese people can do kung fu.B.China is most famous for its kung fu.C.Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.D.Many Westerners admire kung fu.25.What inspired the author’s interest in kung fu?A.Hong Kong action movies.B.A TV program about kung fu.C.Kung fu stars in Hollywood.D.A US hip hop group.26.What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?A.They have Chinese culture in their songs.B.They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.C.They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.D.They showed the author the way to live in China.27.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.The author was sorry that he couldn’t do kung fu.B.The concepts of kung fu change over time.C.The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.D.Bruce Lee was the most popular martial arts master.CIn October,I told the eight-year-olds in the class I taught about my plan.“I’d like all of you to do extra jobs around the house to earn some money,”I said.“Then we’ll buy food for a dinner for someone who might not have a nice dinner otherwise.”I hoped th ey could experience a sense of their own power to make a difference.Early in the morning,they arrived in class with their hard-earned money.And now they couldn’t wait to go shopping.At last we headed toward the checkout(收银台),pushing a cart(购物车)filled with food and all the decorations.Then someone spotted(发现)a “necessity”that sent them cheering:a pot of chrysanthemums(菊花).It was more reasonable to use any extra money to buy food.After all,I pronounced,“You can’t eat flowers.”But the children insisted and placed the purple plant into the cart.An agency had given us the name and address of a needy grandmother who had lived alone for years.Soon we were arriving at her house.Between the laughing and those flowers,I wasn’t sure that any lesson about giving and receiving was getting through.We finally pulled up in front of a small house in the woods.A woman with a tired face came to the door to welcome us.As my little group carried the boxes of food in,she oohed and aahed—much to her visitors’pleasure.When Amy put the flowers on the counter,the woman seemed surprised.She was wishing it was a bag of flour,I thought.We returned to the car.As we fastened our seat belts(安全带),we could see the kitchen window.The woman inside waved goodbye,then turned and walked across the room,past the food,straight to the chrysanthemums.She put her face in the plant.When she raised her head,there was a smile on her face.The children were quiet.In that moment,they had seen for themselves the power to make another’s life better.28.The author gave the students the task in order to ________.A.help them focus on their family happinessB.let them experience their ability to help othersC.teach them the necessity of doing houseworkD.get them to know how to be financially independent29.What’s the author’s attitude to buying some flowers at first?A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Cautious.D.Enthusiastic.30.What did the children realize at the end of the visit?A.They could help improve others’life.B.They could make a living by working.C.It was necessary to do voluntary work.D.Plants and birds could help lonely people.31.What is the best title for the text?A.My Teaching CareerB.How to Help Poor PeopleC.The Importance of GivingD.A Happy Shopping ExperienceDWe’ve all e xperienced it. We invite a friend to dinner, only to learn that she is a Vegan. Vegan is someone who allows a diet that contains no animal meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, or any other food that comes from animals. They differ from vegetarians, who generally still eat dairy and eggs as part of their diets. Vegans also typically refuse to use any other products that come from animals, such as honey and leather jackets.Back in 2008, vegans only accounted for(占..比例)around 0.5 percent of the U.S. population, or about one million people. As of a survey taken in 2014, vegans now make up roughly 2.5 percent of the population. At least in the United States, women seem to be far bigger fans of veganism, making up around 79 percent of vegans.People on a vegan diet tend to be leaner. In a study of nearly 40,000 adults, meat eaters had the highest mean body mass index, or BML.Vegetarians were in the middle, and vegans had the lowest. Based on several studies from Finland, some scientists have suggested that vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(类风湿性关节炎). Vegans also appear to have lower rates of hypertension(高血压) than both meat eaters and vegetarians. Vegans also typically have lower cardio metabolic(心脏代谢) risks for conditions like heart disease or strokes.While there certainly may be some health advantages in going vegan, there seems to be some common deficiencies(缺陷)in the diet. One of these deficiencies is with the vitamin B-12. The ADA states that there are no natural plant foods that contain any significant amount of the vitamin. Vegans can still get it, but they need to take a vitamin or consume fortified foods like soy milk and certain breakfast cereals. Omega-3 fatty acids (欧米珈-3脂肪酸) are also very difficult to come by on a vegan diet, but this can be overcome through the consumption of algae(海藻) supplements. With vegans requiring supplementation to meet their nutritional needs, it supports the claim that veganism is unnatural, but that doesn’t necessarily mean its unhealthy.Many health organizations, including the ADA, state that well-planned vegan diets are healthy and nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases.It seems like no matter what your dietary preferences are, a healthy lifestyle can be achieved on or off a vegan diet.32. Which example illustrates he/she is a vegan?A. His/Her diet is made up of large amounts of plant-based carbohydrates.B. He/She eats meat on special occasions, usually pork, as well as small amounts of fish on a weekly basis.C. He/She believes small amounts of animal products are vital to good health, and they insist on eating them every day.D. He/She fries French fries by animal oil.33. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?A. Finland is the leading country in the world to study veganism.B. Vegetarians had the highest mean BMI.C. Vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of cancer.D. The number of vegan in the U.S.is on the rise.34. Vitamin B-12 can be got from ________.A. various vegetablesB. soy milk and cerealsC. waterD. sunbath35. What is the writer's attitude towards going vegan?A. ObjectiveB. SubjectiveC. CriticalD. Disapproval第二节(共5小题;每小題2.5分,満分12.5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。

What is even better is when countries help each other and build a good friendship. An excellent example of this happened when Britain and China worked together to bring the Milu deer back to China.The Milu deer, a species of animal with large horns (角), used to be common in China long ago. Like other deer they lived together and ate grass and the soft parts of trees such as small branches. Milu deer were often killed for food or sport in the past. The Ming and Qing dynasties (朝代) did not protect them and many were killed. That is how the Milu deer disappeared from China.Luckily before all of them were killed, some were taken to Britain to improve the environment of the beautiful park which belonged to the Duke of Bedford. He liked them so much that he took them from China to Britain. Milu deer liked the cool, wet weather in England and their number increased year by year. As a result, when in 1985 the government of China wanted to bring back the Milu deer, the Duke of Bedford was happy to help. The first deer came back to China to the Nanhaizi Milu Park 20 kilometers south of Beijing and the centre in Dafeng, Jiangsu province.The deer certainly seem happy to be back in China because their numbers have grown rapidly. There are now so many of them that a new park has been opened for them in Hubei Province. At the moment the Milu deer live in centres where they are being well protected and cared for. It is hoped that one day there will be enough animals to let them live in the wild again. So Britain helped China by bringing back an animal that had disappeared from its homeland. This is a good example of friendship and understanding between these two countries.5.

I jump from spaceships and as I fall I turn, dive circle and dance until I softly land as close as I can to the finishing line. Robot competitions in the 23rd century are truly a popular sport. Fans from all over China watch their handheld TVs when a competition comes on. Last time I took part in the 78th Olympics on a flying island above Brussels in the sky. I won the silver medal for my performance.This year I had the honour to be chosen again. I wanted to meet robots from other countries and explore ideas about sport. However, my programmer fell ill the week before we were going to leave. It was very painful for her and I felt very frightened.I no longer felt so confident that I would win.The day of the competition was rather cold for my legs and my special oil began to freeze. I paused before I jumped from the starting place on a little spaceship but then I began my performance. At the correct moment I tried to open my parachute but there was a problem. It only opened a little. Instead of flying softly to earth I began to fall faster and faster so that I could not turn, dive, circle or dance. My heart stopped beating as I landed heavily on a mountain covered with snow.This is why I am writing to you from my hospital bed with two broken legs and a fragile (易碎的) head. I did not win anything at the Olympics after all. I need the factory to build me two new legs and an even bigger head. Then I will be able to compete once more. Let’s hope for greater success in the next Olympics!8. What we know about Hua Fei is that he is .A. an experienced expertB. a computer systemC. a flying spaceshipD. a sporting robot9. According to the passage, would be a popular sport in the 23rd century.A. computer gamesB. robot competitionsC. plane controllingD. sky diving10. The reason why Hua Fei failed to perform well this year is that .A. he didn’t do it in the right wayB. he couldn’t open his parachuteC. he didn’t replace the batteriesD. he was affected by a wrong programme11. At the moment, Hua Fei is .A. being treated in a hospitalB. being repaired in a factoryC. being trained for the next OlympicsD. being taught to do high flying exercisesD.Next time you go shopping, keep in mind that there may be hidden cameras analyzing your habits. According to a 2015 survey of 150 managers from Computer Services Corporation, a quarter of British shops use facial recognition software to collect data on shopper behavior.With concerns that face-recognition cameras “are kind of invasive (侵犯的)”, British analysis firm Hoxton Analytics has come up with a new way of measuring footfall (客流量) —by filming people’s shoes. The technology can collect a large amount of personal information. “We have cameras at 50 cm off the ground and they point down so they are less invasive than facial recognition,” Duncan Mann, Hoxton’s officer said.As modern cities get fuller—70 percent of the population will live in urban areas by 2050 —cameras and other technologies are taking over public spaces and collecting our data. Their purpose is to keep people safe, provide efficient services and prevent disasters and crimes.But some are not happy with the cameras as far as their privacy (隐私) is concerned. “Very few of us have any real concept of what data smart cities are gathering,” said Renate Samson.We begin giving away data as soon as we wake up. When we enter the transport system, we are giving away even more details about ourselves through smart cards, mobile phones or credit cards.Nick Millman, director at a consulting firm thinks statistics are the key to the privacy concern. He used the example of Google Maps, which is to monitor the flow of traffic in Stockholm. He explained, “It is basically adding privacy controls to statistics so that you only see the data you need to know about.” In this case, Google gets enough data to improve traffic but not so much that it shows individual journey patterns.12.
