AMark Twain wrote The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn in 1884. Since then, the book has come out in at least 60 languages. People say that it is the best book ever written by an American writer. American students still read the book. In 1935, Ernest Hemingway wrote, “All modern American literature (文学) comes from o ne book by Mark Twain called ‘Huckleberry Finn’”. There was nothing before and there has been nothing as good since.The writer who became Mark Twain was born Samuel Langhorne Clements in 1835. He grew up in Hannibal, Missouri on the Mississippi River. He once worked as an assistant to a publisher (出版商) and a pilot on a steamboat that sailed on the Mississippi. He heard the riverboat workers call out the words “mark twain”. That was a measure for the depth of water.In 1861, the American Civil War (美国内战) put an end to steamboat traffic on the Mississippi. So Clements travelled west and became a reporter for newspapers in Nevada and California. Later, he wrote funny stories and called himself “Mark Twain”. Twain became famous for his story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County in 1865.Twain also travelled a lot and began writing books about his travels.A trip to Europe and the Middle East was written in The Innocents Abroad. And his stories about life in western United States became the book calledRoughing It.Mark Twain was already a successful writer before he became famous as a public speaker. Over the years, he put a lot of money in unsuccessful businesses. In 1893, he had found himself deeply in debt. To earn money, he travelled around the world giving humorous talks, which made people laugh and remember events they had experienced.However, his later life was not a happy one. Two of his daughters died. His wife died in 1904 after a long sickness. Some critics (批评家) think his later works were more serious because of his sadness. He died of heart failure in 1910.26. According to the text, Mark Twain is most likely not _________.A. a successful writerB. a successful businessmanC. a humorous speakerD. a pioneer of modern American Literature27. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Mark Twain’s real name is Samuel Langhorne Clements.B. He couldn’t work as a pilot on a steamboat because of the civil war.C. He wrote about his travels in some of his books.D. He never changed topics of his writing.28. Which of the following information can not be surely found in the passage?A. The effect of Mark Twain’s works.B. Mark Twain’s birthplace.C. What Mark Twain wrote about in his works.D. The cause of Mark Twain’s death.29. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Mark Twain ---- one of the best American writers.B. Mark Twain and his family.C. How Mark Twain became famous.D. Mark Twain ---- pen name of a famous writer.30. What can be inferred（推断）from the passage?A. Mark Twain was born rich.B. All Mark Twain’s works are popular throughout the world.C. He never paid off his debts.D. Of all Mark Twain’s works, Huckleberry Finn is the best.BAmericans like to visit the national parks. In 1996, over 250,000,000 people visited areas which are managed by the National Park Service. Experts say that by 2020, 500,000,000 people per year will visit the parks. As a result, people are trying to think of ways to protect the parks from the crowds. The crowding of the parks has caused several problems. One is that there is not enough space for all of the people who want to use the parks. To deal with this problem, you may have to book your tickets a few months ahead of time. The Park Service may also raise entrance fees (费) .Another problem caused by increased park use is pollution. Some garbage and waste can be cleaned up, and the cleanup can be paid for by increased entrance fees. To cut down on noise pollution and air pollution, the number of cars allowed in parks may be limited. If this happens, people may use buses to travel around the parks. Officials may also limit the use of jet-skis, snow-mobiles, motor-boats, and sightseeing helicopters and planes.The parks may also be in danger because of development that is going on around them. For example, around Yellow Stone Park, many hotels, golf courses,resorts, and other tourist attractions have been built. Some of these developments have effect on areas that are used by animals. People will have to learn to agree about ways to protect the parks. If they do not, there will soon be no reason to visit these national treasures.31. According to experts, by 2020 the number of visitors ______.A. may be doubledB. may rise to 50%C. will reach 250 millionD. will go up by a second32. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. Visitors will pay less than before.B. The parks are not big enough to hold all visitors.C. Visitors may not necessarily buy tickets ahead of time.D. Only buses are allowed to enter the parks.33. Entrance fees may be increased _______.A. because the National Park Service are short of moneyB. only for the development of the national parksC. to protect the animalsD. mainly to limit the number of visitors34. What is the most possible meaning of th e underlined word “limited” in Paragraph 3?A. Enlarged.B. Admitted.C. Controlled.D. Concerned.35. What can be inferred from the passage?A. High fees may probably keep some people out of parks.B. Helicopters and planes will not be used in parks any longer.C. The bus will become the only tool in parks in order to cut down pollution.D. National Park Service will always welcome as many visitors as possible.第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

You are recommended to spend at least three to five hours on your visit. The closing time varies throughout the year. But the earliest is 3:30 pm. We have a fixed schedule for educational courses, which is from 10:30 am to 2:20 pm.1.How much should a group of 15 Key Stage I students and 4 teachers pay for a 45-minute course?A.35B.46C.57D.812.What should one do in an emergency?A.Check the risk assessment.B.Call 999 immediately.C.Ask adults or teachers for help.D.Seek help from the staff member nearby.3.What is the purpose of the text?A.To introduce Kew Gardens.B.To give tips on visiting Kew Gardens.C.To attract potential visitors to Kew Gardens.D.To inform coming activities in Kew Gardens.BHidden beneath the surface in the roots of Earths astonishing and diverse plant life, there exists a biological superhighway linking together the members of the plant kingdom in what researchers call the "wood wide web".The network is comprised of thin threads of fungus (真菌) that grow outwards underground up to a few meters from its partnering plant, meaning that all of the plant life within a region likely connected to one another. The partnership is beneficial for both parties involved, plants provide carbohydrates (碳水化合物) to the funguses and in exchange, the funguses aid in gathering water and providing nutrients to its partnering plant.A study conducted by Rensen Zeng of theSouthChinaAgriculturalUniversityfound that this also allowed for plants to warn one another of potential harm. The study showed Broad Beans used the fungal network to spy onone another for upcoming danger.Like our Internet, this fungal connectivity is also full of crime. Some plants, such as Golden Marigolds have been found to release poisons into the network to slow down the growth of surrounding plants in the fight for water and light. Other plants, such as the Phantom Orchid, do not have the chlorophyll (叶绿素) and must get the necessary nutrients from surrounding plants.Research suggests that animals such as insects and worms may be able to detect slight exchanges of nutrients through the network, allowing them to more easily find delicious roots to feed on; however, this has not been conclusively made clear in experimentation. The more we learn about this phenomenon, the more our understanding of the plant life of our planet will continue to change. Perhaps one day, we may be able to map out these complex networks entirely.4. What is the function of the first paragraph?A.To explain the aim of the web.B. To introduce the main topic.C. To give definition of diverse life.D. To show the importance of plants.5. The criminal behavior of plants can be seen as a way to________.A. compete for survivalB. gather more waterC. take in sunlightD. break natural rules6. What does the last paragraph suggest?A. Animals can also feed on the fungus.B. Nutrient exchanges are too slight to detect.C. No experiment can prove the phenomenon.D. More needs to be done to work out the network.7. Which can be the best title for the text?A. The Partnership between PlantsB. The Unknown Roots of the EarthC. The Superhighway Linking the PlantsD. The Mysterious Map Changing the WorldCWolves have a certain undeserved reputation: fierce, dangerous, good forhunting down deer and farmers’ livestock. However, wolves have a softer, more social side, one that has been embraced by a heart-warming new initiative.In a bid to save some of Europe’s last wolves, scientists have explored the willingness of these supposedly fierce creatures to help others of their kind. Female wolves, the scientists have discovered, make excellent foster parents to wolf cubs that are not their own. The study, published in Zoo Biology, suggests that captive-bred wolfcubs(幼兽)could be placed with wild wolf families, boosting the wild population.The gray wolf was once the world’s most widely distributed mammal, but it became extinct as a result of widespread habitat destruction and the deliberate killing of wolves suspectedof preying on livestock. Fear and hatred of the wolf have since become culturally rooted, fuelled by myths, fables and stories.In Scandinavia, the gray wolf is endangered, the remaining population found by just five animals. As a result, European wolves are severely inbred and have little geneticvariability（变异性）, making them vulnerable to threats, such as outbreaks of disease that they can’t adapt to quickly. So Inger Scharis and Mats Amundin of Linkoping University, in Sweden, started Europe’s first gray wolf-fostering program. They worked with wolves keptat seven zoos across Scandinavia. Eight wolf cubs between four and six days old were removed from their natural parents and placed with other wolf packs in other zoos. The foster mothers accepted the new cubs placed in their midst.The welfare of the foster cubs and the wolves’ natural behavior were monitored using a system of surveillance cameras. The foster cubs had a similar growth rate as their step siblings in the recipient litter, as well as their biological siblings in the source litter. The foster cubs had a better overall survival rate, with 73% surviving until 33 weeks, than their biological siblings left behind, of which 63% survived. That rate of survival is similar to that seen in wild wolf cubs. Scientists believe that wolves can recognize their young, but this study suggests they can only do so once cubs are somewhere between three to seven weeks of age.If captive-bred cubs can be placed with wild-living families, which already have cubs of a similar age, not only will they have a good chance of survival, but they could help dramatically increase the diversity of the wild population, say the researchers. Just like the wild wolves they would join, these foster cubs would need protection from hunting. Their arrival could help preserve the future of one of nature’s most iconic and polarizing animals.8. What’s the theme of the passage?A. Giving wolf cubs a new lifeB. Foster wolf parents and foster cubsC. The fate of wild wolvesD. Changing diversity of wild wolves9. Which of the following flow chart best demonstrates the relationship between the wolves?A. B.C. D.10. Which of the following statements is true?A. Female wolves are willing to raise wolf cubs of 3 to 7 weeks old.B. Foster cubs are accepted by foster parents and are well bred.C. Man’s hostile attitude towards wolves roots in myths, fables and stories.D. Foster cubs and their biological siblings have similar growth rate and survival rate.11. What’s the purpose of the research?A. To help wolves survive various threatsB. To improve wolves’ habitat and stop deliberate killingC. To save endangered wolves by increasing their populationD. To raise man’s awareness of protecting wolvesDSummer is quickly passing by—but not without the ultimate meteor（流星）shower event!The2021 Perseids Meteor Shower, which is considered to be the best meteor shower of the year, is expected to start lighting up skies on this Wednesday, according to NASA. Known for fireballs, the Perseids typically light up skies on warm summer nights, leaving “long wake（尾迹）of light and color1 behind them.”Under ideal conditions, sky watchers may see approximately 50-100 meteors per hour with each meteor traveling at 37 miles per second. .Because the meteors appear in all parts of the sky, it will be pretty easy to witness the celestial（天上的）event from anywhere in the world. To get the best show, it is advised to view the Perseids from the NorthernHemisphere（半球）during the pre- dawn hours, ideally between 2 a.m. and dawn. In some cases, sky gazers may be able to seemeteors during this shower as early as 9 or 10 p. m.“If it's not cloudy, pick an observing spot away from bright lights, lie on your back, and look up! You don't need any special equipment to view the Perseids—just your eyes,” NASA wrote on their site, adding that telescopes or binoculars are not recommended due to their small fields of view.Remember to let your eyes become adjusted to the dark. Try to stay off of your phone too, as looking at devices with bright screens will negatively affect your night vision and thus reduce the number of meteors you see!For those who may be unable to view the Perseids in person, a live broadcast will be streaming from NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, starting around 8 p. m. on Aug. 11 and continuing through sunrise on Aug. 12.12. What can we learn about the Perseids Meteor Shower?A. It will be the best meteor shower in history.B. The ultimate shower only happens on this Wednesday.C. We can observe 50- 100 meteors per hour in any place.D. The Meteors usually have long and bright trails behind them.13. Which of the following may be the best time to view the shower?A. At 4 a. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.B. At 2 p. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.C. At sunrise on the Southern Hemisphere.D. At dawn on the Southern Hemisphere.14. What can be inferred about the observation of Meteors?A. If you use a telescope, you will see more meteors.B. You can use smartphones to record the grand scene.C. The brighter the moon is, the more meteors you can see. .D. Bright lights will reduce the visibility of meteors.15. If you are not available to watch the Perseids personally, you can ________.A. browse the unofficial website of NASAB. watch a video recorded by a flight centerC. stream a live show on Aug. 11 nightD. use special devices to connect with the shower第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Stanford economist Dr. Thomas Sowell even invented the term "Einstein Syndrome" to describe extremely bright children whose speech is delayed.A Simple CompassWhen Albert Einstein was five years old and sick in bed, his father showed him a simple pocket compass. Einstein was attracted. What force made the little needle point in a single direction？This question stayed with Einstein for many years and has been considered as the beginning of his interest in science.Einstein and the ViolinEinstein's mother, Pauline, was an excellent pianist and wanted her son to love music too, so she started him on violin lessons when he was six years old. Unfortunately, at first, Einstein hated playing the violin. He would much rather build houses of cards, which he was really good at. When Einstein was 13 years old, he suddenly changed his mind about the violin when he heard the music of Mozart. With a new passion for playing, Einstein continued to play the violin until the last few years of his life and Einstein would use the violin to relax when he became stuck in his thinking process.Designed a RefrigeratorTwenty-one years after writing his Special Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein invented a refrigerator that operated on alcohol gas. The refrigerator was patented（获得专利）in 1926 but never went into production because new technology made it unnecessary. Einstein invented the refrigerator because he read about a family poisoned by a sulphur dioxide-emitting（排放二氧化硫的）refrigerator.2.What is the term "Einstein Syndrome" in Paragraph 2 used to describe？______A. Some people who change their mind about learning music.B. Some children who can't speak until they are three years old.C. Some smart children who begin to speak later than normal children.D. Some people who are crazy about the pocket compass and its needle.3.What did Einstein think of playing the violin before he was 13？______A. Boring.B. Interesting.C. Frightening.D. Hateful.4.Which of the following is TRUE about Einstein according to the passage？______A. Einstein benefited a lot from playing the violin.B. Einstein invented the refrigerator out of curiosity.C. Einstein received a compass as a gift for his fifth birthday.D. Einstein suffered from a special illness when he was a child.BPicture a young woman picking flowers from a field to make a natural blush for her cheeks,making a sofa from bamboo,making soy sauce（酱油）from scratch and cooking up all sorts of delicious Chinese food. It may sound unreal, but such a person exists in real life, and her name is Li Ziqi.Her videos cover a wide variety of crafts related to traditional Chinese culture. From making paper and ink to weaving cloth, from making a silk quilt for her grandmother to building her own bread kiln（面包窑）with blocks, nothing seems impossible with Li's crafty hands as they work their magic to bring these things into existence."Watching her videos,it is difficult not to have the sense of longing for home. My heart warmed up as I watched her flip soybeans in the video for making soy sauce. I was really moved. I used to do this kind of work when I was young," comments the Weibo user July of Jiangnan.The success of Li Ziqi and her video lies in her passion-passion for life, for her home and for her culture. She does not say much, but she tells the stories of China's culture."I started it because I wanted to create something for people to watch and relax. We are all under a lot of stress. I hoped that after a long and busy day, they could click on my videos and relieve some of their anxiety and pressure," Li said.But her videos did more than that. Viewers from both home and abroad are attracted. Li now enjoys a fan base of more than 21 million people on Sina Weibo and 7 million strong followers on YouTube. She has made a name for herself in her videos that highlight a traditional Chinese way of life in the rural areas.Li is not without criticism,such as remarks about her "beautifying" life in the country and her use of a professional production team to help her film. Others have expressed skepticism about how "real" her videos are,and how "amazing" it is that she looks so picture perfect after a long day of work in the fields.5.Why was July of Jiangnan moved when watching Li Ziqi's video for making soy sauce？______A. Because he loves soy sauce made by hand.B. Because he was touched by Li Ziqi's creativity.C. Because it taught him how to make soy sauce.D. Because it reminded him of his own experience.6.What was Li Ziqi's original purpose of making videos and posting them online？______A. To make a lot of money.B. To become famous on the internet.C. To help watchers relieve their stress.D. To spread Chinese traditional culture.7.What does the underlined word "skepticism" mean？______A. Doubt.B. Interest.C. Curiosity.D. Concern.8.What can we infer from the passage？______A. Li's crafty hands can do everything.B. Some people don't think highly of Li Ziqi's videos.C. Li Ziqi talks a lot in order to introduce Chinese culture in her videos.D. Li Ziqi's videos focus on the traditional Chinese way of life in the city.CMany of us wonder what lies in outer space. When we look up at the night sky, we see stars, the twinkle of a moving satellite and occasionally a distant planet. But one thing we don't see is the millions of pieces of junk filling up space. It's this debris (废弃物）that's causing problems for the existing technology that's up there and which we rely on.The amount of space junk is increasing. Over the last few decades, satellites and rockets have been launched into space, littering the cosmos as they go. It's estimated there are now millions of thrown-away pieces of metal and other materials in orbit-everything from old rocket pieces to accidentally dropped astronaut tools, and even flecks of paint. The fear is that if we don't start taking this debris out of the sky soon, it will become a great danger to active satellites. Nobu Okada, Chief Executive of Astroscale-a company working on ways to clean up space junk-says hitting "even a small paint fleck…has enough power to blow up other satellites."Several ideas are being looked at to collect the debris floating around in space. In 2018, the Remove Debris spacecraft carried out various experiments, including testing a net that could catch a satellite or firing a harpoon at a target in orbit to try to catch it.This year the UK Space Agency is helping to fund new approaches to tracking satellites and debris in space. Jacob Geer from UKSA told the BBC: "Space surveillance（监视）and tracking is one of the key things we can do to keep safe those satellites we rely on now, and to make surecertain orbits don't become inaccessible（无法接近的）for future generations because there's too much debris in them."It's clear that something must be done to achieve a deep clean in the space. But looking to the future, like any litter problem, we need to look at ways of creating less-and that shouldn't be the stuff of science fiction.9.Which of the following items is space junk？______A. Metal stuff.B. Old rocket pieces in the orbit.C. Tools in the spaceship.D. Paint on a spaceship.10.What problem can space junk cause according to Paragraph 2？______A. Small paint of fleck will blow away satellites.B. Active satellites will be in danger.C. It will be impossible to clean up.D. It will lead to disasters on the earth.11.According to Jacob Geer, what makes orbits inaccessible for future generations？______A. Too much man-made satellites.B. Too much population.C. Too much space activities.D. Too much debris in space orbits.12.Which of the following is not helpful in solving the debris problem? ______A. Stopping reading science fictions.B. Carrying out a thorough space cleaning.C. Creating less space junk from now on.D. Using space surveillance and tracking system.DGood health is a precious thing. When we are healthy, we can learn, work, and support ourselves and our families. When we are sick, we struggle, and our families and communities fall behind.That's why the World Health Organization is needed. Working with 194 Member States, across six regions, and from more than 150 offices, WHO staff are united in a shared commitment to achieve better health for everyone, everywhere.The purpose that all people should enjoy the highest standard of health, regardless of race, religion, political belief, economic or social condition, has guided WHO's work for the past 72 years, since it was first set up as the lead agency for international health in the United Nations, which was founded in 1945.Since 1970，the world has seen a rise in noncommunicable（非传染性的）diseases such as cancer, diabetes（糖尿病）and heart disease. Driven by forces such as rapid unplanned urbanization,globalization of unhealthy lifestyles and population ageing, these diseases now account for 70% of all deaths. So WHO has shifted focus, along with health authorities around the world, to promote healthy eating, physical exercise and regular health checks.The organization has run global health campaigns on the prevention of diabetes and high blood pressure and on healthy cities. It negotiated（谈判）the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control,a powerful tool to help reduce diseases and deaths caused by tobacco. Achieving these goals will require unfailing political and financial commitment,from Member States and donors,and continued and expanded collaboration with colleagues from academia,Partners on the ground,and other members of the UN family.（From the official website of WHO，2020.）13.What is the goal of WHO？______A. To work with more countries.B. To unite everyone in the world.C. To try to make everyone healthy.D. To stop our families falling behind.14.When was WHO most likely to be set up according to the passage？______A. In 1918.B. In 1945.C. In 1948.D. In 1970.15.What has happened in recent decades？______A. The world population has stopped ageing.B. WHO has succeeded in controlling tobacco.C. The people's lifestyles have become healthier.D. The noncommunicable diseases have increased.16.What is the best title of the passage？______A. The Goals of WHOB. A Health OrganizationC. The History of WHOD. An Organization Foundation三、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）How to Develop Your Reading Skills Reading is not just an important professional skill.
