AThe Hitchhiker’ s Guide to the Galaxy (HG2G) by Douglas AdamsThis is a comedy science-fiction series about a man’s adventures in space. It was initial ly a radio comedy broadcast on BBC Radio 4. It is extremely funny and inventive, and has a very British sense of humor, whose true meanings foreign readers can hardly make out though it has been translated into French and Italian and so on. But when I read it I feel a strong connection to my home. It was published in paperback by Pan Books, after BBC Publishing had turned down the offer of publishing a novelization, an action they later regretted.The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson BurnettHave you ever read a description of a landscape or countryside that made you feel like you were actually there? For me, this book does exactly that. It is about a young girl who is taken to live in a big house in my hometown and discovers a secret garden.Daddy-Long-Legs by Jean WebsterThis book takes the form of a series of letters, and follows the story of a young orphan(孤儿), Judy, as she goes to university and discovers a whole world of new experiences. This book always reminds me of my family, especially my mother, because she used to read it to me when I was ill in bed.The Railway Children by E. NesbitThis was one of my favorite books when I was younger, and for this reason it still strongly reminds me of England and my childhood. It is also set in Yorkshire where I was born and spent my childhood, and follows three children living next to a railway and their adventures.1. What do we know about HG2G?A. It was based on true adventures.B. Its language is abstract and inventive.C. Its humor is hard for foreigners to understand.D. It was adapted for radio after being published.2. Which books are set in the same place?A. Daddy-Long-Legs & HG2G.B. The Secret Garden & The Railway Children.C. The Secret Garden & HG2G.D. Daddy Long Legs & The Railway Children.3. What do all the books have in common?A. They follow children’s adventures.B. They are British countryside series.C. They refer to the author’s childhood.D. They bring memories of home to the author.BJessica Burks’ home is full of opportunities. Pac kaged slime(黏土) in a variety of colors and pleasant smells lines one wall of living room, and, in the designated “slime room” workspace in the back, bottles of fragrance oil are arranged in rows, next to glue and an industrial-size kitchen mixer.But it’s not the amount of slime in Burks’ house that shocks people, she said. It’s that her15-year-old daughter, Samantha Zumwalt, is in charge of their enterprise. The mother-daughter team run Samantha’s Slime Shop at home and the demand for their products helps them earn six figures a year. Samantha’s slime, offered in a rainbow of colors and a range of textures(质地), is in high demand. Since she started her business, she’s made more than 24,000 sales on Etsy. Thecustomers are generally young — between 9 and 12 years old, Burks said, though some adults and teens buy slime, too. Some customers buy Samantha’s slime because they say playing with it is calming. Others want it because it gives them something to do with their hands.Last year, Nichole Jacklyne, a social media blogger, who reviews slime and provides DIY lessons for hundreds of thousands of followers, reviewed Samantha’s product in a video. After Jacklyne’s video, orders poured into Samantha’s shop, Burks said.However, Samantha’s mom was initially resistant to the girl’s slime ambitions. It took months for Samantha to convince her mom to buy the key materials to make slime. “I told her no for months,” Burks said. Finally, Burks gave in. She had been laid off from her job as an accountant, and the two dove into the slime business. Now, Burks is proud of Samantha for running the business so well, “I hope she can meet all of her business goals —whether that’s still running the slime enterprise, or buying another business out, or starting a new business,” she said. “Whatever her dreams are… is where I want her to be.”4. Why does the author specifically describe Jessica Burks’ home in Paragraph 1?A. To stress the amount of slime there.B. To present how special her home is.C. To introduce Samantha’s slime business.D. To show the business opportunities of slime.5. What do we know about Samantha’s slime from the text?A. It only wins popularity with kids.B. All adults buy it just for recreation.C. Social media contributes greatly to its sales.D. It helps Samantha get more followers on the Internet.6. How does Jessica Burks’ attitude to Samantha’s slime business change?A.Worried→Favorable.B. Doubtful→Objective.C. Negative→Cautious.D. Disapproving→Supportive.7. What is the passage mainly about?A. Samantha’s slime business is a success.B. Samantha promotes her slime online.C. Playing with slime puts people at ease.D. Jessica Burks quits to run her slime business.CAs reported in JAMA Surgery, the researchers discovered that e-scooter(电动摩托车) injury rates had increased dramatically in just four years, rising from 6 per 100,000 in the population to 19 per 100,000. Of the estimated 14,651 e-scooter-related injuries in 2018, 4,658, or 32%, involved the head. “While most p eople recover from head injuries, there is going to be a subset with long-term disability and life changes,” said Dr. Benjamin Breyer.Dr. Benjamin Breyer of the University of California, Los Angeles, pointed to a 2019 analysis of the data from two hospitals in Southern California, which found just 4.8% of injured e-scooter riders were wearing helmets.Dr. Joann Elmore, a professor of medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, believed that most e-scooter users are probably unaware of the risks. To make the point, she described a photo taken by a colleague. “There were two riders on an e-scooter,” she said. “No one had shoes on. There were no helmets. And the woman in front had a baby in a baby carrier.”The new report highlights the need for more research on new technologies, said Dr. Guohua Li, a professor of epidemiology(流行病学).“Just as there is a global network of experts working on infectious diseases, there needs to be a similar program devoted to the surveillance(监视,监察) and prevention of injuries caused by merging technologies products and lifestyles, such as e-scooters, e-sports, etc.,” Li said in an email.“The challenge for researchers and policymakers is to keep up with the ever-changing society and protect the public from unnecessary harm caused by new technologies and products without hindering innovation,” he added.8. What can we know from the passage?A. E-scooter injury rates had increased due to speeding.B. 32% of injured e-scooter riders weren’t wearing helmets.C. There is a program devoted to the prevention of injuries caused by advanced technologies.D. Protection and innovation are of equal importance.9. What can we infer from Dr. Joann Elmore’s comments?A. She is an anti-scooter.B. The woman in front was pregnant.C. She is concerned about the e-scooter users.D. Most e-scooter riders often drive at high speed.10. What does the underlined word “hindering” probably mean?A. Preventing.B. Limiting.C. Developing.D. Making progress.11. What’s the author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A. To arouse people’s awareness of the risks and self-protection.B. To introduce a new way of transport — e-scooters.C. To ask people not to ride e-scooters any more.D. To urge policymakers to make laws as soon as possible.DOur ability to collect data gets far ahead of our ability to fully use it, yet data may hold the key to solving some of the biggest global challenges facing us today.Take, for instance, the frequent outbreaks of waterborne diseases as a consequence of war or natural disasters. The most recent example can be found in the country, where roughly 10,000 new suspected cases of cholera(霍乱) are reported each week — and history is filled with similar stories. What if we could better understand the environmental factors that contributed to the disease, predict which communities are at higher risk, and put in place protective measures to stop the spread? Answers to this question and others like it could potentially help us prevent a catastrophe.As a big data scientist, I studied data from wide-ranging, public sources to identify patterns, hoping to predict trends that could be a threat to global security. Various data streams are important because the ground truth data (such as surveys) is often delayed, limited, incorrect or, sometimes, nonexistent.For example, knowing the incidence(发生率) of mosquito-borne disease in communities would help us predict the risk of mosquito-spread disease such as dengue, the leading cause of illness and death in the tropics. However, mosquito data at a global (and even national) level is not accessible.To address this gap, we’re using other sources such as satellite pictures, climate data and population information to forecast the risk of dengue. Specifically, we had success in predicting the spread of dengue in Brazil at the regional, state and city level using these data streams as well as clinical observation data and online searchers that used terms related to the disease. While our predictions aren’t perfect, they show promise.Similarly, to forecast the flu season, we have found that online searches can complement(补充) clinical data. Because the rate of people searching the internet for flu symptoms often increases during their beginning, we can predict a sharp increase in cases where clinical data delays. All of this shows the potential of big data. The information is there; now it’s time to use it.12. What do the examples in paragraphs 2 and 4 show?A. Big data is still hard to get and use.B. People are n’t skilled at dealing with big data.C. Big data is not always an imagined method.D. Catastrophes might be prevented with big data.A.B.is an effective way to collect informationC.is sometimes unreliable and unavailableD.is a timely alternative to multiple data streams14. What does the underlined part “this gap” in paragraph 5 refer to?A.The lack of big data on mosquitoes.B. The lack of different data streams.C. The risk of an outbreak of a disease.D. The ignorance of how a disease spreads.15. What’s the best title of the text?A. How do we collect and use data?B. What are the challenges facing us now?C. How can big data help save the world?D. What is the answer to preventing catastrophes?第一节A篇本文是一篇应用文。

When planning out a landscape photo, consider how the timing will impact the sky.◆____18____Photography rules are sometimes meant to be broken. Sometimes, using the wrong white balance setting creates a more dramatic sky. This is especially true when shooting towards the beginning or end of the day.◆Compose for the sky.___19___ If you are shooting a photo with an average looking sky, try placing the horizon on the upper third of the image, so more of the land is included in the photo. But if the sky is really dramatic, take advantage of that and include more of it in the frame by placing the horizon on the lower third.◆Use a filter (滤镜).___20___ It limits the light coming in for bright scenes or long exposures. Every landscape photographer should have a filter in their camera bag in order to capture more dramatic skies.A. A filter is like sunglasses.B. Try the wrong white balance.C.

She suddenly realized something. She grabbed a handful of fortune cookies that they gave out after every meal, but first she tore open a wrapper and cracked a cookie open for herself. She popped a sweet, crunchy piece in her mouth. Then, she put a handful of cookies into a small tray and left the kitchen. Jenny sighed. Mustering up her courage, she approached the table where the twins and their parents were finishing their meal.She placed the cookies down, and bravely looked the girls in the eyes. “Thank you for coming to our restaurant!” Jenny said with a smile. “Oh, fortune cookies, I love these!”Cried one of the girls, reaching for the tray. The other sister looked at Jennie carefully and her eyes lit up with recognition. Then they introduced themselves to each other. Everyone was very happy and they talked a lot about their school and classmates. Later they made an appointment to hang out together. Jenny tried to downplay the swell of happiness she felt, but she wasn’t succeeding.附:听力原文Text 1W: How was your appointment, dear?M: Well, unfortunately, the doctor thinks I need to start wearing glasses.W: That’s no surprise.

This is Michael Jones here with the 10:00 News Report. Earlier this week, we heard about Milton, the dog that traveled over 3000 miles to reunite with his family. When the Johnson family moved from California to New York, they couldn’t find their dog and they were sad to leave him behind. About a month later, Milton showed up at their doorstep in New York. We cannot believe how far this dog traveled! The family will be doing an interview in the studio tomorrow morning. In other news, there’s been an outbreak of car thefts in Orange County this week.

When we come back from a commercial break, Michelle Smith will be here with the weather report.。
