S. theaters and HBO Max on Dec.25,nine days after it starts appearing at cinemas in international markets, Warner Bros.,said in a statement Wednesday. HBO Max subscribers will have a month to see the movie at no additional cost.The film's director, Patty Jenkins, confirmed the move earlier in a tweet, saying that fans should see the movie in theaters if it's safe to do so-otherwise, they can enjoy it at home. Releasing a would-be hit like Wonder Woman 1984 to home and theater audiences meanwhile would have been unthinkable earlier this year, and for decades before that. However, the pandemic has made it impossible for studios to generate the kind of returns at the box office they need to recover their investments in big films. Cinemas in two of the biggest moviegoing markets in the US-Los Angeles and New York City-are closed entirely.Against this background, several major movies from other studios were shown online this year, including Walt Disney Co.'s Mulan. The studios have been typically charging about $20 to see those films at home. Wonder Woman 1984 won't have an extra fee, but it will require fans to sign up for HBO Max, which costs $15 a month.Under any other set of circumstances, a move like this would be decried by theater owners, whohave long enjoyed the right to exclusively show new hit films for two or three months. However, they've been struck by the effects of the coronavirus. Most cinemas have been closed for portions of 2020 and those that have reopened don't have many new movies to show. Most big films have been delayed until 2021.4.What makes the movie Wonder Woman 1984 different from other movies released thisyear?______A. The approach of releasing.B. The time it will be on show.C. High expectation from audience.D. The theaters where it will be released.5.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?______A. The tough challenges studios have to face.B. Ways for film industry to recover from the pandemic.C. The influence the pandemic has had on film industry.D. The possible success of the movie Wonder Woman 1984.6.What does the underlined word " decried" in Paragraph 6 probably mean?______A. Appreciated.B. Accused.C. Valued.D. Commented.7.Where does this text probably come from______A. A news report.B. A film review.C. A movie advertisement.D. A hit fiction.CDuring the "golden week" national holiday that began on October 1st,hundreds of thousands of sightseers flocked to Lijiang,a picturesque historic town in the south-western province of Yunnan. Among its attractions are the symbols printed beneath the Chinese characters on road signs and shop fronts(Starbucks included). They are Dongba pictographs,an ancient form of script(文字)that originated among the Naxi,a local ethnic group. It almost died until about a decade ago,when local officials began to realize its value and covered the town with it. Dongba was never widely used by the Naxi,of whom there are about 300,000 living in the Himalayan foothills near Lijiang, as well as in Tibet and Sichuan province. The pictographs,which evolved as early as the seventh century,were developed by shamans (巫师)of the Dongba faith, which has roots in Tibet.Over 20,000 of these religious records survive. They provide rich insight into how Naxi peoplethought about war,geography,astronomy and agriculture. But they are extremely hard to read. Linguists are helped by the area's Dongba priests(神职人员). There are about 600,most of them very old,including Yang Guoxing, who ran a school from 2010 to 2015 to teach Dongba to children living in the mountains. When Mr Yang was growing up, "everyone was too busy farming" to learn it. Now they are all busy soaking up the pop culture, he says.Signs at bus stations in rural Yunnan encourage locals to use written and spoken Chinese. But the Naxi get off lightly compared with other ethnic minorities. Primary schools in Lijiang teach the Dongba script twice a week, as well as Naxi nursery rhymes. Li Dejing, head of the Dongba Culture Research Institute,says this is not just about keeping alive the pictographs, but letting children grasp "the very spirit of their own culture". And this will also help tourism to develop in Lijiang.8.What do we know about the Dongba script?______A. It is widely used by local people.B. It was a tool used by certain people.C. It was quite popular at certain periods.D. It has a history of more than 3000 years.9.According to Yang Guoxing, what makes it difficult to spread the Dongba script______A. Only priests can read it.B. It's extremely hard to read.C. Its value hasn't been fully recognized.D. People are too busy to learn a new language.10.What has been done to keep the Dongba script alive?______A. New schools are opened to teach it.B. Some tourists are invited to preserve it.C. Only the Dongba script can be used in schools.D. People are more exposed to this language than before.11.What is the best title of the text______A. The Dongba Script Is DyingB. The History of the Dongba ScriptC. The Dongba Script Survives in LijiangD. The Influence of the Dongba ScriptDBig, old trees are dying faster than in the past, leaving younger, less biodiverse forests that store less carbon worldwide. They give us paper and fuel, as well as vital ecological services-like cleaning the air, storing carbon and providing habitat. We're talking about trees, of course. But human changes to the environment appear to be causing profound changes to trees around the world.In a new study, scientists reviewed global research on trends in tree seedlings growth and death. They combined those data with an analysis of deforestation. And they found that worldwide, older trees are dying at a higher rate than in the past due to factors like rising air temperature, wildfires, drought and pathogens(病原菌)."And most of the drivers of that decrease in large, old trees are increasing themselves, such as temperature is going up, droughts are more severe, wildfires, windstorms and deforestation are all on the increase-although variable across the globe-they're generally increasing. And so for both the loss has already occurred, but we expect more continued loss of big, old trees." said Nate McDowell, an earth scientist at Pacific Northwest National Lab, who was one of the study's authors."So if we have an increasing rate of death, particularly of the larger, older trees, what's left are the younger trees. So that's why, on average, through the loss of bigger, older trees, our forests are becoming inherently(天生地)younger and shorter."This trend is a problem, because old trees are vitally important."For sure,the increase in death does limit the carbon storage of an ecosystem and can force the system to become a carbon source to the atmosphere. The second reason we care is from a biodiversity perspective:old trees tend to house a higher biodiversity than young forests do. And the third reason is aesthetic:as a society, we care about these trees. We have national parks named after these big trees. So there's a personal reason for people to care about this as well."12.What has the new study found about the forests?______A. Forests are getting younger and shorter.B. Many factors cause the death of big old trees.C. Old trees are beneficial to humans in many ways.D. The death of big old trees influences biodiversity.13.What do the underlined words " the drivers" in Paragraph 3 refer to______A. The death rates of big old trees.B. The trends in the death of big old trees.C. The human changes to the environment.D. The factors causing high death rate of old trees.14.How is the significance of big old trees illustrated?______A. By giving examples.B. By analyzing reasons.C. By listing facts.D. By providing figures.15.What's the purpose of the text______A. To call on people to protect old trees.B. To illustrate a phenomenon about old trees.C. To share the findings of a new study about trees.D. To analyze the reasons why some trees are dying faster.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Do you invest too much value into words added by strangers?No matter what you do or say,or how you act,people will always give their opinions about you.(1)______ Otherwise,you'll allow others' opinions to not only hurt you,but often define you. Here are ways to stop caring about what other people think of you.Keep in mind not everyone cares. Everyone is troubled by anxiety, and they might be too busy to immediately recognize yours. (2)______ They're always too busy thinking about their families, work, and whatever else to form a detailed opinion about you.Think about who you want to be.

In life,some people will like you and others might not.(4)______ But most of the time, that's their mindset only, which has nothing to do with you. There will be people who will accept all of you and people who will be supportive and kind. These are the people who deserve to walk with you.(5)______ You may worry about ending up looking like a fool because of a mistake, but mistakes are unavoidable. When you overcome your fear of making mistakes and build resilience to the pain that may come from failure, you will be unstoppable. One way to deal with anxieties about messing up is to make a list of all the possible things that could go wrong.A. Take on the challenges.B. Don't let them get to you.C.

Burton Chace Park.BOn the night of August 24, 2001, my last night of freedom before my freshman of high school started, everything changed when my friend's car hit a guardrail(护栏) with me inside.I lost most of my right leg. At the hospital, I just kept telling myself to hold on. Weeks later I made a deal with the hospital staff that once I could roll onto my side, I could be discharged. I am proud to say that just one short week later, I was going home. The day I left the hospital, I made a promise to myself to never give up and to always live life to the fullest.In February of 2013, my life was forever changed when I attended the Executive Assistant Organization's Behind Every Leader event. During the conference, a sweet lady by the name of Alisson Frew dared to ask me why I did not wear a prosthesis(假肢). My short and simple answer was, "I don't have sixty thousand dollars." The next morning I was in tears as I learned that Alisson, Jeff Hoffman, founder of Priceline, and a dozen other people, had bought a prosthesis for me. From the first step, it was apparent to me just how much this would mean to me.For a year I adjusted to the leg and settled into everyday life,until one day I realized I was making a life but not living one.After almost 13 years of thinking that I was confident, I had an unfamiliar feeling sweep over me. For the first time in my life, I was not only confident but I was empowered! I desired to help those around me, to have them experience this unbelievable feeling for themselves.In April of 2014, I started modeling. My dream is that one day a little girl will see me on a poster at her favourite clothing store and say, "Wow, she is amazing, and she only has one leg. I could do that too someday, even though I have a disability."4. What do we know about the author from Paragraph 2?A.She was humorous and outgoing.B.She was determined and optimistic.C.She was intelligent and hardworking.D.She was generous and kind-hearted.5. Why was the author's life changed forever in 2013?A.She attended an important conference.B.She met some famous people.C.She joined an organization.D.She got a precious gift.6. How will the author help those around her?A.By inspiring them.B.By entertaining them.C.By doing voluntary work.D.By offering financial support.7. What would be the best title for the text?A.An Expensive Gift from StrangersB.How I Survived A Terrible AccidentC.I Lost a Leg but Gained a PurposeD.Stay Strong in the Face of DisabilityCA Japanese company, NextTechnology, has created a robot dog that can tell you how bad your feet smell, by using a powerful sensor fixed in its nose. If your feet don't have a bad smell, Hana-chan will happily wag its tail, if it's exposed to feet that aremildly smelly, it'll start to bark, and if they give off an extremely bad smell, it'll just fall over like the smell caused it to faint (昏倒). Foot odor (脚臭) is a big deal in Japan, where it's customary for people to take off their shoes whenever they enter someone's home. In fact, exposing others to bodily odors can be considered annoyance in Japan. Some of the most brilliant minds in the country's tech industry have been trying to solve this problem. Last year, Thanko started selling armpit (腋窝) fans designed to keep people's armpits nice and dry. Now, we have Hana-chan.The robot dog has a special sensor for a nose, and can tell you if your feet smell just by sniffing them for a few seconds. According to some media reports, Hana-chan can help solve the problem of extremely smelly feet by spraying them with air freshener, but it's unclear whether this feature comes built-in, or if you'll have to pay extra for it.According to researchers at NextTechnology, the idea forHana-chan was inspired by a person who desperately wanted some way to know if his feet smelled. He told us his daughter had said his feet were smelly," NextTechnology's Kimika Tsuji said. "But he didn't want to know how bad the odor was because he would feel hurt. That's why we developed this cute robot."You may be able to make Hana-chan faint with your smelly feet, but it can have the same effect on budget-conscious people. Next-Technology plans to start selling the feet-smelling robot dog next May.8. Under what condition will Hana-chan bark?A. When its nose is fixed with a sensor.B. When it detects mildly smelly feet.C. When it wags its tail.D. When something is wrong with its nose.9. Why is foot odor paid great attention to in Japan?A. Because Japanese have strong bodily odors.B. Because its tech industry is highly developed.C. Because Japanese are especially considerate of others.D. Because Japanese are usually barefooted at others' home.10.What can be inferred about Hana-chan from the text?A. Its idea comes from Kimika Tsuji.B. It's already available in the market.C. It can recognize foot odor quickly.D. It has a built-in air freshener sprayer.11. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph imply?A. Hana-chan is no cheap thing.B. People should mind their smelly feet.C. People should be careful about their budget.D. Hana-chan makes people loosen their budget.DTo the untrained eye, handwriting styles may seem random. Some write big; others prefer small; and still others tend toward the unreadable. But a new study shows that your handwriting actually says more about you than you thought.Professor Sarah Rosenblum has been studying cognitive(认知) theory as it relates to handwriting for years. Researchers have already developed a computerized system that measures and analyzes even the smallest details of a person's handwriting, such as the space between the letters and the amount of pressure we apply when writing. Using this system, she discovered changes inhandwriting can indicate when we are lying and even whether someone is in the early stages of Parkinson's disease.Now, Rosenblum, with other researchers, is examining whether changes in handwriting can be used to identify moods (情绪). Researchers broke up study participants into three groups. Each group underwent an activity that put the participants in a different mood—positive, passive, and neutral(中立的), by viewing appropriate movies. After that, the participants were instructed to write a paragraph.After studying the participants' paragraphs, the different moods of each group were evident in characteristics like letter shape and size. For example, the height of the letters written by people in a negative(消极的) mood was significantly lower than that of the positive or neutral groups. Also, participants in a negative mood showed quicker writing and narrower width of letters than those in a positive mood.But why? The researchers explain that it is probably the negative mood that creates a cognitive burden on the brain, leading in turn to changes in handwriting."The findings of the study may help doctors identify their patient's actual mood," Rosenblum said. "In the future, we will try to examine whether we can also measure the level of the mood, i. e. how happy or sad someone is."So watch out: if you're happy, you know it. Your handwriting will, too.12. What can be learned through a person's handwriting?A. The pressure he is facing.B. The lies he is telling.C. The language he is speaking.D. A certain disease he might have.13. How were participants put into different moods during the study?A. By reading moving stories.B. By writing a paragraph.C. By watching certain films.D. By listening to programmes.14. What indicates a person is very happy?A. He writes small letters.B. He writes wide letters.C. He writes casually.D. He writes short letters.15. What is Rosenblum studying?A. How handwriting affects a person's mood.B. How mood is classified by types of handwriting.C. How a person's mood is reflected in handwriting.D. How doctors use handwriting to understand patients' mood.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。

Participating in such events is a great way to learn about school facilities and understand campus culture:What do students do for fun?What are their favorite classes?What is thehistory of your university It can help you observe campus life outside the classroom. Exploring CampusGetting to know where essential campus resources are-such as the student advising center,psychological services,and the tutoring center-will make your first few weeks on campus a lot easier,because you won't have to look for them while still getting used to your classes.Take some time to check out the buildings where your classes will be held.This will prevent you from getting lost in the first few days of classes,and familiarize you with how long it takes to get from place to place.If you're worried about taking classes one after another in different buildings,a quick test run won't hurt.That way,you will avoid potential time delays in getting to your classes.Starting a RoutineBefore getting too excited about all of the fun things you will be able to do during the week,remember that you do have a pretty big schedule change coming up.Starting classes means being in different places at different times,so it's a great idea to start getting used to that routine right this week.What helps you most is to schedule your sleep.Following the planned time will ensure you have enough sleep to get to those early classes and stay wide awake.If you have other daily routines,such as exercising or talking on the phone with family,work those into your day-to-day life before classes start so that you get a better idea of how they fit in with your schedule.16.By participating in campus welcome activities,freshmen can ______ .A. learn about campus cultureB. get their course scheduleC. have a physical examinationD. take an entrance test17.Why are freshmen advised to have a quick test run between buildings?______A. To see how many facilities they can use.B. To avoid being late for future classes.C. To help those getting lost on campus.D. To practice running on their way to class.18.When is it best for freshmen to start getting used to the new routine?______A. On the first day of their classes.B. Before the orientation week.C. After their first-day classes.D. During the orientation week.19.What does the author suggest freshmen do to stay focused in class?______A. Take physical exercise before class.B. Leave their phones powered off.C. Take early classes every day.D. Keep to the sleep schedule.20.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage______A. To offer some tips on making an easier start at college.B. To remind freshmen about the first day of school.C. To help freshmen organize campus activities.D. To share his college experience with the reader.BWhen people ask me how I started writing,I find myself describing an urgent need that I felt to work with language.Having said that,I did not know for a long time what I was looking for.It was not until I followed this feeling to its source that I discovered I had a passion for writing.With some encouragement from my colleagues,I had one of my poems published.This bit of success,however,was the point where my problem began.Back in 1978,I had to travel between three different campuses in the morning,teaching freshman composition.Afternoons I spent taking my daughter to her ballet and horse-riding lessons.I composed my lectures on the way,and that was all the thinking time I had.When I returned home,there was not enough of me left for writing after a full working day.As a way out,I decided to get up two hours before my usual time.My alarm was set for 5:00 A.M.The first day I shut it off because I had placed it within arm's reach.The second day I set two clocks,one on my night table,and one out in the hallway.I had to jump out of bed and run to silence it before my family was awoken.This was when my morning writing began.Since that first morning in 1978,I have been following the habit to this day,not making or accepting many excuses for not writing.I wrote my poems in this manner for nearly ten years before my first book was published.When I decided to write a novel,I divided my two hours:the first for poetry,the second for fiction.Well or badly,I wrote at least two pages a day.This is how my novel,The Line of the Sun.was finished.If I had waited to have the time,I would still be waiting to write my novel.What I got out of getting up in the dark to work is the feeling that I am in control.For many people,the initial sense of urgency to create easily dies away because it requires making the tough decision:taking the time to create,stealing it from yourself if ifs the only way.21.What motivated the author to start her writing career?______A. Her strong wish to share.B. Her keen interest in writing.C. Her urgent need to make a living.D. Her passionate desire for fame.22.What problem did the author face when she decided to begin her writing______A. She was too exhausted to write after a busy day.B. She had trouble in deciding on her writing style.C. She had to take time to discipline her daughter.D. She was unsure about her writing skills.23.Why did the author place an alarm clock in the hallway?______A. In case the clock in her room broke down.B. In case she failed to hear the ringing.C. To force herself out of bed.D. To wake up her family.24.How did the author manage to finish her novel______A. By sticking to writing every morning.B. By writing when her mind was most active.C. By drawing inspirations from classic novels.D. By reducing her teaching hours at school.25.What can we learn from the author's success in her writing career?______A. It is never too late to change your job.B. Imaginative ideas die away if not taken in time.C. A tight schedule is no excuse for lack of action.D. Daily life provides ideas for creative writing.CIn the fictional worlds of film and TV,artificial intelligence(AI)has been described as so advanced that it is indistinguishable from humans.But what if we're actually getting closer to a world where AI is capable of thinking and feelingTech company UneeQ is heading for its "digital humans",which appear life like on the screen not only in terms of language,but also because of facial movements:raised eyebrows,a smile,even a nod.They look close to a human,but not quite.What lies beneath UneeQ's digital humans?Their 3 D faces are modeled on actual human features.Speech recognition enables them to understand what a person is saying,and natural language processing is used to work out a response.Meanwhile,another AI company,Soul Machines,is taking a more biological approach,with a "digital brain",that imitates aspects of the human brain to adjust the emotions "felt" and "expressed" by its "digital people". Shiwali Mohan,an AI scientist at the Palo Research Center,is skeptical of these digital beings. "They're humanlike in their looks and the way they sound,but that in itself is not being human," she says. "Human qualities also involve how you think,how you approach problems,and how you break them down;and that takes a lot of algorithmic (算法)design.Designing for human-level intelligence is a different attempt than designing images that behave like humans." She then continues,"If something looks like a human,we have high expectations of them,but they might behave differently in ways that humans just instinctively (直觉地)know how other humans react."Yet the demand is there,with UneeQ seeing high adoption of its digital employees across the financial,health care,and commercial sectors (行业). "Unless these sectors make their business models much more efficient digitally,they might be left behind," says Chetan Dube,UneeQ's CEO.Some other companies are taking their digital beings a step further,enabling organizations and individuals to create digital humans themselves using free-access platforms they provide. "The biggest motivation for such platforms is to popularize AI," Dube says.Mohan is cautious about this approach,yet she supports the purpose behind these digital beings and is optimistic about where they are headed. "As we develop more advanced AI technology,we would then have to use new ways of communicating with that technology," she says. "Hopefully,all of that is designed to support humans in their goals."26.According to Para.2,in what respect(s)do UneeQ's "digital humans" resemble humanbeings______A. In the way they move around.B. In the way they act and react.C. In observation and analysis.D. In speech and facial expressions.27.Soul Machines' digital brain is a technological breakthrough because it ______ .A. learns to make proper emotional responsesB. tends to imitate human beings' tone vividlyC. recognizes the speech sounds it receivesD. processes the natural language it hears28.In Mohan's opinion,what human quality is lacking in digital beings______A. Calculating brain.B. Language skills.C. Instinctive judgements.D. Problem-solving ability.29.What makes many sectors employ digital humans?______A. The fear of falling behind in efficiency.B. The urgency to promote e-commerce.C. The wish to spread digital technology.D. The need to upgrade the health care system.30.What does Mohan think of the future of digital beings?______A. It's well planned.B. It is promising.C. It is uncertain.D. It's quite hopeless.DArt is everywhere.Any public space has been carefully designed by an artistic mind to be both functional and beautiful.Why,then,is art still so widely considered to be "the easy subject" at school,insignificant to wider society,a waste of time and effortArt can connect culture with commercial products in a way that not many other things can;art generates money and holds significant emotional and cultural value within communities.When people attend a concert,they are paying for music,sure,maybe even hotel rooms,meals,and transport,but they also gain an incredible experience,a unique atmosphere and a memory that will go through the rest of their lives.People don't just want material things anymore,they want to experience life一the arts are a perfect crossover(交迭)between culture and commerce. Furthermore,the arts can bring communities together,reducing loneliness and making people feel safer.Social bonds are created among individuals when they share their arts experiences through reflection and discussion,and their expression of common values through artworks in honour of events significant to a nation's experience.The arts clearly have a pretty positive impact on physical and psychological health.It is found that people who frequent cultural places or participate in artistic events are more likely to gain good health compared to those who do not;more engagement with the arts is linked to a higher level of people's wellbeing.The Royal Society of Public Health discovered that music and art,when used in hospitals,help to improve the conditions of patients by reducing stress,anxiety and blood pressure.Children who are involved with the arts make greater achievements in their education:those engaged with drama have greater literary ability while others taking part in musical practice exhibit greater skills in math and languages.Kids with preference for the arts have a greater chance of finding employment in the future.Participating in the arts is essential for child development;encouraging children to express themselves in constructive ways could help to form healthy emotional responses in later life.Vital to human life,art is celebrated and used by nations across the world for various purposes.Life without art would be boring and dead still,for art is a part of what makes us human.31.Art products differ from most other commercial products because ______ .A. most people purchase them for collectionB. they are more expensive and less accessibleC. they have both commercial and cultural valuesD. their prices may climb up as time passes32.By sharing their arts experiences,community members can ______ .A. keep the community safe from illnessesB. develop a stronger tie between themC. learn to appreciate their own works of artD. offer honourable solutions to their problems33.What can we learn about people who are involved in artistic activities?______A. They enjoy better living conditions.B. They like to compare themselves with others.C. They are particularly good at both music and art.D. They tend to be healthier physically and mentally.34.How does kids' engagement with the arts benefit them?______A. It promotes their academic performance and emotional growth.B. It gives them more confidence in exhibiting their learning skills.C. It inspires their creativity in designing their future career.D. It helps to make responsible people out of them.35.What is the best title for this passage?______A. How Art Cures Our HeartsB. Art:A Blessing to HumankindC. How Art Benefits CommunitiesD. Art:A Bridge Between Cultures三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)My brother and I are exactly one year apart.We look like twins,but we are completely (36) .By the time we got to middle school it was clear that my older brother(37) meditation (冥想),while I was a born(38)who preferred the theatrical,even when off stage.I took his relative silence to be offensive.We simply didn't(39).I didn't(40)having a tense relationship with my brother because I was involved at school.(41),I threw myself into the world of musicals.I practised singing in the bedroom every day to remain at my best and be(42)for roles;my brother would meditate on a window seat.He might feel high school was already hard enough(43)my noisy singing.So space to practise became a (n)(44)between us because we shared a room.At the start of the semester,I practised "Circle of Life" for a musical.This was the first timeI(45)to learn a song,because my voice cracked(破音)as I switched to a head voice.I was annoyed in that period and(46)practising,declaring I had reached the ceiling of my singing career.For the first time in years my brother(47)quiet when I got home.After two days of this,my brother asked me to(48)him in meditation.Feeling my anger at my inability to manage this song(49),I accepted.My brother said, "When your mind floats away,you simply come back.Don't blame yourself" I got the message,and it soon became my new(50).I kept trying at the song,no longer getting(51)at myself.And just in time for the trial performance,I was able to(52)power in my singing despite the switch to a head voice.It was important for me to learn that you don't have to always get everything(53)the first time and that good things come with continual(54).I now understand why my brother favours the(55). 36.

"I'm retired,but an artist never retires," Anneke said. "The last few years on the internet have been a great joy for me.I've taken so many Udemycourses,and it's such a great feeling to get my brain working again.I find just as much satisfaction in teaching animation(动画制作)too."She reaches countless people with her online courses and exposes them to what they can accomplish on their own using animation software,such as GoAnimate and PowToon.Her motivation for teaching on Udemy is "to get the tools to the people.""You can go such along way to make things that look professional but still have your own voice," sheexplained.Most of Anneke's students start out thinking they're not creative and can't draw.Anneke understands how fear can get in the way of so many things people dream of doing.With her five-day challenge courses,she helps them get over the fear.Anneke loves the impact she has on her students.What makes her more proud of them is that they have gone from their first animation to creating their own works.She encourages people of all ages,especially older people,to their curiosity forlife.Grandparents,for example,can learn to use GoAnimate and make animations together with their grandkids."I'm an older woman,teaching and having fun learning again," Anneke said,and she wants others later in their lives to catch up with her on this journey.(1) What does Anneke enjoy doing after her retirement?(no more than 10 words)______(2) According to Para.2,what does Anneke expect her students to do with animationsoftware?(no more than 10 words)______(3) What is the main idea of Para.3(no more than 15 words)______(4) Please explain the meaning of the underlined word in Para.4.(1 word)______(5) What do you suggest old people learn to do Please give your reason(s).(no more than 20 words)______五、书面表达(本大题共1小题,共25.0分)57.假如你是晨光中学的李津。

Devotion requires enthusiasm.(2020·广东省中山市·单元测试)CFor people, who are interested in sound, the field of sound technology is definitely making noise. In the past, sound engineers worked in the back rooms of recording studios, but many of today's sound professionals are sharing their knowledge and experience with professionals in other fields to create new products based on the phenomenon we call sound.Sound can be used as a weapon. Imagine that a police officer is chasing a thief. The thief tries to escape. And the officer can't let him get away. He pulls out a special device, points it at the suspect, and switches it on. The thief drops to the ground. This new weapon is called a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD, 远程定向声波发射器). It produces a deafening sound so painful that it temporarily disables a person. The noise from the LRAD is directed like a ray of light and travels only into the ears of that person, but it is not deadly.For those who hunger for some peace and quiet, sound can now create silence. Let's say you are at the airport, and the little boy on the seat next to you is humming (哼唱)a short commercial song. He hums it over and over again, and you are about to go crazy. Thanks to the Silence Machine, a British invention, you can get rid of the sound without upsetting the boy or his parents. One may wonder how the Silence Machine works. Well, it functions by analyzing the waves of the incoming sound and creating a second set of outgoing waves. The two sets ofwaves cancel each other out. Simply turn the machine on point it at the target, and your peace and quiet comes back.Directed sound is a new technology that allows companies to use sound in much the same way spotlights (聚光灯)are used in the theater. A spotlight lights up only one section of a stage; similarly, a "spotsound" creates a circle of sound in one targeted area. This can be useful for businesses such as restaurants and stores because it offers a new way to attract customers. Restaurants can offer a choice of music along with the various food choices on the menu, allowing customers more control over the atmosphere in which they are dining. Directed sound is also beginning to appear in shopping centers and even at homes.26.What could be inferred from Paragraph 2 about the effect of the LRADA. It causes temporary hearing loss.B. It slows down a running man.C. It makes it easy to identify a suspect.D. It keeps the suspect from hurting others.27.The Silence Machine is a device specially designed to____.A. silence the people around youB. remove the sound of commercialsC. block the incoming sound wavesD. stop unwanted sound from affecting you28.What feature do spotsounds and spotlights shareA. They travel in circles.B. They clear the atmosphere.C. They can be transformed into energy.D. They can be directed onto a specific area.29.Directed sound can be used for____.A. creative designs of restaurant menusB. ideal sound effects on the theater stageC. different choices of music for businessesD. strict control over any suspicious customer30.What does the passage focus on?A. How professionals invented sound products.B. Inventions in the field of sound technology.C. The growing interest in the study of sound.D. How sound engineers work in their studios.(2020·广东省中山市·单元测试)DAfter years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance, curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.Together, these deep human urges (驱策力) count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, "Why? Why? Why?"Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them."The great man," said Mencius (孟子), "is he who does not lose his child's heart." Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied.Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. Now she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven't any special ability? Most people don't; there are only a few geniuses. You haven't any time? That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You're too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.31.In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ______.A. propose a definitionB. make a comparisonC. reach a conclusionD. present an argument32.What does the example of Galileo tell us?A. Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.B. Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.C. Creativity results from challenging authority.D. Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.33.What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent?A. Observe the unknown around you.B. Develop a questioning mind.C. Lead a life of adventure.D. Follow the fashion.34.What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7?A. Gaining success helps you become an expert.B. The genius tends to get things done creatively.C. Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.D. You should remain modest when approaching perfection.35.What could be the best title for the passage?A. Curious Minds Never Feel ContentedB. Reflections on Human NatureC. The Keys to AchievementD. Never Too Late to Learn三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)(2021·四川省绵阳市·月考试卷) Detective Ashley Jones works at a police department in England.He has recently made a significant (1)____ —loneliness is a serious social problem that can contribute to depression and even crimes,but it can be (2)____in a clever way.The (3)____?Chat benches.Jones got the idea after he had talked with an elderly lady who had been cheated of her(4)____.The lady would get a call from a stranger every morning who(5)____made her believe that he was her friend,and then she lent him about £31,000.Jones was(6)____when shesaid that she didnˈt actually(7)____being cheated."Otherwise,I would never speak to another person for weeks on end," she said.This led Jones to the conclusion that there are too many extremely(8)____people in his community,who are easy targets of cheating.So he (9)____to do something about it.He (10)____the police department to allow him to(11)____a couple of "chat benches" in two of their local parks.Then he hung a colorful sign on each of the benches that(12)____:"HAPPY TO CHAT".Just a few days after the signs went up,he found people sitting there and engaging in active and (13)____conversations.The idea is catching on(14)____.There are now over 40 chat benches throughout England.More new chat benches have sprung up across the UK and beyond.All who participated have gained a(n)(15)____ outcome from getting involved.Jonesˈ idea has been fully(16)____—the "HAPPY TO CHAT" benches help(17)____the invisible social barrier that keeps people from saying hello.This effort is not just a(n)(18)____at being community minded—itˈs also a (19)____measure.It prevents people who are cut off from society falling victim to cheaters.The Chat Bench is a fantastic new project that (20)____those of all ages to interact and get to know each other in the future36.

"I started thinking about what I could do to stop the wastefulness in my immediate community," the fashion lover said.The blog,,aims to make reusing thrift store (旧货店)finds or last season's pieces easy and fashionable while cutting down on the resources consumed by garment production,Alexis said.Through online research,she discovered that a simple cotton T-shirt takes more than 700 gallons of water to make."It made me realize that the fashion industry consumes huge amounts of natural resources as it relies on producing garments quickly and in large supply - many of the garments are only intended to be worn three or four times," she said.Alexis had a number of tools to help her get started.Her mom,Kimberly,taught her to sew when she was 5.Her grandmother taught her to crochet(钩边)around the same time.Alexis said she also gained technical knowledge and inspiration from her part-time job at a clothing company that creates theater wardrobes for schools and drama productions.Prior to the blog launch,she spent several months illustrating "recycling" projects by creating photo tutorials.Though Ecouturier hasn't been online long,she's been getting positive . "I've had people come up to me in the hall and say,'Hey,I saw your blog.I'm working on one of the projects right now,'" Alexis said.She said she hasn't bought a brand-new piece of clothing since last July,and her thrift store shopping has paid off with finds such as a ﹩5 (31 yuan)dress she wore to homecoming. "Taking an hour from Saturday afternoon to make something for yourself can really have an impact on the environment.A little change every day can really add up," Alexis said.21.What inspired Alexis to launch a do-it-yourself blog?______A. Her talent at making handicrafts.B. Her fascination with the fashion industry.C. Her part-time work experiences.D. Her growing concern for the environment after taking a biology class.22.What is the content of the blog Alexis set up?______A. It sells items made from thrift store finds.B. It teaches people how to choose thrift store goods.C. It encourages people to remake their clothing in a cool way.D. It informs people of the bad effects of deforestation and habitat destruction.23.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text______A.

" This kind of is key to her practice.Jennifer,a social worker whose practice focuses on adolescents,has been a therapist(治疗师)for 20 years.For most of that time,she practiced in a traditional office,but she noticed how easy it was for her running partners to open up about their problems.After doing some research,in 2013,Jennifer founded Positive Strides Therapy,where she conducts sessions while walking outdoors.She conducts all of her sessions outdoors and in all kinds of weather."When somebody asks me if I specialize in walking therapy,I say,'No,that's how I practice,' " Udler said. "I specialize in family systems theory.Walking in the park is just where I practice. " Despite the lack of formal research,Jennifer believes strongly in the benefits,saying that can be helpful. "We'll be talking about 'moving forward' as we are actually moving forward on the path,building muscle memory of how they can move forward and leave the anxiety behind. " And outdoor walking therapy doesn't just benefit teens.Jennifer says the adults in her practice welcome the humanizing effect of taking therapy outdoors.26.What lesson did Jennifer teach her teenage patient through the rain______A.

To tell us that Richard lives a healthy life.B. To bring up the topic of the passage.C. To give us a brief introduction of RichardD. To tell Richard is a successful businessman.32.The "alarm" in the first paragraph refers to " ______ ".A. a signal of stressB. a warning of dangerC. a sign of ageD. a spread of disease33.According to Paragraph 3,a successful person is one who is believed to ______ .A. be able to work without stressB. be more talented than other peopleC. be more important than anyone elseD. be busying working without time to rest34.According to the passage during the Sabbath ,what we should do except ______ .A. Praying for our family.B. Taking a good break.C. Only working for two hours.D. Enjoying delicious meal.35.What is the main idea of this passage?______A. We should balance work with rest.B. The Sabbath gives us permission to rest.C. It is silly for anyone to say "I am busy."D. We should be available to our family and friends.三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)When I was a child,my mother didn't force me to eat everything in my dish.She said I hadto(36)every food three times.Her(37)was the first time to try it,the second time to get over the fact that you had just tried it,and the third to(38)that you don't like it.After that,if I still(39)the taste,she would(40)make me eat it again.Her reasonable approach(41) almost every time-- except with bananas,which I still don't eat now.As I grew older,I brought that simple(42)into my life.I had been(43)the diving board at the pool,but I had(44) to make the first jump off the board.When I breathed in water,my mother jumped in to(45) me.Before she could even reach me,I was up and out of the pool,heading back to that diving board.I jumped off(46).More coughing followed,but I was determined to get over this fear.When I(47) the pool the second time,my mom tried to cover me with a towel.(48),I threw off the towel and(49)trying.The third time there was no(50) and no water in my nose.In fact there were (51) from the others at the pool.At that point,I fell in love with the pool.In my mid-thirties,I(52)a successful job that didn't satisfy me in order to achieve my dream of being a writer.Having been (53) twice,I tried for a third time.I have been happily living the life of a writer ever since.We are all afraid of something(54) .But how can we be sure that something won't be (55) unless we give it a try?36.

"Amsterdam's public space is limited," says the vice mayor for traffic,Pieter Litjens,who finally approved the pilot. "We need to be thoughtful and strategic about who and what uses that space."In the weeks before the lights were shut off,200 cyclists were interviewed in the morning and evening.A majority of them disliked the crossroads and made complaints.When asked whether the traffic lights were necessary,about a third said "absolutely yes," only 5% said absolutely not,and the majority was uncertain.It was clearly a question they had never thought about.When the lights were turned off,about 150 cyclists were interviewed.We found that notonly did fewer people dislike this crossroads,but about 60% said the traffic situation had improved.All interviewees spoke more about human interaction. "People pay more attention," said one man. "It's amazing that it regulates itself," said a young woman. "It's a bit scary,but you never have to stop and nobody is grumpy," said a teenager.But no one could really further explain why or how.Behaviour was noticeably different.Most cyclists slowed down as they approached the crossroads,and communicated to other cyclists and motorists usingeyes,gestures,expressions and voices.In one incident,a mother carrying her child on a front seat slowly entered the crossroads.When she was halfway across,a car approached from the right.Traffic signs indicate priority for the car driver,but instead,the mother made eye contact with the driver,both smiled,and the car driver .(1) Why was the pilot project carried out in Amsterdam?(no more than 10 words)______(2) What did most cyclists who were interviewed think of the pilot project?(no morethan 12 words)______(3) What does the underlined word "yielded" (the last paragraph)probably mean?(nomore than 2 word)______(4) Why does the writer mention the mother and the driver in the last paragraph(nomore than 8 words)______(5) Do you think the traffic lights can be turned off in Tianjin Please give your reason.(no more than 20 words)______五、书面表达(本大题共1小题,共25.0分)57.假如你是李津,你的加拿大的朋友Tim在邮件中谈到他们那里也出现了很多新型冠状病毒肺炎的病例,他有些紧张,并感觉网络信息的传播加剧了人们的恐慌.请你给他写封回信,主要内容如下:(1)对他的恐慌表示理解,谈谈你的境况;(2)简单阐述如何对待网络信息,说明理由;(3)给Tim提一些建议(如:勤洗手,少出门,戴口罩).参考词汇:新型冠状病毒肺炎coronavirus;口罩mask注意:(1)词数不少于100;(2)内容充实、行文连贯;(3)开头已给出,不计入总词数.Dear Tim,I've got your email and know that_______答案和解析1.【答案】A【解析】本题考查冠词的用法.根据句意和结构可知第一空使用不定冠词a修饰failure 意为"一件失败的事情";第二空使用a,修饰surprise,意为"一件惊讶的事情".故选:A.-我从没想到实验会失败.-我也没有.结果完全出乎意料.本题考查冠词的用法,冠词的基本用法是看这个名词是泛指还是特指,有的冠词是用于一些固定搭配,平常要注意积累.2.【答案】C【解析】答案C。

While二、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,共40.0分)APre-school children who spend time together take on one another's personalities,a new research has found.The study shows that environment plays a key role in shaping people's personalities.While genetics still forms the central part of the human psyche(心理),the research finds that personality traits(特征)are "contagious"(传染的)among children. "Our finding flies in the face of common assumptions that personality can't be changed," saidDr.Jennifer Neal,co-author of the study.The researchers studied the personalities and social networks of two pre-school classes for a full school year.One of the classes was a set of three-year-olds,and the other a set offour-year-olds.Children whose friends were hard-working or outgoing gradually took on these personality traits over time.Psychology expert Dr.Emily Dublin said kids are having a far bigger effect on each other than people may realize.The new study is not the first to explore the contagious effects of personality traits.A 2015 psychology study found that rudeness at work can be contagious as it travels from person to person "like a disease".The study found that seeing a boss being rude to an employee was enough to cause people to be rude to those around them.The researchers questioned 6,000 people on the social "climate" in their workplaces,which included offices,hotels and restaurants.They found 75 percent of those who took part said they had been treated rudely at least once in the past year.And the study also suggests that merely seeing other people being subjected to rudeness made it more likely that a person would treat their colleagues in the same way.Rudeness could include leaving someone off an invite to a company event,sending unkind emails,finding fault with others or failing to give praise.Dr.Torkelson believes companies need to be more aware of the harm that rudeness in the workplace can do as it can damage the working environment.She said better training could help to fight against the problem.16.What does the underlined part "flies in the face of" in Paragraph 1 mean?______A. Leads to.B. Goes against.C. Results from.D. Agrees with.17.According to Paragraph 2,who have the greatest impact on children's personality?______A. Their friends.B. Their parents.C. The researchers.D. The psychologists.18.Which of the following is considered rude at the workplace?______A. Ignoring the faults of co-workers.B. Not sending emails to workmates.C. Seeking praise from colleagues and bosses.D. Not inviting a colleague to a company party.19.What is the passage mainly about?______A. One's personality is hard to change.B. One's personality is shaped by genes.C. One's personality traits can spread to others.D. One's personality traits can change overnight.20.This passage is most probably taken from ______ .A. a school textbookB. a study guideC. a science reportD. a technical journalBWe see a woman swimming at night in a dark sea.Suddenly,she is pulled underwater.She surfaces,cries in fear,then disappears forever.This is the opening scene from the 1975 film Jaws,showing a shark attack.It tells the story of a great white shark that attacks and kills swimmers.Jaws was a great success,attracting huge audiences and winning many awards.It strengthened people's long-held idea of the great white shark as a dangerous animal.People have always been scared of sharks,but Jaws made things worse.It made people frightened of sharks,especially of the great white shark.Many people who saw the film started to believe that sharks were bad animals that ate humans.Some people stopped swimming in the sea,afraid of the horrible creature from the film.Other people started fishing for sharks,killing as many as they could.At that time,nobody cared if sharks were killed,or how many were killed.People just wanted them killed.After 1975,the number of large sharks around America fell quickly,and soon fell around the world.This was not only due to fear of sharks,but also finning.Finning is a type of fishing where sharks are caught and their fins cut off.The sharks are thrown back into the sea where they die slowly and painfully.The fins are used in shark fin soup.Finning kills millions of sharks a year.Finning would have an unexpected effect upon Peter Benchley,the man who wrote the book the film Jaws was based on.In 1980,Benchley was diving when he came across an awful sight.It was an area where fishermen were finning,and the sea floor was covered with dead sharks.Benchley saw sharks being killed and this caused a deep change in him.He came to see people as a danger to sharks,rather than the other way round.From that day on,he fought to protect sharks.He admitted that his book was wrong about sharks' behavior. "Sharks don't target humans," he said.Experts have proved that sharks do not see people as food,and they attack us by mistake.Only around six people are killed by sharks every year.Fortunately,not everyone who watched the film Jaws became afraid of sharks - some became interested in understanding them.Today,as we learn more about sharks.more people than ever want to protect them from extinction.21.Which of the following is true of the 1975 film Jaws?______A. A woman swam gracefully along with a shark in the opening scene.B. The film challenged people's long-held belief of the great white shark.C. Many awards were given to the film due to the frightening killing scenes.D. The shark was described as a cruel and dangerous animal to swimmers.22.What did people begin to do after they saw the film?______A. Some became more fascinated in swimming in the sea.B. Some were eager to fish sharks for their delicious meat.C. Some killed as many sharks as possible for no reason.D. Some called on others to protect the endangered sharks.23.What happens to a shark when it is finned?______A. It will be served onto the table as soups.B. It will suffer a lot and die slowly in the sea.C. Its fins will grow again after some time.D. Its fins will be thrown away into the ocean.24.What caused a deep change to Peter Benchley?______A. Seeing the finning scene and many dead sharks.B. Joining the fishermen who were killing and finning.C. Writing the book the film Jaws was based on.D. Knowing that sharks do not target and eat humans.25.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?______A. To inform people about sharks and recommend the film and the book to them.B. To describe the cruel finning scene and prove that sharks are dangerous animals.C. To explain people's misunderstanding of sharks and raise awareness of sharkprotection.D. To criticize Peter Benchley's misleading description of sharks in his book and advocatethe protection of shark.三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)In 1989,an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America,killing over 30,000 people in less than four minutes.In the middle of complete damage and disorder,a father rushed to the school where his son was(26) to be,only to discover that the building was completely(27) .After the unforgettable shock,he(28)the promise he had made to his son:"Nomatter(29)happens,I'll always be there for you!"

During this period in their life people often begin to discover what is meaningful to them and how they plan to continue living their life. My volunteer experience at St. Clare's Hospital has helped me form this positive experience during my high school years;through valuable lessons I have learned life skills and have begun to shape my values and mind-set. In the course of my volunteering at the hospital I have discovered how to interact with others, learned to respect diversity, realized the importance of service, and gained perspective. When I first began volunteering, I was very nervous about meeting new people and being pushed outside of my comfort zone. I am learning to introduce myself to new volunteers, go out of my way to make patients feel welcome, and overall how to extend a hand of friendship to others. Not only does this skill apply to my personal life, but will also be extremely helpful in my academic life and the "real world."I think one of the most significant values I have gained through my experience at St. Clare's Hospital is the importance of service. Service, involves making a difference in the lives of others and contributing to the community. Each time I end my volunteer shift, I feel better and as if I have done something worthwhile. This feeling has fueled me to continue volunteering,and has now become something I see as irreplaceable. In the past I have been frustrated by my situation, and was discouraged because I felt I might not make a significant difference due to my young age. However, I am relieved of this because I feel that through the hospital volunteer program I can try to do my part and help others.I genuinely think that without my volunteer experience at St. Clare's Hospital,I may have beena different person, lacking these skills and ideals. I have matured and gained valuable skills, as well as learned important lessons about life. Many people my age do not have an experience similar to this, where they are in an environment based only upon healing and helping others, and I think they have truly missed out. I will continue on this path of service throughout my life, and I know that because of my volunteer experience I have benefited, and that these benefits will carry on as I develop and become an adult.20.According to the passage, why is a person's high school years important?______A. Because people do volunteer work during this time.B. Because it is a time to interact with others.C. Because during this period, people begin to shape their lives.D. Because it is a time to discover the meaning of volunteering.21.What is the second paragraph mainly about?______A. I realized the importance of service.B. Each time I end my volunteer job, I feel better.C. Service is something irreplaceable.D. I am relieved of frustration.22.According to the passage, which of the following statement is true?______A. During the author's high school years he formed the positive experience.B. When the author first began volunteering, he was excited to meet new people.C. The author became lacking skills and ideals after volunteering at St. Clare's Hospital.D. Many high school students are in an environment based only upon healing and helpingothers.23.What sort of person was the author before he began volunteering?______A. Hesitating.B. Lonely.C. Generous.D. Unconfident.24.What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?______A. High school years are the most important period.B. He missed the experience during his high school years.C. He has benefited from his volunteer experience at St. Clare's Hospital.D. He was pushed outside of his comfort zone when working at St. Clare's Hospital.CSports fandom is about more than just entertainment. It can boost your self-esteem(自尊)and make you happier - and you don't have to root for the winning team to gain the benefits. Being a sports fan is a "very psychologically healthy activity," says Daniel Wann, professor at Murray State University whose research program centers on the psychology of sport fandom. Fandom connects us to other like-minded people, which satisfies our human need for belonging, he says.These relationships are significant:People who identify as sports fans have higher levels of self-esteem,lower levels of loneliness and tend to be more satisfied with their lives compared to those who aren't interested in sports, Wann says. Fans tend to have more access to social support, help and resources as well. Research suggests that when people have support from their communities, they have better health.Beyond bonding, fans get to enjoy the psychological benefits of winning,even if they have nothing to do with the players or games, says Stephen Reysen, associate professor at TexasA&M University-Commerce who studies identity and fandom."Individuals feel that the fan interest (in this case a sport team)is a part of them," Reysen says. "So when the team is winning, you feel like you are winning even though you are not a player." Of course, teams sometimes lose.So, why do people continue to put their faith behind teams that tend to lose?People who feel a strong psychological connection to a team are more likely to root for a team when they're having a losing season, Reysen says."Sports fandom has nothing to do with the outcome of a game," Wann says. For example,if a pizza restaurant continually got your order wrong, you'd likely switch to a more reliable one. But because being a fan is so central to people's identities, people are willing to accept defeat and continue to be loyal to a team.Being part of a fan community can also help people cope with losses. A 2019 study found that watching a football game with other fans helps to ease the negative psychological effects of losing."For fans of the losing team, sharing the pain may have protected them from losingself-esteem," Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, co-author of the study and professor of communication at The Ohio State University said in a release.25.According to the passage, why do sports fans feel happier?______A. Because they could gain the benefits from the winning team.B. Because they can share pains and happiness with people who have the commoninterests.C. Because they could have a low level of self-esteem.D. Because most of them are optimistic.26.What is the significance of the relationships between sports fans?______A. Sports fans have support from their favorite teams.B. Sports fans have higher levels of loneliness.C. Sports fans are likely more content with their lives.D. Sports fans tend to compare themselves to those who aren't interested in sports.27.According to the passage, if the team has a losing season, the sports fans may ______ .A. display their identitiesB. have a boost of self-esteemC. not support the team any moreD. have a negative psychology period28.According to the passage, what can help sports fans deal with losses of their team?______A. Being part of the team.B. Ordering a pizza in a different restaurant.C. Sharing the pain with family members.D. The loyalty to the team.29.What is the passage mainly about?______A. Sports fans have a closer relationship with other like-mined people.B. Sports fans have higher self-esteem and are more satisfied with their lives.C. Sports fans always put their faith behind their favorite teams.D. Sports fandom has nothing to do with the outcome of a game.DRenewable energy projects, including onshore and offshore wind and solar farms, have so far been subsidized (资助)by government support schemes. This has led to some to complainthat clean energy is pushing up bills.However, the most recently approved offshore wind projects will most likely operate with'negative subsidies' -- paying money back to the government. The money will go towards reducing household energy bills as the offshore wind farms start producing power in themid-2020s.This is the conclusion of an analysis by an international team led by Imperial College London researchers published today in Nature Energy.Lead researcher Dr Malte Jansen, from the Centre for Environmental Policy at Imperial,said:"Offshore wind power will soon be so cheap to produce that it will undercut fossil-fueled power stations and may be the cheapest form of energy for the UK. Energy subsidies used to push up energy bills,but within a few years cheap renewable energy will see them brought down for the first time. This is an astonishing development."The analysis for five countries in Europe, including the UK,focused on a series of government auctions(拍卖)for offshore wind farms between February 2015 and September 2019. Companies that want to build wind farms bid in the auctions by stating the price at which they will sell the energy they produce to the government.These are known as 'contracts for difference' or CfDs. If a company's bid is higher than the wholesale electricity price on the UK market once the wind farm is up and running, then the company will receive a subsidy from the government to top up the price.However, if the stated price(规定价格)is less than the wholesale price,then the company will pay the government back the difference. This payback is then passed through to consumer's energy bills, reducing the amount that homes and businesses will pay for electricity.The winning companies said they could build new offshore wind farms for around £40 per megawatt hour(MWh)of power. This was a new record set by these wind farms with bids 30 percent lower than just two years earlier.30.What does the passage mainly talk about?______A. Offshore wind farms to be built in the UK could reduce household energy bills byproducing electricity very cheaply.B. Offshore wind farms will not be subsidized by government in the near future.C. The importance of CfDs.D. The operation of negative subsidies.31.According to Paragraph 2,offshore wind farms ______ .A. will stop producing power in the mid-2020sB. are paying money back to the governmentC. will help reduce household energy billsD. will all operate with 'negative subsidies'32.The underlined words "top up" in Paragraph 6 probably mean ______ .A. make upB. take upC. coverD. fill up33.What can be inferred from the passage?______A. The renewable energy projects will lead to some to complain that clean energy ispushing up bills.B. The company whose bid is less than the wholesale electricity price will receive asubsidy.C. The stated electricity price is now higher than the wholesale electricity price.D. Fossil-fueled power will be soon produced cheaply.34.What is the author's attitude towards the offshore wind farms?______A. Curious.B. Pessimistic.C. Indifferent.D. Optimistic.35.Where does this text probably come from?______A. A science fiction.B. A financial magazine.C. An advertisement.D. A science report.三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)It was early morning.

Not the wealthiest of families, but not poverty-stricken either.In his teenage years, his father had given him a timepiece which he later took to pieces just to see if he could piece it together again successfully, which he did. He then did the same with other people's timepieces and eventually he repaired them too. Henry was also a sufferer of Dyslexia(阅读困难者),and although this was a hurdle it was not a reason to give up.He completed an apprenticeship(学徒期)with James F. Flower & Bros,and also with the Detroit Dry Dock Company. In 1891 he met with Thomas Edison, who liked his concept of an auto-mobile, so he allowed him to use his warehouses to manufacture two vehicles.Ford was grateful but later built his own company so he could build the cars on his own terms backed by William H. Murphy and in 1899 he founded the Detroit Automobile Company.This was short lived, however, as the vehicles produced lacked the quality and precision.And they were horribly expensive. The business went under, but it didn't stop him. Ford went on to build the Cadillac Automobile company.After almost failing a second time because of lack of sales and high debts, more partners came into the business and the name was changed to the Ford Motor Company. The Ford Motor Company generated around 156 billion U.S. dollars in revenue (税收)in 2019.
