2019届上海高三英语二模汇编--阅读C篇（解析版）
2019届上海高三英语二模汇编--阅读C篇（解析版）2019届高三英语二模汇编——阅读C篇1、2019黄浦二模Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（C）Right now, I am looking at a shelf full of relics, a collection of has-beens, old-timers, antiques, fossils. Right now, I am looking at a shelf full of books. Yes, that’s right. If you have some spare cash (the going rate is about $89) and you are looking to enhance your reading experience, then I highly suggest you consider purchasing an e-reader. E-readers are replacing the books of old and I welcome them with open arms (as you should).An e-reader is a device that allows you to read e-books. An e-book is a book-length publication in digital form, consisting of text, images or both, and produced on, published through and readable on computers or other electronic devices. Sometimes the equivalent of a conventional printed book, e-books can also be born digital. The Oxford Dictionary of English defines the e-book as “an electronic version of a printed book”, but e-books can and do exist without any printed equivalent.E-readers put printed books to shame. E-readers are superior to printed books because they save space, are environmentally friendly and provide helpful reading tips and tools that printed books do not.The average e-reader can store thousands of digital books,providing a genuine library at your fingertips. What is more, the e-reader itself is very small. It is easy to hold and can fit in a pocketbook or briefcase easily. This makes handling wooden giant such as War and Peace and Anna Karenina a breeze. Perhaps the only drawback to the space-saving aspect of an e-reader is that it requires you to find new things to put on your shelves.In addition, e-readers are environmentally friendly. The average novel is about 300 pages long. So, if a novel is printed 1000 times, it will use 300,000 pieces of paper. That’s a lot of paper! And for the super bestsellers, these figures increase dramatically. For example, the Harry Potter book series has sold o ver 450 million copies. That’s about 2 million trees! Upon viewing these figures, it is not hard to grasp the severe impact of printed books on the environment. Since e-readers use no trees, they represent a significant amount of preservation in terms of the environment and its resources.Finally, e-readers provide helpful reading tips and tools that printed books do not. The typical e-reader allows its user to adjust letter size, letterform and line spacing. It also allows highlighting and electronic bookmarking.Furthermore, it grants users the ability to get an overview of a book and then jump to a specific location based on that overview. While these are all nice features, perhaps the most helpful of all is the ability to get dictionary definitions at the touch of a finger. On even the most basic e-reader, users can find instant definitions without having to hunt through a physical dictionary.It can be seen that e-readers are superior to printed books. They save space, are environmentally friendly and provide helpfulreading tips and tools that printed books do not. So what good are printed books? Well, they certainly make nice decorations.63. As used in paragraph 1, it can be inferred that “has-beens, old-timers, antiques, fossils”are all words that describe something ____________.A. outdatedB. typicalC. meaningfulD. useless64. Based on information in the passage, it can be inferred that printed books of War and Peace and AnnaKarenina are all ____________.A. superior and dramaticB. dense and environmentalC. awkward and heavyD. significant and resistant65. According to the author, which of the following reading tips and tools are offered by the e-reader?①line spacing customization②the ability to quickly jump to the end of a book③access to a printed dictionary at the touch of a fingerA. ①and ②onlyB. ①and ③onlyC. ②and ③onlyD. ①, ②and ③66. Which of the following sentences from the passage best summarizes the author’s main point?A. “If you have some spare cash(the going rate is about $89)and are looking to enhance your readingexperience, then I highly suggest you consider purchasing ane-reader.”B. “E-readers are replacing the books of old, and I welcome them with open arms (as you should)．”C. “An e-reader is a device that allows you to read e-books. An e-book is a book-length publication in digitalform, consisting of text, images, or both, and produced on, published through, and readable on computers or other electronic devices.”D. “E-readers are superior to printed books because they save space, are environmentally friendly, and providehelpful reading tips and tools that printed books do not.”答案：63-66 ACAD难度：中等解析：本文为说明文。
2019-2020学年上海市黄浦学校高三英语二模试卷及答案
2019-2020学年上海市黄浦学校高三英语二模试卷及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AExperts say that if food were a country, it would rank second behind theUSas one of the biggest greenhouse gas polluters. The reason is the rising demand for meat. Animal farming is responsible for 14.5 percent of global methane emissions. While cowsare the worst contributors, pigs, sheep, donkeys and other animals play a part as well.Animal agriculture also causes land to become damaged, water to be polluted and forests to get destroyed. With the world population forecast to rise to 9.8 billion by 2050, things are only looking worse for our already decreasing natural resources. While going vegetarian would help, meat consumption is too deep-rooted in most Western diets to allow for such a sharp, permanent change. That is why experts are advocating substituting some of the beef, chicken, or pork with ordinary insects!Insects, which grow into adults within a matter of months, if not weeks, are ready for consumption much faster than domestic animals. They also require much less room, use less water and food, and produce far less greenhouse gas than animals.Of the 1.1 million insect species worldwide, scientists have identified 1,700 as eatable. Among them are ants, grasshoppers, grubs, and earthworms. Just like animals, each insect has a different taste. Tree worms taste just like pork, and grubs are similar to smoked meat.While eating insects might be a new concept for Western people, over 2 billion people worldwide consume insects as a regular part of their diet. Besides being delicious, insects are high in protein, have very few calories, and are free of the saturated fat found in animal meat. Insects can be prepared in many ways. Creative cooks can use them to cook protein-rich soup, make baked treats, and even fry a few with vegetables. So eat insects--- both your body and Mother Earth will thank you for it!1. Which of the following animals contribute the most to global methane emissions?A. Sheep.B. Donkeys.C. Cows.D. Pigs.2. How is the third paragraph developed?A. By making comparisons.B. By providing examples.C. By listing data.D. By asking questions.3. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Few people eat insects regularly.B. Ordinary insects are high in fat.C. Insects contain various vitamins.D. Saturated fat is harmful to health.BPeggy Whitson's job demands a daily twohour workout in a gym where weight has no meaning and the view changes at 17,000 miles an hour.Whitson makes it look easy. At 57, she is the oldest woman to fly in space, breaking the record last November, 2016, when she began her third longterm stay at the International Space Station. After returning home in September, 2017, the NASA astronaut feltmatter-of-factabout the age milestone.“It wasn't a record I was seeking for,” Whitson said. “I was 42 and 48 for my first two space flights. I feel lucky that I was able to get to do another one in my 50s. I don't think people should let age discourage them, even on those jobs that require some amount of physical fitness. The oldest man is John Glenn (at 77), and we've had male astronauts in their 60s before, so it's just a matter of time before women start flying in space at this age”.On the earth, she stays fit by weightlifting, biking, playing basketball and water skiing. She shared what it's like to live in microgravity: “It's like you're in a swimming pool, but you don't have to worry about breathing. If I push off from one side, I'm going to float to the other side. Every direction feels exactly the same, which is really hard for your brain to grasp, but it's amazing how fast you adapt.It's a big shock for the body to come back to Earth—everything is so heavy. We spend a lot of time getting used to being back in gravity again. Back pain was really the most dramatic for me this time. For me, coming home is harder than going up into space.”4. How long did Peggy Whitson spend for her third stay in the International Space Station?A. About 300 days.B. About 708 days.C. About 107 days.D. About57 days.5. What does the underlined word probably mean in the passage?A. Amazing.B. Not surprising.C. Enthusiastic.D. Unbelievable.6. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. Peggy Whitson likes swimming most.B. Peggy Whitson is the oldest person to fly in space.C. Peggy Whitson had been in space in 2002 and 2008.D. There had been female astronauts over 60s flying in space before.7. Which of the following will Peggy Whitson probably say?A. You can still be successful and do physical things when old.B. I spent quite a lot of time getting used to the life in space.C. The moment we reached the earth, we felt so relaxed.D. I feel lucky that I am physically well after the whole journey.CLast summer, Maria and her mother moved from their house in the countryside to a flat building in Chicago. Maria really liked some things about the city, but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don’t have a yard,” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia laughed. “I’ll show you,” she said.Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof. When the door opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.“What a wonderful garden!” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.“I plant flowers in my own place,” Mrs. Garcia said, “but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside. You just have to be creative!”8. Where did Mrs. Garcia take Maria to one day?A. The park.B. The roof.C. The garden in front of her house.D. The countryside.9. Which of the following is NOT the good side of the community garden?A. It made the building stronger.B. It helped keep the air clean.C. It helped keep the building cooler.D. It used the empty space well.10. After Maria visited the garden, she would most probably ask her mom to ________.A. go back to the countrysideB. pick flowers from the gardenC show her around the park D. grow vegetables on the roof11. What is the best title for this passage?A. A Creative LadyB. An Empty RoofC. A Rooftop GardenD. A Special BuildingDWhen Alex Linwas 11 years old, he read an alarming article in the newspaper, which said that people were burying old computers in backyards, throwing TVs into streams, and dumping (丢弃) cell phones in the garbage. This was dangerous because e-waste contains harmful chemicals that can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies and people.Alex was really worried and decided to make it next project for WIN-the Westerly Innovations Network. Alex and six of his friends had formed this organization to help solve community problems two years before.But what could they do about this project with e-waste? The team spent several weeks gathering information about the harmful chemicals in e-waste and their effects on humans. They learned how to dispose(处置) of e-waste properly and how it could be recycled. Then, they sent out a Survey and found only one in eight know what e-waste was, let alone how to properly dispose of it.Alex and his friends went into action. They advertised in the local newspaper and distributed notices to students, asking residents to bring their unwanted electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they collected over 9, 500 kilograms of e-waste. The next step was to set up a long-term e-waste drop-off center for the town. After some research, they’d learned that reusing is the best way to deal with electronic devices and it is seven times more efficient than recycling. So, they began learning to retrofit (翻新) computers themselves and distributed them to students who didn’t have their own. In this way, they could help students in the area and protect the environment at the same time.For a lasting solution to e-waste, the drop-off center wasn’t enough. Lawswould have to be passed. In 2016, WIN helped push for an e-waste bill in their town, which required companies that manufactured or sold electronics to take back e-waste. The bill clearly forbids the dumping of e-waste. Because of the work of WIN, more and more people, like Alex and his team, are getting the message about safe disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s harmful garbage.”12. What was Alex’s worry after he read the article?A. The littering of e-waste.B. The recycling of plastic.C. The change of environment.D. At 11 p.m. on Monday.13. What did Alex do to start the project?A. Set up WIN.B. Collect information.C. Ask friends for help.D. The overuse of old computer.14. Which can best describe the way Alex and his team did their work?A. Traditional.B. Competitive.C. Scientific.D. Convenient.15. What message does the story convey?A. There is no end to perfection.B. success comes through failure.C. Every positive attitude has a reward.D. young people can make a big difference.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。

2019届高三英语二模汇编——阅读B篇1、2019黄浦二模Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(B)● Stocky, slow-moving whale, rarely grows beyond 15 metres in length● Flippers are a third of body length; variable dorsal fin size and shape; saw-toothed trailing edge on flukes, oftenraised when diving● Bumpy tubercles on top of head● Body colour is dark brown to black; often extensive white on flippers and underside of body and flukes; suchpatterns enable individual recognition● Bushy blow, occasionally V-shaped● 270-400 olive baleen platesHumpback whales belong to the rorqual (groove-throated) family, which includes fin, sei, Bryde’s, minke and blue whales. The big family migrate between winter tropical breeding areas (North West Shelf, Great Barrier Reef, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiii, Tonga) and summer Antarctic feeding areas. Once common in New Zealand waters, humpbacks are now rarely seen and may migrate further offshore. Males compete for mates either by physical fight or by song. Females give birth to their young every two to three years; some non-breeding females probably remain in the southern waters during winter. Young humpback whales return to their area of birth but in later life some wander between breeding areas. Humpbacks eat small shrimps and other schooling prey, such as fish, forming small, cooperative groups of two to three individuals to feed.Similar species: Easily identifiable due to a ‘hump’ back when submerging, but at a distance may be confused with other species that raise their flukes when diving, such as sperm, right and blue whales.Protection status:Recovering well from past whaling and now numerous in some former migration and aggregation areas, rarely seen in others.60. Which of the following is TRUE about humpback whales?A. Their long flippers vary in length, size and shape like dorsal fin.B. They are large and likely to grow longer than 15 metres.C. The different colors and patterns of the body help to be recognized.D. Their bumpy tubercles and blowholes are on both sides of head.61. Which of the following can be inferred from this article’s description of humpback whales’ migration?A. They need warmer waters to breed.B. They can’t survive in extreme cold.C. They find plentiful food in tropical waters.D. They are mostly hunted in New Zealand waters.62. This article is mainly intended to .A. explain why humpbacks are still hunted in some parts of the worldB. introduce how humpbacks migrate through some dangerous watersC. popularize the basic knowledge of humpbacks and call for protectionD. help distinguish humpbacks from other similar species答案：60-62 CAC难度：中等解析：本文为说明文。

Using the bank account for call pay in any country．23.The passage is mainly intended to ______ ．A. offer tips to travelers on how to call home for lessB. help travelers find the easiest way to call back homeC. introduce the optional approaches to family connectionD. advise travelers to call home through broadband or wireless InternetFTourism is a leisure activity，whose prework means just the opposite．Acting as a tourist is one of the clear characteristics of being "modern" and the popular concept of tourism is that，it is organized within particular place and occurs for a period of time，which is arranged beforehand．Tourist relationships arise from a movement of people to，and their stay in，various destinations．This necessarily involves some movement，that is the journey，and a period of stay in a new place or places．The journey and the stay are by definition outside the normal places，of residence and work，and are of a short-term and temporary nature，and there is a clear intention to return home within a relatively short period of time．Modern societies engage in such tourist practices．New socialized forms of transportation and hotel facilities have developed in order to cope with the mass character of the gazes of tourists，as opposed to the individual character of travel．Places are chosen to be visited and be gazed upon because there is an anticipation （期望）especially through daydreaming and fantasy of intense pleasures，either on a different scale or involving different senses from those who have been there．Such anticipation is also constructed and stays through a variety of non-tourist practices，such as films，TV，literature，magazines，records and videos which construct and reinforce this daydreaming．Tourists tend to visit features of landscape and townscape which separate them off from everyday experience．Such aspects are viewed because they are thought to be in some sense out of the ordinary．The viewing of these tourist sights often involves different forms of social patterning with a much greater sensitivity to visual elements of landscape or townscape than is normally found in everyday life．People hang around these sights in a way that they would not normally do in their home environment and the vision is objectified or captured through photographs，postcards films and so on which enable the memory to be endlessly reproduced and recaptured．One of the earliest research paper on the subject of tourism is Boorstin's analysis of the "pseudo-event" （1964）where he argues that contemporary Americans cannot experience "reality" directly but are happy with "pseudo-events"．Isolated from the host environment and the local people，the mass tourist travels in guided groups and finds pleasure in fake orman-made attractions，and is cheated into enjoying the pseudo-events and disregarding the real world outside．Over time the images generated of different tourist sights lead to a closed self- perpetuating（自我延续的）system of a false belief that provides the tourist with the basis for selecting or deciding potential places to visit．Such visits are made，says Boorstin，within the "environmental bubble" of the familiar American style hotel which keeps the tourist from the strangeness of the host environment．24.In the 1st paragraph，the author wants to say that before you travel to a new place ______ ．A. making a careful travel plan is necessaryB. planning travel involves time and thoughtC. getting travel tips from your friends may save timeD. choosing unusual tourist attractions makes a trip memorable25.The sentence "the viewing of these tourist sights often involves different forms of socialpatterning" in the 3rd paragraph means ______ ．A. traveling to an unfamiliar place is a pleasant change from everyday routineB. new environmental scenes in a different place will become more attractiveC. tourists should find the native people and share with them ideas and experienceD. travelling is to see landmarks and discover unknown ways of life and values26.We can infer from the last paragraph that ______ ．A. when travelling，many tourists will miss their homes and friendsB. visiting popular tourist attractions is only a waste of timeC. the virtue of travel is to interact with a culture different from your ownD. American tourists like to visit familiar places when they travel outside27.Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage？______A. Tourism，an Outlook on Different LifeB. Tourism，a Direct Hug of NatureC. Tourism，a New Relation to Familiar SightsD. Tourism，a False Belief about the WorldA scheme was first put forward recently by an expert that certain criminals should be sent to prison in their own home．(1) One very experienced social worker expressed his serious reservation about the scheme in a television interview．When asked to explain why，he thought for a moment and finally confessed "Well，I guess because it's new．That's my only reason．Advocates of the scheme pointed out that courts frequently sentenced first offenders to community service of some kind rather than send them to prison．(2) Nothing positive was achieved by sending some types of convicted people to prison．(3) "If a murderer is allowed free in the community like this，what is to prevent him from killing somebody else？" This argument ignored the fact that nobody proposed to allow convicted murderers to use the bracelet system．One criticism put forward was that an offender could take off his bracelet and leave it at home or give it to a friend to wear while he himself went off to commit another crime．The reply to this was that the bracelet would be made so that the computer would immediately detect any attempts to take it off or tamper with it．A more serious objection to the scheme was that the harsh life of prison was intended to be part of the deterrent to crime．A prisoner who was allowed to live at home would suffer no particular discomfort and thus not be deterred from repeating his crime．No immediate action was taken on the proposal．It was far too revolutionary and needed to be examined very carefully．(4) Several governments appointed experts to investigate the scheme and make recommendations for or against it．A．The idea，however，was not rejected．B．They should spend their lives in prison．C．It met with strong objections．D．Most of the criminal cases are unpredictable．Directions：Read the following passage．Summarize the main idea and the main point（s）of the passage in no more than 60 words．Use your own words as far as possible．E．Some critics rushed to take extreme cases．F．The shame of having a criminal record was adequate for them．28. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F. F29. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F. F30. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F. F31. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F. F32.Directions：Read the following passage．Summarize in no more than 60 words the mainidea of the passage and how it is illustrated．Use your won words as far as possible．Blowing a Few TopsEver stopped to consider the upside of volcanic eruptions？It's not all death，destruction and hot liquid rock-scientists have a plan to cool the planet by simulating one sucheruption．Solar geoengineering involves simulating a volcano by spraying aerosols（气溶胶）into the atmosphere．When they combine with oxygen，droplets of sulfuric acid （硫酸）form．These droplets reflect sunlight away from Earth，cooling the planet．All good in theory，but the consequences are largely unknown and a few could be disastrous．Ina study recently published in Nature Communications，researchers led by Anthony Jones，a climate scientist from the University of Exeter，found that using this technology in theNorthern Hemisphere could reduce the number of tropical winds hitting the U．S．and Caribbean．But there's an annoying exchange：more winds in the Southern Hemisphere and a drought across the Sahel region of Africa．That's because the entire climate system is linked-disrupting one region will invariably affect another．How would a nation react if another was causing its weather to get much worse？Would that be an act of war？There is，however，a case for using solar geoengineering on a global scale．Jones says it could be used to "take the edge off" the temperature increases scientists arepredicting．It could be used while the world searches for more effective strategies．The study also highlights a far bigger problem with solar geoengineering：its complete lack of regulation．"There's nothing that could stop one country just doing it，" Jones says．"You only need about 100 aircraft with three flights per day．It would cost 1 billion to 10 billion per year．" He adds，"It's deeply disturbing that we have this technology that could have such a massive influence on the climate，yet there's just no regulation to stop countries or even organizations from doing it．"Jones cautions that there is much about the climate system we do not understand，as well as far more work that will need to be done before solar geoengineering is consideredsafe-or too dangerous to even discuss．33.技术员给他推荐的这款新软件应能帮助他快速适应新的书写方式．（adapt）______34.虽然她有一份收入不错的工作，但是因为她不善管钱而经常入不敷出．（lack）______35.你电脑用得越熟练，你找到秘书工作的可能性就越大．（the more…．the more）______36.早餐要营养丰富，易于消化，使人有饱腹感，这样才能让人们工作时间更长而不感觉疲惫．（need）______37.Directions：Write an English composition in 120-150 words according to the instructionsgiven below in Chinese．校学生会开展了教科书再利用（the recycling of textbooks）的活动，号召高三学生把自己的教科书留给新生使用．你愿意参加这样的活动吗？假如你是李华，请向学生会发一份email进行回复，表明你的态度，并说明你的理由．答案和解析1.【答案】was elected【解析】1．was elected，考查时态语态，指1907年，所以用一般过去时态，主语和elect之间是被动关系，所以用被动语态，故填was

I live in the countryside, and I’d like to feel some sort of urban atmosphere.W: Oh, we organize a tour to Brighton, which might suit you. At this time it is very popular, and a lot of people are asking for this package.M: Hopefully it is not very expensive.

We also have some cheaper choices, like flats, bed and breakfast places and youth hostels. It really depends on what you like.M: B & B, I mean bed and breakfast places might be a good choice for me.W: Yes, a lot of people for pleasure choose it as it is not that expensive and with much convenience and privacy. At the moment, the price is 280 pounds for a seven-day holiday.M: That sounds great!W: And we have three choices depending on your need.M: Could you tell me the information in detail?W: Certainly, the first place is …11. Why does Jack choose Brighton as his holiday destination?12. What does Jack consider the most important while choosing a package tour?13. What will the woman introduce next?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.Do you enjoy playing video games? Imagine if your gaming talents could actually be put to use in the real world? Ned Johnson, a trainee surgeon, played video games in his spare time when he was at medical school. But this relaxing pastime wasn’t distracting him from his studies. In fact, he thinks his time in front of a screen helped his surgery skills. Operating gaming controls helped him with his concentration and good hand-eye cooperation. Also, there are other abilities he has learned which can be applied to real-life work situations. For example, some games involve strategy and resource management, which are good skills for management.Now businesses are waking up to the skills video gamers can bring to the workplace. But employers might still need convincing that gamers are not just teenagers wasting their time in their bedrooms without thinking about their career prospects.Playing video games certainly doesn’t guarantee you a good job, and you need to be an accomplished gamer for your skills to shine. But if so much time is being spent on video games, why not put those talents to good use?14. What did playing video games help Ned Johnson improve?15. According to the passage, what’s employers’ attitude towards video gamers?16. In the passage, what suggestion is given to video gamers?Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following passage.Houseplants add a natural touch. They are able to improve the air quality, brighten up a room and thus improve people’s health and happiness. Nearly 72% of adults in the UK had a houseplant in their home, with this figure rising to 80% of 16-24 year olds. It seems young people are driving the growth in the sales of houseplants. According to research by The Economist, more young people are living in flats without a garden. Being able to care for something but not having too much commitment is ideal for their lifestyle.But whatever their benefits, there are now concerns that they might not be so good for the environment. Some are bought online and shipped from overseas. Fay Kenworthy, co-founder of a community initiative that encourages people to trade plants locally, said, “this costs energy like fuel and it is not eco-friendly”. But botanists argue that home delivery has less of an environmental impact than multiple trips to the garden centre in a car. Although some are not too concerned about the environmental impact, others are worried about the plastic pots they are in and the type of fertilizer that some of them are grown in. However, a sustainableapproach to buying them may be the best way forward if we want to introduce some natural greenery into our homes.17. In the UK, what’s the percentage of 16-24 year olds that keep houseplants?18. Why are young people in UK fond of houseplants?19. Why is Fay Kenworthy against purchasing houseplants from overseas?20. What does the passage talk about?II. Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passage, there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Retailers(零售商)closed more than 9,000 stores in 2019. Some people call what has happened to the shopping landscape “the retail ___41___.” It is easy to owe it to the rise of e-commerce, which has boomed while physical stores struggle. But this can be ___42___. Online sales have grown tremendously in the last 20 years, but internet shopping still represents only 11 percent of the entire retail sales total. Collectively, three major ___43___ forces have had an even bigger impact on physical retail than the internet has.To begin with, we have changed ___44___ we shop — away from smaller stores like those in malls and toward stand-alone “Big Box” stores, which is a greater problem for most physical stores.Also, rising inc ome ___45___ has left less of the nation’s money in the hands of the middle class, and the traditional retail stores that ___46___ them have suffered. It is estimated that since 1970, the share of the nation’s income earned by families in the middle class has fallen from almost two-thirds to around 40 percent. As the ___47___ of income at the top rises, overall retail suffers simply because high-income people save a much larger share of their money. The government reports ___48___ for different income levels in the officialConsumer Expenditure Survey. In the latest data, people in the top 10 percent of income ___49___ almost a third of their income after tax, while people in the middle of the income distribution spent 100 percent of their income. ___50___, as the middle class has been squeezed and more has gone to the top, it has meant higher saving rates overall.Lastly, we have spent ___51___ less of income on things and more on services with every passing decade. Since 1960, we went from spending 5 percent of our income on health to almost 18 percent. We spend more on education, entertainment, business services and all sorts of other products that aren’t ___52___ in traditional retail stores. Economists debate theories of why people have ___53___ to services and away from goods, but no one questions that it has happened. It means that over time, retailers selling ___54___ will have to run harder and harder just to stay in place.In short, the broad forces hitting retail are more a lesson in economics than i n the power of ___55___.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.( A )Katherine Johnson, winner of the presidential medal of freedom, refused to be limited by society’s expectations of her gender and race while expanding the borders of humanity’s reach. –President Barack Obama, 2015Using little more than a pencil, a slide rule and one of the finest mathematical minds in the country, Mrs. Johnson, who died at 101, calculated the precise path that would let Apollo 11 land on the moon in 1969 and, after N eil Armstrong’s history-making moonwalk, let it return to Earth. Yet throughout Mrs. Johnson’s 33 years in NASA’s Flight Research Division and for decades afterward, almost no one knew her name. She was just one of those unheralded women who, well before the modern feminist (女权) movement, worked as NASA mathematicians. But it was not only her gender that kept her long marginalized and long unsung: Katherine Johnson, a West Virginia native, was also African-American.But over time, the work of Mrs. Johnson and her colleagues — countless calculations done mainly by hand, using slide rules, chart paper and inefficient desktop calculating machines —won them a level of acceptance that for the most competitive race.“NASA was a very professional organization,” Mr s. Johnson told The Observer of Fayetteville, N.C., in 2010. “They didn’t have time to be concerned about what color I was.” Nor, she said, did she. “I don’t have a feeling of inferiority,” Mrs. Johnson said on at least one occasion. “Never had. I’m as goo d as anybody, but no better.”To the end of her life, Mrs. Johnson refused praise for her role in sending astronauts into space, keeping them on course and bringing them safely home. “I was just doing my job,” Mrs. Johnson repeatedly said so. But what a job it was — done, no less, by a woman born at a time when the odds were more likely that she would die before age 35 than even finish high school.56. The underlined word “unheralded” most probably means __________.A. not adequately paidB. not previously mentionedC. not officially rewardedD. not fast promoted57. It was __________ put together that made Mrs. Johnson a miracle.A. her skin color, her gender and the facilitiesB. her gender, her intelligence and the facilitiesC. her skin color, her gender and her intelligenceD. her intelligence, her skin color and the facilities58. From Mrs. Johnson’s comments on NASA and her own job, we can conclude that __________.A. she was confident and modestB. NASA shows no interest in staf f’s racesC. She was superior to most women in her ageD. NASA is professionally organized and supportive59. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Woman Made CalculationsB. NASA Marginalized MathematiciansC. Gender Divided OrganizationsD. Mathematician Broke Barriers【答案】56-59:BCAD( B )our mission our suppo rters about usFrequently Asked QuestionsWhat is “UNICEF”?UNICEF is the United Nations Children’s Fund.When created in 1946 to help children in war-torn Europe, China and the Middle East, UNICEF stood for “United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund.”In 1947, UNICEF USA was founded, one year after UNICEF, to support UNICEF’s lifesaving work for children.By 1953, UNICEF’s task was extended to address the needs of children in the developing world. At that time, the words “international” and “emergency” were dropped from the organization’s name, making it simply the United Nations Children’s Fund. UNICEF has helped save more children’s lives than any other humanitarian organization.●What is UNICEF USA’s mission?We work for the survival, protection and development of children worldwide through fundraising, advocacy and education.●How can I volunteer for UNICEF in the field?UNICEF secures volunteers, who must have at least a Bachelor’s Degree and two-to-five years’ experience in their field of expert knowledge and skills, through the United Nations Volunteers program.If you are a citizen of the United States and meet the above standards, send your résumé to the United Nations Volunteers program at the following address for more information: United Nations Volunteers, c/o Peace Corps, 1111 20th St. N.W., Washington, DC 20526.If you are interested in volunteering within the United States, click here to learn how.●May I donate non-cash goods for emergency relief?Some have asked us about donating goods here in the U.S. for emergency relief efforts abroad. While we are grateful for the desire to help, UNICEF does not accept non-cash goods. Why?Financial donations are the fastest and most efficient way to provide assistance. Donated goods must be screened, sorted, stored and transported. UNICEF pre-positions supplies to speed up delivery and sources them locally whenever possible.A blanket donated today can take weeks, or even months, to arrive abroad. A dollar donated today, however, will be arranged tomorrow to buy lifesaving supplies.We also purchase supplies in large quantities to save money. That means your financial donation will get more supplies to more kids in need than your donation of non-cash goods.60. Which of the following statements is true of UNICEF USA?A. It no longer provides emergency fund.B. It is localized to focus on national affairs.C. It was originally created for kids’ education.D. It supports children growth at home and abroad.61. If you want to be a UNICEF USA volunteer, _________ is NOT a must.A. required education backgroundB. related working experienceC. American nationalityD. educational program participation62. Financial donation is a better choice than non-cash goods because of __________.A. the good willB. operational efficiencyC. local assistanceD. the reliable supply【答案】60-62：DDB( C )Scientists in Antarctica have recorded, for the first time, unusually warm water beneath a glacier (冰川) the size of Florida that is already melting and contributing to a rise in sea levels.The researchers, working on the Thwaites Glacier, recorded water temperatures at the base of the ice of more than 2℃, above the normal freezing point. Critically, the measure ments were taken at the glacier’s grounding line, the area where it transforms from resting wholly on bedrock to spreading out on the sea as ice shelves. It is unclear how fast the glacier is getting worse: Studies have forecast its total collapse in a century or in a few decades. The presence of warm water in the grounding line may support estimates at the faster range.That is worthy of attention because the Thwaites, along with the Pine Island Glacier and several smaller glaciers, acts as a brake on part of the much larger West Antarctic Ice Sheet, which if melted, would raise the world’s oceans by more than a meter over centuries, an amount that would put many coastal cities underwater.“Warm waters in this part of the world, as remote as they may seem, should serve as a warning to all of us about the potential terrible changes to the planet brought about by climate change,” said David Holland, director of New York University’s Environmental Fluid Dynamics Laboratory.Glaciologists have previously raised alarm over the presence of warm water melting the Thwaites from below. This is the first time, though, that warm waters have been measured at the glacier’s grounding line.To observe activity beneath the glacier, Dr. Holland’s team drilled a hole — about 30 centimeters wide and 600 meters deep —from the surface to the bottom and then placed equipment that measures water temperature and ocean turbulence, or the mixing of freshwater from the glacier and salty ocean water. Collecting the data took about 96 hours in subzero weather. Warm waters beneath the Thwaites are actively melting it, the team found.While scientists may not yet be able to definitively predict how soon glaciers like the Thwaites will melt, human-caused climate change is a key factor. The b iggest predictor of “how much ice we will lose and how quickly we will lose it,” Dr. Holland said, “is human action.”63. What does warm water found in the glacier’s grounding line indicate?A. Sea levels should be remeasured.B. It may take a century for the glacier to melt.C. The grounding line is getting shorter.D. The glacier might disappear sooner.64. The Thwaites and other glaciers are important because __________.A. they hold back iceB. they are extremely largeC. they are located at bedrocksD. they are collapsing65. What can be inferred from the passage about the researchers’ viewpoints?A. We can predict how much ice can be kept.B. Human beings are to blame for the loss of ice.C. Glaciers serve a more important purpose than expected.D. More data needs to be collected to support the estimates.66. What is the passage mainly about?A. The efforts made to avoid the presence of warm water.B. The alarm voiced on the worsening situation of glaciers.C. The tools employed to measure the temperature of Antarctica.D. The prediction based on a scientific study of the grounding line.【答案】63-66: DABBSection C。

【题文】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.DesertificationDesertification is one of the world’s most alarming processes of en vironmental degradation(退化). The issue is often unclear, however, by a common misperception: that it’s a “natural” problem of advancing deserts in faraway developing countries. In fact, desertification is about land degradation: the loss of the land’s biol ogical productivity, caused by man-made factors and climate change.Each year, desertification and drought cause an estimated $42 billion in lost agricultural production. The risks of desertification are sufficient and clear. It contributes to food insecurity, hunger and poverty, and can give rise to social, economic and political tensions that can cause conflicts, further poverty and land degradation. The great urgency of this challenge led the United Nations General Assembly to state 2006 to be the International Year of Deserts and Desertification (IYDD). It is a strong reminder of the urgent need to address the far-reaching implications of this problem. United Nations General Secretary recently summarizes in this way: “I look forward to working with Gover nments, civil society, the private section, international organizations and others to focus attention on this crucial issue, and to reverse the trend of desertification and set the world on a safer, more sustainable path of development.”The IYDD also presents a golden opportunity to get the message across strongly and effectively that desertification is a global problem which we ignore at our risk. It is important to recognize that dry-lands are home to some of the most magnificent ecosystems of this world. These unique natural habitats have been home to some of the world’s oldest civilizations. They stand like open-air museums, bearing witness to bygone eras. The Year will therefore also celebrate the delicate beauty and unique inheritance of the world’s d eserts._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________【答案】Desertification means land degradation due to man-made causes and climate change. It may cause problems like conflicts, poverty and land degradation. So 2006 was stated to be IYDD as a reminder of the serious problem and call for joint efforts to develop the world sustainably. The IYDD also reminds us of the risk, the beauty and civilization/inheritance of the deserts.【解析】【分析】本文为概要写作，简言之就是对所读过的文章简要概括，写出文章的中心大意，也可称之为摘要。
