He had saved upmoney to pay for his tuition, but when he received the college's President's Scholarship, he decided to take his savings and donate it to other students in need.“It comes from my family education and faith," Nelson said. "I've always lived by strong principles as far as being a cheerful giver andhaving an open handwhen it comes to giving back so I feel like that really motivated me.”SEMO's President's Scholarship is the school’s most celebrated, and is only awarded to five top students annually. Nelsonsaid he sat down and outlined how a scholarship could work to help future students who need financial assistance for college. Originally the plan was to give away $ 1,000 the one time, but then he met up with his counselor (顾问), Yolanda Curry, to work outa game plan.“I wasn't expecting it at all!” Curry said. "He told me he had a great idea and wanted to share it with me. I could tell he was really excited.Nelson, in association with his high school, set up the Joshua Nelson Leaders In Action Scholarship fund. Each year, $1,000 will be awarded to a senior. The money will come from donations, of which there have been $16,000 so far — for a total of $17,435 at last count, according to the school.

It is going very smoothly.CEarthquakes are a natural disaster—except when they're man-made. The oil and gas industry has forcefully used the technique known as hydraulic fracturing (水力压裂法) to destroy sub-surface rock and liberate the oil and gas hiding there. But the process results in large amounts of chemical-filled waste water. Horizontal drilling (水平钻孔) for oil can also produce large amount of natural, unwanted salt water. The industry deals with this waste water by pumping it into deep wells.On Monday, the US Geological Survey published for the first time an earthquake disaster map covering both natural and “induced” quakes. The map and a report show that parts of the central United States now face a ground-shaking disaster equal to the famously unstable terrain (不稳定地形) of California.Some 7 million people live in places easily attacked by these man-made quakes, the USGS said The list of places at highest risk of man-made earthquakes includes Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Ohio and Alabama. Most of these earthquakes are ly small, in the range of magnitude (震级) 3, but some have been more powerful, including a magnitude 5.6 earthquake in 2011 in Oklahoma that was connected towaste water filling.Scientists said they do not know ifthere is an upper limit on the magnitude of man-made earthquakes; this is an area of active research Oklahoma has had prehistoric earthquakes as powerful as magnitude 7.It's not immediately clear whether this new research will change industry practices, or even whether it will surprise anyone in the areas of newly supposed danger. In Oklahoma, for example, the natural rate of earthquakes is only one or two a year, but there have been hundreds since hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, with the waste water filling, became common in the last ten years.8. What kind of human activities can cause earthquakes?A. The man-made produced waste water in the factories.B. The process of digging deep wells in those poor areas.C. The advanced techniques used to deal with waste water.D. The oil or gas industry's work connected with the earth.9. What does the underlined word “induced” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Man-made.B. Reduced.C. Newly-built.D. Controlled.10. How much magnitude can man-made earthquakes reach?A. It's been said as small as magnitude 3.B. It has been said as high as magnitude 7.C. It's being studied without a final conclusion.D. It has risen by an average of magnitude 5. 6.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Natural Earthquakes in America Are Disappearing NowB. 7 Million Americans at Risk of Man-Made EarthquakesC. Time for Oil and Gas Industry Change Their Working PracticeD. More Often Earthquakes as Powerful as Magnitude 7 in AmericaDWhy doesHaitiso tend to have fatal earthquakes? Earthquakes have been causing huge damage inHaitisince at least the 18th century. The capital city has been destroyed twice in 19 years. The 21st century has beenno more kind.The Earth’s outer shell is made tip of tectonic plates (构造板块) that move.Haitisits near the crossing of twotectonic plaits that make up the Earth’s outer shell. Earthquakes can occur when those plates move against each other and create friction (摩擦力).Haitiis also overpopulated. Plus, many of its buildings are designed to resist hurricanes but not earthquakes. Those buildings can survive strong winds bat are easy to fail down when the ground shrikes. Poor building practices can also play arole.“I think it’s important to recognize that there’s no such thing as a natural disaster,” said Wendy Bohon, a geologist. “What you have is a natural disaster that comes with a weak architecture system. We do know that earthquakes like this can cause huge damage because ofthefault,” said Wendy. “And it’s quite a significant risk in places that don’t have the construction practices to resist the shaking.”Construction of more earthquake-resistant buildings remains a challenge inHaiti, which is the poorest nation in theWestern Hemisphere. “While there have been some success stories of Haitians building more earthquake-resistant structures, the country has lacked a centralized effort to do so,” said Mark Schuller, a professor of anthropology and nonprofit and NGO studies atNorthernIllinoisUniversity.Haiti’s government has become increasingly weak, while non-governmental organizations only focus on their own projects.“There is technical knowledge inHaiti, There are trained architects. There are cityplanners. That’s not the problem,” Schuller said. “The problem is a lack of funding for coordination (协调), and lack of political will from donors to organizations providing aid.”12. Which factor causing the huge damage is highlighted?A. Its overpopulation.B. Its weak government.C. Its geographical location.D. Its weak architecture system.13. What does the underlined part “the fault” in paragraph 4 refer to?A Lacking political will to provide aid.B. Lacking hurricane-resistant; buildings.C. Lacking earthquake-resistant buildings.D. Sitting on the crossing of two tectonic plates.14. What’s Schuller’s attitude towardsHaiti’s government?A Supportive. B. Critical.C. Indifferent.D. Interested.15. Which of the following can be a problem according tothe last paragraph?A. Fund and will.B. Skilled architects.C. Urban designers.D. Technology and money.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。

2019-2020学年东莞市第四高级中学高三英语模拟试题及答案解析第一部分阅读(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AThe Internet can provide a wealth of educational resources for small children, if you know where to look.Enchanted LearningEnchanted learning is a great website for children, and I know several teachers who rely on it for materials for their classrooms. Most of the information is free, but for $ 20.00 per year, you can purchase a membership that allows you to have access to the site without the advertising. The pages here are great. There are color1 ed pages and worksheets for toddlers (学步儿童) and school-age children.StarfallStarfall is another good educational website for small children. Teachers often use this website in classrooms. It emphasizes reading skills for early learners. The website is aimed at first-grade-level learners, but it has tools that can help all children from pre-K to second grade. The website has reading activities, worksheets to download, and a store where you can purchase educational materials for your children.Sesame Street WorkshopKids loveSesame Street, and it is always educational. This is one of the funniest websites online for children because it is very well animated and has great sound effects. The website has games and stories for small kids, and they can create letters at the post office and mail them to their favorite characters.1. Why does Enchanted Learning offer purchasing memberships?A. Charging for the information.B. Charging for downloading materials.C. Giving access to the site without the ads.D. Providing unlimited search for more pages.2. Where can you buy educational materials for your children?A. Enchanted LearningB. StarfallC. Sesame Street WorkshopD. Colored pages3. What is the purpose of this text?A. To introduce.B. To discuss.C. To persuade.D. To educate.BThe World Wildlife Fund (WWF) says more than half of the world’s wildlife population has been lost, whichthe conservation group says has placed the health of the planet at risk.The WWF recently released its 10th Flagship Living Planet Report. The group warns the condition of the world's animals is worse than its earlier reports showed, indicating worldwide action is needed.The WWF is worried about the loss of and damage to Earth’s environment. The report provides information about more than 10,000 animal populations from 1970 to 2010. These populations are called “vertebrate species,” or animals with backbones — like fish, birds, mammals, amphibians and reptiles. The report shows these populations have dropped by 52 percent in just 40 years. It warns freshwater species have fallen by 76 percent, which is almost twice the loss of land and ocean species. Most of these losses are in the tropics, with the biggest drop inLatin America.Marco Lambertini, the WWF’s International Director-General said, “This is about losing natural habitats. This is aboutconvertingforests, grasslands, and wetlands into agriculture mainly, and it is about unsustainable use of wildlife. Illegal hunting has been actually increasing over the last 10 years, which definitely a driving force for extinction, particularly of large species.”The report also notes what it calls the world’s “Ecological Footprint”, that is, the effect of human activities on the planet. Mr. Lambertini says there has been an increase in carbon dioxide gases and the pouring of nitrogen into oceans and rivers from fertilizers used in agriculture, which certainly cannot continue.“We are consuming on average every year about the equivalent of about 1.5, one and a half times the resources available to the planet. That means we are cutting trees more quickly than they can be restored. We are fishing the oceans more quickly than fishing stocks can reproduce, and we are emitting in the atmosphere more CO2than the natural systems can actually absorb, which is clearly not sustainable.”Mr. Lambertini warns climate change affects almost everyone on the planet and that whole species may disappear if the world does not reduce the effects of humans on the climate.4. According to the passage, what kind of species faces the biggest drop in population?A. Land and ocean species.B. Animals with backbones.C. Freshwater species inLatin America.D. Freshwater species in the tropics.5. All the following can contribute to the loss of world’s wildlife population EXCEPT ________.A. turning wildlife habitats into agriculture land.B. making sustainable use of wildlife.C. hunting illegally.D. emitting CO2 gases and pouring nitrogen.6. Which does the underlined word “converting” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Conserving.B. Conveying.C. Exchanging.D. Transforming.7. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. Marco is much concerned about human’s current behaviors towards wildlife.B. what the planet provides now can satisfy human’s sustainable development.C. more than half of the world’s wildlife population has been lost.D. if humans reduce the effects on the climate, the whole species will not disappear.CThe outbreak of the novel corona virus pneumonia (NCP) has disrupted the lives and work of nearly every Chinese person. However, a new trend has been on the rise: many have turned themselves into livestreaming users orfollowers.According to Questmobile, a professional big data intelligence services provider in China, the audience for Douyin, Kuaishou and other livestreaming platforms surged to 574 million during the Spring Festival holiday, up 35 percent from 2019.Confined at home, away from their friends and loved ones, people turn to livestreaming to reach out to the world. For them livestreaming can help them share their lives and interest with a global audience, which will give them the sense of being “in the moment”. Even as viewers, they can also engage immediately with livestreamers by commenting and making suggestions.“When I comment on the livestreaming videos, I’m not simply an audience member, but also an active part of the program. That gives me a sense of engagement,” an Internet user named Wang Hao told People’s Daily.Livestreaming is not only for fun, but also a new tool for many businesses. Affected by the pandemic, many businesses had to stop their sales in physical stores. To meet their business goals and survive during these trying times, many chose to livestream to revive their businesses.Joyoung, a leading maker of small kitchen appliances, is a good example. The company not only added a number of broadcasts each day to advertise their products, but also shared the menus that were beneficial tohealth. “The responses to our livestreaming shows have been well beyond expectations,” Kang Li, who oversees the company’s livestreaming unit, told China daily. “It’s a natural opportunity to truly bond with our followers.”Like it or not, livestreaming is likely to go mainstream in China for both entertainment and business.8. What is the purpose of writing the second paragraph?A. To introduce some popular livestreaming platforms in China.B. To report data on the development of livestreaming in 2019.C. To show that Chinese people spend too much time on livestreaming apps.D. To prove that livestreaming are becoming increasingly popular in China.9. What does Wang Hao think of commenting on livestreaming?A. It is boring to make comments.B. It is the only way to share viewers’ lives.C. It makes people feel involved in the stream.D. It helps livestreamers improve themselves.10. What do paragraphs 5&6 mainly talk about?A. Livestreaming replaced physical stores in many areas.B. Many businesses turned to livestreaming platform for marketing.C. Livestreaming platforms faced challenges during the pandemic.D. Livestreaming platforms made changes to their services.11. How does the author feel about thefuture of livestreaming?A. Positive.B. Uncertain.C. Disappointed.D. Confused.DMost people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1,500 B.C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world’s population is left-handed.Why are there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person’s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a person’s hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of thebrain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed, and studies have found that left-handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs.No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed instead of left-handed. Scientists have found that almost 40% of the people become left-handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born. However, this doesn’t happen to everyone, so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left-handed. One idea is that people usually get right-handed from their parents. If a person does not receive the gene(基因) for right-handedness, he / she may become either right-handed or left-handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with.Though right-handedness is more common than left-handedness, people no longer think left-handed people are strange or unusual. A long time ago, left-handed children were made to use their right hands like other children, but today they don’t have to.12. After studying works of art made at different times in history, the scientists found _______.A. the art began from 1,500B.C.B. the works of art ended in the 1950sC. most people shown in the works of art are right-handedD. most people shown in the works of art are left-handed13. What is the left hand for most people used to do?A. It’s used to find or hold things.B. It’s used to work with things.C. It’s used to make a person’s eyes work together.D. It’s the centre for thinking and doing problems.14. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. No one really knows what makes a person become right-handed.B.

These two loved each other and played together so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their respective houses.One evening, Brownie’s family noticed that Brownie hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him with no success and by the next week he was still missing.Curiously, Spotty showed up at Brownie’s house alone. Barking and generally pestering (纠缠) Brownie’s human family. Busy with their own lives, they just ignored the nervous little neighbor dog.Continuously, Ted, Brownie’s owner, was disturbed by the angry, determin ed little dog. Spotty followed Ted about, barking insistently, then rushing toward a nearby empty lot and back, as if to say, “Follow me! It’s urgent!”Eventually, Ted followed Spotty to a deserted spot half a mile from the house. There Ted found his beloved Brownie alive, one of his hind legs injured in a steel leg-hold trap. Frightened, Ted now wished he’d taken Spotty’s earlier appeals seriously. Then Ted noticed something quite remarkable.Spotty had done more than simply led Brownie’s human owner to his trapped friend. In a circle around the injured dog, Ted found some dog food and leftovers which were later identified as the remains of every meal Spotty had been fed that week!Spotty had been visiting Brownie regularly, in the hope of keeping his friend alive by giving up his own comfort. Spotty had evidently stayed with Brownie to protect him from hunger and other dangers, and keep his spirits up.Brownie’s leg was treated by a veterinarian (兽医) and he recovered. For many years thereafter, the two families watched the faithful friends chasing each other down that well worn path between their houses.4.

What can we learn from the story?A. Barking dogs seldom bite.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. Love me, love my dog.D. Every dog has its day.CWhen it comes to medical care, many patients and doctors believe “more is better.” But what they do not realize is that overtreatment—too many scans, too many blood tests, too many procedures—may bring harm. Sometimes a test leads you down a path to more and more testing, some of which may be invasive, or to treatment for things that should be left alone.Terrence Power, for example, complained that after his wife learned she had Wegener’s disease, an uncommon disorder of the immune system, they found it difficult to refuse testing recommended by her doctor. The doctor insisted on office visits every three weeks, even when she was feeling well. He frequently ordered blood tests and X-rays, and repeatedly referred her to specialists for even minor complaints. Even when tests came back negative, more were ordered, and she was hospitalized as prevention when she developed a cold. She had as many as 25 doctor visits during one six-month period. The couple was spending about $30,000 a year for her care.After several years of physical suffering and near financial ruin from the medical costs, the couple began questioning the treatment after discussing with other patients in online support groups. “It’s a really hard thing to determine when doctors have crossed the line,” Mr. Power said. “You think she’s getting the best care in the world, but after a while you start to wonder: What is the purpose?” Mr. Power then spoke with his own primary care doctor, who advised him to find a new specialist to oversee Mrs. Power’s care. Under the new doctor’s care, the regular testing stopped and Mrs. Power’s condition stabilized. Now she sees the doctor only four or five times a year.8. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Treatments do not always cause harmful side effects.B. Patients tend to believe more testing is better treatment.C. Too much medical care may not be beneficial to patients.D. Doctors generally recommend office visits that are necessary.9. Which of the following was a problem for Mrs. Power during her medical treatment?A. She had to be hospitalized for three weeks whenever she had a cold.B. When test results showed she was fine, her doctor still ordered more tests.C. She did not have any insurance, so she became penniless because of her illness.D. Her doctor asked her to consult other specialists due to her constant complaints.10. Who does “she” in the third paragraph most likely refer to?A. a doctor.B. a patient.C. Mrs. Power.D. a specialist11. What led to the Powers’ doubt about Mrs. Power’s treatment?A. Knowing about other patients’ treatment.B. The results of her blood tests.C. Mrs. Power’s condition getting worse.D. The advice from Mr. Power’s doctor.DAre you trying to learn a new language in a foreign land? You might be better off if you stopped looking at that picture of your family and friends.New research from Columbia University found that prompting (提示) someone who is learning a new language with images and reminders of their own culture could temporarily ruin everything that the brain was trying to build.When native Chinese students were asked to talk with a Caucasian avatar (白种人的虚拟头像) and a Chinese avatar, their English skills were so different. Simply exposing students to a Chinese person affected their ability to speak English. Subjects who talked with the Chinese version felt more comfortable in their speech, but they produced 11% fewer words per minute. They actually became less fluent speakers.To make sure it wasn't just the avatar, researchers also showed people random images of China while the participants told a story. When pictures of their homeland appeared, fluency dropped 16% and volunteers were 85% more likely to use a translation, for example, calling pistachios“happy nuts”, because that's what the Chinese word for pistachio means.When the students were shown pictures of fish with one swimming ahead of the others, their culture would change how they look at the photo. With Chinese prompts, like photos of the Great Wall or Chinese Dragon, etc. they saw more students thinking that the fish was being chased, while an American prompt, like pictures of Marilyn Monroe or Superman, saw those students believing that it was a leader fish. Why are our cultural symbols Marilyn Monroe and Superman?The bottom line is: when attempting to learn a new culture it is far better to surround yourself with that culture than create an island of the old one.12. Why does the author use a question in the first paragraph?A. To raise a question.B. To arouse readers’ awareness.C. To introduce the topic.D. To tell a story.13. The underlined word“pistachios” in the fourth paragraph refers to ___________.A. a kind of foodB. picturesC. volunteersD. an image14. From the passage we can infer that ___________.A. with Chinese prompts, more students thought that it was a leader fishB. with an American prompt, more students thought that the fish was being chasedC. different images would change with different peopleD. different cultures would affect how students look at the photo15. According to the research, which is a better way for a student in a foreign land to learn a new culture?A. To surround himself with that culture.B. To create an island of the old one.C. To see random images of China.D. To talk with a Caucasian avatar.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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

After a tearless farewell with my daughter, weleft her new dorm room but then in the campus we saw her jogging against the August heat. I quickly rolled down the car window and Sarina didn't miss a step as she turned, nodded at usand waved goodbye. I was in disbelief why the tears hadn't come when we parted on her firstday in university.Our first separation, the day she left my body, was a nightmare of pain and suffering. While all births are amazing, not all women feel amazed about the births. However, our togetherness in the days and months that followed was so sweet that I felt her small body still seemed to be attached to mine. In the years to come, the sound of her feet running across the wooden floors of our house was like the gentle pounding that reminded me my little girl was here and that someday she would run to the paths I couldn't follow.Last year Sarina turned 16 and decided to pursue art in college. She was in excitement about college life with so much to expect but I was uneasy because it would be a long planeride away from home. I tried to imagine what separation would be like, but I couldn't. Separation, although on the horizon, still felt distant.That's why it wasn't until the next morning when I awoke in a house absent of her footsteps that the tears finally came-and wouldn't stop. I understood that Sarina had left the house, and I held onto the memory of her running. When the tears stopped, I was relieved that her body knew what it needed on separation day, and that with our love and support, she had the courage to run into an unfamiliar distance, to glance back, yet to keep moving forward.24. What happened to the author on her daughter's first day in college?A. She burst into tears and had a painful farewell.B. She appeared calm and didn't cry at their departure.C. She asked her daughter to show them around the campus.D. She was cross that her daughter went jogging when they departed.25. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2?A.

To show the strong attachment between mother and daughter.26. Which of the following best describes the author when separation was approaching?A. Excited.B. Worried.C. Relieved.D. Frustrated.27. What can be the most suitable title for the passage?A. A heartbroken separationB. The story of a successful momC. How to deal with homesicknessD. Moving forward with love and supportCA simple, yet powerful UK program has been fighting elderly loneliness by recruiting young adults as volunteers to read to seniors with vision problems and mental diseases.Lily has benefited from the program having her vision "restored" by 15-year-old Amy, a school girl who was paired with Lily through the Reading Friends project. Lily was a librarian and enthusiastic reader who would read "two to three books every week". After developing a terrible disease, however, Lily found herself unable to read or watch television for any lengthof time without her eyes hurting.Not only have Lily's regular reading sessions with Amy helped to reconnect her with her passion for literature, they have also built a strong intergenerational friendship between thetwo ladies. "I chose a book and she would come along and read it to me," Lily said. "But we have only got through two books so far because we end up chatting too much. We have read two historical novels and get on very well."Research shows that reading together can help older people to build social networks and connect with others. Evidence also shows that reading has a positive impact on the elderly's wellbeing and can reduce the risk of developing mental diseases.Rose, a teacher, is responsible for connecting schoolchildren like Amy with the program and she says that it has had an amazing impact on the youngsters. "We have wonderful young people at our school and we wanted to get them into the community," Rose said. "It has been fantastic to see them blossom as well as improving their literacy and socialskills. They are meeting community members like Lily that they are making friendships with, and library staff can help them, not only with education but outside as well."28.What is the main responsibility of volunteers according to the passage?A. Read books to seniors.B. Have a chat with seniors.C. Fight diseases for seniors.D. Make friends with seniors.29. What can we learn from Lily's reading sessions with Amy?A. They benefit Lily a lot by restoring her vision.B. They help Amy pick up her love for literature.C. They help Lily volunteer in the reading project.D. They build up the friendship between two ladies.30. How does the program mostly benefit the elders?A. By reducing elderly loneliness.B. By curing the elders of vision problems.C. By improving their literacy and social skills.D. By enabling them to read books for a long time.31. Where is this text most likely from?A. A diary.B. A guidebook.C. A magazine.D. A novel.DNext time you throw away rotten lettuce or smelly berries you should think about this. Globally, we waste more than a third of the food we produce. That is according to the Food and Agriculture Organization.A group of Swedish graduate students is working to fight that fact. They are in the Food Innovation and Product Design program and have come up with a way to use produce that is about to go to waste. They turn the food into non-perishable (不易腐烂的) powder. It may help people who have limited access to food.They are calling it FoPo Food Powder. It is exactly what it sounds like. It is dried, powdered, shelf-stable fruits and vegetables. The powder can be dropped into relief efforts after natural disasters. Or it can be given out in low-resource areas where fresh food and refrigeration are hard to come by.Ngo, one of the students who developed it, says they are not making somethingground breaking . Powdered food has been around since the early days of astronauts. But they are rethinking the waste and delivery channels. Their development team reached out to farmers and retailers to source fruit."Today a relief bag for humanitarian disasters contains various foods such as strawberry jam, peanut butter and peas in tomato sauce. We think that an easily transported pack of cheap dried food powder with high nutritional value would fit in perfectly," Ngo says. The team has been trying to keep its prices down, too. That would aid low-budget humanitarian groups and non-governmental groups.Freeze-dried food keeps most of the nutritional benefits of raw food. It loses some vitamins and minerals in the drying process. But it is still a good way to get fiber andnutrients.The group are about to start working with the U.N.'s Initiative on Food Loss and Waste. They want to try and reach more people and countries that could benefit.32. Why did the group of Swedish graduates develop the FoPo Food Powder?A. To reduce food waste.B. To cut the cost of food.C. To replace the traditional food.D. To improve the flavor of the food.33. What does the underlined word " ground breaking" in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Additional.B. Reasonable.C. Creative.D. Worthwhile.34. What can we learn about powdered food?A. It is very popular in some poor areas.B. It is an effective way to lower food prices.C. It keeps the nutritional benefits of raw food.D. It provides aids for people in low-resource areas.35. What will the group do according to the last paragraph?A. They are about to cooperate with the U.N_B. They are about to write an Initiative for the U.N_C. They will visit and help more people worldwide.D. They will make great profits from their product.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)While we can't control the COVID-19 0utbreak, we can control how we react to it while keeping ourselves safe as well. 36 .●Assess our personal risk for getting infectedWe can take steps to figure out our own personal risk for developing corona virus: whether there are confirmed cases in our community; whether we've been exposed to them, and whether we have immune or breathing problems. 37 .●Try to limit our news consumption38 . However, there is such a thing as too much news, and constantly reading news updates isn't going to help our anxiety levels. The more we expose ourselves to a scary topic over which we feel limited control, the more we will feel anxious.●39Coronavirus seems scary and it's OK to recognize that our anxiety is normal, while ignoring our stress will only make the anxiety worse. If someone asks us to stop feeling anxious, we can respond with, "Well, what are you doing to be prepared?" If they still insiston minimizing our fears, try to brush them off. Listen to our own voice and gain inner peace from it.●Follow the correct preventive methods to protect against the virusTry to avoid touching our eyes, nose, and mouth. 40 . Wash our hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Doing all of those things can help us feel more in control of the situation, which can help ease our anxiety.If, despite trying these tips, you still feel anxious or that your fears are disturbing yourdaily life, it's not a bad idea to talk to a mental health professional.A. Those steps give us a sense of control over our healthB. Realize that it's natural to be worried about the outbreakC. Of course, the anxiety about the outbreak is understandableD. Do medical cleaning frequently on touched objects and surfacesE. Here is what we can do to manage our anxiety during the outbreakF.

He immediately felt a sharp pain across his left arm, followed by a second strike across his neck and upper back. His goggles (护目镜) fogged and the water around him turned dark with what he thought might have been octopus ink as he struggled back toward the shore."I was confused — it was more of a shock than a fright," said Karlson, "I might have hit on its home." Within a minute, a perfect imprint of an octopus tentacle (触手) appeared on Karlson's neck and back.A former volunteer lifeguard, Karlson rushed back to his hotelroom to find something acidic to put on the wound. All his family could grab was Coca-Cola, which his wife poured over his back and the pain disappeared."The pain went away and more than anything since then, it's been more the physical hit that was painful.... The imprint on my neck is more from the physical hit, and I guess it makes complete sense when you look at the video I took," he said.Karlson said he'd never seen an octopus that close before and watched Netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher" after the incident to learn more about the species."They are beautiful creatures and I really hope this promotes more interest in octopuses as opposed to fear of them. I think this is a fascinating creature with clearly some very strong emotions just like we do as humans," he added.4. When did the octopus attack Karlson?A. When he was swimming in the bay.B. When he was shooting the octopus.C. When he was looking for some fish.D. When he was fighting against the octopus.5. What plays an essential role in reducing Karlson's pain?A. The lifeguard's timely help.B. Karson's wife's quick action.C. The family members' efforts.D. Karlson’s knowledge of first aid.6. What does Karlson learn from his experience?A. The octopus is dangerous.B. People should get away from the octopus.C. People need know more about the octopus.D. The physical hit from the octopus is painful.7. Which of the following might be the best title?A. Pain from Strong AttackB. First Aid for Octopus' StrikeC. Face to Face with Angry OctopusD. Under Sea with Dangerous CreatureCI come to theUnited Statesten year ago. I would always say that I was trying to study, but there were always things like work and my kids that would not allow me to start.Now I realized that those were only excuses. What stopped me was that I was afraid to start studying again. I always believed I would learn by myself.One day, however, my son told me that he was sad because his friends would come over and I didn’t understand them because I didn’t speak English. He was also sad because I could never help him with his homework. That same day, I told myself, “Rocio, you have to start believing in yourself and you will see you can make it.”The next day, I went downtown to look for a big banner (横幅) in front of the school which said that they offered classes for adults. I came in to see if I could join, but the classes were closed already. That night I took the kids to the movies, and on the way back, I told them we would take a new route. I ended up getting lost. That’s the way I foundChaffeyCollege. The following Monday, I went to ask for information. They told me that summer school was starting that week.That’s how I started studying English last summer.

When it runs out, we have a problem.About one out of four people on the planet are facing a shortage of water. Seventeen countries around the world are dealing with high-water stress. This means they are using almost all the water they have access to. Many are dry countries. Some waste much of their water. Some may currently use too much of their groundwater that they should be saving. Several big cities face acute shortages. These include Sao Paulo, Brazil; Chennai, India; and Cape Town, South Africa. A year ago, Cape Town faced nay Zero-the day when all its dams would he dry.Climate change adds to the risk of water shortages. Rainfall is less steady. The water supply becomes less reliable. The days grow hotter. More water evaporates(蒸发)from lakes and rivers even as demand for water increases. By 2030, the number of cities in the high-stress category may have risen to 45 and include almost 470 million people.All over the world, farmers compete with city residents for water. Rich urban places, such as Los Angeles, use too much water for pools and golf courses. But the worst problem is the growth of cities. Bangalore, India, forexample, had a few years with little rain. It built over its many lakes or filled them with city waste. The lakes are no longer the rain water storage tanks they once were. Bangalore now imports water. A lot of the imported water, however, gets lost on the way to Bangalore.To address this issue, what can be done? First, cities can plug leaks in their water distribution system. Wastewater can be recycled. Rain can be harvested and saved for hard times. Lakes and wetlands can be cleaned up and old wells can be restored. And farmers can switch from water-intensive crops like rice to less-thirsty crops like millet(小米).Experts are looking at ways to reduce the number of people on the planet. They are looking at ways to reduce the size of cities. They are looking for ways to encourage people, factories and farmers to use less water.12. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. A quarter of the world's population is living with water shortages.B. Nearly all countries are facing acute water shortages now.C. Underground water should he used to meet the water demand.D. Measures have been taken to deal with the water shortage in India.13. What is the main idea of the third paragraph?A. Rainfall is not as steady as before.B. Climate change may lead to water shortages.C. The water supply relies more on rainfall.D. Hotter weather changes the water demand.14. What can farmers do to deal with water shortage?A. Plug leaks in the water distribution system.B. Clean up lakes and wetlands and restore wells.C. Reduce the number of people in the cities.D. Grow less-water consumption crops instead.15. What will be discussed if the passage continues?A. How to prevent from climate change.B. How to inspire people to save water.C. How to recycle wastewater in citiesD. How to make people get access to clean water.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。

After a tearless farewell with my daughter, we left her new dorm room but then in the campus we saw her jogging against the August heat. I quickly rolled down the car window and Sarina didn't miss a step as she turned, nodded at us and waved goodbye. I was in disbelief why the tears hadn't come when we parted on her first day in university.Our first separation, the day she left my body, was a nightmare of pain and suffering. While all births are amazing, not all women feel amazed about the births. However, our togetherness in the days and months that followed was so sweet that I felt her small body still seemed to be attached to mine. In the years to come, the sound of her feet running across the wooden floors of our house was like the gentle pounding that reminded me my little girl was here and that someday she would run to the paths I couldn't follow.Last year Sarina turned 16 and decided to pursue art in college. She was in excitement about college life with so much to expect but I was uneasy because it would be a long planeride away from home. I tried to imagine what separation would be like, but I couldn't. Separation, although on the horizon, still felt distant.That's why it wasn't until the next morning when I awoke in a house absent of her footsteps that the tears finally came-and wouldn't stop. I understood that Sarina had left the house, and I held onto the memory of her running. When the tears stopped, I was relieved that her body knew what it needed on separation day, and that with our love and support, she hadthe courage to run into an unfamiliar distance, to glance back, yet to keep moving forward.24. What happened to the author on her daughter's first day in college?A. She burst into tears and had a painful farewell.B. She appeared calm and didn't cry at their departure.C. She asked her daughter to show them around the campus.D. She was cross that her daughter went jogging when they departed.25. What is the purpose of Paragraph 2?A. To expect her daughter's bright future.B. To remind herself of her daughter's pounding steps.C. To recall the suffering during her daughter's growth.D. To show the strong attachment between mother and daughter.26. Which of the following best describes the author when separation was approaching?A. Excited.B. Worried.C. Relieved.D. Frustrated.27. What can be the most suitable title for the passage?A. A heartbroken separationB. The story of a successful momC. How to deal with homesicknessD. Moving forward with love and supportCA simple, yet powerful UK program has been fighting elderly loneliness by recruiting young adults as volunteers to read to seniors with vision problems and mental diseases.Lily has benefited from the program having her vision "restored" by 15-year-old Amy, a school girl who was paired with Lily through the Reading Friends project. Lily was a librarian and enthusiastic reader who would read "two to three books every week". After developing a terrible disease, however, Lily found herself unable to read or watch television for any length of time without her eyes hurting.Not only have Lily's regular reading sessions with Amy helped to reconnect her with her passion for literature, they have also built a strong intergenerational friendship between the two ladies. "I chose a book and she would come along and read it to me," Lily said. "But we have only got through two books so far because we end up chatting too much. We have read two historical novels and get on very well."Research shows that reading together can help older people to build social networks and connect with others. Evidence also shows that reading has a positive impact on the elderly's wellbeing and can reduce the risk of developing mental diseases.Rose, a teacher, is responsible for connecting schoolchildren like Amy with the program and she says that it has had an amazing impact on the youngsters. "We have wonderful young people at our school and we wanted to get them into the community," Rose said. "It has been fantastic to see them blossom as well as improving their literacy and social skills. They are meeting community members like Lily that they are making friendships with, and library staff can help them, not only with education but outside as well."28.What is the main responsibility of volunteers according to the passage?A. Read books to seniors.B. Have a chat with seniors.C. Fight diseases for seniors.D. Make friends with seniors.29. What can we learn from Lily's reading sessions with Amy?A. They benefit Lily a lot by restoring her vision.B. They help Amy pick up her love for literature.C. They help Lily volunteer in the reading project.D. They build up the friendship between two ladies.30. How does the program mostly benefit the elders?A. By reducing elderly loneliness.B. By curing the elders of vision problems.C. By improving their literacy and social skills.D. By enabling them to read books for a long time.31. Where is this text most likely from?A. A diary.B. A guidebook.C. A magazine.D. A novel.DNext time you throw away rotten lettuce or smelly berries you should think about this. Globally, we waste more than a third of the food we produce. That is according to the Food and Agriculture Organization.A group of Swedish graduate students is working to fight that fact. They are in the Food Innovation and Product Design program and have come up with a way to use produce that is about to go to waste. They turn the food into non-perishable (不易腐烂的) powder. It may help people who have limited access to food.They are calling it FoPo Food Powder. It is exactly what it sounds like. It is dried, powdered, shelf-stable fruits and vegetables. The powder can be dropped into relief efforts after natural disasters. Or it can be given out in low-resource areas where fresh food and refrigeration are hard to come by.Ngo, one of the students who developed it, says they are not making somethingground breaking . Powdered food has been around since the early days of astronauts. But they are rethinking the waste and delivery channels. Their development team reached out to farmers and retailers to source fruit."Today a relief bag for humanitarian disasters contains various foods such as strawberry jam, peanut butter and peas in tomato sauce. We think that an easily transported pack of cheap dried food powder with high nutritional value would fit in perfectly," Ngo says. The team has been trying to keep its prices down, too. That would aid low-budget humanitarian groups and non-governmental groups.Freeze-dried food keeps most of the nutritional benefits of raw food. It loses some vitamins and minerals in the drying process. But it is still a good way to get fiber and nutrients.The group are about to start working with the U.N.'s Initiative on Food Loss and Waste. They want to try and reach more people and countries that could benefit.32. Why did the group of Swedish graduates develop the FoPo Food Powder?A. To reduce food waste.B. To cut the cost of food.C. To replace the traditional food.D. To improve the flavor of the food.33. What does the underlined word " ground breaking" in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Additional.B. Reasonable.C. Creative.D. Worthwhile.34. What can we learn about powdered food?A. It is very popular in some poor areas.B. It is an effective way to lower food prices.C. It keeps the nutritional benefits of raw food.D. It provides aids for people in low-resource areas.35. What will the group do according to the last paragraph?A. They are about to cooperate with the U.N_B. They are about to write an Initiative for the U.N_C. They will visit and help more people worldwide.D. They will make great profits from their product.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)While we can't control the COVID-19 0utbreak, we can control how we react to it while keeping ourselves safe as well. 36 .●Assess our personal risk for getting infectedWe can take steps to figure out our own personal risk for developing corona virus: whether there are confirmed cases in our community; whether we've been exposed to them, and whether we have immune or breathing problems. 37 .●Try to limit our news consumption38 . However, there is such a thing as too much news, and constantly reading news updates isn't going to help our anxiety levels. The more we expose ourselves to a scary topic over which we feel limited control, the more we will feel anxious.●39Coronavirus seems scary and it's OK to recognize that our anxiety is normal, while ignoring our stress will only make the anxiety worse. If someone asks us to stop feeling anxious, we can respond with, "Well, what are you doing to be prepared?" If they still insiston minimizing our fears, try to brush them off. Listen to our own voice and gain inner peace from it.●Follow the correct preventive methods to protect against the virusTry to avoid touching our eyes, nose, and mouth. 40 . Wash our hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Doing all of those things can help us feel more in control of the situation, which can help ease our anxiety.If, despite trying these tips, you still feel anxious or that your fears are disturbing your daily life, it's not a bad idea to talk to a mental health professional.A. Those steps give us a sense of control over our healthB. Realize that it's natural to be worried about the outbreakC. Of course, the anxiety about the outbreak is understandableD. Do medical cleaning frequently on touched objects and surfacesE. Here is what we can do to manage our anxiety during the outbreakF.
