Li Peng, a woolen felt (织物) craftswoman, has found a unique way to preserve the memory of dead pets by creating realistic woolen images.Li's journey into this craft is accidental. During her college years, she majored in e-commerce and worked part time at a pet store. One day, while visiting a website, she came upon a small fox made entirely of wool. Astonished at its delicacy, she set off on a self-taught journey in this art form. In late 2019, Li Peng made the firm decision to start her own business and pursue wool felting as a full-time profession.While a video showcasing the work may only take a few minutes to watch, the actualglass eyes and tiny whiskers (胡须) , each one individually secured by hand. To achieve a vivid effect, she repeatedly sticks layers of wool with a needle, winding the loose fibers together to create solid felted shapes. The key is massive patience.The handcrafted creations satisfy her desire to convey love. The majority of her customers are pet owners who have experienced the loss of their beloved companions. They send Li photographs and even their pets' hair, hoping to freeze the appearance of their furry friends through her wool felting models. Fascinated by the deep bond between people and their pets, she is committed to grabbing and investing these emotions in her artworks. And it turns out that the career is a success. Orders are often scheduled for one year later, and she has gained substantial attention through social media.Reflecting on her work, Li expresses her desire to create meaningful pieces using thewarm material, offering a heartfelt gift of warmth to the beautiful souls of this world. 4．What inspired Li Peng to take up wool felting as a career?A.A temporary job at a pet shop.B. Her self-study art course.C.A discovery of an alternative to fiber.D.A woolen creation online.5．What does the underlined word "intricate" mean in paragraph 3?A.Confusing.B.Efficient.plicated.D.Effortless.6．Who are Li Peng's primary clients?A.Conservationists of animal rights.B.Individuals fond of furry toys.C.Distributors providing personalized service.D.People suffering from pet loss.7．What's the crucial factor behind Li Peng's success?A.Fair product pricing.B.Human-pet attachment.C.Smart network marketing.D.Hunger for a fine reputation.Think you have a good grasp of English? Good. Read the six sentences below, then.Sentence 1: The old man the boat.Sentence 2: The cotton clothing is made of grows in Mississippi.Sentence 3: Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.Sentence 4: Fat people eat collects.Sentence 5: The man who hunts ducks out on weekends.Sentence 6: The complex houses married and single soldiers and their families.Linguists (语言学家) call these "garden path sentences", which take you by the hand and lead you down a winding path to a dead end. Despite this, they're all grammatically correct. Let's see why.Sentence 1: The old man the boat.Besides sounding like a rejected Hemingway title, this sentence is indeed grammatically correct thanks to some well-placed homonyms—words that share the same spellings but have different meanings. Homonym 1 here is "old", used as a noun, meaning "old people"; homonym 2 is "man", used as a verb, meaning "to serve in/on". With that in mind, the sentence means "The old people serve on the boat".Sentence 2: The cotton clothing is made of grows in Mississippi.At first read, you'd think "is made of" is the main verb of this sentence. But it's not. The simplest form of this sentence is "The cotton grows in Mississippi"; confusingly, "clothing ismade of" is used to tell us what cotton we're talking about. This sentence would make way more sense if written "The cotton that clothing is made of grows in Mississippi", but English allows us to remove certain conjunctions like "that", with its meaning maintained.Sentence 3: Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.The first half of this sentence is easy to catch. So when dealing with the other half, people usually follow the structure of the first half, and it'd be understood as "fruits fly like bananas". This is obviously unreasonable. Only when people rethink can they recognize the true meaning of the sentence. Therefore, such sentences manage to make people ignore the structure of the sentence itself, thus departing from its original meaning.Come on! Take a walk down the garden path with the rest of the sentences.8．What's the characteristic of "garden path sentences" according to linguists?A.Misleading but error-free.B.Accurate and plain.C.Improperly-worded and meaningless.D.Ungrammatical but comprehensible. 9．Which word is an example similar to the homonym of "man" in sentence 1?A. "grows" in sentence 2.B. "eat" in sentence 4.C. "hunts" in sentence 5.D. "houses" in sentence 6.10．Which of the following correctly interprets "fruit flies like a banana" in sentence 3?A. "fruit flies" refers to a sort of insect.B. "flies" serves as the verb of the sentence.C. "flies like" explains what fruit is talked about.D. "like" has the same meaning as the "like" before it.11．What can be the troublemaker in sentence 4?A.The ill-placed verbsB.The removal of "that".C.The grammar mistakes.D.The lack of noun behind "collects".Social media provides materialists with ideal opportunities to compare themselves with others, which makes them subject to passive and addictive user behavior. This stresses them out and, ultimately, leads to low life satisfaction, according to a new study.The researchers headed by Dr. Phillip Ozimek from Germany employed 1,230 people for their online survey. In order to participate, respondents had to visit at least one social media channel at least once a week. On average, the participants stated they spent just over two hours a day on social media.The team used six different questionnaires to determine the extent to which the participants had a materialistic attitude and tended to compare themselves with others,whether they used social media more actively or passively, whether they were addicted to social media, how stressed and how satisfied they were with their lives."The data showed a stronger materialistic approach goes hand in hand with a tendency to compare oneself with others, "points out Ozimek. This comparison is easy to make on social media, primarily through passive use-by looking at the content posted by other users. Materialism and passive use were also linked to addictive use of social media."Users are constantly thinking about the respective channels and fear they're missing out on something if they aren't online, "explains Ozimek. "This in turn leads to poorer mental health like stress. The final link in the chain is reduced life satisfaction.""Overall, the study provides further evidence that the use of social media is associated with risks, especially for people with a highly materialistic mindset, "says the psychologist. "This is particularly worrying, because social media can stimulate and increase materialistic values through influencer marketing. Meanwhile, the platforms attract materialists anyway, as they're a perfect way to satisfy materialistic needs.""It's definitely a good idea to be aware of the amount of time you spend on social media and to reduce it," recommends Ozimek, who advises against giving up social media completely. "If you did, you're likely to over-correct." He also suggests recording materialism and social media use in patients undergoing treatment for mental health disorders. "While these factors are often irrelevant, they can be a starting point for additional interventions patients can try out at home."12．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.The Virtual World, the Real DangerB.Showing Superiority Causes Heavy Media UseC.More Social Media Materialism, Less HappinessD.Materialistic Values: A Stepping Stone to Discontent13．To qualify for the survey, a participant must ______.A.be a big spenderB.specialize in data analysisC.be a regular social media userD.upload web surfing history14．What kind of feeling is expressed by Ozimek in paragraph 6?A.Pessimism.B.Sympathy.C.Shock.D.Concern.15．What does Ozimek propose concerning using social media?A.Restricting the duration.B.Logging onto well-rated websites.C.Abandoning it for good.D.Prohibiting patients from using it.二、七选五16．French parenting isn't perfect, but there's a lot we can learn from this kind but no-nonsense style of parenting.French children are allowed to handle difficult things themselves. ①_____ The early years are when they discover all the cool ways their new body works and how to use it. To encourage this autonomy, French parents treat children more like adults-in-training than helpless babies. They believe kids feel confident when they're able to deal with things on their own.Fearful of hurting feelings, American parents tend to praise every child for everything.②_____However, all that praise eventually turns out to be pointless. By contrast, French adults give children appropriate praise, thus allowing them to feel a true sense of achievement and take pride in what they learn.Painful experiences are the best learning opportunities and sheltering children from this fact of life will merely delay their emotional development. French doctors never say "sorry" when giving kids shots. The French believe undergoing hurts is part of life and that there's no reason to apologize for that. ③_____Plus, the expectation of eye contact and a polite hello starts from the minute French children can say hello. They know saying "hello" and good manners are non-negotiable. Teaching them about that will benefit them for a lifetime. ④_____ Be patient with little ones as they learn.All the above feels easier said than done, especially as a tired parent facing an intolerable child. ⑤_____ Your efforts will end up with children's better behaviour overall.A. They mean what they say.B. This isn't to say it'll come easily.C. It might save tears in the short term.D. They wish children to suffer sometimes.E. Bearing a few blow-ups is worthwhile, though.F. Parents have to spare them such psychological discomfort.G. "Me do it!" is little kids' favorite phrase and for good reason.三、完形填空（15空）In Lincoln Elementary School, the students went wild with excitement on hearing theusing baking soda (小苏打) and vinegar (醋) .

第一部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分,满分37.5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。
AWith over 2.4 million visitors every year, Cinque Terre is one of the most-visited regions in Italy. Cinque Terreis truly special. The five candy-colored fishing villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Comiglia, Vemazza, and Monterosso al Mare are built into cliffs over the clean and brightly-shining Ligurian Sea. Whether you’re visiting the region for a few days or a few weeks, these are the experiences you should add to your trip pleasure.★Take a scenic hike.It’s easy to visit each of the attractive villages on foot. The most popular hike is the coastal path Sentiero Azzuro.It links all five villages and offers extremely beautiful scenery of the sea, architecture and vineyards(葡萄园). It takes about six hours to go across, with short breaks, but most people are going to stop in the villages for food and swimming.★Eat seafood in a cone(锥形).Dessert lovers might think that Italian ice-cream is the best thing to be served in a cone but make room for seafood cones as well. Thanks to its coastal location, Cinque Terre is full of seafood restaurants.★Get on a boat.If the weather cooperates, take the time to get out on the water. The villages look very beautiful from a boat. The cheapest and easiest way is to jump on the public ferry from one of the villages to the next, but these boats are often crowded. It’s far more relaxing to take a private cruise, which departs from the docks in Riomaggiore, Manarola, Vemazza, and Monterosso al Mare.★Take the train.Cinque Terre’s train system is one of the most scenic in Europe. The high-speed train runs through each of thefive villages every 20 minutes or so. And the whole line is directly on the coast, offering lovely views of the Ligurian Sea and rocky cliffs.1. What is special about the five candy-colored fishing villages?A. Their special location.B. Their long history.C. Their delicious foods.D. Their friendly villagers.2. What is the favorite food for the hikers in the five villages?A. Italian noodles.B. Italian ice-cream.C. Italian wines.D. Seafood cones.3. What is the best way to enjoy the beautiful scenery and delicious food?A. Taking a private ferry to the villages.B. Walking with short breaks on the coast.C. Taking a scenic hike along the coastal path.D. Taking the train running through the villages.BIt can be a real struggle trying to learn a new language. I had always enjoyed learning languages in school, but only recently did I start learning German. I found that I could understand and learn individual words easily, but when it came to literature, I really struggled. That was when my tutor at university suggested reading some children’s books printed in the target language.At first, I felt a bit silly going on a hunt for a book designed for someone half my age, but then I realized thateveryone has to start somewhere. As children, we are given these basic texts to familiarize our brains with certain vocabulary and writing structures, and from there, we can learn and develop. I started with books which are taught to us as children in the UK. I managed to find Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl.The beauty of reading books that were introduced to you as a child is that you are already familiar with the plot.As a result, you can work out some of the definitions of words with your prior knowledge of the story. At first, I used to read with the book in one hand and a dictionary in the other, but this method did not work well for me. The method I would recommend is to read a chapter of your chosen children’s book and at the end of that chapter, highlight the words you do not know and then look up the definitions. If you can wait a bit before you use a dictionary, you may be surprised what you can get merely from the context of the sentence in the story. Additionally, a lot of children’s books have pictures which may give you a clue as to what or to whom the passage is referring.4. Why was the author advised to read children’s books?A. She was weak in reading great works.B. She was slow to learn language.C. She liked children’s literature.D. She couldn’t remember any words.5. What can be got from children’s books according to the passage?A. V ocabulary and listening skills.B. Learning methods.C. Words and structures.D. Designing skills.6. What surprised the author while reading children’s books?A. Grasping the context from the pictures.B. Looking up the definitions of words from a dictionary.C. Getting familiar with the plots of the story.D. Understanding the words simply from the context.7. What can be the best title of the passage?A. Reading Children’s BooksB. The Way of Learning LanguagesC. The Method of Using DictionaryD. My Good Reading HabitsCWith self-driving vehicle technology rapidly advancing, many companies are turning to autonomous robots forthe final leg of the delivery process, from the store or local distribution center to the customer. The latest to join the trend is e-commerce giant Amazon. Following a successful eight-month test run in SnohomishCounty, Washington, the company’s Scout robots have been making the rounds of Irvine, California, since August 6, 2019.The six-wheeled Scout is about the size of a large cooler with the capacity to carry small or medium-sized packages. The battery-powered vehicle, which moves at a regular walking pace, has been programmed to avoid pedestrians, animals, and unexpected obstacles, such as garbage cans. Its powerful sensors can also detect the movement of a car backing out of a driveway.To accelerate Scout’s development and bring it nationwide sooner, the company has created several detailed virtual maps of American suburbs and conducted trial deliveries to homes there.Though Amazon has not shown how Scout ensures the delivery is picked up by the right person, it most likelyrequires the customer to apply a unique code, texted to them prior to the delivery, to unlock the store box. Also unclear is the number of deliveries Scout can complete before its battery needs to be recharged. Though the initial tests are being conducted with a human for company, the robot will be autonomous in the future. Its location, however, will be tracked at all times-if someone attempts to steal Scout, Amazon employees will be instantly sensed.However, the eco-friendly robots are unable to climb stairs or open gates, which means that they can only reachconsumers who live on the ground level. Additionally, the robots are unable to leave packages at the front door if the customers are not home. Whether these problems get resolved remains to be seen. For now, it appears that humans will still be needed to achieve the ever-growing demand for home and office deliveries.8.What are many companies developing autonomous robots for?A. Final tests.B. The so-called last mile.C. Robots’ safety.D. Delivery speed.9.What can we infer about Scout from paragraph 2?A. It looks like a cooler.B. It adjusts its speed accordingly.C. Its sensors play a key role.D. It will be widely used soon.10.What does the underlined phrase "prior to" in paragraph 4 mean?A. beforeB. afterC. in front ofD. due to11.From which is the text probably taken?A. A biology textbook.B. A health magazine.C. A newspaper.D. A travel brochure.DWood has many great characteristics that make it the perfect building material. It is cheap, durable(耐用的), easily available, and most importantly, environmentally sustainable. The one thing it is not, is transparent(透明的).Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholm’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology, the material may even beable to add that feature to its already impressive list.Lead researcher Dr. Lars Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after learning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices.The team began by pulling out the wood’s lignin (木质素). The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物) and baked at a temperature of 158F for four hours. The result was a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also, almost transparent. The researchers were able to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.While scientists have previously created a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips,the transparent wood is the first one being considered for large scale applications. The researchers, who revealed their findings in Biomacromolecules on April 11, picture using the transparent wood in buildings to allow for more natural light, or to create windows that let in the desired amount of light without sacrificing privacy.Wood that allows light to pass through could lead to a brighter future for homes and buildings. Berglund also thinks the wood could play a significant role in the design of solar panels. The semi-transparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor, thus resulting in better solar efficiency.Additionally, substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturersimprove their carbon footprint and lower the cost. They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufacturing process so that the transparent material is cost-effective to make and easy to use.12. What does the underlined part "that feature" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Cheapness.B. Durability.C. Sustainability.D. Transparency.13. Which of the following is not the process in which the transparent wood is made?A. Dip the wood into a polymer.B. Reduce the amount of the polymer.C. Make the wood lignin-free.D. Bake the wood for some time.14. What’s the purpose of using the transparent wood in buildings?A. To protect privacy.B. To scale out applications.C. To get more natural light.D. To observe more clearly.15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The bright future of the transparent wood.B. The wood’s role in the design of solar panels.C. The disadvantages of the currently used glass.D. Solar energy manufacturers’ carbon footprint.第二节(共5小题：每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

A key skill set for success is persistence （毅力）, characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence.BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time, thepersistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school.“There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers,” Padilla-Walker said. “This research also helps to prove that characteris tics such as persistence -- which can be taught -- are key to a child’s life success.”Researchers determined that dads need to practice an “authoritative” parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian: rigid, demanding or controlling. Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed ;children are given an appropriate level of autonomy（自主权）.In the study, about 52 percent of the dads exhibited above-average levels of authoritative parenting. Key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop persistence, which leads to better outcomes in school.This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is an avenue of future research.28. What is speci al about the BYU professors’ study?A. It centered on fathers’ role in parenting.B. It was based on a number of large families.C. It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles.D. It aimed to improve kids’ achievement in school.29. What would an authoritative father do when raising his children?A. Ignore their demands.B. Make decisions for them.C. Control their behaviors.D. Explain the rules to them.30. Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers?A. Single parents.B. Children aged from 11 to 14.C. Authoritarian fathers.D. Mothers in two-parent homes.31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Three Characteristics of Authoritative FathersB. Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in FutureC. Children Tend to Learn Determination from FatherD. Family Relationship Influences School PerformanceDWhen you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion (时装) enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria (海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made in to clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur ---unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species (物种). It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us." says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades，but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s，the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashion. Model Paige Morgan says，“To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that’s going to be a massive thing,at least here in New York.” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She’s trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.32. What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A. To promote guilt-free fur.B. To expand the fashion market.C. To introduce a new brand.D. To celebrate a winter holiday.33. Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A. Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B. Nutria are an endangered species.C. Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D. Nutria are illegally hunted.34. What does the underlined word “collapsed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Boomed.B. Became mature.C. Remained stable.D. Crashed.35. What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A. It’s formal.B. It’s risky.C. It’s harmful.D. It’s traditional.第二节7选5（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据下面短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
