His entire life was devoted to his art. Unlike many artists of his era, he was successful throughout his career.Due to his mother’s mental illness, Turner spent some of his childhood living with his relatives. He worked as an assistant to various architects. By the age of 13 he was making drawings at home and exhibiting them in his father’s shop window for sale. Turner received a rare honor—one of his paintings was exhibited at the Royal Academy when he was 15 years old. By the time he was 18 he had his own studio.He quickly achieved a fine reputation and was elected an associate of the Royal Academy. In 1802 Turner became a full member. He then began traveling widely in Europe. But Venice wasthe inspiration for some of Turner’s finest works. Wherever he travelled in Venice, he studied the effects of sea and sky in every kind of weather. Instead of merely recording what he saw, Turner translated scenes into a light-filled expression of his own romantic feelings. Turner knew how to create his own paintings from there.Turner had no close friends. He allowed no one to watch him while he painted. He gave up attending the meetings of the academy. None of his acquaintances saw him for months at a time. Turner continued to travel but always alone. He still held exhibitions, but he usually refused to sell his paintings.In 1850 he exhibited for the last time. Turner died at his home in Chelsea on 19 December, 1851. Turner left a large fortune that he hoped would be used to support what he called “decaying artists”. His collection of paintings was given away to his country. At his request he was buried in St. Paul’s Cathedral.24. From the first two paragraphs, we can know Turner _________.A. had little schoolingB. made a living by himselfC. taught himself the art of drawingD. was successful from an early age25. In which aspect was Turner most influenced by Venice according to the text？A. His wide hobby.B. His personal life.C. His own personality.D. His painting technique.26. Which of the following can best describe Turner according to Paragraph 4？A. Productive.B. Optimistic.C. Strange.D. Generous.27. What can we learn from the last paragraph？A. Turner cared about himself more than others.B. Turner donated his works to the country selflessly.C. Turner was warmly welcomed by the youth.D. Turner achieved a huge success after his death.CCommunity Supported Agriculture farms, or CSAs, seek people who pay in advance for fresh vegetables and fruits. One farmer has now introduced his CSA program to a law firm in New York City. The busy lawyers there are loving the service.The Glebocki family has been in the fanning business since 1894. But staying in business is not easy. Farming requires a lot of money for seeds and equipment at the beginning of the growing season. And farmers do not know how much money they will get for their crops at the end of the season. They are also not sure if anyone will buy what they grow. John Glebocki, the current farm owner, has one solution to these problems：Community Supported Agriculture. Every Thursday, John Glebocki and his workers load the truck for the 96-kilometer trip to New York City. The driver and his fresh vegetables drive through the big city streets, then stop at the Winston and Strawn law firm.Victor Barnett and Mikaela Evans-Aziz work at the law firm. “It’s nice to get this fresh produce every Friday. I don’t have to run to the grocery store. We love it. It’s the only fresh food we get in our diets. We have kind of crazy hours, and we look forward to this every week. ”they say.Renee Zimmerman and Rachel Benjamin also work at the firm. They are also loyal CSA customers. “It’s a great way to keep our farmers in business to insure we continue to get fresh produce. Besides, it’s fresh and it’s a little weird that you get it at work.”Martina Owens helped bring the CSA to the firm. One of her goals was to bring people together. She says the program has been a success. And for farmer John Glebocki, the CSA gives some protection from the economic uncertainties of agriculture. He knows what he can grow and sell, and he knows what he will get for his crops. That stability can keep a family farm in business.28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly talking about？A. The development of CSAs.B. The popularity of CSAs.C. The reason why CSAs are launched.D. The difficulty that CSAs are facing.29. What advantage of CSAs do Victor Barnett and Mikaela Evans-Aziz stress？A. The kindness of the farmers.B. The diversity of the produce.C. The cheap price of the produce.D. The convenience they get from it.30. The underlined word “weird” in Paragraph 5 probably means _______.A. terribleB. amazingC. possibleD. usual31. Which of the following statements about CSAs is NOT true ________.A. It has been successful so far.B. It has met many difficulties.C. It helps keep agriculture stable.D. It will have a brilliant future.DHave you ever heard an English teacher say, “Teaching grammar is boring!” Betty Azar has, and she strongly disagrees. “I think that is a misconception—that teaching grammar is a boring thing to do—when teaching grammar, for me, always was the class I looked forward to the most because grammar was just the foundation. It was where you started. From there youdo conversations, you do games, you do communicative interaction, you do all of the wonderful things you do in a second language classroom, but you do it in combination with having a solid foundation of th e structures that they are using.”The common misunderstanding that Ms. Azar sees is that grammar can be taught as a subject, like history or math. Teachers try to get students to memorize rules. Grammar is not just learning rules. It is a way to help students along the way to communication.“If you have a class named ‘grammar’, it doesn’t mean you’re teaching rules that the students have to learn, It just means, ‘grammar is where we’re going to start, and thenwe’re going to have a lot of fun with it, and practice, and do a lot of interesting things, and, most importantly, have successful communication experiences. ’”Another piece of advice for teachers is that students do not all learn in the same way. Each may have a different learning style when it comes to learning grammar. Some may see a pattern and understand the rule. Others need explanations and more practice.Michael Swan says that teachers should apply modern research on language to teach the most frequent grammar points before they spend time on those that are not often used, He wants teachers to understand their students’ language backgrounds, too. If the students have a native language with a similar grammar rule, they do not need to spend time practicing it in English.The w orst situation, Mr. Swan says, is when teachers try to make their students “perfect”English speakers by teaching too much grammar. This approach makes students afraid to speak, because they do not want to make any mistakes.32. The first paragraph implies that Azar thinks grammar _______.A. is the starting point of all classesB. is the basis of communicationC. should be combined with gamesD. is the structure of all wonderful things33. In Ms. Azar’s opinion, what mistakes do teacher s usually make about grammar？A. Doing a lot of practice.B. Ignoring its basic rules.C. Teaching it as a subject.D. Testing it in learning styles.34. When teaching grammar, teachers should _______ according to Mr. Swan.A. focus on grammar points that are often usedB. correct any grammar mistakes of students in timeC. find similar rules to their native languageD. make their students speak perfect English from the beginning35. Which would be the best title for the text？A. Grammar is too boring to learn.B. Grammar is not a subject at all.C. Grammar is taught too much at class.D. Grammar is quite a remarkable thing.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

I firmly continued to teach grammar.In the fall of 1991，I decided that it was time to learn to use a computer.The instructor suggested that I would learn more quickly if I worked on a continuous project.I thought of my grammar course which was hand-written in an old broken folder.This became my computer project.I spent every opportunity available to me in the computer room,early mornings,lunchtimes,after school and in the evenings.It was during the lunchtime periods,particularly,that I noticed a pattern forming.The younger teachers on staff,one by one,would sneak into the computer room and peer（窥视）over my shoulder.At first they were puzzled,but then they became interested in my grammar project.Without exception each would whisper into my ear, "When you are finished,may I have a copy？I was never taught grammar and I am terrified to teach it." At that moment,I realisedthat I was finally vindicated.I promised to give them a copy and when they left I shook my head and thought to myself, "Another product of the 70's,and the 80's,and the 90's and…"4.What was the popular opinion on grammar teaching in the 1970's？______A. Creative.B. Optional.C. Necessary.D. Outdated.5.What did the author think of his highly-educated colleagues？______A. They benefited from grammar teaching.B. They were clear how to make progress in education.C. They set the trend in the reform of teaching methods.D. They wrote their master's thesis without grammar rules.6.What does the underlined word "vindicated" in paragraph 4 probably mean？______A. To be unsuccessful.B. To prove to be right.C. To retire from school.D. To evaluate professionally.7.Why did the younger teachers care about the author's computer project？______A. They also wanted to learn using a computer.B. They hoped to learn grammar with the author.C. They lacked the grammar learning experience.D. They intended to follow the author to be a good teacher.CResearchers have developed a wearable device（设备）.It is stretchy（有弹性的）enough that you can wear it like a ring,a bracelet or any other accessory that touches your skin.It also changes the body's temperature into electricity,about 1 volt of energy for every square centimeter of skin space-less voltage per area than what most existing batteries provide but still enough to power electronics like watches or fitness trackers.It can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable,making it a cleaner alternative（替代品）to traditional electronics. The innovation（创新）begins with a base made out of a stretchy material called polyimide.The scientists then stick a series of thin heating chips into that base,connecting them all with liquid metal wires.The final product looks like a cross between a plastic watch and a mini computer motherboard or maybe a diamond ring.Just pretend that you're out for a jog.As you exercise,your body heats up,and that heat will radiate out to the cool air around you.The device catches that flow of energy instead of letting it go to waste.A person taking a quick walk could use a device the size of a typical sportswristband to produce about 5 volts of electricity,which is more than what many watch batteries can hold.The new devices are as stretchy as biological tissue.If your device tears,for example,you can put together the broken ends,and they'll seal back up in just a few minutes.Researchers are trying to make their devices as cheap and reliable as possible,while also having as close to zero effect on the environment as possible.While there are still problems to work out in the design,they think that the devices could appear on the market in a few years.8.Which of the following statements is false about the device？______A. It can repair itself.B. It can be recycled.C. It can transform energy.D. It can evaluate itself.9.How can a wearer make the device produce electricity？______A. By shaking it fast.B. By leaving it in the cool air.C. By giving out heat.D. By connecting it with watch batteries.10.What do the researchers think about the devices？______A. They will be expensive.B. They will have a bright future.C. They can not be damaged by force.D. They are completely environment-friendly.11.What is the best title for the text？______A. A Great Exercise CompanionB. An Innovation in Wearable DevicesC. A New Function of Traditional ElectronicsD. A Biological Battery in the Human BodyDJumping worms are wriggling（蠕动）their way across the United States,greedily swallowing protective forest leaf litter and leaving behind bare soil.They replace other earthworms,insects and ground-nesting,and disrupt forest food chains.They can harm more than 12 acres in a single year,changing soil and microbial communities as they go.Jumping worms are often sold as compost（堆肥）worms or bait（饵料）.And that is partially they're spreading.Fishers like them because the worms wriggle and swing like angrysnakes,which attracts.They're also marketed as compost worms because they eat up food leftovers far faster than other earthworms.But when it comes to ecology,the worms have more worrisome features.Their eggs are so they can easily attach to a hiker's or gardener's shoes,or can be transported in mulch（地膜），compost plants.Hundreds can exist within a square meter of ground.Jumping worms grow faster and reproduce faster-and without a mate,so one worm can a whole invasion（人侵）.Jumping worms also consume more nutrition than other earthworms,turning dry tiny balls that resemble coffee grounds or ground beef.This can make the soil unfriendly to native young trees and far more likely to be harmed.Scientists have been working hard to get a good handle on these worms.But there's still a unknown,making it hard to predict how much farther the worms might spread and into what kinds of.One important question is how weather conditions affect the worms.For example,a long-term year in Wisconsin seems to have killed off many of the worms.Soils filled with wriggling worms just a ago now hold far fewer.Perhaps that's a hopeful sign that even these hardy worms have their limits,but in the meantime,the attack of worms continues itsmarch-with help from the humans who spread them.12.What is the main harm that jumping worms do to the environment？______A. They feed on small insects.B. They destroy the soil nutrition.C. They eat up the leaves on plants.D. They change the conditions of compost.13.What helps jumping worms spread widely？______A. Their tiny eggs.B. Their way of moving.C. Their body size.D. Their evolutionary process.14.What is most likely to hold back jumping worms' quick spread？______A. The climate.B. Farm chemicals.C. Their natural enemies.D. Their unique demand for food.15.What is the author's attitude to the fight against jumping worms？______A. Desperate.B. Optimistic.C. Uncaring.D. Worried.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Think about what you are able to do if you find yourself in a survival situation.If you don't want to fall into despair,you should learn some outdoor skills.

Sold out.C. Took...to pieces.D. Fixed over.5.What did Grace's father bring to her？______A. A lot of wealth.B. The love for nature.C. The unique curiosity.D. The unbeatable spirit.6.Why did Grace's father encourage his daughters to go to college？______A. He thought they should stand on their own feet.B. He couldn't earn his own living for his poor health.C. He was unwilling to support his daughters any longer.D. He wished to leave home for a better education and life.7.Which of the following is Grace's achievement？______A. Joining the U.S.Naval Reserve as a woman.B. Inspiring more women to enter STEM fields.C. Helping develop a kind of English computer language.D. Building the first large automatic calculator in the U.S.CAs climate change affects the planet,the world is turning to seaweed（海草）as a possible settlement.Seaweed can play a huge role in fighting climate change.It is used to create natural fuel and renewable plastics.It helps improve oceanic ecosystems.People think of forests as the best defense（防护）against climate change.But some researchers say seaweed is a better settlement.Unlike trees,seaweed doesn't need fertilizers or fresh water.It grows faster than trees do.And it doesn't require any land.Most importantly,it absorbs carbon from the environment.Seaweed could also become a key global food source.Many worry about the environmental influence of eating meat.Could seaweed farms provide enough protein for the world？Carlos Duarte,a professor of oceanic ecology,thinks so. "When you look at how we are going to feed the world population by 2050，in a way that doesn't harm the environment,there is only one pathway," he says. "Seaweed farming."In the past decade or so,global seaweed production has doubled.In British Columbia,seaweed farming is becoming popular.For thousands of years,First Nations people,the native people of Canada,have farmed on land and in the ocean.Seaweed farming helps them create economies of their own that agree with their traditions.Their role has always been to connect with the landand repair it.Seaweed might fight climate change but it isn't without risks.If it isn't harvested,it can go bad and give off carbon back into the air or water.Growing too much of it could also affect the amount of light that reaches species living deeper in the water.That would be dangerous for underwater ecosystems.So some scientists think seaweed can be a part of the settlement to climate change,but it's not a perfect one on its own.8.What is an advantage of seaweed in fighting climate change compared with trees？______A. Growing taller.B. Using fewer resources.C. Living longer.D. Absorbing more carbon.9.What is Carlos Duarte's attitude to growing seaweed to feed the world？______A. Unclear.B. Doubtful.C. Uncaring.D. Supportive.10.What can we learn from the text？______A. First Nations people have changed their traditions.B. Seaweed farming has its origin in British Columbia.C. Seaweed farming isn't risk-free for the environment.D. Global seaweed production has been less in recent years.11.What is the best title for the text？______A. Seaweed Farming for FoodB. Seaweed Production in the WorldC. Seaweed Creating Natural FuelD. Seaweed in Environmental ProtectionDCaleb Arnold loves birds——especially hummingbirds.The 7-year-old boy knows a lot about his favorite animal. "They pollinate（授粉）plants,and they're pretty and small," he says.But there's one thing Caleb didn't know：hummingbirds see a wider range（范围）of colors than we do.It makes sense that Caleb didn't know this.Few people did for sure,until June 15，2020，when researchers published a report in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.It confirmed the fact that scientists have long suspected.Birds are experiencing a more colorful world that is above our own.A team of scientists conducted a three-year experiment to find out if hummingbirds are able to tell apart colors that look the same to humans.To understand the experiment,it's important to know how color vision works.There are three types of tiny color-sensitive cones（锥细胞）in the human eye.Birds,and some other animals,have a fourth.This means they can also see ultraviolet（紫外线）colors.The ultraviolet cone type allows birds to see combination colors that humans can't,like ultraviolet green and ultraviolet red.Biologists studying birds have supposed that birds can see these,but it's been challenging to test this idea.That's exactly what the team did.They put two bird feeders in the wild.One contained ordinary water.The other contained sugar water.Both feeders held a specially designed LED light stick—sort of a bird-vision light tube—that changed colors.If we are showed the ultraviolet green tube and the green tube,they'd both just look green to us.But the hummingbirds saw the difference.They could even tell apart two shades of ultraviolet red.The scientists observed that the birds were able to use the colors of the lights to find the sweet water.Caleb is glad scientists want to better understand birds. "Good!" he said,after hearing the news. "They're part of nature. "12.What is the purpose of the first paragraph？______A. To introduce hummingbirds.B. To explain a natural law.C. To lead in the topic of the text.D. To describe a boy who loves birds.13.What is unknown to most people about hummingbirds？______A. They look very beautiful.B. They are of a small size.C. They are helpful to plants.D. They see more colors than humans.14.What is paragraph 3 mainly about？______A. The reason for birds' better color vision.B. The types of color-sensitive cones.C. Combination colors unseen by humans.D. The experiment to test ultraviolet colors.15.How did hummingbirds find the water they liked？______A. By tasting the water in the two containers.B. By recognizing the light colors on the feeders.C. By smelling the water in different tubes.D. By telling apart the depth of water in different feeders.二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Do you want to help yourself achieve your own New Year's resolutions（决心）？Then consider these tips：A Stanford professor says that we should develop "small habits" for ourselves rather than try to change our behaviors entirely.The "small habits" can be anything.They might be practicing an instrument for 3 minutes per day,flossing（用牙线清洁）just one tooth or a single pushup when you first get out of bed. (1) ，so broad goals such as "eating healthy" or "getting in shape" are more ideas than achievable deeds.(2) That's because you'll carry them out without thinking about it.Examples of these daily habits might include washing your hands before eating a meal.Once someone forms a new habit,soon it turns into a full-blown custom.Forbes India offers a couple of simple tricks for going all the way with your resolution. (3) It could help you track your progress.That's because it will keep you paying attention to whether or not you're going on with your efforts.Examples might include tracking how far your run or how much time you put into studying a new language.Keeping the scorecard will also create a nice sense of satisfaction.Some people advise you should keep your resolution to yourself. (4) .It might mean that you're less likely to follow through.But others advise that you should tell your friends or family members.They say that having social support helps people achieve difficult goals.(5) ，because one tip is not for everyone.A.You can keep a scorecardB.It is up to you to choose a more suitable wayC.Changing our behaviors is a more difficult taskD.Announcing your goal suggests a sense of finishE.You should ask friends to improve your resolutionsF.Simplifying wishes to daily habits is much more practicalG.That's because you manage to keep on top of your resolutions16.
