China builds new hospital in10days to combat coronavirus中国速度，火神山医院和雷神山医院建成记The Chinese philosopher(哲学家)Confucius once said,“Time flows away like the water in the river.”This is especially true as the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak has affected millions of people in China,and the whole nation has been working day and night to fight the epidemic.In late January when an increasing number of people in Wuhan were suspected to be infected,and hospitals didn’t have adequate beds for them,two special hospitals –Leishenshan Hospital and Huoshenshan Hospital–were built.These two makeshift(临时的)hospitals were built to treat pneumonia patients infected with the novel coronavirus.Huoshenshan Hospital has1,000beds and covers 33,900square meters,and Leishenshan Hospital has1,500beds and a total area of about79,000square meters.More than4,000workers worked24/7in two shifts,and nearly1,000large-scalepieces of equipment and transport vehicles helped the project on-site.The two hospitals were built in an amazingly short time.It only took10days for people to build Huoshenshan,and14days for lions of Chinese people watched livestreamed(直播)videos of the construction.This certainly wowed many people overseas.“It’s incredible that two hospitals with2,500beds can be built in a short period.It’s just hard to believe,”a foreigner named Stuart told People’s Daily.“This project shows us that China is a great nation with solidarity(团结),”a Chinese internet user commented on Sina Weibo.In the meantime,Chinese companies have also taken actions quickly in this battle.According to China Daily,some Chinese companies which have nothing to do with medical supplies have changed their factories to churn out masks,the most-needed“weapon”for the public’s defense.Local automobile maker BYD,for example,started producing masks on Feb8 and launched them on Feb17.The first batch(一批)of these masks was donated to drivers of public buses,taxis as well as volunteers fighting the viral outbreak.“The automobile industry is highly industrialized with strong capabilities in comprehensive manufacturing,purchasing materials,production lines and output of technologies,”Shi Jianhua,deputy secretary-general of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers,told CCTV News.“In this special time,when the nation needs more masks,it’s time for us to quickly respond and shoulder the social responsibilities.”Indeed,a fast response is crucial(重要的)in any crisis.In this special time, China can’t afford to waste a second in the fight against the epidemic.After all,time equals life during this crisis.（选自Newyork Times）1.The project of the two makeshift hospitals amazed the world because of ________.A.the high cost of completing themB.the efficiency in which they were builtC.The support they received from home and abroadD.the livestreamed videos used to track their construction2.What does the underlined phrase“churn out”in Paragraph7probably mean?A.collect a large amount of somethingB.save something for future useC.produce large amounts of something quicklyD.sell something at a low price3.What is the author’s intention of introducing the automobile industry in the text?A.To inform us of its advanced technologies.B.To explain what it can do to help fight the virus.C.To show that it should have contributed more to the fight.D.To prove that different industries have united to fight the virus.译文：中国哲学家孔子曾经说过：“时间像河里的水一样流逝。
2020年高考英语外刊时事做阅读理解：中国迅速兴起的咖啡文化对全球市场有着至关重要的影响China'
China's booming coffee culture has significant impacts on the global market 中国迅速兴起的咖啡文化对全球市场有着至关重要的影响Sun was sitting at a table under a green parasol（大遮阳伞），enjoying an iced coffee while waiting for her friend. The sun was shining and the seating area outside the Starbucks in Xintiandi was full of young, fashionable Chinese.Sun is one of a growing number of Chinese people starting to drink coffee regularly and helping to make the Chinese coffee market the fastest growing one in the world. China may be historically a nation of tea drinkers, but in recent years, coffee has become increasingly popular, particularly among younger people in big cities.International coffee chains like Starbucks and Costa can now be found in almost every big Chinese city. Both brands see China as a huge growth market and have tried to adapt to Chinese tastes. Starbucks, which opened its first Chinese shop in 1999, has said it plans to double its store count in China to over 3,000 stores by 2019, while Costa plans to expand itself to 900 shops by 2020.“Coffee culture has been developing in China,” says Esther Lau, a market research analyst. China’s massive and rapid urbanization, along with a growing number of Chinese traveling overseas, are the major factors she believes that have contributed to the development of coffee drinking.However, coffee remains a relatively new departure for China’s tea-drinking population.While coffee is an everyday purchase for most office workers in the West, it is still considered a premium（优质的）product in China and is a luxury out of the reach of most average workers. At the Starbucks in Xintiandi, for example, a medium latte costs 30 yuan.A high price is considered a sign of quality in China, says Lau. “The higher the price , the better the quality. This concept remains popular in China, and Starbucks and Costa have both realized it,”she adds. “They want to brand themselves as premium chains.”China is also growing as a producer of coffee, with the majority grown in Yunnan, a province traditionally associated with tea production. Over the past five years, the annual production volume of coffee there has increased from 60,000 tons to nearly 120,000 tons.（节选自the Guardian）1. Esther Lau attributes the development of coffee drinking in China to the factthat_______.①an increasing number of towns and cities have popped up in China②an increasing number of Chinese people can now lead a wealthy life③an increasing number of Chinese have taken to traveling overseas④an increasing number of international coffee chains have appeared in ChinaA.①③B.②④C.①④D.②③2. Starbucks and Costa charge high prices for their products because_________.A. the coffee beans they use cost them a lot of moneyB. they want to make up for their losses in the WestC. most of their target customers are very wealthyD. they want to brand themselves as premium chains3. We can find answers to all of the following questions in the articleEXCEPT“_________”A. What is the fastest growing coffee market in the world?B. When did Costa open its first coffee shop in China?C. How much is a medium latte at the Starbucks in Xintiandi?D. How many coffee beans does Yunnan produce every year?词汇：adapt v. to gradually change your behavior and attitudes in order to be successful in a new situation 适应，适合urbanization n. the process by which more and more people leave the countryside to live in cities 城市化过程contribute v. to help to make sth. happen促成，造成答案：1.A 2.D 3.B。
2020年高考英语外刊时事命题阅读理解：
Humans once opposed coffee and refrigeration.Here’s why we often hate new stuff.为什么我们总是抗拒新鲜事物？Humans have a habit of deliberately delaying their own progress.From coffee to mechanical refrigeration to genetically altered food,history is littered with innovations that caused resistance before they become fixtures in everyday life.But the past600years of human history help to explain why humans often oppose new technologies and why that pattern of opposition continues to this day. Calestous Juma,a professor of Harvard University,explores this phenomenon in his latest book, Innovation and Its Enemies:Why People Resist New Technologies.Among Juma’s claims is that people do not fear innovation simply because the technology is new,but because innovation often means losing a piece of their identity or lifestyle,and separating people from nature or their sense of purpose—two things that are fundamental to the human experience.Juma identified in his research three key sources of opposition to innovation:those with commercial interests in existing products,those who identify with existing products,and those who might lose power as a result of change.The first group is perhaps the most obvious.Many industries have been disrupted by innovation.Just take a look at the pointless efforts of music publishers to stop the shift to digital music.Some consumers might oppose an innovation because the existing product is deeply rooted in their identity,culture or customs.Britons preferred tea time at home to sitting in acoffee shop,for example.Finally,the emergence of new technologies can also result in a shift in economic and political power,redistributing wealth and influence away from some groups,and toward others.The expansion of tractors(拖拉机)and other mechanical equipment reduced the need for farm labor,and the shift in population away from rural areas had significant political implications.Humans make decisions about new innovations with their instinct rather than evidence. Opponents and enthusiasts of a new technology will often make shocking claims to support their arguments.Sometimes these claims are rooted in fact;other times they are not.People once claimed coffee could make you sterile(不育的).Juma said beneath those arguments was typically an instinctive fear of new technologies,rather than a reasoned response.“People react intuitively,and they collect the evidence to support what they’re doing,”Juma said.“They see a new product and there is an emotional reaction to that product because it challenges their outlook on the world.This has been the story with almost every new product.”Historically,technologists have been more concerned with the functionality of the products they create,paying less attention to the implications it may have on society at large,Juma contends. Fortunately,that may be starting to change.（选自Washingtonpost）43.We can infer from the first two paragraphs that Juma’s book____.A.explores why history often repeats itselfB.focuses on the impact of technology on natureC.analyzes the role of technology in social progressD.researches the recurrence(重现)of a certain phenomenon44.Which of the following statements is correct according to Paragraph3?A.Opposition to innovation is mainly caused by loss of cultural identity.B.British people have a strong sense of independence.C.A successful technological innovation can affect population flow.D.Young people prefer digital music to traditional recordings.45.In Juma’s opinion,people’s resistance to new technologies____.A.is not based on factB.is a natural responseC.arises from fear of challengesD.reflects their prejudiced view of the world46.It is implied in the last paragraph that technologists should give more consideration to____.A.the functionality of new productsB.the social usefulness of new productsC.the social influence of new productsD.the potential danger of new products译文：人类习惯于故意拖延自己的进步。
2020年高考英语外刊时事命题阅读理解：
Inside the Fight for Cleaner Air空气污染亟待解决，英国牛津有话说At first glance,London’s Oxford Street looks like any other clean urban corridor.Trees bloom.Taxis honk.Shoppers flock to stores like Starbucks, Uniqlo and the Gap.Of all the words you could use to describe this destination, dangerous would be low on the list.But the air that flows through Oxford Street is far from pleasing.Over time, it has become filled with nitrogen dioxide,a pollutant that is invisible to the naked eye and contributes to a number of health issues—asthma,lung disease, even death—if breathed in on a regular basis.In August,London’s mayor,Sadiq Khan,rated Oxford as“the most polluted street in the world”in terms of nitrogen dioxide.This is not the narrative we’re used to hearing about air pollution,which for years has been associated with obvious markers,like fumes and smog,in developing countries.Now,however,it affects everyone.A recent report from the World Health Organization(WHO)estimates that roughly9out of10people live in areas with excessive air pollution.How did things get so bad?The answers depend on where you live.In the developing world,the main culprit is rapid industrial growth,which has led to the creation of dirty factories and coal-fired power plants.In Europe,it’s mostly the rise of diesel-powered cars,which emit nitrogen dioxide.Globally,though, lawmakers have lately ignored the problem until it arrives at their doorstep.Slowly,that’s starting to change.In London,Oxford Street and other polluted roads will soon be permanently car-free.In Los Angeles,transit officials have cited air pollution as a key driver behind a move to electric buses. Many policymakers hope measures to address climate change,like last year’s Paris Agreement,will also help reduce pollution.These moves represent an important start,but a real push to clean the air will take years if not decades.The biggest barrier to such efforts may be the cost, real or imagined.Developing countries rely on factories to fuel growth,and officials have long feared that breaking that habit may hurt their economies.In the meantime,a group of scientists,environmentalists and entrepreneursare trying to tackle the problem on their own.Among them:Vogmask and Cambridge Mask Co.,which offer stylish versions of the N95air-filtration mask, and TZOA,whose Fitbit-like device allows users to track the air quality around them in real time.Of course,these efforts are treating the symptoms,not the problem.But for many,that’s better than nothing.（选自TIME）1.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Traditional air pollution markers include fumes,smog and nitrogen dioxide.B.London’s Oxford Street was rated as the most polluted place in the world.C.Many health issues in London are attributed to the traffic in Oxford Street.D.Now air pollution affects only those in developing countries.2.The underlined word“culprit”can be replaced with“A.reasonB.resultC.targetD.interest3.All the following are contributing factors to the seriousness of airpollution exceptA.dirty factories and coal-fired power plants in developing countriesB.some tourist destinations filled with visitorswmakers’failure to address the problem before it’s too lateD.the rise of diesel-powered cars in European countries4.From the last paragraph,we can infer thatA.developing countries lag behind in their efforts to deal with air pollutionB.some companies have already come up with effective measures to deal with air pollutionC.scientists,environmentalists and entrepreneurs have made vain effortsD.although current efforts cannot resolve air pollution directly,they are worth making译文：乍一看，伦敦的牛津街看起来就像其他任何干净的城市走廊一样。

【必背范文】The Advantages of Online PaymentOnline payment has been advocated around the world, which is the future way to pay bills. In China, Alipay is popular everywhere, even the small business can be finished by this advanced way. People play the joke that they don’t need to worry about the lack of cash. The advantages of online payment are obvious.Firstly, it saves people’s time to pay bills. The use of online payment is carried out with a smart phone. Especially when we go to the supermarket, there are always a lot of people waiting in the long line. The process of costing customers’ time is to take out the cash or use the credit card, because both customers and cashiers need to count the money or check the bills. But now the cashier can just scan the phone and the bill will be paid and the customer can check quickly.Second, people don’t have to worry about getting the fake cash. Many years ago, people were easy to get fake mone y as they received the change. But now, as the cash have been used less, people won’t receive the fake cash without paper money. With the development of new applications, our life will be much convenient.范文42 邀请Tom体验共享单车假设你是李华，你校的新高一交换生Tom对共享单车感到新奇，请你写一份邮件，邀请他去体验共享单车。

一 YouTube Plans 'Shorts' to Rival TikTok 2020-04-03 YouTube used to be the cool kid on the block, but then TikTok showed up and everything changed. Now, YouTube is looking to compete directly with the short-form, user-generated content app by reportedly launching its own version called “Shorts.”
Shorts will allow people to upload brief videos into a feed inside the mobile app, much like TikTok, and take advantage of licensed music that YouTube Music has in its catalog, according to The Information. Those songs can be used within the videos. TikTok operates by letting people choose from a selection of audio, music and otherwise, and create videos using those sounds.
Take a look at any state-of-mobile report and it’s pretty obvious why YouTube wants a piece of the action. TikTok saw more than 125 percent in growth over the last two years, according to a January report from App Annie. The app has hundreds of millions of users and is a cultural force. The Information not Youtube与抖音 2020-04-03 244 Youtube曾经是整条街最靓的仔，但后来海外版抖音出现了，一切都变了。现在，youtube正寻求通过发布自己的版本“短裤”，直接与这款由用户生成的短格式内容应用程序竞争。根据“信息”(Information)的报道，“短片”将允许人们将简短的视频上传到移动应用程序内的一个提要中，就像TikTok一样，还可以利用YouTube音乐目录中的授权音乐。这些歌曲可以在视频中使用。TikTok的运作方式是允许人们从音频、音乐和其他选择中进行选择，并使用这些声音创建视频。看一看任何移动状态报告，很明显，为什么youtube想要参与其中。根据AppAnne 1月份的一份报告，TikTok在过去两年中实现了超过125%的增长。这款应用拥有数亿用户，是一种文化力量。该信息指出，TikTok在过去12个月中首次从苹果和谷歌的应用商店下载了约8.42亿次，同比增长了15%。这并不是YouTube第一次在另一个社交平台上开发自己的流行功能。YouTube还将其版本的Instagram故事带到了该网站。考虑到其庞大的用户群(每月20多亿活跃用户)和深度音乐许可协议，构建TikTok版本并不令人惊讶。

Loneliness Behind Watching Other People Eating 2020-04-05 We already watch other people watching the telly, but now our appetite for the mundane seems to have extended to watching other people eat.
The increasing popularity of ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) videos, in which people listen to pleasing noises that act as sedatives and “mukbang” – a combination of muok-da (the Korean word for eating) with bang song (Korean for broadcast) – have seen millions tuning in to YouTube videos to watch people eat. But are these online food communities just another short-lived fad, or could they have wider implications for the way we socialise?
While eating a meal has traditionally been a communal affair, eating alone is becoming increasingly common as the number of single-person households grows. The government predicts the number of single-occupant households will reach 1.7 million in England by 2039. Is mukbang a symptom of our growing loneliness?
“Loneliness is such a personal experience, so it is difficult to say either way,” says Alice Stride, a spokeswoman for the Campaign to End Loneliness. “It might bring someone great comfort to watch someone else prepare a meal and eat it, especially if they have been living on their own for a long time.”
Solo dining in restaurants is becoming more socially acceptable, too. According to the online reservation service Bookatable, single-table bookings have increased by 38% since 2014. Not everyone thinks this is a bad thing. A plethora of foodie bloggers can be found waxing lyrical on the joys of eating alone, invariably claiming that solo dining means you concentrate on your food rather than your dining partner.
A recent report conducted by the Royal Voluntary Service charity found that one in five people over 70 eat most meals alone. Stride adds that she would be concerned if younger people were watching people eat instead of eating with friends or family, but recognises that for older people the television can be a huge source of comfort.
Stride says: “If you can’t get out, if you’re ill for example, then perhaps that would bring you a great sense of comfort. On the whole, though, we would advocate face-to-face contact, but we recognise that this is nuanced – it’s not one or the other, really.”
Self-confidence expert and relationship coach Ben Edwards is less concerned by the trend’s potential implications. “I would always encourage people to do whatever makes them feel better as long as it is a healthy habit,” says Edwards. “I would obviously encourage people to be social, but I think if people feel like watching other people prepare and eat food, and it gives them some sort of satisfaction, I see no harm.” 吃播视频的背后，是孤独的灵魂 一般的电视节目已经满足不了我们了，我们现在似乎更喜欢看吃播了，在这些视频中，人们听着令人愉悦的噪音，这些声音起到镇静剂的作用，而“mukbang”是指饮食的韩语单词muok-da和广播的“邦歌”(Bang Song)的结合，在视频中，数以百万计的人在YouTube上收听观看人们吃饭的视频。但是，这些在线食品社区只是又一种短暂的时尚，还是会对我们的社交方式产生更广泛的影响？虽然吃一顿饭传统上是一种公共事务，但随着单身家庭数量的增加，单独吃饭变得越来越普遍。英国政府预测，到2039年，英国的单身家庭将达到170万户。穆克邦是我们日益增长的孤独的症状吗？“孤独是一种个人体验，所以很难用任何一种方式来形容，”“结束孤独运动”的女发言人爱丽丝·斯特罗德(Alice Stede)说。“看着别人准备一
