We love letters. Just as John Donne, a poet, 36 it, “Letters, to me and my friends mean 37 greetings; they get souls together. Thanks to letters, friends who are 38 speak." He wrote these words nearly 400 years ago. Today, in the age of instant text message, social media, and email, they 39 ring truer than ever, because writing or receiving a letter has become such a 40 event.A UK・wide survey undertaken by Sunday Times suggests that one in four of us has not 41 a letter for at least 10 years. That's ten years without the bitter-sweet 42 of pacing the floor waiting for the 43 : ten years without recognizing the handwriting on the envelope and eagerly 44 the letter to read its content.We 45 not get them any more, but we still love handwritten letters. In the same survey, one third of 46 people interviewed say that they 47 the content of sentimental(充满情感的)letters. Shouldn't we make 48 to give our friends and families what they will treasure forever? Ann Bickley went online in 2013 and offered to handwrite a letter to anyone who 49 her. Her website received 50,000 50 in its first three months. Five years later, she is still the main 51 behind and has personally written 4,000 letters offering hope and 52 to strangers.The thought behind a letter 53 as much as its contents.

There I was 22 to see the attendant (工作人员) selling him a ticket as if he were any other visitor. Then, with the ticket in one hand and 23 the wall with the fingers of the other, the blind man reached the stairs 24 to the hallway.“That man is blind. What would a blind man climb up the tower for?” I said to the attendant, expecting him to show some 25 , but he didn’t answer.“Not the 26 certainly,” I said. “Perhaps he wants to 27 .”I bought a ticket and 28 up the stairs. The man hadn’t gone as far as I 29 . A third of the way up the tower, I heard his 30 . I slowed down and followed him at a little 31 . He stopped from time to time. When he got to the balcony, I was a dozen steps 32 . As I reached it, I saw him at the corner of the tower.At last, after ten minutes, I 33 him. “Excuse me,” I said as politely as I could, “but I am curious to know 34 you came up.”He smiled. “Coming up the stairs, you will notice how not just light but sun 35 into the tower through the narrow windows here and there, so that you can feel the 36 —the cool stairs suddenly become quite warm—and how up here behind the wall there is 37 , but as soon as going opposite a window you can find the sun. There is no 38 so good as this for feeling the difference between light and shade. It is not the first time I’ve come up.”The blind man seemed quite 39 just like a child who was enjoying his favorite games.

Most people around the world are right-handed. This fact also seems to have held true throughout history. In 1977 scientists studied works of art made at various times in history. Most of the people shown in these works of art are right handed, so scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common. But what do Leonardo da Vinci, Marie Curie, and Albert Einstein have in common? They were all left-handed along with other famous people including Brad Pitt Prince William, and Barack Obama. In fact, an estimated 13 percent of the world's population may be left-handed.Many researchers claim to have found relationships between left-handedness and various physical and mental characteristics, such as blond hair, blue eyes, andsleep difficulties. Other studies have found a higher-than-normal level of left-handed people in certain occupations(职业), including professional baseball players, architects, as well as prisoners. However, some of these connections are very weak, and others have not been proven.What makes a person become right-handed rather than left-handed? One simple idea suggests that people normally get right-handedness from their parents. Studies have found that two right-handed parents have only a 9. 5-percent chance of having a left-handed child, while two left-handed parents have a 26-percent chance of having a left-handed child. Another common theory is that left-handed people suffer mild brain damage during birth, which makes them left-handed.Whatever the reasons behind it, people's attitudes toward left-handedness have changed a lot over the years. Statistics show that although 13 percent of young people are left-handed, only six percent of the elderly are left-handed. Left-handed children used to be punished until they began using their right hand like other children, but today people who are left-handed are no longer looked down on nor are they considered abnormal For most people today, either case is perfectly acceptable. There are even a number of shops now selling products for left-handed people, such as left-handed can openers, guitars, and even a left-handed camera.第二节概要写作(满分25分)While most of the world’s population is right-handed, a minority are left-handed. (要点1 ) Many researchers claim left handedness has something to do with physical and mental features and professions, but these assumptions lack solid evidence. (要点2) Thus, some think left-handedness is genetic while others attribute it to mild brain injury during birth. (要点3) Anyway, people's attitudes toward left-handedness have changed a lot with the whole society accepting lefties more than before.(要点4) 68词2.浙江省台州市2020届高三11月选考科目教学质量评估第一节:应用文写作(满分15分)假定你是李华,你的英国朋友Steve被当地一所孔子学院录取,即将入学,不知道如何作学业方面的准备。

2020年浙江温州高三三模英语试卷-学生用卷一、阅读理解(本大题共10小题,每小题2.5分,共25分)1、【来源】 2020年浙江温州高三三模(A篇)第21~23题7.5分The promise of college in America is the promise of a clear path to the future, of a reward for all the sleep deprivation and soul-deadening competition of high school, and, most of all, of instant adulthood. As of April, 2020, however, none of that is happening due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus(新型冠状病毒).Saminah Haddad, a seventeen-year-old senior at Long Beach Polytechnic High School, wasn't expecting her college offers until later in the spring. This year, there will be no spring season, which for Haddad means no four-year college. She is considering Long Beach City College, which is free for state residents. She also lost her job at an amusement park. All of the senior-year milestones that Haddad had been looking forward to have been cancelled: prom, graduation, and an event called the "Pursuit of Excellence Awards, " where she would have been recognized for perfect attendance. She doesn't yet know if she'll still be working this summer for her father, who was about to open a juice bar in Brooklyn.In the meantime, Haddad's school is offering some online instruction, but in her case the course load has dropped to just two classes: A.P. Literature, which meets virtually, and a government class, which consists of written assignments that she receives by e-mail. Haddad is planning to take her A.P. exam, though she finds it hard to imagine what the forty-five-minute, cell-phone-friendly version of the test will be like. No one knows how colleges will view it, either.Life has been emptied of content, and the plot is lost. She texts with friends. She argues with her mom and stepdad a lot. "It's bringing us closer together, " she half joked. "But it's O.K."(1) What can be known about Haddad from Paragraph 2?A. She has applied to study abroad.B. She will attend a graduation ceremony.C. She won't work in her father's juice bar.D. She may get her college offers in late spring.(2) How does Haddad feel about the A.P. Exam?A. Doubtful.B. Bored.C. Excited.D. Nervous.(3) In which section of a newspaper may the passage appear?A. Family.B. Society.C. Education.D. Health.2、【来源】 2020年浙江温州高三三模(B篇)第24~26题7.5分高三三模(B篇)第24~26题7.5分Noah Higgs hated learning Irish in school. He hated the way it was taught, overly formal and disconnected from ordinary people's lives. Most of all he hated the effect the lessons had on his fellow students' willingness to speak the language. But the Dublin native never lost his love for Irish, nor his opinion that more people should be learning the language.Today, almost 40% of the 7, 000 languages spoken worldwide are endangered, according to the United Nations. More are going extinct every year. It was once widely feared that the Internet revolution would accelerate this decline. If developers and smartphone manufacturers aren't willing to invest in supporting minority languages, that would cut off people who speak them from an important way to communicate and trap those languages in the past.Higgs, 23, though, is one of a small group of educators and activists reinventing how minority languages are taught and preserved online by using cutting-edge technology.When he was 17, Higgs had a "crazy teenage idea". He had begun using Duolingo, a mobile language-learning app, to study French, and wondered if the creators had considered adding support for Irish.At the time in early 2013, there were five languages on Duolingo, the smallest of which, Italian, has an estimated 67.9 million speakers worldwide. By comparison, at its height in the 18th century, there were an estimated four million Irish speakers. Today the figure is closer to 1.2 million."I didn't get a reply, " Higgs said.But his e-mail wasn't ignored. Inside Duolingo's open-plan, Silicon Valley-style headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, change was going on. Within five years, the language startup would build a library of over 30 languages, including some of the most endangered on the planet.(1) What was the public concern over the Internet revolution?A. People's less contact in real life.B. The negative effect on the lessons.C. Fewer ways of learning languages.D. The decline of endangered languages.(2) What was Higgs' "crazy teenage idea"?A. Turning to Duolingo to study French.B. Teaching minority languages on the Internet.C. Asking Duolingo developers to support Irish.D. Using cutting-edge technology to preserve Irish.(3) What can be learned from the last three paragraphs?A. Higgs' e-mail went unnoticed.B. Duolingo improved its service.C. Duolingo's headquarters changed.D. Irish was on the point of dying out.3、【来源】 2020年浙江温州高三三模(C篇)第27~30题10分A desire among many seniors is to "age in place". Aging in place is a term used to describe a person living in their own house, for as long as they are able to, as they age. Yes, the familiarity of your current home is the advantage of aging in place, but the potential financial drawbacks to renovate(翻新) the house might actually be more costly than the long-term benefits.40 years ago, with a growing family, you probably purchased a 4-bedroom child-friendly house. Now, with kids moving out, you might be thinking about changing one of your bedrooms into a massive master bathroom, and another into an open-space reading area. You might also be thinking about cutting back on lawn maintenance(草坪维护) by installing a pool surrounded by beautiful paving stones. It all sounds wonderful, doesn't it? For the short term, you may really enjoy the new upgrades, but you'll still have to climb those stairs, pay to heat and cool a home that's larger than what you need, and continue fixing all the things that start to go wrong with a 40-year-old home.Last month, in their Retirement Report, Kiplinger addressed the point, "Renovations are just a part of what you need to make aging in place work for you. While it's typically less expensive to remain in your home than to pay for assisted living, that doesn't mean it's a slam dunk to stay put. You'll still have a long to-do list. You need to plan ahead for how you will manage maintenance and care—for your home, and for yourself."So, at some point, the time may come when you decide to sell this house anyway. That can pose a big challenge if you've already taken cash value out of your home and used it to do the type of renovation we mentioned above. The family moving into your neighborhood is probably similar to what your family was 40 years ago.(1) Why do many seniors want to age in place?A. They are familiar with the house.B. They can enjoy long-term benefits.C. They can live as long as they desire.D. They are likely to avoid financial trouble.(2) What do the seniors renovate the houses mainly for?A. Preparing for aging in place.B. Making it more energy-efficient.C. Cutting back on the necessary cost.D. Making full use of the space available.(3) What is conveyed in the Retirement Report?A. Aging in place turns out to be very rewarding.B. Renovating the house calls for a lot of money.C. Assisted living deserves wider public attention.D. Aging in place is more than renovating the house.(4) What can be the author's advice for those wishing to age in place?A. Take life as it is.B. Think before you act.C. Better late than never.D. Enjoy life to the fullest.二、七选五(本大题共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)4、【来源】 2020年浙江温州高三三模第31~35题10分高三三模第31~35题10分A little battery puts out a little bit of electricity, so you can use it safely for your experiments. But the electricity that comes through the wires in your house or school is much morepowerful.1Inside the walls where you live or study, there are big wires that carry electricity. When you plug in a light or radio or other electrical appliance, you are putting the light or radio in the path way of the electricity. You have heard adults say, "Don't stick your finger into the wall plug." Now do you know why?2Your body is a pretty good conductor of electricity. The electrical current coming through the wires to the wall plug is so strong that it would hurt a lot if you stuck your finger in the plug.Think: Why should you never put your fingers into the socket(插座)where the light bulb is fixed into a lamp?3Put your finger in there and it could be you, rather than the light bulb, that becomes part of the electrical path way. And that would hurt!What if you held a piece of metal, like a fork or knife, and stuck it into the wall plug? Don't do it! Why? It's because metals conduct electricity. And you would get a terrible shock!4Can you think why? It's because water is a good conductor of electricity. When your hands are wet or when your body is in a bathtub full of water, the electricity could flow right through you and give you an awful shock, or even kill you.Electricity is very useful, but it can be dangerous. Be careful, be safe and besmart.5A. Let electricity help you, not hurt you.B. Keep yourself away from the electricity.C. Therefore, you need to remember some safety rules.D. Don't touch any electrical appliance when you are wet.E. Make your home as safe as possible for kids with these tips.F. If you did, you would become part of the electrical path way.G. That's the place where the electricity flows into the light bulb.三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,每小题1.5分,共30分)5、【来源】 2020年浙江温州高三三模第36~55题30分I watered in my garden on that burning hot afternoon. "Missus!"

When other teens were studying or going out, she struggled to fred a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship (奖学金) and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, "Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story", shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22,year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that loss became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herseff into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets. "What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other way of being. I had only. experienced a small part of the society." She wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe riving environment, to encourage herself that "next to nothing could hold me down". She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University. But Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. "I love my parents so much. They are drag addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time."Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is "as simple as making a decision".46. In which order did the following things happen to Liz?a.Her mother died of A/DS.b. She worked at a petrol station..c. She got admitted into Harvard.d. The movie about her life was put on.e. She had trouble finding a place to sleep.A. b, a, e, c, dB. a,b, c, e, dC. e, d, b, a, cD.b, e, a, d, c47. The main idea of the passage isA.how Liz managed to enter Harvard UniversityB.what a hard time Liz had in her childhoodC. why Liz loved her parents so muchD. how Liz struggled to changeher life48. What actually made her go towards her goal?A. Envy and encouragement.B. Willpower and determination.C. Decisions and understanding.D. Love and respect for her parents.49. When she wrote "What drove me to live on...I had only experienced asmall part of the society", she meant thatA. she had little experience of social lifeB. she eould hardly understand the societyC. she would do something for her own lifeD. she needed to travel more around the worldBDo you have any strong opinion on co-educational or single-sex schools?A supporter of co-educational schools would probably say that schools should be like the societies they belong to. In Hong Kong, men and women mix socially on a day-to-day basis. In many fields men are even likely to have female bosses. It is, therefore, desirable that boys and girls grow up together, go to school together, and prepare themselves for a society that does not value sexual separation.Some would go on to argue further that growing up with members of the opposite sex is important for personal development. Regular contact can remove the strange ideas about the opposite sex and lead to more natural relationships. Single-sex conditions are seen as leading to more extreme opinions, and possibly even as encouraging homosexuality(同性恋), though there is no proof that this is the case.Those who are against co-education often also fix their attention on the sexual side. Some parents fear that close contact with members of the opposite sex is dangerous for teenagers. They want their children to be attentive to their studies. Such parents feel un- comfortable with modern ways and the free mixing of the sexes.A stronger argument comes from research into school results. Girls grow up earlier than boys. tend to be more orderly and are likely to be better at languages. In a mixed class, boys who might do well in a single-sex class become discouraged and take on the role of troublemaker. Certainly in the UK this situation has greatly alarmed(惊动)the government for it to be encouraging co-educational schools to have some single-sex classes. In the UK the best schools are all single-sex, strongly suggesting that co-education is not the best answer. This may, however, not be as simple as it looks. It may simply be that the famous old schools that attract the best students happen to be single-sex, rather than that being single-sex makes them better schools.50. In the third paragraph, by saying “though there is no proof that this is the case”, the writer means that ________.A. students in single-sex schools will certainly become homosexualB. students in co-educational schools cannot have extreme opinionsC. students in co-educational schools are likely to be homosexualD. single-sex school conditions may or may not have effects on the students.51. All the following arguments can be found in the passage EXCEPT that _______.A. co-education can produce a society-like situationB. co-educational schools may lead to love affairs between boys and girlsC. co-education will help develop a better understanding about the opposite sexD. co-education can make boys perform well in mixed classes52. Alarmed by the situation, the UK government encourages _______.A. co-educationB. single-sex educationC. single-sex classes in co-educational schoolsD. co-educational classes in single-sex schools53. At the end of the passage the writer suggests that _______.A. single-sex schools are the best schools in the UKB. being single-sex does not necessarily make a school betterC. co-educational schools are better for both sexes in personal developmentD. because boys cannot compete with girls in study, they go to single-sex schoolsCPeople with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a stronger effect on their health.From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are regular. Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.The research team interviewed a national sample of 1,031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health. People without a high school diploma(毕业文凭) reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.‘‘Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health.” leading researcher Dr. Joseph Grzywacz of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said ina prepared sta tement. “The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors(紧张刺激物), and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more damaging for the less advantaged.”Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known that their stress is more acute and chronic(急性和慢性).“If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor” Grzywacz says. “Maybe it is just l ife.”54. Stress level is closely related to ________.A. family sizeB. social positionC. body weightD. work experience55. Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?A. People without any educationB. People without high school degreesC. People with high school degreesD. People with college degrees56. The less advantaged people are, the greater ________.A. the effect of stress on their health isB. the effect of education on their health isC. the level of their education isD. the degree of their health concern is57. Less-educated people report fewer days of stress possibly because ________.A. they don’t want to tell the truthB. they don’t want to face the truthC. stress is too common a factor in their lifeD. their stress is more acuteDScientists say they were able to reduce the effect of the AIDS with a drug first designed to treat other conditions. AIDS damages the protection system so the body cannot fight viruses inside the body. At present, medicines can reduce HIV to levels low enough to keep people alive. But these drugs are not a cure. Small amounts of the vir us still remain in human’s body. If it wakes up again, the virus can become active and begin to copy itself, so people must continue to take medicine.A new study has been carried out on four patients. They had already taken medicine for more than two years. The researchers first improved the effect of the drug. Then in addition, they gave the patient another one, valproic acid(丙戊酸). Valproic acid is used to help epilepsy(癫痫病)patients. Some people with depression(抑郁症) also take the drug to calm themselves down.But valproic acid has also been shown to block something that helps HIV, the AIDS virus, to hide. The patients took the medicine twice a day for three months.Over this time, the researchers say the amount of the virus was reduced by nearly seventy-five percent in three of the four people. But the numbers returned to earlier levels when the treatment ended.Valproic acid has some serious dangers, especially for women who will soon give birth. Doctor Margolis says more study is needed into its use against AIDS. But the scientists do say that their early finding suggests that new methods will produce a cure of HIV in the future. Some other scientists, however, say it is too early to talk of cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy. They say a cure would have to make the patients healthy again and the virus might not hide only in the protection system.58. Which of the following is NOT a function of Valproic acid?A. To control the effects of epilepsy.B. To block something that helps HIV.C. To calm down people with depression.D. To improve the strength of other drugs.59. By saying that “it is too early to talk of cure for a virus that is sodifficult to destroy”, the author means_________.A. Scientists hope to find the cure for AIDS soonB. Scientist don’t want to talk about their cure too earlyC. Scientists doubt a cure for AIDS can soon be foundD. It’s too late to find the cure for a virus that is so difficult todestroy60. This text most probably appears in _________.A. a newspaperB. a book on Chinese medicineC. a noticeD. a tour guide book61. We can learn from the text that ________.A. valproic acid can help all HIV patientsB. usually the AIDs virus is not difficult to destroyC. the effects of valproic acid do not last foreverD. doctors have found an effective way to cure the AIDSEMany students are planning field trips as spring draws near. Fourteen-year-old Zhou Liqun is busy digging holes (洞) along rivers. The girl and her "One Piece of Paper Team" are planting trees to improve the environment.They collect waste paper to sell for trees and have set up websites (网站) to spread the message of connections between humans and nature. "We want tomake environmental protection everyone's habit," says the girl. "Even a piece of paper matters."Eager to join Zhou in such meaningful work? Now you are offered advice on what to do. Last month, measures for public participation (参与) in environmental protection were published by the State Environmental protection Administration (SEPA, 国家环保总局). the special measures are expected to change the light rain of the past into a storm of environmental protection.Last year's Songhua River pollution acted as an alarm (警报) to Chinese people. According to SEPA officials, environmental pollution has become serious, and will continue so for the next 15 years.A recent survey showed that though most Chinese people care about environmental problems, they don't put their concerns into practice. One reason is that they don't know how. So the newly published measures present information about how to report environmental problems and how to join in the battle against pollution.Actually there is much you can do in daily life. Buy less to reduce waste. Don't throw away things before you have made the most use of them. Use electricity, water and gas only when necessary. Switch them off when you don't need them.Everyone can participate in making the planet suitable for future generations; Why not join in and make our world more fantastic?62. What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage?A. To praise Zhou Liqun and her friends.B. To remind us that our world is heavily polluted.C. To give us advice on how to make environmental protection everyone's habit.D. To call on people to join in the fight against the environmental pollution.63. According to the passage, what does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 3?A. The government is hoping for a heavy storm in order to make our world clean.B. People hate that it often rained gently in the past.C. Measures are expected to strengthen the action of keeping the world clean.D. The measures are sure to work.64. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Zhou Liqun dug hole along rivers.B. The students have set up websites.C. Buy less to reduce waste in daily life.D. Never use coal, water and gas unless necessary.65. What is the best title of the passage?A. Songhua River is in DangerB. Students Improve EnvironmentC. Measures to Reduce WasteD.

Even the doctor agrees I'm in good condition. I'm a bit deaf and my legs feel weak, but they are the only issue.I rode the Twistosaurus at Flamingo Land, which spins you round quite fast. I didn't choose to go on that.I'd have preferred a really fast one that went upside down. But I was told I couldn't ride something like that, because my blood pressure could drop and I might have some danger.I wasn't nervous - I don't get frightened of anything. I was securely fastened,so I knew I wouldn't fall out. The roller-coaster ride went on for three or four minutes, and it couldn't be a better experience. And I raised a lot of money for the Derbyshire,Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance fund,which was fantastic.People were saying I'd got a place in the Guinness World Records. Later, someone came to present me with the certificate. I had it on the wall in my living room,with another one that got a year earlier.My record-breaking ways really began a couple of years ago, with the ice-bucket challenge. It turned out that I was probably the oldest person in the world to do it, and the video was very popular. After that, I stared to think about whatelse I could do to raise money for different charities.I'm not sure if anyone admires all the fun I'm having. They just say I'm daft and that's about it. But I've had many good days and many exciting times. I've had a really good life. I don't think I've wasted any of it.Why didn't the author choose to go on riding the Twistosaurus? ______A. Because he was in a bad physical condition.B. Because he was told not to do so.C. Because he considered it too gentle.D. Because he thought it spun too fast.How did the author most probably react while riding the roller-coaster? ______A. He really enjoyed himself.B. He was very worried at first.C. He couldn't think much about it.D. He got frightened as it started moving.What do you know about the author from Paragraph 4? ______A. He was the oldest person in the world.B. He set a record the year before last year.C. He disliked showing off his success.D. He was eager to get certificates.What does the underlined word "daft" in the last paragraph probably mean? ______ A. healthy. B. strong.C. crazy. D. funny.CI always dreamed of studying abroad, to learn at a world-class university while further exploring the grounds on which these nations achieved new milestones of development with each passing day.To study abroad after my graduation, I could not stop seeking my dream. To take the first step, I did some brainstorming and explored opportunities on the Internet and finally decided to go for China. There were a number of reasons behind it—its advanced education system and thousands of centuries of rich culture inspired me to study there. The primary one was my curiosity how a nation has left many nations behind in a short time at its fast pace of development.So just like that, I applied, along with some of my friends, for a master's degree program at Communication University of China. I was the only one who got selected in the said program and in addition, the Chinese Scholarship Council sponsored all of my expenses. This good news was welcomed by my family.This is my seventh month in Beijing. In my experience so far, one thing that appeared to be missing was the internship (实习) which I tried to find because I want to work here after completion of my studies. After some struggles I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to work as an intern with the Center for China and Globalization (CCG). It's very exciting to work on their team as a researcher.Now I can proudly say that my decision to choose China as a study destination was the best decision I have ever made.The writer writes the first paragraph mainly to ________?A. Encourage people to pursue dreams.B. Summarize the main idea of the text.C. Explain the reason for writing the passage.D. Add some background information.What is the most important reason for the author coming to China?A. China's rich culture.B. His curiosity.C. China's advanced education system.D. His family's support.What can we learn about the author from the last paragraph?A. He is most proud of studying in China.B. He wants to be a researcher in the future.C. He plans to work in China after graduation.D. He found a job upon arriving in Beijing.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Learning and working in ChinaB. Travel experiences in ChinaC. Realization of dreams in ChinaD. Importance of having dreams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。
