No one was bigger.
The Stones were bolder. The Who was louder. But the Beatles simply ruled the music industry, from their first single until their breakup. Everyone knew them, or thought they did. However, to understand them, you must push past the news, the myths and the lies to dig deep.
It was July 6, 1957, when the Beatles began. John Lennon, nearly 17, was performing at a school event. Paul McCartney, just 15, watched nervously. Afterward, McCartney worked up the nerve to introduce himself! He played a few songs. "He was as good as me," Lennon was impressed. "I'd have to keep him in line. He also looked like Elvis."
Just like that, McCartney was in the band. Soon, he brought along a friend, George Harrison, 14. By 1960, they had added a drummer, Pete Best. Calling themselves the Beatles, they turned professional.
By the spring of 1963, the Beatles' first album had gone to No. 1 in Britain, with several singles hitting the Top Ten. By the next year, when they reached America, they were already legends （传奇）.The Beatles were here, and so was Beatlemania. Their success opened the charts, and the world, for other British bands;
As the years went on, the Beatles' popularity held firm. But they changed and, after they quit touring in 1966, began going after separate interests.
After one more album “Abbey Road" was recorded while the tapes for “Let It Be" sat on a dusty shelf, the band split in 1969. Lennon wanted to leave earlier, privately telling McCartney. But it was McCartney who went public six months later. He also did it via a press release, using it to promote his new solo album. Both characters were then firmly on different paths, and the legendary Lennon and McCartney partnership was done.
But their songs would outlast everything.
4. What does the underlined word “ruled" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Took control of. B. Took the lead in.
C. Set restrictions on. D. Set standards for.
5. Why did Lennon include Paul McCartney in the band?
A. Because he was a good drummer.
B. Because he could bring along friends.
C. Because he was talented and handsome.
D. Because he was brave to introduce himself.
6. What can we learn about the Beatles from the passage?
A. All their albums and singles are big hits.
B. They helped other British bands develop.
C. Lennon announced their separation publicly.
D. The band split as soon as they quit touring.
7. Which can be a suitable title of the text?
A John Lennon: a legendary musician. B. Paul McCartney: the perfect partner.
C. Beatlemania: a unique phenomenon. D. The Beatles: the most popular band.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. D

Super Earths are super cool, and you should really know about them. In short, they are planets slightly bigger than the Earth. And the cool part? They might be a home for life, and they're much easier to study than regular Earths.
It's kind of amazing to realize that in the past couple decades we have confirmed detections of over 4,000 exoplanets (系外行星)，or planets orbiting other stars. As soon as astronomers started finding exoplanets, they realized what a wonderful zoo we live in. Planets orbiting dead remains of stars. Planets bigger than Jupiter. Purple planets. Super Earths orbiting within the Habitable Zones of their parent stars - the place where liquid water can potentially exist and where life like our own has the best shot of surviving.
Here's the thing. Astronomers are searching for Earth 2.0 a copy of our own system somewhere out there in the universe. We haven't found one yet, but we have found a bunch of Super Earths. So, if we want to play the “look for life” game, we've got to play with the hand that we've been dealt.
Here's how we play that game. Astronomers detect distant exoplanets through something called the transit method. When a planet's orbit just so happens to line up just right, it will periodically cross the face of its parent star from our point of view.
When the exoplanet crosses in front of the star, the light from that star dims(变暗淡)just a little bit. By staring at lots and lots of stars, we can look for this telltale dimming and spot an exoplanet. This method is much better at finding bigger planets than smaller ones, because the bigger planets make more dimming. So, we tend to find more Super Earths than normal Earths.
8. Why might Super Earths be a home for life?.
A. Because they are much easier to study.
B. Because they live in the wonderful zoo.
C. Because they orbit within the Habitable Zones.
D. Because they are slightly bigger than the Earth.
9. What does the underlined part probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A. We have already found an Earth 2.0.
B. We should make full use of what we have.
C. We have discovered life signs on Super Earths.
D. We should play the game with our own hands.
10. What can we expect of the “transit method" in the future ?
A. It will help a planet line up with its parent star.
B. It will help exoplanets cross in front of the starts.
C. It will help the parent star become much dimmer.
D. It will help astronomers find more Super Earths.
11. Whafs the purpose of this text?
A. To introduce an interesting game. B. To recommend a detecting method.
C. To report the finding of Earth 2.0. D. To share the knowledge of astronomy.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要文章讲述了天文学家探测系外行星，发现很多有生命生存机会的超级星球，并讲述了一些相关信息。
【8题详解】

【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Astronomers are searching for Earth 2.0, a copy of our own system somewhere out there in the universe. We haven't found one yet, but we have found a bunch of Super Earths. So, if we want to play the “look for life” game, we've got to play with the hand that we've been dealt.”（天文学家一直在寻找地球2.0，一个我们自己系统的副本，就在宇宙的某个地方。我们到现在还没有找到一个，但是我们发现了一堆超级地球。所以，如果我们想要玩“寻找生命”的游戏，we've got to play with the hand that we've been dealt.”）可知，虽然我们没有找到地球2.0，但是我们找到了很多超级地球，所以我们一定要充分利用我们现在所拥有的东西。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Astronomers detect distant exoplanets through something called the transit method.”（天文学家通过凌日法探测遥远的系外行星）可知，“transit method”可以帮助天文学家探测更多的超级星球。故选D。

D
The human body can't handle overheating. The processes that keep us alive work best within a certain temperature between about 36° C and 37° C, depending on the person.
If someone's body temperature goes higher, the body's primary response to heat is to try and get rid of it. To get rid of the overheat, blood vessels(血管) expand. At the same time, the heart begins beating faster. That pushes blood flow to the skin. There, the blood can release heat to cool down. Meanwhile, sweating kicks in to cool the skin.
But there is a limit to how much the body can adjust. That limit depends on an individual's health, as well as the temperature and humidity(湿度) outside. If the outside temps are hotter than the body, blood at the skin won't release heat. And where humidity is high, sweating won't cool the skin. That's because the sweat can't evaporate(蒸发). In 2008, two scientists suggested that humans can't cool off if they spend extended time at a temperature over 35° C.
No one is resistant to heat. But it hits some groups harder than others. The elderly are considered the weakest. One reason: They have fewer sweat glands(汗腺). But their bodies also respond more slowly to rising temperatures. Children too, are at risk because they haven't fully developed the ability to regulate heat. People with certain diseases such as diabetes and heart disease also can have trouble cooling their bodies. And people living in poverty often lack air conditioning and other resources to help them beat the heat.
Many people see heat as more of an annoyance than a threat. But climate change, extreme heat and human health are all connected. As Earth's temperatures climb, extreme heat waves will probably become more common, endangering more people.
12. What pushes blood flow to the skin according to Paragraph 2?
A. Blood vessels expand. B. Blood releases the heat.
C. The heart beats faster. D. Sweating cools the skin.
13. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The hidden dangers of extreme heat. B. The findings of a study in 2008.
C. The influences of heat on the body. D. The limits of the body's adjustments.
14. Who is most likely to be the victim of overheating?
A. The old. B. The young. C. The sick. D. The poor.
15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. People haven't realized the danger of overheat.
B. The rising temperatures have claimed many lives.
C. Improper human activities cause climate change.
D. The Earth is unsuitable to live on in the future.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. A
【解析】

主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“But there is a limit to how much the body can adjust. That limit depends on an individual's health, as well as the temperature and humidity(湿度) outside. (但身体的调节能力是有限的。这个限度取决于个人的健康状况，以及外界的温度和湿度。)”可知，该段主要讲述了身体调节的局限性，故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“No one is resistant to heat. But it hits some groups harder than others. The elderly are considered the weakest.( 没有人耐热。但它对某些群体的打击比其他群体更大。老年人被认为是最虚弱的。)”可知，老年人最有可能成为温度过热的受害者，故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Many people see heat as more of an annoyance than a threat. (许多人认为温度过高带来的更多的是一种烦恼而不是威胁。)”可推断，人们还没有意识到温度过高的危险。故选A。

【解析】
【分析】本文是议论文，主要谈论互联网给人们带来的好处和问题。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意：我们几乎可以在网上完成任何事情——通过接入互联网来获得一些真正改变生活的优势。access to表示“……的通道”，符合句意，故填to。
【37题详解】
考查最高级。句意：最大的优势之一是信息量巨大。根据搭配one of the+最高级+名词复数，表示“最……的……之一”，此处应填最高级，故填greatest。
【38题详解】
考查不定式。句意：在图书馆里找到一本书所花的时间里，只需点击一下鼠标，就可能找到几乎所有我们想知道的东西。it takes time to do sth，表示“花费时间做某事”，此处应用不定式形式，故填to find。
【39题详解】
考查形式主语。句意：在图书馆里找到一本书所花的时间里，只需点击一下鼠标，就可能找到几乎所有我们想知道的东西。本句是不定式做主语，根据句式it is+形容词+to do sth，句子开头应用it作形式主语，故填it。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：难怪互联网现在已经成为大多数人找到信息的第一个地方。本句是定语从句，从句修饰先行词the first place，先行词在从句中做地点状语，应用关系词where，故填where。
【41题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：自从发明以来，互联网已经使我们的生活变得难以置信的方便，电子商务提供了各种各样的商品和服务。本句主语是it，谓语动词是invent，主谓之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，根据since，此处表示过去发生的事情，since引导的从句用过去时，故用一般过去时的被动语态，故填was invented。
【42题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：你可以通过外卖应用和网站让外卖送到你身边。本句主语是you，谓语动词是have，句子中无连词连接，所以use是非谓语动词，use和主语you之间是主动关系，应用现在分词形式，故填using。
【43题详解】
考查连词。句意：然而，尽管互联网带来了许多有价值的优点，但网络连接也有它的问题。结合句意，前文说互联网有优点，后文说有问题，所以此处表示转折，应用连词while/ though / although，表示“虽然，尽管”，故填while/ though / although。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：正如任何伟大的发明一样，我们必须意识到这些问题，小心正确地使用互联网。此处应用副词修饰动词use，故填properly。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意：只有这样，互联网才能成为每个人发现、惊奇和灵感的地方。这真是一个没有国界的世界。a place of+名词，表示……的地方，此处应用名词形式，故填discovery。

第二节（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一个完整的短文。
Aaron Wylie, a bus driver, lived in Halifax, Nova Scotia. His mom, Sandra, who had liver disease, lived with his dad a four-hour drive away in Saint John, New Brunswick. He hadn't seen them for a long time because of coronavirus.
Extremely shocked when he learned Sandra's disease was terminal, all Wylie wanted to do was find a way to see her while there was still time. But with pandemic travel restrictions and budget limits , it looked as if the visit might be pretty much impossible.
Then he got an idea.
Wylie had a Class-1 license, which allowed him to drive a truck. Since truck drivers are classed as necessary workers, he thought if he could get a chance to deliver necessary medicines to New Brunswick, he might just be able to make the trip happen after all.
Hoping for a miracle, he placed an ad on the popular network Facebook.
“I know this is a bit of an odd request but I'm looking for a class-1 position, he wrote. "I am looking for a route that will run Halifax to Saint John... I am willing to drive for free!”
He went on to explain the details of his mom's disease and said he needed to find a way to Saint John, both legally and as soon as possible.
Wylie admitted he wasn't expecting a lot of feedback on his post, but almost at once, offers of trucking jobs, financial help — and even someone willing to test as a live liver donor for his mom-began streaming in.
The request got more than 5,000 shares on Facebook. A medicine company offered him a chance to drive trucks from Halifax to Saint John, delivering necessary medicines regularly. They said they would provide him with a pass but he was to get vaccinated and tested for COVID-19 before and after making the trip. He was more than happy to accept it.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
With all the necessary preparations made, Wylie set off.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
About four hours later, Wylie arrived at the hospital in Saint John.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
With all the necessary preparations made, Wylie set off. On his truck, there were oxygen tanks and boxes of medicines. There were much fewer vehicles on the road due to the pandemic. He had to show his pass and have his temperature checked every time he went to the highway service area for a rest. But Wylie was glad that he could help transfer the medical supplies. What’s more, he was coming nearer and nearer to his hometown, and his mom.
About four hours later, Wylie arrived at the hospital in Saint John. With the truck unloaded and paperwork done, Wylie applied to visit his mom. Of course, there were a lot of checks before he was admitted in. But it was worth all the trouble. Eventually he could hug his mom, before it was too late. Tears rolled down his cheeks. He could not save his mom from her disease, but he felt lucky for being able to manage this trip and accompany her during her last days.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公Aaron Wylie的母亲患了严重的肝病，Aaron Wylie因为新冠疫情无法去圣约翰看望母亲，后来他想到了一个办法，因为他是卡车司机，他在网上发了帖子寻找去母亲所在城里的司机的工作，出乎意料的是，他得到了许多人的帮助的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“做好了一切必要的准备工作后，Wylie出发了。”可知，第一段可描写Wylie开车去Saint John的经过。
②由第二段首句内容“大约四个小时后，Wylie到达了圣约翰的医院。”可知，第二段可描写Wylie与母亲会面以及他的感受。
2.续写线索：开车去圣约翰——路上的遭遇——见到母亲——内心的感受

①出示：show/exhibit
②检查：check/examine
