Earth Day was founded in 1970 as a day of education about environmental issues, and Earth Day 2020 occurs on Wednesday, April 22—the holiday’s 50th anniversary. The holiday is now a global celebration that’s sometimes extended into Earth Week, a full seven days of events focused on green living.
By the early 1960s, Americans were becoming aware of the effects of pollution on the environment. Rachael Carson’s 1962 bestseller Silent Spring pointed out the dangerous effects of pesticides(杀虫剂) on the American countryside. Later in the decade, a 1969 fire on Cleveland’s Cuyahoga River shed light on the problem of chemical waste disposal. Until that time, protecting the planet’s natural resources was not part of the national political plan. Only a small portion of the American population was familiar with environmental issues—let alone practiced-recycling.
Elected to the U.S. Senate in 1962, Senator(参议员) Gaylord Nelson was determined to convince the federal government that the planet was at risk. In the fall of 1969, Nelson, considered one of the leaders of the modern environmental movement, announced the Earth Day concept at a conference in Seattle and invited the entire nation to get involved. He later recalled: “The response was electric. Telegrams, letters and telephone inquiries poured in from all across the country. The American people finally had an opportunity to express their concern about what was happening to the land, rivers, lakes and air.”
The first Earth Day was effective at raising awareness about environmental issues and changing public attitudes. According to the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA), “Public opinions polls(投票) indicate that in May 1971, 25 percent of the U.S. public declared protecting the environment to be an important goal, a 2,500 percent increase over 1969.”
Earth Day kicked off the “environmental decade with a bang,” as Senator Nelson later put it. During the 1970s, a number of important environmental laws were passed, among them the Clean Air Act, the Water Quality Improvement Act and the Endangered Species Act, etc. Another key development was the establishment of the EPA in December 1970, which was tasked with protecting human health and safeguarding the natural environment—air, water and land.
24.What do we learn about the circumstances in America before Earth Day was founded?
A.The overuse of pesticides had little impact on the American countryside.
B.The fire on Cuyahoga River was caused by improper chemical waste disposal.
C.The government highly valued protecting the natural resources on this planet.
D.Only a few Americans were familiar with environmental issues and practiced-recycling.
25.It can be inferred from the third paragraph that ________.
A.Nelson convinced the federal government that the planet was at risk.
B.Nelson organized the modern environmental movement all by himself.
C.The Earth Day successfully aroused the public’s interest in environmental issues.
D.The electric power supply had been cut off due to numerous telephone inquiries poured in.
26.The EPA was set up to_______.
A.collect public opinions. B.kick off the environmental decade.
C.change public attitudes. D.protect human beings and nature.
27.What do you think the author will talk about later?
A.Earth Day celebrations have grown and spread around the globe.
B.EPA protect human health and our natural environment.
C.The environmental laws come into effect.
D.Senator Nelson’s remarkable achievements.
C
America’s first transcontinental railroad, completed 150 years ago today at Promontory Summit in Utah, connected the vast United States and brought America into the modern age. Chinese immigrants contributed greatly to this notable achievement, but the historical accounts that followed often ignored their role.
Between 1863 and 1869, as many as 20,000 Chinese workers helped build the dangerous western part of the railroad, a winding ribbon of track known as the Central Pacific. At first, the Central Pacific Railroad’s directors wanted a whites-only workforce. When not enough white men signed up, the railroad began hiring Chinese men for the backbreaking labor. Company leaders were skeptical of the new recruits’ ability to do the work, but they proved themselves not only capable but even superior to the other workers.
Chinese workers cut through dense forests, filled deep narrow steep-sided valley, constructed long trestles(高架桥) and built enormous retaining walls(防护墙) -- some of which remain complete and undamaged today. All work was done by hand using carts, shovels and picks but no machinery. However, progress came at great cost: an estimated 1,200 Chinese laborers died along the Central Pacific route.
Despite these facts, Chinese workers were often left out of the official story because of their identity of foreigners. On the transcontinental railroad's 100th birthday, the Chinese workers were still not honored. It was another fifty years later that their role was gradually highlighted. To celebrate the railroad’s 150th anniversary in 2019, the California assembly passed a resolution in 2017 to recognize and honor the Chinese railroad workers by designating May 10, 2017, and every May 10 thereafter, as California Chinese Railroad Workers Memorial Day.
28.What might be the best title for the text?
A.The Birth of the Central Pacific Cost Dearly
B.May 10--A Special Day for Chinese Immigrants
C.Chinese Workers’ Contributions Gained Recognition
D.The 150th anniversary of the Central Pacific Railroad
29.What does “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Chinese laborers. B.White workers.
C.Company leaders. D.Railroad directors.
30.Why does the author make such detailed descriptions in Paragraph 3?
A.To prove Chinese workers’ superior skills.
B.To stress the danger and difficulty of the work.
C.To describe the grand scenery along the railroad.
D.To show notable achievements made by Chinese workers.
31.What does the text intend to tell us?
A.None so blind as those who won’t see. B.No pains, no gains.
C.Truth will come to light sooner or later. D.Doing is better than saying.
D
In recent years, a growing body of research has shown that our appetite and food intake are influenced by a large number of factors besides our biological need for energy, including our eating environment and our perception（感知） of the food in front of us．
Studies have shown, for instance, that eating in front of the TV（or a similar distraction） can increase both hunger and the amount of food consumed. Even simple visual cues, like plate size and lighting, have been shown to affect portion size and consumption．
A new study suggested that our short-term memory also may play a role in appetite. Several hours after a meal, people’s hunger levels were predicted not by how much they’d eaten but rather by how much food they’d seen in front of them---in other words, how much they remembered eating．
This difference suggests the memory of our previous meal may have a bigger influence on our appetite than the actual size of the meal, says Jeffrey M. Brunstrom, a professor of experimental psychology at the University of Bristol.
“Hunger isn’t controlled only by the physical characteristics of a recent meal. We have identified an independent role for memory for that meal,” Brunstrom says, “This shows that the relationship between hunger and food intake is more complex than we thought.”
These findings reflect earlier research that suggests our perception of food can sometimes trick our body’s response to the food itself. In a 2019 study, for instance, people who drank the same 380-calorie milkshake on two separate occasions produced different levels of hunger-related hormones, depending on whether the shake’s label said it contained 620 or 140 calories. Moreover, the participants reported feeling more full when they thought they’d consumed a higher-calories shake.
What does this mean for our eating habits? Although it hardly seems practical to trick ourselves into eating less, the new findings do highlight the benefits of focusing on our food avoiding TV and multitasking while eating．
The so-called mindful-eating strategies can fight distractions and help us control our appetite, Brunstrom says．
32.What is said to be a factor affecting our appetite and food intake？
A.How we perceive the food we eat．
B.What ingredients the food contains．
C.When we eat our meals．
D.How fast we eat our meals．
33.What do we learn from the 2019 study？
A.Food labels may mislead consumers in their purchases．
B.Food labels may influence our body’s response to food．
C.Hunger levels depend on one’s consumption of calories．
D.People tend to take in a lot more calories than necessary．
34.What does Brunstrom suggest we should do to control our appetite？
A.Trick ourselves into eating less． B.Choose food with fewer calories．
C.Concentrate on food while eating． D.Pick dishes of the right size．
35.What is the main idea of the passage？
A.Eating distractions often affect our food digestion．
B.Psychological factors influence our hunger levels．
C.Our food intake is determined by our biological needs．
D.Good eating habits will contribute to our health．

No-friend eating trend
When you eat lunch in a restaurant, you might see many people eating by themselves, watching videos on their phones. 36. Do you worry they’re lonely?
You probably didn’t even notice because you were looking at your own phone. The New York Post says that eating alone with electronic devices is a growing trend among young people around the world.
According to a new survey conducted by OnePoll on behalf of the US-based Highbush Blueberry Council, the average adult eats six meals alone each week and 387 meals each year.
37. Maybe not.
“The way we define ‘togetherness’ and what it means to be connected seems to be evolving as technology evolves. Keeping our relationships strong doesn’t always require being together physically,” wrote the report.
Nowadays, many young people spend more time studying and working in competitive environments. 38. Instead, it’s natural to communicate with others through text, email and social media.
Daniela Galarza, from the US, is one of these young people. She told the New York Post that she spent nearly 10 hours on her work every day. She said, “Engaging with my friends and families on social media platforms for about half an hour every day always helps me feel more connected with them. 39.”
“Today, ‘togetherness’ is more of a feeling than a physical state, and people get creative to stay connected,” a spokesperson for The Highbush Blueberry Council told the New York Post. “40.”
A.I’m not lonely any more.
B.Do you feel pity for them?
C.Being together all the time is great.
D.Does it mean there are a lot of lonely people?
E.They enjoy eating alone with electronic devices.
F.They have less time to gather and eat with their friends or families.
G.The joy of being together – however you manage it – never changes.

25.

本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了中国移民对美国第一条横贯大陆的铁路作出的巨大贡献，但随后的历史叙述忽视他们的作用。但是纸包不住火，最终中国工人做出的贡献得以被认可。
【解析】28.主旨大意题。根据第一段的Chinese immigrants contributed greatly to this notable achievement, but the historical accounts that followed often ignored their role.以及最后一段的To celebrate the railroad’s 150th anniversary in 2019, the California assembly passed a resolution in 2017 to recognize and honor the Chinese railroad workers by designating May 10, 2017, and every May 10 thereafter, as California Chinese Railroad Workers Memorial Day.最终，中国工人的贡献得以被认可，因此推断，文章主要讲述了中国移民对美国第一条横贯大陆的铁路作出的巨大贡献，但随后的历史叙述忽视他们的作用。但是纸包不住火，最终中国工人做出的贡献得以被认可。因此推断C项“中国工人的贡献得到了认可 ”为最佳标题。故选C。
29.词义猜测题。根据上文When not enough white men signed up, the railroad began hiring Chinese men for the backbreaking labor. Company leaders were skeptical of the new recruits’ ability to do the work可知，当没有足够的白人报名时，铁路开始雇用中国男子从事艰苦的劳动。公司领导对新员工的工作能力表示怀疑，因此推断划线句“但他们证明自己不仅有能力，甚至优于其他工人。”中they指代上文提的中国劳动力。故选A。
30.推理判断题。通读第三段可知，本段主要阐述中国工人穿过茂密的森林，深谷狭窄陡峭，建造了高架桥，建造了巨大的防护墙——其中一些至今仍然完整和无损。没有机械所有的工作都是用手推车、铲子和镐手工完成的。 进展付出了巨大的代价：估计有1200名中国劳工在铁路建设中死亡。因此推断详细描述修建铁路的工作过程是为了强调工作的危险和困难。故选B。
31.推理判断题。根据最后一段的 To celebrate the railroad’s 150th anniversary in 2019, the California assembly passed a resolution in 2017 to recognize and honor the Chinese railroad workers by designating May 10, 2017, and every May 10 thereafter, as California Chinese Railroad Workers Memorial Day.（为了庆祝2019年铁路150周年，加州议会在2017年通过了一项决议，指定2017年5月10日和此后每5月10日为加州中国铁路工人纪念日，以表彰和纪念中国铁路工人。）可推断，尽管历史中国工人对铁路的贡献一直不被认可，但是最终在2017年他们的奉献得以承认。故C项“纸包不住火”是文章要告诉读者的。故选C。
标题确定题属深层理解题，它要求考生在通读全文的基础上，认真分析主人公的特定心态、文章大意及作者的写作意图。在此基础上，还应做到概括性、针对性、醒目性的有机结合。
概括性原则：要求标题应在最大程度上覆盖全文，囊括文章的主要内容，体现文章的主题要旨。从全局的角度归纳概括出文章的标题。要防止本末倒置，主次不分，以点代面，以偏概全。
针对性原则：针对性原则是对标题外延的一种界定。即标题的外延既不能太大也不能太小，要量体裁衣，大小适度。
醒目性原则：标题是文章的点睛之笔，是文章的灵魂和门面。标题的好坏往往影响文章的可读性。读者往往从标题上决定文章的阅读取舍，故标题往往比较醒目，甚至比较离奇，目的是为了吸引读者的注意力，唤起读者对文章阅读的兴趣。
如第1小题，根据第一段的Chinese immigrants contributed greatly to this notable achievement, but the historical accounts that followed often ignored their role.提到中国移民对修筑铁路作出了巨大贡献，但随后的历史叙述往往忽视了他们的作用。以及最后一段的To celebrate the railroad’s 150th anniversary in 2019, the California assembly passed a resolution in 2017 to recognize and honor the Chinese railroad workers by designating May 10, 2017, and every May 10 thereafter, as California Chinese Railroad Workers Memorial Day.提到最终，中国工人的贡献得以被认可，因此可推断，文章主要讲述了中国移民对美国第一条横贯大陆的铁路做出的巨大贡献，但随后的历史叙述忽视他们的作用。但是纸包不住火，最终中国工人做出的贡献得以被认可。因此推断C项“中国工人的贡献得到了认可 ”为最佳标题，故选C。

【解析】这是一篇议论文。作者认为中国的青少年应该有一个特别的节日，称之为青少年志愿者日。众所周知，在中国大多数青少年是作为独生子女被抚养长大的。他们通常被给予太多的关心和关注。通过志愿活动，青少年可以学会为他人着想，并学到许多其它重要的人生经验。
1.考查形容词。句意：我认为中国的青少年应该有一个特别的节日，我称之为青少年志愿者日。分析句子结构可知，，修饰名词festival应用形容词。故将specially改为special。
2.考查代词。句意：众所周知，在中国，大多数青少年是作为家里的独生子长大的。分析句子可知，As is known to all众所周知，固定搭配，此处as引导非限制性定语从句，在定语从句中作主语，所以代词it是多余的。故去掉it。
3.考查冠词。the only child“独生子女”。表示特指。故将an改为the。
4.考查被动语态和主谓一致。句意：他们被给予了太多关爱和关注。此处give与they之间是被动关系，陈述事实，所以本句为一般现在时的被动语态：be done，主语是第三人称复数they，所以be动词需用are。故在usually前加are。
5.考查形容词。care“关心”和attention“注意”，为不可数名词，应用much来修饰。故将many改为much。
6.考查可数名词的数。根据句中的many可知，此处应用lesson的复数形式。故将lesson改为lessons。
7.考查介词。此处表示在Teenager Volunteer Day这一天，在特定的某一天应用on。故将In改为On。
8.考查代词。句意：在青少年志愿者日，青少年被鼓励去任何需要他们的地方做志愿者。结合句意和语境可知，此处需用人称代词they，此处的they指的是上文的teenagers。故将you改为they。
9.考查定语从句。分析句子可知，此处是一个定语从句，先行词是people是人，且在从句中做作主语，应用who或that来引导。故将which改为who/that。
10.考查动词。分析句子可知，此处的collect与help和go是并列动词，所以形式应一致。故将collecting改为collect。
