“I want to work full-time in China, honey.” An overseas call awakened the wife from sound sleep. “Why?” asked the wife with surprise, in a drowsy (昏昏欲睡的) voice, from the other side of the ocean.
In the United States, he had a great future ahead. At the age of 36, he became the youngest professor in the history of the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University, for his academic achievements. At 40, he became a tenured (终身的) chair professor at Princeton.
When everything seemed perfect and admirable to others, he firmly decided to say goodbye to Princeton University, to an affluent life in the United States, and return to China.
The news spread explosively. Many expressed confusion, many persuaded him, many made fun of him, and still many waited to have a good laugh at him.
He said patriotism is the plainest feeling of a person. Who doesn’t love his motherland, after all? In his heart, the American dream is already something past; the Chinese dream is rising.
After returning to China, he devoted all his energy, worked like crazy, and determined to do something big. He formed a life science research team. Every day, he works 12 to 16 hours at his laboratory. He is Shi Yigong, nicknamed “Da Niu” (someone with extraordinary achievements) by Tsinghua students. His given name, Yigong, comes from an idiom that means “devoted to public interest whole-heartedly”. “So far as I’m concerned, awards are of no special meaning.” Shi says calmly.
In his 18 years of study in the United States, he never forgot his Chinese dream. In the next 18 years, the Chinese dream will be more beautiful and greater by the efforts of Shi Yigong and the likes of him.
4. Why was Shi determined to return to China?
A. To serve his motherland. B. To reunite with his wife.
C. To live a quieter life. D. To make more money.
5. What does the underlined word “affluent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Normal. B. Miserable. C. Wealthy. D. Adventurous.
6. What can we know about Shi Yigong?
A. His decision was well-received. B. He doesn’t care much about fame.
C. He is the youngest professor in history. D. His Chinese dream will be realized in 18 years.
7. Why is Shi Yigong called “Da Niu” by his Tsinghua students?
A. To support his life science research. B. To praise his honesty.
C. To introduce his endless energy in work. D. To show his unusual achievements.
Climate change is an ongoing and ever-present threat to the Earth and all living things upon it. Unchecked industrialism and the burning of fossil fuels have resulted in the creation of harmful greenhouse gases. Human greed has led to massive deforestation and clearcutting of forests to make way for farmland. Pollution blocks our rivers, lakes, and oceans. The point of no return may be fast approaching.
After decades of harmful actions, many governments and businesses are now struggling to find ways to lessen some of their destructive effects and reach net-zero, which means not adding to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. One of the ways they proposed was the extensive tree-planting. The UK government, for example, has set out its plan to plant 30,000 hectares of trees annually so as to absorb carbon dioxide.
However, according to Oxfam, a British charity devoted to helping people in poor countries, those plans never bore fruit. It issued clear and strong warnings against them-the area needed for a tree-planting project of this scale to successfully lower carbon emissions to net-zero is estimated at 1.6 billion hectares, which is an area five times the size of India. That means the project would intrude (侵占) on the land presently needed to grow enough crops to feed the world’s expanding population.
Such a massive campaign of turning farmland into forest could give rise to a global interruption to agriculture, and cause food prices to rise by as much as 80% by 2050. In a world where millions of people are already going hungry, this could have disastrous results. By trying to save the planet, governments and businesses may cause many millions of people to die of starvation. This paradox (悖论) perfectly illustrates the phrase “damned if you do, and damned if you don’t.”
8. The author mentions the UK government to show ________.
A. the outbreak of climate disasters has its economic reasons
B. there is still some doubt whether the UK can reach net-zero
C. countries and companies are trying to deal with climate change
D. net-zero makes sense only when all countries make joint efforts
9. What is Oxfam’s attitude towards the extensive tree-planting?
A. Confident. B. Critical. C. Favorable. D. Unclear.
10. What is the paradox associated with the plans for tree-planting?
A. A vast area of the forest would bum down instead.
B. Bigger forests could result in a population explosion.
C. India would lose 1.6 billion hectares of agricultural land.
D. Planting trees could lead to the starvation of millions of people.
11. Which of the following can be the best tile for the test?
A. The Catch-22 of Net-zero
B. Irreplaceable Benefits of Forests
C. The Importance of Planting Trees
D. Greenhouse Gas Emission Largely Reduced
The remains of a huge building from ancient Greece have been discovered by underwater researchers working at a site of a historic battle that took place 2,500 years ago.
The monumental construction was found in the shallow waters off the coast of Salamis during excavation (挖掘) work that took place in June and July last year. The Greek Culture Ministry, which announced the discovery, said it dates back to the time of the Battle of Salamis — a naval battle between Greek and Persian states. Underwater researchers were carrying out a study of the area when they found the remains in the shallow waters. They believed it was a large public building that was used until the late Roman times, in the third century C.E.
The researchers said it would likely have been one of the main public buildings in the area. The team found many other features relating to the building and marble sculptures. This, the ministry said, appears to date back to the fourth century B.C.E.
During the 2018 study, the researchers used a new technique where a flexible barrier was constructed, allowing them to drain (排水) the area being excavated, get a better view of the site and take samples of the remains, helping them date the building.
The discovery of the building is important as it is helping the researchers reconstruct the geography of the area 2,500 years ago. At this time — 480 B.C.E. — the Battle of Salamis took place in the straits between Salamis Island and mainland Greece. Following successful invasions (入侵) by the Persian army, the Greek ships had withdrawn to Salamis. At this point Themistocles, a politician and general, convinced Greek friends to fight, a report of the battle by the U.K.’s Cardiff University notes. The Persians thought they had the advantage. They entered the straits of Salamis with a view to blocking the entrance. However, their large ships failed to operate well in the tight waterways and the Greeks were victorious. After this win, the Greeks defeated the Persians in several other key battles, ending the period of invasion.
12. What can be learned about the huge building?
A. It was ruined during a naval battle.
B. It was still used after Roman times.
C. It was built after the Battle of Salamis.
D. It was discovered in the shallow waters.
13. What’s paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Why the researchers built a barrier.
B. How the researchers drained the area.
C. Why the researchers dated the building.
D. How the researchers conducted the study.
14. What’s the meaning of studying the remains?
A. It tells people of a great politician’s achievements.
B. It shows why the Persian army carried out invasions.
C. It helps the researchers know what the area used to be like.
D. It confirms the report by the U.K.’s Cardiff University.
15. What do we know about the Battle of Salamis?
A. It ended with the Greeks’ victory.
B. It put an end to the Persians’ invasion.
C. It took place in the mainland of Greece.
D. It forced the Persians to abandon their ships.

¿What is the difference between accents and pronunciation?
____17____. A French person may speak English flawlessly (完美无瑕地), just with a French accent. That’s fine because there is no wrong or right with an accent.

¿How important is it to get an accent right?
If you’re moving to a certain part of a country, you might want to integrate better with your new community. ____19____. That’s because it shows a sense of belonging to the community you are trying to fit in with.
¿How to improve your accent?

A. Where does pronunciation emerge
B. They’re also important for those learning a new language
C. Try to adapt your speech to sound more interesting

There are too many classic literary works we should read that it’s hard to know where to start. Watch the movie version is certainly one way to get familiar with a book. Beside, the movie version usually gives you most of the important plots and characters informations. It may also help you decide if the book is worth reading it. Reading the original books is complete different. With far more characters and plot details, it allows you appreciate the beauty of the language in the book. As for which is better, it depends on that you need. If you just want to get the story, watch the movie version; for an more complete experience, the book version is definitely best.

3. 设空处概括本段内容,为本段小标题,设空处与上下段的首句句式保持一致,即应是特殊疑问句。根据“If you think back historically people were much more localized with generation after generation of families living in the same small villages and few people traveled out of that area during their lifetimes. So over many generations differences in accent emerged and became very distinct to particular areas.(如果你回想一下历史,人们更加本地化,一代又一代的家庭生活在同一个小村庄,很少有人在他们的一生中离开那个地区。所以在许多代人的时间里,口音的差异出现了,并且在特定地区变得非常明显)”可知,本段主要讲解的是不同类型的口音形成的原因;E项“Where do different types of accents come from?”(不同类型的口音从何而来?)概括本段内容。故选E。

5. 根据前文“And then learners should consider which sounds exist in the language you’re learning and then spend some time in front of the mirror practicing moving your tongue and mouth to get those new and different sounds.”(然后学习者应该考虑你正在学习的语言中存在哪些声音,然后花一些时间在镜子前练习移动你的舌头和嘴巴来获得那些新的和不同的发音。)讲述了学习者可以通过何种办法来让自己学习新的语言中的不同的发音。下文“which can sometimes even change the meaning of words.”(有时甚至可以改变单词的意思。)可知,空白处描述的内容为学习者在学习新的发音时,可能会引起单词意思改变的情形。选项G“And learners should be aware of stress and tone”(学习者应注意重音和音调)说明重音和音调是导致单词意义改变的情形,符合题意,故选G。

【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的老字号店铺荣宝斋及荣宝斋的木版印刷技艺。
1. 考查连词。句意:荣宝斋的徽章使用了“三”、“五”和“零”三个汉字。根据句中““three”, “five” “zero””可知,可知此处为并列关系,指“三”、“五”和“零”三个汉字,故空格处应用连词and,故填and。
2. 考查定语从句。句意:“三”字形似一本书,代表了荣宝斋悠久的历史传统。分析句子可知,句子为非限制性定语从句,先行词为“three”,指物,在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
3. 考查时态和主谓一致。句意:“五”代表阴阳交织,“零”代表永恒和未来的希望。分析句子可知,and前后为两个并列句,结合and前句中的represents可知,句子的时态为一般现在时。空前主语the circle of “zero”为单数名词,所以空处用单三形式means作谓语,故填means。
4. 考查语态。句意:荣宝斋位于北京。分析句子可知,句子陈述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时,“be located in…”意为“位于……”,“Rong Bao Zhai”和“locate”为被动关系,故句子应用一般现在时的被动语态,故空格处应填 located。故填 located。
5. 考查名词复数。句意:它可以用于创作艺术品和逼真地复制各种中国书法和绘画。painting“绘画作品”为可数名词,结合空前all kinds of“各种各样的”可知,此处应用名词复数。故填paintings。
6. 考查非谓语动词。句意:其中著名的版画是《韩熙载夜宴图》。该版画历时8年,使用木版1600多块,套印6000多次,标志着木版印刷的(发展)高峰。分析句子可知,took为句子的谓语,use“使用”为动词,和谓语took之间没有并列词连接,所以空白处此处用非谓语。句子主语the production与动词use为主谓关系,所以此处应使用现在分词形式。故填using。
7. 考查名词。句意同上。the为冠词,其后应跟名词作宾语。develop“发展”为动词,其名词形式为development,故填development。
8. 考查名词。句意:荣宝斋特别注意收集和保护。固定短语:pay attention to“注意”,to为介词,所以其后应跟动名词,故填collecting,故填collecting。
9. 考查固定短语。句意:馆内藏有元明清作品数千件,被誉为“小故宫”。分析句子可知,句中涉及固定短语“be honored as…”,意为“被誉为……”,故空格处应用介词“as”。故填as。
10. 考查形容词。句意:多年来,该品牌还举办了各种展览和国际艺术交流,成为中国传统文化走向世界的窗口。分析句子可知,culture“文化”为名词,所以应使用形容词作定语来修饰名词,traditional“传统的”为形容词,故填traditional。
【答案】1. too → so
2. Watch → Watching
3. Beside → Besides
4. informations → information
5. 删除it
6. complete → completely
7. appreciate前加to
8. that → what

10. best → better
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍阅读经典文学作品的建议。
1. 考查副词。句意:有太多我们应该阅读的经典文学作品,以至于很难知道从哪里开始。根据句子结构可知,此处是so…that...“如此……以至于……”引导的结果状语从句,故将too改为so。
2. 考查动名词。句意:观看电影版当然是熟悉一本书的一种方式。此句是动名词短语作主语,故将Watch改为Watching。
3. 考查副词。句意:此外,电影版通常会为您提供大部分重要的情节和角色信息。根据句意,此处表示“此外”,故用副词Besides,作状语,故将Beside改为Besides。
4. 考查名词。句意:此外,电影版通常会为您提供大部分重要的情节和角色信息。information是不可数名词,没有复数形式。故将informations改为information。
5. 考查代词。句意:有了更多的人物和情节细节,它可以让你欣赏书中语言的美丽。be worth doing表示“值得做……”。此句reading的逻辑宾语是the book,it多余。故将it删除。
6. 考查副词。句意:阅读原著是完全不同的。修饰形容词用副词,different为形容词,所以complete改用completely,故complete改为completely。
7. 考查不定式。句意:有了更多的人物和情节细节,它可以让你欣赏书中语言的美丽。短语allow sb. to do sth.表示“允许某人做某事”,故在appreciate前加to。
8. 考查宾语从句引导词。句意:至于哪个更好,这取决于你需要什么。根据句子结构可知,此句是宾语从句,缺少引导词,作动词need的宾语,表示“什么”,应用连接代词what引导。故将that改为what。
9. 考查冠词。句意:如果你只是想得到故事,那就观看电影版;为了一次更完整的体验,书版肯定更好。此处表示“泛指一次体验、经历”,且more首字母的发音为辅音音素,应用不定冠词a修饰。故将the改为a。
10. 考查比较级。句意:如果你只是想得到故事,那就观看电影版;为了一次更完整的体验,书版肯定更好。结合前文中“As for which is better”可知,此处是拿看电影和读书作比较,所以此处指读书时完整地体验整个故事的更好的办法。所以此处应用比较级。故best改为better。
