In 1969, watching the landing of Apollo 11 on the Moon on TV from his parents’ farm in Canada, Chris Hadfield was amazed and excited. On that day, at only nine years old, Chris made the most important decision of his life: He was going to be an astronaut.

There wasn’t even a training program in Canada to become an astronaut; but Chris was determined. He spent a great deal of time studying and fixing engines. After school he joined the Canadian army where he learned to fly many different types of planes. Chris did a lot of research for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in the United States and had special training. Finally, in 1995, he rode his first rocket into space.

Chris became the first Canadian astronaut to walk in space, and went on a number of space missions throughout his career. The most memorable was his five-month stay on the International Space Station (ISS) as commander, between December 2012 and May 2013. He posted on social media thousands of photos of Earth and videos of himself explaining how things work in zero gravity. His followers could watch him sleeping, brushing his teeth, washing his hands, or preparing “space” snacks in zero gravity, which turned him into a social media phenomenon.

Today, Chris travels the world giving talks about his work. He once said, “Decide in your heart of hearts what really excites and challenges you, and start moving your life in that direction. Every decision you make, from what you eat to what you do with your time tonight, turns you into who you are tomorrow. Look at who you want to be, and start sculpting yourself into that person. You may not getexactly where you thought you’d be, but you will be doing things that suit you in a profession you believe in. Don’t let life randomly kick you into the adult you don’t want to become.

24. What led Chris to make up his mind to be an astronaut?

A. The life on his parents’ farm.              B. His ability to fly various planes.

C. Apollo 11’s landing on the Moon.          D. His passion for studying engines.

25. Which of the following was best worth remembering about Chris’ career?

A. Serving in the Canadian army.            

B. Working as commander on the ISS.

C. Receiving a lot of training from the NASA.  

D. Being the first Canadian astronaut to walk in space.

26. What made Chris popular in the media?

A. The space tasks he conducted in his life.

B. The pictures and videos he posted online.

C. His strong determination to pursue his dream.

D. His great contributions to Canada’s space industry.

27. What can we learn from Chris’ words in the last paragraph?

A. Courage is what it takes to overcome difficulties.

B. Opportunities go hand in hand with challenges.

C. From small beginnings come great endings.

D. The secret of success lies in the firm aim.

C.

Dancing with your grandma for 15 minutes a week promotes positive feelings and improves her state of mind, a study claims. Doctors from Israel are encouraging younger family members to have a regular visit to their grandmas and have a dance with their grandmas.

And they found a 15 minute boogie (布吉舞) once a week lifted the spirits of the elder family members and helped strengthen the familial bond. In fact, it is called Dance Movement Therapy (DMT). DMT across the generations, complete with eye contact, was found to promote positive feelings and improve spirits for the elderly.

The grandparents reported a bright state of mind, happy memories and uplifted spirits. Dancing has also previously been linked to improved muscle strength, balance and endurance (耐力). For the grandchildren in the study, the weekly boogie changed how they view aging and allowed them to come to accept the eventual death of their elderly relatives.

The study, published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, assessed how dance affected general health of 16 dance movement therapists (治疗师) and their grandmothers. DMT was taken seriously due to the fact that it is easily accessible and does not cost more to practice. The researchers were eager to examine a low-cost method to treat issues commonly faced by an aging population— such as limited mobility and depression(抑郁症). Grandchildren were instructed to make eye contact and encourage playfulness and touch. They were also told to mirror their grandmothers’ movements and give them time and space to rest when needed.

The sessions were recorded and then analysed while diaries and interviews captured the opinions and feelings of the participants. As well as the benefits to the health of the senior, the experiment also changed the idea of the younger family members.

28．What should the young people do when dancing with their grandmas?

A．Follow the grandmas’ steps.

B．Look at the grandmas’ eyes.

C．Move the bodies as long as possible.

D．Talk with their grandmas in gentle voice.

29．What can we infer from the third paragraph?

A．Dancing brings the young happy memories and uplifted spirits.

B．Dancing enables the senior to accept aging and death of their old relatives.

C．Dancing benefits both the senior and the young in the new study.

D．Dancing is linked to improved muscle strength and balance in the new study.

30．Which of the following is the best advantage of DMT?

A．Inexpensive. B．Relaxing.

C．Attractive. D．Pleasant.

31．What is the best title for the text?

A．What does DMT Mean?

B．Dancing: a Good Way to Stop Being Senior.

C．Why Don’t You Dance 15 Minutes Every Week?

D．DMT: Good for Senior People’s Health and Family Ties.

Google Cloud is racing to roll out new features and services aimed at helping its customers maintain business during the coronavirus pandemic, including a new security product expected to launch Tuesday. The new security product includes technology that could attract more businesses, especially those in highly regulated industries, to adopt cloud services. The technology protects data while it is being processed. “We wanted people comfortable in knowing they can move to the cloud and don’t have to worry about the security of their data,” said Mr. Kurian, chief executive of the unit.

Google Cloud accelerated the development of several features for its virtual meeting product, Google Meet, in April, including one that automatically filters out background noises such as keystrokes and dog barks. Another feature automatically adjusts a user’s video with lighting variations. In 2018, the company launched an AI tool for manufactures that automatically inspects products for quality.

Google Cloud also benefited from the protocols(协议) for Black Friday, when shopping websites see a rush of online shoppers, to deal with sudden more demand for cloud services. The protocols benefited the customers in online videogames, government services, education and shopping, who needed assistance in more computing capacity.

Also, the protocols benefited many companies. Godbole, chief information officer for home improvement company Lowe’s Cos., worked with Mr. Kurian and his team in March and April to manage increased business. Lowe’s customers were doubling on projects such as those related to home offices during those months, and “Our company saw tremendous demand,” Ms. Godbole said.

The coronavirus pandemic presented a new opportunity for Google Cloud to prove its value for customers, said Plummer, chief of research for cloud computing. “Google Cloud aims to differentiate itself by being known as a provider that can handle unpredictable events,” Mr. Plummer said. It aims to do that by offering secure remote-work tools and software development tools that require minimal coding. “Trust is built in times of crisis,” he said.

32．During the coronavirus pandemic, Google Cloud is working hard to ________.

A．start more highly regulated businesses.

B．help customers to save more money.

C．make people move to the cloud more safely.

D．remove data while it is being processed.

33．What does the underlined phrase “filters out” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A．Produces.      B．Breaks.      C．Matches.         D．Removes.

34．Why does the author mention Ms. Godbole’s company?

A．To show the market needs the new products of Google Cloud.

B．To share the experience of Ms. Godbole’s company.

C．To offer an example of running a company in times of crisis.

D．To encourage people to follow the step of Godbole.

35．What does Mr. Plummer think of the new service of Google Cloud?

A．Insufficient.      B．Reliable.      C．Unpredictable.      D．Complex

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

When everything goes wrong, always look at what you have, instead of what you have lost. Because it’s not what the world takes away from you that counts; it’s what you do with what you have left.     36   

Pain is part of growing.

Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.     37    When times are tough, remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose. Remember that there are two kinds of pain: pain that hurts and pain that changes you. When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds help you grow.

    38   

Every time you get hurt, you heal. After darkness there is always light – you are reminded of this every morning, but still you often forget, and instead choose to believe that the night will last forever. It won’t. Nothing lasts forever.

Complaining changes nothing.

    39     It’s always better to attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed. It’s not over if you’ve lost; it’s over when you do nothing but complain about it. If you believe in something, keep trying. Don’t let the shadows of the past darken the doorstep of your future.

The best thing you can do is to keep going.

Don’t be afraid to get back up—to try again, to love again, to live again, and to dream again. Don’t let a hard lesson harden your heart. Life’s best lessons are often learned at the worst times and from the worst mistakes. There will be times when it seems like everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong.     40   

A．Everything in life is temporary.

B．And even if you fall short, keep going.

C．Your scars are symbols of your strength.

D．Those who complain the most, accomplish the least.

E．Here are a few tips to inspire you when you need it most.

F．That’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless life forces us to .

G．When you feel like quitting, remember that sometimes things can be right eventually.

It’s common knowledge at this point that the more education you have, the more money you’ll make. But according to a new research released on Thursday, there are also a lot of    41   .

Back in high school, Isis Harris never    42    herself working as an electrician — everyone around her was just so    43    on college.

“College was the big thing in high school,”   44    Harris, “The friends that I had there were going to college ... that’s what the big excitement was around.”

After taking some college classes and holding lots of different jobs — Harris    45    a course designed to let her    46    different jobs in the construction industry. One of the activities    47    wiring a lightbulb (灯泡).

“Wiring that lightbulb, I did it    48    and the light came on and I was like, ‘This is it!’ The light came on for me. That was the    49    for me.”

Now she’s just a few months away from becoming a licensed journeyman electrician in Portland, Ore. She spends her days    50    on a new construction site, and her    51    adds up to about $80,000 for full-time work per year.

Harris says she wishes she had found this path sooner. Back in high school, “nobody ever talked about becoming a blue-collar worker,”she says.“I think there was always a(n)    52     about this kind of job. However, it definitely provides the same type of lifestyle that a bachelor could.”

One thing that could help    53    that misconception(误解), according to the report authors, would be for schools to employ more career consultants（顾问）to    54    students through the complex web of post-high school options.

That’s how Isis Harris, in Portland, got her training to become an electrician, a career, she says, that helps her feel    55    both physically and mentally.

Fifteen years ago, I was born in a big family. I had been taught that money couldn't buy everything ever since I was a little kid. My parents are the most hard-working people I have ever seen. As much as my parents tried to teach me these values, some could only be learned through personal experiences.

As a child, I would sit in the church trying to concentrate on the words of the priest (牧师), but my attention was soon attracted by the shining gold and the diamonds worn by the Saturday churchgoers. As my eyes began to wander, I noticed men dressed in their tailored suits and shirts accompanied by women in their designer dresses with matching handbags and shoes.

My family, on the other hand, was the opposite of rich. Our hand-me-down clothes had been washed so many times that the colors had become dull and lifeless. Although this revealed the money struggles of our large family, our faces were always washed and hair neatly combed. When sitting on the old big red and white truck after the service, I pictured the lives led by those driving their brand-new cars, wishing I would be one of them.I never stopped those fantasies, even when I was in middle school. Since it was a private school, most of the children came from wealthy families. As a result, I constantly felt ashamed. Although I could hide my lack of wealth at school by wearing our school uniforms, my poverty was embarrassingly apparent on weekends with my classmates wearing designer jeans and I had no choice but to wear my sisters’ old jeans. I never fitted in with my classmates. To my relief, there was only one girl named Julie who opened her heart to me. I was attached to her like a shadow. Soon, her birthday was approaching. Julie invited me to attend her birthday party.

注意：

1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式作答。

However, I grew upset as I couldn't afford a gift. _______________________________________

语法填空：

56．which；57．competition；58．biggest;   59．a   60．Founded

61．but    62．enables      63．In       64．it   65．has offered

【分析】在过去的几年里，网络书店的竞争导致中国超过一半的书店倒闭，但是作为中国最大的私营连锁书店之一的Sisyphe书店却是成功的。这是因为Sisyphe的转型升级业务，它在购物中心开设书店是为了利用购物中心的大量消费者来卖书，同时也让人们享受到阅读和喝咖啡的乐趣。

56．考查定语从句。句意：在过去的几年里，中国超过一半的书店倒闭，这是网络书店竞争的结果。分析句子In the past few years, more than half of bookstores in China have closed down, _1__ is the result of the ___2___(compete) from online bookstores.可知，本空指代前面的句子“In the past few years, more than half of bookstores in China have closed down”，英语中可指代前面的句子，在定语从句中，要用关系词which。因此本空填which。

57．考查名词。分析句子可知，本空前有定冠词the，可知，此空为名词，因此要用动词compete的名词形式competition。故填competition。

58．考查最高级。分析语境可知此处句意是指“作为中国最大的民营连锁书店之一的Sisyphe书店的成功”。根据前面的“one of the….”可知，要用最高级，故本空要填biggest。

59．考查固定搭配。句意：Mya就是一个很好的例子。serve as…为固定搭配，意为“充当，担任”，因此本空填as。

60．考查非谓语作状语。句意：Sisyphe成立于1993年，2009年开始转型升级业务，谋求盈利。分析句子可知，found的逻辑主语是Sisyphe，二者是被动关系，根据时间状语“in 1993”可知，要用过去分词，即founded。所以填Founded。

61．考查固定搭配。句意：现在，它不仅致力于卖书，而且结合了书店、咖啡馆和创造性的艺术产品的销售功能。devote…to doing sth。其中的to为介词，所以to后要用动词的ing形式。因此本空填selling。

62．考查形容词作定语。分析句子可知，动词create在句中修饰名词cutural products，修饰名词要用形容词，故填形容词 creative。

63．考查谓语动词。句意：西西弗在购物中心开设书店是为了利用购物中心的大量消费者来卖书，同时也让人们享受到阅读和喝咖啡的乐趣。分析句子可知，本句考查谓语动词。由本句的时态可知，要用一般现在时，而主语“it”，可知，本空要用形容词able的动词形式enable，且用单数，故此空填enables。

64．考查语境及形式主语。句意：所以这样的合作是互利的。分析句子可知，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式to have such cooperation，英语中常用不定代词it作形式主语，因此本空填it。

65．考查谓语动词的时态。句意：到目前为止，政府已经对书店实行减税政策，以鼓励实体书店的发展。根据“so far”（到目前为止）可知，本空要用现在完成时。本句的主语是the government，与谓语动词offer是主动关系，故填has offered。

应用文：

Dear Mike,

It's really exciting to have you in my city this holiday, and and I'm more than happy to recommend it to you．

Located in Southwest of China, Chongqing is a popular tourist destination, attracting people all over the world. A tourist attraction that you can’t miss here is our ancient town, Ciqikou. You can buy delicate handicrafts and taste a variety of local foods including Hotpot. Plus, the night view is typical of Chongqing. As night falls, the buildings in the downtown look like colorful crystals with all lights on and the river looks like a floating silver tie.

Chongqing has a lot to offer. I prefer to guide you to explore more. At last, wish you a pleasant journey.       

Yours

Li Hua

读后续写：

One possible version:

However, I grew upset as I couldn't afford a gift. It would be such an embarrassing scene to be present without a gift. I even thought about quitting, but I was not able to bring it forth. I struggled for days but couldn't figure out any solution. One day, while helping with my hardworking parents with the housework, it suddenly occurred to me that maybe I could make a gift by myself. I immediately started my DIY project, which ended up with a toy doll. The big day finally came. I arrived at her house and handed her the box.

When she opened the gift box, my heart was too nervous to beat. I looked closely at her face, wondering if she would just laugh at me. What happened next was totally beyond my imagination. Upon seeing the doll, Julie let out a cry of excitement and she held it close to her face, saying repeatedly that it was the sweetest gift she had ever received. Her words freed me. I couldn't help smiling together with her. At that precious moment, I realized money couldn’t buy everything. It was our genuine friendship that really mattered.

M: I think I’m pretty sensitive to the weather, more so than other people I know. I love summer the most. The days are so long and the sun shines so brightly. Fall is great, too. I enjoy the colorful leaves and the mild, cool weather. Spring’s also nice. But winter … Oh I just can’t stand winter. It’s just so dark and cold all the time here. I go to work downtown in the dark, I come home in the dark. And the cold … I know winter is supposed to be cold, but in the last few years, it’s just been freezing. Winter comes every year, and every year, no one’s prepared for it. The first time it snows, everything shuts down. The trains stop, the planes stop, and no one can leave their house because no one comes to move the snow off these smaller country roads. If you try and drive on the roads, you get stuck in the snow. If you try and walk outside, you slip and fall on the ice. I think other people are affected by winter too. No one smiles that much. No one talks that much. I think I’ll move somewhere warmer down south.
