My wife and I usually don’t keep houseplants. But after I was told I had cancer I wanted to be around some life. When my friend Mitch gave me a lucky bamboo plant in a bowl, we decided to place the plant next to the living room window across from the couch.

I told Hannah I wanted to care for the plant myself. When it didn’t immediately turn yellow or brown or lose all of its leaves, I was pleasantly surprised. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of achievement at a time when I sometimes felt useless. As a physician, I was used to being the one who provided care, not the one who received it. Watering the plant taught me I could still be a caregiver. 

Over the next few months, I recovered from surgery and completed the first round of chemotherapy (化疗). Even after I returned to work, I continued to care for the plant. Soon, it had nearly doubled in height and its leaves were shiny and lush. Both the tree and I were thriving.

Then, mysteriously, it began to show signs of stress. No matter what I did, the leaves kept browning and dropping to the floor. I grew more and more frustrated and uneasy.

“I can’t even care for a simple plant!” I yelled. “I’m failing!” I couldn’t shake the feeling that the plant had become a symbol of my own health. I realized I had wrongly connected my careful nurturing of the plant — something over which I had at least some control—with my own survival — something over which I had no control.

When my tumor (肿瘤) returned, it would not be because of any failure on my part. As my anxiety decreased, I began to research how to heal the plant. After moving it under a sunny window, we both began to thrive again.

Whenever I look at the tree in its new pot, I think of Mitch and all the people who supported me. If the plant outlives me, I hope it will comfort Hannah and remind her that our large community will continue to nurture her after I am gone.

A. Weak. B. Clean. C. Unique. D. Thick.

7、What’s the author’s purpose in writing the article?

A. To describe his love for lucky bamboos. 

B. To share his experience of growing a plant.

C. To encourage people to keep houseplants.

D. To express appreciation for his friends.

If you or people around you have had a fever recently, don’t panic as it may not be the coronavirus. The influenza (流感) virus and the norovirus are probably to blame.

This winter, the US saw a peak in influenza infections. Data released by Beijing Center for Disease Prevention and Control showed that influenza was the most prevalent (流行的) virus in Beijing between Feb 13 and 19. Symptoms (症状) of influenza are fever, cough, runny nose, body aches, etc. 

However, a report showed that the positive rate in the reported influenza-like cases was 23 percent, which was lower than the 34 percent from the same period last year. Influenza symptoms can disappear after 3-7 days for the majority of people. Yet influenza vaccines can easily solve the problem. Antibodies (抗体) are able to be formed two to four weeks after entering the body.  

Norovirus can be another cause of fever. Symptoms mainly involve diarrhea (腹泻) and vomiting (呕吐). It spreads through the poop or vomit of an infected person. However, the norovirus isn’t scary as most people can recover within two to three days. Seeing a doctor is a must if the patient experiences dehydration (脱水), with symptoms such as having little urine (尿液).

Regardless of the type of virus, learning to prevent and control the spread is important for everyone. It includes three measures: protecting the vulnerable (脆弱人群), controlling the source of infection and cutting the spread. For example, healthy members of a family need to disinfect (消毒) the environment and air out rooms while taking care of the sick.

8、What is an effective solution to influenza infection according to the text?

A. Eating healthily.  B. Getting vaccinated.

C. Drinking plenty of water. D. Avoiding public places.

9、What are the main symptoms of norovirus?

A. Cough and runny nose. B. Sore throat and body aches.

C. Diarrhea and vomiting. D. Fever and having little urine.

10、What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A. Suggestions for infected people. B. The necessity to contain the spread.

C. Ways to stop the spread of viruses. D. People who are at risk from the viruses.

27、答案：extremely；be considered；meaning；which；to present；as； requirements；a；appealing；it

解析：①考查副词。句意：今天我非常高兴和大家分享中国山水画。提示词修饰形容词happy，应用副词extremely作状语，意为“非常”。故填extremely.
②考查动词语态。句意：中国山水画被认为是一种令人赞叹的艺术形式。提示词是句中谓语动词,与主语Chinese landscape painting之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，空格前有情态动词can, be动词用原形。故填be considered。
③考查非谓语动词。句意：汉语中“山水”一词由两个字组成，它们的意思是山和水。分析句子可知，“(mean)mountains and water”作后置定语修饰名词characters, mean是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语characters之间是主动关系，应用现在分词表主动。故填meaning。
④考查定语从句。句意：它与道家哲学相联系，道家哲学强调与自然世界的和谐。分析句子可知，空格处为限制性定语从句，修饰先行词Daoism，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
⑤考查非谓语动词。句意：当中国山水画画家在创作他们的作品时，他们并不试图呈现他们在自然中所看到的图像，而是他们对自然的思考。attempt to do.是固定搭配，意为“尝试去做……”，跟不定式作宾语。故填to present。
⑥考查介词。句意：中国山水画家与书法家使用相同的材料和基本技术，他们的作品也以相同的标准来评判。the same...as...是固定搭配，意为“和……一样的……”。故填as。
⑦考查名词。句意：中国山水画涉及一系列复杂的要求，包括平衡、构图和安排。根据句意，
提示词在句中作宾语，用名词requirement；a set of...意为“一套；一组”，修饰复数名词。故填requirements。
⑧考查冠词。句意：中国元素理论包括五种元素，代表自然界的大量部分，它被用于确定绘画中颜色的使用和元素的位置。a mass of...是固定短语，意为“大量的”。故填a。
⑨考查非谓语动词。句意：中国山水画如此吸引人，你应该自己去画一画！提示词在句中作表语，表明主语Chinese landscape painting的特征，用-ing形容词appealing，意为“吸引人的”。故填appealing。
⑩考查代词。句意：中国山水画如此吸引人，你应该自己去画一画！give it a go是固定短语，意为“试一试”。故填it。

28、答案：Dear Chris,
