Nicole is growing up every day. As time passes by, along with the new skills mastered has come a talent for getting into trouble. After the first birthday she gets more curious, fearless and mobile, while still clueless about the consequences of her actions. Sometimes when you enter the washing room,you’ll find the whole roll of toilet paper unrolled and lying on the ground. Sometimes when you enter the study you find she is emptying the contents of drawers onto the floor. One time when she was trying to pull a drawer out, it fell of on the floor. Immediately,she burst into a big cry.
I understand babies don’t know right from wrong, and their actions can’t be considered naughty,because they learn about the world by experimenting, observing cause and effete. I’m not going to stop her explorations most of the time, but I’m worried about the safety issue indeed. Before, I could deposit her in a safe spot lo keep both home and her from harm; now, no such paradise exists. And for the first time the question of discipline has come to my mind.
There is no question that children need discipline. According to Magda Cerber, an infant expert,“Lack of discipline is not kindness; it is neglect. ”In her eyes,loving our children does not mean keeping them happy all the time and avoiding power struggles. Often it is doing what feels hardest—saying“No” and meaning it.
For me, carrying out effective discipline is one of the toughest tasks of parenting, a seemingly never-ending test of wills between Nicole and me. But the good thing is that, although I continue to meet opposition from Nicole when I stop her potentially dangerous actions,I find gradually she accepts limits. Now she has got the idea that they’re things she can’t play with and can’t do. Can’t play with laptops. Can’t touch eclectic wires. Not everything into mouth.
”Waiting to introduce discipline into a child’s life much later than len months could make the task much more difficult. . . ”(What to Expect the First Year,by Heidi Murk-off) I am so grateful to have this book on hand. It makes a first-time mother a qualified caregiver.
4. In Paragraph 1,the author illustrates her idea by
A. listing statistics B. giving examples
C. making comparisons D. explaining causes
5. According to Magma Gerber,loving our children is
A. doing the toughest things for them
B. avoiding making them feel powerful
C. setting limits for them when necessary
D. saying“No” to them as often as possible
6. What can we learn about the author from the text?
A. She lacked experience as a new mother.
B. She thought it easy to discipline Nicole.
C. She slopped Nicole’s exploration all the time.
D. She hesitated about disciplining her daughter.
7. What is the text?
A. A news story. B. A research report.
C. A personal essay. D. A persuasive letter.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己的育儿经历，来讨论什么样的育儿方式才是好的。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。 根据第一段中“Sometimes when you enter the washing room,you’ll find the whole roll of toilet paper unrolled and lying on the ground. Sometimes when you enter the study you find she is emptying the contents of drawers onto the floor. One time when she was trying to pull a drawer out, it fell of on the floor. Immediately,she burst into a big cry.(有时，当你走进洗手间，你会发现一整卷卫生纸摊开躺在地上。有时当你走进书房，你会发现她正在把抽屉里的东西倒在地板上。有一次，当她试图把一个抽屉拉出来时，抽屉掉到了地上。她立刻放声大哭起来)”可知作者用举例的方式阐述了她的观点，故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In her eyes, loving our children does not mean keeping them happy all the time and avoiding power struggles. Often it is doing what feels hardest—saying ‘No’ and meaning it.(在她看来，爱我们的孩子并不意味着让他们一直快乐，避免权力斗争。通常是做感觉最艰难的事——说“不”并认真地说)”可知在Magda Gerber看来，爱孩子并不意味着让他们一直开心和避免(亲子关系中的)权力争斗，而常常是做一件最难的事——严肃认真地拒绝他们。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第一句 “For me, carrying out effective discipline is one of the toughest tasks of parenting(对我来说，实施有效的管教是为人父母最艰难的任务之一)”可知B选项错误；根据第二段“I’m not going to stop her explorations most of the time(大多数时候我不会阻止她的探索)”可知C选项错误；由第三段首句“There is no question that children need discipline.(毫无疑问，孩子们需要管教)”可知D选项错误；再由文章最后一句中“It makes a first-time mother a qualified caregiver.(它使第一次做母亲的人成为合格的照顾者)”可推知A为正确选项。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了作者规范孩子的实践过程和心得体会，再根据““Waiting to introduce discipline into a child’s life much later than len months could make the task much more difficult. . . ”(What to Expect the First Year,by Heidi Murk-off)(“在孩子的生活中引入纪律的时间要比几个月晚得多，这可能会让任务变得困难得多……”(《第一年会有什么》，海蒂·莫克夫著))”这是，报告的写作格式。故选C项。
C
According to the American Chemistry Council, in 2018 in the United States, 27million tons of plastic ended up in landfills compared lo just 3.1 million tons that were recycled. Worldwide the numbers are similarly bad, with just 9% of plastic being recycled according to a recent OFCD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development)report. The statistics are even worse for certain types of pastie. For example, out of 80,000 lens of polystyrene containers generated in the United States, a negligible amount(less than 5,000 tons) was recycled.
Now, researchers at the University of Queensland have found that a species of worm with an appetite for polystyrene could be the key to plastic recycling on a mass scale. They discovered that the Zophobas morio also called “super-worm” can eat through polystyrene, thanks to a bacterial enzyme (酶) in its “Stomach”. Dr. Chris Rilke and his team from UQ’s School of Chemistry and Molecular Bioscience fed super-worms different diets over a three-week period, with some given polystyrene, some outer skin of grain separated from the flour, and others pul on a fasling diet.
“We found the super-worms fed a dict of just polystyrene not only survived, but even had slight weight gains,” Dr. Rilke said. “This suggests the worms can get energy from the polypropylene,most likely with the help of their internal micro-organisms. They are like mini recycling plants, tearing up the polystyrene with their mouths and then feeding it to the bacteria in their ‘stomach’. ”
Co-author of the research, PhD candidate Jiarui Sun, said they aimed to grow the bacteria in the lab and further test their ability to break down polystyrene. “We can then look into how we can upgrade this process lo a level required for an entire recycling plant,” Ms. Sun said.
8. Which of the following best describe the current plastic recycling?
A. Inefficient. B. Unpredictable.
C. Inconsistent. D. Unconventional.
9. What is the Zophobas morio capable of according to the research?
A. Turning polystyrene into energy.
B. Feeding the bacteria in the mouth.
C. Eating through any type of plastic.
D. Gaining weight on a fasting dict.
10. How will those researchers continue the research?
A. By testing different abilities of the bacteria.
B. By experimenting with large-scale production.
C. By establishing a modern recycling factory.
D. By growing and breaking down the worm.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. The severity of plastic pollution.
B. The future of recycling industry.
C. Super-worm’s commercial success.
D. Super-worm’s ability to digest plastic.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了目前全球的塑料回收率很低，全文围绕科学家发现的一种专门吃塑料的“超级蠕虫”展开。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Worldwide the numbers are similarly bad, with just 9% of plastic being recycled according to a recent OFCD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) report.(世界范围内的塑料回收情况同样糟糕，根据经济合作与发展组织最近的一份报告，只有9%的塑料被回收)”可推知，现在的塑料回收效率不高。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段前两句““We found the super-worms fed a dict of just polystyrene not only survived, but even had slight weight gains,” Dr. Rilke said. “This suggests the worms can get energy from the polypropylene,most likely with the help of their internal micro-organisms. They are like mini recycling plants, tearing up the polystyrene with their mouths and then feeding it to the bacteria in their ‘stomach’. ”(“我们发现，用聚苯乙烯喂食的超级蠕虫不仅存活了下来，而且体重还略有增加，”里尔克博士说。“这表明蠕虫可以从聚丙烯中获得能量，很可能是在它们体内微生物的帮助下。它们就像小型回收工厂，用嘴撕碎聚苯乙烯，然后把它喂给‘胃里’的细菌。”)”可知，Zophobas morio能够将聚苯乙烯转化为能量。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Co-author of the research, PhD candidate Jiarui Sun, said they aimed to grow the bacteria in the lab and further test their ability to break down polystyrene. “We can then look into how we can upgrade this process lo a level required for an entire recycling plant,” Ms. Sun said.(该研究的合著者、博士生孙佳瑞表示，他们的目标是在实验室中培养这种细菌，并进一步测试它们分解聚苯乙烯的能力。“然后研究怎么升级降解过程达到可以应用到整个回收厂的程度，”Jiarui Sun说)”可知，研究人员将通过大规模生产的实验进行研究。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段前两句“Now, researchers at the University of Queensland have found that a species of worm with an appetite for polystyrene could be the key to plastic recycling on a mass scale. They discovered that the Zophobas morio also called “super-worm” can eat through polystyrene, thanks to a bacterial enzyme (酶) in its “Stomach”.(现在，昆士兰大学的研究人员发现，一种喜欢聚苯乙烯的蠕虫可能是大规模回收塑料的关键。他们发现，这种被称为“超级蠕虫”的Zophobas morio可以通过聚苯乙烯吃东西，这要感谢它“胃”里的一种细菌酶)”可知，全文围绕科学家发现的一种专门吃塑料的“超级蠕虫”展开。由此可知，D项“Super-worm’s ability to digest plastic.(超级蠕虫消化塑料的能力)”符合题意。故选D。
D
Anyone who’s tried different weight-loss diets is probably familiar with their pitfalls. Low-calorie diets often leave you tired and hungry. Low-fat diets are also tough to follow and, contrary lo popular belief, they do not seem lo prevent heart disease.
Another diet trend, intermittent fasting, takes a different approach. Rather than limiting what you cat, this diet limits when you cat. It normally involves eating only during a certain time window, usually eight hours, over a single day. For example, you would eat only during the hours of 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. and then fast during the other 16 hours. For some people, thal change may be easier to manage,says Dr. Eric Rim, professor of epidemiology and nutrition at the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health.
Short-termism studies suggest that people stick to intermittent fasting diets as well as or better than they do to other diets. And according to a 2019 review article in the journal Nutrients, intermittent fasting promotes weight loss and may reduce risk factors linked to heart disease, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and unhealthy blood lipid levels.
“However, we are currently unsure about how well this diet works over the long term,”says Dr. Rim, noting that there are just two long-term studies of intermittent fasting,each lasting a year. Nor are there large populations of people who’ve followed this eating pattern for years. That’s in contrast to two other diets linked to a healthy heart and healthy body size—the Mediterranean diet and a vegetarian diet.
Some experts add that intermittent fasting diets typically don’t specify what foods you should eat. ”As a nutritional epidemiologist, that makes me a little uncomfortable,“ Dr. David Mushen admits. Eating burgers and French fries five days a week and a single breakfast sandwich on your low-calorie day wouldn’t be-healthy, he says. But with any diet, it’s often a good idea to ease into the changes. You could start by trying a 5:2 diet or time-resisted eating. Once you start losing weight, you can gradually introduce more healthy foods, he suggests.
12. The underlined word“pitfalls”in the first paragraph means
A. problems B. procedures
C. Alternatives D. assumptions
13. Why does Rim mention the Mediterranean diet?
A. To demonstrate the appropriate approach to dieting.
B. To show uncertainty about the effect of the new trend.
C. To illustrate the popularity of low-calorie eating patterns.
D. To stress the importance of a healthy heart and body size.
14. What does Dr. David Mushen suggest?
A. Giving priority lo nutrition.
B. Conducting further research.
C. Losing weight step by step.
D. Proceeding with extreme caution.
15. What might be the best title for the text?
A. Ready to Restrict Your Dict?
B. Time to Try Intermittent Fasting
C. What’s Wrong with Intermittent Fasting
D. How Different Weight-loss Methods Work?
【答案】12 A 13. B 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要提出减肥节食的问题，并说明新的节食方法一断食疗法(间歇性节食)。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段划线词后句子“Low-calorie diets often leave you tired and hungry. Low-fat diets are also tough to follow and, contrary to popular belief, they do not seem to prevent heart disease(低热量饮食通常会让你又累又饿。低脂饮食也很难遵循，而且与普遍的看法相反，它们似乎并不能预防心脏病)”可知其为减肥那些“坑”，故选A项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“That’s in contrast to two other diets linked to a healthy heart and healthy body size—the Mediterranean diet and a vegetarian diet.(这与另外两种与健康心脏和健康体型有关的饮食形成了对比——地中海饮食和素食死亡)”可知，新的节食风尚缺少长期的可靠实验数据和大量实践人群，与“the Mediterranean diet and a vegetarian diet(地中海饮食和素食)” 这两种节食法形成对比，因此，提到其它被证实有效的节食法是为了进一步体现新的节食法缺少可靠实验数据支撑其有效性，故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段Dr. David Mushen提到“it’s often a good idea to ease into the changes(慢慢地进行改变通常是个好主意)”和“gradually introduce more healthy foods(逐步引入更多的健康食品)”可知C项：Losing weight step by step. (一步步减肥)为正确选项。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段提出减肥节食的问题，第二段说明新的节食方法一断食疗法(间歇性节食)，第三、四段提供相关研究证据，最后一段专家提出质疑和建议，文章的核心为介绍“intermittent fasting(断食疗法)”，故选B项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Many people consider peer pressure a negative thing. ___17___. People, especially teens and young adults, may be more likely to do prosocial behaviors when they see people their own age doing the same things. Evidence shows that teens with friends who volunteer are more likely to volunteer themselves.
Research suggests peer pressure sometimes begins in elementary school. ___18___. Some may be isolated by members of the larger group. Children may begin to worry about balancing a sense of loyalty to their friends with fairness to others.
Research has long shown that peer pressure can increase the risk of someone trying drugs, alcohol, or cigarettes. ___19___. While some may experiment with alcohol or drugs once or twice and decide it’s not for them, others who begin using a substance may find it difficult to quit.
___20___. Some children find it becomes more difficult to go against the group over time. But it’s important to realize that not only do younger children face peer pressure, they are also able to stand up to it.

【答案】16. C 17. A 18. E 19. D 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了同辈压力。
【16题详解】
空前说“However, the larger culture can also bring about peer pressure.(然而，更大的文化也会带来同辈压力)”，空处位于段末，应总结上文。C选项“Unconsciously, we are all influenced by people around us.(不知不觉中，我们都会受到周围人的影响)”符合语境，承接上文。故选C。
【17题详解】
前文说“Many people consider peer pressure a negative thing.(很多人认为同辈压力是个消极的事物)”和下文“People, especially teens and young adults, may be more likely to do prosocial behaviors when they see people their own age doing the same things.(人们，尤其是青少年和年轻人，在看到同龄人做同样的事情时，可能更有可能做出亲社会的行为)”说明“同辈压力”也可以让年轻人更可能有亲社会行为和做志愿者，由此推知空处与上文为转折关系。A项“However, this isn’t always the case.(然而，情况并非总是如此)”符合语境，故选A。
【18题详解】
前文提出“Research suggests peer pressure sometimes begins in elementary school.(研究表明有时候同辈压力从小学就开始出现)”，E项“At this age, group values and routine begin to form among children.(在这个年龄，孩子们开始形成群体价值观和日常习惯。)”中“at this age”与“小学”对应，“begin to form(开始形成)”也和语境对应，因此E选项符合语境，故选E。
【19题详解】
根据空后的“While some may experiment with alcohol or drugs once or twice and decide it’s not for them, others who begin using a substance may find it difficult to quit.(有些人可能会尝试过一两次酒精或毒品，然后认为不适合自己，而有些人开始使用某种物质后可能会发现很难戒掉)”可知，有的人更容易受同辈压力的影响而做出错误的事情。D选项“Certain people are more affected by peer pressure than others.(有些人比其他人更容易受到同辈压力的影响)”符合语境，故选D。
【20题详解】
作为末段的首句，应该为该段的主题句，由空后的“Some children find it becomes more difficult to go against the group over time.(有些孩子发现，随着时间的推移，反抗群体变得更加困难)”可知，本段主要讲的是应对同辈压力可能是困难的，因此B选项“Coping with peer pressure can be tough.(应对来自同辈的压力是很困难的)”可作为主题句，故选B。

A young person who was academically excellent applied for a manager’s post in an international company. He passed the written exam with ease, and in the group interview that followed, he impressed the interviewers with willy remarks, passion for work, and creative plans for the company’s future. After that, this young man had to face the final interview by the company’s director.
The young man walked into the manager’s office, feeling he could conquer the whole world with just one hand. The director shook hands with the young man and noticed the excitement and pride in his eyes. He looked into the young man’s resume(简历)and saw that the young person did exceptionally well throughout his study life. With a satisfied smile, the director started questioning him.
“Did you ever obtain any scholarship in your school or college?”
”No,“ replied the young man. ”Then who paid for your education?“
“My father passed away when I was three. It was my mother who paid for my tuition fees. She’s a farmer and works all day in the fields,”said the young man.
The director nodded and asked the young man to show his hands. Though confused, the young man held out his hands hesitantly, which were smooth and soft. Then the director asked if the young man had ever helped his mother with farm work. The young man said:"No, she always wanted me to focus on my academic work. Besides, she knows her work well and could do everything much faster than I could.”
Learning the reply, the director told the young man that when he returned to his home that day,he should clean his mother’s hands,and after that, he could come back and see him and report what he learned. Feeling there was a chance for him to get the job, the young man was delighted. When he returned home with a spring in his feel, he cheerfully requested his mother to let him clean her hands. Listening to this strange request, his mother felt astonished but happy. With mixed emotions, she showed her hands to him.

【答案】Possible version:
Now this young man started to clean his mother’s hand gently. For the first time, he noticed his mother’s hands were rough with cuts and calluses. Some of the cuts were so deep that she shivered with pain when they were cleaned. It was not until that moment that the young man started to understand the sacrifice his mother had made to ensure he could get a good education. Stroking his mother’s hands with both affection and guilt, he felt a lump in his throat, tears of admiration and sorrow streaming down his face.
The following day he went to the director’s office again. His face was calm, and the excitement and pride in his eyes were replaced by sincerity and gratitude. “Thank you for this valuable lesson,” said the young man with tears glittering in his eyes. Then he continued to tell the manager that he was regretful about being an insensitive son who had been obsessed with grades and career opportunities, neglecting how his mother had suffered all these years. The manager listened attentively and finally said with a smile curving his lips, “I’m glad you’ve gained the power of appreciation, which is an essential quality in a manager. You are hired. ”
