B
I used to be the most determined resolution-maker. Even as a child, I was always goal-centered and loved the feeling of accomplishing things, and every January 1st, I would sit down and write out my resolutions (目标) for the upcoming year. And what resolutions they were! I always picked big goals, like: In the New Year, I will lose 50 pounds! And run a marathon! And study scripture (圣经) every day!
The problem? I’d start out strong, but by February or March, I’d be out of willpower and I’d slide quietly back into my old habits. Every winter, I’d feel guilty and ashamed, looking back at all of the amazing things... I think one of my biggest problems with New Years resolutions was wanting to “dream big” but not having the skills and ability to do those things.
Now I take the opposite approach I’m all about the little goals. First, little goals are easy to set. Instead of saying I’m going to run a marathon, I’ve decided I’m going to run 20 minutes three days a week. Second, little goals are easier to accomplish. Every time I check one of my mini goals off my list, I feel a burst of pride and accomplishment. It’s a great feeling, and I don’t have to wait until the end of the year to enjoy it!
The other great thing about making small goals instead of resolutions is that you can build small goals on top of each other, adding the achievements together. For instance, recently I decided to make sure I ate five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. After a few months, this became a solid habit.
4. Why did the author feel guilty and ashamed?
A. Because she picked big goals as her resolutions.
B. Because she failed to accomplish her resolutions.
C. Because she was looking back at the amazing things.
D. Because she loved the feeling of accomplishing things.
5. How did she change her new year’s resolutions?
A. She put all of her goals together.
B. She checked mini goals off her list.
C. She set small goals instead of big ones.
D. She didn’t make resolutions any more.
6. What did the author want to say in the last paragraph?
A. Small goals are easy to set.
B. Making resolutions is not reasonable.
C. Eating fruits and vegetable is a good habit.
D. Small goal can contribute to big achievements.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Setting Small Goals Not Big Ones B. Combining Big and Small Goals
C. Making New Year’s Resolutions D. Setting and Achieving My Goals
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者从还是一个孩子时就开始在每年的1月1日坐下来写下来新年愿望,但定下的愿望太大,没有能够完成,于是就改为设定小目标进行,还讲述了设定小目标的好处。
4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中I’d start out strong, but by February or March, I’d be out of willpower and I’d slide quietly back into my old habits. Every winter, I’d feel guilty and ashamed, looking back at all of the amazing things... 刚开始我会很坚强,但到了2月或3月,我就没有意志力了,我会悄悄回到老习惯。每年冬天,我都会感到内疚和羞愧,回想那些令人惊叹的事情……可知,作者感到内疚和羞愧是因为她没有完成她的决心。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Now I take the opposite approach I’m all about the little goals. 现在我采取相反的方法,我只关注小目标。可知,作者通过设定小目标而不是大目标来改变新年的愿望。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中The other great thing about making small goals instead of resolutions is that you can build small goals on top of each other, adding the achievements together.制定小目标而不是决心的另一个好处是,你可以在每个小目标的基础上,不断取得成就。由此判断出,作者在最后一段中想表达的是小目标可以促成大成就。故选D项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中I think one of my biggest problems with New Years resolutions was wanting to “dream big” but not having the skills and ability to do those things. 我认为我在新年计划中最大的问题之一就是想要“有远大的梦想”,但是却没有能力去做这些事情。第三段中Now I take the opposite approach I’m all about the little goals. 现在我采取相反的方法,我只关注小目标。以及下文讲述了三个设定小目标的好处,可知,本篇文章的最佳标题是“设定小目标,而不是大目标”。故选A项。
C
Researchers have found, for the first time plants letting out sounds when they are stressed. According to a study a team of scientists recorded tomato and tobacco (烟草) plants producing sound frequencies which humans cannot hear in stressful situations—such as when they experienced a lack of water or their stems (茎) were cut.
Previous research has shown that plants respond to stress by producing several visual and chemical signals. For example, stressed plants may differ in color and shape compared to unstressed plants. Meanwhile, some are also known to let out things in response to drought (干旱) or being eaten.
The latest study, meanwhile, is the first to identify plants making sounds which can be detected over a distance. The team detected the tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour on average when they were exposed to drought conditions, while the tobacco plants produced 11. When the stems of the plants were cut, the tomato plants made 25 sounds an hour on average and the tobacco plants produced 15. As a comparison, unstressed plants made less than one sound per hour on average, according to the study.
The team say that while they only tested tomato and tobacco, it’s possible that other plants could also produce sounds, adding that the latest findings could have an influence on agriculture. “Plant sound production could offer a new way for monitoring crops water state—a question of key importance in agriculture”, the authors wrote in the study more precise irrigation can save up to 50 percent of the water cost and increase the production.
“In times when more and more areas are exposed to drought due to climate change, while human population and consumption keep increasing, effective water use becomes even more important for food security”, they said “Our results, showing the ability to distinguish between drought-stressed and control plants on the basis of plant sounds, open a new direction in the field of precision agriculture.”
8. Which of the following best describes plants’ response to stress in the study?
A. Sing. B. Laugh.
C. Cry. D. Sigh.
9. What can we know from the first 3 paragraphs?
A. Humans can hear the sound produced by plants.
B. Stressed and unstressed plants look the same.
C. Plants in stressful situations make the fewest sounds.
D. Stressed tomato plants make more sounds than tobacco.
10. How can the study help agriculture?
A. Lower the cost. B. Better the quality.
C. Monitor climate change. D. Control the pests.
11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Science. B. Health.
C. Education. D. Culture.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。研究人员通过对西红柿和烟草植物在缺水或其茎被切断时的观测,首次发现,植物在压力下会发出声音,并讲述了这项研究发现对农业生产应用的影响。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中According to a study a team of scientists recorded tomato and tobacco (烟草) plants producing sound frequencies which humans cannot hear in stressful situations—such as when they experienced a lack of water or their stems (茎) were cut. 根据一项研究,一组科学家记录了西红柿和烟草植物产生的声音频率,这些频率人类在紧张的情况下听不到,比如缺水或茎被切断。由植物在缺水或者茎被切断时声音会发出,可知,在这项研究中,cry“发出刺耳的叫声”最能描述植物对压力的反应。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中Researchers have found, for the first time plants letting out sounds when they are stressed. 研究人员首次发现,植物在压力下会发出声音。以及第三段中The team detected the tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour on average when they were exposed to drought conditions, while the tobacco plants produced 11. When the stems of the plants were cut, the tomato plants made 25 sounds an hour on average and the tobacco plants produced 15. 研究小组发现,番茄植株在干旱条件下平均每小时发出35种声音,而烟草植株发出11种声音。当这些植物的茎被切断时,番茄植株平均每小时发出25个声音,烟草植株每小时发出15个声音。通过数字的对比,可知,从前三段我们可以知道压力大的番茄比烟草发出的声音更大。故选D项。
10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Plant sound production could offer a new way for monitoring crops water state—a question of key importance in agriculture”, the authors wrote in the study more precise irrigation can save up to 50 percent of the water cost and increase the production. 研究报告的作者们在报告中写道:“植物声音的产生可以为监测作物的水状况提供一种新方法——这是农业中一个非常重要的问题。”更精确的灌溉可以节省高达50%的水成本,并提高产量。可知,这项研究帮助农业降低了成本。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中Researchers have found, for the first time plants letting out sounds when they are stressed.研究人员首次发现,植物在压力下会发出声音;最后一段中“Our results, showing the ability to distinguish between drought-stressed and control plants on the basis of plant sounds, open a new direction in the field of precision agriculture.” “我们的研究结果,以植物的声音为基础,显示了区分有干旱压力和控制植物的能力,打开一个精准农业领域的新方向。”可知,本篇文章主要介绍了植物在压力下会发出声音,并介绍了了这项研究发现对农业生产应用的影响,因此这篇文章可能出现在报纸的科学版面。故选A项。
D
It is believed that around half the US adult population will be obese (肥胖的) by 2030, while one in four will fall into the severely obese category. This is according to a new study led by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, which found that levels of obesity are increasing in every state. Indeed the predictions show that levels of severe obesity could be higher than 25 percent in half of states.
“Especially striking was our finding that among adults with very low income (less than $20,000 per year), severe obesity is predicted to be the most common in 44 states—almost everywhere in the US,” a researcher said.
The research was carried out to inform state policymakers—and perhaps help change the tendency. The study authors say the best form of attack is prevention. Limiting intake of sugar is stressed as one of the most effective and cost-effective methods for reducing obesity levels, and a tax likely to save more money than it costs.
Sugar (and the sugar industry) has come under fire for its role in promoting obesity. Indeed, one recent study published in September 2019 puts responsibility for today’s obesity epidemic (流行病) firmly on the shoulders of sugar, concluding high-sugar diets during childhood in the seventies and eighties could be behind the rise.
“We knew from previous work that obesity is increasing in the US, and that some states and demographic groups (人群) are at higher risk, but we were surprised that even the states with the lowest obesity will be above 35 percent in 2030—a level currently considered high, a researcher told Newsweek. What is clear is that we will not be able to treat our way out of this epidemic—achieving and keeping weight loss is difficult—so prevention efforts will be key to making progress in this area.”
12. What’s the most surprising finding in the study?
A. Over 25% of people will be seriously obese.
B. Levels of obesity are increasing in every state.
C. poor adults are more likely to be severely obese.
D. Half of the US adults will be overweight by 2030.
13. What is the best way to solve the problem according to the passage?
A. To reduce the tax. B. To limit intake of sugar.
C. To reduce obesity level. D. To inform policymakers.
14. What does the underlined word “fire” actually refer to in paragraph 4?
A. Blame from researchers. B. Rapid chemical change.
C. Current obesity epidemic. D. High-sugar diets.
15. What’s the main idea of the last two paragraphs?
A. Obesity is increasing everywhere in the US.
B. All states in America are at the same level of obesity.
C. Maintaining weight loss is a good way to deal with obesity.
D. Diets with less sugar are vital to preventing the problem of obesity.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。研究人员估计到2030年,美国成年人将有一半肥胖,四分之一的人将严重肥胖,每个州的肥胖水平都在上升。这项研究是为了告知国家政策制定者,这或许也有助于改变这一趋势。该研究的作者认为最好的攻击形式是预防,即限制糖的摄入量。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Especially striking was our finding that among adults with very low income (less than $20,000 per year), severe obesity is predicted to be the most common in 44 states—almost everywhere in the US,” a researcher said. 一名研究人员说:“尤其让人吃惊的是,我们的研究发现,在收入极低(每年不到2万美元)的成年人中,严重肥胖预计将在44个州最为普遍——几乎在美国各地都是如此。”可知,这项研究最令人惊讶的发现是贫穷的成年人更有可能严重肥胖。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Limiting intake of sugar is stressed as one of the most effective and cost-effective methods for reducing obesity levels限制糖的摄入被强调为降低肥胖水平的最有效和最划算的方法之一。可知,解决这个问题的最好方法是限制糖的摄入量。故选B项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段中Sugar (and the sugar industry) has come under fire for its role in promoting obesity. Indeed, one recent study published in September 2019 puts responsibility for today’s obesity epidemic (流行病) firmly on the shoulders of sugar糖(以及制糖业)因其在促进肥胖方面的作用而受到_________。事实上,2019年9月发表的一项最新研究将当今肥胖流行的责任完全推到了糖的肩上。由把肥胖的责任推到糖的肩上,可知,这是研究人员责备糖的不良影响,因此猜测划线词fire实际指的是“来自研究人员的责备”。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中Sugar (and the sugar industry) has come under fire for its role in promoting obesity. 糖(以及制糖业)因其在促进肥胖方面的作用而受到抨击;以及最后一段中What is clear is that we will not be able to treat our way out of this epidemic—achieving and keeping weight loss is difficult—so prevention efforts will be key to making progress in this area. 很明显,我们将无法摆脱这种流行病——实现和保持体重减轻是困难的——所以预防工作将是在这一领域取得进展的关键。可知,最后两段的大意是少吃糖对预防肥胖至关重要。故选D项。

这是一篇记叙文。作者专业是国际关系,研究方向是澳大利亚政府支持的教育项目。作者来到中国,目的是为了采访这些项目的学生,了解他们在中国的经历。同时,作者也能在中国了解中国工作,生活和文化。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我的专业是国际关系,我的研究方向是澳大利亚政府支持的教育项目。根据谓语动词is focusing on可知此处要用非谓语动词,且education programs与support之间是被动关系,可知此处要用过去分词形式。故填supported。
【42题详解】
考查动词的时态和语态。句意:澳大利亚政府资助了一些项目,因为这些项目被认为体现出了澳中两国人名之间的关系和彼此的理解。此处是由as引导的原因状语从句,由主句谓语动词sponsors可知此处的时态是一般现在时;由主语these programs与think之间是被动关系,因此要用其被动语态。故填are thought。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我发现和目前在中国学习的澳大利亚学生以及从澳大利亚大学毕业后回国的中国学生交谈很有趣。根据it是形式宾语,真正的宾语是to talk with Australian students,且由currently 可知此处要用现在分词形式修饰Australian students,表示正在进行。故填studying。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句的关系词。句意:我发现和目前在中国学习的澳大利亚学生以及从澳大利亚大学毕业后回国的中国学生交谈很有趣。分析句子成分可知,此处是一个定语从句,先行词是Chinese students,指人,根据定语从句中的谓语动词have returned to可知此处要用关系代词who/that,充当主语。故填who/that。
【45题详解】
考查动词的时态。句意:我很高兴地发现,自从项目开始以来,这些项目对他们和他们未来的职业产生了很大的影响。根据since the programs started可知此处时态要用现在完成时,且主语是these programs。故填have affected。
【46题详解】
考查冠词。句意:我坚信教育是打破消极刻板印象、在不同国家之间建立桥梁的工具。根据believer可知此处要用冠词修饰名词,表示“一个”,且由形容词strong是以辅音因素开头的,因此要用冠词a。故填a。
【47题详解】
考查副词。句意:中国是澳大利亚经济未来极为重要的关系,但我们的文化和政治制度却截然不同。根据形容词important可知此处要用副词修饰形容词。故填extremely。
【48题详解】
考查连词。句意:对于澳大利亚人来说,现在是了解在中国工作和生活的最重要的时刻。根据There is no more important time可知此处要用表示比较的连词than。故填than。
【49题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:不到两年前,我来到北京,与北京大学的研究人员一起工作。根据to work with 和at Peking University可知此处要用名词的复数形式。故填researchers。
【50题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:对我来说,我无法抗拒这个机会去体验一个中国员工的一天,去了解中国文化。此处要用不定式作opportunity的后置定语。故填to experience。
【点睛】第2小题考查了一般现在时的被动语态的用法。一般现在时的被动语态,其主要结构为:主语(动作接受者)+is/am/are+动词的过去分词+by+动作执行者。如:
Football is played in most countries in the world.
此处是由as引导的原因状语从句,由主句谓语动词sponsors可知此处的时态是一般现在时;由主语these programs与think之间是被动关系,因此要用其被动语态。故填are thought。

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。作者向读者介绍了最喜欢的书《西游记》及其内容,并推荐外国人可以读简化版。
【详解】1. 考查非限制性定语从句的关系词。句意:我很高兴向你们推荐我最喜欢的书:《西游记》,它是中国四大名著之一。分析句子成分可知,此处是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是Journey to the West to you,指物,因此要用关系代词which,且which在定语从句中充当主语。故将what改为which。
2. 考查名词的复数。根据one of…“…之一”可知此处要用名词的复数形式。故将novel改为novels。
3. 考查动词的时态。句意:它很受我们中国人的欢迎。此处描述现在的事实,因此时态要用一般现在时。故将was改为is。
4. 考查动词的过去分词。句意:这部小说由吴承恩所著,根据玄奘的印度之旅为基础。the novel与write在逻辑上为被动关系可知此处要用过去分词作定语,修饰The novel。故将wrote改为written。
5. 考查介词。短语be based on“以…为基础”,是固定搭配。故在based前加上on。
6. 考查代词。句意:故事围绕孙悟空展开,孙悟空帮助他的师傅玄奘克服旅途中的重重困难。根据master Xuan Zang可知此处表示是孙悟空的师傅。故将her改为his。
7. 考查形容词。句意:因为像你们这样的外国人可能会觉得原版的经典很难读,我建议你读一些简化版。根据find it可知此处要用形容词做宾语补足语。故将difficulties改为difficult。
8. 考查连词。根据Because foreigners like you may find it difficult to read the original classic可知此处是主句,因此表示结果关系的连词so多余。故将so去掉。
9. 考查动词和时态。句意:有些版本有很多图片,你很容易理解。根据and they are easy for you to understand可知此处时态是一般现在时,且主语是Some versions,因此此处是谓语动词。故将coming改为come。
10. 考查冠词。句意:希望你会爱上这部很棒的作品。great work指的是上文的Journey to the West to you,因此表示特指。故将a改为the。
【点睛】第3小题和第9小题考查了一般现在时的用法。一般现在时的用法:
1.表示事物或人物的特征、状态。如:The sky is blue. 天空是蓝色的。
2.表示经常性或习惯性的动作。如:I get up at six every day. 我每天六点起床。
3.表示客观现实。如:The earth goes around the sun. 地球绕着太阳转。

Best wishes to you and your family.

I used to be the most determined resolution-maker. Even as a child, I was always goal-centered and loved the feeling of accomplishing things, and every January 1st, I would sit down and write out my resolutions (目标) for the upcoming year. And what resolutions they were! I always picked big goals, like: In the New Year, I will lose 50 pounds! And run a marathon! And study scripture (圣经) every day!
The problem? I’d start out strong, but by February or March, I’d be out of willpower and I’d slide quietly back into my old habits. Every winter, I’d feel guilty and ashamed, looking back at all of the amazing things... I think one of my biggest problems with New Years resolutions was wanting to “dream big” but not having the skills and ability to do those things.
Now I take the opposite approach I’m all about the little goals. First, little goals are easy to set. Instead of saying I’m going to run a marathon, I’ve decided I’m going to run 20 minutes three days a week. Second, little goals are easier to accomplish. Every time I check one of my mini goals off my list, I feel a burst of pride and accomplishment. It’s a great feeling, and I don’t have to wait until the end of the year to enjoy it!
The other great thing about making small goals instead of resolutions is that you can build small goals on top of each other, adding the achievements together. For instance, recently I decided to make sure I ate five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. After a few months, this became a solid habit.
4. Why did the author feel guilty and ashamed?
A. Because she picked big goals as her resolutions.
B. Because she failed to accomplish her resolutions.
C. Because she was looking back at the amazing things.
D. Because she loved the feeling of accomplishing things.
5. How did she change her new year’s resolutions?
A. She put all of her goals together.
B. She checked mini goals off her list.
C. She set small goals instead of big ones.
D. She didn’t make resolutions any more.
6. What did the author want to say in the last paragraph?
A. Small goals are easy to set.
B. Making resolutions is not reasonable.
C. Eating fruits and vegetable is a good habit.
D. Small goal can contribute to big achievements.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Setting Small Goals Not Big Ones B. Combining Big and Small Goals
C. Making New Year’s Resolutions D. Setting and Achieving My Goals
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】

Researchers have found, for the first time plants letting out sounds when they are stressed. According to a study a team of scientists recorded tomato and tobacco (烟草) plants producing sound frequencies which humans cannot hear in stressful situations—such as when they experienced a lack of water or their stems (茎) were cut.
Previous research has shown that plants respond to stress by producing several visual and chemical signals. For example, stressed plants may differ in color and shape compared to unstressed plants. Meanwhile, some are also known to let out things in response to drought (干旱) or being eaten.
The latest study, meanwhile, is the first to identify plants making sounds which can be detected over a distance. The team detected the tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour on average when they were exposed to drought conditions, while the tobacco plants produced 11. When the stems of the plants were cut, the tomato plants made 25 sounds an hour on average and the tobacco plants produced 15. As a comparison, unstressed plants made less than one sound per hour on average, according to the study.
The team say that while they only tested tomato and tobacco, it’s possible that other plants could also produce sounds, adding that the latest findings could have an influence on agriculture. “Plant sound production could offer a new way for monitoring crops water state—a question of key importance in agriculture”, the authors wrote in the study more precise irrigation can save up to 50 percent of the water cost and increase the production.
“In times when more and more areas are exposed to drought due to climate change, while human population and consumption keep increasing, effective water use becomes even more important for food security”, they said “Our results, showing the ability to distinguish between drought-stressed and control plants on the basis of plant sounds, open a new direction in the field of precision agriculture.”
8. Which of the following best describes plants’ response to stress in the study?
A. Sing. B. Laugh.
C. Cry. D. Sigh.
9. What can we know from the first 3 paragraphs?
A. Humans can hear the sound produced by plants.
B. Stressed and unstressed plants look the same.
C. Plants in stressful situations make the fewest sounds.
D. Stressed tomato plants make more sounds than tobacco.
10. How can the study help agriculture?
A. Lower the cost. B. Better the quality.
C. Monitor climate change. D. Control the pests.
11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Science. B. Health.
C. Education. D. Culture.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. A
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第一段中According to a study a team of scientists recorded tomato and tobacco (烟草) plants producing sound frequencies which humans cannot hear in stressful situations—such as when they experienced a lack of water or their stems (茎) were cut. 根据一项研究,一组科学家记录了西红柿和烟草植物产生的声音频率,这些频率人类在紧张的情况下听不到,比如缺水或茎被切断。由植物在缺水或者茎被切断时声音会发出,可知,在这项研究中,cry“发出刺耳的叫声”最能描述植物对压力的反应。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中Researchers have found, for the first time plants letting out sounds when they are stressed. 研究人员首次发现,植物在压力下会发出声音。以及第三段中The team detected the tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour on average when they were exposed to drought conditions, while the tobacco plants produced 11. When the stems of the plants were cut, the tomato plants made 25 sounds an hour on average and the tobacco plants produced 15. 研究小组发现,番茄植株在干旱条件下平均每小时发出35种声音,而烟草植株发出11种声音。当这些植物的茎被切断时,番茄植株平均每小时发出25个声音,烟草植株每小时发出15个声音。通过数字的对比,可知,从前三段我们可以知道压力大的番茄比烟草发出的声音更大。故选D项。
10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Plant sound production could offer a new way for monitoring crops water state—a question of key importance in agriculture”, the authors wrote in the study more precise irrigation can save up to 50 percent of the water cost and increase the production. 研究报告的作者们在报告中写道:“植物声音的产生可以为监测作物的水状况提供一种新方法——这是农业中一个非常重要的问题。”更精确的灌溉可以节省高达50%的水成本,并提高产量。可知,这项研究帮助农业降低了成本。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中Researchers have found, for the first time plants letting out sounds when they are stressed.研究人员首次发现,植物在压力下会发出声音;最后一段中“Our results, showing the ability to distinguish between drought-stressed and control plants on the basis of plant sounds, open a new direction in the field of precision agriculture.” “我们的研究结果,以植物的声音为基础,显示了区分有干旱压力和控制植物的能力,打开一个精准农业领域的新方向。”可知,本篇文章主要介绍了植物在压力下会发出声音,并介绍了了这项研究发现对农业生产应用的影响,因此这篇文章可能出现在报纸的科学版面。故选A项。

It is believed that around half the US adult population will be obese (肥胖的) by 2030, while one in four will fall into the severely obese category. This is according to a new study led by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, which found that levels of obesity are increasing in every state. Indeed the predictions show that levels of severe obesity could be higher than 25 percent in half of states.
“Especially striking was our finding that among adults with very low income (less than $20,000 per year), severe obesity is predicted to be the most common in 44 states—almost everywhere in the US,” a researcher said.
The research was carried out to inform state policymakers—and perhaps help change the tendency. The study authors say the best form of attack is prevention. Limiting intake of sugar is stressed as one of the most effective and cost-effective methods for reducing obesity levels, and a tax likely to save more money than it costs.
Sugar (and the sugar industry) has come under fire for its role in promoting obesity. Indeed, one recent study published in September 2019 puts responsibility for today’s obesity epidemic (流行病) firmly on the shoulders of sugar, concluding high-sugar diets during childhood in the seventies and eighties could be behind the rise.
“We knew from previous work that obesity is increasing in the US, and that some states and demographic groups (人群) are at higher risk, but we were surprised that even the states with the lowest obesity will be above 35 percent in 2030—a level currently considered high, a researcher told Newsweek. What is clear is that we will not be able to treat our way out of this epidemic—achieving and keeping weight loss is difficult—so prevention efforts will be key to making progress in this area.”
12. What’s the most surprising finding in the study?
A. Over 25% of people will be seriously obese.
B. Levels of obesity are increasing in every state.
C. poor adults are more likely to be severely obese.
D. Half of the US adults will be overweight by 2030.
13. What is the best way to solve the problem according to the passage?
A. To reduce the tax. B. To limit intake of sugar.
C. To reduce obesity level. D. To inform policymakers.
14. What does the underlined word “fire” actually refer to in paragraph 4?
A. Blame from researchers. B. Rapid chemical change.
C. Current obesity epidemic. D. High-sugar diets.
15. What’s the main idea of the last two paragraphs?
A. Obesity is increasing everywhere in the US.
B. All states in America are at the same level of obesity.
C. Maintaining weight loss is a good way to deal with obesity.
D. Diets with less sugar are vital to preventing the problem of obesity.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。研究人员估计到2030年,美国成年人将有一半肥胖,四分之一的人将严重肥胖,每个州的肥胖水平都在上升。这项研究是为了告知国家政策制定者,这或许也有助于改变这一趋势。该研究的作者认为最好的攻击形式是预防,即限制糖的摄入量。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Especially striking was our finding that among adults with very low income (less than $20,000 per year), severe obesity is predicted to be the most common in 44 states—almost everywhere in the US,” a researcher said. 一名研究人员说:“尤其让人吃惊的是,我们的研究发现,在收入极低(每年不到2万美元)的成年人中,严重肥胖预计将在44个州最为普遍——几乎在美国各地都是如此。”可知,这项研究最令人惊讶的发现是贫穷的成年人更有可能严重肥胖。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中Limiting intake of sugar is stressed as one of the most effective and cost-effective methods for reducing obesity levels限制糖的摄入被强调为降低肥胖水平的最有效和最划算的方法之一。可知,解决这个问题的最好方法是限制糖的摄入量。故选B项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段中Sugar (and the sugar industry) has come under fire for its role in promoting obesity. Indeed, one recent study published in September 2019 puts responsibility for today’s obesity epidemic (流行病) firmly on the shoulders of sugar糖(以及制糖业)因其在促进肥胖方面的作用而受到_________。事实上,2019年9月发表的一项最新研究将当今肥胖流行的责任完全推到了糖的肩上。由把肥胖的责任推到糖的肩上,可知,这是研究人员责备糖的不良影响,因此猜测划线词fire实际指的是“来自研究人员的责备”。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中Sugar (and the sugar industry) has come under fire for its role in promoting obesity. 糖(以及制糖业)因其在促进肥胖方面的作用而受到抨击;以及最后一段中What is clear is that we will not be able to treat our way out of this epidemic—achieving and keeping weight loss is difficult—so prevention efforts will be key to making progress in this area. 很明显,我们将无法摆脱这种流行病——实现和保持体重减轻是困难的——所以预防工作将是在这一领域取得进展的关键。可知,最后两段的大意是少吃糖对预防肥胖至关重要。故选D项。

这是一篇记叙文。作者专业是国际关系,研究方向是澳大利亚政府支持的教育项目。作者来到中国,目的是为了采访这些项目的学生,了解他们在中国的经历。同时,作者也能在中国了解中国工作,生活和文化。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我的专业是国际关系,我的研究方向是澳大利亚政府支持的教育项目。根据谓语动词is focusing on可知此处要用非谓语动词,且education programs与support之间是被动关系,可知此处要用过去分词形式。故填supported。
【42题详解】
考查动词的时态和语态。句意:澳大利亚政府资助了一些项目,因为这些项目被认为体现出了澳中两国人名之间的关系和彼此的理解。此处是由as引导的原因状语从句,由主句谓语动词sponsors可知此处的时态是一般现在时;由主语these programs与think之间是被动关系,因此要用其被动语态。故填are thought。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:我发现和目前在中国学习的澳大利亚学生以及从澳大利亚大学毕业后回国的中国学生交谈很有趣。根据it是形式宾语,真正的宾语是to talk with Australian students,且由currently 可知此处要用现在分词形式修饰Australian students,表示正在进行。故填studying。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句的关系词。句意:我发现和目前在中国学习的澳大利亚学生以及从澳大利亚大学毕业后回国的中国学生交谈很有趣。分析句子成分可知,此处是一个定语从句,先行词是Chinese students,指人,根据定语从句中的谓语动词have returned to可知此处要用关系代词who/that,充当主语。故填who/that。
【45题详解】
考查动词的时态。句意:我很高兴地发现,自从项目开始以来,这些项目对他们和他们未来的职业产生了很大的影响。根据since the programs started可知此处时态要用现在完成时,且主语是these programs。故填have affected。
【46题详解】
考查冠词。句意:我坚信教育是打破消极刻板印象、在不同国家之间建立桥梁的工具。根据believer可知此处要用冠词修饰名词,表示“一个”,且由形容词strong是以辅音因素开头的,因此要用冠词a。故填a。
【47题详解】
考查副词。句意:中国是澳大利亚经济未来极为重要的关系,但我们的文化和政治制度却截然不同。根据形容词important可知此处要用副词修饰形容词。故填extremely。
【48题详解】
考查连词。句意:对于澳大利亚人来说,现在是了解在中国工作和生活的最重要的时刻。根据There is no more important time可知此处要用表示比较的连词than。故填than。
【49题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:不到两年前,我来到北京,与北京大学的研究人员一起工作。根据to work with 和at Peking University可知此处要用名词的复数形式。故填researchers。
【50题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:对我来说,我无法抗拒这个机会去体验一个中国员工的一天,去了解中国文化。此处要用不定式作opportunity的后置定语。故填to experience。
【点睛】第2小题考查了一般现在时的被动语态的用法。一般现在时的被动语态,其主要结构为:主语(动作接受者)+is/am/are+动词的过去分词+by+动作执行者。如:
Football is played in most countries in the world.
此处是由as引导的原因状语从句,由主句谓语动词sponsors可知此处的时态是一般现在时;由主语these programs与think之间是被动关系,因此要用其被动语态。故填are thought。

这是一篇说明文。作者向读者介绍了最喜欢的书《西游记》及其内容,并推荐外国人可以读简化版。
【详解】1. 考查非限制性定语从句的关系词。句意:我很高兴向你们推荐我最喜欢的书:《西游记》,它是中国四大名著之一。分析句子成分可知,此处是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是Journey to the West to you,指物,因此要用关系代词which,且which在定语从句中充当主语。故将what改为which。
2. 考查名词的复数。根据one of…“…之一”可知此处要用名词的复数形式。故将novel改为novels。
3. 考查动词的时态。句意:它很受我们中国人的欢迎。此处描述现在的事实,因此时态要用一般现在时。故将was改为is。
4. 考查动词的过去分词。句意:这部小说由吴承恩所著,根据玄奘的印度之旅为基础。the novel与write在逻辑上为被动关系可知此处要用过去分词作定语,修饰The novel。故将wrote改为written。
5. 考查介词。短语be based on“以…为基础”,是固定搭配。故在based前加上on。
6. 考查代词。句意:故事围绕孙悟空展开,孙悟空帮助他的师傅玄奘克服旅途中的重重困难。根据master Xuan Zang可知此处表示是孙悟空的师傅。故将her改为his。
7. 考查形容词。句意:因为像你们这样的外国人可能会觉得原版的经典很难读,我建议你读一些简化版。根据find it可知此处要用形容词做宾语补足语。故将difficulties改为difficult。
8. 考查连词。根据Because foreigners like you may find it difficult to read the original classic可知此处是主句,因此表示结果关系的连词so多余。故将so去掉。
9. 考查动词和时态。句意:有些版本有很多图片,你很容易理解。根据and they are easy for you to understand可知此处时态是一般现在时,且主语是Some versions,因此此处是谓语动词。故将coming改为come。
10. 考查冠词。句意:希望你会爱上这部很棒的作品。great work指的是上文的Journey to the West to you,因此表示特指。故将a改为the。
【点睛】第3小题和第9小题考查了一般现在时的用法。一般现在时的用法:
1.表示事物或人物的特征、状态。如:The sky is blue. 天空是蓝色的。
2.表示经常性或习惯性的动作。如:I get up at six every day. 我每天六点起床。
3.表示客观现实。如:The earth goes around the sun. 地球绕着太阳转。

【答案】Dear Mike,
How is everything going with you?
It is quite understandable to feel down during such an increasingly challenging time. But staying at home is the best way to prevent you and your family from getting infected. Though self-isolation may at times be hard, it presents a perfect opportunity for you to slowdown, pause and reflect. In addition, you can set aside some regular time everyday to take exercise, which will help you cheer up and keep healthy.
I have strong belief that you and your country can get through the tough time and the good old days will return.
Best wishes to you and your family.
Yours,
Li Hua
