上将该项涂黑。
A
Amid the coronavirus outbreak, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security recommends having at least a two-week supply of water and food.
Potatoes
● Shelf life: 2 to 5 weeks if stored in a cool, dry, dark place
Yukon Gold, red, and fingerling potatoes will last from two to three weeks. Larger white potatoes can last for three to five weeks. Sweet potatoes have about the same shelf life. Don’t store them next to onions, however. The two might go together well in cooking, but raw, each gives off gases and moisture that might cause the other to spoil faster.
Tea
● Shelf life: 6 to 12 months past “sell-by” date
Dried tea leaves, whether loose(in a sealed container) or in teabags(in an unopened box) can easily last a year or more if they’re not subjected to damp or humidity. However, the tea does tend to lose flavor over time.
Peanuts
●Shelf life: 1 to 2 months
Peanuts in their shell, especially when kept cool and dry, are perfectly happy in the cupboard for as long as two months.
Canned fruits and vegetables
● Shelf life: 1 to 2 years past “sell-by” date
Canning is an extremely efficient means of preserving food. Generally speaking, if canned foods aren’t subjected to extreme heat, their contents should stay good for two years or more. Be aware, however, of dented cans or those with swollen tops, which may indicate the presence of bacteria inside.
21. Which can go bad faster if stored with onions?
A. Potatoes. B. Tea.
C. Peanuts. D. Canned fruits and vegetables.
22. What is special about tea?
A. The flavor of tea can always remain the same.
B. Tea leaves are better to be preserved in an open jar.
C. Tea leaves should be kept away from the state of being wet.
D. The maximum length of time that tea can be stored is 6 months.
23. What may shorten the “sell - by” date of canned foods ?
A. Shapes of cans. B. Categories of foods.
C. Decline of the temperature. D. Exposure to high temperature.

B
It was our last class before summer break. I was finishing the first year of an MFA program in poetry. I was tired and puzzled. "Was I good enough to be in the program?" When the professor asked about our summer plans,
I panicked. I didn't want to appear idle(闲散的)."Gardening," I responded immediately. Actually I knew nothing about plants! My professor nodded and said, "What a good idea, Mary! Emily Dickinson loved gardening." Emily Dickinson lived in the countryside, studying plants as a child. I was in my late twenties, living in the city without gardening experience.
A few days later, I bought a jalapeno seedling(青辣椒秧苗).At least I could say I’d tried gardening. I watered and changed the dirt for my little plant. I even talked to it. And over the summer, it grew bigger and bigger. I was proud. Maybe I didn't have a black thumb after all.
I started the second year of my MFA, and then it was almost December and my jalapeno was suffering. It was brown in some places; many of its leaves had fallen. Would my little guy make it? I prayed, "Please be okay," as if its survival was closely linked to mine.
I worked hard in school. Spring came. My jalapeno plant came back to life. It grew bigger, with new leaves. And then it flowered. I handed in my graduate paper, a book of poems, in May." Your poems are strong," my professor said.
A huge weight lifted. I'd done it ! At that time, I found the flowers on my jalapeno plant were gone. I watched closer. A tiny green fruit pushed through where a flower had been. I smiled. I had succeeded in my MFA program, and my jalapeno plant had grown right beside me, and I successfully did things I hadn't thought possible.
24. Why did the author begin gardening?
A. Just by accident.
B. Because of the love for gardening.
C. To express love for Emily Dickinson.
D. Because of the reminding of a professor.
25. When did the author begin her first gardening?
A. In her childhood.
B. In one of her summer breaks.
C. In her teens.
D. In her first year of MFA program.
26. What does the underlined phrase "a black thumb" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. A talent to grow plants. B. A dirty finger to touch plants.
C. A good fortune to do everything. D. An inability to do gardening.
27. Which proverb can best describe the story above?
A. Nothing is impossible to a willing mind. B. Easier said than done.
C. It's never too old to learn. D. Do not teach fish to swim.
C
One thing in which I think I take too much pride, at times, is my academic performance. In the past, I managed to get grades on exams that were unbelievable, even to myself, for the amount of study I had done. The exam may have just happened to ask the questions to which I knew the answers, even though there were many possible questions that would have stumped me.
I’ve always done well in mathematics, but a few times, I had to step back and take a second look at how much pride I had taken in my ability. Upon receiving the score for my second exam in MATH170, I was rather disturbed. My score was 79%. I had planned to use my math courses to balance the grades I might get in my English and writing courses, so that the score was acceptable. It got worse still. In Statistics and Calculus, I received failing grades on homework assignments. Every time I got these bad grades, I felt the same. I started to think that maybe I really couldn't do these things. After giving an honest effort, however, I did better.
The thing in which I haven't had enough pride is my worth as a person with whom people like to associate. I give up opportunities to socialize because I don't think anyone will want to talk to me. Because of this trait of mine, I have very few friends. Perhaps spending the majority of my time alone isn't bad; it is what I'm used to, but I bet that by living a life of partial seclusion(隐居),I miss out on interesting and amusing life experiences that could be beneficial.
I have illustrated how the extremes of pride can be harmful. In my case, too much pride in academic ability can lead to failing grades, and not enough pride in oneself as a social individual can lead to a lonelier life. A moderate amount of pride leads to a clear view of life, allowing one to make good decisions regarding it.
28.Why did the author think he could get good grades in the past?
A. Because of hard work. B. Because of much pride.
C. Because of good luck. D. Because of high intelligence.
29. How did the author feel after exam failures?
A. A little ashamed. B. Less confident.
C. Less determined. D. A little grateful.
30. What is the author's attitude to spending most of his time alone?
A. Carefree. B. Tolerant. C. Regretful. D. Positive.
31. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Avoid being too proud B. Change the poor character
C. Correct the bad behaviour D. Balance the pride degree
D
What about your emotions? How do they help you to understand what you are reading?
In Jane Yolan’s Owl Moon,a girl explores with her father on a snowy night. She longs for this special night. And she’s amazed when she sees an owl. Have you felt longing before? Amazement? Well, if you have, it helps you have a sense of agreement. When we can put ourselves inside a story we can understand it better. Our brain tells us, “Oh, this girl’s experience is a bit like mine.” And boom! We can relate to her. But this skill is not born in us. So young kids have to learn it.
Pictures and images help young readers to understand and recognize feelings. Readers feel joyful when seeing the smiling faces of friends. They feel fear when turning the page to find a scary monster. They are just pictures, but the feelings are real. This skill, to understand the thinking and feeling of others, is what researchers call “theory of mind”.
For example, think about the faces of people and animals in stories: The Big Bad Wolf’s scary teeth. The ‘o’ shape of a surprised character’s mouth. Or big, wide eyes like the girl in Owl Moon. By noticing the faces, readers can start to figure out what it feels like to be that character. And that helps to figure out how people feel and think in real life.
But most young readers don’t go into deep, scary woods. And some may not go to the beach or play basketball. In the book Yo!Yes? two kids meet and play ball. The kids start the story on opposite pages. But as the story goes on, they get closer until they are together. Some young readers might not play basketball, but they can read the clues on the page to figure out how the kids are feeling. And some readers might not like the game, but they can feel excited for the characters because of how the characters look and move.
32. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Owl Moon talks about the exploration of the Moon.
B. The feeling of “amazement” is a sense of agreement.
C. Readers are blessed with the ability to interpret others.
D. Readers with similar experience understand the story better.
33. Which of the following might help readers develop “theory of mind”?
A. True feelings. B. Smiling faces.
C. Picture books. D. Reading skills.
34. Young readers can go deeper into a story by ________.
A. tracking the plot B. developing new skills
C. sharing similar hobbies D. analyzing the background
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. How thinking influences reading.
B. How readers improve reading skills.
C. How emotions help enhance reading.
D. How kids figure out the clues of stories.

第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

We don’t meet people by accident. 　　　36　　　Some will help you grow, some will hurt you, some will inspire you to do better. At the same time, you are playing some role in their lives as well. Know that paths cross for a reason and treat people with significance.

Dear Jim,
I am delighted to know you are curious about the lecture delivering in my school last month. Here, I’d like to share some detail about it.
To solve the conflict with parents and build more harmonious relationship, our school held a lecture Build a Bridge of Communication with Parents, which turned out huge successful. That impressed me most was the communication skills. When we made mistakes, we should make an apology for parents sincerely. Unless they did something wrong, we should stand in our shoes, understanding and forgiving them. In the end, the lecturer had appealed to us to show more respect and love to our parents.
From now on, I made up my mind to greet my parents more in gentle voice and care about them with all my heart. I do hope my letter will help you get the whole picture of the lecture.
Yours,

详解：
A
【答案】21-23 ACD
【解析】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了一些食物的保质期以及保存方法。
21.细节理解题。根据小标题Potatoes中的“Sweet potatoes have about the same shelf life. Don't store them next to onions, however. The two might go together well in cooking, but raw, each gives off gases and moisture that might cause the other to spoil faster.”（红薯的保质期也差不多。但是，不要把它们放在洋葱旁边。这两种食物在烹饪时可能是很好的搭档，但处于生食的状态时，它们会释放出气体和水分，可能会让另一种食物更快变质。）可知，土豆和洋葱放一起会更快变质，故选A。
22.细节理解题。根据小标题Tea下的内容可知，干茶叶，无论是散装的（在密封的容器中）还是茶包（在未开封的盒子中），只要不受潮或潮湿，都可以保存一年或更长时间。然而，随着时间的推移，这种茶确实会失去味道。由此可知茶叶不能受潮，故选C。
23.细节理解题。根据小标题Canned fruits and vegetables中的“Generally speaking, if canned foods aren’t subjected to extreme heat, their contents should stay good for two years or more.”（一般来说，如果罐头食品不经受极端高温，其里面的食品应能保持良好两年或更久。）可知，罐头食品如果经受高温，保质期可能会缩短，故选D。
B
24.【答案】A
【解析】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的"When the professor asked about our summer plans, I panicked. I didn't want to appear idle(闲散的).'Gardening,' I responded immediately"可知,作者开始做园艺仅仅是因为面对教授的提问不想让教授觉得自己闲散无事而随口回答的,由此推断,作者的决定是很随意的,纯属偶然(by accident)。
25.【答案】B
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第一段首句“It was our last class before summer break”可知,作者真正开始做园艺是在暑假期间。
26.【答案】D
【答案】词义猜测题。根据画线句前的"And over the summer, it grew bigger and bigger"可知,青椒苗在作者的培育下长势喜人。由此推断,作者觉得自己也有做好园艺的能力,画线处所在句子是否定句,因此它表达的意思是”做不好园艺”。
27.【答案】A
【答案】推理判断题。通读全文可知,本篇文章有两条主线,一条是作者从不会做园艺到成功培育青椒苗的过程,另一条是作者对诗歌由不感兴趣到付出努力之后取得成功的过程。
C
28.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段中的"The exam may have just happened to ask the questions to which I knew the answers, even though there were many possible questions that would have stumped me”可知,作者认为可能只是考试碰巧问了一些自己知道答案的问题,还有许多问题会难倒作者。由此推断,作者认为自己以前的好成绩是运气使然。不要仅关注文中的"the amount of study"就误选A项。
29.【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Every time I got these bad grades, I felt the same. I started to think that maybe I really couldn't do these things"可知,作者在考试失败的时候会想到或许自己真的就没有能力做这些事情,即作者变得对自己的能力不那么自信了。
30.【答案】C
【解析】观点态度题。根据第三段中的“Perhaps spending the majority of my time alone isn't bad; it is what I'm used to, but I bet that by living a life of partial seclusion(隐居),I miss out on interesting and amusing life experiences that could be beneficial"可知,作者认为大部分时间独处也许并不坏,但因为过着这种隔绝的生活,自己肯定错过了一些有趣的生活经历,这些经历可能是有益的。由此推断,作者对自己独处的生活方式表示遗感。carefree 无忧无虑的;tolerant 宽容的;regretful 后悔的,遗感的;positive 积极的。
31.【答案】D
【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文,本篇文章是分总结构,第一、二段阐述了对自己能力过度骄做会导致成绩下降,第三段介绍了对自己作为社会个体的自豪感不足则会导致更孤独的生活,从而错失很多有趣又有益的事情,最后一段得出结论:适度的骄做感会让你看清生活,让你能够做出正确的决定。D选项“平衡骄傲的程度”与文章主旨相符。

32.细节理解题。根据第二自然段“Have you felt longing before? Amazement? Well, if you have, it helps you have a sense of agreement. When we can put ourselves inside a story we can understand it better.”（你以前有过渴望吗？有关惊奇吗？如果你有，这能让你有一种认同的感觉。当我们能把自己放在一个故事里，我们就能更好地理解它。）可知有同样体验的人能更好地理解这个故事。故选D项。
33.细节理解题。根据第三自然段可知，图片和图像能帮助年轻读者理解和认识情感。这种理解他人想法和感受的能力被研究人员称为“精神理论”。因此图片和图像可以帮助读者发展“精神理论”。故选C项。
34.细节理解题。根据第五自然段“And some readers might not like the game, but they can feel excited for the characters because of how the characters look and move.”（有些读者可能不喜欢打篮球，但他们会因为角色的样子和动作而感到激动。）可知读者可以通过故事中的具体情节，比如角色的表情和动作，来深入理解故事。故选A项。

M: Welcome to the Selmore Public Library. To join the library, you need a membership card. Take your passport or ID card, as well as show your home address, to the information desk. (17)After a period of two years, all readers are required to go to the desk with a paper that has their name and present address on it, so the library can keep up-to-date records of where people are living. There’s no need to register again and there is no charge for this. 
If you can’t find the book you want on the shelves, you can book it in advance. If it’s in another library in the city, we can usually get it for you within a week. If someone else has borrowed it, it can take a few weeks. Either way, we tell you by phone when the book can be picked up. (18)We will hold it for you for five days.  
Books can be borrowed for fourteen days. Children’s books also have a two-week borrowing period. So do the CDs. But DVDs, both children’s and adults’, can only be borrowed for up to seven days. (19)Dictionaries can be borrowed but normally only for one day. 
The library opening hours have been changed slightly. Instead of opening late on Wednesday evenings until 8:00 pm, we will be closing at 6:00 pm, (20)but we will close at 7:00 instead of 5:30 on Saturdays and we are going to open on Sunday mornings from next month from 9:00 to 1:00. Notices are posted in the library about these.
