Do you remember the modern art piece that everyone has been talking about? Yes, It’s the banana taped to the wall at the Art Basel Gallery. Well, David, an artist from New York walked into the gallery yesterday, took the banana from the wall, and ate it. He said his performance was called “Hungry Artist”. The artwork was originally sold for 120 thousand dollars. The strangest thing about this story is that no legal action will be taken against David. Another banana will simply be taped to the wall. The art gallery director said that the price of the artwork was for the idea, and the banana is meant to be replaced. It makes sense, because pretty soon that banana is going to go bad, right, folks? Stay tuned for traffic, weather and politics coming at you in that order right after this commercial break.
第二部分：阅读(共两节，满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Show Some Love to the Ugly and Endangered
Let’s face it-not every animal is going to win a beauty contest. But all of them are important, and they all deserve a chance at survival. Let’s show a little love for some of the endangered species that may not be the prettiest, but need our help all the same.
Pallid Sturgeon(浅色鲟鱼)
The species has been around for more than 78 million years. These guys once shared the planet with dinosaurs. And sadly，they could be going the same way as their now fossilized(变成化石的)friends. Today, the last wild-born pallid sturgeons are nearing extinction. As humans built dams in the waterways these fish need to survive, they blocked the pallid sturgeon from being able to reach its breeding grounds.
California Condor(加州秃鹫)
The California condor sports a bare featherless head, the better to put into dead things without getting too dirty. With a wingspan of up to 9 feet, they’re one of the largest birds in the world. But due in large part to habitat loss, illegal shootings, and lead poisoning, by 1985 the entire known wild population had been reduced to just nine birds.
Northern Long-eared Bat
Few animals have as undeserved a bad reputation as bats do but they actually provide incredibly valuable services like pollination(授粉)or eating insects that could otherwise kill crops or make us sick.
North American bats like the Northern long-eared bat are being killed right now by a disease called “white nose syndrome”. This infection has lent new urgency to efforts to protect bat habitats and reduce other threats to their survival.
These are just three of a long list of endangered species that need our help-even if they aren’t always the ones that get the lion’s share of the spotlight. This Valentine’s Day, show some love for species like these.
21. What is the main reason for the pallid sturgeon’s close extinction?
A. Its ugly appearance.
B. The extinction of its fossilized friends.
C. Its long history of more than 78 million years.
D. Dams prevent them from reaching breeding grounds.
22. Which of following statements is TRUE?
A. Bats deserve a bad reputation.
B. North American bats are being killed by “white nose syndrome”.
C. The California condor sports featherless.
D. The California condor is the largest birds in the world.
23. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. No animal can share the spotlight of the lion.
B. Few endangered species need human’s help.
C. All species are equally important.
D. The Valentine’s Day is intended for endangered species.
【答案】21. D 22. B 23. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三种外貌丑陋的濒危动物，以此来告诫人们关爱这些物种。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“As humans built dams in the waterways these fish need to survive, they blocked the pallid sturgeon from being able to reach its breeding grounds.”（当人类在这些鱼生存所需的水道上建造水坝时，他们阻止了这种苍白的鲟鱼到达它的繁殖地。）可知浅色鲟鱼濒临灭绝的原因是人类修建大坝，阻断了他们去育种的水路。故选D项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“North American bats like the Northern long-eared bat are being killed right now by a disease called ‘white nose syndrome’.”（像北方长耳蝙蝠这样的北美蝙蝠现在正被一种叫做“白鼻综合症”的疾病所杀死。）可知，北美蝙蝠正被“白鼻子综合症”杀死。故选B项。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“These are just three of a long list of endangered species that need our help-even if they aren’t always the ones that get the lion’s share of the spotlight. This Valentine’s Day, show some love for species like these.”（这只是需要我们帮助的一长串濒危物种中的三种——即使它们并不总是最受关注的物种。这个情人节，给这些物种一些爱吧。）可知，濒危物种还有很多，它们并没有得到应有的关注，作者呼吁人类要关爱所有的物种；由此可推知，所有的物种都同样重要。故选C项。
B
I moved to the Spanish capital, Madrid, nearly two months ago. I am here for a year teaching English in a secondary school as a language assistant. Before I arrived I thought I would be able to adapt to Spanish culture very easily, but my previous expectations have been very different from the reality of Spanish life.
Firstly, I didn’t realize how difficult it would be to adapt to the Spanish day and the timings of meals. Spanish “midday” is at 14: 00, meaning lunch is never before then. My expectation was that I would be eating lunch at 12: 00-13: 00, but most days it’s 15: 30 before I eat lunch. Can I really still call this lunch?! The same applies to dinner or tea. In the UK, dinner is between 18:00 and 19: 00, but now that dinner time is 21: 30. The thing I didn’t realize is that this affects the Spanish sleeping routine. Eating dinner so late of course means that Spaniards go to bed so much later. It is such a British thing to go to bed at 22:00!
Queuing politely and being cautious around strangers is also something that is very British. I only realized it when I arrived in Spain. I took it for granted that queuing patiently is as the normal thing as in Britain or countries like China, Japan and America. But this definitely isn’t the case in Spain. If there’s a free table in a restaurant, you quickly take it, even if there’s other people who have been waiting longer than you.
Finally, the reality of the Spanish diet is very different from my expectations. Food products that are so normal in the UK aren’t nearly as popular here.
24. According to the passage, lunch time in the UK probably is ______.
A. 12:00-13:00 B. 14:00 C. after 15:30 D. 15:30
25. The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. eating dinner so early B. eating dinner so late
C. going to bed so early D. going to bed so late
26. Waiting in line patiently is considered the normal thing in the following countries except ______.
A. China B. America C. Spain D. British
27. How many aspects of cultural differences between Spain and Britain are mentioned in the text?
A. 3. B. 4. C. 5. D. 6.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。大约两个月前，“我”搬到了西班牙的首都马德里，进行为期一年的语言助教。和之前的预想不同，“我”发现要适应西班牙的生活和文化并非一件容易的事。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段第三句“My expectation was that I would be eating lunch at 12:00—13:00, but most days it’s 15:30 before I eat lunch.”（我原以为我会在中午12点到13点吃午饭，但大多数时候我都是15点半才吃午饭。）可以推断出，英国人的午餐时间是12:00—13:00。故选A项。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中“In the UK, dinner is between 18:00 and 19:00, but now that dinner time is 21:30.”（在英国，晚餐时间是18:00到19:00，但现在晚餐时间是21:30。）以及“Eating dinner so late of course means that Spaniards go to bed so much later.”（晚饭吃得这么晚当然意味着西班牙人睡觉时间要晚得多。）可知，晚餐时间太晚会影响到西班牙人的睡觉时间。故可猜测this应该指的是晚餐时间晚。故选B项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I only realized it when I arrived in Spain. I took it for granted that queuing patiently is as the normal thing as in Britain or countries like China, Japan and America. But this definitely isn’t the case in Spain.”（我理所当然地认为耐心排队是很正常的事情，就像在英国或中国、日本和美国这样的国家一样。但西班牙的情况绝对不是这样。）可知，唯有西班牙人并不认为耐心排队等候是一件正常的事。故选C项。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。通读全文可知，文章从四个方面介绍了西班牙与英国的文化差异，即：用餐时间，睡觉习惯，排队情况及食物四个方面。故选B项。
C
Glacier National Park in Montana shares boundaries with Canada, an American Indian reservation, and a national forest. Along the North Fork of the Flathead River the park also borders about 17 000 acres of private lands that are currently used for ranching timber(木材)and agriculture. This land is a crucial part of the habitat and migratory routes for several endangered species that frequent the park. These private lands are essentially the only ones available for development in the region.
With encouragement from the park, local landowners launched a land use planning effort to guide the future of the North Fork. The park is a partner in an interlocal agreement that appeals to resource managing agencies to work together with more than 400 private owners in the area. A draft plan has been prepared with the objective of maintaining traditional economic uses but limiting new development that would damage park resources. Voluntary action by landowners, teaming up with the park and the county, is helping to restrict small lot subdivisions, maintain wildlife corridors, and minimize any harmful impact on the environment.
The willingness of local landowners to participate in this protection effort may have been stimulated by concerns that congress would impose(强制实行)a legislative solution. Nevertheless，many local residents want to retain the existing character of the area. Meetings between park officials and landowners have led to a dramatically improved understanding of all concerns.
28. Why are the private lands surrounding Glacier National Park so important?
A. They are heavily populated.
B. They function as a hunting preserve.
C. They are restricted to government use.
D. They contain natural habitats of several threatened species.
29. The relationship between park officials and neighboring landowners may best be described as ______.
A. indifferent B. favourable C. cooperative D. disappointing
30. It can be inferred from the passage that a major interest of the officials of Glacier National Park is to ______.
A. limit land development around the park
B. establish a new park in Montana
C. influence national legislation
D settle border disputes with Canada
31. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The endangered species in Glacier National Park.
B. The protection of lands surrounding Glacier National Park.
C. Conservation laws imposed by the state of Montana.
D. Conservation laws imposed by Congress.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。保护自然环境需要所有人的努力。加拿大冰川国家公园和土地所有者共同制订了土地使用计划，来保护公园内的濒危物种和资源。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“This land is an important part of the habitat and migratory area in which several endangered species live.(这片土地是几种濒危物种的栖息地和迁徙区的重要组成部分)可知，它们是濒危物种的自然栖息地。 故选D项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“With encouragement from the park, local landowners initiated a land use planning effort to guide the future of the North Fork. The park is a partner in an inter local agreement that calls for resource-managing agencies to work together and with the more than 400 private owners in the area(在公园的鼓励下，当地的土地所有者发起了一项土地使用规划工作，以指导北福克的未来。该公园是一项跨地方协议的合作伙伴，该协议呼吁资源管理机构合作，并与该地区400多名私人业主合作)”可知，公园当局和地方土地所有者密切合作来保护资源， 因此他们的关系是“cooperative(合作性的)”。故选C项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A draft plan has been prepared, with objective of maintaining traditional economic uses but limiting new development that would damage park resources(已经拟定了一份计划草案，其目标是保持传统的经济用途，但限制可能破坏公园资源的新开发）”可知，为了保护自然资源和濒危物种，公园管理者限制那些会破坏资源的土地开发。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“A draft plan has been prepared, with objective of maintaining traditional economic uses but limiting new development that would damage park resources(已经拟定了一份计划草案，其目标是保持传统的经济用途，但限制可能破坏公园资源的新开发)可知，为了保护冰川国家公园的濒危物种和资源，公园当局和地方土地所有者制订了限制土地使用计划。故选B项。
D
Singapore is trying a new way to get its residents to stay away from each other. The government announced it would start using Spot, Boston Dynamics’ famous yellow and black robot dog in a local park.
Authorities said the four-legged robot “dog” will patrol the area and broadcast a prerecorded message to visitors to remind them of the importance of social distancing. The device will also be equipped with cameras that will look at the surroundings carefully and help officials calculate the number of people gathering in parks.
“These cameras will not be able to track or recognize specific individuals, and no personal data will be collected,” the government said. The new measure is an experiment to improve enforcement of social distancing throughout Singapore. The pilot project is put into trial use for two weeks at one park during off-peak hours. But if all goes well, authorities will consider expanding the program. The government says it’s also using Spot in another capacity-at a local isolation facility where the robot helps patients carry medicine.
Spot went viral almost overnight in a series of online videos several years ago, showing that it could run uphill, climb stairs or even get you a drink. It is generally used for inspections on construction sites or similar situations, according to Boston Dynamics. It also has been used for public safety reasons, such as helping “inspect dangerous packages from long-distance,” the company states on its website.
Singapore’s government said that it had picked the model for its flexibility. “Unlike wheeled robots, Spot works well across different terrains and can navigate and avoid obstacles effectively, making it ideal for operation in public parks and gardens,” it noted. For now, at least one park ranger will be patrolling the area along with the robot, according to authorities.
32. What is Spot employed for in a park in Singapore?
A. Isolating patients.
B. Inspecting dangerous packages.
C. Helping enforce social distancing.
D. Tracking and recognizing specific individuals.
33. What can we know from Paragraph 3?
A. A pilot will operate the robot dog.
B. The government is expanding the project.
C. Spot is being used in hospitals to help patients.
D. Spot doesn’t patrol the park during rush hours.
34. What does the underlined phrase probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Was created. B. Became a hit. C. Went public. D. Sold out.
35. Why has Singapore’s government chosen Spot?
A. It has great adaptability.
B. It is equipped with cameras.
C. It is not like a wheeled robot.
D. It works well from long-distance.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。讲述新加坡政府打算引入波士顿动力公司(Boston Dynamics)的机器狗Spot参与疫情期间保持社交距离的宣传和管理。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。综合第一段中的“Singapore is trying a new way to get its residents to stay away from each other.(新加坡正在尝试一种新的方式，让其居民彼此远离。)”和第二段的“Authorities said the four-legged robot “dog” will patrol the area and broadcast a prerecorded message to visitors to remind them of the importance of social distancing. (当局表示，这只四足机器人“狗”将在该地区巡逻，并向游客广播预先录制的信息，提醒他们保持社交距离的重要性。)”叙述，以及第三段“The new measure is an experiment to improve enforcement of social distancing throughout Singapore. (这项新措施是一项旨在改善新加坡各地保持社交距离的实验。)”可知新加坡政府引入Spot的目的是为了在疫情期间，进一步强化保持社交距离令的执行。故选C项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The pilot project is put into trial use for two weeks at one park during off-peak hours.(试点项目在非高峰时段在一个公园试运行两周。)”可知Spot会在公园的非高峰时段工作。故选D项。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线短语下文中的“…almost overnight in a series of online videos several years ago, showing that it could run uphill, climb stairs or even get you a drink.(几乎在几年前的一系列在线视频中一夜之间爆红，显示它可以跑上坡，爬楼梯，甚至让你喝一杯。)”可猜测，这个机器人能做很多事情的视频应该是使得Spot一夜变得家喻户晓，结合go viral的本身意思为“病毒一样传播”可猜测该短语的意思是“网红”。故选B项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Singapore’s government said that it had picked the model for its flexibility.(新加坡政府表示，它选择这种模式是为了提高灵活性。)”可知新加坡政府选择Spot原因是因为它的灵活性和适应能力。故选A项。

I was lacking in everything needed to start a new friendship.
My parents moved to the town when they decided to look for new jobs but they didn’t realize I was really hurt when I said goodbye to my old friends. It felt awful to be a new student in the school and when my classmates were chatting, what I could do was to be caught up in my thoughts watching the clouds outside the window. I was not good at math or history; nor was I good at drawing or dancing. I was shy and timid. I had a few friends back at my hometown and it seemed that they were the only ones who I could be friends with for my whole life. I felt I had achieved a point of saturation with regard to having friends and I could make no further addition to my friend list. I was ashamed of myself, so I believed I deserved no notice from others until Emily came to my world.
Emily was fearless, outspoken and easy to go. She was everything I was not and I was too shy to come out of my shell. I met Emily in school almost every day and yet I never talked to her. We were in the same class but we were like poles apart. How I wished I could be like her or at least be a friend of hers!
It was another ordinary day.
I wandered to the bus stop in the morning and waited for the school bus. Birds were singing songs with their friends but who could I sing songs with? I got on the bus and went straight to my usual seat, complaining in a low voice about getting up early and going to school like every other day, and about how things were going to be the same all over again. Little did I realize something different would happen that day.
Para. 1:
When I got up to get down the bus, my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2:
I got noticed by Emily, who brought me courage to start a new friendship!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Para. 1:
When I got up to get off the bus, my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest. I didn’t notice it and stood up with all my strength. Unfortunately, my schoolbag was torn apart and all the contents fell on the ground. I knelt down to pick them up. Suddenly, I saw a hand passing me some of the books. I looked up and found it was Emily who was helping me. With her help, I put all the contents back to my schoolbag. I began to talk with her and was surprised to find that we had much in common.
Para. 2:
I got noticed by Emily, who brought me courage to start a new friendship! One day when I told her that I admired her and how I wished to be a friend of hers, she said, “We have already been friends.” I felt so happy that I even sang a song. Hearing my song, she thought highly of it and asked me to teach her to sing it. She made me realize how unique I was and at last I came out of me shell.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知，作者跟随父母来到了一个新城镇，作为一名新生在学校的感觉很糟糕，作者很害羞，胆小，为自己感到羞愧，作者注意到了无所畏惧，直言不讳，容易相处的Emily，作者希望和她成为朋友，直到某一天一个早上发生了一些不同的事情。
续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：当我起身下车时，我的书包被卡在扶手上了。所以后文应该是讲述作者的书包被卡住，东西掉了出来，而Emily帮助了作者，二人开始相识起来；第二段开头是：我被Emily注意到了，她给了我勇气去开始一段新的友谊！本段应该写作者和Emily的友谊进展情况。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：with all my strength, fall on, talk with, have much in common等高级词汇；I began to talk with her and was surprised to find that we had much in common.运用了宾语从句；One day when I told her that I admired her and how I wished to be a friend of hers, she said, “We have already been friends.”运用了时间状语从句等高级句式。
