Nervous energy filled the air as we waited in front of the arrivals gate. This wasn’t just any normal airport pick-up. My husband and I were among a group of people who were about to meet their adopted children for the first time.
Six months earlier, we received a call that a six-year-old boy called Saroo, from India, had been separated from his family and was available for adoption. The agency gave us a tiny passport picture of our little boy, and I cherished it as we waited to meet him.
The moment I spotted Saroo, time stood still. “My son,” I whispered as my eyes welled with tears. “I’m your mum.” Despite Saroo’s broken English, we communicated using hands and expressions. Days later, we made the journey from Melbourne back to our home in Tasmania to get Saroo settled.
As weeks turned to months, his English started to improve with regular tutoring lessons. He told us his home had a dirt floor and no electricity. He said his oldest brother, Guddu, took him on a train, and when he woke up after a long time, Guddu was gone. That’s how he ended up in Howrah, Kolkata, where he was placed in state care. It was so sad to hear that.
Whenever he told me something new, I wrote it down in a diary.
Over the years, I asked Saroo if he’d like to visit India and learn about his life before coming to Australia. “It’s okay, Mum,” he’d say.
One day, my husband came home from work with some news. “Saroo has done something remarkable,” he started, explaining that for the past five years, Saroo had been trying to find his home village. Using my notes and the information we had about the first few years of his life, he’d managed to track down his village and birth place using Google Maps. I was astonished, but also felt happy he’d solved the mystery.
Soon, the media caught wind of the story and we were flooded with calls from across the world. The next year, 60 Minutes took us to India, where I met Saroo’s birth mother, as part of a documentary. Later, a production company even approached us wanting to make a film about our lives. You never knew your impact on the world.
24. What did the couple go to the airport for?
A. To see off their son. B. To go abroad to travel.
C. To meet their adopted child. D. To fetch a mailed passport
25. What can we learn about Saroo from Paragraph 4?
A. He made no progress in English.
B. He used to live a very poor life.
C. He knew where his brother was.
D. He made a living by begging.
26. How did Saroo manage to find his home village?
A. By seeking help from the police.
B. By making use of Google Maps.
C. By posting the notes on the media.
D. By going to India and asking local people.
27. What can we learn about the family from the last paragraph?
A. They regretted adopting Saroo.
B. They opened a film company.
C. Their story drew wide attention.
D. Their life was completely ruined.
【答案】24-27 CBBC
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。作者一家收养了一个印度男孩Saroo，文章讲述了Saroo在作者家的日常生活以及他如何通过谷歌地图找到了自己的家乡，还为此获得了媒体的关注。
24.细节理解题。根据第一段“Nervous energy filled the air as we waited in front of the arrivals gate. This wasn’t just any normal airport pick-up. My husband and I were among a group of people who were about to meet their adopted children for the first time.”（我们在到达处等候时，空气中充满了紧张的气氛。这可不是普通的机场接机。我丈夫和我就在一群即将第一次见到他们收养的孩子的人当中。）可知，这对夫妇去机场是为了见他们收养的孩子。）故选C。
25.推理判断题。根据第四段中“He told us his home had a dirt floor and no electricity.”（他告诉我们他家地板很脏，也没有电。）可推知，Saroo过去过着非常贫穷的生活。故选B。
26.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Using my notes and the information we had about the first few years of his life, he’d managed to track down his village and birth place using Google Maps.”（利用我的笔记和我们掌握的关于他最初几年的信息，他成功地通过谷歌地图找到了他的村庄和出生地。）可知，Saroo通过使用谷歌地图找到了他的家乡。故选B。
27.细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，媒体听到了这个消息后，作者一家接到了来自世界各地的电话。第二年，作为纪录片的一部分，《60分钟》带他们去了印度，在那里遇到了Saroo的生母。后来，一家制作公司甚至找到我们，想要拍一部关于作者一家生活的电影。可知这个家庭的故事引起了广泛关注。故选C。

C
Imagine looking at a view of mountaintops and wondering about the name of each peak. Suddenly, above each mountaintop, a name appears on the sky. The words are not written in smoke by skywriting planes. The words are actually not in the sky at all. They come from tiny computers in contact lenses(隐形眼镜).
Computers have become smaller and smaller over the decades. The first computers filled houses. Transistors(晶体管) and then chips allowed computers to become small enough to fit on a desktop, then a laptop, and finally a phone. When experimenting with further reductions in size, developers often have to deal with the limits of human eyesight, which control how small the computers can be and still present visible information.
One new solution employs microprojectors(微投影机) to create a readable display for tiny computers. These machines project computer information onto any surface. Though an impressive breakthrough, there are potential problems. Such public displays can lead to privacy concerns; Most people do not want their information displayed on a wall for everyone to see. Besides, these projectors are extremely expensive, and their screens give users headaches.
Babak Parviz, a researcher at the University of Washington, created another solution: inventing a screen visible only to a person wearing a contact lens. Parviz created a computer in a contact lens that uses the wearer’s field of vision as the display. To create the display, Parviz took ordinary soft contact lenses with a wirelessly controlled system. At some point, Parviz says, it will be possible to connect the lens to a remote personal computer device such as cellphone or a laptop. By looking in a certain direction, the wearer sends the computer visual information about what he or she sees. The device then uses this information to point out the names of peaks.
These contact lenses are inserted and removed in much the same way as ordinary contact lenses. In addition, the computers in the lenses won’t block the wearer’s sight at all. Although now the computers are not on lenses treating eyesight problems, Parviz hopes that someday the technology will progress to that level.
28. What can the contact lenses in the text do?
A. Treat eyesight problems of the wearers.
B. Offer beautiful views of nature to users.
C. Project information on wall surface remotely.
D. Show information about what wearers can see.
29. According to Paragraph 3, what can the microprojectors do?
A. Put people’s privacy at risk. B. Save computer information.
C. Cause serious illnesses. D. Support users’ needs.
30. What does the underlined part “that level” refer to in the text?
A. Further reducing computers’ size. B. Creating the visual information.
C. Treating eyesight problems. D. Blocking the wearer’s sight.
31. What might be the best title for the text?
A. Tiny Computers, Amazing Sights. B. Smaller Lenses, Closer Views.
C. Progress Towards Clearness. D. Road to the Small World.
【答案】28-31 DACA
【解析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了置于隐形眼镜中的计算机可以帮助人们看到所见事物的相关信息。但同时也带来了问题，研发人员提出了两个解决方法。
28.细节理解题。根据第一段的“The words are actually not in the sky at all. They come from tiny computers in contact lenses(隐形眼镜).”（这些文字事实上不是在天空。它们来自隐形眼镜中的微型计算机。）可知，隐形眼镜可以显示佩戴者看到的东西的信息。D选项符合以上说法，故选D项。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段的“there are potential problems. Such public displays can lead to privacy concerns”可知，新的解决方案虽然取得了突破，但也存在潜在的问题。信息的公开会导致对隐私的担心。由此推测，微型投影仪会让人们的隐私处于危险中。A选项符合以上说法，故选A项。
30.词义猜测题。根据最后一可知，尽管现在电脑还不能用来治疗视力问题，但Parviz希望将来的某天这项技术能进步到那个水平。结合上下文可知，划线部分是指“用镜片上的电脑治疗视力问题”。C选项（治疗视力问题）符合以上猜测，故选C项。
31.主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段“Imagine looking at a view of mountaintops and wondering about the name of each peak. Suddenly, above each mountaintop, a name appears on the sky. The words are not written in smoke by skywriting planes. The words are actually not in the sky at all. They come from tiny computers in contact lenses(隐形眼镜)”（想象一下看着山峰，想知道每座山峰的名字。突然，在每座峰顶上的天空出现了它的名字。这些名字不是由飞机放烟在空中写成的，事实上这些话根本不存在于天上，它们来自于隐形眼镜力微型电脑。）可知，本文主要讲述了通过隐形眼镜上的微型电脑，人们可以看到所见事物的相关信息。A选项可以作为本篇标题，故选A项。

D
More than half of the birds in Washington are at risk of extinction because of climate change. That’s according to a new national report from the Audubon Society, which gives detailed analysis of climate effects on about 600 species of North American birds.
It’s based on more than 140 million observations of birds across the US, Mexico and Canada. Audubon scientists looked at the likely effects of sea-level rise, urbanization, drought, extreme spring heat, increased fires, heavy rain and other factors.
But it doesn’t just spell out a doomsday scenario(世界末日). Instead, it offers a range of effects and warming, depending on how much carbon humans add to the atmosphere.
“It is truly an existential threat(威胁), not only to birds but to people,” said Doug Santoni, board chair of Audubon Washington, who looked into the report as soon as it came out.
Santoni says he was struck to see the vulnerability(脆弱)of a common “ backyard bird”, the dark-eyed junco. It’s one that many first-time birders become familiar with as they learn how to identify species based on their markings and other traits. Currently in Washington, you can count on juncos to show up at your feeder, all year round. Extreme spring heat, increased fires and heavy rain are the kinds of changes that will force birds like these north, or kill them off if they fail to adapt.
Trina Bayard, director of bird conservation at Audubon’s Washington chapter, says, “It’s certainly a very serious warning report,” but adds that there’s still hope. “If we can stabilize current temperatures and decrease our emissions(排放), we can really reduce the effects to these birds...that’s very motivating.”
32. What can we know about the new report?
A. It analyses the species of birds in detail.
B. It’s issued by watching 600 bird species.
C. It shows the end of North American birds.
D. It reports the threat some birds are facing.
33. What may Santoni probably agree with?
A. Climate change is a threat only to birds.
B. It’s too late to take action to save the birds.
C. The current situation of the birds is worrying.
D. It’s common that birds are affected by climate change.
34. Which of the following can help these birds according to Trina?
A. Lowering present temperatures.
B. Reducing our daily emissions.
C. Making them adapt to climate change.
D. Encouraging people to protect them.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Climate change threatens many Washington bird species
B. A new report about 600 species of North American birds
C. Different attitudes towards the situation of bird species
D. Climate change makes different kinds of species at risk
【答案】32-35 DCBA
【解析】本文是说明文。气候变化使得华盛顿州一半以上的鸟类处于危险之中，一项新的报道详细阐述了气候变化对北美600多种鸟类物种的影响。鸟类专家称“虽然情况很糟糕，但是通过稳定目前的温度和减少排放等方法，我们可以减少这些影响”。
32.细节理解题。根据第一段首句“More than half of the birds in Washington are at risk of extinction because of climate change.”和第三段“But it doesn’t just spell out a doomsday scenario(世界末日).”可知，这篇新的报告详细叙述了气候变化对北美一些鸟类物种的影响，这种威胁很严重，但不是说这些鸟类的世界末日到了。故选D项。
33.推理判断题。根据第四段“It is truly an existential threat(威胁), not only to birds but to people”和第五段dark-eyed junco的例子可知，Santoni认为气候变化是真正影响鸟类和人类生存的威胁。他对于这种普通的dark-eyed junco鸟类受到的伤害和影响感到很震惊。这些都说明鸟类的现状令人担忧，故选C项。
34.细节理解题。根据最后一段中最后一句“If we can stabilize current temperatures and decrease our emissions(排放), we can really reduce the effects to these birds...that’s very motivating.”可知，我们可以通过稳定目前的温度和减少排放来减少对这些鸟类的影响。故选B项。
35.主旨大意题。根据第一段及下文内容可知，文章主要介绍一项新的报告，气候变化使得华盛顿州一半以上的鸟类处于危险之中。这项报告详细阐述了气候变化对北美600左右的鸟类物种的影响。Climate change threatens many Washington bird species概括了全文内容，适合作为标题，故选A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。
Things to Do Before You Study
Many students think about how to best spend their time while studying. But what comes before study sessions can be important too, especially if you want to improve your memory of what you have learned. 36 Let’s look at each of these in turn.
Exercise
Before you study, doing cardiovascular exerciser(有氧训练) may help you better remember what you learn. High-intensity exercise may be especially helpful.
In a 2018 study, researchers found that a group of young people who did 15 minutes of high-intensity training on a treadmill(跑步机) remembered more words. 37 The important idea is this: exercise is good for your memory. Even if you cannot exercise right before a study session, it is still probably a good idea to be active in general.
Location
38 While it is good to have a desk or a special study area, some research suggests that changing where you study could help you remember more of what you study.
Our memories sometimes depend on things in our environment. For example, a book might remind you of something interesting or strange you learned while reading it. 39 You could study in your room, and then the next day you could study in the kitchen, or outside. You do not have to change locations every day, but try to at least sometimes.
Pre-study test
Students often study with a test in mind. They consider the test the final step to show how much they have learned. 40 Testing is one of the best ways to make yourself remember new information.
In 2018 researchers found that students who took a test before learning new material did much better after studying the material. So, try to take a pre-study test You could look at some important words at the end of a chapter of an English book, for example. And you could ask yourself what they mean, or how they are used. While you might not know the answer, you will probably be better able to learn and remember the answer when you study it!
A. In practice, students need to test themselves often.
B. Location is also important for improving your learning.
C. Therefore, be sure to plan your location before you start to study.
D. Environmental context played a big part in how well people remembered words,
E. Researchers have suggested combining the two to get the best effects for your memory.
F. Some studies have also shown high-intensity exercise plays an essential part in improving the memories of older people.
G. Three important elements should be taken into consideration before studying.
【答案】36-40 GFBCA
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。许多学生都在考虑如何最有效地利用学习时间，但学习前的准备也很重要，尤其是如果你想巩固对所学知识的记忆的话。文章主要介绍了几种在学习前可以提高记忆力的方法。
36.通过后文的“Let’s look at each of these in turn.”（让我们依次看看每一个）以及下文的内容推出G项（在研究之前，应考虑三个重要因素。）符合语境，Three与下文的依次地呼应。故选G。
37.上文提示：研究人员发现，一组在跑步机上做了15分钟高强度训练的年轻人能记住更多的单词。因此高强度的运动对学习有益，故F项（一些研究还表明，高强度运动在改善老年人的记忆方面起着至关重要的作用。）正确。
38.下文提示：虽然有一张学习桌或专门的学习区域是很好的，但一些研究表明，改变你学习的地方可以帮助你记住更多的学习内容。可知地点对于提高你的学习效果也很重要。且本段的小标题Location与B选项的内容一致。故选B项。
39.根据本段的中心Location以及空格后一句（你可以在你的房间里学习，然后第二天你可以在厨房或外面学习。）可知这里是继续陈述学习的地点。因此，在你开始学习之前，一定要计划好你的学习地点。故选C项。
40.根据前文的“They consider the test the final step to show how much they have learned.”和后文的“Testing is one of the best ways to make yourself remember new information.”可知是说考试的重要性，故A项（在实践中，学生需要经常自我检测。）符合题意，并且与小标题Pre-study test保持一致。故选A项。

We’ve all been there before: You’re driving down the road when suddenly a pothole(凹坑) seems to appear out of nowhere and sends the 41 jumping. Most people think potholes are 42 , but artist Jim Bachor sees them as a canvas(画布) for his artwork.
Bachor uses the 43 art form of mosaic(马赛克) to create eye-catching, colorful images of famous artists like Aretha Franklin or simple everyday 44 like food. He even makes less-appealing visuals of insects.
Bachor was a graphic designer for 20 years before he began his 45 in mosaic. He regards an incidental trip to Europe as his motivation to change careers. While 46 in Italy, Bachor fell in love with Pompeii, the preserved ancient Roman city. A tour guide pointed out a mosaic, made of mainly glass and marble, and told Bachor, “Glass and marble don’t 47 . So, this looks essentially the way the artist intended.” Bachor says, “That kind of staying power just 48 me so much.”
A year later Bachor returned to attend a mosaic class in Ravenna, Italy, to learn the proper way to 49 the ancient technique. Years after that, he mastered the technique. He 50 that mosaics can be just as significant today as the art form over 1,000 years ago. “I just saw that there was a(n) 51 to bring it into the new age as a contemporary subject,” he says.
So, Bachor decided to make a special piece of 52 for that pothole. He has 53 mosaic pothole art around Chicago, Detroit, New York City and even in Finland.
While he may not be getting 54 from drivers or passengers, Bachor’s art is 55 a pleasant surprise to discover.

When you think of the Arctic, you imagine an icy land of pure white snow, which is considered to be the last really clean place 56 (leave) on Earth. Yet plastic trash has now reached the remote regions of the Arctic and the Alps. A team of 57 (scientist) has discovered large quantities of microplastics(微塑料) — very small pieces of plastic waste — in the Arctic snow. While microplastics have been found in sea-water, drinking water, and even in animals over 58 past several years, this is the first study to show microplastics in snow, 59 indicates it is an airborne pollutant that must be paid attention to.
The researchers state that microplastics in snow suggest that microplastics may be in the air that we 60 (breath). Therefore, it is really important 61 (assess) if microplastics also reach lung tissues.
Previous research has found that they flow over long distances and into our oceans, 62 (damage) ecosystems along the way. They start in our wastewater, when we wash clothes 63 plastic fibers. The wastewater then flows into rivers and out to sea, where they 64 (eat) by sea animals. If people then eat these animals, it means that we’re 65 (probable) eating the plastic as well.
【答案】
56. left 57. scientists 58. the 59. which 60. breathe
61. to assess 62. damaging 63. with 64. are eaten 65. probably
【解析】
56.考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处是过去分词短语作后置定语。
57.考查名词的数。此处表示一队科学家，表示复数概念，所以用名词的复数形式。
58.考查冠词。over the past several years表示在过去的几年中，是固定用法，故填the。
59.考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，此处是非限制性定语从句，定语从句缺少主语，因此用which。
60.考查动词。所填词在此处作谓语，因此应该用动词形式。
61.考查非谓语动词。it is important to do sth.是固定句型，it作形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式短语。故填to assess。
62.考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处要用现在分词短语作结果状语。
63.考查介词。此处表示“带有”，因此用介词with。
64.考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。由flows可知这里是一般现在时，又因they与eat是被动关系，且主语they是复数形式，故填are eaten。
65.考查副词。此处修饰动词，要用副词形式。

Holidays are not necessarily for fun or rest. Doing something meaningful can also gain special pleasure. When the final bell rang, the students were reminded that there was no school on Monday — the Labor Day. “Enjoy your extra day off,” said the teacher to her class.
An extra day of fun suited Kayla just fine. She loved breaks. She wanted to go out to play with her friends. When the school bus dropped Kayla off, she ran into the house happily.
“How was school, Kayla?” asked her mom.
“It was great, Mom. I am excited about no school on Monday.”
“You just started back to school two weeks ago. Already in need of a break, huh?” asked Kayla’s mom with a laugh.
Kayla slept in the next morning. Saturday was her favorite day of the week. It rained most of the day, so Kayla enjoyed playing video games inside. On Sunday, her friends came over and they played basketball for several hours.
Then it was Labor Day, you know, the extra day off that Kayla was so looking forward to. But Kayla was awakened early that morning by her dad. He told Kayla that in honor of Labor Day, the family would be cleaning both inside and outside the house. Kayla couldn’t believe it. This was a holiday. A day when she was supposed to be enjoying freshly squeezed lemonade while playing in her tree house. As Kayla wiped her eyes, she began to wonder if this was just a bad dream.
“Kayla, your breakfast is ready. We have a lot of work to do today. Let’s get a move on,”said Kayla’s mom. As she sat down at the kitchen table, Kayla asked her parents, “Are you serious about working today? Isn’t Labor Day a holiday?”
“Yes, Kayla. It is,” replied her dad. “But your mom and I thought working hard today would make you appreciate why Labor Day was observed in the first place. ”
Paragraph 1:
At first, Kayla felt disappointed at her parents’ plan for the holiday.






Paragraph 2:
But things began to change as she was doing the chores.

Paragraph 1:
At first, Kayla felt disappointed at her parents’ plan for the holiday. How eagerly she wanted to go to out to play with her friends! She was against the annoying plan from the bottom of her heart, but she had no choice. First, Kayla was arranged to wash the breakfast dishes. After that, she was asked to give their puppy a bath. She knew it was a hard task, which needed a lot of tiring, careful and patient work. She has begun the work with great unwillingness.
Paragraph 2:
But things began to change as she was doing the chores. Brushing the puppy, she found it was a lot of fun with so many soap bubbles. Then it was on to yard work where Kayla helped to pick up sticks. She pretended the small sticks were basketballs, and shot them into a large trash can. So the work was done with great pleasure. Kayla felt proud to see how much better the yard looked. When she finished her meaningful chores, Kayla enjoyed relaxing in her tree house. The lemonade tasted wonderful after a hard day of work.
