一、阅读理解
Some libraries use unique architecture to encourage visitors to explore the racks and settle down with a new book, or use flowing libraries to bring books to hard-to-reach populations.
Kansas City Library (Kansas City, Missouri)
Along the south wall of this parking garage’s exterior, visitors are treated to what looks like a huge shelf of books. The building originally served as a bank, which is readily apparent when the library has screenings in its Vault Theater, inside an actual 1925 bank vault.
Stuttgart City Library (Stuttgart, Germany)
Opened in 2011, this nine-story public library designed by Eun Young Yi is characterized by its impressive white-on-white color scheme, its bold cubic shape and its cavernous interior. This cultural center for the city, designed to feel open and full of light, can be entered from any of its four sides, and readers can borrow artwork as well as books.
The Camel Library Service (North Eastern Province, Kenya)
To fight with low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya, the government created a roaming library composed of nine camels to bring books to villages. The library travels four days a week serving the region’s migratory people. Currently the service focuses on children, but with more funding they plan to increase their reach both in distance and the titles they carry.
Macquarie University Library (Sydney, Australia)
A stunning combination of cutting edge and sustainable, this building was made from recycled materials, features a green roof, and was designed to imitate the look of a eucalyptus tree. It is also state of the art, using robot cranes to bring requested books to the front desk.

A Georgia mom is winning praise for the way she’s teaching her children, aged 13,10 and 6, about money.
Shaketha MeGregor, a single mother in Dublin, Georgia, knew she needed a solution after frequent requests from her three kids for things like new toys and money to do things with their friends.
She came up with the unique idea to host a “job fair(就业展览会)”for her three children, Jahkeem, in seventh grade, Takeia, in fifth grade, and Serinity, in first grade. The three positions at the job fair were the kitchen manager, lead housekeeper and laundry supervisor(洗衣房主管).Children had to earn their pocket money by doing a job.
Jahkeem, Takeia and Serinity each picked the job they wanted to apply for, filled out the application and had interviews with their employer-their mom.
“My oldest and my youngest both applied for the lead housekeeper,” McGregor said.“ As to my 6-year-old daughter Serinity, I was more impressed with her application and her interview than my 13-year-old son Jahkeem.”
”I want them to be familiar with the process when they are older,“ she said. ”Whether they’re applying to a school or for a new job. they can look back and say, “I did this with Mom years ago.” As a parent you want to protect your children as much as possible, but you know that eventually they’ll have to experience it on their own and a child’s greatest lesson in life is going through the process.
MeGregor’s post on Facebook where she shared her job fair idea now has more than 200,000 likes. She said she hoped it inspired other parents to think outside of the box and let their kids’ voices be heard.“ What I’m realizing is that kids just want to be part of something. The first-hand experience is the best way to educate children,” McGregor said.
4．What do you know about McGregor’s solution?
A．It is creative. B．It’s uninteresting
C．It is strange. D．It’s traditional.
5．How can Takeia get the new toy she wants according to the passage?
A．By doing housework. B．By behaving well.
C．By getting good marks. D．By listening to McGregor.
6．What can we infer from the result of the job fair?
A．Serinity was awarded a new toy.
B．Serinity got the position as a kitchen manager.
C．Takeia became the lead housekeeper at the fair.
D．Jahkeen didn’t get the job he had applied for.
7．What do we know from the last paragraph?
A．Children should always listen to their parents views.
B．Parents should pay their children for anything.
C．MeGregor’s post is well received online.
D．MeGregor’s idea is suitable for all families.

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent hard work won’t ensure you the level of success you may want, but it will ensure that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
8．Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.
A．the meaning of success B．the reasons for success
C．the standards of success D．the importance of success
9．In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “that” refers to ______.
A．setting a practical goal B．being good at something
C．putting in more time D．succeeding in life
10．Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.
A．it takes a lot of time to succeed
B．work makes one feel pain
C．one gives up his work easily
D．one tends to enjoy his work
11．What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A．Successful people like to show their great skills.
B．People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C．People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D．It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.

Israeli company Watergen has produced a device that generates clean, drinkable water out of air. The device called GENNY is small enough to be used in a home or office but can generate up to 30 liters of water a day. The water that GENNY produces is not only clean enough to drink, it’s also often cleaner than tap water.
GENNY takes air in and passes it through a filter (过滤器) to remove dust and dirt. The filter is powerful enough to work even in areas with high air pollution. The air then passes through a chamber where heating and cooling cause water vapor in the air to condense (凝结). This water is then passed through several more filters and minerals are added to make it healthier and taste better. Finally, the water is stored in a tank where it is continually circulated to keep it fresh.
A larger model, called the GEN-350, can produce up to 900 liters of water per day. The GEN-350 is now being used in hospitals that previously did not have a reliable source of fresh, clean water. Watergen has also developed an emergency response vehicle (ERV) that can carry a GEN-350 unit wherever it is needed. In addition to the GEN-350, the ERV carries a portable generator that supplies electricity for the GEN-350.
Watergen’s ERV is designed to bring water to people suffering from the effects of a serious earthquake, fire, flood or other situations. Once such an incident occurred in California in 2018. A fire started at a camp site and spread quickly over a wide area, destroying many thousands of acres of trees and many homes. One of Watergen’s ERVs was driven there and it provided water for its citizens and rescue workers. Besides, they also provided clean safe water for the residents of Texas and Florida in the aftermath of the devastation caused by hurricane’s Harvey and Irma.
12．What can we know about Watergen’s devices?
A．They’re available in different sizes.
B．They’ re made in numerous countries.
C．They’re extremely difficult to operate.
D．They produce less water in polluted regions.
13．The GENNY adds minerals to .
A．keep the water fresh and clean B．meet the water safety criteria
C．remove dust and dirt from the water D．improve the flavor of the water
14．What can Watergen do using its ERV?
A．Deal with customers’ complaints. B．Outperform its competitors.
C．Supply electricity for local people. D．Respond to natural disasters.
15．What is the purpose of the text?
A．To advertise an Israeli company.
B．To introduce an Israeli water device.
C．To explain the principles of purifying water.
D．To recommend a new brand of drinking water.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了全球海平面上升的现状和其所带来的危害。
41．考查动词和时态。句意：他们发现，海洋有记录以来最热的5年发生在2015年之后，1986年以来的升温速度1960-1985年的8倍。句子表述的事情发生在2015年之后的5年，即在过去的过去，应用过去完成时。故填had occurred。
42．考查代词。句意：他们发现，海洋有记录以来最热的5年发生在2015年之后，1986年以来的升温速度1960-1985年的8倍。本处是并列成分（主语之间）的比较，than后用that代替主语the rate of heating。故填that。
43．考查定语从句。句意：海洋覆盖了地球的71%，水吸收的热量是空气的数千倍，这就是为什么全球93%的热量都来自海洋。本处是非限定性定语从句，空处是引导词，指代前面整个句子，用which。故填which。
44．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：更热的海洋破坏了降雨模式，会导致洪水、干旱和野火。本句是非限定性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，故谓语用单数形式；从句表述客观真理，用一般现在时。故填leads。
45．考查非谓语动词。句意：高温还会导致海水膨胀，使海平面上升。cause sb. to do是固定用法，译为“导致……做某事”。故填to expand。
46．考查非谓语动词。句意：科学家预计，到本世纪末，海平面将上升约1米，威胁到1.5亿人。本句已有谓语，空处用非谓语；sea level rise与threaten之间是主动关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。故填threatening。
47．考查固定搭配。句意：更高的海洋温度也在伤害海洋生物，海洋热浪的数量急剧增加。本处表示“……的数量”，用固定搭配the number of。故填the。
48．考查副词。句意：更高的海洋温度也在伤害海洋生物，海洋热浪的数量急剧增加。空处缺副词作状语，修饰形容词increasing。故填sharply。
49．考查名词。句意：这意味着表层温度进一步升高，海洋生物从深处获得的营养物质更少。空处填名词作介词 from的宾语；根据英文提示，空处填表示“深处”的词，用depth的复数形式depths。故填depths。
50．考查介词。句意：2020年，尽管全球碳排放出现了创纪录的下降，但海洋温度又达到了创纪录的水平。空处表示“尽管”，后接名词性短语，可用despite。故填despite。

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者参加一项名为“农活计划”的活动的经过以及感悟。
【详解】1.考查固定短语。句意：作为一名学生，我很少有机会工作，因为我的时间表很满。短语owing to表示“因为”。故owing后添加to。
2.考查代词。句意：但是一个叫农活计划的活动给我留下了深刻的印象。此处指给作者“我”留下深刻印象，应用代词me。故you改为me。
3.考查形容词。句意：在项目期间，我不得不早起，和同学一起做安排好的农活。修饰farm work应用形容词arranged (安排的)，作定语。故arranging改为arranged。
4.考查时态。句意：例如，我们帮助植物浇水和采摘蔬菜。描述过去发生的事情，谓语动词help应用一般过去时。故help改为helped。
5.考查状语从句的省略。句意：在工作时，我意识到用自己的双手工作是多么困难。在while引导的时间状语从句中，当从句主语和主句主语一致且从句含有be的某种形式时，可省略从句的主语和be，相当于省略了I was，原句为：While I was working，现在分词working表主动。故work改为working。
6.考查形容词。句意：在工作时，我意识到用自己的双手工作是多么困难。作表语，表示“困难”应用形容词hard。故hardly改为hard。
7.考查感叹句。句意：享受自己的劳动成果是多么幸福啊！此处感叹形容词happy应用how，首字母大写。故What改为How。
8.考查句子结构。句意：在家里，我们可以帮助父母做一些家务。At home作地点状语，we can help our parents do some housework为简单句，不需要where。故where删除。
9.考查介词。句意：晚饭后我们可以帮忙洗碗。表示“晚饭后”应用介词after。故before改为after。
10.考查比较级。句意：记住，没有什么比看到我们努力工作的结果更能让我们开心的了。“否定词+比较级”等于最高级，根据后文“than seeing the results of our hard work”可知应用比较级happier。故happy改为happier。
52．参考范文：
Time arrangement is an important skill to develop. If your time isn't well managed, your day can be full of demands and interruptions. On the other hand, if your time is well managed, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
To manage your time, first of all, you should spend some time planning your day every morning, listing your tasks in order of importance. Secondly, you should avoid interruptions as much as possible. When you're working on a task, try to focus your time and energy on it and complete it before getting up to do something else.
Follow the suggestions mentioned above, and you will surely make the most out of each day.
