About five weeks ago,I noticed the skin of our pet lizard(蜥蜴) was growing dusty.It worried me.I reported the strange surface on the skin of the lizard to my husband and children the next morning.Seconds later,our lizard emerged from its tank with its old skin flowing behind it.
I didn?t think about it much until a morning last week when I knocked my favorite teapot off the table.It burst into hundreds of pieces.As I swept up the mess,I wondered why we had been breaking so many things over the months.
The destruction started three months ago.It was my husband?s birthday.He had just lost his job.The uncertainty was starting to wear on us,so I wanted to do something special.
“Let?s make a cake for Dad!” I cried.
My kids screamed with joy.We baked,iced and sprinkled for most of the day.Candles on the cake! Balloons on the walls! Flowers on the table!
Two hours before my husband came back home from another job interview,my daughter climbed up to grab a glass vase from a high shelf.It fell and crashed beside the cake.Tiny pieces of glass were everywhere.She sobbed loudly as I threw the cake away.My husband had banana pudding for his birthday.
Three days ago,the light in our living room suddenly went out.After several frustrating hours of unsuccessful attempts to fix it,my husband suggested watching the Michael Jordan documentary (纪录片) series The Last Dance.
The poignancy(酸楚) of Jordan retiring from his beloved basketball to play baseball and what had pushed him to make such a tough decision took me by surprise.As I watched him take off his basketball uniform and replace it with a baseball uniform,I saw him leaving behind the layer that no longer served him,just as our lizard had.Neither of them chose the moment that had transformed them.But they had to live with who they were after everything was different.Just like us.I realized that we have to learn to leave the past behind. 
Humans do not shed skin(蜕皮) as easily as other animals.The beginning of change is upsetting.The process is tiring.Damage changes us before we are ready.I see our lizard,raw and nearly new.
Jordan said that no matter how it ends,it starts with hope.With our tender,hopeful skin,that is where we begin.

40.What can we learn about the pet lizard from Paragraph 1?
A.Its tank grew dirty.
B.Its old skin came off.
C.It got a skin disease.
D.It went missing.
41.Why did the author?s husband have banana pudding for his birthday?
A.The birthday cake was ruined.
B.The author made good puddings.
C.Pudding was his favorite dessert.
D.They couldn?t afford a birthday cake.
42.Why does the author mention The Last Dance in the passage?
A.To prove a theory.
B.To define a concept.
C.To develop the theme.
D.To provide the background.
43.The underlined part “leaving behind the layer” in Paragraph 8 can be understood as 　　　　. 
A.letting go of the past
B.looking for a new job
C.getting rid of a bad habit
D.giving up an opportunity
44.What does the author most likely want to tell us?
A.Love of family helps us survive great hardships.
B.It?s not the end of the world if we break things.
C.We should move on no matter what happens.
D.Past experiences should be treasured.
C
A trial project by the Montreal Children?s Hospital suggested that the use of medical hypnosis(催眠) can reduce pain and anxiety in patients.The project also resulted in a reduction in the amount of medicines used to perform medical-imaging(医学影像) procedures.
“During the examination children don?t move.It works perfectly.It?s amazing,” said Johanne L?Ecuyer,a medical-imaging technologist at the hospital.
The project was inspired by a French team from Rouen University Hospital Centre where examinations are done under hypnosis instead of general anesthesia(麻醉).
A French medical-imaging technologist—also a hypnotist—was invited to train a few members in the medical-imaging department of the children?s hospital.In all,80 examinations were conducted for the project between January and September,2019,focusing on the imaging procedures that would cause anxiety.
Hypnosis is not a state of sleep: It is rather a modified(改变的) state of consciousness.The technologist will guide the patient to this modified state—an imaginary world that will disassociate itself more and more from the procedure that follows.
“The technologist must build up a story with the patient,” Ms.L?Ecuyer said.“The patient is left with the power to choose what he wants to talk about.Do you play sports? Do you like going to the beach? We establish a subject that we will discuss throughout the procedure.”
Everything that happens next during the procedure must be related to this story—an injection(注射) becomes the bite of an insect;the heat on the skin becomes the sensation of the sun and a machine that rings becomes a police car passing nearby.
“The important thing is that the technologist associates what is happening outside the patient?s body with what the patient sees in his head,” Ms.L?Ecuyer said.“It requires creativity on the part of the technologist,imagination,a lot of patience and kindness.”
The procedure appealed to the staff a lot when it was introduced in January.“It spread like wildfire that someone from France was here to train the technologists,” Ms.L?Ecuyer said.She added that she had a line of staff at her door wanting to take the training.
45.One of the results produced by the trial project is 　　　　. 
A.a better understanding of children
B.less use of certain medicines
C.new medical-imaging technology
D.an improved reputation of the hospital
46.The French technologist came to the children?s hospital to 　　　　. 
A.assist in treating a patient
B.carry out hypnosis training
C.start up a new department
D.learn about the procedure
47.According to Paragraph 5,hypnosis works by 　　　　. 
A.creating a perfect world for patients
B.forcing patients into a state of deep sleep
C.putting patients into an unconscious state
D.leading patients? consciousness away from reality
48.What can we learn about the story used in the procedure?
A.It should keep pace with the procedure.
B.It reflects the patient?s creativity.
C.It is selected by the technologist.
D.It tells what doctors are doing to the patient.
49.The procedure was received among the staff with 　　　　. 
A.uncertainty B.enthusiasm
C.worry D.criticism
50.What is the passage mainly about?
A.All easy way to communicate with patients.
B.The standard method of conducting hypnosis.
C.An introduction of medical-imaging technology.
D.The use of hypnosis in medical-imaging procedures.
D
There is something to be said for being a generalist,even if you are a specialist.Knowing a little about a lot of things that interest you can add to the richness of a whole,well-lived life.
Society pushes us to specialize,to become experts.This requires commitment to a particular occupation,branch of study or research.The drawback to being specialists is we often come to know more and more about less and less.There is a great deal of pressure to master one?s field.You may pursue training,degrees,or increasing levels of responsibility at work.Then you discover the pressure of having to keep up.
Some people seem willing to work around the clock in their narrow specialty.But such commitment can also weaken a sense of freedom.These specialists could work at the office until ten each night,then look back and realize they would have loved to have gone home and enjoyed the sweetness of their family and friends,or traveled to exciting places,meeting interesting people.Mastering one thing to the exclusion(排除) of others can hold back your true spirit.
Generalists,on the other hand,know a lot about a wide range of subjects and view the whole with all its connections.They are people of ability,talent,and enthusiasm who can bring their broad perspective(视角) into specific fields of expertise(专长).The doctor who is also a poet and philosopher is a superior doctor,one who can give so much more to his patients than just good medical skills.
Things are connected.Let your expertise in one field fuel your passions in all related areas.Some of your interests may not appear to be connected but,once you explore their depths,you discover that they are.My editor Toni,who is also a writer,has edited several history books.She has decided to study Chinese history.Fascinated by the structural beauty of the Forbidden City as a painter,she is equally interested to learn more about Chinese philosophy.“I don?t know where it will lead,but I?m excited I?m on this pursuit.”
These expansions into new worlds help us by giving us new perspectives.We begin to see the interconnectedness of one thing to another in all aspects of our life,of ourselves and the universe.Develop broad,general knowledge and experience.The universe is all yours to explore and enjoy.
51.To become a specialist,one may have to 　　　　. 
A.narrow his range of knowledge
B.avoid responsibilities at work
C.know more about the society
D.broaden his perspective on life
52.The specialists mentioned in Paragraph 3 tend to 　　　　. 
A.treasure their freedom
B.travel around the world
C.spend most time working
D.enjoy meeting funny people
53.According to the author,a superior doctor is one who 　　　　. 
A.is fully aware of his talent and ability
B.is a pure specialist in medicine
C.should love poetry and philosophy
D.brings knowledge of other fields to work
54.What does the author intend to show with the example of Toni?
A.Passion alone does not ensure a person?s success.
B.In-depth exploration makes discoveries possible.
C.Everyone has a chance to succeed in their pursuit.
D.Seemingly unrelated interests are in a way connected.
55.What could be the best title for the passage?
A.Be More a Generalist Than a Specialist
B.Specialist or Generalist: Hard to Decide
C.Turn a Generalist into a Specialist
D.Ways to Become a Generalist

第三部分:写作
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
　　阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
I?ve always been creative since I was a little girl.My childhood was filled with arts,crafts(手工) and music,and every day was an exciting adventure of creation.
Somewhere along the way,however,I lost touch with my creative self.At 21,I landed a job at a big insurance company out of my business degree.I would go to the office,sit at my desk and repeat the same work five days a week 9 to 5.The days were long and tedious.Working this way for one year was painful enough,let alone a lifetime.Before long I decided to make a change.
One thing I had developed an interest in was sewing,so I took a sewing course at a community college.It was only a five-week course but it awakened my interest and got my confidence up.
As I dreamt bigger,I began looking into college courses for Fashion Design and three months later I signed up for a part-time design course.I attended classes two nights a week.Although exhausting,it gave me energy,enthusiasm and happiness.
As it became clearer that fashion was what I wanted to do full time,the reality of my day-to-day work at the insurance company became harder.I felt bored.No energy,no motivation and zero fulfillment(满足感).
I knew I needed to make a bigger change.After struggling for quite a while,I made a difficult decision—leaving my job and studying my design course full time.Two years later I got my diploma.
The last few years have been exciting because I?ve been following my heart to do what I love.Today I am living a creative life as the designer of my own fashion brand.
Sometimes it?s hard to make a change,but I?m so glad I set the wheels of change in motion with that very small first step because it has led me to where I am today.
56.What was the author interested in when she was a little girl?(no more than 10 words)
 
57.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?(1 word)
 
58.How did the author feel when she was taking the part-time design course?(no more than 10 words)

英语知识运用
第一节
1.B　考查情景交际。句意:——你看完我给你的那本书了吗?——没有完全看完,我仍在读最后一章。A项意为“很难说”;B项意为“没有完全看完”;C项意为“当然”;D项意为“视情况而定”。
2.C　考查连词辨析。句意:无论是在工作中,在家还是在学校,我们都需要参与到节约能源中。whether...or... “无论……还是……”。
3.A　考查动词的时态。句意:上午我们已经干了足够的工作,现在让我们休息一会儿吧。表示已经做了,使用现在完成时。
4.B　考查形容词辨析。句意:攀岩的时候,你需要非常专注,这样才不会犯危险性的错误。satisfied“满意的”;focused“专注的”;amused“高兴的”;delighted“高兴的”。
5.A　考查短语辨析。句意:学生们被鼓励掌控他们自己的学习,而不只是依赖老师。rather than“而不是”;regardless of“无论,不管”;due to“因为,由于”;in terms of“就……方面而言”。
6.D　考查情景交际。句意:——项目进展的如何?——到目前为止一切顺利。我们需要做的就是完成最后一点儿工作。A项意为“来得容易去得快”;B项意为“还差得很远;远非如此”;C项意为“完全可以”;D项意为“到目前为止一切顺利”。
7.B　考查名词辨析。句意:医学的进步给公共卫生带来了巨大的改善。tradition“传统”;advance“进步”;pressure“压力”;example“例子”。
8.A　考查定语从句。句意:William Hastie曾经指出,历史会告诉我们过去的错误。我们可以从中学习避免重复它们。通过分析句子结构可知,这里考查定语从句,先行词为“past mistakes”,后面从句中谓语是learn,可知搭配为“learn from...”。
9.C　考查非谓语动词做状语。句意:中国的318国道,从上海到西藏樟木,延伸了5 000多千米。因其令人惊叹的景色而称之为“天路”。本句的主句China?s National Highway 318 is known as the “heavenly road” for its amazing views.已经有了一个谓语动词“is”,英文中逗号不能连接两个主句,因此这里只能使用非谓语动词做状语。“extend”和句子主语“China?s National Highway 318”之间为主动关系,应使用现在分词形式。不定式多用于表示“目的”和“将来”;过去分词表示“被动”和“完成”;being done则表示“正在被”,都不吻合题意。
10.A　考查副词辨析。句意:随着居家办公变得越来越普遍,人们发现将为人父母与全职工作相结合变得越来越容易。increasingly“日益增加地,越来越”;equally“同等地”;nervously“紧张地”;confusingly“令人困惑地”。
11.C　考查动词辨析。句意:Henry David Thoreau乐于从社交生活中抽身出来,在宁静的生活中寻求一种与自然的和谐关系。judge“判断”;differ“与……不同”; withdraw“退出,离开”;benefit“从……中受益”。
12.D　考查动词的时态和语态。句意:目前,大约有35 000件作品在卢浮宫的300多个展室里被展览。要将每一件展品看完,恐怕要花费一生的时间。根据“currently”可知指“现在”,又因为作品“works”与展览“display”之间是被动关系,所以使用现在进行时的被动语态“are being displayed”。
13.B　考查表语从句。句意:令Lily的朋友们困惑的是,她为什么总是有这么多疯狂的想法。分析句子结构,可知这里考查表语从句,根据句意从句中缺少原因状语,故而用why引导。
14.C　考查情态动词辨析。句意:过去你可能在这里开车行驶几英里都看不到一个人,但是现在到处都是房屋和人。used to表示“过去……”,结合句意这里表示一种客观可能性的存在,所以用could。
15.A　考查定语从句。句意:在中国艺术节上有不同的展台,在那里,艺术家们展示他们的技艺并教授游客们。stand意为“展台,摊位”。这里考查定语从句,因从句中的主谓宾齐全,先行词为“stands”,用where引导,做从句中的地点状语。

A Beautiful Place in China 
March 19,2021 
By Li Jin 
Having visited Beijing,the capital city of our country,many times,I think it lives up to the reputation as one of the most beautiful cities in China.Now let me introduce this extraordinary city in detail.
As we all know,Beijing is located in the northern part of China.Not only is it the political center of our country,but also the cultural center,with a long and glorious history.Possessing so many places of interest,it attracts thousands of tourists from all over the world at any time.Among them,the one impresses me most is the Great Wall,which is not only a magnificent place of Beijing,but also the precious treasure of the world.What?s more,watching Beijing Opera is a good opportunity to get to know the traditional culture of China directly,and we can also eat some well-known food in Beijing.
Pleased by the trip to Beijing,I think Beijing is one of the most beautiful cities in China,I will never forget this experience.
