(seem) only logical to build the new bridge with iron. In 1773, architect Thomas Farnolls Pritchard put forward a single-arch(单拱) bridge that would span the Severn Gorge.

Ⅱ. 阅读理解 Passage 1 [2020·原创] When my 4-year-old daughter discovered the documentary(纪录片)Blue Planet Ⅱ, thanks to a relative who shares her love of marine(海洋) life, I was shocked that she wanted to watch it instead of cartoons like The Octonauts and Llama Llama. I thought it as a parenting victory: My preschooler liked science and exploration. When things got real and one sea creature ate another, I explained that it was an example of the food chain. She showed a look of satisfaction—the kind that comes with feeling like you understand the world a little better. 2 Then we arrived at the episode about coral reefs(珊瑚礁) dying off because of climate change. My daughter had a lot of questions, and I looked at footage(镜头) of the desiccated reefs, thinking about what those images meant for her future. Suddenly I regretted letting Blue Planet Ⅱ into our lives so easily. Though my husband and I spent a lot of time outdoors, encouraging our daughter's interest in science, nature, and protection, we never discussed climate change before this. We avoided the topic, I think, because of her young age and the endangered(濒危的) animals on the Earth. How do you tell a 4-year-old the plants, animals, and landscapes she adores are in great danger? After a long time, it turns out, however, there are plenty of ways to talk about what's happening to the Earth in an age-appropriate way that doesn't needlessly frighten a child. The key is to make sure that you've laid a foundation for children to appreciate and be curious about the natural world, that you're able to discuss basic scientific concepts, and that conversations with children about climate change focus on critical thinking skills and solutions. 1.The writer's daughter wants to watch . ( ) A.cartoons B.Blue Planet Ⅱ C.The Octonauts D.Llama Llama 2.When watching the desiccated coral reefs, the writer felt .

C.It focuses on critical thinking skills and solutions. D.It involves many explanations. 4.What's the purpose of the passage? ( ) A.To show the parenting victory. B.To explain the footage. C.To tell us a documentary Blue Planet II. D.To introduce the age-appropriate ways. Passage 2 You may have heard of the Grinch who once stole Christmas. You may have read the popular book 3 How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss. Or you may have seen the movie. Until now, there are two of them. A third, The Grinch is new this month. The Grinch is a green, furry creature who lives on a mountain above the small village of Who-ville. Who-ville is the place where the Whos live. The Whos are happy people, and that makes the Grinch angry. It especially makes him the most angry at Christmastime. The Grinch has an idea. He will take his sled down to Who-ville and he will steal Christmas! His dog Max will help to pull the sled. The Grinch is a beautiful movie and the music is also excellent. The movie is quite similar to the book. The art of the movie has the feel of Dr. Seuss' drawings. The movie added some backstories to the characters to show what happened to them in the past. It helps us see why they are the way they are. We learn that the Grinch is an orphan(孤儿). When he was a child, he felt the Whos didn't like him. He has been angry all his life. Christmas is the worst time. That's why he feels so angry when he sees the Whos enjoying Christmas. He wants them to feel how he feels. Miss Cindy Lou Who has a Christmas wish. She needs to talk to Father Christmas about it. Her mom works very hard all day and all night to take care of her and her twin brothers.She wants her mom to have a rest. The Grinch is about finding the true spirit of the holiday in community. It is about learning to let go of old hurts and reaching out to neighbors. It is about love and kindness winning out over everything else. The Grinch is beautiful to see. The parts that were added to fill out the story are entertaining. However, the best parts are those that stick to the original story. After all, you can't stop what Dr. Seuss wrote. The Grinch realizes Christmas can't be stolen, because it isn't a thing. You can't steal the spirit of the holiday. That's always going to be a good reminder for us. 5.Where does the Grinch live? ( ) A.In a village. B.On a mountain. C.In a Christmas tree. D.In a street. 6.According to The Grinch, which of the following is NOT true? ( ) A.The Grinch decided to steal Christmas because he wanted the Whos to be angry. B.Miss Cindy Lou Who's wish is that she wants her mom to have a rest on Christmas. C.The Grinch had an unhappy life when he was a child. D.The Whos won't have a happy Christmas. 7.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to . ( ) 4 A.the spirit of the holiday B.Christmas C.the Grinch D.love and kindness 8.What type is the passage? ( ) A.A movie poster. B.A movie review. C.A movie instruction. D.A movie advertisement. Ⅲ. 任务型阅读 下面文章中共有 5 处(第 1—5 题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E 和 F)中选出符合各段 意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。 Here are five rules that helped me develop good habits. 1. I didn't choose habits I thought I should add because of what anyone else was doing. It wasn't about keeping up with other people. It was about listening to myself. 2. When I started to build up an exercise routine(习惯), I only went when I wanted to go. For me, that was around 2 p.m every day. It also meant that I would do whatever I wanted to do once I got there. If I wanted to do 20 minutes on the bike, I'd do only 20 minutes and then leave. 3. I knew that if I tried to take on too much, I'd find a way to make an excuse. So my daily purposes were very small. I started with two minutes of exercise, which were finally built up to 10, then 20 minutes. I realized that just doing something, no matter how small, meant I was more likely to do it again the next day. 4. If I missed a day, I let it go. When I got a cold and missed several days of exercise, I didn't beat myself up. Instead of punishing myself, I tried to love myself—and that had a more enjoyable and lasting effect. 5. When I began keeping a diary every morning, I put a number in the corner of each page to show how many diaries I had written. I celebrated my pen running out of ink.Finally, after I filled up a notebook, I celebrated buying a new notebook. 5 A.Start small B.Be kind to yourself C.Pick habits you honestly want to have D.Build your habit your own way E.Celebrate every small victory F.The way to have a better effect 6 【参考答案】 Ⅰ.1.an 2.busiest 3.to 4.city 5.seemed 6.However 7.was built 8.to complete 9.parts 10.finally Ⅱ.Passage 1 [主旨大意]本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了用合适的方法解释大自然现象的故事。4 岁女儿选 择看纪录片《蓝色星球Ⅱ》,不看动画片,“我”很惊喜,但是看到干枯的珊瑚礁的时候,“我”又后悔让女儿 看这部纪录片。因为“我”不知如何向女儿解释这些现象,同时又怕吓到她。过了一段时间,“我”探索到了 一些方法。 1.B 细节理解题。根据第一段可知女儿想看《蓝色星球Ⅱ》。故 B 项正确。 2.C 判断推理题。根据第三段中的“…I looked at footage of the desiccated reefs, thinking about what those images meant for her future.
