【点睛】本题考查就远原则
就远原则即谓语动词的形式要和离它最远的主语保持一致,常见的适用救援原则的词或短语有:with, together with, along with, as well as, besides, except, rather than等,例如:

9.Chinn’s second aircraft carrier, _________construction took more than six years, entered service at the end of 2019.
A. whose B. which C. where D. that
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:中国第二艘航母建造历时6年多,于2019年底投入使用。分析句子可知此处为所填空引导的非限制性定语从句,Chinn’s second aircraft carrier(中国第二艘航母)是先行词,construction和Chinn’s second aircraft carrier是所属关系,故用 whose 作定语,相当于the construction of Chinn’s second aircraft carrier,故填 whose。故选A项。

【点睛】非谓语动词是指在句子中不是谓语的动词。主要包括不定式、动名词和分词(现在分词和过去分词),即动词的非谓语形式。非谓语动词除了不能独立作谓语外,可以承担句子的其他成分。

C. Organised D. To organise
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:已经成功地组织了一些活动,Jackson对他自己变得更自信,并决定当一个主持人。分析句子可知,此处应用非谓语动词作状语,逻辑主语Jackson和organize之间是主动关系,且该动作发生在谓语动作“变”之前,应用现在分词的完成式having done,故选B项。
15.In addition to filling stomachs of his family, he _________himself to improving the quality of the homeless people’s life for years,

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选顶。
A
A polished resume is essential for a successful school or job application. A clear structure and well organized content can be the difference between success and failure.
Structuring your resume
(1) Create a header with your name and contact information. At the top of the page、type your full name, address, phone number and email address. There are also down loadable templates(模板)available online. If none of them appeals to you. however, you can always use your own design,
(2) Use a chronological(时间顺序排列的)resume. In a chronological resume, you list your work and education experiences, starting with your most recent experience.
(3) Include your relevant education, awards or training. Typically, your highest academic qualification is the only one you need to include on your resume. However, you can add lesser achievements if they are relevant to a job's requirements.
If you had a cumulative(累积的)GPA of 3.5 or higher, feel free to include it. Otherwise, it would be best to leave it out. If you’re listing more than one degree, include your GPA on both of them, if possible.
(4) List work experience, including relevant volunteer work and internships. Use specific job titles and short explanations that tell potential employers exactly what you did, what skills you gained and how they could be useful in a new job.
(5) Try a functional resume, if you lack direct work experience. With a functional resume you can highlight your specific skills and resources without having to list previous jobs. A functional resume emphasizes what you can do rather than what you've done.
Making your content shine
(1) Place keywords in your resume strategically. Schools or employers often use software to scan resumes for specific keywords.
(2) Add hobbies and interests, if they relate to the job. A section for hobbies and interests is usually considered optional. However, you should include only hobbies or interests that would benefit an employer. For example, if the job requires good teamwork, you can say that you were captain of your high school basketball team.
(3) Proofread before sending your resume. Don't only rely on the grammar and spelling checkers built into your word processing app. Read through your resume several times to make sure it's error-free.
(4) Save your resume as a PDF file. Most schools and employers prefer to use PDFS for online safety reasons. So don't forget to convert your document before you send it.
36. How should you present your job and education experiences on a resume?
A. Begin with your most successful experience.
B. Start with your most recent experience.
C. Include as many details as possible.
D. Only introduce your highest degree.
37. When should you leave your GPA out of your resume?
A. If your total GPA was below 3.5.
B. If your cumulative GPA was below 4.0.
C. If you're listing more than one degree.
D. If you are still a student.
38. What should you do if you don't have much work experience according to the text?
A. List every job you've done before.
B. Talk about how much you know about the job.
C. Focus on your abilities and skills related to the job.
D. Share what you've learned from your previous work.
39. How can you make your resume noticeable according to the text?
A. Use a catchy template.
B. Send your resume in a DOC file.
C. Mention a hobby that you are good at.
D. Highlight some keywords in your resume.
40. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. The recipe of resume success.
B. How to structure your resume.
C. The ways to shine the content of your resume.
D. The contact information in the resume.
【答案】36. B 37. A 38. C 39. D 40. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。一份经过润色的简历是成功申请学校或工作的必要条件。一个清晰的结构和组织良好的内容是成功和失败的区别。本文介绍如何构建你的简历。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据(2) Use a chronological(时间顺序排列的)resume. In a chronological resume, you list your work and education experiences, starting with your most recent experience.“使用时间顺序简历。在时序简历中,你列出你的工作和教育经历,从最近的经历开始。”由此可知,从你最近的经历开始在简历中展示你的工作和教育经历。故选B。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据If you had a cumulative(累积的)GPA of 3.5 or higher, feel free to include it. Otherwise, it would be best to leave it out. If you’re listing more than one degree, include your GPA on both of them, if possible.“如果你的累计GPA达到3.5或更高,可以把它算进去。否则,最好不要使用它。如果你列出了不止一个学位,如果可能的话,写上你在这两个学位上的
GPA。”由此判断出,如果你的总平均绩点低于3.5,你应该把你的平均绩点从你的简历中删掉。故选A。
【38题详解】
推理判断题。根据(4) List work experience, including relevant volunteer work and internships. Use specific job titles and short explanations that tell potential employers exactly what you did, what skills you gained and how they could be useful in a new job.“列出工作经历,包括相关的志愿者工作和实习经历。使用具体的职位头衔和简短的解释,告诉潜在的雇主你做过什么,你获得了什么技能,以及这些技能在新工作中如何有用。”由此判断出,如果你没有多少工作经验,要专注于你与工作相关的能力和技能。故选C。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据(1) Place keywords in your resume strategically. Schools or employers often use software to scan resumes for specific keywords.“有策略地在简历中放置关键词。学校或雇主经常使用软件来扫描简历,寻找特定的关键词。”由此可知,在简历中突出一些关键词可以使你的简历引人注目。故选D。
【40题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段A polished resume is essential for a successful school or job application. A clear structure and well organized content can be the difference between success and failure.“一份经过润色的简历是成功申请学校或工作的必要条件。一个清晰的结构和组织良好的内容是成功和失败的区别。”和Structuring your resume“构建你的简历”。Making your content shine“让你简历的内容有闪光点”,所以本文介绍了个人简历成功的秘诀。故选A。
B
When Lina was awoken by the sound of thunder, she was alone on the island. The air was cool and bullfrogs croaked. It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadn't yet appeared. Lina rubbed her eyes and looked around. "Hello?" she called. "Celia? Marie?" There was no response.
The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always called it "Forgotten Island" because no one but they seemed to remember its existence. It wasn't on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest rangers didn't know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side stream of the l river, was a secret between the three friends—her, Celia, and Marie. But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault.
"Come on, Lina, let Marie row the born." Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a hopeless rower. That's why Linn refused and rowed the boat to the island.
The argument that followed the refusal took the usual form. Celia took Marie's side, as she always did. Lina exploded and yelled at them to just leave. So they got back in the boat and left.
A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap. The storm was here. As the first cold raindrop slid down her neck, Lina's mind returned to her current problem. She was stuck here by herself. She just hoped she didn't become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill down her back.
Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water. It was a boat, and inside it were Marie, Celia, and Marie's dad, who was steering through the fast flowing waters. As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried expressions on their faces turned to relief
In her excitement Lina jumped into the river. Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the water was moving. Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Marie's dad and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie. They didn't seem to mind becoming wet.
41. What do we know about the island?
A. It is very near the ocean.
B. It is a popular place for boating.
C. It is surrounded by thick forest.
D. It has never been reached by others.
42. Why did Lina get angry?
A. Lina was left alone on the island.
B. Marie would not help row the boat.
C. Marie didn't know how to row the boat.
D. Celia supported Marie in the disagreement.
43. What caused Lina to feel scared?
A. Her shame about the unnecessary argument,
B. The first raindrop of the approaching storm.
C. The idea that no one would come to save her.
D. The drop in temperature as the sun went down.
44. Which is true statement according to the passage?
A. Lina didn't want to forget the island.
B. When Lina saw the boat, she fell relieved.
C. Marie rescued Lina when she fell into the water.
D. Marie was poor in rowing.
45. What can we infer about the three girls?
A. All of them could swim well.
B They had an adventurous spirit.
C. They lived far away from the island.
D. They quarreled with one another badly.
【答案】41. C 42. D 43. C 44. D 45. B
【解析】
本文是一简记叙文,三个女孩儿一同去一座无人的小岛上,因为让谁划船产生了分歧,其中一个女孩Lina生气离开了队友独自留在了岛上,最后被朋友以及朋友的父亲营教了的故事。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的"Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side steam of the river was a secret between the three friends -her Celia, and Marie.可知小鸟隐藏在一条树木繁茂的河边,故可知小岛是被浓密的森林包围着,选项C符合题意。故选C项。
【42题详解】

For years, the U.S. has experienced a shortage of registered nurses. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that while the number of nurses will increase by 19 percent by 2022, demand will grow faster than supply, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs by then.
So what's the solution? Robots,
Japan is ahead of the curve when it comes to this trend. Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio, a robotic medical cart that can make hospital rounds, deliver medications and oilier items, and retrieve(检索)records. It follows a specific individual, such as a doctor or nurse, who can use it to record and access patient data. This type of robot will likely be one of the first to be put into use in hospitals because it has fairly minimal patient contact.
Robots capable of social engagement help with loneliness as well as cognitive(认知的) functioning, but the robot itself doesn't have to engage directly——it can serve as an intermediary for human communication. Telepresence robots such as MantaroBot, Vgo, and Giraff can be controlled through a computer, smartphone, or tablet, allowing family members or doctors to remotely monitor patients or Skype them, often via a screen where the robot's "face" would be. If you can't get to the nursing home to visit grandma, you can use a telepresence robot to hang out with her. A 2016 study found that users had a ''consistently positive attitude" about the Giraff robot's ability to enhance communication and decrease feelings of loneliness.
A robot’s appearance affects its ability to successfully interact with humans, which is why the RIKEN-TRI Collaboration Center for Human-Interactive Robot Research decided to develop a robotic nurse that looks a huge teddy bear. RIBA (Robot for Interactive Body Assistance), also known as "Robear" can help patients into and out of wheelchairs and beds with its strong arms. On the less cute and more scary side there is Actroid F, which is so human-like that some patients may not know the difference. This conversational robot companion has cameras in its eyes, which allow it to track patients and use appropriate facial expressions and body language in its interactions.
During a month-long hospital trial, researchers asked 70 patients how they felt being around the robot and "only three or four said they didn't like having it around."
Il's important to note that robotic nurses don't decide courses of treatment or make diagnoses ( though robot doctors and surgeons may not be far off). Instead, they perform routine and laborious tusks, freeing nurses up to attend to patients with immediate needs. This is one industry where it seems the interaction of robots will lend to collaboration, not replacement

What is it about kids these days that makes older generations so easily angry? In some way or another, older generations have been disappointed at the youth's decline since the earliest days of civilization. Even Aristotle talked smack about how young folks thought they knew everything back in the 4th century BC.
So why do people throw all the shade on the next generation? A study out last month in Science Advances shows that negative opinions about kids aren't always based on their actions; it's more about how adults praise their past and current selves.
In the study, researchers looked at a trio of characteristics in three groups of US adults: respect for elders or authoritarianism(权威主义),intelligence, and enjoyment of reading. The team, led by John Protzko, a cognitive scientist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, asked the participants whether they thought kids in the modern age shared the same qualities. They found that adults who tested especially strong in one of the categories tended to see children today as weak in il. For example, if an adult got tagged or self-identified as intelligent, they were more likely to see "kids these days" as less intelligent than they used to be. This, Protzko thinks, is because they remembered their younger selves to be smarter, whether true or not. What's more, they only reserved their strong opinion for characteristics they related to.
In another stage of the study, the authors assigned random scores to participants to trick them into thinking how well-read they were. Many of the adults changed their opinions on kid's reading ability as a result, Protzko speculates that there are two reasons for the shift: How memories can go wrong and the lack of objective knowledge of what childhood is really like. "People who are
high in a trail arc imposing(迫使)their current high standing in that trait back in time, thinking 'Oh this must have been what all kids were like,' " he says. Over the years, the same memory bias(偏见)keeps occurring, making it seem like kids arc somehow failing more and more. In fact, (he older a participant was, the more heavily this bias came into play, Protzko says.
While there's still a lot to learn about why adults might see younger generations as mediocre, this research can hint that an age-old phrase can boil down to one classic human trail:vanity(自负).

Just like everyone, I have experienced ups and downs in my life. I am an aerospace engineer from India, I was told by my relatives, close friends and others that it was hard for a non-IT student to pursue a master's degree in IT and graduate from a US university.
I had never taken courses related to computers or programming. I was never interested in being a programmer, but things changed. I became so fascinated with the convenience IT has brought to our life that I made up my mind in chasing a master's degree in IT.
At first, I came across too many difficulties and setbacks. Coming from a middle-class family, the huge cost per credit was a big issue. My English accent was terrible. Most importantly, the course seemed impossible at first. Although I felt so discouraged and frustrated, I never thought of giving up.
Then I decided to choose my university because it promised its students to help them learn practically. During my first month, it was difficult to understand the Americans' accent and finish my assignments. But I never gave in. I walked two miles to the university every day so that I could use my travel money to buy a meal. I started looking for jobs and I got an offer to work as a student assistant, which meant lifting benches and chairs every day.
I took all these challenges as my chances and I believed that hard work was my strength. Right
now I am graduating with a GPA of 3.96/4 and a job offer from a multinational company that has asked me to start right after graduation.
