Li Ziqi, a vlogger who enjoys a fan base of more than 21 million people on Sina Weibo and 7 million strong followers on YouTube, has made a name for herself in her videos that highlight a traditional Chinese way of life in the rural areas of Sichuan Province. Her videos cover a wide variety of crafts related to traditional Chinese culture. From making paper and ink to weaving cloth, from making a silk quilt comforter for her grandmother to building her own bread kiln with blocks, nothing seems impossible with Li’s crafty hands as they work their magic to bring these things into existence. But Li’s most eye-catching, and mouth-watering craft is cooking.
Li scarcely speaks in her videos. When she does open her mouth, the most common phrase that comes out is her calling her grandmother to come and eat. Instead of dialogue, Li focuses on how she works with her hands. Watching her videos, it is difficult not to appreciate their beauty and hold back that sense of nostalgia (怀旧) and longing for home. But it is even harder not to want to take a bite of her succulent dishes, which really remind viewers of taste of our childhood and home.
Glamorous as her present life may seem, life was difficult for her during her youth as she and her grandparents had little to live on. Li herself revealed that she was “economically supported” to continue schooling. She started to work in the city at 14 and would not have returned to her childhood home if not for her grandmother
- 29 -
falling ill in 2012. After returning home, Li opened an online shop, Li Ziqi, to sell mostly edible products. To boost sales, she began making short films in 2016 about how these products were created, while covering her life in the rural area, all against the backdrop of traditional Chinese aesthetics (审美). “I started it because I wanted to create something for people to watch and relax. We are all under a lot of stress. I hoped that after a long and busy day, they could click on my videos and relieve some of their anxiety and pressure,” Li said.
However, Li is not without criticism, such as remarks about her “beautifying” life in the country and her use of a professional production crew to help her film. Others have expressed skepticism about how “real” her videos are, and how “amazing it is that she looks so picture perfect after a long day of work in the fields.”
4. According to the passage, we can know the following EXCEPT .
A. it was her grandmother‟ falling ill that made her return to her hometown
B. masses of viewers from both home and abroad are hooked by her videos
C. she never opens her mouth in her videos because she has difficulty in speaking
D. many viewers speak highly of her videos while some of them throw doubt on her
5. What words can be best used to describe Li Ziqi?
A. Aggressive and strong-willed. B. Crafty and considerate.
C. Humorous and stubborn. D. Ambitious and severe.
6. From Li Ziqi’s story, we can know that .
A. Many hands make light work B. An idle youth, a needy age
C. Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearful D. God helps those who help themselves
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Young vlogger tells story of China in picturesque videos
B. An Internet celebrity makes delicious dishes
C. Relaxing videos are made with passion
D. The more traditional, the more popular
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A

本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了年轻的博主李子柒利用生动如画的视频讲述中国元素的故事并拥有众多粉丝的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据Li scarcely speaks in her videos. When she does open her mouth, the most common phrase that comes out is her calling her grandmother to come and eat. Instead of dialogue, Li focuses on how she works with her hands. 李在视频中几乎不说话。当她张开嘴说话时,最常见的一句话是她叫她的祖母过来吃饭。李关注的不是对话,而是她如何用手工作。由此可知C选项说李有语言障碍与文章不符,故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。通过第一段的From making paper and ink to weaving cloth, from making a silk quilt comforter for her grandmother to building her own bread kiln with blocks, nothing seems impossible with Li’s crafty hands as they work their magic to bring these things into existence. 从造纸、油墨到织布,从为祖母做蚕丝被子到用积木搭建自己的面包窑,李的巧手似乎没有什么是不可能的,他们施展魔法似的把这些东西变成了现实,由此可以推断出李是灵巧的。再根据第三段后半部分“I started it because I wanted to create something for people to watch and relax. We are all under a lot of stress. I hoped that after a long and busy day, they could click on my videos and relieve some of their anxiety and pressure,” Li said. “我创办它是因为我想创造一些让人们观看和放松的东西。我们都承受着很大的压力。我希望在漫长而忙碌的一天之后,他们可以点击我的视频,缓解他们的焦虑和压力。”李说。可以推断出李是体贴的。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据Li Ziqi, a vlogger who enjoys a fan base of more than 21 million people on Sina Weibo and 7 million strong followers on YouTube.李子柒是一名博主,她在新浪微博上有2100多万粉丝,在YouTube上有700万粉丝。根据From making paper and ink to weaving cloth, from making a silk quilt comforter for her grandmother to building her own bread kiln with blocks, nothing seems impossible with Li’s crafty hands as they work their magic to bring these things into existence. But Li’s most eye-catching, and mouth-watering craft is cooking. Instead of dialogue, Li focuses on how she works with her hands.
- 29 -
从造纸、油墨到织布,从为祖母做蚕丝被子到用积木搭建自己的面包窑,李的巧手似乎没有什么是不可能的,他们施展魔法把这些东西变成了现实。但李最引人注目、最令人垂涎的手艺是烹饪。李关注的不是对话,李关注她如何用手工作。由此可知,李子柒通过自己的努力成为在国内外很受欢迎的博主,由此判断出断 D选项天道酬勤用来描述李子柒更恰当,故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要讲年轻的博主李子柒利用生动如画的视频讲述中国元素的故事并拥有众多粉丝的故事。A选项年轻的博主在风景如画的视频中讲述中国的故事,符合中心思想,概括准确,适合做标题,故选A。
【点睛】推断判断题就是推断隐含意义,根据文章的某个句子、段落或全文所提供的事实进行逻辑推理,推断出作者没有提到、没有明说或者可能发生的事实。推理判断题的题干特点:推断隐含意义的题干中常含infer(推断),suggest(暗示),imply(暗示),indicate(暗示),conclude(推断,得出结论)等词语。常见的题干形式如下: We can know from the passage that; We can infer from the (first/last) passage that ;The passage/author implies/suggests that ;It can be concluded from the passage that ;The underlined sentence indicates that 等等,它的主要解题方法 就是找到推理的依据,然后理解相关信息点的字面意义,最后结合语境和常识,在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的推断,从而得到作者的言外之意。如小题3就是明显的推理判断题,据全文,李子柒通过自己的努力成为在国内外很受欢迎的博主, D选项天道酬勤(天助自助者)符合文章主题思想,故选D。

The Cosmic Crisp—a new super-sweet variety of apple that can reportedly last longer than a year in the refrigerator—is expected to hit grocery stores in the US this week.
The Cosmic Crisp’s release comes after two decades of development and some three years of planting apple trees. Washington state farmers have exclusive growing rights for one decade, according to local media KIMA. The apple, developed by Washington State University‟s fruit tree breeding program and first cultivated in 1997, is said to have a “remarkably firm and crisp texture” and be surprisingly sweet, making it an excellent eating apple, according to its website.
The fruit, a cross between the Enterprise and Honeycrisp apple varieties, was
- 29 -
bred to feature “naturally higher levels of acidity and sugar”, so much so that one can use less sugar while baking, researchers claim. They also say that it‟s “naturally slow to brown when cut and maintains its texture and flavor in storage for more than a year.”
Its name stems from the tiny bright dots on the apple‟s otherwise darker red skin. Tasters said the flecks reminded them of “outer space and the cosmos,” Cosmic Crisp‟s website noted. Just over 450,000 40lb boxes of the cosmic Crisp crop were expected to be shipped to retailers across the US on Sunday, according to the Spokane-based Spokesman-Review.
The producers hope the shipments will grow to 2.1m boxes in 2020. For those who can‟t wait for their local grocery store to stock them, four apples were retailing for $39 online over the weekend.
The initial 600,000 Cosmic Crisp trees were sold to farmers in 2017, researchers reportedly said. Since then, more than 10m Cosmic Crisp trees were planted, Kate Evans, who heads the university‟s Pome Fruit Breeding Program, told the Spokesman-Review.
8. How long can the new apples last?
A. They can last shorter than three years. B. They can last longer than a year.
C. They can last a year. D. They can last one decade.
9. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The features of the Cosmic Crisp. B. The way of planting the Cosmic Crisp.
C. The cost of planting the Cosmic Crisp. D. The shape of the Cosmic Crisp.
10. What does the underlined word “flecks” mean?
A. Flavour. B. Red skin.
C. The tiny bright dots. D. Stars.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards this Cosmic Crisp?
A. Pessimistic. B. Disapproving.
C. Subjective. D. Objective.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D

本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍一种新型的超甜苹果“宇宙脆(Cosmic Crisp)”。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段The Cosmic Crisp—a new super-sweet variety of apple that can reportedly last longer than a year in the refrigerator—is expected to hit grocery stores in the US this week. 宇宙脆— 一种新型的超级甜苹果在冰箱里可以保存一年以上,这种超级甜苹果将于本周在美国的杂货店上市。由此可知这种苹果可以保存一年以上,故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段The fruit, a cross between the Enterprise and Honeycrisp apple varieties, was bred to feature “naturally higher levels of acidity and sugar”, so much so that one can use less sugar while baking, researchers claim. They also say that it‟s “naturally slow to brown when cut and maintains its texture and flavor in storage for more than a year.”研究人员称,这种苹果是苹果企业品种和蜜酥苹果品种的杂交品种,其特点是“自然酸度和糖分较高”,因此人们在烘焙时可以少用糖分。他们还说,它“切割时自然会变褐,并在一年多的贮藏中保持其质地和风味。所以第三段主要是关于这种苹果的特点,故选A。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。从第四段的第一句话Its name stems from the tiny bright dots on the apple’s otherwise darker red skin. 它的名字来源于苹果暗红色表皮上的小亮点。而下文说the flecks让品尝者想到了外太空和宇宙,由此推断flecks就是指这些小亮点,故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。全文都在客观地介绍“宇宙脆(Cosmic Crisp)”这种新型的超甜苹果,包括苹果的特点,保存时间等等。所以判断出作者对于Cosmic Crisp的态度是客观的。故选D。
D
Many mental health professionals viewed the pursuit of happiness as a foolish mistake until quite recently. Most of them used to concentrate their energy and attention on individuals suffering from diseases like depression and anxiety, or on relieving despair rather than promoting well-being. But that’s all beginning to change. Supporters of “positive psychology” think that happiness is a goal that people can—and should—work toward. They believe that it’s not only possible but
- 29 -
crucially important. Health means not just the absence of disease but a positive sense of involvement and engagement in life. Unless you know how to enjoy life, your life is not really happy. This doesn’t mean that finding happiness is easy—a variety of obstacles stands in the way. The first, perhaps the biggest, is genetics.
Happiness, it seems, is decided—at least in part—by personality features that are largely passed on from their parents. In a study published in 2018, researchers at the University of Edinburgh examined personality and happiness data on more than 900 pairs of twins. They found a close genetic relationship between happiness and positive personalities such as openness and agreeableness. Identical twins (同卵双胞胎) were more likely to share these positive features than non-identical twins; they were also more likely to report similar levels of well-being.
Major life events as well as social and economic factors can also stand in the way of happiness. More often than not, however, people get in their own way by looking for happiness in all the wrong places. They aren’t particularly good at recognizing what will bring them lasting joy: Although money tops many people’s wish lists, study after study has found that once basic needs are met, additional wealth doesn’t add much to people’s sense of well-being and contentment.
Experts in the field of positive psychology still believe it’s possible for people to push their happiness upward—not just temporarily but over the long term.
12. What’s the shift in mental health study?
A. Health means the absence of disease.
B. Emphasis is placed on the pursuit of happiness.
C. Well-being is found to be something one was born with.
D. More attention is paid to anxiety and depression.
13. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Different obstacles are in the way of finding happiness.
B. Happiness is largely dictated by one’s personality.
C. Identical twins are more likely to be on the same level of well-being than non-identical twins.
D. Wealth always plays an important role in people’s sense of happiness and
- 29 -
contentment.
14. The obstacles standing in the way of happiness include all of the following elements EXCEPT .
A. emotive factors B. genetics
C. social factors D. economic factors
15. According to the experts of positive psychology, what’s the essential point of the pursuit of happiness?
A. Material prosperity. B. Freedom.
C. Long-term efforts. D. The avoidance of stress.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述心理健康研究的转变,重点要放在追求幸福上并且指出追求幸福的多种障碍。追求幸福的本质要靠长期的努力。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Many mental health professionals viewed the pursuit of happiness as a foolish mistake…But that’s all beginning to change. Supporters of “positive psychology” think that happiness is a goal that people can—and should—work toward. They believe that it’s not only possible but crucially important.直到最近,许多心理健康专家还认为追求幸福是一个愚蠢的错误。他们大多把精力和注意力集中在患有抑郁和焦虑等疾病的人身上,或者用来缓解绝望,而不是增进福祉。但这一切都开始改变了。“积极心理学”的支持者认为,幸福是一个人们可以而且应该为之努力的目标。他们相信这不仅是可能的,而且至关重要。由此可以看出心理健康研究要转移重点到追求幸福上,故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Although money tops many people’s wish lists, study after study has found that once basic needs are met, additional wealth doesn’t add much to people’s sense of well-being and contentment. 虽然金钱是许多人的头号愿望,但一项又一项的研究发现,一旦基本需求得到满足,再多的财富也不会给人们带来多大的幸福感和满足感。由此可知D选项说财富在人们的幸福感和满足感中始终起着重要的作用,不符合文章的表述,故选D。
【14题详解】
- 29 -
细节理解题。根据文章This doesn’t mean that finding happiness is easy—a variety of obstacles stands in the way. The first, perhaps the biggest, is genetics. 这并不意味着寻找幸福是容易的——有各种各样的障碍挡在路上。第一个,也许是最大的,是基因。 Major life events as well as social and economic factors can also stand in the way of happiness. 生活中的重大事件以及社会和经济因素也会阻碍幸福。从第三段的第一句话可以得知答案。由此可知,寻找幸福的阻碍不包括情绪因素,故选A。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段Experts in the field of positive psychology still believe it’s possible for people to push their happiness upward—not just temporarily but over the long term. 积极心理学领域的专家仍然相信,人们有可能提升自己的幸福感——努力不仅仅是暂时的,而是长期的。
由此可知追求幸福的本质要靠长期的努力。故选C。

本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了杭州用创新的可持续的生活方式来庆祝世界环境日。
【41题详解】
考查时态。句意:在过去的十年里,杭州政府改善了有助于骑自行车的基础设施,比如为骑自行车的人创造的车道和交通信号灯,并提供了近8.6万辆公共自行车。分析句子可知,空中缺少谓语,根据时间状语over the past decade表示在过去的十年,所以后面用完成时,这里可以表示目前的结果,也可以表示还将继续进行下去的动作,因此可以用现在完成时也可以用现在完成进行时,故填has improved/been improving。
【42题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:同上。空中的词修饰lanes and traffic signals作后置定语, 并同它修饰的词之间为被动关系,应用过去分词, 故填created。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:在杭州,一张智能卡可以让用户方便地使用从自行车到公交车的各种公共交通工具。空中的词修饰动词access,应用副词形式, 故填easily。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:同上。根据句意,可知这里为固定搭配from…to…,故填from。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:除了引领中国自行车运动的复兴,杭州也有一种创新的方式来鼓励更可持续的生活方式,通过一款应用来帮助阻止沙漠化,减少空气污染,种植数百万棵新树。空中的词修饰名词lifestyles,应用形容词形式, 故填sustainable。
【46题详解】
考查定语从句的引导词。句意:同上。分析句子可知,___6___is helping to stop desertification…为定语从句。定语从句修饰先行词app在从句中作主语,所以关系代词为that/which。故填that/which。
【47题详解】
考查名词。句意:来自中国支付和生活应用支付宝的杭州“蚂蚁森林”项目,鼓励用户在日常生活中做出小的、环保的决定,比如骑自行车而不是开车去上班,或者回收衣服再利用。根据句意可知为固定词组make decisions做决定,故填decisions。
【48题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:同上。根据句意可知这里为固定搭配rather than而不是,故填than。
【49题详解】
- 29 -
考查动词时态和语态。句意:如果用户进行任何减少碳排放的活动,他们将被奖励“绿色能源”积分。本句为if引导条件状语从句,主句用将来时,主语和谓语之间为被动关系,所以应用一般将来时的被动语态,故填will be rewarded。
【50题详解】
考查冠词。句意:如果他们积累了足够的虚拟点,就会种上一棵真树。空中的词修饰tree,为可数名词单数,意为“一棵真树”且real首字母的发音为辅音音素,故填a。
【点睛】定语从句中关系词的选择可考虑以下三点:
(1) 一看先行词的意义,即分清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点还是原因(如指物时不能用who或whom,指人时通常不用which等。
(2) 二看关系词的句法功能,即分清关系词是担任什么句子成分,是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等(如作定语通常用whose,有时也用which;作状语要用when, where, why。
(3) 三看定语从句的种类,即分清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句(如that和why通常不引导非限制性定语从句。
分析句子可知,___6___is helping to stop desertification…为定语从句。定语从句修饰先行词app在从句中作主语,所以关系代词为that/which。故填that/which。
