I never knew anyone who’d grown up in Jackson without being afraid of Mrs. Calloway, our librarian. She ran Jackson’s Carnegie Library absolutely by herself. SILENCE in big black letters was on signs hung everywhere. If she thought you were dressed improperly, she sent you straight back home to change your clothes. I was willing; I would do anything to read.
My mother was not afraid of Mrs. Calloway. She wished me to have my own library card to check out books for myself. She took me in to introduce me. “Eudora is nine years old and has my permission to read any book she wants from the shelves, children or adults,” Mother said.
Mrs. Calloway made her own rules about books. You could not take back a book to the library on the same day you’d taken it out; it made no difference to her that you’d read every word in it and needed another to start. You could take out two books at a time and two only. So two by two, I read library books as fast as I could go, rushing them home in the basket of my bicycle. From the minute I reached our house, I started to read. I knew this was extreme happiness, knew it at the time.
My mother shared this feeling of mine. Now, I think of her as reading so much of the time while doing something else. I remember her reading a magazine while taking
the part of the Wolf in a game of “Little Red Riding Hood” with my brother’s two daughters. She’d just look up at the right time, long enough to answer—in character —“The better to eat you with, my dear,” and go back to her place in the magazine article.
21. Which of the following best describes Mrs. Calloway?
A. Quiet. B. Considerate. C. Boring. D. Strict.
22. What do the underlined words “this feeling” refer to in the last paragraph?
A. Interest in games. B. Love for Mrs. Calloway.
C. Desire to read. D. Fear of the library rules.
23. Where is the text probably from?
A. A guidebook. B. An autobiography.
C. A news report. D. A book review.

On 23 June 2016, UK(United Kingdom) adults made a historic decision. More than 33 million people voted for the UK to leave the European Union (EU). In the referendum, the result was that around 52% of them—just over half—voted to leave the group of 28 countries. This is called Brexit made up to describe the "British Exit". No country had ever left the EU before, so Brexit was a significant moment in European history.
After UK and EU leaders had lots of hard negotiations about how Brexit would work, on 22nd, January, 2020, Wednesday, the British Parliament finally approved an agreement about the UK's divorcing the EU, which Queen Elizabeth II agreed to on Thursday. The deal was expected to pass in the European Parliament the next week. If everything went well, the UK would leave the EU on January 31, 2020. It did! The UK finally and officially left the EU at 11 pm on this day, ending a process that began three and a half years before. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Brexit fans celebrated with fireworks and big parties. For many they called it the UK's Independence Day. For many others in the UK, it represented the final stage of something they fought hard to prevent. Now the deal has been signed and Britain has left, but it doesn't mean the life in
Britain will change suddenly. Until 31st December 2020, freedom of movement will continue and this means UK citizens will have the right to live and work in the EU.
Making things even more difficult is the fact that the next challenge of Brexit has arrived. The UK and EU now have almost one year to work out the details of the relationship they will have in the future. Many experts express their common concern that making these new agreements will go through the same experience as the original Brexit deal.
21. What does the underlined word "referendum" in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Explanation. B. Vote. C. Deal. D. Statement.
22. What day was it when the UK left the EU officially?
A. Tuesday. B. Wednesday. C. Thursday. D. Friday.
23. What can we say about Brexit?
A. It was an extremely tough process.
B. It is a great victory for all UK people.
C. It means a temporary loss for the EU.
D. It brings UK people a new life overnight.
24. What is the experts' attitude towards Brexit's next work?
A. Ambiguous. B. Worried. C. Confident. D. Cautious.
D
Grab an ice cube from the freezer and place it on a table. Watch closely enough and you will see, well, not much at all. The ice cube is absorbing heat, but it is still an ice cube. Before it melts, it will draw heat from the environment to change from solid to liquid. Only then will it begin to slip and slide in a puddle(水坑) of its own making.
And so to A Word Without Ice by Henry Pollack, retired professor of geophysics at the University of Michigan and a member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that shared the 2007 Nobel peace prize with Al Gore.
The book gets off to a slow start. You may have to work a little before being rewarded. But given time, Pollack's account warms up and really takes off. The story he has to tell is fascinating, frightening and important.
Despite the title, this is not a book about the world without ice. Much is given over to the impact of ice in Earth's long history, as an important force that shaped our planet's landscape, controlled migrations and influenced cultures. Pollack takes us through Antarctic and Arctic explorations, the natural cycles that bring us ice ages and milder periods without extremes of heat or cold, and the rise of climate science which, among other achievements, can recreate a history of the temperature on Earth from kilometers of ice core drilled from the polar caps.
Pollack’s intellectual power and clarity of phrase are invaluable in describing the scientific evidence for global warming, the ways in which it will affect the world, and the all-too-probable consequences. Pollack is not one to brush awkward issues under the carpet. There is serious discussion about uncertainties in climate science, and in particular, the computer models used to forecast future warming. For its forensic analysis (取证分析) and strong destruction of climate sceptic (怀疑论者) arguments alone, A World Without Ice is worth keeping on a nearby shelf.
Some readers may find Pollack's US-centric approach occasionally grating (刺耳的). He tells of intense irrigation in southwestern Kansas, IPCC reports as big as several New York City phone directories and school-day stories from Omaha. But this is forgivable. The US is uniquely placed to act on climate change but faces a significant barrier in the shape of the outdated, influential, oil-funded anti-climate change lobby (游说议员的团体).
Thoughtful throughout, Pollack occasionally delivers paragraphs that stay with you long after closing the book. On the subject of the book itself, he writes: "Nature's best thermometer (温度计), perhaps its most sensitive and unambiguous indicator of climate change, is ice. When ice gets sufficient warm, it melts. Ice asks no questions, presents no arguments, reads no newspapers, listens to no debates. It is not burdened by ideology and carries no political baggage as it crosses the threshold (门槛) from solid to liquid. It just melts."
A World Without Ice is a call to arms. Debates about which mitigation (减缓) strategies might give us the best chances of reducing our emissions miss the point, Pollack says. If we want to avoid the worst that climate change may bring, we need
"every hose in the stable pulling together and as hard and as fast a possible".
Pollack's argument is attractive, persuasive and deeply upsetting, no matter the climate change tiredness that unavoidably sets in as a consequence of endless media coverage of global warming. The author's final warning comes from Lao Tzu, an ancient Chinese philosopher: “If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.
Pollack leaves us in no doubt as to where that is.
21. We can learn that A World Without Ice .
A. brings us to the core of the issue at the very beginning
B. convinces skeptics of the truth about climate change
C. gives an in- depth analysis of global warming
D. gets funded by anti -climate change lobby
22. Why does Henry Pollack think ice is nature's best thermometer?
A. Ice is a reminder of peaceful co- existence.
B. Ice is a common topic of the media coverage.
C. Ice is a controversial issue in political debates.
D. Ice is a clear indicator sensitive to climate change.
23. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 8 probably means the book .
A. urges us to make joint efforts to fight climate change
B. advocates addressing climate change by armed forces
C. recommends debating on strategies to reduce emission
D. calls for separate and tough actions in a timely manner
24. What does the underlined word “that" in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Warning from Lao Tzu. B. Destination of a journey.
C. Effect of global warming. D. Argument on climate change.
25. What's the author's attitude toward A World Without Ice?
A. Ambiguous. B. Positive. C. Cautious. D. Sceptical.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Let’s take a minute to think about the water we use. The human body is 60% water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with clean water.
36 For example, farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.
The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want, but this is not the case for many people around the world. 37 That’s around one in 10 people in the world. If we drink dirty water, we can catch diseases from the bacteria and become ill. Every year over 500,000 children die from diarrhoea (腹泻) from dirty water. That’s around 1,400 children every day! Also, in some countries children walk many kilometers every day to get water. 38 Therefore, they don’t have time to learn how to read or write and don’t get an education.
39 On this day every year, countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around the world. At one school in the UK, children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6km with six liters of water. 40 People give them money to do this and all the money helps get clean water to as many people as possible around the world.
A. We use water indirectly too.
B. Every system in our body depends on water to function.
C. It is to inspire people to learn more about water-related problems.
D. If children walk many hours a day to get water, they can’t go to school.
E. Did you know that around 750 million people do not have clean water to drink?
F. In 1993 the United Nations decided that March 22nd is the World Day for Water.
G. In this way, they know how it feels to walk a long distance carrying heavy bottles.

I joined the army as an infantryman (步兵) instead of as a helicopter pilot because I only had the literacy (读写) level of an 11-year-old. I had no idea that I had a reading level that 41 ; I had just 42 words when I didn't know them, and usually ended up getting them wrong.

But you are never going to progress 50 you keep learning.The unbelievable educational 51 that the army offers make it one of the few places that can help you climb up the ladder of social classes in the UK.
For me, improving my literacy level had another more surprising 52 . When I left the army, I was asked to write a(n) 53 of the Bravo Two Zero Mission and that led to the unexpected career change of becoming a(n) 54 .
I have spent quite a bit of time over the past few years 55 schools, and workplaces, as well as army bases and businesses, to talk about my past and 56 others to start reading and writing like me. The 57 I give to all the people that I chat to is that if I can do it, anyone can. If that is a message that even one of them accepts and 58 then it has been 59 .

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,便之构成一个完整的故事。
The most delicious memories seem to happen during the holidays. And like a squirrel preparing for winter, I put them away to enjoy slowly during the long winter months. Sometimes, I enjoy them for years.
Among them are sweetest recollections: my little girls at the church play and the moment they got their first angel wings; a pink dolly stroller(手推车) wheeled into the bedroom with a tiny voice declaring, ''Look what Santa Claus brought me! ''; or New Year's snowmen wearing bright scarves borrowed from a grandma's fragrant drawer.
But there is one memory that is a little bittersweet -- sort of like 80% dark chocolate, but still good for you.
This story brings to mind a colorful candy dish and a very little boy. The occasion was somewhere between Christmas and New Year's when a few candies in a dish remained behind, a bright spot in dull winter gray.
Wrapped in December's chill, my then 3-year old grandson, Justin, and I had dashed from the warmth of my parked car into the building where I planned to take care of a few work-related tasks.
A smiling secretary greeted us as we brushed the snowflakes and rubbed our hands to chase the cold. Then with my grandchild close to my side, I busied myself, finishing the items of business that had brought us there. But while his hand remained in mine, his eyes fell on the candy dish sitting nearby.
As we turned to leave, the thoughtful and very observant woman behind the desk asked the question all children wait to hear.
''Honey, '' the kindly woman said, peering over her glasses at Justin. ''Would you like a candy bar? '' she asked, her hand pushing the dish close for an easier reach.
The boy looked up questioningly, his eyes meeting mine, permission hanging in the air. A slight nod from me and then a hurried beeline to the candy dish followed. One candy bar was already in his hand.
Para 1: ''Justin! '' I said from the doorway.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________Para 2: In the humor of the moment, I felt something hard to swallow.

读后续写
''Justin!'' I said from the doorway. By this time his pudgy hands had grabbed one -- and only one -- and he made his way back to me. My voice was somewhat serious as I realized manners had been forgotten. ''What do you say? '' Hearing this, the little boy turned on his heel, promptly returning to the candy dish. ''Get Grandma one, too! '' I laughed. The secretary laughed. And even little Justin innocently giggled at the fun we were having.
In the humor of the moment, I felt something hard to swallow. There was a truth that lingered long after the strawberry candy taste had disappeared. What example had I set for this little one while
often in my care? Was he learning more about ''getting'' and less about gratitude -- that heartfelt ''thank you''? In the years since, I've always loved to remember that moment. But one gift I hope we all leave with our children is the importance of a grateful heart. Really, what could be sweeter?
阅读理解及七选五详解
【篇章大意:本文属于非连续类文本阅读。介绍了四则招工广告的内容:学历、性格、相关经 历、工作时段以及薪资待遇等。
21.答案:B细节理解题。根据题干上有关键词信息“a pizza delivery driver”,再根据该广告中的“Email us with information about ...when you can work.”信息可知,披萨外卖司机必须告知雇主哪个时段可以上班,故选B
22.答案:A细节理解题。根据题干关键“a casual sale assistant”,再根据该广告中的“…can work on Mondays and weekends between 9am and 5pm."以及"Pay is $ 14. 50/hr, but $25/hr at weekends”信息,可知答案。
23.答案:C细节理解题。通读全文,根据TV Host广告中的“a confident and lively personality"以及Casual Sale Assistant 广告中的“…great willingness to talk to others"信息,可知答案。
24. D 推理判断题 根据第一段中的If she thought you were dressed improperly, she sent you straight back home to change your clothes. 可知Mrs. Calloway对衣着严格要求以及第三段中她对图书借阅严格规定可知,Mrs. Calloway是一位严格的图书管理员。
25. C 推理判断题 根据第三段最后I read library books as fast as I could go, rushing them home … I knew this was extreme happiness, knew it at the time. 可知,作者那时候如饥似渴地阅读;根据本段Now, I think of her as reading so much …,可知作者的母亲也很渴望阅读。
26. B推理判断题 通读全文可知,作者是在回忆自己童年时代的阅读经历,最可能出自自传。
【篇章大意:本文属于新闻报道。介绍了英国脱欧历程以及脱欧后所面临的问题。
27.答案:B词义猜测题。该词所在句的前面谈到:2016年6月23日,英国成年人做出了历史性的决定。超 过3300万人投票支持英国脱离欧盟。该单词所在句后面谈到:约52%的英国选民(略多于 一半)投票决定退出欧盟。由此推知,该词意思就是“投票”之意。
28.答案:D细节理解题。第二段前面部分谈到:在英国和欧盟领导人就脱欧问题进行了大量讨论之后,英国
议会于2020年1月22日(周三)最终通过了一项关于英国脱离欧盟的协议,伊丽莎白女王二 世于周四同意了该协议。再结合“If everything went well, the UK would leave the EU on January 31,2020”(如果一切顺利,英国将于2020年1月31日脱离欧盟。)信息,可推知,该天 应该是星期五。
29.答案:A推理判断题。本题要综合全文信息来解答。2016年6月23日,英国就通过公投决定脱欧,经过 三年半左右的时间,才正式脱欧。文中有"After UK and EU leaders had lots of hard negotiations about... ";''the British Parliament finally approved …";''The UK finally and officially left the EU...”等信息,说明英国脱欧历程艰难。
30.答案:B态度观点题。最后一段谈到:让事情变得更加困难的是,英国脱欧的下一个挑战已经到来。英国和欧盟现在有近一年的时间来制定他们未来关系的细节。许多专家表达了他们的共同担忧: 达成这些新协议将经历与最初的英国脱欧协议相同的经历。由此可知,专家们对英国脱欧的下一步工作表示很担忧。
31.答案C根据文章第五段...Pollack’s intellectual power and clarity of phrase are invaluable in describing the scientific evidence for global warming, the ways in which it will affect the world, and the all-too-probable consequences. 可知,在描述全球变暖的科学证据、全球变暖对世界的影响以及极有可能产生的后果时,Pollack的智慧和清晰的措辞是无价的。以及本段后面的内容可知,A World Without Ice这本书对全球变暖进行了深入的分析。
32.答案: D根据文章第七段...On the subject of the book itself, he writes, “nature is the best thermometer, perhaps its most sensitive and unambiguous indicator of climate change is ice.”可知,关于这本书的主题,他写道,“自然是最好的温度计,也许它最敏感和最明确的气候变化指示信号是冰。”从而可知,冰是对气候变化敏感的明显指示信号。
33.答案: A根据文章第八段...If we want to avoid the worst that climate change may bring, we need “every horse in the stable pull together, and as hard and as fast as possible.”可知,如果我们想避免气候变化可能带来的最坏情况,我们需要“马棚里的每匹马都齐心协力,尽可能地努力和快速”。从而可知,文章第八段划线句子意思是敦促我们共同努力应对气候变化。
34.答案: C根据文章的具体内容和分析可知,此处的that指代全球变暖的影响。本文主要以全球变暖的影响以及应对全球变暖的策略中心来展开具体讨论。
35.答案: B根据文章第九段... attractive, persuasive, 以及第五段的 intellectual power and clarity of phrase are invaluable.可知作者对A World Without Ice 这个本的态度是积极的。
36. A 此空作为段首句,起承上启下的作用。第一段讲了人和水的直接关系,第二段讲的是水在生活中的用途,是人和水之间的间接关系。故选A。
37. E 根据空前提到的“并不是全世界很多人都能喝到干净的水”,空后一句提到的“这大概是世界十分之一的人口”,可知,前面一句应该涉及人口数量,故选E。
38. D 空前一句提到“在一些国家,孩子们要步行很远才能取到水”和空后“因此,他们没有时间学习读书写字,不能接受教育”,可知此空承上启下,说明孩子们不能上学的原因是每天要花很多时间去取水。
39. F 由空后的this day可知选F。
40. G 空前提到“在英国的一所学校,10到15岁的孩子们带着6升水步行6公里”,可知这是在效仿取水困难地区的孩子们,人们以这种方式让孩子们体会去很远的地方取水的艰难,让孩子们知道洁净水的珍贵。

M: Good morning, everyone, I am Professor Smith, and I am your laboratory instructor. This class is intended as a necessary part of the course, which Dr. James will be in charge of. This class will meet twice a week in this laboratory. It begins at nine. First I expect you to be on time. I do not intend to wait for latecomers or repeat what has already been covered if you miss the explanation. Do not arrive late and interrupt your neighbor; you may as well not come if you can’t be on time.
Attendance is equally important. If you miss three lab classes, your name will be moved away from the class list, I’m afraid. No excuses. You can’t complete the course without completing lab class.
Safety is key here. It is very important to keep things neat and clean, dress properly, and be careful. You cannot eat, drink or smoke in the laboratory and you should always clean the table top and wash your hands before and after the class. Long hair must be tied up. Large clothing must be worn. And, finally, any laboratory accident must be reported immediately.
I hope you’ll enjoy the laboratory. It’s a wonderful place but all these instructions are to be strictly followed. We will begin today by learning about the microscope.
