“For young people whose parents are university educated, 51 such as fame and mastery
of expert knowledge are important. They are 52 by an educational culture in which you are a
diligent student, and where leisure activities are 53 to the identity that lies within your studies.
These young people have also grown up with 54 discussions around the dinner table which
also prepare them for their lives as students,” says Jens Peter Thomsen.
He also added, “Young people who come from a working class background, and have good
grades have to 55 the full range of opportunities they have. But the effort to reach this goal

第三部分 阅读理解(共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)
请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Teachers say the digital age has had a good influence - and a not-so-good influence - on this
generation of American teenagers. More than 2,000 teachers took an online survey. Three-quarters
of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a " mostly positive" effect on
their students' research habits and skills. But 64 percent said the technologies " do more to distract
(使……分心) students than to help them academically. " And 87 percent agreed that these
technologies are creating an " easily distracted generation with short attention spans. "
The Pew Internet Project did the survey with the National Writing Project. Judy Buchanan is
the vice director of the National Writing Project and a co-author of the report. Ms. Buchanan says
digital research tools are helping students learn more and faster. " Teachers really favor these tools
because they are ways to make some of the learning exciting and engaging. Young people favor
these tools. The goal is to really help them become creators of meaningful content, and not just
sort of consumers. "
But one problem the survey found is that many students lack digital literacy. They trust too
much of the information they find on the Internet. Judy says these students haven' t developed the
skills to determine the quality of online information. " It' s something that really has to be taught
and paid attention to. Because in a world in which things happen quickly, you do need to step back,
reflect and analyze the information you have. "
Another problem is blamed on something that might not seem like a problem at all: being
able to quickly find information online. Teachers say the result is a reduction in the desire and
ability of their students to work hard to find answers. They say students are overly dependent on
search engines and do not make enough use of printed books or research libraries.
Many teachers are also concerned that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work
done by others instead of using their own abilities.
56. The text mainly tells us____.
A. all the students use digital tools
B. the Internet is playing a key role
____________________________________________________________________________________________
C. teachers encourage using digital tools
D. digital tools bring about benefits and problems
57. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?
58. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means________.
A. students do not have the right digital tools
B. students do not always have access to the Internet
C. students haven' t the ability to adjust themselves
D. students can' t judge online information properly
59. Some students don' t tend to work hard because_________.
A. they can get answers on the Internet quickly
B. printed books and libraries around aren' t enough
C. the Internet can' t make students concentrate
D. they can copy each others' work without being punished
B
Helen Thomas, the pioneering White House reporter known for putting presidents on the hot
seat, died at 92.
To those who regularly watch presidential press conferences, Helen Thomas is a familiar
figure. Usually dressed in red and always seated in the front row, she is always the first or second
reporter the president calls upon. It is an honor she has earned. Besides, it affords her the perfect
opportunity to do what she does best - challenge the president and other public officials to tell the
plain truth. She said, " We reporters' priority(首要事情) is the people' s right to know - without
fear or favor. We are the people' s servants. "
Helen Thomas was born in Kentucky in 1920. All the nine Thomas children were brought up
to value education, and all were expected to make something of themselves through working hard.
She made up her mind while still in high school to become a reporter after writing for the student
newspaper. After receiving her bachelor' s degree in 1942, Thomas headed straight for Washington,
D. C. in search of a newspaper job. Before long, she landed one at Washington Daily News. Her
duty included fetching coffee and doughnuts for the paper' s reporters and editors. The eager
young woman found the atmosphere exciting and was convinced she had made the right career
choice.
Her big break came when she was sent to Florida to report on the vacation of President-elect
John F. Kennedy and his family. Once President Kennedy took office, Thomas changed her focus
from the president' s family to his policies. She began attending the daily press briefings at the
White House as well as presidential press conferences. Thomas has covered every president since
Kennedy. Over the years, Thomas found her job " thrilling and inspiring," but never boring. And
she took very seriously her duty to " keep an eye on the president" and keep American people

If you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station, you
don' t need to feel surprised. They are a flash mob(快闪族), which is a group of people who come
together suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, and then
quickly break up. They are usually organized with the help of the Internet or other digital
communication network. At a predetermined time, they gather and perform some distractions(消
遣)such as waving their hands and exchanging books. Then, they quickly break up before the
police can arrive. Using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its location if the first one has
been replaced for any reason.
Bill Lasik, senior editor of Harper’s Magazine,organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in
May 2003 and the first successful flash mob came together on June 3,2003 — after the first
attempt was foiled at Macy' s department store. Lasik claimed that the activity was designed to
make fun of hipsters(赶时髦的人), and call attention to the cultural atmosphere.
Flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock people. Such an activity might seem amusing and
untrue, but it also might frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place. Undoubtedly,
flash mobs can serve as good political tools in any direction. They also have great economic
potential, such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.
The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things. For
example, in 2019, Michael Jackson' s fans took part in a flash mob to remember him. Hundreds of
his fans gathered singing and dancing Michael' s famous song " Beat It" together. Flash mobs give
people from all walks of life an opportunity to come together to create a memory.

A. forgotten
____________________________________________________________________________________________
B. prevented
C. announced
D. confirmed

B. Once the place for the activity is determined, it can' t be changed.
C. The flash mob can be made use of in many fields just for fun.
D. It gives people the chance to come together to do something unusual.
66. The main purpose of the passage is___________.
A. to entertain
B. to encourage
C. to inform
D. to persuade
67. The writer' s attitude towards the flash mob is_____________.
A. negative
B. objective

第四部分 任务型阅读(共 10 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 10 分)
请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单
词。
注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Talk about happiness
We should not hesitate too much during the first half of our lives, while we should not regret
at what we’ve done during the other half. We should seize every opportunity to find a way out in
our lives, for it goes off swiftly. We should say something urgent slowly, something serious clearly,
something small humorously and something unsure cautiously. We should never say something
that did not happen, something that you cannot do, something that does harm to others, and
something that is disgusting. We should tell others our happiness on specific occasions and should
not tell anyone our unhappiness. Do not easily say something about others. We should follow our
own heart and interest, and fulfill what we should do instead of merely paying lip service and
looking forward to the future.
Everyone is longing for a happy life, but owning wealth does not necessarily mean owning
happiness. To truly reach happiness, we need to know how to get on with others. So we need to
understand what happiness is really about and achieve what we desire.
We need to know and understand happiness before we finally get it. A smart man must know
to do something good even though it may be small, and not to do something evil even though it
may be tiny in the course of socializing. As long as we keep a kind heart and do everything
morally and legally, we can live a peaceful life. But if we keep an evil heart and do whatever we
want, we are indeed digging a tomb for ourselves. A smart man knows to learn a lesson from his
falls, for he knows that every setback is a precious experience leading to happiness in the future.
He will not waste his time in criticizing others. Instead, he tends to spend more time seeking his
own happiness. He knows to keep a heart of conscience and not to spread others’ mistakes. He
also knows to think before he leaps so that he will not feel regretful afterwards. Moreover, he
knows to tolerate others, so he can naturally lead a happy life.
Without happiness, one will feel terribly miserable, for he always insists that he has done the
right thing all the time and that others often do wrong to him. He blames every mistake on others
or the environment instead of reflecting on himself, which keeps him farther and farther away
____________________________________________________________________________________________
from happiness. A celebrity once said, “Nobody intends to make mistakes. One makes mistakes
because of his ignorance.” Therefore, if someone makes mistakes, we need to care about him,
forgive him and enlighten him by setting a good example to him instead of losing temper and
hating him. Otherwise, we are also ignorant like him, for we also make a stupid mistake that leads
us farther from happiness.
In order to possess a happy life, we need to know more about others, about the society, about
our culture and history. We should be patriotic(爱国的), obey the law and realize our own
responsibility, and then we will definitely have a happy life.

As we can see in the picture, a boy sits in a cage like a bird, looking unhappily at his father, who
sits opposite to him, looking puzzled on his face. There is a piece of paper which says “summer
vacation”. The boy plans to go fishing, play football, climb mountains, go out for a ride and play
chess. But the father keeps him in a cage for “safety” for fear of a car accident, drowning, falling
off a tree, fighting or being deceived.
It reflects the way in which the parents protect their children from dangers while the children are
growing up. Is it a good way to do that? I don’t agree. It seems to be safe staying in the cage.
But the little boy will never know what a danger is and how to deal with it. So he may not adapt to
the surroundings on his own in the future.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
In my opinion, the parents should let their children out into nature to enlarge their knowledge and
widen their sights during their holidays.
