【答案】1. on 2. including
3. that/which
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。主要说明了篮球英雄Kobe Bryant的离世在中国各地引发了震惊和悲伤。Bryant是飞机上的九名乘客之一,其中包括他13岁的女儿Gianna,他们都在这场大雾造成的灾难中丧生。
【1题详解】
考查介词。句意:周日,前洛杉矶湖人队18届NBA全明星赛冠军在加利福尼亚一架直升机坠毁,享年41岁。中国的篮球迷们得知这一消息后都很伤心。根据短语on Sunday表示“在周日”。故填on。
【2题详解】
考查介词。句意:Bryant是飞机上的九名乘客之一,其中包括他13岁的女儿Gianna,他们都在这场大雾造成的灾难中丧生。此处表示“包括……在内”后跟宾语his 13-year-old daughter Gianna应用介词including。故填including。
【3题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:Bryant是飞机上的九名乘客之一,其中包括他13岁的女儿Gianna
,他们都在这场大雾造成的灾难中丧生。本句为定语从句修饰先行词disaster,且先行词在从句中做主语,指“灾难”故用关系代词that或which。故填that/which。
【点睛】定语从句中的关系词选择,可考虑以下几点:
1、看清楚先行词的意义,就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用who或whom,指人时通常不用which等等。
2、看清楚关系词的句法功能,就是理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等。作定语通常用whose,有时也用which。作状语要用when, where, why。
3、看清楚定语从句的种类,就是理清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句。that, why通常不引导非限制性定语从句。
4、看清楚文体,就是理清是正式文体,还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。
如第三小题,句意:Bryant是飞机上的九名乘客之一,其中包括他13岁的女儿Gianna,他们都在这场大雾造成的灾难中丧生。本句为定语从句修饰先行词disaster,且先行词在从句中做主语,指“灾难”故用关系代词that或which。故填that/which。

A
It is every kid’s worst nightmare and six-year-old Jaden Hayes has lived it - twice. Firstly, he lost his dad when he was four and then last month his mom died unexpectedly in her sleep.
“I tried and I tried and I tried to get her awake - I couldn't,” said Jaden. Jaden was understandably heartbroken.
But there was another side to his grief. A side he first made public a few weeks ago when he told his aunt, and now guardian, Barbara DiCola, that he was sick and tired of seeing everyone sad all the time. And he had a plan to fix it.
“And that was the beginning of it,” said Barbara. “That’s where the adventure began.”
Jaden asked his aunt Barbara to buy a bunch of little toys and bring him to downtown Savannah, Georgia near where he lives, so he could give them away.
“I’m trying to make people smile,” said Jaden.
Jaden targeted people who weren’t already smiling and then turned their day around. He’d go out on four different occasions now and he was always successful. Even if sometimes he didn’t get exactly the reaction he was hoping for.
It was just so overwhelming to some people that a six-year-old orphan would give away a toy- expecting nothing in return - except a smile.
“I’m counting on it to be 33, 000,” said Jaden. When asked if he thought he could make that goal, he answered, “I think I can.”
31. Why did Jaden give the toys to other people?
A. Because he wanted to fix the toys.
B. Because he wanted to see more people.
C. Because he wanted to give the toys away.
D. Because he wanted to make people happy.
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Jaden lived with his aunt.
B. Jaden targeted people who were not happy.
C. Jaden got nothing he wanted all the time.
D. Jaden was sick and tired of seeing everyone.
33. Which of the following words can best describe Jaden?
A. Helpful and impatient. B. Creative and tricky.
C. Optimistic and courageous. D. Ambitious and greedy.
【答案】31. D 32. B 33. C
【解析】

【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“I’m trying to make people smile,” said Jaden.可知Jaden说:“我想让人们微笑。”由此可知,Jaden把玩具给别人因为他想让人们快乐。故选D。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段Jaden targeted people who weren’t already smiling and then turned their day around.可知Jaden的目标是那些没有笑容的人,然后改变他们的一天。由此可知,Jaden瞄准的是那些不快乐的人。故选B。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容Jaden的小男孩在挚爱双亲去世后依旧表现得坚强,想要通过送别人玩具来给人们带去快乐。由此可推知,Jaden是一个乐观和勇敢的孩子。故选C。
B
Tesla’s lifestyle products tend to cash in on the brand appeal of the electric carmaker and its very publicly engaged chief manager Elon Musk, and the new Tesla Wireless Charger is no exception. It is not for the car, but for the cellphone.
The device, which is sold on Tesla’s website alongside hats and the company’s existing desktop and portable chargers, is a small, Apple-like device that costs $65. It has an integrated USB-C cable for when you want to plug it directly into your device, and a USB-A port for non-USB-C devices. You can get it in black or white, but it only comes with 6,000mAh of juice and 5W of output charging (The wired charging method gets you 7.5W).
For about half the price, you can get Anker’s 10,000mAh Power Core charger, which has 12W of output charging but no wireless charging capabilities. For $50, you can get an RAV Power 10,400mAh wireless charger with 10W of output.
Of course, nobody is really buying this for the functions. They’re buying it because it has a Tesla logo on it and it looks really nice, which is totally fair for $65 and the ease of use wireless charging allows. It’s not a bad purchase for a big Tesla fan.
34. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. A Wired Charging Method B. A New Wireless Charger
C. A New Tesla Car D. A New Apple Device
35. If you spend $32.5, you can get ______.
A. a desktop
B. a Tesla wireless charger
C. an RAV Power wireless charger
D. an Anker’s 10,000mAh Power Core charger
36. A new wireless charger has ______.
A. 12W of output charging B. 10W of output charging
C. 5W of output charging D. 7.5W of output charging
37. Where is the passage most probably from?
A. A literary essay. B. A science report.
C. A historical novel. D. A sale website.
【答案】34. B 35. D 36. C 37. D
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一款无线充电器的情况,包括其功率和价格等情况。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章主要介绍了一款无线充电器的情况,包括其功率和价格等情况。故B选项“一个新的无线充电器”符合文章标题。故选B。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中可知The device, which is sold on Tesla’s website alongside hats and the company’s existing desktop and portable chargers, is a small, Apple-like device that costs $65.可知这款设备在特斯拉的网站上与转换终端、公司现有的台式电脑和便携式充电器一起出售。它是一款类似苹果的小型设备,售价65美元。以及第三段中For about half the price, you can get Anker’s 10,000mAh Power Core charger…可知以大约一半的价格,你可以买到Anker的10,000毫安时功率Power Core充电器……由此可知,如果你花32.5美元,你就可以得到Anker的1万毫安Power Core充电器。故选D。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中You can get it in black or white, but it only comes with 6,000mAh of juice and 5W of output charging (The wired charging method gets you 7.5W).可知你可以买到黑色或白色的,但它只有6000毫安时的电量和5W的输出电量(有线充电方式是7.5W)。由此可知,一个新的无线充电器有5W的输出充电。故选C。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中可知The device, which is sold on Tesla’s website alongside hats and the company’s existing desktop and portable chargers, is a small, Apple-like device that costs $65.可知这款设备在特斯拉的网站上与转换终端、公司现有的台式电脑和便携式充电器一起出售。它是一款类似苹果的小型设备,售价65美元。由此可推知,文章最有可能来自销售网站。故选D。
【点睛】文章出处类推理判断题。做这类题重要的是要抓住文章的内容或结构特征,这是推理判断的前提和基础。如报纸,前面会出现日期、地点、通讯社名称等;广告,其格式特殊,容易辨认;产品说明、器皿设备的使用说明有产品名称或操作方法,而药品的服用说明会告知服用时间、次数和药量等。如第四小题,根据第二段中可知The device, which is sold on Tesla’s website alongside hats and the company’s existing desktop and portable chargers, is a small, Apple-like device that costs $65.可知这款设备在特斯拉的网站上与转换终端、公司现有的台式电脑和便携式充电器一起出售。它是一款类似苹果的小型设备,售价65美元。由此可推知,文章最有可能来自销售网站。故选D。

New study shows rapid decline in insect populations. A growing number of the Earth's insect population now can be seen only in collections on exhibitions. Nobody's seen those for 400 years. A new review of over 70 studies of insect populations suggests that human pressures are causing insect populations to plummet by as much as a quarter every decade. The loss of species is inevitably concerning because often we don’t know what those species are doing or we don’t know what other species are depending on them.
Insects make up the largest class of animals on earth and represent more than half of all known living creatures. They are incredibly diverse, and in many ways make life on Earth possible. But when we decrease the number of species, we're destroying ecosystem function. Why does that matter? It is because that it's ecosystems that support humans. But those life-support systems that keep us alive, even if we live in a city, are produced by healthy ecosystems. And none of these ecosystems will run well without insects. Bees and butterflies pollinate(授粉) our food, flowers and trees. They feed all kinds of larger animals, including humans. A large number of crops we eat and rely on are pollinated by insects, so we can’t imagine a world where that pollination process is not taking place.
And there are some cases already around the world where we are having to pollinate by hand, at huge cost, a huge economic cost, simply because the insects aren’t there to do the work that we would normally ask them to do for free. And in some cases, if you’re talking about food crops, just try to imagine the scale of what the world would look like if insects weren't doing that for us. One big warning, all of the studies come from industrialized countries in Europe and North America. In some areas, the decline is even more rapid. According to one recent study, the number of ground insects in Puerto Rico has fallen by 98% over the last 35 years. A growing body of research shows that insects are declining about twice as fast as vertebrates.
The researchers predict that all insect species could be gone in a century in these industrialized countries
38. What does the underlined word “plummet” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Reduce. B. Increase.
C. Disappear. D. Raise.
39. We can learn from Paragraph 2 and 3 that ______.
A. we can make a big profit by pollinating by hand
B. insects have no impact on industrial development
C. pollinating by hand can replace pollinating by insects
D. insects account for the largest composition in the entire animal kingdom
40. What’s the author’s attitude towards the phenomenon mentioned in the news?
A. Unclear. B. Concerned.
C. Suspicious. D. Critical.
41. The author helps readers better understand his idea mainly by ______.
A. using research results B. making comparisons
C. giving some examples D. telling personal stories
【答案】38. A 39. D 40. B 41. C
【解析】

When I re-entered the full-time work after a decade of running my own business, there was a top thing I was looking forward to: to make friends with the colleagues once again. As a matter of fact, it wasn't until I entered the company that I realized making friends with colleagues wasn’t the first at all. It is developing interpersonal relationships at work that is vital, which can not only help overcome a range of problems at work but also promote productivity and the quality of work output.
Perhaps my expectations of lunches and chatting with friends were the memory of the last time I was in that kind of office environment. However, as I near the end of my fourth decade, I realize work can be fully functional and entirely satisfying without needing to be the best workmates with the people sitting next to you.
In an academic analysis just published in the very influential Journal of Management, researchers have developed the idea of "indifferent relationships", which is a simple term that summarizes the fact that relationships at work can be less close, unimportant and even replaceable.
Indifferent relationships are neither positive nor negative. The limited research conducted so far shows they're especially obvious among those who value independence over cooperation, and harmony over disharmony. Indifference is also the preferred choice among those who are socially lazy and regard maintaining relationships over the long term takes effort.
As mentioned above indifferent relationships may not always be the most helpful way in solving problems at work. Even so, there are proven benefits on indifferent relationship. One of them is efficiency. Less time chatting and socializing means more time working and producing. Another is self-respect. As human beings, we tend to compare ourselves to each other. Apparently, we look down on acquaintances more than friends. In the process their strengths can raise the sense of self-worth. The third advantage is that the emotional neutrality of indifferent relationships has
been found to improve critical thinking, enhance people’s attention to task solving, and make it easier to gain valuable information.
None of those benefits might be as fun as after-work socializing but, hey, I'll take it anyway.
42. What did the author realize when he re-entered the company?
A. Building interpersonal relationships was important.
B. Making new friends with workmates was not so easy as he had expected.
C. Developing positive interpersonal relationships helped him find his place.
D. Working in companies requires more interpersonal skills than self-employment.
43. Which one belongs to indifferent relationships at work according to the passage?
A. Being in conflict with workmates in the office.
B. Spending less time chatting and socializing in the office.
C. Having deep and meaningful conversations with colleagues.
D. Being the best mates with the people sitting next to you in the office.
44. What can be one of the benefits of the indifferent relationships?
A. They provide fun at work.
B. They improve work efficiency.
C. They help control emotions at work.
D. They help solve problems during work time.
45. What’s the author’s attitude towards indifferent relationships?
A. Cautious. B. Doubtful.
C. Approving. D. Indifferent.
【答案】42. A 43. B 44. B 45. C

How to Automate New Habits So That You’ll Keep to Them
Anyone who’s tried to add something new to their routine knows one thing: Building new habits isn’t easy.___46___
The good news: There’s a solution, and it’s called automation.___47___For example: If you want to save more but it seems difficult to achieve, try transferring five dollars to your savings
account each time you buy lunch during the week. If you want to do more sports but aren’t motivated to go to the gym every day, try doing 5 pushups after each time you use the restroom.
That sounds easy.____48____“Automation works well in developing new behavior patterns because it involves the use of positive reinforcement(强化), which is one of the most powerful tools for behavior change,” Kahina Louis, a psychologist, tells Shine.
“As you’re engaging in gradual steps toward your goals, you may quickly start to experience feelings of accomplishment and pride that you’re making the changes you wanted to make,” she says. “Those positive feelings are forms of reinforcement, and you are more likely to continue doing things that reinforce you.”
Along with its positive reinforcement, automation emphasizes the impact of small changes in making a big difference. Though we all love the major successes, the small changes along the way are what get us there in the first step.____49____ “As you show yourself each small change you’ve made, you’re giving yourself the message that you are capable of accomplishment,” Louis says. “That feeling and self-belief are extremely helpful to have as you continue toward creating new behavior change.”
___50___ Take a look at what things you keep doing throughout the day or course of the week to decide when to add new automation. Louis says, “For example: If you know that you’re always extremely tired after work, then you might consider picking an auto habit that occurs in your morning routine rather than in the evening.”
Louis also explains that although you should pick a behavior that occurs frequently enough to maximize the opportunities to build towards your goal, try not to choose an already existing behavior that occurs too often-like checking your phone or drinking of water. “You might not even realize you’re doing it, and may then miss a lot of chances to perform the new habit,” she says.
A. Find your auto habits.
B. It takes time and insistence.
C. But it turns out to be efficient while trying.
D. Consider auto habits that occur at times or places.
E. It’s the small steps that fuel your motivation and self-belief.
F. It is when you add what you’d like to be your new habit onto an existing habit.
G. Building a new habit requires strong mind to help the process go along smoothly.
【答案】46. B 47. F 48. C 49. E 50. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种名为“自动化”的行为模式,可以有助于人们养成新的好习惯。自动化强调了小的变化对产生大的不同的影响。心理学家Kahina Louis也提出了自己对此的看法。
【46题详解】
根据上文Anyone who’s tried to add something new to their routine knows one thing: Building new habits isn’t easy.可知任何试图在日常生活中增加一些新东西人都知道一件事:养成新习惯并不容易。由此可知,本句承接上文说明为什么养成新的习惯不容易,这是因为养成新的习惯需要时间和坚持。上文中Building new habits对应到B选项中的It。故B选项“这需要时间和坚持”符合上下文语境,故选B。
【47题详解】
根据后文For example: If you want to save more but it seems difficult to achieve, try transferring five dollars to your savings account each time you buy lunch during the week. If you want to do more sports but aren’t motivated to go to the gym every day, try doing 5 pushups after each time you use the restroom.可知例如:如果你想存更多的钱,但似乎很难做到,那就试着每周每次买午餐时把5美元转到你的储蓄账户上。如果你想做更多的运动,但又不想每天都去健身房,那就试试每次上完厕所后做5个俯卧撑吧。由此可知,自动化的意思是在你原有的习惯上增加新的习惯。故F选项“它是你把你想要的新习惯添加到已有的习惯上”符合上下文语境,故选F。
【48题详解】
根据后文“Automation works well in developing new behavior patterns because it involves the use of positive reinforcement, which is one of the most powerful tools for behavior change,” Kahina Louis, a psychologist, tells Shine.可知心理学家Kahina Louis告诉Shine网站:“自动化在开发新的行为模式方面效果很好,因为它涉及到积极强化的使用,这是改变行为最有力的工具之一。”由此可知,自动化是有效的改变行为的工具之一。故C选项“但它在尝试的过程中是有效的”符合上下文语境,故选C。
【49题详解】
根据后文“As you show yourself each small change you’ve made, you’re giving yourself the message that you are capable of accomplishment,” Louis says.可知Louis说:“当你向自己展示你所做
每一个小改变时,你给了自己一个信息:你有能力完成这些改变。”由此可知,这些小的步骤会激发你的自信,让你相信自己有能力完成这些改变。故E选项“这些小步骤会激发你的动力和自信”符合上下文语境,故选E。
【50题详解】
根据后文Take a look at what things you keep doing throughout the day or course of the week to decide when to add new automation. Louis says, “For example: If you know that you’re always extremely tired after work, then you might consider picking an auto habit that occurs in your morning routine rather than in the evening.”可知看看你每天或每周都在做些什么来决定什么时候添加新的自动化。Louis说:“例如如果你知道你下班后总是特别累,那么你可以考虑选择一个在早上而不是晚上养成的开车习惯。”由此可知本段是在建议要找到自己的自动习惯。故A选项“找到你自动习惯”符合上下文语境,故选A。

【答案】Last week, school delayed because of fighting with COVID-19, we were asked to learn online, which proved to be a meaningful and memorable experience.
Last Monday, our teacher informed us of the news that we would delay school and learn online. Hearing that, I determined to learn hard on my own. Although it was a challenging task, we regarded it as a precious opportunity to be more independent.
The next morning, hardly had I turned on the computer when our teacher began the broadcast. So clearly did he explain the lesson that I nearly felt we were in class as usual, in which we discussed and gave presentations.
Tired as I was after fixing my eyes on the screen for nearly 6 hours, I set down to do my homework. When I had questions, I asked my teachers for help and received timely help.
Having finished all the homework, I took pictures and uploaded them to the internet, hoping to receive the comments as soon as possible. After some time, I got the message from my teacher, who praised me for my excellent performance and gave detailed guidance.
Despite the difficulties we faced when we were having the classes online, I felt it valuable to do like this to fight with the disease with the people all over the country, even all over the world. Only by working together could we not only acquire the knowledge we should master but also defeat the disease.
