A group of Dutch high school students with little sailing experience completed a five-week trip across the Atlantic Ocean on Sunday. The students, aged 14 to 17, were joined by 12
experienced crew members and three teachers. They had been taking part in an educational voyage of the Caribbean when the extreme weather forced them to greatly change the way they returned home.
Instead of flying back home from Cuba as they had planned, the crew members and students gathered supplies and warm clothes. Then, they set sail for the Dutch port city of Harlingen, 7,000 kilometers away. Their boat, the Wylde Swan, arrived at Harlingen late Sunday morning. Observers gathered at a sea wall to watch the arrival.
As they arrived, the students hung up a self-made sign on the boat that read “Bucket List”. It showed they had completed activities that included crossing the Atlantic Ocean, mid-ocean swimming and surviving the Bermuda Triangle, an area in the Atlantic where some people declare ships and planes have mysteriously disappeared. The students’ family members were waiting for them at the port.
Masterskip, the company that organized the boat trip, runs five educational voyages for about 150 students each year. Crossing the Atlantic is nothing new for the Wylde Swan, which has made the trip about 20 times. The company’s director, Christophe Meijer, said he was pleased the students had adapted to life on the boat and had kept up their education on the long trip. “They are actually far ahead now of their Dutch school students,” Meijer said, “They have made us very proud.”
4. Why didn’t the group return home as planned?
A. They were inexperienced travelers.
B They did not have enough supplies.
C. Their flight home had been cancelled.
D. The bad weather changed their plan.
5. How long has Masterskip been organizing educational voyages?
A. For about 4 years. B. For about 5 years.
C. For about 14 years. D. For about 20 years.
6. What does Christophe Meijer think of the trip?
A. Adventurous. B. Tiresome.
C. Worthwhile. D. Amusing.
7. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Teenagers survived mysterious Bermuda Triangle.
B. Dutch students completed a trip across the Atlantic Ocean.
C. Masterskip organized educational voyages for students.
D. Dutch students experienced a new way of entertainment.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B
【分析】

【5题详解】

【点睛】概括主旨的方法是:先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句,若无明显主题句,就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句,记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时,务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。本文是一篇新闻报道,该类文章的中心一般就在第一段。因此,考生直接抓住第一段中的第一句“A group of Dutch high school students with little sailing experience completed a five-week trip across the Atlantic Ocean on Sunday. ”即可找到文章中心。

Researchers have used high technology methods to learn secrets about a famous painting Girl with Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer. Vermeer is considered one of the masters of art in the 1600s. The researchers’ tests haven’t discovered the identity of the mysterious girl in the painting. But they have found out important information about how Vermeer did the painting.
A careful examination of very small pieces of paint showed where some of the painting’s pigments (颜料) came from. The white that helps form the earring comes from lead from the Peak District in northern England. The blue is made from a valuable stone found in Afghanistan. The red is made from insects that live on cactus plants in Mexico and South America.
Abbie Vandivere was leader of the research project. She expressed surprise that Vermeer used so much blue in the painting, noting, “This blue pigment was more valuable than gold in the 17th century.” Vermeer, however, didn’t have to travel the world to get his materials. He most likely bought them in his hometown of Delft.
“The research findings don’t just show details about Vermeer’s materials,” said Vandivere, “but also tell us about world trade in the 17th century.” The research also uncovered the order in which Vermeer painted the girl on a piece of cloth. Infrared imaging (红外成像) showed that Vermeer began making the work using brown and black paint. He then drew the girl’s outline in black lines before working from the green background to the foreground.
A statement on the museum’s website describes the woman as imaginary. “The painting is not a portrait (肖像), but a painting of an imaginary figure,” the website says.
8. What have the researchers found?
A. A master of art of the 17th century.
B. The way Vermeer drew the painting.
C. The identity of the girl in the painting.
D. A famous painting by Johannes Vermeer.
9. Where was the white paint produced?
A. In England. B. In Afghanistan.
C. In Mexico. D. In America.
10. Why was Abbie surprised?
A. The painting was in good condition.
B. Vermeer bought the paints abroad.
C. The blue pigment was more valuable than gold.
D. Valuable blue pigment was used a lot in the painting.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. High Technology Used to Test Paintings
B. Steps to Paint Girl with a Pearl Earring
C. Secrets of a Famous Painting Discovered
D. A Famous Painter Named Johannes Vermeer
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段The white that helps form the earring comes from lead from the Peak District in northern England. 可知,帮助形成耳环的白色来自英格兰北部Peak地区的铅。由此可知,白色颜料产自英国。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段Abbie Vandivere was leader of the research project. She expressed surprise that Vermeer used so much blue in the painting, noting, “This blue pigment was more valuable than gold in the 17th century.”,可知,Abbie Vandivere是这个研究项目的负责人。她对弗米尔在画作中使用了如此多的蓝色表示惊讶,她说:“这种蓝色颜料在17世纪比黄金还要珍贵。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。阅读文章,并结合第一段The researchers’ tests haven’t discovered the identity of the mysterious girl in the painting. But they have found out important information about how Vermeer did the painting.(研究人员的测试还没有发现画中神秘女孩的身份。但他们发现了关于Vermeer是如何作画的重要信息。)可知,科学家发现Johannes Vermeer名画《戴珍珠耳环的少女》的秘密。由此可知短文的最佳标题为“一幅名画的秘密被发现”。故选C。
D
People who drink a lot of sugary drinks have a high risk of developing cancer, researchers announced last week. However, the evidence cannot yet establish a direct connection between the two. Drinking sugary drinks has become more common worldwide in the last several decades. Sugar drinks are linked to the condition of being extremely overweight, which increases a person’s cancer risk.
The study looked at data from just over 100,000 French adults — 21 percent of them men and 79 percent women. The researchers noted how many sugary drinks each of them had, and followed them for up to nine years — between 2009 and 2018. The researchers measured their risk for all types of cancer, such as breast, colon and prostate cancers.
The researchers adjusted for other possible cancer risks in each individual, including age, sex, educational level, family history, smoking and physical activity levels. They found that a 100-milliliter increase in sugary drinks was linked to an 18 percent increased risk of overall cancer and a 22 percent increased risk of breast cancer.
The researchers looked at those who drank fruity juices and those who drank other sweet drinks. Both groups, they found, showed a higher risk of cancer overall. For prostate and colon cancers, no link was found. The researchers said this might have been because there were only a
limited number of cases of these cancers in the study group.
Amelia Lake, an expert at Britain’s Teesside University, said while this study doesn’t provide a clear cause and effect between sugar and cancer, it does add to the importance of efforts to reduce sugar intake. Many countries, including Britain, France and Mexico, have introduced taxes on sugar with the aim of improving people’s health.
12. What does the underlined word “establish” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Confirm. B. Deny. C. Spread. D. Affect.
13. What do we know about the study?
A. It took over ten years to carry out the research.
B. The subjects of the study are mainly British.
C. More evidence is needed to support the result.
D. Some countries are doubtful about the study.
14. What can we infer from the text?
A. Fruity juices are not related to cancer.
B. Amelia Lake doesn’t agree with the study.
C. Men are more likely to develop cancer.
D. Sugary drinks may increase the risk of cancers.
15. In which section of a magazine might the text appear?
A. Business. B. Health. C. Environment. D. Culture.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述研究发现含糖饮料与癌症之间可能存在关联
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词前一句People who drink a lot of sugary drinks have a high risk of developing cancer, researchers announced last week. 可知,研究人员上周宣布,饮用大量含糖饮料的人患癌症的风险很高。再结合划线单词所在句的转折副词however和the evidence cannot yet 可推知,划线单词“establish”的意思是确认,即还没有证据确认两者之间存在直接联系。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段However, the evidence cannot yet establish a direct connection
between the two.(然而,证据还不能确定两者之间的直接联系。)和倒数第二段The researchers said this might have been because there were only a limited number of cases of these cancers in the study group.(研究人员说,这可能是因为研究组中这些癌症的病例数量有限。)可知,需要更多的证据来支持这个结果——饮用大量含糖饮料的人患癌症的风险很高。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段They found that a 100-milliliter increase in sugary drinks was linked to an 18 percent increased risk of overall cancer and a 22 percent increased risk of breast cancer.可知,研究人员发现,含糖饮料每增加100毫升,患癌症的风险增加18%,患乳腺癌的风险增加22%。由此可推知,含糖饮料可能增加患癌症的风险。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一句People who drink a lot of sugary drinks have a high risk of developing cancer, researchers announced last week.可知,研究人员上周宣布,饮用大量含糖饮料的人患癌症的风险很高。由此可知,这篇文章谈论的是健康方面的问题,所以这篇文章很可能出现在杂志的健康版面。故选B。

【解析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了独臂男孩张家城和篮球运动之间的故事。
【41题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句。句意:张家城出生于2006年12月,5岁时在一次事故中失去了右臂,对于这样一个年幼的孩子来说,这是一场灾难。分析句子结构可知,空处需用关系词引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面的句子,关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以空处需用关系代词which引导定语从句。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,他很快就习惯了,学会了使用左臂和左手。空处需用副词作状语修饰动词短语got used to;quick的副词为quickly。故填quickly。
【43题详解】
考查时态。句意:起初,他觉得即使是最简单的动作也很难,但他从未灰心。根据后半句谓语动词lost可知,空处谓语动词需用一般过去时,表示过去发生的事情。故填found。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:每天放学后,不管天气如何,他都和一些朋友一起打篮球。和
某人一起用介词with;paly basketball with sb.和某人一起打篮球,固定短语。故填with。
【45题详解】
考查状语从句。句意同上。询问天气需用句型:What’s the weather like?,所以空处需用连接词what,no matter what引导让步状语从句,表示不管天气如何。故填what。
【46题详解】
考查可数名词的数。句意:到目前为止,他在家里和球场上的训练和比赛视频在社交媒体平台上已经被观看了约3200万次。此处time表示次数,可数名词,32 million后需接可数名词复数。故填times。
【47题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:短短几天,他发布的15个短视频就为他赢得了超过100万个赞。本句已有谓语动词have earned,所以空处需用非谓语动词作定语修饰名词videos ,空处动词post与名词videos之间是被动关系,所以空处需用过去分词posted作后置定语。故填posted。
【48题详解】
考查名词。句意:他在控球方面的出色表现在中国引起了广泛关注。分析句子结构可知,空处需用名词作主语;perform的名词为performance,特指控球方面的表现,所以空处名词需用单数。故填performance。
【49题详解】
考查被动语态和主谓一致。句意:更重要的是,他的技术上个月受到了一位NBA球星的称赞。根据时间状语last month可知,空处谓语动词需用一般过去时,因为被别人称赞,所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时的被动语态:was/were done,主语是复数his skills,所以空处be动词需用were。故填were praised。
【50题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:“将会有一个更大的平台让张家城发挥,”张的教练说,并补充说他有杰出的天赋。本句已有谓语动词says,所以空处需用非谓语动词作状语;空处动词say与主句主语Zhang’s coach之间是主动关系,所以空处需用现在分词adding作状语。故填adding。

【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了一个年轻商人刚开始做生意,租了一间漂亮的办公室。一天见一年轻人来办公室,为了显得自己很忙,这个商人假装打电话,结果年轻人告诉商人,他是来修电话的。
【详解】1.考查可数名词的数。不定冠词a后需接可数名词单数,所以此处需用businessman,表示一个年轻商人。故将businessmen改为 businessman。
2.考查比较级。句意:一个年轻的商人刚开始创业,在市中心的一栋大楼里租了一间漂亮的办公室。本句介绍
年轻人的基本情况,没有比较之意,所以此处无需用形容词的比较级。故去掉beautiful前的more。
3.考查介词。在办公室里需用介词in,介词on表示“在……之上”,不符合题意。故将on 改为 in。
4.考查形容词。句意:为了显得很忙,商人拿起电话假装有一笔大生意。appear“看起来,显得”,系动词,后需接形容词作表语。故将busily改为busy。
5.考查动词不定式。 pretend to do sth.假装做某事,固定搭配。故在have前加to。
6.考查时态。句意:他说话声音很大,有时敲桌子,发表各种各样的评论。根据knocked可知,此处谓语动词需用一般过去时,表示过去发生的事情。故将 speaks改为spoke。
7.考查连词。句意:他说话声音很大,有时敲桌子,发表各种各样的评论。根据句意可知,此处需用并列连词and连接几个并列的谓语,表示顺承和递进关系。故将but 改为 and。
8.考查时态。句意:那个年轻人一直站在那里。分析句子结构可知,本句谓语动词需用过去进行时态:was doing,表示过去那时正在进行的动作。故将stand 改为 standing。
9.考查代词。根据前文 The young man 可知,此处需用he指代前文的那个年轻人。故将she 改为he。
10.考查冠词。此处需用定冠词the特指那个电话。故将a改为the。
