Time magazine's tradition-"Person of the Year" originated in 1927, when it honored 25-year-old pilot Charles Lindbergh for the first nonstop solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean. Though the magazine has recognized several young people for their global influence, it has never given the
important honor to a teenager. But its 2019's "Person of The Year" is the16-year-old Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg.
Thunberg's rise to global reputation is even more surprising given that just over a year ago, she was a shy 15-year-old anxious about the increasing threat of climate change. In August 2018, tired of the "refusal" of world leaders to take action, the young girl started camping out in front of the Swedish Parliament every Friday with a sign that said: "School Strike for Climate."
The teen's act of protest soon drew public attention, inspiring kids and adults worldwide to take action. By September 2018, her weekly strike became a global climate change movement called "Fridays for the Future", with tens of thousands of students skipping school on this day to protest the inaction of the leaders of their respective countries. Her appeal for progress in environment protection also encouraged other young activists to begin their own climate change movements.
Varshini Prakash, co-founder of the US Youth-Led Sunrise Movement, says Thunberg "symbolizes the suffering, the frustration, the desperation, the anger-at some level, the hope-of many young people who won't even be of age to vote by the time their futures are doomed."'
The teenager, who has single-handedly helped bring climate change to the forefront of the global conversation, owes her success to her Asperger's syndrome(阿斯佩各综合征). She says, "I see the world in black and white, and I don't like compromising. If I were like everyone else, I would have continued on and not seen this crisis. Right now, we have entered a new decade-a decade that will define our future. And I've seen hope. but it does not come from the governments or companies. It cones from the people."
24. Why did Greta Thunberg camp out in front of Swedish Parliament every Friday?
A. To heighten public awareness of environmental protection.
B. To show her support for school strike for climate.
C. To condemn the government's inaction on climate change.
D. To win a global reputation as a teenager climate change activist.
25. Where can we find the direct influence of Greta Thunberg's behavior?
A. In Paragraph 2. C. In Paragraph 4. B. In Paragraph 3. D. In Paragraph 5.
26. What kind of girl is Greta Thunberg according to the passage?
A. positive and sensitive B. uncaring but reliable
C. selfish but intelligent D. brave and determined
27. We can learn from the passage that .
A. Charles Lindbergh is the first adolescent "Person of the Year" of Time magazine
B. on account of Asperger's syndrome, Greta Thunberg has suffered a lot
C. all governments haven't already taken effective measures to deal with climate change
D. Varshini Prakash thinks little of Thunberg and her strike for climate change
C
Strange ice rings in Siberia's Lake Baikal have puzzled scientists for decades, but now the mystery apparently has been solved. The answer: the rings are caused by warm, circular currents of water under the ice, called eddies(漩涡).
The eddies' strong currents melt the ice at the edge, but weaker ones keep the center frozen. "Results of our field surveys show that there are warm eddies that circulate in a clockwise(顺时针的)direction under the ice cover," said Alexei Kouraev, a hydrologist at the University of Toulouse, in a NASA statement. "In the eddy center, the ice does not melt-even though the water is warm -because the currents are weak," he said. "But on the eddy boundary, the currents are stronger, and warmer water leads to rapid melting."
During field work, Kouraev and his colleagues drilled holes near ice rings and set sensors capable of measuring the temperature and salinity(盐浓度)of the water to a depth of 700 feet. They found that the water in the eddies was 2 to 4 °F warmer than the surrounding water.
Most of the rings appear in March or April and have a width of about 3 to 4 miles-too big to recognize from the ground but easily seen from satellites above. Some rings were ephemeral while others lasted for weeks or even months.
Lake Baikal is the world's largest and deepest freshwater lake, according to Gizmodo. It's home to many varieties of fish not seen anywhere else in the world, and even a population of freshwater seals.
Researchers are still investigating what causes Baikal's eddies but think it's likely because of wind patterns, rivers that flow into the lake and the shape of the lake's coastline and bottom.
28. Which word can best replace the underlined word "ephemeral" in Paragraph 4?
A. steady B. current C. fundamental D. temporary
29. Why is the ice in the center of ice rings frozen while that at the edge is melted?
A. Because the center of ice rings is 2 to 4 °F warmer than the edge.
D. l3ccauc the currents in the center arc less powerful.
C. Because it i、too wide to be recognized or incited.
D. Because water in the center circulates in a clockwise direction.
30. Which of the following statements about Lake Baikal's eddies is TRUE?
A. They arc caused by hot and circular currents under the ice.
B. The ice in the center of Lake Baikal's eddies melts faster than that of the edge.
C. Researchers are uncertain about the exact reason of the eddies' existence.
D. Lake Beikal's eddies can only be measured at the depth of 700 feet.
31. What maybe the best title for the passage?
A. What's Causing the Giant Ice Rings in Siberia?
B. The Mystery of the Eddies' in the Lake Baikal Uncovered
C. The Largest and Deepest Freshwater Lake-Lake Baikal
D. Why Does the Edge of An Ice Ring Melt Faster?
D
Two years ago, aerospace manufacturer SpaceX shocked the world by landing its reusable booster(助推器)engine-the biggest and most costly part of the rocket used to power spacecraft into low orbit-on an autonomous drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean. Now, California-based startup Rocket Lab, has come up with an even more courageous idea: using parachutes and helicopters to capture the returning booster, or first stage as it is often called, in the air!
Rocket Lab's decision to avoid the propulsive or vertical(垂直的)landing used by SpaceX comes from its business model to keep its Electron rockets small and cost-effective. Standing just 57 feet tall, they arc designed to deliver smaller payloads(有效载重)of about 500 pounds for only $5 million a launch. In contrast, the Spaced Falcon 9 rocket measuring 229 feet tall can lift up to 50,000 pounds, costs about $62而Ilion a mission. "We're not in the business of building medium-sized launch vehicles but small ones for customers to get on orbit frequently," said Rocket Lab CEO Peter Beck.
Similar to other rockets, the Electron divides into two once it reaches outer space. While the top part, carrying the load, continues on to its final destination, the booster engine falls back to Earth. The company intends to fix a ballute-a parachute-like braking device-to quickly slow down the booster's supersonic speed(超声速)upon its return into the atmosphere. Once it slows down to
a reasonable pace, a helicopter will grab the rocket from midair and put it onto an awaiting ship to transport to the company's headquarters. Beck said: "The grand goal here is that if we can capture the vehicle in wonderful condition, in theory, we should be able to put it back on the pad, charge the batteries up, and go again."
The idea, still in the concept stage, will become one step closer to becoming a reality during Electron's next launch, scheduled for sometime in 3 years. "Engineers will carefully monitor the first stage as it returns, testing its ability to guide its landing with-he best way to slow down its speed," said Beck.
32. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that .
A. with a height of 229 feet, the Space X Falcon 9 rocket can deliver a load of 50,000 tons
B. small launch vehicles are designed by Rocket Lab to make its boosters economical
C. Space X once successfully captured its rocket before it landed on a ship in the Atlantic Ocean
D. an autonomous drone ship is used by Rocket Lab to transport the first stage
33. What distinguishes the Electron from other rockets?
A. It will be equipped with a ballute to reduce its landing speed.
B. Its booster engine falls back to the earth with the load.
C. It divides into two the instant it enters outer space.
D. It is loaded on a helicopter heading for the company's headquarters.
34. What will Rocket Lab's following research focus on?
A. Flow to capture the booster engine without damaging its function.
B. When to slow down the first stage as it returns.
C. Flow to cut the cost of each launch mission by calculation.
D. How to make its rockets smaller and more reusable.
35. In which column can you find this article in a pi二of newspaper?
A. Books & Art. B. Business. C. Science Fiction. D. Technology.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
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。
Nowadays, money has become intangible(不易度量的). Household shopping is done online; pocket money is stored in an electronic wallet rather than a piggy bank. Children rarely sec their
parents handling cash and they are spending online, too. 36
The answer is GoHenry, an app with separate versions for parents and children, now available both in America and Britain. 37 To use the app, parents need to sign up with their own bank accounts and pay a monthly fee for their kids. They can see what the child has bought and choose where the card can be used: in shops, online or at ATMs. They can also schedule pocket money and set tasks. 38
Children get debit cards(借记卡)carved with their name. 39 For example, they can decide to save ten dollars for a friend's birthday in four weeks' time. The app tells them how much to save each week to meet the goal.
Similar to a fitness app, GoHenry gives children feedback on their financial management and motivates them to spend better and save. A big benefit of such an app is that it inspires family conversations about money.
GoHenry has gained popularity since it entered the market. Parents sign up for different purposes. Some regard the subscription as an investment in their children's future. 40 Others uses it as a way for their children to learn to budget.
A. Some say they've been in debt and want their children to avoid that mistake when they grow up.
B. They can seta goal at the age of 12 to have $ 2,000 to buy a carat 18.
C. They can put money in saving pots, view their spending and balances, and set saving targets.
D. How, then, can children learn money's value and gain money-management skills?
E. When those arc marked as done, the child is paid the agreed amount.
F. The app helps children form good financial habits through real-world money management.
G. Though they no longer touch or hold money, they can still be taught to handle it well.

第二部分阅读理解
第一节
A
【语篇解读】本文是一则招聘广告,介绍了Boma International Hospitality College (BIHC)的概况、该校的校长职能、应聘者需具备的条件和必须递交的材料、联络方式和时间等。
21. 【答案】B
【解析】细节事实题。由理想候选人关键特征的第二点• Has 10+ years’ experience in an institution of higher learning可知,B项错误;由第一点和第三点可知,A、C、D三项正确。
22. 【答案】D
【解析】细节事实题。根据首段第二句可知,BIHC要培养的是the next generation of world-class hospitality professionals,而不仅是principals,A项将其目标培养的范围缩小了;根据广告最后写明的截止日期可知递交申请的邮件迟于April 24th, 2020则无效,所以B项错误;根据首段末句,BIHC致力于offering students state of the art study programs,这并非校长的职能,C项错误;D项信息体现在递交文件的第三点• Copies of relevant diplomas…。
23. 【答案】A
【解析】推理判断题。此题考查对文章写作目的进行推断,通过对BIHC进行简介,同时列举其校长的职责、应聘新校长需具备的条件及其必须递交的材料,附加联络方式和时间等内容,可以推断这是一则招聘广告。
B
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,主要介绍了美国《时代周刊》杂志“年度人物”的第一位青少年获得者瑞典女孩Greta Thunberg罢课抗议政府对气候变化的无动于衷,并促使该问题被提上全球重要议事日程的英勇事迹。
24. 【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段第二句…tired of the “refusal” of world leaders to take action, the young girl started camping out in front of the Swedish Parliament every Friday…可知,
Greta罢课旨在谴责瑞典政府对气候变化的不作为。A和D项都是她的行为所产生的结果,而非其初衷;B项的表达(her support for school strike)则偷梁换柱,应该是Greta的行为激励了很多人,得到了大范围的支持。
25. 【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。第三段的首尾句都清楚地阐明了Greta罢课行为的直接影响。
26. 【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。该题考查对人物性格特征的解读。A项错在sensitive;B项的uncaring应换成caring;C项的selfish应换成selfless;然而根据全文的讲述(尤其是最后一段),我们会强烈地感动于Greta的勇于斗争并坚持到底,因而D项最能体现出女孩的性格特点。
27. 【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。从第三段…with tens of thousands of students skipping school on this day to protest the inaction of the leaders of their respective countries和…also encouraged other young activists to begin their own climate change movements可知C项正确,这是部分否定。A项张冠李戴,根据第一段第二、三句,Greta Thunberg才是时代杂志“年度人物”的第一位青少年获得者;根据第五段第一句,B项的表述属于无中生有;从第四段Varshini Prakash的评论中可见其对Greta行为的评价不俗,D项错误。
C
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。西伯利亚贝加尔湖多年的冰环之谜终于被解开了,答案就在于冰面下方的暖流漩涡;科学家们对漩涡的成因也有了初步判断,正在进一步的探索中。
28. 【答案】D
【解析】词义猜测题。第四段该句中,while表对比,ephemeral与lasted for weeks or even months“持久的”意义相反,是“暂时的”;B项意为“现在的、目前的”,与“过去的”(past)和“将来的”(future)意义相对,所以不对。A、C则与while后文意义不能形成对比。
29. 【答案】B
【解析】细节事实题。考查因果关系。从第二段第三句In the eddy center, the ice does not melt—even though the water is warm—because the currents are weak可知B项正确,因为暖流不够急促,所以造成只有冰的边缘才能融解的现象;A项偷换概念,从第三段最后一句可知漩涡水温高于周边水温,不是冰环中心与边缘温差的比较,更不是题干原因;C
项同样表述有误,从第四段第一句可知其讲述的是Most of the rings,不是the ice in the center of ice rings,而且答非所问;D项表述不准确,从第二段第二句可知, water in the centre应改为warm eddies,并且不是冰环中心保持冻结的原因。
30. 【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。从文章最后一段可知C项正确。从最后一段第一句Researchers are still investigating what causes Baikal’s eddies…可知Baikal’s eddies的成因尚不明确,故A项错误,根据第一段第二句,A项可改为the rings are caused by warm, circular currents…;根据第二段第一句可知B项表述错误;根据第三段Kouraev and his colleagues … set sensors capable of measuring the temperature and salinityof the water to a depth of 700 feet可知D项偷换概念。
31. 【答案】A
【解析】标题归纳题。此文主要介绍了西伯利亚贝加尔湖多年的冰环之谜答案在于冰面下方的暖流漩涡,所以选A。解答漩涡之谜并非本文重点,只在最后提及而已,B项表述有误;C项的范围太大;D项范围缩小,不足以概括文章。
D
【语篇解读】本文是一则科技报道。文章主要介绍了航空航天制造商SpaceX的又一大胆构想——用降落伞和直升飞机来接住宇宙飞船返回地球的助推器。
32. 【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。通过第二段第一句Rocket Lab’s decision … comes from its business model to keep its Electron rockets small and cost-effective可见,实验室决定避免助推器之前的那种降落方式,要使火箭变小且成本降低。A项来自第二段第三句,属于直接信息而非推断;从第一段第一句SpaceX shocked the world by landing its reusable booster … on an autonomous drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean可知,C项表述有误;从第二句可知,D项信息张冠李戴,应该把an autonomous drone ship is used改为parachutes and helicopters are designed to be used。
33. 【答案】A
【解析】细节事实题。根据第三段第三句The company intends to fix a ballute… to quickly slow down the booster’s supersonic speed upon its return into the atmosphere可知,the Electron将装备一个气球式降落伞来降低其回到大气层的着陆速度。从第二句可知,B项要去掉with the load,属于张冠李戴;根据第一句可知C项信息正确,但这是相似点,答非所问;根据第四句的…a helicopter will grab the rocket from midair and put it onto an awaiting ship to transport to
the company’s headquarters可知D项的表述有误。
34. 【答案】A
【解析】推理判断题。第三段最后一句Rocket Lab的CEO Peter Beck所说的话,可以推断出其研究将要聚焦于一个宏大的目标,即如何完美地接住回归的助推器之后还能对其进行再利用。
35. 【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。考查文章出处的推断。这篇报道主要介绍了航空航天科技的又一新构想及其成为现实的可行性,理应出现在报纸的科技栏目。
第二节
【语篇解读】本文是一则说明文。GoHenry这款app自从进入应用市场就受到了家长的欢迎,因为它能有效帮助孩子们认知金钱价值并形成良好的理财习惯。
36. 【答案】D

39. 【答案】C
【解析】考查上下文衔接。根据前文的信息和后文的举例可以推断,此空要说的是孩子们能够如何利用这个app来理财。C项的They对应上文的children,与后文的they和them指代一致,句末set saving targets对应下文…how much to save each week to meet the goal。
40. 【答案】A
【解析】考查上下文衔接。前文Parents sign up for different purposes是主旨句,接着列举不同家长使用此app的不同目的:此空前文Some regard the subscription as an investment …,后文Others uses it as a way …,可知此空也是在列举目的。

第二节 书面表达
Dear Simon,
Hearing of your generous donation of masks and selfless voluntary service, we’re quite touched. On behalf of the Students’ UnionI am writing to express our deepest gratitude.
Affected by the new coronary pneumonia, our city was in urgent need of protective articles such as masks a few days earlier. Without the 50,000 masks you donated, medical workers would still be in dilemma. In addition, we especially appreciate your giving up the whole Spring Festival holiday and volunteeringto serve people in the community. It really reduces the volunteers’ workload and makes residents’ life easier.
Please accept oursincere thanks for your timely and selfless helpand do take great care of your own safety during this special period.Best wishes!(121 words)
Yours,
Li Hua

M: Can you help me? I’m trying to find Kerry Chang.
W: Um, no one by that name works here.
M: But I just got an e-mail from her yesterday. I have a copy of it right here. Oh, I got the name
wrong. It’s Jerry Chan.

W: Hello, I’m calling to reserve a table for five people at 7 p.m.
M: I’m sorry but we’re completely booked at that time. We have a table available at 8. How does that sound?
W: Well, I’ll check with the other people. I’ll call back later.
Text 3
M: I’m home!
W: Hi sweetie. Look! I’ve made apple pies, seafood salad and … What’s wrong? You don’t feel well? Or you don’t like the food?
M: To be honest, I’m not hungry. I just had a hamburger and fries. I didn’t know you were making something.
Text 4
W: How about this arm? Does it hurt?
M: Ow! Yes, it does.
W: I think you must have broken a bone in your arm. You’d better have an X-ray in the next room.

W: I hope to get a job and earn some money in the new year. How about you?
M: I’m going to take a course to further my education.

M: Can I exchange the computer for a new one? I purchased it here only a month ago and now it won’t even turn on.
W: I’m sorry, but I can’t replace it because you’ve kept it for a month.
M: Does that mean I can’t get my money back either?
W: I’m afraid so. But I’m sure we can repair that for you. Our technician can take a look at it in a minute.
M: But will it cost anything to fix it?
W: We’ll fix it at no charge to you.
M: All right. I’ll wait for your technician then.
Text 7
W: Darling, let’s make the wedding a simple one. I don’t want a big wedding, just something small.
M: Then we’ll have to limit the guest list. Maybe we should just invite our brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles.
W: But I have to invite my cousins and friends.
M: Don’t you have a lot of cousins and friends?
W: Yes, I do. But we’re very close. I have to invite them.
M: Well, then, we should have a bigger wedding. A middle-sized one would be OK.
W: You’re right. When are we going to get married? In April or in May?
M: We don’t have enough time for a spring wedding. We have to plan for a summer one. How about a garden wedding in August?
W: That’s great!

M: Tell me about the man you met on the weekend. What’s his name?
W: Oh, it’s Craig. He was alright, I guess. He works so hard — he is a reporter and he also volunteers at a youth center. I really admire him. But
M: But …?
W: He’s just too serious. I mean, all he wanted to talk about was politics and classical music. I really don’t like people who are too serious.
M: What about the other man you met before? Andy, the gym teacher, right? He sounded like a fun person.
W: Yeah. But he talked too much.
M: You went hiking with him, didn’t you?
W: Yeah. It turned out he’s not very patient. He wanted to get to the end of the track and I just wasn’t fast enough. That wasn’t much fun.
Text 9
W: I spoke to Professor Walker two days ago and I told him about the surveys that we were considering. He thought that the phone survey would be too expensive for us and the mail survey would take too long so we decided we should do the street one.
M: I think that’s right. If we do the street one then we can get the whole thing done in one day and we can get on with analyzing the results.
W: Yes. Now Professor Walker wanted to know about how big the survey should be?
M: Well, the ideal figure for a survey such as this should be about 1,000 people but we don’t have that much time. So, what about 600?
W: Still too many. Let’s say 500.
M: OK. And how many questions? Did Professor Walker give any suggestions?
W: He said we should have no more than ten or people get bored. Ten then?
M: I think even fewer. Eight.
W: I think three fewer again to make sure we can get the questions done quickly.
M: OK, I agree with that.
W: Next, Professor Walker asked where we were going to do the survey.
M: Emm Let’s have a discussion.
Text 10
W: Now, let me tell you a bit about the library. The library opens daily from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., as I told you earlier. The Reception operates only between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., but it operates until 6:30 p.m. on Fridays to give students more time to organize their book requirements for the weekend. The Reception is closed on Sundays. So you can’t borrow books that day. Undergraduate students are permitted to take out four books at any time and each book may be kept for a period of two weeks. Postgraduates may borrow six books at a time. Borrowing time can be lengthened by a period of one week per book, but the student needs to come into the library in person with the book to be renewed. We do not renew book borrowings over the phone or by e-mails. If you are late in returning any book, then you will be charged a fine of two pounds for every week that you are late. You won’t be able to take out any books until this fine is paid. This is not a method of earning money for the library but only what we have to do to ensure that all students have access to all the books that they will need.
