(表示能力、功能)能,会;2. (表示推测)可能,可能会;3.(表示 允许,请求)可以;4.(表示客观可能性)有时会。 第三节:完形填空(共 20 小题:每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分) The Homeless Hero For many, finding an unattended wallet filled with £400 in cash would be a source(来源)of temptation(诱惑).

However, considering the increasing competitiveness of universities to attract more and more applicants, many schools now offer extra benefits to be enjoyed by all of their students. Here are some of the coolest: University of Missouri When you think of a campus gym, you probably picture a room equipped with old weights and out-of-date machines. However, at the University of Missouri, you can enjoy one of the best campus fitness centers in the country. It features an “indoor beach” complete with a waterfall and a lazy river, as well as a full-service spa. Even if you don’t normally enjoy working out, Missouri’s fitness center will give you a reason to go to the gym. High Point University If you see yourself quickly tired of dining hall food—something that happens to almost all of us—High Point University in North Carolina has a great option for you: a private steakhouse for students. It’s a first-class restaurant, and, best of all, you don’t have to pay for the meal out of your own pocket. You can use your dining dollars instead. Seton Hall University If you’re stressing out about the extra cost of technology when you start college, Seton Hall has great news for you: all freshmen are given free laptops through the university’s Mobile Computing Program. As a freshman, you’ll receive a laptop already set up with all of the software that you’ll need as a student. Then, after two years, you’ll receive a new and updated laptop designed to carry to through until after you graduate. New York University If you’re a fan of museums, NYU(New York University) is the perfect university for you: not only are you located in the heart of a city featuring some of the best museums in the world, but the university will even provide you with free admission to many of them. You can take advantage of visiting free museums at any time you want—and you’ll never be bored on the weekends. 36. What can we learn from Paragraph1? A. It is hard to be admitted to a university. B.

"Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say. In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose. Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder." Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts. The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters.

D 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。文章通过介绍 Richter 夫妇从接触一个名为 Imagination Library 的项目到成 立自己的基金会的历程并找到生活的真正价值 【41 题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段 he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.可知,他得知他需要做心脏手术。 这类新闻引发了人们对人生目标的严肃思考。所以是他的健康问题使他严肃思考生活的意 义。故选 A 项。 【42 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段 I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire 可知,我想,也许琳达和我退休后可以做些类似的事情。所以作者手术后不久接触到 Imagination Library 的宣传册决定退休后从事这样的事业。故选 B 项。 【43 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段 a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee. 可知,多莉 · 帕顿的基金会发起了一个项目,在歌手的家乡田纳西州的塞维尔,这个项目 每个月都会给从出生到五岁的孩子们邮寄一本书。所以 Dollly Parton 是一个出生在田纳西州 的歌手。故选 C 项。 【44 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段 The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters.可知,这 些书的质量是 Richters 非常关心的。所以里希特夫夫妇去多莱伍德是为了看看这些书的质量 好不好。故选 D 项。 【45 题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段 The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”可知,希特夫夫妇每月花 400 美元给 200 个孩子寄书。“有些人坐在那 里等死,”蒂姆说。“其他人在离世的时候还在忙碌。由此判断出,他认为他的努力是值得 的。故选 D 项。 C Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long-hour work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or hobbies. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them. Six percent of the workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year. One couple who downshifted are Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she worked for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Nearly twice a month Daniel had to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by. Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have one here,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. it's taken some time getting used to, but it's been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it's made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.” Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I'm not really a country girl, but I suppose I'm gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.” 46. What do the first two paragraphs tell us? A. People seldom work long hours to make money. B. People hardly buy more things than necessary. C. People are sure everything they own is in the right place. D. People realized there is more to life than just making money. 47. When Daniel was a reporter he _____. A. was well paid B. disliked his job C. missed his children D. lived in central London. 48. Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm ______. A. was easy to organize B. has improved family life C. was extremely expensive D. has been a total success 49. What does the underlined "it" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Child-caring B. Liz’s advice C. Downshifting D. Liz' job. 50. The underlined word "downshifting" in the second paragraph means ____. A. repairing your car by yourself B. spending money carefully C. moving out to the countryside to live a simple and better life D. living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week 【答案】46. D 47. A 48. B 49. C 50. C 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。主要说明了越来越的人意识到生活不仅仅是赚钱,许多人正在转向其他的 生活方式,“放慢生活节奏”就是其中之一。同时以 Daniel 和 Liz 夫妇为例,说明了 “downshifting”生活方式的含义是搬到乡下并过上简单美好的生活。 【46 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中 They feel that the long-hour work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or hobbies. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them.可知他们觉 得,为了赚更多钱买更多东西的长时间工作文化正在吞噬他们的生活,留给他们的时间和精 力很少用于家庭或爱好。许多人正在转向其他的生活方式,“放慢生活节奏”就是其中之一。 同时第二段列举了 Daniel 和 Liz 夫妇开始由繁忙的生活方式转向了降薪来放慢生活节奏,由 此判断出,前两段告诉了我们人们意识到生活不仅仅是赚钱。故选 D。 【47 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中 They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.可知他们俩都挣了一大笔钱,但开始觉得日子过得飞快。由此可知, Daniel 当记者时,工资很高。故选 A。 【48 题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中 However, I think it's made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.可知然而,我认为这让我们的家庭更强大了,孩子们也更快乐了。 以及最后一段中 One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children.可知不过, 有一件事我确实喜欢,那就是能多看看我的孩子。由此可知,Daniel 和 Liz 都认为搬到农场 改善了家庭生活。故选 B。 【49 题详解】 词义猜测题。结合上文可知 Daniel 和 Liz 搬到了农场,选择了 downshifting 的生活方式,上 文 One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children.(不过,有一件事我确实 喜欢,那就是能多看看我的孩子)提到了 Liz 对于 downshifting 后搬到农场的生活让她能多看 到自己的孩子,由此可知她此处建议其他想要做同样的事情的人,对于 downshifting 不要想 太多,否则你可能根本就不会去做。所以 it 指代“downshifting”。故选 C。 【50 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据后文对于 Daniel 和 Liz 夫妇的描述可知,Daniel 和 Liz 夫妇过去在伦敦市 中心工作,虽然收入不错,但是只能把两个孩子留给保姆照看,后来他们选择了 downshifting 搬到了农场生活,这一举动使得他们的家庭生活得到了改善,故可知 downshifting 意思是搬 去乡下并过上简单美好的生活。故选 C。 D One of the greatest sources of unhappiness,in my experience,is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are. When we see something we don’t like,we wish it could be different.We cry out for something better.That may be human nature,or perhaps it’s something ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture.The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different.However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place.We’ve judged it as bad,rather than saying, “It's not bad or good,and it just is it.” In one of my books,I said“You should expect people to mess up and expect things to go differently than you planned”.Some readers said it's too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong.However, it’s only negative if you see it as negative and judge it as bad.Instead,you could accept it as the way the world works and try to understand why that is. This can be applied to whatever you do:how other people act at work,how politics works and how depressing the news media can be.Accept these things as they are,and try to understand why they’re that way.It will save you a lot of sadness,because you’ll no longer say,“Oh.I wish bad things didn’t happen!’’ Does it mean you can never change things? Not at a11.But change things not because you can’t accept things as they are,but because you enjoy the process of changing,learning and growing. Can we make this world a better place? You can say that you’11 continue to try to do things to help others,to grow as a person,to make a difference in this world.That’s the correct path you choose to take,because you enjoy that path.Therefore,when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference,try a different approach:accept,and understand.It might lead to some interesting results. 51. The author believes that we feel unhappy maybe because ___________. A. it is our natural emotion in the life B. culture asks us to be different from others C. everyone has their own opinions on things D. we dislike something in the beginning 52. Some readers think the words in the author’s book is too ______________. A. depressing B. frightening C. delighting D. idealistic 53. In Paragraph 4,the underlined word "it" refers to ____________. A. acting well at work and in politics B. feeling depressed for the news media C. accepting and understanding what has happened D. saying something negative when bad things come 54. In the last paragraph,you are advised _____________. A. to help others and make a difference B. to enjoy what you have to do in the work C. to judge yourself and make a wish for you D. to try a new way when making the world better 55. What is the main theme of the passage? A. Expecting things to be different gives us hope. B. Accepting can make our life happier and better. C. Traditional culture becomes root of unhappiness. D. Judging good or bad is important for our world. 【答案】51. D 52. A 53. C 54. D 55. B 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。人们为什么会不快乐呢?在作者看来,人们不快乐的根源是不愿意接受事 物本来的样子,总想试图把它们改变成自己喜欢的样子。在文中作者建议人们要学会去接受、 理解事物本来的面貌,本质,然后就会有意想不到的收获。 【51 题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段 The root of the unhappiness isn’t necessarily that we want things to be different.However, it’s that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place.可知,不快乐的 根源并不一定是我们希望事情有所不同。然而,我们一开始就决定不去喜欢它。所以作者认 为,我们感到不快乐可能是因为我们一开始就不喜欢某样东西。故选 D。 【52 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段 Some readers said it's too sorrowful to expect things to go wrong.可知 一些读者认为作者的话太过消沉,悲观。故选 A。 【53 题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上文 Accept these things as they are,and try to understand why they’re that way 可知,接受事物本来的样子,尽量去理解它们为什么会是那样子,所以它会为你省去很 多悲伤。故根据上下文语境可以判断出 it 指“接受和理解已经发生的事情”。故选 C。 【54 题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章的末段末句 when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach:accept,and understand.It might lead to some interesting results 可知, 当你发现自己在判断和期望不同时,尝试一种不同的方法:接受,理解。这可能会导致一些 有趣的结果。作者建议人们如果让事情有所改观就要去尝试新的方法,故选 D。 【55 题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开头提出人们不快乐的根源是不愿意接受事物本来的样子,然后进一步分 析说明,最后建议人们为了快乐就要学会接受、理解。所以短文的主旨为“接受可以让我们 的生活越来越好”。故选 B。 第Ⅱ卷(共 35 分) 注意事项: 1.用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。 2.本卷共 6 小题,共 35 分。 第三部分:写作 第一节:阅读表达(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分) 阅读表达 When I started my medical career, I worked 80 to 100 hours a week as a family doctor in a small town in Idaho. Sleep was an afterthought. It was the early 1990s and I bought a coffee machine, and served up 4 to 5 cups of coffee a day. I lived an extremely tiring life and pushed my way through on adrenalin (肾上腺素). I learned how to keep myself awake despite my exhaustion. I didn’t have a stop button. I lived on adrenalin until my adrenalin ran out and I suddenly got very ill. Every system in my body broke down. I didn’t choose to change my life-my body chose for me. That is when I had to learn to rebuild my life and my energy and respect the way my body worked. I learned the hard lesson that my body was a biological organism that needed care. I realized that if I wanted to enjoy my life, I would have to learn the care and feeding instructions needed for being a healthy woman. Unfortunately, many suffer the same fate I did. We have all been given a beautiful creation--- our physical body. But none of us were born with an operating manual or instruction book. How do we make it feel good, take care of it, make it run like it was designed--- balanced and in perfect rhythm? Most of us don’t learn how to manage our energy and bodies well. We use drugs, sugar, caffeine and alcohol to manage our energy and moods. Now it’s time to make a change for the benefit of your health. If you don’t, your health will suffer. Don’t burn the candle on both ends. Without health, you can do nothing. 56. Why did the author use to drink 4 to 5 cups of coffee a day? (no more than 10 words) 57. What did the author learn from her sudden illness? (No more than 10 words) 58. How do you understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2? (No more than 10 words) 59. How do many people manage their energy and moods? (No more than 10 words) 60. What lesson can you learn from the story? (No more than 20 words) 【答案】56. To keep her awake so as to do her work./ To keep her awake despite her exhaustion. 57. Her body needed care and attention. 58. Her illness forced her to make a change. 59. By using drugs, sugar, caffeine and alcohol. 60. We should take good care of our body, no matter what we are doing, or our health will suffer. (Open) 【解析】 这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章记叙了作者刚开始行医时,每周工作 80 到 100 个小时,每天喝 4 到 5 杯咖啡,过着极度疲劳的生活。直到后来作者突然病得很重,才让作者意识到自己的 身体也是需要照顾和关心的。作者也意识到我们大多数人都没有学会如何管理好自己的精力 和身体,指出现在是时候为了你的健康做出改变了。 【56 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中 It was the early 1990s and I bought a coffee machine, and served up 4 to 5 cups of coffee a day. I lived an extremely tiring life and pushed my way through on adrenalin.可知那是在 20 世纪 90 年代初,我买了一台咖啡机,每天供应 4 到 5 杯咖啡。我过 着极度疲劳的生活,靠肾上腺素勉强度日。以及第二段第一句 I learned how to keep myself awake despite my exhaustion.可知我学会了如何在疲惫的时候保持清醒。由此可知,作者过去 每天要喝 4 到 5 杯咖啡为了让她保持清醒以便做她的工作。或尽管她很累,还是要保持清醒。 故答 To keep her awake so as to do her work./ To keep her awake despite her exhaustion. 【57 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中 I learned the hard lesson that my body was a biological organism that needed care.可知我得到了一个惨痛的教训:我的身体是一个需要照顾的生物有机体。由此可 知,作者从她的突然生病中学到了她的身体需要照顾和关心。故答 Her body needed care and attention. 【58 题详解】 句意猜测题。根据划线句子后文 That is when I had to learn to rebuild my life and my energy and respect the way my body worked.可知那时我必须学会重建我的生活和恢复我的体能,并尊重 我身体的运作方式。由此可知,这次生病让作者意识到自己的身体需要照顾,并由此迫使她 做出改变。故划线句子意思为“她的病迫使她做出改变”。故答 Her illness forced her to make a change. 【59 题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句 We use drugs, sugar, caffeine and alcohol to manage our energy and moods.可知我们使用药物、糖、咖啡因和酒精来控制我们的能量和情绪。由此可 知,许多人通过使用毒品,糖,咖啡因和酒精来管理他们的精力和情绪。故答 By using drugs, sugar, caffeine and alcohol. 【60 题详解】 本题为开放性题目,言之有理即可。可结合文章主要内容为强调要照顾和关心自己的身体来 回答“不管我们在做什么,我们应该好好照顾我们的身体,否则我们的健康会受到影响。” 故答 We should take good care of our body, no matter what we are doing, or our health will suffer. 第二节:书面表达(满分 25 分) 61. 假设你是李津,得知 2020 年女排亚俱杯(Asian Women’s Volleyball Club Championship) 将于 1 月 20 日至 28 日在天津举行。请你写信给在天津某国际学校的英国朋友 Chris,内容 包括: (1)告诉 Chris 天津女排将代表中国参加比赛; (2)解释值得学习的女排精神; (3)邀请他一起去观看比赛。 注意: (1)词数不少于 100; (2)可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯; (3)开头已为你写好,不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, How is everything going? _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Chris, How is everything going?
