【原文】Nowadays, there is a heated discussion: Which is worthwhile, being a full-time worker or a stay-at-home mom? Some of our listeners,three moms from different countries share their opinions. Catherine is from China. She loves being a stay-at-home mom. Two years ago, at the beginning it was truly rough for her from being a sales manager to staying at home. Yet, she did not want her child to grow up with both parents at work. Now, her daughter is soon to be 3 years old. It's not for everyone but it is very rewarding in the long term. Sassy, a Canadian mom, thinks taking care of children is a temporary job, and children will grow up and leave. She realizes that women do not want to be dependent on anyone for basic food, clothes and shelter. It has been hard to work and take care of her kids but she makes it work. Cynthia comes from the US. Some days she thinks women shouldn't give up on their careers. And some days she longs for the lives staying at home or at least work part-time. She's the only one that supports the family, so she has no choice.

More than £5,500 has been raised after a plea (请愿) last Monday by a vet Dr Scott Miller. Scott said: “I would like to say a massive thank-you to Express readers from myself, from Australia and from the koalas. It’s amazing that people from across the world can see how significant the catastrophe has been. I do appreciate that people are being very supportive and reaching into their pockets.” An area, a third of the size of Britain is estimated to have been ravaged(毁坏) since the blazes(火灾) began in September.
On Friday a state of emergency was declared in the capital Canberra, with residents told to prepare to evacuate as fires on the outskirts (市郊) threatened to spread. A billion animals are feared to have died, including 25,000 koalas.
Last week Scott told how he had visited his homeland, helping to save wildlife on Kangaroo Island off the coast of Adelaide. While there he rescued a mother and a baby koala who were stuck in a tree. The pair were rushed to a field hospital on the island to be treated. The mum had severe burns to
- 27 -
her paws and was badly dehydrated(脱水的), while her baby son had an eye injury and was underweight.
Scott, who has appeared on ITV’s This Morning and BBC’s Blue Peter, said the mother is showing “great signs of improvement” and her wounds are starting to heal. The baby has undergone surgery to his eye and is “recovering from the anesthetic (麻药) and doing well”.
But he added: “The mother remains dehydrated so isn’t producing enough milk to feed the baby. At the moment they’re being housed severally but there is the hope that when the baby is a little stronger he will be able to be returned to his mother.”
Even after they recover, the pair will probably spend their lives in an enclosure while the bush takes years to recover. Scott said: “Sadly patients are still coming in thick and fast. Each of these animals is requiring to be housed and fed, and regular medical treatment to their injuries.”
24. What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?
A. Dr. Scott donated more than £5,500.
B. Residents were asked to move to Canberra.
C. Numerous animals might have lost their lives.
D. A large area of Britain has been badly damaged by the fire.

“While animals can’t pick out precise numbers, they can understand that more is more. Interestingly, we know now that numerical(数值的)competence is present on almost every branch of the animal tree of life,” says Andreas Nieder, a neurobiologist from the University of Tuebingen. “Different groups of animals obviously developed this trait(特点)independently from others and that strongly indicates that it has to be of adaptive value.”
Honeybees, for instance, can remember the number of landmarks they pass when searching for food in order to find their way back to the hive. The last common ancestor between honeybees and primates lived about 600 million years ago. But still, they evolved numerical competence that, in many respects, is comparable to vertebrate(脊椎动物的)numerical competence. Also, for example, male frogs sing “advertisement” calls to attract females. The females, listening for the complexity of their calls, choose the male that sings the most calls.
Wolves are more likely to hunt successfully if they have the right number of wolves in their pack
- 27 -
for the size of their prey(猎物): With prey like deer, only around six to eight wolves are needed, while hunting wild ox requires a pack of nine to thirteen. Their prey also uses this concept to protect themselves from predators — deer tend to live in large herds to reduce the chance of any individual becoming prey. So obviously they are assessing the number of individuals in their groups for their everyday life situations.
Despite these many examples of numerical competence in animals, this subject has not gotten many first-hand studies. “Many of these behavioral findings in the wild have usually been collected as by-products or accidental findings of other research questions,” says Nieder. He argues that more research needs to be done to fully understand the numerical competence.
28. The phenomenon of animals having their own numerical competence shows that .
A. all groups of animals are related in some ways
B. numerical competence must have a survival benefit
C. the intelligence of animals varies with different environments
D. animals’ numerical competence is determined by their adaptability
29. What role does numerical competence play in wolves’ hunting?
A. It helps them form hunting groups.
B. It gives them more options to hunt.
C. It makes them discover more prey.
D. It offers them new skills to hunt.
30. How does the author mainly develop this text?
A. By listing figures. B. By asking questions.
C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons.
31. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A biology textbook. B. A health magazine.
C. A travel brochure. D. A research paper.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。本文讲述最近一项研究,动物不仅具有理解数字的能力,而且这一能力还对它们的日常生活有着巨大的影响。
【28题详解】
- 27 -
推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Different groups of animals obviously developed this trait(特点)independently from others and that strongly indicates that it has to be of adaptive value.”以及第二段列举的例子可知,不同的动物群体明显地独立于其他动物发展出这种特殊的数字能力,这强烈地表明它必须具有适应性价值。由此可推知,动物具有的数字能力是为了生存需要。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Wolves are more likely to hunt successfully if they have the right number of wolves in their pack for the size of their prey(猎物): With prey like deer, only around six to eight wolves are needed, while hunting wild ox requires a pack of nine to thirteen.”可知,如果狼群中狼群的数量与猎物的大小相符,狼更有可能成功捕食:像鹿这样的猎物,只需要大约6到8只狼,而捕猎野牛则需要9到13只狼群。由此可知,数字能力在狼的狩猎中能帮助它们形成狩猎群体。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段Honeybees, for instance…; Also, for example, male frogs sing “advertisement” calls to attract females. ;第三段Wolves are more…和deer tend to live in large herds…可知,文章中作者是通过列举honeybees, frogs, wolves, deer这些例子来说明的。故选C。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。阅读文章,并根据最后一段Despite these many examples of numerical competence in animals, this subject has not gotten many first-hand studies. 可知,本文讲述最近一项研究,动物不仅具有理解数字的能力,而且这一能力还对它们的日常生活有着巨大的影响,所以本文应该选自一篇研究论文。故选D。

To address the plastic pollution troubling the world’s seas and waterways, Cornell University chemists have developed a new polymer (聚合物) that can degrade (降解) when exposed to ultraviolet (紫外线的) radiation, according to the research published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
“We have created a new plastic that has the mechanical properties required by commercial fishing gear. If it eventually gets lost in the water environment, this material can degrade on a realistic time scale,” said lead researcher Bryce Lipinski, professor of chemistry and chemical biology at
- 27 -
Cornell University. “This material could reduce persistent plastic accumulation in the environment.”
Commercial fishing contributes to about half of all floating plastic waste that ends up in the oceans. Fishing nets and ropes are primarily made from three kinds of polymers, none of which easily degrade. “While research of degradable plastics has received much attention in recent years,” Lipinski said, “obtaining a material with the mechanical strength comparable to commercial plastic remains a difficult challenge.”
Coates and his research team have spent the past 15 years developing the new plastic called isotactic polypropylene oxide, or iPPO. While its original discovery was in 1949, the mechanical strength of this material was unknown before this recent work. The high isotacticity and polymer chain length of their material makes it different from previous plastics and provides its mechanical strength.
Lipinski noted that while iPPO is stable in ordinary use, it eventually breaks down when exposed to UV light. The change in the plastic’s composition is evident in the laboratory, but “visually, it may not appear to have changed much during the process,” he said, “The rate of degradation is light intensity-dependent, but under their laboratory conditions, the polymer chain lengths degraded to a quarter of their original length after 30 days of exposure.”
Lipinski and other scientists want no trace of the polymer to be left in the environment. He notes there is precedent for the biodegradation of small chains of iPPO which could effectively make it disappear and ongoing efforts aim to prove this.
32. What is special about the new polymer?
A. It can reduce plastic consumption. B. It is expected to lower fishing costs.
C. It can degrade plastic waste in the sea water. D. It has been developed to solve plastic pollution.
33. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Fishing should be forbidden in the sea.
B. It requires great effort to invent the new plastic.
C. Nets and ropes are not the major pollution source.
D. Degradable plastics were not studied until recently.
34. What did the recent study find about iPPO?
A. Its original use. B. Its special intensity.
C Its mechanical strength. D. Its complex composition.
- 27 -
35. What is Lipinski’s attitude towards the future of iPPO?
A. Hopeful. B. Indifferent. C. Skeptical. D. Negative.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A
【解析】

【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段To address the plastic pollution troubling the world’s seas and waterways, Cornell University chemists have developed a new polymer (聚合物) that can degrade (降解) when exposed to ultraviolet (紫外线的) radiation, according to the research published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.可知,根据发表在《美国化学学会杂志》上的研究,为了解决困扰世界海洋和水道的塑料污染问题,康奈尔大学的化学家们开发了一种新的聚合物,这种聚合物暴露在紫外线辐射下可以降解。由此可知,这种新型聚合物的特别之处在于它是为了解决塑料污染而发展起来的。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“While research of degradable plastics has received much attention in recent years,” Lipinski said, “obtaining a material with the mechanical strength comparable to commercial plastic remains a difficult challenge.”可知,Lipinski说:“虽然近年来可降解塑料的研究受到了很大关注,但获得一种机械强度可与商业塑料媲美的材料仍然是一项艰巨的挑战。”由此推知,发明这种新塑料需要很大的努力。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中The high isotacticity and polymer chain length of their material makes it different from previous plastics and provides its mechanical strength.可知,其材料的高等度和聚合物链长度使其不同于以往的塑料,并提供了机械强度。由此可知,最近的研究发现了iPPO可以提供机械强度。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Lipinski and other scientists want no trace of the polymer to be left in the environment. He notes there is precedent for the biodegradation of small chains of iPPO which could effectively make it disappear and ongoing efforts aim to prove this.可知,Lipinski
- 27 -
和其他科学家不希望这种聚合物残留在环境中。他指出,iPPO小链的生物降解已有先例,可以有效地使其消失,而正在进行的努力旨在证明这一点。由此推知,Lipinski对iPPO未来的态度是充满希望的。故选A。

Leadership lessons from Singapore
The COVID-19 outbreak is causing alarm around the world, but here in Singapore, the small island country has managed to mostly contain the spread quite rapidly. ___36___
Learning from the past -- ready for the future. “Here is your key card, office key and personal thermometer,” said the university administrator when I started teaching many years ago. I was puzzled with the thermometer as a standard-issue device for every employee. ___37___ Since I was not here during the 2003 SARS outbreak, I never appreciated the importance of having a thermometer in my desk drawer, but now I use it twice daily.
___38___ “Every instructor must complete the training for delivering their courses online in case of emergency,” the university told us over seven years ago. It seemed a bit unnecessary at the time. But all of us completed the training -- and were retested each semester. Who would have thought that in 2020 we would need to shift more than 1,000 courses online with less than 12 hours' notice! That could not have been accomplished without the previous efforts.
Clarifying expectations -- universal diligence. “Stop right there! Give me 10 feet and then you can come by,” says my colleague as I meet her in the common hallway. ___39___ Large gatherings are canceled and restaurants are empty as we all spend more time at home to avoid interactions with others. To enter a mall, restaurant or any building on our campus, you must pass a temperature screening and often record your presence.
___40___ In spite of the global crisis, classes and university operations have continued without disruption.
A. The virus is hard to contain.
B. Planning alternatives -- the ability to move quickly.
C. As a witness, I must share a few leadership lessons.
D. The nation’s readiness for emergencies helps to fight the virus.
E. How often do we really take lessons from the past to protect our future?
- 27 -
F. In fact, I once joked that they should also give us a snorkel(水肺) in case of tsunamis.
G. We are still friends, but it is our responsibility to avoid unnecessary human contact.

You may often see young people in Asian countries wear their masks in public. What makes them do so?
Asians often wear face masks to prevent one’s own germs or sickness from spreading in public places. In many Asian countries, people value collectivism, ___56___ means they will try their best to make a ___57___(contribute) to their group. Amid the novel coronavirus outbreak, Asians will wear masks to prevent both ___58___(they) and others from being infected which will ultimately benefit the whole group.
Apart from physical protection, masks___59___(evolve) into social firewalls among young people in Asian countries already as well.
Young people are more concerned about their privacy than their parents and grandparents. In
- 27 -
public such as on a crowded subway, ___60___ (hide) their faces with masks can sometimes help them gain some privacy. For some young girls, wearing masks can give them confidence and ___61___ sense of security when they don’t have enough time to do makeup.
___62___this reason, wearing masks has become a fashion trend among young people. They wear them, along with audio headsets, to signal a lack of desire ___63___ (communicate) with those around them, according to Quartz.
Not only ___64___ (use) to prevent the spread of disease, masks have indeed made their way into the mainstream and are here to stay in Asian ____65____ (country).

57. contribution
58. themselves
59. have evolved
60. hiding 61. a
62. For 63. to communicate
64. used 65. countries
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲了亚洲的年轻人戴口罩是为了防止疾病传播、保护隐私以及带来安全感等。
【56题详解】
考查定语从句。分析句子结构,___1___ means they will try their best to make a ___2___(contribute) to their group.是一个非限制性定语从句,修饰整个主句内容,关系词在从句中作主语,that不能引导非限制性定语从句,用which引导该从句,所以填which。
【57题详解】
考查名词。该空作make的宾语,用名词,前面有不定冠词修饰,用名词单数,所以填contribution。
【58题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:在新型冠状病毒爆发中,亚洲人将戴上口罩,防止他们自己和其他人被感染,这最终将使整个群体受益。表示“他们自己”,所以填反身代词themselves。
【59题详解】
考查时态。根据already,可知这里表示过去的动作或状态持续到现在,用现在完成时,masks是复数,谓语动词用复数,所以填have evolved。
- 27 -
【60题详解】
考查动名词。分析句子结构,___5___ (hide) their faces with masks作句子主语,用动名词,所以填hiding。
【61题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:对于一些年轻女孩来说,当她们没有足够的时间化妆时,戴口罩可以给她们信心和安全感。a sense of……的感觉,该短语是固定短语,所以填a。
【62题详解】
考查固定短语。for this reason,该短语是固定短语,句子第一个单词首字母大写,所以填For。
【63题详解】
考查不定式。 a desire to do sth.做某事的愿望, 此处用不定式作定语,所以填to communicate。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构,Not only ___9___ (use) to prevent the spread of disease作状语,use与其逻辑主语masks之间是被动关系,用过去分词,所以填used。
【65题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:口罩不仅被用来防止疾病的传播,而且已经成为主流,并在亚洲国家流行开来。“亚洲国家”是复数意义,用名词复数,所以填countries。

Dear Jack,
Glad to know that you are so keen on the Chinese teahouse, I am writing to give you some relevant information about it.
Teahouses perfectly reflect our Chinese tea culture and people’s leisure lives. As you can see, we Chinese gather in teahouses not only to enjoy tea but to socialize with our friends. Originating from the Western Jin Dynasty, the teahouse became in the Song Dynasty a fashionable social event spreading all over the country. Today it takes on a new look under the influence of the western culture.
So why not come to join me and have a taste in a teahouse? Looking forward to your coming.

“I will have revenge on him, and make him regret what he did to me,” said Philip to himself, his face red with anger. Stephen, who happened at that moment to walk past and hear him talking to himself.
“Who is that you want to take revenge on?” asked Stephen. Philip looked at his friend and said,
- 27 -
“You remember my new ball given by my father? Look! It is punctured! It was farmer Robinson’s son who did this!”
Stephen asked him why young Robinson had ruined it. “I was walking and kicking my ball.” Philip replied, “By accident, when I was opposite the gate, my ball bumped over a bucket of water left in the pathway by him.”
“He came up and began to yell at me. I assured him that what I had done was an accident, and that I was terribly sorry for it. I also offered to fetch another bucket of water for him. But despite all I had said, he took a nail out of his pocket and twisted it into the ball, as you see. I will make him pay for this.”
“Honestly speaking,” said Stephen, “he is already punished for what he has done, because nobody likes him and he often walks around alone. He is just a lonely and miserable boy. This will be enough revenge for you.”
“But the ball is my favorite gift and I enjoy playing with it so much…” murmured Philip.
“Now Philip,” said Stephen, “I think you can act better than him in terms of getting revenge. I will tell you what happened to him not long ago.”
“A while ago he saw a bee hovering about a flower. He caught the bee and was going to pull off its wings for fun. The bee, of course, stung him. The pain made him so angry that, like you, he decided to get revenge. He got a stick, and pressed it into the beehive (蜂巢).”
“Immediately the whole swarm of bees flew out and stung him so badly that he had to spend a few days in bed.”
“So you see, he was not very successful in getting revenge. What if he could act better and forgive the bee for stinging him?” asked Stephen.
“I must say,” replied Philip, “that your advice seems very good”.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A few days afterward, Philip saw this young Robinson fall as he was carrying home a heavy log of wood.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 “I must say,” replied Philip, “that your advice seems very good. So come with me please, and I will tell my father what happened to the ball, and I think he will not be angry with me.” They went, and Philip told his father what had happened. He thanked Stephen for the good advice he had given his son, and promised Philip to give him another ball exactly the same as the first.
A few days afterwards, Philip saw this young Robinson fall as he was carrying home a heavy log of wood. It was too heavy for him to lift up again. Philip ran to him, and helped him to put it on his shoulder again. The boy was embarrassed to be treated so kindly when he had ruined Philip’s ball the week before! He said that he was very sorry for his behavior. Philip went home quite happy. “This,” he said is the best revenge I could take, in returning good for bad.”
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知,Philip因为农夫Robinson的儿子用钉子刺穿了自己新买的球而非常生气,扬言要报复他。Stephen劝他说没有人喜欢Robinson的儿子,他经常一个人走来走去。他只是一个孤独可怜的男孩。Stephen还告诉Philip,几天前Robinson的儿子被蜜蜂蛰了,就去打蜜蜂巢,结果被一大群蜜蜂蛰了,不得不在床上躺了几天的事情。
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:“我得说,” Philip回答说,“你的建议似乎很好。”所以后文应该是讲述Philip放弃了报复的计划,告诉了父亲实情,Philip的父亲感谢Stephen给他儿子的忠告,答应Philip再给他买一个球,和第一个一模一样的。第二段开头是:几天后,Philip看到Robinson的儿子在把一根沉重的木头搬回家时摔倒了。本段应该写Philip帮助了Robinson的儿子,Robinson的儿子为自己几天前的行为道了歉,Philip高高兴兴地回了家,认为以德报怨就是最好的报复。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:be angry with;good advice;the same as;too…to…;embarrassed等高级词汇;He said that he was very sorry for his behavior.宾语从句等高级句式。
