In December 2018, Cheré Bautista had to face a fear that she had worried about since she was a teen. Then 36, Bautista had spent months searching for work and had finally been offered a job in the call center of a Seattle-area hospital. But at the last minute, the offer was rescinded due to something Bautista had kept secret for twenty years: She had never graduated from high school.
“That was the lowest point in my life,” recalls Bautista. She has come a long way since her childhood. Raised by a single dad, she often had to take care of herself. At 16, she dropped out of high school to work and support herself. Gradually, Bautista built a life. By 2005, she had worked at a local bank.
With each passing year, however, Bautista felt her career options (职业选择) narrowing. After nearly ten years in banking, she was getting burned out. She dreamed of becoming an accountant (会计), but knew that required a diploma (文凭). Meanwhile, her incomplete education made her feel uncomfortable socially.
When the hospital call center job fell through, Bautista knew she’d reached a breaking point. “At that moment, it was just, ‘I have to fix this.’”
After searching for local classes, Bautista came across a preparatory program on the Hopelink website. She’d known it ran a food bank, but was unaware Hope link also offered free adult education programs.
Though Bautista was nervous about being in class, she refused to let that fear get in the way. “She always asked questions and was really open about what she understood and didn’t understand,” says Debbie Margolis, a teacher of Hopelink.
Hopelink helped Bautista prepare for her GED test, which awards the equivalent of a high school diploma. She passed the test in six months in June 2019. Even today, Bautista recalls the relief she felt—“Just the weight lifting off my shoulders: I finally get this done.”
4. What does the underlined word “rescinded” mean in the first paragraph?
A. Limited. B. Delivered. C. Identified. D. Cancelled.
5. What can we learn about Bautista from paragraph 2?
A. She missed her childhood. B. She suffered many hardships.
C. She supported a big family. D. She lived with her students.
6. One of the purposes of Hopelink is to ________.
A. teach the locals how to save food B. design GED tests for young students
C. provide adults with education courses D. help parents see their own strengths
7. Which of the following best describes Bautista?
A. Determined. B. Demanding. C. Humorous. D. Generous.
C
Ecologists Dr. Matt Holden, Dr. Andrew Rogers and Dr. Russell Yong observed their share house and its backyard in 2020, and discovered 1,150 unique species of animals and plants over a 12-month period.
“We asked a large number of ecologists and conservation scientists how many species they’d expect to find in this setting and they said it could be only 200,”Dr. Holden said. “But after 60 days of surveying, we’d already discovered 777 species. It shows suburban (郊区的) houses and apartments could have far more biodiversity (生物多样性) than ever imagined, especially when it comes to insects.”
The idea of the species count was born when Dr. Rogers went to clean spider’s webs (蜘蛛网) in his room and wondered how many spiders were in the house. “The three of us soon worked out a plan to check the house and backyard in search of other insects that lived alongside us,” Dr. Holden said.
The survey showed richly biodiverse creatures, including 436 moth and butterfly species, 56 different spiders, and 56 birds. The researchers were also surprised to discover three species not previously recorded in Australia’s leading biodiversity database. “The house was a rich ecosystem of species interacting—we discovered unexpectedly a kind of moth, which spends its whole time feeding inside the waste of other animals before turning into an adult,” Dr. Holden said.
Homes across all suburban areas could play host to similar biodiversity. “It depends on how people tend to their homes and gardens—keeping low maintenance trees and flowers and preventing chemicals used for killing insects will lead to the rising number of living creatures,” Dr. Holden said. “You don’t have to go travelling to connect with Australia’s different species of creatures. Just look in your own backyard.”
8. How many species did the three housemates discover in 12 months?
A. 200. B. 436. C. 700. D. 1, 150.
9. What made Dr. Rogers get the idea of the species count?
A. Cleaning his room. B. Observing the spiders.
C. A talk with his friend. D. A mass of dead insects.
10. Which statement will Dr. Holden probably agree with?
A. Australia has seen a jump in living creatures. B. Suburban backyards are home to diverse species.
C. Wildlife tourism threatens animals and plants. D. People should keep their gardens free of insects.
11. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A children’s story. B. A museum guide.
C. A science magazine. D. A health report.
D
Microplastics (微塑料) pollute drinking water. Data now suggest all of us have microplastics in our bodies. Some plastics are harmful.
Menake Piyasena, a professor at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, and his team worked on a new process. In the past, Piyasena used ultrasound (超声波) to separate microbes and other cells from water. He recalls thinking: “What if we can use the same method to concentrate on microplastics?”
The researchers send polluted water down a tube. The tube’s water flows past a transducer, which turns electrical energy into sound energy. It makes ultrasound waves that travel from one side of the tube to the other. When they hit microplastics, these waves exert(施加)a force on the plastic bits.
What happens next depends on the size of those plastic bits. Ones less than about 180micrometers across will move to the center of the flow. Larger ones will interact with each other and create an additional force. This sends those larger ones toward the other end of flowing water.
The ultrasound treatment removed about four in every five plastic bits from the water. It took about 90 minutes to clean one liter. It cost only about 10 cents to do that. “We think our approach will be cost-effective and simple,” Piyasena says.
“Microplastics are a problem worldwide” says a research chemist Souhail Al-Abed, who works for the US Environmental Protection Agency. In his opinion, this tech is not yet ready to be rolled out for widespread use. “I’d like to express praise for Piyasena’s team that are conducting this research,” Al-Abed adds. “Research does not have all the answers on day 1 or day 2 or day 100. But continuing work by these researchers may find a good solution for the future.”
12. Why did the researchers turn to ultrasound in the new study?
A. They proved it was harmless to humans.
B. They managed to apply it to other studies.
C. It produced enough energy to heat water.
D. It enabled them to focus on the experiment.
13. What can we infer about the water treatment?
A. It might waste plenty of water.
B. It will serve every family soon.
C. It could lead to safer drinking water.
D. It has been the most effective approach.
14. What is Al-Abed’s attitude to Piyasena’s research?
A. Hopeless. B. Unclear. C. Concerned. D. Positive.
15. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Ultrasound Helps Remove Microplastics in Water
B. Scientists Have Found the Cause of Water Pollution
C Efforts Are Made to Turn Microplastics into Energy
D. Plastics Have a Bad Influence on Our Everyday Life

In December 2018 Cheré Bautista had to face a fear that she had worried about since she was a teen. Then 36, Bautista had spent months searching for work and had finally been offered a job in the call center of a Seattle-area hospital. But at the last minute, the offer was rescinded due to something Bautista had kept secret for twenty years: She had never graduated from high school.
“That was the lowest point in my life,” recalls Bautista. She has come a long way since her childhood. Raised by a single dad, she often had to take care of herself. At 16, she dropped out of high school to work and support herself. Gradually, Bautista built a life. By 2005, she had worked at a local bank.
With each passing year, however, Bautista felt her career options (职业选择) narrowing. After nearly ten years in banking, she was getting burned out. She dreamed of becoming an accountant (会计), but knew that required a diploma (文凭). Meanwhile, her incomplete education made her feel uncomfortable socially.
When the hospital call center job fell through, Bautista knew she’d reached a breaking point. “At that moment, it was just, ‘I have to fix this.’”
After searching for local classes, Bautista came across a preparatory program on the Hopelink website. She’d known it ran a food bank, but was unaware Hope link also offered free adult education programs.
Though Bautista was nervous about being in class, she refused to let that fear get in the way. “She always asked questions and was really open about what she understood and didn’t understand,” says Debbie Margolis, a teacher of Hopelink.
Hopelink helped Bautista prepare for her GED test, which awards the equivalent of a high school diploma. She passed the test in six months in June 2019. Even today, Bautista recalls the relief she felt—“Just the weight lifting off my shoulders: I finally get this done.”
4. What does the underlined word “rescinded” mean in the first paragraph?
A. Limited. B. Delivered. C. Identified. D. Cancelled.
5. What can we learn about Bautista from paragraph 2?
A. She missed her childhood. B. She suffered many hardships.
C. She supported a big family. D. She lived with her students.
6. One of the purposes of Hopelink is to ________.
A. teach the locals how to save food B. design GED tests for young students
C. provide adults with education courses D. help parents see their own strengths
7. Which of the following best describes Bautista?
A. Determined. B. Demanding. C. Humorous. D. Generous.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了Cheré Bautista高中没有毕业,这使她在找工作事受挫,于是她参加了成人教育项目,开始学习,并参加了考试,获得了高中文凭。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后“due to something Bautista had kept secret for twenty years: She had never graduated from high school.(由于包蒂斯塔保守了二十年的秘密:她从未高中毕业)”及第二段“‘That was the lowest point in my life,’ recalls Bautista.(“那是我人生中的最低点,”包蒂斯塔回忆道。)”可推断,她没有高中毕业,这使得她申请的工作没有通过,所以她很伤心,即她的申请被取消,画线单词意为“取消”与cancelled的意思最接近。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“She has come a long way since her childhood. Raised by a single dad, she often had to take care of herself. At 16, she dropped out of high school to work and support herself.(自从童年以来,她已经走了很长一段路。她由单亲父亲抚养长大,经常需要照顾自己。16岁时,她从高中辍学去工作养活自己)”可推断,Bautista曾吃过不少苦头。故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“She’d known it ran a food bank, but was unaware Hopelink also offered free adult education programs.(她知道它经营着一家食品银行,但不知道Hopelink还提供免费的成人教育项目)”可知,Hopelink可以为成年人提供教育培训。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第四段中“At that moment, it was just,’ I have to fix this.’(在那一刻,我只是想,‘我必须解决这个问题。)”及第六段“Though Bautista was nervous about being in class, she refused to let that fear get in the way. “She always asked questions and was really open about what she understood and didn’t understand,” says Debbie Margolis, a teacher of Hopelink.(尽管包蒂斯塔对上课感到紧张,但她拒绝让这种恐惧妨碍她。“她总是提出问题,并且对自己理解和不理解的内容非常开放,”Hopelink的老师黛比·马戈利斯 (Debbie Margolis) 说道)”和最后一段中“She passed the test in six months in June 2019. (她在6个月后于2019年6月通过了考试)”可知,Bautista在课上提出问题,拒绝让自己的恐惧妨碍她,并在短短6个月就通过了考试。由此可推知,她意志坚定。故选A。

Ecologists Dr. Matt Holden, Dr. Andrew Rogers and Dr. Russell Yong observed their share house and its backyard in 2020, and discovered 1,150 unique species of animals and plants over a 12-month period.
“We asked a large number of ecologists and conservation scientists how many species they’d expect to find in this setting and they said it could be only 200,”Dr. Holden said. “But after 60 days of surveying, we’d already discovered 777 species. It shows suburban (郊区的) houses and apartments could have far more biodiversity (生物多样性) than ever imagined, especially when it comes to insects.”
The idea of the species count was born when Dr. Rogers went to clean spider’s webs (蜘蛛网) in his room and wondered how many spiders were in the house. “The three of us soon worked out a plan to check the house and backyard in search of other insects that lived alongside us,” Dr. Holden said.
The survey showed richly biodiverse creatures, including 436 moth and butterfly species, 56 different spiders, and 56 birds. The researchers were also surprised to discover three species not previously recorded in Australia’s leading biodiversity database. “The house was a rich ecosystem of species interacting—we discovered unexpectedly a kind of moth, which spends its whole time feeding inside the waste of other animals before turning into an adult,” Dr. Holden said.
Homes across all suburban areas could play host to similar biodiversity. “It depends on how people tend to their homes and gardens—keeping low maintenance trees and flowers and preventing chemicals used for killing insects will lead to the rising number of living creatures,” Dr. Holden said. “You don’t have to go travelling to connect with Australia’s different species of creatures. Just look in your own backyard.”
8. How many species did the three housemates discover in 12 months?
A. 200. B. 436. C. 700. D. 1, 150.
9. What made Dr. Rogers get the idea of the species count?
A. Cleaning his room. B. Observing the spiders.
C. A talk with his friend. D. A mass of dead insects.
10. Which statement will Dr. Holden probably agree with?
A. Australia has seen a jump in living creatures. B. Suburban backyards are home to diverse species.
C. Wildlife tourism threatens animals and plants. D. People should keep their gardens free of insects.
11. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A children’s story. B. A museum guide.
C. A science magazine. D. A health report.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C

Microplastics (微塑料) pollute drinking water. Data now suggest all of us have microplastics in our bodies. Some plastics are harmful.
Menake Piyasena, a professor at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, and his team worked on a new process. In the past, Piyasena used ultrasound (超声波) to separate microbes and other cells from water. He recalls thinking: “What if we can use the same method to concentrate on microplastics?”
The researchers send polluted water down a tube. The tube’s water flows past a transducer, which turns electrical energy into sound energy. It makes ultrasound waves that travel from one side of the tube to the other. When they hit microplastics, these waves exert(施加)a force on the plastic bits.
What happens next depends on the size of those plastic bits. Ones less than about 180micrometers across will move to the center of the flow. Larger ones will interact with each other and create an additional force. This sends those larger ones toward the other end of flowing water.
The ultrasound treatment removed about four in every five plastic bits from the water. It took about 90 minutes to clean one liter. It cost only about 10 cents to do that. “We think our approach will be cost-effective and simple,” Piyasena says.
“Microplastics are a problem worldwide,” says a research chemist Souhail Al-Abed, who works for the US Environmental Protection Agency. In his opinion, this tech is not yet ready to be rolled out for widespread use. “I’d like to express praise for Piyasena’s team that are conducting this research,” Al-Abed adds. “Research does not have all the answers on day 1 or day 2 or day 100. But continuing work by these researchers may find a good solution for the future.”
12. Why did the researchers turn to ultrasound in the new study?
A. They proved it was harmless to humans.
B. They managed to apply it to other studies.
C. It produced enough energy to heat water.
D. It enabled them to focus on the experiment.
13. What can we infer about the water treatment?
A. It might waste plenty of water.
B. It will serve every family soon.
C. It could lead to safer drinking water.
D. It has been the most effective approach.
14. What is Al-Abed’s attitude to Piyasena’s research?
A. Hopeless. B. Unclear. C. Concerned. D. Positive.
15. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Ultrasound Helps Remove Microplastics in Water
B. Scientists Have Found the Cause of Water Pollution
C. Efforts Are Made to Turn Microplastics into Energy
D. Plastics Have a Bad Influence on Our Everyday Life
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】

考查名词。句意:皇帝对妻子的去世非常悲伤。分析可知,名词所有格“the ___2__ (lose) of his wife”,所填应是名词,“lose”,动词,意为“丢失,失去”,其名词形式为“loss (去世)”。故填loss。
【38题详解】
考查介词和固定短语。句意:受这一场景的启发,聪明的大臣想到了一个主意。分析可知,“(be) inspired by…”,固定短语,意为“受到……的启发”。故填by。
【39题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意:受这一场景的启发,聪明的大臣想到了一个主意。分析可知,泛指一个主意,“idea”为可数名词单数形式,因此,所填空应是不定冠词作限定词。“idea /aɪˈdɪə/”的发音是元音音素开头,应是用an。故填an。
【40题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:夜幕降临时,他邀请皇帝在幕布后观看木偶戏,这深深地吸引了皇帝,从此他喜欢上了木偶戏。分析可知,“invite sb. to do sth.”,意为“邀请某人做某事”,不定式作宾语补足语。故填to watch。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意:夜幕降临时,他邀请皇帝在幕布后观看木偶戏,这深深地吸引了皇帝,从此他喜欢上了木偶戏。分析可知,“__6____ attracted the emperor deeply…”是非限制性定语从句,先行词是“a puppet show”,指物,关系词替代先行词在从句中作主语,用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:官方史书中记载的这个故事被认为是皮影戏的开端。分析可知,“__7 ____ (record) in the official history book”为之前名词“This story”的后置定语,用非谓语形式;动词“record”与This story之间为逻辑被动关系,record用过去分词形式。故填recorded。
【43题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:皮影戏以其优美的音乐、精美的雕塑、欢快的色彩和生动的表演赢得了许多观众的好评。分析可知,所填应是名词,作动词“wins”的宾语。结合空前“many”可知,这里用可数名词comment的复数形式。故填comments。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:人物的设计遵循传统的道德评价和美学。分析可知,这里应是形容词作定语,修饰名词短语“moral evaluation”。“tradition”,名词,意为“传统,传说”,其形容词形式为“traditional (传统的)”。故填traditional。
【45题详解】
考查动名词。句意:观众可以通过一个人物的面具来判断他的性格。分析可知,“by”为介词,所填应是动名词形式,作宾语,by doing sth. (通过做某事)。故填seeing。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Nola Ochs was born in Kansas in 1911. There were many farms and everybody had a job to do. Nola Ochs was raised under the endless sky, and the long arc (弧线) of the sun marked her chore-filled (满是工作的) days. Her life was common. She grew and married, had children and grandchildren, taught in country schools, and lived the quiet Midwest life. But she was different in one way: After her husband died in 1972, Nola began taking classes and finally earned her associate degree (准学士学位) at the age of 77.
“I still want to go to school. It is fun to go to classes. And if I have homework to do in the evening, that takes up my time in a pleasant way,” she recalled. After some years went by, Nola decided to keep going and get her master’s degree in Fort Hays State University in Hays, Kansas, where her granddaughter studied. She emailed the university for admission (入学), mentioning that she was 80, and had prepared for studying further.
注意:1.续写词数应 150个左右;

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
A week later, she got an mail back for her admission. Nola was excited to study further for her dream and with her granddaughter. In the beginning, she met many difficulties because those courses were so complex for her. But she never gave up. She made use of her time to turn to anyone around her for help, including her granddaughter. She overcame all the difficulties to study on her own time, at her own pace. When Nola had 30 hours of school left to complete, she moved 100 miles away from her farm to study. Finally, she got her master’s degree of Fort Hays State University.
On the day of her graduation, Nola was chosen to be a spokesperson. She said what kept her young was her passion for learning everything she could about the world. It was about seeing everyone she met as a teacher. She added, “Age is just a number, as long as you have your mind and health.” Nola lived a long and productive life, but her work was still not done. As the sun bent its great arc across the sky, Nola was at work, plowing the fields of her mind.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Nola Ochs是一个在堪萨斯州出生的普通女性,过着平静的中西部生活。然而,她在丈夫去世后开始了一段不同寻常的学习旅程。在生活的压力下,她不仅没有放弃,反而在77岁时获得了准学士学位,体现了她对教育的热情和决心。几年后,她决定继续深造,向福特海斯州立大学申请入学,追求硕士学位。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“一周后,她收到了录取通知书的回信。”可知,第一段可描写Nola成功被录取,并完成了学业。
②由第二段首句内容“在她毕业的那天,Nola被选为代言人。”可知,第二段可描写Nola对学习的感想。
2. 续写线索:收到录取通知——努力学习——完成学业——被选为代言人——发表感想。
3. 词汇激活
行为类
①利用:make use of/take advantage of
②包括:include/contain
③完成:complete/finish
情绪类

【点睛】[高分句型1]In the beginning, she met many difficulties because those courses were so complex for her.(because引导原因状语从句)
