Jacqueline Nyetipei Kiplimo’s dream of being a world-class runner began when she was a child in Kenya. She soon realized she had the talent and the willpower to compete. She also knew she would have to train full-time, which meant not being able to work to help support her family. But she was confident that she could bring home prize money.
Jacqueline traveled to China to compete in the Zhenkai marathon knowing she had a good shot at winning the race, but more importantly, the $ 10,000 prize that went with it. She was leading the women’s division when a male runner arrived at the water station at the 20-kilometer mark. The man was running at a good pace but had trouble drinking water because a birth disability had left him without hands, and he struggled to drink from the slippery plastic bottles. But any assistance from fans or race officials would result in his disqualification (取消资格). Jacqueline noticed the man and immediately knew that he needed help. She grabbed a water bottle and helped him get the water his body needed to complete the race. Then she ran at his pace with the bottle and helped him drink while they ran along.
Runner after runner passed Jacqueline. Her hopes of winning were getting lost in the crowd of runners ahead of her. With only 4 kilometers left in the race, and it was certain that her new friend would now finish. Jacqueline picked up her pace. Her long step kicked in, and she wove through her competitors to finish second.
That day, Jacqueline missed out on first place, but she finished with something more important: her good nature. When asked about the bigger cash prize, she said that money isn’t everything. She returned home with the smaller prize of second place, but to her seven younger brothers and sisters, she brought home something much more valuable: the right example.

As newer, more advanced technologies come out, huge amounts of electronics are thrown away, instead of being reused. These goods often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can contain harmful materials. If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. Most electronics require metals. These metals must be mined from the Earth. Often the mining process creates serious pollution.
A group known as Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Forum is trying to make people more aware of the problems of e-waste. Recently, the WEEE Forum asked researchers from the United Nations (UN) to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed because people don’t consider the goods to be electronics. The WEEE Forum calls this kind “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste.
The UN study shows that about 1/6 of all e-waste is “unable-to-be-seen”. Though it’s “unable-to-be-seen”, it’s certainly not a small amount. The “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste weighs about 9 billion kilograms. The WEEE Forum says that if this e-waste were put into 40-ton trucks and the trucks were then lined up, the line of trucks would be about 5,630 kilometers long.
The surprising kind leading the “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste group was toys. Worldwide, roughly 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include goods like car racing sets, electric trains, and musical toys. They also include toys with electronic parts, like dolls that speak or games with electronic times. In all, toys make up about 35% of “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The report also shows that other everyday goods like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools, and computer cables (电缆) are also big sources of “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste.
The WEEE Forum is hoping that as more people and governments become aware of e-waste, they will make a much greater effort to make sure electronics get reused.
8. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. The amount of electronics. B. The development of electronics.
C. The ways of reusing electronics. D. The background of e-pollution.
9. What causes some e-waste often unnoticed?
A. People’s interest in electronics’ character.
B. People’s impression on electronics’ package.
C. People’s ignorance of some electronics.
D. People’s struggle to adapt to electronics.
10. How is paragraph 3 developed?
A By referring to study results. B. By providing examples.
C. By making a summary. D. By making a comparison.
11. Which of the following is the WEEE Forum’s solution to e-waste?
A. Designing advanced electronics. B. Reusing electronics.
C. Stopping giving away electronics. D. Reducing electronics’ production.
D

Forbes thought that a number of factors had led to the popularity of live streams. Among them is viewers’ ability to interact with unknown names.
However, the quick development of social media may be having side effects too, Fake news is one serious problem it causes, Materials shared on these platforms are often not checked for accuracy. The most basic content can be false and can mislead users one way or another. We use social media all the time; that doesn’t mean that we understand the influence it is having on us. We should be mindful of both the time we spend on it and its impact on our minds.

The past summer in Antarctica, Elaine had spent long hours inside the plain, practical buildings of the McMurdo research station. With winter coming, she’d be heading home soon. But before she left, there was one more thing Elaine wanted to do. She was determined to see a penguin (企鹅) — up close. That night after dinner, someone said there was a lone penguin on the ice on the far side of the station. Elaine rushed out, hoping to get a closer look.
The day had been sunny and warm. But a frosty wind circled, which was a warning. Elaine knew the weather could change in a heartbeat. A sudden storm could drop the temperature by 50℃ in just a few minutes.
A biting wind blew, and she suddenly found that she had left her hat and radio back at McMurdo! But hearing about the penguin, she’d rushed out without them. This was trouble. She was out on the ice alone, without her gear (装备).
Maybe the cold had slowed down her brain, but Elaine didn’t consider the danger. All she could think of was the penguin. Watching the swinging penguin shape coming closer, she saw a flash of yellow. It was an emperor penguin!
It was against the rules to approach a penguin, she knew. So she had to wait and see if the penguin would come to her. Elaine held her breath, concentrating on the penguin walking towards her. Soon the penguin stood right in front of her: Its eyes were level with hers, its beak (喙) almost touching her nose.
She admired the golden-orange designs edging the penguin’s beak. She tried not to close her eyes as the penguin eyed her closely. Then it reached out its beak, leaned in, and tapped her cheek. Elaine’s heart beat with the thrill. The penguin bent forward, then reached its beak inside her collar. Elaine couldn’t help it — she giggled (咯咯笑). Her laugh scared the penguin. And it slipped away.
A storm was already coming, and it was past time to head back to McMurdo. Suddenly, a strong wind knocked her off her feet.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
She was pulled by the wind onto a thin skin of ice above an large ice crack (裂缝).
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Realizing the penguin was leading her out of danger Elaine decided to follow the penguin.

Jacqueline Nyetipei Kiplimo’s dream of being a world-class runner began when she was a child in Kenya. She soon realized she had the talent and the willpower to compete. She also knew she would have to train full-time, which meant not being able to work to help support her family. But she was confident that she could bring home prize money.
Jacqueline traveled to China to compete in the Zhenkai marathon knowing she had a good shot at winning the race, but more importantly, the $ 10,000 prize that went with it. She was leading the women’s division when a male runner arrived at the water station at the 20-kilometer mark. The man was running at a good pace but had trouble drinking water because a birth disability had left him without hands, and he struggled to drink from the slippery plastic bottles. But any assistance from fans or race officials would result in his disqualification (取消资格). Jacqueline noticed the man and immediately knew that he needed help. She grabbed a water bottle and helped him get the water his body needed to complete the race. Then she ran at his pace with the bottle and helped him drink while they ran along.
Runner after runner passed Jacqueline. Her hopes of winning were getting lost in the crowd of runners ahead of her. With only 4 kilometers left in the race, and it was certain that her new friend would now finish. Jacqueline picked up her pace. Her long step kicked in, and she wove through her competitors to finish second.
That day, Jacqueline missed out on first place, but she finished with something more important: her good nature. When asked about the bigger cash prize, she said that money isn’t everything. She returned home with the smaller prize of second place, but to her seven younger brothers and sisters, she brought home something much more valuable: the right example.

As newer, more advanced technologies come out, huge amounts of electronics are thrown away, instead of being reused. These goods often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can contain harmful materials. If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. Most electronics require metals. These metals must be mined from the Earth. Often the mining process creates serious pollution.
A group known as Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Forum is trying to make people more aware of the problems of e-waste. Recently, the WEEE Forum asked researchers from the United Nations (UN) to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed because people don’t consider the goods to be electronics. The WEEE Forum calls this kind “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste.
The UN study shows that about 1/6 of all e-waste is “unable-to-be-seen”. Though it’s “unable-to-be-seen”, it’s certainly not a small amount. The “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste weighs about 9 billion kilograms. The WEEE Forum says that if this e-waste were put into 40-ton trucks and the trucks were then lined up, the line of trucks would be about 5,630 kilometers long.
The surprising kind leading the “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste group was toys. Worldwide, roughly 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include goods like car racing sets, electric trains, and musical toys. They also include toys with electronic parts, like dolls that speak or games with electronic times. In all, toys make up about 35% of “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The report also shows that other everyday goods like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools, and computer cables (电缆) are also big sources of “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste.
The WEEE Forum is hoping that as more people and governments become aware of e-waste, they will make a much greater effort to make sure electronics get reused.
8. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. The amount of electronics. B. The development of electronics.
C. The ways of reusing electronics. D. The background of e-pollution.
9. What causes some e-waste often unnoticed?
A. People’s interest in electronics’ character.
B. People’s impression on electronics’ package.
C. People’s ignorance of some electronics.
D. People’s struggle to adapt to electronics.
10. How is paragraph 3 developed?
A. By referring to study results. B. By providing examples.
C. By making a summary. D. By making a comparison.
11. Which of the following is the WEEE Forum’s solution to e-waste?
A. Designing advanced electronics. B. Reusing electronics.
C. Stopping giving away electronics. D. Reducing electronics’ production.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了电子垃圾对环境的危害及其中的“隐形”电子垃圾问题。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“These goods often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can contain harmful materials. If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. Most electronics require metals. These metals must be mined from the Earth. Often the mining process creates serious pollution.(这些货物往往最终被填埋,其中的化学物质可能对环境构成威胁。电子产品可能含有有害物质。如果这些物质进入地下或水中,污染可能会导致严重的问题。大多数电子产品都需要金属。这些金属必须从地球上开采。采矿过程往往会造成严重的污染)”可知,第一段主要描述了电子产品内含有有害物质,进入地下或水中会导致严重的污染问题,电子产品所需要的金属在开采时会造成严重的污染,因此本段主要是关于电子污染的背景信息。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Recently, the WEEE Forum asked researchers from the United Nations (UN) to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed because people don’t consider the goods to be electronics.(最近,WEEE论坛邀请联合国(UN)的研究人员研究一种通常不被注意到的电子垃圾,因为人们不认为这些商品是电子产品)”可知,这种电子产品不被人注意到是因为人们不认为它们是电子产品,由此可知,一些电子废物之所以常被忽视,是因为人们对某些电子设备的无知。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The UN study shows that about 1/6 of all e-waste is “unable-to-be-seen”. Though it’s “unable-to-be-seen”, it’s certainly not a small amount. The “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste weighs about 9 billion kilograms.(联合国的研究表明,大约六分之一的电子垃圾“看不见”。虽然“看不见”,但这肯定不是一个小数目。“看不见”的电子垃圾重达约90亿公斤)”可知,该段落是通过引用研究结果来展开的。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The WEEE Forum is hoping that as more people and governments become aware of e-waste, they will make a much greater effort to make sure electronics get reused.(WEEE论坛希望,随着越来越多的人和政府意识到电子垃圾,他们将做出更大的努力,确保电子产品得到再利用)”可知,WEEE论坛希望更多的人和政府意识到电子垃圾的存在,他们将更加努力地确保电子产品被再利用,故WEEE论坛对于电子垃圾的解决方案是促进电子产品的再利用。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了宇航员在太空中可能遇到的危险。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:对于短期任务,它们需要抵御低温和太阳眩光的保护。作require的宾语,要用名词protection。不可数。故填 protection。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:当宇航员在飞船外进行太空行走时,这些需求尤其紧迫。修饰形容词pressing应用副词particularly。故填particularly。
【38题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:太空服是带有氧气罐、主动指尖加热器和其他保护措施的防护服。other后跟复数名词。故填measures。
【39题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:太空中存在许多风险,并非所有风险都可以避免。all of which代替的是前面的risks, 与avoid之间为被动关系,且can后跟动词原形。故填be avoided
【40题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:太空中的任何东西都有被时速数千英里的微小流星击中的小而真实的风险,这将摧毁目前正在使用的任何材料。此处travel与shooting star为主动关系,故用现在分词短语作后置定语。故填traveling/travelling。
【41题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:太空中的任何东西都有被时速数千英里的微小流星击中的小而真实的风险,这将摧毁目前正在使用的任何材料。此处use与materials为被动关系,故为过去分词作后置定语,或表示正在进行用being done形式。故填used/being used。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:另一个随着距离增加的危险是辐射。定语从句修饰先行词risk,关系词在从句中作主语,指物。故填that/which。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:目前的技术在应对这种风险方面做得并不多,宇航员在太空中的时间越长,这种风险就越高。短语deal with表示“处理”。故填 with。
【44题详解】
考查并列连词。句意:太空旅行的另一个长期风险是失重导致骨骼和肌肉退化。此处bone与muscle为并列关系应用连词and。故填 and。
【45题详解】
考查不定式。句意:宇航员通过锻炼来帮助减少不良影响,但这些只是部分有效。此处help在句中作目的状语,应用不定式。故填 to help。

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
The past summer in Antarctica, Elaine had spent long hours inside the plain, practical buildings of the McMurdo research station. With winter coming, she’d be heading home soon. But before she left, there was one more thing Elaine wanted to do. She was determined to see a penguin (企鹅) — up close. That night after dinner, someone said there was a lone penguin on the ice on the far side of the station. Elaine rushed out, hoping to get a closer look.
The day had been sunny and warm. But a frosty wind circled, which was a warning. Elaine knew the weather could change in a heartbeat. A sudden storm could drop the temperature by 50℃ in just a few minutes.
A biting wind blew, and she suddenly found that she had left her hat and radio back at McMurdo! But hearing about the penguin, she’d rushed out without them. This was trouble. She was out on the ice alone, without her gear (装备).
Maybe the cold had slowed down her brain, but Elaine didn’t consider the danger. All she could think of was the penguin. Watching the swinging penguin shape coming closer, she saw a flash of yellow. It was an emperor penguin!
It was against the rules to approach a penguin, she knew. So she had to wait and see if the penguin would come to her. Elaine held her breath, concentrating on the penguin walking towards her. Soon the penguin stood right in front of her: Its eyes were level with hers, its beak (喙) almost touching her nose.
She admired the golden-orange designs edging the penguin’s beak. She tried not to close her eyes as the penguin eyed her closely. Then it reached out its beak, leaned in, and tapped her cheek. Elaine’s heart beat with the thrill. The penguin bent forward, then reached its beak inside her collar. Elaine couldn’t help it — she giggled (咯咯笑). Her laugh scared the penguin. And it slipped away.
A storm was already coming, and it was past time to head back to McMurdo. Suddenly, a strong wind knocked her off her feet.

【答案】She was pulled by the wind onto a thin skin of ice above an large ice crack (裂缝). Elaine heard a sound as tiny cracks shot through the ice. She dropped a little lower. If she broke through, she’d drop into the large crack, where nobody would ever find her. The storm blew hard and Elaine was confused. Then, in the sudden quiet, Elaine felt someone near. She looked up and found the penguin watching her. The penguin walked away, then stopped and looked back. It seemed to be inviting her to follow.
Realizing the penguin was leading her out of danger, Elaine decided to follow the penguin. She spread her arms on the ice like wings, keeping her body flat and spreading her weight across the weak surface. She pushed forward on her stomach, inching along. Ahead, the penguin wove a trail between the cracks. Elaine followed behind. Finally, Elaine moved on hands and knees until she was safe. Thanks to that penguin, Elaine would head home with a story that she’d never forget.
【解析】
【导语】本文以事件发展为线索展开,讲述了Elaine在南极洲时,为了近距离看企鹅而冒险外出,遭遇风暴且陷入危险的经历。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句“她被风刮到了一个巨大冰裂缝上方的薄冰层上。”可知,此段应描写Elaine在薄冰上的危险处境,企鹅的出现及帮助。
②由第二段首句“意识到企鹅在引导她脱离危险,Elaine决定跟随企鹅。”可知,此段应描写Elaine跟随企鹅最终脱离危险。
2.续写线索:在破裂的薄冰上——企鹅出现——企鹅引路——跟随企鹅——脱离危险——心怀感激
