【导语】本文讲述刘明以前经常浪费资源,这周当他在英语课上学到绿色生活后,开始保护环境,并介绍他的一些做法。
【52题详解】
句意:他下定决心为环境做一些简单的事情。根据首字母及“He made up his...to do some simple things for the environment.”可知空处表示“他下定决心”。考查“make up one’s mind”下定决心。故填(m)ind。
【53题详解】
句意:他计划明智地使用纸张。根据首字母及“He made up his...to do some simple things for the environment.”及“For example, use both sides of the paper.”可知此处表示“明智地”。空前的“use”使用,是动词,需用副词修饰,应用wisely“明智地,精明地”。故填(w)isely。

十一、阅读表达,
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过5个单词。
—Cats!
—Dogs!
These can be fighting words, depending on (取决于) who you’re talking to.
Clearly, there are dog people and there are cat people. Dog people prefer dogs and think they are “man’s best friend”, while cat people like cats because they are elegant (优雅) and independent (独立). Sometimes the two groups even argue with each other, trying to prove that their side is the best.
Dogs seem to be winning the battle. An Associated Press poll (民意调查) in 2018 showed that people in the US like dogs more than cats. As much as 74 percent said they liked dogs “a lot” but only 41 percent said the same thing about cats. The 2018 White Paper on China’s Pet Industry also showed that there are around 11 million more dog owners than cat owners in Chinese cities.
However, cats seem to get more attention online. There are even some new slang terms to refer to them. Cats are described as “masters” (喵主子) online, while the dog owners are “servants who clean their masters’ feces” (“铲屎官”). Even those who don’t have pet cats are doing something called “cloud cat petting” (“云吸猫”), which means viewing videos of cats online.
An article in The Guardian pointed out that dog owners usually go outside to play with their pets or their neighbors’ dogs. But since cats are mainly indoor animals, the internet has become a virtual (虚拟的) “cat park” for cat owners.
But it doesn’t really matter if you prefer cats or dogs. Petting an animal itself makes us feel good.
67. What are cats like in cat people’s eyes?
___________________________________
68. Which seems to get more attention online, cats or dogs?

【70题详解】
根据“An article in The Guardian pointed out...But since cats are mainly indoor animals, they are more likely to stay at home.”可知,猫是室内动物。故填Cats are mainly indoor animals.
【71题详解】
根据最后一段“But it doesn’t really matter if you prefer cats or dogs. Petting an animal itself makes us feel good.”可知,作者支持养宠物。故填The writer supports to pet an animal.

You might know about the Emei martial arts (武术) in wuxia novels by Jin Yong. Does it really exist (存在)? The answer is yes.
Emei martial arts started from Mount Emei in Sichuan province. It has a history of about 3,000 years. Together with Shaolin and Wudang, Emei is one of the three main schools of Chinese kung fu.
Both strength (力量) and softness are important to Emei martial arts. While practicing it, people have to move their hands and feet quickly and forcefully (有力地). The movements are full of ups and downs. Emei martial arts have 68 schools and 2,638 practice skills and ways. In 2008, the Emei martial arts became a National Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China.
Ma Zhaolingyun, 24, is an inheritor (传承人) of Emei martial arts. She has amazed people with her skills in her videos.
Ma started to practice martial arts when she was 4. She loves to show different Emei martial arts skills in daily life, including those using swords, daggers (匕首), spears (矛) and more. She also uses everyday things like feather dusters (羽毛掸子) and brooms to perform.
Three years ago, Ma became popular online for a video. In the video, she performed martial arts with a sword after throwing garbage (垃圾) into a waste bin!
Ma and her team have kept working out new ways to promote (推广) Emei martial arts. For example, she puts elements (元素) like games and fashion in her videos.

十一、阅读表达,
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过5个单词。
—Cats!
—Dogs!
These can be fighting words, depending on (取决于) who you’re talking to.
Clearly, there are dog people and there are cat people. Dog people prefer dogs and think they are “man’s best friend”, while cat people like cats because they are elegant (优雅) and independent (独立). Sometimes the two groups even argue with each other, trying to prove that their side is the best.
Dogs seem to be winning the battle. An Associated Press poll (民意调查) in 2018 showed that people in the US like dogs more than cats. As much as 74 percent said they liked dogs “a lot” but only 41 percent said the same thing about cats. The 2018 White Paper on China’s Pet Industry also showed that there are around 11 million more dog owners than cat owners in Chinese cities.
However, cats seem to get more attention online. There are even some new slang terms to refer to them. Cats are described as “masters” (喵主子) online, while the dog owners are “servants who clean their masters’ feces” (“铲屎官”). Even those who don’t have pet cats are doing something called “cloud cat petting” (“云吸猫”), which means viewing videos of cats online.
An article in The Guardian pointed out that dog owners usually go outside to play with their pets or their neighbors’ dogs. But since cats are mainly indoor animals, the internet has become a virtual (虚拟的) “cat park” for cat owners.
But it doesn’t really matter if you prefer cats or dogs. Petting an animal itself makes us feel good.
67. What are cats like in cat people’s eyes?

68. Which seems to get more attention online, cats or dogs?
