People turn to online resources more often. Second, the cost of running the library has become too high due to its structural repairs and outdated services. Third, the library collection has become out of date. With a limited budget, we have found it difficult to keep a collection that can meet your needs. Our library has quite a long history and it first came into use on march twenty ninth 1954. Over the years it has built up a collection of nearly 10,000 books. It is a sad day for us, but the decision has been made. We really hope to see you again someday. 第二部分：阅读理解(共两节 ,满分50分) 第一节：(共15题；每小题2.5分 ,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题给出的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Copenhagen is an ideal destination for food-loving travellers, but there are many gastronomic (美食的) adventures that await visitors outside this capital city of Denmark.

Noticing that the door was open, she entered the library, and was astonished to see the heartwarming scene that people were using it like on a regular day. It was scheduled to be closed for the New Year holiday. The people in the library behaved as usual. Many were sitting reading newspapers, some families were in the children's section and others were searching for books on the computer. It seemed that Elf's colleagues had simply forgotten to lock the door, and because this popular library is usually open on Saturdays. visitors just assumed they could walk in. Elf called to check with her staff team, before announcing to the people present that the library was about to close. Then she expressed her regret for what had been done wrong and caused them a problem. It later turns out that 446 locals visited the city library borrowing a total of 246 books during the day. What's remarkable is that people checked out their books through the library's electronic self-service system, and that to date, all the books have been returned! Many Swedes have reacted positively to this uplifting demonstration of local respect for the library, a center that can be seen as a sign of the community, and what the locals did has strengthened their sense of belonging in their community. Elf says, “Nothing was destroyed. It's amazing that Gothenburgers entered an empty library and treated and so lovingly.” The city leader has even suggested that this unusual Saturday serve as an accidental experiment to analyse the possibility of operating a totally automated library without staff. 24. Why did Elf feel surprised after entering the library? A. The library staff were in it. B. People kept reading on holidays. C. People came in without permission. D. It was used though supposed to be closed. 25. What did Elf do that Saturday? A. She left the library open. B. She asked the staff back. C. She apologized to the visitors. D.

It is a positive reaction to society. D. It strengthens trust between people. 27. What does the author want to convey through the story? A. People tend to show care for others. B. Life is always full of the unexpected. C. Libraries can be automated sometimes. D. A library can bring out the best in people. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27.

Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada. “There is power in a name, and some English bird names have associations with the past that continue to be exclusionary (排他的) and harmful today,” the organization’s president, Colleen Handel, said in a statement. “Everyone who loves and cares about birds should be able to enjoy and study them freely.” Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur. “I’m really happy and excited about the announcement,” said Emily Williams, an ornithologist at Georgetown University who was not involved in the decision. She said heated discussions over bird names have been happening within birdwatching communities for the past several years. “Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said. Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly. “The name has come to represent so much more than the work of one person,” Susan Bell, chair of the National Audubon Society’s Board of Directors, told Audubon magazine in March, adding, “We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past.” 28. Why are some examples given in paragraph 3? A. To state naming birds after people is common practice. B. To show birds are closely related to people’s daily life. C. To introduce some famous naturalists to the readers. D. To stress the influence celebrities have on society. 29. How should birds be named according to Emily Williams? A. After their places of birth. B. Based on their communities. C. According to their habits. D. In terms of their living places. 30. What is Susan Bell’s attitude towards the decision of NAS? A. Supportive. B. Carefree. C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic. 31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Rare Species Found in North America B. Bird Names Linking to Human History C. Discussions Caused by Bird Names D. Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了美国鸟类学会宣布将不再以人名命名北美洲的鸟类，并计划在未来一年内重新命名美国和加拿大发现的约80个物种。文章详细描述了这一决定的背景、原因以及相关的讨论和争议。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur. (该组织宣布，所有鸟类都将重新命名，而不是单独审查每只以某个人命名的鸟类。将被重新命名的鸟类包括目前被称为威尔逊莺和威尔逊鹬的鸟类，它们都是以19世纪博物学家亚历山大威尔逊的名字命名的。奥杜邦的海鸥，一种以约翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦命名的海鸟，也将得到一个新名字。2020年，该组织将一种曾经指联邦军队将军约翰·皮·麦考恩的鸟改名为厚嘴长刺鸟。)”可知，本段介绍了一些以人名命名的鸟类，目的是说明以人名给鸟类命名在过去是一种常见的做法。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句““Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said. (她说：“根据栖息地或外表给鸟类命名是问题最少的方法之一。”)”可知，Emily Williams建议根据栖息地或外表给鸟类命名。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly. (今年早些时候，美国国家奥杜邦协会（NAS）宣布将保留其名称，尽管批评人士和该组织内部的一些声音认为，它应该与约翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦断绝关系，因为他的家人残忍地对待他们的员工。)”和最后一段中Susan Bell的话“We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past. (我们不应该忽视约翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦过去对员工所做的一切。)”可知，Susan Bell对美国国家奥杜邦协会决定保留以翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦命名的海鸟的名字这一做法持反对意见。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Birds in North America will no longer be named after people, the American Ornithological Society (美国鸟类学会) announced Wednesday. Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada. (美国鸟类学会周三宣布，北美的鸟类将不再以人的名字命名。明年，该组织将开始重新命名在美国和加拿大发现的大约80个物种。)”可知，文章主要报道了美国鸟类学会宣布将不再以人名命名北美洲的鸟类，并计划在未来一年内重新命名美国和加拿大发现的约80个物种。文章详细描述了这一决定的背景、原因以及相关的讨论和争议。D选项“Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year (明年鸟类将被重新命名)”最适合作文章标题。故选D。 D E-cigarettes are increasingly being used as a nicotine (尼古丁) alternative (替代品) as smokers look for ways to kick their habit — and then stay off cigarettes for good. E-cigarettes work by heating a pure liquid called e-juice — made up of flavorings, propylene glycol, glycerin and often nicotine — until it changes into gas. The use of vaping (电子烟) for tobacco stopping became especially popular in the UK after a study found that e-cigarettes helped 50,000 to 70,000 smokers in England give up smoking in 2017. It is said that vaping cleared the 7,000 or more chemicals found in a burning cigarette and its smoke, many of which are harmful, according to Johns Hopkins medicine. But their use has become controversial (有争议的) in the US and other countries because of warnings about possible long-term health effects, possibly from ingredients besides nicotine in the vape juice or cartridge. The US Surgeon General says vapes can contain “ultrafine substances that can be taken deep into the lungs, flavorants such as diacetyl, a chemical linked to serious lung disease, volatile organic compounds and heavy metals, such as nickel, tin, and lead.” What's more, countless studies found teen use is a direct gateway to traditional cigarette smoking at a time when teenager use of e-cigarettes was increasing. A 2019 outbreak of a mysterious vaping-related lung disease among American youth has triggered alarm as well. As of February 2020, the condition had killed at least 68 people and sickened more than 2,807, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. One 18-year-old American who vaped for over a year ended up in the hospital with “lungs like a 70-year-old.” The condition, now known as EVALI (e-cigarette or vaping use-associated lung injury), is strongly linked to e-cigarettes containing vitamin E acetate, a sticky oil substance that can cling to lung tissue. 32. What can we learn about e-cigarettes from the first two paragraphs? A. They consist of gases. B. They contain no nicotine. C. They take the place of cigarettes. D. They were accepted in Britain. 33. What does the US Surgeon General want to tell us about e-cigarettes? A. They contain healthy substances. B. They are harmful to people’s health. C. They can help people stop smoking. D. They are better than traditional cigarettes. 34. What can be inferred about American teenagers? A. E-cigarettes hurt their lungs badly. B. They find a way to anti-smoking. C. E-cigarettes make them look older. D. The US Center stops them smoking. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Harmful E-cigarettes? B. Smoking or Non-Smoking? C. The Popularity of E-cigarettes in the UK? D. Use of E-cigarettes as Anti-smoking Assistance? 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导读】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述电子烟作为帮助戒烟的辅助被使用，但电子烟的危害很大，不利健康。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章的第二段的“The use of vaping (电子烟) for tobacco stopping became especially popular in the UK after a study found that e-cigarettes helped 50,000 to 70,000 smokers in England give up smoking in 2017.(在一项研究发现电子烟在2017年帮助英国5万至7万烟民戒烟后，使用电子烟戒烟在英国变得尤为流行。)”可知，电子烟在英国被人们接受。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The US Surgeon General says vapes can contain ‘ultrafine substances that can be taken deep into the lungs, flavorants such as diacetyl, a chemical linked to serious lung disease, volatile organic compounds and heavy metals, such as nickel, tin, and lead.’(美国卫生局局长表示，电子烟可能含有“能被吸入肺部深处的超细物质、香料，诸如二乙酰，一种导致严重肺部疾病的化学物质、挥发性有机化合物以及镍、锡和铅等重金属。”)”可知，美国卫生局局长想要告诉我们电子烟对人们的身体有害，故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段的“A 2019 outbreak of a mysterious vaping-related lung disease among American youth has triggered alarm as well.( 2019年，一种与电子烟有关的神秘肺病在美国年轻人中爆发，也引发了警报。)”和倒数第二段的“One 18-year-old American who vaped for over a year ended up in the hospital with “lungs like a 70-year-old.” (一名18岁的美国人抽了一年多的电子烟，结果因为“像70岁的肺一样”住进了医院。)”可知，美国年轻人的肺部深受电子烟的毒害。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段的“But their use has become controversial (有争议的) in the US and other countries because of warnings about possible long-term health effects, possibly from ingredients besides nicotine in the vape juice or cartridge. (但在美国和其他国家，电子烟的使用引起了争议，因为有警告称，电子烟可能对健康产生长期影响，可能来自电子烟汁或烟盒中除了尼古丁之外的其他成分。)”以及全文可知，作者开篇提到人们在用电子烟替代传统烟，有助于戒烟，但后面大量篇幅都提到电子烟危害人们身体健康，因此推断D项“使用电子烟是帮助戒烟吗？”为最佳标题。故选D。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s a struggle for many of us to get out of the sedentary (久坐的) lifestyle, despite our best intentions. ___36___, the biggest barriers are mental ones. Maybe it’s a lack of self-confidence that keeps you from taking positive steps, or you get easily discouraged and give up. You already know there are many ways and great reasons to exercise — from improving mood, sleep, and health to reducing anxiety. But knowing how and why to exercise can’t get you starting and sticking to your exercise plan. ___37___, you need to follow these steps which can make exercise less painful and more fun. ● Get rid of the all-or-nothing attitude. You don’t have to spend hours in a gym or force yourself into boring or painful activities you hate to experience the physical and emotional benefits of exercise. ___38___. In fact, adding just tiny amounts of physical activity to your weekly routine can have a great effect on your mental and physical health. ● Be kind to yourself. Don’t punish yourself if you miss a workout. ___39___. If you miss a day, consider it a rest day, and remember there’s always tomorrow. If you have a hard time sticking with your workout routine, just try something different. There are plenty of ways to stay active, and at the end of the day, you will find an exercise routine that works for you. ● ___40___. You are not out of shape overnight, and you’re not going to instantly transform your body either. Demanding too much, too soon only leads to dissatisfaction. Instead of paying attention only to results, focus on consistency (连贯性). A. Let it go and be patient B. Share the results with others C. Have reasonable expectations D. If you really want to make exercise a habit E. Remember a little exercise is better than nothing F. If you are having trouble in finding an exercise to do on a daily basis G. While practical concerns like a busy schedule can make exercise challenging 【答案】36. G 37. D 38. E 39. A 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。对于我们中的大多数人而言，摆脱久坐的生活方式是一件难事，而运动对于摆脱久坐有很多益处。本文介绍了如何使运动变得不那么痛苦且更有乐趣的方法。 【36题详解】 空前“It’s a struggle for many of us to get out of the sedentary (久坐的) lifestyle, despite our best intentions.(尽管我们有最好的意图，对我们中的许多人来说，摆脱久坐不动的生活方式是一场斗争)”说明对我们中的大多数人而言，摆脱久坐的生活方式仍是一件难事。空后“the biggest barriers are mental ones(最大的障碍是心理上的障碍)”说明最大的障碍是心理上的。空处内容很可能与心理障碍形成对比，且涉及阻碍我们运动的事情。G项“虽然繁忙的日程安排等实际问题可能会使锻炼具有挑战性”提到了现实生活中的一个实际问题——繁忙的日程，这能导致锻炼变得有挑战性，且与心理障碍形成对比。故选G。 【37题详解】 空前“You already know there are many ways and great reasons to exercise — from improving mood, sleep, and health to reducing anxiety. But knowing how and why to exercise can’t get you starting and sticking to your exercise plan.(你已经知道有很多方法和很好的理由去锻炼——从改善情绪、睡眠和健康到减少焦虑。但是知道如何以及为什么锻炼并不能让你开始并坚持你的锻炼计划)”说明尽管你知道锻炼的多种方法和重要原因，但这些无法帮助你开始并坚持锻炼计划。空后“you need to follow these steps which can make exercise less painful and more fun(你需要遵循这些措施，它们可以让锻炼少一些痛苦，多一些乐趣)”说明需要遵循这些措施以使锻炼变得不那么痛苦且更有乐趣。由此可知，空处内容应是关于让锻炼变成习惯。D项“If you really want to make exercise a habit (如果你真的想让锻炼成为一种习惯)”提供了一个前提条件，表示如果你真的想要使锻炼成为一种习惯，这与空后提到的需要遵循的步骤紧密相关。故选D。 【38题详解】 空前“Get rid of the all-or-nothing attitude. You don’t have to spend hours in a gym or force yourself into boring or painful activities you hate to experience the physical and emotional benefits of exercise.(摆脱孤注一掷的态度。你不必花几个小时在健身房或强迫自己做无聊或痛苦的你不喜欢的活动，为了体验锻炼对身体和情感的好处)”说明摒弃极端的态度，你不用长时间待在健身房或强迫自己做自己讨厌的单调或痛苦的活动来体验锻炼对身体和情感的益处。因此空处需要填入的内容应与对待运动的正确态度有关。E项“Remember a little exercise is better than nothing(请记住，一点运动总比没有好)”与空前提到的极端的态度形成对比，强调即使是少量的锻炼也好过完全不锻炼，且E项中的“a little exercise”与空后的“tiny amounts of physical activity”呼应。故选E。 【39题详解】 空前“Be kind to yourself. Don’t punish yourself if you miss a workout.(善待自己。不要因为错过了锻炼而惩罚自己)”暗示空处填入的内容应与对待错过锻炼的态度有关，尤其是在没有按时每天锻炼时如何保持积极的心态。A项中的“Let it go”与前文的态度一致，强调采取一种轻松态度——随它去吧。A项中的“be patient”呼应后文中的“at the end of the day, you will find an exercise routine that works for you (归根结底，您会找到适合您的锻炼进程)”，因此推断A项“放手，耐心等待”符合句意。故选A。 【40题详解】 根据最后三段的结构特点可知，空处是本段的主旨句。空后“You are not out of shape overnight, and you’re not going to instantly transform your body either. Demanding too much, too soon only leads to dissatisfaction. Instead of paying attention only to results, focus on consistency (连贯性).(你不会一夜之间走样，你也不会立刻改变你的身材。要求太多，太快只会导致不满。与其只关注结果，不如关注连贯性)”讲述你不是一夜之间变得不健康的，你也不可能立刻改变你的身体，接着指出要求太多和太快只会导致不满。由此可推知，本段主要讲述的是要有合理的锻炼期望。故选C。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节 ,满分30分） 第一节：完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分 ,满分15分 阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 , 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 About 15 years ago, I packed my suitcase and traveled to a town a few hours away.

She would sit for hours, lost in art. Trees on her pages seemed to swing in an unseen wind, and the faces she drew wore lifelike expressions. But Amy didn’t look like the art she made. Her clothes were old and had many patches (补丁) that her mother made with care. Amy’s family did not have much money, but they loved each other very much. Her mother worked hard at many jobs to take care of them after Amy’s father got sick and died. Amy had her good times and hard times in school. She loved different corners of the school which were sources of her inspiration and expected the art lesson. Yet other kids’ laughing at her dress made her sad. She wanted to change the situation, but didn’t know how to go about it. Despite this, she would quietly help someone with a hard math problem or pick up garbage on her way home. She always found comfort in her drawing. In the middle of the term, an art contest on the theme of “My Dream” was to be held, which would select the top three winners, and the head teacher would award them prizes. This news thrilled the children, Amy in particular. They enthusiastically registered for the contest and, after thoughtful consideration, finished their own art pieces. The contest organizers gathered all submissions one week later and set up an exhibit showcasing every participant’s work in the school gym. The school gym was filled with viewers as the walls displayed the efforts of the young artists. There were paintings of colorful landscapes where the sun burst through thick clouds. Some students had created portraits (肖像) of their heroes. In this sea of creativity, one painting stood out. In the painting, a community garden was drawn, a place where people from all walks of life were planting seeds together. The heartfelt work drew the viewers into a world where every detail had meaning. The exhibition would last a week and all the students and teachers could vote their favorite work. 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。 Finally came the day when the winners were announced. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The children who had laughed at Amy started to see her in a new way. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Finally came the day when the winners were announced. The head teacher started with the third place winner followed by a boy in the second place. Then the students waited with bated breath for the first place winner to be announced. “First place goes to — Amy!” said the head teacher. After a moment of silence, the crowd clapped. Amy stepped onto the stage to accept the prize, shocked and delighted. When Amy explained her intention of spreading the idea of unity and hope, everyone was moved. After that, things changed. The children who had laughed at Amy started to see her in a new way. They got to know the real Amy — her kindness and her dreams. She wasn’t alone anymore. During breaks, kids crowded around her to see her create pictures, which made her classmates eager to try drawing with their own thoughts, too. Amy’s art became well-known outside of school as well. A local gallery asked to exhibit her best painting. As Amy made more art, she became more confident. Her art changed her life and how others saw art and the world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Amy从小喜欢画画，但是家里贫穷，她的衣服很旧，有许多补丁，虽然她在学校乐于助人，但在学校受到其他孩子嘲笑，一次学校举行画画比赛，Amy兴奋不已的参加比赛，比赛的作品都在学校体育馆展览，其中一幅画受到所有人的喜欢，这幅画正是Amy画的，她的画获得第一名，从此，同学们对Amy的看法变了，再也不嘲笑她，而是向她请教画画的技巧。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“终于到了宣布获奖名单的那一天。”可知，第一段可描写Amy获得第一名的情景。 ②由第二段首句内容“那些曾经嘲笑过艾米孩子们开始以一种新的方式看待她。”可知，第二段可描写同学们开始了解Amy，她不再孤单。 2. 续写线索：受到嘲笑——举行画画比赛——获得第一——同学对Amy改观——不再孤单。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①宣布：announce/declare ②接受：accept/receive ③展览：exhibit/display 情绪类 ①震惊的：shocked/amazed ②高兴的：delighted/overjoyed 【点睛】[高分句型1]When Amy explained her intention of spreading the idea of unity and hope, everyone was moved.

B One Saturday in December, Annacarin Elf, the head of operations at Gothenburg City Library, just happened to walk by her workplace. Noticing that the door was open, she entered the library, and was astonished to see the heartwarming scene that people were using it like on a regular day. It was scheduled to be closed for the New Year holiday. The people in the library behaved as usual. Many were sitting reading newspapers, some families were in the children's section and others were searching for books on the computer. It seemed that Elf's colleagues had simply forgotten to lock the door, and because this popular library is usually open on Saturdays. visitors just assumed they could walk in. Elf called to check with her staff team, before announcing to the people present that the library was about to close. Then she expressed her regret for what had been done wrong and caused them a problem. It later turns out that 446 locals visited the city library borrowing a total of 246 books during the day. What's remarkable is that people checked out their books through the library's electronic self-service system, and that to date, all the books have been returned!

C Birds in North America will no longer be named after people, the American Ornithological Society (美国鸟类学会) announced Wednesday. Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada. “There is power in a name, and some English bird names have associations with the past that continue to be exclusionary (排他的) and harmful today,” the organization’s president, Colleen Handel, said in a statement. “Everyone who loves and cares about birds should be able to enjoy and study them freely.” Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur. “I’m really happy and excited about the announcement,” said Emily Williams, an ornithologist at Georgetown University who was not involved in the decision. She said heated discussions over bird names have been happening within birdwatching communities for the past several years. “Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said. Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly. “The name has come to represent so much more than the work of one person,” Susan Bell, chair of the National Audubon Society’s Board of Directors, told Audubon magazine in March, adding, “We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past.” 28. Why are some examples given in paragraph 3? A. To state naming birds after people is common practice. B. To show birds are closely related to people’s daily life. C. To introduce some famous naturalists to the readers. D. To stress the influence celebrities have on society. 29. How should birds be named according to Emily Williams? A. After their places of birth. B. Based on their communities. C. According to their habits. D. In terms of their living places. 30. What is Susan Bell’s attitude towards the decision of NAS? A. Supportive. B. Carefree. C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic. 31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Rare Species Found in North America B. Bird Names Linking to Human History C. Discussions Caused by Bird Names D. Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year D E-cigarettes are increasingly being used as a nicotine (尼古丁) alternative (替代品) as smokers look for ways to kick their habit — and then stay off cigarettes for good. E-cigarettes work by heating a pure liquid called e-juice — made up of flavorings, propylene glycol, glycerin and often nicotine — until it changes into gas. The use of vaping (电子烟) for tobacco stopping became especially popular in the UK after a study found that e-cigarettes helped 50,000 to 70,000 smokers in England give up smoking in 2017. It is said that vaping cleared the 7000 or more chemicals found in a burning cigarette and its smoke, many of which are harmful, according to Johns Hopkins medicine. But their use has become controversial (有争议的) in the US and other countries because of warnings about possible long-term health effects, possibly from ingredients besides nicotine in the vape juice or cartridge. The US Surgeon General says vapes can contain “ultrafine substances that can be taken deep into the lungs, flavorants such as diacetyl, a chemical linked to serious lung disease, volatile organic compounds and heavy metals, such as nickel, tin, and lead.” What's more, countless studies found teen use is a direct gateway to traditional cigarette smoking at a time when teenager use of e-cigarettes was increasing. A 2019 outbreak of a mysterious vaping-related lung disease among American youth has triggered alarm as well. As of February 2020 the condition had killed at least 68 people and sickened more than 2,807, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. One 18-year-old American who vaped for over a year ended up in the hospital with “lungs like a 70-year-old.” The condition, now known as EVALI (e-cigarette or vaping use-associated lung injury), is strongly linked to e-cigarettes containing vitamin E acetate, a sticky oil substance that can cling to lung tissue. 32. What can we learn about e-cigarettes from the first two paragraphs? A. They consist of gases. B. They contain no nicotine. C. They take the place of cigarettes. D. They were accepted in Britain. 33. What does the US Surgeon General want to tell us about e-cigarettes? A. They contain healthy substances. B. They are harmful to people’s health. C. They can help people stop smoking. D. They are better than traditional cigarettes. 34. What can be inferred about American teenagers? A. E-cigarettes hurt their lungs badly. B. They find a way to anti-smoking. C. E-cigarettes make them look older. D. The US Center stops them smoking. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Harmful E-cigarettes? B. Smoking or Non-Smoking? C. The Popularity of E-cigarettes in the UK? D. Use of E-cigarettes as Anti-smoking Assistance? 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s a struggle for many of us to get out of the sedentary (久坐的) lifestyle, despite our best intentions. ___36___, the biggest barriers are mental ones.

She would sit for hours, lost in art. Trees on her pages seemed to swing in an unseen wind, and the faces she drew wore lifelike expressions. But Amy didn’t look like the art she made. Her clothes were old and had many patches (补丁) that her mother made with care. Amy’s family did not have much money, but they loved each other very much. Her mother worked hard at many jobs to take care of them after Amy’s father got sick and died. Amy had her good times and hard times in school. She loved different corners of the school which were sources of her inspiration and expected the art lesson. Yet other kids’ laughing at her dress made her sad. She wanted to change the situation, but didn’t know how to go about it. Despite this, she would quietly help someone with a hard math problem or pick up garbage on her way home. She always found comfort in her drawing. In the middle of the term, an art contest on the theme of “My Dream” was to be held, which would select the top three winners, and the head teacher would award them prizes. This news thrilled the children, Amy in particular. They enthusiastically registered for the contest and, after thoughtful consideration, finished their own art pieces. The contest organizers gathered all submissions one week later and set up an exhibit showcasing every participant’s work in the school gym. The school gym was filled with viewers as the walls displayed the efforts of the young artists. There were paintings of colorful landscapes where the sun burst through thick clouds. Some students had created portraits (肖像) of their heroes. In this sea of creativity, one painting stood out. In the painting, a community garden was drawn, a place where people from all walks of life were planting seeds together. The heartfelt work drew the viewers into a world where every detail had meaning. The exhibition would last a week and all the students and teachers could vote their favorite work. 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。 Finally came the day when the winners were announced. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The children who had laughed at Amy started to see her in a new way. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$英语听力模拟。试题38，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。I didn't catch the sports news on T.

We have found IT difficult to keep a collection that can meet your needs. Our library has quite a long history, and IT first came to use on march twenty nine, nineteen fifty four. Over the years, IT has built up a collection of nearly ten thousand books. IT is a sad day for us, but the decision has been made. We really hope to see you again some day. Hello everyone.
