A shopping festival. C. A motor cyele festival. 20. Who is Judith Curtis’s friend? A. Laurence. B. Anne. C. James 【答案】18. B 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【原文】We are receiving news that next year’s TT races on the Isle of Man have been canceled due to the on-going COVID-19 emergency. The festival, worth about £30 million to the island economy, brings tens of thousands of visitors each year. It has been held every year since 1907 and expected to take place from May 29th to June12th. Enterprise Minister Laurence Skelly said the “logical decision” to cancel the event for a second year was needed to protect residents and visitors. The 2020 TT Festival was canceled in March, as the first wave of COVID-19 spread through much of Europe. The cancelation of next year’s motor cycle festival is another huge hit for the island’s tourism industry. Resident Anne Rostron, whose husband Brian is a former TT rider, said she could see why the decision had been taken, because it would be “letting everybody in” to the island. Her friend Judith Curtis said there were arguments for and against canceling the event, adding, “It’s going to hit the island again financially, but you’ve got to think about the safety of the people.” James McLaren said although it would be “a disappointment”, it was “better to be safe than sorry”. 第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的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 The Best History Books of the Month The Churchill Sisters $23.99 By Dr. Rachel Trethewey New Release in 20th Century History of the UK What’s it like to grow up as the daughter of Winston Churchill, the man who led the country to victory against Nazi Germany in WWII? The book brings the close relationship between Diana, Sarah, and Mary to vivid life, showing how they were, in a way, mirrors of their family and also mirrors of their time. The Bright Ages $23.22 By David Perry For many of us, the Middle Ages is a time of darkness.

This popular history will clarify a fact—that period wasn’t just the Dark Ages but the Bright Ages. Audio edition available. A Killer by Design $25.99 By Ann Burgess New Release in 20th Century History of the U.S. Imagine reading the experiences, thoughts, and breakthroughs of a woman not only working on the most disturbing serial crimes of the past century, but also involved in the creation of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit.

Sapiens $35.99 By Yuval Harari Book 2 of 2: A Picture History In this second book in the best-selling graphic novel series, we start off 12, 000 years ago and move forward from there.

Now, the 87-year-old grandmother is the proud author of six books. She learned her first character in 1996, after her husband died in a car accident, when her daughter Zhang Ailing suggested that she learn to read to take her mind off the loneliness and sorrow. Zhang says that her mother had her own way of learning. Whenever she came across characters she didn’t know at bus stops or shop signs, she found someone to ask. Once Jiang had learned enough characters, Zhang started giving her books to read. Enjoying the books, Jiang told her daughter that she wanted to write down her own stories to share. She first put pen to paper in 2012, at the age of 75. It was not easy. Sometimes,completing a single sentence could take a day. Jiang usually started writing at 3 or 4 am, and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied. Zhang began publishing her mother’s stories on social media platforms in 2013. When Zhang and her mother drew the attention of Zhang’s writer friends, the pair made a decision to publish them. The first book, Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty, was published later that year, and proved to be a success. Some critics even praised it as the “live history of a nation plagued by tough times”. The book earned Jiang a lot of fans and sympathy. So far, the elderly woman has published six books, totaling more than 600, 000characters in length. She lives a healthy life, exercising every day, drinking milk and soy milk, as well as having regular exercise. “If I could live as long as 130, would you still say that it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asks, jokingly. 24. Why did Jiang learn to read in her later years? A. To become a proud author. B. To make up for not going to school. C. To encourage her friends and families. D. To reduce the impact of her husband’s death. 25. What made Jiang decide to publish her first book? A. A strong inner desire. B. The attention from other writers. C. Her daughter’s encouragement. D. The development of social media. 26. What dose the underlined word“plagued”in paragraph 4 mean? A. Aided. B. Enlarged. C. Troubled. D. Defeated. 27. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. One is never too old to learn. B. All roads lead to Rome. C. Where there is life, there is love. D. Gold can’t be pure and man can’t be perfect. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章通过描述张爱玲的母亲姜淑梅在60岁以后开始学习汉字并成为作家的故事，告诉我们：活到老，学到老。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“She learned her first character in 1996, after her husband died in a car accident, when her daughter Zhang Ailing suggested that she learn to read to take her mind off the loneliness and sorrow.(1996年，她的丈夫在一场车祸中去世，她的女儿张爱玲建议她学习阅读，以消除她的孤独和悲伤，她学会了第一个汉字。)”可知，姜女士在晚年学习阅读，以减少丈夫去世的影响。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“When Zhang and her mother drew the attention of Zhang’s writer friends, the pair made a decision to publish them.(当张和她的母亲引起了她的作家朋友们的注意时，两人决定出版这些作品。)”可知，受到其他作家的关注，姜决定出版她的第一本书。故选B。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“The first book, Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty, was published later that year, and proved to be a success.(她的第一本书《乱时候，穷时候》于当年晚些时候出版，并取得了成功。)”可知，姜的第一本书很成功，结合下文“by tough times”，因此推断画线句句意：一些评论家甚至称赞它是“一个饱受艰难时期困扰的国家的活生生的历史”。plagued意为“困扰”，与C项意思接近。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“So far, the elderly woman has published six books, totaling more than 600, 000characters in length. She lives a healthy life, exercising every day, drinking milk and soy milk, as well as having regular exercise. “If I could live as long as 130, would you still say that it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asks, jokingly.(到目前为止，这位老妇人已经出版了六本书，总长度超过60万字。她过着健康的生活，每天锻炼，喝牛奶和豆浆，并定期锻炼。“如果我能活到130岁，你还会说我60岁以后再开始太迟吗?”她开玩笑地问道。)”可推知，从姜的故事，我们知道活到老，学到老的道理。故选A。 C Researchers in Australia and the US are starting a multi-million dollar project to bring the Tasmanian tiger, nicknamed thylacine(袋狼), back from extinction. The last known one died in 1939. The team say it can be recreated using stem cells(干细胞)and gene-editing(基因编辑)technology, and the first thylacine could be reintroduced to the wild in 10 years’ time. They plan to take stem cells from a living species with similar DNA, and then use gene-editing technology to ”bring back“ the extinct species - or an extremely close one of it. It would be a great achievement for the researchers attempting it, and require a number of scientific breakthroughs. The population of Tasmanian tigers dropped when humans arrived in Australia tens of thousands of years ago, and again when dingoes - a species of wild dog - appeared.Eventually, the species only lived free on the island of Tasmania, and was finally hunted to extinction. If scientists were to succeed, it would mark the first “de-extinction“ event in history, but many outside experts doubt it, and believe that the project is more about media attention for the scientists and less about doing serious science. The idea of bringing back the extinct has been around for more than 20 years. In 1999, the Australian Museum started to pursue a project to clone the Tasmanian tiger, and various attempts have been made ever since to get or rebuild DNA from samples. The US firm made headlines last year with its plans to use similar gene editing technology to bring the woolly mammoth back to life - a technological achievement yet to be made. 28. Which of the following might be the major reason for thylacine’s extinction? A. Habitat loss. B. Climate change. C. Human activities. D. Wild dog protection. 29. What do many outside experts think of bringing back extinct thylacine? A. It will make history. B. It is particularly difficult. C. It deserves greater attention. D. It is more of a piece of eye-catching news. 30. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Future for bringing back the extinct. B. Benefits of bringing back the extinct. C. Previous efforts to bring back the extinct. D. Technology needed to bring back the extinct. 31. In which column of a magazine can we read this passage? A. Science and Technology. B. History and Traditions. C. Nature and Environment. D. Culture and Society. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚和美国的研究人员正在开展一个项目：使用干细胞和基因编辑技术来重建袋狼。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的“The population of Tasmanian tigers dropped when humans arrived in Australia tens of thousands of years ago, and again when dingoes - a species of wild dog - appeared. Eventually, the species only lived free on the island of Tasmania, and was finally hunted to extinction. (当数万年前人类来到澳大利亚时，塔斯马尼亚虎的数量下降了，当澳洲野狗(一种野狗)出现时，塔斯马尼亚虎的数量又下降了。最终，这个物种只在塔斯马尼亚岛上自由生活，并最终被猎杀灭绝。)”可知，塔斯马尼亚虎，也就是袋狼的灭绝的主要原因可能是人类活动。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒是第二段“If scientists were to succeed, it would mark the first “de-extinction“ event in history, but many outside experts doubt it, and believe that the project is more about media attention for the scientists and less about doing serious science.( 如果科学家们成功了，这将标志着历史上第一次“灭绝动物复活”事件，但许多外部专家对此表示怀疑，并认为该项目更多地是媒体对科学家的关注，而不是做严肃的科学研究。)”可知，许多外部科学家认为恢复灭绝的袋狼更像是一条引人注目的新闻，故选D。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“The idea of bringing back the extinct has been around for more than 20 years. In 1999, the Australian Museum started to pursue a project to clone the Tasmanian tiger, and various attempts have been made ever since to get or rebuild DNA from samples. The US firm made headlines last year with its plans to use similar gene editing technology to bring the woolly mammoth back to life - a technological achievement yet to be made.(复活灭绝物种的想法已经存在了20多年。1999年，澳大利亚博物馆开始进行一项克隆塔斯马尼亚虎的项目，从那以后，人们进行了各种尝试，从样本中获取或重建DNA。去年，这家美国公司计划利用类似的基因编辑技术让长毛象复活，这一技术成就还有待实现。)”可知，本段主要讲述了一些恢复灭绝物种的以前的努力，1999年，澳大利亚博物馆开始进行一项克隆塔斯马尼亚虎的项目，去年，美国公司计划利用类似的基因编辑技术让长毛象复活。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Researchers in Australia and the US are starting a multi-million dollar project to bring the Tasmanian tiger, nicknamed thylacine(袋狼), back from extinction. The last known one died in 1939.( 澳大利亚和美国的研究人员正在启动一项耗资数百万美元的项目，以拯救外号为袋狼的塔斯马尼亚虎，使其免于灭绝。最后一个已知的人死于1939年。)”以及下文内容可知，文章主要讲述介绍了澳大利亚和美国的研究人员正在开展一个项目：使用干细胞和基因编辑技术来重建袋狼。因此推动最有可能来自科学技术栏目，故选A。 D Years ago, as a business reporter, I interviewed an advertising manager. I was there to ask about the latest campaign. But when I sat down, he wanted to talk about writing novels. He spent hours meeting with clients(客户), but he dreamed of being a novelist instead. I remember thinking: Sure, everybody dreams to be a novelist. Who doesn’t? A decade later, however, I was surprised to see the same person on TV, holding up his new book. James Patterson had developed into a best-selling author. He has since published more than 100 New York Times best sellers. “I never thought of myself as an advertising person,” he told me when I asked how he’d done it. “I always planned to be a writer.” Mr. Patterson’s ability to sec himself as a writer shows a term(术语) “possible selves.” It describes how people envision their futures: what they may become, or want to become, etc. The term, created in 1986 by the social psychologists Hazel Markus and Paula Nurius,grew out of research on self-concept and self-perception(自我知觉).While self-concepts, like “I am a kind person” or “I am a good parent”, are based on the present, the researchers found that people are also influenced by possible selves - what they might become in the future and how they might change. These possible selves,both positive and negative,are closely related to motivation (动机).In a small study, when young adults were made to envision themselves as either regular exercisers (hoped-for selves) or inactive (feared selves),both groups exercised more in the weeks afterward. But researchers have found that imagining positive possible selves can improve health and reduce depression by holding out the hope for a better future. A possible self can help you realize daydreams, which seem to be unrealistic, “if you build a bridge from your ‘now’ self to the possible self,” Dr. Markus said. But how do we build that bridge? 32. What was the author’s attitude towards James Patterson’s dream at first? A. Doubtful. B. Curious. C. Worried. D. Disappointed. 33. What does the underlined word “envision” mean in the fourth paragraph? A. Face. B. Imagine. C. Make. D. Determine. 34. What can we learn about “possible self” from paragraphs 5 and 6? A. It is a necessity for a better future. B. It refers to a person’s present behaviors. C. Negative possible selves cannot inspire people. D. Imagining positive possible selves can promote one’s health. 35. What will be talked about in the following paragraphs? A. How a possible self can be of help. B. How to connect “now” self and possible self. C. What could be done to change one’s possible self. D. What motivation is needed to have a positive self. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者曾经采访一个广告经理，这位经理说自己想成为作家，多年后，这位经理真的梦想成真。作者由此了解了一个专业术语“可能的自我”，每个人都会受到可能的自我的影响。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“I remember thinking: Sure, everybody dreams to be a novelist. Who doesn’t?(我记得我当时想:当然，每个人都梦想成为小说家。谁不？)”可推断，作者最初听到这位广告经理的梦想时感到怀疑。故选A。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下一句“what they may become, or want to become, etc.(他们可能成为什么，或者想成为什么，等等。)”可知，下文是人们对自己未来的畅想。选项A“Face (面对)”；选项B“Imagine (想象)”；选项C“Make (制作)”；选项D“Determine (决定)”。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第六段“But researchers have found that imagining positive possible selves can improve health and reduce depression by holding out the hope for a better future.(但研究人员发现，想象积极可能的自我可以通过对更美好的未来抱有希望来改善健康和减少抑郁。)”可知，想象积极的可能的自我对我们的健康有好处。故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“A possible self can help you realize daydreams, which seem to be unrealistic, “if you build a bridge from your ‘now’ self to the possible self,” Dr. Markus said. But how do we build that bridge?(“如果你在‘现在的’自己和‘可能的’自己之间架起一座桥梁，” Markus博士说，“一个可能的自我可以帮助你实现白日梦，而这些白日梦似乎是不现实的。”但我们要如何搭建那座桥呢？)”可知，本段主要讲述的是如果在‘现在的’自己和‘可能的’自己之间架起一座桥梁，一个可能的自我可以帮助我们实现白日梦。再根据最后一句“But how do we build that bridge?”可知，接下来文章将会介绍如何建立‘现在的’自己和‘可能的’自己之间的一座桥梁。故选B。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Located on cliffs above a river, Hongyadong is a stilt-house complex (高脚屋建筑群) in traditional style in Chongqing. The past few years have seen an explosive increase in the number of visitors. ____36____ For a while, it became the biggest attraction in China after only the Forbidden City, according to travel website Mafengwo. ____37____ Instead of having fun, some people now went to remote strawberry farms to take photos to impress their friends on Instagram. But unlike Instagram users, Douyin’s fans commonly use the app to watch popular videos posted by strangers. In China, uploading a picture or video from a beautiful spot to sites such as Douyin is known as daka. The word is also used to refer to the practice of recording your presence at a location that has already become hot, such as Hongyadong. The aim is simply to show that you have also been to the places that are popular. ____38____ ____39____ So-called dakazu—“daka tribes”—can be found in Chongqing and other cities. Visitors try to check in at as many hot locations as possible within a single day. ____40____ Companies offer “daka tours”. Douyin users can use the app to create “daka videos”: super-speed slideshows of themselves at daka sites. A. Social media has transformed tourism worldwide. B. Daka is catching on with local residents in many cities. C. The beauty of the attraction is less important than being there. D. The main reason, it seems, has been its sudden popularity on Douyin. E. Guides can be found online, to show the most efficient ways to achieve this. F. A subculture has developed among young people who accept daka as a lifestyle. G. With the popularity of social media, especially Douyin, there has been a boost in tourism. 【答案】36. D 37. A 38. C 39. F 40. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是社交媒体改变了世界各地的旅游业及打卡文化的兴起。 【36题详解】 D选项“主要原因似乎是它在抖音上突然流行起来。”说明了上文“Located on cliffs above a river, Hongyadong is a stilt-house complex (高脚屋建筑群) in traditional style in Chongqing. The past few years have seen an explosive increase in the number of visitors. (洪崖洞位于一条河上的悬崖上，是重庆传统风格的高脚屋建筑群。在过去的几年里，游客数量呈爆炸式增长)”洪崖洞游客数量爆炸式增长的原因。故选D项。 【37题详解】 由下文“Instead of having fun, some people now went to remote strawberry farms to take photos to impress their friends on Instagram. (现在，一些人不再享受乐趣，而是去偏远的草莓农场拍照，以便在Instagram上给朋友留下深刻印象)”可知，与过去相比，现在人们去旅游不是为了享受乐趣，而是为了拍照发社交媒体上让朋友们看，所以社交媒体改变了旅游业，A选项“社交媒体改变了世界各地的旅游业。”承接下文讲旅游业改变的具体例子。故选A项。 【38题详解】 C选项“吸引力的美不如在那里重要。”承接上文“The word is also used to refer to the practice of recording your presence at a location that has already become hot, such as Hongyadong. The aim is simply to show that you have also been to the places that are popular.

She learned her first character in 1996, after her husband died in a car accident, when her daughter Zhang Ailing suggested that she learn to read to take her mind off the loneliness and sorrow. Zhang says that her mother had her own way of learning. Whenever she came across characters she didn’t know at bus stops or shop signs, she found someone to ask. Once Jiang had learned enough characters, Zhang started giving her books to read. Enjoying the books, Jiang told her daughter that she wanted to write down her own stories to share. She first put pen to paper in 2012, at the age of 75. It was not easy. Sometimes,completing a single sentence could take a day. Jiang usually started writing at 3 or 4 am, and revised the pieces several times until she was satisfied. Zhang began publishing her mother’s stories on social media platforms in 2013. When Zhang and her mother drew the attention of Zhang’s writer friends, the pair made a decision to publish them. The first book, Time of Trouble, Time of Poverty, was published later that year, and proved to be a success. Some critics even praised it as the “live history of a nation plagued by tough times”. The book earned Jiang a lot of fans and sympathy. So far, the elderly woman has published six books, totaling more than 600, 000characters in length. She lives a healthy life, exercising every day, drinking milk and soy milk, as well as having regular exercise. “If I could live as long as 130, would you still say that it is too late for me to start after 60?” she asks, jokingly. 24. Why did Jiang learn to read in her later years? A. To become a proud author. B. To make up for not going to school. C. To encourage her friends and families. D. To reduce the impact of her husband’s death. 25. What made Jiang decide to publish her first book? A. A strong inner desire. B. The attention from other writers. C. Her daughter’s encouragement. D. The development of social media. 26. What dose the underlined word“plagued”in paragraph 4 mean? A. Aided. B. Enlarged. C. Troubled. D. Defeated. 27. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. One is never too old to learn. B. All roads lead to Rome. C. Where there is life, there is love. D. Gold can’t be pure and man can’t be perfect. C Researchers in Australia and the US are starting a multi-million dollar project to bring the Tasmanian tiger, nicknamed thylacine(袋狼), back from extinction. The last known one died in 1939. The team say it can be recreated using stem cells(干细胞)and gene-editing(基因编辑)technology, and the first thylacine could be reintroduced to the wild in 10 years’ time. They plan to take stem cells from a living species with similar DNA, and then use gene-editing technology to ”bring back“ the extinct species - or an extremely close one of it. It would be a great achievement for the researchers attempting it, and require a number of scientific breakthroughs. The population of Tasmanian tigers dropped when humans arrived in Australia tens of thousands of years ago, and again when dingoes - a species of wild dog - appeared.Eventually, the species only lived free on the island of Tasmania, and was finally hunted to extinction. If scientists were to succeed, it would mark the first “de-extinction“ event in history, but many outside experts doubt it, and believe that the project is more about media attention for the scientists and less about doing serious science. The idea of bringing back the extinct has been around for more than 20 years. In 1999, the Australian Museum started to pursue a project to clone the Tasmanian tiger, and various attempts have been made ever since to get or rebuild DNA from samples. The US firm made headlines last year with its plans to use similar gene editing technology to bring the woolly mammoth back to life - a technological achievement yet to be made. 28. Which of the following might be the major reason for thylacine’s extinction? A. Habitat loss. B. Climate change. C. Human activities. D. Wild dog protection. 29. What do many outside experts think of bringing back extinct thylacine? A It will make history. B. It is particularly difficult. C. It deserves greater attention. D. It is more of a piece of eye-catching news. 30. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Future for bringing back the extinct. B. Benefits of bringing back the extinct. C. Previous efforts to bring back the extinct. D. Technology needed to bring back the extinct. 31. In which column of a magazine can we read this passage? A. Science and Technology. B. History and Traditions. C. Nature and Environment. D. Culture and Society. D Years ago, as a business reporter, I interviewed an advertising manager. I was there to ask about the latest campaign. But when I sat down, he wanted to talk about writing novels. He spent hours meeting with clients(客户), but he dreamed of being a novelist instead. I remember thinking: Sure, everybody dreams to be a novelist. Who doesn’t? A decade later, however, I was surprised to see the same person on TV, holding up his new book. James Patterson had developed into a best-selling author. He has since published more than 100 New York Times best sellers. “I never thought of myself as an advertising person,” he told me when I asked how he’d done it. “I always planned to be a writer.” Mr. Patterson’s ability to sec himself as a writer shows a term(术语) “possible selves.” It describes how people envision their futures: what they may become, or want to become, etc. The term, created in 1986 by the social psychologists Hazel Markus and Paula Nurius,grew out of research on self-concept and self-perception(自我知觉).While self-concepts, like “I am a kind person” or “I am a good parent”, are based on the present, the researchers found that people are also influenced by possible selves - what they might become in the future and how they might change. These possible selves,both positive and negative,are closely related to motivation (动机).In a small study, when young adults were made to envision themselves as either regular exercisers (hoped-for selves) or inactive (feared selves),both groups exercised more in the weeks afterward. But researchers have found that imagining positive possible selves can improve health and reduce depression by holding out the hope for a better future. A possible self can help you realize daydreams, which seem to be unrealistic, “if you build a bridge from your ‘now’ self to the possible self,” Dr. Markus said. But how do we build that bridge? 32. What was the author’s attitude towards James Patterson’s dream at first? A. Doubtful. B. Curious. C. Worried. D. Disappointed. 33. What does the underlined word “envision” mean in the fourth paragraph? A. Face. B. Imagine. C. Make. D. Determine. 34. What can we learn about “possible self” from paragraphs 5 and 6? A. It is a necessity for a better future. B. It refers to a person’s present behaviors. C. Negative possible selves cannot inspire people. D. Imagining positive possible selves can promote one’s health. 35. What will be talked about in the following paragraphs? A. How a possible self can be of help. B. How to connect “now” self and possible self. C. What could be done to change one’s possible self. D. What motivation is needed to have a positive self. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Located on cliffs above a river, Hongyadong is a stilt-house complex (高脚屋建筑群) in traditional style in Chongqing.
