Wang Xiangjun is the first blind student to take college entrance examination in Anhui. She went to a music college in Tianjin in 2015. It’s never an easy thing for blind people to do that.
Wang was blind when she was born. At the age of eight, she started to learn to play the piano. The first problem for Wang was to find the keys. She had to listen to the melody (旋律) again and again, keep it in mind and then practice playing it over and over again. She worked very hard and played better and better. Music made her confident and happy.
“Many kind people helped me over the past years. I wish to pass on the love and kindness to more blind children by working as a teacher,” said Wang after she graduated from college in 2019.
Her dream came true soon. She became a piano teacher in the Hefei Special Education Center that year. Now Wang lives a busy but happy life. “All of my students are so lovely. I know their difficulties in learning. I can teach them with my experience and let them know there is hope and a bright future ahead,” said Wang.

Running regularly helps you keep fit. That’s why millions of people run several days a week and regularly take part in races. While running, some runners can do something good for others. They collect money for their run and give it to a charity (慈善机构). Some charity runners run a full marathon (马拉松) dressed in colorful clothes to collect more money for their charity.
Travis Snyder from the US had been thinking for some time about an idea of running for fun. Professional runners and other people could run together. In 2012 he organized the first “Color Run—The happiest 5K (kilometer) on the earth”. It started with six thousand runners in Phoenix, Arizona, and is now held every year in many cities around the world, with millions of runners.
The idea is simple: you start wearing something white, and at every kilometer people spray and paint you in different colors: 1K is yellow, 2K is blue, 3K is green, 4K is pink, and 5K is brown.
Why do people go on a Color Run? Because “it’s healthy, fun and colorful”, as one runner Pierre Hoffman said.
37. Some runners run a full marathon in colorful clothes in order to __________.
A. live a simple life B. win the game
C. raise money for charity D. build up friendship
38. Who organized the first “Color Run”?
A. Pierre Hoffman. B. Travis Snyder.
C. Professional runners. D. Charity workers.
39. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A. Running for Fun B. Holding a Race C. Different Runners D. Colorful Clothes

In 2014, a university student went with friends for a birthday celebration to Beijing Zoo. Little did he know that a chance turning up at the aquarium (水族馆) there would excite a lifelong passion. As Xu Yitang looked at the coral (珊瑚) in the tank, a sense of wonder washed over him.
After he first saw coral at the aquarium, he often went to the local market to learn about coral farming. He also searched for information online. Before long, he set up a small fish tank at home and started cultivating coral.
“The coral organism is easily destroyed and has extremely high requirements for water quality,” recalls Xu. “When I started cultivating coral, its state was not good.” As Xu gained knowledge about coral, his coral gradually started to grow well.
Xu, a Beijing native, has now lived on the tropical island of Hainan Province, where he serves as a coral conservationist (保护主义者). Each day, he spends several hours diving deep under the waves to observe and record the growth and development of the creatures (生物) in coral reefs, known as “tropical rainforests” and “underwater gardens” of the ocean, providing a home for a quarter of all marine life. He aims to encourage individuals to take action in protecting coral reefs and the ocean as a whole from the destructive impact of climate change and human activities. “Understanding the species is the first step toward effective protection,” he says.
While pursuing his passion to protect coral, he met his life partner, Liu Xiwen, through their shared hobby of diving in Hainan. “Unlike many young people who care about their outfit and appearance, he only focuses on protecting coral,” says Liu. “Despite his skin peeling for spending long hours in the seawater, his attitude is different from what I’ve seen in most young people, and it’s attractive to me.”
40. What leads to Xu’s career choice?
A. A trip to Beijing Zoo. B. His hobby of coral farming.
C. His love for visiting aquariums. D. Online information about coral.
41. What does the underlined word “cultivating” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Finding. B. Changing. C. Growing. D. Harvesting.
42. What is Xu’s final goal?
A. To build a shelter for all marine life. B. To protect coral reefs and the ocean.
C. To reduce human impact on the ocean. D. To learn about the creatures in coral reefs.
43. How does Xu’s life partner feel about his work?
A. Worried. B. Regretful. C. Curious. D. Proud.

For late 19th-century North Americans and Europeans, a display of tableware (餐具) could show much about someone’s social position, as the wealthy took great care to get different kinds of forks for everything. Before the 18th century, people of all classes usually ate with a knife and a spoon.
The fork’s path to the table was hard-won and slow. In ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, forks were used for slicing food into pieces or lifting meat from a pot or fire.
Following a reduction in size, the fork appeared to have entered dining areas in the courts of the Middle East and Byzantine Empire by the 8th and 9th centuries, and became common among wealthy families there by the 10th century. Early in the 11th century, it appeared in various pieces of European art. In the late 11th century, St. Peter Damian from Ostia wrote about a Byzantine princess who used forks and regarded her dying of a disease as punishment (惩罚) for such “luxury” (奢侈).
The fork’s slow conquest of Europe was carried out from Italy. Motivated by the same concerns for hygiene (卫生), forks were bought by wealthy Britons, inspired by Queen Victoria, who regarded fork use as a sign of good manners.
The fork’s introduction to North America dates back to 1633, when John Winthrop, a founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, was given a set of forks as presents. The Industrial Revolution strengthened the fork’s presence on dining room tables as production of flatware became less expensive. Writing in 1896 in Social ETiquette, Maud C. Cooke declared the fork had finally conquered the knife in America and “any attempt to give the knife importance at table is looked upon as an offense (冒犯) against good taste.”
44. What can we learn about forks from paragraph 1?
A. They were used improperly in the 18th century.
B. They had many different types in the 19th century.
C. They were popular in Europe before the 18th century.
D. They led to North American’s rise in social position.
45. What was a function of forks in ancient Egypt?
A. To eat food. B. To decorate tables.
C. To cut food. D. To create works of art.
46. Who was against the use of forks?
A. St. Peter Damian. B. Queen Victoria.
C. John Winthrop. D. Maud C. Cooke.
47. What marked the beginning of the fork’s introduction to North America?
A. The appearance of flatware.
B. The start of the Industrial Revolution.
C. John Winthrop receiving forks as presents.
D. Maud C. Cooke writing Social Etiquette.

It is fun to wear it,” said the young man. “Today, it is still my favorite Hanfu style.” Every time he puts it on, he feels as if he has travelled back to ancient times.
Since then, Hanfu has helped Rian learn more about China. In the past, the only thing he knew about the country was that it had a long history and a rich culture. But now Hanfu has shown him more details about Chinese culture.

第二部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节 单项填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1. —Ms. Du, could you tell me something about lion dance?
—______. It’s usually performed by two people dressed in a lion costume.
A. No way B. No problem C. Take it easy D. It doesn’t matter
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查情景交际。句意:——杜小姐,你能告诉我一些关于舞狮的事情吗? ——没有问题。它通常由两个人穿着狮子的服装表演。A. No way不可能;B. No problem没问题;C. Take it easy放松,不要紧张;D. It doesn’t matter没关系。第一个人请求第二个人讲述狮子舞的事,第二个人进行了讲述,所以第二个人的回答用No problem“没问题”符合语境。故选B项。
2. (2014·江西)They chose Tom to be ________captain of the team because they knew he was _______smart leader.
A. a; the B. the; the
C. the; a D. a; a
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查冠词。句意: 他们选了汤姆为这个队的队长,因为他们知道汤姆是个聪明的领导。captain后跟了个介词短语of the team作定语,表特指,用定冠词the修饰;后一空表泛指(一个聪明的领导者),故选C。
考点:考查冠词用法
【名师点睛】冠词在高考中是难点也是最容易得分的题型,只要弄清楚冠词规则即可轻松锁定答案。就本题而言,考查的是冠词the和a,考生在做题时,要明确出题人考查的点,the captain就是特指的人——领导,比如我们会说,the president;a 就是一般的冠词,放在名词前,比如a book。学生在平时应该多积累这些包含冠词的短语和句型。
3. —Hi, Claire, are you free next week?
—Hmm… sorry, next week is quite ______ for me, Jack.
A. full B. fine C. exciting D. comfortable

In 2014, a university student went with friends for a birthday celebration to Beijing Zoo. Little did he know that a chance turning up at the aquarium (水族馆) there would excite a lifelong passion. As Xu Yitang looked at the coral (珊瑚) in the tank, a sense of wonder washed over him.
After he first saw coral at the aquarium, he often went to the local market to learn about coral farming. He also searched for information online. Before long, he set up a small fish tank at home and started cultivating coral.
“The coral organism is easily destroyed and has extremely high requirements for water quality,” recalls Xu. “When I started cultivating coral, its state was not good.” As Xu gained knowledge about coral, his coral gradually started to grow well.
Xu, a Beijing native, has now lived on the tropical island of Hainan Province, where he serves as a coral conservationist (保护主义者). Each day, he spends several hours diving deep under the waves to observe and record the growth and development of the creatures (生物) in coral reefs, known as “tropical rainforests” and “underwater gardens” of the ocean, providing a home for a quarter of all marine life. He aims to encourage individuals to take action in protecting coral reefs and the ocean as a whole from the destructive impact of climate change and human activities. “Understanding the species is the first step toward effective protection,” he says.
While pursuing his passion to protect coral, he met his life partner, Liu Xiwen, through their shared hobby of diving in Hainan. “Unlike many young people who care about their outfit and appearance, he only focuses on protecting coral,” says Liu. “Despite his skin peeling for spending long hours in the seawater, his attitude is different from what I’ve seen in most young people, and it’s attractive to me.”
40. What leads to Xu’s career choice?
A. A trip to Beijing Zoo. B. His hobby of coral farming.
C. His love for visiting aquariums. D. Online information about coral.
41. What does the underlined word “cultivating” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Finding. B. Changing. C. Growing. D. Harvesting.
42. What is Xu’s final goal?
A. To build a shelter for all marine life. B. To protect coral reefs and the ocean.
C. To reduce human impact on the ocean. D. To learn about the creatures in coral reefs.
43. How does Xu’s life partner feel about his work?
A. Worried. B. Regretful. C. Curious. D. Proud.

For late 19th-century North Americans and Europeans, a display of tableware (餐具) could show much about someone’s social position, as the wealthy took great care to get different kinds of forks for everything. Before the 18th century, people of all classes usually ate with a knife and a spoon.
The fork’s path to the table was hard-won and slow. In ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, forks were used for slicing food into pieces or lifting meat from a pot or fire.
Following a reduction in size, the fork appeared to have entered dining areas in the courts of the Middle East and Byzantine Empire by the 8th and 9th centuries, and became common among wealthy families there by the 10th century. Early in the 11th century, it appeared in various pieces of European art. In the late 11th century, St. Peter Damian from Ostia wrote about a Byzantine princess who used forks and regarded her dying of a disease as punishment (惩罚) for such “luxury” (奢侈).
The fork’s slow conquest of Europe was carried out from Italy. Motivated by the same concerns for hygiene (卫生), forks were bought by wealthy Britons, inspired by Queen Victoria, who regarded fork use as a sign of good manners.
The fork’s introduction to North America dates back to 1633, when John Winthrop, a founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, was given a set of forks as presents. The Industrial Revolution strengthened the fork’s presence on dining room tables as production of flatware became less expensive. Writing in 1896 in Social ETiquette, Maud C. Cooke declared the fork had finally conquered the knife in America and “any attempt to give the knife importance at table is looked upon as an offense (冒犯) against good taste.”

A. They were used improperly in the 18th century.
B. They had many different types in the 19th century.
C. They were popular in Europe before the 18th century.
D. They led to North American’s rise in social position.
45. What was a function of forks in ancient Egypt?
A. To eat food. B. To decorate tables.
C. To cut food. D. To create works of art.
46. Who was against the use of forks?
A. St. Peter Damian. B. Queen Victoria.
