A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述从初中到高一对于初升高的 学生们是一个很大的挑战，文章也介绍了在这个时期应对问题的几 种方式。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Going from middle school to freshman year of high school is a big challenge.(从初中到高一是一个很大的挑战。)”可知，本句提出 了话题“新生入学是一个挑战”，而下文中出现了小标题，说明这里 需要一个过渡句承上启下，G项“Here are some ways to help you deal with anxiety and prepare for the first year.(以下是一些帮助你处理焦虑 情绪并为第一年做好准备的方法。)”是一个总起下文的句子，且句 中“help you deal with anxiety and prepare for the first year(帮助你处理 焦虑情绪并为第一年做好准备)”是对上文中“挑战”的应对，符合语 境。故选 G项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Getting to know people you haven’t met before is a great way to broaden your horizons.(结识你从未见过的人是拓宽你视野的好方 法。)”可知，与陌生人接触是可以增加人脉的方法之一，而空后内 容“Simply sitting with a new person at lunch can be enough to get the ball rolling.(仅仅是和一个陌生人共进午餐就足以让事情开始发 展。)”提出的“共进午餐”就是一个“与陌生人接触”的举例。由此推 知，设空句作为中间句，应是一个过渡句，起到引出后文举例的作 用。C项“If you’re nervous, start small.(如果你紧张，从小事做起。)” 中“start small”可以对应“at lunch”这件小事。故选 C项。 38题详解】 根据后文“They might be able to show you around the campus, which will make you a bit more comfortable as you go on with your freshman year.(他们可能会带你参观校园，这会让你在高一的时候更舒服一 些。)”可知，有可能会有人帮助你，带你参观校园，由此可推知， 设空句应提及是“谁”。F项“If you worry about the unknown, reach out to the school and see if someone can help.(如果你对未知的事情感到担 心，那就联系学校，看看是否有人能帮你。)”中提到了联系学校， 且“someone”与后文的“They”相呼应，符合语境。故选 F项。 【39题详解】 根据上文“High school and middle school are very different in studying.(高中和初中在学习上有很大的不同。)”和下文“You can buy a planner and spend a few minutes each night going over the notes you took in class that day. (你可以买一个记事本，每天晚上花几分钟复习 你当天在课堂上做的笔记。)”可知，本段主要讲述在学习方面初高 中的不同，作者也给出具体的建议：对于学习有所整理。E项“Try to get as organised as possible so you can stay on top of your studies.(尽 【 可能有条理，这样你就可以学得很好。)”符合语境，其中“as organized as possible(尽可能有条理)”与小标题“Get organized.(要有条 理。)”对应。故选 E项。 【40题详解】 设空为本段小标题，应是本段核心内容的高度概括。根据本段内容 “While there’s no need to plan every day for the next three years, it can’t hurt to make a note of classes you want to take or activities you’d like to try. Believe it or not, the three years go by really fast. Having a plan in place will help you make the most of your high school experience.(虽然 没有必要为未来三年的每一天做计划，但把你想参加的课程或想尝 试的活动记下来也无妨。信不信由你，三年过得真快。有一个适当 的计划将帮助你充分利用你的高中经历。)”可知，本段的主旨是建 议制定一个三年计划。A项“Create a three-year plan.(制定一个三年计 划。)”是对本段内容的高度概括，符合语境。故选 A项。 【答案】41.

A. after 11:30 p.m. B. before 11:30 p.m. C. at 10:30 p.m. D. by 10:30 p.m. B Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his experiences. He always told me, “You should have goals like climbing the mountain.” Without the mountain- climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn’t have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my perseverance (毅力). Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds’ singing. But as time passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that moment, but my father said to me, “You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can’t see it before you reach the top. Only there you can see all of the nice things, just like your life.” At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain, and the sky was as clear as crystal (水晶). 24. What did author think of the mountain-climbing with father? A. pleasant B. tiring C. painful D. hard 25. The word “quit” in the passage means “________”. A. carry on B. put out C. give up D. pick up 26. It can be inferred （推断）from the last paragraph that ________. A. the writer reached the top of the mountain B. the writer was very successful in his life C. though the writer was young, he could understand his father D. the writer used to stop half-way when he climbed the mountain 27. The best title for the passage is ________. A. How to Get to the Foot of the Mountain B. Sleeping at the Top of the Mountain C. Conversations between Father and Son D. Reaching the Top of the Mountain C Artificial intelligence(人工智能), or AI in short, is the science of giving computers and machines ability to think and work like humans. AI scientists and engineers have made a lot of cool technologies. AI is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces. As a result, facial recognition(人脸识别) is used a lot in the world. Chinese police use this technology to identify criminals(罪犯). Once they caught a criminal when he attended a concert. It also checks the ID of ride-hailing(网约车) drivers and lets people pay for things with a smile. AI is also used in self-driving cars, which are believed to be the future of driving. Most drivers may wave or nod at passers-by to let them cross the street, but self-driving cars don’t have this ability. Car makers are testing a light signal system to help them “speak” to humans. The system can show what self-driving cars will do. For example, if a driver-less car is yielding(让路), it will flash two white lights side to side. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up. Service Robots also show you how powerful AI is. Imagine this-you come back home from school and your robot housekeeper is waiting for you at the door. After dinner, he teaches you to play the piano, just like a real music teacher. Such thoughts will soon happen in the real world. In the future, more and more service robots will become good home helpers. AI is so powerful that it can help human beings and even replace us in many jobs. 28．The underlined word “identify” probably means “________” in the passage. A．tum down B．help with C．forget about D．find out 29．In the future, a self-driving car may communicate with humans by ________.

For example, Luyang district of Hefei has built more than 100 reading rooms in recent years, so people can enjoy the fun of reading at their doorsteps. In the UK, 3,718 libraries provide different kinds of services, including lending out books and offering a free, warm and safe space for people to go to. Some libraries make it easier to borrow books: for example, by delivering books to library users’ doorsteps. Libraries do more than house books. They provide people with other services and tools, such as computers, and create a sense of community. However, many libraries in the UK are at risk of closing because they can’t afford the cost of operating. Library fines (罚款) are carried out when people don’t return books on time. Many people in the UK believe that fines are needed because they help libraries improve services, and prevent people from returning books late. Without fines, people might be more relaxed and many more books could be returned late. After all, some books are so popular that there can be a waiting list for people who want to read it next. Libraries only work if people borrowing books return them on time, ready for other library users to enjoy. However, one third of Britain’s libraries are fine-free now. This means some library users who don’t return books by the date agreed are not charged (收费). Besides, people who don’t have much money really depend on libraries to help them save some money, not spend it. Many libraries have got rid of fines all together, which makes libraries more welcoming environments. So, should libraries stop fining people? See what we find in other countries. 32．What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A．Libraries are facing more challenges. B．Libraries are popular with young readers.

C．Designs for libraries in Asia and Europe. D．Facts about library fines in other countries. 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，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。 Going from middle school to the freshman year of high school is a big change. ____36____.
