Do you always have enough time to relax yourself? Are the adults around you all busy with something? In modern life, everyone is as busy as a bee, but why is that? Let’s do a simple thought experiment. Imagine yourself as a busy office worker. Now, picture having a magical set of technologies. It could make your job easier. What would you do with your extra time? Well, you would probably work the same amount of time as before, or even more. You have doubts about this, don’t you? But it often happened in people’s life—not in factories or offices, but in homes. With the development of modern technology, many new appliances were invented to save people time and effort. Dishwashers and electric irons (熨斗) made their way into more and more homes. Each of them could have saved hours of work, but none of them did. Full-time housewives spent more hours doing housework after high-tech was brought into their homes. This may seem surprising, but the reasons are simple. Better technology leads to higher expectations, and higher expectations create more work. Take laundry for example. Before modern technology, most people washed their clothes only twice a year. Washing machines changed that. People began washing their clothes more often. And because it was easier to do the laundry, people bought more shirts and pants. As a result, housewives found themselves washing, drying and folding a lot more clothes. Besides, technology has indeed reduced the time it takes to cook a meal or wash a shirt. But it has also freed up time for other household duties, especially childcare. What does all this tell us about modern life? Modern technology brings us a lot of comfort and convenience, but it also makes us even busier. So the problem is… 36. The writer starts the passage by ________. A. giving an example B. listing some numbers C. asking questions D. making comparisons 37. What does “that” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. Better technology. B. Higher expectations. C. The habit of washing clothes. D. Buying more clothes. 38. The underlined word “reduced” in paragraph 6 means ________. A. making something more B. making something less C. making something larger D. making something stronger 39. What BIG question do paragraph 5&6 answer? A. How does technology better our life? B. What kind of expectations do we have? C. How often do people do laundry? D. Why do we have more work? 40. What would the writer write about after the last paragraph? A. What kind of special roles do technology play? B. What can we do to live our life to the fullest? C. Who can make the lives of housewives easier? D. How can we work less with more tech? 【答案】36. C 37. C 38. B 39. D 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲的是现代科技给我们生活带来了很多舒适和便利，但也让我们更加忙碌。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Do you always have enough time to relax yourself? Are the adults around you all busy with something? In modern life, everyone is as busy as a bee, but why is that?”可知，作者以提出问题来开始这篇文章。故选C。 【37题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Before modern technology, most people washed their clothes only twice a year. Washing machines changed that.”可知，在现代技术出现之前，大多数人一年只洗两次衣服，洗衣机改变了这一点；可推测出“that”指代的是“the habit of washing clothes”。故选C。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段中“Besides, technology has indeed reduced the time it takes to cook a meal or wash a shirt. But it has also freed up time for other household duties, especially childcare.”可知，技术确实减少了做饭或洗衬衫所需的时间，但这也为其他家务腾出了时间，尤其是照顾孩子；可推测出“reduced”意为“减少”，与“making something less”意思相近。故选B。 【39题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段中“Better technology leads to higher expectations, and higher expectations create more work.”以及通读第五段和第六段可知，更好的技术会带来更高的期望，更高的期望会创造更多的工作；第五段和第六段主要讲的是“为什么我们有更多的工作”。故选D。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Modern technology brings us a lot of comfort and convenience, but it also makes us even busier.”以及“So the problem is…”可知，现代技术给我们带来了很多舒适和便利，但也让我们更加忙碌；可推断出，在最后一段之后，作者会写我们如何用更多的技术做更少的工作。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题 共 40 分) 五、词与短语填空 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，然后用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使短文在结构、语意和逻辑上正确。（提示：方框中有两个单词或短语是多余的。） result / be ready to / broke / expect / take the place of / bored / excited A farmer, Mr Hocking, grew the world’s heaviest blueberry (蓝莓).

The idea was that anyone at school who ___48___ (feel) lonely could sit on the “buddy bench”. That let other kids ___49___ (true) know someone needed a friend. “It’s really helpful to have other people notice you,” Sammie says. The idea quickly became a hit because the bench brought kids together. “It means a lot to me,” she says, “___50___ this is making a difference in people’s lives.” Sammie thought it would be cool ___51___ (have) a buddy bench in her school, so she told the idea to her headmaster, her teachers, and her parents. To get a “YES” for the project was just the ___52___ (one) step. There are still a lot of ___53___ (discussion), like money. Sammie says it helped ___54___ (she) change a lot. “I used to be really, really shy,” she says. “I’m much ___55___ (outgoing) now.” What Sammie’s work shows is that small acts of kindness are of little use, but they can be powerful. 【答案】46. successful 47. in 48. felt 49. truly 50. because 51. to have 52. first 53. discussions 54. her 55. more outgoing 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了萨米通过发起“伙伴长椅计划”帮助感到孤独的孩子交朋友，同时自己也从中学会了面对挑战和接受局限性。 【46题详解】 句意：她正在做的是让“伙伴长椅”成为一个成功的项目。根据“a…program”可知，此处应用形容词作定语来修饰名词program，success“成功”，名词，其形容词为successful，意为“成功的”。故填successful。 【47题详解】 句意：她在三年级时就开始这个项目了。根据“when she was…the third grade”可知，此处指“她在三年级时”，应用介词in“在……期间”。故填in。 【48题详解】 句意：这个想法是，学校里任何感到孤独的人都可以坐在“伙伴长椅”上。根据“The idea was that anyone at school who…lonely”可知，who引导定语从句，从句时态为一般过去时，谓语动词应用动词的过去式，feel的过去式为felt。故填felt。 【49题详解】 句意：那让其他孩子真正知道有人需要朋友。根据“That let other kids…know”可知，此处应用副词来修饰动词know，true“真正的”，形容词，其副词为truly，意为“真正地”。故填truly。 【50题详解】 句意：“这对我来说意义重大，”她说，“因为这正在改变人们的生活。”根据“It means a lot to me”以及“this is making a difference in people’s lives”可知，后半句是前半句的原因，此处应用because引导原因状语从句。故填because。 【51题详解】 句意：萨米认为在学校里有一个伙伴长椅会很酷，所以她把这个想法告诉了校长、老师和父母。根据“it would be cool…a buddy bench in her school”可知，此处指在学校里有一个伙伴长椅会很酷，it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式，空处应用to have。故填to have。 【52题详解】 句意：获得项目的“是”只是第一步。根据“the…step”可知，此处应用序数词，应用first“第一”，表顺序。故填first。 【53题详解】 句意：还有很多讨论，比如钱。discussion“讨论”，可数名词。根据“There are still a lot of…”可知，空前为a lot of“许多”，其后接可数名词复数形式或不可数名词，空处应用复数名词discussions。故填discussions。 【54题详解】 句意：萨米说这帮助她改变了很多。根据“it helped…change a lot”可知，空前为动词helped，空处应用人称代词的宾格作宾语，she的宾格是her。故填her。 【55题详解】 句意：“我曾经非常非常害羞，”她说。“我现在更外向了。”根据“I used to be really, really shy”以及“I’m much…now.”可知，萨米过去很害羞，现在她更外向了；空前为much，常用来修饰比较级，表示程度的加深，空处应用形容词的比较级，outgoing的比较级是more outgoing。故填more outgoing。 七、书面表达 (共1大题，满分20分) 56. 遇到好朋友是缘分，古有彼此信任的管鲍之交也有彼此欣赏的知音之交，你和你的朋友是什么样的友谊呢？请用英文从友谊内涵理解，相貌性格异同，难忘经历分享等方面向王林介绍你的好朋友Mike，讲讲你们之间的故事。 What do you think of friendship?

These delicious dishes made Erik want to go back to China for another trip. Surprised about China Kamyabi visited China in May. At first, he planned to visit only Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

His mother, however, offered him different advice: “You’ve known English since you were young. Look, everything, including what we buy, is made in China, so choosing the Chinese language should be helpful for you. “ ★ , Mohamed started learning Chinese. Mohamed graduated in Egypt with a degreed in Chinese in 2019, and then furthered his study in broadcasting and anchoring (播音主持) in China. When he first began studying it in Chinese, he often found himself confused — what is the dantian? How does one sink qi to the dantian? During that time, Mohamed practiced tongue twisters, xiangsheng and even guankou. After a while, his classmates were surprised to find that he had become the best Chinese speaker in the class. After learning about how shared bikes are used in China, Mohamed shared his thoughts on social media about how Egypt could do the same. He tagged the Egyptian Minister of Transport. Two days later, the official account reposted (转发) and said, “This is a great idea. We look forward to making it happen.” A year later, the capital of Egypt started the “Cairo Bike” sharing project as a way of solving traffic problems. “We learn a lot from China,” Mohamed says, “I think China can really set a very good example for the whole world.” During his studies in China, Mohamed says he could feel the friendliness of the Chinese people towards Egypt and their interest in learning about foreign cultures. With the help of his introducing, more and more Chinese began to learn about Egypt. Mohamed says he also keeps working to build a bridge that allows his Egyptian friends to better understand China: “If I can be this bridge, it would be a great honor.” 31.

Performing Tongue Twisters in Egypt B. Building Bridges between China and Egypt C. Learning Chinese as a Fun Hobby D. Introducing Ancient Egypt to China C More Tech, Less Work? Do you always have enough time to relax yourself? Are the adults around you all busy with something? In modern life, everyone is as busy as a bee, but why is that? Let’s do a simple thought experiment. Imagine yourself as a busy office worker. Now, picture having a magical set of technologies. It could make your job easier. What would you do with your extra time? Well, you would probably work the same amount of time as before, or even more. You have doubts about this, don’t you? But it often happened in people’s life—not in factories or offices, but in homes. With the development of modern technology, many new appliances were invented to save people time and effort. Dishwashers and electric irons (熨斗) made their way into more and more homes. Each of them could have saved hours of work, but none of them did. Full-time housewives spent more hours doing housework after high-tech was brought into their homes. This may seem surprising, but the reasons are simple. Better technology leads to higher expectations, and higher expectations create more work. Take laundry for example. Before modern technology, most people washed their clothes only twice a year. Washing machines changed that. People began washing their clothes more often. And because it was easier to do the laundry, people bought more shirts and pants. As a result, housewives found themselves washing, drying and folding a lot more clothes. Besides, technology has indeed reduced the time it takes to cook a meal or wash a shirt. But it has also freed up time for other household duties, especially childcare. What does all this tell us about modern life? Modern technology brings us a lot of comfort and convenience, but it also makes us even busier. So the problem is… 36. The writer starts the passage by ________. A. giving an example B. listing some numbers C. asking questions D. making comparisons 37. What does “that” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. Better technology. B. Higher expectations. C. The habit of washing clothes. D. Buying more clothes. 38. The underlined word “reduced” in paragraph 6 means ________. A. making something more B. making something less C. making something larger D. making something stronger 39. What BIG question do paragraph 5&6 answer? A How does technology better our life? B. What kind of expectations do we have? C. How often do people do laundry? D. Why do we have more work? 40. What would the writer write about after the last paragraph? A. What kind of special roles do technology play? B. What can we do to live our life to the fullest? C. Who can make the lives of housewives easier? D. How can we work less with more tech? 第Ⅱ卷 (非选择题 共 40 分) 五、词与短语填空 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，然后用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使短文在结构、语意和逻辑上正确。（提示：方框中有两个单词或短语是多余的。） result / be ready to / broke / expect / take the place of / bored / excited A farmer, Mr Hocking, grew the world’s heaviest blueberry (蓝莓).
