She looked after the flowers together with Mr. Craven. No gardeners were allowed in.” “But what happened?” Mary asked, “There was an old tree in the garden with a branch (树枝) like a seat, Mrs. Craven often sat there, reading and talking. One day, the branch broke and she fell down. She was badly hurt and died soon. Mr. Craven locked the garden and never talked about it.” Mary seldom felt sorry for anyone, but now she understood how sad her uncle must be. The wind roared around the house, and the doors and windows banged. Mary listened, and through the noise she thought that she heard a child crying. “Can you hear someone crying?” she asked Martha. Martha seemed pretty nervous. “No,” she answered. “It’s only the wind or the servant who works in the kitchen. She’s got a toothache. Perhaps she’s crying. I’m going to check if she needs any help.” After the words. Martha left the room quickly. When Martha left her alone. Mary decided to explore the house.

People build these huts to protect African penguin (企鹅) families from the hot sun. ②African penguins spend most of their time in the cool water of the South Atlantic Ocean. But in order to breed (繁殖) and incubate (孵化) their eggs, they have to be on land. Unluckily, the birds’ black coats take in heat (吸收热量) from the burning African sun. If they return to the water to cool off, they cannot protect their eggs and young chicks (雏鸟) from predators (捕食者). ③ ▲ , the penguins would usually dig (挖) holes in layers of guano (海鸟粪). However, in the 1800s, people collected most of the guano and sold it for money. Because of this loss and other dangers such as overfishing of their prey (猎物), the number of the penguins falls from about three million to less than 50,000. ④The African Penguin Nest Project began to solve the problem by building artificial nests (人工巢箱). The nests are small round huts just large enough to fit two penguin parents and their chicks. White paint on the outside of the nests reflects (反射) sunlight, keeping the inside at a safe temperature (温度) of 35℃ or lower. ⑤The first artificial nests were placed on the beaches in 2018. “In only a few minutes, penguins were running into them,” Kevin Graham, head of the African Penguin Nest Project, said. “That tells you how much the penguins want to find a safe place to nest.” ⑥Now people have built more than 500 nests on the beaches, and at least 99% of them are being used. Local experts (专家) say the huts are helping penguin chicks survive (存活) and are an important way to save the penguins. “It’s a big part of it,” Graham said, “but there has to be more.” 58. Why do people build small white huts on beaches in South Africa? A. To make the beaches more beautiful. B. To ask more visitors to come to the beaches. C. To save African penguin families from the hot sun. D. To let more penguins live on land instead of in water. 59. Choose the best answer to fill in the blank ▲ in Paragraph 3? A.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了南非为保护非洲企鹅免受炎热阳光和捕食者威胁，通过建造人工巢箱帮助它们繁殖和孵化。 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据“On the southern and western beaches of South Africa (南非), there are small white huts (棚子). People build these huts to protect African penguin (企鹅) families from the hot sun.”可知，人们建造这些白色的小屋是为了保护非洲企鹅家族免受烈日的伤害。故选C。 【59题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Unluckily, the birds’ black coats take in heat (吸收热量) from the burning African sun. If they return to the water to cool off, they cannot protect their eggs and young chicks (雏鸟) from predators (捕食者).”可知，企鹅的黑色皮毛吸收了非洲烈日的热量，如果它们回到水里降温，它们就不能保护它们的蛋和雏鸟免受捕食者的伤害。再根据“ the penguins would usually dig (挖) holes in layers of guano (海鸟粪).”可知，企鹅通常会在海鸟粪中挖洞，由此推知这样是为了保持安全和凉爽。故选A。 【60题详解】 细节理解题。根据“White paint on the outside of the nests reflects (反射) sunlight, keeping the inside at a safe temperature (温度) of 35℃ or lower.”可知，巢外的白色涂料可以反射阳光，使巢内的温度保持在35℃或更低的安全温度，这样保持了巢内的凉爽。故选D。 【61题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引出话题：南非海滩上的白色小屋是为了保护非洲企鹅家族免受烈日的伤害；第二段和第三段介绍了非洲企鹅的生活状况；第四、五、六段介绍了非洲企鹅巢项目。综上，本文的结构为①/②③/④⑤⑥。故选C。 D More and more people in China are now showing parts of their lives to the world by videos on their phones. Some people send videos of personal events like holidays and weddings. Using live streaming（网络直播）is very popular among the people aged 18 to 35. Even the teachers give lessons by live streaming. Besides leaving reviews on the screen, they can also communicate directly with the hosts by buying virtual（虚拟的）gifts such as flowers, toys and cars for them online. What’s more, live streaming allows users to communicate with strangers and express themselves. A 19-year-old college student called Nora Li says she spends three to four hours each week chatting and singing with viewers through one app called Ingkee.“Sometimes I feel lonely and want to talk to people.”she says. “I feel nice when viewers are paying attention to me.” However，there are worries about the misuse of live streaming. Papi Jiang promised to correct her unsuitable and impolite language after she was warned by the officials. Now there are more than 80 apps and 300 websites for live streaming in China. “We support the use of live streaming. But people should know the two sides of it.”one of the officials said. 62.

More and more people like being paid attention to. 【答案】62. D 63. C 64. A 65. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述的是在中国网络直播很流行，然而随之而来也出现很多问题。我们要注意它的两面性。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Besides leaving reviews on the screen, they can also communicate directly with the hosts by buying virtual（虚拟的）gifts such as flowers, toys and cars for them online.”可知，可以通过在屏幕上留评论，或买虚拟的礼物。故选D。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Sometimes I feel lonely and want to talk to people”可知，因为她感觉孤独想和人们聊聊。故选C。 【64题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“misuse”的构词法是词根“use”使用，加前缀mis“不正确”构成，故推知意思是“滥用”。故选A。 【65题详解】 推理判断题。根据“We support the use of live streaming. But people should know the two sides of it”可推知，我们要正确使用网络直播。故选B。 第二卷 (非选择题, 共60分) 五、词汇运用（共l0小题，每小题l分，计l0分） 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) 66.

The cold wind brought pink to her face. And she finished all of her food each evening. She was much healthier. After dinner, she liked sitting near the fire and talking to Martha. “Why does Mr. Craven hate the locked garden?” Mary asked once. “It was Mrs. Craven’s garden and she loved it. She looked after the flowers together with Mr. Craven. No gardeners were allowed in.” “But what happened?” Mary asked, “There was an old tree in the garden with a branch (树枝) like a seat, Mrs. Craven often sat there, reading and talking. One day, the branch broke and she fell down. She was badly hurt and died soon. Mr. Craven locked the garden and never talked about it.” Mary seldom felt sorry for anyone, but now she understood how sad her uncle must be. The wind roared around the house, and the doors and windows banged. Mary listened, and through the noise she thought that she heard a child crying. “Can you hear someone crying?” she asked Martha. Martha seemed pretty nervous. “No,” she answered. “It’s only the wind or the servant who works in the kitchen. She’s got a toothache. Perhaps she’s crying. I’m going to check if she needs any help.” After the words. Martha left the room quickly. When Martha left her alone. Mary decided to explore the house. She went quietly along corridors and up and down stairs. In the silence of the house she heard again the sound of a child crying. She stopped to listen at a door, but then another door opened and Mrs. Medlock came out, “What are you doing here?” she said, and she took Mary by the arm and pulled her away. “Get back to your room at once.” —Adapted from The Secret Garden 54.

C ①On the southern and western beaches of South Africa (南非), there are small white huts (棚子). People build these huts to protect African penguin (企鹅) families from the hot sun. ②African penguins spend most of their time in the cool water of the South Atlantic Ocean. But in order to breed (繁殖) and incubate (孵化) their eggs, they have to be on land. Unluckily, the birds’ black coats take in heat (吸收热量) from the burning African sun. If they return to the water to cool off, they cannot protect their eggs and young chicks (雏鸟) from predators (捕食者). ③ ▲ , the penguins would usually dig (挖) holes in layers of guano (海鸟粪). However, in the 1800s, people collected most of the guano and sold it for money. Because of this loss and other dangers such as overfishing of their prey (猎物), the number of the penguins falls from about three million to less than 50,000. ④The African Penguin Nest Project began to solve the problem by building artificial nests (人工巢箱). The nests are small round huts just large enough to fit two penguin parents and their chicks. White paint on the outside of the nests reflects (反射) sunlight, keeping the inside at a safe temperature (温度) of 35℃ or lower. ⑤The first artificial nests were placed on the beaches in 2018. “In only a few minutes, penguins were running into them,” Kevin Graham, head of the African Penguin Nest Project, said. “That tells you how much the penguins want to find a safe place to nest.” ⑥Now people have built more than 500 nests on the beaches, and at least 99% of them are being used. Local experts (专家) say the huts are helping penguin chicks survive (存活) and are an important way to save the penguins. “It’s a big part of it,” Graham said, “but there has to be more.” 58. Why do people build small white huts on beaches in South Africa? A. To make the beaches more beautiful. B. To ask more visitors to come to the beaches. C. To save African penguin families from the hot sun. D. To let more penguins live on land instead of in water. 59. Choose the best answer to fill in the blank ▲ in Paragraph 3? A. To stay safe and cool B. To save food for winter C. To find a place for sleeping D. To protect their black coats 60. What is the important meaning of the white paint on the outside of the nests? A. It makes predators unable to see the nests. B. It helps the penguins to breed more often, C. It makes penguins run into the nests willingly. D. It helps to keep the inside of the nests cool. 61. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage?

Today, some people are still interested in it, and Zhang Li is one of them. She became interested in Wheat Straw Painting when she was 16 years old. In 2015, she set up her own workroom. Now, Zhang Li realizes that Wheat Straw Painting is what she wants to do for the rest of her life. She collects lots of wheat straw in the countryside. She dries the straw in the sun and then cuts it by hand. Colorful straws, like red, orange and brown can be found in her artworks. “They are all natural.” Zhang Li said. Different colors make her paintings beautiful. In order to develop Wheat Straw Painting, she came up with the idea of mixing it with other traditional Chinese art. So she spent two years learning Suzhou embroidery (苏绣) from some famous artists. One of her greatest works is a bird among flowers. It took her the whole year to finish it. The bird’s smooth-shiny and colorful feathers are made of wheat straw, while the flowers are made of silk. “In my works, you will find paintings and embroideries mix well.” said Zhang Li. Through great effort, Zhang Li successfully brought Wheat Straw Painting to people’s attention. She said, “What I have done is just the very beginning. There is still a long way to go.” 76.
