Ladies and gentlemen,
Today I am honored to give a speech titled Changes Begin With You. As we all know, many animals are in danger because of human activities, such as environmental pollution, illegal hunting and habitat destruction.
As teenagers, we should take actions right now. We can make people around us aware of the importance of environmental protection. In addition, when the buying stops, the killings can stop, too. We need to persuade our parents not to buy any animals products, such as fur and ivory products.
Changes begin with you! Only when we live in harmony with animals can we have a bright future.
Thank you for listening.

【参考范文】
Night fell, it became colder and colder. The cold moonlight cast a pale glow over the sea. The icy sea spray crept down his neck and a chilly wind swept his body. Steven Lippoth couldn’t help shivering. Being an experienced fisherman, he knew he should try to use anything that he could to keep himself warm. He wrapped himself with the torn canvas, crouching in the corner to avoid the wind. Some terrible thoughts once flashed through his mind, but looking at the fish he had harvested, he felt a sense of comfort. “It is only one night, and the coast guard will find me sooner or later.” Steven Lippoth murmured and fell asleep.
The next morning, the sound of a coastguard ship woke him up. Steven Lippoth sprang to his feet and waved his hands wildly at the ship, calling out with all his strength with his voice trembling. A few minutes later, the guard arrived and pulled him to the board with great care. It was at this moment that Steven Lippoth burst into tears. He repeatedly expressed his deepest gratitude to the coast guard. The guards were shocked to find Steven safe and sound considering how terrible the storm was yesterday. Only Steven Lippoth knew it was his sensible action and positive attitude that saved him.

W: A better way to save money might be to use a greener energy source.
M: What do you mean?
W: I mean, instead of using gas or coal, why don’t we try solar power? Although it will be costly to get the solar equipment set up, it will be worth it in the long run. And it’s environmentally friendly.
M: Good idea, but it’s quite dark during winter, so the equipment won’t transform much sunlight into energy.
W: That’s a good point. How about using the wind?
M: That’s great. We’ll end up having more energy with the winter storms here.

B.The willingness to work hard.
C.The way that brains process information.
18.Which is the most common learning disability?

20.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.How to cure learning disabilities.
B.What are learning disabilities.
C.Why learning disabilities are important.
【答案】17.C 18.B 19.A 20.B
【原文】M: Experts say learning disabilities are not with intelligence or the willingness to work hard. The problem, they say, is that some people’s brains process information differently. By definition, people with learning disabilities are average or above average in their intelligence.
But their disorders may affect their ability to gain knowledge and, as a result, limit their success in school or jobs. Different people have different kinds of learning disabilities. One person may have difficulty with language development, another may have problems with reading or writing. Still another may have trouble working with numbers.
People can have more than one disorder, but reading is the most common area of difficulty. Learning disabilities affect the brain’s ability to store, process and communicate information. The national center for learning disabilities estimates that 15 million Americans, or five percent, are affected. The group says 3 million students in the United States have received some kind of special help in school because of their learning disabilities.
第二部分 阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
Do you know someone who has a hard time opening bottles or jars at home? Eighth-grade students in Mark Bolt’s engineering class were tasked with making changes to a product to make it easier for people with challenges to use.
Rather than requiring step-by-step directions for creating their projects, Mr. Bolt preferred to leave students’ creative paths open. Let’s see some of the students’ products.
A Device That Easily Opens Bottles
To find a solution for her grandmother who had difficulty in opening bottles, Alana looked at existing bottle openers and then she created her own.
She used a piece of wood shaped like a cellphone. Next, she made three holes of different sizes in the wood so that they could match common bottle cap sizes. Each hole also had a layer of dried, sticky hot glue, which provided a firm grip for the bottle caps. With a simple twist of the device, her grandmother could open bottles without help.
A Coffee Cup With A Supportive “Thumb”
Due to arthritis, a disease that causes pain in or around the joints, Robert’s grandfather had trouble holding a coffee cup. Robert simplified a robotic “third thumb” device created by a London designer. He used rubber bands and a 3D-printed plastic form to make the extra “thumb” which can firmly support the bottom of a cup.
A Reading Tool
Michael noticed how dyslexia——a common reading disorder, made it difficult for a friend to follow along on pages full of text. It is a language-processing condition. The brain tends to confuse the order of numbers, letters and other images.
So, Michael created a small adjustable window-blind-style device. “My friend could isolate small sections of text while reading,” he said.
21.Alana’s grandmother could open bottles easily by______.
A.sticking bottle caps to the device
B.connecting the device to a cellphone
C.twisting the device that has holes in it
D.cutting holes of different sizes in wood
22.What did Robert do to help his grandfather?
A.He reformed a process to form a metal “thumb”.
B.He created a simpler “thumb” device in the cup.
C.He added plastic materials to the “thumb” device.
D.He used bands and a 3D-printed form to make a “thumb”.
23.Which of the following words can best describe the students in the passage?
A.Independent and patient. B.Creative and considerate.
C.Ambitious and hardworking. D.Open-minded and generous.
【答案】21.C 22.D 23.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了学生们的发明。
21.细节理解题。根据第四段中“She used a piece of wood shaped like a cellphone. Next, she made three holes of different sizes in the wood so that they could match common bottle cap sizes. Each hole also had a layer of dried, sticky hot glue, which provided a firm grip for the bottle caps. With a simple twist of the device, her grandmother could open bottles without help.(他用了一块手机形状的木头。接下来,她在木头上打了三个不同大小的洞,这样它们就可以匹配普通瓶盖的大小。每个洞里都有一层干燥的、粘稠的热胶,可以牢牢地抓住瓶盖。只要简单地扭动一下这个装置,她的祖母就能在没有帮助的情况下打开瓶子。)”可知,阿拉娜的祖母可以通过扭转有洞的装置轻松打开瓶子。故选C。
22.细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“Robert simplified a robotic “third thumb” device created by a London designer. He used rubber bands and a 3D-printed plastic form to make the extra “thumb” which can firmly support the bottom of a cup.(罗伯特简化了一个由伦敦设计师设计的机器人“第三根拇指”装置。他用橡皮筋和3d打印的塑料模型制作了一个额外的“拇指”,可以牢固地支撑杯子的底部。)”可知,Robert为了帮助他的祖父,他用手带和3d打印的表格制作了一个“拇指”。故选D。
23.推理判断题。根据第二段“To find a solution for her grandmother who had difficulty in opening bottles, Alana looked at existing bottle openers and then she created her own.(为了解决祖母开瓶困难的问题,Alana查看了现有的开瓶器,然后创造了自己的开瓶器。)”以及“Due to arthritis, a disease that causes pain in or around the joints, Robert’s grandfather had trouble holding a coffee cup. Robert simplified a robotic “third thumb” device created by a London designer. He used rubber bands and a 3D-printed plastic form to make the extra “thumb” which can firmly support the bottom of a cup.(由于关节炎(一种会导致关节或关节周围疼痛的疾病),罗伯特的祖父连拿咖啡杯都有困难。罗伯特简化了一个由伦敦设计师设计的机器人“第三根拇指”装置。他用橡皮筋和3d打印的塑料模型制作了一个额外的“拇指”,可以牢固地支撑杯子的底部。)”可知,“有创造力,体贴”最能描述文章中的学生。故选B。
B
One of the improv (即兴表演) classes I attended regularly was taught by Jim Cranna every Saturday afternoon. Sometimes, as many as twenty-five to sixty-plus folks showed up. Jim made sure to fit everyone in so they could improve their skills. The class lasted for three hours. The usual cast of comic actors played improv comedy games. And we would go to the nearest mini market located in the building and get a snack or coffee during breaks.
One day, three of us were standing outside the building, when Robin William — an internationally famous actor and comic walked by, enjoying the fresh bay air. Completely frozen, my fellow comics couldn’t summon up the courage to just say “hi” to Robin, who was with a friend. I froze for a moment, but then I composed myself.
I told them, “Hey, if you guys can’t handle it, then I will ask him to come and join us for the second half of class.” I could hear them mumble under their breath, “Yeah, sure, right. You’re going to ask Robin Williams to come to our comedy class. Good luck with that one!”
So I went up to Robin and his friend and asked him to join us. “We’re having an improve comedy class. We’re on break now, but we would be most humbled and honored if you would join us for the second half of the class.” Robin looked directly in my eyes and said with little hesitation, “Okay.” It was like a grown-up child being asked to come and play. With that, he and his friend followed me up to the class.
When he saw Robin, Jim said, “Oh my goodness, look who Micheline is bringing to class.” Jim’s eyes were all in astonishment and delight. “Why, it’s Robin Williams!” “Robin and his friend stayed the rest of the class and at the end of the class, Robin and Jim performed a skit (滑稽短剧). We actually watched him shape-shift as he prepared physically and mentally for his made-up character. He gave it his all. It was truly magical.”
What a delight for all of us that Saturday afternoon! All I know is that if I hadn’t gathered up the courage to ask Robin to join us, none of us would have had that experience.
24.What does the underlined word “compose” mean in paragraph 2?
A.Look down. B.Calm down. C.Make up. D.Pick up.
25.What did the author want to show by telling the experience?
A.It’s never too late to mend. B.He who laughs last laughs best.
C.A brave attempt is half success. D.Actions speak louder than words.
26.What can be inferred from the text?
A.It was the author’s patience that moved Robin Williams.
B.Jim Cranna was waiting for Robin Williams to come to the class.
C.Robin Williams gave a lecture on playing improv comedy games.
D.Micheline’s friends didn’t have the bravery to invite Robin Williams.
27.What kind of person was Robin Williams most likely to be?
A.Well-known but approachable. B.Popular but humble.
C.Respected but casual. D.Strict but generous.
【答案】24.B 25.C 26.D 27.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者在一次即兴表演课的休息期间,偶遇了著名的喜剧演员,并鼓起勇气邀请他来为作者他们上喜剧课,以此告诉大家,敢于尝试就有可能成功。
24.词句猜测题。根据划线单词上一句“I froze for a moment(我愣了一会儿)”以及下一句“I told them, “Hey, if you guys can’t handle it, then I will ask him to come and join us for the second half of class.” (我告诉他们,“嘿,如果你们搞不定,那我就叫他来和我们一起上下半节课。”)” 可知,作者一开始也不太敢上前邀请罗宾·威廉斯,但是后来还是开口了,说明作者是稳定了一下情绪。由此推知,划线词compose与B项:calm down(冷静下来)的意思接近。故选B项。
25.主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“I told them, “Hey, if you guys can’t handle it, then I will ask him to come and join us for the second half of class.” I could hear them mumble under their breath, “Yeah, sure, right. You’re going to ask Robin Williams to come to our comedy class. Good luck with that one!”(我对他们说:“嘿,如果你们搞不定的话,那我就请他来和我们一起上下半节课。”我能听到他们低声嘟囔着:“是啊,当然,没错。你要邀请罗宾·威廉姆斯来上我们的喜剧课。祝你好运!)”以及后文可知,作者和同学们偶遇著名喜剧演员却都不敢上前打招呼,最后作者鼓起勇气开口打招呼,并邀请这名喜剧演员为他们上戏剧课。结果该喜剧演员不仅毫不犹豫地同意了作者的请求,还给他们展示了精彩的表演。结合最后一段“What a delight for all of us that Saturday afternoon! All I know is that if I hadn’t gathered up the courage to ask Robin to join us, none of us would have had that experience.(那个星期六下午我们大家都很高兴!我只知道,如果我没有鼓起勇气邀请罗宾加入我们,我们都不会有这样的经历)”推知,文章想告诉我们的是敢于迈出尝试的一步,就有可能成功,即勇敢的尝试是成功的一半,C. A brave attempt is half success(勇敢的尝试是成功的一半)符合题意。故选C项。
26.推理判断题。根据第二段“Completely frozen, my fellow comics couldn’t summon up the courage to just say “hi” to Robin, who was with a friend.(我的喜剧演员同伴们完全愣住了,没能鼓起勇气向罗宾打招呼,罗宾身边还有一个朋友)”和第三段的“I told them, “Hey, if you guys can’t handle it, then I will ask him to come and join us for the second half of class.” (我告诉他们,“嘿,如果你们搞不定,那我就叫他来和我们一起上下半节课。”)”可知,作者的同伴见到著名喜剧演员罗宾·威廉斯时全都愣住了,甚至不敢上前和他打招呼,更不敢鼓起勇气邀请罗宾。故选D项。
27.推理判断题。文章第二段“One day, three of us were standing outside the building, when Robin William — an internationally famous actor and comic walked by, enjoying the fresh bay air.(有一天,我们三个人站在大楼外面,国际著名演员兼喜剧演员罗宾·威廉斯走过,享受着海湾的新鲜空气)”提到,罗宾·威廉斯很出名;再根据第四段“Robin looked directly in my eyes and said with little hesitation, “Okay.”(罗宾直视着我的眼睛,毫不犹豫地说:“好的”) ”可知,作者邀请罗宾·威廉斯为他们上课的时候,他毫不犹豫地答应了,由此可知,罗宾·威廉斯是个平易近人的人。故选A项。
C
Research has showed physical activities are very important for students. So many schools are now encouraging students to take part in any form of healthy exercise.
Physical education is an important part of healthy living for people of all age groups, especially for the students. This is because school life is full of stress.
Besides that, in today’s world, many school children eat unhealthy foods. These may include soft drinks, pizzas and burgers. Eating these foods can make school children gain weight.
Physical education at school helps prevent school children from putting on weight. Physical exercise and activities will help them burn off more calories (卡路里). If these calories are not burned off, they will be stored as fat.
At the same time, such activities play an important role in the growth and development of the bones (骨骼). Exercise such as jumping is especially important for school children.
A physically active student will also have a healthy heart. Research shows that kids who perform aerobic (有氧的) exercise, two to three times a week for at least twenty minutes, have a healthier heart compared with those who don’t take part in physical exercise. Some kinds of the healthy aerobic exercise are playing basketball, playing soccer and so on.
28.What are many schools encouraging their students to do?
A.Study hard and get good grades.
B.Join in different kinds of sports games.
C.Take part in any form of healthy exercise.
D.Take part in different kinds of after-school activities.
29.What does the underlined word “gain” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Prevent B.Discuss C.Lose D.Increase
30.What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage?
A.It’s not easy for students to receive physical education.
B.Physical activities are good for students in many ways.
C.Those who don’t take part in physical exercise can’t keep fit.
D.Students should have more time to receive knowledge and education.
31.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.Healthy living habits
B.Students’ school life
C.Exercise more to keep healthy
D.Different kinds of aerobic exercise
【答案】28.C 29.D 30.B 31.C
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了体育活动对学生的重要性,如减轻压力、控制体重、促进骨骼发育和维持心脏健康等。
28.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Research has showed physical activities are very important for students. So many schools are now encouraging students to take part in any form of healthy exercise.(研究表明体育活动对学生来说非常重要。所以现在许多学校都鼓励学生参加任何形式的健康运动)”可知,现在许多学校都鼓励学生参加任何形式的健康运动。故选C。
29.词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Besides that, in today’s world, many school children eat unhealthy foods. These may include soft drinks, pizzas and burgers.(除此之外,在当今世界,许多学生吃不健康的食物。这些食物可能包括软饮料、披萨和汉堡)”以及下一段“Physical education at school helps prevent school children from putting on weight. Physical exercise and activities will help them burn off more calories (卡路里).(学校的体育教育有助于防止学生发胖。体育锻炼和活动可以帮助他们消耗更多的卡路里)”可推测,这些不健康的食品会让孩子的体重增加。由此可知,划线单词的意思和“增加”相似。选项A“Prevent (防止)”;选项B“Discuss (讨论)”;选项C“Lose (失去)”;选项D“Increase (增加)”。故选D。
30.主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Physical education is an important part of healthy living for people of all age groups, especially for the students.(体育教育是各年龄段人群,尤其是学生健康生活的重要组成部分)”、第四段“Physical education at school helps prevent school children from putting on weight.(学校的体育教育有助于防止学生发胖)”、第五段“At the same time, such activities play an important role in the growth and development of the bones (骨骼). Exercise such as jumping is especially important for school children.(同时,这些活动在骨骼的生长和发育中起着重要作用。像跳跃这样的运动对学龄儿童尤其重要)”以及第六段“A physically active student will also have a healthy heart.(积极锻炼身体的学生也会有健康的心脏)”可知,文章主要告诉我们体育活动在很多方面对学生都有好处。故选B。
31.主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Research has showed physical activities are very important for students. So many schools are now encouraging students to take part in any form of healthy exercise.(研究表明体育活动对学生来说非常重要。所以现在许多学校都鼓励学生参加任何形式的健康运动)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要讨论了体育运动对学生有很大的好处,如减轻压力、控制体重、促进骨骼发育和维持心脏健康等。所以“Exercise more to keep healthy(多运动以保持健康)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选C。
D
Imagine if there were a robotic fish that filtered microplastic out of the water as it swam. Well, now there is one, and it’s the physical version of the winning concept in the first-ever Natural Robotics Contest.
Announced this May, the University of Surrey’s Natural Robots Contest invited members of the public to give their concepts for animal—or plant-inspired robots capable of performing activities that would help the world.
Plans called for experts from various British and European research centers to select what they thought was the best concept, which would then be made into a real robot. Engineers would proceed to further develop the technology.
The winning concept turned out to be the plastic-collecting Robo-fish, designed by chemistry student Eleanor Mackintosh—who is a University of Surrey student. Mackintosh said, “Fish’s gills are an incredible mechanism in nature that are specialized to filter oxygen into the bloodstream—so I adapted my design from that, with the purpose of dealing with the plastic pollution in the water.”
The robot swims by moving its tail, holding its mouth wide open to-collect water and microplastics in its belly as it does so. Once that cavity is full, the robot closes its mouth, opens its gills, and pushes the water out through. A fine net attached to the gill flaps allows the water to pass through, but captures the microplastic.
In its current physical form, the 50-cm-long Robo-fish collects microplastic as small as 2 millimeters. It also uses sensors to monitor underwater environment, plus it tracks its movements within the water.
Future robots could capture much smaller particles. Other possible improvements include a faster body shape, a more powerful tail, and the ability to swim autonomously.
32.How do the participants attend the Natural Robotics Contest?
A.By handing in real robots. B.By sending the concepts of robots.
C.By selecting the best robot concepts. D.By developing the technology of robots.
33.What inspired Mackintosh to design the robot?
A.The enthusiasm for robots. B.The function of fish’s gills.
C.The body shape of the fish. D.The plastic pollution in the water.
34.What does the author intend to show in paragraph 5?
A.How the robotic fish works in water. B.How the robotic fish is further improved.
C.Why Mackintosh’s robot won the contest. D.What materials the robotic fish is made of.
35.What is the best title of the text?
A.The First Bio-Inspired Robotics Contest B.The One-Size-Fits-All Solution to Plastics
C.An Autonomously Operative Robotic Fish D.A Student-Designed Plastic-Collecting Fish
【答案】32.B 33.B 34.A 35.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要叙述萨里大学自然机器人竞赛中,一名学生设计的塑料收集机器鱼获奖。具体介绍了其运作过程、现状即未来发展。
32.细节理解题。根据第二段“Announced this May, the University of Surrey’s Natural Robots Contest invited members of the public to give their concepts for animal—or plant-inspired robots capable of performing activities that would help the world.(今年5月,萨里大学举办了自然机器人大赛,邀请公众提出他们的概念,设计以动物或植物为灵感的机器人,这些机器人能够从事帮助世界的活动)”可知,参与者提交机器人创意参加竞赛。故选B。
33.细节理解题。根据第四段“Mackintosh said, “Fish’s gills are an incredible mechanism in nature that are specialized to filter oxygen into the bloodstream—so I adapted my design from that, with the purpose of dealing with the plastic pollution in the water.”(Mackintosh说:“鱼的鳃是一种令人难以置信的自然机制,专门用于将氧气过滤到血液中,所以我以此为基础进行了设计,目的是处理水中的塑料污染。”)”可知,Mackintosh受到鱼鳃功能的启示而创造了塑料收集机器鱼。故选B。
34.推理判断题。根据第五段“The robot swims by moving its tail, holding its mouth wide open to-collect water and microplastics in its belly as it does so. Once that cavity is full, the robot closes its mouth, opens its gills, and pushes the water out through. A fine net attached to the gill flaps allows the water to pass through, but captures the microplastic.(机器人通过移动尾巴来游泳,同时张开嘴巴收集水和腹部的微塑料。一旦这个洞被填满,机器人就会闭上嘴巴,张开鳃,把水挤出去。附着在鳃瓣上的细网允许水通过,但会捕获微塑料)”可知,该段主要介绍机器鱼在水中的工作原理。故选A。
35.主旨大意题。根据第二段“Announced this May, the University of Surrey’s Natural Robots Contest invited members of the public to give their concepts for animal—or plant-inspired robots capable of performing activities that would help the world.(今年5月,萨里大学举办了自然机器人大赛,邀请公众提出他们的概念,设计以动物或植物为灵感的机器人,这些机器人能够从事帮助世界的活动)”以及第四段“The winning concept turned out to be the plastic-collecting Robo-fish, designed by chemistry student Eleanor Mackintosh—who is a University of Surrey student.(最终胜出的概念是由萨里大学化学系学生埃莉诺·麦金托什设计的塑料收集机器鱼)”结合文章主要叙述萨里大学自然机器人竞赛中,一名学生设计的塑料收集机器鱼获奖。具体介绍了其运作过程、现状即未来发展。故D选项“学生设计的塑料收集鱼”最符合文章标题。故选D。

Four Tips for Using Less Plastic(塑料)
As we all know, the world has a plastic problem — and it is increasing. Scientists are working to find along-term solution by making plastic more biodegradable(生物可降解的). 36
Quit using plastic bags. 37 People use a trillion plastic bags worldwide every year About 10 percent a reused in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day. In contrast, the average Danish uses four single-use bags per year. Today, other countries (such as Germany and New Zealand) either make customers pay for plastic bags or have stopped using them completely.
38 Today, around 8 3 billion plastic straws(吸管) pollute the world’s beaches. So when you order a drink, say no to the straw, or bring your own reusable one. In 2018, Seattle became the first major U. S. city to ban plastic straws, and many other cities are set to follow its example.
Don’t use plastic bottles. Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any type of drink you like. Some cities, like Bundanoon in Australia and San Francisco in the U. S., have completely or partially(部分地) started quitting bottled water 39 .
Avoid plastic packaging. Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. 40 They also want to tax plastic take out containers.
A.Don’t use plastic straws.
B.Don’t pollute the beaches.
C.Instead, take your own reusable shopping bag to the store.
D.Therefore, pollution has been largely decreased across the world.
E.In the U. K., leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas.
F.Globally, however, people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles every minute.
G.But in the meantime, here are four things you can do to reduce plastic waste now.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Steven Lippoth was an experienced fisherman who had been fishing on the sea for many years. He had planned on taking an 8-hour deep-sea fishing, which would (hopefully) harvest marlins and sailfish to land him a large amount of money. In his fishing village, the competition was high and Steven Lippoth was hoping to bring back enough fish.
Early in the morning, Steven Lippoth set out on a 24-foot boat with a small motor. Onboard were various fishing tools, a portable electronic radio, and a large icebox to hold the fish. The journey seemed like it would be as easy as he had hoped. Before long he had caught over 500 pounds of fish, almost overloading his icebox.
However, A few hours later, the journey took a turn for the worse. The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and in less than two minutes a terrible storm struck. A huge wave shook his boat violently. Steven Lippoth attempted to steer (驾驶) the boat back toward the coast, but it was impossible to see where the coast was in the rain. Frightened and shocked, he tried to keep the balance of the boat in order not to be overturned and thrown into the sea. When the storm finally cleared, Steven Lippoth was able to assess the damage. His motor was gone, the fishing net was damaged, and most of the portable electronics were damaged. There was enough power in the radio for Steven Lippoth to send a Mayday message to the coast guard, but it died before his location could be confirmed. The canvas (帆布) that was used to cover the icebox was torn. What made him a little relieved was that his fish were still there
Would the coast guard find him? What would happen if he had to spend the night on the sea? What should he do? He wondered. “I’m on my own now.” Steven Lippoth said to himself calmly.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
Night fell, it became colder and colder. ________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
The next morning, the sound of a coastguard ship woke him up. _______________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Night fell, it became colder and colder. The cold moonlight cast a pale glow over the sea. The icy sea spray crept down his neck and a chilly wind swept his body. Steven Lippoth couldn’t help shivering. Being an experienced fisherman, he knew he should try to use anything that he could to keep himself warm. He wrapped himself with the torn canvas, crouching in the corner to avoid the wind. Some terrible thoughts once flashed through his mind, but looking at the fish he had harvested, he felt a sense of comfort. “It is only one night, and the coast guard will find me sooner or later.” Steven Lippoth murmured and fell asleep.
The next morning, the sound of a coastguard ship woke him up. Steven Lippoth sprang to his feet and waved his hands wildly at the ship, calling out with all his strength with his voice trembling. A few minutes later, the guard arrived and pulled him to the board with great care. It was at this moment that Steven Lippoth burst into tears. He repeatedly expressed his deepest gratitude to the coast guard. The guards were shocked to find Steven safe and sound considering how terrible the storm was yesterday. Only Steven Lippoth knew it was his sensible action and positive attitude that saved him.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了经验丰富的渔夫Steven Lippoth计划进行8小时的深海捕鱼,希望能捕到大量金钱鱼和马林鱼。他在海上捕鱼时,遭遇了一场可怕的暴风雨,导致他的船只受损,电子设备失灵。虽然他的鱼还在,但他无法联系到海岸警卫队。Steven Lippoth不得不独自面对海洋,不知道海岸警卫队是否能找到他,也不知道如果必须在海上过夜,他该怎么办。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“夜幕降临,天气变得越来越冷。”可知,第一段可描写面对冰冷的海风,经验丰富的Steven Lippoth用尽办法保暖,虽然感到害怕,但他还是相信海岸警卫队一定会找到他。
②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上,海岸警卫队船只的声音把他吵醒了。”可知,第二段可描写海岸警卫队找到Steven Lippoth,对他在昨天的风暴中安然无恙感到震惊,但他知道是自己的明智行动和积极态度拯救了自己。

Do you know someone who has a hard time opening bottles or jars at home? Eighth-grade students in Mark Bolt’s engineering class were tasked with making changes to a product to make it easier for people with challenges to use.
Rather than requiring step-by-step directions for creating their projects, Mr. Bolt preferred to leave students’ creative paths open. Let’s see some of the students’ products.
A Device That Easily Opens Bottles
To find a solution for her grandmother who had difficulty in opening bottles, Alana looked at existing bottle openers and then she created her own.
She used a piece of wood shaped like a cellphone. Next, she made three holes of different sizes in the wood so that they could match common bottle cap sizes. Each hole also had a layer of dried, sticky hot glue, which provided a firm grip for the bottle caps. With a simple twist of the device, her grandmother could open bottles without help.
A Coffee Cup With A Supportive “Thumb”
Due to arthritis, a disease that causes pain in or around the joints, Robert’s grandfather had trouble holding a coffee cup. Robert simplified a robotic “third thumb” device created by a London designer. He used rubber bands and a 3D-printed plastic form to make the extra “thumb” which can firmly support the bottom of a cup.
A Reading Tool
Michael noticed how dyslexia——a common reading disorder, made it difficult for a friend to follow along on pages full of text. It is a language-processing condition. The brain tends to confuse the order of numbers, letters and other images.
So, Michael created a small adjustable window-blind-style device. “My friend could isolate small sections of text while reading,” he said.
21.Alana’s grandmother could open bottles easily by______.
A.sticking bottle caps to the device
B.connecting the device to a cellphone
C.twisting the device that has holes in it
D.cutting holes of different sizes in wood
22.What did Robert do to help his grandfather?
A.He reformed a process to form a metal “thumb”.
B.He created a simpler “thumb” device in the cup.
C.He added plastic materials to the “thumb” device.
D.He used bands and a 3D-printed form to make a “thumb”.
23.Which of the following words can best describe the students in the passage?
A.Independent and patient. B.Creative and considerate.
C.Ambitious and hardworking. D.Open-minded and generous.

One of the improv (即兴表演) classes I attended regularly was taught by Jim Cranna every Saturday afternoon. Sometimes, as many as twenty-five to sixty-plus folks showed up. Jim made sure to fit everyone in so they could improve their skills. The class lasted for three hours. The usual cast of comic actors played improv comedy games. And we would go to the nearest mini market located in the building and get a snack or coffee during breaks.
One day, three of us were standing outside the building, when Robin William — an internationally famous actor and comic walked by, enjoying the fresh bay air. Completely frozen, my fellow comics couldn’t summon up the courage to just say “hi” to Robin, who was with a friend. I froze for a moment, but then I composed myself.
I told them, “Hey, if you guys can’t handle it, then I will ask him to come and join us for the second half of class.” I could hear them mumble under their breath, “Yeah, sure, right. You’re going to ask Robin Williams to come to our comedy class. Good luck with that one!”
So I went up to Robin and his friend and asked him to join us. “We’re having an improve comedy class. We’re on break now, but we would be most humbled and honored if you would join us for the second half of the class.” Robin looked directly in my eyes and said with little hesitation, “Okay.” It was like a grown-up child being asked to come and play. With that, he and his friend followed me up to the class.
When he saw Robin, Jim said, “Oh my goodness, look who Micheline is bringing to class.” Jim’s eyes were all in astonishment and delight. “Why, it’s Robin Williams!” “Robin and his friend stayed the rest of the class and at the end of the class, Robin and Jim performed a skit (滑稽短剧). We actually watched him shape-shift as he prepared physically and mentally for his made-up character. He gave it his all. It was truly magical.”
What a delight for all of us that Saturday afternoon! All I know is that if I hadn’t gathered up the courage to ask Robin to join us, none of us would have had that experience.
24.What does the underlined word “compose” mean in paragraph 2?

Research has showed physical activities are very important for students. So many schools are now encouraging students to take part in any form of healthy exercise.
Physical education is an important part of healthy living for people of all age groups, especially for the students. This is because school life is full of stress.
Besides that, in today’s world, many school children eat unhealthy foods. These may include soft drinks, pizzas and burgers. Eating these foods can make school children gain weight.
Physical education at school helps prevent school children from putting on weight. Physical exercise and activities will help them burn off more calories (卡路里). If these calories are not burned off, they will be stored as fat.
At the same time, such activities play an important role in the growth and development of the bones (骨骼). Exercise such as jumping is especially important for school children.
A physically active student will also have a healthy heart. Research shows that kids who perform aerobic (有氧的) exercise, two to three times a week for at least twenty minutes, have a healthier heart compared with those who don’t take part in physical exercise. Some kinds of the healthy aerobic exercise are playing basketball, playing soccer and so on.
28.What are many schools encouraging their students to do?
A.Study hard and get good grades.
B.Join in different kinds of sports games.
C.Take part in any form of healthy exercise.
D.Take part in different kinds of after-school activities.
29.What does the underlined word “gain” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Prevent B.Discuss C.Lose D.Increase
30.What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage?
A.It’s not easy for students to receive physical education.
B.Physical activities are good for students in many ways.
C.Those who don’t take part in physical exercise can’t keep fit.
D.Students should have more time to receive knowledge and education.
31.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.Healthy living habits
B.Students’ school life
C.Exercise more to keep healthy
D.Different kinds of aerobic exercise

Imagine if there were a robotic fish that filtered microplastic out of the water as it swam. Well, now there is one, and it’s the physical version of the winning concept in the first-ever Natural Robotics Contest.
Announced this May, the University of Surrey’s Natural Robots Contest invited members of the public to give their concepts for animal—or plant-inspired robots capable of performing activities that would help the world.
Plans called for experts from various British and European research centers to select what they thought was the best concept, which would then be made into a real robot. Engineers would proceed to further develop the technology.
The winning concept turned out to be the plastic-collecting Robo-fish, designed by chemistry student Eleanor Mackintosh—who is a University of Surrey student. Mackintosh said, “Fish’s gills are an incredible mechanism in nature that are specialized to filter oxygen into the bloodstream—so I adapted my design from that, with the purpose of dealing with the plastic pollution in the water.”
The robot swims by moving its tail, holding its mouth wide open to-collect water and microplastics in its belly as it does so. Once that cavity is full, the robot closes its mouth, opens its gills, and pushes the water out through. A fine net attached to the gill flaps allows the water to pass through, but captures the microplastic.
In its current physical form, the 50-cm-long Robo-fish collects microplastic as small as 2 millimeters. It also uses sensors to monitor underwater environment, plus it tracks its movements within the water.
Future robots could capture much smaller particles. Other possible improvements include a faster body shape, a more powerful tail, and the ability to swim autonomously.
32.How do the participants attend the Natural Robotics Contest?
A.By handing in real robots. B.By sending the concepts of robots.
C.By selecting the best robot concepts. D.By developing the technology of robots.
33.What inspired Mackintosh to design the robot?
A.The enthusiasm for robots. B.The function of fish’s gills.
C.The body shape of the fish. D.The plastic pollution in the water.
34.What does the author intend to show in paragraph 5?
A.How the robotic fish works in water. B.How the robotic fish is further improved.
C.Why Mackintosh’s robot won the contest. D.What materials the robotic fish is made of.
35.What is the best title of the text?
A.The First Bio-Inspired Robotics Contest B.The One-Size-Fits-All Solution to Plastics
C.An Autonomously Operative Robotic Fish D.A Student-Designed Plastic-Collecting Fish

Four Tips for Using Less Plastic(塑料)
As we all know, the world has a plastic problem — and it is increasing. Scientists are working to find along-term solution by making plastic more biodegradable(生物可降解的). 36
Quit using plastic bags. 37 People use a trillion plastic bags worldwide every year About 10 percent a reused in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day. In contrast, the average Danish uses four single-use bags per year. Today, other countries (such as Germany and New Zealand) either make customers pay for plastic bags or have stopped using them completely.
38 Today, around 8 3 billion plastic straws(吸管) pollute the world’s beaches. So when you order a drink, say no to the straw, or bring your own reusable one. In 2018, Seattle became the first major U. S. city to ban plastic straws, and many other cities are set to follow its example.
Don’t use plastic bottles. Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any type of drink you like. Some cities, like Bundanoon in Australia and San Francisco in the U. S., have completely or partially(部分地) started quitting bottled water 39 .
Avoid plastic packaging. Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. 40 They also want to tax plastic take out containers.
A.Don’t use plastic straws.
B.Don’t pollute the beaches.
C.Instead, take your own reusable shopping bag to the store.
D.Therefore, pollution has been largely decreased across the world.
E.In the U. K., leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas.
F.Globally, however, people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles every minute.
G.But in the meantime, here are four things you can do to reduce plastic waste now.

Steven Lippoth was an experienced fisherman who had been fishing on the sea for many years. He had planned on taking an 8-hour deep-sea fishing, which would (hopefully) harvest marlins and sailfish to land him a large amount of money. In his fishing village, the competition was high and Steven Lippoth was hoping to bring back enough fish.
Early in the morning, Steven Lippoth set out on a 24-foot boat with a small motor. Onboard were various fishing tools, a portable electronic radio, and a large icebox to hold the fish. The journey seemed like it would be as easy as he had hoped. Before long he had caught over 500 pounds of fish, almost overloading his icebox.
However, A few hours later, the journey took a turn for the worse. The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and in less than two minutes a terrible storm struck. A huge wave shook his boat violently. Steven Lippoth attempted to steer (驾驶) the boat back toward the coast, but it was impossible to see where the coast was in the rain. Frightened and shocked, he tried to keep the balance of the boat in order not to be overturned and thrown into the sea. When the storm finally cleared, Steven Lippoth was able to assess the damage. His motor was gone, the fishing net was damaged, and most of the portable electronics were damaged. There was enough power in the radio for Steven Lippoth to send a Mayday message to the coast guard, but it died before his location could be confirmed. The canvas (帆布) that was used to cover the icebox was torn. What made him a little relieved was that his fish were still there
Would the coast guard find him? What would happen if he had to spend the night on the sea? What should he do? He wondered. “I’m on my own now.” Steven Lippoth said to himself calmly.

I told them, “Hey, if you guys can’t handle it, then I will ask him to come and join us for the second half of class.” I could hear them mumble under their breath, “Yeah, sure, right. You’re going to ask Robin Williams to come to our comedy class. Good luck with that one!”
So I went up to Robin and his friend and asked him to join us. “We’re having an improve comedy class. We’re on break now, but we would be most humbled and honored if you would join us for the second half of the class.” Robin looked directly in my eyes and said with little hesitation, “Okay.” It was like a grown-up child being asked to come and play. With that, he and his friend followed me up to the class.
When he saw Robin, Jim said, “Oh my goodness, look who Micheline is bringing to class.” Jim’s eyes were all in astonishment and delight. “Why, it’s Robin Williams!” “Robin and his friend stayed the rest of the class and at the end of the class, Robin and Jim performed a skit (滑稽短剧). We actually watched him shape-shift as he prepared physically and mentally for his made-up character. He gave it his all. It was truly magical.”
What a delight for all of us that Saturday afternoon! All I know is that if I hadn’t gathered up the courage to ask Robin to join us, none of us would have had that experience.

Research has showed physical activities are very important for students. So many schools are now encouraging students to take part in any form of healthy exercise.
Physical education is an important part of healthy living for people of all age groups, especially for the students. This is because school life is full of stress.
Besides that, in today’s world, many school children eat unhealthy foods. These may include soft drinks, pizzas and burgers. Eating these foods can make school children gain weight.
Physical education at school helps prevent school children from putting on weight. Physical exercise and activities will help them burn off more calories (卡路里). If these calories are not burned off, they will be stored as fat.
At the same time, such activities play an important role in the growth and development of the bones (骨骼). Exercise such as jumping is especially important for school children.
A physically active student will also have a healthy heart. Research shows that kids who perform aerobic (有氧的) exercise, two to three times a week for at least twenty minutes, have a healthier heart compared with those who don’t take part in physical exercise. Some kinds of the healthy aerobic exercise are playing basketball, playing soccer and so on.
28.What are many schools encouraging their students to do?
A.Study hard and get good grades.
B.Join in different kinds of sports games.
C.Take part in any form of healthy exercise.
D.Take part in different kinds of after-school activities.
29.What does the underlined word “gain” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Prevent B.Discuss C.Lose D.Increase
30.What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage?
A.It’s not easy for students to receive physical education.
B.Physical activities are good for students in many ways.
C.Those who don’t take part in physical exercise can’t keep fit.
D.Students should have more time to receive knowledge and education.
31.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.Healthy living habits

Imagine if there were a robotic fish that filtered microplastic out of the water as it swam. Well, now there is one, and it’s the physical version of the winning concept in the first-ever Natural Robotics Contest.
Announced this May, the University of Surrey’s Natural Robots Contest invited members of the public to give their concepts for animal—or plant-inspired robots capable of performing activities that would help the world.
Plans called for experts from various British and European research centers to select what they thought was the best concept, which would then be made into a real robot. Engineers would proceed to further develop the technology.
The winning concept turned out to be the plastic-collecting Robo-fish, designed by chemistry student Eleanor Mackintosh—who is a University of Surrey student. Mackintosh said, “Fish’s gills are an incredible mechanism in nature that are specialized to filter oxygen into the bloodstream—so I adapted my design from that, with the purpose of dealing with the plastic pollution in the water.”
The robot swims by moving its tail, holding its mouth wide open to-collect water and microplastics in its belly as it does so. Once that cavity is full, the robot closes its mouth, opens its gills, and pushes the water out through. A fine net attached to the gill flaps allows the water to pass through, but captures the microplastic.
In its current physical form, the 50-cm-long Robo-fish collects microplastic as small as 2 millimeters. It also uses sensors to monitor underwater environment, plus it tracks its movements within the water.
Future robots could capture much smaller particles. Other possible improvements include a faster body shape, a more powerful tail, and the ability to swim autonomously.
32.How do the participants attend the Natural Robotics Contest?
A.By handing in real robots. B.By sending the concepts of robots.
C.By selecting the best robot concepts. D.By developing the technology of robots.
33.What inspired Mackintosh to design the robot?
A.The enthusiasm for robots. B.The function of fish’s gills.
C.The body shape of the fish. D.The plastic pollution in the water.
34.What does the author intend to show in paragraph 5?
A.How the robotic fish works in water. B.How the robotic fish is further improved.
C.Why Mackintosh’s robot won the contest. D.What materials the robotic fish is made of.
35.What is the best title of the text?
A.The First Bio-Inspired Robotics Contest B.The One-Size-Fits-All Solution to Plastics
C.An Autonomously Operative Robotic Fish D.A Student-Designed Plastic-Collecting Fish

Four Tips for Using Less Plastic(塑料)
As we all know, the world has a plastic problem — and it is increasing. Scientists are working to find along-term solution by making plastic more biodegradable(生物可降解的). 36
Quit using plastic bags. 37 People use a trillion plastic bags worldwide every year About 10 percent a reused in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day. In contrast, the average Danish uses four single-use bags per year. Today, other countries (such as Germany and New Zealand) either make customers pay for plastic bags or have stopped using them completely.
38 Today, around 8 3 billion plastic straws(吸管) pollute the world’s beaches. So when you order a drink, say no to the straw, or bring your own reusable one. In 2018, Seattle became the first major U. S. city to ban plastic straws, and many other cities are set to follow its example.
Don’t use plastic bottles. Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any type of drink you like. Some cities, like Bundanoon in Australia and San Francisco in the U. S., have completely or partially(部分地) started quitting bottled water 39 .
Avoid plastic packaging. Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. 40 They also want to tax plastic take out containers.
A.Don’t use plastic straws.
B.Don’t pollute the beaches.
C.Instead, take your own reusable shopping bag to the store.
D.Therefore, pollution has been largely decreased across the world.
E.In the U. K., leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas.
F.Globally, however, people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles every minute.
G.But in the meantime, here are four things you can do to reduce plastic waste now.

Steven Lippoth was an experienced fisherman who had been fishing on the sea for many years. He had planned on taking an 8-hour deep-sea fishing, which would (hopefully) harvest marlins and sailfish to land him a large amount of money. In his fishing village, the competition was high and Steven Lippoth was hoping to bring back enough fish.
Early in the morning, Steven Lippoth set out on a 24-foot boat with a small motor. Onboard were various fishing tools, a portable electronic radio, and a large icebox to hold the fish. The journey seemed like it would be as easy as he had hoped. Before long he had caught over 500 pounds of fish, almost overloading his icebox.
However, A few hours later, the journey took a turn for the worse. The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds and in less than two minutes a terrible storm struck. A huge wave shook his boat violently. Steven Lippoth attempted to steer (驾驶) the boat back toward the coast, but it was impossible to see where the coast was in the rain. Frightened and shocked, he tried to keep the balance of the boat in order not to be overturned and thrown into the sea. When the storm finally cleared, Steven Lippoth was able to assess the damage. His motor was gone, the fishing net was damaged, and most of the portable electronics were damaged. There was enough power in the radio for Steven Lippoth to send a Mayday message to the coast guard, but it died before his location could be confirmed. The canvas (帆布) that was used to cover the icebox was torn. What made him a little relieved was that his fish were still there
Would the coast guard find him? What would happen if he had to spend the night on the sea? What should he do? He wondered. “I’m on my own now.” Steven Lippoth said to himself calmly.
