My grandfather loves fishing. When we were younger, he tried to get my brother and I excited about it. “It’s a wonderful way to spend the afternoon together,” he told us. Every Saturday he asked us to go with him. At first we would, but fishing seemed so boring to us. At last we told him that fishing wasn’t our thing. After that, he would go alone. One Saturday afternoon not long ago, I changed my mind and decided to go with him. I thought that maybe I would enjoy fishing more now that a few years have passed. So down to the water we went. We got in the water, threw the line, and waited. After three hours, all we had was a single tiny fish. “Grandpa, why do you like standing out here for hours like this?” I asked. “You’ ve done nothing all afternoon!” “Well” he said. “When I was a boy, fishing wasn’t ‘nothing’. In fact, it was everything. I didn’t have TV, or video games, or smart phones. So I fished. Now, when I fish, I go back to being that boy. It was a happy time.” This photo really changed how I see my grandfather. He is the man who has seen many changes and has had many experiences. Looking at the photo also reminds me that opinion of fishing changed that afternoon. Right after I took the picture, Grandpa felt a strong pull on his line. In a second the two of us were struggling to bring in the biggest fish I had ever seen! It was really exciting. From then on I went fishing with him whenever I could. 26.

Actually, you have an amazing biological clock (生物钟) inside your body which can tell you some true facts. From 11 p.m. to 3 a.m., your liver (肝脏) gets larger when filled with more blood and it lets the rubbish in your body out. If you go to sleep at 11 p.m., you have 4 hours to clean out the rubbish. And If you sleep at 2 a.m., there’s only one hour to go. What if you sleep after 3 a.m.? Unfortunately, you won’t have any time to clean yourself! If you continue with this sleeping habit, there will be more toxins (毒素) in your body. You know what will happen next. What if you go to bed late and wake up late? Did you realize you felt very tired the next day no matter how much you slept? Going to bed late is very bad for your health. Besides not having enough time to clean your body, you will miss out on other important body functions, too. From 3 a.m. to 5 a.m., you should exercise and breathe in fresh air to take in good energy into your body. And from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., it’s the best time to have breakfast. This is your most important meal in a day. Not having breakfast causes lots of health problems in the future. So you must know the importance of your biological clock. If you have much work to do until late at night, why not go to bed early and wake up early to do it? You’ll get the same time, but your body will get fit. 31. What time are you supposed to go to bed? A. At 11 p.m. B. At 2 a.m. C. At 3 a.m. D. At 5 a.m. 32. What will happen to you if you always go to bed late? A. You’ ll lose weight. B. You’ ll do more work. C. Your liver will get larger. D. There will be more toxins in your body. 33 The underlined word“ functions” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________ in Chinese. A. 素质 B. 功能 C. 释放 D. 消化 34. Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage? A. The liver helps clean out the rubbish in the body. B. It’s best to have breakfast between 7 a. m. to 9 a. m. C. It’s necessary to stay up late if there’s much work to do. D. You’d better enjoy a good sleep from 1 1 p.m. to 3 a.m. 35. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. Follow your biological clock and you’ll get fit. B. Do different things in different times of a day. C. Doing exercise is quite necessary. D. Go to bed as early as possible. 【答案】31. A 32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍生物钟，强调什么时间段睡觉对我们身体有益，什么时间段睡觉对我们身体有害。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“From 11 p. m. to 3 a. m., your liver (肝脏) gets larger when filled with more blood and it lets the rubbish in your body out. If you go to sleep at 11 p. m., you have 4 hours to clean out the rubbish.”可知，下午十一点到凌晨三点之间，肝脏进行血液循环，向体外排出垃圾。所以最好是在下午十一点睡觉。故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Unfortunately, you won’t have any time to clean yourself! If you continue with this sleeping habit, there will be more toxins (毒素) in your body.”可知，如果晚睡，人的体内会有更多的毒素。故选D。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Going to bed late is very bad for your health.”可知，晚睡对健康非常不利。从而可知人会失去一些身体的功能。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“If you have much work to do until late at night, why not go to bed early and wake up early to do it?”可知，如果有很多工作要工作到很晚，建议早睡早起。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Actually, you have an amazing biological clock (生物钟 ) inside your body which can tell you some true facts.”可知，遵循体内的生物钟，你将变得健康。故选A。 D One night, while Liu Guoliang was sitting quietly by the fireplace enjoying the warmth of winter, he suddenly got an idea for a problem that had been thinking about for a long time. Liu Guoliang, a scientist, discovered that plastic is similar to the fatty acid (脂肪酸) that is used to make soap. He believed that it should be possible to change plastic into the fatty acid, and then into soap. But the problem was that plastic is large, but the fatty acid is much smaller. That night, he watched the smoke rise from the fire and thought about how smoke was made up of very small pieces. Then he wondered whether burning plastic could work the same way. Liu and his team built a tool for safely burning plastic and successfully used it to turn plastic into soap. It was the world’s first soap made from plastic. Liu’s method works on polyethylene and polypropylene, the most common plastics. They make up about half of all plastic waste: nearly 200 million tons a year. The method also works on “end-of-life” plastics that cannot be recycled through usual methods. Still, Liu doesn’t think this is the best way to avoid plastic pollution. In his opinion, the best method is to reduce (减少) the use of plastic as much as possible. 36. The obstacle (障碍) to changing plastic into soap is the ________ of the plastic. A. size B. form C. shape D. color 37. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. What Liu did with plastic. B. How plastic is changed into soap. C. How Liu got the idea for his problem. D. Why plastic can be changed into soap. 38. What do we know about Liu’s method of making soap out of plastic? A. It is not safe. B. It works on the most common plastics. C. “End-of-life” plastics cannot be recycled through it. D. It has reduced nearly 200 million tons of plastic waste. 39. What is Liu’s suggestion in the end? A. Using soap made from plastic. B. Recycling plastic in this new way. C. Avoiding using “end-of-life” plastics. D. Trying not to use plastic whenever possible. 40. What can we learn from the story? A. A good scientist will never stop learning. B. Great ideas can come from everyday life. C. Success depends on long- term hard work. D. Nothing is impossible if you believe in yourself. 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. B 39. D 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了科学家Liu Guoliang将塑料转化为肥皂的相关内容，呼吁人们尽可能减少塑料的使用。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But the problem was that plastic is large, but the fatty acid is much smaller”可知，障碍在于塑料和脂肪酸的大小不同，故选A。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“That night, he watched the smoke rise from the fire and thought about how smoke was made up of very small pieces.”可知，第三段叙述了刘是如何想到解决他的问题的，故选C。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Liu’s method works on polyethylene and polypropylene, the most common plastics”可知，他方法适用于常见的塑料，故选B。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In his opinion, the best method is to reduce (减少) the use of plastic as much as possible” 可知，其建议是尽可能避免使用塑料，故选D。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。整个故事描述了从观察日常生活中常见的现象中获得灵感，为塑料转化为肥皂的成功作出了贡献，故选B。 四、口语交际(共5小题，计5分) 根据对话内容，从文后选择恰当的句子填入对话相应的空白处，使对话完整，合乎情景 (有两个多余选项)。 A: Do you know culture shock, Sam?

Do you like its taste? Some people dislike it because of its bitter (苦的）taste, but more and more people are becoming interested in traditional Chinese medicine for the reason that it’s an effective way to cure (治疗）illnesses. For example, if you have a sore throat, you could drink hot water with Gancao. Chinese people have been using traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. Before the western medicine appeared in China, Chinese doctors went to the mountains to pick herbs (草药). Then they made the herbs into Chinese medicine soup to cure patients. When we talk about Chinese medicine, we always think of Li Shizhen, one of the most famous doctors in ancient China. He used to travel in the countryside with a bag of herbs and cure patients. He spent 27 years writing Compendium of Material Medica (《本草纲目》）. In 2020, COVID-19 (新型冠状病毒）hit China and many other countries. Ever since then, traditional Chinese medicine has played an important role in the fight against COVID-19. It’s reported that 91.5% of the COVID-19 patients in China received the traditional Chinese medicine treatment (治疗), and it worked well on more than 90% of these patients. In September, 2020, Zhang Boli was honored as “the People’s Hero” for his contributions (贡献). Zhang shared the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine like LianhuaQingwen with foreign doctors. In a word, traditional Chinese medicine is the treasure of China. 61.

Herbs. 63. Li Shizhen. 64. In September, 2020. 65. Yes, it did. 【解析】 【分析】本文向我们介绍中医的发展，告诉我们中医的重要性。 【61题详解】 根据“Some people dislike it because of its bitter (苦的）taste”可知，有些人不喜欢中药是因为它的苦味。故填Because of its bitter taste. 【62题详解】 根据“Chinese doctors went to the mountains to pick herbs (草药).”可知，中国医生到山里采药。故填Herbs. 【63题详解】 根据“When we talk about Chinese medicine, we always think of Li Shizhen…He spent 27 years writing Compendium of Material Medica (《本草纲目》）.”可知，李时珍写了《本草纲目》。故填Li Shizhen. 【64题详解】 根据“ In September, 2020, Zhang Boli was honored as ‘the People’s Hero’ for his contributions (贡献).”可知，故填2020年9月，张伯礼被授予“人民英雄”称号。故填In September, 2020. 【65题详解】 根据“Ever since then, traditional Chinese medicine has played an important role in the fight against COVID-19.”可知，中医药在抗击新冠肺炎疫情中发挥了重要作用。故填Yes, it did. 八、书面表达 (共1题，计15分) 66. 假定你是李华，你的笔友Anna想了解中国春节的节日文化和剪纸艺术，请阅读以下邮件并回复。内容包括邮件中所包含的所有要点。 注意： 1. 词数80-100左右。 2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Li Hua, How is everything going?

B Whenever I look at this photo, I think of an afternoon fishing with my grandfather. My grandfather loves fishing. When we were younger, he tried to get my brother and I excited about it. “It’s a wonderful way to spend the afternoon together,” he told us. Every Saturday he asked us to go with him. At first we would, but fishing seemed so boring to us. At last we told him that fishing wasn’t our thing. After that, he would go alone. One Saturday afternoon not long ago, I changed my mind and decided to go with him. I thought that maybe I would enjoy fishing more now that a few years have passed. So down to the water we went. We got in the water, threw the line, and waited. After three hours, all we had was a single tiny fish. “Grandpa, why do you like standing out here for hours like this?” I asked. “You’ ve done nothing all afternoon!” “Well” he said. “When I was a boy, fishing wasn’t ‘nothing’. In fact, it was everything. I didn’t have TV, or video games, or smart phones. So I fished. Now, when I fish, I go back to being that boy. It was a happy time.” This photo really changed how I see my grandfather. He is the man who has seen many changes and has had many experiences. Looking at the photo also reminds me that opinion of fishing changed that afternoon. Right after I took the picture, Grandpa felt a strong pull on his line. In a second the two of us were struggling to bring in the biggest fish I had ever seen! It was really exciting. From then on I went fishing with him whenever I could. 26. Why did the writer decide to go fishing with his grandpa that day? A. Because it was Saturday again. B. Because his brother wouldn’t go. C. Because he knew he’d catch a large fish. D. Because he came up with a different idea. 27. In the writer’s grandpa’s opinion, fishing used to be ________. A. part of his happy childhood B. a wonderful way to make friends C. not much fun without his family D. more boring than a smart phone 28. It is clear that ________.

What can we infer (推断) from the text? A. The writer’s brother also loved fishing gradually. B. This photo reminded the writer of the comfortable life at present. C. The writer finally understood his grandpa and was willing to stay with him. D. It’s more popular for teenagers to go fishing than playing with smart phones. C Is there a best time to sleep? Actually, you have an amazing biological clock (生物钟) inside your body which can tell you some true facts. From 11 p.m. to 3 a.m., your liver (肝脏) gets larger when filled with more blood and it lets the rubbish in your body out. If you go to sleep at 11 p.m., you have 4 hours to clean out the rubbish. And If you sleep at 2 a.m., there’s only one hour to go. What if you sleep after 3 a.m.? Unfortunately, you won’t have any time to clean yourself! If you continue with this sleeping habit, there will be more toxins (毒素) in your body. You know what will happen next. What if you go to bed late and wake up late? Did you realize you felt very tired the next day no matter how much you slept? Going to bed late is very bad for your health. Besides not having enough time to clean your body, you will miss out on other important body functions, too. From 3 a.m. to 5 a.m., you should exercise and breathe in fresh air to take in good energy into your body. And from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., it’s the best time to have breakfast. This is your most important meal in a day. Not having breakfast causes lots of health problems in the future. So you must know the importance of your biological clock. If you have much work to do until late at night, why not go to bed early and wake up early to do it? You’ll get the same time, but your body will get fit. 31. What time are you supposed to go to bed? A. At 11 p.m. B. At 2 a.m. C. At 3 a.m. D. At 5 a.m. 32. What will happen to you if you always go to bed late? A. You’ ll lose weight. B. You’ ll do more work. C. Your liver will get larger. D. There will be more toxins in your body. 33. The underlined word“ functions” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________ in Chinese. A. 素质 B. 功能 C. 释放 D. 消化 34. Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage? A. The liver helps clean out the rubbish in the body. B. It’s best to have breakfast between 7 a. m. to 9 a. m. C. It’s necessary to stay up late if there’s much work to do. D. You’d better enjoy a good sleep from 1 1 p.m. to 3 a.m. 35. What does the passage mainly tell us? A. Follow your biological clock and you’ll get fit. B. Do different things in different times of a day. C. Doing exercise is quite necessary. D. Go to bed as early as possible. D One night, while Liu Guoliang was sitting quietly by the fireplace enjoying the warmth of winter, he suddenly got an idea for a problem that had been thinking about for a long time. Liu Guoliang, a scientist, discovered that plastic is similar to the fatty acid (脂肪酸) that is used to make soap. He believed that it should be possible to change plastic into the fatty acid, and then into soap. But the problem was that plastic is large, but the fatty acid is much smaller. That night, he watched the smoke rise from the fire and thought about how smoke was made up of very small pieces. Then he wondered whether burning plastic could work the same way. Liu and his team built a tool for safely burning plastic and successfully used it to turn plastic into soap. It was the world’s first soap made from plastic. Liu’s method works on polyethylene and polypropylene, the most common plastics. They make up about half of all plastic waste: nearly 200 million tons a year. The method also works on “end-of-life” plastics that cannot be recycled through usual methods. Still, Liu doesn’t think this is the best way to avoid plastic pollution. In his opinion, the best method is to reduce (减少) the use of plastic as much as possible. 36. The obstacle (障碍) to changing plastic into soap is the ________ of the plastic. A size B. form C. shape D. color 37. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A What Liu did with plastic. B. How plastic is changed into soap. C. How Liu got the idea for his problem. D. Why plastic can be changed into soap. 38. What do we know about Liu’s method of making soap out of plastic? A. It is not safe. B. It works on the most common plastics. C “End-of-life” plastics cannot be recycled through it. D. It has reduced nearly 200 million tons of plastic waste. 39. What is Liu’s suggestion in the end? A. Using soap made from plastic. B. Recycling plastic in this new way. C. Avoiding using “end-of-life” plastics. D. Trying not to use plastic whenever possible. 40. What can we learn from the story? A. A good scientist will never stop learning. B. Great ideas can come from everyday life. C. Success depends on long- term hard work. D. Nothing is impossible if you believe in yourself. 四、口语交际(共5小题，计5分) 根据对话内容，从文后选择恰当的句子填入对话相应的空白处，使对话完整，合乎情景 (有两个多余选项)。 A: Do you know culture shock, Sam? B: Sure.

Do you like its taste? Some people dislike it because of its bitter (苦的）taste, but more and more people are becoming interested in traditional Chinese medicine for the reason that it’s an effective way to cure (治疗）illnesses. For example, if you have a sore throat, you could drink hot water with Gancao. Chinese people have been using traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. Before the western medicine appeared in China, Chinese doctors went to the mountains to pick herbs (草药). Then they made the herbs into Chinese medicine soup to cure patients. When we talk about Chinese medicine, we always think of Li Shizhen, one of the most famous doctors in ancient China. He used to travel in the countryside with a bag of herbs and cure patients. He spent 27 years writing Compendium of Material Medica (《本草纲目》）. In 2020, COVID-19 (新型冠状病毒）hit China and many other countries. Ever since then, traditional Chinese medicine has played an important role in the fight against COVID-19. It’s reported that 91.5% of the COVID-19 patients in China received the traditional Chinese medicine treatment (治疗), and it worked well on more than 90% of these patients. In September, 2020, Zhang Boli was honored as “the People’s Hero” for his contributions (贡献). Zhang shared the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine like LianhuaQingwen with foreign doctors. In a word, traditional Chinese medicine is the treasure of China. 61. Why do some people dislike traditional Chinese medicine? _____________________________________________________________ 62.
