It is a place where musicians and music lovers connect with each other through their favorite songs. However, if you are a beginner on SoundCloud, then sharing and uploading music can seem like a complex task. This is why we have put together a step by step guide on how you can upload music to SoundCloud. Supported Formats(格式): The first thing that you need to know is the formats that are supported by SoundCloud. SoundCloud supports the following formats for music: FLAC, AIFF, WAV, OGG, MP2, WMA, MP3, AMR, AAC, and ALAC. Though the list seems limited and short, this is all that SoundCloud supports. If you have music in any other format, you will have to convert (转换) it to the required format before uploading. Things to pay attention to before uploading: .You must have a verified (已验证的)email address associated with your SoundCloud account before you can begin uploading. . The maximum upload size on SoundCloud is5GB (gigabytes) while the maximum length of the audio file can be 6 hours. . There is a time allowance on SoundCloud accounts. A free user can only upload up to 180 minutes of music content in total while a Pro user can upload music of up to 360 minutes. Now that you know the exact requirements of uploading a music file to SoundCloud, let us take a look at how you can upload music to SoundCloud. 21. What can we learn about SoundCloud? A. It creates popular music. B. It supports music in MP1 format. C. It is meant for musicians D. It helps people share music. 22. Which is a must for someone to upload music to SoundCloud? A. Having a verified email address. B. Choosing a music file of 3 hours. C. Converting music to WAV format. D. Providing a song in the size of 5 GB. 23. What is the text probably taken from? A. A report. B. Instructions. C. Reviews. D. An advertisement. 【答案】21. D 22. A 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，文章主要介绍了如何将音乐上传到SoundCloud。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句“It is a place where musicians and music lovers connect with each other through their favorite songs.(这是音乐家和音乐爱好者通过他们喜欢的歌曲相互联系的地方。)”可知SoundCloud可以帮助人们分享音乐，故选D项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Things to pay attention to before uploading部分的“You must have a verified (已验证的)email address associated with your SoundCloud account before you can begin uploading.(在开始上传之前，您必须有一个与SoundCloud帐户相关联的经过验证的电子邮件地址。)”可知如果一个人想将音乐上传到SoundCloud，他必须有一个与SoundCloud帐户相关联的经过验证的电子邮件地址，故选A项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“However, if you are a beginner on SoundCloud, then sharing and uploading music can seem like a complex task. This is why we have put together a step by step guide on how you can upload music to SoundCloud.(然而，如果你是SoundCloud的初学者，那么分享和上传音乐似乎是一项复杂的任务。这就是为什么我们将如何将音乐上传到SoundCloud的一步一步的指南放在一起。)”以及最后一段“Now that you know the exact requirements of uploading a music file to SoundCloud, let us take a look at how you can upload music to SoundCloud.(现在你知道了上传音乐文件到SoundCloud的确切要求，让我们来看看如何上传音乐到SoundCloud。)”以及其他段落的内容可知文章主要就如何将音乐上传到SoundCloud给出了具体的说明和指导，所以文章最有可能出自一份用法说明，故选B项。 B Using the natural elements around her, Kala Baybatan Tanaka navigates the ocean in a canoe (独木舟). She is part of a four-woman team that recently set the record for the fastest rowing time from California to Hawaii. Kala has deep ties to her Hawaiian roots. Her ancestors navigated the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars, the sun, the currents and the wind. Today, she does the same. It’s not that she navigates without technology. Rather, she uses the natural technology around her. It’s called Wayfinding. Wayfinding was taught to her by her father who had learned it from their ancestors. During the day, Kala uses the sun until it hits a certain height. When she gets closer to land, she looks for certain species of land birds and stationary (静止不动的) clouds that indicate there is land below. “I feel very connected to my ancestors when I sail. I feel very connected to the crew and the canoe,” says Kala. The voyage (航行) from California to Hawaii required Kala to spend long hours studying the day and the night skies. It was demanding, physical work. It also had its moments of feeling awful. For Kala, the beauty is in tying together the past and the present to enjoy the moment. Now when she is not sailing she teaches Wayfinding skills to school-aged children in hopes of passing on the skills her ancestors relied on. Today, it’s easy for children to get lost in the immediacy (直观性) of the technology of our day, to be consumed by screens and miss the nature that unfolds around us. But if we take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness. 24. How did Kala complete her voyage? A. By rowing a canoe. B. With friends’ help. C. With the help of a guide. D. By turning to her father. 25. Why did Kala feel connected to her ancestors while sailing? A. She could enjoy her knowledge of nature. B. Her whole family sailed together with her. C. She sailed with their natural technology. D. They had made the canoe and left it for her. 26. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Children are lost in the natural technology. B. Getting close to nature brings us happiness. C. Most children take their time to enjoy nature. D. Wayfinding skills aren’t required anymore today. 27. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this text? A. To tell an inspiring story to us. B. To explain what Wayfinding is. C. To teach us how to sail in a canoe. D. To tell us how to tell the stars at night. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了卡拉•巴伊巴坦•田中利用周围的自然元素，在独木舟上导航海洋，她是最近创下从加利福尼亚到夏威夷最快划船时间纪录的四名女子团队的一员，以及她传承和教授“寻路”技能的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Using the natural elements around her, Kala Baybatan Tanaka navigates the ocean in a canoe (独木舟). She is part of a four-woman team that recently set the record for the fastest rowing time from California to Hawaii.(卡拉•巴伊巴坦•田中利用周围的自然元素，在独木舟上导航海洋。她是最近创下从加利福尼亚到夏威夷最快划船时间纪录的四名女子团队的一员)”可知，卡拉是划独木舟完成她的旅程的。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Wayfinding was taught to her by her father who had learned it from their ancestors. During the day, Kala uses the sun until it hits a certain height. When she gets closer to land, she looks for certain species of land birds and stationary (静止不动的) clouds that indicate there is land below. “I feel very connected to my ancestors when I sail. I feel very connected to the crew and the canoe,” says Kala.(她的父亲教她“寻路”，她的父亲是从他们的祖先那里学到的。在白天，卡拉利用太阳，直到它达到一定的高度。当她离陆地越来越近时，她会寻找某些种类的陆地鸟类和静止不动的云朵，这表明下面有陆地。“当我航行时，我感觉与我的祖先有着很深的联系。我感觉与船员和独木舟有着很深的联系，”卡拉说)”可知，卡拉在航行时感觉与祖先有着联系是因为她使用了他们传下来的自然技术“寻路”来导航。故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But if we take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness.(但如果我们花时间抬头看看，看看星星和太阳，看看云朵的移动方式，看看我们上下周围生命的奇迹，我们就会发现自己内心深处的东西，那些永远会带给我们幸福的东西)”可知，最后一段暗示了接近自然会给我们带来幸福。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，结合第一段中“She is part of a four-woman team that recently set the record for the fastest rowing time from California to Hawaii.(她是最近创下从加利福尼亚到夏威夷最快划船时间纪录的四名女子团队的一员)”、第二段中“Kala has deep ties to her Hawaiian roots. Her ancestors navigated the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars, the sun, the currents and the wind. Today, she does the same.(卡拉与她的夏威夷血统有着深厚的联系。她的祖先几个世纪以来一直利用他们对星星、太阳、洋流和风的知识在海洋上航行。今天，她也做着同样的事情)”和最后一段中“But if we take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness.(但是，如果我们花时间抬起头来，看看星星和太阳，看看云彩移动的方式，看看我们身下和头顶上生命的奇迹，我们就会发现我们内心深处的一些东西，一些永远会带来幸福的东西)”可知，文章整体讲述了卡拉利用自然寻路法进行航行、传承技能以及对自然感悟的这样一个充满激励意义的故事，由此可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是给我们讲述一个鼓舞人心的故事。故选A项。 C Microplastics (塑料微粒) are found everywhere from the top of mountains to the ocean deep — even inside people. Microplastics are tiny. But they pose a big pollution problem. These tiny bits of trash are 5 millimeters or smaller. Some are made that small. For instance, the tiny beads in some toothpastes and face washes are microplastics. But many microplastics are debris (碎片) from larger plastic pieces that have broken down. Microplastics travel far on winds and ocean currents. They’ve ended up everywhere from mountaintops to Arctic ice. Microplastics are so widespread that many animals end up eating them. Plastic bits have turned up in birds, fish, whales, corals and many other creatures. Microplastics are found inside people, too. Americans are thought to consume some 70,000 microplastic pieces each year. People might take in plastic particles floating through the air. Or they may eat fish or other animals that contain microplastics — or drink water polluted with this trash. Microplastics can then pass from the lungs or get into the bloodstream. This pollution may prevent their growth or cause other harms. Researchers do not yet know the health risks of being exposed to (接触) so much microplastic. But they are worried. Why? Plastics are made of many different chemicals. Some of these are known to bring health risks to people. Engineers are coming up with solutions to the microplastic problem. Some are working on new ways to break down plastics in the environment. Others are devising more environmentally friendly materials to use instead of plastic. But to decrease microplastic pollution to the most extent, we should use less plastic. 28. What does the underlined word “pose” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Prevent. B. Allow. C. Cause. D. Destroy. 29. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. Whether microplastics do harm to creatures. B. How microplastics can travel to the ocean. C. Why creatures are harmed by microplastics. D. Where microplastics are most easily found. 30. Why are researchers worried about being exposed to microplastics? A. They can travel deep into ocean. B. They are too small for us to see. C. Their impacts on health are still unknown. D. They bring health risks to people. 31. What is the most effective way to fight microplastic pollution? A. Using less plastic. B. Using less chemicals. C. Breaking down plastic. D. Looking for new materials. 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. D 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了塑料微粒的来源、传播途径及其对动植物和人类健康的危害。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“Microplastics (塑料微粒) are found everywhere from the top of mountains to the ocean deep—even inside people. (微塑料随处可见，从山顶到海洋深处——甚至在人体内)”及“a big pollution problem (大的污染问题)”可知，微塑料造成了巨大的污染。由此猜测“pose”在此处表达“造成”的意思，与C选项含义相近，即微塑料带来了很大的污染问题。故选C。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Microplastics travel far on winds and ocean currents. They’ve ended up everywhere from mountaintops to Arctic ice. (微塑料随着风和洋流飘得很远。从山顶到北极冰面，它们无处不在)”及“This pollution may prevent their growth or cause other harms. (这种污染可能会阻止它们的生长或造成其他危害)”可知，主要描述了微塑料在环境中的传播，导致其被不同生物误食，即为什么生物会受到微塑料的伤害。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“But they are worried. Why? Plastics are made of many different chemicals. Some of these are known to bring health risks to people. (但是他们很担心。为什么？塑料是由许多不同的化学物质制成的。其中一些已知会给人们带来健康风险)”可知，研究人员感到担忧是因为微塑料给人们带来健康风险。故选D。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But to decrease microplastic pollution to the most extent, we should use less plastic. (但是为了最大程度地减少微塑料污染，我们应该少用塑料)”可知，最有效的减少微塑料污染的方法是减少塑料的使用。故选A。 D Scientific studies have shown that kindness has many physical and emotional benefits. A great number of reasons have been reported to support the theory of teaching kindness in schools. Science explains that the good feelings we experience when being kind are produced by endorphins (内啡肽) that make areas of the brain active that are associated with pleasure, social connection and trust. And it’s proven that these feelings of joyfulness can spread from one person to another, encouraging more kind behaviors by both givers and receivers. Studies show that people experience a rush of endorphins that creates a lasting sense of pride, well-being and an enriched sense of belonging when they do a good deed. Even small acts of kindness are reported to promote our sense of well-being, increase energy and give a wonderful feeling of optimism and self-worth. It’s widely recorded in documents that being kind can also cause a release of the hormone oxytocin which has a number of physical and mental health benefits as it can significantly increase a person’s level of happiness and reduce stress. It also plays a significant role in the cardiovascular (心血管的) system, helping protect the heart. As it increases serotonin, which plays an important part in learning, memory, mood, sleep, health and digestion, kindness is a key element that helps children feel good. Having a positive attitude allows them greater attention spans and enables more creative thinking to produce better results at school. Kindness changes the brain by the experience of kindness. Children and adolescents do not learn kindness by only thinking about it and talking about it. Kindness is best learned by feeling it so that they can reproduce it. Kindness is an emotion that students feel and empathy is a strength that they share. 32. What can endorphins bring to people? A. Freedom. B. Curiosity. C. Happiness. D. Confidence. 33. Which of the following is helpful in protecting people’s heart? A. Serotonin. B. Endorphin. C. A sense of pride. D. Hormone oxytocin. 34. What is the best way to learn kindness? A. Sharing it. B. Experiencing it. C. Talking about it. D. Thinking about it. 35. What is the best title for this text? A. Importance of teaching kindness B. Importance of good concentration C. How to improve health and happiness D. The givers and receivers of kindness 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学研究表明善良对身体和情感有许多好处，并阐述了在学校教授善良的重要性。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Science explains that the good feelings we experience when being kind are produced by endorphins (内啡肽) that make areas of the brain active that are associated with pleasure, social connection and trust.(科学解释说，我们在善良时体验到的良好感觉是由内啡肽产生的，内啡肽使大脑中与快乐、社交联系和信任相关的区域活跃起来)”可知，内啡肽能给人带来快乐。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It’s widely recorded in documents that being kind can also cause a release of the hormone oxytocin which has a number of physical and mental health benefits as it can significantly increase a person’s level of happiness and reduce stress. It also plays a significant role in the cardiovascular (心血管的) system, helping protect the heart.(文献中广泛记载，善良还能释放催产素激素，这对身心健康有许多好处，因为它能显著提高一个人的幸福感，减轻压力。它还在心血管系统中发挥着重要作用，有助于保护心脏)”可知，催产素激素有助于保护人们的心脏。故选D项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Kindness is best learned by feeling it so that they can reproduce it.(善良最好是通过感受它来学会，这样他们就能复制它)”可知，学习善良的最好方法是去体验它。故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“Scientific studies have shown that kindness has many physical and emotional benefits. A great number of reasons have been reported to support the theory of teaching kindness in schools.(科学研究表明，善良对身体和情感有许多好处。据报道，有许多理由支持在学校教授善良的理论)”可知，文章指出科学研究表明善良有诸多益处，阐述了善良在身体和情感方面的好处，以及对孩子学习和成长的积极影响，最后强调了在学校教授善良的重要性。整体围绕着教授善良的重要性展开。由此可知，C项“Importance of teaching kindness (教授善良的重要性)”能概括文章主要内容，最适合作文章标题。故选A项。 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。 “I wish I had straight hair”; “I’d like to be taller”. At times, we all want to look a bit more like someone else. However, the pictures we see on TV and social media can give us improper ideas about how our bodies “should” look. The truth is that everybody is different. ___36___ Accepting and feeling good about our bodies is really important for our self-confidence. ___37___ Body confidence is when someone accepts, appreciates and behaves kindly towards their body. That includes our size and shape, skin color, appearance and any physical disabilities. Jade Parnell from the Centre for Appearance Research (CAR), says that having body confidence is “about being accepting of your body and what it does for you”. If you feel positive about your body, you are more likely to take care of it. ___38___ However, feeling worried about your body could make you step back, do less well at school and even feel down. Researchers say, “If you are spending a lot of time trying to look a certain way, you will have less time to spend with friends and to make important memories.” Remember that everybody is different. To develop a positive body image, Parnell suggests trying to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies. ___39___ Instead, think about “What does your body do for you?” “Do your legs make you run really fast?” She also suggests treating your body well by eating different kinds of foods, exercising to feel good and to have fun, and getting plenty of sleep. ___40___ A. And that’s a good thing. B. What is body confidence? C. What should your body look like? D. Try not to pay much attention to appearance. E. Remember that you are more than how you look. F. Research has shown that you are more likely to take part in activities. G. People with body shame are more likely to have disordered eating behavior. 【答案】36. A 37. B 38. F 39. D 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了身体自信对于我们的积极影响。 【36题详解】 上文“The truth is that everybody is different.(事实上每个人都是不同的。)”指出每个人都是不同的，下文“Accepting and feeling good about our bodies is really important for our self-confidence.(接受并对自己的身体感觉良好，这对我们的自信非常重要。)”指出我们要接受自己的身体并对之感觉良好，这对于我们是有好处的，这说明每个人都是不同的，这其实是对我们有好处的，A项“这是一件好事。”符合语境，that代指上文“事实上每个人都是不同的。”这句话，故选A。 【37题详解】 下文“Body confidence is when someone accepts, appreciates and behaves kindly towards their body.(身体自信是指某人接受、欣赏并善待自己的身体。)”介绍了身体自信是什么，即身体自信的定义，空处应该是引起下文，B项“什么是身体自信？”符合，和下文构成一问一答，故选B。 【38题详解】 上文“If you feel positive about your body, you are more likely to take care of it.(如果你对自己的身体感到积极，你就更有可能照顾好它。)”指出对自己的身体感到积极，你就更有可能照顾好它，下文“However, feeling worried about your body could make you step back, do less well at school and even feel down(然而，担心自己的身体可能会让你退缩，在学校表现不佳，甚至情绪低落)”和上文是转折关系，提到对自己的身体感到不积极的后果，由此可知，空处承接上文，与对自己身体感到积极的内容相关，F项“研究表明你更有可能参加活动。”符合，具体指出对自己身体感到积极的好处，故选F。 【39题详解】 上文“To develop a positive body image, Parnell suggests trying to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies(为了形成积极的身体形象，帕内尔建议尝试积极地谈论自己和他人的身体。)”指出为了形成积极的身体形象，我们该如何做，下文“Instead, think about “What does your body do for you?” “Do your legs make you run really fast?”(相反，想想“你的身体为你做了什么？” “你的腿能让你跑得很快吗？”)”中的instead是关键，空处应与下文内容相反，且与维护积极的身体形象内容相关，D项“尽量不要太注重外表。”符合，即为了维护积极的身体形象我们不该做什么，故选D。 【40题详解】 上文“She also suggests treating your body well by eating different kinds of foods, exercising to feel good and to have fun, and getting plenty of sleep.(她还建议通过吃不同种类的食物、锻炼身体以感觉良好和享受乐趣以及保证充足的睡眠来善待自己的身体。)”指出其他的方式来善待自己，即不光只关注外表，E项“请记住，你不仅仅是你的外表。”符合，对上文进行总结，故选E。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 My name’s Nyombi Morris, a Ugandan climate activist and CEO of the non-profit Earth Volunteers.

There were the geeks, the jocks (小丑) , and the popular cool kids. I wasn’t sure where I belonged. And I think that was a problem. Our teacher had assigned “secret friends” for the coming week. The purpose of this assignment was to do nice things for your friend without letting them know who was doing it. We could leave encouraging notes on their desk or mysteriously leave a card in their backpack or book. Our teacher wrote each kid’s name on a piece of paper and threw them into a bucket, then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of the classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days. Everyone was excited to get involved, including Rochelle. By the middle of the week, we had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. Instead of encouraging notes, we left stationary sets on our friend’s desk. Instead of giving compliments, we were giving bubble gum, lollipops and even money. It seemed that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends. Everyone except me, that is. My secret friend followed our teacher’s directions without a fault. I received handmade cards, notes with nice thoughts and countless smiley face pictures saying that I was one of the nicest girls in the class. This friend seemed to think highly of me from the notes that were left, but the lack of gifts kept me wondering what was up with whoever had pulled my name. On the last morning of our assignment, I walked into my classroom and noticed a package on my desk. At last, my secret friend had grasped the idea that a gift was what I really needed. I quickly ripped open the gift paper, only to find a small doll inside. The pink wool-knit doll seemed not new but delicate. But the girls sitting near me giggled and gossiped about the “little girl” gift I had received. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One Possible Version: Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. Embarrassed and ashamed, I secretly complained that the girl gave me so stupid a gift to arouse others’ derision. I even joined other girls in gossiping about my secret friend and the poor doll. When I continued with mean remarks, a girl sitting at the last row arose and came up, casting me an angry and disappointed look. With tears streaming down her face, she admitted, “I’m your secret friend and I’m sorry about the gift.” Then she ran out of the classroom. Frozen with shock, I couldn’t utter a single word. It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. She had saved every penny in her pocket money in order to give me a cool gift. With the limited money, she visited a lot of stores and finally selected the lovely doll from a second-hand store. Actually, she gave me a most valuable gift with her sincere heart. However, I didn’t treasure and hurt her badly in such a cruel way. So ashamed was I that it took me a few days to pluck up my courage to face up to Rochelle and apologize. Much to my delight, she forgave me and later we became best friends. Most importantly, we found where we belonged. 【解析】 【分析】本文以找“秘密朋友”活动为线索展开，讲述了老师为了让同学们找到好朋友，举行了找“秘密朋友”活动。大家都为自己的秘密朋友留下最好的礼物，例如泡泡糖、棒棒糖甚至是钱。而作者收到的确实是手工制作的卡片、便条和笑脸照片，还有一个看起来很不起眼的洋娃娃。作者感到很失望，甚至和其他同学一起取笑这个洋娃娃。这时候，罗谢尔站出来说礼物是她送的，她来自一个贫困家庭，为了送给作者一个礼物，她攒了平时的零花钱。作者顿时感到很羞愧而向罗谢尔道歉，最终罗谢尔原谅了作者，她们成为了最好的朋友。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听到这些，我觉得我的脸变红了。”可知，第一段可描写作者为收到这样的礼物而感到尴尬，因此，和周围同学一起嘲笑这个“洋娃娃”。这时候，送礼物的罗谢尔难过的跑出去，作者才知道，自己的秘密朋友是她。 ②由第二段首句内容“原来我的秘密朋友是罗谢尔，来自一个贫穷的家庭。”可知，第二段可描写罗谢尔虽然很贫困，但是她依然攒钱给自己的秘密朋友买最好的礼物。 2.续写线索：嘲笑礼物——发现秘密朋友罗谢尔——羞愧——道歉——成为好朋友 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.开始：begin/start ②.分开：separate into/split into ③.参与：get involved /join in/ attend 情绪类 ①.兴奋的，积极的：excited / active ②.羞愧：ashamed / compunctious 【点睛】[高分句型1].

It is a place where musicians and music lovers connect with each other through their favorite songs. However, if you are a beginner on SoundCloud, then sharing and uploading music can seem like a complex task. This is why we have put together a step by step guide on how you can upload music to SoundCloud. Supported Formats(格式): The first thing that you need to know is the formats that are supported by SoundCloud. SoundCloud supports the following formats for music: FLAC, AIFF, WAV, OGG, MP2, WMA, MP3, AMR, AAC, and ALAC. Though the list seems limited and short, this is all that SoundCloud supports. If you have music in any other format, you will have to convert (转换) it to the required format before uploading. Things to pay attention to before uploading: .You must have a verified (已验证的)email address associated with your SoundCloud account before you can begin uploading. . The maximum upload size on SoundCloud is5GB (gigabytes) while the maximum length of the audio file can be 6 hours. . There is a time allowance on SoundCloud accounts. A free user can only upload up to 180 minutes of music content in total while a Pro user can upload music of up to 360 minutes. Now that you know the exact requirements of uploading a music file to SoundCloud, let us take a look at how you can upload music to SoundCloud. 21. What can we learn about SoundCloud? A. It creates popular music. B. It supports music in MP1 format. C. It is meant for musicians D. It helps people share music. 22. Which is a must for someone to upload music to SoundCloud? A. Having a verified email address. B. Choosing a music file of 3 hours. C. Converting music to WAV format. D. Providing a song in the size of 5 GB. 23. What is the text probably taken from? A. A report. B. Instructions. C. Reviews. D. An advertisement. B Using the natural elements around her, Kala Baybatan Tanaka navigates the ocean in a canoe (独木舟). She is part of a four-woman team that recently set the record for the fastest rowing time from California to Hawaii. Kala has deep ties to her Hawaiian roots. Her ancestors navigated the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars, the sun, the currents and the wind. Today, she does the same. It’s not that she navigates without technology. Rather, she uses the natural technology around her. It’s called Wayfinding. Wayfinding was taught to her by her father who had learned it from their ancestors. During the day, Kala uses the sun until it hits a certain height. When she gets closer to land, she looks for certain species of land birds and stationary (静止不动的) clouds that indicate there is land below. “I feel very connected to my ancestors when I sail. I feel very connected to the crew and the canoe,” says Kala. The voyage (航行) from California to Hawaii required Kala to spend long hours studying the day and the night skies. It was demanding, physical work. It also had its moments of feeling awful. For Kala, the beauty is in tying together the past and the present to enjoy the moment. Now when she is not sailing, she teaches Wayfinding skills to school-aged children in hopes of passing on the skills her ancestors relied on. Today, it’s easy for children to get lost in the immediacy (直观性) of the technology of our day, to be consumed by screens and miss the nature that unfolds around us. But if we take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness. 24. How did Kala complete her voyage? A. By rowing a canoe. B. With friends’ help. C. With the help of a guide. D. By turning to her father. 25. Why did Kala feel connected to her ancestors while sailing? A. She could enjoy her knowledge of nature. B. Her whole family sailed together with her. C. She sailed with their natural technology. D They had made the canoe and left it for her. 26. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Children are lost in the natural technology. B. Getting close to nature brings us happiness. C. Most children take their time to enjoy nature. D. Wayfinding skills aren’t required anymore today. 27. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this text? A. To tell an inspiring story to us. B. To explain what Wayfinding is. C. To teach us how to sail in a canoe. D. To tell us how to tell the stars at night. C Microplastics (塑料微粒) are found everywhere from the top of mountains to the ocean deep — even inside people. Microplastics are tiny. But they pose a big pollution problem. These tiny bits of trash are 5 millimeters or smaller. Some are made that small. For instance, the tiny beads in some toothpastes and face washes are microplastics. But many microplastics are debris (碎片) from larger plastic pieces that have broken down. Microplastics travel far on winds and ocean currents. They’ve ended up everywhere from mountaintops to Arctic ice. Microplastics are so widespread that many animals end up eating them. Plastic bits have turned up in birds, fish, whales, corals and many other creatures. Microplastics are found inside people, too. Americans are thought to consume some 70,000 microplastic pieces each year. People might take in plastic particles floating through the air. Or they may eat fish or other animals that contain microplastics — or drink water polluted with this trash. Microplastics can then pass from the lungs or get into the bloodstream. This pollution may prevent their growth or cause other harms. Researchers do not yet know the health risks of being exposed to (接触) so much microplastic. But they are worried. Why? Plastics are made of many different chemicals. Some of these are known to bring health risks to people. Engineers are coming up with solutions to the microplastic problem. Some are working on new ways to break down plastics in the environment. Others are devising more environmentally friendly materials to use instead of plastic. But to decrease microplastic pollution to the most extent, we should use less plastic. 28. What does the underlined word “pose” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Prevent. B. Allow. C. Cause. D. Destroy. 29. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. Whether microplastics do harm to creatures. B. How microplastics can travel to the ocean. C. Why creatures are harmed by microplastics. D. Where microplastics are most easily found. 30. Why are researchers worried about being exposed to microplastics? A. They can travel deep into ocean. B. They are too small for us to see. C. Their impacts on health are still unknown. D. They bring health risks to people. 31. What is the most effective way to fight microplastic pollution? A. Using less plastic. B. Using less chemicals. C. Breaking down plastic. D. Looking for new materials. D Scientific studies have shown that kindness has many physical and emotional benefits. A great number of reasons have been reported to support the theory of teaching kindness in schools. Science explains that the good feelings we experience when being kind are produced by endorphins (内啡肽) that make areas of the brain active that are associated with pleasure, social connection and trust. And it’s proven that these feelings of joyfulness can spread from one person to another, encouraging more kind behaviors by both givers and receivers. Studies show that people experience a rush of endorphins that creates a lasting sense of pride, well-being and an enriched sense of belonging when they do a good deed. Even small acts of kindness are reported to promote our sense of well-being, increase energy and give a wonderful feeling of optimism and self-worth. It’s widely recorded in documents that being kind can also cause a release of the hormone oxytocin which has a number of physical and mental health benefits as it can significantly increase a person’s level of happiness and reduce stress. It also plays a significant role in the cardiovascular (心血管的) system, helping protect the heart. As it increases serotonin, which plays an important part in learning, memory, mood, sleep, health and digestion, kindness is a key element that helps children feel good. Having a positive attitude allows them greater attention spans and enables more creative thinking to produce better results at school. Kindness changes the brain by the experience of kindness. Children and adolescents do not learn kindness by only thinking about it and talking about it. Kindness is best learned by feeling it so that they can reproduce it. Kindness is an emotion that students feel and empathy is a strength that they share. 32. What can endorphins bring to people? A. Freedom. B. Curiosity. C. Happiness. D. Confidence. 33. Which of the following is helpful in protecting people’s heart? A. Serotonin. B. Endorphin. C. A sense of pride. D. Hormone oxytocin. 34. What is the best way to learn kindness? A. Sharing it. B. Experiencing it. C. Talking about it. D. Thinking about it. 35. What is the best title for this text? A. Importance of teaching kindness B. Importance of good concentration C. How to improve health and happiness D. The givers and receivers of kindness 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。 “I wish I had straight hair”; “I’d like to be taller”. At times, we all want to look a bit more like someone else. However, the pictures we see on TV and social media can give us improper ideas about how our bodies “should” look. The truth is that everybody is different. ___36___ Accepting and feeling good about our bodies is really important for our self-confidence. ___37___ Body confidence is when someone accepts, appreciates and behaves kindly towards their body. That includes our size and shape, skin color, appearance and any physical disabilities. Jade Parnell from the Centre for Appearance Research (CAR), says that having body confidence is “about being accepting of your body and what it does for you”. If you feel positive about your body, you are more likely to take care of it. ___38___ However, feeling worried about your body could make you step back, do less well at school and even feel down. Researchers say, “If you are spending a lot of time trying to look a certain way, you will have less time to spend with friends and to make important memories.” Remember that everybody is different. To develop a positive body image, Parnell suggests trying to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies. ___39___ Instead, think about “What does your body do for you?” “Do your legs make you run really fast?” She also suggests treating your body well by eating different kinds of foods, exercising to feel good and to have fun, and getting plenty of sleep. ___40___ A. And that’s a good thing. B. What is body confidence? C. What should your body look like? D. Try not to pay much attention to appearance. E. Remember that you are more than how you look. F. Research has shown that you are more likely to take part in activities. G.

There were the geeks, the jocks (小丑) , and the popular cool kids. I wasn’t sure where I belonged. And I think that was a problem. Our teacher had assigned “secret friends” for the coming week. The purpose of this assignment was to do nice things for your friend without letting them know who was doing it. We could leave encouraging notes on their desk or mysteriously leave a card in their backpack or book. Our teacher wrote each kid’s name on a piece of paper and threw them into a bucket, then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of the classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days. Everyone was excited to get involved, including Rochelle. By the middle of the week, we had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. Instead of encouraging notes, we left stationary sets on our friend’s desk. Instead of giving compliments, we were giving bubble gum, lollipops and even money. It seemed that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends. Everyone except me, that is. My secret friend followed our teacher’s directions without a fault. I received handmade cards, notes with nice thoughts and countless smiley face pictures saying that I was one of the nicest girls in the class. This friend seemed to think highly of me from the notes that were left, but the lack of gifts kept me wondering what was up with whoever had pulled my name. On the last morning of our assignment, I walked into my classroom and noticed a package on my desk. At last, my secret friend had grasped the idea that a gift was what I really needed. I quickly ripped open the gift paper, only to find a small doll inside. The pink wool-knit doll seemed not new but delicate. But the girls sitting near me giggled and gossiped about the “little girl” gift I had received. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
