Miguel Angel Gallo, born in Barcelona in 1933, has always had a passion for art. However, with limited financial resources and 13 children to feed and educate, becoming an artist was not a practical option for him at the time. And about 10 years ago, Gallo’s wife was diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s disease, and her condition worsened to the point that she had to move into a care home. This challenging period marked the beginning of Gallo’s artistic journey, when he was already 83 years old.
Gallo initially studied mechanical engineering in Barcelona and later worked for a company in Zaragoza. In 1966, he pursued management studies at IESE Business School in Barcelona, and by 1968, he had become an associate professor there.
With his academic background, Gallo was determined to study at a respected institution. However, when he applied to study art in Barcelona, he was encouraged to pursue art history instead. He was firm, replying, “No, I want to paint.” The course was initially set for four years, but due to the need to balance it with his family commitments, it took Gallo seven years to complete it. He graduated at the age of 90.
Gallo admires Francisco de Zurbarán for his masterful use of white, and Joaquín Sorolla for his skillful use of light. Reflecting on his artistic journey, he noted, “Studying art has strengthened my belief that the truly great things in life are goodness, truth, and beauty. I don’t mind making money, but increasingly, those other things matter most to me.”
Some of Gallo’s works were featured in an exhibition in Graus, a small village in the Pyrenees, where they were displayed for six months. Gallo humbly acknowledged, “After completing my degree, would I call myself an artist? I don’t know, but at least now I have a piece of paper that says I am.”
24. What can be learnt about Gallo from paragraphs 1 and 2?
A. He prioritized his family over his interest. B. He became a professor in his 20s.
C. He had a natural talent for doing business. D. He lived with poor health for long.
25. What happened to Gallo when he applied to study art in Barcelona?
A. He was required to study longer. B. He was not advised to paint.
C. He was introduced to other institutes. D. He was not allowed to get a degree.
26. How has studying art affected Gallo?
A. He has reflected on his health condition. B. He has become much humbler.
C. He has reinterpreted the meaning of wealth. D. He has developed true friendships.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. Miguel Ángel Gallo: An Art Genius. B. Miguel Ángel Gallo: A Late Start to Art.
C. An Art Exhibition of Miguel Ángel Gallo. D. Artistic Principles Set by Miguel Ángel Gallo.

The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use.
Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school. ”
“I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they’ve gone to bed.”
“It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide.
Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”
Lynn Lewis director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.”
28. What is the purpose of the project?
A. To ensure harmony in care homes. B. To provide part-time jobs for the aged.
C. To raise money for medical research. D. To promote the elderly people’s welfare.
29. How has the project affected Ruth Xavier?
A. She has learned new life skills. B. She has gained a sense of achievement.
C. She has recovered her memory. D. She has developed a strong personality.
30. What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in paragraph 7?
A. Improve. B. Oppose. C. Begin. D. Evaluate.
31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs?
A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative.
C. It is highly profitable. D. It takes ages to see the results.

Along with the progress of reform and opening up, the Chinese film industry has also made remarkable achievements and become in a flourishing(繁荣的) state in economic growth. It has recorded social changes in the past decades through the medium of the film. The film market of China has been much better than that of North America, becoming the largest in the world during the first season of 2019.
In the original stage of reform and opening up, old Chinese movies were rescreened and foreign movies dubbed(译制). Audiences’ enthusiasm for movies was lighted up by both these practices. In 1979, the attendance of Chinese moviegoers reached a record high of 29.3 billion. However, televisions and other entertainment activities sprang up in the late 1980s and drew many audiences away from movies when the film market faced a danger.
The employment of a socialist market economy in China in 1992 brought energy again to the film industry. With the introduction of free competition and reforms, it made an abundant recovery and experienced rapid growth. In the same period, China began to introduce overseas movies into the home market, especially those from Hollywood. Despite the argument that foreign movies occupy the space of home-made ones, Chinese movies with increasingly higher quality have gained a firm foothold in the local market with box offices setting several new records.
The development of the Internet has added new energy to the Chinese film industry. In 2015, the powerful Internet companies, one called Tencent and another Alibaba, developed their own film arm and began to adapt popular online stories for movies. With big data, more accurate marketing skills can target specific audiences to satisfy their personal preferences. Yet the development of online cinemas may pose threats to the survival of offline ones. Now the film industry is exploring more advanced film screening technologies to provide audiences with an improved movie experience.
32. Which threat did the Chinese film market face in the late 1980s?
A. Popularity of televisions.
B. Development of online cinemas.
C. A slowdown in economic growth.
D. Introduction of overseas movies.
33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The space of Chinese movies.
B. The Chinese film industry.
C. The socialist market economy.
D. The introduction of reform and opening up.
34. What does the author indicate in the end?
A. Online cinemas will replace traditional ones sooner.
B. The film screening technology is the key to films’ success.
C. The Internet is a two-edged sword for the film industry.
D. Movies made by Tencent and Alibaba are most successful.
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. The Ever-changing Film Market
B. Popular Online Films
C. Advanced Film Technologies
D. Flourishing Chinese Film Industry

Worse sill, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.

Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate silently. Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two looked so down. What happened?”Exchanging glances with Peter, Maria replied in a low voice,“It’s those annoying plastic bags. We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.”Understanding the pair’s disappointment, their father patted them on the back and comforted,”Well, it’s really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.”“Just two of us.”complained Maria and Peter, looking at each other.Suddenly, an idea lashed through their minds, their eyes shining with excitement.“Yes,that’s the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.

Miguel Angel Gallo, born in Barcelona in 1933, has always had a passion for art. However, with limited financial resources and 13 children to feed and educate, becoming an artist was not a practical option for him at the time. And about 10 years ago, Gallo’s wife was diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s disease, and her condition worsened to the point that she had to move into a care home. This challenging period marked the beginning of Gallo’s artistic journey, when he was already 83 years old.
Gallo initially studied mechanical engineering in Barcelona and later worked for a company in Zaragoza. In 1966, he pursued management studies at IESE Business School in Barcelona, and by 1968, he had become an associate professor there.
With his academic background, Gallo was determined to study at a respected institution. However, when he applied to study art in Barcelona, he was encouraged to pursue art history instead. He was firm, replying, “No, I want to paint.” The course was initially set for four years, but due to the need to balance it with his family commitments, it took Gallo seven years to complete it. He graduated at the age of 90.
Gallo admires Francisco de Zurbarán for his masterful use of white, and Joaquín Sorolla for his skillful use of light. Reflecting on his artistic journey, he noted, “Studying art has strengthened my belief that the truly great things in life are goodness, truth, and beauty. I don’t mind making money, but increasingly, those other things matter most to me.”
Some of Gallo’s works were featured in an exhibition in Graus, a small village in the Pyrenees, where they were displayed for six months. Gallo humbly acknowledged, “After completing my degree, would I call myself an artist? I don’t know, but at least now I have a piece of paper that says I am.”
24. What can be learnt about Gallo from paragraphs 1 and 2?
A. He prioritized his family over his interest. B. He became a professor in his 20s.
C. He had a natural talent for doing business. D. He lived with poor health for long.
25 What happened to Gallo when he applied to study art in Barcelona?
A. He was required to study longer. B. He was not advised to paint.
C. He was introduced to other institutes. D. He was not allowed to get a degree.
26. How has studying art affected Gallo?
A. He has reflected on his health condition. B. He has become much humbler.
C. He has reinterpreted the meaning of wealth. D. He has developed true friendships.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. Miguel Ángel Gallo: An Art Genius. B. Miguel Ángel Gallo: A Late Start to Art.
C. An Art Exhibition of Miguel Ángel Gallo. D. Artistic Principles Set by Miguel Ángel Gallo.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了米格尔·安赫尔·加洛于1933年出生于巴塞罗那,一直对艺术充满热情。然而,由于财力有限,有13个孩子要养活和教育,当时成为艺术家对他来说不是一个实际的选择。大约10年前,加洛的妻子被诊断出患有阿尔茨海默病,她的病情恶化到不得不搬进护理院的地步。这段充满挑战的时期标志着加洛艺术之旅的开始,当时他已经83岁了。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, with limited financial resources and 13 children to feed and educate, becoming an artist was not a practical option for him at the time. (然而,由于经济资源有限,13个孩子要养活和教育,成为一名艺术家对他来说并不是一个现实的选择。)”可知,由于经济资源有限且要养育和教育13个孩子,成为艺术家对他来说不是一个现实的选择,说明他把家庭放在了兴趣之前。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, when he applied to study art in Barcelona, he was encouraged to pursue art history instead. He was firm, replying, “No, I want to paint.” (然而,当他申请在巴塞罗那学习艺术时,他被鼓励去学习艺术史。他很坚定地回答:“不,我想画画。”)”可知,当他申请在巴塞罗那学习艺术时,别人鼓励他学习艺术史而不是绘画,即他不被建议画画。故选B项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Reflecting on his artistic journey, he noted, “Studying art has strengthened my belief that the truly great things in life are goodness, truth, and beauty. I don’t mind making money, but increasingly, those other things matter most to me.” (回顾自己的艺术之旅,他说:“学习艺术让我更加坚信,生命中真正伟大的东西是真、善、美。我不介意赚钱,但其他事情对我来说越来越重要。”)”可知,学习艺术让他更加坚信生活中真正伟大的东西是善良、真理和美丽,他不介意赚钱,但越来越觉得这些其他的东西对他来说才是最重要的,说明他重新诠释了财富的意义,不再只看重金钱。故选C项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段中“This challenging period marked the beginning of Gallo’s artistic journey, when he was already 83 years old. (这段充满挑战的时期标志着加洛艺术之旅的开始,当时他已经83岁了。)”和第三段中“The course was initially set for four years, but due to the need to balance it with his family commitments, it took Gall o seven years to complete it. He graduated at the age of 90. (课程最初设定为四年,但由于需要平衡他的家庭责任,他花了7年时间才完成。他90岁毕业。)”可知,文章主要讲述了米格尔·安赫尔·加洛虽然一直热爱艺术,但由于家庭原因直到 83 岁才开始他的艺术之旅,经过努力在 90 岁时完成艺术课程毕业,所以“Miguel Ángel Gallo: A Late Start to Art”(米格尔·安赫尔·加洛:一个晚开始的艺术学习者)作为标题最合适。故选B项。
C
The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use.
Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school. ”
“I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they’ve gone to bed.”
“It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide.
Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”
Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.”
28. What is the purpose of the project?
A. To ensure harmony in care homes. B. To provide part-time jobs for the aged.
C. To raise money for medical research. D. To promote the elderly people’s welfare.
29. How has the project affected Ruth Xavier?
A. She has learned new life skills. B. She has gained a sense of achievement.
C. She has recovered her memory. D. She has developed a strong personality.
30. What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in paragraph 7?
A. Improve. B. Oppose. C. Begin. D. Evaluate.
31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs?
A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative.
C. It is highly profitable. D. It takes ages to see the results.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了旨在减少孤独,改善老年人的健康状况的项目。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing (该项目由当地一家慈善机构构想,旨在减少孤独,改善老年人的健康状况。)”可知,这个项目的目的是为了减少孤独和提高老年人的幸福感。故选D项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段““It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.” (有不同的关注点很好。人们把自己的孩子带进来看母鸡,居民们也来外面坐着看它们。我喜欢创造性的活动,做一些有用的事情的感觉很好。)”可知,Ruth Xavier很享受做这些事,她觉得自己在做有用的事,这能够给她来良好的感觉,因此可知通过该项目她获得了一种成就感。故选B项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.” (彭福街60号的额外护理经理Wendy Wilson是第一批参与该项目的人之一,她说:“居民们非常欢迎该项目的想法和创意会议。我们期待这个项目能给这里的人们带来好处和乐趣。”)”可知,Wendy Wilson是着手这项工程的人之一,也是做这个项目的创始人之一,因此可知,画线处embark on意为“开始着手做某事”,与C项“Begin (开始)”含义相近。故选C项。
【31题详解】

Along with the progress of reform and opening up, the Chinese film industry has also made remarkable achievements and become in a flourishing(繁荣的) state in economic growth. It has recorded social changes in the past decades through the medium of the film. The film market of China has been much better than that of North America, becoming the largest in the world during the first season of 2019.
In the original stage of reform and opening up, old Chinese movies were rescreened and foreign movies dubbed(译制). Audiences’ enthusiasm for movies was lighted up by both these practices. In 1979, the attendance of Chinese moviegoers reached a record high of 29.3 billion. However, televisions and other entertainment activities sprang up in the late 1980s and drew many audiences away from movies when the film market faced a danger.
The employment of a socialist market economy in China in 1992 brought energy again to the film industry. With the introduction of free competition and reforms, it made an abundant recovery and experienced rapid growth. In the same period, China began to introduce overseas movies into the home market, especially those from Hollywood. Despite the argument that foreign movies occupy the space of home-made ones, Chinese movies with increasingly higher quality have gained a firm foothold in the local market with box offices setting several new records.
The development of the Internet has added new energy to the Chinese film industry. In 2015, the powerful Internet companies, one called Tencent and another Alibaba, developed their own film arm and began to adapt popular online stories for movies. With big data, more accurate marketing skills can target specific audiences to satisfy their personal preferences. Yet the development of online cinemas may pose threats to the survival of offline ones. Now the film industry is exploring more advanced film screening technologies to provide audiences with an improved movie experience.
32. Which threat did the Chinese film market face in the late 1980s?
A. Popularity of televisions.
B. Development of online cinemas.
C. A slowdown in economic growth.
D. Introduction of overseas movies.
33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The space of Chinese movies.
B. The Chinese film industry.
C. The socialist market economy.
D. The introduction of reform and opening up.
34. What does the author indicate in the end?
A. Online cinemas will replace traditional ones sooner.
B. The film screening technology is the key to films’ success.
C. The Internet is a two-edged sword for the film industry.
D. Movies made by Tencent and Alibaba are most successful.
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. The Ever-changing Film Market
B. Popular Online Films
C Advanced Film Technologies
D. Flourishing Chinese Film Industry
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着改革开放的发展,中国电影业取得了显著的成就,成为经济增长形势下的一道繁荣景象。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“However, televisions and other entertainment activities sprang up in the late 1980s and drew many audiences away from movies when the film market faced a danger(然而,电视和其他娱乐活动在20世纪80年代末兴起,当电影市场面临危险时,吸引了许多观众离开电影。)”可知,中国电影业在20世纪80年代末期因电视和其他娱乐活动的突然兴起而面临威胁,故选A。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。由画线词上文中的“The employment of a socialist market economy in China in 1992 brought energy again to the film industry(1992年,中国实行社会主义市场经济,为电影业带来了新的活力。)”和划线单词所在句子“With the introduction of free competition and reforms, it made an abundant recovery and experienced rapid growth. (随着自由竞争和改革的引入,它实现了大幅度的复苏,并取得了较快的发展。)”可知,中国实行社会主义市场经济,为电影业带来了新的活力,所以电影行业实现了大幅度的复苏,并取得了较快的发展,由此可推知,it指代“the Chinese film industry(中国电影业)”,故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。综合分析最后一段中的“The development of the Internet has added new energy to the Chinese film industry(互联网的发展为中国电影业注入了新的活力。)”和“Yet the development of online cinemas may pose threats to the survival of offline ones(然而,在线电影院的发展可能会对线下电影院的生存构成威胁。)”可知,互联网的发展对电影产业的发展有利有弊,故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章的首句“Along with the progress of reform and opening up, the Chinese film industry has also made remarkable achievements and become in a flourishing(繁荣的) state in economic growth.(随着改革开放的不断深入,中国电影业也取得了显著成就,经济发展呈现出蓬勃发展的态势。)”及全文的叙述可概括文章主要讲了中国电影业的繁荣发展,故选项D“蓬勃发展的中国电影业”最适合作文章的标题。故选D。

Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city. The greatest pleasure in summer for them was to swim at their local beach after school. But one day they started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters. More often than not, they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach. Worse sill, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.
They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.One weekend,Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean it up. Sweat streamed down from their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags. To their disappointment, after a day’s hard work, there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water. Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate silently. Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two looked so down. What happened?”Exchanging glances with Peter, Maria replied in a low voice,“It’s those annoying plastic bags. We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.”Understanding the pair’s disappointment, their father patted them on the back and comforted,”Well, it’s really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.”“Just two of us.”complained Maria and Peter, looking at each other.Suddenly, an idea lashed through their minds, their eyes shining with excitement.“Yes,that’s the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.

【答案】Quickly finishing their dinner, the pair went upstairs and started planning. Maria and Peter decided to take advantage of the Internet. “Maybe we can write an article to arouse people's awareness.” Maria proposed. “Good idea! We can also make a video!" Peter added. The next few hours witnessed their heated discussion and growing confidence in a clean and beautiful coast. The next day, they went to the beach and filmed a short video showing plastic bags lying on the beach and floating in the sea. Peter, who was good at writing, wrote an article talking about the present situation of the beach and asking people to take part in the clean-up.
Excited and nervous, they posted the video and article on WeChat. To their amazement, their post went viral online immediately. Countless comments flooded in saying how heartbroken they were when looking at the polluted beach and ocean. What amazed Maria and Peter more was that numerous people in their community, encouraged by their efforts, offered to join in their clean-up. More and more people came to the beach to collect plastic bags and they also appealed to others to avoid throwing or using plastic bags. A year later, with their joint and continuous effort, the coast regained its beauty and Maria and Peter regained their long-awaited pleasure.
