In the 1920s, wheat farmers on the Great Plains(大平原) were making a lot of money. This made many other people want to be farmers, too. But no one tried to stop the farmers from plowing almost all the land and cutting down most of the trees.
Still, everything was fine until 1931. This was the beginning of a terrible drought—a long period without rain. The beautiful wheat fields dried up, and the crops died. Then there were no plants to keep the soil in place. All that was left was bare, ugly, dry dirt.
Then the wind started to blow. With no trees to prevent it, the wind gathered up the soil into huge black clouds that travelled for miles. These clouds were called dust storms, and it was impossible for people to get away from them. Dirt is collected in people’s houses. It fell into their food. It got into their noses, mouths, and eyes. People wore masks, but the dust still clogged their lungs, causing many people to get sick. The dust even fell very high in a few places. Everything was buried in the dust, and farm animals died without food. The serious storms punished everyone and everything. The Great Plains became known as the Dust Bowl.
This was the worst natural disaster ever to hit the United States. But some people believed the farmers deserved what happened to them because they did not care for the soil. They said the disaster could be prevented if the farmers were wiser and more careful.
Mini-dictionary:
1. plow /plaʊ/v. 耕 2. bare /beə (r)/adj. 荒 芜 的
3. clog/klɒg/v. 堵塞 4. lung /lʌŋ/n. 肺
5. bury/'beri/v. 掩埋 6. deserve /di'zə:v/v. 应得
34.Where may this article come from?
A.A news report. B.A tour guide.
C.An environmental report. D.A biology magazine.
35.How was a dust storm formed on the Great Plains?
a. Crops died and there was no plant to keep the soil.
b. A terrible drought happened and fields dried up.
c. Most of the trees on the plains were cut down.
d. Wind blew and gathered up the soil into black clouds.
A.b-c-a-d B.b-a-c-d C.c-b-a-d D.c-a-b-d
36.Which of the following isn’t the result of the dust storm?

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。20世纪30年代美国大平原遭遇严重干旱,因过度耕作和砍伐树木导致土壤流失,造成沙尘暴,这是美国史上最严重的自然灾害。
34.推理判断题。文章主要讲述了美国大平原地区的人们因过度耕作和砍伐导致土壤流失,进而形成沙尘暴的环境问题。因此,这篇文章很可能来自一份环境报告,而非新闻报道、旅游指南或生物学杂志。故选C。
35.细节理解题。根据第一段最后的“and cutting down most of the trees”可知,大平原上的大部分树木被砍伐(c);根据第二段第二句中的“This was the beginning of a terrible drought”以及第三句中的“The beautiful wheat fields dried up”可知,发生了可怕的干旱,而且田地干涸了(b);根据第二段第三句的后半句“and the crops died”以及第四句“Then there were no plants to keep the soil in place.”可知,接着庄稼死亡,没有植物可以固定土壤(a);根据第三段中的“Then the wind started to blow.”以及“the wind gathered up the soil into huge black clouds”可知,风吹起土壤,聚集成巨大的黑云(d)。因此,尘暴形成的顺序是c-b-a-d。故选C。
36.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“causing many people to get sick”“and farm animals died without food”以及“The Great Plains became known as the Dust Bowl.”可知,在文章中提到,沙尘暴使得人们生病(A项),动物因为没有食物而死亡(C项),大平原变成了尘暴区(D项),但并未提到田地受到污染。故选B。
37.观点态度题。文章中提到“This was the worst natural disaster ever to hit the United States”,这句话是对尘暴事件的评价和看法,因此A选项“这是最严重的自然灾害”是文章中的一个观点。B、C、D三个选项都是对尘暴现象的描述,而非观点。故选A。
C
At first, I could hardly see anything. After moving down through dark, narrow caves, my eyes were not used to the light. But when I could focus again, I stood in surprise.
“It’s a ... seal” cried.
“Yes. Axel,” my uncle said, “and I shall give it my name, as I discovered it!”
There was a great lake or even an ocean. The shore was covered with small shells where the first living beings lived. Around this sea stood a huge rock wall.
I could see far over this great sea because of a strange light. Not sunlight, of course, as we were deep below the surface. No; with its bright, clear whiteness, the light must have been electric (电的).
We kept quiet inside a cave that must have been several miles high.
Human words cannot describe the discoveries of those who have been deep into the earth. My imagination was powerless before such wonders. I felt surprised and quite scared at the same time. However, the soft salty air cheered me up. After many days in much narrower spaces, it was a great relief.
“Ready to walk a little now?” asked my uncle.
“Yes, certainly.”
“Well, let us follow the shore then,” he said, and we began to explore.
Soon in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. “Mushrooms !” said my uncle. And he was right! There were mushrooms in their thousands, and each at least nine meters high. How excellent they were!
“Wonderful!” cried my uncle. “Now look under your feet.”
I hadn’t noticed the many bones under our feet as we walked. Suddenly I thought, if once these monsters lived here, might some still walk through these dark forests? I looked around nervously, but we were the only living beings in this underworld. Thankfully!
Finally, we returned to the cave we had entered from, and I went to sleep with strange thoughts. Where did this underground sea end? Where would we go?
(Adapted from Journey to the Center of the Earth)

38.推理判断题。根据“Soon in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. ‘Mushrooms!’ said my uncle.”可知,文中提到出现了像伞一样的树(蘑菇),A选项图片是蘑菇,符合文意。故选A。
39.推理判断题。文中划线句“Soon in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas.”使用了“like”作类比。C选项“The girl was as brave as a lion when facing problems.”使用了“as...as”结构进行类比描述。故选C。
40.细节理解题。根据“Axel’s uncle discovered a great sea.”可知Axel 的叔叔发现了一片海,根据“Axel guessed that the light was electric.”可知Axel 猜测那盏灯是电的;根据“Axel and his uncle saw many mushrooms.”可知Axel 和他叔叔看到了很多蘑菇;根据“Axel and his uncle walked on the bones.”可知Axel 和他叔叔走在骨头上;根据“Axel slept with strange thoughts.”可知Axel 带着奇怪的想法睡着了。所以正确顺序是④③①⑤② 。故选B。
41.推理判断题。根据文中描述,先是看不清东西,进入洞穴后看到奇异的光、巨大的海、像伞一样的蘑菇树、地下的骨头等诸多意外景象,可知因为旅程充满了意外。故选D。

Nowadays, many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (直播) shows becomes part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture finds a bigger stage online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream. Some of them sing Beijing Opera, some make paper cutting, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming.
Li Jun is a Beijing Opera performer from the Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. The 59-year-old took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a real stage, Li uses many places as his stage, including his office and study room. Except singing, Li also teaches people about Beijing Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers.
“Livestreaming brings this traditional art down to earth.” One Internet user said, “it gives young people an easier way to learn more about the traditional art.” Li has more than 6000 fans online, while one of his videos got 42000 views on a video platform.
On March 26th, 2020, a video platform live streamed a huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers showed clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming Dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up.

根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。
46.What great difficulty Mr Chen had (翻译) this book into Chinese!
【答案】translating
【详解】句意:陈先生把这本书翻译成中文是多么困难啊!translate“翻译”,动词,have difficulty doing sth.“做某事有困难”,动名词作宾语。故填translating。
47.I am feeling even (自豪) of my motherland after overcoming the difficulty of virus.
【答案】prouder
【详解】句意:在克服了病毒的困难之后,我更为我的祖国感到骄傲。根据“feel”一词可知,此空需要一个形容词;根据“even”可知,此空需要形容词的比较级;结合中文提示,prouder符合句意。故填prouder。
48.Shared bikes can help us travel around freely in cities without (污染)the air.
【答案】polluting
【详解】句意:共享单车可以帮助我们在城市中自由出行,而不污染空气。“污染”pollute,根据“without doing sth”可知,需要动名词作宾语,故填polluting。
49.In August 2016, it started an interesting (工程)—Ant Forest.
【答案】project
【详解】句意:2016年8月,它启动了一个有趣的项目——蚂蚁森林。an后加可数名词单数project“工程”。故填project。
50.After nearly a year of (讨论), a decision was finally made.
【答案】discussion
【详解】句意:经过近一年的讨论,终于做出了决定。根据句中空格前的介词of,其后面的空白处应该使用名词形式,discussion讨论,这里是不可数名词。故填discussion。
51.Many Chinese students who have learnt English for years are still (able) to speak English when they meet a foreigner.
【答案】unable
【详解】句意:许多学了多年英语的中国学生在遇到外国人时仍然不会说英语。根据“still”及“to speak English when they meet a foreigner”可知,学了这么多年英语仍然不会说英语,unable“不能的”,形容词作表语,故填unable。
52.The woman felt down as she was (polite) refused by a rude man.
【答案】impolitely
【详解】句意:一个粗鲁的男人不礼貌地拒绝了这位女士,她感到很沮丧。polite“有礼貌的”,形容词。根据“refused by a rude man”可知,此处指被一个粗鲁的男人不礼貌地拒绝,故用副词impolitely“不礼貌地”修饰动词refuse。故填impolitely。
53.Speed reading courses (support) by real science at present.
【答案】are supported
【详解】句意:目前,快速阅读课程是有真实科学支撑的。support“支持”,动词原型,根据“Speed reading courses...(support) by real science at present.”可知,快速阅读课程是support的承受者,这里要用动词的被动语态,再加上speed reading courses是复数和at present可知时态为一般现在时,所以要用are done,support的过去分词是supported。故填are supported。
54.Sorry, you can’t go inside until your ID card (show) to us.
【答案】is shown
【详解】句意:对不起,在出示身份证之前,您不能进去。until引导的条件状语从句中的主语your ID card与谓语show之间是被动关系,根据语境可知,此处是一般现在时的被动语态be done,主语是第三人称单数,be动词用is。故填is shown。
55.We should never throw letter away (care), as well as not shout in public.
【答案】carelessly
【详解】句意:我们不应该随意扔掉信件,也不应该在公共场合大喊大叫。care关心、照料,是名词和动词;carelessly粗心地、随意地,是副词。根据句意和语法可知,要用副词“随意地”修饰动词throw,作状语。故填carelessly。
五、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
Tanzania (坦桑尼亚) is a country with a lot of animals, such as lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes and so on. Every year, many people in the world travel to this African country to watch the animals closely. But do you know how they travel?
By bus—This is the most common way. But the bus is different from the ones we often see. There are no big windows at all, but some small windows. And it looks like a cage. People can use it to watch animals, especially those dangerous animals, and take photos. We know that people are more interested in the lions than the other animals. So when two buses meet, the drivers will stop and ask each other whether they have found lions.
By boat—We can often see many people are in a boat, enjoying the beautiful scene along a river of a lake, and they can also enjoy hippos (河马) and crocodiles (鳄鱼) from a nearer distance (距离).
By hot balloon (热气球)—Taking a hot balloon excites most of the travelers. After some time, the balloon will land in a certain place, and the waiters will serve people a delicious and special breakfast. But the cost of taking a hot balloon is also very high. A person should pay 400 dollars for an hour’s trip.
根据语篇内容,回答问题。(1—4每个题目的答案不超过5个词,5题不超过15词)
56.Is Tanzania a country or a town?
57.How many ways of traveling are mentioned (被提及) in the passage?
58.What animals are people the most interested in?
59.What makes most of the travelers excited?
60.Which way of traveling in Tanzania do you like? Why?
【答案】56.A country. 57.Three/3 (ways). 58.The lions. 59.Taking a hot balloon. 60.I like by hot balloon because it’s exciting and offers a special breakfast.
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在坦桑尼亚观赏动物的三种常见旅行方式:乘巴士、乘船和乘热气球,并分别说明了每种方式的特点、可观察的动物及相关细节 (如热气球的高成本)。
56.根据第一段“Tanzania is a country...”可知,坦桑尼亚是一个国家。故填A country.
57.文中分三段分别介绍了“By bus”、“By boat”和“By hot balloon”三种方式。故填Three/3 ways.
58.根据第二段“We know that people are more interested in the lions than the other animals.”可知,人们对狮子比对其他动物更感兴趣。故填The lions.
59.根据第四段“Taking a hot balloon excites most of the travelers.”可知,乘坐热气球使大多数旅行者兴奋不已。故填Taking a hot balloon.
60.开放性试题,言之有理即可。参考答案为:I like by hot balloon because it’s exciting and offers a special breakfast.

【导语】本文主要介绍了中国的文化和习俗,以及作为外国人在中国旅行时需要注意的事项。
61.句意:在中国旅行时,了解中国的文化和习俗对你的行为举止很重要。根据前句“China is an old country with a rich culture.”可知,了解中国的文化很重要,名词culture“文化”符合语境。故填(c)ulture。
62.句意: 外国人被邀请到中国家庭做客正变得越来越流行。根据后句“Being invited to a Chinese family’s home”可知,此处是指外国人被邀请到中国人家里做客。应用被动语态,其结构为be done,动词invite“邀请”的过去分词是invited。故填(i)nvited。
63.句意:被邀请到中国家庭做客是一种美妙而温暖的经历。根据“Being invited to a Chinese family’s home can be a wonderful and warm...”并结合单词首字母提示可知,此处表示被邀请到中国人家里做客是一次美妙的经历。名词experience意为“经历”,a后接可数名词的单数形式。故填(e)xperience。
64.句意:别忘了对家里你喜欢的某个特别的东西说几句好话。根据“say good words about...special you like in the house”并结合单词首字母提示可知,此处指喜欢的某个特别的东西。空格处应用不定代词something,something special意为“特别的东西”。故填(s)omething。
65.句意:中国人喜欢收到装在漂亮盒子或篮子里的水果或茶。根据“fruit or tea in a nice box or basket”可知,此处在介绍中国人喜欢收到的礼物。动词receive意为“收到”,结合短语like to do sth.“喜欢做某事”可知,空格处应用动词原形。故填(r)eceive。
66.句意:闲聊后,晚餐就来了。根据“After some small talks”和常识可知,闲聊过后就是吃饭了。此处是一个倒装句,表示“晚餐来了”,动词come意为“来”,主语the dinner是单数,时态为一般现在时,所以come要变成第三人称单数形式comes。故填(c)omes。
67.句意:当被邀请过来吃饭时,一定要注意到其他每一个人在做什么,并试着做同样的事情。根据“try to do the same”可知,此处表示要去观察其他人在做什么。everybody else意为“其他每一个人”。故填(e)lse。
68.句意:不要吃光整盘菜,而要在盘子里留少量食物。根据“leave a small amount of food on the plates”可知,此处表示不要吃光整盘菜。whole意为“全部的,整个的”。故填(w)hole。
69.句意:中国人不怕问私人问题,即使你们是第一次见面。for the first time意为“第一次”。故填(f)irst。
70.句意:尽情享受当地中国人热情好客的世界。enjoy oneself意为“尽情享受”,该句是祈使句,隐含主语是第二人称you,结合后句“As a guest in China”可知,you在此处表示“你”,所以空格处应填反身代词yourself“你自己”。故填(y)ourself。

Your sincerely,

In the 1920s, wheat farmers on the Great Plains(大平原) were making a lot of money. This made many other people want to be farmers, too. But no one tried to stop the farmers from plowing almost all the land and cutting down most of the trees.
Still, everything was fine until 1931. This was the beginning of a terrible drought—a long period without rain. The beautiful wheat fields dried up, and the crops died. Then there were no plants to keep the soil in place. All that was left was bare, ugly, dry dirt.
Then the wind started to blow. With no trees to prevent it, the wind gathered up the soil into huge black clouds that travelled for miles. These clouds were called dust storms, and it was impossible for people to get away from them. Dirt is collected in people’s houses. It fell into their food. It got into their noses, mouths, and eyes. People wore masks, but the dust still clogged their lungs, causing many people to get sick. The dust even fell very high in a few places. Everything was buried in the dust, and farm animals died without food. The serious storms punished everyone and everything. The Great Plains became known as the Dust Bowl.
This was the worst natural disaster ever to hit the United States. But some people believed the farmers deserved what happened to them because they did not care for the soil. They said the disaster could be prevented if the farmers were wiser and more careful.

“Yes. Axel,” my uncle said, “and I shall give it my name, as I discovered it!”
There was a great lake or even an ocean. The shore was covered with small shells where the first living beings lived. Around this sea stood a huge rock wall.
I could see far over this great sea because of a strange light. Not sunlight, of course, as we were deep below the surface. No; with its bright, clear whiteness, the light must have been electric (电的).
We kept quiet inside a cave that must have been several miles high.
Human words cannot describe the discoveries of those who have been deep into the earth. My imagination was powerless before such wonders. I felt surprised and quite scared at the same time. However, the soft salty air cheered me up. After many days in much narrower spaces, it was a great relief.
“Ready to walk a little now?” asked my uncle.
“Yes, certainly.”
“Well, let us follow the shore then,” he said, and we began to explore.
Soon in front of us appeared a forest with trees like umbrellas. “Mushrooms !” said my uncle. And he was right! There were mushrooms in their thousands, and each at least nine meters high. How excellent they were!
“Wonderful!” cried my uncle. “Now look under your feet.”
I hadn’t noticed the many bones under our feet as we walked. Suddenly I thought, if once these monsters lived here, might some still walk through these dark forests? I looked around nervously, but we were the only living beings in this underworld. Thankfully!
Finally, we returned to the cave we had entered from, and I went to sleep with strange thoughts. Where did this underground sea end? Where would we go?
(Adapted from Journey to the Center of the Earth)

Nowadays, many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming (直播) shows becomes part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture finds a bigger stage online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream. Some of them sing Beijing Opera, some make paper cutting, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming.
Li Jun is a Beijing Opera performer from the Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. The 59-year-old took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a real stage, Li uses many places as his stage, including his office and study room. Except singing, Li also teaches people about Beijing Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers.
“Livestreaming brings this traditional art down to earth.” One Internet user said, “it gives young people an easier way to learn more about the traditional art.” Li has more than 6000 fans online, while one of his videos got 42000 views on a video platform.
On March 26th, 2020, a video platform live streamed a huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers showed clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming Dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed looking at the clothes, but also watched how performers used ancient styles of make-up.

Tanzania (坦桑尼亚) is a country with a lot of animals, such as lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes and so on. Every year, many people in the world travel to this African country to watch the animals closely. But do you know how they travel?
By bus—This is the most common way. But the bus is different from the ones we often see. There are no big windows at all, but some small windows. And it looks like a cage. People can use it to watch animals, especially those dangerous animals, and take photos. We know that people are more interested in the lions than the other animals. So when two buses meet, the drivers will stop and ask each other whether they have found lions.
By boat—We can often see many people are in a boat, enjoying the beautiful scene along a river of a lake, and they can also enjoy hippos (河马) and crocodiles (鳄鱼) from a nearer distance (距离).
By hot balloon (热气球)—Taking a hot balloon excites most of the travelers. After some time, the balloon will land in a certain place, and the waiters will serve people a delicious and special breakfast. But the cost of taking a hot balloon is also very high. A person should pay 400 dollars for an hour’s trip.

Do you want to live in a beautiful world? As we all know, we have only one earth and we can have a healthier life if the environment is good. So it is our duty to save and protect the earth. First, we can stop using cars. We can go to school or work on foot or by bus. It not only can protect the environment, but also is good for our health. Second, we are supposed to sort the rubbish into different kinds because some can be reused or recycled. Third, we had better plant trees. What’s more, stop littering! It’s necessary to put things you don’t need in the bin.
It’s also important to sort the rubbish, which can turn waste into treasure. We can remember to turn off the water taps after finishing washing and turn off the lights when leaving the classroom.
I think if everyone does a little, we can make a big difference to build a happier earth.
