He was born on July 27, 1994. He loves to work on big projects to solve problems on Earth. When Boyan was 16 years old, he went on a diving trip to Greece. He was very surprised to see more plastic bags (塑料袋) in the water than fish. This made him want to do something about the plastic in the oceans. Later, he thought of building a machine which would use the moving water in the oceans to collect the plastic waste. In 2012, Boyan showed his first plan to clean up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (太平洋垃圾块) at a TEDx meeting. In 2013, the video of his talk became very popular online. Because of this, Boyan decided to leave his university and started an organization called The Ocean Cleanup. Things didn’t go well in the beginning. The first two machines, Systems 001 and Systems 001/B, didn’t work well. They had different technical problems. System 001 couldn’t hold plastic well and its parts got broken because of strong forces. Though they faced some difficulties, they didn’t give up. In 2019, System 001/B finally caught some plastic. This was a big step forward. The organization also made a new machine called the Interceptor. It looks like a big boat and uses solar power (太阳能). Its job is to stop plastic from going into the oceans from rivers. Boyan and his team are trying to make our oceans and rivers cleaner and healthier. You can visit their website (https://theoceancleanup.com/) to see how much progress they have made and learn more about their work. 31. What made Boyan Slat want to solve the ocean plastic problem?

To start the Ocean Cleanup. C. To build solar-powered boats. D. To travel to the Great Pacific. 33. Why was the failure of System 001 important for Boyan’s team? A. It proved their idea was wrong and they should stop. B. It showed them what needed to improve for future machines. C. It made them focus only on river cleanup with the Interceptor. D. It taught them that cleaning the ocean is too difficult for young people. 34. How can we learn more about Boyan Slat and his team’s work? A. By writing e-mails to them. B. By reading their books. C. By visiting their website. D. By working with them. 35. Which words best describe Boyan Slat? A. Smart and funny. B. Kind and friendly. C. Quiet and careful. D. Creative and strong-willed. 【答案】31.

With over 20 types, Tangchang cloth shoes are strong, soft, breathable and friendly to the environment. In 2018, they were added to Sichuan’s intangible cultural heritage list (非物质文化遗产名录). 63-year-old Lai Shufang has been making Tangchang cloth shoes for 40 years. Now she is very experienced. She said there are 32 steps to make a pair, but the most important step is making the soles. Layers (层) of white cloth are glued together with flour paste (糨糊). “To make good paste, we make it at a temperature of 85℃. If it’s too low or too high, the paste will not work.” Lai said. Then the pasted layers are dried and cut into different shapes. After this, the layered cloth is beaten again and again until it is tight (紧实的) enough to make soles and upper parts. The next step is to shape the two parts and glue them together. But still the soles edges look fluffy. Through repeated polishing and trimming (滚压和修整), the fluffy edges (毛边) will become smooth. Then the cloth shoes are ready. Lai’s hard work touched her son Ai Peng. In 2015, Ai decided to leave his job and help his mother. He used Shu embroidery (蜀绣) to make the shoes look more beautiful and opened a cloth shoe store online. He also set up shop windows to show the steps of making shoes, helping more people learn about the art of cloth shoes. 36.

Well, it doesn’t just happen in the movies. The Diomedes, two small islands in the Bering Sea, are famous as one of the fewest places where you can do it. The international date line is an imaginary (虚构的) line that runs through the middle of the Pacific Ocean (太平洋), marking the difference between calendar dates. Crossing the line from east to west, you would need to set your clock forward by a day, while crossing from west to east, you would set it back by a day. The international date line runs from the North to the South Pole, but it isn’t straight (笔直的). It just passes right between the Diomedes islands, making it possible to travel through time just by crossing only 3.8 km. Not only are these two islands in two different countries but also that they are 21 hours apart in time. When it’s noon on a Thursday in the American Little Diomede, it’s 9 a.m. on Friday in Big Diomede. Because they’re only a few miles away from each other, you can actually see one of the Diomedes from the other one which means you can look into the future, or the past, too. Usually, you’d have to sail or swim between the two Diomedes, but during the winter an ice bridge appears between them. You can even walk from one to the other. Unluckily, that’s easier said than done. The international date line between them is also the border between Russia and the United States. The Big Diomede, or “Tomorrow island”, is a part of Russia, while Little Diomede, or “Yesterday island”, is a US territory (领土). Traveling between the two islands is not allowed, and foreign fishing boats getting too close to either side sometimes get some warning shots (鸭枪警告) from the soldiers. 41. Why does the writer ask a question at the beginning of the text? A. To discuss the possibility of travelling through time. B. To raise the readers’ interest about the Diomede islands. C. To test the readers’ knowledge about the Diomede islands. D. To make the reader think about how to travel through time. 42. Which of the following is TRUE about the international date line? A. It is an imaginary straight line. B. It runs from the North to the South pole. C. It runs through the middle of the Bering Sea. D. When crossing it, you always set the clock back. 43. When it’s 4:00 a.m. on Monday in the Big Diomede, what time is it in American Little Diomede? A. 1:00 a.m. on Tuesday. B. 7:00 a.m. on Sunday. C. 1:00 a.m. on Sunday. D. 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday. 44. Why is Big Diomede called “Tomorrow Island”? A. It is a part of Russia. B. The sun rises earlier there. C. The international date line runs through it. D. It is always 21 hours ahead of Little Diomede. 45 What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To encourage tourists to the Diomedes islands. B. To explain how the international date line works. C. To tell people some facts about two special islands. D. To tell people about cultures of Russian and American 【答案】41. B 42. B 43. C 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了位于白令海的Diomede群岛的特殊性，包括国际日期变更线从中穿过导致的时间差异，以及其分属俄罗斯和美国的地理位置。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Is it possible to travel through time?”可知，以问题开篇，引出Diomedes群岛作为“时间旅行”独特地点，从而激发读者对该岛屿的兴趣。故选B。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The international date line runs from the North to the South Pole, but it isn’t straight.”可知，国际日期变更线从北极延伸到南极，但它不是笔直的。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“When it’s noon on a Thursday in the American Little Diomede, it’s 9 a.m. on Friday in Big Diomede.”可知，当美国小Diomede是星期四中午时，俄罗斯大Diomede是星期五上午9点。这表明大Diomede比小Diomede早21小时。所以当大Diomede是周一凌晨4点时，小Diomede是周日凌晨1点。故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据根据第三段“...they are 21 hours apart in time. When it’s noon on a Thursday in the American Little Diomede, it’s 9 a.m. on Friday in Big Diomede.”和第“”可知，当美国小Diomede是星期四中午时，俄罗斯大Diomede是星期五上午9点，大Diomede比小Diomede早21小时。因此当小Diomede是“今天”时，大Diomede已是“明天”，这解释了名称的由来。故选D。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕Diomede群岛的特殊性展开，包括其地理位置、时间差异及国际边界意义，旨在介绍这两座特殊岛屿的相关事实。故选C。 第二节（每小题1分, 满分5分） E 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Anger is a kind of feeling. ___46___ When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get angry. ___47___ For example, you breathe (呼吸) faster.

Getting angry sometimes is normal. ___48___ You need to find some ways to cut down on this feeling. When you get angry, you can talk about it with grown-ups such as parents, teachers and so on. ___49___ And here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug; go for a bike ride; think about good things ...

He was born on July 27, 1994. He loves to work on big projects to solve problems on Earth. When Boyan was 16 years old, he went on a diving trip to Greece. He was very surprised to see more plastic bags (塑料袋) in the water than fish. This made him want to do something about the plastic in the oceans. Later, he thought of building a machine which would use the moving water in the oceans to collect the plastic waste. In 2012, Boyan showed his first plan to clean up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (太平洋垃圾块) at a TEDx meeting. In 2013, the video of his talk became very popular online. Because of this, Boyan decided to leave his university and started an organization called The Ocean Cleanup. Things didn’t go well in the beginning. The first two machines, Systems 001 and Systems 001/B, didn’t work well. They had different technical problems. System 001 couldn’t hold plastic well and its parts got broken because of strong forces. Though they faced some difficulties, they didn’t give up. In 2019, System 001/B finally caught some plastic. This was a big step forward. The organization also made a new machine called the Interceptor. It looks like a big boat and uses solar power (太阳能). Its job is to stop plastic from going into the oceans from rivers. Boyan and his team are trying to make our oceans and rivers cleaner and healthier. You can visit their website (https://theoceancleanup.com/) to see how much progress they have made and learn more about their work. 31. What made Boyan Slat want to solve the ocean plastic problem? A. A talk at a TEDx meeting. B. His diving trip in Greece. C. A science project at school. D. A story he read in a book. 32. Why did Slat leave university in 2013? A. To study ocean science. B. To start the Ocean Cleanup. C. To build solar-powered boats. D. To travel to the Great Pacific. 33. Why was the failure of System 001 important for Boyan’s team? A. It proved their idea was wrong and they should stop. B. It showed them what needed to improve for future machines. C. It made them focus only on river cleanup with the Interceptor. D. It taught them that cleaning the ocean is too difficult for young people. 34. How can we learn more about Boyan Slat and his team’s work? A. By writing e-mails to them. B. By reading their books. C. By visiting their website. D. By working with them. 35. Which words best describe Boyan Slat? A. Smart and funny. B. Kind and friendly. C. Quiet and careful. D. Creative and strong-willed. C Tangchang, a town in Chengdu, is well-known for cloth shoes. With over 20 types, Tangchang cloth shoes are strong, soft, breathable and friendly to the environment. In 2018, they were added to Sichuan’s intangible cultural heritage list (非物质文化遗产名录). 63-year-old Lai Shufang has been making Tangchang cloth shoes for 40 years. Now she is very experienced. She said there are 32 steps to make a pair, but the most important step is making the soles. Layers (层) of white cloth are glued together with flour paste (糨糊). “To make good paste, we make it at a temperature of 85℃. If it’s too low or too high, the paste will not work.” Lai said. Then the pasted layers are dried and cut into different shapes. After this, the layered cloth is beaten again and again until it is tight (紧实的) enough to make soles and upper parts. The next step is to shape the two parts and glue them together. But still the soles edges look fluffy. Through repeated polishing and trimming (滚压和修整), the fluffy edges (毛边) will become smooth. Then the cloth shoes are ready. Lai’s hard work touched her son Ai Peng. In 2015, Ai decided to leave his job and help his mother. He used Shu embroidery (蜀绣) to make the shoes look more beautiful and opened a cloth shoe store online. He also set up shop windows to show the steps of making shoes, helping more people learn about the art of cloth shoes. 36. What is the most important step in making Tangchang cloth shoes according to Ms. Lai? A. Making the soles. B. Making the upper parts. C. Making good flour paste. D. Making smooth edges. 37. What is the correct order of the following steps in making Tangchang cloth shoes? ①beating the laycred cloth ②making flour paste at an exact temperature ③gluing the upper parts and the soles together A. ③②① B. ②③① C. ③①② D. ②①③ 38. How many things has Lai’s son done to make the cloth shoes more popular? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 39. Which of the following questions is answered in the passage? A. What are the features of Tangchang cloth shoes? B. When did Ms. Lai become a master of making cloth shoes? C. What's the most important material in making cloth shoes? D. Who taught Ms. Lai to make Tangchang cloth shoes? 40. What is the best title for this passage? A. A Talented Shoemaker, Lai Shufang B. Handmade Cloth Shoes in Tangchang C. Tangchang, a Well-known Town in Chengdu D. Ai Peng’s Cloth Shoe Store D Is it possible to travel through time? Well, it doesn’t just happen in the movies. The Diomedes, two small islands in the Bering Sea, are famous as one of the fewest places where you can do it. The international date line is an imaginary (虚构的) line that runs through the middle of the Pacific Ocean (太平洋), marking the difference between calendar dates. Crossing the line from east to west, you would need to set your clock forward by a day, while crossing from west to east, you would set it back by a day. The international date line runs from the North to the South Pole, but it isn’t straight (笔直的). It just passes right between the Diomedes islands, making it possible to travel through time just by crossing only 3.8 km. Not only are these two islands in two different countries but also that they are 21 hours apart in time. When it’s noon on a Thursday in the American Little Diomede it’s 9 a.m. on Friday in Big Diomede. Because they’re only a few miles away from each other, you can actually see one of the Diomedes from the other one which means you can look into the future, or the past, too. Usually, you’d have to sail or swim between the two Diomedes, but during the winter an ice bridge appears between them. You can even walk from one to the other. Unluckily, that’s easier said than done. The international date line between them is also the border between Russia and the United States. The Big Diomede, or “Tomorrow island”, is a part of Russia, while Little Diomede, or “Yesterday island”, is a US territory (领土). Traveling between the two islands is not allowed, and foreign fishing boats getting too close to either side sometimes get some warning shots (鸭枪警告) from the soldiers. 41. Why does the writer ask a question at the beginning of the text? A. To discuss the possibility of travelling through time. B. To raise the readers’ interest about the Diomede islands. C.

It is an imaginary straight line. B. It runs from the North to the South pole. C It runs through the middle of the Bering Sea. D. When crossing it, you always set the clock back. 43. When it’s 4:00 a.m. on Monday in the Big Diomede, what time is it in American Little Diomede? A. 1:00 a.m. on Tuesday. B. 7:00 a.m. on Sunday. C. 1:00 a.m. on Sunday. D. 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday. 44. Why is Big Diomede called “Tomorrow Island”? A. It is a part of Russia. B. The sun rises earlier there. C. The international date line runs through it. D. It is always 21 hours ahead of Little Diomede. 45. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To encourage tourists to the Diomedes islands. B. To explain how the international date line works. C.
