One possible version:
As Henry made more notes, an idea started forming in his head. Maybe he could create a news page for the neighbors. But how would he print it? He pedaled to school and explained everything to his good friends. “Let’s work it out together.” All his friends agreed to help. The next day, good news came. Jenny helped to get a second-hand color printer and Bob’s father promised to supply paper to them for free. “Perfect!” Henry said.
Customers cheered Henry's idea and helped supply the news. Miss Roberts advertised that she needed a teenager to help clean her basement. The new family who just moved in invited neighbors to a “Meet the Johnsons” party. Henry added: “Stories told by friendly gentleman at 26 Maple. Stop by to chat.” Henry typed the news, made photocopies, and delivered the first Tree Streets News on Saturday. After that, neighbors advertised giveaways, and requested books and music. Henry missed his old Gazette job, but he had launched something too. He was making news and connecting neighbors.

Theme parks and amusement parks will be standing tall this season, not just in the sense of proudly displaying their shiny, brand spanking new rides. The most expected ride of 2020, however, will take you for a face-to-face encounter with thrilling adventure.
Banshee at Kings Island, Mason, Ohio. Inverted(倒置的) feature trains that hang suspended from the track above and leave passengers’ legs hanging. They typically offer tight turns with lots of positive G-forces. With a ride time of 2 minutes 40 seconds and a track length of 4,124 +feet, Banshee is the world’s longest inverted coaster and is getting so many praises from ride fans. That is really wonderful and exciting.
Despicable Me Minion Mayhem at Universal Studios Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. The extremely silly characters from the popular Despicable Me movie bring their powerful funny actions to an engaging 4-D ride film. It’s loaded with laughs, and like the movies,includes some surprisingly touching moments as well.
Goliath at Six Flags Great America, Gurnee, Illinois. The creative company that is building this new coaster has an impressive track record of delivering incredibly smooth and satisfying thrill machines. So the expectation is high for Goliath, which will boast a 180-foot, 85-degree drop and a top speed of 72mph, which will make it the world's tallest, fastest, and steepest wooden coaster.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World, Lake Buena Vista, Florida. It’s both a mildly thrilling coaster with a unique cradle(摇篮) design that allows the cars to swing back and forth and a forcing “dark ride” that takes guests into the colourful mine to see the Seven Dwarfs at work. The animated characters are particularly striking in the attraction, which is the capstone of the park’s New Fantasyland expansion.
21. How does ride fans feel after riding Banshee?
A. Wonderful and excited. B. Surprised and angry.
C. Disappointed. D. Hopeless and happy.
22. What is Goliath made of?
A. Steel. B. Wood. C. Bamboo. D. Iron.
23. How is the cradle design of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train?
A. It takes guests into the colourful mine.
B. It has an impressive track record.
C. It brings their powerful funny actions to an engaging 4-D ride film.
D. It allows the cars to swing back and forth.

On Wednesday, Chinese video infuencer Li Ziqi posted a video in which she showcased the mixture of velvet flower(绒花) making techniques and Shu brocade(蜀锦). The reactions from both Chinese and overseas netizens confirm again the widespread appeal of Chinese culture around the globe.
A day earlier, Li restarted uploading her video works after three years with two videos on social media platforms like Douyin, Sina Weibo and YouTube, sharing how she turned wood into a room by hand, and her use of the intangible cultural heritage of Chinese lacquerware(漆器) techniques. In just one day, the lacquerware video on YouTube has earned more than 10 million views and more than 40,000 comments. On Sina Weibo, just five and a half hours after its release, the video got 100 million views and 1.6 million interactions, including shares, comments, and likes.
Coming after a three-year gap, Li’s posts raised heated discussions online, with her fans from home and abroad flooding the comment section with messages of support expressing how much they missed her content.
For a long time, Li’s quiet picture of rural life — farming, crafting, cooking, and demonstrating traditional Chinese techniques — has been more than just her personal expression. It is an exploration of the timeless simplicity of traditional Chinese way of life that has deeply agreed with international audiences.
While Li may be the most well-known example, she is not alone to successfully showcase Chinese culture on the global stage and receive huge popularity. In recent years, numerous creators such as the food vlogger Dianxi Xiaoge based in Southwest China’s Yunnan Province and the woodwork master Grandpa Amu have also gained significant following on overseas platforms.
The growing global presence of Chinese content creators has been playing an important part in the cultural exchanges between China and abroad. These creators are setting an example of heart-to-heart communication in the digital age.
24. Which of the following techniques was used by Li in the video posted on Wednesday?
A. Chinese lacquerware. B. Wood crafting.
C. Farming and cooking. D. Velvet flower making and Shu brocade.
25. What explains the widespread appeal of Li Ziqi’s videos among overseas netizens?
A. The display of her personal expression.
B. The support of her fans after a three-year gap.
C. The deep love for Chinese culture of international audiences.
D. The pursuit of simple Chinese country lifestyle in her videos.
26. Why did the author mention Dianxi Xiaoge and Grandpa Amu?
A. To list some popular online personalities in China.
B. To show specific types of content which can be successful overseas.
C. To show that more Chinese content creators are gaining popularity overseas.
D. To compare their popularity with that of Li Ziqi.
27. What can we know about Li Ziqi’s character from the passage?
A. She is patient and has a strong sense of cultural responsibility.
B. She is hardworking and refuses to adapt to modern times.
C. She is casual about traditional skills and shows them for entertainment.
D. She is creative and changes some customs to appeal to foreign audience.
C
A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry Ⅷ a good king?” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation(二次方程式)” would leave the classroom at a loss and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself.
Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.
If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine, is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful? How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill? Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem(贝叶斯定理), a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive assumptions and very simple maths.
Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand.
28. What can we know from paragraph 1?
A. Designing math homework is easier.
B. Quadratic equation may confuse young learners.
C. Nine-year-olds enjoy history questions.
D. Postgraduates find math problems too simple.
29. What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author?
A. It covers various topics.
B. It casts light on math thoughts.
C. It satisfies maths professionals.
D. It makes sense to ordinary people.
30. How does Professor Spiegelhalter explain probability and statistics?
A. By using advanced mathematical formulas.
B. By analyzing real-life questions with simple maths.
C. By discussing complex scientific theories.
D. By conducting experiments in lecture theatres.
31. The text is probably written to ______.
A. introduce a new book on mathematics.
B. compare teaching mathematics with history.
C. explain complex mathematical theories simply.
D. persuade people to study probability and statistics.
D
I know people who say they don’t watch television, and I always nod and agree. Reading requires intelligence, and television is merely entertainment, right?
I’m going to Scotland this year, and three different people told me I must watch “Outlander” before I go, which is like “Game of Thrones” for fans of romance novels. I watched the first four-hour-long episodes back to back. When I stood up from the couch I felt sick, and it wasn’t just the cookies, popcorn and peanut butter sandwiches I’d had without noticing. It was dark outside, and I felt ashamed. I had spent half a day on the couch. Research for Scotland? Not exactly.
A few days later I had a library book due: The National Book Award winner The Friend, by Sigrid Nunez. I needed to finish it, so I read the last half straight through. I was absorbed in Nunez’s New York City, worrying about the heroin’s career and her future. I finished the book with tears in my eyes and stood up feeling, well, great.
I had wasted another four hours on my couch. I hadn’t eaten as much junk food because I needed my hands free — and not sticky — so I could turn pages and return the book to the library relatively clean, but I hadn’t moved and once again it was dark outside. Why did I feel so much better and guilt-free?
All the research says reading a book is good for you. It reduces stress, promotes comprehension and imagination, relieves depression, helps you sleep and may contribute to preventing Alzheimer’s(阿尔兹海默症). The act of physically turning a page creates a momentary pause for understanding to sink in. Our brains have to work to translate the black squiggles(弯弯曲曲的线条) on the page into words and then interpret the meaning and intent(意图) of those words. When a character is described as tall with brown hair, a reader creates her own picture. TV takes all that imagination away. But there’s a lot of good TV now. I’d like to say the answer to TV versus books must be, as Aristotle said, “Moderation in all things,” though he never had a television or a computer and had to read his scrolls by candlelight. I agree that too much television is bad for you. I know I feel better if I read, but it won’t stop me from watching too: My second DVD of “Outlander” has just arrived, and as soon as I get this essay done, the rest of my day is free.
32. By “I always nod and agree”(paragraph 1), the author implies that ______ .
A. she doesn’t think highly of TV either
B. she believes those who say they don’t watch TV
C. she should be polite to get the conversation to go on
D. she is not willing to admit that she watches television
33. The phrase “back to back”(paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to “ ______ ”.
A. from morning till night B. one after another without a break
C. looking at the opposite direction D. leaning against the back of the couch
34. The author felt better after reading The Friend than watching “Outlander”, most probably because ______ .
A. she didn’t feel hungry for any snacks
B. the TV series got her to cancel her trip to Scotland
C. the television series was no more attractive than the book
D. she regarded reading as more rewarding than watching TV
35. What can be concluded from all the research introduced in paragraph 5?
A. Reading is active while watching TV is passive.
B. Reading involves physical exercises while watching TV doesn’t.
C. Reading stimulates the brain to concentrate while watching TV doesn’t.
D. Reading is good for one’s mental health while watching TV is bad for it.

Picture this: you’ve just settled into your workday and pulled up that big report you need to finish, when a friend sends you a couple of celebrity videos on WeChat. 36 And then the next thing you know, an hour has gone by while that big reportsits, ignored, on your desk. So how does that happen?
To understand this, we conducted a series of studies and identified three factors: the amount of media the person has already viewed, the similarity of the media they’ve viewed, and the manner in which they viewed the media.
We found the order and types of content we consume can affect our decision to keep consuming similar content. But what drives this effect? 37 When something feels more accessible, it becomes easier to process, leading us to enjoy it more.
These results also explain why it’s so easy to get distracted by apps on social media at work. 38 They offer bite-sized content that makes it easy to quickly consume several videos in a row. They often automatically suggest similar content, and many of them even automatically start playing similar videos, reducing the potential for interruptions.
39 If you really want to watch multiple in a row, choose those that seem unrelated. You can also use a social media timer that urges you to take a break after a certain amount of time, or even just consciously remind yourself to consume different kinds of content.
So, if you’ re struggling to climb out of a rabbit hole, try to find ways to reduce the similarity, repetitiveness, and relatedness of the content you’ re consuming. 40 Once you manage to break free, you’ll be back at that big report in no time.
A. It can be difficult, but it’s not impossible.
B. To fight the pull, make an effort to just watch one video.
C. You figure you’ll just take a few minutes to watch them.
D. Accessibility refers to how familiar a given kind of content feels.
E. This will be a problem if you are kept from focusing on your work.
F. Many platforms are designed to trap viewers in a social media rabbit hole.
G. Prior research suggests the three factors increase the accessibility of similar media.

Every act of kindness starts with something small, something we all can and should do every single day. I’m Will Ruhio, one of the 41 of BYUTV’s Random Acts show. We take hidden cameras to unexpected places to 42 random acts of kindness. We’ve filmed acts 43 from building disabled-friendly facilities for those who are badly 44 them but can’t afford them to returning a lost wallet.
On Random Acts, it may be a neighbor or a colleague who recognizes a need and 45 an incredible chain reaction of service. 46 the story of Emmalene Meyers for example. Emmalene was 47 to be a ballet dancer, but her physical disability makes even everyday tasks a(n) 48 . Emmalene’s friend Lily 49 an opportunity. She imagined Emmalene’s dream being brought to life onstage and persuaded Random Acts to help make her plan 50 .
So, where can you start? The key is to be like Lily: look for an opportunity to make a 51 to those in need, and then take action to make it happen. Being 52 and involved in service is just like any other goal you want to achieve. You have to 53 it.
After two seasons of hosting Random Acts, the joy of reducing burdens and brightening lives doesn’t fade. I sometimes assume Random Acts might lose its feature eventually, but that couldn’t be further from the 54 . When I finally meet the people we’ve been working to 55 and see their genuine shock and appreciation, it hits me in the feel every time. I cry more than anyone else on the show.

A social media account claiming to belong to well-known Chinese mathematician Wei Dongyi was discovered on a popular short-video platform on Friday.
56 account, which is under the username “韦东奕”(Wei Dongyi), contained only a single 4-second video. In the clip, Wei himself appears, 57 (say) simply, “Hello everyone, my name is Wei Dongyi. This is my account.” The account’s profile(简介) 58 (exact) identified it as the “personal account of Wei Dongyi.”
The impact was immediate and massive. So far, the account 59 (attract) over 10 million followers.
According to a report by Chengdu.cn., Wei Dongyi’s cousin confirmed that it is indeed Wei’s personal account, which was set up with the assistance 60 his family members. The cousin said that the account would be used 61 (share) the content related to mathematics, aiming to facilitate greater 62 (interact) between Wei and the public.
The comment section was quickly flooded with students and parents making wishes for 63 (excellently) performance in the ongoing national college entrance exams(gaokao), hoping for top scores and successful university placements.
In 2021, Wei Dongyi went viral online after a video showed him sending blessings to gaokao 64 (student). During an interview, he appeared holding a bottle of mineral water — an modest image 65 contrasted sharply with his reputation as a mathematics “genius.” Since then, netizens have lovingly nicknamed him “Wei Shen”.

After Henry delivered all the newspapers, he pedaled fast to The Gazette offices by 8: 30. The chief editor had something important to tell him. He parked his bike and bounded up two nights of stairs to the chief editor's door.
Mr. Trotta greeted him. "About those papers," he paused, "no good way to deliver bad news," Henry’s smile faded. "Were closing shop Saturday. Advertisingis down. Television is how people get their news today, Mr. Trotta shrugged, "You won't have to get up early on weekends." "No," said Henry, "but I like waking up early and meeting people on my route. It's sad People won't get their neighborhood news any more.”
As Henry rode past the familiar houses, he saw Mr Grady on his porch(门廊) holding a broom(扫把). "Mr. Grady, wait," Henry called, setting down his bike. He led Mr. Grady to a chair and took the broom. In minutes, the porch was clean. "Now, Mr, Grady, anytime you have chores(家务) call me." They sat for a while as Mr. Grady recalled how happy he’d been moving his family to 26 Maple. He sounded lonely.
A week after closing, Henry wondered if his customers missed The Gazette as much as he did. He thought of a way to find out.
He started out on his old route with a notebook. First stop: Mr, Jonas, 17 Oak. When Henry asked him about the paper, Mr. Jonas answered, "I sure liked reading the week's happenings. By the way, I have a pile of old comics from The Gazette. Think someone would want them?"
“I’ll ask around." Henry made a note in his notebook.
He stopped at Mrs. Burke's, 27 Maple. She opened the door holding two babies. Her other two kids held on toher legs. Henry stared. "You could use a babysitter." "Definitely. I meant to put an ad in The Gazette, but....Know any neighbors with experience?”
Mr Simon was next door, carrying his violin out to his car. "Hey, Henry. My band is having aconcert in the park next Friday. Tell all your friends.”
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.
As Henry made more notes, an idea started forming in his head.

Theme parks and amusement parks will be standing tall this season, not just in the sense of proudly displaying their shiny, brand spanking new rides. The most expected ride of 2020, however, will take you for a face-to-face encounter with thrilling adventure.
Banshee at Kings Island, Mason, Ohio. Inverted(倒置的) feature trains that hang suspended from the track above and leave passengers’ legs hanging. They typically offer tight turns with lots of positive G-forces. With a ride time of 2 minutes 40 seconds and a track length of 4,124 +feet, Banshee is the world’s longest inverted coaster and is getting so many praises from ride fans. That is really wonderful and exciting.
Despicable Me Minion Mayhem at Universal Studios Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. The extremely silly characters from the popular Despicable Me movie bring their powerful funny actions to an engaging 4-D ride film. It’s loaded with laughs, and like the movies,includes some surprisingly touching moments as well.
Goliath at Six Flags Great America, Gurnee, Illinois. The creative company that is building this new coaster has an impressive track record of delivering incredibly smooth and satisfying thrill machines. So the expectation is high for Goliath, which will boast a 180-foot, 85-degree drop and a top speed of 72mph, which will make it the world's tallest, fastest, and steepest wooden coaster.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World, Lake Buena Vista, Florida. It’s both a mildly thrilling coaster with a unique cradle(摇篮) design that allows the cars to swing back and forth and a forcing “dark ride” that takes guests into the colourful mine to see the Seven Dwarfs at work. The animated characters are particularly striking in the attraction, which is the capstone of the park’s New Fantasyland expansion.
21. How does ride fans feel after riding Banshee?
A. Wonderful and excited. B. Surprised and angry.
C. Disappointed. D. Hopeless and happy.
22. What is Goliath made of?

On Wednesday, Chinese video infuencer Li Ziqi posted a video in which she showcased the mixture of velvet flower(绒花) making techniques and Shu brocade(蜀锦). The reactions from both Chinese and overseas netizens confirm again the widespread appeal of Chinese culture around the globe.
A day earlier, Li restarted uploading her video works after three years with two videos on social media platforms like Douyin, Sina Weibo and YouTube, sharing how she turned wood into a room by hand, and her use of the intangible cultural heritage of Chinese lacquerware(漆器) techniques. In just one day, the lacquerware video on YouTube has earned more than 10 million views and more than 40,000 comments. On Sina Weibo, just five and a half hours after its release, the video got 100 million views and 1.6 million interactions, including shares, comments, and likes.
Coming after a three-year gap, Li’s posts raised heated discussions online, with her fans from home and abroad flooding the comment section with messages of support expressing how much they missed her content.
For a long time, Li’s quiet picture of rural life — farming, crafting, cooking, and demonstrating traditional Chinese techniques — has been more than just her personal expression. It is an exploration of the timeless simplicity of traditional Chinese way of life that has deeply agreed with international audiences.
While Li may be the most well-known example, she is not alone to successfully showcase Chinese culture on the global stage and receive huge popularity. In recent years, numerous creators such as the food vlogger Dianxi Xiaoge based in Southwest China’s Yunnan Province and the woodwork master Grandpa Amu have also gained significant following on overseas platforms.
The growing global presence of Chinese content creators has been playing an important part in the cultural exchanges between China and abroad. These creators are setting an example of heart-to-heart communication in the digital age.

A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry Ⅷ a good king?” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation(二次方程式)” would leave the classroom at a loss and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself.
Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.
If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine, is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful? How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill? Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem(贝叶斯定理), a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive assumptions and very simple maths.
Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand.
28. What can we know from paragraph 1?
A. Designing math homework is easier.
B. Quadratic equation may confuse young learners.
C. Nine-year-olds enjoy history questions.
D. Postgraduates find math problems too simple.
29. What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author?
A. It covers various topics.
B. It casts light on math thoughts.
C. It satisfies maths professionals.
D. It makes sense to ordinary people.
30. How does Professor Spiegelhalter explain probability and statistics?
A. By using advanced mathematical formulas.
B. By analyzing real-life questions with simple maths.
C. By discussing complex scientific theories.
D. By conducting experiments in lecture theatres.
31. The text is probably written to ______.
A. introduce a new book on mathematics.
B. compare teaching mathematics with history.
C. explain complex mathematical theories simply.
D. persuade people to study probability and statistics.
D
I know people who say they don’t watch television, and I always nod and agree. Reading requires intelligence, and television is merely entertainment, right?
I’m going to Scotland this year, and three different people told me I must watch “Outlander” before I go, which is like “Game of Thrones” for fans of romance novels. I watched the first four-hour-long episodes back to back. When I stood up from the couch I felt sick, and it wasn’t just the cookies, popcorn and peanut butter sandwiches I’d had without noticing. It was dark outside, and I felt ashamed. I had spent half a day on the couch. Research for Scotland? Not exactly.
A few days later I had a library book due: The National Book Award winner The Friend, by Sigrid Nunez. I needed to finish it, so I read the last half straight through. I was absorbed in Nunez’s New York City, worrying about the heroin’s career and her future. I finished the book with tears in my eyes and stood up feeling, well, great.
I had wasted another four hours on my couch. I hadn’t eaten as much junk food because I needed my hands free — and not sticky — so I could turn pages and return the book to the library relatively clean, but I hadn’t moved and once again it was dark outside. Why did I feel so much better and guilt-free?
All the research says reading a book is good for you. It reduces stress, promotes comprehension and imagination, relieves depression, helps you sleep and may contribute to preventing Alzheimer’s(阿尔兹海默症). The act of physically turning a page creates a momentary pause for understanding to sink in. Our brains have to work to translate the black squiggles(弯弯曲曲的线条) on the page into words and then interpret the meaning and intent(意图) of those words. When a character is described as tall with brown hair, a reader creates her own picture. TV takes all that imagination away. But there’s a lot of good TV now. I’d like to say the answer to TV versus books must be, as Aristotle said, “Moderation in all things,” though he never had a television or a computer and had to read his scrolls by candlelight. I agree that too much television is bad for you. I know I feel better if I read, but it won’t stop me from watching too: My second DVD of “Outlander” has just arrived, and as soon as I get this essay done, the rest of my day is free.
32. By “I always nod and agree”(paragraph 1), the author implies that ______ .
A. she doesn’t think highly of TV either
B. she believes those who say they don’t watch TV
C. she should be polite to get the conversation to go on
D. she is not willing to admit that she watches television
33. The phrase “back to back”(paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to “ ______ ”.
A. from morning till night B. one after another without a break
C. looking at the opposite direction D. leaning against the back of the couch
34. The author felt better after reading The Friend than watching “Outlander”, most probably because ______ .
A. she didn’t feel hungry for any snacks
B. the TV series got her to cancel her trip to Scotland
C. the television series was no more attractive than the book
D. she regarded reading as more rewarding than watching TV
35. What can be concluded from all the research introduced in paragraph 5?
A. Reading is active while watching TV is passive.
B. Reading involves physical exercises while watching TV doesn’t.
C. Reading stimulates the brain to concentrate while watching TV doesn’t.
D. Reading is good for one’s mental health while watching TV is bad for it.
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。
Picture this: you’ve just settled into your workday and pulled up that big report you need to finish, when a friend sends you a couple of celebrity videos on WeChat. 36 And then the next thing you know, an hour has gone by while that big reportsits, ignored, on your desk. So how does that happen?
To understand this, we conducted a series of studies and identified three factors: the amount of media the person has already viewed, the similarity of the media they’ve viewed, and the manner in which they viewed the media.
We found the order and types of content we consume can affect our decision to keep consuming similar content. But what drives this effect? 37 When something feels more accessible, it becomes easier to process, leading us to enjoy it more.
These results also explain why it’s so easy to get distracted by apps on social media at work. 38 They offer bite-sized content that makes it easy to quickly consume several videos in a row. They often automatically suggest similar content, and many of them even automatically start playing similar videos, reducing the potential for interruptions.
39 If you really want to watch multiple in a row, choose those that seem unrelated. You can also use a social media timer that urges you to take a break after a certain amount of time, or even just consciously remind yourself to consume different kinds of content.
So, if you’ re struggling to climb out of a rabbit hole, try to find ways to reduce the similarity, repetitiveness, and relatedness of the content you’ re consuming. 40 Once you manage to break free, you’ll be back at that big report in no time.
A. It can be difficult, but it’s not impossible.
B. To fight the pull, make an effort to just watch one video.
C. You figure you’ll just take a few minutes to watch them.
D. Accessibility refers to how familiar a given kind of content feels.
E. This will be a problem if you are kept from focusing on your work.
F. Many platforms are designed to trap viewers in a social media rabbit hole.
G. Prior research suggests the three factors increase the accessibility of similar media.

Every act of kindness starts with something small, something we all can and should do every single day. I’m Will Ruhio, one of the 41 of BYUTV’s Random Acts show.

She imagined Emmalene’s dream being brought to life onstage and persuaded Random Acts to help make her plan 50 .
So, where can you start? The key is to be like Lily: look for an opportunity to make a 51 to those in need, and then take action to make it happen. Being 52 and involved in service is just like any other goal you want to achieve. You have to 53 it.
After two seasons of hosting Random Acts, the joy of reducing burdens and brightening lives doesn’t fade. I sometimes assume Random Acts might lose its feature eventually, but that couldn’t be further from the 54 . When I finally meet the people we’ve been working to 55 and see their genuine shock and appreciation, it hits me in the feel every time. I cry more than anyone else on the show.

Mr. Trotta greeted him. "About those papers," he paused, "no good way to deliver bad news," Henry’s smile faded. "Were closing shop Saturday. Advertisingis down. Television is how people get their news today, Mr. Trotta shrugged, "You won't have to get up early on weekends." "No," said Henry, "but I like waking up early and meeting people on my route. It's sad People won't get their neighborhood news any more.”
As Henry rode past the familiar houses, he saw Mr Grady on his porch(门廊) holding a broom(扫把). "Mr. Grady, wait," Henry called, setting down his bike. He led Mr. Grady to a chair and took the broom. In minutes, the porch was clean. "Now, Mr, Grady, anytime you have chores(家务) call me." They sat for a while as Mr. Grady recalled how happy he’d been moving his family to 26 Maple. He sounded lonely.
A week after closing, Henry wondered if his customers missed The Gazette as much as he did. He thought of a way to find out.
He started out on his old route with a notebook. First stop: Mr, Jonas, 17 Oak. When Henry asked him about the paper, Mr. Jonas answered, "I sure liked reading the week's happenings. By the way, I have a pile of old comics from The Gazette. Think someone would want them?"
“I’ll ask around." Henry made a note in his notebook.
He stopped at Mrs. Burke's, 27 Maple. She opened the door holding two babies. Her other two kids held on toher legs. Henry stared. "You could use a babysitter." "Definitely. I meant to put an ad in The Gazette, but....Know any neighbors with experience?”
Mr Simon was next door, carrying his violin out to his car. "Hey, Henry. My band is having aconcert in the park next Friday. Tell all your friends.”

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Theme parks and amusement parks will be standing tall this season, not just in the sense of proudly displaying their shiny, brand spanking new rides. The most expected ride of 2020, however, will take you for a face-to-face encounter with thrilling adventure.
Banshee at Kings Island, Mason, Ohio. Inverted(倒置的) feature trains that hang suspended from the track above and leave passengers’ legs hanging. They typically offer tight turns with lots of positive G-forces. With a ride time of 2 minutes 40 seconds and a track length of 4,124 +feet, Banshee is the world’s longest inverted coaster and is getting so many praises from ride fans. That is really wonderful and exciting.
Despicable Me Minion Mayhem at Universal Studios Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. The extremely silly characters from the popular Despicable Me movie bring their powerful funny actions to an engaging 4-D ride film. It’s loaded with laughs, and like the movies,includes some surprisingly touching moments as well.
Goliath at Six Flags Great America, Gurnee, Illinois. The creative company that is building this new coaster has an impressive track record of delivering incredibly smooth and satisfying thrill machines. So the expectation is high for Goliath, which will boast a 180-foot, 85-degree drop and a top speed of 72mph, which will make it the world's tallest, fastest, and steepest wooden coaster.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World, Lake Buena Vista, Florida. It’s both a mildly thrilling coaster with a unique cradle(摇篮) design that allows the cars to swing back and forth and a forcing “dark ride” that takes guests into the colourful mine to see the Seven Dwarfs at work. The animated characters are particularly striking in the attraction, which is the capstone of the park’s New Fantasyland expansion.
21. How does ride fans feel after riding Banshee?
A. Wonderful and excited. B. Surprised and angry.
C. Disappointed. D. Hopeless and happy.
22. What is Goliath made of?
A. Steel. B. Wood. C. Bamboo. D. Iron.
23. How is the cradle design of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train?
A. It takes guests into the colourful mine.
B. It has an impressive track record.
C. It brings their powerful funny actions to an engaging 4-D ride film.
D. It allows the cars to swing back and forth.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. D
【导语】这是一篇应用文。短文介绍了几个好玩又刺激的过山车娱乐项目。

27. 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,李子柒的视频展示了绒花制作技艺、蜀锦、漆器等传统技艺,还呈现了耕种、手工制作等传统生活方式,这需要她有足够的耐心去学习和实践这些传统技艺。再根据第一段“On Wednesday, Chinese video infuencer Li Ziqi posted a video in which she showcased the mixture of velvet flower(绒花) making techniques and Shu brocade(蜀锦). The reactions from both Chinese and overseas netizens confirm again the widespread appeal of Chinese culture around the globe.(周三,中国视频博主李子柒发布了一则视频,展示了绒花制作技艺与蜀锦的融合。中国和海外网友的反应再次证实了中国文化在全球范围内的广泛吸引力。)”可知,她通过自己的视频在全球舞台上成功展示中国文化,让更多人了解和喜爱中国传统文化,体现了她强烈的文化责任感。故选A。
C
A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry Ⅷ a good king?” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation(二次方程式)” would leave the classroom at a loss and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself.
Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.
If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine, is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful? How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill? Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem(贝叶斯定理), a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive assumptions and very simple maths.
Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand.
28. What can we know from paragraph 1?
A. Designing math homework is easier.
B. Quadratic equation may confuse young learners.
C. Nine-year-olds enjoy history questions.
D. Postgraduates find math problems too simple.
29. What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author?
A. It covers various topics.
B. It casts light on math thoughts.
C. It satisfies maths professionals.
D. It makes sense to ordinary people.
30. How does Professor Spiegelhalter explain probability and statistics?
A. By using advanced mathematical formulas.
B. By analyzing real-life questions with simple maths.
C. By discussing complex scientific theories.
D. By conducting experiments in lecture theatres.
31. The text is probably written to ______.
A. introduce a new book on mathematics.
B. compare teaching mathematics with history.
C. explain complex mathematical theories simply.
D. persuade people to study probability and statistics.
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. B 31. A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了剑桥大学统计学教授斯皮格尔哈尔特教授的新书《不确定性的艺术》,介绍了其内容特色及价值。
28. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But “Solve this quadratic equation(二次方程式)” would leave the classroom at a loss and the lecture theatre unimpressed.(但是“解这个二次方程式”会让教室里的学生不知所措,也让讲座厅里的人无动于衷。)”可知,二次方程式可能会让年轻的学习者感到困惑。故选B。
29. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.(他的新书将吸引的不仅仅是数学家,因为它的主题是普遍的:如何分析机会、不确定性和风险。)”可知,这本书对普通人来说很有意义,这是它最大的卖点。故选D。
30. 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem(贝叶斯定理), a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive assumptions and very simple maths.(斯皮格尔哈尔特教授对这些问题的探索令人愉快。首先,他用它们来说明概率和统计是如何工作的更广泛的概念。因此,对疫苗安全性的讨论遵循贝叶斯定理,这是一种随着新证据的出现而改进对概率判断的程序。斯皮格尔哈尔特教授的方法的乐趣在于,他仅仅通过一些直观的假设和非常简单的数学就达到了这个深刻的真理。)”可知,斯皮格尔哈尔特教授通过用简单的数学分析现实生活中的问题来解释概率和统计。故选B。
31. 推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据第二段中“Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty.His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.(现在,剑桥大学统计学教授大卫·斯皮格尔哈尔特爵士在《不确定性的艺术》一书中加入了这一类别。他的新书将吸引的不仅仅是数学家,因为它的主题是普遍的:如何分析机会、不确定性和风险)”可知,本文主要是为了介绍一本关于数学的新书。故选A。
D
I know people who say they don’t watch television, and I always nod and agree. Reading requires intelligence, and television is merely entertainment, right?
I’m going to Scotland this year, and three different people told me I must watch “Outlander” before I go, which is like “Game of Thrones” for fans of romance novels. I watched the first four-hour-long episodes back to back. When I stood up from the couch I felt sick, and it wasn’t just the cookies, popcorn and peanut butter sandwiches I’d had without noticing. It was dark outside, and I felt ashamed. I had spent half a day on the couch. Research for Scotland? Not exactly.
A few days later I had a library book due: The National Book Award winner The Friend, by Sigrid Nunez. I needed to finish it, so I read the last half straight through. I was absorbed in Nunez’s New York City, worrying about the heroin’s career and her future. I finished the book with tears in my eyes and stood up feeling, well, great.
I had wasted another four hours on my couch. I hadn’t eaten as much junk food because I needed my hands free — and not sticky — so I could turn pages and return the book to the library relatively clean, but I hadn’t moved and once again it was dark outside. Why did I feel so much better and guilt-free?
All the research says reading a book is good for you. It reduces stress, promotes comprehension and imagination, relieves depression, helps you sleep and may contribute to preventing Alzheimer’s(阿尔兹海默症). The act of physically turning a page creates a momentary pause for understanding to sink in. Our brains have to work to translate the black squiggles(弯弯曲曲的线条) on the page into words and then interpret the meaning and intent(意图) of those words. When a character is described as tall with brown hair, a reader creates her own picture. TV takes all that imagination away. But there’s a lot of good TV now. I’d like to say the answer to TV versus books must be, as Aristotle said, “Moderation in all things,” though he never had a television or a computer and had to read his scrolls by candlelight. I agree that too much television is bad for you. I know I feel better if I read, but it won’t stop me from watching too: My second DVD of “Outlander” has just arrived, and as soon as I get this essay done, the rest of my day is free.
32. By “I always nod and agree”(paragraph 1), the author implies that ______ .
A. she doesn’t think highly of TV either
B. she believes those who say they don’t watch TV
C. she should be polite to get the conversation to go on
D. she is not willing to admit that she watches television
33. The phrase “back to back”(paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to “ ______ ”.
A. from morning till night B. one after another without a break
C. looking at the opposite direction D. leaning against the back of the couch
34. The author felt better after reading The Friend than watching “Outlander”, most probably because ______ .
A. she didn’t feel hungry for any snacks
B. the TV series got her to cancel her trip to Scotland

35. What can be concluded from all the research introduced in paragraph 5?
A. Reading is active while watching TV is passive.
B. Reading involves physical exercises while watching TV doesn’t.
C. Reading stimulates the brain to concentrate while watching TV doesn’t.
D. Reading is good for one’s mental health while watching TV is bad for it.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. A
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了阅读与看电视的不同体验及对人的影响。
32. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“I know people who say they don’t watch television, and I always nod and agree. Reading requires intelligence, and television is merely entertainment, right?(我知道有些人说他们不看电视,我总是点头表示同意。阅读需要智力,而电视仅仅是娱乐,对吗?)”可知,作者通过“总是点头同意”暗示自己也不看好电视。故选A。
33. 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“I watched the first four-hour-long episodes back to back. When I stood up from the couch I felt sick, and it wasn’t just the cookies, popcorn and peanut butter sandwiches I’d had without noticing. It was dark outside, and I felt ashamed.(我back to back看了第一集四小时长的剧集。当我从沙发上站起来时,我感到不舒服,这不仅仅是因为我不经意地吃了饼干、爆米花和花生酱三明治。外面很黑,我感到很惭愧)”可知,作者连续不断地看了四小时的剧集,直到天黑都没有发现。因此,“back to back”在此处的意思是“一个接一个,不间断地”。与选项B“one after another without a break(一个接一个不间断)”一致。故选B。
34. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Why did I feel so much better and guilt-free?(为什么我感觉好多了,而且没有负罪感呢?)”以及第五段中“All the research says reading a book is good for you.(所有的研究都表明读书对你有好处)”可知,作者在阅读《朋友》后感觉更好,没有负罪感,是因为她认为阅读比看电视更有价值。故选D。
35. 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Our brains have to work to translate the black squiggles(弯弯曲曲的线条) on the page into words and then interpret the meaning and intent(意图) of those words. When a character is described as tall with brown hair, a reader creates her own picture. TV takes all that imagination away.(我们的大脑必须努力将页面上的黑色曲线翻译成单词,然后解释这些单词的含义和意图。当一个角色被描述为棕色头发的高个子时,读者会自己想象出她的样子。电视把所有的想象力都带走了)”可知,从第五段介绍的所有研究中可以得出:阅读是主动的,而看电视是被动的。故选A。
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。
Picture this: you’ve just settled into your workday and pulled up that big report you need to finish, when a friend sends you a couple of celebrity videos on WeChat. 36 And then the next thing you know, an hour has gone by while that big reportsits, ignored, on your desk. So how does that happen?
To understand this, we conducted a series of studies and identified three factors: the amount of media the person has already viewed, the similarity of the media they’ve viewed, and the manner in which they viewed the media.
We found the order and types of content we consume can affect our decision to keep consuming similar content. But what drives this effect? 37 When something feels more accessible, it becomes easier to process, leading us to enjoy it more.
These results also explain why it’s so easy to get distracted by apps on social media at work. 38 They offer bite-sized content that makes it easy to quickly consume several videos in a row. They often automatically suggest similar content, and many of them even automatically start playing similar videos, reducing the potential for interruptions.
39 If you really want to watch multiple in a row, choose those that seem unrelated. You can also use a social media timer that urges you to take a break after a certain amount of time, or even just consciously remind yourself to consume different kinds of content.
So, if you’ re struggling to climb out of a rabbit hole, try to find ways to reduce the similarity, repetitiveness, and relatedness of the content you’ re consuming. 40 Once you manage to break free, you’ll be back at that big report in no time.
A. It can be difficult, but it’s not impossible.
B. To fight the pull, make an effort to just watch one video.
C. You figure you’ll just take a few minutes to watch them.
D. Accessibility refers to how familiar a given kind of content feels.
E. This will be a problem if you are kept from focusing on your work.
F. Many platforms are designed to trap viewers in a social media rabbit hole.
G. Prior research suggests the three factors increase the accessibility of similar media.

阅读下面材料:根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
After Henry delivered all the newspapers, he pedaled fast to The Gazette offices by 8: 30. The chief editor had something important to tell him. He parked his bike and bounded up two nights of stairs to the chief editor's door.
Mr. Trotta greeted him. "About those papers," he paused, "no good way to deliver bad news," Henry’s smile faded. "Were closing shop Saturday. Advertisingis down. Television is how people get their news today, Mr. Trotta shrugged, "You won't have to get up early on weekends." "No," said Henry, "but I like waking up early and meeting people on my route. It's sad People won't get their neighborhood news any more.”
As Henry rode past the familiar houses, he saw Mr Grady on his porch(门廊) holding a broom(扫把). "Mr. Grady, wait," Henry called, setting down his bike. He led Mr. Grady to a chair and took the broom. In minutes, the porch was clean. "Now, Mr, Grady, anytime you have chores(家务) call me." They sat for a while as Mr. Grady recalled how happy he’d been moving his family to 26 Maple. He sounded lonely.
A week after closing, Henry wondered if his customers missed The Gazette as much as he did. He thought of a way to find out.
He started out on his old route with a notebook. First stop: Mr, Jonas, 17 Oak. When Henry asked him about the paper, Mr. Jonas answered, "I sure liked reading the week's happenings. By the way, I have a pile of old comics from The Gazette. Think someone would want them?"
“I’ll ask around." Henry made a note in his notebook.
He stopped at Mrs. Burke's, 27 Maple. She opened the door holding two babies. Her other two kids held on toher legs. Henry stared. "You could use a babysitter." "Definitely. I meant to put an ad in The Gazette, but....Know any neighbors with experience?”
Mr Simon was next door, carrying his violin out to his car. "Hey, Henry. My band is having aconcert in the park next Friday. Tell all your friends.”
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.
As Henry made more notes, an idea started forming in his head.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Customers cheered Henry idea and helped supply the news.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
As Henry made more notes, an idea started forming in his head. Maybe he could create a news page for the neighbors. But how would he print it? He pedaled to school and explained everything to his good friends. “Let’s work it out together.” All his friends agreed to help. The next day, good news came. Jenny helped to get a second-hand color printer and Bob’s father promised to supply paper to them for free. “Perfect!” Henry said.
Customers cheered Henry's idea and helped supply the news. Miss Roberts advertised that she needed a teenager to help clean her basement. The new family who just moved in invited neighbors to a “Meet the Johnsons” party. Henry added: “Stories told by friendly gentleman at 26 Maple. Stop by to chat.” Henry typed the news, made photocopies, and delivered the first Tree Streets News on Saturday. After that, neighbors advertised giveaways, and requested books and music. Henry missed his old Gazette job, but he had launched something too. He was making news and connecting neighbors.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Henry发放宪报给各位邻居,日复一日,他好奇会不会有人和他一样在乎看报纸这件事,他询问每位邻居,每位邻居都有在报纸上刊登广告的需求,他准备为邻居出版一种报纸,找到了新的方式和邻居建立联系。
【详解】
1.段落续写:
由第一段首句内容“随着亨利记下更多笔记,一个想法开始在他脑海中形成。”可知,第一段可描写Henry计划创建一种新报纸,并将想法告诉了自己的朋友,得到了朋友的支持的经过。
由第二段首句内容“客户们都很支持Henry的想法,并帮助提供了新闻。”可知,第二段可描写Henry开始筹办报纸编辑工作,将邻居的需求刊登在报纸上,获得了成功。
2.续写线索:提出想法——告诉朋友——得到支持——开始广告刊登——受到欢迎
3.词汇激活
行为类
提出想法:come up with/form an idea
告诉:inform/tell
支持:support/cheer
刊登:advertise/put sth. on the newspaper
【点睛】
[高分句型1]Miss Roberts advertised that she needed a teenager to help clean her basement.(由连接词that引导的宾语从句作advertised的宾语)
[高分句型2]The new family who just moved in invited neighbors to a “Meet the Johnsons” party.(由关系代词who引导定语从句)
