A good old-fashioned road trip. As many states make travel rules less strict, they’re encouraging people to move around within their home state to help increase local business. A road trip in one’s vehicle allows for a sense of control and you know whose germs (细菌) are in your space. The prioritization (优先) of cleanliness Travelers generally expect a clean hotel room when they arrive, and now expectations will be higher than ever. We’re about to become concerned with cleanliness to the point that it could become the top priority of hotels, more so than comfortable beds and good service. Checking list can show whether hosts are practicing strict new clean guidelines, including a 24-hour waiting period between bookings. The new appeal of nature Travelers will be rightly nervous about crowds and anxious to avoid them. That will result in an explosion of visitors to national parks and other places where crowds are less likely to be met with. This could be the start of the golden age of camping, as people want to get outside while keeping social distance. ________ Health is at the forefront of everyone’s minds these days, and it is safe to say it’ll stay there for a long time yet. Meanwhile, people are sick of being indoors, so tourism is likely to reflect an increasing need to promote good health while getting outside. Intrepid Travel’s CEO James told The Times, “If 2020 proves to be a year we spend a lot of time indoors, 2021 will be about getting outdoors and getting active, with tours centred around things like cycling and hiking.” 36. Taking a road trip is encouraged to ________. A. replace a tiring journey by air B. prevent germs from spreading C. improve drivers’ control of the vehicle D. promote local economic development 37. What can we learn from the passage? A. Hotels should put comfort in the first place. B. Travelers should book a room 24 hours ahead. C. Camping is a good choice to avoid crowds. D. People tend to get sick after staying long indoors. 38. What is the best title for Paragraph 5? A. The rise of health tourism B. The routine of keeping fit C. The benefit of getting active D. The importance of health care 【答案】36. D 37. C 38. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了后疫情时代旅游趋势的变化，包括公路旅行的回归、清洁卫生的优先考虑、自然旅游的新吸引力以及健康旅游的兴起。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“As many states make travel rules less strict, they’re encouraging people to move around within their home state to help increase local business.”可知，许多州放宽旅行规定，鼓励人们在州内旅行，以帮助增加本地商业，故公路旅行被鼓励是为了促进当地经济发展。故选D。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Travelers will be rightly nervous about crowds and anxious to avoid them. That will result in an explosion of visitors to national parks and other places where crowds are less likely to be met with. This could be the start of the golden age of camping”可知，旅行者会对人群感到紧张并急于避开，这将导致国家公园等不易遇到人群的地方游客激增，露营是避开人群的好选择。故选C。 【38题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“Health is at the forefront of everyone’s minds… tourism is likely to reflect an increasing need to promote good health while getting outside.”可知健康是当前人们最关心的问题，旅游业可能反映出在户外活动中促进健康的需求增长，并引用Intrepid Travel CEO的话说明2021年将以户外活动（如骑行、徒步）为中心。因此，本段主题是“健康旅游的兴起”。故选A。 C “We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu (712-770). These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,” said Harvard professor Stephen Owen in Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, a BBC documentary (纪录片). Despite the fact that Du Fu is usually mentioned in the same breath as Dante and Shakespeare, he has remained largely unknown in the Western world for long. However, with the screening of the first English-language documentary featuring the poet, the days of Du Fu as China’s best-kept literary secret seem to be numbered. It is written and presented by Michael Wood, a skilled television historian who also directed other China-related documentaries such as The Story of China and The Story of China’s Reform and Opening-Up (2018). From the Yellow River to the Yangtze Gorges, and down to the forested hills of Hunan province, Wood visited a number of places such as the poet’s birthplace Gongyi in Henan province and the Tang Dynasty capital Chang’an, today’s Xi’an. Along the way, he met and talked to ordinary people, dancers and musicians, who helped to tell the fantastic story of the poet. Interviews with famous scholars specializing in Chinese literature also helped present a clearer picture of the poet’s life experiences, literary significance and his friendship with Li Bai, another great Chinese poet. Born in 712, Du Fu lived in the Tang Dynasty, a time marked by extraordinary cultural achievements. However, after a wave of civil unrest (国内骚乱), Du Fu, the former civil servant at the Tang court, was forced to become a porter, and suffered from starvation. Through ups and downs, the poet never stopped writing, pouring out his concern for his country and people as well as celebrating the simple joys of life. “Du’s poetry reflects the country’s historical events mirrored in his own spiritual journey, so he becomes a part of the emotional vocabulary of Chinese culture,” said Stephen Owen, who in 2016 finished the eight-year-long project to translate Du Fu’s 1,400 poems into English. 39. The underlined part in paragraph 2 implies that the documentary will help ________. A. create the values of poetry B. the West to know more about Du Fu C. keep the secrets in Du Fu’s poems D. Du Fu becomes one of the top 3 poets 40. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Du Fu’s colorful life experiences. B. Local people’s admiration for Du Fu. C. Famous scholars’ research findings on Du Fu. D. Michael Wood’s effort in making the documentary. 41. Which of the following can best describe Du Fu? A. Inspiring and helpful. B. Tough and responsible. C. Easy-going and careful. D. Generous and hardworking. 42. What is probably the best title for the passage? A. Du Fu’s poetry wins world’s recognition. B. Du Fu’s poems are translated into English. C. BBC documentary reflects Chinese culture. D. BBC documentary presents China’s Shakespeare. 【答案】39. B 40. D 41. B 42. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了BBC纪录片《杜甫：中国最伟大的诗人》及其对西方世界了解杜甫的推动作用，同时展现了杜甫的生平、文学成就及其在中国文化中的情感价值。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“the days of Du Fu as China’s best-kept literary secret seem to be numbered”可知，杜甫作为中国文学秘密的日子即将结束，暗示纪录片将帮助西方更多地了解杜甫。故选B。 【40题详解】 段落大意题。根据“Wood visited a number of places…who helped to tell the fantastic story of the poet”可知，Michael Wood走访多地，与普通人、学者交流，展现了他制作纪录片的努力。故选D。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Through ups and downs, the poet never stopped writing, pouring out his concern for his country and people”可知，杜甫在困境中坚持写作，体现其坚韧；对国家人民的关切体现其责任感。故选B。 【42题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文围绕BBC纪录片介绍杜甫展开，将其与中国文化联系。根据“Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet”及文中将杜甫与莎士比亚并列的描述可知，标题需突出“中国的莎士比亚”这一核心，D选项“BBC纪录片呈现了中国的莎士比亚”符合题意。故选D。 D In times of distress, a friend would always suggest going for a walk. “Are you overwhelmed by your work? Take a stroll (散步) around the neighborhood.” Comments like this are often said with nothing but the best of intentions, but they used to make me angry as much as being told to drink more water. I did not understand how these things were going to help. Three years ago, I hit a low point. Once I saw a pair of empty eyes looking at me through the mirror, I knew I was at my breaking point (极限). So, I took the advice I fought so hard to ignore. I went for a walk—with the hope that it would somehow change my life. I embraced (拥抱) the fresh air everyone seemed to be talking about. But it did nothing. I was just as sad as I was before. I went on a walk every single day for more than a month. Some days I could barely make it outside, but I managed to push through. I took a picture every time I went. I think I wanted to document (记录) myself trying to make an effort. One day the unbelievable happened. I found myself smiling. I realized I had patiently waited all morning to go on this walk. What I once hated had become the best part of my day. I found myself longing to (渴望) be outside. I never had a destination in mind. I just danced along the paths, stopped to look at the beautiful blue skies and listened to music. I’m glad I took pictures because there was a noticeable difference in my face. I slowly started to look less tired and defeated. I don’t know why I refused to go on that walk for so long. I guess I didn’t want to believe that something small and seemingly meaningless could actually have an effect on my physical and mental well-being. If you’re having a bad day, a bad month, a bad year or even a bad life, you should try going for a walk. Sometimes, all we need to do is try. 43. Why did the author decide to go for a walk three years ago? A. Her friend encouraged her. B. She wanted to challenge herself. C. She was eager to get close to nature. D. Her hopelessness drove her to try. 44. What happened after the author started to go for a walk? A. She felt cheered up after the first week. B. She always started with a destination in mind. C. She was inspired by the pictures she took of herself. D. She stopped for a while due to lack of progress. 45. What does the author advise us to do? A. Stay positive when bad things happen. B. Care about our mental well-being. C. Take other people’s suggestions seriously. D. Go for a walk when feeling down. 【答案】43. D 44. C 45.

Don’t run away. Yes, I know I am a roach. So, what’s wrong with that? You are speaking to the most successful species on the planet, you know! We’ve been around for 350 million years! So what’s the secret of our success? Sure, we’ve had plenty of enemies. If you’re small and full of protein (蛋白质), everything wants to eat you. So what did we do? We got quick, is what. We learned to hide, is what. We can squeeze so flat that we can fit through a gap no bigger than a coin. Really! I dare you, try it. And we never skip a meal! What do we eat? What have you got? Rotting leaves, garbage glue, paper, leather... and if you like to eat dead things, I tell you, the world is your fridge! But just don’t offer me a cucumber or plastics! Once humans came along, we went everywhere humans went. In ships, on planes, in camel packs across the desert. Roach road trip! We even followed them to space! That’s Uncle Anton. He hid on board the Apollo capsule——he was so mad when they just came right back to earth. You can’t have too many roaches, I say. Now there are 4,000 species of us: Asian, American, German... hope you get to meet them all someday. Some of the family get pretty strange. That’s Reginald. He thinks if he pretends to be a firefly, birds won’t eat him. That’s tough old Aunt Elo. She worked for some scientists trying to find out ways to get rid of us... ha! Poison, radiation, heat, cold... whatever they throw at us, we just get tougher. Bring it on! Aw, look, that’s me just after my 15 brothers and sisters and I hatched (孵化) out from egg case. Yeah. I look pretty much the same. That’s another roach wonder—we skip the larva stage (幼虫期). Our eggs hatch to roll! Still pretty cute, though. Yep, that’s how we got to be the most successful species (物种) on the planet! 46. What may be helpful to a roach’s success? ①being flexible ②running like wind ③being full of protein ④raising many babies A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②④ 47. According to Paragraph 5, who is Uncle Anton? A. A hero. B. A spaceman. C. A roach. D. A traveler. 48. What can we learn about roaches from the article? A. They can almost roll when they are brought to the world. B. Their number is coming down thanks to scientists’ efforts. C. Their home is usually equipped with a fridge full of foods. D. They are getting along quite well with other species on the planet. 49. What is the tone (基调) of the passage? A. Pitiful. B. Anxious. C. Serious. D. Humorous. 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. A 49. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，以幽默的口吻讲述了蟑螂作为地球上最成功物种的生存策略和特点。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据“We got quick, is what. We learned to hide, is what. We can squeeze so flat…”对应①灵活性；根据“We got quick”对应②快速奔跑；根据“15 brothers and sisters…hatched out from egg case”对应④繁殖能力强。而③“富含蛋白质”是蟑螂被天敌捕食的原因，非成功因素。故选D。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Uncle Anton…He hid on board the Apollo capsule”可知，Anton是藏在阿波罗飞船上的蟑螂。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Our eggs hatch to roll!”可知，蟑螂出生后就能翻动。A项“almost roll”是对原文的合理概括。B项“数量减少”与原文“科学家无法消灭我们”矛盾；C项“冰箱”是比喻；D项“与其他物种相处”未提及。故选A。 【49题详解】 观点态度题。全文通过拟人化手法（如蟑螂自称“I”、吐槽太空旅行失败、假装萤火虫等）和夸张表达（如“世界是你的冰箱”），基调轻松幽默。故选D。 四、还原句子（共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分） Color is fundamental (基础的) in home design—something you’ll always have in every room. A grasp of how to manage color in your spaces is one of the first steps to creating rooms you’ll love to live in. Do you want a room that’s full of life? Professional? Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day? ____50____, color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel. Over the years, there have been a number of different skills to help designers achieve this important point. ____51____, they can get a little complex (复杂). But good news is that there’re really only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home: the small ones, the medium ones, and the large ones. ____52____. They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows, mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms. Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa, small color choices bring with them the important benefit of being easily changeable. Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas, dinner tables or bookshelves. Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways. They need a bigger commitment than smaller ones, and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space. The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls, ceilings, and floors. Whether you’re looking at wallpaper or paint, the time, effort and relative cost put into it are important. ____53____. A. Although all of them are useful B. Whatever you’re looking for C. If you’re experimenting with a color D. Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar with E. It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color pieces F.

A good old-fashioned road trip. As many states make travel rules less strict, they’re encouraging people to move around within their home state to help increase local business. A road trip in one’s vehicle allows for a sense of control and you know whose germs (细菌) are in your space. The prioritization (优先) of cleanliness Travelers generally expect a clean hotel room when they arrive, and now expectations will be higher than ever. We’re about to become concerned with cleanliness to the point that it could become the top priority of hotels, more so than comfortable beds and good service. Checking list can show whether hosts are practicing strict new clean guidelines, including a 24-hour waiting period between bookings. The new appeal of nature Travelers will be rightly nervous about crowds and anxious to avoid them. That will result in an explosion of visitors to national parks and other places where crowds are less likely to be met with. This could be the start of the golden age of camping, as people want to get outside while keeping social distance. ________ Health is at the forefront of everyone’s minds these days, and it is safe to say it’ll stay there for a long time yet. Meanwhile, people are sick of being indoors, so tourism is likely to reflect an increasing need to promote good health while getting outside. Intrepid Travel’s CEO James told The Times, “If 2020 proves to be a year we spend a lot of time indoors, 2021 will be about getting outdoors and getting active, with tours centred around things like cycling and hiking.” 36. Taking a road trip is encouraged to ________. A. replace a tiring journey by air B. prevent germs from spreading C. improve drivers’ control of the vehicle D. promote local economic development 37. What can we learn from the passage? A. Hotels should put comfort in the first place. B. Travelers should book a room 24 hours ahead. C. Camping is a good choice to avoid crowds. D. People tend to get sick after staying long indoors. 38. What is the best title for Paragraph 5? A. The rise of health tourism B. The routine of keeping fit C. The benefit of getting active D. The importance of health care C “We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu (712-770). These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,” said Harvard professor Stephen Owen in Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, a BBC documentary (纪录片). Despite the fact that Du Fu is usually mentioned in the same breath as Dante and Shakespeare, he has remained largely unknown in the Western world for long. However, with the screening of the first English-language documentary featuring the poet, the days of Du Fu as China’s best-kept literary secret seem to be numbered. It is written and presented by Michael Wood, a skilled television historian who also directed other China-related documentaries such as The Story of China and The Story of China’s Reform and Opening-Up (2018). From the Yellow River to the Yangtze Gorges, and down to the forested hills of Hunan province, Wood visited a number of places such as the poet’s birthplace Gongyi in Henan province and the Tang Dynasty capital Chang’an, today’s Xi’an. Along the way, he met and talked to ordinary people, dancers and musicians, who helped to tell the fantastic story of the poet. Interviews with famous scholars specializing in Chinese literature also helped present a clearer picture of the poet’s life experiences, literary significance and his friendship with Li Bai, another great Chinese poet. Born in 712, Du Fu lived in the Tang Dynasty, a time marked by extraordinary cultural achievements. However, after a wave of civil unrest (国内骚乱), Du Fu, the former civil servant at the Tang court, was forced to become a porter, and suffered from starvation. Through ups and downs, the poet never stopped writing, pouring out his concern for his country and people as well as celebrating the simple joys of life. “Du’s poetry reflects the country’s historical events mirrored in his own spiritual journey, so he becomes a part of the emotional vocabulary of Chinese culture,” said Stephen Owen, who in 2016 finished the eight-year-long project to translate Du Fu’s 1,400 poems into English. 39. The underlined part in paragraph 2 implies that the documentary will help ________. A. create the values of poetry B. the West to know more about Du Fu C keep the secrets in Du Fu’s poems D. Du Fu becomes one of the top 3 poets 40. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Du Fu’s colorful life experiences. B. Local people’s admiration for Du Fu. C. Famous scholars’ research findings on Du Fu. D. Michael Wood’s effort in making the documentary. 41. Which of the following can best describe Du Fu? A. Inspiring and helpful. B. Tough and responsible. C. Easy-going and careful. D. Generous and hardworking. 42. What is probably the best title for the passage? A Du Fu’s poetry wins world’s recognition. B. Du Fu’s poems are translated into English. C. BBC documentary reflects Chinese culture. D. BBC documentary presents China’s Shakespeare. D In times of distress, a friend would always suggest going for a walk. “Are you overwhelmed by your work? Take a stroll (散步) around the neighborhood.” Comments like this are often said with nothing but the best of intentions, but they used to make me angry as much as being told to drink more water. I did not understand how these things were going to help. Three years ago, I hit a low point. Once I saw a pair of empty eyes looking at me through the mirror, I knew I was at my breaking point (极限). So, I took the advice I fought so hard to ignore. I went for a walk—with the hope that it would somehow change my life. I embraced (拥抱) the fresh air everyone seemed to be talking about. But it did nothing. I was just as sad as I was before. I went on a walk every single day for more than a month. Some days I could barely make it outside, but I managed to push through. I took a picture every time I went. I think I wanted to document (记录) myself trying to make an effort. One day, the unbelievable happened. I found myself smiling. I realized I had patiently waited all morning to go on this walk. What I once hated had become the best part of my day. I found myself longing to (渴望) be outside. I never had a destination in mind. I just danced along the paths, stopped to look at the beautiful blue skies and listened to music. I’m glad I took pictures because there was a noticeable difference in my face. I slowly started to look less tired and defeated. I don’t know why I refused to go on that walk for so long. I guess I didn’t want to believe that something small and seemingly meaningless could actually have an effect on my physical and mental well-being.

So, what’s wrong with that? You are speaking to the most successful species on the planet, you know! We’ve been around for 350 million years! So what’s the secret of our success? Sure, we’ve had plenty of enemies. If you’re small and full of protein (蛋白质), everything wants to eat you. So what did we do? We got quick, is what. We learned to hide, is what. We can squeeze so flat that we can fit through a gap no bigger than a coin. Really! I dare you, try it. And we never skip a meal! What do we eat? What have you got? Rotting leaves, garbage glue, paper, leather... and if you like to eat dead things, I tell you, the world is your fridge! But just don’t offer me a cucumber or plastics! Once humans came along, we went everywhere humans went. In ships, on planes, in camel packs across the desert. Roach road trip! We even followed them to space! That’s Uncle Anton. He hid on board the Apollo capsule——he was so mad when they just came right back to earth. You can’t have too many roaches, I say. Now there are 4,000 species of us: Asian, American, German... hope you get to meet them all someday. Some of the family get pretty strange. That’s Reginald. He thinks if he pretends to be a firefly, birds won’t eat him. That’s tough old Aunt Elo. She worked for some scientists trying to find out ways to get rid of us... ha! Poison, radiation, heat, cold... whatever they throw at us, we just get tougher. Bring it on! Aw, look, that’s me just after my 15 brothers and sisters and I hatched (孵化) out from egg case. Yeah. I look pretty much the same. That’s another roach wonder—we skip the larva stage (幼虫期). Our eggs hatch to roll! Still pretty cute, though. Yep, that’s how we got to be the most successful species (物种) on the planet! 46.
