The moon had gone behind a cloud and there weren’t many stars in the sky. It was a dark night. I saw bright light in my neighbor’s kitchen. I thought he was having a midnight snack so I went back to my bed. Soon, there was a burning smell in the air and I thought something was wrong. At once, I jumped out of bed and went downstairs to have a look. I saw a fire coming out of my neighbor’s kitchen. I shouted “Fire!” But there was no one nearby to hear my shouts for help. I rushed into my house, called the Fire Department and went back to my neighbor’s house. I rang the doorbell, knocked at the door and called out my neighbor’s name, but there was no answer, I managed to break into the house and saved a cat and a rabbit. I tried to pour water through the kitchen window but it was no use, the fire is too strong. Luckily, a fire engine arrived and the firemen put out the fire. They arrived in time as the fire was going on to the other rooms in the house. When my neighbor came back, he was sad because his kitchen was burnt down, but he thanked me for calling the Fire Department and for saving his pets. He wanted to give me some money but I did not accept it. Weeks later, my neighbor invited me to his new kitchen and there he gave me a present that he had specially ordered from a store.

Swimming across the English Channel is no easy feat. In addition to the strong ocean currents, swimmers also have to endure extremely cold temperatures. However, don’t tell that to Sarah Thomas. The 37-year-old American recently became the first person ever to swim across it not once but four times non-stop!
“I just can’t believe I did it,” Thomas told the BBC after the swim. “I’m really just pretty numb. There was a lot of people on the beach to meet me and wish me well, and it was really nice of them, but I feel just mostly stunned.”
What makes Thomas’s achievement even more remarkable is that just a year ago, in 2018, she was undergoing treatment for breast cancer. She said that fighting the strong currents was hard. But even worse was “dealing with the saltwater ... it really hurts your throat, your mouth and your tongue”, she said. “I got stung (蜇) in the face by a jellyfish. The water wasn’t as cold as I thought it might be, but it was still very cold.”
Thomas’s record-breaking journey began just past midnight on Sunday, September 15, 2019. when she dove into the waters off the shore of Dover, England. Though the swim was initially meant to be about 80 miles. Strong currents forced the athlete to change course several times, lengthening the total distance by about 50 miles. By the time she appeared from the water at 6:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday, September 17, 2019, she had been in the water for 54 hours and 13 minutes and swum a total of 133 miles! Even more impressive, Thomas achieved the astonishing feat in a regular swimsuit. Her only aids were swim goggles, one cap, nose clip, and earplugs.
This is not the first time Thomas has swum across the English Channel. She has done it twice before, in 2012 and 2016. She told filmmaker Jon Washer, who is making a documentary about her swim, “As I was doing 20-mile swims. it occurred to me that I could do more and I wanted to see what that more was.” The swimmer, who is being praised “an absolute legend” by the CS&PF, has indeed shown the world what she is capable of. However, we have a feeling she is not done yet!
46. By mentioning “Swimming across the English Channel is no easy feat”, the writer aims to ________.
A. warn people not to swim across it
B. arouse people’s interest in swimming
C. set off Sarah Thomas’s achievements
D. stress the difficulties swimmers have to conquer
47. What does the underlined word “stunned” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Surprised. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Regretful.
48. What troubled Thomas most during swimming?
A. Strong currents. B. Sea water.
C. Jellyfish. D. Water temperature.
49. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on?
A. The long distance she covered.
B. The ordinary equipment she possessed.
C. The record-breaking time she stayed in water.
D. The impressive determination she displayed.
50. What can we infer from the last Paragraph?
A. A documentary is being made about her achievements.
B. She has swum across the Channel more than once.
C. She will probably plan to swim the Channel in the future.
D. She is capable of doing everything she wants to achieve.
C
The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30 p. m. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.
By 9:45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.
Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30 — 8:30 p. m. means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00 p. m. or 8:30 p. m. means possible dinner, but 9:30 p. m. and any time there after means no food, eat before hand (提前), roll up (到场) late.
But this is not always the case, If asked to a students’ party at 6:30 p. m., it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all (如果真是这样), and no one cares. Being the first to arrive — looking eager — is social death. When my mother, is asked to a party for 6:30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.
The accepted custom at present is confusing (令人费解的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element (成分) of surprise.
51. The underlined words “off their heads”probably mean ________.
A. tired B. crazy C. curious D. hopeless
52. Jane and David’s story is used to show that ________.
A. party-govers usually get hungry at parties
B. party invitations can be confusing
C. people should ask for food at parties
D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull
53. For some young people, arriving on time for a students’ party will probably be considered ________.
A. very difficult
B. particularly thoughtful
C. friendly and polite
D. socially unacceptable
54. According to the writer, people in their late thirties ________.
A. are likely to arrive late for a party
B. care little about the party time
C. haven’t really grown up yet
D. like surprises at parties
55. What is the general idea of the text?
A. It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served.
B 1t’s wise to eat something before going to a party.
C. It’s important to follow social rules of party-going.
D. It’s necessary to read invitations carefully.
V.语法填空(10 小题,共 15 分)

The adobe dwellings (土坯房) ____56____ (build) by the Pueblo Indians of the American Southwest are admired by even ____57____ most modern of architects and engineers. In addition to their simple beauty, what makes the adobe dwellings admirable is their ____58____ (able) to “air condition” a house without ____59____ (use) electric equipment.

Swimming across the English Channel is no easy feat. In addition to the strong ocean currents, swimmers also have to endure extremely cold temperatures. However, don’t tell that to Sarah Thomas. The 37-year-old American recently became the first person ever to swim across it not once but four times non-stop!
“I just can’t believe I did it,” Thomas told the BBC after the swim. “I’m really just pretty numb. There was a lot of people on the beach to meet me and wish me well, and it was really nice of them, but I feel just mostly stunned.”
What makes Thomas’s achievement even more remarkable is that just a year ago in 2018, she was undergoing treatment for breast cancer. She said that fighting the strong currents was hard. But even worse was “dealing with the saltwater ... it really hurts your throat, your mouth and your tongue”, she said. “I got stung (蜇) in the face by a jellyfish. The water wasn’t as cold as I thought it might be, but it was still very cold.”
Thomas’s record-breaking journey began just past midnight on Sunday, September 15, 2019. when she dove into the waters off the shore of Dover, England. Though the swim was initially meant to be about 80 miles. Strong currents forced the athlete to change course several times, lengthening the total distance by about 50 miles. By the time she appeared from the water at 6:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday, September 17, 2019, she had been in the water for 54 hours and 13 minutes and swum a total of 133 miles! Even more impressive, Thomas achieved the astonishing feat in a regular swimsuit. Her only aids were swim goggles, one cap, nose clip, and earplugs.
This is not the first time Thomas has swum across the English Channel. She has done it twice before, in 2012 and 2016. She told filmmaker Jon Washer, who is making a documentary about her swim, “As I was doing 20-mile swims. it occurred to me that I could do more and I wanted to see what that more was.” The swimmer, who is being praised “an absolute legend” by the CS&PF, has indeed shown the world what she is capable of. However, we have a feeling she is not done yet!
46. By mentioning “Swimming across the English Channel is no easy feat”, the writer aims to ________.
A. warn people not to swim across it
B. arouse people’s interest in swimming
C. set off Sarah Thomas’s achievements
D. stress the difficulties swimmers have to conquer
47. What does the underlined word “stunned” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Surprised. B. Satisfied. C. Doubtful. D. Regretful.
48. What troubled Thomas most during swimming?
A. Strong currents. B. Sea water.
C. Jellyfish. D. Water temperature.
49. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on?
A. The long distance she covered.
B. The ordinary equipment she possessed.
C. The record-breaking time she stayed in water.
D. The impressive determination she displayed.
50. What can we infer from the last Paragraph?
A. A documentary is being made about her achievements.
B. She has swum across the Channel more than once.
C. She will probably plan to swim the Channel in the future.
D. She is capable of doing everything she wants to achieve.
【答案】46. C 47. A 48. B 49. D 50. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了37岁的美国人Thomas四次游过英吉利海峡的故事。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“However, don’t tell that to Sarah Thomas. The 37-year-old American recently became the first person ever to swim across it not once but four times non-stop! (然而,不要告诉莎拉·托马斯这件事。这位37岁的美国人最近成了第一个游过它的人,而且不是一次,是四次!)”可知,前文提到游过英吉利海峡不容易,是为了引出莎拉·托马斯的成绩。故选C。
【47题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“‘I just can’t believe I did it,’ Thomas told the BBC after the swim. (‘我简直不敢相信我做到了,’托马斯在游泳后告诉BBC。)”和“I’m really just pretty numb. (我真的很麻木。)”可知,托马斯简直不相信自己做到了,相当麻木,由此可推断出,托马斯感到很吃惊,划线词“stunned”表示“吃惊的”,与Surprised“惊讶的,诧异的”意思一致。故选A。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“But even worse was ‘dealing with the saltwater ... it really hurts your throat, your mouth and your tongue’, she said. (但更糟糕的是‘对付海水……它真的会伤到你的喉咙、嘴巴和舌头’,她说。)”可知,托马斯说最困扰她的是要对付海水,海水会伤害喉咙,嘴和舌头。故选B。
【49题详解】
主旨大意题。通读第四段可知,尽管最初的游泳距离大约为80英里,但强流迫使托马斯多次改变航向,使总距离延长了约50英里,并且在辅助设备不充足的情况下,托马斯依然取得了惊人的成绩,因此第四段主要讲述了她表现出了令人印象深刻的决心。故选D。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As I was doing 20-mile swims. it occurred to me that I could do more and Iwanted to see what that more was. (当我在游20英里的时候。我突然想到我可以做得更多,我想看看那是什么。)”可知,当托马斯进行20英里游泳时,她想她能做到更多,所以她将来可能会计划游过英吉利海峡。故选C。
C
The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30 p. m. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.
By 9:45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.
Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30 — 8:30 p. m. means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00 p. m. or 8:30 p. m. means possible dinner, but 9:30 p. m. and any time there after means no food, eat before hand (提前), roll up (到场) late.
But this is not always the case, If asked to a students’ party at 6:30 p. m., it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all (如果真是这样), and no one cares. Being the first to arrive — looking eager — is social death. When my mother, is asked to a party for 6:30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.
The accepted custom at present is confusing (令人费解的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element (成分) of surprise.
51. The underlined words “off their heads”probably mean ________.
A. tired B. crazy C. curious D. hopeless
52. Jane and David’s story is used to show that ________.
A. party-govers usually get hungry at parties
B. party invitations can be confusing
C. people should ask for food at parties
D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull
53. For some young people, arriving on time for a students’ party will probably be considered ________.
A. very difficult
B. particularly thoughtful
C. friendly and polite
D. socially unacceptable
54. According to the writer, people in their late thirties ________.
A. are likely to arrive late for a party
B. care little about the party time
C. haven’t really grown up yet
D. like surprises at parties
55. What is the general idea of the text?
A. It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served.
B. 1t’s wise to eat something before going to a party.
C. It’s important to follow social rules of party-going.
D. It’s necessary to read invitations carefully.
【答案】51. B 52. B 53. D 54. A 55. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了不同年龄段的人对于派对邀请时间的理解不同,以及由此产生的困惑和社交习俗。
【51题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. (到了11点,仍然没有吃的,每个人都完全昏了头。)”可知,到11点,仍然没有食物,每个人都变得非常疯狂。由此可推测“off their heads”意为“疯狂的”,与“crazy”意思相同。故选B。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. (他们的经验表明,印刷邀请函上的文字需要更清晰。每个人阅读和理解邀请函的方式都不一样。)”可知,Jane和David的故事被用来表明派对邀请可能会令人困惑。故选B。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“If asked to a students’ party at 6:30 p. m., it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all (如果真是这样), and no one cares. Being the first to arrive — looking eager — is social death. (如果被邀请参加晚上6:30的学生聚会,客人在午夜之前不会出现是很正常的,如果有的话,也没有人会在意。第一个到达——看起来很急切——是社交上的死亡。)”可知,对于一些年轻人来说,准时参加学生聚会可能会被认为是不被社会接受的。故选D。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time. (我的年龄层(30多岁)介于两者之间,但因为我们仍然认为自己很年轻,所以我们可能更接近学生时期,而不是成年人时期。)”可知,作者认为三十多岁的人可能会迟到。故选A。
【55题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The accepted custom at present is confusing (令人费解的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element (成分) of surprise. (目前公认的习俗令人困惑,有时令人讨厌,这通常意味着你可能会饿着肚子回家,但它确实给各方带来了宝贵的惊喜。)”可知,文章主要讲述了不同年龄段的人对于派对邀请时间的理解不同,以及由此产生的困惑和社交习俗。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了普韦布洛村落的印第安人的神奇土坯房以及其自动调温的过程和原理。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:美国西南部普韦布洛印第安人建造的土坯房,即使是最现代的建筑师和工程师也很欣赏。分析句子可知,“are admired”是句子的谓语部分,空处动词build要作非谓语,与其逻辑主语The adobe dwellings之间是被动关系,因此应用过去分词built作后置定语。故填built。
【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意:美国西南部普韦布洛印第安人建造的土坯房,即使是最现代的建筑师和工程师也很欣赏。most modern是形容词最高级,前面没有其他修饰或限定的内容,因此应是用定冠词the。故填the。
【58题详解】
考查名词。句意:除了它们简单的美丽之外,土坯房令人钦佩的是它们能够在不使用电气设备的情况下“调节”房屋。根据空前形容词性物主代词“their”可知,空处应补充名词,able的名词形式是ability,且系动词使用的is,因此ability使用单数。故填ability。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:除了它们简单的美丽之外,土坯房令人钦佩的是它们能够在不使用电气设备的情况下“调节”房屋。介词“without”后应接动名词作宾语,use的动名词形式是using。故填using。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意:土坯制成的墙在炎热的日子吸收太阳的热量,在凉爽的夜晚缓慢地散发热量,从而使房子变暖。分析句子可知,空处需要补充副词作状语,修饰动词短语“give out”,slow的副词形式是slowly。故填slowly。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:当新的一天开始时,墙壁已经释放了热量,现在已经足够冷,可以在炎热的日子里为房子降温;与此同时,他们再次为晚上做准备。“be+形容词+enough+to do sth.”结构,表示“足够……,而能够做某事”。故填to cool。
【62题详解】
考查介词。句意:当新的一天开始时,墙壁已经释放了热量,现在已经足够冷,可以在炎热的日子里为房子降温;与此同时,他们再次为晚上做准备。“at the same time”是固定搭配,意为“同时”。故填at。
【63题详解】
考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:这样的循环日复一日地进行着:墙壁在白天变暖,在晚上变冷,因此总是及时地抵消外部温度。整篇文章均使用的一般现在时,且主语“This cycle”是第三人称单数,谓语动词go应用三单形式goes。故填goes。
【64题详解】
考查形容词。句意:作为天生的建筑师,普韦布洛印第安人准确地计算出在大多数日子里,土坯墙需要多厚才能使循环正常运行。空后“architects”是名词,空处应补充形容词作定语,nature的形容词形式是natural。故填natural。
【65题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:作为天生的建筑师,普韦布洛印第安人准确地计算出在大多数日子里,土坯墙需要多厚才能使循环正常运行。动词短语“figured out”后跟宾语从句,此处又修饰形容词“thick”,故应用how来引导该从句。故填how。

【详解】考查动词短语和一般现在时。句意:千里之行始于足下。分析句子可知,这是一句谚语,需用一般现在时。根据汉语提示,空处应用“begin with a single step”,句子主语为“A journey of a thousand miles”,名词短语作主语,所以谓语动词需与单数主语journey保持主谓一致,用第三人称单数形式begins。故填begins with a single step。
67. I think ________ (她适合这份工作). (汉语提示填空)
【答案】she is suitable for the job
【解析】
【详解】考查宾语从句以及动词短语。句意:我认为她适合这份工作。根据think可知,后接宾语从句,从句要用陈述语序;适合……: be suitable for...;她:she,作主语;对应的be 动词用is;这份工作:the job,作宾语。故填she is suitable for the job。
68. ________ (值得称赞的是), Tom successfully attracted her attention. (汉语提示填空)
【答案】To his credit
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语。句意:值得称赞的是,汤姆成功地吸引了她的注意。根据汉语提示,空处应用to one’s credit,主语是Tom,所以此处one’s用his,不定式短语作状语;位于句首首字母大写。故填To his credit。
69. I want to ________ (表达诚挚的祝贺) on your success. (汉语提示填空)
【答案】express my sincere congratulations
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语。句意:我对你的成功表达诚挚的祝贺。“表达”是动词express;“诚挚的”是形容词sincere;“祝贺”是名词“congratulations”;want to后接动词原形,表达的是主语“我”的祝贺,因此名词congratulations前使用形容词性物主代词my作定语。故填express my sincere congratulations。
70. I do some voluntary work ________ (在当地的医院). (汉语提示填空)
【答案】at the local hospital
【解析】
【详解】考查介词短语。句意:我在当地的医院做一些志愿工作。根据“在……(小地点,如医院、商店等)”常用介词at;当地的: local,形容词作定语;医院:hospital,所以组合起来是at the local hospital,在句子中作地点状语。故填at the local hospital。
