Starting in March, black-necked cranes will fly back to Qinghai. There are lakes and marshes (沼泽), perfect for them to live in. Year after year, black-necked cranes may fly to other places, but they always come back to the plateau areas. Their life is difficult, because they don’t have enough food and the weather changes very often. Black-necked cranes have a very small population. They are under first-class state protection in China. Local people treat the birds with love. In local tradition, they are a symbol of good luck, so they are very popular.

The value of telecommuting market is expected to reach about 44.8 billion yuan by the end of the year, about 7.5 times its size in 2017. DingTalk, the telecommuting tool developed by Alibaba, has drawn 300 million personal users and more than 15 million corporate users. Most importantly, over 10 million companies joined it after the pandemic began. It also deployed more than 100,000 new cloud servers in Alibaba Cloud, the cloud computing arm of Alibaba, to support online classes for 130 million students. Like Alibaba, other Chinese Internet companies including Tencent have also offered rapid and convenient telecommuting tools. “Working at home saves me two hours in going to and from work each day, so I hope this will become a usual way of working,” said Ma Chen, a staff of a state-owned enterprise from Beijing. While the Chinese government encourages the development of these industries, new technologies, including 5G and artificial intelligence (AI), will make telecommuting more convenient and popular. It is very true that telecommuting has made a great difference to school education. Besides, in the field of business, telecommuting can help those small companies and businesses cut down the operational costs.

Success belongs to those who are willing to try their best to do what they have to do. Here are some useful ways for you if you want to be a success. Desire. Desire is the strong wish to a achieve a goal. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting. Show up. 70% of success in life is showing up. Showing up doesn’t guarantee (保证) success, but if you don’t show up, you will not succeed. Fail. To have success, you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed. Work harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success. Enjoy the journey. Success is a journey, not a destination (终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey. Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change, you will change, you will succeed. 22．Which of the following is NOT mentioned (提及) in achieving success? A．Good education. B．Working hard. C．Strong desire. D．Enjoying failure. 23．What does the writer really mean by saying “Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”? A．It’s not easy for people to develop their health. B．Keeping working harder is necessary if you want to be successful. C．You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life. D．Most people don’t want to spend too much time running. 24．What does the writer mostly want to tell us in the fourth paragraph? A．Failure is the mother of success. B．Many hands make light work. C．Every dog has its day. D．Actions speak louder than words. 25．Which of the following is TRUE about success from the passage? A．If you want to succeed, you should have special talents. B．If you want to succeed, you’d better not show up. C．Success means the enjoyment of your gain or loss on the journey. D．Success is about doing what the common person can’t do. 【答案】22．A 23．B 24．A 25．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了成功路上的关键五步：欲望、展示、失败、更努力地工作和享受过程。 22．推理判断题。本篇从“Desire ... Show up ... Fail ... Work harder ... Enjoy the journey”等几个方面陈述如何取得成功，没有提到好的教育。故选A。 23．句意猜测题。根据“Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”可知每个人都跑，但每个人都不愿意每天跑一个小时，结合“Work harder.”可知，其言下之意是，当你追求成功时，不断努力工作是必要的。故选B。 24．推理判断题。根据“Fail. To have success, you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.”可知，第四自然段主要告诉我们：失败乃成功之母。故选A。 25．推理判断题。根据“So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.”和“Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey.”可知，要享受成功路上的得与失，所以C表述正确。故选C。 第三部分 信息还原(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness.

B Yushu, Qinghai Province, is one of the habitats for black-necked cranes. Cranes have very long necks and their necks are black. That’s why they are called black-necked cranes. Cranes travel very far every year. Cranes spend about 5 months in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (高原). Starting in March, black-necked cranes will fly back to Qinghai. There are lakes and marshes (沼泽), perfect for them to live in. Year after year, black-necked cranes may fly to other places, but they always come back to the plateau areas. Their life is difficult, because they don’t have enough food and the weather changes very often. Black-necked cranes have a very small population. They are under first-class state protection in China. Local people treat the birds with love. In local tradition, they are a symbol of good luck, so they are very popular.

DingTalk, the telecommuting tool developed by Alibaba, has drawn 300 million personal users and more than 15 million corporate users. Most importantly, over 10 million companies joined it after the pandemic began. It also deployed more than 100,000 new cloud servers in Alibaba Cloud, the cloud computing arm of Alibaba, to support online classes for 130 million students. Like Alibaba, other Chinese Internet companies including Tencent have also offered rapid and convenient telecommuting tools. “Working at home saves me two hours in going to and from work each day, so I hope this will become a usual way of working,” said Ma Chen, a staff of a state-owned enterprise from Beijing. While the Chinese government encourages the development of these industries, new technologies, including 5G and artificial intelligence (AI), will make telecommuting more convenient and popular. It is very true that telecommuting has made a great difference to school education. Besides, in the field of business, telecommuting can help those small companies and businesses cut down the operational costs. The joint (结合) of the online and the offline could become a new trend in the future. 18．How much was the value of the telecommuting market in 2017? A．About 6 billion yuan. B．About 7.5 billion yuan.

Here are some useful ways for you if you want to be a success. Desire. Desire is the strong wish to a achieve a goal. Before you can run with desire, your goal must be plain, clear, and it must also be exciting. Show up. 70% of success in life is showing up. Showing up doesn’t guarantee (保证) success, but if you don’t show up, you will not succeed. Fail. To have success, you have to do things the right way, but often the only way to do something right is to first fail at it. So welcome failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed. Work harder. Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day. Success is not about doing what the common person can’t do. It’s about doing what the common person is unwilling to do. And on a deeper level, it’s about creating habits that the common person is unwilling to create. It’s the habit of doing things with excellence that causes success. Enjoy the journey. Success is a journey, not a destination (终点). Success is not a certain car or a certain house or a certain happy marriage. Success is the enjoyment of the journey. You have to enjoy the journey. Someone once said, “Unless you change how you are, you will always have what you’ve got.” You have to change, you will change, you will succeed. 22．Which of the following is NOT mentioned (提及) in achieving success? A．Good education. B．Working hard. C．Strong desire. D．Enjoying failure. 23．What does the writer really mean by saying “Everyone runs, but everyone is not willing to run for an hour every day.”? A．It’s not easy for people to develop their health. B．Keeping working harder is necessary if you want to be successful. C．You are sure to meet with some difficulty in your life. D．Most people don’t want to spend too much time running. 24．What does the writer mostly want to tell us in the fourth paragraph? A．Failure is the mother of success. B．Many hands make light work. C．Every dog has its day. D．Actions speak louder than words. 25．Which of the following is TRUE about success from the passage? A．If you want to succeed, you should have special talents. B．If you want to succeed, you’d better not show up. C．Success means the enjoyment of your gain or loss on the journey. D．Success is about doing what the common person can’t do. 第三部分 信息还原(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness.

When you talk about “screen time”, do you know the screens have an effect (影响) on you, especially (尤其) on 44 (you) eyes? In fact, spending a lot of time 45 (look) at a screen isn’t good for you. But if you have to use a computer for work, what can you do to stay 46 (health)? Many eye experts say you should follow the “20-20-20 rule”. This means taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something about 20 47 (foot) away—that’s about 6 metres. This gives your eyes a break and makes them change their focus (聚焦) 48 the screen near to you to something farther away. Make sure the screen is the right brightness, too. A screen that’s too bright 49 too dark will make your eyes tired. The idea is to 50 (great) reduce (减少) the blue light. And to help this, some companies 51 (begin) to sell blue light glasses a few years ago and they worked. Sitting at the right distance (距离) from the screen is also 52 good idea: you should sit at least 50 centimeters away. If you find you’re moving close to the screen and straining (过度使用) your eyes to see, you could try making the fonts (字体) on your screen 53 (large). 第六部分 阅读表达(共3小题；54题2分，55题2分，56题3分，满分7分) 请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。 “Only when I take the needle (针) out and touch the silk thread (丝线) do I feel fully comfortable,” said Zou Yingzi.

Su embroiderer s can make their works look like oil paintings or photos. They can stitch (绣) on both sides of a piece of silk at the same time. The pattern can be seen from both the front and the back. Silk is delicate (脆弱的). Embroiderers wash their hands often and use hand cream to keep their hands clean and soft. This way, the artwork won’t be damaged. Today, Su embroidery is loved by many people all over the world. Many visitors like to buy some embroidery pieces to take home after visiting Suzhou.
